| hagna | why is ubuntu so smart and upping wlan0 all the time? | 00:04 |
| deaddreamer | does wine simulate dx ?? | 00:04 |
| gerro | CorpusCallosum: might be bios options to control heat. Or your using too heavy a distro perhaps try xubuntu | 00:04 |

| myconid | deaddreamer: to some extent.. it isnt perfect.. crossover office does a little better. | 00:04 |
| shane634 | jodde: thanks my fans are nice | 00:05 |
| stefg | eyeRmonkey, that's not dangerous, but too high IMHO | 00:05 |
| deaddreamer | hmm | 00:05 |
| MrPink | because I changed something in Desktop Effects that doesnt allow me to drag arround windows anymore... any ideas? | 00:05 |

| smurfslayer | myconid - on that machine you can jumper which raid controller you want to use.. the lsi or an intel ich7... so i jumpered right now back to lsi logic | 00:05 |
| MrPink | myconid I have the ccsm installed | 00:05 |
| jodde | Sorry, less the 404 error. | 00:05 |
| jodde | What has it changed to? | 00:05 |
| eyeRmonkey | stefg, yeah. it feels hot to the touch compared to windows. sigh. i really don't want to switch to feisty. would a kernel recompile in gutsy be any help? | 00:05 |
| MrPink | myconid: if that is what you mean | 00:05 |
| NemesisD | hi guys, im about to *attempt* an upgrade to gutsy, i mae a tgz of my /home but at the end of the output it said "tar:file changed as we read it". Is the file still good or do i need to start over? | 00:06 |
| NemesisD | it literally happened at the very last alphabetical item in the dir | 00:06 |
| Bam1 | Where is the sources.list file? | 00:06 |
| myconid | MrPink: Go into ccsm and goto preferences, add a new profile, and reset it to defaults. | 00:06 |

| Pelo | !wifi | Meroigo__ | 00:07 |
| ubotu | Meroigo__: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 00:07 |
| stefg | eyeRmonkey, yes, i run a vanilla 2.6.23.1 and it's much better. But given the relatively low number of killer features in gutsy (zero?) running feisty with a well tested gnome might just be less work and more fun | 00:07 |
| Bam1 | thanks Pelo! | 00:07 |
| myconid | MrPink: but make sure move window (under window management) is checked off. | 00:07 |
| eyeRmonkey | stefg: also, would using the 64 bit version possibly solve my problem? or no? | 00:07 |
| Pelo | neztit1, don'T , just use the repos | 00:07 |
| gennui | ok, this really sucks... I am trying to use dpkg reconfig to generate an xorg.conf file, but it doesn't write *any* modelines in the file it generates | 00:07 |
| gennui | what am I doing wrong??? | 00:08 |
| myconid | gennui: do you have perms? | 00:08 |
| diego | sim | 00:08 |

| neztit1 | pelo: what u mean man?? | 00:08 |
| gennui | perms? | 00:08 |
| diego | Ola | 00:08 |
| Pelo | NemesisD, why don't you just move your /home folder to a seperate partition, should be safe enough there | 00:08 |
| myconid | permissions..access to the file.. are you root (or su'd) | 00:08 |
| eyeRmonkey | stefg: by vanilla, you mean generic? would i have to do a manual recompile to get a generic kernel? ... not sure what you mean by "well tested gnome". isn't there only one? | 00:08 |
| shane634 | gennui: permission | 00:08 |
| stefg | eyeRmonkey, no,i don't think that 64bit would make it better... it's a kernel-source/configuration probelm afaicsproble | 00:08 |

| NemesisD | Pelo, i'm going to do that when the upgrade fails | 00:08 |
| Pelo | !automatix > neztit1 check for a private message windows with instructions from ubotu | 00:08 |
| MrPink | myconid: I dont see where the move window is... but it seems to be working again.. that was a good idea... what did you mean with "move window" ? | 00:08 |
| NemesisD | Pelo, hence why i'm backing up my data | 00:08 |
| MrPink | myconid: or where exactly ? | 00:08 |
| Meroigo__ | Pelo > cannot find anything there I want | 00:09 |
| stefg | eyeRmonkey, by vanilla i mean taking the source from kernel.org, not from ubuntu | 00:09 |
| gennui | it writes an xorg.conf, it's just that file is useless because it has no modelines so it goes to failsafe | 00:09 |
| JebJoya | hey all, having a bit of an issue with a radeon 9600xt card post-7.10 upgrade not seeming to work with wine (seems to have no direct rendering), have installed driver from restricted drivers - any suggestions? | 00:09 |

| MrPink | Pelo: What ATI Cards are those drivers for, do you know ? | 00:10 |
| jodde | Use add/remove programs. | 00:10 |
| JebJoya | gerro: and how would i do that? | 00:10 |
| jodde | Select all open source. | 00:10 |
| gerro | JebJoya: wine is not handled by ubuntu, check #winehq | 00:10 |

| smurfslayer | myconid - dmesg doesn't show anything about lsi logic or raid... but what is really strange: lspci shows the Intel ICH7 raid controller instead of the lsi logic... but on the POST Screen of the server, i could enter the lsi logic raid tool and configure the raid. | 00:11 |

| JebJoya | gerro: I did, nothing, then went to #winehq, and suggested my video drivers aren't configured so needed to come here | 00:13 |

| stefg | eyeRmonkey, configuring a working kernel for your hardware takes some knowledge and experience. The easy way is installing feisty. the dirty, but rewarding way is to learn hoe to build a kernel. Don't expect success at first try | 00:14 |

| myconid | lm_t7: whats 'vb' ? | 00:19 |
| lm_t7 | virtual box | 00:19 |
| Jimdb | if this is installed by gutsy and everyone that installs gutsy needs to configure it, how come more ppl aren't asking that question? | 00:19 |

| whiteguysamurai | i tried looking for ics for ubuntu amd it's mostly cli driven. | 00:20 |
| SuicideSalmon | myconid, I'm just trying to get my head around leaving the computer on all day and connecting from campus, but I want other people to be able to leave things there without having to upload it to email (same network so it would be quick), but I don't want the hassle of setting up arbitrary passwords (bad enough having to remember an IP) for something that shouldn't affect the security | 00:20 |

| DogWater | anyone know how to reset the desktop to default? all of my fonts and evertything is huge now | 00:21 |
| fructose | Is there a better channel for asking about graphics issues? | 00:22 |
| myconid | SuicideSalmon: btw.. giving someone ssh access to your machine is a huge security risk. | 00:22 |
| Paul_UK | hey guys, i've just installed mplayer and video seems only to be a fraction of the screen. how can i make it bigger and full screen. Even when I choose full screen, it stays the same size! | 00:22 |
| myconid | fructose: google for em? check the forums? | 00:22 |
| fructose | myconid: Channel, I said. I've already tried searching. | 00:22 |
| Jimdb | pelo: found that...i can see that one might have to do that for say a removable drive but why would someone have to also do it for locating a file found in the ~ folder? | 00:23 |
| SuicideSalmon | myconid, sorry - I'm new to this stuff, but what's the difference between setting up an ftp server, or using filezilla to ssh in? And as for the security, is it not possible to give normal access to /home/guest only, and won't sudo take care of the rest of the commands? | 00:23 |
| Downix | hey-o | 00:23 |
| Paul_UK | Nevermind, i've worked it out. Its when I choose X11 (XImage/Shm). So using X11/Xv works, but I get a green screen. Any advice? | 00:23 |
| heatman | Hello. Could someone tell me how i can disable my onboard video card so that its stop conflivting with my nvidia card which freezes pc every 30 mins or so? | 00:23 |
| Downix | I am having an issue with my sons Ubuntu Feisty machine. | 00:24 |
| Shpoo1 | Well, I'm back with the same old problems. Still random freezes, sometimes just X, sometimes the Kernel, and I have to use PrntScrn+LeftAlt+RSEIUB to reboot. I've tried disabling CPU Scaling and Dual-core, upgraded then disabled Compiz, and searched and researched the hell out of Google, all to no avail. Anyone have the slightest idea how to diagnose? | 00:24 |
| Downix | I put in a new video card, now no X | 00:24 |
| thedefender | us AIGLX preinstalled on gutsy | 00:24 |
| lm_t7 | so myconid, if this thing actually isntalls which if it does im assuming hours later, will it be worth running? | 00:24 |
| thedefender | downix | 00:24 |
| lm_t7 | if it honestly takes that long to install | 00:24 |
| Downix | this is fun | 00:24 |
| Jimdb | pelo: i had to install the tracker program using synaptic. apparently during my upgrade it didn't install it by default. | 00:25 |
| thedefender | downix: run sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg | 00:25 |
| DogWater | hi when you change from normal to a large print theme why doesnt it change the fonts/etc back when you change back? thats super annoying | 00:25 |
| i_ | LTSP problems - can anyone help? | 00:25 |
| Shpoo1 | Is there anything I can do to catch errors as the system freezes? I went through everything in /var/logs, and only saw something related to CPU scaling. | 00:26 |
| stefg | Shpoo1, gutsy kernel? | 00:26 |
| DogWater | usually if you see an error related to cpu scaling right before your system crashes it means your mb and cpu are incompatble | 00:26 |
| nikolai | can someone tell me how to find a program that I installed from a deb package? its not showing up in the menus. | 00:26 |
| lm_t7 | is vmware the best recommended vm? over vb and vpc? | 00:26 |
| Shpoo1 | stefg: Yeah, fresh install, not upgrade. | 00:26 |
| DogWater | shpoo is this a self built machine? | 00:27 |
| Shpoo1 | DogWater: yup. :-) | 00:27 |
| stefg | Shpoo1, the gutsy kernel has issues. you might want to try to build your own or use feisty (-kernel) | 00:27 |
| cpt | quiestion: Im running ubuntu 7.10, and i got a intel 915gm display card. Im running video test in Cedega and i successful test openGl. but i fail 3d acceleration. Anyone able to help please? | 00:28 |
| DogWater | shpoo1 ensure that the specific stepping of your CPU is supported by your motherboard especially if you're using intel motherboard | 00:28 |
| nikolai | can someone tell me how to find a program that I installed from a deb package? its not showing up in the menus. | 00:28 |

| stefg | Shpoo1, sounds reasonable | 00:28 |
| briantumor | i'm trying to build an app, but it requires linux-src directory? | 00:28 |

| myconid | cassandra: just ask | 00:29 |

| cassandra | Alright. :) | 00:29 |
| DogWater | Shpool: easily get the model of the motherboard and the model of the cpu and see if they're compat, most likely the newer os is pushing the system harder which means its trying to address something it shouldnt be on the incompatable cpu | 00:29 |
| emmajane | briantumor: apt-cache search kernel | 00:29 |
| iobelix | hi. i am trying out kde and when i switch desktops, windows from other desktops display on the taskbar, this never happened on gnome. i tried taskbar and compiz settings but could not find anything. anybody know how to fix this? | 00:29 |

| briantumor | emmajane, i have 2.6.22-14-generic | 00:30 |
| cassandra | Ok, so, no minimize, close, maximize + borders on the windows. When I go to window under system -> window then it pops up a box that it can't configure unknown. | 00:30 |
| stefg | iobelix, #kubuntu | 00:30 |
| cassandra | I don't know how to fix it. | 00:30 |
| DogWater | there are 5 different Intel Pentium 4 3.2GHZ cpus, 3 versions of it were compatible with these machines we were building them with and 2 werent, it was a nightmare to figure it out | 00:30 |

| atouk_zug | does anyone know a command line package to check temps, etc? | 00:30 |

| Downix | Ok, no luck in getting this to start any gfx with the new vid card | 00:35 |
| myconid | nikolai: no idea.. did you check the docs? | 00:36 |

| cafuego | rat32: aye | 00:36 |
| myconid | Shpoo1: usually lockups are hardware .. or bad drivers (and therefor kinda hardware still). | 00:36 |
| Shpoo1 | I should've filed a bug report from the beginning, but at least now I have a list of thing's I've tried, so I'm going to file a report tonight | 00:36 |
| LjL | !info bcm43xx-fwcutter | rat32, read the link, it's explained | 00:36 |

| thedefender | yes screen and graphics wizard won't be fully operational til gutsy+1 | 00:36 |
| rat32 | cafuego: gee thanks, i will check it out | 00:36 |
| myconid | Shpoo1: What platform? (mobo+cpu) | 00:36 |
| arang2 | stefg: the problem isnt alsa the problem lays in vmware , cos peopel in different OS's report the same problem | 00:36 |
| cafuego | rat32: That should download a file, chop it up and dump the result in /lib/firmware | 00:36 |
| LjL | rat32: you obtain it from the repositories - like all other software | 00:36 |
| Jimdb | cassandra: if you install fusion-icon you can tell the system what window decorator to use. so you can tell it to use metacity | 00:36 |

| arang2 | stefg: im there they are as silent as a church in monday | 00:37 |
| rat32 | cafuego: if it doesnt work, should i just apt-get remove it ? | 00:37 |
| Jimdb | cassandra: tell it to use metacity as your window manager. and it will shift back to metacity's window decorator. | 00:37 |

| Pilgrim- | im running ubuntu 7.10, and i had my sound working fine, yesterday i was listening to music. turned the computer off, unplugged the keyboard and monitor and plugged them into another computer to test something, and then i plugged everything back in and i cant get the sound to work. i can do a test beep and it comes out the speakers, but when using xxms or vlc the sound doesnt play | 00:38 |
| Pilgrim- | any ideas? | 00:38 |
| scguy318 | Paul_UK: not always :P | 00:38 |
| cassandra | thedefender: yesok ty Jimdb :) | 00:38 |

| EvaLuaTe | hello | 00:39 |
| * worm_screw ada org indo kgk sih disini | 00:39 | |
| myconid | Shpoo1: bizzare.. i would say bad hardware.. you can file a bug report.. but i dont think youll get much help in all reality.. without some specifics. | 00:39 |
| arang2 | Paul_UK: Virtualbox requires u to make a mess to get bridged networking, u get NATed networking by default | 00:39 |
| scguy318 | Paul_UK: can it do snapshotting? and the USB is kinda fucked on it | 00:39 |
| DogWater | Shpoo1: disable cpuspeed? disable speedstep in the bios? this is a desktop, why do you want that anyway | 00:39 |
| gennui | why doesn't dpkg work to generate the xorg.conf??? | 00:39 |
| Paul_UK | scguy318 in my testing.... and im talking vmware server, not workstation or osx | 00:39 |
| EvaLuaTe | i can't find sshjail with apt-get, isn't it in the repository ? | 00:39 |
| Pici | !language | scguy318 | 00:39 |
| DogWater | it sounds like bad hardware to me as well | 00:39 |
| ubotu | scguy318: Please watch your language and topic, and keep this channel family friendly. | 00:39 |
| brand0con | anyone properly configure a soundblaster x-fi sound card? i dont think alsa supports the hardware and creative has released only a crappy 64 bit driver | 00:39 |
| jodde | Could somebody tell me what the new repository that corresponds to this one is: http://www.linex.org/sources/linex/debian/dists/cl/juegalinex/binary-i386/Packages.gz: 404 Not Found? | 00:39 |
| FunnyLookinHat | Question: If I am running Gnome (Ubuntu) and want to test KDE4, do I have to install kubuntu-desktop before I install the KDE4 testing packages? or can I just install the KDE4 testing packages? | 00:39 |
| scguy318 | PciI: sry | 00:39 |
| Paul_UK | arang2, lol its not a mess. not if you know what you are doing :P | 00:39 |
| DogWater | by now that box would've been in a pile on the floor where i work | 00:39 |
| cassandra | Oh, I had to do itOh! alt+tab doesn't seem to work :S | 00:39 |
| scguy318 | !info sshjail | 00:39 |
| bahadunn | guess I must upgrade manually then | 00:39 |
| Shpoo1 | I think I'm going to try a bunch of different hardware configurations, and try to install Gutsy on my wife and daughter's computers, swap out ram, check voltages, etc.... | 00:39 |
| ubotu | Package sshjail does not exist in gutsy | 00:39 |
| Pilgrim- | anyone have any suggestions for my sound issue? | 00:39 |
| Paul_UK | arrang2, it takes me under 1 min to get bridged networking and vms to work natively on my network | 00:39 |
| myconid | Shpoo1: can you try running it w/o a gui? | 00:39 |
| myconid | Shpoo1: and see if it stays up | 00:39 |
| arang2 | Paul_UK: im sure , but how secure is that?? | 00:40 |
| m0u5e | hmm is the command ifconfig eth0 down to disable my eth0 ? | 00:40 |
| myconid | Shpoo1: are you loading nvidia propriatary video drivers? | 00:40 |
| Jimdb | Pilgrim: i've noticed issues with more than one program using the sound device. in feisty i could play a dvd, play 4 divx, and play amarok and it would have the audio coming from all of them at once out the speakers. with gutsy i can only use one program that uses sound at a time. | 00:40 |
| sam1337 | unoobtu lol | 00:40 |
| thedefender | if your using gutsy cassendra why are you messing with emerald? | 00:40 |
| Shpoo1 | DogWater, good point, I never even thought about disabling it in the BIOS | 00:40 |
| thedefender | its buggy as hell | 00:40 |
| DogWater | I have Gutsy on my Dell m1330 laptop, my D975bx2 Dual core based desktop, and about 35 servers at work and none of them are doing that Shpoo | 00:40 |
| Pilgrim- | Jimdb, k thanks :( | 00:40 |
| JebJoya | hey, i seem to have a problem configuring my ATi driver post-7.10 upgrade - anyone able to help with that area? (more: "glxinfo|grep direct" gives: "direct rendering: No (If you want to find out why, try setting LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose)") | 00:40 |
| gordboy | so is there some reasonable explanation as to why neither update-manager or adept are capable of upgrading 7.04 to 7.10 ? is this some kind of BLOODY JOKE ? | 00:40 |
| Paul_UK | arang2, secure? as secure as vmware? | 00:40 |
| LjL | sam1337: do you have a support question? | 00:40 |
| Shpoo1 | myconid: at first I wasn't, then I tried them, now I'm not | 00:40 |
| stefg | FunnyLookinHat, if the packages are done right they pull all their dependencies, so not necessary to install kde3 before. but i would rather use avirtual machine for that. KDE4 is quite alpha and may break things | 00:40 |
| Pilgrim- | because i have _nothing_else open | 00:40 |
| Pilgrim- | when trying it | 00:40 |
| arang2 | Paul_UK: Maybe maybe not | 00:40 |
| myconid | Shpoo1: install something that stresses the cpu.. but dont run a gui.. see if it will stay up? | 00:41 |
| sam1337 | LjL nope my gutsy is working perfectly. | 00:41 |
| FunnyLookinHat | stefg, yeah... I've messed with it before and it's pretty god-awful... but that just means they need more bug reports : ) | 00:41 |
| LjL | gordboy: are you experiencing a bug when upgrading? if so, report at http://bugs.ubuntu.com | 00:41 |
| FunnyLookinHat | stefg, thanks though, that was my suspicion | 00:41 |
| wirechief | IntuitiveNipple i have a friend who claims that because he has windows xp pro he cannot resize the hd and make room for linux I have never heard of such a thing. i wonder why he cant do it. | 00:41 |
| Jimdb | Pilgrim: i consider it bad because i used to demo ubuntu for my customers and now I can't impress them with the awesome sound. | 00:41 |
| LjL | sam1337: then please keep your jokes, so to call them, for yourself | 00:41 |
| rat32 | i got E: bcm43xx-fwcutter: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1 | 00:41 |
| Paul_UK | arang2, i think you best explain where you are coming from. why bother have double natting? oh wait, i must explain myself. I use headless vm's as I dont use the GUI with virtualbox lol. | 00:41 |
| DogWater | Does anyone know how to reset the desktop visual options back to their default, i was messing around with the themes/etc and i selected the 'large print' theme and i switched back but it kept the SUPERFONTS and i'd rather just reset it if possible | 00:41 |
| stefg | FunnyLookinHat, vbox/vmware/qemu are your friends :-) | 00:41 |
| gennui | is there anyway I can get gutsy to reinstall X and regenerate a working xorg.conf? | 00:41 |
| Shpoo1 | myconid: good idea....does Folding@home have a linux application? lol | 00:41 |
| thedefender | anyone know a good wiki page for configuring the gutsy xorg.conf | 00:41 |
| rat32 | should i try rebooting and seeing if it worked or is that just bad ? | 00:41 |
| Shpoo1 | I'll give that a shot tonight too | 00:41 |
| cassandra | Jimdb: ther was no fusion-icon when I searched in synaptic, but there is a compiz-fusion... | 00:41 |

| LjL | gordboy: i'm not paid to advertize ubuntu, sorry. | 00:42 |
| DogWater | gordboy: Nobody is making you use it, and some how i'm pretty sure your students know how much of a douche you are already | 00:42 |
| arang2 | Paul_UK: sorry man, but i want to solve the Vmware problem, im sure we could argue till kingdom comes about this, im not gonna switch sorry | 00:43 |
| thedefender | lol | 00:43 |
| Jimdb | cassandra: it isn't in synaptic. go to google and search for fusion-icon install in gutsy | 00:43 |
| Paul_UK | arang2, im at a loss why you have an issue with vmware | 00:43 |

| myconid | mr_marvin: my hp4050 duplexes. | 00:43 |
| Paul_UK | arang2, you install it and then you tell it you want a virtual interface and then you assign the vms to that | 00:43 |
| scguy318 | gordboy: sudo apt-get update then attempt? | 00:43 |
| gordboy | DogWater: i didn't see you at debconf. in fact i don't recall seeing you at cern this summer | 00:43 |
| cassandra | ok ty Jimdb I'll do that :) | 00:44 |
| scguy318 | gordboy: seriously I'm feeling less inclined to find out the answer to your solution with that attitude | 00:44 |
| LjL | worm_screw: perhaps this might help https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothDialup | 00:44 |
| arang2 | Paul_UK: my problem with Vmware is that it reports /dev/dsp resource busy under gutsy | 00:44 |
| DogWater | Yeah I was too busy managing over 1100 servers and the network which supports them to go to conferences, my bad. | 00:44 |

| scguy318 | gordboy: ive seen suggestions to do a nice sed job on it, aka substitute feisty for gutsy, then dist-upgrade | 00:45 |
| gordboy | scguy318: i've done over 30 upgrades from feisty to gutsy since thursday. and NONE of them worked as advertised. it reminds me of fedora 7. another great failure in the annals of linux | 00:45 |
| gennui | repeat: how do I re-generate the install xorg.conf? dpkg reconfigure seems to totally fail at this task??? | 00:45 |
| bahadunn | no one knows about upgrading to 7.10 eh/ | 00:45 |
| mr_marvin | myconid: hp 5940 has no options in oo | 00:45 |
| bahadunn | ? | 00:45 |
| DogWater | Yes and Fedora 7 is not to be used for production machines.. | 00:45 |
| DogWater | are you serious? | 00:46 |
| cafuego | gennui: dpkg --reconfigure is only as good as its input eh. | 00:46 |
| LjL | gordboy: so it seems that right now you don't want *Ubuntu support*, you simply want (as you said) an explanation from Ubuntu management? then this is not the right channel. | 00:46 |
| scguy318 | gordboy: worked for me...anyway, you could attempt an alternative CD upgrade | 00:46 |
| thedefender | anyone know a good wiki page for configuring the gutsy xorg.conf | 00:46 |

| gordboy | scguy318: thanks. i think i know rather more about the subject of feisty -> gutsy than anyone here. and i'm really annoyed. but i didn't expect any better. so bye. and thanks for the gratuitous insults | 00:47 |
| DogWater | You know everything! | 00:47 |
| Paul_UK | arang2, well i cant speak for ubuntu, but for virtualbox and centos, what you are wanting works fine. I have centos5 host and windows xp sp2 guest and it works. | 00:47 |

| cafuego | gennui: it doesn't need to; just choose simple setup and give it the screen size and max resolution. That should do it. | 00:48 |
| DogWater | VMWare is nice because you dont have to manage it on server, the last time i used Xen (et, al) you had to manage everything on the host node | 00:48 |
| JebJoya | (sorry, forgot to identify wirechief_ can go back to pm) | 00:48 |

| thedefender | he is a douche and he left | 00:49 |
| DogWater | oh wait, maybe not | 00:49 |
| gennui | cafuego: already tried that, it won't load nv anymore | 00:49 |
| pazsion | nvidia card installion help wanted:: | 00:50 |
| scguy318 | thedefender: not really, the System -> Administration -> Screens and Graphics does make a slight mess of xorg.conf but in general | 00:50 |
| cafuego | gennui: Oh I see. You robably don't want nv anyway. | 00:50 |
| ozJames | G'day all I need a bit of help :) I have installed 7.10 takes a long time to boot compared to the 6.06i had installed .... when i turn the PC i get nothing but a blank screen until the login box no service loading log like i had on 606 anyone have any ideas .thanks | 00:50 |
| Paul_UK | arrang2, no idea. sorry cant be of any help. i hope you get a resolution tho. | 00:50 |
| xTheGoat121x | So.... | 00:50 |
| mneptok | pazsion: please stop repeating, and just tell us what you want. | 00:50 |
| scguy318 | thedefender: the xorg.conf concepts in Feisty remain basically the same | 00:50 |
| * cassandra hands Jimdb a cookie of happiness Y^_^Y | 00:50 | |
| gennui | cafuego: yes i very much do | 00:50 |
| scguy318 | !ask | pazsion | 00:50 |
| ubotu | pazsion: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :) | 00:50 |
| DogWater | anyway, unless anyone knows how to reset the 'appearances' preferences screen back to defaults in compiz, im out of here ;-) | 00:50 |
| cafuego | gennui: 'sudo apt-get install linxu-restricted-modules nvidia-glx-new' will give you the accelerated drivers. | 00:50 |
| IntuitiveNipple | Don't worry about gordboy he's always like that... I think we all know the type :) | 00:50 |
| arang2 | Paul_UK: do u know if it is possible to install Vbox concurrently with Ws6? | 00:50 |
| thedefender | we just need a little more support from ATI and NVIdia | 00:50 |
| Paul_UK | arang2, you can do it, but not recommended. Check their forums, as from memory there is a post asking about this. | 00:51 |
| gennui | cafuego: i had a working nvidia xorg.conf but screen&graphics hosed it | 00:51 |
| cassandra | !wireless | 00:51 |
| ubotu | Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 00:51 |
| PThomas | Hi, I just compiled apache2-2.6 from source, how can I make it so that it starts on boot? | 00:51 |
| Murrlin | help! my sound broke | 00:51 |
| xTheGoat121x | is it possible to get a false positive from system monitor? It shows processor usage @ nearly 100%... but when I open the list of open programs, none of them are pulling down that much CPU | 00:51 |
| DogWater | To be honest, and not to polish any apples, both of my nvidia cards worked great with the restricted drivers right off the bat | 00:51 |
| stefg | !boot | PThomas | 00:51 |
| ubotu | PThomas: Boot options: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions - To add/remove startup services, you can use the package 'bum', or update-rc.d - To add your own startup scripts, use /etc/rc.local - See also !grub and !dualboot - Making a boot floppy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto/BootFloppy - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SmartBootManagerHowto | 00:51 |
| Murrlin | can someone point me to a proper webpage? | 00:51 |
| arang2 | Paul_UK: how true is that USB is screwed in Vbox | 00:51 |
| Murrlin | umm | 00:51 |
| cafuego | gennui: Yes, so recreate it manually, via dpkg-reconfigure. | 00:51 |
| hydrogen | haha | 00:51 |
| DogWater | xTheGoat121x: are you showing processes running by all users or just you? | 00:51 |
| cafuego | gennui: it's not that hard. | 00:51 |
| thedefender | well ATI restricted is terrible | 00:51 |
| hydrogen | ubotu said bum | 00:51 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about said bum - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 00:51 |
| hydrogen | thats funny | 00:51 |
| pazsion | i've followed faqs and nvidia card isn't loaded anymore, i've turned off inel onboard and rebooted still deosn't work..or 3d chess doesn't work.. | 00:51 |
| thedefender | no AIGLX support | 00:51 |
| gennui | cafuego: dpkg-reconfigure doesn't generate a working file | 00:51 |
| xTheGoat121x | DogWater, all users... | 00:52 |
| Paul_UK | arang2, not true. USB guests are able to isolate it from the host. | 00:52 |
| Murrlin | when I run any one sound app, it runs but there's no sound output. running any second sound app gives me a 'soundcard error' | 00:52 |
| cie213 | what's the most active channel to learn about public key encryption? | 00:52 |
| scguy318 | thedefender: the latest latest has that, but I wouldn't advise installing it | 00:52 |
| cafuego | gennui: Then you're not giving it the right info. | 00:52 |
| cie213 | sorry to be off topic for a minute | 00:52 |
| arang2 | Paul_UK: can i pass USB devices to the guest like webcams printers, scanners and the like? | 00:52 |
| hydrogen | cie213: the google channel | 00:52 |
| pazsion | i've followed faqs and nvidia card isn't loaded anymore, i've turned off inel onboard and rebooted still deosn't work..or 3d chess doesn't work.. | 00:52 |
| thedefender | hmmm | 00:52 |
| DogWater | xTheGoat121x: eh, i dont ever use gnome for system administration i'm a shell guy. so i would tell you to open a shell and type sudo top and see what that says | 00:52 |
| scguy318 | cie213: #ubuntu-offtopic | 00:52 |
| Paul_UK | arang2, but you cant really compare WS6 to virtualbox lol | 00:52 |
| cie213 | haha thanks hydrogen really | 00:52 |
| thedefender | why no install | 00:52 |
| mneptok | DogWater: the Fonts tab in the Appearance prefpanel doesn't reset your fonts? | 00:52 |
| Paul_UK | not yet anyway ;) | 00:52 |
| gennui | cafuego: which info? | 00:52 |
| arang2 | Paul_UK: care to answer my previous question? | 00:52 |
| cie213 | how do i use this google channel you speak of? | 00:52 |
| DogWater | mneptok: oh i just didnt know if there was a way to just reset it... | 00:52 |
| bkingx | Can VMWareTools be installed on Gutsy server? | 00:52 |
| DogWater | mneptok: all of it. | 00:52 |
| Paul_UK | arang2, my ipod works, but havent checked my camera yet. | 00:53 |
| gennui | cafuego: it's a laptop | 00:53 |
| DogWater | and i was wondering why when you change the theme the font doesnt reset | 00:53 |
| pazsion | (07:51:55 PM) pazsion: i've followed faqs and nvidia card isn't loaded anymore, i've turned off inel onboard and rebooted still deosn't work..or 3d chess doesn't work.. | 00:53 |
| eido | xTheGoat121x: my system is also running between 99 and 100% usage...almost a standard install and I'm the only user | 00:53 |
| cie213 | kidding kidding | 00:53 |
| arang2 | Paul_UK: isochronous USB connections are possible? | 00:53 |
| gennui | cafuego: and when i look at the logs, it's failing to load nv | 00:53 |
| DogWater | eido: use top to see is really going on | 00:53 |
| mneptok | DogWater: you'd have to selectively delete GNOME settings files | 00:53 |
| cafuego | gennui: Any reason you don't want to sue `nvidia' instead? | 00:53 |
| Paul_UK | arang2, it allows me to do what I want. Why not grab a machine and test virtualbox, to see if its for you? | 00:54 |
| DogWater | mneptok ewws. alrighty i suppose i'll just mess with it until i get it the way i want, or if it annoys me enough i'll reformat | 00:54 |
| gennui | cafuego: nv is the name of the hardware driver | 00:54 |
| DogWater | mneptok: would be rather rad if they had a 'defaults' button though | 00:54 |
| xTheGoat121x | DogWater, well I run that command, and it still seems a bit high | 00:54 |
| mneptok | DogWater: and, if you care, htop > top | 00:54 |
| Paul_UK | arang2, Im not sure what purposes you want it for. So I cant say that it does all, since I dont use all of its features. | 00:54 |
| xTheGoat121x | DogWater, for what I'm running, that is | 00:54 |
| arang2 | Paul_UK: i might but im quite tired of reinstalling everything | 00:54 |
| cafuego | gennui: Yes. I know. There is another one, called 'nvidia' which is the one created by nvidia, and which gives you accelerated 3D support. | 00:54 |
| cassandra | http://www.linux-wlan.org/docs/wlan_adapters.html.gz lol I don't know if this is a problem or not. but... lol | 00:54 |
| DogWater | mneptok: im old, let me die in peace | 00:55 |
| pazsion | (07:51:55 PM) pazsion: i've followed faqs and nvidia card isn't loaded anymore, i've turned off inel onboard and rebooted still deosn't work..or 3d chess doesn't work.. | 00:55 |
| Paul_UK | well good luck :) | 00:55 |
| DogWater | xTheGoat121x: what process is using all of your cpu | 00:55 |
| cafuego | gennui: is there any reason you do not want to use the other accelerated driver? | 00:55 |

| pazsion | some help please? | 00:55 |
| gennui | cafuego: no, but that's what the dpkg-reconfigure xorg.conf is trying to do... and it does detect the nvidia | 00:55 |
| * cafuego blesses you | 00:55 | |
| scguy318 | pazsion: what's the question? | 00:55 |
| thedefender | katocalypse, STL represent | 00:55 |

| DogWater | im 28! in this line of work thats way too old :D | 00:56 |
| mneptok | DogWater: the problem with "restore to defaults" is that every distro, and vanilla GNOME itself, will have a different opinion of what that is. | 00:56 |
| pazsion | lol thanks for the blessing =P | 00:56 |
| scguy318 | pazsion: loaded like? | 00:56 |
| mneptok | DogWater: i'm 42. | 00:56 |

| eido | DogWater: crded is the process taking up 80 to 90% of my CPU...locating the top app on SourceForge | 00:56 |

| worm_screw | LjL: thank you for ur information...:) | 00:56 |
| DogWater | not sure i know what crded is | 00:56 |

| mneptok | gennui: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 00:56 |
| pazsion | i can't see it in hardare info originally it was there...and chess 3d mode still asks for opengl stuff which i've installed.. | 00:56 |
| gennui | mneptok: it doesn't generate a workign xorg.conf file | 00:57 |
| scguy318 | pazsion: i dunno, you have restricted installed? | 00:57 |
| thedefender | ok guys here is my thing | 00:57 |
| xTheGoat121x | DogWater, it switches around, but the one that seems to be consistently at the top is dbus-daemon... but even THAT is only eating about 5.5% CPU | 00:57 |
| mneptok | gennui: it should, unless you select non-sane options | 00:57 |
| eido | DogWater: it appears to be from the fps alien arena | 00:57 |
| isagani | automounting flash drives stopped working after upgrading to gutsy, can anyone help me? | 00:57 |

| DogWater | try closing that and see if the util goes down :D | 00:58 |

| crdlb | Flice, and run it with "ccsm" and make sure that the Place Windows plugin is checked | 01:26 |

| qman | hey, I'm having an issue with mounting smb shares | 01:32 |
| GigaClon | can anyone help me with this problem, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=3612547, otherwise im going to have to downgrade | 01:32 |
| fujin | Hi, I'm following this guide: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuMagazine/HowTo/LocalRepositoriesHowto to set up a local apt mirror. I've done this, and now I'd like to add newer versions of packages to my mirror. I understand this probably needs some package signing, but haven't been able to find any docs on this process | 01:32 |
| fujin | anyone have any ideas? | 01:32 |
| cvance | what's up qman? | 01:32 |
| qman | when I mount an smb share, it's ownership changes to root:root and permissions to 755 | 01:32 |
| oslo | hi, a friend of mine like to use his printer: BROTHER FAX 8350P but it seems it doen't supported... | 01:32 |
| qman | this is not acceptable for my purposes, I need a non-root user to have full access to the share | 01:33 |
| cvance | can you pass the option to mount | 01:33 |
| qman | how can I fix this? | 01:33 |
| xep_ | scguy318, you mean, that by setting in my computer connected to wifi hotspot, with only 443, 80 open : | 01:33 |
| cvance | -o uid=<uid> | 01:33 |
| guru | Detra: your best bet will be with the first one | 01:33 |
| Arafangion | qman: user and group masks. | 01:33 |
| Detra | ok | 01:33 |
| qman | thanks | 01:33 |
| cvance | mount -o uid=1000 | 01:33 |
| cvance | for example | 01:33 |
| Detra | I got that one unpacked too ... | 01:33 |
| xep_ | scguy318, ssh -D 6667 me@mydistantserver | 01:33 |
| qman | I assume gid works too? | 01:33 |
| guru | Detra: i can't reproduce the same error you are getting though | 01:33 |
| bluedog | does anyone know if there is a "clientless"(just uses a browser) ssl vpn server solution for linux? OpenVPN still requires a client | 01:33 |
| Arafangion | qman: Yes. | 01:33 |
| xep_ | scguy318, it will be okay to use irc from my hotspot ? | 01:33 |
| cvance | yes | 01:33 |
| Flice | crdlb: ah.. actually, compiz wasn't running. now that I've run it, the problem still exists | 01:33 |
| crdlb | :/ | 01:34 |
| AlienFu | When I tried installing gusty the update manager said there was a gnome-themes error, then an ubnutu-desktop error now I cant start ubunut except in recovery mode. Any one got any ideas? | 01:34 |
| Detra | guru, this is to cry about ... this is a clean installation ... Though not anymore ... upgraded it yesterday ... I dl build-essentials and also gcc and stuff like that ... | 01:34 |
| crdlb | Flice, you can try a different placement mode (click on the place windows icon in ccsm) | 01:34 |
| xep_ | scguy318, ? | 01:34 |
| qman | thanks, that worked perfectly | 01:34 |
| Ex-Cyber | how long am I supposed to wait for tracker to stop hammering my disk? | 01:34 |
| Detra | guru, anything I'm missing ? | 01:34 |
| scguy318 | xep_: sure | 01:35 |
| scguy318 | xep_: your syntax is wrong tho | 01:35 |
| databuddy | hmm | 01:35 |
| xep_ | scguy318, is that so simple ?? | 01:35 |
| guru | Detra: if you have a guest account that i can log into i'll see what i can do otherwise it may take me a bit to get to where you are | 01:35 |
| scguy318 | xep_: well, your forward is fine | 01:35 |
| dramman | If I want to run a web server from my computer, but also occasionally use XWindows/whatever to browse the internet and perhaps even Open Office, should I install Server or Desktop? | 01:35 |
| databuddy | ok i have a bunch of proggies listed in my menu from a previous install. [i reused the /home directory] | 01:35 |
| Detra | guru, you mean ssh ? | 01:35 |
| scguy318 | xep_: though you'd be better off selecting a random high port :P | 01:35 |
| Not_Sure | This is just a kind reminder: I have a question about the bash command that would list all usb devices attached to my machine including their /dev designators and other information (e.g. Vendor ID). I welcome any genuine help. | 01:35 |
| mindrape | bluedog - like VNC? | 01:35 |
| xep_ | scguy318, why did all people tell me i would have to do some openvpn, or some vtun, or some other complicated tools ? | 01:35 |
| databuddy | but ive absolutely no intensions of reinstalling all those apps | 01:35 |
| guru | Detra: yes. but hang on a second though | 01:36 |
| scguy318 | xep_: don't know, I'm not them | 01:36 |
| databuddy | how can i clean that up? | 01:36 |
| Detra | guru, ok | 01:36 |
| xep_ | scguy318, my syntax is wrong ? | 01:36 |
| scguy318 | xep_: its not | 01:36 |
| scguy318 | xep_: basically you point your clients to the SOCKS proxy on 127.0.0.1:the port you specified | 01:36 |
| guru | i didn't have the ieee80211-source package installed | 01:36 |
| guru | Detra: are you on a 64 bit machine or 32? | 01:36 |
| Detra | guru, 32 | 01:36 |
| bluedog | mindrape: more like a checkpoint or cisco solution, that lets you tunnel other services on your network, and lets you hairpin out to the internet. | 01:36 |
| xep_ | scguy318, with that solution will i have to change something somewhere in xchat for example ? | 01:36 |
| Flice | crdlb: nothing changes. no luck | 01:36 |
| Detra | guru, laptop | 01:36 |
| xep_ | (tell there is a proxy) | 01:36 |
| guru | Detra: me building the binary for you won't do much good then | 01:37 |
| mindrape | hair pin out to the internet? | 01:37 |
| mindrape | what in the world are you talking about? | 01:37 |
| Detra | guru, why's that ? | 01:37 |
| guru | Detra: a 64 bit module won't work on a 32 bit machine | 01:37 |
| chetnick | hey guys i just did upgrade to gutsy, my fonts are all different now, kind of ugly. Any ideas how to fix this? | 01:37 |
| bluedog | mindrape: when data goes out the same network interface it came in on | 01:37 |
| Detra | guru, well would that matter if you did it through ssh on my computer ? | 01:37 |
| mindrape | NAT? | 01:38 |
| guru | Detra: no | 01:38 |
| xep_ | scguy318, what is not so good in ssh -D 6667 me@mydistantserver ?? | 01:38 |
| dzer0 | hello | 01:38 |
| scguy318 | xep_ nothing is wrong | 01:38 |
| xep_ | scguy318, why did you speak about a high random port ? | 01:38 |
| bluedog | mindrape: no not really | 01:38 |
| scguy318 | xep_ just my personal preference, your command is fine | 01:38 |
| Detra | guru, So we can just do that, right ??? It doesn't matter anyways ... there's no personal information and so on on this machine right now ... so no need for trust :P | 01:38 |

