[14:56] Pici sudo apt-get install gnome?? [14:56] stefg on linux i just download packages i need .. so they shouldnt take space .. the thing is more the data im processing is taking space .. can i store it in the new partition ? [14:56] stefg: although i don't think i know what i'm looking for, i don't see anything with USB write protect is on... just with sda [14:56] the_fish i have libesd-alsa0 installed, and libao2, might be the list [14:56] then do apt-get remove kdm kde-core kde-base [14:56] hmm [14:56] mosibfu so esd isnt default sound server? [14:56] I have the bittorrent installed but I get "bash: bittorrent: command not found" [14:56] the package* [14:57] mosibfu libao2 is installed here also :/ [14:57] Yancho: then i would rather resize the / -partition *down* to say 6 Gigs, and make a 10 G /home partition [14:57] Dralid: if this is a removable drive, it should already be automatically mounted at every startup. or did you mean a partition on an internal drive? [14:57] the_fish esd is a software sound mixer, so u can hear 2 sounds at same time, hence its used for desktop sounds, that dont wait after the music is doen [14:57] stefg but resizing means screwing the data right? [14:57] mosibfu but when i install esd alsa has to be removed! [14:58] how can I fix that suspend2ram only works once??? [14:58] the_fish: Is there a reason why you didnt install ubuntu-desktop? [14:58] Yancho: gParted can do that... but you need a backup anyway. have some external disk to temporarily hold a backup image ? [14:58] Pici it was installed already. [14:58] nope :( [14:58] Yancho: about 10 G of free space on one of the win partitions ? [14:59] not sure its a small hdd === jaym is now known as jay__ [14:59] hmm [14:59] maybe some other nessecary files arent there. [15:00] Sipior: it is an internal SATA Drive with one huge ext3 partition on it, which stores most of my media (documents, music, video) on it. [15:00] the_fish i dont have a standalone install for esd, it came with gnome-media in ubuntu (the mixer and s) do u have the same repositories as me? [15:00] what files should i install? but usually when i install gnome sound srver is installed too [15:00] what benefits can i get from having ubuntu server be my firewall as opposed to a linksys router? [15:00] mosibfu i have trevinos ubuntu repo there [15:01] the others are default [15:01] Yancho: so you could fire up the Desktop CD and delete hda8 and add that space to hda7, that would be the simple short term solution. That /should/ work without data loss, but i've seen gParted destroy partitions more than once, so i wouldn't do without a backup [15:01] Dralid: easiest in that case simply to add "auto" to fstab. i don't know of a way to do this under gnome, et alia [15:01] hi guys [15:01] hi guys [15:01] but only eyecandy part of trevinos repo [15:01] stefg hmm ok .. then i guess buying a hdd is the option .. how are usb hdds ? [15:02] stefg are they easily installed on ubuntu ? [15:02] gnome media is installed. [15:02] okay, drat, but thanks, Sipior. [15:02] Yancho: once they are formatted they're autorecognized. but make sure you have USB 2.0, not USB 1.x ports [15:03] OO gnome-audio isnt installed is it nessecary deb? [15:03] stefg i have 1.x port :( [15:03] the_fish no i dont have it either [15:03] Yancho: then buy a USB 2.0 PCI card as well. These are cheap [15:03] gnome-desktop-environment? [15:04] hi everyone [15:04] stefg a usb2 hdd can work on usb2 if there is and usb1 if there isnt right? [15:04] Dralid: actually, if you look under the device listing with "Device Manager", it does allow you to modify the linux.fstab.options value. but this isn't really any different from just modifying /etc/fstab. but it is under gnome! :-) [15:04] can someone please tell me how to disable compiz on ubuntu 7.10 [15:04] i need to fall back to metacity [15:05] Yancho: USB 1.X is painfully slow .... you only have 12 Mbit/s bandwith, compared to 480 Mbit on usb 2.0 [15:05] wasn't ubuntu 7.10 supposed to be able to handle fallback automatically? [15:05] steff12345: how to quit it? or un install it [15:05] not uninstall [15:05] stefg true :) [15:05] just disable autostart for compiz [15:06] it makes my screen go white [15:06] or didn't bulletproofx get to 7.10? [15:06] Yancho: rather add another internal disk. is quicker and you can have a better partition layout to speed things up [15:06] the_fish dont have that.. :( so that wont be it either [15:06] hmm [15:06] stefg i needed an outer disk .. so was gonna take the excuse :) [15:06] we dont find the missing deb :( [15:07] what else could it be? [15:07] let me put it right: i need to autostart metacity instead of compiz [15:07] the_fish ubuntu-sounds? [15:07] hello ;D [15:08] hmm [15:08] installed [15:08] how do i download kubuntu? fromthe terminal? [15:08] 0 [15:08] but i told you already i have customised sounds and they play when i klick test [15:08] hmm [15:08] sudo apt-get install kubuntu [15:08] ? [15:08] or kubuntu-desktop [15:08] jazz_: kubuntu-desktop [15:08] MicrosoftSUX: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop [15:08] kubuntu-desktop jazz [15:08] lol [15:08] ;> [15:09] can someone please tell [15:10] is xchat-gnome shit? :x [15:10] no userlist [15:10] !language | jazz_ [15:10] jazz_: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly.

[15:12] i'm from belgium [15:12] Pici: my screen goes entirely white when i login to GNOME [15:12] and i guess its because oh compiz [15:12] steff12345: What video card do you have? Have you installed restricted drivers? [15:12] has there been a fix for the ati closed drivers adn teh suspend issue for gutsy? the whoel SLUB and SLAB deal? [15:12] nvidia [15:13] just installed the drivers from nvidia.com [15:13] (16:11:22) mosibfu: the_fish im checking installed files (all) now <-- ok [15:13] gah [15:13] im afk now [15:13] french people make many mistakes [15:13] steff12345: that's not a great idea, but anyway use the failsafe session to get into gnome [15:13] what a dumb name [15:13] I [15:13] !coc | idefix [15:13] idefix: The Ubuntu Code of Conduct to which we ask all Ubuntu users to adhere can be found at http://www.ubuntu.com/community/conduct/ [15:14] mkay, i'll try that [15:14] idefix: do you have a question?

[15:16] check winehq's appdb [15:16] i have a newly bought athlon 64 x2 and i installed ubuntu 7.10 64 version but iti seems like it full of glitches and my video card (NVIDIA) didn't had any problem in my older computer to run compiz. Should i install the normal version of ubuntu [15:17] bazhang: well it is supported... i mean i found it with ifconfig and dmesg | grep ipw2200 but network-manager cant find any network even near free hot-spot [15:17] when one is installing grub to usb or floppy with the installer - are we talking about selecting the floppyin advanced options, before the install begins? [15:17] idefix: it's not a command, it's english. appdb.winehq.org/ [15:17] anyone good with tcl? I'm trying to find an equivalent way of telling tcl to act like bash with IFS=$'\n' [15:17] krisbo9000: right [15:17] i have tried to do this and it does not read the floppy. is it supposed to be in ()? [15:17] BcBcLenkaSchaffe: have you tried using the terminal?

[15:18] I know this isnt an ubuntu question, but i asked on #bitchx and there arent but 3 or 4 users there and none reply, so.. does anyone know how to save aliases in bitchx? [15:18] a new version for the nvidia-glx driver is released on ubuntu repos. how can i find what bugs does this version fixes?? [15:18] bazhang: you mean to search for available networks with terminal? how do i do that? [15:18] arghh2d2: it's /save in irssi. Try that [15:18] BcBcLenkaSchaffe: sudo iwlist (cardname) scanning [15:18] gibobo i can say, standard ubuntu works fine on amd x2, even with SLI, havent tried the 64 bit version here yet [15:19] krisbo9000: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto has all info you need [15:19] [Gnome] Zur Bedienung von System > Systemverwaltung > Systemprotokoll > syslog.

Is there some good tutorials to read? [15:31] isn't network manager supposed to give the option to remember the keyring password in gutsy? [15:31] sjoerd yeah i dont care too much about it [15:32] Ballena: There are guides on the forums and Wiki [15:32] 0 [15:32] i just miss sid [15:32] nope, didn't work [15:32] Snuxoll: ok, thanks [15:32] what is the name of the new ubuntu dev branch ?? [15:32] jerbear: yeah, don't know where that went, but it doesn't work for me either anymore [15:32] Hi all--I upgraded to gutsy, I used to use beryl on another laptop, but when I make my selections in Advanced Desktop Effects Settings, nothing activates, no rotating cube, no windows effects... what am I doing wrong? [15:32] Ballena: The only special app you need is Boot Camp [15:32] jrib: Sorry [15:32] Where is the option to enable/disable grouping all similar windows in the panel? [15:32] anyone care to help old ricojay? im lost, how can i access my files on my Windows XP. Any idea?? [15:32] srdgame: try #vbox [15:32] jamiejackson: has it ever worked for you in gutsy? [15:32] Snuxoll: ok, i thaought that boot camp was for windows installs only [15:32] jrib: is it safe to delete /var/log automatically upon shutdown? [15:33] dak: Hardy Heron is the next version of Ubuntu. We dont have a rolling dev branch like Debian does.

[15:33] ahh [15:33] hrm [15:33] jamiejackson: i did use libpam-keyring in feisty, but that package isn't available in gutsy [15:33] boontoo: I don't know [15:33] * stefg asks himself why every one is asking for *simple* solutions for complex tasks... like: Does anyone have a *simple* howto on a solution to save the planet :-) [15:33] RicoJay: well, does these files live on an internal disk, or on another machine? [15:33] Snuxoll: i'm still having the same problem [15:33] jerbear: it seems very sketchy, and it usually does not remember the password [15:33] but hardy will be updated a bit like debian testing ? [15:33] Ballena: Boot Camp is nothing but an EFI extension to allow stuff to boot in BIOS compatibility mode, nothing windows specific (except the drivers) [15:33] zechs: you need to uninstall all beryl and compiz packages and reinstall the offical ones [15:33] stefg: kill the humans is simple no? [15:33] sipior: geeze, i have it in my internal disk [15:33] jerbear: i haven't bothered to investigate besides my unanswered question here a while ago [15:34] jrib: indeed... got a howto -link ?

Since it's most comon that you install Ubuntu on a PC [15:34] pici ? [15:34] it's not default though [15:34] mavi--the compiz things came by default, I need to uninstall those? Official packages meaning those not from synaptic? [15:34] srdgame: yep, do: /join #vbox === Tomek- is now known as Tomek [15:34] jrib: thanks ^_^ [15:35] jamiejackson: i've scoured the forums and google with no solution... seems a bit ridiculous that such a common feature could be so utterly broken [15:35] zechs: sure, uninstall eveything with compiz or beryl in the name [15:35] dak: Not really, I'd say its completely different from debians releases. [15:35] RicoJay: then you should be able to mount the partition directly. try "mount -t ntfs /dev/sda1 /media", with the appropriate subsititution, of course [15:35] sipior: are you cool dude? i need to locate my programs on my windows xp so that i can run it on wine [15:35] Snuxoll: dark gray is the name [15:35] !w32codecs [15:35] A bit of an Ubuntu/Linux rookie here. I've searched all around Google and the Ubuntu forums not finding any clear answer and was wondering if someone could point me in the right direction concerning getting Compiz working on 7.10 and a VisionTek (ATI) X1300? Thanks in advance. [15:35] Seveas has a popular 3rd party repository for several packages, including the win32 codecs: see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - See also !Codecs [15:35] Ballena: The new intel iMacs are no different than normal PC's, they have x86 chips, standard video cards and chipsets, nothing that would make it any different [15:35] zechs: then install compiz again, double-check that you dont have any 3rd part repos in your sources [15:35] RicoJay: am i cool? of course i am. [15:35] Snuxoll: ok, that's awesome. [15:35] sipior: thanks, so any idea how to run it on wine. im a newbie [15:35] Snuxoll: thanks for help [15:35] dak: Take a look at the releases section of this: http://www.ubuntu.com/community/ubuntustory/debian [15:35] slasher: Does it do this on any othe theme [15:36] Ballena: no poblem, it's what we're here for [15:36] Spherion: are you using the open source drivers or restricted? [15:36] cool [15:36] I jsut installed apache2 with Mod_python ..

[15:36] reinstalled* [15:36] Snuxoll: i assume with any that would specify a panel bg, actually do you know where the theme manager extracts themes to when they're installed? [15:36] been looking for a page like that for a while [15:36] sipior: how do i brows files to run it on wine??? [15:37] hello :-) [15:37] hi ho :-) [15:37] slasher: ~/.themes [15:37] Snuxoll: thanks i'm just gonna delete the bg image [15:37] riotkittie: Basic/open source, which if course won't let me enable any enchancements. If I try to use the restricted it won't boot back in to the desktop environment. [15:37] RicoJay: most of the wine install guides i've seen recommend a local install, instead of running binaries from a mounted windows partition. you might try copying your files to your linux home directory, and reinstalling any needed apps via wine [15:37] slasher: You can just edit the themes .gtkrc and comment out the BG image... [15:38] I was wondering. do I need a domain name to have a personal server [15:38] ? [15:38] i have a problem with a md (raid-1) i have one disk from an old raid. how can i get the data? [15:38] jrib: they told me that it does not support 64 guests [15:38] Snuxoll: that sounds good too, thanks [15:38] lexis_nexus: Do you need to access it outside your house? [15:38] slasher: np :) [15:38] lexis_nexus: it is not required [15:38] lexis nexus: No. [15:38] sipior: okj, my installer is not on my drive c:, its on my other partition so, how can run it on wine?? [15:38] thanks [15:38] i tried to get my other HDD to automount by adding /dev/sdb1 to fstab but now it doesn't even show up in the computer [15:38] I need the library stdlib in gcc [15:38] what to do? can't find it in the repos [15:39] sharpie: Where are you mounting the drive? [15:39] Snuxoll: /media/sdb1 [15:39] also, do I need to a have specific static ip for the server or can it be anything of my choosing [15:39] ? [15:39] anyone have a solution for making network-manager not prompt for the keyring password?? [15:39] has anyone got any idea which package pam_unix2 is in on gutsy? I used to use this module to authenticate against Active Directory on Feisty, but can't find pam_unix2 on gutsy to install :'( [15:39] lexis_nexus: is yoru personal webserver gonan be on the internet? [15:39] RicoJay: you'd have to modify your wine config file to include that drive partition [15:39] im assisting in three kubuntu installations at the moment.. one using wubi - one from cd [15:39] no [15:39] sharpie: cd into /media and see if there is a sdb1 directory please [15:39] list [15:39] sipior: ok, how? [15:39] Snuxoll: nope [15:40] I'm trying to create a home network [15:40] sipior: winecfg right? [15:40] with my comp being the server [15:40] RicoJay: perhaps you should hop onto #winehq, and ask them directly [15:40] sharpie: You can't mount drives into folders that don't exist, make a sdb1 folder under /media and your drive will mount fine [15:40] hi friends [15:40] Spherion: try launching compiz from a terminal - !paste your output. [15:40] jamiejackosn [15:40] !paste | Spherion [15:40] Spherion: 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) [15:40] anyone have a solution for making network-manager not prompt for the keyring password?? [15:40] Snuxoll: cd /media -> mkdir sdb1 right? [15:40] thanks sipior: ur cool, ur the man [15:41] sharpie: youll need to sudo the mkdir, but yes [15:41] ok I cannot seem to get images in zoneminder on ubuntu gutsy , i have checked the cams using camorama and they work good any ideas? [15:41] uh, okay [15:41] I've tried to setup a server for a while but I'm to much of a noob [15:41] * sipior shrugs his shoulders [15:41] i want to right click my menu to add/edit launchers. possible? if so, how? [15:41] Snuxoll: ok i made the dir, hope it works, thanks [15:41] riotkittie: Will give that a shot, however I'm at work at the moment so it will be later this evening before I'll be able to try anything. Just trying to get some info now. Thanks for the advice. [15:41] hi! I use the nvidia control panel to adjust my monitors colors (it's old and I can't align the colors there). I managed to make the changes work on system start. but everytime I use synaptic the settings get reset. How do I make the settings work even with/after synaptic? [15:41] sharpie: You can test it, sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /media/sdb1 [15:42] I tried reading tut's on how to set a server but to no avail [15:42] ok, obviously there are people here who use gutsy + a laptop, how do you deal with the password prompts? [15:42] Snuxoll: um, i did it but it doesn't appear in computer [15:42] jerbear: most people type their passwords in [15:42] Spherion: the only thing that i can think offhand is that your card might be blacklisted. but i dunno. [15:42] Hi, has anyone got any idea which package pam_unix2 is in on gutsy? I used to use this module to authenticate against Active Directory on Feisty, but can't find pam_unix2 in gutsy to install :'-( [15:43] sharpie: any drive not mounted by GNOME's volume manager doesn't appear in it's "Computer" [15:43] sharpie: But it's there if you browse /media [15:43] misterdash: libpam-unix2? [15:43] is there anyone who used libpam-keyring in feisty? are you not annoyed that gutsy has completely broken this functionality? [15:43] Snuxoll: will it appear after a restart? [15:43] Spherion: you might want to try launching it from a term with compiz SKIP_CHECKS=yes [if it is a blacklist, that will override it temporarily] [15:43] is ubuntu suitable as a programmer's machine... [15:43] ? [15:43] ScriptDevil: why wouldn't it be? [15:43] i program web stuff on ubuntu [15:43] sharpie: Probably not [15:44] ScriptDevil: I guess that depends on what your language and/or IDE of choice is [15:44] sipior: had a really bad day with opensuse [15:44] After one of the latest updates i cant watch xvid/divx coded movies, i just hear the sound. Could anyone please help me? [15:44] Snuxoll: oh. is there any way to make it appear there? =o [15:44] i think it's a bit strange that i am given the option to remember the keyring password for other things, but not for network manager... [15:44] ScriptDevil: oh, i hear ya there... [15:44] ScriptDevil: I develop ruby code all the time on Ubuntu [15:44] ubuntu's pretty far out of date on it's deb of eclipse, but you can install it yourself, if that's yoru ide [15:44] akince1: haskell, ruby, c++, java, emacs, eclipse(i use the cvs version. wont need the package for that) [15:44] Snuxoll: or, like, on the desktop [15:44] sharpie: Not that I know of, but you can browse /media and drag the folder to your sidebar and make a bookmark for it [15:45] ScriptDevil: I'd say you should be fine then. [15:45] Snuxoll: i'll make a desktop shortcut if it won't appear there [15:45] :) [15:45] Snuxoll: anyway, thx for your help [15:45] sharpie: No problem [15:45] bye everyone =o [15:45] okie... i was to install freebsd, but sadly my dg33fb ide controller was not recognized [15:45] I need gcc-multilib, what repos is it in? [15:45] anyone know how to fix zoneminder broken images ? [15:45] anyway... looks like ubuntu will suffice :) [15:45] Could someone please help a newbie out, after one of the recent updates I can no longer watch video, i just hear the sound. [15:45] bye sharppis [15:45] can i just install libpam-keyring package from feisty? will that work? [15:46] acateoN: which file type? [15:46] ScriptDevil: avi [15:46] riaal_: main [15:46] Script: You can add a plethora of development tools pretty easily and certainly compile any you can't find unless there is a known issue with current Linux kernels and such [15:46] hmmm.. try installing a suitable xvid codec [15:47] Pici, can't find it :'( [15:47] riaal_: What version of Ubuntu?

FF but it didnt work either.. [15:48] anyone have experience with zoneminder [15:48] riaal_: Doesnt look like its in fiesty. [15:48] @Pici : That's the badger, don't know how I missed it this time around - thanks a lot :-) [15:48] is this issue with network manager even recognized as a problem?

