| bruenig | jellymaster, generally it will say, such and such is off do "some command" and you just do that. So just look for that | 00:32 |
| Burlynn | because getting a cd takes months | 00:32 |

| Burlynn | Op3r: i got mine the day i decided to download it | 00:33 |
| jellymaster | bruenig well from now on I will look for that but this error message just said there was a package manager already running and to close that one. I took another look @ the SS just to make sure it didn't say a command and it didn't | 00:33 |

| excessluggage | dansku: gparted or qtparted | 00:33 |
| dansku | in gparted, i can't resize, the text is gray | 00:34 |
| hexxd1 | I just tried to update, and it gave me an error: 'E:Unable to parse package file /var/lib/apt/extended_states (1)' any ideas on a fix? | 00:34 |
| Cryoniq | Hmm how do I make windows in gutsy not stick to edges? | 00:34 |
| Alyxander | filloy sorry does the system stop when you plug the pci in after its booted? | 00:34 |
| jellymaster | bruenig SS= Screen shot, but I'm not here to argue I'm just grateful that you helped me fix it. | 00:34 |
| excessluggage | dansku: what kind of fs are yo trying to resize? | 00:34 |
| Op3r | hexxd1, try to repair it by sudo apt-get -f | 00:34 |
| dansku | ntfs | 00:34 |
| Alyxander | filloy if not do an lspci and see if it recognizes it | 00:34 |
| bruenig | jellymaster, oh ok, didn't know that was an acceptable abbreviation | 00:34 |
| hexxd1 | k, i'll try that, thx | 00:34 |
| dansku | but all, even linux partition is in gray | 00:34 |
| Cryoniq | with fusion that is... | 00:35 |
| TheWhip | I have a virus. It wants money. what do I do? | 00:35 |
| excessluggage | dansku: check how full it is and do a defrag maybe. If you're using ntfs you're using windows so defrag in there... if its vista you can resize it there too | 00:35 |
| Op3r | TheWhip, stop using windows | 00:35 |
| TheWhip | :) | 00:35 |
| Op3r | its one big virus | 00:35 |
| netdefilr | would ubuntu work on 64megs of ram? | 00:36 |
| dansku | do you think if I defrag, ill be able to resize? | 00:36 |
| jellymaster | bruenig it's the term I picked up from gaming communitys,and alot of forums and now when I say screen shot it's just a habit to use SS. | 00:36 |
| big_area | does anyone know of a deb for conky 1.4.8? | 00:36 |
| hexxd1 | Op3r: are you sure, doesn't it need a command afterwards? should i do sudo apt-get -f upgrade? | 00:36 |
| filloy | Alyxander: The system freezes if I plug the PCI card and then boot, the message thats being displayed is Starting Common Unix Printing Service: cupsd...which has nothing to do with the wireless card, but the strange this is that if I unplug the card and then start the computer, the cupsd has no problems :s | 00:36 |
| dansku | excessluggage, but i can even resize linux partition | 00:36 |
| bruenig | jellymaster, got you, never seen it before, but here we generally have pastebins not screenshots so that is probably why | 00:36 |
| TheWhip | I'm downloading 2008 RC0. | 00:36 |
| Robotchicken1886 | what would be the best replacement program for Itunes | 00:36 |
| Op3r | hexxd1, i think that will try to fix what ever apt-get is doing first then you will do sudo apt-get update | 00:37 |
| excessluggage | dansku: if they're mounted you wont be able to resize | 00:37 |
| netdefilr | robotchicken1886: amarok | 00:37 |
| jo_ | any idea for dvd player on gutsy ? | 00:37 |
| dansku | Robotchicken1886, you can use songbird | 00:37 |
| hexxd1 | ok | 00:37 |
| Op3r | jo_: vlc player is the best thing that happened to me | 00:37 |
| Robotchicken1886 | can i load music to my ipod with armok | 00:37 |
| dansku | excessluggage, so if I unmont, then will I be able to resize? | 00:37 |
| jo_ | it's build in Op3rb ? | 00:37 |
| netdefilr | Robotchicken1886: not sure. | 00:37 |
| netdefilr | Robotchicken1886: But it's got a great ui | 00:37 |
| excessluggage | dansku: should be able to. MIght be easier however to boot from ubuntu live cd and resize from there | 00:38 |
| Alyxander | filloy humm what kind of wireless card is it | 00:38 |
| Burlynn | Robotchicken1886: rhythmbox will do it, should have been installed by default | 00:38 |
| dansku | but it doenst auto-mount? | 00:38 |
| Op3r | jo_: its on the repositories. you can install it via synaptic or add/remove o | 00:38 |
| filloy | Alyxander: Its an Encore Wirless-g PCI, model ENLWI-G2 with a Realtek RTL8185L chipset | 00:38 |
| netdefilr | Anyone know of a replacement for the wireless connection software in gutsy gibbon? | 00:38 |
| Alyxander | filloy is it supported? | 00:38 |
| excessluggage | dansku: dont think it automounts on a live cd | 00:38 |
| jo_ | from terminal can ? | 00:38 |
| jellymaster | bruenig ahh I see never heard it put that way,but anyways it looks like the package finished installing this time,looks like something stopped the package from bringing up a ToS I had to agree to for Java installation but it did this time. Thanks again :) | 00:39 |
| hexxd1 | "E: Unable to write to /var/cache/apt/ | 00:39 |

| kenpokarateboy | Hello. A little over a week ago, i was browsing the web on ubuntu 7.10 (which i had updated to during tribe 5), and suddenly my keyboard stopped working on my first gen macbook (tech specs at: http://support.apple.com/specs/macbook/macbook.html, white 2.0GHz, only hardware change i have made is upgrading to 2 GB of RAM). All aplications failed to get keyoard input in gnome, though i could still type in my passw | 00:52 |
| TheWhip | just wanted to know | 00:52 |
| excessluggage | kakoonia: like i said not sure by name. Is it the stuff in System->Preferences->Appearance you're after? | 00:52 |
| kakoonia | excessluggage: you on kde? | 00:53 |
| kakoonia | ahh, no.. | 00:53 |
| cyphase | TheWhip: by sort of, i meant i offer ubuntu support on a freelancing basis | 00:53 |
| filloy | Alyxander: No luck, the same thing, it stopped on Starting Common Unix Printing System: cupsd, what if i disable the cupsd ? | 00:53 |
| excessluggage | kakoonia: nah Gnome | 00:53 |
| TheWhip | so no companey has users using linux.. | 00:54 |
| TheWhip | and I mean they never see a windows system | 00:54 |
| cyphase | TheWhip: of course there are | 00:54 |
| TheWhip | who? | 00:54 |
| Alyxander | filloy try that | 00:54 |
| excessluggage | TheWhip: im in the process of persuading the one I work for to aport linux boxes | 00:54 |
| excessluggage | but not yet | 00:54 |
| filloy | Alyxander: but how :P | 00:54 |
| filloy | ? | 00:54 |
| kakoonia | excessluggage: ye.. i think thats the one i was looking for.. thanks. | 00:54 |
| cyphase | TheWhip: you mean not 1 windows computer in the entire company? | 00:54 |
| hexxd1 | Op3r: ok, rebooted, fsck ran, found crapload of errors, fixed them, updates still not working | 00:55 |
| TheWhip | excessluggage how is that going? do they have windows apps? are you going to publish them on a Citrix server? | 00:55 |
| snkmad | how do i mount a bin+cue cd image? | 00:55 |
| Mookie | is there any software i can use to download a complete website instead of just a page for offline reading? | 00:55 |
| snkmad | !mount | 00:55 |

| ghost--warrior | lut a tous | 00:56 |
| excessluggage | TheWhip: we already use Citrix (which I've set up for use on my box) - we're basically considering it due to forthcoming "upgrade" to vista issues | 00:56 |
| soothsayer | Can anyone confirm that "next song" doesn't work on Rhythmbox with the last.fm plugin? | 00:56 |
| Pici | Mookie: look into webhttrack, its in the repositories. Its not great, but it works. | 00:56 |
| DM| | theres alot of errors with mounting and unmounting CDrom drives and USB disks since Feisty. | 00:56 |
| kenpokarateboy | tar finished backing up, please, if someone could help me, it would be appreciated. | 00:56 |

| mediabuntu | dose this means the world can execute the file right ? -rwxrwx--x | 00:56 |
| mediabuntu | but cant read ? | 00:56 |
| excessluggage | mediabuntu: sorta yes. owner and group have read permissions | 00:57 |
| excessluggage | mediabuntu: but not anyone | 00:57 |
| mediabuntu | world cant write yes ? | 00:57 |
| excessluggage | mediabuntu: yes | 00:57 |
| filloy | how do i disable cupsd at boot? | 00:57 |
| mediabuntu | but to excute you have to be able to read it yess ? | 00:58 |
| Pici | filloy: permanently? | 00:58 |
| filloy | Pici: nope, just one boot | 00:58 |
| excessluggage | mediabuntu: no | 00:58 |
| mitch__ | Hey all, I have dual monitor setup, and I want different wallpapers per monitor. How do I do this? Running Gutsy. | 00:59 |
| drgeb | is ypbind a process that has to be running on ones machine ? | 00:59 |
| excessluggage | mediabuntu: there's a difference in being able to read the file and execute it | 00:59 |
| soothsayer | mediabuntu: Yes you need to be able to read it | 00:59 |
| fatcatmatt | throwin in the xfce environment :) | 00:59 |
| mediabuntu | ahhh I'm still learning :P | 00:59 |
| kakoonia | is there anyone used AWN & kiba, and can point whats better? | 00:59 |
| soothsayer | mediabuntu: Those settings might be useful on directories where 'read' and 'execute' have special meanings. | 00:59 |
| Me8myself | hello | 01:00 |
| Pici | filloy: The easiest way would be to use bum. | 01:00 |
| Pici | !boot | filloy | 01:00 |
| ubotu | filloy: Boot options: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions - To add/remove startup services, you can use the package 'bum', or update-rc.d - To add your own startup scripts, use /etc/rc.local - See also !grub and !dualboot - Making a boot floppy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto/BootFloppy - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SmartBootManagerHowto | 01:00 |
| Pici | filloy: or see the syntax for update-rc.d | 01:01 |
| daryl_ | hi | 01:01 |
| filloy | kakoonia: ive used both, and im currently using AWN, much better for me. I think Kiba dock is more like fun...yes, you can hit icons and they jump all over the window, but when you try to have something working, those effects are crazy... | 01:01 |
| excessluggage | soothsayer: im sure you dont need read to execute | 01:01 |
| filloy | Pici: thank you very much :D | 01:01 |

| Me8myself | good? | 01:01 |
| === SudoKing is now known as k | ||
| soothsayer | excessluggage: I just tried it. But I'm not sure of special circumstances. Can you name an instance where you can execute a file without reading it? | 01:02 |
| kakoonia | filloy - ye i know what youre saying, there are also lots of bugs with this kiba-dock, i didnt use awn yet.. you think you can help me by telling me where can i get it? | 01:02 |
| excessluggage | create a bash script, remove read permissions but make executable | 01:03 |
| hexxd1 | still there Op3r? | 01:03 |
| excessluggage | you should be able to execute it but not ls it, or read | 01:03 |
| elliottcable | hey y'all | 01:03 |
| soothsayer | excessluggage: Have you tried it? | 01:03 |
| elliottcable | Remember me? d-: | 01:03 |
| elliottcable | Ive finally got an installer booted, text-based OEM 32bit was the onl one that'd work | 01:03 |
| elliottcable | Now I need to format a partition | 01:04 |
| elliottcable | and I don't know what any of these filesystems are | 01:04 |
| filloy | kakoonia: yes, of course, are you using gutsy ? | 01:04 |
| excessluggage | soothsayer: no, that's how it should work though. I'll try one now | 01:04 |
| soothsayer | excessluggage: The readability of a file has nothing to do with whether you can 'ls' it | 01:04 |
| elliottcable | Ext3, Ext2, JFS, XFS? What should I use? | 01:04 |
| soothsayer | excessluggage: ... directory maybe | 01:04 |
| Pici | elliottcable: ext3 | 01:04 |
| IndyGunFreak | EXT3 | 01:04 |
| vincent_ | !dpi | 01:04 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about dpi - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 01:04 |
| Pici | !ext3 | elliottcable | 01:04 |
| ubotu | elliottcable: 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 | 01:04 |
| mitch__ | Anyone know how to set different wallpapers for dual monitor set up? | 01:04 |
| * cyphase uses reiserfs | 01:04 | |
| elliottcable | Pici: can I read that, at least, from an OS X installation? | 01:04 |
| eucalre | sup? | 01:04 |
| Pici | elliottcable: I dont know, sorry. | 01:04 |
| kakoonia | filloy : ye. | 01:05 |
| vincent_ | I wonder if it's necessary to change dpi value... I have dpi of 99x98 on a 20inch lcd. advice. | 01:05 |

| IndyGunFreak | !sound | Gunn | 01:06 |

| wren | I just upgraded from Feisty to Gutsy, and I'm suddenly having trouble with my wireless. The wireless adaptor that worked 100% out of the box in Feisty suddenly causes my computer to die. If the adaptor is plugged in at start up, Ubuntu will not boot. If I plug it in after booting, the computer just locks up. Any thoughts or suggestions? | 01:07 |
| mediabuntu | great thank you | 01:07 |
| filloy | koolrans: ok, here it is:http://awn.wetpaint.com/page/Ubuntu theres the download page and the installing instructions come inside the package, good luck ! | 01:08 |

| Gunn | its a lot there | 01:10 |
| IndyGunFreak | well, i'd suggest starting at "Introduction" | 01:10 |
| IndyGunFreak | Gunn: what sound device do you have? | 01:10 |
| Gunn | well I have an on board card and an audigy card | 01:10 |
| Gunn | it recognises the audigy card which im plugged into but when I do test no sound comes out | 01:11 |
| IndyGunFreak | Gunn: plug into the onboard sound and see if it works. | 01:11 |
| Gunn | ok | 01:11 |
| kakoonia | filloy: i cant find there a Gutsy version for AWN, is it the one for Feisty? | 01:11 |
| snkmad | how do i umount a iso file i mounted as loop? | 01:11 |
| D600-ubuntu | anyone heard about that HDD bug with gutsy | 01:12 |

| sozo | how do I change the keyboard shortcut for window resize (ALT+F8) to what it was in dapper (ALT+right mouse button) ? | 01:12 |
| D600-ubuntu | i just read online that after a year your notebook harddrive dies | 01:12 |
| IndyGunFreak | Gunn: so most likely, you need to go into your BIOS, and disable your ownboard sound. | 01:12 |
| D600-ubuntu | something to do with the power management settings or something | 01:12 |
| zoidberg_ | guys is there a way to watch .swf streaming files on a standalone application? | 01:12 |

| Cryoniq | I dont understand one d... thing now.. had tons of trouble getting my ati 9800 pro to work.. so I do yet another fresh install of gutsy and.. wt... it works out of the box.. compiz and all just pops into action.. I am very confused atm... very... | 01:14 |
| Gunn | Has anyone been able to play Team Fortress 2 on ubuntu, if so how | 01:14 |
| fujin | lol | 01:15 |
| fujin | gl getting TF2 running on Ubuntu. | 01:15 |
| fujin | you do realise it needs dx9? | 01:15 |
| fujin | I highly doubt Cedega will even run it. | 01:15 |
| Cryoniq | I seen a guide getting it to work with wine.. | 01:15 |
| Gunn | i've seen a youtube video of someone doing it | 01:15 |
| orionr | how do i find out what wireless networks are around me by using the terminal and iwconfig i guess? | 01:15 |
| Cryoniq | or if it was wine-doors even | 01:15 |
| Gunn | so I know it can be done | 01:15 |
| D600-ubuntu | maybe cedega | 01:15 |
| D600-ubuntu | but you have to pay for that software | 01:16 |
| scguy318 | orionr: i think iwconfig scan devname | 01:16 |
| IndyGunFreak | Gunn: then ask that person? | 01:16 |
| studheim | hi all -- n00b question -- how do you install an RPM package with ubuntu? | 01:16 |
| Cryoniq | Wasn't cedega.. it was wine.. | 01:16 |
| PriceChild | !rpm | studheim | 01:16 |
| ubotu | studheim: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous) | 01:16 |
| scguy318 | studheim: convert it to a deb with alien, then install it, but whats the package? | 01:16 |
| LukeEkblad | I tryed to update ubuntu and this also comes up. | 01:16 |
| soothsayer | zoidberg_: You can play .flvs in MPlayer (Totem too I think). Not sure about swf. I know there is a stand-alone Flash player but don't know if handles swf. | 01:16 |
| Ravager | can anyone help me with black screen on the boot ? | 01:16 |

| Gunn | I know webcam32 did it in windows | 01:17 |
| wren | The USB wireless adaptor that worked fine for me in Feisty is causing nothing but lockups under Gutsy. Has anyone heard of problems like this? | 01:17 |

| m0ntassar | hi all, I have feisty fawn and I cant find apache mod_security2 on default repositories, does any one know what repository do I need to add to find it ?! | 01:17 |
| fatcatmatt | WOOT! got xfce going | 01:18 |
| IndyGunFreak | Gunn: Print Screen button?.. you should have "Take Screenshot" under APplications/Accessories | 01:18 |
| studheim | ubotu & scguy318: trying to install VMWare Player | 01:18 |
| DeathStar | Gunn, if you do a search in synaptics for webcam you'll find tools | 01:18 |
| D600-ubuntu | black screen on boot | 01:18 |
| scguy318 | IndyGunFreak: im thinking he wants something automated | 01:18 |
| D600-ubuntu | is it from the live cd the black screen | 01:18 |
| scguy318 | Gunn: if you google, I think there's a nice guide to it, lemme find it | 01:18 |
| Gunn | not trying to take a screenshot, I am trying to snap a photo from my webcam every 10 seconds and upload it to my site, so my mother can see me, I am in a different country | 01:19 |
| scguy318 | Gunn: http://infectedproject.wordpress.com/2007/06/26/set-up-a-webcam-security-system/ (ignore the step about compiling gspca, I think Ubuntu Gutsy should have that already integrated) | 01:19 |
| zaxius | how do i make compiz the default instead of typing compiz --replace every boot? | 01:19 |
| Gunn | webcam32 did it just fine, but now im tryin to find something here on ubuntu | 01:19 |
| D600-ubuntu | you could make a script | 01:19 |
| scguy318 | Gunn: skip to step 3 | 01:19 |
| m0ntassar | hi all, I have feisty fawn and I cant find apache mod_security2 on default repositories, does any one know what repository do I need to add to find it ?! | 01:20 |
| filloy | Pici: the bum tool lists cups as a running service, but not as a startup script, so this suggests cups isnt starting at boot time | 01:20 |
| Ravager | if i change the the screen resolution to 1280x1024 on live cd everything work fine when install ubuntu everything is black | 01:20 |
| jmg | hi all | 01:21 |
| jmg | anyone know about bug #96240 | 01:21 |
| Pinchiukas | anybody getting less battery life out of linux than out of windows? | 01:22 |
| m0ntassar | does any one know on wich repository can I find mod_security for apache2 | 01:22 |
| m0ntassar | ?! | 01:22 |
| scguy318 | Gunn: anything you need clarification on? | 01:22 |
| scguy318 | Pinchiukas: might be trackerd :P | 01:22 |
| Pinchiukas | scguy318 huh? | 01:23 |
| scguy318 | Pinchiukas: the indexing service on Gutsy | 01:23 |
| junmin_ | window new | 01:23 |
| scguy318 | Pinchiukas: very expensive when it initially indexes everything | 01:23 |
| Gunn | trying to get motion right now | 01:23 |
| Pinchiukas | don't think so :/ | 01:23 |
| Gunn | see if I can go from there | 01:23 |
| D600-ubuntu | packages.ubuntu.com try doing a search their | 01:23 |
| scguy318 | Pinchiukas: and I think theres more stuff running by default, i dunno | 01:23 |
| DeathStar | sweetness | 01:23 |
| Pinchiukas | scguy318 the cpu usage isn't more 10% | 01:24 |
| scguy318 | Pinchiukas: mm, wouldn't know :( | 01:24 |
| Pinchiukas | maybe it's supposed to be like that? | 01:24 |
| Burlynn | Pinchiukas: might be a difference in how they do cpu scaling and/or fan running | 01:24 |
| junmin_ | hello | 01:24 |
| Pinchiukas | I think the fan speed is set via hardware | 01:25 |
| Pinchiukas | and I have downclocked cpu and gpu the same amount on windows and ubuntu | 01:25 |
| Gunn | so I did sudo apt-get install motion and it gives me some error | 01:25 |
| Burlynn | depends on the laptop. i know some people have had issues with fans running more or not at all under ubuntu as opposed to windows that they had to reconfigure via the OS | 01:26 |
| Pinchiukas | and is it normal that kaffeine crashes after I install some codecs to play movies? :) | 01:26 |

| Gunn | but I dont have webcam32 | 01:32 |

| picard_pwns_kirk | okay | 01:50 |
| Gunn | im not following what your saying | 01:50 |
| scguy318 | LukeEkblad: change your mirror? | 01:50 |
| LukeEkblad | huh? | 01:50 |
| scguy318 | LukeEkblad: System -> Administration -> Software Sources, change the download from source | 01:50 |
| scguy318 | LukeEkblad: looks like that mirror feils | 01:50 |
| MattJ | They're not mirrors, they're custom repositories | 01:50 |
| LukeEkblad | ok i'm there | 01:51 |
| LukeEkblad | what do i do now? | 01:51 |
| Pogonip | what directory is the kernel source in? | 01:51 |
| Gunn | scguy what do you mean by -d /dev/w/e | 01:51 |
| MattJ | LukeEkblad: Did you add those repositories yourself? | 01:51 |
| scguy318 | Gunn: at the command line, type camorama -d /dev/thevideodevicethatyouwant | 01:51 |
| scguy318 | Gunn: i think you should have /dev/video0 and /dev/video1 | 01:51 |
| Gunn | ah ok | 01:51 |
| LukeEkblad | Ya, i did i think | 01:51 |
| scguy318 | LukeEkblad: they appear to be non-functioning, so remove :) | 01:52 |
| scguy318 | LukeEkblad: in any case they would have been disabled on upgrade anyway | 01:52 |
| LukeEkblad | Ok | 01:52 |
| Gunn | ah that works | 01:52 |
| Gunn | great! | 01:52 |
| LukeEkblad | there under 3rd party or what? | 01:52 |
| scguy318 | LukeEkblad: yep | 01:52 |
| scguy318 | LukeEkblad: you definitely dont need them anyway | 01:52 |
| Gunn | now to get the upload to work | 01:52 |
| scguy318 | LukeEkblad: for Wine wine.budgetdedicated.com or Ubuntu Gutsy's wine should suffice | 01:53 |
| djcabz | before I experiment, does anyone know of way to force dhclient to delete the dhcp.lease database? | 01:53 |
| scguy318 | LukeEkblad: and Ubuntu has ntfs-3g anyway | 01:53 |
| LukeEkblad | what? | 01:53 |
| clusty | when i am runing xawtv i get the following error message: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/43358/ | 01:53 |

| DemonPuppy | okay i need a super geek desperately | 01:54 |
| scguy318 | DemonPuppy: whats the question | 01:54 |
| Op3r | DemonPuppy, ask the question and you shall recieve an answer | 01:55 |
| Gunn | hmmm I set up all the ftp info to my web server and told it to capture every 10 seconds but its not uploading i dont think | 01:55 |
| Pogonip | Says "/usr/src/linux/ is not a valid kernel source tree", any ideas? | 01:56 |
| Cryoniq | Disk sleep utility in gutsy.. that spin down disk drives that aren't used. Is there something like it? | 01:56 |
| scguy318 | Gunn: refresh? | 01:56 |
| Gunn | heh I've been doing so | 01:57 |
| MasterShrek | Cryoniq, hdparm | 01:57 |
| Pogonip | Says "/usr/src/kernels is not a valid kernel source tree", any ideas? | 01:57 |
| DemonPuppy | i installed wubi and am trying to run 7.10 but the graphics card hates it | 01:57 |
| DemonPuppy | it freezes at the splash screen | 01:57 |
| DemonPuppy | is there any way to change the resolution in grub or am i screwed | 01:57 |
| Cryoniq | MasterShrek: thanks =) | 01:57 |
| Op3r | Pogonip, should be like this linux-headers-2.6.22-14 linux-headers-2.6.22-14-generic edwin@Edwin:/usr/src$ pwd /usr/src | 01:57 |
| Gunn | unless there is a "start uploading" option somewhere in camorama but I dont see that | 01:57 |
| MasterShrek | DemonPuppy, you can disable the splash, remove the work splash from the kernel line in /boot/grub/menu.lst | 01:57 |
| MasterShrek | word* | 01:58 |
| picard_pwns_kirk | MasterShrek, you might want to guide him through it | 01:58 |

| MasterShrek | i should think so riotkittie | 01:59 |

| sexcopter | hi, how can i change the log-in screen appearance? I gave xubuntu a spin and am back on ubuntu, but the log-in is themed on xubuntu still... | 02:00 |
| riotkittie | argh. then why is my resolution flubbed. <gets cranky> | 02:00 |
| MasterShrek | not sure exactly riotkittie, always seemed to work fine for me | 02:00 |
| LjL | Pogonip: /usr/src, but shouldn't you just be able to use module-assistant? | 02:00 |
| MattJ | riotkittie: It just happened? | 02:00 |
| scguy318 | Gunn: hmm, my knowledge ends here, though if you get it working, g/l :) | 02:01 |
| Gunn | ok | 02:01 |
| djcabz | WOW! I'm overwhelmed by bash's sensitivity to things like cd /etc/res<TAB> when verus vi /etc/res<TAB> (I was looking for the file 'resolv.conf') | 02:01 |
| riotkittie | MattJ: it happened after X crashed a few weeks ago. i shouldnt care because i'm seeing it for all of like 3 seconds but at the same time, grr | 02:01 |
| DemonPuppy2 | :( I Have no idea how | 02:02 |
| MasterShrek | djcabz, bash is very intuitive | 02:02 |
| riotkittie | and it had happened before and i seemed to fix it by copying xorg.conf over from another gutsy install. but even that isnt helping now. | 02:02 |
| MattJ | riotkittie: Only in GDM? Odd... | 02:02 |
| djcabz | thanks scguy318 and frogzoo I think I'm straightened out now.... | 02:02 |
| dowlings | Hi I changed ZSNES to fullscreen mode and now when I try to run it it just makes the screen go black like it is about to start and then closes on me and never actually starts, does anyone know what is wrong? | 02:02 |
| djcabz | MasterShrek: so I am learning | 02:02 |
| juanbond | Is there a way to show the status messages while booting? I know you can do CTRL + ALT + F1, but is there a way to show that in the boot screen? | 02:02 |
| scguy318 | juanbond: like no splash? | 02:03 |
| MasterShrek | juanbond, i think f2 or ctrl+alt+f2, iirc, or just disable the splash | 02:03 |
| DemonPuppy2 | master how EXACTLY do i do what you told me :( | 02:03 |
| juanbond | I want to still have the splash, but show the messages like underneath the ubuntu logo and progress bar. | 02:04 |
| DemonPuppy2 | i have no idea what i'm doing | 02:04 |
| MasterShrek | juanbond, youll need to use a different splash then, the default ubuntu one doesnt show things | 02:04 |
| calladita | hola | 02:04 |
| scguy318 | Gunn: if Camorama isn't working out for you, there seems to be a program named webcam that does the functionality you require | 02:04 |

| racarter | what is the proper way to completely remove a package? | 02:42 |
| scguy318 | sysop: lemme look, googling seems to have something | 02:42 |
| racarter | and its dependencies | 02:42 |
| sysop | scguy: so what do you recomend??? | 02:42 |
| Ackdar | <TheDoctor> if it is capable of doing two monitors at once, you will need two separate Device sections in your X server's configuration, even though it's only one card | 02:42 |
| scguy318 | sysop: moment | 02:42 |
| scragar | Dankchild: what happens when you try to play it? | 02:42 |
| Burlynn | LjL: one try is hardly fishing. if you dont want people trying to use the bot maybe you should keep bang commands to you opers | 02:42 |
| sysop | scguy: cool1 | 02:42 |
| LjL | Dankchild, can't say with 100% certainty, but i've always heard it's impossible to play DRM'd WMV's on Linux. | 02:42 |
| Ackdar | <TheDoctor> you put "Screen 0" on one and "Screen 1" on the other, I believe <<-- Is this true? | 02:42 |
| Ackdar | I have a Intel 82845G/GL | 02:43 |
| scguy318 | sysop: googling gives me this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=2522803&postcount=14 | 02:43 |
| Dankchild | when i use vlc its just a bunch of different colors and other players give me errors | 02:43 |
| LjL | Burlynn: what's wrong with just trying it in a PM before doing it in the channel? that's what i do, it's not like i remember every single bot factoid. there is also a "search" command. | 02:43 |

| xardion | hola peeps. Trying to find out the absolute bare minimum packages required on ubuntu to run X apps headless, i.e. I only ever want to use SSH X11 forwarding | 02:53 |
| slumous | Hey. suddenly my sound is having problems, after playing something for more than a couple minutes it starts getting really staticy | 02:53 |
| LucianIndy | vmlinuz`: i believe the program 'avidemux' would do the trick | 02:53 |
| kahrytan | LucianIndy, , you check preferences fold permissions? | 02:53 |
| kahrytan | *folder | 02:53 |
| LjL | xardion: why don't you just install the packages you need over ubuntu-minimal? the needed libraries will get installed. | 02:53 |
| LucianIndy | kahrytan: where is the folder located? | 02:53 |
| vmlinuz` | LucianIndy: Thank you, thats a start for me. because I'm pretty noob in that. then after saparating all these, how would i burn them into DVD. i want them to be played in the dvd players to show them for my friends:) | 02:53 |
| kmg | hey, i'm trying to run captive-ntfs to write to an ntfs drive, and it's giving me an error message I don't understand: /usr/libexec/captive-sandbox-server: lstat/stat("/var/lib/captive/") of chroot path component mode has 0002! | 02:53 |
| xardion | openssh requires xauth to do the forwarding, but installing xauth requires 4GB of dependencies, and that's no good for my platform | 02:54 |
| scguy318 | kmg: why Captive? does NTFS-3G not do it for you? ive found Captive NTFS to be crappy buggy | 02:54 |
| LucianIndy | vmlinuz`: use gnomebaker | 02:54 |
| kahrytan | LucianIndy, .purple in home | 02:54 |
| kmg | really? | 02:54 |
| scguy318 | kmg: yes | 02:54 |
| LucianIndy | ah, alright thank you | 02:54 |
| NumbaWon | thanks LjL | 02:54 |
| kmg | well i'm new to the whole thing, captive looked pretty promising | 02:54 |
| vmlinuz` | LucianIndy: gnomebaker is a burner? | 02:54 |
| scguy318 | !ntfs-3g | kmg | 02:54 |
| ubotu | kmg: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions | 02:54 |
| LucianIndy | yes | 02:54 |
| xardion | I was looking for a possible alternative that would just have the bare minimum libraries and utilities, but no actually ability to run a display | 02:54 |
| LucianIndy | vmlinuz`: yes | 02:54 |
| vmlinuz` | LucianIndy: can k3b do the trick? | 02:54 |
| LjL | xardion: uh? i only get 10 megs of dependencies | 02:55 |
| kmg | cool thanks i'll look into it | 02:55 |
| slumous | Hey. suddenly my sound is having problems, after playing something for more than a couple minutes it starts getting really staticy. I have an CK804 Nvidia built in | 02:55 |
| LucianIndy | yeah if you want to burden your gnome with kde apps | 02:55 |
| sonicdude | i need help with sonicwall | 02:55 |
| xardion | damnit | 02:55 |
| sonicdude | vpn | 02:55 |
| xardion | I can't read | 02:55 |
| xardion | 4478Kb | 02:55 |
| vmlinuz` | LucianIndy: but my question is. if I have mpeg-4 file. what should i burn it to make it something like the DVD movies. that plays into dvd players. What kind of burn does it called. "thats my question" is it image burn, or what. | 02:55 |
| xardion | heheheh | 02:55 |
| xardion | you can slap me now | 02:55 |
| LucianIndy | use avidemux | 02:55 |
| LjL | =) | 02:55 |
| kahrytan | LucianIndy, pregs stored in prefs.xml file under .purple | 02:55 |
| kahrytan | *prefs | 02:55 |
| kingwen | :) | 02:55 |
| LucianIndy | it will split and you can also output dvd format files | 02:56 |
| xardion | I dunno how I read that as Mb | 02:56 |
| LjL | xardion: are you aware of the minimal cd? | 02:56 |
| LucianIndy | kahrytan: thank you very much! appreciate it | 02:56 |
| xardion | yeah | 02:56 |
| LjL | xardion: it's less than 5 megs | 02:56 |
| xardion | this is a preinstalled virtual machine | 02:56 |
| xardion | I'm not THAT limited, heh | 02:56 |
| slumous | Can anyone help me with my sudden staticky sound problem? | 02:56 |
| LjL | xardion i have a site at http://apt.byethost14.com/ which can help calculating download sizes for packages and dependencies in advance, perhaps it can be of some use, though it's not updated for Gutsy yet. you can simulate different scenarios and see how much space is taken | 02:58 |
| xardion | LjL: cool | 02:58 |
| LucianIndy | brb | 02:58 |
| kahrytan | LjL, doesnt synaptic do that already? | 02:58 |
| LjL | kahrytan, i have no idea, i'm on KDE | 02:59 |
| shinda | was wondering if anyone knew any alternative way to start the strigi dameon, right now when I go configure I get taken to the strigi konqueor page, and click start daemon but it doesn't seem to go anywhere so thought mayabe there was a cli method tried /etc/init.d/ but theres no strigi option | 02:59 |
| kahrytan | LjL, It shows how much space is going to be used. | 02:59 |
| LucianIndy | kahrytan: that didn't work | 02:59 |
| kahrytan | LucianIndy, did you check .purple folder and prefs.xml file permissions? | 03:00 |
| LjL | kahrytan: apt-get does that too, but it's based on *what you already have on your system*. if you want to just simulate possibilities (like, "let's see how much space xauth takes if i only have ubuntu-minimal installed"), you can use that site and input "xauth" and "ubuntu-minimal" | 03:00 |
| kmg | ok, now that i've enabled writing to ntfs volumes in my ntfs configuration tool, how can I mount the drive? it says I don't have access when i use the filebrowser, which usually works | 03:00 |
| LucianIndy | i checked prefs. . . i overlooked checking .purple | 03:00 |
| buttercups | LucianIndy, delete the entire .purple folder | 03:00 |

| LucianIndy | **PIDGIN** I just deleted the .purple folder because the preferences weren't being updated. When I loaded pidgin back up, I saw it create the new files. Then I made preference changes and closed and reopened pidgin. Guess what, it didn't even make a damn prefs.xml file. Why is pidgin not writing preferences? | 03:12 |
| tonyduke | everything goes well :) | 03:12 |

| mrbrown | btw my sound worked in dapper | 03:25 |
| SpeakerMania | mrbrown: did you upgrade or fresh install? | 03:25 |
| Ragewarp | yes, it froze when starting the partition process | 03:25 |
| usrl | mrbrown: First thing I'd do is check volume controls. I installed gutsy, my PCM was muted so I didn't get any sound. Sounds stupid, but it's a quick fix if that's the case | 03:26 |
| mrbrown | ok lemme check it out real quick | 03:26 |
| tonyduke | you have multiple hds? | 03:26 |
| akk | Is there a way to upgrade feisty to gutsy over the net without overwriting grub? | 03:26 |
| brontos | Good evening all. Why would I be asked to enter my cd for 7.10 when I install some things? | 03:26 |
| mrbrown | nope just one | 03:26 |
| usrl | brontos: because of your sources | 03:26 |
| akk | I've been googling but can't find anything, and can't figure out where do-release-upgrade is doing the grub step | 03:26 |
| levander | What's the difference between the nvidia-glx and the nvidia-glx-new packages? Their descriptions are exactly the same. | 03:27 |
| brontos | usrl: You know how I would go about fixing them? | 03:27 |
| usrl | brontos: Go to System->Administration->Software Sources, uncheck your CD, and then refresh | 03:27 |

| shirish | hi all, does anybody have any idea what paramter is good to set for tune2fs ? I wanna set it up so it doesn't check frequently the hdd (fsck) while at the same time if the file-system is dirty it should check it, any or all suggestion will be nice. | 03:35 |
| searayman | how can i find this: .xsession-errors | 03:36 |
| LucianIndy | i mean prior to upgrading to gutsy, i had gaim. . . after i upgraded, it would seem to me that my current gaim installation was just modified to become pidgin rather than actually removing the outdated software and initializing a fresh install | 03:36 |
| adorablepuppy | shirish: I'm a lot less annoyed with 50 instead of 20. | 03:37 |
| LucianIndy | and on feisty, gaim was only thing in the repositories | 03:37 |

| LucianIndy | yw | 03:38 |
| Kl4m | LucianIndy: gaim is no more, it's pidgin in gutsy. If you install the package "gaim" it installs nothing. It just tells to install pidgin instead | 03:38 |
| adorablepuppy | Gunn: you should just be able to do sudo apt-get install wine unless you installed it yourself. . . | 03:38 |
| Gunn | well i did that before and it gave me an out of date version apparently | 03:38 |
| Shpoo1 | searayman: it's hidden in your home folder | 03:38 |
| steviedee | anyone use AWN? | 03:39 |
| Kl4m | LucianIndy: that is, the package marks pidgin to be installed along the "gaim" package (as a dependency) | 03:39 |
| searayman | Shpoo1: that wa sit thank | 03:39 |
| Shpoo1 | welcome | 03:39 |
| of | when i run a cron job is it enough to just crontab -e */1 * * * * /home/user/job.sh | 03:39 |

| of | ? | 03:39 |
| Gunn | svn ? | 03:39 |
| adorablepuppy | subversion, newest package. Bleeding edge | 03:39 |
| Gunn | ah pardon my lack of terminology | 03:40 |
| adorablepuppy | I believe wine uses subversion and not cvs. . . | 03:40 |

| scguy318 | Gunn: have you added the Wine repos? i havent been following the spat in #winehq | 03:42 |
| Innatech | OK, so the problem w/my sshd is that it's only listening for IPv6 -- and this is straight out of the .deb install. How do I fix it? | 03:42 |
| mudore | my fglrx drive put some (black or messtup) aria off my screen. What is it? | 03:42 |
| scguy318 | Gunn: im just about ready to sleep tbfh | 03:42 |
| Me8myself | pardom me | 03:42 |
| Me8myself | i thought a live cd and accual instal where diffrent | 03:43 |
| Gunn | hmmm | 03:43 |
| adorablepuppy | Anyone know of any screen recording software readily available as a .deb or installable through apt? | 03:43 |
| astro76 | Me8myself, indeed, just running the livecd doesn't affect your hard drives, until you double click the install icon on the desktop to actually install | 03:43 |
| IdleOne | Me8myself: the Live cd is also a install cd | 03:43 |
| SpeakerMania | akk, what file am i opening again? | 03:43 |
| scguy318 | adorablepuppy: recordmydesktop, xvidsomething | 03:43 |
| astro76 | !screencast | adorablepuppy | 03:43 |
| ubotu | adorablepuppy: Some programs to capture your screen are Istanbul, Wink, Gvidcap, Xvidcap, vnc2swf, demorecorder. Also see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ScreenCasts. | 03:43 |
| Gunn | well wine is off my system now, my next step is getting an updated version of it back on, and then finding a way to get STEAM onto my system | 03:43 |
| Me8myself | ok but when i instal will it format the hardrive or can i tell it to partition | 03:44 |
| adorablepuppy | Thanks guys! | 03:44 |
| akk | /boot/grub/menu.lst ... but /boot is probably something like /media/disk1 or something when you're in a live CD | 03:44 |
| macd | adorablepuppy, also 'istanbul' | 03:44 |
| steviedee | is this ubuntu help forum? | 03:44 |
| scguy318 | Gunn: Gutsy? | 03:45 |
| scguy318 | steviedee: this is Ubuntu support chan this is it | 03:45 |
| Gunn | what is that | 03:45 |
| adorablepuppy | Anyone got recommendations? I know I can't expect a camtasia studio, but any of them close? | 03:45 |
| macd | adorablepuppy, they all output in common media formats | 03:45 |
| steviedee | cool, how do i map the sound buttons on my laptop to control the master sound | 03:45 |
| scguy318 | Gunn: are you using Ubuntu Gutsy? | 03:45 |
| steviedee | yes | 03:45 |
| scguy318 | Gunn: if you don't know type the command lsb_release -a | 03:45 |
| kingwen | ºÃ | 03:45 |
| Gunn | Unbuntu 7.10 codename gutsy | 03:46 |
| mudore | why do I get black scares on my screen with my fglrx driver? | 03:46 |
| SpeakerMania | akk, what am I looking for? | 03:46 |
| scguy318 | Gunn: goody, ok | 03:46 |
| scguy318 | Gunn: copy and paste this command: andrew@andrew-laptop:~$ uptime | 03:46 |
| scguy318 | 21:40:14 up 14 days, 10:10, 4 users, load average: 0.36, 0.86, 1.02 | 03:46 |
| scguy318 | Gunn: oops | 03:46 |