| cvance | pazion to do that you can "cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep EE" | 01:42 |
| scguy318 | xep_: because you have to set the FTP client to point to the SOCKS proxy server | 01:42 |

| xep_ | scguy318, with the standard ftp command, is it possible ? | 01:43 |

| databuddy | installed menu and menu-xdg and deleted .local but no help | 01:43 |
| Detra | guru, you got my pm ? | 01:43 |
| scguy318 | cvance: programs have to explicitly add support for SOCKS in order to be able to understand and use it | 01:43 |

| pazsion_ | lol | 01:55 |
| unzzi | eido: no, super+E is fine. However alt+tab does the same to windows. All white except title bar. | 01:55 |
| ALnovice | Was able to ADD Printer successfully and printer appears in printer dialog box. But when I go to print, nothing happens. Print job just stays in queue. Also have canon 850 which was automatically rercognized by 7.10 and prints properly | 01:55 |
| Some_Person | Can you install Gutsy with Wubi? | 01:55 |
| scguy318 | eno___: not all that good you could also do | 01:55 |

| Downix | How is Ubuntu for clustering? | 01:57 |
| qman | Counter Strike Source used to work in WINE when I had a 7600GT, but doesn't since I upgraded to an 8600GTS, my guess is it's the new drivers | 01:57 |
| eido | unzzi: I have installed on both and nVidia seems to write better drivers..are they the restricted drivers? | 01:58 |
| Nocivo | XD | 01:58 |

| fujin | Hi, I'm following this guide: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuMagazine/HowTo/LocalRepositoriesHowto to set up a local apt mirror. I've done this, and now I'd like to add newer versions of packages to my mirror. I understand this probably needs some package signing, but haven't been able to find any docs on this process | 01:58 |
| fujin | anyone have any ideas? | 01:58 |
| Some_Person | ok | 01:58 |

| eno__ | scguy318: snippet or not, I appreciate the grep idea :) | 01:59 |
| scguy318 | !ask | darioco | 02:00 |
| dystopianray | gary_inNYC, should be fine as long as you don't use compiz | 02:00 |
| scguy318 | oops | 02:00 |
| bmk789 | is bulletproof-x supposed to be integrated into the gutsy liveCD? | 02:00 |
| scguy318 | eno____: np | 02:00 |
| ubotu | darioco: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :) | 02:00 |
| unzzi | eido: Yes, the newest ones that just got out today I think 8.42.3. Everything else seems to be smooth though. I take it this isn't a compiz problem but rather ATI driver problem then? | 02:01 |
| robertfisk | how can i use more than one server in xchat ( where do i add servers to the line at the left) ? sry . total linux n00b | 02:01 |
| pazsion_ | sigh afk - planet in peril.. plays all night... | 02:01 |
| TheHackMan | I keep seeing Can not find 'flashplugin-nonfree' whenever I try to install a needed plugin for Firefox(using Ubuntu 7.10) | 02:01 |
| gary_inNYC | really? so compiz-fusion as is now is shotty with ATI atm? | 02:01 |
| qman | robert_, Xchat > New... > Server Tab | 02:01 |
| scguy318 | gary_inNYC: i think Compiz 0.3 has a bug which screws up the latest fglrx | 02:01 |
| jing | hi, anyone know about the chinese input method named fctix? I have installed it, but it is invisible and I dont know how to call it | 02:01 |
| scguy318 | gary_inNYC: 0.6 has it resolved | 02:01 |
| gary_inNYC | k thx again scguy318 | 02:02 |
| dystopianray | gary_inNYC, you have to use xgl if you want compiz | 02:02 |
| dystopianray | gary_inNYC, or get the very latest bleeding edge driver which supports aiglx | 02:02 |
| rob | anyone know what is causing the ugly osd text at the bottom of my screen, I suspect something to do with libnotify/libosd.. | 02:02 |
| qman | robertfisk, Xchat > New... > Server Tab | 02:02 |
| gary_inNYC | kk | 02:02 |
| dystopianray | is anyong here using the new ati driver with aiglx? | 02:03 |
| LordZack | how do i open a .chm file? | 02:03 |
| gary_inNYC | you think the automated restricted drivers should work? | 02:03 |
| tarelerulz | My computer , computer just started doing this. I leave it on for hours or a bit sometimes and get just freezes and I can't get it to do anything is that because I leave it on and it over heats | 02:03 |
| robertfisk | thanks :) | 02:03 |
| dystopianray | gary_inNYC, the ones with gutsy do not support aiglx | 02:03 |
| databuddy | hey anyone know how the alternate cd forces vga size? | 02:03 |
| qman | gary_inNYC, the automated restricted drivers have worked on half the machines I tried | 02:03 |
| tvkid | tarelerulz: probably bad memory or hard disk | 02:03 |
| chetnick | i just did upgrade to gutsy, my fonts are all different now, kind of ugly. Any ideas how to fix this? | 02:04 |
| gary_inNYC | k thanks for the info all | 02:04 |
| scguy318 | LordZack: gnochm | 02:04 |
| databuddy | that vgaframebuffer stuff | 02:04 |
| tvkid | tarelerulz: run memtest86 and whatever hd util depending on your hd brand | 02:04 |
| dystopianray | gary_inNYC, an aiglx supporting driver was released within the last 24 hours | 02:04 |
| LordZack | gnochm is it on the repository? | 02:04 |
| eido | unzzi: there seems to be way more problems with ATI ones, but #compiz-fusion channel is dedicated to compiz-fusion ...use to be #ubuntu-effects but redirects you to the compiz channel but I would guess most users there run ubuntu | 02:04 |
| qman | the automated drivers worked without compiz on my ati radeon 200M, and didn't work at all on an nvidia quadro fx 560 | 02:05 |
| qman | but did work on my geforce 4 and geforce 8600gts with compiz | 02:05 |
| tarelerulz | tvkid , I will do that . | 02:05 |
| ALnovice | Can not print to Laserjet 1100 in gutsy. Was able to add printer, but jobs sent to it just remain in queue. Also have an attached canon 850 which wa automatically recognized by gutsy and which prints fine. Laserjet worked w/ 7.04 Live CD, but doesn't work w/ installed 7.10. Any thoughts? | 02:05 |
| qman | when they do work, they're remarkably simple | 02:06 |
| unzzi | Does XChat have any way to filter certain messages? Like joins, parts etc. Getting overwhelmed by the spam... | 02:06 |
| kousotu | is there any way to block an update? | 02:06 |
| sko0zy | Where can i get the gstreamer mp3 plugin ?? | 02:06 |
| dystopianray | qman, the quadro should work with nvidia-glx-new in gutsy | 02:06 |
| Odd-rationale | !mp3 | 02:06 |
| ubotu | For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats | 02:06 |
| eido | qman: I think those are the generic drivers that are in linux but it takes a little longer to get the drivers since dev have to figure out the cards | 02:06 |
| chetnick | and my compiz got screwed up | 02:06 |
| reya276 | quick question, how can I copy this directory "Joomla_1.0.10-Stable-Full_Package" to /var/www | 02:06 |
| kousotu | sko0zy: just try to play an MP3, and use both updates | 02:07 |
| qman | dystopianray, the driver was found and installed, but the display refused to work with it | 02:07 |
| robertfisk | sko0zy - in the add\remove tab oin applications | 02:07 |
| m4r71x | reya276: cp "joomla..." /var/www/ | 02:07 |
| qman | dystopianray, downloading the drivers from nvidia and compiling them did work, however | 02:07 |
| dystopianray | reya276, sudo cp -r "Joomla_1.0.10-Stable-Full_Package" /var/www | 02:07 |
| pazsion_ | so if i d/l envy files and some how install them.. reboot and...x goes blah... | 02:07 |
| reya276 | m4r71x: thanks | 02:07 |
| MenZa | !envy | pazsion_ | 02:07 |
| ubotu | pazsion_: 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! | 02:07 |
| tarelerulz | tvkid , I just run that program to test my memory . | 02:08 |
| m4r71x | reya276: np | 02:08 |
| m4r71x | hey guys | 02:08 |
| pazsion_ | wow | 02:08 |
| eido | qman: yeah I had to use the restricted drivers to get an X600 to work the open source drivers were not capable yet...though the open source are much better when they figure them out | 02:08 |
| m4r71x | have a question | 02:08 |
| m4r71x | im installing ubuntu with xinerama | 02:08 |
| pazsion_ | cool | 02:08 |
| m4r71x | and it asks me for fb0 (framebuffer) | 02:08 |
| pazsion_ | um.. qudro 600 hopefully | 02:08 |
| m4r71x | Im having a couple of ubuntus | 02:08 |
| qman | eido, the restricted driver package didn't work on this system, but compiling them using nvidia's download did work | 02:09 |
| pazsion_ | rest are i810 onboard .. | 02:09 |
| m4r71x | but cant see in /dev/fb0 | 02:09 |
| qman | was still fairly simple, just had to install build-essential and run the script | 02:09 |
| m4r71x | how can I make fb devices appear? | 02:09 |
| frozenflame22 | i hope this is the right place to ask this... i've got a few questions about hardware... i have fairly good hardware firewalls in my modem and my router (separate pieces of equipment), and I have two questions about these... 1) is there any problem with running two hardware firewalls at the same time, and 2) how do i configure one or both so that i can use irc? (currently both are off, could not get irc to work otherwise) | 02:09 |
| pazsion_ | contant updates are no problem all have cd-r | 02:09 |
| AlienFu | anyone: when I try t installl gnome-themes_2.20 I get an error that says: gtk-update-icon-cache: symbol lookup error: /user/lib/libgdk_pixbuf-2.0.so.0: undefined symbol: g_once_init_enter_impl | 02:09 |
| m4r71x | frozenflame22: about 1.- theres no problem till ytou can manage both of them | 02:10 |
| coreymanshack | to me... wine sucks... any alternatives? | 02:10 |
| AnAlien8me | my graphics card supports stupidly high resolutions(like 2000x1700 or something) and my monitor can do 1280x1024, yet when i try and change my resolution above 1024*768 i get no picture, whats wrong? | 02:10 |
| pazsion_ | have you tried it yeat? running two HW FW | 02:10 |
| m4r71x | frozenflame22: 2.- open port 6667 tcp por irc | 02:10 |
| qman | frozenflame22, multiple firewalls can work, but it's just generally more trouble than it's worth | 02:10 |
| qman | frozenflame22, you need to make exceptions in each firewall for every program/port set you need | 02:10 |
| reya276 | m4r71x: I keep getting an error | 02:11 |
| dgdghgdyhfgr | hi | 02:11 |
| eido | AnAlien8me: sometimes I had to edit xorg.conf manually for it to display higher resolutions | 02:11 |
| pazsion_ | then how to you aplly 7 layerrs lol | 02:11 |
| * coreymanshack wonders ab out WINE alternatives | 02:11 | |
| dgdghgdyhfgr | any one from iowa???? | 02:11 |
| hydrogen | !ot | dgdghgdyhfgr | 02:11 |
| ubotu | dgdghgdyhfgr: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! | 02:11 |
| tonyyarusso | dgdghgdyhfgr: Try in #ubuntu-iowa | 02:11 |
| eido | AnAlien8me: just make a backup of it before playing around | 02:11 |
| dgdghgdyhfgr | ok | 02:11 |
| pazsion_ | sweet! | 02:11 |
| reya276 | every time I try to do this: root@reya276-desktop:/home/reya276/Downloads# cp joomla /var/www | 02:11 |
| LifeNomad | The network manager in buntu with the VPN support is so intuitive....they need to work on that. | 02:12 |
| robertfisk | does putty work with ubuntu or is there a similar program out there ? | 02:12 |
| reya276 | I get this error: cp: omitting directory `joomla' | 02:12 |
| scguy318 | robertfisk: ssh | 02:12 |
| AnAlien8me | eido, the correct resolutions for my monitor are listed on the change resolution program, but when i test one, it goes gray and i dont get a picture | 02:12 |
| dystopianray | reya276, cp -r | 02:12 |
| LifeNomad | robertfisk: Putty works | 02:12 |
| attackdecay | anyone have an opinion or idea regarding what's the most 'ubuntu-friendly' pda? | 02:12 |
| robertfisk | ah . good . thanks | 02:12 |
| access_d | so has anyone figured out/solved the problem with nvidia cards and gutsy only loading in 800x600? | 02:12 |
| tonyyarusso | reya276: use -r when copying directories | 02:12 |
| qman | reya276, cp -r | 02:12 |
| attackdecay | namely something that can sync with evolution, pref. w/ bluetooth, etc etc | 02:12 |
| LifeNomad | Does anyone else hate the network manager? | 02:12 |
| perlfan | whats up with the missing packages in gutsy? | 02:13 |
| Odd-rationale | LifeNomad: I love it. | 02:13 |
| pazsion_ | so how do i get my nvidia card working, and then think about getting future updates easier for everyone... | 02:13 |
| LifeNomad | Odd-rationale: Have you tried the VPN? | 02:13 |
| dystopianray | perlfan, what missing packages? | 02:13 |
| LjL | nobody thinks using *-a* when copying directories is an even better idea? ;) | 02:13 |
| tonyyarusso | perlfan: you'll have to be a lot more specific than that. | 02:13 |
| qman | LifeNomad, I hate that it doesn't work with my school's retarded wifi scheme | 02:13 |
| LifeNomad | qman: How so? | 02:13 |
| attackdecay | LifeNomad: yes, and my number one reason is that it's VPN config section is unavailable when not using 'roaming mode' | 02:13 |
| dystopianray | LjL, only if you want to preserve permissions | 02:13 |
| tonyyarusso | LjL: depends what you're using it for really... | 02:13 |
| qman | they use the cisco PEAP protocol without certificates on WEP | 02:13 |
| LifeNomad | attackdecay: I TOTALLY agree! | 02:13 |
| qman | networkmanager can't manage that | 02:13 |
| perlfan | dystopianray: I search for things like qemu or cvs in synaptic and they're not listed | 02:14 |
| perlfan | do I have to add a third party src? | 02:14 |
| LifeNomad | hmm, I am glad mine only uses ciso VPN | 02:14 |
| abbot | is there a good program to convert wma to mp3, that's faster than one track at a time using audacity? | 02:14 |
| qman | I've never been able to get linux online on that stupid wifi network | 02:14 |
| dystopianray | perlfan, no they should be there, check your enabled repos | 02:14 |
| LifeNomad | It took me like 35 mins to get on mine today.... | 02:14 |
| attackdecay | networkman works great for me until i end up at my folks place for a few weeks and have to plug straight into their router and use a static ip... meaning roaming mode 'off' | 02:14 |
| perlfan | k | 02:14 |
| eido | AnAlien8me: the horizontal and vertical synch was incorrectly detected on one of my installs I had to keep guessing them ...supposidly you can damage the monitor if its a lcd if you enter it incorrectly but Dell didn't have any documentation available | 02:14 |
| LiMaO | hey, my taskbar is showing stuff from all the desktops.. how do i make it so that it only shows the applications running on that specific desktop? | 02:14 |
| dystopianray | qman, I've used networkmanager successfully with PEAP + WPA2 | 02:14 |
| attackdecay | and now no vpn... unless i use the wrt54gs router... and once i do that, because they live in bumfuck montana, i get total shit upload | 02:14 |
| access_d | so has anyone figured out/solved the problem with nvidia cards and gutsy only loading in 800x600? | 02:14 |
| LifeNomad | attackdecay: Do you use wifi? | 02:14 |
| Flannel | perlfan: cvs is in the repositories (in main) as is qemu, but it is in universe, so if you haven't enabled that, you wont see it. | 02:14 |
| attackdecay | so i've been just f'ing around switching back and forth for a week now | 02:15 |
| LjL | abbot: keep in mind that sort of conversation always loses some [much] quality. but try soundconverter | 02:15 |
| Flannel | !language | attackdecay | 02:15 |
| ubotu | attackdecay: Please watch your language and topic, and keep this channel family friendly. | 02:15 |
| qman | dystopianray, my school's network is not WPA | 02:15 |
| attackdecay | oops | 02:15 |
| attackdecay | sorry | 02:15 |
| qman | dystopianray, it's WEP | 02:15 |
| attackdecay | won't happen again | 02:15 |
| LifeNomad | But you have wifi? | 02:15 |
| qman | dystopianray, and it won't do PEAP + WEP | 02:15 |
| LifeNomad | Why are you "plugging in" | 02:15 |
| attackdecay | LifeNomad: i was.. but i've upgraded to gutsy and need to recompile madwifi (macbook c2d) | 02:15 |
| abbot | LjL. thanks. it's not for me and i'm sure this guy isn't going to care. his music is crappy anyway. haha. | 02:15 |
| perlfan | dystopianray: where do I do that exactly? | 02:15 |
| LifeNomad | attackdecay: Oh macbook...ahh I see | 02:15 |
| LifeNomad | attackdecay: But you can "manually configure" your wifi and take it off roaming | 02:16 |
| qman | also, has NetworkManager fixed the issue with not working on ra0 cards? | 02:16 |
| qman | I haven't had time to upgrade my system with one of those in it | 02:16 |
| LifeNomad | qman: I am not sure of that | 02:16 |
| pazsion_ | jebus... east US dude from iowa | 02:16 |
| attackdecay | LifeNomad: and madwifi still has a bug that is really a bother with my wifi shipset | 02:16 |
| attackdecay | chipset | 02:16 |
| tarelerulz | sudo reboot | 02:16 |
| LifeNomad | I am just glad my netgrear Wg511T works | 02:16 |
| perlfan | Flannel: where do I enable the repos? | 02:16 |
| dystopianray | perlfan, you can check your repos in /etc/apt/sources.list, i think, i'm not at home | 02:17 |

| qman | I even tried using wpasupplicant manually to connect to my school's wifi, never managed to get it working | 02:17 |
| LifeNomad | attackdecay: Well even on my linksys router....with no encryption and DHCP....I cannot connect until I go off of roaming.... | 02:17 |
| pazsion_ | um, can u make them indipendant...-i'm soo greeen | 02:17 |

| pazsion_ | lol why disable beep? | 02:19 |
| d0ll4 | robertfisk: yes | 02:19 |
| darioco | anyone?? | 02:19 |
| bmk789 | ?!?! bulletproof x seems more like bulleted x on the liveCD | 02:19 |
| attackdecay | LifeNomad: yeah, windows file sharing with a m$ vpn | 02:19 |
| attackdecay | directly in nautilus | 02:19 |
| bmk789 | they wont pull up anything on 23 of my machines | 02:19 |
| m1ke_l | d0ll4: to bad it doesn't work for me! | 02:19 |
| wers | what's the keyboard shortcut for "open location" again? :) | 02:19 |
| Detra | guru, | 02:19 |
| LifeNomad | attackdecay: Yea, I can connect to other peoples wifi in this building, except my own....have to go roaming | 02:19 |
| hydrogen | why is it m$ but not o$ X ? | 02:19 |
| pazsion_ | gahhh chatter | 02:19 |
| gribouille | hi kids, how r u ? | 02:19 |
| attackdecay | i'm actually trying to figure out which pda is best for syncing and playing nice with ubuntu | 02:19 |
| attackdecay | o$x, same thing in mybook | 02:19 |
| attackdecay | i like that ;] | 02:20 |
| LifeNomad | no* roaming | 02:20 |
| Pici | !offtopic | 02:20 |
| ubotu | #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! | 02:20 |
| pazsion_ | inspired.. haha | 02:20 |
| d0ll4 | m1ke_l : sorry to hear that.. i was fighting with ati's drivers awhile ago.. i bought an nvidia ;) | 02:20 |
| Flannel | perlfan: Ah, Uh, I know there's a GUI method in xubuntu, but I'm not familiar. You can just edit your sources.list, gksu mousepad /etc/apt/sources.list | 02:20 |
| pazsion_ | nvidia problems!! | 02:20 |
| attackdecay | LifeNomad: to be quite honest, my networkmanger troubles, save the 'no vpn while off roaming' thing, all worked themselves out without too much fuss.. at this point i can't honestly remember exactly what i did to get things smooth | 02:20 |
| pazsion_ | *cough cough* | 02:20 |
| LifeNomad | Can anyone tell me why I have to go roaming to connect to unencrypted, open wifi? | 02:20 |

| AlienFu | anyone: when I try t installl gnome-themes_2.20 I get an error that says: gtk-update-icon-cache: symbol lookup error: /user/lib/libgdk_pixbuf-2.0.so.0: undefined symbol: g_once_init_enter_impl | 02:21 |
| varun0 | does anyone know where I can grab a deb for the emerald theme manager? | 02:21 |
| LifeNomad | attackdecay: hmm, mine are still that way....oh well | 02:21 |
| lm_t7 | i cant figure out how to instal vmware tools | 02:21 |
| Flannel | perlfan: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/CommandLine More or less. That page should be "via text editor" not necessarily via command line | 02:21 |
| Dan_L | Dumb question: I'm a complete n00b. Should I even screw around with this text installer? Or should I give up on the Linux thing? | 02:21 |
| LifeNomad | Is there an ubuntu networking IRC channel? | 02:21 |
| pazsion_ | gah.. nvidia problems.. install 5500..quadro 600? | 02:21 |
| hydrogen | you shouldn't have a text installer.. | 02:22 |
| Flannel | Dan_L: text installer is super easy. Its just a GUI made up of text instead of graphics | 02:22 |
| qman | Dan_L, the alternate install CD is fairly simple | 02:22 |
| bmk789 | Dan_L: go for it, we can coach you along | 02:22 |
| qman | Dan_L, it's all menu based | 02:22 |
| qman | Dan_L, it just doesn't have X running | 02:22 |
| Flannel | Dan_L: It asks the same questions, you just don't use a mouse, you use a keyboard to select things. | 02:22 |
| Detra | pazsion_, didn't you get it to work ? | 02:22 |

| pazsion_ | lol detra, was warneed againstst it lol | 02:23 |
| LifeNomad | Darn, there needs to be a buntu networking channel | 02:23 |
| attackdecay | LifeNomad: i tell ya tho, i think they'll whip network manager into shape in the near future, for what it is, its pretty good | 02:23 |
| Detra | pazsion_, why ? | 02:23 |
| gluttony | im having a hard time getting a terminal session to appear transparent on my desktop. im going by this website>>http://ubuntugeek.com/how-to-create-a-transparent-terminal-session-as-your-desktop-background.html | 02:23 |
| pazsion_ | i have no idea | 02:23 |
| attackdecay | agreed LifeNomad | 02:23 |
| LifeNomad | attackdecay: I will agree, its alright, just needs some work | 02:23 |
| d0ll4 | m1ke_l: you could wait another month and check if the next ati/amd rls is fixing your prob.. as you have waited 13 months for aiglx another one wouldnt hurt i think ;) | 02:23 |
| Dan_L | Hmmmm. Ok. But does it do the exact same thing? The reason I ask: I had planned out this vista/ubuntu 7.10 dual boot idea based on the premise that a repartition would not be required - as the live CD does it by itself. Not like I'm opposed to doing a partition, I'm just making sure I'm not going to get in...ahem....over my head | 02:23 |
| LifeNomad | :) | 02:23 |
| pazsion_ | it was like a flood... | 02:23 |
| pazsion_ | lol | 02:23 |
| attackdecay | LifeNomad: there are some things that are way better, imho, than the way other 'popular' os's work | 02:23 |
| Detra | pazsion_, I found out that it worked for me ... | 02:23 |
| bmk789 | !botsnack | 02:24 |
| ubotu | Yum! Err, I mean, APT! | 02:24 |
| Detra | pazsion_, I don't think there's anything to worry about ... | 02:24 |
| Flannel | Dan_L: Both the liveCD and the alternate CD would require a repartition to install. Unless you're talking about the wubi thing, which I'm personally unfamiliar with | 02:24 |
| pazsion_ | well how do i install it if i get it d/led? | 02:24 |
| LifeNomad | attackdecay: Oh yea, Linux Mint's old network manager sucked so bad, but with the new one...it still needs work. | 02:24 |
| pazsion_ | can we start a PM detra.. eyes are tired.. | 02:24 |
| Dan_L | Flannel, Interesting. There seem to be many different interpretations on that one. Weird. Ok. | 02:24 |
| gluttony | can someone help me with this guide? http://ubuntugeek.com/how-to-create-a-transparent-terminal-session-as-your-desktop-background.html | 02:25 |
| bmk789 | who maintains the bot's factoids? | 02:25 |
| dresal | gluttony: what problems do you have with it? | 02:25 |
| dresal | gluttony: have you tried another guide? | 02:25 |
| gluttony | dresal, it just doesnt work. nothing happens | 02:25 |
| dresal | gluttony: your issue isn't ubuntu determinant, it's terminal or DE determinant | 02:26 |
| Flannel | Dan_L: Different interpretations on what? Whether a repartition is required to install? It will be with any official installation method. Wubi is unofficial, but will have you ubuntu live inside a windows partition, from what I understand. | 02:26 |
| varun0 | is emerald in the gutsy repos? | 02:26 |
| dresal | gluttony: go to #gnome | 02:26 |
| lm_t7 | where can i get dsl distro from? | 02:26 |
| bmk789 | varun0: yes | 02:26 |
| tonyyarusso | lm_t7: That's offtopic for an Ubuntu channel... | 02:26 |
| wirechief | lm_t7: www.distrowatch.com | 02:26 |
| lm_t7 | it is but someone from here told me to get it for my laptop | 02:26 |
| trialanderror | Hello! Is there any possibilty to write script/application that automatically clicks button when window opens? I need to automatize one task, but it's impossible - window pop up and asks for confirmation (and there are no command line options to prevent this). It would be great if it would be possible to automatically fill in some text fields, but it's optional - it's the confirmation dialog which stops everything.. | 02:26 |
| lm_t7 | so i thought it would be good to ask where to get it from | 02:26 |
| Flannel | trialanderror: Which task are you looking to automate? | 02:27 |
| willskills_ | to all UO players - anyone successfully compiled Iris2? :) | 02:27 |
| brokensambot | Is there a way to fast user switch in Xubuntu 7.10? | 02:27 |
| cafuego | brokensambot: Click the logout button and select "Switch User" | 02:28 |
| perlfan | dystopianray: Flannel: edited the file, and all worked once I RTFM and realized I had to "reload" in Synaptic | 02:28 |
| Detra | pazsion_, go for it | 02:28 |
| perlfan | so thanks | 02:28 |
| trialanderror | it's a custom software, and when i'm importing file it asks for confirmation.. i will never get the source code (it's been custom-developed for us).. | 02:28 |
| cafuego | Alternatively, add the "Switch user" applet to the panel. | 02:28 |
| Flannel | perlfan: Oh, synaptic has software sources built in anyway. Didn't realise thats what xubuntu used | 02:28 |
| gluttony | dresal, yeah, no one says anything in that room, so, um thanks? | 02:28 |
| CharonX | I am looking at setting up a home backup system for a multi OS, multi server,desktop, laptop environment. Automatic backups from all systems to an additional box. Not sure where to start on that .... anyone have an idea where to point me ? Guides ? | 02:29 |
| brokensambot | yeah I'm looking for something better then clicking switch user, once the user you switch to logs out, it dumps you back to the original desktop, not very secure | 02:29 |
| bmk789 | CharonX: ubuntu server | 02:29 |
| bmk789 | CharonX: can you use a command line? | 02:29 |
| CharonX | bmk789, Yes, im very comfortal with ubuntu. I am trying to figure something out that is automatic and could fully restore my server if something happens | 02:30 |

| zengen | How can I disable a low disk space warning? I have a truecrypt volume taking up most of that partition. | 02:30 |
| Detra | how do I open nautarius as root? | 02:30 |
| lm_t7 | now heres a question that relates to ubuntu, i can't seem to understand how to install the vmware tools... | 02:30 |
| bmk789 | CharonX: do you want the server to get the files from the machines or just have a share open where the machines can backup to? | 02:30 |
| === MekApelsin is now known as blippe | ||
| LjL | Detra: i don't know about nautarious, but "gksudo" can be used to run GUI programs as root, if *really* needed - careful though. | 02:31 |
| CharonX | I would like the machines to handle synchronizing the backups to the backup server. Initially with a full backup and then incrementally thereafter and a full backup every so often | 02:31 |
| LjL | !backup > CharonX (CharonX, see the private message from Ubotu) | 02:32 |
| d0ll4 | could keep do that? | 02:32 |
| Detra | LjL, Well my problem is ... I downloaded linux-source through apt-get and got it as a bz2 file ... I typed bzip2 -d linux-source and got a tar file ... but the tar command tells me that its not a tar file ... what am I doing wrong ? | 02:32 |
| dresal | LjL: gksudo is buggier than dos | 02:32 |
| d0ll4 | or clonezilla, or how's it called? | 02:32 |
| lm_t7 | anyone know anything about vmware + gibbon? | 02:32 |
| bmk789 | CharonX: you can install ubuntu server on the server then install samba or nfs or ssh to let the clients access it | 02:32 |
| trialanderror | Is it possible to, i don't know, move mouse cursor or simulate keyboard event somehow from a shell script or using/writing some software? | 02:32 |
| d0ll4 | @ CharonX sorry :) | 02:33 |

| cramm | Hi, I'm trying to updat from feisty to gutsy using the update manager followng the documented process. First it asks for 700+ MiB of free space on /, so I free that space and restart the process, jus to find it gets to the same point and now asks for 1.3 GiB of free space :) | 02:34 |
| Tarkus_ | anyone know why my windows open in the top right? it does this on all distros, in both gnome and xfce... any ideas? | 02:34 |
| trimmer | Should I post this in the forums, or can we handle it here? | 02:34 |
| d0ll4 | anyone got a working howto for kiba-dock? | 02:35 |
| pazsion_ | lol | 02:35 |

| LjL | Detra, i can't tell you for sure. but i think you *don't* need to recompile the kernel. | 02:37 |
| jrattner1 | Question: Is there an "EasyUbuntu" or Automatix for Gutsy yet? | 02:37 |
| GigaClon | or where would I start? | 02:37 |
| LjL | !wifi > Detra (Detra, see the private message from Ubotu) | see if there are instructions for your card here | 02:37 |

| d0ll4 | jrattner1: what do you want to do with it? | 02:37 |
| LjL | jrattner1: why would such tools be needed? gutsy can install the restricted stuff at a mouseclick. | 02:37 |
| jrattner1 | d0ll4, installing w32 codecs and such | 02:37 |

| CharonX | bmk789, the guides are great for backups but im still concerned about restoring from backup... It would be nice to avoid a system install and setup when It may be possible to ghost a system back to the way it was. Im not very certain how one would restore a system properly | 02:41 |

| Juan | hey | 02:43 |
| mcquaid | i've updated numerous times in the past, never had this | 02:43 |
| Juan | are proposed updates usually safe to install | 02:43 |
| lm_t7 | ah ok | 02:43 |
| LjL | Juan: not necessarily. | 02:43 |
| Dan_L | Dresal, actually when I bought this laptop (the one I'm installing ubuntu on) it came with Vista. It doesn't suck _nearly_ as bad as I expected. But it _really_ sucks. Vista is actually driving me to install linux - and I'm not exactly into this kind of S+M. | 02:43 |
| Juan | worse than backports? | 02:44 |
| kenro | Ljt: Do you think Nintendo will resell 16-bit games? | 02:44 |
| LjL | Juan: that's why they are "proposed" - they might not be safe. i've seen several instances when they weren't. | 02:44 |
| dresal | Dan_L: that's nice | 02:44 |
| LjL | Juan: definitely worse | 02:44 |
| Juan | k | 02:44 |

| LjL | kenro: how is that relevant to the topic of this channel? | 02:44 |

| Random832 | so, how does one go about upgrading? | 02:45 |
| jrattner1 | Question: I read that ubuntu included XGL and those crazy effects by default now, is that the same with kubuntu, and if so where can I locate settings | 02:45 |
| Random832 | is it as simple as - edit sources.list and dist-upgrade? | 02:45 |
| kenro | Ljt Off topic, perhaps, but incidental, therefor relevant. | 02:45 |
| LjL | !upgrade > Random832 (Random832, see the private message from Ubotu) | 02:45 |
| riotkittie | jrattner1: no. | 02:45 |
| LjL | jrattner1: no, it's not the same with Kubuntu | 02:46 |
| GigaClon | im pulling my hair out over my laptop monitor problem, I have no clue where to even start to fix it | 02:46 |
| jrattner1 | oh poop | 02:46 |
| pazsion_ | so most often u can boot another os even tho antoher faill... | 02:46 |
| Random832 | LjL: was that really less typing? or do you have a macro set up for that? | 02:46 |
| LjL | Random832: i do. | 02:46 |

| rredd4_ | !seen Whisperkiller | 02:51 |
| jimmygoon | eido... that doesn't make sense. are you sure it didn't say that rearranged --- "write file image to disc"? | 02:51 |
| rredd4_ | seen is not a bot command? | 02:51 |
| qman | eido, it's a drop down; are there no drives in it? | 02:52 |
| qman | if so you might have a cable loose | 02:52 |
| eido | jimmygoon: it says in the pop-up write disc to: then a drop down but the only thing there is "file image" | 02:52 |
| Flannel | eido: did you have a blank disc in the drive? | 02:52 |
| lm_t7 | can someone help me install vmware tools on gutsy? | 02:52 |
| eido | jimmygoon: yep | 02:52 |
| qman | eido, does the drive work if you put in any other disc and try to read it? | 02:53 |
| eido | jimmygoon: and a lite-on dvd burner 16x | 02:53 |
| jimmygoon | eido, hum, didn't even know there was a drop down menu in that menu :O | 02:53 |
| jimmygoon | eido, um, can you try another blank disc just for the heck of it | 02:53 |
| qman | not a blank one, one with data on it | 02:53 |
| dansku | where do I change the color of selected items in filemanager? it's by default orange, I want to turn ir blue. Thanks | 02:53 |
| Dan_L | Ok. It's installing I think | 02:53 |
| eido | yeah the blank disc appears on my Desktop as an icon | 02:53 |
| Dan_L | "primary network selection" | 02:54 |
| Dan_L | Ok. Wireless it is. | 02:54 |
| cblack0 | so, I did a version upgrade and now my openoffice is busted :( | 02:54 |

| GigaClon | anyone if I need to fix a laptop monitor problem where would I start looking? | 02:54 |
| jimmygoon | cblack0, whats wrong with it | 02:54 |
| dansku | GigaClon, what's your problem? | 02:54 |
| eido | jimmygoon: putting a audio cd comes up in sound juicer and burnt dvds read too | 02:55 |

| jimmygoon | dansku, in the appearance dialog .... System->Preferences->appearance | 02:55 |
| dansku | cblack0, try unninstallin and stalling again | 02:55 |
| Dan_L | Would a standard netgear router qualify as a DHCP network? | 02:55 |
| cblack0 | jimmygoon, when I try to start it it freezes on the splash screen | 02:55 |
| jimmygoon | cblack0, launch it from a termianl and see what happens | 02:55 |
| ihope | Dan_L: it probably would, yes. | 02:55 |
| jimmygoon | Dan_L, 99% of routers have dhcp built in | 02:55 |
| Dan_L | That's what I thought. Not working. But supposedly I have to set up soemthing called NDIS wrapper anyhow. | 02:56 |
| cblack0 | from console the same thing happens | 02:56 |
| jimmygoon | Dan_L, um, ndis is something that runs on your pc, not your rotuer | 02:56 |
| dansku | jimmygoon, but still, there's no place to change that, or I've changed and it's not working | 02:56 |
| AnAlien8me | how do i get aiglx please? the website says something about fedora, but thats it, what do i do to get it??? | 02:56 |
| cblack0 | so, uninstall/reinstall... what is the best way to do that? | 02:56 |
| h3h_timo | hey all... im having a problem with udevd using 100% of my processors... any idea whats goin on?? | 02:56 |
| jimmygoon | Dan_L, and you may have turned off dhcp in your router... that is possible | 02:56 |
| calimeds | hey guys ive been running an install of 7.10 for a few days now, but last night after a restart i cant use the internet anymore. My wifi card is still recognized and connects to my router, but i cant visit any webpages or contact update servers...what do i do | 02:56 |
| jimmygoon | dansku, yeah, I don't really know how to resolve that, I've never heard of that happening and I don't know what would cause it | 02:57 |
| dansku | ok, ty | 02:57 |
| calimeds | the things i did before losing the internet were install vmware player, install pure-ftpd and tahts it | 02:57 |
| clusty | how can i switch between wire and wireless network? | 02:57 |
| jimmygoon | cblack0, my point in launching it from the terminal was to see if it would give any useful feedback | 02:57 |
| qman | sudo apt-get remove openoffice.org | 02:57 |
| calimeds | anybody know how to fix | 02:57 |
| qman | or | 02:57 |
| clusty | once i am connected to wireless i can't go baclk to wire | 02:57 |
| cblack0 | just mv'd my .openoffice.org2 dir out of the way, still no go | 02:57 |
| qman | sudo apt-get install --reinstall openoffice.org | 02:57 |
| dansku | qman, or sudo apt-get remove *openoffice* | 02:57 |
| jimmygoon | and honestly, if you are removing it to fix... cblack0 then you should "sudo aptitude purge openoffice" "sudo apt-get clean" "sudo apt-get install openoffice" ... that will be like as fresh and possible | 02:58 |
| cblack0 | jimmygoon, yeah, unfortunately oowriter doesn't give any failure output on coinsole. good idea tho :) | 02:58 |
| cblack0 | jimmygoon, thanks | 02:58 |
| jimmygoon | cblack0, ah, thats unfortunate :s | 02:58 |
| qman | good idea dansku | 02:58 |
| cblack0 | jimmygoon, can I purge w/o aptitude? is there a strict apt-get/apt-cache way to do it? | 02:58 |
| pinion | Using XChat I get several messages in the server window like: Boffo :No such nick/channel among other user names but I'm not trying to msg anyone. What's that mean? | 02:59 |
| Dan_L | Alright. Ok. Now I pray I didn't brick the computer. | 02:59 |
| calimeds | Can anybody help me get my internet back. I am running an install of 7.10 and last night after a restart I am no longer able to visit web pages or run sudo apt-get commands. My wireless card is still enabled and connects to my router, but I simply cannot visit anything on the internet. | 02:59 |
| jimmygoon | cblack0, no, but aptitude / apt-get are synonymous | 02:59 |
| dansku | that's how I managed to really unnisnstall it , then just install all again | 02:59 |
| NemesisD | anybody? | 02:59 |
| cblack0 | so apt-get purge openoffice should work | 02:59 |
| lm_t7 | can anyone help me install vmware tools on gutsy? | 02:59 |
| jimmygoon | cblack0, um, not quite... | 02:59 |

| xcst | do azureus work fine? | 03:00 |
| cblack0 | calimeds, have you checked around with ping? | 03:00 |
| jimmygoon | xcst, no, utorrent works nearly perfectly with it... it even mentions this on the utorrent website | 03:00 |

| RickX | anyone know how to get a middle click to bring up a window list in metacity? | 03:01 |
| eido | is there a reason why I can copy text with Ctrl+C but cannot paste it in a terminal without right-clicking and choosing paste...are terminals sandboxed in some way? | 03:01 |
| cblack0 | azureus is such a nice ui, just a resource hog | 03:01 |
| jimmygoon | xcst, I haven't used BitTornado or Ktorrent or rTorrent though so I can't speak of them | 03:01 |
| bruenig | eido, ctrl + shift + v | 03:01 |
| xcst | i use bitlord in windows | 03:01 |
| bruenig | eido, same goes for copy ctrl + shift + c | 03:01 |
| NemesisD | uuuugh | 03:01 |
| bruenig | eido, in the terminal at least | 03:01 |
| Flannel | eido: no, terminals just don't have ctrl-v as paste | 03:02 |
| xcst | u think it would be better if i use the same | 03:02 |
| calimeds | can anyone hear me | 03:02 |
| bruenig | hear? | 03:02 |
| === rahul_ is now known as RP-NEX | ||