[15:51] _6StringKng_: win32 codecs? am not sure what it is called on ubuntu [15:51] jerbear: why don't you read the whole thing first? [15:51] first I tried to use synaptic, to install blackdown, which froze when the install script tried to ask me to click ok on a Sun license agreement [15:51] slashem, use the Ubuntu Restricted Extras package to handle the messy details for you [15:51] <_6StringKng_> yeah I remember getting that for older distros [15:51] HI [15:51] how can i install xcb on 7.10??? [15:52] I got a problems i keep getting a pink screen [15:52] ScriptDevil: No problem ; ) Well, it did! Untill yesterday when they rolled out some new updates. After that theres just sound, but the "system" creates thumbnails of the videofiles so it must be able to render them after all? [15:52] Cool: pink screen on compiz? [15:52] kjhjkg: you can't ... [15:52] jrib: you know that touch command, is there anyway to do it automatically to your entire system [15:52] there was a program for windows to do it [15:52] sipior: i did... it says that it is integrated into gutsy, but it's not working [15:53] Cool: Sounds like a hardware problem, are you sure that your monitor is plugged in securely? [15:53] jerbear: then file a bug report [15:53] acateoN: yeah.. it must be... i cant figure it out.. does it play any other file type too.. i mean say .flv [15:53] jesus christ [15:53] Pici ya [15:53] slashem: Applications > Add/Remove and then make sure the Show: section at the top says "All available option". Do a search for "flash" and it should pop up in the list as "Ubuntu restricted extras" [15:53] jerbear: yes? [15:53] Cool: when do you get the pink screen? [15:53] I don't see an applications menu [15:53] Pici: i am super sure my xp work find i can boot i can load but after that it gone pink [15:53] ubuntu-restricted-extras?

[15:55] I'm old-skool [15:55] in root [15:55] ScriptDevil, so it's better to set it at 1024 to use as much space as possible right ? [15:55] acateoN: .. lol... find another gf.. that is better than Widnows [15:55] *Windows [15:56] what is the problem ?? [15:56] Devyll: actually i am not too sure.. but stick to the default.. [15:56] anyone have a solution for making network-manager not prompt for the keyring password?? [15:56] ScriptDevil: haha I sadly love her more than linux................ (almost) *caugh* [15:56] I am close to getting my ubunto 6.06 apache 2.055 box running but I am stuck. can someone give me a little help? [15:56] k thx [15:56] any one help please [15:57] :-):-(please [15:57] xvoltage: I have apache running on my machine, but didn't have problems, but I'll try and help, whats been happening? [15:57] acateoN: i know how it feels.. i just had a huge blow... a good friend who avoids me because i asked her out... anyway... before we get too off-topic, download a small clip of wmv or anything else and play it [15:57] jerbear: is this the bug report you were referring to: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/16356 === jay_work|out is now known as jay___ [15:57] Thanks HankDogDaddy, It's been a long time since I have set one up but I'll tell you where I am at... [15:58] Ok what ever i will try on other pc [15:58] ok I'm still getting the same error -- my package is in some kind of inconsistent state, how do I reset it? [15:58] Cool: what is your video card// [15:58] [Gnome] Usage of System > System Administration > System log > System log viewer > syslog. As a default I see the log of today. Clicking on the yesterday date in the calendar (lower left)(13th November), will highlight the 13 but Ubuntu does not show the syslog of the 13th. Why not? [15:58] Everything that comes with LAMPS is installed and I can see that apache is up and running on my lan (Although I can't ping my server only type it's IP in the address bar) [15:58] slashem: I'm not sure what you have to do there. [15:58] sipior: one of them, yes... but "common-pamkeyring" is not available in gutsy. this was a pam include file that came with libpam-keyring [15:58] ScriptDevil: lifes a bitch some times... ; ) Im trying a .flv file out as we speek, ill get back to you with the results [15:59] hold on let me try to upgrade everything [15:59] is fluxbuntu an official ubuntu? like k, edu and x [15:59] Are you installing it on a server that is seperate than your desktop machine? [15:59] but I can't figure out how to tell apache2 to load my site from /usr/web [15:59] yep it's an older pc [16:00] ScriptDevil: nope, the .flv file didnt work either [16:00] ok, and what happens when you type the ip address of your server into the browser? [16:00] ScriptDevil: just sound.. [16:00] jerbear: it doesn't say anything about requiring common-pamkeyring, that i can see. i assume the solution that is given in the forum thread linked to in the bug report didn't work? [16:00] <_polto_> pls, do someone have an idea about what script rewrite my /etc/network/interfaces during boot on LiveDVD ? [16:00] sipior: yes [16:00] acateoN: hmmm.. funny... [16:00] index of / and shows link to apache2-default [16:00] ScriptDevil: no not really... [16:01] xvoltage: I'm pretty sure apache2's default location to store files is /var/www/, not usr/web [16:01] acateoN: yeah... :( wait.. will look at the mailing lists of mplayer [16:01] ScriptDevil: ok, thx [16:01] so, you will have to store your .html and .php files in var/www [16:01] yeah your right, want to be able to change that though [16:01] oh, I see [16:01] let me try that though for a test [16:02] jerbear: and you've removed libpam-keyring? === neversfelde_ is now known as neversfelde [16:02] sipior: removed it? [16:02] jerbear: it is no longer required, and is in fact probably causing your difficulties [16:02] xvoltage: Ahh, I've done that before, now I just usr /var/www/, let me look for sec.... [16:03] sipior: it's a virtual package and doesn't actually install anything [16:03] np [16:03] making a test .html in my www dir [16:03] jerbear: i would recommend trying a fresh install; i suspect your problem will vanish [16:03] sipior: it is a fresh install [16:04] acateoN: i did this back in lfs days.. may work for you... try changing the video driver to x!! [16:04] *x11 [16:04] haha, well that works [16:04] jerbear: and you don't get the check box to automatically unlock your keyring? [16:04] now just to change the path [16:04] sipior: no [16:04] ScriptDevil: ok, ill give it a shot if you please tell me how to do it : ) [16:04] jerbear: then you best file another bug report [16:04] hi I just installed the nvidia drivers on a laptop and after restart, the screen is black. is there a way I can disable the drivers?

[16:04] (running Gutsy) [16:05] acateoN: do you have gmplayer? [16:05] davidwinter you might want to try renaming /etc/X11/xorg.conf to force it back to default config. [16:05] ScriptDevil: I do not.

[16:08] CruX: what are you looking for precisely? [16:08] Svish use find with exec [16:08] Where it says Document Root or Directory? or both? [16:08] ScriptDevil: hang on [16:08] LjL: newest avidemux [16:08] If you need some help, I can try to craft a command for you [16:08] akince1: could you explain that a bit further? exec? [16:08] * N3bunel saluta [16:08] Sure, give me a sec to craft an example for you [16:08] ScriptDevil: Isnt mplayer "movie player" ? [16:08] xvoltage: I would look into this thread for more details.. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=18964 [16:09] acateoN: that is totem [16:09] mplayer is mplayer [16:09] CruX: don't know. it doesn't appear to be in medibuntu [16:09] ScriptDevil: Which mean ? : O ) [16:10] ScriptDevil: I have something called movie player installed [16:10] akince1: that would be great :) [16:10] I'll give her a gander, you've been super helpful [16:10] acateoN: it is a different software [16:10] acateoN: that is totem movie player [16:10] ScriptDevil: aha, ill apt get mplayer then [16:10] Hopefully that works, but it looks like everything you need to change is in the file [16:10] good luck [16:10] acateoN: do it! [16:11] how can I figure out what modules were compiled w/ the generic i386 kernel? [16:11] lsmod [16:11] ScriptDevil: Done, and its sound only there too..

[16:12] hi guys. when i type cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/cpuinfo_min_freq i get 800000. I have an amd turion 64 1,8 Ghz...can i get a frequency lower than 800000 under linux?(With win xp i can get 450000). now i'm using powernow-k8 driver...please help! [16:12] Svish: that should do it. you might try a test directory with junk files first [16:12] acateoN: use the X11 driver [16:13] is the httpd.conf file used anymore or just the apache2.conf? [16:13] Svish: extra important: that root directory was mean to suggest you use the path of the directory you want to delete files form [16:13] ScriptDevil: Fast is my middle name... What do i write or do to change to that driver ? [16:13] from [16:13] [Gnome] Usage of System > System Administration > System log > System log viewer > syslog. As a default I see the log of today. Clicking on the yesterday date in the calendar (lower left)(13th November), will highlight the 13 but Ubuntu does not show the syslog of the 13th. Why not? [16:14] Svish: did that make sense to you? [16:14] acateoN: switch between various drivers and see which gives you video [16:14] xvoltage: I believe the httpd file is mainly used to add modules and such [16:14] right on. [16:14] ScriptDevil: yes sir, but i wonder how i do the actual switch [16:15] xvoltage: for example, when I installed php, the php was not loaded by default and I had to enable the php module in there. Just had to do that this morning actually [16:15] now if I can just get around my ISP blocking port 80 [16:15] is there a document detailing the gnome startup procedure, so i can figure out why evolution keeps starting even though it's not listed in startup programs, or in my saved session [16:15] ScriptDevil: -vo x11 ? [16:16] xvoltage: Yeah, I got really lucky with that, from what I can tell, besides a "Users are not allowed to have home servers" quote on their webpage, my isp does not block any ports. Not FTP, SSH, or web [16:16] Svish: Still with us? [16:16] Bribles: the calendar applet is a hook into subversion [16:16] xvoltage: Guess thats an advantage of living in Iowa, they figure us aint to dog gone tech savy [16:16] akince1: hey, yeah, sorry, hehe. just had to find all your messages :p [16:16] lol [16:17] Svish: Make sure you use the path to your target directory. You can us * as a wildcard [16:17] bullgard4: i assume because the log entries for that date have already been rotated out to syslog.0, syslog.1.gz, etc. [16:17] 有中国的用户吗？ [16:17] acateoN: YEAH [16:17] You can also use many other commands in place of rm if, for example, you want to move a bunch of file to another directory [16:18] !zh | chenyonglin [16:18] So for example: find . -name '*DS_Store' -exec rm {} \; ? [16:18] chenyonglin: For Ubuntu help in Chinese 您可以访问中文频道： #ubuntu-cn 或者 #ubuntu-tw 或者 #ubuntu-hk [16:18] fyrestrtr: so using the default calendar applet requires the use of evolution? or can this (evol usage, not cal entirely) be disabled? [16:18] bullgard4: i agree that the calendar is slightly misleading: it only allows you to filter on those log events which occur on that date *in the main logfile* [16:18] sipior: I see you point. But I do not accept. [16:18] akince1: or what is the last {} and \ for? [16:18] bullgard4: you could turn off log rotation, or lengthen the period, which would help [16:18] Svish: I think that should work. I usually use the full path so I don't screw up [16:18] hehe, ok [16:18] bullgard4: sorry, do not accept what? [16:19] Svish: The {} \; just directs the file path to the target command. In your case, rm [16:19] ScriptDevil: If its all done after that i didn't make much of a difference : / [16:19] akince1: should try just find first maybe and see what it lists :p [16:19] so think of it as #rm (insert one at a time the full file path resulting from find file by file) [16:19] sipior: Your statement of 17:17 h. [16:19] HankDogDaddy how would I go about uploading files to this bad boy? [16:19] ScriptDevil: I pressed enter and then tried opening it with mplayer, same as before just sound. [16:19] acateoN: play the file with mplayer [16:19] I don't think FTP is setup [16:19] bullgard4: sorry, i don't do timestamps :) [16:20] acateoN: mplayer Desp-Housewives-V03.avi [16:20] sipior: one second. [16:20] Svish: You can certainly do that to convince yourself you are doing the right thing [16:20] xvoltage: There are a couple ways you can do that. The harder to setup but easier to perform method is to setup a samba server. The easier method, is to install openssh on the server, and then use filezilla to connect to it [16:20] How do you compile and install a kernel module source package from the repository? [16:21] ScriptDevil: okey, im on it [16:21] openssh seems like a safe bet from what I have been reading [16:21] jack_: with module assistant [16:21] Svish: You will find that if the find command you are using produces a lot of files, the process could be very slow [16:22] I'd like to search launchpad for bugs in the packages virtualbox-ose and virtualbox-ose-modules. How do i do that? Just searching for virtualbox under bugs "kind of" works, but it also lists a lot of unrelated bugs. [16:22] fyrestrtr: I've downloaded the ov51x-jpeg-source package, what command would I run to get module assistant to build it for me? [16:22] acateoN: works??? [16:22] I've come accross some problems upgrading to 7.10, whilst i was updating i had several errors about packages being unable to update and now when i run "aptitude upgrade" i get the first error on this: http://pastey.net/77169 When i try to run "aptitude install semantic" to force it to upgrade that fails with the seccond error. [16:22] <_polto_> pls, do someone have an idea about what script rewrite my /etc/network/interfaces during boot on LiveDVD ? [16:22] so i'd like to specify the package and launchpad doesn't seem to let me [16:22] akince1: it listed the correct files. but when I try to add -exec rm {}\; on the back, I get find: missing argment to '-exec' [16:22] ScriptDevil: the sound works : ) [16:22] my country that i reside in doesn't limit encryption to any bit, is there any software out there than can provide more than a measily 1024bit ? [16:22] moonlite: just open those package's pages, click the bugs tab and then search. If you need any other help ask in #launchpad. [16:22] xvoltage: Just install ssh on the server like this [16:23] ScriptDevil: not much else [16:23] xvoltage: apt-get install ssh openssh-server [16:23] Svish: Put your command up here.

