| ubotu | alien: install non-native packages with dpkg. In component main, is optional. Version 8.68 (gutsy), package size 101 kB, installed size 276 kB | 00:00 |
| Pelo | Dr_Link, you don'T rpm are for redhat, ubuntu used deb files, get those or get the source file | 00:00 |
| saltydav | <Dimitriid> thx which is better for compiz fusion? | 00:01 |
| soundray | Dr_Link: avoid it if you can, otherwise use alien ^^ | 00:01 |
| SpeakerMania | preaction, can you help? I run sudo mount -a to mount it, and the shared folder is fine on Windows. I get this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1725/ | 00:01 |
| yowshi | and how do i reinstall the drivers from binaries | 00:01 |
| hase | I just upgraded to ubuntu 7.1 and now the only way the computer will work is if I manually select a generic kernel at startup. Is there a way to permanently select this? | 00:01 |
| preaction | SpeakerMania, why are you mounting when you can just use Nautilus to view it? | 00:01 |
| saltydav | Dimitriid thx which is better for compiz fusion? | 00:01 |
| preaction | incidentally, i told you how earlier | 00:01 |
| SpeakerMania | I'm following the wiki | 00:01 |
| preaction | and i | 00:01 |
| PuppiesOnAcid | Pelo: What flag am i looking for? | 00:01 |
| Pelo | hase, edit the /boot/grub/menu.lst file | 00:01 |
| SpeakerMania | preaction, I'm following the wiki | 00:01 |
| hase | thanks pelo | 00:01 |
| preaction | SpeakerMania, and i'm telling you that the wiki is doing unnecessary things | 00:02 |
| Pelo | PuppiesOnAcid, read write execute | 00:02 |
| Gunn | bionight how bout this, under df -h aside from hda5, and hda1 it has like varrun, varlock, udev, devshm, lrm, ile | 00:02 |
| soundray | hase: there is not 7.1 -- in /boot/grub/menu.lst, look at the "default" option | 00:02 |
| Pelo | hase, edit it very carefully | 00:02 |
| Pyrofreek | pelo: it just says it going to overwrite then below it is just the root@ubuntu:`# | 00:02 |
| preaction | SpeakerMania, you do not need to mount your windows share permanently, you only need to read it temporarily. use nautilus | 00:02 |
| Dimitriid | saltydav, well I think frxgl or whatever the name is, you need to install xgl but its way faster, I think the speed difference is substancial | 00:02 |
| mycroftiv | |neon|: the gutsy openoffice crashing thread at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=584088 has information and workarounds, the openoffice.org-gtk package is the culprit i believe | 00:02 |
| searayman | gnomefreak: u back? | 00:02 |
| soundray | s/not/no/ | 00:02 |
| Gunn | bionight what are those, they use very minimal space | 00:02 |
| Gunn | bionight but they each have 760MB avail | 00:02 |
| m4ssIv3_ATAK | is ssh the best way to connect to a server? | 00:02 |
| Pelo | Pyrofreek, that means you are done, you can either restart or just , start gdm | 00:02 |
| Dimitriid | saltydav, although if you wait a few days/weeks the newest proprietary ati driver will enable aixgl, probably will be on gutsy soon | 00:02 |
| Pelo | HellTrader_, I don'T allow private msg, please talk to me in the channel | 00:02 |
| soundray | aleka: fixed it? | 00:03 |
| Pyrofreek | pelo: how do i start gdm | 00:03 |
| SpeakerMania | preaction, isn't Nautilus the file viewer? | 00:03 |
| Pelo | Pyrofreek, type start gdm | 00:03 |
| preaction | SpeakerMania, yes, so? | 00:03 |
| bionight | Gunn hold on... | 00:03 |
| Dimitriid | sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start | 00:03 |
| Pyrofreek | pelo: haha alright, sorry about my nubbishness | 00:03 |
| searayman | can somone help me get java to work on ubuntu gutsy | 00:03 |
| hase | Ok, this file is kind of confusing to me | 00:03 |
| flush | anyone knows where i can get the mozilla firefox source so i can ./configure with specific options? | 00:03 |
| SpeakerMania | preaction, how would I use that to get files off a share folder? I don't understand... | 00:03 |
| Dr_Link | Alright, well if Red Hat uses RPMs, what about Fedora? it's a free version of Red Hat, can it run RPMs? | 00:04 |
| yowshi | and how do i reinstall the drivers from binaries | 00:04 |
| HellTrader_ | pelo I wish to contact you privately if you allow me please | 00:04 |
| soundray | hase: "default" takes a number as an option. It counts the "title" sections in the file, starting at zero. | 00:04 |
| saltydav | Dimitriid hmm great so i used envy | 00:04 |
| preaction | SpeakerMania, again, i told you before how to do it. You can even use the Places menu in your menubar to look at Network > Windows Network | 00:04 |
| PuppiesOnAcid | Pelo: you've got me stumped! What is it I need to look for? | 00:04 |
| Pelo | HellTrader_, no, if you need help registering go ask in #freenode that's what they are there for | 00:04 |
| Dimitriid | saltydav, if you used envy you'd get it soon enough tooo me thinks | 00:04 |
| saltydav | Dimitriid is envy is it frxgl | 00:04 |
| Guerra | Sigh. Anyone at all care to lend me a hand with GRUB? I've tried countless "howto" articles and forum threads to no avail. | 00:04 |
| preaction | Dr_Link, RPM is a binary package, they must be built for a certain system/libraries, just like dpkg. Fedora uses RPM, yes. | 00:04 |
| saltydav | Dimitriid is envy frxgl | 00:05 |
| SpeakerMania | preaction, must have missed it. Although the folder doesn't show up there. | 00:05 |
| soundray | hase: hint: grep ^title /boot/grub/menu.lst | nl -v 0 | 00:05 |
| hase | The /boot/grub/menu.lst file is all # commented out except for the list itself, so should I just change the order of the list? | 00:05 |
| preaction | SpeakerMania, then it's not visible to ubuntu, or try refreshing once or twice | 00:05 |
| Dimitriid | saltydav, yes but unless its the newest one that im not sure is even out from the ati page get, it wont have aixgl so you'd have to install xgl | 00:05 |
| soundray | hase: no, don't change the # | 00:05 |
| preaction | SpeakerMania, you are clicking on Network and then double-clicking on Windows Network, correct? | 00:05 |
| yowshi | and how do i reinstall the nvidia drivers from binaries | 00:05 |
| Pelo | PuppiesOnAcid, look for the options that let you specify the permissions, for reading writing and excecuting files, but sudo mount /dev/sd** /mountpoint should let the person who mounted have full access | 00:06 |
| SpeakerMania | preaction, yes. | 00:06 |
| HellTrader_ | Pelo I am all new to this be patient please with me - I am Sandra | 00:06 |
| Dimitriid | Dr_Link, Fedora is very similar to Red Hat, and is in fact one of the main rpm based distros | 00:06 |
| searayman | java application just dont show up for me in firefox any ideas? | 00:06 |
| preaction | SpeakerMania, that window should show all the Windows Network computers on your network | 00:06 |

| soundray | hase: I think the easiest way to fix your problem would be to run 'sudo apt-get --purge remove linux-image-2.6.22-14-386' | 00:08 |
| saltydav | butercups : do i need to install the file xgl from synaptic in order to use 8.42.3 driver properly after installing from envy? | 00:08 |

| zetheroo | anyone? | 00:09 |
| yowshi | how do i reinstall the nvidia drivers from binaries | 00:09 |
| buttercups | saltydav, no xgl is not needed with the 8.42 version | 00:09 |
| hase | says couldn't find this package | 00:09 |
| preaction | SpeakerMania, what does 'mount -tsmbfs -o username=<your windows username> //<windows server>/<sharename> <mountpoint>' <- say? | 00:09 |
| soundray | hase: please pastebin menu.lst again after that, it should update automatically | 00:09 |

| hase | ok, removing, one sec | 00:09 |

| Pyrofreek | pelo: the start gdm command isnt working | 00:10 |
| bionight | Gunn no it appears normal somewhat i'm looking at | 00:10 |
| Dimitriid | saltydav, i think you have the aixgl driver installed already, compiz-fusion should run be able to run | 00:10 |
| whyameye | yowshi, one way would be to make nvidia-glx-new for reinstallation in synaptic | 00:10 |
| saltydav | butercups, what's the difference between 8.42.3 driver and one in the restricted driver maneger? | 00:10 |
| Pelo | Pyrofreek, just restart the sudo reboot | 00:10 |

| saltydav | butercups, what's the difference between 8.42.3 driver and one in the restricted driver manager? | 00:10 |
| hase | http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/43484/ | 00:10 |
| buttercups | saltydav, just newer and supports compiz without xgl | 00:10 |
| bionight | Gunn I would also try having Gparted and reboot http://gparted-livecd.tuxfamily.org/ | 00:10 |
| Guerra | saltydav: the restricted one is 8.42.3 isn't it? | 00:11 |

| Phenom | Gentlepeople. Upgrade to Gutsy killed sound; I have followed help link given via command !sound, to no avail; My VM's will not initialize, hopefully due to the sound issue. Has any one come in with similar issues/resolutions? Ubuntu detects sounds cards and alsa is configured correctly. Any ideas would be appreciated. | 00:11 |
| Phenom | !sound | 00:11 |
| Pici | !caps | josh_ | 00:11 |
| 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 | 00:11 |
| soundray | hase: well done, the generic kernel is now on top of the list, and with the "default 0" setting, it should boot that one automatically. Reboot to test. | 00:11 |
| ubotu | josh_: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too. | 00:11 |
| josh_ | BUT CAN YOU READ UPPER? | 00:11 |
| hase | Ok, be right back | 00:11 |
| Gunn | bionight but then what would I do, I'd have to whipe out my system and start all over ? | 00:11 |

| Gunn | bionight well I'll just assume everything is running fine | 00:14 |
| whyameye | Guerra, is the xp partition mounted? If so, do you know what it is called? If you don't know, type "mount" at the command line and find it. | 00:14 |
| bionight | Gunn I think so.... | 00:14 |
| soundray | Guerra: you may have to use the map directive for grub to get this to work. I've never used that myself, but it's documented. | 00:14 |
| Guerra | whyameye: Yes it is mounted as media/sdb | 00:14 |

| Gunn | bionight are there any programs/commands I should get/use to keep everything up to date, or scan for unwanted files (adawre in windows) | 00:15 |

| bionight | Gunn unwanted in linux? | 00:16 |
| soundray | Guerra: "info grub" (you may have to install grub-doc) | 00:16 |
| Gunn | bionight in other words, good system maint type things | 00:16 |
| whyameye | Guerra, well, you could try both and see which works. In any case, you need to edit /boot/grub/menu.lst as root. | 00:16 |

| whyameye | Guerra: it's a shot in the dark but you might try root(0,0) instead of root(1,0) for the xp boot in menu.lst. I doubt it will work but depending on how the map command works...maybe. | 00:23 |
| niux | Burlynn: k thanks | 00:23 |

| LordKow | well it has a network connection issue which has baffled me for the last couple of weeks. I know a reformat or even a "dirty reinstall" would fix it but i really want to figure | 00:25 |
| LordKow | it out without doing that | 00:25 |
| Gunn | Flannel ok thx so the apt-get update just updates all the versions and the apt-get dist-upgrade pulls those updates and updates the newer versions of the repos I have | 00:26 |
| jeffrey | neon, works for me? have you tried a freshi | 00:26 |
| whyameye | Guerra I have an idea I think might work. First we need to edit menu.lst. If you aren't sure how, type at the command line: "sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst" | 00:26 |
| Pyrofreek | I just installed ubuntu from the alternate cd, and when i boot up when the loading bar finishes, i just get hung at a black screen. ive tried configuring through sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg but it did not work | 00:26 |

| bionight | lordkow what is it saying | 00:26 |

| mediabuntu | let me know how it goes jack i once had a nice experience recovering my partitions | 00:27 |
| fnx | i'm on gutsy | 00:27 |
| LordKow | its not really "saying" anything. The problem is the HTTP protocol is not working. Web pages will not load (firefox or ie7), not a single application that uses the HTTP protocol works. ping works perfectly fine, whether it be an IP or a domain name | 00:27 |
| amazen720 | so no help here huh? | 00:27 |
| sensae | The XFCE desktop manager loads, then GDM loads over it, and I have to go to desktop settings and tell it to use the xfce dm every time I log in | 00:27 |

| whyameye | Guerra: then there is a syntax error. | 00:32 |
| Gunn | flannel I am only seeing it for Edgy and Feisty | 00:32 |
| Guerra | whyameye: What do you suggest? | 00:33 |
| amazen720 | Zetheroo: how do I get my system specs I'm a newbie to linux | 00:33 |
| whyameye | Guerra: the line looks like this? rootnoverify (hd1,0) | 00:33 |

| Dimitriid | FuzzplugJones try setting firefox to have a larger minimum font size | 00:33 |
| Flannel | Gunn: Yes, the repos have been updated, but not the Howtos. Follow the Feisty versions, but replace 'feisty' with 'gutsy' in the sources.list line | 00:33 |
| abyss | 7.10 is which release? | 00:33 |
| FuzzplugJones | Dimitriid, did that. | 00:33 |
| Pyrofreek | I just installed ubuntu from the alternate cd, and when i boot up when the loading bar finishes, i just get hung at a black screen. ive tried configuring through sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg but it did not work | 00:33 |
| dansku | I'm trying to remove some softwares, but apt-get remove won't remove them, what shoul I do? for example gtkpod | 00:33 |
| Pici | abyss: Gutsy Gibbon | 00:33 |
| Gunn | flannel ok | 00:33 |
| amazen720 | zetheroo: give me sec | 00:33 |
| Dimitriid | FuzzplugJones try a different font, how does that look? | 00:33 |
| Flannel | Gunn: Oh wait | 00:34 |
| mediabuntu | yowshi: simply please the resolution there like this, "1280x1024@60" "1400x1050@60" "1280x960@60" "1152x864@75" "1024x768@43" | 00:34 |
| LordKow | "sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.bak && sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf" if you want to edit the file yowshi | 00:34 |
| Paddy_EIRE | dansku, tried 'sudo aptitude remove gtkpod' | 00:34 |
| soundray | !wifi > iecdannyboy, read the private message from ubotu and see if that helps. If you still have trouble, come back and ask more specifically. Most Belkin devices can be made to work. | 00:34 |
| Flannel | Gunn, abyss: http://wiki.awn-project.org/index.php?title=DistributionGuides | 00:34 |
| Dimitriid | FuzzplugJones I still can't get in the zone with Firefox myself though, some sites look horrible and I have to lower the font size | 00:34 |
| adac | i have an athlon 64 2 Ghz and 500mb ram. I changed from feisty 32 bit to gutsy 64 bit. Now i must say somehow the whole system runs very slow. I disabled comiz completely. no effect. Any ideas what is wrong? | 00:34 |
| FuzzplugJones | Dimitriid, i mean even the menubars, etc are too small, and the message list in thunderbird, the font settings don't change that | 00:34 |
| mediabuntu | yowushi know what i mean ? | 00:34 |
| Flannel | Gunn: the reason it hasn't been updated on that wiki, is because that wiki is deprecated I suppose. That link above is the current one (with Gutsy instructions) | 00:34 |
| mediabuntu | mabe not :) | 00:35 |
| Dimitriid | FuzzplugJones do you use KDE or Gnome or somehing else? | 00:35 |
| soundray | adac: any processes hogging the CPU? | 00:35 |
| whyameye | Guerra: did a quote or double-quote sneak in there? I gotta go but I am pretty sure there is a typo somewhere or other.... | 00:35 |

| dansku | Paddy_EIRE, still not removing | 00:35 |
| adac | soundray: no | 00:35 |
| Paddy_EIRE | dansku, well.. any errors would be helpful | 00:36 |
| Guerra | whyameye: Nope. rootrootnoverify (hd1,0) | 00:36 |
| Dimitriid | FuzzplugJones im not sure then, I think I saw somebody with gutsy font problems in the forums you might wanna check that out | 00:36 |
| FuzzplugJones | ok | 00:36 |
| soundray | adac: is it stuck at a reduced frequency? | 00:36 |

| Hubris2 | I'm having problems with an external hard drive. I have partitioned into 2/3 ext3, and 1/3 FAT32 (for connectivity with other computers).

| Guerra | Flannel, sigh, I wish there was some kind of definitive guide to this. | 00:39 |
| PriceChild | LordKow, the server that shows up in the messages is the server you are on. | 00:40 |
| zetheroo | mediabuntu: I believe so.... it gives me the permission to me hateful towards MS | 00:40 |
| LordKow | ah really? | 00:40 |
| KlrSPz | bacjon, state the problem | 00:40 |
| hmuller | PuppiesOnAcid: sudo su | 00:40 |
| bacjon | i'm having trouble installing ubuntu on my virtual machine. i got it to load and got the boot menu ( my choices are [start or install ubuntu], [start ubuntu in safe graphics mode] [install with driver update cd] [OEM install (for manufacturers)], [check for defects], [memory test], [boot from first hard disk]) and i can move the highlight from one choice to the other but when i press enter it does'nt do anything | 00:40 |
| mediabuntu | like 775 701 600 170 | 00:40 |
| Flannel | Guerra: there is. http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/html_node/index.html | 00:40 |
| searayman | gnomefreak: back? | 00:40 |
| hmuller | PuppiesOnAcid: then cd into the directory | 00:40 |
| LordKow | its been a while since i was an IRC regular | 00:40 |
| LordKow | and there they are | 00:40 |
| searayman | can somone help me get java working? | 00:40 |
| KlrSPz | bacjon, hmm.. can't help you actually, i tried once to install via virtual machine and it would never actually boot either | 00:40 |
| mediabuntu | wtf | 00:40 |
| Hubris2 | mediabuntu: I can chmod 777 - but I still only have read access. I assume I can't change ownership because it isn't supported under FAT32? | 00:41 |
| PriceChild | !netsplit | mediabuntu | 00:41 |
| abyss | 7.10 is Gusty_ | 00:41 |
| abyss | ? | 00:41 |
| PriceChild | (ubotu'll take a little while to catch up) | 00:41 |
| PuppiesOnAcid | hmuller: But what if I just wanted to access it wityh my normal user, which I do? | 00:41 |
| hmuller | I'm looking for any good pointers towards information on linux-ubuntu-modules | 00:41 |
| PriceChild | abyss, yes | 00:41 |
| Gunn | flannel is this a proper way to set it up http://morakville.wordpress.com/2007/10/20/how-to-install-avant-window-navigator-awn/ | 00:41 |
| Kitsun | I managed to stuff up compiz real bad, how can I change it back to how it was when I installed Ubuntu? | 00:41 |
| * Paddy_EIRE totally agrees with Flannel | 00:41 | |
| hmuller | PuppiesOnAcid: then you should learn the chmod command, I'll give you an example ... | 00:41 |
| Scunizi | Kitsun, check in #ubuntu-effects | 00:41 |
| amazen720 | zetheroo: Pentium 4 cpu 2.00Gz, Frequency 1990.327 MHz, L2 Cache 512 Kb, Memory total: 439 MiB, HDD 80 GB | 00:41 |
| mediabuntu | Hubris2: i see. | 00:42 |
| KlrSPz | Kitsun, uninstall it ? | 00:42 |
| xLizax | hey guys my wireless internet doesn't works on ubuntu? | 00:42 |
| xLizax | can anyone help me please. | 00:42 |
| hmuller | PuppiesOnAcid: (as root) chmod 777 <directory> | 00:42 |
| Kitsun | KlrSPz: I tried that, diddnt work | 00:42 |
| Paddy_EIRE | !wifi | xLizax | 00:42 |
| zetheroo | amazen720: do you know what type of graphics system you have? | 00:42 |
| usr13 | xLizax: what does sudo iwconfig say>? | 00:42 |
| bacjon | hmm i got the server to install just fine but the desktop wont work, i tried re-downloading the iso but it didn't help | 00:42 |
| hmuller | PuppiesOnAcid: That gives the world permissions to that directory, so be warned! | 00:42 |
| mediabuntu | Hubris2: tryed browsing it as root 8gksudo nautilus. | 00:43 |
| xLizax | usr13, i'll be back in a min. | 00:43 |
| xLizax | i gotta reboot. | 00:43 |
| xLizax | sorry | 00:43 |
| YBH_1 | Endgame trailer they want you dead http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pkgGOFXuYPw | 00:43 |
| KlrSPz | purty purty please, anyone a bridge guru that can help my problem? | 00:43 |
| Flannel | Gunn: Use this one : http://wiki.awn-project.org/index.php?title=DistributionGuides | 00:43 |
| abyss | where i get the kiba-dock package? | 00:43 |
| usr13 | xLizax: What wireless card do you have? | 00:43 |
| soundray | adac: can you give an example of what's slow? | 00:43 |
| KlrSPz | abyss, iirc i think trevino's has it | 00:43 |
| cwill747 | irc | 00:43 |
| hmuller | KlrSPz: I don't play bridge, spades is my game | 00:43 |
| cwill747 | oops my bad | 00:43 |
| mediabuntu | brb | 00:43 |
| PuppiesOnAcid | hmuller: But is there any way i can just like "be the owner of that directory" | 00:43 |
| usr13 | xLizax: What are you rebooting? | 00:43 |
| hmuller | that was only a bad joke | 00:43 |
| PuppiesOnAcid | hmuller: like mount the filesystem "as a user" | 00:44 |
| abyss | who is trevino`s? | 00:44 |
| LordKow | PuppiesOnAcid, chown user:group <directory> | 00:44 |
| amazen720 | ATI Technologies Inc PCI Bridge [IGP 340] (prog-if 00[Normal decode]) | 00:44 |
| hmuller | PuppiesOnAcid: Then maybe you want to learn about chown... | 00:44 |
| Scunizi | bacjon, not sure who you're addressing you comment to or maybe its a new comment. but "server" doesn't have a gui unless you install one post-facto. | 00:44 |
| Paddy_EIRE | abyss, its a repo.. | 00:44 |
| PuppiesOnAcid | hmph. | 00:44 |
| LordKow | may need a -R but that would change ownership recursively throughout that directory | 00:44 |
| amazen720 | is that it? | 00:44 |
| PuppiesOnAcid | But will that affect the actual permissions in Macos X? | 00:44 |
| Ragewarp | when ubuntu starts up and the loading bar is done, i just get a blank screen, this is my first boot up | 00:45 |
| amazen720 | did I give you the right info? | 00:45 |
| abyss | any site to this repo? | 00:45 |
| LordKow | depends on the filesystem, but if its the mac filesystem (what is it HPFS or something like that?) then i doubt it | 00:45 |
| Sephiroth | soundray: /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.22-14/include/linux does not include a version.h file that this application I'm trying to install needs. I tried reinstalling that package, but no go. | 00:45 |
| Flannel | abyss: its right there on the page: http://wiki.awn-project.org/index.php?title=DistributionGuides | 00:45 |
| usr13 | Ragewarp: Do you have a flashing cursor? | 00:45 |
| bacjon | scunizi, the server installation isnt my problum, its the desktop version that i cant get to go past the boot menu | 00:45 |
| sethk | LordKow, The Mac file system isn't HPFS. HPFS is the predecessor to NTFS in IBM OS/2. | 00:46 |
| zetheroo | amazen720: thing is I have never had jumpy video playback on any of the machines I have installed Gutsy on -- and one of them was a Pentium 3.... slower than yours... with about the same amount of RAM | 00:46 |
| Flannel | bacjon: Try the alternate CD | 00:46 |
| LordKow | o | 00:46 |
| hmuller | PuppiesOnAcid: If LordKow's example was too perplexing then: chown PuppiesOnAcid <directory> | 00:46 |
| LordKow | well whatever the mac os filesystem is, i dont remember. :P | 00:46 |
| Ragewarp | usr13: it flashes for a split second then goes away | 00:46 |
| soundray | Sephiroth: look under /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.22-14-generic/ then | 00:46 |
| Scunizi | bacjon, ah ok.. I knew I missed something there... Flannel's right try the alternate Cd | 00:46 |
| Ragewarp | usr13: ive gone through dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 00:46 |
| PuppiesOnAcid | LordKow: hfsplus | 00:46 |
| bacjon | ok thanks ill go try that | 00:46 |
| Sephiroth | I tried telling it to use that directory, but it told me that even if it were to compile, it wouldn't run under the running kernel. | 00:47 |
| amazen720 | zetheroo: does having compiz installed have anything to do with it? | 00:47 |
| usr13 | Ragewarp: So that was the last successful task you completed? | 00:47 |
| Hubris2 | mediabuntu: When I view the volume as root through Nautilus.....permissions are fine - I have read/write....however I still can't change the owner. How should fat32 volumes normally be mounted....isn't it supposed to be automatic? If the system auto-mounted while I was on....wouldn't it make me the owner? | 00:47 |
| hase | nick __hase | 00:47 |
| === hase is now known as __hase | ||
| soundray | Sephiroth: what's "it"? | 00:47 |
| PuppiesOnAcid | I am still getting permission denied even when I do chown | 00:47 |
| Sephiroth | VMware Server. | 00:47 |
| PuppiesOnAcid | It says the file system is read only | 00:47 |
| adac | soundray: opening apps for example. this takes simply to long. changing between apps and windows is slow as hell too | 00:47 |
| zetheroo | amazen720: all the machines I use have compiz as well | 00:47 |
| Ragewarp | usr13: yes i went through that, and rebooted and got the same thing | 00:47 |
| SpeakerMania | Does anyone know how long it will take 3.5 gigs of music to transfer over my network? I am using shared folders. | 00:47 |
| Gunn | flannel ok its installed, how would I go about finding it to launch it/show it | 00:48 |
| Hubris2 | SpeakerMania: Is it 100 meg network? | 00:48 |
| hmuller | PuppiesOnAcid: your issue is like an onion | 00:48 |
| KlrSPz | Hubris2, look at the fstab options, and also look at your permissions | 00:48 |
| soundray | adac: always or intermittently? | 00:48 |
| zetheroo | amazen720: you may want to boot up with the Live session off of the CD --- and then go online and try to view something on youtube | 00:48 |
| usr13 | Ragewarp: So you are just left with a console screen? | 00:48 |
| PuppiesOnAcid | hmuller: Actually the file system is read only | 00:48 |
| SpeakerMania | Hubris2, I don't know. How can I find out? | 00:48 |
| PuppiesOnAcid | So i don't think I can do anything to it | 00:48 |
| Ragewarp | usr13: just pure black, nothing at all | 00:48 |
| PuppiesOnAcid | That is probably my problem | 00:48 |
| PuppiesOnAcid | hmuller: How so? | 00:48 |
| KlrSPz | zetheroo, amazen720, you'll have to install the flash plugin first iirc | 00:48 |
| amazen720 | zetheroo: what are your settings for video memory? | 00:48 |
| adac | soundray: opening apps always. changing windows sometimes ok...most of the time | 00:48 |
| FuzzplugJones | Dimitriid, i raised ubuntu to 80dpi and made my system fonts smaller and it seems to have achieved the result i wanted. | 00:48 |
| Flannel | Gunn: I have no idea. Check the rest of that site out (I saw a FAQ and a tutorial thing), I imagine theyve got instructions on three | 00:48 |
| hmuller | PuppiesOnAcid: Well you could mount it r/w, depending on what the filesystem is | 00:48 |
| Gunn | flannel when I click on AWN manager it does not come up | 00:49 |
| usr13 | Ragewarp: What happens when you do Ctrl-Alt-F1 | 00:49 |
| KlrSPz | does anyone know how to successfully bridge a wireless and wired nic? i want to have my xbox pass through a switch, through the pc, and over the wireless.. i've had it working in windows fine, trying to get it working in linux.. I've read around, and can't get it to passthru | 00:49 |
| Chris1 | I have a question about installing Ubuntu. How do I install Ubuntu? I downloaded ubuntu-7.10-desktop-i386 from the site and did as it told me (burn to a cd) but it still doesnt work? | 00:49 |
| Ragewarp | usr13: i dont know, ill try now | 00:49 |
| Hubris2 | SpeakerMania: Look at your router/switch. If it says 10/100 on it.....any recent computer should also be 100 meg. If so.....it'll probably be 5-10 minutes to copy a few gigs. | 00:49 |
| Guerra | Chris1, what happens? | 00:49 |
| Dimitriid | FuzzplugJones, Oh yea! I always forgot about that DPI setting yes I tried it also. | 00:49 |
| usr13 | Ragewarp: or Ctrl-Alt-F2 Ctrl-Alt-F3 Ctrl-Alt-F4 Ctrl-Alt-F5 Ctrl-Alt-F6 or Ctrl-Alt-F7 ? | 00:49 |
| amazen720 | Klrspz: I have the falsh plugin already installed | 00:49 |
| Chris1 | It tells me that ''Could not find CD image'' | 00:49 |
| LordKow | Hubris2, i may be wrong but does FAT32 support file permissions? | 00:49 |
| LordKow | (i dont think it does) | 00:50 |
| zetheroo | amazen720: on one machine it has shared video memory, on another one it has 64 MB video mem... and on another one I have up to 512 MB for video.... | 00:50 |
| adac | soundray: I mean feisty worked really well...but with this gutsy I'm not able to work anymore | 00:50 |
| pipegeek | I want a sammic | 00:50 |
| zetheroo | amazen720: they all work | 00:50 |
| pipegeek | h | 00:50 |
| Gunn | Anyone using AWN have a problem with it, when I click AWN manager nothing comes up | 00:50 |
| hmuller | PuppiesOnAcid: I just scrolled up and read what you told LordKow... if hfsplus does not have r/w support, then you are stuck | 00:50 |
| Guerra | chris1, what program did you use to burn the iso? | 00:50 |
| KlrSPz | Chris1, did you burn it as an image, or just as a file on the disc? | 00:50 |
| soundray | adac: I understand | 00:50 |
| llua | can i use my DVI output on an ATI x300 without editing manually the xorg file. does the new gui pick it up | 00:50 |
| Sephiroth | Ahh, there we go. I figured it out. | 00:50 |
| Chris1 | InfraRecorder i think i might of just burnt as a file | 00:50 |
| amazen720 | zetheroo: how I check within ubuntu the memory size of my video? | 00:51 |
| KlrSPz | yeah, that's wrong :S | 00:51 |
| Chris1 | ok. thanks you. | 00:51 |
| PuppiesOnAcid | It's crazy that I am being denied permission to a folder that belongs to a user that does not exist on my system | 00:51 |
| SpeakerMania | Hubris2, I can't find any such numbers. It is a modem/router from Quest if that matters. | 00:51 |
| KlrSPz | because you don't own it | 00:51 |
| Flannel | Gunn: http://wiki.awn-project.org/index.php?title=FAQ | 00:51 |
| usr13 | PuppiesOnAcid: That's normal | 00:51 |
| Ragewarp | usr13: nothing happens when pressing alt-ctrl-1 | 00:51 |
| KlrSPz | PuppiesOnAcid, use root to chown it | 00:51 |
| usr13 | Ragewarp: Ctrl-Alt-F2 Ctrl-Alt-F3 Ctrl-Alt-F4 Ctrl-Alt-F5 Ctrl-Alt-F6 or Ctrl-Alt-F7 ? | 00:51 |
| amazen720 | zetheroo: my bios is set to 64 UMA, but I need to check what it is using in ubuntu | 00:52 |
| usr13 | Ragewarp: F1 mpt 1 | 00:52 |
| mediabuntu | Hubris2: I don't know . guess so | 00:52 |
| usr13 | Ragewarp: F1 not 1 | 00:52 |
| PuppiesOnAcid | usr13: Are computer hackers people that break things like that? | 00:52 |
| PuppiesOnAcid | usr13: is that what computer hackers do? | 00:52 |
| LordKow | Ubuntu should support HFSPlus+ read and write | 00:52 |
| PuppiesOnAcid | KlrSPz: Can't | 00:52 |
| Ragewarp | usr13: thats what i meant, i did try f1 soory | 00:52 |
| KlrSPz | hackers do not break anything | 00:52 |
| KlrSPz | crackers do | 00:52 |
| LordKow | er HFS+ :P | 00:52 |
| KlrSPz | go do your research | 00:52 |
| zetheroo | amazen720: do you know if your graphics are onboard or on a seperate agp slot? | 00:52 |
| Ragewarp | usr13: i tried 1 through | 00:52 |
| xLizax | usr13 sorry what did u wanted me to do? | 00:52 |
| Ragewarp | usr13: through 4 | 00:53 |
| _neon_ | everyone sleeping at openoffice anyway i really need this going os is uselees without a working office suite, anyway every time i try opening one of the apps from oo it does not work i did some reading on the ubuntu bugs and there are a couple talilking about the issue tho no solutiion is oofered | 00:53 |
| usr13 | Ragewarp: F1 not PuppiesOnAcid You can change the permission or ownership of the file. | 00:53 |
| hmuller | linux-ubuntu-modules ---> anyone know anything about said package? | 00:53 |
| usr13 | xLizax: what does sudo iwconfig say? | 00:53 |
| Hubris2 | SpeakerMania: I imagine it's 10/100. Try copying some files....see how long it takes. You can verify your speeds based on how long it takes. | 00:53 |
| PuppiesOnAcid | usr13: How though? the file system is mounted as read only | 00:53 |
| amazen720 | zetheroo: how do I figure that out? I'm on laptop, so i guess it's onboard right? | 00:53 |
| KlrSPz | does anyone know how to successfully bridge a wireless and wired nic? i want to have my xbox pass through a switch, through the pc, and over the wireless.. i've had it working in windows fine, trying to get it working in ubuntu.. I've read around, and can't get it to passthru | 00:53 |
| Paddy_EIRE | !info linux-ubuntu-modules | 00:53 |
| zetheroo | amazen720: whats your laptop? | 00:53 |
| Ragewarp | usr13: thowse commands did nothing | 00:53 |
| Hubris2 | mediabuntu: I don't have an entry in the fstab for the fat32 partition | 00:54 |
| usr13 | PuppiesOnAcid: use sudo | 00:54 |
| xLizax | usr13 ... | 00:54 |
| pipegeek | KlrSPz: if your wireless card doesn't support operating in "promiscuous mode" (and a lot of them don't), then it's impossible. | 00:54 |

| SpeakerMania | Hubris2, Well, I started the transfer a little while ago, and it is almost done. I just wanted to know if there was a definite transmission rate. | 00:54 |

| xLizax | no wireless extension | 00:56 |
| zetheroo | amazen720: so there should be no probs there | 00:56 |

| mcquaid | are there any programs that convert to flash? also if I upload it to youtube I guess it's going to reencode it again to flash, which isn't ideal being a second generation flash clip | 00:58 |

| pipegeek | emet: I may be lying | 01:00 |
| Ragewarp | usr13: there is no error message, it just goes to the ubuntu logo and the load bar, the bar loads then goes right to the blank screen | 01:00 |
| BlackPhoenix313 | has anyone had any problems with compiz-fusion for gutsy? | 01:00 |

| mike5805 | umm | 01:02 |
| Ragewarp | usr13: ok ill try that | 01:02 |
| Gunn | bnubuntull but with AWN you cant hardly see the bottom panel | 01:02 |