| bruenig | jimmygoon, no blocklists | 03:02 |
| jimmygoon | WaterSoul, is it security? or a backport? | 03:02 |
| xcst | owww | 03:02 |

| jimmygoon | redt0nia, "sudo -s" or is it "sudo -i" one of those is what you want | 03:05 |
| d0ll4 | or like this :) | 03:06 |
| hydrogen | or | 03:06 |
| hydrogen | the real answer | 03:06 |
| hydrogen | is just sudo command | 03:06 |
| hydrogen | rather than using a root shell | 03:06 |

| calimeds | jimmygoon: its giving 192.168.11.4, i misread | 03:07 |
| redt0nia | brb ice tea ready | 03:08 |
| cafuego | if your subnet mask is ./16 it's not that odd | 03:08 |

| calimeds | jimmygoon: it returns with less than 1ms on each ping | 03:08 |
| jimmygoon | calimeds, thats good... that means you can access your router | 03:08 |
| jimmygoon | calimeds, what about "ping www.google.com" ? | 03:08 |
| calimeds | jimmygoon: ping: unkown host www.google.com | 03:09 |

| Dan_L | It stopped hanging. That's good. | 03:10 |

| wolfjb | calimeds, what does route -n say? also is there a nameserver entry in /etc/resolv.conf? | 03:10 |
| calimeds | jimmygoon: nope, looks fine to me | 03:10 |

| Lightning | evening, maybe someone here has an idea of my problem. did an install, told grub to install to hd0, where linux is installed. win2k came back up (what was on the system which is on hd2). rebooted, told grub to install on hd2 mbr. grub started looping "grub" on the screen. docs say that it is a result of grub re-reading the mbr and to set the drive to user mode instead of auto in the bios for finding. i only have auto or none so that i | 03:12 |

| Dan_L | Hey here's a question: At what point in the install does Grub get configured? | 03:14 |
| navets | how do you turn on compiz | 03:14 |
| Lightning | Dan_L, after the base install | 03:14 |
| navets | there is no manager like there was beryl manager | 03:14 |
| wolfjb | knighthawk, if you run apt-get update you should see lines like this Hit http://us.archive.ubuntu.com gutsy/main Packages | 03:14 |
| d0ll4 | navets: get fusion-icon | 03:14 |
| Dan_L | Lightning, so there really isn't a safety net should the base install fail, right? | 03:14 |
| calimeds | hydrogen: connect: Network is unreachable | 03:15 |

| pwnt- | d0ll4: any java site. or java url. | 03:16 |
| wolfjb | knighthawk, sudo apt-get install htop should work | 03:16 |
| pwnt- | jimmygoon: I did.. still doesn't work | 03:16 |
| d0ll4 | osmosis: you could del the .conf file and reinstall the package | 03:16 |
| Ahadiel | knighthawk, System => Admin => Software Sources | 03:16 |
| Ahadiel | knighthawk, uncheck the CD thing | 03:16 |
| d0ll4 | it should be replaced | 03:16 |
| GigaClon | pwnt-, have you tried selecting it with sudo update-alternatives? | 03:16 |
| dli | any nvidia sli howto? | 03:16 |
| wolfjb | knighthawk, you have to have root privs (given by sudo) to run apt-get install | 03:17 |
| calimeds | d0ll4: you have any other ideas? | 03:17 |
| d0ll4 | dli: shuldn sli be autodetected? | 03:17 |
| pwnt- | GigaClon: I did that, but selecting what? it doesn't let me select there | 03:17 |

| d0ll4 | any computer in a network avaiable to ping this one @ calimeds? | 03:17 |
| knighthawk | wolfjb I should have said sudo ap-get install htop is what I ran. (btw how do you enable su ?) | 03:17 |
| GigaClon | its should bring up something for java | 03:17 |
| hydrogen | !sudo | knighthawk | 03:18 |
| ubotu | knighthawk: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information. | 03:18 |

| hydrogen | it's linked to on that page | 03:18 |
| wolfjb | knighthawk, no need, you have sudo. if you need a root level console, sudo -i will give it to you | 03:18 |

| knighthawk | d0ll4, does envy have to be run with sudo? | 03:31 |
| riotkittie | berent: yes. | 03:31 |
| nj786 | d0ll4: now where can i find this flash player http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/710tour | 03:31 |
| moparisthebest | 2.6.22-14-generic is the latest gutsy kernel for amd64 correct? | 03:32 |
| IdleOne | !envy | knighthawk | 03:32 |
| ubotu | knighthawk: 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! | 03:32 |
| riotkittie | berent: you can try upgrading, which will allow you to keep all of that... but some people are having problems with upgrades | 03:32 |
| choloa | xcst: run synaptic package manager and search for deluge | 03:32 |
| Qb_Master | so hey. In the event that I find a new driver for this, how do I keep the computer stable long enough to install it before the kernel flips out? | 03:32 |
| d0ll4 | nj786 you mean gnash? | 03:32 |
| Dan_L | Yeah. This thing just hangs at boot. | 03:32 |
| d0ll4 | or what its called? | 03:32 |
| ckennedy | trying to access external usb NTFS drive..need assistance? | 03:32 |
| d0ll4 | :D | 03:32 |
| don-o | how do i take a screenshot of a single window instead of the whole screen? | 03:33 |
| nj786 | d0ll4: i dont know lol | 03:33 |
| orochi_ | riotkittie: Yeah, I never recommend upgrading from one distro to another...it's easier just to create a separate home partition for your data and blow away the ones the OS is installed to, same result but less hassle | 03:33 |
| nj786 | d0ll4: well can you use flash? | 03:33 |
| d0ll4 | knighthawk: i think so yes. | 03:33 |
| rjonesx | is there a good PHP IDE for ubuntu (preferably open source) | 03:33 |
| moparisthebest | ckennedy, ntfs-3g should work well for that | 03:33 |

| d0ll4 | nj786 im not a youtube freak... :) i installed noscript and im happy with it :) | 03:33 |
| Dan_L | Anybody have any guesses as to what might be wrong here? | 03:33 |
| knighthawk | ubotu, okay thanks | 03:33 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about okay thanks - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 03:33 |
| don-o | rjonesx: bash and vi are the best php ide i know. | 03:33 |
| berent | riotkittie: yeah me too. During "Preparing to Install" after stating some packages are absolete (which inclUDES emac!!!!?? ) which will be prompted at end to remove; it hangs. | 03:33 |
| orochi_ | rjonesx: I use KDevelop and Quanta for HTML, although both have good syntax highlighting :> Quanta in particular will do autocompletion of PHP methods so you don't have to look them up in the API | 03:33 |

| === ryan_ is now known as FotoPhocus | ||
| Qb_Master | meh maybe it can | 03:38 |
| Qb_Master | well okay guys | 03:39 |
| nj786 | d0ll4: what does this mean n terminal, navigate to this directory and type ./flashplayer-installer to run the installer. Click Enter. The installer will instruct you to shut down your browser(s). | 03:39 |
| MasterShrek | kevinp, if you want the command to run at boot up, put it in /etc/rc.local | 03:39 |

| kevinp | MasterShrek, that is one way of doing it, but I thought that it should start the networking automatically. I remember something during the install where it asked if I want to start networking using network-manager, or ifup/ifdown. anyone remember this? | 03:41 |
| fujin | Anyone give me a clue on how to create lots of entropy relatively quickly? | 03:41 |

| RoC_MasterMind | Anybody got a good program they use for traffic shaping/QoS? I can't reformat the box and want something relatively easy, but flexible.

| patbam | i SEAUX ♥ ubuntu! i just printed something, and it didn't work. "hmm," i thought to myself, "what could possibly be the problem?" no sooner than i had pondered, a bubble pops up and says "Printer not connected?".

| leftyfb | Could someone help me out with getting the touchpad to work properly on an HP Pavilion tx1000 please? http://pastebin.ca/747504 should be all the information needed to help troubleshoot. The problem is the calibration being WAY off .. it detects touches, but doesn't so much move, but just resets where the mouse cursor is. I've got this far from the posts on the ubuntu forums btw. | 03:42 |
| sico | or copy the "failsafe gnome" settings to a new session (so i can make that the default)? | 03:42 |
| jrattner1 | MasterShrek, thanks | 03:43 |
| riotkittie | MikeG: they should be handled by the notifier applet. is there a bar, a seperator -something - in front of them? right click that | 03:43 |

| choloa | anyone know of any good video chat clients over AIM? | 03:45 |
| MasterShrek | jrattner1, well kde doesnt use gtk, so you are probably going to have to install a bunch of gnome things for whatever you are attempting to compile, just curious, what is it you are compiling? | 03:45 |
| leftyfb | So nobody here has any experience with touchscreens/tablets and Ubuntu (gutsy)? | 03:46 |
| jrattner1 | MasterShrek, mail-notification (with SSL support), but I originally installed ubuntu, and then kubuntu ontop of it, so I assumed that I would have these libraries already | 03:46 |

| Vuen | hey guys, i hear new fglrx was released. how long until it hits gutsy backports? | 04:03 |
| seamus7 | unzzi: was it diffictul to install the driver? what guide did you use if any? | 04:03 |
| qman | prak, open a terminal, and use "ps -e | grep <application name>" to find it, then use "kill -9 <pid>" or "killall -9 <application name>" | 04:03 |
| Ashfire908 | MasterShrek, won't let me | 04:03 |
| thedefender | I am also curious about the new FGLRX release | 04:03 |
| Xerostyle | well, my light is still dead, do I just reboot, or am I screwed? | 04:03 |

| djtigerwolf | 7.4 back ports | 04:04 |

| Shpoo1 | Well, anyways, I'm have these freezing problems that are seemingly random, but it seems like nothing saves for roughly 3-5 minutes leading up to the freeze. (Cookies, any preferences or options, sessions) Anyone seen this before? I've done MANY things trying to resolve this problem, and I feel this might be a clue. | 04:05 |
| sgwizdak | Pacane: nah, the display manager and server stay up | 04:05 |
| sgwizdak | Pacane: only the x-session restarts | 04:05 |
| GenNMX | I had to recompile the kernel to get support for growing RAID5 devices, and it got me thinking -- could I use the latest kernel version with Edgy? This is only a server box with relatively old hardware in it. | 04:05 |
| Pacane | How Can I restart X server? | 04:05 |
| Pacane | I took my mates xorg.conf | 04:05 |
| dystopianray | Pacane, ctrl+alt+backspace | 04:05 |
| ddonky | so I can just use Update Manager to update to gutsy? | 04:05 |
| MasterShrek | Shpoo1, hardware issue soemwhere i would say, using ndiswrapper by chance? | 04:05 |
| wolfjb | you can /etc/init.d/gdm restart | 04:05 |
| Pacane | ok ty | 04:06 |

| juancho | hello | 04:07 |
| spank1 | Ashfire908, you mean after I disable the onboard one via the bios? | 04:07 |
| spank1 | how about SAPPHIRE 100196L Radeon X1950PRO? on Ubuntu? | 04:07 |
| Ashfire908 | spank1, in other words, if you disable it in the BIOS, it shouldn't even exist at all in ubuntu | 04:07 |
| spank1 | oopppppppps | 04:07 |
| TokenBad | can you use mdf files in ubuntu? | 04:07 |
| Vuen | Ashfire908: gksu or gksudo | 04:07 |

| redt0nia | rm cnr* | 04:09 |
| Shpoo1 | But I have tested my memory, tried many different nvidia drivers, and disabled CPU scaling, multicore and power management to rule those out. | 04:09 |
| seamus7 | Anyone know how soon Ubuntu might include the new ATI driver in the repos? | 04:09 |
| Vuen | TokenBad: in other words, it won't be nice, stable, or easy. google cdemu and break out the compiler | 04:09 |
| thedefender | no word yet on new FGLRX drivers, features, etc? | 04:09 |

| thedefender | !FGLRX | 04:11 |
| ubotu | To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 04:11 |
| Shpoo1 | MasterShrek: I just searched on ndiswrapper, and I don't use it. | 04:11 |
| tastywheat | thedefender: fglrx , try installing it? | 04:11 |
| rredd4_ | why won't wine repo show up when I update? | 04:11 |
| sgwizdak | kdc1956: more info required -- is it the boot cd that's failing, or have you already installed and you're not getting anything? | 04:11 |
| juancho | does linux assing size quotas to users?? | 04:11 |
| Shpoo1 | It seems most of the opinions I get lead towards hardware though... | 04:11 |
| MasterShrek | Shpoo1, im not really sure then, its hard to say what would be locking it up, do you have any strange hardware? kind of a vague question i guess... | 04:11 |
| thedefender | no, wondering about the new FGLRX drivers recently released and when they will be available for gutsy | 04:11 |
| kdc1956 | no I can not install at all it want boot | 04:12 |
| juancho | how do i know the quota for the users and for the root? | 04:12 |
| MasterShrek | thedefender, download them and compile them yourself | 04:12 |
| Vuen | juancho: not by default no. if it's telling you your partition is full, it's because it's *FULL* full, as in there isn't a byte free to touch a lock file | 04:12 |
| tastywheat | thedefender: i have it installed on 7.04 :-) | 04:12 |
| Shpoo1 | A no-name sound card that I don't use, I guess I should take it out. | 04:12 |
| wolfjb | rredd4_, don't know, but do you get the correct version of wine installed? | 04:12 |
| Vuen | juancho: if you can't log in normally, it looks like it's your home partition that is full. so find some files you don't need and delete them, and all should be well | 04:12 |
| thedefender | never had to make a kernel module before so i figured i would wait for synaptic to do it | 04:12 |
| Xerostyle | MasterShrek: I know it's switch is on, how do I get to the bios to make sure it's enabled? | 04:12 |

| rredd4_ | wolfjb amd64 | 04:13 |
| Vuen | Paddy_EIRE: ~/.firefox? | 04:13 |
| MasterShrek | Xerostyle, well if it was working before and you dont know how to get into the bios, then its probably not disabled in there | 04:13 |
| tastywheat | Vuen: im compiling from git to see if it will work | 04:13 |
| Shpoo1 | MasterShrek: Yeah, but the more I eliminate, the closer I get to the source. :-) | 04:13 |
| MasterShrek | Xerostyle, sorry, did u say u were running gutsy? | 04:13 |
| juancho | vuen: but doesn't root have always some extra space to fix the system?? (and his extra quota even linux complains about full partition) | 04:13 |
| MasterShrek | Shpoo1, tru.dat | 04:13 |

| Frogzoo | jimmydee: set a smb passwd with smbpasswd | 04:22 |
| jimmydee | dun did that | 04:22 |
| Vuen | sanguisdex: ah, that's good. yeah if you want to significantly change your partitions you'll need the disk to reinstall | 04:22 |
| rredd4_ | wolfjb i have .47 Whisperkiller has .46 | 04:22 |
| rat32 | i was trying to get flashplugin-nonfree but i cant add the medibuntu repository | 04:22 |

| sanguisdex | ok | 04:23 |
| detra | LjL, I did it ... I found the help from the bot thingy you found for me ... thx ... | 04:23 |
| wolfjb | rredd4_, maybe it's a amd64 thing then | 04:23 |
| tastywheat | i was just wondering cus i have that driver installed, it seems to be running ok.. not great but fine | 04:23 |
| Vuen | sanguisdex: unless you have some other harddrive where you can back up the entire contents of all the partitions and replace them afterwards | 04:23 |
| Gorgapor | frogzoo, you mean the automount_drives setting? | 04:23 |
| jimmydee | is the username host\username or guest\username? | 04:23 |
| fo_x86 | anyone have an idea why my gutsy won't read a partition of my harddrive? | 04:23 |
| rat32 | im on feisty 7.04 | 04:23 |
| rredd4_ | wolfjb thats what i was wondering | 04:23 |
| Frogzoo | Gorgapor: no, there's a 'show volumes on desktop' or similiar | 04:23 |
| CarlFK | what's the mkfs -x to make an ext3 fs? | 04:23 |
| scott | So does anyone know why my update manager wouldn't inform me of the Ubuntu 7.10 release? | 04:23 |
| rat32 | fo_x86: you need ntfs-config | 04:23 |
| Vuen | sanguisdex: wait nevermind, you'll still need the cd to reinstall grub. yeah, you need the cd. sorry :/ | 04:23 |
| Frogzoo | CarlFK: mkfs.ext3 | 04:23 |
| user1234 | i have a problem with ubuntu 7.10 persistent, when starting it stops to the shell saying initramfs, why? | 04:23 |

| fo_x86 | why doesn't my ubuntu recognize my partitions? | 04:24 |
| Frogzoo | rredd4_: there is no 64bit wine | 04:24 |
| rredd4_ | wolfjb maybe someone else will know | 04:24 |
| jimmydee | fo_x86: did you put them in fstab and mtab? | 04:24 |

| fo_x86 | jimmydee: I partitioned my 250 GB drive to 60GB 60 GB and the rest | 04:25 |
| unzzi | tastywheat: Only problems I have encountered with the new driver were with compiz. Alt+tab and ctrl+alt+down (default keys). Those views show everythign white except windows title bars which show normal. That and video playback problems | 04:25 |
| rredd4_ | Frogzoo ok, but this is a sources.list problem | 04:25 |

| juancho | what's the better utility to repartition in linux? | 04:25 |
| CarlFK | kye: you will need to start a new bash shell for it to get added to your path | 04:26 |
| user1234 | i have no idea | 04:26 |
| juancho | i want to resize partitions | 04:26 |
| fo_x86 | jimmydee: I have ubuntu on one of the 60GB, windows on the other 60GB and I was planning to use the rest as a storage | 04:26 |
| user1234 | the live cd kernel | 04:26 |
| thedefender | unzzi: so the new drivers are kind of screwy | 04:26 |
| clusty | how can i make X redetect my settings and write a xorg.conf that works? | 04:26 |
| juancho | like in partition magic | 04:26 |
| Frogzoo | juancho: gparted | 04:26 |
| jimmydee | !partitions | 04:26 |

| unzzi | thedefender: unfortunately yes | 04:26 |
| thedefender | clusty: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg | 04:26 |

| gary_inNYC | unzzi what exactly is your problem with video playback? | 04:27 |
| clusty | thedefender: what does -phigh do? | 04:27 |
| sacater | kaiou: what is your wireless card and router? | 04:27 |
| unzzi | Cable86: Then I have still hope that it's not a driver problem then :) | 04:27 |
| juancho | can i resize beign almost sure that the partition is gonna be ok (vs. corrupted data, unusable partition etc etc) | 04:27 |
| jimmydee | clusty: allows you to reach over the seat | 04:27 |
| Cable86 | gary_inNYC: i installed fglrx 8.42 and now video playback is "flickery" | 04:27 |
| user1234 | i have a problem with ubuntu 7.10 persistent, when starting it stops to the shell saying initramfs, somebody can help me please? | 04:27 |

| jacquesmerde | sacater: i know, but an open source piece of software has to reach a certain level of stability and features before you drop the proprietary one for it | 04:32 |

| ToddEDM | no it doesnt seem to do anything... then i go and click on COMPUTER> cd/dvdrom... and it says unable to mount | 04:40 |
| sacater | Qb_Master: google | 04:40 |
| qman | well, I don't know if the ra0 bug has been fixed in networkmanager | 04:40 |
| sacater | Qb_Master: there are many compatable ones | 04:40 |
| wirechief1 | Whisperkiller see my pm | 04:40 |
| ToddEDM | thedefender: yeah its running great | 04:40 |
| qman | but you can get one of those for about $15 on newegg | 04:40 |
| jimmydee | earl: this is what I've found with my many piii's 500 or less | 04:40 |
| sacater | I use a pcmia wireless card myself | 04:40 |
| eno__ | wolfjb: thanks, I guess I will look around in google and apt-cache | 04:40 |
| user1234 | why am i getting a shell that says INITRAMFS each time i start my usb pen in persistent mode? | 04:40 |
| earl_ | i'll give it a shot | 04:40 |
| Qb_Master | well I am googling | 04:40 |
| niuq | (297.799458) out of memory: kill process 3512 (localedef score 542 or a child) | 04:40 |
| thedefender | ToddEDM: did the drive work before you installed ubuntu | 04:41 |
| Qb_Master | lol I was looking for which ones are compatible | 04:41 |
| sacater | user1234: please stop repeating that question, we can all see it, if no answers it means no-one here knows at the moment, try asking later | 04:41 |
| niuq | this appears while i'm trying to install xubuntu : (297.799458) out of memory: kill process 3512 (localedef score 542 or a child) | 04:41 |
| sacater | user1234: by about 1 hour | 04:41 |
| ToddEDM | yeah, and worked to install it | 04:41 |
| qman | I'd avoid broadcom chips if I were you | 04:41 |
| user1234 | but i have to sleep in 1 hour | 04:41 |
| qman | they do work now, but they're still not very good cards | 04:41 |
| sacater | !repeating | 04:41 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about repeating - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 04:41 |
| sacater | :/ | 04:41 |
| don-o | niuq: looks like your box needs more ram | 04:41 |
| niuq | 256 ram | 04:41 |
| niuq | for xubuntu, i thought it was enough | 04:41 |
| sacater | niuq: it is :S | 04:42 |
| thedefender | sacater: your on your way to becoming one of those ops, better start studying those IRC guidelines before you go to bed | 04:42 |
| Qb_Master | what kinds of Wireless NICs do you guys have (that work)? | 04:42 |
| qman | niuq, set up a swap partition and swapon before running setup | 04:42 |
| jimmydee | niuq: I run xubuntu under 96 megs on my laptop | 04:42 |
| Qb_Master | *that work with Ubuntu 7.10 | 04:42 |
| luislo | Hi all. I'd appreciate your comments on the following... Under gutsy, I insert an SDcard in the built-in reader, and although the reader led turns on, the OS freezes... this didn't happen in previous ubuntu though. Please help. | 04:42 |
| Xerostyle | qman: are you talking to me? because the thing is all internal. I can't get the damn thing to work consistantly. | 04:42 |
| qman | niuq, that way setup will have enough RAM | 04:42 |
| don-o | Qb_Master: zd1211 based USB wifi dongle | 04:42 |
| earl_ | jimmydee: anything else you recommend while i'm in the rescue system? | 04:42 |
| niuq | qman, but i dont have that option | 04:42 |
| sacater | niuq: i did my laptop install of xubuntu graphically with 184mb RAM, was fine | 04:42 |
| jimmydee | earl: prayer | 04:42 |
| sacater | thedefender: :o | 04:42 |
| Qb_Master | k | 04:42 |
| niuq | qman: i get that message before i can set anything | 04:42 |
| luislo | Hi all. I'd appreciate your comments on the following... Under gutsy, I insert an SDcard in the built-in reader, and although the reader led turns on, the OS freezes... this didn't happen in previous ubuntu though. Please help. | 04:43 |
| thedefender | sacater: that wasn't a compliment | 04:43 |
| sacater | thedefender: i know | 04:43 |
| qman | niuq, I had the same problem with ubuntu on a dell laptop, I used a gentoo boot CD to set it up, and the kernel automatically looks for and activates swap | 04:43 |
| earl_ | not sure how well that will work, jimmydee | 04:43 |
| thedefender | what are the major drawbacks of the opensource ATI driver? | 04:43 |
| wirechief | Whisperkiller are you there ? | 04:43 |
| niuq | sacater: so, should i download gentoo? | 04:43 |
| qman | thedefender, 3D hardware acceleration is near nonexistant | 04:43 |
| rredd4_ | if there is no reply from a repo, shouldn't i get failed when I update? | 04:44 |
| niuq | qman: and how could the swap help me out? | 04:44 |
| earl_ | jimmydee: have you actually run into this same problem, or is it just a general thing you've had to do for P3's | 04:44 |
| gennui | i've gotten the nvidia driver, of this i'm sure, but the restricted driver manager refuses to 'enable' now | 04:44 |
| qman | niuq, the swap partition acts like extra RAM, so it'll get you through setup | 04:44 |
| sacater | niuq: lol, dont be so drastic, try using the xubuntu alternate install CD, or 'fluxbuntu' version of ubuntu | 04:44 |
| thedefender | qman: why is that? | 04:44 |
| sacater | niuq: use gentoo minimal if you want :P | 04:44 |
| qman | niuq, once installed, xubuntu can handle running on that little RAM just fine | 04:44 |
| jimmydee | I have run into this exact dealio earl | 04:44 |
| sacater | niuq: up to you | 04:44 |
| === wempi is now known as Co_Sk_TT_gede | ||
| wolfjb | luislo, I have tifm_core and tifm_sd modules loaded for my sd card reader which work fine, maybe you need one or both of them? I have them in /etc/modules to load on boot | 04:45 |
| qman | thedefender, because ATi doesn't release their hardware specifications, and the 3D acceleration for each card has not been reverse engineered | 04:45 |
| gennui | i should have said, the nvidia driver is loaded, but the restricted driver manager won't let it be enable hence no compiz | 04:45 |
| sacater | niuq: qman is right, use the alternate install CD | 04:45 |
| qman | thedefender, it's a very difficult task | 04:45 |
| niuq | scater: fluxbuntu? | 04:45 |
| jimmydee | jwmbuntu | 04:45 |
| sacater | niuq: yes, a version of ubuntu with the fluxbox desktop enviroment | 04:45 |
| tcpsyn | cd /usr/bin | 04:45 |
| XiXaQ | is vmware player fast enough so that you could watch a movie in it, for instance? | 04:45 |
| sacater | niuq: which is super-fast and meant for low-end systems | 04:45 |
| qman | niuq, using the alternate CD will also avoid the problem as sacater said | 04:45 |
| niuq | scater: mmm ok, i'll download it | 04:46 |
| sacater | niuq: fluxbuntu is getting its legs, try it | 04:46 |
| niuq | qman: alternate cd? | 04:46 |
| earl_ | jimmydee: good that makes me hopeful | 04:46 |
| sacater | niuq: yes | 04:46 |
| sacater | niuq: ill get you a link | 04:46 |
| qman | niuq, yes, the text mode setup CD instead of live CD | 04:46 |
| sacater | niuq: alternate means non-graphical | 04:46 |
| jimmydee | earl: shouldnt be much of a headache | 04:46 |
| sacater | niuq: what qman said :P | 04:46 |
| sacater | niuq: ill get you a link, sec | 04:46 |
| Qb_Master | well, I think once I get a new wireless card I can use Ubuntu more often | 04:46 |
| gennui | can anyone tell me what the restricted driver manager actually does? | 04:46 |
| niuq | sacater: i think i just had it | 04:46 |
| Qb_Master | hopefully so | 04:46 |
| jimmydee | gennui: manages restricted drivers | 04:47 |
| sacater | niuq: k, ill find link nyway | 04:47 |
| tcpsyn | sacater, I found it, I edited the /usr/bin/compiz file | 04:47 |
| rredd4_ | if there is no reply from a repo, shouldn't i get failed when I update? | 04:47 |
| niuq | scater: i just download this last version, thinking that cd was bad or something :P | 04:47 |
| FX_ | Hey got a question. I installed kubuntu on my Ubuntu system and I'd like to remove it. I ran "sudo aptitude remove kubuntu-desktop" and it will not remove anything. Any ideas? | 04:47 |
| niuq | scater ok thx | 04:47 |
| thedefender | qman: so essentially by using the opensource driver my nice 256 mb videocard with onboard GPU is like a old laptop intergrated video card | 04:47 |
| jacquesmerde | what feature(s) does evolution have that stops ubuntu going with thunderbird? | 04:47 |
| gennui | jimmydee: uh great, then why is the restricted driver loaded despite what the rdm says? | 04:47 |
| LoneShadow | !realplayer | 04:47 |
| niuq | qman: but i still had one problem with the alternate cd | 04:47 |

| niuq | qman: it get stuck at 65 percent | 04:47 |

| rellik | When I try to start compiz I get this error: Checking for Xgl: not present; no whitelisted driver found (then it reverts to metacity).. I've been scouring the net but haven't found the answer.. any body have any ideas? | 04:48 |
| thedefender | qman: have your heard anything about the new FGLRX and if it can work with AIGLX | 04:48 |
| niuq | sacater: i thin i already try that option, and i had a problem as well | 04:48 |
| sacater | niuq: :i | 04:48 |
| earl_ | jimmydee: it didn't work, again. this time ab lack screen with no cursor this tmie | 04:48 |
| thedefender | qman: i know its not in the repos yet | 04:48 |
| earl_ | rellik: do you know what driver you're running? | 04:49 |
| hydrogen | rellik: you need to probably use the nonfree driver | 04:49 |
| qman | thedefender, I don't know anything about aiglx, unfortunately | 04:49 |
| sacater | niuq: it may have been ubuntu standard alternate, | 04:49 |
| niuq | sacater: it get stuck at 65 percent | 04:49 |
| sacater | niuq: im meaning the xubuntu versiion | 04:49 |
| sacater | niuq: ah.. | 04:49 |
| xstat | hello, sorry about my interruption | 04:49 |
| niuq | noup, pretty sure it was xubuntu | 04:49 |
| jimmydee | earl: rescue and reinstall grub | 04:49 |
| sacater | niuq: kk | 04:49 |
| rellik | earl_, hydrogen I'm using the ubuntu fglrx (restricted) driver | 04:49 |
| gennui | jimmydee: i had a working gutsy+nvidia+compiz but then the screen&graphics wizard totally destroyed my xorg-conf file and all the backups. so i finally reconstructed an xorg file, but now the rdm won't acknowledge that nvidia is loaded so no compiz | 04:50 |
| thedefender | oh no | 04:50 |
| niuq | sacater: well ill check the link | 04:50 |
| sacater | qman: is there anyway to check a log or someithng off the alternate disc, to see where niuq's system may be going bad | 04:50 |
| stevarino | hi all | 04:50 |
| earl_ | rellik: do you know what version | 04:50 |
| thedefender | seamus7 is logged out and he was trying to install new ATI FGLRX, wonder if he will make it back | 04:50 |
| sacater | *waves at stevarino* | 04:50 |
| earl_ | jimmydee: reinstall grub? why | 04:50 |
| earl_ | jimmydee: it makes it all the way to where it should start X and then it does nothing | 04:50 |
| stevarino | i just installed linux-restricted-modules-generic but i'm not seeing a restricted drivers manager in my admin menu... any clue? | 04:50 |
| jimmydee | earl its obviously not grubbing | 04:50 |
| niuq | sacater: checking the bios system? | 04:51 |
| Vuen | hey guys, i'm trying to install truecrypt, but when i type 'sudo modprobe tcrypt' it says "resource temporarily unavailable". what gives? | 04:51 |
| qman | mm, not really, it's all in RAM so it's gone as soon as it dies | 04:51 |
| sacater | niuq: .... bios wouldnt have logs.. | 04:51 |
| earl_ | jimmydee: it grubs just fine, i just used grub to boot into a recovery console | 04:51 |
| sacater | qman: thought so :( | 04:51 |
| thedefender | hey i remember one of you said you had installed the new FGLRX | 04:51 |
| xstat | i have just finished installing kubuntu 7.1 and i found a problem using kopete to connect to msn network... it sais SIGSEGV error caused the application to stop. anyone had this problem? could you solve it?? | 04:51 |
| qman | sticking at a point like that is a sign of either a bad disc, or a fussy CD drive | 04:51 |
| thedefender | saying you were have video playback proms | 04:51 |
| niuq | sacater: i mean just to check for any problem | 04:51 |
| jimmydee | you used grub on the boot disk to boot into rescue right? | 04:51 |
| rellik | earl_, gflrxinfo reports version 2.0.6473 (8.37.6) | 04:51 |
| jimmydee | not so much grub on the hard disk | 04:52 |
| sacater | xstat: best ask in #kubuntu for that, having a sigsegv after a fresh install is unusual though :( | 04:52 |
| sacater | niuq: the BIOS is not going to save logs | 04:52 |
| niuq | qman: there is a memory test, it might help? | 04:52 |
| dystopianray | xstat, kopete is broken but there is a fixed deb floating around somewhere | 04:52 |
| sacater | niuq: yeh go or memory test | 04:52 |
| sacater | for* | 04:52 |
| niuq | sacater: what logs are you talking about? | 04:52 |
| Syclopse | us.undernet.org | 04:53 |
| xstat | thank you very much both!! | 04:53 |
| niuq | sacater: wtf.... | 04:53 |
| sacater | niuq: logs off the livecd, that would claim where everything halted | 04:53 |
| Vuen | niuq: did you do the "Check CD for errors" before installing? | 04:53 |
| stevarino | brb | 04:53 |
| niuq | Vuen: yeap | 04:53 |
| jimmydee | earl: so it will boot to recovery from the grub menu but not the real deal? | 04:53 |
| qman | niuq, that only tests for bad RAM, which might be the case | 04:53 |
| Vuen | hmm | 04:53 |
| thedefender | who here is running the new FLGRX released in August | 04:53 |
| qman | niuq, if you're unsure about it, it's worth trying | 04:53 |
| niuq | qman: .... memory : 63 mb..... | 04:53 |
| earl_ | right. and if i type startx in recovery, it goes to the same black screen | 04:54 |
| dystopianray | thedefender, there is a new one released within the next 24 hours | 04:54 |
| earl_ | rellik: that version of fglrx isn't new enough | 04:54 |
| P_Kable | anybody uses conceal here ? | 04:54 |
| gennui | jimmydee: the restricted driver manager says nvidia is "in use" but won't "enable" | 04:54 |
| dystopianray | thedefender, i mean the last 24 hours | 04:54 |
| niuq | qman: not sure 63m 839mb/s | 04:54 |
| jimmydee | gennui: I hate to say this but I'm an ati guy | 04:54 |
| jimmydee | earl: you have kdm or gdm installed? | 04:55 |
| thedefender | dystopianray: version? and do you know if it supports AIGLX | 04:55 |
| earl_ | gdm. | 04:55 |
| niuq | qman :S:S there is something wrong with hardware i think | 04:55 |
| jimmydee | then dont startx, sudo gdm | 04:55 |
| qman | niuq, if you only have 64MB of RAM, that's the problem | 04:55 |
| dystopianray | thedefender, yes it does support aiglx, i think it is 8.42.3 | 04:55 |
| qman | niuq, you probably need a swap partition | 04:55 |
| rellik | earl_, alright.. this is the version in the ubuntu repo.. should I go look around the ATI site and install manually or is there an easier way? | 04:55 |
| niuq | qman: i'm sure i have two card of 128 mb | 04:55 |
| sacater | qman: on a livecd? | 04:55 |
| gennui | jimmydee: the driver appears to be loaded and functional and it worked before... it's something weird with the r.d.m. | 04:55 |
| earl_ | rellik: i'll link you to a howto | 04:55 |
| eno__ | regarding a command line tool to work with the clipboard: xclip seems to do the job | 04:55 |
| bjb1959 | have a friend that has an external usb drive ntfs format that fails to mount from command line or with ntfs-3g config utility. gets an error about not being able to mount /dev/sdc1 and something about windows ntfs marked already in use. any ideas? | 04:55 |
| sacater | qman: how would that work? | 04:55 |
| |neon| | can ne1 explain what nx (nomachine) is please | 04:55 |
| beasse | Any Swedish here_ | 04:56 |
| dystopianray | |neon|, google it | 04:56 |
| qman | sacater, create the swap partition with a minimal linux, like the gentoo install CD, then boot the live CD | 04:56 |
| gennui | jimmydee: and if you are an ATi guy then you must like weird bugs | 04:56 |
| sacater | qman: clever... | 04:56 |
| jimmydee | gennui: I find them tasty | 04:56 |
| qman | sacater, it scans and enables swap partitions automatically during boot | 04:56 |
| earl_ | rellik: nevermind the howto is down. just google ati 8.42 linux | 04:56 |
| sacater | qman: ah... that is very good... | 04:56 |
| jacquesmerde | what feature(s) does evolution have that stops ubuntu going with thunderbird? | 04:56 |
| gennui | jimmydee: what is the rdm doing? do you know? | 04:56 |
| beasse | I screwed up bad.. i think i have.. lost my entire c:/ partition with my WinXP =/ | 04:56 |
| sacater | jacquesmerde: better gnome integration? | 04:56 |
| earl_ | you should be able tod ownload the script. make it executable, then execute it. then get back to me, i'll tell you how to "whitelist" fglrx | 04:57 |
| dystopianray | beasse, restore your backup | 04:57 |
| rellik | earl_, thanks a ton... I'll let you know if I get it :) | 04:57 |
| jimmydee | gennui: from what I can see you could purge and reinstall the nvidia restricted driver | 04:57 |
| jacquesmerde | sacater: i thought it was more than that... besides, then why not scrap firefox for evolution? | 04:57 |
| sacater | eh... | 04:57 |
| rat32 | i seem to have installed the medibuntu repositories but flashplugin-nonfree wont appear in my packages in synaptic | 04:57 |
| jacquesmerde | sacater: i mean, for epiphany | 04:57 |
| earl_ | jimmydee: i'll try sudo gdm | 04:57 |
| gennui | should i purge the kernel part or just glx? | 04:57 |
| beasse | dystopianray: i took no backup i think | 04:57 |
| rat32 | i cant view video of any sort, how can i get flashplugin-nonfree ? | 04:57 |
| qman | though, if his system is only detecting 64MB, he's going to have trouble | 04:57 |
| dystopianray | beasse, then it wasn't important enough to worry about | 04:57 |
| sacater | jacquesmerde: because firefox is more well known, so newbies will be drawn to it | 04:58 |
| bjb1959 | have a friend that has an external usb drive ntfs format that fails to mount from command line or with ntfs-3g config utility. gets an error about not being able to mount /dev/sdc1 and something about windows ntfs marked already in use. any ideas? | 04:58 |
| hydrogen | plus they both use the same framework | 04:58 |
| jimmydee | gennui: try glx first, it may take the kernel part with it, be sure to change your xorg.conf to vesa before restarting x | 04:58 |
| sacater | jacquesmerde: i myself installed ubuntu, then installed fluxbox, xfce compiled from source, then installed kubuntu-desktop over the top | 04:58 |
| fujin | Could anyone point me in the right direction for creating my own secure apt repository. | 04:58 |
| jacquesmerde | really, newbies can tell the difference? they're more comfortable with the firefox widgets??? | 04:58 |
| earl_ | rat32: are you running 64bit? | 04:58 |
| sacater | jacquesmerde: i have LOADS of apps | 04:58 |
| jimmydee | earl: did the gdm thing work? | 04:58 |
| earl_ | gimme a sec to try it | 04:59 |
| gennui | jimmydee: i removed and reinstalled glx before but didn't purge | 04:59 |
| sacater | jacquesmerde: well no, they have probably used or heard of windows version of firefox though | 04:59 |
| rat32 | earl_: yes, and even though i got medibuntu repos. i get this message: Package flashplugin-nonfree is not available, but is referred to by another package. | 04:59 |
| rat32 | This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or | 04:59 |
| rat32 | is only available from another source | 04:59 |
| rat32 | E: Package flashplugin-nonfree has no installation candidate | 04:59 |
| niuq | qman: i'm confused, in bios i get 133 mb, but when i test it with xubuntu appears 64 mb | 04:59 |
| hydrogen | if you ask me canonical should just make a deal with opera and include that by default. | 04:59 |
| sacater | jacquesmerde: i use opera :P | 04:59 |
| jimmydee | !purge | 04:59 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about purge - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 04:59 |

| earl_ | went thorugh the same nightmare a few weeks ago =( | 04:59 |
| jimmydee | could somene give me the command to purge the nvidia restricted driver, I'm foggy tonight | 04:59 |
| hydrogen | the 9.5 weekly snapshots are crazyfast sacater | 04:59 |
| qman | niuq, are you sure that's not 133MHz, not MB? because that's an odd number for RAM, RAM goes in doubles, 32, 64, 128, 256 | 05:00 |
| beasse | Anyone who can help me with configuring my system i have a lot of questions circulating in my mind how to get my soundcard working etc and also get wine etc to work | 05:00 |
| rat32 | earl_: my friend just got it installed though and he runs 64 bit...somehow he got flashplugin-nonfree | 05:00 |
| sacater | jimmydee: sudo apt-get remove --purge #packagename | 05:00 |
| gennui | jimmydee: well, here goes... see you in 640x480 | 05:00 |