| Shpoo1 | Anyone know how to remove a broken package? It was installed using dpkg. I tried removing it using dpkg, but it says the package is in a very bad inconsistent state, and to reinstall, but it won't reinstall. | 03:47 |
| akk | SpeakerMania: page way down to where the bootable kernels are -- probably just after a comment saying ## ## End Default Options ## | 03:47 |
| Gunn | it said "OK" | 03:47 |
| bruenig | scguy318, ok well yeah windows clients probably not | 03:47 |
| BlackPhoenix313 | !fstab | 03:47 |
| scguy318 | Gunn: okay, god | 03:48 |
| akk | SpeakerMania: look at the first one (or whichever one you've been trying to boot) -- it should have four lines | 03:48 |
| scguy318 | Gunn: good | 03:48 |
| Gunn | all it said was "OK" after I put that in | 03:48 |
| akk | SpeakerMania: title, root, kernel, and initrd | 03:48 |
| BlackPhoenix313 | !fstab | 03:48 |
| ubotu | The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions | 03:48 |
| scguy318 | Gunn: sudo wget http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/sources.list.d/gutsy.list -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/winehq.list | 03:48 |
| SpeakerMania | akk, everything looks fine | 03:48 |
| akk | SpeakerMania: for the problem I was seeing, the initrd line was missing (and ubuntu kernels won't boot without it) | 03:48 |
| Gunn | k thats done | 03:48 |
| Gunn | saved [181/181] | 03:48 |
| PaulButler | is there a way to use wildcard characters in my /etc/hosts file? | 03:48 |
| akk | SpeakerMania: While you're looking there, check the kernel specified there, and make sure there's a file by that name in /boot | 03:49 |
| _Garbage_ | I need help installing Ubuntu on HP Laptop | 03:49 |
| scguy318 | Gunn: sudo apt-get install wine | 03:49 |
| scguy318 | Gunn: no | 03:49 |
| akk | SpeakerMania: (that's the /boot mounted from your hard drive, not whatever's mounted as /boot on the live cd) | 03:49 |
| scguy318 | Gunn: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install wine | 03:49 |
| Gunn | ok | 03:49 |
| Shpoo1 | Anyone? None of my package managers will work untill I remove this broken package, and I need to install my printer. | 03:49 |
| cdm10 | Shpoo1: Open a terminal, and run < sudo dpkg --configure -a > | 03:50 |
| Me8myself | so if i install ubuntu i will not have to format my harddrive to do so | 03:50 |
| Gunn | k its getting it | 03:50 |
| blueskiesokie | is there a way to copy olny files newer than a certain date recursively from a directory to another folder? | 03:50 |
| cdm10 | Me8myself: No, you'll just need to resize your existing partitions to make room for a new Ubuntu partition. | 03:50 |
| Gunn | installing it now | 03:50 |
| astro76 | Me8myself, no... what do you have currently? | 03:50 |
| IdleOne | Me8myself: not unless you want to. the installer asks you what you want to do | 03:50 |
| cdm10 | blueskiesokie: You could use a shellscript | 03:50 |
| Gunn | k its done | 03:50 |
| SpeakerMania | akk, the kernel is there. after the kernel is defined there is a "root=UUID=[randomness]" shoudl that be there? | 03:50 |
| scguy318 | SpeakerMania: yes | 03:51 |
| Gunn | scguy318: wine has installed again | 03:51 |
| Me8myself | so i would whant to chose the function of use largest continuous free space to install | 03:51 |
| Shpoo1 | cdm10: thank you, it didn't fix it, but pointed to a dependancy I'm missing | 03:51 |
| akk | SpeakerMania: oh, yes, that's okay (though I have no idea how to verify that it's right since it's not very human readable) | 03:51 |
| cdm10 | Shpoo1: okay, hope that helped | 03:52 |
| Innatech | can anyone tell me why sshd as installed in the openssh-server package in the Gutsy repos only listens for IPv6 and ignores a conf line to do otherwise? | 03:52 |
| scguy318 | Gunn: btw, to spare ourselvse further trouble | 03:52 |
| scguy318 | Gunn: download the Steam MSI again | 03:52 |
| Shpoo1 | cdm10: it did, any progress is good progress | 03:52 |
| SpeakerMania | scguy318, here is my original problem: I was using my Ubuntu rig running 7.10. A power surge/power outage occured for ~5 seconds. My computer turned off. Upon boot, I get the following: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/43378/ | 03:52 |
| Gunn | ok will do | 03:52 |
| scguy318 | Gunn: do rm -rf ~/.wine, then do wine iexplore http://winehq.org | 03:53 |
| Gunn | k the MSI is done | 03:53 |
| Gunn | should I run that command ? | 03:53 |
| Me8myself | i just got a popup telling me i dont have enough space for partition even tho i have 99 gigs free | 03:53 |
| scguy318 | Gunn: yes, rm -rf ~/.wine && wine iexplore http://winehq.org | 03:54 |
| sjovan | hey, where is the icon themefolder? | 03:55 |
| Gunn | ok | 03:55 |
| Gunn | it launched the wine gecko installer | 03:55 |
| Me8myself | i have 5 options for partioning... and 3 of them are 0s | 03:55 |
| cdm10 | sjovan: ~/.icons or /usr/share/icons I believe | 03:56 |
| scguy318 | Gunn: install | 03:56 |
| Gunn | doing so | 03:56 |
| sjovan | cdm10: thanx | 03:56 |
| scguy318 | Gunn: after installation, check to see that the homepage of Wine is loaded | 03:56 |
| Gunn | yep it loaded | 03:56 |
| astro76 | Me8myself, what do you have currently? | 03:56 |
| Innatech | Anyone? SSH? Only listening for IPv6 traffic, won't listen for IPv4? This is as installed by aptitude. | 03:56 |
| scguy318 | Gunn: good, close the window, then do wine start SteamInstall.msi | 03:57 |
| Gunn | gave me errors | 03:57 |
| Me8myself | astro76: if you mean by whats on the hardrive, i have winxp and docs, then 99 gigs left of leway | 03:57 |
| Gunn | calvin@calvin-ubuntu:~$ wine start SteamInstall.msi | 03:58 |
| Gunn | fixme:exec:SHELL_execute flags ignored: 0x00000500 | 03:58 |

| Gunn | ShellExecuteEx failed: File not found | 03:58 |
| astro76 | Me8myself, so you have two ntfs partitions? which one has the 99 gigs free on it and which one is first? | 03:58 |
| of | help with cron job anyone? | 03:58 |
| scguy318 | Gunn: make sure you cd to Desktop | 03:59 |
| Me8myself | astro76: no partitions that what im trying to do, i whant to instal ubuntu gutsy gibron but i whant to put it on its own so i dont screw around with anything on the harddrive | 04:00 |
| theBishop | hi, i'm noticing seriously degraded performance with my Broadcom 4318 (wireless nic) since upgrading to Gutsy | 04:00 |
| Gunn | just cd ~/desktop right ? | 04:00 |

| sjovan | i moved the unzipped folder to ~/.icons but, that didn't help | 04:01 |

| Gunn | install of steam is launched | 04:02 |
| astro76 | Me8myself, I'm pretty sure the automatic option in the installer will only resize the right-most partition, which would be your D... you are going to want to exit the installer and run System > Administration > Partition Editor and do this manually | 04:02 |

| bigmb | So, is there any easy software for resizing JPG files? (make a picture smaller) | 04:03 |
| scguy318 | bigmb: convert app I think | 04:03 |
| scguy318 | bigmb: cmd-line but I think it does it | 04:04 |
| astro76 | bigmb, install nautilus-image-converter | 04:04 |
| astro76 | bigmb, then you can do it in the file manager | 04:04 |
| akk | bigfuzzyjesus: convert is part of imagemagick, and works well if you have lots of files | 04:05 |

| Nedski | Hey people. how do you change the screen resolution when the menu option where you usually do it is hidden? | 04:07 |
| SirBob1701 | anyone else get the hard lockups in gutsy? to point where you can't use mouse and keyboard? | 04:07 |
| astro76 | Me8myself, then you can just tell the installer to install in the free space | 04:07 |
| astro76 | SirBob1701, that's usually a hardware problem | 04:08 |
| somervil | Nedski, Im not sure what you mean, but you can do it from the command line with xrandr | 04:08 |

| Moose | So, I'm new to Linux.. not completely new but definitely not an experienced user. What are some awesome things I can do on here, also what makes it better than Windows XP? | 04:27 |
| PinkFloyd | Is there a way I can get a bash script to run when a file is dropped into a directory? | 04:27 |
| newguy | cool ty | 04:27 |
| fowlduck | anyone? | 04:27 |
| PinkFloyd | Moose, play with viruses | 04:27 |
| SpeakerMania | Moose, have you seen a BSOD? It is already better. ;) | 04:27 |
| SpeakerMania | nalpha, your printer is connected to your ubuntu machine, right? | 04:28 |
| alch3mist | Moose : free+dom no virus | 04:28 |
| usrl | Moose: Well the coolest thing you can do is not run Windows. Congrats, you're already doing it. | 04:28 |
| PinkFloyd | Just dont chmod a+x a file you know is a virus | 04:28 |
| PinkFloyd | lol | 04:28 |
| Moose | SpeakerMania: So far yeah, that's what is quite awesome about it, when something crashes.. the entire system doesn't die :) | 04:28 |
| newguy | would i need to add the logging in users by way of the "users and groups" menu in system >> administrator? | 04:28 |
| fowlduck | Moose: the benefits are so varied and dependent upon use that it would be too difficult to explain without some context | 04:28 |
| nalpha | SpeakerMania: yes it's connected | 04:28 |
| nalpha | SpeakerMania: and it can be used... | 04:28 |
| alch3mist | Moose : have you tried compiz-fusion lately? | 04:28 |
| fowlduck | so, about the packages being held back in apt-get | 04:28 |
| nalpha | SpeakerMania: from other ubuntu machine i can print with that URL | 04:28 |
| fowlduck | how can i get it to install them? | 04:28 |
| adorablepuppy | I'm on Gutsy. My Templates don't seem to be registering in my context menu. | 04:29 |
| Moose | alch3mist: Never heard of it. | 04:29 |
| PinkFloyd | fowlduck manually install | 04:29 |
| nalpha | SpeakerMania: do you know what's the problem? | 04:29 |
| PinkFloyd | fowlduck or force install | 04:29 |
| astro76 | newguy, that will work | 04:29 |
| newguy | ah excellent ty, | 04:29 |
| SpeakerMania | nalpha, Windows isn't as nice to linux as linux is to Windows. Basically, that means that Ubuntu IS letting Windows connect to the printer, but it is Windows that can't figure it out. Try going backwards i.e. having the printer on your windows machine and connecting to it via ubuntu | 04:29 |
| fowlduck | PinkFloyd: thanks | 04:29 |
| PinkFloyd | Is there a way I can get a bash script to run when a file is dropped into a directory? | 04:29 |
| alch3mist | <Moose> : try it... you'll love it | 04:29 |
| newguy | so far ive added the logging in username "test' and added the user "test' to group "ssh" | 04:29 |
| astro76 | PinkFloyd, sounds like a job for a cron job | 04:30 |
| Moose | alch3mist: Err, what is it exaclty? | 04:30 |
| PinkFloyd | astro76 I have no clue about cron jobs | 04:30 |
| Moose | exactly* | 04:30 |
| Dr_Willis | PinkFloyd not that i am aware of. GNOME at one time had a user customizeable right click/context menu/scripting feature - but havent seen that used/mentioned in ages | 04:30 |
| astro76 | !cron | PinkFloyd | 04:30 |
| ubotu | PinkFloyd: cron is a way to schedule execution of software/scripts. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CronHowto - There is also a decent Howto at http://www.tech-geeks.org/contrib/mdrone/cron&crontab-howto.htm | 04:30 |
| PinkFloyd | astro76 thanks | 04:30 |
| fowlduck | Moose: Compiz-Fusion is a 3d-desktop for linux that has some awesome effects, search for it on youtube and you'll be pleasantly surprised | 04:30 |
| Moose | Will do, one second. | 04:31 |
| fowlduck | 3d-window server and window manager, technically | 04:31 |
| astro76 | PinkFloyd, you could for example have it check the directory every minute | 04:31 |
| user01 | hi . . . what does ubuntu think of apt? | 04:31 |
| PinkFloyd | astro76 that would work | 04:31 |
| astro76 | PinkFloyd, that's the finest time interval for cron | 04:31 |
| Dr_Willis | user01 Huh? | 04:31 |
| Moose | Yarr, no flash player :P | 04:31 |
| Moose | Says Firefox. | 04:31 |
| astro76 | !apt | user01 | 04:31 |
| ubotu | user01: APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome) or !Adept (KDE) | 04:31 |
| akk | Can fam watch a directory? There might be some way to do it with fam. | 04:31 |
| PinkFloyd | astro76 Im wanting to have it check ~/Wallpapers and append any new files to the backgrounds.xml | 04:31 |
| adorablepuppy | Anybody have any idea why my templates aren't working? My document template is in ~/Templates, but it's not in my Create New context menu. | 04:31 |
| nalpha | SpeakerMania: The problem is came out when I upgrading my Ubuntu 6.10 to Ubuntu 7.10 (system that connected to printer and act as printer server)..... huh... another question are you already try ubuntu 7.10 how to see Printer "job list" like ubuntu 6.10? | 04:31 |
| akk | Otherwise, maybe put a zero-size file named the same as the script, watch that file with fam for changes, and when a new version of the script is dropped in, you get a notification | 04:32 |
| SpeakerMania | Back. | 04:32 |
| fowlduck | PinkFloyd: wouldn't it be dope to have callbacks that would be called upon changing the contents of a directory in specific ways? It's not there, so you'd have to check it periodically and run something if there is a change | 04:32 |
| nalpha | SpeakerMania: The problem is came out when I upgrading my Ubuntu 6.10 to Ubuntu 7.10 (system that connected to printer and act as printer server)..... huh... another question are you already try ubuntu 7.10 how to see Printer "job list" like ubuntu 6.10? | 04:32 |
| Moose | Alrighty now here is where the problem arises; how do I install flash? :P | 04:32 |
| fowlduck | Moose: should be in the repository iirc, maybe universe | 04:32 |
| sjovan | okay, i just did some mount --rbind that i want to take back. how do i remove it? | 04:32 |
| nalpha | Moose: download the flash player from www.macromedia.com | 04:33 |
| SpeakerMania | Yeah, I am running 7.10. As far as I know nothing has changed aboutt hat... | 04:33 |
| astro76 | Moose, sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree | 04:33 |
| akk | Moose: I've had the best luck just going to adobe and downloading their installer -- it works well | 04:33 |
| Dr_Willis | !flash | 04:33 |
| SpeakerMania | about that | 04:33 |
| ubotu | To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash | 04:33 |
| dimas_ | i had a micro-processor i486 and just got a amd64 and upgrade to gutsy and i want to install automatix for gutsy but they suggest to unistall everything was set with it but i dont know if is ok if i leave them because they are in i486 and is a dual motherboard, any suggestion? | 04:33 |
| godzirra | Heya folks. ANyone know why on 7.10 I don't see a sound card anymore? | 04:33 |
| Johno | where can I get gnome ppp? | 04:33 |
| Poul|Raider | vim -> when i tapcomplet something (ctrl+p) it write the hole word etc. aint there a way to make it like, lets say the final word is raidscan. When press r it sugest all starting with r, then if i type a, it sugess all that start with ra and so on until you got the one word you want and then press enter to compleat it.? atm mine works like, if i ctrl+p it pops a box with the suggested words. | 04:33 |
| fowlduck | Moose: then again I only use ubuntu server, so listen to others | 04:33 |
| SpeakerMania | Johno, what do you want? | 04:33 |
| eric | hi im having problem with booting up normally after installing some programmes | 04:33 |
| eric | anyone help? | 04:33 |
| Johno | SpeakerMania: I want to download gnome ppp on windows and transfer it to ubuntu so I can install it | 04:34 |
| SpeakerMania | Johno, what do you mean "gnome ppp"? what do you mean by ppp? | 04:34 |
| godzirra | It used to work until I reinstalled gutsy. | 04:34 |
| Johno | its a dialer for dial up | 04:35 |
| Johno | I am tring to get dial up to work and so far I cant get anything to work | 04:35 |
| SpeakerMania | Johno, ah. I have no idea where to get that from Windows. | 04:35 |
| Johno | I followed the wiki exactly | 04:35 |
| SpeakerMania | Johno, google perhaps? | 04:35 |
| Johno | I alread tried that | 04:35 |
| Johno | can anyone help me with dial up? | 04:36 |
| SpeakerMania | Johno, well, I can't help you. I' | 04:36 |
| SpeakerMania | m sorry | 04:36 |
| === alch3mist is now known as mrYou | ||
| akk | I used to use kppp when I used dialup | 04:36 |
| Johno | its ok | 04:36 |
| akk | even though I didn't use kde | 04:36 |
| === mrYou is now known as MrYou | ||
| eric | hi im having problem with booting up normally after installing some programmes | 04:36 |
| Johno | Where do I get kppp? | 04:36 |
| eric | im running 7.10 | 04:36 |
| SpeakerMania | akk, isn't kppp only for KDE? | 04:36 |
| akk | SpeakerMania: No, it worked fine in non-kppp | 04:36 |
| internetrr | how do I get the libSDL dev stuff? | 04:37 |
| === Netham45|Shower is now known as Netham45 | ||
| SpeakerMania | akk, oh. I only used it in SLAX, which is KDE. | 04:37 |
| akk | Johno: kppp is in the repositories | 04:37 |
| akk | mind you, it was years ago that I last used it | 04:37 |
| SpeakerMania | akk, but he needs to get it from windows. | 04:37 |
| SpeakerMania | ! | 04:37 |
| Johno | That doesn't help if I cant connedt | 04:37 |
| === MrYou is now known as alch3mist | ||
| akk | oh, good point! You can probably find the .deb somewhere | 04:38 |
| SpeakerMania | Johno, connect your Ubuntu PC to your Windows machine via CAT5 | 04:38 |
| SpeakerMania | And extend your internet connection to it | 04:38 |
| Johno | how the heck do I do that | 04:38 |
| Johno | I have a crossover cable... would that work? | 04:38 |
| SpeakerMania | Yep. | 04:38 |
| godzirra | Heya folks. Anyone know why on 7.10 It doesn't detect a soundcard anymore? It worked until I reinstalled Gutsy... | 04:38 |
| Johno | then what do I do? | 04:38 |
| dancingmonkey | I have 2 systems, a 1800 XP+ and a 2.9GHz Celeron, the AMD system has a 128MB ATI Radeon 9600SE, the Celeron has integrated Intel Extreme (128MB I think). Ubuntu 7.04 was running like ass on the celeron due to the graphics limited to 800x600, or might have been 640x480. Might 7.10 give better luck, or is it still limited to better systems? | 04:39 |
| SpeakerMania | Johno, then in Windows under Network Connections, assuming it shows up... Nevermind. Hmm. I don't think the linux machine will show up in widnows. | 04:39 |
| beterraba | hello | 04:39 |
| beterraba | is there anyone online? | 04:39 |
| SpeakerMania | yes. | 04:39 |
| dancingmonkey | beterraba: No, but go ahead :) | 04:39 |
| SpeakerMania | lol | 04:39 |
| SpeakerMania | Johno, hang on a second... | 04:40 |
| akk | I can't figure out where you download debs for gutsy | 04:40 |
| akk | here's the package: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/gutsy/i386/kppp | 04:40 |
| beterraba | after i edit /etc/exports, what do i need to mount the server on nfs client? (both are pinging each other) | 04:40 |
| akk | but I don't see any link for the actual .deb | 04:40 |
| SpeakerMania | Johno, yeah, linux won't show up in windows. Darn. | 04:40 |
| dancingmonkey | Crankymonky: hello fellow MD monkey. | 04:40 |
| Crankymonky | SpeakerMania, You mean the hdd? | 04:40 |
| Crankymonky | dancingmonkey, Whereabouts are you? | 04:41 |
| Crankymonky | And I'm not a monkey, I'm a monky | 04:41 |
| dancingmonkey | B-less. :/ | 04:41 |
| === alch3mist is now known as Mr | ||
| f0rtune | is there a quick way to change all the folder permissions in the home directory? | 04:41 |
| === Mr is now known as MrYou | ||
| Crankymonky | B-less? As in...Not Baltimore? | 04:41 |
| beterraba | hello? could anyone help me? is a quick question.. | 04:41 |
| beterraba | after i edit /etc/exports, what do i need to mount the server on nfs client? (both are pinging each other) | 04:41 |
| SpeakerMania | Crankymonkey, Nope. :) I'm trying to help Johno here extend his internet (dialup) to his ubuntu machine via a windows machine. | 04:41 |
| dancingmonkey | No, that's right... | 04:41 |
| Crankymonky | Umm, Washington then? | 04:42 |
| mediabuntu | can we ask gusty questions here ? | 04:42 |
| === Q_Continuum is now known as Q_Contoxicated | ||
| dancingmonkey | baltimore... | 04:42 |
| akk | anyway, Johno, if you can find (with google or whatever) the kppp-blahblah.deb file and download it, then you could boot into gutsy, mount the windows partition and install it with dpkg -i kppp-blahblah.deb | 04:42 |
| dancingmonkey | mediabuntu: GO! | 04:42 |
| Crankymonky | I'm in Washington | 04:42 |
| beterraba | friends? | 04:42 |
| AlexMax | Hi there? Where can I find xterm's default resources? | 04:42 |
| dancingmonkey | Ah, so you're one of the guys getting shot at. | 04:42 |
| Johno | its 2 separate machines | 04:42 |
| SpeakerMania | Except, as we all know, Windows isn't as nice to Linux as Linux is to Windows. | 04:42 |
| beterraba | hello? =( | 04:42 |
| MrYou | any guides and how tos for aiff support for ubuntu? | 04:43 |
| Johno | well I just need samba now... | 04:43 |
| Crankymonky | Anyone know a general safe temp for a P4 laptop cpu to run at? | 04:43 |
| beterraba | after i edit /etc/exports, what do i need to mount the server on nfs client? (both are pinging each other) | 04:43 |
| beterraba | can someone read me? | 04:43 |
| dancingmonkey | Crankymonky: What is it running now? | 04:43 |
| Moose | Well, Windows definitely fails at a whole lot of things, except the whole "I'm the target platform for the latest games" :) | 04:43 |
| dancingmonkey | 50c is a bit high | 04:43 |
| SpeakerMania | Moose, lol | 04:43 |
| Crankymonky | dancingmonkey, 54 at the moment, I've seen it peek at 60 | 04:43 |
| Moose | But I'm not switching back, I'll dual boot but that's it :P | 04:43 |
| beterraba | ok ): | 04:44 |
| MrYou | dancingmonkey : how about pentium D ? i'm running about 56c up to 64c | 04:44 |
| nickname632 | hello all. | 04:44 |
| SpeakerMania | Moose, same here. I actually have separate machines running each of them. Guess which one turns on more often. :P | 04:44 |
| mediabuntu | dancin i have very bad video. look here http://img527.imageshack.us/img527/2816/98356987dn8.png. mythtv has the same issue. i have installed every codec i could find. | 04:44 |
| Fellow | I have a mac mini with an intel processor, and I was thinking of dual booting w/ 7/10. | 04:44 |
| Crankymonky | dancingmonkey, My laptop (dell inspiron 5150) (about 4 years old, I just bought used) runs on avg 55 | 04:44 |
| Fellow | I assumed that I should use the AMD/intel build, but it didn't work | 04:45 |
| Crankymonky | but it is known to have overheating issues | 04:45 |
| Crankymonky | that kill the mobo | 04:45 |
| SpeakerMania | Anyone know how I can transfer 3.5 gigs of music from a windows machine to my Ubuntu machine? | 04:45 |
| MrYou | dancingmonkey : do you know a tool in ubuntu to change freq for pentium D? | 04:45 |
| Crankymonky | the previous user didn't have any over 4 year | 04:45 |
| dancingmonkey | MrYou: I've never seen temps over 50c. But I don't deal with intel often. Seems like one might need to clean the heatsinks... | 04:45 |
| Crankymonky | MrYou, go to your bios | 04:45 |
| Moose | Meh, I figure if "NTLDR" didn't want to load for me, I'd install Linux ( had a head crash on my hard drive I guess and it corrupted everything :P ) | 04:45 |
| beterraba | after i edit /etc/exports, what do i need to mount the server on nfs client? (both are pinging each other) | 04:45 |
| Moose | But yes, 29 hours of trying to get Windows to work. | 04:45 |
| Moose | 5 minutes to get Ubuntu up and running :P | 04:45 |
| nickname632 | :P | 04:45 |
| dancingmonkey | MrYou: Do it in the BIOS (f10 usally) when the PC is booting | 04:46 |
| Johno | Wow I think the computer I'm runing linux on doesn'have an ethernet port | 04:46 |
| f0rtune | how do i add users to the root group? | 04:46 |
| Crankymonky | dancing, I'm going to go underclock my 3.07 ghz processor to...1.60 ghz | 04:46 |
| Crankymonky | I think that should lower temp a bit | 04:46 |
| Crankymonky | :P | 04:46 |
| dancingmonkey | Save battery too :/ | 04:46 |
| Moose | Why is it that apps in Linux seem to respond a whole hell of a lot quicker than when running in Windows? | 04:46 |
| SpeakerMania | Moose, agreed. Those times are about right, too. I like Linux because all the drivers are free and are installed automatically, not "Generic Driver #4802" in Windows. | 04:46 |
| SpeakerMania | Moose, I wonder... lol | 04:46 |
| eric | hi im having problem with booting up normally after installing some programmes | 04:47 |
| Moose | SpeakerMania: Well, Ubuntu didn't find my keyboard or mouse driver. | 04:47 |
| Gunn | hey I downloaded a new .ttf (font) for wine, how do I install it | 04:47 |
| f0rtune | how do i add users to the root group? | 04:47 |
| dancingmonkey | Moose: Because you can't run all your viruses and outdated virus scanner and spyware at once in linux... | 04:47 |
| SpeakerMania | Moose, but still. :P | 04:47 |
| Moose | dancingmonkey: I've never had an anti-virus app. | 04:47 |
| SpeakerMania | Anyone know how I can transfer 3.5 gigs of music from a windows machine to my Ubuntu machine? | 04:47 |
| Moose | I'm just an intelligent user, and don't screw myself over with virus laden porn :P | 04:48 |
| dancingmonkey | Gunn: Theres a fonts folder in the windows directory ~.wine/ | 04:48 |
| dancingmonkey | goto ~.wine/ | 04:48 |
| rockets | Is anybody having firefox stability issues in Gutsy? Mine seems to hang all the time, but opera and other browsers are fine. | 04:48 |
| rockets | i've disabled all my addons | 04:48 |
| akk | SpeakerMania: cp -r | 04:48 |
| SpeakerMania | akk, say what? What do I do? | 04:48 |
| MrYou | <rockets> : mine works perfectly fine | 04:48 |
| Gunn | will this work | 04:48 |
| Gunn | cp ~/Desktop/tahoma.ttf ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/fonts | 04:48 |
| dancingmonkey | SpeakerMania: 3.5" Floppy Disk. | 04:48 |
| rockets | MrYou, thanks for your help . . . | 04:48 |
| f0rtune | how do i add users to the root group? | 04:48 |
| akk | SpeakerMania: well, first, do they share a disk? are you trying to do it over the network? Can you use an external usb drive? | 04:49 |
| dancingmonkey | Gunn: Most likely. | 04:49 |
| MrYou | <rockets> : have you tried reinstalling it? | 04:49 |
| Gunn | ok thanks | 04:49 |
| Moose | One other thing that I like about Linux, the system log :P | 04:49 |
| Crankymonky | f0rtune, do you want them to be root, or be able to use sudo? | 04:49 |
| rockets | MrYou, yes | 04:49 |
| eric | hi im having problem with booting up normally after installing some programmes anyone? | 04:49 |
| rockets | with a purge | 04:49 |
| SpeakerMania | dancingmonkey, I never thought of that! What, that will be about 3.5 million of them? lol | 04:49 |
| dancingmonkey | Gunn: Only photoshop saw them, but I only used photoshop... | 04:49 |
| f0rtune | CrankyMonkey, i want them to be on the root group, so they can look into certain folders | 04:49 |
| rockets | ive been using opera because its too annoying | 04:49 |
| Moose | Windows has something similar called an event log.. but it's more like "ERROR 124214 has occured, critical system failure unrecoverable" | 04:49 |
| SpeakerMania | akk, they share a network, both run through my router. | 04:49 |
| astro76 | f0rtune, add them to the admin group and they will be able to sudo | 04:49 |
| Gunn | im doing it for STEAM | 04:50 |
| Gunn | so I can run TF2 | 04:50 |
| Gunn | I hear you gotta have that font | 04:50 |
| akk | SpeakerMania: Does the windows machine have an ssh/scp client? You could set up sshd on the linux end then copy them that way | 04:50 |
| Moose | Heh, TF2 can work on Linux? :o | 04:50 |
| f0rtune | astro76, thats not my problem lol | 04:50 |
| eric | hi im having problem with booting up normally after installing some programmes anyone? | 04:50 |
| oneadvent | you need it in your wine instalation not in linux part | 04:50 |
| astro76 | f0rtune, I don't see why not, with sudo access they can do anything root can do. if not what exactly is your question? | 04:50 |
| akk | SpeakerMania: With linux I'd do scp -r MusicDir remotemachine:destdir | 04:50 |
| dancingmonkey | SpeakerMania: Try using a FTP software on your windows system, and wget them in ubuntu. filezilla.sf.net has a ftp server I beleave. warftpd is another. | 04:51 |
| vmlinuz` | whats wrong with google.com | 04:51 |
| akk | SpeakerMania: but that does assume you've set up ssh/scp on the windows machine | 04:51 |
| dancingmonkey | I used SD card myself. | 04:51 |
| Crankymonky | astro76, That's not what he wanted | 04:51 |
| Crankymonky | f0rtune, I'm pm'ing you how | 04:51 |
| f0rtune | astro76, how do i add users to the root group? (what i said before) | 04:51 |
| astro76 | f0rtune, there is no root group | 04:51 |
| astro76 | f0rtune, it's admin | 04:51 |
| oneadvent | admin | 04:51 |
| dancingmonkey | f0rtune: You add to group 'wheel' | 04:51 |
| astro76 | !root | f0rtune | 04:51 |
| ubotu | f0rtune: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 04:51 |
| rockets | :-* | 04:52 |
| rockets | oops lol | 04:52 |
| SpeakerMania | akk, dancingmonkey: wow, slow down. I have my web server from site5 I can upload them all to, but that would take a long time. | 04:52 |
| Moose | Anyone know of a good tutorial for securing your system? Targeted towards new Linux users possibly? | 04:52 |
| f0rtune | lol.. | 04:52 |
| Fellow | I have an intel mac w/ leopard, and want to dual boot w/ gutsy. I tried the AMD/Intel version, but I was told my comp didn't support long mode. Is the standard pc build going to work? | 04:52 |
| SpeakerMania | akk, dancingmonkey: I have an FTP client on my Windows machine... | 04:52 |
| bruenig | !iptables | 04:52 |
| ubotu | Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE). | 04:52 |
| Moose | Thanks. | 04:52 |
| akk | SpeakerMania: You can set up an ftp server on ubuntu, but it might be a few steps ... last time I tried it it was significantly trickier than setting up sshd | 04:52 |
| Crankymonky | f0rtune, Did you get my PM? | 04:53 |
| akk | SpeakerMania: setting up sshd is just aptitude install openssh-server | 04:53 |
| SpeakerMania | akk, then what on Windows? | 04:53 |
| dancingmonkey | SpeakerMania: No, install a FTP server on your local system, then connect over the network, if you have a router to your ubuntu system, if it's the SAME system, use a second HDD, if you have no other HDD, burn a DVD, if no DVD burner, CD-R, I used a thumb drive... | 04:53 |
| godzirra | Heya folks. Anyone know why on 7.10 It doesn't detect a soundcard anymore? It worked until I reinstalled Gutsy... | 04:53 |
| Crankymonky | f0rtune, Hello? | 04:53 |
| akk | SpeakerMania: any ssh client that supports scp. I think putty can, certainly cygwin can, but there are a bunch of others, I think (google windows ssh scp, maybe?) | 04:54 |
| SpeakerMania | dancingmonkey, okay... how do I set up an FTP server? | 04:54 |
| BaD-Laptop | !sound > godzirra | 04:54 |

| f0rtune | Crankymonky, i pm'ed u back | 04:54 |
| SpeakerMania | akk, it sounds like ftp is easier? or is ssh? | 04:54 |
| Crankymonky | f0rtune, didn't get it... | 04:54 |
| akk | SpeakerMania: I find ssh easier personally (and it's less a security hole), but either way is okay | 04:54 |
| adorablepuppy | Anybody know why my Templates wouldn't be working? | 04:54 |

| SpeakerMania | akk, I have hyperterminal on Windows, it was already there... | 04:55 |
| SpeakerMania | akk, thanks for your help, bye | 04:55 |
| Moose | So how do I get Firestarter? It's telling me to get it from the universe repository, how exactly do I do that? :P | 04:55 |

| Radio1 | Either ine works. | 04:57 |
| BaD-Laptop | warftpd? | 04:57 |
| dancingmonkey | yes. | 04:57 |
| BaD-Laptop | eh | 04:57 |
| SpeakerMania | dancingmonkey, OH. So the FTP server goes to windows? then I connect to it form Linux? | 04:57 |
| BaD-Laptop | heh | 04:57 |
| SpeakerMania | from | 04:58 |
| dancingmonkey | SpeakerMania: Yes. | 04:58 |
| SpeakerMania | dancingmonkey, ah. okay, hold on then... | 04:58 |
| BaD-Laptop | good software | 04:58 |
| godzirra | BaD-Laptop: it doesnt detect my card when I do this: cat /proc/asound/card0/codec#* | grep Codec | 04:58 |
| dancingmonkey | then: wget mywindows.box.sk/mp3s | 04:58 |
| godzirra | BaD-Laptop: and I get this when I try and run alsamixer: alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device | 04:58 |
| BaD-Laptop | godzirra: what kind of system are you on? | 04:58 |
| Exedor | my gnome=power-preferences are missing most options - anyone have any idea - fresh install of gutsy | 04:58 |
| godzirra | I'm on a dv6500t HP laptop. But this is the same install I ran a week ago, from the same disk, and it worked fine then.. I even used the same alsa files (I have my home directory on a seperate partition and the directories were stored there) | 04:59 |
| administrador | Hola | 05:00 |
| XsteelWolf | How do i check what kind of webserver is a host using? | 05:00 |
| BaD-Laptop | godzirra: hold one... | 05:00 |
| xIke_ | anyone know the name of the app that lets you click in a small window and see what mouse button was pressed? | 05:00 |
| godzirra | BaD-Laptop: Sure thing. I'm using this guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto | 05:02 |
| Gunn | do windows games look bad using WINE, considering it only uses a pixel shader of like 1.x ? | 05:02 |
| godzirra | Gunn: depends on the game. | 05:03 |
| Gunn | newer games probably look not so great then ? | 05:03 |
| Evanlec | Gunn, i have not heard anything of the sort | 05:04 |
| SpeakerMania | dancingmonkey, now what? The server is running | 05:04 |
| BaD-Laptop | godzirra: did you try accessing 'alsamixer' from the command line? | 05:04 |
| Evanlec | Gunn, and considering i got ET: Quake Wars running on wine...i'd say no | 05:04 |
| godzirra | BaD-Laptop: yeah. Thats what gave me the error I pasted above. | 05:04 |
| godzirra | BaD-Laptop: 00:01 < godzirra> BaD-Laptop: and I get this when I try and run alsamixer: alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device | 05:04 |
| BaD-Laptop | godzirra: i saw it | 05:04 |
| godzirra | k, sorry. :) | 05:04 |
| Gunn | I am loading Team Fortress 2 now | 05:05 |
| turtle_ninja | hi guys, I'm quite new to linux (ubuntu), I've downloaded few plugins for gedit, but I do not know where to install it, how can I see where gedit is located on the system? | 05:05 |
| Gunn | hopin it looks playable | 05:05 |
| Evanlec | Gunn, thru steam? | 05:05 |
| BaD-Laptop | godzirra: hmm, try 'lspci | grep -i audio' | 05:05 |
| Gunn | yeah | 05:05 |
| turtle_ninja | I tried "whereis gedit" but it's telling me only where gedit.bin is :'( | 05:05 |
| turtle_ninja | thanks in advance :) | 05:05 |
| SteamMachine | Hi all | 05:05 |
| Evanlec | Gunn, so u got steam / cs workin? | 05:05 |
| Gunn | well I got STEAM working, didnt download cs yet | 05:05 |
| Gunn | just STEAM | 05:05 |
| Evanlec | Gunn, k | 05:06 |
| Gunn | and TF2 is downloading via steam right now | 05:06 |
| godzirra | 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 03) | 05:06 |
| Crankymonky | Gunn, I know CS1.6 is easy to get working | 05:06 |
| Gunn | doesnt surprise me, lol | 05:06 |
| Crankymonky | not sure about css | 05:06 |
| Evanlec | godzirra, run lsmod u should have one called snd_hda_intel | 05:07 |
| BaD-Laptop | godzirra: oohh, i don't know much about the ICH8. i have a ICH6m in my laptop. | 05:07 |
| XsteelWolf | How do i check what kind of webserver is a host using? | 05:07 |
| Gunn | I've gotten most everything I need from windows working on Unbuntu, if I can get STEAM games working, and looking playable then I'll be removing windows | 05:07 |
| Gunn | so this is the test **Crosses fingers** | 05:07 |
| godzirra | Evanlec: nope. | 05:07 |
| godzirra | I alsa get this when I try sudo modprobe snd_hda_intel: FATAL: Error inserting snd_hda_intel (/lib/modules/2.6.22-14-generic/ubuntu/media/snd-hda-intel/snd-hda-intel.ko): Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg) | 05:07 |

| nny | g nickserv identify service | 05:08 |
| SUKER | I m istalling UBUNTU 7.10-desktop-i386 now :) | 05:09 |

