| minimec | t_acko: hmm.. So you just boot up on the live-disk and you cannot hit 'enter'... Can you use the 'arrow down'? | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| shimizu | Sn3ipen, share folder on vista.. then run nautilus.. or places -> network and u should see it there ? | 00:00 |
| theTrav | thanks MoTec, I will give it a shot | 00:00 |
| brice | booting to recovery mode works, but not standard booting | 00:00 |
| neopsyche | Can anyone help me .. im trying to install something on ubuntu.. the most frustrating thing is I found a guide to do it .. but i cant understand the language and I am fairly newbie. Can anyone help? I just need help understanding the guide. | 00:00 |
| Sn3ipen | my computer does response to ping | 00:00 |
| comicinker | wildman: I did it already yesterday ;) | 00:00 |
| pike_ | neopsyche: can you paste the url of the guide? | 00:00 |
| iobelisk | hi, every time i try install a package into the splash screen manager, it closes instead of adding the theme.. any ideas? | 00:00 |
| wildman | comicinker, sigh... no idea then, sorry. | 00:00 |
| neopsyche | pike_: ok | 00:00 |
| Sn3ipen | my computer respond to ping | 00:00 |
| Innomen | howndo i even find out what kind of card a dell c610 has in it? | 00:00 |

| Evanlec | kevinly, compizconfig-settings-manager | 00:00 |
| frostycone | allright, lets see if I can put this in a simple way: Using ubuntu 7.10. I have two monitors (Hyundai L90D+ and an old Acer AL1912 running against an nVidia 7800GT). Running with the Live CD results in a nice 1280x1024 resolution on both monitors with the default driver. However: Installing the nvidia driver on the hdd install a few minutes later ROYALLY screwed things up. Can I set the resolution settings through bash? | 00:00 |
| kevinly | pike_: ok thanks i hadn't installed it | 00:00 |
| Innomen | why would they remove support for a card? | 00:00 |
| t_acko | minimec: yeah, the arrow keys work, the F# keys work, and enter works but only on the option to "boot from hard disk" which is currently empty | 00:00 |
| wildman | comicinker, euh... 1 idea: did you remove the checkmark from the use per-window settings? (or something like that) | 00:00 |
| neopsyche | pike_: I am trying to sync my phone with evolution email | 00:00 |
| neopsyche | pike_: calendar etc. | 00:01 |
| wildman | comicinker, per-window, per-app, cannot remember now | 00:01 |
| comicinker | wildman: whats that? | 00:01 |
| MeRodent | how do I find out what the name of the wireless driver in use? | 00:01 |
| frostycone | Cause right now, everything on the right monitor is just a garbled mess and the left one (the hyundai) is just black | 00:01 |
| lucashungaro | My Ubuntu system was working ok but then, all of a sudden, it doesn't mount my windows (ntfs) partitions anymore. Anyone know a reason for this? (I'm using 7.10) | 00:01 |
| wildman | comicinker, wait, opening the applet | 00:01 |
| Zarigis | pike_, seems to have worked, I have the scripts back, but I still can't sleep :( | 00:01 |
| pike_ | neopsyche: ah not much exp there sorry paste the url at http://translate.google.com/ | 00:01 |
| c0Ld | wirechief: x crashed for whatever reason, but the command still isn't working | 00:01 |
| smmagic | Can someone give me a bit of help? | 00:02 |
| fyrestrtr | smmagic: what is your question? | 00:02 |
| riddlebox | smmagic, what is the problem? | 00:02 |
| shimizu | btw any related chanel for ubuntu + ati | 00:02 |
| shimizu | ? | 00:02 |
| buttercups | c0Ld, its sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg not dpkg-reconfigure-xerver-xorg | 00:02 |
| smmagic | After installing a restricted driver | 00:02 |
| comicinker | wildman: a more detailed desciption: I switched the system language from german to english, and the problem occur only to windows I switched back and for (either with alt-tab or mouse click) there are no problems in kde apps (amarok) | 00:02 |
| smmagic | My resolution max is 800x600 | 00:02 |
| wirechief | c0Ld: can you pm me ? | 00:02 |
| minimec | t_acko: I am probably as surprised as you... | 00:02 |
| shimizu | smmagic, what card do u use.. | 00:02 |
| wildman | comicinker, on the 2nd tab (Distribuciones in ES, I guess it's called Layout in EN) there's a checkmark called something like "separate group per window", did you try unchecking it? | 00:02 |
| fyrestrtr | !fixres | smmagic | 00:02 |
| ubotu | smmagic: The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type « sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart » in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto | 00:02 |
| t_acko | haha | 00:03 |
| t_acko | yeah, I am baffled | 00:03 |
| montgoej | Why is iceweasel in the repos, but uninstallable? | 00:03 |
| smmagic | nVida vanta something | 00:03 |
| t_acko | thanks for trying though | 00:03 |
| wildman | comicinker, maybe related to what I just wrote above... | 00:03 |
| pike_ | smmagic: id do a sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg be prepared for breakage though just remember to command and you can fix it | 00:03 |
| shimizu | smmagic, well u got a tip already =] | 00:03 |
| c0Ld | wirechief: one moment, brb | 00:03 |
| comicinker | wildman: I see... | 00:03 |
| fyrestrtr | smmagic: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto | 00:03 |
| montgoej | an "apt-get install iceweasel" tells me there's no installation candidate, and an "apt-get install iceweasel-torbutton" tells me it depends on iceweasel, which isn't there | 00:03 |
| smmagic | And no one recommend envy | 00:03 |
| smmagic | Broke my graphics last time | 00:04 |
| Pici | smmagic: we tend not to :) | 00:04 |
| fyrestrtr | !envy | smmagic | 00:04 |
| ubotu | smmagic: 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! | 00:04 |
| minimec | t_acko: let us get that straight. You power on your machine with the live-disk in it and then you get that boot menu, where you can use all the keys but not the 'enter' key | 00:04 |
| [chr0n0s] | envy worked for me this time.. :) | 00:04 |
| smmagic | Last part is very true | 00:04 |
| [chr0n0s] | even got direct rendering working | 00:04 |
| comicinker | wildman: do I have to restart the X ? | 00:04 |
| shimizu | envy is just beutiful.. using it and having no problems :> | 00:04 |
| smmagic | I'll try ctrl alt backspace | 00:04 |
| neopsyche | where is httdocs on apache on ubuntu? | 00:04 |
| t_acko | minimec: well the enter key works, like I said only on the "boot from hard disk" option | 00:05 |
| [chr0n0s] | neopsyche, try using locate httdocs | 00:05 |
| shimizu | neopsyche, /var/www by default | 00:05 |
| t_acko | minimec: if I press it on the install ubuntu option it does nothing | 00:05 |
| lucashungaro | Ok, on Windows XP and can use 1280x1024 screen resolution with 80Hz. On Ubuntu, on that same resolution, the maximum refresh rate is 58Hz, which is utterly bad. Why can't I use all the supported rates of my monitor and graphics card (GeForce 6600GT, AGP)? | 00:05 |
| wildman | comicinker, cannot tell... I did. | 00:05 |
| pike_ | i dont mind scripts like that as long as the tell you what they are doing and prompt for y/n | 00:05 |
| kevinly | compizconfig-settings-manager | 00:05 |
| smmagic | That didn't work | 00:05 |
| kevinly | sorry is that a command | 00:05 |
| kevinly | or what | 00:05 |
| * cafuego shrugs. | 00:05 | |
| neopsyche | shimizu: thanks | 00:05 |
| brice | any idea why I get a black screen when I boot from my external drive, specs: Q6600 4Gb DDR2 8800GTX | 00:05 |
| kevinly | this is crazy | 00:05 |
| brice | booting to recovery mode works | 00:05 |
| Klick__ | Hey all, I have gutsy, and compiz working, but I do not have the skydome, or screensaver plugin. Do you know where I can find these, or a repo I can use that has these included? | 00:05 |
| comicinker | wildman: I unchecked it now, but until now it had no effect.... I have a look to the other settings and try a restart now... | 00:05 |
| shimizu | neopsyche, u can always check it by viewing apache2.conf in /etc/apache2 | 00:06 |
| pike_ | kevinly: what was your question again? | 00:06 |
| wildman | lucashungaro, I had the same pb, fixed xorg.conf by hand... but after a reboot low refresh appeared again. hadn't had the chance to check what happened | 00:06 |
| kevinly | I can't remember any more I'm too confused | 00:06 |
| neopsyche | shimizu: thanks | 00:06 |
| kevinly | I want to play around with tihs beryl/compiz thing | 00:06 |
| shimizu | kevinly, it's common . | 00:06 |
| minimec | t_acko: install ubuntu? You are running the alternate install-disk? | 00:06 |
| kevinly | but I cna't seem to get anything that shows me how dto use it | 00:06 |
| === Vorian is now known as OGV | ||
| [chr0n0s] | brice, blank screen as in blank, no OS loading.. can you goto terminal by pressing Ctrl+Alt+F1 ? | 00:06 |
| lucashungaro | wildman: that sucks | 00:06 |
| wildman | comicinker, good luck | 00:06 |
| pike_ | kevinly: first thing id do is /join #compiz-fusion channel we can try to help here but.. they are more exp with it | 00:07 |
| lucashungaro | wildman: What you've done? | 00:07 |
| kevinly | thanks | 00:07 |
| cafuego | kevinly: sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager -> System > Preferences > Advanced Desktop Effects | 00:07 |
| wildman | lucashungaro, yes, big time... and as I said before someone yesterday was complaining of similar pb: X resetting itself 'alone' | 00:07 |
| === wirechief is now known as wirchief1 | ||
| kevinly | cafuego: thanks, i didn't realise that was there | 00:07 |
| kevinly | pike_: tanks | 00:07 |
| t_acko | minimec: I don't think it's alternate... it should be the standard ubuntu install disc | 00:07 |
| wildman | lucashungaro, changed Horiz and Vert refresh rates cuz my monitor wasn't properly detected (Philips 170S 17 inch LCD) | 00:07 |
| lucashungaro | wildman: sometimes it even starts on 640x480 and doesn't shows higher resolutions | 00:08 |
| wildman | lucashungaro, that way I could achieve max res: 1280x1024@75Hz | 00:08 |
| tomlarkin | does anyone in here think that they could help me out getting my radeon x1600 working? | 00:08 |
| Sn3ipen | @shimizu:Thanks but i still cant get his files :/ | 00:08 |
| === OGV is now known as vorian | ||
| wildman | lucashungaro, now it's 1280x1024@5x Hz | 00:08 |
| wirchief1 | tomlarkin we can try | 00:08 |
| Evanlec | lol | 00:08 |
| Evanlec | 5hz? | 00:08 |
| wildman | 50-51 | 00:08 |
| minimec | t_acko: I did not know, that you have an install option in the boot menu now. I thought you have to boot up gnome to install. | 00:08 |
| tafsen | Are there a post install page for Gutsy? I.E. shows you how to install mp3 support? | 00:08 |
| adac2 | how can i disable fsck checking at booting? Or at least disable this for the windows partitions which takes horrible long | 00:08 |
| lucashungaro | wildman: that's too bad for our eyes :( | 00:08 |
| wildman | 60Hz, just checked | 00:08 |
| theTrav | ok, so as far as I'm concerned gutsy's multi monitor addition is a flop :/ | 00:09 |
| wildman | I've used the x to say 0-9 ;) | 00:09 |
| tomlarkin | wirchief1 that would be great, i''ll warn you though, I've had a lot of problems getting it running on this computer for some reason | 00:09 |
| t_acko | well the hard drive it blank.. the install cd just has whatever this install application is | 00:09 |
| wirchief1 | tomlarkin: see pm | 00:09 |
| t_acko | anyway, I'll screw with it later... thanks anyway minimec | 00:09 |
| smmagic | Got it working :) thanks | 00:09 |
| minimec | t_acko: Are you in a graphical envirenment with windows? | 00:09 |
| theTrav | it can set up a second monitor for my pc, but when the resolution was different, it made the left screen display the lower resolution but draw the large resolution, so I was panning about the desktop | 00:10 |
| theTrav | >_< | 00:10 |
| c0Ld | wirechief1: I got the command to work I think...is there a way to see what driver version I'm running now? | 00:10 |
| shimizu | Sn3ipen, well if you see his pc on network and his shared folders.. maybe there some new stuff in vista.. but for sure files should have access to read.. so u can download from him.. to share files on ubuntu.. read samba documentation | 00:10 |
| t_acko | no | 00:10 |
| t_acko | booted up from the install disc | 00:10 |
| minimec | t_acko: ... and then it prompts you to start the ubuntu live disk. is that right | 00:11 |
| c0Ld | wirechief: I got the command to work I think...is there a way to see what driver version I'm running now? | 00:11 |
| gary_inNYC | finally figured out a way to easily share ntfs-3g mounted partitions to xp boxes in a LAN; it had very little to do with a lot of the documentation available.. had to install ntfs-config, remount it as writable, then edit smb.conf for security = share , guest = nobody , and add a line for the share where guest ok = yes | 00:11 |
| buttercups | tafsen, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats | 00:11 |
| wirchief1 | c0Ld: yes do in termina cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf |grep Driver | 00:11 |
| gary_inNYC | now sharing is idiot proof under these settings :) | 00:12 |
| pike_ | gary_inNYC: wiki.ubuntu.com share the experience :) | 00:12 |
| PriceChild | wirchief1, that's wasting a pipe! | 00:12 |
| brice | [chr0n0s]: yup black, ctrl+alt+F1 does nothing | 00:12 |
| * Nelsmar waves | 00:12 | |
| gary_inNYC | will do | 00:12 |
| c0Ld | wirchief1: Driver "ati" -- not too informative :( | 00:12 |
| tafsen | buttercups: Thank you | 00:12 |
| PriceChild | wirchief1, grep "Driver" /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 00:12 |
| Nelsmar | hhe my crtl+alt+f1 is messed up too :D stupid drivers | 00:12 |
| Nelsmar | tried to fix it.... and i ended up having to format and reinstall | 00:13 |
| pinion | I'm having a problem with my external usb drives under Gutsy. I didn't have a problem in Feisty but I did a clean install. Is there a way to reinstall the latest Feisty Kernel and boot into Gutsy with it? | 00:13 |
| wirchief1 | c0Ld: that tells you that you are using ati | 00:13 |
| sahil | i have my dvdrw drive being recognized by lshw yet i cant mount it, i also cant boot from cd any ideas of what i could try? | 00:13 |
| c0Ld | wirchief1: Aren't both drivers from ATI? :| | 00:13 |
| Nelsmar | anyone else having problems with black when you go to console with nvidia.. it looks liek my screen is burning up when i shift over its creepy :P | 00:13 |
| wirchief1 | c0Ld: there are open source ati | 00:14 |
| brice | Nelsmar; also get a black screen? | 00:14 |
| Nelsmar | brice yup | 00:14 |
| theTrav | why does gibbon keep prompting me for the install disk? | 00:14 |
| theTrav | can't it get what it wants from the interpipes? | 00:14 |
| c0Ld | wirchief1: Is there any way to see the actual version number? :\ I just want to make sure I'm not running .42.3 | 00:15 |
| brice | how can it be fixed? | 00:15 |
| enyc | theTrav: well it can... but if its got cd listed it will use it if that has the newest file | 00:15 |
| buttercups | theTrav, uncheck cd rom system>admin>software sources | 00:15 |
| enyc | theTrav: you can change the sources.list and comment out the cd entry... or use "synaptic" and un-tick it | 00:15 |
| wirchief1 | c0Ld: one momenet | 00:15 |
| shimizu | theTrav, in some cases it ask for cd, i dun remember last time it asked, but i just inserted and had no problems :| | 00:15 |
| comicinker | wildman: so after restart: the problem seems to be away now. thank you ;) | 00:16 |
| Evanlec | pinion, that sounds like a terrible idea | 00:16 |
| Innomen | ndiswrapper deb | 00:16 |
| Innomen | ? | 00:16 |
| wildman | comicinker, I was waiting for you to reconnect to ask. yw. | 00:16 |
| Nelsmar | brice, its a driver problem | 00:16 |
| minimec | Nelsmar: I cannot confirm that ... GE7600GS restricted driver, twinview. | 00:16 |

| theTrav | yeah I had no problems, but I can see me having problems in a month or so when I've lost the cd | 00:17 |
| Arafangion | brice: ATI. | 00:17 |
| brice | I have an nVidia 8800GTX | 00:17 |
| Innomen | Where do i get a deb for the latest ndiswrapper? the one from the cd is 1.43, its up to 1.48 | 00:17 |
| brice | so ... | 00:17 |
| Nelsmar | minimec might be because im on a mobile network card. im pretty sure thats it. also when i was using 7.10 beta fusion was awsome... then 7.10 offical came out and now it lags terribly and there is a memor leak | 00:17 |
| markoramius | Er... I have a bit of a question regarding install, if somebody wouldn't mind helping me out... | 00:17 |
| Nelsmar | brice and your having hte problem when you switch to consodle you get a black screen? | 00:17 |
| Arafangion | brice: somewhat better than ati. :) | 00:17 |
| pinion | Evanlec: I don't know what else to do | 00:18 |
| Nelsmar | i havnt tried on my desktop... ide have to see if it gets a black screen too. im failry certain my problem is because i am usin an nvidi amobile vidoe card and the normal drivers dont realyl work on my laptop :p | 00:18 |
| Innomen | I'm gunna ahve to stop recommending ubutu to people if networking is such low priority and upgrades are always so catastrophic | 00:18 |
| thedefender | is it possible to get DRI on dual heads using the latest FGLRX release and AIGLX | 00:18 |
| brice | Nelsmar: no I just installed gutsy on an external drive, and when I select it in grub I get two lines and then black screen | 00:18 |
| pinguin85 | hello there | 00:18 |
| minimec | Nelsmar: I don't have much experience with nvidia, but as an old ATI user, I am glad to have a GeForce now. ;) | 00:18 |
| brice | recovery mode seems to work though | 00:18 |
| Nelsmar | brice oh completley diff problme htan me lol | 00:19 |
| pinguin85 | i know this will be the 40000 question i´ll ask, but maybe somebody can help me :( | 00:19 |
| brice | my first time trying linux other than on virtual machine | 00:19 |
| Nelsmar | minimec yeah lol the reason i use nvidia is because ati used to have terrible linux support for drivers | 00:19 |
| lucashungaro | Anyone knows how to enable refresh rates greater than 58Hz? I have a GeForce 6600GT and my monitor supports 1280x1024@80Hz on Windows. | 00:19 |
| pinguin85 | i know this will be the 40000 question i´ll ask, but maybe somebody can help me :( | 00:19 |
| brice | proving to be quite a pita | 00:19 |

| brice | also had the problem with the standard iso, so I installed using the alternate | 00:20 |
| zOap | If I would run mplayer in gnome-terminal with a playlist what should I type in the run dialog? like: gnome-terminal -? mplayer -playlist /path/to ? | 00:20 |
| shimizu | lucashungaro, u can set up rate by editing xorg.conf.. manually | 00:20 |
| Innomen | pike_: if i'm supposed ot wait a month tne they should delay release for a month :P | 00:20 |
| gutsyAleExXxX | Is there any way to stop ubuntu adding icons to my desktop? e.g CD-ROM icon | 00:20 |

| deadlylife | Hey guys, Fish here, Ubuntu is working. | 00:21 |
| Innomen | pike_: why would you delete support for a device? i can see halting support for it, but making it not work entierly? | 00:21 |
| Sn3ipen1 | I found my mates vista computer in the network but i was asked for a pasword?? | 00:21 |
| deadlylife | Now how to I use Compiz? | 00:21 |
| Sn3ipen1 | sorry.. bad english | 00:21 |
| Ominous | heya i am having some problems with vent and wine which i didnt have in fiesty, anyone expierenced in this arena? | 00:21 |
| Innomen | Sn3ipen1: samba, yur gunna have to make a password | 00:21 |
| johey | sn3ipen1: usually the Administrator account will have a blank password | 00:21 |
| lucashungaro | shimizu: I did open that file and it lists all correct resolutions and refresh rates. But they doesn't appear in the settings | 00:21 |
| shimizu | lucashungaro, u sure u corrected right string ? | 00:21 |
| wildman | bon ppl... gotta leave | 00:21 |
| minimec | Nelsmar: I played around with it, but I am an enlightenment e17 user. It's working great even with twinview. | 00:22 |
| Innomen | Sn3ipen1: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/create-a-samba-user-on-ubuntu/ | 00:22 |
| wildman | have a nice one ! | 00:22 |
| * pinguin85 slaps i3d around a bit with a large trout | 00:22 | |
| buttercups | markoramius, download and burn a gparted live cd, boot from it , shrink that bad vista down some =) | 00:22 |
| lucashungaro | shimizu: In the graphical tool it lists some weirdness like 1600x1200@90Hz | 00:22 |
| Sn3ipen1 | we dont know what password | 00:22 |
| shimizu | lucashungaro, u sure u corrected right string ? | 00:22 |
| Innomen | Sn3ipen1: read the link, you have to create one | 00:22 |
| lucashungaro | shimizu: I didn't changed anything on the file | 00:22 |
| Nelsmar | minimec: so your not usin fusion? | 00:22 |
| deadlylife | Now how do I use Compiz? | 00:22 |
| thedefender | markoramius: Just use Gparted to resize your windowes partition, then using the free space you have made create a new partition for ubuntu, you will need at least 2Gig for ubuntu, you will also need to create a swap partition which should double the size of system memory. All this can be done in the Ubuntu Live CD | 00:22 |
| brice | Nelsmar: well recovery mode works, I can startx | 00:22 |
| markoramius | buttercups, I can just directly shrink the partition without damaging the data inside? I haven't done a lot of work with partitioning volumes that currently have data. | 00:22 |
| brice | so I don't think the external drive is the problem | 00:22 |
| Nelsmar | deadlylife you need to install restricte drivers System : Administration : Restrcited drivers | 00:22 |
| Innomen | Sn3ipen1: of course nothing TELLS you that yur supposed to be born knowing it, thats what i spent the first 5 hours of today doing | 00:22 |
| lucashungaro | shimizu: The correct mode is there, but id doesn't appear on the configuration tool | 00:23 |
| Nelsmar | deadlylife: once you install yoru restricted ib elevie itl auto turn on on the low settting. then go to apearance and you can turn up the fusion options | 00:23 |
| Nelsmar | brice: so you are getting a console ?? | 00:23 |
| deadlylife | Hm... | 00:23 |
| deadlylife | Okay. | 00:23 |
| thedefender | markoramius: Due to a bug in the Ubuntu installer use the Gparted found in your System menu | 00:23 |
| pike_ | Innomen: i doubt it is intentional.. is there anything in launchpad about a bug? | 00:23 |
| neopsyche | shimizu: var/www says that i am not the owner of the file so i cant write to it. | 00:23 |
| Nelsmar | brice: sorry so many text... im a slow reader XD | 00:23 |
| neopsyche | how to i make myself root by default? | 00:23 |
| minimec | Nelsmar: I made such silly things like playing a youtube video, watching tv with tvtime and running totem with a movie to test that card in twinview. Works great! I am using compiz-fusion. | 00:23 |
| brice | can pm? | 00:23 |
| buttercups | markoramius, sure can thats what gparted live cd does , always good to back up though =) | 00:23 |
| Nelsmar | yeahhh i can watch porn on ubuntu now | 00:23 |
| Nelsmar | lol | 00:23 |
| neopsyche | shimizu: if im not the owner of my files then who is? | 00:23 |
| pinguin85 | the problem is, i can ping my ehternet card but cannot connect to the internet | 00:23 |
| shimizu | neopsyche, easy solution sudo chmod 775 /var/www | 00:23 |
| lucashungaro | shimizu: Do I have to delete the other modes and let just 1280x1024@80Hz there? | 00:23 |
| neopsyche | thanks | 00:23 |
| markoramius | thedefender, Gparted is on the live CD? | 00:23 |
| Nelsmar | minimec: no memory leaks? | 00:23 |
| shimizu | neopsyche, to check owner ls -l | 00:23 |
| Nelsmar | after about 30mins i hit 92% memory and then my mouse stoppd funcitonng properly | 00:24 |
| shimizu | lucashungaro, nope.. is there only 1 string with modes under Defaultdepth 24 ? | 00:24 |
| Innomen | pike_: does it matter? if i'm the only one to report it they'll ignore it, if 200 people are haveing the same problem, why waste my time? | 00:24 |
| lucashungaro | shimizu: let me see | 00:24 |
| markoramius | buttercups, We've already backed up any vital data, and I figured there would be an easy utility for this, but I haven't done a Linux/Ubuntu install before... and it's not my computer. ^_^;; | 00:24 |
| brice | Nelsmar: pm | 00:24 |
| neopsyche | shimizu: but does that compromise my server security? | 00:24 |
| trixon | Hi, how do I change the path for the default document directory like in Kubuntu/kde? | 00:24 |
| shimizu | neopsyche, yep it does... owner of /var/www should be www-data .. this is apache2 group | 00:25 |
| nickrud | neopsyche: yes, you should move files into that directory using sudo. | 00:25 |
| Innomen | pike_: can you help me find the newest deb for ndiswrapper? | 00:25 |
| buttercups | markoramius, yes http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php | 00:25 |
| neopsyche | shimizu: it still says i dont have access | 00:25 |
| minimec | Nelsmar: nope. tvtime has some short interruptions sometimes, but I guess this is my P4 1.5 ;) | 00:25 |
| markoramius | buttercups: Thanks for the heads-up. ^_^ | 00:25 |
| neopsyche | nickrud: im using ubuntu install with gnome | 00:25 |
| c0Ld | wirchief1: I -THINK- I'm finally on my old driver, but I'm not 100% sure =| | 00:25 |
| pinguin85 | i would be apreciated, if somebody text with me in a query! | 00:25 |
| neopsyche | nickrud: nautilus to copy files | 00:25 |
| shimizu | what does ls -l says about www dir ? | 00:25 |
| pinguin85 | the problem is, i can ping my ehternet card but cannot connect to the internet | 00:25 |
| wirchief1 | c0Ld: very good | 00:25 |
| shimizu | neopsyche, what does ls -l says about www dir ? | 00:25 |
| lucashungaro | shimizu: no... there is a lot of modes | 00:25 |
| thedefender | markoramius: You won't need the Gparted live cd, you can use the Ubuntu Live CD | 00:26 |
| Innomen | pike_: you'd think the ndiswrapper page would have one, but there i go thinking logically again, silly me | 00:26 |
| Nelsmar | minimec: to be expected. now compiz fusion doenst owrk haha | 00:26 |
| astro76 | minimec, yeah with that CPU you won't really be able to run more than the most basic de-interlacing mode, otherwise it will stutter | 00:26 |
| nickrud | neopsyche: I understand, but nautilus is really meant for user files, not system files. When you work with the system, you should use the terminal. Or, alt-f2 gksudo nautilus . (DANGEROUS) | 00:26 |
| astro76 | minimec, in tvtime | 00:26 |
| markoramius | thedefender: The utility's already included? | 00:26 |
| pike_ | Innomen: sorry ive never used ndiswrapper but try www.getdeb.net | 00:26 |
| neopsyche | nickrud: bash: /var/www: is a directory | 00:26 |
| shimizu | lucashungaro, there should string modes and if it's only one than it's weird.. if there are lots of modes string u should check one wich has depth 24 near it | 00:26 |
| dougb | does anyone know if it is necessary to use the ndiswrapper with a broadcom 1390 wireless card? or can i use the broadcom firmware that 7.10 will download? | 00:26 |
| neopsyche | bash: /var/www: is a directory | 00:26 |
| thedefender | markoramius: yes it is located in the systems menu under partition editor | 00:26 |
| nickrud | neopsyche: sure is, what's the command that got you that error? | 00:27 |
| minimec | astro76: Yeah, but it runs quiet nice ... | 00:27 |
| markoramius | thedefender: Awesome. Thanks a million for the help, man. | 00:27 |
| astro76 | minimec, oh yeah ;) | 00:27 |
| thedefender | after you resize run the installer on desktop | 00:27 |

| nickrud | neopsyche: yes, that sounds right. So, to copy over your web site, assuming it's at /home/neosyche/web , you'd do sudo cp ~/web/* /var/www | 00:29 |

| johnny_C | andres: thanks. what benefit does gutsy have over feisty that I can't get by updating via adept? specifically, will i get kernel updates through adept? (i can update the software myself if I have to) | 00:46 |
| PriceChild | deadlylife, read the announcement about gutsy on ubuntu.com | 00:47 |
| act1v8 | why did I pass that -h? | 00:47 |
| thedefender | dealylife: Well compiz fusion is built in, a new indexing search system, ummm | 00:47 |
| deadlylife | PriceChild, okay | 00:47 |
| g0th | I simply took the root parameter from the ubuntu kernel settings | 00:47 |
| Winball | neopsyche Did you open port 80 and 443 in your router? | 00:47 |

| neopsyche | Winball: isnt it a security risk ? | 00:48 |
| Winball | neopsyche No, not at all | 00:48 |
| neopsyche | Winball: port 80 they cant change the files? | 00:48 |
| neopsyche | Winball: they need passwords? | 00:48 |
| Pelo | oxeimon, ask a specific question you are more likely to get an answer, but I think you chould look for a latex channel | 00:48 |

| JimmyDee | Blas89, did you verify the install disk? | 00:53 |
| neopsyche | shimizu: how do i set common access? | 00:53 |

| deaddreamer | what do i use to get the taskbar change?? the bit with the time... applications.. places.. etc | 00:56 |
| shimizu | ckin2001, he is unable to write in /var/www after chmod 777 -R | 00:56 |
| deaddreamer | ?? | 00:56 |
| thinman1189 | phaedra : how do i use ndiswrapper if i can't install it? | 00:56 |
| ir4d0m | im trying to change my ip address... how do i do it? besides tor | 00:56 |
| usr13 | riotkittie: very good! :) | 00:56 |
| Nelsmar | k guys im out diner time :) | 00:56 |
| neopsyche | shimizu: what do i type ? one last time. | 00:56 |
| nickrud | neopsyche: the basic technique is to have the /var/www directory owned by www-data ; all the stuff below as root. Only change the owner of directories to www-data if you want apache to be able to *write* to that directory | 00:56 |
| usr13 | ir4d0m: sudo ifconfig new.ip.here | 00:57 |
| myusrnm | I want to uninstall azures. I installed it using sudo aptitude install azures or something of that sort, how do i uninstall? | 00:57 |
| phaedra | thinman1189, Put the disk into the drive and cd to the xp driver directory and type 'sudo ndiswrapper -i drivername.inf' | 00:57 |
| Sharpie | ok, seriously, this is the 2nd time TODAY that i suddenly can't start apps, i restart x server and then i get the "could not start x server..internal error...can't start GDM" screen. i'm seriously not into reinstalling linux for the 2nd time in a day, anyone have any idea on how to fix it? | 00:57 |
| shimizu | neopsyche, sudo chmod 777 -R /var/www it has to work | 00:57 |
| neopsyche | nickrud: i want me to be able to write to that directory | 00:57 |
| kc | myusrnm: apt-get remove azerus | 00:57 |
| danc3 | anyone know why I can't get a framebuffer console (Alt-Ctrl-F2) on a new 7.10 install? Can only get a "regular" screen resolution. | 00:57 |
| ir4d0m | usr13: what would i change it to and what would i do for gateway ip? | 00:57 |
| phaedra | thinman1189, 'drivername' being the name of the xp driver. | 00:57 |
| nickrud | neopsyche: sudo cp will allow you to write anywhere | 00:57 |
| BubblegumTate | I don't seem to be able to set a maximum size in "windows list preferences" anymore, has teh option moved or is it just gone? | 00:57 |
| kc | myusrnm: apt-get -h | 00:57 |
| thinman1189 | phaedra : ok 1 sec i'll try that. | 00:57 |
| Eagle3-- | Sharpie: what version of ubuntu are you running? | 00:58 |
| usr13 | ir4d0m: sudo route add default gw ip.he.re | 00:58 |
| neopsyche | nickrud: but will it change my file permissions to be able to use natuilus as file copy paste etc in default user account? | 00:58 |
| shimizu | nickrud, make everything under www-data is allow apache to manage files.. but everything else like eclipse environment.. should i add it in www-data group ? i don't like this wat. ;) | 00:58 |
| deaddreamer | what kind of themes are for the taskbars?? | 00:58 |
| phaedra | thinman1189, I'm using an F5D7050 with the XP driver and ndiswrapper right now so it should work... | 00:58 |
| Sharpie | Eagle3--: gutsy | 00:58 |
| Eagle3-- | Sharpie: what types of applications won't run? do command line applications run? | 00:58 |
| usr13 | ir4d0m: that was to put in new gateway ip. | 00:58 |
| ir4d0m | usr13: would i create any gateway ip or what? | 00:58 |
| Sharpie | Eagle3--: my ubuntu is dead | 00:58 |
| Sharpie | Eagle3--: >_>.. | 00:58 |
| nickrud | neopsyche: yes, but if you plan on serving people outside your computer, doing that is a deadly security breach | 00:58 |
| noa1 | can anybody recommend a good alternative to rhythmbox? | 00:59 |
| usr13 | ir4d0m: sudo route add default gw ###.###.#.# | 00:59 |
| Eagle3-- | Sharpie: what do you mean by dead? can you login to the command line and run programs? | 00:59 |
| usr13 | to hcange gateway ^^^^ | 00:59 |
| Sharpie | Eagle3--: i can't even login to recovery mode | 00:59 |
| BubblegumTate | noa1: just for playing music or for interfacing with an dap? | 00:59 |
| myusrnm | thanks, kc | 00:59 |
| neopsyche | nickrud: ok.. i appreciate the help... BUT .. nuckrud .. you say its a security breach... and shimizu says .. its a terrible idea to run as root because It will be difficult to change / add files. | 00:59 |
| neopsyche | nickrud: so ? | 00:59 |
| nickrud | shimizu: I don't write directly to the /var/www from eclipse myslef | 00:59 |
| Eagle3-- | Sharpie: does it give you any error messages when you try to login to recovery mode? | 01:00 |
| thinman1189 | phaedra : i'm on amd 64, does it matter? | 01:00 |
| Sharpie | Eagle3--: yes, it starts a disk check and then fails | 01:00 |
| BubblegumTate | noa1: I use amarok, but it is a k app | 01:00 |
| buttercups | noa1, Amarok is a good alternative | 01:00 |
| Eagle3-- | Sharpie: the disk check fails? | 01:00 |
| nickrud | neopsyche: he's thinking about a server that only feeds pages to him, on the local machine, for development. So he does it easy | 01:00 |
| shimizu | nickrud, when ur working on project and testin do u copy each time u change 2 strings in script ? | 01:00 |
| === myusrnm is now known as go1 | ||
| JimmyDee | amarok is coolio, for a K app | 01:00 |
| Sharpie | Eagle3--: obviously | 01:00 |
| === go1 is now known as mephistopheles | ||
| noa1 | BubblegumTate, buttercups: hmm ok | 01:00 |
| Eagle3-- | Sharpie: what's the error message? | 01:00 |
| neopsyche | nickrud: ok.. thanks ;-) | 01:00 |
| === kc_ is now known as yskchu | ||
| noa1 | anything good for gnome? | 01:00 |
| Sharpie | Eagle3--: there's like a 1000 of them | 01:00 |
| neopsyche | nickrud: so i will just have to use natuilus in root to do anything right? | 01:01 |
| buttercups | noa1, It can be ran on gnome | 01:01 |
| acdcZZTOP | anyone ever heard of firefox screwing their PC due to a possble memory leak? | 01:01 |
| JimmyDee | audacious is ok | 01:01 |
| nickrud | shimizu: for my local devel, I have a separate /home/www I feed from, that's only accessible to me :) | 01:01 |
| phaedra | thinman1189, I really don't know but it might.... You can try it though and if it doesn't work just remove the driver with the -r option to ndiswrapper and try to find the 64 bit version. | 01:01 |
| usr13 | ir4d0m: There is a GUI application: System -> Network | 01:01 |
| Eagle3-- | Sharpie: well if could be a hard drive failure...it's hard to tell when I don't know what any of your error messages are | 01:01 |
| FluxD | acdcZZTOP: on windows yes | 01:01 |
| mephistopheles | How would i install the 3.0 line of azureus, vuze? | 01:01 |
| BubblegumTate | noa1: yeah, I'm running it in gnome because I hated all teh other music players | 01:01 |
| Hellclan|Oracleg | can any one help me with samba it wont associate the machines ip with there name | 01:01 |
| Sharpie | Eagle3--: it's not a HD failure =\ | 01:01 |
| RAdams | anyone here using Gutsy amd64 with skype? | 01:01 |
| dannyboy | can any1 tell me where i can download themes for gnome under ubuntu? | 01:01 |
| deaddreamer | how do i install compiz themes? | 01:01 |
| noa1 | BubblegumTate: oh to answer your question, just for playing music, with emphasis on streams... rb acts weird a lot in that department | 01:02 |
| Sharpie | Eagle3--: the errors are stuff like..um, like these 4 line errors with all sorts of numbers | 01:02 |
| shimizu | nickrud, well i have this set up at work so people from lan near me can access to it.. for web-server it has to be other set up anyways | 01:02 |
| nickrud | neopsyche: again, I really recommend not using nautilus as root, it is so freaking easy to blow up your system without realizing it. | 01:02 |
| neopsyche | nickrud: hmm strangely enough.. it now allows me to change files | 01:02 |
| JimmyDee | Hellclan|Oracleg, did you tell the machines about your wins server? | 01:02 |
| BubblegumTate | I even hated the player that I tried out that tried to be a gnome native amarok clone | 01:02 |
| brice | c parti pour une réinstall de gutsy | 01:02 |
| Eagle3-- | Sharpie: not a kernel oops is it? | 01:02 |
| nickrud | neopsyche: yes, the 777 did that | 01:02 |
| neopsyche | nickrud: blow it up .. how? | 01:02 |
| Jordan_U_ | deaddreamer, Do you have compizconfig-settings-manager installed? | 01:02 |
| RAdams | dannyboy: there are some in the repositories: search "gtk themes" and more at gnome-look.org | 01:02 |
| Sharpie | Eagle3--: dunno =\ | 01:02 |
| usr13 | neopsyche: What are y ou trying to do? | 01:02 |
| RAdams | !english | brice | 01:02 |
| deaddreamer | i have a "advanced desktop effects manager" | 01:02 |
| ubotu | brice: The #ubuntu, #kubuntu and #xubuntu channels are English only. For a complete list of channels in other languages, please visit http://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat | 01:02 |
| neopsyche | nickrud: so .. now? is it cool to use as all files 777>? using my account .. without root... | 01:02 |
| Eagle3-- | Sharpie: sorry but it's hard for me to help if I don't know what any of the error messages are | 01:02 |
| thinman1189 | phaedra : i'm not sure which driver on the cd to use. | 01:02 |
| JimmyDee | brice #ubuntu-fr | 01:02 |
| dannyboy | RAdams: thanx.. | 01:02 |
| deaddreamer | to play around with effects, but thats it, no theme section | 01:02 |
| Hellclan|Oracleg | JimmyDee, wins is dissabled though my windoze machine can see the file on unbuntu and ubuntu can see the file only when the ip is entered | 01:02 |
| thinman1189 | phaedra : blkwgd.inf ? | 01:03 |
| Sharpie | Eagle3--: mostly regarding bad extensions | 01:03 |
| Eagle3-- | Sharpie: you could try booting from a live cd then running an fsck on the hard drive | 01:03 |
| nickrud | neopsyche: as long as you only feed yourself, no big deal. Or only feed people you trust, on a local lan. The world wide web? dangerous | 01:03 |
| phaedra | thinman1189, What is in the DRIVER directory? Is there an XP dir? | 01:03 |
| mephistopheles | I need to get java runtime and libjava.so for a program, how do i install ? | 01:03 |
| JimmyDee | Hellclan|Oracleg, let your samba box do wins support and then tell the windoze box to look at the samba box for wins | 01:03 |
| Sharpie | Eagle3--: i ran a dsck from recovery mode, still didn't fix it | 01:03 |
| usr13 | neopsyche: You do NOT want to chmod 777 all files. Bad Idea. | 01:03 |
| deaddreamer | it says its alredy installed Jordan_U | 01:03 |
| Sharpie | fcsk* | 01:03 |
| neopsyche | nickrud: I can change it later if i go live right? | 01:03 |
| BubblegumTate | noa1: if ou're not too fussed about playlist handling vlc does a good job of everything else | 01:03 |
| shimizu | neopsyche, for first time u'd better use /home/URNAME/www to install project and read something about access. u can't set up everything that fast by other suggestions.. u can change /var/www to /home/../www in apache2.conf located in /etc/apache2/apache2.conf | 01:03 |
| Jordan_U_ | deaddreamer, Oh, do you Emerald theme manager installed if you want Emerald themes? | 01:03 |
| nickrud | neopsyche: yes. | 01:03 |
| Eagle3-- | Sharpie: I thought you said recovery mode didn't work? | 01:04 |
| Hellclan|Oracleg | JimmyDee, ? | 01:04 |
| Sharpie | Eagle3--: it didn't boot, but it stayed in the console | 01:04 |
| nickrud | neopsyche: but you still should learn the terminal commands :) | 01:04 |
| shimizu | neopsyche, in /home/urname/www u will have fully access to manage ur files =) | 01:04 |
| neopsyche | nickrud: cool | 01:04 |
| phaedra | thinman1189, Let me get my driver disk and I'll check it out... | 01:04 |
| thinman1189 | phaedra : in the driver folder on the cd there is blkwgd.cat, blkwgd.inf, blkwgd.sys, blkwgd9x.sys, driver.2k2, driver.982 driver.me2 | 01:04 |
| noa1 | BubblegumTate: true.. but i am fussy about playlist handling :o) | 01:04 |
| deaddreamer | i have emerald theme manager, but i want themes that change the taskbars, i see that emerald doesn't change this | 01:04 |
| JimmyDee | Hellclan|Oracleg, I'm not sure how to do it using supported methods, but what you need to do is turn on wins support in samba, then point your windoze boxes at the samba box for wins support | 01:04 |
| xypezza | ; /me waves! | 01:04 |
| Eagle3-- | Sharpie: how did it not boot but get to the console? you can only get to a console after it's done booting | 01:05 |
| Sharpie | Eagle3--: dos screen. \= | 01:05 |
| Hellclan|Oracleg | how will that fix that ? JimmyDee | 01:05 |
| bluejay | hello | 01:05 |
| neopsyche | shimizu: but will it be easy to change it to a directory accessable to the outside world when i have installed mysql dbs and php? | 01:05 |
| Eagle3-- | Sharpie: that means it booted | 01:05 |
| RAdams | deaddreamer: the gnome panels are changed either with gtk themes or by right clicking on them and selecting "Properties", where you can set images and transparancies and colors. | 01:05 |
| BubblegumTate | so ... anyone know why I cant set max/min sizes in "Windows list preferences" anymore | 01:05 |
| Jordan_U_ | deaddreamer, Neither does Compiz, the panels ( 'task bars' ) are controlled by gnome-panel, they have nothing to do with compiz | 01:05 |
| B_166-ER-X | what is the name of the app that can change the font and color of the taskbar 'system menu' 'Applications' 'Shortcuts' 'System' | 01:05 |
| JimmyDee | hellclan wins resolves names to ip's | 01:05 |
| JimmyDee | doesnt it? | 01:06 |
| Sharpie | Eagle3--: it failed in the middle of the boot process, did a disk check, failed and stayed in that screen | 01:06 |
| JimmyDee | been a while | 01:06 |
| Jordan_U_ | B_166-ER-X, alacarte | 01:06 |
| RAdams | bubblegumtate: do you have compiz-fusion active? | 01:06 |
| shimizu | neopsyche, u will need to set up virtual host in apache and that's all | 01:06 |
| acdcZZTOP | its a shame taht firefox sucks on my PC | 01:06 |
| tbuss | trying to mount a udf dvd-r; I have tried several fstab configurations but the disk still fails to mount | 01:06 |
| Hellclan|Oracleg | JimmyDee, not shure just when ever i enable wins i cant seem to share anything | 01:06 |
| B_166-ER-X | jordan_U_ not this at all. | 01:06 |
| === ubuntu is now known as unagi | ||
| BubblegumTate | RAdams: yes | 01:06 |
| RAdams | bubblegumtate: sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager | 01:06 |
| deaddreamer | RAdams, how do i use gtk?? | 01:06 |
| neopsyche | shimizu: hmmm.. a virtual host that points to me/home/www ??? | 01:06 |
| Eagle3-- | Sharpie: so the disk check failed | 01:06 |
| c0Ld | wirchief1: I'm back, send me a message, don't have a registered account | 01:06 |
| JimmyDee | Hellclan|Oracleg, do you have the windoze boxes pointed at the samba box for wins? | 01:06 |
| RAdams | deaddreamer: you are using it now. What you want are themes, set in the appearance preference tool | 01:06 |
| BubblegumTate | I have that | 01:06 |
| shimizu | neopsyche, yes. right now it points to /var/www/apache2-default | 01:06 |
| Sharpie | Eagle3--: as i said before | 01:07 |
| shimizu | neopsyche, u cant check it by typing localhost in browser | 01:07 |
| chybeck | hi, got a problem, i did "sudo update-initramfs -u" cause i didn't have any splash screen , and now i can boot neither in rescue mode, i'm in commande line with argument (initramfs) . What can i do ? | 01:07 |
| deaddreamer | RAdams, thanks :D | 01:07 |
| RAdams | deaddreamer: you can search synaptic for "gtk theme" to find some more, or gnome-look.org | 01:07 |
| Hellclan|Oracleg | what you win for wins JimmyDee i just have them open for shared folder | 01:07 |
| shimizu | neopsyche, u can* | 01:07 |
| Eagle3-- | Sharpie: if a disk check fails then something is wrong with the hard drive | 01:07 |
| neopsyche | shimizu: UH..actually .. i see it in localhost | 01:07 |
| deaddreamer | yep, im un gnome-look, just didn't know how to use the stuff heheheh | 01:07 |
| acdcZZTOP | Does anyone know how to access compizconfig-settings-manager after installing it? im looking and looking but i cant find anything | 01:07 |
| JimmyDee | Hellclan|Oracleg, win for wins? | 01:07 |
| phaedra | thinman1189, Try the blkwgd.inf with ndiswrapper. I'm using rt2500 driver here... | 01:07 |
| Sharpie | Eagle3--: or something is wrong with linux >_< | 01:07 |
| RAdams | chybek: have you tried sudo update-grub? | 01:07 |
| Eagle3-- | Sharpie: I doubt it's linux | 01:08 |
| tbuss | trying to mount a udf dvd-r; I have tried several fstab configurations but the disk still fails to mount | 01:08 |

| neopsyche | ok | 01:08 |
| Hellclan|Oracleg | JimmyDee, it is just and indepent computer sharing one folder not running any other services | 01:08 |