| swimme1 | hey guys my fstab has errors, is there a nice way to fix it? | 01:02 |
| mike5805 | and look for restriced drivers | 01:02 |
| Ragewarp | usr13: so completly overwrite the /disk/... | 01:02 |
| mcquaid | or maybe some of you have suggestions of sites you have used for uploading tutorials | 01:02 |
| Paddy_EIRE | Gunn, then dont use the bottom panel | 01:02 |
| usr13 | Ragewarp: No, just the xorg.conf file. | 01:03 |
| Gunn | gnubuntull besides the bottom panel stores stuff that the AWN panel does | 01:03 |
| LordKow | DrHalan, XGL is needed for compiz to work but im not sure if disabling compiz the ubuntu way (via Desktop Effects) disables xgl but that link i posted should guarantee XGL being disabled. | 01:03 |
| soundray | !nvidia > __hase | 01:03 |
| pipegeek | Yeah, actually.... is there any sort of gui fstab-editor in ubuntu? I haven't found one.... gparted displays mountpoints, but doesn't let you change 'em | 01:03 |
| pipegeek | again, I'm talking gutsy | 01:03 |
| rsfriends | hey, i have seen some people they get animated toolbar, how can i do that? | 01:03 |
| xLizax | usr13 are you busy? | 01:03 |
| gnubuntu11 | Gunn: yes i know. AWN is still beta , so i wait a bit. | 01:03 |
| Ademan | pipegeek: just search the repositories for fstab, i know there's one | 01:03 |
| usr13 | Ragewarp: When you get booted up. Look to see where the root filesystem is mounted. Probably something like /disk/hda1 or somethibng like that | 01:03 |
| mike5805 | i like kooldock | 01:03 |
| mcquaid | damn, my connection died for a sec, not sure if anyone saw what i typed | 01:03 |
| gogeta | rsfriends turn on compiz-fusion | 01:03 |
| Gunn | paddy_EIRE if I decided I wanted my bottom panel back how would I do that | 01:03 |
| mike5805 | its for kde but will work in gnome | 01:04 |
| usr13 | xLizax: No... | 01:04 |
| swimme1 | pipegeek: yeah, I changed some partitions and now it "detects errors" because the old partitions are still listed in fstab... | 01:04 |
| LordKow | pipegeek, fstab is one of those things where if you do not understand the file by looking at it in a text editor then you should probably not change it | 01:04 |
| pipegeek | :rolleyes: that's dumb | 01:04 |
| lgc | gogeta, it definitely does...performance downgrades notably with time. | 01:04 |
| rsfriends | i have compiz fusion on | 01:04 |
| mcquaid | well anyway, i made a tutorial for a friend who is new to linux with recordmydesktop. it came out somewhat large at 135 megs | 01:04 |
| BlackPhoenix313 | am I going to have to disable the ati drivers before using compiz fusion | 01:04 |
| xLizax | usr13 can you help me fixing my wifi, please? | 01:04 |
| Toufas | anyone please? | 01:04 |
| Paddy_EIRE | Gunn, right click an existing panel and 'new panel' | 01:04 |
| usr13 | xLizax: Yes | 01:04 |
| LordKow | it can leave linux completely unbootable, nothing | 01:04 |
| mcquaid | i was thinking on converting it to flash to up load to youtube or whatever | 01:04 |
| Ademan | pipegeek: pysdm is what it's called | 01:04 |
| gogeta | lgc nebver had that happon on my pcs | 01:04 |
| swimme1 | LordKow: hey I changed my partitions and I could manually fix up fstab but I am lazy. Is there a fast way to regenrate it? | 01:04 |
| pipegeek | LordKow: not true. Some of the basic things in the fstab are things which most people can understand, but they daren't edit the file manually because of the things they *don't* understand | 01:04 |
| mike5805 | yes | 01:04 |
| xLizax | usr13 thank you. | 01:04 |
| mcquaid | do any utils convert to flash? | 01:04 |
| pipegeek | Ademan: thank you | 01:04 |
| gogeta | lgc unless i install more services | 01:04 |
| Paddy_EIRE | Gunn, or type 'gnome-panel& exit' in to the terminal | 01:05 |
| mike5805 | h/o blackphoenix | 01:05 |
| gnubuntu11 | Gunn: Where can I get the lastest Version for Gutsy to try? | 01:05 |
| LordKow | pipegeek, maybe but i dont want to get the blame for telling someone to edit a file and then their ubuntu is broke. | 01:05 |
| mcquaid | but i guess doing that youtube will reconvert it again so it'll end up being a second generation flash | 01:05 |
| pipegeek | LordKow: anyway, I don't want a gui fstab editor because I need one, I want one because I'm annoyed that I have to fire up vi for something so simple and basic | 01:05 |
| jeffrey | im on a restricted driver for my video card, will that affect its performance in a bad way ? | 01:05 |

| LordKow | pipegeek, nano! :) | 01:05 |

| mcquaid | gogeta, ya i was going to try avidemux didn't think it encoded flash though. i'll check | 01:06 |

| mike5805 | yes it is | 01:06 |

| gogeta | lgc well i dont install mutch in the way of more services | 01:06 |
| mike5805 | compiz fusion is the new one though | 01:06 |
| jeffrey | chris0 its no longer beryl | 01:06 |
| Chris0 | thank you mike5805 | 01:06 |
| gogeta | lgc but if you use vmware it uses some | 01:06 |
| Ragewarp | usr13: alright i though i knew what youwere talking about, but i didnt. can you run me through it | 01:06 |
| mcquaid | is there a site that's better besides youtube for uploading a tutorial. the res is kinda lacking with youtube | 01:06 |
| LordKow | pipegeek, ubuntu is setup in such a way that fstab should never need to be edited | 01:06 |
| mike5805 | no prob | 01:06 |
| jeffrey | chris0, its compbiz | 01:06 |
| Chris0 | Oh ok. thanks jeffrey | 01:06 |
| mediabuntu | compiz is the future | 01:06 |
| mike5805 | yes it is | 01:06 |
| jeffrey | chris0, it doesnt come installed by default also | 01:06 |
| pipegeek | LordKow: false. It got it wrong with a few of my non-ubuntu partitions. | 01:06 |
| gogeta | lgc all depends on what you setup | 01:06 |
| pipegeek | LordKow: after an upgrade, which it should be able to handle. | 01:07 |

| swimme1 | LordKow: I changed my partitions and now fstab is messed up. Is there a program taht auto detects it? | 01:07 |
| pipegeek | LordKow: anyway, the installer expects the user to know what a mountpoint is, so why hide them from that point on? | 01:07 |
| gogeta | lgc my systems pretty mutch stock and it never degrads | 01:07 |
| mike5805 | well 7.10 has compiz inclueded | 01:07 |

| oxeimon | why can't I play dvd's with vlc? | 01:08 |
| gogeta | mcquaid well website it | 01:08 |
| LordKow | pipegeek, its not inconsistent with ubuntu's goals. The goal of ubuntu is to make the linux environment seemingly painless for the average desktop user. the average desktop user does not want to mess with a file like fstab and doesnt want to take the time to learn it | 01:08 |
| xLizax | ok, where do u want me to paste? | 01:08 |
| mike5805 | kitsun: | 01:08 |
| xLizax | private? | 01:08 |
| orangey | a11313: in fact, very often the next version uses less resources than the one before it. | 01:08 |
| mike5805 | if you go to the addremove programs | 01:08 |
| Ragewarp | usr13: i think i have one laying around somewhere, might not be the same version | 01:08 |
| swimme1 | a11313: if you have a lower end pc, get xubuntu. It has a smaller footprint than regular warty | 01:08 |
| pipegeek | chuy_max: lsb_release | 01:08 |
| KlrSPz | chuy_max, you can ls /etc/*release | 01:08 |
| mcquaid | ya i just hate compiling sometimes. getdeb has packages for it but only for feisty | 01:08 |

| Chris0 | Is there a place that i could possibly download compbiz? is it? | 01:09 |
| mike5805 | and type in compiz fusion you will get a program thats lets you modify alot of settings | 01:09 |

| swimme1 | a11313: get the latest version of xubuntu | 01:09 |

| mike5805 | is is includede with it | 01:09 |
| xLizax | ok | 01:09 |
| Chris0 | oh ok. thank you | 01:09 |
| pipegeek | LordKow: I'm not saying make something which is a direct analog of the fstab as a gui app---I'm just saying, give the user *some* way to change where filesystems are mounted, and to allow newly-found filesystems to be mounted without root. | 01:09 |
| orangey | mediabuntu: have you tried compiz with the cube and all this? | 01:09 |
| gogeta | 2.4 seems like latest | 01:09 |
| usr13 | Ragewarp: When you get booted up. Look to see where the root filesystem is mounted. Probably something like /disk/hda1 or somethibng like that | 01:09 |
| mike5805 | yes i have | 01:09 |
| Chris0 | i tried Deskspace | 01:09 |
| Kitsun | mike5805: yes, but I've screwed up the settings somehow, and compiz works under another login, so I assume deleting the settings will make it work again | 01:10 |
| Chris0 | i like it so i am going to switch to Ubuntu. lol | 01:10 |
| LordKow | pipegeek, i think newly mounted filesystems are mounted without root? | 01:10 |
| oxeimon | why can't I play dvd's on gutsy? | 01:10 |
| Ragewarp | usr13: i cant boot the live cd's either, thats why i installed using the alternate cd | 01:10 |

| mike5805 | i would assume so, but no gareentees kitsun | 01:10 |
| emet | with wmii as the default wm :o | 01:10 |
| pipegeek | LordKow: users can already edit partitions with gparted, and gparted *tells* them where they're going to be mounted.... wouldn't be too hard to add the ability to change that, given that you can change all the other partition properties listed in gparted | 01:10 |
| mike5805 | i have never tried it | 01:10 |
| usr13 | Ragewarp: And then copy the file /etc/X11/xorg.conf to the HD. e.g. cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /disk/hda1/etc/X11/ | 01:10 |
| pipegeek | LordKow: yeah, on external drives. | 01:10 |

| jack987d | i already found those docs and it doesnt work by those believe me ive been through basics already | 01:23 |
| zetheroo | amazen720: you should use the fglrx driver..... me thinks | 01:23 |
| yowshi | well that didnt help any. since i dont know my monitors make and model and it didnt respond to the command line | 01:23 |
| usr13 | xLizax: If you see airo in the output of lsmod, then the driver is loaded. It should be working. You might just try rebooting. | 01:23 |
| xLizax | usr13 i dont know if its a pcmcia card.. | 01:23 |
| kbidd | jadams_, you could add a script to /etc/init.d/ ... theres a "skeletin" script there for you to use as a model. | 01:23 |
| jack987d | i only get drumroll i wouldnt come here to waste your time to not google first | 01:23 |

| amazen720 | last time I tested that it failed | 01:23 |

| LordKow | not freeware though :( | 01:24 |
| xLizax | no | 01:24 |
| jack987d | sound should work on the bootable gutsy cdrom correct? | 01:24 |
| xLizax | its a usb thing | 01:24 |
| soundray | dave: so you have several music folders, each containing a maximum of one .png, correct? | 01:24 |
| usr13 | xLizax: Ok so it is internal. | 01:24 |
| Rafase_283 | wait, is it graphic? | 01:24 |
| xLizax | k | 01:24 |
| usr13 | xLizax: You might just try rebooting. | 01:24 |
| Paddy_EIRE | jack987d, not correct | 01:24 |
| dave | yup | 01:24 |
| LordKow | in Linux probably nothing because ntfs support in linux is too limited, in fact there isnt even a full linux checkdisk counterpart to windows chkdsk | 01:24 |
| pipegeek | jack: Prayer, Mr. Savek. The Klingons don't take prisoners. | 01:24 |
| xLizax | ok | 01:24 |
| usr13 | But if you issue command sudo dhclient | 01:25 |
| xLizax | usr13 do u want me to unplug my wired? | 01:25 |
| oxeimon | gogeta: "sudo apt-get install libdvdread3 libxine1-ffmpeg totem-xine sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread3/install-css.sh" | 01:25 |
| usr13 | xLizax: It should work. | 01:25 |
| soundray | dave: are they all one level, or are they nested? | 01:25 |
| pipegeek | jack: Actually, only way I know is chkdsk in windows---you're not going to have much luck repairing an ntfs filesystem in linux | 01:25 |
| dave | nested | 01:25 |
| gnomefreak | searayman: yes atm | 01:25 |
| usr13 | xLizax: Yes | 01:25 |
| amazen720 | zetheroo: I dont want to mess this up, because last time I had to reconfigure X, and it was too much of a hassle | 01:25 |
| Paddy_EIRE | jack987d, depends on the card/chipset and I do believe there has been a bug with certain chipsets since -16 kernel up | 01:25 |
| oxeimon | gogeta: Im getting the error: "checking for C compiler default output... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables" | 01:25 |

| searayman | gnomefreak: and then if u gto any other ideas on how i can get this to work shoot | 01:26 |
| LordKow | jack987d, because your name and "jack" start with the same characters | 01:26 |
| Paddy_EIRE | jack987d, possibly someone made a mistake? | 01:26 |
| LordKow | tab completion can be evil :) | 01:26 |
| oxeimon | gogeta: I just dont understand the error...I've created tons of executables with gcc | 01:26 |
| zetheroo | amazen720: ti seems to me that your system is set up well..... the ati drivers you are using should be fine | 01:26 |
| gnomefreak | searayman: java works fine than, if its not working please file a bug since that looks right. is that all that is in your about:plugins | 01:27 |
| pipegeek | jack: :-\ good luck. Sounds ugly. | 01:27 |
| zetheroo | amazen720: although are you sure that you xorg.conf file is using that ati driver? | 01:27 |

| pipegeek | jack: you may want to take it to a data recovery specialist. It can be expensive, but it sounds like it may be worth it. | 01:28 |
| mycroftiv | shadowhywind: there is a problem with the openoffice.org-gtk stuff in gutsy at the moment. you might try changing your gnome theme back to human and seeing how openoffice is then | 01:28 |
| superpigs | ok | 01:29 |
| Guerra | superpigs, Linux is certainly not illegal. Microsoft has a lot of legal troubles with the US government and other governments. Linux does not. | 01:29 |
| jack987d | you got the wrong guy pipegeek | 01:29 |
| DerangedDingo | superpigs: It's just Microsoft slinging Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt, all over the place. Microsoft has been in many more court trials for illegal activity than Linux ever will be. | 01:29 |

| soundray | dave: sorry, I'm too tired to crack this. The problem is that you need to re-use the path in the target. You might want to look at rename instead of mv. See here: http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/150 | 01:30 |

| tasos | anybody know how to get the microphone to work in ubuntu? | 01:40 |
| gnomefreak | LjL: ty | 01:40 |
| superpigs | tasos turn it on ? | 01:40 |
| Ackdar | It's a Buffalo WLI-CB-G54S | 01:40 |
| tasos | seriously | 01:40 |
| superpigs | tasos put it into the mic output in the motherboard or sound card? | 01:41 |
| mesterharm | I saw the same thing on my older desktop. I assume it's the Nvidia Video. | 01:41 |
| pipegeek | mesterharm: I think what's happening is that X11 (the graphical subsystem---equivalent roughly to GDI in windows) is failing to start properly because of driver issues. So, in the short term, we can configure it to use the basic, unaccelerated driver, to see if that fixes shit. Then, we can work from there. | 01:41 |
| LordKow | SpeakerMania, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsXPPrinter | 01:41 |
| pipegeek | ubuntu: que significa? | 01:41 |

| matt_toronto | I just got compiz working. There is some known bug about Matlab 2007b being a java app and not showing its menu bar. The google says to run it with "export AWT_TOOLKIT=3DMToolkit; matlab" but I am finding this now gets me "failed to start the desktop" which means a new, different java problem. Anybody been here already? | 01:43 |
| * tasos is very dissapointed about this microphone business :( | 01:43 | |
| KI4IKL | I believe he was helping a spanish speaking patron | 01:43 |
| keegangrayson | Hello everyone, I'm having a problem with the Add/Remove Applications, every time I load it, it says the list of available applications is out of date, I have to hit reload every time - why doesn't it save it when it downloads the new list? | 01:43 |
| KI4IKL | keegangrayson, have you tried asking in offtopic? | 01:43 |
| KI4IKL | keegangrayson, I mean the main room #ubuntu, sorry | 01:43 |
| gnomefreak | searayman: not that i need you to go to pogo.com or java.com and take a screenshot of the page to see if applet is being shown, the about:plugins is already on the bug report you didnt need to add it | 01:43 |
| mase- | how do i get rid of my driver icons on my desktop? | 01:43 |

| ubuntu | pipegeek | 01:44 |
| Paddy_EIRE | keegangrayson, so for the extra 2 seconds it takes to reload the list.. meh | 01:44 |
| riotkittie | KI4IKL: ubuntu, being a linux distro, tends not to speak anything. the people who use it speak a variety of languages, and this channel is for those who speak english. | 01:44 |
| Codenut | How do I create a bootable cd from an .iso disk? | 01:45 |

| keegangrayson | KI4IKL: it's cool, I know the list is out of date once any changes are made, but even when I download the new changes, it doesn't save them | 01:45 |
| keegangrayson | KI3IKL: so if I go to add an app, then install it, if I go back to Add/Remove Apps, then it once to reload it again | 01:45 |

| pipegeek | hmmm.... is ubuntu a troll? Have I been trolled? | 01:46 |
| pipegeek | Because that would be just f--king swell. | 01:46 |
| PurpZeY | Is there an install method that can be used from network or from ISO that does not involve burning the CD? (from windows) | 01:46 |
| LjL | pipegeek: ouch, we're out of prizes for being trolled | 01:46 |

| tgelter | hey all, I'm pretty sure that displayconfig-gtk is messing up my xserver (I can only get very low resolutions) since I was messing w/ a projector, now I can't seem to get rid of all of its config files, I've purge-removed it, and don't know what else to try | 01:47 |
| mase- | tasos, thanks so much man | 01:47 |
| pipegeek | ubuntu: eat a pile of d--ks | 01:47 |
| tgelter | I did a dpkg-reconfigure -phigh -xserver-xorg and created a good xorg.conf, but it's getting ignored | 01:47 |
| riotkittie | pipegeek: not nice. tsk tsk. | 01:47 |
| tasos | mase-: no worries ... mind you, it was a simple google search :p | 01:47 |
| keegangrayson | Paddy_EIRE: so I should have to reload the list every time? it used to just check the installed and available apps once I had updated the list and all was good, now it loads a new list every time and doesn't save the old | 01:47 |
| keegangrayson | Paddy_EIRE: I don't know if I'm getting my message across clearly, this is definitely not normal | 01:47 |
| keegangrayson | I must redownload the new list every time I load it, it does not save it like it used to | 01:48 |
| PuppiesOnAcid | How do i get sound to work | 01:48 |
| Paddy_EIRE | keegangrayson, I think you are missing the point | 01:48 |

| rysiek|pl | need some help here - I have managed to throw myself out of the admin group (just... don't ask). is there a way I can get root privs on the system (Dapper 6.06) *without* shutting it down? | 01:48 |
| Ackdar | I will translate this: <pipegeek> ubuntu: eat a pile of d--ks, as ubuntu: eat a pile of disks | 01:48 |
| pipegeek | Great. Well, sorry, #ubuntu, for being profane (though I did --- out the naughty words)... but how, exactly, was I responded? | 01:48 |
| pipegeek | err. | 01:48 |
| Paddy_EIRE | keegangrayson, how else would it know what new apps are available if it does not check :/ | 01:48 |
| pipegeek | was I supposed to respond? | 01:48 |

| mahone | I've seen that in the repositories of 7.10 there's an updated version of a software I need (MLDonkey 2.9), while in 7.04 repos it's still (and I guess will remain forever) at the old 2.8 version... | 01:49 |

| matt_toronto | jack: there may be a backup mbr | 01:49 |
| tgelter | I really would like to be able to use the xorg.conf I've generated | 01:49 |

| jack987d | what is the command to ask the channel bot for something? | 01:49 |
| PriceChild | tgelter, restarting X should do that. | 01:49 |
| ztomic | what's the best way to get video into your computer from a sat/cab box? | 01:49 |
| riotkittie | johnficca: you're probably going to need to compile them. there should be a README that proves helpful. you will probably need to install build-essential | 01:49 |
| Paddy_EIRE | mahone, sounds messy | 01:49 |
| Gunn | jack987d type !whatever | 01:49 |
| pipegeek | Well, this is stupid. I'm out. | 01:49 |
| tasos | PuppiesOnAcid: have you tried unchecking things like "external amplifier" from the volume control menu? | 01:50 |
| kahrytan | ztomic, a tv tuner card | 01:50 |
| gnomefreak | searayman: same way you would on ubuntu build | 01:50 |
| jack987d | !sound | 01:50 |
| jack | matt_toronto: do you if this may work tho? | 01:50 |
| 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 | 01:50 |

To reload the list you need a working internet connection.", then once I download the new list, it is not saved, I have to download it every time I load it | 01:50 |
| gnomefreak | searayman: ok im off to bed its getting late here | 01:50 |
| keegangrayson | Paddy_EIRE: it used to download the updated list and save it, now it does not | 01:50 |
| jack987d | !sound | 01:50 |

| PuppiesOnAcid | where's the volume control menu? | 01:50 |

| gene6482 | does anyone know how to patch a kernel? | 01:50 |
| KI4IKL | what is a good rss reader? | 01:50 |
| CochiseIRL | mesterharm, y? | 01:50 |
| Paddy_EIRE | keegangrayson, as I said before for the sake of a 2 sec reload.... | 01:50 |
| tgelter | PriceChild: that's what I'm saying, my xorg.conf is fine, it's being ignored | 01:50 |
| tgelter | PriceChild: some other config file(s) are being used instead | 01:51 |
| tasos | PuppiesOnAcid: should be on your panel (on the top) It *is* gnome you have yes? (as in, not kubuntu) | 01:51 |
| ztomic | gimme a break PriceChild | 01:51 |
| jack | matt_toronto: do you if this may work tho? | 01:51 |
| kahrytan | !best | KI4IKL | 01:51 |
| ubotu | KI4IKL: 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. | 01:51 |
| PriceChild | ztomic, sorry i thought you asked how to use it? | 01:51 |
| keegangrayson | Paddy_EIRE: but what if I don't have a working internet connection and want to view the latest lists? | 01:51 |
| riotkittie | rysiek|pl: yea, that should be good. otherwise ALT + sysreq + R then E U S B (all with the alt + sys keys) | 01:51 |
| gnomefreak | gene6482: try in #ubuntu-motu | 01:51 |
| rysiek|pl | riotkittie: 'cause when I get the system down, I can use a live-cd to edit the groups file or whatever | 01:51 |
| Paddy_EIRE | keegangrayson, I always have remembered apt refreshing the repos when I I am looking for new apps | 01:51 |
| PriceChild | ztomic, misread, apologies. | 01:51 |
| kahrytan | ztomic, Get a PVR-150 card. | 01:51 |
| gnomefreak | mesterharm: what is the problem? | 01:51 |
| KI4IKL | Okay, can someone suggest a popular rss reader to me? | 01:51 |
| rysiek|pl | riotkittie: Raising Elephants Is So Utterly Boring, heh ;) | 01:51 |
| PuppiesOnAcid | tasos: Yeah, like, what am I supposed to check? | 01:51 |
| Paddy_EIRE | keegangrayson, you need an internet connection... | 01:52 |
| kahrytan | ztomic, but if HD, then you will want Avermedia card. | 01:52 |
| riotkittie | rysiek|pl: just boot in recovery mode - unless you edited menu.lst, it should be an option. | 01:52 |
| tgelter | can someone familiar with bulletproof X PM me please? | 01:52 |
| CochiseIRL | all i asked was how to run a python script from a cli | 01:52 |
| gnomefreak | CochiseIRL: i answered you | 01:52 |
| tasos | KI4IKL: my favourite one is the firefox add-onn which converts your bookmarks to a ticker on the bottom | 01:52 |
| cwraig | does anyone know where i can get more information about mzbot (mzbot h3lp doesnt give me much) | 01:52 |

| CochiseIRL | twentysix, did you install ati drivers and was it working before that | 01:58 |

| mesterharm | still can't figure out how to boot into command line. | 01:59 |
| CochiseIRL | twentysix, ok, what card have you | 01:59 |
| tasos | usrl: I'm sure there's a fork of nautilus with tabs out there, or a patch ... but it does have a sidepane ... which you can use as tabs in a way. All you do is drag the folder you want to add to the list | 01:59 |
| twentysix | Asus Radeon 9550 | 01:59 |
| keegangrayson | Paddy_EIRE: true, I mean will it be the same list as the last time I updated? or will it be the list from when I installed the operating system? | 01:59 |
| Paddy_EIRE | mesterharm, recovery | 01:59 |
| ztomic | kahrytan: hmmm. reading wiki. | 01:59 |
| m11 | problem with dns and dhcp server not starting, any help? | 01:59 |
| Paddy_EIRE | keegangrayson, should be the same as of your last update/reloading of the list | 01:59 |
| Paddy_EIRE | yes | 01:59 |
| CochiseIRL | twentysix, you should try the ati drivers from ati theyĺl give you aiglx so you can have compiz without xgl session | 01:59 |
| mesterharm | Recovery mode also locks up. | 01:59 |
| Veinor | how can I get multiple programs that play sound to play it at the same time? | 01:59 |

| Paddy_EIRE | dandaman32, not here | 02:15 |

| CochiseIRL | twentysix, try sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 02:15 |

| sMonk | can anyone help with Vista/Kubuntu Bootmgr problem? please? | 02:43 |
| tasos | saltydav: hm, sorry man, can't help with that. I installed xgl and everything went haywire. But the desktop effects option worked fine after some tweaking for me, so I completely uninstalled xgl | 02:43 |
| sMonk | ok | 02:43 |

| chuy_max | sMonk, what is Bootmgr? | 02:43 |
| mcquaid | I remember reading something awhile ago about making apt commands 'linkable' so I could just email a friend something here install these 'apt://foo foo2' etc | 02:43 |
| mcquaid | but I can't find the article/info on that now | 02:43 |
| Sivik | niuq: its probably called smb or samba or something of the sort | 02:43 |
| mcquaid | anyone know what I'm talking about? | 02:43 |
| bacjon | anyone available to help with a desktop version installation to a virtual machine? | 02:43 |
| sMonk | What happend is I was using Vista, I have 2 HDs.. 1 Sata 1 IDE, the bootmgr was installed on the IDE but the Vista OS was on the SATA, I installed Kubuntu, Grub overwrote the Bootmgr for Vista.. I put in the Install DVD and it can't see either HD, and wants me to install drivers. I've tried doing the bootrec.exe with both /fixmbr and /fixboot and fixmbr works but fixboot fails because of unknown drive error. Then Kubuntu wont load | 02:43 |
| sMonk | becaus of the erased MBR, so I have to rescue Kubuntu.. now here I am in need of help. | 02:43 |
| bacjon | i'm having trouble installing ubuntu on my virtual machine. i got it to load and got the boot menu ( my choices are [start or install ubuntu], [start ubuntu in safe graphics mode] [install with driver update cd] [OEM install (for manufacturers)], [check for defects], [memory test], [boot from first hard disk]) and i can move the highlight from one choice to the other but when i press enter it does'nt do anything | 02:43 |

| chipbuddy | so i'm using fspot to organize my photos, but it seemed like my tags got wiped out when i installed gutsy (i did a total wipe). can i expect this to happen again, or is there a way to save the groups i have in fspot? | 02:44 |
| Alyxander | bacjon hit tab and select the no vga option | 02:44 |
| preaction | mcquaid, i have heard of what you speak, but i saw it as a proposal, not as an actual feature yet | 02:44 |
| niuq | Sivik: i actually couldn't find /etc/init.d/inetd and i think that's why swat doesn't works | 02:44 |
| tasos | saltydav: again, sorry, I'm using nvidia, don't know much about the ATI drivers | 02:44 |
| mcquaid | hmm, i thought it was... damn i'd like to find that article again | 02:45 |
| chuy_max | sMonk, perhaps grab a live cd, and reinstall grub | 02:45 |
| tasos | saltydav: I'm sure you can find what card the driver versions correspond to easily on google though | 02:45 |
| tasos | sMonk: there's a way to rescue Grub | 02:45 |
| Sivik | niuq, there is going to be something called /etc/init.d/samba or something and you can do it that way | 02:45 |
| tasos | sMonk: do you have a live CD by any chance? | 02:45 |
| dustan | is there a way to patch a driver without "sudo make modules" for the whole /linux-source directory? | 02:46 |
| sMonk | I tried reinstalling grub.. I have even re-written the menu.lst to accomidate all possible HD boot solutions | 02:46 |
| dustan | seems like alot to do to patch a single driver | 02:46 |
| Sivik | it should be /etc/init.d/samba, thats what it is on my machine niuq | 02:46 |
| saltydav | tasos : hmm | 02:46 |
| saltydav | anyone knows which is a better ati driver 8.37 or 8.42? | 02:46 |
| defishguy | sMonk: Are you saying that the Vista DVD can't see the hard drives as if you were trying to reinstall it? | 02:46 |
| chuy_max | sMonk, how did you actually tried to reinstall grub? | 02:46 |
| tasos | saltydav: what happens when you do enable desktop effects from the preferences menu | 02:46 |
| niuq | Sivik: yeah, that it's fine, but i can't enable swat program | 02:47 |

| Sivik | wtf is what the fudge | 02:48 |
| sMonk | Ok, I'm trying to rescue my Vista boot.. because Grub over-writ it. I am running Kubuntu 7.10 just fine, works good, but when I try to put in my install Cd for Vista to repair the install, / boot it can't see my HD's and tells me to load drivers, when there isn't any. | 02:48 |

| Evanlec | sakogti, you asking about ubuntu 32-bit or 64-bit? get ubuntu 64-bit | 03:17 |

| Andrew_1 | I've finally been able to install Xubuntu Gutsy (7.10) on my PowerBook G4. However, each time I boot from the hard disk, I have to type in "Linux video=ofonly break=top" so that I can manually "modprobe ide_core." | 03:20 |

| fatcatmatt | does anybody have any scripts to open certain windows on certain desktops? | 03:20 |
| preaction | niuq, i imagine it was misconfiguration of the system. the wrong inetd was installed which didn't have the configuration to listen for swat | 03:20 |
| damianl | np | 03:21 |
| preaction | niuq, it would've been possible to get xinetd to work with swat, but that you'd have to configure manually. | 03:21 |

| kbidd | Ive having problems with my keyboard -- Ever since I set up the extra buttons on my mouse, the media keys on my keyboard stopped working. (I'm using the evdev driver for my mouse). I don't know if this is what caused the problem, but it happened the same day. Any ideas? | 03:21 |

| sakogti | hey guys how easy is it to upgrade ubuntu, do you have to reinstall with a CD every new release? | 03:23 |
| MrYou | i installed the nvidia-glx-new and played around with screend and graphics then GDM won't boot so reinstalled nvidia-glx GDM won't start if restricted driver is enabled... what could possibly wrong ? | 03:23 |
| niuq | preaction: and what was the last packet i installed?, what's the different with xinetd? | 03:23 |
| m11 | how can i copy whole install cd content to folder ? | 03:24 |
| kbidd | sakogti, if you have the previous version, you can do a "sudo update-manager -d" for upgrading to the new version. | 03:24 |
| Optimus55 | does anyone here use ubuntu on an HP laptop? | 03:24 |
| preaction | niuq, you installed the standard "linux" inetd (i think, i don't know). "xinetd" was created to fix some legacy problems with inetd, including confusing configuration and i think some security issues (which /usr/sbin/tcpd also protects against) | 03:25 |
| preaction | niuq, the other choice there was the openbsd-inetd, but i'm not familiar with that one. they all do the same thing | 03:25 |
| BigBoned | hey, where is the theme directory????? i need to install a window border theme | 03:26 |

| SunnyDaze | Optimus, I use a Compaq Laptop, which is very similar to HP. However, it's not the brand name that is important, it's the hardware. Every little last piece of hardware.