| earl_ | no, he did not. | 05:00 |
| niuq | qman: give me a sec | 05:00 |
| rat32 | i use to be able to watch videos until i had to reinstall feisty...now i just cant at all | 05:00 |
| jacquesmerde | sacater: would you use opera without kde? | 05:00 |
| jimmydee | hydrogen: you could run ies4linux | 05:00 |
| Flannel | beasse: Best to go one at a time. http://help.ubuntu.com has a nice rundown of a bunch of stuff, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine is a good wine source | 05:00 |
| beasse | dystopianray: i loost a hell a lot of shit.. i think it wasnt anything super important i have some backup on another disk but still im not use to this | 05:00 |
| thedefender | dystopianray: are you using the new driver | 05:00 |
| earl_ | flashplugin-nonfree is made by adobe, they don't support 64bit builds of linux | 05:00 |
| LivingInX | rat32: he is probably running FFox in 32bit mode | 05:00 |
| hydrogen | jimmydee: why would I do that? | 05:01 |
| sacater | hydrogen: jacquesmerde hell yeah | 05:01 |
| rat32 | maybe its not flash then, but i cant watch any video and i have mplayer and totem and lots | 05:01 |
| AaronMT | Anyone in here having problems with the new kernel/fglrx (ATI) driver and your computer unable to enter or resume from suspend/hibernate without a crash? | 05:01 |
| dystopianray | thedefender, i'm not stupid enough to buy ati hardware | 05:01 |
| rat32 | Livingwish there was an easy way to do that with my 64 bit FFox | 05:01 |
| jimmydee | hydrogen: if firefox is bad | 05:01 |
| earl_ | flashplugin isn't responsible for whether or not you can see video | 05:01 |
| thedefender | lol | 05:01 |
| chetnick | Can anybody help me, i cant get compiz to work after upgrade to Gutsy | 05:01 |
| bjb1959 | have a friend that has an external usb drive ntfs format that fails to mount from command line or with ntfs-3g config utility. gets an error about not being able to mount /dev/sdc1 and something about windows ntfs marked already in use. any ideas? | 05:01 |
| earl_ | flashplugin is only responsible for whether or not you can see flash video | 05:01 |
| earl_ | i.e. youtube | 05:01 |
| hydrogen | jimmydee: I've already said I use opera. | 05:01 |
| hydrogen | jimmydee: why would I use ies4linux | 05:01 |
| hydrogen | opera is the only solution | 05:01 |
| jimmydee | hydrogen: sorry things are scootin here | 05:01 |
| LivingInX | earl: you also need java for sites like youtube | 05:01 |
| earl_ | jimydee: sudo gdm gives met he same black screen | 05:01 |
| thedefender | so why is Nvidia better | 05:01 |
| chetnick | Can anybody help me, i cant get compiz to work after upgrade to Gutsy | 05:02 |
| cduby1 | !upgrade | 05:02 |
| ubotu | For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes | 05:02 |
| earl_ | livinginX: right. i'm just saying, he's complaining about the wrong problem right now | 05:02 |
| qman | thedefender, nvidia has better driver support, they generally have a higher success rate and better extension support | 05:02 |
| thedefender | i've seen some beautiful proformance come from those Radeons | 05:02 |
| rouben | bjb1959: chances are there are errors on the NTFS disk. It's best to checkdisk it using a Windows box. | 05:02 |
| jimmydee | earl: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and make sure your resolution is right and your video card is right | 05:02 |
| LivingInX | earl_: sorry, misread who typed it ;-) | 05:02 |
| qman | thedefender, three packages cover over 90% of the cards nvidia has ever produced | 05:02 |
| hydrogen | qman: they have traditionally.. ati is opensourcing their driver however, which will gain them lots of support | 05:02 |
| bjb1959 | rouben: I have installed the ntfs utilities in gutsy could I use ntfsfix from that? | 05:03 |
| === lee98632 is now known as lee986321 | ||
| cduby1 | so what do you do if you want to upgrade but these instructions don't work..... heh https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GutsyUpgrades | 05:03 |
| MyWay | when i start my ubuntu 7.10 persistent from the usb pen, the appears with: INITRAMFS), i tried removing quiet and splash and the error is something like this: error_request: I/O error fd0, somebody can help please? | 05:03 |
| earl_ | yeah i have the resolutions set to 1024x768, jimmydee. it's using the ati driver | 05:04 |
| AaronMT | Anyone in here having problems with the new kernel/fglrx (ATI) driver and your computer unable to enter or resume from suspend/hibernate without a crash? | 05:04 |
| jimmydee | try the vesa driver | 05:04 |
| rouben | bjb1959: You could, but I am not sure if ntfsfix would work as well as Windows checkdisk. You might want to check the man page for ntfsfix for warnings like "this is beta code and may blow up your NTFS partition". :) | 05:04 |
| Ubuntu_live | hi i have one question | 05:04 |
| jimmydee | the ati open source driver does not work for all ati cards | 05:04 |
| hydrogen | !ask | Ubuntu_live | 05:04 |
| ubotu | Ubuntu_live: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :) | 05:04 |
| earl_ | AaronMT yeah i've been having trouble with that on my KDE lappy | 05:04 |
| Ubuntu_live | i have ubuntu live cd and i would like see composite | 05:04 |
| MurielGodoi | !question | Ubuntu_live | 05:04 |
| sacater | !ask | Ubuntu_live | 05:04 |
| earl_ | jimmydee: should i try vesa? | 05:05 |
| sacater | MurielGodoi: :o | 05:05 |
| jimmydee | earl: sorry, yeah try vesa | 05:05 |
| bjb1959 | no problem, he has a laptop with vista on it, I'll have him do a checkdisk with that | 05:05 |
| Ubuntu_live | and i can't my computer will restart | 05:05 |
| rat32 | so there is no way i can watch video on 64 bit ? | 05:05 |
| Ubuntu_live | ;/ | 05:05 |
| MurielGodoi | there was a flood of !question :D | 05:05 |
| seamus7 | thedefender: I am having some problems .. i get a white screen upon boot up and am forced to use a gnome failsafe session ... then when i type fglrxinfo I get the following error: fglrx: error while loading shared libraries: libGL.so.1: cannot open shared object file: no such file or directory. | 05:05 |
| Ubuntu_live | i m'sorry | 05:05 |
| jimmydee | rat32: you want shockwave video? or flash? | 05:05 |
| Flannel | Ubuntu_live: You don't need to restart the system, just X, ctrl-alt-backspace | 05:05 |
| earl_ | i'm pretty sure you need to actually install ubuntu to get composite | 05:06 |
| rredd4_ | is wine repo up for amd64 in 7.10? | 05:06 |
| seamus7 | thedefender: I'm also in the #ati channel and asking for help there | 05:06 |
| Flannel | earl_: nope | 05:06 |
| earl_ | oh then disregard that | 05:06 |
| rat32 | jimmydee: well i think i do have shockwave, though id be satisfied if ANY type of video would work | 05:06 |
| earl_ | lol | 05:06 |
| Ubuntu_live | Flannel: i made restart X | 05:06 |
| jimmydee | rat32 sudo apt-get install firefox32 then install the flash driver according to directions | 05:06 |
| Ubuntu_live | and he will restart! | 05:06 |
| rat32 | jimmydee: will that change FF64 to FF32 ? | 05:06 |
| jimmydee | rat32: no it will install a seperate instance | 05:07 |
| lee986321 | um..something just totally messed me up | 05:07 |
| mintLuff | anyone have any ideas on why my gibbon upgrade can't find compiz when i go to the appearances->visual effects menu? | 05:07 |
| lee986321 | brb.. i might have to reload | 05:07 |
| Ubuntu_live | aa i have this is bug this pop up | 05:07 |
| rat32 | jimmydee: so i would have two firefoxes ?!? | 05:07 |
| Ubuntu_live | fgl_glxgears is okey | 05:07 |

| m0u5e | whats the difference between the NV and nvidia driver? | 05:13 |
| === Abitibi is now known as atchout | ||
| zoidberg_ | guys is there a good Gutsy wiki that kinda has intro to everything and making everthing work kinda deal? | 05:13 |
| g_ | jimmydee: and i can use the nvidia-settings app to change the gamma and whatnot so the driver really is functioning | 05:13 |
| zoidberg_ | i know there was one for feisty | 05:13 |
| thompa | Z_o-s-o: restart your network, for me I had to reinstall the driver | 05:13 |
| Z_o-s-o | well ive tried | 05:13 |
| Z_o-s-o | and before it showed up even without the driver | 05:13 |
| rredd4_ | jimmydee read msg please | 05:13 |
| earl_ | Z_o-s-o there' sa restricted driver available for the bcm43xx series i believe | 05:13 |
| Z_o-s-o | but now its not even in lspci | 05:13 |
| Z_o-s-o | i was using it | 05:13 |
| g_ | dpkg-reconfigure makes a total hash of the xorg.conf file too... i don't get it, the install xorg worked perfectly | 05:14 |
| zoidberg_ | guys is there a good Gutsy wiki that kinda has intro to everything and making everthing work kinda deal? | 05:14 |
| Z_o-s-o | i was using the bcm43xx driver with ndiswrapper on feisty | 05:14 |
| Banker | weird | 05:14 |
| thompa | Z_o-s-o: he is right | 05:14 |
| g_ | jimmydee: dpkg-reconfigure makes a total hash of the xorg.conf file too... i don't get it, the install xorg worked perfectly | 05:14 |
| earl_ | you shouldn't need that anymore | 05:14 |
| earl_ | get rid of it | 05:14 |
| Banker | called up earthlink technical support, got some weird person talking into the conversation | 05:14 |
| earl_ | restircted drivers manager, in gutsy, will get you the new driver in like 10 seconds | 05:14 |
| rredd4_ | jimmydee can't get wine repo to show up when I update | 05:14 |
| thompa | Z_o-s-o: do you have to use ndiswrapper? | 05:15 |
| g_ | earl_: unless it doesn't | 05:15 |

| Z_o-s-o | is there any specific reason the wireless card would completely disappear from everywhere? | 05:16 |
| thompa | i got a dvd that will play in one computer but not the other? | 05:16 |

| jimmydee | rredd4_: oh ok, but apt-cache yadda yadda shows wine as a viable package? | 05:24 |
| rredd4_ | yes | 05:24 |
| LivingInX | Monk: which version of Ubuntu are you trying to install? | 05:24 |
| yareckon_ | hi guys, I have a funny issue with kde apps on gutsy | 05:24 |
| yareckon_ | they are not launching at all | 05:24 |
| jimmydee | rredd4_: tried sudo apt-get install wine? | 05:25 |
| yareckon_ | for instance I get the amarok splash screen and then nothing | 05:25 |
| Monk | I just dled driver and typed in some cmds and went into xconfig screen or soemthign | 05:25 |
| yareckon_ | I get nothing for konqueror, kontact, etc.... | 05:25 |
| ckw | I see from nvidias page that there is a legacy driver for for this card ...96.43.01..what i am asking is is this the same driver that installs when i enable it it the restricted drivers manger? | 05:25 |
| jimmydee | monk you need to use the restricted drivers manager to install that driver properly | 05:26 |
| Monk | I will try to install the latest version I guess. | 05:26 |
| Diafic | How do I change the number of virtual desktops? | 05:26 |
| Monk | I tried ubuntu 6.9 before | 05:26 |
| Monk | didn't work out | 05:26 |
| Monk | back to xp | 05:26 |
| yareckon_ | I'm mostly a gnome environment, and I see the kde apps show up in the process list, but they never generate a window | 05:26 |
| LivingInX | Monk: When you do that, you don't have to format. There is a dpkg-reconfigure command you can use. | 05:26 |
| anyanzwa | hi | 05:26 |
| shavex | how do you turn sticky windows off? | 05:26 |
| rwparris2 | hi guys, I just put kubuntu 7.10 on my laptop and now I can't get wireless to work. when I go into the control module and right click my wireless interface and hit "enable", it enables it for 1/2 a second and then goes back to being disabled | 05:26 |
| jimmydee | shavex: windex | 05:26 |

| rwparris2 | hi guys, I just put kubuntu 7.10 on my laptop and now I can't get wireless to work. when I go into the control module and right click my wireless interface and hit "enable", it enables it for 1/2 a second and then goes back to being disabled | 05:29 |

| jrib | shavex: ah that... are you using metacity or compiz? | 05:29 |
| Monk | not now. | 05:29 |

| Monk | I don't have extra compuer with me | 05:29 |
| thompa | i have a dvd plays in one box but not on laptop | 05:29 |
| cduby1 | ciddy, uh, yeah | 05:29 |

| Monk | I want to install ubuntu + nvidia driver + a game on this comp | 05:30 |
| Tommy | hey i just upgraded to gutsy and now my volume is not very loud even with it maxed out, any ideas? | 05:30 |
| LivingInX | Monk: What game? | 05:30 |
| Monk | I can do that when I have extra comp (so I can chat and isntall at the same time)( | 05:30 |
| jrib | shavex: it's in "advanced desktop effect settings" somewhere I believe | 05:30 |
| * xebec tests | 05:30 | |
| Monk | Wolfenstein et | 05:30 |
| * cafuego fails | 05:30 | |
| BHSPitMonkey | I was able to get it back, but this isn't the first time nautilus has just croaked for me in gutsy... and it's happened on a different installation for me. | 05:30 |
| LivingInX | Monk: I used to have it working back on 6.06 Shouldn't be any issue to help you set it up. | 05:31 |
| yareckon_ | BHSPitMonkey, what is happening -- define croaked | 05:31 |
| cduby1 | bah, think I'm staying with Feisty. not worth this kind of headache | 05:31 |
| shavex | jrib, yea... i thought that too... i just cant find the option to take it off... | 05:31 |
| r0b- | Gutsy hasnt given me problems | 05:31 |
| Monk | you know how to install nVidia driver for MX420? | 05:31 |
| Tommy | hey i just upgraded to gutsy and now my volume is not very loud even with it maxed out, any ideas? | 05:31 |
| BHSPitMonkey | yareckon_, desktop icons disappear, file browsers won't open, existing nautilus windows go blank. | 05:31 |
| LivingInX | Gutsy only gave me probs for upgrade. Clean installs are great. | 05:31 |
| cduby1 | LivingInX, upgrade problems here too | 05:32 |
| redt0nia | gutsy installed perfect on my 189$ emachine | 05:32 |
| Monk | Friday night is fine too | 05:32 |
| jrib | shavex: "snapping windows" | 05:32 |
| LivingInX | Monk: I will look up some info for ya. Shouldn't be too hard. I will PM you with my email. | 05:32 |
| switch | ok are there any easy ways to get tvout working? | 05:32 |
| pinkyflinky | whats the command euqla to urpmi opr zypper? | 05:32 |
| cduby1 | and I'm not looking to clean install at this point | 05:32 |
| pinkyflinky | but for ubuntu?? | 05:32 |
| shavex | jrib, o man i found it!!! it was in the wobbly windows section!! it had Snap Inverted checked | 05:32 |
| Monk | ok...that's cool. | 05:32 |
| LivingInX | cduby1: I got everything good with a back up and a clean install. | 05:32 |
| Monk | however, if you were there when I instlal stuff, it would help alot if I run into a problem. | 05:32 |
| pinkyflinky | does anyone know | 05:33 |
| BHSPitMonkey | shavex, hah, I almost forgot that was you. | 05:33 |
| BHSPitMonkey | LivingInX, same. | 05:33 |
| mayfairy | Tommy: Try 'gnome-alsamixer' and check your PCM volume is not too low. Don't need to raise it to 100% cause it will make your sound crack a bit, but some 50-75% should be fine | 05:33 |
| shavex | BHSPitMonkey, lol :) yay for me | 05:33 |
| yareckon_ | BHSPitMonkey, firstly I'm no guru...did you just do the upgrade? | 05:33 |
| cduby1 | LivingInX, I'm sure it's great....I just don't know if I'm feeling that excited about it at this point...... | 05:33 |
| mayfairy | Tommy: I've noticed PCM volume sometimes goes down when using video/music players' normal volume controls | 05:33 |
| cafuego | pinkyflinky: what is "urpmi" ? | 05:33 |
| LivingInX | I am I guess, an experienced noob w/Linux. | 05:33 |
| BHSPitMonkey | yareckon_, this is a clean install. My upgrade produced a problematic system, so I wiped it. | 05:33 |
| LivingInX | cduby: what kind of problems are you having? | 05:33 |
| pinkyflinky | command to install programs thru the console | 05:34 |
| Black-Hand | I found that creating a new partition to install Xubuntu on and not deleting my already very stable Ubuntu installation was the key to keeping me from pulling what little hair I have left, out... | 05:34 |
| Tommy | mayfairy it is maxed and when i boot to my other os the sound works fine. checked in my master volume controls as well as in the apps i use. | 05:34 |
| mayfairy | LivingInX: Aren't we all kinda noobs with Linux? | 05:34 |
| Monk | cool | 05:34 |
| cafuego | pinkyflinky: Oh,. Use apt-get, aptitude or dpkg | 05:34 |
| Monk | would friday night be ok? | 05:34 |
| LivingInX | LoL | 05:34 |
| qwerty121 | Hi! How can i install fonts? | 05:34 |
| BHSPitMonkey | qwerty121, sure. | 05:34 |
| LivingInX | Monk: I have to work late on friday, and early on saturday unfortunately. | 05:34 |
| Monk | 3 hrs earlier than what is right now on friday. | 05:34 |
| Monk | oh | 05:34 |
| Monk | ok | 05:34 |
| mayfairy | Tommy: Now that's strange. Just read someone in our local ubuntu forums having same kind of problems. :| | 05:34 |
| cafuego | qwerty121: Put them in a directory called ~/.fonts | 05:34 |
| cduby1 | LivingInX, upgrade doesn't work | 05:34 |
| redt0nia | wats the diff between xubuntu and installing xfce on ubuntu? | 05:34 |
| Monk | saturday I am working but I can do it at night if that's cool | 05:35 |
| LivingInX | cduby1: At all? | 05:35 |
| cduby1 | nope | 05:35 |
| yareckon_ | BHSPitMonkey, It's not a window manager or video issue is it? | 05:35 |
| qwerty121 | cafuego: is that all? | 05:35 |
| BHSPitMonkey | qwerty121, there's a button within your fonts settings that reads "Go to fonts folder", although you can also just type fonts:/// in a file explorer window. Drag them there. | 05:35 |
| LivingInX | cduby1: did you install all updates? | 05:35 |
| cafuego | qwerty121 pretty much | 05:35 |
| yareckon_ | it's definitely nautilus actually crashing? | 05:35 |
| === slap is now known as perlnoob | ||
| Tommy | i would clean install but im dual booting and that makes it difficult | 05:35 |
| BHSPitMonkey | qwerty121, or you can also drag them into ~/.fonts, as suggested. | 05:35 |
| cduby1 | LivingInX, just as suggested......;) | 05:35 |
| qwerty121 | Thanks BHSPitMonkey and cafuego | 05:36 |

| qwerty121 | One more thing: i can't install the build-essential package. it says mdsum mismatch. is there some way out? | 05:37 |
| yareckon_ | hey BHSPitMonkey, I'm probably in over my head with your issue, it might be permissions or something, but I don't really know where to go with itrry | 05:38 |
| Tommy | does anyone know the command line to install audio drivers? | 05:38 |
| yareckon_ | sorry | 05:38 |
| LivingInX | cduby1: modify the channels, hmmm, I didn't see that part when I did an upgrade. No too sure. | 05:38 |

| LivingInX | My Gutsy is running a good bit quicker. | 05:44 |
| preaction | Gutsy has Xgl and Composite By Default, it's going to run a bit slower, yes | 05:45 |

| Evanlec | nickrud, oh, well i dont know, i just deselected a bunch of languages in make xconfig before compiling my kernel | 06:20 |
| juanbond | How can I uninstall a package? | 06:20 |
| Evanlec | vontux, im not sure, u might try the backports | 06:20 |
| desertc | LivinginX: TY | 06:20 |
| Mitsuo | LivingInX: ok, i did | 06:20 |
| LivingInX | Mitsuo: does it show ssh running? | 06:20 |
| juanbond | I installed Picasa and want to uninstall now. | 06:20 |
| JohnRobert | how can I turn off trackerd whatever it is...it's terrible! | 06:20 |
| rjg | Does anyone know if it is possible that a deb file interferes with modem settings? | 06:20 |
| Flannel | juanbond: Through your favorite package manager | 06:20 |
| tsukasa_ | hey guys how do i change the default program mmsh is associated with? | 06:20 |
| Mitsuo | LivingInX: yea | 06:20 |
| vontux | Evanlec: ok I'll give that a try | 06:20 |
| tsukasa_ | like mmsh:// | 06:20 |
| LivingInX | oopps, sorry mitsuo, bad command. | 06:20 |
| nickrud | Evanlec: that's console level, I'd think. pango and cairo don't work at the kernel elvel | 06:20 |
| tsukasa_ | i dont want totem to open mmsh streams, i want vlc to | 06:20 |

| Nocivo | http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/710 | 06:21 |
| Evanlec | nickrud, yea, that makes sense | 06:21 |
| k1gwb | this is really frustrating..i have desktop effects so the driver is obviously working alright but that "screens and graphics" program in no way allows me to emable the second monitor | 06:21 |
| tsukasa_ | k1gwb, sudo nvidia-settings ? | 06:21 |
| LivingInX | Nocivo: alternate installer = command line install | 06:21 |
| juanbond | Thanks Flannel :) | 06:21 |
| nickrud | Detra: that's why I was suggesting ja , I'm just parroting what I've heard others say | 06:21 |
| Evanlec | juanbond, sudo apt-get remove picasa | 06:21 |
| nickrud | Detra: but I'd guess you would find a lot of english speakers on ja | 06:21 |
| Flannel | LivingInX, Nocivo, no it's not. Its an installer that gives you a whole bunch of options, and uses text menus instead of graphical menus to guide your intsall | 06:21 |
| Detra | nickrud, Ill figure it out ... thx .... | 06:22 |
| juanbond | Thanks Evanlec | 06:22 |
| LivingInX | Mitsuo: sudo /etc/init.d/ssh restart | 06:22 |
| juanbond | What's a good image manager like picasa? | 06:22 |
| desertc | I don't get it. Why would Totem play sound, but not embedded video on Firefox. | 06:22 |
| frantic | man, where do you GET this driver? it's not even on ati's page | 06:22 |
| LivingInX | Flannel: Sorry, I can't speak spanish. Just trying to make it easy for him to understand. | 06:22 |

| Mitsuo | LivingInX: me >safe@office500 box >cable modem | 06:27 |
| desertc | All you guys who don't normally use IRC and are asking for help need to read this: http://reactor-core.org/irc-help.html | 06:27 |
| DesiArnez6 | desertc, or anyone else: Sorry I'll be more specific, I am trying to connect with modem, It connects fine, one page loads, and then it disconnects after 5 seconds | 06:27 |
| Mitsuo | LivingInX: yea, 22 is forwarded to my pc | 06:27 |
| Evanlec | b0lland, right click on panel and hit properties? | 06:27 |
| k1gwb | okay I got both monitors working...wasn't as intuitive as I expected, but it works :) | 06:27 |
| Alarictric | Cyber_Stalker, i searched the forums a bit and found this method and followed it... http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=589075 but i still have no luck | 06:27 |
| frantic | k might as well brush my teeth while these drivers download | 06:27 |
| b0lland | Evanlec: that changes the color of most of the panel, but not the part with the "start menu", clock etc. | 06:28 |
| LivingInX | Mitsuo: Are you registered on this server for PM? | 06:28 |
| Evanlec | sapphy76, what was the average ping time? | 06:28 |
| Mitsuo | LivingInX: eh? | 06:28 |
| sapphy76 | 195ms | 06:28 |
| LivingInX | Mitsuo: Have you registered your username on the freenode server? | 06:28 |
| Evanlec | sapphy76, are u on dial-up? | 06:28 |
| sapphy76 | dsl | 06:28 |

| Nocivo | i can install for console???!!! help me please. | 06:28 |
| Alarictric | nickrud, ill try messing around with the options under the two server sections some more | 06:28 |
| Evanlec | sapphy76, okay, 195ms is pretty high for dsl | 06:28 |
| Mitsuo | LivingInX: nope, i will in a min | 06:29 |
| desertc | DesiArnez6: That's a great description. Unfortunately, I have no idea what the issue might be. I haven't used a modem in over a decade. Good luck finding the answer. | 06:29 |
| Evanlec | Nocivo, can you start speaking properly? | 06:29 |
| sapphy76 | k, is there any ports to open | 06:29 |
| LivingInX | Mitsuo: That is kinda odd. Did you edit any of the options in /etc/ssh/ssh_config or /etc/ssh/sshd_config ??? | 06:29 |
| joebob777as7 | i installed ubuntu on my pc it has an AIW x800 and i installed the ati restricted drivers but compiz doesn't work... can someone give me a hand? | 06:29 |

| FoSsiL | guys help me out here. how can i check what have booted up and what have failed to load at startup??? | 06:29 |
| nickrud | Alarictric: yes, true, on, 1 all are the same | 06:30 |
| Alarictric | they are in two different sections | 06:30 |
| Evanlec | sapphy76, probly doesnt have to do with ports, i would suggest you reboot your dsl modem/pc and disconnect any other pc's from your network except yours and test pingtime again | 06:30 |
| LivingInX | FoSsiL: install BUM | 06:30 |
| Mitsuo | LivingInX: nope | 06:30 |
| LivingInX | BUM Boot Up Manager | 06:30 |
| b0lland | joebob777as7: in what way doesn't it work? | 06:30 |
| Alarictric | i have it in both ServerLayout and ServerFlags | 06:30 |
| nickrud | Alarictric: one other thing I did (don't know if it was required) was add a section Module with Option "glx" | 06:30 |
| LivingInX | Mitsuo: what is the command they are trying to type? | 06:30 |
| Mitsuo | LivingInX: eh? | 06:31 |
| joebob777as7 | b0lland, well when i try compiz --replace it says no whitelisted driver found then reverts back to metacity | 06:31 |
| Alarictric | nickrud, its worth a shot, thanks | 06:31 |
| LivingInX | Mitsuo: How are they trying to connect linux / windows and what command do they use? | 06:31 |
| DesiArnez6 | desertc: thanks, i understand that im isolated in the dialup wasteland ;) I'll figure it out eventually i suppose, until then im stuck uning Windows ME :( Well if anyone else knows what can cause internet connection to drop, there was no problem until I downloaded Netzero, I hope that it didnt change vital settings. How to verify? | 06:31 |
| sapphy76 | oh.. ok.. but its just at start of browsing, very slow, and then it kicks off. Had an issue with firefox todag, seems like it crashes during browsing | 06:31 |
| LivingInX | Desi: Use Win2k, so much better. | 06:31 |
| Alarictric | i already have a line Load "glx" | 06:32 |
| Norcalscubadiver | whats the latest ubuntu release? | 06:32 |
| nickrud | Alarictric: and joebob777as7 I also added fglrx to the whitelist in /usr/bin/compiz (ug, editing in /usr , that stuff needs to be slid into /etc/default) | 06:32 |
| Mitsuo | LivingnX: ssh user@xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx | 06:32 |

| LivingInX | 7.10 Gutsy Gibbon | 06:32 |
| Evanlec | sapphy76, okay, but that could be unrelated, you should be pinging at around 40-80ms to yahoo.com assuming you're in the US | 06:32 |

| joebob777as7 | nickrud, are you telling me that i can fix it by adding fglrx to something in /usr/bin/compiz? | 06:33 |

| niuq | hi i had an error while install xubuntu, it couldnt install the grub | 06:43 |
| Mitsuo | LivingInX: no listen there.. | 06:43 |
| niuq | so there is a way i could load the system ? | 06:43 |
| novacheck | just used mac address filtering it is much better | 06:43 |
| LivingInX | Mitsuo: You have installed openssh-server right? | 06:44 |
| preaction | niuq, the liveCD will let you boot from the first hard drive (it should be the third option) | 06:44 |
| [chr0n0s] | nickrud, i got CLI by putting it in .bashrc | 06:44 |
| preaction | niuq, or you could use the liveCD to try to figure out why grub didn't install | 06:44 |
| niuq | preaction: xubuntu works as livecd? | 06:44 |
| Mitsuo | LivingInX: yea | 06:44 |
| power78 | How come when I click in the scroller on my mouse, it prints random things in my documents? | 06:45 |
| preaction | niuq, i assume you downloaded the livecd | 06:45 |
| magnus | hello ppl | 06:45 |
| magnus | :) | 06:45 |
| LivingInX | Mitsuo: Sorry if that came across condescending. Just trying to make sure all bases are covered. | 06:45 |
| nickrud | power78: that's the middle button paste function, it pastes whatever's highlighted | 06:45 |
| Mitsuo | LivingInX: thats ok :P | 06:45 |
| power78 | nickrud: how can I turn that off? | 06:45 |
| nickrud | power78: don't know, I love it | 06:46 |
| lexu1 | how do I get the windows to stop sticking to the sides of the screen? | 06:46 |
| LivingInX | Mitsuo: Okay, the listen address should be all 0. I misread something. | 06:46 |
| power78 | I keep accidentally clicking it in | 06:46 |
| niuq | preaction: not really sure | 06:46 |

| niuq | preaction: well, text mode? | 06:47 |
| LivingInX | Mitsuo: Ohhhh do the already have a key setup for your machine? | 06:47 |
| lexu1 | how do I get the windows to stop sticking to the sides of the screen? | 06:47 |
| jimmydee | alain: what kind of phone | 06:47 |
| preaction | niuq, did it boot a full desktop environment or was it more of a blue/grey text thingy? | 06:47 |
| Mitsuo | LivingInX: ok, changed it back... | 06:47 |
| niuq | preaction: blue/grey text thingy | 06:47 |
| alain | K800i sonny ericsson | 06:47 |

| DShepherd | lexu1, make sure the snapping plugin is off. | 06:47 |
| jimmydee | alain: sorry I'm no help, motorola guy | 06:47 |
| preaction | niuq, that's the "alternate" installer. which isn't a liveCD, unfortunately. you can use that installer to re-run the grub install if you'd like, but i don't know what else it's capable of | 06:48 |
| LivingInX | Mitsuo: The first time you SSH'ed into your box, did it ask if you wanted to download the key file? A yes or no question from the server. | 06:48 |
| lilmissrocket | back, what is the command line to install WINE with aptitude from the terminal? | 06:48 |
| zeke | hello, i am trying to install alsa-utils and get an error | 06:48 |
| Mitsuo | LivingInX: yea.. | 06:48 |
| preaction | niuq, you could always get the xubuntu liveCD install, of course | 06:48 |
| jimmydee | zeke: define "error" | 06:48 |
| preaction | !grub | niuq | 06:48 |

| mordok | if your cell phone has a "find me" in the menu for blue tooth, try that | 06:48 |
| niuq | preaction: if i use the livecd of xubuntu i could install the grup? | 06:48 |
| LivingInX | Mitsuo: Maybe there is something with the keyfiles on their system. But it shouldn't be just that. | 06:48 |
| gcarrillo | yoyo | 06:48 |
| preaction | niuq, you could install it from the alternate CD just as well, i just don't know how (since i've never used it) | 06:49 |
| zeke | jimmy, while compiling with sudo make, Error 1 occurs | 06:49 |
| nickrud | niuq: you can boot that alternate cd into a recovery mode. Hopefully, just running update-grub && grub-install will get you booting | 06:49 |

| johnyflench | ubotu you are a life saver | 06:50 |

| jimmydee | err sudo apt-get install alsa-utils | 06:50 |

| TimsonC2000 | anybody here ... who add a different disk to a raid5? | 06:52 |
| LivingInX | Mitsuo: Admin did what? | 06:52 |
| preaction | niuq, then once you boot the liveCD you can open a terminal and do "sudo grub-install /dev/hda" (or whatever your hard drive is called) and it should work. otherwise it will give a more cogent error you can paste to this channel | 06:52 |
| lilmissrocket | nickrud: I do now (has had linux for a little more than a day at this point) | 06:52 |
| jimmydee | TimsonC2000: define "Different" | 06:52 |
| Mitsuo | LivingInX: mapped the ports.. if i understood you right | 06:52 |
| nickrud | lilmissrocket: welcome then, the channel's a bit snarky right now for some reason. Enjoy | 06:53 |
| niuq | preaction: i couldnt boot with live cd | 06:53 |
| LivingInX | lilmissrocket: I have had linux installed solely for two years now, and just tonight found out about it. | 06:53 |

| zeke | jimmy, im back and my sound card is still not detected | 06:55 |
| mark_1982 | dones anyone know why my sounds doesnt work?.. | 06:55 |
| mark_1982 | i was working earlier today | 06:55 |
| niuq | preaction: when i tried to boot the system with the livecd appear this message: the display server has been shut down about 6 times, in the last 90 seconds, it is likely something bad is going on, waitint 2 minutes before trying againi on display:0 | 06:55 |
| LivingInX | Mitsuo: Do you have access to the router to check it out? | 06:55 |
| jimmydee | zeke: what kind of sound card is it? | 06:55 |
| mark_1982 | umm | 06:56 |
| Mitsuo | LivingInX: no, nmap says 22 is open.. | 06:56 |
| lilmissrocket | k1gwb: I don't know what's going on at all, but I need WINE to run linux solely on my system. | 06:56 |
| mark_1982 | let me check. i have a dell laptop 640m | 06:56 |
| preaction | niuq, most likely the X server doesn't understand your video card. are you installing the latest version of Xubuntu? | 06:56 |
| jimmydee | you dont need WINE to run linux, wine runs ON linux | 06:56 |
| niuq | preaction: yes i just download it the live cd | 06:57 |
| k1gwb | jimmydee: i think she means thaZt without wine, she won't be able to use linux exclusively (will have to dualboot) | 06:57 |
| LivingInX | Mitsuo: Did you nmap you internal or external IP? | 06:57 |
| zeke | jimmy, intel ich7 | 06:57 |
| lilmissrocket | jimmydee: what i mean to say is there is only one program I need to be able to go completely without windows | 06:57 |
| lilmissrocket | k1gwb has it right | 06:57 |
| Mitsuo | LivingInX: external | 06:57 |
| iNoob | helpzor | 06:57 |

| troyoz | fresh install of gutsy, nvidia fx5200 video card, nvidia-glx-new, with compiz enabled i get black windows when i have a few open say 10 or more. Any suggestions? | 06:57 |
| k1gwb | lilmissrocket: i wasn't following along...what's the problem with wine? | 06:57 |
| LivingInX | Mitsuo: I hate to forfeit this one, but I am thinking I am temporarily stuck. | 06:57 |
| jimmydee | lilmissrocket: I'd steer you toward crossover if youre looking for that | 06:57 |
| preaction | niuq, then i'm afraid we've reached the end of my knowlege: might want to ask the rest of the channel what could make X not start | 06:57 |
| iNoob | did i get kicked | 06:58 |
| TimsonC2000 | jimmydee - different ... old disks are 300 gb ... and new one is 320 gb | 06:58 |
| iNoob | can anyone help me with creating a user | 06:58 |
| iNoob | new user | 06:58 |
| k1gwb | lilmissrocket: another thing to consider that works beautifully compared to wine is virtualbox in seamless mode...if you have a fairly robust computer. that way ALL windows applications work, almost without exception | 06:58 |
| jimmydee | TimsonC2000: it will only recognize 300 of the new drive in the raid5 | 06:58 |
| lilmissrocket | k1gwb: I have a dependency error on install of WINE. There is one program I need to make this work for me - Blackboard Back pack which I use for taking notes...without WINE or similar I have to dualboot | 06:58 |
| lilmissrocket | http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/41902/plain/ | 06:59 |
| preaction | iNoob, there's a nice GUI application under System > Administration > Users and Groups | 06:59 |
| LivingInX | nuig: Try dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 06:59 |
| ompaul | iNoob, Menu: system -> administration -> users & groups | 06:59 |
| jimmydee | TimsonC2000: but it will work fine | 06:59 |
| LivingInX | nuig: Might need to use sudo | 06:59 |
| troyoz | iNoob, just type 'sudo adduser username' in a terminal window | 06:59 |
| desertc | Anyone remember that "aplay" command to test your sound ? | 06:59 |
| iNoob | tytyt | 06:59 |
| iNoob | both | 06:59 |
| desertc | Suddenly my sound stopped working and I can't figure out why | 06:59 |
| TimsonC2000 | jimmydee - yes the is correct ... but fdisk can't part in the correct size - some bytes different also I part into 300 GB | 06:59 |
| k1gwb | lilmissrocket: sudo apt-get check ...tried that? | 06:59 |
| hylinux | hi, guys. I have two issue in new ubuntu version. 1, how to change the gnome-session backgroud color. this background is after input the username and password, and system starting into the gnome. | 07:00 |

| mark_1982 | just drag it to the places thing | 07:00 |
| LivingInX | lilmissrocket: there are some really cool note taking applications for linux. | 07:00 |
| mark_1982 | drag the fodler you want | 07:00 |
| niuq | hi why x server could not start with livecd xubuntu? | 07:00 |
| jimmydee | zeke: did I miss what kind of sound card you have? | 07:00 |
| TimsonC2000 | how can i get the correct size on the 320 gb disk | 07:00 |
| LivingInX | gman: Check your home folder | 07:00 |
| desertc | mark_1982: Try sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart | 07:00 |
| qman | ok, thanks | 07:00 |
| bz3 | is it just me or is security.ubuntu down/slow?? | 07:00 |

| mark_1982 | ok ill try that | 07:00 |
| lilmissrocket | livinginx: the only thing that holds me down is the connectivity to WebCT at my school, which is what I really need | 07:00 |
| Mitsuo | LivingInX: thanks :P i will try to figure it out later.. | 07:01 |
| magnetron | !ask | hylinux | 07:01 |
| ubotu | hylinux: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :) | 07:01 |
| jimmydee | TimsonC2000: replace all the drives with 320's raid5 steps down to the lowest common denominator | 07:01 |
| qman | ah, there we go, thanks | 07:01 |
| LivingInX | Mitsuo: Sorry man. | 07:01 |
| lilmissrocket | livinginx: unfortunately it does not work in vista as well as it should | 07:01 |
| LivingInX | lilmissrocket: Ahh, I getcha | 07:01 |
| DShepherd | nickrud, I didnt know you ubuntu blacklist cards in compiz. Thanks for the tip.. indirectly :-) | 07:01 |
| DShepherd | -you | 07:01 |
| Mitsuo | LivingInX: thats fine :) | 07:01 |
| desertc | LivingInX: Don't kill yourself, man. You know Dell Technical Support is sending people to #ubuntu so they don't have to fix linux problems... | 07:01 |
| hylinux | ubotu: yeah. my question is: how to change my background color? | 07:01 |
| mark_1982 | desertc do i have to restart after i do that? | 07:01 |
| zeke | jimmy, it is the card that comes with the 82801H chipset | 07:02 |
| desertc | mark_1982: You should never need to restart Linux, if you know what the problem is | 07:02 |
| k1gwb | lilmissrocket: how good is your computer? cpu/ramwise | 07:02 |
| nickrud | DShepherd: np, I didn't either. I looked all over /etc for it, before I found a ref to it on google. A _bad_ place to put that blacklist | 07:02 |
| hylinux | ubotu: that background is after I had inputted username and password, when system starting the gnome desktop. | 07:02 |
| desertc | mark_1982: Is your sound working now? | 07:02 |
| LivingInX | desertc: I just posted on the lottalinuxlinks.com forums about what I could give back to the community since I can't program and I live in the boonies. | 07:02 |
| hylinux | ubotu: could you help me? | 07:02 |
| jimmydee | zeke: ummmm 82801H by whom? | 07:02 |
| ompaul | hylinux, you are talking to the channel bot | 07:02 |
| zeke | intel | 07:02 |
| hylinux | hrmm. | 07:02 |
| lilmissrocket | k1gwb: good but not great. intel dual core pentium, 1 gb ram, ati video card of some sort | 07:02 |
| hylinux | sorry. | 07:02 |
| k1gwb | lilmissrocket: cause you could just use your windows license to run windows in a virtual machine within ubuntu rather than dulbooting | 07:02 |
| ompaul | !ubotu | 07:02 |
| hylinux | ompaul: could you help me about my question? | 07:02 |

