| j_c | ok, I have a problem I need help with. I'm running ubuntu feisty. it's installed on two 250GB HD's via lvm and raid 0. Today I installed a third drive and installed gutsy to it from the alternate CD. I've done this before (though not with gutsy) and thought I would be prompted to add the new boot point to my existing grub menu. however, that did not happen. Now my system only boots to the new drive, and even when I remove it I | 00:05 |
| j_c | get an error in grub telling me it can't find the menu. How do I configure the system to boot to the original boot point? | 00:05 |
| spanks | scguy318: i will try that...i'll get back to you. thanks =) | 00:06 |
| lomez | anyone help me? my entire system is just really laggy since ive upgrade to gutsy. i move a window and my video on the other side starts getting choppy | 00:06 |
| UbuntuDesperateU | this is the intro of the page By default Ubuntu will use the open source 'ati' or 'radeon' driver for cards that manufactured by ATI. | 00:06 |
| spanks | scguy318, how do i run fsck? | 00:06 |
| jotil | j_c: set your grub root to the original one | 00:06 |
| koshari | lomez it may be possable that tracker is caching your files | 00:06 |

| jotil | j_c: you will need to do it via the grub shell | 00:08 |
| scguy318 | spanks: fsck /dev/part | 00:08 |
| scguy318 | spanks: i would suggest doing testdisk first in case fsck seriously borks your ext3 | 00:08 |

| scguy318 | Sitherae: what WIne version? | 00:11 |
| j_c | jotil: maybe a better question would be "how do I change the MBR from one drive to anther?" I took great pains to not select the root part to be bootable when I installed gutsy, and yet it behaves as though the it's looking to the third drive for the mbr. | 00:11 |
| PS_ | Poul|Raider: have you tried disabling the apps set to load in your session one at a time to see if one of them is causing a problem? | 00:11 |

I have a lot of stuff already installed and setup on the machine, so i dont wot to loose all that. I plan to backup whole / and than install back feisty, now my question is the system going to be ok if i restore whole / backup from gutsy on fei | 00:24 |
| scguy318 | Sitherae: 0.9.47 | 00:24 |
| scguy318 | Sitherae: releases are about every two weeks | 00:24 |

| scguy318 | Sitherae: i guess you could try purging your ~/.wine, reinstall, make sure not to install any DX libraries if it asks | 00:24 |
| jotil | chr0n1c: write a program that will stream all /dev/dsp output as httd stream or audio stream and then play it from your xp box using winamp or relaplayer | 00:25 |
| scguy318 | CCB0x45: if the native drivers feil miserably, use ndiswrapper | 00:25 |
| astro76 | chetnick, if you restored whole /, you would in essence be back to gutsy, you'll probably just want to backup and restore /home and changes you made in /etc | 00:25 |
| CCB0x45 | apprently it worked in fiesty | 00:25 |
| scguy318 | jotil: or you could fiddle with sound server | 00:25 |

| Ademan | adminn: if you go to the link, under OPTIONS it lists the usage and behavior for swap -a | 00:53 |
| lee98632 | no its waht hse told me | 00:53 |
| Moduliz0r | If you tamper with any main hardware it will deactivate | 00:53 |
| aschmack | more like her PC manufacturer | 00:53 |
| Luigi | Any tips before I sudo apt-get upgrade --dist-upgrade ? | 00:53 |
| lee98632 | iwas trying to spread anyhting | 00:53 |
| adminn | ubotu !time | 00:53 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about time - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 00:53 |
| aschmack | Moduliz0r, again, untrue | 00:53 |
| Jordan_U | Luigi, Don't | 00:53 |
| Pici | lee98632: #ubuntu-offtopic or ##windows , not here. | 00:53 |
| cvance | Luigi backup your data :) | 00:53 |
| Jordan_U | Luigi, Use update-manager | 00:53 |
| Boes | Pray Luigi | 00:53 |
| Enul232 | can anyone tell me how to move my recycle bin to the desktop? | 00:54 |
| adminn | ademan: very cool try :) | 00:54 |
| Moduliz0r | If you change the motherboard, pretty much any Windows version will be unhappy | 00:54 |
| kalleskaviar | tsukasa_, you can usually do it in bios. Though MACs are supposed to be global unique. Fudging with them is bad mojo. | 00:54 |
| * AnAlien8me cries | 00:54 | |
| Luigi | cvance how long would that take? Shoudl I just tar my home directory? | 00:54 |
| lee98632 | I know that I was asking her if she wanted to try ubuntu | 00:54 |
| Ebiggs | Well, I just went to upgrade with the update manager and it went most of the way before erroring out. Now I boot up to a console. =\ | 00:54 |
| Moduliz0r | Yeah! Ubuntu!!! | 00:54 |
| lee98632 | but when she called acer they told her no | 00:54 |
| astro76 | Luigi, backups are always smart ;) | 00:54 |
| Moduliz0r | Well tell her to tell acer it's HER PC | 00:54 |
| Jordan_U | Luigi, Again, *Do not* change your sources.list and use apt-get dist-upgrade! | 00:54 |
| lee98632 | and that it woukld violate her agreement | 00:54 |
| Moduliz0r | and she can do whatever she pleases with it | 00:54 |
| Moduliz0r | She can install Ubuntu, but Acer won't give support for Ubuntu | 00:55 |
| Moduliz0r | does she have a Vista Restore disc? | 00:55 |
| aschmack | acer may not service her PC while it has linux on it because their diagnostic tools work on windows | 00:55 |
| Pici | !offtopic | 00:55 |
| ubotu | #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! | 00:55 |
| aschmack | hence why you reinstall vista | 00:55 |
| Moduliz0r | It's not offtopic, we are talking about installing Ubuntu and Acer | 00:56 |

| Chriswaterguy | don-o: forgot to mention - it's NTFS now. The partition options (new etc) are disabled. Different case? | 01:01 |
| Gnuget | Chriswaterguy, yeaha you need to partition be a ext3 or somilar (not ntfs or vfat) for you edit that partition | 01:01 |
| Jordan_U | AnAlien8me, No, we haven't been able to ;) | 01:01 |
| Gnuget | similar* | 01:01 |
| Yahooadam | mrksht - when i ping 192.168.1.11 i want it to ping 127.0.0.1 | 01:01 |

| FluxD | Hi, I am trying to blacklist the bcm43xx driver in Gutsy to use ndiswrapper but I a getting this error device (14E4:4318) present (alternate driver: bcm43xx) | 01:02 |
| Gnuget | :) | 01:02 |
| AnAlien8me | !repeat | AnAlien8me | 01:02 |
| mrksht | Yahooadam , edit the /etc/hosts file | 01:02 |

| astro76 | AnAlien8me, that's not an error really | 01:02 |
| Enul2322 | can anyone tell me how to move my recycle bin from the panel to my desktop? | 01:02 |
| Jordan_U | Flux-D, Did you at least try using bcm43xx with firmware first? | 01:03 |
| don-o | Yahooadam: if you ping 192.168.1.11, thats what you get. what are you trying to do? | 01:03 |
| AnAlien8me | when i try to open my vista drive, it asks for a password, i type it, then it says unable to mount drive | 01:03 |

| AnAlien8me | computer> double click on vista | 01:04 |
| Enul2322 | thanks | 01:04 |
| astro76 | AnAlien8me, I'm not sure what the question is besides your fdisk output | 01:04 |
| Yahooadam | don-o, basically a program im using looks up an IP from a database (which i cant change) but im SSH'ing with a tunnel, so when it says "connect to 192.168.1.11:84" - i need it to goto localhost so it goes through the tunnel | 01:04 |

| don-o | Poul|Raider: the kernel uses whatever free memory is available as cache | 01:10 |
| don-o | Poul|Raider: so if you get more memory, that will probably be used right away as cache. | 01:11 |

| astro76 | JimmyDee, I'm an askee not an asker ;) | 01:13 |
| Pelo | Jordan_U, did you try just reinstalling dpkg ? | 01:13 |
| don-o | Yahooadam: it listens to all interfaces by default | 01:13 |
| Luigi | Jordan+U that sounds bad. Oh, yes, that sounds bad. | 01:13 |
| Pelo | makuseru, try using amarok or gtkpod | 01:13 |

| Pelo | AnAlien8me, donT' ask anybody else please, restate your issue | 01:13 |
| PovAddict | is dd on /dev/cdrom enough? :) | 01:13 |

| eologolo | #pelo, jsut saw that gutsy was looking for the wireless card firmware in a wrong directory where it is | 01:14 |
| Jordan_U | JimmyDee, What is that supposed to do? | 01:14 |
| Pelo | Jordan_U, deb uses dpkg for installing try just reisntalling from synaptic | 01:14 |
| lashmoove | Luigi: here is the output http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=3624243&postcount=2 | 01:14 |

| Yahooadam | don-o - the program looks at 192.168.1.11 and says the service isnt there, so im guessing the tunnel isnt getting made from my new network interface.... | 01:14 |
| Pelo | Jordan_U, sudo apt-get install dpkg | 01:15 |
| JimmyDee | jordan_u: perhaps dpkg isnt called exactly dpkg, itll give you a list of all things dpkg | 01:15 |
| Luigi | lashmoove obviously you successfully loaded it. | 01:15 |
| Jordan_U | Pelo, I can't install ubuntu-desktop because of dependency problems that seem to be caused by the fact that apt sees no installation candidate for packages that are available | 01:15 |
| don-o | Yahooadam: you're using -L with ssh? | 01:15 |
| Yahooadam | yes don-o | 01:15 |
| crimsun | Jordan_U: did you ensure that you have a main line active? | 01:15 |
| Jordan_U | Pelo, That is what I am doing, and that is the error I get | 01:15 |
| wastrel | Jordan_U: sounds like your repos are messed | 01:15 |
| don-o | Yahooadam: the man page says [-L [bind_address:]port:host:hostport] | 01:15 |
| walter | hi, im in ubuntu 7.10 and im having problems with compiz fusion. It wont start | 01:15 |
| Jordan_U | crimsun, Yes | 01:15 |
| Pelo | Jordan_U, try a clean install then | 01:15 |
| don-o | Yahooadam: so use that bind_address :) | 01:15 |
| Yahooadam | so 192.168.1.11:port:192.168.1.11:port ? | 01:16 |
| crimsun | Jordan_U: please pastebin the output from `cat /etc/apt/sources.list` | 01:16 |
| Jordan_U | wastrel, My sources.list is fine, I've checked it many times, and apt-cache show sees the packages | 01:16 |
| eologolo | Pelo, gutsy looks for card firmware in /lib/firmware and it is not there but a /lib/firmware/2.6.22-14-generic | 01:16 |
| Pelo | walter, you might want to try asking in #compiz-fusion | 01:16 |
| don-o | Yahooadam: that might work. looks freaky though | 01:16 |
| unicycle | Ok, here's the situation. | 01:16 |
| unicycle | Installed the new ATI Driver. | 01:16 |
| Pelo | eologolo, make a symlink | 01:16 |

| lashmoove | Luigi: [vlc /dev/video1] [vlc/dev/video0] gives me no video, like it did in feisty | 01:17 |
| don-o | Yahooadam: np | 01:17 |
| Pelo | unicycle, turn off compiz , see if that helps | 01:17 |
| Luigi | What, Ubotu won't respond to self-references to myself? | 01:17 |
| eologolo | i did a sudo ln firmware ./2.6.22-14-generic/firmware thingy | 01:17 |
| unicycle | I don't have compiz. | 01:17 |
| eologolo | but is that a gutsy bug? | 01:17 |
| * Yahooadam bows before don-o :) | 01:17 | |
| Luigi | Oh, OK astro76 | 01:17 |
| Pelo | Luigi, if you want to query the bot use /msg ubotu !trigger | 01:17 |

| mehevi | hello there. I have a problem, nm-applet starts a total of three times when my xfce session begins, and I cannot figure out where it is getting called three times! I've checked ~/.config and removed all entries to it but it still starts up three times. When xfce starts it calls it before the autostart menu is parsed, that's all I know. any advice on where to look? | 01:18 |
| Yahooadam | ha ha don-o :D they should make a karma system though :D | 01:19 |

| eologolo | Pelo, what is ubuntu-bugs channel for? | 01:22 |
| eologolo | nobody answers there | 01:22 |
| kalleskaviar | mehevi, maybe try #xubuntu ? They probably knows xfce quirks better. | 01:22 |
| JimmyDee | unicycle, you need to install the restricted-manager and use that to enable it | 01:22 |
| Creed | hirak99, I have a old Dell Workstation 41 or something that has two P3 CPU's. I upgraded from 7.04 to 7.10 and now Ubuntu only see's one proc. How can i enable/make Ubuntu use both the cpu's? | 01:22 |

| mehevi | kalleskaviar thanks, wasnt aware of that channel | 01:22 |

| dr_spork | Does anyone here know something about fontconfig? | 01:23 |
| unicycle | Ok, how do I do that? | 01:23 |
| JimmyDee | unicycle, aka if you use the ati installer its jose'd | 01:23 |
| Pelo | dr_spork, better ask a specific queston | 01:23 |
| eologolo | astro76, actually i'm not even sure that is a bug or feature :P | 01:23 |

| Chriswaterguy | formating my 150 GB USB HD drive, does it matter what order I put the partitions in? I'm thinking of making an ext3 partition of 100GB for backups, FAT32 of 35GB so I can exchange files with Windows machines, and 15GB ext3 for an emergency backup copy of Ubuntu (in case my laptop won't boot). Thanks! | 01:26 |
| Creed | Pici, how do I get the generic kernel? | 01:26 |
| cosmodad | what script is called when I use suspend or hibernate via the GUI? | 01:26 |
| astro76 | unicycle, System > Administration > Restricted Drivers Manager | 01:26 |
| Pici | gravemin1: try picking a different mirror for apt, System>Administration>Software Sources | 01:26 |
| unicycle | JimmyDee, I have enabled it on that. | 01:27 |
| JimmyDee | unicycle, sudo apt-get install restricted-manager then its system>administration>restricted manager in gnome | 01:27 |
| Pici | Creed: sudo apt-get install linux-generic | 01:27 |
| unicycle | It says it's enabled. | 01:27 |
| gravemin1 | Pici: I don't think that's the problem - it never gets as far as downloading | 01:27 |
| astro76 | Chriswaterguy, if you don't have windows on that machine, you do NOT need a windows filesystem to share files with windows systems | 01:27 |
| JimmyDee | unicycle, also, are you using the server kernel? | 01:27 |
| astro76 | Chriswaterguy, you just use samba which is windows filesharing | 01:27 |
| unicycle | not that I know of, JimmyDee. | 01:27 |
| Ranbee | hi, i just upgraded my laptop and i think i've got some dodgy debian repo for opera! can someone show me the correct opera repo, please? | 01:27 |
| Pici | gravemin1: Some of the apt servers have been under heavy load due to the gutsy release, I had to change repos when I tried to upgrade | 01:28 |
| unicycle | JimmyDee, I need to go eat. I'll be back in a few minutes. | 01:28 |
| JimmyDee | unicycle, which variant of the kernel are you using? | 01:28 |
| Pici | !opera | Ranbee | 01:28 |
| ubotu | Ranbee: opera is an advanced and free (only as in price) web browser. Install it via Applications->Add/Remove..., making sure that "Show commercial applications" (dapper only) is checked. For more info on opera please see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OperaBrowser | 01:28 |

| Pici | gravemin1: ah... | 01:28 |
| gravemin1 | Pici: there's something wrong with the package manager | 01:28 |
| Creed | Thanks Pici :) | 01:28 |
| Chriswaterguy | astro76: Samba? would that mean I could take my ext3 HDD and plug it into a Windows machine? | 01:28 |
| JimmyDee | Chriswaterguy, ummm no | 01:29 |
| Pici | gravemin1: I'm not sure then. | 01:29 |
| gravemin1 | Pici: I've tried doing it the regular way too but that hangs before the download too | 01:29 |
| astro76 | Chriswaterguy, oh no, you did say usb drive, in that case you will want to use fat32 | 01:29 |
| gravemin1 | Pici: I'll keep asking around | 01:29 |
| Chriswaterguy | astro76 & JimmyDee: cool, thanks! | 01:29 |

| astro76 | gravemin1, I said alll windows machines he uses, he can determine what that includes ;) | 01:30 |
| gravemin1 | astro76: jk, that driver should come standard on all pcs :) | 01:30 |
| dark_valkyrian | i installed debian etch in a 2,8 gb disk plugged to a AMD athlon (the disk is from a pentium mmx) | 01:31 |

| astro76 | AnAlien8me, it needs it, it just uses it by default in gutsy | 01:31 |
| dark_valkyrian | what can i do? | 01:31 |
| crimsun | Jordan_U: and `dpkg -l dpkg`? | 01:31 |
| gravemin1 | hey guys, I can't upgrade to gutsy - it always hangs when checking package manager! | 01:31 |
| Etherael | anyone use mail2web exchange? | 01:32 |
| Gnuget | gravemin1, why noy? | 01:32 |
| wastrel | dark_valkyrian: check /etc/iftab | 01:32 |
| Gnuget | not? | 01:32 |
| eologolo | astro76, well it seeems it wasn't; so i did a ln in the /lib/firmware | 01:32 |
| JimmyDee | gravemin1, did you try changing all the feisty's in apt/sources.list to gutsy and sudo apt-get dist-upgrade? | 01:32 |
| Gnuget | gravemin1, edit you /etc/apt/source.list? | 01:32 |
| Gnuget | andh change all | 01:32 |
| cosmodad | how can I tweak what script/function is called when I use suspend/hibernate via the logoff/exit button? | 01:32 |
| Gnuget | to festy to gusty | 01:32 |
| AnAlien8me | ah ok, it says failed to access mountpoint, do i have to create one? | 01:32 |
| eologolo | astro76, so i fixed it so, but how to make sure it is not a bug? | 01:33 |
| astro76 | eologolo, I believe you would either have to make /lib/firmware the actual symlink, or symlink all the individual files | 01:33 |
| Gnuget | apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade | 01:33 |
| dark_valkyrian | wastrel:ok | 01:33 |
| dr_spork | Does anyone here know how I can fix a couple fonts that aren't anti-aliasing between sizes 8-11? | 01:33 |

| gravemin1 | JimmyDee: Gnuget: I've been trying to use the gui tool and the alternate cd. What's the manual way? | 01:33 |

| Jimmey | Does anyone know how I can install the new version of the GIMP (2.4) on Fiesty? | 01:33 |
| astro76 | eologolo, not sure, you could search on bugs.ubuntu.com and file one if you don't find anything | 01:33 |
| JimmyDee | gravemin1, sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list | 01:33 |
| JimmyDee | gravemin1, replace all feisty with gutsy | 01:34 |
| JimmyDee | gravemin1, sudo apt-get update | 01:34 |
| gravemin1 | JimmyDee: ah. and this is perfectly legit? | 01:34 |
| JimmyDee | gravemin1, sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 01:34 |
| astro76 | eologolo, searching ubuntuforums.org is also a good idea | 01:34 |

| gravemin1 | lol ok | 01:35 |
| Axsuul | hmm, has anyone had problems installing ubuntu? booting into live cd gives me nautilus program errors and when i click on the install icon it gives me ubiquitus program error | 01:35 |
| AnAlien8me | astro76, thnx 4 the help | 01:35 |
| Toma- | JimmyDee➔ what if he has non-offical package that cause problems? :) i wouldnt go claiming things just yet | 01:36 |
| gravemin1 | JimmyDee: should I uncomment everything in sources.list? | 01:36 |
| dark_valkyrian | wastrel: you said /etc/iftab? i dont seem to have that file | 01:36 |
| JimmyDee | !works for me | 01:36 |
| ubotu | Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should. Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability. | 01:36 |
| hwilde | when I try to boot from the LiveCD, it drops to initramfs shell and says "ata5.00: failed to set xfermode (err_mask=0x40). then it says "ata5.00: revalidation failed (errno=-5)" ata5 does not exist on my system so why is it looking for this? | 01:37 |
| gravemin1 | Toma: is it possible to find out what package is the problem? | 01:37 |
| theacolyte | text based bittorrent? | 01:37 |
| dr_spork | Does anyone know where I could go for help with a fontconfig problem? | 01:37 |
| hwilde | !fonts | dr_spork | 01:37 |
| ubotu | dr_spork: Font installation basics here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FontInstallHowto - No fonts in Flash? Install "msttcorefonts" (from !Multiverse), "gsfonts", and "gsfonts-x11". No fonts in MPlayer? see !MPlayer | 01:37 |
| wastrel | dark_valkyrian: i thought it might be the prob because the mac address of your network cards can be stored there, you moved the drive so you have different network cards | 01:37 |
| Toma- | gravemin1➔ trying to do anything with apt-get will tell you whats broken. to fix it, its uually a case of running "sudo apt-get -f install" to fix things | 01:37 |
| KingArthur- | hey | 01:37 |
| astro76 | hwilde, I think it's ata and 5.00, ata is the hard drive (ide) or optical drive interface | 01:38 |
| dr_spork | !fonts | 01:38 |
| FluxD | I have a ndiswrapper question I did ndiswrapper -m but its not loading on login | 01:38 |
| dark_valkyrian | wastrel: so what can i do? unplug the nics and plug them again? | 01:38 |
| hwilde | astro76, what does this mean. it should still boot to the livecd | 01:38 |
| smallfoot- | why i dont want "vant Window Navigator" and "Kiba dock" in Ubuntu Package Manager when i searcheD? | 01:38 |
| gravemin1 | Toma: ok, apt-get runs smoothly, so I guess there's nothing wrong with packages | 01:38 |
| KingArthur- | how can i access or fix my xp boot on the ubuntu live cd? | 01:38 |
| KingArthur- | id really appreciate it if anybody could help me | 01:38 |
| Toma- | gravemin1➔ can you copy and paste the problem to pastebin? | 01:38 |
| psyk0sis | KingArthur: what do you mean fix xp boot? | 01:38 |
| astro76 | hwilde, not sure but it's an error that's preventing booting | 01:38 |
| FluxD | KingArthur-: u need windows cd to get ur mbr back | 01:39 |
| KingArthur- | crap | 01:39 |
| eologolo | astro76, since there is not a single way to describe a bug... i tried to find same or similar and went nuts... | 01:39 |
| psyk0sis | O that yea | 01:39 |
| blackflare2 | hi | 01:39 |
| laoda796 | join channel #ubuntu-cn | 01:39 |
| KingArthur- | theres no way i can do it in ubuntu? | 01:39 |
| Evanlec | !grub | KingArthur- | 01:39 |
| ubotu | KingArthur-: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto | 01:39 |
| gravemin1 | Toma: it's not in the terminal, so no | 01:39 |
| FluxD | I have a ndiswrapper question I did ndiswrapper -m but its not loading on login | 01:39 |
| wastrel | dark_valkyrian: do you see them in lspci? are they active in the BIOS? what kernel modules support them? maybe you just need to load the proper drivers | 01:39 |
| jrattner1 | Question: Has anyone located a mail-notification package with SSL support yet? | 01:39 |
| dr_spork | Does anyone know where I should go for help configuring the XML of fontconfig so that it turns on anti-aliasing for two fonts with problems at certain sizes? | 01:39 |
| blackflare2 | I just installed ubuntu on my laptop, and im wondering if I can get it to do something it used to in XP. BeforE I could hold middle click and scroll by moving up and down on the touchpad | 01:39 |
| Toma- | KingArthur-➔ you can mount your windows xp drive, but that wont help anything | 01:39 |
| gravemin1 | Toma: I run the update manager or the alternate cd way, and the gui tool hangs near the very beginning | 01:39 |
| astro76 | KingArthur-, I believe the super grub disk can restore windows mbr... http://supergrub.forjamari.linex.org/ | 01:40 |
| GenNMX | Anyone here familiar with mdadm/linuxraid? I just converted over my raid1s to raid10s and now boot takes forever. However, upon doing a rescue boot, I see the arrays are still syncing...could that be it? Are they trying to force themselves to sync completely before finishing boot? | 01:40 |
| blackflare2 | I checked in mouse settings but it was kind of sparce | 01:40 |
| KingArthur- | thank you astro76 | 01:40 |
| wastrel | jrattner1: i use thunderbird/claws-mail plugins | 01:40 |
| dark_valkyrian | wastrel: yeah i can see them both with lspci | 01:40 |
| psyk0sis | blackflare2: you need to install the mouseemu package | 01:40 |
| === Riotblade is now known as Riot|AFK | ||
| jrattner1 | wastrel, whats that? | 01:40 |
| blackflare2 | thanks | 01:40 |
| KingArthur- | its really annoying because i deleted ubuntu and now no boot up screen comes up for xp | 01:40 |
| Pici | !away > Riot|AFK (Please see the private messsage from ubotu) | 01:40 |
| Wgg | Hi all, I've upgraded to Gutsy from Feisty and I can no longer mount my usb drives - they don't even show up in /dev anymore. Can anyone help? | 01:40 |
| astro76 | KingArthur-, well that's expected ;) | 01:40 |
| FluxD | KingArthur-: when u delete ubuntu grub doesnt go away | 01:40 |
| hwilde | !fixmbr | KingArthur- | 01:40 |
| ubotu | KingArthur-: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto | 01:40 |
| gravemin1 | Toma, JimmyDee: I have to restart, cause the failed gui thing is locking out apt | 01:40 |
| wastrel | jrattner1: plugins within the thunderbird client and the claws-mail client (2 separate) | 01:41 |
| KingArthur- | and when i use the xp boot disc my wireless keyboards f8 doesnt work | 01:41 |
| KingArthur- | so i cant fix it | 01:41 |
| Toma- | KingArthur-➔ throw your windows xp disk in and try to get to some sort of recovery console and run "fixmbr" | 01:41 |
| gravemin1 | Wgg: sudo apt-get uninstall emvs | 01:41 |
| psyk0sis | KingArthur - you might try to reinstall Ubuntu | 01:41 |
| gravemin1 | Wgg: I think | 01:41 |
| unicycle | JimmyDee, I'm back. Do you have any more ideas? | 01:41 |
| Sitherae | Does anyone have Team Fortress 2 running with Wine? | 01:41 |
| jrattner1 | wastrel, and it works like mail-notification? | 01:41 |
| KingArthur- | yeah thats what i was thinking psykosis lol | 01:41 |
| KingArthur- | it only takes up 10 gigs anyways | 01:41 |
| Toma- | Sitherae➔ i wish :) | 01:41 |
| FluxD | I have a ndiswrapper question I did ndiswrapper -m but its not loading on login | 01:41 |
| stoodleysnow | Yuck! Not Microsoft! | 01:41 |
| wastrel | jrattner1: in the notification area? yes | 01:41 |
| JimmyDee | unicycle, 15 yards back, punt | 01:41 |
| Wgg | gravemin1: thanks, I'll try that now | 01:41 |
| wastrel | jrattner1: do you use thunderbird or claws-mail? | 01:41 |
| gravemin1 | Wgg: wait | 01:42 |
| jrattner1 | wastrel, I use thunderbird | 01:42 |
| gravemin1 | Wgg: let me find the website | 01:42 |
| KingArthur- | well id use ubuntu but its game performance is seriously lacking | 01:42 |
| Sitherae | Toma: I supposed you are getting the same problem as me.. Closes at the the loading screen? | 01:42 |
| astro76 | KingArthur-, you said you deleted Ubuntu, I assumed you wanted to keep it that way | 01:42 |
| wastrel | yeah that one is hrm | 01:42 |
| stoodleysnow | thunderbird! | 01:42 |
| psyk0sis | KingArthur: i did the same thing when i first got my laptop | 01:42 |
| jrattner1 | wastrel, how do i get it in the tray? | 01:42 |
| Wgg | gravemin1: ok | 01:42 |
| unicycle | JimmyDee, nice. | 01:42 |
| drew | anyone get very slow boot-up after selecting ubuntu in grub? sits there for 5 minutes for me... | 01:42 |
| hwilde | KingArthur-, you need to fix your partitions. set the windows partition as active and bootable. you might have to fix mbr as well. | 01:42 |
| JimmyDee | unicycle, kidding | 01:42 |
| KingArthur- | im sure most people who use linux dont even game | 01:42 |
| Toma- | Sitherae➔ no, i dont own TF2 yet :( have you checked out the TF2 wine page on appdb? | 01:42 |
| unicycle | JimmyDee, of course. | 01:42 |
| unicycle | JimmyDee, I was totally typing your idea in the Terminal, though. | 01:42 |
| Sitherae | Toma: Nope sure haven't. | 01:42 |
| FluxD | KingArthur-: cedega or wine :) | 01:42 |
| gravemin1 | Wgg: http://codepoets.co.uk/upgrade-ubuntu-gutsy-emvs-and-udevd-100-cpu-usage-aka-udevd-going-nuts | 01:43 |
| KingArthur- | ive heard of wine | 01:43 |
| srini_ | hi | 01:43 |
| psyk0sis | drew: mine hung for a while until a turned off my wireless card on my laptop | 01:43 |
| KingArthur- | but not codega | 01:43 |
| sirjoebob | hello all | 01:43 |
| Sitherae | Toma: Forgot about that thanks | 01:43 |
| Toma- | Sitherae➔ just a moment | 01:43 |
| KingArthur- | ill have to check that out :> | 01:43 |
| gravemin1 | Wgg: that should fix it | 01:43 |
| Toma- | KingArthur-➔ youre sadly mistaken | 01:43 |
| hwilde | !cedega | KingArthur- | 01:43 |
| ubotu | KingArthur-: cedega is a project based on WINE, aimed at running Windows games on Linux. For more info, see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/Cedega | 01:43 |
| FluxD | KingArthur-: cedega is not free though | 01:43 |
| JimmyDee | unicycle, ok I'm multitasking, what were we doing again? | 01:43 |
| drew | psyk0sis: ill try that, thx | 01:43 |
| Wgg | gravemin1: thanks very much! | 01:43 |
| srini_ | i installed firefox mp3 plugin, but it is not playing the songs | 01:43 |
| gravemin1 | Wgg: you're welcome! I had the same problem, just passing along the info | 01:43 |
| JimmyDee | unicycle, oh ati driver | 01:43 |
| jrattner1 | wastrel, ? | 01:43 |
| sirjoebob | i have installed AWN in ubuntu Gutsy and it is pushing my windows and wont let them be in full screen? anyone else have this problem/know how to fix it? | 01:43 |
| KingArthur- | ubuntu runs my internet and files faster | 01:44 |
| unicycle | JimmyDee, I installed the new ATI driver via the GUI installer, enabled it in the restricted manager, and it gives me a black window with anything 3D | 01:44 |
| KingArthur- | so it might be worth it | 01:44 |
| psyk0sis | drew: i think it tries to configure your wireless and give you IP and all that before boot. and if you have security it can't unlock the keyring | 01:44 |
| wastrel | jrattner1: i don't have ubuntu here, or i could check. you have to download the plugin but i don't know where, it's not in the repos afaik | 01:44 |
| stoodleysnow | quit: "not sure why I'm here" | 01:44 |
| deneme_ | I installed ubuntu-desktop to server edition of ubuntu now how can start the ubuntu-desktop? | 01:44 |
| jrattner1 | wastrel, ok....thanks | 01:44 |
| stoodleysnow | ok, that didn't work | 01:44 |
| Toma- | Sitherae➔ http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=9207 | 01:44 |
| unicycle | JimmyDee, I have an ATI Radeon X1600 512MB AGP, by the way. | 01:44 |
| freeman163 | god, im a nerd. i saw the partial headline "outlook improves as fire..." and i automatically thougfht "what do microsoft and mozilla have in common?" | 01:44 |
| dr_spork | So I'm going to assume that no one knows anything about fontconfig and antialiasing? | 01:44 |
| wastrel | but it's really good | 01:44 |
| crimsun | dr_spork: more specifically? | 01:45 |
| Sitherae | Toma: Ty | 01:45 |
| JimmyDee | guys, could someone give me a quick refresher on purging a package? | 01:45 |
| unicycle | freeman163, that's great. | 01:45 |
| Toma- | Sitherae➔ np. | 01:45 |
| stoodleysnow | thingy. | 01:45 |
| freeman163 | heh. darn california forest fires. | 01:45 |
| gore_ | gtk needs an overhaul | 01:45 |
| gore_ | looks so ugly | 01:45 |
| wastrel | jrattner1: hah found it http://moztraybiff.mozdev.org/releases.html | 01:45 |
| deneme_ | I installed ubuntu-desktop to server edition of ubuntu now how can start the ubuntu-desktop? | 01:45 |
| Pici | JimmyDee: sudo apt-get remove --purge package OR aptitude purge package | 01:45 |
| Toma- | JimmyDee➔ apt-get remove --purge package | 01:45 |
| JimmyDee | stoodleysnow, thingy, thats a technical term | 01:45 |
| dr_spork | crimsun, I'm looking to turn on anti-aliasing for two fonts that have it automatically disabled between sizes 8-11 for some reason. | 01:45 |
| unicycle | JimmyDee, any ideas? | 01:45 |
| wastrel | gtk2 is purty you want ugly use gtk1 | 01:45 |
| KingArthur- | ubuntus xchat is also way better than the windows version | 01:45 |
| KingArthur- | i wonder why that is | 01:45 |
| hwilde | JimmyDee, apt-get remove --purge | 01:45 |
| KingArthur- | lots more features | 01:45 |
| mrksht | JimmyDee it removes config files and packages | 01:45 |
| stoodleysnow | so it is O_O | 01:45 |
| gore_ | wastrel: how do I check which I have installed | 01:46 |
| JimmyDee | unicycle, sudo apt-get remove --purge xserver-fglrx | 01:46 |
| unicycle | JimmyDee, then what? | 01:46 |
| Luigi | I have an (Intel Core 2 Duo @1.8 GHz per core), and I have it running the i386 version of Ubuntu, and was wondering what 64-bit options are available. | 01:46 |
| wastrel | you have both | 01:46 |
| JimmyDee | unicycle, then goto restricted-manager and enable it | 01:46 |
| Etherael | what's the best bet for a password manager that can synchronise it's database with a windows mobile device? | 01:46 |
| unicycle | I have restricted manager enabled. | 01:46 |
| JimmyDee | unicycle, sudo apt-get remove --purge xserver-fglrx | 01:46 |
| JimmyDee | unicycle, then goto restricted-manager and enable it | 01:46 |
| jrattner1 | wastrel, thanks ill give it a go | 01:46 |
| Toma- | Luigi➔ how much ram do you have? | 01:46 |
| dark_valkyrian | wastrel: r u there? | 01:46 |
| Evanlec | Luigi, u can use the 64-bit version of ubuntu | 01:46 |
| GenNMX | Etherael: Keypass | 01:46 |
| gravemind | alright, trying it now | 01:46 |
| Luigi | Toma- 1G | 01:46 |
| unicycle | OK, will try. | 01:46 |
| Rabiddog | If you plug in 2 usb storage devices, shoudl they both be recognized by ubuntu? | 01:46 |
| stoodleysnow | I run Ubuntu 64bit on my 2.13 GHz Core 2 Duo no prob | 01:46 |
| deneme_ | JimmyDee ,I installed ubuntu-desktop to server edition of ubuntu now how can start the ubuntu-desktop? | 01:46 |
| shadylookin | does anyone know if the new ati drivers will work is my Radeon Xpress 200 or know of a list where i can find out? | 01:47 |
| Toma- | Luigi➔ and are you going to be alot of encoding in video formats? | 01:47 |
| Etherael | GenNMX: http://keepassx.sourceforge.net that one? | 01:47 |
| astro76 | Rabiddog, yes | 01:47 |
| shadylookin | on my* | 01:47 |
| wastrel | dark_valkyrian: yeah did you find the drivers you need? | 01:47 |
| Rabiddog | ty | 01:47 |
| Luigi | Toma- viewing or encoding? | 01:47 |
| gravemind | JimmyDee: sorry, could you post those things again? I already changed the sources.list | 01:47 |
| Toma- | Luigi➔ encoding | 01:47 |
| unicycle | JimmyDee, couldn't find xserver-fglrx package. | 01:47 |
| JimmyDee | unicycle, crap what is that package called | 01:47 |
| kylecasey | does anyone know where i should go for games /problems loading games? | 01:47 |
| crimsun | dr_spork: which two? | 01:47 |
| hwilde | when I boot into recovery mode, it stalls on ata5, which is not connected to my motherboard. "ata5.01: failed to IDENTIFY (I/O error, err_mask 0x40" "ata5.00: revalidation failed (errno=-5)" "ata5.00: disabled" "ata5: failed to recover some devices, retrying in 5secs" | 01:47 |
| unicycle | JimmyDee, I dunno. | 01:48 |
| dark_valkyrian | i have no way to copy the drivers to the server | 01:48 |
| Evanlec | kylecasey, linuxgamers.net ? | 01:48 |
| unicycle | JimmyDee, by the way, what does that do? | 01:48 |
| deneme_ | JimmyDee ,I installed ubuntu-desktop to server edition of ubuntu now how can start the ubuntu-desktop? | 01:48 |
| Luigi | Toma- if you mean editing the occasional video, I plan on that, but if you mean more than one every like 2 months, then no. | 01:48 |
| JimmyDee | deneme_, server is a kernel variant, ubuntu-desktop is a metapackage | 01:48 |
| stoodleysnow | ee, this is too confusing for 1:47 am:-/ nighty night. | 01:48 |
| dark_valkyrian | wastrel: i have no way to copy the drivers to the server | 01:48 |
| gravemind | kylecasey: you'll brobably have the best luck contacting the developers | 01:48 |
| JimmyDee | deneme_, sudo gdm | 01:48 |
| dr_spork | crimsun, AR PL SimHeiSun between 8-11, and Kochi Gothic between 8-11 | 01:48 |
| Toma- | Luigi➔ ahh well theres no need to run 64bit. | 01:48 |
| unicycle | JimmyDee, is it xserver-xorg? | 01:48 |
| thedefender | hey, anyone know why after i installed the new FGLRX driver libmesa is still trying to do the directrendering | 01:48 |
| Rabiddog | how do I check usb speed on a port that a usb storage is mounted on? | 01:48 |
| Evanlec | Toma-, but there's also no real reason not to run it | 01:48 |
| gravemind | JimmyDee: sudo apt-get upgrade or sudo apt-get dist-upgrade? | 01:48 |
| deneme_ | JimmyDee, but my harddisk now full | 01:48 |
| Rabiddog | tomake sure its working in usb 2.0 mode | 01:48 |
| thedefender | drive is working but can't figure out why opernsource is still doing this | 01:49 |
| Evanlec | Luigi, there's no reason not to run it in my opinion | 01:49 |
| wastrel | dark_valkyrian: you need to figure out what kernel module supports the hardware you're using. then load the module | 01:49 |
| kylecasey | evanlec and gravemind i checked around before and most forums didnt have any answers | 01:49 |
| Toma- | Evanlec➔ true. its alot easier simply going with the -386 flow tho :) | 01:49 |
| FluxD | I have a ndiswrapper question I did ndiswrapper -m but its not loading on login | 01:49 |
| hwilde | What does this mean on boot: ALERT! /dev/disk/by-uuid/a241068a-... does not exist. Dropping to a shell! | 01:49 |
| kylecasey | so i was wondering if there is a chatroom | 01:49 |
| dark_valkyrian | wastrel: i see, just googling? | 01:49 |
| JimmyDee | gravemind, sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 01:49 |
| crimsun | dr_spork: have you forcibly enabled it manually? | 01:49 |
| d4rkmonkey | hwilde when do you get that? | 01:49 |
| deneme_ | i can't mount other harddisk to | 01:49 |
| gravemind | JimmyDee: thanks! | 01:49 |
| unicycle | JimmyDee, is the server you' | 01:49 |
| Rabiddog | kylecasey, huh.... | 01:49 |
| wolf_ | does anyone knows me a mario-like game? | 01:49 |
| unicycle | you | 01:49 |
| unicycle | sorry.... | 01:49 |
| dark_valkyrian | wastrel: once i find them i load the modules with modprobe right? | 01:49 |
| JimmyDee | unicycle, no | 01:49 |
| wastrel | dark_valkyrian: there's probably a better way but yeah :] | 01:49 |
| Rabiddog | Wolf23, www.happypenguin.org | 01:49 |
| gravemind | wolf_: have you tried supertux? | 01:49 |
| wastrel | yes modprobe but that doesn't last between boot | 01:49 |
| Evanlec | Toma-, yea, and thats why 64-bit is still lagging behind because everyone has that attitude about it, but its really quite fine these days | 01:49 |
| unicycle | JimmyDee, ok. | 01:49 |
| Luigi | ween i386 and x86-64 Ubuntu? | 01:50 |
| crimsun | dr_spork: cf. /etc/fonts/conf.d/20-unhint-small-vera.conf to get an idea of the stanzas you need to base your "enable" on | 01:50 |
| unicycle | JimmyDee, so no more ideas? | 01:50 |
| dr_spork | crimsun, I've tried changing every number in the fontconfig files I can think to change, but nothing's working like it did in Fiesty, and I can't figure out why | 01:50 |
| wolf_ | drabiddog thanks | 01:50 |
| Rabiddog | SUERTUX Rokz | 01:50 |
| wastrel | you'll want to add them to /etc/modules to load them on boot dark_valkyrian | 01:50 |
| Luigi | Woops | 01:50 |
| hwilde | d4rkmonkey, during boot from hd in recovery mode (and normal mode). it says check root= bootarg. I guess I have to replace the uuid with /dev something | 01:50 |
| JimmyDee | unicycle, one sec | 01:50 |
| dxdt | wolf_: Supertux. Could not be more of a mario clone sudo aptitude install supertux | 01:50 |
| ir0nfusion | hey guys, how well is ubuntu 7.10 with flash player, java, ect? | 01:50 |
| wolf_ | thanks | 01:50 |
| gravemind | kylecasey: there might be an irc channel, but go to the developer's website and look for their email | 01:50 |
| Evanlec | ir0nfusion, its fine | 01:50 |
| Luigi | Is there any noticeable difference between x86-64 and i386 Ubuntu? | 01:50 |
| Rabiddog | kylecasey, what are tu talking about or asking? | 01:50 |
| dxdt | wolf_: Seriously, instead of goombas there are snowballs and instead of Mario you're a penguin | 01:50 |
| thedefender | ironfusion: java ok, flash,.... ok | 01:50 |
| FluxD | wastrel: does that alos apply for ndiswrapper? | 01:50 |
| dark_valkyrian | wastrel: cool thanks a lot for your help :D | 01:50 |
| crimsun | dr_spork: are you sure it's not the lcdfilter? | 01:50 |
| wolf_ | lol:P sound fun | 01:50 |
| Rabiddog | Luigi, stick with 32 bit, 64 bit drivers on both WINDOWS and linux are not fully developed | 01:51 |
| thedefender | hey, anyone know why after i installed the new FGLRX driver libmesa is still trying to do the directrendering | 01:51 |
| kylecasey | well rabiddog i have hl2 which used to work on ubuntu and i just downloaded regnum online | 01:51 |
| crimsun | dr_spork: i.e., /etc/fonts/conf.d/53-monospace-lcd-filter.conf | 01:51 |
| wastrel | FluxD: i've never worked with ndiswrapper, no idea | 01:51 |
| Evanlec | Luigi, there's about a 5% performance improvement overall, and you'll get larger improvements depending on software | 01:51 |
| d4rkmonkey | hwilde can you access your hard drive at all? I'm not 100% sure what tht error is... | 01:51 |
| kylecasey | and neither work as of right now | 01:51 |
| deneme_ | JimmyDee, there is another way to start ubuntu-desktop | 01:51 |
| deneme_ | ? | 01:51 |
| Toma- | Evanlec➔ no, its lagging because theres no software that really utilises it. mplayer is the only one iirc. also, you only get a boost if you have >4gb of ram | 01:51 |
| dr_spork | crimsun, it could be, does that generally affect asian fonts between 8-11pts? | 01:51 |
| hwilde | d4rkmonkey, how can I test from initramfs... there are limited commands here | 01:51 |
| unicycle | JimmyDee, ok. | 01:51 |
| Luigi | Evanlec : Thanks | 01:51 |
| dxdt | Luigi: no. I'm using AMD64 for the first time and although the speed seems a little better in places, it isn't so noticeable. There is no reason not to run 64 though right now. Don't believe those scary people who tell you you can't get software. I haven't found a program yet I can't run. | 01:51 |
| Evanlec | Rabiddog, thats not true, 64-bit drivers on linux work fine | 01:51 |
| JimmyDee | deneme_, perhaps sudo startx | 01:51 |
| Rabiddog | kylecasey, oh for those games | 01:51 |
| astro76 | deneme_, sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start | 01:51 |
| kylecasey | yeah | 01:51 |
| unicycle | JimmyDee, thanks for all your help, btw. | 01:51 |
| JimmyDee | unicycle, one sec | 01:51 |
| ir0nfusion | Evanlec: I started when ubuntu 6 was out and it wasnt so good, I have been with kde based pclinuxos for months and now I am fed up with it, kde hates my hp pavilion dv6449us's hardware | 01:51 |
| FluxD | I have a ndiswrapper question I did ndiswrapper -m but its not loading automatically | 01:51 |
| Evanlec | Toma-, thats incorrect, there's a lot of 64bit software | 01:51 |
| Zippy2 | wine doesnt work in amd64 tho | 01:51 |
| ir0nfusion | and locks me up sometimes | 01:51 |
| gravemind | zippy2: liah! | 01:51 |
| Rabiddog | Evanlec, JAVA and flash , two major internet compoents are still not ready | 01:51 |
| Zippy2 | it does? | 01:52 |
| deneme_ | thanks astro76 and JimmyDee | 01:52 |
| Zippy2 | it told me it doesnt | 01:52 |
| JimmyDee | unicycle, its sudo apt-get remove --purge xorg-driver-fglrx | 01:52 |
| ir0nfusion | and this new version of ubuntu looks great. | 01:52 |
| crimsun | dr_spork: I don't know offhand; try moving that file somewhere besides /etc/fonts/conf.d and forcibly restarting your display manager. | 01:52 |
| Evanlec | Rabiddog, actually its just java now, flash is all set | 01:52 |
| gravemind | zippy2: when did you check? there's been a repo out for a while now | 01:52 |
| Toma- | Evanlec➔ still, you need more than 4 gb or ram to make use of it | 01:52 |
| eboyjr | I have Gutsy, and I don't see many differences, except for the wallpapers ( which I love the dark one that could look like cracked leather or desert ground! ). What _is_ different? | 01:52 |
| d4rkmonkey | hwilde I'm sorry, I actually ahve no idea... isn't there a help command that displays all the other commands or something like that? If so, I would suggest looking for something like ls and just seeing what you could find... | 01:52 |
| Rabiddog | Evanlec, lmao, I still haven't gotten flash working on my linux box | 01:52 |
| hwilde | d4rkmonkey, it suggests cat /proc/cmdline and cat /proc/devices | 01:52 |
| shadylookin | does anyone know if the new ati drivers just released support the xpress 200 card? | 01:52 |
| dr_spork | crimsun, I'll give that a try, thanks | 01:52 |
| wastrel | eboyjr: new versions of stuff | 01:52 |
| Rabiddog | Rabiddog, I've tried everything | 01:52 |
| jrattner1 | wastrel, thats a weak alternative but I appreciate the suggestion | 01:52 |
| unicycle | JimmyDee, ok, will try. | 01:52 |
| Evanlec | Toma-, not true, it only means that 32-bit cant utilize more than 4gb | 01:52 |
| gravemind | eboyjr: network-manager is better | 01:52 |
| giampiero_ | join #ubuntu-it | 01:52 |
| wastrel | weak! heh that's what i use. | 01:53 |
| Evanlec | Toma-, but there are many other differences fundamentally | 01:53 |
| * Toma- gives up and walks off | 01:53 | |
| * Rabiddog is dead set against 64 bit as a stable platform for a nother year | 01:53 | |
| crdlb | shadylookin, yes however I'd recommend waiting for the next release of fglrx if you're going to attempt to upgrade | 01:53 |
| wastrel | perhaps i don't know the true joy of whatever you are used to ;] | 01:53 |
| crdlb | there are a lot of issues with the current version | 01:53 |
| JimmyDee | deneme_, did you get there? | 01:53 |
| gravemind | rabiddog: why? I use it it's fine | 01:53 |
| d4rkmonkey | hwilde may I ask why you're booting into recovery mode? I have no idea how to help right now, so I'm just wondering if I could be anymore helpful.. I'm not an expert or anything... | 01:53 |
| hwilde | d4rkmonkey, because it doesn't boot in normal mode duh :) | 01:53 |
| eboyjr | gravemind, Haha, I don't think so... When I shut down Ubuntu, it gives off an error about NetworkManager... I will pastebin it | 01:53 |
| * Evanlec dislikes Rabiddog 's attitude because it only adds to the delay of 64bit adoption | 01:53 | |
| eboyjr | !pastebin >me | 01:53 |
| unicycle | JimmyDee, ok, now how do I enable it? | 01:53 |
| Rabiddog | gravemind, its too much effort to get everything working and not even cedega or crossover work with it | 01:53 |
| gravemind | eboyjr: lol ok | 01:54 |
| d4rkmonkey | hwilde lol, any specific problems while booting into normal mode? | 01:54 |
| JimmyDee | unicycle, system? | 01:54 |
| Rabiddog | Evanlec, not a chance | 01:54 |
| Wgg | gravemind: Hi again, I followed the instructions for removing evms and I still don't see my usb drives in /dev They were /dev/sdb and /dev/sbc under feisty, could it be they're under a different name? How can I know whether or not they are being detected? (they are not mounting automatically, not showing in the desktop or in mtab) | 01:54 |
| gravemind | rabiddog: just don't use cedega or crossover, their not free | 01:54 |
| gylrdfokker | how do i remove a sym link? | 01:54 |
| Evanlec | not a chance of what? | 01:54 |
| unicycle | It is enabled in the restricted manager thingie, JimmyDee. | 01:54 |
| JimmyDee | system>administration>restricted managre | 01:54 |
| traiani | gylrdfokker: with rm | 01:54 |
| gravemind | Wgg: you might also need to remove mdadm | 01:54 |
| astro76 | gylrdfokker, same as a file | 01:54 |
| hwilde | d4rkmonkey, yeah it cannot find that uuid same error: ALERT! /dev/disk/by-uuid/a241068a-... does not exist. Dropping to a shell! | 01:54 |
| Rabiddog | gravemind, so just cause u doesn't use it doesn't mean it don't need to work | 01:54 |
| JimmyDee | disable and re enable it | 01:54 |
| Wgg | gravemind: Ok, I'll try that, thanks | 01:54 |
| hwilde | why does grub reference UUIDs anyways ?? | 01:54 |
| kyleBAKED | is there a way to customize the appearance of xterm? I've tried creating an .Xresources file, but it doesn't change anything | 01:54 |
| Evanlec | Rabiddog, actually it was virtually no effort to get everything working for me... | 01:54 |
| unicycle | JimmyDee, it is enabled in Restricted Driver Manager. | 01:54 |
| FluxD | I have a ndiswrapper question I did ndiswrapper -m but its not loading automatically | 01:54 |
| Rabiddog | Evanlec, not for the average windows user | 01:55 |
| Shpoo1 | Hello room. What's the easiest way to setup a web server for local web development? I only need PHP and SQL support, no Ruby or anything special. | 01:55 |
| JimmyDee | unicycle, disable and reenable it | 01:55 |
| traiani | Is there a known problem with udev after upgrading to 7.10? | 01:55 |
| Rabiddog | how do I check usb speed on a port that a usb storage is mounted on? | 01:55 |
| unicycle | JimmyDee, Restart in between? | 01:55 |
| d4rkmonkey | hwilde no idea what to do... Maybe boot off of a live CD and see what you can do from there instead of using recovery mode? | 01:55 |
| gylrdfokker | traiani: im not sure where the symlink is located, how can i find it? | 01:55 |
| gravemind | Rabiddog: that's cedega and crossover's problem. if you use them, then at least you have a good reason for not using 64. but it is perfectly stable | 01:55 |
| JimmyDee | unicycle, shouldnt need to, its not windows | 01:55 |
| Evanlec | Rabiddog, any 64-bit incompatibility can be solved by simply running 32-bit software, its backward compatible | 01:55 |
| unicycle | JimmyDee, also, will it use the latest driver? | 01:55 |
| Dyus | 64bit os's can run 32bit aps anyway, right? | 01:55 |
| wastrel | traiani: usbfs is disabled by default in 7.10 | 01:55 |
| hwilde | d4rkmonkey, when I try to boot from the LiveCD, it drops to initramfs shell and says "ata5.00: failed to set xfermode (err_mask=0x40). then it says "ata5.00: revalidation failed (errno=-5)" ata5 does not exist on my system so why is it looking for this? | 01:55 |
| astro76 | Shpoo1, install ubuntu server and there's an option to install a LAMP setup | 01:55 |
| JimmyDee | unicycle, this should be true | 01:55 |
| Evanlec | Dyus, correct | 01:55 |
| traiani | gylrdfokker: wait, what? You want to delete a symlink that you don't know the location of? | 01:56 |
| Rabiddog | gravemind, theres a bunch of 32 bit software in linux not yet ported to 64 bit afaik | 01:56 |
| unicycle | ok, will try, JimmyDee. | 01:56 |
| technel | I had a program using /dev/dsp for audio and it crashed. Now it says /dev/dsp is in use. How do I fix this w/o restart? Note I already "kill"ed the program... | 01:56 |
| hwilde | Is it possible to boot from serial ata ? | 01:56 |
| Rabiddog | hwilde, of course | 01:56 |
| traiani | wastrel: would that cause my sysload to stay above 3.0 and all kinds of other problems after logging in? | 01:56 |
| gravemind | rabiddog: most opensource software is for both now | 01:56 |
| unicycle | JimmyDee, it requires restart. Will return. | 01:56 |
| Shpoo1 | astro76: so I can just apt-get ubuntu server from the repos, right? | 01:56 |
| Evanlec | Rabiddog, yes but that 32-bit software can be run on 64-bit ubuntu | 01:56 |
| JimmyDee | unicycle, rock on | 01:56 |
| Evanlec | Rabiddog, in 32-bit mode.. | 01:56 |
| astro76 | Shpoo1, no you are already running ubuntu desktop? | 01:56 |
| Rabiddog | Evanlec, not easily for a windows user | 01:56 |
| d4rkmonkey | hwilde I think so... I'm starting to get confused now... | 01:56 |
| Shpoo1 | yeah | 01:56 |
| wastrel | traiani: that i doubt. couldn't say 100% tho | 01:56 |
| bjb1959 | Gutsy overwrites my resolv.conf file after I add my nameservers and both routers ip's it resets it to a single router and 1 nameserver and I have to manually add them in to get internet again. how do I keep the settings? | 01:56 |
| astro76 | !lamp | Shpoo1 | 01:56 |
| ubotu | Shpoo1: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) | 01:56 |
| gylrdfokker | traiani: i guess i was already in the same folder i do know what folder its in, just not the proper code to remove it | 01:57 |
| mrksht | FluxD can you get it running manually? | 01:57 |
| FluxD | mrksht: yup | 01:57 |
| Shpoo1 | astro76: thanks, you've been a big help. | 01:57 |
| Shpoo1 | for a small issue lol | 01:57 |
| jojoman02 | can anyone help me setup wireless on my core2duo 2nd gen macbook? | 01:57 |
| JimmyDee | you've all been fun, I'm going to see a real girl in the real world | 01:57 |
| coulamac | Has anyone configured the display on an Inspiron 1420n in Gutsy? | 01:58 |
| FluxD | mrksht: the alias said wlan0 even though mine is eth1 I even changed that but still no luck | 01:58 |
| bjb1959 | Gutsy overwrites my resolv.conf file after I add my nameservers and both routers ip's it resets it to a single router and 1 nameserver and I have to manually add them in to get internet again. how do I keep the settings? | 01:58 |
| traiani | I don't know what's going on. My system was working great until I updated to 7.10. Now my sysload stays above 3 with no apps running, gnome-panel doesn't start up and my dmesg is getting filled constantly with messages like: "device-mapper: table: 254:2: linear: dm-linear: Device lookup failed" | 01:58 |
| hovinen | Hey all. I upgraded to Gutsy a few days ago and my sound volume is suddenly extremely low -- to the point that I can hardly hear it. All volume controls are maxed out. Any ideas? | 01:58 |
| jojoman02 | hovinen: did u do a fresh install? | 01:59 |
| traiani | gylrdfokker: describe exactly what you mean using example file names/paths | 01:59 |
| technel | I had a program using /dev/dsp for audio and it crashed. Now it says /dev/dsp is in use. How do I fix this w/o restart? Note I already "kill"ed the program... | 01:59 |
| hovinen | jojoman02, No, an upgrade from Feisty | 01:59 |
| timewriter | hi | 01:59 |
| ir0nfusion | anyone have personal screenshots of their ubuntu 7.10? | 01:59 |
| hwilde | Why is it looking for ata3 when that device does not exist??? "ata3.00: failed to set xfermode (err_mask=0x40)" | 01:59 |
| ir0nfusion | I want to go to ubuntu, and want to see different features. | 01:59 |
| timewriter | anyone can tell me how to disable the splash image when nautilus loads ? | 02:00 |
| jojoman02 | hovinen: instead of going insane trying to fix it i would do a fresh install, it might just solve ur problem | 02:00 |
| johnqsack | does anyone here know how to mount an SFS partition? i need it for write access also .. i can not specify what it is and get readaccess | 02:00 |
| astro76 | hwilde, again it's not the device, it's the interface | 02:00 |
| hovinen | jojoman02, That's really not an option in my case, I'm afraid. | 02:00 |
| astronut | this may seem like a stupid question, but /etc/fstab should be 644 right? | 02:00 |
| traiani | ir0nfusion: burn and boot from a liveCD. That way you can try parts yourself without installing it | 02:00 |
| ir0nfusion | I am doing that | 02:00 |
| Wgg | gravemind: Ok, I looked back and when I first attempted to remove evms apt-get told me that it's not installed, so not removed. Same thing goes with mdadm. Sorry I didn't mention that the first time around. So, still no usb drives, evms and mdadm not installed. | 02:00 |
| xoss | hi guys.. is it possible to run winxp on top of ubuntu using wine or cedega? | 02:00 |
| astro76 | astronut, yes | 02:00 |
| wastrel | astronut: mine is | 02:00 |
| dr_spork | crimsun, moving the monospace-lcd-filter didn't seem to affect anything | 02:00 |
| gylrdfokker | traiani: looks like i got it, the link is not there anymore | 02:00 |
| traiani | xoss: better to use vmware imho | 02:01 |
| hwilde | astro76, what do you mean interface | 02:01 |
| sethglickman_ | hello. i'm having issues with compiz. when i have metacity up and running, video plays fine. however, when i get compiz going, the effects and everything work, but when i try to play video, it crashes | 02:01 |
| gravemind | Wgg: and udevd is running at 100%? | 02:01 |
| sethglickman_ | any help would be really appreciated | 02:01 |
| * astronut is a debian user, trying to debug a ubuntu system | 02:01 | |
| Evanlec | xoss, you can run windows xp apps using wine or cedega, but to run windows itself, i would use virtualbox or vmware | 02:01 |
| jojoman02 | xoss: no because wine (or cedega) is a virtual machine, they are more like emulators (not really) | 02:01 |
| ir0nfusion | but traiani is this version have an easy way to install flash, adobe, and java? | 02:01 |
| Wgg | gravemind: not sure how to check for that | 02:01 |
| crimsun | dr_spork: interesting. Well, that's the extent of my glancing knowledge of it. | 02:01 |
| jojoman02 | xoss: not a virtual machine i meant | 02:01 |
| astro76 | hwilde, you might try googling the error and also on ubuntuforums.org | 02:01 |
| gravemind | Wgg: run "top" | 02:01 |
| unicycle | JimmyDee, back. | 02:01 |
| hovinen | Is there any good documentation on ALSA that I can consult about this? | 02:02 |
| xoss | traiani: ok, but it is possible right? i have some office applications that need xp to run that's why.. | 02:02 |
| traiani | ir0nfusion: don't know. possibly not, but it may come with some of that | 02:02 |
| Wgg | gravemind: also, if it matters, I can only find /etc/init.d/udev, not udevd | 02:02 |
| unicycle | I did what you said. Games now appear, but the framerate is extremely choppy. | 02:02 |
| traiani | xoss: under vmware you'll pretty much be able to install anything except 3d accelerated games | 02:02 |
| unicycle | JimmyDee, I'd guess less than 1 fps. | 02:02 |
| Jordan_U | When I try to upgrade the package dpkg I get the error "Package dpkg is not available, but is referred to by another package. This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source However the following packages replace it: coreutils manpages-de dselect dpkg-dev" | 02:02 |
| Wgg | gravemind: Ok, I have a process list, how do I look for udevd? | 02:02 |
| hwilde | astro76, been there, done that. there are bug posts related with no solutions. it recognizes my HD because it goes to grub, but then it fails... | 02:02 |
| coulamac | when i upgraded to Gutsy, the inspiron 1420n could not recognize the display and consigned me to low graphics mode. | 02:02 |
| traiani | Wgg: i'm having the same problem ... my udevd is out of control | 02:02 |
| traiani | since upgrading to 7.10 | 02:02 |
| Wgg | Hmm, not mine, my cpu seems fine | 02:03 |
| gravemind | Wgg: for me, there was a program called udevd running at 100%. If you don't see udevd near the top of the list, then it's not a problem | 02:03 |
| Wgg | but I can't find my usb drives | 02:03 |
| coulamac | it would be nice to get some graphics bling but i need to configure the display manually. | 02:03 |
| Wgg | ok | 02:03 |
| Wgg | thanks | 02:03 |
| Jordan_U | coulamac, What GPU ? | 02:03 |
| KingArthur- | do you have to set up swap space? | 02:03 |
| smallfoot- | hey, i want folders in different colors, so i can change colors of the folders | 02:03 |
| coulamac | any tips would be appreciated. | 02:03 |
| traiani | when I do a top my udevd is smoking and sysload > 3, but when I kill it everything becomes normal | 02:03 |
| eTiger13 | anyone get a kernel panic when they tried to upgrade to gutsy stating could not connect to vfs? | 02:03 |
| gravemind | traiani: uninstall emvs and mdadm if you have them installed | 02:03 |
| danny3793 | My networking is not working right, anything that uses it (FireFox, Synaptic, etc) take forever to even start downloading a file or downloading a website... | 02:03 |
| === Jared is now known as KI4IKL|Laptop | ||
| traiani | gravemind: fairly new to ubuntu, how do you uninstall apps? | 02:03 |
| gravemind | traiani: system>administration>synaptic | 02:04 |
| wastrel | apt-get remove or apt-get remove --purge (to clear the config files) | 02:04 |
| wastrel | or synaptic | 02:04 |
| Jordan_U | danny3793, Try using openDNS | 02:04 |
| Sitherae | /wrists... I cant get TF2 to work :( | 02:04 |
| traiani | wastrel: thanks. prefer your cmd line way | 02:04 |
| danny3793 | Jordan_U: can i get it through synaptic? Im using Gutsy | 02:04 |
| Jordan_U | danny3793, It's actually a DNS service http://opendns.org | 02:05 |
| musashi | when you create a launcher does it have an extension? | 02:05 |
| Creed | I have a weird problem, VNC (doesn't matter which server I use) gives me an X for a cursor and a gray dottet background. Nothing else, just that. How can I fix this? Video/xorg works on the machine (Im sure of this, if I plug a monitor in everything shows up fine). | 02:05 |
| navesrevart | hey, every time I start this computer, i go into safe graphics mode | 02:05 |
| b4n4n3 | Is it possible to mount an existing winXP-installation as virtual machine? | 02:05 |
| Jordan_U | navesrevart, What GPU? | 02:05 |
| traiani | wastrel: removing mdadm but didn't have emvs | 02:05 |
| macaco | hello | 02:05 |
| navesrevart | nvidia | 02:05 |
| Creed | b4n4n3, if you use VMware (only thing I know that allows this so far for Linux). | 02:05 |
| Jordan_U | navesrevart, Did you install the nvidia drivers through restricted manager? | 02:05 |
| navesrevart | yeah... | 02:05 |
| navesrevart | after I do that.. | 02:06 |
| navesrevart | I can't start ubuntu at all | 02:06 |