[17:46] or the pictures for all the picture screensavers [17:46] Mine frequently disconnects if some one calls and although thats not likely at night what is some one does? [17:46] does anyone know if there is a virtualbox IRC channel? [17:46] sandaru1: ok I did it but still no wifi [17:46] marybuntu_: Well, to use the cube Alt+Crtl and your mouse should make it work [17:46] lemme see if it sees it in devices [17:46] Pollywog: #vbox [17:47] Pici: ty [17:47] Hello, someone know Postfix in order to made a proxy mail? [17:47] any ideas on how to show current song title (xmms) on panel? [17:47] VertexOfLife: hmmmm, not sure i understand [17:47] how do I reinstall perl without threads using apt or dpkg? [17:47] marybuntu_: Personally, I have Cube Caps for prettiness, Wobbly Windows, Application Switcher and Cube Gears [17:47] no wireless showing in wicd or in network settings [17:47] marybuntu_: Try holding Alt+Crtl and moving your mouse around. You should see a cube now [17:48] How do you record stuff from tapes using Audacity?! I can't get it to record the music from the sound card into waveforms, even though it plays fine through the computer speakers...!!!! [17:48] lunartear: as far as i know.. there is no way. you'll have to compile manually with configure option. [17:48] compiz-fusion is a waste [17:48] I found yself not really using it at all. [17:48] sandaru1, erm. ok [17:48] anyone have a good reference for getting dual head working on a radeon? [17:48] <_Ulver_> anyone here can help me in with a basic problem? How can I link a part of a Writer document to another part of this same document? I mean, how can I create a hyperlink a Writer document inside itself (without internet connection)? [17:48] VertexOfLife: Ctrl+Alt+middle mouse button [17:48] I got it working, but only as one extended framebuffer [17:48] stoodleysnow: use this attached to audacity www.reaper.fm [17:48] bdodson, you take to chicks and have them start blowing the board [17:49] Whitor, I use Right mouse button [17:49] that easy huh? [17:49] !offtopic | mike3_ [17:49] mike3_: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! [17:49] any ideas on how to show current song title (xmms) on panel? [17:50] I'm on Ubuntu Gutsy, not (shudder) Window$ [17:50] <_Ulver_> hi365, I'm not sure but there is on synaptic a package to this feature [17:50] stoodleysnow, i think you slipped... did you mean windows? [17:50] hmm, that. [17:50] stoodleysnow: me too [17:50] _Ulver_: i installed xcfe-xmms which is supposed to do it - but i cant figure out how to add it to the panel (when i rigck click and click add its not there!) [17:51] the jacklab guys made this WineASIO thing that will let you run TONS of audio stuff in linux [17:51] then why are you asking me to download a windows prog [17:51] even correctly made VST's sometimes [17:51] Im only installing linux to test reaper in it [17:51] marybuntu_: If that dosen't work, press alt+f2 and then type compiz --replace . Then try again. [17:51] do you not have qjacktl? [17:51] probably not [17:51] hold on stoodleysnow lemme get the page Im following [17:52] http://www.davehayes.org/2007/04/27/howto-reaper-on-ubuntu-linux-with-wineasio/ [17:52] wine asio lets you use a lot more soundcards too [17:52] I saw a few videos on youtube of JAD and jacklab guys running all sorts of vst's [17:52] Can't I just record using Open Source stuff like Audacity? [17:53] yeah, its not so good for that though, audacity is more of an editor [17:53] but reaper is unexpiring shareware, its not crippled in anyway [17:53] what does the module ieee1394ohci do? [17:53] its "honorware" [17:54] 1394 = firewire [17:54] stoodleysnow: of course you can [17:54] How to i add 2 ips to one device, ive tried iface eth1:1 inet static (conf)... But it doesnt work [17:54] the trick is to have audacity in the reaper right click menu because audacity can be an easier editor [17:54] Andycass1: that looks about right [17:54] It used to be fine with microphone recording; anyone a little less one-product-minded available(no offence pipelineaudio) [17:54] ? [17:54] audacity is going to be your best bet [17:55] can anyone tell me what this means "ze limit exceeded (core dumped)" just after using unrar on a 3.5GB file [17:55] hi guys.... I'm trying to print a word file from a windows machine to a ubuntu networked printer [17:55] yes.. 1394 is for firewire... and what is ohci ?? [17:55] however....the file is garbled [17:55] any ideas? [17:55] Right. so how do I get it to actually record? [17:55] googling ieee1394ohci doesn't give good results [17:55] actually did they get wavosaur running in linux? [17:55] THAT would be perfect [17:55] XXer: what's your swap drive size? [17:56] Dont know? [17:56] Hello, someone know Postif it's for made a proxy mail [17:56] ok i have searched the linux mint ubuntu and linuxquestions forums google and others for the last few hours with no luck ... question how do i disable that login prompt when i open the door on my laptop? [17:56] XXer: df -h [17:56] How do I find out [17:56] ok [17:56] pcdoc963: look in system->Administration->Login Window [17:57] stoodleysnow: do you want it to be open source so you can mod it? [17:57] pcdoc963: in "Security" check "Enable Automatic Login" [17:57] i did gordonjcp and thers isn't a option for it [17:57] Can I have a list of all possible modules that I can modprobe?? [17:57] because it would likely be quicker to mod audacity to record easier, than to try and figure out how to record in it [17:57] gordonjcp: thats gor gdm not the laptop door [17:57] that would actually be very cool [17:57] At the moment I'm playing a tape on my hifi, through a 3.5mm jack lead into the line in of my built in sound. It plays through the speakers, but neither audacity nor sound recorder are recording anything. [17:57] pcdoc963: I don't know what you mean by "laptop door" [17:58] <_Ulver_> hi365, i think you need to search something like 'xmms-libnotify', right? On audacious we can show panel notification enabling this plugin [17:58] pipelineaudio; not ecessarily, but so that others maybe can. FREEDOM, you se [17:58] stoodleysnow: lots of audacity users at #jacklab [17:58] what apt repository do i need to install apache? [17:58] well, reaper is uncrippled, unexpiring shareware [17:58] gordonjcp: when i close the laptop door i have it set to blank screen but when i reopen the door it has a login prompt [17:58] er, ok [17:58] the philanthropic goals of its author, the creator of gnutella are pretty well known === Elvis is now known as __Elvis__ [17:59] pcdoc963: ah, screensaver password? [17:59] but Id check #jacklab [17:59] hello [17:59] hey guys, i am trying to compile an application. ./configure went well, and it created a ./compile which takes some arguements. but i dont know how to use this file... can somebody givem me a hint? [17:59] thats disabled [17:59] marybuntu_: Welcome back. Any luck? [17:59] which one is the swap [17:59] Ok I got my 2 IPs working, how do I tell firefox to use the right one? [17:59] qos: what are you trying to build [17:59] Andycass1: routing [17:59] how do i route? [18:00] <__Elvis__> Hello! I'm running on Ubuntu 7.10. I use Pidgin to communicate with my friends, but it seems, that Pidgin have a troubles with Ciryllic font (Win-1251). Can you help me? [18:00] Andycass1: you have 2 ipaddresses, you'll have to add a default route using the ip address you want [18:00] ikonia, kryptpad ... i can paste the compile file [18:00] Andycass1: Check out the `man route` [18:00] qos: the "compile" file ? [18:00] i just want to remove that login promt when i open the laptop door i already have gdm set to autologin and the screensaver disabled [18:00] this would be perfect if it runs in wine asio http://www.wavosaur.com/ [18:00] now i installed ies4linex but i can't know how to it;s work [18:00] Is there a particular readon that I cannot install apache2 with mpm_worker and php5 at the same time? [18:00] now i installed ies4linex but i can't know how to it;s work [18:00] ikonia, it was created by ./configure... [18:00] XXer: sorry.. seems like swap is not shown in there.. try "sud fdisk -l /dev/sdx" [18:01] So i should use "route badip goodip" [18:01] qos: speak to the developers of that package or use the readme/install instructions [18:01] Andycass1: no [18:01] pcdoc963: I think the script /etc/acpi/lid.sh is what's responsible for the screensaver getting started anyway. [18:01] Heh, thought so.. [18:01] ankit: should be a symlink in your home dir now. try like opening a term and typeing ./ie and hit tab or cd bin and ./ie and hit tab i havent used it myself [18:01] qos: didn't ./configure created a makefile? [18:01] i'll check soundray thanks [18:02] Hey, all. Can a group already in /etc/group be a member of another group? [18:02] VertexOfLife: behaving quirky, still can't get cube to display even tho it's enabled... i guess i need to have something open on each of the four desktops for it to render, right? but i tried, for example, to launch open office draw on the fourth desktop, and it opens, but back on the FIRST desktop! [18:02] sandaru1, ikonia take a look at this: http://de.pastebin.ca/773637 [18:02] My apt is totally screwed. During upgrading to 7.10, whilst i was updating i had several errors about packages being unable to update and now when i run "aptitude upgrade" i get the first error on this: http://pastey.net/77169 When i try to run "aptitude install semantic" to force it to upgrade that fails with the seccond error. Also i cant seem to install anything via apt as i dies on this semi-configured / broken packages [18:02] marybuntu_: Okay [18:02] ankit: look in your Applications menu under Other. The ies4linux installer puts stuff there, if I recall caorrectly./ [18:02] sandaru1, it did but is does nothing [18:02] marybuntu_: Press alt+F2 and type compiz --replace [18:02] *correctly [18:03] I often experience ALSA locking up completely in some program, thus making all other programs unable to play audio before that specific program is killed - that program itself also cannot play audio. As of now, this has been experienced with; Skype, MPD (Music Player Daemon), Firefox, Pidgin, Elisa and even mplayer. Is this a known bug or am I a really unfortunate bloke? had this always on Ubuntu (started with it at 4.something so it's an old bug [18:03] Kaso: sudo apt-get -f install [18:03] qos: that looks like a makefile, however I suggest you speak to the developers or read the install docs as this is nothing to do with ubuntu [18:03] sandaru1, it just mentions: "make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop." === _etotheip is now known as etotheipi [18:03] marybuntu_: Compiz+OpenOffice is a bit buggy so you might need to uninstall openoffice-gnome. It will make openoffice look ugly, but it is necessary to avoid it crashing [18:03] that didnt work ether [18:04] hej i have a problem with xine: [18:04] ya i look my application menu but here is not ies4linex [18:04] ikonia, i know. that was my second step. but i want to do it know because my freetime is very sparely and i thought somebody knows how to use these files ... [18:04] There is no demuxer plugin available to handle 'Epoq-Lepidoptera.ogg'. [18:04] Usually this means that the file format was not recognized. [18:04] any ideas? [18:04] The docs at http://www.tatanka.com.br/ies4linux/page/Installation:Ubuntu are badly out of date, but step 6 should still be accurate. Did you do that part? [18:04] qos: read the docs [18:04] XXer: you should replace x in "sdx" with your drive letter [18:04] qos: seems like ./configure uses this.. you don't have to run this manually [18:05] sandaru1 that fails also, "Errors were encountered while processing: emacs21, cedet-common, speedbar) [18:05] mr soundray thanks i know its in there but i'm not a programer and i know 100% i'll mess it up [18:05] qos: look at the INSTALL file [18:05] o got it [18:05] if you blew up the controller of your DVD can you just replace it or is that controller on some hardwarecard? [18:05] pcdoc963: make a backup, then you can always go back and you can experiment boldly ;) [18:06] Hi all, I'm having trouble writing to a floppy disk due to the lack of permissions, when I try to change the permissions, it keeps telling me its a read-only drive, any ideas? [18:06] Is it possible to install gutsy from a usb key and the internet ? [18:06] I would like to run a kernel with CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_DEBUG enabled. Do I have to compile the entire kernel, or is there an easier way? [18:06] what is /srv for? [18:06] I need to run openoffice as a conversion server program ... I can do this using the soffice binary and opening a port, but it keeps asking for an X server to be run ... how can I get this to work in ubuntu? [18:06] Why does Ubuntu love to mute ALSA? [18:06] Is there a way I could see the alt-ctrl-f1 screen with vnc? [18:06] soundray, use the -debug kernel? [18:06] i'll try .... this is gonna end badly lol [18:06] (because of cd drive broken) [18:06] corey check tab on disc [18:06] Kaso: try removing those package, cedet-contrib and cogre [18:06] diddy, it's in the unlocked pos. [18:07] maxagaz: if your comupter can boot from usb stick, it is possible [18:07] sandaru1, i think i just have to pass the right arguments [18:07] how do I find out what version of a package I have installed? [18:07] bardyr: cool, that's something I hadn't been aware of. Thanks! [18:07] Kaso: sudo apt-get remove cogre cedet-contrib [18:07] qos: read the docs [18:07] sleek: apt-cache policy packagename [18:07] ikonia, i did [18:07] Andycass1: no. [18:07] qos: what's the program? [18:07] qos: speak to the developers of that package [18:07] ikonia, i am very familiar with man pages and i am using linux for over 3 years [18:08] kinroad: I don't have usb stick but a usb hard drive actually, but I want to use it to install gutsy on the main hard drive of the laptop, where can I find some informations about it ? [18:08] corey, what is the file [18:08] qos: paste the makefile [18:08] sandaru1, a small editor with uses encryption [18:08] VertexOfLife: getting very strange behaviors, after i did alt/f2 and typed compiz --replace, my whole screen went blank and then i just got like the wallpaper up, no menus or anything showing, except the little lone cursor... i clicked it all over the desktop, and finally this screen came back up.... still no cube, tho, and still compiz manager doesn't appear in menu...\ [18:08] sandaru1, mom [18:08] Moduliz0r__: /srv is for files your computer can serve to itself and others. People can organise it how they want. Google "fhs" for more information. [18:08] diddy, it's a .nc file which is really a text filoe [18:08] file* [18:08] marybuntu_: it should appear under system->prefrences [18:08] Pici, Are you 100% sure? Thats a real bugger since i dont have a keyboard or mice connected to my linux box, in fact i dont have a monitor either [18:08] I need to go soon, fuse change [18:09] qos: this is ubuntu support, not general linux support [18:09] Andycass1: Use ssh then, not vnc. [18:09] !ssh | Andycass1 [18:09] Andycass1: SSH is the Secure SHell protocol. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto for usage. Putty is a nice SSH client for Windows; it can be found at http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ [18:09] hmmm, open office keeps requiring X to be available even when I try to run in -headless mode ... anyone able to help out? [18:09] kinroad: the info I found is to install gutsy on a usb key, not for installing gutsy from usb hard drive onto the main hard drive [18:09] marybuntu: did you upgrade to gusty or is it a fresh install? === Snuxoll is now known as chucknorris [18:09] marybuntu_: What compiz --replace does is replaces metacity which is default with compiz [18:09] marybuntu: if you ugrade to gusty you'll have to enable AiGLX from the xorg.conf file [18:09] VertexOfLife: nope, still not there ... this is a fresh install [18:09] sandaru1, http://de.pastebin.ca/773642 [18:09] marybuntu_: So you can do metacity --replace to return to metacity [18:09] ikonia, thanks ;) [18:10] qos: this is ubuntu support, not general linux support [18:10] what is /srv for? [18:10] guys how is it work ies4linex.i === chucknorris is now known as Snuxoll [18:10] VertexOfLife: huuuuhh??? [18:10] Moduliz0r__: I just answered your question. Scroll back...

Compiz --replace does the reverse [18:11] ankit: just curious, why do you need ie? [18:11] maxagaz: try this http://wiki.koeln.ccc.de/index.php?title=Ubuntu_USB_Install [18:11] sandaru1, it just stops because there is not target named "all" [18:11] I see, can I remove /srv? [18:11] It seems empty === Dator is now known as rambo3 [18:11] qos: - last request, please stop discussing this application. This channel is for ubuntu support only [18:11] marybuntu_: That is alt+f2 and type metacity or compiz --replace [18:11] !ot | qos [18:12] Hello, someone know Postif it's for made a proxy mail [18:12] qos: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter.

[18:12] Hi everyone! I'm having some trouble with gutsy (fresh install) running amule, it (amule) crashes everytime it tries to download the servers list, no matter how many times I reinstall it. This has probably being answered before, so can you guys just point me to the right manual or something, I'd be happy to RTFM (though I can't seem to find a quick logical explanation to it) [18:12] ok [18:12] 1.44GB (I used gparted) [18:12] VertexOfLife: so does that mean i just disabled compiz? [18:12] ubotu: Im stuck, if I can at least undo the damage wicd and http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=405990 did [18:12] XXer: hmm.. it should be enough i guess [18:12] ankit: Applications > Add/Remove, search for "wine" in "all packages". Then check Wine Windows Emulator, and install it. [18:12] if I can get back my ethernet maybe a friend can log in and help me [18:12] b-_: launch it from a terminal. see what output you get when it crashes. [18:12] ok, what is the lost+found folder for in my newly formatted drive? [18:12] marybuntu_: If you typed compiz --replace into alt+f2, no, you enabled it [18:13] ankit: then follow instruction 6 at http://www.tatanka.com.br/ies4linux/page/Installation:Ubuntu [18:13] Ijoin #ubuntu.de [18:13] riotkittie: ok, doing it right now [18:13] !bot | pipelineaudio [18:13] pipelineaudio: I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot.

[18:13] ankit: on the Installation:Ubuntu page, *do not* follow instructions 1-5. They are old. [18:14] marybuntu_: Yes [18:14] ok [18:14] corey, from the command line type sudo cp .nc /dev/fl0 [18:14] ankit: basically the ie4linux script should setup everything for you. i dont know about the graphical stuff but after you run the script you will have a bin dir in your home so you can just 1) open terminal 2) and type bin/ie6& in terminal to run it [18:14] marybuntu_: When you want compiz to be re-enabled do the same thing and type comiz --replace [18:14] marybuntu_: compiz, sorry. [18:14] do I need to keep the lost+found folders?

Can anyone help me? [18:22] najsel: Xgl disables direct rendering, so you can't use both compiz and 3d games at the same time with fglrx [18:22] I try to get my Via audiodevice working on Ubuntu, In Xubuntu under Mixer only the default card is listed, not the via card.

[18:23] Andycass1: routing [18:23] I know I should use route command, but with what synopsis [18:23] Andycass1: you have to set a route to a destination to use a specific ip [18:23] kinroad: that's what I need but I don't get the grub-install stuff [18:23] what is Mozilla Gecko [18:23] But i want to direct the whole net to this ip [18:24] SatManUK: Firefox's rendering engine [18:24] is that what ie is based on anybody know? wine is installing it atm. [18:24] Andycass1: so set a default route [18:24] anyone liking Swiftfox ? [18:24] neverblue: not really, [18:24] SatManUK: No, wine is installing a mozilla control for apps that embed IE in them [18:24] anyone know a good app for transcoding .avi to a lower resolution for playing on a psp?

I tried to insstall quick switch locale addon but the interface is still in english [18:25] Andycass1: or use the network admin gui [18:26] ikonia, if someone asks again: you can find the rules here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines . i propose to write down the link :D [18:26] qos: that link is in the topic [18:26] qos: as I told you [18:26] qos, write?

[18:26] ikonia, it is not [18:26] oki have tried wat it said, but it php doesn't work still [18:26] najsel: if you disable Xgl, yes [18:27] qos: it is - got to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRCResourcePage in the topic which links to it [18:27] without which compiz won't work (on fglrx) [18:27] I recently got a widescreen LCD and have my desktop set to 1680x1050.

[18:27] if you want a permanent list, then use another client [18:27] maxagaz: ok then the grub shell will work fine [18:27] crdlb: how do I do that the easiest way? [18:27] qos: please stop arguing, if you read the links in the topic you get to the rules [18:27] ikonia, i didn't know that it would be that easy [18:28] crdlb: where is this button?

[18:28] bubuq: bottom left [18:28] bubuq: it says "1251 users" right now [18:28] crdlb: do you mean that there are 1251 users here? ;-O [18:28] he does [18:29] Mine doesnt tell me how many [18:29] omfg.

[18:29] oh ma fudging gawd [18:29] but you said it too ikonia :) [18:30] but but but [18:30] ikonia: it's good that everybody knows that. I like to be understood. [18:30] omfc - oh my fudged cake! [18:30] Myrtti, why do we have a different user count? [18:30] Moduliz0r__: enough [18:30] *sigh* [18:30] bubuq: good, so you understand its inappropriate [18:30] but [18:30] i have nothing better to do [18:30] ikonia: no, why? [18:30] Moduliz0r__: find something, then. [18:30] Moduliz0r__: you might pretty soon [18:30] um [18:30] bubuq: because there is no need for bad language [18:30] nanonyme: because it changes when people leave ... [18:30] I was thinking of use the server addition of ubuntu and had a couple questions about what was included and used, are python and ssh available and what is used to transfer files to the apache server? [18:30] ?$+ ikonia? i have php5 installed but i dont see anything on my site.. [18:31] why are you going to haxx0r me to give me some fixx0ring to do? [18:31] ikonia, i just want to add: when you are so fussy with the rules, don't hide them that good. paste them directly in the topic or stop wasting my time [18:31] crdlb, hmm, just remembered something... [18:31] Is there a way to change firefox interface language to PT-BR while change the whole system to ptbr ? I tried to insstall quick switch locale addon but the interface is still in english [18:31] qos: the Code of Conduct is published [18:31] najsel: mkdir -p ~/.config/xserver-xgl/; touch ~/.config/xserver-xgl/disable [18:31] crdlb, i forgot i had ignored joins and parts :P [18:31] ya i installed wine emulator and after that what can i do [18:31] qos: I asked you to read the topic - for the rules, they are not hidden [18:31] but there was no bad language. [18:31] ikonia: I used "route add default eth1:1", still nothing [18:31] AAAANNNDD we shall move on [18:32] Anyone know where I can get a 5 or 8 port Gigabit switch? [18:32] kinroad: well actually,the computer I'm going to install linux on has just vista... so, I can run the install of linux just by running syslinux, and just having the two files initrd.gz & linux on my usb hard drive, right ? [18:32] Andycass1: thats not an ip address [18:32] najsel: and remove that file (~/.config/xserver-xgl/disable) to re-enable it [18:32] Andycass1: route uses ip addresses AND the -i interface flag [18:32] SK: sorry I missed your question [18:32] griping about the rules is for the grade school playground [18:32] ?$+ ikonia? i have php5 installed but i dont see anything on my site.. [18:32] i restarted apache2 and it is anabled [18:32] *enabled [18:32] SK: ok - have you got a site written in php [18:32] yes [18:32] there are rules, you're welcome to adhere to them, if you do not, then you will end up in troubles. IRC is not a democracy, so the rules aren't an issue to be discussed over - not on this channel anyway. [18:32] SK: can you share it with us ? [18:32] hmm so it should be "route add default 192.168.1.65 -i eth1:1" ? [18:32] 18:29 < ikonia> bubuq: everyone knows what omfg means and its uncalled for [18:33] ikonia: that's a bit of an assumption to make [18:33] http://theagentalliance.ath.cx [18:33] gordonjcp: just drop it [18:33] gordonjcp: yes, but its still uncalled for. Lets move on [18:33] atm it says page cannot be displayed [18:33] SK, which page? [18:33] ikonia: it's a meaningless string of four characters [18:33] cake [18:33] index.html [18:33] SK: thats because either a.) apache is not running b.) dns is not pointing to a correct apache server host [18:33] crdlb: thats very complicated for me that is just a noob. I must now what i'm doing. :D [18:33] the dns works [18:33] Myrtti, well, rules *are* an issue to be discussed over. just not an issue to be argued publicly about :) [18:34] SK that cannot display PHP [18:34] as the TeamSpeak server works on it [18:34] SK as its an .html file [18:34] SK: haveyou configured apache to listen on the correct ip addres [18:34] nanonyme: as I said, not on this channel [18:34] gordonjcp: this is just an assumption. I may mean something entirely different. English is not my first language. [18:34] um [18:34] SK: I'm guessing your virtual host isn't configured correctly, if it's not showing what you expect [18:34] najsel: all that command does is create the file ~/.config/xserver-xgl/disable [18:34] i can see nothing wrong with eg sending a question to an op [18:34] SK where is the location to the php page YOU are trying to view [18:34] any one know of a way to listen to a specific port ? i just want to test connectivity [18:34] bubuq: that's true for a lot of people here [18:34] 1 sec [18:34] well, yeah [18:34] bubuq: it's only marginally my first language, tbh [18:34] najsel: ~/ represents your home directory [18:34] is it necessary that "restricted-manager --check" run in the session startup for the already-installed restricted drivers to work, or does that just look for updates? [18:34] can I AVOID SCAN of the DISK when I mounted ext3 in WinXP and hybernating? [18:35] http://theagentalliance.ath.cx/roulette.php [18:35] jsschmid1: unmount before hibernating? [18:35] crdlb: ok? and if i remove it the xgl will work again [18:35] or phpinfo.php [18:35] gordonjcp: which means that we can't say "everybody knows that" [18:35] SK: that works, but the content-type is wrong [18:35] SK: apache is not listening [18:35] . [18:35] najsel: after logging out, yes [18:35] bubuq: I could say some very rude words in here that I doubt anyone else would understand [18:35] throw the ati card in a drawer and use an nvidia untill ati gets their act together and fixes all the driver issues [18:35] gordonjcp: are you getting a server response ? [18:35] how do i get it to listen ? [18:35] ikonia: yup [18:35] SK: you need to configure apache [18:35] gordonjcp: I mean something automatic, or just advice linux not to scan because anyhow the FS is consistent [18:35] gordonjcp: I'm getting a dead response. [18:35] gordonjcp: ...most likely [18:36] ikonia: I'm getting a php page served as plain text [18:36] I try to get my Via audiodevice working on Ubuntu, In Xubuntu under Mixer only the default card is listed, not the via card. However, lsmod and lspci give this output http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/44523/ indicating that the card is recognised. How can i get it to work? [18:36] SK I see nothing in the file [18:36] gordonjcp: exactly my point. I said something neutral, but some people got offended. [18:36] gordonjcp: very different responses [18:36] jsschmid1: you don't know if it's consistent if Windows hibernated on it [18:36] ikonia: it seems to be empty though [18:36] je veu monté un disk il m afiche ( hal-storage-fixed-monte refused uid 1000 ) [18:36] bizarre [18:36] ?$+ neverblue? thats my point lol# [18:36] maxagaz: copy the linux and initrg.gz files to the usb hard drive, run syslinux F: (use usb drive letter) to make it bootable [18:36] crdlb: so I must remove that file everytime I want to use compiz?