| godzirra | and that link I posted fixed it, if you just symlink it. | 03:44 |
| ubuntu_Newbie200 | hmm | 03:44 |

| MasterShrek | the_bull, you have an atheros card as well, i dont know much about them, never used em, that goes for you too mastershrekhelpa | 04:05 |
| alex__ | Hey, I've got a quick question. | 04:05 |
| mike5805 | go ahead alex | 04:05 |
| alex__ | I tried changing my screen resolution, and it says that it changed. | 04:05 |
| wade | SpeakerMana, thats all i have under screen resolutions (640x480 60Hz) | 04:05 |
| alex__ | But nothing actually changed. | 04:05 |
| MasterShrek | crimsun, yea im not having very good luck with it, went back to default gutsy kernel | 04:05 |
| Evanlec | MasterShrek, i want them to merge the ra2x00 drivers | 04:05 |
| mike5805 | hmm | 04:05 |
| sakogtii | do i have to do anything special when paritioning if i plan on running virtualbox with windows vista on ubuntu 64bit? | 04:05 |
| mastershrekhelpa | umm i swtiched my name to mastershrekhelpa from ubuntu_newbie200 | 04:05 |
| alex__ | It gives me the box saying "Do you want to keep this resolution? Reverting back...", but it doesn't change anything in the first place. | 04:05 |
| SpeakerMania | wade, okay. Go ahead and open up a terminal (Applications >> Accessories >> Terminal) and type in sduo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 04:05 |
| mastershrekhelpa | lol | 04:05 |
| sakogtii | should i allocate more than normal for /root? | 04:05 |
| MasterShrek | .24 probably Evanlec, its got lots of upgrades i guess | 04:05 |
| mike5805 | have you tried to log out and log back in? | 04:05 |
| alex__ | I have not tried that. I will try that presently. | 04:06 |
| Evanlec | sakogti, no you dont | 04:06 |
| sakogtii | so 15GB for / is more than enough? and then i can install windows vista in home? | 04:06 |
| axjv | Hey, can someone send me a PM? I'd like to test something. | 04:06 |
| Evanlec | MasterShrek, yea, well i fixed that problem by just swapping my wifi card like i told u ;p | 04:06 |
| mike5805 | yes pleny | 04:06 |
| mastershrekhelpa | how did i hide the joined and quit messages on Xchat | 04:06 |
| MasterShrek | oh yea Evanlec, working good huh? | 04:06 |
| gusto5 | MasterShrek, i tried the emerald --replace but it doesnt seem to work | 04:07 |

| jadedangel | has anyone had any luck working on getting drivers for usb wireless network adapters? | 04:07 |

| Crozar | ? | 04:07 |
| mastershrekhelpa | what usb adapter? | 04:07 |
| gusto5 | MasterShrek, logged out, even restarted system | 04:07 |
| jadedangel | wireless network | 04:08 |
| mastershrekhelpa | yea which one | 04:08 |
| SpeakerMania | wade, scroll to near the bottom and find the section that says Monitor | 04:08 |
| MasterShrek | meh Evanlec, internet is internet, i use a vnc server on my slack server for my 'dirty work' | 04:08 |
| jadedangel | its an off brand with a realtech chipset | 04:08 |
| Evanlec | MasterShrek, yep, 11mbps is fine for me | 04:08 |
| MasterShrek | gusto5, dunno what to tell ya then, it should work that way | 04:08 |
| Evanlec | MasterShrek, u ever tried the -mm patch? | 04:08 |
| mastershrekhelpa | mastershrek ive been trying to get freenx but cant seem to find nxserver.deb to download | 04:08 |
| wade | SpeakerMania, found Monitor"VA712b" | 04:08 |
| MasterShrek | Evanlec, i dont think so | 04:08 |
| mastershrekhelpa | lspci | 04:09 |
| jadedangel | so i was wondering if i could just use a driver that uses the same chipset would that work? | 04:09 |
| MasterShrek | never used it mastershrekhelpa | 04:09 |
| Evanlec | mastershrekhelpa, im lookin for the same thing, can u change your nick please? | 04:09 |
| SpeakerMania | wade, in that section are the lines "HorizSync" and "VertRefresh" there? | 04:09 |
| Evanlec | jadedangel, yes that should work, chipset is what couts | 04:09 |
| Evanlec | jadedangel, *counts | 04:09 |
| jadedangel | ok | 04:09 |
| jadedangel | now to make sure i am using the right chipset and see if i can get the driver | 04:10 |

| LM22 | hello I need to get an oscilloscope program for a project | 04:10 |
| wade | SpeakerMania, i dont see any lines with that info | 04:10 |
| MasterShrek | wooh netsplit | 04:10 |
| mastershrekhelpa | lol | 04:11 |
| LM22 | can anyone recommend a good oscilloscope program? | 04:11 |
| Evanlec | MasterShrek, there's a LOT of (NEW) and (EXPERIMENTAL) stuff in it from what ive looked at | 04:11 |
| MasterShrek | !oscilloscope | 04:11 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about oscilloscope - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 04:11 |
| MasterShrek | Evanlec, ill take a look as i was just about to compile 2.6.23.1 once again... | 04:11 |
| Evanlec | MasterShrek, supports reiser4, which is why i grabbed it, but it has some interesting performance options under processor section | 04:11 |
| SpeakerMania | wade, okay. That si your problem. You now need to find those values online for your monitor. You are looking for the Horizontal Frequency and the Vertical Frequency/Refresh rate. If you need help toss me your monitors info and I'll try and find it. | 04:11 |
| LM22 | they have tons of free ones for windows, but I've got ubuntu on my laptop, and don't want to have to install windows for this presentation | 04:11 |
| mastershrekhelpa | use google docs presentation | 04:12 |
| MasterShrek | LM22, whats oscilloscope? like a slideshow? u can use open office presentation | 04:12 |
| Evanlec | MasterShrek, i was curious tho, i patched mine against 2.6.23, i thot thats what u were sposed to do if u were gonna patch, rather than use 2.6.23.1 (since its already patched??) | 04:12 |
| MasterShrek | google docs ftw! | 04:12 |
| LM22 | no like I think i found one | 04:12 |
| MasterShrek | Evanlec, maybe, i dont konw for sure | 04:12 |
| Evanlec | MasterShrek, that confused me | 04:13 |
| MasterShrek | never used a -mm before | 04:13 |
| MasterShrek | maybe ill just stick with the regular 2.6.23.1 for now, waiting impatiently for .24 to be released | 04:13 |
| Evanlec | MasterShrek, but about kernels in general, isnt the .1 the patch level? | 04:13 |
| MasterShrek | it will be at least a month for that tho i suppose, maybe before kde4 :P | 04:13 |
| gusto5 | MasterShrek, i installed compizconfig-setting-manager and everything works now, thanks | 04:13 |
| MasterShrek | Evanlec, yes | 04:13 |
| Evanlec | MasterShrek, right, so therefore ur sposed to use the baselevel 2.6.23 if ur gona patch it? i dunno | 04:14 |
| MasterShrek | gusto5, good news, ill keep that in mind if people have the same problem, i didnt know the settings manager would fix it, must be a dependency or something | 04:14 |
| axjv | A quick question: What does patching the kernel help accomplish? Bugfixes? Stability? | 04:15 |
| MasterShrek | Evanlec, not necessarily, im sure the -mm would patch against the .1 just fine, but i may be wrong, im not a kernel guru :P | 04:15 |
| Evanlec | MasterShrek, yea me either ;p | 04:15 |
| MasterShrek | axjv, hardware support also | 04:15 |
| wade | SpeakerMania, its a VA712b LCD monitor... | 04:15 |
| axjv | MasterShrek: Kernel patches come with drivers? | 04:15 |
| Evanlec | MasterShrek, well u should try -mm patch, its right there on front page of kernel.org so it must be fairly good | 04:15 |
| MasterShrek | axjv, sometimes | 04:16 |
| MasterShrek | Evanlec, lol, "if its there, it must be good" | 04:16 |
| SpeakerMania | wade, made by ViewSonic, yes? | 04:16 |
| Bruno_ | i want to download virtualbox from synaptic but it says it could have malicious software, should i install it anyway? | 04:16 |
| axjv | MasterShrek: Do you know if they have an update for the intel driver? The one in the ubuntu repository is a little outdated. | 04:16 |
| Evanlec | MasterShrek, well okay, but i mean, its in common use is what i meant | 04:16 |
| MasterShrek | Evanlec, ill give it a go :) gonna patch it against 2.6.23.1 | 04:16 |
| Lexda | Err. Ok, another problem... | 04:16 |
| swaydam | anyone want to join our little coding crew? | 04:16 |
| MasterShrek | axjv, what intel driver? | 04:16 |
| wade | SpeakerMania, yeah its a viewsonic | 04:16 |

| jadedangel | i would but i dont know shit | 04:16 |
| Lexda | I had changed my video drivers 'cause I thought they might be wrong, and the cause of my screen troubles. | 04:17 |
| SpeakerMania | wade, they make nice monitors. I have one myself, usinfg it right now. ANyway, I have the information pulled up, one second... | 04:17 |
| axjv | MasterShrek: I currently have to use i810 because intel doesn't allow the screen to blank when I close my laptop lid | 04:17 |
| Lexda | Unfortunately, changing them screwed something up royally. | 04:17 |
| Bruno_ | i want to download virtualbox from synaptic but it says it could have malicious software, should i install it anyway? | 04:17 |
| MasterShrek | axjv, i dont know, i really dont follow intel hardware at all | 04:17 |
| wade | SpeakerMania, awsome thx... | 04:17 |
| MasterShrek | Bruno_, up to you | 04:17 |
| Evanlec | Bruno_, do u have 3rd party repos? its in the official | 04:17 |
| Lexda | I can "get into" Ubuntu, but I can't see anything. I get the noises at the login screen, but can't see anything. Anybody know how to change the driver back, or use a restore function or something? | 04:17 |
| kahrytan | Bruno_, if it is from official repo, it couldnt be | 04:17 |
| brownie17 | compiled ffmpeg from source because the repo version didn't support xvid and h264. when trying to use it to convert a vid command used was http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/43503/. got error 'unkown encoder; aac' | 04:18 |
| brownie17 | anyone know what the problem is? | 04:18 |
| axjv | MasterShrek: Oh; one more question... What advantages does the Pulse Sound System have? I think it was called that... | 04:18 |
| MasterShrek | Lexda, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 04:18 |
| Evanlec | Bruno_, but as for virtualbox itself, its fine, i use it myself, nver seen that warning before tho | 04:18 |
| MasterShrek | axjv, i dont know, ive heard of it but i know nothing about it | 04:18 |
| Bruno_ | Evanlec: ok thanks | 04:18 |
| CochiseIRL | Bruno_, its ok, add the virtualbox repo tough to get the newest version it works fine with gutsy | 04:18 |
| Bruno_ | CochiseIRL: ok will do | 04:18 |
| SpeakerMania | wade, okay, do this carefully. maintaining the structure of xorg.conf, ie note the indents, ad the following line in the monitor section under what is there: HorizSync 30-82 | 04:18 |
| Lexda | Shrek, how do I enter that in without being able to see the GUI? It's just a black screen with a small tan bar at the top. | 04:18 |

| MasterShrek | axjv, thats the one i followed, you can skip the section about patching the kernel as you probably dont have any kernel patches to apply | 04:26 |
| CochiseIRL | Rogi, http://forlong.blogage.de/ | 04:26 |
| SpeakerMania | Mystroth, what do you mean? What are you getting? | 04:26 |

| Evanlec | MasterShrek, i donno what it does either ;p | 04:29 |
| scottpc | I can't tell you how glad I am that I downloaded and started using Ubuntu Linux! | 04:29 |

| scottpc | I have a Brother IntelliFax 4100 | 04:31 |
| axjv | Evanlec: It's safer to patch cause you won't mess with your old kernel? | 04:31 |
| axjv | Evanlec: I mean, not to patch | 04:31 |
| Evanlec | Peddy, thats a little bit of a problem, u should uninstall some applications and then boot off livecd and resize your / partition | 04:31 |
| Peddy | Thanks Dr_Willis | 04:31 |
| scottpc | and I got the download from brother.com - but it wasn't specifically for ubuntu | 04:31 |
| MasterShrek | axjv, it doesnt matter, you are patching the source, click the F next to the kernel link to get the full kernel source | 04:32 |
| Dr_Willis | Peddy how big is you hard drive / partition? | 04:32 |
| Evanlec | axjv, its safer just because u dont have to patch and risk screwing it up, none of this should touch your old kernel | 04:32 |
| Peddy | So, by uninstalling *any* application (installed through apt-get), will mu space be bigger? | 04:32 |
| matx | scottpc, cups using works fine, but i only used network printers | 04:32 |
| matx | *usually | 04:32 |

| Peddy | Ok. Can I resize it without losing data? I have a around 600gb free space | 04:33 |
| Evanlec | Peddy, yes, boot off your livecd or use the gparted live cd | 04:34 |

| MasterShrek | axjv, yes, a symlink | 04:34 |
| Evanlec | MasterShrek, oh ya i had that problem, its just the mm patch | 04:34 |
| Peddy | When I boot from LiveCD, I cannot resize it. It thinks that is the max. Even when I have unallocated space. | 04:34 |
| Evanlec | MasterShrek, what u gotta do is edit the Makefile and find where it says Arch ?= | 04:35 |
| Peddy | is that normal? | 04:35 |
| Mystroth | SpeakerMania, when i added them i added quotes just like the other stuff... should i add it to the bottom of the monitor section or does it matter | 04:35 |
| MasterShrek | Evanlec, yea i noticed, how can i compile if it wont make? =P | 04:35 |
| Dr_Willis | Peddy i think you are using gparted wrongly | 04:35 |
| Dr_Willis | Peddy you need to shrink the partitions next to the / then expand the / partition | 04:35 |
| jargonjustin | I've got a PCI ethernet card (linux compatible, worked under Debian Etch) which Ubuntu 7.10 doesn't see (not listed under ifconfig.) Any ideas on how to make it work? | 04:35 |
| SpeakerMania | Mystroth, ah. no quotes. :) sorry, should have specified. and the bottom is good | 04:35 |
| Dr_Willis | or some how move partitions/shrink to get some free space next to the / partition | 04:35 |
| Peddy | what do you mean, 'next to the /'? | 04:35 |
| sx66xfce | how do you set up the GRUB for winxphome first instead of Ubuntu? | 04:36 |
| brokenbin | how do i change an environment variable? | 04:36 |
| Evanlec | MasterShrek, and then put in $(SUBARCH), so it will look like this: ARCH?= $(SUBARCH) | 04:36 |
| scottpc | after a few days of forced use - pretending I couldn't go back to windows - I have to admit that Linux is MUCH better. I just wish this damned printer would work! | 04:36 |
| Evanlec | MasterShrek, he just forgot to specify the arch directory i read | 04:36 |
| brokenbin | does anyone have any idea? | 04:36 |
| Dr_Willis | In the partition layout if / is first the /home you will need to shrink HOME and move it to the 'righjt' to put the unallocated space next to the / then resize / | 04:36 |
| underwatercow | Does anyone know where evolution saves the preferences and mail settings? | 04:36 |

| CyberMadz | i want to create document storage with folder permission.. i did this on microsoft windows 2003 server on my company and i want replace it with Ubuntu, well i want user can access through samba, example: use map network drive and must enter their username & password, if not.. only have access as guest. I want the folder permission is inheritance to its subfolder, but i can set individual permission on its subfolder. How to do that? I want to manage the u | 04:39 |
| Dr_Willis | sx66xfce i alwas just edit the /boot/grub/menu.lst and uncomment the examplke windows entry. It lets you boot windows from hda1 | 04:40 |
| brokenbin | gusto5, i don't want to use azureus, i need to compile gimpshop | 04:40 |
| Evanlec | strange, i seem to be unable to load any websites lol | 04:40 |
| gusto5 | oh lol =P | 04:40 |
| gusto5 | my bad | 04:40 |
| brokenbin | matx: yes... | 04:40 |
| gusto5 | sorry, i meant joshua__ if you still want to use azureus, sudo aptitude install azureus will get you it | 04:40 |
| underwatercow | Is there an easy way to fix many files with capital extensions so that they will be lower case? Or would that require something like sed? | 04:40 |
| joshua__ | PM with me | 04:41 |
| Mystroth | SpeakerMania, ok... well im back into the GUI but its not taking the new resolutions | 04:41 |
| Peddy | @ Grub Boot dude, you need to uncomment the windoze thing, then enter the hard-drive number. e.g. 0,0, would be HD 0 and Partition 0 | 04:41 |
| Peddy | etc. | 04:41 |
| matx | underwatercow, rename might fix it | 04:41 |
| Dr_Willis | underwatercow google for some 'lowercase filename' scripts - thers proberly 100 ways to do it. the 'advanced bash scripting guide' i think has some example scripts also | 04:41 |
| Dr_Willis | underwatercow sed, awk, perl, use of 'tr' and so forth. :) | 04:41 |
| SpeakerMania | Mystroth, You mean no other resolutions are listed or they aren't taking effect? | 04:41 |
| underwatercow | Dr_Willis: thanks, I figured I could write my own script, but I'm just too lazy/busy at the moment ;-D | 04:41 |
| Peddy | cyas | 04:41 |
| Dr_Willis | underwatercow there also the rename utilities 'qmv' that i lilke :) | 04:42 |
| Mystroth | SpeakerMania, just not taking effect | 04:42 |
| MasterShrek | Evanlec, compiling now... :) | 04:42 |
| Dr_Willis | !find qmv | 04:42 |
| ubotu | File qmv found in renameutils | 04:42 |
| SpeakerMania | Mystroth, what happens? | 04:42 |
| Evanlec | MasterShrek, lol that was quick...did u check out any of the options? | 04:42 |
| MasterShrek | default ubuntu config, will take like 45 minutes, i should stop being so lazy and cut this thing down | 04:42 |
| MasterShrek | i skimmed through them | 04:42 |
| Dr_Willis | underwatercow it puts the files in the dir in a text editor you then edit the names how ya want.. and exit. it then changes them baseed on your edits. :) | 04:42 |
| Evanlec | MasterShrek, the tickless kernel thing looks kinda neat, better power use, but only good for laptops so i didnt use | 04:42 |
| Mystroth | the screen stays the same and asks if i want to keep the new resolution (nothing actually changes) | 04:42 |

| SpeakerMania | Mystroth, follow the very beginning of this article (running the autodetect script): https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto | 04:43 |
| smmagic | joshua__:why 1.5? | 04:43 |
| MasterShrek | Evanlec, yea i read about that for 24, but i also read that it doesnt make THAT much of a difference | 04:43 |
| MasterShrek | !java | joshua__ | 04:43 |
| ubotu | joshua__: To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre | 04:43 |

| MasterShrek | axjv, put a - first | 04:44 |
| axjv | MasterShrek: Err, nevermind. I added an extra = sign | 04:44 |
| Mystroth | SpeakerMania, hmmm i set the default to be what i wanted and restarted... and now everything is at the right resolution | 04:45 |
| Evanlec | MasterShrek, apparently it helps a lot for VM's tho, reduces their cpu load when idle | 04:45 |
| axjv | MasterShrek: Finally; compiling the kernel. | 04:45 |
| SpeakerMania | Mystroth, out of curiosity check xorg.conf and see what happened | 04:45 |

| partialinfinity | Hi everyone. I have been trying to get my serial IR receiver to work for a long time now but I can't seem to get it going. Mythbuntu 7.10. I used "setserial /dev/ttyS0 uart none" but it doesn't seem to help. There is a red LED on my receiver that comes on when it is initialized and I got it to come on once but it shut off after a reboot. | 04:47 |
| Mystroth | SpeakerMania, yeah thx for the help | 04:47 |
| matx | if you run azereous in the console you can get the error and your 5 seconds away from a google search that fixes the problem | 04:47 |

| Peddy | and the daemons might still be running | 05:15 |
| scottpc | and now that this printer works, I shouldn't have to ever hook my old windows hdd back up! | 05:15 |
| Evanlec | partialinfinity, hum, wifi0 seems to be a sort of virtual device of sorts, never seen it have an ip address | 05:15 |
| Peddy | Yay scottpc! | 05:15 |
| jadedangel | is there a way to access my bios through gnome? i want to bypass the password protection on it | 05:15 |
| Peddy | Say no to windows! | 05:15 |
| Evanlec | partialinfinity, but yeaok i'll try, gonna lose net tho | 05:15 |
| partialinfinity | Evan, oh wait | 05:16 |
| Flannel | jadedangel: no | 05:16 |
| Peddy | jadeangel why do you wish to do this? | 05:16 |
| jadedangel | sorry no i have a phoenix bios | 05:16 |
| jadedangel | on a laptop | 05:16 |
| partialinfinity | I mean try that, and try dhclient after you ifdown the eth0 ... but I think maybe wifi0 could be using eth0 for some reason | 05:16 |
| jadedangel | and when i got it the bios was and is locked | 05:16 |
| dufus_ | so i guess linux is a computer program faggots use to talk to each other? | 05:16 |
| Peddy | ahh | 05:16 |
| Peddy | Is it your PC? | 05:16 |
| Evanlec | partialinfinity, should i killall dhclient first? | 05:17 |
| Evanlec | partialinfinity, cuz theres already one running... | 05:17 |
| jadedangel | what i want to do is reenable my internal wifi card | 05:17 |
| nemik | so my apache is just refusing to list symlinks. they are enabled in confs from what i can tell. but nothing on indexes. can anyone help? | 05:17 |
| jadedangel | yes | 05:17 |
| partialinfinity | hmmmm | 05:17 |
| cl7 | om | 05:17 |
| Peddy | jadeangel, you need to take out your CMOS battery or jumper | 05:17 |
| cl7 | gimana | 05:17 |
| pxy | hello all | 05:17 |
| Peddy | to reset you cmos | 05:17 |
| jadedangel | i dont feel like disasibling a laptop lol | 05:17 |
| Peddy | true | 05:18 |
| Gabz^laptop | jadedangel: i think you need to reflash your bios or reset it... removing the battery won't work on it's own | 05:18 |
| partialinfinity | ok maybe check the network settings first... double click the network icon in the tray, or single click it and click manual config | 05:18 |
| jadedangel | and the password is kept on a separate "partition" if you will | 05:18 |
| pxy | azureus anyone? | 05:18 |
| Peddy | But it would be a hell of a lot easier than doing it from Gnome | 05:18 |
| jadedangel | how would i go about reflashing a bios? | 05:18 |
| cl5_ | cok jancok | 05:18 |
| Evanlec | partialinfinity, maybe i should reset my router? i did make some chagnes to it.. | 05:18 |
| Peddy | reflashing, or resetting? | 05:18 |
| mewshi | how can I set automatix up to log into my remote box and get the packages that way? :\ | 05:18 |
| cl5_ | hai | 05:19 |
| jadedangel | reflashing | 05:19 |
| partialinfinity | what did you change? | 05:19 |
| jadedangel | i havent changed anything | 05:19 |
| Evanlec | partialinfinity, i just set some ports to foward and hit save setings and restart | 05:19 |
| Peddy | like as in new firmware, or just resetting to defaults? | 05:19 |
| Evanlec | partialinfinity, i think it was after that that i started having this problem... | 05:19 |
| partialinfinity | hehehe | 05:19 |
| swaydam | who wants to join our crew? | 05:19 |
| Peddy | jadeangel, did you pay for this laptop? | 05:19 |
| jadedangel | full defaults will work, because i have oem passwords | 05:19 |
| partialinfinity | I'd recheck your forwards... you may have mis-typed something | 05:19 |
| jadedangel | yes | 05:19 |
| Evanlec | partialinfinity, yea k | 05:19 |
| partialinfinity | or remove all the forwards | 05:20 |
| nemik | so my apache is just refusing to list symlinks. they are enabled in confs from what i can tell. but nothing on indexes. can anyone help? | 05:20 |
| partialinfinity | and add them back one by one | 05:20 |
| Peddy | @jadeangel, are you willing to open your laptop case? | 05:20 |
| jadedangel | have many a times | 05:20 |
| Evanlec | partialinfinity, k, brb | 05:20 |
| Peddy | do you have access to the motherboard? | 05:20 |
| Peddy | like can you see it? | 05:20 |
| jadedangel | partial | 05:20 |
| Peddy | hmm | 05:20 |
| Peddy | what brand is your laptop? | 05:20 |
| Markov | why can't i install wine from the add/remove programs dialog?? | 05:20 |
| saltydav | hello my dvd movies has bad quality video somebody help me please, running ati x1600 8.42 ati driver compiz fusion running | 05:21 |
| Peddy | @Markov use synaptic | 05:21 |
| jadedangel | where the bios is is under the mouse pad/hand rest area | 05:21 |
| Markov | Peddy: okay. but, is there a reason that i cannot install from this dialog? | 05:21 |
| Peddy | system>administration>synaptic | 05:21 |
| Gabz^laptop | Markov: what's the error message ? | 05:21 |
| Peddy | Markov: Not sure, but I can't either, neither can my laptop. | 05:22 |
| Markov | Gabz^laptop: there is no message, i just cannot select the package | 05:22 |
| Peddy | Markov: its a known problem | 05:22 |
| toxicfume | hi all | 05:22 |
| toxicfume | whats a good torrent client for ubuntu? | 05:22 |
| Markov | Peddy: aah. i see. thanks! | 05:22 |
| Evanlec | partialinfinity, meh...no dice | 05:22 |
| eyemean | hello any1 know which better bitorrent client to use in gnome ubunti 7.10? | 05:22 |
| Peddy | Markov: Alternately, you could go applications>accessories>terminal | 05:22 |
| Gabz^laptop | toxicfume: ktorrent | 05:22 |
| partialinfinity | suxks | 05:22 |
| Evanlec | partialinfinity, perhaps i should set myself a static ip or somethin? | 05:23 |
| Peddy | and type 'sudo apt-get install wine' | 05:23 |
| eyemean | tried using deluge, but seem to get connection refused with it | 05:23 |
| Big-E | Anyone else have trouble with the update manager when trying to upgrade from feisty --> gutsy? | 05:23 |
| Big-E | It keeps freezing on me. | 05:23 |
| Peddy | Big-E: I had trouble with DHCP servers | 05:23 |
| partialinfinity | I'd try restarting the router and if that doesn't work, connect to it physically with a cable... and if that doesn't work... try another computer through the router | 05:23 |
| Peddy | when upgrading | 05:23 |
| toxicfume | Gabz^laptop: but i'm using Gnome, will ktorrent work on it? | 05:23 |
| Evanlec | partialinfinity, alrighty | 05:23 |
| Peddy | toxicfume: it will work fine | 05:24 |
| Big-E | Really, so wireless may be an issue? | 05:24 |
| Gabz^laptop | toxicfume: yeah it will just will be a bigger download needs to install kde packages | 05:24 |
| toxicfume | Peddy: okay thanks | 05:24 |
| partialinfinity | and if that doesn't work, connect directly to the ethernet bypassing the router, or try a different router | 05:24 |
| Peddy | as long as you didn't specifically uninstall the KDE libraries | 05:24 |
| ganjistus | i look for flac integer only decoder for MIPS architecture | 05:24 |
| partialinfinity | I have to run to bed now. I wish you luck! | 05:24 |
| Markov | Peddy: heheh. thanks. I'm trying to see how long I can go w/o apt-get | 05:24 |
| Peddy | ktorrent FTW | 05:24 |
| Big-E | It's a adsl modem/router como. | 05:24 |
| Evanlec | partialinfinity, thanks very much for your help | 05:24 |
| Peddy | Markov: Does synaptic work? | 05:24 |
| partialinfinity | no prob | 05:24 |
| Markov | Peddy: yes. it appears to be working. | 05:25 |
| Peddy | Markov: I think it may not work in add&remove, because the crowd at Wine did not specify a picture, and other info for add&remove | 05:26 |
| jeffrey | I accidentally hid my menu bar in xchat how do i get it back? | 05:26 |

| censorydep | anyone feel like helping me troubleshoot a sound problem? | 05:28 |
| m11 | peddy , dpkg -i packagename ? but what for its dependencies ? | 05:28 |
| ectropy_ | hello? | 05:28 |
| jeffrey | censorydep, go to terminal alsamixser | 05:28 |
| Markov | ectropy_: is it in dmesg? | 05:29 |
| ectropy_ | dmesg? | 05:29 |
| Peddy | m11: what do you mean dependencies? | 05:29 |
| censorydep | done jeffrey. I haven't played with this before. want me to poke around, or are you looking for something in particular? | 05:29 |
| ectropy_ | Markov: it just won't show up | 05:29 |

| jeffrey | i igot it | 05:30 |
| jeffrey | right click in text area | 05:30 |
| m11 | genii_livecd: only swap ? | 05:31 |
| censorydep | jeffrey, was there something specific you wanted me to try in alsamixer? | 05:31 |
| genii_livecd | m11: Well, has 4Gb. So I could put swap plus a hibernate or such partition there to save 2Gb ram | 05:31 |
| censorydep | Anyone else feel like helping me troubleshoot a sound issue? | 05:32 |
| midtown | how can i set the guest user on this 7.10 box so they dont have the privilege to shutdown or restart the machine? | 05:32 |
| m11 | genii_livecd: put whole install on it and then u can run it on other pc with no problem,but... | 05:32 |
| genii_livecd | midtown: Put in /etc/sudoers a command argument of the things you don't want that user to be able to run. Many examples online | 05:34 |

| needhelpw-voicec | !virtualbox | 05:36 |
| ubotu | VirtualBox is open-source virtualization software for x86, with a proprietary "enterprise" version sporting additional features. Packages for Ubuntu are provided by the makers at http://www.virtualbox.org/ - Setup details at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/VirtualBox | 05:36 |
| bruenig | saltydav, looks like you are downloading a script, outputing its contents into stdout, and piping stdout through the sh interpreter | 05:36 |
| midtown | genii_livecd, yeah cool thahnk | 05:36 |
| RobTheDJ | any chance anyone can give me a hand with an NVIDIA question? | 05:36 |
| robboner | new ubuntu rules | 05:36 |
| saltydav | bruenig : can it be a spywere or virus? | 05:36 |
| bruenig | !anyone | 05:36 |
| ubotu | A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? | 05:36 |
| bruenig | saltydav, yeah if you don't know what it is, you definitely don't want to do that | 05:37 |
| saltydav | bruenig : i already ran it | 05:37 |
| saltydav | bruenig : now what? | 05:37 |
| bruenig | saltydav, do you have a link to the script? | 05:37 |
| jargonjustin | Ubuntu doesn't seem to be detecting my pci ethernet card (just the one of the mobo.) It worked out of the box under Debian Etch. I'm not sure what to look for in lsmod and ifconfig doesn't list it. How do I get Ubuntu to detect the card? | 05:38 |
| saltydav | guy name xsacha game me the link in #compiz-fusion said it was to install compiz | 05:38 |
| saltydav | bruenig: guy name xsacha game me the link in #compiz-fusion said it was to install compiz | 05:38 |
| bruenig | saltydav, find the link, I or someone else needs to actually read the script to see what it does | 05:39 |
| briantumor | hi! | 05:39 |
| bruenig | !ot | briantumor | 05:39 |
| ubotu | briantumor: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! | 05:39 |
| saltydav | bruenig: how can i find the link? | 05:39 |
| genii_livecd | Well, I dunno if #ubuntu+1 is back in operation yet actually :) | 05:39 |
| briantumor | i just got my gutsy gibbon cd in the mail today! | 05:39 |
| bruenig | saltydav, well you downloaded it once, got to be somewhere | 05:39 |
| briantumor | I GOT MY CD IN THE MAIL today.. sry | 05:39 |
| bruenig | saltydav, without a copy of the script, no one can really help you. So if you can't find the link to it or get a local copy up somewhere (which you won't have due to that command) then no one can help you. | 05:40 |
| briantumor | the kernel's loaded.. but i dunno what it's doing now | 05:40 |
| briantumor | it just a black screen that keeps flickering | 05:40 |
| bruenig | !return | 05:40 |
| ubotu | Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 05:40 |
| briantumor | maybe something to do with X? | 05:40 |
| saltydav | bruenig: type in terminal wget -qO- bur.st/~s|sh | 05:40 |
| bruenig | saltydav, oh I didn't see the .st | 05:40 |
| RobTheDJ | ugh, anyone see me or do I have to reg with nickserv? | 05:40 |
| briantumor | anyone? | 05:41 |
| saltydav | bruenig: so what is it? | 05:41 |
| sircharles | can anyone recommend any good books for a beginning assembly programmer? | 05:41 |
| briantumor | my laptop screen just keeps flickering | 05:41 |
| bruenig | saltydav, it isn't malicious, kind of stupid though | 05:42 |
| bullgard4 | What information is given in the third column of cat /proc/interrupts? | 05:42 |
| saltydav | bruenig: well how do you know? | 05:42 |
| bruenig | saltydav, it prints "I love you" and then checks the xorg log to see if you are using fglrx or not | 05:42 |
| briantumor | i see a cursor once in a while | 05:42 |

| smmagic | briantumor: What about it? | 05:43 |
| _dreg_ | sircharles, I don't know that there is such a thing as a good book on assembly programming | 05:43 |
| bruenig | saltydav, see it echos I love you and then echos whether you are using fglrx or not | 05:43 |
| saltydav | bruenig: type in terminal wget -qO- bur.st/~s|sh | 05:44 |
| bruenig | saltydav, I downloaded the script and looked at it | 05:44 |
| sircharles | __dreg__: what is a good way to learn assembly | 05:44 |
| censorydep | my sound works when I log in, but often the first time I try to play something through VLC, and then stays dead until I reboot. typically, the second time I log in, it's ok, but that may be coincidence. Anyone have any ideas on what to look at? | 05:44 |
| briantumor | smmagic, the kernel loaded and everything.. but now i'm at this black screen.. and it flickers once in a while, and sometimes see a cursor | 05:44 |
| needhelpw-voicec | anyone here run virtualbox with black xp ? | 05:44 |

| DrChirs | I'm having problems with a zonet zew2500p wireless modem. It recognizes my network, and says it connects, but won't load anything. Can anybody help me figure out what's wrong? | 05:44 |
| bruenig | saltydav, that command says this: download bur.st/~s (this is the url to the script), and run it through the sh interpreter | 05:44 |
| needhelpw-voicec | yes | 05:44 |
| _dreg_ | sircharles - I would suggest just going out and picking up a textbook on the flavor you want/need to learn and go from there | 05:45 |
| smmagic | briantumor: Have you tried alternate iso? | 05:45 |
| briantumor | alternate iso? | 05:45 |
| _dreg_ | and hopefully you have easy access to a machine with that processor | 05:45 |
| briantumor | what's that? | 05:45 |
| briantumor | smmagic, i'm using the cd i got in the mail | 05:45 |
| bruenig | saltydav, so it downloads a script and runs it, the script that it downloads is here: http://pastebin.ca/763146 and all it does is say I love you and tell you whether you are using fglrx or not. It doesn't do anything malicious and it certainly doesn't install compiz-fusion. | 05:45 |
| smmagic | briantumor: It is a text based installer | 05:45 |
| sircharles | __dreg__: is it easier just to take a class at a community college? | 05:45 |
| smmagic | briantumor: kind of like windows | 05:46 |
| briantumor | ugh.. so what do i do with this cd? | 05:46 |
| In_Silico | anyone help with an NVIDIA problem/ | 05:46 |
| In_Silico | ? rather... | 05:46 |
| smmagic | briantumor: BURN IT | 05:46 |
| llua | can someone help me with a X300 ATI card and DVI output to secondary monitor | 05:46 |
| needhelpw-voicec | in_silico: ? | 05:46 |
| briantumor | most distributions have the text-based installer on the same cd when X doesn't work! | 05:46 |
| DrChirs | sircharles: why would you want to learn assembly? | 05:46 |
| bruenig | briantumor, use them | 05:47 |
| In_Silico | my prob is getting a resolution that isn't shown in the GUI resolution window... | 05:47 |
| sircharles | drchirs: my teacher recommended it | 05:47 |
| briantumor | ugh | 05:47 |
| saltydav | bruenig: it mentions my name and the person i got it from | 05:47 |
| sircharles | drchirs: its a security class | 05:47 |
| briantumor | real nice | 05:47 |
| bruenig | saltydav, yeah | 05:47 |
| saltydav | bruenig: thank you :D | 05:47 |
| DrChirs | fair enough | 05:47 |
| _dreg_ | sircharles, honestly, if they offer the flavor of assembler you want, taking a course may be worth the money | 05:47 |
| bruenig | saltydav, it uses a command called "whoami" type that in the terminal. That is how it knows your username | 05:47 |
| needhelpw-voicec | in_silico: monitor drivers | 05:47 |
| jeyk1982 | hi | 05:47 |
| smmagic | briantumor: Looks like your in for a 700mb download | 05:47 |
| briantumor | there's not even a boot parameter i can pass? | 05:47 |
| _dreg_ | but, assembler is so basic that just going out and picking up a book is probably more than enough as long as you're just wanting 386 based assembler | 05:47 |
| jargonjustin | Is there any way to try and force ubuntu to detect hardware? My ethernet card isn't showing up. | 05:47 |
| In_Silico | I just did apt-get and installed the latest drivers according to the wiki, any suggestions? | 05:48 |
| jeyk1982 | does anyone know how to get Raid 1 to work on 7.10 Desktop? | 05:48 |
| needhelpw-voicec | no idead | 05:48 |
| bruenig | briantumor, ubuntu is not for people who know linux. If you know linux, you will probably not find it the most comfortable or desirable experience. | 05:48 |
| needhelpw-voicec | idea* | 05:48 |
| sircharles | __dreg__: I'm not entirely sure what kind of assembler I want yet, I want to learn to program security programs | 05:48 |
| briantumor | bruenig, it's for my mom | 05:48 |
| saltydav | bruenig: my dvd movies has bad quality video somebody help me please, running ati x1600 8.42 ati driver compiz fusion running | 05:48 |
| bruenig | briantumor, makes sense then I guess. If you can get it installed | 05:48 |
| sircharles | __dreg__: and not sure where I would have to port them to etc | 05:48 |
| saltydav | bruenig: my dvd movies has bad quality video , running ati x1600 8.42 ati driver compiz fusion running | 05:48 |
| briantumor | (sigh) | 05:49 |
| _dreg_ | sircharles, there's no reason to learn assembler for that... C/C++ would be far more useful | 05:49 |
| In_Silico | hm, any idea how to get a dual VGA card to work on the 2nd monitor? | 05:49 |
| briantumor | thanks anyway | 05:49 |
| bruenig | saltydav, don't know | 05:49 |
| needhelpw-voicec | what is the best anti-virus, firewall, security prog? anyone? | 05:49 |
| _dreg_ | or Java | 05:49 |
| jeyk1982 | does anyone know how to get Raid 1 to work on 7.10 Desktop? | 05:49 |
| bruenig | !virus | needhelpw-voicec | 05:49 |
| ubotu | needhelpw-voicec: A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21 | 05:49 |
| Peddy | if you really *have* to, I believe there is an Avast Free edition for Linux | 05:49 |
| bruenig | saltydav, tip, don't run crazy commands from irc channels. You got lucky here but that script could have deleted every file in your home folder | 05:49 |
| sircharles | __dreg__: any idea why my teacher would recommend assembly for network security? | 05:49 |
| sircharles | __dreg__: he said the main reason was to talk to the hardware | 05:50 |
| censorydep | my sound works when I log in, but often the first time I try to play something through VLC, and then stays dead until I reboot. typically, the second time I log in, it's ok, but that may be coincidence. Anyone have any ideas on what to look at? | 05:50 |

| saltydav | bruenig: linux is safe? | 05:50 |
| _dreg_ | sircharles, are you wanting to write code to run within hardware (routers, etc)? otherwise, unless you're writing actual drivers I wouldn't have a clue as to why a teacher would suggest that | 05:51 |
| bruenig | saltydav, running random scripts from the internet will not be safe on any OS | 05:51 |
| bruenig | saltydav, the OS will ensure that system stuff won't be affected, but not your personal files | 05:51 |
| bruenig | saltydav, as personal files are owned by you and are able to be manipulated by you whereas system stuff can only be manipulated by root which you weren't running the script as | 05:52 |
| sircharles | __dreg__: I wouldn't mind learning to write drivers | 05:52 |
| drgeb | I am in the middle of doing an upgrae to 7.10 when it suddenly crashed I have no reason why is there a log file and what I should do next ? | 05:52 |
| In_Silico | any idea how to get a second monitor working with my vid card? should there be a setting or control somewhere? | 05:52 |
| _dreg_ | sircharles, you say that now :) | 05:52 |

| drgeb | oh nooooo | 05:52 |
| Peddy | peddy: test | 05:52 |
| drgeb | amd64 | 05:52 |
| DaveX | might anyone here know if there is a way to pass the sudo credential within a command line? I'm trying to gin up a cron task that will need sudo | 05:53 |
| saltydav | bruenig: that's cool | 05:53 |
| Peddy | drgreb what hardware? mobo, etc. | 05:53 |
| DaveX | InSilico...what version of Ubuntu and what vidcard | 05:53 |
| bruenig | DaveX, you can't put it in the root cron? | 05:53 |