| navesrevart | GeForce 8600 | 02:06 |
| danny3793 | Jordan_U: my networking worked perfect in 7.04, and when i try to download Flashplugin-nonfree it tells me to insert the LiveCD... | 02:06 |
| navesrevart | it's a GeForce 8600GT M | 02:06 |
| gravemind | navesrevart: what are you doing? | 02:06 |
| Jordan_U | danny3793, Remove the CD from your sources.list | 02:06 |
| Creed | danny3793, remove the cdrom entry from your sources.list file. | 02:06 |
| navesrevart | I'm just trying to get the graphics to work | 02:06 |
| gravemind | danny3793: sounds like you still have the cd as a source | 02:06 |
| danny3793 | how can i remove it from my sources.list file? | 02:07 |
| Jordan_U | danny3793, Or in the GUI remove it in System -> Preferences -> SOftware Sources | 02:07 |
| MuniGod | Hi everyone | 02:07 |
| sc0tch | Anyone familar with the Digg post about Gutsy & Feisty overworking harddrives? the workaround supposedly is setting advanced power management on drive with hparm -B 255 <device> (when trying to set it on my drives, I get an IO Error | 02:07 |
| Jordan_U | danny3793, System -> Administration I mean | 02:07 |
| mrksht | ir0nfusion , if it doesnt work try the noacpi | 02:07 |
| who_ | im having problems with compizcan anyone help? | 02:07 |
| gravemind | danny3793: easiest way is system>administration>synaptic>repositories, and unchecking the cd box somewhere in there | 02:07 |
| who_ | compiz* | 02:07 |
| danny3793 | ok, will do that now, thanks :P | 02:07 |
| Jordan_U | !anyone | who_ | 02:07 |
| ubotu | who_: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? | 02:07 |
| Alonea | ok, not sure what I did, but I seemed to have screwed up my java. Eclipse now reports: Version 1.4.2-02 of the JVM is not suitable for this product. Version: 1.5 or greater is required. | 02:07 |
| wastrel | sc0tch: hdparm is a good way to break your drive if you don't know what you're doing | 02:07 |
| Alonea | I just tried to install the latest JDK and that didn't help | 02:07 |
| astro76 | sc0tch, you are using regular IDE, not SATA? | 02:08 |
| sc0tch | no they are SATA. | 02:08 |

| who_ | thx | 02:08 |
| novacheck | thanks, bud | 02:08 |
| danny3793 | that fixed it :D | 02:08 |
| djtansey | does anyone know if a text editor that allows "sidenotes"? I am reading a chinese document and would like to put notes on the side, where they are easier to reference than footnotes | 02:08 |
| jhonovich1 | i am SSHing into a server remotely and want to copy a file from the remote server to my desktop, how can i do that? | 02:09 |
| navesrevart | how do I add the restricted repos? | 02:09 |
| Creed | jhonovich1, are you using Ubuntu as the client machine? | 02:09 |
| Jordan_U | navesrevart, What do you mean when you say that after enabling the restricted drivers you can't boot at all, do you get any error messages? | 02:09 |
| Klanticus | jhonovich1, use the scp command on the client | 02:09 |
| jhonovich1 | yes, Creed I am | 02:09 |
| macaco | i have problem Camorama i have Webcam Creative Ubuntu connect /dev/video but camorama show me 3 imagen b/w how i can fix that? | 02:09 |
| navesrevart | nope | 02:09 |
| navesrevart | just goes | 02:09 |
| astro76 | jhonovich1, scp, sftp, you can go to places > connect to server in ubuntu and select ssh to do it with the file manager | 02:09 |
| wastrel | djtansey: that doesn't sound like a text editor function, maybe a word processor or page layout prog... (idunno :) | 02:09 |

| Jordan_U | Nocivo, Is English your first language? | 02:20 |
| mmmblark | is there any way to see configuration options for firefox plugins? (not extensions) | 02:20 |
| Creed | tyler_2, grab putty (sudo apt-get install putty), enter the server address/port, on the left menu, under SSH go to tunnels. type in the source port (port locally where you want to connect to), then remote IP:port, then click Add. | 02:20 |
| traiani | gravemind: had a lovely FF setup, upgraded to GG and now can't get into Gnome. Usually white screen after entering user/pass but sometimes I get at least the desktop (never gnome-panel, etc.). Sysload remains > 3 all the time, udevd is highest in 'top' output and dmesg is getting thousands of lines about device-mapper: ... Device lookup failed. <phew> | 02:20 |
| Tomrade | for a media box i normally go all the way and use linux media center | 02:20 |
| nickrud | mmmblark: about:plugins ? | 02:20 |
| gravemind | CokeNCode: traiani: the problem is sometimes for some reason there is raid software on your computer that goofs up if you don't have raid. So what I was told to do, is uninstall the packages emvs and mdadm, and restart. You can do this with apt-get or synaptic | 02:20 |
| Creed | tyler_2, in whatever you're using to do you SQL stuff, set the connect address to localhost:sourceport | 02:20 |
| mmmblark | nickrud: but can any settings be edited with that? | 02:20 |

| Jordan_U | kyleBAKED, In what way? | 02:21 |
| Creed | tyler_2, what do you mean? | 02:21 |
| nickrud | mmmblark: no, I would expect the plugin to use the config from the main app | 02:21 |
| traiani | gravemind: did that. didn't have emvs but removed mdam. it compiled a new kernel and I rebooted into it with same result | 02:21 |
| Jordan_U | When I try to upgrade the package dpkg I get the error "Package dpkg is not available, but is referred to by another package.

| Nocivo | the hard disk changes it of cpu but now it does not initiate to me!!! | 02:21 |

| kyleBAKED | a way to let me set the launch options for color and size etc, without having to read the man page and mess with launch argument | 02:21 |
| nickrud | mmmblark: which plugin? | 02:21 |
| tyler_2 | Creed: is that the server side? I know how to configure the client side /w putty | 02:22 |

| nickrud | Nocivo: what is your main language? Your question is hard to figure out | 02:22 |
| Creed | tyler_2, server side nothing needs to be done aside from the mysql port being open to the web (if its not your SSH server). | 02:22 |
| traiani | the udevd messages fill the screen too fast for me to see anything now | 02:23 |
| CokeNCode | i just deleted cdrom from the /dev folder ... is that going to be a problem :$ | 02:23 |
| CokeNCode | gravemind, | 02:23 |
| traiani | actually, the device-mapper messages | 02:23 |
| Jordan_U | jojoman02, Have you looked at the macbook page on the wiki? | 02:23 |
| tyler_2 | Creed: its my ssh server | 02:23 |
| gravemind | triani: that sounds like the problem I had. You probably have some kind of raid software | 02:23 |
| nickrud | CokeNCode: heh. it's a link to the actual cd device, depends on if your apps are looking at the real device or cdrom link | 02:23 |

| astro76 | blackflare2, oh | 02:32 |
| mmmblark | Nocivo: it sounds like you took a hard drive with Ubuntu on it, and put it into a different computer. You probably need to at least change bios settings to boot from that drive. it might require a new install though | 02:32 |

| Nocivo | wai.. | 02:34 |
| gogeta | $$$ | 02:34 |
| Creed | dpu, Mythbuntu is made for Myth. If all its going to be used for is media go with that. | 02:34 |
| soccer_hawk10 | hey all. how do i check what is causing my system to freeze? | 02:34 |
| stash | well you can install mythbuntu as a package in a regular ubuntu install | 02:34 |
| bernier | Hi, where can I get the 8.42.3 drivers from ATI? they say it's been released everywhere but links doesn't work and on ati site they only have 8.40 | 02:34 |

| zetheroo | why does Kubuntu not come with compiz-fusion installed? | 02:36 |
| stash | CokeNCode: nice nick :P | 02:36 |
| gogeta | soccer_hawek try turning off compiz | 02:36 |
| slimsadist | ? | 02:36 |
| Creed | stash, I doubt it lol No one wants to search...they want someone to hold their hand through everything (I dont mind, just wish once someone would check google..usually the first result has all the answers). | 02:36 |
| Jahooty | how do i insert the gimpprint driver? | 02:36 |
| orangefly | i am trying to get new login screens but i keep getting this when i try to download...."XML Parsing Error: not well-formed".... | 02:36 |
| stash | i have had really excellent results with google and any ubuntu-related problems | 02:36 |
| soccer_hawk10 | i changed the video drivers to i810 from intel. could that make a difference? | 02:36 |
| crdlb | zetheroo, because kde has not embraced compiz fusion, and instead will be going with their own composite manager (kwin 4) | 02:36 |
| gogeta | soccer_hawek compiz can be flaky | 02:36 |
| nickrud | I've found that simply giving someone who doesn't know what to look for on google a couple search phrases does wonders | 02:36 |
| markgreene | has anyone in here had trouble getting Vmware Server to bridge wireless connections? | 02:36 |

| soccer_hawk10 | ahh gogeta, but i love compiz | 02:37 |
| gogeta | soccer_hawek yea those drivers are relly flaky | 02:37 |
| CokeNCode | thanks stash ... it's from my uni days ... | 02:37 |
| sanguisde1 | ok what woud gparted not be able to see partiton but Fdisk can | 02:37 |
| sanguisde1 | ? | 02:37 |
| stash | CokeNCode: sounds about right | 02:37 |
| CokeNCode | coding to finish projects on time | 02:37 |
| CokeNCode | man, i miss those days sometimes | 02:37 |
| soccer_hawk10 | okay. well, i'm in XP now but when i go back i'll change the driver back | 02:37 |
| gogeta | soccer_hawek the compiz support on that set of drivers is bad at best | 02:37 |
| Creed | Anyone know how I can install VNC server on Ubuntu (existing X session) and not have it display an X for a cursor and gray dotted background when I connect? | 02:37 |
| soccer_hawk10 | alrighty, thanks for the help | 02:37 |
| eboyjr | --> Anyone have an idea about this? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/42023/ <-- | 02:37 |
| pman201 | Noone wants to help? | 02:37 |
| zetheroo | crdlb: so is it best to wait for kwin4 to be released? | 02:37 |
| soccer_hawk10 | btw, i love this community help we get with ubuntu | 02:37 |
| soccer_hawk10 | i've been a user since 7.04 released and i love it | 02:38 |
| crdlb | zetheroo, you can certainly use compiz fusion, it just won't have quite the same level of polish that it does on ubuntu | 02:38 |
| Jordan_U | Creed, You shouldn't see that if you are connecting to a current X session | 02:38 |
| ckennedy | Trying to find a network printer from laptop.... | 02:38 |
| crdlb | zetheroo, kwin4 is a long way away | 02:38 |
| CokeNCode | soccer_hawk10, yup, compared to the other linux distros ... it's amazing | 02:38 |
| soccer_hawk10 | absolutely | 02:38 |
| Jordan_U | Creed, And a VNC server comes installed by default | 02:38 |
| stash | crdlb: doesnt the python config manager work the same? why wouldnt it look as good under kde? | 02:38 |
| pman201 | Can someone help? | 02:38 |
| nickrud | eboyjr: just stuff for devs to see what's not working quite right, debugs & warnings.I've seen those myself | 02:38 |
| Creed | Jordan_U, I've tried a few different clients (currently trying x11vnc) but that is what I get :( If I plug a monitor in the normal desktop shows up. | 02:38 |
| soccer_hawk10 | and i've learned so much about ubuntu from when i've had to fix problems | 02:38 |
| MasterShrek | pman201, whats your problem? | 02:38 |
| Creed | Jordan_U, which one? | 02:38 |
| bruenig | advanced communities tend to be dead because people already know what they are doing | 02:38 |

| zetheroo | crdlb: will all the compiz-fusion effects work in Kubuntu? | 02:39 |
| soccer_hawk10 | so i've gotten many friends up and running | 02:39 |
| crdlb | stash, ccsm works fine | 02:39 |
| Jordan_U | Creed, System -> Preferences -> Remote Desktop | 02:39 |

| stash | WS use kerberos if its just linux environment | 02:39 |
| zetheroo | crdlb: what packages would I need to install?.... there are SOOOOO many | 02:39 |
| pman201 | Mastershrek My audio doesnt work all the time just intermmeiditly. | 02:39 |

| WS__ | I've never setu kerberos before, but it is only a linux environment | 02:39 |
| nickrud | lol | 02:39 |
| Creed | Jordan_U, any way I can do that using cli? Its a server machine in my closet and I really don't feel like pulling it out and dragging it downstairs to the extra monitor. | 02:40 |
| * elopio is saying hello | 02:40 | |
| WS__ | is there a good kerberos gui admin? | 02:40 |
| crdlb | zetheroo, compiz, compiz-kde and compizconfig-settings-manager should do it | 02:40 |
| WS__ | and does GDM etc. support it | 02:40 |
| WS__ | I am trying to section off some of my callcenter over to ubuntu | 02:40 |
| traiani | gravemind: the problem may have been that people in here kept saying 'remove emvs', but it's evms | 02:40 |
| crdlb | zetheroo, although compiz would pull in compiz-gnome :/ | 02:40 |
| elopio | has anybody tried to use a Kingston DataTraveler Reader on Ubuntu? | 02:40 |
| MasterShrek | pman201, is it a known issue with your audio card? | 02:40 |
| bruenig | those rooms are a little more fun though because you don't have an onslaught of basic questions and so you have more time for messing around | 02:40 |
| WS__ | I just got 4 new machines with vista, gotta ditch it | 02:40 |
| eboyjr | nickrud, Haha, that error is being displayed right before it shuts down... I wrote it all on a piece of paper and re-typed it in pastebin hahh! | 02:40 |
| hwilde | WS__, why do u want kerberos | 02:40 |
| traiani | I don't know what evms is, but hopefully I don't need it. :) | 02:40 |
| gogeta | ws_ vista must die | 02:40 |
| zetheroo | crdlb: I see... ok ... thanks.. I'll try it out.... | 02:40 |

| hwilde | WS__, you have a windows nt domain with usernames? because you can just use that u know | 02:41 |
| nickrud | jimmygoon: I do alt-f2 emerald --replace (or did, before I gave up on ati again) | 02:41 |
| MasterShrek | pman201, its possible the module isnt being loaded, if you know what module it is you can put it in /etc/modules to make sure it gets loaded | 02:41 |
| WS__ | currently I have windows AD | 02:42 |
| Jordan_U | Creed, Ahh, you just don't have anything set to run when X is started :) | 02:42 |
| WS__ | you can use AD with ubuntu? | 02:42 |
| pman201 | mastershrek i dont help? | 02:42 |
| stash | i guess , i don't really know too much about it | 02:42 |
| CokeNCode | have ubuntu taken their firefox partnership too far ? | 02:42 |
| stash | or rather, we use it in a more specialized environment | 02:42 |

| Jordan_U | berent, Do you mind re-installing? It is probably recoverable but what you have currently is Ubuntu with some parts upgraded to Gutsy and others not. It will not be easy to fix, and may not be fixable | 03:17 |
| saveme | This is what happened last time I tried to install Ubuntu, and I ended up booting on the windows xp disk and doing a boot recovery there. | 03:17 |

| gogeta | creed you said vnc | 03:18 |

| Flannel | Zigonick: check out AptOnCD | 03:19 |

| franky123 | hey i was just wondering, what is the status of fluxbuntu? i've been waiting to download it for a while but the site seems kind of broken ... | 03:20 |
| emmajane | m3mn0n_: left right arrow and up down arrow. :) you've got columns of volume control options. | 03:20 |
| Jordan_U | berent, The root cause of you problems is almost certainly running apt-get upgrade with Gutsy sources | 03:20 |
| saveme | I've got the partition mounted (Computer, right click mount) | 03:21 |
| emmajane | m3mn0n_: when you've cranked them all as high as they'll go, use [esc] to save and get out (IIRC) | 03:21 |
| Zigonick | Flannel currently on Windows, so cant use that | 03:21 |
| saveme | i believe it is /dev/sdc1 | 03:21 |
| m3mn0n_ | emmajane: is it supposed to be playing something right now? I dont hear a thing | 03:21 |
| saveme | Maybe. | 03:21 |
| gogeta | creed well if someone can set that your vnc will work | 03:21 |

| smallfoot- | im dualbooting Windows XP with Ubuntu 7.10, and the problem is that everytime I use Ubuntu, my time in Windows becomes wrong... this makes the dualboot thing cumbersome, and makes me want to not use Ubuntu... since it screws with my time... | 03:21 |
| m3mn0n_ | ah, yeah it's all cranked | 03:21 |
| emmajane | m3mn0n_: nope. it's just a control panel. | 03:21 |
| saveme | I'd like to confirm before I do it again.... | 03:21 |
| Naurd | ok, I have same card (i think), open sound mixer, and select the OSS peripherical, see if the volume is up | 03:21 |
| saveme | (that that is my boot drive) | 03:21 |
| emmajane | m3mn0n_: hmm. that's *usually* the problem. | 03:21 |
| saveme | maybe it's hda1, though. | 03:21 |
| Jordan_U | berent, Hopefully after editing the install script for libc6 you will be able to just finish upgrading normally, but I doubt it | 03:21 |
| emmajane | m3mn0n_: do you know what your sound card is? | 03:21 |
| lee986321 | is it possible to get a corrupt iso | 03:22 |
| franky123 | kena10: yes, but nothing is available yet unfortunately. do you know what's going on with the project? | 03:22 |
| dipu | kena10 .. i have configured pidgin for gtalk .. but i can only use it to chat and not talk !!! | 03:22 |
| hwilde | If it detects GRUB it is detecting my harddrive right? | 03:22 |
| m3mn0n_ | emmajane: HDA NVidia, SigmaTech chip | 03:22 |
| kena10 | dipu: do you mean audio chat? pidgin doesn't offer that functionality on any protocol, including gtalk, as far as I know. | 03:22 |
| berent | Jordan_U: what should i do now. i don't want to download all deb files again. is there a way to retain them and then reinstall since they have been fetched from gutsy sources only. | 03:22 |
| eyeRmonkey | dipu: it doesn't let you talk. it's not made for voice/video. sorry! | 03:22 |
| eyeRmonkey | What's the command to check the temperature of your computer from the command line? | 03:22 |
| dipu | is there no gtalk client for linux ??? | 03:23 |
| Naurd | m3mn0n_ : Sometimes the OSS volume is down preventing sound on the ALSA peripherical | 03:23 |
| saveme | I just did sudo grub and got it... It's /dev/sdd1 | 03:23 |
| kena10 | franky123: hmm, i don't know. sorry =( | 03:23 |
| emmajane | m3mn0n_: Hmm. I'm not finding *anything* in google with taht name. | 03:23 |
| Flannel | dipu: there's a bunch. Any jabber client is a gtalk client. | 03:23 |
| saveme | I do not know how to reinstall grub from this prompt though grub> | 03:23 |
| kena10 | Flannel: he means gtalk clients that do voice chat | 03:23 |
| m3mn0n_ | Nuard: I selected STAC92XX for the playbacks and the OSS one for device, I get the following message: | 03:23 |

| Yarbo | Okay, question. How do I change the terminal background to black? | 03:25 |
| ryy | Hello, my audio is not working since I installed Gutsy Gibbon on my Dell Inspiron 1501. Funny thing is that it worked fine on Fiesty. According to Vista, I have SigmaTel High Definition Audio CODEC, Sigmatel STAC92XX C-Major HD Audio Driver. Is there anything I do to revive my audio? Or should I just go back to Fiesty? | 03:25 |
| Yarbo | using the standard terminal in ubuntu? | 03:25 |
| Flannel | kena10, dipu, alright, if you're looking for the voice thing, you just need to find a XMPP client that supports it. And there are a few, I'm looking for specific names at the moment. (Hooray for standards) | 03:25 |
| saveme | wait, which drive will grub install on? The same one that windows is on? | 03:25 |
| Jordan_U | berent, I think you can back up your /var/cache/apt and re-install ( you will have to download the install CD ) then use the cached packages for any packages you already had installed | 03:25 |
| Naurd | m3mn0n_ : then click "file", "change device" (something like this) | 03:25 |
| heatman | Hello. Could anyone tell me how I can disable my onboard ATI video card since my old Dell Optiplex GX1p does not give that option in its bios? This conflicts with my pci GForce 4 400MX Nvidia Card and freezes my pc frequently! | 03:25 |
| saveme | it said sdd1, but I have that one mounted, and it didn't work (grub-reinstall) | 03:26 |
| m3mn0n_ | Naurd: okay I see what you mean now | 03:26 |
| eyeRmonkey | saveme: depending on how you want thigns set up, it will normally be installed on the main hard drive that your BIOS boots to, then GRUB will give you the option to choose which partition to boot to | 03:26 |
| saveme | Could not find device for /boot: Not found or not a block device. | 03:26 |
| larson9999 | maybe you guys can help. i installed citrix on two different ubuntu machines to login in my windows machine at work. one one when i'm logged in to my work machine via citrix, alt+tab alt tabs around in my work machine like it would if i were at work. on the other, it switches between apps on my home computer(i.e. the apps on my ubuntu machine). troulbe is i can't remember what setting i changed for this. anyone here know what | 03:26 |
| larson9999 | setting affects that? | 03:26 |
| Jordan_U | berent, You may want to move your /home to its own partition so that most of your settings will still be there after re-installing | 03:26 |
| m3mn0n_ | now to find an mp3 to test :P | 03:26 |
| hwilde | minimec, how do i get to the nvidia settings | 03:26 |
| saveme | eyeRmonkey: So how do I figure THAT out? | 03:26 |
| eyeRmonkey | saveme: the installer should install grub for you. did that not work? | 03:26 |
| saveme | (and correct it?) | 03:26 |
| saveme | Grub error 17 | 03:27 |

| Flannel | kena10, dipu, sorry I meant the jingle protocol (jabber is XMPP already), http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jingle_%28protocol%29 has a list, with a number of them being linux (and a few in the repositories) | 03:27 |

| yarbo | Hi, I have a question, can anyone help me? | 03:28 |
| m3mn0n_ | I ran a feisty livecd and it works | 03:28 |
| Jordan_U | !ask | yarbo | 03:28 |
| ubotu | yarbo: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :) | 03:28 |
| ryy | Hello, my audio is not working since I installed Gutsy Gibbon on my Dell Inspiron 1501. Funny thing is that it worked fine on Fiesty.

| larson9999 | i have a realtek... i think it's the cause of many of my flash crashes. or at least party to them | 03:28 |
| m3mn0n_ | emmajane: it didnt work under the gutsy livecd beta, I thought the real release would fix it | 03:28 |
| m3mn0n_ | emmajane: I guess i was mistaken | 03:28 |
| hwilde | saveme, grub error 17 is cannot mount selected partition. compare fdisk -l output to /boot/grub/menu.list | 03:29 |
| hwilde | minimec, how do i get to the nvidia settings | 03:29 |
| yarbo | Okay, so I compiled a kernel using linux-2.6.23.1 from kernel.org. I used the steps on the "master kernel thread" in the ubuntu tutorial forums. | 03:29 |
| eyeRmonkey | saveme: you might want to try the #grub channel. my knowledge of grub is only good when it comes to RAID | 03:29 |
| emmajane | m3mn0n_: it looks like there was a patch submitted for alsa to get things working, but I guess it's not been committed to the main repository? | 03:29 |
| minimec | hwilde: in gnome-terminal: sudo nvidia-settings | 03:29 |
| yarbo | Once I booted the new kernel, it gets to the "using low graphics" screen, then it just goes to a black screen and hangs. | 03:29 |
| berent | Jordan_U: i was thinking this. move all /var/cache/apt/archives to a backup CD. modify the sources.list to point to feisty. and issue a dist-upgrade. when it starts downloading packages of gutsy (after it modifies the sources.list ) i will issue ctrl-c. now i replace all deb back to /var/cache/apt/archives. | 03:29 |
| saveme | hwilde: Ummm... OK? wow, this is total gibberish to me. *sigh* I just want to use YouTube and compiz... LOL | 03:29 |
| yarbo | Any ideas? | 03:29 |
| berent | Jordan_U: and then again apt-get upgrade | 03:29 |
| hwilde | minimec, holy crap that is awesome | 03:29 |
| Zigonick | how do i install .tar.tz? | 03:30 |
| Jordan_U | berent, Why point to feisty? | 03:30 |
| smallfoot- | http://www.linux-hero.com/rant/explanation-ubuntu-hard-drive-wear-and-tear -- please fix this | 03:30 |
| berent | Jordan_U: so that i can dist-upgrade and as you pointed that's the root cause | 03:30 |
| hwilde | saveme, your harddrive has partitions on it. grub is the boot loader and has to know which partition to boot. error 17 says it cannot mount the selected partition. if you type in sudo fdisk -l it will show you the partitions. then fix the grub menu /boot/grub/menu.list | 03:30 |
| minimec | hwilde: if you don't have nvidia-settings.. then sudo apt-get install nvidia-settings | 03:30 |
| ryy | Hello, my audio is not working since I installed Gutsy Gibbon on my Dell Inspiron 1501. Funny thing is that it worked fine on Fiesty. According to Vista, I have SigmaTel High Definition Audio CODEC, Sigmatel STAC92XX C-Major HD Audio Driver. Is there anything I do to revive my audio? Or should I just go back to Fiesty? | 03:30 |
| yarbo | how do I know my question isn't just lost in the flood? | 03:30 |
| saveme | there IS no menu list in /boot/grub. | 03:31 |
| saveme | Could that be the problem? | 03:31 |
| saveme | yarbo: it most definitely IS. *sigh* | 03:31 |
| DjBones | theres no menu.lst? | 03:31 |
| Jordan_U | berent, That is the root cause of your problems but the damage has already been done, that is why I suggested that the easiest thing to do would be to re-install | 03:31 |
| sanguisde1 | yarbo: you dont but for the most part some one will see it | 03:31 |
| Flannel | yarbo: it's not. If no one answers, its because no one who's awake at the moment knows the answer, reask the question ever 20 minutes or so, and use the time in between to google, or check the forums or whatnot | 03:31 |
| berent | Jordan_U: Is it. Ok. how do i reinstall | 03:32 |
| saveme | DjBones: Nope! There's device.map and THAT'S IT. | 03:32 |
| hwilde | minimec, I have it, but it only has XScreen0. | 03:32 |
| emmajane | m3mn0n_: And it appears your sound card doesn't work on other flavours of Linux (or at least didn't earlier this summer): http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-hardware-18/my-sigmatel-stac9200-will-not-work-560999/ | 03:32 |
| DjBones | saveme: hmm.. if theres a smart person around here i think theres a terminal command that regenerates the grub menu from your fstab | 03:32 |
| Jordan_U | berent, Do you want to save your current preferences for the most part or do you want to just start completely fresh? | 03:32 |
| saveme | I wish there was a magic fix grub command I could just type in. | 03:32 |
| berent | Jordan_U: but i have 7 GB of /usr folder and i cant afford to lose all those | 03:32 |
| saveme | DjBones: I think I need a full grub reinstall. | 03:33 |
| hwilde | saveme, /sbin/grub-install | 03:33 |
| m3mn0n_ | emmajane: yeah that guy from the link has nearly the same setup as me | 03:33 |
| saveme | This is not the FIRST time I've encountered this. Though last time I went back to windows after error 22, which was different. | 03:33 |
| m3mn0n_ | emmajane: nothing muted, everything is just below max and still no sound | 03:33 |
| emmajane | m3mn0n_: sucks :( | 03:33 |

| DrunkPikachu | Cana anyone give me idea on why my ubuntu install gives me a "disk boot failure" right after it tells me to take the cd out and reset? | 03:34 |
| mudore | why my desktop top is ugly even with the GNOME XGL running? | 03:34 |
| LiMaO | hey everyone.. here i am.. back to ubuntu. after trying out opensuse and fedora, i am now sure (more than ever) that i love ubuntu =P | 03:34 |
| DrunkPikachu | The grub was installed properly | 03:34 |
| berent | Jordan_U: like /usr/lib /usr/local/bin etc/ | 03:34 |
| minimec | hwilde: Go to 'X Server Display Configuration' | 03:34 |
| emmajane | m3mn0n_: if ryy had sound working in feisty (with the same card) maybe you should give feisty a try? | 03:34 |
| saveme | Which sounds fancy, but I have NO clue what any of this means, actually. | 03:34 |
| mudore | minimec, thank I go for it | 03:35 |
| hwilde | minimec, oh it is disabled!~ awesome. | 03:35 |
| jkeyes0 | I've got ATi's 8.42.3 driver installed on my system (ATi X800 Pro card), and when I try to enable compiz with "compiz --replace", I get this error: Fatal: GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap is missing. Anyone know why this is happening? | 03:35 |
| emmajane | ryy: we were just looking at your card on someone else's machine. It *seems* as though it's not properly supported and that an alsa patch is required. | 03:35 |
| hwilde | minimec, they made this too easy :) I was already hakcing the xorg.conf but you can just click the gui | 03:35 |
| Jordan_U | berent, They will be remade when you install the packages in your new install, and I think the packages won't need re-downloading if you backup your /var/cache/apt/ | 03:35 |
| ryy | What is is an alsa patch? Why did I not need it before? Thanks | 03:35 |
| minimec | hwilde: ;) | 03:35 |
| Hamppari | jkeyes0: try #compiz-fusion | 03:35 |

| hwilde | minimec, lol nvidia-settings segfaulted but both monitors are working now | 03:36 |
| m3mn0n_ | yeah, there seems to be a real issue with this certain SigmaTel chipset | 03:36 |
| saveme | A lot of the software I use is not available in Windows, and there's also no driver for my TV card. | 03:36 |
| berent | Jordan_U: but if i install a iso , it is surely going to erase everything and install itself. | 03:36 |
| yarbo | Okay, so here goes. I compiled a kernel using the directions from the master kernel thread on the Ubuntu forums. Everything goes good until after I install the new kernel and reboot. when I reboot it shows some boot up messages, then the ubuntu logo comes up for a few seconds. After that I get the "Using Low-Graphics" warning. I just click OK at this point because I dont have drivers installed yet. When I click OK all I get is a bl | 03:37 |
| yarbo | ack screen and it seems to hang. Anyone have any suggestions:? Is there anyway I can put the driver right in the kernel ? | 03:37 |
| ryy | emmajane: What is an alsa patch and did it work? Thanks in advance | 03:37 |
| saveme | ryy: alsa patch means software needs to be written. | 03:37 |
| jkeyes0 | emmajane, Same error when I tried that (and it was written before the 8.42.3 driver was made). thanks though | 03:37 |
| Jordan_U | berent, Yes, which is why you would want to backup /var/cache/apt/ somewhere else ( and maybe move your /home to another partition ) | 03:37 |
| saveme | ryy: Go and buy a diff $5 sound card. :) | 03:37 |
| Dankchild | hey can someone help me? noone on the forum will respond. | 03:38 |
| emmajane | ryy: I don't know if it will work for you or not. I don't have the same problem you do.... ALSA is the software which controls sound within Linux. A patch is a new piece of software that fixes known problems. | 03:38 |
| nj786 | does anybody know how to install desklets | 03:38 |
| hwilde | ryy, try a more popular manufacturer (not sigmatel). i've never found a soundcard from creative or intel that doesnt work | 03:38 |
| Hamppari | saveme: do you think there will be a patch for that card anytime soon? | 03:38 |
| yarbo | hwilde, x-fi does NOT work. | 03:38 |
| Jordan_U | yarbo, You can install the drivers via console | 03:38 |

| Jeeebus | Hey I have a quick question, when i try to connect to an unprotected wireless network with ubuntu it fails to connect. lspci says I have a RaLink RT2561 network controller. iwconfig says lo and eth0 have no wireless extensions, but ra1 says it has RT61 Wireless. Can anyone point me in the right direction on where to look to diagnose the problem? | 04:22 |
| DrunkPikachu | hwilde: it says 'booting from harddisk' and nothing else. I've left it running for about 10 minutes and it goes nowhere so I reset | 04:22 |
| Jordan_U | Noobie, chmod +X ~/Desktop/whatever | 04:22 |
| Geheimnis- | sumone4life: all I did is changing the kind of monitor I had | 04:22 |
| hwilde | Noobie, cd Desktop; sudo ./fileyourwnattorun | 04:22 |

| sumone4life | how much memory should i allot to the card? | 04:23 |
| hwilde | DrunkPikachu, I dunno what to tell you. you could try to boot into the livecd, chroot to the harddrive, and then grub-install | 04:23 |
| === slapfaceware is now known as perlnoob | ||
| patricknev | and also i was wondering if reinstalling the ubuntu-desktop package will possibly fix the problem i have that the log-out screen does not show, yet the buttons are there, just invisible, and if i presss them, my system reboots, yet i dont know actually which reboot, logout, hibernate, button i am pressing | 04:24 |

| DrunkPikachu | hwilde: so just manually reinstall the grub? | 04:24 |
| chalcedony | hwilde: i did before | 04:24 |
| hvgotcodes | ?i guess ill stick with terminus... | 04:24 |
| hwilde | DrunkPikachu, there is a command /sbin/grub-install | 04:24 |
| hwilde | DrunkPikachu, maybe it finds your harddrive as a different name... i dunno | 04:25 |
| Geheimnis- | my laptop is still running feisty with a rather cheap ATI card, and I used Envy for it - but I heard it's not a good thing to use that anymore | 04:25 |

| chalcedony | hwilde: i installed all kinds of stuff to get java ... among other things i got an error saying i didn't have java running when i tried to use pastebin | 04:25 |
| kalleskaviar | heatman, that sounds reasonable. | 04:25 |
| sumone4life | would the sync range be on the back of the monitor? | 04:25 |
| DrunkPikachu | hwilde: as for reinstalling the grub my hand, I've already done that, no dice | 04:25 |
| heatman | kalleskaviar: possible that there is more than one module for that agp vid card? | 04:25 |

| tally | Geheimnis: I could choose higher but my monitor can't display any better | 04:28 |
| kalleskaviar | heatman, well i'd try by only blacklisting intel_agp | 04:28 |
| hirak99 | can't i ask apt-get to use the cd whenever the versions are same, and only to download a package if there is an upgraded version online? | 04:28 |
| heatman | kalleskaviar: ok tyvm I appreciate your help! | 04:29 |

| Geheimnis- | tally: Plug'n'play to me didn't work out too well | 04:29 |
| kalleskaviar | heatman, no probbies. don't forget to edit your xorg.conf as well | 04:29 |
| Jordan_U | hwilde, Or if you are going to be running GUI applications it's probably better to do "gksudo gnome-terminal" | 04:30 |