[18:38] no [18:38] [18:38] najsel: well, while in Xgl, you can start games with "DISPLAY=:0 game_goes_here" which will run the game on X [18:38] SK u may want to [18:38] which is running underneath of Xgl [18:38] which php or apahce ?

I would like to see _official_ page of this specific channel. === TomFar is now known as Berkov [18:44] najsel: yes, fglrx is your video driver [18:44] ikonia: I may have to email, I was hoping they'd have a channel, but no such luck :P [18:44] how is Bercov?

[18:45] does the restricted-driver --check HAVE to run at session startup in order for restricted drivers to keep working, or is that *just* to update them? i see no reason why mine would need to be updated when they currently work perfectly [18:45] soundray: I guess,.. I just wanted to convert my videos so I don't get the troubles with nonfree codecs [18:45] how would i install the libburn package from svn? [18:45] bubuq: I don't make any claim [18:45] green__: first youd need to have subversion and build-essential installed [18:45] ikonia: I can see you are swamped, thanks anyway! [18:45] Adriaan_: mencoder will probably work for you. Maybe transcode or ffmpeg as well. Be aware that you will end up with compression artifacts from both codecs. [18:45] Sigh, Im still lost with the route command... [18:45] ikonia: you dared to reprimand me, citing rules, which don't exist! [18:45] bubuq: you're spamming the channel. Please stop. [18:45] jsschmid1: if your wireless device is not native use ndiswrapper .... theres a great ubuntu how-to on the wiki [18:46] my laptop has a light to illuminate they keyboard - but i don't know how to set it p with ubuntu [18:46] bubuq, youa re acting like troll right this second, please stop. [18:46] ikonia: jsut drop it [18:46] macogw: ok then? [18:46] What could be the reason Xnest :1 -ac & does not work when I have it in a script, but when I run it manually? [18:46] tritium: having a conversation in CHAT means spamming?! [18:46] green__: you have those installed? [18:46] anyone know a good app for transcoding .avi to a lower resolution for playing on a psp? i have vlc but it doesn't seem to do that. === orion-uk is now known as Darkseed_uk [18:46] yes [18:46] YeTr2: its already delt with [18:46] bubuq: you're far off topic, and ranting on and on, so _yes_ [18:46] crdlb: Ok, i'm making that file with mkdir -p ~/.config/xserver-xgl/; touch ~/.config/xserver-xgl/disable and the i have to use remove mkdir -p ~/.config/xserver-xgl/; touch ~/.config/xserver-xgl/disable everytime I want to use compiz? [18:46] The "route add default 192.168.1.65 eth1:1" Doesnt do anything [18:46] musashi: I think that's a FFmpeg FAQ [18:47] musashi: sudo apt-get install ffmpeg and read the FAQ on their site [18:47] Andycass1: I TOLD you 3 times now, -i for interfaces, read the man page [18:47] green__: the program's website should tell you how to checkout the source. it'll be "svn co" (co or checkout...either works) then the url to the source [18:47] Enselic_: cool thanks === Darkseed_uk is now known as orion-uk [18:47] bubuq: read your private messages, please [18:47] tritium: I am sorry about that, but I was insulted. How shall I deal with that now? [18:47] it does [18:47] soundray: I heard VLC can also convert to ogg theora, how should I do this? [18:47] bubuq: drop it [18:47] thank you [18:47] -i tells me "invalid option --i" [18:47] najsel: once the file is created, use "rm ~/.config/xserver-xgl/disable" to remove, and "touch ~/.config/xserver-xgl/disable" to recreate it [18:48] holy moly! [18:48] green__: once you get the source, cd into it, and if there's a file called "configure" run "./configure" if there's not, run "./autogen.sh" first, then ./configure then "make" then "make install" [18:48] Hello, Need help with GDM - It will not allow me to run Login Window... it says It's not running [18:48] Bannana cream pie! [18:48] Adriaan_: I would recomend FFmpeg for any media converting task [18:48] Andycass1: you don't need to put an interface if you only have one ip address on that subnet [18:48] Can linux run in a cake? [18:48] mike3_: ? [18:48] mike3_: Linux runs everywhere [18:48] including cakes [18:48] NetBSD can run on a toaster [18:48] mike3_: does the cake have any hardware baked inside it? [18:48] macogw: thanks i'll try that [18:48] yes. yes it can [18:48] Enselic_, Really? Even strawberry? [18:48] mike3_: there ahve been toasters and bread boxes, don't see why you can't build one in a cake. [18:48] crdlb: ok! [18:48] !offtopic >mike3_ [18:48] I have two ips on that subnet [18:48] oh yeah, works great in my raspberry-filled [18:48] mike3_: oh strawberry? sorry, not ported yet [18:49] might smell after a while.. [18:49] I imagine strawberry would work too [18:49] anyone? [18:49] no way strawberry would work [18:49] Enselic_: FFmpeg? ok, I'll google it right away [18:49] and without interface it tells me "No such interface" :/ [18:49] banana is the most stable yet I've heard [18:49] hahah [18:49] sorry "no such device" [18:49] Linux has ended-up being quite portable, but NetBSD is the reigning random hardware support champion [18:49] I'm just cracking jokes.. [18:49] Andycass1: I apologise you don't need the -i [18:50] need a little help [18:50] pcdoc963: thanks, but currently I use the ipw3945, which is working great, but I need packet injection to play around with WEP key finding (for scientific purpose) [18:50] !ask | CyberAgeVoodoo [18:50] CyberAgeVoodoo: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :) [18:50] I have a PROBLEM with the MAKE of a WIRELESS DRIVER, I think it's a problem with directories, see make output: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/44526/ [18:50] Hi there all :) [18:50] I have a program I started and opened a port on 8100 ... is there anything I need to do to allow another computer to connect? [18:50] I'd just want this thing to get working... With or without -i its still not working [18:50] sleek: not on a default install afaik [18:51] Andycass1: show me the command your using again [18:51] I have low space on my LINUX Ubuntu and I'm going to use a program to extend the space but the only problem is, is that it will mess up the gurb boot menu, So what can i do? [18:51] no idea then jsschmid1 i run a 100% wired network [18:51] sleek: make sure iptables isn't running and if this is an internet server behind a router, make sure port forwarding is enabled. [18:51] trying to get GDM (Login Window) to work, but it says It's not running. ... accusing "KDM, or some other manager to be running it [18:51] hallo to everybody [18:51] jsschmid1: the makefile in the specified directory does not have rules for making 'modules' [18:51] pcdoc963: which is good no one will break in ;-) [18:51] route add default 192.168.1.65 eth1:1 [18:51] yep ") [18:51] fridge.ubuntu.com/node/300 [18:51] Andycass1: ok try this [18:51] sweet! [18:51] how do I reset it to use GDM [18:52] I have low space on my LINUX Ubuntu and I'm going to use a program to extend the space but the only problem is, is that it will mess up the gurb boot menu, So what can i do?

[18:52] Enselic_: I read that, but I am not experienced enough to fix that issue, can you help? [18:52] !patience | private_guy [18:52] private_guy: The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines [18:52] Sorry [18:53] jsschmid1: you should be ok if you just follow drivers installation instructions [18:53] private_guy: use lvm next time? [18:53] Andycass1: I'm not sure how virtual interfaces are handled with route, more so when they are on the same subnet as the physical card's address [18:53] YeTr2: lvm? [18:53] Hmm, it doesnt want to accept it, gives me list of synopses... [18:53] ikonia, i setup the virtual host [18:53] When compiling should the build-essential tools know the right location to install files to ? or is the user expected to add the correct --prefix ? [18:53] Dr_willis: i got this error invoke-rc.d: initscript gdm, action "reload" failed. [18:54] Andycass1: try dropping the :1 [18:54] looks like apache volunteers not ubuntu .... i just want to turn off the login prompt when i open my laptop door not code a website lol [18:54] guys i am not able to installed internet explorer [18:54] private_guy: logical volume management. it allows for shrink/grow of "partitions" on the fly. [18:54] hi [18:54] macogw: it keeps telling me no such file or directory [18:54] some body knows why my supernintendo emulator zsnes doesn't open? should I do something in particular?

[18:54] Still same [18:54] lucio123: try running it from a terminal window and see if there are any errors being produced. [18:54] YeTr2: Yeah but if i use those programs, it messes up the Ubuntu Booting Menu, it wont work giving me an Error 17 [18:54] Enselic_: is there a specific standard file (name) with contains install instructions? [18:54] well ... i'll go for a reboot. hopefully that fixes it [18:54] Andycass1: drop the dev and eth1/eth1:1 [18:54] Andycass1: just assign via IP [18:54] green__: and can you do "ls" and see if autogen.sh is there? [18:55] jsschmid1: the instructions should come wiht the driver package [18:55] najsel: you need to run "mkdir -p ~/.config/xserver-xgl" *once* to create that folder [18:55] green__: theres likely also a readme [18:55] jsschmid1: if you use a package from Ubuntu, look in /usr/share/doc/ [18:55] macogw: yes i got the source, then ls then cd into libburn [18:55] Andycass1: or try route add -net 0.0.0.0 192.168.x.x [18:55] private_guy: why would you need to resize your /boot anyways? [18:55] after that, you only need to run the touch part [18:55] ikonia: gives me "SIOCADDRT - No such device" [18:55] yetr2, what command I give to run it from the terminal? [18:55] lucio123: you have a terminal window open? [18:55] Andycass1: show me ifconfig eth0 [18:56] YeTr2: Full Space, i made the size 2 GB by mistake :(.. and now I cant login unless i login with Root to access ubuntu [18:56] ikoniaL i setup the virtual host but its still showing same as before, and i did restart apache [18:56] macogw: then i ls again and tried to cd into any other colored lisyting [18:56] yetr2 , yes it is open [18:56] lucio123: `zsnes` [18:56] can anyone help me on fixing this http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2004/2020709789_f3bd81b523.jpg?v=0 [18:56] green__: what files were in there? [18:56] guys how can i installed internet explorer on linex [18:56] green__: any green-highlighted ones? [18:56] ankit: IEs4Lin (google it) [18:57] macogw: the colored ones? [18:57] I cannot blacklist the 8139cp module because it gets loaded from the initramfs at boot. How can I create a new initramfs *without* loading the 8139cp module? [18:57] green__: well purple is for directories. anything green? [18:57] private_guy: you should have just let ubuntu handle the partitioning. /boot is rarely larger than 150MB(Redhat thing). usually it's smaller around 50MB [18:57] ankit: buy and install crossover office [18:57] ya i installed ies4linex but after that i can't know what can i do [18:58] YeTr2: Yeah but I have another 6 GB Free which i want to addon to the Ubuntu drive, but if i do, it messes up the Boot Menu [18:58] macogw: theres cdrskin, doc, libburn, libcevap and test [18:58] crdlb: I've done that once, but then when i'm running the touch command I can't touch it [18:58] yetr2 I wrote 'zsnes' in the terminal window and I didn't get any error [18:58] Enselic_: it is not a package of Ubuntu and there, as far as I can see, no instructions on how to compile the driver. [18:58] green__: ok and what's inside libbburn [18:58] ikonia: inet addr:10.22.42.156 Bcast: 10.22.42.244 Mask: 255.255.255.0 [18:59] can anyone help me on fixing this http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2004/2020709789_f3bd81b523.jpg?v=0 [18:59] ankit: umm i think it's in ~/bin [18:59] jsschmid1: there sure are compiling instructions somewhere [18:59] jsschmid1: maybe on the site [18:59] Andycass1: that worked ? [18:59] Enselic_: ok, just found it... I didn't expect it to be a text file but it is ... called INSTALL [18:59] Should I just wait for the documentation on Kubuntu 7.10? My upgrade failed. [18:59] jsschmid1: that distributes the drivers I mean [18:59] Nah.. [18:59] !fixres > cody [18:59] jsschmid1: right, note that as good as all ALLCAPS files are text files on Linux [18:59] Enselic_: now I know for future tries [18:59] Andycass1: didn't think so [18:59] ankit: open a terminal, "cd bin" then "ls" to see what's there, and "./ie6" for a file called ie6 (change what's after the ./ for different ones) [18:59] Andycass1: I was about to be shocked if it did [19:00] YeTr2: Yeah but I have another 6 GB Free which i want to addon to the Ubuntu drive, but if i do, it messes up the Boot Menu [19:00] I recently got a widescreen LCD and have my desktop set to 1680x1050. I also run WoW in this resolution but when I quit WoW my desktop mysteriously gets set to 1280x1024 and I have to change it. Any idea why this would be happening? [19:00] ok wats the command to uninstall something ? [19:00] macogw: those are the only ones listed that are purple [19:00] SK: use synaptic the package manager [19:00] Enselic_: good thanks a lot, I think I will be fine now... thanks again and keep up your good work! [19:00] Enselic_: cu! [19:00] jsschmid1: :) [19:00] sudo apt... [19:00] private_guy: MAke the 6gig partition and use it for /home or for var/cache/apt/archives [19:00] SK: sudo apt-get remove [19:01] ok [19:01] any advice on playing back quicktime files? [19:01] SK: man apt-get to find out [19:01] Asterix, thats more of a wine issue, its not resetting the display properly. [19:01] scales: have you tried simply doubleclicking them? [19:01] ciao a tutti [19:01] Jack_Sparrow: Yeah but ubuntu is on the other logical drive :( [19:01] private_guy: Shouldn't matter [19:01] Enselic_: yeah i have, i try to play a quicktime file in firefox and it plays, but stops and stalls etc [19:01] ci sono Italiani??????? [19:02] i have also had issues playing mpeg files [19:02] !it [19:02] Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie! [19:02] that are not embedded [19:02] Jack_Sparrow: Well if you could tell me how to Repair the linux boot menu like MBR Fix on windows, that would be very helpful [19:02] Dr_willis: thanks [19:02] scales: ok, playing them in browsers is a different matter [19:02] grazie [19:02] green__: not purple. green means executable [19:02] anyway i have to leave now [19:02] class is over [19:02] bye [19:03] macogw: bootstrap [19:03] private_guy: There are a few things to consider... I dont have much time, but if you add a logical after the ubuntu partition it will not affect the boot [19:03] Jack_Sparrow: Forget about all i have said, i just want to know how to repair the gurb ubuntu booting menu [19:03] Enselic_: so would vlc do a better job? how do i tell firefox to use it? [19:03] !grub [19:03] grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto [19:04] private_guy: That explains it better than I can in here [19:04] hi, i have set up pure-ftpd server with anonymous access on a computer meant for some easy distributing of certain files in a LAN environment [19:05] but the anonymous people can not create directories, how can i set it so they can? [19:05] how would i disable a usb device, without unplugging it? [19:05] arnath: have you read the documentation of the server? [19:05] Dam.. I might just format the whole thing lol [19:05] re [19:05] private_guy: That really isnt necessary [19:06] Enselic_: i've been googling a lot and was initially following a guide for a debian system with this server, but i have yet to find anyone refer to this [19:06] arnath: there is a gui for pureftpd i think its called pureadmin might make setting up config file a little easier. never used it myself [19:06] pike_: o thanks, will look into that [19:06] arnath: well if this is possbile it surely is documented somewhere [19:06] if i plugin my headset, the internal sound is work too [19:06] arnath: because allowing anon-ftp uploads is generally a really really really really really bad idea. [19:06] Enselic_: that's one of my questions, i don't know if it is possible at all [19:06] anybody have an idea ? [19:06] hi [19:06] YeTr2: it's on a closed LAN and i trust everyone there ;) [19:06] arnath: and if it's not posible I know that vsftpd can be configured to let anons create dirs [19:07] arnath: it's still a really really really bad idea [19:07] arnath: anon_create_dir=YES is the option, or similar [19:07] how I install the ubuntu 7.10 using the iso? [19:07] I have the iso of ubuntu 7.10 [19:07] YeTr2: why exactly? they have no execute rights or anything, just read/Write [19:07] Enselic_: ah will have a look [19:07] desktop 7.10 [19:07] macogw: ok i cd into libburn the second time it showed up into ls and now i have in green libdax_msgs_to_xyz_msgs.sh [19:07] !iso | wanderley [19:07] wanderley: To mount an ISO disc image, type « sudo mount -o loop » - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning. [19:07] private_guy: run this and then paste it to the pastebin and someone will be able to help you better.. sudo fdisk -l > ~/Desktop/Partition.Layout.$(date +%m-%d-%Y-%T).txt [19:07] arnath: you would be suprised at how much touble can becaused with write permissions [19:08] wanderley: nm that bot. Anyway you need to burn the .iso onto a CD, then reboot with the CD in the computer [19:08] YeTr2: the only other option is to make 1 user who can do the exact same thing and give everyone that user, so might as well do it with anonymous ay? [19:08] wanderley: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation might be a good starting place for various options [19:08] wanderley: you might need to configure BIOS to try to boot from the CD before it tries the HD [19:08] yeah [19:08] in a given directory, how do i find recursively find all the files that do not belong to any package ? find | xargs dpkg -S | grep "not found" is giving false positives [19:08] I mounted iso and I used the apt-cdrom [19:08] arnath: since you are on a lan, I would think about doing NFS/SMB instead. [19:08] but when I try to update with update-manager it try download the files [19:09] my sound skips when i play a mp3 why ? and it makes me cpu 100% in used [19:09] is there a way to disable a usb device, i have its device ID [19:09] whats easiest to setup a quick ftp server for myself when im away? proftpd, vsftp, or pure-ftp? [19:09] i wanna compile someting but i get this output http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/44529/ but i have openssl on my machine... anyway any suggestions ?:s [19:09] YeTr2: it's a one-time setup [19:09] marko-_-: sudo aptitude install openssl-dev [19:10] thanks [19:10] and for other stuff ? [19:10] the direct rendering works really fine now thanks! [19:10] marko-_-: just remember whenever you want to compile anything from source on debian based systems, you need to install pkg foo and corressponding package foo-dev or foo-devel [19:10] marko-_-: apt-cache search for the right package (it sohould end in -dev) [19:10] macogw:? [19:10] hi [19:10] pablo__: Hi!! [19:11] rohan, well the thing is i don't compile much and i didn't understand nothing what you said right now [19:11] arnath: you say anon-write, I see goatse in your future. [19:11] marko-_-: well, what are you trying to compile ? [19:11] it's a secret :P [19:11] YeTr2: goatse? [19:11] no one knows what I should do to run ZSNES (supernintendo emulator)? [19:11] hello [19:11] marko-_-: well then figure out the dependencies and install the devel packages yourself .. [19:11] do you guys know if it's possible through DHCP to request a block? say you have a network like 10.1.0.0/16 and you want to reserve a block like 10.1.1.0/24 for a different DHCP server to manage [19:11] rohan but if i tell you that everyone will flame me probably [19:12] lucio123: sudo apt-get install zsnes [19:12] Hi can anyone help me with X?

[19:15] Evanlec: might very well be so, yes [19:15] what is linux's commandline for dir? [19:15] hi, I've noticed my hard drive is very slow on ubuntu gutsy. I also noticed that my hdd's device name is /dev/sda but it is not a scsi drive. Is scsi emulation supposed to be faster? When I do hdparm /dev/sda, it does not print using_dma=1. Can you use dma while using scsi emulation? Thanks for any help in advance...

[19:18] zsnes [19:18] YeTr2: i had the impression that sda was for a scsi drive and hda was for an ide drive? am I mistaken? are you saying that it makes no difference whether my drive is called hda or sda? [19:18] tomd: none what so ever. [19:18] lucio123: does it say anything if you try to start it from a terminal?