| Djpenguin | Im having trouble booting off the powerpc gutsy release LiveCD. Im on a g4.... Has anyone else had this problem? | 05:10 |
| IdleOne | Djpenguin: insert the cd reboot and hold down the letter C | 05:10 |
| SpeakerMania | dancingmonkey, what is the host for the server? | 05:11 |
| alebak | Hi, I have a problem with ubuntu server 7.10, I can't install... | 05:11 |
| alebak | My machine is stop when is downloading libc6-udeb | 05:12 |
| SUKER | you can't install ? no details ? | 05:12 |
| zetheroo | openoffice is not working in Gutsy... | 05:12 |
| Djpenguin | IdleOne: I have booted from CD's before, but this time, i get that white screen while booting off "live", and when i tried "live video=ofonly" it still froze up on that white loading screen | 05:12 |
| MotorCityMadMan_ | hello people, what commands do i use to id the hardware on this michine ? (like Motherboard) | 05:12 |
| Gunn | how can I install apache, and mysql on unbuntu 7.10 desktop ? | 05:13 |
| vook | does anyone know of a lightweight open source media player that, when given an http link with http-authentication, will stop and ask the user for a username and password (and remember that auth info for the rest of a playlist). Winamp and Windows Media do this, but I have yet to find a player for linux that does (and is lightweight, like beep or xmms). | 05:13 |
| whiteygford | hey all, I have a printer issue, I can print from everything except firefox | 05:13 |
| whiteygford | any ideas? | 05:13 |
| shekhar | hello can someone tell me why my display is rendering so slowly? i just turned off the proprietary ATI driver on my thinkpad T43 and it seems like the ubuntu driver is MUCH slower than it used to be | 05:13 |
| IdleOne | Djpenguin: take a look at this link might help https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PowerPCFAQ sorry I cant help more | 05:14 |
| alebak | What happened with ubuntu server 7.10, I can't install | 05:14 |
| bulmer | look for how firefox sends printing command | 05:14 |
| TheCougar | whats a good hard drive dianostics software in the ubuntu package manager? | 05:14 |
| alebak | error in libc6-udeb | 05:14 |
| vook | shekhar: why'd you turn off the ATI driver? | 05:14 |
| Djpenguin | IdleOne: Okay, thanks! | 05:14 |
| MotorCityMadMan_ | hello people, what commands do i use to id the hardware on this michine ? (like Motherboard) | 05:14 |
| zetheroo | when I go to Format > Page in OpenOffice Writer, the program just crashes...... why? | 05:14 |
| shekhar | vook: because it interrupts suspend to RAM in gutsy | 05:14 |
| whiteygford | it says its going to my printer by default, tried every setting I could think of | 05:14 |
| linxuz3r | hey | 05:15 |
| Gunn | how can I install apache, and mysql on unbuntu 7.10 desktop ? | 05:15 |
| linxuz3r | so any one liking the gOS? | 05:15 |
| TheCougar | Gunn: yes | 05:15 |
| vook | shekhar: interesting- really interesting, because I have been looking for a laptop for my sister that would work well with Linux, and I've narrowed down to the T42 T42/p, or T43. | 05:16 |
| bulmer | whiteygford-> look in about:config and find print | 05:16 |
| Gunn | i tried sudo apt-get install LAMP but no luck | 05:16 |
| whiteygford | thanks | 05:16 |
| zetheroo | anyone? | 05:16 |
| shekhar | vook: it works fine with linux, just gutsy doesn't play well with the proprietary ATI driver | 05:17 |
| linxuz3r | http://www.thinkgos.com/products.html nice | 05:17 |
| vook | shekhar: doesn't help you any - but I'm curious as to what your experience has been with the T43 and ubuntu, that's what I plan to install for her (I use debian). | 05:17 |
| linxuz3r | they got via support | 05:17 |
| vook | shekhar: hm | 05:17 |
| vook | shekhar: anyway, do you have drm and glx working with the generic driver? It reasons that things would be slower without the proprietary ATI driver. | 05:18 |
| vincent_ | xdpyinfo | grep resolution reports 99x98 dpi but xrdb -query | grep dpi I get 96. which one is true? | 05:18 |
| vook | shekhar: glxinfo will tell you. | 05:18 |
| TheCougar | is there any hard drive diagnostics software in the package manager? | 05:18 |
| shekhar | vook: yes i think so | 05:19 |
| shekhar | vook: how do i get rid of these and get my graphics back up to speed? | 05:19 |
| xIke_ | anyone know how to get other mouse buttons working? 2 of mine aren't being detected in xev | 05:20 |
| vook | shekhar: you've got to use the ATI driver if you want it to be back up to speed. Rather than look at how to make the generic driver fast, I'd advise to instead study how to make that ATI driver play more nicely with your system. That's the only way it's going to perform well. | 05:20 |
| Evanlec | TheCougar, there's partition manager (gparted), testdisk, and fsck | 05:20 |
| shekhar | vook: there's a bug in the restricted driver which prevents suspend, i can't do much about it | 05:21 |
| shekhar | vook: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-restricted-modules-2.6.22/+bug/121653 | 05:21 |
| Evanlec | shekhar, u tried the driver from ati's site? or the new open-source driver? | 05:22 |
| TheCougar | Evanlec: does any of them do diagnostics to see if the drive is bad? | 05:22 |
| whiteygford | ok, so I tell firefox to print on letter size paper and my printes asks for legal, any ideas? | 05:22 |
| shekhar | Evanlec: no, would rather not muck around with my video driver if i can avoid it | 05:22 |
| Gate | anyone know where there is an online list of the packages contained in the 7.10 install disk? | 05:22 |
| Evanlec | TheCougar, testdisk and fsck will, testdisk is mostly used for data recovery from bad drives, fsck is like windows' chkdsk utility | 05:23 |
| shekhar | Evanlec: i'm just using what's in the gutsy repositories | 05:23 |
| Evanlec | yea | 05:23 |
| IdleOne | Gate: packages.ubuntu.com | 05:23 |
| Evanlec | well thats the easiest shekhar, but like u said there's that bug | 05:23 |
| shekhar | vook Evanlec: any idea how i can get the opensource driver back up to speed? it was working fine before i turned the restricted driver on and off | 05:23 |
| vincent_ | anyone? xdpyinfo | grep resolution reports 99x98 dpi but xrdb -query | grep dpi I get 96. which one is true? | 05:24 |
| Evanlec | shekhar, acutally i dont, havent used ati in quite a while | 05:24 |
| Gate | thanks IdleOne | 05:24 |
| IdleOne | Gate: np | 05:24 |
| * shekhar sighs... this is like being cast back to hoary hedgehog days when i couldn't suspend my laptop | 05:25 | |
| user_ | anyone know a program for ubuntu that is like abby fine reader on windows platform? | 05:26 |
| altf2o | anyone familiar w/ Compiz(Emerald)\Xgl? I got it working ok, i'm just having trouble using any features other than wobbly windows? Cube, multiple desktops etc... i can't seem to get to work. | 05:26 |
| Evanlec | !ccsm | altf2o | 05:26 |
| rockets | man im just going to have to use flock. i cant get firefox stale | 05:26 |
| ubotu | altf2o: To enable advanced customization of desktop effects in Ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy), install 'compizconfig-settings-manager'. A new option will appear in your appearance properties - See also !compiz - Help in #compiz-fusion | 05:26 |
| rockets | stable* | 05:26 |
| altf2o | this is Feisty on @ MBP Laptop. | 05:26 |
| vook | shekhar: There has to be a way to deal with that bug (although it may be annoying). What I'd probably do (but I'm weird this way), would be to boot into init 2 and then suspend from console. Upon awakening the system, I'd then fire X back up (only takes a few seconds). You will always get top performance from the ATI driver, sad but true. The open source drivers are great, but usually (nearly always) lack the ability to tap into the ch | 05:26 |
| Exedor | i cant control my screen brightness in gutsy and power options and screensaver options dont show any usefull settings :( | 05:27 |
| altf2o | cool, thx. | 05:27 |
| D600-ubuntu | screen brightness have you tried in a virtual terminal | 05:27 |
| shekhar | vook: i think i would rather just roll back to feisty | 05:27 |
| D600-ubuntu | then drop back into gnome | 05:27 |
| shekhar | they should have dealt with this before releasing gutsy | 05:28 |
| PoofDaddy | Every now and then when I leave the computer, it automatically logs out. Why does this happen? | 05:28 |
| Exedor | d600 im a noob dude lol | 05:29 |

| zobf | Oh sorry, I thought someone said something funny. | 05:29 |
| varun0 | when I open a page in firefox with flash on it, my whole screen turns grey and firefox freezes. Anyone know why? | 05:30 |
| Exedor | im not afraid of the terminal im just next to clueless when i get there | 05:30 |
| D600-ubuntu | Exedor ctrl-alt-F1 then try to change the brightness and then ctrl-alt-F7 to go back to the GUI | 05:30 |
| D600-ubuntu | are you using a notebook | 05:30 |
| D600-ubuntu | or desktop | 05:30 |

| D600-ubuntu | ah i see FN up and down | 05:31 |
| D600-ubuntu | did you get your wireless working too | 05:31 |

| ajcates_ | Exedor if you use nividia you can set brightness in the nvidia control panel | 05:36 |
| Exedor | ati :( | 05:36 |
| vook | Exedor: is this a desktop system? | 05:37 |
| ajcates_ | I don't know check the ati control panel | 05:37 |
| Exedor | notebook | 05:37 |
| Exedor | dell inspiron 1501 | 05:37 |
| wckdkl0wn | i get the same problem when i try to update also | 05:37 |
| vook | Exedor: what about lowering the LCD brightness via your notebooks built in dimmer tool? | 05:37 |
| Exedor | the fn+up and down arrows? | 05:38 |
| Exedor | they dont do anything | 05:38 |
| Exedor | but they work fine in every other os | 05:38 |
| vook | Exedor: do you have a key that looks like a little sunlight (with an up or down arrow?) | 05:38 |
| Exedor | yup yup | 05:38 |
| vook | Exedor: is that the up and down arrows ? | 05:39 |
| Exedor | its multi boot vista xp gutsy and they work fine in vista and xp and even bartpe just not ubuntu | 05:39 |
| Exedor | yup | 05:39 |
| tehk | Anyone know where I can set the default filebrowser for gnome? | 05:39 |
| user_ | what key is the super key? in my keyboard | 05:39 |
| vook | Exedor: ah, ok. weird. Dell must control that via software. hmm. | 05:39 |

| user_ | yeah | 05:40 |
| Pyrobyte | thats your super key | 05:40 |
| user_ | thanks | 05:40 |
| varun0 | when I open a page in firefox with flash on it, my whole screen turns grey and firefox freezes. Anyone know why? | 05:40 |
| Pyrobyte | np | 05:40 |
| ajcates_ | do they sell keyboard with a linux key?? | 05:40 |
| ajcates_ | becuase i don't like looking at the windows logo every day | 05:41 |
| Tarkus | anyone know if there is a linux software for creating drum tablature and transcriptions? (if not i am seriously considering creating my own program) | 05:41 |
| Exedor | vook hey other ones work though like sound and stuff and from reading posts the brightness ones worked for people in feisty and they also cant use them in gutsy | 05:41 |
| Exedor | hey = the | 05:41 |
| Pyrobyte | ajcates: not that i know of i supppose you would print a little label out and stick it on | 05:41 |
| Pyrobyte | s/would/could | 05:41 |
| Exedor | but no matter where i look theres no option anywhere in admin or prefs for screen brightness | 05:42 |
| ajcates_ | any body in here have experince with networking a mac and ubuntu?? | 05:42 |
| Exedor | people were saying they got around it by going to prefs>power management and setting the brightness there but when i got there i only have a very few options listed | 05:43 |
| Exedor | none of which related to screen brightness | 05:43 |
| vook | Exedor: I probably should get out of here - I'm of the debian breed. Maybe a package from the default feisty install is no longer installed in the gutsy? I have no idea... (aptitude search acpi buttons) ??. good luck | 05:44 |
| Exedor | ahh k well thanks though :) | 05:44 |
| Gnea | i'm trying to install ushare 1.0 in feisty and it wants libc6 2.6 but 2.5 is the top of it (has been this way long since before gutsy came out) and it wants libupnp2 - the repo doesn't have these, so has anyone gotten ushare to work in ubuntu at all? | 05:46 |
| whiteygford | ok, my basic problem, I tell firefox to print Letter size paper, it is even set to do that by default, but it always tries to print on legal paper, how the hell do I fix it? | 05:46 |
| Gnea | whiteygford: check your cups settings | 05:46 |
| Danaman5 | This is going to sound stupid, but I can't rename any documents | 05:47 |
| whiteygford | how do I do that? | 05:47 |
| Gnea | !cups | 05:47 |
| ubotu | Printing in Ubuntu is done with cups. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Printers - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters - http://linuxprinting.org - Printer sharing: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetworkPrintingFromWindows | 05:47 |
| Pyrobyte | dana_bad: do you not know how or isn't it working? | 05:47 |
| Pyrobyte | damn autocomplete | 05:47 |
| Pyrobyte | that was meant for Danaman5 | 05:47 |
| riotkittie | yay. always nice to see somebody else fail at autocomplete | 05:48 |
| Gnea | whiteygford: also open this in firefox: http://localhost:631/admin | 05:48 |
| Danaman5 | Pyrobyte: I know how, but I click rename, and it won't let me change the name | 05:48 |
| whiteygford | gnea: huh? what does !cups mean? | 05:48 |
| Gnea | whiteygford: you can modify printer settings there and set it from legal to letter | 05:48 |
| Pyrobyte | hmm, you you have write access? | 05:48 |
| Gnea | !cups setup > whiteygford | 05:48 |
| Danaman5 | I should, I created the file | 05:48 |

| ubotu | pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic) | 05:49 |
| Gnea | !ushare | 05:49 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about ushare - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 05:49 |
| whiteygford | gotcha | 05:49 |
| Gnea | see? | 05:49 |
| Gnea | :) | 05:49 |

| riotkittie | kameron: cp /etc/bash.bashrc ~ | 05:50 |
| Danaman5 | Pyrobyte: I can't even delete the old name to write in the new one. It looks like I should be able to, but I press backspace and it doesn't delete any letters | 05:50 |
| kameron | riotkittie, not what i'm looking for | 05:50 |
| Pyrobyte | oh ok | 05:50 |
| Pyrobyte | hmm sorry i don't know what would cause that. | 05:50 |

| ajcates_ | $ man mv | 05:52 |

| Danaman5 | thanks all | 05:52 |
| ajcates_ | yea riokittie is right | 05:52 |
| kameron | whee, thanks riotkittie | 05:52 |
| ajcates_ | funny thing is in linux you don't rename files you just move them to a new name | 05:52 |
| user_ | where can i find some nice wallpapers? | 05:52 |

| riotkittie | lol. that *is* ghetto | 05:56 |
| ajcates_ | yes I know but im haveing a hard time getting them to work | 05:56 |
| Danaman5 | hmm, moving files through the terminal works fine, but moving them through the gui does not | 05:56 |
| Danaman5 | very odd | 05:56 |
| ajcates_ | I mainly use my desktop as a media center/torrent box but my mac needs some files off my windows comp | 05:56 |
| gogeta | ajcates_ftp is always a quick and dirty way | 05:57 |

| risc_ | hi all | 05:59 |
| Futsuriai | ajcates_, ah | 05:59 |
| mm_202 | I thought it may be Flash related so I installed FlashBlock and still no luck. | 06:00 |
| riotkittie | ah i've got the same issue, albeit under GNOME. firefox hasnt played nice with me since tribe 5 | 06:00 |
| mm_202 | hmm, so what do you do? just deal with it? | 06:01 |

| Fyda | Gunn: Run "xchat"? | 06:12 |
| Inuyasha32246 | poof yt | 06:12 |
| Gunn | ah ok | 06:12 |
| Gunn | also I rebooted and the "Disk" icon on my desktop isnt there anymore | 06:13 |
| Fyda | Gunn: Or you could use Alt+F2 for the "Run..." dialog, if that works better? | 06:13 |
| Gunn | how do I get that back up | 06:13 |
| Evanlec | Gunn, i woud do 'xchat &' so u can get ur terminal back | 06:13 |
| Inuyasha32246 | the thing is if you have it set to suspend after a certain amt. of time | 06:13 |
| Inuyasha32246 | you will have to log back in | 06:13 |
| Inuyasha32246 | as a security measure i guess | 06:13 |
| dyna_ | gdgd | 06:13 |
| Gunn | how do I display my "Disk" icon on the desktop, after a reboot its not there | 06:13 |
| Inuyasha32246 | so whats the news with 8.04? | 06:13 |

| Pyrobyte | Gunn: mount the disk | 06:14 |
| Inuyasha32246 | i hear they are changing the comp manager | 06:14 |
| Gunn | how do I go about doing that then | 06:14 |
| Evanlec | Gunn, go to places > my computer > then find the device on the left side panel, double click and it should mount | 06:14 |
| EMO | Does anybody know how to compile from source after installing a new kernel | 06:14 |

| Evanlec | EMO, okay? what goes wrong? | 06:19 |
| Inuyasha32246 | too many people | 06:19 |
| Gunn | the only one I can mount is 128GB Volume and that has all my vista files as well | 06:19 |
| Evanlec | Gunn, filesystem = your linux files the 128gb volume = your windows partition | 06:19 |
| Inuyasha32246 | this is my first time using irc | 06:19 |
| Inuyasha32246 | funny eh? | 06:19 |

| Evanlec | Gunn, your linux files are automounted at bootup | 06:19 |
| mitch__ | Hey all, Banshee keeps hanging when I try to play an audio file, anyone had this problem before? | 06:20 |
| Evanlec | Gunn, its already mounted and you cannot unmount that, thats what they call your root partition | 06:20 |
| Gunn | but I want to put it on my desktop | 06:20 |
| Inuyasha32246 | sudo f mount udev | 06:20 |
| Inuyasha32246 | ... | 06:20 |
| EMO | It won't compile it I get errors, I think it has something to do with it wanting to go to the linux headers of my old kernel | 06:20 |
| Inuyasha32246 | something or other | 06:20 |
| Evanlec | Gunn, just drag it over to ur desktop | 06:20 |

| Evanlec | just add in there any domain u want to block | 06:23 |
| PoofDaddy | Inuyasha32246: you think it may be a power management problem? How do I find out if the settings are so? | 06:23 |
| EMO | i look for it thanks | 06:23 |
| Inuyasha32246 | content it is | 06:23 |
| Inuyasha32246 | just ad the site to one or all of your blocked lists | 06:24 |
| Inuyasha32246 | and it will have a very hard time coming up | 06:24 |
| user_ | can you show an example? | 06:24 |

| Inuyasha32246 | system>preferances>power management | 06:25 |

| mitch__ | kk | 06:27 |
| dzcom | I can't get the Firefox profile manager to work in Gutsy. I type $ firefox -ProfileManager and it just launches a new FF window in the same profile. No manager. | 06:27 |
| Inuyasha32246 | system>pref>advanced blah blah | 06:27 |
| Inuyasha32246 | yeah | 06:27 |
| Inuyasha32246 | its broken | 06:28 |

| Evanlec | user_, sorry, u want to add sites to /etc/hosts.deny | 06:28 |

| levander | Because of a bug in nvidia-glx-new, I need to downgrade to nvidia-glx. Has anyone seen instructions on how to do that in Gutsy? | 06:30 |
| Inuyasha32246 | sorry | 06:30 |
| PoofDaddy | Inuyasha32246: I don't have compiz if you're asking me. I went to system>preferances>power management, but I don't see anything that would be related to the shutdown. I have everything set to "never". | 06:30 |
| Evanlec | thank you | 06:30 |
| user_ | is restart needed? | 06:30 |
| user_ | for it to take effect | 06:30 |
| Inuyasha32246 | hrm | 06:30 |
| Inuyasha32246 | ok | 06:30 |
| Evanlec | user_, dont think so | 06:30 |
| user_ | can you give me an example on how it should look like? | 06:30 |
| Inuyasha32246 | well as much as i know, i cant get you beyond that | 06:30 |
| buzz-c1 | so does anyone know how to create the same child directory under several different parents? | 06:30 |
| Inuyasha32246 | very sorry | 06:31 |
| Inuyasha32246 | you might wanna try ubuntuforums.org | 06:31 |

| Inuyasha32246 | ill brb | 06:31 |
| Cpudan80 | buzz-c1: links | 06:31 |
| defrysk | levander, easyers way should be sudo apt-get remove nvidia-glx-new --purge && sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx | 06:31 |
| Evanlec | user_, just add a line that says: ALL: sitetoblock.com | 06:31 |
| mitch__ | Inyuasha32246, Did you say you know how to set different wallpapers for dual monitor setup, or were you saying 'Yeah' to someone else? | 06:31 |
| sjovan | hi guys, how do i isntall icon themes? i have downloaded a them and it's in ~/.icons now. what should i do next? | 06:31 |
| sjovan | sjovan@analplugg:~$ ls .icons | 06:31 |
| Inuyasha32246 | no that was to you | 06:31 |
| Cpudan80 | buzz-c1: hard links specifically, man ln | 06:31 |
| sjovan | entis_cursors_x11_others lil-polar | 06:31 |
| Inuyasha32246 | its under the advancer compizmagager thingy | 06:31 |
| buzz-c1 | hard links... | 06:31 |
| Inuyasha32246 | advanced* | 06:31 |
| mitch__ | Inyuasha32246, Alright then, ccsm is open. What next? | 06:31 |
| levander | defrysk: all i have to do is install nvidia-glx (after removing nvidia-glx-new) and X will start using nvidia-glx?? | 06:32 |
| sjovan | mitch__: why don't you go to #compiz-fusion | 06:32 |
| Cpudan80 | buzz-c1: the real directory will sit under one parent, but with the hard links you can mae it look like it sits under other dirs | 06:32 |
| sjovan | there can you finde the experts | 06:32 |
| chetnick | does anybody have a problem with vmware on Gutsy? | 06:32 |
| defrysk | levander, if not, do sudo nvidia-xconfig to resolve xorg.conf , but i do not expect this | 06:32 |
| buzz-c1 | Cpudan80: will ownership reside with each user? | 06:32 |
| Cpudan80 | buzz-c1: each user? | 06:33 |
| Cpudan80 | buzz-c1: permissions are determined by the actual thing, not the links | 06:33 |
| buzz-c1 | yeah this will be /home/user1/dir /home/user2/dir | 06:33 |
| levander | defrysk: okay, thanks, i'll try it here in a minute, it's on my other box (the one that's not working) | 06:33 |
| Nyle | ubuntu yaar kya bakwas hai | 06:33 |
| Nyle | bohot chootya distro hai | 06:34 |
| buzz-c1 | Cpudan80: so it will be owned by root | 06:34 |
| Cpudan80 | buzz-c1: not sure I follow -- if user A wants to link to a directory in user Bs dir - user B will have to up the permissions on that particular directory | 06:34 |
| Nyle | oops | 06:34 |

| sjovan | entis_cursors_x11_others lil-polar | 06:37 |
| Cpudan80 | buzz-c1: you need exec permissions on the destination dir (+ read) | 06:38 |
| dzcom | Inuyasha32246: here is the fix -- this will launch the ff profile manager in Gutsy: firefox -a asdf | 06:39 |
| Pyrobyte | sjoerd: you open up the themes manager/windows settings | 06:39 |

| ubotu | LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) | 06:44 |

| murlidhar | my exaile player plays only one track and hangs up :( | 06:50 |
| eyemean | this might be a silly wuestion, but does the average ubuntu home user really need a firewall? | 06:50 |
| stas123 | I am just installing ubuntu for the first time.. I have an existing ntfs partition in the beginning of my hard drive, which I'd like to preserve intact. I assume I need a partition for Ubuntu + a swap partition? If so, what type should I choose for the main partition -- is there a big difference between ext3, reiserfs, xfs, etc? And is 1024MB sufficient for a swap partition? | 06:51 |
| eyemean | for me its just a pain to configure torrents and stuff like that even messenger | 06:51 |
| open-gl | my cousins wanted to use my laptop so they were playing around with it and taking guess of the username and password not I cant login. | 06:51 |
| justin420 | EYEMEAN: YES | 06:51 |
| stas123 | (and also, should the main partition and swap partition both be 'primary'?) | 06:51 |
| murlidhar | how to reconfigure my exaile player | 06:51 |
| murlidhar | ? | 06:51 |
| Evanlec | eyemean, from what hear, no you dont | 06:51 |
| murlidhar | !caps | justin420 | 06:51 |
| Mystroth | nrp:thx for the web page... i was able to get it working! | 06:51 |
| ubotu | justin420: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too. | 06:51 |
| eyemean | ok im getting mixed answers here, lol | 06:51 |
| dudewithtwoheads | stas123 your swap partition should be like your RAM memory i think | 06:51 |
| MrYou | <murlidhar> dpkg-reconfigure exaile | 06:52 |
| murlidhar | MrYou: thanks | 06:52 |
| justin420 | !thanks | ubotu | 06:52 |
| ubotu | ubotu: You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-) | 06:52 |
| stas123 | dudewithtwoheads: alright. anything else I should know before I take the plunge? | 06:52 |
| MrYou | <ubotu> : do you play chess? | 06:52 |
| dudewithtwoheads | stas123 im not linux pro, but i think you should use ext3, i used it.. | 06:53 |
| Evanlec | eyemean, run this test, see if u got any holes | 06:53 |
| ajcates | Hello all! | 06:53 |
| eyemean | stas123, are u going for dual boot or just ubuntu on its own? | 06:53 |
| Evanlec | eyemean, otherwise, u odnt need a firewall | 06:53 |
| stas123 | eyemean: I'd like to to dual boot | 06:53 |
| ajcates | how do open up a dmg file in ubuntu?? | 06:53 |
| murlidhar | reconfiguring my exaile player doesn't help either | 06:53 |
| Evanlec | eyemean, https://www.grc.com/x/ne.dll?bh0bkyd2 | 06:53 |
| eyemean | evanlec what test | 06:53 |
| stas123 | eyemean: I have a working XP installed already. | 06:53 |
| eyemean | evanlec, cheers will try | 06:53 |
| ajcates | working xp is an oxymoron | 06:53 |
| mrbrown | can ourtunes be used in linux | 06:53 |
| murlidhar | still my player hangs after one song or when i click another song :( | 06:54 |
| MrYou | <murlidhar> remove the application folder then start exaile again... | 06:54 |
| MrYou | <murlidhar> usually in ~/.exaile | 06:54 |
| eyemean | stas123, yeah same setup here, winxp and ubuntu, o u know what to expect etc? | 06:54 |
| mrbrown | or what is the best way to get songs using ubuntu | 06:54 |
| stas123 | ajcates: well, temporarily functioning ;p | 06:54 |
| MrYou | doing dual boot will only waste space | 06:54 |
| dudewithtwoheads | Did someone installed Tiger OS, and have dual boot of ubuntu and win beside taht ? | 06:55 |
| Radio1 | Sheildsup is a good port sniffer. | 06:55 |
| Flannel | dudewithtwoheads: Triple booting is doable, yes. | 06:55 |
| stas123 | So, which filesystem should I choose? | 06:55 |
| eyemean | stas123, im new to ubuntu, but dual boot is the best thing i 've done, i hardly use win xp | 06:55 |
| _BlackJack_ | what's the url to fetch graphical grub configuration package? | 06:55 |
| stas123 | eyemean: :D that sounds nice | 06:55 |
| dudewithtwoheads | flannel becouse im a newbie what is the main thing i should know before instaling tiger os ? | 06:56 |
| stas123 | I'm using the liveCD right now actually, and it's /so/ nice | 06:56 |
| dudewithtwoheads | some hint, link / | 06:56 |
| stas123 | pretty fonts and everything :D | 06:56 |

| murlidhar | MrYou: done just seeing if it still hangs | 06:56 |
| MrYou | if you're on a typical pc ... dual boot is a waste of space... if you're concerned about gaming... try cedega... or wine | 06:56 |
| stas123 | MrYou: are you talking to me? | 06:57 |
| MrYou | <murlidhar> : nope... to anyone... just an opinion | 06:57 |
| stas123 | oh, ok | 06:57 |
| corinth | MrYou, there are still a few things I use Windows for | 06:57 |
| new2Ubuntu | wine doesnt work with my game I like :( | 06:57 |
| new2Ubuntu | Chessmaster 10 | 06:57 |
| stas123 | There are things other than games, unfortunately, that I'll need to keep Windows for :) | 06:57 |
| murlidhar | MrYou: it still hangs up :( | 06:57 |
| MrYou | cedega should work... mostly... but not all... | 06:57 |
| corinth | MrYou, I haven't found an alternative to Vista's Media Center that works as well or records my Satellite TV | 06:58 |
| MrYou | :D just an opinion though | 06:58 |
| Flannel | new2Ubuntu: Ubuntu has a chess game, comes preinstalled in Gutsy actually | 06:58 |
| sjovan | hey, i just downloaded a icon. *.incs its the name. how can i use that? | 06:58 |
| eyemean | stas123, ,gunn, i only use windows to maybe use webcam and things like that | 06:58 |
| corinth | MyYou, Also, the Zune's software won't run under wine, and I have trouble with it under a virtual machine | 06:58 |
| Gunn | eyemean, I've set up webcam here and it works fine | 06:59 |
| _BlackJack_ | what's the url to fetch graphical grub configuration package? | 06:59 |
| MrYou | <murlidhar> try running it in terminal and see what goes on the background or... you can remove exaile completely including the config file and reinstall again... | 06:59 |
| stas123 | so does anyone here use anything other than ext3 (and is there any reason for that?) | 06:59 |

| Inuyasha32246 | whenever i play a /mkv file in vlc | 07:01 |
| MrYou | <stas123> : fat32 i guess... it will work both in linux,mac and windows... | 07:01 |
| Inuyasha32246 | it comes out all stringy | 07:01 |
| Evanlec | inuyasha, again stop using enter as punctuation | 07:01 |
| MrYou | <stas123> : no driver software needed | 07:01 |
| Inuyasha32246 | huh | 07:01 |
| Evanlec | type your questions/responses on one line | 07:01 |
| Evanlec | not 10 | 07:01 |

| Inuyasha32246 | sorry | 07:02 |
| Evanlec | well u need to deal with it | 07:02 |
| Inuyasha32246 | no you do | 07:02 |
| Evanlec | its a channel rule | 07:02 |
| Evanlec | i can call the ops if you would like? | 07:02 |

| eyemean | evanlec, sweet, but i noticed that the website was really testing for windows, are there ones for linux | 07:04 |
| eyemean | evanlec, sorry for these silly questions, lol | 07:04 |
| Evanlec | eyemean, ports are ports, whether its linux or windows | 07:04 |
| praet0r_ | freedom of speech.... next they will be calling the spelling nazis and the punctuation and grammer gestapo in here | 07:04 |
| MrYou | Inuyasha32246 : maybe it's your habit to press carriage return everytime ... but this is an irc not a word processor | 07:04 |
| Evanlec | eyemean, in general linux machines are about 10X more secure than a typical windows machine | 07:04 |

| eyemean | cheers evanlec, u have put my mind at rest, will it be safe to use torrent aswell? or could that be a security risk for me? | 07:05 |
| praet0r_ | yes sir! | 07:05 |
| MrYou | speaking of security.... any known latest virus out on the wild yet for linux?... | 07:06 |
| Inuyasha32246 | whenever i play a /mkv file in vlc whenever i play a /mkv file in vlc | 07:06 |
| Inuyasha32246 | it is very stringy | 07:06 |
| Evanlec | eyemean, should be all set, you will want to forward some ports, but as far as i know bittorrent clients are not a security risk | 07:06 |

| TopRamen | hey guys, I've been working with sessions for a simply shopping cart, I've been storing shopping cart items like so: request.session['cart'][product_id] = 1, the product_id is, well, the id of the product, and the '1' is it's quantity within the shopping cart. If an individual adds the same product to their shopping cart, it's entry in the session dictionary is incremented like so: request.session['cart'][product_id] += 1. The question I have is that wh | 07:07 |
| TopRamen | en they remove the product (or set it's quantity to 0) in the shopping cart, I need to clear the entry from the session, I tried using del request.session['cart'][product_id] but it causes a KeyError when I try to iterate through the elements of request.session['cart'] when displaying the cart's contents. Any ideas why this is the case | 07:07 |
| eyemean | thanx you evanlec, ur replies have been very useful, much appreciated | 07:07 |
| Evanlec | MrYou, i invite you to read this: http://librenix.com/?inode=21 | 07:07 |
| _BlackJack_ | what's the url to fetch graphical grub configuration package? | 07:07 |
| Evanlec | eyemean, you too, take a look at this: http://librenix.com/?inode=21 | 07:07 |
| Evanlec | _BlackJack_, whats the package name? | 07:08 |
| TopRamen | does 'del request.session['cart'][product_id] actually remove the key/value pair from the 'cart' dictionary? | 07:08 |
| Inuyasha32246 | we're about to be switching back to the .p2p proto, i guess its harder to trace that | 07:08 |
| _BlackJack_ | Evanlec, if I knew, I wouldn't have asked | 07:08 |
| Evanlec | _BlackJack_, i did not know there was a gui for grub | 07:08 |
| _BlackJack_ | it's some GUI based grub configuration | 07:08 |
| Inuyasha32246 | BUM? | 07:08 |
| _BlackJack_ | no man.. somebody on this channel gave me a link to the forums for downloading that | 07:08 |
| _BlackJack_ | I can't seem to find it the logs though | 07:09 |
| Inuyasha32246 | no thats not grub, i can't remember | 07:09 |
| Evanlec | _BlackJack_, this page had it, but apparently no longer under development: http://grubconf.sourceforge.net/ | 07:09 |
| Evanlec | _BlackJack_, since 2005, thus i would not use thatq | 07:09 |
| praet0r_ | BUM sounds like the windows version of YUM only stinkier | 07:09 |
| Inuyasha32246 | ok well no one wants to answer my question, but i am in a giving mood so ill chill out and wait for a question I can answer | 07:10 |

| praet0r_ | user_, they do have realplayer for linux too | 07:11 |

| Evanlec | Inuyasha32246, well id say its probly a codec problem | 07:13 |
| pt | Hi, If I want to make a backup of a PS2 game from a .iso image, how would I burn it? | 07:13 |
| praet0r_ | do you have access to a windows machine or a way to get the codecs from a windows installation? cause you could try to drop that in to see if it works | 07:13 |
| murlidhar | i have to go to windows to listen to my tracks | 07:13 |
| Inuyasha32246 | I keep thinking that too | 07:13 |
| Evanlec | Inuyasha32246, can u point me quickly to an mkv file to see if i can duplicate this behavior? | 07:13 |
| Inuyasha32246 | and preator, no | 07:13 |

| user_ | no | 07:14 |
| user_ | where i can get it from? | 07:14 |
| new2Ubuntu | is there anyone who uses a nokia 6681 here and is synching there stuff to Ubuntu? | 07:15 |

| sjovan | how can you change the default icon for a program? | 07:15 |

| MrYou | is there a way for totem increase its cache size because it keeps on buffering everytime i play divx and qt movies online... and where do totem save its cached movie ? | 07:16 |
| Evanlec | sjovan, really u just right click on the shortcut and hit properties (whether its on panel or desktop) then click on the icon button and u can change it | 07:16 |
| chetnick | Right click on the icon .. and than change the icon | 07:16 |
| pt | I want to burn an iso. But for the iso to be bootable, do I burn the actual iso or the contents of the iso? | 07:16 |
| Comrade-Sergei | how do i use ubuntus apache on my web server (1&1) that i dont control? | 07:16 |
| Evanlec | MrYou, probably cache is in volatile ram or perhaps in /tmp | 07:16 |
| chetnick | Right click on the icon > properties.. and than change the icon | 07:16 |
| Futsuriai | sjovan, the only way I can think to do that everywhere the icon shows up at once is to find which image it uses and replace it with the new icon (backing up the old or something) | 07:16 |
| murlidhar | my amarok doesn't open up, listen media player hangs when i change the track., exaile media player hangs when i change a track , rhythembox hangs when i change a track and now my gimmix just doesn't open up/ | 07:16 |
| sjovan | yea, that could work | 07:16 |
| sjovan | thanx | 07:16 |
| Evanlec | pt, you write the iso as an image, you never want to just put the iso on your cd as a file | 07:17 |
| domU | hello everyone, i search for a document which explains me how i can install ubuntu into a xen environment, what i had found with google are only pages belonging to install xen in ubuntu. thanks for replying to my post. | 07:17 |
| pt | Evanlec; So when it askes if I want to burn the contents, or the file, I want to burn the contents? | 07:17 |
| Evanlec | domU, i would recommend vmware if u want to run ubuntu in a virtual environment | 07:18 |
| MrYou | <Evanlec> : tried /tmp tried /.gnome2 tried /.totem none found... i wish totem acts like any other media player where you can pause and let the movie load a while and play it later... not buffering every time.. | 07:18 |
| SIT`khoa | any reason why gutsy server install is freezing at "Gathering information for installation report" ? | 07:18 |
| Evanlec | pt, yes, right click on iso file and hit "write to disc" | 07:18 |
| SIT`khoa | not to mention its detecting my HD's as SCSI when they are ATA... maybe that has something to do with it? | 07:18 |
| Evanlec | MrYou, you're not gonna be able to find the file its buffering, if its a streaming video, you'll need another application if u want to try and save it | 07:18 |
| domU | Evanlec: i had no vmware, only xen available. | 07:19 |

| Inuyasha32246 | thats for you | 07:20 |
| artedlc | Ok thanks | 07:20 |
| Futsuriai | Not_Sure, I think you can do that by using the java command | 07:20 |
| chetnick | Does anyone have a problem with network in vmware on GUTSY? | 07:20 |
| Evanlec | pt, you want to burn the contents of the image file then, tho i have never seen that warning on ubuntu | 07:20 |

| underwatercow | why is java in the multiverse? Is there a legal reason? | 07:20 |
| Not_Sure | Futsuriai: Using java command is an option when you operate in console mode. However, I am trying to create an application launcher on gnome panel. | 07:21 |
| Futsuriai | Not_Sure, I mean, is it a gui app, or one which needs to run in terminal? | 07:21 |
| Evanlec | underwatercow, probably because it is not redistributable, and not open source | 07:21 |
| chuy_max | is there a way to make booting splash not appear at all after I update my system?, I remove it from grub's menu.lst, but sometimes when I update my system, splash appears again. | 07:21 |
| praet0r_ | underwatercow, yes sun has a license on java | 07:21 |
| mikebot | What's the next ubuntu release going to be called? | 07:22 |
| underwatercow | Evanlec, praet0r_: So that problem isn't in installing it, it's just in intalling it from another location other than the java.com site? | 07:22 |
| Evanlec | chuy_max, i would put 'nosplash' at the end of your boot line in menu.lst | 07:22 |
| Not_Sure | Futsuriai: This is a GUI application | 07:22 |
| Inuyasha32246 | ok so aparently, there is no way to change the color of my name, or no one here cares to help me out | 07:22 |
| Inuyasha32246 | evan did you get that torrent running? | 07:22 |
| Evanlec | underwatercow, what problem? | 07:22 |
| underwatercow | Evanlec: legal problem | 07:23 |
| praet0r_ | i think it has something to do with the fact that it isnt gpl'ed | 07:23 |
| Evanlec | Inuyasha32246, hang on | 07:23 |
| Inuyasha32246 | k | 07:23 |
| chuy_max | ok Evanlec :), thanks for the info | 07:23 |
| praet0r_ | its not that its illegal, its just the licesnse isnt GPL | 07:23 |
| Inuyasha32246 | but seriously this is going to be nub, but this is my first night on irc, how do i change my name color? | 07:23 |
| mikebot | Does anyone know what the next ubuntu release is going to be called? | 07:23 |
| sjovan | how can i tell what kinde of icon i want to have related to serten kinde of files? | 07:23 |
| Evanlec | underwatercow, its a legal problem because it does not conform to the open source license, it is proprietary software and requires you to sign a license agreement | 07:23 |
| Futsuriai | Not_Sure, hold on let me get an example .class I have somewhere | 07:24 |

| zeroflag | I can't put it on the left side because in order to make the windowlist readable vertically, I have to make it >100 px wide - which takes away too much desktop space. and if I try to make it autohide, I can't pop it up without compiz spinning me around. | 08:10 |