| desertc | LivingInX: System76 is a Canonical partner, and I think they have great support. | 07:03 |
| jimmydee | zeke: ewww I'm at a loss there, try googling for a howto | 07:03 |
| DShepherd | nickrud, ok. why is it a bad place to put that black list? | 07:03 |
| LivingInX | desertc: When/if I can ever afford to buy a lappy, I am getting one from them. | 07:03 |
| zeke | haha ive been trying. ill keep looking | 07:03 |
| pvt_harv | zeke: | 07:03 |
| lilmissrocket | k1gwb: what kind of system requirements would I need to have to run in a virtual environment as I still have a good xp license that i know BB is more compatible with | 07:03 |
| nickrud | DShepherd: because the next time you get a compiz update, that file will be overwritten | 07:04 |
| hylinux | ompaul: thanks, my question is : after I had inputted the username and password on gdm input dialog, the system will go into the gnome desktop, in this time. there is a yellow background. | 07:04 |
| DShepherd | nickrud, indeed. | 07:04 |
| * pvt_harv likes ubuntu gutsy gibbon a lot! | 07:04 | |
| hylinux | I had changed gnome desktop background, and gdm background. | 07:04 |
| * pvt_harv dances under the rain with ubuntu | 07:04 | |
| hylinux | but I can't change this background. . | 07:04 |
| ompaul | hylinux, I actually read all your input there was no need to repeat it, so what you do is, right click on the desktop and choose ;-) | 07:04 |
| zeke | pvt_harv, gutsy gibbon would be a lot better if my sound worked. | 07:04 |
| zeke | it works on VISTA | 07:04 |
| hylinux | ompaul: no | 07:04 |
| zeke | hahahaha | 07:04 |
| nickrud | DShepherd: policy is, files in /etc don't get overwritten if they've been changed by the user; files in /usr are not protected | 07:05 |
| k1gwb | lilmissrocket: the specs you outlined would run a vm alright, you'd just wanna install xp and allocate it about 192 mb at first then turn off all of the effects and everything in it then probably bring it down to 128...xp runs ok with 128 in a virtual machine in my experience | 07:05 |
| jimmydee | zeke: one minute...researching | 07:05 |
| mark_1982 | so my sound isnt working after do ing the command sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart | 07:05 |
| hylinux | ompaul: you can try this. whatever, I can't change that part background. | 07:05 |
| DShepherd | nickrud, ok. | 07:05 |
| mark_1982 | should i just try restarting?.. | 07:05 |
| lilmissrocket | k1gwb:sounds complicated | 07:05 |
| ompaul | hylinux, are you talking about the splash screen between logging in and actually using gnome? | 07:05 |
| hylinux | LivingInx: after gdm, before gnome desktop work. | 07:05 |
| lexu3 | why is the network manager so unstable? | 07:05 |
| DShepherd | nickrud, i seee why its a bad bad place too. should i post a bug? | 07:05 |
| hylinux | ompaul: yeah. | 07:06 |
| bz3 | wow lots of problems tonight: http://www.internetpulse.net/ | 07:06 |
| LivingInX | hylinux: hmm, not too sure, sorry. | 07:06 |
| ompaul | lexu3, let me guess you are using wireless | 07:06 |
| === Kinks_ is now known as Kinks | ||
| bz3 | that explains alot | 07:06 |
| desertc | mark_1982: What happens when you run "aplay" ? | 07:06 |
| hylinux | it seem to splash screen. | 07:06 |
| k1gwb | it's not... I use virtual machines a lot, they're really not hard at all, I can walk you through it if you'd like | 07:06 |
| lexu3 | ompaul: yes..... | 07:06 |
| giesen | are they actually gonna fix the problems with the synaptics touchpad driver at some point? | 07:06 |
| ompaul | !splash | hylinux | 07:06 |
| mark_1982 | i think what happend was i put my laptop in standby and it froze when i took it out and then the sound didnt work | 07:06 |
| ubotu | hylinux: To change the Gnome splash screen, use !gnome-splashscreen-manager or change the GConf key /apps/gnome-session/options/splash_image using !gconf-editor. | 07:06 |
| LivingInX | desertc: This is also fun :-D | 07:06 |
| nickrud | DShepherd: yes | 07:06 |
| lexu3 | ompaul: I am trying to anyhow... | 07:06 |
| DShepherd | nickrud, ok | 07:06 |
| giesen | I've been living through this problem for 4 releases now | 07:06 |
| ompaul | lexu3, then it is a driver issue for your machine ;-) | 07:06 |
| lexu3 | ompaul: but its hopeless | 07:06 |
| hylinux | ompaul: ok, let me try do it. | 07:06 |
| ompaul | lexu3, try madwifi | 07:06 |
| hylinux | thanks | 07:06 |
| lexu3 | ompaul: but it was working perfectly with Feisty | 07:06 |
| mark_1982 | its not doing anything | 07:06 |
| lilmissrocket | k1gwb that would be superb | 07:06 |
| lexu3 | ompaul: then after the upgrade to Gutsy its all wacked | 07:07 |
| nickrud | DShepherd: I should have this afternoon, but was rushed (billing time to setting up ati is frowned upon at work ;) | 07:07 |
| ompaul | lexu3, remove it and reinstall it to "reapply" the hooks | 07:07 |
| lexu3 | ompaul: I don't understand | 07:07 |
| LivingInX | nickrud: LoL | 07:07 |
| hylinux | !apxs | 07:07 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about apxs - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 07:07 |
| lexu3 | ompaul: remove it? | 07:07 |
| mark_1982 | right now tracks of music are playing but no soound | 07:07 |
| ompaul | lexu3, the driver and reapply it | 07:07 |
| hylinux | ompaul: and which package include the apxs? | 07:08 |
| hylinux | ompaul: thanks | 07:08 |
| LivingInX | mark_1982: What sound card do you have again? | 07:08 |
| hylinux | ompaul: I had install the arputils | 07:08 |
| threefcata | can anyone help me on problem with upgrading to gusty? | 07:08 |
| k1gwb | lilmissrocket: okay not in the official support channel, it's kinda offtopic. where? | 07:08 |
| lexu3 | ompaul: but I never installed a driver for it..... Ubuntu just installed it auto | 07:08 |
| hylinux | ompaul: but I can't find out this program. | 07:08 |
| lilmissrocket | k1gwb I am in your private channel | 07:08 |
| mark_1982 | sygmatel audio | 07:08 |
| mark_1982 | it was working earlier today though | 07:08 |
| LivingInX | mark_1982: and what audio player are you using right now? | 07:08 |
| mark_1982 | i dont know what the deal is | 07:08 |
| ompaul | lexu3, tell the nm to disable the wireless and start again | 07:08 |

| mark_1982 | no sound at all | 07:09 |

| senseibaka | i just installed 7.10 :) | 07:10 |
| jimmydee | zeke answer your messages | 07:10 |
| LivingInX | mark_1982: Try stopping the player, then checking your preferences. System sounds are run through ESD if I am not mistaken. | 07:10 |
| senseibaka | i feel special | 07:10 |
| desertc | mark_1982: You could try to reboot, since we're not experts, apparently. | 07:10 |
| ompaul | lexu3, open nm and beside the item you want to disable tick the box | 07:10 |

| AirstrikeIvanov | What is the most commonly used mail server for Linux-based servers? | 07:35 |
| [chr0n0s] | tonyyarusso, you know how to use vncserver ? | 07:35 |
| jimmydee | courier, maybe? | 07:35 |
| tonyyarusso | [chr0n0s]: noooo..... | 07:35 |
| [chr0n0s] | AirstrikeIvanov, sendmail | 07:35 |
| Necrosan | is there any video editors for ubuntu? | 07:35 |
| AirstrikeIvanov | I'm trying to host email on my own domain | 07:36 |
| AirstrikeIvanov | Sendmail never worked for me | 07:36 |
| LivingInX | Necrosan: There are quite a few. | 07:36 |
| lightstar | AirstrikeIvanov, , postfix | 07:36 |
| agscala | mmm I figured out my problem | 07:36 |
| knighthawk | AirstrikeIvanov, sendmail | 07:36 |
| [chr0n0s] | anyone knows how to use vncserver, vncviewer | 07:36 |

| knighthawk | Necrosan have you tried Kino? | 07:36 |
| agscala | norma? | 07:36 |
| agscala | normal? | 07:36 |
| AirstrikeIvanov | Once again: Sendmail itself doesn't interest me, I know nothing about it and I can't set it up to use MySQL as far as I know | 07:36 |
| knighthawk | AirstrikeIvanov, then try elm | 07:36 |
| dellph | hello ppl. can somebody give me a repo for freenx in gutsy??? | 07:36 |
| AirstrikeIvanov | I was looking at either Postfix, or Qmail | 07:36 |
| jimmydee | [chr0n0s] I got a pretty good handle on vncserver | 07:37 |
| Putri_Maniezz | www anime com | 07:37 |
| knighthawk | AirstrikeIvanov, Qmail is *awesome* but a PITA to set up. once set up I've not had to bother with it for about 4 years now though | 07:37 |
| AirstrikeIvanov | Wow | 07:37 |
| jimmydee | deeproot mail server is nice and easy | 07:37 |
| AirstrikeIvanov | I want to host on my own domain, but my main problem is that Gmail and other big names reject my servers' emails | 07:38 |
| Sevk | Wine direct wow ,can run. | 07:38 |
| jimmydee | AirstrikeIvanov: turn on smtp authentication | 07:38 |
| AirstrikeIvanov | jimmydee: I had used Postfix combined with Courier IMAP/POP together | 07:39 |
| AirstrikeIvanov | This time I am going to do Qmail for sending, but now what do I use for IMAP and POP? | 07:39 |
| AirstrikeIvanov | stick with Courier? | 07:39 |
| jimmydee | AirstrikeIvanov: I use deeproot mail server, google it, its groovy | 07:39 |

| DesiArnez6 | LivingInX, It installs most files to opt/... then a few to usr/share... than the actual "executable" to the root Desktop, originally moved the file "NetZero Internet" with the mv command and sudo to my home desktop, and then I reinstalled, so it is now in both places | 07:45 |

| LivingInX | cube_: try burning your Gutsy CD at a lower speed | 07:54 |
| jimmydee | maja: did you give it a hostname in the dernit I forget the name, one sec | 07:54 |
| cube_ | what speed? | 07:54 |
| cube_ | i think i did it at 52x :( | 07:55 |
| teddy_ | i have a Acomdata 500 gb hdd [WDC made drive.] I can not get it to work with Ubuntu, I was told to run this program to remove the CD partition and I did. | 07:55 |
| cube_ | took like 3 minutes :0 | 07:55 |
| maja | jimmydee: no there isn't a realhost name yet | 07:55 |
| LivingInX | cube_: I do all my burning on CD-Rs about 18x cause I know it will work better. Also, where did you DL your ISO file from? | 07:55 |
| qman | cube_, try around 12x or 24x | 07:55 |
| AyueLee_ | f | 07:55 |
| Necrosan | what's a video editor that can edit .ogg on gutsy? | 07:55 |
| cube_ | somewhere off of ubuntu.com i dunno it was in texas | 07:56 |
| LivingInX | cube_: Yeah, I would try burning at a lower speed. | 07:56 |
| cube_ | 200kb a sec so i chose that one | 07:56 |
| cube_ | it came up with a bunch of detection errors though | 07:56 |
| qman | the thing about burning discs at 52x is that it's more error prone; combine that with cheap media, and you just get bad burns sometimes, especially when the data is highly compressed, as it is on the ubuntu install discs | 07:56 |
| DesiArnez6 | jimmydee, or LivingInX, probably a beginners question, but how is it that I actually open something using the terminal? such as a run command or something similar? | 07:57 |

| nakanaka | nick_, you can search for them in synaptic package manager. for example libpng's dev package is called libpng12-dev | 08:03 |
| jimmydee | teddy_: I'm not exactly following you, a cd partition on a hard drive? | 08:03 |
| nick_ | ok, found libpng | 08:03 |

| DesiArnez6 | LivingInX, jimmydee, thanks, okay, I was able to open in root, but I dont wish to leave root open, and when I close the terminal window, Netzero also closes, since it was opened with the terminal, Is there a way to change permissions to allow them to be assigned to my regular user? | 08:05 |

| Evanlec | infornography, try playing videos with compiz disabled ;) | 09:44 |
| BBHoss | joerack: it works now ive heard | 09:44 |
| BrendanJ | steve_j, evanlec, that's a good idea, but everything seems to be working fine except the 1680x1050 resolution, and I only have one widescreen monitor. I guess I could see if autodetection works on the other monitors | 09:44 |

| ech0dish | hi | 09:45 |
| BBHoss | 8.42.3 | 09:45 |
| DesiArnez6 | Juno: I have noticed that VLC plays most media for me, what doesn't mplayer or realplayer usually cover | 09:45 |
| infornography | surely there is a better way than that | 09:45 |
| ech0dish | is there a way i can record all my incoming email addresses in thunderbird? | 09:45 |
| Bonster | Juno: rythmbox is good | 09:45 |
| joerack | BBHoss: Not from what I'm reading on major forums | 09:45 |
| Evanlec | BrendanJ, that or try the monitor on another machine...you want to determine if its your monitor or videocard that may be damaged | 09:45 |
| SaeidZebardas1 | hi | 09:45 |
| SaeidZebardas1 | how to Look Screen by terminal? | 09:46 |
| BrendanJ | that's a good idea | 09:46 |
| Evanlec | infornography, you wont know unless u try, it may not be related to compiz at all | 09:46 |
| Juno | Well I've always used Winamp in windows, and I'm trying to switch over to linux, but the media players that came with my install dont really please me. | 09:46 |
| === CoSkTTgde is now known as Co_Sk_TT_gde | ||
| teddy_ | jimmydee --back again...i took the HDD out of the usb to SATA case and i hooked the HDD to my computers controller and Ubuntu see the drive and i can read and write to it. | 09:46 |
| Juno | I'd really like something very similar to winamp if possible. | 09:46 |
| jimmydee | juno try amarok | 09:46 |
| === Co_Sk_TT_gde is now known as CoSkTTgde | ||
| BrendanJ | Juno, you could try XMMS | 09:46 |
| SaeidZebardas1 | how to Look Screen by terminal? | 09:46 |
| BrendanJ | it's basically a WinAmp clone | 09:46 |
| SaeidZebardas1 | any one | 09:46 |
| teddy_ | jimmydee why is it that my USB to SATA case will not work with Ubuntu? | 09:46 |
| Bonster | Juno: xmms but i dont think u need that on linux | 09:46 |
| infornography | oh that, yeah I did try that, and its only a problem when compiz is running | 09:46 |
| flokuehn | Juno: than you should try xmms as BrendanJ mentioned before | 09:46 |
| BrendanJ | the interface is almost exactly thesame | 09:46 |
| SaeidZebardas1 | :-( | 09:46 |
| BBHoss | joerack: it is currently on the driver blacklist | 09:46 |
| flokuehn | Juno: but its kde application | 09:46 |
| mcp_ | erUSUL, ok, thanks. Due to your rather technical explanation, i assume you know what you talk about. I've tried 2 sata controllers (old ones, i have to admitt), one integrater in the VIA K8T800 chipset, and a separate SIL 3114 that I've also onboard. Maybe both of them are evil. I hope i've more luck with the ide-interface. Thanks for your response. | 09:47 |
| Juno | Does XMMS play video also? | 09:47 |
| jimmydee | teddy: linux has issues with sata | 09:47 |
| lenny | jimmydee: apt-get says hplip already installed | 09:47 |
| Juno | I can run a KDE on gNOME right? | 09:47 |
| BBHoss | joerack: it will need to be whitelisted before it loads probably | 09:47 |
| Juno | or xfce? | 09:47 |
| Bonster | dont think so | 09:47 |
| Evanlec | infornography, okay so you've isolated the problem, should be able to google some stff about compiz and video playback issues | 09:47 |
| flokuehn | Juno: yes you can | 09:47 |
| Bonster | only music | 09:47 |
| BrendanJ | xmms isn't that good at video | 09:47 |
| infornography | it plays videos either way, but if I do it with compiz enabled the video and the control interface end up on separate desktops | 09:47 |
| jimmydee | lenny ok one sec | 09:47 |
| DesiArnez6 | Juno: I occasionally use XMMS which looks almost exactly like Winamp, It plays MP3 but not AAC+ streams | 09:47 |
| Bonster | xmms pretty lame on gnome | 09:47 |
| Evanlec | infornography, maybe turn off window snapping? | 09:47 |
| Juno | desiarnez6: eh... the main thing I use is AAC+ streams ;) | 09:47 |
| dystopianray | is anyone else getting gpg errors for the security repo on apt-get update? | 09:48 |

| CCB0x45 | you wanna see what syslog spat out | 09:48 |
| CCB0x45 | before it hung the system? | 09:48 |
| kalin | sure | 09:48 |
| BBHoss | joerack: no i mean that fglrx is on the blacklist with compiz | 09:48 |
| Juno | I mean I know theres a shitton of media players, but I'd like one thats just all around versital | 09:48 |
| kalin | i just found mine is saying: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth1: link is not ready | 09:48 |
| CCB0x45 | it got to stage 2 of 5 | 09:48 |
| BBHoss | but shouldnt compiz work with an X800? | 09:49 |
| BBHoss | is supports AIGLX | 09:49 |
| Flynsarmy | Has anyone else noticed that ubuntu chews up a hell of alot more battery life than xp does? | 09:49 |
| CCB0x45 | then did setting sw wep key about 10 times | 09:49 |
| teddy_ | jimmydee so what you are talking about is the chipset that interfaces the USB to SATA inside the external case. | 09:49 |
| DesiArnez6 | Juno: Same here, for AAC+ the only thing that has worked for me is VLC and I have tried many, VLC is my primary, (and I do alot of streaming) | 09:49 |
| CCB0x45 | then NetworkManager: old device wlan0 activating, wont change | 09:49 |
| Evanlec | Flynsarmy, it shouldnt if power management and cpu-scaling is configured correctly | 09:49 |
| khelll | i have ext3 partition that i want to resize , but this partition is mounted to / | 09:49 |
| Juno | can I get VLC from the repos? | 09:49 |
| BBHoss | apt-get install vlc | 09:50 |
| Juno | rgr that | 09:50 |
| khelll | i have ext3 partition that i want to resize , but this partition is mounted to / , what to do? | 09:50 |
| Evanlec | vlc will play anything, its amazing ;p | 09:50 |

| znejk_ | how should i set up my new samsung 2032bw monitor when there is no driver listed in "screens and graphics" ? | 09:50 |
| Flynsarmy | Evanlec: I'm using the live cd to run gutsy and it's just sitting there idling. appaerntly i have around 2.5hours of battery. on xp when it's idling i get 5 | 09:50 |
| Evanlec | khelll, bott from livecd, u can resize it there | 09:50 |
| Bonster | too bad VLC didnt make a MCE type | 09:50 |
| Bonster | that would be leet | 09:51 |
| dystopianray | is anyone able to succesfully apt-get update on gutsy? I've been getting gpg errors for days | 09:51 |
| Juno | Another question.. if I install the windows version of Skype using wine, would my webcam work with it? | 09:51 |
| Evanlec | Flynsarmy, yea well thats because you dont have any power management setup when running from livecd | 09:51 |
| Juno | dystopianray: i just did a moment ago without a problem | 09:51 |
| switch | how can i had a in option into grub so i can boot into command line ubuntu? | 09:51 |
| Bonster | get linux skype loLS | 09:51 |

| Evanlec | Flynsarmy, you should be able to get equal or better battery life with ubuntu as with windows, as far as i know | 09:52 |
| Bonster | theres always workarounds | 09:52 |
| Bonster | i think i saw 1 up on screencast.ubuntu.com for skype | 09:52 |
| jimmydee | lenny: I'm not alot of help here...I cant find hplip anywhere in gnome | 09:53 |
| dystopianray | why have I been getting constant gpg errors from the security repo for days?? | 09:53 |
| DesiArnez6 | jimmydee: I figured thats why it said permission denied for pap and chap secrets. Could that be the reason though that I can't connect to regular internet ISP? Does GNOME PPP need to run as sudo somehow through terminal. I wonder why this is no longer automatic | 09:53 |
| Juno | bonster: link didnt work? | 09:53 |
| Evanlec | dystopianray, cuz ur gpg keys arent correct? | 09:53 |

Has anyone got another idea, don't you have the same problem, or is it just a few people? I found many others with the same issue. Why is the "Hide all windows and show desktop" line blued out in ccsm/genera | 09:53 |
| Bonster | is there | 09:53 |
| dystopianray | Evanlec: they're unchanged since i installed gutsy | 09:53 |
| Evanlec | dystopianray, did ya look? | 09:54 |
| jimmydee | pap and chap secrets should be root only files | 09:54 |
| dystopianray | Evanlec: how can I check? | 09:54 |
| teddy_ | jimmydee so what you are talking about is the chipset that interfaces the USB to SATA inside the external case. | 09:54 |

| jimmydee | notgod start by deleting xorg.conf without backups lol | 09:55 |

| DesiArnez6 | jimmydee: ok I am successfully connected on the ubuntu computer, I hope that I dont always have to enter the terminal just to use gnomeppp with sudo. Is there a way to make Gnome PPP have the sudo priviliges that it apparently needs by just clicking on it | 10:06 |

| ozzloy | Shapeshifter: i came into the conversation late. hopefully i'm not misleading. what is it that you want to do? | 10:33 |
| albech | any news on fixing the sound input? im still getting an error when trying to detect my microphone | 10:34 |
| SleepingSloth | has anyone else had video crashing problems with compiz-fusion on 7.10 ? | 10:35 |
| Shapeshifter | ozzloy: I'd like to have a file browser which has 1 file tree and 2 panes, like this http://images.snapfiles.com/screenfiles/xplorer2.gif | 10:35 |
| === TheDreamer is now known as Youri | ||
| mayfairy | Anyone played Neverwinter nights 2 on ubuntu? I was wondering whether I could make it work on my machine. | 10:35 |
| ozzloy | Shapeshifter: interesting. i've never seen that before. does the tree correspond to the left or right pane? | 10:36 |
| flokuehn | mayfairy: yes you can | 10:36 |
| ozzloy | or ... neither | 10:36 |
| gogeta | SleepingSloth nope but you can turn it off if its being falky | 10:36 |
| mayfairy | flokuehn: Really? :O | 10:36 |
| flokuehn | mayfairy: there should be an installer anywhere around the internet | 10:36 |
| SleepingSloth | gogeta - turn off compiz? | 10:36 |
| gogeta | SleepingSloth i just turned mine off couse i prefer perforance | 10:36 |
| gogeta | SleepingSloth yea | 10:36 |
| mayfairy | Then there's a matter of making it work. It would be kinda expensive to buy the game and then notice I can't make it work | 10:36 |
| Shapeshifter | ozzloy: the tree always controls the pane you last clicked in | 10:36 |
| ozzloy | Shapeshifter: also, i have no idea how to do that. konqueror has a bajillion options, like everything in kde, so ... maybe | 10:36 |
| flokuehn | mayfairy: but i have to look for it too, so i´ll tell if and where i found it. | 10:37 |
| SleepingSloth | gogeta, how do you turn it off without rebooting| | 10:37 |
| jimmydee | seen one wobbly window youve seen em all | 10:37 |
| veelos | Hello | 10:37 |
| royubuntu | Hi, | 10:37 |
| gogeta | SleepingSloth in apperance options | 10:37 |
| Marcus_ | hi | 10:37 |
| gogeta | SleepingSloth you will see normal enhanced and off | 10:37 |
| veelos | Is Kubuntu and Xubuntu able to read and write NTFS like Ubuntu?? | 10:37 |
| SleepingSloth | gogeta, i see, thanks | 10:37 |
| mayfairy | Ya.. found ubuntuforums NWN2 thread | 10:37 |
| Shapeshifter | ozzloy it's such a great file browser for windows... it has many good and useful features like if you double-click into empty space that means "go up" and so on... | 10:37 |
| Bonster | !evolution | 10:37 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about evolution - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 10:37 |
| albech | veelos: yes | 10:38 |
| veelos | great | 10:38 |
| DesiArnez6 | jimmydee: sorry I missed last post, I didnt realize you didnt have much pppexperience, I really appreciate the help that you gave, without it I wouldnt even be connected no, the rest is just minor finishing touches to make the process more simple. I am just glad to be connected | 10:38 |
| mirak | hi, anyone knows a repository with a mp3 encoder enabled mencoder ? | 10:38 |
| fiveofoh | veelos: Yeah, just install the same things | 10:38 |
| fiveofoh | Is ntfs3g the current favorite? | 10:38 |
| royubuntu | Am I right to say if I used sudo apt-get to install something, the file must be appear at the reposite | 10:38 |
| gogeta | mirak install the restreted package | 10:38 |
| ozzloy | Shapeshifter: sorry, i don't do much visual directory walking, so i really don't know | 10:38 |
| jimmydee | well if its not in the repos roy, you go hungry | 10:39 |
| gogeta | mirak comes with all that stuff mp3 dvd codecs flash java | 10:39 |
| Marcus_ | Im having trouble partitioning right for a dual boot | 10:39 |
| flokuehn | mayfairy: follow this link and you can find an installer for installing it under debian and ubuntu. it should work properly | 10:39 |
| jimmydee | ubuntu-restricted-extras | 10:39 |
| SleepingSloth | gogeta, do you know how to restart video - anything i try to play now (until i reboot) looks the same - pink blue and yellow lines. something seems to have been crashed by compiz/totem, and i dont want to reboot unless i have to | 10:39 |
| gogeta | SleepingSloth ctrl alt backspace will restart x | 10:39 |
| Alatius | fiveofoh: I believe ntfs-3g works best, yes, at least last I checked... | 10:40 |
| royubuntu | jimmydee: sorry I have limited vocaubuary, do not understand what u mean | 10:40 |
| SleepingSloth | gogeta, yeah, i just want to re-initialise video playback, or something like that | 10:40 |
| ozzloy | Shapeshifter: the only things that come to mind are: write the changes to some existing file browser; get this file browser working using wine and then use some hax to use it to browse your linux stuff | 10:40 |
| flokuehn | mayfairy: you can also watch at the howto on bioware.com | 10:40 |
| funy_girl | PanJul | 10:40 |
| Marcus_ | when i create a logical partition and make an extended and a swap but the swap allways fails | 10:40 |
| jimmydee | yes, the file has to be in the repository for it to work roy | 10:40 |
| Shapeshifter | if I install konqueror, is there something I just take care of so I don't mess up something on gnome? | 10:40 |
| ozzloy | Shapeshifter: barring the possibility that some file browser already does these things | 10:40 |
| matt1982 | hey guys is there a good place to check TV tuner compatablity? Im think a hauppage Nova T | 10:40 |
| gogeta | SleepingSloth ctrl alt backspace restarts x you will simply get kicked back to login | 10:40 |
| gogeta | SleepingSloth should restart the video | 10:41 |
| ozzloy | Shapeshifter: try "sudo apt-get install konquerer" | 10:41 |
| royubuntu | thanks mr Jimmydee | 10:41 |
| Shapeshifter | ozzloy: I just found this: looks just right http://rommel.parsed.nl/temp/konqueror-splitview.png | 10:41 |
| jimmydee | the hauppage wintv works wonderfully | 10:41 |
| flokuehn | mayfairy: sorry i did an mistake. i just read neverwinter nights. i forgot the "2". i dont know if thre is an ways to install and play nwn2 | 10:41 |
| ozzloy | Shapeshifter: it will probably have a bajillion dependencies | 10:41 |
| SleepingSloth | gogeta, , yes, i know - i dont want to start a new x session unless i need to - i just want to re-initialise video | 10:41 |
| gogeta | SleepingSloth and now compiz is off it shouldent get funky again | 10:41 |
| ozzloy | Shapeshifter: hey, that does indeed look like the other one! | 10:41 |
| cherva | does (hd1,0) in grub's menu.lst equals /dev/hdb1 ? | 10:41 |
| jimmydee | cherva it starts at hd0 partition 0 and works up | 10:42 |
| gogeta | SleepingSloth you have to restart to restart hardware | 10:42 |
| mirak | gogeta ok | 10:42 |
| mayfairy | flokuehn: That's what I thought. Was just browing bioware to find the guide. :P | 10:42 |
| DesiArnez6 | I will let it rest for now, I must get some sleep, thanks for the help, problem seems mostly fixed and i learned a lot in the process ;) | 10:42 |
| Shapeshifter | ozzloy: 112mb for konqueror and all its deps ;) | 10:42 |
| flokuehn | mayfairy: iam sorry | 10:42 |
| Marcus_ | is that a question to me? | 10:42 |
| mayfairy | flokuehn: Guess I need to fire up my Windows XP to play the game *sigh* Haven | 10:42 |

| gogeta | mirak yea they made all those extra codecs and stuff easy to install now | 10:43 |
| flokuehn | mayfairy: yes i think so too. have you ever tried wine? | 10:43 |
| gogeta | 1 package | 10:43 |
| cherva | jimmydee so if i have 3 partitions on sda and i want to boot from the first partition on sdb i have to use (hd0,4) or what ? | 10:43 |
| mayfairy | flokuehn: I've played some games with it. and cedega | 10:43 |
| mirak | gogeta no I don't think this enable mp3 encoding in ffmpeg , that's what mencoder needs | 10:43 |
| ozzloy | Shapeshifter: good luck with that | 10:43 |

| gogeta | mirak yea it instal lame mp3 ffmpeg uses that | 10:44 |
| tuntun | Why is the alternate iso the same size as the livecd iso??? | 10:44 |
| ozzloy | tuntun: because you are morally corrupt. | 10:44 |
| mirak | gogeta no because I already have lame | 10:44 |
| jimmydee | you already are lame? | 10:45 |
| gogeta | mirak then ffmpeg should do mp3 fine | 10:45 |
| mirak | gogeta ffmpeg needs to be compiled with lame support | 10:45 |
| gogeta | mirak most are | 10:45 |
| tuntun | ozzloy:... | 10:45 |

| Marcus_ | no, i haven't | 10:48 |
| tuntun | Why is the alternate iso the same size as the livecd iso? | 10:48 |

| Marcus_ | i know what i should do | 10:49 |
| frandavid100 | I would like to file a bug against the shares-admin utility, but it's not to be found in launchpad. Any ideas? | 10:49 |

| fiveofoh | ferronica: Like I said, you have to set it up right | 10:49 |
| gogeta | mirak it uses the gs steamer codecs | 10:49 |

| ozzloy | Juno: gnome toaster is also good, like gogeta says. right click the .iso, and ... i forget the menu choice | 10:55 |
| livingdaylight | Youknow the dictionary you add to panel from 'Add to Panel on right-click...well it was working and today it isn't | 10:55 |

| fiveofoh | livingdaylight: Hmm, yeah it won't let me get into the text field | 10:56 |
| gogeta | wine | 10:56 |
| livingdaylight | i needed to check inequitable to make sure it was the word i really wanted to use and the dictionary let me down | 10:56 |
| jimmydee | then wine-config | 10:56 |
| gogeta | well winecfg after | 10:56 |
| gogeta | no - | 10:56 |
| gogeta | lol | 10:56 |
| DeMoNSeEd_ | brasero is sweet too | 10:56 |

| ozzloy | k, gnight. good luck peoples | 10:56 |
| livingdaylight | fiveofoh, oh, it lets me get into the textfield at least, but on hitting return nothing happens is all | 10:56 |
| livingdaylight | fiveofoh, maybe their servers are down? | 10:56 |
| tuntun | ozzloy: Your reply "because you are morally corrupt" was neither entertaining nor helpful. | 10:56 |
| mirak | DeMoNSeEd_ hey | 10:57 |
| DeMoNSeEd_ | hi | 10:57 |
| fiveofoh | tuntun: settle down | 10:57 |
| DeMoNSeEd_ | you get it working | 10:57 |
| ozzloy | tuntun: yes. fine. i apologize. | 10:57 |

| fiveofoh | livingdaylight: Yeah, I just removed and re-added it, and it still won't let me focus the text field | 10:57 |
| gogeta | livingdaylight go install vista then you will relly knoe unrelable | 10:57 |
| fiveofoh | ferronica: Did you get screenlets figured out? | 10:58 |
| fiveofoh | livingdaylight: Use firefox and Pidgin ;) | 10:58 |
| DeMoNSeEd_ | i saw something about codecs, you get that solved mirak? | 10:58 |
| tuntun | gogeta: Could you clarify what the alternate.iso is for? | 10:58 |
| gogeta | tuntum its a texxt based installer | 10:58 |
| jimmydee | codecs? can you say sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras? | 10:58 |
| gogeta | tuntum not a live cd | 10:58 |
| alceste | i'd need a quick help: how do i disable that annoying mail notification icon on gutsy? (it wasn't there on feisty) | 10:58 |
| ozzloy | fiveofoh: thanks for the support. it's just not the right humor, so meh | 10:59 |

| gogeta | tuntum for those that have issues with the live disk like some video cards need manule configuration and so on | 10:59 |
| mmeenagh | just a question | 10:59 |
| tuntun | gogeta: so it installs all of the same packages as the main iso? | 10:59 |
| fiveofoh | livingdaylight: haha | 10:59 |
| gogeta | tuntum most cases live cd is fine and yes same pakages | 11:00 |
| livingdaylight | fiveofoh, i'm using opera and kazehasake these days... Find FF a bit slow. I think the project has veered off course a little. But how would your solution work anyhow | 11:00 |
| senseibaka | so.. winecfg or wine-config? | 11:00 |
| davzie | g | 11:00 |
| gogeta | winecfg | 11:00 |

| fiveofoh | It was partly in jest, but FF (and Pidgin) have built-in spellcheck | 11:00 |
| mmeenagh | for some reason eclipse is not seeing the apache server i have installed | 11:00 |
| * fiveofoh slaps light5o with a full sentence | 11:00 | |
| mmeenagh | eclipse pdt php | 11:01 |
| fiveofoh | light5o: Do they go away when you reboot? That happens, afaik, when the disk doesn't get properly unmounted before removal | 11:01 |

| gogeta | merlionbay LOL lindows and no | 11:02 |
| light5o | fiveofoh: no . i assumed that they were unmounted as they had dissappeared from the desktop | 11:02 |
| gogeta | merlionbay we have apt-get | 11:02 |
| tuntun | gogeta: does the server cd ask what packages to install? | 11:02 |
| merlionboy | but cnr seems to be easier | 11:02 |
| gogeta | tuntun server cd is just that it installes a text system with stuff like apachice ftp and so on | 11:03 |
| senseibaka | this is the first linux i have fallen in love with | 11:03 |
| senseibaka | particularly this version | 11:03 |

| redt0nia | cnr sux dont use it | 11:03 |
| senseibaka | and i didnt like it that much | 11:03 |
| livingdaylight | fiveofoh, i missed that up there... spellcheck? no i was really after a dictionary... i'm sure FF have addons but i wanted my truested standalone dictionary that comes with gnome and has otherwise up to now always worked | 11:03 |
| frandavid100 | could you guys please take a look at this mockup, and tell me where I could suggest it? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=587946 | 11:03 |

| ferronica_ | fiveofoh: after that w2hich option ? | 11:03 |
| redt0nia | it messes up synapics | 11:03 |
| livingdaylight | fiveofoh, i just wondered if it was just me or the dictionary or gutsy?? hrmph... | 11:03 |
| Chip_Zero | somewhat silly question: where do I find the "press control to highlight pointer" in Gutsy? | 11:04 |
| gogeta | tuntum thers no gui | 11:04 |
| merlionboy | ubuntu is good for advance user | 11:04 |
| fiveofoh | Chip_Zero: Ahhh I think it's in the magnification plugin if you're running compiz-fusion | 11:04 |
| merlionboy | normal user how to expect them to understand apt-get, respository? | 11:04 |
| gogeta | merlionboy ubuntu is aimed at new users to | 11:04 |

| senseibaka | couldnt find wineconfig | 11:05 |
| senseibaka | or winecfg | 11:05 |
| senseibaka | or wine-cfg, or wine-config | 11:05 |
| gogeta | tuntun oh thats a option on the alt install cd | 11:06 |
| redt0nia | i had to rm cnr* | 11:06 |

| senseibaka | nope | 11:06 |
| gogeta | tuntun its named just that minimal | 11:06 |
| senseibaka | winecfg package DNE | 11:06 |
| jimmydee | its wineconfig | 11:06 |
| merlionboy | there is no version of ubuntu that comes with java, realplayer etc | 11:06 |
| senseibaka | i tried that too | 11:06 |
| gogeta | tuntun but why would you whant that | 11:06 |
| merlionboy | have to install it ourself | 11:06 |
| jimmydee | its /usr/bin/wineconfig | 11:06 |
| senseibaka | wineconfig DNE either | 11:06 |
| gogeta | merlionboy 7.10 does | 11:07 |

| gogeta | merlionboy ubuntu-restreted-extras all in 1 package that installs all that | 11:07 |
| merlionboy | thanks, | 11:07 |

| * mypapit offline!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! | 11:34 | |
| tommw | hello, I am completely new to Linux/Ubuntu and am currently downloading 7.10 to have a play with. This will be my first time using an OS other than Windows, and I am looking to dual-boot Ubuntu temporarily alongside Windows. Also, the computer I will use Ubuntu on is on a wireless network. Will I have any problems with the network card drivers/connecting to the network? Thanks in advance | 11:34 |

| JohnFlux | Hey all | 11:35 |
| * trevine wants hid mommy | 11:35 | |
| gogeta | tomw wireless probly | 11:35 |
| JohnFlux | has anyone tried compiling all the packages with intel's icc complier? | 11:35 |
| SleepingSloth | tommw, it all depends on the card | 11:35 |
| JohnFlux | see if there's a speed boost from it | 11:35 |
| tommw | it's a Belkin card | 11:35 |
| SleepingSloth | tommw, your best bet will be to google the exact model | 11:36 |
| sic | tommw anyway if you want to just play there's no need to make a dual boot... use the live cd... | 11:36 |
| Javid | has anyone here actually done the install from a USB stick method? | 11:36 |
| tommw | oh okay | 11:37 |
| gogeta | javid you do knoe that shortens your usb sticks life | 11:37 |
| Javid | anyone who cannot spell "knoe" has no information I need | 11:37 |
| gogeta | javid burn up your stick you where warned | 11:38 |
| SleepingSloth | tommw, also, from experience..... you'll never let windows g while you're dual-booting. it's tough to begin with, but IMO, you've got to throw yourself in at the deep end, or you'll just end up reverting to the easy option... | 11:38 |
| Javid | this might come as a surprise to you, but there are computers made, even today, that do not have optical drives | 11:38 |
| tommw | i would just switch straight away, but it's the wireless card problems that are keeping me back | 11:38 |
| Javid | you may or may not also be aware that a cheap USB stick is significantly less expensive than a USB CD drive | 11:39 |
| gogeta | javid usb sticks only abought abought 10000 wright cycles | 11:39 |
| tommw | if i switch and i can't get it to work, i don't want the hassle of switching back | 11:39 |
| redt0nia | a 1 gig usb stick costs like 14 bux | 11:39 |
| gogeta | javid or was it 1000 | 11:39 |
| Javid | redt0nia is the holder of wise and ancient knowledge in this matter, see | 11:39 |

| Javid | suffice to say I just got a tablet PC, it doesn't have a CD drive, and I have a shitton of crappy USB drives | 11:40 |
| Putri_Maniezz | kkk | 11:40 |
| SleepingSloth | javid, you need to relax | 11:40 |
| Frogzoo | tommw: for games, dual boot is pretty much mandatory | 11:40 |
| Javid | so, I'll return to my original line of questioning | 11:40 |
| Javid | has anyone actually done this? | 11:40 |
| tommw | Frogzoo, not using games | 11:40 |
| gogeta | javid yep | 11:40 |
| sic | tommw have you already tried to use your wifi card with live cd? if it works, it won't give problem in a clean install... | 11:40 |
| gogeta | http://www.pendrivelinux.com/ | 11:41 |
| tommw | where can I download the live cd? | 11:41 |
| andrewss | Hi, do you know where can I find a list of supported SCSI hd for kernel 2.4 ? I tried "Kernel supported drivers" on google and other strings but I can't find an exact list | 11:41 |
| gogeta | enjoy replacing that stick in a month thow | 11:41 |
| tommw | I can only find the ISO on the Ubuntu site.. | 11:41 |
| sic | if you're downloading an iso of ubuntu... | 11:41 |
| SleepingSloth | Frogzoo, agreed.... i'm not saying dual-boot isn't a good idea. however, i would probably have adopted linux a year earlier if i hadnt been able to wuss out and go back to click and play windows... just my 0.02 | 11:41 |
| sic | well... you're downloading the live cd | 11:41 |
| redt0nia | can u map the swap file to a usb stick? | 11:41 |
| Frogzoo | redt0nia: no | 11:41 |
| tommw | oh lol | 11:41 |
| fiveofoh | tommw: I've sucessfully done DSL, I don't know about the Ubuntu usb stick | 11:41 |
| sic | just burn the iso, and boot the pc with the cd inserted | 11:42 |
| Frogzoo | redt0nia: it will last a couple days then bye bye usb | 11:42 |
| redt0nia | oh | 11:42 |
| redt0nia | why? | 11:42 |
| SleepingSloth | Frogzoo, that may be handy for breaking a usb stick though | 11:42 |
| Frogzoo | redt0nia: either don't use swap, or configure a ramdisk as swap | 11:42 |