[19:57] FoSsiL: it means "I can't install Debian" [19:57] is an ethic or humanist philosophy focusing on people's allegiances and relations with each other.

[19:58] !offtopic [19:58] #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! [19:58] especially fro a previous release. right now i've got feisty fawn [19:58] Jimmytakeover, do a backup first?

[19:59] sylverfox, i have a 5700 card [19:59] Sylverfox: I do at home. What's your question? [19:59] Jimmytakeover: it's got better than previous release upgrades. Do update your backups, though [19:59] ok can i get some installation help [19:59] The_Machine, well, thats a brilliant idea if you've got enough diskspace. I dont :( [19:59] so michael jackson developed it [19:59] if anyone IM me [19:59] legacy drivers [19:59] Could someone help me out with route command? Im trying to make my eth1:1 interface to be the default host (192.168.1.65), rather than the eth1 interface (10.26.2.1) [19:59] Jimmytakeover, you don't have an external disk you can back up to? [19:59] heck, back up to some free online storage [19:59] akince1: after i activate the resticted deiver to have 3D, and reboot i get to failsafe [20:00] it isn't going to kill your filesystem.. [20:00] (an upgrade) [20:00] route add default gw 192.168.1.65 [20:00] so you don't have to back up your mp3s, etc. [20:00] What program is good to convert * videofiles to mp4 H.264? I want to play them on my iPod [20:00] how do you enable suspend-to-ram [20:00] your porn collection. [20:00] sylverfox: Are you trying to configure dual monitors? [20:00] akince1: no [20:00] akince- I am. (sort of) [20:00] soundray, im back [20:00] minus198, google it - there are free options all over [20:00] Telstar, "Sort of" xD [20:00] akince1: i just need 3D [20:00] I just want to turn on the external monitor on my Dell Insprion [20:00] sylverfox, use the restricted drivers [20:01] In winblows there is a management app [20:01] i do [20:01] not sure how to do this in Ubuntu ! [20:01] The_Machine: i do [20:01] The_Machine: but it doesn't work after reboot [20:01] Telstar: "windblows" - on purpose? [20:01] Gutsy has a bleutootstack supporting bluetooth 2.0, then why is bluetooth 2.0 EDR (fast transfer) not supported? [20:01] newuser, sudo e2fsck -b32768 -B4096 /dev/(ubuntu parition hda1) [20:02] zias- well i didn't type that by accident [20:02] ;-P [20:02] ha ok [20:02] akince1: i think there is a problem when loadin the modeules, this is whz i whould need a godd xorg.conf [20:02] yeah otherwise use edbuntu === xisco is now known as vikari_metal [20:02] but seriously I need to turn on the ext monitor port [20:02] How do I change the notification daemon theme? [20:02] never done this b4 ! [20:02] i don't know [20:03] maybe on the sourcecode [20:03] sylverfox: I'll get my xorg.conf later and email you a copy if you want [20:03] and recompile it === vikari_metal is now known as xisco [20:03] akince1: sure, when? [20:03] Telstar: Does this route command stay after I reboot? [20:03] sylverfox, i have that nVidia card on my laptop running gutsy [20:03] Telstar: Dual monitors on an FX5200 was only accomplished when I hand edited xorg.conf [20:04] raintheory: could you send me your xorg.conf? [20:04] sylverfox: I will be home around 6PM Eastern or so [20:04] hi all, anyone know a software for analyze asterisk net that can use with ubuntu? [20:04] sylverfox, here is mine: http://www.nomorepasting.com/getpaste.php?pasteid=6640 [20:04] sylverfox, sure, iu have compiz running though... is that ok? [20:04] akince1: ok, i'm from europe, what"s the time now at you [20:04] but i have a fx5700 [20:04] 3:04 [20:04] same thing though :P [20:05] 13:04 if you do 24 hour time [20:05] crap [20:05] 15:04 [20:05] thanks The_Machine [20:05] 01:35 :) [20:05] raintheory: how do i check that? [20:05] sylverfox, might want to talk in #nvidia :) [20:05] akince1, lol, hung up still? [20:06] Hi. I'm having troubles with Metacity/Compiz-Fusion. The window borders, to be exact. When I booted my computer, the fonts of the window title was terribly big. Than I checked the font settings in 'Preferences' > 'Appearance' and the font is 9 points. 9 points would be just perfect but in fact it is way bigger. And the font seems to be unchangable. Han anyone help me to get the font smaller again, please? It's really ugly like that. [20:06] HI' [20:06] maxman, ask in #compiz-fusion [20:06] hung up? [20:06] The_Machine: i tried there [20:06] sylverfox, k [20:06] The_Machine: but got no help [20:06] i am planning to buy a 8600gts. i wonder whether it'd be good enough to run virualbox windows and play biohazard on it while on ubuntu [20:07] i did once upon a time, which is why i recommended it. [20:07] oh, okay. Thanks, The_Machine [20:07] sylverfox, check what? -also just noticed while looking at my xorg.conf... i've got a FXgo5100, not 5200 [20:07] The_Machine: ok mazbe i will trz again, if i can't magane [20:07] Could someone help me out with route command? Im trying to make my eth1:1 interface to be the default host (192.168.1.65), rather than the eth1 interface (10.26.2.1) [20:07] raintheory: how do i check if i have compiy running? [20:07] i ask cohagen [20:08] back [20:08] The "route add default gw hostname interface" doesnt work, it only makes it able to go to routers site [20:08] is network mounting home directories safe? [20:08] <_a2e_dod`TyraeL^> seek war 1.3 nowwwwwwwwwwwww skill low !!!!!!!!!! [20:09] sylverfox, , system / preferences / appearance - visual effects tab.. [20:09] If I try to ping, i get the IP and all, but it fails? [20:09] is there a way to install ubuntu dual boot from winxp, such that it will partition and take a chunk off a hard drive, without risk of damaging the data? [20:09] I can ping my LAN ips [20:09] sylverfox, here is my xorg.conf: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/44537/ [20:10] Sonjaaa, its easier if you create a primary partition from within windows using some disk partition tool and then use it during the ubuntu installation. [20:10] hi, my mplayer isn't dying [20:11] i am doing sudo killall -s9 mplayer [20:11] the process closes and reopens [20:11] well, that was a new one. Whats launching it? [20:11] thanks raintheory and The_Machine for the xorg.conf, no i try to gues what is the difference from mine [20:11] i have no clue [20:11] but it's eating up my processor [20:11] Jimmytakeover ok [20:12] sylverfox, good luck. ... what are ytou having problems with anyway? [20:12] i'll use partitionmagic then [20:13] anyone know? [20:13] Sonjaaa: I don't agree with Jimmytakeover's advice [20:14] Sonjaaa, i disagree as well [20:14] i have a dsl connection but no router. do i have to install my modem? if not, how can i find out which is the correct device in /dev/* ? thanks [20:14] hello. does anyone know if there is a how to on compiz fusion with ubuntu 7.10? [20:14] shortdon, you need to use ppp [20:14] Sonjaaa: it's best to let the Ubuntu installer do the partitioning for you. It's designed to create a dual-boot system automatically. [20:14] shortdon, There is plenty of guides on how to install this. [20:14] raintheory: after enableing the restricted driver and rebooting i get to failsafe [20:14] ok [20:14] Sonjaaa, I disagree with the disagreements. It's a bug in windows, but I have seen windows get borked by creating a partition entirely outside any partition used for windows. [20:14] i was told i can lose data [20:15] if i let ubuntu partition for me [20:15] always back up your data before you partition with anything. [20:15] Sonjaaa, yes, because of a windows bug, you can. [20:15] :) [20:15] Sonjaaa: if you are more comfortable with partitionmagic you should definitely use it. [20:15] Sonjaaa, but it is quite rare. [20:15] hello [20:15] Sonjaaa, there is, on the other hand, absolutely nothing wrong with creating the partition in windows. [20:15] how many gigs should i give to my new U: drive :) [20:15] how can I create grub's menu.lst ? [20:15] for ubuntu [20:16] i'm only really going to use linux for a couple of programs that don't exist for windows [20:16] sylverfox, hmm... [20:16] like GRAMPS [20:16] Sonjaaa, that's windows talk, wwe don't have things like :U (god, how incredibly ugly, looks like (ughh) VMS [20:16] Sonjaaa, if you have tons of space, allow 10 gig. If not allow about 6 gig. [20:16] drive letters predated windows though, in dos :) [20:16] okay [20:16] thanks [20:16] Sonjaaa, they predated DOS in VMS, and I've hated them for 30 years. :) [20:16] Sonjaaa: probably you'd be happier with vmware instead... then you don' t have to reboot to run linux [20:17] what's vmware? virtual? [20:17] like a linux emulator? [20:17] Sonjaaa, right, a program that emulates the hardware [20:17] sweet [20:17] Sonjaaa, it's not just for linux, it's general purpose [20:17] is that hard to set up? [20:17] is there an irc chan for that? [20:17] Sonjaaa, you can run windows in it, you can run linux in it, you can run BSD in it, etc. [20:17] Sonjaaa: sort of, it's hardware paravirtualization... it doesn't emulate so much as it passes through. it's fast (maybe a 10% drop in speed) www.vmware.com [20:17] How do I install debconf? apt-get dies cause debconf isnt installed [20:18] Sonjaaa, I believe there is an IRC channel. AFAIK it isn't difficult to set up, but I haven't worked with it in several months. [20:18] will it slow down my winxp too? or just my linux? [20:18] Sonjaaa: it won't slow down Windows [20:18] ok [20:18] soundray? any ideas [20:18] ok finally backport and volatile packages fixed prob oh [20:18] cya [20:18] raintheory: hmmm..... hmmmm..... [20:19] vmware it is then [20:19] lunartear: do you have a deb for debconf in /var/cache/apt/archives/ ? [20:19] btw, there's plenty of software for windows that supports gedcom-files, for genealogy [20:19] I had porn dvd playback working in fiesty, but suddenly it is gone in gutsy, this makes me sad :( [20:20] Myrtti what's a really good free multilingual windows genealogy software? [20:20] soundray yes [20:20] Sonjaaa: not necessarily multilingual, but let me see [20:20] Anyone familiar with viewing copy protected dvds on gutsy? :) [20:20] i want it to be multilingual, so i can know the kinship term from one person to another person, in french, english, and whatever else is supported [20:20] lunartear: see if you can install it with 'sudo dpkg -i /var/cache/apt/archives/debconf*deb [20:20] Has anybody scene this problem? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=3766425#post3766425 [20:21] AAAALLLOOOOOO [20:21] Must...view....porn...hellpppp [20:21] AAALLLOOOMN AA;;;KKKIIIMMMMSSSSSS [20:21] DBSSSSSSNHHNSDDD [20:21] HGHJFD [20:21] GHHHHGDDDDDDDSDDDD [20:21] JSDKKWEUIL;ED9EEJJDF [20:21] SDDDDJKHKJFKJSDHIWWKLJ; [20:21] 13254+ [20:21] * nn kicks karabuk in the nuts. Stop that dude [20:21] soundray Can't locate Debconf/Db.pm in @INC [20:21] nn: leave that to the channel ops, please [20:22] lunartear: how did you get into this situation? [20:22] soundray: :( any ideas on dvd playback? Itll play regular dvds but not uhh..adult ones [20:22] i had to install perl manually to get rid of threads [20:22] sylverfox, i think i had a similar problem with feisty... don't remember how i fixed it though [20:23] Is there a way to play udp in mplayer?= [20:23] ufff, i had it once fixed, just adding some lines to xorg.conf; this is whaz i'm asking for that file === bergheim is now known as tsb [20:23] nn: no, sorry [20:23] :( [20:23] raintheory: i try to see what i have done [20:23] why do I still have the ugly orange come up while I log in, even though I set my desktop and login colour to black? [20:23] How can I truncate a file to 0 bytes on the CLI? [20:23] raintheory: be right back [20:24] PuppiesAtWork: 'cat /dev/null >file' [20:24] PuppiesAtWork: touch somefilename [20:24] I think that's it [20:24] how do I get SCIM working with firefox/thunderbird ? [20:24] don't use that very much [20:24] also I grabbed the 'blue swirl' logon screen, but it doesn't appear to be recognised by gutsy [20:24] I had it working on fiesty [20:24] akince1: no, that's not it ( PuppiesAtWork ) [20:25] soundray: Interesting. When I do that for a file that doesn't exist, I get a 0 byte file [20:25] hello everyone [20:25] yo noob69 [20:25] akince1: that's not what the question was about, though [20:25] It doesn't truncate though [20:25] exactly [20:26] SCIM + firefox/thunderbird anyone? [20:27] hey can some1 tell me where i can i find a list of common commands and what they do? [20:27] !cli | hitman51 [20:27] hitman51: The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE). Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal [20:27] yea stuff like that... [20:27] heh [20:27] !* [20:27] what do i need to do to be able to see the mysql server (linux) from my Win XP client [20:27] thanks and also one more thing [20:27] soundray, is there a package i can install that contains the Debconf perl modules? [20:27] are you u guys experienced with ati graphics cards? [20:27] i have installed the odbc driver for win xp [20:27] what is the best cd burning program for ubuntu? [20:27] noob69, edit /etc/mysql/my.cnf , replace 127.0.0.1 by your ip, restart mysql [20:28] hitman51: have ati on my laptop [20:28] can i send you a pm [20:28] it get hectic in here [20:28] just ask in channel. Much better chance that someone can answer [20:28] i have a little problem,ubuntu dsnt see my monitor resolutions [20:29] is there a tool to make an install image of an existing ubuntu installation, to move it to a new computer? [20:29] hello. when i try to enable compiz in my 7.10 install it says i dont have composite extention installed. any ideas? [20:29] i must use nvidia settings every time to change resolution [20:29] installed my ati drivers but when i go to appearance > visual effects and click extra i get an error saying composite not available....what does that mean? and how do i fix it? [20:29] thats kinda weird [20:29] lunartear: they are in the debconf package. You've got a classic catch 22. How did you get into this situation? [20:30] soundray i told you [20:30] hi, i have an openvpn server running (on linux), it uses a tap device, now if i wish to connect with my laptop to the openvpn, i'm having some trouble routing the traffic through the correct interface, sometimes everything gets routed through the openvpn, sometimes through the original connection, and unless i can manually direct it (like with ping), i can't seem to set the priority of the interfaces? [20:30] hitman51: that i can answer :) The ati drivers in gutsy (or the newest for that matter iirc) dont support compiz [20:30] soundray i had to reinstall perl manually to get rid of threads [20:30] so where can i get drivers that support compiz? [20:31] soundray, how is it a catch 22 if the system installs it in a state without debconf in the first place [20:31] hitman51: or more precise, the fglrx drivers ATI have released. There are decent open source drivers for some of the ati cards iirc. Radeon series I think [20:31] lunartear: debconf is probably in the seed archive [20:31] hwat is wrong with my clock and date settings? I activated serveral time servers but I always get the wrong time... [20:32] soundray: seed archive? [20:32] where can i get them [20:32] i have ati raedon express 200 [20:33] lunartear: I have only rudimentary knowledge, but I think when you install, the first thing that goes onto your disk is a "seed" system that is unpacked from a .tar.gz === apecat_ is now known as apecat [20:33] soundray, well there's gotta be a way to install it [20:33] :( [20:33] umm Terrasqul u still there? [20:34] lunartear: anyway, what you should do is read man dpkg to find out how to unpack a package (sorry, I don't know how offhand) and put the components into place with cp [20:34] i have this other distro of linux installed on a laptop. can i try installing ubuntu over it, or will all sorts of things get messed up? [20:34] lunartear: the components of debconf, I mean [20:34] Hi I think I am having trouble with my pcmcia hardware. [20:34] I have a Belkin F5D7010 I read the wiki and installed the drivers as described I also went to the NDISWRAPPER site and read the information on the hardware. I tried the suggested realtek driver but NDISWRAPPER says it can't detect the hardware under that driver [20:34] I spoke with someone at the ndiswrapper channel who said I was likely haveing probs with my pcmcia hardware and suggested that I get the new utils prob is I don't know how to install them [20:34] can anyone help [20:35] Hello all [20:35] i guess he left :( [20:35] is there a tool to make an install image of an existing ubuntu installation, to move it to a new computer? [20:35] squirrelpimp, you mean an image [20:35] kim_: is your device listed when you type 'lspci' in a terminal? [20:36] no it isnt [20:36] Paddy_EIRE: tab completion ft [20:36] ftw [20:36] squirrelpimp, lol [20:36] soundray no it isnt [20:36] kim_: any trace of the PCMCIA subsystem in lspci output?

Version 0.6.4-17 (gutsy), package size 268 kB, installed size 944 kB [20:37] Hello from khartoum [20:37] thanks soundray [20:37] is it bad to use kde program on gnu? [20:37] no [20:37] FoSsiL: no [20:38] soundray this is all the output having to do with it...Ethernet controller: Belkin Unknown device 701f (rev 20) [20:38] !sound [20:38] 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).