| tech0007 | illuminaris: what i did on my system is manually delete some files, their actually hidden. edit ur preferences in nautilus to show hidden files. jst cant remember what these files are | 08:24 |
| juice_ | smmagic: it downloaded it automaticall last time but not this time for some reason i dunno | 08:24 |
| tech0007 | tarelerulz: if it doesnt work in synaptic. u can do it in terminal | 08:24 |

| bloony | how can I make sure the kernel-headers that they are talking about here is installed? "Install prerequisite packages: build-essential, kernel-headers-$VERSION, where $VERSION is the version of the kernel you want to build the driver for." | 09:34 |
| FuzzplugJones | how the heck do i turn off edge snapping in compiz? | 09:34 |
| mar1 | trying to install a webcam in Feisty.... I get this error /dev/video0: No such file or directory | 09:34 |
| Ademan | FuzzplugJones: no idea, but it's probably in the ccsm settings thing, one sec, that might not be the real package name | 09:35 |
| Ademan | !ccsm | 09:35 |
| FuzzplugJones | i've been in ccsm, nothing i do there seems to change anything | 09:35 |
| ubotu | To enable advanced customization of desktop effects in Ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy), install 'compizconfig-settings-manager'. A new option will appear in your appearance properties - See also !compiz - Help in #compiz-fusion | 09:35 |
| Ademan | hrm | 09:35 |
| Reng | anyone know what do "Userspace File System" setting do in compiz?? | 09:35 |
| FuzzplugJones | for example i have ADD mode on and it doesn't do anything different. | 09:35 |
| Ademan | i don't use compiz personally, so i don't know, i just figured it was there... | 09:35 |
| FuzzplugJones | it is, but... | 09:35 |
| Ademan | you might try in #ubuntu-effects | 09:36 |
| FuzzplugJones | this is a brand new 7.10 install btw | 09:36 |
| Ademan | they will at least know more than me | 09:36 |
| bertrf01 | I have problem with screensavers, they seem to like being infront of everything else, even the little preview window goes infront of other windows that are supposed to be infront of it | 09:36 |
| FuzzplugJones | oh ok | 09:36 |
| Ademan | bertrf01: aren't screensavers supposed to be in front of everything? | 09:36 |
| FuzzplugJones | other questions that might be proper here... where's a good place to get different visual themes for ubuntu? i'd prefer something more compact | 09:36 |
| inversekinetix | i keep hearing mention of EMERALD theme, how do I install new cool themes on ubuntu instead of the ones that come with it? | 09:37 |
| bertrf01 | Ademan: I'm trying to make a screensaver my wallpaper so not in my case | 09:37 |
| Ademan | more compacty? well www.gnome-look.org has a ton of themes, i don't know about "more compact" but murrine and clearlooks are great | 09:37 |
| Ademan | compact* | 09:37 |
| bloony | how can I make sure the kernel-headers that they are talking about here is installed? "Install prerequisite packages: build-essential, kernel-headers-$VERSION, where $VERSION is the version of the kernel you want to build the driver for." | 09:37 |
| FuzzplugJones | ok yeah that seems to be a strange shortcoming of linux in general... no compact themes :) | 09:38 |
| Ademan | bertrf01: ah, if you've got compiz running that may be part of the problem, i heard 3d wallpapers don't play nice with compiz | 09:38 |
| zero | hi | 09:38 |
| kahrytan | bertrf01, xwinwrap is your friend | 09:38 |
| Ademan | FuzzplugJones: heh, well i don't really know what you mean by "compact", but there are so many themes i'd be really suprised if you couldn't find one you liked | 09:38 |
| Dave_VK | how to force install a package? | 09:38 |
| Ademan | -f | 09:38 |
| bertrf01 | kahrytan: description please | 09:38 |
| Ademan | Dave_VK: why are you intent on breaking apt anyways? lol | 09:39 |
| Dave_VK | sudo apt-get -f install package? | 09:39 |
| Ademan | pretty sure | 09:39 |
| bertrf01 | Ademan: there must be a workaround of some kind though | 09:39 |
| Ademan | "man apt-get" should be a useful reference in the future though | 09:39 |
| zero | hello | 09:39 |
| kahrytan | bertrf01, xwinwrap is an app that allows users of xgl to replace a desktop background with a movie or screensaver. | 09:39 |
| zero | 09:39 | |
| zero | ??? | 09:39 |
| Ademan | hello zero | 09:39 |
| zero | hello | 09:40 |
| bloony | how can I make sure the kernel-headers that they are talking about here is installed? "Install prerequisite packages: build-essential, kernel-headers-$VERSION, where $VERSION is the version of the kernel you want to build the driver for." | 09:40 |
| zero | i want help to install cdemu | 09:40 |
| FuzzplugJones | Ademan: there's a great windows skin called advance4/2 where the window elements are really small and they get out of your way | 09:40 |
| FuzzplugJones | Ademan: or the minimal theme pack for trillian | 09:40 |
| Ademan | FuzzplugJones: by window elements do you mean like buttons and stuff? or like the window borders? | 09:41 |
| inversekinetix | how do i use emerald themes? | 09:41 |
| FuzzplugJones | yeah | 09:41 |
| FuzzplugJones | buttons, borders, the interface | 09:41 |
| kahrytan | inversekinetix, install ccsm | 09:41 |
| [|death|] | would anyone like to give me some advice on partitioning an external hard drive to boot ubuntu? | 09:41 |
| Ademan | oh, well there are two parts to any theme here, the window border, and the widgets inside of it (buttons, text, etc) | 09:41 |
| FuzzplugJones | hm. | 09:42 |
| kahrytan | inversekinetix, and emerald manager. oops | 09:42 |
| Ademan | if you're using gnome the widget themes are called gtk+ themes | 09:42 |
| FuzzplugJones | and i'm seeing now compiz has themes? | 09:42 |
| FuzzplugJones | i am using gnome | 09:42 |
| Ademan | compiz will have themes for the window borders | 09:42 |
| kahrytan | FuzzplugJones, Compiz Fusion has themes due to merger | 09:42 |
| FuzzplugJones | ok. | 09:42 |
| FuzzplugJones | yeah the titlebar/menubar just seem to take up so much room | 09:43 |
| Ademan | by the way FuzzplugJones you can change the size of the text for your widgets and window border and that should shrink things | 09:43 |
| ctrl | aye | 09:43 |
| FuzzplugJones | where, because i ran all the fonts down to 8pt and it's still not the "8pt" i'm used to | 09:43 |
| Ademan | FuzzplugJones: i guarantee you can make it look like you like, just spend a little bit on gnome-look | 09:43 |
| FuzzplugJones | i'm there :) | 09:43 |
| ctrl | got a strinage problem...screen res is only 640x480...yesterday I was able to choose from more res...where does ubuntu stores this? it does override the xorg-settings it seems | 09:43 |

| zero | how can install cdemu | 09:47 |
| kahrytan | Bios | 09:47 |
| UltraMagnus | mar1: well, first try googling the make and model of your webcam with the word "linux" and see what comes up | 09:47 |
| panny | i cant remember how to run it | 09:47 |
| [|death|] | any way i can do taht without rebooting | 09:48 |

| mar1 | UltraMagnus: I have tried that..... there is alot and not much at the same time | 09:48 |
| kahrytan | UltraMagnus, he could just check hard manager | 09:48 |
| mar1 | UltraMagnus: don't quite get what to look for | 09:48 |
| panny | does anyone know how to call up the config manager | 09:49 |
| achadwick | mar1: it appears to be supported by the "spcaxx" project, which might mean http://mxhaard.free.fr/download.html | 09:49 |
| kahrytan | mar1, check hardware information. | 09:49 |
| panny | for gnome | 09:49 |
| [|death|] | so im doing what now? | 09:49 |
| achadwick | mar1: you could use module-assistant (sudo m-a) to choose the spca5xx drivers and compile/install them | 09:49 |
| mar1 | achadwick: I was there.... I dunno what to do there | 09:49 |
| FuzzplugJones | what are the package names for the microsoft fonts? | 09:49 |
| achadwick | mar1: then it's just a matter of getting and running an application | 09:49 |

| achadwick | mar1: plug it in, open a terminal, and type 1) "lsusb" and 2) "lsmod". Could you then select all the output and paste it here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ | 09:55 |

| kahrytan | mar1, You could use videolan or similar and try loading /dev/video0 | 09:58 |
| mar1 | kahrytan: /dev/video0 does not exist | 09:58 |
| achadwick | Applications > Add/Remove Programs, and search for and add Camorama. Should work... | 09:59 |
| kahrytan | mar1, I said look in hardware information so you can look for location info | 09:59 |
| achadwick | mar1: odd. It might be buggy, or it might be using a different name. What kahrytan says about locations. | 10:00 |
| bertrf01 | I have a problem with xwinwrap, it is supposed to put the screensaver as the wallpaper but instead it covers everything | 10:00 |

| kahrytan | mar1, Just go down the tree of the usb controllers til you find the camera | 10:08 |
| mar1 | kahrytan: PC Camera is under MCP61 USB Controller > OHCI Host Controller | 10:08 |
| crockettoo | panny you use Alacarte to customise menus | 10:08 |
| achadwick | mar1: did you take any special action to load that "gspca" module, or did it do it All By Itself? | 10:08 |
| kahrytan | mar1, you got tree for the camera? | 10:09 |
| achadwick | The cam is *there*, it's just a question of getting it to work. This probably isn't a USB issue. | 10:09 |

| Mait | 안녕하세요 | 10:17 |
| _Ulver_ | JoshHendo, I tried to index folders on Tracker preferences on System Menu but unsuccesfully. It seems it isn't indexing. I deduce it 'cause on Beagle (I've used on Feisty Fawn) it shows when all data are indexed | 10:18 |

| achadwick | mar1: Okay. You might have to grab the newest gspca from http://mxhaard.free.fr/download.html and compile it against your Ubuntu kernel. Check the compatibility charts on the site before you do that, and *get the hardware IDs (XXXX:XXXX)* from your lsusb output before trying this, because you mught be wasting your time. There's also the #spca5xx channel on freenode. | 10:27 |
| _Ulver_ | buttercups, not working. I think the problem is: Trackerd aren't indexing. Só, why it'll reindex some data if it wasn't indexed nothing until now? | 10:27 |

| m0u5e | livingdaylight: go to your software sources, and siable it | 10:42 |
| kahrytan | kakoonia, when compiling, you always need -dev packages. | 10:42 |

| m0u5e | livingdaylight: hardware specs, what you need to do | 10:46 |

| inversekinetix | kahrytan i dont know how to uninstall it | 10:56 |
| kahrytan | inversekinetix, you can uninstall compiled software | 10:56 |
| Sander_ | perhaps there? | 10:56 |
| Foxdie | kahrytan: it was a one off, I won't be pasting again | 10:56 |
| kahrytan | inversekinetix, make uninstall | 10:56 |
| phix | Troc_: yeah, all unmutted and volume all the way up, now what? ?) | 10:56 |
| phix | :) | 10:56 |
| m0u5e | livingdaylight: i'm not sure exactly what the problem is :X | 10:56 |

| oo7andrew | Has ubuntu lost support for non-sata harddrives or something? I'm booting it and getting "ata 1.00 exception emask 0x... frozen" over and over and it takes more than 20 minutes for (the live cd) to boot | 10:56 |
| ikonia | Foxdie: you can't unmount / - that will always be busy, you'll need to use the livecd to fix | 10:56 |
| Troc_ | phix: test | 10:57 |
| Gunn | hey if I just installed apache2, php5, and mysql how can I uninstall them ? | 10:57 |
| m0u5e | oo7andrew: are you using gutsy? | 10:57 |
| kahrytan | inversekinetix, in the 3d directory where you used make install | 10:57 |
| inversekinetix | kahrytan i dont know how to uninstall that way | 10:57 |

| Sander_ | sudo vi /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf | 10:57 |
| ikonia | oo7andrew: I'll bet thats libata complaining about your cdrom | 10:57 |
| kahrytan | inversekinetix, I just told you. | 10:57 |
| ikonia | oo7andrew: $10 | 10:57 |
| m0u5e | oo7andrew: try using gutsy, it may be a driver issue | 10:57 |
| Foxdie | ikonia: um.. kinda impossible, I'm doing this remotely on a server in a datacenter about 80 miles away | 10:57 |
| m0u5e | oo7andrew: i'm guessing your system is relatively new? | 10:57 |
| kahrytan | inversekinetix, In 3d directory, sudo make uninstall | 10:57 |
| ikonia | Foxdie you'll have to reboot it then | 10:57 |
| oo7andrew | no it's 5 years old | 10:57 |
| phix | Troc_: ? | 10:57 |
| phix | Troc_: test? I did :) It doesn't work | 10:58 |

| kahrytan | Gunirus, remove lamp | 10:58 |
| Sander_ | Yancho: you installed apache? | 10:58 |
| ikonia | libata complains a lot about cd's - its nothing to worry about | 10:58 |
| Foxdie | I can reboot it no problem, the only problem with that then is that it'll try and remount /dev/md1 as swap, I could edit /etc/fstab but I've no way of knowing if it'll be editing it on the default /dev/md0 or the new /dev/md1 | 10:58 |

| Troc_ | phix: sorry, wasn't sure ... you see you card ... it is unmuted, how are you testing the mic ? | 10:58 |
| Foxdie | is there a way to trace where, if I try to access a file, it can tell me exactly which partition its stored on? | 10:58 |

The network card is Ipw 2200 card and shouldnt be that hard to get working.. | 10:59 |
| ikonia | Foxdie thats the gam ble - you've messed it up | 10:59 |
| oo7andrew | yup | 10:59 |
| kahrytan | inversekinetix, I told ya it's buggy | 10:59 |
| m0u5e | Foxdie: are the UUIDs for the doppelgangers exactly the same in fstab | 10:59 |

| tony_ | how do i setup voice commands? anyone? | 11:00 |
| kahrytan | inversekinetix, no idea. use compiz-themes.org | 11:00 |
| Sander_ | Yancho: ah... it's this file: /etc/apache2/apache2.conf | 11:00 |
| Troc_ | aha, have a look at something like audacity, in the prefences you get a few options to select your device, you can also visually appreciate if any sounds are being detected. | 11:00 |
| Yancho | thanks Sander_ :)) | 11:00 |

| inversekinetix | kahrytan do you know how to revert to standard windows rather than emeralds opaque ones? | 11:02 |

| m0u5e | Gunn: you can put after the other, like: sudo apt-get remove <file1> <file2> <file3> ... | 11:03 |
| Biff | alain: start that program, and it will simply ask you when the phone sends a file | 11:03 |
| kahrytan | inversekinetix, so simple isnt it? | 11:03 |
| m0u5e | Gunn: for example, sudo apt-get remove xchat, xchat-gnome, mplayer, audacity, etc | 11:04 |

| inversekinetix | or you can just do what jonasj says | 11:54 |
| inversekinetix | KDX is a sweet little app btw | 11:54 |

| jonasj | bertrf01: how is your hard disk partitioned? | 12:13 |
| bertrf01 | jonasj: the default way ubuntu partitions it | 12:13 |
| jonasj | bertrf01: FourX4Luvn suggested you run windows virtualized under ubuntu -- would that work for you? | 12:13 |
| computer12345 | i cant believe k9copy is working :) | 12:14 |
| computer12345 | hehe | 12:14 |
| jonasj | bertrf01: if you need to run heavy 3d games for example, you probably don't want a virtual machine | 12:14 |
| * FourX4Luvn nods | 12:14 | |
| FourX4Luvn | True. Hadn't thought of that | 12:14 |
| jonasj | bertrf01: but if it's for, say, an accounting program, i'd also recommend virtualization | 12:14 |
| jonasj | bertrf01: so what do you need windows for? | 12:15 |
| Scypher | Hi, I have a ThinkPad T22 and apparently the gfx card doesn't work well with 7.10, I had to install with Vesa drivers. Once installed, how can I reconfigure xorg to work with savage drivers? | 12:15 |
| Gunn | jonasj I only use windows for games | 12:17 |
| Gunn | jonasj you were not asking me, but just sayin | 12:17 |
| jonasj | Gunn: i asked him because we are trying to decide if he should dualboot or run windows under a VM... | 12:18 |
| Gunn | jonasj ah ok sorry | 12:18 |
| jonasj | :) | 12:18 |
| Scypher | run windows and run linux under VM | 12:19 |

| MannyZ | or runescape | 12:20 |
| MannyZ | anything | 12:20 |
| jonasj | flash. | 12:20 |
| MannyZ | i guess | 12:20 |
| devilsadvocate | ubuntu gutsy is freaking awesome :D | 12:21 |
| jonasj | devilsadvocate: that's good to hear. many people are having problems with it... | 12:21 |
| MannyZ | jonasj so how i fic it? | 12:21 |
| Gunn | devilsadvocate i am 2 days new to linux so i am still trying to find use for it | 12:21 |
| MannyZ | fix* | 12:21 |
| damianl | anyone want to help me or know a good tutorial for adding a hdd with an os to grub | 12:21 |
| revilodraw | devilsadvocate; trust you to say that lol | 12:21 |
| jonasj | MannyZ: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=255422 maybe | 12:21 |
| jonasj | MannyZ: i don't know, i just googled it and that came up | 12:22 |
| devilsadvocate | i'm having problems too - loads of them. tilda crashes, aptitude freezes up my comp when reading the database. doesnt make it any less awesomer | 12:22 |
| jonasj | many of peoples problems here seems to be solvable with a little googling :) | 12:22 |
| devilsadvocate | didnt have to manually configure _anything_ - no codec issues, plash, even java browser plugin :| | 12:22 |
| jonasj | damianl: i can probably help you with that | 12:22 |
| FourX4Luvn | I'm curious how the majority of people upgraded. I haven't had a single problem since upgrading, and I tend to doubt I'm just that lucky. | 12:22 |
| Gunn | I am new to linux and am trying to find out why I installed it other than because I want to learn linux, but so far I havent done anything with it that I cannot do in windows | 12:22 |
| sysop | Anyone know how to change the link destination on a set of links Ie: * -> /bla/* becomes... * -> /bla2/* ??? | 12:22 |
| MannyZ | jonasj thanks! | 12:23 |
| jonasj | MannyZ: let me know if it works! | 12:23 |
| damianl | jonasj well where do i start | 12:23 |
| MannyZ | ok! | 12:23 |
| sjovan | how do you send files with finch? | 12:23 |
| devilsadvocate | Gunn, spend some time doing these things on linux, and then go back to windows. You'll see the difference | 12:23 |
| revilodraw | only one problem since upgrade to gutsy; some avi files are not playing in vlc | 12:23 |
| damianl | jonasj firstly its a config file somewhere i have to edit...correct? | 12:23 |
| Gunn | but things like what, chatting on irc, surfing the web | 12:23 |
| Gunn | I havent done anything to "linux'ie" | 12:24 |
| jonasj | Gunn: it's a common story: someone switches to ubuntu, uses it a few weeks, doesn't notice much difference from windows, but then when they try windows again, they suddenly notice all the problems they had forgotten about | 12:24 |
| pawan | hi | 12:24 |
| pawan | how to automatically login | 12:24 |
| sysop | any ln gurus in here??? | 12:24 |
| FourX4Luvn | Gunn: If all you generally do is surf the web, check email, chat in IRC, you'll hardly notice any difference between the two. | 12:24 |
| Gunn | well I am a PHP programmer, but also want to explore linux a lot and learn it, but not sure what to learn exactly lol | 12:24 |
| superpigs | where is xserver-xorg located? | 12:24 |
| jonasj | damianl: you are connecting an extra hard disk to your computer, right? and it has an OS on it? which OS? | 12:24 |
| Gunn | what do you average linux users do that puts you apart from windows users ? | 12:25 |
| devilsadvocate | Gunn, its easier to install stuff on ubuntu than it is on linux :P | 12:25 |
| damianl | jonasj yes a hdd with windows installed | 12:25 |
| revilodraw | gunn; very little lol | 12:25 |
| MannyZ | jonasj no it dosnt work :( | 12:25 |
| devilsadvocate | on windows* | 12:25 |
| pawan | hello | 12:25 |
| sysop | Gunn: we dont reboot daily, lol! | 12:25 |
| jonasj | damianl: and you only have one harddrive already, and it only has ubuntu on it -- correct? | 12:25 |
| gordonjcp | Gunn: I develop audio software on Linux, but I don't use Windows at all | 12:25 |
| jonasj | MannyZ: too bad... i can't help you, but try googling | 12:25 |
| damianl | jonasj yes | 12:25 |
| gordonjcp | Gunn: and indeed, I haven't used Windows for over 10 years | 12:25 |
| Gunn | I will say this, Its nice to not feel like im in the grips of Microsoft | 12:26 |
| jonasj | damianl: okay. what version of ubuntu and windows? | 12:26 |
| damianl | feisty studio edition and xp | 12:26 |
| New2Ubuntu | Hi Im thinking fo buying a new TV Tuner card. Does anyone know if Pinnacle PCTV Externa would be ok . Its one which uses a USB port | 12:26 |
| pawan | there is no login window | 12:26 |
| Gunn | I just hope I can find more to do that will put me apart from having to use windows | 12:26 |
| revilodraw | i HATE the gutsy amsn icon | 12:26 |
| computer12345 | so far xubuntu been great :) | 12:26 |
| Gunn | maybe learn how to program a little | 12:26 |
| pawan | what the error | 12:27 |
| sysop | Gunn: have you tried wine? | 12:27 |
| jonasj | damianl: the file that needs editing is /boot/grub/menu.lst | 12:27 |
| Gunn | yeah I have wine installed | 12:27 |
| jonasj | damianl: can you paste your menu.lst on pastebin for me? | 12:27 |
| damianl | New2Ubuntu do you mind whice one you get as it does it ahve to bhave any particular features? | 12:27 |
| Gunn | downloaded STEAM so I could attempt to play Team Fortress 2 but that didnt run well | 12:27 |
| sysop | Gunn: then there is no reason to ever use windows again... lol | 12:27 |
| pawan | any altf2 command | 12:27 |
| damianl | damn keyboard | 12:27 |
| FourX4Luvn | Gunn: WHen you program PHP are you an IDE type person or simple text editor? | 12:27 |
| sysop | Anyone know how to change the link destination on a set of links Ie: * -> /bla/* becomes... * -> /bla2/* can someone help??? | 12:28 |
| Gunn | text editor | 12:28 |
| damianl | New2Ubuntu do you mind whice one you get as in does it have to have any particular features? | 12:28 |
| damianl | jonasj ok onesec | 12:28 |
| FourX4Luvn | Gunn: http://www.gravitonic.com/blog/archives/000357.html | 12:28 |
| jrib | sysop: recreate the link | 12:28 |
| New2Ubuntu | damianl as long as it works in Linux Im fine :(. but the only restriction I have is Im at India hence the lack of options in most places | 12:28 |
| MannyZ | omfg... | 12:29 |
| bertrf01 | jonasj: windows under virtualised ubuntu would be fine | 12:29 |
| FourX4Luvn | Gunn: I know, you can use gvim on Windows.. but it just feels so much better to use it on *NIX where it was designed to be ;-) | 12:29 |
| MannyZ | the most important thing is not working!!!!!!111 | 12:29 |
| sysop | jrib: I have like 100 links to do the same thing to... any better suggestions??? | 12:29 |
| pawan | can we install mint and ubuntu on same pc | 12:29 |
| jrib | sysop: you want to change 100 links? | 12:29 |
| damianl | New2Ubuntu i would reccomend a winfast card i have one and haven't had any problems within linux | 12:29 |
| jonasj | pawan: if you really want to, yeah, you could... | 12:29 |
| mEck0 | is there any app which I can use for mixing music? and is there some dj-app for linux? | 12:29 |
| sysop | jrib: something like that | 12:29 |
| New2Ubuntu | WIll check if it is available damianl | 12:30 |
| damianl | New2Ubuntu and there cheap | 12:30 |
| sysop | jrib: its a bunch | 12:30 |
| jonasj | mEck0: check out http://ubuntustudio.org - you might like that | 12:30 |
| jonasj | bertrf01: surely you mean virtualised windows under ubuntu? | 12:30 |
| devilsadvocate | mEck0, theres something called djplay n thee repos | 12:30 |
| New2Ubuntu | damianl Not available :( | 12:30 |
| mEck0 | devilsadvocate, ok thx | 12:31 |
| New2Ubuntu | damianl at least not on ebay.in | 12:31 |
| jrib | sysop: write a for loop to do it for you. Or (kind of dumb) link bla to bla2. Hard to suggest something better without more details | 12:31 |
| bertrf01 | jonasj: I want to use cygin in ubuntu | 12:31 |
| jonasj | bertrf01: you mean cygwin?? | 12:31 |
| pawan | hi | 12:31 |
| bertrf01 | jonasj: yes | 12:31 |
| jonasj | that wouldn't make much sense... | 12:31 |
| jonasj | bertrf01: why do you want to do that? | 12:32 |
| bertrf01 | jonasj: And i want to use wine in cygwin if possible | 12:32 |
| mEck0 | jonasj, yeah I know about ubuntustudio, but I recently installed 7.10 so I don't want to reinstall again :( but you know which app can be used for mixing tracks? is Ardour or Rosegarden for stuff like that? | 12:32 |
| bertrf01 | jonasj: i'm just kidding | 12:32 |
| jonasj | bertrf01: GOOD :) | 12:32 |
| New2Ubuntu | damianl Here are some of them that would most likely be available at stores http://search.ebay.in/tv-tuner_W0QQ_trksidZm37QQcatrefZC6QQcoactionZcompareQQcoentrypageZsearchQQcopagenumZ1QQfromZR10QQfsooZ2QQfsopZ3QQftrtZ1QQftrvZ1QQga10244Z10425QQsabfmtsZ1QQsacatZQ2d1QQsaobfmtsZsifonlyQQsaprchiZQQsaprcloZQQsbrsrtZl | 12:32 |
| jonasj | bertrf01: but i actually once had a guy ask me for help setting up the windows port of an amiga emulator originally for unix, under wine | 12:33 |
| pawan | how to install d desktop | 12:33 |
| jonasj | bertrf01: i directed him to the native version instead | 12:33 |
| pawan | 3d desktop | 12:33 |
| jonasj | mEck0: i don't remember what what is called... | 12:33 |
| computer12345 | how do i get the *.inf (i think) files for my wireless driver. because xubuntu is not finding it | 12:33 |
| damianl | jonasj http://pastebin.com/m506725c | 12:34 |
| FourX4Luvn | mEck0: You can get any of the programs that ubuntustudio comes with installed on regular ubuntu. I can't tell you what program you'd want, but you don't have to reinstall just to use what it comes with. | 12:34 |
| mEck0 | FourX4Luvn, ok | 12:34 |
| sysop | jrib: ok, I want to create a /usr/lib/jvm/default to point to /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun but I want to move the links in /etc/alternatives | 12:34 |
| devilsadvocate | mEck0, i _think_ you can install the ubuntu-studio application set over ubuntu. | 12:34 |
| bertrf01 | jonasj: sounds quite confusing | 12:35 |
| FourX4Luvn | mEck0: Same as I use Ubuntu, but I could change to the KDE desktop if I wanted to. I don't have to reinstall Kubuntu in order to use it. Just makes it easier if you install from that CD is all. | 12:35 |
| mEck0 | devilsadvocate, aha that would be an idea | 12:35 |
| ZeroA4 | mEck0, ubuntu studio is in the repos of 7.10 | 12:35 |
| ChaosMachine | computer12345, inf is a windows format I belive. | 12:35 |
| damianl | jonasj do i need to set the kernel= option for windows? | 12:35 |
| mEck0 | ZeroA4, ah will check | 12:35 |
| damianl | damianl otherwise i think i got it | 12:35 |
| bluekoala | Hello | 12:36 |
| devilsadvocate | mEck0, you could also look at this thing called tasksel | 12:36 |
| ZeroA4 | mEck0, search for ubuntustudio in the synaptic | 12:36 |
| computer12345 | i need the windows xp driver files so that ubuntu works with my wireless. so how do i find the files i need? | 12:36 |
| jrib | sysop: does 'update-java-alternatives' affect that? | 12:36 |
| mEck0 | ZeroA4, yeah found it with searching for ubuntu studio :) | 12:36 |
| jonasj | damianl: to boot up windows, you need four lines | 12:36 |
| Yancho | How can i disable iptables? i installed Firestarted but I realised I dont need to be that protected and removed it .. however it is still locking me out | 12:36 |
| jonasj | damianl: root (hd1,0) (or whatever the disk and partition are called) | 12:36 |
| ChaosMachine | computer12345, who told you that you needed the XP driver? | 12:36 |
| sysop | jrib no | 12:36 |
| jonasj | damianl: makeactive | 12:36 |
| jonasj | damianl: chainloader +1 | 12:36 |
| jonasj | damianl: - actually, that was just three lines | 12:37 |
| computer12345 | a book | 12:37 |
| damianl | and title? | 12:37 |
| sysop | jrib: the "default" is something I am creating... thats for new vm's | 12:37 |
| bluekoala | I need help with samba/windows network if anybody know common problems with it | 12:37 |
| mEck0 | devilsadvocate, is tasksel like an CLI-version of synaptic? | 12:37 |
| devilsadvocate | jonasj, you forgot boot | 12:37 |
| jonasj | damianl: oh, title of course | 12:37 |
| revilodraw | i want to reinstall vlc.... but ;completely remove' in synaptic never really works....what do i do? | 12:37 |
| jonasj | devilsadvocate: no, no boot, just chainloader | 12:37 |
| FourX4Luvn | Yancho: http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/linux-iptables-how-to-flush-all-rules.html | 12:37 |
| jonasj | devilsadvocate: chainloader transfers control to the windows bootloader on the specified partition | 12:38 |
| devilsadvocate | jonasj, if i remeber correctly you need to type in boot at the end of that. I could be wrong though | 12:38 |
| jrib | sysop: you want to make a link '/usr/lib/jvm/default -> /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun'. What do you want to do with the links in /etc/alternatives? | 12:38 |
| Troc_ | revilodraw: sudo apt-get --purge remove vlc | 12:38 |
| damianl | thanks il be back gonna chuck this hdd in and see what i can do | 12:38 |
| jonasj | devilsadvocate: my menu.lst has no boot under the windows entry, and it works | 12:38 |
| jonasj | devilsadvocate: and was autogenerated by the ubuntu installer | 12:38 |
| devilsadvocate | mEck0, not really. it seems to be a program that installs groups of packages instead of single ones. Theyve bunched toghter some useful packaged that are usually used together, and tasksel handles installing them all | 12:39 |
| jonasj | damianl: come back later and tell us if it worked :-) | 12:39 |
| lazuardi | jknhjk | 12:39 |
| mEck0 | devilsadvocate, ah sounds good | 12:39 |
| devilsadvocate | jonasj: oh, ok. i guess thats only needed when manually typing in the commands at the grub console :P | 12:39 |
| sysop | jrib: I have the first part, the second /etc/alternatives currently point to /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun but I want them to point to /usr/lib/jvm/default | 12:39 |
| damianl | i will do | 12:39 |
| revilodraw | ok... only some avi files are playing strangely since the upgrade to fesity | 12:40 |
| superpigs | when i started ubuntu today my screen resolution is low at 600x400 and i cant change it in system -> prefrences -> screen resolution so i tried to edit xserver-xorg but it wont start on me | 12:40 |
| superpigs | what to do? | 12:40 |
| MarcoPau | hey, where am I supposed to put the modules in order to be automatically loaded at boot? | 12:40 |
| devilsadvocate | superpigs, what graphics card do you have? | 12:40 |
| jrib | sysop: why? it seems like you are circumventing the alternatives system for some reason | 12:40 |
| superpigs | devilsadvocate i have a gforce with a proprietary driver and i have the proprietary driver in use | 12:40 |
| superpigs | NVIDIA <<< | 12:41 |
| MarcoPau | there's a howto for a driver I just installed which talkes about /etc/modules.preload, but I only have modules.conf | 12:41 |
| devilsadvocate | superpigs, did you enable using the nvidia restricted driver in the restricted driver manager? | 12:41 |
| murlidhar | is there any specfic channel for discussing sound drivers? | 12:41 |
| Troc_ | superpigs: scour the /var/log/Xorg*log file(s) for hints | 12:41 |
| sysop | jrib: yep, I want to be able to easily switch java versions, as I am a Java developer, and will be working on the compiler | 12:41 |
| superpigs | devilsadvocate yes | 12:41 |
| superpigs | troc_ | 12:41 |
| superpigs | ok | 12:41 |
| Troc_ | lines (EE) maybe interest | 12:41 |
| jrib | sysop: ok, but why would you not use the alternatives system to do that then? | 12:41 |
| sysop | jrib: so as the alternative switching does not support MY version of java... | 12:42 |
| MrYou | guys any issues regarding rhythmbox and visualization in gutsy? | 12:42 |
| FourX4Luvn | superpigs: cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep EE | 12:42 |

| computer12345 | it seems that ndiswrapper and ndisgtk needs the windows xp driver files (*.inf). how do i get these files under xp? or vista? | 12:42 |
| devilsadvocate | superpigs, run "sudo nividia-settings inn a command line | 12:42 |
| sysop | jrib: jrib how? | 12:42 |
| lazuardi | adam_ | 12:42 |
| bluekoala | Why can't I seem my ubuntu box on the windows network? They're all set to workgroup: MSHOME. I can't even see my ubuntu box on there from my ubuntu box! | 12:42 |
| devilsadvocate | "sudo nvidia-settings" | 12:42 |
| computer12345 | where would they be installed? | 12:42 |
| MrYou | My rhythmbox is jerky if I enabled visualization ... and when i set size to small it plays but no visualization... is this a bug? | 12:43 |
| ghost | anyone familiar with the bc43xx driver and its performance in fiesty? | 12:43 |
| jamili | can i make ALSA or the other sound device i have (both working good) to play sounds from more than one source at a time? | 12:43 |
| jrib | sysop: 'man update-alternatives' explains how to add alternatives. I'm not on ubuntu atm, so cannot tell you how update-java-alternatives works, but it should be similarly documented | 12:43 |
| devilsadvocate | ghost, the broadcom bluetooth module? | 12:43 |

| sh4rk | Hi , I'm running Ubuntu Dapper (6.06) on a latitude 630. I found the only way to get the sounds and network to work was to upgrade the kernel. Previously I used a 2.6.20-15 kernel to get a dell optiplex 745 working to i used the same here. Sounds now works and also network. Only problem is my automounting stopped working. I've had the same issue on a manua kernel update in another scenario with no luck in finding the problem. I see udevmonitor -e shows eve | 12:45 |
| htraki | does anybody knows the answer to ttf-opensymbol upgrade failure? | 12:45 |
| sh4rk | rything it should but doesnt then mount the device. Ne pointers ? | 12:45 |
| htraki | says install script error code 29 | 12:46 |
| Troc_ | gnr: should be working now, but it is described as unstable. so who knows, perhaps others can run you through the checklist to get compiz working. | 12:46 |
| gnr | i'll try again later :( thanks for helpin tho buddy :) | 12:46 |
| Troc_ | yw :) | 12:46 |

| FourX4Luvn | Yancho: Sounds like it's not an iptables issue then. What exactly is going on? | 12:47 |
| bluekoala | sh4rk: Are you able to manually mount them? | 12:47 |
| kaleh | and the fonts are horrible | 12:47 |
| sh4rk | bluekoala, yep! :) | 12:47 |
| kaleh | should i try re-installing F/Fox? | 12:47 |
| bluekoala | sh4rk: Then I am all out of ideas :P | 12:47 |
| Pici | kaleh: Why can't you change them? | 12:47 |
| sh4rk | i think gnome-volume-manager isn't doing its thing | 12:47 |
| sh4rk | bluekoala, thnx ne ways :) | 12:47 |
| Yancho | FourX4Luvn i think the uninstallation of Firestarter got bonkers .. i cannot reinstall it .. and its still on the System shortcut .. but when i go on it it says that there is no installation | 12:47 |
| kaleh | dunno. only the size changes. the font remains the same whatever i change it to in Preferences | 12:48 |
| ZeroA4 | Yancho, could be that the uninstall did not remove the menu entry... you can remove youself system - preferences - main menu | 12:49 |
| XsteelWolf | does anyone knows lvs chat # ? | 12:49 |
| FourX4Luvn | Yancho: 'sudo apt-get remove firestarter' | 12:49 |
| FourX4Luvn | Yancho: What does that do? | 12:50 |
| Pici | kaleh: And the rest of your system fonts are okay? | 12:50 |
| kaleh | yes | 12:50 |
| kaleh | np anywhere else. only in f/fox | 12:51 |
| Yancho | ok it finished FourX4Luvn | 12:51 |
| FourX4Luvn | Yancho: Any errors? | 12:51 |
| Yancho | no | 12:51 |
| Yancho | but i still cant ssh / ftp / http:| | 12:52 |
| FourX4Luvn | Yancho: Ok... THen do this, just to make sure there's nothing hanging around that shouldn't be. 'sudo apt-get autoremove' | 12:52 |
| ikonia | Yancho: what is the problem | 12:52 |
| Pici | kaleh: And have you tried changing it within the advanced font properties too? | 12:52 |
| Yancho | invalid operation autoremove | 12:52 |
| Yancho | ikonia cant connect to my machine after i installed firestarter - but now i think its better without firewall | 12:53 |
| kaleh | Pici: yes | 12:53 |
| Pici | kaleh: Before you try a reinstall, what version of FF are you using? | 12:53 |
| Pici | kaleh: I just want to do a little bug hunting :) | 12:53 |
| kaleh | 2.0.0.8 | 12:54 |

| FourX4Luvn | Yancho: I'm not very familiar with firestarter. It's possible that may work if it controls more than just IPTables. | 12:55 |

| MasterShrek | atlfalcons866, the more filespace that is used has nothing to do with your speed, it matters more how many programs you have running at a given time. | 13:32 |

| jamili | can i make ALSA or the other sound device i have (both working good) to play sounds from more than one source at a time? | 14:12 |
| jamili | i'm sure there has to be afix for this :\ | 14:13 |
| RedB14 | stefg yes /media/disk/home/ | 14:13 |
| livingdaylight | FourX4Luvn: yes, exactly | 14:13 |
| bsund | is there any way to easy remove stuff that i got from apt-get build-dep? | 14:13 |
| RedonDo | . | 14:13 |
| livingdaylight | FourX4Luvn: wondering whether we have alternative choices to our default starter too? | 14:13 |
| FourX4Luvn | jamili: I know there is, as mine plays multiple sounds.. but it's done that from default, I have no idea what to tell you to try to fix it, sorry | 14:13 |
| jamili | :O | 14:14 |
| jamili | FourX4Luvn, you just installed Gutsy and you could play many sounds at a time? | 14:14 |
| stefg | RedB14: that looks wrong.... what's the device / partition name of your installed *root* system ? | 14:14 |
| jamili | FourX4Luvn, or did you download drivers for your sound card, because i think i haven't | 14:14 |
| void^ | jamili: on sound chips that don't support hardware mixing you might have to setup dmix | 14:15 |
| boris_ | is this SubSection in xorg.conf added correctly ? http://pastebin.com/d2da910b8 | 14:15 |
| FourX4Luvn | jamili: Well, I've been using ubuntu since.. Feisty I think.. 2 versions ago anyway... but it's been that way from the first install. | 14:15 |
| jamili | oh ok | 14:15 |
| jamili | void^, dmix is some app? | 14:15 |
| jamili | !dmix | 14:16 |
| ubotu | If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 14:16 |
| FourX4Luvn | livingdaylight: Yes, you do have choices... I just installed one yesterday actually.. but I'm having trouble remembering what it was called. | 14:16 |
| voraistos | hey guys. have any idea WHY we are being obliged to run gparted as ROOT? thats pointless. and dangerous. | 14:16 |
| RedB14 | stefg i have /media/disk that's all | 14:16 |