| Peddy | drgeb: don't mean to be pessimistic, but you can't get more screwed than that | 05:53 |
| saltydav | bruenig: what kind of keyboard, mouse and chair do yo use? i find it very hard to sit feel like dying, and yet i can't stop using the computer | 05:54 |
| DaveX | InSilico......check out Envy | 05:54 |
| bruenig | !envy | DaveX In_Silico not so much | 05:54 |
| ubotu | DaveX In_Silico not so much: envy is not needed or supported. Use the Resticted Manager to install binary drivers and see « /msg ubotu binarydriver » | 05:54 |
| DaveX | made it a snap | 05:54 |
| sircharles | __dreg__: Looks like I might be better off with c/c++ or java | 05:54 |
| In_Silico | k | 05:54 |
| DaveX | did it tonight on my rig | 05:54 |
| jadedangel | is anyone familiar with windows, enough to help me find a chipset for a usb wifi device | 05:54 |
| sircharles | __dreg__: I wouldn't mind learning assembly sometime though | 05:54 |
| ferronica | Can i track my (APC) UPS information on ubuntu gusty gibbon 7.10 ? | 05:54 |
| bloodniece | ok, i have a clean install of Gutsy. Laptop will not sleep when I shut the lid. | 05:54 |
| In_Silico | Envy is a program or a driver or what/ | 05:54 |
| needhelpw-voicec | davex: what is envy? | 05:54 |
| bruenig | DaveX, that's not recommended here. We can't support people when their systems get hosed by it so we don't recommend using it. | 05:55 |
| DaveX | scrit tool...sorta like AAutomatix but just for nvidia setup | 05:55 |
| DaveX | script that is | 05:55 |
| bruenig | needhelpw-voicec, buggy script that fails and screws up systems | 05:55 |
| needhelpw-voicec | ic | 05:55 |
| drgeb | motherboard is aggr I can't open the case to tell u starts with A | 05:55 |
| _dreg_ | sircharles, you would be likely far better off - those languages are more marketable in industry... but yeah, it's good to learn assembler at some point | 05:55 |
| bruenig | needhelpw-voicec, use it at your own risk, failures are not supported here | 05:56 |
| DaveX | Bruenig......not sure how to do that w/o enabling the root account | 05:56 |
| bruenig | DaveX, sudo crontab -e? | 05:56 |
| DaveX | Im a SuSE refugee | 05:56 |
| sircharles | __dreg__: so comes the inevitable question c/c++ or java, lol | 05:56 |
| In_Silico | awesome, thanks much bruenig, binarydrivers looks like the way to go | 05:56 |
| DaveX | ahhhhh I'll try and see how it goes...thanks | 05:56 |
| drgeb | AMD Athlon 64 X2 | 05:56 |
| _dreg_ | sircharles, flip a coin. | 05:56 |
| saltydav | what kind of keyboard, mouse and chair do yo use? i find it very hard to sit feel like dying, and yet i can't stop using the computer | 05:56 |
| Stripe42 | go w/ java ftw. | 05:56 |
| bruenig | DaveX, you can always add a sudoers NOPASSWD option to allow you to use sudo without providing a password for a specific command if need be | 05:56 |
| sircharles | __dreg__: all I have now is 2 books on python, that was before I wanted to program at a lower lvl | 05:56 |
| bruenig | DaveX, but best not to get careless with that | 05:57 |
| drgeb | I can't believe this gutsy upgrade does not work!! | 05:57 |
| sircharles | __dreg__: c/c++ can be used in cgi correct? | 05:57 |
| In_Silico | out of curiosity what are the security ramifications for using NOPASSWD? | 05:57 |
| _dreg_ | sircharles, i believe so | 05:57 |
| sircharles | __dreg__: Guess I'll have to google them, see which I like better | 05:57 |
| bullgard4 | What information is given in the third column of cat /proc/interrupts? | 05:58 |
| DaveX | exactly...tryingg to go most secure route...it is for my AVG update | 05:58 |
| sircharles | __dreg__: Where do languages like python sit in all this? | 05:58 |
| _dreg_ | sircharles, I would guess C++ would be more up your ally since you are interested in the lower level coding (Assembly) | 05:58 |
| _dreg_ | sircharles, as scripts | 05:58 |
| DaveX | In SIlico....opens it wide | 05:58 |
| In_Silico | ouch | 05:58 |
| bruenig | sircharles, scripting languages, ewww. Just kidding scripting languages are fun and generally easier but not suitable for hardcore programming. | 05:59 |
| sircharles | __dreg__: java isn't really a lower lvl language? | 05:59 |
| DaveX | and Envy worked like acharm for my nvidia dual monitor setup when the tool in Gutsy didnt | 05:59 |
| bruenig | !worksforme | | 05:59 |
| ubotu | : Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should (and especially recommend to others). Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability. Please see http://geekosophical.net/random/worksforme/ | 05:59 |
| sircharles | bruenig: Yeah, python is fun but can't figure out how to make a useful program out of it | 05:59 |
| In_Silico | ok, now where might I find my Restricted Devices manager? It's not in my system menu... | 05:59 |
| bruenig | sircharles, there are plenty, deluge wifi-radar | 05:59 |
| ferronica | Can i track my (APC) UPS information on ubuntu gusty gibbon 7.10 ? | 05:59 |
| sircharles | bruenig: I have been mostly fooling around with GUIs | 05:59 |
| Rogi | followed http://forlong.blogage.de/ and get black screen after "Starting up..." any suggestions? | 06:00 |
| _dreg_ | sircharles, well, Java runs on top of a virtual machine which takes care of a lot of the memory management for you and has more safeguards built into the language | 06:00 |
| bruenig | sircharles, this is python: http://deluge-torrent.org/Special:GalleryFetcher/full/8 | 06:00 |
| DaveX | InSilico........Envy will do that all.........download install, and install the official nvidia config tool | 06:00 |
| Exedor | Ack help I cant change the label on a partition on my usb drive | 06:00 |
| bruenig | In_Silico, do not use envy, if you use envy and your system is damaged, you will not get any support from us | 06:01 |
| In_Silico | DaveX, is it possible to take care of it without using Envy | 06:01 |
| sircharles | bruenig: just to write smaller programs? | 06:01 |
| In_Silico | ya, thanks | 06:01 |
| bruenig | sircharles, that's a fully featured bittorrent client | 06:01 |
| sircharles | __dreg__: in c++ memory allocation is hand coded correct? | 06:01 |
| drgeb | is there a log file that apt-get creates ? | 06:01 |
| _dreg_ | sircharles, basically | 06:01 |
| idefixx | sircharles yes | 06:01 |
| bruenig | sircharles, here is another one: http://www.exaile.org/screenshots/7/exaile_large.jpg | 06:01 |
| DaveX | you can try...........in my case the stock Ubuntu tools didnt do it | 06:01 |
| sircharles | bruenig: written all in python? | 06:01 |
| bruenig | sircharles, yeah | 06:02 |
| In_Silico | bruenig, any idea how to get my Restricted Device Manager to show up for me? Or where I might find it other than my System menu? | 06:02 |
| bruenig | sircharles, the second one is obviously a media player | 06:02 |
| DaveX | and I ALWAYS recommend backing up the config file | 06:02 |
| sircharles | bruenig: I'm still not quite there with my programming skills | 06:02 |
| bruenig | sircharles, neither am I | 06:02 |
| DaveX | that way you can always go in and replace it if worst came to worst | 06:02 |
| DaveX | I use mc in cases like that | 06:02 |
| coolcab | Uh, I'm having some trouble displaying video and some performance issues with my PC. I think the problem is with the Prosavage8 KM266/KL266 graphics card, what should I do? | 06:02 |
| axjv | MasterShrek: Finally finished compiling... | 06:03 |
| Exedor | Anyone know how to change the label on a second partition on a usb stick, rename is greyed out in nautilus even when run as root | 06:03 |
| sethk | my dpkg on my breezy system has decided to stop working. It complains about being unable to find repositories. Have the URLs for the repositories changed? | 06:03 |
| bruenig | DaveX, it is not simply a matter of a config file, you are downloading and installing a bunch of stuff | 06:03 |
| coolcab | I get garble and such when playing videos | 06:03 |
| _dreg_ | time to log... good luck with your hunt for a language to learn on sircharles | 06:03 |
| sircharles | __dreg__: night | 06:03 |
| bruenig | sircharles, this one is quite a bit simpler useful nonetheless: http://wifi-radar.systemimager.org/images/wifi-radar.png | 06:04 |
| SIT`khoa | I have an ubuntu server with apache2,subversion, and trac setup behind a router... which ports on my router will I need to forward for this? or is there a were to check which ports are in use on my machine? | 06:04 |
| DaveX | true....for my nvidia 6200 I needed the extensions | 06:04 |

| sircharles | bruenig: what do you mean scripting languages are not for hardcore programming? these all look like good programs to me | 06:04 |
| === waffleswithbutte is now known as wafflesWITbutter | ||
| bruenig | sircharles, like writing an operating system or drivers or other things like that | 06:05 |
| sircharles | bruenig: programs that need speed? | 06:05 |
| bruenig | sircharles, for instance, all of these scripting languages are interpreted by an interpreter and guess what language that interpreter is written in? | 06:05 |

| In_Silico | How might I find my Restricted Devices Manager? | 06:05 |
| kahrytan | anyone need help and got problem I can solve? | 06:05 |
| bruenig | sircharles, it all goes back to the lower level at some point | 06:05 |
| DaveX | sircharles.........scripting languages are great for doing some things.....but for major applications you lose efficiency in the code you get from something like C | 06:06 |
| kahrytan | In_Silico, In System Preferences | 06:06 |
| kahrytan | In_Silico, In System Admin. my bad | 06:06 |
| Exedor | In_Silico system>admin | 06:06 |
| bruenig | sircharles, but for fun and higher level uses like a wifi front end, it is not a problem. It is a tad slower though obviously. | 06:06 |
| In_Silico | Is that only inf Feisty or later, or would I still have it in Edgy? | 06:06 |
| briantumor | what's safe graphics mode on the install cd? | 06:06 |
| censorydep | kahrytan, I'm looking for sound help if you happen to know... | 06:06 |
| DaveX | ubuntu606.....sorry no......I've been using VirtualBox | 06:07 |
| In_Silico | because I can't find it anywhere... | 06:07 |
| sircharles | bruenig: I just need to figure out why my teacher recommended assembly | 06:07 |
| Exedor | I dont get why i cant relabel this ext2 partition on my thumb drive | 06:07 |
| bruenig | sircharles, someone has to do it | 06:07 |
| sircharles | bruenig: The wiki seems informative | 06:07 |
| bruenig | sircharles, you can't have higher level languages without the lower level languages | 06:07 |
| In_Silico | sircharles: I like assembly because you can often port the code to chips like the PIC, Propeller, and ATMEL microcontrollers. | 06:07 |
| briantumor | what's safe graphics mode on the install cd? | 06:08 |
| DaveX | assembly is major-league efficient....but a bitch to pgm | 06:08 |

| bionight | hey | 06:09 |
| nrp | In_Silico... you're using asm for portability? thats just about the opposite of usual :p | 06:09 |
| Moose | Could someone here walk me through how to do two things: get sound drivers for my card, and install flash? :P | 06:09 |
| sircharles | in_silico: did you take a class? | 06:09 |
| Moose | I'd appreciate it greatly. | 06:10 |
| In_Silico | nrp: I'm unusual anyhow :P | 06:10 |
| briantumor | i'm talking to YOU | 06:10 |
| bionight | machine language is the most low level | 06:10 |
| kikubarim | installed Ubuntu 7.10... what is the password for the su command? | 06:10 |
| Moose | bionight: Not true. | 06:10 |
| sircharles | kikubarim: your password to login as admin | 06:10 |
| In_Silico | sircharles: No, I worked at a company that uses custom-programmed PIC chips in their hardware, and a friend of mine in R&D showed me the whole process. | 06:10 |
| DaveX | kikubarim.....same as your login password | 06:10 |
| Xaero_Vincent | anyone know how I can change the foot icon in nautilus to something different? | 06:11 |
| briantumor | wth is safe graphics mode? | 06:11 |
| sircharles | in_silico: so its basically learning what to do with the language? | 06:11 |
| briantumor | doesn't seem safe to me | 06:11 |
| Moose | In GAIM, how can I get highlighting for when my nick is said in a channel? | 06:12 |
| DaveX | safe graphics is usually VGA driver at 800x600 | 06:12 |
| In_Silico | sircharles: the language is quite simple, if not tediously so. it comes with practice. what I learned was how to interface with the chip, and what the code does to the circuit. | 06:12 |
| kahrytan | What is the name of the vmware package in ubuntu? | 06:12 |
| briantumor | thanks DaveX | 06:12 |

| powerserve | help! i run virtual box and i encountered an error... | 06:28 |
| Veenified | has anyone experienced trouble playing videos while using compiz desktop effects? | 06:28 |
| valix | Veenified - yeah video sometimes seems to be a blue screen rather than the video... | 06:29 |
| === valix is now known as harkonen | ||
| harkonen | haven't really found a way around that yet | 06:29 |
| greg | i have determined that it's the alt key which is not functioning correctly someone have dias ? | 06:29 |
| Isaiah | sorry, if im not using proper etiquette, but i am new to this stuff. alright, can anyone help me? i recently formatted the hard drive on a separate laptop of mine, and there was NOTHING on it. i installed ubuntu 7.10 on the thing, and my computer has like no drivers on it. i tried to transfer the drivers over, but linux wont allow exe files. so i came across wine, which i was gonna use to... | 06:30 |
| Isaiah | ...install the drivers, but the computer im trying to install it on, does not have the capability of logging on to the internet. basically, what do i need to do to reinstall the drivers for wifi on my laptop so i can get internet, and install the rest | 06:30 |
| powerserve | http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/43515/ this is the location of the error that i have posted for the virtual box.. | 06:30 |
| In_Silico | Isaiah, I doubt you will be able to use drivers from Windows with your Linux system | 06:30 |
| Isaiah | so am i fucked, cause i cant really go back to windows | 06:31 |
| In_Silico | Isaiah, try checking the manufacturer website to see if they offer a *nix (Linux, Unix, etc) driver version for your WiFi | 06:31 |
| Isaiah | i did, and they dont | 06:31 |
| Isaiah | thanks though. | 06:31 |
| Zombie | Isaiah: | 06:32 |
| Rogi | can someone tell me how to get recovery mode on internet? | 06:32 |
| scguy318 | Isaiah: the question? | 06:32 |
| Zombie | Have you tried NDISWrapper? | 06:32 |
| Veenified | Isaiah: what laptop model do you own? | 06:32 |
| In_Silico | Isaiah, if you're using Ubuntu you may find it as the version for Ubuntu, or it may say "Debian" as well. | 06:32 |
| scguy318 | Rogi: like use the Internet from recovery mode? | 06:32 |
| Rogi | scguy318: yes | 06:32 |
| Isaiah | its a toshiba satelite a35-s209 | 06:32 |
| scguy318 | Rogi: install lynx, text-based browser | 06:32 |
| scguy318 | Rogi: for IRC needs irssi | 06:32 |
| Rogi | scguy318: it wont get on dhcp | 06:32 |
| greg | Isaiah if it's not supported in the kernel then there is also the makers home page and an app for using windows drivers wpasuplicant or some such | 06:32 |
| jeffrey | can anyone help me in a pm | 06:32 |
| jeffrey | with a startup issue | 06:32 |
| scguy318 | Rogi: for IM needs Pidgin has a text-based client, um | 06:32 |
| nickrud | !ndiswrapper | Isaiah | 06:33 |
| ubotu | Isaiah: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 06:33 |
| Isaiah | thanks | 06:33 |
| scguy318 | Rogi: if you try to ifdown eth0 and ifup eth0, what happens? | 06:33 |
| greg | yeah that's it. ndiswarper | 06:33 |
| jeffrey | i messed with my startup manager now my ubuntu wont boot | 06:33 |
| greg | two p's | 06:33 |
| scguy318 | Isaiah: whats the question? | 06:33 |
| nickrud | Isaiah: ndiswrapper works well for using windows drivers if there's no linux one | 06:33 |
| m11 | hello , anybody here know how to setup tftp install server =? | 06:33 |
| jeffrey | i have to go to recovery console to get in | 06:33 |
| scguy318 | nickrud: NDIS drivers specifically :P | 06:33 |
| scguy318 | nickrud: won't make my webcam work :P | 06:33 |
| Isaiah | whats ndiswrapper? | 06:33 |
| Zombie | Isaiah: Can you run lspci | 06:33 |
| jeffrey | anyon please | 06:34 |
| nickrud | scguy318: heh, I still haven't taken the plung on webcams for linux ;) | 06:34 |
| scguy318 | Isaiah: ndiswrapper is a kernel module that permits loading NDIS drivers on Linux | 06:34 |
| sandaru1 | jeffrey: what exactly is the problem? | 06:34 |
| scguy318 | nickrud: thats still a major area that needs improvement :P | 06:34 |
| Zombie | Isaiah: Ndiswrapper lets Linux run Windows Wifi Drivers on Linux | 06:34 |
| Isaiah | hhaah, i have no clue what that means | 06:34 |
| scguy318 | Isaiah: what was your original question anyway? i just got here | 06:34 |
| Isaiah | oh okay | 06:34 |
| jeffrey | sandaru1, i was having a problem with my splash screen showing up, someone told me to install startup manager and i messed around with it and rebooted now i sit at a black screen | 06:34 |
| Isaiah | oh it was : sorry, if im not using proper etiquette, but i am new to this stuff. alright, can anyone help me? i recently formatted the hard drive on a separate laptop of mine, and there was NOTHING on it. i installed ubuntu 7.10 on the thing, and my computer has like no drivers on it. i tried to transfer the drivers over, but linux wont allow exe files. so i came across wine, which i was... | 06:34 |
| Isaiah | ...gonna use to install the drivers, but the computer im trying to install it on, does not have the capability of logging on to the internet. basically, what do i need to do to reinstall the drivers for wifi on my laptop so i can get internet, and install the rest | 06:34 |
| jeffrey | sandaru1, i have to boot in through recovery console | 06:35 |
| Veenified | Does anyone know how to play videos (typically xvid) while using compiz effects? I hear audio but only see a brightly colored static image. | 06:35 |
| Zombie | Isaiah: can you run lspci on it? | 06:35 |
| BiTMAP_ | Can I do an upgrade from fiesty to whatever they call the latest version of ubuntu without having to download the ISO? (aka through the os itself) | 06:35 |
| Rogi | scguy318: uknown interface | 06:35 |
| sandaru1 | jeffrey: try running "startx" from recovery console | 06:35 |
| scguy318 | Isaiah: well, ndiswrapper is your friend, Wine does not cover low-level aspects of the NT kernel | 06:35 |
| riotkittie | install the rest of what? | 06:35 |
| greg | jeffrey why ? | 06:35 |
| nickrud | Zombie: I think we need to step back a bit with Isaiah , lspci means nothing to him :) | 06:35 |
| scguy318 | Rogi: if you type ifconfig, what's the interface? | 06:35 |
| In_Silico | BiTMAP - yes, Go to System>Administration>Update Manager and click the Update button at the top of the window. | 06:35 |
| Rogi | scguy318: lo | 06:36 |
| jeffrey | greg because if i dont regular bootup stops at a black screen | 06:36 |
| In_Silico | I happen to be doing it now ^_^ | 06:36 |
| Rogi | it didnt start something huh | 06:36 |
| Isaiah | yeah, haha im completely new to this | 06:36 |
| scguy318 | Rogi: that's it? nada for anything else? | 06:36 |
| Rogi | no | 06:36 |
| jeffrey | sandaru i tried to do a sudo dpkg-reconfigure startupmanager | 06:36 |
| jeffrey | it didnt work tho | 06:36 |
| scguy318 | Rogi: what kind of network device do you have? | 06:36 |
| Zombie | nickrud: We need to get what chipset of card he has to see what driver he needs. | 06:36 |
| sandaru1 | jeffrey: does it show GDM? | 06:36 |
| Rogi | just a card, live cd picks it up | 06:36 |
| Veenified | Does anyone know how to play videos (typically xvid) while using compiz effects? I hear audio but only see a brightly colored static image. | 06:36 |
| jeffrey | yeah it says gdm1.5 | 06:36 |
| Rogi | scguy318: but live cd changes dont get saved so im stuck | 06:36 |
| scguy318 | Rogi: wired? hmm | 06:36 |
| nickrud | Isaiah: what kind of wifi do you have? If you open a terminal, (apps->accessories->terminal, you can type lspci there, it will tell you about some of your hardware, including your wifi | 06:37 |
| jeffrey | what do you mean by does it show gdm ? | 06:37 |
| jeffrey | all i see is text saying GDM | 06:37 |
| sandaru1 | jeffery: i mean can you see the login screen? | 06:37 |
| jeffrey | no | 06:37 |
| drgeb | well when I type "lsb_release -a" it tells me I have gutsy installed, is there away to tell that all is ok eventhough it crashed during upgarde? Is there a system integrity check somehow I can do ? | 06:37 |
| scguy318 | Rogi: some people talk about the whole LiveCD chroot process, but bleh | 06:37 |
| greg | jeffrey dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg ? | 06:37 |
| jeffrey | greg, no i didnt try that one | 06:37 |
| darkblueB|off | tomorrow I am going to work on a fresh gutsy amd64 install. I would like to get QGis running, which has a number of dependent packages. However, a couple of those listed under the gutsy page for qgis are a little old. Why couldn't I download source for those packages, build and proceed. Is this a bad idea? Does that mean that the QGis package wont work then, if versions dont match for some of the subordinate packages? | 06:37 |
| Isaiah | okay let me check | 06:37 |
| sandaru1 | jeffrey: yes, try what greg said.. that'll configure X | 06:37 |
| greg | jeffrey i would. | 06:37 |
| Rogi | scguy318: yeah, i get a black screen on install | 06:37 |
| Rogi | :( | 06:37 |
| ferronica | Can i track my (APC) UPS information on ubuntu gusty gibbon 7.10 ? | 06:38 |
| jeffrey | so sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg ? | 06:38 |
| scguy318 | ferronica: yes | 06:38 |
| scguy318 | Rogi: /etc/interfaces or w/e that file is called is beyond me, you can choose to reinstall if desired | 06:38 |
| Isaiah | woah, | 06:38 |
| nickrud | Zombie: I'm good at translation, but weak on wifi so don't go away :) | 06:38 |
| Isaiah | alot of stuff came up. what do you need ot know? | 06:38 |
| scguy318 | Rogi: if you kept your /home stuff on another part, it should be a simple matter of doing a manual and putting /home on that old /home part, and not selecting it for format | 06:38 |
| Rogi | scguy318: my card has dvi and normal outs, maybe it sends to normal? | 06:38 |
| greg | jeffrey yeah well recovery console will already be root so sudo is redundant | 06:38 |
| sandaru1 | jeffrey: before that, try running "sudo gdm" | 06:38 |
| sandaru1 | jeffrey: may be you have removed "gdm" from init.d | 06:38 |
| scguy318 | Rogi: you could check | 06:38 |
| jeffrey | should i do all the commands then reboot ? | 06:39 |
| Rogi | scguy318: how would i change that? | 06:39 |
| `LePGeL[BoY] | jeffrey: i think you'd better know what xorg does and try configuring it manually.. | 06:39 |
| nickrud | Isaiah: if you read thru it, something should should pop up as wireless, like wlan or the like | 06:39 |
| scguy318 | Rogi: dunno, I'm clueless :( | 06:39 |
| Zombie | Isaiah: can you list what was printed on the screen? | 06:39 |
| jeffrey | i just installed ubuntu a day ago so im quite new to all this | 06:39 |
| sandaru1 | if X configuration was not working.. it'll dump some error messages | 06:39 |
| scguy318 | Rogi: others here may be able to help more than I can | 06:39 |
| Zombie | Does anything there say: Broadcom? | 06:39 |
| Isaiah | just a second... | 06:39 |
| greg | jeffrey no need to reboot init 2 will be == reboot | 06:39 |
| In_Silico | Anyone have an info link for xorg? I don't even know what it is... | 06:39 |
| jeffrey | greg, what do you mean init 2 | 06:39 |
| greg | it's a command. | 06:40 |
| scguy318 | In_Silico: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X_Window_System | 06:40 |
| smmagic | !xorg | 06:40 |
| 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 | 06:40 |
| In_Silico | oh, I feel dumb. I know what Xwindows is, just didn't know it was called xorg | 06:40 |
| jeffrey | greg, so do init 2 also ? | 06:40 |
| scguy318 | In_Silico: the X.Org release is the official reference implementation | 06:40 |
| greg | jeffrey yes that will be equal to rebooting as far as testing the new settings | 06:40 |
| Isaiah | nothing came up that had to do with wlan or wifi. closest thing was ethernet controllers, and modem | 06:40 |
| * nickrud doesn't miss xfree86 either | 06:41 | |
| greg | but much faster | 06:41 |
| jeffrey | greg, just init 2 ? | 06:41 |
| jeffrey | seems odd | 06:41 |
| `LePGeL[BoY] | <jeffrey>: whats wrong with your system? | 06:41 |
| In_Silico | is it possible to load both KDE and Gnome? | 06:41 |
| nickrud | Isaiah: you could copy and paste it to the following link | 06:41 |
| nickrud | !pastebin | Isaiah | 06:41 |
| ubotu | Isaiah: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic) | 06:41 |
| greg | `LePGeL[BoY] no gui on his boxen | 06:41 |
| darkblueB|off | hmmm.. lots of traffic here.. question about building subpackages manually instead of using the package mgr | 06:41 |
| Isaiah | yeah but i cant copy paste | 06:41 |
| sandaru1 | In_Silico: yes, you can select them from the GDM | 06:42 |
| jeffrey | `LePGeL[BoY], i messed up my login and splash settings no im stuck at a black screen | 06:42 |
| Isaiah | im on 2 diferent computers. | 06:42 |
| nickrud | Isaiah: oh. | 06:42 |
| nickrud | duh | 06:42 |
| jeffrey | im gona try what everyone suggested ill be back | 06:42 |
| scguy318 | Isaiah: what card is it Isaiah? | 06:42 |
| Isaiah | this one works and its on windows, the other one doesnt and its running ubuntu | 06:42 |
| sandaru1 | jeffrey: if you don't see any error messages, try running "gdm" first | 06:42 |
| Evanlec | MasterShrek, u get that mm kernel compiled? | 06:42 |
| In_Silico | and to seem even dumber, the GDM is? | 06:42 |
| Isaiah | what do you mean what card is it? | 06:42 |
| scguy318 | In_Silico: the GNOME Desktop Manager | 06:42 |
| scguy318 | Isaiah: what is your wireless card? | 06:42 |
| Evanlec | question: is it possible to boost Tx-Power on a wifi card? | 06:42 |
| In_Silico | oh...heh, ok. | 06:42 |
| nickrud | Isaiah: like broadcom, or dell, or dlink, or the like | 06:42 |
| In_Silico | so many acronyms | 06:43 |
| `LePGeL[BoY] | jeffrey: at your black screen try typing "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop" and then "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start" if ur using gnome | 06:43 |
| Isaiah | let me check real quick.. | 06:43 |
| sandaru1 | In_Silico: you'll get used to them | 06:43 |
| nickrud | scguy318: got ya, gnome display manager | 06:43 |
| lunzi | 有人吗? | 06:43 |
| nickrud | !cn | lunzi | 06:43 |
| ubotu | lunzi: For Ubuntu help in Chinese 您可以访问中文频道： #ubuntu-cn 或者 #ubuntu-tw 或者 #ubuntu-hk | 06:43 |
| lunzi | 大家好 | 06:43 |
| lunzi | ..... | 06:43 |
| scguy318 | nickrud: you're absolutely correct | 06:43 |
| lunzi | thank you | 06:43 |
| Isaiah | i think its atheros? | 06:43 |
| greg | In_Silico gdm/kdm/xdm are all display managers gnome kde and xorg based respectively | 06:44 |
| * nickrud takes the low road, always | 06:44 | |
| In_Silico | um, how do I switch to my japanese keyboard input if I have it enabled? | 06:44 |
| In_Silico | ah, thanks greg - that's much clearer | 06:44 |
| scguy318 | Isaiah: what laptop is it? no need to figure out what chipset it is if we are gonna use the Windows drivers anyway | 06:44 |
| `LePGeL[BoY] | jeffrey: if the desktop wont work try replacing your xorg.conf from your live CD to your filesystem /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 06:44 |
| sandaru1 | In_Silico: if it's SCIM, default key binding is "Ctrl + Shift" | 06:45 |
| In_Silico | hm, it worked before but isn't now | 06:45 |
| Isaiah | its a toshiba sattelite a35-s209 | 06:45 |
| sandaru1 | `LePGeL[BoY]: jeffrey is gone | 06:45 |
| scguy318 | Isaiah: thanks, lemme fetch drivers | 06:45 |
| greg | nickrud any idea what might cause xorg to not accept the alt key in alt+ctrl+f# i have to use the sysRQ hot keys to reset the keyboard before i can break out of x ? | 06:45 |
| BobBlec | greetings :) | 06:45 |
| `LePGeL[BoY] | LOl jeffreys gone!! LOL | 06:45 |
| nickrud | greg: no clue, never had that problem before | 06:45 |
| darkblueB|off | karmelek: question about building subpackages | 06:46 |
| BobBlec | anyone familiar with netatalk? | 06:46 |
| greg | anyone ? | 06:46 |
| karmelek | darkblueB|off, ? | 06:46 |
| darkblueB|off | y | 06:46 |
| `LePGeL[BoY] | who of you guys been using GUTSY GABBER? | 06:46 |
| In_Silico | is there a command to 'repair' the network connection, like releasing and re-requesting the DHCP lease? | 06:46 |
| scguy318 | `LePGeL[BoY]: do you mean Gibbon? count me in | 06:47 |
| sandaru1 | dhclient | 06:47 |
| darkblueB|off | karmelek: tomorrow I am going to work on a fresh gutsy amd64 install. I would like to get QGis running, which has a number of dependent packages. However, a couple of those listed under the gutsy page for qgis are a little old. Why couldn't I download source for those packages, build and proceed. Is this a bad idea? Does that mean that the QGis package wont work then, if versions dont match for some of the subordinate packag | 06:47 |
| scguy318 | In_Silico: ifdown interface and ifup interface, prefix with sudo if you're not root | 06:47 |
| BobBlec | `LePGeL[BoY]: Feisty Fawn here | 06:47 |
| sandaru1 | In_Silico: dhclient | 06:47 |
| greg | In_Silico ifupdown ? | 06:47 |
| `LePGeL[BoY] | <scguy318>: yeah Gibbon. LOL for the wrong thing | 06:47 |
| In_Silico | ah, thanks much | 06:47 |
| sandaru1 | `LePGeL[BoY]: me too.. Gibbon :) | 06:47 |
| `LePGeL[BoY] | <BobBlec>: me tooo!!! | 06:47 |
| BobBlec | cpool :) | 06:48 |
| BobBlec | cool | 06:48 |
| Rogi | fd0 is CD? | 06:48 |
| scguy318 | Rogi: thats floppy | 06:48 |
| `LePGeL[BoY] | <sandaru1>: your using gibbon already? did you use the upgrade or you have a installer CD? | 06:48 |
| scguy318 | Rogi: sr0 is CD | 06:48 |
| darkblueB|off | karmelek: dont I want qgis 9 anyway? I have to build that from source, yes? | 06:48 |
| scguy318 | Rogi: i think you're asking because of the fd0 stall on LiveCD boot? | 06:48 |
| greg | Rogi only if you booted from it | 06:48 |
| Rogi | ya | 06:48 |
| scguy318 | Rogi: disable floppy disk in BIOS | 06:48 |
| sandaru1 | `LePGeL[BoY]: upgrade using "apt-get dist-upgrade" | 06:48 |
| karmelek | darkblueB|off, it could be quite good idea IMO | 06:48 |
| Rogi | k | 06:48 |
| karmelek | why not to try | 06:49 |
| In_Silico | what's gutsy's vers. #? 7.x? 8.x? | 06:49 |
| greg | so nobody knows... that's sad. | 06:49 |
| karmelek | 7.10 | 06:49 |
| BobBlec | gutsy = 7.10 | 06:49 |
| `LePGeL[BoY] | sandaru1: i know.. it takes to long to upgrade!! and im using my net that much.. i requested some CDs | 06:49 |
| nickrud | greg: no one active at the moment anyway. | 06:49 |
| darkblueB|off | karmelek: building from source instead of using packages, | 06:49 |
| `LePGeL[BoY] | <sandaru1>: so did you use the upgrade thing on ur gutsy? | 06:49 |
| jeffrey | hey | 06:49 |
| `LePGeL[BoY] | <jeffrey>: so? | 06:50 |
| darkblueB|off | karmelek: I will try then | 06:50 |
| jeffrey | what the heck was with the xserver command | 06:50 |
| jeffrey | it asked me to reconfigure everything | 06:50 |
| greg | nickrud yeah. it is deceptive, all the idlers | 06:50 |
| jeffrey | lol | 06:50 |
| In_Silico | lepgel[BoY], it's only taking about 40 minutes for me right now | 06:50 |
| sandaru1 | `LePGeL[BoY]: what upgrade thing? | 06:50 |
| nickrud | greg: yeah, have you tried both alt keys? | 06:50 |
| greg | yes | 06:50 |
| Isaiah | i appreciate your help, but its late, and i have to go. thank you though. | 06:50 |
| nickrud | I always start with the obvious | 06:50 |
| scguy318 | Isaiah: http://cdgenp01.csd.toshiba.com/content/support/downloads/atheros_wpa_driver.exeX | 06:50 |
| sandaru1 | `LePGeL[BoY]: download alternative installer CD | 06:50 |
| `LePGeL[BoY] | <sandaru1>: i mean the sudo apt-get dist-upgrade, coz i was thinking of a clean install | 06:50 |
| Isaiah | oh nvm | 06:50 |
| scguy318 | Isaiah: http://cdgenp01.csd.toshiba.com/content/support/downloads/atheros_wpa_driver.exe | 06:50 |
| jeffrey | `LePGeL[BoY], i didnt go through with the xserver command it was to lengthy and i didnt know what to input for some options | 06:50 |
| scguy318 | Isaiah: extract with file-roller, its just a ZIP EXE | 06:50 |
| Evanlec | does anyone know why gParted quits everytime you refresh the device list? | 06:51 |
| jeffrey | `LePGeL[BoY], and sudo jdm wasnt recognized | 06:51 |

| jeffrey | `LePGeL[BoY], what is ? | 06:51 |

| BobBlec | I'm having a problem getting netatalk to see my LaserWriter 4/600; the linux machine, my Mac, and the printer are all on a LAN. netatalk sees the Mac, but not the printer | 06:52 |
| Isaiah | ok | 06:53 |
| scguy318 | Isaiah: you'll also need two debs that you'll have to carry over | 06:53 |
| scguy318 | Isaiah: is the desktop i386 or amd64? | 06:53 |
| Rogi | can anyone tell me how to tell the live CD to display on DVI and not regular video out? | 06:53 |

| `LePGeL[BoY] | <jeffrey>: yeah its " sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start" | 06:53 |
| Isaiah | where would i find out? | 06:53 |
| scguy318 | Isaiah: okay, does your laptop support 64-bit? | 06:53 |
| In_Silico | Rogi: you'll probably need to install it and not use the livecd to get any driver settings customized | 06:53 |
| jeffrey | k ill brb | 06:54 |
| BobBlec | pritns fine from the Mac, but netatalk isn't seeing it in nbplkup | 06:54 |
| Isaiah | uhm haha, im basically retarded. what does that mean? | 06:54 |
| Rogi | In_Silico: text install freezes my box on start :\ | 06:54 |