Probably best to get a USB wifi adapter [20:38] what does that mean btw? [20:38] use kde on gnu? [20:38] Is there a guide to setting up Ubuntu optimally for older computers? =) [20:39] Jimmytakeover, he means kde apps in gnome [20:39] soundray it worked under windows [20:39] what command do you use to edit using gnome text editor to be able to save as su [20:39] !sudo | noob69 [20:39] noob69: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information. [20:40] yep, yep. in fact its safe to say my linux experience wouldnt be complete without a few useful kde apps like amaroK and kopete [20:40] kim_: okay, maybe it isn't then, but I can't really tell you where to begin if lspci doesn't list your PCMCIA bridge. Do feel free to ask the channel again, of course. [20:40] ok [20:41] hello [20:41] soundray, umm...regarding earlier, I was telling Sonjaaa to use a 3rd party windowz app for the reasons stated by sethk. I've never trusted ubuntu's installer/partitioner unless i've got a fresh disk exclusively for it [20:41] kim_: a generic hint is to go to http://www.tuxmobil.org and look for Linux installation reports on your specific model. Perhaps someone had the same problem and solved it. [20:42] I uninstalled and then installed compiz on my ubuntu 7.10, but it's still not working... how do I 'activate' the settings I've chosen? [20:42] Ok didnt try there yet [20:42] hi... How can I see if I'm running XGL AIGLX or FGLRX ? === Myrtti_ is now known as Myrtti [20:42] Jimmytakeover: my allegiance is quite the opposite. I've seen too many people crying their eyes out over botched Partition Magic results [20:43] zechs, sistem --> preferences --> Advanced Desktop... [20:43] Whitor, read the X log in /var/log [20:43] sethk: there is a command ... [20:43] Jimmytakeover: I trust ubiquity's partitioning with no hesitation [20:44] how does one get ls -la to list .hidden files first, then Capitalized files, then lowercase files? [20:44] jorgerosa of course I did that, but for example when I went to system --> prefs ---> appearance ---> visual effects, it wont let me use the "Extra" setting [20:44] Whitor, if you know the answer, why are you asking the question? Also, there are multiple ways of determining the same information. [20:44] Jimmytakeover: I trust open source more than partition magic. PM have a nasty habit of royally fucking up things [20:44] I am pretty sure this laptop can handle compiz, since my older thinkpad R51 could handle beryl, and this is a thinkpad X61 [20:44] Anyone able to help with http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=608760 ? [20:44] On the CLI, what is the difference between | and > ? [20:45] like, why do I do cat /dev/null > file.txt and not cat /dev/null | file.txt [20:45] so if i want to use gnome application Text Editor as a sudo user, what command usage do i type to run application text editor [20:45] PuppiesAtWork, because file.txt is not a command [20:45] PuppiesAtWork: | redirects from stdout to stdin, but > redirects stdout to a device / file [20:45] ah [20:45] soundray, me cool, man, me cool :D its just that i understand how fdisk and grub works individually better than have it done through ubiquity. if i use another distro like gentoo, i am always able to easily fix mbr/bootloader gotchas. [20:45] zechs, Ops, ok man. But plz check if 3D is avaiable, if not try restricted drivers [20:46] but for some reason i've never got the expected results with ubuntu installer :\ [20:46] PuppiesAtWork, | is a pipe. it means route the standard output from the left side of | to the standard input of the right side of | [20:46] i see [20:46] PuppiesAtWork: < redirects from device / file to stdin iirc :) [20:46] do you guys use such program like "Fslint" and "KleanSweep" to clean out linux? so which one is good? i need something like "Ccleaner" [20:46] PuppiesAtWork, there is a syntax |&, supported by some shells, which means redirect both standard out and standard error, so it can be a bit confusing. [20:47] So then "cat file.txt" would be the same as "cat < file.txt" ? [20:47] how do i route eth1:1 ip to be default?? [20:47] FoSsiL: rm -rf always seem to work fine for me [20:47] PuppiesAtWork, yes [20:47] hey everyone. how do i go about resetting a users gnome configuration? my user account can't seem to right click the desktop, i get no menu that drops down :/ [20:47] zechs, check if in "visual effects", "extra" and "custom" buttons are avayable, if not, you need drivers [20:47] also my wallpaper doesn't display [20:47] Andycass1, you use the route command to add a route, beginning with: route add default .... [20:48] Andycass1, the man page for route has examples [20:48] cyris: most of the gnome config is hidden in ~/.gnome [20:48] hey, am currently installing ubuntu onto a friend's pc, just wondering if there's an easy way to set it up so software (mainly from add/remove) will be installed onto his second hard disk (can't install ubuntu onto it, GRUB + old bios issues) [20:48] Terrasqu1: K i'll try that out [20:48] Hey, i just installed a fresh copy of ubuntu7.10, and i want to apply the compiz-manager, what packages should i install ? [20:48] i cant start azureus [20:48] sethhk: Ive seen the man page, I got very confused [20:48] JebJoya: it's not exactly easy, but there is a way [20:48] what does "rm -rf" do? do you have to provide a path to that? or it automatically searches for junk files? [20:48] Could you please give me an example synopsis [20:48] jorgerosa those buttons are there, but when i try selecting them after a bit it says "Desktop effects could not be enabled"--what kind of drivers would I be looking for? [20:48] Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/eclipse/swt/widgets/Display [20:49] how do i "restart" java to free up that thread [20:49] Terrasqu1: Wait a sec, I've deleted that directory and restarted, still can't set wallpapers or even right click the desktop background :/ [20:49] soundray: you got a link or search term? couldn't find anything when i googled... [20:49] cyris: is the issue there if you make a new user too? [20:49] JebJoya: no, sorry. I can give you a coarse outline, though [20:49] zechs, ok. it says that because you have no drivers... you are using Nvidia or ATI? [20:49] Andycass1, route add default gw ###.###.###.### the ### are the IP of eth1:1 [20:49] soundray: yeah, i'd be more than happy with that :) [20:50] Terrasqu1: Nope :/ [20:50] Andycass1, I left out a piece, wait [20:50] hi all [20:50] soundray: (so annoying about the bios issue though, kept getting a grub error 18 when it was installed on his new hdd) [20:50] Hey, i just installed a fresh copy of ubuntu7.10, and i want to apply the compiz-manager, what packages should i install ? [20:50] cyris: btw, renaming is usually better than deleting :) [20:50] sethk: Ive tried that command, didnt do the trick. When i ping, it resolves host's name into ip. I can ping LAN ip's though [20:50] jorgerosa I'm not even sure, lspci returns "Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics" [20:51] hello [20:51] zechs, ok, np. Lets do this... [20:51] Andycass1, route add default gw ###.###.###.### eth1:1 where ###.###.###.### is the IP of the gateway, not eth1:1 (sorry about the initial incorrect answer) [20:51] Terrasqu1: probably right, tho it remakes those dirs if they don't exist [20:51] is my screen really running at 50hz? [20:51] JebJoya: best to operate from a live CD. Create an ext3 partition on the second hard disk. From the installed root, copy /usr/* over to the new partition. Then edit /etc/fstab so it mounts the new partition at boot. [20:51] i recently changed from Ubuntu 7.04 (and was able to connect to printers via ip address direclty very easily) to ubuntu 7.10 and cannot get printers to connect via ipaddress [20:51] any suggestions? [20:52] cyris: Well.. If I was in your situation I would first check all the . files in the homedir, and nuke or rename everything that seems to be connected to gnome and similar. If that didnt help I would back up homedir data, and nuke the whole homedir [20:52] sethk, yes i got the right gateway and everything, but it still doesnt work [20:52] Terrasqu1: Ok i'll try that out [20:52] FoSsiL, what do you mean junkfiles? cached packages? [20:52] soundray: can't do it with a livecd (won't run) but i can work it with the alternate cd... think i can manage that [20:52] sethk: I think its IP fault, the first one is non standard, they are both on same netmask [20:52] hey all!! what packages should i install to start using the compiz-fusion effects on my desktop? [20:53] zechs, Go to "System" --> "Admnistration" --> "Restricted Drivers Manager", if is something there, please do "Apply" [20:53] Andycass1, yes, that's not allowed. If IP sees the packet as belonging to the local network, the routing table is not consulted. [20:53] JebJoya: you can do it from the booted system as well -- just make sure there is a clean cut and you don't use the old /usr/ anymore once it's copied over. [20:53] Terrasqu1: brb [20:53] Andycass1, if it's the local network, why do you care which interface it uses? [20:53] yeah, gparted will deal with it ok won't it? is everything installed to /usr/share then in general? [20:53] jorgerosa: that's not enough, i have done that, and till that i can't use the X server [20:54] cached packages, brokenlinks, temps, dependence programs, etc [20:54] Andycass1, you can reverse the order of defining the interfaces, then the second one will be first and will be used for local packets. [20:54] Hi Winterfelf, i noticed on 7.04 i added compiz and other 3d effect and they worked great, i had to manually install a video driver on this old Dell 8100 im running it on, but it worked great, for what ever reason, i can t get the preset of compiz to work on 7.10 [20:54] sylverfox, ok... let me search here... [20:54] is there a way to change my refresh rate higher then 50 hz? [20:54] spiderfire, of course [20:54] jorgerosa: as my xorg.conf changes from "nv" from "nvidia" after reboot, i get to Failsafe [20:54] sethk: I need the first one to be the non standard, thanks to this, I can watch IPTV [20:54] spiderfire, at 50hz I'd die of migrain in about two hours. [20:54] hello [20:54] hi Spiderfire, check to makesure you use the newest video card drivers (may need restricted ones) [20:54] The second one should give me access to the internet, but it doesnt [20:54] JebJoya: no, the majority of files in each package go somewhere under /usr -- to check whether this is true for an individual package, look at dpkg -L packagename [20:55] im noob on ubuntu and i need some hlep [20:55] jorgerosa I see only the message "Your hardware does not need any restricted drivers" [20:55] no matter that i have installed, the restricted driver [20:55] The same technique worked in xp.. [20:55] jorgerosa and there's just a "close" button [20:55] Andycass1, I'm confused. If the both have the same netmask, either interface can talk to the gateway. [20:55] hello, ?m noob on ubuntu and ? need some help [20:55] Andycass1, so as long as the default route is to the gateway ... [20:55] i dont think its possible to get this at a better refresh rate [20:55] newbee: feel free to ask, be precise, and keep it all on one line. [20:55] zechs, ok. 1 sec [20:55] soundray: ah, ok, cool, but all in /usr then :) I'll get this set up later this evening - thanks for the help soundray :) (almost went with the eBay style GREAT SERVICE A++++++++++ thing, but decided against it ;) ) [20:55] anyone want to help my ubuntu ?nstall plz pm me [20:56] how I can have root gate in freenode??? [20:56] Andycass1, eth1:1 is a virtual interface (that is, it isn't a separate card) so, performance-wise, it makes no difference which interface is used to talk to the gateway. [20:56] i recently changed from Ubuntu 7.04 (and was able to connect to printers via ip address direclty very easily) to ubuntu 7.10 and cannot get printers to connect via ipaddress [20:56] any suggestions? [20:56] JebJoya: yw [20:56] hm okay, so i should just switch em? [20:57] hello word [20:57] i'm a new ubuntu user :D [20:57] hey yall [20:57] zechs, this helps? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=3767658 [20:57] newbee: it doesn't work that way. You have to ask a question. [20:57] my password to unlock the keyboard as my primary user is not my su password, what gives? [20:57] sethk: Oh my god, the weirdest thing happened, it just started working [20:57] soundray: do you have any experience running joost on ubuntu? [20:57] jorgerosa: are you looking in the forums, for some help? [20:57] where i find hardware of touchpad of my laptop? [20:57] FiyaHazard: no. Remind me what it is? [20:58] sethk: I didnt change any settings for the last 2 hours, though i tried pingig it about 10 min ago and it didnt work [20:58] Anyone know about TCP printing in Ubuntu 7.10 ? [20:58] Hey. [20:58] sylverfox, sry i was with zechs. Can u say again plz? [20:59] soundray: Joost is an online tv project by the skype guys http://www.joost.com/ its designed for windows but ive heard of people making it work on ubuntu using wine, ive been trying but i cant get it to launch the install goes smooth. [20:59] i ve intalled ubuntu on my computer and i ve finished all the process, however i can not boot ubuntu when i open my computer, even my windows has damaged by ubuntu and i cant open my pc, now i ve managed to open my pc with ubuntu anyway, and im at installing process again. where should i be careful? [20:59] winterelf try https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CommonQuestions#head-23187ff8609335c10dbb55c6cdc4c1f47fddcda0 [20:59] jorgerosa: sure, so when the driver "nv" changes to "nvidia" in my xorg.conf, and after i reboot i get in Failsafe [20:59] on Ubuntu 7.10 gaim changed to Pidgin.. I have difficulties with file transfer on Pidgin.. Do you have any idea why this is it? [20:59] jorgerosa Ok I'll give that a try =) [20:59] zechs, :) [20:59] jorgerosa: even i have the driver installed [20:59] #ensiie [21:00] FiyaHazard: sorry, I'm no good with wine [21:00] sylverfox, r u using restricted NVidia drivers? [21:00] i ve intalled ubuntu on my computer and i ve finished all the process, however i can not boot ubuntu when i open my computer, even my windows has damaged by ubuntu and i cant open my pc, now i ve managed to open my pc with ubuntu anyway, and im at installing process again. where should i be careful? [21:00] * soundray drinks wine, that's all [21:00] jorgerosa: yes [21:00] sylverfox, oOoOo, should work fine... let me see... [21:00] soundray: its ok :) [21:01] jorgerosa: my aim is to have 3D, nothing else [21:01] jorgerosa: if you have any other solution ok for me [21:01] newbee: accept the defaults for the grub bootloader installation, and all should be ok [21:01] sylverfox, you only havent 3D that is? but you can access to desktop, right? [21:01] newbee: have you already started installing the second time? [21:02] no [21:02] pezz_ im sorry but im a noob and i dunno where to accept that :) [21:02] i get to failsafe [21:02] jorgerosa: i get to failsafe, and that generates me a temporary xorg.conf [21:02] hey silverfox, that sound like what happened to me [21:02] markon: what did you do? [21:03] newbee: have you already started installing the second time? [21:03] soundray: not yet [21:03] newbee: at the latter stage of ubuntu installation, you will be asked some quations about how you want the bootloader 9grub) to be installed, amnd where. Just accept the defaults. It should detect your windows installation too. [21:03] soundray: i ve also dont know how to reply ::) [21:03] * genii sips a coffee [21:03] sylverfox, ok. You tried: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg ? [21:03] (grub), no 9grub) [21:03] honestly i ended up wiping and reinstalling ubuntu, and left it without compiz [21:03] but you can boot into failsage set your video card to a vga generic card [21:03] newbee: let's see if we can rescue your first installation. Can you open a terminal (Applications-Accessories) [21:04] then boot normally and set it back to the one that owkrd [21:04] i need ie 6 for ubuntu, can anyone help me? [21:04] hello! [21:04] soundray: ok i ve opened it [21:04] is there anyone from Canonical or is it just the community ?

[21:05] ? [21:05] jorgerosa: by default it recognises "vesa" and not "nvidia" [21:05] newbee: now get a list of your partitions with 'sudo fdisk -l'. [21:05] Some_Person: what is the problem [21:05] !ie [21:05] For Irish whiskey and ubuntu support, visit #ubuntu-ie, Ta an uisce beatha agus cuidiú Ubuntu ar #ubuntu-ie, Béag fáilte ort [21:05] newbee: do you see a line that begins with /dev/hda1 ? [21:05] Is there anyone from Canonical here ? [21:05] ikonia: I want XGL to start before GDM instead of the default after you log in [21:05] MicrosoftSUX: google for the ie4linux script this will install ie for you all it does is prompt you for y or n [21:05] Some_Person: why ? [21:05] silverfox im currely using NV as the driver choice (i think its like a legacy version), not the nvidia option [21:06] I'm trying to burn a backup of one of my DVDs that is 7 gigs. Is there a program for linux like clonedvd that will auto shrink it and still keep the menus? [21:06] how can I ssh into another box, and keep my highlighting in doing an ls command? [21:06] because I think there is a bug inside Ubuntu 7.10 [21:06] markon: nv is not legacy [21:06] MicrosoftSUX: also install wine first [21:06] markon: the same i use, but i want 3D if my card could do it [21:06] soundray: i sav dev/sda 1 to dev/sda5 [21:06] neverblue: execute the login shell on ssh in [21:06] ikonia: I hate the black screen that appears for several secs and also it would make Ubuntu log in faster [21:06] i have a Nvidia Fx5200 [21:06] Hello ??? [21:06] ikonia, sorry ?

The line beginning with /dev/sda1 -- does it end in "HPFS/NTFS"? [21:07] Iknoia... Ah thank you, was not sure.... but im trying to find that article i used to get the 3d working in my 7.04 [21:07] Some_Person: your asking a tricky question in that the invididual user settings that are loaded post login determain your desktop config [21:07] OK, I will if there is nothing else to do... [21:07] soundray: yeah [21:07] sylverfox, yep. But after you donne with the X Server settings, check (read) if it saves the file, or not. Somethimes he says he cant save the file... etc... This info could appear and desappear really fast... [21:07] jorgerosa: did you get my message? the xorg reconfiguring tool, recognise vesa as my driver [21:07] Here is my problem : I've just installed Ubuntu 7.10 on my desktop [21:07] markon: nv is the open source version of the nvidia drivers [21:07] hi [21:08] should i change it to nvidia? [21:08] newbee: good. What's the Device in the first line that says "Linux" under System? [21:08] ikonia: On Feisty, you had to manually edit some file that would do it. On Gutsy, the new horrible default settings take over. [21:08] and I had the sound recognized, with "Automatic detection" in the administration/sound menu [21:08] markon, so are you able to make 3D work? [21:08] The sound was worjing good on my Sound Blaster Audigy 1 (SB0090) [21:09] hello [21:09] then, I installed the "proprietary driver" for accelerated graphics access on my nvidia Geforce 4 [21:09] should i change it to nvidia? you have to try 2 ways (could be nvidia or nv) [21:09] newbee: can you join me in #ubuntu-classroom? It's quiet there. [21:09] ikonia, you seem to be running yourself thin :) [21:09] could someone help me install beryl? [21:09] neverblue: nah [21:09] the one Ubuntu downloads before installing [21:09] ikonia, or just getting warmed up :) [21:09] ikonia: Where is the default X-session script for Gutsy? [21:09] ubuntu1337: beryl is dead [21:09] neverblue: the latter [21:09] haha [21:09] It installed correctly but ... [21:10] so abotu highlighting.... [21:10] about* [21:10] ubuntu1337, sudo apt-get install compiz [21:10] beryl is dead?? but i thought beryl was awesome :/ [21:10] after nvidia drivers installation, the sound was no more working [21:10] Some_Person: not sure I follow what your asking [21:10] ubuntu1337: beryl joined compiz [21:10] ubuntu1337, beryl is now compwiz-fusion [21:10] neverblue: the highlighting is part of the .bash_profile thats excuted on login, it normally aliases ls to "ls --color" [21:10] ubuntu1337, beryl is now compiz-fusion [21:10] Any GTK-theming experts in the house? [21:10] compiz is already the newest version. [21:11] Hi all. I'm new to linux. And im trying to launch Ubuntu 7.10 [21:11] neverblue: so when you login via ssh you need to make sure you execute a login shell so that .bash_profile is executed or alias it yourself [21:11] soundray: im sorry i got connection problems [21:11] ikonia, but when done on a server that I ssh into, doesnt work [21:11] jorgerosa: it asks me for how many KB has the garfical card, it is a 128MB card; what should i write? [21:11] !lighthttpd [21:11] Sorry, I don't know anything about lighthttpd - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [21:11] But I get alot of errors and the GUI wont start [21:11] !lighttpd [21:11] Sorry, I don't know anything about lighttpd - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [21:11] Hi Silversox...sorry for the delay [21:11] so I have no .bash_profile on the server, do I need to create it?

[21:12] not sure if that will work in 7.10 but worth a try, just backup beforehand [21:12] and when the system starts or shuts down i don't have the default logon logout sounds ! [21:12] uhm. i just clicked 'enable desktop effects' and my screen went white. [21:12] Im having an issue where i keep getting a 403 error (forbidden) when accessing full folders on my lighttpd server even after setting the folder to 777 [21:12] jorgerosa: there is none default, it is empty, shall i leave it empty then? [21:12] any ideas? [21:12] soundray: i think im being a headache for u, i better install it again [21:12] sylverfox, yep [21:12] neverblue: spot on [21:12] what shall I do to get back the system logon logout sounds ? [21:12] I'm running out of space on my partition, but re-sizing could take days. I can install a new hard drive, but want it to integrate with my existing filesystem. Can i make this new hard drive ext3 and use it as an "extension" to the original drive, or do i have to move /home on to it? [21:12] markon, sure, and thanks [21:12] good luck [21:12] my local .bash_profile just has .bashrc in it [21:13] newbee: not at all [21:13] '.bashrc' [21:13] how do i enable and start using beryl? === T1m is now known as T1m0thy [21:13] neverblue: ok - so it sources .bashrc - check your .bashrc file [21:13] Anyone i could pm with? a little hard to keep track here.

[21:13] soundray: i ve better to install again thanks for help [21:14] ubuntu1337: beryl has been replaced with compiz-fusion which is already in ubuntu 7.10 [21:14] ubuntu1337: beryl is dead. long live compiz-fusion [21:14] Iknoia.... was Beryl merged with Compiz or they just dropped Beryl [21:14] has anyone read what i've just wrote ?

[21:15] neverblue: no - you don't need .bashrc just the colour line [21:15] ikonia, oh [21:15] soundray: then i will cry :):):) [21:15] if anyone is a master at ubuntu system settings, may we talk in private ? Because I don't think anyone has followed what i've written above === OldPink is now known as markeez [21:15] jorgerose, care to help me then?