| Geheimnis- | tally: you think the video card makes your box lock up? | 04:39 |
| hwilde | Jordan_U, I can't I have to reboot again | 04:39 |
| Etherael | hwilde: I tried that, it just trims to the left of the first @ symbol. | 04:39 |
| kalleskaviar | heatman, well i'd make a backup first but yeah | 04:40 |
| Innomen | which mneans i assume it then uses those things that i extract and edit. | 04:40 |
| Jordan_U | hwilde, What do you mean? | 04:40 |
| Midgewa | is it worth upgrading to 7.10? | 04:40 |
| hwilde | Jordan_U, I was in the middle of synaptic install and it locked up again so now I have to reboot and fix the packages | 04:40 |
| heatman | or putting them in # would suffice? | 04:40 |
| desertc | Anyone having sound or ALSA issues? | 04:41 |
| hwilde | Jordan_U, i'm emailing shuttlesworth. this is so not worth it for fancy effects | 04:41 |
| Roswell_r | how can i get -dev packages in my synaptic package manager? | 04:41 |
| Jordan_U | Innomen, Yes, you need to change the boot loader, isolinux does not work with USB drives, the actual system is exactly the same | 04:41 |
| Geheimnis- | I tried upgrading from 7.04 to 7.10 and it was a nightmare | 04:41 |
| Naisenu | I am attempting to install the new nvidia graphics driver: 100.14.23. We go into virtual terminal 1, kill X and GDM. Run the installer. It borks and says "cannot find path to kernel source" - exiting. The kernel dev package is installed, nvidia dev package is installed. What's going wrong? | 04:41 |
| hwilde | There should be an option during the install, Do you want fancy effects, or Do you want it to not crash | 04:41 |
| Jordan_U | Naisenu, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NvidiaManual | 04:42 |
| McBain34 | [NvidiaManual] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NvidiaManual | 04:42 |
| Midgewa | Geheimnis, whats the deal with upgrading? do u lose stuff? | 04:42 |
| donogameel | who can recommend a good browser? Firefox is buggy with a lot of pages unfortunately - either that or it displays the page incorrectly | 04:42 |
| desertc | Midgewa: Some people had no trouble. Some people do. | 04:42 |
| Geheimnis- | I ended up formatting and installing from scratch because my system was pretty much unusable | 04:42 |
| desertc | Midgewa: Upgrades are problematic for any operating system. | 04:42 |
| Midgewa | yeah hence me not wanting to lost all my crap, i should probs just stick to 7.04? | 04:43 |
| desertc | Midgewa: Make sure you backup before doing ANYTHING problematic. | 04:43 |
| desertc | Stick with 7.04 if it is working fine for you | 04:43 |
| Hamppari | donogameel: tried opera? | 04:43 |
| desertc | The new version is not going to change your life or anything. | 04:43 |
| Midgewa | desertc: will probably stick to feisty - im moving back to XP soon anyway | 04:43 |
| antum | Hi there, I'm having trouble with my network settings. When I try to open Network Administrator it fails with an unknown error. | 04:43 |
| desertc | Midgewa: It's a shame you're giving up ownership of your computer. | 04:44 |
| donogameel | Is Opera better than Firefox? | 04:44 |
| KNY | !best | donogameel | 04:44 |
| ubotu | donogameel: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors. | 04:44 |
| antum | Midgewa I'd love to know why you would ever think about going 'back' to XP? | 04:44 |
| idleone_ | donogameel: try Epiphany and Opera or Dillo | 04:44 |
| sanguisdex | I just installed using the alternative CD" and the boot hangs at Running local boot scripts (etc/rc.local) .... [OK] I hit enter and nothing happens | 04:44 |
| limp | hi | 04:44 |
| KNY | why is scrollkeeper-update hogging half my CPU? What is it? | 04:44 |
| desertc | limp: hi | 04:44 |
| donogameel | okay | 04:44 |
| Roswell_r | Im having trouble compiling a program, i need -dev packages do apt-get or synaptic package manager need to be configured to look for -dev packages? | 04:44 |
| cindy | does anyone else have any thoughts about why a working wireless card/module won allow me to connect to an AP? | 04:44 |
| KNY | Roswell_r, no. just type -dev | 04:45 |
| desertc | Roswell_r: Why are you compiling programs!? | 04:45 |
| Geheimnis- | Wine works well for me, at least much more than before | 04:45 |
| Midgewa | antum its absurd, i know, but i miss gaming too much - ill keep it dual-boot but i imagine ill be lazy and end up using XP all the time | 04:45 |
| Jordan_U | Roswell_r, What are you trying to compile? | 04:45 |
| Bonste1 | 1 | 04:45 |
| KNY | sudo apt-get install libsomething-dev | 04:45 |
| limp | is there a keyboard layout shortcut? if no, how can i set one, i got that qwerty keyboard to get used to qwerty xD | 04:45 |
| Roswell_r | Rutilt | 04:45 |
| desertc | Midgewa: There are tons of games for Linux. | 04:45 |
| hwilde | Jordan_U, I ran sudo -s but it still asks me for the password for everything | 04:45 |
| Roswell_r | i cant find any packages with -dev in them for apt-cache though | 04:45 |
| Midgewa | yeah but none my friends play ;) | 04:45 |
| KNY | desertc, I compile most of my libs when I'm developing (libwx for instance) | 04:45 |
| desertc | Roswell_r: Ubuntu is not a "go compile new programs" operating system. | 04:46 |
| idleone_ | Roswell_r: sudo apt-get install rutilt | 04:46 |
| kalleskaviar | Wish someone would make a nice framebuffer webbrowser. then we could ditch GUI entirely. :) | 04:46 |
| KNY | Roswell_r, packages.ubuntu.com | 04:46 |
| === idleone_ is now known as IdleOne | ||
| Bonste1 | getdeb.com? | 04:46 |
| Roswell_r | so i have to download them manually from packages.ubuntu.com ? | 04:46 |
| Jordan_U | hwilde, You need to run programs from that terminal for them to run as root | 04:46 |
| KNY | Roswell_r, no, but once you get a package name, apt-get should see them | 04:46 |
| desertc | KNY: He's not developing his own programs, he's downloading some flaky code and trying to run it. | 04:46 |
| IdleOne | Roswell_r: rutilt is packaged | 04:46 |
| Geheimnis- | I wanna install terragear (for flightgear) but the only way is to compile it, and it's hell on earth | 04:46 |
| IdleOne | !info rutilt | Roswell_r | 04:46 |
| ubotu | roswell_r: rutilt: Configuration tool for rt2x00 wireless network cards. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.15-0ubuntu5 (gutsy), package size 263 kB, installed size 732 kB | 04:46 |
| KNY | desertc, that's a different story then | 04:46 |
| hwilde | Jordan_U, but what if I click on the menu, like for Synaptic. nobody else touches this computer so why do I have to type in my password if I want to change the clock settings | 04:47 |
| antum | How do I set dns setting via command line? My Network Administrator is broken in GUI mode. | 04:47 |
| boris55 | I installed gcc and none of my stuff is in /usr/include | 04:47 |
| hwilde | antum, /etc/resolv.conf | 04:47 |
| desertc | Midgewa: Quake Wars: Enemy Territory was just released for Linux | 04:47 |
| frank23 | Geheimnis-: flightgear is in the repositories | 04:47 |
| antum | hwilde thanks | 04:47 |
| boris55 | what do I need to do? ubuntu 7.10 | 04:47 |
| Geheimnis- | frank23: I know that | 04:47 |
| Hamppari | desertc: is it free to play | 04:47 |
| Geheimnis- | but terragear isn't | 04:47 |
| hwilde | antum, then you might have to do /etc/init.d/networking restart to reloadthe dns servers | 04:47 |
| Elfboy | how can i remove the 7.10 update it got my sys all bugy with x | 04:47 |
| desertc | Hamppari: Hell no it's not free. | 04:47 |
| Jordan_U | hwilde, same reason you need to in OSx and Vista, security | 04:47 |
| McBain34 | [OSx] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OSx | 04:47 |
| frank23 | Geheimnis-: oh. sotty | 04:47 |

| markle | hello | 04:48 |
| desertc | Hamppari: Sorry, it's just that Midgewa was looking for top quality games for Linux | 04:48 |
| Jordan_U | hwilde, What do you mean? | 04:48 |
| Roswell_r | bloody hell it is a package. damn spelling of 'rutilt' is what got me. thanks ill go try to install it. | 04:48 |
| Elfboy | crap | 04:48 |
| tem | When I'm installing Ubuntu from the live CD, I want to use the guided - resize option however, the interface is somewhat confusing. For the "new partition size," am I picking the size of the ubuntu partition or the new size of the existing partition? | 04:48 |
| Elfboy | and its not broke now | 04:48 |
| Hamppari | desertc: I just might :P I enjoy playing the original ET | 04:48 |
| hwilde | Jordan_U, I mean like how can I fake it out so it does not ask me anymore | 04:48 |
| desertc | There are plenty of no-cost and low quality games for Linux, too. | 04:48 |
| emaconline | anyone here can help me with the error: Failed to fetch http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/feisty-updates/main/source/Sources.bz2 MD5Sum mismatch | 04:49 |
| Jordan_U | hwilde, That is not a good idea | 04:49 |
| Naisenu | Jordan_U: Failing on that with the following error: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/42035/ | 04:49 |
| desertc | Quake Wars: Enemy Territories is presently the BEST game for PC computers right now, and it's available on your Linux operating system! | 04:49 |
| Jordan_U | hwilde, You would basically have all the security of windows XP if you did that | 04:49 |
| markle | quick question. does anyone know how to resolve the libaurdio2 package is not available? it crops up when attempting to isntall wine. Ubuntu 7.10 desktop version | 04:49 |
| Elfboy | Jordan_U, : ok how do i fix this | 04:49 |
| antum | hwilde perfect! Thanks heaps! | 04:49 |
| hwilde | Jordan_U, so it is possible then how do I do it | 04:49 |

| elninja | How do you install the low latency kernel? | 04:49 |
| hwilde | antum, if you dhcp it will overwrite that file unless you change the dhcp conf settings to not request dns | 04:49 |
| limp | No one knows about keyboard layout switching? | 04:50 |
| Jordan_U | Naisenu, Why are you running the -i386 kernel? | 04:50 |
| JimmyDee | elninja: sudo apt-get install linux-image-lowlatency | 04:50 |
| hwilde | limp, system-> preferences -> keyboard -> layouts | 04:50 |
| desertc | limp: what is keyboard layout switching? | 04:50 |
| elninja | Thanks JimmyDee | 04:50 |

| rhythmicmayhem | hwilde: Check out the sudoers man page | 04:50 |
| Elfboy | lol | 04:50 |
| limp | I mean, how to set a shortcut to switch from azerty to qwerty | 04:50 |
| hwilde | rhythmicmayhem, I want permanent sudo access and in the gui too | 04:51 |
| Naisenu | Jordan_U: Don't remember the rationale at the time. (Quoting the husband who knows more) Is this a problem? | 04:51 |
| Jordan_U | hwilde, Basically just set the timeout for sudo to be ~ 1 hour or something | 04:51 |
| Elfboy | ok i cany get x fix under 7.10 im rubning it in fail safre now so i caN CHAT how do i fic | 04:51 |
| desertc | limp: Yeah, it's under preference menu. | 04:51 |
| Elfboy | fix | 04:51 |
| IdleOne | hwilde: that is dangerous | 04:51 |
| limp | I didn't see any shortcut for switching | 04:51 |
| hwilde | IdleOne, why ? I am going to run the command anyways | 04:51 |
| McBain34 | [IdleOne] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IdleOne | 04:51 |
| Hamppari | desertc: Now there's a beautiful game | 04:52 |
| mEck0 | which burning app do you think is the best for gnome? | 04:52 |
| IdleOne | hwilde: having to type sudo command forces you to think about what you are doing | 04:52 |
| IdleOne | McBain34: ?? | 04:52 |
| hwilde | IdleOne, no it just makes me type my password a thousand times | 04:52 |
| McBain34 | [IdleOne] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IdleOne | 04:52 |
| Elfboy | ok i cany get x fix under 7.10 im rubning it in fail safre now so i caN CHAT how do i fix | 04:52 |
| Jordan_U | hwilde, Because that also lets any exploit in FF take control of your entire system | 04:52 |

| Zippy2 | does it make a difference if i download the 32 bit or 64 bit cd? can i install 64bit off both? | 04:53 |
| limp | oh i got it, thanks anyways :) | 04:53 |
| JimmyDee | Zippy2: nada, you get one or the other | 04:53 |
| Jordan_U | Naisenu, You should use the -generic kernel | 04:53 |
| Elfboy | ok i cany get x fix under 7.10 im rubning it in fail safre now so i caN CHAT how do i fix | 04:53 |
| Jordan_U | Naisenu, I seriously doubt that your computer is old enough to require -i386 | 04:54 |
| LiMaO | Zippy2: be sure to get the 32bit one. even if you have a 64bit system. save yourself time fixing troubles. | 04:54 |
| IdleOne | hwilde: ubuntu default is to hold sudo pass for 15 minutes I believe you can change that to make it 30 or 60 minutes but I am not sure where | 04:54 |
| Jordan_U | Elfboy, What GPU? | 04:54 |
| elninja | JimmyDee, I don't see a lowlatency one... Is the real time one the same thing? | 04:54 |
| Naisenu | Jordan_U: So how do I install and use the generic kernel? | 04:54 |
| hwilde | IdleOne, what about just the gui password prompt, can I override that? | 04:54 |
| kalleskaviar | hwilde, because the OS can't see the difference between what you runs and what some malevolent script runs. There is a reason why there are a gazillion Storm-bots out there. | 04:54 |

| Elfboy | ati | 04:55 |
| Lounge | once i got gutsy installed(clean) no more nautilus loadup - just goes to the desktop and takes longer than feisty | 04:55 |
| rhythmicmayhem | hwilde: You want root to everything on your GUI? Or just to install packages | 04:55 |
| Naisenu | Jordan_U: Apparently it's already installed. How do I use it instead of the -i386? | 04:55 |
| Jordan_U | Elfboy, Do you have fglrx installed? | 04:55 |
| Elfboy | no | 04:56 |
| hwilde | rhythmicmayhem, I dunno it is just annoying. synaptic asks for pw, then clock settings asks for pw, i keep having to type in my pw. | 04:56 |

| Jordan_U | !shortcuts | 05:05 |
| ubotu | Keyboard shortcuts can be set in System -> Preferences -> Keyboard Shortcuts. If your multimedia keys don't work with that, try the 'keytouch' package, explained at http://keytouch.sourceforge.net - See !Keyboard for changing layouts | 05:05 |

| wind | ahh | 05:08 |
| Dr_Willis | yell0w you can easially mount an iso image file. | 05:09 |
| Dr_Willis | !iso | 05:09 |
| ubotu | To mount an ISO disc image, type « sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint> » - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning. | 05:09 |

| yell0w | thanks Dr_Willis | 05:09 |

| KNY | Malfist, that makes one of us | 05:14 |
| KNY | what'd you do? | 05:14 |
| Malfist | KNY but I'd love to set the buttons so Ican rotate | 05:14 |
| wind | anyone know why my Fn key won't register with xev? | 05:14 |
| Geheimnis- | isn't there a mv command? | 05:14 |
| Bonste1 | jacklyn, sudo mv = move | 05:15 |
| KNY | wind, aren't Fn keys usually hardware based? | 05:15 |

| wind | what the jank | 05:16 |
| don_pucci | this only started with gutsy | 05:16 |
| Geheimnis- | jaclyn: and the trash is located in .Trash | 05:16 |
| KNY | Malfist, any other tips? | 05:16 |
| wind | so how do i set it up to work then | 05:16 |
| SteamMachine | When I say "too big", I mean unusuable -> it's going off the screen. | 05:16 |
| wind | even if it doesn't recognize it | 05:16 |
| Malfist | KNY do you have an IM, I think I can help you but it's too crowded in here | 05:16 |

| hwilde | What is the easiest way to install a new window manager? | 05:17 |
| SteamMachine | Mhm. | 05:17 |
| Dr_Willis | Tem Ive seen some vmware guides on how to get vmware to boot a 'isntalled os from a hard drive' - it takes a bit of manual editing of the vmware config files I belive | 05:17 |
| Zippy2 | hm | 05:17 |
| KNY | Malfist, you need to register via nickserv first; do you have Jabber? | 05:17 |
| Zippy2 | i dont know. | 05:17 |
| desertc | When will https://help.ubuntu.com be updated for 7.10 ?? | 05:17 |
| Tem | Dr_Willis, Thanks. I'll poke around for something | 05:17 |
| Dr_Willis | hwilde sudo apt-get install jwm icewm fluxbox (that will install 3 new ones for ya) :) | 05:17 |
| mEck0 | which app can you use for mixing music? ardour, rosegarden, audacity? | 05:17 |
| genii | hwilde: It depends on what window manager | 05:17 |

| genii | hwilde: "best" is subjective. Fastest is fluxbox | 05:19 |

| Tem | I think it's pretty funny that when I finally get an nvidia card, it's ati that's doing a better job supporting linux | 05:24 |
| tiago | genii: i just returned, grub said no such partition exists, is it possible the vista boot files were over written by osx86? or have a selected the wrong partition? | 05:24 |

| qwerty121 | thanks Zippy21 | 05:27 |
| venomousice | Dr_Willis: yeah got it. thanks. | 05:27 |
| cube | do you have the advanced desktop effects setting? | 05:27 |
| bqmassey | yeah.. it downloaded them and i had to reinstall | 05:27 |
| MasterShrek | deneme, you need to enable the universe repository apparently | 05:27 |
| qwerty121 | *Zippy2 | 05:27 |
| CristalCube | yes | 05:27 |
| deneme | how can i do this thanks anyway | 05:27 |
| CristalCube | but not activates | 05:27 |
| bqmassey | cube: i gave me an error when i tried to put it on that | 05:27 |
| Dr_Willis | venomousice and YES that ccsm config tool is rather complex. :) | 05:27 |
| cube | did it give you an error when you enable your card? | 05:28 |
| c0Ld | Is "Allow local system administrator login" disabled be default in the security tab of the login window's manager? Isn't that what controls whether or not the root account is locked? | 05:28 |
| deneme | MasterShrek: how can i do this thanks anyway | 05:28 |
| MasterShrek | deneme, system > administration > software sources enable the checkbox for universe and multiverse | 05:28 |
| thedude1373 | can anyone point me in the right direction to get the newest ati drivers working with aiglx | 05:28 |
| venomousice | Dr_Willis: i was running fusion prior to gutsy, so I'm somewhat familiar with it. I just need to find the setting for it | 05:28 |
| Dr_Willis | c0Ld that keeps root from loging into the kdm/gdm X session. thats just ONE place root is disabled. | 05:28 |
| MasterShrek | deneme, then open a terminal and do: sudo apt-get update followed by: sudo apt-get upgrade | 05:28 |
| tiago | genii: hd(0,0) is where osx86 is now installed but origionaly that was a windows partition, do you think vistas boot loader may have been stored on that partition despite vista being on another partition? | 05:29 |
| Dr_Willis | c0Ld if root had a password - that setting would keep Root from Loging into X directly | 05:29 |
| bqmassey | cube: nope.. but when I select "Extra" in the Appearance Preferences, under Visual Effects, a message box says "The Composite extension is not available" | 05:29 |
| cube | cold: yes | 05:29 |
| cube | !root | 05:29 |
| ubotu | Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 05:29 |

| cube | bqmassey: have you tried opengl on anything else? | 05:30 |
| ccb0x45 | hey, I was having problems with my wireless, so someone said to try ndis | 05:30 |
| altf2o | anyone installed Gutsy on a MacBook Pro? | 05:30 |
| MasterShrek | qwerty121, no, i dont beleive build-essential is on the live cd | 05:30 |
| ccb0x45 | so I loaded my driver and did a modprobe | 05:30 |
| wind | ok so can someone help me with this function key thing? when i do "cat /dev/input/event1" and press the fn key + f2 i see a bunch of garbage on the terminal, how do i set it up so that the fn key will work now? -- I do "sudo fsfn -n -d /dev/input/event1" but it says fsfn isn't a command... is there a differnt command? | 05:30 |
| c0Ld | Dr_Willis: It's enabled on my computer, but I have no reason for root access outside of sudo. Is it safe to disable that option, or will it lock ALL admin accounts out? | 05:30 |
| MasterShrek | ccb0x45, what wifi card? | 05:30 |
| thedude1373 | can anyone point me in the right direction to get the newest ati drivers working with aiglx | 05:30 |
| bqmassey | cube: don't know what you mean.. i'm trying to enable compiz-fusion | 05:30 |
| ccb0x45 | and blacklisted my old driver | 05:30 |
| cube | compiz is opengl | 05:30 |
| ccb0x45 | MasterShrek: its a pci based on the 8151 realtek | 05:30 |
| dmaresca | is it possible to use Fixedsys font in mirc through wine?!?????? | 05:30 |
| phate | I've got a dell bluetooth mouse, I can't get it to connect using the bluetooth icon in the gnome tray keep getting some obex:// error | 05:30 |
| MasterShrek | compiz runs on opengl** | 05:30 |
| cube | so have you tried any games that use it or anything else that would be using it | 05:30 |
| qwerty121 | MasterShrek, well i installed that from the CD in my friend's machine... | 05:30 |
| thedude1373 | 8.43 | 05:30 |
| phate | any idea how to make it connect | 05:30 |
| bqmassey | cube: haven't tried... | 05:31 |
| hwilde | c0Ld, you could just look at the /etc/sudoers file | 05:31 |
| genii | tiago: Is that drive still physically attached to the computer in bios etc on first ide ribbon as master? | 05:31 |
| tiago | genii: previously grub would load and then when i selected the windows option i would be taken to the windows loader to choose between vista and server but since server was stored on 0,0 maybe the vista loader was put there? | 05:31 |
| MasterShrek | qwerty121, well then it may be on the cd, i have no idea | 05:31 |
| dmaresca | ??/ | 05:31 |
| ccb0x45 | mastershrek, I blacklisted the native driver... and when I reboot it doesnt show any wireless in the network manager | 05:31 |
| genii | (or as first sata, etc etc) | 05:31 |
| cube | Bqmassey: maybe your card isn't working if it can't find composite driver... | 05:31 |
| ccb0x45 | but ndis says the device is present | 05:31 |
| tiago | genii: i belive so, i have not changed the physical configuration at all | 05:31 |
| MasterShrek | ccb0x45, and ndiswrapper is loaded? | 05:31 |
| deneme | MasterShrek: i took this output | 05:31 |
| ccb0x45 | MasterShrek, I dunno how do I tell that | 05:31 |

| MasterShrek | deneme, update not upgrade | 05:32 |
| dmaresca | is it possible to use Fixedsys font in mirc through wine?!?????? | 05:32 |
| cube | and well you could try legacy but if its new and not working its probably not gonna if you are already on a fresh install of gutsy? | 05:32 |
| deneme | i did it before | 05:32 |
| ccb0x45 | MasterShrek, its not loaded, how do I load it? | 05:32 |
| bqmassey | cube: under Restricted Drivers, "ATI accelerated graphics driver" is enabled and "in use" | 05:32 |
| genii | tiago: OK. So when windows was installed, it was put on the second partition or third partition of that drive? | 05:32 |
| MasterShrek | qwerty121, possibly, it may also mean that apt is expecting a different version of the package | 05:32 |
| bqmassey | cube: yeah, brand new install | 05:32 |
| c0Ld | hwilde: I'm asking if I can disable the "Allow local system administrator login" option in the login window manager without having all admin accounts locked out. I'm not sure if that option is only root or if it's all sudo owners as well. | 05:33 |
| cube | bq: I had to install a few files to get compiz to work | 05:33 |
| MasterShrek | ccb0x45, sudo modprobe ndiswrapper i think, i havent used ndiswrapper in awhile, but i think its loaded just liek a normal kernel module | 05:33 |
| phate | how do I connect my dell bluetooth mouse? | 05:33 |
| qwerty121 | MasterShrek: i am an EE user and installed EE from the same CD. Possibly the CD is corrupted | 05:33 |

| ccb0x45 | is there a way to do that? | 05:36 |
| MasterShrek | ccb0x45, maybe, i dont know i dont use network manager, bet way would be to restart x | 05:36 |
| venomousice | ccb0x45: sudo /etc/init.d/networkmanager restart | 05:36 |
| ccb0x45 | thanks | 05:36 |

| c0Ld | "Enable local system administrator login" is enabled in the login window preferences on my computer, but I have no reason for root access outside of sudo. Is it safe to disable that option, or will it lock ALL admin (or sudo-using) accounts out as well? | 05:37 |

| Gohan | Hello is this where I can come if my live cd does not work? | 05:37 |
| drake | Is there a VMware to allow a Windows VM inside of Ubuntu??? | 05:37 |
| DWonderly | MasterShrek My monitor states that the "VGA mode is not supported. | 05:37 |
| Dr_Willis | drake vmwareserver can do that easially enough, or virtualbox | 05:37 |
| qwerty121 | drake, i guess so... | 05:37 |
| bp | i'm new to the linux universe. i have zero skill with the terminal. i'm running ubuntu, and was wondering about using the synaptic manager to install programs | 05:38 |
| MasterShrek | Gohan, check it for defects, if its fine and still doesnt work try the alternate install cd | 05:38 |
| desertc | DWonderly: EGA ? | 05:38 |
| desertc | DWonderly: How about CGA ? | 05:38 |
| drake | where can I get vmwareserver | 05:38 |
| bp | i've successfully installed them, but now i don't know how to run them | 05:38 |
| MasterShrek | DWonderly, thats very strange, not sure exactly what to do on that | 05:38 |
| Dr_Willis | bp depens on the program. You can use synaptic to see what files a package installed. | 05:38 |
| Gohan | MasterShrek: I checked defects before my frist try, whats an alternate install cd? | 05:38 |
| clegane | cold: that option is disabled by default; you should be okay | 05:38 |
| desertc | MDA? | 05:38 |
| bp | for example ircii | 05:38 |
| MasterShrek | bp, most programs should show up in your menu | 05:38 |
| ccb0x45 | venomousmice, there isnt a network manager to restart in init.d just networking | 05:38 |
| Dr_Willis | bp some thimes when you isntall somthing the menus dont get refreshed untill you logout/back in | 05:38 |
| bp | nothing ever shows up in the menu | 05:39 |
| MTecknology | can ubuntu x64 support? | 05:39 |
| bp | after about 10 installs | 05:39 |
| MasterShrek | Gohan, text based installer, go back to the download page and look for the check box | 05:39 |
| desertc | MTecknology: Oh yeah. | 05:39 |
| drake | Dr_Willis, where can I get vmwareserver, will it run on x86 PCs | 05:39 |
| MasterShrek | MTecknology, of course, im running it righ tnow | 05:39 |
| Gohan | mtecknology yes it does 64 look under the get ubuntu options | 05:39 |
| Dr_Willis | bp some programs dont have any icons/menu items. depends on the program | 05:39 |
| tiago | genii: hey mate im back, still no good | 05:39 |

| venomousice | MasterShrek: that's what i was after, thanks :) | 05:39 |
| DWonderly | MasterShrek thats why I was thinking it was my monitor. When I run any other driver then mesa my screen shows black. Monitor will not output. | 05:39 |
| desertc | MTecknology: Best OS for 64bit | 05:40 |
| MTecknology | how much RAM can it support | 05:40 |
| clegane | bp, many program never show up in the menu b/c they don't have a gui; they are command line based | 05:40 |
| c0Ld | MasterShrek: So if I disable it it won't effect my main account at all and I'll still be able to access sudo etc? | 05:40 |
| CristalCube | what can i do with that link http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/gutsy/universe/binary-i386/Packages.gz ?? | 05:40 |

| clegane | bp, don't expect ubuntu to be windows; i'd also suggest getting acquainted with the terminal; it's really not hard | 05:41 |
| bp | terminal seems much more complicated than dos. anyone know a good place to start? i'm totally new. i don't even know the equivalent of a dir command | 05:41 |
| Dr_Willis | hwilde i would guess you have the 'shared desktop' enabled. | 05:41 |

| juz-kidding | ?? | 05:45 |
| wastro | All I get is "failed at http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/gutsy/universe/binary-i386/Packages.gz: gzip subprocess failed" | 05:45 |
| Zippy2 | and here i am :( | 05:45 |
| clegane | bp, try this http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/cli.html | 05:45 |
| Gohan | i love oreilly learned html from them | 05:45 |
| bp | will borders carry it? i have one across the street. maryland rocks | 05:45 |
| Zippy2 | wastro: try ca. instead of us. | 05:45 |
| kidbuntu | help please. i'm having trouble with my synaptic again got this error "E:The package libcrypt-smbhash-perl is not ok and I don't know how to fix it!' | 05:45 |
| dmaresca | Tellico fucking rocks! Best collection manager EVER, it does EVERYTHING :) and it's FREE and its in UBUNTU! :D :D :D | 05:45 |
| hwilde | Dr_Willis, yeah I guess i'll try that | 05:46 |
| Dr_Willis | !ohmy | 05:46 |
| ubotu | Please watch your language and topic, and keep this channel family friendly. | 05:46 |
| hwilde | !language | dmaresca | 05:46 |
| ubotu | dmaresca: please see above | 05:46 |
| thedude1373 | tonyyarusso: ati-driver-installer-8.42.3-x86.x86_64.run, used that and dpkg the 4 debs it gave | 05:46 |
| wastro | Zippy2: how do I specify which server I want to use for the update packages? | 05:46 |
| buntunub | wow anyone else notice that Gutsy does not properly configure SAMBA printing? | 05:46 |
| dmaresca | k | 05:46 |
| hwilde | Dr_Willis, any idea why it thinks I have 3G of ram when I have 4 according to the bios? I have a feeling htat might be related to the lock ups | 05:46 |
| agscala | How can I set up my keyboard layout to dvorak on gutsy? | 05:46 |
| thesysop | i have | 05:46 |
| Dr_Willis | buntunub ive had some issues with samba.... and gutsy sadly. | 05:47 |
| Sniper223 | gutsy seems kinda slower than feisty | 05:47 |
| hwilde | !dvorak | agscala | 05:47 |
| ubotu | agscala: dvorak is a keyboard layout that aims to be more comfortable and efficient alternative to the standard "QWERTY" pattern. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dvorak_Simplified_Keyboard | 05:47 |
| thesysop | it also threw something into a windozs share printer q that i cant delete | 05:47 |
| Dr_Willis | hwilde thats weird. How much do you really have? :) the bios is right isent it? | 05:47 |
| buntunub | I just discovered that it left the "load printer" option commented out in my smb.conf after setting "share connected printers" option on in the printing utility | 05:47 |
| tonyyarusso | thedude1373: so at what step are you having to do that command? (and I think you only need one of the 4 debs for most things) | 05:47 |
| MasterShrek | hwilde, because you are using a 32 bit os | 05:47 |
| Gohan | bah qwerty is just as easy and widely used | 05:47 |
| hwilde | Dr_Willis, according to the BIOS and MemTest is says 4GB, but top and /proc/meminfo say 3 | 05:47 |
| buntunub | holy cow there is a LOT of stupid little bugs in Gutsy that should never have leaked into a release | 05:48 |
| agscala | I want to try dvorak out for the hell of it' | 05:48 |
| Dr_Willis | i though 32bit affected ram OVEr 4gb. Or is that over 4. counting video ram? | 05:48 |
| MasterShrek | hwilde, u need to be running ubuntu 64 bit to support more than 3 gigs of ram | 05:48 |
| agscala | but I don't know how to enable it | 05:48 |
| Dr_Willis | buntunub start filing bug reports. :) | 05:48 |
| hwilde | MasterShrek, umm 32bit goes up to 4G | 05:48 |
| MasterShrek | Dr_Willis, im pretty sure 32 bit caps at 3 gig | 05:48 |
| Dr_Willis | File enough and get Cake! | 05:48 |
| Zippy2 | 32 bit still has pae | 05:48 |
| MasterShrek | i could be wrong tho i guess, ive never had that much ram :) | 05:48 |
| buntunub | ive filed many bug reports and they continue to go unresolved/unanswered | 05:48 |
| Dr_Willis | I got 3 gb here. | 05:49 |
| Zippy2 | wastro: /etc/apt/sources.list | 05:49 |
| desertc | With a 32 bit address space you can have memory allocated up to 2^32 = 4,294,967,296 = 4GB. With a 64 bit address space you can have up to 2^64 (18,446,744,073,709,551,616= 16,777,216 terabytes | 05:49 |

| irieKEN | Anyone in here have a great deal of experience with GPS? | 05:49 |
| buntunub | the biggest of which is the dual monitor/resolution issue when using that craptastic Screens and Graphics utility | 05:49 |
| hwilde | desertc, so why is ubuntu only recognizing 3G ? | 05:49 |
| tyler_ | Is there anyone who could help me with an ati 200m video driver issue, i looked in the forums and couldnt find anything that worked | 05:49 |
| thedude1373 | tonyyarusso: sudo sh ./ati-driver-installer-8.42.3-x86.x86_64.run --buildpkg Ubuntu/gutsy, and sudo dpkg -i *.deb | 05:49 |
| thedude1373 | tonyyarusso: sorry, miscopy | 05:49 |
| altf2o | is your kernel pae enabled? I wouldn't imagine it to be default in a vanilla kernel install. | 05:50 |
| wastro | Zippy2: The package server that its failing on isn't in the /etc/apt/source.list, I believe its trying to change it for doing the updates. I'm going to try changing my software sources to canada thought. | 05:50 |
| buntunub | word to the nubs...stay AWAY from that utility it will hose up your xorg.conf like never before | 05:50 |
| Zippy2 | ok | 05:50 |
| tonyyarusso | thedude1373: ah, okay. Now, can you define "initialize fglrx on load"? | 05:50 |
| tyler_ | Is there anyone who could help me with an ati 200m video driver issue, i looked in the forums and couldnt find anything that worked | 05:50 |
| MasterShrek | !ati | tyler_ | 05:50 |
| ubotu | tyler_: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 05:50 |
| hwilde | tyler_, install the ati fglrx driver | 05:50 |
| irieKEN | If you have two GPS receivers that are within 10ft of eachother, will their error be similar. Meaning: Will they both be off by the pretty close to the same amount and in the same direction? | 05:50 |
| hwilde | irieKEN, no | 05:51 |
| ccb0x45 | can anyone help me out who has gotten ndiswrapper to work on 7.10? | 05:51 |
| irieKEN | hwilde: Are you sure? | 05:51 |
| buntunub | Nvidia users should use the nvidia-settings utility and DO NOT enable Xinerama lol | 05:51 |
| Zippy2 | i wonder what percent of people who have questions first ask if they can ask the questions | 05:51 |
| kidbuntu | "E:The package libcrypt-smbhash-perl is not ok and I don't know how to fix it!' | 05:51 |
| hwilde | irieKEN, they will be off +/- the error margin in whatever direction they want to be | 05:51 |
| Dr_Willis | irieKEN i belive theres a random 'error' generated in the signals also. | 05:51 |
| irieKEN | Hwilde: I'm trying to figure out how DGPS works... and it seems that that is how it's supposed to work (sends correction code). | 05:51 |
| tyler_ | ubotu: hwilde: already tried to no avail | 05:51 |
| desertc | buntunub: I got my NVIDIA monitors working | 05:52 |
| hwilde | tyler_, sry that is all i know about ati | 05:52 |
| desertc | buntunub: The Screen and Graphics tool worked for me. | 05:52 |
| tiago | genii: is it possible that say vista was on partition 3 with its loader on partition 1 and installing osx on partition 1 over wrote vistas loader? | 05:52 |
| thedude1373 | tonyyarusso: 1. how do i do that and 2. the build/install is what fails; don't i need to do that first | 05:52 |
| desertc | It worked poorly, but it finally worked. | 05:52 |
| buntunub | ya so did i after i rebuilt xorg.conf from scratch with dpkg-reconfigure and then use nvidia-settings | 05:52 |
| desertc | I didn't do any of that | 05:52 |
| tonyyarusso | thedude1373: oh, bah. Erm, see what happens if you use Ubuntu/7.10 instead of Ubuntu/gutsy, just to humor me. | 05:53 |
| ToddEDM | so does anyone know of a list of programs available with Apt-Get??? someone please.. even a NO to my question would be nice | 05:53 |
| thedude1373 | tonyyarusso: or are you talking about adding "Load "fglrx"" to xorg? | 05:53 |
| Senesence | How do I view hidden processes in Ubuntu? | 05:53 |
| desertc | Plus, the tool keeps an archive of EVERY revision of your xorg.conf | 05:53 |
| desertc | Senesence: hidden? | 05:53 |
| DerangedDingo | Sensesence: hidden or administrative? | 05:53 |
| genii | tiago: Yes, entirely possible. Windows normally wants control of the MBR which is at start of drive | 05:53 |
| kidbuntu | E: The package libcrypt-smbhash-perl is not ok and I don't know how to fix it! | 05:53 |
| Dr_Willis | ToddEDM apt-cache search command is normally used. | 05:53 |
| kidbuntu | E: Internal error opening cache (1). Please report. | 05:53 |
| desertc | Senesence: Why do you think they are hidden? | 05:53 |
| buntunub | that was after Screens and Graphics trashed my xorg because it couldnt detect my video card or monitors (even though they were listed on the original xorg after install) | 05:53 |
| strabes | ToddEDM: you can use apt-cache search <keyword> to search for programs in the repos | 05:53 |
| GenNMX | Sigh. Any ideas why my system keeps locking up when trying to finish initializing Linux's software raid, md? Every ATA device in my system starts lighting up like a christmas tree when this happens. On my latest custom kernel build of 2.6.23, I get a time out on accessing /dev/md7 after 1.5 hours. I never had this problem before I tried upgrading from RAID1 to RAID10. | 05:53 |
| Sniper223 | Any Ubuntu 7.10 users here having a problem where once in a while when you boot your computer not all the gnome daemon thingys load but when you restart again it works fine? | 05:53 |
| hwilde | desertc, MasterShrek, Jordan_U, the bios and memtest say 4G, but top and meminfo say 3G. why does ubuntu think there are only 3G ? I am sure this is why the system is locking up now | 05:53 |
| tonyyarusso | thedude1373: I'm just repeating back what you said. | 05:53 |
| n2diy_ | ToddEDM: Fire up Synaptic and browse what is available. | 05:54 |
| Senesence | desertc: My mouse lags every 2 seconds, but nothing seems to be running when watching system monitor or top. | 05:54 |
| desertc | buntunub: It keeps an archive. . . why didn't you just restore to a previous version if it "trashed" your config | 05:54 |
| tiago | genii: would there be any way to restore vistas mbr to partition 1? i have windows software to do it but is there a way within linux? | 05:54 |
| hwilde | Sniper223, I would settle for it just booting everytime at this point. | 05:54 |
| desertc | Senesence: Must be the mouse driver... but there are no hidden processes | 05:54 |
| sumone4lif1 | how do i compilke from source? | 05:54 |
| buntunub | because previous version was still wrong for dual monitors | 05:54 |
| ToddEDM | ok cool thanks guys... another quick and easy question for you guys..... is there a way to save lines i write in Terminal? | 05:55 |
| Jordan_U | hwilde, You are using a 32 bit kernel, you need the server or x86 kernel to see all 4 GIG | 05:55 |
| desertc | sumone4lif1 You got the wrong OS to compile source | 05:55 |
| clegane | sumone4lif1, open synaptic and install the build-essential package | 05:55 |
| === n2diy_ is now known as n2diy | ||
| hwilde | Jordan_U, where is this documented ?? | 05:55 |
| Jordan_U | hwilde, I meant 64 bit, not x86 | 05:55 |
| buntunub | it was either test out the Screens and Graphics (cause I foolishly thought it would work) or build the second monitor by hand, or use nvidia-settings | 05:55 |
| hwilde | Jordan_U, I really do not believe that is true where does it say that | 05:55 |
| Jordan_U | hwilde, It's true of all operating systems :) | 05:55 |
| Senesence | desertc: It worked fine with Feisty...so I don't think it's the driver - unless it was changed for the gutsy release...Was it? | 05:55 |
| hwilde | Jordan_U, no! 32bit architecture can have 4G of ram! | 05:55 |
| desertc | buntunub: I have two nvidia montiors working from playing around with the new ubuntu tools | 05:56 |
| AfterDeath | ToddEDM: check out the ~/.bash_history file | 05:56 |
| desertc | Senesence: I have no idea. Did you search launchpad? | 05:56 |
| hwilde | buntunub, when my machine boots, it does have dual monitors with nvidia. | 05:56 |
| genii | tiago: No way from in linux, unfortunately. With w2k/xp the usual route is to boot to cd in recovery console then do FIXMBR. I suspect same in vista but have no firsthand knowledge | 05:56 |
| Jordan_U | hwilde, Yes, but not with a standard kernel, that is why 32 bit XP cannot see >3GIG either | 05:56 |
| AfterDeath | (run "less ~/.bash_history" ) | 05:56 |
| drake | i downloaded the VMwareserver and extracted the files, how do i install it. I tried running the vmware-install.pl file, but nothing happened | 05:56 |
| power78 | how can i enable S/PDIF out on my audi card? | 05:56 |
| desertc | hwilde: Jordan_U is correct | 05:56 |
| buntunub | thats great desertc. take a looksee on over at our Forums to see that an aweful lot of Nvidia users are having big problems with this. I guess you are one of the lucky few | 05:57 |
| tiago | genii: thanks alot mate i guess ill give that a try | 05:57 |
| hwilde | desertc, Jordan_U, well that is crap no wonder it keeps locking up using half a dimm.... I have 2x 2G | 05:57 |
| desertc | hwilde: It is an architecture limitation, not an OS limitation | 05:57 |
| Senesence | desertc: Will do, as soon as they go back up - there seems to be a maintenance cycle going on. | 05:57 |
| Etherael | what's the best dvd player for linux? | 05:57 |
| desertc | hwilde: You might consider 64-bit, it's very good | 05:57 |
| desertc | Etherael: For encrypted or non-encrypted DVDs ? | 05:58 |
| genii | tiago: they will also give you guidance in #windows for this, hopefully. | 05:58 |
| Etherael | encrypted | 05:58 |
| hwilde | desertc, don't i need a 64bit cpu and motherboard for that? | 05:58 |
| desertc | Etherael: Do you live in the USA ? | 05:58 |
| Etherael | desertc: Nope. | 05:58 |
| nerdparty | The applet encountered a problem while loading "OAFIID:GNOME_NotificationAreaApplet" Do you want to delete the applet from your configuration | 05:58 |
| desertc | hwilde: Sorry, you're right. I guess you're stuck | 05:58 |
| DerangedDingo | Etherael: that's a tricky question, because some libraries.. that aren't legal i think, are required to run them | 05:58 |
| Goodmayonnaise | I'm trying to upgrade to 7.10 but I get a message: Failed to fetch http://quozl.netrek.org/pptp/php-gtk/Packages.gz 404 Not Found | 05:58 |
| desertc | Etherael: You can use Xine -- with configurations that I can't discuss. | 05:59 |
| Jordan_U | hwilde, Install 64 bit Ubuntu or install the "linux-server" package, I don't know if the proprietary GFX drivers work with the server version though | 05:59 |
| genii | Goodmayonnaise: That is not a standard ubuntu repository | 05:59 |
| DerangedDingo | Etherael: libdvdcss2 | 05:59 |
| Etherael | DerangedDingo: Already got the libs for totem and vlc, I can watch encrypted dvd's, I just wanted to know what the best player was, totem doesn't seem to use menus at all, and vlc is finicky with some titles. | 05:59 |
| drake | dumb question, how do you execute a pearl script? | 05:59 |
| desertc | Etherael: Totem will not work for ANY DVDs | 05:59 |
| genii | Goodmayonnaise: Comment out all non-standard repos and try again | 05:59 |
| desertc | None | 05:59 |
| Etherael | desertc: Xine, ok, thanks. | 05:59 |
| DerangedDingo | Etherael: I use VLC personally, but it's just out of laziness and the fact that I haven't found anything better | 05:59 |
| desertc | At all | 05:59 |
| hwilde | Jordan_U, my cpu and motherboard are not 64bit | 05:59 |
| n2diy | drake: perl? | 05:59 |
| Etherael | hmmm, well, whatever app it is that ubuntu starts by default when I put a dvd in. | 05:59 |
| Goodmayonnaise | genii: how do I do that? | 05:59 |
| nerdparty | I'm getting eight messages right now, they're all asking me to delete some applet or another. | 05:59 |
| clegane | drake, you have to set it as executable first: chmod u+x something.pl | 05:59 |
| nerdparty | What should I do? | 05:59 |
| Etherael | that works | 05:59 |
| Etherael | but it doesn't show menus | 06:00 |
| pheonixind | I prefere VLC | 06:00 |
| Etherael | just goes straight to the title | 06:00 |
| genii | !repo | 06:00 |
| ubotu | The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource | 06:00 |
| power78 | Does anyone know how to enable spdif on my audio card or where I can look to figure this out? | 06:00 |
| Etherael | and sometimes subtitles and such won't show up | 06:00 |
| Etherael | anyway, I'll check out xine. | 06:00 |
| clegane | drake, then, from the cmd line, $ ./something.pl | 06:00 |
| hwilde | desertc, so what exactly do you mean by <desertc> With a 32 bit address space you can have memory allocated up to 2^32 = 4,294,967,296 = 4GB. | 06:00 |
| Zippy2 | mplayer > vlc | 06:00 |
| drake | it is already executable | 06:00 |
| desertc | Etherael: Totem doesn't do menus or chapter selection (so you can only see one chapter at a time) and it doesn't show even numbed chapters. | 06:00 |
| desertc | hwilde: It's a hypothetical maximum | 06:01 |
| hwilde | desertc, so where is the 3G limit | 06:01 |
| clegane | drake, the $ is your prompt, you don't need to enter it | 06:01 |
| desertc | hwilde: I was mentioning it to the guy who wanted to know if he could use 12 GB in 64 bit | 06:01 |
| nerdparty | Can I reboot nautilis? | 06:01 |
| desertc | hwilde: 3.5 GB is the practical limit for 32bit | 06:01 |
| blackcurtain | soon after upgrading to gutsy, the preferences window in iceape either freezes or causes the program to crash | 06:01 |
| pheonixind | There has been some breakthrew on the 4GB ram areas for 32 bit OS's. All hacks tho. | 06:01 |
| desertc | nerdparty: ctrl-alt-backspace | 06:02 |
| Goodmayonnaise | all i do is click upgrade in the update manager | 06:02 |
| Gohan | well thanks for the help guys and gals, the download is taking a bit longer than i thought... so i shall see tomorrow | 06:02 |
| desertc | hwilde: you got ripped off if someone sold you 4 GB memory in a computer, I'm afraid | 06:03 |
| genii | !source-o-matic | Goodmayonnaise | 06:03 |
| ubotu | Goodmayonnaise: source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic | 06:03 |
| drake | how do i change into the superuser? | 06:03 |
| desertc | drake: you don't | 06:03 |
| pheonixind | sudo command | 06:03 |
| desertc | !sudo |drake | 06:03 |
| ubotu | drake: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information. | 06:03 |
| Etherael | can anyone give further info on exactly what the advantages of a 64bit system are? | 06:03 |
| hwilde | desertc, I will try running on just 2G and see if it is more stable then. | 06:03 |
| Zippy2 | Etherael: in freebsd 64bit uses more cpu optimizations. i dont know about linux | 06:03 |
| desertc | Etherael: same as 16-bit to 32-bit | 06:03 |
| desertc | hwilde: it's not a stability issue | 06:03 |
| Goodmayonnaise | thanks | 06:04 |
| Zippy2 | can someone confirm or deny in linux | 06:04 |
| pheonixind | More ram, better performance of some applications, and a few other things that I can tell. I use the x64 now as is Etheral | 06:04 |
| clegane | drake, 'sudo -i' at the prompt will elevate you to root permanently in that terminal, but it's usually just better to 'sudo command' | 06:04 |
| desertc | hwilde: it's just the computer can't read up to 4 GB, only 3.5 GB. But.. then, maybe it would cause problems, I don't know | 06:04 |
| nerdparty | desertc: I just restarted nautilis but it still isn't working, any advice? | 06:04 |
| hwilde | desertc, I have 2x2G dimms. If Ubuntu thinks there are only 3G it could cause problems | 06:04 |
| desertc | clegane: ugh - you're killing security | 06:04 |
| desertc | hwilde: maybe - I really don't know | 06:04 |
| n2diy | Zippy2: #linux-kernel may have your answer? | 06:04 |
| unfabled | desertc: thanks for your help yesterday, I'm officially using Gutsy Gibbon right now. ;) | 06:04 |
| desertc | hwilde: I haven't run 32-bit in years | 06:05 |
| clegane | desertc, ya, ya | 06:05 |
| Zippy2 | n2diy: too lazy, guess ill never know. thanks anyway | 06:05 |
| desertc | unfabled: you are the man!!! any trouble? | 06:05 |
| Etherael | Better performance? what causes that? | 06:05 |
| desertc | Etherael: who said better performance? | 06:05 |
| pheonixind | Zippy, the only probs with X64 is the graphics drivers that are proprietary dont all suppor desktop effects, but yes it seems to use more proc abilities. | 06:05 |
| unfabled | nah, not really. next up is getting my dual monitor setup to work, and everything i type seems sluggish. | 06:05 |
| === Andre_Gondim_ is now known as Andre_Gondim | ||