| suupaabaka | i have an intel graphcis chipset. anybody know how to enable direct rendering? | 06:54 |
| hanny | hai | 06:54 |
| BobBlec | anyone have any idea what I need to do to get my linux machine to see my printer? | 06:54 |
| scguy318 | Isaiah: is your laptop a recent one that has a 64-bit CPU? judging from your response you probably just installed standard i386, k | 06:54 |
| In_Silico | Rogi: alternate iso disc, or regular 'buntu disc? | 06:54 |
| bullgard4 | What information is given in the third column of cat /proc/interrupts? | 06:54 |
| Isaiah | yah i think its 6f bit | 06:54 |
| scguy318 | Isaiah: http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/main/n/ndiswrapper/ndiswrapper-common_1.43-1ubuntu2_all.deb | 06:54 |
| scguy318 | Isaiah: Ubuntu is 64-bit? | 06:54 |
| Isaiah | oh my god, im sorry. | 06:55 |
| Isaiah | hah i dont know? | 06:55 |
| smmagic | scguy318: There is 64 bit one | 06:55 |
| Rogi | In_Silico: alt | 06:55 |
| In_Silico | rogi, did you try regular install iso too? | 06:55 |
| scguy318 | smmagic: i know, I'm asking about what he has installed :) | 06:55 |
| scguy318 | Isaiah: np, relax | 06:55 |
| Isaiah | how do i find out if its 64 bit or not? | 06:55 |
| greg | i don't know why it's doing that my xorg says Option "XkbModel" "pc104" | 06:55 |
| Rogi | In_Silico: thats live cd install and it sends to CRT on my video card i think | 06:55 |
| scragar | what't the quickest method of resizing large number of pictures? I need them all resizing to 128px high(half their origional height), but there are tones of them... | 06:55 |
| scguy318 | Isaiah: uname -a | 06:56 |
| ubuntu | helo | 06:56 |
| scguy318 | Isaiah: if your kernel is 64-bit it should say amd64, if its not it should say i686 | 06:56 |
| ubuntu | it's my 1st time here at ubuntu | 06:56 |
| In_Silico | Rogi, I had a similar issue the last time I installed 'buntu on my old box. I ended up having to switch from the livecd to alternate, and then back, and then ended up using XUbuntu | 06:56 |
| scguy318 | ubuntu: welcome | 06:56 |
| ubuntu | tnx | 06:56 |
| Evanlec | ubuntu, howdy | 06:56 |
| In_Silico | hiya, ubuntu | 06:56 |
| Rogi | In_Silico: whats xubuntu? | 06:57 |
| greg | scragar i don't know what app to use but running an app that can resize them in a while or for loop should do it nicely | 06:57 |
| scguy318 | Isaiah: in fact, i should have just said uname -m, the answer is obvious that way | 06:57 |
| Evanlec | Rogi, its ubuntu with Xfce window manager, its more light-weight | 06:57 |
| In_Silico | I believe it's an off-hardware version, but I could have been thinking of edubuntu also...I forget if they're one and the same | 06:57 |
| Isaiah | okay it says i686 | 06:57 |
| ubuntu | its cool here | 06:57 |
| ubuntu | its linux program | 06:57 |
| scguy318 | Isaiah: ok cool, your kernel is 32-bit | 06:57 |
| scguy318 | Isaiah: alright | 06:57 |

| jeffrey | anyone | 07:08 |
| nickrud | Evanlec: coming, yes. I'll probably try again on the next lts | 07:09 |
| ubuntu | obviously its only rom..but my point is it can be transfer to hdd | 07:09 |
| Evanlec | nickrud, the reason there isnt as much software out as there should be is because of all the ignorant people out there that havent read this article, or havent tried 64-bit | 07:09 |
| scragar | is there a manual page or something for nautilus-image-converter? I can't appear to find it, or the re-size option | 07:10 |

| threethirty | jsschmid: thats way over my head, you have me beat right now, if you do find a solution please email me [three@threethirty.us] id love to know | 07:26 |

| scguy318 | Isaiah: did you get that? gksudo|gedit|/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist | 07:27 |
| Lapinux | anyone here have a "linux" related project their working on that needs a place to host it? | 07:28 |
| Isaiah | yeah hang on a sec... | 07:28 |
| Lapinux | i ask because i have alot of free space on my webserver that is just sitting, not being used.... | 07:28 |
| Isaiah | woah something crazy happened | 07:29 |
| === GazzaK is now known as Gary | ||
| Rogi | so i chroot and change driver to vesa, x11 says its going to use low graphics mode, I say continue and it just sits there blinking the coursor.... wtf | 07:29 |
| scguy318 | Isaiah: a text editor should have opened up | 07:29 |
| Isaiah | yeah it has a bunch of info | 07:29 |
| miraage | Hi. Does ubuntu service startup get logged somewhere (on boot) | 07:29 |
| threethirty | jsschmid: i thought you were going to ask about mounting usb after an install, reading that i think a part of my brain exploded | 07:29 |
| scguy318 | Isaiah: okay, scroll to the bottom, make a new line | 07:29 |
| scguy318 | Isaiah: type blacklist ath_pci (or whatever it was that showed up for alternate driver | 07:29 |
| scguy318 | Isaiah: then save | 07:30 |
| Isaiah | do i have to put a # before? | 07:30 |
| jsschmid | threethirty: so? | 07:30 |
| scguy318 | Isaiah: no, # means comment | 07:30 |
| Rogi | anyone have any idea? | 07:30 |
| scguy318 | Isaiah: just put blacklist ath_pci on its own separate line then save | 07:30 |
| Isaiah | k | 07:31 |
| Isaiah | now what? | 07:31 |
| scguy318 | Isaiah: after that, please do gksudo gedit /etc/modules | 07:31 |
| Jordan_U | Rogi, Try renaming your xorg.conf ( so X configures itself at start ) or try reconfiguring your xorg.conf with: | 07:31 |
| scguy318 | Isaiah: add a new line and put ndiswrapper on its own line, then save | 07:31 |
| Jordan_U | !xconfig | Rogi | 07:31 |
| ubotu | Rogi: To reconfigure your X server, open a console and type « sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg » - To configure only the driver and resolution, type « sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh » - See also !FixRes | 07:31 |
| scguy318 | Isaiah: we're almost done here :) | 07:31 |
| katana_ | anyone knows where / is mounted in a live session? | 07:31 |
| scguy318 | Isaiah: now type sudo modprobe -r ath_pci then type sudo modprobe ndiswrapper, then ndiswrapper should be loaded and your wireless device should be functional | 07:32 |
| Rogi | Jordan_U: thanks | 07:32 |
| scguy318 | Isaiah: if thats not the case reboot | 07:32 |
| Isaiah | wait hang on a sec | 07:32 |
| CochiseIRL | katana_, /mnt/ | 07:33 |
| threethirty | jsschmid: if you are already installed sudo mount /media/[whatever the device is] works if it is an available point in fstab and i think its sudo mount auto -t /medai/[whatever the device is] if it is not in fstab | 07:33 |
| CochiseIRL | katana_, i think | 07:33 |
| Isaiah | ha can you please put the line things in the last one you typed? | 07:33 |
| katana_ | yeah but I mean, when I'm installing things in live-mode (after booting from a live cd), where are the files stored? | 07:34 |
| Curley_Sue | threethirty: it is probably done using update-rc.d or manually removing the symlinks in /etc/rc2.d | 07:34 |
| katana_ | is that in RAM? | 07:34 |
| scguy318 | Isaiah: now type sudo modprobe -r ath_pci then type sudo modprobe ndiswrapper, then ndiswrapper should be loaded and your wireless device should be functional | 07:34 |
| Isaiah | yeah, but i cant see the spaces ahah | 07:34 |
| scguy318 | Isaiah: sudo|modprobe|-r|ath_pci | 07:34 |
| scguy318 | Isaiah: sudo|modprobe|ndiswrapper | 07:35 |
| scguy318 | Isaiah: then see if Network Manager or w/e has detected your card | 07:35 |
| scguy318 | Isaiah: if not just reboot | 07:35 |
| threethirty | Curly_Sue: I have no idea what any of those files are, i'd consult someone who has a clue, im definatly not the person | 07:35 |
| Isaiah | okay let me reboot my other ocmputer real quick. | 07:35 |
| Jordan_U | Rogi, np | 07:36 |
| ferronica | my APC not working in ubuntu | 07:37 |

| Isaiah | uh, should it be like windows where its like, " found new blah blah" | 07:40 |
| scguy318 | Isaiah: no | 07:40 |
| scguy318 | Isaiah: click on the Network Manager icon | 07:40 |
| scguy318 | Isaiah: see if there are networks or w/e | 07:40 |
| Isaiah | where is that? | 07:40 |
| scguy318 | Isaiah: its in your notification tray, the black computer monitors | 07:41 |

| Isaiah | it says no | 07:41 |
| scguy318 | Isaiah: nothing when u click the notification icon? mm | 07:41 |
| scguy318 | Isaiah: fire up a Terminal, and type ndiswrapper -l | 07:41 |
| Jordan_U | Rogi, Yes, but I think to do that you need to be actually using the driver for your card ( I may be wrong though ) | 07:42 |
| Peddy | goodnight everyone | 07:42 |
| jargonjustin | I'm using XFCE and changed the theme, but any application run under sudo still uses the old theme. Is there a way to fix this? | 07:42 |

| linxuz3r | i heard ubuntu is going as public-shared ipo | 07:43 |
| linxuz3r | lol | 07:43 |
| Isaiah | yes | 07:43 |
| Isaiah | ath_pci | 07:43 |
| preaction | linxuz3r, ubuntu is an operating system, Canonical Ltd. is the corporation. we've had a discussion similar to this recently, if i recall | 07:43 |
| katana_ | When I am on a live session, where is / mounted? I mean, where are files placed that I create e.g. on the desktop? Is that in RAM? | 07:43 |
| preaction | katana_, in RAM, yes | 07:43 |
| scguy318 | Isaiah: okay, you did put ath_pci in that /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist file? | 07:44 |
| scguy318 | Isaiah: blacklist ath_pci | 07:44 |
| katana_ | oh, okay.. So is RAM split up in 2 parts? One for simulating HD, one for the real ram? | 07:44 |
| Isaiah | let me go check | 07:44 |
| Isaiah | how do i open that file again? | 07:44 |
| preaction | katana_, basically, if you have a swap partition it uses that too | 07:44 |
| scguy318 | Isaiah: gksudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist | 07:44 |
| scguy318 | Isaiah: gksudo|gedit|/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist | 07:44 |
| linxuz3r | yes ubuntu is a nice os | 07:44 |
| === Tomcat_` is now known as Tomcat_ | ||
| linxuz3r | sorry preaction | 07:45 |
| katana_ | oh, okay, that's the case.. how can I find out which partitions are mounted? | 07:45 |
| Isaiah | yeah its there | 07:45 |
| scguy318 | katana_: mount | 07:45 |
| preaction | !offtopic | linxuz3r | 07:45 |
| ubotu | linxuz3r: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! | 07:45 |
| Isaiah | what should it look like? | 07:45 |
| scguy318 | Isaiah: blacklist ath_pci | 07:45 |
| preaction | katana_, or cat /etc/mtab | 07:45 |
| Isaiah | thats exactly what it says | 07:46 |
| altair | i have a question, do different WM save on energy, i just want to save battery life | 07:46 |
| katana_ | oh, okay.. thx :) How does the swap partition is called? | 07:46 |
| preaction | katana_, swap is never mounted. it's activated with "swapon" and deactivated with "swapoff" | 07:46 |
| katana_ | aha, okay :) | 07:46 |
| redtux | jargonjustin: it's the same here w/ qt- or gtk-apps (kde/gnome). i guess you also have to change the settings for the user root. - or at least copy your qtrc, gtkrc etc. personally, i would consider that a bug. | 07:46 |

| inversekinetix | tootoot just post your question | 08:05 |

| MrMoneybags | Ahh no, well see I just burned a copy of 7.10 and got it on my desktop but with a few flaws | 08:06 |
| tony_ | m11 --> So no wireless is what your saying? | 08:06 |
| MrMoneybags | However it won't even install on my laptop | 08:06 |
| tony_ | m11 --> or I guess, no cd/ | 08:06 |

| inversekinetix | tony could you do it from a usb device? | 08:08 |
| redtux | DiViN3: how have you set up your network on the ubuntu box? no /sbin/ifconfig on your ubuntu system??? | 08:08 |

| inversekinetix | m11, Im only 2 weeks into linux so Im not xpert, but i for windows I have pulled drives out of machines and put them in others to install the OS then put the drives back in the original machines and installed the drivers, can you do this for linux? | 08:15 |
| sandaru1 | <inversekinetix> : yes, you can.... but it better be the same kernel.. just copy the kernel modules | 08:16 |
| sandaru1 | then use modprobe | 08:16 |
| redtux | DiViN3: again, how have you set up your network on the ubuntu box? | 08:16 |

| m11 | oh my, i think i got it runing | 08:18 |
| sandaru1 | <inversekinetix>: it's always better recompile the drivers on new machine | 08:19 |
| m11 | inversekinetix: i think i got it runing, tnx for links | 08:19 |
| murkyMurk | inversekinetix: ubuntu has a dynamic module architecture so in theory any new hardware will be dealt with at boot time but that process will be less troublesome with less 'new' hardware | 08:19 |

| scguy318 | ac: yes | 08:37 |

| scguy318 | Ademan: a lot of games aren't designed for SMP systems | 08:37 |

| In_Silico | inverse: make my 2nd one the main monitor? | 08:40 |
| scguy318 | ac: if theres a possible upgrade you would be allowed to upgrade there | 08:40 |
| ac | scguy318: I'm not running gnome or xfce or anything like that. What's the name of the executable? | 08:40 |
| scguy318 | ac: gnome-update-manager I think | 08:41 |
| suupaabaka | sandaru]: The output is: "direct rendering: No (LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT set)" | 08:41 |
| inversekinetix | In_Silico physically unplug them monitors and change the cables | 08:41 |
| bullgard4 | What is the function of the loaded module 'serio_raw' (Raw serio driver'? | 08:41 |

| Sharpie | what does the ubufox extension do? | 08:41 |
| Cypher | how does one use and install Emerald themes???? | 08:41 |
| iStiKs | sudo apt-get upgrade | 08:41 |
| scguy318 | Sharpie: seamless integration of Ubuntu repo with Firefox plugins, something like that ish | 08:41 |
| inversekinetix | Cypher do it through synaptic | 08:41 |
| Ademan | scguy318: ah, sorry, i just got the impression you knew something i didn't lol | 08:41 |
| In_Silico | uh...will that change where they are in relation to eachother, or will they be redetected and reassigned? | 08:41 |
| ac | scguy318: does that modify sources.list automatically? | 08:41 |
| scguy318 | ac: yes | 08:41 |
| scguy318 | ac: automatic and all that | 08:41 |
| scguy318 | anyway im gonna really go for real | 08:42 |
| Sharpie | scguy318: and it disables the update button, so i can't get 2.0.0.9 | 08:42 |
| scguy318 | cya all | 08:42 |
| sandaru1 | suupaabaka: i'm not sure direct rendering is supported by i915 drivers.. as far as i remember intel drivers support that | 08:42 |
| inversekinetix | In_Silico it probably will | 08:42 |
| scguy318 | Sharpie: can't upgrade Firefox unless you want to do it yourself :P | 08:42 |
| ac | scguy318: thanks :P | 08:42 |
| scguy318 | Sharpie: since Ubuntu is all about version stability | 08:42 |
| scguy318 | k im going for real cya | 08:42 |
| sandaru1 | suupaabaka: in /etc/X11/xorg.conf file, there is a section called "Device".. what's the driver used there? | 08:42 |
| Sharpie | cya | 08:42 |
| Cypher | inversekinetix does Emerald go along with Compiz Fusion or do you have to use one or the other? | 08:43 |
| === greedo_ is now known as greedo | ||
| Cypher | im trying to figure it out. | 08:43 |
| inversekinetix | Cypher Im using it now, theres only one theme I have that I like, | 08:43 |
| suupaabaka | sandaru]: It's the "i810" driver. I switched to that from "intel" in the hopes of getting Direct Rendering to work, but to no avial. | 08:43 |
| redtux | new2Ubuntu: when you connect through USB, the device should be reachable through /dev/ttyACM0 (or ACM1, 2 etc.) - this can be checked by running "tail -f /var/log/syslog" before you plug in your mobile... | 08:44 |
| linknet | kkk | 08:44 |
| Cypher | so can you also use compiz fusion with it | 08:44 |
| Cypher | ? | 08:44 |
| linknet | maybe | 08:44 |
| sandaru1 | suupaabaka add : Option "DRI" "true" | 08:44 |
| inversekinetix | Cypher Yes. compiz is a window manager and emerald is a window decorator ( i think theyre the right terms) | 08:44 |
| cdrrx | hello i've freshly installed xubuntu and i've a problem with firefox - it takes 20 seconds to display a tab - it seems to be a solution here http://forum.ubuntu-fr.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1249126#p1249126 but ican't save my file ... remember i'm new on xubuntu ... could anyone take my problem in charge. thanks in advance ^ | 08:44 |
| suupaabaka | sandaru | 08:45 |
| suupaabaka | sandaru]: Done. | 08:45 |
| Cypher | i keep trying to install emerald themes | 08:45 |
| Cypher | but it's not working :\ | 08:45 |
| inversekinetix | Cypher after you install Emerald youll get a control panel in SYSTEM ＞＞＞PREFERENCES | 08:45 |
| inversekinetix | Cypher what isnt working? | 08:45 |
| Cypher | i can't get an emerald theme to load | 08:45 |
| sandaru1 | suupaabaka: this is kinda trial and error, you'll have to restart X and see :) | 08:45 |
| inversekinetix | cypher do you have the program installed? | 08:46 |
| suupaabaka | sandaru]: Will do... I'll be back :D | 08:46 |
| Cypher | i can see emerald theme manager in pref | 08:46 |
| inversekinetix | cypher start the emerald manager | 08:46 |
| Cypher | i'd assume so.. | 08:46 |
| demosthenes | anyone had any luck with the AverMedia Hybrid TV/FM PCI card? | 08:46 |
| Cypher | i did thayt | 08:46 |
| Cypher | and then i try to click on a theme | 08:46 |
| In_Silico | Ok, awesome - now I switched the monitors and they're backwards...any way to get my desktop back on the other one? | 08:46 |
| Cypher | and it doesn't load the theme.. | 08:46 |
| Cypher | i have a theme highlighted right now | 08:47 |
| inversekinetix | Cypher did you restart after installing it? | 08:47 |
| Cypher | now what? | 08:47 |
| cdrrx | anyone ? | 08:47 |
| In_Silico | heh, nevermind...guess it's just drag the bars and drop them :P | 08:47 |
| inversekinetix | Cypher double click on the theme and it should apply it, i had to restart to get it to work | 08:47 |
| Cypher | does it show that it was applyed | 08:48 |
| Cypher | or just double click and restart? | 08:48 |
| inversekinetix | Cypher it should just apply it | 08:48 |

| inversekinetix | Cypher I dont know, will they still work? | 08:50 |
| redtux | DiViN3: so you can ping your windoze-box? can you reach the ubuntu box from your windoze-box? | 08:50 |
| new2Ubuntu | Redtux Tipically best working phones are Motorola, good ones are also SonyEricsson. The worst are Nokia (unless someone will help us with gammu engine). | 08:50 |

| sandaru1 | !pastebin | suupaabaka | 08:51 |

| new2Ubuntu | Will check that out redtux thanks for the help :) | 08:55 |
| suupaabaka | sandaru1: Should I put that in my xorg.conf? | 08:55 |

| redtux | new2Ubuntu: np :) - tell me if it worked - i've been fighting w/ bluetooth pairing & obex here... will try gnokii now. :) | 08:57 |

| inversekinetix | Cypher np, if you get ones that are a bit taller than the height of your desktop and animate it, it will look cool | 09:00 |

| Gary | co^ganteng, this is a support channel, please take chat to -offtopic please | 09:00 |
| co^ganteng | where are you from | 09:01 |
| sybariten | i am running emacs 21.4, got it via apt | 09:01 |

| suupaabaka | sandaru1: Here's the link http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/43521/ | 09:01 |
| sybariten | i suspect i have quite an old ubuntu version | 09:01 |

| anvilsmith | Ademan , http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=3715488#post3715488 | 09:02 |

| anvilsmith | Ademan, hope you're still here to read this. I'll log off. | 09:02 |
| co^ganteng | hey | 09:02 |
| Ademan | thanks anvilsmith | 09:02 |
| ac | and that would go and do cpan commands, and free you from learning how to use all those other package managers | 09:02 |
| zombie_monkey | redtux: no idea, but i have had similar problems with all versions sice 6.10, as have two otehr people that I know use ubuntu. So I have to delete all the instances of "web" in sources.list? | 09:03 |

| === PirateLeChuck__ is now known as PirateLeChuck | ||
| mwazn1 | @ sorto, when I did it I just booted from the cd and the first option is to resize the partition | 10:14 |
| jval | i'm asking what kind of general differences there are | 10:14 |
| soundray | Karotte: one of the most flexible (and cheap) ways is to get a pair of old ATI Radeon PCI cards (e.g. Mach64). You'll be able to run separate X servers on them, or use xinerama. The open source drivers will work, even in accelerated 3D. | 10:14 |
| mwazn1 | you put in how big you want it to be and it pretty much does it for you | 10:14 |
| sorto | mwazn1: that was with 7.10? Cause my first option was 'Guided' and I thought it was saying it would just use the whole harddrive. | 10:15 |
| mwazn1 | o might have been the second option | 10:15 |
| redtux | art: you might try http://www.acetoneteam.org/central.html :) | 10:15 |
| mwazn1 | but it says resize the partition | 10:15 |
| Karotte | soundray: well it should be a newer card, I don't want to buy something too old | 10:15 |
| soundray | Karotte: if you haven't got the slots, and/or want to buy new, get NVidia, but avoid the high end. | 10:15 |
| mwazn1 | if it doesn't... then I'm out cause that's the only way I know of | 10:16 |
| sorto | mwazn1: ok, I'll do it again.. the laptop is just degragmenting (cause I forgot to do that the first time so it was good I aborted anyway).. will take like another hour to finish though. | 10:16 |
| soundray | Karotte: the medium range cards have two video outputs. | 10:16 |

| soundray | jxxt: definitely | 10:51 |
| jval | redtux: i got the impression that if the most important thing is stability (no broken package relations), debian stable is perhaps a little bit better because they don't release until all blocker bugs have been fixed - ubuntu is released every 6 months and the server edition matures in time sure, but debian perhaps guarantees better that the tree is stable when the release initially happens - something like that | 10:52 |

| filosofix | Weirdweekend : taste | 11:18 |
| Ackdar | have you used both? | 11:18 |
| Weirdweekend_ | some basic understanding of what it is | 11:18 |
| soundray | !gnome | Weirdweekend_ | 11:18 |
| ubotu | Weirdweekend_: gnome is a project that provides two things: The GNOME desktop environment, an intuitive and attractive desktop for end-users, users, and the GNOME development platform, an extensive framework for building applications that integrate into the rest of the desktop. | 11:18 |
| Russian | comsa: tnx I check it out | 11:18 |
| Ackdar | To fully understand the difference, you'll need to experience both | 11:18 |
| soundray | !kde | Weirdweekend_ | 11:18 |
| ubotu | Weirdweekend_: KDE (http://kde.org) is the !desktop environment used natively in !Kubuntu. To install from Ubuntu: « sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop », or see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingKDE . Latest KDE version is 3.5.8 for Gusty and Feisty, 3.5.6 for Edgy, and 3.5.5 for Dapper. See http://kubuntu.org for more information. | 11:18 |
| Russian | ! Video Driver | 11:19 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about video driver - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 11:19 |
| Weirdweekend_ | I can have both on the same system? | 11:19 |
| Ackdar | !drivers | 11:19 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about drivers - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 11:19 |
| Ackdar | hrm | 11:19 |
| Pyrobyte | Weirdweekend_: yes | 11:19 |
| redtux | Russian: you mean something like dpkg -l xserver-xorg-video-intel ? | 11:19 |
| soundray | Weirdweekend_: yes, you choose at login time which you want to use for the session | 11:19 |
| Russian | redtux: I just want to check what Video driver I currently have installed, because I want to follow a guide for compiz, I am using Ati Radeon 9600 XT | 11:20 |
| Ackdar | I've folloed all the instructions in the WiFi troubleshooting, and it seems nobody is having my problem | 11:20 |
| Weirdweekend_ | cool I'll give it a go. So to make sure I get this - they both do the graphical stuff? | 11:20 |
| bloony | how do I rename a folder? | 11:20 |
| Arsanerit | mv a b | 11:20 |
| bloony | k | 11:21 |
| redtux | Russian: ubuntu usually installs _all_ (freely) available video drivers - you want to know, which one you are currently using? | 11:21 |
| Russian | yeo | 11:21 |
| Russian | redtux: yes please | 11:21 |
| soundray | Weirdweekend_: they are both "desktop environments" | 11:21 |
| Russian | redtux: I am following this guide: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=588428 | 11:22 |
| Russian | redtux: and I am here: First install 8.42 and make sure it is working. | 11:22 |
| redtux | Russian: grep Driver /etc/X11/xorg.conf -> ignore kdb, mouse, wacom... | 11:22 |
| Russian | so I want to check if its already installed ornot | 11:22 |
| buttercups | Russian, then fglrxinfo, what cosma suggested to you | 11:22 |
| sysop | anyone know of a good DVD authoring tool, that will do custom menu's? | 11:22 |
| Weirdweekend_ | ok thank you soundray. so is beyrl something that fits on top of gnome or KDE | 11:22 |
| redtux | Russian: dpkg -l xserver-xorg-video-ati ;) | 11:23 |
| Russian | redtux: I want to install the newest driver | 11:23 |
| Russian | redtux: Check pm please, I have pasted results | 11:24 |
| comsa | ther is a good page for that hang on a mo | 11:24 |

| soundray | !beryl | Weirdweekend_: | 11:24 |
| ubotu | Weirdweekend_:: Beryl has been merged with Compiz to form Compiz-Fusion. New Beryl installs are discouraged. See also !compiz | 11:24 |

| ubotu | Weirdweekend_:: Compiz (compositing window manager) and XGL (X server architecture layered on top of OpenGL) - Howto at http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager - help in #compiz-fusion | 11:25 |
| Russian | redtux: tnx can you guide me trough this please? | 11:25 |
| redtux | Russian: i'm trying... ;) | 11:25 |
| Russian | redtux: I am trying to follow this guide :http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=588428 | 11:26 |
| Russian | redtux: If you are using the gutsy repo version of compiz, it will not work by default with any fglrx driver, including the newly released 8.42., Which is true | 11:26 |
| redtux | Russian: type "dpkg -l xorg-driver-fglrx" | 11:26 |
| Weirdweekend_ | understood but what is it & how does it relate to gnome or kde? | 11:26 |
| Russian | redtux: result: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/43526/ | 11:27 |
| sysop | Is there a good DVD authoring tool, that will do custom menu's? | 11:27 |
| SpinBoson | redtux: Is the new fglrx driver out yet? I had serious issues with the last one trying to set up a dual-head | 11:27 |
| redtux | SpinBoson: i'm not using non-free software, sorry - dunno... ;) just told Russian how to check the version of his driver. | 11:28 |
| soundray | Weirdweekend_: it's just for gnome I think. I don't know anything about effects in KDE though. | 11:28 |
| SpinBoson | redtux: thanks. | 11:28 |
| redtux | Russian: "apt-cache search fglrx" is your friend... maybe you need to build from source. | 11:28 |

| Turgon | Hello. After quite some searching and trying, I am beginning to suspect that I can't synchronize my nokia N70 with Evolution because Ubuntu (7.10) uses a quite old version of the "opensync" package. Would it be proper to request an upgrade at Lauchpad, with "Wishlist" importance? I ask first here so I don't add any needless clutter there). Thanks for your time and patience. | 11:29 |

| TTilus | nautilus cant ssh-connect to box behind nat/portforward, ssh client works fine but nautilus says it cannot open location ssh://terotil@mynatbox:2222/home/terotil, looks like this is because host key check fails, because if i move ~/.ssh/known_hosts away it asks to save host key and works, ergo: how can i configure nautilus to do something like ssh client does with HostKeyAlias config option? | 11:31 |

| samad909 | ) I am having problems with gutsy installation, I am on windows and trying to install linux on some unallocated space and the install goes well but when it reaches configuring apt and after it asks for the http proxy and once the input is given, it stops responding...I tried cd integrity check and tried installing a couple of times but with no luck..any ideas? | 11:41 |
| Foxdie | hi :) take it you like your mud? | 11:41 |
| samad909 | oh and btw I am using ubuntu-alternate as the livecd does not work with my system | 11:42 |
| ikonia | samad909: how are you trying to install from windows | 11:42 |
| sjovan | samad909: what happens when you try to use the normal cd? | 11:42 |
| samad909 | ikonia: I meant right now on windows but boot off the cd and install | 11:43 |
| sysop | samad909: if the cd does not work, you are going to have problems, my suggestion... upgrrade your hardware so the CD install works :-) | 11:43 |
| soundray | Russian: I see | 11:43 |
| samad909 | sjovan: livecd wont run, dont know why, specs -2.4ghz / 1.5gb ram /256mb vga nvidia | 11:43 |
| Russian | soundray: Any help? | 11:43 |
| samad909 | sysop: already good hardware | 11:43 |
| ikonia | sysop thats a nonsense statment - please don't say that | 11:43 |
| soundray | Russian: the \ on the line before means that the line continues. | 11:44 |
| sjovan | samad909: try to download the 7.04 iso and install that and then just upgrade to 7.10. i know of many people that have different issues with the 7.10 cd | 11:44 |
| ikonia | samad909 ignore that - your hardware could be fine | 11:44 |
| Russian | soundray: What do you mean? | 11:44 |
| sysop | samad909: all of you hardware is good, including the CD/DVD drive, cool, then just do the live CD install! | 11:44 |
| samad909 | sjovan: any other option? | 11:44 |
| samad909 | ikonia: will do, any option? | 11:44 |
| Russian | soundray: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/43528/ | 11:44 |
| ikonia | samad909: could you explain the problems with the live cd install | 11:44 |
| samad909 | sysop: wont help, livecds dont work with my system, tried a lot of them | 11:45 |
| ikonia | sysop he's just said he can't use the live cd, stop trolling him | 11:45 |
| sjovan | samad909: could be, but why not just do it the easy way insted of strugeling with the 7.10 cd? | 11:45 |
| samad909 | ikonia: the live session wont load | 11:45 |
| samad909 | ikonia: the cd loads quarter way and then stops responding | 11:45 |
| ikonia | samad909 samad909 at what point does it work / not work | 11:45 |
| ikonia | samad909 so you get teh ubuntu boot splash with the moving bar and then it stops, or does it proress beyond that | 11:46 |
| Pyrobyte | i had the same problam as samad909, alternate cd did the job | 11:46 |
| soundray | Russian: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/43529/ | 11:46 |
| samad909 | ikona: yes | 11:46 |
| sysop | samad909: if your hardware is good the CD should be no problem, if not you NEED to fix the hardware... it may be possible to install with broken hardware, but not recommended! | 11:46 |
| samad909 | Pyrobyte: i tried the alternative too but it gets stuck at apt conf | 11:46 |
| ikonia | sysop thats nosense | 11:46 |
| Foxdie | Offroader: do you like 4x4s? | 11:46 |
| samad909 | sysop: nothing is broken.. | 11:46 |
| ikonia | samad909 lets work through this one step at at a time. | 11:46 |
| samad909 | ikonia: ok.. | 11:46 |
| ikonia | samad909: does it stop on the ubuntu logo while loading ? | 11:47 |
| Russian | soundray: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/43530/ | 11:47 |
| soundray | Russian: that step has been successful now. | 11:47 |
| samad909 | ikonia: yes at the part where the ubuntu logo and the progress bar is | 11:47 |
| sysop | ikonia/samad909: well then WHY doesn't the CD work? | 11:47 |
| sjovan | samad909: i everything els fail, try the 7.04 iso. that's my tip | 11:47 |
| samad909 | sysop: I have no idea! | 11:47 |
| Russian | soundray: what is wrong with this then? debconf libstdc++5 linux-headers-generic | 11:47 |
| samad909 | sjovan: thanks | 11:47 |
| sysop | samad909: did you try the CD? | 11:47 |
| samad909 | sysop: yes | 11:48 |
| sjovan | you can upgrade in X to the 7.10 system | 11:48 |
| ikonia | sysop it may fail to detect something, his video card may not be detected etc etc, but I'm going to work that through with him rather than tell him his hardwre is roke | 11:48 |
| Russian | soundray: or it does not matter? | 11:48 |
| soundray | Russian: it's not supposed to be entered. It's just a continuation of the previous line | 11:48 |
| Russian | aah oke | 11:48 |
| dgjones | sysop, just because a livecd doesn't work, doesn't mean that there's problems, I have a laptop that works prefectly as long as the alternative cd is used to install, it just won't work with the livecd because of the video drivers needed | 11:48 |
| soundray | Russian: in other words: you've done it. | 11:48 |
| sysop | samad909: so, if you tried the CD, it must of given you an error, what was it? | 11:48 |
| Russian | soundray: would you recommend me to paste all lines at once, as stated, or 1 by 1 (what I was doing) | 11:48 |
| ikonia | sysop he said it hangs on the kernel boot pogress bar | 11:48 |
| Russian | soundray: when following this guide http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=575843 | 11:48 |
| samad909 | sysop: desktop cd: gets stuck at ubuntu progress bar load point...alternate cd: gets stuck at apt conf 40% | 11:49 |

| soundray | Russian: yw | 11:49 |
| samad909 | sysop: you mean safe graphics mode? | 11:50 |
| sysop | sammad909: no, with the VGA mod on lo res, Safe Graphics did NOT work 4 me either | 11:51 |
| samad909 | sysop: how can i set that? | 11:51 |
| samad909 | sysop: what is the boot option? | 11:51 |

| ikonia | sysop: what are you talking about, vga mode on low res ? | 11:52 |
| sysop | sammad909: OK when you boot, there as an option on the bottom called VGA I think its F4, select it and select the smallest resolution | 11:52 |
| ikonia | sysop: he's getting beyond that, he's getting the boto splash | 11:53 |
| ikonia | boot | 11:53 |
| sysop | ikonia: its what I had to do to install | 11:53 |
| ikonia | oh - so now your telling me it may not be his hardware | 11:53 |
| soundray | Russian: one by one is okay. Just when a line and in a backslash (\), it means that the next line is actually part of this line, so you have to combine the two in one command. | 11:53 |
| ikonia | sysop: your just offering random comments rather than working it through | 11:53 |