| noa1 | dannyboy: among other ways | 01:12 |
| Eagle3-- | Sharpie: sorry it's hard for me to help any further without more information...I don't know exactly what your errors are | 01:12 |
| gary_inNYC | ubotu are you like a magic eightball? | 01:12 |
| usr13 | what is a cms? | 01:12 |
| daedra | pidgin won't connect in gutsy :( | 01:12 |
| Sharpie | JimmyDee: anyway, twice the root drive just suddenly became read-only, i restarted the x server and got an error and wasn't able to boot anymore | 01:12 |
| neopsyche | shimizu: how do i do that? | 01:12 |
| shimizu | neopsyche, with chgrp | 01:12 |
| thinman1189 | phaedra : oops i did type i in terminal i just typed it wrong here :-\ | 01:12 |
| deaddreamer | how do i install icon themes? :P | 01:12 |
| JimmyDee | Sharpie, tried rescue and fsck it? | 01:13 |
| neopsyche | shimizu: well.. what applications need to access them? | 01:13 |
| shimizu | neopsyche, if it's web-application it's apache ... | 01:13 |
| Sharpie | JimmyDee: have no idea what rescue is, but i did fsck it | 01:13 |
| phaedra | thinman1189, you can get a help list too from ndiswrapper. | 01:13 |
| JimmyDee | Sharpie, and fsck said? | 01:13 |
| Jordan_U_ | deaddreamer, http://tinyurl.com/2yageu | 01:13 |
| Sharpie | JimmyDee: gave a shitload of errors but eventually finished | 01:13 |
| Jordan_U_ | deaddreamer, Then go to System -> Preferences -> Art Manager | 01:13 |
| JimmyDee | Sharpie, have you another hard drive handy? | 01:14 |
| neopsyche | shimizu: what do i type to do that? | 01:14 |
| shimizu | neopsyche, for example if ur cms use sessions it has to write in session directory.. and if it's located inside /var/ww .. this folder has to have group - www-data, otherwise session files won't be saved on disk | 01:14 |
| mnuaimat | hi | 01:14 |
| mnuaimat | i want to upgrade from ubuntu 7.04 to 7.10, my 7.04 is installed in a dual booting system along with xp, what cautions should i take, what is the correct procedure not to miss things up ?? any help? | 01:14 |
| Sharpie | JimmyDee: only thing close to a hard drive i have is a 1gb DOK \= | 01:14 |
| neopsyche | shimizu: how ? | 01:14 |
| jotham | hi, i am having trouble upgrading from 7.4 to 7.10, the upgrade manager states "The system was unable to get the prerequisites for the upgrade. The upgrade will abort now and restore the original system state." | 01:14 |
| ckin2001 | tbuss - are you sure udf is a valid option? | 01:14 |
| shimizu | neopsyche, sudo chgrp www-data /folder ... where folder is a folder which u need to change group | 01:14 |
| brad016 | I just installed 7.10 and need to make my Windows(NTFS) partition a lot smaller | 01:14 |
| Jordan_U_ | !upgrade | mnuaimat | 01:14 |
| ubotu | mnuaimat: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes | 01:14 |
| linuxnewbie_41 | I can't install 7.10. | 01:14 |
| JimmyDee | Sharpie, may I suggest you find another hard drive, when fsck goes ballistic thats usually the cause | 01:14 |
| phaedra | thinman1189, What command did you type in console? | 01:15 |
| Jordan_U_ | brad016, Boot the LiveCD and use gparted | 01:15 |
| Sharpie | JimmyDee: well, windows is working | 01:15 |
| mnuaimat | !upgrade | 01:15 |
| shimizu | neopsyche, for every command u need to get info u have 2 ways: 1. man COMMAN.. or 2. command --help in terminal | 01:15 |
| linuxnewbie_41 | I already amde a partition in Windows using Norton Partition Magic. | 01:15 |
| brad016 | Jordan_U, okally | 01:15 |
| Sharpie | JimmyDee: conclusion: linux is retarded =[ | 01:15 |
| ckin2001 | tbuss, i'd try sudo mount -v /dev/scd0 -t iso9660 /media/cdrom0 | 01:15 |
| neopsyche | shimizu: but .. my files / cms already seems accessable through the browser.. im not sure why i would wnat to do that/? | 01:15 |
| chybeck | hi, got a problem, i did "sudo update-initramfs -u" cause i didn't have any splash screen , and now i can boot neither in rescue mode, i'm in commande line with argument (initramfs) . What can i do ? | 01:15 |
| tbuss | ckin2001: not sure, I was curious as to if it was possible to even read the disk | 01:15 |
| shimizu | neopsyche, well if ur not sure than just don't do it | 01:15 |
| JimmyDee | Sharpie, conclusion invalid, the linux part of the drive may be boffo | 01:15 |
| linuxnewbie_41 | The installer keeps trying to write files to the Windows drive. | 01:15 |
| bluejay | f | 01:15 |
| linuxnewbie_41 | Any suggestions so that I can have a dual-boot computer? | 01:16 |
| Sharpie | JimmyDee: so it should mark those few sectors as bad and not use 'em | 01:16 |
| JimmyDee | Sharpie, in a perfect world | 01:16 |
| ckin2001 | linuxnewbie_41, you have to have multiple partitions | 01:16 |
| usr13 | neopsyche: linuxnewbie_41 Delete the new partition. It will install on "free space" | 01:16 |
| Sharpie | JimmyDee: sad thing is i actually loved linux | 01:16 |
| Sharpie | JimmyDee: i miss my wobbly windows for god's sake =[ | 01:16 |
| usr13 | linuxnewbie_41: You can use fdisk to delete the new partition. | 01:16 |

| linuxnewbie_41 | Does that allocate space for a new Linux partition? | 01:17 |
| JimmyDee | Sharpie, all is not lost, try rescue from the install disk and fsck it again | 01:17 |
| crimsun_ | thinman1189: install ndiswrapper-utils-1.9 | 01:17 |
| tbuss | ckin2001: tried manual; wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/scd0, missing codepage or helper program, or other error | 01:17 |
| usr13 | linuxnewbie_41: Just delete the partition you do not need for your other OS> | 01:17 |
| bqmassey | thats what i needed, thanks Jordan_U | 01:17 |
| Sharpie | JimmyDee: what do you mean by rescue? =[ | 01:17 |
| Roo-kie | all my window bars just vanished. How do I get them back? | 01:17 |
| thinman1189 | crimsun : how? | 01:17 |
| Sharpie | JimmyDee: and i already fsck'd it around 3 times | 01:17 |
| usr13 | linuxnewbie_41: And install on free space. (linux needs more than one partition) | 01:17 |
| thinman1189 | crimsun : how? i'm not connected to the internet | 01:17 |
| daedra | thinman1189: ndiswrapper is BAAAAD | 01:17 |

| Jordan_U_ | Roo-kie, metacity --replace | 01:17 |
| phaedra | thinman1189, Hmmm.... That means you don't have ndiswrapper installed. Which version of Ubuntu are you using. | 01:17 |
| Hellclan|Oracleg | load the cd right it has a rescue option | 01:18 |
| Roo-kie | thanks | 01:18 |
| crimsun_ | thinman1189: make sure your CD is loaded, then apt-get install ndiswrapper-utils-1.9 | 01:18 |

| thinman1189 | daedra : well i can't get my belkin card to work. | 01:18 |
| phaedra | thinman1189, What crimsun_ said... | 01:18 |
| shimizu | neopsyche, why do u need that u can use root user for db... u need different users only in case u going to give them rights for different DBs do u need that? | 01:18 |
| Bogaurd | LiMaO: maybe ;) | 01:18 |
| LiMaO | [22:19:05] Bogaurd [i=rootkit@219-90-251-202.ip.adam.com.au] has joined #ubuntu | 01:18 |
| starkruzr | hi guys. I have a SATA motherboard and two identical hard drives connected to it. they are both 160GB. I have the Ubuntu livecd installer disc. is there any way I can go from THIS situation to having RAID1 across the two drives? the installer does not appear to give an option for it. | 01:18 |
| Jordan_U_ | Roo-kie, np, if you were running compiz it crashed, that is why you lost window borders and titles | 01:18 |
| neopsyche | usr13: I installed LAMP on ubuntu.. now .. wondering. how to add a user to a db? | 01:18 |
| daedra | thinman1189: ok, well type lspci | 01:18 |
| neopsyche | shimizu: i created a new db. | 01:18 |
| LiMaO | Bogaurd: that rootkit thing scared me =P | 01:18 |
| Bogaurd | haha | 01:18 |
| Sharpie | JimmyDee: hrmm? | 01:18 |
| johnficca | why is the internet in ubuntu 7.10 so slow? | 01:18 |
| FluxD | peter_: VLC for video amarok xmms audacious for mp3 players etc | 01:18 |
| daedra | thinman1189: so I can learn a bit about your catd | 01:18 |
| JimmyDee | Sharpie, working on it | 01:19 |
| johnficca | how do I fix it ? | 01:19 |
| Bogaurd | I get asked about it a fair bit LiMaO :-) | 01:19 |
| Sharpie | JimmyDee: oh, aight | 01:19 |
| usr13 | neopsyche: I don't know, right off hand. | 01:19 |
| mnuaimat | guys, is there anyway to upgrade from 7.04 to 7.10 using the live CD only, i don't have the alternate CD now | 01:19 |
| deaddreamer | i have installed gnome art, how do i install new themes? :S i don't see the option :S | 01:19 |
| shimizu | neopsyche, nice.. and why u need to create a user .. u can access it from php with root for mysql | 01:19 |
| daedra | !paste | 01:19 |
| ubotu | pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic) | 01:19 |
| Jordan_U_ | johnficca, Try switching to openDNS or disabling ipv6 in firefox | 01:19 |
| peter_ | FluxD: no discussion channel? | 01:19 |
| LiMaO | Bogaurd: that's something that claims attention ;) | 01:19 |
| Hellclan|Oracleg | JimmyDee, does not the cd when you boot from it have a rescure option | 01:19 |
| ckin2001 | tbuss - try this in your fstab? /dev/scd0 /media/cdrom0 iso9660,udf noauto,users,exec,ro 0 0 | 01:19 |
| JimmyDee | Hellclan|Oracleg, this is correct | 01:19 |
| johnficca | Jordan_U_: how do I switch to open dns? | 01:19 |
| shimizu | neopsyche, to manage MYSQL u can always use phpMyAdmin.. | 01:19 |
| usr13 | mnuaimat: YOu can upgrade online. | 01:19 |
| daedra | thinman1189: and paste the output of lspci into http://past.ubuntu-nl.org | 01:19 |
| FluxD | peter_: not really | 01:19 |
| shimizu | neopsyche, and do what every u want... create users.. and stuff | 01:20 |
| neopsyche | shimizu: where can i install / get php myadmin? | 01:20 |
| peter_ | And how to run all adobe software? | 01:20 |
| starkruzr | mnuaimat: what happens if you just add it as a source in your sources.list? | 01:20 |
| mnuaimat | usr13: i have a dial up at home, | 01:20 |
| Hellclan|Oracleg | Sharpie, your cd has a rescue option on it no idea what it really does | 01:20 |
| mnuaimat | starkruzr: i dunno, is that ok ? | 01:20 |
| JimmyDee | Sharpie, you might try a reinstall using logical volumes | 01:20 |
| shimizu | neopsyche, LAMP has it by default.. type phpmyadmin in browser.. it has to be there i suppose | 01:20 |
| johnficca | Jordan_U_: I got it going faster in firefox but my updates are still very slow | 01:20 |
| starkruzr | mnuaimat: at the very least it can't hurt you :) | 01:20 |
| usr13 | mnuaimat: Back up your personal files / data and re-install | 01:20 |
| Sharpie | JimmyDee: that's what i did last time | 01:20 |
| starkruzr | and yes, ALWAYS back up first. | 01:20 |
| mnuaimat | ok guys , thank you all | 01:20 |
| Sharpie | JimmyDee: i mean, reinstalled linux and formatted the partition | 01:20 |
| neopsyche | shimizu: it appears it diddnt have it... so i typed sudo apt-get install phpmyadmin... it appears to be installing it. | 01:21 |
| Sharpie | JimmyDee: but i'm not into formatting linux twice a day \: | 01:21 |
| tbuss | ckin2001: I have /dev/hda/ do I change hda to scd0? | 01:21 |
| JimmyDee | Sharpie, did you use primary partitions or logical? | 01:21 |
| Sharpie | JimmyDee: logical | 01:21 |
| starkruzr | hi guys. I have a SATA motherboard and two identical hard drives connected to it. they are both 160GB. I have the Ubuntu livecd installer disc. is there any way I can go from THIS situation to having RAID1 across the two drives? the installer does not appear to give an option for it. enabling RAID1 *after* installation would be fine too. | 01:21 |
| Sharpie | JimmyDee: i only have 1 primary partition and that's the windows one | 01:21 |
| JimmyDee | Sharpie, try one more time using primary | 01:21 |
| ckin2001 | tbuss, /dev/(dvd drive), whatever it is called | 01:21 |
| Flannel | starkruzr: You need to use the alternate CD to do RAID stuffs at install | 01:21 |
| linuxnewbie_41 | So does the slider indicate how much space the new partition will have? | 01:21 |
| chybeck | hi, got a problem, i did "sudo update-initramfs -u" cause i didn't have any splash screen , and now i can boot neither in rescue mode, i'm in commande line with argument (initramfs) . What can i do ? | 01:22 |
| starkruzr | Flannel: how about *after* install? | 01:22 |
| JimmyDee | Sharpie, if that dont work I'd say a boffo hdd | 01:22 |
| neopsyche | shimizu: like this.. http://localhost/phpmyadmin ??? | 01:22 |
| usr13 | starkruzr: I do not think raid is part of install process. | 01:22 |
| shimizu | neopsyche, does it appear when u type localhost ? | 01:22 |
| daedra | RAID arrays are bios level | 01:22 |
| Sharpie | JimmyDee: um, another idea: both the times it died (went read-only) i was listening to music stored on my ntfs drive, maybe it has something to do with it? | 01:22 |
| neopsyche | shimizu: not from that address no. | 01:22 |
| starkruzr | usr13: is there a way to do RAID after installation? | 01:22 |
| thinman1189 | phaedra , daedra : when i try to install ndiswrapper it says: media change: please insert the disc labeled 'ubuntu 7.19_Gutsy Gibbon_ - Release amd64 (20071017) in the drive '/cdrom' and press enter. i have two cd/dvd drives. the belkin cd is in one, the ubuntu cd is in the other. should i switch them? | 01:22 |
| shimizu | neopsyche, only apache2-default ? | 01:22 |
| JimmyDee | chybeck, rescue and update-grub | 01:22 |
| === drew- is now known as drew | ||
| dannyboy2087 | how can i install GTK 2.10 for ubuntu? | 01:22 |
| usr13 | starkruzr: hardware or software raid? | 01:22 |
| starkruzr | all I want is RAID1. nothing complicated. just mirroring. | 01:22 |
| starkruzr | software is fine. | 01:22 |
| neopsyche | shimizu: yes it would seem so. | 01:22 |
| neopsyche | shimizu: i also installed webmin | 01:23 |
| tbuss | ckin2001: trying manual... | 01:23 |
| Flannel | starkruzr: after install you can do whatever, like normal. I'm not too familiar the specifics though. | 01:23 |
| JimmyDee | booooo webmin | 01:23 |
| drew | how do i complete kill a wine process | 01:23 |
| chybeck | JimmyDee: how ? rescue don't work commande line too | 01:23 |
| wweasel | Question: Does the root partition need to be a Primary partition, or can it be an Extended? | 01:23 |
| ckin2001 | drew - kill -9 (pid of wine) | 01:23 |
| JimmyDee | rescue it to a shell | 01:23 |
| usr13 | starkruzr: Yes you can do it afterwards, but I do not use raid, you should talk to someone that does. | 01:23 |
| Sharpie | JimmyDee: did u read the last msg? =o | 01:23 |
| phaedra | thinman1189, Yes, it's looking for the buntu cd to be in the first drive. | 01:23 |
| daedra | i don't know ndiswrapper, and i am unwilling to support it because its patchy and uses proprietary software to get the card working | 01:23 |
| chybeck | not common command line but with initramfs prefix | 01:23 |
| tbuss | ckin2001: same result as previous | 01:24 |
| starkruzr | okay. :) Is there anyone here who uses RAID1 and got it working *after* they installed? | 01:24 |
| chybeck | can u detail JimmyDee plz ? | 01:24 |
| JimmyDee | Sharpie, yes I did, I dont think that should have fried your linux partition but hey | 01:24 |
| neopsyche | shimizu: thats the only file i see | 01:24 |
| drew | ckin2001, "-kill -9 (pid of wine)" ? | 01:24 |
| neopsyche | shimizu: that was there when the default install was done | 01:24 |
| neopsyche | shimizu: what does that mean? | 01:24 |
| JimmyDee | chybeck, boot with the installer disk, select rescue broken system, then open a shell when it asks and type update-grub | 01:24 |
| Sharpie | JimmyDee: so about primary partitions: only the root one or the swap as well? | 01:24 |
| neopsyche | shimizu: if i have apache 2 default only?> | 01:24 |
| shimizu | i just installed it neopsyche and has the same.. but when i had 7.04 it was configured automatically | 01:24 |
| chybeck | ok i try :) | 01:24 |
| wweasel | Guys...can I install Ubuntu with the root partition as a logical partition, not primary? | 01:25 |
| shimizu | neopsyche, gonna check where it placed | 01:25 |
| JimmyDee | Sharpie, wise users always make a / and a /home partition | 01:25 |
| neopsyche | shimizu: hmm... i am using 7.04 | 01:25 |
| shimizu | neopsyche, that sux then | 01:25 |
| Jordan_U_ | wweasel, I don't see why not | 01:25 |
| johnficca | how do I switch to opendns? | 01:25 |
| Sharpie | JimmyDee: that didn't answer the question =o | 01:25 |
| rsfriends | i did install gdesklets, and use toolbar, but i have seen some place that toolbar get more animation, but how, | 01:25 |
| Jordan_U_ | johnficca, http://www.opendns.com/ | 01:25 |
| JimmyDee | Sharpie, yes both, or all 3 if you like | 01:25 |
| JimmyDee | Sharpie, you get 4 | 01:26 |
| neopsyche | Is there a program for mirroring apache sites? | 01:26 |
| Sharpie | JimmyDee: er, can you do it in the linux partition manager? | 01:26 |
| usr13 | Sharpie: It really doesn't matter, just make partitions that you need. | 01:26 |
| Sharpie | JimmyDee: like, during the installation | 01:26 |
| JimmyDee | Sharpie, if you can get that far | 01:26 |
| kairu0 | i am trying to disable my onboard sound card, but i have no options in the BIOS for it (Vaio... *sigh*). How can I stop linux from loading it? | 01:26 |
| Jordan_U_ | johnficca, Please tell me if switching to openDNS helps for you | 01:26 |
| JimmyDee | Sharpie, yes yes you can | 01:26 |
| Sharpie | JimmyDee: i can boot from live cd | 01:26 |
| thinman1189 | phaedra : ok i did it then retried and this time it said: forcing parameter MapRegisters from 256 to 64 | 01:26 |
| yurimxpxman | if I install the 64 bit version, will I have to do anything special to run 32 bit binaries? | 01:26 |
| wweasel | Jordan_U_: Great! One more question...I have feisty installed right now. I am installing Gutsy on a separate partition. Of course, there should be only one /boot. How do I sort that out? | 01:26 |
| JimmyDee | Sharpie, use manual partition option | 01:26 |
| Sharpie | JimmyDee: yeah i did that last time as well, only that i partitioned my drive from windows | 01:27 |
| starkruzr | hm | 01:27 |
| neopsyche | shimizu: so.. what is the solution? | 01:27 |
| JimmyDee | Sharpie, OOOH, yeah partition your system using linux man | 01:27 |
| shimizu | neopsyche, sudo ln -s /usr/share/phpmyadmin/ /var/www/phpmyadmin | 01:27 |
| Sharpie | JimmyDee: last time i installed linux (like a year ago) i partitioned my ntfs partition with linux and it fucked up my partition table | 01:27 |
| starkruzr | the wiki isn't clear but it looks like MOST of the time RAIDing is done *after* the installation | 01:27 |
| phaedra | thinman1189, Sorry, but I don't know what that means. | 01:27 |
| neopsyche | shimizu: what does that do? | 01:27 |
| starkruzr | which is good for me because I need to get this machine up and running now :) | 01:27 |
| Sharpie | JimmyDee: this time i used paragon partition manager | 01:27 |
| kahrytan | Anyone know how to change double-click titlebar from maximize to shade in Metacity/GTK? | 01:27 |
| Jordan_U_ | wweasel, You don't need only one /boot, I had two distros installed with just two / partitions and a /home partition | 01:27 |
| phaedra | thinman1189, I'm not running the 64 bit version yet. | 01:27 |
| shimizu | neopsyche, link phpmyadmin to /var/www so u can see it | 01:28 |
| JimmyDee | Sharpie, no no, partition up the windows partition, then leave open space, then run ubuntu, and partition the rest, then grub will come along and build a menu sweet as chocolate | 01:28 |
| rsfriends | i did install gdesklets, and use toolbar, but i have seen some place that toolbar get more animation, but how do i get more animation | 01:28 |
| Jordan_U_ | wweasel, With /boot being part of the / partition of course | 01:28 |
| neopsyche | oh | 01:28 |
| Selanit | I've compiled a driver for my rt61 based wifi card. When I try to modprobe rt61, I get an error saying "rt61.ko: Invalid module format". How can I fix this? | 01:28 |
| kahrytan | Anyone know how to change double-click titlebar from maximize to shade in Metacity/GTK? | 01:28 |
| Sharpie | JimmyDee: i don't really think it matters, i formatted the partitions during the installation (and the shitty grub came along too) | 01:28 |
| neopsyche | shimizu: so it will take my 'sudo apt-getted' stuff and 'shortcut' to it .. ? | 01:28 |
| usr13 | Sharpie: You don't partition an existing partition, you only shrink or exapnd one, make new ones, etc. In other words, you can use a non-destructive partition manager to shrink existing partitions in order to make room for new ones. | 01:29 |
| wweasel | Jordan_U_: Right. But each / partition has its own /boot? Which one is the one you edit to configure grub :P | 01:29 |
| shimizu | neopsyche, something like this =) | 01:29 |
| neopsyche | lol | 01:29 |
| JimmyDee | Sharpie, I'm not a big fan of third party partitioners, i.e. partition magic, paragon, etc | 01:29 |

| thinman1189 | ok phaedra, thanks anyway | 01:29 |
| kahrytan | Can someone help me out? | 01:29 |
| wweasel | Jordan_U_: I'm probably demonstrating my lack of understanding for how /boot works. My apologies. | 01:29 |
| Sharpie | JimmyDee: i'm not a big fan of partitioners who fucked up my partition table, i.e ubuntu partitioner | 01:29 |
| wweasel | !question | kahrytan: | 01:30 |
| ubotu | kahrytan:: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :) | 01:30 |
| usr13 | Sharpie: And back up any data you don't wat to loose. | 01:30 |
| phaedra | thinman1189, np... Sorry... | 01:30 |
| neopsyche | shimizu: oh.. i noticed ... when i apt-get installed phpmyadmin.. i was in: andrew@videoserver1:/var/www$ sudo apt-get install phpmyadmin | 01:30 |
| stuporglue | I've got a firewire TV capture card. Anyone know how I can watch live TV with it? I don't want to do dvgrab, because I don't want to save it | 01:30 |
| kahrytan | wweasel, dont do that again. | 01:30 |
| JimmyDee | Sharpie, I'm the first to say dont partition ntfs partitions with ubuntu | 01:30 |
| ugruntu | sorry kahrytan i dont use that no idea | 01:30 |
| thinman1189 | daedra: my desktop is not connected to the internet, i'm currently on a laptop. | 01:30 |

| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about 64 bit - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 01:30 |
| neopsyche | shimizu: does this mean it will install to that directory you mentioned anyway? | 01:30 |
| Geekomancer1 | Hello. I'm curious, I used to use CrossOver last time I used Linux, and now that I'm coming back, I don't want to pay the fees :) Does anyone know if I could get Wine to run City of Heroes like Crossover did? | 01:30 |

| Selanit | !@%@# | 01:30 |
| wweasel | kahrytan: Didn't intend to. Once should be enough. | 01:30 |
| Selanit | How do I downgrade to Feisty? | 01:30 |
| Sharpie | JimmyDee: so now you want me do delete the ext and swap with the ubuntu installation and repartition the free space as primary? | 01:30 |
| neopsyche | hehehe | 01:31 |
| neopsyche | selanit.. and so it begins | 01:31 |
| Jordan_U_ | !downgrade | Selanit | 01:31 |
| ubotu | Selanit: Attempting to downgrade to an older Ubuntu version is explicitly not supported, and may break your system. | 01:31 |
| kahrytan | wweasel, I am aware of it though. it was useless abuse of bot. | 01:31 |
| JimmyDee | Sharpie, heres my method, install windows, leave space in the blue screen partitioner of windows for your linux drive, then install the ubuntu disk, using the rest of the space for / and /home and swap partitions | 01:31 |
| shimizu | neopsyche, it depend on how deb package was configured.. installation directories depend on people who made a package.. | 01:31 |
| deaddreamer | anyone know how to use nuovext themes? | 01:31 |
| Selanit | My system is already broken; I have nothing to lose | 01:31 |
| starkruzr | why would you want to downgrade to Feisty? | 01:31 |
| Sharpie | JimmyDee: too late, not touching windows =o | 01:31 |
| neopsyche | shimizu: using the universe | 01:31 |
| chybeck | JimmyDee: <JimmyDee> chybeck, boot with the installer disk <- what did u mean ? if i boot with cd i'm with livecd , and without rescue doesn't work | 01:31 |
| Jordan_U_ | Selanit, It won't get fixed by trying to downgrade to Feisty, believe me | 01:31 |
| ztomic | Geekomancer1: http://winehq.org/site/irc | 01:31 |
| Jordan_U_ | Selanit, In what way is it broken? | 01:31 |
| shimizu | Selanit, insert 7.04 and install fresh one <3 | 01:31 |
| kahrytan | Anyone know how to change double-click titlebar from maximize to shade in Metacity/GTK? | 01:31 |
| Sharpie | JimmyDee: but damn, windows spoiled me. i'm sitting while it's booting and thinking like "hmm....didn't ubuntu boot faster than this?" | 01:32 |
| dannyboy2087 | how can i get gtk 2.10 for ubuntu ? | 01:32 |
| Selanit | Because I've been trying for FOUR DAYS to get my fscking wifi card to work. It worked FINE in fesity, but not in gutsy. | 01:32 |
| JimmyDee | Sharpie, then I dont know man | 01:32 |
| neopsyche | shimizu: hmm... repositories vs supositories. Correct spelling is important hey :-) | 01:32 |
| smmagic | Selanit: Format and install :d | 01:32 |
| Geekomancer1 | Thanks! | 01:32 |
| dannyboy2087 | how can i get gtk 2.10 for feisty ? | 01:32 |
| wweasel | kahrytan: Get off your high horse. That's what the bot is here for. I don't care if you're aware of the fact that you shouldn't ask to ask a question, you did, I ask the bot to inform you. I can't read your mind. Now just ask your question and stop complaining. | 01:32 |
| Selanit | smagic: I may have to do that | 01:32 |
| ugruntu | i love feisty | 01:32 |
| ztomic | np | 01:32 |
| neopsyche | shimizu: especially when it comes to installation. | 01:32 |
| neopsyche | :-) | 01:32 |
| neopsyche | :-D | 01:32 |
| yurimxpxman | if I install the 64 bit version, will I have to do anything special to run 32 bit binaries? | 01:32 |
| kahrytan | wweasel, I didnt ask to ask a question. duh | 01:32 |
| ugruntu | i think i'll switch to gutsy just after the next upgrade | 01:32 |
| genefitz | I have noticed that gutsy does boot a little slower than feisty did, But I notice it does have a couple advantages. | 01:32 |
| Jordan_U_ | yurimxpxman, Yes | 01:32 |
| wolflinuxguy | chello? | 01:32 |
| Sharpie | JimmyDee: i have an idea! you come here, i backup my windows on your drive and then reinstall everything =D | 01:32 |

| phishphan | dcc list | 01:33 |
| JimmyDee | Sharpie, we live in an internet world, I wouldnt need to come there to do that | 01:33 |
| shimizu | neopsyche, u'd better tell me did u get phpmyadmin with that command to show up in var/www | 01:33 |
| phishphan | clear | 01:33 |
| unikon | anyone have a preference between thoggen,k9copyand dvd::rip/ which is the easiest straight forward to use without creating a choppy screen | 01:33 |
| phishphan | exit | 01:33 |
| Sharpie | JimmyDee: heh, fedex me your drive then :P | 01:33 |
| ugruntu | kahrytan, fvwm all the way | 01:33 |
| Sharpie | JimmyDee: or UPS, your call :D | 01:33 |
| Jordan_U_ | kahrytan, System -> Preferences -> Windows | 01:33 |
| neopsyche | shimizu: yeah! .. hehe.. it has a lock on it??!!! | 01:33 |
| JimmyDee | Sharpie, try a clean install resizing the windoze partition | 01:34 |
| wolflinuxguy | hey, is anyone availible to help a lone linux noob? | 01:34 |
| wweasel | Jordan_U_: Sorry, I was wondering...you had two / partitions. Each one had a /boot folder, right? That doesn't fit with my understanding of GRUB. Which one did it read, which one's configuration files configured it? | 01:34 |
| shimizu | neopsyche, try to get into in from browser first.. don't look at stupid locks from nautilus hehe | 01:34 |
| Orizzle | Hi | 01:34 |
| kahrytan | Jordan_U, doh. I knew it was possible. just forgot how | 01:34 |
| neopsyche | Famous noobie phrase: can someone help install a suppository? | 01:34 |
| neopsyche | :-D | 01:34 |
| wolflinuxguy | not quite | 01:34 |
| wolflinuxguy | i want to know how to run oblivion using wine | 01:34 |
| Sharpie | JimmyDee: i don't ever touch my windows partition, i have a 250 gb drive: 50gb windows, 150gb D: partition, 30gb left for linux | 01:34 |
| shimizu | wolflinuxguy, LOL | 01:34 |
| ztomic | unikon: choppy? you mean choppy menus? | 01:34 |
| usr13 | Sharpie: Why don't you just add a second HD? (To use for Ubuntu) | 01:34 |
| wolflinuxguy | anyone have an idea how to help me out? | 01:35 |
| Sharpie | usr13: i would, if it were free | 01:35 |
| Jordan_U_ | wweasel, I belive that it used the menu.lst from mysecond install... but then again now that I think of it I am not sure :) | 01:35 |
| unikon | meaning jumpy screen that freezes and out of sync | 01:35 |
| shimizu | wolflinuxguy, dude is ur pc like quadcore u have 6 gb ram and SLI top nvidia card ? | 01:35 |
| JimmyDee | Sharpie, then partition all 3 linux partitions primary and pray to the computing gods | 01:35 |
| tomlarkin | does anyone know how to get the little black arrow off of the main menu icon? | 01:35 |
| neopsyche | shimizu: seems to work | 01:35 |
| Sharpie | JimmyDee: richard stallman? :P | 01:35 |
| usr13 | Sharpie: If you have 30g, that should be enough to user for Ubuntu install. What is the problem? | 01:35 |
| wolflinuxguy | no, but it runs quite well with vista | 01:35 |
| wweasel | Jordan_U_: Alright, well...here goes nothing :) Thanks for the help | 01:35 |
| wolflinuxguy | with the same hardware | 01:35 |
| shimizu | wolflinuxguy, then use vista for it.. under wine it will be slow as hell. | 01:36 |
| wolflinuxguy | why is that? | 01:36 |
| niuq | how could i upgrade to ubuntu 7.10 if my update-manager doesn't show it? | 01:36 |
| shimizu | wolflinuxguy, u need at least CEDEGA not wine to run such game | 01:36 |
| Sharpie | usr13: please, don't join in the middle without knowing the topic =[. the problem has nothing to do with installing | 01:36 |
| rsfriends | how can i install new icon ? | 01:36 |
| JimmyDee | Sharpie, we all have our idols | 01:36 |
| wolflinuxguy | several people have told me that it they can and it runs fine | 01:36 |
| neopsyche | shimizu: ;-D | 01:36 |
| wolflinuxguy | the only problem is they know what there doing and arent total linux noobs | 01:36 |
| wolflinuxguy | like me | 01:36 |
| usr13 | Sharpie: The problem is with partitioning? | 01:36 |
| Sharpie | JimmyDee: i actually have no idea what GNU is, it's meaning is so obscure | 01:36 |
| chybeck | JimmyDee: -> /bin/sh: update-grub: not found | 01:36 |
| Sharpie | usr13: no, the problem is with linux dying on me | 01:36 |
| genefitz | rsfriends: right click, create launcher | 01:37 |
| wweasel | wolflinuxguy: Have you checked the Wine AppDB? http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iAppId=3150 | 01:37 |
| ztomic | wolflinuxguy: did you catch that link I shot?... http://winehq.org/site/irc | 01:37 |
| JimmyDee | oh fodder what is it grub-update? | 01:37 |
| shimizu | wolflinuxguy, it's no use to do this if u have vista.. it runs 50% slower than under windows with directx last drives and many other stuff | 01:37 |
| yurimxpxman | gnash works natively in 64 bit, correct? | 01:37 |
| rsfriends | i have install new icon, but how to install? | 01:37 |
| shimizu | wolflinuxguy, WINE is good for notepad and easy applications like this.. | 01:37 |
| Jordan_U_ | yurimxpxman, Yes | 01:37 |
| usr13 | Sharpie: How did it "die"? | 01:37 |
| mneptok | Notepad?! | 01:37 |
| JimmyDee | chybeck, grub-update sorry my man | 01:37 |
| mneptok | why would anyone use Notepad? | 01:37 |
| rsfriends | i have download a new icon, but how to use it?, sry did write wrong, my bad | 01:37 |
| Sharpie | usr13: cancer | 01:37 |
| Jordan_U_ | yurimxpxman, I can't think of anything open source that doesn't :) | 01:37 |
| genefitz | rsfriends: what are you trying to create a launcher for? | 01:38 |
| gribouille | can someone help me with a problem about locales ? | 01:38 |
| JimmyDee | cancer, brain, brain cancer..... | 01:38 |
| Sharpie | usr13: well, no, it just turned read-only and then when i reset x server it gave a warning that the x serv couldn't be started | 01:38 |
| thinman1189 | phaedra : just out of curiosity, does it matter what router i use or if i'm using a repeater? | 01:38 |
| ztomic | I hear people doggin' Wine | 01:38 |
| wweasel | shimizu: You underestimate Wine. It's good for far more than Notepad and Winesweeper. | 01:38 |
| wolflinuxguy | why the hell would someone devote an entire webpage for running oblivion under wine then??? | 01:38 |
| Sharpie | usr13: and it can't be booted, and this is the 2nd time today it happened. first time i reinstalled | 01:38 |
| daedra | i must admit the best I can achieve through wine is Unreal Tournament (Original) | 01:38 |
| ztomic | why you guys doggin' wine? | 01:38 |
| chybeck | JimmyDee: same thing, grub-update isn't in the "build-in commands" allowed | 01:38 |
| dannyboy2087 | how can i install a theme? | 01:38 |
| daedra | and that's patchy | 01:38 |
| mneptok | Jordan_U_: Java plugin | 01:38 |
| wolflinuxguy | http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Oblivion:Linux | 01:38 |
| neopsyche | shimizu: hmm... how do i make new user in myphpadmin? | 01:38 |
| rsfriends | i am not trying to creating a luncher, i did download new icon , but how to use it, ( new icon theme) | 01:38 |
| shimizu | wweasel, i get wc3 TFT running on wine.. but if it comes for games.. there is cedega, wich much faster for graphical applications .. heh | 01:38 |
| neopsyche | shimizu: it doesnt want to let me install tables to db using root + defualt paswd? | 01:39 |
| usr13 | Sharpie: What filesystem was on the partition that became read only? | 01:39 |
| genefitz | rsfriends, okay, hold on.. | 01:39 |
| rsfriends | ok | 01:39 |
| Sharpie | usr13: it was the root, ext3 | 01:39 |
| shimizu | wweasel, anyway i don't understand people who trying to run such games on ubuntu.. why do u need ubuntu.. for wine rofl | 01:39 |
| JimmyDee | chybeck, did you run your shell in the installer or the partition? | 01:39 |
| sushiluvr | ugh the 2008 scion xb is so hot | 01:39 |
| wweasel | wolflinuxguy: shimizu is right in the sense that it *will* run slower in Linux. Which isn't to say you shouldn't try, or that it will be unusable. It will simply be slower. But please, try away | 01:39 |
| neopsyche | shimizu: what games? | 01:39 |
| chybeck | dunno what's that ^ | 01:39 |
| === sushiluvr is now known as unagi | ||
| genefitz | rsfriends: try the instructions here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=106607 | 01:40 |
| wweasel | shimizu: Well, I think it's simply a matter of preference. It's nice being able to abandon Windows entirely. It's easier for me because I don't game | 01:40 |
| speeddemon8803 | Wine is good for small windows applications that really dont need to be installed, but for games like oblivion...in my opinion..I see no point. lol | 01:40 |
| wolflinuxguy | well the probem is i dont know how to get it working in the first place | 01:40 |
| Jordan_U_ | mneptok, Isn't gij 64 bit compatible? ( I don't count suns Java as Open Source yet :) | 01:40 |
| JimmyDee | chybeck, there were 2 options run a shell in the installer and run in the partition (not sure of the verbiage) | 01:40 |
| rsfriends | thx genefitz | 01:40 |
| wweasel | wolflinuxguy: http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iAppId=3150 - I think this is the page you need. | 01:40 |
| genefitz | rsfriends: no problem :-) | 01:40 |
| JimmyDee | chybeck, you need to run the shell in the partition | 01:40 |
| rsfriends | ;) | 01:40 |
| shimizu | wweasel, so if u don't game don't suggest people to spent hours setting up just a sound for a game wich will run extremely slow | 01:40 |
| daedra | wolflinuxguy: have you tried installing oblivion in windows, and then running it through linux using wine? | 01:40 |
| gribouille | does anyone know about locale support ? | 01:40 |
| shimizu | neopsyche, suggestiong to read about this in google :D | 01:40 |
| chybeck | yep but how ? ^^ | 01:41 |
| JimmyDee | wine does eve like a champ | 01:41 |
| daedra | that tends to give you the best idea of how it will run without optimizations | 01:41 |
| ztomic | wolflinuxguy: the best place would be a wine IRC channel. | 01:41 |
| JimmyDee | and its no SMALL windows app | 01:41 |
| speeddemon8803 | Exactly my point. | 01:41 |
| usr13 | Sharpie: The OS is supposed to control mounting, [ro or rw]. | 01:41 |
| wweasel | shimizu: I respectfully disagree. I'm not here to enforce my opinions of what people should or should not do upon them. I'm here to help them do what they want to do. I let him know it will run slower. Now he is armed with knowledge. | 01:41 |
| shimizu | wolflinuxguy, well if u want to have fun with it.. i think there is people who made it already u can just google it and im sure u will find step by step set up for oblivion | 01:41 |
| shimizu | wweasel, :) | 01:41 |
| wolflinuxguy | hmmm it appears thatthese were all tested with very early version of my distro | 01:42 |
| JimmyDee | wolflinuxguy, try winehq.org in their appdb | 01:42 |
| usr13 | Sharpie: You must have a problem with the HD. (hardware problem) | 01:42 |
| wolflinuxguy | well i did in the wiki but it doesnt adress the problem that im having | 01:42 |
| deaddreamer | how do i install cursors | 01:42 |
| deaddreamer | ?? | 01:42 |
| Hellclan|Oracleg | JimmyDee, know any erros for samba that include cli_rpc_pipe_open | 01:42 |
| linuxnewbie_41 | So does the slider in the installer indicate how much space the new partition will have? | 01:42 |
| wweasel | wolflinuxguy: Have you tried the website that I linked you to? http://wiki.winehq.org/OblivionHowTo | 01:42 |
| Sharpie | usr13: checked it with WD diagnostics, it's fine | 01:42 |
| ztomic | wolflinuxguy: http://appdb.winehq.org/ | 01:42 |
| shimizu | wolflinuxguy, well as i said before if u planning on gaming with wine u need to install cedega.. the only problem it's not free.. but it handle games much better than wine. | 01:42 |
| JimmyDee | usr13, fsck already blew chunks all over when he tried to run it, I say hardware malfunction too | 01:43 |
| usr13 | Sharpie: Use the live cd, go to console mode and mount one of the partitions ro and then try to remount rw | 01:43 |
| ztomic | why is wolflinuxguy still here? | 01:43 |
| wolflinuxguy | shh | 01:43 |
| JimmyDee | Hellclan|Oracleg, google that one, it seems specific enough | 01:43 |
| mEck0 | is there a keyboard shortcut for creating a new folder in Nautilus? | 01:43 |
| wolflinuxguy | ok ill give that a shot | 01:43 |
| Sharpie | usr13: but it can't boot anyway | 01:43 |
| wweasel | wolflinuxguy: Good luck | 01:43 |
| usr13 | Sharpie: fsck told you there were unrecoverable errors? | 01:43 |
| usr13 | Sharpie: Boot a LiveCD. | 01:44 |
| shimizu | mEck0, yeah.. shortcut is mkdir folder in terminal.. just get used to it | 01:44 |
| Sharpie | usr13: it told me there were errors..and failed | 01:44 |
| speeddemon8803 | Yes it does linuxnewbie. It indicates how much space of the partition will be set aside for the install. i.e. How much space is on the full drive, and how much space you want to set aside for the linux partition...as in resizing it. | 01:44 |
| FoSsiL | anyone have issue connecting to amule servers?? | 01:44 |
| wweasel | Alright all, Gutsy time for me. Good luck with your issues. | 01:44 |
| Sharpie | usr13: and then when i run it manually it finishes, but stil can't boot | 01:44 |
| usr13 | Sharpie: Then you have a problem with the HD more than likely. | 01:44 |
| usr13 | Sharpie: What happens when you try to boot? | 01:44 |
| JimmyDee | Sharpie, second time it puked in the same hard drive space? its boffo | 01:44 |
| usr13 | Sharpie: At what point does it fail? | 01:44 |
| speeddemon8803 | be back in a bit everyone, I see I need more coffee for the night shift :) | 01:44 |
| linuxnewbie_41 | I jsut don't want to erase my Windows data. | 01:45 |
| wweasel | mEck0: The shortcut is Ctrl+Shift+N ...I think | 01:45 |
| mEck0 | shimizu, I know how to create a new folder via the terminal... | 01:45 |
| Sharpie | usr13: it reaches about a 1/4 of the load bar and then goes to a dos screen | 01:45 |
| wolflinuxguy | what do i do wit hthat "hackish patch" thing? | 01:45 |
| usr13 | Sharpie: At the "dos" screen, are you able to login? | 01:45 |
| Zarigis | Does anyone know how to disable the headphone jack causing the internal speaker to mute? My headphone jack is busted and thinks its always plugged in. | 01:45 |
| mEck0 | wweasel, yeah, Ctrl+Shift+N was the right, thx | 01:45 |
| speeddemon8803 | Sharpie: Dos, as in "terminal"? | 01:45 |
| wweasel | shimizu: Your attitude really sucks, and probably helps to turn people off of Linux. Why should they feel comfortable asking questions just to get berated? | 01:45 |
| JimmyDee | !dos | 01:45 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about dos - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 01:45 |
| Sharpie | speeddemon8803: nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. Dos as in super mario NT! =D | 01:46 |
| ztomic | Windows is great for games because of hardware. DOS is better for games than windows but Windows is the happy medium. Wine for games is just frivilous but more power to those that can get them working. | 01:46 |
| speeddemon8803 | lol :) | 01:46 |
| Sharpie | usr13: anyway, it runs a fcsk and fails | 01:46 |
| wweasel | shimizu: I know you know what you're doing...but still...you could be a bit more respectful with them. | 01:46 |
| mEck0 | wweasel, thx! | 01:46 |
| twoshadetod | I have a file server setup sharing files with Samba, works GREAT. Only thing is one of the folders is porn. My 10 year old daughter just came to live with me and I don't want her seeing it. If making an NFS share for the pron good enough to keep her out of it? | 01:46 |
| wweasel | mEck0: Np :) | 01:46 |
| Sharpie | usr13: and tells me to manually fsck, but that doesn't fix it | 01:46 |
| speeddemon8803 | Some users refer to terminal as dos, just making sure we were on the same page. | 01:46 |
| ckin2001 | twoshadetod, you can set permissions on samba shares | 01:46 |
| wweasel | twoshadetod: lol! that is one of the best questions i've heard on this channel | 01:46 |
| shimizu | wweasel, i think if people getting used to linux they should start with terminal as for last question it was a joke :) | 01:46 |
| wolflinuxguy | the thing gets halfway through installation and then i get a fun little error that says "feature transfer error" | 01:46 |
| twoshadetod | ckin2001, you can? i thought i couldnt | 01:46 |
| wolflinuxguy | then it closes out and nothing happens | 01:47 |
| ckin2001 | twoshadetod, i suck at it, but I know you can. lemme search a little | 01:47 |
| Zarigis | Anyone? Any thoughts on disabling headphone hack detection? | 01:47 |
| twoshadetod | ckin2001, will she still be able to get into the server for the other "folders"? | 01:47 |
| ztomic | speeddemon8803: DOS as in disk os. | 01:47 |
| twoshadetod | wweasel, hhaha thanks | 01:47 |
| usr13 | Sharpie: On the / partition? (The root filesystem?) | 01:47 |
| speeddemon8803 | I know what dos is. :) | 01:47 |
| twoshadetod | ztomic, DOS was the bomb bro | 01:47 |
| ckin2001 | twoshadetod, you can setup multiple shares and assign permissions to each on a per-share level | 01:47 |
| Hellclan|Oracleg | JimmyDee, stuff that is really technical i catch mention of rpc | 01:47 |
| Sharpie | usr13: yes | 01:47 |
| weasel | grrrr. | 01:47 |
| JimmyDee | twoshadetod, permission that Pron directory out | 01:47 |
| wweasel | 'later all. | 01:47 |
| usr13 | Sharpie: Actually, you probably only have 2, right? (swap and /?) | 01:47 |
| mindframe- | anyone here good with xfs? | 01:48 |
| deadlylife | How do I install and use Compiz? | 01:48 |
| usr13 | Sharpie: What size are they? | 01:48 |
| JimmyDee | Hellclan|Oracleg, sometimes it does get a bit geekish when playing with network file systems | 01:48 |
| ztomic | DOS is great for games because of direct hardware access. | 01:48 |
| thinman1189 | phaedra : just out of curiosity, does it matter what router i use or if i'm using a repeater? | 01:48 |
| shimizu | ztomic, it was in 1995 | 01:48 |
| Sharpie | usr13: / is about 30gb, swap is 2gb | 01:48 |
| speeddemon8803 | deadlylife:Do you have a nvidia video card? | 01:48 |
| JimmyDee | thinman1189, repeaters do not route, routers do repeat...next? | 01:48 |
| twoshadetod | JimmyDee, what should I do, just create a group on that box called pron and drag everyone but her iinto it? | 01:48 |
| ztomic | MAME games works great in DOS. | 01:48 |
| usr13 | Sharpie: If your filesystem is hosed badly, you will need to re-install. Don't see much else in the way of options for you. | 01:49 |
| ckin2001 | twoshadetod, in the smb.conf file, add the line "valid users = (your samba username)" and make sure that public = no | 01:49 |
| deadlylife | speeddemon8803, I don't know. | 01:49 |
| JimmyDee | twoshadetod, thats how I would do it | 01:49 |
| twoshadetod | ztomic, god they didn't even have mame when i used dos, we had the actual nintendo system lol | 01:49 |
| Sharpie | i already reinstalled today =[ | 01:49 |
| JimmyDee | twoshadetod, asides from naming the group pron | 01:49 |
| ConstyXIV | is there by chance any way to get system-wide mouse gestures? | 01:49 |
| speeddemon8803 | deadlylife:If you have an unsupported video card, and try to install it, be warned, things get ugly. | 01:49 |
| usr13 | Sharpie: You re-installed and still cannot boot? | 01:49 |
| twoshadetod | only thing that makes me mad is dos had nothing like "screen" | 01:49 |
| twoshadetod | and screen is fairly "old" | 01:49 |
| Sharpie | usr13: i reinstalled and after a couple of hours it happened again | 01:50 |
| twoshadetod | when i saw screen on nix i marveled | 01:50 |
| deadlylife | speeddemon8803, How can I know what card I have? | 01:50 |
| phaedra | thinman1189, No. Unless the card is working properly and you can't connect. | 01:50 |
| JimmyDee | usr13, his hdd is irretrievable borked | 01:50 |
| ztomic | twoshadetod: Advancemame has a livecd based on DOS. works great because of direct hardware access. | 01:50 |
| graelb | Hi there, Why would my TTY's be just black and unaccessable | 01:50 |
| ztomic | but I hate advancemame | 01:50 |
| usr13 | Sharpie: Is this a desktop or laptop? | 01:50 |
| wolflinuxguy | come on come on does anyone know what to do about oblivion? | 01:50 |
| Sharpie | usr13: it's a desklop | 01:50 |
| twoshadetod | ztomic, did you use dos back in the BBS days? | 01:50 |
| Johnson | yo did anyone upgrade to 7.10 from update manager? | 01:50 |
| Johnson | is that safe to do? | 01:50 |
| Sharpie | usr13: a floating desktop | 01:50 |
| thinman1189 | jimmydee : huh? | 01:50 |
| speeddemon8803 | deadly:There is a app in ubuntu that checks your hardware, im not sure of the name of it, anybody know? | 01:51 |
| JimmyDee | graelb, sounds silly but mine do that when you unplug them | 01:51 |
| twoshadetod | Johnson, i didn't but im sure they wouldn't mind another tester lol | 01:51 |
| usr13 | Sharpie: "floating"? | 01:51 |
| twoshadetod | speeddemon8803, i thought uname might do that | 01:51 |
| Sharpie | usr13: joke. desktop. | 01:51 |
| ckin2001 | Johnson, done it twice, worked fine | 01:51 |
| twoshadetod | speeddemon8803, not sure but i beleive uname -a ? | 01:51 |
| ztomic | twoshadetod: yeah i started working with PC back in 90 or so. | 01:51 |
| Johnson | alright | 01:51 |
| gluonman | Yo, I'm having difficulty partitioning my hdd. Right now I just have a root / and a swap /. I want to add an /opt and a /home and shrink my root / to 5GiB. Unfortunately, gparted wouldn't let me do this, so just decided to back up all of my files to my exthdd and just reinstall ubuntu entirely from the liveCD (which I'm booted into now). However, during the installation setup when it asked how I wanted to partition my hdd, I select | 01:51 |
| gluonman | ed manual it reported errors when I tried to shrink the root / to 5GiB. Then I didn't notice any option to create new partitions that I could mount on /opt and /home. Can anyone help me out? | 01:51 |
| usr13 | Sharpie: Is it a sata drive? | 01:51 |
| twoshadetod | ztomic, around when i did you prolly had a 2/386 by then | 01:51 |
| graelb | JimmyDee: wait, unplug them? you lost me. My virtual terminals are gone on the new nvidia drivers, nvidia-glx-new with the restricted driver manager | 01:51 |
| twoshadetod | lucky dog | 01:51 |
| Sharpie | usr13: yes | 01:51 |
| wolflinuxguy | pleeeaaase help me | 01:52 |
| elninja | is it dangerous to poop during a thunderstorm? | 01:52 |
| thinman1189 | phaedra well i dono what i did between the commands here and on the wiki but it says the driver is installed and i can't connect. on the wiki it says i need to set the channel myself. how? | 01:52 |
| ztomic | twoshadetod: but I hooked up to UT Tarus mainframe from school in 79. | 01:52 |
| speeddemon8803 | Wolf, what do you need assistance with? | 01:52 |
| deadlylife | speeddemon8803, How can I know what card I have? | 01:52 |
| JimmyDee | graelb, no, my tty's are black and unresponsive when I unplug them, could that be the issue? | 01:52 |
| kag | how can I find out what ports a program is using? | 01:52 |
| twoshadetod | ztomic, not familiar with those, only dos lol and bbs's man i used to love them | 01:52 |
| RancidLM | hello all, i have a laptop that i would like to use dual monitors when im at home.. is there a "profile" switcher for xorg that i can choose what xorg i would like to start with? | 01:52 |
| speeddemon8803 | im not exactly sure of what the command is in terminal..can someone else assist here? | 01:52 |
| JimmyDee | graelb, sorry we arent on the same page | 01:53 |
| ckin2001 | speeddemon8803, lspci? | 01:53 |
| twoshadetod | I remember I started screwing around and making the prompt color and (i am almost positive) a short animation. can that be done in nix? | 01:53 |
| graelb | JimmyDee: yeah, i don't know what you're talking about, though the typing things you use over the phone are also called tty's i think, yes? | 01:53 |
| JimmyDee | kag, sudo apt-get install nmap, then nmap -v -A myhostname | 01:53 |
| twoshadetod | i think you had to hit prompt off with a $E then the escape code but dont remember which was which | 01:53 |
| JimmyDee | graelb, yes | 01:53 |
| usr13 | Sharpie: You might check the bios for some switch that locks or unlocks the drive. (I understand that some of the newer PC's come with a function to "lock" the HD partitions. ALso, some companies will install software that "locks" a HD, (mostly on company issued laptops), and I understand that the function uses cmos swithcs to do the job. | 01:53 |
| bqmassey | grub's not working | 01:53 |
| speeddemon8803 | Can I ask that someone else assist deadly? I am so baffled with my linux commands that I need to study up. | 01:53 |
| eXeCuTeR | JimmyDee | 01:53 |
| bqmassey | throwing error 13 and error 15 | 01:54 |
| phaedra | thinman1189, You can use iwconfig for that. | 01:54 |
| Sharpie | usr13: lock? :\ | 01:54 |
| Sharpie | usr13: as in, make it read only? | 01:54 |
| graelb | JimmyDee: That was what you were talking about, yes? | 01:54 |
| ztomic | twoshadetod: my first PC was 386sx | 01:54 |
| Hellclan|Oracleg | JimmyDee, oo any idea why it thinks the host mahcine is at a 208.69 naddres ? | 01:54 |
| phaedra | thinman1189, man iwconfig will give you the command and params. | 01:54 |
| coldboot | Has anyone got VMWare Server working on Gutsy? | 01:54 |
| twoshadetod | ztomic, nice bro i had an sx also | 01:54 |
| wolflinuxguy | what the hell is a feature transfer error?!? | 01:54 |
| twoshadetod | wanted the DX version | 01:54 |
| twoshadetod | but my first was an XT 8088 | 01:54 |
| ztomic | sx=sux | 01:54 |
| ztomic | hehe | 01:54 |
| twoshadetod | yeah | 01:54 |
| twoshadetod | sx was the cheaper one | 01:54 |
| twoshadetod | er | 01:55 |
| twoshadetod | the cheapest | 01:55 |
| twoshadetod | actually | 01:55 |
| usr13 | Sharpie: I've already told you more than I know. But I had a friend that encountered a simular problem with his company issued laptop, but he convinced the {company] tec to "unlock" it for him. | 01:55 |
| JimmyDee | graelb, "the typing things you use over the phone arealso called tty's" my answer is yes, and when I unplug them they become black and unresponsive | 01:55 |
| kag | JimmyDee, thanks... what are the -v -A options for? | 01:55 |
| Sharpie | usr13: i assure you, nothing is locked =\ | 01:55 |
| wolflinuxguy | for fun | 01:55 |
| graelb | JimmyDee: yeah... well, that's to be expceted =P | 01:55 |
| ztomic | twoshadetod: remember having to upgrade cache as well as RAM... that sucked! | 01:55 |
| Sharpie | usr13: thanks for trying to help tho \= | 01:55 |
| wolflinuxguy | ummmmmmmmmm | 01:55 |
| wolflinuxguy | wHAT is a FEATURE transfer error? | 01:56 |
| c0Ld | wirchief1: you still there? ;x | 01:56 |
| speeddemon8803 | Ram and cache upgrade, *shakes in boots* | 01:56 |
| JimmyDee | Hellclan|Oracleg, ummm 208.69 hmmmm its dhcp'ing to someone elses dhcp box? | 01:56 |
| thinman1189 | phaedra it gave me a lot of info but i don't know what it means | 01:56 |
| pbx | What command can I give to aptitude (or apt-get) to tell me what packages I have installed and whether there are newer versions available? The equivalent of "portversion" on FreeBSD or "port installed" in Macports. | 01:56 |
| twoshadetod | ztomic, lol i never upgraded bro i had the xt untl the 386 was out | 01:56 |
| Sharpie | usr13: maybe it's cause ubuntu's anti-semitic? :\ | 01:56 |
| speeddemon8803 | !help | 01:56 |
| twoshadetod | ztomic, i do remember having to fuck with dipswitches when instaling a modem | 01:56 |
| ubotu | I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots | 01:56 |