| Polygon89 | Hello, for some reason totem-xine is not playing xvid videos....in both ogg and mkv format...any suggestions on how to fix it? | 06:05 |
| bjron | hmm, seems I've lost my enable/disable desktop effects menu entry (or I'm just blind and not seeing it). Can someone confirm for me that I'm supposed to have such a thing (I swear it was there before)?? | 06:06 |
| Zippy2 | it doesnt even support xvmc | 06:06 |
| Etherael | desertc: Phenoixind | 06:06 |
| hwilde | desertc, you have not run into programs that are not supporting 64b ? | 06:06 |
| desertc | Etherael: It's not much better | 06:06 |
| desertc | hwilde: Never | 06:06 |

| Phuzion | Ok, I have a small problem | 06:06 |
| jif | bjron: where are you looking? | 06:06 |
| Zippy2 | isnt 64bit supposed to boost i/o a little | 06:06 |
| bjron | jif: system preferences and system>administration | 06:07 |
| Etherael | insofaras it is better at all, how is it better and by how much? | 06:07 |
| pheonixind | Desertc: well compared to the "alt" os, it performs alot better on the x64 arch. | 06:07 |
| Phuzion | I need to update to 7.10, but I'm going from 5.04. I'm doing the apt-get method, and apparently half the sources aren't any good anymore for 5.10 | 06:07 |
| drake | how do I use sudo to execute the vmwareserver install pearl script??? | 06:07 |
| desertc | Zippy2: I suppose it could... I think the programs run better - because you never use poorly written code that fails to compile with 32bit | 06:07 |
| hwilde | Phuzion, download the cd. | 06:07 |
| Phuzion | How do I get the sources that aren't any good anymore to work? | 06:07 |
| jif | bjron: system>preferences>appearance (gutsy, that is) | 06:07 |
| Phuzion | hwilde: And use that as a deb-cdrom? | 06:07 |
| desertc | pheonixind: Windows only emulates 64bit, from what I hear | 06:07 |
| hwilde | Phuzion, 5.04 -> 7.10 is a huge leap. download the 7.10 install cd | 06:07 |
| blackcurtain | does anyone know how to work preferences on iceape without the gui? | 06:08 |
| unfabled | anyone here use BitchX? does anyone even use it anymore? | 06:08 |
| Phuzion | hwilde: no cd burner handy | 06:08 |
| hwilde | !shipit | Phuzion | 06:08 |
| ubotu | Phuzion: shipit is a service that sends free Ubuntu, Kubuntu and Edubuntu CDs. See http://shipit.ubuntu.com/ and http://shipit.kubuntu.org and http://shipit.edubuntu.org - Shipit will send Gutsy (7.10) CDs | 06:08 |
| n2diy | drake: what is pearl? | 06:08 |
| desertc | unfabled: I needed to use "generic LCD monitor" configuration to get my dual monitors working | 06:08 |
| drake | .pl file | 06:08 |
| drake | pearl script | 06:08 |
| desertc | perl | 06:08 |
| bjron | jif: awe, damn, I am blind :D thanks (for some reason I was looking for an entry that said something about Effects) :P | 06:08 |
| Phuzion | hwilde: I know about shipit, but I'd like to get this system up and running by tomorrow or friday | 06:08 |
| preaction | drake, it's "Perl" | 06:08 |
| hwilde | drake, n2diy it is perl not pearl | 06:08 |
| drake | sorry about that | 06:08 |
| Jj | hey.. | 06:09 |
| drake | perl script | 06:09 |
| desertc | so pretty | 06:09 |
| n2diy | drake: then it is a perl file, not pearl. Asking the correct question will help. | 06:09 |
| unfabled | desertc: Oh? Hmm.. well I have two monitors that are the EXACT same model, maybe it's getting confused? | 06:09 |
| preaction | drake, sudo perl <script> | 06:09 |
| desertc | unfabled: mine too | 06:09 |
| Jj | where should i set my locale settings globally? | 06:09 |
| hwilde | Phuzion, go buy an external cd burner for like $50 | 06:09 |
| unfabled | desertc: I'll change my secondary montior to generic | 06:09 |
| n2diy | hwilde: I suspected that. | 06:09 |
| pramz | has anyone had issues setting up cups-pdf in gutsy ? | 06:09 |
| desertc | unfabled: good luck - mine started panning around when I did that | 06:09 |
| Phuzion | hwilde: I have a cdburner, it's just on my computer at school. this is for a computer I'm setting up at my house so I can ssh tunnel to home | 06:09 |
| Polygon89 | Hello, for some reason totem-xine is not playing xvid videos....in both ogg and mkv format...any suggestions on how to fix it? | 06:10 |
| hwilde | Phuzion, I hear you, but upgrading from 5.04 to 7.10 is going to take you FOREVER unless you burn a cd somehow. go to kinkos, or the library, or something | 06:10 |
| Amaranth | Polygon89: Is libxine1-extracodecs installed? | 06:10 |
| tiago | genii: hey mate, i just got back, fixmbr did'nt work from vista cd boot | 06:11 |
| tomlikestorock | how do I debug in anjuta? The debug menu isn't there... | 06:11 |
| unfabled | desertc: any suggestions for "sluggish" text when typing? To some people it wouldn't be considered slow, but as fast as I type, it bothers me. | 06:11 |
| pheonixind | polygon89: I am not aware of how to fix that. It has always played those on initial try for me. | 06:11 |
| unfabled | Phuzion, I'd even send you a CD. | 06:11 |
| unfabled | It'd cost me like $1 for media mail. | 06:11 |
| Zippy2 | unfal: use the console | 06:11 |
| tiago | genii: im running out of ideas, short of reinstalling vista, which i hoped wouldnt be an option | 06:11 |
| tomlikestorock | I've created a project, typed out a little hello world program, compiled and built it, executed it, but I can't debug it - I don't see the debug menu anywhere.. | 06:11 |
| Zippy2 | gdb | 06:12 |
| kalleskaviar | *sigh* while upgrading to gutsy and the installer tells me it wants to remove gnome-core, that's not a good sign, right ? | 06:12 |
| vansurabaya | #surabaya | 06:12 |
| Jj | hello? | 06:12 |
| Polygon89 | Amaranth, do you mean libxine1-plugins? | 06:12 |
| Amaranth | Polygon89: no | 06:12 |
| tomlikestorock | Zippy2: I'd like to use the ide | 06:12 |
| Jj | at what point at boottime does my locales get set? | 06:12 |
| Zippy2 | dont know | 06:12 |
| pheonixind | kalleskavair: It may need to so it can upgrade your Gnome | 06:12 |
| Polygon89 | Amaranth, then it does not exist in the gutsy repos | 06:12 |
| vansurabaya | loo | 06:12 |
| shadw | hi guys | 06:13 |
| genii | tiago: Well, due to the non-standard configuration you have this unfortunately looks to be the only option. They could not help you in #windows channel? | 06:13 |
| kalleskaviar | pheonixind, then it would be listed as upgrade, not remove. | 06:13 |
| Toma- | Is it at all possible to chroot from a 32bit env to a 64bit system? | 06:13 |
| bjron | oy, shame about the mem-leak in compiz :( | 06:13 |
| optiq | Hello, does anyone have any experience using pidgin-encryption plug in? My friends and I keep getting "requesting key..." messages | 06:13 |
| tiago | genii: ill try my luck | 06:13 |
| Amaranth | Polygon89: ah, they changed it to libxine1-ffmpeg, which you should have installed | 06:13 |
| Amaranth | Polygon89: just use totem-gstreamer, works better anyway | 06:13 |
| shadw | i've been looking through the forums for a fix for 'mp-bios bug: 8254' for my first ever 7.10 install but i can't seem to find a fix :( | 06:13 |
| setuid_w00t | I am trying to set a sane default for my keymap. I did dpkg-reconfigure console-data and it says it is installing the us keymap, but I think maybe I am actually using something else. My single quote is not working correctly for example. | 06:13 |
| pheonixind | kalleskavair: You have a very good point. | 06:14 |
| Polygon89 | Amaranth, totem-gstreamer does not play dvds | 06:14 |
| Tem | ugh! My mouse keeps freezing up, and I don't know why. Is there a way I can restart the driver? | 06:14 |
| Amaranth | Polygon89: it does, just not menus | 06:14 |
| drake | what is the difference between the vmplayer and vmserver on a desktop?? | 06:14 |
| Tem | I don't want to have to do a reboot every time this happens | 06:14 |
| pheonixind | kalleskavair: Do you have KDE or XFCE installed as well, or just gnome? | 06:14 |
| Polygon89 | Amaranth, yeah and watching episodes of house on DVD becomes very troublesome....but whatever. this worked fine in feisty...dunno why its phailing on gutsy. thx or your help anyway.. | 06:14 |
| setuid_w00t | I noticed that I have /etc/console/boottime.kmap.gz AS WELL AS /etc/console-setup/boottime.kmap.gz Can someone tell me what these are for? | 06:14 |
| kalleskaviar | pheonixind, might have fluxbox | 06:14 |
| bjron | Tem: well you probably don't have to reboot, you can probably just kill x (ctrl-alt-backspace) but that's not ideal either | 06:15 |
| Zippy2 | http://www.networkworld.com/news/2007/102407-storm-worm-security.html | 06:15 |
| n2diy | setuid_w00t: did you try looking around in ; system>prefrences>keyboard | 06:15 |
| pheonixind | kalleskavair: Then it does seem odd. Is there an option to keep gnome-core? | 06:15 |
| gogeta | drake vmplayer is a bit faster vmserver has more options like making diskimages | 06:16 |
| dmaresca | how the hell do i turn on 3d cube in Compiz-Fusion? | 06:16 |
| kalleskaviar | pheonixind, there is an option to skip removing any package. i'm taking my chances on that | 06:16 |
| dmaresca | itso n but how do i use it | 06:16 |
| Jordan_U | hwilde, Don't know if someone has already answered you yet, but to see all 4 GIG run "sudo apt-get install linux-server" | 06:16 |
| gogeta | drake both are free | 06:16 |
| drake | can both vmplayer and vmserver to used to install a windows vm? | 06:16 |
| unfabled | ANYONE have a good suggestion of where to go to get a good vhost script? I wanna setup one so I can have ident@mydomain.com on IRC | 06:16 |
| dmaresca | ? | 06:16 |
| pheonixind | kalleskavair: Awesome. I have never seen that before. Maybe it would be good to bug report it.. | 06:16 |
| gogeta | drake as long as you have a vmware diskimage then yes | 06:16 |
| niru | hi | 06:16 |
| shadw | anyone? I'm an ubuntu noob... this install error thing is making me sad | 06:16 |
| tiago | genii: i think i know why that fixmbr command didnt work, i didnt put a "/" behind it | 06:16 |
| tiago | ill try it again | 06:16 |
| niru | from where can i get ubiquity source | 06:17 |
| pheonixind | drake: Yes, both can run it | 06:17 |
| gogeta | drake oh and vmserver can boot a real partation | 06:17 |
| genii | tiago: I'll be here another 15 minutes then bedtime | 06:17 |
| drake | so I cannot just use the windows install CD to install windows on the VM? | 06:17 |
| unfabled | shadw: what's your prob? | 06:17 |
| setuid_w00t | n2diy: I am running kubuntu. The interesting thing is that the apostrophe key works in kde, but not on the console and not when I use a different window manager | 06:17 |
| kalleskaviar | pheonixind, nah it's probably just some meta-package i missed to reinstall before the upgrade. i really wish the upgrade scripts would check for those. | 06:17 |
| shadw | I get mp-bios bug 8254 happening here | 06:17 |
| gogeta | !kubuntu | 06:17 |
| ubotu | Kubuntu is Ubuntu with KDE, the K Desktop Environment, instead of Gnome. See http://kubuntu.org for more information - For support: #kubuntu - See also !KDE | 06:17 |
| pheonixind | drake: Yes, but it's a long process. | 06:17 |
| shadw | i see some solutions in the forum but have no idea how to edit strings or whatever | 06:17 |
| Tem | *sigh* apparently, if I wait long enough, my keyboard will stop working too | 06:18 |
| tiago | genii: thanks for you help tonight mate, ill try and work it out from here, have a good night | 06:18 |
| drake | ok so where can i get a windows XP vm image? | 06:18 |
| shadw | i can't seem to find anything in my bios about the acpi or w/e | 06:18 |
| Phuzion | So, is there any way I can download the cd image and install Ubuntu through that without having to burn it, maybe through the network? | 06:18 |
| unfabled | point me to the solution you saw on the forums | 06:18 |
| n2diy | setuid_w00t: very weird! You might take a look at the man page for loadkeys? | 06:18 |
| gogeta | drake you have to make one using vmserver | 06:18 |
| shadw | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=450748 | 06:18 |
| shadw | that's one | 06:18 |
| setuid_w00t | n2diy: I will take a look | 06:18 |
| genii | setuid_w00t: Interestingly the only reports of this happening I found by google said it was happening in KDE and not console, theirs worked if they hit shift key then hit the ' or " key a few times. Weird | 06:18 |
| shadw | something about editing menu.lst? | 06:19 |
| dmaresca | how do i turn on 3d cube in Compiz-Fusion or use it? It's enabled and stuff but what keypress does it?? | 06:19 |
| drake | so i use VMserver on my windows machine to make an image and then use vmplayer on ubuntu to run the image? | 06:19 |
| drake | and ihave a windows vm on ubuntu? | 06:19 |
| unfabled | ah. | 06:19 |
| unfabled | shadw: this is easy enough | 06:19 |
| genii | dmaresca: ctrl-alt then click-hold and spin with mouse | 06:19 |
| unfabled | shadw: you just need to know how to edit that file | 06:19 |
| shadw | yes :) | 06:19 |
| dmaresca | ah thanks/! | 06:19 |
| gogeta | drake well if its the same pc you can use vmserver to acully boot the windows partation | 06:19 |
| unfabled | shadw: Assuming you know how to get to the file do pico filename.ext | 06:20 |
| gogeta | drake with a cuplr config hack on xp | 06:20 |
| ccb0x45 | has anyone gotten a realtek 8151 based wifi card to work with 7.10??? | 06:20 |

| Atomic_UE | 06:20 | |
| shadw | i'm a noob... lol i can start from grub in recovery mode, is that where you mean to go? i can't boot into any OS at all | 06:20 |
| drake | gogeta, what if it is on a different pc? | 06:20 |
| pheonixind | ccb0x45: Have you tried ndiskwrapper? | 06:20 |
| gogeta | drake then it gets hard | 06:20 |
| RAdams | Can't get any videos to play in miro on Ubuntu 7.10... any ideas? They play in totem. | 06:21 |
| princex | can you boot from live cd ? | 06:21 |
| xTheGoat121x | Evening everyone | 06:21 |
| gogeta | drake best to just make a new one | 06:21 |
| unfabled | i mean get to a terminal.. ( #:) and cd to where that file is located | 06:21 |
| don-o | princex: yes, thats what 'live' means | 06:21 |
| csc` | RAdams: Miro is broken last i checked. i wouldnt recommend you use it | 06:21 |
| shadw | ah yes i'm in filename.ext | 06:21 |
| gogeta | drake or use vnc | 06:21 |
| ccb0x45 | pheonix, im trying ndiswrapper | 06:21 |
| gogeta | drake if you have both pcs going | 06:21 |
| unfabled | shadw: lol, don't take filename.ext literally | 06:21 |
| ccb0x45 | its not working with amd64 | 06:21 |
| ccb0x45 | or I dont know how to make it work | 06:22 |
| shadw | oh.. lol see, noob | 06:22 |
| unfabled | shadw: replace that with what you need to edit | 06:22 |
| princex | dur, sorry - was checking if shadw was able to boot live cd | 06:22 |
| shadw | yeh i can | 06:22 |
| ccb0x45 | has anyone set up ndiswrapper with amd64 on 7.10?? | 06:22 |
| don-o | princex: oh. LOL! sorry. | 06:22 |
| pheonixind | ccb0x45: And still a no go? The 64 version of ndiskwrapper is wonky. | 06:22 |
| ccb0x45 | pheonixind, I dont even know how to get the 64 bit version of ndiswrapper | 06:22 |
| ccb0x45 | or if I am using it or not? | 06:22 |
| ccb0x45 | how do I tell if I am using it | 06:23 |
| albech | still getting this error when trying to test my microphone: gconfaudiosrc ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink profile=chat: Could not open resource for writing. | 06:23 |
| pheonixind | ccb0x45: It will be in add/remove and it will auto get all the stuff you need, except for the driver. | 06:23 |
| shadw | so from the terminal, pico menu.lst? | 06:23 |
| thedefender | anyone with dual monitors recently install fglrx 8.42.3 driver succesfully | 06:23 |
| ccb0x45 | pheonix: it knows to get the 64 bit version | 06:23 |
| unfabled | yes, assuming you are in the location where menu.lst is located | 06:24 |
| drake | gogeta, please clarify. are you saying that the best way is to create a windows partition and then use vmserver to boot it? Using a normal VM, can you access the same files from ubuntu as the windows VM? | 06:24 |
| ccb0x45 | pheonix: when you say add remove do you mean the synaptic installer? | 06:24 |
| unfabled | you can change directories by using 'cd' | 06:24 |
| dmaresca | guys, i need a TightVNC Viewer app for Ubuntu, anyone know any??? | 06:24 |
| shadw | it's blank so i'm guessing no. i should boot to the live cd? | 06:24 |
| Zippy2 | dmaresca: tightvnc viewer? | 06:24 |
| RAdams | dmaresca: tightvnc | 06:24 |
| unfabled | shadw: i think its /boot/grub/menu.lst | 06:24 |
| dmaresca | tightvnc viewer not server | 06:24 |
| pheonixind | ccb0x45 No, under applications, the add/remove there | 06:24 |

| unfabled | actually you should be able to open the file without using su | 06:29 |
| unfabled | so just pico /boot/grub/menu.lst | 06:29 |
| DerangedDingo | libcurl and libxml-2.0 are mentioned in the configure script.. but i still dunno how | 06:30 |
| thedefender | anyone using the new FGLRX 8.42.3 | 06:30 |

| andresmujica | pathway: launchpad.net you need to open a n account (is easy really few steps), then you select projects, ubuntu, blueprints. These are the specs for the next release, look for the proposed specs if you find what you want to request, post you comment about it, if not you can make a spec.

| c0Ld | hmm, my screensaver crashed X :( | 06:32 |
| vega- | whats the difference between the -386 and -generic kernels in gutsy? any wiki doc on this? | 06:32 |
| thedefender | hmmm | 06:32 |
| thedefender | odd | 06:32 |
| lee986321 | eh how can I tell waht verson I loaded on to my PC? and question 2 is how do I get sunjava re 5.0 | 06:33 |
| vega- | seems -generic is tickless and smp-support, but this one doesn't boot on my machine, -386 does | 06:33 |
| vega- | lee986321: apt-get install sun-java5-jre | 06:34 |
| DerangedDingo | vega-: 386 is optimized for i386 architectures | 06:34 |
| DerangedDingo | vega-: (i'm guessing) | 06:34 |
| pheonixind | ccb0x45: Okay, it's called Windows Wireless Drivers | 06:34 |
| shadw | do i have to do anything special to save the edit? or just Exit out? | 06:34 |
| DanaG | -generic does smp. | 06:34 |
| Zippy2 | is generic 64bit/ | 06:34 |
| DerangedDingo | no | 06:34 |
| vega- | DerangedDingo: well, yea that's quite obvious :) | 06:34 |
| DanaG | i386 is like a safe-mode sort of thing. | 06:34 |
| DerangedDingo | generic should work on everything | 06:34 |

| emac_ | it just gets stucked | 06:50 |
| Zippy2 | stanmancan132: check /boot/grub/menu.lst and make sure windows is there before you reboot | 06:50 |

| fiveofoh | Zippy2: 3D? It's just for my external monitor that I have hooked up to my laptop | 06:53 |
| lee986321 | i hve used 5 mirrors which leads me to belive recorder failure may be eniment | 06:54 |
| Zippy2 | fiveofoh: same thing. i edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf manually | 06:54 |
| n2diy | DesiArnez6: I'm using Kppp, not gnome-ppp, and I jus start it from menu>internet>kppp. | 06:54 |

| fiveofoh | I use my laptop all over the place, but use my monitor when I'm at my desk, so I need to be able to switch quickly | 06:56 |
| fiveofoh | Odds are better than for my nick, I would guess | 06:56 |

| pheonixind | You got mythbuntu to work???? Awesome. | 06:58 |
| Excallibur | yeah | 06:58 |
| Gohan | evanlec: i have it and it does not work it says something about the x server | 06:58 |
| lee986321 | eh i am not sure how i did this but my 64 bit is running flash and java | 06:58 |
| Zippy2 | or ctrl-m | 06:58 |
| * fiveofoh needs to remember how to set up mythtv...I forgot what it means with the db error | 06:58 | |
| Excallibur | pheonixind: mythbuntu is totally functional minus the NIC card | 06:59 |
| lee986321 | this is totally new | 06:59 |
| Evanlec | Gohan, then your only choice is to install | 06:59 |
| wubuntu | hi, i can't change the size of my windows anymore. just maximize and minimze, but not manuel!does anybody can help me? | 06:59 |
| pheonixind | excallibur: It will not work for me, so no idea. sorry. | 06:59 |
| Gohan | evanlec: then how do i do that on a fully partioned xp drive? | 06:59 |
| Excallibur | pheonixind: well, the problem isn't myth, i got that all set | 06:59 |
| DesiArnez6 | n2diy: I can start it fine from the command line as sudo gnome-ppp, clicking on it only makes it connect and immediately connect, the only difference I perceive are sudo priviledge? | 06:59 |
| Evanlec | Gohan, the installer will let you resize your windows partition, or you can resize it within windows | 06:59 |
| Excallibur | pheonixind: the problem is that ubuntu isn't recognizing my NIC | 07:00 |
| pheonixind | Excallibur: What NIC do you have? | 07:00 |
| Gohan | evanlec, whats a good size for it? | 07:00 |
| maxxism | omg Gutsy is so nice. much better than feisty. I cant believe I have been using ubuntu since warty now. i am lovin the compiz fusion. the auto install nvidia drivers, still wish gftp and xchat were included on standard install. | 07:00 |
| zendo | Hi. How can I most easily upgrade from 7.04 to 7.10? | 07:00 |
| Evanlec | Gohan, how big is your drive? | 07:00 |
| n2diy | DesiArnez6: sounds normal to me, I have to enter a password when I select it from the menu. | 07:00 |
| Excallibur | pheonixind: oh man, its built into the mobo | 07:00 |
| Gohan | evanlec, 120gig | 07:01 |
| DesiArnez6 | phoenixind: So under properties i see group (myusername) access readonly, should that be read and write? However at the top it says I am the owner and read and write acces? Hmm | 07:01 |
| Excallibur | pheonixind: is there anything in the command line that would help me figure that out? | 07:01 |
| pheonixind | excallibur: Wow, hard to knwo then. Is it under the restricted drivers menue? | 07:01 |
| Evanlec | Gohan, i would say 20gig minimum, but i'd probly give it 40 or 60 | 07:01 |
| Zippy2 | you can do everything in command line | 07:01 |
| maxxism | zendo. let the software updater do it for you | 07:01 |
| Excallibur | pheonixind: i don't think so, i'll double check though | 07:01 |
| hwilde | What is the Ubuntu way to disable these bluetooth services? | 07:01 |
| zendo | maxxism: can you pleaste tell me how? | 07:02 |
| pheonixind | Desiarnez6: It is not there then, it will be under user permissions for group software. | 07:02 |
| zendo | maxxism: that is how to make it? | 07:02 |
| sudhanshu | c | 07:02 |
| Gohan | evanlec, so when i resize the partion then the information will be safe right? not that there is much on there due to it being a fesh reinstall | 07:02 |
| AmyRose | Is there a way to force OpenOffice.org to use the autohinter instead of that horrible bytecode interpreter for font rendering? I'm thinking there isn't because everybody on the OO.o dev team seems to unanimously agree that the bytecode interpreter is the greatest thing since pre-sliced bread >.> | 07:02 |
| DesiArnez6 | n2diy: Hmm, If you mean my ISP access password, yeah, I always enter that, but sudo password, this is new, I havent needed it for PPP since May when I made the Ubuntu switch | 07:02 |
| pheonixind | Does anyone remember where the user group permissions are easily found? | 07:02 |
| maxxism | zendo. http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading | 07:02 |
| Evanlec | Gohan, yea, it'll be fine | 07:02 |
| maxxism | zendo it works great | 07:03 |
| hwilde | pheonixind, /etc/group(s) | 07:03 |
| Zippy2 | whats a user group perm | 07:03 |
| Gohan | evanlec, thanks ill go try that | 07:03 |
| Excallibur | pheonixind: no it isn't under the restricted drivers menu | 07:03 |
| zendo | maxxism: thanks man, I'll try that :) | 07:03 |
| pheonixind | hwilde: Awesome, you rock. | 07:03 |
| Zippy2 | oh group membership | 07:04 |
| pheonixind | Excallibur: The distro may not have a driver for the nic then. =( | 07:04 |
| hwilde | pheonixind, you will probably ask next for /etc/passwd | 07:04 |
| Excallibur | pheonixind: is it possible to get the driver from somewhere? | 07:04 |
| hwilde | How to disable bluetoothd-service-input and bluetoothd-service-audio (installed and running by default in 7.10) ? | 07:04 |
| pabs3 | who do I notify about http://planet.ubuntu.com/rss20.xml containing invalid XML? | 07:04 |
| n2diy | DesiArnez6: hmmm, not sure then, I just tried it, and I wasn't prompted for a password, and kppp has my ISP password stored, so I'm not sure what has happened? Sounds like a permission problem? | 07:05 |
| pheonixind | Excallibur: May be able too. May have to google it. | 07:05 |
| Excallibur | pheonixind: i have a regular gusty desktop disk here, the nic works with that disk, can i pull it from there somehow? | 07:05 |
| Excallibur | pheonixind: i'm not sure what to google for | 07:05 |
| DesiArnez6 | n2diy: That what Im thinking too, but Im not too advanced, so Im trying to figure it out I guess ;) | 07:05 |
| pheonixind | Excallibur: You may be able too, but I have never had to do that before so I dont know much about that. | 07:06 |
| fiveofoh | ooh | 07:06 |
| Excallibur | pheonixind: well thanks for the advice, i appreciate it | 07:06 |
| * fiveofoh sets up compiz hotkeys for switching between his screens...sooo excited!! | 07:06 | |

| Zippy2 | bullgard4: if you check powertop's web site, i think they say that gnome power manager has a problem where itwakes up the cpu from sleep too much | 07:15 |
| Zippy2 | stanmancan132: is this in grub? | 07:15 |
| DesiArnez6 | phoenixind: Hmm perhaps this is the problem? I dont see PPP or gnome-ppp I do already have priviliges for modem use. | 07:16 |
| stanmancan132 | But if I hit "Enter" on "Start or Install Ubuntu" nothing happens | 07:16 |

| Zippy2 | for me | 07:48 |
| Zippy2 | need_helpz: sudo mount /dev/whatever /mnt or whatever | 07:48 |
| nickrud | bullgard4: and clicking dependencies is illuminating also | 07:48 |

| hwilde_ | JenFraggle, so take out the other resolutions and just put in the one you want to run and it wont have a choice | 07:49 |
| need_helpz | so it puzzles me | 07:49 |
| need_helpz | im on a live disk | 07:49 |

| need_helpz | an ubuntu update messed up my current install | 07:49 |
| need_helpz | i need to backup some things | 07:49 |

| xonicx | WARNING: Could not open '/lib/modules/2.6.22-14-generic/kernel/sound/acore/snd-page-alloc.ko': No such file or directory | 07:49 |
| xonicx | any idea how to fix this? | 07:49 |
| Zippy2 | Magdin: theres something on google for it im sure | 07:49 |
| need_helpz | and the live disk detects but does not mount the storage device | 07:49 |
| Zippy2 | xonicx: they dont like you pasting huge/many lines in the channel. you need to reinstall/compile your sound modules. theyre broken | 07:50 |
| Magdin | Zippy2: i tried to googled it without success. | 07:50 |
| Zippy2 | try depmod -a as root first and modprobe again | 07:50 |

| Magdin | Zippy2: i bet you not! 4:50 in sydney, time starts now :) | 07:51 |
| nickrud | xonicx: that will reinstall all the kernel modules back to normal state | 07:51 |
| n2diy | mohkohn: yes, you should have function key options that tell you how, at the boot prompt. | 07:51 |
| Zippy2 | Magdin: i did it already | 07:51 |
| Jordan_U | hwilde, Did you ever disable compiz? | 07:51 |

| Doomguy0505 | How can you choose not to install compiz with ubuntu? My hard drive is at 1.9 gb right now | 07:51 |
| hwilde_ | JenFraggle, you should make a backup of the file and if it doesn't work hit CTRL+ALT+F1 to go to terminal and restore | 07:51 |
| gogeta | hwilde_ most lockups are due to cmpiz | 07:51 |
| Magdin | and? | 07:51 |

| need_helpz | usb-storage is not even a binary | 08:01 |
| PwcrLinux | nick, okay smile | 08:01 |
| JenFraggle | hwilde: i upgraded yesterday and my screen has been pants ever since. | 08:01 |
| Jordan_U | Anybody have a fresh install of Gutsy and willing to assist me in an incredibly stupid idea? :) | 08:01 |
| hwilde | Tem, try installing a different window manager. I had that problem but now with icewm it is stable (atleast for the last hour) | 08:01 |
| Zippy2 | need_helpz: what is it | 08:01 |
| Magdin | Zippy2: thanks a lot mate, my problem has gone! | 08:01 |
| need_helpz | Zippy2: what is what? | 08:01 |
| Zippy2 | Magdin: good | 08:01 |
| Tem | hwilde: bug.... I like gnome | 08:01 |
| Zippy2 | need_helpz: what is usb-storage if its not a binary | 08:01 |
| Tem | but* | 08:01 |
| r0b- | PwcrLinux what disto u run? | 08:01 |
| Vov4ik[ubuntu] | Zippy2: ftp://192.168.1.102 << not works too | 08:02 |
| n2diy | Jordan_U: no, but I like to hear stupid ideas!? | 08:02 |
| PwcrLinux | nick, I uses manually to set a atomic synched in the date/clock settings. | 08:02 |
| hwilde | Tem, me too but I am trying to isolate the error | 08:02 |
| xonicx | due to some reason my sound card(couldntIntel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family))get configured while ubuntu 7.10 installation. How do i configure my sound card? | 08:02 |
| Vov4ik[ubuntu] | Zippy2: *doesn't works | 08:02 |
| PwcrLinux | R0b, Breezy | 08:02 |
| dev7 | bogor | 08:02 |
| Zippy2 | Vov4ik[ubuntu]: did you try ftping with ftp? if it works with ftp it should work with everything else | 08:02 |
| r0b- | :o | 08:02 |
| r0b- | thats OLD! | 08:02 |
| Zippy2 | maybe its trying to use passive mode or something and thats failing | 08:02 |
| r0b- | upgrade :) | 08:02 |
| user__ | What codecs do I need in Kubuntu gutsy for kaffiene to play .flv files? | 08:02 |
| McOwnage | what do you mean !lampp ? | 08:02 |
| Jordan_U | n2diy, Have you already heard about my incredibly borked apt? | 08:02 |
| need_helpz | Zippy2: no clue i did `find` and i see module, unbind, etc.. but not a usb-storage binary | 08:02 |
| PwcrLinux | R0b, yea, I better wait till the HD died.. | 08:02 |
| Vov4ik[ubuntu] | Zippy2: | 08:02 |
| Vov4ik[ubuntu] | user@ubuntu:/home/eggdrop1.6.18$ ftp localhost | 08:02 |
| Vov4ik[ubuntu] | Connected to localhost. | 08:02 |
| Vov4ik[ubuntu] | ..... | 08:02 |
| r0b- | ? | 08:02 |
| nickrud | PwcrLinux: you'd set up ntp, I have an empty file for that config and don't off-hand know what breezy did, I moved on over a year and a half ago | 08:02 |
| Zippy2 | Vov4ik[ubuntu]: does it ask for a username? | 08:03 |
| Vov4ik[ubuntu] | yes | 08:03 |
| Zippy2 | Vov4ik[ubuntu]: did you login successfluly as anonymous or ftp | 08:03 |
| hwilde | Tem, I like gnome too, I am just trying to isolate where is the problem. I think it is metacity and compiz fusion. I logged in and started a full screen game with full 3d graphics and played for awhile, but simply dragging a window around real fast can crash the window manager. | 08:03 |
| PwcrLinux | Nick, yea.. I saw ntp.conf just empty | 08:03 |
| Zippy2 | maybe anonymous ftp is disabled | 08:03 |
| JimmyDee | Jordan_U, define borked apt | 08:03 |
| Zippy2 | did you tryi t with a username? | 08:03 |
| hwilde | JenFraggle, pastebin your xorg.conf file | 08:03 |
| n2diy | Jordan_U: Not reallly, the servers may be overloaded? I'm running 6.06 so I haven't run apt-get in months. | 08:03 |
| Zippy2 | that is not anonymous | 08:03 |
| EvilAIM | Wow, this got complex. haha | 08:03 |
| hwilde | JenFraggle, I can't believe that going back to feisty would fix this | 08:03 |
| hwilde | !downgrade | JenFraggle | 08:03 |
| ubotu | JenFraggle: Attempting to downgrade to an older Ubuntu version is explicitly not supported, and may break your system. | 08:03 |
| nickrud | PwcrLinux: you can get a sync at startup using /etc/default/ntpdate | 08:03 |
| Zippy2 | need_helpz: i dont know | 08:03 |
| need_helpz | :( | 08:04 |
| Zippy2 | need_helpz: is the hard drive broken? | 08:04 |
| PwcrLinux | nick, let me check | 08:04 |
| xonicx | Zippy2: sudo modprobe snd-hda-intel returns wihtout error but alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device | 08:04 |
| JenFraggle | i would clean install | 08:04 |
| Vov4ik[ubuntu] | Zippy2: what's password is for anonymouse ? | 08:04 |
| Jordan_U | JimmyDee, n2diy For example, apt thinks that there is no installation candidate for the package "dpkg", yes I have my sources.list setup correctly :) | 08:04 |
| hwilde | Jordan_U, how can I get pure gnome without metacity or compiz ? | 08:04 |
| Zippy2 | Vov4ik[ubuntu]: anonymous is disabled by default. use a user in /etc/passwd | 08:04 |
| Zippy2 | not root either | 08:04 |
| hwilde | JenFraggle, does the livecd display in the correct resolution | 08:04 |
| EvilAIM | Wow, this irssi is boss | 08:04 |
| JimmyDee | Jordan_U, I heard this earlier, try sudo apt-get install dpkg-* | 08:04 |
| nickrud | PwcrLinux: to be honest, I let ubuntu take care of that. Haven't had to configure time server on my machine since warty | 08:05 |
| JenFraggle | haven't got a gutsy disc to try | 08:05 |
| McOwnage | what do you mean !lampp ? | 08:05 |
| Zippy2 | xonicx: modprobe snd-mixer-oss? | 08:05 |
| JenFraggle | http://pastebin.ca/748868 | 08:05 |
| Vov4ik[ubuntu] | Zippy2: logged in as user successfully | 08:05 |
| hwilde | JenFraggle, how did you upgrade then... oh | 08:05 |
| Zippy2 | oops snd_mixer_oss | 08:05 |
| user__ | What do I need to do to play .flv in Kubuntu gutsy? | 08:05 |
| Jordan_U | hwilde, You can't have gnome without a window manager, simplest thing to do would be to have "yourWMofchoice --replace" as a session startup | 08:05 |
| PwcrLinux | Nick, Yep, it's there.. ntp.ubuntulinux.org | 08:05 |
| Zippy2 | Vov4ik[ubuntu]: so thats why ftp:// doesnt work. its trying anonymous and there is no anonymous user. you need to do ftp://user@ip | 08:05 |
| Doomguy0505 | Oh yay, repositories are broken | 08:05 |
| hwilde | Jordan_U, how do I make it gnome and not metacity by default | 08:05 |
| Zippy2 | Doomguy0505: use another repository | 08:06 |
| Vov4ik[ubuntu] | Zippy2: okay, i'll try it | 08:06 |
| xonicx | rakesh@rakesh-laptop:~$ sudo modprobe snd-mixer-oss | 08:06 |
| xonicx | rakesh@rakesh-laptop:~$ alsamixer | 08:06 |
| xonicx | alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device | 08:06 |
| PwcrLinux | Nick, pool string on the default commented out | 08:06 |
| Zippy2 | draconius: underscore not dash | 08:06 |

| Zippy2 | oops xonics | 08:06 |
| Zippy2 | xonicx | 08:06 |
| Svish | hm | 08:06 |
| nickrud | PwcrLinux: in gutsy its ntp.ubuntu.com | 08:06 |
| hwilde | JenFraggle, umm those @ signs are not right hold on | 08:06 |
| Vov4ik[ubuntu] | Zippy2: it works! thank you! =( | 08:06 |
| Vov4ik[ubuntu] | Zippy2: * =) | 08:06 |
| Svish | How can I access the connected servers on my desktop through the terminal? | 08:06 |
| nickrud | PwcrLinux: but you really ought to upgrade to dapper | 08:06 |
| JimmyDee | Jordan_U, any luck? | 08:07 |
| Zippy2 | Vov4ik[ubuntu]: na zdroviyah or something | 08:07 |
| PwcrLinux | nick, maybe I could add 2nd time server.. | 08:07 |
| Vov4ik[ubuntu] | Zippy2: >> na zdorovje << =) | 08:07 |
| Zippy2 | :) | 08:07 |
| Vov4ik[ubuntu] | Zippy2: okay :) | 08:07 |
| fbn | how can I send a message to another logged in user on a linux box? | 08:07 |
| Zippy2 | write | 08:07 |
| Jordan_U | JimmyDee, How is that supposed to fix anything? I don't want to run it and risk borking dpkg as well | 08:07 |
| JimmyDee | Jordan_U, it wont install anything without you saying yes | 08:08 |
| hwilde | JenFraggle, that whole file is messed up the secions at the bottom that say Section "device" # that needs to be filled in | 08:08 |
| Zippy2 | swirv: ? | 08:08 |
| EvilAIM | My question is: is there anyway to remove the border from the console/terminal? I'm using X and gnome in ubuntu fiesty. | 08:08 |
| Zippy2 | swish | 08:08 |
| PwcrLinux | brb | 08:08 |
| fbn | Zippy2: thx | 08:08 |
| EvilAIM | I just want to remove the top bit and everything around the window. | 08:08 |
| Jordan_U | JimmyDee, I know, I'm booting now to try it | 08:08 |
| * Tem screams in frustration | 08:09 | |
| Zippy2 | EViLGiMp: probably in gnome settings | 08:09 |
| Tem | I just want my damned mouse to work | 08:09 |
| JenFraggle | i have to go to work now, will you be around in approx 10 hours? | 08:09 |
| johnn1 | Plugs ears. | 08:09 |
| Zippy2 | evilaim | 08:09 |
| thedefender | anyone know if you can use Direct Rendering dual heads using the new FGLRX | 08:09 |
| EvilAIM | gimp? | 08:09 |
| EvilAIM | hehe | 08:09 |
| EvilAIM | Where are the gnome settings? | 08:09 |
| corrupt | i'm getting and error when i try to start ubuntu, when GRUB begins loading it get error 17 | 08:09 |
| Jordan_U | JimmyDee, Just gives me dependency errors | 08:09 |
| Zippy2 | gnome-control-center? | 08:09 |
| corrupt | any ideas on what my problem is and how to correct it? | 08:09 |
| * Doomguy0505 screams in absolute frustration, but the software channels still won't update | 08:09 | |
| hwilde | JenFraggle, try the command at the top of the file "sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg" and it will build you a correct file | 08:09 |
| JimmyDee | Jordan_U, hrm, its borked alright | 08:10 |
| PwcrLinux | back | 08:10 |
| JimmyDee | Jordan_U, it doesnt try to give you dpkg-dev or anything? | 08:10 |
| JenFraggle | I've saved a transcript as I'm just shutting down. thanks for the help, i'll try when i get in from work | 08:10 |
| Zippy2 | who has dpkg problems | 08:10 |
| Jordan_U | JimmyDee, How is dpkg-dev going to help me? | 08:10 |
| Zippy2 | download a tgz, unpack in / and download a dpkg deb and dpkg -i it | 08:11 |
| hwilde | Jordan_U, I missed your problem what started all of this | 08:11 |
| Jordan_U | Zippy2, I am having the dpkg problems, and they are much more complicated than that :) | 08:11 |
| JimmyDee | Jordan_U, I'm just asking is it trying to give you dpkg-anything | 08:11 |
| Zippy2 | Jordan_U: reinstall | 08:11 |
| McOwnage | hwilde what do you mean !lampp | 08:11 |
| hwilde | !lampp | 08:12 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about lampp - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 08:12 |

| Layer8 | hello all! | 08:13 |

| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about mainline java - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 08:14 |
| Jordan_U | hwilde, Nothing, it's just apt that's borkd | 08:14 |
| EvilAIM | This entire OS is bitchin'. | 08:14 |
| xonicx | rakesh@rakesh-laptop:~$ sudo modprobe snd_mixer_oss | 08:14 |

| mohkohn | After working with slackware for the last two hours I have come to the conclusion I can best use it to download ubuntu and burn the iso to a cd. | 08:14 |
| mohkohn | Then install ubuntu of course :) | 08:15 |
| JimmyDee | mohkohn, you go guy | 08:15 |
| Jordan_U | xonicx, Why are you loading an OSS module then trying to use an ALSA mixer? | 08:15 |
| hwilde | Jordan_U, I'm going to try to get back into gnome... | 08:15 |
| Zippy2 | xonicx: apt-get install oss-compat | 08:15 |
| Doomguy0505 | Bah! Damn you update 23! | 08:15 |
| PwcrLinux | PCM works on sound | 08:15 |
| faLUCE | hi. maybe a difficoult question: is it possible to know since how many hours is a process active? | 08:15 |
| Zippy2 | faLUCE: ps -axuww | 08:15 |
| Zippy2 | it's argument 9 | 08:16 |
| xonicx | sorry. I have always used alsa. Install oss-compact now. How to start mixer? | 08:16 |
| Zippy2 | ps -axuww|awk '{print $9}' | 08:16 |
| fiveofoh | Hey, does anyone know what the config file for GNOME keybindings is? | 08:16 |
| eizo | ist hier auch einer der Deutsch spricht ? | 08:16 |
| JimmyDee | xonicx, google oss-mixer | 08:16 |
| Zippy2 | yeah that oss probably didnt do anything | 08:16 |
| Zippy2 | uninstall it. i use it for mpg123 | 08:16 |
| macogw | anyone noticed that gutsy + flash + gran paradiso = sound that's doubled (like you hear everything twice like when people sing a song in a round) and the sound doesn't stop after you close whatever tab the Flash video is playing in? | 08:16 |
| fiveofoh | I want to be able to switch between two sets of keybindings via a shell script | 08:16 |
| fdr | Hi! How do I use sound-juicer to make mp3 from a cd? I asked !mp3 to ubotu but I couldn't find the information on those links. Thank you! | 08:16 |
| Zippy2 | xonicx: ls -al /dev/mixer*. anything? | 08:16 |
| macogw | fdr: install ubuntu-restricted-extras | 08:17 |
| n2diy | Jordan_U: Did you get an answer? I had to step out for a little bit. I "think" apt-get uses dpkg, so maybe it can't upgrade itself? | 08:17 |
| DarkMorph | a friend says logging in as root fails but sudo works, any ideas? | 08:17 |
| macogw | n2diy: it does, but it can | 08:17 |
| xonicx | rakesh@rakesh-laptop:~$ ls -al /dev/mixer* | 08:17 |
| xonicx | ls: /dev/mixer*: No such file or directory | 08:17 |
| Zippy2 | DarkX: make him a user account and add him to sudoers | 08:17 |
| Doomguy0505 | This must have to be the most frustrating ubuntu upgrade... ever | 08:17 |
| faLUCE | Zippy2: but where can i specify the name of the process? | 08:17 |
| DarkX | huh wut | 08:17 |
| n2diy | macogw: roger that, thanks. | 08:17 |
| JimmyDee | DarkMorph, logging in at the gui? or console? | 08:17 |
| macogw | DarkMorph: there is no root on ubuntu | 08:17 |
| fiveofoh | Doomguy0505: I am soooo pleased with gutsy | 08:17 |
| DarkMorph | both terminal and virtual terminal | 08:17 |
| fiveofoh | It's been a welcome upgrade for me | 08:17 |
| Zippy2 | faLUCE: ps -axuww|grep processname and then look | 08:17 |
| TL_CLD_ | Hey all. New to Ubuntu, trying to get Evolution to work with my .ics calendars located on a SMB share. Is this possible? I can't seem to figure out how to get to them. | 08:18 |
| DarkMorph | su - fails and true root login fails | 08:18 |
| DarkMorph | wtf no root? | 08:18 |
| JimmyDee | macogw, type sudo su root and see who you are | 08:18 |
| Jordan_U | n2diy, No, it can. For some reason apt has lost it but dpkg is fine.... my crazy idea is to try to install ubuntu-desktop using only dpkg :) | 08:18 |
| Tem | you can get root if you go down to runlevel 1... | 08:18 |
| Tem | but that's about it | 08:18 |
| Doomguy0505 | Well for some reason the software channels cannot upgrade | 08:18 |
| macogw | JimmyDee: that doesnt make the account any less locked | 08:18 |
| alveola | хай | 08:18 |
| faLUCE | thnks Zippy2 | 08:18 |
| EvilAIM | dark. Don't use su, use sudo | 08:18 |
| DarkMorph | wait why O_o | 08:18 |
| chris_ | einen schönen guten morgen | 08:18 |
| chris_ | ^^ | 08:18 |
| Zippy2 | xonicx: dpkg-reconfigure -phigh alsa-base? | 08:18 |
| macogw | DarkMorph: that account is locked. if you were trying to crack a linux box, you *know* the user you want is called "root" right? so you just brute force the password. this way, they have to know your username AND your password | 08:18 |
| DarkMorph | no I'm on gentoo it's my friend on ubuntu | 08:18 |
| fiveofoh | Anyone - ketbindings config file? | 08:18 |
| Zippy2 | wait | 08:18 |
| fiveofoh | *keybindings | 08:18 |
| Doomguy0505 | Heh, I didn't notice in my anger | 08:18 |
| Zippy2 | doesnt work | 08:19 |
| DarkMorph | so sudo everything then.. | 08:19 |
| hwilde | Jordan_U, Tem, if you kill metacity from the command and replace it, you will see error messages. Maybe this is why it is freezing: "$ metacity --replace | 08:19 |
| hwilde | Window manager warning: Received a _NET_WM_MOVERESIZE message for 0x2400004 (System Mon); these messages lack timestamps and therefore suck." | 08:19 |
| thedefender | anyone know about enabling Direct Rendering on ATI FLGRX for dual heads. | 08:19 |
| macogw | DarkMorph: exactly | 08:19 |
| DarkMorph | ok that would work thanks guys | 08:19 |
| n2diy | Jordan_U: Get real! :) If dpkg is munged, your done. | 08:19 |
| chris_ | kann mir jemand kurz einige fragen beantworten. | 08:19 |