| PriceChild | [Milos], No. Upgrade. | 11:51 |
| [Milos] | i can`t | 11:51 |
| PriceChild | [Milos], You will not be receiving security updates etc. so it is dangerous. | 11:51 |
| [Milos] | because i need to install drivers for network adapter | 11:51 |
| Chriswaterguy | PriceChild: ok, thanks! | 11:51 |
| [Milos] | i want to upgrade | 11:52 |
| tuntun | gogeta: ok maybe. I tried it a few times though and I was disapointingly slow (usb 2.0) | 11:52 |
| Chriswaterguy | PriceChild: I've got an ubuntu 7.10 liveCD (which I'm going to use to upgrade soon) - but then, it's possible I could format the wrong HD :D | 11:52 |
| gogeta | tuntun dsl slow wow thats new they even forted it onto a xbox and its still fast | 11:52 |
| PriceChild | [Milos], you can't really upgrade to 5.10 because that isn't supported anymore either. Install at least 6.06 fresh | 11:52 |

| fiveofoh | There's a key combo for centering the mouse cursor, I don't think that's exactly what you're looking for, but it would do the trick | 11:57 |
| gogeta | tuntun i use a hdd lol | 11:57 |

| fiveofoh | senseibaka: Haha is that blackboard? | 11:59 |
| fiveofoh | Ech | 11:59 |
| gogeta | tuntun most of that was due o detecting my hardware | 12:00 |
| Chriswaterguy | I'm planning to install Gutsy on a partition on my USB HDD first. Kind of a test drive, and then an emergency bootup option for later. Any suggestions as to how big a partition to make it? (150GB HDD) | 12:00 |
| gogeta | tuntun then again i can bring ubuntu 7.10 up in abought the same time | 12:00 |
| tuntun | gogeta: hell yes; If I found it to be a reasonable atlernative I would have ditched HDDS asap | 12:00 |
| Chriswaterguy | Should I make a partition for another distro as well (real emergency backup) | 12:00 |
| fiveofoh | Chriswaterguy: Ubuntu itself only takes ~2-3GB or so in my experience | 12:00 |
| Dmitry_ | does gparted 0.2.5 have an option not to automatically mount a partition again, when i unmount it? | 12:00 |
| fiveofoh | So, like 10GB should be plenty as long as you're not going to be storing pictures and music on it | 12:01 |
| Chip_Zero | fiveofoh: the Input-Enabled Zoom? how do I get there? | 12:01 |
| Chriswaterguy | fiveofoh: thanks | 12:01 |
| fiveofoh | System->Prefs->Advanced Desktop Effects Settings | 12:01 |
| fiveofoh | If it's not there, you'll need to install ccsm | 12:01 |
| fiveofoh | Comipz config settings manager | 12:01 |
| fiveofoh | I think | 12:01 |
| Chriswaterguy | fiveofoh: even with swap space and everything, 10GB should be way plenty then? | 12:01 |
| senseibaka | yes, fiveofoh, it is blackboard | 12:02 |
| gogeta | tuntun naa flash drives as hds are unreleible better just to use ahd or one of those little usb harddrives | 12:02 |
| senseibaka | i guess it's obvious now that i am a uni student ? | 12:03 |
| tuntun | gogeta: Ironically thats exactly why I would ditch hdd's. | 12:03 |
| Chriswaterguy | Is there a problem if I have too many partitions? (like 4 or 5) and does it matter what order they're in (whether the one with Ubuntu is first...)? I'll have ext3 for backup, and FAT32 for swapping files with Windows machines. | 12:03 |
| Frogzoo | Chriswaterguy: 10gigs fine for the install - you might want a separate /home on top of that | 12:03 |
| gogeta | tuntun for unrelible flash drives lol | 12:04 |
| gogeta | tuntun solid state is the way to go but expensiv | 12:04 |
| Chriswaterguy | frogzoo: home in a separate partition? ok... easy to set up during install? | 12:04 |
| tuntun | Chriswaterguy: You can only have a maximmum of 4 primary partitions | 12:04 |
| sacater | nox-Hand: gnome partition editor o.O | 12:05 |
| Frogzoo | Chriswaterguy: 3 primary partitions, and then one extended partition - in that I think you can have 8 or 16 logical partitions | 12:05 |
| sacater | nox-Hand: wrong channel but an answer nonetheless | 12:05 |
| Frogzoo | Chriswaterguy: easy enough, select manual partition | 12:05 |
| Frogzoo | Chriswaterguy: /home separate makes reinstalls so much easier | 12:05 |
| Chriswaterguy | ahhhhh | 12:06 |
| Chriswaterguy | frogzoo: good to know, will do that to my laptop's HD too! | 12:06 |

| gnomefreak | Dmitry_: its a version that is not in your ubuntu version? | 12:40 |
| Dmitry_ | gnomefreak, finally i get an answer from someone. thanks :D. and no, it's 0.3.3 | 12:41 |
| gnomefreak | Dmitry_: can not find and not installed are not the same | 12:41 |
| Dmitry_ | gnomefreak, i have default 0.2.5 installed. | 12:41 |
| Dmitry_ | gnomefreak, in that case, how could i help the installer find it? | 12:41 |
| Dmitry_ | gnomefreak, compiler* | 12:41 |
| gnomefreak | Dmitry_: install your version as gparted depends on important libs and that is most likely why it fails. | 12:41 |
| Juno | Is the only difference between ubuntu and xubuntu the desktop environment? | 12:41 |
| r0bert | it is | 12:41 |
| tonyyarusso | Juno: yes | 12:42 |
| tonyyarusso | Juno: well, and default applications | 12:42 |
| Dmitry_ | gnomefreak, did you mean uninstall? | 12:42 |
| gnomefreak | Dmitry_: gparted is not an app that should be installed out side of repos | 12:42 |
| jacquesmerde | i installed sage for firefox, but now its disappeared... anyone been successful? | 12:42 |
| gnomefreak | Dmitry_: yes and use version in your version of ubuntu | 12:42 |
| Juno | tonyyarusso: so if I install ubuntu and install xfce, it'd be the same thing? | 12:42 |
| r0bert | yepp | 12:42 |
| Dmitry_ | gnomefreak, ok. thanks for the help. | 12:43 |
| ASD2003ru | Any body help me! Toshiba P100 sound not work in 7.10... and patches from 7.06 not work | 12:43 |
| r0bert | (except for those gnome-programs, which wont be there) | 12:43 |
| ASD2003ru | In this topic problem http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=349491&highlight=Toshiba&page=11 | 12:43 |
| Pici | jacquesmerde: Check to see that its not disabled. I *think* I might have read about a firefox (not Ubuntu) bux causing that in the latest version. | 12:43 |
| gnomefreak | Dmitry_: also as a side note that is a good reason noone helped you | 12:43 |
| tonyyarusso | Juno: Pretty much. For the applications aspect, install xubuntu-desktop rather than just xfce4. | 12:43 |
| gnomefreak | Dmitry_: its unsupported | 12:43 |
| Dmitry_ | gnomefreak, however, i have another question about gparted. | 12:43 |
| powerserve | hi there! i installed skype for gutsy running on amd64bit as instructed. however, when i tried to open skype nothing happens but instead, i saw a folder on the desktop with skype-install.deb.. i tried to install it and encountered this error "Error: wrong architecture 'i386'"... what do i do next? i need to install skype on my 64bit..help... | 12:43 |
| gnomefreak | Dmitry_: ? | 12:43 |
| sponix | Juno: if you install xubuntu-desktop package set, it would be very close | 12:43 |
| Dmitry_ | gnomefreak, i want to make my ubuntu partition bigger. i booted from the ubuntu livecd, and opened gparted | 12:43 |
| gileswwwrk | heya buntyheads | 12:44 |
| sponix | Juno: ubuntu-desktop, kubuntu-desktop, and xubuntu-desktop are the meta-packages | 12:44 |
| jacquesmerde | Pici: but i CAN'T check if its disabled or not, its disappeared! | 12:44 |
| Dmitry_ | gnomefreak, then tried resizing the partition (it was unmounted), but it told me that i should look for errors and if possible, fix them | 12:44 |
| gileswwwrk | I'm trying to get a list of the main repository that ubuntu security updates apply to | 12:44 |
| Juno | is there a significant difference between using xubuntu vs. ubuntu? | 12:44 |
| Dmitry_ | gnomefreak, then i did that with "fsck /dev/hdc4", and repeated the earlier procedure. i was given the same error | 12:44 |
| Pici | jacquesmerde: just a minute, let me check my notes to see what exactly I read. | 12:44 |
| Gorlist | just wanted to a quick check - need to reinstall Ubuntu as going back to 32 bit rather than 64. Are all the emails from Evolution contained within the Home/user directory? | 12:44 |
| Juno | as far as the desktop environments? is there really anything significant thats better or worse between them? | 12:44 |
| gnomefreak | Dmitry_: thats not gparted that is most likely your hardware. | 12:45 |
| Pici | Gorlist: Everything that pertains just to your user is in /home/username | 12:45 |
| banyunet | dcka | 12:45 |
| tofukitty | hi all =) I have an old ubuntu (feisty) CD that I can get to boot, but it's a 64 bit CD and system is not 64 bit. I have an ubuntu 7.10 iso image on the HDD, is it possible to get from the boot: prompt to running a kernel from the HDD? | 12:45 |
| jacquesmerde | Pici: synaptic says i have firefox-sage installed, but it doesn't come up in the addons menu | 12:45 |
| Dmitry_ | gnomefreak, i see. i really doubt that, though :P | 12:45 |
| gileswwwrk | is it basically everything on http://packages.ubuntu.com/gutsy/allpackages that doesn't have [universe] or [restricted]? | 12:45 |
| Gorlist | Pici: Excellent - ok, if I reinstall then and create an identical user, could I just copy and paste the files over? | 12:45 |
| jacquesmerde | Pici: btw, i installed it via the ubuntu addons in firefox thing. i assume it installed via synaptic. does synaptic have a log file so i can check what dependencies it brought in? | 12:46 |
| Gorlist | or is their a proper way to transfer the user account on insterlation | 12:46 |
| Pici | Gorlist: yes, you should be able to. | 12:46 |
| Gorlist | Thanks again. | 12:46 |
| Pici | jacquesmerde: Did it ever show up in firefox? | 12:46 |
| ME_AGAIN | hi | 12:46 |
| sponix | Juno: xubuntu running xfce4 is a nice way to save a bit of memory, and tends to do a lot better than gnome on low end systems | 12:46 |
| jacquesmerde | Pici: never | 12:46 |
| JimPD | My NTFS partition is listed as "fuseblk". What does this mean? | 12:46 |
| Pici | jacquesmerde: If you are running Gutsy, did you try installing it from Ubufox? | 12:46 |
| jacquesmerde | Pici: i can't get any evidence from firefox that the addon even exists anywhere | 12:46 |
| loca|host | i want to have more than two workspaces, i can't add a third one, how can it be possible ? | 12:47 |
| jacquesmerde | Pici: that's how i installed it | 12:47 |
| ME_AGAIN | hi, i am trying to download a package only using apt-get. i try 'apt-get -d package' but nothing :( | 12:47 |
| tofukitty | my problem is that I can't burn a CD, and my computer refuses to boot from USB (tried gparted liveUSB, slax popcorn, etc.). So I want to boot ubuntu from the HDD, but only have a windows partition. Need to get some sort of linux running so I can run Gparted and reclaim some space from windows for a new partition where I will install ubuntu | 12:47 |
| ME_AGAIN | how do i use the -d option? | 12:47 |
| Juno | sponix: im in the process of downloading ubuntu again. just wondering if I should get xubuntu instead, but I've only used xfce a few times. | 12:47 |
| lavender_dream | loca|host: right click on the workspace icon, then preference | 12:47 |
| gnomefreak | apt-get -d install package | 12:47 |
| sponix | ME_AGAIN: Pici pointed out that if you used aptitude download sun-java5-plugin it would put the .deb in your current working directory | 12:48 |
| ME_AGAIN | wont that install it too? i just want to donwload | 12:48 |
| jacquesmerde | Pici: i installed it from ubufox, but now its gone from ubufox's list of addons to install, but doesn't show up in the installed addons list | 12:48 |
| sponix | ME_AGAIN: apt-get -d install sun-java5-plugin will place it in /var/cache/apt/archives/ | 12:48 |
| ME_AGAIN | ok thnx | 12:48 |
| loca|host | lavender_dream, that's the problem, i can set it to whatever i want, but it will allways be only two workspaces | 12:48 |
| maloptik | guys : i have the following message, /bin/sh : cant access the tty : job control turned off with a command control on "initramfs", can someone help me ? | 12:49 |
| Pici | jacquesmerde: That is very weird. I suggest that you log a bug at bugs.ubuntu.com . In the meantime, you can install sage manually from http://sage.mozdev.org/install/ | 12:49 |
| maloptik | i'm running ubuntu 04/07 | 12:49 |
| blue|palm | maloptik, i have the same problem... if you get it right please tell me | 12:49 |
| sponix | ME_AGAIN: no, apt-get -d install packageName will just download | 12:49 |
| Juno | maloptik: at the boot menu, hit F6 and type in "break=top | 12:49 |
| powerserve | cd ~/Desktop | 12:49 |
| powerserve | wget -N -O skype-install.deb http://www.skype.com/go/getskype-linux-ubuntu | 12:49 |

| SeJo | can i install ubuntu on p2, 192Mb ram? (7.10) | 12:50 |
| Juno | maloptik: sorry... "break=top + modprobe piix" | 12:50 |
| sponix | ME_AGAIN: then you can either have the file in /var/cache/apt/archives/ so apt will see it to install or dpkg -i pkgname from the directory the package is in | 12:50 |
| snkmad | i think i found how to fix my SATA/grub problem | 12:50 |

| Juno | maloptik: if it stops after you put that in, type "exit" | 12:50 |
| sponix | ME_AGAIN: honestly though... "man apt-get" and "man aptitude" ... Read, Read, Read | 12:50 |
| lavender_dream | loca|host: that's odd... i just tested mine and works, i'm also using the smallest panel | 12:50 |

| nanbudh | kstan: do u think reinstalling with alternate CD be of help? | 12:55 |
| kstan | i don't think so, | 12:55 |
| jacquesmerde | Pici: didn't work. the directory its installed in isn't the problem | 12:55 |
| maloptik | Juno : i didnt get where you want me to type these orders down | 12:55 |
| kstan | in linux reinstall OS won't help much | 12:55 |

| Mountaingod | Ok, I've got one more issue with Gutsy to resolve before it 'just works', and then I can get onto customising. It won't shut down. Restarts fine, but pretty much as soon as I click 'shut down', the screen turns off and it locks up. | 13:59 |
| baggins | hi | 13:59 |
| MikeDX | nick4: you can set them in .bashrc i think | 13:59 |
| baggins | i've lost DRI on ubuntu 7.10 when i log in. it seems to spawn a new X server when i log in and can't get a lock on the hardware because the login screen still has it. | 13:59 |
| dystopianray | Mountaingod: do you have ati graphics? | 13:59 |
| baggins | i am logged in on the terminal with startx at the moment. | 13:59 |
| stefg | Mountaingod, that looks like an acpi quirk | 13:59 |
| MikeDX | Mountaingod: do you have the same problem if you run the "halt" command from a terminal? | 14:00 |
| baggins | it seems to spawn a new X when i log in on GDM or something, because the Xorg.0.log says it's all ok. anyone know how to stop it from doing this? it wasn't until i upgraded to 7.10 | 14:00 |
| last-ottom4n | hi | 14:00 |
| Mountaingod | MikeDX: Just type 'halt'? I'll have a look | 14:00 |
| MikeDX | yeah as root | 14:00 |
| Mountaingod | dystopianray: No idea, where would I look? | 14:00 |
| MikeDX | or sudo halt | 14:00 |
| dystopianray | Mountaingod: lspci would tell you | 14:01 |
| MikeDX | Mountaingod: lspci | grep ATI or check the hardware menu | 14:01 |
| Mountaingod | stefg: whatever that is, how can I fix it? On the forums it appears to be a widespread issue | 14:01 |
| nick4 | MikeDX I have done it before but reconfiguring a package, but I have forgoten it's name. However I like better the idea of tweaking .bashrc. Tell me some keywords for this operating to search them in Google. | 14:01 |
| stefg | Mountaingod, that depends on your hardware. you might need to add bootparameters or edit some configfile to use e.g. apm for powerdown | 14:02 |

| [Milos] | i have instaled ubuntu 7.10 server and i want to upgrade it to normal gui ubuntu | 14:13 |
| [Milos] | how to? | 14:13 |
| dystopianray | minimec: has ubuntu detected any drives? | 14:13 |
| fevel | hey guys | 14:13 |
| pazsion | where do i find x.conf | 14:13 |
| fevel | soes anyone know a theme that would look like aero glass | 14:13 |
| Matic`Makovec | Change repositories to desktop ones, [Milos] | 14:13 |
| stefg | pazsion, you are dealing with /etc/X11/xorg.conf . x.log is none of your business | 14:13 |
| dystopianray | pazsion: /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 14:13 |
| Chamunks | genii, gutsy but i was also having this issue in feisty | 14:13 |
| Downix | I think under /etc/X11 it might be xorg.conf | 14:13 |
| minimec | dystopianray: Nope... but there is a feisty install on the HD that was working | 14:13 |
| pazsion | thx | 14:13 |
| feklee | I want to be able to mount USB memory sticks in /media/usb-stick1. What do I have to add to /etc/fstab? (the problem: according to the documentation one should not use /dev/sdc1 and the like) | 14:14 |
| DRuNKeN-MAsTEr | Can any1 help me with VMware and Ubuntu install process? After installing and restarting Ubuntu in VMware Worstation it tells me " Cannot Find Operating System " , Any ideas any1 ? | 14:14 |

| DaanU | stefg, oya thats right thanks. But i still cant add myself, any way besides Adduser and the Users and Groups menu? | 14:14 |
| dystopianray | minimec: no hard drives are detected? you don't have any drives listed anywhere in /dev/disk/ ? | 14:14 |
| ubotu | feklee: Ever wanted to make your USB-stick /dev/usbstick? Go to http://reactivated.net/writing_udev_rules.html to learn more about this feature. | 14:14 |
| ubotu | The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions | 14:14 |

| esjay | Question: I just read the links posted by the bot on backing Ubuntu up, but still have a question...Is it possible to "ghost" a linux install...i have my system exactly how i want it now and would love to be able to store the image so i never have to configure things again | 14:15 |
| PriceChild | [Milos], sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop | 14:15 |
| fiXXXerMet | Why is it that ubuntu doesn't have a /etc/inittab file? | 14:15 |
| Pici | !upstart | fiXXXerMet | 14:15 |
| ubotu | fiXXXerMet: Upstart is meant to replace the old Sys V Init system with an event-driven init model. For more information please see: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/ | 14:15 |
| pazsion | so how do i use the nvidia-xconfig tool? | 14:15 |
| dystopianray | fiXXXerMet: it uses upstart | 14:15 |
| fiXXXerMet | Thank you both. | 14:15 |
| feklee | ubotu, I know about traditional fstab. But thanks for the link (I recall reading about this issue some while ago). | 14:15 |

| stefg | DaanU, you locked yoursel out, if you managed to drop admin rights on the only sudo-user (admin-member). you have to boot to recovery (will give you a root prompt) and procced from there | 14:15 |
| dystopianray | minimec: look within that directory | 14:16 |

| mudfly | DRuNKeN-MAsTEr, have you tried to contact VMware for support on workstation? | 14:17 |
| esjay | anyone on that ghosting question? | 14:17 |
| minimec | dystopianray: I t's a link. If I want to open it, it gives me an error | 14:17 |
| genii | Chamunks: If on Gutsy you may want to use the Debian Lenny install instructions | 14:17 |
| stefg | !pm | ifree2 | 14:17 |
| ubotu | ifree2: Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can also benefit AND help you. Please don't PM a user in the channel without asking first, some find it rude. | 14:17 |
| dystopianray | minimec: it is strange that you do not get the partition step, i am not sure how to solve that one | 14:17 |
| DRuNKeN-MAsTEr | mudfly, no | 14:17 |
| DaanU | Alright, thanks a lot stefg! Never thought of that, this will do the trick. Thanks again1 | 14:18 |
| Zasch | Hello. I recently attempted to restore Ubuntu from a backup (There was some article on the Ubuntu wiki about backing up to TAR)...however, when I did this, it no longer boots. It tells me that some "root=UUID=<a bunch of numbers>" doesn't exist. What's wrong and how do I fix it? | 14:18 |
| DRuNKeN-MAsTEr | i am following their install guide and no luck so far | 14:18 |
| mudfly | DRuNKeN-MAsTEr, since that is a commercial product you should try their support. | 14:18 |
| minimec | dystopianray: It's the first time I have this problem... I am very surprised too... | 14:18 |
| ifree2 | stefg: how do I perform a fresh reinstall CORRECTLY? due to experience, whenever i do reinstallation, all the mounting screwed up | 14:18 |
| Chamunks | genii, ok so i suppose a "sudo aptitude remove picard" would be in order before i try all this? | 14:18 |
| dystopianray | minimec: try the alternate installer | 14:18 |
| genii | Chamunks: If you used the package manager to install it, i'd say yeah | 14:19 |
| Downix | Can Ubuntu handle clustering? | 14:19 |
| minimec | dystopianray: How would I launch that one on the console? | 14:19 |
| stefg | ifree2, first get a backup of your existing installation, so you have all config files backed up as well | 14:19 |
| ifree2 | yes, thanks. What should i do after that? | 14:19 |
| Zasch | Does anyone know how I can find the "real" (I guess) root=UUID= or whatever it is asking for? | 14:19 |
| jrib | !uuid > Zasch (read the private message from ubotu) | 14:19 |
| Chamunks | genii, thats what i did but unfortunately it doesent want to scan my media library container folder recursively so it kindof defeats the purpose of a mass tagger | 14:20 |
| pike_ | Zasch: gksu gedit /etc/fstab just remove the uid and replace with /dev/hda1 or whatever you see when sudo fdisk -l | 14:20 |
| DRuNKeN-MAsTEr | Downix read the docs on the server edition. It might have it. Not sure about the desktop verision | 14:20 |
| livingdaylight | Downix, you're making cluster bombs? | 14:20 |
| DRuNKeN-MAsTEr | *Laughs* | 14:20 |
| stefg | ifree2, and once you are reinstalling anyway, i would suggest to do some smarter partition layout, i.e. having /home and /boot on separte partitions | 14:20 |
| pazsion | do i need to give it a bus ID? | 14:20 |
| Downix | *laughs* | 14:20 |
| Downix | figuring out the best way to handle a server | 14:20 |
| ifree2 | stefg: i have /home, but not /boot | 14:20 |
| dystopianray | minimec: you need to download the alternate installer iso | 14:20 |
| Anthology | did 7.10 come out of beta today? | 14:20 |
| Downix | I might just do LVM with an NFS system for the userdata and database | 14:20 |
| dgjones | Anthology, 18th October | 14:20 |
| jrib | Anthology: the 18th it did | 14:20 |
| dystopianray | Anthology: last week | 14:20 |
| Anthology | ah thanks | 14:21 |
| auowE | Abiword is making really big pdf files. How can I tell it to make small pdfs? | 14:21 |
| Anthology | :P | 14:21 |
| pazsion | i hope it didn't leave beta.. still has issues | 14:21 |
| christoffer | When I try to launch steam with Wine I get a Permission denied error when it tries to load a file, can anyone help? | 14:21 |
| stefg | ifree2, that's fine. having /boot seperate has more benefit for heavy tinkerers like me | 14:21 |
| Anthology | pazsion, i thought it still had a few issues to be worked out too | 14:21 |
| pike_ | auowE: dunno make ps instead and distill em? not sure | 14:21 |
| minimec | dystopianray: Well I will try to reboot that thing ;) THX for your help. | 14:21 |
| jrib | pazsion: paste the actual error on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org and provide the channel with a link | 14:21 |
| stefg | ifree2, so you just tell the installer what your /home partition is (make sure to **not** format it). | 14:21 |
| auowE | can't I set the parameters with any configuration files? | 14:22 |
| Chamunks | genii, any particular reason why gutsy should be more similar to lenny than feisty? | 14:22 |
| pazsion | how do i install nvidia using nvidia-xconfig file? | 14:22 |
| pazsion | well right now, sound doesn't work after latest updates | 14:22 |
| pike_ | pazsion: use the restricted manager | 14:22 |
| stefg | ifree2, but do a backup nevertheless. gutsy might be a nasty surprise for you, depending on your hardware | 14:22 |
| jrib | !nvidia > pazsion (read the private message from ubotu) | 14:22 |
| genii | Chamunks: Mostly kernel changes | 14:22 |
| pike_ | auowE: sorry not that familiar with abi | 14:23 |
| ben-- | heya | 14:23 |
| pazsion | restricted manager doesn't detet it and lst time i used restricted drivers x didn't want to load anymore | 14:23 |
| ifree2 | stefg: thank you. Is that all? But then i cannot do any partition resize else the mounting messed up again | 14:23 |
| ben-- | I've just used the Ubuntu 7 ISO to burn an installation CD... | 14:23 |
| pazsion | been there ubotu | 14:23 |
| ben-- | I boot using that CD, the Ubuntu menu with a lot of options pops up | 14:23 |
| pazsion | faqs are no help at all | 14:23 |
| taggig | any1 know a good "dockapp" for 7.10? | 14:23 |
| tdeverell | Sorry... I got an IM but lost it. | 14:23 |
| ben-- | I've tried running the "Install Ubuntu" option | 14:23 |
| ben-- | it says I/O Error | 14:24 |
| ben-- | and reboots. | 14:24 |
| pike_ | pazsion: do a google search for nvidia latest gutsy or somesuch id write or print th esteps out before proceeding with manual install if its your first time | 14:24 |
| tofukitty | grr, all these questions of installing ubuntu without a liveCD or USB boot capability, why oh why did nobody say Wibu? lol ^^ | 14:24 |
| auowE | ok, is there any other word processory which is lightweight and having all the capabilities of abiword (not openoffice) | 14:24 |
| Chamunks | genii, ok thats what i assumed | 14:24 |
| christoffer | When I run steam with Ubuntu / Wine no text on the buttons or anything will show. | 14:24 |
| jrib | pazsion: your question is answered there. Did you actually read the page? | 14:24 |
| christoffer | It's asif I have to install a font it needs | 14:24 |
| pazsion | even documentation that came with the linux nvidia drivers leave me hanging with exactly what to do.. yes this is pretty much my first go at this | 14:24 |
| ben-- | tokukitty: cause wubi does not partition | 14:24 |
| ben-- | which sucks. | 14:24 |
| tofukitty | !wibu | 14:24 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about wibu - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 14:24 |

| jrib | pazsion: you were linked directly to your answer | 14:25 |
| === mars_ is now known as RobNyc | ||
| stefg | ifree2, you don't need to do any partition resizing. Choose 'manual' in the partitioning dialog, tell the insaller which partition to use for your / and format that (your current feisty partition), tell it waht to use as /home (NOT checking the format box) and the installer will automagically mount it right, and your files and settings are still there | 14:25 |
| pike_ | pazsion: http://albertomilone.com/latest_nvidia_udsf_feisty.html#METHOD_2 but this is using nvidia installer and not packages youll need to rerun this when you do kernel upgrades | 14:25 |

| ben-- | may I ask what's the diffrance between Ubuntu CD and Ubuntu LiveCD? | 14:26 |
| slylock_ | when i kill terminal the app is killed | 14:26 |
| slylock_ | someone here told me to use screen | 14:26 |
| ben-- | is LiveCD like Knoppix? no installation, just runs off the CD? | 14:27 |
| stefg | ifree2, but i repeat: DO A BACKUP before upgrade. an upgrade is a one way ticket, and you might find you want to go back to feisty | 14:27 |
| iGotRice | isnt it the same | 14:27 |
| iGotRice | im using livecd | 14:27 |
| slylock_ | is there anyother way to go about it | 14:27 |
| tuntun | ben--:yes | 14:27 |

| Mountaingod | Gutsy clean install will not shut down. It shuts down fine with 'sudo halt'. It has been suggested that X is the problem. I don't even really know what X is. Can anybody help me? | 14:36 |
| LjL | tofukitty: you can use a live CD to resize the Ubuntu partition after deleting the Windows one. resizing partitions is always a relatively dangerous operation though. | 14:36 |

| ben-- | prb the CD is screwed. | 14:36 |
| tofukitty | LjL: problem is i have no LiveCD and can't boot from USB, and have no space left for a new partition, so Wubi seems to be the only way for me to get ubuntu running... | 14:37 |
| underwater | server nana.irc.gr | 14:37 |
| LjL | Shapeshifter: i don't think that's reasonably possible to do. the text cursor position is determined by the program that is using the terminal (ncurses, mostly, or it just won't matter)... think about the way 'vi' uses it. how could someone ever write a program that correctly simulates cursor key movement using the mouse, with such diversity of behaviors? | 14:38 |
| [chr0n0s] | what do i need to install to setup internet connection in linux ?? | 14:38 |
| [chr0n0s] | firestarter? | 14:38 |
| LjL | [chr0n0s]: usually nothing at all. if you're on wireless, then it depends. firestarter is just a firewall frontend. | 14:38 |
| Shapeshifter | LjL: Mh, interesting point ^^ | 14:38 |
| Shapeshifter | I would only need (well I don't _really_ need it anyway ;) ) it for bash line editing. so a "mod" of bash or sh would do the trick I guess ^^ | 14:40 |

| martian | Mountaingod: does it freeze before showing the shutdown options? | 14:53 |
| Mountaingod | No, I click the top-right button, it comes up with all the options (hibernate, etc.), I click shut down, screen goes blank, and that's it. It restarts fine | 14:53 |
| vonderer | hallo there! | 14:53 |
| LjL | robertfisk: is the bouncer running on your *own* machine? (if not, then why would you connect to localhost? is it a reverse SSH tunnel?) | 14:54 |
| 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. I've added a root user so I could see if I could log in to see whether it was a pam issue, and had no trouble logging | 14:54 |
| robertfisk | yes , its a tunnel | 14:54 |
| godzirra | I have no more ideas as to what to test or what is causing the problem. | 14:54 |
| zombie_monkey | godzirra: the only problem I've had is the Fn combos on my laptop keyboard stoped working except for num lock. | 14:54 |
| vonderer | got a problem: each time I reboot my computer I get fglrx.ko removed from /lib/modules/2.6.22-14-generic/volatile | 14:54 |
| simplyubuntu | hey can anyone give me some tips on how NOT to screw up my gutsy install (again)? | 14:54 |
| LjL | robertfisk: does doing « telnet localhost portnumber » give you a connection refused? | 14:54 |
| robertfisk | yes | 14:54 |
| martian | simplyubuntu: don't do anything stupid :) | 14:55 |
| Mountaingod | martian:No, I click the top-right button, it comes up with all the options (hibernate, etc.), I click shut down, screen goes blank, and that's it. It restarts fine (if I select restart | 14:55 |
| vonderer | so the module does not load and I have to make a new copy or link from ../misc/fglrx.ko | 14:55 |
| godzirra | zombie_monkey: Yeah, mine just stpos working. I can't use sudo, and I can't reconnect to my network, or open another terminal window in X;. | 14:55 |

| robertfisk | ok . ill do some more checking . im new on ubuntu :) thanks | 14:55 |

| zombie_monkey | i guess it doesn't make much sense to upgrade early if you're not prepared to fix any problem that may come up | 14:56 |
| simplyubuntu | but the story is that i installed gutsy once perfectly (after a failed upgrade with the alternate cd) and screwed that up too... | 14:56 |
| jrib | !ntfs > Lion31 (read the private message from ubotu) | 14:56 |
| tech0007 | Lion31: make sure your repos are complete | 14:56 |
| johnn1 | loo | 14:56 |
| martian | simplyubuntu: try harder ;) ... no, really... here's a good idea. Next time you decide to reinstall the OS, make a separate partition that mounts to /home and that way IF you DO screw things up, your personal settings and files will not be gone | 14:56 |

| Le-Chuck_ITA | if there are libs in /usr/local/lib, tell the user and eventually rename /usr/local to something else during upgrade | 16:17 |
| Vlet | dotjay: yeah, I saw the message. It looks to me like (the commands you posted above) you're creating a new group called vboxdrv. Why? The message is telling you to add yourself to the group called 'vboxusers' and then log out/in | 16:17 |
| DShepherd | Le-Chuck_ITA, well maybe the should. maybe not. I think its more about packaging though. | 16:17 |

| brianves | I'm trying organize my files on the player in a very specific way. so I started numbering them in the order I wanted. It took alot of messing around to get even remotely close to playing the order that was displayed on my computer. I even did away with #s to see if alphabetical would work. that was worse. | 16:21 |
| brianves | OK my problem... My mp3s are separated by about 15 folders... all the folders play backwards i.e. largest number to smallest. About 3 of the folders' files play forward. I renamed all the backwards playing files... well backwards in hope that they would then play forward. well guess what they still play backwards. | 16:21 |
| rob_ | even though i put my proxy in through System -> Network -> Proxy | 16:21 |

| johnnybirdman | rob_: have you check the connections and jumper settings | 16:49 |
| WorkingOnWise | I'm not sure if this is a gnome issue or CF issue, so I'll start here. Nautilus has no window decoration, and is full screen. All my other windows have the borders, but not nautilus. It's like it is set to "full screen" but I don't see that option anywhere. It will minimize if it right click it's place on the panel, but unmaximize does nothing. It stays maximized. Any ideas? | 16:49 |
| pike_ | Cryx: dropping after an idle period? | 16:50 |
| jacquesmerde | stefg: circles in deed. there's a hope in my bucket, dear liza | 16:50 |
| johnnybirdman | v3ga: have you googled envy? | 16:50 |
| kazim59 | genii: thanks . I updated my apt | 16:50 |
| rob_ | well they are easily accessible from my winxp installation | 16:50 |
| v3ga | whats envy? | 16:50 |
| rob_ | so im guessing thats not hte problem | 16:50 |
| switchcat | Q: Okay so I upgraded 7.04->7.10 ... anyways.. right now the console font is screwed up. It's too thin and funky. I've got an old comp.. so on 7.04 it used to give me a message because my bios is old.. something about ACPI and it would be in this font.. and then it would switch back to 'normal'.. well I'm guessing it didn't switch back this time.. which explains the font.. how do I get the font back to a 'normal' console f | 16:50 |
| jacquesmerde | Pici: woohoo! i'm mentioned in a bug report! | 16:50 |
| Cryx | pike_ maybe, but when i try to change the peer timeout the program just changes it back to old one :/ | 16:50 |
| atlfalcons866 | is it safe to turn off fsck | 16:50 |
| Pici | atlfalcons866: I wouldnt. | 16:50 |
| kazim59 | genii: still need to learn how falcon works (I'm not good at setting repos etc) | 16:50 |
| gvsa123 | can anyone tell me how to use the partition i just made for /home | 16:51 |
| stefg | jacquesmerde, yeah... sad situation. i find myself looking on debian, pclos, and freebsd since gutsy release . This is no longer a professional distro | 16:51 |
| askand | Ubuntu says "Battery fully charged, disconnecting ac power and using battery"....what does it mean? | 16:51 |
| v3ga | whats envy? | 16:51 |
| atlfalcons866 | Pici: would it be safe to change from 30 mounts to 75 or 100? | 16:51 |
| johnnybirdman | rob_: I had sata and ide drives and had to keep moving the jumpers on the drive until it go the correct configuration. Can you see the drive in the BIOS, this would be the first step to getting it to work | 16:51 |
| Pici | !envy | v3ga | 16:51 |
| ubotu | v3ga: 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! | 16:51 |
| v3ga | !envy | 16:51 |
| Pici | v3ga: just read what ubotu said. | 16:51 |
| wezza_ | what can I do when DNS is not working? | 16:51 |
| rob_ | im pretty sure it shows in the BIOS yeah | 16:51 |
| fevel | wezza: ad open dns | 16:51 |
| johnnybirdman | v3ga: envy is a script to help do what you want, install drivers | 16:51 |
| rob_ | guess i should go check tho >.> | 16:51 |
| Pici | atlfalcons866: You can if you feel its really necessary. | 16:51 |
| rob_ | winxp finds them just fine though | 16:52 |
| atlfalcons866 | !fsck | 16:52 |
| ubotu | 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 | 16:52 |
| jacquesmerde | stefg: surely these bugs were reported before the final gutsy release! | 16:52 |

| ILoveCLI | Vlet: How do I make it break it up? Besides, what if I had a 2 page long sentence? =p | 16:53 |
| johnnybirdman | rob_: sounds like my setup.. that's why I had to go jumper by jumper. If XP is seeing the drives, i doubt it's a problem with the jumpers and you should see them in the BIOS just fine | 16:53 |

| Aviel | i need helpppppppppppppppppp | 16:55 |

| GodOfWalmart | thechef if not, they should have the deb on their website | 17:04 |
| jacquesmerde | buckweat420: the only tagger i ever use is bmpx, but it only lets you tag from the musicbrainz database (which is all i need), plus it takes care of ALL my other multimedia needs | 17:04 |

| GodOfWalmart | thechef, it looks like i might have installed it from a deb i got from sourceforge, you can get the source from sourceforge. If the don't have the tar.gzip they'll have a subversion repo that you can get it all from | 17:05 |
| coopster | I was using update manager to upgrade from Feisty to Gutsy, a package had errors installing and the package configuring was aborted. Now update-manager thinks I have Gutsy, how do I re-start the upgrade process when the option isn't in update-manager? | 17:05 |

| MasterShrek | rob_, are all your hard drives being recognized by your bios? | 17:06 |
| coopster | rob_, What is the issue, Ubuntu isn't detecting hdds? | 17:06 |

| === x-spec-t is now known as Spec | ||
| rob_ | yeah my ide hdds not being detected | 17:07 |
| GodOfWalmart | thechef, I don't think that's possible, you mean get the source code from the binary? Unless you decompile it, no | 17:07 |
| rob_ | my sata ones load up fine, but not my IDE | 17:07 |
| MasterShrek | mumrah, whats your video card? | 17:07 |

| Ranbee | thanks, DShepherd. but, i've got a sources list already, it's got loads of sources. i just heard 3rd party repos can break an upgrade, that's why i asked if it's safest to use just those 4 repos :| | 17:12 |

| DShepherd | Ranbee, its safe to use the repos that are generated in easysource | 17:13 |
| genii | dox: Specify when installing not to format the drive. Then make the first new username same as before and all the /home/username stuff will still be there | 17:13 |

| adamrn83 | what does checkinstall do/ | 17:55 |
| h1st0 | adamrn83: sudo apt-get install checkinstall You will use checkisntall instead of the make install step. It will create a deb for your for easy removal in the furture. | 17:55 |
| _keito_ | kidbuntu: synaptic tells you the command to run | 17:55 |
| h1st0 | !checkinstall | adamrn83 | 17:55 |
| ubotu | adamrn83: checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages.