| ugruntu | My sound card was working fine, then suddenly it died. rythmbox claimed it couldnt play because another application was using resources. Is there a process i can kill to resart sound? | 01:56 |
| chybeck | hi, got a problem, i did "sudo update-initramfs -u" cause i didn't have any splash screen , and now i can boot neither in rescue mode, i'm in commande line with argument (initramfs) . What can i do (i'm noob) | 01:56 |
| coldboot | Has anyone got VMWare working on Ubuntu Gutsy 7.10? | 01:56 |
| JimmyDee | !language > twoshadetod | 01:56 |
| elkbuntu | twoshadetod, watch your language please | 01:56 |
| usr13 | Sharpie: It very well could be that you've just hosed the filesystem up. It happens, but not very often. I have data that I've been shuffling from one drive to the next for years. I've been using ext2 and ext3 for over 10 years now and any data lose hase been due to either operator error or hardware failure only. | 01:57 |
| rsfriends | why cant i copy file to usr/share/icons | 01:57 |
| twoshadetod | ztomic, for setting, had like 4, i want to say all up ---- was comm 1 , --__ was 2, __-- was 3 and all down ____ was comm four | 01:57 |
| JimmyDee | rsfriends, permissions | 01:57 |
| Odd-rationale | rsfriends: Because you are not the owner of the file | 01:57 |
| twoshadetod | JimmyDee, sorry | 01:57 |
| cyberjames | rsfriends: superuser first | 01:57 |
| twoshadetod | elkbuntu, sorry | 01:57 |
| gluonman | I don't know if anybody noticed my above question, so I'll just repost it. | 01:57 |
| rsfriends | ok | 01:57 |
| gluonman | Yo, I'm having difficulty partitioning my hdd. Right now I just have a root / and a swap /. I want to add an /opt and a /home and shrink my root / to 5GiB. Unfortunately, gparted wouldn't let me do this, so just decided to back up all of my files to my exthdd and just reinstall ubuntu entirely from the liveCD (which I'm booted into now).

| Sharpie | usr13: hosed it up? like, ruined it? twice? in a couple of hours? | 01:57 |
| twoshadetod | ztomic, remember applying for private boards man? | 01:57 |
| pedro | hi | 01:58 |
| wolflinuxguy | nope | 01:58 |
| Joaoebordignon | Hi, I'm doing a reinstall on my ubuntu file server. And it's hanging in the "Installing the kernel - installing linux-server" for about 40 minutes now. Is it normal (it was almost 2 years since I did a server install)? | 01:58 |
| twoshadetod | ztomic, have that crazy application to prove you were elite? | 01:58 |
| ztomic | twoshadetod: when I was programming in high school, the modem was a handset that you placed in the cradle... can't remember what speed. | 01:58 |
| pbx | 110! | 01:58 |
| Odd-rationale | coldboot: I would use VirtualBox instead: http://www.virtualbox.org/ | 01:58 |
| twoshadetod | yeah i've seen those but that was before me | 01:58 |
| twoshadetod | i think that was a 300 baud | 01:58 |
| pbx | Fancy | 01:58 |
| rsfriends | how can i use sueruse | 01:58 |
| twoshadetod | my first was a 1200 | 01:58 |
| rsfriends | superuser | 01:58 |
| wolflinuxguy | come on man... feature transfer error man... | 01:58 |
| JimmyDee | Sharpie, I'd bet your hdd is delta sierra | 01:58 |
| twoshadetod | i think 300's wre popular on amiga's also using kermit probablyy before xmodem but not sure again, before me | 01:58 |
| usr13 | Sharpie: I really have no idea, would have to see the drive - mount it (or try to mount it) and look at it and see if there are any clues as to what happened | 01:58 |
| pedro | what is a good anti virus for linux? | 01:59 |
| PriceChild | !sudo | rsfriends | 01:59 |
| ubotu | rsfriends: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information. | 01:59 |
| Sharpie | JimmyDee: wtf is delta sierra? | 01:59 |
| ztomic | ahh! the good ole days. | 01:59 |
| JimmyDee | Dog **** | 01:59 |
| usr13 | Sharpie: You can not even to recovery mode? | 01:59 |
| bqmassey | what does hd(0,3) refer to? first drive, fourth partition? | 01:59 |
| pbx | pedro, most people use something called... "Linux" :) | 01:59 |
| rsfriends | thx | 01:59 |
| JimmyDee | bqmassey, you are correct sir | 01:59 |
| wolflinuxguy | come on man.. oblivion with wine man... | 01:59 |
| pedro | yes but i ve a problem | 01:59 |
| Sharpie | usr13: it starts booting recovery mode and fails and then does a fcsk | 01:59 |
| pedro | i use windows as host and linux in vmware | 01:59 |
| JimmyDee | pedro, you wouldnt be here if you dint have a problem, shoot it | 02:00 |
| wolflinuxguy | how the hell do i get .msi's to run with wine??????? | 02:00 |
| pedro | and i think windows has virus | 02:00 |
| wolflinuxguy | i know someone knows how... | 02:00 |
| Selanit | Does anyone know what "Invalid module format" means when inserting a freshly compiled module? | 02:00 |
| JimmyDee | wolflinuxguy, wine msiexec filename.msi | 02:00 |
| kag | JimmyDee, from what I understand, nmap scans for my open ports (like a running server).. however I'm trying to find out which port(s) my BitTorrent client is using | 02:00 |
| wolflinuxguy | ok ill trust you... | 02:00 |
| wolflinuxguy | just this once tho | 02:00 |
| twoshadetod | kag netstat maybe? wireshark if not for sure | 02:00 |
| pedro | and want to run a scan withe linux the windows | 02:00 |
| pedro | how can i do this? | 02:00 |
| bqmassey | JimmyDee: ok. so is it possible that grub isn't working because menu.lst has the ubuntu root at 'hd(0,3)' when ubuntu is actually on the second partition? | 02:01 |
| pedro | i use windows as host and linux in vmware | 02:01 |
| JimmyDee | bqmassey, that would cause a large discrepancy, yes | 02:01 |
| twoshadetod | pedro, for virus maybe clamav, i dont use AV but grab rkhunter and chkrootkit also | 02:01 |
| pedro | and want to run a scan withe linux the windows | 02:01 |
| zhaosy | exit | 02:01 |
| usr13 | Sharpie: You could boot a liveCD and try and mount the partition in question and see if you can read the data or not. That might give you a clue as to what happened. | 02:01 |
| twoshadetod | pedro, ahhh that is an interesting question, i might do that to my girls XP box that has virii | 02:01 |
| pedro | i already installed clamav but i dont know how to use | 02:01 |
| coldboot | Odd-rationale: Is it free? | 02:01 |
| phaedra | thinman1189, You set the channel with the channel parameter.... | 02:01 |
| zhaosy | reboot | 02:01 |
| zhaosy | hello | 02:01 |
| coldboot | Odd-rationale: Nobody uses it in the industry. | 02:01 |
| Sharpie | usr13: wish i knew how to do that =[ | 02:02 |
| coldboot | Odd-rationale: It's mostly between Parallels and VMWare | 02:02 |
| Odd-rationale | coldboot: Yes, it's free. | 02:02 |
| bqmassey | JimmyDee: ok. so my first partition is the swap and my second is the root.. so i need to change it to 'hd(0,1)' correct? | 02:02 |
| wolflinuxguy | jimmy dee you liar... | 02:02 |
| wolflinuxguy | nothing happened! | 02:02 |
| wolflinuxguy | am i supposed to put the msi file in a super special secret location or something??? | 02:02 |
| usr13 | Sharpie: Do you have the Ubuntu install CD? If so, you can use that. | 02:02 |
| JimmyDee | bqmassey, then its (hd1,0) | 02:02 |
| ztomic | twoshadetod, pedro: so boot to windows, run linux virus scan? sounds troublesome. | 02:02 |
| Sharpie | usr13: i have the livecd =\ | 02:02 |
| Odd-rationale | coldboot: Try it! You might like it better. | 02:02 |
| JimmyDee | errrr youre right | 02:02 |
| Sharpie | usr13: i installed it like 4 hours ago | 02:03 |
| JimmyDee | bqmassey, err (hd0,1) | 02:03 |
| pedro | but how can i use clamav | 02:03 |
| * rredd4 says hi to JimmyDee | 02:03 | |
| JimmyDee | !clamav | 02:03 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about clamav - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 02:03 |
| pedro | i already had instaled the clamav and clamav-fresh | 02:03 |
| JimmyDee | pedro, info clamav | 02:03 |
| pedro | how to use | 02:03 |
| pedro | ? | 02:03 |
| mckensey | how i can come back to the 7.04 to 7.10? somebody helpme please | 02:03 |
| wolflinuxguy | hmmm???? | 02:03 |
| JimmyDee | !downgrade | 02:04 |
| ubotu | Attempting to downgrade to an older Ubuntu version is explicitly not supported, and may break your system. | 02:04 |
| ztomic | pedro: boot a livecd with clam but it's gonna mess up your windows partition. better to find the virus and fix from windows. | 02:04 |
| wolflinuxguy | so can you NOT install msi's then????? | 02:04 |
| wolflinuxguy | hmm | 02:04 |
| pedro | but i think windows has a trojan | 02:04 |
| === Dana1 is now known as DanaG | ||
| DanaG | Oh hey, here's something to do if it's the partition table that's corrupted: | 02:04 |
| DanaG | TestDisk. | 02:04 |
| speeddemon8803 | Please do not try to downgrade, as you could seriously mess up your computer and ultimately corrupt ubuntu beyond all recovery. | 02:04 |
| gribouille | I have installed the locale fr_FR@euro, and when I do LANG=fr_FR@euro perl -Mlocale -e 'print uc chr 189', I get the wrong character ! | 02:05 |
| usr13 | Sharpie: Boot the CD and then look at the partitions fdisl -l Look to see if they are already mounted e.g. mount If it is not already mounted, try mouting, e.g. sudo mkdir /mnt/hda4 ; sudo mount /dev/hda4 /mnt/hda4 ; ls /mnt/hda4 | 02:05 |
| rredd4 | pedro use AVG in windows, its free | 02:05 |
| thinman1189 | phaedra : the channel is set correctly. i typed lspci -v | less and for the wireless card it said a bunch of stuff but Belkin Unknown Device 700c and Capabilities <access denied> seem to be a problem. | 02:05 |
| DanaG | It won't fix the file system itself, though. It's good for things like deleted, but not formatted, partitions. | 02:05 |
| pedro | i already used | 02:05 |
| ztomic | pedro: find a fix and follow the instructions. then get a good AV. | 02:05 |
| pedro | i ve that anti virus | 02:05 |
| pedro | and don t detected anything | 02:05 |
| Sharpie | usr13: um. | 02:05 |
| pedro | but when i do crl alt del | 02:05 |
| VilasBoas | hy i need help with my wireless can anyone please help me? | 02:05 |
| JimmyDee | wolflinuxguy, I installed steam via .msi file, it works | 02:06 |

| Atomic_UE | fxfitz, and you'd probably find more people who know about patching wifi drivers in #aircrack-ng too | 03:22 |
| LiMaO | tiago: you may keep both images, one for vmware and one for virtualbox | 03:23 |
| LiMaO | tiago: i'm not sure about that converter though, i myself never tried it | 03:23 |
| tiago | dystopianray: it says services.sh cant be copyed to the install location | 03:23 |
| kbrooks | i need info on virtualization, not on apps | 03:23 |
| fxfitz | Atomic_UE, Okay. Thanks! | 03:23 |
| dystopianray | tiago: did you run the installer as root? | 03:23 |
| tiago | LiMaO: i might have to try this virtualbox people keep speaking of | 03:23 |
| dystopianray | tiago: why not try installing the latest version instead of an old one? | 03:23 |
| LiMaO | tiago: well, it's great, i can assure you | 03:24 |

| usr13 | inversekinetix: I'm not even sure your CDROM is sata, it may be IDE. Have you looked inside to see? | 04:06 |
| desertc | Don't I have to set something in my /etc/modprobe.d/ ALSA configuration file to get the default sound card working? None of the SDL-sound applications work with sound, only GNOME applications do. | 04:06 |
| prak | does anyone have any suggestion of the problem of not being able to find pango shown in http://www.pastebin.ca/751168 even though i've installed the package? | 04:06 |
| Atomic_UE | curi0, if you only have gutsy repos enabled then it will only download from them | 04:06 |
| ebirtaid | did you click ok though? and have you asked in #compiz-fusion? | 04:06 |
| inversekinetix | usr13, i get info on all physical HDs, heads cylinders, sectors, file system etc etc | 04:06 |
| L3th4L | ebirtaid, ok? | 04:06 |
| L3th4L | ebirtaid, where is ok? | 04:06 |
| inversekinetix | usr13, its SATA on channel 3, I built it myself | 04:06 |
| ebirtaid | on emerald theme manager | 04:06 |
| L3th4L | i dont see ok! | 04:06 |
| L3th4L | only quit | 04:06 |
| Iceshadow | nickelado: try google, i promise its out there. search active directory, kerberos and linux, or even ubuntu to be more specific. | 04:06 |
| pavs | your momma so dumb she set her buffer length to a minimal octal instead of puging the cache | 04:07 |
| inversekinetix | usr13 all drives show up as SATA, whether IDE or not | 04:07 |
| DELTA9THC1 | nickelado maybe samba? | 04:07 |
| usr13 | inversekinetix: Show me. [via pastebin.ca] output of fdisk -l | 04:07 |
| ebirtaid | look I dont even use compiz you should type /join #compiz-fusion ask there kthx | 04:07 |
| curi0 | <Atomic_UE>I upgraded my kernel from Edgy to Gutsy and I just want to make sure SPM is just using the repositories in the sources.list | 04:07 |
| nickelado | :) | 04:07 |
| iamtravis | is there an environment variable that installer scripts check to override the default /usr/lib directory? | 04:07 |
| IdleOne | pavs: it's purge not puge | 04:07 |
| pavs | :) | 04:07 |
| nickelado | i followed every instruction said in 2 or 3 links that i found | 04:07 |
| nickelado | but still no luck | 04:07 |
| usr13 | I've never used sata drives yet. Can anyone tell me what device names sata uses? | 04:08 |
| Atomic_UE | curi0, it _will_ only use what's in sources.list | 04:08 |
| gluonman | Atomic_UE, wassup! | 04:08 |
| Atomic_UE | curi0, it doesn't get any info from anywhere else | 04:08 |
| LinuxInsid1 | sd | 04:08 |
| nickelado | i can get Kerberos ticket but still unable to join the domain | 04:08 |
| andre | I'm having an issue with compiz... I cannot put check marks on some of the options... like I can't turn on or off the 3d cube. | 04:08 |
| Atomic_UE | gluonman, ay | 04:08 |
| inversekinetix | usr13: http://pastebin.ca/751176 | 04:08 |
| Iceshadow | nickelado: you also have to do some work in the config files of samba. it's a multi-part issue | 04:08 |
| curi0 | Atomic_UE, that helps! | 04:08 |
| DELTA9THC1 | i've never used samba,sorry | 04:08 |
| strick | (Freeloader) Anybody uses that App. PLEASE say something | 04:08 |
| swmiller | L3th4L: come to private caht and I will try to help you | 04:08 |
| === rockets_ is now known as rockets | ||
| L3th4L | swmiller, i am in prvt u not answering me | 04:09 |
| L3th4L | swmiller join #hellou | 04:09 |
| L3th4L | so we can talk i lag in query | 04:09 |
| pavs | compiz is the best feature with no practical use in gutsy, I am so proud of it :) | 04:09 |
| curi0 | Atomic_UE, let me add the ubuntu repositories to my list. I'll be back buddy, thank you! | 04:09 |
| nickelado | i think its hopeless hehehehehe | 04:09 |
| DELTA9THC1 | lol | 04:09 |
| curi0 | Atomic_UE, the gutsy repos to my list *rephrase* | 04:09 |
| gluonman | Atomic_UE, hey, I am booted from the CD and I opened the ubuntu installation setup and selected to manually partition the hdd. For one thing, I didn't see any option to add new partitions to mount on /opt and on /home, and when I tried to shrink the root / to 5GiB it reported errors. | 04:09 |
| DELTA9THC1 | you'll fix it,sure! | 04:09 |
| John117_ | Are there ANY clear-cut simple instructions on how to install Kiba-Dock on gutsy? anywhere? anybody? | 04:09 |
| mahasamatman | #ubuntu-nebraska | 04:09 |
| Atomic_UE | curi0, the only time it would not download from a designated repo is if you downloaded a package that then goes and downloads something from somewhere else itself, such as the flash plugin i think | 04:10 |
| L3th4L | swmiller, i am replying join #hellou please!!!!!!!!! | 04:10 |
| John117_ | I don't know how to compile anything.. I'm not a programmer! Why can't you just INSTALL this stuff? | 04:10 |
| usr13 | inversekinetix: mkdir cdrom | 04:10 |
| ebirtaid | john: you can | 04:10 |
| ebirtaid | through synaptic | 04:10 |
| usr13 | inversekinetix: mount /dev/sdd cdrom | 04:10 |
| r00723r0 | anyone know why mplayer's eq gives me noise when i set it above normal value? | 04:10 |
| sparr | John117: becuse the people who wrote it spent their time making the program better, instead of making it easier for you to install. you install it once, and use it forever, so they get better return on their time investment | 04:11 |
| usr13 | inversekinetix: sudo mount /dev/sdd cdrom | 04:11 |
| baty | ppl im having problems wich ubuntu distro should i install in a PII 333mhz 256 dimm 8mb video | 04:11 |
| Iceshadow | nickelado: it took me about 2 weeks to get it all figured out. | 04:11 |
| L3th4L | swmiller, | 04:11 |
| L3th4L | swmiller, | 04:11 |
| L3th4L | swmiller, | 04:11 |
| L3th4L | swmiller, | 04:11 |
| usr13 | inversekinetix: ls cdrom | 04:11 |
| L3th4L | swmiller, | 04:11 |
| L3th4L | swmiller, | 04:11 |
| ebirtaid | wtf | 04:11 |
| sparr | bye L3th4L | 04:11 |
| andre | woah... flooding bad | 04:11 |
| astro76 | !repeat | L3th4L | 04:11 |
| ubotu | L3th4L: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience | 04:11 |
| IdleOne | baty: xubuntu | 04:11 |
| inversekinetix | usr13 mount: /dev/sdd already mounted or cdrom busy | 04:11 |
| John117_ | sparr that's all hunky dory. but it does not answer my question. | 04:12 |
| Iceshadow | L3th4L: what's the issue you are having? maybe i can be of some help | 04:12 |
| usr13 | inversekinetix: ls /mnt/cdrom | 04:12 |
| Atomic_UE | gluonman, just delete all the partitions. Click on the empty space, click New, and recreate the partitions you want -- Swap Space, Root /, /home, etc | 04:12 |
| Bonster | that was L3th4L | 04:12 |
| John117_ | sparr: how do i install it? | 04:12 |
| gluonman | Atomic_UE, all of them ext3? | 04:12 |
| inversekinetix | usr13 nothing is happening | 04:12 |
| Atomic_UE | gluonman, all except swap, swap will be type swap | 04:12 |
| usr13 | inversekinetix: Type mount tell me what it says. (Where /dev/sdd is mounted.) | 04:12 |
| L3th4L | iceshadow | 04:12 |
| andre | I'm having an issue with compiz... I cannot put check marks on some of the options... like I can't turn on or off the 3d cube. | 04:13 |
| L3th4L | i just cant install a theme on emrald themer none of them | 04:13 |
| L3th4L | trying to find out why and how | 04:13 |
| thinman1189 | how do I add more desktop sides? | 04:13 |
| usr13 | inversekinetix: mount | 04:13 |
| gluonman | Atomic_UE, okay. And the linux_swap only needs to be like 1GiB or a little more, right? | 04:13 |
| Iceshadow | L3th4L: how are you going about trying to add themes? | 04:13 |
| Atomic_UE | gluonman, how much memory you have? | 04:13 |
| Caifan | hola alguien habla español | 04:13 |
| usr13 | inversekinetix: pastebin.ca again (if you need to show me) | 04:13 |
| Pici | !es | Caifan | 04:13 |
| John117_ | I don't understand the instructions on kiba dock's website for installing to gutsy 64bit. Can anybody help? | 04:13 |
| ubotu | Caifan: Si busca ayuda en Español por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, allí obtendrá mas ayuda. | 04:13 |
| bluebanana | what program can i use to upload my files onto my website? | 04:13 |
| inversekinetix | usr13 sdd is not shown | 04:13 |
| gluonman | Atomic_UE, I think I have around 766m total system memory. | 04:14 |
| Iceshadow | bluebanana: is ftp an option for you? | 04:14 |
| bluebanana | and is there a way to do on-the-fly editing of webpages while they are on te server | 04:14 |
| bluebanana | ? | 04:14 |
| usr13 | inversekinetix: Well, it's obviously mounted somewhere. | 04:14 |
| curi0 | Atomic_UE, can I add "main restricted universe multiverse" to the six ubuntu gutsy repositories that I have? | 04:14 |
| bluebanana | Iceshadow: yes, ftp is an option. The webhosting company gave me a login and password | 04:14 |
| ebirtaid | type mount ;p | 04:14 |
| Atomic_UE | gluonman, some people say the same size as the amount of memory you have, some say 1.5x what your memory is, and others like me just put in 1gb :P | 04:14 |
| usr13 | inversekinetix: Try: ls /media/cdrom or ls /media/cdrom0 | 04:14 |
| andre | I'm having an issue with compiz... I cannot put check marks on some of the options... like I can't turn on or off the 3d cube. | 04:14 |
| gluonman | Atomic_UE, when I installed ubuntu the first time it automatically made a swap partition of between 1 and 2 gigs. | 04:15 |
| ebirtaid | andre: /join #compiz-fusion | 04:15 |
| usr13 | inversekinetix: sudo umount /dev/hdd | 04:15 |
| DELTA9THC1 | nickelado why do you want to use samba? try to install ntfs-config,it's enough for me | 04:15 |
| Pici | andre: Please ask about that in #compiz-fusion, they handle config issues like that. | 04:15 |
| gluonman | Atomic_UE, so just 1GiB should be fine, right? | 04:15 |
| Iceshadow | bluebanana: you could give gftp a try. GTK based ftp client. | 04:15 |
| astro76 | gluonman, I'd probably use 1 - 1.5 GB for swap for that | 04:15 |
| c0Ld | Firefox seems to be taking excessive CPU time (20-30%) when idling. This is fixed when it's closed and re-opened, but it's quite annoying. Does anyone know if there's a way to fix it? | 04:15 |
| usr13 | inversekinetix: And then: sudo mount /dev/sdd cdrom | 04:15 |
| astro76 | gluonman, 1 is fine | 04:15 |
| andre | pici: tx | 04:15 |
| andrew__ | anyone know if it's possible to do tail -f file |grep whatever then pipe the result to a file? | 04:15 |
| gluonman | astro76, I'll go with 1. | 04:15 |
| nickelado | I MADE IT!!!! | 04:15 |
| andre | ebirtaid: tx | 04:15 |
| ebirtaid | np | 04:15 |
| Iceshadow | bluebanana: and depending on what kind of web editing you are doing, you can just view as text from there i believe and make the changes you need. | 04:16 |
| Atomic_UE | gluonman, yeah. that way if you ever reinstall another distro or something you can just reuse the thing and not have to enlarge the space in a couple of years or whatever | 04:16 |
| curi0 | Would it pose necessary to add "main restricted universe multiverse" to the six ubuntu gutsy repositories that I have? | 04:16 |
| Iceshadow | nickelado: got it figured out? | 04:16 |
| inversekinetix | usr13 http://pastebin.ca/751182 | 04:16 |
| nickelado | yeah | 04:16 |
| bluebanana | Iceshadow: i like using bluefish | 04:16 |
| DELTA9THC1 | you can see only windows partition,not linux on windows | 04:16 |
| Atomic_UE | curi0, if you want, yes | 04:16 |
| Caifan | entre a ubuntu-es pero nadie responde | 04:16 |
| gluonman | Atomic_UE astro76, thanks guys. I'm going to get started. If I'm back shortly, something went wrong and I have questions. Otherwise, I'll see you sometime later. | 04:16 |
| nickelado | i can have kerberos ticket | 04:16 |
| lalalande | hi i have a problem everytime i try to "su" says ...failure aithougt | 04:16 |
| inversekinetix | usr13 umount: /dev/hdd: not found | 04:16 |
| nickelado | but every time i user the net join ads -U command | 04:16 |
| Nuckinfuts | i just installed Ubuntu 7.10, and the gnome desktop isn't loading correctly, all i get is the background color, no bars or windows, this is after logging in through GDM | 04:16 |
| curi0 | What is deb-src? | 04:16 |
| Atomic_UE | curi0, enabling them via System > Administration > Software Sources, might be simpler | 04:16 |
| Pici | !sudo | lalalande | 04:16 |
| ubotu | lalalande: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information. | 04:16 |
| nickelado | i cant make it join | 04:17 |
| serenecloud | can anyone help me decipher this error I get when installing Jamin? | 04:17 |
| serenecloud | ./configure: line 5130: syntax error near unexpected token `no' | 04:17 |
| serenecloud | ./configure: line 5130: `AC_ENABLE_STATIC(no)' | 04:17 |
| Iceshadow | bluebanana: unless bluefish has an option to sync to a directory, you are probably stuck moving files back and forth as you make changes. I'm not familiar with it though, so I can't say for sure. | 04:17 |
| multidex | can I install a .deb package in ubuntu? | 04:17 |
| PaPaFD | anyone know anything about setting up hotway with evolution? | 04:17 |
| Nuckinfuts | yes | 04:17 |
| curi0 | Atomic_UE, I prefer learning the location of files because I've been bringing this system back from the dead :) I'll just edit my sources.list. I'm not afraid! | 04:17 |
| dystopianray | multidex: click on it | 04:17 |
| L3th4L | iceshadow join #hellou | 04:17 |
| Pici | curi0: Its whats gets used if you try to download source packages, you really dont need this unless you are planning on installing stuff from source | 04:17 |
| nickelado | then after 4 tiring days and 8 hrs of finding a solution heres the command that make it join sudo net rpc join -U user | 04:17 |
| Caifan | alguien me podria decir como desinstalar Avant Window Manager | 04:18 |
| multidex | dystopianray: you kiddin' me? lol | 04:18 |
| Atomic_UE | multidex, yes, preferrably one that was made for your version of ubuntu though | 04:18 |
| nickelado | asta lavista peepz | 04:18 |
| usr13 | inversekinetix: Can you show me the script you used to mount the ISO image? Or show me where you got it? | 04:18 |
| nickelado | need to sleep now | 04:18 |
| dystopianray | multidex: it might be double-click, i don't remember | 04:18 |
| curi0 | Pici, that answers my question, thank you! | 04:18 |
| Atomic_UE | curi0, I used to be like that, now I'm just lazy :P | 04:18 |
| Pici | Caifan: Caifan Este canal es solamente Inglés. Lo siento. | 04:18 |
| bluebanana | i've used bluefish and text-editor with gftp before. with either editors, i have to save the temp directory and then quit the program first, then gftp will ask me if i want to upload the cchanged file. | 04:18 |
| inversekinetix | usr13 i got it from ubuntugeek, but it wont let me access the site now | 04:18 |
| Caifan | please !! | 04:19 |
| John117_ | Hey guys. I'm not an uber-geek. Are there any clear-cut instructions on how to install kiba-dock on gutsy 64bit? | 04:19 |
| Nuckinfuts | does Ubuntu 7.10 have issues with ATI video cards? | 04:19 |
| bluebanana | Iceshadow: is there a way for the changes to be made to the server's file without my closing the editor program? | 04:19 |
| inversekinetix | usr13i dont know were the scripts went to onthis box | 04:19 |
| multidex | Nuckinfuts: I'm using an ATI card with it, no problems | 04:19 |
| Iceshadow | bluebanana: just move the files in gftp back and forth once you make the edits. that's the way i've done it for years. | 04:19 |
| curi0 | Atomic_UE, I can't be lazy right now because I have no cdrom drive and I installed Edgy from my USB. And since the installation I've been configuring and breaking things and fixing them from the prompt with the wonderful use of dpkg, and apt-get. | 04:20 |
| dystopianray | Nuckinfuts: linux in general has issues with ATI cards | 04:20 |
| Tommy | Hello, can anyone living in the US answer a few (non-ubuntu) related questions in a private chat? | 04:20 |
| Iceshadow | bluebanana: like i said, unless bluefish has a sync option, but im not familiar with it | 04:20 |
| usr13 | inversekinetix: Not sure how to fix your system, until I see what's been done. If I could see the script, there's a chance, but without that, it's just like wandering around in the dark. :( | 04:20 |
| curi0 | Oh man those do wonders, if you know what packages you need to remove and install to get back your system. | 04:20 |
| power78 | Is there a Compiz effect for MacOS? | 04:20 |
| Nuckinfuts | multidex: i have a X800XT AIW card, and the gnome desktop isn't loading | 04:20 |
| inversekinetix | usr13 where are the scripts likely to be, i dont know ubuntus filing system yet (sorry for being a noob) | 04:20 |
| LinuxInsid1 | maybe | 04:20 |
| usr13 | Your cdrom must be sdc | 04:20 |
| usr13 | inversekinetix: Try mount /dev/sdc cdrom | 04:21 |
| bluebanana | Iceshadow: what text editor has a sync option? | 04:21 |
| felipernb | does any of you develop rails apps with netbeans under ubuntu? | 04:21 |
| zepp | why isnt my master volume working? | 04:21 |
| speedy20 | can any1 tell me how to change the splash screen on gnome? | 04:21 |
| John117_ | Hey guys. I'm not an uber-geek. Are there any clear-cut instructions on how to install kiba-dock on gutsy 64bit? | 04:21 |

| deeproot | using ati x1400 with newest ati drivers i have a horrible flicker while watchin a moive only in the movie area | 04:21 |
| deeproot | is that a known problem | 04:21 |
| Iceshadow | bluebanana: not sure. you could try freshmeat and see what's there. or write a script to sync remote/local folders | 04:21 |
| Atomic_UE | power78, ask that in #compiz-fusion , but I don't think so | 04:21 |
| dystopianray | deeproot: the newest as in 8.42.3 ? | 04:22 |
| deeproot | yes | 04:22 |
| Radio_man | Did U right click on the sound icon and click preferences | 04:22 |

| felipernb | does any of you develop rails apps with netbeans under ubuntu? | 04:22 |
| zepp | what sound icon? | 04:22 |

| Radio_man | the speaker icon in the tray | 04:23 |
| gluonman | Atomic_UE, I set everything up as I thought I was supposed to, but when I tried to apply the changes, it said no root system defined. | 04:23 |
| zepp | i have a volume icon | 04:23 |
| Flannel | changelog: You sure that's the right image? | 04:23 |
| zepp | im using xubuntu | 04:23 |
| usr13 | inversekinetix: Actually, you might just try to manually re-create the default mount point /media/cdrom0 | 04:23 |
| mordaunt | is there any reason why ubuntu automatically uses gmplayer... when I type in mplayer as the program associated with a file? | 04:23 |
| strick | (Freeloader) Anybody uses that App. PLEASE say something | 04:23 |
| inversekinetix | usr13 how can i do that | 04:23 |
| Radio_man | oh ok..then I miss spoke, | 04:23 |
| deadlylife | I have an audio problem. | 04:23 |
| gluonman | Atomic_UE, I'm guessing that I didn't give a correct mount point. I wrote /dev/sda1 for the root /. | 04:23 |
| Atomic_UE | gluonman, yeh that's wrong | 04:24 |
| Caifan | help how unistall Avant Window Manager | 04:24 |
| multidex | Nuckinfuts: not sure what to tell you | 04:24 |
| LinuxInsid1 | changelog: can't open it | 04:24 |
| deadlylife | It seems like my subs are not being used and it results in horrible sound quality. | 04:24 |
| deeproot | i've tried using diff output drivers and i'm currently using xv but they all show the horrible flicker | 04:24 |
| suupaabaka | hi. i just installed a program using a .deb file, but now i want to uninstall it again (didn't suit my needs). how do i go about doing this? | 04:24 |
| Atomic_UE | gluonman, the mount point is where you want to put the thing | 04:24 |
| gnurph69 | How can I X into another Ubuntu box from my main one, can somebody point the way? | 04:24 |
| Atomic_UE | gluonman, you want your root partition to be mounted at / | 04:24 |
| gluonman | Atomic_UE, just / and nothing else? | 04:24 |
| Nuckinfuts | riotkittie: GDM loads up fine, i login, and the screen is the default background color and i have a mouse cursor, no bars, no right click menu, ctrl+alt+delete shutdown menu works so im thinking its a problem with Nautalis | 04:24 |
| changelog | LinuxInsid1: you should, works fine here | 04:24 |
| deadlylife | Does anyone know what to do? | 04:24 |
| Atomic_UE | gluonman, your home partition at /home and opt at /opt | 04:24 |
| John117_ | Hey guys. I'm not an uber-geek. Are there any clear-cut instructions on how to install kiba-dock on gutsy 64bit? | 04:24 |
| Atomic_UE | gluonman, for the mount point yes | 04:25 |
| me208 | hey guys | 04:25 |
| Iceshadow | has anyone in here worked with mounting an image as an encrypted volume by chance? | 04:25 |
| LinuxInsid1 | changelog: i cant ! i tried | 04:25 |
| gluonman | Atomic_UE, I had no problem with the other partitions' mount points, I just didn't get the root's correct. Now I know, I'll try it again, and it should work this time. Thanks. | 04:25 |
| strick | Does Freeloader app. resume torrents if I have completed half of the file before then Rebooted my system, or does it start all over again? | 04:25 |
| Atomic_UE | gluonman, /dev/sda1 etc is the device that points to that partitions/device. you're mounting the device /dev/sda1 onto / | 04:25 |
| Caifan | su ayuda por favor creanme que no los molestaria pero nadie mas me contesta !!! | 04:25 |
| me208 | anybody get usp2 working on gutsy? | 04:25 |
| curi0 | Atomic_UE, here I go, on my way to re-installing the crucial system applications and deleting my xorg.conf files. | 04:25 |
| deeproot | gnurph69 have you tried VNC | 04:25 |

| thinman1189 | atomic_ue yeah but I can't get it to rotate the way I want to so I am trying to install flash and watch a tutorial but I accidentally sent the firefox to another workspace that I can't access. I didn't really know how to add workspaces, I just right clicked on the two that were there and added another row. | 04:37 |
| Jordan_U_ | juliodominguez, What brand of GPU? | 04:37 |
| dystopianray | tiago: what exactly do you want to do? | 04:37 |
| Atomic_UE | thinman1189, are you using the desktop cube plugin? | 04:37 |
| Bonster | dont think u can do that | 04:37 |

| thinman1189 | atomic_ue yes | 04:38 |
| inversekinetix | usr13 if i put a blank disk in it will read it and prompt me for action, does this mean anything? | 04:38 |
| Bonster | just set urself admin | 04:38 |
| tiago | dystopianray: i received this error when launching the virtual machine "The VirtualBox kernel driver is not accessible to the current user. Make sure that the user has write permissions for /dev/vboxdrv by adding them to the vboxusers groups. You will need to logout for the change to take effect.." | 04:38 |
| gu014 | whats the easiest way for me to burn a dmg fiel under ubuntu? | 04:38 |
| Atomic_UE | thinman1189, if you're using the desktop cube plugin you need to also enable the Rotate Cube plugin. If you're using the Desktop Wall plugin you need to enable the ViewPort Switcher plugin | 04:38 |
| r00723r0 | would anyone recommend listen as a media player? | 04:38 |
| Bonster | and every1 else guest | 04:38 |
| dystopianray | tiago: add your user to the vboxusers group | 04:38 |
| usr13 | inversekinetix: What action? | 04:38 |
| Jordan_U_ | gu014, Use OSx to convert it to an iso first :) | 04:39 |
| usr13 | inversekinetix: Can you read the CD? | 04:39 |
| inversekinetix | usr13 to burn a disk | 04:39 |
| tiago | dystopianray: whats the vboxusers group, and how do i access it? | 04:39 |
| inversekinetix | CD/DVD creator folder opens | 04:39 |
| strick | Does Freeloader app. resume torrents if I have completed half of the file before then Rebooted my system, or does it start all over again? | 04:39 |
| gu014 | Jordan_U: i downloaded it with ubuntu and it is rather large | 04:39 |
| gu014 | :( | 04:39 |
| Nuckinfuts | is there anyway to execute a command from tty1 and have it run under tty7? | 04:39 |
| dystopianray | tiago: it's the group you must be part of in order to use virtualbox | 04:39 |
| thinman1189 | atomic_ue I have the rotate cube plug in but it will only switch between desktop 1 and 2 and I can't get it do anything more than just flip | 04:39 |
| ebirtaid | strick: it should resume if it is worth half a damn | 04:39 |
| dystopianray | tiago: sudo gpasswd -a username vboxusers | 04:39 |
| Atomic_UE | thinman1189, if you use the rotate cube plugin you may want to enable ViewPort Switcher plugin depending on how you have setup your rotat cube plugin | 04:39 |
| Jordan_U_ | juliodominguez, Try running "gksu restricted-manager" | 04:39 |
| dystopianray | tiago: replace 'username' with your username | 04:40 |
| bluebanana | how do i mount my ftp site (for my website) onto nautilus? | 04:40 |
| === amidanie1 is now known as AmiDaniel_away | ||
| ebirtaid | strick: if not get another client because that one would be horrible if it cant resume | 04:40 |
| Atomic_UE | thinman1189, you should just be able to click on the workspaces in the bottom right and it should flip between them | 04:40 |
| strick | ebirtaid, it looks like it started all over in the "Complete" counter | 04:40 |
| usr13 | inversekinetix: Can you join me on private channel #inversekinetix ? | 04:40 |
| deeproot | juliodominguez it shows you should use the i810 intel driver | 04:40 |
| tiago | dystopianray: thanks mate =) | 04:40 |
| thinman1189 | atomic_ue it is enabled. is it perhaps that I set up the workspaces wrong? how are you supposed to add workspaces? | 04:40 |
| juliodominguez | it only show's the software modem driver | 04:40 |
| ebirtaid | is it downloading to the proper directory still? I've never even heard of it so I cant be of muc help | 04:40 |
| deeproot | that should be an open driver that is avail | 04:40 |
| me208 | bluebanna: open up a nautilus window and click on file then connect to server then select the type of server, then input your information | 04:41 |
| Jordan_U_ | juliodominguez, Do you think that you have an intel card? | 04:41 |
| bluebanana | me208: it's that easy? wow | 04:41 |
| Atomic_UE | thinman1189, try clicking on each of the workspaces in the bottom right | 04:41 |
| deeproot | that model shows he has a 815gm video card | 04:41 |
| me208 | yep its that easy | 04:41 |
| bluebanana | me208: no need for gftp or filezilla then. | 04:41 |
| juliodominguez | yes its and intel card | 04:41 |
| me208 | nope | 04:41 |
| Iceshadow | bluebanana: ah that looks like a good solution O_o | 04:41 |
| Atomic_UE | thinman1189, to add/change workspaces I just right click on them in the bottom right and go to preferences | 04:41 |
| Iceshadow | bluebanana: you'll have to forgive my ways, im a sucker for doing things the hard way. | 04:42 |
| thinman1189 | atomic_ue : if I click on workspace 3 or 4 it will switch to the on top ( 3 switches to 1 and 4 switches to 2) | 04:42 |
| juliodominguez | i found this | 04:42 |
| Jordan_U_ | juliodominguez, Ok, then "sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-intel" then run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh" and choose "intel" as the driver | 04:42 |
| juliodominguez | i'll post the link | 04:42 |
| me208 | bluebanna: what html editor do you use? | 04:42 |
| Atomic_UE | thinman1189, you have 2 rows? | 04:42 |
| thinman1189 | atomic_ue yes. | 04:42 |
| bluebanana | me208: Nautilus doesn't show me all the other folders. I don't see my html files | 04:43 |
| Atomic_UE | thinman1189, yeah the mouse focus on that is a tad dodgy when it's that small | 04:43 |
| bluebanana | me208: but i see the files in gftp or filezilla. pls advise | 04:43 |
| aoeuid | I've looked on the forums, etc. and I can't figure this out: how do you configure the panel from the command line? | 04:43 |
| Atomic_UE | thinman1189, either make your panel larger or just have 1 row at that size | 04:43 |
| aoeuid | anyone know? | 04:43 |
| Jordan_U_ | juliodominguez, Those steps can also be done in the GUI but I dont know how for sure in XFCE | 04:43 |
| Nuckinfuts | for some reason when i logged in, gnome and nautilus didnt get started, so tty7 only has xorg running, anyway to fix this? | 04:44 |