| neozen | chriswaterguy: specifically the network card... | 12:03 |
| samad909 | ikonia: 1.5gb | 12:03 |
| ikonia | samad909: again - more than enough, so thats a good start. | 12:03 |
| samad909 | ikonia: ok...what is next? | 12:03 |
| neozen | Crozar: if wacom built the beast.... there is hope | 12:03 |
| chriswaterguy | neozen: looking... (it's a thinkpad R60) | 12:03 |
| ikonia | samad909: ok the first thing we need to check - which I apologies as it is tedious is 1.) The CD - can you run the cd self check to make sure the actual cd is working fine please. Its long and drawn out, I appriciate | 12:04 |
| Scypher | i always like linux, but i can't find anything to do on it since i play game, so i tend to switch back to windows... plus linux doesnt seem to have whole lot of codecs | 12:04 |
| neozen | chriswaterguy: nice | 12:04 |
| neozen | chriswaterguy: that's what I've got | 12:04 |
| Scypher | codecs for mkv, mp1-4 , mov | 12:04 |
| Jefis | Hello, i'm trying to build "omnibook" kernel module, i compiled it, installed it, but i fail to load it | 12:04 |
| Crozar | because my friend want to trade it with my toshiba laptop | 12:04 |
| chriswaterguy | neozen: cool! | 12:04 |
| Jefis | kernel reports that it can't find suck a module | 12:04 |
| samad909 | ikonia: I already did the cd - integrity check.. | 12:04 |
| Jefis | any ideas how to fix? | 12:04 |
| neozen | chriswaterguy: if it is indeed an r60, should have an intel pro wireless 3945abg | 12:04 |
| ikonia | samad909 ok - thats one good step | 12:04 |
| samad909 | ikonia: both the cds have been checked | 12:04 |
| chriswaterguy | k | 12:04 |
| neozen | chriswaterguy: which os are you running? | 12:04 |
| Crozar | my laptop is 17 inch with geforce FX and 1gig ram and 40GB harddisk sata 7200 rpm 2.4ghz | 12:04 |
| neozen | chriswaterguy: *version | 12:05 |
| ikonia | samad909 1 momen,t sorry, my phone is ringning | 12:05 |
| chriswaterguy | neozen: just installed Ubuntu 7.10. Wifi radar was running fine on Xubuntu. | 12:05 |
| samad909 | ikonia: np | 12:05 |
| neozen | chriswaterguy: ;p | 12:05 |
| Crozar | the hp is 2.4 with 2 GIG ram and 256mb card intel mobile and touch screen with fingerprint also neozen | 12:05 |
| Crozar | is it a nice trade? | 12:05 |
| chriswaterguy | neozen: thought to be honest, "fine" wasn't that impressive, but at least it worked. If there were another wifi program, I'd try it. | 12:05 |
| neozen | chriswaterguy: can network manager find an access point? | 12:05 |
| Crozar | he wants gaming i want entertainment :D | 12:05 |
| chriswaterguy | neozen: not sure what you mean, but wifi-radar shows the two wifi networks I can (normally) log into here | 12:06 |
| Scypher | samad909: which program do you use to play mkv files? | 12:06 |
| samad909 | Scypher: vlc | 12:06 |
| Crozar | if touch screen works with ubuntu and compiz it will be something very very good and thats good if they compiz focus on touch screen bindings | 12:06 |
| akujin | Scypher, linux is just another way of doing the same things that you do in windows. they both have their ups and downs, People all have their own reasons for choosing one over the other, but a common reason for linux users is it's openness. You can find out for yourself every tiny little detail in the system. In windows it's hidden to the user. | 12:06 |
| ikonia | samad909: sorry about that. Ok so you've checked the cd which is great and your livecd hangs but the alternativ cd boots but hangs at install points | 12:06 |
| samad909 | Scypher: that is what I use, you can use the default too | 12:07 |
| ikonia | samad909: ughh, really sorry, phone again, 2 minutes | 12:07 |
| samad909 | ikonia: yes, np | 12:07 |
| neozen | ok.... the hell happened to ibm-acpi in gutsy? | 12:07 |
| chriswaterguy | neozen: should have said: Wifi radar was running fine on Xubuntu 7.04. | 12:07 |
| neozen | that went away? | 12:07 |
| neozen | chriswaterguy: look in your system tray in ubuntu | 12:07 |
| samad909 | ikonia: desktop: hangs at boot load screen alt: hangs after everything is installed and when it goes to apt configure, after asking for the HTTP proxy it hangs | 12:08 |
| Scypher | samad909: have you got all the codecs working with vlc? | 12:08 |
| chriswaterguy | neozen: bottom, top...? | 12:08 |
| * neozen ponders | 12:08 | |
| samad909 | Scypher: well mkv was the only file i play with vlc, rest with the default players | 12:08 |
| neozen | chriswaterguy: by default, top right I believe | 12:08 |
| neozen | chriswaterguy: could be wrong though... | 12:08 |
| chriswaterguy | neozen: all default at the moment. i've more experience with Windows... | 12:09 |
| samad909 | played* | 12:09 |
| chriswaterguy | neozen: what am i looking for? | 12:09 |
| hana | je tu čech | 12:09 |
| neozen | chriswaterguy: I see... | 12:09 |
| chriswaterguy | neozen: ah | 12:09 |
| neozen | chriswaterguy: got it? | 12:09 |
| liddan | How do I stop ubuntu from creating new .trash folders whenever I delete something? And how do I set it up so that when i hit delete the file is removed and not moved to trash? | 12:09 |
| chriswaterguy | neozen: damn that's snazzy! | 12:10 |
| chriswaterguy | neozen: is that separate from wifi-radar? | 12:10 |
| neozen | chriswaterguy: yes | 12:10 |
| chriswaterguy | neozen: yeah... thanks! | 12:10 |
| neozen | chriswaterguy: that's a front end to network manager | 12:10 |
| neozen | chriswaterguy: and completely installable in xubuntu | 12:10 |
| chriswaterguy | neozen: wow, excellent. i didn't like wifi-manager that much. | 12:10 |
| neozen | chriswaterguy: (what I'm currently using to do wireless atm) | 12:10 |
| bullgard4 | Welche Funktion hat das geladene Modul 'serio_raw' (Raw serio driver')? | 12:11 |
| samad909 | btw general question: adsl or wimax? | 12:11 |
| chriswaterguy | neozen: i had quite a few reasons for moving from xubuntu... if i were much much more experienced, I might have stuck with it | 12:11 |
| chriswaterguy | neozen: i'm going to unplug. if i get disconnected... then I'll probably be back for more help :D | 12:12 |

| chriswaterguy | Hi - I've just installed 7.10, and I set up a 9 GB primary partition and installed in that. I thought I'd get an option to select my home directly in the other partition, where all my files are. How do I fix this? | 12:33 |
| popey | chriswaterguy: you can do that manually during the install | 12:33 |
| chriswaterguy | popey: someone told me that, but it didn't offer me the option, and I didn't know where to look for it. | 12:34 |
| popey | chriswaterguy: it doesnt offer the option, no, you have to manually partition | 12:34 |
| chriswaterguy | ok | 12:35 |
| chriswaterguy | popey: can I fix it now, or reinstall? | 12:35 |
| popey | chriswaterguy: you can do it after install, but it's easier during the install | 12:35 |
| stefg | chriswaterguy: you only get that option when you select manual partitioning. The auto-installer jsut does swap and one partition for everything | 12:35 |

| Crozar | bosnianboy, yes? | 12:36 |
| bosnianboy | dhcp... nope... | 12:36 |
| popey | chriswaterguy: it's not too hard, you just need to create three partitions, one for / (10G perhaps), one for swap and one for /home | 12:36 |

| chriswaterguy | popey: that's weird. maybe one is the *old* swap partition? Home would be sda1, the 64 GB one. | 12:56 |

| chriswaterguy | I had Xubuntu on this machine. It looked like I could keep my old stuff, and I thought that looked safer and cleaner than relying on my backup. | 12:59 |

| achadwick | bloony: yes, but only if it's using the disk as virtual memory (so-called "swap") | 13:16 |
| Pici | bloony: Well, if it needs to use swap, it'll be slower because it needs to access the disk. | 13:16 |

| resc | I just updated libc6 on Gutsy/amd64 and it hung during upgrade and now init segfaults when I try to boot... any recommendations where to go from here? | 13:18 |
| popey | bullgard4: the connector needs resources inside the computer whether you have something attached or not | 13:18 |
| achadwick | bloony: Panel, right button > Add to Panel > System Monitor to keep tabs on swap and RAM. Pretty graphs... | 13:18 |
| popey | resc: where did you get the libc6 from? | 13:18 |
| resc | popey, from gutsy-updates | 13:18 |
| resc | i guess the package might have been 'libc6-i686'. | 13:19 |
| bloony | okay | 13:19 |
| popey | libc6-i686_2.6.1-1ubuntu10_i386.deb | 13:19 |
| bullgard4 | popey: Please explain why it issues IRQs although there is no device attached which triggers any IRQ. | 13:19 |
| popey | probably | 13:19 |
| resc | yes, that's the right version | 13:19 |
| popey | bullgard4: I don't have time to explain pc hardware fundamentals, sorry | 13:20 |

| popey | bullgard4: i never said it triggers irqs, just that the device needs an IRQ to hang off of | 13:21 |

| nintendo64 | why is ubuntu so hard to install -.- | 13:25 |
| jhaig | jrib: Thanks (although for the first package I tried it didn't work) | 13:25 |
| jhaig | nintendo64: In what way is it hard to install? | 13:26 |
| nintendo64 | I cant get it to do anything | 13:26 |
| jrib | jhaig: sometimes it takes a while for the chanelogs to show up at changelogs.ubuntu.com which is where it looks | 13:26 |
| ikonia | nintendo64: can you explain your problems a little more specific | 13:26 |
| nintendo64 | If I try doing naything from the CD boot menu it just freezes | 13:26 |
| nintendo64 | * anything | 13:26 |
| jhaig | jrib: OK, it was a package in today's updates, so maybe the changelog isn't there yet. | 13:26 |
| ikonia | at what point does ti freeze, before or after you press enter | 13:26 |
| achadwick | If Debian boot media make milk go sour, Knoppix ones probably make fermented yogurt beverage. But we've used them anyway when fixing some things (crazy SCSI kit, grr). | 13:26 |
| nintendo64 | after | 13:26 |
| ikonia | nintendo64 have you tried all the options ? | 13:27 |
| NixonInnes | nintendo64: Are you trying to install Ubuntu from the GUI? | 13:27 |
| nintendo64 | what options | 13:27 |
| ikonia | nintendo64 you should have boot/install, memory check, check cd, rescue mode | 13:27 |
| nintendo64 | ya they all freeze | 13:27 |
| Pici | nintendo64: Have you tried the Alternate CD? | 13:27 |
| ikonia | nintendo64 you've tried them all ? | 13:27 |
| NixonInnes | nintendo64: I mean the GUI live-dCD | 13:27 |
| NixonInnes | nintendo64: I had the same problem, i solved it by using the alternative disk | 13:28 |
| nintendo64 | What's the alternitive disk | 13:28 |
| ChuckFu | can anyone help with a Dirt easy setup of DNS using the qui base configuratino tool | 13:28 |
| nintendo64 | can ubuntu run any nintendo 64 emulators | 13:28 |
| NixonInnes | nintendo: on the website, when you dl'd the ISO, there is an option for an alternative disk which install Ubuntu using a text based installer | 13:29 |
| NixonInnes | nintendo: it's better for low RAM systems | 13:29 |
| nintendo64 | the minimum is 312 or something and I have 512 | 13:29 |
| NixonInnes | nintedo: like my laptop, which only had 256RAM | 13:29 |
| NixonInnes | nintendo: try the alternative disk | 13:29 |
| nintendo64 | ok | 13:30 |
| nintendo64 | if I uset he alternitive disk will it overwtie windows -.- | 13:30 |
| Duesentrieb_ | if i want to upgrade ubunto using the alternate cd, what do i have to watch out for? does it prompt me for install vs. upgrade? | 13:30 |
| Pici | nintendo64: No, its just a different interface to the liveCD. | 13:30 |
| Duesentrieb_ | also, some have suggested that upgrading from cd is more stable than doing it over the web. why is that? | 13:30 |
| NixonInnes | nintendo: you can choose where to install it, you can choose a free partition if you want to dual boot windows | 13:30 |
| nintendo64 | ya I'm dual booting | 13:31 |
| nintendo64 | lol | 13:31 |
| Pici | Duesentrieb_: Put in the disk when Ubuntu is running, it will prompt you to add it to your repo list. | 13:31 |
| florian_ | I have a very weird bug with kmail and scim (stuff to input japanese / chinese) where is the correct place to ask about it before filling a bug? | 13:31 |
| Aw0L | how can I make sure the FQDN is set correctly? | 13:31 |
| Pici | Duesentrieb_: It was more stable when Gutsy was first released because the apt mirrors were getting hit so hard. | 13:31 |
| Duesentrieb_ | Pici: oh... nice :) can i also just mount the iso? will it notice? | 13:31 |
| Duesentrieb_ | ah, i see. i tried a week ago or so using the online installer, it crawled | 13:32 |
| Duesentrieb_ | is it better now? | 13:32 |
| nintendo64 | wich version should I get, 7.10 or 6.06 o.o | 13:32 |
| Duesentrieb_ | anyway, i have the iso now, might as well use it. but then, it'll probably update a lot of stuff again... | 13:32 |
| Pici | nintendo64: 7.10 is the latest version, you probably want that. | 13:32 |
| NixonInnes | nintendo: i'd say 7.10 | 13:32 |
| Sir-Integra | hey, i just installed the newest release of ubuntu, installed fine but my wireless isn't working, i currently don't have access to the wired system - is there anyway i can download the required packages to fix this? | 13:32 |
| Sir-Integra | i use broadcom network adapater. | 13:33 |
| Pici | Duesentrieb_: Exactly. We havent had that many updates, but its still one extra step. Also if you have broadband theres no reason not to use the online upgrade. | 13:33 |
| Duesentrieb_ | on an unrelated note: does anyone have experience with gutsy on an asus laptop? | 13:33 |
| zeroflag | is it just me or is the window list seriously bugged? | 13:33 |
| Duesentrieb_ | support in feisty was flacky, and the last feisty update actually broke a lot of acpi related things. | 13:33 |
| NixonInnes | sir-integra: make sure you have the drivers for your wireless card | 13:33 |
| nintendo64 | this is going to take a while to download -.- | 13:33 |
| Duesentrieb_ | so... can i hope for gutsy to be better? or should i prepare for worse? | 13:33 |
| Sir-Integra | NixonInnes i do, but they're in windows (which i'm currently on now) | 13:33 |
| nintendo64 | the download should be in a zip file or somehting so it downloads faster lol | 13:33 |
| Duesentrieb_ | Sir-Integra: ndiswrapper lets you use windows drivers for wlan cards under linux | 13:34 |
| Sir-Integra | I had this problem last time, was easy to fix with a few sudo apt-get but that's when i had access to a wired network. | 13:34 |
| Sir-Integra | i just downloaded the ndiswrapper package from sourceforge, going to burn it to a disk. | 13:34 |
| nintendo64 | can ubuntu run any nintendo 64 emulators? | 13:34 |
| Sir-Integra | i'm just wondering, what else would i need to make it work? | 13:34 |
| jrib | !ndiswrapper > Sir-Integra (read the private message from ubotu) | 13:34 |
| jrib | Sir-Integra: ndiswrapper is on the cd | 13:35 |
| nintendo64 | !emulators | 13:35 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about emulators - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 13:35 |
| BI0 | hello i'm new with linux .... what program can i use to compile programs with C script ? or c++ ? | 13:35 |
| Sir-Integra | when i tried to installl it, it wouldn't let me. | 13:35 |
| NixonInnes | sir-integra: tbh, i dont think my wireless card is working either | 13:35 |
| Duesentrieb_ | BI0: cpp | 13:35 |
| jrib | Sir-Integra: what did it say exactly | 13:35 |
| Duesentrieb_ | BI0: or, more realisically: make. | 13:35 |
| Sir-Integra | jrib, when i tried to install it, it said "no packages found" | 13:35 |
| BI0 | Duesentrieb_: and it will recognize the c or c++ code ? | 13:35 |
| === KennethP__ is now known as KennethP | ||
| Sir-Integra | when i tried to use the add/remove it said it needed access to the internet to continue | 13:36 |
| Duesentrieb_ | BI0: it's a c++ compiler | 13:36 |
| bida | hello | 13:36 |
| jrib | Sir-Integra: did you follo https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper ? | 13:36 |
| SpinBoson | BI0: Could use gcc also | 13:36 |
| BI0 | ok 10x | 13:36 |
| BI0 | and for java ? | 13:36 |
| stefg | !build > BIO | 13:36 |
| BI0 | the same ones ? | 13:36 |
| bida | what? | 13:36 |
| jdecoste | lol | 13:36 |
| nintendo64 | is 86.3 kb/s fast | 13:36 |
| SpinBoson | BI0: gcc can compile java, but it's easier to get the JDK and use that | 13:36 |
| jdecoste | can anyone explain me this ? | 13:36 |
| jdecoste | jdecoste@db-zeus:/opt/eclipse$ sudo ./eclipse | 13:36 |
| jdecoste | sudo: unable to execute ./eclipse: No such file or directory | 13:36 |
| NixonInnes | nintendo: no | 13:36 |
| Russian | hello everyone | 13:37 |
| Duesentrieb_ | BI0: actually i was telling bullshit - gcc is the compiler, cpp is the preprocessor. i guess you better listen to people who actually use this :) | 13:37 |
| gauteh | jdecoste: you're trying to execute the file ./eclipse in the current directory | 13:37 |
| * Duesentrieb_ just uses make. and writes stuff in java | 13:37 | |
| nintendo64 | I have high speed dsl but for some reason it's downloading the file at 85.6 kb/s | 13:37 |
| nintendo64 | -.- | 13:37 |
| jdecoste | gauteh: idd | 13:37 |
| gauteh | jdecoste: if you want to run eclipse as root you should do sudo eclipse (if it is in your path) | 13:37 |
| Duesentrieb_ | no one should want to run eclipse as root | 13:38 |
| jrib | jdecoste: why would you run eclipse as root? | 13:38 |
| Duesentrieb_ | it makes no sense | 13:38 |
| NixonInnes | nintendo: a lot of people are probably using the server | 13:38 |
| jdecoste | jrib: cause running it as a local user gives me this | 13:38 |
| jdecoste | jdecoste@db-zeus:/opt/eclipse$ ./eclipse | 13:38 |
| jdecoste | bash: ./eclipse: No such file or directory | 13:38 |
| gauteh | jdecoste: did you try just 'eclipse' ? | 13:38 |
| Sir-Integra | jrib: thanks, looking now. hopefully this will fix my problem. | 13:38 |
| Russian | I cannot mount my external HD, Cannot mount volume, what must I do? | 13:38 |
| jrib | jdecoste: still, not a good reason to run it as root. eclipse is in the repositories, did you install the package? | 13:38 |
| gauteh | jdecoste: that means that the files has a different name or that it hasn't been properly installed | 13:39 |
| jdecoste | yes jrib | 13:39 |
| jdecoste | hang one a sec | 13:39 |
| NixonInnes | I've got my LCD TV hooked up to my laptop, via VGA, but videos dont display. I think i need to switch to 16bit video, but I dont know how. Any help? | 13:40 |
| jdecoste | look at this | 13:41 |
| jdecoste | -rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 21K 2007-06-25 23:52 eclipse | 13:41 |
| jdecoste | don't mind the username nor the modes | 13:41 |
| nintendo64 | lol this is the channel with the most users on on the server | 13:41 |
| jrib | jdecoste: tell us the output of 'apt-cache policy eclipse | grep -i installed' | 13:41 |
| jdecoste | jrib: Installed: 3.2.2-3ubuntu3 | 13:42 |
| jdecoste | jrib: but the directory i'm in has this thing called eclipse-php | 13:42 |
| jrib | jdecoste: now, what happens when you simply run 'eclipse' as someone suggested? | 13:42 |
| jdecoste | it runs the regular eclipse | 13:43 |
| gotama | HI! I want to run a script in my home dir before X starts. Where should the script be placed? Inside the .config file? Help please. | 13:43 |

| Raph | how to resolv the gutsy 64 black splashscreen ? thanks | 13:44 |
| MasterShrek | gotama, you want to run it before x starts? as in before gdm? | 13:44 |
| Hex2 | my friend wants to install ubutnu onto her PC, but has no CD burner, but does have a 1 GB memory stick, how can we install without a CD Burner? | 13:45 |
| Duesentrieb_ | jdecoste: php support is a plugin/extension to eclipse. youshould install it like any other eclipse plugin. no need to have a separate installation. | 13:45 |
| jdecoste | ok | 13:45 |
| jdecoste | let me try | 13:45 |
| Duesentrieb_ | Hex2: burn on another pc | 13:45 |
| Hex2 | not possible, no CD burner in the house, and she lives about 120miles away | 13:45 |
| SpinBoson | Does she have an external HD? | 13:46 |
| Hex2 | no | 13:46 |
| Hex2 | :( | 13:46 |
| Duesentrieb_ | Hex2: if her BIOS supports booting from the sick, it might be possible (don't know the details of that). Otherwise, there's no way | 13:46 |
| jrib | !install > Hex2 (read the private message from ubotu) | 13:46 |
| Duesentrieb_ | (no idea how to fit a bootable iso on a stick though) | 13:46 |
| Hex2 | woot | 13:46 |
| pathiks | hey all | 13:46 |
| Hex2 | okay | 13:46 |
| Hex2 | thanks | 13:46 |
| gotama | Yes, before x starts I wish to delete two programs in my home dir. | 13:47 |
| SpinBoson | Duesentrieb_: Do memory sticks have boot sectors? | 13:47 |
| jrib | gotama: why? | 13:47 |
| Duesentrieb_ | SpinBoson: i suppose they can | 13:47 |
| NixonInnes | I've got my LCD TV hooked up to my laptop, via VGA, but videos dont display. I think i need to switch to 16bit video, but I dont know how. Any help? | 13:47 |
| jdecoste | btw jrib i had the same prob while installing zend | 13:47 |
| gotama | Sound problems in gusty. | 13:47 |
| MasterShrek | gotama, call the script from /etc/rc.local or just put the commands in there | 13:47 |

| jrib | jdecoste: "same problem", I don't use eclipse but does the plugin not install for some reason? | 13:48 |
| Hex2 | thanks Duesentrieb_ | 13:48 |
| jdecoste | jrib: let me explain to you in a way you understand | 13:48 |
| gotama | This is a problem only in my home dir. | 13:48 |
| Russian | Guys, how to mount External HD? | 13:49 |
| MasterShrek | Raph, your question is quite vague, my gutsy 64 doenst have any splash problems | 13:49 |
| jrib | Russian: usually you just plug it in | 13:49 |
| jdecoste | what if try running against a wall but the wall isn't there anymore but the world still thinks it's there ? | 13:49 |
| Russian | jrib: I know, but I get an error | 13:49 |
| SpinBoson | Duesentrieb_, Hex2: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=install+ubuntu+from+usb+stick&btnG=Search | 13:49 |
| jrib | jdecoste: that really doesn't make it clearer, why don't you say how you are trying to install the plugin exactly and how it is not working? | 13:49 |
| dgjones | Russian, what format is the external drive and what error message do you get | 13:49 |
| jdecoste | jrib: let me put it this way | 13:50 |
| Raph | MasterShrek: all along the boot my screen is black between grub screen and gdm !! | 13:50 |
| Hex2 | Basic essentials: | 13:50 |
| Hex2 | * 1GB or larger USB flash drive | 13:50 |
| Hex2 | * Ubuntu 6.10 ISO | 13:50 |
| Hex2 | * CD Burner/Recorder | 13:50 |
| Hex2 | * 7-zip (or another ISO extracting tool) | 13:50 |

| geirha | Hex2: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick?highlight=%28usb%29 | 13:51 |
| jrib | jdecoste: so your php plugin proble is solved now? correct? | 13:51 |
| Raph | MasterShrek: any suggestions ? | 13:51 |
| jdecoste | no jrib | 13:51 |
| jdecoste | it's the same prob | 13:52 |
| jdecoste | it moans about file that don't exist | 13:52 |
| jdecoste | but they do exist | 13:52 |
| Hex2 | what if she is in windows.. | 13:52 |
| jrib | jdecoste: try to keep what you say on a single line, or else the channel becomes too busy | 13:52 |
| MasterShrek | Raph, not really, try sudo dpkg-reconfigure usplash maybe, but i dont really know | 13:52 |
| * MasterShrek brb | 13:52 | |
| jrib | jdecoste: you've been asked to install the php plugin for eclipse, do that and tell us if it works. Then move on to the zend studio issue | 13:52 |
| Duesentrieb_ | Hex2: the burner is only needed for an initial boot into linux, it seems - so you have all the tools. it has a "Using Windows to prepare and move the files to the USB Stick" section. i suppose it doesn't require you to burn anything, but you need to get to the contents of the iso somehow. mounting the iso will do, i guess. | 13:53 |
| jdecoste | ok | 13:53 |
| Duesentrieb_ | Hex2: there are lots of windows programs for mounting isos | 13:53 |
| Hex2 | daemon tools :D | 13:53 |
| jdecoste | jrib: then explain me why i had no probs in feisty with the same file ? | 13:53 |
| jrib | jdecoste: I have no idea | 13:53 |
| === SmileY_ is now known as Xsylotte | ||
| Hex2 | okay, thankyou | 13:53 |
| hansen | any idea why the gcc/gfortran packages are so messed up in gutsy? Install "g77" and you get gcc-3.4+g77-3.4, install "gfortran" and you get gcc-4.2+gfortran-4.2. The default gcc is 4.1.3, ie. none of the ones you get with the fortran packages | 13:53 |
| jdecoste | idd | 13:54 |
| jdecoste | that's what's i'm worried about | 13:54 |
| Russia1 | jrib: ? | 13:54 |
| hansen | to get a fortran compiler that matches the default gcc, you explicitly have to install gfortran-4.1 (which oddly enough gives you a g77 binary and not a gfortran) | 13:54 |
| jdecoste | oh well | 13:55 |

| YamiTenshi | hey, I have a problem: I've recently upgraded to Gutsy, and now I can't choose any screen resolution higher than 800x600. I've checked xrog.conf, and used dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg to inculde higher resolutions, but it still doesn't work. anybody here have any idea what I could do? =\ | 15:32 |
| soundray | thompsbm: okay, you configure that through System-Preferences-Remote Desktop | 15:32 |
| kl4m | BI0: sudo apt-get install build-esential | 15:32 |
| sandaru1 | BIO: sudo apt-get install build-essential | 15:32 |
| kl4m | oops yeah ^ | 15:32 |
| thompsbm | soundray...ok so i got vnc installed and i use a viewer to get to it..but all i get is a grey screen..and it never shows up | 15:32 |
| limen | Anyone knows how to get WPA2 to work in gutsy? Have looked around the net but haven't found anything concrete | 15:33 |
| AlexZavalny | hairulfr video is overlayed. i cant take a screenshot of it, etc | 15:33 |
| thompsbm | im trying to get into it remotely and then set it up... | 15:33 |
| soundray | thompsbm: System-Preferences-Remote Desktop ! | 15:33 |
| sandaru1 | YamiTenshi: paste your xorg.conf file to pastebin | 15:33 |
| thompsbm | soundray: any ideas on why im just getting grey screen of pixels with just X in it when i use vncviewer | 15:33 |
| sacamano | is there a mem leak in the new NetworkManager? Because if i leave it hangin around for a while, it starts consuming 80%+ of my CPU on idle | 15:34 |
| AlexZavalny | i cant see video in cube!!! HELP | 15:34 |
| thompsbm | soundray: anyway to configure this with just ssh access | 15:35 |
| kl4m | I tried to use graveman on a not-so-fast X-forwarded ssh. Bad idea | 15:35 |
| YamiTenshi | sandaru1: http://pastebin.com/d7f0919c3 | 15:35 |
| soundray | thompsbm: because VNC starts a separate server which doesn't run any useful programs until you configure it. Kill your vnc server, setup Remote Desktop and try the vncviewer command again. | 15:35 |
| sandaru1 | thompsbm: try running startx with the VNC display id | 15:36 |
| thompsbm | soundray: i understand that but at this time i only have ssh access to the box... | 15:36 |
| thompsbm | im in a remote location trying to set this up.. | 15:36 |
| soundray | thompsbm: if you can do ssh -X to the box, you can call vino-preferences to get the dialog. | 15:37 |
| chriswaterguy | popey: (here's one for you if you're still around - re your screencast.) | 15:37 |
| thompsbm | soundray: can i do this with putty | 15:37 |
| chriswaterguy | Hi - I'm having trouble working this out, re partitioning during setup. How important is the order of the partitions? Must be boot, swap, then home? I notice that in the screencast I'm watching, each partition has "location" as "beginning" and each is primary rather than logical. (I thought home would be logical.) | 15:38 |
| soundray | thompsbm: no, if you're on Windows, you'd have to install an X server on it. | 15:38 |
| dgjones | chriswaterguy, i don't think it matters which order you have the partitions and you can have them either as primary or logical | 15:38 |
| soundray | thompsbm: ah hold on... | 15:38 |
| drgeb | I keep gettiong this when installing afinity: "E: Couldn't find package affinity" I did add to sources.list deb http://download.tuxfamily.org/syzygy42 gutsy avant-window-navigator | 15:38 |

| soundray | thompsbm: do you still have your vncserver running? | 15:39 |
| thompsbm | soundray: yes | 15:39 |
| chriswaterguy | dgjones: I assume boot must be primary, but didn't know if there was an advantage to home being one or the other... seems not I guess. Thanks | 15:39 |

| sacamano | got another question, i did a fresh install of Gutsy, but the load up is completely blank, does anyone have any idea why this is? | 15:40 |
| soundray | thompsbm: in your putty session, do an 'export DISPLAY=:1' and run xlogo to see if it shows up in your viewer. | 15:40 |
| dgjones | chriswaterguy, i've not found that it made any difference whether /boot is primary or not, when i've been trying different distro's, i've had /boot on logical partitions | 15:40 |
| chriswaterguy | dgjones: ah, maybe it's a windows thing. Thanks. | 15:41 |
| Pici | drgeb: I dont know, sorry. | 15:41 |
| kEEGAn | hi my display has crashed . how do i change my display setting from the command line | 15:41 |
| blizzkid | sacamano, you mean just a black screen? | 15:41 |
| sacamano | blizzkid yeah, it's just blank, the load time is also longer than in feisty | 15:41 |
| thompsbm | export DISPLAY=:1 then did xlogo and it said Error: Can't open display :1 | 15:42 |
| YamiTenshi | sandaru1: didn't work, 800x600 is still the highest resolution I can use =\ | 15:42 |
| blizzkid | sacamano, I had the same issue. I changed /etc/usplash.conf to 640x480 and added VGA=0 to defoptions in /boot/grub/menu.lst that solved my issue | 15:43 |

| sandaru1 | YamiTenshi: seems like you changed it manually, isn't it? | 15:44 |
| sacamano | blizzkid, how do you add the VGA=0 in grub? does it matter where i put it in the file? | 15:44 |
| drgeb | Pici I followed this doc http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=385981&highlight=affinity strange that its not there | 15:44 |
| thompsbm | it would be nice to know how to set remote desktop preferences from command line | 15:44 |
| YamiTenshi | sandaru1: yeah, except the driver "nvidia" line, which I changed myself, since I set "nv" as the driver with dpkg-reconfigure, and it seemed a bit excessive to run the entire process again just for a different driver | 15:44 |

| Laser87 | Hi! | 16:17 |
| dramedo | because i think that if the boot partition stays on the SCSI drive, the boot cannot access to that | 16:17 |

| thompsbm | soundray: how would i do that without physical access | 16:18 |

| dramedo | hairulfr: can try with that, thanks | 16:19 |

When I browsed the application the check box for tthe splash screen was already checked so I changed the resolution to 1024x768 from 800x600. I then rebooted and cannot reach the login screen now, it just sits at a black screen after say | 16:44 |
| jeffrey | ing Starting GDM. | 16:44 |
| DanaG | What's up with that? Is it supposed to be a feature? | 16:44 |
| profanephobia | Badger, are you sure your booting to the live cd and not your own system ... whats asking you for a username and password cause the livecd doent have a login screen | 16:44 |
| Badger | I don't have ubuntu. | 16:45 |
| Badger | It's definitely the CD. | 16:45 |
| BI0 | how can i install cube desktop for ubuntu 7.10 ? or what is the direct command for installing this feature ? | 16:45 |
| Badger | And it wants a username and password. | 16:45 |
| profanephobia | Badger, so when you start the system with the livecd it goes to a login screen? | 16:45 |
| achadwick | In_Silico: uncertain what you mean... did you change what gets launched in Terminal (and: Kubuntu/Ubuntu/Xubuntu?) | 16:45 |
| Badger | Yep. | 16:45 |
| b1f30_w0rk | why - why do you have to restart ubuntu? that should never have to happen with a linux box | 16:45 |
| In_Silico | achadwick, no, I just installed NVIDIA-GLX and setup the Restricted Device Manager to use the right features on the card | 16:46 |

| Dr_Willis | Moduliz0r thers a "System rescue Live CD" or 2 out - that have a lot of tools for that stuff.. But they are proverly command line, and ive never used them. so it may take some research | 16:46 |

| b1f30_w0rk | Laser87: that's the kernel dude - i'm talking about basic desktop stuff - gnome/nautilus didn't remember my settings, my desktop, my wallpaper, my window sizes, gdm has bailed at least twice - what gives? | 16:47 |
| DanaG | I had to use ctrl-alt-backspace to recover. | 16:47 |
| aimtrainer | HI! I've just deleted a hell of a lot data in a truecrypt volume by accident. How do I recover it?? Please help me! I've googled a bit but I'm scared to do somethin wrong... | 16:47 |

| DanaG | "turn on the wifi" is a rather vague question. | 16:48 |
| Moduliz0r | yay 21KB/s!!! | 16:48 |
| Moduliz0r | :> | 16:48 |
| profanephobia | Badger, well maybe you should try the alternative install cd | 16:48 |
| achadwick | and then search for the package :) | 16:48 |
| Badger | Yeah >_> | 16:48 |
| Moduliz0r | :<* stupid US keyboard layout | 16:48 |
| Badger | Another couple hours download for me! | 16:48 |
| In_Silico | wels, what version of 'buntu are you using, and what wifi do you have? how does it connect to your computer? internal? pcmcia? usb? | 16:48 |
| Badger | Damn them all. | 16:48 |
| BI0 | achadwick: i'm in add/remove now what's the second step ? | 16:48 |
| wels | DanaG I mean, its installed.. it was working fine.. But now the light is off | 16:48 |
| vmlinuz` | in VLC, i right click then check "Always on top" but its never always on top. whats the problem? Anybody have the same problem as me? | 16:48 |

| Borzo | hello | 16:49 |
| Laser87 | b1f30_w0rk: Strange - never had this. Have you moved/deleted your /home? | 16:49 |
| Badger | profanephobia, aha, now you've said it... How so? | 16:49 |
| In_Silico | achadwick, do you think my nvidia-settings program could have caused problems in updating my xorg.conf file? | 16:49 |
| Badger | I mean... | 16:49 |
| Badger | Apart from the better speed and performance stuff | 16:49 |
| Badger | Windows has better apps :/ | 16:49 |
| achadwick | BI0: type compizconfig in the box, and change the dropdown to "all open source ...". Check the box to say you want it installed. Click Apply Chnages. | 16:49 |
| vmlinuz` | can someobdy who's using Gnome, check for me if he can make VLC "Always on top" | 16:50 |
| wels | vmlinuz`: I have that same problem | 16:50 |
| achadwick | In_Silico: how could this have messed up your Terminal application (command line)? | 16:50 |
| vmlinuz` | wels: hmm, so its a bug - I knew it. | 16:50 |
| profanephobia | Badger, well its all opinions but ubuntu seems to be the most user friendly linux distro that focuses not only on the IT pro but also the everyday desktop user | 16:50 |
| In_Silico | I don't know, I'm a linux nub, that's the only thing I changed though | 16:50 |
| jeffrey | I need help, my problem orignally was that I had no splash screen during bootup. I came in here and someone told me to install startup-manager mess around with the settings, which I did.