| liberum | I just upgraded to ATI drivers 42.3 i think.. first.. how can i check the version? second - i cannot switch compiz on. "no composite bla blah". But the new drivers should be able to run aixgl | 18:10 |
| h1st0 | pmj: what type of partitions are the 2 that are requiring passwords? Are they different than the two that are working? | 18:10 |
| ruz322 | that sucks... | 18:10 |
| ruz322 | i guess i could build from source | 18:10 |
| pmj | h1st0: much stranger things happened after that. Suddenly these "disk" and "disk-1" directories appeared in /media, and on my desktop. And those 2 that had failed somehow now pointed to a different disk. It actually changed how I had mounted them | 18:10 |
| liberum | i mean 8.42.3 :) | 18:10 |
| kallepersson | Anyone knows where I might be able to get Gimp 2.4 (except from building from soruce) | 18:10 |

| unice | ah just installed these new drivers | 18:10 |
| bmm | gonzaloaf_work: checking the execution bits might help (ls -alh /etc/rc.local) another way is adding it to your own crontab (as root) | 18:11 |
| kallepersson | 2.4rc3 would also be OK of course. | 18:11 |

| pmj | h1st0: this is how I've always done it. I mount them manually | 18:11 |
| bjb1959 | I have a friend that just installed gutsy on an older PIII he had and everything works except his external usb drive. his vista laptop sees it no problem but gutsy gives him and error that /dev/sdc1 can't be mounted because it's already marked active. any ideas? | 18:11 |
| Pici | kallepersson: Gimp 2.4 is in Gutsy, otherwise you are stuck with source or looking for packages on getdeb.net or gimp's website. | 18:11 |
| ruz322 | prolly vista has marked it as mounted to that OS, did he properly eject it form vista or just unplug it? | 18:11 |
| h1st0 | pmj: well then its permission issues to the folders they are being mounted to or something. try mounting one of the drives to /mnt/floppy just for gigles | 18:12 |
| superposi | hi | 18:12 |
| pmj | h1st0: but I type sudo umount /media/400. I get no feedback. I navigate into /media/400 and it's pointing to my system drive, and not what I had mounted it to originally | 18:12 |
| gonzaloaf_work | bmm, it has +x , so I dont understand why it is not being executed, should I use /etc/init.d/rc.local instead? | 18:12 |
| kallepersson | Pici, i'm still running Feisty | 18:12 |
| h1st0 | pmj: err media/floppy | 18:12 |
| kallepersson | Getdeb didn't have any packages for me | 18:12 |
| Pici | kallepersson: I figured :) | 18:12 |

| h1st0 | pmj: you need to check your /etc/fstab file out. You may have some entries in there that are giving you grief since you are mounting manually | 18:12 |
| bmm | gonzaloaf_work: not sure. You can also try "sudo crontab -e" and add a line with "@reboot rm file", see "man 5 crontab" | 18:12 |
| Pici | kallepersson: http://www.gimpusers.com/gimp-download.php | 18:12 |

| kl4m | lee986321: as theses device do not have a write buffer | 18:32 |
| kl4m | "these devices" | 18:32 |

| rellik | I manually installed the ATI drivers, but they don't work, so I want to try again... do I have to purge the old packages (installed using dpkg) before I do this or is there a way to just overwrite them? | 18:33 |
| === Moniker42 is now known as Moniker42away | ||
| unice | rellik: manually check kernel modules for existing modules. apt-get --purge remove fglrx* | 18:33 |
| === shaffox is now known as Shaffox | ||
| unice | rellik: i mean existing fglrx modules ;) | 18:34 |
| rellik | unice, that will remove my fglrx-kernal as well.. is that ok? | 18:34 |
| gonzaloaf_work | are ubuntu runlevels the same as debian? | 18:34 |
| rellik | unice, seems dangerous :) | 18:34 |
| Stoffer | I'm back to using gnome... how do I add workspaces? I only have 2 now. | 18:34 |
| unice | rellik: the amd installer installs a kernel module, too | 18:35 |
| FluxD | Stoffer: rightclick prefernces | 18:35 |
| rellik | unice, yeah.. just wasn't sure if it's safe to uninstall the currently-running kernel | 18:35 |
| timposey | are there known prolems with updateing to gutsy using upgrade process? mine went through the first couple of steps and then locked up, nwo is saying can only do partial upgrade but still locks up and will not continue with upgrade any ideas | 18:35 |
| lawke | how do I delete compiz-gnome and install compiz-fusion? | 18:35 |
| unice | rellik: well in any case you should not deinstall your kernel | 18:35 |
| Stoffer | FluxD, rightclick on what? | 18:35 |
| PriceChild | lawke, it is compiz fusion :/ | 18:36 |
| lawke | ic | 18:36 |

| lawke | the latest one | 18:36 |
| Stoffer | Flux, I don't have the workspace switcher down there. Anyway, I added it before to see if that would give me the option, and it didn't | 18:36 |
| Pici | lawke: Then you already have compiz-fusion | 18:36 |
| lawke | oink? | 18:36 |
| lawke | so I can make it turn in a cube and stuff? | 18:36 |

| FluxD | Stoffer: so u have only 2 workspaces now? | 18:39 |
| muzzlol | Guys, i want to upgrade my ATi drivers | 18:39 |

| diete1 | i have a problem, i have an logitech usb headset 250. But i can't get it to work in gutsy | 18:41 |
| Stoffer | FluxD, I do, and it gives me 'rows' and 'colums' options. Changing those numbers does nothing | 18:41 |

| FluxD | Stoffer: thats strange | 18:41 |
| lawke | Pici, do I have to install Xgl aswell ? | 18:41 |
| Pici | philo23_: No. The reccomneded upgrade path is to move through each release,eg: 6.06->6.10->7.04->7.10 | 18:41 |
| chris122380 | the yahoo chat rooms | 18:41 |
| Ofunniku | Vlet: Thanks, I'll check it out. | 18:41 |
| Stoffer | FluxD, maybe I should remove compiz... | 18:41 |
| Pici | lawke: If you have a newer ati card, yes | 18:41 |
| philo23_ | Pici: well how would i do it? | 18:41 |
| gonzaloaf_work | I have a ubuntu server, how can I cannot make it start in text mode? | 18:42 |
| FluxD | Stoffer: there is an option in compiz also to increase the number but look throu the cube settngs | 18:42 |
| ompaul | philo23_, but the big thing to note is grabbing a CD of the latest is the best idea | 18:42 |
| lawke | I got a Ati Radeon X1600PRO | 18:42 |
| chris122380 | I take that as a no | 18:42 |
| Stoffer | FluxD, yeah, but my compiz options won't open | 18:42 |
| philo23_ | ompaul: i'd love to, i dont have any spare cds hanging about | 18:42 |
| Pici | lawke: Then yes, you'll need the restricted drivers and xgl. | 18:42 |
| muzzlol | how can i patch the kernel XD | 18:42 |
| lawke | blah | 18:42 |
| PaxX | question: when will a patch come that fixes no/low sound with intel hda cards? ive read all the forum posts and none of them works for my hp pavillion dv9000. does anyone know? | 18:42 |

| FluxD | Stoffer: oh ok try that then | 18:42 |
| Vlet | gonzaloaf_work: install ubuntu-desktop but if it's a server, you might not want to use up all that memory/cpu with a UI that you won't need often | 18:42 |
| noodlesgc | Ok, has anyone upgraded to gutsy, and if so, have you had application hangs during preconfigureation of packages? | 18:42 |
| Pici | lawke: its just the xserver-xgl package | 18:42 |
| lawke | oki, thx | 18:43 |
| lawke | :D | 18:43 |
| ompaul | philo23_, well I would not risk a working machine for maybe an upgrade | 18:43 |
| hekjje | hey | 18:43 |
| Mountaingo1 | Gutsy won't shut down properly. I click the shutdown button near the clock, then click Shut Down, screen goes black, laptop freezes. I have to either cut the power at this point, or avoid the process and use "sudo halt". The forums are riddled with gutsy users who have shutdown problems. Can anybody help me | 18:43 |
| chris122380 | Is there anyway to get ubuntu to use my USB flash drives as Video RAM? | 18:43 |
| philo23_ | so i cant upgrade from inside of 6.06, i have to use a cd or such? | 18:43 |
| gonzaloaf_work | Vlet, thats the reason because I want it to boot in text mode | 18:43 |
| unice | afair latest ati driver don't need no Xgl no more.. | 18:43 |
| Vlet | chris122380: I doubt it. | 18:43 |

| diete1 | :-( i have a problem, i have an logitech usb headset 250. But i can't get it to work in gutsy :'( | 18:46 |
| dantheman440 | lol | 18:46 |
| Pici | gonzaloaf_work: always? you could do `sudo update-rc.d gdm remove` | 18:46 |
| philo23_ | when you said do it in the order, do you mean installing gutsy fresh, or going to /etc/apt/sources.list and changing dapper to edgy then to gutsy when i've updated everything? | 18:46 |
| QwertyM | kst, I don't use it .. but maybe you need libnotify package to make it work if its not? | 18:47 |
| Vlet | gonzaloaf_work: ahh... try: sudo update-rc.d -f gdm remove | 18:47 |
| FluxD | philo23_: get the older cds if possible | 18:47 |
| Vlet | gonzaloaf_work: that'll keep gdm from starting at boot | 18:47 |
| FluxD | philo23_: or u can do a complete reinstall with a backup of ur settings and home dir etc | 18:47 |
| philo23_ | FluxD: i have a gutsy dvd, if i steal my dvd drive from my pc upstairs for a while, so you think i could install gutsy? | 18:48 |
| gonzaloaf_work | Vlet, ok thanks | 18:48 |
| lawke | Pici, hmm I installed that package but now im typing in qwerty :D | 18:48 |

| FluxD | philo23: do u have anything important on ur current ubuntu? | 18:48 |
| FluxD | philo23_: do u have anything important on ur current ubuntu? | 18:48 |
| Pici | lawke: Yes, you might need to reconfigure that, sorry. | 18:49 |
| lawke | xorg conf? | 18:49 |
| philo23_ | FluxD: nothing, it was a fresh install of dapper, i just didnt have a gutsy cd laying around | 18:49 |
| chris122380 | Is there anyway to get ubuntu to use my USB flash drives as Video RAM? | 18:49 |
| Pici | lawke: I dont know, sorry. | 18:49 |
| FluxD | philo23_: as long as u are not loosing anything important and dont care yes u can just clean install | 18:49 |
| Vlet | chris122380: pretty unlikely, and that would perform very poorly | 18:50 |
| timposey | is the best way to upgrade to use the update manager or to download and burn a dvd or can you even upgrade that way? | 18:50 |
| noodlesgc | is 2795 packages to install during upgrade considered alot? | 18:50 |
| philo23_ | FluxD: ok, thanks, i'll try thar now | 18:50 |

| Vlet | chris122380: probably not | 18:50 |
| FluxD | timposey: from 7.04? | 18:51 |

| bdragonmsl | has anyone seen a deb for the new transmission?? | 18:52 |

| lawke | any knows how to put my keyboard back in azerty ?? I just installed xgl | 18:52 |
| FluxD | timposey: install all the updates with update manager after that anyway would work | 18:52 |

| FluxD | Stoffer: I do not think so | 18:53 |

| noodlesgc | <MrAustin1337> are you using a nVidia card? | 18:53 |
| kst | where can you get additional applets for AWN? how do you configure stuff like fade-out speed? | 18:53 |
| Vlet | Stoffer: oh, without compiz... hmm... open up the keyboard shortcuts control panel and scroll down till you see the option to 'switch to next workspace', etc | 18:53 |
| timposey | FluxD: my update manager keeps locking up and the small window that says Distribution Upgrade just goes blank it may be doing something in the background but it doesn't seem to be. | 18:54 |

| lawke | any knows how to put my keyboard back in azerty ?? I just installed xgl | 18:54 |
| Stoffer | Vlet, ah ok. And shouldn't gnome let me drag windows to other workspaces? | 18:54 |
| noodlesgc | <MrAustin1337> try installing 915resolution | 18:54 |
| Vlet | chris122380: no, using a memory stick as additional video memory would be MUCH worse than just having 8 megs of video memory | 18:54 |
| FluxD | timposey: try a different mirror | 18:54 |
| FluxD | bdragonmsl: install from source? | 18:54 |
| lawke | any knows how to put my keyboard back in azerty ?? I just installed xgl | 18:54 |
| timposey | FluxD: how? | 18:55 |
| Vlet | Stoffer: yeah, I think there's a setting for that, but you have to use gconf editor for it... don't know it off the top of my head, but I'm sure google will find it | 18:55 |

| FluxD | timposey: open up ur sources.list file make a backup copy of it, now if u look at the links it will be like us.archive.com I just change it to uk.archive.ubuntu.com etc | 18:56 |
| GigaClon | how can i edit Places menu? | 18:56 |
| Pici | GigaClon: Change your bookmarks within nautilus | 18:56 |
| Maligen | help me plz...I just reinstalled ubuntu 7.10 and when I want to enable the wireless firmware driver it says: The software source for this package (bcm-43xx) is not enabled. Before the reinstall it worked | 18:56 |
| Vlet | chris122380: you're welcome to try to find a way to do it (which is very unlikely), but it will make performance far slower | 18:56 |
| FluxD | bdragonmsl: the errors should tell u what u are missing or try the readme or install file | 18:56 |
| GigaClon | Pici in Feisty my /storage partition was in Places now it isn't | 18:56 |
| noodlesgc | Maligen open restricted drivers manger | 18:57 |
| bdragonmsl | FluxD, done that. That's why I don't use source. | 18:57 |
| chris122380 | but then one can end it if it not work | 18:57 |
| Maligen | noodlesgc, yes, done | 18:57 |
| Pici | GigaClon: Okay, so go to nautilus and add a bookmark for it. It will then show up under the places menu | 18:57 |
| Tom_Kun | no ideas on how I can fix my problems? | 18:57 |
| noodlesgc | just click on the check box and it should download and install | 18:57 |
| Maligen | noodlesgc: and now ? | 18:57 |
| MrAustin1337 | noodlesgc: trying that, x restart, brb | 18:57 |
| FluxD | bdragonmsl: I dont know what else to say if they are active the maintainer should update it | 18:58 |
| bdragonmsl | FluxD, well, thanks for trying to help. | 18:58 |

| assnisse | Hi! I'm new on ubuntu 7.10 installed it yesterday. But i haven't got my wireless network to work yet! I don't seem to get any connection to my card. Can't find any networks at all. | 19:01 |
| graelb | Are there any known issues with 7.10 and not being able to access your virtual terminals? | 19:01 |
| lawke | hm, aint really working | 19:01 |
| assnisse | Can someone helP+ | 19:01 |
| gfxstyler | but the new one is really worse | 19:01 |
| lawke | where can I set it up? | 19:01 |
| noodlesgc | Maligen after you check the multiverse box, then try the restricted driver manger again | 19:01 |
| FluxD | assnisse: what card? | 19:01 |
| gfxstyler | no cdrom drive, no bootscreen, no second keyboard | 19:01 |
| noodlesgc | <MrAustin1337> You probably will have to set it up somehow, im not sure how, try google | 19:02 |
| Maligen | noodlesgc: still the same error messega | 19:02 |
| jrib | graelb: yes if you are trying to use framebuffer... there is a bug on malone | 19:02 |
| assnisse | FluxD : How to see? | 19:02 |
| assnisse | I'm on a laptop | 19:02 |
| FluxD | assnisse: goto terminal and type in lspci | 19:02 |
| babbleback | lawke: system->preferences->gl_desktop | 19:02 |
| graelb | jrib: I have no idea what malone is... I never set it to use a framebuffer, how would i make sure that's the issue? | 19:02 |

| FluxD | assnisse: do u have access to internet because u will need some other files | 19:03 |
| Maligen | noodlesgc: fine it works :)) | 19:03 |
| assnisse | yea! I'm on a wired connection now! | 19:04 |
| Drafell | total ubuntu newbie here... I need to know how to add a device to the initialization list when you log in to ubuntu... | 19:04 |
| plus_m2 | I have a bit of a weird problem. I have these two computers, DUCK and CHICKEN, and I need to make a script to automate the upload ofa file over sftp from DUCK to CHICKEN. I tried to generate an rsa key pair on DUCK but it still prompts for a password. What's weird though is I generated an rsa key pair on CHICKEN and then I could sftp to DUCK without being prompted for a password | 19:04 |
| Maligen | noodlesgc: thank you very much | 19:04 |
| Drafell | tired of having to type the stings in terminal | 19:04 |
| noodlesgc | maligen no problem | 19:04 |
| Drafell | strings* | 19:04 |
| FluxD | assnisse: what copany makes the laptop? | 19:04 |
| plus_m2 | But not matter what I do it still prompts for a password when I try to sftp from DUCK to CHICKEN | 19:04 |
| Maligen | bye all | 19:04 |
| assnisse | acer | 19:04 |
| graelb | jrib: ok then. I'll look into it there, thanks =) | 19:05 |
| Zippy2 | is rsa deprecated for ssh public keys? | 19:05 |
| FluxD | assnisse: goto acer website and download the drivers for it , I presume u are u on gutsy also? | 19:05 |
| Zippy2 | is rsa just for version 1 or can you use rsa for 2? | 19:05 |
| kazim59 | How to tell apt-get to install something and also keep its .deb? | 19:05 |
| assnisse | FluxD : Yea! | 19:05 |
| kazim59 | *.deb s | 19:05 |
| plus_m2 | I don't know | 19:05 |
| jrib | graelb: that's one possibility I know of because it bit me | 19:05 |
| plus_m2 | Also both sshd_config files are identical | 19:05 |
| FluxD | assnisse: are u on ur laptop with wired internet now? | 19:05 |
| noodlesgc | kazim59 your temp folder for debs is /var/cache/apt/archives | 19:06 |
| unice | plus_m2: ssh works? | 19:06 |
| plus_m2 | yes | 19:06 |
| plus_m2 | It just requires a password | 19:06 |
| plus_m2 | Which is bad | 19:06 |
| kazim59 | noodlesgc: not all debs are there... I know apt-get had downloaded more | 19:06 |
| Zippy2 | is it asking for a password or passphrase | 19:06 |
| graelb | jrib: I haven't gotten through this bug report yet, is there a fix that works? | 19:06 |
| assnisse | FluxD : Yup! | 19:06 |
| plus_m2 | password | 19:06 |
| plus_m2 | I did not input a passphrase | 19:06 |
| plus_m2 | When I generated the key pairs | 19:06 |
| graelb | jrib: at least for you? | 19:06 |
| unice | well i mean in opposition to sftp but alright | 19:06 |
| noodlesgc | kazim59 they get cleared after a while, check your settings in synaptic | 19:06 |
| plus_m2 | No | 19:06 |

| Zippy2 | did you move the public key of the host you want to ssh from to the ~/.ssh/authorized_keys file on the host you want to ssh to | 19:06 |
| plus_m2 | ssh and sftp both require passwords | 19:06 |
| FluxD | assnisse: go download the drivers then goto system administration restricted drivers manager | 19:06 |
| plus_m2 | Zippy2: yes | 19:07 |

| plus_m2 | That's what happens when I clear known_hosts and try to ssh | 19:11 |
| Zippy2 | plus_m2: thats a host key, not your public key | 19:11 |
| plus_m2 | unice: yes | 19:11 |
| kimmey | it workes ok other places.. but not here.. and since it works fine in windows i dont know if its the ap here or something in ubuntu | 19:11 |

| jotil | FluxD: http://i21.tinypic.com/332nl0j.jpg sorry, i updated it now | 19:12 |
| KNY | fyrestrtr, mirrors.rit.edu -- what md5 and release are you using? | 19:12 |
| plus_m2 | Zippy2 so far everything you've asked about I've already checked | 19:12 |
| Zippy2 | plus_m2: are you using openssh? sun ssh? | 19:12 |
| plus_m2 | open | 19:12 |
| FluxD | jotil: u plan to install in that green space? | 19:12 |
| Zippy2 | is public key auth allowed on the server? | 19:12 |
| plus_m2 | Well | 19:12 |
| Stoffer | lawke, that just happened to me after I updgraded to gutsy. Don't know why though. | 19:12 |
| fyrestrtr | I can't match my md5 sum for the guty desktop i386 iso, and I got mine from the osuosl labs. | 19:12 |
| Zippy2 | did you ssh -vvv and check to see if its trying it and trying to red your files? | 19:12 |
| plus_m2 | Both sshd_config files are the same | 19:12 |
| plus_m2 | And it works one way and not the other | 19:12 |
| Zippy2 | theyre the same but do they allow public key auth? | 19:12 |
| plus_m2 | Yes | 19:12 |
| plus_m2 | The ydo | 19:12 |
| unice | plus_m2: using ssh-agent? | 19:12 |
| plus_m2 | no | 19:13 |
| Zippy2 | unice: he doesnt need ssh-agent to use public key auth | 19:13 |
| Zippy2 | it's an extra step | 19:13 |

| bliss_ | ompaul: evening | 19:13 |

| fyrestrtr | KNY: I can't match my md5 sum for the guty desktop i386 iso, and I got mine from the osuosl labs. | 19:13 |

| radge | does anyone know if ubuntu supports soundblaster x-fi xtreme music pci cards? | 19:14 |
| KNY | fyrestrtr, what's your md5? | 19:14 |
| WorkingOnWise | how can I change permissions recursively on a folder? the gui from nautilus is not doing it even though I click the "Apply permisions to enclosed files". I guess that does not include folders? | 19:14 |
| Zippy2 | plus_m2: whats the rest of it? | 19:14 |
| plus_m2 | Uh | 19:14 |
| plus_m2 | usage | 19:14 |
| Zippy2 | wtf are you talking baout | 19:14 |
| Zippy2 | ssh user@host -vvv | 19:14 |
| FluxD | jotil: I meant the unallocated space boot into livecd select manual and u might have to partition that into 2 1 for ubuntu and 1 for swap | 19:14 |
| plus_m2 | yes | 19:14 |
| bastid_raZor | fresh install of 7.10.. trying to turn on desktop effects. it gives no error message in the GUI what can i run CLI to see what the problem is? | 19:14 |
| plus_m2 | oh | 19:14 |
| MyWay | when starting, my ubuntu 7.10 persistent from usb pen drive stops to the prompt saying "(INITRAMFS)", why? | 19:14 |
| plus_m2 | You just said to do ssh -vvv | 19:14 |
| Zippy2 | why would i tell you to show me the usage | 19:14 |
| plus_m2 | I don't know | 19:14 |
| Zippy2 | i meant ssh with -vvv added | 19:14 |
| plus_m2 | THat's what i was wondering | 19:14 |
| Drafell | Anyone...? | 19:14 |
| KNY | bastid_raZor, `compiz` | 19:15 |
| Stoffer | lawke, well, I haven't tried fixing it yet. But I would try removing compiz w/ synaptic then installing it again. Just selecting "mark for reinstallation" did nothing for me. | 19:15 |
| jotil | FluxD: i will use the alternate cd, it will not have gparted on it. | 19:15 |
| bliss_ | fyrestrtr: is it possible to connect to more than one remote server at a time useing the connect to server gui? | 19:15 |
| FluxD | jotil: the normal one has alternate on it | 19:15 |
| jeward_ | Do I need a special kernel in gutsy for 4G RAM? | 19:15 |
| noodlesgc | will my computer shutdown if im on battery power and i try to upgrade? | 19:15 |
| FluxD | jotil: I mean gparted | 19:15 |
| Stoffer | lawke, I just removed compiz completely. I might go back to it later. I was having issues w/ my workspaces | 19:15 |
| fyrestrtr | KNY: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/41960/ | 19:15 |
| Stoffer | lawke, due to an upgrade to gutsy | 19:15 |
| weedar | currently /var/www is owned by root.root but I want to have an ftp account to upload to this area - do I have to use the user root for this or is there another solution? | 19:15 |

| plus_m2 | Zippy2: http://pastebin.ca/748257 | 19:16 |
| kritzstapf | should i install ardour2 or ardour2-i686 on my athlon xp 2000+ machine? | 19:16 |
| fyrestrtr | bliss_: you can have multiple connections to the same server -- is that what you are asking? | 19:16 |
| kritzstapf | oh without the 2 | 19:16 |
| WorkingOnWise | jeward_ yup. a x64 version of Gutsy, not just the kernel. | 19:16 |
| Zippy2 | plusm2 | 19:16 |
| KNY | fyrestrtr, that's definitely not right. Try mirrors.rit.edu | 19:16 |
| Zippy2 | do you have a user that wlil take ssh privilege separation? | 19:16 |
| jotil | FluxD: i want to use the alternate cd. i only have the alternate cd. | 19:16 |
| Zippy2 | like "sshd"? | 19:16 |
| bastid_raZor | Checking for Xgl: not present. is the only failure i see | 19:16 |
| lawke | Stoffer, but its weird I can play with the windows.. but just not use the cube | 19:16 |
| plus_m2 | I don't believe I do | 19:16 |
| fyrestrtr | KNY: *sigh* okay | 19:16 |
| KNY | :) | 19:16 |
| Zippy2 | if you checked your logs it would have said the user is missing | 19:16 |
| jeward_ | WorkingOnWise: Hmmm, so I'd need to reinstall x64 to utilize the 4G? | 19:16 |
| scguy318 | bastid_raZor: i guess you'll have to do a bit of tweaking after you install xserver-xgl | 19:17 |
| MyWay | when starting, my ubuntu 7.10 persistent from usb pen drive stops to the prompt saying "(INITRAMFS)", why? | 19:17 |
| FluxD | jotil: oh I see, hmm I am not sure I have never tried install with alternate cd | 19:17 |
| plus_m2 | What user | 19:17 |
| plus_m2 | sshd? | 19:17 |
| scguy318 | fyrestrtr: BitTorrent is great too | 19:17 |
| jeward_ | WorkingOnWise: Hmmm, so I'd need to reinstall x64 to utilize the 4G? | 19:17 |
| bliss_ | fyrestrtr: no not the same server say two or three diffrent remote addresses? | 19:17 |
| plus_m2 | Because I didn't do anything fancy when I installed openssh | 19:17 |
| Vlet | weedar: I usually create a group called 'webdev' and make that the group owner of it, and change the owner to my personal account, and chmod 775 it | 19:17 |
| plus_m2 | I mean this is ubuntu after all, I just installed it from the repositories | 19:17 |
| Zippy2 | does ubuntu disable privilege separation? im not using it now | 19:17 |
| plus_m2 | I don't know | 19:17 |
| WorkingOnWise | jeward_ yes, unfortunately theres no clean upgrade from x32 to x64 | 19:17 |
| plus_m2 | I don't use ubuntu normally either | 19:17 |
| fyrestrtr | scguy318: know of a tracker? | 19:17 |
| plus_m2 | I'm an Arch guy | 19:17 |
| Vlet | weedar: the only annoying thing is that newly created files will be set ast 755 | 19:17 |
| Zippy2 | plus_m2: check your sshd logs | 19:18 |

| scguy318 | WorkingOnWise: supposedly on Gutsy the flashplugin-nonfree package should handle the whole x64 bit | 19:20 |
| FluxD | cthuljew: ask away :) | 19:20 |
| jeward_ | WorkingOnWise: 32 bit is working so well, I hate to mess with it. | 19:21 |
| cthuljew | Every time I upgrade ubuntu, the theme I use disappears. Namely, the window border. http://www.sacredchao.net/~cthuljew/Screenshot.png | 19:21 |
| WorkingOnWise | scguy318 yeah, I have it, and it works great, 95% of the time. | 19:21 |
| jeward_ | WorkingOnWise: Flash and 3d both work perfectly. | 19:21 |
| jewbilee | Whenever I move a window from one desktop to another (Im using Compiz Fusion with the cube effects), the window does not show up in one of the 4 desktops at the bottom and if I click one of the bottom 4 desktops, all of my toolbars go away | 19:21 |
| cthuljew | I'm wondering if anyone knows 1) the name of that window border, and 2) why it disappears when I upgrade. | 19:21 |
| SeJo | hey all i've used http://faler.wordpress.com/2007/10/14/ubuntu-linux-710-gutsy-gibbon-on-a-sony-vaio-sz4-xwn/ to turn ipv6 off but ifconfig still shows an ipv6 address, is there somewhere else i should turn it off? | 19:21 |
| scguy318 | SeJo: you shouldn't need to disable IPv6 explicitly, and leaving it on is a-ok | 19:21 |
| WorkingOnWise | jeward_ as long as you never need about 3.2GB of ram, stay there. Performance, there's very little gain, if any. | 19:22 |
| FluxD | cthuljew: check in in .themes folder | 19:22 |
| bliss_ | fyrestrtr: no not the same server say two or three diffrent remote addresses? | 19:22 |
| cthuljew | FluxD: No, the problem is, that's the border style that's no longer there. | 19:22 |
| SeJo | scguy318: not here, my router isn't ipv6 configured | 19:22 |

| liberum | I FINALLY got compiz working with my ATI card... i'm so happy :) But a problem... the system hangs for a seconds then and then, and after that it goes well again for a while. A simple task like scrolling can be a bit jerky. Ideas? Doesn't seem to be any 3D rendering problem | 19:22 |
| MyWay | when starting, my ubuntu 7.10 persistent from usb pen drive stops to the prompt saying "(INITRAMFS)", why? | 19:22 |

| WorkingOnWise | how can I change permissions recursively on a folder? the gui from nautilus is not doing it even though I click the "Apply permisions to enclosed files". I guess that does not include folders? | 19:23 |

| fo_x86 | can anyone help me get my partitions recognized? | 19:23 |

| jjunsted | hi all, I just upgraded my cpu from an old sempron to an athlon x2. Is there a way to tell ubuntu to upgrade everything to a 64 bit progs. libraries, etc, or am i going to be forced to reinstall ubuntu? | 19:24 |
| cthuljew | Oh hey. Look at that. index.theme actually lists it... | 19:25 |
| void^ | jjunsted: that's a different architecture, so it will require a new install. you can keep your $home with your user configuration, though. | 19:25 |
| mc44 | jjunsted: you have to reinstall, but unless you really need to use 64bit its probably not owrth the effort | 19:25 |
| scguy318 | jjunsted: its a good idea to stay with i386, it may not be worth it to go to x64 unless you have > 4 GB | 19:25 |

| danny3793 | JimmyDee: ok, ill go select that brb real quick | 20:26 |
| Slart | meoblast001: I think since the file is executable it tries to run it as a linux executable instead of "opening" the file with wine | 20:26 |
| meoblast001 | Slart: well if every exe on my system is set to executable, that may take a while | 20:26 |
| meoblast001 | anyways i tried that | 20:26 |
| meoblast001 | with the right click | 20:26 |
| JimmyDee | danny3793: create your first partition as / in the size you want, then the second as /home sized accordingly and the third as swap | 20:27 |
| Slart | every exe on your system is set to executable? | 20:27 |
| FluxD | Beshamo: same case with all prgrams? | 20:27 |
| TU | how do i find my current cpu speed? | 20:27 |
| unice | Mountaingod: well i won't update early next time as some more bugs bother me | 20:27 |
| bil2 | could someone help me get rid of very choppy graphics on WoW on wine on ubuntu 7.10 | 20:27 |
| Zippy2 | TU: cat /proc/cpuinfo | 20:27 |
| jkimball4 | I read that the kernel in gutsy is supposed to allow my processor to run at a lower minimum speed (intel core 2 duo). Is this accurate? If so, how do I enable it? | 20:27 |
| sam_ | hi is it possible to enable 'hot corners' in compiz-config? I cannot find the setting?? | 20:28 |
| Beshamo | well. it seems to be only programs that are not part of gnome. I can run varius apps like mouseconf. I can also open folders with nautilus | 20:28 |
| danny3793 | JimmyDee: ok, and i am trying to install over an old OS, do i rename the one partition table to / and tell it to format that partition? and then add /home as a new table? SWAP is already added on sda5 with 2.3GB | 20:28 |
| Slart | bil2: try asking in #winehq | 20:28 |
| johnnybirdman | AndrejK: sounds like a fun project. with ram that low i would stick with the server only install. I had xubuntu on a 866 with 128 ram for a while, it was painfully slow | 20:28 |
| bloodniece | Does anyne know how to start a minicom session over http? | 20:28 |
| Wooderson | whats a good mp3 application for playing mp3s? im using movie player and it breaks like every 5 seconds... | 20:28 |
| bil2 | will do | 20:28 |
| meoblast001 | Slart: yeah.... its not that, it has the only perfered option as text editor when i right click | 20:28 |
| JimmyDee | danny3793: are you adverse to blowing the whole deal and starting from scratch? | 20:28 |
| TU | cpu MHz : 798.027 | 20:28 |

| Powerking89670 | hi all, a friend of mine is having problems getting a SATA drive to mount (he cant use his comp so I must be his "proxy" of sorts) | 20:29 |
| danny3793 | JimmyDee: Yeah, my 7.04-7.10 upgrade failed, and ive backed up my most important data, excluding the app data though, :( | 20:29 |
| Wooderson | nanonyme: is that like winamp? | 20:29 |
| bloodniece | unice: I need to hyperterminal/minicom to a device connected to a serial to ethernet adapter. | 20:29 |
| AndrejK | johnnybirdman and others: Thanks. I'll give it a go. Will install on newer hard drive so I don't loose old settings and see how it goes. | 20:29 |
| nanonyme | wooderson, audacious is an xmms clone and xmms is a winamp clone | 20:29 |
| Mountaingod | Oh wow, I just realised after my last restart/crash, my panel launchers have rearranged themselves. | 20:29 |
| JimmyDee | danny3793: then manually delete all the partitions and start from scratch with the afforementioned methods | 20:29 |
| sledgeyj | hey guys, and gals | 20:29 |
| FluxD | Beshamo: xchat-gnome ? | 20:30 |
| unice | bloodniece: so where is http involved? | 20:30 |
| Wooderson | nanonyme: cool.. thanks | 20:30 |
| nanonyme | wooderson, so yes, it's much like winamp used to be in the good old days | 20:30 |
| meoblast001 | Slart: any ideas? | 20:30 |
| danny3793 | JimmyDee: how do i do that? | 20:30 |
| MyWay | when starting, my ubuntu 7.10 persistent from usb pen drive stops to the prompt saying "(INITRAMFS)", why? | 20:30 |
| Vlet | TU: dmesg | grep processor | 20:30 |
| Beshamo | FluxD, is using normal xchat, I don't think I got the one for gnome | 20:30 |
| sledgeyj | anyone advise how to resolve this mesage If you do have "inetd" or "xinetd" installed, make sure that /etc/inetd.conf or | 20:30 |
| sledgeyj | /etc/xinetd.d exists." | 20:30 |
| bloodniece | unice: the serial to ethernet uses an IP address as the serial port | 20:30 |
| bil2 | ive got no reply there so ill ask you guys again could someone help me get rid of very choppy graphics on WoW on wine on ubuntu 7.10 | 20:30 |
| bloodniece | unice: no http, really | 20:30 |
| JimmyDee | danny3793: select manual partitioning, then select the first partition, and scroll down to delete partition, lather rinse repeat | 20:30 |
| Slart | meoblast001: I'll check some of my wine-executables.. you have installed the files under linux.. you're not trying to run stuff from a ntfs-drive or something | 20:30 |

| danny3793 | JimmyDee: ok ill go do that, then make / 3GB in size, is that good? | 20:31 |
| unice | no i'm on ssh | 20:31 |
| bloodniece | unice: telnet is a no go. has to be a terminal emulator | 20:31 |
| sledgeyj | i am trying to install vmware server, and getting error that I dont have xine installed | 20:31 |
| FluxD | Beshamo: hmm that is strange | 20:31 |
| pike_ | sledgeyj: well that is odd | 20:31 |
| sledgeyj | i have it on two seperate boxes | 20:31 |
| sledgeyj | same error | 20:31 |
| unice | bloodniece: that is not possible | 20:32 |
| MyWay | when starting, my ubuntu 7.10 persistent from usb pen drive stops to the prompt saying "(INITRAMFS)", why? | 20:32 |
| Beshamo | FluxD, yeah I thought so | 20:32 |
| JimmyDee | danny: might want 5gb or so unless youre putting /usr in its own partition | 20:32 |
| gilos | is vmware server free for ubuntu server? | 20:32 |
| pike_ | gilos: yes | 20:32 |
| sledgeyj | yes | 20:32 |
| meoblast001 | Slart: yes.... the problem is, when i set the default open with to Wine Windows Emulator, it removes it from the right click menu and swaps it with Text Editor | 20:32 |
| pike_ | sledgeyj: might be easier to grab the installer from vmware website. ive never had a problem with it | 20:32 |
| bloodniece | Wait how to you telnet to a say: 192.168.0.25 port 3095? | 20:32 |
| FluxD | Beshamo: did u try a restart? | 20:32 |
| Slart | meoblast001: wow.. I too get a "warning bla bla executable" when double clicking.. but not when selecting the default action from right-click menu.. must be something new | 20:32 |
| sledgeyj | that is where I got it | 20:32 |
| MyWay | when starting, my ubuntu 7.10 persistent from usb pen drive stops to the prompt saying "(INITRAMFS)", why? | 20:32 |
| danny3793 | JimmyDee: would putting /usr in a seperate partition be better than keeping it as part of /? that way i dont lose my apps or any installed libraries, etc? | 20:32 |
| fyrestrtr | bloodniece: telnet 192.168.0.25 3095 | 20:32 |
| bloodniece | nvm | 20:32 |

| fyrestrtr | MyWay: stop repeating | 20:33 |
| Slart | meoblast001: not sure.. it might be a feature =) | 20:33 |

| sledgeyj | fluxD that does not work | 20:34 |
| fyrestrtr | o00w: have you checked on getdeb.net? | 20:34 |

| meoblast001 | Slart: well i cant find anything, but its ok... i dont need it | 20:38 |
| Flannel | Ongaku: Gutsy has 2.14, you should just upgrade. Feisty will always have 2.12 | 20:38 |
| danny3793 | JimmyDee: then /home and /usr should be Logical right? | 20:38 |
| JimmyDee | danny3793: you are correct sir | 20:38 |
| o00w | fyrestrtr: I can run ./configure without issue but when I get "emu.c:893: error: expected ‘)’ before string constant | 20:38 |

| Ongaku | Flannel: I'm kinda new so I don't understand what you said | 20:39 |
| JimmyDee | danny3793: mount point for / should be / ... home should be /home | 20:39 |
| shooood | fluxd > i downloaded it b4 but i can't use it . any easier prog ????? | 20:40 |

| fyrestrtr | ackerpaul: the standard ones. | 20:41 |

| profanephobia | how can i install FGLRX 8.41 (instead of 8.42)? | 20:43 |
| fyrestrtr | o00w: you really don't need to be compiling stuff if you don't know what it is that you are supposed to have installed before you compile it ;) | 20:43 |
| Ongaku | fyrestrtr: so I should just probably wait until I upgrade to Gusty to get Gimp 2.4 then? | 20:43 |

| fyrestrtr | Ongaku: you can check if it has been backported. | 20:44 |
| Ongaku | uhmm lol | 20:44 |
| o00w | fyrestrtr: thank you...I'll research that page | 20:44 |
| Ongaku | i'm semi newbish so how does that work? | 20:44 |
| fyrestrtr | Ongaku: its a fancy word that means see if someone has compiled a version for your release. | 20:44 |

| ubotu | titusg: 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 » | 20:45 |
| fyrestrtr | Ongaku: if a new version of some software becomes available, some people backport it -- means they compile it from source, then create a package for it for the "old" distribution. | 20:45 |
| danny3793 | JimmyDee: :P, i think thats all ill use from now on, only gonna use LiveCD's when backing up data, but that shouldnt be needed now after i fix these partitions | 20:45 |

| Blinny | Theoretically, the LTS releases are the more stable releases, as they have LTS provided, yes? | 20:46 |
| Slart | Zippy2: you can blacklist ipv6 somewhere.. I even think I may have done it on this computer I'm on now.. can't really remember how though.. hang on I'll do some searching | 20:46 |
| fyrestrtr | Blinny: theoretically, yes. | 20:46 |
| Blinny | And the in-between releases provide more functionality | 20:46 |

| ubotu | tj1627: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :) | 20:47 |
| tj1627 | sorry lol, first time on here | 20:47 |
| fyrestrtr | eugo: depends on the patch. Patch generally means to modify a file in a particular location to attain the desired behavior. | 20:47 |
| Ongaku | fyrestrtr: hmmm it only has 2.2 on the backports list | 20:47 |
| legion | in nautilus, how can i search with regular expressions? | 20:48 |
| eugo | hmm ok i wont patch then | 20:48 |
| fyrestrtr | Ongaku: then I guess you should upgrade. I don't think it would be possible to backport it since it relies heavily on gnome libs. | 20:48 |
| arghh2d2 | Vlet: the only thing i can think of that caused this is upgrading the repos the way winehq.com says to do it to get the most recent version of wine for ubuntu 7.10 (wich still locks up btw, wine sucks) | 20:48 |
| kosh- | I am looking for an audio-player similar to XMMS that can parse cue files. Audacious seems to ignore the cue file (although the plugin is active) and for XMMS I cannot compile the mp3cue plugin for use with my AMD64. Any ideas? | 20:48 |
| Beshamo | Does anyone have any idea why my computer is running 10 instances of skim, and several version of other programs as well, under a user I'm not logged in with, and when I'm not even logged into X? | 20:48 |
| fyrestrtr | kosh-: banshee, exaile! are two good ones. | 20:49 |
| Ongaku | fyrestrtr: aww okies...guess I gotta wait until I get the CD or download the .iso cos it wont let me do it thru update manager | 20:49 |
| JimmyDee | beshamo: are you haxxored? | 20:49 |
| FluxD | Beshamo: wow something has relaly gone wrong :/ | 20:49 |
| Blinny | Beshamo: haxred? | 20:49 |
| fyrestrtr | Ongaku: what are you running now? | 20:49 |
| cosmodad | Beshamo: what's skim? | 20:49 |
| wouter__ | what is the xgl package to run compiz? | 20:49 |
| coma | i've downloaded and installed various applications from the synaptic package manager, but none appeared in the applications menu.. is that normal? | 20:49 |
| kosh- | fyrestrtr: Ok I will try those, thanks! | 20:49 |
| FluxD | !skim | 20:49 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about skim - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 20:49 |
| Ongaku | fyrestrtr: feisty | 20:49 |
| Blinny | Beshamo: Unless processes aren't exiting correctly when you were last logged in as that user. | 20:49 |
| Beshamo | jimmydee, well it only happened after I upgraded to Gutsy | 20:49 |
| tritium | coma: depends on which applications they are | 20:49 |

| ubotu | So, you wanted to lure me into saying I don't know anything about anything? Yeah, that would be funny, of course. Now leave me alone. | 20:49 |
| fyrestrtr | Ongaku: you can upgrade from fiesty. | 20:49 |
| tj1627 | !ask here's the post i put on the forum, will better explain my problem: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=589802 | 20:50 |
| Vlet | arghh2d2: but are you on an upgraded version of gutsy, or a clean install? a lot of people have had strange problems with upgraded installs | 20:50 |
| arghh2d2 | Vlet: it only crashes when i try to change the 'welcome message' but it never saves the settings, i'm freeakin out because my g/f's mother is gonna freak if she has to login on this computer | 20:50 |

| ackerpaul | i can't find it in the backports either | 20:50 |
| fyrestrtr | ackerpaul: sure, just compile it. | 20:50 |

| ackerpaul | you're | 20:51 |
| JimmyDee | wouter__:xserver-xgl? | 20:51 |
| ackerpaul | sorry | 20:51 |
| kalleskaviar | so any words of advise before i take the plunge and update ? | 20:51 |
| Ongaku | fyrestrtr: i only have a 1.5GB partition for this...so I'm just going to wait until I get the CD and make this all Ubuntu cos Windows sucks | 20:51 |
| kkrusty | is my fear justified? | 20:51 |
| tritium | ackerpaul: :) | 20:51 |
| Vlet | arghh2d2: so instead, do this: ctfl-f2 and then type: gksudo gedit /etc/gdm/gdm.conf | 20:51 |
| fyrestrtr | kalleskaviar: grab a book to read. | 20:51 |
| arghh2d2 | Vlet: yes i am, but i had changed a few settings before the wine upgrade and they saved and worked fine,,,now that you mention it tho, there was the issue with default color reverting back to brown and not saving to my black prefernces | 20:51 |
| Vlet | arghh2d2: and edit the message manually | 20:51 |
| Blinny | kkrusty: No worries. | 20:51 |
| fyrestrtr | kalleskaviar: or watch a movie -- I recommend 'Spaceballs'. | 20:51 |
| ackerpaul | fyrestrtr: haven't done that for years ;) | 20:51 |
| ackerpaul | fyrestrtr: sh configure | 20:51 |
| ackerpaul | an so on? | 20:52 |
| coma | tritium: nethack, vnc server and vlc | 20:52 |

| rainrunner87 | Hi all, I'm having a problem with wicd. It was hanging on the "Generating PSK" message, when I connected to my wifi router with an all-numeric WEP key. I used the recommended suggestion of putting the key in quotes. Now, it gets past "Generating PSK", but it won't connect. No IP is assigned. | 21:04 |

| Zippy2 | rhs: apt-get install getopt? | 21:12 |
| FluxD | curi1: u extracted img files using wine? | 21:12 |
| Zippy2 | or apt-cache search getopt and install whichever | 21:12 |
| jrib | rhs: are you using the texlive package from the repositories? | 21:12 |
| curi1 | Zippy2: Situation is that I downloaded the Windows Setup Boot Disks.exe file and I use wine with linux. However, when I run the .exe file it just extracts 6 .img files but I don't know where. | 21:12 |
| dox | Jimdb: yea i can format it, the folders were there when i bought it. how do i format it? | 21:12 |
| lucker | grrr | 21:12 |