| Atomic_UE | r00723r0, ebirtaid, that was straight from exaile. Maybe try installing the gstreamer-plugins-bad package and see if you get it | 04:53 |

| * IndyGunFreak panics! | 05:15 | |
| Kyan | that's now really what I call humanity to others | 05:15 |
| sam55 | kyan .. reboot, choose the kernle you want ot boot from, press e to edit, and then add "single" at the end of the line which specifies the kernel. You will get a command prompt (not GUI). THen you can reinstall GDM and see of that works. | 05:15 |
| Kyan | ok | 05:16 |
| speeddemon8803 | ah, there ya go kyan :) | 05:16 |
| Jordan_U_ | juliodominguez, Pick anything, but for the driver choose "vesa", it will not be hight resolution since vesa is the VGA driver | 05:16 |
| Jordan_U_ | juliodominguez, Or, actually, try "i810" | 05:16 |
| Kyan | can I reinstall GM once there? | 05:16 |
| sam55 | kyon: you will need to press on the line that tartw with "kernel" and add "single" at the end (wihtout quotes). | 05:17 |
| sam55 | kyan: when you get the text based login, you canlog in as your username. | 05:17 |
| r00723r0 | wow | 05:17 |
| r00723r0 | exaile is sweet | 05:17 |
| Kyan | one once I'm logged in, what do I do? I don't know which commands to use | 05:17 |
| juliodominguez | mm Jordan_U when i press enter it just loads the terminal.... back again but it doesn't load the OS itself | 05:17 |
| sam55 | kyan: then you should use the command line to reinstall package. For exampe, to reinstall gdm, use "sudo aptitiude update" and then "aptitude reinstall gdm". | 05:18 |
| Kyan | oh | 05:18 |
| ptn107 | question... ubuntu sees my second hard drive but will not mount it, i get "Failed to read last sector (156247888): Invalid argument" can i still recover the data from the drive?? | 05:18 |
| Kyan | aptitude works in command line? | 05:18 |
| Jordan_U_ | juliodominguez, Yes, you either need to reboot "sudo reboot" or restart X "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart" | 05:18 |
| sam55 | sorry, the second one should be "sudo aptitude reinstall gdm". If you do not have aptitude installed, you will have to use apt-get in that case. | 05:18 |
| sam55 | So to use apt-get, you will use "sudo apt-get update" and then "sudo apt-get --reinstall install gdm". | 05:19 |
| Kyan | that works out of GNOME? | 05:19 |
| sam55 | kyan: yes, if you give options to aptitude, ti works on command line. If you don't give any options, it starts in a text based GUI mode | 05:19 |
| Jordan_U_ | Kyan, System -> Administration -> Synaptic | 05:19 |
| gluonman | Atomic_UE, if you're there, everything worked smoothly. | 05:19 |
| Kyan | Jordan, I dont have GNOME | 05:20 |
| Kyan | well I do, but it wont start | 05:20 |
| sam55 | Jordan_U_: if I understood that, kyan does nto have a GUI to work with! | 05:20 |
| Jordan_U_ | ahh, misunderstood the question :) | 05:20 |
| Jordan_U_ | juliodominguez, What has happened? Have you restarted X? | 05:21 |
| Kyan | This is I went to gnome-look.org and I chose a theme for the login window, then i restarted and there was this error | 05:21 |
| Kyan | and now I can't get to GNOME | 05:21 |
| juliodominguez | i have restarted x Jordan_U and restarted sudo reboot so i'ts loading? i think... lol we'll see :D | 05:21 |
| sam55 | kyan .. oh, in that case, you just need to revert the theme back. | 05:21 |
| Kyan | how | 05:22 |
| sam55 | kyan: what was the name of the theme? | 05:22 |
| Jordan_U_ | juliodominguez, Did you choose the "vesa" driver or "i810" ? | 05:22 |
| prak | are there any other good lightweight media players besides xmms (no longer supported), bmp (bmpx is not lightweight), and mpg123? | 05:22 |
| juliodominguez | mm it still show's the terminal... i cant choose vesa cuz it wont let me choose the resolution :S | 05:22 |
| gnurph69 | i can connect to a remote system using VNC...but i can't enter the password. anybody got any ideas? | 05:22 |
| Kyan | oh i dont remember, but it was one that looks like green leaves, it's one of the top rated ones in gnome-look-org | 05:23 |
| arvin2212 | guys | 05:23 |
| arvin2212 | can i ask for help here? | 05:23 |
| pvl | yes | 05:23 |
| Bonster | nop | 05:23 |
| pvl | can anyone help me set up jack server? | 05:23 |
| sam55 | kyan: your change should have done in /etc/gdm/gdm.conf-custom. Here you will need to delete the name of the theme after the variable GraphicalTheme | 05:23 |
| arvin2212 | how do i get the gtk files in ubuntu? | 05:24 |
| sam55 | kyan, so you can try doing that right now. Mount your / partition,or the one that has /etc in it. And open that file to edit. | 05:24 |
| Kyan | right now im a live CD, can i do those change from hre? | 05:24 |
| sam55 | and remove the value of of GraphicalTheme variable (i.e. set it to empty) and restart yoru machine and see if it works. | 05:24 |
| Jordan_U_ | juliodominguez, I am not sure what you mean, what do you see right now? | 05:24 |
| ebirtaid | arvin2212: which gtk files? the development headers or .gtkrc or what | 05:25 |
| sam55 | kyan: or set it to Human instead of the value you gave it before. | 05:25 |
| sam55 | kyan: yup, you should be able to edit that file from this live CD. | 05:25 |
| Kyan | ok how | 05:25 |
| juliodominguez | woah my resolution is all mest up now lol | 05:25 |
| sam55 | kyan: you nee dto mount the partition which has that dir, and then open that file in an editor (gedit will work). | 05:25 |
| arvin2212 | erm ebirtaid | 05:25 |
| Kyan | it seems that my partition isn't showing in fstab | 05:25 |
| arvin2212 | im quite new in this | 05:25 |
| arvin2212 | im trying to install the bittorrent client, transmission | 05:26 |
| arvin2212 | they said i needed gtk files to compile it | 05:26 |
| sam55 | no no .. not in fstab. If you are in live CD, go to places and then find out from yoru "Computer" the various partitions. | 05:26 |
| ebirtaid | sudo apt-get install transmission-gtk should work | 05:26 |
| Kyan | oh ok | 05:26 |
| Kyan | let me try that | 05:26 |
| arvin2212 | it works | 05:26 |
| arvin2212 | thanks | 05:26 |
| arvin2212 | ^^ | 05:26 |
| Jordan_U_ | juliodominguez, Ok, the origional problem you had was resolution, correct? | 05:27 |
| ebirtaid | np | 05:27 |
| Kyan | my partition isn't showing in Places | 05:27 |
| Kyan | that is Nautilus | 05:27 |
| sam55 | kyan: what about in "Computer"? | 05:27 |
| sam55 | or in "System"? | 05:27 |
| pvl | can anyone help me set up jack server/ | 05:27 |
| juliodominguez | yes Jordan_U i'm going to reinstall and start again lol but i'm installing xubuntu but the xubuntu irc chat room is dead x] even tough there is a bunch of people | 05:28 |
| sam55 | I don't have my Ubuntu on, I am Debian and on KDE so can't walk you though the windows. | 05:28 |
| Jordan_U_ | pvl, Just install ubuntu-studio | 05:28 |
| Kyan | i think you should know this live cd is an Ubuntu 5.10 | 05:28 |
| Jordan_U_ | pvl, Make sure that you also install the low latency kernel | 05:28 |
| pvl | Jordan_U: running off of it currently | 05:28 |
| pvl | Jordan_U: that idk, i shall check | 05:28 |
| sam55 | okay, does it give you the icons on yoru deskto of variuos partitions? | 05:28 |
| Kyan | no | 05:28 |
| Kyan | it just shows the CD Room | 05:29 |
| Kyan | icon | 05:29 |
| arvin2212 | hello guys | 05:29 |
| arvin2212 | again 1 more question, how do i install the Gnu C compiler | 05:29 |
| mudoch | good evening... just finished my upgrade to 7.10... having issue with phpMyAdmin | 05:29 |
| sam55 | kyan: does it give the menus (the three or four) on the top left? | 05:29 |
| Kyan | yes | 05:29 |
| arvin2212 | again 1 more question, how do i install the Gnu C compiler | 05:29 |
| Kyan | I see the menus | 05:29 |
| sam55 | kyan: in the second menu, is it Places? | 05:29 |
| Kyan | yes | 05:29 |
| Exilant | arvin2212: do you want just C, or also make etc.? | 05:29 |
| Kyan | i tried that one | 05:29 |
| Jordan_U_ | !compile | arvin2212 | 05:29 |
| sam55 | kyan: if you open that what entries do you see? | 05:29 |
| Kyan | Computer | 05:29 |
| Pownties | Would Xubuntu run better on my old system ? | 05:30 |
| Kyan | I told you my partition isn't showing in the fstab config file | 05:30 |
| Kyan | :( | 05:30 |
| cyros- | pownties: yea | 05:30 |
| sam55 | kyan: what is in Computer? or what does it give if it opens nautilus? | 05:30 |
| juliodominguez | Pownties: it will it uses less resources | 05:30 |
| sam55 | oh. | 05:30 |
| Bonster | sudo fdisk -l? | 05:30 |
| Pownties | juliodominguez: In Ubuntu things would take 30 seconds to load, then the damn windows would animate when closing/opening, etc, making it worse than Xp ever thought about lagging | 05:30 |
| sam55 | kyan: open a terminal and give the command "sudo gparted" and see if it open the application. | 05:30 |
| dwf_starband2 | i have a 80gig fat32 usb drive im trying to use in gutsy (it has abunch of backup stuff in it) i can mount it using pmount like i did in feisty but when I try to browse the folders and files in nautilus its a minute or so before it responds to anything each time I open a folder or do anything with that drive. | 05:30 |
| Kyan | CD-RW, cdrom, Filesystem | 05:30 |
| dwf_starband2 | anyone know what my problem is? | 05:31 |
| Kyan | that's all i get | 05:31 |
| Kyan | and that filesystem is the one on the RAM | 05:31 |
| arvin2212 | guys about the compiler thingy, i got this message from the transmission channel.. <snarfer> arvin2212, ask the ubuntu team where the GCC utilites are? | 05:31 |
| Pownties | Then GOD forbid if I used Alt+Tab | 05:31 |
| sam55 | kyan: okay. But try to open gparted using the command "sudo gparted" in a terminal window. | 05:31 |
| juliodominguez | yeah Pownties, it wont run fast if you dont have a graphic card mine loads up fast on my desktop i'm installing xubuntu on my laptop as we speak | 05:31 |
| Kyan | ok | 05:31 |
| mudoch | hi all after upgrade phpmyadmin was prompting for login, went to run the scripts/setup and get prompted for a user/passowrd. none work tried root... any ideas what changed? | 05:32 |
| Jordan_U_ | arvin2212, install the package "build-essential" | 05:32 |
| cyros- | kyan: also try "sudo qtparted" | 05:32 |
| Exilant | arvin2212: you probably want "gcc" and "build-essentials" | 05:32 |
| cyros- | if the other one isnt there | 05:32 |
| Kyan | ok gparted is scanning all my devices | 05:32 |
| arvin2212 | hm.. | 05:32 |
| arvin2212 | how do i go about installing those? | 05:32 |
| Pownties | juliodominguez: This is a VooDoo3 3DFX 8 MB AGP, 10 GB Internal, P2 450, and 320 MBs of SDRAm | 05:32 |
| buttercups | arvin2212, sudo apt-get install build-essential, good buddy | 05:32 |
| sam55 | kyan: right, from here you can guess the partition of your / . | 05:32 |
| Pownties | mka | 05:32 |
| Pownties | y | 05:32 |
| arvin2212 | thanks | 05:32 |
| Exilant | although build-essentials is a bit too much, it's sound | 05:32 |
| juliodominguez | quetion... lol why cant i install xubuntu not doing low graphics mode? | 05:32 |
| arvin2212 | :) | 05:32 |
| sam55 | kyan: let me kknow once you know which partition has /etc/ in your machine. | 05:32 |
| prak | is there anyone here who's familiar with the command "say" in terminal? | 05:32 |
| === Q_Contoxicated is now known as Q_Continuum | ||
| Kyan | Here I can see it | 05:32 |
| juliodominguez | yeah Pownties you will need to install xubuntu you only have 8mb of video | 05:33 |
| sam55 | kyan: do NOT do anything in gparted. Just find out which partition has /etc. | 05:33 |
| Pownties | Only? | 05:33 |
| Pownties | Hell I aint running games | 05:33 |
| Pownties | I'm wanting to run a simple OS | 05:33 |
| Pownties | LOL | 05:33 |
| Kyan | how can i see the etc? | 05:33 |
| Kyan | where | 05:33 |
| pvl1 | JOrdan_U: is this low latency kernel related to jack or more to ubuntu? | 05:33 |
| sam55 | kyan: you can't. You will have to guess looking at the sizes. How many partitions are there? | 05:33 |
| Jordan_U_ | juliodominguez, What files do you have in your /etc/X11 directory, there should be a backup of your origional xorg.conf | 05:34 |
| Exilant | Anyone in here has any thoughts on modifying a ubuntu cd, is it painful or advised against, and how would I do it? | 05:34 |
| Kyan | 5 partitions | 05:34 |
| Pownties | freegen flood | 05:34 |
| sam55 | kyan: do you recallmaking them? | 05:34 |
| Kyan | yes | 05:34 |
| linuxn00b314 | I just installed gutsy, and after booting and seeing "kernel alive", I get a blank screen, any ideas | 05:34 |
| zepp | ESE | 05:34 |
| sam55 | kyan: of these, can you eliminate some as being NOT / (i.e. contaiing something else, WIndows perhaps, /home perhaps). | 05:35 |
| Pownties | So would Xubuntu be worth a shot on my computer? Or would I be wasting time with it also ? | 05:35 |
| Kyan | "/dev/sda3 is where i installed ubuntu | 05:35 |
| ebirtaid | fn'Pownties: what are the specs? | 05:35 |
| juliodominguez | Pownties: its a risk that i would take it runs prettry darn good on my laptop | 05:35 |
| juliodominguez | i just cant get a good stinky resolution :p | 05:35 |
| Exilant | linuxn00b314: I think that's normal. but if nothing happens if you wait... | 05:35 |
| sam55 | great, so that is the one we need to mount. Close gparted and create a new directory in /mnt called something easy , e.g. /mnt/mp | 05:35 |
| prak | are there any other good lightweight media players besides xmms (no longer supported), bmp (bmpx is not lightweight), and mpg123? | 05:35 |
| sam55 | where mp is the mount point we will use. | 05:35 |
| juliodominguez | but Jordan_U is helping me :p | 05:35 |
| Kyan | the others are my windows partitions sda1 and sda2 | 05:35 |
| juliodominguez | once i install it again... :S | 05:35 |
| Pownties | juliodominguez: Yes, XP runs fair till I have to start loading it up with monkey AV's and stuff | 05:36 |
| sam55 | kyan: great. So, make a directory in /mnt called "mp". | 05:36 |
| Kyan | where | 05:36 |
| linuxn00b314 | Exilant: nothing happened,I waited for like 5 minutes | 05:36 |
| Kyan | ok | 05:36 |
| Exilant | linuxn00b314: somehow gutsy assumes 12xx*1024, on lcds not supporting this you won't see anything till x starts | 05:36 |
| sam55 | kyan: open a termianl and type "mkdir /mnt/mp" | 05:36 |
| Pownties | ebirtaid: 320 MB PC100 RAM, 10 GB internal, VooDoo3 8 MB AGP, P2 450MHz | 05:36 |
| juliodominguez | Pownties: i say you install xubuntu it's going to be more safe then windows | 05:36 |
| Zellius | hi there. I just tried to do a fresh install of 7.10 on my thinkpad t43. it boots into grub and says "Loading...", and then the screen goes black. i think the OS loads though. it has a mobility ATI card and I suspect the problem might be that ubuntu isnt loading the right driver. how can i fix this? | 05:36 |
| zepp | how can i grab files fro ma unix server | 05:36 |
| ebirtaid | 320mb is pretty low, xubuntu SHOULD run though | 05:37 |
| Pownties | juliodominguez: yes, but it ran lower than XP.. To my surprize. | 05:37 |
| Kyan | mkdir: cannot create directory `/mnt/mp': Permission denied | 05:37 |
| ebirtaid | if not you could try DSL or puppy | 05:37 |
| Kyan | should i sudo? | 05:37 |
| sam55 | kyan: use "sudo mkdir /mnt/mp" then. | 05:37 |
| juliodominguez | Pownties: did you install xubuntu or ubuntu? | 05:37 |
| Exilant | linuxn00b314: you might want to remove "silent" and "splash" from the grub boot line, dunno if that works in gutsy though, had problems | 05:37 |
| pwilson | Hi folks, just installed 7.10, and my K menu is populated with really odd names. everything starts with _:Entries in K menu: Strigi... I've already asked this in the kubuntu chan. place is a ghost town. | 05:37 |
| Kyan | ok, now it accepted the command | 05:37 |
| juliodominguez | cuz ubuntu needs a good graphics card | 05:37 |
| Kyan | now what | 05:37 |
| Pownties | Ubuntu , Kubuntu just pissed me off , I never liked KDE. | 05:37 |
| sam55 | kyan: now, give the command "sudo mount -t auto /dev/sda3 /mnt/mp" | 05:37 |
| Pownties | OK, I will give Xubuntu a shot then. | 05:38 |
| ebirtaid | fn'juliodominguez: no it doesnt, it will not start compiz if your video driver isnt compatible | 05:38 |
| sam55 | kyan: give that commadn from within the terminal. | 05:38 |
| Zeke75 | I need some help with setting up networking with VMware. Is there a channel better suited for this, or can someone in here help me? | 05:38 |
| Kyan | ok it accepted it | 05:38 |
| Kyan | no errors | 05:38 |
| Jordan_U_ | Pownties, Are you looking for a lightweight distro? | 05:38 |
| sam55 | great. Now you can go form Nautilus to /mnt/mp. | 05:38 |
| sam55 | See if you see "etc" directory there. | 05:38 |
| juliodominguez | mine is installing xubuntu in safe graphics mode | 05:38 |
| Pownties | Jordan_U_: I am looking for a "works, but doesn't grab ass" | 05:38 |

| Thegiver | wtf gusty messed up my wireless =-( | 05:39 |
| Thegiver | any ideas? | 05:39 |
| Kyan | yay! Now it mounted my partion on the hard drive | 05:39 |
| ebirtaid | messed up how | 05:39 |
| mudoch | hi all, can anyone help me with a minor upgrade casued error ? | 05:39 |
| Thegiver | i wish there was an option to make the update not mess with anything like wifi/ethernet and other partitions | 05:39 |
| Atomic_UE | someone was looking for me? | 05:39 |
| sam55 | kyan: *you* did! Can you use nautilus to go into /mnt/mp/etc ? | 05:39 |
| Kyan | yes | 05:39 |
| arvin2212 | guys..any good recomended bt client for ubuntu? other than deluge/ktorrent/gtktorrent/ | 05:39 |
| Kyan | i see my folders now! | 05:40 |
| mattbot | I installed wicd and uninstalled network-manager. Wicd was more buggy, when I tried to go back, I can't get the system tray icon for network-manager to appear (I just did #apt-get install network-manager and restarted the PC when I didn't see it right away) | 05:40 |
| linuxn00b314 | Exilant: k, I tried removing quiet from the boot command | 05:40 |
| sam55 | kyan: so from etc, find gdm/gdm.conf | 05:40 |
| ebirtaid | fn'arvin2212: how are you going to rule out the three major clients ;p | 05:40 |
| mattbot | arvin2212, what don't you like about the ones you listed? | 05:40 |
| Kyan | ok | 05:40 |
| arvin2212 | er | 05:40 |
| Jordan_U_ | Pownties, Might try Fedora, it's a little annoying enabling restricted things like mp3 becase they are stricter about non-free components | 05:40 |
| arvin2212 | well | 05:40 |
| Atomic_UE | arvin2212, azureus | 05:40 |
| arvin2212 | deluge was working fine | 05:40 |
| arvin2212 | until today | 05:40 |
| cyros- | arvin2212: azureus ? | 05:40 |
| arvin2212 | guess my isp throttled it | 05:40 |
| arvin2212 | azuerues | 05:40 |
| arvin2212 | is too confusing for me | 05:40 |
| pwilson | Any help with my K menu showing "_: Entries in K menu: Strigi app name..." before every item? | 05:41 |
| arvin2212 | never get full speed with it | 05:41 |
| cyros- | oh ok | 05:41 |
| arvin2212 | :) | 05:41 |
| ebirtaid | well then changing clients wont help if your isp is throttling bandwidth | 05:41 |
| n00b | hmm | 05:41 |
| sam55 | kyan: to open it with proper permissions, you have to use sudo. So from the terminal, do "sudo gedit", which will give you the editor. In that editor, open /mnt/mp/etc/gdm/gdm.conf for edting. | 05:41 |
| === |NephTest| is now known as NephLaptop | ||
| cvd | Its there away to reset the audio/alsa etc settings to the originals of gutsy, i dont know what i do but know i cant play more than to players at the same time.. | 05:41 |
| Pownties | Jordan_U_: I want something that I install, and I don't have to shoot people to get things to work. That's why I came to see about Ubuntu in the first place. | 05:41 |
| Kyan | ok hold a sec | 05:41 |
| Pownties | Someone also said I should try it with Fluxbox. | 05:41 |
| dwf_starband2 | im having trouble with nautilus running really slow when browsing an external hard drive mounted using pmount, any ideas? | 05:42 |
| juliodominguez | lol can you just install linux with gnome? | 05:42 |
| riotkittie | yea, go for fluxbox | 05:42 |
| juliodominguez | my teacher had it ... | 05:42 |
| arvin2212 | well..they've throttled some bt clients as deluge was working just fine until today | 05:42 |
| Exilant | linuxn00b314: yeah, i did too, didn't see a thing either, dunno why | 05:42 |
| yell0w | !cron | 05:42 |
| Pownties | riotkittie: will it make me want to say "what in the hell is this pile of crap" like with KDE? | 05:42 |
| mudoch | question what is the new phpMyAdmin doing to my system? If O login using the main page I get to the DBs just fine, try and preset the login and /scripts/setp.php prompt for a user, any suggestions as to what it is? | 05:43 |
| yell0w | bot's gone | 05:43 |
| Exilant | but i think it shouldn't be like that | 05:43 |
| ebirtaid | arvin it is ports not clients | 05:43 |
| riotkittie | they dont throttle clients, they throttle ports. | 05:43 |
| sam55 | kyan: so do you have gdm.conf open for editing in gedit yet? | 05:43 |
| ebirtaid | pownties: fluxbox is very minimal | 05:43 |
| Kyan | yes | 05:43 |
| cvd | any | 05:43 |
| ebirtaid | check some screenshots | 05:43 |
| cvd | ? | 05:43 |
| Kyan | you want to see it? | 05:43 |
| Pownties | ebirtaid: even more minimal than the one inside of Xubuntu ? | 05:43 |
| Kyan | the conf file | 05:43 |
| ebirtaid | yes | 05:44 |
| sam55 | kyan: what is the line which sets the value for GraphicalTheme variable? | 05:44 |
| riotkittie | Pownties: KDE and Fluxbox are on opposite ends of the spectrum, really | 05:44 |
| ebirtaid | basically clock/windowlist/desktop name | 05:44 |
| pinkyflinky | exit | 05:44 |

| webpirate | when I install XGL everything is slow until I start compix-fusion.. | 05:44 |
| webpirate | any ideas why? | 05:45 |

| webpirate | when I start compiz everything is ok | 05:45 |
| Kyan | GraphicalTheme=Human | 05:45 |
| riotkittie | xfce's a desktop environment. fluxbox is merely a window manager. | 05:45 |
| Exilant | had that too | 05:45 |
| ebirtaid | you can use fluxbox under xfce actually | 05:45 |
| ebirtaid | instead of xfwm4 | 05:45 |
| webpirate | Exilant: so I don't have to re-install? | 05:45 |
| sam55 | kyan: that is weird. It looks okay. You sure the file is gdm.conf-custom? | 05:45 |
| webpirate | I won't be using it then | 05:45 |
| Exilant | webpirate: So you have to make sure compiz is started automatically | 05:45 |
| Kyan | no | 05:46 |
| Exilant | webpirate: no | 05:46 |
| buttercups | mattbot, check System>Preferences>Sessions>Start Up Programs, see if Network Manager is checked | 05:46 |
| Kyan | it's just gdm.conf | 05:46 |
| webpirate | what if I dont' want to use compiz all the time? | 05:46 |
| sam55 | kyan: close that one and open gdm.conf-custom | 05:46 |

| Exilant | webpirate: So messing around is probably quite complicated | 05:47 |
| webpirate | so I can use KDM for normal stuff and then XGL for showing off | 05:47 |

| Jordan_U_ | Pownties, You don't need to re-install | 05:48 |
| sam55 | kyan: so you installed Doe-GDM theme, eh? | 05:48 |
| Exilant | webpirate: the easiest way is probably de/reinstalling xgl and changing /etc/environment | 05:48 |
| Jordan_U_ | Pownties, Just update to the final | 05:48 |
| Pownties | I have a "Fair Access Policy" that limits me to 200 MBs per 24 hours , and only 3 hours of unlimited usage a day. | 05:48 |
| Kyan | so i change GraphicalTheme=Doe-GDM for GraphicalTheme=Human ??? | 05:48 |
| webpirate | it's really strange because the Nvidia logo show up but then nvidia-settings says driver is not loaded.... | 05:48 |
| Pownties | ok | 05:48 |
| sam55 | kyan, yes. | 05:48 |
| Exilant | or relying on the fallback of compiz | 05:48 |
| webpirate | but if I uninstall XGL everything is fine.. | 05:48 |
| Kyan | ok | 05:48 |
| Pownties | "Please Note: The cd images for Fluxbuntu 7.10 have not been published yet" | 05:49 |
| sam55 | kyan, your line should read GraphicalTheme=Human | 05:49 |
| Pownties | There went that | 05:49 |
| ebirtaid | wow | 05:49 |
| webpirate | see...here is my real problem.... | 05:49 |
| Kyan | ok I saved the file | 05:49 |
| linuxn00b314 | I just installed gutsy, and after booting and seeing "Kernel alive...", I'd just get a blank screen...for more than 5 minutes now... | 05:49 |

| sam55 | kyan: okay, try rebooting and see if all works. | 05:51 |
| Kyan | with all the options | 05:51 |
| Exilant | webpirate: Well, so far I have no problems with open software, but ge and eagle and other proprietary stuff doesn't really work | 05:51 |
| webpirate | for example...samsing has a really cool mpeg player...but it will only work with windows media player...so I am not buying it... | 05:51 |
| Kyan | could u write it again please | 05:51 |
| linuxn00b314 | I just installed gutsy, and after booting and seeing "kernel alive...", I get a blank screen, for more than 5 minutes now...Can someone help please | 05:51 |
| sam55 | kyan: that mount command is "mount -t auto /dev/sda3 /<dir name>" where <dir name> is a path to any empty directory. | 05:51 |

| sam55 | kyan: I made you do in mnt just because we put our mount points in /mnt (or in /media). But the moutn point can be anywhere. | 05:54 |

| Madpilot | ir0nfusion, cedega isn't in Ubuntu because cedega is payware. | 06:41 |

| Sir_Sid | Ok Thanks | 06:44 |

| ir0nfusion | to install itunes, do i need to copy any files or anything? | 06:45 |
| UberSprode | CubeXombi: if by restricted you mean proprietary, then yes, I beleive that was the last thing I was able to do, after I did that I tried reverting back to the one that ubuntu installed with, but that didn't seem to work entirely | 06:45 |

| schnoodles | hello does anyone know what grub comes with gibbon, is it grub 1 or 2 ? | 06:49 |
| encoded|lap | hi | 06:49 |
| Jordan_U_ | schnoodles, 1 | 06:49 |
| scguy318 | schnoodles: 1 | 06:49 |
| galvez | If I do ifconfig shouldn't wlan0 show up with an hardware address regardless of it connects with my router or not? | 06:49 |
| Jordan_U_ | schnoodles, Grub 2 is not final yet | 06:49 |
| encoded|lap | im getting the following error try to run "compiz" http://rafb.net/p/1avTJf94.html | 06:49 |
| Colt7r | i think is the 1 | 06:49 |
| schnoodles | ahh ok, because for some reason grub1 isnt working for me | 06:49 |
| scguy318 | galvez: a MAC address yes | 06:49 |
| ir0nfusion | scguy318: yes it can... I have seen people confirm it | 06:49 |
| Jordan_U_ | schnoodles, But grub2 is installable | 06:49 |
| galvez | Scguy318 - thats odd I don't get one | 06:49 |
| schnoodles | grub picks up my ubuntu and XP and i can boot my XP but when i try to boot ubuntu it says something about wrong partition location | 06:50 |
| schnoodles | anyone ever run into that | 06:50 |
| scguy318 | ir0nfusion: lemme check the AppDb, my knowledge might be dated | 06:50 |

| schnoodles | Jordan_U, have you ever run into that problem. Do you think it could be a better idea to install grub2 ? | 06:51 |
| KEEAN | i was bounced cuase i pasted a large text | 06:51 |
| KEEAN | :P | 06:51 |
| sam55 | keean: use pastebin.com for that. | 06:51 |
| UberSprode | CubeXombi: it lets me turn the secondary monitor on but don't have a TV to test it with so I don't know if it would actually work | 06:51 |
| KEEAN | whats that | 06:51 |
| scguy318 | ir0nfusion: ah, I see it does | 06:51 |
| scguy318 | ir0nfusion: not completely but works | 06:51 |
| CubeXombi | <UberSprode>k cool ... i just wanted to double check | 06:52 |
| sam55 | keean: it is awebsite where you can paste text file and it will give you a temporary URL which you paste here. Users here can then view the URL to view your text. | 06:52 |
| Madpilot | ubot3, pastebin | KEEAN | 06:52 |
| ubot3 | KEEAN: 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) | 06:52 |
| ir0nfusion | now to find a instruction thing | 06:52 |
| CyberAgeVoodoo | Hello | 06:52 |
| galvez | when I do ifconfig I only get eth0 and lo, wan0 does not pop up until I click on one of the ssid's in the network connect wondow | 06:52 |
| ir0nfusion | wine wont install it with wine opening it | 06:52 |
| KEEAN | ok | 06:52 |
| galvez | thats odd itsn't it? | 06:52 |
| scguy318 | ir0nfusion: what version? | 06:52 |
| Flynsarm1 | I put my ubuntu DVD in the dvd drive and hte icon appears on my desktop but when i right click and click 'Copy Disc' an error pops up saying 'Unable to create CD/DVD. The specified device "/dev/scd0" is not a valid CD/DVD drive'. The DVD works because i used it to install ubuntu and heaps of packages...Any suggestions? | 06:52 |
| scguy318 | ir0nfusion: of Wine | 06:52 |
| sam55 | keean: anyway, you used "+t" in your mount command. You need to use "-t" instead. | 06:52 |
| Jordan_U_ | galvez, Yes, it is | 06:52 |
| ir0nfusion | newest one downloaded | 06:52 |
| disinterested | is there any software to edit down a video.iso file? | 06:53 |
| scguy318 | ir0nfusion: Feisty or Gutsy? | 06:53 |
| scguy318 | ir0nfusion: and what repo? | 06:53 |
| curi0 | Jordan_U_: What's the different between me using apt-purge or apt-get remove? | 06:53 |
| ir0nfusion | gutsy | 06:53 |
| curi0 | difference* | 06:53 |
| encoded|lap | scguy318, sorry i must be stupid i cant find where to download it | 06:53 |
| CyberAgeVoodoo | anyone have any success installing truecrypt? | 06:53 |
| scguy318 | curi0: purge removes config files | 06:53 |
| scguy318 | encoded|lap: sudo apt-get install xserver-xgl | 06:53 |
| curi0 | Alright | 06:53 |
| scguy318 | encoded|lap: you'll have to tweak files after that | 06:53 |
| galvez | could the lack of a MAC be caused by a driver issue, or is it more likely a bad network card? | 06:53 |
| curi0 | scguy318: Thank you greatly! | 06:53 |
| scguy318 | curi0: np | 06:53 |
| scguy318 | ir0nfusion: ah, 0.9.46 | 06:54 |
| lardarse | if i want to manually add an image to /usr/share/pixmaps, what is the command i need to use so that it will diplay correctly? | 06:54 |
| LinuxInsid1 | i dont like tweak | 06:54 |
| scguy318 | ir0nfusion: what was the error anyway? | 06:54 |
| detra | Which program is it that is supposed to be better than vmware ? | 06:54 |
| Jordan_U_ | curi0, apt-get remove --purge also removes configuration files | 06:54 |
| scguy318 | detra: VirtualBox | 06:54 |
| KEEAN | http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/42327/ | 06:54 |
| detra | scguy318, thx | 06:54 |
| jiam | galvez-> it constantly happens or one time? | 06:54 |
| ir0nfusion | scguy318: that I needed either mac or windows. | 06:54 |
| LinuxInsid1 | virtualBox is btter | 06:54 |
| scguy318 | KEEAN: you already got the answer, use -t :P | 06:54 |
| galvez | Jiam - all the time | 06:54 |
| Dr_willis | lardarse, just copy it over.. You will need root permissiosn to copy to that directory - since its not owned by the user. | 06:55 |

| scguy318 | CyberAgeVoodoo: ive never used it but I might be able to help | 06:56 |
| Dr_willis | lardarse, check that dir. see what other permissions are on the other openable files. You may need to chmod the file you copied. Since it kept its original permissions | 06:56 |
| CyberAgeVoodoo | i try to find the file but can't find the package | 06:56 |

| LinuxInsid1 | sudo apt-get install mygod | 06:56 |
| lardarse | Dr_willis: what's the correct chmod for -rw-r--r-- ? | 06:56 |
| scguy318 | lardarse: 644? | 06:56 |
| keitherz | 777 | 06:57 |
| LinuxInsid1 | chmod 644 | 06:57 |
| scguy318 | CyberAgeVoodoo: all your repos enabled? | 06:57 |
| jiam | galvez-> its possible it could be bad, you can set the mac address and see if it takes it | 06:57 |
| Jordan_U_ | CyberAgeVoodoo, Do you have all of the repositories enabled in System -> Administration -> Software Sources? | 06:57 |
| keitherz | so no fighting 777 | 06:57 |
| LinuxInsid1 | chmod 644 -rw-r--r-- | 06:57 |
| galvez | jiam - how do I set the mac? | 06:57 |
| curi0 | Is commenting a line the same as it not being in the file? I assume yes as commenting makes the parser skip the line. | 06:57 |
| sam55 | keean: ?? | 06:57 |
| keitherz | it 644 | 06:57 |
| scguy318 | curi0: in what? | 06:57 |
| jiam | galvez-> man ip | 06:57 |
| Dr_willis | lardarse, i always have to cheat and use 'mc' :) | 06:57 |
| keitherz | its 644 -rw-r-r-- | 06:57 |
| scguy318 | curi0: in general yes | 06:57 |

| CyberAgeVoodoo | Package dmsetup is not available, but is referred to by another package. | 06:58 |

| CyberAgeVoodoo | E: Package dmsetup has no installation candidate | 06:58 |

| locke | Prerequisite States i need "The full kernel sources, properly installed and matched to the version upon which the driver will be run." How do I make sure I have the correct sources locally? | 06:58 |
| scguy318 | CyberAgeVoodoo: all your repos enabled? | 06:58 |

| LinuxInsid1 | r(4) w(2) x(1) | 06:58 |
| CyberAgeVoodoo | will check | 06:58 |
| curi0 | scguy318: The reason I asked that question is because I'm following directions that state to comment out Load "DRI". However, in my xorg.conf it isn't there at all and I was wondering if I should add it and comment it out. | 06:58 |

| Bonste1 | wats the right setting for k3b burning? my Disc not loading after i burned it | 07:01 |
| Madpilot | ir0nfusion, the whole computer suddenly hard freezing is likely a hardware issue. Bad RAM, borked motherboard, something fun like that. | 07:01 |
| locke | scguy318: appreciate it! | 07:01 |
| scguy318 | Bonste1: slower the better for burn speed I guess? | 07:01 |
| scguy318 | locke: np | 07:01 |
| linuxnoob | Bonste1: is it just a data disk? | 07:01 |
| ToddEDM | hey guys, what would i use to get widgets on my desktop? | 07:01 |
| scguy318 | ToddEDM: applets? right click the panel, add to panel | 07:01 |
| Bonste1 | yes data DVD | 07:01 |
| linuxnoob | ToddEDM: gdesklets? | 07:01 |
| Bonste1 | it burned fine | 07:01 |
| Bonste1 | just is not loading | 07:01 |
| CubeXombi | <UberSprode> No sweat.. i had to go on a good hunt .. ATI Dropped support for out GPU's on the latest restricted driver.. This one however looks to be working quite nicely as long as it's done right | 07:01 |
| ir0nfusion | Madpilot: first off this is a new machine, second i have 2gigs ram... third my hardware supports it. | 07:01 |
| scguy318 | ir0nfusion: but have you done memtest or anything like that? | 07:02 |
| keitherz | . | 07:02 |
| keitherz | . | 07:02 |
| scguy318 | ir0nfusion: new machines can have problems too | 07:02 |
| ir0nfusion | fourth, my machine still works, my mouse is what freezes. | 07:02 |
| Bonste1 | do i have to make is jolet file type? | 07:02 |
| Madpilot | ir0nfusion, when my current machine was 3 weeks old, the motherboard packed it in. New hardware is MORE likely to fail - manufacturing defects... | 07:02 |
| scguy318 | Bonste1: dont think so | 07:02 |
| Madpilot | ir0nfusion, do keyboard commands still work after the mouse freezes? | 07:03 |
| linuxnoob | Bonste1: have you tried reading it on another computer? | 07:03 |
| ToddEDM | i want , the weather, and i want a big clock on my desktop... is that gdesklets? | 07:03 |
| CyberAgeVoodoo | thank you it's working now | 07:03 |
| scguy318 | CyberAgeVoodoo: np | 07:03 |
| linuxnoob | Bonste1: also - are you sure you are mounting the dvd correctly? | 07:03 |
| ir0nfusion | Madpilot: no but my touchpad light goes red/blue when I hit the button | 07:03 |
| Madpilot | ToddEDM, there's a panel weather app | 07:03 |
| Bonste1 | my drives automounts | 07:03 |
| Bonste1 | i tryed other disc | 07:03 |
| linuxnoob | ToddEDM: yes (as far as I recall) | 07:03 |
| Bonste1 | those automounts | 07:03 |
| KEEAN | sam55, do you know the option instead of "ExplorerPS/2" | 07:04 |
| scguy318 | ToddEDM: if you want a radar pic, theres a way to have the applet fetch from NOAA | 07:04 |
| KEEAN | it was something different | 07:04 |
| sam55 | keean: hold on. | 07:04 |
| ToddEDM | coolk | 07:04 |
| ir0nfusion | I think it's because of my damn logitech mouse. | 07:04 |
| Madpilot | ir0nfusion, if the machine isn't accepting any inputs, it's frozen. In linux, that sort of hard freeze is more than likely hardware. linux just doesn't freeze like that on it's own.... | 07:04 |