[21:16] newbee: it's a bit hard going if you're new, but you can ask others in here to help. [21:16] neverblue: its not, I'm just making it clear so there is no-missunderstanding [21:16] !patience | yannic1 [21:16] yannic1: The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines [21:16] hmm [21:16] ubuntu1337, sistem --> preferences --> Appearence --> Visual Effects [21:17] what is wine? [21:17] neverblue: so your confident with what you have to do [21:17] so I just dont copy the .bashrc (local) to the server, and reference it in .bash_profile [21:17] !wine >MicrosoftSUX [21:17] as that doesnt work... [21:17] soundray: wow great really thank;) [21:17] jorgerosa, i dont have that either [21:17] ubotu: I understand, but I think other people that installs the Nvidia drivers may have the same problem than mine with the sound [21:17] neverblue: no - just put the one line from .bashrc that sets the aslias in your .bash_profile on the server [21:17] ubuntu1337, turn on "custom" [21:17] sounrday: i hope i can handle with it [21:17] MicrosoftSUX: wine is windows emulator on Linux [21:17] ikonia, im trying now [21:17] tantradnya: its not an emmunlator [21:17] is wine hard to use? [21:18] MicrosoftSUX: debatable [21:18] ikonia, yes I have a bunch of networked printers here at work and I usually print to them via IP address (in windows i connect them via IP address, not thru a print server, in Ubuntu 7.04 i was able to conect them using hp direct connect/tcpip connect/.. but 7.10 has a different printer configuration look [21:18] tantradnya, WINE: WINE is Not an Emulator. :) [21:18] MicrosoftSUX, are forks hard to use? :-D [21:18] jorgerosa: i have system -> preferences -> desktop effects. and when i click 'enable' [21:18] pls klick it and send it to other friends thanl you http://www.pennergame.de/ref.php?refid=1831663 [21:18] MicrosoftSUX: sometimes the bottle is hard to open, but once you've managed to pour it, it's very intuitive [21:18] ikonia, lovely :) [21:18] markon: I've not played with printing on 7.10 [21:18] jorgerosa: this is what i get, after finishing the X reconfiguration: "overwriting possibly-customised configuration [21:18] file; backup in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.20071114231535" [21:18] pls klick it and send it to other friends thanl you http://www.pennergame.de/ref.php?refid=1831663 [21:18] my screen goes white [21:18] wine is simple, just remeber to rrun, wine *.exe in cli [21:18] pls klick it and send it to other friends thanl you http://www.pennergame.de/ref.php?refid=1831663 [21:18] pls klick it and send it to other friends thanl you http://www.pennergame.de/ref.php?refid=1831663 [21:18] MicrosoftSUX: scnr [21:18] soundray: would u mind to give me a hint while im installing? [21:18] neverblue: I'm just printing via dns names [21:19] newbee: not at all, just ask [21:19] neverblue: sorry, not for you [21:19] sylverfox, that means all is ok, now restart your pc. [21:19] soundray: lol [21:19] MicrosoftSUX: WINE is not really hard to use. winefix makes it just a little easier too [21:19] markon: I'm printing via dns names and cups on 7.10 [21:19] So what can I do about that. My windows runs ok. [21:19] jorgerosa: ok, brb [21:19] sylverfox, ok [21:19] I use vmware server and want to play with virtualbox in ubuntu to work with windows apps [21:20] MicrosoftSUX: just install wine first. run winecfg from terminal then just run the ie4linux script. the script does all the setup stuff i believe [21:20] could someone please help me enable beryl? [21:20] Iknoia Ahh thank you i have not tried DNS names....ill try that [21:20] thank you [21:20] ubuntu1337: beryl is dead [21:20] ikonia, np, whatever helps to get your typing spee up :D [21:20] ok sorry "Wine is compatibility layer for running Windows programs on Linux" [21:20] markon: cups likes dns names [21:20] ikonia: i want the kool effects. please tell me how [21:20] ubuntu1337, are you using ubuntu 7.10? [21:20] it's been a long time since i try to use Linux, but i'm always stopped by hardware full compatibility, even if drivers (free or proprietary) are available, which is amazing. Linux has grown so much, but seems not good enough after installation (i mean i always need to fix one or two things). While I still have the same hardware, sadly :-( [21:20] ubuntu1337: do not try to install beryl, that is impossible. Only.. try to realize the truth. There is no beryl [21:20] ubuntu1337: use compiz-fusion, its already part of 7.10 [21:20] i have 7.04 [21:21] yannic1: do you have a question or are you just making statments [21:21] and i want kool effects on the version im using now. [21:21] ubuntu1337: the upgrade will serve you well [21:21] hmm [21:21] ubuntu1337: you can install the compiz config manager to give you a nice beryl like config menu [21:21] ubuntu1337, ok, lol, 1 sec... [21:21] im running a live-cd [21:21] ubuntu1337: ive heard anyway ;p [21:21] ikonia should i use IPP or HPjetdirect / app socket or lpd [21:21] ubuntu1337: there is no point installing things like beryl on the livecd [21:22] i just want to test it [21:22] ola boa noite a todos :) [21:22] markon: if its HP printers, hpjetdirect should work well [21:22] before i install [21:22] ubuntu1337: bad to test that on the livecd [21:22] hi how can i setup a dns server [21:22] yet. i want to.. [21:22] soundray: i ve a important question. what which file type should i select? ntfs? fat 32? which one would be better for me? === markeez is now known as OldPink [21:22] ikonia, thank you ill let you knwo what happens [21:22] ubuntu1337: then read the guide on https://help.ubuntu.com [21:22] how do i get the config manager? [21:22] ubuntu1337: there are also many posts on the forums [21:22] fs for what? [21:22] It may be semantics, but WINE _is_ by definition an emulator [21:22] newbee: stay with the default, ext3 [21:22] and emulator of Windows APIs that is [21:22] akince1: yes, [21:23] wine is an open api stack that gives basically same functionality as the closed win32 apis i think.. am i wrong? [21:23] akince1: its a reimplentation of the windows api [21:23] which makes it what? [21:23] ubuntu1337, go to “Synaptic Package Manager” search for “compiz” [21:23] akince1: a library, and a wrapper [21:23] A compatability layer and not an emulator [21:23] sylverfox, wb, all ok? [21:23] semantics [21:24] jorgerosa: i get to failsafe again after finishing with nvidia [21:24] emulator != CPU environment [21:24] sylverfox, damm [21:24] If you want an emulator get a vm [21:24] jorgerosa: i already have compiz i tell you [21:24] jorgerosa: i don't think that will work even with nv [21:24] sylverfox, try again but choose nv [21:24] ubuntu1337: what do you want then ? [21:24] but how do i use it? [21:24] jorgerosa: ok [21:25] ubuntu1337: read the guide on https://help.ubuntu.com [21:25] http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=emulator&x=0&y=0 [21:25] where do i open it and actually start the kewl effects [21:25] ubuntu1337: or the MANY posts on www.ubuntuforums.org [21:25] Well, my question is "what made nvidia proprietary drivers installation (the one ubuntu proposes us) break the sound 'automatic detection' ?" [21:25] its easier for me if you just tell me :p [21:25] w00t! got all my music library converted to OGG [21:25] yannic1: nothing should, do you have an nvidia sound card ? [21:25] ubuntu1337: read [21:25] ikonia ok im an dumb, i have been fighting with this this whole time (2 hours, thinking it was nto printing...guess what it was,... someone else who i guess beat me to the printer was tossing out my test pages [21:25] * soundray wishes Ubuntu had never gone down the effects route. It attracts the wrong kind of interest. [21:25] ubuntu1337: the point is people ger tierd of repeating thems selvs [21:25] soundray: agree [21:25] nope, i have a sound blaster audigy 1. [21:26] hi i need the command who shows all tasks who are running with pid's not top i need more since the one im looking for doesent show there [21:26] and nvidia geforce 4200 ti [21:26] markon: well done, easy to fooled by stuff like that [21:26] bmk789: and why would you do that? unless you reripped the audio you just spent lots of time degrading the quality :) [21:26] sanguisde1, not not not me. I like repeating myself. I like repeating myself. I like repeating myself. :) [21:26] but [21:26] schlumpf-: ps aux [21:26] what would the package name be for version 2 of apache-perl? [21:26] ikonia i feel soo stupid and wasted your time on here [21:26] thx soundray [21:26] lunartear: the detault is apache2 [21:26] sanguisde1, avoid redundency, don't talk in rhyme, it's quicker, and it takes less time [21:26] markon: never a waste and it wasn't stupid [21:26] dumb question, but can someone please explain 'isk I/O' for me? [21:26] ikonia wow i could stangle that user [21:26] ikonia, that is apache-perl version 2? [21:26] jorgerosa: i got the same answer: "xserver-xorg postinst warning: overwriting possibly-customised configuration [21:26] file; backup in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.20071114232410 [21:26] " [21:26] ikonia and jorgerosa: when i click 'enable desktop effects' like the giude says, my screen goes white for some time, then back to normal. please help? [21:27] j0hn: this is ubuntu support - not hardware lessons [21:27] lunartear: yup [21:27] jorgerosa: no i will reboot [21:27] ubuntu1337: READ [21:27] hrm ok thanks [21:27] lunartear: have you been able to repair your debconf? [21:27] I DID READ [21:27] ikonia oh well thank you,.. on to more fun with Ubuntu [21:27] ubuntu1337, you cant 7.04 has no compiz by default, unless you upgrade for v. 7.10, else you must go to "System", "Administration", "Synaptic package Manager" and sarch there for compiz [21:27] before i installed the drivers via ubuntu proposition, the sound worked well (system->preferences->sound->preferences with "automatic detection") [21:27] markon: enjoy [21:27] ty [21:27] soundray yes using aptitude [21:27] is there anyway to get my firefox up and running [21:27] sethk: that is a much nicer rhyme then the old standard of RTFM [21:27] sanguisde1, I agree. :) [21:27] ubuntu1337: you've not, your getting tiresome, read the forums and the ubuntu wiki that has excellent guides in [21:27] Silverfox did you get anywhere with the 3d stuff? [21:27] i click on it and it tries to start but stops [21:27] lunartear: wow - apt-get failed, but aptitude worked? [21:27] now i must put the options to "ADC Capture/..." [21:27] yes firefox IS installed [21:28] soundray yep [21:28] markon, not yet, but still hopeing [21:28] soundray: im at the last stage of installing, its just one click away from me and i ve not face with any boot selection yet. should i scared? [21:28] dude, jorgerosa. i did sudo apt-get install compiz, and it says i have the latest version. i do like the guides online tell me to do, and that's when a problem occurs. [21:28] you read :x [21:28] lunartear: that's amazing, well done [21:28] can I just add all my local .bashrc into the remote .bash_profile, and I can have the same 'setup' remotely as I do locally ? [21:28] and i don't have the system sounds anymore (logon logout) [21:28] ubuntu1337: you've got it installed, read the guides on how to use it [21:28] neverblue: sure [21:28] ubuntu1337: more then compiz is required to get the effects going [21:28] i did read [21:28] ubuntu1337: you've not read [21:28] i just accidentally rm'ed a file from my home dir (ext3 fs) is there any way to recover it? [21:28] don't lie or waste peoples time [21:28] newbee: no. All that can happen is that it doesn't work (it won't explode) [21:28] degreseven: no [21:29] ubuntu1337, ok we believe in you, lol, let me see here... [21:29] i didnt know that, thats why i asked [21:29] ubuntu1337: I will give you a hint to add to your search xgl [21:29] u give ubuntu a bad name [21:29] lol [21:29] j0hn: isn't that a bon jovi song ? [21:29] nope [21:30] soundray: its better if it explode otherwise i should break my pc with axe :) , i feel like im stupid i just cant solve such a easy problem [21:30] ubuntu1337: one as 1337 as you should be able to fix things like that blindfolded and with your hands tied === snot_ is now known as snot [21:30] ikonia: is a german release not for the yanks [21:30] ikonia, and there is no need for a .bashrc on the remote server [21:30] im a windows-guy [21:30] newbee: it's not easy, but solvable [21:30] look, i thought this was a friendly community and i came here for help [21:30] sorry if im not as good as you [21:30] neverblue: no "need" but thats how ubuntu chooses to set it up [21:30] j0hn: whats the question [21:30] j0hn: please, what's the problem? [21:30] j0hn: no-one is putting you down, that I've seen [21:30] jorgerosa: :-( Failsafe again [21:30] dumb question, but can someone please explain 'isk I/O' for me? [21:30] I'm sorry. I don't mean to annoy. But should I ask my question again? [21:31] j0hn, don't generalize what one person says to everyone. [21:31] ubuntu1337: Do you 1) Have 7.10 installed 2) Have a 3D accelerated enabled driver for your card installed and 3) Have effects turned on via the System > Preferences > Appearance > Visual Effects tab? [21:31] jorgerosa: didn't work with nv also [21:31] yeah [21:31] ubuntu1337, ok, go back to synaptic manager, and find if "- compiz-fusion-plugins-extra" and "- compiz-fusion-plugins-main" are installed [21:31] j0hn: no, this is a channel for ubuntu related questions, not general hardware/linux lessons [21:31] Disk I/O [21:31] j0hn, you don't mean "disk I/O"? [21:31] j0hn: there are plenty of generic channels [21:31] sylverfox, oh man... [21:31] i dont know what it is [21:31] j0hn, can you be more specific? [21:31] j0hn, maybe in a context, perhaps ? [21:31] j0hn: I/O is for input / output. What's the issue? [21:31] j0hn: disk input / output. Reading and writing to the harddisk [21:31] join #ubuntu-it [21:31] <_4a42_> j0hn: do you mean disk I/O? [21:31] well, as no one seems able to resolve my problem, i'm then gonna send a bug report to Ubuntu (and i don't think they'll answer because there must be other bugs more critical than mine) [21:31] j0hn: ##linux is general linux discussion channel for example [21:31] j0hn, that's usually a performance statistic about how much data has been transferred to/from disk and/or the performance of those transfers, or both [21:32] jorgerosa, they are not [21:32] ok, thank you Terrasqul [21:32] j0hn, there is also #linuxhelp [21:32] sylverfox, ok, aplly restricted drivers and reboot (only after 40 seconds) [21:32] * neverblue tosses ikonia a can of O2 [21:32] sethk: a better option than ##linux [21:32] ikonia, are you sure apache2 is "version 2 of apache-perl"? I see no mention of perl in the output of apache2 -V [21:32] jorgerosa: ok, i will [21:32] yannic: your sound wen tout? [21:32] i thought it might be that, but i never heard it before [21:32] went out [21:32] lunartear: it /should be/ [21:32] anyway thanks to the community and forums on the internet ;-) [21:32] ikonia, well, I'm there, so of course it's a better option. :) I'm not only good, I'm very modest. [21:32] lunartear: apache2 is the defalt for ubuntu [21:32] lunartear: so the modules should be defaulting to apache2 too [21:33] j0hn: you left earlier before I could say something else about disk temperatures [21:33] lunartear: but I can't promise [21:33] jorgerosa: i did enabled now, waiting with the reboot [21:33] ikonia: what else would you use? O_O [21:33] hello everyone! I have been having a strange issue since I switched to ubuntu. Many internet apps simply won't detect my internet connection, but most will. Firefox is fine, Piggin is fine, nmap, ettercap, virtualbox, miro and many others work fine but I had to try several bittorrent clients before I could find one that worked, as well seemingly random apps just won't detect an internet connection. Azereus wi [21:33] ll not see the net no matter what I do, nor will filezilla (yet deluge and gFTP work fine) or, worst of all, google earth as I have no alternative here. Has anyone else experienced anything like this? [21:33] macogw: use for what sorry ? [21:33] ikonia: webserver [21:33] soundray: its better if it explode otherwise i should break my pc with axe :) , i feel like im stupid i just cant solve such a easy problem [21:33] macogw: apache is the best available option for generic use [21:33] macogw: in my opinion [21:33] sylverfox, you made apply, right? [21:33] Silverfox maybe this will help [21:33] macogw: lighttpd? :) [21:33] http://kevin.vanzonneveld.net/techblog/article/enable_compizfusion_in_ubuntu_feisty/ [21:33] sure [21:34] music_man: do you have a proxy? [21:34] ok [21:34] newbee: have you finished installing now? [21:34] music_man, tried ktorrent ? [21:34] macogw: no thats the stange thing [21:34] hi guys, i was trying to compile some c for school, but i get error. not finding anything libs...time.h, signal.h, unistd.h [21:34] what package am i missing? [21:34] j0hn: sorry missed your question, could you please repeat [21:34] j0hn: not exactly, but do you know how to convert? [21:34] i dont have a graphics card. does that matter? [21:34] eliasz: do you have build-essential installed? [21:35] macogw, no idea, just switched to ubuntu, used to be in gentoo so it was all tehre [21:35] eliasz: you need to install the "buildessential" package to get the header files for development [21:35] ill get it [21:35] how please? [21:35] soundray: no i ve not jsut click the button i want to ask, i saw a advanced button it which asks me a device for boot loader and its chosen (hd0) [21:35] ubuntu1337, you must be joking man! i kill you! If u dont have GFX card you just cant enable Bryl, oh, life... [21:36] what is gfx? [21:36] my question was what is disk I/O and how to get hddtemp to show in farenheight in corky [21:36] ubuntu1337: graphics [21:36] ubuntu1337, :) you could say it first. lol [21:36] j0hn: (celsius value) *9/5 + 32 = (fahrenheit value) [21:36] macogw, ikonia Thanks worked :D [21:36] i on my moms computer, and there is just no graphics card.. [21:36] ubuntu1337: That's why I asked that question earlier but you didn't answer [21:36] newbee: hd0 should be okay [21:36] lol 1337 [21:36] what q? [21:36] j0hn: /whois j-rock that is teh guy who developed conky [21:36] I'm not good at math :( [21:36] soundray: ok im installing now [21:36] j0hn: I don't know the answer myself but I know a many who does ;) [21:36] ubuntu1337: None at all? Now that's funny [21:36] ubuntu1337: how do you use it with no graphics card? headless server and you ssh in? [21:36] why does it matter? why cant i run beryl? [21:36] ubuntu1337, im sure it have GFX only is not enought for Beryl, see? [21:37] well.. [21:37] ubuntu1337: I get the impression your starting to troll [21:37] ubuntu1337: in a terminal: lspci | grep VGA [21:37] how do i find out what card i have? [21:37] ubuntu1337: because your monitor cant display anything at all, let alone beryl, if you lack a graphics card [21:37] /whois j-rock [21:37] j0hn: thats it === patlkli is now known as patlkli|zZzZzZ [21:37] uhm, vga? [21:37] lspci might work [21:37] im a n00b [21:37] ubuntu1337, sorry man, that is the way things work, for Beryl [21:37] ubuntu1337, run compiz instead, since beryl is obsolete, more or less [21:37] ubuntu1337: run that command [21:37] oops you beet met to it crdlb [21:37] **Can someone point me in the right direction, I have ubuntu authenticating against active directory for longons. How do I get the user folder to map to the users folder on my windows server? [21:37] j0hn: he's a really nice guy too [21:37] /whois j-rock [21:38] "lspci | grep VGA" [21:38] but where do i put that?? [21:38] j0hn: no space in front [21:38] Goosemoose: you need a script in the "netlogon" share [21:38] j0hn: try without the leading space [21:38] ok [21:38] j0hn: in your irc client [21:38] crdlb: [21:38] 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] 330 [Xabre] PCI/AGP VGA Display Adapter (rev 01) [21:38] Goosemoose: Do you have that authentication happening at the Ubuntu login screen? [21:38] ikonia, have a website with an example i can look at? [21:38] hi [21:38] ubuntu1337: that cannot run beryl or compiz [21:38] ARGH [21:38] why not [21:38] ubuntu1337, remember with no GFX you cand do it with Beryl or compiz [21:38] Goosemoose: not off the top of my head, but there are a few out there [21:38] thanks [21:38] ubuntu1337: because it has limited 3d support (if any) [21:39] j0hn: he's really nice and helpful [21:39] jorgerosa: i think does pass 40 seconds :-) so i try to reboot [21:39] aint that a biotch :/ [21:39] ubuntu1337: because its a piece of cheapness that was never meant to run anything more intense than ms word [21:39] im new to irc so not sure what to do [21:39] sylverfox, oh still there, for sure man :) [21:39] i told you, its my mums computer.. [21:39] its ages old [21:39] j0hn: join the channel he's in and ask him === Q_Continuum_ is now known as Q_Continuum [21:39] no point in installing linux then [21:39] ill stick to xp [21:40] ubuntu1337, lmao. Go to bed now, man :) [21:40] ubuntu1337: Linux can make an older machine go much further than proprietary inferiors, but it isn't magic [21:40] thats windows [21:40] for those that didnt know that [21:40] ubuntu1337: enjoy === alexandre is now known as lemke [21:40] * soundray ponders that for some, Windows is the wise choice [21:40] * DShepherd agress soundray . [21:40] agrees* [21:41] only thing is, i cant find out where i set the Hz rate in windows xp. ubuntu makes it so easy. in xp, the screen flickers :( [21:41] DShepherd: I've never publicly admitted it before. :) [21:41] do es anyone recommend the restricted drivers for GeForce2 MX/MX 400 or a different one in order for compiz to work in ubuntu 7.10 [21:41] ubuntu1337: Enjoy your proprietary chains.