| xonicx | asoundconf is there. | 08:21 |
| JimmyDee | Cryx, did you sudo edit it? | 08:21 |
| macogw | thedefender: yes there is. they make bad drivers (on any os), and their linux ones are even worse than their windows ones | 08:21 |
| Zippy2 | kuzmaster: it's free | 08:21 |
| Cryx | no, edited as a root | 08:21 |
| macogw | Zippy2: oh there's two different ways to use ps | 08:21 |
| hwilde | Tem, you will :) try moving a window around real fast | 08:21 |
| Jordan_U | n2diy, Yes, that is why I know that trying to install all of ubuntu-desktop without a package manager is insane... but I am going to do it anyway :) | 08:21 |
| Tem | hwilde: with what mouse? =P | 08:21 |
| thedefender | macogw: well you get what you pay for | 08:21 |
| brad__ | hey everybody | 08:22 |
| brad__ | Stanley132 here | 08:22 |
| xonicx | rakesh@rakesh-laptop:/dev$ sudo MAKEDEV mixer | 08:22 |
| xonicx | udev active, devices will be created in /dev/.static/dev/ | 08:22 |
| xonicx | /sbin/MAKEDEV: don't know how to make device "mixer" | 08:22 |
| Zippy2 | xonicx: try that | 08:22 |
| n2diy | Jordan_U: OK!!!!!! GL | 08:22 |
| Zippy2 | asoundconf? | 08:22 |
| brad__ | Zippy2: I'm done installing Ubuntu now, having some problems with my graphics though | 08:22 |
| thedefender | anyone here got Direct Rendering to work on dual heads with FGLRX | 08:22 |
| JimmyDee | brad__, define some problems | 08:22 |
| Zippy2 | /etc/init.d/alsa force-unload? then start it? | 08:22 |
| hwilde | Tem, I apt-get removed metacity and compiz and then reinsstalled metacity. it seems ok now, but if I move a window around real fast i get those errors | 08:22 |
| macogw | thedefender: if you mean "because you dont pay for linux" please note that these are drivers that *ati* makes, not ones that are made by the open source community. the open source drivers for their old cards are *very* good. their binary fglrx ones are crap. they recently (yesterday?) released some that use AIGLX and therefore should work as well for compositing as nvidia or intel do | 08:23 |
| n2diy | Jordan_U: Wait, have you tried Synaptic? | 08:23 |
| brad__ | I have a geforce 7950 GT KO and I'm running dual 19" lcd monitors. I can't get them to both work properly. | 08:23 |
| JimmyDee | Jordan_U, or aptitude? | 08:23 |
| brad__ | I would like it to be 1024x768 with a horizontal span | 08:23 |
| Jordan_U | n2diy, Yes, it's just a front end for apt, as is aptitude, neither deals with dpkg directly :( | 08:23 |
| Zippy2 | is apt-get becoming deprecated for aptitude | 08:23 |
| hwilde | brad__, sudo nivida-settings | 08:24 |
| Doomguy0505 | Do you have to use the alternate cd to do a cd upgrade? | 08:24 |
| Jordan_U | Zippy2, That is not possible :) | 08:24 |
| Zippy2 | doesnt aptitude have super cow powers or something | 08:24 |
| Layer8 | can I get a monitor running which is plugged in during a session?? | 08:24 |
| Jordan_U | Zippy2, That's apt | 08:24 |
| Layer8 | does noone know about that?! | 08:24 |
| fiveofoh | Layer8: Yes | 08:24 |
| hwilde | !alternate | Doomguy0505 | 08:24 |
| ubotu | Doomguy0505: The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD - See also !Minimal | 08:24 |
| Zippy2 | o of course | 08:24 |
| fiveofoh | Layer8: xrandr is your friend | 08:24 |
| xonicx | rakesh@rakesh-laptop:/dev$ asoundconf list | 08:24 |
| xonicx | Names of available sound cards: | 08:24 |
| thedefender | macogw: thats the reason i am trying to use the binary now | 08:24 |
| macogw | Zippy2: apt-get now behaves like aptitude in regards to "recommends"...er well not "now" but in december in debian sid, it will switch | 08:24 |
| JimmyDee | !super moocow powers | 08:24 |
| Tem | I'm gonna try another reboot to attempt to hold onto my mouse long enough to test this >< | 08:24 |
| fiveofoh | If you're running Gutsy | 08:24 |
| xonicx | i am afraid i dont have sound card driver installed | 08:24 |
| Zippy2 | xonicx: run as root | 08:24 |
| jotil | umm i can't find xserver-xconf | 08:24 |
| n2diy | Jordan_U: JimmyDee, or, delete your apt/cache directory, and try again? | 08:24 |
| hwilde | Layer8, monitors are traditionally not PlugNPlay devices... | 08:24 |
| fiveofoh | Layer8: Are you registered? | 08:24 |
| xonicx | rakesh@rakesh-laptop:/dev$ sudo asoundconf list | 08:25 |
| xonicx | Please note that you are attempting to run asoundconf as a privileged superuser, which may have unintended consequences. | 08:25 |
| xonicx | Names of available sound cards: | 08:25 |
| thedefender | macowgw: want a cube on each monitor | 08:25 |
| macogw | thedefender: huh? i just said their binary fglrx are crap and their open source ones are great. the open source ones don't work for newer cards though. | 08:25 |
| Layer8 | fiveofoh: i know about that tool...but what if the monitor is plugged in while X is running? | 08:25 |
| macogw | thedefender: the aiglx ones they just released are *not* in ubuntu | 08:25 |
| Doomguy0505 | So I can't use the LiveCD for an offline upgrade? | 08:25 |
| fiveofoh | Layer8: Hmm I don't know, I would think it would work | 08:25 |
| macogw | Doomguy0505: no, you need the alternate cd | 08:25 |
| Layer8 | fiveofoh: xrandr is just for changing the rotation / res | 08:25 |
| fiveofoh | But I'm not sure, you could try :D | 08:25 |
| Zippy2 | i dont know xon | 08:25 |
| brad__ | it's telilng me to Restart the X server, how do i do that | 08:25 |
| brad__ | ? | 08:25 |
| Zippy2 | brad__: logout | 08:25 |
| jotil | when i do dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xconf, it says the package is missing and i can't apt-get it either. | 08:25 |
| brad__ | k | 08:25 |
| brad__ | brb | 08:25 |
| brad__ | thanks | 08:25 |
| Gohan | Ok so i started installing gutsy via the text loader and it started saying that it could not find files (//cdrom/pool/XXX) | 08:26 |
| fiveofoh | Layer8: No, the new version of xrandr (in Gutsy) can change screens and all kinds of fancy whizbang | 08:26 |
| macogw | jotil: it's xserver-xorg | 08:26 |
| JimmyDee | brad__, ctrl - alt - backspace | 08:26 |
| Gohan | Any thoughts? | 08:26 |
| Layer8 | brad__: contr + alt + backspace | 08:26 |
| Zippy2 | doesnt logging out restart the xorg servre? | 08:26 |
| Zippy2 | gdm respawns right? | 08:26 |
| macogw | Zippy2: depends on if you set it to do that or not | 08:26 |
| n2diy | Zippy2: yes | 08:26 |
| Zippy2 | ok | 08:26 |
| jotil | macogw: thanks | 08:26 |
| fiveofoh | Layer8: xrandr --output VGA --mode 1280x960 --output LVDS --off | 08:26 |
| Zippy2 | thought so | 08:26 |
| JimmyDee | gohan, shut off the cd rom line in /etc/apt/sources.list | 08:26 |
| thedefender | macogw: i know, i just installed the new drivers, the are running fine and i have dual heads up but i have no Direct Rendering at the moment and after i fix that need to figure out how to allow DirectRendering on both monitors | 08:26 |
| macogw | Zippy2: yes, gdm (usually) respawns...sometimes it doesn't....race condition maybe | 08:26 |
| fiveofoh | Will switch to the ext monitor, I haven't tried with it being plugged in during the session tho | 08:27 |
| fiveofoh | It's worth a try | 08:27 |
| macogw | thedefender: ahh ok. um is dri enabled in modules? | 08:27 |
| Zippy2 | is ctrl-alt-bs considered safe? | 08:27 |
| Gohan | jimmydee, im super new to linux in general... i dont know how to do that | 08:27 |
| macogw | Zippy2: yes, it's how you restart the X server | 08:27 |
| thedefender | macogw:checking | 08:27 |
| fiveofoh | thedefender: one big cube vs. individual cubes is controlled in the adv. settings manager | 08:27 |
| fiveofoh | It's an option in the cube plugin | 08:27 |
| Zippy2 | macogw: its a terminate command, not shutdown, right? | 08:27 |
| macogw | fiveofoh: he has no compositing | 08:27 |
| fiveofoh | Wait, then how does he do a cube? | 08:27 |
| macogw | Zippy2: what? ctrl alt bksp restarts X. ctrl alt del twice restarts the system | 08:28 |
| macogw | fiveofoh: he cant yet. that's teh problem | 08:28 |
| UTD_Zac | So I'm having trouble getting my nvidia drivers to work. I just learned how to shutdown X, now i need to know how to actually install the drivers, someone said to use apt-get? I'm very new to linux. | 08:28 |
| Zippy2 | does it term or kill? | 08:28 |
| Tem | *sigh* | 08:28 |
| fiveofoh | Ahh, well once you get compositing figured out, that's how you do it ;) | 08:28 |
| thedefender | macogw: its weird, there is nothing in my modules section of the xorg | 08:28 |
| macogw | Zippy2: kill i think | 08:28 |
| brad__ | When I do the sudo nvidia-settings I get a pop up message that says "You do not appear to be using the Nvidia x driver. Please configure your X configuration file ( 'just run nvidia-xconfig as root) and restart the X server" | 08:28 |
| JimmyDee | Zippy2, ctrl-alt-delete 8-10 times makes you a windows user | 08:28 |
| Zippy2 | thought so | 08:28 |
| Tem | it took all of 3 minutes this time, but my mouse still froze | 08:28 |
| fiveofoh | Layer8: Have you tried xrandr? | 08:28 |
| Jordan_U | UTD_Zac, System -> Administration -> Restricted Driver Manager | 08:28 |
| thedefender | macogw: just says Section "Module" EndSection | 08:28 |
| macogw | thedefender: ah well yes that's a problem | 08:28 |
| brad__ | So i go sudo nvidia-xconfig and it says it's switched, then i log out and log back in and try sudo nvidia-settings and it gives me the same error | 08:29 |
| Layer8 | fiveofoh: yes - xrandr sees the monitot | 08:29 |
| Layer8 | monitor | 08:29 |
| johnn1 | Where is the list of shortcut keys. | 08:29 |
| Layer8 | fiveofoh: is there a graphical tool for gnome? | 08:29 |
| fiveofoh | Layer8: Not that I know of | 08:29 |
| UTD_Zac | Jordan_U: Is that all? It's Enabled and set to "In Use"... | 08:29 |
| JimmyDee | Gohan, sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list then about the 3rd or 4th line down is one that says cdrom in it, give it a # at the beginning of that line and save, then do your thing | 08:29 |
| macogw | thedefender: wait wtf. i dont have a modules section in mine at all in gutsy...ok i need to explore the new xorg | 08:29 |
| fiveofoh | If I knew gnome, I would write one...I might try anyway | 08:29 |
| Jordan_U | UTD_Zac, That's all :) | 08:29 |
| fiveofoh | "Screens and Graphics" is crap | 08:29 |
| Tem | is there a command to restart the driver on my usb devices? | 08:30 |
| Tem | or even better, just one device? | 08:30 |
| macogw | thedefender: ok idk sorry. things changed since feisty | 08:30 |
| thedefender | macogw: i followed the recently made howto exactly, but i did have my second monitor hooked up and i know ubuntu automatically starts mergedFB and clones when a second is detected so i think that might be an issue | 08:30 |
| macogw | thedefender: idk i only have one screen | 08:31 |
| Gohan | jimmydee, im trying to install. Linux is not on my computer. Currently i have a FRESH install of xp with 1200mb allocated to it on a fat system. When trying to install linux on the rest of the drive i have this issue | 08:31 |
| brad__ | Who helped me before with the nvidia drivers??/ | 08:31 |
| JimmyDee | Gohan, youre installing off a cd you burned? | 08:31 |
| fiveofoh | thedefender: What's the question? I have dual screens...but I'm mostly using xrandr | 08:31 |
| simplechat | hey, i'm trying to get gmail working with evolution (atm i'm on kde with ubuntu), i'm trying imap (imap has been enabled in my account), however whenever i try i get a MAP command failed: [ALERT] Invalid credentials (Failure) | 08:32 |
| hwilde | ok it is definitely metacity that is freezing my system. I can spike the cpu just by dragging a window around real fast. | 08:32 |
| Zippy2 | if my xrandr says tmds-1 is disconnected, does that mean i have a dvi port? | 08:32 |
| simplechat | Even though i am using my correct password | 08:32 |
| Gohan | jimmydee, yeah burned the iso about an hour ago | 08:32 |
| brad__ | Need some help here getting my Nvidia drivers working, | 08:32 |
| UTD_Zac | How do I update something in the Synaptic Package Manager? The only options I see is to INSTALL or REMOVAL | 08:32 |
| simplechat | i've tried both pop and imap | 08:32 |
| xonicx | Tthanks Zippy. I just wanted to see how friendly ubuntu 7.10 is. let me tell you little bit of history. I downloaded whole 4.3 GB of ubuntu 7.10 but didnt check the md5sum before burning. that was the mistake i did. I started installing ubuntu and created a seperate partition with the help of installer. But due to some missing package. install aborted and it didnt install grub. So my windows also gone. I booted with CD again and choose to install "only com | 08:32 |
| xonicx | 1. Installer should must install grub if it has affected windows boot partition. | 08:32 |
| xonicx | 2. Where is sound card configurator? | 08:32 |
| simplechat | neither works | 08:32 |
| JimmyDee | Gohan, try verifying it with the utility at the opening menu, betcha its roached | 08:32 |
| hwilde | Jordan_U, Tem, my machine survived for an hour in icewm, and I can play full screen graphics on dual monitors and the graphics card is fine. but the default metacity... it doesn't survive at all | 08:33 |
| Zippy2 | xonicx: windows is gone or you just cant boot it? | 08:33 |
| Gohan | jimmydee, i did the check disk thing and it returned no errors | 08:33 |
| macogw | xonicx: 4.3GB? it's only like 690MB | 08:33 |
| xonicx | i was not able to boot in windows. | 08:33 |
| macogw | xonicx: that doesnt make it gone | 08:33 |
| Zippy2 | xonicx: whats the error | 08:33 |
| xonicx | i downloaded ubuntu dvd | 08:33 |
| JimmyDee | Gohan, if its not finding the pool...methinks its bad | 08:33 |
| macogw | xonicx: "boot from first hard drive" on the ubuntu cd or a Super Grub Disk will get you into it, i think | 08:33 |
| macogw | xonicx: there's also reinstalling NT LDR from the windows install disk | 08:34 |
| fiveofoh | Layer8: I lied, grandr | 08:34 |
| fiveofoh | It's in synaptic | 08:34 |
| * fiveofoh cries tears of happiness | 08:34 | |
| Gohan | jimmydee, this will be the 3rd 7.o disk i have burned and none of them work. WTF? what am i doing wrong? | 08:34 |
| fiveofoh | Layer8: Although I've setup hotkeys via compiz to switch between laptop and external monitor | 08:34 |
| UTD_Zac | Burn slower speed | 08:34 |
| Gohan | what program thats free? | 08:35 |
| JimmyDee | Gohan, dunno man, are they all throwing the same error, or new and interesting ones? | 08:35 |
| xonicx | thats okay. These things are there for nerds who knows things. i wanted a linux system so command line was okay for me. what about normal users who wanted to install ubuntu. They cant recover from boot failure and wont try ubuntu again. | 08:35 |
| Etherael | so, I have a crappy old machine I have been fiddling about with ubuntu on, I have gotten it where I want it in terms of applications etc, and now I want to install ubuntu on a better computer, question is, can I somehow use the list of apps on this old computer to direct the new computer what to install? | 08:35 |
| thedefender | fiveofoh: i just installed the new binaries from ATI, followed this howtohttp://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=575843, now X booted fine but i have no direct rendering. I have two heads running, one vga, one dvi, need to know howto allow both screens to use Directrendering. I am basically trying to allow desktop effects on both screens | 08:35 |
| johnn1 | Exactly..burning @ slower speeds validizes the burn | 08:35 |
| pina | holy mother of god | 08:35 |
| pina | 1246 users?~!?! | 08:35 |
| thedefender | pina: Welcome to Ubuntu | 08:35 |
| k1gw1 | So it's essentially not possible to have two videocards and three monitors in ubuntu, huh? | 08:35 |
| JimmyDee | Etherael, why not rsync it to the new box as is? | 08:35 |
| Zippy2 | xonicx: thats why they buy it with a new dell pc | 08:35 |
| Gohan | jimmydee, different ones... first it just would not load, then i got command strings, now with the txt loader it starts to install and then starts with the no file crap | 08:35 |
| brad__ | Zippy2: How do I get the Nvidia drivers working for my Geforce 7950 GT KO | 08:35 |
| pina | that is just crazy | 08:35 |
| Etherael | JimmyDee: The entire disk? | 08:35 |

| ubotu | pina: Welcome to #ubuntu - the Ubuntu support channel. | 08:35 |
| fiveofoh | Aghhh | 08:35 |
| Zippy2 | brad__: something about restricted drivers | 08:35 |
| JimmyDee | Etherael, its an idea | 08:35 |
| pina | thsanks | 08:36 |
| fiveofoh | grandr is being annoying and running away :( | 08:36 |
| JimmyDee | Gohan, maybe the cdrom in the machine is flaky? | 08:36 |
| brad__ | Can somebody _please_ help me in setting up nvidia drivers? | 08:36 |
| xonicx | But its better to check for at least grub before partioning the hard disk. system will not become unusable for normal user if install fails. | 08:36 |
| Etherael | JimmyDee: When critical libs were being written over though, wouldn't that kind of hose the new system? | 08:36 |
| Gohan | i just loaded my priate ver of xp from it and i burned same ver of xp with it? | 08:36 |
| thedefender | brad_ :whats up | 08:36 |
| brad__ | I can't change any settings on my screen resolutions and stuff right now | 08:37 |
| JimmyDee | Etherael, rsync it to a directory then chroot to the dir? | 08:37 |
| Zippy2 | my gf wanted linux because a friend told her about it. i told her not to | 08:37 |
| k1gw1 | brad__: what happened when you went to the restricted drivers manager? | 08:37 |
| JimmyDee | Etherael, its not my best idea I've ever had but I've done it | 08:37 |
| thedefender | brad_: are you using the restricted nvidia drivers or open | 08:37 |
| brad__ | thedefender: I have dual monitors off of my GeForce 7950 Gt KO | 08:37 |
| Vov4ik[ubuntu] | i can move directory /lalala from /etc to /home, if in home be folder /lalala | 08:38 |
| Vov4ik[ubuntu] | ? | 08:38 |
| Etherael | JimmyDee: and then copy from the chroot to the version outside chroot? Surely there's some sort of ghosting utility in linux somewhere, that would be easier, no? | 08:38 |
| brad__ | klgwl: How do i get into the restricted drivers manager? | 08:38 |
| Zippy2 | Vov4ik[ubuntu]: you can do whatever you want | 08:38 |
| brad__ | klgwl: Sorry, I found it | 08:38 |
| fiveofoh | brad__: System->Admin->Restricted Drivers Manager | 08:38 |
| fiveofoh | or nm | 08:38 |
| JimmyDee | Etherael, I just forgot about the version outside the chroot | 08:38 |
| Vov4ik[ubuntu] | unable to remove target: Is a directory | 08:38 |

| brad__ | klgwl: It says Nvidia accelerated graphics driver (latest cards) and says it is enabled and in use | 08:39 |
| Tem | back to windows with me | 08:39 |
| Tem | :( | 08:39 |
| hwilde | Tem, alternate window manager! | 08:39 |
| JimmyDee | Tem, dont go back to the dark side | 08:39 |
| hwilde | Tem, or just install gnome-desktop and use that! | 08:39 |
| Gohan | well thanks guys im going to sleep now its taking to long | 08:39 |
| JimmyDee | Tem, sudo apt-get install gnome | 08:39 |

| viviersf | ah wrong person | 08:40 |
| Zippy2 | gui | 08:40 |
| Vov4ik[ubuntu] | what? | 08:40 |

| faLUCE | hi. maybe a difficoult question: is it possible to know since how many hours is a process active? | 08:41 |
| xonicx | another issue with live cd: Live CD detected that i need to use nvidia restricted driver for desktop effects. when i ried to install restricted driver, it asked for reboot.if i reboot, whole thing will be gone. so my point is how will i come to know to if restricted driver works on my system or not. | 08:41 |
| Etherael | ghost4linux | 08:41 |
| hwilde | Tem, it is metacity. install gnome and try it works fine! | 08:41 |

| Zippy2 | Vov4ik[ubuntu]: sudo cp -avpuR scripts /root/eggdrop and then rm -rf scripts | 08:43 |
| Etherael | actually apparently that's fraught with peril and I just had a way better idea, I'll setup the disks and then untar the OS from dodgy old machine to good new machine via ssh right onto the new disk, then just rerun grub install and it should be all good. | 08:43 |
| Zippy2 | if you want to delete the original | 08:43 |
| Vov4ik[ubuntu] | Zippy2: i copied some scripts with ftp to desktop, and i need to move it to /root/eggdrop.. thank you. | 08:43 |
| JimmyDee | Etherael, that should work | 08:43 |
| hwilde | Etherael, if you are going to do that skip the tar and just use dd | 08:43 |
| BernardB | How can I configure Firefox so, that it'll not open every media file with Totem? | 08:43 |
| Gorlist | Hi | 08:44 |
| Gorlist | quick question on 7.10 | 08:44 |
| Zippy2 | BernardB: gnome default application | 08:44 |
| Gorlist | I was going to do a fresh install of Ubuntu, and go from 7.4 64bit to 7.10 32bit | 08:44 |
| BernardB | Zippy2: What do you mean? | 08:44 |
| Vov4ik[ubuntu] | Zippy2: user@ubuntu:/root/eggdrop$ sudo cp -avpuR scripts /root/eggdrop | 08:44 |
| Vov4ik[ubuntu] | cp: `scripts' and `/root/eggdrop/scripts' are the same file | 08:44 |
| Zippy2 | BernardB: gnome ontrolcenter | 08:44 |
| Gorlist | is 7.10 working fine? and will my Evolution emails folder work fine if I copy over to new install? | 08:45 |
| Zippy2 | Vov4ik[ubuntu]: its copied | 08:45 |
| corrupt | how do i fix a grub error 17 problem? ubuntu won't start... | 08:45 |
| hwilde | Vov4ik[ubuntu], you are in /root/eggdrop so you have to copy it somewhere else like /home | 08:45 |
| BernardB | Zippy2: Where can I find it? | 08:45 |
| Vov4ik[ubuntu] | Zippy2: yeap? | 08:45 |
| Vov4ik[ubuntu] | ohh | 08:45 |
| Zippy2 | BernardB: gnome menus under settings or something | 08:45 |
| Vov4ik[ubuntu] | Zippy2: doesn't copied | 08:45 |
| Vov4ik[ubuntu] | x( | 08:45 |
| hwilde | Vov4ik[ubuntu], type in "pwd" to see what directory you are in | 08:45 |
| faLUCE | Zippy2: it's not me who has to look to the start time, it's the system. | 08:45 |
| Vov4ik[ubuntu] | hwilde: i have gui (graphical mode) | 08:45 |
| musikgoat | Gorlist: 7.10 is working great, I believe evolution shouldn't have a problem as long as you copy your home folder | 08:45 |
| Zippy2 | faLUCE: why | 08:46 |
| hwilde | Vov4ik[ubuntu], man cp | 08:46 |
| Gorlist | musikgoat: Excellent, thanks :) | 08:46 |
| BernardB | Zippy2: Can't find it :( | 08:46 |
| Zippy2 | Vov4ik[ubuntu]: is there a scripts dir in /root/eggdrop/scripts | 08:46 |
| faLUCE | Zippy2: i need to make a script which terminates a process if it's active since 5 hours | 08:46 |
| Zippy2 | BernardB: youll have to. i dont use gnome | 08:46 |
| BernardB | O, that's why. | 08:47 |
| Vov4ik[ubuntu] | Zippy2: yes.. i want to copy all content from ~/Desktop/eggdrop/scripts to /root/eggdrop/scripts | 08:47 |
| Zippy2 | faLUCE: do you start it the same time? | 08:47 |
| Layer8 | fiveofoh: does grandr work for you | 08:47 |
| Layer8 | ? | 08:47 |
| cyber_ | Vov4ik[ubuntu]: why dont you just "sudo nautilus" and then copy it across manually? | 08:47 |
| hwilde | faLUCE, ps -e -o"pid etime" read in the intput. if $2 is > 5hours kill $1 | 08:47 |
| Zippy2 | sudo cp -avpuR ~/Desktop/eggdrop/scripts/* /root/eggdrop/scripts | 08:47 |
| Zippy2 | assuming /root/eggdrop/scripts is a directory | 08:47 |
| Vov4ik[ubuntu] | hmm | 08:48 |
| JimmyDee | faLUCE and if you wanna be slick stick that in cron | 08:48 |
| brad__ | got it going i believe kind of. | 08:48 |
| brad__ | wait, no, it's still cloned | 08:48 |
| Layer8 | fiveofoh: when I start it and click on one of the detected monitors at the left the programm produces a segfault | 08:48 |
| brad__ | I have both monitors running in 1280x1024 now but they are both set as "plug and play" monitors which i don't mind, and it's not spanned it's cloned | 08:49 |
| fiveofoh | Layer8: Yeah, that's what I found out :/ | 08:49 |
| Vov4ik[ubuntu] | Zippy2: thank you, it's copied successfully | 08:49 |

| Romme | where do i get some documentation on network routing? | 09:04 |
| thedefender | seamus7: 8.42 is suppose to support AIGLX | 09:04 |
| wingless_kat | I want to be able to put other os's on the machine | 09:04 |
| xonicx | wingless_kat: ubuntu installer creates/resize partition | 09:04 |
| wingless_kat | i see | 09:05 |
| smmagic | If you resize windows | 09:05 |
| arooni | how do i connect a bluetooth headset to my gutsy machine (with a bluetake usb adapter)? i currently see the little bluetooth icon. how do i go searching for my headset once i put it in discoverable mode? | 09:05 |

| wingless_kat | i if i say, Guided use entire disk, i'll be able to go back later and put another OS on...? | 09:05 |
| JimmyDee | wingless_kat, may I suggest you install your windows partition first then resize it, grub will detect it and menufy it | 09:05 |
| thedefender | ipx: are you, i installed and i am having problems with getting Direct Rendering online | 09:05 |
| wingless_kat | i want to play around with Linux.. | 09:05 |
| thedefender | ipx: what vcard | 09:06 |

| smmagic | You could try wubi | 09:06 |
| wingless_kat | and i want to be able to have all my information on one partition that i can access from both distros | 09:06 |
| thedefender | !wubi | 09:06 |
| seamus7 | thedefender: oh ok that explains it ... I'm just gonna wait and hope it gets in the repos eventually ... yeah I read that it supports AIGLX so I thought that would be cool .. but after I received errors I just got frustrated and realized I wasn't displease with my laptop's graphic performance .. so I'll just wait :) good luck with dri | 09:06 |
| ubotu | wubi is an unofficial Ubuntu installer for Windows users - more info is at http://www.cutlersoftware.com/ubuntusetup/wubi/en-US/index.html | 09:06 |
| k1gw1 | What's GrumpyGroundhog all about? | 09:06 |

| ipx | thedefender: im in a very big hurry, but i assume it says "LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT" in your glxinfo grep render, just type "unset LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT" in the terminal and it should say yes | 09:07 |
| ipx | sorry i have to go now | 09:07 |

| wingless_kat | Can i get a quck double check: if i use guided -use entire disk, i can install other os's onto my machine later | 09:07 |
| smmagic | Yes | 09:07 |

| wingless_kat | but ok. | 09:07 |
| smmagic | If you make partitions for them | 09:07 |
| thedefender | ipx: how do i set that | 09:07 |
| ipx | tonyyarusso: well at least ive heard that all cards are supposed to support it.. | 09:07 |

| lilmissrocket | hi there jimmydee | 09:41 |
| lilmissrocket | I'm back for more torture | 09:41 |
| JimmyDee | Butch, simple as reading | 09:41 |
| brad__ | JimmyDee: I'm getting the same old error again now Jimmy,,,, "Unable to remove old X config backup file '/etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup'." | 09:41 |
| JimmyDee | brad__, did you try running the nvidia thing with gksu? | 09:42 |
| Butch | jimmydee, okey, i will try that. thanks. | 09:42 |
| brad__ | JimmyDee: No, Whats GKSU? | 09:42 |
| ce_jomlo | hyyy | 09:42 |
| brad__ | JimmyDee: I ran Envy | 09:42 |
| lilmissrocket | Back with another question, of course - I'm still having trouble figuring out my wpa protocols.... | 09:42 |
| ce_jomlo | hy... | 09:42 |
| elninja | I installed the linux-rt kernel, but now I can't get my wireless to work again. I have a broadcom chipset, and was using ndiswrapper | 09:42 |
| musikgoat | hmm simplechat i just noticed that the username that I used in TB was not fully qualified | 09:43 |
| JimmyDee | brad__, open terminal type gksu, then itll pop a box, run as root it says, then put the nvidia prog's name in the box and off to the races | 09:43 |
| musikgoat | simplechat: try dropping the @gmail.com | 09:43 |
| lilmissrocket | Looked up to see if there was a driver for my Realtek 8150, and it should be native to the linux kernel accroding to the site | 09:43 |
| lilmissrocket | At this point, I really don't think it could be anything but a bug.....? | 09:43 |
| brad__ | JimmyDee: That worked, now I guess I hve to reboot? | 09:44 |
| JimmyDee | brad thats my guess | 09:44 |
| simplechat | musikgoat, tb? | 09:44 |
| simplechat | musikgoat, trying now | 09:44 |
| JimmyDee | lilmissrocket, is your card on the wpa supplicant list? | 09:44 |
| kantor | hi,how can I put the trash to the desktop (not using a launcher )? | 09:44 |
| lilmissrocket | Where is the list again so I can check, please? | 09:44 |
| JimmyDee | google linux wpa supplicant | 09:45 |
| lilmissrocket | brb | 09:45 |
| etale | hi all--if I'm about to do a sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade, can i delete every file in my /boot first? | 09:45 |
| dstadulis | I am having trouble running ./configure on a program I am trying to compile. It says that it needs openssl but my package manager says that openssl is installed any sugjestions? | 09:45 |
| lilmissrocket | jimmydee: only with ndiswrapper, looks like | 09:46 |
| JimmyDee | lilmissrocket, well there you are | 09:46 |
| simplechat | musikgoat, ok, now it says Fetching mail ... | 09:46 |
| JimmyDee | lilmissrocket, its ndiswrapper for you | 09:46 |
| lilmissrocket | which I suppose brings me to my next problem, I never did quite figure out how to get that sucker working | 09:46 |
| musikgoat | dstadulis: try openssl-dev ? | 09:46 |
| simplechat | musikgoat, i have 800mb of stored mail, is it going to get it all? | 09:46 |
| mao42 | dstadulis: Make sure you have the dev version installed | 09:46 |
| musikgoat | i don't see why not | 09:46 |
| simplechat | that would take about three days to download | 09:46 |
| musikgoat | good to see that was the problem | 09:47 |
| musikgoat | you can set it to only get new mail | 09:47 |
| lilmissrocket | nah, it only took me two to get 5. someodd gigs downloaded via torren | 09:47 |
| musikgoat | in gmail preferences | 09:47 |
| brad__ | IT WORKS!!! FINALLY IT WORKS!!!!! | 09:47 |
| lilmissrocket | hooray! | 09:47 |
| JimmyDee | brad__, *bow* | 09:47 |
| brad__ | JimmyDee: THANK YOU!! | 09:48 |
| brad__ | JimmyDee: My last question would be, right now i would like my left monitor to be the "main" screen, that has all the menu's ect. is that possible? | 09:48 |
| brad__ | JimmyDee: the wrong screen is being labeled as the main one.. ? | 09:48 |
| lilmissrocket | jimmydee: can you recommend me a good place to figure out how to get ndiswrapper working? I'm trying to do it according for my "for dummies" book and....well.....it's not working. | 09:48 |
| dstadulis | musikgoat mao42: installing libssl-dev fixed it | 09:48 |
| dstadulis | ty | 09:49 |
| musikgoat | cool | 09:49 |

| Flynsarmy | Is there a way to get a confirmation popup when pressing the delete key on a file rather than just sending it straigh to the bin? | 10:28 |
| fyrestrtr | Flynsarmy: if you shift+delete it will ask for confirmation, but that's because shift+delete bypasses the bin. | 10:29 |
| JimmyDee | Bryan_, or a script that has that in it | 10:29 |
| Bryan_ | going to see if that works :o | 10:30 |
| Flynsarmy | fyrestrtr: I'd prefer to always get the confirmation popup when pressing teh delete key just so i don't tap it accidentally and not realise | 10:30 |
| roxlu | were can i get the ubuntu 7.1 live cd? | 10:30 |
| fyrestrtr | !download | roxlu | 10:31 |
| ubotu | roxlu: Ubuntu installation CDs can be downloaded from http://nl.releases.ubuntu.com - Mirrors can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Archive - PLEASE use the !torrents to download Gutsy, and help keeping the servers' load low! | 10:31 |
| JimmyDee | Flynsarmy, remove the delete key so you gotta poke your finger way down in there to make it work | 10:31 |
| tonyyarusso | roxlu: a) It's 7.10, not 7.1, b) ubuntu.com, go to download | 10:31 |

| tonyyarusso | roxlu: Then don't check the box that says "Check here if you need the alternate desktop CD. This CD does not include the Live CD, instead it uses a text-based installer." this time | 10:33 |
| JimmyDee | omgoose, have you installed build-essential? | 10:33 |
| ePirate | hey, do you need antivirus software in ubuntu? | 10:34 |
| tonyyarusso | !virus | ePirate | 10:34 |
| ubotu | ePirate: A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21 | 10:34 |
| inversekinetix | JimmyDee it didnt modify the registry, the installer looks for files to update (which arent there) then kills wine | 10:34 |
| roxlu | tonyyarusso: I'm now downloading the desktop edition from : http://nl.releases.ubuntu.com/7.10/ | 10:34 |
| tonyyarusso | roxlu: that works too | 10:34 |
| mohkohn_ | Well it looks like slackware has enabled me to bittorrent the ubuntu alternate install. | 10:34 |
| Flynsarmy | Also one real annoying thing about linux is there are no useful firewalls with allow/deny popups for when a program tries to access the internet | 10:34 |
| JimmyDee | inversekinetix, hurm, try www.winehq.org | 10:34 |
| mohkohn_ | Burning now and should (hopefully) have gutsy working soon. | 10:35 |
| tonyyarusso | !firewall | Flynsarmy | 10:35 |
| ubotu | Flynsarmy: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE). | 10:35 |

| fyrestrtr | bgc: yes | 10:35 |

| hwilde | my system can survive for hours in icewm, but in the default gutsy install it freezes and is very unstable. | 10:35 |
| hwilde | I am very unhappy with this upgrade | 10:36 |
| tonyyarusso | hwilde: what kind of specs? | 10:36 |
| fyrestrtr | hwilde: try a clean install. | 10:36 |
| hwilde | fyrestrtr, it is a clean install. | 10:36 |

| fyrestrtr | thought you said an upgrade? | 10:36 |
| tonyyarusso | hwilde: Gnome is _much_ heavier than IceWM, so that's not a very even comparison. | 10:37 |
| Vov4ik[ubuntu] | I have installed open ssl, but console says: SSL-Support: No openssl found. Get openssl at www.openssl.org. PLEASE HELP! | 10:37 |

I am, however, running a core2duo 6600. Because it specifies AMD should I run the x86 version instead? | 10:37 |
| bgc | ok, I managed to get my rt61 card to work under feisty using some workaround i found on the web (I'm new to all this). When upgrading to gutsy it stopped working. I tried same workaround: nothing. I tried downloading drivers and using iwpriv command, and it gives me an error for the 'set' command. I triend uninstalling network-manager and using wicd instead, and still nothing. I use WPA, but even without it it still doesn't work, and I even struggle to get wired c | 10:37 |
| schbirid | fyrestrtr: "my two adapters show "roaming" in that network-manager thing and i can't do anything with them, not even disable one" :\ | 10:37 |
| hwilde | tonyyarusso, heaviness doesn't matter, kde runs fine, full screen graphical 3d games run fine, default gutsy install freezes. | 10:37 |
| JimmyDee | Vov4ik[ubuntu], you doing a compile when this happens? | 10:37 |
| bgc | Is my installation now so messed up that the only solution is to do a fresh install all over again? I would like to avoid if possible... | 10:37 |
| Flynsarmy | Is there ANY firewall that does for ubuntu? | 10:37 |
| fyrestrtr | Navilor: you need the i386 iso | 10:37 |
| hwilde | schbirid, ifconfig [adapter] down will disable. then man iwconfig to see how to set the wireless params | 10:37 |
| schbirid | hwilde: ok, thanks | 10:37 |
| hwilde | !firewall | Flynsarmy | 10:38 |
| ubotu | Flynsarmy: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE). | 10:38 |
| fyrestrtr | schbirid: can you scan for wifi networks? | 10:38 |
| === zaggy-nl_ is now known as zaggy-nl | ||
| tonyyarusso | hwilde: on any particular thing? Have you checked for bugs? | 10:38 |
| wubuntu | hi, i have some problems with synchronizing my nokia e65 with evolution. i don't know which settings i must set on my handy and in multisync. can you help me? | 10:38 |
| miffe | Vov4ik[ubuntu], have you installed libssl-dev to? | 10:38 |
| aisi | Navilor, amd64 is just historical naming | 10:38 |
| Navilor | Thank you. I'll use that one. Is there any way, post install, to update the packages to 64bit? | 10:38 |
| schbirid | fyrestrtr: nope, nothing. they just say "roaming" | 10:38 |
| abhibera | !mount | 10:38 |
| Vov4ik[ubuntu] | no ;( | 10:38 |
| ubotu | Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted (also "man mkfs" for formatting) - Mounting partitions in Gnome under Dapper: System -> Administration -> Disks - For Edgy, see !fstab and !DiskMounter | 10:38 |
| hwilde | tonyyarusso, the window manager freezes. I can spike the cpu if I just drag a window around real fast | 10:38 |
| bullgard4 | fyrestrtr: The image you sent me is very small. I can barely discern that your version has 6 clumns. But mine has 7. The additional column apparently is the one I was asking about. -- So I suppose you cannot help me any more. | 10:38 |
| abhibera | !mount | 10:38 |
| Navilor | Thank you aisi. | 10:38 |
| fyrestrtr | bullgard4: its a thumbnail, it should be clickable? | 10:38 |
| JimmyDee | Navilor, nope its all or nothing | 10:38 |
| kbrooks | Flynsarmy, no. but it's certainly possible, with some more coding work. may i explain, in simplified terms, what kind of work is required? | 10:38 |
| Flynsarmy | hwilde: Someone already sent that and it's really unhelpful. The inbuilt ubuntu one doesn't have the popups | 10:38 |
| echodep | Hi, can anyone help with a Hostap/ Gutsy problem? | 10:39 |
| tonyyarusso | hwilde: Ah. Try disabling desktop effects. (System > Prefs > Appearance > Far right tab) | 10:39 |
| fyrestrtr | bullgard4: try this > http://img85.imageshack.us/img85/6183/screenshotmx4.png | 10:39 |
| aisi | Navilor, I am running the 'amd64' version on my core2duo t7500 laptop | 10:39 |
| Navilor | Next question. I'm running the 680i chipset and ALL of my drives are SATA. Are there any switches I need to use to ensure that everything is enabled correctly? | 10:39 |
| fyrestrtr | bullgard4: what release are you running? | 10:39 |
| hwilde | tonyyarusso, I did that, and removed compiz, and reinstalled metacity. | 10:39 |
| kbrooks | Flynsarmy, waiting... | 10:39 |
| bullgard4 | fyrestrtr: I am running Ubuntu 7.10 German. | 10:40 |
| Navilor | aisi. Core2duo E6600 OCd to 2.5GHz. | 10:40 |
| Vov4ik[ubuntu] | miffe: done. installed libssl. new problem: | 10:40 |
| Vov4ik[ubuntu] | [*] Creating Menu, please wait. | 10:40 |
| Vov4ik[ubuntu] | This needs the ncurses library. If it is not available, menuconf wont work. If you are using curses, use make menuconfig-curses instead. | 10:40 |
| JimmyDee | Navilor, should just bump and run man | 10:40 |
| Flynsarmy | kbrooks: when a program tries to access any ip a popup displays asking to allow or deny the program access. also a remember this preference checkbox | 10:40 |
| omgoose | i have installed the build essentials, now when i ./configure its fine, the when i type make i get :: make: *** No rule to make target `install'. Stop. | 10:40 |
| hwilde | tonyyarusso, if I boot up in the default session and launch a fullscreen 3d graphics game I can play for hours with no problems, but a couple window events and it crashes. i've had icewm up now for almost 2 hours with no problems. | 10:40 |
| kbrooks | Flynsarmy, i know | 10:40 |
| fyrestrtr | bullgard4: strange that you have a later version of the system monitor. | 10:40 |
| tonyyarusso | hwilde: have you searched the bugs and forums for any other reports of issues with your particular card? | 10:40 |
| bullgard4 | fyrestrtr: I can read http://img85.imageshack.us/img85/6183/screenshotmx4.th.png very well. | 10:40 |
| kbrooks | Flynsarmy, i know what you mean. but this would require work. also, the pop ups simply are not intutive. | 10:40 |
| hwilde | tonyyarusso, it is not the card if I can play 3d acceleration games for hours and use other window managers... but anyways it is an nvidia and auto detected and fully supported | 10:41 |
| Navilor | JimmyDee, It is a no go situation right now. I'm just methodically looking at possible hardware issues. I'm running an Nvidia 8800 GTS 640MB video card. Any known issues? | 10:41 |
| pcmattma1 | back | 10:41 |
| miffe | Vov4ik[ubuntu], instlall libncurses5-dev | 10:41 |
| fyrestrtr | Navilor: check the wiki | 10:41 |
| tonyyarusso | hwilde: You don't seem to be listening.... If it were independent of hardware, I would have the same issue. | 10:41 |
| omgoose | i have installed the build essentials, now when i ./configure its fine, the when i type make i get :: make: *** No rule to make target `install'. Stop. , can anyone help? | 10:41 |
| JimmyDee | Navilor, other than installing the restricted driver manager nothing to worry about there | 10:41 |
| Vov4ik[ubuntu] | miffe: already installing x) | 10:42 |
| Navilor | fyrestrtr, I'll double check it, but didn't see any real issues pop up. I'll check again. | 10:42 |
| pcmattma1 | what packages would you recommend i install to be able to play WMA files in a program other than MPlayer or Totem | 10:42 |
| fyrestrtr | bullgard4: I'm surprised your german version has a newer system monitor. | 10:42 |
| fyrestrtr | omgoose: what are you compiling? | 10:42 |
| tonyyarusso | pcmattma1: w32codecs should let you do it in anything really | 10:42 |
| bgc | noone have any help for wireless issues? I would really appreciate it!!! Thx in advance... | 10:42 |
| hwilde | tonyyarusso, well if it were specific to my hardware, switching window managers wouldn't matter it would still lock up. | 10:42 |
| bullgard4 | fyrestrtr: I read your remark but I do not have an explanation. | 10:42 |
| fyrestrtr | pcmattma1: vlc should be able to play them. | 10:42 |
| aisi | Navilor, I am pretty sure that the c3d 6600 has 64bit support, so if it isn't installing/running, then it'll likely be something else | 10:42 |
| tonyyarusso | hwilde: only if every window manager accessed the hardware the same way | 10:42 |
| pcmattma1 | does vlc have a playlist system like rythymbox? | 10:42 |
| omgoose | fyrestrtr: a tar.gz file which i have extracted and cd to the directory | 10:43 |
| Navilor | JimmyDee, Thank you. Next question. I have two pieces of hardware that the kernel hates. One is the ever hated Soundblaster X-Fi Gamer edition. The other is a Bigfoot Networks KillerNIC card. | 10:43 |
| Svish2 | how can I get the du command to skip files, and only list directory sizes? | 10:43 |
| kbrooks | Flynsarmy, but no, i do not know of a firewall that does this | 10:43 |
| tonyyarusso | hwilde: So I'm taking that as a "no", so suggesting you go do that first, so we have a better idea of what the possible issues might be. | 10:43 |
| Flynsarmy | When doing a ./configure (also tries sudo ./configure) i get an error saying the c compiler cannot create executables. gcc is installed (it came with gutsy?) | 10:43 |
| pcmattma1 | and w32codecs haven't done anything ('m pretty sure they're installed, how would i tell?) | 10:43 |
| fyrestrtr | pcmattma1: it has playlist support -- I don't use rythmbox so I can't tell you if is like it or not. | 10:43 |
| Navilor | aisi, thanks for the response. I'm double checking soon on that. | 10:43 |
| hwilde | tonyyarusso, every window manager accesses the nvidia driver the same way. it is the driver that interacts with the hardware directly, not the wm | 10:43 |
| pcmattma1 | ok | 10:43 |
| Svish2 | I mean, it should calculate the file sizes under the directories, but not list them | 10:43 |
| JimmyDee | Navilor, that could be troublesome yes | 10:43 |
| fyrestrtr | omgoose: *what* are you compiling. What program. | 10:43 |
| kbrooks | Flynsarmy, however, the main firewall is iptables | 10:43 |
| miffe | Svish2, -s | 10:43 |
| tonyyarusso | pcmattma1: 'apt-cache policy w32codecs' | 10:43 |
| omgoose | flynsarmy: do a sudo apt-get install build-essentials | 10:43 |
| hwilde | tonyyarusso, my graphics card is nvidia geforce 8600 gts | 10:43 |
| omgoose | flynsarmy: do a sudo apt-get install build-essential ** | 10:43 |
| Navilor | JimmyDee, it's never fun if it is easy is it. | 10:43 |
| fyrestrtr | Svish2: du --max-depth=1 -h . | 10:44 |
| JimmyDee | Navilor, of course not | 10:44 |
| Navilor | I feel like such a n00b right now. All my ancient linux knowledge is for not anymore. | 10:44 |
| fyrestrtr | Navilor: you can thank slackware for that. | 10:44 |
| hwilde | fyrestrtr, Svish2, du -a --max-depth=1 | sort -k1 -n | 10:44 |
| JimmyDee | Navilor, naw, you recognized the kernel hates those things, thats knowlege in action | 10:44 |
| cylent77 | how do i get Compiz-Fusion setup on my laptop (it has a intel 945GM) ??? thsi is ubuntu 7.10 | 10:44 |
| Navilor | fyrestrtr. I know. Slackware was awesome back in the day. | 10:44 |
| Flynsarmy | omgoose: Cannot find package. | 10:45 |
| omgoose | fyrestrtr: orphcrack | 10:45 |
| pcmattma1 | i'm going to get w32codecs again and see what happens this time | 10:45 |
| Svish2 | the -d n works to limit it kind of, but it still lists files | 10:45 |
| tonyyarusso | cylent77: it probably already is | 10:45 |
| GSMX | is there already anyone who knows what changed in 7.10 about wireless networking??? | 10:45 |
| Navilor | JimmyDee, that is the wiki in action. I was hoping that someone here could give me hope. | 10:45 |
| kid | hi every one | 10:45 |
| miffe | Svish2, du -s | 10:45 |
| Vov4ik[ubuntu] | where is ssl path? | 10:45 |
| cylent77 | tonyyarusso: i want to do the burn plus cube effects. cant find any option for them | 10:45 |
| omgoose | flynsarmy: do you have the gutsy cd? if so put it in the drive and try again | 10:45 |
| Vov4ik[ubuntu] | miffe: where is ssl? | 10:45 |
| Vov4ik[ubuntu] | miffe: path? | 10:46 |
| JimmyDee | Navilor, here's hope, I got ubuntu running on a 233mmx laptop | 10:46 |
| tonyyarusso | cylent77: ah, then you just need a configuration frontend. install compizconfig-settings-manager | 10:46 |
| fyrestrtr | omgoose: and there is no deb for it? | 10:46 |
| Navilor | JimmyDee, Wow. Did you use a crowbar to auger it into place? | 10:46 |
| Flynsarmy | omgoose: it is in the drive. i've also done an apt-get update. | 10:46 |
| Gorlist | Running wireless Keyboard & mouse on my other system. Legacy is enabled and they work fine in BIOS - but never in the GRUB boot loader | 10:46 |
| cylent77 | tonyyarusso: i did. it didnt do jack. i apply the option but it doesnt take affect | 10:46 |
| hwilde | tonyyarusso, I did get one error message about window manager events with no timestamp. i think that is messing up my dual core because the cpu spikes | 10:46 |
| JimmyDee | Navilor, its such old technology I used a hammer and chisel | 10:46 |
| Vov4ik[ubuntu] | aAAAA.. WHERE IS SSL DIR! PLEASE HELP | 10:46 |
| Gorlist | its always been like this, - any suggestions on how to resolve this whilst ive got a new install? | 10:46 |
| fyrestrtr | Vov4ik[ubuntu]: there is no such thing as 'ssl dir' | 10:46 |
| JimmyDee | Vov4ik[ubuntu], /etc/ssl | 10:46 |
| tonyyarusso | cylent77: what option do you have under System > Preferences > Appearance? | 10:46 |
| hwilde | tonyyarusso, like if I grab a window to drag and drop and just shake it around real fast, it spikes the cpu, then freezes | 10:46 |
| omgoose | fyrestrtr: there may be, but i need to get this working cause i cant install from ANY tar.gz files cause i get the same error | 10:46 |
| bgc | anyone available for help with wireless on gutsy? | 10:47 |
| insanity909 | bgc | 10:47 |
| johnn1 | vista is now adjar. | 10:47 |
| insanity909 | what wireless card? | 10:47 |
| echodep | does anyone know why my wireless PCMCIA card might show up twice under iwconfig and not at all under ifconfig? | 10:47 |
| Vov4ik[ubuntu] | JimmyDee: thank you | 10:47 |
| bgc | belkin rt61 | 10:47 |
| jhaig | If I want to enable HPET in gutsy (and it cannot be set in the bios), do I need to build my own custom kernel or is there a kernel available in the repositories that includes hpet? | 10:47 |
| JimmyDee | vista is now virus | 10:47 |
| Flynsarmy | omgoose: figured it out. was build-essential. no s | 10:47 |
| fyrestrtr | omgoose: why are you compiling things from source in the first place? But anyway, not every program has the same ./configure && make && sudo make install dance -- read the README file for instructions. | 10:47 |
| Navilor | JimmyDee. Slackware 95 on a Pentium 90 with 8MB ram, CD drive hung off an Aztech SoundGalaxy Washington 16. Got it up and running, with fvwm95, in one week without smoking anything. | 10:47 |
| miffe | echodep, try with ifconfig -a | 10:47 |
| cylent77 | tonyyarusso: System - Prefs - Appearence - Visual Effects - I have it set to Extras right now. there is a CUSTOM option but when i click preferences it doesnt do anything. | 10:47 |
| insanity909 | bgc: do you know what kind of chipset is on this thing? | 10:48 |
| JimmyDee | Navilor, see theres hope | 10:48 |
| tonyyarusso | cylent77: can you launch it from a command line? | 10:48 |
| bgc | i think ralink | 10:48 |
| Navilor | JimmyDee, then I had to manually configure the ppp-on and ppp-off scripts to work with PAP. ouch. | 10:48 |
| bgc | rt61 | 10:48 |
| cylent77 | tonyyarusso: launch what? | 10:48 |
| tonyyarusso | cylent77: ccsm | 10:48 |
| nico_ | hello, gutsy wont mount the windows partitions anymore, what should i do | 10:48 |
| echodep | thanks miffe, that made it appear, any idea why the card shows up twice? I'm using the Hostap driver and have orinoco blacklisted | 10:48 |
| bgc | insanity909: i had it working, somehow, on feisty, but it all stopped working with the upgrade... | 10:49 |
| miffe | echodep, no idea, sorry | 10:49 |
| smmagic | Can someone help? | 10:49 |
| bgc | insanity909: I'm new to all this, so it might be that I've messed too much with the system, I don't know... but I've tried all sorts of things... in my ignorance.. | 10:49 |
| MGalaxy | hello, Is it possible that I boot from Ubuntu .ISO file ? | 10:49 |
| cylent77 | tonyyarusso: i get the following errors; http://pastebin.com/m1708aaf8 | 10:49 |
| Flynsarmy | How do i add a folder to my PATH? | 10:49 |
| miffe | Flynsarmy, export PATH=$PATH:/some/folder | 10:50 |
| JimmyDee | MGalaxy, why not just expand the iso onto a disk? | 10:50 |
| Navilor | JimmyDee, The first issue I have is that the screen goes dark and the hard drive lights stop as well. I REALLY don't want to have to crack the case because I currently have WinXP in a perfect state. Yes, I could reinstall from my image at some time in the future, but I was REALLY hoping that linux was now more hardware friendly. What is your advice? | 10:50 |
| jhaig | MGalaxy: Not from the file, I think. You will need to burn it to a disk. | 10:50 |
| dgjones | MGalaxy, what are you trying to do? | 10:50 |
| nico_ | i cant acces my windows partition anymore, how can i fix it (gutsy) | 10:50 |
| smmagic | Depends: libaudio2 but it is not installable | 10:50 |
| tonyyarusso | cylent77: odd... | 10:50 |
| smmagic | Why does that come up? | 10:50 |
| jhaig | MGalaxy: You can boot from an iso in VMware, but I doubt that is what you are looking for. | 10:51 |
| MGalaxy | JimmyDee, I have a windows XP and I want to boot a live linux from .iso file | 10:51 |
| JimmyDee | Navilor, barring some freakish miracle, remove the offending hardware and replace it with something more...civilized | 10:51 |
| cylent77 | tonyyarusso: ya. i know | 10:51 |
| JimmyDee | MGalaxy, vmware server will do it | 10:51 |
| tonyyarusso | cylent77: not sure, and I need to get some sleep | 10:51 |
| Navilor | MGalaxy. You would need to use VirtualPC to boot off of a virtual drive. It is free from Microsoft. | 10:51 |
| cylent77 | tonyyarusso: np. thanks for the help | 10:51 |
| nico_ | i cant acces my windows partition anymore, how can i fix it (gutsy) | 10:51 |
| MGalaxy | JimmyDee, no, I dont want to use a VM, those are so slow :-s | 10:52 |
| JimmyDee | then use the live cd? | 10:52 |
| Navilor | MGalaxy, When you mount an ISO image it only works for that operating CD. You will need to burn the ISO to a CD or DVD so you can boot off of it. No system stuff will be damaged. | 10:52 |
| dgjones | Install | MGalaxy, if you're looking for different ways to install, try uboto's link | 10:53 |
| Navilor | I can't believe I came here for help and am now helping people out. | 10:53 |
| dgjones | !Install | MGalaxy, if you're looking for different ways to install, try uboto's link | 10:53 |
| MGalaxy | JimmyDee, yes, but Live CD from .iso file :D | 10:53 |