| sam55 | keean: "ImPS/2" perhaps? | 07:05 |
| LinuxInsid1 | but u'd better not write NTSF file system | 07:05 |
| Kousotu | scguy318: not last I tried | 07:05 |
| scguy318 | Kousotu: you have to cleanly dismount the ext3 mount tho | 07:05 |
| KEEAN | yes it was that!!!!! | 07:05 |
| sam55 | keean: this is just a guess, but could be anything else. | 07:05 |
| scguy318 | Kousotu: *partition | 07:05 |
| lardarse | Kousotu: yes | 07:05 |
| KEEAN | "ImPS/2" | 07:05 |
| Madpilot | ir0nfusion, how old is the machine? what other OSes have you tried on it? | 07:05 |
| KEEAN | CubeXombi, Im gonna try to undo myself, and if that doesnt work then ill do what u suggest | 07:05 |
| scguy318 | LinuxInsid1: no such filesystem :P | 07:05 |
| Kousotu | LinuxInsid1: had no issues with writing yet | 07:05 |
| scguy318 | LinuxInsid1: NTFS-3G is very much stable | 07:06 |
| ir0nfusion | it's from july, not that old.. and I have tried mint (never froze) pclinuxos (froze like a bitch) ubuntu 7.04 and 6. never froze either. | 07:06 |
| tarelerulz | Kousotu , I use kernel driver for ext3 for windows all the time and it can do write and reading | 07:06 |
| ToddEDM | cool that applet is nice and small... i like , THANK YOU guys | 07:06 |
| heatman | scguy318: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/42331/ | 07:06 |
| Kousotu | it's when you try to MOVE ext3 you have issues..... | 07:06 |
| KEEAN | sam55. is there a problem if there are double quotes! I think that was the problem! | 07:06 |
| sam55 | keean: yes, double quotes should be there | 07:07 |
| KEEAN | Option"Protocol"""ExplorerPS/2"" | 07:07 |
| Dr_willis | Kousotu, problem with XP reading/writing ext3 usign that ifs driver. is that if windows crashes. it can leave the ext3 in a bad state. so linux has to check it at the next boot. | 07:07 |
| levander | If I right-click on an image in Firefox and say "Set Image as Background", where does the image go on the filesystem? I can't find the file that I'm currently using as my background on the filesystem. | 07:07 |
| taz | anybody good with xorg.conf? I'm trying to get my nvidia card to show the same desktop on two different outputs at 1680x1050 and keep running into misc problems.. | 07:07 |
| Dr_willis | !ext3 | 07:07 |
| ubot3 | 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 | 07:07 |
| KEEAN | i have it that way | 07:07 |
| CubeXombi | <UberSprode> any luck? | 07:07 |
| ir0nfusion | I bet you it's damn kde Madpilot I tried installing amarok the other day and before that i never froze. | 07:07 |
| heartsblood | what application normally manages the system tray in gnome? | 07:07 |
| Kousotu | Dr_willis: well the same applies to resizing NTFS wia linux | 07:07 |
| KEEAN | double quotes SHOULD be there? | 07:07 |
| Kousotu | via* | 07:07 |
| sam55 | keean: so the line should be (in my case): Option "Protocol" "ImPS/2" | 07:07 |
| KEEAN | ok | 07:08 |
| snadge | can someone tell me what to do if gutsy wont boot on a pentium D system with an 8800gts.. either normal or in safe graphics mode, just constantly beeps out the pc speaker.. but works fine in windows? | 07:08 |
| Kousotu | anyone git a link to the win-ext3 driver? | 07:08 |
| scguy318 | snadge: try installing with alternate CD? | 07:08 |
| Jordan_U_ | snadge, Have you tried the alternate install CD? | 07:08 |
| galvez | jian ip link does not let me set the MAC | 07:08 |
| inversekinetix | i have 8800gts 640 and it works great | 07:08 |
| Johnson | where do you got to change icons? | 07:08 |
| Dr_willis | Kousotu, resizing it a bit more complex then just read/writing to it. :) its somthign to watch out for with the www.fs-driver.org stuff. I had windows crash badly and it trashed a ext3 partion VERY badly. :) ive leared to mount them in windows.. copy the stuff over then unmount them quickly | 07:08 |
| Johnson | !icons | 07:09 |
| ubot3 | Want to see volume/trash icons on the desktop? Go to /apps/nautilus/desktop in gconf-editor (Gnome) or go to http://kudos.berlios.de/kf/kisimlar/tipsntrix.html#showtrash (KDE) | 07:09 |
| snadge | ok i will try alternate cd.. thanks :) | 07:09 |
| scguy318 | heatman: still there? | 07:09 |
| scguy318 | heatman: ive found a suggestion | 07:09 |
| joseph | Anybody had any luck with compiz on a ATI Mobile Radion 200? | 07:09 |
| heatman | scguy318: yes sir | 07:09 |
| scguy318 | heatman: do sudo /etc/init.d/acpid stop | 07:09 |
| CubeXombi | joseph HAHAHAH!! you are inluck | 07:09 |
| KEEAN | sam55, im gonna save and give it a try | 07:09 |
| heartsblood | if I wanted to disable the system tray so another application could use it, how would I do it? | 07:09 |
| KenSentMe | Kousotu, i cant give a link because im on mobile, but google for ext3fs | 07:09 |
| KEEAN | wish me good luck | 07:09 |
| scguy318 | heatman: then sudo dpkg --configure acpid | 07:09 |
| sam55 | keean: good luck!! | 07:09 |
| KEEAN | :) | 07:09 |
| scguy318 | heatman: then do the old sudo dpkg --configure -a | 07:09 |
| lardarse | Kousotu: there is an alternative way... create a folder on your ntfs partition, then create a symlink to it on your ext3 partition... then just copy stuff into that symlink and they appear in your ntfs partition i the folder | 07:10 |
| CubeXombi | joseph: I can get you a link with VERY besic instructions | 07:10 |
| Kousotu | ext2ifs-0.3 < that one | 07:10 |
| Kousotu | ? | 07:10 |
| KEEAN | if this doesnt work im gonna try to automatic configure thingy | 07:10 |
| h0n3s1 | Mike05_: I had some problem with kernel 22 and all things work fine with kernel 20! | 07:10 |
| sam55 | keean: yes. | 07:10 |
| tarelerulz | I am trying to download some stuff with a bit torrent client and I can't share and I need a bit torrent client that you can just set it for two ports for out going and incoming connects and not a rang . My router don't do ranges | 07:10 |
| KEEAN | see you on Gutsy!!!!!! (i hope) | 07:10 |
| linuxnoob | test | 07:10 |
| CubeXombi | joseph: however the new drivers dropped supprot for our cards. | 07:10 |
| lardarse | KEEAN: good luck | 07:10 |
| sam55 | keean: for future: *always* make a backup of a system file you are doing to edit | 07:10 |
| nickrud | joseph: I had it running, but it was very bad, I returned to ati | 07:10 |
| joseph | CubeXombi I can't get it to work with the restricted drivers | 07:11 |
| scguy318 | tarelerulz: just do say 55555-55555 thats a range but one port :P | 07:11 |
| Johnson | where do i go to change my icon set? | 07:11 |
| Kousotu | lardarse: I have 3 NTFS partions | 07:11 |
| CubeXombi | joseph, It's not supposed to work thats why.. | 07:11 |
| nickrud | Johnson: system->preferences->appearance | 07:11 |
| heatman | scguy318: lol as simple as that huh? tyvm | 07:11 |
| scguy318 | tarelerulz: you shouldnt have to set port for outgoing I think | 07:11 |
| lardarse | Kousotu: windows can access all 3, right? | 07:11 |
| joseph | It's a laptop so I guess if it is a major pain I'll survive without | 07:11 |
| scguy318 | heatman: np | 07:11 |
| Kousotu | lardarse: XP, Vista, 1GB storage | 07:11 |
| Madpilot | Johnson, System->Prefs->Appearance | 07:11 |
| joseph | It worked flawless in pclos | 07:11 |
| CubeXombi | joseph however there are things that need to be done to enable aiglx with the radeo driver in our case.. works pretty good | 07:12 |
| Kousotu | lardarse: of course | 07:12 |
| schoonix | hello where is menu.lst stored ? | 07:12 |
| schoonix | for gibbon | 07:12 |
| scguy318 | schoonix: /boot/grub | 07:12 |
| Johnson | hmmm i went there didnt see anything specifally for icons tho | 07:12 |
| Johnson | it used to be there i thought | 07:12 |
| lardarse | Kousotu: then it shouldn't particularly matter which partition you're sending the files to | 07:12 |
| schoonix | scguy318 i dont seem to have a grub folder in boot. Do i need to do anything to get it ? | 07:12 |
| Madpilot | Johnson, then hit the Customize button if you only want to change icon themes | 07:12 |
| lardarse | as long s that partition is big enough | 07:12 |
| joseph | What I'd rather fix than compiz is the darn no boot splash screen problem | 07:12 |
| CubeXombi | joseph: I just scribbled this up for someone with a 9800 but it applies to you http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/42330/ | 07:12 |
| Kousotu | lardarse: I want to putthem on the ext3 partion | 07:12 |
| nickrud | Johnson: it still is, select customize on the themes tab | 07:13 |
| Johnson | no. because u can't add in customize | 07:13 |
| === xxxx is now known as beebee | ||
| CubeXombi | joseph, as far as the nosplash.. I can sorta fix it .. if you're refering to the 3+ minute boot time | 07:13 |
| scguy318 | schoonix: no, dont think you should, weird | 07:13 |
| linuxnoob | schoonix: are you using grub? how do you not have /boot/grub? | 07:13 |
| lardarse | Kousotu: you should just be able to navigate through the ntfs partitions anc copy the files to somewhere (~/Desktop is often easiest) | 07:13 |
| inversekinetix | anyone have luck installing Oblivion into wine? | 07:13 |
| lardarse | and then move them where they belong after that | 07:13 |
| schoonix | linuxnoob no idea its wierd | 07:13 |
| scguy318 | inversekinetix: dont have it but never tried, but lemme link you to the Wine AppDb | 07:13 |
| schoonix | and when i reboot grub shws up :\ | 07:13 |
| lardarse | or just access them directly | 07:14 |
| Madpilot | Johnson, download your theme to Desktop; open the Appearance window, drop your new icon theme archive in. Then it'll appear in Customize | 07:14 |
| DanThirst | inversekinetix: think it would better to just grab VMware server | 07:14 |
| galvez | jian are you still there? | 07:14 |
| Johnson | thanks Madpilot | 07:14 |
| inversekinetix | whats that DanThirst? | 07:14 |
| DanThirst | emulates windows | 07:14 |
| joseph | Cube I have to hit ALT f1 then I can see boot info even if it is text | 07:14 |
| cyros | if you guys were gonna build a linux file server and mostly all windows boxes were going to access it would you make a NTFS and mount it using G3 or EXT2/3 and install ext ifs for all the windows boxes | 07:15 |
| scguy318 | inversekinetix: AppDb link: http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iVersionId=4596&iTestingId=2711 keeping in mind that the test results are very dated | 07:15 |
| inversekinetix | DanThirst, is it fast and where | 07:15 |
| scguy318 | inversekinetix: what is the difficulty that you are experiencing? | 07:15 |
| DanThirst | i didn't have much with luck with wine, it doesn't do very well with graphic intensive operations | 07:15 |
| linuxnoob | are you sure you are looking in /boot and not ~/boot or something like that? | 07:15 |
| scguy318 | cyros: if the Windows boxes are accessing the Linux file server over the network it doesnt matter what file system the Linux file server has | 07:15 |
| DanThirst | inversekinetix: well you still have to have a copy of windows, so doesn't help much | 07:15 |
| cyros | u can just use samba right? | 07:15 |
| schoonix | scguy318: or linuxnoob any ideas what i could try | 07:15 |
| scguy318 | cyros: yes | 07:15 |
| cyros | thanks | 07:16 |
| CubeXombi | joseph: as far as thats concerned it's just that the usplash kinda craps out on this V-card it appears.. so what you can do is take a look at my /etc/grub/menu.lst and take off the junk at the end.. | 07:16 |
| scguy318 | DanThirst: might be your video driver, Wine does my games real well :P | 07:16 |
| linuxn00b314 | does anyone know what the splash option in the boot menu means | 07:16 |
| scguy318 | linuxn00b314: means it shows the whole Ubuntu splash thing | 07:16 |
| inversekinetix | scguy318: I tried installing it into wine and it wouldnt load the game, only the menus, as soon as the game started it crashed, it wouldnt let me uninstall the game either, ended up breaking my DVD | 07:16 |
| tarelerulz | Kousotu if you still listening I use that kernel driver for windows that read/write to ntfs works 90% ,but sometimes it don't work and it will ask you to format at the drive/partition . The only thing you can do is reinstall the driver and reboot windows and maybe it will read it right . I had to reinstall it and config it again and reboot windows couple and it just worked out of the blue | 07:17 |
| CubeXombi | joseph> check out my menu.lst http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/42324/ my laptop boots in about 43 seconds now .. the splash is gone but there's no delay | 07:17 |
| scguy318 | inversekinetix: if you ran from Terminal any errors of interest? | 07:17 |
| webpirate | does anyone know why compiz-fusion is looking for XGl when I have Nvidia card? | 07:17 |
| linuxn00b314 | scguy318: can you be morespecific? | 07:17 |
| scguy318 | tarelerulz: thats not how you handle it | 07:17 |
| tarelerulz | I mean ext3 not ntfs | 07:17 |
| scguy318 | tarelerulz: that happens because you didn't cleanly dismount the ext3 partition | 07:17 |
| scguy318 | tarelerulz: have to boot up Linux and shutdown cleanly | 07:17 |
| webpirate | does anyone know why compiz-fusion is looking for XGl when I have Nvidia card? | 07:17 |
| linuxn00b314 | does anyone know what the splash option in the boot menu means? | 07:18 |
| linuxnoob | linuxn00b314: are you talking about the install cd? | 07:18 |
| scguy318 | linuxn00b314: gives you the Ubuntu splash? like he whole pretty progress bar thing? | 07:18 |
| summer_s4 | does anyone know of a gnome based iso creater? I need to be able to modify iso images without having to burn them to a disk | 07:18 |
| galvez | can anyone help me with my wireless? I can't get ti to connect | 07:18 |
| linuxnoob | summer_s4: gnomebaker | 07:18 |
| inversekinetix | scguy381: i did it with the commands on their homepage, without error | 07:18 |
| tarelerulz | I am talking about windows ext3 driver. That is how I got it to work again . If that is not the best way I will listen for a better one | 07:18 |
| summer_s4 | galvez: fire away. | 07:18 |
| linuxn00b314 | oh, so the splash thing is the progress bar? | 07:18 |
| summer_s4 | galvez: i can help | 07:18 |
| DanThirst | hmm i tested out MTGO (uses blink video player to do its animations) with wine and it played like crud, went and installed VMware server and then an emulation of xpProSP2 and its running fine | 07:18 |
| CubeXombi | <linuxn00b314>it's the "Ubuntu" Loading screan.. if you boot and all you get is black.. you should remove that | 07:18 |
| rayne3rr01 | is there any docs on upgrading from 6.06 to 7.10 | 07:18 |
| scguy318 | interversekinetix: but were there any messages in the Terminal that were of diagnostic interest? | 07:19 |
| webpirate | does anyone know why compiz-fusion is looking for XGl when I have Nvidia card? | 07:19 |
| linuxnoob | galvez: do you know what module to use? | 07:19 |
| inversekinetix | scguy381: none | 07:19 |
| linuxn00b314 | kk, well, I removed that, and I still get a black screen | 07:19 |
| DanThirst | unfurntly i some how disabled my internet connection when the battery went dead on it though | 07:19 |
| schoonix | is thr normal ubuntu cd a live cd or not ? | 07:19 |
| cyros | webpirate: i think for the nvid cards you have to use the restricted drivers | 07:19 |
| scguy318 | schoonix: its a LiveCD | 07:19 |
| schoonix | because i dont seem to have /boot/grub :\ | 07:19 |
| summer_s4 | rayne3rr01: dosn't look like there is. If you used lts, looks like you gotta stay with lts | 07:19 |
| cyros | the ATI cards i believe work straight out the box | 07:19 |
| linuxn00b314 | I had to remove fglrx...why is fglrx causing the black screen? | 07:19 |
| CubeXombi | <linuxn00b314> just a flasking cursor? | 07:19 |
| scguy318 | schoonix: are you running off LiveCD? | 07:19 |
| linuxnoob | schoonix: weird. no idea | 07:19 |
| cyros | schoonix: what are you trying to do | 07:19 |
| linuxn00b314 | I dont even get a flashing cursor | 07:19 |
| CubeXombi | linuxn00b314>what video card you have? | 07:19 |
| schoonix | cryos find my menu.lst | 07:19 |
| linuxn00b314 | radeon x1950pro | 07:20 |
| linuxnoob | scguy318: that's a good possiblility! | 07:20 |
| galvez | summer_s4 Thanks when I click on my ssid in the network applet, it hangs for a while and then finally asks me for a pasword, which i enter and then after a few minutes, it just pops up again asking for the password again | 07:20 |
| c0mp13371331337 | Hey inversekinetix, any luck with deluge? | 07:20 |
| scguy318 | schoonix: are you running off LiveCD? | 07:20 |
| rayne3rr01 | so should i just start over with a new install | 07:20 |
| schoonix | i have grub working atm on my computer but it says that my ubuntu is in the wrong partition location | 07:20 |
| cyros | schoonix: you trying to fix something in a harddrive install? | 07:20 |
| schoonix | or something | 07:20 |
| schoonix | scguy318: i am just using the normal ubuntu download and not the alternative cd | 07:20 |
| webpirate | I have all drivers installed properly....full opengl.. | 07:20 |
| schoonix | cyros i am just trying to get grub actually find ubuntu | 07:20 |
| linuxnoob | schoonix: this is important - is your linux box installed on the hd? or are you running off a live cd? | 07:20 |
| CubeXombi | linuxn00b314> take a look at my menu.lst, i don't get a splash but at least i can see whats going on | 07:20 |
| inversekinetix | c0mp13371331337: tried deluge, I like ktorrent better for now thanks, I really wanna get uTorrent working | 07:21 |
| paulistall | has anyone found a theme like more then human because I haven't | 07:21 |
| schoonix | its installed on my box, but i cant access it | 07:21 |
| paulistall | most of the themes out there are ass | 07:21 |
| scguy318 | inversekinetix: running it on Wine shouldn't be difficult, what version of Wine are you using anyway? | 07:21 |
| CubeXombi | linuxn00b314> check out my menu.lst http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/42324/ m | 07:21 |
| cyros | i think your going to have to mount your harddrive and check the filesystem on there | 07:21 |
| webpirate | XGl is just for ATI cards right? | 07:21 |
| summer_s4 | galvez: you have to set it up by system-admin-network, and restart your computer. I have had that be the only way to make it work for me. Novell didn't produce quality products. | 07:21 |
| CubeXombi | joseph, that working for ya? | 07:21 |
| scguy318 | webpirate: yeah, Nvidia drivers can do AIGLX | 07:21 |
| schoonix | but im running off the install cd atm because i cant axs it | 07:21 |
| erichj | ubuntu studio theme is pretty slick | 07:21 |
| paulistall | erichj: where do you get that | 07:21 |
| inversekinetix | scguy: 9.46 | 07:22 |
| webpirate | very strange.....compiz will only work with XGL installed | 07:22 |
| schoonix | linuxnoob: any idea's what could be the problem ? | 07:22 |
| paulistall | i'm using a compiz theme for my window borders | 07:22 |
| scguy318 | schoonix: mount your Ubuntu partition, it should be on /media/blahblah, your menu.lst is on /media/blahblah/boot/grub/menu.lst I think? | 07:22 |
| cyros | schoonix: u need the filesystem of the harddrive install and not the live cd | 07:22 |
| summer_s4 | galvez: welll... let me re-word that. They want money so they try to hit you back with stupid things | 07:22 |
| erichj | paulistall, sudo apt-get install ubuntustudio-desktop | 07:22 |
| webpirate | I have Nvidia 7800gs | 07:22 |
| linuxnoob | schoonix: okay... so your actual /boot will be somewhere else | 07:22 |
| Rolf_LAP_Skaar | Pegasus | 07:22 |
| webpirate | everything is fine in KDE... | 07:22 |
| paulistall | erichj: thanks | 07:22 |
| webpirate | FPs > 5000 | 07:22 |
| erichj | welcome | 07:22 |
| c0mp13371331337 | inversekinetix, I definitely agree that ktorrent is better. One of the only KDE apps that I haven't been able to find a better gnome alternative for. Good luck with uTorrent, haven't tried it but I've heard good things! | 07:22 |
| scguy318 | inversekinetix: yeah uTorrent should not be a problem at all, I got it to work on here | 07:22 |
| LinuxInsid1 | webpirate: everything is fine in KDE... ????? | 07:22 |
| webpirate | I use freeloader for torrents | 07:22 |
| schoonix | ahh ok will it be in the sda* which has my install ? | 07:22 |
| LinuxInsid1 | i dont think so | 07:22 |
| inversekinetix | schoonix try try WinGrub if windows is on your box | 07:23 |
| linuxnoob | schoonix: you are getting warmer | 07:23 |
| galvez | summer_s4 - on I have the system-admin-network open, do I change the wireless from roam to fixed and enter all the stuff manually? | 07:23 |
| scguy318 | schoonix: yep | 07:23 |
| chris_ | <3 7.10 | 07:23 |
| webpirate | yes....everything fine in KDE screensavers are fine and glxgears it 5000 fps....but compiz won't work unless I install xgl | 07:23 |
| inversekinetix | scguy: everything should be easy but Im still new to linux | 07:23 |
| schoonix | only problem is i cant remember which one ubuntu is on i have sda 1 2 3 5 6 lol | 07:23 |
| schoonix | is there any easy way to find out ? | 07:23 |
| linuxnoob | schoonix: when you use a live cd, /dev/hdc (or whatever your cd drive) - becomes your root directory... | 07:23 |
| summer_s4 | galvez: roam to fixed, don't type in ip address unless it is static, and type in passwords (correct types) | 07:23 |
| inversekinetix | schoonix, does windows boot? | 07:23 |
| PurpZeY | Can any suggest a reason why I'd switch to Gutsy, if I have feisty installed and working w/ compiz? | 07:23 |
| linuxnoob | schoonix: or something like that... | 07:24 |
| KEEAN | sam55, I am in Gutsy!! | 07:24 |
| schoonix | inversekinetix: yes windows boots | 07:24 |
| sam55 | keean: great!! | 07:24 |
| chris_ | PurpZeY, to be cool like everyone else :) | 07:24 |
| scguy318 | PurpZeY: not really, if it aint broke don't fix it :P | 07:24 |
| webpirate | anyone have compiz working without xgl in ubuntu 7.10? | 07:24 |
| galvez | ok I'll give that a try and be right back | 07:24 |
| sam55 | keean: good to know all is well. | 07:24 |
| summer_s4 | purpzey: because it is more stable. | 07:24 |
| nickrud | PurpZeY: not really, if you have a system you're happy with | 07:24 |
| sam55 | keean: for future: *always* make a backup of a system file you are doing to edit | 07:24 |
| cyros | schoonix: fixed it already? | 07:24 |
| riotkittie | PurpZeY: if you have to have somebody give you reason to upgrade, dont do it. | 07:24 |
| linuxnoob | PurpZeY: don't upgrade then | 07:24 |
| KEEAN | I can't believe that just double quotes made me go through all of this | 07:24 |
| inversekinetix | schoonix add the wingrub to your windows installation and it will find any linux on your machine | 07:24 |
| KEEAN | that was myyyy mistake | 07:24 |
| KEEAN | the double quotes | 07:24 |
| PurpZeY | Well, I mean...like someone said, if it ain't broke...etc...On the other hand if there were some benefit I didn't know of.... | 07:24 |
| schoonix | cyros fixed what ? | 07:25 |
| PurpZeY | summer_s4: Stable in what sense? | 07:25 |
| sam55 | keean: you now need to set you gdm theme again. Bu tyou can do this via the GUI now. | 07:25 |
| webpirate | my nvidia drivers are working but dmesg shows nvidia module taints kernel....is that a problem? | 07:25 |
| KEEAN | I did that already | 07:25 |
| summer_s4 | purplez: it is not like windows xp to windows vista. This case, it is good to update. It just lets you get so much easier | 07:25 |
| nickrud | PurpZeY: if you have issues with NetworkManager, upgrade. That's the only real difference for me | 07:25 |
| linuxnoob | PurpZeY: if you upgrade and something breaks - you will be kicking yourself | 07:25 |
| scguy318 | webpirate: no | 07:25 |
| sam55 | keean: okay, I am off to bed now. G'night and good luck. | 07:25 |
| KEEAN | Thank you soooooooo much sam55 | 07:25 |
| cyros | schoonix: sorry i misread something | 07:25 |
| summer_s4 | purpzey: though back everything up. | 07:25 |
| vika | hi i am a sabayon user and thinking of changing to ubuntu 7.10, or ultimate which version would u all recommend and includes compiz fusion? | 07:25 |
| PurpZeY | linuxnoob: That is precisely my gear. | 07:25 |
| scguy318 | webpirate: that's what the Linux kernel does to all modules that are not freely licensed, restrict access to parts of the kernel | 07:25 |
| PurpZeY | fear* | 07:25 |
| webpirate | So then compiz should work without XGl then? | 07:25 |
| sam55 | keean: glad to be of help! | 07:25 |
| inversekinetix | schoonix http://users.bigpond.net.au/hermanzone/p9.html | 07:25 |
| riotkittie | so much easier? its not like previous versions of ubuntu have been difficult. | 07:26 |
| PurpZeY | summer_s4: See, to me, that is not reassuring...Install should be good, benefits are limited, but just in case back everything up | 07:26 |
| scguy318 | webpirate: hopefully yes | 07:26 |
| webpirate | has anyone tried it? | 07:26 |
| KEEAN | People like you make Ubuntu the best distro | 07:26 |
| vika | hi i am a sabayon user and thinking of changing to ubuntu 7.10, or ultimate which version would u all recommend and includes compiz fusion? | 07:26 |
| webpirate | anyone using nvidia card with compiz WITHOUT XGL? (ubuntu 7.10) | 07:26 |
| schoonix | but if wingrub still using normal grub it still wont work | 07:26 |
| summer_s4 | purpzey: it lets you use more power, uses 2.6.22.x kernal (battery saving fetures built in there) and more | 07:26 |
| PurpZeY | vika: 7.10 has fusion | 07:26 |
| scguy318 | vika: they all include Compiz, 7.10 should be what you want | 07:27 |
| linuxnoob | PurpZeY: just *use* your system.. rather than constantly fidgeting with it. Or have a 'sandbox' system that you can get crazy with | 07:27 |
| PurpZeY | summer_s4: What about ACPI things like that? | 07:27 |
| muhammedc | hi guys, im having a problem with keyring after i've upgraded to 7.10 - can anyone help? | 07:27 |
| summer_s4 | purpzey: more support, simplier support | 07:27 |
| PurpZeY | summer_s4: That I have setup previously. . . | 07:27 |
| webpirate | I am on;y asking before I do clean install..... | 07:27 |

| * nickrud will be upgrading to 8.04 in about 8.01 :) | 07:27 | |
| summer_s4 | purpzey: it will keep the same settings | 07:27 |
| schoonix | inversekinetix: my problem is grub isnt picking up my ubuntu lcoation | 07:27 |
| scguy318 | vika: 32-bit, standard | 07:27 |
| detra | how do I get virtualbox to find my video card ? | 07:27 |
| webpirate | no is using compiz-fusion with nvdia card in 7.10? | 07:27 |
| vika | y not 64 | 07:27 |
| inversekinetix | schoonix what is the error youre getting? | 07:28 |
| riotkittie | more support for what? | 07:28 |
| summer_s4 | purpzey: just trust me. It looks cooler | 07:28 |
| scguy318 | vika: some things may not work on it, but 64-bit doesn't hurt, you can go with that if you want | 07:28 |
| nickrud | webpirate: a lot of people, probably some here, but they have no clue about what's wrong with yours (I'm on ati) Wait a bit, see some new nicks and ask again | 07:28 |
| summer_s4 | purpzey: and you want it. end of discussion | 07:28 |
| scguy318 | vika: gutsy's flashplugin-nonfree can deal with 64-bit | 07:28 |
| webpirate | I am thinking about doing clean install.......anyone have any tips about the nvidia compiz thing? | 07:28 |
| riotkittie | it looks the same as feisty. | 07:28 |
| vika | i jst wanna it to run smooth | 07:28 |
| webpirate | ok I will wait a bit | 07:29 |
| scguy318 | vika: 64-bit if you want | 07:29 |
| c0Ld | does anyone know of a cpu temperature reader that works with MSI boards? in windows I use something called 'corecell' | 07:29 |
| PurpZeY | summer_s4: I don't know that I want it, but I can't really figure what it is it brings me..I mean, if I could do it, without any problem whatsoever, I would...but there seems to be a risk involved...setting up hardware...I am not being argumentative, I am just trying to figure out what's best | 07:29 |
| scguy318 | c0LD: lm-sensors? | 07:29 |
| scguy318 | c0LD: and sensors-applet | 07:29 |
| webpirate | Calling all Nvidia users using compiz-fusion...I need to know something about your setup....... | 07:29 |
| vika | will 32bit run quicker and use my core 2 duo | 07:29 |
| nkassi | vika: yes | 07:29 |
| c0Ld | scguy318: that gave me some error about not being able to detect any sensors :/ | 07:30 |
| vika | so 64 is waste | 07:30 |
| scguy318 | c0LD: you need to run sudo sensors-detect I think | 07:30 |
| webpirate | anyone using nvidia card with compiz WITHOUT XGL? (ubuntu 7.10) | 07:30 |
| scguy318 | vika: its not | 07:30 |
| scguy318 | vika: get to use your 64-bit features :P | 07:30 |
| nkassi | vika: probably faster than 64-bit, unless you have over 4GB I wouldn't bother | 07:30 |
| webpirate | gkrellm is really good at finding temperature sensors | 07:30 |
| vika | im so confused i got amd64 | 07:30 |
| c0Ld | scguy318: hm, ill try it again i suppose, one moment | 07:30 |
| linuxnoob | PurpZeY: don't upgrade! it's just eyecandy. not worth it! | 07:30 |
| scguy318 | vika: thats fine | 07:30 |
| vika | oh ok so 32 bit stiill good | 07:30 |
| scguy318 | vika: yes both is fine | 07:30 |
| nkassi | vika: yep | 07:30 |
| vika | usin my system to full | 07:30 |
| riotkittie | PurpZeY: if you dont *know* that you want it, you have no compelling reason/need to upgrade, you have a stable system, and are content with the stability of that system, stick with it. or back your data up, and have at it. | 07:30 |
| scguy318 | vika: theres not much difference other than what nkassi said | 07:31 |

| webpirate | any ideas why? | 07:37 |
| crbrocket | vika: what ubuntu took and made better | 07:37 |
| scguy318 | vika: Debian is a Linux distro which Ubuntu is based upon | 07:37 |
| webpirate | well I am gonna try to do clean install then.....something is not right with my compiz | 07:38 |
| crbrocket | vika: it's a very good distribution but lacks the desktop polish of ubuntu | 07:38 |
| vika | so ubuntu sounds like the best linux version to use | 07:38 |
| scguy318 | vika: sure, a good place to start | 07:38 |
| vika | does it still come with all the programs office and u name it u got it | 07:38 |
| crbrocket | vika: yes, but I'm bias | 07:38 |
| scguy318 | vika: OpenOffice, yes | 07:38 |
| vika | when u mean good place to start whats next | 07:38 |
| omega512 | scguy318, after rebooting with the cd it appears a black screen !! | 07:38 |
| scguy318 | vika: its all in the repos | 07:39 |

| Fishfoot | firefox in ubuntu seems to default to "Open With" for everything when I tell it to ask me where I want to save files. is there a way to change this and make the default option Save to Disk? | 07:39 |
| CubeXombi | omega512: blackscreen after boot? | 07:39 |
| omega512 | <CubeXombi>yes | 07:39 |
| vika | u have talked me into it but one last question with and 8500gt will compiz scream on it | 07:39 |
| scguy318 | omega512: is this after the boot screen or after BIOS boot? | 07:39 |
| CubeXombi | omega512: does it let you in eventually? | 07:39 |
| b0r3d | hey. is it possible to multiboot vista and ubuntu on this HP laptop? | 07:40 |
| scguy318 | b0r3d: yep | 07:40 |

| crbrocket | b0r3d:yes I do it | 07:40 |
| omega512 | scguy31 i tried safe grafics and nothing match | 07:40 |
| scguy318 | vika: not sure, but probably :) and well, see for yourself :P | 07:40 |
| b0r3d | did you get vista boot loader to handle ubuntu's loading or did you install grub or someth? | 07:40 |
| crbrocket | b0r3d: no work need the install cd does it for you (if you have vista installed default) | 07:40 |
| scguy318 | omega512: in that case, you may have to use the alternative CD for installation | 07:41 |
| vika | not sure bout 8500gt ..? | 07:41 |
| Reng | whats the command path to terminal launcher. i want to make a shortcut icon on the desktop | 07:41 |
| crbrocket | b0r3d: first not default | 07:41 |
| scguy318 | vika: I don't have the card, nor do I use Compiz, so I don't really know the answer, but I believe what you ask is likely | 07:41 |
| b0r3d | crbrocket, ok now i burnt ubuntu on cd | 07:41 |
| b0r3d | what do i do next | 07:41 |
| crbrocket | Reng: gnome-terminal | 07:41 |

| schoonix | scguy318: do you know if http://img134.imageshack.us/my.php?image=screenshotdevsdagpartedkx0.png looks right for my HDD setup ? | 07:42 |
| Dr_willis | !iso | Bonste1 | 07:42 |
| ubot3 | Bonste1: 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. | 07:42 |
| * riotkittie fights the urge to !u | 07:42 | |
| scguy318 | b0r3d: the installer gives you the whole partitioning thing | 07:42 |

| crbrocket | Bonste1: mount -o loop isofile.iso | 07:42 |
| scguy318 | crbrocket: need a mount point :P | 07:42 |

| scguy318 | b0r3d: if you're concerned, just backup | 07:42 |
| crbrocket | scguy318 oops | 07:42 |
| CubeXombi | omega512: you can try and do a "sudo gedit /etc/grub/menu.lst" and erase the "quiet" and "splash" tags from from the Kernel line.. that did the job for me you may want to save a backup first though "sudo cp /boot/grub/menu.lst /boot/grub/menu.lst.bak" | 07:42 |
| scguy318 | !anyone | muhammedc | 07:43 |
| ubot3 | muhammedc: 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? | 07:43 |
| vika | are u serious whats wrong wit ur card | 07:43 |
| Fishfoot | vika: nothing wrong with it | 07:43 |
| vika | what do u need to run it | 07:43 |
| b0r3d | scguy318, oh. it turns out the ubuntu cd has a setup.exe | 07:43 |
| riotkittie | use .old instead of .bak | 07:43 |
| kopanda | Hmm, how do I get Flash Player 9 working with Opera? | 07:43 |
| Fishfoot | vika: when I last tried compiz fusion, the effects like minimizing and maximizing windows were drawn slowly | 07:43 |
| CubeXombi | <riotkittie>true.. | 07:43 |
| kopanda | I tried downloading the tar, extracting it, and running the setup, but it wanted to install to .mozilla... | 07:43 |
| vika | on that card it should be a rocket | 07:44 |
| Fishfoot | but it's not ;) | 07:44 |
| vika | on like 7600 its a gun big time with no lag so got no idea why urs would do that | 07:44 |
| vika | update drivers or something mayb ur cpu cant handle it | 07:44 |
| scguy318 | vika: well, why dont you test the LiveCD and see :) | 07:44 |
| riotkittie | CubeXombi: though in this case, it doesnt realllllllly matter. i'm just anal like that :P | 07:44 |
| scguy318 | vika: this really is a no obligation deal :P | 07:44 |
| crbrocket | Fishfoot: ran pretty well on an intel i945 | 07:44 |

| crbrocket | vika: should, out of the box | 07:45 |
| scguy318 | it did for my Intel | 07:45 |
| vika | i can always run update driver command in live cd and restart x | 07:45 |
| scguy318 | vika: yeah | 07:45 |
| smmagic | If live cd doesn't work you could try text base | 07:45 |
| scguy318 | vika: smmagic means the alternate CD | 07:45 |
| CubeXombi | scgu318: ouch.. alt CD it is! | 07:45 |
| vika | but isnt text base nutin no effects | 07:46 |
| omega512 | CubeXombi i type it in the menu installation?? | 07:46 |
| smmagic | Aaah... | 07:46 |
| Fishfoot | I am giving it another run | 07:46 |

| Fishfoot | riotkittie: that was my issue, yes | 07:47 |
| Fishfoot | the animations in the version I used before - especially the Magic Lamp ones... | 07:47 |
| Fishfoot | really bad. | 07:47 |
| Fishfoot | and really, any animation was bad when it came to minimizing or restoring | 07:47 |

| crbrocket | summer_s4: mount -o loop isofile.iso /media/folder | 07:48 |
| scguy318 | summer_s4: sudo mount -o loop isofile.iso /mnt/point | 07:48 |
| CubeXombi | omega512: try this.. hit f6 and delete the splash and quiet. see what thatdoes | 07:48 |
| cyros | summer_s4: mkdir /mnt/iso then mount -o loop -t iso9660 <filename>.iso /mnt/iso | 07:48 |

| scguy318 | cyros: -t iso9660 is redundant :P | 07:48 |
| Bonste1 | does it work or others .nrg .daa or is it just ISO only? | 07:48 |
| scguy318 | cyros: mount can detect the ISO 9660 filesystem automatically | 07:48 |
| cyros | sorry no beef | 07:48 |
| cyros | lol | 07:48 |
| wind | hey how do you set fsfn to autostart | 07:48 |
| scguy318 | Bonste1: just ISO, for those formats you would use AcetoneISO2 and/or fuseiso | 07:48 |
| wind | when i type in terminal "sudo fsfn" it turns on | 07:49 |
| scguy318 | Bonste1: not sure if it does nrg or daa tho | 07:49 |
| Bonste1 | acetone only for KDE | 07:49 |
| scguy318 | Bonste1: works on GNOME too | 07:49 |
| wind | but is there a way to do it without me opening terminal | 07:49 |
| Reng | i have an issue with watching quicktime 1080p video. it seem to lag alot and i have a core2duo 2.13ghz. what package i need to fix this? | 07:49 |

| muhammedc | hmmm - crieky - will try again later... cya | 07:51 |
| crbrocket | arooni: oh you mean a share, well nfs will do it, install nfs-kernel-server | 07:51 |
| Fishfoot | so vika, I guess it's fine (now) | 07:51 |
| Reng | <crbrocket>so there is no way to over come the dma on the hdd | 07:51 |
| vika | would compiz run the same on ubuntu 7.10 as on sabayon | 07:51 |

| riotkittie | wind: assuming you are using GNOME ... go to System menu > Preferences > Sessions. add it there. | 07:55 |
| cwgannon | jhonovich1: i believe aptitude allows you to check the dependencies of an app (if it's installed, at least) | 07:55 |
| dystopianray | SkaFreak: why do you need to set it manually to monitor mode? | 07:55 |
| summer_s4 | can someone tell me were to get the source code for gobuntu 7.10? | 07:55 |
| dystopianray | summer_s4: which source code are you after? | 07:55 |
| wind | riotkittie, i'm using gutsy, and what do i add for command? I try putting "sudo fsfn" and just fsfn but nothing happens next time i reboot | 07:55 |

| vika | is gutsy better then normal version | 07:56 |
| LinuxInsid1 | source code lol!! | 07:56 |
| dystopianray | vika: gutsy is the 'normal' version | 07:56 |
| summer_s4 | dystopianray: the whole thing. Preferibly the stuff that comes on the cd | 07:56 |
| cyros | wind: have you tried adding it to the startup programs? | 07:56 |
| wind | ? | 07:56 |
| dystopianray | summer_s4: I don't know if you can get the entire source code in one go | 07:56 |
| vika | oh | 07:56 |
| wind | yeah | 07:56 |
| wind | this is what i have | 07:56 |
| summer_s4 | dystopianray: well... were is it? | 07:57 |
| dystopianray | summer_s4: you'd probably need to grab the source for each individual part you want | 07:57 |
| ompaul | summer_s4, http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/cdimage/gobuntu/releases/7.10/release/ see the part called sources | 07:57 |
| Laser87 | wind: u have to put in the same order like in the terminal | 07:57 |
| dystopianray | summer_s4: you can use apt-get to fetch source packages | 07:57 |
| wind | ok | 07:57 |
| summer_s4 | dystopianray: thanks | 07:57 |
| wind | so if the terminal asks me for a password | 07:57 |
| ompaul | summer_s4, http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/cdimage/gobuntu/releases/7.10/release/ see the part called sources | 07:57 |
| wind | what do i do? | 07:57 |
| dystopianray | summer_s4: for example: sudo apt-get source nmap | 07:57 |
| wind | because i put "sudo fsfn" in terminal to turn on fsfn | 07:57 |
| c0Ld | How can I disable the tracker? | 07:58 |
| wind | and it asks for a pw, i put it in and poof it turns on | 07:58 |

| dystopianray | DigitalNinja: and if he wants to play 3d games then fglrx is probably the better choice | 08:17 |
| DigitalNinja | dystopianray: x1300 | 08:17 |
| riotkittie | hmuller: smartcard readers arent essential for an install, so i dont care about them at the moment :P | 08:17 |
| === BigCanOfTuna_ is now known as BigCanOfTuna | ||
| dystopianray | DigitalNinja: hrrm actually 'ati' is the driver for really really old cards, radeon is the other open source driver | 08:18 |
| dystopianray | DigitalNinja: his card is only supported by fglrx so there is nothing he can do | 08:18 |
| DigitalNinja | dystopianray: So he can't run compiz? | 08:19 |
| EvilBro | dystopianray: Is there a way to make grep report in which file he found a certain match? | 08:19 |
| dystopianray | EvilBro: it does so automatically if you give the files as an argument to grep | 08:19 |

| Radio_man | Nice don..welcome. | 08:20 |
| arooni | where do i want to go in ubuntu to make sure modules are loaded on startup (Add "nfs" and "nfsd" to /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6 to have the modules loaded each time you boot. ) i dont have a /etc/modules.autoload directory | 08:20 |
| don16140 | thanks radio | 08:20 |
| DigitalNinja | dystopianray: I see | 08:20 |
| dystopianray | DigitalNinja: or if he installst he very latest driver released a few days ago that does support aiglx | 08:20 |
| DigitalNinja | dystopianray: You mean the ati drive from ati? | 08:20 |
| EvilBro | dystopianray: You are of course correct... I must learn to read better... | 08:20 |
| dystopianray | DigitalNinja: the latest fglrx from ati, 8.42.3 | 08:20 |
| DigitalNinja | dystopianray: I see | 08:21 |

| dystopianray | eido_: are you using the radeon or fglrx driver? | 08:23 |
| arooni | ok | 08:23 |
| anandanbu | b0r3d: Yeah you can do it | 08:23 |

| webpirate_ | any ideas? | 08:26 |
| anandanbu | b0r3d: are you doing a fresh installation or what | 08:26 |
| b0r3d | should I select the vista partition and click next? | 08:26 |
| b0r3d | anandanbu, install from the cd | 08:26 |
| webpirate_ | it works ok when I install XGL...but uses lots of processor | 08:26 |
| eido_ | dystopianray: output reads; "kdb" "mouse" "synaptics" "wacom" &"ati" | 08:26 |
| b0r3d | that i burnt (desktop)( | 08:26 |
| hmuller | arooni: looking in the wrong place, checkout /etc/modules | 08:27 |
| cyros | anyone know where that new finder thing in xubuntu 7.10 is? or is a gnome only thing? | 08:27 |
| anandanbu | b0r3d: no do you have any other OS installed in your system | 08:27 |
| dbmoodb | he has vista | 08:27 |
| b0r3d | anandanbu, vista | 08:27 |
| dystopianray | eido_: do you get 3d acceleration with that driver? I think it should run compiz | 08:27 |

| webpirate_ | yes 3d works | 08:27 |
| b0r3d | anandanbu, there is no free space | 08:28 |
| dbmoodb | ? | 08:28 |
| hmuller | arooni: not a directory, a file | 08:28 |
| eido_ | dystopianray: sorry how can I determine that....it did not give an option for restricted drivers on my video card just for my modem | 08:28 |
| hmuller | cat /etc/modules | 08:28 |
| anandanbu | b0r3d: sorry then i have no idea about it | 08:28 |
| dbmoodb | sure | 08:28 |
| b0r3d | anandanbu, i mean the vista partition curretnly spans all the hdd | 08:28 |
| dystopianray | eido_: your card is probably much too old for fglrx | 08:28 |
| webpirate_ | just strange that compiz is looking for XGL with nvidia card | 08:28 |
| dbmoodb | yeah | 08:28 |
| dbmoodb | that is want we mean bored | 08:28 |

| b0r3d | yes | 08:30 |
| dbmoodb | edit it to a smaller size | 08:30 |
| arooni | will NFS be able to *sync* changes between files back and forth between client & server? or can i only *view* files when i'm connected to a given network? | 08:30 |
| dystopianray | webpirate_: do you have nvidia-glx-new installed? | 08:30 |
| dbmoodb | right | 08:30 |
| dbmoodb | then wait | 08:30 |

| dystopianray | eido_: i can't help much more, I don't use compiz or ati hardware | 08:31 |
| arooni | dystopianray, so i can sync a file to my laptop, disconnect from network, then hook back up to the network and changes should be synced automatically? | 08:31 |
| arooni | how can i get my DNS name for my computer? | 08:31 |
| webpirate_ | does anyone have nvidia card with compiz in 7.10..? | 08:31 |
| timob | anyone have resolution issues with 7.10 on a 1680x1050 monitor? | 08:31 |

| dystopianray | arooni: you cannot use nfs if you are disconnected from the server | 08:31 |
| hmuller | webpirate: 8400M GS | 08:31 |
| kahrytan | webpirate_, why? | 08:31 |
| cyros | oh i rebooted and it worked | 08:31 |
| dystopianray | arooni: it's a simple read/write network filesystem | 08:31 |
| webpirate_ | can you check your Xorg.conf and tell me where to put the AIGLX stuff | 08:31 |
| cyros | scared for a min | 08:31 |
| galve1 | I think my network card is bad - do I have to do anything special to replace it ? Also any recomendation on a good wireless card to replace it? | 08:31 |
| kahrytan | webpirate_, why put it in there? | 08:31 |
| arooni | dystopianray, ah ok | 08:31 |
| webpirate_ | well I think I need it to get compiz working properly | 08:32 |
| gordonjcp | timob: I found that Ubuntu defaults to 50Hz which my LCD won't really work with, but works great with 55Hz | 08:32 |
| dystopianray | galve1: anything from intel usually works perfectly | 08:32 |
| webpirate_ | Option "AIGLX" "true" <<----where do I put it? | 08:32 |
| dystopianray | webpirate_: you don't need that | 08:32 |
| webpirate_ | ok could that be my problem with compiz not working then? | 08:32 |
| hmuller | webpirate: It's not in my xorg.conf | 08:33 |
| webpirate_ | because I have it in my serverlayout section | 08:33 |
| galve1 | Dystopianray - ok so I get a new card, then what how do I install the new drivers? | 08:33 |
| arooni | i have a laptop and a desktop... id like to be able to edit files on my laptop when i'm not connected to my home network. when i come home and hook my laptop up to the network, id like the changes to a given directory (like My Documents) to be synced between laptop & the pc. can this be done in linux? | 08:33 |
| dystopianray | galve1: you don't it will 'just work' | 08:33 |
| webpirate_ | hmullrt>>so you have nvidia card? | 08:33 |
| dystopianray | webpirate_: it shouldn't matter | 08:33 |

| kahrytan | webpirate_, Only thing I got is Section "Module";Load"glx";EndSection at the end | 08:34 |
| webpirate_ | I will check if I have those ones...I just enables restricted drivers I just assumes it knew what to do....brb | 08:34 |

| icewater1an | galve1: to leave a channel it is /part | 08:35 |
| galve1 | thanks | 08:35 |
| hmuller | webpirate: don't forget to install compizconfig-settings-manager, that's what I use to configure compiz | 08:36 |
| webpirate_ | The problem I have with compiz is it won't load and I get this error Checking for Xgl: not present. | 08:36 |

| hmuller | timob: if you use guided, it'll create a root and swap partition | 08:38 |
| timob | dystopianray, hmuller: ok thanks | 08:38 |

| pwuertz_ | jscinoz: I don't think packaging qw:et is a good idea since for every new point release you will have to repack/install your whole 4.2GB package | 08:45 |
| webpirate_ | back in a few | 08:45 |
| arooni | jscinoz, but can i do manual configuration for just one connection and have it only apply to that one connection (or is manual config manual config across all connecti0nos) | 08:46 |
| jscinoz | arooni, if you do it the way i suggested its for every connection, im not how to make it work on a connection specific basis | 08:46 |
| hmuller | anyONE using aide? | 08:47 |
| jscinoz | pwertz_ good point, i wont package it then :P now i just gotta get my repo up for other games i packaged (savage, wolf et, tce) | 08:47 |
| Yodude | how come the tracker search tool isn't set as the default search engine in ubuntu ? | 08:47 |
| pwuertz_ | jscinoz: if you want, you could still package the binary along with some self-made menu entry | 08:48 |
| joerack | jscinoz: could you please tell me how to revert now i've installed? I can't cancel files from the desktop lol | 08:48 |
| tuntun | Shouldn't I see a swap partition with the mount command? | 08:48 |
| jscinoz | joerack, what do you mean by "cancel"? | 08:48 |
| joerack | deleting | 08:49 |
| jscinoz | pwuertz hmm, but i'd probably have to update that too since updates would likely change the binary >_< | 08:49 |
| hmuller | well, I'm gonna get some rest. good night, and good day to all | 08:49 |

| Bonste1 | whats the command to unmount an ISO? | 08:53 |
| pwuertz_ | yea thats what I meant... jscinoz ok... my / is a little bit smaller... but the biggest one is /home.... so thats why I put gamefiles from quake/doom/etqw in home and symlink them to /opt where the pointrelease is installed | 08:53 |

| XB23 | hey guys, how do hosting companys stop other people from going into system files or other users directorys in ubuntu? | 09:15 |
| heartsblood | is it possible to pass the name of a program with options in an autostart file? | 09:15 |
| gordonjcp | XB23: depends how you access the server | 09:15 |
| heartsblood | ~/config/autostart* | 09:15 |
| XB23 | ssh gordonjcp | 09:15 |
| XB23 | or ftp | 09:15 |
| gordonjcp | XB23: you can't, really | 09:15 |
| XB23 | ah | 09:16 |
| gordonjcp | XB23: FTP you can do something about | 09:16 |
| Barbarello | Recommend a firewall please! Need to be able control over applications: enable or disable network access in my choise depend. | 09:16 |
| webpirate | XB23>> if you have ssh access you can check your permissions | 09:16 |
| gordonjcp | if you can SSH in, you can read anything you've got permissions to | 09:16 |
| XB23 | ah i see | 09:16 |
| XB23 | what about rbash | 09:16 |
| XB23 | to restrict users leavin there home directory | 09:16 |
| heartsblood | gordonjcp: o.o? the heck you cant | 09:16 |
| XB23 | mind u i suppose u can bypass that with perl or somet | 09:16 |
| webpirate | XB23>> most hosting places don't grand ssh access unless you have deticated server | 09:16 |
| heartsblood | XB23: chmod 700 the files you want to keep private. problem solved. | 09:17 |
| dn4 | !gfx | 09:17 |
| ubot3 | Factoid gfx not found | 09:17 |

| XB23 | its mainly for ircds webpirate | 09:17 |
| webpirate | is it shared hosting? | 09:17 |
| XB23 | yeh | 09:17 |
| XB23 | 1 box with different ips and accounts | 09:17 |
| sdrowkcab | how do I crack WPA with ubuntu? | 09:18 |
| arooni_ | anyone famialiar with unison? is this something that be done automagically? like run every so often? does anyone have it set up? | 09:18 |
| XB23 | i know in bsd there is the jails function | 09:18 |
| webpirate | they probably won't grant you ssh access but what are you trying to do? | 09:18 |
| linuxn00b314 | webpirate do u think my card will work with 32 bit though? | 09:18 |
| heartsblood | XB23: no idea what that is, but if your using ssh on a server and you dont want people seeing inside your workspace, or other just chmod 700 your ~ and nobody will be able to look inside (other than root). | 09:18 |
| XB23 | what about system files heartsblood | 09:18 |
| heartsblood | XB23: jail is more or less used for ftp sessions only. when you use ssh it reads system file permissions | 09:18 |
| XB23 | is there anything they can read in there that they shouldnt | 09:19 |
| XB23 | such as passwords/ mysql databases | 09:19 |
| webpirate | if you want to deny access or password protect files you can to that from Cpanel if thats what they use | 09:19 |
| heartsblood | generally speaking, no. | 09:19 |
| heartsblood | but that's not an absolute. | 09:19 |
| XB23 | ah | 09:19 |
| Rolf_LAP_Skaar_ | mmm | 09:20 |
| gordonjcp | heartsblood: can't what? | 09:20 |
| webpirate | check the filemanager in cpanel and then change the permissions | 09:20 |
| heartsblood | XB23: for most files on the system the average user will have -read- access. if your the system admin you can remove that if you want | 09:20 |
| XB23 | yeh but if i chmod the system files how are the binarys and libs going to read them | 09:20 |
| XB23 | can they over ride that | 09:20 |
| gordonjcp | XB23: no, they can't | 09:20 |
| punzada | Question, I boot ubuntu from a small ext3 partition I made and am looking to add to it (possibly by just mounting another ext3 partition to it). I'm trying to resize my xp partition (which I just defragmented for safe measure) to give some space and reformat but gparted won't let me resize it (it's fat32). Any ideas? | 09:20 |
| webpirate | you can change the permission to execute only... | 09:21 |
| gordonjcp | XB23: don't change the permissions on any of the system files | 09:21 |
| XB23 | kk | 09:21 |
| heartsblood | XB23: you dont want to bind users too much or it will be a pain for them to work with | 09:21 |
| XB23 | wonder if xen is a good option | 09:21 |
| heartsblood | XB23: --x is always an option but a hassle sometimes | 09:21 |
| gordonjcp | XB23: it depends what you're trying to do | 09:21 |
| webpirate | xb23.....I seriously would not worry too much unless you got government documents on the server... | 09:22 |
| MilhousePunkRock | Hello everyone! | 09:22 |
| gordonjcp | XB23: bear in mind that if you're serving up web pages, then if nothing else the web server will need to be able to read the files | 09:22 |
| webpirate | the server are usually pretty good at setting the permissions for you | 09:22 |
| heartsblood | webpirate <--- what he said | 09:22 |
| XB23 | ah i see | 09:22 |
| XB23 | but what about things such as mysql database files | 09:22 |
| XB23 | or system password files | 09:22 |
| XB23 | cant they vi them? | 09:22 |
| heartsblood | XB23: they're not saved in cleartext. | 09:22 |
| webpirate | if you are putting them in php files you will be ok | 09:23 |
| punzada | !gparted | 09:23 |
| ubot3 | GParted is is a !GUI partitioning program. Type « sudo apt-get install gparted » in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php | 09:23 |
| kousotu | what program can convert WAV to MP3 or OGG? (audacity is NOT what I was looking for) | 09:23 |
| macogw | kousotu: ffmpeg | 09:23 |
| gordonjcp | kousotu: lame for mp3, oggenc for ogg ;-) | 09:23 |
| MilhousePunkRock | I am having problems with networking on the Live CD of Gutsy, it's an ethernet connection with static IP, configured with network manager, still ifconfig only shows the IPv6 address and the network is unreachable | 09:23 |
| heartsblood | XB23: if sombody wants to attack your sql server they'll do it from the servers access port. not from within the system | 09:23 |
| macogw | kousotu: it's a transcoder. audacity is for music editing | 09:23 |
| webpirate | set your passwords and mysql stuff in php format | 09:23 |
| Rolf_LAP_Skaar | mmm, windows tend to dissapear while using compiz fusion. | 09:23 |

| b0r3d | xD | 09:24 |
| kousotu | macogw: there was a tool that was used to reincode, I just don't remember it | 09:24 |
| macogw | Rolf_LAP_Skaar: if you use the scale plugin and click the background instead of a window, it does "show desktop" and you need to alt+tab to make them visible again | 09:24 |
| webpirate | usually the sql server are attacked by sql injection | 09:24 |
| Radio_man | Ijustlostmyspacebar | 09:24 |
| macogw | kousotu: idk, i just know ffmpeg will transcode. it's command line though. there are front-ends, the only one i can think of right now is vive though | 09:24 |
| heartsblood | Detra: you have too many devices using irq18. try taking out your pci cards and restarting to see if that helps. | 09:24 |
| gordonjcp | heartsblood: you wouldn't normally expose the mysql server port to a routable interface though | 09:25 |
| Bonste1 | kousotu: Add/remove search convert | 09:25 |