[22:52] Hey i need some help [22:52] onionr; what is your question? [22:52] noelferreira: open of smb.conf in a text editor [22:52] oxeimon, if you really need it you can try installing the ones from the site.. or use envy to install it. http://albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html [22:52] I just reinstalled my computer and in nvidia-settings its not letting me set the correct resolution of my screen [22:53] I am running dual displays [22:53] Ademan: because as I tried to get there using console commands Konsole cant list or access this folder!!! BRB need 10 min but plz go on with answer. Try on your system if U have wine Program Files is not accessible [22:53] It had everything working before i reinstalled [22:53] sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg...Lifeisfunny .. now what should I input as keyboard options? [22:53] onionr; what options does it give you and what option do you need? [22:53] eck: Couldn't configure pre-depend debconf-2.0 for lvm2, probably a dependency cycle. [22:53] E: Couldn't configure pre-depend debconf-2.0 for lvm2, probably a dependency cycle. [22:53] ndube: no i need 1680*1050 [22:53] orionr; on one monitor...? [22:54] its not detecting the kind of monitor that it is. it just saying CRT-0 [22:54] retour: so you're doing ls ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files ? or trying to cd into Program\ Files and then ls from there? [22:54] the other monitor is working fine [22:54] noelferreira: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/162706 [22:54] its a wide screen. [22:54] DShepherd: Mainly I'm just wondering why isn't not in the repository yet. [22:54] DShepherd: is there any reason I shouldn't install it? [22:54] retour: also you might want to check that you have read permission set on ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files because that's what allows you to ls it, executable permissions on a folder allow you to cd to it [22:55] do you think i should change the value in my xorg.conf file manually to the right resolution? [22:55] abo, with feisty, I do recall that you go through keyboard selection with sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg [22:55] oxeimon, well the version is new.. with new features. Ubuntu Gutsy went into feature freeze before the new ati drivers were out. so that's why it is and wont be gutsy main repos [22:55] orionr; i also have two monitors and i remember having the same issue; be sure to run nvidia-settings as root, and manually increase the panning and position to the correct resolution, save the settings to xorg.conf, restart x, and relaunch nvidia-settings as root and it should show up with the correct option [22:56] be in* [22:56] Hi, can anyone help me disable the splash screen in 7.10? I've edited /boot/grub/menu.lst to add "nosplash" to defoptions but no joy [22:56] hi everybody [22:56] orionr, or manually change it in the xorg.conf, but that is tricky [22:56] thhp: remove "splash" [22:56] DShepherd: basically, what you're saying is that isn't not officially supportted by ubuntu and might cause compatibility problems?? [22:56] i dont suppoze anybody haz had problems with the gnome-screensaver; using tvtime in fullscreen on a 1680x1050 dvi connection using a nvidia 6800 gs using the nvidia-glx package on gutsy and watching .avi files using vlc in fullscreen. screen saver works but when it comes to shut the monitor off it blinks like its going to shut the monitor off but the screen saver comes on instead of the monitor going blank. i sure aint i am the only person that this is ha [22:56] ppening too. that would be a shame... [22:56] maybeway36: thanks, where from? [22:56] help on realtek hd audio [22:57] ineed help can i ask my question?? [22:57] batis, what is the question? [22:57] where it says #quiet splash [22:57] and also after the kernels [22:57] oxeimon, well.... ammm.. I am agree with the first part of your statement. As for the compatibility part maybe, maybe not..

[22:58] find the "quiet slash" chabe to just "quiet" [22:58] maybeway36: I want the changes to persist across kernel updates [22:59] hold on [22:59] how do i format a usb drive? ive tried: fdisk /dev/sda1 [22:59] ## additional options to use with the default boot option, but not with the [22:59] ## alternatives [22:59] ## e.g. defoptions=vga=791 resume=/dev/hda5 [22:59] # defoptions=quiet splash [22:59] PSheperd, I set allowed universal repos. but it still cannot find the package. :\ [22:59] robdeman, maybe you have to mount the drive in your script too. I am not sure though why that happends [22:59] find that, get rid of splash [22:59] don't uncomment it tohugh [23:00] WILL ANYONE ANSWER (HELP ON SOUND) [23:00] Hum.

[23:00] xatzis, no question: no answer [23:00] xatzis: calm down [23:00] !caps xatzis [23:00] Sorry, I don't know anything about caps xatzis - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [23:00] can anybody help with gnome-screensaver on ubuntu gutsy; your screen saver kicks in but when its time to shut your monitor off it just shows the screen saver again? im using a nvidia 6800 gs using the package nvidia-glx and have compiz fusion enabled. === stefg_ is now known as stefg [23:01] where does ubuntu put usb drives when you put them in? /media or /dev/sda1 or soemthing? [23:01] not sure [23:01] media/disk i think [23:03] where can I look to find more info as to why it errored during an apt-get install [23:03] my questin is: how do i get realtek hd audio to work [23:03] masteroc, to format a usb drive to fat32.. this command should help -- sudo mkfs.vfat -F 32 -n /dev/ [23:03] masteroc: it should automatically put them in /media/*something or other* but /dev/sd** should be the actual link to the device. depending on the the filesystem is and how you mount it; in can work almost the same as being automatically mounted upon boot. [23:03] PSheperd, I set allowed universal repos. but it still cannot find the package. :\ [23:03] Strangework, that's strange.. [23:04] I tried everything in every forum and i still have no sound [23:04] DSheperd, hence my name :P. Well, I will get back to that later. I will continue on to the next issue, my wireless network connection is in the restricted drivers section [23:04] Strangework, go to System -- Administration -- Software Sources and check to see if universe is checked [23:05] DSheperd, It is checked [23:05] Hello! what can I do about this: http://pastebin.ca/774003 (I have tried locate mysql.so and found the location then symlinked it but the others I cannot locate) [23:06] Strangework, and you can install it?? beats me ... [23:07] I want to install FOP to generate pdf documents from xml documents apt-get install fop dosen't give anything so i downloaded fop-0.94-bin-jdk1.4.tar.gz but i don't know how to configure it ?? [23:07] DSheperd: ehh.. so what now? :P [23:07] No one even bothers to tell me cant do nothing [23:07] did anybode use it before? [23:08] Strangework, not sure... can someone help Strangework ? I need to leave. [23:08] batis: tar xvzf fop-0.94-bin...; cd fop...; ./configure; make; sudo make install? [23:08] Strangework, just make your issue known. [23:08] Oh, wait [23:08] lata guys [23:08] I just installed gutsy. I cannot get compiz to work, it says "Composite" extension is not installed [23:08] It's already binary :P [23:08] DSheperd: okay, thanks for your effort DSheperd :) [23:08] Never mind then [23:08] Just extract & rtf(riendly)m [23:09] why isn't apt as versatile as gentoo's portage ? [23:09] has anyone else experienced problems with compiz? [23:10] Strangework: generally its a good idea to run 'sudo lshw -html > hardwarelist.html' . This gives you a list of all your installed hardware. then you can go through the ubuntu wiki and hunt down the howtos on your specific hardware [23:10] I am running Ubuntu off of the CD directly. My current screen res. is 1024x768, it is supposed to be 1280x800. Does anyone have a solution? [23:10] stefg: Oooh, thanks! I will give that a shot [23:11] when you install a program from a fold and then do ./configure or ./make, ./install. the program stays in that folder right? it does not go all over your root directory. and to uninstall that program you can simply delete the folder right? [23:11] FoSsiL: eh, the point of 'make install' is, usually, to install it somewhere. [23:12] so i tried the command sudo mkfs.vfat -F 32 -n /dev/ [23:12] and i get mkfs.vfat: Will not try to make filesystem on full-disk device '/dev/sda' (use -I if wanted) [23:12] is it sda1? [23:12] FoSsiL: you can ./configure --prefix=/home/$USER/localdir then make and make install though [23:12] FoSsiL: which is in most cases in /usr/local, so it shouldn't be a horrible mess, but it's better to check the documentation and options to configure carefully first. [23:12] stefg: No hardware list is being produced :\. What should I do? [23:13] got it, had to use sda1 and unmount it first [23:13] anyone have problems with using snort-mysql and updating the rules with oinkmaster; Once I update with oinkmaster, snort no longer alerts events [23:13] Hola, estoy aqui.. [23:14] when install program like that, you can simply just delete the folder and its uninstall right? or you have to do commandline uninstall? [23:14] Hola, como estas? [23:14] Strangework: there should be a file hardwarelist.html in the current working dir that you can open with firefox [23:14] BIen [23:14] xD [23:14] is the open source flash plugin any good?

[23:27] can anyone help me figure out what is causing an error when i try to install interchange? [23:27] Strangework: 'restricted' only means that the driver isn't open sourced by the vendor.

[23:37] hebrew_student: usually you need to uncompress the file it comes as a tar.gz or whatever then you change directory to the folder you uncompressed then ./configure or whatnot [23:37] SMILE! =D [23:37] Strangework: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCardsIntel === skun is now known as pseudo [23:37] hebrew_student: there should be an install or readme file in the folder with instructions === pseudo is now known as SKUN [23:37] FoSsiL: It appears, if you use synaptic, you can mark the checkbox for 'mark for complete removal' [23:38] FoSsiL: and that should get rid of all the config files [23:38] hello everybuddy again [23:38] Hi, I'm trying this: %clerg ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL in visudo.. but it says syntax error [23:38] FoSsiL: Or, if you use the command line, you add a -purge option and that will remove the config files I believe [23:38] I've googled the syntax, and a *lot* of people are using this line [23:38] I'm using 6.10 [23:38] 1.0.tgz the file is like this i did tar -xvzf [23:38] :) [23:38] FoSsiL: HankDogDaddy: this wont get rid of any config files in a user's home directory though. === turbocyprus is now known as SoteriouLoucas [23:39] how do i list unmounted hdds and their size [23:39] 1.0.tgz the file is like this i did tar -xvzf [23:39] evening === SKUN is now known as skun [23:39] hebrew_student: did you `cd` into the directory then?

It would make sense for that user to want to remove the program(and the files) and start over, but this isn't possible?? [23:41] Strangework: right... but you might consider to use ubuntu 7.04 feisty to get out of the way of problems [23:41] is it safe to update my system from 7.04 to 7.10?

[23:42] pike_: right; I am rebooted into a working Gutsy right now. yay [23:42] stefg: So that's all my problems patched up. Thanks Stefg! :D [23:42] cabldevil: better command for viewing your harddiscs: df -h [23:42] Strangework: good. so do a backup, install then. That's a Centrino notebook, right? [23:42] krisbo9000: You're in spoon feeding mode now. Try it, google and read. If you still haven't figured it out. Give up. If you've got a clue and are stuck at a detail, then come ask me [23:42] but its unmounted win dard drive [23:42] oh damn.. 19000 files in one dir here.. Taking ages to delete [23:42] df only lists mounted [23:42] ive been reading everything [23:42] i'm having problems conncecting to a windows pc (using gutsy) in my lan with samba that i didn't have in feisty. is there anything i can do? [23:43] fdisk is not listing sdb [23:43] anybody with experience using WINE? [23:43] krisbo9000: Obviously not [23:43] krisbo9000: That 's complete utter rubbish, and you are lazy [23:43] grub has wierd different versions of labelling partitions - right? [23:43] grub starts counting at zero [23:43] krisbo9000: Is that your conclusion after reading "everything" about grub ? [23:43] cabldevil: in my case it is listing sd* [23:44] i have been reading a fair bit clergyman [23:44] clergyman: http://bash.org/?3936 [23:44] comicinker: thanks hmm maybe its my sata card [23:44] df -h [23:44] Terrasqu1: Good one :) [23:44] doh sry [23:44] cabldevil: is it internal? [23:44] !coc | clergyman [23:44] clergyman: The Ubuntu Code of Conduct to which we ask all Ubuntu users to adhere can be found at http://www.ubuntu.com/community/conduct/ [23:45] clergyman: I am often reminded of that one when reading this channel. [23:45] comicinker: yes internal sata [23:45] does grub skip numbers in its counting from zero? Because my partitions look like this: sda1, sda5, sda6 [23:45] Pici: Tell me straight what I'm doing wrong instead [23:45] cabldevil: why do you think it shlud be listet as sdb? [23:45] krisbo9000: extended partition. [23:45] is there a package to install some widgets in ubuntu? [23:45] comicinker: shows sda but no other disks df -h shows all mounted volumes [23:45] !ogg [23:45] For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats [23:46] comicinker: I dont just taking a stab when I used fdisk [23:46] Terrasqu1, what do you mean? [23:46] let me get my head in the puter brb [23:46] Pici, that encyclopedia file is a bin...do you know how i can make it work? sorry to keep bugging you [23:46] what is recommended for desktop recording? instanbul, wink, or gtk-recordmydesktop? [23:46] krisbo9000: sda5 and 6 is an extended partition [23:46] clergyman: Telling users that they are lazy isnt the right way of going about doing things. [23:46] Ubuntupwns: hold on... again :) [23:46] Pici: He is tho [23:46] what would grub read that as though [23:46] cabldevil: yes, check power, data and temperature [23:46] ok [23:47] !screencast | eric__ [23:47] eric__: Some programs to capture your screen are Istanbul, Wink, Gvidcap, Xvidcap, vnc2swf, demorecorder. Also see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ScreenCasts. [23:47] anyone know of any applications I can install that would have the same abilities as phpmyadmin? [23:47] krisbo9000: If grub starts at zero, and the /dev structure doesn't, and hda is the first disk and hda5 is the fifth partition, have a guess :) [23:47] clergyman: Then take a break, its not polite to tell people that. [23:47] comicinker: thanks for the help [23:48] Ubuntupwns: Thats odd. I'd just try downloading the subdirectory's files one at a time. [23:48] the ubuntu installer installs the bootloader to (hd0) by default - do i need to maintain the () if I change it to something else [23:48] Ubuntupwns: There aren't that many there. [23:48] clergyman - i suppose it would be hda4 [23:48] comicinker: changing all 2 servers and 2 laptops and 1 puter over from MS so trying to get lvm working for a 2 tera partition [23:48] krisbo9000: ..... [23:48] Pici yeah they're just showing up as bin files? [23:49] when downloaded [23:49] but in my case is that sd0,4 - or hd0,4 or sd4? or ... [23:49] Ubuntupwns: you could just do: bzr branch http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~dennis/ubuntu-bots/main [23:49] Pici: He is lazy, might not be polite, but I don't reckon it is inpolite either. It's evident that he's flat out lying and making people waste their time, which in my opinion is more rude than anything [23:49] bzr branch? [23:50] http://www.pastebin.ca/774094 here its what i get when i type make [23:50] comicinker: be nice if the ide cable on the older drive was plugged in to the mobo no? hahah what a dic$ i am [23:50] krisbo9000: *first* hit: http://www.google.com/search?client=opera&rls=en&q=grub+partitions+disks+sda4&sourceid=opera&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8 [23:50] First post, first hit will tell you exactly what you need to know [23:50] Ubuntupwns: apt-get install bzr then do that command [23:50] If I run nautilus ssh://ourserver.org/home/ it pops up a username and pass dialog with 3 options: forget password, remember for session, remember forever. For a public computer, is there some way to disable the last two options? [23:50] And I bet you my left arm that it'd been quicker for you to google and read that, than log on to IRC, wait and look incompetent [23:50] pici thanks [23:51] FYI i have done dozens of searches like this clergyman - === mimilus is now known as mimilus__ [23:51] hebrew_student: Did you write this code? [23:51] krisbo9000: Wrong ones obviously... Note root (hd0,5) .. next line.. root=/dev/hda6 [23:51] See the pattern? === Aresilek is now known as Aresilek|Videos [23:51] #sudo [23:51] no thats the code i get when i try to install [23:52] One more, just for practice: root (hd0,6) = root=/dev/hda7 [23:52] !sudo [23:52] sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information. [23:52] why are my partitions listed as sd and not hd though and do i replace hd for the grub installation? [23:53] I've had an odd thing happen recently. I've been trying various Linux distros and nothing went wrong until I installed Debian with LVM encryption. Since then no Live CDs install properly, including Ubuntu. which worked fine beforehand. Now it still boots ok but then when I try to install in gets as far as starting and then says it can't write ext3 to hda1 and fails. Does anyone know a quick... [23:53] ...way to get around this? Normal install CDs like Debian and suse are not affected and work fine. [23:53] krisbo9000: hd is IDE disks, sd is sata, usb and scsi [23:53] krisbo9000, grub has a different way of labeling devices [23:53] krisbo9000: http://www.google.com/search?client=opera&rls=en&q=sda+hda+difference&sourceid=opera&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8 First hit, will tell you [23:53] "IDE drives are designated "hdb", "hdc" etc ..." "SCSI or SATA or USB drives will be designated "sda", "sdb", "sdc" and so on." [23:53] does grub designate them the same way [23:54] Are you joking? [23:54] well i dont know why the ubuntu installer installs grub to hd0 by default when i dont have any hd disks [23:54] do you guys use this program called "HTOP" i have an issue with saving my settings, it always go back to its default. how do you fix it? [23:54] is anyone familiar with n64 emulators? I have mupen64 but it seems to run slower than project64 on an equivalent windows pc [23:56] krisbo9000: So if you don't have any /dev/hda* devices at all.. and grub suggests (hd0), what's your guess? [23:56] krisbo9000, ubuntu uses libata so IDE drives appear as SCSI (/dev/sdx)... grub labeling has nothing to do with this [23:56] eido: isn't that just down to the one program being written better than the other? I mean isn't it just an individual thing? [23:56] hello, anyone already configured an Atheros AR5006EG Wifi in Gutsy? [23:56] FoSsiL: htop appears to save my settings in ~/.htoprc [23:57] does anyone on here run tor? === EJChris is now known as EjC [23:57] clypee: I was just wondering if anyone knew of an emulator that worked well under linux === EjC is now known as EjCh [23:57] FoSsiL: my first guess is that you ran the program with sudo first time, and thus your user's config file was written as root. So normal user account can neither read nor edit it. Just a guess tho [23:58] veganarchist: I did use it with Debian along with privoxy [23:58] it appears that i dont have that folder in my home directory. ill see if i can manually at it [23:58] FoSsiL: its a file not a folder. [23:58] astro76 - so i keep it as hd - and install grub to i.e hd0,5 [23:58] nope i never ran the program as root [23:58] clypee: i'm having a difficult time understanding their install instructions, wanna walk me through> [23:58] 'folders'.. they're directories :) [23:58] oic [23:58] https://wiki.torproject.org/noreply/TheOnionRouter/TorOnDebian [23:59] why won't limewire or frostwire connect? [23:59] I'll have alook again just give me aminute [23:59] <_mastro_> hi. i've ubuntu feisty. and i've a problem with compiz fusion, can you address me to the compiz fusion support channel? [23:59] does /dev/sda6 = hd0,5? [23:59] amazing! [23:59] hi can anyone give me advice on playback of divs on totem