| voraistos | boris_ seems alright | 14:18 |
| boris_ | ok | 14:18 |
| stefg | RedB14: then 'sudo mount -o proc proc' | 14:18 |
| voraistos | boris_ you could get rid of the refresh rates though. | 14:19 |
| voraistos | well, i think. | 14:19 |
| burg | why? and what to do? | 14:19 |
| RedonDo | under what circumstances would i need to type /etc/init.d/networking restart? | 14:19 |
| boris_ | voraistos : ok, now im gonna restart X and see if its working | 14:19 |
| RedB14 | stefg that's all? | 14:19 |
| stefg | RedB14: no... so you had no error up to now ? | 14:19 |

| liddan | Can anyone explain to me why apt-get keep getting stuck? I was able to get it unstuck by doing and update and an upgrade. But now when I build essential again I got stuck. and update and upgrade did not solve it this time. | 14:20 |
| burg | Jupp2, sudo apt-get install build-essentials ? | 14:20 |
| Zombie | I have an application that requires OSS Support, but my sound card is only supported by ALSA and the system seems to be missing /dev/dsp | 14:21 |
| Jupp2 | burg, yes | 14:21 |
| RedonDo | i reset it when my connection is down..funny i can remote control my ubuntu router using some other pc in the lan..but the connection to the isp gets dropped regularly | 14:21 |
| voraistos | anyone knows if i ever will be able to run ubuntu on an sis 550 SoC ? | 14:21 |
| RedonDo | which log file should i look into in that case? | 14:21 |
| Jupp2 | burg, it sounds like you don't have a C compiler, so this will give you one | 14:21 |
| burg | E: Couldn't find package build-essentials | 14:21 |
| stefg | RedB14: now run 'sudo update initramfs -u' | 14:21 |

| livingdaylight | FourX4Luvn: thx hombre... its funny how when we don't try things come back ... its all about the ram | 14:21 |
| bsund | burg, build-essential | 14:22 |
| stefg | RedB14: now run 'sudo update-initramfs -u' , rather | 14:22 |

| brontos | anyone know how to mount a windows share in fstab where the windows share name has a space in it? For example "//host/folder shared"? | 14:22 |
| burg | installing it now | 14:22 |
| jaym | i need some recommendations. I have 2 pc's running gutsy. Desktop and Laptop I would like to keep them in sync as much as possible. Email, Documents, Programs so when I take laptop out of the house I wont be missing anything that maybe on desktop | 14:23 |
| Jupp2 | burg, sorry!! | 14:23 |
| voraistos | did they change the pkg name or i am getting old ? | 14:23 |
| RedB14 | stefg it return errors a big list all of them : permission denied | 14:23 |
| Jupp2 | my bad, extra "s" at the end | 14:23 |
| RedB14 | :s | 14:23 |
| brontos | jaym: imap for email and rsync for files | 14:23 |
| stefg | brontos: put it in quotes "folder shared" | 14:23 |
| FourX4Luvn | livingdaylight: You know what I ended up doing.. If it's of any interest to you.. I have a small screen on this laptop so I just ended up removing the menu all together... YOu can still access it, by default, with <alt>+f1, but it doesn't take up any space now. | 14:23 |
| burg | no problem | 14:23 |
| voraistos | i thought THERE WAS a bloody S | 14:23 |
| superpigs | any good apps for partitioning and format in linux? | 14:23 |
| livingdaylight | FourX4Luvn: do you know anything about system requirements? I can't handle 3D | 14:23 |
| voraistos | no wonder nothing will compile whahaha :P | 14:23 |
| FourX4Luvn | livingdaylight: And you can still customize the menu by going to System/Preferences/Main Menu | 14:24 |
| livingdaylight | FourX4Luvn: sounds sweet, but i prolly wanna keep at least one panel | 14:24 |
| brontos | stefg: that doesn't work | 14:24 |
| jaym | brontos: can rsync be setup so as soon as I save a file to my docs folder it will copy over to other box? | 14:24 |
| FourX4Luvn | livingdaylight: no no, I kept the panel.. Just removed the main menu from the panel. | 14:24 |
| livingdaylight | FourX4Luvn: opensuse done some nice things for the desktop heh? | 14:24 |
| FourX4Luvn | livingdaylight: What do you mean you can't handle 3d? | 14:24 |
| stefg | RedB14: hmm ... ok, so run sudo -s and enter the password of your installed user | 14:25 |
| livingdaylight | FourX4Luvn: oh, ok, yea... | 14:25 |
| voraistos | hes got no 3d card | 14:25 |
| brontos | jaym: I am not real sure. I bet you can come up with something to make it fire in cron | 14:25 |
| livingdaylight | FourX4Luvn: i can't handle compiz 3d... i have integrated graphics card | 14:25 |
| FourX4Luvn | livingdaylight: I guess so.. I wasn't aware of anything good that SuSE brought Linux (at least not since I tried it about 6 years ago) | 14:25 |
| jaym | k thanx | 14:25 |
| brontos | jaym: there may also be better solutions for file replication | 14:25 |
| superpigs | can someone name me the apps for partitioning/formating of hdds ? | 14:25 |
| RedB14 | stefg sudo -s : didnt asked for a passwd !! | 14:25 |
| GamingX | How do I set up a proxy connection on Ubuntu 7.04? | 14:26 |
| voraistos | linvingdaylight what card ? | 14:26 |
| FourX4Luvn | livingdaylight: Ok. Let me guess.. You just installed 7.10 | 14:26 |
| livingdaylight | FourX4Luvn: unfortunately suse has done more innovation in linux than almost any other distro... | 14:26 |
| livingdaylight | FourX4Luvn: yes | 14:26 |
| stefg | RedB14: ok... so try running 'update-initramfs -u' now again | 14:26 |
| aguitel | i have some problem ,when i start ubuntu it say:authentication failed ,do you know how a fix this? | 14:26 |
| RedB14 | stefg the same problem : permission denied ! | 14:27 |
| livingdaylight | FourX4Luvn: kde also have something cool called katapult alt+space and a small window comes up from which you can launch any application.... really fast that way | 14:27 |
| livingdaylight | FourX4Luvn: i'd like to see more stuff like that in gnome too | 14:27 |
| FourX4Luvn | Hrm... You know.. I looked around quite a bit on how to change away from metacity to compiz before I upgraded.. Don't have a clue how you can move back to metacity in 7.10 though. | 14:27 |
| FourX4Luvn | livingdaylight: Gnome has similar <alt>+f2 | 14:28 |
| bulmer | livingdaylight-> i believe alt+f2 | 14:28 |
| voraistos | livingdaylight: i gnome we have 3 main menus already :O | 14:28 |
| CapaH | Does anyone know a way to "remember" the locations of windows in Compiz? | 14:28 |
| martin_ | Någon som har någon erfarenhet av att koppla in dubbla monitorer i Ubuntu, kanske till och med med ett ati kort? | 14:28 |
| voraistos | Alt + F2 is alright too :p | 14:28 |
| CapaH | Or to otherwise make it easier than having to manually move all my windows back to their appropriate screens | 14:28 |
| livingdaylight | FourX4Luvn: alt+f2 is not the same as katapult | 14:28 |
| livingdaylight | voraistos: what 3? | 14:28 |
| stefg | RedB14: crap, so this won't work. Do you know what kernel version is installed? | 14:28 |
| superpigs | martin eng | 14:28 |
| RedB14 | yes | 14:28 |
| FourX4Luvn | livingdaylight: Ok. Been a long time since I've used KDE.. I thought it was just a simple 'run' dialog. | 14:29 |
| voraistos | livingdaylight: uh i dont remeber i tend to get rid of them :P | 14:29 |
| jamili | for the sound problem, when i try to test mny sounds error appears audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink: Resource busy or not available." apparently some app is using the sound can i fix this anyhow from the gui? though i'm reading some instruction atm | 14:29 |
| livingdaylight | FourX4Luvn: so, not sure what you meant? do i need compiz to work or am i fine with a regular non-compiz 3D-enabled desktop for that hack? | 14:29 |
| voraistos | but there is applications, places and system i think. | 14:29 |
| RedB14 | stefg 2.6.22-14 generic | 14:29 |
| livingdaylight | voraistos: what do you do wtih gnome? | 14:29 |
| FourX4Luvn | livingdaylight: He means the three menus that gnome has by default.. Programs, Places, and Settings I think.. something like that. | 14:29 |
| voraistos | nothing | 14:29 |
| stefg | RedB14: so try running sudo dpkg-reconfigure linux-image-2.6.22-14-generic | 14:30 |
| voraistos | well, i do use a lot of gnome-terminal | 14:30 |
| FourX4Luvn | livingdaylight: For what hack? | 14:30 |
| college | mmmmmmmmmmm hacking | 14:30 |
| livingdaylight | FourX4Luvn: the one you gave me, the opensuse look | 14:31 |
| FourX4Luvn | livingdaylight: Oh.. No.. that's just a new menu style. You can use it to replace the default gnome menus. No special hardware requirements or anything. | 14:31 |
| voraistos | college: you enjoy hacking? damnn some people are mad. It tends to give me headaches. | 14:32 |
| livingdaylight | FourX4Luvn: oh, great - that is what i was driving at earlier | 14:32 |
| Kibble | 'scuse the ignorance- can kde apps be installed on top of gnome? | 14:32 |
| RedB14 | stefg it give the same prob, permission denied, cannot creat /dev/null | 14:32 |
| FourX4Luvn | livingdaylight: Sorry. 06:30 here, and I've not slept.. :-P | 14:32 |
| jamili | can anyone help me with another thing? i was thinking to ubuntuforums the problem but i have no idea of what to search for :O FourX4Luvn wanna help? :P | 14:32 |
| voraistos | Kibble yeah | 14:32 |
| DShepherd | Kibble, yes. and your are excused | 14:32 |
| voraistos | but kde apps look like shit. | 14:32 |
| DShepherd | you* | 14:32 |
| RedB14 | but at the end updating /boot/grub/mùenu.lst ... done | 14:32 |
| FourX4Luvn | Kibble: Yes, they can | 14:32 |
| voraistos | because of Qt | 14:32 |
| jeanmass | hello | 14:32 |
| jeanmass | i've installed 7.10 on a brand new pc | 14:33 |
| Kibble | lol, i'm still trying to wrap my head around how linux is set up | 14:33 |
| FourX4Luvn | jamili: What's the problem? | 14:33 |
| jeanmass | wanted to use recovery partition to restore PC to fabric settings | 14:33 |
| superpigs | are there any good partitioning software other then sfdisk ? | 14:33 |
| dbmoodb | !meow | 14:33 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about meow - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 14:33 |
| jeanmass | but nothing happens when i press F9 during boot | 14:33 |
| jeanmass | ?? | 14:33 |
| stefg | RedB14: ah... now i see the problem...the /dev/ tree isn't there. Hmmm, seems it's easiest to reinstall, if taht's a fresh install | 14:33 |
| Troc_ | Superpigs: parted ? | 14:33 |
| jamili | FourX4Luvn, can't play multiple sounds at a time | 14:33 |
| livingdaylight | FourX4Luvn: ! ! ! you must be beat | 14:34 |

| RedB14 | stefg so you think reinstalling ubuntu is the best solution? | 14:34 |
| FourX4Luvn | livingdaylight: Getting there lol | 14:34 |
| Jupp2 | greencookie: yes | 14:34 |
| RedB14 | or the only one? | 14:34 |
| stefg | RedB14: yes, unless you don't want to spend hours hacking | 14:34 |
| FourX4Luvn | jamili: Ahh.. sorry bud... ONly thing I can think would be to just hit google hard. | 14:35 |
| college | cant he just restorer | 14:35 |
| Troc_ | superpigs: I think you can pass args to parted like you can to sfdisk | 14:35 |
| FourX4Luvn | jamili: It's the only thing I'd know to do | 14:35 |
| stefg | RedB14: and do a media check before you reinstall. maybe the CD is bad | 14:35 |
| voraistos | woohoo gparted keeps seg-faulting in 7.10 | 14:35 |
| jeanmass | i've just installed 7.10 to a new pc, i wanted to use recovery partition to restore PC to fabric settings, but nothing happens when i pres F9 during boot... ? | 14:35 |

| MasterShrek | dbmoodb, test it in a pm | 14:36 |

| Troc_ | Edoreld: google refit | 14:38 |
| MasterShrek | Edoreld, its quite easy really, unless you have some strange partition scheme | 14:38 |
| jamili | Edoreld, no the installation is fairly easy | 14:38 |
| jamili | well, it was for me since i used the whole hdd | 14:38 |
| Edoreld | aah i see | 14:38 |

| Edoreld | aah refit on google quite nice | 14:39 |
| jeanmass | FourX4Luvn: no it is installed on a specific part | 14:39 |
| livingdaylight | FourX4Luvn: did you say you can also launch it with alt+F1? | 14:39 |
| FourX4Luvn | livingdaylight: Good, good | 14:39 |
| FourX4Luvn | livingdaylight: Aye | 14:39 |
| Edoreld | What does boot mean? | 14:39 |
| Edoreld | in this sentence | 14:40 |

| IPGHOST | hi buddies, I have a low end desktop , P-II 400MHz & 64 MB RAM , how can I install ubuntu 7.10 on it to get rid of windows 2000 | 14:40 |
| bucatoamano | how i can restart usb service or usb printer ? | 14:40 |
| murlidhar | damn lagg!! | 14:40 |
| FourX4Luvn | livingdaylight: Hrm.. Did you remove the old menu? | 14:40 |
| livingdaylight | FourX4Luvn: sure | 14:40 |
| FourX4Luvn | jeanmass: Hrm.. NOt sure what to tell you. | 14:40 |
| Woodruff_ | MasterShrek : did it and it installed the package | 14:40 |
| jamili | good question i just realized i dont know how to explain boot | 14:40 |
| jamili | :P | 14:40 |
| Edoreld | hehe | 14:40 |
| MasterShrek | IPGHOST, i would go with the alternate install | 14:40 |
| Edoreld | np :P | 14:40 |
| JEFFmasterFLEX | IPGHOST: you need the alternate install disc, not the regular live cd | 14:40 |
| Woodruff_ | but i still hjave the problem | 14:40 |
| jamili | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boot | 14:41 |
| IPGHOST | JEFFmasterFLEX, i have to download the alternate disk ? any links? | 14:41 |
| Troc_ | Edoreld: boot means start | 14:41 |
| jamili | except that's foor boots.. haha | 14:41 |
| Edoreld | thx troc! | 14:41 |
| Edoreld | Now another question hehe | 14:41 |
| Woodruff_ | MasterShrek ? | 14:41 |
| FourX4Luvn | Boot = start up the computer | 14:41 |
| Edoreld | Is it advisable to install Ubuntu on my Mac, or does the default O.S give already enough? | 14:41 |
| jeanmass | if i use recovery DVD, will it get my recovery partition back? | 14:41 |
| MasterShrek | Woodruff_, nothgin appears in synaptic? | 14:42 |
| Edoreld | i mean, why not keep mac, and install ubuntu? | 14:42 |
| FourX4Luvn | Oops.. Didn't realize I"d scrolled up.. I think I was about 5 minutes late with that response. | 14:42 |
| Woodruff_ | nope | 14:42 |
| livingdaylight | FourX4Luvn: only criticism so far is the computer icon with 'Computer' ... did you change that? | 14:42 |
| JEFFmasterFLEX | IPGHOST: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download | 14:42 |
| MasterShrek | jeanmass, that is vendor-specific, and surely not an ubuntu question | 14:42 |
| stefg | IPGHOST: 64 MB of RAm limit your choices .... you can only run fluxbuntu reasonably on that machine. Consider a RAM-upgrade to 128 MB minimum and running xubuntu on that box | 14:42 |
| Woodruff_ | it just wrote to me Reading package list done | 14:42 |
| JEFFmasterFLEX | IPGHOST: there is a check mark at the bottom that says "for alternate disc check here" | 14:42 |
| Woodruff_ | in the terminal | 14:42 |
| FourX4Luvn | livingdaylight: No, I don't think it's possible to. | 14:42 |

| livingdaylight | FourX4Luvn: i wonder if you'll agree it aint too pretty :p | 14:43 |
| greencookie | Good morning MasterShrek :) | 14:43 |
| Troc_ | Edoreld: in my opinion you should install ubuntu if you want to learn quite a bit about computes, if you want to just use and forget then stick with OS X | 14:43 |
| FourX4Luvn | livingdaylight: Nah.. I didn't like it much at all. | 14:43 |
| livingdaylight | FourX4Luvn: a nice ubuntu icon would be preferable here, hehe | 14:43 |
| Edoreld | aah k then ubuntu is for me :) | 14:43 |
| MasterShrek | hello greencookie | 14:43 |
| Woodruff_ | thanks | 14:43 |
| Edoreld | cuz im studying computers ehe | 14:43 |
| jeanmass | thank you | 14:44 |
| IPGHOST | JEFFmasterFLEX, what about 6.06 LTS is taht lighter that 7.10 ? | 14:44 |
| stefg | IPGHOST: ubuntu, kubuntu need 256 MB to run, xubuntu will need 96 MB/128 MB. no point in installing aynthing other than fluxbuntu | 14:44 |
| FourX4Luvn | livingdaylight: There is a whole other menu though.. In the "add to panel" window you should now have two "main menu" entires.. and another one called "menu bar" | 14:44 |
| phil14 | Bonjour | 14:44 |
| chazco | hi... anyone here able to help me fix a problem with the internet following installing 7.10? One page doesnt work (it starts to load, then goes very slowly and stalls, but no errors)... the page works on 7.04, on another PC with the same Firefox + Settings. All other webpages appear to work. Its not ipv6 (disabled it, no change)... :) | 14:45 |
| Troc_ | chazco: all other pages work in 7.10 ? | 14:45 |
| greencookie | !gentoo | 14:45 |
| ubotu | Other !Linux distributions besides !Ubuntu include: Debian, Mepis (using !APT); RedHat, Fedora, SUSE, Mandriva (using !RPM); Gentoo, Slackware (using other packaging systems) | 14:45 |
| chazco | Troc_ yes | 14:45 |
| MasterShrek | chazco, any other network problems besides with firefox? | 14:45 |
| chazco | Nope, everything else seems fine | 14:45 |
| JEFFmasterFLEX | IPGHOST: i suggest going for Xubuntu, it will run smoothly on your box. | 14:46 |
| chazco | Same issue if i try this page in say Opera though | 14:46 |
| Edoreld | thx for help troc and the others, cya other day hehe :P | 14:46 |

| Troc_ | chazco: is it a flash / java applet based page / | 14:46 |
| chazco | Troc_ - nope, plain HTML + CSS | 14:46 |
| chazco | I've asked on here a few times, every time its left people baffeled | 14:47 |
| FourX4Luvn | VagaStorm: You just installed it, haven't done anything with it.. Just reinstall, you're not losing anything. | 14:47 |
| stefg | VagaStorm: you have no gui, so all you can do is edit a conf file | 14:47 |
| aguitel | i have some problem ,when i start ubuntu it say:authentication failed ,do you know how a fix this? | 14:47 |

| PuppiesOnAcid | How can I get the smallest possible ubuntu install? | 14:52 |
| JEFFmasterFLEX | PuppiesOnAcid: fluxbuntu | 14:52 |
| Troc_ | PuppiesOnAcid: I've found debbootstrap installs to be tiny :) | 14:52 |
| PuppiesOnAcid | WTF | 14:52 |
| PuppiesOnAcid | I just want like GNOME, if possible | 14:52 |
| PuppiesOnAcid | and NO extra programs | 14:52 |
| FourX4Luvn | Quite honestly, PuppiesOnAcid, if you're looking for a tiny install Ubuntu isn't really the distro for you. | 14:53 |
| PuppiesOnAcid | FourX4Luvn: What else can you recommend that would be the eeasiest? | 14:53 |
| Troc_ | hehe, try dsl | 14:53 |
| PuppiesOnAcid | I want something with a GUI though | 14:53 |
| Marine_ | playing sick today | 14:53 |

| FourX4Luvn | lol Marine_ You're caught now ;-) | 14:53 |
| Marine_ | heh busted | 14:54 |
| PuppiesOnAcid | JEFFmasterFLEX: how small is a fluxbuntu install? | 14:54 |
| mcp_ | FourX4Luvn, in this case, i'll not wait for the fix, but restart my machine instead. bye bye uptime-world-record | 14:54 |
| tuplanolla | PuppiesOnAcid: cli-install with alternate-cd | 14:54 |
| tuplanolla | then install gnome-core etc | 14:54 |
| FourX4Luvn | mcp_: Oh.. don't do that.. Just kill the process | 14:54 |
| === jotilmove is now known as jotil | ||
| JEFFmasterFLEX | PuppiesOnAcid: not quite sure to be honest. their live cd is only 300 megs though. that has to translate to less than half of an ubuntu install | 14:54 |

| CaBa\ | i am using ubuntu on a macbook and i want to define keys for the infraret remote control. but xev doesnt show keycodes for most of the buttons, but some kind of events. they work find with rhythmplayer, but i dont want to use them as media buttons... what app is responsible for that? | 14:56 |
| MasterShrek | DragonionS, you want emerald | 14:56 |
| jamili | this is so cool! installing realtek hd audio drivers and like 3000000 lines of text :O | 14:56 |
| FourX4Luvn | RivaeAerya: Yes, very normal. Welcome to a more stable world | 14:56 |
| RivaeAerya | FourX4Luvn: but Feisty had to update itself almost every day.. | 14:57 |

| jamili | where can i find alsaconf? | 14:57 |
| RivaeAerya | and Gutsy doesn't? | 14:57 |
| stefg | DragonionS: #kubuntu , and you might consider avoiding the single character line spam | 14:57 |
| MasterShrek | CaBa\, i think if you type dmesg after hitting the key, it will give you a command for setkeycodes | 14:57 |
| FourX4Luvn | hrm | 14:58 |
| CaBa\ | MasterShrek: nope | 14:58 |
| DragonionS | Depends: libwnck18 (>= 2.15.90) | 14:58 |

| aguitel | i have some problem ,when i start ubuntu it say:authentication failed ,do you know how a fix this? | 15:00 |
| Jupp2 | aguitel, when you start ubuntu or when you try to log in? | 15:00 |
| Niteye | i gave a password for root, and now it doesnt even prompt for the local user pass anymore when doing sudo? | 15:01 |
| aguitel | Jupp2: when i start ubuntu | 15:01 |
| _ruben | Niteye: the passwd is cached for a few minutes | 15:01 |
| aguitel | Jupp2: i cannot login | 15:01 |
| Niteye | how do i empty the cache to see if all is well | 15:01 |
| sharpie | i'm installing winxp on virtualbox but the installation is EXTREMELY slow (like, it's been running for about an hour and still says it'll finish in 33 minutes) | 15:02 |

| _ruben | or man sudo .. forgot which one | 15:02 |
| CaBa\ | MasterShrek: but the keycode business does the trick, thanks | 15:02 |
| Vlet | sharpie: could your XP cd be busted? | 15:02 |
| sharpie | Vlet: no | 15:02 |

| _ruben | clamav | 15:03 |
| Jupp2 | aguitel, that sounds like you have the wrong password. Try loggin in as root then change the password for that user | 15:03 |
| Whitor | thanks _ruben | 15:03 |
| Vlet | sharpie: you may be better off asking in #vbox | 15:03 |
| stefg | tech0007: please don't spam. it's firestarter who does it, there's an option to stop that | 15:04 |
| tech0007 | stefg: where in firestarter? | 15:04 |
| aguitel | Jupp2: before i enter my username there is a banner tht say authentication failed | 15:04 |
| Vlet | tech0007: admin control panels | 15:05 |
| tech0007 | Vlet: is that in firestarter? | 15:05 |
| FourX4Luvn | aguitel: Don't know if this will help you or not, but this page has what sounds like your problem on it: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/upgrade-ubuntu-610-edgy-eft-to-ubuntu-704-feisty-fawn-2.html | 15:05 |
| Niteye | i commented a line in "/etc/sudoers" which allowed to become root without the pass if the user was in the admin group (i changed this). now when you do "sudo something", it simply doesnt seem to do anything (not even a 'permission denied' error), i assume this is normal? | 15:06 |
| Doraa | hi | 15:06 |
| Vlet | tech0007: oh, I'm sorry, I thought you asked where IS farestarter :) | 15:06 |
| Vlet | tech0007: look around in the options, and maybe try looking in the manpage to see how to turn it off | 15:06 |
| MasterShrek | Niteye, does the command run or not? | 15:07 |
| Jupp2 | FourX4Luvn, aguitel is getting the error before he even logs in | 15:07 |

| swatF1RESTORM | MasterShrek, purely experimental. how would i go about disabling my splash from the initramfs prompt. | 15:16 |
| _ruben | duke3d: its most likely due to powersaving (assuming its reported lower than expected) | 15:16 |
| MasterShrek | duke3d, its probably scaling your cpu frequency because your system isnt under heavy load | 15:17 |

| Dr_Willis | !wubi | 15:24 |
| ubotu | wubi is an unofficial Ubuntu installer for Windows users - more info is at http://www.cutlersoftware.com/ubuntusetup/wubi/en-US/index.html | 15:24 |
| swatF1RESTORM | any ideas why i wouldn't be able to reinstall using the live CD? I get a 'can't create swap' something or other when I try to install. | 15:24 |
| Dralid | Hey, I'm looking for a conferencing tool that will allow two people to share (ubuntu) desktops over the net. So that we can collaborate on some design stuff. Any suggestions? | 15:24 |
| Doraa | :] | 15:24 |
| Dr_Willis | swatF1RESTORM you dont have your current swap partition set to be swap for the new install perhaps. | 15:25 |
| Dr_Willis | Dralid vnc lets you do that. It may be a bit sluggish depending on what programs you are running with it. | 15:25 |
| ubuntu | hello, how to remove grub and boot to vista normaly? | 15:25 |
| RivaeAerya | Guys, for some reason, the Ubuntu default theme is the easiest on the eyes of all of them (blue, for example, is less easier on the eyes) | 15:25 |
| novato_br | tell me S.W.A.T is the best policial force of the world, but they don't know about B.O.P.E | 15:25 |
| RivaeAerya | but why is it so... ugly? (and why do you have naked girls in the ubuntu-calenders...) | 15:25 |
| novato_br | hhahaahaahaahahaahahaa | 15:25 |
| MasterShrek | RivaeAerya, thats a matter of personal opinion | 15:26 |
| === dreamcoder is now known as Dream_Coder | ||
| Niteye | for some reason i hate the default orange | 15:26 |
| Dr_Willis | RivaeAerya its 'art' :) | 15:26 |
| kakoonia | hey.. | 15:26 |
| Niteye | RivaeAerya: how do i open the calendar? | 15:26 |
| noelferreira | i use a hostname from dyndns.org and it seems that it can't be resolved in gutsy. Everything works ok with feisty. Anyone experienced something similar? | 15:26 |
| * FourX4Luvn perks up | 15:26 | |
| Niteye | whereis it | 15:26 |
| FourX4Luvn | naked girls? | 15:26 |
| FourX4Luvn | ;-) | 15:26 |
| RivaeAerya | Niteye: install ubuntu-monthly or something like that | 15:26 |
| RivaeAerya | the monthly wallpaper | 15:26 |
| RivaeAerya | it has a naked girl in it.. | 15:26 |
| FourX4Luvn | hrm | 15:26 |
| Dr_Willis | !find ubuntu-calander | 15:26 |
| swatF1RESTORM | Dr_Willis, i'm not sure but I'm trying to reformat everything and install fresh. How do i check my current swap partition? | 15:26 |

| PHRED_ | CHICKS | 15:26 |
| JEFFmasterFLEX | PHRED_: agreed | 15:27 |
| RivaeAerya | Dr_Willis: you made a spelling mistake | 15:27 |
| Dr_Willis | swatF1RESTORM you can just remove the partitions leaving the HD unnalocated. and let the installer set up the partitions. Thats how i normally do it. | 15:27 |
| Vorondil | G'morning all, I'm having trouble with aMule. When I run it from a terminal, I get this: http://pastebin.com/m3f44060b It ran when I first installed it, but it wouldn't connect to anything. On a whim, I tried running it as root to eliminate any permissions problems, but since then, it just aborts with that error. Any ideas? | 15:27 |
| Dr_Willis | !find ubuntu-cal | 15:27 |
| RivaeAerya | !find ubuntu-calender | 15:27 |
| ubotu | Found: ubuntu-calendar, ubuntu-calendar-december, ubuntu-calendar-february, ubuntu-calendar-january, ubuntu-calendar-march (and 2 others) | 15:27 |
| ubotu | Package/file ubuntu-calender does not exist in gutsy | 15:27 |
| RivaeAerya | it's the march one | 15:27 |
| JEFFmasterFLEX | RivaeAerya: is nudity insulting to you or something? | 15:28 |
| kdubois | ubuntu-calendar | 15:28 |
| Niteye | RivaeAerya: printscreen please | 15:28 |
| Dr_Willis | RivaeAerya the package description says its 'artistic representation' - if you dont like it. remove it. :) | 15:28 |
| * Dr_Willis goes back to making his PORN Icon set. | 15:28 | |

| JEFFmasterFLEX | Dr_Willis: i bet Banshee would make an interesting porn icon | 15:29 |
| Matic`Makovec | Hey there. How can I check the i/o stuff written on disk? | 15:29 |
| FourX4Luvn | Hrm.. Ok, so why, if it's the calendar, is there no calendar? | 15:29 |
| JEFFmasterFLEX | Matic`Makovec: you want to test hard disk i/o? | 15:29 |
| FourX4Luvn | Or is that the joke? Can't see the calendar because you're staring at the chick. | 15:30 |
| toxicfume | i want to install ubuntu and i have 2 GB of ram, how much should swap space be? | 15:30 |
| swatF1RESTORM | Dr_Willis, running off the live CD right now and trying to perform the guided install in which I selected to format the whole HD. Get | 15:30 |
| Matic`Makovec | JEFFmasterFLEX, yes...and well, check them out mostly...for fun really :x | 15:30 |
| Niteye | i installed the calendar, how do i start it | 15:30 |
| FourX4Luvn | It's a optical allusion.. Me gets it | 15:30 |
| RivaeAerya | Niteye: just change your wallpaper | 15:30 |
| Alyxander | hey guys did i miss much | 15:30 |
| JEFFmasterFLEX | Matic`Makovec: the program is hdparm. | 15:30 |
| Matic`Makovec | Thank you, JEFFmasterFLEX | 15:31 |
| Niteye | oh | 15:31 |
| toxicfume | how much swap space must have i have if i have 2GB of RAM, please anyone? | 15:31 |
| Niteye | yum | 15:31 |
| kdubois | toxicfume: 2 to 4 gigabytes is generally recommended. however, your with that much ram, your swap space will be lightly used unless you decide to run a ton a programs | 15:31 |
| RivaeAerya | :P | 15:31 |
| swatF1RESTORM | Dr_Willis, it gets to 15% and then errors out "Failed to creat a swap space' The creation of swap space in partion #5 of IDE1 master (hda) failed. | 15:31 |
| toxicfume | kdubois: so do i need it at all | 15:31 |
| Niteye | good golly, the woman is naked | 15:31 |
| RivaeAerya | Niteye: told ya.. | 15:31 |
| Dr_Willis | swatF1RESTORM that sounds like the HD may be going bad... | 15:31 |
| FourX4Luvn | toxicfume: General rule of thumb is swap=twice the amount of ram installed. I have 2 GB and have VERY rarely even had a single MB of swap be used though. | 15:31 |
| kdubois | toxicfume: its always good to have it, even if you don't need it, and have HDD space to spare | 15:32 |
| RivaeAerya | FourX4Luvn: if you're curious, install it as well.. | 15:32 |
| swatF1RESTORM | Dr_Willis, well damn the bad luck =( | 15:32 |
| toxicfume | FourX4Luvn: okay thanks | 15:32 |
| FourX4Luvn | toxicfume: I'd definately install it.. but maybe like 500MB or something. | 15:32 |
| toxicfume | kdubois: and what partition type should the OS partition be? ext2 or ext3? | 15:32 |
| ubuntu | ciao | 15:32 |
| kdubois | toxicfume: ext3 | 15:33 |
| FourX4Luvn | RivaeAerya: I did, but I don't see any dates. Just the wallpaper with the woman. | 15:33 |
| noelferreira | i use a hostname from dyndns.org and it seems that it can't be resolved in gutsy. Everything works ok with feisty. Anyone experienced something similar? | 15:33 |
| david_ | can anyone help me with this issue: I need to change hostname but when I do xauth breaks, I cant seem to get the new hostname added to xauth. im admittedly a complete noob on linux. | 15:33 |
| kahrytan | Quick: what's the command for UUID look up on partitions? | 15:33 |
| Veovis | is it just me or have they been no updates for gutsy in a while? for example, gimp 2.4 was released 2 weeks ago, but no packages for gutys yet | 15:33 |
| profanephobia | my /boot dir was removed.. can it be restore to default or something without having to reinstall gutsy | 15:33 |
| RivaeAerya | FourX4Luvn: yep. i meant the ubuntu monthly wallpaper. it's a "calender", as in you rip the paper off the calender and you get the next picture | 15:34 |
| FourX4Luvn | Ahh.. Me gets it | 15:34 |
| RivaeAerya | but why do they put a naked woman in a distribution even kids use? :P | 15:34 |
| Musta_Surma | I have a file to be downloaded but the url is like http://..../?path=&download=filename.zip ... Is it possible to download it using wget? I tried but it downloads an html file | 15:35 |
| === _jason is now known as jrib | ||
| wraund | profanephobia: i did something similar, luckily the next ubuntu beta was out and i upgraded, installing a new boot, and kernel. Or you can try going into synaptic package manager and somehow reinstalling grub or boot files? | 15:35 |

| toxicfume | thanks a lot guys! off to install ubuntu | 15:35 |
| RivaeAerya | FourX4Luvn: true, | 15:35 |

| RivaeAerya | wrong place | 15:36 |
| wraund | profanephobia: well i was on feisty and upgraded to gutsy beta, so it downloaded the latest gutsy kernel with the upgrade, in doing that, the update-manager automatically created the boot files | 15:36 |
| RivaeAerya | JEFFmasterFLEX: sorry, then. didn't mean to | 15:37 |
| wraund | profanephobia: as a result this system is a year old but only has 2 kernels :P | 15:37 |

| keegan | bastid_raZor: thanks | 16:18 |
| iresprite | MasterShrek: though that only seems to give me the requests, not any errors. | 16:18 |
| bastid_raZor | keegan, i'm looking for it now. | 16:18 |
| Vorondil | G'morning all, I'm having trouble with aMule. When I run it from a terminal, I get this: http://pastebin.com/m3f44060b It ran when I first installed it, but it wouldn't connect to anything. On a whim, I tried running it as root to eliminate any permissions problems, but since then, it just aborts with that error. Any ideas? | 16:18 |
| keegan | bastid_raZor: okay, ill try too , it shouldnt be difficult | 16:18 |
| MasterShrek | iresprite, sorry, that was my only guess :P | 16:18 |
| bastid_raZor | keegan, kdebluetooth.. there are several others you'll need | 16:19 |
| Karti | iresprite: I just used the Generic pl6 driver, changed some settings so I could use colour and it worked | 16:19 |
| bastid_raZor | keegan, i found it by searching kde bluetooth in synaptic | 16:19 |
| rhalff | any of you play enemy territory ? is it possible to play it standalone ? | 16:19 |
| keegan | thanks bastid_raZor , | 16:19 |

| toxicfume | hi all | 16:20 |
| Esteth | If i use gparted to repartition a hard drive so i shrink the second partition and grow the third partition backwards, will this take a long time, or will it be quick? | 16:20 |
| jrib | Ax-Ax: have you read that? it's a mess of edgy and feisty sources, there isn't a single gutsy repo on there | 16:20 |
| Ax-Ax | jrib: lol, i added them :( | 16:21 |
| Pici | Esteth: Is there data on the drive? | 16:21 |
| toxicfume | i just installed ubuntu on my computer, and upon logging into it for the first time, i had my data partition mounted on the desktop with a really nice hard drive icon, but after i installed my video card drivers and some updates and then restarted the system, that same icon became an ugly old fat drive icon...why did this happen? | 16:21 |
| jrib | !easysource > Ax-Ax (read the private message from ubotu) | 16:21 |
| Esteth | Pici: The third partition is practically full, the second partition has around 20g of 100g free | 16:21 |
| iresprite | karti: the p16 driver? what kind of printer was this? | 16:21 |
| === please_hel1 is now known as Dr_vOn_pSiE | ||
| jrib | Ax-Ax: make a fresh new gutsy one. What kernel are you running by the way? (uname -r) | 16:21 |
| xplatinum | Is there a way to stop xorg.conf from resetting everytime I restart my computer ? I was able to add the 1360x768 resolution through the file but whenever I restart the computer the file gets replaced. | 16:22 |
| Ax-Ax | 2.6.22-9-generic | 16:22 |
| Pici | Esteth: It may take a long time, It took me 4 hours to resize a bunch of paritions on my 80gb 5400rpm drive. | 16:22 |
| iresprite | ugh. now when I try to connect to the printer via windows, I get "Access denied, unable to connect". | 16:22 |
| Esteth | Pici: Ok, thanks. It would be faster to move my home partition to a new hard drive then, i assume. | 16:23 |
| neverblue | xplatinum, how are you changing the file, whats the command ? | 16:23 |
| Niteye | i assume the partitioner moves files if theyre physical locations make it a problem to repartition? | 16:23 |
| Pici | Esteth: It might indeed. | 16:23 |
| JonkoPa | How do I configure my timezone? | 16:23 |

| zombie_monkey | it's annoying | 16:27 |
| xplatinum | how* | 16:27 |
| zombie_monkey | why does it alwasy do that anyway? | 16:27 |
| neverblue | xplatinum, did you use gksudo or sudo ? | 16:27 |
| zombie_monkey | I mean it usually eventually fixes itself... | 16:27 |
| xplatinum | neverblue: sudo | 16:27 |

| Niekk | when will the new Ubuntu (Linux) kernel be released ? (The one that will fix the random freezes :P ) | 16:28 |
| julius | Niekk: unless its a massive issue not for a long while | 16:29 |
| jeffrey | ? | 16:29 |
| neverblue | !patience | 16:29 |
| ubotu | The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines | 16:29 |
| julius | i havent had one crash yet due to the kernel | 16:29 |
| rsk | jeffrey: response about what? | 16:29 |
| Niekk | julius: I think freezes ARE a massive issue ? :O | 16:29 |
| julius | jeffrey: what is your question? | 16:29 |
| xplatinum | neverblue: I should have used gksudo ? | 16:29 |
| Alyxander | hey anyone still have an active modem? | 16:29 |
| julius | Niekk: massive as in you are not the only one :P | 16:29 |
| toxicfume | can someone please help me | 16:29 |
| Alyxander | toxicfume whats up | 16:29 |
| Niekk | julius: I am not the only one :P Some guys I know have it too, and they say it is in the kernel .. | 16:30 |
| Mitch_ | What will happen if I completly remove my Ubuntu partiton, and expand my Windows? Since Grub is on it | 16:30 |
| julius | Niekk: if its a single uncommon piece of hardware that doesnt like a newer kernel driver you will just have to patch or work around it yourself :P | 16:30 |
| julius | ah ic | 16:30 |
| neverblue | xplatinum, as long as you use either, the file will be saved... | 16:30 |
| Hex_101 | Bonste1: you still there? | 16:30 |
| julius | Mitch_: you will need to reinstall the winxp mbr bootloader | 16:30 |
| hendrixski | hey. you know how mplayer will play one file after another if you pass it a file that is one file per line? Is there any way to generate that kind of a file for multiple directories with ls? | 16:30 |
| xplatinum | neverblue: any idea how to check why a file gets replaced on reboot ? | 16:30 |
| Bonste1 | Hex_101: yea | 16:30 |

| Hex_101 | Am i okay to post a link to another IRC server for support on a other issue? | 16:31 |
| Mitch_ | eek, I don't exactly have it :\ | 16:31 |