| vmlinuz` | any ubuntu creaters here? There is a bug in VLC. can't be always on top. | 16:50 |
| In_Silico | sorry, linux veteran, ubuntu nub | 16:50 |
| Moduliz0r | Badger: Does that mean you've read and tried ALL the apps in Synaptic, as well as the ones not in the repositories? | 16:50 |
| wels | vmlinuz`: My friend who uses RHEL doesn't have that problem. | 16:51 |
| vmlinuz` | RHEL? | 16:51 |
| profanephobia | Badger, and for pretty much every windows app there is a linux version or the capability to run that app with wine | 16:51 |
| vmlinuz` | wels: whats that. I use VLC | 16:51 |
| Badger | Moduliz0r, hehe, now we're talking. | 16:51 |
| Borzo | I'm having a serious problem with wireless after upgrading to gutsy :( would appreciate some help in finding where the problem may be | 16:51 |
| achadwick | Hmm. Shouldn't mess it up. Can you log in on the regular TTYs, In_Silico? | 16:51 |
| DanaG | Hmm, there are a few things that could be causing broken wireless: | 16:51 |
| wels | vmlinuz`: I mean, Red Hat, another distro | 16:51 |
| In_Silico | yes, F1-F6 | 16:51 |
| DanaG | Driver issues, BIOS issues, or just a userspace "rfkill". | 16:51 |
| vmlinuz` | wels: ah yeah, its ubuntu problem | 16:51 |
| vmlinuz` | ubuntu bug | 16:51 |
| Badger | profanephobia, I believe there are a number of things that don't work... But that's besides the point... I'm outta here. Goodbye. | 16:51 |
| vmlinuz` | probably the version of VLC they use. i might upgrade from the site. getting a repo or something | 16:51 |
| jjore-w | I'm trying to find a list repository mirrors. My new install defaults to us.archive.ubuntu.com but I assume there's something closer to me. | 16:52 |
| dgjones | vmlinuz`, sounds like you should report it as a bug via launchpad | 16:52 |
| In_Silico | I even downloaded and am using Konsole now, but when I try to launch plain-ol terminal, it says "Starting Terminal..." and never loads - just closes again. | 16:52 |
| wels | vmlinuz`: I've tried it from the vlc website, and still had the same problem. | 16:52 |
| speps | hi guys!can i set cpu freq to a freq minor of the minimum allowed? | 16:52 |
| beaver33 | i am trying to compile something in ubuntu , and it can't find the libraries( for example pcctscfg.h) . i have the libraries but in another directory not the one i am using to compile.how do i make the compiler search also the directory i have the libraries ? i tried adding to PATH the directory where the libraries are but it didn't work | 16:52 |
| beaver33 | please anyone ? | 16:52 |
| jjore-w | beaver33: you're better off in #gcc. | 16:52 |
| DanaG | Oh yeah, and why can't Azureus seem to write to my ntfs-3g volume? | 16:52 |
| vmlinuz` | dgjones: I don't know how to report, can you do it ? Check your VLC if it can be on top. if it cant then its a ubuntu gutsy bug. report it please if you can | 16:53 |
| beaver33 | ok thanks bro | 16:53 |
| achadwick | In_Silico: try gnome-terminal in Konsole, and look at your (hah!) konsole output. | 16:53 |
| vmlinuz` | wels: So its a VLC problem? | 16:53 |

| achadwick | you may be able to, if you can find the .deb for gnome-terminal in /var/cache/apt/archives... | 16:56 |
| jjore-w | Well actually, TCT works on many volume formats. Just get truecrypt to get you plain access to your volume and you can go to town from there. | 16:56 |
| wels | I restarted several times and its not working | 16:56 |
| kakoonia | wels: you dont have a switch key for wifi | 16:56 |

| hdoria | how can i add a generic text only printer to ubuntu/ | 17:01 |
| achadwick | In_Silico: I'd log out, restart X with Ctrl-Alt-Backspace, if you haven't already. Maybe reboot. Could be an established g-t daemon assuming the Wrong Thing now you've played with your nvidia settings. | 17:01 |
| kakoonia | wels: im trying to find some wireless card config.. | 17:01 |
| hdoria | i cant print from another linux machine to a linux printer in ubuntu. whats wrong? | 17:01 |
| profanephobia | pejo_, you may also need to forward the port in your router | 17:02 |
| jjore-w | aimtrainer: well then you're in luck. Go mount your thing and use one of the many, many FAT unerasing programs. | 17:02 |
| wels | kakoonia, I was using WiFi today morning... then for a few hours I used a wired network... after that, WiFi stopped working | 17:02 |
| achadwick | You may also be able to find and kill any existing g-t sessions. | 17:02 |
| gordonjcp | hdoria: the printer has no paper in it | 17:02 |
| jjore-w | aimtrainer: The Coroner's Toolkit also works too. | 17:02 |
| In_Silico | did restart x, rebooted the whole machine...what is a g-t daemon? | 17:02 |
| In_Silico | oh, durr, gnome-terminal | 17:02 |
| achadwick | IIRC it launches once, and fresh terminals instances tell it to make new terminals Factory. That's the term. | 17:03 |
| In_Silico | I'll run ps and see if there's anything to kill... | 17:03 |
| hdoria | gordonjcp, oO ... i dont this deserve a reply, but the printer is ok. ubuntu can print using it. but other linux machines cant print using this printer | 17:03 |

| VicMcLargeHuge | anyone know if ubuntu will read Mac System 6 filesytem? | 17:03 |

| achadwick | stepz_: It *might*be able to use your old .VMDK images. At least, I've seen them in the virtualbox GUI. | 17:14 |
| achadwick | (as a possible disk image type) | 17:14 |
| CochiseIRL | yup virtual will load vmware disk images | 17:14 |

| niner | possibly silly question. what's the "proper" way to change a hostname under ubuntu. (I'm from a solaris background.) | 17:15 |

| sven_ | Hi there, Im writing a script for a user, and I want that every time that the script is executed, I receive a notification by mail.. I tried the mail command, but it keeps running in interactive mode. Tried man pages, nothing clear there.. How can I send an automated mail message, without having to type the mail message? | 17:19 |
| achadwick | stones: use ext3 or reiserfs or xfs for any Linux system disks, and keep your old NTFS drives untouched. Reading from them should be fine speed-wise. Is writing to ntfs volumes safe these days? | 17:19 |
| jimjam | achadwick: I have absolutely no problem doing it. | 17:20 |
| In_Silico | i'm baaaack... | 17:20 |
| jimjam | achadwick: Gutsy definitely has it covered. | 17:20 |
| Niteye | last time i wrote to NTFS drives with linux it said the driver is fine for reading but 'experimental' for writing, though everything worked fine (i think that was a few years ago) | 17:20 |
| In_Silico | anyone know the name of beryl for APT-GET? | 17:20 |
| achadwick | sven_: run it on a pipeline thus: echo "hello" | mail -s 'hello, user' a@b.c | 17:20 |
| ZarathustraDK | My wireless card shows up in lspci and lshw, but not in iwconfig or network manager. It looks more or less like the whole card is "off" somehow. Any ideas on how to get it on? please please with sugar on top | 17:20 |
| stones | Well i am using my linux box as a fileserver. I do alot of read writes and just yesterday my truecrypt drive went corrupt. That is the only reason i ask. I have notices that the download speed is slow on copying things from samba as well but that could just be a wireless issue. | 17:21 |
| wels | salty, it says wlan0... I can ping the router, and I can ping the other system on my local network.. but I can't access the net, or even access the router's web interface | 17:21 |
| In_Silico | achadwick, what was the name of that cube desktop you recommended to the guy earlier? | 17:21 |
| wels | and the wifi light is off | 17:21 |
| underwatercow | For some reason when I try to restore backuped files using sbackup, and even file roller, they will extract to a tmp folder, but then sometimes not complete the rename/extraction and just leave everything in the tmp folder. Has anyone else had this problem? | 17:22 |
| achadwick | ccsm | 17:22 |
| jimjam | stones: IF you're going to do a lot of r/w, then I would convert the fs | 17:22 |
| lonran | hi everybody | 17:22 |
| stones | I was only wondering if because i am using linux that it would be better to convert all my HD to etc3 | 17:22 |
| achadwick | (or compizconfig in a package search). | 17:22 |
| In_Silico | is APT going to find either? | 17:22 |
| lonran | how can i move the ext3 partition if have to unmount when using gparted? | 17:22 |
| salty | wels , are ya sure there is access to the net? | 17:22 |
| * ZarathustraDK looks around with piyiful Bambi-eyes | 17:22 | |
| stones | should i convert to etc3 or reiserfs. I have heard that reiserfs is unstable | 17:22 |
| jimjam | stones: It is a lot safer to use a native filesystem, especially when you are changing data a lot | 17:23 |
| henr1 | Hello, I'm using evolution 2.12 and I would like to know how to activate the tray icon for evolution, any idea ? | 17:23 |

| godzirra | Gosh durnit. My laptop keys won't work in ubuntu again. they didn't work before, and i fixed it by installing some kde packages (I didnt actually DO anything with the packages, I just intsalled them) and now with the most recent software updates, ubuntu broke them again. ARGH. Anyone have suggestions how to fix laptop keyboard short cut keys? | 17:24 |
| mikedep333 | hey, what's the command to (re)mount everything in fstab? | 17:24 |
| thedefender | how do i use bin files to install programs | 17:24 |
| jimjam | stones: first off, it's ext3 :P | 17:24 |
| Whitor | what software can I use to make a video of my desktop? | 17:24 |
| Alyxander | hey guys how do i switch to the command line only fron the gui? | 17:24 |
| mikedep333 | thedefender, do you know how to use the command line? | 17:24 |
| jimjam | stones: Second, as a server, I'd recommend reiser | 17:24 |
| salty | have ya tried opening "http://192.168.1.1" in firefox? | 17:24 |
| sven_ | achadwick, thanks for the idea! | 17:24 |
| kst- | godzirra use xev to see if the keys still work | 17:24 |
| jimjam | stones: much faster for small files | 17:24 |

| underwatercow | Alyxander: Ctrl + Alt + F7 | 17:25 |
| gangerli | hi | 17:25 |
| stones | well the papers that i was ready have been from the past few years. Sorry jimjam!! Well that is the thing i don't really deal in small files. The usual transfer is 600 or so and then there is alot of streaming. | 17:25 |
| gangerli | how can I fuse and mdf file that was split into two? | 17:25 |
| thedefender | mikedep333:yes, if you mean executing commands yes | 17:25 |
| stones | I am assuming that i can using reiserfs for samba without any problems | 17:25 |
| jimjam | stones: Then I'd use ext3. it's ubuntu's default | 17:25 |
| Rogi | scguy318: hey man you around | 17:26 |
| jimjam | stones: I know nothing about samba... | 17:26 |
| godzirra | kst-: they work. They pop up the audio icon... They just don't adjust the audio anymore. No muting, volume up or volume down. | 17:26 |
| jimjam | stones: sorry | 17:26 |
| mikedep333 | the defender, actually, I think that isn't necessary, right click on the .bin, properties, permissions, make it executable | 17:26 |
| In_Silico | achadwick, where am I going to find either of those? Can't find compiz or ccsd... | 17:26 |
| mikedep333 | then when you double click it I think you'll have an option to run in terminal, do that | 17:26 |
| gangerli | I've got three files: abc.i00 abc.i01 abc.mds | 17:26 |
| kst- | godzirra sure you dont have to just remapp them/set the binds again? | 17:26 |
| godzirra | kst-: I had this problem when I first installed ubuntu. I read somewhere that installing some kde apps fixed it for a bunch of people, so I installed konqueror and katapult, plus all the dependencies and it worked again. | 17:26 |
| godzirra | kst-: Nope... checked that too. | 17:27 |
| In_Silico | sorry, ccsm | 17:27 |
| boti | what the hell? Firefox is just horrible lately on Ubuntu 7.10..freezes up all the time | 17:27 |
| godzirra | kst-: After updating the packages today (whatever updated between today and yesterday) they stopped working again. | 17:27 |
| stones | thats fine thanks for the information. I would rather switch to ext3 now than find out latter that all my hd have become corrupt | 17:27 |
| underwatercow | stones: samba works fine on reiserfs, same as anything else ;-D | 17:27 |
| kst- | hmm dunno, my notebook keys all work | 17:27 |
| achadwick | gangerli: you can type cat abc.i00 abc.i01 abc.mds > abc.mdf in a terminal, and it *might* work (if it's a straight split) | 17:27 |
| zgmf-x20a | hey have a question abt VLC and ubuntu. when taking a snap shot, where are the images saved?????? | 17:27 |
| thedefender | mikedep333: should i execute the bin via command line | 17:27 |
| superpigs | what is the best app to burn cdr and dvdr? | 17:27 |
| gangerli | achadwick: it's supposedly split to cicumvent the FAT32 limitation | 17:27 |
| mikedep333 | thedefender, you can | 17:27 |
| === HELLO_THERE is now known as wels_ | ||
| jimjam | underwatercow: thanks :) | 17:27 |
| gangerli | does that help? | 17:27 |
| mikedep333 | or I think double clicking gives you that option | 17:28 |
| mikedep333 | either way, you need to make give it the executable permission | 17:28 |
| achadwick | !repos >In_Silico | 17:28 |
| mikedep333 | through the menus in nautilus (by right clicking on it) | 17:28 |
| godzirra | kst-: Yeah, it really sucks. Is there a way to see what was installed this morning when I did my software update? | 17:28 |
| mikedep333 | or from the command line with "chmod +x filename.bin" | 17:28 |
| achadwick | gangerli: give it a try, and then see if the .mdf file that gets generated works in your app. Quite a few file formats with that extension http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.mdf | 17:30 |
| Niteye | is there a remote-desktop feature in ubuntu? i know about VNC but VNC also leaves the computer locally accessible (which i dont want) and VNC is very slow and inefficient | 17:30 |
| mikedep333 | thedefender: gotta go, sorry | 17:30 |
| gnurph69 | okay - I'm running KDE (originally installed kubuntu) but I've had enough of it. How can I install the gnome desktop from apt-get? the stupid KDE "Add/Remove Programs" doesn't even give an option to install the gnome desktop stuff. | 17:30 |
| thedefender | thanks for help | 17:30 |
| gangerli | it's a DVD image | 17:30 |
| superpigs | gnurph69 sudo apt-get install gnome | 17:30 |
| superpigs | gnurph69 or try gnomedesktop | 17:30 |
| x_zeuss | hello ubuntu users | 17:30 |

| x_zeuss | one quick question pls | 17:31 |
| superpigs | gnurph69 but might i advise you to look into the xfce desktop before you do gnome? | 17:31 |
| x_zeuss | did anyone ever solved the initramfs problem? | 17:31 |
| godzirra | Is there a way to see what was installed this morning when I did my software update? There's got to be a log somewhere for synaptic, I hope? | 17:31 |
| Lawke | hi, is there any other download program for mp3 besides limewire? | 17:31 |

| gnurph69 | superpigs: xfce? why? isn't that a remote control system? | 17:32 |

| gnurph69 | superpigs: ah, you mean a totally different desktop. | 17:32 |
| superpigs | gnurph69 xfce is a lightwight GUI that looks both better and works better then gnome and kde. just a tip. look at their url before you do gnome. | 17:32 |

| superpigs | gnurph69 http://www.xfce.org/ check it out. i think you can add some stuff in the repository list and do the sudo apt get | 17:33 |
| achadwick | Good luck. If you can run a checksum on it, or if mdf2iso does that, you should be able to tell whether the re-stitch has worked. | 17:33 |

| godzirra | kst-: the only thing that looks like it could possibly have broken it is the compiz update. | 17:34 |
| kst- | mm maybe compiz has overtaken some key bindings controls godzirra | 17:34 |
| gangerli | achadwick: interesting! it reassembled it, but it's not mdf per se since it's Iso9660. if I change the extension, package manager opens it. | 17:34 |
| achadwick | ... unusual! :/ | 17:35 |
| gangerli | let's see if GnomeBaker burns it or not. | 17:35 |
| _Alyxander | ok full question i switch to full screen cl with ctrl+alt+f2 how do i switch back to the gui? start x does not work it tells me its acttive on display 0 | 17:35 |

| superpigs | gnurph69 sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop | 17:36 |
| _Alyxander | any other suggestions? | 17:36 |
| LinuxNIT | any ideas why my network manager applet wont refresh after resuming from hibernation? | 17:36 |

| zgmf-x20a | hey have a question abt VLC and ubuntu. when taking a snap shot, where are the images saved?????? | 17:36 |
| godzirra | according to the preferences, sound up and down is set right. | 17:36 |
| jotilmove | Alyxander: corry alt+ctrl+f9 | 17:36 |
| godzirra | and pushing the buttons just pops up the sound icon but doesnt actually change the volume. | 17:37 |
| gnurph69 | superpigs: ah, this is the default desktop for xubuntu. | 17:37 |
| jotilmove | sorry* | 17:37 |
| kst- | godzirra i dont really know either... i'm a rather new user :( | 17:37 |
| superpigs | gnurph69 indeed | 17:37 |
| _Alyxander | yay it works thanks ctrl+alt+f7 worked | 17:37 |
| gangerli | mesmerizing. it's working like a charm... gotta make a note of this paraphenomena. | 17:37 |
| superpigs | gnurph69 kubuntu = kde, ubuntu = gnom, xubuntu = xfce | 17:37 |
| gnurph69 | superpigs: well, the gnome install is...installing. I'll pull the trigger on xfce when it's done and take a look. | 17:37 |
| _Alyxander | and ctrl+alt+f9 doesnt work | 17:37 |
| superpigs | gnurph69 sure thing | 17:38 |
| superpigs | gnurph69 once you get bored of thouse check out blackbox and fluxbox | 17:38 |

| superpigs | gnurph69 i know. its like windows. you are like me. you want it sleek, usefull and looking good. you will probably end up using xfce. | 17:41 |
| gangerli | achadwick: what is this "cat" command you suggested? | 17:41 |
| kst- | _Alyxander the ctrl-alt-f1 to -f12 shortcuts make you change through the various text consoles (1-6) and gui versions (7, 8-12 if set up) of your linux | 17:41 |

| yrlnry | I find that a very large amount of space on my root partition is being used by /var/cache/apt/archives. Does it make sense to try to delete some of this? If so, is there an apt-* tool that does the cleanup? | 17:55 |
| MasterShrek | yrlnry, apt-get clean | 17:55 |
| yrlnry | Thanks! | 17:55 |
| deunan | Odd-rationale: Gee! Now I can play with ubotu without bothering everyone.. Thanks again! | 17:56 |

| mzanfardino | MasterShrek: I have and the errors I get are all the same: None can seem to read the feature title set | 18:04 |
| tom__ | What would have happened to xorg at this point???? | 18:05 |
| soundray | Freakingme: see if your $HOME/.kde folder or subfolders are owned by root | 18:05 |
| stefg | tom__: so you don't evn get a bootsplash/ console output ? | 18:05 |
| tom__ | nope | 18:05 |
| tom__ | nothing.. when I go to recovery console, I can get to the prompt | 18:05 |

| kane77 | MasterShrek, yep today was a good day.. ubuntu arrived and I got new usb flash disk :) | 18:06 |
| stefg | tom__: then it is not xorg related. My guess is that it's an 'out of sync-range' problem. That's a CRT, not TFT, right? | 18:06 |
| MasterShrek | mzanfardino, strange...try: sudo dpkg-reconfigure k9copy then try again | 18:06 |

| seivan | soundray, done, still doesn't work. | 18:24 |
| scorp123 | ZarathustraDK: why would you want to do that? | 18:24 |
| balzac | my intel wireless driver is a restricted driver and it auto-installed | 18:24 |

| Blahmon3000 | how do i install mysql??? | 18:25 |
| ZarathustraDK | scorp123, because the kill switch is keeping me from using my wireless card? | 18:25 |
| IndyGunFreak | !mysql | 18:25 |
| 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+) | 18:25 |
| ZarathustraDK | or at least that's what I've come to conclude | 18:25 |
| scorp123 | ZarathustraDK: you mean your wireless comes up "off" per default? | 18:25 |
| soundray | seivan: be specific about the problem, and put the question to the channel (I'm logging off soon) | 18:26 |
| OldPink | Pici: Interestng | 18:26 |
| balzac | is there an Ubuntu channel which is specifically for drivers and hardware? | 18:26 |
| scorp123 | ZarathustraDK: my laptop too has a kill switch but it works tip top ..... | 18:26 |
| ZarathustraDK | yeah, the modules are loaded and everything it's just "not there" | 18:26 |
| deunan | Blahmon3000: sudo apt-get mysql-server mysql-client | 18:26 |
| seivan | soundray, okay =) sorry | 18:26 |
| deunan | Blahmon3000: sudo apt-get install mysql-server mysql-client | 18:26 |
| soundray | seivan: no worries | 18:26 |
| scorp123 | ZarathustraDK: sure it's the kill switch? Some Intel WiFi's also need the right firmware | 18:26 |
| OldPink | Pici: Don't really fancy another 1000Mb+ download on this connection, what would I need to keep in order to get my system back to current state if doing a fresh install? Just /home ? | 18:26 |
| gnuskool | Blahmon3000: wasnt mysql installed with htat command i gave you? | 18:27 |
| seivan | Excuse me, I got a zepto laptop with a realtek chipset (inter motherboard), sound doesn't work at all | 18:27 |
| ZarathustraDK | scorp123, yeah pretty sure, dmesg says so | 18:27 |
| stefg | jaym: try adding nohz=off as boot-parameter | 18:27 |
| scorp123 | ZarathustraDK: ah bummer .... | 18:27 |
| Pici | OldPink: Home hold all your documents and settings specific to your user. | 18:27 |
| scorp123 | ZarathustraDK: but wait .... I once read that it would be the same message too if the firmware didn't load properly. | 18:27 |
| ZarathustraDK | trouble is, everyone says it's Fn+F2, however that's the sleepbutton for my laptop | 18:27 |
| Pici | OldPink: If you have a website, you may want to grab that too out of whereever you have it. Some people suggest taking /etc too, but I think it creates comptiblity problems. | 18:28 |

| ZarathustraDK | scorp123, hmm well lsmod | grep ipw says they're loaded | 18:28 |
| OldPink | Pici: Thanks. No way to take across current programs, I guess? I know I can get a list of the current install applications and apt-get them, but that's more downloading... | 18:29 |

| jeremybell | My HP Laptop, dv65xx series, is not playing sound on 7.10. I've done the entire sound troubleshooting checklist, and the module is loaded, alsamixer sees it and isn't muting, but the sound simply won't play. The mute button on the keyboard is orange (for muted) but the software mute says it is on. Anyone have any ideas? | 18:33 |
| snkmad | ok | 18:33 |
| ZarathustraDK | balzac, albech and scorp123, it seems to be the kill switch that is blocking the card at least to me. BIOS is almost a joke on my end, you can choose between wifi disabled and 'last state' (which is disabled) | 18:34 |
| jeremybell | it shows up in alsamixer as "HDA Intel", Chip: "Realtek ID 268" | 18:34 |
| albech | jeremybell: make sure its not muted on the keyboard and then enable it in the alsa mixer afterwards | 18:34 |
| ubuntu | oi | 18:34 |
| === mneagul is now known as neagulm | ||
| Dr_willis | jeremybell, ive seen some laptops that have newer chipsets. (realtek) that seem to Play - but make no noise. Must be some driver issue/alsa issue. | 18:34 |

| balzac | I've spent so many hours trying to get the atheros chip working, then I decided to just try new hardware instead, now i hit another brick wall. | 18:36 |

| balzac | hmmm, i wonder why mine was auto-installed with a restricted driver. | 18:37 |
| jeremybell | albech: I cannot unmute it from the keyboard. pressing the mute button mutes and unmutes acording to the software (the mute/unmute icon shows up on screen) but either way sound is muted. | 18:38 |
| Dr_willis | Niteye, you may want to look into the 'restricted' shell feature of bash | 18:38 |
| threethirty | balzac, how old is the hardware | 18:38 |
| === alex__ is now known as alexandruntu | ||
| balzac | I'm not sure. it's an intel wireless 3945ABG mini-pci | 18:38 |

| Dr_willis | rob3r, 'sudo mkdir /media/sdb1 ' 'sudo mount -t FILESYSTEM /dev/sdb1 /media/sdb1' :) is the basics of it. | 18:41 |
| Pici | snkmad: not the -dev packages that you need. | 18:41 |
| jeremybell | albech: exactly, that sounds like what is goign on. the hardware mute seems to turn to muted when the system boots | 18:41 |
| Dr_willis | rob3r, unless you are having more specific issues... | 18:41 |
| snkmad | ah i need regular packages then | 18:41 |
| rob3r | Dr_willis, no, let me try that... I am still very new to Linux, hold on a sec | 18:41 |
| albech | jeremybell: i dont know if you are experiencing the same, but it sound so | 18:41 |
| OmNiPoTeNcE | hello | 18:41 |
| snkmad | Pici so i remove the -dev ones and install the normal ones? | 18:42 |
| ]SintaX[ | is there maybe a util to detect and configure my sound card | 18:42 |
| Pici | snkmad: If you wish. | 18:42 |
| albech | jeremybell: double check that you cannot unmute in software | 18:42 |
| snkmad | Pici well epsxe dont find it | 18:42 |
| Pink_wolfie | O_O | 18:43 |
| snkmad | i do ldd epsxe, and those libs still marked as missing | 18:43 |
| jeremybell | albech: yep, can't unmute in software | 18:43 |
| Dr_willis | rob3r, could also check the ' media: ' location in the gnome filemanager. (or was it media:/ or media://) | 18:43 |
| albech | jeremybell: that little stupid mute icon is so small, its hard to see if its muted or not :( | 18:43 |
| rob3r | Dr_willis, that worked like a charm! Do I have to worry about unmounting and then remounting it every time I plug it in? | 18:43 |
| albech | jeremybell: ok, sorry i cant help you then.. but i think you have the same problem i was having | 18:43 |

| Dr_willis | rob3r, you can use the fstab entryies and make a manual mount point for it. and set the uid/gid/umask options | 19:00 |
| newTrut1 | axel_s apt should do that for you | 19:00 |
| orochi_ | Hmm...no one has java sound problems :/ | 19:00 |

| axel_s | jonasj, thanks! | 19:01 |
| BlkGhost | !fstab | 19:01 |
| 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 | 19:01 |
| Dr_willis | rob3r, mounting Vfat r/w for all users is allover the web. :) /dev/hda1 /mnt/ntfs ntfs uid=1000,gid=100 0 0 willbe SIMILER to your fstab entry you need. | 19:01 |

| abez | Hi, I am looking for a terminal emulator for that works on X11 and GNU/Linux which allows me to highlight text using the keyboard and copy and paste text using the keyboard. I see a few windows terminals which do just this, I see screen can do this, I see emacs can do this. But I'm dealing with curses heavy applications and I want to be able to highlight and copy text to the X11 clipboard easily. Here's an example of what terminal.app does http://www.macworld.c | 19:05 |
| abez | So does anyone know of a terminal for X11 that allows me to highlight, and copy and paste using only the keyboard? | 19:05 |

| AZ____ | so i ran the thing that auto detects and it set it to "nv" | 19:07 |
| AZ____ | and now the res is fine | 19:07 |

Any ideas? | 19:55 |
| pengudeus | Hello. | 19:56 |
| pengudeus | Is there an issue with the latest Ubuntu ISO? Every time I download and burn it ( on multiple computers and multiple platforms ) it seems to be glitchy | 19:57 |
| ferronica_ | anyone here using APC UPS with ubuntu 7.10 gnome ? | 19:57 |
| new2linx | new2Ubuntu: have you run "sudo alsamixer" and checked to see if anything is muted and if any of the capture devices are checked? | 19:57 |
| erUSUL | !md5 | pengudeus | 19:57 |
| ubotu | pengudeus: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/VerifyIsoHowto or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows | 19:57 |
| Sander__ | I'm thinking of buying a new notebook with an intel GMZ X3100 video card... when I saw this but report #120834... any idea about the status? | 19:57 |
| Sander__ | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/120834 | 19:58 |
| pengudeus | Thanks | 19:58 |
| new2Ubuntu | new2linx, I have run sudo alsamixer. but I did run alsamixer by itself | 19:58 |
| new2Ubuntu | haven't* | 19:58 |
| ferronica_ | enable UPS discharge alarm not working :( | 19:58 |

| Taggard | Yay | 19:58 |
| new2linx | new2Ubuntu: are you using alsa or oss within tvime? | 19:58 |
| Taggard | I decided on what system im going to buy | 19:59 |
| new2Ubuntu | new2linx, alsa | 19:59 |
| colourAgga | Hi all. | 19:59 |
| new2Ubuntu | Um Im not sure :S | 19:59 |
| colourAgga | I'm having difficulty with my screen resolution using 7.10. | 19:59 |
| ferronica_ | enable UPS discharge alarm not working :( | 19:59 |
| Taggard | Dell 2.0GHz Dual Core/1GB RAM/128MB VRAM/19"/Ubuntu | 19:59 |
| new2Ubuntu | My sound settings have most set to Autodetect | 19:59 |
| colourAgga | It just doesn't switch, even hardcoding out the other resolutions in the Xorg.conf does not help. | 19:59 |
| _eReN_ | /j #ubuntu/tr | 19:59 |
| _eReN_ | /j #ubuntu/tr | 20:00 |
| new2linx | new2Ubuntu: try another program to view your capture card and see if the sound works there, then you know it's tvtime config somewhere. | 20:00 |
| new2Ubuntu | new2linx, A channel is mute when you see the greyed out MM in the alsamixer column correct? | 20:00 |
| colourAgga | Brb. | 20:00 |
| new2linx | new2Ubuntu: when it states MM at the bottom of the column, that's muted. | 20:01 |
| new2Ubuntu | new2linx, nothing is muted so in all the controls. | 20:01 |
| new2Ubuntu | I can adjust the sound of the playout by reducing the volume of In-gain | 20:01 |
| cookie666 | I'm new to IRC, can someone point me in the direction of where I can ask someone about RAID installation and GRUB problems? | 20:02 |
| colourAgga | So, a quick restart of the X does fix the problem but why won't it just work on automode? | 20:02 |
| maki_maki | any help connecting to a wifi network? i seem to be able to connect to my home network only....other networks show but i cannot connect | 20:02 |
| ferronica_ | anyone here using APC UPS with ubuntu 7.10 gnome ? | 20:02 |
| DFDZ | i wanna make a crossover connection btween my laptop and my desktop what do i have to do? | 20:02 |
| Duesentrieb_ | cookie666: here, or perhaps in #linux | 20:02 |
| bulmer | maki_maki-> you can connect to whom? can you elaborate on your layout? | 20:03 |
| arcade | Hmf | 20:03 |
| arcade | My ubuntu is behaving strangely. | 20:03 |
| bulmer | DFDZ-> you know what a crossover cable does? | 20:04 |
| arcade | When I type "firefox" in my xterm, it doesn't start. 'ps auxf' shows that '/bin/sh /usr/bin/firefox' is waiting for /bin/pwd (of all things..) to finish. | 20:04 |
| arcade | If I try to 'kill' the pwd process, nothing happens. If I kill -9 it, firefox starts. | 20:04 |
| maki_maki | Ubuntu 7.10, new install, I used fwcutter and wl_apsta.o , ok it connects at home but wont connect to any other network than my home net | 20:04 |
| John_R | arcade: do you have the security password feature of firefox enabled? | 20:05 |
| new2linx | new2Ubuntu: have you read the common problems page for tvtime? http://tvtime.sourceforge.net/problems.html | 20:05 |
| arcade | John_R: No. | 20:05 |
| John_R | wierd | 20:05 |
| arcade | John_R: Yes. | 20:05 |
| bulmer | maki_maki-> whats the any other network? not your own? | 20:05 |
| DFDZ | yes i know but i dont know where to change subnetmask and IP manual | 20:05 |
| cookie666 | After installing Ubuntu 7.04 on my desktop on which I just put in a RAID5, when I rebooted it gave me "grub read error", when working off of the livecd to set up the RAID to see if that would fix it, it still gives me the same. I've even tried reinstalling GRUB to the MBR when using the liveCD and still nothing, anyone have anythoughts? | 20:05 |
| spectre | I don't see the orange progress bar anymore at boot with 7.10 | 20:05 |
| mkz | I'd asked a question a few moments ago when my desktop hung and I needed to reboot, so I may have missed the answer. The question was: where is it configured in gutsy to automount devices such as cd's, dvd's, memory sticks, etc? | 20:05 |
| bulmer | DFDZ-> umm..you want a crossover cable or you wanted ip settings? | 20:06 |
| maki_maki | yes when at work or at friends houses i can see the network but it never connects, then when i get home it automatically connects to my router | 20:06 |
| ArthurArchnix | mkz: In gconf-editor | 20:06 |
| arcade | John_R: And, /bin/pwd should just print the working directory and exit .. and it does when I do it manually, but heh .. for some reason it hangs when run through /usr/bin/firefox (which is a shell script, which at some point executes pwd). | 20:06 |
| opendirectorscut | hi, i am a total ubuntu noob and i wanted to ask if someone can help me: i try to scan for w-lan networks, but I don't find any way to do it. | 20:06 |
| dissection | When I go into Network Settings to set a static IP, it hangs. How do I fix this? I can't use my WiFi anymore.. It was working fine till a few hours ago | 20:06 |
| mkz | ArthurArchnix: thank you | 20:06 |
| Irv | Anyone know any thing about this video card? MSI NX7600GS-TD256 NV 7600GS 256MB AGP Card, it is suposed to be nVidia 7600 gs | 20:06 |
| DFDZ | i got a crossovercable ;) | 20:06 |
| DFDZ | i only need to config Ubuntu | 20:06 |
| maki_maki | DFDZ: is it cat5e or cat 5 | 20:06 |
| bulmer | maki_maki-> please respond with a prefix nick, or else your responses will be missed | 20:06 |
| maki_maki | I think crossover is only cat5e | 20:06 |
| mkz | ArthurArchnix: sorry, wrong channel. I'm running kubuntu | 20:07 |
| Sander__ | I saw this bug ( https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/120834 ) on ubuntu launchpad and I was wondering if this was already fixed with some updated drivers? | 20:07 |
| maki_maki | bulmer: ok thanks | 20:07 |
| bulmer | DFDZ-> what kind of connectivity you want? | 20:07 |
| DFDZ | only btween my laptop and my desktop to tranfer files | 20:07 |
| DFDZ | i think its cat | 20:07 |
| bulmer | DFDZ -> please respond with a prefix nick, or else your responses will be missed | 20:07 |
| DFDZ | its an old one a friend gave it to me | 20:07 |
| Pici | Sander__: Since its marked as confirmed and not fix-released, then yes, its still open. | 20:08 |
| opendirectorscut | is there someone who can help me with scanning w lan networks.. i don't have any clue how to make it. | 20:08 |
| timmah | I have xming and putty working but I cannot start firefox because "Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:". What do I need to do now? | 20:08 |
| ArthurArchnix | bulmer: How does that work? "nick bulmer:message" or what... | 20:08 |
| Sander__ | Pici: okay.. so don't buy a notebook with this card | 20:08 |
| bulmer | ArthurArchnix-> just type the nick before you type the rest | 20:08 |
| dissection | When I go into Network Settings to set a static IP, it hangs. How do I fix this? I can't use my WiFi anymore.. It was working fine till a few hours ago | 20:08 |
| new2linx | arcade: I know when I need to kill a firefox session cause it's stuck, I issue sudo killall firefix-bin, so maybe to start it use, firefox-bin. but first kill the firefox command | 20:08 |
| arcade | new2linx: uhm, no. :P | 20:09 |
| DFDZ | bulmer -> ok | 20:09 |
| arcade | new2linx: I'll try debugging the shellscript :P | 20:09 |
| ArthurArchnix | bulmer: and do you know a way to ignore server messages, like who is entering and leaving the room? | 20:09 |
| bulmer | DFDZ okay ..what were you after again? | 20:09 |
| arcade | BLEH. | 20:09 |
| opendirectorscut | is there anyone who can help me?! | 20:09 |
| Sander__ | new2linx: try alt-F2 and then the command xkill for once... that's even easier ;) | 20:09 |
| Alyxander | god i hate my life! | 20:09 |
| Alyxander | sorry venting | 20:10 |
| arcade | It hangs at the first execution of /bin/pwd for some _obscure_ reason. | 20:10 |
| new2Ubuntu | new2linx, I thought I was having an Audio issue till now :S . I recompiled alsa . Will check the site to see if anything could help me thanks | 20:10 |
| bulmer | ArthurArchnix-> usually /ignore nickofuser but sometimes clients dont want to cooperate | 20:10 |
| new2linx | opendirectorscut: ask your question. don't ask if anyone can help you | 20:10 |
| opendirectorscut | i did | 20:10 |
| dn4 | Anyone know why the legacy Glx driver for gutsy won't work for a Riva TNT2 card and also why Ctl alt f1 won't work to drop you back to console | 20:10 |