| heartsblood | gordonjcp: Not everybody ubuntu box uses a linksys router, nor do databases always exist on the same machine as the webserver. | 09:26 |
| macogw | kousotu: it's not in the repos | 09:26 |
| gordonjcp | heartsblood: I know this | 09:26 |
| macogw | kousotu: i compiled it when i used it before | 09:26 |
| linuxn00b314 | oxeimon: suck it | 09:26 |
| kousotu | macogw: there was one in the repo | 09:26 |
| linuxn00b314 | s | 09:26 |
| kousotu | macogw: I just can't think of it :( | 09:26 |
| macogw | kousotu: you could do "apt-cache search ffmpeg" and see what all comes up | 09:27 |
| gordonjcp | heartsblood: what I'm saying is, if you're actually exposing 3306 to the outside world, you're basically insane anyway | 09:27 |
| heartsblood | Detra: irq 18 is normally for wireless cards, but it could be anything. | 09:27 |
| Detra | heartsblood, ok ... Im dont have a wireless card ... But can't I change the irq channels or something ? | 09:27 |
| Bonste1 | kousotu: u try Sound converter? | 09:27 |
| kousotu | it's not there :( | 09:28 |
| heartsblood | Detra: take all the non-essential cards out of your system and try to start your system. the problem may be as easy as changing pci slots (if this is a pc and not a laptop) | 09:28 |
| Bonste1 | try repo | 09:28 |
| punzada | nevermind, wasn't running it with root lol | 09:28 |
| eido_ | my laptop takes five minutes to boot after grub countdown ...black screen only, is there a way to see what is going on? | 09:28 |
| Detra | heartsblood, it is ... | 09:28 |
| kousotu | I'll try the KDE soundkonverter | 09:29 |
| Detra | heartsblood, what if its my videocard ? | 09:29 |
| kousotu | (I have both on my install | 09:29 |
| heartsblood | Detra: start the system with only your video card and disable all onboard (built-in) pci devices ethernet/sound/etc. | 09:29 |
| heartsblood | Detra: AGP/PCI? | 09:29 |

| Detra | heartsblood, pci-e | 09:29 |
| DAC1138 | eido_, look through synaptic and find a grub/bootloader config utility | 09:29 |
| Barbarello | Cant you advise a firewall for linuks, please. Need to control using of network by appl directly. | 09:29 |
| DAC1138 | eido_, there will be settings there to configure the boot screen and the resolution it uses. try lowering the resolution with that utility and see if that works | 09:30 |
| heartsblood | Detra: do you have 2 cards or one? | 09:30 |
| Detra | 1 | 09:30 |
| DAC1138 | tarelerulz, try #bittornado ? | 09:30 |
| Detra | heartsblood, but I have the onboard ... | 09:30 |
| eido_ | DAC1138: thank you | 09:30 |
| nyarla_ | could somebody remind me the name of the ubuntu app that read news (nntp) the way that forte agent does? | 09:30 |
| tarelerulz | thanks DAC | 09:30 |
| DAC1138 | eido_, i had the same problem, i just played with the settings until it worked. just keep playing with it and you'll get it too | 09:31 |
| heartsblood | Detra: disable the onboard video card first of all. any pci-e device should use dynamic irq assignments. (ie they'll use whatever isn't being used) | 09:31 |
| gordonjcp | heartsblood: basically if you're splitting (say) a db server and a web server, then you'd have the db server exposed to a non-routable network, so that any db traffic remains behind your firewall (and indeed never leaves the local segment anyway) | 09:31 |
| nyarla_ | or any good usenet reader? | 09:31 |
| Detra | heartsblood, ok .. thx ... | 09:31 |
| DAC1138 | tarelerulz, #bittornado would know the specific problem, as most people in here probably use something different (i use deluge) | 09:31 |
| kousotu | erg... | 09:32 |
| heartsblood | gordonjcp: again, databases arn't always in the same place as the servers that need to request them. | 09:32 |
| zewb | sometimes the databases are hidden in people's asses | 09:32 |
| heartsblood | truth! | 09:32 |
| gordonjcp | heartsblood: yes, but you would never ever under any circumstances have 3306 exposed to the Internet | 09:33 |
| Barbarello | nigopasb| | 09:34 |
| tarelerulz | DAC1138 , I have use Deluge and I have had nothing ,but problems with it. It don't seem to work that well, and ktorrent do seem to see that many peers ever so I don't know if I don't config the bit torrents right or I just have lam routers | 09:34 |
| gordonjcp | heartsblood: not unless you were doing something *extremely* unusual and crazy | 09:34 |
| heartsblood | gordonjcp: no | 09:34 |
| gordonjcp | heartsblood: uhm, yes | 09:34 |
| gordonjcp | heartsblood: at the very minimum you'd pass the traffic over a VPN | 09:35 |
| zewb | tarelerulz: can you please use english in this channel? | 09:35 |
| heartsblood | gordjcp: the company I work for has a database cluster in dalas, our web servers are in DC. | 09:35 |
| zewb | tarelerulz: can you please use english in this channel? | 09:35 |
| gordonjcp | heartsblood: but there's no reason at all to expose the SQL server port to the Internet anyway; you'd pretty much only ever use some other interface layer | 09:35 |
| heartsblood | gordjcp: I'm not going to go into why | 09:35 |
| jscinoz | Is the default kernel lowlatency? | 09:35 |
| gordonjcp | heartsblood: you're not going to go into why, because there's no reason why | 09:35 |
| gordonjcp | heartsblood: but anyway, I suspect this is more for #u-ot | 09:36 |
| kousotu | how do you get MP3 in sound converte? | 09:36 |
| kousotu | converter* | 09:36 |
| gordonjcp | kousotu: lame sound.wav | 09:37 |
| ubntu001 | hello can u give me instructions for how to make a part of my hard disc for ubuntu? because i want to have and my windows system and what type of disc it request? for example ntfs? thanks... | 09:37 |
| sonetre | ehmm...why is there an Update manager, synaptic package manager and add-remove applications? Don't they do the same thing? | 09:37 |
| kousotu | gordonjcp: it's greye out | 09:37 |
| b0r3d | New restricted drivers in use: In order for this computer to function properly ubuntu is using driver s/w that cannot be supported by Ubuntu | 09:37 |
| kousotu | greyed* | 09:37 |
| b0r3d | I can't seem to be able to enable the nvidia driver | 09:37 |
| tarelerulz | Do most bit torrent clients have checking of your downloads in them is that a common feature ? I thought you have to them something /home/username/torrent and it would find a folder name what the torrent is name and it would look in that and see you have it and start sharing it | 09:37 |
| gordonjcp | kousotu: you don't have lame installed, or whatever sound converter uses for mp3s | 09:37 |
| b0r3d | The s/w source for the package nvidia-glx-new is not enabled | 09:37 |
| gordonjcp | kousotu: sudo apt-get install lame | 09:37 |
| gordonjcp | sonetre: nearly the same things | 09:38 |
| kousotu | ty | 09:38 |
| b0r3d | anyone | 09:38 |
| b0r3d | what would the root passwd be by defaut | 09:39 |
| sonetre | gordonjcp, can you tell me the difference? | 09:39 |
| mcp_ | b0r3d, same as your user password | 09:39 |
| gordonjcp | sonetre: not really, I only ever use apt ;-) | 09:40 |
| gordonjcp | b0r3d: there isn't a root password, use sudo | 09:40 |
| b0r3d | sudo su - | 09:40 |
| b0r3d | and changed it. | 09:40 |
| b0r3d | :)( | 09:40 |

| Tatster | Hi all. Is it possible to upgrade from 7.04 to 7.10 over SSH remotely ? | 09:41 |
| Barbarello | n|/|gopacb| | 09:41 |
| zewb | solution to all linux problems: sudo rm /etc/*.* | 09:43 |
| DAC1138 | tarelerulz, i've used deluge, azureus, bittornado, and the gnome torrent app and transmission. i like deluge personally, but you may have had your problems with it. probably something misconfigured in your router | 09:44 |
| DAC1138 | tarelerulz, like i said, check #bittornado and if they suggest it's a router issue check into google for your router configuration for bittorrent clients | 09:45 |

| sdrowkcab | i found some but it doesnt com up in open office | 09:59 |

| progress0r | im on an amd64 dual core sys with 2gb of ram. I run kde on gutsy in 64bit, firefox is driving me nuts because its constantly eating my entire cpu. Anyone else noticed this? | 10:01 |

| progress0r | dang! it just did again. | 10:02 |
| Barbarello | Bonste1> ok | 10:02 |
| Bonste1 | orduek: Ktorrent | 10:02 |
| MilhousePunkRock | Are there known problems with static IP configurations on the Gutsy CD? | 10:03 |
| Hans-Martin | kallepersson: for me, the upgrade failed (because of evms) and it took me quite some effort to get a working system again | 10:03 |
| kallepersson | what is evms | 10:04 |
| orduek | bonste: but the problem is java | 10:04 |
| kallepersson | I figure that if the upgrade fails I'll probably just go with openSUSE 10.3 instead | 10:04 |
| novato_br | do you only talk about ubuntu on this channel? it's so boring... | 10:04 |
| orduek | and i need to fix my java problem (not only for azureus) | 10:04 |
| Bonste1 | then Dl sun-java-6 | 10:04 |

| b0r3d | hi. I don't have an internet connection on my ubuntu desktop and i need to install these packageso on it: "sudo aptitude install build-essential linux-headers-generic" where do i get them from? | 10:10 |
| mosno | kallepersson: imho openSUSE has a nicer KDE than Ubuntu, but Ubuntu has a (much) nicer Gnome | 10:11 |
| kallepersson | vanush: openSUSE 10.3 is awesome. | 10:11 |
| ubuntu | where can i get ubuntu ultimate support | 10:11 |
| Bonste1 | in nicer meaning pretty? | 10:11 |
| kallepersson | mosno: Um... the GNOME's of Gutsy and openSUSE 10.3 are exactly the same. | 10:11 |
| kallepersson | ubuntu: Google for it | 10:11 |
| orduek | bonste: Ktorrent works fine on gnome? | 10:11 |
| mosno | Bonste1: they do all these functionality hacks which imho mangle the vanilla Gnome | 10:11 |
| kallepersson | mosno: except for a couple of theme changes. | 10:11 |
| Bonste1 | orduek: yea | 10:11 |
| b0r3d | where do I download the build-essential linux-headers-generic packges from/ | 10:11 |
| Woodruff | Hello , is there an installation for old computers (256 MB Ram P3 laptop) because the regular livecd installation seems to be very slowly on it | 10:12 |
| Woodruff | ?? | 10:12 |
| mosno | kallepersson: what about the usability changes? | 10:12 |
| kallepersson | that Novell did? | 10:12 |
| Bonste1 | mosno: examples? | 10:12 |
| mosno | kallepersson: whoever -- the ones in openSUSE | 10:12 |
| [chr0n0s] | b0r3d, use sudo apt-get install build-essential linux-headers-generic | 10:12 |
| kallepersson | I see. | 10:12 |
| mosno | Bonste1: eg. the redesign of the 'start' menu | 10:12 |
| === icewater1an is now known as icewaterman | ||
| novato_br | Woodruff, there is alternative, dude | 10:12 |
| kallepersson | Well those are ofc differend, but it's not like you can't get those neat features on your Ubuntu GNOME as well | 10:13 |
| kallepersson | gtg now | 10:13 |
| [chr0n0s] | Woodruff, you need to download xubuntu | 10:13 |
| joerack | chr0n0s: can anything be done for my ubuntu that runs slower than windows 98? | 10:13 |

| tiago | hi does any one have any experience setting up dual head for ati under gusty gibbon? | 10:13 |
| kallepersson | mosno: and I said that they were kind of exactly the same. Sure, there are differences but not -that- many. | 10:13 |
| mosno | however, openSUSE's redesign of the *KDE* 'start' menu kicks arse | 10:13 |

| MorsKajak | Is there a good up-to-date guide on how to install a Japanese IME in 7.10? | 10:25 |
| n2dar | how can i find out wats wrong? | 10:25 |
| b0r3d | gutsy | 10:25 |
| Wibble- | hi - I've upgraded to gutsy and my vmware has stopped working, probably due to the kernel upgrade. Running vmware-config.pl tries to build a new vmmon module, but fails because the kernel header file does not contain "linux/version.h". It does contain the other header files, so I'm completely stumped! How can I make progress? | 10:25 |
| Bonste1 | neumind: try the liveCD again | 10:25 |
| inversekinetix | MorsKajak I just did it now | 10:25 |
| MorsKajak | I've tried enabling the advanced input for languages, but I can't figure out how the SCIM works and the documentation is pretty sparse. | 10:25 |
| Wibble- | n2dar: Possibly stuff in /var/log - if something isn't quite right, log files can take up a huge amount of space. | 10:25 |
| neumind | Bonste1 i tryied reinstall ubuntu, but when is partition part is stuck.. | 10:26 |
| MorsKajak | inverse: Have any tips? | 10:26 |
| Wibble- | n2dar: Use the disk usage analyser to find out | 10:26 |
| inversekinetix | MorsKajak: did you install the language files? | 10:26 |
| MorsKajak | Yeah. | 10:26 |
| MorsKajak | And SCIM. | 10:26 |
| inversekinetix | to change to japanese just pres left control + space | 10:26 |
| n2dar | k | 10:26 |
| MorsKajak | What about switching between hiragana and katakana? | 10:26 |
| inversekinetix | MorsKajak: click on the kanji in the bottom right corner | 10:27 |
| MorsKajak | Is there a way to do it via keyboard? I use Japanese most of the time; I don't really want to be switching to my mouse every few words. | 10:27 |
| jimcooncat | anyone have a link on using ebox with gutsy, please? | 10:27 |
| inversekinetix | just use left ctrl + space it defaults to katakana | 10:27 |
| MorsKajak | If it defaults to katakana, then how do I type in hiragana? | 10:28 |
| inversekinetix | sorry defaults to hiragana | 10:28 |
| === matthijs is now known as Ilovejump | ||
| MorsKajak | Okay, then how can I type in katakana with the keyboard, not using a mouse? | 10:28 |
| Nallep | Is there any backup/restore solution for ubuntu that can restore a system with all it's applications/configuration settings? I'm looking for something for desktops/laptops that doesn't require disk imaging. Any have any luck with anything in the past? | 10:28 |
| neumind | why when i reinstaling ubuntu on particion part window is stuck? | 10:28 |
| MorsKajak | For example, in Windows, I can just type all of my stuff and hit F7. | 10:28 |
| Wibble- | Nallep: you could always use dd ;) | 10:28 |
| inversekinetix | MorsKajak: or after you type in the hiragana just press space to scroll through interpretations of the kana | 10:29 |
| joerack | Hello! My ubuntu on core 2 duo is slower than windows98 can anything be done?! | 10:29 |
| MaTrIx-X | Anyone here fairly familiar with compiling source builds willing to give something a try for me? | 10:29 |
| Nallep | Wibble: I don't want to do diskimaging | 10:29 |
| MorsKajak | joerack: I had that problem... I just stopped using the 64-bit version because of that. | 10:29 |
| Wibble- | Nallep: sorry - I skipped that bit of your question! My bad. | 10:29 |
| MorsKajak | inverse: So basically there's no hotkey to just convert to katakana? | 10:29 |
| inversekinetix | convert what to katakana? | 10:30 |
| inversekinetix | what do you need to conver to katakana? | 10:30 |
| Bonste1 | !katakana | 10:30 |
| ubot3 | Factoid katakana not found | 10:30 |
| Nallep | I just tried restoring a test system with sbackup, but it doesn't restore aplications/configurations automatically | 10:30 |
| MorsKajak | What I type. | 10:30 |
| inversekinetix | set it to japanese input, | 10:30 |
| MorsKajak | For example, in conversational Japanese, I end up using katakana for emphasis, which means that they're non-standard. | 10:30 |
| MorsKajak | I don't really want to be tapping spacebar all the time or reaching for my mouse. | 10:30 |
| predaeus | MaTrIx-X, what are you trying to compile? It is usually much easier/safer to use packaged programs from the repositories? | 10:30 |
| inversekinetix | yes so press space to scroll through to the katakana variant | 10:31 |
| Wibble- | Nallep: you could get most of them by also copying across the /etc directory; but you'd still need to do configuration because some packages are really machine specific. I suspect there isn't anything that'll guess which onesyouw ant to be system specific and which ones not! | 10:31 |
| b0r3d | nanonyme, it didn't work | 10:31 |
| Kopfgeldjaeger | hi | 10:31 |
| MaTrIx-X | predaeus: it's a package that is broken, and there is no suitable replacement for it | 10:31 |
| inversekinetix | its the same as on japanese windows | 10:31 |
| inversekinetix | or english windows with IME | 10:31 |
| Bonste1 | im hungrey | 10:31 |
| MorsKajak | On Windows with an IME, I just hit F7 to convert to katakana... I don't fiddle with the spacebar. | 10:31 |
| MorsKajak | That aside, what about handwriting support for kanji? | 10:32 |
| inversekinetix | its easier to hit space than reach for f7 | 10:32 |
| MorsKajak | Not for me, heh. | 10:32 |
| MaTrIx-X | predaeus: would you mind giving it a shot for me? | 10:32 |
| inversekinetix | i guess youre outta luck then | 10:32 |
| MorsKajak | It's a lot faster for me to hit F7 and get instant katakana than it is to flip through kanji. | 10:32 |
| Bonste1 | MorsKajak: use xev and xmodmap and bind keys? | 10:32 |
| predaeus | MaTrIx-X, what app is it? | 10:32 |
| b0r3d | is g++ available in the gutsy i386 cd/ | 10:32 |
| inversekinetix | 食べて たべて タベテ | 10:33 |
| MaTrIx-X | predaeus: the package is called iscsi-target, and there is a -4 version which supposedly is unstable and fixes the problem which is breaking it on 7.10 | 10:33 |
| MorsKajak | Yeah, but if all I wanted was tabete, I wouldn't want to hit spacebar and go through the variants -- I'd just hit F7. | 10:33 |
| inversekinetix | map a hotkey then | 10:33 |
| Nallep | Wibble: I have several identical desktops/laptops that all have the same hardware, I have the same software installed on all of them, I guess I'm looking for something that can take a "snapshot" of the installed packages and configurations and duplicate it all. | 10:33 |
| MaTrIx-X | predaeus: the development version is listed in the hardy repository | 10:34 |
| Nallep | Wibble: and keep daily/weekly incremental backups | 10:34 |

| lalalande | firestarter closes by on it's own when i put totem on fullscreem does someone know why? | 10:43 |
| MaTrIx-X | saloxin: it might come down to that, I already blew about 8 hours on this so far though so it may have to be a last resort | 10:43 |
| inversekinetix | Gate: at least the reboots are like lightening now | 10:43 |
| SoulChild | i have a problem with my vesa-buffer, i have a samsung WXGA Notebook, X runs on 1280x800 which is the optimal resoloution, but hwinfo --framebuffer does not list 1280x800 , does that mean that my framebuffer does not support that res??? | 10:43 |
| lsusr | can someone tell me how to tell the graphs in munin to start from new ? :) | 10:43 |
| b0r3d | which ver of g++ do i install? | 10:43 |
| Bonste1 | did u check ur ISOs with md5sum? | 10:43 |
| dn4 | what ist he command to see all the programs running? | 10:43 |
| Atomic_UE | Adriaan_, check the md5 checksums of your ISO images | 10:43 |
| Gate | inversekinetix: orly? haven't gotten that far. had Gutsy on my tower, but its always fast. | 10:43 |
| schlumpf- | hi how do i kill a zombie prozess which does not show up under top | 10:43 |
| ifireball | hi I just got a system-crash during an upgrade to gusty, how can I resume it? | 10:43 |
| Adriaan_ | I akways check them | 10:44 |
| [chr0n0s] | dn4, ps aux | less | 10:44 |
| Gate | my laptop has had gutsy for 45 minutes while it installs my software | 10:44 |
| irc | help............ install 7.10 - when loading my screen say "don't support 1024x786 60Mhz" ???, I try to change when loading to 640x480 but the same results :( | 10:44 |
| MaTrIx-X | saloxin: is it possible to build a source application like this when booted to the Ubuntu CD? as in not an actual ubuntu install? | 10:44 |
| inversekinetix | Gate: my XP runs faster than gutsy on same hardware | 10:44 |
| Bonste1 | then is the burner or the disc | 10:44 |
| Bonste1 | ur using | 10:44 |
| Ademan | does /var/cache get cleaned at any point? | 10:44 |
| Nallep | Does anyone know of a way to make a custom install CD that mimics your current configuration? any tools that help build a custom built install cd? | 10:44 |
| Bonste1 | thats about all thats left | 10:44 |
| [chr0n0s] | inversekinetix, try using xfce and tell me the results | 10:45 |
| saloxin | MaTrIx-X: no, not really. you might try a virtual solution like virtualbox, vmware or xen if you're out of hardware | 10:45 |
| Gate | inversekinetix: odd. I haven't noticed a significant difference in boot times between the two | 10:45 |
| inversekinetix | whats xfce? | 10:45 |
| predaeus | MaTrIx-X, I think you file a request here https://launchpad.net/gutsy-backports/+filebug | 10:45 |
| Gate | inversekinetix: alternative to Gnome/KDE | 10:45 |
| [chr0n0s] | inversekinetix, you know what is gnome ? | 10:45 |
| Gate | lightweight and fast | 10:45 |
| MaTrIx-X | predaeus: ok, I'll give that a try | 10:45 |
| schnoonix | anyone know how i install XGL ? | 10:45 |
| inversekinetix | yes | 10:45 |
| lsusr | apt-get install xgl | 10:45 |
| neumind | why when i reinstaling ubuntu on particion part window is stuck? | 10:46 |
| [chr0n0s] | schnoonix, use sudo apt-get install xserver-xgl | 10:46 |
| Atomic_UE | Adriaan_, if your md5s are correct, you got no errors when burning the cds, and you think the cds are fine, just give them a go and see if you can boot the live distro | 10:46 |
| MaTrIx-X | saloxin: not a bad idea there, I will try doing it in virtualbox if a backport is not delivered | 10:46 |
| lsusr | the xgl package is called "xserver-xgl" | 10:46 |
| inversekinetix | Gate: is it better? | 10:46 |
| Atomic_UE | !xfce | 10:46 |
| ubot3 | xubuntu is Ubuntu with Xfce instead of Gnome. For more info, see http://www.xubuntu.org and http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/ - To install from Ubuntu: "sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop". | For support, see #xubuntu | See also: !ubuntu and !xubuntu-channels | 10:46 |
| [chr0n0s] | inversekinetix, try insatalling xfce then, it's a replacement for gmone | 10:46 |
| tiago | has gusty gibbon got a commercial repository yet? | 10:46 |
| Gate | inversekinetix: is Gnome or KDE better? its all your situation and opinion. | 10:46 |
| schnoonix | how come when i did sudo apt-cache search xgl it didnt find anything lsusr ? | 10:47 |
| inversekinetix | i have no idea, only had it for 2 days | 10:47 |
| Adriaan_ | Atomic_UE: the Lice CD? | 10:47 |
| Adriaan_ | *live | 10:47 |
| [chr0n0s] | schnoonix, use sudo apt-get install xserver-xgl | 10:47 |
| lsusr | schnoonix try to add the universe repo. | 10:47 |
| Gate | GTG. | 10:47 |
| schnoonix | E: Couldn't find package xserver-xgl | 10:47 |
| schnoonix | how do i update my package list so it searches more places ? | 10:48 |
| Atomic_UE | Adriaan_, ah you said you got the alternative cds didn't you? | 10:48 |
| lsusr | schnoonix u have ubuntu feisty? | 10:48 |
| Adriaan_ | Atomic_UE: yes I have | 10:48 |
| schnoonix | gusty gibbon | 10:48 |
| [chr0n0s] | schnoonix, use sudo apt-get update | 10:48 |
| tiago | has gusty gibbon got a commercial repository yet? | 10:48 |
| Adriaan_ | Atomic_UE: the PC is a bit old :) | 10:48 |
| schnoonix | [chr0n0s]: i did that and it still couldnt find any XGL stuff | 10:49 |
| punzada | So I just mounted an ext3 partition and set the file permissions to 777 on the entire folder, I can delete the files on it by clicking delete but if i right click i can't 'move to trash' | 10:49 |
| detra | my soundcard doesn't work ... inside sound setting it says... could not connect to sound server ... anyone know why ? | 10:49 |
| punzada | anyone know how to fix that | 10:49 |
| [chr0n0s] | schnoonix, used update ? | 10:49 |
| predaeus | neumind, it's probably bugged. You could alternatively try the alternative install cd with a text installer. | 10:49 |
| b0r3d | can someone help me out | 10:49 |
| lsusr | schnoonix apt-get update is just for getting new package list, if you already had added more package-sources. ill see, wait | 10:49 |
| saloxin | MaTrIx-X: backporting iscsitarget from hardy works like a charm. it can't find the kernel module on startup though | 10:50 |
| Atomic_UE | Adriaan_, my bad, well if every cd you burn fails the test, but everything has been correct and you think they're fine, just give the install a shot | 10:50 |
| b0r3d | i'm really running into a serious problem | 10:50 |
| predaeus | neumind, the text installer provides a wizard too. | 10:50 |
| ifireball | hi I just got a system-crash during an upgrade to gusty, how can I resume it? | 10:50 |
| Adriaan_ | Atomic_UE: I tried this too, but it failed and I had to reinstall feisty | 10:50 |
| [chr0n0s] | ifireball, start over, it takes 30-40 mins anyways | 10:50 |
| b0r3d | i have a modem which i'm getting it to work on my ubuntu so that i could use the internet on it but the driver of this modem needs build-essential linux-headers-generic as dependencies. how do i know the correct version of them to d/l? | 10:51 |
| irc | y me? Ubuntu suppose to be easy... | 10:51 |
| neumind | why when i reinstaling ubuntu on particion part window is stuck? | 10:51 |
| lsusr | schnoonix edit your /etc/apt/sources.list and add this: deb http://nl.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ gutsy universe | 10:51 |
| Adriaan_ | Atomic_UE: maybe I have to change SAO to TAO | 10:51 |
| Atomic_UE | Adriaan_, hmmmm in that case I'd try and burn the ISOs on another burner, that's about all I could think of | 10:51 |
| murlidhar | i use opera and i see that it looks like windows 95. i dunno what should be done . can anybody help me | 10:51 |
| moDumass | hey my "listen" media player crashes on start any ideas why? | 10:51 |
| Atomic_UE | Adriaan_, unless ubuntu supports installing from the ISO images while they're on the hdd like fedora/redhat/mandriva do | 10:52 |
| ifireball | [chr0n0s]: it was right in the middle of upgrading gdm, I'm running dpkg --pending --configure in single mode right now, not sure I can even get back to gui at this stage | 10:52 |
| lsusr | schnoonix then apt-get update again and search for xgl | 10:52 |
| === marvin_ is now known as BlobbyDay | ||
| ifireball | [chr0n0s]: I just want to know what the "cleanup" stage does | 10:53 |
| schnoonix | ahh ok its adding all those lsusr thanks | 10:53 |
| schnoonix | its going to be a while due to me being caped :( | 10:53 |
| schnoonix | so bbl and thanks again :) | 10:54 |
| lsusr | schnoonix have a nice day :) | 10:54 |
| tiago | has gusty gibbon got a commercial repository yet? | 10:54 |
| Adriaan_ | Atomic_UE: I could try this indeed but I doubt that it works | 10:54 |
| === Odo is now known as kirner | ||
| tds | tiago, ubuntu doesn't need commercials | 10:55 |
| Phobos | Hi. Could you tell me what to do to make fortune show up an entry automatically upon opening a terminal ? | 10:55 |
| tiago | tds: how about vmware? | 10:55 |
| === kirner is now known as Odo | ||
| saloxin | MaTrIx-X: ah ok. you need to backport the hardy "iscsitarget", install the resulting deb's and then m-a a-i iscistarget to make the modules | 10:55 |
| tds | tiago, yes, i think it's in the repos but i use virtualbox | 10:55 |
| ifireball | Phobos: add a command to your .bashrc file | 10:55 |
| Nallep | Phobos: add /usr/bin/fortune to your .bashrc | 10:56 |
| Phobos | Nallep: Thanks a lot :) | 10:56 |
| tiago | tds: its not in the main repo thats why im asking if there is a commercial one, and yes i also use virtualbox but i need vmware right now | 10:56 |
| ifireball | Phobos: thers sould be an "if" statment in that file that runs stuff only if it's an interactive shell put it in there otherwise you'll break your system | 10:56 |
| Phobos | thanks for telling me | 10:57 |
| Nallep | Phobos: ya, maybe not so good to put in .bashrc, I have my fortune in .bash_profile | 10:57 |
| nb-au | okay guys, im going to burn a dvd, click write to disc, looks like all is well, then some process starts using 100% of both my cores, and the system slows right down, drive light and main light continue to flash in unison, whats stranger is just pressing the reset button the drive will still go as if its burning... takes a power off then power on to stop :S | 10:57 |
| Steffan | Morgen! | 10:58 |
| Reng | is there such a backup program in ubuntu similar os x leopard "time-machine"? | 10:58 |
| MaTrIx-X | saloxin: you actually got it successfully backported? | 10:58 |
| tds | tiago, i'm not sure it would be entirely legal to put commercial apps in the repos | 10:58 |
| ifireball | Nallep: again, you have to make sure that you're in an intractive shell, regardless of wether its .bashrc or .bash_profile | 10:58 |
| nb-au | isnt vmware in add/remove? | 10:58 |
| Nallep | Phobos: if [ -x /usr/bin/fortune ] ; then /usr/bin/fortune fi place that in your .bash_profile | 10:58 |
| nb-au | "vmware player" is in add/remove | 10:59 |
| Morphius | does the 'Gutsy" live cd support RT61 network adaptors? | 10:59 |
| SoulChild | i have a problem with my vesa-buffer, i have a samsung WXGA Notebook, X runs on 1280x800 which is the optimal resoloution, but hwinfo --framebuffer does not list 1280x800 , does that mean that my framebuffer does not support that res??? | 10:59 |
| nb-au | Morphius, use it and find out? | 10:59 |
| tiago | tds: they have it in the feisty repo, but there doesn't appear to be a gusty commercial repo as of yet | 10:59 |
| Mba7eth | morning all ..... I'm planning for Linux+ ..... is there a specific distro they use for linux+ ? | 10:59 |
| g0th | hi | 10:59 |
| biotrox | hoiiii | 10:59 |
| nb-au | vmware player = vmware? right? | 10:59 |
| saloxin | MaTrIx-X: yes. using http://wiki.thekerns.net/technology:howto:simplesidbackport with "hardy" instead of "sid" | 10:59 |
| Morphius | nb-au: I'm lazy, wanted to see if anyone knew before I actually did any work. :) | 10:59 |
| nb-au | so anyone else getting a dvd lockup when burning? | 11:00 |
| lsusr | can someone tell me how to tell the graphs in munin to start from new ? :) | 11:00 |
| neopsyche | Do i need to "add user to db" using mysql .. (i installed lamp) | 11:01 |
| g0th | I compiled a custom kernel with make-kpkg --initrd binary-arch but when I try to boot it it fails at the root partition or fs, can anyone tell me what kernel options I need to sucessfully boot? | 11:01 |
| Mba7eth | morning all ..... I'm planning for Linux+ ..... is there a specific distro they use for linux+ ? | 11:01 |
| Nallep | nb-au: vmware has several different virtualization products, server/player/workstation, if your just looking for something to run a virtual machine, then vmware player is good | 11:01 |
| MaTrIx-X | saloxin: could you perhaps send me your resulting debs? | 11:01 |
| nb-au | well the player is definately in gutsy | 11:01 |
| Bonste1 | i farted | 11:02 |
| g0th | I use the latest ubuntu, I tried to install linux-2.6.23, I have an intel ich8 host controler, my hd is sata, I installed ubuntu on /dev/sda3 with ext3 fs | 11:02 |
| saloxin | MaTrIx-X: they're kernel and arch dependent? and not error-free. so if backporting is difficult, then you might not want to walk down that road | 11:02 |
| Nallep | nb-au: vmware player and server and free, workstation costs some, but is worth it if you want really good virtualization | 11:02 |
| g0th | What do I need to check to get booting from my root fs working? | 11:02 |
| ksivaji | systemsetting problem http://pastebin.com/f5cb63627 | 11:03 |
| MaTrIx-X | saloxin: I'm on AMD64 and the standard 7.10 kernel, if you're on the same then it would be a ball.. I'll surely try and backport it though if not | 11:03 |
| Bonste1 | is there a windows irc channel also? | 11:03 |
| nb-au | hmmm dvds fail coz grnisoimage zombies itself :S | 11:03 |
| saloxin | MaTrIx-X: and the kernel module dont wanna do it's job. im on i386 :-/ | 11:03 |
| nb-au | Bonste1, probably | 11:03 |
| nb-au | or maybe not cd just burnt :S | 11:03 |
| SoulChild | hey all,.... i have the following device id: 0ac8:c302 how do i find out which device that is,... i mean which file in /dev/ is that ??? | 11:04 |
| Bonste1 | any1 got the wii mote to work on gutsy? | 11:04 |
| saloxin | SoulChild: lspci? | 11:04 |
| Atomic_UE | Bonste1, ##windows | 11:04 |
| Bonste1 | thats a real channel? | 11:04 |
| MaTrIx-X | saloxin: no problem. I'll try and do it from a virtualbox first just to be sure... I really do need iscsitarget though, because I built this linux box ($500) just for that particular usage..and come to find that it is broken in 7.10. I had been using it in feisty on another machine quite succesfully. I'm so tired of these crippled smb share speeds. iscsi blows it away. | 11:05 |
| Atomic_UE | Bogaurd, yes | 11:05 |
| tiago | any one know how to dual head ati under gusty? | 11:05 |
| SoulChild | saloxin: no it is a USB device | 11:05 |
| Bogaurd | Atomic_UE, huh? | 11:05 |
| Atomic_UE | Bogaurd, sorry wrong person | 11:05 |
| Bogaurd | np | 11:05 |
| Atomic_UE | Bonste1, yes | 11:05 |
| saloxin | MaTrIx-X: not to insult this channel, but i have better experience with iscsi on centos5 | 11:05 |

| b0r3d | hi. how to list the packages i have installed? | 11:06 |
| saloxin | SoulChild: when you plug it it should report its device name in dmesg | 11:06 |
| Ademan | hey sorry i'm still dicking with git-daemon and i was wondering where git-daemon-export-ok goes, because it doesn't seem to be working in the project_root/.git directory, but then again there are a myriad of other things i could be doing wrong... | 11:06 |
| papsk | hi everybody | 11:06 |
| stefg | b0r3d: dpkg -l | 11:06 |
| Bonste1 | why they talking about linux in #windows channel? | 11:07 |
| Atomic_UE | b0r3d, In Synaptic Package Manager, on the left go to Status > Installed | 11:07 |
| papsk | can anybody tell me how to install CANON PIXMA ip1880 printer? | 11:07 |
| MaTrIx-X | saloxin: thanks for the suggestion, I'll consider giving it a try on another drive. I'm trying to stick with Ubuntu on my main install for now though, just to show support. I like the direction its moving in. | 11:07 |
| stefg | Bonste1: ask there | 11:07 |
| SoulChild | saloxin: dmesg only says: uvcvideo: Found UVC 1.00 device Vega USB 2.0 Camera. (0ac8:c302) | 11:07 |
| saloxin | MaTrIx-X: no need for a virtualbox for a backport - it's non intrusive. installing from source is worse | 11:07 |
| tds | Bonste1, wow, ubuntu server actually has a windows chat | 11:08 |
| papsk | i have downloaded .rp files on my desktop | 11:08 |
| Atomic_UE | Bonste1, we don't know ask them, maybe linux is their secrete fantasy | 11:08 |
| ivan_ | hello, i'm trying to install xubuntu 7.10 und have started the installation cd with the second option. "secure graphic mode" or something like that. it is asking for username. what should I type in? | 11:08 |
| Atomic_UE | secret fantasy even | 11:08 |
| MaTrIx-X | saloxin: are you sure about that? I had accidentally installed some other deb for the -4 version from some other distrib's site, and it did a number on me | 11:08 |
| saloxin | SoulChild: then it might not present a disk interface to the os. there's suposed to be some camera applications that handle such cameraes. i don't have a camera though | 11:08 |
| Ademan | ivan_: in the installer? it's a username of your choice, you might choose "ivan" | 11:09 |
| MaTrIx-X | saloxin: it could have been a tainted deb though I suppose | 11:09 |
| ivan_ | Ademan, thanks, and password? | 11:09 |
| === goodhabit is now known as yangogolak | ||
| saloxin | MaTrIx-X: i just did the backport. installed 2 pkgs like zlib-devel and something. then installed | 11:09 |
| CyberAgeVoodoo | Hello all | 11:09 |
| Ademan | ivan_: again, it's up to you, i suggest one combining letters and numbers, and you should be able to remember it easily | 11:10 |

| titanix88 | hi everyone | 11:10 |
| Atomic_UE | hi titanix88 | 11:10 |
| saloxin | MaTrIx-X: the kernel module didn't come straight out of the box though. had to install the resulting -source.deb, use module-assistant, and then actually copy the kernel module in place | 11:10 |
| MaTrIx-X | saloxin: alright, I'll go ahead and try it then... if it has any funny surprises for me I guess it'll just be time to learn how to undo it. haha. | 11:10 |
| saloxin | hihi. sounds like a plan | 11:11 |
| ivan_ | Ademan, I'm afraid it doesn't work. The installation cd is also a live system. when I start it secure graphic mode, it ask for username and password X logging | 11:11 |

| _blitz_ | there is a person near my house who is a great fan of windows xp.he somehow managed to learn a bit of ubuntu and is now actually making money with it.he asks money from people for installing it on their computer and also takes tuition classes on ubuntu and makes money.the people here does not know much about linux. are his actions legal? | 11:12 |
| Ademan | ivan_: oh, wierd, sorry i thought you were talking about the installer, anyways why do you need to use safe graphics mode? | 11:12 |
| CyberAgeVoodoo | legal yes. ethical no | 11:12 |
| MaTrIx-X | saloxin: sorry to be a nag, it's a funny feeling being on up there in the IT world and still being an oblivious newbie in a parallel computing world (linux) | 11:12 |
| titanix88 | _blitz_: absolutely legal. | 11:12 |
| ifireball | _blitz_: VERY, you shoule encortage him for spreading Ubuntu\ | 11:13 |
| titanix88 | CyberAgeVoodoo: Why not ethical? | 11:13 |
| _blitz_ | this is not spreading ubuntu | 11:13 |
| ivan_ | Ademan, the normal mode doesn't work with my graphic card, it starts everything but only the half of the screen is used | 11:13 |
| CyberAgeVoodoo | if you charge for classes you aren't really an expert at... being an educated novice does not mean you should charge for time | 11:14 |
| CyberAgeVoodoo | that is the ethical part | 11:14 |
| ifireball | _blitz_: helping ppl to isntall and use it is definitly considered "spreading" in my book | 11:14 |

| Ademan | yet* | 11:15 |
| kfoltman | Atomic: sorry, I thought I'm pasting just one, last line | 11:16 |
| CyberAgeVoodoo | Atomic, well that is a broad question... but by the original post. it didn't seem like they knew alot | 11:16 |
| stefg | titanix88: you've got two options with your MX4. either install nvidia-glx-legacy, or get the nvidia 9631 driver (last one that supports MX4) and install manually. Notice that you'll have to reinstall after evey kernel update then | 11:16 |
| ivan_ | Ademan, thanks. i cannot find anything neither | 11:16 |
| Atomic_UE | _blitz_, if the people do not have the knowledge themselves to install ubuntu, then he would be considered as providing a service | 11:16 |
| kfoltman | Atomic: by the way, pastebins wouldn't work for me because my firefox crashes on textareas :) | 11:16 |
| titanix88 | stefg : hmm...:| | 11:17 |
| CyberAgeVoodoo | take myself for example. I am EXTREAMLY rusty in my unix/linux last time I worked on it was redhat 7.1 and now I am taking the time to relearn | 11:17 |
| titanix88 | _blitz_: it is good for overall linux adoption. | 11:17 |
| ifireball | _blitz_: 1. the GPL doesn't say anything against selling, 2. if, as result of his actions more ppl are using ubuntu that wouldn't use it otherwise, its spreading | 11:17 |
| _blitz_ | but why should he make money with it.Ubuntu is distributed for free and in my view he is killing the spirit | 11:17 |
| stefg | titanix88: or simply cough up 30 bucks for a new card ... | 11:18 |
| pepie34 | how can i be in invisible mode in MSN (in pidgin) and keep being able to send messages? | 11:18 |
| ifireball | _blitz_: if you want to demostrate the spirit, just give out free CDs next to his store... | 11:18 |
| titanix88 | _blitz_: it's the same as canonical accepts money for professional support.:-/ | 11:18 |
| _blitz_ | ah ..i forgot .he made people believe that ubuntu is not free.i thought i had told that | 11:19 |
| lacuce | Hello! Can someone help me on Gutsy and printing using Epson? | 11:19 |
| ifireball | _blitz_: besides RedHat, Novell, Mandriva been selliung Linux for years | 11:19 |
| Bonste1 | lacuce: install drivers? | 11:19 |
| lacuce | not exactly, just a few information | 11:19 |
| Nallep | _blitz_: he's selling his time to coach people on using ubuntu, he thinks his time is worth something, and that's just fine. | 11:19 |
| titanix88 | _blitz_: if so then he is subject to gpl violation. | 11:19 |
| Dumptruck | Is there a equivalent to Alcohol 120 or Daemon tools for linux? | 11:20 |
| twostepsback | _blitz_: he should make money, but should tell the gpl to his students as well. clearly. | 11:20 |
| Rolf_LAP_Skaar | i must say, i usually use FreeBSD , and ubuntu is impressive easy to use for an first time user. with more tweaking and more compatible drivers it could take the fight to MS, battleing for their windows users. | 11:20 |
| stefg | lacuce: no autodetection? Epson ususally works out of the box | 11:20 |
| ifireball | titanix88: no he's not, there is nothing in the | 11:20 |
| CyberAgeVoodoo | anyone have any problems upgrading the default jre 1.4.2 ? I followed the java instructions and it did update.. But I can't get it to recognize the changes in firefox or frostwire | 11:20 |
| Nallep | _blitz_: well he should also be telling people that ubuntu is available for free | 11:20 |
| ifireball | titanix88: no he's not, there is nothing in the GPL that limits what you can SAY about the software | 11:20 |
| lacuce | I haven't got the printer yet... so i'm just wondering of Epson C90 works out of the box | 11:20 |
| twostepsback | yes of course he should | 11:20 |
| stefg | !printer | lacuce | 11:21 |

| lacuce | and I'm still waiting for the Gutsy installation disk | 11:21 |
| lacuce | Thank you, I'll check on that | 11:21 |
| _blitz_ | Ok whatever you people people think.In my view he is doing wrong and as an ubuntu user i will do everything in my limit to stop him.good bye guys .time to get working | 11:21 |
| twostepsback | but it is possible that only he has access to a download and then he is legally allowed to hoard as well | 11:21 |
| titanix88 | ifireball: if he says ubuntu is not free, that means he is restricting further redistribution of it. it's against gpl. | 11:21 |
| Nallep | _blitz_: but as for selling his time to teach people how to install/use it, there's nothing wrong with that, entire companies have been created and are thriving from that business model | 11:21 |
| roved2101 | ifireball: I've never paid for Mandriva and all those distro that have a charge option is usually for support or proprietary software included | 11:21 |
| Atomic_UE | It could be considered that there is also a tiny bit of blame on the people who believe everything he says is true | 11:21 |
| twostepsback | but that generally does not happen | 11:21 |
| Atomic_UE | without doing their own tiny bit of research | 11:22 |

| Nallep | mhb: I think you can configure updatedb to skip past /home, and leave that for the tracker | 11:26 |
| mhb | I know 'locate' does, but what uses that? | 11:26 |
| saloxin | mhb: no part of the system uses it, it's an aid for system administrators without a gui | 11:26 |

| predaeus | Keitaro, /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist | 11:48 |

| frodon | Can someone help me about XGL, my computer is using it with (i think) no reason, how to switch to normal xserver ? | 11:48 |
| Keitaro | predaeus: will that help in not loading the dial-up driver and install the file myself in insmod? | 11:48 |
| sladok | alo | 11:48 |
| sladok | kako si | 11:48 |
| stefg | Gaming1: you can't backup the system you're running on, so i'd recommend euterh using a Live CD, or some specialized mini-distro. e.g. http://www.inside-security.de/insert_en.html | 11:48 |
| sladok | asl psl | 11:48 |
| funy_girl | h | 11:48 |
| predaeus | Keitaro, insmod just loads kernel modules/drivers at runtime, it does not install anything actually | 11:48 |
| sladok | aallllllllloooooooooooo | 11:48 |
| iobelisk | stefg, predaeus, you mean i have to type in the image/kernel address and root ID within menu.lst for my second install myself? but the last time i switched from sabayon to gentoo, i did not need to do it. i changed root from live cd and reinstalled grub. exactly like what i'm doing now, it automatically detected my other OS. its really strange | 11:48 |
| knighthawk | interesting when I type sudo sh -c 'md5sum /etc/X11/xorg.conf > /var/lib/x11/xorg.conf.md5sum' I get permission denied | 11:49 |
| predaeus | Keitaro, btw. I think it is recommended to use modprobe instead of insmod | 11:49 |
| knighthawk | root has rw | 11:49 |
| timob | knighthawk: its coz the redirect is running as u | 11:49 |

| vika | i got ubuntu live cd but it does not have compiz | 11:50 |
| inversekinetix | whats up iobelisk? | 11:50 |
| vika | do i need the dvd version to get it | 11:50 |
| predaeus | thanks ops | 11:50 |
| fyrestrtr | vika: what video card do you have? | 11:50 |
| stefg | Gaming1: you can't dump a mounted partition into a compressed image. you need to process it from the outside | 11:51 |
| knighthawk | timob, ah okay so should I change the permissions on xorg.conf.md5sum or is ther a way to do the redirect as root? | 11:51 |
| vika | 8500gt | 11:51 |
| fyrestrtr | You need to download the drivers for it before compiz will work. | 11:51 |
| fyrestrtr | knighthawk: sudo -i, then do it. | 11:51 |
| Gaming1 | So, can I boot Ubuntu from the live CD and do it? | 11:51 |
| vika | but i dont even have the compiz icon to start or anythhing | 11:51 |
| bojan | kumanovo | 11:51 |
| iobelisk | predaeus, yes, i changed root from live cd into my ubuntu partition, i do grub-install and put the hard disk addresss in this case /dev/sda2 and when i nano /boot/grub/menu.lst it still is the same | 11:51 |
| fyrestrtr | vika: system > preferences > appearance > effects | 11:52 |
| inversekinetix | are you dual booting iobelisk? | 11:52 |
| halim | ifireball: is it possible to run the videos with the desktop effects? | 11:52 |
| stefg | Gaming1: yes... but you'll need the drive for burning, so better use some smalller distro and run it from RAM | 11:52 |
| Keitaro | predaeus: the command says command not found :/ | 11:52 |
| predaeus | iobelisk, hm then I don't know sorry. | 11:52 |
| predaeus | Keitaro, what command? | 11:52 |
| fyrestrtr | has anyone noticed an issue with gnome panels not retaining their state? | 11:53 |
| knighthawk | fyrestrtr, thanks I was wondering how you got to real root in ubuntu (not used to Debian distros) | 11:53 |
| stefg | fyrestrtr: long time issue with gnome... just kick it once, twice on the nose, then it will behave | 11:53 |
| timob | knighthawk: you could try .... | sudo cat > myfile | 11:53 |
| fyrestrtr | stefg: I got tired of kicking ... there is no solution? My foot is getting tired. | 11:54 |
| timob | knighthawk: that wont work try ... | sudo tee myfile | 11:54 |
| iobelisk | inversekinetix, yes i am, i had gentoo on, i wanted to try out opensuse so i rewrote that partition. my main OS is ubuntu. opensuse rewrote grub on the mbr, but it does show ubuntu on the boot menu, so when i choose it to boot, the hard drive seems to stall at a blank screen after a minute or so, i figure grub's messed up so i boot the buntu live cd, change root, install grub but ti still shows my previous install in 'other OS' in the boot | 11:54 |
| Taffy-nay | does anybody know of any work done to get an xbox 360 usb wireless adapter to work with Ubuntu, GNU\Linux? | 11:55 |
| Gaming1 | stefg: oh,yeah....I'll get the INSERT....I already have Damn Small Linux downloaded, think I can use that? | 11:55 |
| Keitaro | predaeus: sorry the blacklist command and i jus tried modprobe, says module not found :/ | 11:55 |
| Keitaro | brb | 11:55 |
| inversekinetix | sorry iobelisk, i just had problems with grub and xp/ubuntu | 11:55 |
| predaeus | iobelisk, I don't know if this is related, but as far as I know each OS provides its own menu.lst. | 11:55 |
| predaeus | iobelisk, unless you share /boot | 11:56 |
| enry | i'm searcing a matematic equation solver, integral etc... | 11:56 |
| stefg | Gaming1: Insert and DSL are related. but Insert is specialized on rescue and recovery. Make things easier | 11:56 |
| === Korg is now known as MS20 | ||
| Keitaro | brb | 11:56 |
| inversekinetix | could the supergrub disk help in this kind of situation? | 11:56 |
| Gaming1 | stefg: Then Insert it is.....Thanks. I'll get back later. Bye | 11:56 |
| iobelisk | predaeus, yes they do, but if i install grub from here, it should take precedence over others and rewrite grub on the mbr. what i don't understand is why i am unable to boot from hdd into ubuntu even after i reinstall grub | 11:56 |
| neopsyche | UBUNTU STUDIO ROCKS! | 11:56 |
| MS20 | anybody got a clue how to install themes for compiz? | 11:57 |