| spin_ | ciao | 16:31 |
| Alyxander | toxicfume ati graphics driver? | 16:31 |
| julius | Mitch_: well | 16:31 |
| jeffrey | hi guys | 16:31 |
| keegan | when i installed ubuntu and visited a site that used java it gave me an option to intall gcj or a closed source software. how do i get that option again cause gcj dosnt seem to work fine on a site i visit. and now if i install java from java site it dosnt work either . i have java enabled in my browser | 16:31 |
| jeffrey | im a newb to linux | 16:31 |
| toxicfume | Alyxander: no, nvidia | 16:31 |
| julius | Mitch_: expand the windows partition and then installl grub to the MBR from a live cd | 16:31 |
| adelie | Is there a way to check total traffic since uptime? | 16:31 |
| rsk | jeffrey: you told that already | 16:31 |
| Alyxander | toxicfume remove the driver and see if it bings it back | 16:31 |
| jeffrey | i wasnt sure i was in the channel before | 16:31 |
| jeffrey | sorry | 16:31 |
| julius | Mitch_: come back to us on IRC to get instructions to install grub, it isnt as easy as it should be on the live cd | 16:31 |
| Mitch_ | k thanks | 16:32 |
| toxicfume | Alyxander: but i remove the driver then my video performance will decrease | 16:32 |
| Mitch_ | I think i will just wait, to borrow the XP cd from a friend. | 16:32 |
| Alyxander | keegan sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras | 16:32 |
| keegan | Alyxander: thanks | 16:32 |
| Alyxander | yup | 16:32 |
| xplatinum | neverblue: 1) edit the xorg.conf - save 2) restart 3) 1360x768 is there 4) restart again - back to 1024x768 with a replaced xorg.conf file. -------- I set the refresh rate in nvidia-settings to 60 but the screens/res panel in administration says i'm in 76hz :S | 16:33 |
| Alyxander | toxicfume ok then change the icon manually | 16:33 |
| julius | Mitch_: either way will work | 16:33 |
| julius | just means it will go grub->xp | 16:33 |
| toxicfume | Alyxander: can you instruct me on how to do that | 16:33 |
| neverblue | xplatinum, you dont have to explain it to me 3-4 times, I got it the first, tahts why I am helping.... | 16:33 |
| jeffrey | Is this channel mainly for support ? | 16:33 |
| Pici | jeffrey: Yes. | 16:33 |
| spamoom | Hi there guys, I'm in desperate need of help. I just installed ubuntu due to XP being a pain in the arse. And I've noticed that my sound card isn't detected. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToSetupSoundCards didnt do anything for me | 16:33 |
| julius | jeffrey:yes | 16:33 |
| Mitch_ | julius, ty | 16:33 |
| Pici | jeffrey: Mainly/Only. Chatter in #ubuntu-offtopic | 16:33 |
| julius | spamoon: what soundcard do you have | 16:33 |
| Alyxander | toxicfume its easy right clicnt on the icon you want to change and hit properties | 16:33 |
| xplatinum | neverblue: lol ok cuz with "(but I think your imaging things" i though you were saying I was imaginating things :P | 16:34 |
| julius | lspci | grep AC | 16:34 |
| jeffrey | Thanks Pici | 16:34 |
| spamoom | julius: Creative Soundblaster Xfi Platinum | 16:34 |
| julius | ouch | 16:34 |
| julius | creative have their own closed source drivers | 16:34 |
| neverblue | xplatinum, but just to let you know something that I know, you are imaging things, there is no way something is just going to change your xorg.conf, you had to have setup something to do it, a computer doesnt think/perform actions that itself deems necessary | 16:34 |
| toxicfume | Alyxander: okay, and which location is the place where all the icons are kept in ubuntu? | 16:34 |
| adelie | how do I check total traffic since uptime? I am trying to setup apt-mirror, and it has been downloading for 3 days. gnome-system-monitor only tracks traffic over a limited period of time. How do I see all of it? | 16:34 |
| Bonste1 | is frostwire not loading up for any1 else? | 16:34 |
| Alyxander | toxicfume the click on the icon in the properties menu | 16:34 |
| julius | you will have to download them yourself, they are installable but most people dont use em since linux is meant to be open :) + closed drivers arent that great | 16:34 |
| julius | then again the nvidia ones arent too bad | 16:34 |
| Alyxander | toxicfume it will default to that location | 16:34 |
| toxicfume | Alyxander: it doesn't :/ | 16:35 |
| xplatinum | neverblue: a bug in ubuntu could do it (maybe)... a conflict between nvidia driver and the way ubuntu is setup | 16:35 |
| thyx | Dedibox livrée ;) merci bien. Bonne soirée | 16:35 |
| orionr | is there a way to get the nvidia-settings to detect what kind of monitor you have? | 16:35 |
| aglet | I've got a problem with Gnome startup -- panel encountered a problem while loading a bunch of things: http://pastie.caboo.se/114220 -- I've tried resetting gnome config & indeed starting with a completely fresh home dir, nothing seems to help | 16:35 |
| MTecknology | what's it mean if I can log into failsafe gnome and everything is perfect, but logging into normal gnome makes the windows manager royally screwed? i see the windows split in half w/ each half being filled separately... | 16:35 |
| toxicfume | Alyxander: it just takes me to the desktop when i browse for the icon | 16:35 |
| julius | spamoon: and if you missed all of the above just head up to www.creative.com and grab the latest binary drivers | 16:35 |
| spamoom | julius: hmm, I'm not too bothered about open source aslong as it works =/. Lack of sound is really bad | 16:35 |
| neverblue | xplatinum, I havent seen anyone else have you imaginary issue yet :) | 16:35 |
| julius | spamoon: i hear that! i use the nvidia closed source since they are great | 16:35 |
| orionr | I swaped the cables on my monitors because i was running dual and something was messed up with one of the vga cables. THen i reconfigured my display with nvidia-settings but for some reason one of my monitors is not taking up the hole screen | 16:36 |
| spamoom | julius:I've looked at their site but they only give out the 64bit edition, which is kinda bad cause I need the 32 bit | 16:36 |
| orionr | Ah i just fixed it i hit the auto button on the monitor lol nvm woot | 16:37 |
| jeffrey | Can anyone recommend a application launcher for the 64 bit ubuntu, I come from XP and used RK Launcher. Is there anything similar ? | 16:37 |
| julius | spamoon: are you sure? that sounds very very wierd | 16:37 |
| Alyxander | toxicfume either /usr/share/pixmaps or /usr/share/icons/ | 16:37 |
| toxicfume | Alyxander: thanks so much :) | 16:38 |
| spamoom | julius: Positive, I would have at least though they would do the 32-bit first as it is the most popular, but alas they didnt. | 16:38 |

| Alyxander | toxicfume np | 16:38 |
| adelie | xplatinum neverblue - one great thing though is that when setups do change your xorg.conf, your old file becomes xorg.conf.backup. just delete the broken one, and "cp xorg.conf.backup xorg.conf". Or, if there were no special custom setup options, debconf xorg will make a new file the way the live CD would have done it, basically. OR if you like the simple GUI way, copy the xorg.conf file off a live CD after boot. it had to make one on startup anyway | 16:38 |
| IdleOne | !offtopic | Niteye | 16:38 |

| sanguisdex | does any one know of a chanel where I could get meld support? | 16:38 |
| IdleOne | #meld | 16:38 |
| neverblue | adelie but why is it being re-written on just his second reboot.... | 16:39 |
| spamoom | julius: sudo modprobe snd-sb16 I got that off the ubuntu site, but didnt do anything =/ | 16:39 |
| sanguisdex | IdleOne: that is not an active chanel | 16:39 |
| adelie | neverblue every boot? | 16:39 |
| jeffrey | Can anyone recommend a application launcher for the 64 bit ubuntu, I come from XP and used RK Launcher. Is there anything similar ? | 16:39 |
| IdleOne | sanguisdex: it was a wild guess | 16:39 |
| neverblue | adelie, that is not what i said :) | 16:39 |
| julius | spamoom: is that module for your card or for the older soundblaster's | 16:40 |
| l | #ubuntu-it | 16:40 |
| Pici | jeffrey: kiba-dock or awn. Both are beta I believe. | 16:40 |
| PuppiesAtWork | How do I make X.org work on Fluxbuntu? I gave it a screen resolution when I was first installing that doesn't work, and so I changed it to "1024x768" in xorg.conf, but it still won't work | 16:40 |
| spamoom | julius: thats the thing, im not too sure | 16:40 |
| PuppiesAtWork | THis is on a macbook pro, widescreen | 16:40 |
| sanguisdex | IdleOne: that was the first thing I checked | 16:40 |
| PuppiesAtWork | don't have any drivers installed yet | 16:40 |

| adelie | mteknology try installing restricted drivers. I had the same problem with a grForceFX 5900 | 16:40 |
| PuppiesAtWork | does anyone know something i can try to make X show up? | 16:40 |
| Dr_Willis | !fixres | 16:40 |
| adelie | puppiesatwork startx | 16:40 |
| ubotu | The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type « sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart » in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto | 16:40 |
| julius | PuppiesAtWork: what is the error X gives you | 16:41 |

| NNTB | has linux reached the point where a GUI has compleate functionality over the text based UI? | 16:41 |
| spamoom | julius: <-- bit of a linux noob | 16:41 |
| Alyxander | NNTB yeah! | 16:41 |
| kjcole | I'm having a problem with third-party print drivers, cups and apparmor (I think). First I was getting errors that appear in https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/133818 | 16:41 |
| julius | spamoom: no | 16:41 |

| Alyxander | yes it is i need to load all my wine stuff so i can drop windows like a bad habbit | 16:43 |
| NNTB | i used to try out ubuntu and sabayon (2 diffrent distros of linux) i found both rather not working well with my laptop... | 16:43 |
| kjcole | (The printer -- a Canon imageRunner 8500 -- worked fine under Breezy, Dapper, Edgy and Feisty. Gutsy broke it.) | 16:43 |
| NNTB | aparntly they dont like my network card | 16:43 |
| respuesta | Can anyone help me migrate from Thunderbird to Evolution? | 16:43 |

| iresprite | okay... | 16:44 |
| aglet | does anyone run Ubuntu with their home directory as something other than /home/username? It seems GNOME objects to this | 16:44 |
| MasterShrek | NNTB, definately better than 6.10 | 16:44 |

| kl4m | I have a quick one: is the Ubuntu samba package syslog-enabled? | 16:44 |
| bulmer | kjcole-> did you look around /var/spool/cups ? | 16:44 |
| Alyxander | NNTB mine is a brodcom and 7.10 works out of the box with no tweak | 16:44 |
| MasterShrek | NNTB, my broadcom works jsut fine in gutsy (7.10) but u need to install the firmware to use it | 16:44 |
| NNTB | HP ze2308wm | 16:44 |
| spamoom | julius: Actually now that I think about it, the sound worked on an older version of ubuntu I think. Could 7.10 have anything to do with it? | 16:44 |
| kjcole | bulmer: empty | 16:44 |
| julius | cube: use samba | 16:45 |
| cube | ty | 16:45 |
| NNTB | i am told it works with a wrapper on most distro's but i had so many issues trying to get it to work. | 16:45 |
| julius | cube: that is the windows networking protocol, while NFS would be faster wouldnt make much diff and samba has better permissions + compatability | 16:45 |
| iresprite | okay | 16:45 |
| iresprite | E [05/Nov/2007:11:43:02 -0500] PID 8388 (/usr/lib/cups/filter/rastertoz600) stopped with status 127! | 16:45 |

| NNTB | oh | 16:45 |
| iresprite | I got this after doing # lpr test.txt | 16:45 |
| julius | spamoom: find the name of the module used for your card then type dmesg | grep *modulename* | 16:45 |
| Alyxander | NNTB after i installed 7.10 i didnt use ndiswrapper it just worked | 16:45 |
| bulmer | kjcole-> well locate the cups config file and see if thats where it puts things /var/spool/cups | 16:45 |
| cube | julius: so i could enable sharing with the windows computers the other users have? | 16:45 |
| Alyxander | and is working right now | 16:45 |

| respuesta | Does anyone know how I can migrate Thunderbird profiles to Evolution? | 16:46 |
| julius | cube: yes | 16:46 |
| MasterShrek | NNTB, its still a bit sketchy in 7.04, 7.10 works good, and 8.04 will work even better when the b43 driver is out | 16:46 |
| cube | niffty | 16:46 |
| Hex_101 | NNTB: in a short time, linux has become a proper rival to windows :) | 16:46 |

| Alyxander | MasterShrek ok now im confused your talking build versions of ubuntu ? | 16:47 |
| kjcole | bulmer: When printing, the printer goes to a busy state for a while and returns to a ready state (expected behavior). This is with tools that watch the printer rather than CUPS queue. | 16:47 |

| spamoom | problem is though sudo modprobs sb returns FATAL : Module sb not found. | 16:49 |
| xplatinum | How do I fine tune the special effects in Ubuntu when using the "extra" setting ? I suppose it's some sort of compiz panel ? I like the extras but i'd prefer not having the wobbly windows | 16:49 |

| NNTB | is there a way to see a FPS counter in kde? | 16:50 |

| Lawke | Hi, I think I just installed ndiswrapper with success, but how do I install the windows wifi driver to use it?? | 16:50 |
| MasterShrek | xplatinum, i believe if you apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager you can mess with that kinda stuff | 16:50 |
| NNTB | my card works better for dx | 16:50 |
| rsk | NNTB: not possible | 16:50 |
| NNTB | ? | 16:50 |
| cube | xplatinum: if you don't have advance desktop settings install the configuration part of compiz-fusion | 16:50 |
| NNTB | isnt there directX suport in linux? | 16:50 |
| rsk | ? | 16:50 |
| rsk | no | 16:50 |
| cube | xplatinum: then you will have all the options | 16:50 |
| keegan | MasterShrek: yes but i dont know if its the right one | 16:50 |
| NNTB | why? | 16:51 |
| no_mind | any doc which specifies how to compile ubuntu from sources ? | 16:51 |
| xplatinum | cube: MasterShrek: thanks will try that | 16:51 |
| rsk | NNTB: cause windows dosen't want it that way | 16:51 |
| MasterShrek | no_mind, why would you want to? | 16:51 |
| NNTB | cant dx run in wine? | 16:51 |
| julius | spamoom: i havent had much experience with the cards myself, maybe make a post in the ubuntu forums, under hardware or whatever not in gen help or abs beginners | 16:51 |
| rsk | yep | 16:51 |
| MasterShrek | NNTB, i believe so | 16:51 |

| Lawke | Hi, I think I just installed ndiswrapper with success, but how do I install the windows wifi driver to use it?? | 16:51 |
| keegan | MasterShrek: its some VESA generic | 16:51 |
| spamoom | julius: thanks will do that. Cheers for you help | 16:52 |
| NNTB | so couldnt ubuntu's gui run in dx in wine? | 16:52 |
| no_mind | MasterShrek, maybe i will replace the kernel | 16:52 |
| MasterShrek | keegan, then you havent installed it | 16:52 |
| rsk | NNTB: nope | 16:52 |
| NNTB | -.-;; | 16:52 |
| rsk | NNTB: gnome is not a windows app | 16:52 |
| keegan | MasterShrek: how do i find the right driver | 16:52 |
| MasterShrek | no_mind, you wouldnt compile ubuntu from source to do that | 16:52 |
| rsk | therefore it can't run in wine | 16:52 |
| NNTB | gnome? | 16:52 |
| rsk | yes | 16:52 |
| NNTB | isnt ubuntu kde? | 16:52 |
| iresprite | Is there an easy way to check if a printer is correctly connected? | 16:52 |
| MasterShrek | NNTB, kubuntu is | 16:52 |
| rsk | ubuntu uses gnome by default | 16:52 |
| rsk | you mut be thinking of kubuntu | 16:52 |
| Pici | NNTB: Kubuntu uses KDE, Ubuntu uses Gnome (by defaults) | 16:52 |
| keegan | MasterShrek: there are two drivers showing on my graphics card tab | 16:53 |

| NNTB | like a pc that uses the cell brodband engine? | 16:54 |
| MasterShrek | no_mind, i dont think u have any idea what you are talking about, but there is a way to install the source packages of software, although if you want to do a lot of compiling and stuff, i would use a distro like gentoo or slackware | 16:54 |
| no_mind | NNTB, yup ubuntu supports ppc | 16:54 |

| Wisteso | usually you have to install the M$ product first since it installs it's own boot crap | 17:13 |
| Detox_at_Work | Master.. grub endry to point to ovista? | 17:13 |
| Dr_Willis | Edoreld its best to partion, install windows on the first part of the HD. and Linux on the 2nd part | 17:13 |
| gnomefreak | Edoreld, if possible you want to install windows first and ubuntu 2nd | 17:13 |
| Edoreld | why windows 1st? | 17:13 |
| MasterShrek | Edoreld, i would suggest if you plan on installing windows, do it first, otherwise you have to go through a workaround to get grub back | 17:13 |
| kakoonia | Edoreld: you better instal windows before you install ubuntu, that way the grub(boot menu list wont disapear) | 17:13 |
| Dr_Willis | !grub | 17:13 |
| ubotu | grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto | 17:13 |
| Hex_101 | windows doesnt play well with others.. | 17:13 |
| MasterShrek | Edoreld, windows will take over your mbr | 17:13 |

| Edoreld | aah i see | 17:14 |

| gnomefreak | Edoreld, windows will wipe mbr and not care if another os is installed | 17:14 |

| illusion-1 | hello | 17:15 |
| Edoreld | If i install Ubuntu first, and then i wanna install xp, can i just uninstall ubuntu, and install windows xp then reinstall ubuntu ? | 17:15 |
| Edoreld | would that work? | 17:15 |
| Hex_101 | yea.. | 17:15 |

| Achoth | Actually, you CAN install Ubuntu before Windows, you just have to run a few commands in the Ubuntu LiveCD. Of course, it's way smoother to install Windows first, but it is possible to install Ubuntu if you must | 17:16 |
| Edoreld | no im just a beginner | 17:16 |
| Edoreld | ill do install xp first if i want :P | 17:16 |
| gnomefreak | Edoreld, its just easier to install win first ubuntu 2nd but in what ubotu gave you is a way to recover mbr | 17:16 |

| jonasj | toxicfume: try installing ubuntu-restricted-extras | 17:20 |
| Laser88 | Hi! | 17:20 |
| toxicfume | jonasj: how do i do that? | 17:21 |
| jonasj | toxicfume: but... if you close the video player and open it again, does it just start playing, or does it prompt you again to install codecs? | 17:21 |
| Hex_101 | toxicfume: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras | 17:21 |
| Hex_101 | i think | 17:21 |
| jonasj | and by open it again i mean redoubleclick your video file | 17:21 |
| jonasj | that's right, hex_101... or you can get it from add/remove | 17:21 |

| Jimb | Bcause it is livecd | 18:25 |
| PuppiesAtWork | I know, but isn't that kind of misleading? | 18:25 |
| Pici | PuppiesAtWork: Er, No. | 18:26 |
| PuppiesAtWork | Is there just a standard, graphical Install CD? | 18:26 |
| Pici | PuppiesAtWork: No. | 18:26 |
| leo_away | PuppiesAtWork: why? you can install and browse the web w/ the live cd :-D | 18:26 |
| sethk | PuppiesAtWork, no, it's a dual purpose cd | 18:26 |
| gnomefreak | PuppiesAtWork: look at the first screen you get after usplash it says ubuntu and gives you install/run choices | 18:26 |
| PuppiesAtWork | RIght right | 18:26 |
| PuppiesAtWork | I was just curious | 18:26 |
| Jimb | Nice, and not misleading | 18:26 |
| leo_away | PuppiesAtWork: there's a standard NON-graphical install cd, tho | 18:27 |
| darkspirit | What's best IRC Client? (Ubuntu 7.10) | 18:27 |
| leo_away | !best | darkspirit | 18:27 |
| ubotu | darkspirit: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors. | 18:27 |
| neverblue | darkmatter, your OS doesnt matter, use xchat | 18:27 |
| corleone | join #ubuntu.es | 18:27 |
| Jimb | I use pidgin for irv | 18:27 |
| neverblue | whats irv ? | 18:27 |
| neverblue | :) | 18:27 |
| Jimb | Irc* | 18:27 |
| `m0 | darkmatter: in linux i use irssi | 18:27 |
| PuppiesAtWork | leo_away: Yeah, but thatt is so 90s | 18:27 |
| darkspirit | leo_away: Informative... Hehe, But wich one has more features? | 18:28 |
| neverblue | darkmatter, sudo aptitude install irssi xchat | 18:28 |
| leo_away | PuppiesAtWork: it works flawlessly on older machines | 18:28 |
| Jimb | Im on my iphone currently | 18:28 |
| leo_away | darkspirit: i use konversation, if that's any help. | 18:28 |
| Jimb | Hard to type | 18:28 |
| darkspirit | leo_away, Thanks i'm going to try it. ;) | 18:28 |
| * hd420 grumbles | 18:28 | |
| gnomefreak | darkspirit: best it what you find the best noone can tell you what the best is | 18:28 |
| darkspirit | !find konversation | 18:29 |
| ubotu | Found: konversation, konversation-dbg | 18:29 |
| PuppiesAtWork | what is better, gnome or kde? | 18:29 |
| leo_away | darkspirit: it is a qt irc client | 18:29 |
| leo_away | PuppiesAtWork: your choice, really | 18:29 |
| gnomefreak | PuppiesAtWork: join #ubuntu-offtopic | 18:29 |
| darkspirit | leo_away: qt? | 18:29 |
| hd420 | anyone know anything about my problem? | 18:29 |
| sorl- | anyone have recommendations for a webserver disk layout? | 18:29 |
| leo_away | darkspirit: qt is the library that kde uses (as opposed to gtk, which is gnome) | 18:29 |
| leo_away | darkspirit: if you're using gnome you probably has x-chat installed | 18:30 |
| web_knows | damn, I need mono to compile tomboy | 18:30 |
| gnomefreak | leo_away: nope | 18:30 |
| mihailvoiculescu | i have a problem , every time i try to open Azureus (BitTorrent client)it automatically shut down | 18:30 |
| sethk | hd420, repeat your problem, people come and go frequently | 18:30 |
| darkspirit | leo_away: No I don't, I had to download a IRC Client, i'm using LostIRC | 18:30 |
| darkspirit | !lostirc | 18:30 |
| gnomefreak | only messengare installed by default is pidgon | 18:30 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about lostirc - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 18:30 |
| hd420 | sethk: I just upgraded me system to Gutsy from Feisty | 18:30 |
| darkspirit | !find lostirc | 18:30 |
| ubotu | Found: lostirc | 18:30 |
| gnomefreak | darkspirit: please dont play with the bot | 18:31 |
| hd420 | sethk: I'm now getting "VFS: Cannot open root device "<NULL>" or unknown block(104,1)" "Please append a correct "root=" boot option; here are the available partitions:" "Kernel panic: not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown block(104,1)" | 18:31 |
| leo_away | gnomefreak: oh, i never tried ubuntu, so i wasn't sure. thank you for letting me know. | 18:31 |
| darkspirit | gnomefreak: I'm not :/ | 18:31 |
| Matir | Anyone here own a System76 notebook? I'm thinking about getting one... probably a Pangolin | 18:31 |
| sethk | hd420, that type of error is usually caused by trying to use a root file system type that's not compiled into the kernel. | 18:31 |
| gnomefreak | darkspirit: you are there is no reason for half of what you used example why do you need !find lostirc | 18:31 |
| mihailvoiculescu | i have a problem , every time i try to open Azureus (BitTorrent client)it automatically shut down | 18:31 |
| sethk | hd420, what type of file systems are your root and boot? (they may be the same) | 18:32 |
| hd420 | ext3 | 18:32 |
| leo_away | mihailvoiculescu: what error do you get in terminal? | 18:32 |
| mihailvoiculescu | .... | 18:32 |
| hd420 | sethk: they're both ext3 w/ journaling | 18:32 |
| sethk | hd420, that's odd. ext3 support is certainly in the default kernel. | 18:32 |
| leo_away | mihailvoiculescu: did you try running it from terminal? | 18:32 |
| mihailvoiculescu | An unexpected error has been detected by Java Runtime Environment: | 18:32 |

| sethk | hd420, did the upgrade reinstall grub? | 18:32 |
| hd420 | yes | 18:33 |
| jeffrey | anyone ever read ubutun unleashed | 18:33 |
| hd420 | the root device is "<NULL>" | 18:33 |
| jeffrey | ubuntu | 18:33 |
| hd420 | that's what seems to be the issue | 18:33 |
| hd420 | it should be /dev/hda1 | 18:33 |
| hd420 | or /dev/sda1 | 18:33 |
| sethk | hd420, indeed. I would start by booting the install cd and editing the grub configuration file. | 18:33 |
| leo_away | mihailvoiculescu: http://www.google.com/search?hl=es&q=Internal+Error+%2853484152454432554E54494D450E4350500214%29&btnG=Buscar&lr= | 18:34 |
| hd420 | where's the grub config file? | 18:34 |
| gnomefreak | jeffrey: please join #ubuntu-offtopic for that | 18:34 |
| sethk | hd420, usually /boot/grub/menu.lst | 18:34 |
| albech | how do i set the path in a terminal? export PATH=$PATH:/newpath doesnt work | 18:34 |
| xplatinum | jonasj: yup it worked very well thank you ! | 18:34 |
| gnomefreak | hd420: /boot/grub/menu.lst | 18:34 |
| jonasj | xplatinum, they're all mounted on startup and everything works? | 18:34 |
| hd420 | what am I looking for? | 18:34 |
| jonasj | xplatinum: just check to see that you can still write to the ntfs volumes still | 18:35 |
| jonasj | can you? | 18:35 |
| xplatinum | jonasj: kk hang on | 18:35 |
| gnomefreak | hd420: what are you trying to do? | 18:35 |
| Dr_Willis | albech that is how you set the path. Now for the current shell and any spawned processes | 18:35 |
| sethk | hd420, the kernel command line | 18:35 |
| Dr_Willis | albech that does not permenetly change your PATH however. | 18:35 |
| hd420 | gnomefreak: redefine the root partition | 18:35 |
| sethk | hd420, with either a missing root= or an incorrect root= | 18:35 |
| hd420 | what should it be? | 18:35 |
| gnomefreak | hd420: kernel line for partition near the bottom 50 lines of file (give or take) | 18:36 |
| sethk | hd420, you said either /dev/hda1 or /dev/sda1. I can't look at your hardware. :) | 18:36 |
| sethk | hd420, you can change the root specification at the grub prompt | 18:36 |
| hd420 | how? | 18:36 |
| sethk | hd420, which might be more productive, because when it works, you'll know you have the right parameter | 18:36 |
| xplatinum | jonasj: yup works very well | 18:36 |
| jonasj | xplatinum: excellent | 18:37 |
| sethk | hd420, type help at the grub prompt. that will show you and also stop the timer for the automatic boot | 18:37 |
| xplatinum | gotta go get ready for work now. Thanks alot for your help and patience | 18:37 |
| Goosemoose | can anyone tell me why my ubuntu machine can ping others on the domain using 'ping computer' but not 'ping computer.domain.local' ? | 18:37 |
| Goosemoose | usually it's the other way around | 18:37 |
| jonasj | im glad it worked | 18:37 |
| hd420 | root (hd0.0) is what I have right now | 18:37 |
| === RAPER4E is now known as crzy_boy | ||
| sethk | hd420, dot, not comma? | 18:37 |
| hd420 | sethk: sorry, comma | 18:38 |
| hd420 | if i change it to sd0,0 it says "number parse error" | 18:38 |
| sethk | hd420, ok. do you know which partition (0, 1, 2, 3, or an extended partition) is the root? | 18:38 |
| hd420 | yes, it's 0 | 18:38 |
| sethk | hd420, hold on a moment, I'll look at mine. | 18:39 |
| hd420 | the kernel is /boot/memtest86+.bin is that right? | 18:39 |
| junior_ | . | 18:39 |
| Dr_Willis | memtest is a special memory testing program/kernel thing. :) | 18:39 |
| macaco | Hello | 18:39 |
| Dr_Willis | not a normal kernel | 18:39 |
| sethk | hd420, no, not unless you want to run memtest86 instead of linux | 18:39 |
| macaco | dumb question | 18:39 |
| SpikePT | hi | 18:39 |
| Dr_Willis | macaco our faveorite kind! :) | 18:39 |
| sethk | macaco, so far, I have to agree :) | 18:39 |
| === nicolai__ is now known as Kopfgeldjaeger | ||
| macaco | how i know if my ubuntu have firewall activate | 18:39 |
| leo_away | macaco: expect a dumb answer... ;-) | 18:39 |
| hd420 | that's what I figured | 18:39 |
| Dr_Willis | macaco there is none active by default | 18:40 |
| Dr_Willis | !firewall | 18:40 |
| ubotu | Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE). | 18:40 |
| sethk | hd420, it's normal to find memtest, but there should be other entries as well | 18:40 |
| `Cube | hey, while upgrading to 7.10 I get this error: "Failed to fetch http://falcon.landure.fr/dists/feisty/Release Unable to find expected entry pidgin/binary-amd64/Packages in Meta-index file (malformed Release file?)" what should I do? | 18:40 |
| Dr_Willis | macaco if you think there is one enabled the command 'sudo iptables --list' should show some 'rules' | 18:40 |
| hd420 | there's "Ubuntu 7.10, memtest86+" | 18:40 |
| hd420 | that's all | 18:40 |
| `Cube | hey, while upgrading to 7.10 I get this error: "Failed to fetch http://falcon.landure.fr/dists/feisty/Release Unable to find expected entry pidgin/binary-amd64/Packages in Meta-index file (malformed Release file?)" what should I do? | 18:40 |
| macaco | then why i can'r receive filre from my piding? | 18:40 |
| Pici | `Cube: Remove that entry from System>Administraion>Software Sources. | 18:41 |
| sethk | hd420, do you have any idea why this happened? | 18:41 |
| === crzy_boy is now known as faca | ||
| hd420 | sethk: no, | 18:41 |
| Pici | `Cube: Its a third party repo that probably doesnt have gutsy packages. | 18:41 |
| gnomefreak | `Cube: falcon isnt in repos | 18:41 |
| `Cube | ok, thanks, I love your fast support | 18:41 |
| leo_away | macaco: what protocol? | 18:41 |

| sethk | hd420, you are going to have to construct a proper grub.conf, or enter the appropriate commands at the grub prompt, to get your system to boot. | 18:42 |
| me8myself | question, pretend for somereason the partioning of a harddrive using gpartion was closed down and now everything but gpartion says there is no partion (gpartion says it wont touch it with a 40 foot stick) but you are clearly missing 20 gigs.. . how would one fix this? | 18:42 |
| hd420 | sethk: If I did, I'd bloody fix it myself | 18:42 |
| junior_ | aff mano | 18:42 |
| hd420 | wtf are the "proper grub commands"? | 18:42 |
| macaco | my friend yahoo account send me files but i can't receive | 18:42 |
| hd420 | sethk: you get me? | 18:42 |
| sethk | hd420, yes, but calm down, sometimes people may have seen something during the install that they didn't mention. | 18:43 |
| devilsadvocate | can someone help me get lm-sensors (or any hardware temp monitoring stuff) working? i've got an intel 975xbx2 and an e6600, as well as a nvidia 8500 gt, running ubuntu gutsy 64bit | 18:43 |
| hd420 | I am calm | 18:43 |
| Creeco | Whats wrong with ubuntustudio.. it's just not the same anymore.. | 18:43 |
| `Cube | what should I install first: normal updates (security updates) or the 7.10????? | 18:43 |
| hd420 | if I weren't calm, I'd be typing in uppercase, mate | 18:43 |
| me8myself | lol | 18:43 |
| Laser88 | devilsadvocate: first type sensors-detect | 18:43 |
| softwork | i have a problem, i have a pinnacle 110i and in gutsy i have picture but dont sound | 18:43 |
| Creeco | I tried it and it were awfully unstable, even gnome had major problems | 18:43 |
| me8myself | dont make me upercase you wont like me when i do! | 18:44 |
| devilsadvocate | `Cube, normal updates. Dont upgrade to the next version without being fully updated | 18:44 |
| sethk | hd420, I can post my grub.conf for you on the paste site. I'm running an earlier version, though, so my kernel name won't be exactly the same as yours, and of course you'll have to adjust the root and path and such | 18:44 |
| leo_away | macaco: i usually use senduit.com sometimes there are problems sending files through the messengers (they won't release the specs for that) | 18:44 |
| `Cube | ok, thanks a lot, almost made the other think | 18:44 |
| `Cube | *g | 18:44 |
| hd420 | sure | 18:44 |
| hd420 | sethk: that would be helpful, many thanks | 18:44 |
| me8myself | how can i fix an exstremly broken partion | 18:44 |
| devilsadvocate | thanks Laser88 , will try | 18:44 |
| Creeco | what's the best OS ubuntu or windows? | 18:44 |
| `Cube | where can I get pidgin 2.2.2 with MSN? | 18:44 |
| SpikePT | Is there any way I can make like... mp3 files open with a user defined program? | 18:44 |
| sethk | hd420, ok, I'll post mine, but if anyone here can post one for gutsy it will be easier to deal with. | 18:45 |
| `Cube | what answer do you expect on that chat, Creeco :P | 18:45 |
| `Cube | !sound | 18:45 |
| ubotu | If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 18:45 |

| `Cube | exactly, that SSL thing | 18:45 |
| jonasj | windyh: network-admin | 18:45 |
| `Cube | is there any pre-compiled version? | 18:45 |
| sandaru1 | Cube: not atm | 18:46 |

| Chriswaterguy | how do I burn a data CD in 7.04 and its not working. I'm in Xubuntu, and xfburn is making coasters. So i installed gcdmaster, and turns out it doesn't do data CDs. I have nautilus and installed nautilus-cd-burner, but how do I run it? (command line doesn't work) | 18:46 |
| Pici | SpikyPT: Right click on file, Properties, I believe its the last tab. | 18:46 |
| sethk | hd420, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/43436/ | 18:46 |
| jonasj | windyh: and you know how i know that? when i did system->adminisrtiation->networking, the password prompt said "network-admin will let you modify essential parts of your system" :) | 18:46 |

| Jupp2 | how can I create a launcher that will prompt me for root access? I want to run a program as root... | 18:47 |
| me8myself | hi i have really $%^&ed up my hardrive with a partion that whent horbly wrong, can i get some help? | 18:47 |
| PriceChild | Jupp2, what program? :/ | 18:47 |
| sethk | me8myself, we can try, but we'll need more information than that | 18:48 |
| sandaru1 | `Cube: install these two packages libnss-dev libnspr-dev | 18:48 |
| jonasj | Jupp2: but gksudo in front of the command | 18:48 |
| new2Ubuntu | How can I see what all programs are downloading data in Ubuntu. My modem seems to be receving alot of data but the web pages are barely moving . I dont have any installs running either or downloads | 18:48 |
| `Cube | thanks sandaru1 | 18:48 |
| sethk | new2Ubuntu, netstat will show you active connections. with sudo and -p, it will show you which programs own those connections | 18:48 |
| Jupp2 | jonasj, thanks! | 18:48 |
| devilsadvocate | Laser88, once i do that do i need to reboot to get the modules to load, or is there some way to do it directly? | 18:48 |
| hd420 | hda1 should be (hd0,1)? | 18:49 |
| new2Ubuntu | ty sethk | 18:49 |
| sandaru1 | `Cube: you can also use libgnutls13-dev with ./configure --enable-gnutls | 18:49 |
| Laser88 | devilsadvocate: mom | 18:49 |
| hd420 | or rather sda1 | 18:49 |
| `Cube | what's the difference? | 18:49 |
| sethk | hd420, grub is 0 based, so hda1 is (hd0,0), hda2 is (hd0,1), etc. | 18:49 |
| windyh | sda1 would be hd0,0 assuming you don't have any ide hard drives | 18:49 |
| me8myself | sethk: i used gpartion to make a partion but i for one reason or another closed it down and did a hard reboot while it was partioning, now nothing in windows says its there but i am missing 22 gigs of storag space. also gpartion says there is something horbly wrong with the hardrive and will not do anything to help | 18:49 |
| sethk | hd420, same for sda, sda1 is (sda0,0), sda2 is (sda0,1) | 18:49 |
| sandaru1 | `Cube: difference libraries for SSL handling | 18:50 |
| `Cube | sorry for logging off | 18:50 |
| `Cube | ah ok | 18:50 |
| `Cube | next question, where can I check the exact name of my sound card? | 18:50 |
| === ubuntu__ is now known as Venut | ||
| sandaru1 | `Cube: i guess it's lspci | 18:50 |
| sethk | me8myself, if you know the starting and ending cylinders and the partition type, you can use a simpler partitioning program to restore the partition | 18:50 |
| hd420 | sethk: sd0 and sda0 give me an error while parsing number | 18:51 |
| `Cube | ok, and what to do if my sound card is not supported because it's too new? | 18:51 |
| `Cube | *to | 18:51 |
| sethk | me8myself, if the entire disk was used, and one partition was deleted, then you can figure out those numbers by looking at the other partitions | 18:51 |
| sethk | hd420, sda0 isn't supposed to work. (sd0,0) should work. If not, then sd0 may not be in the translation file | 18:51 |
| sethk | hd420, that file is /boot/grub/device.map | 18:51 |
| sandaru1 | You'll have to wait :).. but generally ALSA supports almost everything | 18:52 |
| sethk | me8myself, boot the ubuntu cd. use fdisk -l /dev/hda to print the partition table (that's assuming of course that we are talking about hda, ide primary master, adjust if necessary). | 18:52 |
| sethk | me8myself, then post the partition table on the paste site, and we'll see if we can recover the partition. | 18:53 |
| me8myself | sethk: k il try | 18:53 |
| sethk | hd420, dumb question, probably, but you are using zero, not upper case O? sometimes mysterious errors turn out to be typos. | 18:53 |
| hd420 | aye, it's figure 0 not letter O | 18:54 |
| `Cube | is there something better then TELLICO | 18:54 |
| Laser88 | devilsadvocate: sudo /etc/init.d/module-init-tools | 18:55 |
| Laser88 | tokk a while... | 18:55 |
| sethk | hd420, do you find sda in device.map? | 18:55 |
| Laser88 | -k+o | 18:55 |
| Venut | How can I run ubuntu from my hardrive instead of a cd. Currently got XP installed, and I want to keep as my main os, but I want to run ubuntu without using the cd. | 18:55 |
| Lunar_Lamp | Hmm, I have disabled "right + left click emulates button3" so I can use button3 for other things, but that now means that I can't use R+L click to paste things - is it possible to still do this? | 18:55 |
| `Cube | is there something better than TELLICO, is there something more gnome-like like TELLICO and is there something like TELLICO for windows? | 18:55 |
| hd420 | sethk: how do I look at device.map from the grub command line | 18:55 |
| sethk | hd420, I've seen this: (hd1) /dev/sda which would mean that sda is referred to as hd1 | 18:56 |
| devilsadvocate | hmm | 18:56 |
| sethk | hd420, I'm not sure that you can look at it from the grub prompt. Probably but I've never done it. | 18:56 |
| sandaru1 | Venut: run the live CD, click install on the desktop | 18:56 |
| sethk | hd420, try (hd1,0) which can't hurt anything | 18:56 |

| jonasj | SliMM: in the save as box, you can choose encoding | 19:09 |
| maek | whats the max ram I can have/see in a 32 bit box? | 19:09 |
| SliMM | jonasj: no other way? | 19:09 |

| superpigs | sheesus | 19:10 |
| jonasj | SliMM: what do you want an other way for??? | 19:10 |
| me8myself | sethk: i tried fdisk -1 /dev/hda but nothing showed up | 19:10 |
| sethk | me8myself, -l (lower case L) | 19:10 |
| SliMM | jonasj: to switch between encodings while still using ctrl+s | 19:10 |
| soundray | JasonOz: I've googled it, too. It seems to have a DiB chipset, which linuxtv supports reasonably well. | 19:11 |
| me8myself | sethk: ok lower case l gives me nothing eather | 19:11 |
| jonasj | SliMM: ctrl-shift-s | 19:11 |