I then want to save this as one image. In Windows I'd just open paint, and copy the image by right clicking on it, paste it, expand the screen, and do the same with the other one. But firefox doesn't even seem to let me copy an image (just image location, s | 21:15 |

| Jimdb | dox: vfat (fat32) has some serious limitations. if you want to continue to use it in windows you should consider ntfs instead. if you are only going to use it in linux you should format it to ext3 (ext3 is really ext2 with journaling) | 21:15 |
| fatcatmatt | anybody out there running xubuntu? | 21:15 |
| FluxD | SuicideSalmon: thats not a ubuntu question :/ | 21:15 |

| fatcatmatt | pike_: how do i add more applications to a panel? | 21:16 |

| SuicideSalmon | arghh2d2 has a good point | 21:16 |
| FluxD | SuicideSalmon: more like a firefox question try #firefox here ? | 21:16 |
| Jimdb | dox: you can't remove the partition on a mounted drive in linux | 21:16 |
| tj1627 | Slart: thats fine, thank you | 21:16 |

| tj1627 | Slart: i found them, under examples | 21:20 |

| Jimdb | dox: after it formats you tell it to mount. | 21:23 |
| MrPink | marko: just go to that folder via cd and then write: perl ./scriptname (make sure the folder has the correct rights) | 21:23 |
| curi1 | FluxD: Any update on the windows setup disks? | 21:24 |
| dox | Jimdb: the external hd is now formatted | 21:24 |
| tj1627 | Slart: got it | 21:24 |
| gnurph69 | if i want to create a script file that I can run from a terminal prompt - where would I find instructions on how to do it? | 21:24 |
| x3rus | q | 21:24 |
| Slart | tj1627: next line, which I'm not sure if you really really need but we'll put it in anyway, is just "makeactive" | 21:24 |
| sotec_prod | Phenax, that usually meant, for me, that my hdd was bad. | 21:24 |
| FluxD | curi1: renaming didnt work let me try something else | 21:24 |
| Phenax | fd0 is the floppy disk | 21:24 |
| dox | but how do i mount my internal hd so that i can fully access it? | 21:24 |
| sotec_prod | disk in it? | 21:24 |
| Phenax | but i have no idea what's it's trying to access my (non-existant) floppy-disk | 21:24 |
| sotec_prod | oh | 21:24 |
| XiXaQ | How can I see where all my RAM actually goes? I run top, am told that I have used almost all available RAM, but when I check the processes, the sums don't add up. I then run new tasks. Suddenly I'm getting more RAM from somwhere, but no processes are killed. | 21:24 |
| sotec_prod | I don't know then. | 21:24 |
| tj1627 | Slart: got it | 21:24 |
| Slart | tj1627: and the last line tells it to continue to the windows boot stuff... write "chainloader +1" | 21:24 |
| Jimdb | dox: you mount it with gparted. the program you are using to format it. you right click on it and choose mount. | 21:25 |
| Jimdb | dox: just like you unmounted it you will mount it. | 21:25 |
| Slart | tj1627: now save the file and exit gedit... you should be ready to go | 21:25 |
| AirstrikeIvanov | Does anyone here know Shorewall? I'm having a bit of trouble with it. I put in the rules file, "AllowPing", but Shorewall claims that it's invalid and fails to start. | 21:25 |
| tj1627 | Slart: done, should i save it and restart? (im in the irc on a seperate comp so i can reboot the laptop and remain in here | 21:25 |
| MrPink | Ok the thing is I installed a Ubuntu Theme... and it changed my menu bars to be dark... which made my Firefox and Thunderbird have dark writing on the top menu (so "File" and "Edit" etc.) on dark background... I was able to change this in Firefox in the UserChrome.css... does anybody know where to change this in Thunderbird? | 21:26 |
| Slart | tj1627: sure.. go ahead | 21:26 |
| bmk789 | is there an option to make rsync syncronize files both ways instead of one? | 21:26 |
| bil2 | questions, i made a new kernel, where is it :)? | 21:26 |
| kalleskaviar | gnurph69, try "man bash" or google for bash. (or use another scripting language of choice like perl or...) | 21:27 |
| tj1627 | Slart: wait, it says i can't save the file - i don't have the permissions necessary to save it - no password prompt or anything like that | 21:27 |
| dox | Jimdb: unmounted it, but now when i go bk to gparted, theres no mount-option when right-clicking. the unmount-option is greyed out though | 21:27 |

| SuicideSalmon | it's sad how often on-going products are shipped as is on deadline day, I don't know about other people but I would have rather waited another month to upgrade, rather than be in the position I'm in now where I'm looking at a clean install of 7.04 | 21:30 |

| ScarEye | So installed a fresh copy of ubuntu 7.10 on a Dell PowerEdge 4600 which has hardware raid. The installation seems like it went through fine. But when it reboots for the first time (after installation is complete) it's keeps saying [658.888313] aacraid: Host adapter abort request 4,1,14,0 anyone have any ideas on how I can fix this ? | 21:31 |
| dox | Jimdb: yea | 21:31 |
| MrPink | Ok the thing is I installed a Ubuntu Theme... and it changed my menu bars to be dark... which made my Firefox and Thunderbird have dark writing on the top menu (so "File" and "Edit" etc.) on dark background... I was able to change this in Firefox in the UserChrome.css... does anybody know where to change this in Thunderbird? | 21:31 |
| Jimdb | dox: and it should show an entry in the lower part of that window. right click and choose mount on | 21:31 |
| nickrud | Hamppari: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=589075 has some safe install instructions; they're kinda scattered right now but if you go thru all the posts it's complete | 21:31 |
| tj1627 | Slart: it restarted and the windows prompt is there, when selecting it it posts a message: Windows could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt: | 21:31 |
| tj1627 | <Windows root>\system32\hal.dll. | 21:31 |
| tj1627 | Please re-install a copy of the above file. | 21:31 |
| dox | JImdb: it only shows the external | 21:32 |
| Slart | tj1627: hmm.. that's odd.. you have only one drive? | 21:32 |
| Jimdb | when you select the external it will only show the external | 21:32 |
| tsk_ | Hi, when I try to use s2disk saving my image to my swap which is larger than my RAM everything seems to go fine. But when I try to resume Ubuntu does a normal start with a corrupt swap partition. | 21:32 |
| dox | JImdb: yes but what was the entry u were talking about? | 21:32 |
| tsk_ | I have just installed gitsy | 21:32 |

| bil2 | skou: whats the actual img, i have to edit my grub to allow my new kernel to boot | 21:32 |
| bil2 | and basically im confused at this point | 21:32 |
| Jimdb | do you not see the entry for the device listed? what is the device name? | 21:33 |
| tj1627 | Slart: yes, its a laptop. my original guess was something happened to the mbr while installing gusty - since gusty didn't see xp while it was installing to import any settings from | 21:33 |
| giany911 | wtf, window borders stoped working out of a sudden on gutsy | 21:33 |
| bmk789 | is there an option to make rsync syncronize files on both machines, as in put all the files on both machines? | 21:33 |
| kevin0Oo0 | is there a shortcut to switching workspaces? | 21:33 |
| gspr | Are there any X-developers around? After upgrading to Gutsy, me and some (presumably many) are encountering a showstopper problem with X: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/155312 | 21:33 |

| liquid | for wireless net | 21:33 |
| Jimdb | yes, gparted under gutsy tends to shut down sometimes. | 21:33 |
| marx2k | Is there a Yaukake style shell app for Gnome? | 21:33 |
| Jimdb | dox: just restart it. | 21:34 |
| Slart | tj1627: that sounds reasonable.. do you have the original install disk? | 21:34 |
| dox | Jimdb: done it several times now... | 21:34 |
| Jimdb | yeah, when i mount a volume it will shut down gparted on me every time. | 21:34 |
| tj1627 | Slart: i have the install disks (XP mce sp2) and saw some things about using fixmbr or something along those lines, but it warns against using it with multiple operating systems - says it could make the disk inaccessible | 21:34 |

| Jimdb | dox: so the device is really /dev/sda1 | 21:35 |
| marko-_- | ? | 21:35 |
| tj1627 | Slart: i figured i'd ask someone who may know more than me about a mbr or what to use to fix it | 21:35 |
| curi1 | FluxD: Anything yet? | 21:35 |
| Slart | tj1627: hmm.. and you have important stuff on that windows drive, right? | 21:35 |
| marx2k | TexJoachim, thanks, I will now install it :) | 21:35 |

| ckw | what must I do to change the default runlevel from 5 to 3? | 21:36 |
| punzada | can't say for sure either way | 21:36 |
| Jimdb | dox: when you select the device in the lower half of the gparted window you have the entry for /dev/sda1 i would assume | 21:36 |
| kevin0Oo0 | ... | 21:36 |
| curi1 | :) | 21:36 |
| light5o | kevin0Oo0 you mean like ctrl alt right | 21:36 |

| bqmassey | ok, thanks PriceChild | 21:37 |
| bil2 | please help :( | 21:37 |

| bqmassey | is there a good graphical format tool in ubunto 7.04? | 21:37 |
| nickrud | [chr0n0s]: I believe that evolution uses the gnome proxy ... | 21:37 |
| PriceChild | Slart, can write now too | 21:38 |
| dox | Jimdb: yeah, sda, has ext3 and swap | 21:38 |
| eftedal | Could someone please check their settings on the fire painter, and tell be if the intiate key is set to disable? | 21:38 |
| PriceChild | bqmassey, gparted | 21:38 |
| kevin0Oo0 | light5o: nope that just switches the expo plugin, i need the actual workspace shortcut comand | 21:38 |
| dox | Jimdb: and sdb1 only ext3 | 21:38 |
| Jimdb | dox: so, select the ext3 partition | 21:38 |
| eftedal | I am unable to change it, as it pops back to disabled.. | 21:38 |

| dox | Jimdb: how do i find out | 21:38 |
| [chr0n0s] | nickrud, so setting the proxy in gnome, and logging back in xfce will work ? | 21:39 |
| Jimdb | dox: how many hard drives are in your computer including the one you have attached to it externally? | 21:39 |
| nickrud | [chr0n0s]: use gconf-editor to navigate to /system/http_proxy | 21:39 |
| kalleskaviar | bmk789, not really. Just do one way then the other. There's and example of a Makefile to automate it for you in the man-file. | 21:39 |
| Slart | ok ok ok people.. you can stop telling me about ntfs support in gutsy.. thank you all.. appreciate it.. =) | 21:39 |
| bmk789 | Tamale: vmware server, qemu, and virtualbox are all good options | 21:39 |
| Skelet0n | my wireless does not show up in the network-admin | 21:39 |
| dox | Jimdb: two. the internal and the external | 21:39 |
| bmk789 | kalleskaviar: ok thanks | 21:39 |
| c0Ld | does anyone know of a script or plugin that can export HTML playlists in any linux media player like winamp could do? | 21:39 |
| nickrud | [chr0n0s]: but make sure gconfd-2 is running, there's a method to keep the gnome config stuff running in xfce I do think | 21:40 |
| Jimdb | is the external drive connected via USB? | 21:40 |
| dox | JImdb: yea | 21:40 |
| Slart | tj1627: if you want we can take a look at that drive and see what is there.. I'll just have to check the syntax for mounting a ntfs-drive | 21:40 |
| [chr0n0s] | nickrud, let me try | 21:40 |
| kevin0Oo0 | bqmassey: just type sudo gparted in terminal or go to system>administration>gparted | 21:40 |
| marko-_- | how do i restart the taskbar | 21:40 |
| bqmassey | kevin0Oo0: thanks | 21:40 |
| kevin0Oo0 | bqmassey: you have to install it first too | 21:40 |
| Jimdb | dox: is the internal drive connected with a wide ribbon cable or a narrow red or black or yellow cable? | 21:40 |
| nickrud | marko-_-: in a terminal, gnome-panel & | 21:41 |
| tj1627 | Slart: that sounds good | 21:41 |
| Tamale | bmk789: can virtual box play vmware images | 21:41 |

| nickrud | kevin0Oo0: ctl-alt-> left right | 21:41 |
| marko-_- | nickrud, it didn't worked anyway... you know i can't add add to panel stuff and i don't see which programms i have openned... :S | 21:41 |

| Jimdb | dox: just read me the devices listed in the gparted>devices menu | 21:42 |
| nickrud | [chr0n0s]: ps aux | grep gconf | 21:42 |
| marko-_- | nickrud, yes and i don't see which programms i have opened | 21:42 |
| anars | what are your thoughts on installing Ubuntu 7.10 on a Core 2 Duo-machine? Should I go with 32bit or 64bit? How are the package sortiment in 32bit compared to 64bit? | 21:42 |
| kevin0Oo0 | nickrud that just switched the expo plugins workspace, i right clicked xmms on the paner bar and sent it to workspace 2, now its gone, i did ctrl alt left and right but its gone | 21:43 |
| nickrud | marko-_-: ok, try right clicking on the very top pixel row of the panel | 21:43 |

| Skratz0r | It should wipe it, and install Ubuntu | 21:45 |
| kevin0Oo0 | bqmassey: just run the installer then, it will wipe the hard drive for you | 21:45 |

| Jimdb | dox: change to the /media folder | 21:52 |
| void^ | nios: nvidia's driver doesn't show the actual refresh rates by default, they call it a feature. it can be made to show the correct rates by adding Option "DynamicTwinView" "false" in xorg.conf | 21:52 |
| Slart | tj1627: ouch.. never had that error before.. had any problems with the hard drive before? | 21:52 |

| tj1627 | Slart: i plan on it, waiting for him to get off work | 21:55 |

| Jimdb | dox: exthd is just a folder in /media until you tell it to mount something into the file system at that location (exthd) | 22:43 |

| gyaresu | Where do I set variables permenantly? (Instead of 'export MPD_HOST=192.168.1.4'). | 23:00 |
| Jimmey | Danny3793, ahh. Ignore me then :-P | 23:00 |
| dox | JImdb: yea but it has nothing to do with the external hd though? i hope | 23:00 |
| beni | dogwater: what does iwconfig say? | 23:00 |
| Jimdb | dox: does he have an external 2.5" usb enclosure? | 23:00 |
| Danny3793 | Steve^: I have integrated chipsets (6100, and an nforce, both integrated) | 23:00 |
| Danny3793 | Jimmey: lol you tried :P | 23:00 |
| Steve^ | Danny3793, Windows or Ubuntu? | 23:00 |
| Danny3793 | Jimmey: i htink i have tried everything | 23:00 |
| Jimdb | dox: your external drive is fine. | 23:00 |
| deneme_ | hi everyone | 23:00 |
| Jimdb | dox: earlier you identified that your notebook came with a hitach hdd. | 23:00 |
| dox | Jimdb: good. sorry i dnt get it: what you mean by 2.5 usb enclosure | 23:00 |
| patricknev | i have ubuntu installed, is there anyway to install the xubuntu-desktop packages and try out xfce4? | 23:00 |
| Danny3793 | Steve^: I currently have Ubuntu 7.10 64 bit installed, and i realy dont want to go to Windows | 23:00 |
| con-man | so Im trying to install the Nvidia driver and it says I cant have X running... what do I do? | 23:00 |
| Jimdb | dox: your external hdd is nothing but a desktop hdd in a external 3.5" usb enclosure. | 23:01 |
| Jimmey | patricknev, sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop | 23:01 |
| Steve^ | Danny3793, do you have windows installed? I'm not suggesting you switch to it | 23:01 |
| ubuntu_Iz | can i use edgy packages on dapper? | 23:01 |
| patricknev | Jimmey, but then how do i switch to xfce4? | 23:01 |
| Steve^ | Danny3793, permanently or anything.... its just you can see if its a software problem | 23:01 |
| Danny3793 | Steve^: no i dont, and i dont have a windows CD either =\ | 23:01 |
| Jimdb | dox: there are external 2.5" enclosures for laptop hard drives | 23:01 |
| Steve^ | (drivers) | 23:01 |
| con-man | anyone? | 23:01 |
| Jimmey | patricknev, it should be available from the "Sessions" menu at the login screen | 23:01 |
| dox | Jimdb: i c | 23:01 |
| spanks | What lines do I type for creating a directory and mounting a FAT32 hard drive I can see in Device Manager? | 23:02 |
| === rmjackson is now known as rmjackson|gone | ||
| Jimdb | dox: you can buy extneral enclosures 2.5" or 3.5" without the drives in them. | 23:02 |
| Steve^ | Danny3793, does this happen often? So if you ran a LiveCD it would happen? | 23:02 |
| deneme_ | I installed Ubuntu server version but i can7t login desktop manager how can i do? | 23:02 |
| con-man | so Im trying to install the Nvidia driver and it says I cant have X running... what do I do? | 23:02 |
| gyaresu | Found my own answer: If you need to set variables permenantly then add them to '/etc/environment' | 23:02 |
| beni | spanks: create a directory: mkdir <name> | 23:02 |
| Danny3793 | Steve^: the only OS's i have here are Ubuntu and Windows 2000, but idk if that will work with an AMD Athlon x2 64 4000+ | 23:02 |
| spanks | beni: done | 23:02 |
| dox | Jimdb: but do u think that the files on my laptop hd are unrecoverable? | 23:02 |
| Jimdb | dox: then you can remove your notebook drive put it into a 2.5" enclosure, then connect it up to his computer (windows I would gather) and then copy the files using windows. | 23:02 |
| scguy318 | con-man: go to Recovery Mode, or switch to tty1 (Ctrl-Alt-F1) and type sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop | 23:03 |
| Jimmey | con-man, ctrl + alt + f1, "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop" | 23:03 |
| Danny3793 | Steve^: correct, it happens on 6.06, 7.04, 7.10 32 bit, and 7.10 64 bit (liveCDs, and OS), and it happens at random times, so i dont know what i causing it | 23:03 |
| patricknev | ohh okay thanks Jimmey | 23:03 |
| Jimmey | scguy318, we have beef, you're too quick | 23:03 |
| Jimdb | dox: that's what the drive fitness test will tell you | 23:03 |
| deneme_ | I installed Ubuntu server version but i can7t login desktop manager how can i do? | 23:03 |
| n0yd | kkathman, Eclipse is good enough, Java based, and it's pretty fast considering it's Java | 23:03 |
| scguy318 | deneme_: theres no desktop manager in the Ubuntu Server | 23:03 |
| Jimmey | deneme_, sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop | 23:03 |
| dox | JImdb: o rite. well in fact i think he has one | 23:03 |
| scguy318 | deneme_: if you want one do what Jimmey said | 23:03 |
| spanks | beni: and the actual mountint command? | 23:03 |
| Danny3793 | Steve^: I installed OCZ RAM about 1-2 months ago, ran memtest and it passed 10/10 | 23:03 |
| Jimdb | dox: when fsck fails to scan the file system on a 100gig drive and gparted can't resolve the issue either then you the odds are growing that something else is wrong. | 23:03 |
| deneme_ | thanks | 23:03 |
| scguy318 | Jimmey: me too :P | 23:04 |
| Jimmey | scguy318, :-P | 23:04 |
| yokomo | is there a program like daemon tools for linux? I want to be able to mount cd images... | 23:04 |
| dox | JImdb: it wouldnt be broken tho, wat u think | 23:04 |
| n0yd | yokomo, yes, there are a couple | 23:04 |
| spanks | What lines do I type for mounting a FAT32 hard drive I can see in Device Manager? I have already created a folder to mount it in. | 23:04 |
| Steve^ | Danny3793, I don't think a HDD failure would be the problem, I'd expect read errors and a horrible graining noise | 23:04 |
| Jimdb | dox: you can download the ext2fs from sourceforge.net. it is a driver for windows which allows you to gain read write access to ext2/3 file systems. | 23:04 |
| n0yd | I forget the names though unfortunately | 23:04 |
| Jimmey | yokomo, sudo mount -o loop /location/of/iso.iso /place/to/mount | 23:04 |
| Steve^ | Danny3793, a CPU problem, usually from overheating, is usually just sudden powering off | 23:04 |
| Danny3793 | Steve^: yeah, and i have none of those =\ | 23:04 |
| beni | spanks: what do you want to mount? | 23:04 |
| Jimdb | dox: you need to run the hitachi drive fitness test against the drive first to see for sure. | 23:04 |
| Steve^ | Danny3793, which leaves RAM, is my educated guess | 23:05 |
| spanks | beni: sdb1 | 23:05 |
| scguy318 | yokomo: there is AcetoneISO2, you'll have to find 3rd party debs for that | 23:05 |
| Danny3793 | Steve^: sometimes it suddenly restarts, but i think that is because of the OS not the CPU itself | 23:05 |
| n0yd | Jimmey, That only handles .isos and .imgs, there is app that does everything, nero images, mdf's you name | 23:05 |
| Jimmey | yokomo, I'll help you a bit more than that if you want | 23:05 |
| beni | spanks: sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /path/to/a/dir | 23:05 |
| Steve^ | Danny3793, or your graphics chip fizzled out | 23:05 |
| Jimmey | n0yd, ahh | 23:05 |
| beni | Danny3793: then your CPU is fucked up | 23:05 |
| Danny3793 | Steve^: Do you think OCZ will take it back with probable cause and not actual proof that it isnt working? | 23:05 |
| scguy318 | n0yd: that would be AcetoneISO2, a frontend I think to fuseiso | 23:05 |
| tonyyarusso | !ohmy | beni | 23:05 |
| ubotu | beni: Please watch your language and topic, and keep this channel family friendly. | 23:05 |
| Danny3793 | Steve^: how can i check that? | 23:05 |
| Steve^ | Danny3793, OCZ? | 23:05 |
| n0yd | scguy318, Ya, I couldnt think of the name. I also think there is more than one. | 23:05 |
| dox | Jimdb: Ok. but if ubuntu would install, the hd would be ok? | 23:05 |
| spanks | beni: i am receiving "mount: you must specify the filesystem type" | 23:06 |
| Danny3793 | Steve^: yes, i bought 2GB of Dual Channel OCZ RAM (2 x 1GB Sticks) | 23:06 |
| spanks | beni: it is fat32 | 23:06 |
| dox | Jimdb: or could it install and the hd still hav problems | 23:06 |
| scguy318 | spanks: vfat? | 23:06 |
| Steve^ | Danny3793, visual artefacts would come from graphics most likely, but I wouldn't expect your computer to freeze or anything (it didn't for me, I don't think) | 23:06 |
| spanks | scguy318, what is the default format for ubuntu? | 23:06 |
| Jimdb | dox: my first step would be to run the drive fitness test. second step would be to put the drive in an extneral enclosure and use the ext2fs driver for windows to see if you can get access to the files. if the files don't matter and the drive fitness test says everything is ok, then you should just reinstall (reformat and install) fresh. | 23:06 |
| Steve^ | Danny3793, you still have your old ram? | 23:06 |
| siloko | success - copied the apt cache rather than create a new repo with apt-move . . . thanks whoever suggested that!! | 23:06 |
| scguy318 | spanks: default like? | 23:06 |
| beni | spanks: sudo mount -t vfat /dev/sdb1 /path/dir/ | 23:07 |
| Jimdb | dox: but only after you run the drive fitness test | 23:07 |
| spanks | default format when for installing a clean ubuntu install. what is the usual file system it uses? | 23:07 |
| Danny3793 | Steve^: I had 7.04 originally, and upgraded to 7.10 but it failed halfway through, and now im stuck here after 4 days of trying each OS because none would work, i never experienced these problems until after the failed upgrade.. | 23:07 |
| siloko | meg download about 150 rather than 800! | 23:07 |
| Danny3793 | Steve^: Yes, but it is in my sisters computer lol, and shes using it right now, but im sure i could get her to let me borrow it for a bit | 23:07 |
| beni | spanks: ext3 | 23:07 |
| Steve^ | Danny3793, so formatting and installing 7.04 doesn't work? | 23:07 |
| Jimdb | dox: i pasted the link to the location where you can download the drive fitness test from hitachi. | 23:07 |
| spanks | scguy318, beni: i am recieving "mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdb1, | 23:07 |
| spanks | missing codepage or helper program, or other error | 23:07 |
| spanks | In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try | 23:07 |
| spanks | dmesg | tail or so | 23:07 |
| spanks | " | 23:07 |
| kalleskaviar | yokomo, If you prefer the pointy-clicky way, i think there are some scripts you can install in Nautilus (the gnome file browser) http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2005/10/24/nautilus-script-to-mount-iso-files/ | 23:08 |
| Danny3793 | Steve^: 7.04 LiveCD doesnt even work, it does the same thing as all the rest and the OS lol | 23:08 |
| eugo | ok i am installing my recompiled kernel | 23:08 |
| Jimdb | dox: http://www.hitachigst.com/hdd/support/download.htm | 23:08 |
| Steve^ | Danny3793, it freezes with graphical issues? | 23:08 |
| scguy318 | spanks: if you're trying to mount a FAT32 partition, you should specify vfat | 23:08 |
| new2ubuntu | hello, I'd like to allow remote users to browse to my website, I can see it locally. Is there some firewall setting that I need to set? Is this what iptables is doing? | 23:08 |
| Danny3793 | Steve^: yep | 23:08 |
| scguy318 | spanks: or simply not specify a filesystem at all for mount to autodetect | 23:08 |
| Jimdb | dox: scroll down and you'll find the .iso file | 23:08 |
| eugo | if it messes up, can i revert to the original kernel without logging in to the system (if i'm locked out) | 23:08 |
| Danny3793 | Steve^: I think the failed upgrade brought this on since it was not happening before.. | 23:08 |
| Jimdb | dox: it is under "Drive fitness test" and is labelled as "CD image" | 23:09 |
| Steve^ | Danny3793, maybe.. but it shouldn't affect hardware as such | 23:09 |
| Danny3793 | Steve^: seeing as the gfx are integrated, do you think it could be the ram? since the gfx has to use ram as its memory source? | 23:09 |
| Steve^ | Danny3793, could be a coincedence.. maybe the installer strectched a bad chip the wrong way | 23:09 |
| Jimmey | new2ubuntu, try downloading and installing firestarter with Synaptic | 23:09 |
| spanks | scguy, beni: i am getting the same error for ext3 and vfat. if i don't specify, i get "mount: you must specify the filesystem type | 23:09 |
| spanks | " | 23:09 |
| ubuntu_Iz | what are the system requirements for ubuntu 7.04? | 23:09 |
| Steve^ | Danny3793, oh, of course, your graphics uses your RAM? | 23:09 |
| dox | Jimdb: ok thanks for everytin man. I really have to go to sleep now but i hope the laptop hd passes the test | 23:09 |
| Jimmey | !requirements | 23:09 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about requirements - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 23:09 |
| Jimmey | Damn | 23:09 |
| Steve^ | Danny3793, that would explain graphical issues too, makes sense | 23:09 |
| Jimdb | dox: if it doesn't you will need to replace it | 23:09 |
| gerro | Is there a small win32 executable to translate .odt to .doc preferably that would fit on a floppy? | 23:10 |
| Steve^ | Danny3793, my course of action would be to slam the old ram in and see what happens | 23:10 |
| Danny3793 | Steve^: they are integrated, and i have about 300MB reserved (250MB of which im sure are for the graphics) | 23:10 |
| dox | Jimbd: yea. hope the warranty covers it | 23:10 |
| new2ubuntu | jimmey: firestarter? I think it's just a firewall thing, I have lighttpd setup | 23:10 |
| Danny3793 | Steve^: alright, ill have to do that, lemme try that real quick, brb | 23:10 |
| StarSys | Hey! I have a problem with my displays... I have ubuntu 7.10 installed with nvidia propertary drivers. Beryl and both my displays (dvi/vga) are working... But does someone know how tu turnoff the span? | 23:10 |
| Jimmey | new2ubuntu, firestarter lets you graphically manage the firewall - Do you have a desktop environment installed? | 23:10 |
| fevel | can someone please help me out...I have installed UT2004 and used getlib to solve the libs dependencies, but when I try to install the patch it asks for the lib libSDL-1.2.so.0ks for. So I do a getlib libSDL-1.2.so.0. But instead it installs a simillar one called libsdl1.2debian-all. Unreal doenst recognize it and doesnt continue installing the patch asking for the other lib over and over. Can someone please help me solve this issue? | 23:10 |
| Powerking89670 | If I've just installed ubuntu, what is the password for root? IE. What do I use to get into the recovery console | 23:11 |
| dox | Jimdb: ok. gotta. Thanks again and bye | 23:11 |
| Danny3793 | Steve^: gotta wait 8 mins, shes downloading something, =[ | 23:11 |
| new2ubuntu | jimmey: actually no, on the computer I am on now I do. But the other computer (really old desktop) it is just bash | 23:11 |
| Steve^ | lol | 23:11 |
| Phenax | my laptop has been stuck on "configuring hardware" on installation, 94%, for about 20 minutes now | 23:11 |
| Flannel | Powerking89670: root doesn't have a password, it's locked. When you need (if you ever need) to use the recovery console, you don't need to enter a password. | 23:11 |

| mattg_ | how do i browse a network under xubuntu? | 23:12 |
| Steve^ | Danny3793, that means zelch to me | 23:12 |
| virusbytex | s | 23:12 |
| Danny3793 | Steve^: could be an MSI too, the desktop is a Acer | 23:12 |
| gerro | mattg_: as in file sharing? try samba | 23:13 |
| fevel | gerro: how can I grab the older library?? where can I find it | 23:13 |
| Jimmey | new2ubuntu, then you'll need to add an IPTables rule - try man iptables | 23:13 |
| Danny3793 | Steve^: figured you would know if they are good brands or not :P | 23:13 |
| yasper | Hi | 23:13 |
| new2ubuntu | jimmy: I used this command but it did not seem to change anything: iptables -A INPUT -p tcp -i eth0 --dport 80 --sport 1024:65535 -m state --state NEW -j ACCEPT | 23:13 |
| Danny3793 | Steve^: ima read some of their reviews, see if other people have gotten bad chips from them | 23:13 |
| gerro | fevel: browse ubuntu repository with firefox http://packages.ubuntu.com/ | 23:13 |
| Steve^ | Danny3793, eww Acer ;) | 23:13 |
| gerro | fevel: or whatever it is you use | 23:13 |
| Jimmey | new2ubuntu, try installing nmap. It will show you which ports are open on your machine | 23:13 |
| yasper | Does any one have a solution for sound driver for Dell M1710 with Gutsy Gibbon - Thanks | 23:14 |
| Danny3793 | Steve^: you dont like Acer? I think its pretty nice, fast too :P | 23:14 |
| bonkey | Problem: Installed ubuntu on all pcs in my house. works great. on my pc the screen powers off during the ubuntu loading message. then it comes back at once the login is displayed. Any ideas? | 23:14 |
| Phenax | my computer seems to be stuck on "Configuring hardware" part of installation, any suggestion? | 23:14 |
| gerro | new2ubuntu: there also some local commands you can run such as netstat and iptables | 23:14 |

| gerro | fevel: urban terror, tremulous, nexuiz, assaultcube man I <3 fps games on linux | 23:15 |
| yokomo | is there a program for linux that allows for mounting cds? | 23:15 |
| yokomo | like daemon tools? | 23:15 |
| void^ | new2ubuntu: you need to forward the port in your router. | 23:15 |
| bonkey | mount | 23:15 |
| fevel | gerro: different from software I preffer proprietary games | 23:15 |
| desertc | :-) | 23:15 |
| new2ubuntu | gerro: I think the problem is that I have an error in my iptables command, it didn't allow http traffic | 23:15 |
| yokomo | bonkey: does it emulate cd protection too? I think not | 23:15 |
| fevel | gerro: it keeps the business sharp | 23:15 |
| scguy318 | yokomo: theres hardly anything on Linux that has CD protection, is there? | 23:15 |
| scguy318 | yokomo: AcetoneISO2 does great mounting | 23:16 |
| desertc | yokomo: Use Free Software, not copy-restricted closed software. | 23:16 |
| Danny3793 | Steve^: lol, well Acer cares because the president of Acer said Vista was a POS, that shows you someone has the cahonnas to stand up to Winblows :P | 23:16 |
| gerro | fevel: actually open source games make more profit off selling fan items (custom keyboards, mice, pads, shirts etc) | 23:16 |
| kalleskaviar | yokomo, If you prefer the pointy-clicky way, i think there are some scripts you can install in Nautilus (the gnome file browser) http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2005/10/24/nautilus-script-to-mount-iso-files/ | 23:16 |

| mattg_ | what would be the address i put in to access shares on a server in xubuntu? | 23:16 |
| desertc | Danny3793: Asus has totally embraced Linux, too. | 23:17 |
| fevel | although urban terror is alright | 23:17 |
| gerro | fevel: most them for the old folks I agree (my dad still loves playing secret maryo chronicles) but there some good ones | 23:17 |
| kalleskaviar | Danny3793, well i think Sun has delivered a computer or two without windows as well. :) | 23:17 |
| yasper | Hi - please I need help as I have no sound on my dell xps m1710 after I upgraded to Gutsy Gibon | 23:17 |
| desertc | Danny3793: Their new solid-state Linux laptop will make your head a-splode. | 23:17 |
| void^ | new2ubuntu: make sure the server is listening on the correct interface (netstat -alnp), make sure iptables isn't blocking anything (iptables -L -v) | 23:17 |
| fevel | I see a bright future coming really soon with the start of quake wars doom3 and unreal 3 | 23:18 |
| gerro | yasper: back up your files and reinstall, if it don't work then most will be able to help | 23:18 |
| bqmassey | there any reason NOT to enable Multiverse? | 23:18 |

| scguy318 | bqmassey: if you dont want proprietary stuff | 23:18 |
| nbalsalobre | oi | 23:18 |
| bqmassey | scguy318: is there any reason not to want it? | 23:18 |
| Danny3793 | desertc: is that bad or good? My head has already sploded from all this lockup "THEY WONT LET ME OUT, IM LOCKED UP" Hahahha... | 23:18 |
| philo23_ | hey guys, i'm installing ubuntu gutsy gibbon on an old pc, but it keeps trying to detect a floppy disk drive which doesnt even exist, then seems to crash as its doing it, any ideas on what boot options i could use? | 23:19 |

| hikenboot | how do i get around lack of support of symlinks on fat32 partitions I need fat32 for duel booting linux and bartpe? | 23:19 |
| yasper | gerro: do you think I should wait for updates? perhaps a few weeks or revert back to Feisty? | 23:19 |
| scguy318 | bqmassey: thats about the only one I can think of | 23:19 |
| rbs-tito | Can somebody tell me the apt-get option that lets you install the dependencies required to compile a package? | 23:19 |
| kalleskaviar | new2ubuntu, are you behing some kind of broadband router that uses network translation (NAT) ? If so you need to forward port 80 to your comp (or place it in the DMZ but that kind of negates the point of NAT...) | 23:19 |
| nbalsalobre | oi | 23:19 |
| void^ | hikenboot: don't use fat32 for anything that requires symlinks, just use it as a data partition (aka, garbage dump.) | 23:19 |

| bobfany | both on the same router | 23:55 |
| scguy318 | bobfany: no | 23:55 |
| Random832 | PriitM: it's generally helpful to keep the discussion in the channel, in case someone else who didn't notice the conversation at first can add anything to help you | 23:55 |
| bobfany | how then?! | 23:55 |
| scguy318 | bobfany: scp,sftp,ftp, etc. | 23:55 |
| * bobfany feels stupid | 23:55 | |

| marx2k | kalleskaviar, do you get that issue that when youre downloading a larger binaries newsgroup's headers, it takes FOREVER? | 23:56 |
| PS_ | con-man: you could try saving off your current xorg.conf file and running sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-org | 23:56 |
| scguy318 | bobfany: oh and NFS :P | 23:56 |
| PS_ | con-man: yeah, looks ok | 23:56 |
| spanks | what's a good utility to format drives? | 23:56 |

| Pici | con-man: xserver-xorg | 23:57 |
| marx2k | kalleskaviar, how do you know what articles are available? | 23:57 |

| bobfany | spanks: gparted | 23:57 |
| scguy318 | spanks: mkfs | 23:57 |