| JimmyDee | Navilor, welcome to my nightmare | 10:53 |
| JimmyDee | Navilor, I came here 3 days ago with a samba issue | 10:53 |
| Navilor | JimmyDee. lol. Thanks for sharing. | 10:53 |
| MGalaxy | thx | 10:53 |
| jhaig | Navilor: What goes around, comes around. :-) | 10:54 |
| Navilor | JimmyDee. did you get it fixed or did it hose your network? | 10:54 |
| nico_ | does no one know how to make ubuntu mount the windows partitions again? | 10:54 |
| bgc | insanity909: any clues on how i can sort this? Is there anyway of resetting everything relevant to wireless connections? Would the card actually work with a fresh install? | 10:54 |
| zz27 | Hello, have any one know to setting geforce 8800gtx at ubuntu? | 10:54 |
| Flynsarmy | miffe: export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin didn't seem to work. i have a file in there 'ghci' but still can't access it by typing ghci | 10:54 |
| thor | Hey is ther some gui tols for ARP atack so it can run in the background | 10:54 |
| JimmyDee | Navilor, its working smoothly all the windoze boxes are now happily unaware they no longer have my documents directories on their hard drives | 10:54 |
| miffe | Flynsarmy, try chmod +x /usr/local/bin/ghci first | 10:54 |
| Gorlist | Running wireless Keyboard & mouse on my other system. Legacy is enabled and they work fine in BIOS - but never in the GRUB boot loader | 10:55 |
| fyrestrtr | JimmyDee: what is your samba issue? | 10:55 |
| Gorlist | any suggestions? | 10:55 |
| JimmyDee | fyrestrtr, nothing now | 10:55 |
| Navilor | JimmyDee. Great job there. Samba can be finnicky at times. | 10:55 |
| fyrestrtr | "at times"? | 10:55 |
| nico_ | does no one know how to make ubuntu mount the windows partitions again? | 10:55 |
| fyrestrtr | clearly you haven't done anything serious in samba ;) | 10:55 |
| kid | i úse only ubuntu not windows | 10:55 |
| smmagic | .. | 10:55 |
| smmagic | I can't install wine | 10:55 |
| fyrestrtr | nico_: if you can stop repeating, maybe someone will answer you | 10:55 |
| Flynsarmy | miffe: didn't make a difference. when i ls in the /bin folder ghc, ghci and ghc-pkg appear in red text with a grey foregorund if that helps :S | 10:56 |
| smmagic | The following packages have unmet dependencies: | 10:56 |
| smmagic | wine: Depends: libaudio2 but it is not installabe | 10:56 |
| nico_ | well if no one is responding no one ever knows i asked a question | 10:56 |
| DiKKy | Hi, i was wondering how you might downgrade a package to the previous version using apt-get, due to stability issues with most recent version of package? | 10:56 |
| smmagic | Then I try to install libaudio2 | 10:56 |
| JimmyDee | fyrestrtr, I got my 3 printers printering and all 5 windoze boxes thinking their my documents directories still live locally | 10:56 |
| smmagic | But it says i need ffftw3 | 10:56 |
| dgjones | smmagic, are you installing wine using synaptic or apt-get? | 10:56 |
| DiKKy | do i just have to remove it and locate a .deb of previous version? | 10:56 |
| smmagic | But the max is ffftw2.. | 10:56 |
| smmagic | Argh! | 10:57 |
| fyrestrtr | !patience | nico_ | 10:57 |
| smmagic | I tryed both | 10:57 |
| ubotu | nico_: The people here are volunteers, your attitude may determine how fast you are helped. Not everyone is available all the time, likewise not every answer is available instantly. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines | 10:57 |
| Navilor | JimmyDee and everyone who helped out. Thank you very much. I'm going to ponder system disassembly to solve my issue. Again, thank you all for your help. | 10:57 |
| miffe | Flynsarmy, what does ls -l /usr/local/bin say | 10:57 |
| JimmyDee | Navilor, no dissassemble johnny 5 | 10:57 |
| Flynsarmy | miffe: lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 2007-10-25 19:49 ghci -> ghci-6.6.1 | 10:58 |
| Navilor | JimmyDee. I don't want to, but may have to. Johnny 5 will live again. | 10:58 |
| dgjones | smmagic, the version in the repo's should have all dependencies met, i'd check for you, but, i'm in the middle of an upgrade | 10:58 |
| JimmyDee | Navilor, rock on | 10:58 |
| hwilde | Navilor, you said you know old linux? I am in kernel 2.4.22 and parted says support for ext3 file systems is not implemented yet. but the drive has ext3 partitions, so how did they get there? | 10:58 |
| qwerty121 | hi! what's the command to get filesystem lists? | 10:58 |
| Flynsarmy | miffe: also a line like that for the other two files i mentioned. | 10:58 |
| miffe | Flynsarmy, ah, it's looking for ghci-6.6.1, but since it can't find it, it shows up as red | 10:58 |
| JimmyDee | hwilde, gparted, qtparted? | 10:58 |
| hwilde | qwerty121, ls | 10:58 |
| smmagic | ..I just reinstall ubuntu now nothing works | 10:58 |
| hwilde | JimmyDee, parted I don't typo | 10:58 |
| qwerty121 | hwilde: something like "fdisk" something? | 10:59 |
| JimmyDee | hwilde, no I mean could gparted or qtparted have put them there? | 10:59 |
| hwilde | qwerty121, sudo fdisk -l | 10:59 |
| nico_ | qwerty: fdisk -l | 10:59 |
| disinterested | nico: try this http://lifehacker.com/software/linux-101/mount-a-windows-shared-folder-in-linux-288033.php | 10:59 |
| kbrooks | JimmyDee, yes | 10:59 |
| hwilde | JimmyDee, those don't exist on this machine :/ I would prefer to use them. there is actually a Win95 Extended LBA partition and then a bunch of ext3. I can't seem to recreate either | 10:59 |
| kbrooks | JimmyDee, parted != gparted/qtparted | 10:59 |
| qwerty121 | hwilde: thanks | 10:59 |
| kbrooks | hwilde, see above | 11:00 |
| hwilde | qwerty121, must run as sudo or you see nothing | 11:00 |
| nico_ | disinterested: it worked yesterday, it automaticly mounted my windows partitions, but not anymore | 11:00 |
| DNZL | HELLO | 11:00 |
| qwerty121 | hwilde: yap. i got it | 11:00 |
| hwilde | kbrooks, see what above? | 11:00 |
| guhhh | hey, my resolv.conf keeps changing to: 'search localdomain' and 'server 192.168.51.2', every minute... and its not being sent by my router... how can i check whats sending this? | 11:00 |
| kbrooks | hwilde, what i said | 11:00 |
| hwilde | nico_, it has to be in /etc/fstab | 11:00 |
| Navilor | hwilde, Wow. Um, it's been a LONG time. ext3 and ext2 are very similar and you may have an issue with it detecting things correctly. I wish I could answer that coherently. | 11:00 |
| DNZL | I CANT INSTALL KADU HELP ME | 11:00 |
| JimmyDee | guhhh, pull the cable to localize it first | 11:00 |
| zz27 | i had install new-glx driver from ubutu repo. but my geforce can't work. someone can help me plz | 11:00 |
| kbrooks | hwilde, i dont think Navilor | 11:00 |
| kbrooks | hwilde, i dont think Navilor's right | 11:00 |
| Navilor | hwild, did you have a previous OS on the box? | 11:01 |
| kbrooks | hwilde, parted supports things differently | 11:01 |
| Flynsarmy | miffe: How would i fix it? I installed it by compiling ghci-6.6.1 from source. at the end it said 'To use, add /src/local/bin to your PATH.' | 11:01 |
| kbrooks | hwilde, from g/qtparted | 11:01 |
| Flynsarmy | miffe: sorry ghc-6.6.1 | 11:01 |
| elitepanda | for some reason when i login to ubuntu it runs some kind of "restart" which sends be back to the login page | 11:01 |
| nico_ | hwilde: all the partitions are in /etc/fstab | 11:01 |
| === elitepanda is now known as Y3K | ||
| thor | Is there some ARP tools for linux | 11:01 |
| hwilde | Navilor, kbrooks it is old redhat something I dunno how to tell. but parted is the only partitioner available | 11:01 |
| kosh- | When I move the mouse pointer over the min/max/close buttons of a maximized window, it's titel will disappear for a moment. I use a freshly installed Gutsy with 3D effects on a nvidia gpu. Any ideas? Or is that normal (known bug)? I also have screenshots (if needed). | 11:01 |
| Y3K | only failsafe GNOME works, any ideas? | 11:01 |
| kbrooks | hwilde, well, its old redhat | 11:02 |
| miffe | Flynsarmy, can't you just install the ghc6 package? | 11:02 |
| Navilor | kbrooks, I know I am probably very wrong. It has been over 7 years since I have really worked on linux. | 11:02 |
| kbrooks | hwilde, the installer supports ext3, not gnu parted | 11:02 |
| emaconline | help, i cant boot my ubuntu after i upgraded it to gutsy... :( | 11:02 |
| hwilde | kbrooks, that is why I asked Navilor | 11:02 |
| Flynsarmy | miffe: Probably. didn't want to waste any of my extremely restrictive download limit downloading it when i have the source right here :S | 11:02 |
| McOwnage | Hello again i installed ubuntu 5.1, was told to get the new one 7.10 did that burned to disk trying to install but keep getting error [ 233.489426] Buffer I/O error on device fd0, logical block 0 | 11:03 |
| Navilor | hwilde, I've been reduced to n00b status on this. All I can do is cause chaos for your answer. Sorry I couldn't help out. | 11:03 |
| JimmyDee | fd0? the floppy drive is boffo? | 11:03 |
| hwilde | Navilor, ok I thought maybe this was from your time period | 11:03 |
| bgc | Hi, I had trouble using rt61 wireless card with feisty, but got it working following http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=419709. Updated to gutsy, and it all went wrong and wont work.

| emaconline | i can't boot my ubuntu help please... | 11:04 |
| McOwnage | now it is installing weird | 11:04 |
| miffe | Flynsarmy, you could try looking for the ghci-6.6.1 file in the source dir and copy it to /usr/local/bin | 11:04 |
| thor | I have it on google so thanks | 11:04 |
| JimmyDee | McOwnage, define wierd | 11:04 |
| HackXP | emaconline, Why can't you boot it? | 11:04 |
| === arddiiiiii is now known as boysGotF | ||
| emaconline | it just gives me a command line screen | 11:05 |
| HackXP | McOwnage, Are you doing a fresh install or an upgrade? | 11:05 |
| simplyubuntu | hello all... can anyone tell me whats better, evolution or thunderbird? | 11:05 |
| McOwnage | fresh install downloaded the iso burned it and installing it over 5.1 | 11:05 |
| JimmyDee | can you tell me which is better bud select or budweiser? | 11:05 |
| johnn1 | I used both..but I did like evolution | 11:05 |
| hwilde | McOwnage, you need to disable the floppy in your bios if it does not exist. I had that same error. | 11:05 |
| HackXP | simplyubuntu, Personal opinion is all. Evolution is best for me. | 11:05 |
| inversekinetix | i just installed wine and am having a hell of a time trying to figure out why there is no d3d support, any ideas? | 11:05 |
| HackXP | JimmyDee, lol | 11:06 |
| nico_ | JimmyDee: budweiser, they had a funny screensaver a long time ago | 11:06 |
| emaconline | i can't boot and it just gives me a command line.. | 11:06 |
| hwilde | inversekinetix, maybe because it is an emulator and it does not have direct access to the hardware | 11:06 |
| HackXP | emaconline, Okay. | 11:06 |
| emaconline | help please.. :D | 11:06 |
| boysGotF | ghh | 11:06 |
| McOwnage | Thanks will do dam i have not used a floppy since boot cd's lol | 11:06 |
| JimmyDee | emaconline, the fact remains its booting to a command prompt, not "not booting" | 11:07 |
| dotjay | emaconline: did you try typing startX | 11:07 |
| usuario_ | ola? | 11:07 |
| koshari | <McOwnage there both crap beers | 11:07 |

| usuario_ | hay alguien de españa? | 11:07 |
| emaconline | dotjay havent tried... | 11:07 |
| simplyubuntu | ok HackXP, but what features do the 2 have tat make them diff | 11:07 |
| nico_ | Grolsch owns all | 11:07 |
| fyrestrtr | simplyubuntu: please take such things to #ubuntu-offtopic -- this channel is for support only. | 11:07 |
| HackXP | emaconline, What does it say at your command line? | 11:07 |

| HackXP | simplyubuntu, I don't know all the differences. | 11:08 |
| inversekinetix | any other ideas? | 11:08 |

| aisi | hwilde, but grub works fine. I just can't boot into vista without getting a black screen complaining about winload, and suggesting I use a non-existant vista dvd for recovery (laptop comes with a factory install restore disc) | 11:09 |
| floating | does eveonline work on ubuntu ? | 11:09 |
| dotjay | emaconline: previously with the older versions of ubunut even i had that problem may be the hardware compatibility must have not been there anyways try typing startx that will bring up the Xwindows | 11:09 |
| inversekinetix | glxinfo | grep direct = yes | 11:10 |
| aisi | probably not the right place to ask, really :S | 11:10 |
| JimmyDee | floating, yuppers with a few tweaks | 11:10 |
| jingjang | i'll show my desktop for my frend, he'll happy | 11:10 |
| hwilde | aisi, sorry that is the only link that I know. good luck getting support for vista. it has more bugs than users | 11:10 |
| damien_ | Hey did the latest libc upgrade break things? I can't open up the terminal and totem player won't work, both just die with no error. | 11:10 |

| Shapeshifter | I have lap top and at work I can connect to an open wlan network named "work". When I'm connected I need to connect to a vpn server or else I have very limited access. Is it possible for the network manager to automatically launch vpnc-connect as soon as it detects that it is connected to "work"? So that everytime I connect to "work" I will automatically be connected to the vpn network? | 11:42 |

| bgc | hi, anyone available for help to get wireless to work on gutsy? | 11:44 |
| hwilde | bgc, what about wireless | 11:44 |
| Shapeshifter | hwilde: thx i'll have a look into that | 11:45 |
| avi_me | I would realy hate to return to windows for that... | 11:45 |
| Shapeshifter | avi_me for what? | 11:46 |
| bgc | hwilde: I have a Belkin rt61 card that I got to work on Feisty following http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=419709, but upgraded to Gutsy and now stopped working, I have no clue why... do you have any suggestions? | 11:46 |
| damien_ | After the libc6 2.6.1-1ubuntu9 update, Terminal crashes when I try to start it, anyone have an idea why? I don't know how to read the crash report... | 11:46 |
| hwilde | bgc, follow the forums again to reinstall. | 11:46 |
| avi_me | for the problem I'm having with ubuntu , unable to login to the system | 11:46 |
| bgc | hwilde: I tried, but none of the suggestions I have found seem to work... | 11:46 |
| hwilde | bgc, sry i dont have that card | 11:46 |
| avi_me | in windows at least restore is possible | 11:46 |
| hwilde | avi_me, what do you mean unable to login | 11:47 |
| bgc | hwilde: ok thanks for your suggestion though.. | 11:47 |

| viklund | does anyone know if it's possible to configure ssh to use different keys depending on what username I log in with? | 11:48 |
| viklund | in .ssh/config I can specify different default usernames (and more) for different hosts | 11:48 |
| viklund | but that's only halfway there... | 11:49 |
| mohkohn | I need to install a 2.6.23 kernel. What is the best doc for me to follow? | 11:49 |
| avi_me | I tried to install ldap server on ubuntu, to manage logins, but after a while I removed the ldap server and since then the workstation does not give me login. I restored the nssswitch.conf and pam.d/common-* settings and even all the passwd group and shadow files but still whenever i try to login whatever i type in the login | 11:49 |
| avi_me | it gives me login incorrect without asking for password... | 11:49 |
| avi_me | in tty1 | 11:49 |
| damien_ | nm! Figured it out, just had to reinstall libc6, not sure why it was broken but that worked... | 11:49 |
| MrMist | Hey guys | 11:49 |
| MrMist | I'm having problems with basic input | 11:50 |
| hwilde | viklund, man 5 ssh_config the option you want is IdentifyFile | 11:50 |
| hwilde | avi_me, hit ctrl+Alt+f1 and login as root | 11:50 |
| MrMist | I've got a MS wireless keyboard/mouse... when holding down any key on the keyboard, the mouse freezes completely | 11:50 |
| avi_me | the only way I manage to login is with root in recovery mode when I'm asked to enter root password or press ctrl+d | 11:50 |
| hwilde | MrMist, MS lol. my logitech works perfect | 11:50 |
| scriptdevil | is there any way of getting the compiz cube with xfce? | 11:50 |
| viklund | hwilde: Yes, but that only specifies the identityfile to use for a specifict host, I want an identity file for a specific user@host combination (or have I misread the docs?)... | 11:51 |
| hwilde | avi_me, good so login as root, then type in "passwd <usernametofix>" and you can reset the pw | 11:51 |
| MrMist | hwilde: Try opening up a terminal: hold the space key down, and move the mouse simultaneously | 11:51 |
| Master25 | hi, irgendjemand deutsch hier? | 11:51 |
| mohkohn | Are there any mistakes on this page? http://howtoforge.com/roll_a_kernel_debian_ubuntu_way | 11:51 |
| hwilde | viklund, you can only have one entry in the ssh_config per host to connect to | 11:51 |
| MrMist | hwilde: What happens ? | 11:51 |
| Marcus_ | Master25, join #ubuntu-de | 11:51 |
| viklund | hwilde: sry, never mind, you were right | 11:51 |
| hwilde | MrMist, the mouse moves and the spaces scroll at the same time. logitech cordless comfort duo - works every time | 11:52 |
| viklund | it's possible to use IdentityFile that way, didnt RTFM properly ;) | 11:52 |
| hwilde | viklund, the identify file is the key. the entry in the .ssh/config would be a combination of Host, Hostname, User, and Key | 11:52 |
| avi_me | hwilde, tried that on user , still the same problem - note that whatever I type in the login prompt as a user i'm not asked for a password just get "login incorrect" | 11:52 |
| MrMist | hwilde: hrmf... isn't this a driver issue? Or do I have to plug in another mouse ? | 11:52 |
| Marcus_ | i am trying to use acpi-cpufreq for cpu scaling on my centrino machine but scaling_max_freq is still the same as scaling_min_freq so the scaling does not work correctly. any ideas how to fix this? | 11:53 |
| hwilde | MrMist, definitely driver issue (assuming that doesn't happen in windows) | 11:53 |
| Helmi | hey all - i just noticed my /usr partition is full - to free up some space i though it would probably be a good idea to create separate partiotions for /usr/lib and /usr/share which take most of the space - what do you think= | 11:53 |
| hwilde | MrMist, there is apossibiltiy the frequencies interfere and you just can't use both at the same time | 11:53 |
| hwilde | avi_me, if you login as root, and then type "passwd <user>" it will reset the password for user. then you can login as user | 11:53 |
| viklund | Thanks, hwilde | 11:53 |
| bgc | hi anyone else available for wireless help on gutsy? thx in advance! | 11:53 |
| hwilde | bgc, ask your specific question and maybe someone will have your wireless card | 11:54 |
| nios | hey i have nvidia and i cant change to 75hz, and here is my xorg.conf -> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/42059/ | 11:54 |
| hwilde | bgc, generic wireless questions, yeah plenty of people can help, but your specific one is unique | 11:54 |
| avi_me | hwilde , I can only login as root in recovery mode, after I did that I put in "passwd avi_me" and entred the new pass , still after reboot it's the same problem | 11:55 |
| bgc | hi, I have a Belkin rt61 card which i got to work using http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=419709 on Feisty. Upgraded to Gutsy, and it stopped working. i tried some suggestions from the forums, but with no success. Anyone know how to get it working? | 11:55 |
| bgc | thx hwilde, apologies for the not-very-specific question | 11:55 |
| hwilde | avi_me, disable whatever you have that is overriding your password. | 11:55 |
| hwilde | bgc, your only hope is that someone sees Belkin rt61 and says oh yeah I got that working | 11:56 |
| bgc | hwilde: yeah that's true, should have done that before.. | 11:56 |
| SmoothOp | question | 11:57 |
| SmoothOp | does firefox for ubuntu still support all the add-ons? | 11:57 |
| ylle | Hey, I would like to install *all* the dev packages for SDL. | 11:57 |
| avi_me | hwilde, how do I check what is overriding ? It's a clean system with nothing installed (besides the ldap packages) and I already restored them to oroginals | 11:57 |
| hwilde | avi_me, you must have installed some domain login stuff | 11:57 |
| MrMist | hwilde: Hmm... it happens with another DELL USB mouse connected as well | 11:57 |
| miffe | SmoothOp, yes | 11:57 |
| SmoothOp | is the ati driver support any better? | 11:58 |

| mohkohn | Oops SbiellONE wrong card I am thinking AR5007UG | 12:19 |
| Myrtti | ME_AGAIN: are you absolutely positively sure about the 755 | 12:19 |
| smmagic | Time to reinstall AGaAIN | 12:19 |
| mohkohn | lsusb is similar but checks usb devices | 12:20 |
| ME_AGAIN | yes | 12:20 |
| SbiellONE | mine is a PCMCIA one | 12:20 |
| SlimeyPete | ME_AGAIN: sudo chmod -R 755 * | 12:20 |

| mohkohn | Sorry SbiellONE I think I am mistaken now. | 12:20 |

| Billies | i selected a theme for the new ubuntu and hit yes to use the sugested themes, and uh, well, they are so large, they are causing things to look out of size, and generally "ugly", the firefox tabs whare text is is bulged and doesnt match the rounded corners due to the large fond, is there any way to reset it back to the normal fonts and sizes? | 12:21 |
| Billies | er, sugested fonts | 12:21 |
| nios | koshari: Nope i have a LCD 19 | 12:21 |
| SlimeyPete | ME_AGAIN: you can also do "sudo chmod -R 755 /path/to/directory" if you're not currently in the directory you wish to start from | 12:21 |
| McOwnage | ME_AGAIN: how are you going to make a back up if you do that? | 12:21 |
| SbiellONE | i guess i'll have to rebuild wireless driver manually | 12:21 |
| mohkohn | If your wireless is pci based lspic -v but if usb lsusb | 12:21 |
| SbiellONE | ok | 12:21 |
| ME_AGAIN | i have 2 HD | 12:21 |

| koshari | nios you wont be wanting 70hz then | 12:22 |
| smmagic | If ubuntu doesn't work this time | 12:22 |
| smmagic | I'm switching to gentoo | 12:22 |
| nios | in windows i used 75 Hz | 12:22 |
| kbrooks | smmagic, we dont care about gentoo | 12:22 |
| CyberCr33p | hello | 12:22 |
| ME_AGAIN | so should my music HD be chmod 755? | 12:22 |
| CyberCr33p | I install | 12:22 |
| CyberCr33p | xpdf | 12:22 |
| CyberCr33p | and I want to completely remove it with all the other packages it install. | 12:23 |
| CyberCr33p | how can I do it? | 12:23 |
| smmagic | If no packages install ubuntu is useless | 12:23 |

| MrEgg964 | Hi everybody. Is anybody else having printing issues since Gutsy upgrade? I'm using an Epson CX11NF, and I can't get any printout, although everything was running nice & smooth w/ Feisty :( | 12:23 |
| nanonyme | nios, btw, do you have nvidia? | 12:24 |
| Bonste1 | MrEgg964: u might need to search for drivers | 12:24 |
| nios | nanonyme: yeah | 12:24 |
| mctavish | Ahem. Hi. I have upgraded to gutsy from feisty and have a problem. Occasionally, not always, on boot gnome doesn't fully load. Mouse, but no right click menu, panel, etc. Tried a new user, no go. Suggestions? | 12:24 |
| gotdalife | any updates regarding ubuntu compatibility with the Acer Aspire series? | 12:24 |
| nanonyme | nios, nvidia does additional tampering with refresh rates. it's related to dual display stuff (even though you only have one display). you can safely ignore refresh rates if your eyes don't start hurting and screen doesn't blink | 12:25 |
| Joth | I'm having problems upgrading - it freezes trying to download files, and I get a long list of error messages. | 12:25 |
| Joth | E.g. Failed to fetch http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/gutsy/main/i18n/Translation-en_US.bz2 | 12:25 |
| MrEgg964 | Bonste1: there aren't any new drivers for my printer, and those I had downloaded from Epson worked under Edgy & Feisty. | 12:25 |
| nios | nanonyme: ok | 12:25 |
| babo | Are we aware that the upgrade path to gutsy isn't working ? The source files are giving 404's ? | 12:26 |
| Bonste1 | MrEgg964: for me my printer was reconize but i could not print had to get some extra drivers to print | 12:26 |
| babo | damn, I don't have the link | 12:26 |
| nanonyme | nios, that is, the refresh rate shown isn't the real refresh rate | 12:26 |
| getBoa | Guys how to remove the clock background on Gnome? i set transparency on my panel but the clock and the volume control are still with a white background. actually only with that MAC OS theme.... any idea ? | 12:26 |
| koshari | nanonyte, lcds DONT flicker like crts | 12:26 |
| MrEgg964 | Bonste1: did you upgrade to Gutsy or fresh install ? | 12:26 |
| Billies | does anyone know what the font size is for the human theme? | 12:26 |
| Bonste1 | i had beta gutsy | 12:26 |
| nanonyme | koshari, they do if they are incompatible with the refresh rate | 12:26 |
| nanonyme | koshari, but true, it's for a different reason than you had in crt's | 12:27 |
| MrEgg964 | Bonste1: I'll keep looking then | 12:27 |
| Joth | http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/gutsy/main/i18n/Translation-en_US.bz2 gives a 404 | 12:27 |

| 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 | 12:28 |
| Pici | Joth: In gnome: System>Adminsitration>Software Sources | 12:28 |
| koshari | nios you should use the rated freq of the panel and 99% are 60hz | 12:28 |
| abhibera | what is wrong? | 12:28 |
| mctavish | Joth: you might try changing your mirrors to use the main ubuntu repos - ie take the .gb away from the lines in the sources.list. Probably configurable in synaptic somewhere. | 12:28 |
| nanonyme | nios, there was some xorg.conf option you have to set to get to choose between real refresh rates | 12:28 |
| bgc | hi, anyone got an rt61 wireless card (specifically in this case Belkin) working on gutsy? | 12:28 |
| nanonyme | koshari, the refresh rates he's seeing are not real. they are nvidia stuff | 12:28 |
| Bryan | anyone got any solutions on why miro keeps randomly crashing? | 12:28 |
| nios | nanonyme: please help me with that option ;) | 12:29 |
| nanonyme | koshari, he needs to disable a dual display setting that's by default on to get the real ones | 12:29 |
| nanonyme | koshari, unfortunately i don't remember what it is | 12:29 |
| koshari | stick wif 60 | 12:29 |
| Joth | Thanks - trying to upgrade again... | 12:30 |
| nanonyme | koshari, as he said, there is no such option | 12:30 |
| nanonyme | that is an nvidia driver feature he's having | 12:30 |
| koshari | i thaught he said there was no 70? | 12:30 |
| mohkohn | Can somebody advise me of a good ubuntu how to compile the kernel doc? | 12:30 |
| babo | how can i find the bw that my connections are using at the moment ? There isn't a netstat switch for that ? | 12:30 |
| nanonyme | 14:28 < *nios> nanonyme: can only choose between 50 and 51 | 12:30 |
| koshari | sure he hasnt got a modeline in his xorg.conf file? | 12:31 |
| nanonyme | koshari, not related to this | 12:31 |
| nanonyme | it's related to a mystic nvidia driver setting found in nvidia documentation | 12:31 |

| lawke | anyone can advice me a good mp3 player? | 12:53 |
| Carb0n | compwiz18: I mean does it tamper with my data when I resize it? | 12:53 |
| compwiz18 | I've used it before and I'm still here ;) | 12:53 |
| compwiz18 | nope | 12:53 |
| compwiz18 | it shouldn't | 12:53 |
| Psi-Jack | Mountaingod: The kernel line for loading the kernel is where it tells it to use the splash screen, usplash. | 12:53 |
| compwiz18 | Carb0n, nope | 12:53 |
| compwiz18 | Carb0n, no promises though :D | 12:53 |
| Carb0n | compwiz18: What about internal file fragmentation, then? | 12:53 |
| Ant1jr | um, I tried all ports, I only get mic sound through one, and that causes the headphones to capture sound not the mic | 12:54 |
| compwiz18 | Carb0n, I dpm, all I know is it didn't kill my partitions | 12:54 |
| compwiz18 | Carb0n, I don't know, all I know is it didn't kill my partitions | 12:54 |
| Carb0n | compwiz18: Does it handle that, when I try to expand a partition on the begining of the cylinder? | 12:54 |
| Carb0n | compwiz18: OK. Thank you very much. | 12:54 |
| roxlu | and I connect to a samba share, but when I 'm in an application and want to save a file, the share is gone??? | 12:54 |
| compwiz18 | Carb0n, I don't know, sorry | 12:54 |
| Mountaingod | Psi-Jack: OK, I think I've got it. Which GRUB file do I need to edit to achieve this? Or does it actually have to be done in GRUB while it's running? | 12:54 |

| Carb0n | compwiz18: I wanted to pick between GParted, QTParted, and extresize | 12:55 |
| compwiz18 | Mountaingod, sudo vim /etc/grub/menu.list | 12:55 |
| Psi-Jack | Mountaingod: /boot/grub/menu.lst | 12:55 |
| compwiz18 | Carb0n, ah. I've only ever used gparted, and it works well enough | 12:55 |
| Psi-Jack | Mountaingod: Any updates dones to grub will get re-changed though. | 12:55 |
| Carb0n | compwiz18: Or anything that weren't in my radar ;) | 12:55 |
| apecat | are there no canonical provided repos with vmware server and related modules for gutsy? | 12:55 |
| Psi-Jack | Mountaingod: Where update-grub uses to build the menu options I'm uncertain of in Ubuntu. | 12:55 |
| Carb0n | compwiz18: I've used many. But like only GParted (interface) and QTParted (Stability) | 12:55 |
| astro76 | Carb0n, gparted and qtparted are the same under the hood | 12:56 |
| roxlu | does someone knows how to fix that? | 12:56 |
| Carb0n | compwiz18: I know. I just refrain from using the commandline interface | 12:56 |
| Psi-Jack | Mountaingod: man update-grub, to find out how to make your changes persistant, once it does what you want. | 12:56 |
| Mountaingod | Psi-Jack: Ok, thanks | 12:56 |
| Carb0n | compwiz18: What I mean by stability is that GParted doesn't allow too much tweaking. FS block size for example. | 12:57 |
| compwiz18 | Carb0n, it's gnome :) | 12:57 |
| spiekey | hi | 12:57 |
| spiekey | how can i use ubuntu as a wlan-accesspoint? | 12:58 |

| spiekey | its a dlink: Network controller: Texas Instruments ACX 111 54Mbps Wireless Interface | 12:59 |
| disinterested | snufkin: yep | 12:59 |
| compwiz18 | spiekey, try (this will d/c the box it is run on if the card you are using now is the one you are configuring) sudo iwconfig wlan0 mode master essid "TEST" | 12:59 |
| compwiz18 | spiekey, where wlan0 is your wireless interface | 13:00 |
| Carb0n | Snufkin: System -> Administration -> System Monitor | 13:00 |
| Carb0n | Snufkin: Beware. It's lot more functional and powerful. | 13:00 |

| parth | how do i extract from cpio archive | 13:01 |
| spiekey | compwiz18: from dmesg: acx: master mode (HostAP) is very, very experimental! It might work partially, but better get prepared for nasty surprises at any time | 13:01 |

| spiekey | compwiz18: looks okay doesnt it? Do i just set it up like a client just with a diffrent mode? | 13:01 |
| compwiz18 | spiekey, ok, so then you can give that interface a static IP and then you should be able to give another card a static ip then use iwconfig | 13:02 |

| murlidhar | can anybody tell me how to start the mldonkey core application cuz my mldonkey-gui says not connected | 13:07 |
| murlidhar | :) | 13:07 |
| robn | edward: ah right, i have no idea about macs..... | 13:07 |
| edward | well i was just wondering if you knew whether the upgrade using the alternate cd would... take away... these drivers ive installed or leave them? (ive never upgraded ubuntu before ... new when 7.04 was released) | 13:09 |
| trypglyph | is there any reason why the right-click menu won't come up in Fluxbox? | 13:09 |
| robn | edward: i would think it would stop them working, if they are inserted into the kernel, then an upgrade gives you a new kernel with which you would have to reinsert/reinstall the drivers (confirmation on this????).....i've never upgraded either, prefer to do a clean install for each new release instead | 13:11 |
| Snufkin | When try to open system monitor it just says in the taskbar "Starting System Monitor" but never actually starts, just disappears. Anyone have any clues? | 13:11 |

| auowE | can it handle rtf also. | 13:24 |
| jdong | auowE: yeah, certainly | 13:24 |
| roxlu | robn: still no gui for that?? | 13:24 |
| jdong | auowE: it even uses OpenDocument as its default format, and can definitely do RTF | 13:24 |

| vegpuff | hi, i am using 7.10, and i am not able to use Xgl in ATI | 13:37 |
| roxlu | robn: hmmm still seeing 2 the same screens | 13:37 |
| vegpuff | i have a ATI radeon | 13:37 |
| roxlu | robn: do you know what that can cause? | 13:38 |
| deadheron | vegpuff: maybe you should take a look at ati linux driver 8.42 :) it support AIGLX | 13:38 |
| lawke | robn, I download the tar.gz version, I just started using gnome so I don't really know how to install this.. | 13:38 |
| vegpuff | deadheron: is it available from the ubuntu base, or do i have to download from the company's website? | 13:38 |
| robn | roxlu: have you tried running "nvidia-settings" | 13:38 |
| robn | lawke: that is the source, you want the .DEB package instead | 13:39 |
| omgoose | scorpking: /dev/sda1 is mounted; will not make a filesystem here! | 13:39 |
| deadheron | vegpuff its quite a complicated install, i can explain it to you in private chat | 13:39 |
| lawke | ok, thx | 13:39 |
| ScorpKing | omgoose: sudo umount /dev/sda1 | 13:39 |
| vegpuff | deadheron: oh! | 13:39 |
| vegpuff | deadheron: are you using one? | 13:39 |
| roxlu | robn: no | 13:39 |
| deadheron | vegpuff: i already installed it yes | 13:39 |
| robn | lawke: download the deb package to your desktop, then just double click it to install it | 13:39 |
| vegpuff | i thought 7.10 automatically takes care of it for ATI as well :( | 13:40 |
| Doomguy0505 | Please help!! | 13:40 |
| robn | roxlu: try running it and see what happens | 13:40 |
| Doomguy0505 | Gnome won't run! | 13:40 |
| deadheron | vegpuff: nope, when 7.10 came out, ati linux driver 8.42 wasnt released yet | 13:40 |
| vegpuff | deadheron: uh :( | 13:40 |
| deadheron | vegpuff: see the private chat i opened | 13:40 |
| Doomguy0505 | Can anyone help? | 13:41 |

| blakeg | sudo apt-get remove --purged kdelibs4 will work also if you need to purge | 13:44 |

| lardarse | profanephobia: replace the config file (i don't know the name of it) with a backup | 13:58 |
| blakeg | conrad0021: first off, the only way ive seen it work flawlessly for me is to install the following pkg's: build-essential, linux-headers-generic, pkg-config, xserver-org-dev | 13:58 |
| profanephobia | lardarse, what if i dont have a backup | 13:59 |
| === doglong is now known as arkho | ||
| conrad0021 | yeah well i know the driver wasn't working well | 13:59 |
| blakeg | conrad0021: then: sudo apt-get remove --purge nvidia-glx and nvidia-glx-new | 13:59 |

| lardarse | profanephobia: i think that if you've done sudo dpkg reconfigure xserver-xorg, then it should've created a backup | 13:59 |
| duudii | ;D | 13:59 |
| conrad0021 | yeah i shall have to get rid of them | 13:59 |
| profanephobia | lardarse, thanks | 14:00 |

| S4nD3r | hellowww | 14:06 |
| blakeg | dmaresca: what are you running in the background? | 14:06 |
| S4nD3r | Ubuntu comes with gnome2.20/? | 14:06 |
| dmaresca | just mirc and compiz-fusion | 14:06 |
| arnath | S4nD3r: yes | 14:06 |
| ompaul | Jacob, there are a few the easiest is to run "sudo updatedb" and then locate -i FIleName or part of that file name - if there are a lot of them then using locate -i FileName | less | 14:06 |
| Pici | S4nD3r: yes. | 14:06 |
| dmaresca | it was just fine a minute ago | 14:06 |
| Gyoza | Could anyone tell me what at yellow thing is? http://drss.reddragoncanoeclub.org/Gyoza/yellow_thing.png | 14:06 |
| S4nD3r | iupiiiiiii | 14:06 |
| S4nD3r | I will download this one | 14:07 |
| wolfgangx | hello, after i enable the ati restricted driver i cant use compiz anymore, says "the composite extension is not available" how do i fix that? | 14:07 |
| Doomguy0505 | For some reason the GDM will say it worked but simply flashes, maybe x11 isn't installed? | 14:07 |
| Gyoza | behind the Skype icon. | 14:07 |
| S4nD3r | Im using etch, but Im crazy to use new gnome | 14:07 |
| blakeg | doomguy0505: what comes up after a few minutes? | 14:07 |
| dmaresca | ??????? | 14:07 |
| Doomguy0505 | It stops flashing after a while and goes to text-mode login | 14:07 |
| blakeg | dmaresca: it depends on what you have running and configured. try a restart, see fi that helps | 14:08 |
| GuyFromHell | Sorry, one more stupid question, i have a list that i want to loop through a for but there are spaces and i only want it to split on newlines | 14:08 |
| blakeg | dmaresca: i cant really tell you whats wrong with your computer without actually being there | 14:08 |
| GuyFromHell | any better way than sedhacking the spaces away? | 14:08 |
| blakeg | doomguy0505: were you following the instructions i gave for installing the nvidia drivers? | 14:09 |
| Doomguy0505 | i use ati | 14:09 |
| blakeg | doomguy0505: oh, nm then | 14:09 |
| Doomguy0505 | I think the x11 isn't loading, because the console fonts aren't smoothened like usual | 14:09 |
| blakeg | doomguy0505: did you install the drivers through envy or manually or using restricted manager? | 14:10 |
| jotil | Doomguy0505: ps el | grep -i x | 14:10 |
| arnath | blakeg: btw, the tutorial you gave is for workstation? does it also work for server? | 14:10 |
| Doomguy0505 | I used an upgrade to 7.10 with the alternate cd | 14:10 |
| jotil | do you see x? | 14:11 |
| blakeg | arnath: hmm.. let me see what i have here | 14:11 |
| babo | what's the story with gimp 2.4 and ubuntu ? | 14:11 |
| auowE | I installed kOffice, it is not that much greater than AbiWord and moreover the pdfs generated with Kword are not good. | 14:11 |
| Pici | GuyFromHell: You'll probably get a faster response in #bash | 14:11 |
| jotil | Doomguy0505: if it was working with feisty, chances are it will work with Gutsy. | 14:11 |
| Doomguy0505 | So why does it not show? | 14:11 |
| spiekey | has someone here got a working /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf ? There are like hunndres of broken ones out there | 14:11 |
| blakeg | arnath: vmware server setup... http://www.howtoforge.com/vmware_server_1.0.4_plus_mui_ubuntu_7.04 | 14:12 |
| jotil | Doomguy0505: check you xorg error log | 14:12 |
| arnath | blakeg: hehe, thats actually the one i was following, but it requires xinetd :p | 14:12 |
| Doomguy0505 | where is that? | 14:12 |
| blakeg | arnath: for which part? | 14:12 |
| arnath | blakeg: which was the original problem, since the guy's laptop could not find the package | 14:12 |
| jopopo | <-- Is looking for someone who works with geany | 14:12 |
| jotil | somewhere in /var/logs | 14:12 |
| fatcatmatt | hey blakeg | 14:12 |
| blakeg | arnath: oh.. the very start | 14:13 |
| Doomguy0505 | ok | 14:13 |
| arnath | blakeg: it requires the super server for config | 14:13 |
| jotil | Doomguy0505: /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 14:13 |
| blakeg | arnath: well shoot... not sure what to tell ya on the xinetd. maybe try using aptoncd to backup the xinetd pkgs and then burn to a cd and take to the laptop? | 14:13 |
| blakeg | fatcatmatt: hi hi | 14:13 |
| hraefn | hello all | 14:14 |
| jopopo | hi , anyone know a good free Python IDE for ubuntu with code completion/calltips/symbols definition / etc ? | 14:14 |
| arnath | blakeg: ah could do that yes, you know of any reason why xinetd would not show up on the laptop? | 14:14 |
| al_ | #ubuntu | 14:14 |
| blakeg | arnath: no idea.. try checking your sources.list and also the gui for sources to see if anything is out of the ordinary or disabled... i know mine's set to download all the types of pkgs it can find | 14:15 |
| al_ | hey anyone | 14:15 |
| jasonago | how will i be able to log the chats in a certain channel? is there a free website service for that? | 14:15 |
| arnath | blakeg: will have a look at it next time :p thanks for your help :) | 14:15 |
| al_ | i have a PCI bios bug on a compaq | 14:15 |
| blakeg | arnath: not a problem | 14:15 |
| al_ | xcan some one help | 14:15 |
| dgjones | jasonago, which chat client do you use? i use xchat and you can set it in preferences | 14:16 |
| al_ | yea xchat is cool | 14:16 |
| snkmad | blakeg everythings fine! | 14:16 |
| al_ | i have it as well | 14:16 |
| blakeg | arnath: i isntalled the server version on gutsy, used that howto and it worked right the first time, so its gotta be something with that laptop or the sources | 14:16 |
| blakeg | snkmad: nvidia manual install worked for ya? | 14:16 |
| snkmad | no i used the restricted driver manager | 14:16 |
| snkmad | then i added my monitor | 14:16 |
| snkmad | and set the res i wanted | 14:17 |
| blakeg | snkmad: ahh, that works too :) | 14:17 |
| snkmad | strangely, i cant stand 60hz on win32, but here it seems fine ;P | 14:17 |
| wolfgangx | hello, after i enable the ati restricted driver i cant use compiz anymore, says "the composite extension is not available" how do i fix that? | 14:17 |
| bryang | what exactly triggers update-manager on say feisty to know that gutsy upgrade is available (for some reason when pointing to a local full internal mirror, clients don't see this), yet pointed to a public mirror triggers this | 14:17 |
| blakeg | snkmad: my 8800gts works fine with the restricted, but i dont like the name "restricted" so i removed it and did a manual install :D | 14:17 |
| arnath | blakeg: ye, i've had nothing but trouble with ubuntu on laptops so far :< | 14:18 |
| al_ | ok..ok i do | 14:18 |
| al_ | i have a compaq | 14:18 |

| Billie1 | i tried the disk partitioner, and it didnt work, im trying to access a filesharing network i had set up between 2 windows computers, i can access mshome, but i dont see any computers there | 14:18 |
| al_ | and its giving me hell | 14:18 |
| snkmad | well im too new to linux, id rather use some automatic install for now | 14:18 |
| Bonster | a | 14:18 |
| al_ | i have a pci bios bug | 14:18 |
| arnath | blakeg: that could be, that was definatly the case with the first laptop i tried it on, this laptop should be ok though | 14:18 |
| blakeg | arnath: well, ive got a laptop here that will run linux, but not windows.. fails every install.. | 14:18 |