| soundray | JasonOz: generally, if you want to seriously watch TV under Linux, it's best to use a dedicated distribution. But I've heard that it does work with Ubuntu reasonably well. You probably want to look into MythTV (user-friendly) and vdr (very powerful and extensible) | 19:14 |

| sethk | me8myself, if you aren't root, then do: sudo fdisk -l /dev/sda | 19:16 |
| adelie | soundray really? I may need to switch then. I did notice it was a lot faster, just buggy / lack of application support before | 19:16 |
| josh_ | zomg | 19:17 |
| maek | soundray: ill take a look at nspluginwrapper. thanks. | 19:17 |
| soundray | maek: take a look at the ubotu factoid -- I don't know how up to date it is, but it may give you an indication: | 19:17 |

| stroyan | mr_marvin: I don't know if there is a really good way. NTFS permissions control seems really limited. You might be able to use mount with the bind option to make certain files or directories accessible under directories that particular users have access through. | 19:21 |

| marcel | is it possible to use the fancy 3d cube thingie in livecd mode? | 19:27 |
| mr_marvin | stroyan: thanks! | 19:27 |
| marcel | havent found an option to enable that | 19:27 |
| marcel | :/ | 19:27 |
| sethk | me8myself, ok, as long as there was never any data on the disk, we can easily fix that by simply deleting the partition. | 19:27 |
| maek | marcel: try super+e, if that works that means compiz is on, then you can install ccsm to the live env | 19:28 |
| maek | marcel: you have to have the compiz config settings manager to turn on the cube | 19:28 |
| soundray | Cyrus25801: if the SATA is the second drive (ie. you're booting from the IDE one), then you should chainload (hd1,1) | 19:28 |

| marcel | couldnt find it in synaptic | 19:29 |
| maek | marcel: you might have to enable different repos | 19:29 |
| kothz | F0x1n: i play it with wine under ubuntu all the time. | 19:29 |
| PriceChild | F0x1n, have you tried? Have you searched google? There's a guide on the ubuntu wiki if you'd like me to point you to it? | 19:29 |
| sethk | me8myself, I think what I would do is carefully write down the numbers printed by fdisk -l (or, better, capture them to a file), and delete the partition. If that isn't successful we can use fdisk to restore the partition table to its current state. | 19:29 |
| Whitor | maek marcel it should be in the default repos | 19:29 |
| axisys | soundray: kingston does not have it either | 19:29 |

| bulmer | affan your router and dsl are one and the same? | 19:30 |

| soundray | axisys: you should be okay with any DDR2 SO-DIMM for laptops. Do get a second opinion on ##hardware, though | 19:30 |
| stroyan | Cyrus25801: You probably need to use the "map" grub command to map the windows drive to be (hd1). I manage to get "map" commands to work, but never feel confident to get it right on the first try. :) | 19:30 |
| sethk | me8myself, so the sda1 line | 19:30 |

| Scunizi | Got Gutsy installed and all the effects. I opened VMWare server on Desktop #2 and the taskbar lists it on Desktop #2 and #1 at the same time but not on #3 or #4. If I open something on 3 it doesn't show up on #1 but items in #4 WILL show up on #1. How do I prevent this behavior? | 19:31 |
| sethk | me8myself, you run fdisk, without the -l, so, fdisk /dev/sda | 19:31 |

| sethk | me8myself, that will give you a command line of sorts. I believe delete is d. there's a help command which is I believe ? | 19:32 |
| jburd | =\ | 19:32 |
| orangey | what is that OSX-like bar I see in screenshots sometimes? | 19:32 |

| Scunizi | F0x1n, just depends.. not all winX apps will run in wine | 19:34 |
| sethk | F0x1n, emulators have overhead. running the native o/s is always faster | 19:34 |
| jonasj | marcel: no, as i just said: performance under the live cd is always far worse than under the installed system. such is the nature of the live cd. | 19:34 |

| hd420 | thanks sethk | 19:35 |
| kothz | F0x1n: True, emulators have overhead, but sometimes during raids or in Org my framerate is actually better with wine :) | 19:35 |

| me8myself | sethk: so is that all i have to do? | 19:46 |
| battlesquid | hello, for some reason i get very cropped sound when listening to music and CPU is having too much to do in ubuntu... i have a pretty new computer, with AMD64 dual core enabled CPU, and i have disabled the on-board sound, using a separate sound card (terratec). Using a separate sound card was helpful, but I still have problems when CPU is very busy for some seconds... I pretty sure it shouldn't be that way, and it seems the CPU graph in | 19:46 |
| battlesquid | the system monitor applet shows CPU usage is only about 50% although I have dual core enabled. Any help is very much appreciated. | 19:46 |
| jonasj | taz: you dont need firewall either. nor antispyware | 19:46 |
| juanez | jonasj: http://www.internetnews.com/dev-news/article.php/3601946 | 19:46 |
| juanez | jonasj: or just do "linux malware" | 19:46 |
| Linuxer | swares | 19:46 |
| taz | it so cool.. better than window xp or vista | 19:46 |

| rico | it only lets me set "max active torrents" which counts both seeds and downloads | 19:50 |
| soundray | Whitor: it certainly does. Have you perhaps set it to auto-update in the background? What do you get from 'ls -lrt /var/cache/apt/archives | tail -n 1'? | 19:50 |
| bulmer | Artemis3-> google for cups-lpd | 19:50 |
| juanez | jonasj: http://arstechnica.com/news.ars/post/20041025-4348.html , please stop bickering with me. There is a tiny threat and you should not say there isnt one. That's all i'm arguing. | 19:50 |

| jonasj | juanez: that's not a virus, that's a social engineering scheme -- my point still stands | 19:55 |
| bulmer | mr_marvin-> that should come the printer driver.... can you do a localhost:631 on your browser and modify printers? | 19:55 |

| bulmer | Busta---> outside? can you clarify? tell us how is your network layout | 19:59 |
| Busta-- | bulmer: the registrar shows that ns1 is pointing to the correct ip | 19:59 |

| soundray | Cyrus25801: you mean nothing at all? | 20:00 |
| bulmer | gmiller1977-> rdesktop..thats the window protocol right? | 20:00 |
| Busta-- | bulmer: outside, meaning someone one on the local box. for example when someone types in www.mydomain.com i want it to resolve to my box's ip | 20:00 |
| nintendo64 | I'm going to try making it boot from the CD again -.- | 20:00 |
| Busta-- | bulmer: someone NOT on the local box, excuse me | 20:00 |
| gmiller1977 | bulmer > it's the remote desktop protocol that allows you to connect to Windows terminal servers, yes | 20:00 |

| bulmer | gmiller1977-> they work as far as I know.. | 20:01 |
| Alyxander | ok so ive spent the day trolling on the craigslist omputer forum and have come to the conclusion that if most of the world used linux it would be so much better lol | 20:01 |
| sethk | profanephobia, if your description is accurate, then yes. | 20:01 |
| Busta-- | bulmer: i setup the zone files and edited named.conf | 20:01 |

| gmiller1977 | nope, windows vista and xp clients can connect no problem | 20:02 |
| sulo | Hki | 20:02 |
| gmiller1977 | again, i can connect, it's just that the login box never appears | 20:02 |

| scheuri | hi everyone....anyone familiar with dvdrip? | 20:03 |
| Busta-- | bulmer: its the same as the one used externally | 20:03 |
| soundray | JasonOz: open synaptic now and search for 'dvb' in descriptions. Whatever takes your fancy, install and try it out. | 20:03 |
| bulmer | Busta---> does it have a routable ip address? | 20:03 |
| Busta-- | bulmer: yes | 20:03 |
| JasonOz | ok | 20:03 |
| jonasj | sulo: connect the screen, then go system->administration->screens and graphics | 20:04 |

| bulmer | Busta---> do you have a firewall active? iptables -vL | 20:07 |
| sethk | me8myself, in windows? I'm no windows expert. I guess I'd try the disk manager from the control panel. | 20:07 |
| tatters | Anyone noticed that if you lock your screen accidently the cancel doesnt work still have to type password | 20:07 |
| Busta-- | bulmer: when i type that, no command found | 20:07 |
| sulo | jonasj: how do I configure it as a secondary screen? | 20:08 |
| Busta-- | bulmer: i cant even find it in /sbin | 20:08 |

| Reng | anyone know what does "Glib" option do in compiz? | 20:22 |
| leo_away | Cyber_Stalker: true. it only happened to me once, tho. all the other times i used kill/killall, the process died w/o a problem. | 20:22 |
| StanBrinkerhoff | profanephobia: its #1 in my sources. | 20:22 |
| neverblue | StanBrinkerhoff, comment the ISOs out of your sources.list, sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list | 20:22 |
| soundray | StanBrinkerhoff: probably because the online .deb is more recent. | 20:22 |
| stroyan | Cyber_Stalker: What process is that that won't die? Did you use kill -9 yet? | 20:22 |
| Cyrus25801 | soundray: do you mean when i edit the menu.lst file | 20:22 |
| Cyber_Stalker | lol leo_away thats annoying | 20:22 |
| StanBrinkerhoff | soundray: i dont want to use the online .deb | 20:22 |
| soundray | Cyrus25801: yes | 20:23 |
| neverblue | Reng, man glib | 20:23 |
| Cyber_Stalker | stroyan: kill -9 is with the pid correct? | 20:23 |
| soundray | StanBrinkerhoff: I understand that. | 20:23 |
| leo_away | Cyber_Stalker: maybe somebody reported a bug about it. maybe you could check in launchpad | 20:23 |
| me8myself | does anyone know of ubuntu hardrive recovry tools | 20:23 |
| Cyber_Stalker | leo_away: im not that determined lol | 20:23 |
| soundray | StanBrinkerhoff: you meant to reply to neverblue | 20:23 |
| stroyan | Cyber_Stalker: Yes with the pid, or you could use pkill to send it. | 20:24 |
| Cyrus25801 | soundray: i get a new line | 20:24 |
| anthony | Hi, how can I restrict a user to be "caged" in his own home directory, not being able to browse through the rest of the filesystme | 20:25 |
| Cyrus25801 | soundray: i am editing the file like is sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst | 20:25 |
| soundray | Cyrus25801: read carefully. I didn't ask a question. The newline character is what you get when you hit the Enter key. Make sure your menu.lst file ends with such a character. | 20:25 |
| Cyber_Stalker | stroyan: how do i get all the pids >_< | 20:25 |
| mr_marvin | bulmer: i have set up cups, but still the is no odd pages, reverse print etc. any ideas? | 20:25 |
| stroyan | Cyber_Stalker: ps -ef | 20:25 |
| StanBrinkerhoff | anthony: chroot | 20:26 |
| Roey | oh, my god. This channel is so crowded. | 20:26 |
| Cyber_Stalker | thanks stroyan | 20:26 |
| bulmer | mr_marvin-> can you print okay though? | 20:26 |
| jonasj | anthony: do you really need him not to see anything outside of his home folder? or do you just need to keep other user's home folders from him? | 20:26 |
| neverblue | anthony, you can just change which groups that user is in | 20:26 |
| anthony | i want this user to only have access to his own home | 20:26 |
| mr_marvin | bulmer: yes, no ptoblem. quality, paper size.. all ok. | 20:26 |
| RandomUsr | has anyone here used the latest intel microcode and iwl4965 driver package? | 20:26 |
| The-Machine | . | 20:26 |
| PuppiesAtWork | i just installed XGL and am presumably booting from it, but when I do boot up, I just get a black screen and can't type or anything | 20:26 |
| anthony | neverblue: let me see | 20:26 |
| jonasj | anthony: that's impossible. but why in the world would you want to do that?? | 20:27 |
| PuppiesAtWork | Is there anything I can do to get things working again? | 20:27 |
| Cyber_Stalker | stroyan: and leo_away does this look normal? | 20:27 |
| Cyber_Stalker | http://rafb.net/p/sKrqwr58.html | 20:27 |
| anthony | jonasj: i want to give access via ssh to myself and myfriends | 20:27 |
| bulmer | mr_marvin-> then what you must do is print to a file, and use a postscript output then use postscript viewer to print it | 20:27 |
| anthony | jonasj: but let them see only this public directory | 20:27 |
| jonasj | aaah | 20:27 |
| jonasj | okay | 20:27 |
| jonasj | that's a different story | 20:27 |
| stroyan | Cyber_Stalker: It is normal to have many apache2 processes. | 20:27 |
| Cyrus25801 | soundray: i hit enter while editing my menu.lst file and it just gives me a new line no character. | 20:27 |
| Busta-- | blumer: any idea? | 20:27 |
| Cyber_Stalker | stroyan: shouldnt there only be 1? im only running one webserver | 20:28 |
| soundray | PuppiesAtWork: log in on a text console (Ctrl-Alt-F2) and do a 'mkdir .config/xserver-xgl ; touch .config/xserver-xgl/disable'. Then reboot and try again. | 20:28 |
| Tarkus | hey, anyone know of a good lightweight editor (good for Python/C). that looks/functions well? | 20:28 |
| Cyrus25801 | soundray:# is this the character you are refering to | 20:28 |
| soundray | Cyrus25801: no | 20:28 |
| PuppiesAtWork | soundray: I can't even get to the point of loging in to a text console | 20:28 |
| stroyan | Cyber_Stalker: No, apache has several processes that divide up the work. | 20:28 |
| neverblue | Tarkus, vi/vim/emacs | 20:28 |
| tatters | If you give someone a shell to your box they will find a way to get root basically it game over | 20:28 |
| PuppiesAtWork | soundray: Is there anything I can do from a LiveCD? | 20:28 |
| Cyber_Stalker | ok stroyan noted :D now i cant find the pid for the process i wanna kill | 20:29 |
| Cyrus25801 | soundray:then i must be really thick because when i hit enter no character appears just a new line | 20:29 |
| mr_marvin | bulmer: yep, that wors ok... is it possible to have this "ps printing" as default, to skip saving as file? | 20:29 |
| stroyan | Cyber_Stalker: Perhaps you killed it. :-) | 20:29 |
| soundray | Cyrus25801: please try to understand. Between every line and the next, there is a newline character. You can't see it, you can only tell that it's there because it keeps the two lines apart. | 20:29 |
| jburd | Jeez. What a bloody nightmare... There's so much stuff about trying to get Wacom tablets to work... but it still doesn't work for me. | 20:29 |
| bulmer | mr_marvin-> write a script perhaps | 20:29 |
| nintendo64 | hello | 20:30 |
| Cyber_Stalker | stroyan: kill -9 aint working either | 20:30 |
| me8myself | hi | 20:30 |
| bulmer | mr_marvin-> do some research on google | 20:30 |
| === vincel_ is now known as vincel | ||

| mr_marvin | bulmer: thanks for all the tips. i'm off | 20:30 |
| stroyan | Cyber_Stalker: Which process is this and what does it look like in the ps -ef output? | 20:30 |
| nintendo64 | I still can't get the computer to boot ubuntu from the CD | 20:30 |
| STOPudovai | hi. sorry for stupid question, but maybe someone speak albanian? (-: | 20:30 |
| neverblue | nintendo64, did you check the CD, you can do that before installing, same as running memtest | 20:31 |
| soundray | PuppiesAtWork: alternatively, boot in recovery mode and create the file as root. | 20:31 |
| tatters | an albaninian? | 20:31 |
| Cyber_Stalker | stroyan: im over it lol i juist closed the terminal and will reboot when im done with my few convos | 20:31 |
| nintendo64 | And for a few minutes, my computer turned itself off and the power light was blinking orange | 20:31 |
| nintendo64 | -.- | 20:31 |

| anthony | hi, so can I chroot just one user? | 20:32 |
| neverblue | nintendo64, its on the CD | 20:32 |
| neverblue | its called 'check CD' | 20:32 |
| * Cyber_Stalker laughs with neverblue | 20:32 | |
| Cyrus25801 | soundray: well i made a new line because no character appeared and new i get this error: error 12 : invalid device requested | 20:32 |
| zoidberg_ | Cyber_Stalker, I'm confused...would u be able to walk me through it again? | 20:32 |
| Cyber_Stalker | eh | 20:33 |

| nintendo64 | 'check' is not recognized as an internal or external command, | 20:33 |
| nintendo64 | operable program or batch file. | 20:33 |
| Cyber_Stalker | i told you to get the dns ip's from your routers config page | 20:33 |
| neverblue | nintendo64, please dont do that | 20:33 |
| Cyber_Stalker | nintendo64: you noob.... | 20:33 |

| zoidberg_ | Cyber_Stalker, I am not connected to a router anymore...i'mjust using my college's wireless network | 20:35 |
| pegger_ | nintendo64: there has to be settings in the BIOS to boot from the cdrom and to set boot order | 20:35 |
| Cyber_Stalker | nintendo64: every pc in the world has the option of boot priority | 20:35 |

| mycroftiv | I notice that Gutsy has kde4 packages, but the descriptions say they are development only. Is it possible to test out kde4 from these packages without affecting an existing kde3 setup? | 21:28 |
| devnull_lagbox | _Rukus ... i would say use Gnome ... it is what ubuntu uses .... but kubuntu should have the same features | 21:28 |
| bruenig | _Rukus, you are missing the abortion of the registry called gconf | 21:28 |
| me8myself | bio: now that im thinking about this, if i use a windows cd like the install cd, do you think it could try to fix the problem if this disk dosent work | 21:28 |

Its not ipv6 (disabled it, no change)... :) | 21:30 |
| mycroftiv | _Rukus: the difference is just what is installed by default, you can install any gnome/gtk application you want and use it in kde, or you can install the whole gnome and swich back and forth as you choose | 21:31 |

| lestat | Hi all | 22:00 |
| Dimitriid | ubuntu live cd comes with gparted | 22:00 |
| Chicory | It's not DVORAK on by accident or anything; the keys that aren't numbers are assigned correctly. | 22:00 |
| Dimitriid | you could use that one too if you dont want to download | 22:00 |
| Dougy | any idea | 22:00 |
| niux | leo_away: hmm.. burn on minimize wont work | 22:00 |
| mycroftiv | superpigs: yes it is possible, and yes you need to change your sources.list, and also if you are running a server I assume you know to backup data and relevant configuration information prior to a version upgrade | 22:01 |
| leo_away | niux: that's as far as i can help you. i don't use compiz, haha | 22:01 |
| me8myself | bio: errr intriging are the headphones afraid of the phone? | 22:01 |

| noodlesgc | ubuntu what graphics card | 22:04 |
| ubuntu | 8800gts | 22:04 |

| ubuntu | it worked before | 22:04 |
| nintendo64 | and if I try any of the other options it freezes | 22:04 |
| Dimitriid | usb keyboard? | 22:04 |

| Dimitriid | fancy keys and all that or just pretty standart? | 22:04 |
| niux | leo_away: yeah.. so fish she got | 22:04 |
| bionight | ok before you go further with install lets get at least 1 good copy of your mbr | 22:04 |
| nintendo64 | * only | 22:04 |
| ubuntu | it says it does | 22:05 |
| nintendo64 | can nayone help me with this wtf -.- | 22:05 |
| mycroftiv | superpigs: reading back to your actual question, you talk about 'merging' partitions, in which case you need to do more than just use a partitioning tool | 22:05 |
| nintendo64 | * anyone | 22:05 |
| ubuntu | but then it just goes to a black screen | 22:05 |
| leo_away | niux: i didn't know there was a fish plugin | 22:05 |
| Chicory | Dimitri: Standard. | 22:05 |
| ubuntu | and sits | 22:05 |
| Chicory | It's really quite droll. | 22:05 |
| ubuntu | im only on cause of the CD | 22:05 |
| ubuntu | the install cd | 22:05 |
| Dimitriid | thats kinda odd.. | 22:05 |
| nintendo64 | you;re lucky | 22:05 |
| niux | leo_away: it is in some part of compiz.. i thinks its in compiz-fusion | 22:05 |
| Dimitriid | let me think what could be | 22:05 |
| nintendo64 | I cant get it running from the CD | 22:05 |
| ubuntu | i changed some settings in the startup manager | 22:05 |
| Dimitriid | might be a xorg.conf thing but not sure | 22:05 |
| noodlesgc | ubuntu do you remember what you changed? | 22:05 |
| ubuntu | my splash screen wasnt working so someone recommended i install that | 22:06 |
| leo_away | niux: i should check it out and make the vista lovers cry | 22:06 |
| ubuntu | ya just the resoultion from 800x600 to 1024x768 | 22:06 |
| Arethius | how can I get my multimedia keys to control audacity? | 22:06 |
| niux | oh yeah.. wait i found a vid for that some where sec | 22:06 |
| Chicory | Hmm. | 22:06 |
| mycroftiv | superpigs: you will need to first backup all data, then erase the subsidiary partition, then expand the main partition to occupy the size of both, then figure out how to reintegrate the data from the removed partition | 22:06 |
| Chicory | Yeah, I'll try to do another dpkg-reconfigure in a bit. | 22:06 |
| ubuntu | i dont understand why that would prevent me from even reaching the login screen | 22:06 |
| noodlesgc | ubuntu when grub starts, press esc, then go into recovery mode | 22:07 |
| ubuntu | i did that | 22:07 |
| me8myself | bio: i whant to choose option 1? preform automatic backup of all mbr's to disk | 22:07 |

| ubuntu | ok | 22:07 |
| bionight | me8 yes... | 22:07 |
| ubuntu | just that one line ? | 22:07 |
| noodlesgc | you need the exact name of the startup manager | 22:07 |

| mycroftiv | nintendo64: you also said it freezes when you try to verify the CD, and someone answered and said that it sounds like a bad burn. you said "its not" so theres not much more to say | 22:10 |

| Gerrit | Hi, how do I configure exim4 as an SMTP AUTH client? I added the username/password to /etc/exim4/passwd.client but I will probably need to alter some configuration variable to tell exim4 to use SMTP AUTH in the first place. Googling for exim4 auth or exim4 smtp auth seems to give be all kind of guides on how to configure an SMTP AUTH server, but I need merely the client (which should be simple). Can anyone tell me how to do it or ... | 22:11 |
| Gerrit | ... point me to a guide? On https://help.ubuntu.com/6.06/ubuntu/serverguide/C/email-services.html there is the helpful remark "TODO: This section should cover configuring SMTP AUTH with exim4." | 22:11 |
| Phuzion | and if it fails, run it on another computer | 22:11 |
| nintendo64 | I can open it in explorer so it's fine | 22:11 |

| superpigs | erUSUL but i am talking about the ubuntu 7.04 fiesty fawn cd i got. | 22:11 |
| Reng | sudo apt-get vlc | 22:11 |
| Phuzion | Draculim, "sudo apt-get install vlc" should work | 22:11 |
| leo_away | Alex-82: cedega might work tho | 22:12 |
| Nallep | Alex-82: you can try wine or cedega | 22:12 |
| superpigs | erUSUL because i got no cash to buy more empty cdr to burn qparted | 22:12 |
| Draculim | Phuzion: what about the codecs ? | 22:12 |
| nintendo64 | how do I check a disk's integrity then -.- | 22:12 |
| Phuzion | VLC has the codecs built in | 22:12 |

| noodlesgc | Paddy_EIRE I dont anymore, but i knew nothing back then | 22:20 |
| Dimitriid | so you need to install xgl server | 22:20 |
| Dimitriid | and run xgl server | 22:20 |
| bionight | me8 yes probably unless hard drive is scratched | 22:20 |
| leo_away | niux: are they enabled too? | 22:20 |
| me8myself | bio: its porobly not scrached | 22:21 |
| err_ | yeah it is much easier to get info about technical problems on this platform than windows | 22:21 |
| leo_away | niux: you may need to decoment the lines | 22:21 |
| noodlesgc | wow http://ubuntusatanic.org/ | 22:21 |
| bionight | me8 I dont think so either | 22:21 |
| err_ | users seem more knowledgeable in general. more answers, less questions. | 22:21 |
| niux | oh i was doing it the gui way. let me check the other way | 22:21 |
| hweise | *sigh* | 22:21 |
| bildpunkt | Dimitriid: so i just need to install xserver-xgl? | 22:21 |
| blue|palm | ive just dist-upgraded to gutsy, but i cant enable desktop effects, when i do, i lose controls (borders etc.) | 22:21 |
| Dimitriid | hehe well its partially because of windows design | 22:21 |
| bionight | me8 do you have a file on diskette of your mbr filename | 22:21 |
| Dimitriid | anything goes wrong? all settings are on the registry | 22:21 |
| leo_away | niux: i'm more console driven :-) | 22:22 |
| noodlesgc | blue|palm what graphix card? | 22:22 |
| Dimitriid | so if it works, all works, if not, replace the whole thing | 22:22 |
| kelsin | bildpunkt: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-446442.html you can double like (like that forum post says ) that the composite extension is enabled in your xorg.conf file | 22:22 |
| me8myself | bio: yeh | 22:22 |
| kelsin | bildpunkt: double check* | 22:22 |

| Radio1 | can I install ubuntu on my solar powered cell phone. | 22:22 |
| blue|palm | noodlesgc, OH | 22:22 |
| Dimitriid | besides for as much grief people give to linux being cryptic, have you tried to change settings on the registry? | 22:22 |
| blue|palm | noodlesgc, my mistake, nvidia | 22:22 |
| blue|palm | noodlesgc, wrong pc | 22:22 |
| niux | leo_away: yeah me too, but its all new so im just goin by gui for now | 22:22 |
| blue|palm | noodlesgc, its an nvidia Go 7400 | 22:22 |
| roadfish | is there a recommended tool for browsing fonts? something better than xlsfonts. | 22:22 |
| bionight | me8 good now as a backup do work with mbr on disk on file diff name | 22:22 |
| Dimitriid | its almost impossible to know by memory or figure it out on your own | 22:22 |
| FantomR | Can I ask something? | 22:22 |
| Arethius | how can i get my media keys to control programs? | 22:22 |
| Scunizi | Tracker Search Tool has stopped working.. there's no categories listed in the left pane. I tried reinstalling the gui portion with no results. Does anyone have any suggestions? | 22:22 |
| noodlesgc | blue|palm are you using the nv driver? | 22:22 |
| === FantomR is now known as FantomRedux | ||
| blue|palm | noodlesgc, no, prop nvidia driver | 22:23 |
| noodlesgc | blue|palm try nvidia-glx-new | 22:23 |
| roadfish | FantomR: yes, but only one question ... and you've just used up your question. | 22:23 |
| FantomRedux | :( | 22:23 |
| Dimitriid | lol | 22:23 |
| FantomRedux | heh | 22:23 |
| err_ | the whole registry concept is a pretty stupid idea imo. | 22:23 |
| bionight | me8 then we can go about fixing for dualboot | 22:23 |
| blue|palm | noodlesgc, ok thanks | 22:23 |
| Dimitriid | yea | 22:23 |
| kelsin | Arethius: setting them using System/Prefs/Keyboard shortcuts is a good starting step, if your media program or whatever doesn't respond then you have to start checking with the program | 22:23 |
| FantomRedux | is there a way to get WoW runnign in ubuntu? | 22:23 |
| err_ | linux's home folders are much more accessible, and do the same thing as a registry | 22:23 |
| Dimitriid | my job consitst of pretty much saying "have you tried system restore? ok then reinstall windows or call microsoft" | 22:23 |
| Jupp2 | where's a good place to get applets for the avant-window-navigator? | 22:24 |
| Arethius | I've already tried the keyboard shortcuts setting and audacity doesn't have anything to help | 22:24 |
| kelsin | FantomRedux: yes via wine, it's not completely easy and user friendly though, but wow runs great in it | 22:24 |
| err_ | Dimitriid: hiring? | 22:24 |
| err_ | ;) | 22:24 |
| Paddy_EIRE | roadfish: how about just typing 'fonts:///' into nautilus's location bar | 22:24 |
| Dimitriid | hehe | 22:24 |
| niuq | there is a command to show the actual directory? | 22:24 |
| Dimitriid | well they outsource | 22:24 |
| niuq | found it, pwd :D | 22:24 |
| err_ | ah | 22:24 |
| Dimitriid | so you have to be willing to relocate :D | 22:24 |
| err_ | sure | 22:24 |

| FantomRedux | whats the latest version of it? | 22:25 |
| err_ | not enough to write well | 22:25 |
| err_ | dam | 22:25 |
| err_ | well thats a little far | 22:25 |
| Dimitriid | not to write, just to talk to people :D | 22:25 |
| kelsin | Arethius: you'll have to check with the audacity people, forums / their irc channel | 22:25 |
| noodlesgc | Dimitriid ill take a job, i know latin :P | 22:25 |
| Arethius | thanks | 22:25 |
| leo_away | Dimitriid: i speak spanish :-D | 22:25 |
| Dimitriid | hehe well you don't REALLY need spanish for my job | 22:25 |
| err_ | lolol | 22:25 |
| Dimitriid | its all english | 22:25 |

| sioux | !pulseaudio-module-jack | 22:26 |
| err_ | !sound | 22:26 |
| leo_away | Dimitriid: oh... i thougt i could work from the distance... bummer | 22:26 |
| ubotu | If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 22:26 |
| filloy | Scunizi: then ill turn the computer off | 22:26 |
| Scunizi | filloy, good choice.. | 22:27 |
| Dimitriid | vlc will play just about anything but the interface is not good for mp3 playing | 22:27 |
| blue|palm | noodlesgc, still no window controls/ borders etc. | 22:27 |
| noodlesgc | ok i g2g seeyall | 22:27 |
| sioux | I am not having problems with alsa... I just looking for pulseaudio-module-jack | 22:27 |
| sioux | in deb | 22:27 |
| Dimitriid | and also on gutsy, it refused to play encrypted dvds for some reason | 22:27 |
| filloy | Scunizi: thank you and good bye! | 22:27 |
| noodlesgc | blue|palm i g2g but google might help you | 22:27 |
| err_ | outsourcing = pay you like $2/hr. That only works in less developed areas. | 22:27 |
| Dimitriid | totem with that w32 pluging from vlc works, the irony | 22:27 |
| bruenig | not ironic | 22:28 |
| Dimitriid | yeah they pay really bad | 22:28 |
| Dimitriid | do not respect local labor laws either, etc | 22:28 |
| err_ | hmm | 22:28 |
| blue|palm | i have a problem with desktop effects in gusty, ive got nvidia-glx-new and no window controls/borders appear | 22:28 |
| Goosemoose | can anyone tell me why my ubuntu machine can ping others on the domain using 'ping computer' but not 'ping computer.domain.local' ? | 22:28 |
| Dimitriid | I do so so, $500 a month for part time 20 hours at week | 22:28 |
| err_ | kinda like walmart ;) | 22:28 |
| roadfish | Paddy_EIRE: thanks for the tip ... and then I can right click to view with "GNOME font viewer". but, tsk, some non-latin fonts don't show anything :-( | 22:28 |
| err_ | but they sure do bring a cheap service eh? | 22:29 |
| leo_away | Dimitriid: they offered me that job over here too (argentina) i refused it many times. i don't want to deal w/ lusers | 22:29 |
| Dimitriid | hehe Ive dealt with customers for years | 22:29 |
| Dimitriid | cellphone customers, aol customers, etc. | 22:29 |
| Dimitriid | im used to it | 22:29 |
| err_ | or maybe the cheap services are only brought to americans? | 22:29 |
| err_ | i dont know =/ | 22:29 |
| Dimitriid | actually service levels on call centers its going up, since its a competition between several outsourced companies, they demand pretty unreasonable standarts | 22:30 |
| nintendo64 | Ok I burned the CD at 4x and it still doesnt work | 22:30 |
| Dimitriid | for example we have to push sales...on a tech support help desk job | 22:30 |
| err_ | Dimitriid: ew. commission? | 22:31 |
| blue|palm | i have a problem with desktop effects in gusty, ive got nvidia-glx-new and no window controls/borders appear | 22:31 |
| Dimitriid | one would hope but no, last month i got a 6 bucks walmart gift card | 22:31 |
| nintendo64 | I'll select somehting press enter and then the cd will spin for a second then stop and if I press any buttons it will just make a beeping noise | 22:31 |
| Dimitriid | for like 250 revenue | 22:31 |
| err_ | Dimitriid: sucks | 22:31 |
| nintendo64 | then if I turn it off, the light iwll just blink orange until I unplug it | 22:31 |
| nickrud | nintendo64: by doesn't work, no boot, no install, what something? | 22:31 |
| err_ | Dimitriid: some companies won't outsource their support because their customers dont respond well to it | 22:32 |
| nintendo64 | The menu will come on from the CD and if I select start/install or anything else it freezes | 22:32 |
| tsai | hi, does anyone know how to properly shrink a 6gb dvd to 4.7 using k9copy? I've googled with no real luck yet | 22:32 |
| Dimitriid | that is true but | 22:32 |
| nintendo64 | then the cd wil lstop spinning and if I press nay buttons the computer will just make a beeping noise | 22:32 |
| Felase | I'm having a problem with my Intel 3945ABG wireless adapter, some times it connects to my home network without a glitch, sometimes it will work after a while, sometimes not at all... | 22:32 |
| Dimitriid | they eventually will, remember fightclub? | 22:32 |
| nintendo64 | I might just give up soon if ubuntu is this hard to install | 22:33 |
| nintendo64 | -.- | 22:33 |
| BouZou | http://s1.fi.bitefight.org/c.php?uid=39990 | 22:33 |
| Dimitriid | if the costs of unsatisfied customers * the expected number of settlements and conflicts its less than the savings from outsourcing | 22:33 |
| blue|palm | i have a problem with desktop effects in gusty, ive got nvidia-glx-new and no window controls/borders appear | 22:33 |
| Dimitriid | we will outsource | 22:33 |
| err_ | Dimitriid: that means they have to pay probably 5x-10x more... Fight Club? not the well i guess, i remember something about schitzophrenia and exploding soap | 22:33 |
| Dimitriid | and its getting really close to that | 22:33 |
| blue|palm | nintendo64, unforunately, it varies from hardware to hardware :-( | 22:33 |
| kirika | nintendo64, did you check the disk for effors before running the disk | 22:33 |
| nintendo64 | Mine is a pentium 3 Dell | 22:33 |
| nintendo64 | If I do that it freezes too | 22:33 |
| err_ | ah i see what you mean | 22:34 |
| nintendo64 | you mean from windows or the disk menu? | 22:34 |
| Dimitriid | nintendo64 are you trying to install on a laptop? | 22:34 |
| ukubuntu | anyone know of a LAMP system like XAMPP, that is within the main repositories that I could run on the Ubuntu desktop? | 22:34 |
| nintendo64 | No | 22:34 |
| nintendo64 | I desktop lol | 22:34 |
| nintendo64 | * A | 22:34 |
| Dimitriid | hmm, might work with acpi = off and all those options but seems unlikely | 22:34 |
| blue|palm | i have a problem with desktop effects in gusty, ive got nvidia-glx-new and no window controls/borders appear | 22:34 |
| mycroftiv | nintendo64: you are clearly having a hardware compatibility issue, its possible some of the kernel boot options might resolve it such as noapic acpi=off | 22:34 |
| Dimitriid | it means there is no window manager | 22:34 |
| nintendo64 | what's acpi | 22:34 |
| Dimitriid | try opening metacity manually | 22:35 |
| nintendo64 | what's acpi mean | 22:35 |
| mycroftiv | nintendo64: a system for how the OS relates the motherboard and hardware, it causes a lot of hardware issues | 22:35 |
| nickrud | nintendo64: you should try ide_generic as a boot option | 22:35 |
| nintendo64 | ok | 22:35 |
| Dimitriid | its a motherboard checkoff settings | 22:35 |
| nintendo64 | I use the IDE cd drive | 22:35 |
| WindowSmasher | okay okay | 22:35 |
| WindowSmasher | I'm having trouble with grub | 22:35 |
| nintendo64 | I'll restart and try it with those options lol | 22:36 |
| nickrud | nintendo64: ide_generic worked for a lot of people, been looking for an easy howto | 22:36 |
| swatF1RESTORM | everytime I restart (gibbon) I get a message that pops up asking me which keyboard setting I would like to use. Anyway to prevent this message from coming up every restart? | 22:36 |
| Some_Person | How long does Ubuntu take to install? >20min? | 22:36 |
| bionight | WindowSmasher whats up? | 22:36 |
| WindowSmasher | I installed windows xp and then ubuntu. They are on 2 diff drives. I'm trying to follow the "recovering ubuntu after installing windows" guide, but grub will NOT install | 22:37 |
| kirika | Some_Person, depends on the desktop enviroment | 22:37 |
| Dimitriid | more or les some_person | 22:37 |
| err_ | ukubuntu: read this, especially chapters 3, 8, and 9. http://doc.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/index.html | 22:37 |
| WindowSmasher | It says it install fine, but the comp boots straight into windows | 22:37 |
| Dimitriid | also sometimes it tries to check for updates on the internet, if your connection its slow | 22:37 |
| Some_Person | kirikia: GNOME Desktop Environment | 22:37 |
| Dimitriid | it might make install slower | 22:37 |
| Dimitriid | that something I strongly disagree with about the install process | 22:37 |
| kirika | Some_Person, mine took about 45 to an hour | 22:37 |
| Dimitriid | it should have a 100% offline option | 22:37 |
| Paddy_EIRE | Some_Person: also depends on the hardware | 22:37 |
| Scunizi | WindowSmasher, check out http://users.bigpond.net.au/hermanzone/p15.htm. What I've found is grub is installed on the right drive. | 22:37 |
| kirika | Some_Person, on an older machine | 22:37 |
| Scunizi | *wrong drive | 22:38 |
| Some_Person | My connection is slowish ADSL | 22:38 |
| bionight | WindowSmasher have you heard of GAG prog | 22:38 |
| ukubuntu | thank you err_, appreciate it | 22:38 |
| Felase | I'm having a problem with my Intel 3945ABG wireless adapter, some times it connects to my home network without a glitch, sometimes it will work after a while, sometimes not at all... | 22:38 |
| Some_Person | and the machine is like 2 years old | 22:38 |
| Dimitriid | what is slowish, like 128/d56kbps? | 22:38 |
| Paddy_EIRE | Dimitriid: huh.. you dont need the internet to install ubuntu | 22:38 |
| Some_Person | more than that | 22:38 |
| kirika | it should be relatively quick then | 22:38 |
| Dimitriid | on Xubuntu | 22:38 |
| Some_Person | for 7.04? | 22:38 |
| Dimitriid | it froze when trying to install cause of the internet, took a whole hour downloading something | 22:38 |
| kirika | yea | 22:38 |
| === feisty is now known as [S0D]m_i_c | ||
| Some_Person | because i cant get the damn 7.10 installer to not screw up my partition table | 22:39 |
| Dimitriid | on gutsy the same thing I couldn't install with the alternate cd cause it was trying to contact apt-get mirrors and couldn't | 22:39 |
| kirika | just to let you know there are a few bugs in the internet install | 22:39 |
| ukubuntu | err_ is that guide for desktops as well? | 22:39 |
| err_ | ukubuntu: no problem. The main point in regards to your question is that software packages are easy to install from the repository and so things like XAMPP or whatever it's called arent really needed. | 22:39 |
| Some_Person | but 5.10-7.04 worked fine | 22:39 |
| WindowSmasher | bionight: no I havent | 22:39 |
| ukubuntu | I see err_ | 22:39 |
| kirika | if it cant find some files it will either freeze or quit | 22:39 |
| mycroftiv | Some_Person: the 7.10 partitioner was also unusable for me, it crashed every time while i was trying to setup a manual partitioning system | 22:39 |
| err_ | well no its for ubuntu server, but esp. chapter 3 applies to you | 22:39 |
| ukubuntu | you pre-empted me :) | 22:39 |
| err_ | in other words | 22:39 |
| bionight | WindowSmasher hold on then | 22:39 |
| Some_Person | thats the problem im having | 22:39 |
| Some_Person | and it left me with no bootable partition | 22:39 |
| FantomRedux | :( damn my wireless cards | 22:40 |
| err_ | type something like "apt-get install apache2 mysql php5" and you're more or less done | 22:40 |
| FantomRedux | ive got 2 and neither are supported | 22:40 |
| kirika | do a generic partition option with a networkless install | 22:40 |
| Paddy_EIRE | FantomRedux: all you have to do is look at the supported hardware lists | 22:40 |
| Some_Person | i had to use piracy to get it working again (but i cracked the disk in half so dont call the police) | 22:40 |
| FantomRedux | i did | 22:40 |
| WindowSmasher | bionight: will it let me use grub? Or is it a completely different boot manager? | 22:40 |
| FantomRedux | i have a belkin and a linksys | 22:40 |
| Paddy_EIRE | FantomRedux: a belkin what and a linksys what | 22:40 |
| sacamano | Hey, random question. My fat32 external HD will like randomly unmount, I double click on the volume and it mounts automatically, so there's no issue, but is there a problem? Is the drive failing at all? | 22:41 |
| FantomRedux | Linksys WUSB54GS and Belkin F5D7050 | 22:41 |
| nickrud | err_: mysql-server-5.0 , but otherwise exactly what I did :) | 22:41 |
| bionight | windowshamasher first grub isnt completeing install correct? | 22:41 |
| Paddy_EIRE | FantomRedux: are they both listed in the supported hardware | 22:41 |
| FantomRedux | huh? | 22:41 |
| s|k | hi, is there a way to send a command line command from the desktop without having to open a terminal? | 22:41 |
| WindowSmasher | bionight: I boot from the live cd and try the grub install, but I don't think it's actually over writing the windows mbr | 22:42 |
| FantomRedux | you sure? | 22:42 |
| Dimitriid | sacamo does it works when you try to manually remount after it unmounts? | 22:42 |
| mycroftiv | Some_Person: you might try the alternate install non-live CD with text installer, I was able to install 7.10 into an existing partition with it | 22:42 |
| Pici | s|k: alt-f2 | 22:42 |
| Paddy_EIRE | s|k: try alt+f2 | 22:42 |
| FantomRedux | because I cant see 7050 anywhere | 22:42 |
| s|k | Pici | Paddy_EIRE: thanks | 22:42 |
| WindowSmasher | bionight: I think grub is installing to the ubuntu partition instead of the boot sector | 22:42 |
| err_ | nickrud: yeah, gotta love "apt." Just that tool alone puts debian-based systems head and shoulders above windows imo | 22:42 |
| nickrud | S|k alt-f2 you can run a program from there, bash commands not usually | 22:42 |
| Dimitriid | sacamano i mean | 22:42 |
| Paddy_EIRE | FantomRedux: I only buy suported hardware.. saves time | 22:42 |
| FantomRedux | im on windows at the min | 22:42 |
| FantomRedux | hehe | 22:42 |
| err_ | heh | 22:43 |
| nickrud | err_: other distro's have equivs now, even apt for rpms; its the integration done by the dev's that really shines | 22:43 |
| FantomRedux | but rest assured i have a key so..... yeah | 22:43 |
| bionight | windowshmasher do you think linux is on the hard drive though? | 22:43 |
| sacamano | dimitriid it works fine when i double click on "112 gb volume" | 22:43 |
| Dimitriid | alt-f2 then gnome-terminal or att+f2 and then xterm | 22:43 |
| WindowSmasher | I know it is | 22:43 |
| Dimitriid | hmm | 22:43 |
| s|k | nickrud: thank you | 22:43 |
| WindowSmasher | bionight: lets talk in pm | 22:43 |
| err_ | btw to windows users i would strongly recommend against packages like XAMPP. Install everything by hand, the first time, the right way. You will thank yourself. | 22:43 |
| Dimitriid | is that an usb 2.0 drive? | 22:44 |
| Dimitriid | or firewire drive? | 22:44 |
| sacamano | dimitriid its a usb 2.0 | 22:44 |
| Dimitriid | i think that might be an fstab or hal daemon thing | 22:44 |
| FantomRedux | whats XAMPP? | 22:44 |
| bionight | windowshmasher k | 22:44 |
| s|k | nickrud: is there a keyshort cut to lock the desktop? | 22:44 |
| err_ | FantomRedux: nothing good. | 22:44 |
| sacamano | dimitriid so you dont think theres any real problem? | 22:44 |
| knoopx | hi all | 22:44 |
| Dimitriid | but those settings are complex, check the forums there are many posts on that | 22:44 |
| FantomRedux | hehe k | 22:44 |
| Dimitriid | well if it mounts its not a physical problem | 22:44 |
| Paddy_EIRE | s|k: ctrl+alt+l | 22:45 |
| WindowSmasher | bionightL You're not responding | 22:45 |
| s|k | Paddy_EIRE: thank you :) | 22:45 |
| err_ | nickrud: apt for rpms == alien? | 22:45 |
| === jks_ is now known as TuPari | ||
| nickrud | s|k: not that I remember, | 22:45 |
| knoopx | does anyone know why my desktop scrolls and doesnt fit screen? i have dual monitor setup | 22:45 |
| Dimitriid | i think alient is to go from rpm to deb | 22:45 |
| s|k | nickrud: ctrl + alt + l did it | 22:45 |
| Dimitriid | or viceversa | 22:45 |
| nickrud | err_: no, a front end for rpms called apt | 22:45 |
| Paddy_EIRE | err_: alien is a totally different kettle of fish to apt | 22:45 |
| nickrud | s|k: ah, I'll use that one, thanks | 22:45 |
| bionight | windowshamsher sorry trying | 22:45 |
| err_ | well alien converts rpms to deb packages | 22:46 |