| MilhousePunkRock | Hello everyone! | 11:57 |
| iobelisk | inversekinetix, believe it or not, i ran SGD, twice! | 11:57 |
| mikep | hi everyone. can anyone help out on inding any info on compiling wine for as a standalone app like it was done with google's picasa? | 11:57 |
| MS20 | stef: they are normal themes... was talking about the compiz ones | 11:58 |
| inversekinetix | yikes! | 11:58 |
| MilhousePunkRock | I wonder why a static IP configuration for ethernet will not work on the Gutsy CD, but on the Feisty one... o.O | 11:58 |
| bg | mikep, are you familiar with gcc, g++? | 11:58 |
| MilhousePunkRock | MS20: #ubuntu-effects | 11:58 |
| predaeus | iobelisk, hm sorry I don't know, I also have my fights with grub from time to time | 11:58 |
| MS20 | k thks | 11:59 |
| elkbuntu | /!\ spamminess warning, cleaning some old bans out :) | 11:59 |
| BubblegumTate | I swear to god | 11:59 |
| mikep | a bit.. but i'm not so familiar with wine's inner workings | 11:59 |
| iobelisk | inversekinetix, since i have /home on a separate partition, i guess i could reinstall ubuntu. but man, it gets tiring having to reinstall ubuntu everytime i try an OS. | 11:59 |
| BubblegumTate | firefox is sing my wine install of flash | 11:59 |
| BubblegumTate | that's not cool | 11:59 |
| vika | hey whats recommended ubuntu cd or dvd download | 12:00 |
| inversekinetix | ive only had ubuntu for 2 days and have installed it 4 times | 12:00 |
| MilhousePunkRock | vika: CD probably, DVD only if you don't have access to the net afterwards to install more stuff | 12:00 |
| stefg | iobelisk: just learn to master the syntax in menu.list. it's not that complicated, and you can even teach update-grub to take notice of other distros kernels | 12:00 |
| cerneula | hello everyone | 12:00 |
| LinuxInside | hehe | 12:00 |
| KeitaroS | predaeus: sorry im back modprobe says module not found :( | 12:00 |
| bg | If you have a .c file just compile it with winegcc instead of normal gcc | 12:00 |
| ifireball | vika: depends | 12:00 |
| vika | i got fast net so should i just get dvd so in that case i dont need to worry bout installing things later | 12:00 |
| elkbuntu | and some more... | 12:00 |
| vika | isd compiz on the cd coz i put it in and couldnt find it to run | 12:01 |
| predaeus | KeitaroS, then the module has a different name or is not available. | 12:01 |
| Taffy-nay | \exit | 12:01 |
| stefg | Linux is not windows \ | 12:01 |
| iobelisk | stefg, well i sort of do know the syntax in menu.lst, as long as i have image/kernel and root address it is not a problem. the thing is though i am reinstalling grub over here but it still does not work. any ideas why? | 12:01 |
| predaeus | KeitaroS, what are you trying to achieve? | 12:01 |
| ifireball | vika: if you have fast net get the CD, and just d/l things with synaptic rather then installing them from the cd | 12:01 |
| schnoonix | how come there are alot of certain things i cant install like plugins for music or firefox ? | 12:02 |
| KeitaroS | predaeus: aww maan :( then what can i do to use insmod because the dial-up drivers install automatiaclly :P | 12:02 |
| stefg | iobelisk: you'd need to elaborate and possibly paste your menu.lst to !pastebin | 12:02 |
| inversekinetix | schoonix what are you trying to install? | 12:02 |
| cerneula | I'm new to linux. Does anybody know how to change the description's length on desktop icons? And set their behaviour like Windows. That is when the icon/item is selected it shows all the description. Otherwise is limited to a line. Thank you very much!! | 12:03 |
| stefg | schnoonix: your /etc/apt/sources.list seems broken | 12:03 |
| schnoonix | well i wanted to install flash for firefox and it didnt install and i wanted to install GStreamer Extra Plugins for Totem Movie Player | 12:03 |
| predaeus | KeitaroS, please state what the problem is exactly and what you are trying to do. I think you are trying to load some module yourself and prevent it from being loaded automatically at boot. But I am not sure. | 12:03 |
| schnoonix | stefg, how do i find out if it is or how can i fic it | 12:03 |
| Y0da^ | where I can find the settings to adjust my touchpad in gnome? | 12:03 |
| inversekinetix | !ubuntu-restricted-extras | 12:03 |
| ubot3 | Ubuntu Restricted Extras is a new way of getting common "restricted" codecs, etc. See !RestrictedFormats | 12:03 |
| stefg | !easysource | schnoonix | 12:03 |
| ubot3 | schnoonix: source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic | 12:03 |
| iobelisk | stefg, my menu.lst is fine really, the kernel address etc everything is okay, i had sabayon installed on another partition, i rewrote that with an opensuse installation, my main os is ubuntu. when i was installing suse, it detected ubuntu so on the first reboot i tried to load ubuntu to see if suse got it right but the hard disk would get quiet a little while after hitting enter and i'd just get a black screen, so i booted live cd of ubunt | 12:04 |
| schnoonix | ahh so i swap /etc/apt/sources.list with what was just generated ? | 12:04 |
| izike | hey i had a file in /tmp/ and when i rebooted the system it seems like ubuntu deleted it, there is anyway i can get this file back? | 12:05 |
| stefg | iobelisk: big harddisk and ol bios ? | 12:05 |
| LinuxInside | trash? | 12:05 |
| stefg | schnoonix: right. run sudo apt-get update after you did that | 12:06 |
| iobelisk | stefg, no, two year old bios, 80 gig hdd on a laptop. i've dual booted before with other distro's but honestly, ive had to reinstall grub everytime, the thing is this time that did not fix the problem | 12:06 |
| BubblegumTate | Firefox is using my wine install of the flash plugin but obviously I want it to use the native non-free flash plug-in how do I correct this (Gutsy-32bit) | 12:07 |
| stefg | iobelisk: my theory is that your bios can't access beyond cylinder 1024. so grub is fine, but the kernel might simply be beyond the 1024 cylinder limit | 12:07 |
| predaeus | iobelisk, did you try to boot another distri and chroot/grubinstall from there? | 12:07 |
| KeitaroS | predaeus: ok this is what im trying to do: i got dial-up drivers for my sysdtem and it installs by itself, i previously had feisty fawn 7.04 then updated to 7.10 but as it updated the dial-ip wouldnt work anymore so im trying to install the drivers again | 12:07 |
| badmutha | hello, does anyone know the help channel for compiz? | 12:07 |
| predaeus | iobelisk, one other than the livecd | 12:07 |
| stefg | iobelisk: and check that LBA is enable in bios | 12:08 |
| schnoonix | badmutha: #compiz-fusion | 12:08 |
| badmutha | schnoonix: thanks | 12:08 |
| LinuxInside | join #compiz-fusion | 12:08 |
| steph_ | hello | 12:08 |
| KeitaroS | predaeus: now the error that comes up when installing is it cannot activate the drivers because it already exists but the dial-up still does not work, when looking in the log of the dial-up process it says file or directory not found when dialing out :( | 12:08 |
| schnoonix | anyone know of a good IRC client for ubuntu, im using finch atm but not a fan. I came from mIRC so i want abit of an easy crossover | 12:09 |
| saloxin | schnoonix: xchat? | 12:09 |
| iobelisk | predaeus, well now that i wrote grub over it does not detect suse. but i could pop the install cd back and boot from hdd from there, let me try that, thank you for all your help! :-) | 12:09 |
| iobelisk | exit | 12:09 |
| ba5e | what is that program that times your boot into linux? | 12:10 |
| schnoonix | i used to use xchat when i used ubuntu ages ago, was wondering if there was anymore | 12:10 |
| stefg | !info bootchart | ba5e | 12:10 |
| ubot3 | ba5e: bootchart: boot sequence auditing and chart generator. In component main, is extra. Version 0.9-0ubuntu7 (gutsy), package size 97 kB, installed size 192 kB | 12:10 |
| predaeus | KeitaroS, hm yes. I am not sure. But check "lsmod" to see if the driver is already loaded on boot. If it is, you could rmmod it so it is unloaded and try to install your version of the driver. But I am not sure of the outcome and if your drivers will mess up with the drivers that come with ubuntu. | 12:10 |
| saloxin | schnoonix: otherwise pidgin is the new allinone chat client | 12:10 |
| schnoonix | saloxin: sorry pidgin is what i use not finch, Its ok i just dont like how it tabs chan windows with msn chats | 12:11 |
| Chemist_ | hi there | 12:12 |
| KeitaroS | predaeus: hehe thnx even if i unload drivers there are no dial-up drivers of my modem that came with ubuntu so no loss :) may i ask how to unload drivers from lsmod using rmmod or something similar? | 12:12 |
| ba5e | stefg: ubot3 thanks!! | 12:12 |
| Chemist_ | are there known issues with wireless network manager in gusty?? | 12:12 |
| stefg | oh yes | 12:12 |
| LinuxInside | i use wireless LAN | 12:13 |
| predaeus | KeitaroS, you can use lsmod to list all current running drivers (that is drivers that are running as modules and not compiled directly into the kernel). You can unload any driver/module from the kernel at runtime with rmmod (rmmod modulename). to load a driver use "modprobe modulename" | 12:13 |
| JmZ | hey | 12:13 |
| predaeus | KeitaroS, look at "man lsmod" "man modprobe" for details (quit the man pages with "q") | 12:14 |
| Chemist_ | just i've noticed under feisty i could get wifi pretty much anywhere in the our house but since i installed gusty | 12:14 |
| Chemist_ | its flaky at best | 12:14 |
| tapas | you gotta love how computers can shoot thjemself in the foot | 12:14 |
| KeitaroS | predaeus: thnx im trying that right now ^_^ | 12:14 |
| stefg | Chemist_: that assumingly relates to the gutsy kernel. Try disabling ipv6 | 12:14 |
| tapas | i'm in the process of upgrading to gutsy | 12:14 |
| stefg | !ipv6 | Chemist_ | 12:14 |

| Gruelius | im getting Kernel panic's about Kmalloc when i try to boot up, anyone able to help | 12:15 |
| JmZ | when i play a game, the audio is choppy and my FPS is low | 12:15 |
| tapas | so apt asks, hey shall i restart this and that service? | 12:15 |
| tapas | i say nay, i reboot later.. [gdm was among them, and since i did the upgrade in X that would be a bad idea] | 12:15 |
| stefg | !boot | Gruelius | 12:15 |

| LinuxInside | jmz: say it clearly~ | 12:16 |
| Chemist_ | thanks ubots | 12:16 |
| tapas | next morning i wake up to find the scrensaver having kicked in | 12:16 |
| Gruelius | stefg: eh? ive taken out quiet n splash so i have the error if you want it | 12:16 |
| tapas | and what does it use to authenticate the user? | 12:16 |
| tapas | libPAM | 12:16 |
| tapas | ;) | 12:16 |
| tapas | so no login possible to answer the rest of apt's questions | 12:16 |
| chovy | help -- i upgraded and now I can't get the login screen | 12:16 |
| eNons3nse | so there is a section for "widget layer" in the compiz options. where do i get these widgets and how to i install them? | 12:16 |
| JmZ | alright linuxinside, when i play a game (any game so far) on ubuntu, my FPS is much lower than what i should be getting. The audio also becomes choppy/skips a lot | 12:16 |
| tapas | luckily i could ssh into the box and manually kill xscreensaver | 12:16 |
| Gaming1 | stefg:Sorry to be back so soon, since I've already downloaded Ubuntu 7.10 Live CD, wouldn't it be simpler to just remove Feisty and then install Gutsy? | 12:16 |
| JmZ | out of games, the audio is fine | 12:16 |
| chovy | all i get is a the Kbuntu loading...then it goes blank. | 12:17 |
| stefg | Gruelius: i'm guessing at acpi or apic . try adding noacpi nopic nolapicc | 12:17 |
| stefg | Gruelius: i'm guessing at acpi or apic . try adding noacpi nopic nolapic | 12:17 |
| tapas | chovy: notebook? | 12:17 |
| stefg | Gaming1: what happens if Gutsy just doesn't work for you ? | 12:17 |
| Gruelius | stefg: kk, why would it develop tho? | 12:17 |
| tapas | chovy: if so, X probably dies a gruesome death.. | 12:17 |
| Gaming1 | stefg: what do you mean? | 12:17 |
| stefg | Gaming1: what happens if Gutsy just doesn't work for you and you want feisty back ? | 12:18 |
| kjetilho | I'm trying to put the root partition in LVM on software RAID1, but the default initramfs can't sort it out. is this a known limitation? any workarounds? | 12:18 |

| linux__alien | whats the easiest way to install VMware Server in 7.10 | 12:18 |
| linux__alien | is anyone using it ? | 12:18 |
| linux__alien | can someone let me know please? | 12:18 |
| stefg | !vmware | linux__alien | 12:19 |
| Gaming1 | stefg: Then I would be at a loss......so this means that you can rollback changes after you upgrade to Gutsy? | 12:19 |
| ubot3 | linux__alien: VMWare Player is in Ubuntu's !Multiverse repository (package "vmware-player"), and http://www.easyvmx.com/easyvmx.shtml can create VMs for it. For VMWare Server, instructions can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware - See also !virtualizers | 12:19 |
| stefg | Gaming1: you're dealing with one-way tickets if you upgrade or flatten feisty and install gutsy. a backup is the only way of going back | 12:19 |
| chovy | tapas: nope. desktop. something about acpid not configured yet | 12:20 |
| chovy | and errors out | 12:20 |
| Gaming1 | stefg: I have about 120 GB of data, so I am including all the three OS, I am wondering how many DVD's I am going to write.... | 12:20 |
| stefg | Gaming1: so do you have separate partitions for your OS and data ? | 12:21 |
| tapas | chovy: try hitting ctrl-alt-f1 and see if you get to a console | 12:21 |
| chovy | tapas: nope | 12:22 |
| JmZ | anyone help with my fps/audio problem? | 12:22 |
| tapas | chovy: then try starting the box in single user mode so you can investigate the problem | 12:22 |
| Gaming1 | stefg: Let's see I have two Hard disks one 160 GB another 20GB. I don't think there is any need to backup the 20 GB harddisk. So in Windows XP, I have two partitions, one for OS and the other for data (Games,Softwares) and I have one partition each for Ubuntu and Fedora....That's it | 12:23 |
| tapas | JmZ: well it depends on many factors.. what games do you play? what audio server[s] do you use? | 12:24 |
| m4ytt | could any 1 tell me what this problem is Errors were encountered while processing: | 12:24 |

Don't know how to get to a command line where i might be able to edit xorg.conf. Where is the best place to look for information on this? | 13:02 |

| kopanda | This is getting pretty frustrating... | 13:03 |
| LiMaO | Trip: what version of ubuntu are you trying to install? if 7.10, just use 7.04 instead | 13:03 |
| LiMaO | kopanda: gutsy still presents some minor bugs and issues | 13:03 |
| jscinoz | glxgears is 3d accelerated right? | 13:03 |

| dalinian | My sound stopped dropped to a very very low level. Does anyone have an idea how to fix it? | 13:30 |
| AL3X-admin | So I think that with the new NVidia I'll have more... | 13:30 |
| m4ytt | ompaul i havent recieved a message | 13:30 |
| AL3X-admin | Its problem of the drivers ? (100.14.19) | 13:31 |
| hjmills | AL3X-admin, did the ati do compiz? | 13:31 |
| AL3X-admin | yes (with XGL) (No Aiglx support in the drivers) | 13:31 |
| m4ytt | wastrel i went to recovery mode and it said cannot set LC_ALL to default locale: no such file or directory will lsb_release-a sort it out | 13:32 |
| hjmills | AL3X-admin, thats probably the difference - as 100fps is faster than the human eye you shouldnt have any problems | 13:32 |
| tarzeau | http://www.ryzom.org/donation/new | 13:32 |
| AL3X-admin | yes, but the problem is that in games like counter strike, as many FPS > better. There is a diference between playing with 24FPS(the human eye) and 400FPS | 13:33 |
| g0th | hi | 13:33 |
| AL3X-admin | Can I do some "Tweak" or something... ? | 13:33 |
| g0th | I just compiled and installed a custom kernel | 13:33 |
| Konam | hi | 13:33 |
| g0th | I also compiled nvidia-new with "m-a a-i nvidia-new" | 13:33 |
| Konam | I'm having problems with the gnome-screensaver update | 13:34 |
| g0th | it successfully creates a kernel module nvidia.ko | 13:34 |
| g0th | but if I do: modprove nvidia-new or modprobe nvidia it gives: | 13:34 |
| Konam | before the update everything was fine but after it now it crashes when I leave the screensaver active | 13:34 |
| g0th | FATAL: Error running install command for nvidia_new | 13:34 |
| Konam | is in a random moment | 13:34 |
| === ompaulafk is now known as ompaul | ||
| g0th | I guess for a similar reason xorg doesn't start | 13:35 |
| AL3X-admin | Ok, well, I guess that I'll have to play only with 100FPS :( | 13:35 |
| AL3X-admin | I have another cuestion | 13:35 |
| g0th | it all works if I manually load it "insmod /lib.../nvidia.ko | 13:35 |
| Y0da^ | that Q7Z also looks pretty promising. | 13:35 |
| g0th | so how can I make it "officially" work under ubuntu? | 13:35 |
| arnath | hi, i'm short a connection on my switch, but i do have a few network cards laying around. if i install ubuntu server on a 800 mhz duron pc and share internet, will it put a lot of strain on the old pc or give me a slow connection on whatever pc is attached to it? | 13:35 |
| AL3X-admin | I have ADSL, and I obtain my IP by DHCP, and in windows I'm able to change my IP typing in CMD.exe > ipconfig /release ; ipconfig /renew .... How can I change my IP in ubuntu 7.10 ? | 13:37 |
| PriceChild | AL3X-admin, sudo dhclient | 13:37 |
| PriceChild | AL3X-admin, that will renew your dhcp lease | 13:37 |
| shadebug | ok, I just tried installing gutsy gibbon on a desktop and it crashed at 96% (completely removed libntfs9), what's my best course of action? reinstall or can it be salvaged? | 13:38 |
| AL3X-admin | I already tried it | 13:38 |
| AL3X-admin | but it gets the same IP | 13:38 |
| AL3X-admin | :( | 13:38 |
| PriceChild | AL3X-admin, because that's the ip your dhcp server has assigned you | 13:39 |
| PriceChild | AL3X-admin, why do you want a new ip?1 | 13:39 |
| nanonyme | hmm, what was the other way besides fakeroot for creating deb packages? | 13:39 |
| AL3X-admin | Yeah, but look. In windows, by typing ipconfig /release ; ipconfig /flushdns ; ipconfig /renew I get new IP | 13:39 |
| hjmills | nanonyme, checkinstall? | 13:40 |
| nanonyme | ah | 13:40 |
| nanonyme | thanks | 13:40 |
| AL3X-admin | I want a new IP to "haack" the rapidshare limit xD | 13:40 |
| PriceChild | AL3X-admin, we're not going to help you with that. | 13:40 |
| g0th | anyone? | 13:40 |
| AL3X-admin | joo :( | 13:40 |
| AL3X-admin | Its just an IP change :( | 13:40 |
| hjmills | AL3X-admin, linux is doing the same thing - just your router remembers your mac address so you get the same IP each time | 13:40 |
| PriceChild | AL3X-admin, purchase their premium account or w/e if they require it. | 13:40 |
| AL3X-admin | I have modem | 13:40 |
| hjmills | AL3X-admin, the rapidshare terms are clear - live with limits or pay them money | 13:41 |
| AL3X-admin | xD ok :) | 13:41 |
| AL3X-admin | Thanks :) | 13:41 |

| m4ytt | wastrel does this mean anything to ya. LC_ALL=(unset). xserver-xorg broken or not fully installed. when i updated i did get error messages saying 4 things were broken when installed | 14:22 |
| Sharpie | [chr0n0s]: yes, i have 2 ntfs partitions, one primary one logical, and around 31gb free space for linux | 14:22 |

| worthawholebean | Is the alternate cd's install any different from the DVD's text mode install? | 14:23 |
| [chr0n0s] | Sharpie, then you can make 1 more primary and 1 logical, i think primary for /home and ( swap + / in logical) | 14:23 |
| Sharpie | [chr0n0s]: uh, that's now good |: | 14:24 |
| Sharpie | [chr0n0s]: how about if i make / primary, and /home primary and a logical swap after home? | 14:24 |

| Sharpie | [chr0n0s]: you can | 14:25 |
| [chr0n0s] | then do it, where is the problem ? | 14:25 |
| Sharpie | [chr0n0s]: it lets you create 2 primary partitions one after another, but only 1 logical after primary | 14:25 |
| defrysk | Slaughte1, select human theme ? | 14:25 |
| worthawholebean | Has anyone else had trouble installing 7.10 on an iMac? | 14:25 |

| Sharpie | [chr0n0s]: oh wait no you can't | 14:26 |
| Slaughte1 | @defrysk: Yeah, but the fonts was messed up by the other there, and it doesn't revert when I choose human. | 14:26 |
| [chr0n0s] | Sharpie, no need to be sure, just go and try it out.. if you can, then make 3 partitions, else go for hat i said | 14:26 |
| [chr0n0s] | hat i said* | 14:26 |
| Sharpie | [chr0n0s]: but you can make a logical, and after that a primary and another logical | 14:26 |

| gluonman | Question: I have a / (5gib), /opt (3gib), /home (30gib), and swap (1gib) partitions. I'm kind of new to all of this, so I may sound stupid. When I download packages from synaptic, they have tended to exclusively use the limited space that I have on my root. The root is out of available space I have a few more things I need to install. Is it possible to use the space on another partition for those installations? | 14:29 |
| roberto | la chat italiana? | 14:30 |
| Sharpie | [chr0n0s]: ok, how's this (already created 'em in the manager, haven't said ok yet): 1) swap, 2gb, logical. 2) home, 18gb, primary. 3) root, 15gb, logical | 14:30 |
| dalinian | Neil_, You can do apt-get install ubuntu-desktop, but things get quirky when you do. | 14:30 |
| defrysk | Slaughte1, I have adjusted the sizes to my prefernces , but i believe originally they were something like 9 | 14:30 |

| orgthingy | because u cant! | 14:36 |
| Slaughte1 | defrysk: Well, some of the fonts were set to 10, and changing all seems just about right. I tested the High contrast large fonts theme, as I'm using a LCD TV as monitor for my notebook, and that theme changed all the fonts. I'll just stick to 10 for now, thanks for your input! | 14:36 |

| gluonman | Anyone who can help me please. My installations from synaptic are exclusively using the space in my root partition (only 5gib on it). Is it possible for my installations to use the space in my other partitions, like my /home of 30gib? | 14:39 |
| hjmills | sensouci, try re-adding it to the panel? | 14:39 |
| adrian | the gutsy pachages should be compatibl;e with lenny | 14:39 |
| adrian | right? | 14:39 |
| hjmills | gluonman, no | 14:39 |
| hjmills | gluonman, most programs get put in /usr so you could put that on a seperate drive | 14:39 |
| darkhack | maybe but why don't u test it out | 14:39 |
| gluonman | hjmills, so once I've used up all the space on my /root I cannot install anything more? | 14:39 |

| hjmills | hastesaver, look in the wiki : help.ubuntu.com | 14:41 |
| gluonman | hjmills, I'll probably do that. Someone earlier had recommended to me, when I was learning about partitioning my hdd, that my root be that small and my /home be large. I have no idea why, it's proving very annoying right now. | 14:41 |
| adrian | i used debian for ages now :D | 14:41 |
| adrian | i`m used to it | 14:41 |
| adrian | tryed ubuntu to grate work for newbies | 14:41 |

| gluonman | hjmills, I open it and then it gets stuck scanning the disk. | 14:42 |
| hjmills | gluonman, because most people install a load of programs then dont need any more after that so /usr wont grow after that | 14:42 |

| gluonman | hjmills, I didn't really understand your comment about installing "a load of programs they don't need any more..." and the /usr growing. Can you clarify that point? | 14:43 |

| hastesaver | gluonman: backup *everything* -- repartitioning can be very risky | 14:45 |
| stefg | gluonman: and it might me a good idea to move that folder over to the /home, and symlink it back to the old place. So you have a well filled apt cache in case of reinstall | 14:46 |

| baty | how can i install apps in a live user | 14:47 |
| ompaul | steevc, wait a while | 14:47 |
| m4ytt | hjmills because ive got no gui | 14:47 |
| Caleb_ | ok, even after i tick all those boxes (universe ect.) it still gives me "The software source for this package bcm 43xx-fwcutter is not enabled" also, when i boot up into ubuntu, i get bios error 81 and have to press alt-f4 to get it to boot up. I get a similar message for the ati restricted driver. | 14:47 |
| stefg | gluonman: 5 GB is perfectly fine for / if you don't need the whole *-dev stuff. Ubuntu in whole is just about 7 GB . | 14:48 |
| DarkMageZ | baty, which application are you trying to install and kubuntu or ubuntu? | 14:48 |
| hjmills | m4ytt, course - you can login to terminal and install links (sudo apt-get install links) to get a text based web browser. also irssi is a text based irc client | 14:48 |
| sot65 | I have feisty (dynamic IP- ADSL). In my Network Settings under DNS tab there is my router's(microcom AD2636) address only[10.0.0.2] under the DNS servers. Is it normal?? often I shut down and restart router to be able to connect. | 14:48 |
| baty | im triying to install for xubuntu the servers for boting by lan | 14:48 |
| hjmills | sot65, thats normal - it says that your pc should ask the router where places on the internet are which is fine | 14:49 |
| gluonman | stefg, I get your point, but I've run out of space and can no longer install what I need to install. So I need more space. | 14:49 |
| hjmills | gluonman, i recommend 8gb for / | 14:49 |
| stefg | gluonman: it goes llive sudo mv /var/cache/apt/archives /home , then ln -s /var/cahe/apt/archives /home/archives | 14:49 |
| m4ytt | hjmills so i just type in sudo apt-get instal links then what | 14:49 |
| stefg | gluonman: without my typos, of course :-) | 14:49 |
| gluonman | stefg, that command will move things to my /home? | 14:49 |
| dominiko | I installed Gutsy, I can't use MSN with Pidgin (requires SSL and default pidgin from Gutsy is not compiled with SSL) What's the best way to fix it? | 14:49 |
| m4ytt | hjmills and how do i get irssi to work | 14:50 |
| stefg | gluonman: yes, that moves the apt-cache from / to the /home partition and symlinks it back | 14:50 |
| baty | was just misstyping | 14:50 |
| hjmills | m4ytt, (install not instal) then you can run `links www.google.com` to get to google. irssi is more complicated and if you are not familiar with the command line it is prob better to avoid it and do this from windows | 14:50 |
| baty | sry ppl | 14:50 |
| sot65 | hjmills:so ISP's IP not needed there. OK. thanks | 14:50 |
| gluonman | stefg, the command without your typos is: llive sudo mv /var/cache/apt/archives /home , then ln -s /var/cache/apt/archives /home/archives? | 14:51 |
| stefg | gluonman: so run du or baobab (the disk usage analyzer) where your space is used. yes, the command is right | 14:51 |
| hjmills | m4ytt, do `sudo apt-get -f install > apt-output.txt` then copy that file using `cp apt-output.txt <dest>` to a floppy or to a usb stick then reboot and post the contents of that file to pastebin | 14:51 |
| === thijsdl is now known as hfsdo | ||

| JimmyDee | Taza, hurm, it should run a standard vesa driver for console anyway | 15:18 |

| vika | is that the onli difference | 15:20 |
| andres | thanks | 15:20 |
| swmiller | yes | 15:20 |
| jrib | vika: ubuntu uses kde by default and kubuntu uses kde by default. They are the same otherwise. They use the same repositories and you can always install kde on ubuntu or gnome on kubuntu | 15:20 |
| gluonman | ubot3, thanks. | 15:21 |
| ubot3 | You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-) | 15:21 |
| vika | also is better to install the cd or to install dvd version | 15:21 |
| jrib | vika: ugh, I messed up the first sentence, but swmiller got it right... | 15:21 |
| Taza | KDE sucks somewhat, Gnome sucks a lot. | 15:21 |
| Taza | Gnome sucks to the point where Linus Torvalds hates it | 15:21 |
| faileas | lol | 15:21 |
| faileas | I think any DE sucks until you beat it into submission ;) | 15:21 |
| JimmyDee | linus torvalds. pfft what does he know....lol | 15:22 |
| Taza | Gnome, in fact, utterly sucks. It's like emulating a mac running Mac OS 9 on an otherwise decent box. | 15:22 |
| GNUdog | Taza: Linus Torvalds hates C++,but KDE is in C++ | 15:22 |
| vika | do both versions come with compiz | 15:22 |
| jrib | vika: no difference. dvd just has all of the main and restricted repositories on it. So, you can use the dvd as a repository and save some bandwidth if you want | 15:22 |
| Taza | vika: Both versions come with everything. In fact, try Xubuntu. | 15:22 |
| vika | why x ubuntu | 15:22 |
| Taza | It's the least sucking of all the ubuntu variations. | 15:22 |
| JimmyDee | if you can get around the interface try fluxbuntu | 15:22 |
| swmiller | who cares what Linus likes you what you like | 15:22 |
| minimec | Taza: Linus does not hate it... He just asks the developpers whether they or the user should decide how to use and configure software. | 15:23 |
| Taza | If you like Gnome, you should get your head checked. | 15:23 |
| andres | hello, someone how want to help me, :D | 15:23 |

| faileas | actually, i think on ubuntu, Gnome is the most "polished". I *prefer* KDE usually, but i settled for gnome modified for a windows style single taskbar | 15:23 |
| jrib | andres: best to just ask the channel your next question and see if anyone knows the answer | 15:23 |

| monkeyBox | Taza, hmm.. well, how do I assign DNS servers manually (ie, if I want to use opendns instead of what dhcp assigns me) | 15:24 |
| faileas | Taza: if you don't like it, or want something different, there's a lot of other distros? ;) | 15:24 |
| chippy | anyone know if gedit can remember open documents from last time it was running? | 15:24 |
| JimmyDee | Taza, if you dont like it. write your own its a free world you know | 15:24 |
| vika | i think ill pick kubuntu i dont mind the kde version better then gnome | 15:24 |
| gluonman | stefg, my gparted is still not working. Stuck in the "scanning all devices" stage. | 15:24 |
| vika | and if u got compiz all the same in the end | 15:24 |
| Taza | Can't there be a version that is "debian with better packages"? | 15:24 |
| summer_s4 | can someone help me create something that i will base off ubuntu 7.10 (i wanna call it nexten) | 15:25 |
| Taza | faileas: I can't install any distro that doesn't come with a ready package for TrueCrypt | 15:25 |
| W1ZrD | I wish we could installed ati drivers that works :( | 15:25 |
| GNUdog | chippy: gedit keep a copy you edited,hmm,$filename~,maybe,not sure | 15:25 |
| faileas | Taza: why not build it? | 15:25 |
| stefg | gluonman: i hate gparted... won't trust it from breakfast to dinner | 15:25 |
| Taza | faileas: Not enough HDD space. | 15:25 |
| gluonman | stefg, what should I use, then? | 15:25 |
| Taza | faileas: Otherwise, I'd have done that under Debian. | 15:25 |
| swmiller | Truecrypt offers the deb | 15:25 |
| JimmyDee | Taza, so the problem is, youre too cheap to buy a hard disk? | 15:25 |
| stefg | gluonman: drop the idea that you need a partition resize | 15:25 |
| Taza | JimmyDee: No, I cannot install any other hard disk | 15:26 |
| jrib | vika: great, if you want to try what you would get with ubuntu and xubuntu, then you just install the "ubuntu-desktop" and "xubuntu-desktop" packages. Then at the login screen you can choose what window manager to use with the "options" button | 15:26 |
| Taza | JimmyDee: I have APLENTY of space ONCE I get TrueCrypt working. | 15:26 |
| JimmyDee | Taza, and why is this? | 15:26 |
| Flynsarmy | What're the major differences between KDE and Gnome? I didn't even see an option in the ubuntu installer to install KDE | 15:26 |
| Taza | JimmyDee: Possibly because I'm working on nonstandard hardware? | 15:26 |
| gluonman | stefg, and if I still like the idea of using another partition like the /var that you recommended? | 15:26 |
| JimmyDee | Taza, that could cause a grave headache and heartache | 15:26 |
| W1ZrD | what do I need for someone to take control over my system in order to help me re-install video drivers? | 15:26 |
| stefg | gluonman: for what reason ? | 15:27 |
| swmiller | Taza: Get the deb package right form the truecrypt site | 15:27 |
| GNUdog | Flynsarmy: no,Ubuntu only provide Gnome and Kubuntu only provide KDE on both CD | 15:27 |
| dystopianray | Flynsarmy: kubuntu is what gets you kde | 15:27 |
| Taza | swmiller: THey don't offer a debian package. | 15:27 |
| vika | what i really wanan do is run xp at the same time on one of the faces of the cube is this hard to achieve | 15:27 |
| Varka | Flynsarmy: you can change desktop by installing ubuntu-desktop, kubuntu-desktop, xubuntu-desktop and so on after installing one of the derivates | 15:27 |
| gluonman | stefg, you're the one who mentioned it would be helpful to me. | 15:27 |
| swmiller | yes they do | 15:27 |
| swmiller | that is where i got mine | 15:27 |
| Taza | swmiller: No, they don't | 15:27 |
| dystopianray | Flynsarmy: kde gives you more power and control, gnome is dumber but simpler | 15:27 |
| Taza | swmiller: I checked. | 15:27 |
| JimmyDee | xp on one of the faces, wooo wish on | 15:27 |
| swmiller | check agion | 15:27 |
| gluonman | stefg, that's the only reason I was concerned about it. | 15:27 |
| Flynsarmy | dystopianray: Gnome is better for a linux newbie? | 15:27 |
| swmiller | I got there yesterday | 15:27 |
| vika | ive seen it done | 15:27 |
| dystopianray | Flynsarmy: hrrm maybe | 15:27 |
| stefg | gluonman: i said it /could/ be useful on a server for special purposes. the average home machine doesn't need it. you have your apt-cache separate now, that' | 15:28 |
| Taza | swmiller: There ISN'T a debian package for TrueCrypt | 15:28 |

| Borysek | hello | 15:28 |
| stefg | s all you'll nedd | 15:28 |
| Taza | swmiller: You need to recompile the kernel which I cannot do. | 15:28 |
| jrib | vika: it's easy, just check out virtualbox or vmware for example | 15:28 |
| jrib | !virtualizers > vika (read the private message from ubotu) | 15:28 |
| Taza | Or at least have the required files for that. | 15:28 |
| GNUdog | gnome is choosen by many Distro as default desktop envirment | 15:28 |
| Varka | Flynsarmy: its said that the integration of gnome with ubuntu is smoother than the integration of kde in kubuntu | 15:28 |
| gluonman | stefg, well, okay. I just sounded to me like you were recommending it. | 15:28 |
| dystopianray | Flynsarmy: I think it'd be very annoying actually | 15:29 |

| gluonman | stefg, but just for future reference, if I ever need to do anything with my partitions, what would you recommend as an alternative to gparted? | 15:30 |

| sc0tch | I've got a shadow around a small frame (like an old notification popup) on my desktop, it looks like it was something that did not clean up when closed (using gnome+compix on gutsy) any way to determine where it came from, and kill it/clean it off the desktop. (annoying as sits on top of any window. | 15:31 |
| faileas | moope1: wrong place to ask, but what you seekl is the HP drive format tool | 15:31 |

| tadzik_ | kromciuch: ya mean yer live cd, or yer installed system? | 15:51 |
| dystopianray | kromcuich: a livedvd? | 15:51 |
| Bonste1 | gluonman: is not hard to install stuff but just gotta no the process then ull c is easy and is safer | 15:52 |

| gluonman | jrib, "no such file or directory." | 15:55 |
| steevc | tadzik_: I thought that was a bad move for an imcomplete upgrade | 15:55 |
| kromcuich | fluxd: yes, but i want to dual boot, and the ubuntu install killed the windows OS bootloader. i dont have the windows install CD, but i have an image of it, as I started with it first | 15:55 |
| tadzik_ | not sure | 15:55 |
| tadzik_ | try sudo apt-get autoremove | 15:55 |
| tadzik_ | changes anything? | 15:55 |
| jrib | At0mic_P1: the safe way to do it is to rebuild the source package. Or even better, request a backport. But you should upgrade. Maybe you can burn an alternate cd somewhere and use that? | 15:56 |

| stinger05 | hi, why do i get this message while trying to install packages using aptoncd? : " Cannot find filename or size tag " | 16:01 |
| gluonman | jrib, okay. The commands that I used were, "sudo rm -r /var/cache/apt/archives" on the first line, then "sudo ln -s /var/cache/apt/archives /home/archives". | 16:02 |
| andres | vc pode probar com #ubuntu-br | 16:02 |
| gluonman | jrib, that's what did it. | 16:02 |
| JebJoya | LJAnanrdan: do something like "sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup1" | 16:02 |
| tadzik_ | steevc: i tried 'autoremove' then stopped it 'ctrl + c' and got the same error | 16:02 |
| jrib | gluonman: so do you want to redo that or go back to old way? | 16:02 |
| misc__ | tadzik_: hmm, it appears I have a CRC error on it. Well there ya go | 16:02 |

| Phisikus | pff | 16:03 |
| jrib | gluonman: (that line is wrong by the way) | 16:03 |
| gluonman | jrib, well, the point was to free up space on my /. But I need to be able to install a few things from synaptic, which seems to need those archives to be in my /. So, if that's the case, then I need to put them back. | 16:03 |
| DBAlex | which filesystem do I use? | 16:03 |
| Bonste1 | Mishaal: super = window key | 16:03 |
| Phisikus | ir4d0m: abuse? | 16:03 |
| DBAlex | and do I need a swap partition, and how big should it be in MB? | 16:03 |
| Phisikus | ir4d0m: why do you want to change your ip? | 16:03 |
| Mishaal | Bonste1: i tried it. it does not work :( | 16:03 |
| cousin_luigi | DBAlex: double of physical RAM, usually | 16:04 |

| LJAnanrdan | there is no change even after sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup1 | 16:04 |
| DBAlex | what filesystem do I use for the SWAP and for UBUNTU? | 16:04 |
| ir4d0m | yeah im trying to get back on there... | 16:04 |
| ebirtaid | with 1 gb ram you will NOT use 2gb swap | 16:04 |
| DBAlex | ext2 or 3? | 16:04 |
| jrib | DBAlex: swap | 16:04 |
| fstx_ | andres: lets resynchronize. What happens when you put the mouse cursor on the speaker icon, right-click, and select open volume control. | 16:04 |

| tadzik_ | not a mounting point | 16:04 |

| cdm10 | Pidgin 2.2.2 hasn't seemed to have made it into the repos (yet). I know that the package management people have strict rules regarding upgrades, but 2.2.2 is a security update that fixes a denial of service issue, so it should be put into main. | 16:19 |

| nn | is there a reason firefox turns all grey and stuff every now and then? | 16:30 |
| scguy318 | Ubuntu-fan_: for TeamSpeak you'll need to start it with aoss | 16:30 |
| JebJoya | anyone got a quick and dirty way i can check if my board has PCI-express? (i suspect i don't...) | 16:30 |
| scguy318 | Ubuntu-fan_: I think that's in alsa-utils or something | 16:30 |
| cdm10 | nn: that means it's frozen... or Ubuntu thinks it's frozen. | 16:30 |
| astro76 | voidus, not that I'm aware of | 16:30 |
| Ubuntu-fan_ | scguy318: aoss ? | 16:30 |
| Matic`Makovec | Hello there. I just accidently deleted couple of files (with shift+del). Is there _any_way at all to retrieve them? They were quite important | 16:30 |
| astro76 | voidus, are you trying to accomplish something in particular? | 16:30 |
| voidus | astro76: yes | 16:30 |
| fstx_ | andres: so the module is loaded | 16:30 |
| scguy318 | Ubuntu-fan_: aoss is OSS -> ALSA wrapper | 16:30 |
| tims108 | hi | 16:30 |
| scguy318 | Ubuntu-fan_: TeamSpeak is OSS only, you probably dont want that | 16:30 |
| boulba | nobody can tell me what is it ? | 16:30 |
| scguy318 | Ubuntu-fan_: and its actually in alsa-aoss | 16:31 |
| cdm10 | Matic`Makovec: 1) backup, 2) don't use shift-del. As far as I know, there's no "undelete" utility for Ext3 like there is for DOS/Windows partitions. | 16:31 |
| Whitor | Matic`Makovec: there is software that can attempt to retrieve it for you | 16:31 |
| Matic`Makovec | Which is? | 16:31 |
| Ubuntu-fan_ | scguy318: lol sorry I am completely lost... I dont know the abreviations... I am farely new to ubuntu and linux in general | 16:31 |
| chippy | JebJoya, system->prefs-> hardware information say anything? | 16:31 |

| scguy318 | Ubuntu-fan_: let me sum it up then :P start TeamSpeak with the aoss command | 16:32 |
| cdm10 | nn: Ah, you should tell him that then :) | 16:32 |
| mehevi | Matic`Makovec the best solution is to stop using the filesystem you want to recover from AT ONCE and use another disk | 16:32 |
| scguy318 | Ubuntu-fan_: if you want more than one program to be able to use your sound card | 16:32 |
| Ubuntu-fan_ | scguy318: All I know is that my mic works on my ubuntu which is installed on my desktop... and it works with teamspeak (eventhough teamspeak then takes control over the sound and I cant play any other sound other then teamspeak) | 16:32 |
| scguy318 | Ubuntu-fan_: exactly | 16:32 |

| scguy318 | Ubuntu-fan_: sudo apt-get install alsa-aoss | 16:32 |
| Ubuntu-fan_ | scguy318: and how to I start it up with "aoss" ? (sry if I am being stupid ^^) | 16:33 |
| scguy318 | Ubuntu-fan_: I mean, sudo apt-get install alsa-oss | 16:33 |
| JebJoya | chippy: not that i can see, looks agp only, was just looking | 16:33 |
| nn | Matic`Makovec: in a terminal i'd do 'mount -o remount,ro /' (or whatever file system files are on), this will make the file system read only preventing overwriting the files, then you need to find some way to get one of the ext2 undelete utilities, assuming you are using ext[23] instead of say xfs | 16:33 |
| JebJoya | chippy: that's annoying then... | 16:33 |
| scguy318 | Ubuntu-fan_: thats for installation, then make a shortcut or run from Terminal: aoss /path/to/teamspeak/binary | 16:33 |
| Ubuntu-fan_ | scguy318: I have "Alsa Mixer" chosen, should I take the OSS in sound preferences? | 16:33 |
| larson9999 | what's the aptitude command to see which package contains a specific file? i manned aptitude but don't see it. | 16:33 |
| nn | Matic`Makovec: problem is a chicken and egg one of sorts.. If you install anything, you're likely to overwrite them.. | 16:33 |
| fstx_ | andres: if you do 'alsactl names -f an; more an', do you see the card there? | 16:33 |
| mehevi | Matic`Makovec well I dont know about what you would use for ex3 recovery but to quit writing to your filesystem ensures it wont get overwritten (your only concern when it comes to dataloss) | 16:33 |
| chippy | JebJoya, anything on pc specs ? | 16:33 |