| arnath | blakeg: heh nice :) | 14:19 |
| Vlet | al_: what's the problem? | 14:19 |
| cosmos | who use dynebolic? | 14:19 |
| blakeg | arnath: someone in here said it was a smart laptop.. lol | 14:19 |
| Billie1 | anyone know how to share files with a windows computer thats on the same network? not a disk or drive, the computer, like it used to be with 2 windows computers | 14:19 |
| arnath | blakeg: lOl :D | 14:20 |
| al_ | so can someone help wit this bios bug im having | 14:20 |
| joe__ | I just installed Ubuntu fiesty and I'm having some monitor problems. I'm running an Acer 1916w (widescreen) that has a natvie resolution of 1440x900. But when I add that resolution to the xorg.conf, and switch to it, the colors on my screen become shadowy and orange. I tried re-running the xorg-conf tool at the command line, but didn't get any better results. Can anyone help? | 14:20 |
| blakeg | okay.. brb | 14:20 |
| Jupp2 | Billiel, you can do it with Samba | 14:20 |
| Billie1 | i dont know how to use samba | 14:20 |
| dgjones | !samba | Billie1 | 14:20 |
| ubotu | Billie1: samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT | 14:20 |
| Vlet | Billie1: If you share a folder on the windows system, use the 'connect to server...' tool in your places menu | 14:20 |
| Doomguy0505 | jotil: VESA(0): No modes | 14:21 |
| Vlet | al_: Just ask your question | 14:21 |
| Billie1 | do i need to download and install samba? or does it come with gutsy gibon? | 14:21 |
| jotil | Doomguy0505: which driver did you use in gutsy? | 14:21 |
| tezem | Since I updated to Gutsy hibernate and suspend are not working anymore. I unloaded agpgart, the alsa modem driver from the kernel and stopped gdm. Finally I tried to suspend with echo 3 > /proc/acpi/sleep but this also doesn't work. It goes into sleep correctly as it seems but after I start the machine again the screen remains black. I can reboot with Ctrl+Alt+Del. I really cannot understand why this is not working anymore. (I have the nvidia proprietary driv | 14:21 |
| Doomguy0505 | An ATI one, but all I remember was it is radeon | 14:21 |
| Vlet | Billie1: it's in there. If you want to share things from the ubuntu system, it will install it automatically | 14:22 |
| vaur_ | bonjour | 14:22 |
| Stavros | What's the difference between openoffice.org and openoffice.org2? | 14:22 |
| ackbahr | Stavros: Version, obviously | 14:22 |
| Bonster | any good ogg p2p client? | 14:22 |
| jotil | Doomguy0505: i use nVidia, ask Vlet. he would know better about ATI. :P | 14:22 |
| Stavros | ackbahr: hmm, why isnt' either installed with ubuntu by default any more? | 14:23 |
| Billie1 | i know about ATIs hardware, cant say much about its relations with linux tho | 14:23 |
| Vlet | jotil: I would!? :o | 14:23 |
| Boones | is there any media-center software for ubuntu which works with a Athlon 2k+? | 14:23 |
| vaur_ | how can i change my resolution with consol ?? | 14:23 |
| Stavros | Boones: they all do | 14:23 |
| blakeg | boones: mythtv? | 14:23 |
| ackbahr | No idea, it's a pitty indeed.... Sure Feisty doesn't have it from the start? | 14:23 |
| jotil | Doomguy0505: but try running dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 14:23 |
| * vegpuff hugs and thanks deadheron for his patient, help | 14:23 | |
| Doomguy0505 | brb | 14:23 |
| Vlet | Bonster: you could try out Nicotine | 14:23 |
| Stavros | ackbahr: it used to, but i just did two gutsy installations and it's missing on both | 14:24 |
| Boones | i tried elisa Stavros but its just slows down nearly to freeze | 14:24 |
| blakeg | stavros: openoffice? | 14:24 |
| jotil | Vlet: i thought you have an ATI card with dual monitor? | 14:24 |
| Stavros | blakeg: yes | 14:24 |
| Stavros | Boones: hmm, that's odd... mythtv? | 14:24 |
| blakeg | stavros: install it from synaptic then | 14:24 |
| Vlet | jotil: oh, I did, but I got sick of ATI+ubuntu, so I bought an 8600 | 14:24 |
| vegpuff | whenever i create any file in ~/ , it apears in my desktop. please help! | 14:24 |
| Stavros | blakeg: i am, but it was great that it was bundled by default | 14:24 |
| Boones | i will try mythTV, thanks to both of you :) | 14:24 |
| mcflow | hey, I got a small problem with my nvidia 8600GTS in Ubuntu Feisty. I downloaded the latest driver from their official homepage and installed it. "glxinfo" tells me that everything is alright with the driver. But the screen is very very unsharp and quite hard to read. Can anyone give me some hints? | 14:24 |
| blakeg | it is if you install regular ubuntu | 14:25 |
| Stavros | mcflow: try envy? | 14:25 |
| jotil | Vlet: lol! now that is some dedication for the distro... | 14:25 |
| Stavros | mcflow: or disable font smoothing | 14:25 |
| Vlet | jotil: I didn't save my xorg (which I should have) but all I did was set up MergeFB per the forums instructions | 14:25 |
| mcflow | Stavros: thanks, how do i disable font smoothing? | 14:25 |
| andyshack | heya folks | 14:25 |
| blakeg | hiya andyshack | 14:26 |
| Stavros | mcflow: hmm, it's under preferences, font settings i think | 14:26 |
| Vlet | jotil: heh - well, $130 video card is still elss than a windows license, right :) | 14:26 |
| Stavros | mcflow: you'll see it there | 14:26 |
| Froggy31 | hi everybody | 14:26 |
| Froggy31 | one question | 14:26 |
| blakeg | go froggy | 14:26 |
| jotil | Vlet: i can't refute that argument. | 14:26 |
| Froggy31 | why I can't run the live cd on my computer | 14:26 |
| Vlet | Stavros: you mean that in your applications >> Office menu, you don't have any openoffice stuff installed? | 14:26 |
| Froggy31 | Ihave two grafix cards | 14:26 |
| mcflow | stavros: thanks i'll have a try | 14:27 |
| blakeg | froggy31: how much memory you have isntalled? | 14:27 |
| snkmad | how do i check my 3d/gl? glxinfo and glgears? | 14:27 |
| SuperLuigi | How would I get GNU gas by itself, as a .deb? sudo apt-get install gas says it's reffered to by another package (probably binutils) but it has no idea where to find it. Has anyone else used it? | 14:27 |
| Vlet | Froggy31: perhaps you need to set your CDrom as the first boot device in your bios? | 14:27 |
| Stavros | Vlet: yep : | 14:27 |
| Froggy31 | 2go | 14:27 |
| Stavros | :/ | 14:27 |
| andyshack | im having some trouble getting an ubuntu box (7) online. I can ping everything local although not resolve anything outside the wan. I tried adding my isp's dns IP to resolv.conf although that didnt work. any ideas at what I could look into ? | 14:27 |
| Vlet | Stavros: that's weird. It comes with gutsy | 14:27 |
| Froggy31 | it's done already | 14:27 |
| stone-unix | !nvidia | 14:27 |
| ubotu | To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 14:27 |
| blakeg | snkmad: glxinfo | grep direct, glxinfo | grep vendor, glxgears | 14:27 |
| andyshack | outside the lan even :) | 14:27 |
| blakeg | snkmad: all at the command line | 14:27 |
| Stavros | Vlet: that's odd... could it be that it was removed somehow? | 14:27 |
| blakeg | snkmad: or in a terminal i mean | 14:27 |
| Vlet | andyshack: tried bringing down and up eth0? | 14:28 |
| Stavros | i tried to install ispell but it was broken | 14:28 |
| snkmad | blakeg thx | 14:28 |
| Billie1 | do i have to install samba on the windows computer? | 14:28 |
| blakeg | snkmad: np | 14:28 |
| Stavros | Billie1: sudo aptitude install samba | 14:28 |
| Froggy31 | I red in a forum that I need to unmount one install ubuntu and then remount the second one | 14:28 |
| Boones | Billie1 no | 14:28 |
| blakeg | snkmad: post your glxgears info | 14:28 |
| Stavros | oh wait | 14:28 |
| Stavros | windows? you don't need to | 14:28 |
| Jupp2 | Billiel no | 14:28 |
| blakeg | snkmad: glxgears output rather | 14:28 |
| Becha_ | hi all , some one plz know how can i have a net support server on linux | 14:28 |
| andyshack | Vlet : yep | 14:28 |
| Becha_ | ?? | 14:28 |
| Mitsuo | i have a problem, my ubuntu won't boot! | 14:28 |
| Billie1 | because the laptop isnt showing up at mshome | 14:29 |
| blakeg | mitsuo: that sucks, but we need more info to help ya | 14:29 |
| Vlet | Becha_: could you be more specific? "net support" meaning connect to the internet? | 14:29 |
| Vlet | andyshack: set a gateway? | 14:29 |
| SuperLuigi | Mitsuo , That sounds like a rather unfortunate problem. Have you tried using LiveCD to see if it's a hardware problem? | 14:29 |
| Becha_ | vlet : no i m using a net support to supervise my network ( for broadcastin ) ??? | 14:30 |
| andyshack | Vlet : gateway is set and pingable | 14:30 |
| Vlet | andyshack: I don't recall how to do that... ubuntu is making me lazy. last time I did that manually was freebsd | 14:30 |
| croftyboy | can someone help me with mounting a fat32 hardrive under unbuntu 6.06 live cd? | 14:30 |
| Mitsuo | SuperLuigi: blakeg: on normal boot, it stops at full bar, on recovery, i cant boot either bunch of segfaults | 14:30 |
| Jupp2 | Billie1, what do mean it isn't showing at mshome? | 14:30 |
| Vlet | Becha_: what is a "net support" | 14:30 |
| snkmad | snkmad@snkmad-desktop:~$ glxinfo | grep direct | 14:30 |
| snkmad | direct rendering: Yes | 14:30 |

| snkmad | client glx vendor string: NVIDIA Corporation | 14:30 |
| snkmad | OpenGL vendor string: NVIDIA Corporation | 14:30 |
| agentSG | on Ubuntu 7.10, when I enable Visual effects, I lose the frames around all windows, so I can not move them and such. Any ideas! I have ATI card and it reports that restricted drivers are not needed. direct rendering enabled | 14:30 |
| snkmad | snkmad@snkmad-desktop:~$ glxgears | 14:30 |
| snkmad | 8908 frames in 5.0 seconds = 1781.553 FPS | 14:30 |

| andyshack | Vlet : i just used the GUI with networking. its in /interfaces/ somewhere to do it manually i think | 14:30 |
| snkmad | ops.... well its that ok? | 14:30 |
| Vlet | bad snkmad | 14:30 |
| Vlet | hehe | 14:30 |
| ghantoos | croftyboy: mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /mnt/ | 14:31 |
| Billie1 | i can access my laptop from any other windows computer on this network, but for some reason, the laptop isnt showing up after i try to connect to mshome, only the computer im on right now | 14:31 |
| blakeg | snkmad, nice, but next time, just your glxgears output :P | 14:31 |
| ghantoos | croftyboy: this is a e.g. | 14:31 |
| snkmad | bad coz of the FPS? | 14:31 |
| SuperLuigi | Well then Mitsuo, I guess it's a software problem. Have you been using sudo recently on something in, say, /bin , /boot , or /etc ? | 14:31 |
| === Billie1 is now known as billies | ||
| Mitsuo | SuperLuigi: nope | 14:31 |
| blakeg | snkmad: what gpu? | 14:31 |
| croftyboy | ghant: will i be able to write files to hard drive? I am trying to download something with firefox onto that drive? | 14:31 |
| Doomguy0505 | YES IT WORKS! | 14:31 |
| SuperLuigi | !paste | snkmad | 14:31 |
| ubotu | snkmad: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic) | 14:31 |
| Doomguy0505 | brb | 14:31 |
| Vlet | snkmad: no, one shouldn't paste more than 2 or 3 lines, otherwise it's considered flooding... don't worry bout it. | 14:32 |
| snkmad | geforce 6100 onboard, 128mb shared | 14:32 |
| croftyboy | thanx i will go and try that and come back | 14:32 |
| Stavros | has anyone set up ubuntu as an ldap client? | 14:32 |
| snkmad | SuperLuigi im sorry, wont do that again | 14:32 |
| blakeg | snkmad: aye, not bad for a built in card :) | 14:32 |
| SuperLuigi | Mitsuo , I fear for the life of your poor installation . | 14:32 |
| croftyboy | i do not need sudo in front of the mount command | 14:32 |
| cmo^wrk | sooo im new to this, just installed ubuntu server on a desktop at home.. i was expecting a GUI but was brought up to a cmd prompt... what am i missing here | 14:32 |
| Mitsuo | SuperLuigi: reinstall, you say? | 14:32 |
| Becha_ | vlet : netsupport is a software like VNcviewr ok ??? | 14:32 |
| Vlet | andyshack: do you have dhcp? I know you'll want a static IP, but is dhcp available? | 14:32 |
| gaetano | can someone help me installing an external dsl modem with conexant chip on my 7.04 ubuntu? | 14:33 |
| stefg | cmo^wrk: a GUI ? | 14:33 |
| stefg | !server | 14:33 |
| ubotu | Ubuntu Server Edition is a release of Ubuntu designed especially for server environments, including a server-specific !kernel and no !GUI. The install CD contains many server applications. Current !LTS version is 6.06. For more info see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ServerFaq/ - The #ubuntu-server channel provides specific support | 14:33 |
| blakeg | cmo^wrk: what distro, what version, livecd or alternate? | 14:33 |
| jotil | Mitsuo: could you paste these things? 1. the output of: df 2. /boot/grub/menu.lst | 14:33 |
| SuperLuigi | Mitsuo , Certainly not! I'm sure you can go in through liveCD and look through your files for a problem. After that, though, it quite probably will be reinstall time :-( | 14:33 |
| blakeg | cmo^wrk: yeah, server edition doesnt come with a gui at all | 14:34 |
| cmo^wrk | 7.10 Live CD | 14:34 |
| cmo^wrk | ok, i wasn't aware that the server was GUI-less thanks | 14:34 |
| stefg | cmo^wrk: enter 'sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop' to convert the server install into a full blown ubuntu | 14:34 |
| andyshack | Vlet : great party, I just checked in /network/interfaces at the config, dns wasnt being set by the gui. should work now I hope. | 14:34 |
| cmo^wrk | oh really, danke | 14:34 |
| snkmad | omg, i thought my onboard sound was going to die, was making some really distorced sound over winxp, but here it works great! | 14:34 |

| Alp` | how to delete all subfolders named ".svn" in a specified folder? i tried "find -name .svn -delete" but this works only for empty dirs. "find -name .svn | echo" should output me the output, right? but there is nothing. i am new to that pipe stuff | 15:00 |
| princex | dont have any probs with the big fan next to the little fan | 15:00 |
| embrace-Ubuntu | blakeg: thanks, but who ? | 15:00 |
| LiMaO | Alp`: rm -rf *.svn | 15:01 |

| Vlet | XsteelWolf: like wmv's? no. | 15:01 |
| blakeg | embrace-ubuntu: that was a question to the rest of the room | 15:01 |

| genii | Cyberai: Sounds like a refresh rate issue | 15:01 |
| embrace-Ubuntu | help: how to remove nvidia 7184 driver formerly installed with envy? | 15:01 |
| Cyberai | XsteelWolf, if you add the mint linux respostories and then install the codecs from there, most drm'd videos play | 15:01 |
| LiMaO | Alp`: if they are in a write protected folder, you should use 'sudo' before the command | 15:01 |
| Ongaku | princex: id say invest in better fans and a nice CPU cooler with heatpipes, wouldn't have to worry at all about it | 15:01 |
| jrib | Alp`: that won't do what you want | 15:01 |
| Lion31 | javaJake: sure... as I explained... it all works great! I just cant access the other computer (windows) | 15:01 |
| embrace-Ubuntu | blakeg: is envy safe now? | 15:01 |
| Seivan| | jrib yeah but LAMP comes ready configured :/ | 15:01 |
| Cyberai | genii - I agree, I just lack the expertise to fix it | 15:01 |
| embrace-Ubuntu | !envy | 15:01 |
| javaJake | Lion31, ooohhh | 15:01 |
| ubotu | envy is a script that may leave you envious of those who have not used it, use the resticted manager to install binary drivers or use the instructions on the wiki, this script may break your machine very badly! | 15:01 |

| Mitsuo | jotil: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/42075/ | 15:02 |
| nanonyme | btw, find | echo makes no sense imo | 15:02 |
| LiMaO | Alp`: it will remove all folders called .svn - that's just it | 15:02 |
| not_a_k | Vlet: i ran sudo ddcprobe | grep monitorrange. but that only gave me one set of ranges. how do I get both? ddcprobe doesn't seem to have a manpage. | 15:02 |

| embrace-Ubuntu | blakeg: ok, i give it a try. (i have problem accessing envy website, i am in china, it is blocked) | 15:02 |
| genii | Cyberai: you can install package read-edid. then in terminal to find modeline values for your monitor you can do: get-edid|parse-edid | 15:02 |

| kst | is there some other dvi viewer shipping with Ubuntu besides evince? does evince support forward search for dvi documents? | 15:03 |

| javaJake | Lion31, and replace ShareName with the name of the shared folder | 15:03 |
| Seivan| | jrib roger, thanks =) | 15:03 |
| blakeg | embrace-ubuntu: you dont ahve it installed anymore? | 15:03 |
| Bonster | whats the -rf means? | 15:03 |
| javaJake | Lion31, and replace AFolder with a name for the folder (can be anything) | 15:03 |
| Cyberai | genii, I tried running ddcprobe and I got the line dtiming: 1440x900@69, but forcing the vert rate to that kills X. I also ran gtf 1440 900 60 -x, and added the modeline to my monitors section, but no dice :( | 15:03 |
| princex | can you due boot kernals, in the same os, 64 bit + 32 bit ? | 15:03 |

| embrace-Ubuntu | blakeg: no, it is lost.... | 15:03 |
| princex | er dual kernals .. | 15:03 |
| Alp` | jrib: ok, then .svn should do the trick. but how i can do it recursivly | 15:03 |
| javaJake | Lion31, after all that, run "sudo apt-get install cifs" and "sudo mount /media/<AFolder>" | 15:03 |
| jrib | Alp`: with find | 15:03 |

| kst | arghh2d2 if you got your home partition on a separate partition, it wont be overwritten during reinstall.. when mounting that partition, just mount it as /home in the installer | 15:04 |

| arghh2d2 | kst, how to i find out how big my home folder is? df something? | 15:05 |
| dgjones | arghh2d2, do you have a seperate /home partition, if your do, you could reinstall telling the installer to mount your /home without formatting, although downgrades aren't recommended | 15:05 |
| blakeg | embrace-ubuntu: alt+f2 then type in 'envy' and see if that works | 15:06 |
| neol | Ongaku: hmm. | 15:06 |
| jotil | Mitsuo: one more thing, can you log into the recovery mode? | 15:06 |
| arghh2d2 | dgjones what can i expect from downgraging? | 15:06 |
| javaJake | arghh2d2, Applications -> Accessories -> Disk Usage Analyzer | 15:06 |
| jrib | Alp`: I thought -delete should work. You can pipe to 'xargs rm -rf-' I guess, but be careful. Mayxe 'xargs rm -ri' would be more prudent | 15:06 |
| Seivan| | jrib what about myPHPAdmin or sqlLIte | 15:06 |
| Mitsuo | jotil: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/42076/, no i cant.. | 15:06 |
| dgjones | !downgrade | arghh2d2 | 15:06 |
| ubotu | arghh2d2: Attempting to downgrade to an older Ubuntu version is explicitly not supported, and may break your system. | 15:06 |

| arghh2d2 | dgjones: that makes sense, thanks for the help | 15:08 |
| javaJake | Lion31, if "sudo apt-get install cifs" doesn't work, try skipping it - it may already be installed. | 15:08 |
| al_ | ok ongaku.. i hava a pci bios bug error | 15:08 |
| dgjones | arghh2d2, no probs | 15:08 |
| Alp` | jrib: xargs works, thanks | 15:08 |

| DShepherd | kst, you can do it through the baobab gui tool. run du -cks | 15:08 |
| Vlet | neol: there are other ways, but nothing easier. Why not samba? | 15:08 |
| Ongaku | al_: oh lol I couldn't help there :( I run on a laptop | 15:08 |

| Mitsuo | jotil: then it hangs | 15:08 |
| al_ | me too | 15:08 |
| al_ | im on a compaq laptop | 15:08 |
| docubaseTech | any scripting gurus with knowledge of w3m? | 15:08 |
| kst | DShepherd come again? :) | 15:08 |
| Whitor | Bonster: how ? | 15:08 |
| Ongaku | al_ : oh | 15:09 |
| jotil | Mitsuo: that looks like a mess.. | 15:09 |
| Gigi | Hey guys, does FEBE work good for you? I installed it (Gutsy) and after configuring it, I click on backup and does nothing... | 15:09 |
| neol | Vlet: just out of curiosity... will continue with samba | 15:09 |
| Ongaku | al_: never had that problem heh | 15:09 |
| Bonster | Whitor: sys>admin>soft sources | 15:09 |

| lardarse | how do i prevent certain package installs from requiring me to (re-)insert the cd? | 15:09 |
| al_ | and i want gusty | 15:09 |
| DShepherd | kst, you can run the command du -cks in your home folder to get how big it is | 15:09 |
| al_ | but cant run 7.04 | 15:09 |
| Mitsuo | jotil: is there hope? | 15:09 |
| Ongaku | al_: why can't you | 15:09 |
| DShepherd | kst, there is also a gui in gnome. applications -- accessories -- disk analyzer too | 15:09 |
| kst | ah ok, that wasn't my question tho DShepherd, I was helping someone else ;-) | 15:09 |
| kst | I know about that tool already :p | 15:10 |
| LiMaO | Alp`: oh, didn't know you wanted it to be recursive, sorry | 15:10 |
| Whitor | Bonster: then what ? | 15:10 |
| al_ | the screen turns white and the only option i have is turning off machine | 15:10 |
| DShepherd | kst, oh. sorry. i mixed up the names | 15:10 |
| Ongaku | al_; maybe an error while installing possibly | 15:10 |
| genii | Ward1983: Stick some media in there then see in terminal if it saw it by: tail dmesg It may say what device ir not, but usually something useful one way or another. You could use pastebin website to post this for us to read if it makes no sense | 15:10 |
| al_ | possibly | 15:10 |
| LiMaO | al_: whenever that happens, do not turn off the machine. hit ctrl+alt+backspac3 | 15:10 |

| arghh2d2 | Anybody know if ubuntu is planning to release any patchwork updates soon? my system is buggin out pretty bad. | 15:11 |
| keito | jewel: ext3 need a driver to support windows | 15:11 |
| jotil | Mitsuo: can you see /var/log/debug.log - it should be /dev/sda2/var/log/debug.log if you are running livecd | 15:11 |
| blakeg | embrace-ubuntu: do you have an old version of your xorg.conf? | 15:11 |
| lardarse | !aptitude | 15:11 |
| ubotu | aptitude is another terminal-based front-end to APT, like apt-get. However, aptitude can remember the dependencies installed with a package and remove them if you uninstall. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptitudeSurvivalGuide | 15:11 |
| Dr_willis | jeward, windows can read ext2/3 with the proper driver, or linux can read/write fat32 (proberly best to use fat32) | 15:11 |

| Dr_willis | doh wrong nick. sorry | 15:11 |

| keito | !ext3 | jewel | 15:12 |

| keito | !reiserfs | 15:14 |
| ubotu | reiserfs is a journalling file system, which outperforms many others on I/O operations, but has drawbacks (such as increasing likelihood of data loss, and introducing latency unsuitable for gaming or real-time audio). Using !ext3, the default on Ubuntu, is *highly* recommended. A read-only Windows driver is available at http://p-nand-q.com/download/rfstool.html | 15:14 |

| OldPink | Hi there guys. I reported a bug in Gutsy a while back and recently developed a fix. I've uploaded the fix options and resources to launchpad (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.20/+bug/155436) but would like to inform someone I've done this so it can be included in Gutsy/Hardy. Who can I send this to? | 16:14 |
| isasuke_ | how can i find inttypes.h when i install mplayer?? | 16:14 |
| jeroen__ | I have a networkdrive which I wanna access via samba | 16:14 |
| joanki | lardarse, and today when i came back from suspend, no screen whatsoever , just a blank screen | 16:15 |
| Op3r | joanki, just open up the terminal ang type sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart :) | 16:15 |
| johnficca | so I installed gutsy and it seems like my Internet is now very slow, is this a ubuntu software problem or is it my hardware? | 16:15 |

| Op3r | joanki, it restarts your net connections :D | 16:15 |
| joanki | sudo /etc/init.d/networking | 16:15 |
| joanki | ok | 16:15 |
| joanki | i will try that next time | 16:15 |
| jotil | joanki: will restart your networking services | 16:15 |
| joanki | type it exactly like that, right? | 16:16 |
| KevinO0O0o | ScorpKing: even with swap as a logical drive, it says that the rest of the space is unuseable | 16:16 |
| Op3r | yep /etc/init.d/networking restart | 16:16 |

| SlimeyPete | (IIRC) | 16:53 |

| Stavros | i'm not sure if the FS creates a new file and links it to the HL | 16:55 |

| stefg | gaetano: lsusb does nothing but get a vendor ID. So you have to find out if it's a winmodem (this means doesn't have a microcontroller), and check if there's a driver available for it. USB is bad in this case. I'd you need some resricted driver for it | 17:11 |

| pike_ | limpio: if your comfortable with cli i usually just use server install then apt-get install xserver-xorg xfonts-base fluxbox or whatever | 18:14 |
| shearn89 | nila: try wicd? | 18:14 |
| Myrtti | hirak99: login with ssh -Y | 18:15 |
| nila | shearn - whats that? | 18:15 |
| Pici | blue|palm: Yes, but did you install the xgl server when you installed your ati drivers? Theres currently a bug with xgl that causes it to not work with wacom tablets. | 18:15 |
| the_weekend | Myrtti: i was afraid to logout | 18:15 |
| FluxD | LonelyDragon: /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 18:15 |
| robin | i pressed the wrong button when installing ubuntu and formatted my whole hdd with all my data - im such a tool - i then tried installing compiz but now i lost all the animation in my windows in gutsy and i cant get into the compiz settings | 18:15 |
| shearn89 | nila: its a different network manager, which runs on bootup and doesn't require you to unlock it everytime it starts. | 18:15 |
| the_weekend | Myrtti: since my upgrade has had problems, i didn't want to risk getting locked out | 18:15 |
| limpio | pike_, did you mean just put 'server' at the boot prompt with the regular install cd? | 18:15 |
| blue|palm | Pici, no... the only package that was installed was the ati drivers from restriced driver manager | 18:15 |

| garu | shearn89 how do I get wicd? | 18:16 |
| shearn89 | nila: thats what i mean. It can remember the password, and automagically do it. There is a howto on the forums. | 18:16 |
| the_weekend | Myrtti: usually you don't need to be in single mode to run an ubuntu upgrade, but do you think if i shut down X i could probabyl upgrade gdm and solve the dependency problems? | 18:16 |
| limpio | pike_, what's the parameter? server or server install? | 18:16 |
| shearn89 | nila: go to google and do "wicd howto site:ubuntuforums.org" | 18:16 |
| Myrtti | the_weekend: could be, though I'm not sure | 18:17 |

| void^ | jdong: it seems there might be some problem with azureus and icedtea after all, at least on 64bit and the icedtea version in gutsy repos. i get this kind of crash with current azureus cvs as well as with your 2.5.0.4 package: http://rafb.net/p/usAG6344.html - with a blank .azureus it crashes as soon as it starts the autoupdater torrent. | 18:30 |
| lardarse | Kevinm: if windows is already installed, then you won't lose it | 18:30 |
| nerdygirl_ellie | ScarEye: uname -r | 18:30 |
| Pici | ScarEye: uname -a | 18:30 |
| ccb0x45 | yea im using mythbuntu... so I guess myth buntu doesnt come with the settings stuff? | 18:30 |
| KNY | ScarEye, `uname` | 18:30 |
| frojnd1 | nerdygirl_ellie, I'm on gutsy | 18:30 |
| christian_ | sparrw, Not so far :) Well, what do you mean? Wrong channel to ask the question? Well it got messed up after I upgraded. | 18:30 |
| ScarEye | Thanks nerdygirl_ellie | 18:30 |
| Kevinm | lardarse, will I lose any of my other data as well? | 18:30 |
| Pici | ccb0x45: I dont know what it comes with, I dont know if its gnome or kde or something completely different. | 18:30 |
| nerdygirl_ellie | frojnd1: I'm sorry, I don't remember. I checking the man pages | 18:30 |
| hwilde | nerdygirl_ellie, are you a rambling wreck ? | 18:30 |
| sparrw | christian_: you can ignore that error. everyone who upgrades python gets it. | 18:30 |
| fuzzyt | uname -r | 18:30 |
| Pici | ccb0x45: Thats why I think you should find specific mythbuntu support | 18:30 |
| ccb0x45 | Pici cal you tell from that screenshot? http://www.mythbuntu.org/files/images/7.10_final_desktop.preview.png | 18:30 |
| nerdygirl_ellie | hwilde: ?! | 18:30 |
| thedude1373 | can anyone help me with the new ati drivers? | 18:30 |
| pike_ | Vov4ik: basically there are two issues. you have a file on ubuntu that tells it where your home dir should be this is /etc/passwd so since this hasnt changed then all you need to do is create that directory in /home you can do this by rebooting in recovery mode and doing mkdir /home/whateverusername;chown whateverusername:whateverusername /home/whateverusername and reboot. that should be it | 18:30 |
| hwilde | nerdygirl_ellie, georgia tech ? | 18:31 |
| christian_ | sparrw, okay, but my game won't start. Any suggestions to what I should do ? | 18:31 |
| JohnsonFarms | Does anyone know a method to install ubuntu with only floppy disks? | 18:31 |
| Pici | ccb0x45: could be xfce, but honestly, I've enver used it. | 18:31 |
| sparrw | christian_: not a clue, tried the transgaming forums? | 18:31 |
| KNY | cox, check your indexing preferences (System > Preferences > Indexing Preferences) | 18:31 |
| dox | 7quit | 18:31 |
| lardarse | Kevinm: you shouldn't do, although backing up would not be a bad idea | 18:31 |
| EvilAIM | I would love a console stuck right into the wall paper sorta thing... | 18:31 |
| Lava | thanks KNY en sparrw | 18:31 |
| ccb0x45 | Pici, xfce that is what it is | 18:31 |
| Lava | it worked | 18:31 |
| EvilAIM | Anyone? | 18:31 |
| christian_ | sparrw, ok thank you. | 18:31 |
| KNY | Lava, no problem | 18:31 |
| Pici | ccb0x45: you could try #xubuntu... | 18:31 |
| nerdygirl_ellie | frojnd1: iwconfig sets parameters, iwlist scan will search for networks. IIRC, you have to set the AP mac address and ssid with iwconfig and it will work. | 18:31 |
| pike_ | JohnsonFarms: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation | 18:31 |
| sparrw | JohnsonFarms: best of luck with that. your best bet is to install debian from floppies, then bootstrap your way into ubuntu | 18:31 |
| ccb0x45 | Pici ok thanks | 18:31 |
| hwilde | EvilAIM, I think you can set you desktop background to a webpage, maybe you can embed the terminal in that somehow | 18:31 |
| FluxD | EvilAIM: google on forums for transparent terminal | 18:31 |
| nerdygirl_ellie | Georgia Tech, No... Just a little north, Tennessee. | 18:31 |
| jdong | void^: does it work with Sun JRE in amd64? | 18:32 |
| FluxD | EvilAIM: I mean search | 18:32 |
| Kevinm | Lardarse, thanks for the information, can't wait to finally put ubuntu on my system, this thing deens to defrag faster :P | 18:32 |
| mike__ | JohnsonFarms: I hope you have 600 floppies! | 18:32 |
| pike_ | JohnsonFarms: iow it may be easier to install it to a hd and move that hd to the computer that doesnt have cdrom drive | 18:32 |
| nerdygirl_ellie | frojnd1: btw you won't be able to connect to wpa that way. | 18:32 |
| EvilAIM | I already have the transparent terminal;) | 18:32 |
| pike_ | JohnsonFarms: though that too means editing some files i guess | 18:32 |
| EvilAIM | I just wanna embed it in the back or atleast remove all the border from it. | 18:32 |
| frojnd1 | nerdygirl_ellie, I am new here... please tell more about it | 18:32 |
| EvilAIM | but theres no options for that... | 18:32 |
| thedude1373 | can anyone help me with the new ati drivers? | 18:32 |
| nerdygirl_ellie | frojnd1: I've never setup wpa through the command line. | 18:32 |
| FluxD | EvilAIM: look for the one with devilspie | 18:32 |
| Pici | !devilspie | EvilAIM | 18:32 |
| ubotu | EvilAIM: devilspie is a tool that performs actions on windows in GNOME's metacity such as resizing, positioning, and pinning. Usage information can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Devilspie | 18:32 |

| KeKoS | hi, I just bought an Ipod 80gb, and I'm trying to load songs to it. I've used gtkpod to do so, and it says that the files have been transferred, but when I disconnect the Ipod from the usb it says that it has no music. any ideas? | 18:32 |
| frojnd1 | nerdygirl_ellie, tell me the other way | 18:33 |
| Pici | EvilAIM: Thats what you want, devilspie ;) | 18:33 |
| void^ | jdong: yes | 18:33 |
| nerdygirl_ellie | frojnd1: why can't you use network manager? | 18:33 |
| KNY | KeKoS, amaroK | 18:33 |
| frojnd1 | nerdygirl_ellie, network manager doesn't work :S | 18:33 |
| FluxD | Pici: I had one problem with devilspie it would alwyas load after gnome-terminal how can I change order? | 18:33 |
| nerdygirl_ellie | frojnd1: Do you know if your network card is recognized? | 18:33 |
| pike_ | KeKoS: you have to update or save changes did you do that in gtkpod? | 18:33 |
| lgc_ | JohnsonFarms, you're better off trying some smaller distro, like Puppy Linux or Damn Small Linux. Even Debian has a minimalistic version (though I don't know if it's self-contained). | 18:33 |
| pike_ | KeKoS: i use gtkpod in 5.5 gen ipod no issues | 18:34 |
| Pici | FluxD: um.. I think you might be able to move things up and down in the gnome sessions startup properties | 18:34 |
| JohnsonFarms | ok, thanks | 18:34 |

I've asked in #ubuntustudio too but it's a bit quiet in there | 18:35 |

| lardarse | any suggestions for screen capturing video in ubuntu? | 18:35 |
| nerdygirl_ellie | my_haz: ACTV should do it. | 18:35 |
| FluxD | frojnd1: try iwconfig before that | 18:35 |
| pike_ | !screencast | lardarse | 18:36 |
| ubotu | lardarse: Some programs to capture your screen are Istanbul, Wink, Gvidcap, Xvidcap, vnc2swf, demorecorder. Also see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ScreenCasts. | 18:36 |
| Pici | FluxD: oh. I'm not sure, I would think it would be under ~/.gnome2/ somewhere. | 18:36 |

| Hasher | Mr go into places | 19:26 |
| _nx | I can't get alt-f4 to close windows, even though it's set in 'Keyboard Shortcuts'. What could cause this? | 19:26 |
| times9 | and it defaults to this stupid junk | 19:26 |
| joerack | Hello guys! MY ubuntu 7.10 pc looks like slower and internet seemed like slowed down- Are there any O.S optimization tools out there? thanks for your help. | 19:26 |
| adac2 | Rubin: how is the program called that is doing that? | 19:26 |
| Hasher | then select the partition on which you have windows | 19:27 |
| Mr | Hasher: I am in vista at the moment ^^ | 19:27 |
| Vov4ik | I need to install ssh shell. please tell us how to do it! | 19:27 |
| Vov4ik | !ssh | 19:27 |
| ubotu | SSH is the Secure SHell protocol. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto for usage. Putty is a nice SSH client for Windows; it can be found at http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ | 19:27 |
| Hasher | and yopu can access all the files | 19:27 |
| Rubin | times9, and .gnome and .gnome2? do you have the ubuntu-desktop package installed? | 19:27 |
| times9 | no metacity, no way to log out (i,e, nothing happens when i click the logout button), and no theme manager | 19:27 |
| === some8766 is now known as critical_moment | ||
| times9 | let me check | 19:27 |
| Hasher | Mr i have never done it from vista, but from Gutsy its easy | 19:27 |

| McOwnage | Hello againhave 7.10 trying to install xampp I go to terminal type su it asks for password i type in password and get su:Authentication failure Sorry. why is it failing? it is the right password | 19:27 |
| Mr | Hasher: Ok but under Vista it doesnt show me another partition because it doesn't accept the ext3 format | 19:27 |
| Rubin | adac2, its a little icon in the upper right hand. oh. i dunno about kde :) | 19:27 |
| _nx | Vov4ik, use synaptic, search for ssh, and install openSSH server. | 19:28 |
| times9 | rubin: ubuntu-desktop is installed | 19:28 |
| Mr | Hasher: But thanks now I at least got a communication in one way ;) | 19:28 |

| Rubin | times9: huh. try creating a new user, and see if you can login as him. | 19:28 |
| maddentim | Mr: there is a driver you can install on Windows to allow you to access the Ubuntu partitions | 19:28 |
| Rubin | mr: theres tools to write to NTFS partitions, but some consider them risky to use | 19:28 |
| times9 | rubin: nothing relevant in .gnome except for an SNES emulator :) | 19:28 |
| Profanephobia | Borysek, add this to xorg.conf and see if it works http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/42140/ | 19:28 |
| FluxD | Mr: I think its called ext2idc or something like that | 19:28 |
| Profanephobia | Borysek, tell me once thats added | 19:29 |
| maddentim | i forget the name of the driver, but if you google search ext2 windows you should be to find it | 19:29 |
| joerack | Hello guys! MY ubuntu 7.10 pc looks like slower and internet seemed like slowed down- Are there any O.S optimization tools out there? thanks for your help. | 19:29 |
| Rubin | times9, its either something funky about your account permissions, your home directory, or a borked install of ubuntu. We should try to rule things out till you figure out which | 19:29 |
| Mr | Rubin: Risky in what way? | 19:29 |
| FluxD | frojnd1: follow the tutorial link I gave u u will get there :) | 19:29 |
| kslater | Gutsy Gibbon upgrade on a Thinkpad T20 has gone really bad. Wife's laptop. Could use hints. | 19:29 |
| maddentim | the only thing is you have to right click the installer app and set it to XP compatibility mode | 19:29 |
| times9 | rubin: lol @ "borked" | 19:29 |
| maddentim | otherwise it won't run | 19:30 |
| times9 | ok let me make another account and log in under that | 19:30 |
| Profanephobia | Borysek, sry just realized that a closing " is missing after Composite "enable | 19:30 |
| MustafaTemizel | hi | 19:30 |
| Rubin | Mr: microsoft wont publish specs on how to write to ntfs, so its all been created by guessing. so its possible it could destroy the partition and data (though unlikely) | 19:30 |
| times9 | rubin: if the other account works, should i just copy the session file over? | 19:30 |
| don-o | Rubin, Mr: i think its generally considered stable now. http://www.ntfs-3g.org/ "The driver is in STABLE status since February 2007, after twelve years of development." | 19:30 |
| mikl | I need to mirror my storage volume - what should I pick - EVMS, LVM or something completely different? | 19:30 |

| mumrah | I have researched this extensively | 19:40 |
| aaron_ | i had it set up once where i could just type "ssh 10.10.1.25" and it would automatically know that it was supposed to connect to that host on port 98 | 19:40 |
| Rubin | mumrah, if its not on the web, its not likely anyone here will know. though, try sudo /etc/init.d/dbus restart | 19:40 |
| cvance | aaron you could use an alias | 19:40 |
| Matir | aaron_, edit ~/.ssh/config | 19:40 |
| Rubin | it'll break some stuff like battery mon, but may fix network | 19:40 |

| Layer8 | hi I need some help whith pluggable auth modules | 19:46 |
| moose11142qwerty | I fixed the mounting at /home/ issue but synaptic wont work after i updated the system. I mounted it as /home/ when it was updating. | 19:46 |
| Pici | cvd: Try asking in #openoffice.org | 19:46 |
| DShepherd | DaSkreech, does wine have an irc channel? | 19:46 |
| Cpudan80 | dmaresca: VNC uses a different port | 19:46 |
| Rubin | docubaseTech, to access ubuntu from windows, you need to configure samba | 19:46 |
| cvd | ok thans | 19:46 |
| dmaresca | no duh Cpudan80 its 5900 | 19:47 |
| Rubin | moose11142qwerty, i dont follow ? | 19:47 |
| docubaseTech | ah, i seem to remember something about that.. | 19:47 |
| dmaresca | well 5906 for the pc im going to | 19:47 |
| DaSkreech | DShepherd: I'm in there but this is a edgy machine | 19:47 |
| critical_moment | pike: i have a hauppauge card. I had it installed and working, but when I rebooted the login statys paralized and cant login | 19:47 |
| DaSkreech | I think that it's far too out of date for the answers to align | 19:47 |
| nightwatch | hi there, is there how can I install java in gusty for 64bits? | 19:47 |
| DShepherd | DaSkreech, ok and its not your place to upgrade? | 19:48 |
| DaSkreech | DShepherd: And the one guy I'm talking to just spilt :) | 19:48 |
| moose11142qwerty | Rubin, First after i installed gutsy i updated it. Now synaptic or the update software wont work. I think it has to do with that i mounted an ntfs volume when updating but im not really sure. | 19:48 |
| cvd | hey i i change my fat32 /media/files owner root to owner cvd? | 19:48 |
| siloko | solved in case anyone was interested - after gutsy there was a conflict with my previously installed trevi version and the native ubuntu version - preventing the former firing - removed trevi's repos from apt updated, removed the settings manager package then reinstalled (obviously from the official ubuntu repo) and all is well! | 19:48 |
| DaSkreech | DShepherd: You want me to sit here and watch a Windows install AND two buntu upgrades? | 19:48 |
| cvd | how | 19:48 |
| moose11142qwerty | mounted it as /home/ | 19:48 |
| Rubin | moose11142qwerty, i dont understand what you mean by 'i mounted an ntfs partition while updating' | 19:48 |
| DShepherd | DaSkreech, nope. but if you want to go ahead | 19:48 |
| Rubin | updater doesnt involve mounting partitions.. | 19:48 |
| kslater | Rubin: I think part of my boot problem might be that Gutsy thinks I have a floppy (fd0), but I don't | 19:49 |
| kslater | not sure why it thinks there's one connected | 19:49 |
| Gek_ | With vnc... .i'm only able to view the remote desktop.. I'm not able to actually log in using vnc | 19:49 |
| Rubin | kslater, hmm why do you think it thinks there is one? | 19:49 |
| Gek_ | can i make it so that I'm able to do that ? | 19:49 |
| DaSkreech | DShepherd: they can't afford me :) | 19:49 |
| moose11142qwerty | Rubin, something like this, mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdb2/ /home/ -o force while i was updating the system and i think it messed things up. | 19:50 |
| kslater | saw some errors concerning fd0 go buy during one of my boot attempts | 19:50 |
| kslater | s/buy/by | 19:50 |
| DShepherd | DaSkreech, haha. ok | 19:50 |
| DaSkreech | DShepherd: They are getting to like Tux so I'm going to reinstall Windows and come back over and gutsy them up | 19:50 |

| erpie | guys how to make a multisession dvd with gnomebaker? | 19:50 |

| _gpg_ | is there any link explaining how to make icons ? (icons design in open source software) | 19:50 |

| DShepherd | DaSkreech, i see where you are getting at | 19:51 |

| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about microphone - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 20:01 |

| Whitor | What is a good wysiwyg html editor? | 20:02 |
| Rubin | murlidhar, i dont know anything about opera. | 20:02 |
| hyper_ch | Whitor: nvu | 20:02 |
| hyper_ch | Whitor: but why use a wysiwyg editor? | 20:02 |
| Rubin | murlidhar, maybe missing some libraries? | 20:02 |
| Exoide | hyper_ch, I was looking in the ATI website and I didn't see anything | 20:02 |
| cosmodad | how do I restart the GNOME GUI "interface" again? not gdm, just a "refresh" of the GUI. | 20:02 |
| murlidhar | Rubin: i installed it from repos | 20:02 |
| Mr_Ruke | I think so to. But got home from work today and my ADSL modem had hung during the day (why is a good question). However my router (Endian Firewall) was alive and kicking. | 20:02 |
| Pici | !nvu | Whitor | 20:02 |
| ubotu | Whitor: kompozer is a WYSIWYG HTML editor for easily creating web pages, and the continuation of the dead Nvu project. It will be in the Ubuntu repos for 7.10 ("gutsy"); meanwhile for other versions add the following to your /etc/apt/sources.list: "deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/tonyyarusso/ubuntu {edgy,feisty} universe" (pick your release and list it without brackets, and no quotes) | 20:02 |
| Rubin | cosmodad, gdm is the interface that you enter your user/pass into. gnome is one option of what you get after you log in | 20:03 |
| cvd | !sudo | cvd ? | 20:03 |
| ubotu | cvd ?: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information. | 20:03 |
| murlidhar | !info nvu | Whitor | 20:03 |
| ubotu | whitor: Package nvu does not exist in gutsy | 20:03 |
| cosmodad | Rubin: I refer to GNOME. I want to reload the applet bar. | 20:03 |
| invulnerabilis` | hey, i want to reinstall ubuntu (i got a seperate home partition). when i'll delete root&boot and then install ubuntu again, will my desktop area (skins of programs, settings of programs) still be alive ? | 20:03 |
| Mr_Ruke | My brand new Ubuntu 7.10 Gutsy was booting like normal but after logging in it took me 20 minutes to get to the desktop with an error on screen complainig that the switch user function had crashed | 20:03 |
| Rubin | cosmodad, your panel is gone? | 20:04 |
| kslater | found this thread about the fd0 phantom device: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.20/+bug/95857 | 20:04 |

| Vov4ik | How i can change region? From USA to my country? | 20:04 |
| cosmodad | Rubin: no it's not. But I installed timer-applet and cannot seem to find it, so I thought some kind of refresh might help. | 20:04 |
| m4ytt | bin ive just switched over from xp and got ntfs on second drive and tried some forums but there in nooby language. i tried to follow instructions and came over errors if some 1 could talk me throuht it would be great | 20:04 |
| murlidhar | when i start opera it doesn't show up however i can see it in the system monitor . here is pastebin when i start opera from terminal http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/42144/ | 20:04 |
| invulnerabilis` | thanks hyper_ch | 20:04 |
| Hraefn | hmm...think I'll take my issue to launchpad... | 20:04 |
| cosmodad | Rubin: I think this refresh used to be suggested when new installed apps don't show up in the menu too. | 20:04 |
| Rubin | cosmodad, after you install applets on your system, you have to run them in a panel. right click.. | 20:05 |
| GenNMX | If I get pushed back to BusyBox, is there a way to check dmesg just in case something wasn't printed to console? I do have "debug loglevel=7" added to the kernel parameters, but I want to be sure. | 20:05 |
| Mr_Ruke | So I tried restarting several times without luck. Thereafter i finaly figured out the problem when trying to search for a solution on another one of my mashines (ADSL had died). | 20:05 |
| hyper_ch | invulnerabilis`: you can also mount that partition with the manual partitioning as /home... just make sure you don't set the "format" option | 20:05 |
| m4ytt | i mean not in nooby language | 20:05 |
| cosmodad | Rubin: I tried, but the applet isn't in the list of available applet.s | 20:05 |

| Rubin | Mr_Ruke, would be interesting to look at top and maybe /var/log/* to see what was going on | 20:05 |
| Pici | Whitor: right, kompozer does, thats what ubotu said | 20:05 |

| GenNMX | Borysek: /connect irc.server.org | 20:06 |
| Mr_Ruke | Rubin, I did look at top (from console (was working just as it should)) but system was runinng on idle. Nothing to report. | 20:06 |
| Whitor | m4ytt: whats your issue? | 20:06 |
| Borysek | GenNMX: but it will disconnect me with freenode, right? | 20:07 |
| cosmodad | Rubin: yeah I know that might work. But hey, this is Linux. :) | 20:07 |
| m4ytt | i want to mount an ntfs disk | 20:07 |

| frojnd1 | Rubin, and how can I check what number is ndiswrapper ? | 20:07 |
| GenNMX | Borysek: No, not unless you try connecting to the same server on the same port | 20:07 |
| Rubin | frojnd1, lsmod | 20:07 |
| Pici | Borysek: no, /server will disconnect you, /connect starts a new connection | 20:07 |
| Vov4ik | How i can change region? From USA to my country? | 20:07 |
| Borysek | Thanks. | 20:07 |
| hyper_ch | gumpish: you should be able to play .vob files directly in vlc | 20:07 |
| gumpish | I'm not worried about play back, I need a file I can edit, splice, etc. | 20:08 |

| gumpish | =/ | 20:08 |
| frojnd1 | Rubin, thanx again :) | 20:08 |
| Mr_Ruke | It was just the Gnome part that fucked up. System even ran fast in the gdm before logging in. But as soon as you pressed the login button the gnome system went from Formula 1 to Old_rusty_heap with 1hp 4-stroke on a 2-ton chassis | 20:08 |

| opexoc | Why I can't mount audio cd but in sound jucer i can listen the music? | 20:28 |

| desolator[work] | nm lol | 20:29 |
| tzvikaz | <Jordan_U> it now works. byt only after i wrote that command i mentioned before. i dont want to write that command everytime i restart! | 20:29 |
| desolator[work] | I thought deb was a bash command ^^ | 20:29 |
| Jordan_U | tzvikaz, Try setting it to "roaming mode" and connecting with the network manger applet at the top right of your screen | 20:29 |
| Gigi | Hey guys, does FEBE work good for you? I installed it (Gutsy) and after configuring it, I click on backup and does nothing... | 20:29 |

| kiran_20071026 | To automatically answer a question on IM - I want to write something which does that | 20:29 |
| ActySofts | how do I change the default sound card? | 20:30 |
| kiran_20071026 | it looks that there is a question now on my IM | 20:30 |
| Jordan_U | kiran_20071026, You mean a bot? | 20:30 |
| kiran_20071026 | yes... | 20:30 |
| src | ActySofts, asoundconf ? | 20:30 |
| picard_pwns_kirk | Gimmie doesn't correctly report my status and buddies online with Pidgin, is there a patch for that? | 20:30 |
| kiran_20071026 | but not for an IRC bot | 20:30 |
| ActySofts | src: lemme see | 20:30 |
| kiran_20071026 | Users can connect to it using Y!, Gtalk,etc | 20:30 |
| pike_ | ActySofts: you can also just disable it in bios if you want to save resources and its onboard sound | 20:30 |
| kiran_20071026 | I searched the internet quite a bit | 20:31 |
| kiran_20071026 | and have come up with jYMSG | 20:31 |
| ActySofts | I did | 20:31 |
| kiran_20071026 | and libpurple and libyahoo2 | 20:31 |
| desolator[work] | ok so, on another topic: Have you guys managed to run a nForce RAID in Ubuntu? | 20:31 |
| ActySofts | and now it sends the error beeps to the mb speaker instead of my other sound card | 20:31 |
| kiran_20071026 | I have had no luck with jYMSG | 20:31 |
| kiran_20071026 | and libpurple looks a bit scary | 20:31 |
| kiran_20071026 | in C | 20:31 |
| kiran_20071026 | I have downloaded the entire pigdin library | 20:31 |
| riotkittie | ActySofts: if you have onboard and a soundcard your best bet may be to disable onboard sound in bios | 20:32 |
| kiran_20071026 | but am unable to compile it | 20:32 |
| Jordan_U | kiran_20071026, libpurple is not a bot, it's a library for connecting to different messanging services | 20:32 |
| src | yeah sometimes compiling is a real pain in the butt | 20:32 |
| Jordan_U | kiran_20071026, Why not just install pidgin? | 20:32 |
| ActySofts | I did that, but when I press delete with no file selected (for example) instead of getting the sound in my PCI card, I get it into the mb speaker | 20:32 |
| kiran_20071026 | I have that! | 20:32 |
| picard_pwns_kirk | Gimmie doesn't correctly report my status and buddies online with Pidgin, is there a patch for that? | 20:32 |
| kiran_20071026 | but I want a program which automatically pings...replies to users | 20:33 |