| nintendo64 | I've been trying for 2 days | 23:14 |
| yowshi | vesa | 23:14 |
| Flamekebab | mycroftiv, it seems that even when I reload the window decorator it doesn't do anything, only switching back to metacity restores them (thereby losing the features of compiz..) | 23:14 |
| nintendo64 | nothing anyone says here helps | 23:14 |
| Dimitriid | nintendo64, some people have had bad luck with Gutsy, many will disagree but maybe using Feisty Fawn would help | 23:14 |

| bionight | you should back up mbr first | 23:15 |
| Dimitriid | mm | 23:15 |
| mycroftiv | flamekebab: you might need to tweak something in either the compiz configuration or your graphics setup then, you should probably try searching ubuntu forums and compiz forums for people with window decoration problems and a similar setup | 23:15 |

| Paddy_EIRE | Guerra: how what | 23:17 |
| osxdude | ijerry wtf | 23:17 |
| Odd-rationale | saltydav: Logging on as root is dangerous. However, you can try sudo su | 23:17 |
| Dimitriid | Guerra, what is the line for xp? it should probably be /dev/sd0 if you have nothing else on that sata drive | 23:17 |
| bionight | Some_Person so you are using windows and you see your linux boot from win boot list? right? | 23:17 |
| grandtxred | what did you install first windows or linux? in regards to booting | 23:17 |
| nintendo64 | The computer will freeze if I try doing anything from the menu from booting the CD | 23:17 |
| Slart | !root | saltydav | 23:17 |
| ijerry | osxdude wtf | 23:17 |
| ubotu | saltydav: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 23:17 |

| nintendo64 | I giveu p I'll try this later | 23:25 |
| nickrud | heh, people that blow up systems regularly seem to become developers in the long run | 23:25 |
| Gunn | elninja I downloaded QTparted and it says no devices found | 23:25 |
| Guerra | Dimitriid: getting my IMs now? | 23:25 |
| yowshi | ok how the hell am, i supposed to know how much memory my video card uses | 23:25 |
| nickrud | nintendo64: a sec, I thought you had some info already | 23:25 |
| nintendo64 | ubuntu is dumb, it's impossible to install | 23:25 |
| elninja | Are you using KDE or Gnome? | 23:25 |
| Paddy_EIRE | nickrud: I would believe that | 23:25 |
| Slart | leo_away: well.. noone can blame us for not trying to warn him off | 23:25 |
| elninja | Gunn, Are you using KDE or Gnome? | 23:25 |
| Dimitriid | Guerra, still not getting anything, How do you open private chat on xchat? | 23:25 |
| bionight | elninja i use qtparted and I also use Acronis diskdirector | 23:25 |
| bionight | on live | 23:25 |
| leo_away | Slart: true | 23:26 |
| Gunn | nickrud, df -h shows /dev/hda5 as my linux partition which is good, but which one is my windows partition | 23:26 |
| Guerra | Dimitriid: No idea, I'm using pidgin, Way better for IRC | 23:26 |
| Yogiz | Hey, nothing to do with ubuntu but we need more players in #akro and this is the largest channel : )) | 23:26 |
| Yogiz | have a try | 23:26 |
| nickrud | Gunn: the one thats says ntfs | 23:26 |
| Paddy_EIRE | nintendo64 threw his toy down pretty hard there | 23:26 |
| Paddy_EIRE | lol | 23:26 |
| leo_away | nintendo64 is dumb, he can't make ubuntu install | 23:26 |
| Nallep | !offtopic | Yogiz | 23:26 |
| ubotu | Yogiz: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! | 23:26 |
| grunky | heya all .. where can i find help with dmesg issue? | 23:26 |
| Dimitriid | leo_away, he is having problems with the installer which is not unheard off | 23:26 |
| Yogiz | hehe | 23:26 |
| Yogiz | alright I'm out | 23:26 |
| Gunn | elninja ubuntu 7.10 I think gnome | 23:26 |
| * nickrud thinks 7.04 and 7.10 have real install issues, didn't see near this many with hoary, breezy or dapper | 23:27 | |
| Yogiz | great distro you have though | 23:27 |
| Gunn | nickrud, I dont see ntfs listed | 23:27 |
| fsdfsdf | how did i lose the permission to auto write in xorg.conf and how can i get it back again | 23:27 |
| Dimitriid | i doubt he was doing anything wrong if he couldn't even get it to work properly | 23:27 |
| === fsdfsdf is now known as saltydav | ||
| leo_away | Dimitriid: i had problems w/ the installer. i didn't blame the developers, tho | 23:27 |
| blue|palm | i have a problem with desktop effects in gusty, ive got nvidia-glx-new and no window controls/borders appear | 23:27 |
| saltydav | how did i lose the permission to auto write in xorg.conf and how can i get it back again? | 23:27 |
| wade | Hey does anyone know what package i need to get to install wireshark on my Ubuntu 6.0.6 LTS box? | 23:27 |
| Ackdar | It takes an idiot to not know ho to install Ubuntu, the simplest Linux distro on Earth | 23:27 |
| mycroftiv | nintendo64: if you press f6 at the live cd initial menu, you will get a line of text. that is where you type additional boot parameters | 23:27 |
| Slart | grunky: depends on the message.. try googling for it first.. you might find a solution.. | 23:27 |
| Guerra | Does anyone have experience with Error 21: Selected Disk does not exist, when trying to multiboot in GRUB? Help would be appreciated so very much. | 23:27 |
| humbolt | Does anybody know how to engage an unlock-keyring action by hand? | 23:27 |
| Dimitriid | well did you already knew that hardware problems like bios problems are usually beyond the devs control? | 23:27 |
| leo_away | mycroftiv: he left | 23:27 |
| Gunn | nickrud, wait I see /dev/hda1 size 128 which is my whole drive i believe | 23:27 |
| nickrud | Gunn: you said you could see it under media/sda something, it should be in df also | 23:27 |
| Paddy_EIRE | Dimitriid: he obviously is not of the right temperment to use linux at all.. so no point in encouraging him | 23:27 |
| Dimitriid | if you don't how is he supposd to know? | 23:27 |
| Ackdar | wade | 23:27 |
| humbolt | The kind that is usually done after login. | 23:27 |
| blue|palm | Ackdar, not always true hey, the installer works perfectly for most, but sometimes things just go wrong | 23:27 |
| Guerra | Paddy_EIRE: Let's not have an elitist attitude, don't forget the meaning of Ubuntu. | 23:28 |
| humbolt | My keyrings appear to be locked after hibernation. | 23:28 |
| nickrud | Gunn: hda1 is nearly always windows (it's greedy for first place) | 23:28 |
| Slart | Guerra: yup.. many people come in here with that.. I don't have a polished and packaged solution for it.. but it's solvable | 23:28 |
| mycroftiv | i believe he is 12, he spent a lot of time asking questions about trying to use cygwin in ##linux and not comprehending anything :/ | 23:28 |
| saltydav | please help Reconfiguring X.org video drivers is not possible: /etc/X11/xorg.conf is invalid or does not exist. | 23:28 |
| bionight | Gunn nickrud is right | 23:28 |
| Dimitriid | you shouldn't need temperment to run a straightfowrard os | 23:28 |
| leo_away | Dimitriid: i had problems w/ my video card. my ubuntu live cd wasn't even booting. i googled, and i solved it. no point in blaming ubuntu when the hardware is the problem | 23:28 |
| grunky | i've tried that and there is nothing about this issue that i have found .. i type "dmesg | head" and it comes back [98788.329384] recvmsg bug: copied 3BFE1206 seq 3BFE17AE then all this kernel stuff | 23:28 |
| Guerra | Slart: Great, what should I do? Or any suggestions? | 23:28 |
| Paddy_EIRE | Guerra: hardly.. reading this would straighten people out very fast http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm | 23:28 |
| blue|palm | leo_away, but that same box would work with windows... to the end user its ubuntus fault | 23:29 |
| Dimitriid | Guerra, have you tried sd0 instead of sd1? | 23:29 |
| Dimitriid | cant hurt to try | 23:29 |
| Paddy_EIRE | Guerra: linux is linux no matter what its supposed to be like lego | 23:29 |
| Guerra | Paddy_EIRE: Not everyone knows where to find all these things. Linux is NOT centralized. It's highly fragmented. | 23:29 |
| nickrud | saltydav: in a terminal, sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg will set up your xorg.conf , then you can go from there | 23:29 |
| Guerra | Dimitriid: It's sda and sdb | 23:29 |
| Ackdar | !packages | wade | 23:29 |
| ubotu | wade: You can browse and search for Ubuntu packages using !Synaptic, !Adept, "apt-cache search <keywords or regex>", the "apt:/" URL in KDE, or online at http://packages.ubuntu.com - Ubuntu has about 20000 packages available, so please *search* for an official package before installing things in awkward ways! | 23:29 |
| RedB14 | hi | 23:29 |
| Paddy_EIRE | Guerra: google and a couple of words is basic knowledge all users should know | 23:29 |
| leo_away | blue|palm: then Paddy_EIRE is right, and he's not being an elitist | 23:29 |
| Ackdar | !ask | RedB14 | 23:29 |
| ubotu | RedB14: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :) | 23:29 |
| Slart | Guerra: go read some grub documentation and try setting up grub again.. by hand.. that is.. setup the boot thingy.. write the mbr etc | 23:30 |
| Guerra | Paddy_EIRE: Well, it should be easy enough for IDIOTS. Else microsoft will always be king. | 23:30 |
| Dimitriid | leo_away, if I didn't know ATi refuses to cooperate with open software how would I know its not Linux fault? | 23:30 |
| borg_ | i want to update from feisty to gutsy, but i get: http://pastebin.ca/762874 | 23:30 |
| elninja | Gunn, I'm not familiar with qtparted. I use gparted instead. Although, you may need to run it with "sudo qtparted". if you're getting a "device not found" error. | 23:30 |
| Gunn | nickrud bionight, so it says linux has 27GB free and windows has 65GB free but I am pretty sure I dont have 92GB free on my disk | 23:30 |
| borg_ | ideas? | 23:30 |
| leo_away | Dimitriid: google maybe? | 23:30 |
| Guerra | Slart: I did! I can't get it to work! | 23:30 |
| Paddy_EIRE | Guerra: linux is not windows. nor is it trying to be | 23:30 |
| Dimitriid | don't make any assumptions about what a user might or might now now | 23:30 |
| nickrud | Gunn: I've never had df be wrong | 23:30 |
| Dimitriid | know i mean | 23:30 |
| blue|palm | leo_away, well no... Paddy_EIRE can't be right with that attitude... but it doesnt change the fact that ubuntu struggles in certain scenarios | 23:30 |
| borg_ | i did /etc/init.d/dbus restart | 23:30 |
| Slart | grunky: could you pastebin that whole thing and I'll take a look at it | 23:30 |
| leo_away | Dimitriid: if you're not ready to google then linux is not for you | 23:30 |
| borg_ | but it didnt change anything | 23:30 |
| lekremyelsew | can anyoone help me configure emerald to work with compiz fusion | 23:30 |
| bionight | Gunn are you in linux or win right now | 23:31 |
| Ackdar | borg_, I think you have to upgrade to the respective release until you get to gutsy | 23:31 |
| Guerra | Paddy_EIRE: No, but linux should replace windows entirely. Else we'll never progress | 23:31 |
| blue|palm | i have a problem with desktop effects in gusty, ive got nvidia-glx-new and no window controls/borders appear | 23:31 |
| Gunn | bionight linux | 23:31 |
| Cornishman | Windows messes up during install for some people with certain hardware configurations too | 23:31 |
| Ackdar | borg_, but I'm not sure | 23:31 |
| leo_away | i don't think linux should replace windows entirely | 23:31 |
| Dimitriid | and you do not go out to search for such answsers on google where you would just find ATI homepage as the first thing and their supposed "drivers" for linux | 23:31 |
| Dimitriid | and think Oh it would be ok | 23:31 |
| nickrud | nah, we will always need a second best os | 23:31 |
| blue|palm | Cornishman, i've never heard of that happening :-P maybe i was lucky | 23:31 |
| === Iesos is now known as Jesus | ||

| === juanbond is now known as juanbond-away | ||
| lekremyelsew | anybody? | 23:31 |
| Dimitriid | any inexperienced user who doesn't even knows what open source means would not be able to easily find unrelated information when trying to make a decision to try ubuntu | 23:32 |
| Slart | Guerra: I'm sorry.. grub is user-friendly.. but I don't think it has any friends =).. make sure you're typing everything exactly according to the manual.. spaces, capital letters etc etc | 23:32 |
| Gunn | nickrud bionight for some reason I think the 2 partitions are sharing space | 23:32 |
| Gunn | bionight ok im there | 23:32 |
| Paddy_EIRE | Guerra: who says it aint progressing?? if you mean becoming more like windows then I think the entire linux community would be very upset.. its supposed to be raw.. and editing a text file is hardly brain surgery | 23:32 |
| Ackdar | !ask | lekremyelsew | 23:32 |
| ubotu | lekremyelsew: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :) | 23:32 |
| blue|palm | Cornishman, correct, i never worked in technical assistance or anything, but i am a programmer | 23:32 |

| leo_away | Dimitriid: that's only cuz people coming from windows are lazy | 23:32 |
| leo_away | Dimitriid: when switching to linux you're doing more than switching OSs | 23:32 |
| nickrud | Gunn: herm, bad partitioning maybe? have you tried sudo fdisk -l | 23:32 |
| bionight | Gunn are you seeing the right number of partitions? | 23:32 |
| saltydav | i still can't install restrcted driver ""Reconfiguring X.org video drivers is not possible: /etc/X11/xorg.conf is invalid or does not exist." | 23:32 |
| blue|palm | leo_away, but if its more work to use ubuntu, then perhaps windows is better for them? | 23:32 |
| Guerra | Slart: I've got it to work before, I'm not entirely sure why it won't work now. It boots vista and ubuntu, but refuses to boot XP, which is on a secondary drive. | 23:32 |
| francy | Ma questo canale è solo in inglese | 23:32 |
| Paddy_EIRE | Guerra: perhaps you should use windows.. instead of tying to make this something it is not trying to be | 23:32 |
| Dimitriid | leo_away, people who use computers are lazy, they choose not to devote their lives to undesrtanding so many specialist details a regular Linux user takes for granted | 23:33 |
| leo_away | blue|palm: imho, yes | 23:33 |
| yowshi | the sudo dbpkg thking did not work | 23:33 |
| blue|palm | leo_away, i agree with you there | 23:33 |
| leo_away | !it | francy | 23:33 |
| ubotu | francy: Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie! | 23:33 |
| Ackdar | Dimitriid, You realize that unlike windows, Linux is seldom automated | 23:33 |
| Guerra | Paddy_EIRE: I do, hence me triple booting. Care to help me solve the problem? | 23:33 |
| Dimitriid | you want mass adoption? you need to be failproof sadly | 23:33 |
| Pelo | saltydav, browse your way to the folder and check to make sure it is there | 23:33 |
| Dimitriid | now if you DONT want mass adoption then yes, I agree with you | 23:33 |
| Paddy_EIRE | Guerra: which stage are you at | 23:33 |
| Dimitriid | its fine like it is | 23:33 |
| Gunn | bionight im seeing a 128.0GB volume:disk saying 64.3GB free and a Filesystem saying 26.5GB free | 23:33 |
| lmdv | is there somoone from Czech????? | 23:33 |
| saltydav | pelo my xorg file exists but i noticed it's not modifiable by default | 23:33 |
| nickrud | Nothing wrong with only wanting to drive a car, and pay someone else to maintain it, why should a computer be different? | 23:33 |
| blue|palm | leo_away, ubuntu will never succeed, unfortunately, in the mass market till its easier and better in every way... thats whats needed to get these "lazy" people to swap | 23:33 |
| Guerra | Paddy_EIRE: May I IM you the details? This room goes too fast. | 23:33 |
| yowshi | is there an option to downgrade from gutsy back to fiesty? | 23:33 |
| leo_away | i don't believe in mass adoption, i believe everyone should use what works better for them | 23:33 |
| Slart | Guerra: are you using the map-command to make the xp drive primary? | 23:33 |
| Pelo | saltydav, did you open it using sudo ? | 23:34 |
| Paddy_EIRE | Guerra: yeah | 23:34 |
| francy | scusa è la prima volta che lo uso, provo a spostarmi se c'è la faccio | 23:34 |
| RedB14 | i have a problem when i start ubuntu it freez but when i start it in recovery mode it gave errors like : /init: /inti: 158: /sbin/usplash_writer: note found | 23:34 |

| almancora | Gunn: cat /proc/cpuinfo, thank you!! | 23:34 |
| Cornishman | It might be easy to install windows, sadly, for the non-tech user, it's damn hard work keeping the system intact too | 23:34 |
| excalibas | hello, i would like to set up an ftp at home to share some files with friends, can someone help me please? | 23:34 |
| blue|palm | leo_away, but mass adoption is the only thing that will get me what I want: linux + games | 23:34 |
| blue|palm | leo_away, :-P | 23:34 |
| Dimitriid | leo_away, what about people stuck in the middle? I know tons of people who have no OS that "works" for them and live constantly frustrated | 23:34 |
| bionight | Gunn have you successfully booted into both systems? | 23:34 |
| leo_away | blue|palm: buy a ps3 haha | 23:34 |
| doctor_thunder | my internet is wired on gutsy and really slow | 23:34 |
| blue|palm | leo_away, done! | 23:34 |
| saltydav | pelo yes at some point and since then it stop giving me permission | 23:34 |
| Dimitriid | leo_away, windows constantly dragging em down with WGA and other bs, Linux too oscure | 23:34 |
| Dimitriid | etc | 23:34 |
| Guerra | Paddy_EIRE: Getting my IMs? | 23:34 |
| doctor_thunder | has anyone else suffered like me? | 23:34 |
| blue|palm | leo_away, seriously... its the reason why i bought it | 23:34 |
| leo_away | Dimitriid: they can try linspire then | 23:34 |
| Paddy_EIRE | Guerra: hmm | 23:35 |
| Gunn | bionight yes, also I just noticed there is a ubuntu folder in my 128GB volume drive | 23:35 |
| Paddy_EIRE | Guerra: my mistake 1 sec | 23:35 |
| Ackdar | X_X Linspire | 23:35 |
| blue|palm | Dimitriid, linux is *getting* there, but really slowly | 23:35 |
| yowshi | i have an major graphics problem. i upgraded to gutsy and the nvidia drivers rent working | 23:35 |
| Dimitriid | lol | 23:35 |
| leo_away | Ackdar: i agree lol | 23:35 |
| soundray | Cornishman, Dimitriid, leo_away: can you take this discussion to #ubuntu-offtopic please | 23:35 |
| Gunn | bionight inside of it is disks, docs, install, winboot, and uninstall-ubuntu.exe | 23:35 |
| Ackdar | the one linux distro without free upgrades | 23:35 |
| leo_away | soundray: you're right, sorry | 23:35 |
| Pelo | saltydav, use nautilus to get to the file and check the files permission , right click , properties, 2nd tab preferences | 23:35 |
| bionight | Gunn and it shouldn't be there...? | 23:35 |
| SpeakerMania | I am trying to transfer 3.5 gigs of music form my Windows rig to my Ubuntu rig. I have gotten help and I have an FTP server running on my Windows rig. Now what? I have FileZilla on my Ubuntu rig, but what is the host? Would it be the IP of the Windows rig with ":21" at the end for port 21 (which the server is listening on)? | 23:35 |
| Reng | anyone know of this issue, my ubuntu randomly crashes when playing anything types of videos. The the sound on the video is still playing cause i can hear the sound run, but the gui is frozen. anyone have any idea on this? | 23:35 |
| Dimitriid | blue|palm, I agree but I dont think thats a reason to almost come out and say "go back to windows" to frustrated users like nintendo64 | 23:35 |
| Gunn | bionight, well I am not sure, should it ? | 23:35 |
| blue|palm | is it just me, or has gutsy implemented new text rendering? everything looks sweet... | 23:35 |
| Cornishman | soundray: sorry mate, you're right. I'm off anyway, night all. | 23:35 |
| saltydav | ok brb | 23:36 |
| Paddy_EIRE | sorry Guerra please re send your pms | 23:36 |
| blue|palm | Dimitriid, of course | 23:36 |
| preaction | SpeakerMania, why are you using FTP instead of Samba? | 23:36 |
| soundray | Cornishman: good night | 23:36 |
| Pelo | Reng, using desktop effects ? | 23:36 |
| blue|palm | i have a problem with desktop effects in gusty, ive got nvidia-glx-new and no window controls/borders appear | 23:36 |
| Reng | yes, compiz fusion | 23:36 |
| SpeakerMania | preaction, I was told FTP would be the easiest. | 23:36 |
| bionight | Gunn well your partitions should never cross | 23:36 |
| Pelo | Reng, turn off compiz and try again , see what happens | 23:36 |
| IdleOne | when running sudo java -jar /home/idleone/Desktop/GoogleVideoUploader.jar I get this java: xcb_xlib.c:50: xcb_xlib_unlock: Assertion `c->xlib.lock' failed. Aborted . I have tried running without sudo and I also did sudo update-java-alternatives -s java-1.5.0-sun and then tried running the command with same error. any help appreciated | 23:36 |
| preaction | SpeakerMania, you were told wrong, unless for some reason your computers are on different networks | 23:36 |
| Gunn | bionight so you think there "free space" isnt being shared then ? | 23:36 |
| yowshi | i have an major graphics problem. i upgraded to gutsy and the nvidia drivers rent working | 23:37 |
| blue|palm | are we getting an official package for fglrx 8.42? | 23:37 |
| SpeakerMania | preaction, they aren't. :) | 23:37 |
| preaction | !samba | SpeakerMania | 23:37 |
| ubotu | SpeakerMania: samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT | 23:37 |
| reya276 | how can I make the quicktime and windows media videos display correctly, for some reason the QT and WMV all look blue | 23:37 |
| bionight | Gunn well free space is free space it doesnt matter it its free | 23:37 |
| blue|palm | are we getting an official package for fglrx 8.42? <- in gutsy | 23:37 |
| Paddy_EIRE | Dimitriid, http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm | 23:37 |
| Reng | <Pelo>ok, dunno if i cant us linux without the effects | 23:37 |
| * leo_away is leaving. | 23:37 | |
| * leo_away waves. goodbye y'all | 23:37 | |
| bez625 | #eztv | 23:37 |
| soundray | blue|palm: no, these drivers don't work well with the gutsy kernel | 23:38 |
| Pelo | Reng, this is just for diagnose, if it works without compiz, ask the ppl in #compiz-fusion how to fix it | 23:38 |
| Scunizi | blue|palm, install compizconfig-settings-manager and in there you can place a check mark next to decorations. | 23:38 |
| bionight | Gunn have tried using gparted or qtparted after booting? | 23:38 |
| excalibas | i installed pftpd with synaptic but now i dont really know what to do, is there a ftp server with gui? | 23:38 |
| Dimitriid | Paddy_EIRE, As I said, it depends on the objectives, I would think Ubuntu WANTS mass adoption ( well maybe not if they keep trying to stick with compiz-fusion ) | 23:38 |
| Gunn | bionight no, I just installed qtparted and have not rebooted | 23:38 |
| reya276 | take a look so you guys can see what I mean: http://www.apple.com/macosx/guidedtour/large.html | 23:39 |
| RedB14 | Ackdar! | 23:39 |
| bastian | hi.. anyone knows where i you put fonts? its a ttf file btw | 23:39 |
| Dimitriid | in which case they have to at least have a minimum of things ironed out | 23:39 |
| Scunizi | excalibas, I think there is also gproftp that has a gui. | 23:39 |
| Dimitriid | including the install process. | 23:39 |
| blue|palm | soundray, 2.22? if you can tell, why would there be problems with a linux 2.22 kernel? (just curious) | 23:39 |
| Ackdar | RedB14, eh? | 23:39 |
| soundray | Dimitriid: offtopic | 23:39 |
| RedB14 | i have a problem when i start ubuntu it freez but when i start it in recovery mode it gave errors like : /init: /inti: 158: /sbin/usplash_writer: note found | 23:39 |
| soundray | blue|palm: it's an issue with SLUB -- please search the web for more info | 23:39 |
| bionight | Gunn and you run qtparted and it doesnt start? | 23:40 |
| Ackdar | RedB14, why are you singling me out? I don't have a clue | 23:40 |
| bastian | hi.. anyone knows where i you put fonts? its a ttf file btw | 23:40 |
| blue|palm | soundray, thanks for the tip | 23:40 |
| Pelo | bastian, in /home/user/.fonts | 23:40 |
| Ackdar | bastian, hold on | 23:40 |
| Gunn | bionight it starts but it said it did not find any devices (are you root?) and yes I know im root | 23:40 |

| ubotu | Font installation basics here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FontInstallHowto - No fonts in Flash? Install "msttcorefonts" (from !Multiverse), "gsfonts", and "gsfonts-x11". No fonts in MPlayer? see !MPlayer | 23:41 |
| reya276 | bastian: in your home directory create a folder called .fonts and place the fonts there so the path should look like this /home/<username>/.fonts | 23:41 |
| bionight | Gunn under device on left side of qtparted is there words device | 23:41 |
| Dimitriid | Paddy_EIRE, what does mass adoption means to you then? If it means the entire world would learn how to fix a broken xorg.conf file then it will NEVER happen | 23:41 |

| mycroftiv | pyrofreek: your system is hanging when trying to start the xserver, try booting in single user mode and using sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and changing the graphics settings to something as safe as possible like vesa | 23:43 |

| Pelo | reya276, try with mplayer , vlc or xine | 23:43 |
| bionight | Gunn btw what do you normally use to partition | 23:43 |
| Scunizi | Pyrofreek, Gutsy ok... Feisty had an issue on some machines such that you had to add "irqpoll" to the end of the kernel line in the grub file.. maybe the same in 7.10 but I"m not sure.. | 23:43 |
| riotkittie | you can apt-get source <package> | 23:44 |
| Gunn | bionight well when I installed ubuntu I let it set up the partitions | 23:44 |

| SpeakerMania | preaction, when I add the line to my /etc/fstab file that says "//servername/sharename /media/mountname smbfs guest,uid=1000,iocharset=utf8,codepage=unicode,unicode 0 0" the servername is the IP of the windows computer, but what is sharename? | 23:46 |
| yowshi | i have read that it can still frag up because you wont own that folder | 23:46 |
| Dimitriid | Ackdar, have you installed firmware for your card? | 23:46 |
| |neon| | openoffice crashes everytime i try to use it and there are no windows decorations is that a bug with gutsy? | 23:46 |

| === astrolux is now known as ZEA | ||
| === ZEA is now known as ZEA_ | ||
| preaction | SpeakerMania, the name of the windows share you create. have you done windows file sharing before? | 23:47 |
| bionight | Gunn sorry did you install HD yourself | 23:47 |
| Gunn | bionight I am very OCD about my computers and like to make sure everything is up to date, in order and working as intended....having a fog view of if things are set up right or not just bothers me | 23:47 |
| SpeakerMania | preaction, no. | 23:47 |
| preaction | SpeakerMania, you also do not need to mount them permanently, you could just use Nautilus to view them | 23:47 |
| aleka | soundray: UTC:no | 23:47 |
| mycroftiv | |neon|: yes there is a gutsy bug in openoffice try changing your system theme back to 'human' and see if openoffice works then, it is caused by the openoffice.org-gtk stuff from upstream | 23:47 |
| primary | Hello. I came in earlier asking about my iPod...I was given a link, and so I used a program called "GTKPod" to try to put some songs on my iPod...In Ubuntu, the songs show up properly, however when I take my iPod with me it says that there is nothing on there. What happened and how do I fix it? | 23:47 |
| SpeakerMania | preaction, ah well. How do I go about creatign a share on widnows? | 23:47 |
| Gunn | bionight did I install the HD my self as in physically put it into the computer and connect the cables? yes | 23:47 |
| Scunizi | yowshi, what I did was create another small partition and used that as the default /hom when installing fresh. After installation I modified /etc/fstab and changed the location referance of /home to my old one. | 23:47 |
| |neon| | mycroftiv: thx | 23:47 |
| bionight | Gunn and you know that the numbers arent right correcct? | 23:47 |
| preaction | SpeakerMania, ##windows can help you set up windows file sharing. otherwise right-click a folder and go to "Sharing" tab. anything else is ##windows territory | 23:47 |
| Pelo | jack, boot the ubuntu live cd, open menu > system > admin > gnome partiton manager, see of you can locate your partition, they shiould get mounted automaticlay, you can then transfer the data to a usb drive or something | 23:48 |
| soundray | aleka: that's the problem. Ubuntu assumes that the BIOS has the correct time and switches to and from DST. | 23:48 |
| Gunn | bionight well I am not sure at this point, or maybe I am thinking it works a different way | 23:48 |
| Slart | grunky: hmm.. there are some posts about errormessages looking kind of like yours.. seems like people think it might be a driver issue for the network card | 23:48 |
| SpeakerMania | preaction, okay, thanks for your help. I might me back. lol | 23:48 |
| saltydav | how do i check which driver is being used in my computer | 23:48 |
| LabThug | Anyone in here have any experience with EVMS? | 23:48 |
| bionight | Gunn what size drive is it? | 23:48 |
| searayman | can somone help me get java to work, i have latest installed but nothing in firefox for java works | 23:48 |
| Gunn | bionight I thought that my windows system would have its own "space" and my linux system would have its "own space' | 23:48 |
| preaction | SpeakerMania, after you set up the windows share, you can go to Nautilus and look at Places > Network > Windows Network > <your workgroup> > <your computer> > <your share> | 23:48 |
| saltydav | how do i check which ati driver is being used my ubuntu? | 23:48 |
| aleka | soundray: des the UTC need to be set to 'yes' then? | 23:48 |
| saltydav | by* | 23:48 |
| Gunn | bionight its a 200gb drive | 23:48 |
| gnomefreak | searayman: did you install it from our packages? | 23:48 |
| grunky | Slart: interesting .. i finally got my wifi working properly | 23:48 |
| soundray | aleka: if you change the time in your BIOS setup to GMT (that's 23:49 this minute), and set UTC to yes, then it'll work. | 23:48 |
| Pelo | saltydav, it should be listed in the xorg.conf file , if not I don't knwo | 23:48 |
| yowshi | scunizi i am a linux newb i dont kreally understand the fstab stuff | 23:49 |
| searayman | gnomefreak: i believe so but i am a bit lost cause i have tried installing so many different ways now to get it to work | 23:49 |
| saltydav | pelo restricted driver it's ticked but says not in use | 23:49 |
| blue|palm | does gutsy have some new method of rendering text over feisty? | 23:49 |
| jack | Pelo: thanks i will try that | 23:49 |
| gnomefreak | searayman: try sudo update-alternatives --config java | 23:49 |
| Slart | grunky: perhaps it's the wifi-driver that's acting funny | 23:49 |
| gnomefreak | searayman: and choose the one you want to use | 23:49 |
| bionight | Gunn one issue is bios and windows sometimes have prob above 130 something gigs...it happened to me too\ | 23:49 |
| Pelo | saltydav, play around with it, uncheck it , then check it again , did you just try restarting X ? | 23:49 |
| aleka | soundray: I can not do anything to my BIOS, my PS/2 port failed before I enabled Legacy USB support, so I can not access my BIOS settings because my keyboard is inactive until an OS loads | 23:50 |
| bionight | Gunn seems like it doesnt see the whole drive | 23:50 |
| saltydav | pelo i restarted twice checking and unchecking etc same shit | 23:50 |
| searayman | gnomefreak: which one should i choose http://pastebin.com/m4679b23e | 23:50 |
| Gunn | bionight if I install something in windows will it take away from my linux space and vice versa, thats what im tryin to get at | 23:50 |
| Pelo | saltydav, maybe you need the binary | 23:50 |
| Pici | !language | saltydav | 23:50 |

| Pelo | !ati > saltydav check for a private message windows with instructions from ubotu | 23:50 |
| gnomefreak | searayman: i dont have gui atm choose whatever one is the latest version | 23:50 |
| saltydav | pelo where do i get the binary and how do i install it? i have x1600 does it work best? | 23:50 |
| bionight | Gunn where is the free space showing now? | 23:51 |
| gnomefreak | searayman: it should have something that says java 1.6 in it somewhere | 23:51 |
| gnomefreak | searayman: or 1.5 or icedtea | 23:51 |
| ochosi | hi, i'm having troubles with installing emerald. i upgraded today from feisty to gutsy and had beryl and emerald working before. now i'm using compiz fusion (which is also doing fine) but for some reason emerald is not being found in my repos. apt-get says " Package emerald has no installation candidate". what could that be? | 23:51 |
| grunky | Slart: hmm would that also cause memory performance issues? my screen sometimes freezes and goes gray then comes back within a few secs | 23:51 |
| bionight | Gunn do a sudo fdisk 1 | 23:51 |
| Scunizi | yowshi, by creating a new small partition to use as /home and then going into fstab I saw how ubuntu tagged the partiton. I put a # in front of the line for /home and also for the partition listed that was my old /home. I then wrote a new line based on the new /home using the ppid referance for the old /home.. viola! it worked... mostly.. lots of programs that I had loaded needed reloading. | 23:51 |
| Pelo | saltydav, check for a private message windows with instructions from ubotu , that's the best I can do for you, I don'T knwo much about ati cards | 23:51 |

| aleka | soundray: I was assuming since ubuntu was set to sync with time servers, it will auto adjust... didn't know it used the BIOS time | 23:51 |
| searayman | gnomefreak: java-6-sun and java- | 23:51 |

| searayman | which one? | 23:51 |
| gnomefreak | searayman: is sun-java6-* the one you installed? | 23:51 |
| searayman | gnomefreak: 1 /usr/bin/gij-4.2 | 23:52 |

| searayman | gnomefreak: ok | 23:52 |
| soundray | aleka: it does auto-adjust if UTC is set to yes. | 23:52 |
| gnomefreak | searayman: 6 is > 5 right? | 23:52 |
| searayman | gnomefreak: so now restart firefox and try it? | 23:52 |

| soundray | aleka: you can change your BIOS time using Ubuntu, of course. You change /etc/default/rcS to contain UTC=yes, then you make sure the time zone setting is correct (tzselect on gutsy, tzdata on older versions). When you run /etc/init.d/hwclock.sh after that, it should set BIOS to GMT. Do have a look at that script first, though. | 23:59 |
| HellTrader_ | unkonwn command | 23:59 |
| aleka | soundray: Bah, now that I switched UTC to yes in the rcS script, my current time shows 12:59 [ should be 6:59] | 23:59 |
| HellTrader_ | hmmm | 23:59 |

| PuppiesOnAcid | How do I mount a file system so I get access to everything no matter what the permissions? | 23:59 |