| ubot3 | dexterstill: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :) | 17:01 |
| Whitor | dexterstill: whats up ? | 17:01 |
| koudelka_ | sharpie: is it usb? | 17:01 |
| faileas | msingh: i've run ubuntu on less... | 17:01 |
| scriptdevil | msingh: xubuntu will do well on it | 17:01 |
| sharpie | koudelka_: no | 17:01 |
| dexterstill | I've instaled UBUNTU 7.10, but it doesn't recognize my slave HD... | 17:01 |
| msingh | but plain ubuntu does not come with a lighter desktop, does it? | 17:02 |
| nuba1 | about the new ati fglrx drivers... can someone tell me how to install them inside an LTSP chroot | 17:02 |
| Irv | ok thanks the ati card I have is giving me fits I was not sure about nvidia | 17:02 |
| taime1 | anyone know why ubuntu slows down to almost a halt when there is no internet connection present? | 17:02 |
| dexterstill | I'm realy a newbie... | 17:02 |
| nuba1 | on 7.10 | 17:02 |
| whyameye | is there a restricted drivers config file for gutsy somewhere? | 17:02 |
| scriptdevil | msingh: xubuntu is my recommend | 17:02 |
| faileas | msingh: you can select any DE. just install the right packages | 17:02 |
| koudelka_ | sharpie: can you find them under system -> hardware information | 17:02 |
| Strang3love | after replacing a motherboard and processor, grub starts normally but after making a selection it says "error 21: selected disk does not exist" any ideas? | 17:02 |
| _spi_ | Hi there, Someone can help me: My file system has been remounted Read-only way... !!! why!?!??!!? | 17:02 |
| Dekkharyn | astro76: ... haha oh wow, dosfsck doesn't like this disk at all; "Currently, only 1 or 2 FATs are supported, not 139." Would running checkdisk on dos work? | 17:02 |
| koudelka_ | msingh: i recomend xubuntu too | 17:02 |
| Noir | Is there any way to install nvidia drivers without going through synaptic? | 17:02 |
| boulba | Ubuntu-fan_: just plug in the mic but before 7.10 it didnt work and I was always said that oass was absolutely necessary | 17:02 |
| astro76 | Dekkharyn, yeah maybe try from dos/windows first | 17:02 |
| msingh | ok i'll check out xubuntu cheers | 17:02 |
| scriptdevil | _spi_: well.. check /etc/fstab | 17:02 |
| nuba1 | noir... try envy | 17:02 |
| Dr_Willis | Noir i use the 'restricted-manager' tool for my 4 machines. | 17:03 |
| sharpie | koudelka_: hardware information isn't working for some reason \= | 17:03 |
| nuba1 | search google for it | 17:03 |
| astro76 | Dekkharyn, though dosfsck should fix it fine also.... you backed up? ;) | 17:03 |
| ckennedy | mouted external drive: now I get this You are not privileged to mount the volume 'DRV4_VOL1 | 17:03 |
| pdavid | Strang3love: did you get into a boot prompt command in grub? | 17:03 |
| Dr_Willis | Envy can cause problems in the 'long run' :() | 17:03 |
| Whitor | don't use envy | 17:03 |
| nuba1 | havent found that.. worked every time for me | 17:03 |
| sharpie | koudelka_: and i have this "unable to get data" icon in my tray too | 17:03 |
| boulba | Ubuntu-fan_: in fqct it seems with 7.10 it works w/o aoss, normally | 17:03 |
| astro76 | !envy | 17:03 |
| ubot3 | 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! | 17:03 |
| Dekkharyn | astro76: there's no way I can back that up, it's got 300GB of stuff, it's bigger than all other drives put together | 17:03 |
| sharpie | koudelka_: it popped up when i put a dvd in the drive | 17:03 |
| _spi_ | Hi there, Someone can help me: My file system has been remounted Read-only way... !!! why!?!??!!? | 17:03 |
| defrysk | its not about not using envy , its just not supperted here | 17:03 |
| defrysk | so no envy help here | 17:03 |
| nuba1 | well, in theory all it does is download the restricted drivers and compile | 17:03 |
| koudelka_ | sharpie: hmm it's nothing i know anything about, sorry | 17:03 |
| Ubuntu-fan_ | holy shit | 17:04 |
| nuba1 | why is that bad? | 17:04 |
| Noir | I can't get online with my ubuntu machine at my college because I can't install cisco security agent, so I was woundering if there was more along the lines of a .deb | 17:04 |
| astro76 | Dekkharyn, well I guess then just the critical stuff then.. and cross your fingers ;) | 17:04 |
| Whitor | envy causes problems when upgrading | 17:04 |
| andres__ | fstx_: so, what do you think? | 17:04 |
| Ubuntu-fan_ | boulba: I just tried the testoption for my mic and my laptop went crazy... REALLY load noise | 17:04 |
| jonah | hey guys, how can i make my window title bars smaller, i've reduced the font size but it's not worked, they're a bit fat and clumsy | 17:04 |
| ckennedy | >mouted external drive: now I get this You are not privileged to mount the volume 'DRV4_VOL1 | 17:04 |
| nuba1 | yeah well, upgrading is problematic without envy too | 17:04 |
| Ubuntu-fan_ | boulba: Even when I hit mute it wouldnt stop | 17:04 |
| crdlb | nuba1: 1) it breaks every time you get a kernel upgrade, 2) it really does make upgrades worse | 17:04 |
| Strang3love | boot prompt command? it shows the list of ubuntu kernals or winxp (dual boot) but making a selection for ubuntu gets the error 21, and selecting xp says its not an executable format. | 17:04 |
| Ubuntu-fan_ | dgoeri2s | 17:04 |
| Ubuntu-fan_ | ops | 17:04 |
| nickrud | jonah: same problem, I ended up using spifcity from gnome-look for short title bars | 17:04 |
| koudelka_ | where does readahead save the cache and how to generate a new desktop profile? i know how to do it with boot | 17:04 |
| bjb1959 | I have an odd problem, after a recent automatic patch of gutsy I can't get my monitor to stay on after inactivity. I have shut off power management and screensaver but after about 10 minutes the screen goes black. doesn't happen in opensuse when I boot into it just gutsy. any ideas? | 17:04 |
| defrysk | nuba1, please stop discussing envy here , there is no support for envy in this room | 17:04 |
| Ubuntu-fan_ | I thought he was here ^^ | 17:05 |
| nuba1 | well, it does say that u need to reinstall after kernel upgrade in the scipt | 17:05 |
| LiMaO | jonah: it depends on the theme you're using. some will not let them be smaller | 17:05 |
| defrysk | nuba1, you are trolling please stop | 17:05 |
| astro76 | koudelka_, cache is in ram, type free -m | 17:05 |
| nuba1 | fine fine... then how about someone help me with my problem... new fglrx drivers in a ltsp chroot environment | 17:05 |
| Caleb_ | where can i get the firware for my wireless card? i installed bcm43xx-fwcutter and it didn't suck out the firmware like it is supposed to | 17:05 |
| omega_ | hello | 17:05 |

| sharpie | need help: both DVD drives not working, hardware information isn't working either and i suddenly have a "unable to get data" icon in my tray :/ | 17:05 |
| alienseer23 | how can i get a regular ubuntu install to send out mail via drupal? | 17:05 |
| nuba1 | yes | 17:05 |
| astro76 | koudelka_, that's why many new users say OMG!!! why do I have no free memory, but it's all cache ;) | 17:06 |
| omega_ | how i can write C languaje in ubuntu? | 17:06 |
| ckennedy | >I mounted an external drive: now I get this You are not privileged to mount the volume 'DRV4_VOL1... anyone have an idea of what I messed up? | 17:06 |
| koudelka_ | astro76: so iit puts it in ram during boot?, is there any way to save it to a flash disk and make it load from there during boot? | 17:06 |
| omega_ | how i can write C languaje from my bash in ubuntu? | 17:06 |
| Whitor | =i88888888888888888888888888888kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkomega_: use a text editor | 17:06 |
| Whitor | sorry... cat | 17:06 |
| astro76 | heh | 17:06 |
| bjb1959 | I have an odd problem, after a recent automatic patch of gutsy I can't get my monitor to stay on after inactivity. I have shut off power management and screensaver but after about 10 minutes the screen goes black. doesn't happen in opensuse when I boot into it just gutsy. any ideas? | 17:06 |
| Whitor | omega_: use a text editor | 17:06 |
| ompaul | omega_, you can used any editor, but before you do you might want to sudo apt-get install build-essential | 17:06 |
| astro76 | koudelka_, not sure we're talking about the same thing | 17:07 |
| fstx_ | andres: when I grep after snd in /var/log on my machine i get hits in udev, and in syslog from Networkmanager. Perhaps there is some kind of error message there. | 17:07 |
| fstx_ | ? | 17:07 |
| defrysk | koudelka_, look at usage of ram this way , unused ram is wasted ram | 17:07 |
| forsaken | how do i make it so that a service doesn't automatically run on startup? | 17:07 |
| luca | hello | 17:07 |
| Ubuntu-fan_ | boulba: Well my sound just went haywire... I am glad that my sound still works... it was a really load mechanical screaching... cant describe it | 17:07 |
| defrysk | ram is sooo much fasted then a hard drive | 17:07 |
| bjb1959 | Chris, this is Bart. did you add the umask line? | 17:07 |
| _spi_ | Hi there, Someone can help me: My file system has been remounted Read-only way... !!! why!?!??!!? | 17:07 |
| Strang3love | after replacing a motherboard and processor, grub starts normally but after making a selection it says "error 21: selected disk does not exist" any ideas? | 17:07 |
| nickrud | nuba1: http://www.howforge.com/how-setup-fglrx-8-42-3-and-compiz-ubuntu-gutsy has a working setup, I don't know ltsp and how it would apply; you probably do | 17:07 |
| astro76 | Strang3love, have you checked bios settings? | 17:07 |
| nuba1 | wow... thanks... | 17:07 |
| koudelka_ | eh my question was never about ram, i know my ram i just want to make new profile on what it should cache | 17:07 |
| nuba1 | finally aiglx on ati... only 13 months after nvidia | 17:08 |
| nuba1 | woopee | 17:08 |
| ckennedy | bart. yep.... give me your email address and I'll email you exactly what is listed | 17:08 |
| Pelo | forsaken, if the service is listed in menu > system > prefs > session, uncheck it and then hit save session in the third tab , ( make sure nothing else you don't want on startup is runnning) | 17:08 |
| bjb1959 | bart.burroughs@cox.net | 17:08 |
| Strang3love | astro76, what settings would need to be checked in BIOS? | 17:08 |
| sharpie | need help: both DVD drives not working, hardware information isn't working either and i suddenly have a "unable to get data" icon in my tray :/ | 17:08 |
| thinkl00p | i've got some .avi movies, is there a program in linux kinda like roxio where I can make that into a dvd that'll play on my dvd player? | 17:08 |
| redheat | hi everyone..just need a little healp right here | 17:08 |
| marancio | ciao | 17:08 |
| astro76 | koudelka_, if we're talking about the same thing, the kernel caches disk reads all the time automatically... not sure about tuning it | 17:08 |
| Caleb_ | nevermind i figured it out | 17:09 |
| Pelo | redheat, just ask a question | 17:09 |
| luca | #java | 17:09 |
| Whitor | thinkl00p: I'm sure there is ... let me know when you find it | 17:09 |
| Pelo | luca, /join #.... | 17:09 |
| nickrud | nuba1: when you find out the driver might not be all that, it's easy to back out of, too :) | 17:09 |
| redheat | I'm trying to install gutsy gibbon on my DELL XPS 1330m laptop, and duringthe installation I get this error message (sorry the program ubquity closed unexpectedly) can someone help me please? | 17:09 |
| Whitor | thinkl00p: check out ubuntu-studio maybe ... | 17:09 |
| astro76 | Strang3love, how many hard drives do you have? | 17:09 |
| Pelo | redheat, try wth the alternate install cd, | 17:09 |
| nickrud | redheat: try the alterate install cd | 17:09 |
| Strang3love | 1, 2 partitions | 17:09 |
| forsaken | Pelo, thanks :) | 17:09 |
| redheat | there you go Pelo, I asked a question.. | 17:09 |
| koudelka_ | astro76: i'm talking about readahead. the readahead desktop file i have in /etc/readahead is old and i wonder how i can generate a new one. i know i should add "profle" at the end of the kernel line in grub to generate a new boot profile. | 17:10 |
| redheat | what? | 17:10 |
| redheat | what alternate CD? | 17:10 |
| nickrud | !alternate | 17:10 |
| ubot3 | 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 | 17:10 |
| nuba1 | nickrud... no other driver works | 17:10 |
| lexis_nexus | hi | 17:10 |
| nuba1 | on 7.10 xrandr 1.2 is not supported by the older drivers | 17:10 |
| redheat | Im sorry I don't know the alternate CD? is this error common? | 17:10 |
| nuba1 | its not an option I'm afraid | 17:10 |
| astro76 | koudelka_, oh ok wow, I wasn't even familiar with that | 17:10 |
| lexis_nexus | I am trying to setup a ltsp | 17:10 |
| * Pelo should tag team trouble more often | 17:10 | |
| nickrud | nuba1: ah. Well then better than nothing. I was disappointed on my 200m, and besides, I find suspend really important | 17:11 |
| redheat | Pelo, nichrud, please don't leave me hangin' like this. What alternate CD? | 17:11 |
| Noir | Is there any .deb or any way to install nvidia drivers on an ubuntu box thats not connected and cannot be connected to the internet? | 17:11 |
| nuba1 | theres a workaraound for that though | 17:11 |
| lexis_nexus | does anyone have some experience with thin clients | 17:11 |
| nuba1 | I read in the relase notes | 17:11 |
| bjb1959 | ckennedy: chris, it looks like it's trying to mount /media/DRV4_VOL1 is there a folder in your media file with that name or in the root file system with that name? | 17:11 |
| Zvezdichko | hello, how could I remove all these kernel versions out of my distro after so many updates | 17:11 |
| Zvezdichko | ? | 17:11 |
| nickrud | redheat: read up, I gave ubotu's factoid | 17:11 |
| Pelo | redheat, not that I know of, but when the install fails apparently randomly with the live cd the alternate install cd usualy solves the problem , you can get it from the www.ubuntu.com dl section , just check the box for alternate cd just below the download now button | 17:11 |
| luca | someone knows an italian channel?? | 17:11 |
| luca | someone knows an italian channel?? | 17:11 |
| Pelo | luca #ubuntu-it | 17:11 |
| nuba1 | anyway, I can either use old fglrx driver on feisty or the new fglrx on gutsy... so I think I'll choose the latter | 17:12 |
| koudelka_ | astro76: i downloaded bootchart and i'm looking to see if there's way i can reduce the boot time. i'm also thinking that i might use my compactflash to have /swap and mabe root on to get better response times | 17:12 |
| nickrud | redheat: http://releases.ubuntu.com/7.10/ look lower on the page for a download link | 17:12 |
| luca | thanks!! | 17:12 |
| nuba1 | unless there is a good reason not too | 17:12 |
| lexis_nexus | is there an up to date tutorial for the LTSP | 17:12 |
| Konam | can someone take a look to this bug I've filed: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-screensaver/+bug/157725 | 17:12 |
| lexis_nexus | for ubuntu | 17:13 |
| ubot3 | Konam: Error: This bug is private | 17:13 |
| astro76 | koudelka_, compactflash is slow | 17:13 |
| nickrud | nuba1: none that I can think of, with that howto. It makes debs, so it's easy to test | 17:13 |
| omega_ | <ompaul>when i build the essential, now i can work whit the C language | 17:13 |
| astro76 | koudelka_, I would think ram or nothing | 17:13 |
| nuba1 | lexis... simply apt-get install ltsp-server-standalone | 17:13 |
| temp1234 | bjb1959, I've had that problem with a bunch of distros | 17:13 |
| koudelka_ | astro76: the response time is still much faster then a regular hdd. | 17:13 |
| lexis_nexus | yes | 17:13 |
| redheat | can you tell me anything about this error? I mean is there another away around it beside the alternate CD..itś another 700 MB of data to be downloaded gonna take some time guys.. | 17:13 |
| ompaul | !compile | omega_ | 17:13 |
| ubot3 | omega_: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!) | 17:13 |
| lexis_nexus | I did install that | 17:13 |
| redheat | has anyone found away around this error | 17:13 |
| nuba1 | there are several howtos | 17:13 |
| scriptdevil | redheat: well. use the net install | 17:13 |
| Pelo | redheat, how many times did you try to install so far ? | 17:13 |
| nuba1 | I'm running it on edubuntu though which does it out of the box | 17:13 |
| koudelka_ | astro76: well then i need to have some kind of powersource for the ram when i shut down the computer | 17:14 |
| astro76 | !minimal | redheat | 17:14 |
| ubot3 | redheat: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 17:14 |
| redheat | something like 4 or 5 | 17:14 |
| bjb1959 | temp1234: the monitor shutting off you mean? | 17:14 |
| nickrud | redheat: try looking on bugs.launchpad.com/ubuntu , search for ubiquity | 17:14 |
| scriptdevil | but you need 700mb download.. but not for the cd | 17:14 |
| ckennedy | bart: it mounted and worked the first time but now says I dont' have privilage rights? The drive is listed in my documents for available drives? | 17:14 |
| nuba1 | the only difference between earlier version and the current is that the lts.conf file is now under /var/lib/tftp/lts | 17:14 |
| nickrud | nuba1: I like that one because it has a piece that edits in /etc to whitelist fgrlx | 17:14 |
| astro76 | koudelka_, I don't think readahead cache is intended to be preserved across reboots | 17:14 |
| lexis_nexus | have yu tried making yourself part of the cd group | 17:14 |
| Pelo | redheat, try this, pre partition the hdd using gparted in menu > system > admin , then use the manual option when you get to the partitionning section of the installer, do not have anything else running when you install | 17:14 |
| SuperPigs | where do i find more screen savers for ubuntu linux? | 17:15 |
| omega_ | thanks! <ompaul> and <ubot3> | 17:15 |
| nuba1 | ah great, htanks nickrud | 17:15 |
| sharpie | need help: both DVD drives not working, hardware information isn't working either and i suddenly have a "unable to get data" icon in my tray :/ | 17:15 |
| Pelo | redheat, you would also check if there are any issues with your model in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport | 17:15 |
| redheat | Pelo, I have nothing else running.. | 17:15 |
| bjb1959 | ckennedy: the line we entered in your fstab was for /media/external but it sounds like it's looking for one called DRV4_VOL1 right? | 17:15 |
| ompaul | omega_, your welcome | 17:15 |
| redheat | I go straightahead..into the installation process the moment I start the machine | 17:15 |
| koudelka_ | astro76: nah i don't think so either, but i mean to put root there could improve boot time and also maybe software startup as it's not huge amount of data but lots of small files | 17:15 |
| Strang3love | I am able to get to grub on a dual boot system, ubuntu and xp, but when i select ubuntu it says error 21 unable to find selected disk | 17:15 |
| Strang3love | any ideas? | 17:15 |
| redheat | gonna try different approaches to this problem.. | 17:16 |
| Pelo | redheat, there aren't 10k ways about it , try what I suggested or try the alternate install cd | 17:16 |
| merln | i have a ati graphics card with a S-video out i just plugged it into my tv and nothing is showing up do i to reboot for the os to recongnise i have the S-video hooked up? | 17:16 |
| temp1234 | bjb1959, yea both on desktops and laptops; Ubuntu is able to mange my laptop only with gnome, using other windows managers, the blanking issue occurs; My take on it is that it's hardware acpi issue; On archlinux, I've uninstalled acpi and xscreensaver will then blank correctly | 17:16 |
| Strang3love | i understand i will probably need to us a live cd and access the boot.list but how do i tell where to direct it to look | 17:16 |

| wind` | so if i go up to some computer and try to reboot with the flash drive in | 17:19 |
| wind` | nothing is going to happen? | 17:19 |
| temp1234 | bjb1959, I think it's a hardware and acpi conflicting, like the hardware will blank it, and then acpi tries to blank it, which results in the error and no blanking | 17:19 |
| scriptdevil | Strang3love: it is hd(1,0) for hdd0 | 17:19 |
| scriptdevil | *hdb0 | 17:19 |
| astro76 | koudelka_, you would think package installation scripts would want to modify that system, but it doesn't appear that's the case... not sure | 17:19 |
| minimec | wind`: good old floppy ;) or a boot CD-rom | 17:19 |
| omega_ | <ompaul> after compiling, then i can write in C ? | 17:19 |
| nickrud | Strang3love: that would translate as ide1 first drive, or hdb1 ; where's your partition | 17:19 |
| Pelo | wind`, if the other comp can'T boot from flash it won'T boot from your usb flash | 17:19 |

| Javanon | i have a daily download limit, yes i know its horrible, anyone know if Gutsy can be found on any news stands? | 17:41 |
| redheat | that's why it worked on this desktop, because I supplied a one word username | 17:41 |
| duke_ | my problem is, that after the distupgrade, wine (PS 7) is not working anymore and the system is crashing | 17:41 |

| Javanon | (with a mag) | 17:41 |
| redheat | ok I got that.. | 17:41 |
| critt | Can someone help with what is probably a really simple fix? I just can't seem to find any help docs to fix the glitch. | 17:41 |
| scguy318 | Javanon: you can probably either request a CD or buy it from a local vendor | 17:42 |
| saloxin | critt: with what? | 17:42 |
| scguy318 | duke_: if you run from Terminal what happens? it may be a regression | 17:42 |

| MR-REznOr | hi, I have been running Ubuntu on my pc for 6 monthsish now and ive decided to remove my windows partition and move my home dir over to it to make some room. the machine was originally a win pc and fdisk says the windows partition is labelled boot. should i be worried about just formatting it to ext3 and dumping my home dir there and editing fstab? | 17:44 |
| scriptdevil | quaal: i have about 6 gb of it, it doesnt complain | 17:44 |
| quaal | scriptdevil, hmm | 17:44 |
| scguy318 | duke_: still there? can you pastebin the terminal output? | 17:44 |
| schnoonix | scguy318: more does it support it good enough, im new to wine | 17:44 |
| scriptdevil | quaal: try cd /media/usbdriv | 17:44 |
| scguy318 | schnoonix: sure does | 17:44 |
| redheat | guys, one last question, is 20 gb enough for all of ubuntu.. | 17:44 |
| saloxin | critt: don't know if it's possible to unlock them. why do yo uwant to? | 17:44 |
| quaal | scriptdevil, i just played one of the subdirs and its playing fine it seems | 17:44 |
| scguy318 | redheat: yepppppp | 17:44 |
| scriptdevil | quaal: cd Music | 17:44 |
| quaal | hmm | 17:44 |
| scriptdevil | redheat: by quite a margin | 17:45 |
| redheat | ok thank you for that quicky answer..that bears the mark of ( weŕe fed up) | 17:45 |
| quaal | but the whole reason i was doing this, to see if mplayer would give an error mesage | 17:45 |
| quaal | because when i play things off of this usbdisks | 17:45 |
| redheat | thanks truely appreciate it | 17:45 |
| quaal | i get pauses | 17:45 |
| quaal | for no reason | 17:45 |
| zigonick | where can i find the default .bashrc file? so that i can fix my errored up one? | 17:45 |
| riddlebox | so far, my remote upgrade is working perfectly :) | 17:45 |
| redheat | signing off | 17:45 |
| critt | saloxin WHen I turn my volume back up the bass is really distorted when turned up to much | 17:45 |
| Slike | nickrud: is there a standard way to fix this? i followed these instructions: http://www.howforge.com/how-setup-fglrx-8-42-3-and-compiz-ubuntu-gutsy | 17:45 |
| nickrud | Slike: check that you did steps 7 & 10 correctly | 17:45 |
| scriptdevil | quaal: your playspeed is lesser than read speed | 17:45 |
| vanush__ | hi, im getting no sound using totem to play divx files online? | 17:45 |
| scriptdevil | *greater | 17:45 |
| quaal | mplayer just paused though.. didnt give a error | 17:45 |
| linux_userd | how can i see the linux-source | 17:45 |
| === sabayonuser is now known as saby | ||
| quaal | scriptdevil, its running on usb | 17:45 |
| timbobsteve | MR-REznOr: not sure if you will need to update the mbr, but your process sounds like it should be fine. I would make a backup of the MBR just in case.... and make sure you have a liveCD handy just in case | 17:45 |
| scriptdevil | vanush__: install the a52 codec | 17:45 |
| quaal | how could it be slower than playspeed | 17:45 |
| Haruno-afk | hi, how do i get ubuntu to use a connection, that's already existing, when ubuntu doesnt recognize it itself - it normaly did, but since gutsy it doesnt, anymore... since im using the console, maybe, because x doesnt work anymore - it's the guest in virtual box, the host is windows, the graphic card a nvidia... | 17:46 |
| Haruno-afk | *? | 17:46 |
| DJW2tone2 | linux_userd gotl kernel.org | 17:46 |
| nickrud | linux_userd: sudo apt-get install linux-source-2.6.22 , it'll be in /usr/src | 17:46 |
| MR-REznOr | timbobsteve: ok cool, ill give it a go. cheers mate :) | 17:46 |
| scriptdevil | quaal: i dunno. it sounds similar to pauses in slow cds | 17:46 |
| saloxin | quaal: mplayer caches by default - so you might not notice. look at ddrescue maybe? | 17:46 |
| vanush__ | scriptdevil: how? | 17:46 |
| timbobsteve | linux_userd: 'apt-get install linux-source-`uname -r` ' | 17:46 |
| linux_userd | i just did install linux-source | 17:46 |
| Slike | nickrud: 7 & 10 are ok, both contain "fglrx" | 17:46 |
| scriptdevil | vanush__: wait.. in totem right?? i suppose the corresponding gstreamer codec | 17:47 |
| deviantintegral | anyone here know of any filesystems which support hard linking directories? | 17:47 |
| timbobsteve | linux_userd: then thesource is in /usr/src/linux/ | 17:47 |
| Matic`Makovec | Hello. What exactly should I edit to get my hands on the login screen (sessions and all that..) because I want to play a lil' bit with compiz-fusion.. | 17:47 |
| Rencore_ | is there a version of flash for firefox 64-bit? | 17:47 |
| critt | Is there anyway to stop the master control from turning up the bass control? | 17:47 |
| scguy318 | Rencore_: are you on Gutsy? | 17:47 |
| Rencore_ | scguy318, yes | 17:47 |
| scguy318 | Rencore_: if so sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree will take care of it | 17:47 |
| linux_userd | so i do sudo gedit /usr/src/linux/ | 17:47 |
| nickrud | Slike: then go to /usr/src , you should see an fglrx deb. dpkg -i it, and try again | 17:47 |
| timbobsteve | Matic`Makovec: do you want compiz to run after you login? | 17:47 |
| Rencore_ | scguy318, thanks | 17:47 |
| nickrud | linux_userd: you can browse that directory with nautilus | 17:48 |
| scriptdevil | scguy318: for 64 bit? i thought it did not exist | 17:48 |
| scguy318 | scriptdevil: it doesnt, but theres a workaround-ish | 17:48 |
| davyd | has anyone encountered an issue in the gutsy alternate installer | 17:48 |
| scriptdevil | scguy318: ok | 17:48 |
| davyd | where configuring xserver-xorg trashes the framebuffer | 17:48 |
| timbobsteve | linux_userd: ... it is many different files... so you will need to look at them individually | 17:48 |
| RickX | cony anyone tell me where to configure compiz? | 17:48 |
| scguy318 | scriptdevil: the Gutsy flashplugin-nonfree takes care of getting the plugin to work on 64-bit | 17:48 |
| Haruno-afk | * internet connection, i meant, which i need, when there are updates for the x problem | 17:48 |
| davyd | so much so, that you can't actually read anything any more | 17:48 |
| vanush__ | scriptdevil: i want to play divx files. i tried using the media player connectivity plugin in firefox, but it keeps buffering all the time. i tried using totem inline in the browser, but theres no sound | 17:48 |
| davyd | it's all just coloured squares | 17:48 |
| scguy318 | duke_: still there? | 17:48 |
| nickrud | linux_userd: I think you'll need to cd /usr/src && sudo tar xf the linux.*.tgz first thoug | 17:49 |
| scriptdevil | scguy318: well. lack of software is what made me choose to run on 32 bit comp mode | 17:49 |
| scguy318 | scriptdevil: all the packages in the repo can do AMD64, but its obviously the proprietary stuff that may not work :P | 17:49 |
| Slike | nickrud: did that, and i checked those 2 files once more. i'll try it now (by rebooting). thanks for your advice so far, it's really appreciated! brb | 17:49 |
| scriptdevil | vanush__: yeah... i got the same problem. you need to install the divx audio codec.. but i chose mplayer over it | 17:49 |
| Matic`Makovec | timbobsteve, no, I just want to edit the command that runs it as it doesn't run it with enough arguments. | 17:49 |
| timbobsteve | MR-REznOr: .... the session files are located in /usr/share/xsessions .... but you probably just want to get a hold of compiz-icon and add that to the gnome-session startup list | 17:49 |
| gpe | why cannot add perl language support to my db => createlang plperl dbname | 17:49 |
| niriven | Would anyone recommend ubuntu 64 over 32? I know flash might not work, since its macromedia only offers 32 bit binaries, but other then that? | 17:49 |
| ubot3 | niriven: Error: Could not parse XML returned by Ubuntu: not well-formed (invalid token): line 347, column 84 | 17:49 |
| quaal | saloxin, hmm you familiar with using ddrescue ? | 17:50 |
| albech | i cant find out how to make Evolution mail automatically save outgoing mails in the Sent folder.. anyone? | 17:50 |
| EliasAmaral | Hi! I upgraded to Ubuntu Gusty and then mplayer stopped working. I type mplayer file.avi and it says that there is no Xvideo support. So I have to use mplayer -vo x11 video.avi, but it's too slow. How can I install or fix Xv support to mplayer on ubuntu 7.10? | 17:50 |
| vanush__ | scriptdevil: how do i install the divx audio codec? | 17:50 |
| Dr_Willis | niriven at one time tghere was issues with flash, wine, emulators, some drivers, java, codecs. ....... | 17:50 |
| timbobsteve | niriven: .... almost unlimited amounts of ram... ;P | 17:50 |
| scriptdevil | vanush__: open synaptic | 17:50 |
| Dr_Willis | niriven may be better to ask what you gain... | 17:50 |
| scriptdevil | vanush__: search for gstreamer | 17:50 |
| brian` | anyone familiar with how to change window managers when using the gnome desktop? | 17:51 |
| scguy318 | niriven: if you dont have a compelling reason to use 64-bit stick with 32-bit imho | 17:51 |
| nickrud | brian`: modern window managers understand <windowmanager> --replace | 17:51 |
| niriven | Dr_Willis, Well i know what i gain technically, 64-bit memory addressing, do i gain anything else? | 17:51 |
| saloxin | quaal: yep. dd_rescue -v /your/device /dev/null ? | 17:51 |
| timbobsteve | EliasAmaral: How comfortable with the terminal are you? if so then type 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure mplayer'.... hopefully that will make some difference | 17:51 |
| brian` | nickrud: interesting | 17:51 |
| koudelka_ | how can i generate a new readahead desktop file? anyone knows? | 17:52 |
| critt | Does anyone know how to Keep the master control volume from turning up my bass control automatically? | 17:52 |
| brian` | nickrud: how can i set it up to run my other window manager by default? | 17:52 |
| Slike | nickrud: reinstalling the /usr/src package must have done the trick, looks fine now :) | 17:52 |
| barkink | what is sdl-config? | 17:52 |
| zigonick | where can i find a fresh copy of .bashrc? | 17:52 |
| nickrud | brian`: haven't done that for a while, it keeps changing faster than I pay attention | 17:52 |
| saloxin | quaal: hm it complains about devnull, but still works | 17:52 |
| Slike | nickrud: thank you very much | 17:52 |
| nickrud | Slike: yw | 17:52 |
| timbobsteve | brian_: just use a different session at the login screen.... | 17:52 |
| Dr_Willis | niriven nothing that i am aware.. Perhaps some gain in a few apps if compiled/written to make use of 64bit # sizes | 17:52 |
| EliasAmaral | timbobsteve, i am confortable. reconfigured, but still there is no Xvideo support | 17:52 |
| Flynsarmy | Anyone know how to load the Gnome settings daemon without rebooting? | 17:52 |
| gpe | createlang plperl dbname => it doesn work for me,, whats is wrong | 17:52 |
| nickrud | Slike: save that module with the rest of the debs :) | 17:53 |
| Skylan | hi 2 all. i have a question: ubuntu supports Promise ULTRA 66 controller? | 17:53 |

| quaal | lots of scrolling | 17:53 |
| EliasAmaral | timbobsteve, hmm.. how do i list dependencies? | 17:53 |
| timbobsteve | brian_: might need to create a custom session file.... look in /usr/share/xsessions for examples | 17:53 |
| quaal | do i need to wait until it pauses while playing ? | 17:53 |
| scguy318 | linux_userd: then its in 2.6.17-12? | 17:53 |
| jmak642 | !info nvidia | 17:54 |

| brian` | timbobsteve: oh, thanks | 17:54 |
| scguy318 | !info nvidia-glx | 17:54 |
| Slike | nickrud: i will :) it's actually the first time that i experienced problems with the installation of an ati driver... now i know where to search in case of troubles ;) | 17:54 |
| ubot3 | Package nvidia-glx does not exist in gutsy | 17:54 |
| linux_userd | ok how to se the kernel now | 17:54 |
| brian` | timbobsteve: that sounds like a good lead | 17:54 |
| saloxin | quaal: ithought you were checking the disk io for pauses? | 17:54 |
| scguy318 | linux_userd: cd linux-headers-`uname -r`? | 17:54 |
| timbobsteve | EliasAmaral: .... apt-cache show mplayer.... and scroll up a bit | 17:54 |
| saloxin | quaal: this should run, and you'll see when it pauses | 17:54 |
| quaal | saloxin, when playing music from the disk i will get pauses from time to time | 17:54 |
| nickrud | linux4me: cd /usr/src && sudo tar xf linux-source-2.6.17.tar.bz2 , then use nautilus to browse /usr/src | 17:54 |

| scguy318 | !usplash | timbobsteve | 17:55 |
| saloxin | quaal: nono. ddrescue is just for looking at how thhe usb is performing | 17:55 |
| ubot3 | timbobsteve: To select the usplash artwork you want, use "sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so && sudo update-initramfs -u" - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplashCustomizationHowto for adding your custom artwork | 17:55 |

| Shadow_Fi | MINIMEC, how? | 18:03 |
| timbobsteve | ganeshhegde: should be able to download the .bin file from limewire to com... if you are using ubuntu you can just install the free version called "frostwire".... it is better and no adds/restrictions.... sudo apt-get install frostwire | 18:03 |
| Dr_Willis | !find frostwire | 18:03 |

| thornomad | hi there -- i just did a fresh install of gutsy ... having trouble with my wired internet. i can ping google.com successfully, I have an ip address (ifconfig), but I can't do any more than that. no firefox, no aptitude update, no wget (wget resolves but can't connect) ... nothing works. not sure what is wrong. any ideas ? where do i start ? thanks | 18:08 |
| meoblast001 | crdlb: so what should i be using to do what im tryint to recieve? | 18:08 |
| nickrud | koudelka_: no, I'm not sure, what I suggested would simply make sure that file was up to date. | 18:08 |
| timbobsteve | critt: perhaps try a different one... like gamix or xmix.... if all else fails run mixer in the console.... should be able to untie the two volumes | 18:09 |
| saloxin | Qrawl: dpkg -L phpmyadmin - will tell what files the package provided | 18:09 |
| crdlb | meoblast001: alt+scroll wheel | 18:09 |

| phlax | hi - ive been tracking gutsy for a little while on a thinktad t42 - today i did a dist-upgrade and it seems like any bin with the letter g in segfaults - gnome-session does not work at all etc etc | 18:09 |
| critt | I don't want to unite I want to diconnect them. | 18:09 |
| critt | disconnect | 18:09 |
| Qrawl | saloxin, ty. it's in usr/share | 18:09 |
| meoblast001 | crdlb: how do i make that affect every window? | 18:09 |
| saloxin | thornomad: sounds like your network settings are weird. dhcp? other boxes behave the same? | 18:09 |
| timbobsteve | phlax: that sounds painful.... | 18:10 |
| phlax | i am(was) using the fglrx drivers | 18:10 |
| neumind | timbobsteve, add this in last line? | 18:10 |
| thornomad | timbobsteve: it is behind a router, yes ... but so are other pcs on the network ... i have other windows and mac boxes that work fine | 18:10 |
| koudelka_ | nickrud: ok | 18:10 |
| phlax | is there any known probs? | 18:10 |
| crdlb | meoblast001: you could use an opacity rule, join #compiz-fusion | 18:10 |
| timbobsteve | neumind: yes that shoud be fine | 18:10 |
| thornomad | saloxin: other boxes no problems | 18:10 |

| timbobsteve | neumind: .... it should be something like "hda3 /home ext3 defaults 0 0".... but you have to replace it with the information for your device and where you want it to start connected to | 18:11 |
| Qrawl | saloxin, I dont think phpmyadmin should be in usr/share . what happened | 18:12 |
| timbobsteve | thornomad: hmmmm .... and you say you can ping google etc? .... and you are obviously chatting on this pc right? | 18:12 |
| saloxin | Qrawl: there's probably some apache/phpmysqadmin.conf saying Alias /phpmyadmin /usr/share/phpmyadmin. | 18:12 |
| thornomad | timbobsteve: is a different pc i am chatting on. when i ping google.com i get responses ... 64 bytes from google ... long list | 18:12 |

| timbobsteve | Blama: sounds like the resolution for your normal boot mode is too high for your monitor. Try editing /etc/X11/xorg.conf and putting a different resolution at the front.... something safe like 800x600.... if that works then you can go higher.... but start small | 18:17 |

| jmak642 | can anyone help? | 18:44 |
| timbobsteve | EliasAmaral: be mindful that messing with GFX card settings might boot you out of X :P | 18:44 |
| cdm10 | ganeshhegde: if you go to Add/Remove though, you should see java. | 18:44 |

| redheat | should I delete those drivers, the nvidia new glx and download new ones straight from nvidia | 18:44 |
| KeitaroS | FluxD: thought so thnx :) | 18:45 |
| ganeshhegde | cdm10:k i ll try.. | 18:45 |

| Billies | make them smaller? | 18:45 |
| jmak642 | probably i need to get the network working first | 18:45 |
| EliasAmaral | timbobsteve, yeah I know :P I.. i tried to google this, http://www.google.com.br/search?q=mplayer+gutsy+xvideo | 18:45 |
| Billies | they are gigantic | 18:45 |
| ebirtaid | billies: different theme? | 18:45 |
| Billies | that whole bar is too thick | 18:45 |
| EliasAmaral | timbobsteve, there's a open bug about this | 18:45 |
| Billies | I've tried difrent themes | 18:46 |
| ebirtaid | post a screenshot | 18:46 |
| Billies | but I accidently used the high contrast one and it changed my fonts and everything | 18:46 |
| Downix_ | anyone? | 18:46 |
| Strang3love | is anyone here good with grub? | 18:46 |
| timbobsteve | it appears to be an overlay problem with ati cards... but that doesn;t explain why your friend gets it too.... perhaps the new mplayer made some change that affected it. | 18:46 |
| MrKeuner | hi, I use fetchmail to get e-mails from an account which accumulates more than 50 each time I run the fetchmail application. However, i think my exim is set to allow no more than 10 at a time and delays the rest. How can I change this setting? | 18:46 |
| Strang3love | i have been having some weird issues | 18:46 |
| FluxD | Downix_: ask away | 18:46 |
| Pancakes | I'm trying to get the internet to work with my WUSB300N wireless router, but I don't really know how or what to do. I'm not really linux-savvy | 18:47 |
| Billies | when I use any other theme, it uses the font I have set, and that is the one that the high contrast one set | 18:47 |
| Billies | and it screwed everything up | 18:47 |
| Downix_ | FluxD: just trying to remember the command to probe the PCI bus to verify which video card I have installed, so I can then select the right X driver | 18:47 |
| timbobsteve | EliasAmaral: has it worked at all since you upgraded? | 18:47 |
| Caleb_ | FluxD : FluxD : ok have link now what? http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/driverslist.aspx?c=us&cs=19&l=en&s=dhs&ServiceTag=&SystemID=INS_PNT_1501&os=WW1&osl=en&catid=&impid= | 18:47 |
| ebirtaid | then you need to go to your appearance settings | 18:47 |
| ebirtaid | and select a different font | 18:47 |

| mehevi | Psi-Jack its in /boot/grub/menu.lst take off the splash command at the end of your kernel | 20:33 |

| GUARDiAN- | allquixotic: if that doesn't work, do as i did and uninstall everything "compiz" in synaptic ;) | 20:33 |
| pbx | h4rd-2, this is the Ubuntu channel, therefor Gnome is better. | 20:33 |

| mehevi | octoberdan yeah ghostbusters plus wag the dog | 20:38 |

| mehevi | Psi-Jack ah. I tried that server install then went to desktop minimal install and built from there. | 20:44 |
| FluxD | BigCanOfTuna: startx ? | 20:44 |
| maek | ferronica: you could turn off visual effects under appearance and see what happens. | 20:44 |

| BigCanOfTuna | FluxD: No, it's looking for a kernel image. | 20:45 |
| maek | BigCanOfTuna: you could mount your /boot device to like /tmp/boot and then vi it from there | 20:45 |
| FluxD | BigCanOfTuna: hmm I am not sure then | 20:45 |
| BigCanOfTuna | maek: Yea, I need a command prompt though. | 20:45 |
| mehevi | Psi-Jack woah sounds like a full time job :) | 20:45 |
| BigCanOfTuna | maek: I am trying to use a live CD. | 20:46 |
| maek | BigCanOfTuna: do you have the livecd? | 20:46 |
| BigCanOfTuna | maek: yes. | 20:46 |

| please_hel1 | sorry? | 20:55 |
| Psi-Jack | FluxD: No, 10x is 10 times. | 20:55 |
| riotkittie | !u | 20:55 |
| ubot3 | Unless you're Dutch or Flemish, or a government officier, the letter 'U' is not a pronoun. If you want to be taken more seriously, please bother to type out the extra letters in "you". The same goes for "why", "because", "anyone", and so on.. | 20:55 |
| riotkittie | :D | 20:55 |
| FluxD | Psi-Jack: nope thats what I though apprantly its thnaks :) | 20:55 |
| Jay | I have a question. | 20:55 |
| Psi-Jack | FluxD:Nope. We speak English here, not stupid. | 20:56 |
| pipegeek | Well, sometimes I speak spanish | 20:56 |

| please_hel1 | how do i define the -geometry parameter? | 20:56 |
| fiXXXerMe1 | I'm trying to put music on my Sansa e260R. It's mounted as rw (/dev/sdd1 on /media/Sansa e260R type vfat (rw,nosuid,nodev,shortname=mixed,uid=1000,utf8,umask=077,usefree)) but when I try to copy files to it, I get "mkdir: cannot create directory `test': Read-only file system" | 20:56 |
| Psi-Jack | FluxD: That's okay. I'm too lazy to help those lazy bums. | 20:56 |
| FluxD | Psi-Jack: haha | 20:56 |
| ompaul | !offtopic | 20:56 |
| ubot3 | #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! | 20:56 |
| daxroc | After installing an application from source is there any update I should run ? | 20:56 |
| pipegeek | fiXXXerMe1: for one thing, you have a hard name to type | 20:56 |
| ompaul | daxroc, did you use checkinstall ? | 20:57 |
| === fiXXXerMe1 is now known as easyname | ||
| easyname | Sorry pipegeek | 20:57 |
| pingswept | please_hell: example: xterm -geometry 80x66+0+0 | 20:57 |
| pipegeek | fiXXXerMe1: but, if you mount a fat filesystem as root, only root can access it | 20:57 |
| pipegeek | hahaha | 20:57 |
| pipegeek | joking | 20:57 |
| daxroc | ompaul: checkinstall ? | 20:57 |
| FluxD | Jay: ask ur question | 20:57 |
| maestrojed | Is there an ftp server include with Ubuntu? Preferably one with a GUI? | 20:57 |
| pbx | ubot3: i agre wit u abt u its stupit and ppl r stupit | 20:57 |
| ubot3 | pbx: Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 20:57 |
| riotkittie | checkinstall rocks the casbah. | 20:57 |
| ompaul | !checkinstall | daxroc | 20:57 |
| pipegeek | unless you specify something like -o umask=000 | 20:57 |
| ubot3 | daxroc: checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall - Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page, and DO NOT interrupt CheckInstall while it's running! | 20:57 |
| pipegeek | or somesuch | 20:57 |
| easyname | pipegeek: :) Well I did sudo mkdir test and still got that error. | 20:57 |
| pipegeek | oooh | 20:57 |
| DBAlex | how do I un-install a driver? | 20:57 |
| pipegeek | what do the permissions on the thing say? | 20:57 |
| pipegeek | rm -rf /lib/modules | 20:57 |
| pipegeek | ok, no | 20:58 |
| pipegeek | that's a lie | 20:58 |
| pipegeek | technically accurate | 20:58 |
| pipegeek | but still | 20:58 |
| daxroc | ompaul: thanks | 20:58 |
| easyname | pipegeek: drwx------ 11 kjohnson root 4096 1969-12-31 19:00 . | 20:58 |
| Psi-Jack | pipegeek: Yeouch! I should kick you for that! | 20:58 |
| pingswept | please_hell: I think the 80x66 are the dimensions, and the 0 0 are the xy coordinates of one corner | 20:58 |
| pipegeek | you should. That was awful of me | 20:58 |
| Jay | I downloaded Ubuntu 7.10 and burned it onto a CD, but when I try to boot it I get a blank screen, not even a command line or anything. I verified the md5sum of the iso and also verified the integrity of the CD on the Ubuntu boot menu. | 20:58 |
| * Psi-Jack kicks pipegeek hard! | 20:58 | |

| hmuller | RDP: It's just that the partition information has been wiped out | 21:30 |

| High_Altitude | veei: i have an idea. go to any ubuntu site, and you haveto get the disk [you can get it at any store] and it will have info about installing. After that see if it can detect the NIC or just unpartion it | 21:34 |

| Veei | high_altitude: how is there a diff between the d/l version and a manufactured cd | 21:35 |
| rubyguy | daxroc: so i suppose open source ATI drivers doesn't work with his card and he needs FGLRX | 21:35 |

| seamus7 | rubyguy: sorry i meant enabling the fglrx in restricted drivers manager would install it ... but if that's not working then he needs to check his ati version at the ubuntu forums to see if anyone else is having issues with that particular card | 21:37 |
| peeta | High_Altitude: thx ... but i have no idea, whos helping and whos asking for help | 21:37 |

| demisone | Outlier: hmm.. interesting - same error with live cd - it couldn't start the X server... How possible is it that the fault is somehow related to the fact that there is voodoo card on the pc...? (i think it's voodoo 2) | 22:15 |

| annabelle | <Bruno_>Thanks its done! | 22:15 |
| icy_ | Pelo: several seconds, like ~15. It's not only with synaptic, it's whenever a program is started through gksu | 22:15 |
| Bruno_ | annabelle: ok | 22:16 |
| jaume_ | icy_ is it only gksudo or also sudo? | 22:16 |
| _Johny | ole, "Slow" I meant the program reacts slow, not the connection to the server. Is this common for the off client too? | 22:16 |

| ubot3 | the-killer: 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 | 23:01 |

| bluejay_ | and the CD that didn't work failed to start on windows too | 23:01 |

| cdm10 | Any Epiphany users in here? | 23:02 |
| riotkittie | the alternate CD can be downloaded from ubuntu.com - look on the bottom of the download page, rather than using the radio boxes to select a download | 23:02 |
| bluejay_ | Jay, well for me, it did...that's why i asked you if your cd works on windows | 23:02 |
| Pelo | dwf_starband, did you try #lirc maybe then can help ? | 23:02 |
| specsmu | hmm, I'll just try using my tftp server :P | 23:02 |
| andres__ | Bruno_: no | 23:02 |
| cremepuff222 | HELLO HELLO HELLO | 23:03 |

| Arafangion | Newbie00: Alternatively, perform an upgrade. | 23:54 |
| guru | bobloblian: are you trying to repair an ext3 fs? | 23:54 |
| Newbie00 | i was using the 5.10 | 23:55 |
| Arafangion | Newbie00: Quicker to re-install, then. :) | 23:55 |
| Newbie00 | so you know why i don't wanna upgrade :) | 23:55 |

| mrunagi | how can i rename a random named set of .JPG to .jpg | 23:55 |
| Newbie00 | ok i've opened the installer | 23:55 |
| Newbie00 | choose the langage | 23:56 |
| jrib | mrunagi: with the 'rename' command | 23:56 |
| cdm10 | crdlb: mind if I ask you a quick Epi question? | 23:56 |
| bobloblian | guru: I accidentally mkfs.ext3'd a partition. I then dd'd the partition into a file, and cat shows me lots of the lost data, but I can't find a way to read it | 23:56 |
| Newbie00 | and now i check to prepare my HD manually | 23:56 |
| mrunagi | well obviously...........but rn .JPG .jpg wouldnt work would it | 23:56 |
| crdlb | cdm10: go ahead :) | 23:56 |
| shadeofgrey | i dont believe it! | 23:56 |
| bobloblian | I read reiserfs has rebuild-tree that will allow to retrieve the data, but this was an ext2 partition | 23:56 |
| shadeofgrey | 7.10 actually booted on my mac | 23:56 |
| jrib | mrunagi: did you take a quick look at 'man rename'? | 23:56 |
| cdm10 | crdlb: How do I add a greasemonkey script? | 23:56 |
| Newbie00 | i've erased all the partition except the NTFS ONE | 23:56 |
| src | mrunagi, try this ls|awk -F | 23:56 |
| Newbie00 | so can you help me :) | 23:57 |
| guru | mrunagi: in bash/ksh/sh you can do for i in `ls *.JPG` ; do ^JNN=`echo $i | sed 's/\.JPG/\.jpg/'`;^Jmv "$i" "$NN"^Jdone | 23:57 |
| guru | MrKeuner: substitute ^J with enter | 23:57 |
| crdlb | cdm10: with the greasemonkey extension enabled, just right click the script link and select install | 23:57 |
| hexkubuntu | Newbie00: good, apply the changes, quit the installer, reopen installer and select install from freespace | 23:57 |
| shadeofgrey | can somebodfy please take a few minutes and talk me through what i have to do to actuallt install it -- mainly i need help with the manual partitioning stuff | 23:57 |
| Newbie00 | K | 23:57 |
| cdm10 | crdlb: ah, thanks. Perhaps it would be wise for it to detect that the URL I'm viewing is a greasemonkey script, and offer to install it. | 23:58 |
| Oval | Hi guys. | 23:58 |
| yo | what does ls|awk -F do | 23:58 |

| symlink | whats good for sharing your files on an Ubuntu Machine with a Windows Machine? | 23:59 |
| Oval | It seems as if this site sheds some more light on the package: http://packages.ubuntu.com/gutsy/python/python-reportlab -- is it correctly gathered that this resides in the gutsy main repositories? | 23:59 |
| Oval | s/as if/that/ | 23:59 |
| src | symlink, samba | 23:59 |
| Newbie00 | it doesnt work | 23:59 |
| cdm10 | symlink: it's called Samba, but I've never really tried setting it up... the default settings if you just go to Shared Folders don't work. | 23:59 |