| navaburo | I am still having driver/resolution issues. But, I am able to run a TEST that displays the correct resolution _and_ driver. | 20:10 |
| DFDZ | bulmer i try to make a connection via cross overcable and need to config ubuntu so which configs do i have to do? | 20:10 |
| ghost | Does anyone know what a .tar is? | 20:10 |
| Pici | ArthurArchnix: it might be /ignore #ubuntu JOINS QUITS PARTS | 20:10 |
| Pici | ghost: its a compressed file. | 20:10 |
| Alyxander | opendirectorscut kde or gnome? | 20:10 |
| arcade | heh, faulty /bin/pwd actually(!) . | 20:10 |
| bulmer | DFDZ on ubuntu side or your other pc side? | 20:10 |
| opendirectorscut | gnome | 20:10 |
| ghost | thanks! | 20:11 |
| arcade | If I run it manually, instead of the pwd shell-builtin, it too hangs. | 20:11 |
| bratliff | linux dc++ , it is in the repositry sp | 20:11 |
| DFDZ | both gut ubuntu | 20:11 |
| Alyxander | opendirectorscut does gome have a network manager? | 20:11 |
| ArthurArchnix | Pici: Nope. | 20:11 |
| DFDZ | bulmer both got ubuntu | 20:11 |
| new2linx | opendirectorscut: try sudo iwlist wlan0 scan IF your interface is wlan0 | 20:11 |
| arcade | Now, how do I freshen the package that contains /bin/pwd, I wonder. | 20:11 |
| Pici | ArthurArchnix: not sure then, that would work in irssi. | 20:11 |
| opendirectorscut | yea, but i don't find any function for it | 20:11 |
| navaburo | When I run displayconfig-gtk, i can enable nvidia (or nv) instead of vesa and set my monitor type and resolution, and test it sucessfully! But it doesnt stay! When I click OK and close the config tool and then reopen it it is back to the defaults! | 20:11 |
| bulmer | DFDZ okay look in the /etc/network/interfaces file | 20:11 |
| opendirectorscut | that's my prb | 20:11 |
| ArthurArchnix | ignore #ubuntu | 20:11 |
| opendirectorscut | prob | 20:11 |
| bratliff | tar is like zip in windows | 20:11 |
| bratliff | archive program | 20:11 |
| Alyxander | opendirectorscut try kismet | 20:11 |
| arcade | .. in other words, how do I find what package /bin/pwd belongs to, and then freshen that package (something like rpm -Fvh `rpm -qf /bin/pwd ` - but in apt-speak). | 20:12 |
| opendirectorscut | isn't it for kde? | 20:12 |
| Alyxander | oopendirectorscut or will knetmanager work in gnome? | 20:12 |
| bulmer | ArthurArchnix-> usually /ignore nickofuser but sometimes clients dont want to cooperate <-- a slash in front of ignore | 20:12 |
| DFDZ | bulmer thx | 20:12 |
| new2linx | opendirectorscut: you can find out your wireless interface by issuing iwconfig or ifconfig | 20:12 |
| opendirectorscut | i am not sure about that | 20:12 |
| Alyxander | opendirectorscut nope kismet is cl based | 20:12 |
| juan | how can i get information my memory?e.g type and number of slots aval/used? (without turning my system off) | 20:12 |
| opendirectorscut | ok thanks | 20:12 |
| ArthurArchnix | "/help" gives list of commands... I'm new to IRC. | 20:12 |
| Rogi | i changed video card, how do I change the nvidia driver so it looks at correct PCI slot? | 20:12 |
| dissection | When I go into Network Settings to set a static IP, it hangs. How do I fix this? I can't use my WiFi anymore.. It was working fine till a few hours ago.. | 20:12 |
| ArthurArchnix | All the messages are distracting though. | 20:12 |
| opendirectorscut | iwconfig or ifconfig? | 20:12 |
| new2linx | juan: issue sudo /proc/meminfo | 20:12 |
| opendirectorscut | something in the shell? | 20:13 |
| ArthurArchnix | mode | 20:13 |
| opendirectorscut | i'll try kismet | 20:13 |
| new2linx | juan: sorry, I meant, cat /proc/meminfo | 20:13 |
| ArthurArchnix | s | 20:13 |
| bulmer | dissection-> is your AP dolling out static ip addreses or dynamic? | 20:13 |
| * Ackdar is having wireless problems. To be more specific, I can't activate it. | 20:13 | |
| dissection | bulmer: Both, but its not getting an IP when I tried with dynamic, though it was working fine till earlier today. | 20:14 |
| bulmer | Ackdar-> which wifi card do you have? did you load the driver? | 20:14 |
| juan | new2linx: thx but that just gives memory usage info | 20:14 |
| Puppy_ | When I try to turn off my computer, it hangs at the desktop for a really long time. Does anyone know how to fix this? | 20:14 |
| dissection | bulmer: And the WiFi light is also off.. I don't know why.. | 20:14 |
| juan | !wifi > Ackdar | 20:14 |
| bulmer | dissection-> what command did you use to associate to your AP? | 20:14 |
| new2linx | juanL what about within System, Admin, Hardware or is it System, Pref, Hardware | 20:14 |
| Ackdar | bulmer, the included drivers with ubuntu work | 20:14 |

| Ackdar | juan: been there, done it all, still nothing | 20:15 |

| Ackdar | bulmer, it does say access point: invalid, though | 20:18 |

| new2linx | godzirra: have you gone to the ubuntuforums and read the comprehensive sound guide? | 20:19 |
| godzirra | Yup. Thats what I used to compile alsa to begin with. | 20:19 |
| jeffrey | Can anyone help me with a sound problem | 20:19 |
| opendirectorscut | hmm .. is there a possibility that kismet runs only via the shell/terminal | 20:19 |
| bruenig | opendirectorscut, that is all kismet does from what I understand | 20:19 |
| Viden | Does anyone know why ALSA wouldnt be able to play multiple sound sources on a Creative Audigy LS ... get resource is busy on the 2nd sound source? (Sorry had to correct the card model) | 20:19 |

| Irv | Ok thanks guys and gals | 20:21 |
| Duesentrieb_ | rukuartic: putting some directory on their own partition helps to avoid running out of disk space completely (but makes it more likely to run out of disk space for some things) | 20:21 |
| new2linx | okeefenokee: easiest is to add each computer to the /etc/hosts file. | 20:22 |
| jeffrey | Can anyone help me with a sound problem | 20:22 |
| Duesentrieb_ | rukuartic: i like to have /var and /home on serparate partitions | 20:22 |

| bulmer | Ackdar-> btw, is that your AP? what is the essid of your AP? | 20:22 |
| attilax2000 | Xchat -gnome irc chat cannot be installed on your computer type (i386). Either the application requires special hardware features or the vendor decided to not support your computer type ? | 20:22 |
| rukuartic | Duesentrieb_: Lets say I had the sudden urge to change distros... Should I be able to just move my /home partiton around? | 20:22 |
| okeefenokee | new2linx: But doesn't that demand a fixed ip-number (the hosts-solution)? | 20:22 |
| new2linx | jeffrey: just ask your question. | 20:22 |
| attilax2000 | how come ? | 20:22 |
| new2linx | okeefenokee: yes | 20:23 |
| Duesentrieb_ | rukuartic: it might also be nice to make /tmp and/or /tmptmp a symlink to a dir in /var | 20:23 |
| olivier__ | does anybody know how to go from 2.0 to 5.1 ? (yes, i tried the documentation, thanks) | 20:23 |
| bulmer | dissection-> can you please pastebin your iwconfig results | 20:23 |
| godzirra | new2linx: it works currently in windows and worked before in feisty. | 20:23 |
| godzirra | new2linx: so fairly certain the hardware works :) | 20:23 |

| jeffrey | i have a 5.1 speaker setup only 1 speaker and the sub is working how do i get the whole setup to work | 20:23 |
| me8myself | hey in ubuntu under visual effects when i try to turn it onto to anything over none i get a popup "the composite exstention is not available" how do i fix that? | 20:23 |
| bulmer | dissection-> its hard for me to guess...you have to find a way to paste the info i seek to assist you | 20:24 |
| Duesentrieb_ | rukuartic: moving the home partition... well, it depend on wjhat you have on there. you might have distro-specific binaries in your home, etc. or some config settings may rely on the distro-specific location of things. but generally, yes. | 20:24 |
| okeefenokee | new2linx: That's not an option :( Another option would then be to let one of the computers function as a wins-server, aye? | 20:24 |
| zcat[1] | If I install a program manually in /opt/, how can I add it to the global menus (I know how to add it to my own menu, but I want to make it accessable for all four users) | 20:24 |
| Duesentrieb_ | rukuartic: it should be failry safe to copy /home to anotehr distro. i would not recommend to *share* it though | 20:24 |
| new2linx | okeefenokee: why is static ip not an option? Yes, WINS server is next then. | 20:24 |
| dissection | bulmer: Okay I'll just type it.. wait | 20:24 |

| Mmjack | SOrry about a ideotic question but me=linuxnoob | 20:24 |
| okeefenokee | new2linx: Because the router serving out the ip-numbers is beyond my control | 20:24 |

| new2linx | jeffrey: what sound card, have you read the comprehensive sound guide at ubuntuforums | 20:26 |
| zcat[1] | Mmjack: 'nothing happens' means what? file not found? Permission denied? or really nothing? | 20:26 |
| * AA is seeing if his new nickname took effect. | 20:26 | |
| bulmer | Mmjack-> where did you get this script? it could have come from a bad guy..and you're sol after..lolz | 20:26 |

| okeefenokee | new2linx: Well, from the given ip-numbers I've had a look at, they vary from ??.???.???.72-222 ... it seems to me that the whole range is used | 20:27 |
| bulmer | Ackdar-> btw, is that your AP? what is the essid of your AP? | 20:27 |
| Duesentrieb_ | Mmjack: if you just doubleclick them, it will probably open a console and run them in there - but most shell scripts require params, and will simply exit if they don't get any. so the max you see is a flicker. | 20:27 |
| zcat[1] | Mmjack: usually no output at all means the script went ahead and did whatever it was supposed to do.. and had no problems to report | 20:27 |

| zcat[1] | and the packaged nvidia-glx-new IS nvidia's latest driver afaik | 20:36 |
| okeefenokee | new2linx: Naw, I expressed m'self a bit unclearly...I meant that samba has to be installed, with the wins-option on, to have this system work. | 20:36 |
| frojnd | Duesentrieb_, hm... the results are the same :S Strange... I mean is there anything deeper just than a client for viewing pdf... | 20:37 |
| Kl4m | nintendo64: Was it trying to resize a Windows partition? | 20:37 |
| bulmer | Ackdar-> is your router also the AP? | 20:37 |
| ompaul | nintendo64, you got a package and an o/s and it is always useful to have some room hanging around | 20:37 |
| nintendo64 | idk what partition it was going to do | 20:37 |
| new2linx | okeefenokee: as I said, I am not sure. if you click on shared folders, then type in the WINS server IP address there, I think it'll install samba yes. | 20:37 |
| Ackdar | bulmer: I'd assume routers ARE access points no matter where they are | 20:37 |
| nintendo64 | I don;t have 14 GB free | 20:37 |
| nintendo64 | And I don;t want it overriteing windows | 20:38 |
| bulmer | Ackdar-> nope, routers are not necessarily access point, my ubuntu is a router and its not an access point | 20:38 |
| Wisteso | it cant overwrite windows anyway | 20:38 |
| Wisteso | windows = ntfs/fat32 | 20:38 |
| nintendo64 | it cant? lol | 20:38 |
| Wisteso | no, it would have to format | 20:38 |
| Ackdar | bulmer, I just want it to be able to connect to my router | 20:38 |
| nintendo64 | so even if I make it do the wrong thing it couldnt overwrite windows? | 20:38 |
| Kl4m | Well of course it CAN | 20:39 |

| _ac_chan_ | hello | 20:39 |
| bulmer | Ackdar again is your router same as the access point? does it have an antenna? what brand? | 20:39 |
| okeefenokee | new2linx: Actually, I'm running an command line mode...and I intended to have *one* computer running samba and functioning as a wins-server. Found here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=65385&highlight=wins | 20:39 |
| nintendo64 | will it tell me before it formats | 20:39 |
| Wisteso | haha, i would assume so | 20:39 |
| new2linx | okeefenokee: sounds good. that should work if you follow that guide then. I gotta go. good luck | 20:39 |
| zcat[1] | Hints for resizing windows; defrag is usually a good idea. Cleanly slosing Windows before you boot the live CD is ESSENTIAL. | 20:39 |
| Kl4m | nintendo64: I suspect that the Windows partition doesn't have enough free space on it to resize it small enough to put Ubuntu on another one | 20:40 |
| zcat[1] | *closing | 20:40 |

| zcat[1] | the ubuntu installer will NOT try to resize your NTFS unless it is absloutely in order. If you get even a little bit into booting windows, you must let it finiosh then cleanly shut down again from the menu. | 20:41 |
| bulmer | Ackdar-> once you connect to the AP, and the AP is not connected further upstream, what do you expect to accomplish? | 20:41 |

| bluefox83 | err_, you were way off, but thanks anyways | 21:08 |
| neopsyche | Duesentrieb_: I think i will install an antivirus program anyway? :-) | 21:08 |
| Duesentrieb_ | neopsyche: it probably just is like any other zip. if you want to be "safer", open stuff with "dumb" programs that don't do stuff "magically". most infections are caused by windows stuff "helping" you to run stuff automatically. | 21:08 |
| err_ | bluefox83: heheh, maybe i misunderstood your question | 21:08 |
| Duesentrieb_ | neopsyche: sure, install clamav | 21:08 |

| Symian | wick3dbluntz420: I am trying to switch my sound device to card1, which is a PCI card. | 21:13 |
| dissection | Bulmer, are you still here? | 21:13 |
| Symian | wick3dbluntz420: alsamixer is using card0, the motherboard audio, which is incorrect. | 21:13 |

| Duesentrieb_ | neopsyche: i don't know, go and look. netstat is your friend. | 21:14 |

| stefg | kakoonia: google for an app called xhotkeys . Thta's not the only way, but the simplest | 21:58 |
| jimjam | dissection: First, make sure your wireless is switched on. | 21:58 |
| jimjam | dissection: Then click on the network icon in the top-right of the screen | 21:59 |
| kakoonia | stefg: isnt there some hotkey feature with gutsy? | 21:59 |

| CochiseIRL | usrl, which repo you want to view? | 21:59 |
| dissection | Should I enable or disable roaming mode? | 22:00 |
| stefg | kakoonia: there's some labourious procedures within gnome .... just use the separate xhotkeys daemon, it's much simpler and works in every desktop environment | 22:00 |
| usrl | CochiseIRL: http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu | 22:00 |

| boselecta | first, the clock didn't update to standard time by itself. i went in and fiddled with the TZ settings and then it seemed to update properly. then i logged in today, and it was an hour too slow for a while, then all of a sudden it kicked an hour forward. | 22:01 |

| martbhell | ah | 22:06 |
| martbhell | thanks! | 22:06 |
| Curley_Sue | dissection: right click on it - do u have several options? | 22:06 |

| martbhell | i hope this is just more prominent on my poor laptop | 22:06 |

| martbhell | cos nobody could want this :p | 22:06 |
| Crash1hd | I guess this might have something to do with it: You *cannot* compile code on this machine. | 22:06 |
| Crash1hd | when I log in | 22:06 |

| jimjam | usrl: Yeah. The little hamsters I have in my computer doing all the thinking :P | 22:06 |

| usrl | jimjam: you wouldn't happen to work for CCP, would you? | 22:07 |
| ArthurArchnix | dissection: Your post confuses me. Do you have a windows machine and a linux machine, or is this a dual boot machine. Second, are you saying that you can sometimes connect to the internet with the linux machine, or never. | 22:07 |
| dissection | ArthurArchnix: Yeah two systems | 22:08 |
| Ackdar_ | I seem to be getting " Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0" on iwconfig, what does it mean? | 22:08 |

Its been giving me headaches ever since.. Sometimes even the wired network doesn't work, sometimes it doesn't. And the wireless now doesn't work at all | 22:09 |

| stefg | rbs-tito: try a reboot. and from my personal experience i prefer vlc over mplayer for DVD playback | 22:17 |
| dooglus | I ssh'ed to a remote host and port-forwarded 5900 on the localhost to 5900 on the remote host. then shut the remote host down. now port 5900 can't be used on the localhost. how can I make it available again? | 22:17 |
| nintendo64 | how do I get rid of them | 22:17 |
| ArthurArchnix | dissection: No. Please use pastebin and post the output of ifconfig | 22:17 |
| CochiseIRL | chop, you'll have to resize the xp from the ubuntu setup so you can fit ubuntu on the drive | 22:17 |
| dissection | Okay | 22:17 |
| ArthurArchnix | !pastbin dissection: | 22:17 |
| axjv | Does anyone know which driver works best with an Intel 945GM graphics card? I've tried i810 and intel, but they both have flaws. | 22:17 |

| masmota | nintendo64: irssi, bitchx, xchat | 22:17 |
| rbs-tito | stefg: I'll try it now. Should totem-gstreamer technically work or only -xine? It is annoying because different backends are better at different formats | 22:17 |
| ja5on | Whats the best app in gnome for burning audio CD's | 22:17 |
| ubotu | dissection: 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) | 22:18 |
| CochiseIRL | chop, use the empty 20gb for ubuntu and the swap | 22:18 |
| orion-uk | try Konversation | 22:18 |
| nintendo64 | ya I tryed downloading xchat for linux from the site, and it just sayd that it wasn't supported | 22:18 |
| ArthurArchnix | Ackdar: Thanks | 22:18 |
| chop | CochiseIRL, set the mount point as / correct ? | 22:18 |
| kkerwin | Hi. In Konversation, is there anyway to get a list of channels on a server? | 22:18 |
| SinCosTan | Is it a bad idea to use Debian .debs on a Ubuntu system? | 22:18 |
| CochiseIRL | chop, yes and leave a swap partition of the same size of your ram | 22:18 |
| nintendo64 | is rpm supposed to be the ubuntu equivilant of .exe | 22:18 |
| CochiseIRL | SinCosTan, depends on the app | 22:18 |
| chop | CochiseIRL, my ram is 2gb how much ? | 22:18 |
| mycroftiv | nintendo64: don't download from websites, use the ubuntu repositories with synaptic or add/remove software | 22:18 |
| orion-uk | file..server list /-) | 22:18 |
| rbs-tito | SinCosTan: If there are Ubuntu specific ones then use them, if not Debian usually works | 22:18 |
| kkerwin | nintendo64: RPMs and DEBs are packages used to install a program. | 22:19 |
| usrl | nintendo64: Ubuntu is debian based, not red hat. We use .deb, but it's fairly similar. I think .deb is closer to .msi though | 22:19 |
| Ackdar_ | kkerwin, try /list | 22:19 |
| CochiseIRL | chop, use 18gb for / and 2gb for swap | 22:19 |
| kkerwin | Ackdar_: Thank you. :-) | 22:19 |
| stefg | rbs-tito: actually i don't know if totem-gstreamer runs with libdvdcss. For me only vlc supports DVD menus properly, so i never actually was interested in trying something else | 22:19 |
| CochiseIRL | nintendo64, rpm is for fedora | 22:19 |
| rbs-tito | nintendo64: Ubuntu doesn't use RPM | 22:19 |
| dissection | Ackdar_: http://www.nomorepasting.com/getpaste.php?pasteid=6214 | 22:19 |
| SinCosTan | CochiseIRL: it's Csound - the version in repo is ancient but the project has posted .debs themselves | 22:19 |
| Ax-Ax | hm | 22:19 |
| CochiseIRL | SinCosTan, is there a ubuntu deb there? | 22:19 |
| ArthurArchnix | dissction: can you add to that the output of lspci, sorry. | 22:19 |
| nintendo64 | I just installed ubuntu and there's a bunch of weird lines running down my screen | 22:19 |
| chop | CochiseIRL, how do i setup the swap ? | 22:20 |
| mycroftiv | nintendo64: ubuntu has pidgin installed by default which is graphical app that handles tons of messenging formats including IRC, to fix your graphics you need to setup the xserver to use your graphics card correctly | 22:20 |
| nintendo64 | how do I get rid of these lines running down my screen | 22:20 |
| SinCosTan | CochiseIRL: nope. I found something on the wiki that said I should try rebuilding the debs on Ubuntu in the first instance but that seems overkill? | 22:20 |
| nintendo64 | ok | 22:20 |
| CochiseIRL | chop, after u made the 18gb partition make another and pick the mount point as swap | 22:20 |
| usrl | nintendo64: Do you mean during booting, or a graphics glitch, or what? Just 'lines' doesn't tell us much | 22:20 |
| Ackdar_ | dissection, once again, I can't help, so why are you giving that to me? | 22:20 |

| Max-T | Is it possible for me to use the synaptic tool to download a package and all its dependencies as say .deb files to a datapen to then install them on a computer that does not have internet acess? | 22:20 |
| CochiseIRL | SinCosTan, use the debian one so or compile from source | 22:20 |
| Ax-Ax | why doesnt all my resolutions show up in Change Resolution window? | 22:20 |
| dissection | ArthurArchnix: http://www.nomorepasting.com/getpaste.php?pasteid=6214 | 22:20 |

| CochiseIRL | chop, yup | 22:21 |
| nintendo64 | the lines have been running down my screen before I opened irc | 22:21 |
| SinCosTan | CochiseIRL: do I need to do anything special to keep Synaptic happy? I think I have a metapackage depend on the csound currently installed | 22:21 |
| nintendo64 | these lines have been there seince the desktop opened | 22:21 |
| mycroftiv | nintendo64: you have to configure X for your graphics setup, there are several different ways to approach it, but you need to have the info on what graphics card you are using and what resolution your monitor supports | 22:21 |
| CochiseIRL | SinCosTan, if you can remove the old one first do, its generally better before using a newer version | 22:21 |
| Shapeshifter | I'm trying to install Ubuntu 7.10 on a nvidia driven computer. But I can't even get to the live cd environment! >.< I tired safe-graphics, I tried various VGA options, but the X server keeps crashing perpetualy! | 22:21 |

| ArthurArchnix | dissection: I'll need you to post the output of lspci to pastebin as well. You said that your wired network is working, is that correct? | 22:22 |

| usrl | Ackdar_: Can it connect to other routers? | 22:24 |
| usrl | Ackdar_: and does it find your router and refuse to connect, or not see it at all? | 22:24 |

| EminX | Hi to all | 22:45 |
| mycroftiv | nintendo64: you should use the ubuntu repositories to install software, ubuntu has premade packages of xchat that can be installed on your system automatically, you can use the synaptic package manager for a good graphical tool to install what you need | 22:45 |
| X-Forte | that is the chipset | 22:45 |
| Ackdar_ | slava_, did you use sudo apt-get install <pkg>? | 22:45 |
| nintendo64 | ok.. | 22:45 |
| nintendo64 | O.o | 22:45 |
| X-Forte | and the drivers in ubuntu | 22:45 |
| X-Forte | are | 22:45 |
| === vheurteaux is now known as acuster | ||
| slava_ | Ackdar_, yeah, that doesn't work, and apt-get update reports 404's for package indices | 22:45 |
| X-Forte | Broadcom 43xx | 22:45 |
| masmota | nintendo64: go to administration and click on synaptic.. then search for xchat | 22:45 |
| X-Forte | but | 22:45 |
| X-Forte | is a problem | 22:45 |
| X-Forte | in loading | 22:45 |

| X-Forte | when | 22:45 |
| X-Forte | i start the laptop | 22:46 |
| X-Forte | is that problem in ubuntu | 22:46 |
| MrNintendo | i guess nobody can help me =[ | 22:46 |
| rbs-tito | X-Forte: OK, first thing to do is press alt + f2 and into the run box type "gksudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist" | 22:46 |
| X-Forte | the drivers can-t load | 22:46 |
| usr13 | Ackdar_: You do not have a fully supported wireless nic. | 22:46 |
| Ackdar_ | hrm | 22:46 |
| slava_ | looks like breezy-badger packages have disappeared off the face of the earth | 22:46 |
| Ackdar_ | I knew that | 22:46 |
| X-Forte | i try in safe mode | 22:46 |
| Ackdar_ | so I installed the bcm43xx firmware | 22:46 |
| X-Forte | and the same | 22:46 |

Furthermore, you will not be able to use encription unless you get a fully supported wireless NIC. And as far as I know, that is not a fully supported NIC. | 22:48 |

| MrNintendo | lol | 23:02 |
| bob3000 | everything was fine and I had access to all the programs user 'system' 'administrtor'... | 23:02 |

| lysdexic1 | does anybody know how i'd get the location of any mount of a dev, for example if /dev/mmcblk0 was mounted on /media/disk, i could run a command, pass it /dev/mmcblk0 and it'd return me /media/disk? | 23:05 |
| Jeffrey | how come i cant go higher on my resolution im stuck at 1024x768 | 23:05 |
| ibookG4 | masmota, yes right, but I'm installing ubuntu 7.10 from CD | 23:05 |
| Jimmey | sunilonln, it depends on the HDD setup, but you maybe can boot into a liveCD, resize the ubuntu partition, install XP in the empty space, then re-install GRUB afterward. | 23:05 |
| bob3000 | rbs-tito: okay now what? | 23:05 |
| usr13 | lysdexic1: mount | 23:06 |
| aixguru1 | Sunilonin: If you installed XP, then booted back up with a CD, and manually reinstall your bootloader, that would work. You would need to have the partitions setup already though. Probably using something like partition magic or similar | 23:06 |
| Jimmey | lysdexic1, mount ? | 23:06 |
| rbs-tito | bob3000: You should hae had the option to change the root password. Then type "su root" and the password, yo should be able to alter priveleges | 23:06 |
| Frogzoo | theaceoffire: maybe..: http://wlug.org.nz/TrafficShaping | 23:06 |
| sunilonln | Jimmey, aixguru1: thanks | 23:06 |
| w4ett | sunilonln: xp needs to be installed first..then Ununtu | 23:06 |
| Jimmey | lysdexic1, mount | grep /dev/XXXX | 23:06 |
| masmota | ibookg4: ok when the cd is booted, before clicking install go to accessories > terminal and run "sudo ifconfig eth0 down" .. that should stop it from contacting the mirrors | 23:06 |
| lysdexic1 | jimmey, usr13: i'd like to use it in a bash script, is there a more elegant way than grepping a mount output? | 23:06 |
| Jeffrey | help me pa favor | 23:06 |
| usr13 | lysdexic1: Issue command: mount |grep /dev/xxx | 23:06 |
| bob3000 | rbs-tito: after i typed in sudo passwd it went a line down - should i now type in the new pass? | 23:06 |
| masmota | ibookg4: you may have to do eth1 too if you have more than 1 nic | 23:06 |
| xEmblem | is it possible to install upgrades with qemu? | 23:07 |
| Jimmey | sunilonln, XP doesn't need to be installed first, but it does need to be onthe first drive. | 23:07 |
| Jeffrey | ay me deus | 23:07 |
| sunilonln | Jimmey: i've only got one drive, so i think i'm fine there | 23:07 |

| masmota | np | 23:08 |
| lysdexic1 | usr13: i'd then have to use cut to get just where it's mounted i suppose? might become awkward if there are spaces in the mount | 23:08 |
| usr13 | Jimmey: sunilonln Correction: First partition of drive | 23:08 |
| Jimmey | sunilonln, then you need to boot the liveCD, resize the Ubuntu partition, then install XP in the empty space. After XP is installed and working, use the liveCD again, and sort GRUB | 23:08 |
| sunilonln | Jimmey: it looks like i can shrink my ubuntu partition with gparted, create a fat partition in that empty space, run the windows installer to that partition, and then restore grub | 23:08 |
| MtJB | is it true dell has dumped ubuntu in the uk, as the inquirer is reporting? | 23:08 |

| Jeffrey | ay meu deus ajudem fida putas | 23:09 |
| Jimmey | sunilonln, sure - But NTFS may be better... | 23:09 |
| sunilonln | ok | 23:09 |
| sunilonln | sounds good | 23:09 |
| usr13 | Jimmey: sunilonln Correction: MS Windows must be installed on the first partition of the drive | 23:09 |
| Jimmey | sunilonln, just resize the partition, XP can install in the emtpy space | 23:09 |

| Jimmey | usr13, it doesn't - It needs to be on the first drive of the computer, partitions don't come into it then | 23:10 |
| Jeffrey | help me ! | 23:10 |
| lysdexic1 | usr13: i need to return where a device is mounted in a bash script, mount | grep blah returns "/dev/mmcblk0 on /media/Memory card type", i'd then have to use 'cut' to get just /media/Memory card i assume? | 23:10 |

| vontux | abe: I'll look into those | 23:11 |

| axjv | Does anyone know of any stable drivers for a 945GM besides i810? (intel isn't too stable) | 23:11 |

| ubotu | SCP is a secure way of copying files across networks using !SSH. Usage: scp filename user@host:filename - WinSCP is a client for Windows, available at http://winscp.net/ | 23:11 |
| bawlz | Ubuntu refuses to boot from the cd, it says "CD read error." When I try to run the Ubuntu in windows with autoplay, it says loading and then does nothing... Any Suggestions? | 23:11 |
| Jimmey | sunilonln, from the liveCD - you can't resize a currently mounted partition, and you can't unmount your / partition. | 23:11 |
| sunilonln | axjv: i've used both i810 and intel and they're stable for me | 23:11 |
| ibookG4 | masmota: do you have ibook too? | 23:11 |
| vontux | abe: and you do this over the internet, not over a local network? | 23:11 |

| === guyzmo_ is now known as guyzmo | ||
| abe | vontux, yes, but i make them an account, so he only can put files in his folders and then you can use nautilus ssh://ip and you are in | 23:14 |

| me8myself | !audio | 23:34 |
| 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 | 23:34 |

| Shapeshifter | Lishious: su to root, I don't know how to do that in mandriva, I guess you know | 23:37 |
| jj420 | is there a command i can type maybe the gui isnt setting the settings right? | 23:37 |
| Shapeshifter | Lishious: just be a root user in that terminal ;) | 23:37 |
| Lishious | yeah i no sudo,, kay done | 23:37 |
| kst- | is there a way to protect evolution via password? | 23:37 |
| Jeffrey | jj420, that would be the case if you x'd out and when you re-enter your settings were not saved | 23:37 |
| Shapeshifter | Lishious: run these commands: | 23:38 |
| jj420 | ok | 23:38 |
| vontux | thx to all who assisted me | 23:38 |
| Shapeshifter | Lishious: 1. command: "grub" , then 2. "find /boot/grub/stage1" and tell me the output | 23:38 |
| javaJake | Lemme put this all in one message: I'm trying to help someone with a PPC LiveCD. Since I don't know what he's seeing (since I've never used Gutsy PPC version), I don't know what to tell him to do. He has a problem where the boot fails and drops him back to BusyBox, as said here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PowerPCKnownIssues#head-ddd818234162c8eabf09f4c3de25d45dc0209b61 However... When I tell him to type in the modprobe bit, h | 23:39 |

| demon_spork | How do I run firefox on 2 different X sessions? whenever I have it opened on one X session, and then try to open it on another it just says "Firefox is already running, but is not responding. to open a new window, you must first close the existing firefox process, or restart your system." | 23:40 |
| javaJake | !flood | Lishious | 23:40 |
| ubotu | Lishious: 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) | 23:40 |
| NineTails | sup? | 23:40 |
| Prez | Shapeshifter: that solution rocked, I can work now, thanks | 23:40 |
| Shapeshifter | Lishious: nice, next time, please use a pastebin ;) anyway: do you have an idea in which order you installed those two linux distros on your harddrive? | 23:40 |
| ArthurArchnix | Yes! Bruce89 in the forums showed me how to disable all the "who's coming / who's going nonsense". | 23:41 |
| Shapeshifter | Prez: yeah, it looks shitty though ^^ I hope they'll fix that soon.... | 23:41 |
| x_ | buhuuuu | 23:41 |
| ArthurArchnix | In pidgeon's main window, >tools >plugins >join/part plugin | 23:41 |
| Lishious | yeah so far this is what i have going and sorry for th eflood im new to irc as well,,, i insatlled rsit Winxp,Yoper,Ubunto,And finshing mandriva i just need to finsh config grub | 23:41 |
| ArthurArchnix | Much cleaner and easier to read. | 23:41 |
| javaJake | ArthurArchnix, I use XChat - much better client. ;) | 23:41 |
| Lishious | first winxp...* | 23:42 |
| javaJake | Lishious, quite an array of OSs! :) | 23:42 |
| MajorPayne | Ohh! irssi is the only IRC client that counts. | 23:42 |
| javaJake | MajorPayne, GUI rocks, though. :D | 23:42 |
| degreseven | does anyone else have major stability issues with firefox? i t freezes for several seconds for me almost every time i open a new tab, and it completely crashes at least a couple times a day. | 23:42 |
| Lishious | haha well i have ubunto because its deb atleast i think! | 23:42 |
| Shapeshifter | Lishious: Ok, what text editor have you installed? | 23:42 |
| Evanlec | wth is Yoper | 23:42 |
| Ashex | Telnet > irssi | 23:42 |
| MajorPayne | javaJake: It doesn't work with screen. | 23:42 |
| Ashex | it's way hardcore | 23:43 |
| javaJake | MajorPayne, hahahaha | 23:43 |
| Shapeshifter | Lishious: or which one, kde or gnome? | 23:43 |
| Ashex | you can show off by having to respond to the server pings manually | 23:43 |
| Ashex | otherwise you get disconnected | 23:43 |
| Lishious | k | 23:43 |
| Evanlec | lol ashex | 23:43 |
| Jeffrey | how come i am restricted to 1024x768 resolution | 23:43 |
| Lishious | knotes, there all k somthing | 23:43 |
| Shapeshifter | Lishious: no I mean, _which one have you installed?_ | 23:43 |
| NineTails | out of interest | 23:43 |
| MajorPayne | javaJake: irssi+screen is the way to go. You only need putty on any computer you are on to access your irc client, without disconnecting. | 23:43 |
| javaJake | MajorPayne, mhmm | 23:44 |
| Lishious | kde i dont have any gnome stuff | 23:44 |
| MajorPayne | javaJake: putty for Windows computers that is. Any ssh client will do. | 23:44 |
| Shapeshifter | Lishious: ok, run this: knote /boot/grub/menu.lst | 23:44 |
| javaJake | MajorPayne, or Xming (which comes with putty) and you can remotely command an XChat window... | 23:44 |
| Evanlec | i like irssi but havent figured screen out yet | 23:44 |
| javaJake | MajorPayne, ;0 | 23:44 |
| javaJake | MajorPayne, ;) | 23:44 |
| MajorPayne | javaJake: Yea, but then you have a huge GUI to worry about. | 23:44 |
| MajorPayne | javaJake: irssi is much more efficent. | 23:44 |
| javaJake | irssi is probably better, but it reminds me of vi. *brrr* | 23:44 |
| Shapeshifter | Lishious: A file should open having some entries at the bottom | 23:45 |
| javaJake | Exactly! So is vim - it's efficient, but terribly hard to learn | 23:45 |
| * Evanlec likes vim | 23:45 | |
| MajorPayne | javaJake: Ahh. Yea. Irssi isn't that difficult to learn. | 23:45 |
| javaJake | So, no one else has installed Ubuntu PPC on an iMac G4, then? :P | 23:45 |
| Lishious | knote ommand wasnt found so i cahnged it 2 kwrite,,, and theterminal has a bunch of stuff but the kwrite box has nothing written | 23:46 |
| dudewithtwoheads | hi ubunty community, i have quick question, i | 23:46 |
| Shapeshifter | Lishious: Ok, please go to the mandriva channel and tell them they should help you add an entry in grub, tell them that you found (hd0,4) and (hd0,6) being the locations of your distros. And, is it the latest ubuntu gutsy? | 23:47 |
| yoramdavid | hello | 23:47 |

| Shapeshifter | Lishious: I don't know where mandriva has it's grub menu.lst. You need to find that one, then paste this at the end of the list: http://pastebin.org/7276 read the comment at the beginning, and don't paste it ^^ | 23:50 |

| yoramdavid | thanks | 23:50 |

Can I have the default desktop settings a new install would have had? | 23:54 |
| Shapeshifter | Lishious: I'm not sure. Is your ubuntu partition mounted? | 23:54 |
| kakoonia | lishious , Evanlec : when i started downloading a torrent file yesterday, it opened a bittorrent app window. | 23:54 |
| scorp123 | jj420: check your movie player's preferences .... maybe you can change the settings for video rendering. | 23:54 |
| kakoonia | im on gutsy | 23:54 |

| deadlylife | Is there a channel on this server or a seperate server for the Planeshift MMOPRG? | 23:57 |
| Shapeshifter | Prez: Mh, I had that too sometime ago. Now I don't even have to have it ticked. ^^ you could try reinstalling compiz (your configs will not get lost) or you can try and ask at #compiz-fusion | 23:58 |
| deadlylife | Or any Linux MMOPRGs. | 23:58 |
| Prez | Shapeshifter: will do, thanks again | 23:58 |