| nickrud | Rabiddog: the java that comes with ubuntu is open source, works fine, just isn't complete :) | 20:45 |
| darrend | Jordan_U: so I have to choose between roaming or proper networking?? This is for a laptop - what prevents networkmanager operating without the gui - the services get loaded ok.. | 20:45 |

| riotkittie | ePirate: sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list and then look for the universe lines, remove the # .... | 20:46 |
| src | ePirate, you put a # in front of the relevant line | 20:46 |
| Jordan_U | frojnd1, I think that you can just "sudo apt-get remove ndiswrapper" | 20:46 |
| baty | can any1 answer me plz | 20:46 |

| Rubin | nomaS, open a terminal, and ps x|grep firefox. then kill it | 20:47 |
| frojnd1 | Jordan_U, does this effect anything | 20:47 |
| baty | how much time should the installation of xubuntu take on a pII 333mhz 196 dimm? | 20:47 |
| macd | kip, you could look @ distrowatch.com they have extensive lists. | 20:47 |
| riotkittie | baty: if the machine is still responsive [you get caps lock lights, etc], i'd just sit back and wait. | 20:47 |

| slashblue | any get dual monitors to work on a radeon 7000 ? | 21:08 |
| jared_ | cbx33: you just apt-get lvm2 and then modprobe the kernel module | 21:08 |
| murlidhar | nickrud: k i will just reinstall and see if it works | 21:08 |
| cbx33 | ahhh | 21:08 |
| cbx33 | oh yeh of course | 21:09 |
| jared_ | but it appears that now lvm is not a module anymore...somehow it gets put into the kernel directly? | 21:09 |
| cbx33 | I've even done that before | 21:09 |
| echelon3 | mssever | 21:09 |
| echelon3 | ? | 21:09 |

| mssever | echelon3: ?? | 21:09 |
| jared_ | what I don't understand is how that's even possible without rebuilding the kernel | 21:09 |
| garu | pike_ criminal?lol | 21:09 |
| jared_ | for example, I have a custom kernel but when I installed lvm2 and rebooted ir worked | 21:09 |

| cbx33 | you didn't compile in lvm? | 21:10 |
| cbx33 | jared_, odd | 21:10 |
| mssever | echelon3: Odd. HAve a look at the tar man page. | 21:10 |
| jared_ | well when I installed the package it said something about initramfs on my desktop | 21:10 |
| src | echelon3, then tar cvf <files here> - |gzip <output file>.tar.gz | 21:10 |

| === chaelot|home is now known as chaelot | ||
| mssever | fantum13: cp -a your /home partition to the other | 21:12 |
| cosmodad | fantum13: just shove /home over to / | 21:12 |
| echelon3 | wtf | 21:12 |
| echelon3 | so how do i do it | 21:12 |
| echelon3 | >< | 21:12 |
| riotkittie | then remove the line about /home from fstab | 21:12 |
| fantum13 | but its way bigger, and I'd need to repartiotion it | 21:13 |
| cosmodad | fantum13: I'd use something like rsync though. | 21:13 |
| src | echelon3, tar cvf <foo>.tar <your files>; gzip <foo>.tar | 21:13 |
| src | dammit | 21:13 |
| fantum13 | I don't want to lose the data on /home, either | 21:13 |
| mssever | fantum13: Be sure to use cp -a, otherwise you could end up with a broken system | 21:13 |
| Bonster | donno why u wanna do that leave the /home alone | 21:13 |
| echelon3 | is that correct src? | 21:13 |
| src | echelon3, what you've got to loose? | 21:13 |
| garu | pike_ the instructions there r for feisty :o!For gutsy, dont really need alot of work, is just that, I'm trying to change the proxy, and it keeps puting back to Deutschland!lol..as If I was in nederlands | 21:13 |
| cosmodad | fantum13: the store /home somewhere and all vital data on your / partition, do partition merging and restore /home. | 21:13 |

| fantum13 | cosmodad: I have backups, and I was about to boot the live CD and do a format/reinstall, but if there's a way to do it without that (like merging the /home partition into /) than I'd like to | 21:14 |
| cosmodad | fantum13: you cannot merge it logically (IMHO), just physically. | 21:14 |
| * Rabiddog damn losers in ##java | 21:14 | |
| mssever | chaelot: Have you tried starting the visual effects several times | 21:15 |

| hwilde | joerack, nvidia. i removed compiz, reinstalled metacity, i can spike the cpu just by grabbing a window and moving it around real fast. I know it is the wm because icewm works fine, and if i boot up and launch a full screen graphics game it is blazing, but go back tometacity and it freezes within minutes | 21:21 |

| LordZack | what program whould i use to edit flash files? | 21:30 |
| thepoet | i read that you can still access the files thati have in windows from Ubuntu | 21:31 |
| thepoet | so my question is, can i just give ubuntu 4 gigs of the hardrive since i'm going to be just accessing the files from windows? | 21:31 |
| fyrestrtr | LordZack: adobe flash | 21:31 |
| ahmadnassri | fyrestrtr: yeah i guess i'll do that | 21:31 |
| fyrestrtr | thepoet: you need more than that. | 21:31 |
| dragon2611 | NTFS3g is great for that (accessing files from windows) | 21:31 |
| LordZack | hm okay. | 21:31 |
| sivik | thepoet, thats probably not smart if you ever wnt to install more programs | 21:31 |
| fyrestrtr | thepoet: as I told you earlier :) | 21:31 |
| Bonster | thepoet: u probally need 10gb | 21:31 |
| clamscasino | anyone got time for a couple of newjack install questions? | 21:32 |
| fyrestrtr | 10 GB is a safe starting point. | 21:32 |

| mssever | thepoet: If you start installing lots of stuff in Linux, 4GB will become inadequate | 21:36 |
| mssever | goldbond: du -h is, dunno the -s switch | 21:37 |

| dragon2611 | @ the poet if you can find an EXT2/ext3 driver for vista | 21:38 |
| echelon3 | ? | 21:38 |
| thepoet | or does it only work from Ubuntu To Vista | 21:38 |
| src | echelon3, you can name it anything you want as long as you don't forget that it's a tar archive | 21:38 |
| SlimeyPete | thepoet: www.fs-driver.org provides a driver for XP, not sure if it works under Vista | 21:38 |

| kl4m | !ext3 | 21:38 |

| ubotu | ext3 is the default filesystem on Ubuntu, and the most popular on Linux. You can read/write from Windows to ext3 via http://www.fs-driver.org | 21:38 |
| nickrud | echelon3: tgz is better, but linux doesn't care about extensions | 21:38 |

| mssever | xstasi: I'm sure you can, but I don't have a MAc, so I've never done it | 21:40 |
| thepoet | Wubi? what is that | 21:40 |
| magnetron | xstasi: i have heard a lot of people who successfully installed ubuntu on their iMac. | 21:40 |
| xstasi | ok, how? | 21:40 |
| kl4m | thepoet: if you don't need native access (windows explorer, drag and drop, read and write, etc), you can use http://www.chrysocome.net/explore2fs | 21:40 |

| Bonster | thepoet: google it then ull know | 21:40 |
| thepoet | ok let me check that out | 21:41 |
| magnetron | xstasi: those i have read about, they used boot camp to make place for a windows installation, then they installed ubuntu instead | 21:41 |
| compengi | thepoet, i guess so, or you should wait a bit, in addition you can't browse the files on vista partition from ubuntu M$ change some stuff in folder properties and added a weird security to the files | 21:41 |
| mssever | xstasi: Look in the Mac forums over on ubuntuforums.org | 21:41 |

| chrono13 | I have the O'Reilly Linux pocket guide, and I have googled it, but the results are a bit broad. | 21:43 |

| Bonster | thepoet: if ur pc can handle Vista then it can handle ubuntu | 21:44 |
| mssever | compengi: I was joking.... I hate rebooting, to, but if kill -9 doesn't do it, I don't know what can | 21:44 |

| src | compengi, normally they should dissapear after a while if your zombie processes have only init as parent | 21:56 |
| DevideZero | kl4m why ? | 21:57 |
| Jeriath|sleep | so as my question was prolly lost in converstaion: anyone knwo if there is a way to start firestarter on login from a non root user? | 21:57 |
| deadheron | chinasky, after the install, you can upgrade to 7.10 :) | 21:57 |
| dragon2611 | @ Jeriath i dont think u need to unless you want to see the UI | 21:57 |
| DevideZero | there will be other ubuntu version right ? | 21:57 |
| Whitor | Ok... #Ubuntu+1 is for discussion on the next version of Ubuntu... whether the next version exists or not | 21:57 |
| ompaul | DevideZero, the dev branch has not been opened yet - i.e. there is no software under development yet | 21:57 |
| ompaul | DevideZero, in six months | 21:57 |
| src | compengi, paste the output of ps -aef please | 21:57 |
| fyrestrtr | Jeriath|sleep: doesn't it set itself up to start on login? | 21:57 |
| chinasky | ok, deadheron, i´ll do that...the thing is that the images boot ok in vmware | 21:57 |
| Jeriath|sleep | no fyrestrtr | 21:57 |
| Jeriath|sleep | it needs the root password to start | 21:57 |
| Jeriath|sleep | so i have to do it manually | 21:57 |
| dragon2611 | I'm pretty sure you don't need firestarter running | 21:57 |
| deadheron | chinasky is your disk alright? you checked it for errors? | 21:58 |
| Jeriath|sleep | and i want to gui running | 21:58 |
| DevideZero | if the will start to develop fast the will finish fast :) | 21:58 |
| dragon2611 | the firewall part starts on boot its only the GUI | 21:58 |
| dragon2611 | oh err dunno... | 21:58 |
| deadheron | chinasky and you verified it?.. | 21:58 |
| fyrestrtr | Jeriath|sleep: firestarter monitors iptables, which runs on system startup. | 21:58 |
| Vov4ik | i have writed 2 scripts in my etc/rc.local, but he doesn't want to start with my machine x( please help..! | 21:58 |
| Jeriath|sleep | yea.....but i want to gui running on startup | 21:58 |
| kl4m | #ubuntu+1 is about the development and testing of 8.04(?), it's not #ubuntu-offtopic | 21:58 |
| tsk_ | Where can I get kernel source 2.6.20-16 with ubuntu patches? Can I run this kernel with gutsy? | 21:58 |
| _tux | Jeriath: firestarter should run in the background on boot | 21:58 |
| deadheron | chinasky: and dvd manufactors can make a difference too | 21:58 |
| claes_ | china, you should do a md5 checksum on the ISO files you must have downloaded | 21:58 |
| Jeriath|sleep | .... | 21:58 |
| Jeriath|sleep | again | 21:58 |
| Jeriath|sleep | i know that | 21:58 |
| Jeriath|sleep | i want the gui to run on startup | 21:58 |
| Jeriath|sleep | but i needs a root password | 21:59 |
| lns | ahh, it's so nice to finally have sshfs access from gnome in gutsy =) | 21:59 |
| compengi | src, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/42166/ | 21:59 |
| dragon2611 | @tsk_ try http://www.howtoforge.com/kernel_compilation_ubuntu | 21:59 |
| chinasky | deadheron: i burned the images in differents cds and occurs with 64bit version too, i`ll do it claes | 21:59 |
| claes_ | link for checking the ISO can be found here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM | 21:59 |
| ompaul | !sudo | Jeriath|sleep | 21:59 |
| ubotu | Jeriath|sleep: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information. | 21:59 |
| tsk_ | dragon2611, thanks | 21:59 |
| dragon2611 | although when i tried that the kernel it made worked but the nvidia installer couldn't load the module it had built.... | 21:59 |
| kingvin | @dragon2611 i'm also havin a next problem with my wireless card..ubuntu 7.10 isnt pickin it up..have any ideas to y??? | 21:59 |
| blauzahl-work | is inbound ssh off by default in some versions? | 21:59 |
| chinasky | let me see.... | 21:59 |
| kl4m | Jeriath|sleep: there is no other way than making it suid, or using "gksudo firestarter" for it to ask the password | 22:00 |
| kl4m | !suid | 22:00 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about suid - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 22:00 |
| src | compengi, the parent of your dead processes is PID 5598, which is pidgin | 22:00 |
| fyrestrtr | blauzahl-work: ssh is not installed by default. | 22:00 |
| dragon2611 | @kingvin I'm not that good at linux but maybe lack of drivers | 22:00 |
| src | compengi, therefore 1) stop pidgin or 2) kill pidgin | 22:00 |
| lns | blauzahl-work, you have to install openssh-server | 22:00 |
| fyrestrtr | blauzahl-work: the server, that is. | 22:00 |
| coldboot | What does "The file /boot/grub/stage1 not read correctly." mean when using grub-install? | 22:00 |
| d0ll4 | hi, anone in here already recognized that griffith under gutsy doesnt work (i cannot add new movies)? error message: http://pastebin.ca/749670 | 22:00 |
| deadheron | chinasky maybe you could try the alternate install cd | 22:00 |
| d0ll4 | anyone | 22:00 |
| blauzahl-work | ok, thanks! | 22:00 |
| kl4m | Jeriath|sleep: and making any program suid is a security risk of course | 22:00 |
| === nikosapi_ is now known as nikosapi | ||
| compengi | src, i see.. | 22:00 |
| tsk_ | dragon2611, you know where I can download patches for gutsy or where I can get info? | 22:01 |
| DesiArnez6 | Does anyone know how to fix a missing "/dev/modem" | 22:01 |
| dragon2611 | @ tsk_ i believe it puts them in when you compile from source? | 22:01 |
| gore_ | what widgets can I isntall with the widget plugin for compiz, I dont understand | 22:01 |
| compengi | src, that's why init can't do anything about it because the main application is still running | 22:01 |
| src | compengi, exactly | 22:01 |
| dragon2611 | @tsk_ but i may be wrong | 22:01 |
| claes_ | deadheron, could he do a network/ftp installation from for instance a floppy/usb boot? | 22:01 |
| chinasky | but the md5sum is for the iso image, the iso image boot ok in vmware claes | 22:02 |
| dragon2611 | If i wanted to backup my ubuntu whats the best way ? | 22:02 |
| Whitor | How do I install the correct GPG key for Update-Manager to work properly? | 22:02 |
| claes_ | oh I missed that | 22:02 |
| fyrestrtr | chinasky: use the 'verify cd' option in the boot menu. | 22:02 |
| dragon2611 | i.e so if I screw it up i can get it back to how it is now... | 22:02 |
| src | draconius, cpio, tar | 22:02 |
| deadheron | claes_: i know it is possible to boot ubuntu install from a usb disk, but i dont know exactly how | 22:02 |
| Vov4ik | !sudo | 22:02 |
| ubotu | sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information. | 22:02 |
| fyrestrtr | chinasky: the cd can boot correctly even if its a bad image. | 22:02 |
| desolator[work] | hello | 22:02 |
| tsk_ | dragon2611, the kernel source info in synaptics says it is patched with ubuntu patches... | 22:02 |
| claes_ | let me check the docs | 22:02 |
| desolator[work] | I finished up my RAID0+1 with dmraid, It's formatted to ext3, but how can I mount it? | 22:02 |
| compengi | src, Okay, thanks a lot for your help. | 22:03 |
| BR_ | Hey guys, sure this isn't a un-rare problem from what I am reading but I am having some wifi problems... | 22:03 |
| src | compengi, welcome | 22:03 |
| deadheron | claes: i think he should copy the cd contents to a usb stick of >700MB | 22:03 |
| compengi | src, after i'll terminate pidgin init will close automatically or i should also kill it? | 22:03 |
| chinasky | the "checking cd" stop at the same point as the installation | 22:03 |
| DesiArnez6 | Does anyone know, if I upgrade to Gutsy from Feisty, will "dev/modem" be automatically restored? | 22:03 |
| claes_ | but he will still need to make the usb bootable | 22:03 |
| dragon2611 | @ tsk_ no idea i used that guide with gusty and the kernel i built worked but the Nvidia driver wouldnt load into it for some reason dispite being built for it using the nvidia installer i got from the nvidia site , funny becuase it did on debian ETCH with the same kernel | 22:03 |
| deadheron | claes: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick | 22:04 |
| kishan | claes_, http://www.pendrivelinux.com/2007/09/28/usb-ubuntu-710-gutsy-gibbon-install/ | 22:04 |
| src | compengi, init is crucial for your system. it's the first process that starts, without it you're screwed | 22:04 |
| kishan | check this out | 22:04 |
| deadheron | claes_: yup, but that should be possible | 22:04 |
| compengi | src, oh, so i can conclude that init was running but what i did is called for it's help | 22:04 |
| chinasky | i´ll hava a look | 22:04 |
| deadheron | claes_: it would be easier if he could lend another CD-reader from someone :) | 22:05 |
| falstaff | Has anybody xen with gutsy running? | 22:05 |
| dragon2611 | well not the same kernel obviously same version though ;) | 22:05 |
| desolator[work] | my head is about to burst :( | 22:05 |
| deadheron | chinasky: maybe you can lend another cd-reader from someone, to try | 22:05 |
| src | compengi, init is the process which is responsible for starting all other processes. it is always running | 22:05 |
| claes_ | hmm | 22:05 |
| src | compengi, except when you're not running linux | 22:05 |
| BR_ | I have wifi, it does work, but at a very poor speed and disrupts others on the same wifi network... I have put the confusing dmesg output at: http://rafb.net/p/lbmI2850.html ... I think this is what is causing the problems... any ideas anyone? | 22:05 |
| claes_ | the usb method is a way to go deadheron/kishan | 22:06 |
| compengi | src, thank again | 22:06 |
| compengi | thanks* | 22:06 |
| src | de nada | 22:06 |
| xstasi | hey guys | 22:06 |
| kishan | compengi, u can install from network if u have a problem with cd drive | 22:06 |
| xstasi | if you are interested | 22:06 |
| chinasky | im going to check if the cd boots from vmware, thanks for the links | 22:06 |
| xstasi | i found out why i can't boot form cd in my imac... | 22:06 |
| deadheron | claes_: yup.. though a cd would be easier hehe | 22:06 |
| xstasi | because it won't accept a 32bit boot disk | 22:06 |
| dragon2611 | Whats the best way to backup the install? | 22:06 |
| xstasi | i had to use amd64 | 22:06 |
| kishan | claes_, network install is also easy | 22:07 |
| deadheron | chinasky: do you have a usb stick/sd-card of 700MB or larger | 22:07 |
| DesiArnez6 | I suppose if anyone is following this, I'll do a symbolic link to ttyS1? | 22:07 |
| src | dragon2611, what are you trying to do? | 22:07 |
| claes_ | yes, network installation is what I would go for. | 22:07 |
| dragon2611 | i mean I got compiz.etc working now So how would i make a copy of my install in its current state | 22:07 |
| compengi | O.o src you know russian? | 22:07 |
| chinasky | yes dead | 22:07 |
| deadheron | chinasky: or another computer in the network :P | 22:07 |
| sutabi | Is there a way to use the Alternative CD of 7.10 to update ubuntu without putting it on a CD? | 22:07 |
| xstasi | dragon2611, you have another computer? | 22:07 |
| dragon2611 | i want to make a restore disc if possible | 22:07 |
| dragon2611 | yes! | 22:07 |
| kishan | claes_, are u doing a dual booting | 22:07 |
| claes_ | make a simpe boot thing, connect to a network location, and you are on the way | 22:07 |
| sivik | !lirc | 22:07 |
| src | compengi, yes i'm fluent in chinese | 22:07 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about lirc - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 22:07 |
| claes_ | its not me, its chinasky | 22:07 |
| xstasi | dragon2611, then use the tar+netcat backup mechanism | 22:07 |
| xstasi | it's what i'm doing for cloning ubuntu installations | 22:07 |
| d0ll4 | dragon261: you could start up a live cd and cp -avx all the stuff to another partition | 22:07 |
| chinasky | yes, dead | 22:08 |
| src | dragon2611, or if you've got cash and a spare drive, make a mirror image, then detach it | 22:08 |
| deadheron | chinasky: a dead pc? :p | 22:08 |

| the_trav | do I need to change my notebooks IP address and subnet mask to match the avah range? | 22:39 |
| KlrSpz | why the hell am i getting a msg to insert the cdrom when doing an apt-get install !?!?! | 22:39 |
| danielbw | can you use avahi-daemon to force it to use a dns servver for a domain name? | 22:39 |

| mssever | the_trav: eth0:avah is for avahi, a Zeroconf networking tool | 22:39 |
| KlrSpz | zcat[1]: why? that's stupid as hell | 22:39 |

| sannn | Can anyone confirm if the new fglrx drivers support R250 hardware? | 22:40 |
| d0ll4 | problem | 22:40 |
| KlrSpz | zcat[1]: yeah i edited the sources file, but wouldn't have expected it to do that by default.. pretty lame | 22:40 |
| the_trav | ok, so eth0 and eth0:avah are both referring to the same card, but the avah one is something that ubuntu has configured for me | 22:40 |
| === carlos is now known as nomaS | ||
| compengi | KlrSpz, because during the install sources.list were configured like that and some files are found in the cd why not getting them from there :P | 22:41 |
| src | Skenvoy, look at /etc/iftab | 22:41 |

| Skenvoy | now i need to make the OTHER one persistent | 22:41 |

| CarlFK | Pici: thanks | 23:02 |
| ompaul | danielbw, angerbuntu please take the conversation somewhere else it is not a ubuntu support matter, thanks | 23:03 |
| d0ll4_ | bqmassey: if you need to use ntfs, use ntfs-3g to mount it, so you have read and write access | 23:03 |

| d0ll4_ | ubunt1: install w32codecs | 23:06 |
| Psy | any ideas anyone? it stills ays unassociated in iwconfig | 23:06 |

| foug | Is there any possible way to change the size of buttons in my window list applet / taskbar? Gnome 2.20 took the old option out, the behavior tab. Is there any other way? | 23:06 |
| compengi | d0ll4, w32codecs i guess are included in ubuntu-restricted-extras package | 23:06 |
| d0ll4_ | ubunt1: i think so, correct me if im wrong | 23:06 |
| angerbuntu | and use the one i built from source via linux wacom project | 23:06 |

| Psy | hmm I can now see my wireless network, and ping my local IP but not the router, but it still wont connect, any ideas anyone? | 23:07 |
| eZtaR | rhy -> I'm not sure but you could check xorg.conf and set new max-values :p | 23:07 |
| angerbuntu | onion: use aptitude | 23:07 |
| CarlFK | Pici: ATI Mobility: .. x700 isn't listed on http://wiki.compiz-fusion.org/Hardware/Blacklist/ - my cards pci id: 1002:5652 | 23:07 |
| bulmer | Psy-> pastebin your "ip a" results | 23:08 |
| d0ll4_ | OnionSoup: apt-cache search | 23:08 |
| nickrud | OnionSoup: apt-cache search | 23:08 |
| rhy | No Gui way? | 23:08 |
| compengi | d0ll4, well it could be that some packages in ubuntu-restricted-extras are not supported for 64bit that's why you need to get w64codecs | 23:08 |
| angerbuntu | why not aptitude? | 23:08 |
| OnionSoup | tnx :) | 23:08 |
| Psy | bulmer - the laptop isn't ont he network :( | 23:08 |
| ompaul | OnionSoup, apt-cache search Part-Or-All-Package-Name | 23:08 |
| Pici | CarlFK: I checked with the CF guys before I added it to the factoid, they ensured me it was blacklisted. | 23:08 |
| CarlFK | Pici: thanks. | 23:08 |
| nickrud | angerbuntu: basic search in aptitude only searches the short description | 23:08 |
| Psy | ok wait I think something changed - it now says ieee 802.11g in iwconfig | 23:08 |
| CarlFK | ill bother #them now :) | 23:08 |

| qazwsx | are there any smaller ubuntu install cds? (the near 700MB cds don't work well with my cd burner) | 23:10 |
| rainwalker | I'm planning on doing a fresh install of Gutsy, is there anything I need to backup (specifically, not my home directory because half the point of the fresh install is to clear out the junk I have in there) | 23:10 |
| ompaul | !anyone | c0nka | 23:10 |
| ubotu | c0nka: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? | 23:10 |
| bulmer | Psy-> tell me how is your setup, what is connected to what, ip addresses and such | 23:10 |
| nickrud | mynyml: /etc/event.d is the inittab replacement | 23:10 |
| c0nka | i cant connect to the internet on ubuntu | 23:10 |
| c0nka | :( | 23:10 |
| Psy | bulmer, router is 10.0.0.61 static, laptop is 10.0.0.74 | 23:10 |

| c0nka | both | 23:11 |
| bulmer | Psy-> what do you use in your laptop? dhclient? | 23:11 |
| c0nka | :( | 23:11 |
| nickrud | rainwalker: any changes to /etc | 23:11 |
| Psy | dhclient? | 23:11 |
| qazwsx | are there any smaller ubuntu install cds? (the near 700MB cds don't work well with my cd burner) [ the CD itself also only supports 700MB, and there's a certain overhead in burning CDs right?] | 23:11 |
| bulmer | dhcp client? | 23:11 |
| rainwalker | nickrud: how do I know if there are changes? | 23:11 |
| Psy | nope manual config | 23:11 |
| Psy | it seems to ping the router fine now | 23:11 |
| Psy | just internet doesnt work | 23:11 |
| ompaul | c0nka, you don't have to add a :( to ever thing you say, now first question, are you on a lan with static ips or dchp? | 23:12 |
| nickrud | rainwalker: changes you made, more specifically. Like xorg.conf in /etc/X11/, apache config, etc | 23:12 |
| bulmer | Psy-> pastebin your "ip a" results please | 23:12 |
| c0nka | dchp | 23:12 |
| bulmer | Psy-> also include netstat -ran | 23:12 |
| mynyml | nickrud: thanks | 23:12 |
| rainwalker | nickrud: I backed up all the copies of xorg.conf I had | 23:12 |
| Psy | give me 2 mins bulmer i'll let you know when | 23:12 |
| rainwalker | nickrud, though that's another reason I'm doing a fresh install; my graphics are messed up | 23:12 |
| bulmer | Psy-> okay, just mention my nick so i dont miss it | 23:13 |
| lwizardl | can someone help me with mounting my usb drive with a hfs+ mac partition in 7.10 gutsy | 23:13 |

| angerbuntu | YESSSS! | 23:13 |
| draconius | lwizardl, hang on a sec, let me see if iI can get you pointed in the right direction | 23:13 |
| angerbuntu | YES YES YES YES! | 23:13 |
| angerbuntu | YES! | 23:13 |
| ompaul | c0nka, start ubuntu, and start a terminal - applications - accessories - terminal and in there type, sudo dhclient and sit back for a moment as long as you are wired up and your network card works and your dhcpserver is working then it will be good | 23:13 |
| angerbuntu | ladies and gentlemen! | 23:13 |
| nickrud | angerbuntu: time to change your nick then | 23:13 |

| Jaac | Does anyone know how i can see that? | 23:14 |

| juggalobrandon | how do you get a wireless mouse to work | 23:15 |
| c0nka | ??? | 23:15 |

| rainwalker | nickrud: totally off the subject, but I can access a shared windows box from my laptop without entering the required password...why? | 23:16 |
| anonymous_ | I have just installed ubuntu and i can't open my old partions as they need to be mounted and I can't do so as this is locked to only the root | 23:16 |
| c0nka | will that work on the live cd | 23:16 |
| nickrud | rainwalker: samba is a mystery to me, I don't want to reinstall so I haven't played with it :-P | 23:16 |
| bucket | FDSASDFAKJL | 23:16 |
| ompaul | c0nka, it should work with one | 23:16 |
| c0nka | okm8 thanks | 23:17 |
| d0ll4_ | anonymous_: you could add an mountpoint in your /etc/fstab | 23:17 |
| rainwalker | nickrud: ah, well thanks anyway | 23:17 |
| anonymous_ | I have tried that too but yet am not able to save anything to that file | 23:17 |
| compengi | anonymous_, http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Gutsy#Mounting_Manually | 23:17 |
| ompaul | c0nka, if it does not do thjis - move to some other ethernet card on the box but it should work on any of them | 23:17 |
| Jaac | I have a problem upgrading postfix, and need to know what packages are installed, is there a way i can see what packages are installed through apt-get? | 23:17 |
| nickrud | anonymous_: you would use sudo to get root access, like sudo mount <stuff> , and use your user password | 23:17 |
| d0ll4_ | anonymous_: sudo gedit /etc/fstab or sudo vim /etc/fstab | 23:18 |
| bqmassey1 | can i run gparted with the live cd? | 23:18 |
| zombie_monkey | is writing to ntfs from gutsy completely safe? I have a vista/gutsy double boot | 23:18 |
| d0ll4_ | bqmassey1: sure | 23:18 |
| RoR2is | Hi canI ask you which chat client you use on ubunto 7.04 ? ? | 23:18 |
| KNY | pidgin | 23:18 |
| nickrud | zombie_monkey: some say yes, I never do. I saw someone get an error saying boot windows TWICE to fix a linux write error | 23:18 |
| rainwalker | nickrud: I think I'll go ahead and install, then. Is there anything you'd recommend doing first? | 23:18 |
| Psy | bulmer > http://pastebin.com/d79f16b61 - good thing the laptop connects to the lan now :) or i'd have to type that all out | 23:19 |
| d0ll4_ | RoR2is: i use psi, xchat and chatzilla :P | 23:19 |
| ubunt1 | i have installed the restricted-extras but totem can't handle the MMS protocol... | 23:19 |
| rainwalker | RoR2is: Pidgin, but people always tell me there are better ones | 23:19 |
| zombie_monkey | nickrud: I madea fat32 partition fo rthat but the problem with ntfs is the max file size is 3GB | 23:19 |
| nickrud | rainwalker: start a log book for exactly what you do, and put today's date in it | 23:19 |
| zombie_monkey | with fat32* | 23:19 |
| compengi | ubunt1, are you trying to play .wmv file/ | 23:19 |
| rainwalker | nickrud: VERY godo idea | 23:19 |
| zombie_monkey | 4GB* | 23:19 |
| rainwalker | s/godo/good | 23:19 |
| jackster | RoR2is: if Pidgin doesn't suit you you could try Kopete from KDE, it seems to have a few more features than Pidgin | 23:19 |
| bulmer | Psy-> why not use the dhcp and insisting on static ip address for your ubuntu ? | 23:19 |
| slackern | Jaac, i prefer to use aptiude to search for packages, you could do for example aptitude search postfix and it will show all packages available and the ones with a 'i' infront of them are installed | 23:20 |
| ubunt1 | compengi, yes, from an site | 23:20 |
| ubunt1 | from my PC it work | 23:20 |
| Psy | because the network in my house is not dhcp. | 23:20 |
| rainwalker | Alright then, I'm off to reinstall, wish me luck :) Thanks for the help! | 23:20 |
| d0ll4_ | rainwalker: use jabber (psi) :P | 23:20 |
| compengi | ubunt1, i got it working | 23:20 |
| ubunt1 | compengi, what? | 23:20 |
| d0ll4_ | rainwalker: good luck | 23:20 |
| Psy | Can I still connect using dhcp bulmer? | 23:20 |
| patbam | hi, what's a good app to use for dealing with ipods? | 23:20 |
| nickrud | zombie_monkey: I'm windows phobic, so I'm not really a good source of unbiased opinion here | 23:20 |
| compengi | ubunt1, i can play *.wmv files | 23:20 |
| lwizardl | Ok just checked and i have the hfsplus files installed and I'm still told in gparted the drive is unformater | 23:20 |
| bqmassey1 | patbam: iTunes | 23:20 |
| d0ll4_ | patbam: tkpod? | 23:20 |
| lwizardl | *unformated | 23:20 |
| rainwalker | patbam: it depends what you're trying to do | 23:20 |
| patbam | bqmassey1: are you serious? | 23:21 |
| bulmer | Psy-> what is your router? a wireless AP too? | 23:21 |
| Psy | Yep | 23:21 |
| patbam | rainwalker: i just want to copy some podcasts onto it | 23:21 |
| bqmassey1 | patbam: slightly | 23:21 |
| nickrud | rainwalker: luck :) | 23:21 |
| Psy | bulmer - some netgear one | 23:21 |
| ubunt1 | compengi , i can play those files too, but if i save them from the site , try to play the www.kab.tv :) | 23:21 |
| d0ll4_ | patbam: if you use a new ipod hes serious ;) but if itunes runs with wine i dont know, and i dont think so | 23:21 |
| patbam | bqmassey1: i just want to copy stuff i have onto it | 23:21 |
| rainwalker | wait, do I need to install available updates? | 23:21 |
| patbam | it's an old one, i don't care about itunes at all | 23:21 |
| foug | Is there any possible way to change the size of buttons in my window list applet / taskbar? Gnome 2.20 took the old option out, the behavior tab. Is there any other way? | 23:21 |
| d0ll4_ | patbam: try tkpod | 23:21 |
| patbam | i just want to listen to my greek lessons :) | 23:21 |
| === Drevor_ is now known as Drevor | ||
| bqmassey1 | he didn't say anything about the program having to be for linux | 23:21 |
| patbam | d0ll4_: ok, iĺl give it a shot, thanks | 23:22 |
| jackster | patbam: you might try Amarok, I think it supports iTunes, although don't expect to be able to play any songs purchased from the iTunes Store | 23:22 |
| Tailsfan | Hi Everyone | 23:22 |
| compengi | ubunt1, working | 23:22 |
| patbam | *i don't care about itunes* O.o | 23:22 |
| rainwalker | patbam: if you're just trying to get sound files onto it, Amarok is great for managing your media and getting it onto ipods | 23:22 |
| foug | patbam: for ipods, i think he meant "gtkpod" | 23:22 |
| ubunt1 | compengi, what browser do you use? | 23:22 |
| patbam | ok, will try gtkpod | 23:22 |
| * patbam installs... | 23:22 | |
| Tailsfan | I just wanted to say that I love Gutsy Gibbon, it is the only one that supports my Windows Partition | 23:22 |
| bulmer | Psy-> netgear do support a dhcp server, why dont you want to use that? | 23:22 |
| compengi | ubunt1, firefox (ubuntu default) | 23:22 |
| patbam | i seaux ♥ ubuntu. sniff. | 23:22 |
| d0ll4_ | patbam: sorry gtkpod | 23:22 |
| bqmassey1 | i have a great idea for a nick | 23:22 |
| Psy | it's my dads network and he insists on static | 23:23 |
| zombie_monkey | nickrud: I don't use vista that much anyway, I guess I'll just convert that fat32 partition to ext3 | 23:23 |
| === bqmassey1 is now known as ubun2 | ||
| bulmer | Psy-> whats the ip address of that AP again? | 23:23 |
| ubun2 | dammit | 23:23 |
| Psy | we have a lot of machines on the network | 23:23 |
| ubun2 | taken | 23:23 |
| ubunt1 | compengi, why then for me it's not working... | 23:23 |
| Psy | 10.0.0.61 | 23:23 |
| nickrud | zombie_monkey: now you're talking! | 23:23 |
| rainwalker | nickrud: should I install available updates first? I wouldn't think it matters, but I'm not sure | 23:23 |
| === ubun2 is now known as bqmassey | ||
| jackster | zombie_monkey: vista can still be installed on fat32? | 23:23 |
| Psy | bulmer - the network is working fine now it's just the routing I think? | 23:23 |
| bulmer | Psy-> which nic card do you have attached to the router? | 23:23 |
| Greyfox | Right, so I'm updating my distro to Gutsy, and moving from Dapper to Edgy, I'm presented with a screen that talks about Configuring courier-base. Do I say "yes" or "no" to "Create directories for web-based administration?" | 23:23 |
| * jackster thought it was exclusively NTFS now | 23:23 | |
| danc3 | anyone know why I can't get a framebuffer console to show up (Alt-Ctrl-F2) on a 7.10 install? If there is no "vga=xxx" on the kernel boot line in grub, I do get a non-fb console, but putting anything like "vga=791" in makes the console screens just show a blinking cursor and no way to log in. Is there some package that needs to be installed to get framebuffer ability? | 23:23 |
| bulmer | Psy-> you have two | 23:23 |
| compengi | ubunt1, after installing that package did it ask you to reboot? | 23:23 |
| KNY | what do I need to get dual monitors working on my laptop? "intel" driver | 23:23 |
| Tailsfan | Ther eis one problem I'm having | 23:23 |
| Psy | bulmer - I can ping and access my local machines | 23:23 |
| patbam | mleargh, gtkpod interface = kinna confusing | 23:23 |
| zombie_monkey | jackster: no, I have a fat32 partition for compatibility purposes, but I have a problem with fat32's maximum file size of 4GB | 23:24 |
| bulmer | Psy-> which nic card do you have attached to the router? you have two | 23:24 |
| nickrud | rainwalker: if you're doing a fresh install, why? You'll replace everything anyway. If you're planning on upgrade in place, abolutely, make sure ubuntu-desktop is installed and you're totally up to date | 23:24 |
| Psy | bulmer - Its eth1, eth0 is a wired nic | 23:24 |
| jackster | zombie_monkey: ah ok | 23:24 |
| Tailsfan | Every time i try to import the Kubuntu Gutsy CD on Synaptic, it doesn't show it's contents | 23:24 |
| ubunt1 | compengi, nope, try to restart the PC? | 23:24 |
| d0ll4_ | jackster: install it with ntfs (the better fs for windows) and use ntfs-3g to have read/write access | 23:24 |
| adayah | hello. can anyone help with the nvidia driver or envy to install the nvidia driver on gutsy gibbon? I can´t seem to get it installed right for the xserver. xserver says it´s not configured right and fails on startup. any issues i should know about? | 23:24 |
| compengi | ubunt1, maybe that would help | 23:24 |

| anonymous_ | am able to save changes in the fstab file after writing the gksudo gedit comand line but though I wrote the command line to force open the drive from the "Cannot mout volume" error message am not able to open the drive | 23:25 |
| rainwalker | Psy: isn't that a good thing? | 23:26 |
| nickrud | rainwalker: like a dist-upgrade with apt, or having the update-manager do it for you. I normally upgrade, not reinstall | 23:26 |
| caneca | The very format gives hd problem? | 23:26 |
| kingvin | can someone tell me y ubuntu 7.10 wont work for my Atheros wireless card?????? | 23:26 |

| The_Belgain | i'm having problems with a few files on an ext3 partition becoming unreadable - how should i go about figuring out what's causing it (hardware or software)? I've looked in dmesg and there's nothing there | 23:30 |
| rhy | was there a backup of my xorg.conf somewhere? | 23:30 |
| nickrud | foug: run gconf-editor, it's the front end to ~/.gconf | 23:30 |
| d0ll4_ | barn: the error message would be interesting | 23:30 |
| The_Belgain | should I just reboot and run a hard drive diagnosis utility over the drives (it's a 6-drive RAID5 array)? | 23:30 |

| c0nka | still no look | 23:31 |

| d0ll4_ | The_Belgain: nothing wrong on fsck fisrst :) | 23:31 |
| barn | I tried installing virtualbox from Automatix2, and it didn't work, so I went and got a deb file for it(virtualbox) | 23:31 |
| compengi | rhy, check in /etc/X11/ directory if you could find any | 23:31 |
| geirha | Hatty: right click on the notification area, where there are no icons, and select Add to panel and see if you find it in the list | 23:32 |
| barn | Now neither the deb filke will install nor will synaptic. | 23:32 |
| d0ll4_ | barn: you did uninstall the automatix one? | 23:32 |
| barn | Yes | 23:32 |
| bqmassey | i'm putting a fat32 partition at the end of my disc as a place to back up files... would that be a "primary partition", a "logical partition", or an "extended partition" | 23:32 |
| The_Belgain | i unmounted the partition and ran fsck over it - it didn't report any error, but did fix at least one file which wasn't working previously (either that, or just unmounting / mounting fixed it) | 23:32 |
| barn | I will give you the error mesg if it helps | 23:32 |
| Tailsfan | Is there anyway to make ubuntu into a cube with compiz? | 23:32 |

| anonymous_ | still not working ? | 23:32 |
| d0ll4_ | bqmassey: depends on how much parttions on there already | 23:32 |
| compengi | BlkGhost_, check compiz for that :) | 23:32 |

| falstaff | Anyone using xen here? | 23:33 |
| desolator[work] | hi, someone might know how to setup a raid 1+0? | 23:34 |
| nickrud | foug: I had forgotten about that, and with this short laptop screen I thought it would give me some extra real estate. so, ditto | 23:34 |
| bqmassey | d0ll4_: i can't do that because windows won't let me format the hardrive the way i want to.. i want the windows partition to be second | 23:34 |
| Psy | if im adding a route for all traffic not on the local network what would I specify for host? | 23:34 |
| foug | nickrud: yea i erally liked that feature, probably gonna downgrade to 7.04 ;\ | 23:34 |
| d0ll4_ | bqmassey: partition with gparted, install windows on the second partition, and after that install ubuntu on the first | 23:34 |
| The_Belgain | at first i thought that as it was just a few files, they'd got corrupted while the PC shut down abruptly or something, but i want to be sure this isn't my hard drive starting to die | 23:34 |
| anonymous_ | still not working ? | 23:34 |
| c0nka | anyone | 23:35 |
| Hatty | Is there anyway to 'unhide' the printer icon in the notification area? | 23:35 |

| CarlFK | next problem: desktop box has 3 vid cards. in feisty i got all 3 working together. i still have my xorg.conf, but shouldn't gutsy's "Screens and Grafics" thing let me set that up? (it won't let me enable all 3) | 23:48 |
| compengi | webmaren, complete removal?! | 23:48 |
| d0ll4_ | rainwalker: never ever had problem with open apps | 23:48 |
| KNYlaptop | it worked with my Fn-keys | 23:48 |
| KNYlaptop | (to dual-monitor) | 23:48 |
| d0ll4_ | rainwalker: so far :) | 23:48 |
| rainwalker | time to find out... | 23:48 |
| d0ll4_ | rainwalker: indeed :) | 23:48 |
| secleinteer | hi, does anyone know if there's a .deb i can install pylons from? | 23:48 |
| fevel | can I enable sound for mnimizing a window | 23:49 |
| c0nka | falstaff, yes thats right and my computer is a presario v4000 | 23:49 |
| sharperguy | anyone know about a problem on a laptop where the built in speakers work, but when you plug in headphones the sound goes off on the speakers, but dosn't come through the headphones? | 23:49 |
| pyc | secleinteer: there is one in gutsy repo | 23:49 |
| secleinteer | pyc: what about in feisty? | 23:49 |
| rainwalker | sharperguy: have you checked that headphones are muted? I did that once | 23:49 |
| secleinteer | pyc: too lazy to upgrade :D | 23:50 |
| The_Belgain | what tools other than fsck can i run over a filesystem to look for corruption / errors / unreadable files? fsck hasn't reported any errors on a partition which does have unreadable files...? | 23:50 |
| pyc | secleinteer: you just install via python setup ;) | 23:50 |
| rainwalker | okay, question about partitioning: what are ext3 and swap? FYI, the ubotu definitions make no sense | 23:50 |
| secleinteer | pyc: alright | 23:50 |
| d0ll4_ | The_Belgain: fsck -f /dev/bla for example | 23:50 |
| anonymous_ | still not able to access the partition -Cannot mount volume error | 23:50 |
| d0ll4_ | The_Belgain: this forces fsck to chekc the whole disk | 23:50 |
| sharperguy | rainwalker, im not sure how i would check, but ive ben round the volume control quite a bit. Also it wouldve been muted by default | 23:50 |
| The_Belgain | yeah - that's reported it as happy, but there's still a file that isn't readable | 23:51 |
| fryfrog | I'm using compiz/xgl and I am trying to figure out how to have 4 desktops... what the heck am I missing? | 23:51 |
| The_Belgain | unless that file happened to get corrupted after i ran fsck... | 23:51 |
| CarlFK | rainwalker: they are good settings. just use them :) | 23:51 |
| d0ll4_ | The_Belgain: check permissions | 23:51 |
| rainwalker | carlFK: what do you mean? | 23:51 |
| The_Belgain | will fsck attempt to fix any errors it finds? | 23:51 |
| pyc | anybody use devhelp here? | 23:51 |
| Malfist | fryfrog, did you check your settings? | 23:52 |
| CarlFK | rainwalker: you wanted info about ext3 and swap. that was useful info. | 23:52 |
| d0ll4_ | rainwalker: swap is like the paging file in windows, ext3 is a filesystem like reisrfs or else | 23:52 |
| Malfist | fryfrog, for compiz? | 23:52 |
| fryfrog | Malfist: I can't figure out where that setting *is* :/ | 23:52 |
| rainwalker | Woohoo! Ready to install | 23:52 |
| rainwalker | Just to be safe, I'm going to close pidgin | 23:52 |
| Malfist | fryfrog, System->Settings->Advanced Desktop... | 23:52 |
| rainwalker | thanks everyone! | 23:52 |
| The_Belgain | d0ll3: the permissions are fine (I do have read access) | 23:52 |
| fryfrog | Malfist: I'm there, but where *inside* this? | 23:53 |
| CarlFK | I wonder if he is going to turn off the comptuer too | 23:53 |
| Malfist | fryfrog, then go to General options | 23:53 |
| haz | hey guys, i want to change the colours of my PS1 variable, how would i do this using export? | 23:53 |
| === _Apex is now known as Apex | ||
| fryfrog | Malfist: ah, so obvious :p | 23:53 |
| d0ll4_ | The_Belgain: good question then. you're running the smartd? | 23:53 |
| Malfist | fryfrog, then Desktop Size | 23:53 |
| The_Belgain | smartd? | 23:53 |
| Malfist | fryfrog, what you probably want is 4,1,1 as the settings | 23:53 |
| d0ll4_ | The_Belgain: yep a daemon for S.M.A.R.T | 23:54 |
| c0nka | falstaff | 23:54 |
| The_Belgain | dunno - how do i check? | 23:54 |
| anonymous_ | dolla4- I am still not able to access the partition -Cannot mount volume error is still showing up | 23:54 |
| Malfist | fryfrog, does that work? | 23:54 |
| d0ll4_ | ps aux | grep smartd | 23:54 |
| d0ll4_ | anonymous_: youre sure its the right dev u use? | 23:54 |
| d0ll4_ | anonymous_: at least it should be orking if everythings correct | 23:55 |
| falstaff | c0nka, | 23:55 |
| d0ll4_ | +w | 23:55 |
| fryfrog | Malfist: it looks like the setting i'm after, but it isn't changing anything :/ | 23:55 |
| fryfrog | I tried 4,1,1 and 1,1,4 | 23:55 |
| d0ll4_ | anonymous_: the mountpoint has to exist! | 23:55 |
| c0nka | falstaff, yes thats right and my computer is a presario v4000 | 23:55 |
| Malfist | fryfrog, Did you set it to 4,1,1? | 23:55 |
| falstaff | c0nka, do you see any output except lo0 in ifconfig? (open a terminal, type ifconfig) | 23:55 |
| Malfist | fryfrog, you don't want 1,1,4 | 23:55 |
| fryfrog | the little ubuntu widgit in the lower right doesn't change | 23:55 |
| Malfist | fryfrog, restart X | 23:55 |
| c0nka | i cant im on windows :-S | 23:55 |
| Gothfunc | anyone know of an app that adds socks5 support to specific running programs, like proxifier does? | 23:55 |
| anonymous_ | well this is the exact syntax shown in the error message | 23:55 |
| fryfrog | Malfist: ahhh | 23:56 |
| The_Belgain | d0ll4: no, i'm not running smartd | 23:56 |
| anonymous_ | of course we removed the force | 23:56 |
| Malfist | fryfrog, that may or maynot fix it, I'm guessing it will | 23:56 |
| xwyzex | can someone help me with upgrading from 6.10 to 7.10 | 23:56 |
| Malfist | fryfrog, I had the same problems | 23:56 |

| Winball | 1337 users? | 23:57 |

| xwyzex | this is the error i keep getting(Failed to fetch http://ca.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/edgy/main/source/Sources.gz Sub-process gzip returned an error code (1)) | 23:57 |
| pinguim_noel | xwyzex try hange the sources in /etc/apt/sources.list and then sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 23:57 |
| novato_br | d0ll4_, hi | 23:57 |
| Malfist | !aptitude | 23:57 |
| novato_br | are u ok? | 23:57 |
| ubotu | aptitude is another terminal-based front-end to APT, like apt-get. However, aptitude can remember the dependencies installed with a package and remove them if you uninstall. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptitudeSurvivalGuide | 23:57 |
