desertc_ebirtaid: I like what pelo said, put it both places02:19
_ebirtaidthat would work also02:19
Pelodesertc, actualy I mean just put grub on the external,  ie the same hdd you have ubuntu on , that way when you remove the hdd the boot process is not affected02:19
_ebirtaidpelo: yes :D02:20
IMORBmneptok: it says jackd not found02:20

* Pelo has two hdd one with windows and one with ubuntu and he can remove either, the other way , he can't remove any 02:20
sfearsthat's not the first time my computer has shut down in the middle of upgrades.  I think linux should have some kind of resume, windows works pretty well02:20
gogetadesertc agreeed removing a hd and having grub on a non removable = truble02:20

gogetacappicard its ctrl alt backspace kills x02:21
cappicardgogeta: I know02:21
Pelodesertc, not realy,  grub is in two parts,  phase one on the boot sector of the bios boot hdd, phase 2 on which ever partiton ubuntu is located,   if  phase one can'T find phase two you are screwed which is why it is better to have both on the same hdd02:21
cappicardX is still running,but KDE is dead.02:21

Pelodesertc, I guess you can have an internal hdd with it's own phase one , pointing to phase two on that same internal hdd, with a menu.lst file on that hdd that has an entry poiting to a kernel on the external hdd and vice versa on the external hdd,  if you like things complicated02:26

PeloGodscape, menu > sytem> prefs > removable media02:28
kloshm is there a xchat totem now playing plugin ??? :)02:28
desertcPelo: The added complexity is to accommodate whether the external drive is booting or not, and when it is removed, the computer isn't disabled.  It's not any more complex than setting up a bootable USB stick.02:28
gogetacappicard i would check your keybord maybe the alt key is stuck down02:28
gogetactrl backspace shouldent kill it02:28
gogetaalt needs to be pressed02:29
scguy318the combination is Ctrl-Alt-Backspace, yes02:29
Pelodesertc, what you need to consider is , what do you ahve on the internal hdd ? jsut windows ? then forget about putting grub on that , it won'T need it , just put grub on the external and boot from the external when you have to02:29

BADKITTYThe restricted drivers for your video card03:18
NightDragonyeah ususally any error with "HAL" in it is realyl bad03:18
NightDragondont know where to get them03:19
tatterdemalianHAL is the interface to the hardware... if that goes down, odds are you can't use critical parts of your machine03:19
phaedrapgan, Yes...  you'll need to also set the connection properties to dhcp too.  If you do that you can restart the net with 'sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart'03:19
BADKITTYNightDragon: What kind of card do you have? ATI?03:19

BADKITTYtatterdemalian: hmm strange.. there has always been good nvidia support ... wonder if it is just the go series that wasn't included03:22
phaedrapgan, This script is the network startup and yes it does, but when you change these settings you need to restart the net for the settings to take hold.  You don't need to reboot ala-windows.03:22
pganphaedra: now that roaming is disabled and dhcp selected, I'll restart and see if the connection comes up automatically.  Right?03:22
BADKITTYNightDragon: Do a google search for something like ubuntu ATI restricted driver03:23
phaedrapgan, No...  just use the networking script...03:23
tatterdemalianBADKITTY: Oh, the restricted driver works fine, I just had to tell Ubuntu to install and use it first... it doesn't, out of the box, due to the licensing issues03:23
phaedrapgan, Or you can reboot to test...03:23

desertcjmolek28: did you check the integrity?03:30
phaedracarl_, Okay...  that might pose a problem.  Your best bet is to check to see if the usb modem is supported or just boot the livecd to see if it is recognized.03:30

sarswho can  give me the url for my need03:43
pganphaedra: Yes, it's a xircom.  /etc/network/interfaces includes the lines "iface eth0 inet dhcp" and "auto eth0"03:43

dfcarneyand both the SATA drives are on the same controller?  hmmm...03:43

VovkDo I have to run sudo in front of crontab -e? what day of the week does it start on? do I have to do anything besides edit the file?03:44
dfcarneyBADKITTY: type something like "dmesg | grep sd" and browse the output to see if the second drive shows up in the messages03:44
BADKITTYnightdragon - yeah I doubt you have the correct drivers ..mine is outputting atleast 2000 - 350003:44
pganphaedra: I have a Thinkpad A21m which does not have a network card, and I can't find a PCMCIA one that works with Linux.  But that's another issue.03:44
dfcarneyBADKITTY: you should see entries for sda, sdb, etc... for each disk (if they're detected)03:44
tatterdemalianHow many letters are allowed in freenode quit messages?03:45
scguy318pgan: if that PCMCIA card doesn't have a native Linux driver try ndiswrapper03:45
BADKITTYdfcarney: I think I see it as sdb, its the only one with 500 gigs ...03:45

ojwhat plugin do i need in order to watch full screen videos on spikedhumor.com ?04:04
dfcarneyBADKITTY: the trick with setting it up in /etc/fstab is that you have to set the mount permissions properly so that you can actually read/write to it04:04

dfcarneymcgrew: in short, yes...but it's hard to debug hardware issues remotely.  basically, look through dmesg and try to figure out the disk (sda, sdb, etc...)  Then, look up the partition you wish to mount in the /proc/partitions file.  After that, you'll want to mount it with "mount".  To get it to mount automatically, you'll want to google for that info.04:23

nickrudVovk: I usually use   touch /home/rich/testfile  for testing my cron stuff, isolates script errors as such04:33
Crozarthe world want to use such stuff , i dont blame the builders but i blame UbuntU and linux the big boys who doesnt make such app or tunnel for just accepting the build ones into the right prespectives , example pidgin plugin = easy put by put and install... ect..04:34

ubotucentral (and sudo -i will give you a root shell): sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.04:38

centralok thanks04:39
druluxWell thanks.04:39
pganCrozar: Ubuntu only has a small workforce.  And, yes it is talking to the developers of gnome apps for example.  But it's better if you yourself talk to them on mailing lists and submit bug reports04:39
Vovkcentral: you will not need to actually log in as the root user, instead use the command sudo in front of textual things that you need root permissions for and gksudo in front of GUI commands you need root permissions for04:39
tatterdemalianIf Linux ever replaced Windows, it would become just as "evil," anyhow... mostly because Microsoft isn't evil, just incompetant, as all large organizations must become04:39

nickrudI don't think windows is evil or corrupt or incompetent, they just have this incredibly diverse user base they have to satisfy, with ancient/cutting edge hardware. I hate how they hide the metal from me, though04:41

desertc!patience > cerealkiller04:44
thenewguy1216anyone out there who could help me change the boot order in the boot loader?04:44
Crozardjmeltdown_, watch the youtube guide http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ad17kma8rNM04:44
desertcthenewguy1216: google grub settings04:44
thenewguy1216thx04:44
pganthenewguy1216, what boot loader are you using?04:44
sethkdjmeltdown_, sometimes you need to override the user name and password with one that exists on the windows side.  I think enabling guest on the windows side is another alternative.04:44
nickrudthenewguy1216: you'd do it by renumbering in /etc/rc2.d, but you really shouldn't, many of them start in parallel04:44
djmeltdown_crozar - will do, is there a guide to compiz-fusion too, i can get to the settings, but i dont know the keyboard shortcuts to make anything function04:44
TwoDnickrud: hehe, true, but functioning =/= useful ;)04:44
tatterdemaliannickrud: I could... all it really needs is DOS and HIMEM6404:44
Jupp2djmeltdown_, did you turn the samba service on?04:44
Crozarcerealkiller, widgets you can use screenlets and have it attached with compiz manager or just get gDesklets04:45
sethkthenewguy1216, you just edit the file and move the lines04:45
=== christian is now known as _Christian
cerealkillerthanks04:45
nickrudTwoD: who needs more than mutt, elm, elinks, and g++ ?:)04:45
TwoDhaha04:45
sethkthenewguy1216, assuming you know which file and which lines, of course  :)04:45
bluefox83drwxr-xr-x  2 bluefox bluefox   4096 2007-07-30 14:17 tmp  <---what does the number 4096 represent?04:45
thenewguy1216grub, as far as I know04:45
sethkbluefox83, size of the file04:45
Crozardjmeltdown_, you just got ubuntu fresh install out of the box? wat is it gnome or kde?04:45
mcgrewdfcarney: cat  /proc/partitions gave me a list. it seems the external is both sdb and sdb104:45
tatterdemalianHeck, I used to code DLLs using EDLIN04:46
nickrudtatterdemalian: but what would you run? (I'm getting way off topic, so I'll leave the last word)04:46
thenewguy1216yah, I'm poking around in menu.lst04:46
bluefox83sethk, there's no way, i have dozens of none-related files that all say 409604:46
thenewguy1216hopefully this works out04:46
sethkbluefox83, directories always show as 409604:46
mcgrewso what command do I need to feed it to make it mount?04:46
cerealkilleri cant uninstall wine04:46
djmeltdown_crozar - i upgraded, but i did a complete install... gnome i believe04:46
* TwoD ponders if he should go to bed... 5:45am here and I finally got my svn-server up!04:46
djmeltdown_way i can check?04:46
sethkbluefox83, in unix, a directory is really another type of file, and it has a fixed initial size of 409604:46
tatterdemalianEDLIN had an integrated disassembler, not many people know that04:46
desertctatterdemalian: EDLIN... lol  -- what - couldn't handle DEBUG ?04:46
Crozardjmeltdown_, last question to my basis , when you  upgraded from feisty did you had compiz installed at feisty before upgradeing?04:47
djmeltdown_nope04:47
bluefox83sethk, any reason why whenever i move a file over to my nfs server, it gets the user group number of 1000?04:47
bluefox83and why my nfs mount is listen as 1000?04:47
bluefox83it was 100104:47
Crozardjmeltdown_, good , you have saved 20 minutes of my time :D04:47
djmeltdown_glad i could help04:47
Crozardjmeltdown_, you need !ccsm04:47
xidox.cl04:47
Crozar!ccsm04:47
ubotuTo enable advanced customization of desktop effects in Ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy), install 'compizconfig-settings-manager'. A new option will appear in your appearance properties - See also !compiz - Help in #compiz-fusion04:47
djmeltdown_i already sudo apt-got ccsm04:47
djmeltdown_its installed04:48
tatterdemaliandesertc: I knew people who could... I never got that far though, because MASM came out04:48
djmeltdown_!ccsm04:48
Crozardjmeltdown_, then you can press system > prefrences > advanced compiz setin04:48
desertctatterdemalian: I barely touched either one, except to run patches.04:48
Crozari mean advanced desktop effect settings djmeltdown_04:48
ztomicwoo-hoo! Feisty works so much betta on older machines.04:48
flypp3rIs there a reason that my Google Browser Sync for Firefox makes the browser go extremely slow?  I'm on amd64 7.1004:48
martmananyone running JeOS in a vmware? i cant seem to get my fresh install to finish booting04:48
martmannot sure what could be wrong04:49
djmeltdown_crozar - ok, i went in a tooled with it today, and set up the cube settings, but how do use it??  when i press alt+tab, i still get a scroll with my open windows instead of a cube04:49
bluefox83sethk, when i rsync a file over to my fileserver, or just plain move it on nfs, the files get the group owner 100or 100004:49
tatterdemalianMASM was awesome... I wrote an entire 3d engine in it, that interfaced with DirectX 904:49
Crozarztomic, what do you mean >? gutsy is very good aswell , its maybe you have the known issues and its already solved like resoloution , graphics , and network failure04:49
Crozaroh04:49
Crozartry Ctrl + ALT + right arrow04:49
GeekChick|How do you configure the grub boot loader graphically? Everytime I update ubuntu in anyway it just steals the top position in the boot order and I want Windows XP to always be first. In fact, this time it deleted Windows XP so it could be at the top. I'd like to prevent this from ever occurring again.04:49
djmeltdown_crozar - ctrl+alt+right arrow shifts me to the next desktop04:50
ztomicCrozar:  Main problem is that Daphne wont run on fresh install.04:50
nickrudGeekChick|: move the windows stanza above the line that has BEGIN AUTOMAGIC KERNEL CONFIG (or some such)04:50
brokenomg04:50
nickrudGeekChick|: it'll stay at the top permanently04:50
MidtronicGeekChick|: check /boot/grub/menu.lst04:50
brokenubuntu doesn't see that i have 1400x90004:50
Crozardjmeltdown_, you can configure your bindings in many ways by going in the cube or forexample any plugin and clickong on the action tab you will see bindings , click on the arrow04:51
GeekChick|nickrud, it has not staid at the top for the last 3 times and i moved the windows stanza to the top last itme04:51
nickrudGeekChick|: above that line, and it'll stay untouched.04:51
tatterdemalianI should put "girl" in my name somewhere... people would be falling all over themselves to help me then04:51
djmeltdown_crozar , so in short i can set my own shortcut keys04:51
kolinabcan I ask someone a question about installing a program from a tarball?04:51
Midtronictatterdemalian: I know, right?04:51
Crozarztomic, im not a fan of Daphne what good does it do :p teach me so i can be a part of your world brother04:51
ztomicyeah i know it's silly but ...04:51
rj__does any one know the beryl project?04:51
MidtronicI try to be gender neutral and only answer things I know how to do :-P04:51
Crozaryes djmeltdown_ example how many windows y ou ahve running now?04:51
GeekChick|tatterdemalian, lol04:52
Crozardjmeltdown_, clikc the windows icon the one that is in your keyboard between Ctrl and ALT , click on that icon hold it and click TAB]04:52
GeekChick|tatterdemalian, you're more likely to get A/S/L Cam/Pic04:52
nickrudtatterdemalian: ah, I take good care of poor kids, too :)04:52
tatterdemalianMidtronic: Me too, that's why I'm sitting here reminiscing about assemblers instead of helping04:52
james296does anyone know if its possible to install the 32 bit version of Ubuntu over the 64 bit version without having to reformat the HD?04:52
Midtronichaha04:52
Midtronictatterdemalian: well, maybe you can help this... if I update /etc/hosts.allow or hosts.deny, can I push those changes to my kernel without rebooting?04:53
thenewguy1216how do I access /boot/grub/menu.lst with the necessary permissions to save the file?04:53
nickrudjames296: yes, just tell the installer to wipe that partition04:53
Crozardesktop cube > action tab > general click on the arrow , you will see the bindings which you want to reconfigure djmeltdown_04:53
Midtronicsince I updated to gutsy I can't ssh into this box via wan04:53
nickrudthenewguy1216: gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst04:53
tatterdemalianMidtronic: Nope, sorry... I may be god of machine code, but I'm still a Linux n00b04:54
james296Im sorry, I meant the entire HD including Ubuntu itself..04:54
Crozarcan any1 help me make touch screen work? i installed ezpoint and nothing worked yet04:54
thenewguy1216nickrud: how do I start that up04:54
james296I dont wanna lose the way I have all the settings set at and I cant use Opera since Im running the 64 bit version :-(04:54
rj__how do i get a pic behind the cube while transparent beryl04:54
Midtronictatterdemalian: wish I'd had you when I was taking a systems class ;-)04:54
nickrudthenewguy1216: apps->accessories->terminal, type it there. The terminal is where you do any system level work.04:55
thenewguy1216thanks04:55
Midtronicjames296: there's a fix/hack/thing to get such things as java and flash working on 64-bit machines04:55
=== shinygiftson_ is now known as shinygiftson
Midtronicbut it's mozilla-based, not opera04:55
NutubuntuI'm running 32bit Feisty on my A64 X2 desktop box and figuring to upgrade to Gutsy. What should I be concerned about? And what should I expect to need to reconfigure after the upgrade? Java? Sound stuff? Nvidia stuff? How has it gone for people?04:56
GeekChick|nickrud, thank you. that worked (until next time)04:56
=== Tamblewid is now known as Tamblwid
james296but I want Opera...lol, without having to lose everything on my Ubuntu partition, is this possible or not?04:56
MidtronicNutubuntu: I dist-upgraded on the same proc., but I'm 64-bit linux04:56
MidtronicI had no issues04:56
nickrudGeekChick|: try sudo update-grub, and reboot. That's the command that the kernel upgrade uses to rebuild grub. See if it survives04:56
tatterdemalianMidtronic: No you don't... it's like having the King of Slide Rules in your class: fun the first time you see him work his magic, but by the end of the day you're about to make him wish his slipstick really was that slippery04:56
bluefox83i seem to be having trouble mv'ing files from one directory to another in terminal, isn't it simply mv foo/ bar/04:56
djmeltdown_ok - i figured out how to rotate the screen, but it seems like my cube is a square, its only 2D, has front and back, no top and bottom04:57
Crozarmany people keep saying i dont want to learn about linux i want the programs insatlled like in windows , ( well here is an answer . before compiz , when it was manual , the geeks had them first and was ok , then made a video , the noobs was i want that , then said comon make it easy install wtf is this ,.. here goes life ) if the people dont learn linux then by days and times new stuff will come created by the community the fan lovers the ge04:57
Crozareks , and they will not put tutorials but speak by 2 - 4 sentences geek understanding and they will be the only ones to have them , the wants who undersatnd linux , but the noobs will suffer unless they buy support or learn themselves ... or wait for help on a cry prayer04:57

desertcNutubuntu: nice nick... I'm running 64b -- no worries04:57
ikondesertc: are you geek?04:57
james296whats everyones opinion on the Aerora theme engine?04:57
NutubuntuMidtronic,  desertc, thanks both. 64bit working well for you? I am guessing I ought to stay with 32bit since I'm running it now and don't want to do a full reinstall04:58
nickrudNutubuntu: I always update in place, make sure you have no third party repos enabled, and if you used automatix, all bets are off04:58
shinygiftsonhi all04:58
tatterdemalianYay, I spent 20 years learning how to write assembler programs with hex editors, and what is that skill good for today? Jack squit.04:58
desertc!hi04:58
ubotuHi! Welcome to #ubuntu!04:58
jturekhey, how do i get my virtual consoles working in Gutsy,  when i hit ALT-F1 or whatever, usually it drops me to a shell,  but now it just goes to a blank screen04:58
desertctatterdemalian: embedded processing is the new plastics04:58
nickrudjturek: ati chip?04:59
MidtronicNutubuntu: it works well for me.. I've only had a few issues.  It took me a while to get flash working.. the only thing that's really pissed me off has been that there's some texmaker bug so that it won't run on 64-bit systems... which really sucked when I had to do a research paper04:59
NutubuntuThanks nickrud - no automatix, but I do have some additional repos enabled ... I'll go turn those off first...04:59
MidtronicI wrote it inside a 32-bit ubuntu virtual machine04:59
jtureknickrud: intel04:59
shinygiftsonwhile i'm trying to upgrade my ubuntu to the latest one, i'm getting  E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)04:59
pganCrozar: While things are experimental, they are not always stable, easy to use and documented04:59
nickrudjturek: then I don't know, I have an ati and had problems when using fglrx04:59
jtureknickrud: 82915G04:59
NutubuntuMidtronic,  latex is a big deal for me right now ... in fact, back in Dapper, I think, I had to backport it to get pdftex working ...05:00
shinygiftsonwht should i do to debugg05:00
shinygiftson?05:00
jtureknickrud: i thought maybe it was my resolution or something,  so i did VGA=79205:00
jturekand it still doesn't work05:00
Midtronicyeah.  LaTeX works just fine.. it's just texmaker that doesn't05:00
tatterdemalianpgan: Too bad nothing in Linux ever moves past the "experimental" phase05:00
nickrudshinygiftson: could you put the complete run of apt-get -f install on a pastebin (if that doesn't fix it)05:00
MidtronicI should have written it in vim :P05:00
Crozari have a wacom touch screen while its not working out of th ebox :/ is it a conflict?05:00
bluefox83tatterdemalian, everything does05:00

* nickrud wonders about tex , experimental?05:01
vladuz976i need info on font.conf file, and what I can do with it. I can't find good resources. can anybody point me to information?05:01
EvanlecCrozar, try apt-get install wacom-tools05:01
BADKITTYafter I install virtualbox, is there any other packages I need to install for it to work?05:01
tatterdemalianbluefox83: Only if it has to, like your customers are threatening lawsuits. No customers, no lawsuits, no progress05:01
CrozarEvanlec, you have a touchscreen/05:01
tatterdemalianHell, even grep is still in beta05:01
EvanlecCrozar, no i just have a regular wacom tablet05:01
Midtronicvladuz976: read the manpage? (man 5 fonts-conf)05:02
nickrudvladuz976: http://fontconfig.org/fontconfig-user.html05:02
CrozarEvanlec, btw wacom is hp? or compaq?05:02
pgantatterdemalian: I agree a lot of things should be easier to use.  I make long lists of those and post them as bug reports, describe how things should work05:02
EvanlecCrozar, i dno, i thot wacom was wacom05:02
Crozaroh05:02
Crozarmy laptop is not wacom05:02
bluefox83tatterdemalian, they keep the projects open so they can continue to develop things and make them better, it's a lot more than can be said of anything done in windows05:02
Crozarits hp05:02
EvanlecCrozar, yea...but wacom made the touchscreen05:02
Midtronictatterdemalian: I dunno if experimental/beta are the right words.. how about feature-rich and under development?05:02
Midtroniceuphemisms :-)05:02
CrozarEvanlec, :D05:02
NutubuntuSo ... dist-upgrade would go like (1) make sure ubuntu-desktop's installed, (2) disable third party repositories, (3) run the upgrade tool, (4) smile and pour a cool refreshing beverage ... more or less ... ?05:02
EvanlecCrozar, cuz thats what they make ;)05:03
shinygiftsonnickrud: even i tried to fix broken packages using synoptic manager05:03
FireHazrdIs anyone else having issues with add/remove - 7.10?05:03
shinygiftsonbut i couldn't05:03
CrozarEvanlec, then i need wacom-tools05:03
tatterdemalianbluefox: Yeah, in Windows they finish one project before going to the next... sometimes05:03
shinygiftsonmono-xsp and mono-xsp2 r broken05:03
EvanlecCrozar, it might help, i never heard of touch-screen + ubuntu tho, it might be unsupported05:03
nickrudshinygiftson: then the pastebin would be helpful, the real problems will be mentioned before that error message you spoke of05:03
Crozar:(05:03
bluefox83or in the case of windows itself, they release it broken, and leave millions upon millions of filed bugs unfixed05:03
MidtronicI'd rather have a project that works where there's still stuff to do than a broken unfinished project.  Plus the nature of open source is sort of.. buggy05:03
bluefox83where-as in linux, the community goes out of it's way to fix bugs05:04
nickrudmmm, bugzilla, good05:04
EvanlecCrozar, esp if its really new, and a little exotic05:04
desertctatterdemalian: why do you say grep is in beta?05:04
brueniggrep in beta?05:04
CrozarEvanlec, many people like touchscreen for private purposes05:04
bluefox83grep is no-where near beta05:04
CrozarEvanlec, example , presentation05:04
nickrudok, this is a bit over the top, grep vs compiz05:04
tatterdemalianMidtronic: In that case, I'm an experienced youngish cuddly male who is good with his hand05:05
bluefox83grep is used in production servers, and has been for a long time now05:05
Midtronictatterdemalian: you should get a touchscreen... for private purposes.05:05
tatterdemalianInstead of a fat old geek with a sticky keyboard05:05
MidtronicI'm a moderately experienced young geek, I suppose.05:05
brueniggrep > compiz05:06

Frogzoodjmeltdown_: cos compiz isn't running05:06

tomdtarelerulz: you can do this with norton ghost. i don't know of a free software alternative but I'm sure there is one. just look on the net, youll need to use a livecd and put both hard drives in one machine, if you're on a laptop, thats a bit more complicated05:14

Midtronictarelerulz: on the upside, norton ghost is probably more user-friendly05:16
rocketse.g. if i use pidgin in kde i get sound05:16
domorscguy318: what happens when you put that command in" im a newbie05:16
rocketsbut not if i use kopete05:16
tomdtarelerulz. your problem is that of sending the drive image somewhere, you can use ethernet, serial, a usb hard drive05:16
Midtronicrockets: check what your sound output plugin is in gnome05:16
NutubuntuSo ... dist-upgrade would go like (1) make sure ubuntu-desktop's installed, (2) disable third party repositories -- including archive.canonical.com/ubuntu feisty-commercial? -- (3) run the upgrade tool, (4) smile and pour a cool refreshing beverage ... more or less ... ?05:16

osxdudeAnyone know where the sounds for Pidgin are located?05:20
tomdtarelerulz: i've also seen devices that allow you to plug laptop hd's into desktops.. you can probably just back it up to an external drive, or, maybe use ethernet or serial.. it depends on what software you use... actually, i think you can just do this with the dd command..05:20
djmeltdown_not sure how, but i think it had to do with the virutal vertical size or something05:20

kenkenshini just install 7.10 and it was working before it started when I installed wine05:30
nickrudEvanlec: I gave it up when they stopped releasing stable versions, around 2.6.2 or 3 or so05:30
Crozardjmeltdown_, my best is shiftswitcher , rain , expo , reflection cube , and do some random animation like vacuum for closeing stuff :D get kiba-dock to make it look like a next generation system05:30
Evanlecnickrud, ive heard ppl say that before....but um, im running 2.6.23.1 and its prety darn stable05:31
Evanlecnickrud, i wouldnt bother trying to install 2.6.24-rc2 tho05:31
BADKITTYcrozar: I like expo alot and the shrink to show displays .. super+E on mine05:31

BADKITTYCrozar: Oh ok, my cube turned into a hexagon and I have no idea why, I have it set to 4 desktops05:33
robert_for no reason05:33
nickrudEvanlec: just an example, it used to be that even point releases just got bug fixes, not major new features which broke stuff. But I can't complain, really, the kernels in debian/ubuntu are really polished, it's not the kernel guys fault that ati drivers suck05:33
Crozarcake4567, save it from the firefox menu of vista  , by clicking bookmarks manage then export , save it put it in a floppy then login ubuntu go to manage bookmarks import then import from floppy finish.05:33
Nutubunturobert_,  only on odd-numbered or even-numbered dates05:34
Evanlecnickrud, the kernels in debian/ubuntu are designed with "enable everything even if they dont need it" philosophy05:34
Shadowsok so i've been fighting with the blankscreen ever since 5.4 and until now useing the Vesa driver has worked fine but now Ubuntu is on my main machine. The Problem is that with vesa my comp boots to blank still05:34
djmeltdown_badkitty, crozar : hmmm, it seems like ALL my options are greyed out05:34
robert_Nutubuntu, no, it segfaults under gutsy64.05:34
nickrudEvanlec: shades of microsoft :)05:34
cake4567but i'm more worried about the pword05:34
CrozarBADKITTY, go to general options , DesktopSize , and Horizantal virtual size increase that to 2 or 405:34
Evanlecnickrud, exactly05:34
robert_and yes- I got the reference05:34
Crozarcake4567, your passwords >?05:35
Evanlecnickrud, i mean the buntu kernel is good, its hardware compatibility is definitely great, i just wanted to see if i could get a faster kernel with some more bleeding edge features ;)05:35
Crozarwrite the passwords down cake456705:35
Nutubunturobert_, all the time ... does it in Feisty 32 too, I think it's been doing this back into Dapper05:35
Shadowsso what I'm trying to say is HELP :(05:35
djmeltdown_well everyone, its my bedtime, i'll play more with compiz tomorrow at work, thanks for all your help!05:35
kolinabcake4567: to my knowledge you should be able to do the same with your entire profile folder. you should be able to transplant its contents into your ubuntu profile from vista. You know how to find your profile in vista?05:35
Evanlecnickrud, are u saying that the newer vanilla kernels dont have slab?05:36
Crozarfrom windows firefox click edit menu > prefrences > security > Show passwords05:36
nickrudEvanlec: I'm thinking about going whole hog paring it down to my hardware, or just swap back to the old memory allocator.05:36
Crozarcake4567, then you can see the usernames and passwords for which sites , write them down.05:36
BADKITTYCrozar: it is at 405:36
nickrudEvanlec: they switch to slub, http://lwn.net/Articles/229984/ for a quick description05:36
CrozarBADKITTY, and the last 2 are 1's?05:36
Evanlecnickrud, thx, what do u mean swap back to the old memory allocator?05:36
kolinabshouldn't he be able to transplant the profile folder into ubuntu? that's what I do with thinderbird and it keeps my extensions and everything05:37
cake4567ya I just tried copying it over05:37
tomdcake4567, What directory did you copy it to?05:37
Crozarthen  from the desktop workspaces of your ubuntu change that , that requires attention because they conflict with compiz , you must appropirate them both for such numbers to get you wants , BADKITTY05:37
BADKITTYCrozar: Ok sweet I had both at 2 and that fixed it.. although is there a setting to make both monitors move as one large cube as there was with beryl?05:37
cake4567slightly different  folder setup05:37
cake4567home/.mozilla05:37
nickrudEvanlec: the old code is there, I can switch back in kconfig really easily. But I need a day when I don't really need the machine :(05:37
tomdput it on ~/.mozilla/firefox05:37
CrozarBADKITTY, large cube?05:37
brettmrYou know, i don't know what to do, i've been using Ubuntu for like 2 years now on my laptop. I just got this new screen and can't get extended desktop to work.  I am considering downgrading back to feisty, but i like much of the new packages of Gutsy, not to mention that it took me like a month to set up dual head mode in feisty, and even then it wasn't True extended desktops. So i am considering firing up windows again, but i don'05:38
CrozarBADKITTY, you mean 1 paper double side?05:38
cake4567ya thats what I did05:38
tomdcake4587, try creating a profile then dumping all the files from the profile into the new profile05:38
Crozarbrettmr, you dont need to downgrade05:38
desertcbrettmr: Have you looked on the forums?05:38
Evanlecnickrud, so ur gonna make a super-lean kernel with only the hardware support you need, but use SLAB instead of SLUB ?05:38
brettmryeah05:38
BADKITTYCrozar: cube with two monitors. cube goes accross both monitors instead of cubes in each individual monitor05:38
brettmri have played around with xrandr but no luck05:38
desertcbrettmr; Have you posted on the forums?05:38
tomdcake4567, that way ffox will definitely know about the profile05:39
desertcbrettmr: You aren't the first person with a monitor and a laptop05:39
brettmri think my monitor is actually too big to work well05:39
kolinabcake4567, the way I do it is, save the entire profile folder from vista. Then DELETE the information in the new ubuntu profile folder, but keep the ubuntu profile name and everything alone, then just transplant the contents from your vista profile into your ubuntu one. does that make sense?05:39
CyberAgeVoodoohi, 2 quick questions. anyone know where the screensavers are kept in linux (directory) also... can windows screensavers be converted for linux05:39
desertcbrettmr: that is an extremely common monitor05:39

kenkenshin  hi  my windows buttons have diapered the minimize and maximize buttons are not on my windows to get out of them i am using the 7.10 ubuntu desktop and my terminal is not working ether it just i a white box what can i do about this what will fix it i just install 7.10 and it was working before. it started when I installed wine a few days ago05:39
nickrudEvanlec: one or the other. I have the weekend where I won't need the laptop for work, I'm probably gonna do the replacement (and look over the config, haven't in a long time) and then decide about doing a custom one.05:39
cake4567kolinab...just tried it...no go05:39
Crozarbrettmr, it runs great its just a known issue in gutsy and must do couple of things for some of the screens out theyr , but overrall people run great with gutsy only the unlucky ones have such problems , read more about xorg.conf files and fix for screen TV or crt or DFS laptop screen have an options for it like option dps true somethin like that if you need more info i might ge tyou the link05:39
desertcbrettmr: I've got two and they work fine with xrandr05:40
BADKITTYCrozar: crap no it didn't fix it, it gave me a cube but only 2 desktops05:40
CrozarBADKITTY, youmust add more workspaces it shouldbe 4 to be a cube05:40
Crozarmake horzinal to 4 then BADKITTY05:40
kolinabcake4567: I'm thinking. hmm05:40
Evanlecnickrud, yeah...i even tried to compile a 2.6.23 with -mm1 patch...didnt wanna behave properly tho, wasnt suprised05:40
CrozarBADKITTY, yes im using 2 desktops :p thatsmy options lo05:40
nickrudEvanlec: the restricted modules would either require manual replacement or recompile, etc. Not sure of the ramifications05:40
tomdcake4567, someone in #firefox will probably know why this is05:40
cake4567you need to mess with xorg.conf ...that graphics control panel just wont do it...my 24" isn't work yet05:40
BADKITTYCrozar: it is set to 4 but it gives me a hex instead05:40
CrozarBADKITTY, who wants more desktops lol , btw you can through the same method just addmore. increase05:40
cake4567thanks kolin...I can always just run firefox in wine05:41
riotkittiekenkenshin: as a quick fix for win decorations, ALT + F2 and type metacity --replace [or compiz --replace or emerald --replace]. if youre using compiz-fusion check the decorations plugin, assuming you have !ccsm installed05:41
Evanlecnickrud, all i had to do was use the nvidia binary drivers from nvidia.com instead of the restricted drivers05:41
Evanlecnickrud, tho that wasnt exactly painless05:41
brettmrdesertc: did you set a virtual size in xorg.conf?05:41
Crozarhmm BADKITTY then right click workspaces prefrences , and change that aswell , fidle around with the ubuntu workspace prefrences and compiz desktop tab where i appiointed you.05:41
kolinabcake4567: there really is a way to do it. you just need to properly 'trick' firefox, that's all. Make sure firefox is closed when you do the file xfer, that could screw things up perhaps?05:41
desertcbrettmr: I'm not using xrandr now05:41
nickrudEvanlec: yeah, I'll have the ati ones, and that's actually pretty easy now, with the ubuntu packaging code in the package from ati05:42
shinygiftsonthx nickrud05:42
cake4567I've been closing it05:42

druluxIs there any way to make Ubuntu more organized by somehow dumping the content of the root into a /sys/ subfolder or something05:47
nickrudmultiverse: ubuntu is closely tied to debian, uses the same tools05:47
Evanlecnickrud, o well believe me if i could download nvidia-drivers.deb from their site i would in a heartbeat05:47
multiverseThose tools were not present.05:47
kolinabCan I ask someone to indulge me and install http://sourceforge.net/projects/golly/ to see if it works for them? The program runs OK for me but crashes on the preferences screen, and I'm not sure I'm installing it right.05:47
nickrudmultiverse: one word: kernel-package05:47
multiverseDespite following the instructions in that article.05:47
duvnellokay, I've read some about upstart, but I don't see any reference to configuration files/tasks/etc except for /etc/events.d .. now my events.d directory doesn't have just a whole lot in it.. where is the rest of the config?05:47

ubotusubversion is an open source application used for revision control. It is sometimes abbreviated to svn in reference to the name of its command line interface. Look here for a Subversion How To on Ubuntu: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Subversion05:49
ubotusvn is Subversion: an open-source revision control system, which aims to be a compelling replacement for CVS. See http://subversion.tigris.org/05:49
Evanlecmultiverse, and build-essential05:49
duvnellnickrud: so it looks like everything is still pretty much started from rc#.d scripts?05:49
nickrudrubydiamond: I like svn-workbench , it has nearly everything05:50
multiversehttp://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/44683/05:50
nickrudduvnell: exactly, it's just a drop in replacement for inittab (with fancier parallelism as I understand it)05:50
Shadowswhat is a good chan for xserver issues05:51
scguy318Shadows: here is good05:51

Shadowsoh heya scguy05:51
scguy318Shadows: hello05:51
duvnellI know they wanted to maintain backwards compatability05:51
duvnellanyway05:51
rubydiamondduvnell: how can I know from the root folder of app from command line that...some file is conflicted05:51
duvnellsvn status -q05:51
Evanlecnickrud, why do they need all this repo systems, cvs, svn, git ... what else am i missing? lol05:51
nickrudduvnell: I'd think so, there's a lot of work done on those rc scripts :)05:51
ShadowsI did what you sudgested with the text install so I could reconfigure xserver but I still get the blankscreen of doom05:51
scguy318Shadows: mm, reconfigure but specify vesa this time05:52
nickrudEvanlec: so you can roll back mistakes, track multiple releases, work nicely together, I usually require the first often05:52
SephirothUbuntu recently rebooted and had to start up in safe graphics mode, and I reinstalled the restricted drivers and got Ubuntu to not boot in safe graphics mode. However, while in safe graphics mode, I was able to choose what graphics driver I wanted to use. How would I bring that window back up again?05:52
multiverseSee, this command fails:  debian/rules updateconfigs05:52
multiverseFollowing instructions here:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile05:52
ShadowsI's did05:52
Evanlecnickrud, yes but why so many different ones, why dont everyone just use cvs?05:52
scguy318Sephiroth: SYstem -> Admin -> Screens and Graphics I think05:52
duvnellrubydiamond: or perhaps svn status | grep ^C05:53
k90xkHow do I change my external hard drive from being in read only mode?05:53
scguy318Evanlec: because they each have their own advantages05:53

Sephirothscguy318: Thanks.05:54
primaryHello. Whenever I play many different songs in Ubuntu, eventually Ubuntu "hiccups" or something and loses its record of file associations. I'll double click on an icon and it'll turn into a piece of paper ,and properties will describe it as a "program" no matter what the file actually is. I have to reboot in order to fix this, which is annoying. What is going on, and how can I fix it?05:54
nickrudEvanlec: overkill for me, I just need something that tracks my boo boos on my web stuff.05:54
bazhang!ntfs-3g05:54
ubotuntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions05:54
Evanlecnickrud, im not a programmer so i spose that doesnt effect me much05:54
scguy318Shadows: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, pick vesa this time05:54
scguy318Shadows: that will get you back definitely05:54
Shadowsi did05:54
Shadowsstill nope05:54
scguy318Shadows: mm05:55
nickrudEvanlec: I last did real programming in the 80's and believe you me, I wish I had had them then05:55
tatterdemalianprimary: Playing them at the same time?05:55
Evanlecnickrud, ur web stuff? is it a community project?05:55
bazhangk90xk: see the link (6 lines up)05:55
scguy318Shadows: pastebin your xorg.conf, any way you desire05:55
k90xkthank you bazhang!05:55
primarytatterdemalian: No. For instance, I'll play one song, it'll finish, and then I'll double click on another song to begin playing that one. If I do this too many times, my file associations disappear temporarily05:55
bazhangk90xk: no worries :}05:55
kolinabnobody know how to install software from a tarball? I just don't know if I'm missing a step or what, all the files get extracted but are read only. I think that has something to do with my problem05:55
duvnellrubydiamond: a grep takes a regular expression (aka regex) and you're looking for lines in "svn status"'s output start start with the letter C.. in regex you can place a ^ symbol infront of the pattern to make it match only if that pattern is at the beginning of a line.. therefor | grep ^C makes it find lines that start with a 'C'05:55
Shadowssorry but paste my what?05:56
scguy318!make | kolinab05:56
ubotukolinab: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)05:56
scguy318Shadows: /etc/X11/xorg.conf05:56
duvnellrubydiamond: svn status shows conflicted files with a 'C' infront of them05:56
kolinabscguy, k reading about !make, thx.05:56
duvnellrubydiamond: run svn status -q (q for quiet.. meaning don't show files that aren't versioned) without the grep first.. then you'll see what the grep does05:57
duvnellrubydiamond: you can always do svn --help or svn <command> --help05:57
tatterdemalianprimary: That's weird... I'm under the impression that Ubuntu disassociates files if it attempts to run a file with the associated application but fails. So, basically after starting enough files from the manager, something is making your player crash, and Ubuntu reacts by removing the association.05:57
tatterdemalianOr does it disassociate all file types?05:57
primarytatterdemalian: Except it seems to remove every file association. I can't open text files, music, pictures, documents...anything05:58
HaemothI'm trying to run deluge but it is not working. It usually works after a reboot but how do I get around there? It shows this under the processes but it's not going away.... wotanist  6214  0.1  1.7 103116 36560 ?        Sl   06:26   0:03 /usr/bin/python /usr/bin/deluge05:58
tatterdemalianWow, never heard of that before. Ubuntu does some pretty weird stuff to my file associations too, nothing that extreme yet. Not sure how to fix it.05:58
bruenigHaemoth, kill it05:58
multiversehi all05:59
bruenigHaemoth, just kill python since that is what is really running05:59
Haemothbruenig: How? I tried kill 6214 but it's still there05:59
multiverseAnyone got time to help trouble shoot how to compile BIGMEM into 7.10 Desktop05:59
bruenigdeluge is getting really buggy05:59
primarytatterdemalian: It isn't a big thing, since I can still open programs and have them open the files...Still, just something I was curious about05:59
=== smoenux is now known as WinterWeaver
kolinabit seems there is no ./configure file - does that mean I don't really need to compile?06:00
Haemothbruenig: How do I kill python?06:00
bruenigHaemoth, killall python06:01
brokenwhy would you want to?06:01
Haemothbruenig: Says no process killed.06:01
rubydiamondduvnell: could u give me list of svn commands... like u gave above.. which are essential and mostly used06:01
bruenighmm06:01
kirikadoes anyone know if i can copy my desktop settings from my root account to my user account because my borders are gone and now i cant get them back06:01
shishiouse a knife ti kill that phyton, joke06:01
tatterdemalianprimary: It sounds like a glitch in Ubuntu's routines, but it could also be your player taking over all its associations and dropping them, out of the blue. I can't really tell you much more than that, sorry.06:01
Evanlecduvnell, is there any reason to use svn if you're not a developer?06:01
duvnellrubydiamond: again, svn --help will list them.. but I mostly use svn update, commit, diff, status06:02
brokenkirika: why did you store your settings in root to begin with?06:02
tatterdemalianObviously Ubuntu can recover from it, though, if rebooting fixes it06:02
ianmcorvidaekolinab: Look in the folder and see if there is a README or INSTALL file and read those. They'll typically tell you the installation procedure.06:02
duvnellEvanlec: you can use it to version anything.. and by version I mean that you want to create a file, and modify it from time to time but always be able to get back to any revision in the past06:02
Evanlecduvnell, oh ok, so u could just use it for personal use?06:03
duvnellEvanlec: you obviously have to 'commit' the current state of the file so that you can get back to any commited version06:03
duvnellEvanlec: sure06:03
nickrudEvanlec: a good use is to track changes to /etc , I used rcs for that in debian06:03
Evanlecduvnell, if u were developing like even a webpage for example?06:03
duvnellEvanlec: definately06:04
Evanlecduvnell, track changes to files u edited in your /etc folder?06:04
kolinabianmcorvidae: there is a readme file, all it says that seems relevant is that I can install the program wherever I like. So I just extracted the tarball to the desktop. Then it says I can run it by double clicking the icon, which runs the program OK until I try to open the preferences screen. Then it just closes, and I thought maybe I didn't install it right. Like it didn't have read permission to alter the prefs file or something.06:04
duvnellEvanlec: plus you can use it for collaberative development.. i.e. multiple people editing the same web site and being able to undo other people's chagnes or whatever06:04
Evanlecduvnell, sorta like a rollback safety feature?06:04
=== Shadows is now known as Shadix
duvnellEvanlec: yep06:04
kirikabroken, well what happened was i usually use my normal user account but somehow my borders on all my apps are gone and i cant minimize anything so i can only run 1 app at a time then i have to file then quit it to do something else06:05
kirikaso i wonder if i can take the other settings and maybe transfer them and then restart06:05
Evanlecduvnell, yea i knew it was used for big projects with multiple ppl working on it, didnt realize it had any use for an individual06:05
Evanlecduvnell, i mean, u could just incrementally save your file with a date in the filename instead i spose ya?06:06
duvnellyou could skim a couple of the key chapters of the book (http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.4/svn-book.html) and know pretty quick what it could be used for (chaps 1 and 2 perhaps)06:06
duvnelljust ignore the stuff specific to software development06:06
sfearsi'm trying to configure ndiswrapper and i'm having trouble with the header files.  They are not there and i use the command "ls /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build" but there is no such file or directory and i'm not sure how to create it because i don't know what the uname directory is06:07
duvnellEvanlec: that's one way.. but having it checked into a repository would be a bit cleaner as you wouldn't have tons of files lying around06:07
Evanlecduvnell, alright cool, thx, one more question, would it be better to use svn, cvs, or git? for personal projects?06:07
duvnellEvanlec: plus it's more efficient with space06:07
HaemothSomeone please tell me how to kill python.06:07
duvnellHaemoth: with a hoe?06:07
EvanlecLOL06:07

kirikarestart06:10
Evanlecduvnell, ok nvm, u dont hafta explain that to me, u answered my question06:10
Haemothkirika, well that is my question. How do I do it without restarting? This happens to be everyday.06:10
kirikadoes anyone know if i can copy my desktop settings from my root account to my user account because06:10
nickrudbullgard4: lol, system->about gnome06:10
HaemothMy friend has the same problem.06:10
duvnellEvanlec: git is for distributed development and cvs is dinosaur treats files one by one.. svn tracks all commits as a single change .. so if you commit 10 files it's not 10 checkins in the logs and such.. so if you want to go back to a previous change, it's sure to revert all files affected since that change to that point. etc etc..06:11
newguyhey there, why does sound stop working in 7.10 after like 5 mins after booting up?06:11

eko_hermiyantobut it require ie5.0.106:11
Evanlecduvnell, really, interesting06:11
eko_hermiyantoI have installed the IE06:11
desertcnewguy: oooh -- probably something taking over your sound06:11
newguylike "test" in the sound preferences06:11
Evanlecduvnell, so why i see mostly projects using cvs?06:11
eko_hermiyantobut why it still could not be installed06:11
duvnellEvanlec: definately at least skip chap 1 and 2 of http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.4/svn-book.html06:11
desertcnewguy: did you restart alsa?06:11
newguybecause when i try to "test" my sound, it doesnt work06:11

desertcnewguy Please look at the link I provided you.06:16
cake4567anyone familiar with twinview?06:16
nickrudEvanlec: you really should, and svn-workbench is a good front end for examining/committing stuff. You have to create the repo on the command line, and the redbook is very good06:17
Evanleccake4567, mm, a little06:17
Evanlecnickrud, the redbook? :p06:17
cake4567evan..i edited it a lilttle...lemme see If I got it working...if not I'll b back in 1006:17
nickrudEvanlec: yeah, you were getting good advice from someone who obviously used it more seriously than I :)06:17
bullgard4nickrud: Using your remark, I have found the menu item 'about gnome'.06:18
eko_hermiyantois it any way to install .Net with wine to make my Triton program works in Ubuntu?06:18

kirikanewguy, and try alsamixer restart06:19
cake4567didnt work...I adjusted the 2nd monitor in screens and graphics and it really messed up the resolution of the other06:20
newguykirika that gets alsa restarted, but still no sound06:20
nickrudEvanlec: unless I've mixed it up, it's slang for the svn manual06:20
cake4567that screens and graphics config just doesnt wrok06:20
Evanlecnickrud, he told me to skip chapters 1 and 2? lol, i think the introduction is where i'll start06:20
kirikanewguy, well i dont really know what your initial problem was i was just try to help sorry im not sure06:20
newguykk np06:21
nickrudEvanlec: I think that was a typo, skim is more likely06:21
newguywell this is driving me nuts, all the troubleshooting does nothing06:21
Evanlecnickrud, yea i think ur right06:21
kirikanewguy, what was the problem06:21
newguydesertc that page you gave me did not help much06:21
newguywell when i boot my pc up right, after like 5 minutes i cant listen to music or any sound at all06:21
brettmrHmmm, So i managed to get this "extended desktop" working with xrandr, although apparently they have to be one on top and one below it, because of the older intel chip limitations.06:21
desertcnewguy: you hadn't even tried restarting alsa, so I don't know how much troubleshooting you did... :P06:22
brettmranyways it behaves really strangely, i am guessing it is gnome that is being weird06:22
newguyso when i go preferences->sound and try "test" it gives me: audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink: Resource busy or not available.06:22
newguyi have no idea what the hell that message means06:22
newguyscarely it reminds me of the windows days too06:22
Evanleci feel sorry for anyone using an intel video chip06:22
newguydesertc i did restart alsa06:22
cake4567nvidia blows06:22
kirikanewguy, that used to happen alot to me i would just resart my system and it would fix it06:23
cake4567damn you dual support06:23
desertcresource is busy06:23
newguydesertc still not helping the sound problem06:23
Evanleccake4567, i suggest u try the nvidia-settings app06:23
newguykirika yeah but this means i have to restart my computer every 5 mins just to hear sound06:23
newguykirika duno bout you, but that soon gets a bit tirring06:23
brettmrOne issue i read  about is that randr makes the VGA the primary monitor and puts the panels there, this does happen, but when i switch workspaces, it switches workspaces for both monitors, and if i put an icon on one screen, it will stay there even if the display is turned off through xrandr06:24
cake4567nvidia-settings: invalid option: "app"06:24
kirikanewguy, yea i get it, but i wonder what else is using it06:24
Evanlecnewguy, this might be a shot in the dark, but that sounds like an IRQ problem, perhaps try disabling APCI on boot?06:24
newguyok, in BIOS disable onboard sound chip you mean?06:24
kirikaoh yea thats a good idea06:24
Evanleccake4567, type '06:24
Evanleccake4567, 'sudo nvidia-settings'06:25
newguyok, ill try that, brb06:25
desertcHe's not even checked his devices or anything.  People just come in here complaining and demanding help.06:25

Evanleci feel very satisfied with the ubuntu community, i installed it 3 months ago and got lots of help, now here i am helping others, if only everyone did that...we'd be all set06:28
cake4567thanks evan..... I dont see any changed I can make in sudo nvidia-settings though?06:28
kirikanickrud, oh sorry its just my borders on my apps in my normal user settings are gone and i cant seem to get them back so i wonder if i can maybe copy settings from another user say root and use those settings to fix it06:29
Evanlecin fact, i think the primary reason i dont switch to Arch or another more "technical" distro is because of the ubuntu community06:29

makavelibruenig, hydra-5.4-src.tar.gz06:47
bruenigmakaveli, a .tar.gz file is a gzipped tape archive, it is like asking how do I install a .zip or something in windows. It doesn't have any inherent thing to do with it, it is just an archive.06:47
jimjamrbil: I'll give it a try. Can't do any real damage.06:47
jd_i though he meant compile06:47
bruenigmakaveli, that looks like a programs source code, so you want to extract it, and read the documentation on how to install it06:47

bruenigmsingh, kernel...07:01
bazhangmsingh: language..07:01
msinghbruenig, no, this is the work of someone who went the extra mile to make a great user experience07:01
bruenigmaybe this is why ubuntu gets so much praise, the users don't know enough to understand why their stuff actually works07:02
bruenigthey think, this is happening when I install ubuntu, therefore ubuntu did it07:02
msinghi know that the silly linux kernel has supported suspend forever, but it never worked for me until now07:02
bruenigI guess that makes sense07:02
bmt2i just tried to upgrade from 7.04 to 7.10, and got an error that stated : Faild to fetch http://www.debian-multimedia.org/dists/feisty/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz 404 Not Found07:02

NutubuntuHi - was upgrading from Feisty to Gutsy; the download finished; the installation was in progress, and Firefox segfaulted and it looks like everything stopped. What should I do to restart this process? I'm not sure Update Manager will run ... doesn't seem to :/07:14

Nutubuntuscguy318,  thanks - will that try the download over again? is it possible to save that hour or two ?07:15
scguy318Nutubuntu: the download should be cached I think07:16
jdlizardnot u sorry07:16

NutubuntuRunning sudo dpkg --configure -a ... ...07:17
mrbisterWhat's the easiest what to change default O/S to load in grub?07:17
nickrudEvanlec: yup07:17
Evanlecnickrud, i dont know why there isnt any easy solution to this07:17
cubedsi what is the super key?07:18
Evanlecnickrud, i really hate using wyswyg editors, but even those didnt do what i wanted exactly07:18
Evanleccubedsi, its the key with the windows logo07:18
scguy318cubedsi: the Windows key07:18
rbilmrbister: change default <n> in menu.lst to reflect what u want to load by default ... note: start counting from 007:19
Evanlecya know, the one u always ABHORED in windows ;p07:19
FlynsarmyDo updates downloaded/installed with the update manager get stored in the apt folder and therefore be saved with aptOnCD?07:19
* nickrud wonders what Evanlec would have thought of using sidekick and windriver as a development environment07:19
scguy318Flynsarmy: yes07:19
cubedsiwhat is the super key? i know i just asked but i accidently left the room07:19
* Evanlec wonders what sidekick and windriver are07:19
scguy318cubedsi: the Windows key07:19
hdevalencekinda offtopic, but i'm looking for a bleeding-dge distro to run in a vm so I can test new stuff. What's a good one?07:19
cubedsity07:19
nickrudEvanlec: lol, dos 2.11 times07:19
Evanlecits that key that drove me to pry off when i used windows07:20
nickrudhdevalence: gentoo07:20
scguy318Evanlec: scrap it off and stamp Tux :P07:20
fdd__it should be replaced with Tux07:20
Evanlecnickrud, yea i figured u were being facetious07:20
rbilhdevalence: what's more bleeding edge then gutsy?07:21
Evanlecgod need to think of something funny to say to that07:21
bazhanghdevalence: hardy07:21
Evanlecbut i cant07:21
raynixhello everybody!07:21
scguy318hello07:21
Nutubuntuscguy318,  dpkg --configure gives me "errors were encountered while processing" then lists half a dozen pkgs: compiz, gnome-panel, gnome-control-center, volumeid, libdataserverui1.2-8, gnome-applets, gnome-power-manager, and initramfs-tools.07:21
nickrudEvanlec: yeah, sidekick was a text editor with only one paste buffer, and wind river was a c compiler. You tied it together with batch files. Sucky07:21
beduinhello07:21
hdevalencebazhang: afaik, there have not been any hardy alpha releases07:22
jdlizardwell i guess i might have to stay here to let u guys know how this works out07:22
Evanlecnickrud, yuck, and on DOS? yes that sounds like a nightmare07:22
nickrudEvanlec: state of the art07:22
Evanlecnickrud, lol07:22
hdevalencebazhang: also, afaik, since it's an LTS, they're not using kde407:22
scguy318Nutubuntu: can you pastebin all the errors?07:22
pradalvrcan i setup a proxy with konversation?07:22
bazhanghdevalence: in a couple of weeks should be--for now go with what nickrud said07:22
Nutubuntuscguy318,  that was the only one I saw07:22
scguy318Nutubuntu: well, can you pastebin all the text?07:23
Evanlecactually07:23
jdlizardif this works i will be happy but still confuzed on how it did07:23
nickrudhdevalence: hardy will be broken badly and often probably until January07:23
Evanlechdevalence, Arch Linux is designed for bleeding edge07:23
Evanlechdevalence, and ive read great reviews for it07:23
dahitokiriwould anyone happen to know of an image viewing program that displays all images in a folder recursively?07:23
Evanlecdahitokiri, oh like it would open them all inside the app?07:24
dahitokiriEvanlec, yeah07:24
Nutubuntuscguy318,  would it work to re-run dpgk --configure -a and redirect the output to a file? Or would that cause a problem? I'm not sure my terminal will scroll back through all of it. I'm guessing that some dependencies aren't satisfied but it's a guess07:24
hdevalenceyeah, if i'm trying gentoo, i've actually got a long weekend to play with it, so it should be good. their install page reminds me of the bash.org "It only takes three commands to install gentoo...."07:24
scguy318dahitokiri: gthumb07:24
dahitokiriEvanlec, open them sequentially07:24
Evanlecall images in X folder and all images underneath07:24
dahitokiriEvanlec, yeah, one at a time07:24
Evanlechow would it know what order to put them in?07:24
scguy318Nutubuntu: that should be fine, the top is probably the important stuff07:24
dahitokiriEvanlec, it wouldn't matter07:25
scguy318Nutubuntu: make sure you redirect standard error07:25
Nutubuntukthx scguy318 :)07:25
Evanleci wonder if u could do some sort of symlinking magic to do that07:25
dahitokirifuck. if it doesn't exist, i should make it. it's not that hard...07:26

hdevalenceideally I'm looking for something to play with kde4 in; I tried openSUSE but i'm having problems with it; and I found a debian kde4 live cd, but it doesn't have the option to install. Also it's an opportunity to try new distros.07:27
dahitokiriis kde4 even out yet?07:27
FallenHitokiridahitokiri: no07:27
hdevalenceno07:27
dahitokiridoesn't it have a month for a release?07:27
bazhangbeta407:27
rbilnight folks07:27
FallenHitokiridahitokiri: they _plan_ to release in december07:27
hdevalencebut they've been having problems07:28
Evanlechdevalence, a distro like Gentoo or Arch gives u complete control, such that, u install a base operating system, and then install whatever desktop u want (gnome, kde4, etc)07:28
dahitokiriit won't be useful to general users till 4.1 anyway07:28

WGGMkQuestion about SSH. My server is running SSH and im able to access it locally. but no where else.. its not running thru a router because it is its own DHCP and DNS. on a cable provider using DynDNS.com to update automatically. I was able to log in once accross WAN but not anymore07:35
Evanlecnickrud, would u mind if i asked what your workflow is for web dev?07:36
kirikanickrud, sorry most of my problem i can solve myself but this one stumped me07:36
FlynsarmyI'm using samba to connect to a windows drive through a network. I found a file on the drives top level called nautilus-debug-log.txt containing around 2900 lines of "0x8177800 2007/11/01 02:56:29.3725 (USER): debug log dumped due to signal 11". Is that normal?07:36

e|64How to change the console resolution07:36
scguy318Nutubuntu: cool cool I suppose :)07:36
* Nutubuntu crosses fingers07:37
nickrudEvanlec: code, look, debug, look, debug, look, debug, revision. Rinse and repeat07:37
kirikanickrud, me too but i switched for a faster console because my computer is old and slow07:37
Evanlecbullgard4, probably no tutorial needed, just hit places > computer and open the disks up07:37
Evanlecnickrud, lol, okay, but maybe a little more specific, what apps?07:37
Flynsarmyrubydiamond: Add/Remove programs. It should be in the list07:37
nickrudEvanlec: I pretty much use eclipse, it handles mixed php css xhtml very gracefully, and has a decent task tracker and svn plugin07:38
Evanlecnickrud, it has an svn plug-in?? ooh now that sounds INTERESTING07:38
Nutubuntuscguy318,  when aptitude finishes this, should I also get the pkgs you mentioned earlier (compiz-fusion-plugins-main compiz-fusion-plugins-extra libcompizconfig0)?07:39
WGGMkQuestion about SSH. My server is running SSH and im able to access it locally. but no where else.. its not running thru a router because it is its own DHCP and DNS. on a cable provider using DynDNS.com to update automatically. I was able to log in once accross WAN but not anymore07:39
nickrudEvanlec, it has plugins for a kitchen sink :)07:39
Evanlecnickrud, im sold07:39
Evanlecnickrud, tho of course, my lovely vim may just come back to me07:40
pablassostupid question, i made some users with useradd, but the prompt for them looks horrible, it looks like 'sh-3.1$', even though i copied the same .bashrc to their home that im using on the root account with a beauty prompt, what could it be?07:40
Evanlecnickrud, holy lord, apt-get eclipse: im guessing around 40 packages totalling 114mb asking to be installed07:40
nickrudEvanlec: get the one from eclipse, not the one from ubuntu. I used to use vim for simple stuff, emacs for bigger. Now eclipse for bigger & emacs for the rest07:40
bullgard4Evanlec: Thank you for commenting.07:40
rubydiamondhow to install eclipse with aptana on ubuntu07:40
rubydiamondsimplest and best way I want07:41
nickrudEvanlec: Yeah, eclipse is written in java, you will need a fairly strong machine07:41
Evanlecbullgard4, is that sarcasm? if so i probly deserve it ;p07:41
Evanlecnickrud, Java? (shudders)07:41
=== sahaj is now known as greencookie
Evanlecnickrud, im on x86_64...07:42
greencookieThis is wierd.07:42
bullgard4Evanlec: Yes. There is more about this than only the one procedure which you described.07:42
greencookieMy gnome xchat doesnt have any minimize or maximize buttons07:42
nickrudEvanlec: I run a 1.6 gig dual 64, works just fine07:42
Evanlecbullgard4, okay well that was my understanding of your question07:42
greencookieI have compiz enabled and this happened.07:42
greencookieHas anyone gotten a similar problem?07:43
Evanlecnickrud, but java and 64 ? i cant imagine this working nicely07:43
Nutubuntuconsiderable updating and replacing going on ... scguy318, when this is done, is there a way to check that it's happily complete ?07:43

NutubuntuMakes sense ... thanks again, scguy31807:44
Evanlecnickrud, i'd much rather not, how did u manage it07:44
greencookieHi can someone tell me how to get my minimize and maximize and close buttons back in gnome xchat?07:44
greencookieits eating the entire desktop.. kinda like eclipsed the whole things.07:45
nickrudEvanlec: I run the 32 bit version, I don't do heavy number crunching or video processing, the apps I use aren't optimized for 64bit07:45
kevinis the problem with "no minimize buttons" only occuring with the chat window?07:45
kevini had that happen to me, but it was every window07:45
Evanlecnickrud, u just said u run a 1.6gig dual 6407:46
nickrudgreencookie: maybe the window is just bigger than the screen, try alt-click the window and dragging it down to the left07:46
nickrudEvanlec: chip, yes, os, no07:46

kevinthat happened to me after i upgraded to gutsy07:47
nickrudEvanlec: several times myself07:48
kevini assume it was because i had altered my xorg.conf by hand and during the upgrade it wasn't updated automatically07:48
bazhangcomputer_000: on a home network?07:48
Evanlecnickrud, i usually see about 20 or 30 ppl with that problem on a typical day in here07:48
computer_000yeah, i have both laptops with me07:48
nickrudkevin: no, it's probably because your window manager didn't get started, that's emerald07:48
ianloic_hey, I think the most recent gutsy kernel broke my sound07:48
kevinmake sure you're using 24 bit color07:49
ianloic_is there an apt repo I can point at with old version?07:49
bazhangcomputer_000: and you have a router with wired and wireless capability?07:49
computer_000i try to share my wireless laptop with another laptop but wired07:49
computer_000no router07:49
ianloic_I remember debian had some special repo with everything that was ever built but I can't find that07:49
ianloic_and launchpad confuses me07:49

computer_000this pc is wireless and i can go to the net, but the other the wireless dont work07:50
greencookienickrud: Ah ok. I sense emerald is being lazy and not doing its job on poor gnome xchat. how do I fix him?07:50
Evanlecianloic_, going back to an older kernel would be more of a headache i think07:50
WGGMkQuestion about SSH. My server is running SSH and im able to access it locally. but no where else.. its not running thru a router because it is its own DHCP and DNS. on a cable provider using DynDNS.com to update automatically. I was able to log in once accross WAN but not anymore07:50
ianloic_Evanlec: yes, but I don't feel like manually installing things - that sucks for maintainance07:50
bazhangcomputer_000: adsl/cable?07:50
nickrudgreencookie: hit alt-f2, you should get a dialog box. type emerald --replace in it07:50
computer_000cable07:50
ianloic_Evanlec: it shouldn't be - there was an older gutsy one07:50
Evanlecianloic_, manually installing a kernel probably sucks for maintainence i imagine07:51
greencookieemerald --replace07:51
bazhanggreencookie: try the command emerald --replace in the alt +f2 window07:51

greencookiebazhang: nickrud there is nothing popping up when I hit alt+f207:51
nareshovgreencookie, your wm is down?07:51
Evanlecianloic_, trust me, many ppl had this problem with gutsy, search the forums, the solution is not to downgrade kernel07:51
nickrudgreencookie: hm, you have bigger problems then. No panel at all07:51
nareshovfire up a terminal from the menu07:52
kevingreencookie: if you disable the visual effects, the titlebar should come back07:52

pipelineaudiocan someone help me with this quote? "sometimes utility shows error (you dont have a permissons). The easiest way to solve it, is to boot from Linux livecd (ubuntu or gentoo), and type in terminal 'sudo cfdisk'. Then you should create Darwin UFS partition (A8). Now you can boot to OS X installer again and skip work with partition manager"07:52
pipelineaudioI did that but it still said no permissions07:52

ubotulevander: For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport07:55
nickrudsahaj: hm, what did you do, just before it crashed (if anything, that is)07:55
psychemy friend lost his passwords and im trying to fix it07:55
pipelineaudiobazhang: do you understand how to use cfdisk? I think I did it wrong07:55
psychecant reinstall it because he has his files in there07:55
sahajnickrud: you told me alt+f2 when it didnt work i hit ctrl alt f1 to get into terminal to type emerald --reset07:55
Evanleclevander, there are no good alternatives to ati or nvidia07:55
bazhangpipelineaudio: this is for dual booting on a mac?07:55
psycheso i need some good advice how i can bypass login07:55
nareshovpipelineaudio, use fdisk, press t and select partition to relabel07:55
nickrudsahaj: ah, alt-f7 to get back to X07:56
pipelineaudioquad booting07:56
sahajand when i tried to go back to ctrl alt f7 it shows blank screen07:56
sahajbrb07:56
pipelineaudionareshov: fdsik from windows?07:56
nickrudsahaj: try alt-f8 and alt-f907:56
nareshovlinux livecd07:56
Evanleclevander, i'd say in order of linux support it goes Nvidia > ATI > Intel > anything obscure07:56
SlimG2What command unloads a module temporarily uintil next boot, what command entirely removes a module from the system, and what command blacklists modules on a system?07:56
pipelineaudioinstead of cfdisk?07:56
nareshovIntel > ATI07:56
greencookiewow07:56
greencookiealt f9 worked07:56
greencookiebrb07:56
bazhangcomputer_000: yes I get it--sorry no idea07:56
Evanlecnareshov, i beg to differ07:56
nareshovhmm07:56
bazhangpipelineaudio: using boot camp?07:57
Evanlecesp now with the new drivers coming out for ati07:57
pipelineaudiono07:57
nareshovah07:57
levanderEvanlec: What's wrong with Intel, haven't they opened up the source for their drivers?07:57
pipelineaudiousing ubuntu grub eventually07:57
nickrudSlimG2: rmmod removes it, and adding it to a file in /etc/modprobe.d/ (using blacklist there as a template) will blacklist it. Don't remove it from the system07:57
pipelineaudioI dont have it on except live right now though07:57
pipelineaudiogotta finish the osx install07:57
Evanleclevander, mm, not that i know of, the other problem is that they make onboard video cards, which ive always avoided like the plague07:58
bazhangnareshov: you called it07:58
pipelineaudiogparted shows the partition as fat32, cfdisk and mac show it as unix07:58
nareshov:D07:58
rocketsAnybody reccomend a good icon editor?07:58
pipelineaudiosudo cfdisk07:58
nickrudrockets: inkscape07:58
Evanlecpipelineaudio, i suggest gparted live cd because it has support for a lot more filesystems, including hfs, than regular gparted07:58
rocketsnickrud, oh yeah, guess I could use Xara xtreme too.07:58
pipelineaudioI followed the instructions in that quote, but it didnt say what to do, like write it or what07:58
pipelineaudioI have the gparted live cd07:59
nickrudrockets: svg icons are the way to go07:59
pipelineaudiogparted live is showing the partition as fat3207:59
rocketsnickrud, xara does svg.07:59
nickrudrockets: wasn't disagreeing, more agreeing07:59
rocketsah07:59
Evanlecrockets, yes i agree with nickrud, i'd never used inkscape before and i made a snazzy icon in about half hour07:59
rocketshaha07:59
rocketscool07:59
D-Elitedrunk07:59
D-Elitesleepy time nows07:59
nareshovpipelineaudio, the installer you're using needs to see a hfs type partition which it selects and formats+installs onto07:59
D-Elitepce07:59
pipelineaudioright08:00
arooni-mobilehey folks!  is there a way to make thunderbird cache my online network calendars?08:00
nareshovso use fdisk to relabel a newly created partition08:00
pipelineaudioso according to that quote, you can use cfdisk in ubuntu to set up that partition which osx will then format08:00
pipelineaudiobut Im not sure how to use cfdisk correctly08:00
EvanlecreLABEL ? i think that is not what u mean08:00
nareshovhe needs to relabel it, the osx installed will format+install08:00
Evanlecdisk labels are used by Solaris I think08:00
nickrudpipelineaudio: cfdisk is pretty simple, your options are at the bottom.08:01
greencookienickrud: why isnt ctrl alt f7 not working while alt f9 is??:(08:01
nareshovrelabel as in, call it a hfs TYPE partition08:01
pipelineaudioso, gparted klive shows the partition as fat 32, cfdisk is showing it as Darwin UFS08:01
Evanlecperhaps u mean format it08:01
rocketsah i cant use xara xtreme, minimum size is too big08:01
greencookiealso do i  type emerald --remove?08:01
Evanlecformat as hfs ya08:01
gdubzguruis there an installation guide for Beryl that works with the new Gutsy Gibbon release?08:01
zapakitulhey guys08:01
zapakitulany ideea how to install wow dvd with wine?08:01
nareshovgdubzguru, compiz-fusion08:01
zapakitulits on dvd and i cannot find the install.exe08:01
zapakituli just bought the game08:02
nickrudgreencookie: because your X is running on vc9, not vc7 like it should be. Happened to me a couple of times on gutsy, I went to vc1 and restarted gdm (sudo invoke-rc.d gdm stop , sudo invoke-rc.d gdm start)08:02
pipelineaudioshould I delete it from gparted then run cfdisk? maybe thats why its still fat3208:02
rocketsnickrud, where is the damn pencil icon08:02
ZaidenHas anyone Successfully installed Ubuntu onto a Flash Drive?08:02
gdubzgurui'll check it out. thanks08:02
nareshovpipelineaudio, listen to me carefully08:03
greencookieok nickrud if i do "sudo invoke-rc.d gdm stop/start i can get it back in vc7 im guessing08:03
nickrudrockets: locate pencil08:03
nareshovyou know the partition number you created?08:03
rocketshuh08:03
pipelineaudioyeah08:03
rocketswhat do you mean locate pencil08:03
rocketshow do i "locate" it08:03
nareshovgood, now is your hard disk /dev/sda or /dev/hda ?08:03
nickrudgreencookie: ah, yes, that's what I meant :) And it cleared up other problems at the same time.08:04
nickrudrockets: in a terminal, type locate pencil08:04
rocketsnickrud, i meant in Inkscape.08:04
pipelineaudio its /dev/sda308:04
rocketsnickrud, how do i use a regular pencil style brush08:04
nickrudrockets: ah, lol08:04
nareshovpipelineaudio, do sudo fdisk /dev/sda08:04
nareshovyou'll get the fdisk prompt08:04
nareshovtype "t"08:04
nareshovhit enter, type 3, hit enter08:05
sahajnickrud: awesome. but you know what nick? I'm beginning to like irssi:) hahaha as crazy as that sounds.08:05
detectiveinspektHi, I installed the nvidia drivers but I always need to install the to startx after a restart. What is the solution?08:05
nareshovnow type a8 hit enter, then type w and hit enter08:05
=== sahaj is now known as greencookie
nickrudsahaj: a lot of people run it in a terminal in X08:05
nareshovand then get back to your installation08:05
rocketsnickrud, I realize that its SVG but I'd liek to do "pixel by pixel" drawring08:05
nickrudrockets: it's on the right vertial menu bar08:05
rocketsyeah the freehand drawing tool sucks though08:05
rocketsit makes my lines squiggly for no reason08:05
nickrudrockets: ah, that's why I use inkscape, I hate pixel by pixel. Vector drawing doesn't include it08:06
greencookienickrud: I run it in vc1. quick question what does vc stand for? virtual console.08:06
rocketsnickrud, so how DO you draw08:06
pipelineaudioyeah thats what I did last time nareshov08:06
rocketson that small of a level nickrud08:06
greencookienickrud: how well do you know irssi?:)08:06
nareshovand what happened?08:06
nickrudgreencookie: virtual console08:06
nickrudgreencookie: I use xchat :)08:06
pipelineaudiogparted still shows fat32 while fdisk shows darwin ufs08:06
nareshovwhat did the installed say?08:06
nareshovosx installer08:07
nickrudrockets: for the stuff I did, I created patterns and overlayed them08:07
pipelineaudioand osx still says I cant format it and doesnt recognize it as an installable partition08:07
nareshovis it a primary partition?08:07
nareshovof course08:07
greencookienickrud: brb08:07
nareshovsda308:07
pipelineaudioyeah08:07
nareshovwhy don't you use the disk utility in the osx installer itself, worked for me08:07
pipelineaudioerrr08:08
Evanlecrockets, if u want to draw raster graphics, use gimp08:08
pipelineaudiobecause it says "you dont have the necessary permissions"08:08
pipelineaudiohold on lemme type the quote again08:08
rocketsEvanlec, yeah its a favicon so it wont be resized which means raster is fine08:08
pipelineaudiocan someone help me with this quote? "sometimes utility shows error (you dont have a permissons). The easiest way to solve it, is to boot from Linux livecd (ubuntu or gentoo), and type in terminal 'sudo cfdisk'. Then you should create Darwin UFS partition (A8). Now you can boot to OS X installer again and skip work with partition manager"08:08
Evanlecrockets, oh ok08:08
nickrudrockets: it didn't matter what size I did the drawing in, it's vectorized. When I exported to bitmap, then I chose the size08:08
inversekinetixi just tried xfce by accident, why isnt it the default for ubuntu?08:09
rocketsim going to try baby gimp08:09
Evanlecrockets, tho personally i'd like a vector image just as a "master" incase i needed to change it08:09
bazhangpipelineaudio: macbook?08:09
pipelineaudiowhats that?08:09
nareshov:D08:09
nickrudinversekinetix: because it sucks ;)08:09
bazhanguh never mind08:09
marybuntuanybody familiar with asterisk?  i *think* i downloaded it from synaptic, but it doesn't appear in any of my menus...08:10
inversekinetixnickrud: no it doesnt08:10
pipelineaudiorestarting ubuntu live08:10
nareshovpipelineaudio, whatever that quote wants you to do with cfdisk is equivalent to what I told you to do in fdisk, I'm surprised it doesn't work >_>08:10
pipelineaudiolemme see what it says now08:10
pipelineaudioI think I better delete the fat32 partition in gparted08:10
inversekinetixnickrud: I can imagine it is so much easier for people switching from windows to adjust to08:10
nickrudinversekinetix: really, the reason ubuntu chose gnome (I think, anyway) is it requires less from the user to create a usable config08:10
pipelineaudioI dont know why gparted still says fat3208:10
nareshovinversekinetix, some think KDE does the job better08:11
GmacGood morning08:11
greencookiemy xchat is MESSED up:(08:11
nareshovpipelineaudio, can you do the fdisk procedure and check once more?08:11
inversekinetixnickrud: III agree with that, if xfce had a couple of default congifs it would be perfect for a newcomer08:11
pipelineaudioyup08:11
Gmacquick question, ive got flashplugin-nonfree installed through the package manager, but Firefox still won't display flash (7.10)08:11
nareshovand make sure you write the changes08:11
inversekinetixive yet to try kde08:11
pipelineaudioshouldnt i delete it in gparted first?08:11
nareshov"w" not "q"08:11
SlimG2nickrud: Does rmmod and modprobe -r do the same thing?08:11
nareshovdoesn't matter08:12
pipelineaudiohttp://gparted.sourceforge.net/features.php08:12
pipelineaudiobummer08:12
greencookienickrud: How do I shut down vc7? its still on:)08:12
pipelineaudioit does hfs but not hfs+08:12
nickrudgreencookie: close xchat, and try rm -r ~/.xchat208:12
Gmacdo I have to do anything within FireFox to get Flash working?    (fresh 7.10 32bit install)08:12
nickrudSlimG2: yes08:12
greencookienickrud: i've already deleted the .xchat2 folder in my home directory. no use.08:12
rocketsEvanlec, but i dont get how to draw on such a small scale without doing it pixel by pixel.08:12
nickrudgreencookie: did you install xchat-gnome or xchat?08:13
EvanlecGmac, just go to flash.com or do 'sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree08:13
greencookienickrud: gnome08:13
greencookienickrud: xchat-gnome.08:13
GmacEvanlec: its already installed08:13
Evanlecrockets, scale is...irrelevant, since vectors can be scaled infinitely08:13
rocketsEvanlec, mm.08:13
EvanlecGmac, then ur all set, go to youtube08:13
nickrudgreencookie: close xchat, and try gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/xchat-gnome , and removing the .xchat2 dir again08:14
Evanlecrockets, only proportion is relevant, relevant to other objects in your drawing08:14
GmacEvanlec: YouTube doesn't work :)08:14
greencookienickrud: wow hold up..how do u copy paste in irssi?:)08:14
pipelineaudiook booting up now08:14
bazhangGmac: did you have firefox running when you installed flash?08:14
GmacEvanlec: ive not done anything out of the book, just downloaded the flash plugin and its never appeared to work for some reason.08:15
turtlethereGmac: you need additional drivers to play flv08:15
pipelineaudiogparted is still showing fat3208:15
GmacEvanlec: Im sure I closed it when I did, but possibly?08:15
EvanlecGmac, k wel try flash.com08:15
nickrudgreencookie: if you're running it in a terminal in X , just high light the text, move to another terminal, and press the middle button08:15
riaalcan winrar unpack .tar? :S08:15

eko_hermiyantogreencookie, well, you use gnu emacs :D08:17
bazhangDraco_: gnomebaker, k3b are two08:18

bazhangno problem08:18
EvanlecGmac, okay, sounds like ur install got borked08:18
nickrudgreencookie: and emacs is great, but overkill for this :)08:18

greencookienickrud: is there anything the GUI can do that the terminal cant? apart from obvious things like games.08:27
nickrudmarybuntu: ah, I don't use thunar, but I would expect it to act similar to explorer08:27

inversekinetixhow do you set cpu affinity in ubuntu08:30
greencookieEvanlec: nickrud: what if i wanna write a paper using just terminal. is there something like microsoft word for tty?:)08:30
Evanlecinversekinetix, affinity? like use this cpu over that? or priority?08:30
MilitantPotatonickrud: I am, I believe it has something to do with X user permissions, so I had hoped i'd get some help here08:30
GmacEvanlec: FireFox doesn't seem to want to know (no addon popup)08:30
greencookieEvanlec: lol. ok.08:30
=== mizz is now known as mel
nickrudgreencookie: emacs08:30
nickrudMilitantPotato: ah, does gksudo work properly?08:31
greencookienickrud: thnx I was typing 'emac' not 'emacs'08:31
EvanlecGmac, hmm, that suggests the problem lies within firefox, check firefox plug-ins see if anythings in there08:31
Evanlecgreencookie, VIM!08:31
soboyhi,all08:31
greencookieEvanlec: you mean 'vi' ?08:31
john__hey guys so I have a dell imspiron 5150 running ubuntu gutsy...basically the screen freezes and i have to restart my whole laptop...i have a restricted nvidia driver installed08:31
inversekinetixEvanlec: which cpu to use08:31
NeoTubNinjathere is vim also08:31
Evanlecgreencookie, yes, vim is just vi enhanced08:31
NeoTubNinjanot just vi08:31
greencookieEvanlec: I didn't even know how to exit that thing.08:32
greencookieEvanlec: ok once I finding apt-getting emacs:)08:32
bullgard4English help wanted. The normal Ubuntu 7.10 disk has a menu option "Start in Safe Graphics mode" or similar. What is its precise English name?08:32
MilitantPotatonickrud: yes.08:32
NeoTubNinjajedit anybody?08:32
Evanlecinversekinetix, i heard someone say that was possible, but not so simple as like windows task manager style08:32
nickrudMilitantPotato: then it seems to be a kde issue, not X08:32
Evanlecinversekinetix, otherwise i dont know sorry08:32
MilitantPotatonickrud: ok, thanks :)08:32
Evanlecgreencookie, emacs is not that easy either08:33
pipelineaudionareshov: its saying its not mounted08:33
inversekinetixEvanlec: np, i thought it should be easy in linux, i wanna use all my cores at once, not just max one out08:33
marybuntunickrud: found it; can't make heads or tails of it... lol ... do you know of any open source pbx that comes with graphical interface?08:33
Evanlecgreencookie, i know, i was frustrated with vi too when i stated, but once i started learning it, just fell in love08:33
nareshovpipelineaudio, mount it08:33
pipelineaudiohow?08:33
pipelineaudioI click the mount button and no go08:33
greencookiebrb08:33
nareshovbah08:33
pipelineaudioin the osx installer I mean08:34
Evanlecinversekinetix, recent linux kernels will do symmetrical multi-processing automatically08:34
nickrudmarybuntu: no, I don't know of any. asterisk is the only pbx I know of, but it's not something I know much about08:34
inversekinetixEvanlec: Im running supre PI  and it only uses one cpu, the calculation time is slow08:34
Evanlecnickrud, why did u just convert him to emacs?! WHY?? :(08:34
marybuntunickrud: k, thanks for your help.  i'll search around...08:35
greencookieEvanlec: I will try both. also, I will try lynx08:35
Evanlecinversekinetix, im not familiar with that program...what is it?08:35
inversekinetixEvanlec: its a program that figuires out PI to millions of decimal places08:35
Evanlecgreencookie, oh, well lynx might be crap, its just the one i tried to use in a pinch to change router config, the others might be better08:35
sfearsi saw a video of a person who could recite pi to millions of decemial places08:36
Evanlecgreencookie, but I am stubbornly in support of Vi over emacs08:36
ZombieAnyone run OpenVPN on Ubuntu?08:36
sfearsi was impressed08:36
Evanlecinversekinetix, ooh, that sounds like good stress tester ;)08:36
greencookieEvanlec: I will definitely consider it since emacs is taking so darn long to apt-get:) lol08:36
Evanlecinversekinetix, can i apt-get it?08:36
nickrudmarybuntu: and I stand corrected, there's a gui in development, I found http://www.asteriskguru.com/tutorials/asterisk_gui.html08:36
greencookieEvanlec: lynx looks like a pretty "cool" browser:) hehe08:36
sfearswhat's the apt-get uninstall command?08:36
sfearsapt-get install remove08:36
nickrudsfears: apt-get remove08:37
greencookieEvanlec: as for Irssi, i'm already finding it irreplaceable.08:37
sfearsahhh08:37
Evanlecgreencookie, thats because emacs is huge and bloated, and installs all sorts of helper apps and what not, it tries to integrate itself into every bowel of your system08:37
inversekinetixEvanlec no08:37
nickrudEvanlec: heresy. It is the bowel of your system08:37
Evanlecinversekinetix, can u point me to it? it could just be that app...i can test on my system08:37
inversekinetixEvanlec: http://files.extremeoverclocking.com/file.php?f=3608:37
Evanlecnickrud, well, i'll agree with that08:37

greencookieEvanlec: wow.08:43
Pie-rat2visik7: there's a bug with apt. there's no way to fix that problem, the same thing happens with compiz. you just have to ignore it08:43

Pie-rat2visik7: but i was told by the compiz repo maintainer that it was a bug with apt, not with their repo08:44
GmacEvanlec: Well before I copied over my old FireFox files I had made a back up of the fresh installed .mozilla directory. So I rolled back to that one, then re-copied over bookmarks back ontop.08:45
Bambang_arjunayes, my internal modem not detected, i have compiling the slmodemd and wingrabmodem, but with no luck08:45

nickrudBambang_arjuna: that's about all I know about internal modems, sorry.08:45
EvanlecGmac, ah i c08:45
GmacEvanlec: I think I must have accidentally picked up the extensions file by mistake at the time.08:45
brownie17nareshov, okay thankyou08:45
EvanlecGmac, yea08:45
bullgard4English help wanted. The normal Ubuntu 7.10 CD has a menu option "Start in Safe Graphics mode" or similar. What is its precise English name?08:45
Pie-rat2dialup in ubuntu seems kind of silly. you shouldn't have to download drivers to get a connection working. i had the same problem on a friends computer, i expected it to just work like most other things and it didn't.08:45
GmacEvanlec: one other question if I could? (not FF related)08:46

nickrud!lamp | Tarkus_08:47
ubotuTarkus_: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)08:47
* nickrud makes a note to look at kmysqladmin08:48
EvanlecGmac, hmm, well there is a way u can get into the config files for the menus, but thats a little rough08:48
EvanlecGmac, my suggestion is to just apt-get install wine and see if u get actual menu items, then try uninstalling if u so desire08:48
GmacEvanlec: it seems strange that its left a load of rubbish08:48
EvanlecGmac, it happened to me too08:49
GmacEvanlec: so reinstall wine, then try and de-install?08:49
EvanlecGmac, wine's not so great at making menu entries08:49
Bambang_arjunainterl modem, wvdial no carrier "" problem08:49
GmacEvanlec: problem is it was for a game, so I will need to reinstall the game :) ok thanks - will give it ago.08:49
EvanlecGmac, yea, actually, dont apt-get, download the deb from winehq.com08:49
greencookieEvanlec: nickrud: ok I think it might take me some time (maybe a couple of years will do) to learn emacs. In the meanwhile is there any command based mp3 players? if such a thing exists lol!08:49
GmacEvanlec: will do,08:49
EvanlecGmac, i think thats what i did, and my menu items work nicely now08:49
Tarkus_nickrud, there is nothing in there for 7.10, do i just follow to 7.04 one?08:49

legolas-SanWhy doesn't Ubuntu have a "boot-only" CD version like FreeBSD does? Seems stupid like hell to waste bandwidth to download a 600 MB ISO and burn it when you could just get a few-MB installer which fetches all necessary (and UPDATED) files via FTP.09:07
nucc1kahrytan: use the 'screen and graphics' tool in the admin menu09:07
kahrytannucc1,  nope09:07
nucc1legolas-San: if you were complaining of insufficient speed to grab the image, your case would have been stronger09:07

nucc1you enable the "widescreen" check?09:08

Lenkocan I update the system from the iso?10:11
SpeeFakk i try greencookie10:11

greencookieSpeeFak: whats ure native language?10:11
tomdguyvdb_: are you doing that as root? maybe the port # is reserved10:11
Evanlecgreencookie, yea, u know how to do tab completion right?10:11

greencookieEvanlec:lol!10:13
Evanlecgreencookie, yea, and of course u know the up and down arrow keys to recall cmds10:13

Evanleci have my web development layout setup here, got all the apps, websites, files i need....if i could have it all come back again that would be MARVELOUS!10:29
nanonymesince if it does, you could just change /etc/apt/sources.list to have gutsy instead of feisty and use the cd as the first repository10:30
nanonymethen after updating apt, you can upgrade to gutsy using the cd10:30

nubaeits a stupid decision10:37
nubaewhy take php4 out without putting it in backports or at least multiverse10:37
Evanlecnubae, if backports said it referred to php4, i would look a little harder10:38
ghost_Someone able to assist with a resolution problem in 7.10(Eventually wanting twinview)10:38

rishabh_sirbijan: Press Alt+F2, type "gconf-editor"10:51
sirbijanok10:52
Evanlecbuttercups, can u see how it would be useful tho? for example, if i wanna do web development, there's a bunch of apps, windows, files/folders, and websites/info that i need open, it would be nice to just be able to have it all open for me with 1 click10:52
sirbijanthen? going to desktop and then...10:52

Slartsirbijan: there are .trash or perhaps .Trash directories in lots of places10:55
Evanlecgreencookie, u dont need to do the entire vimtutor in one session, just do like the first 5 lessons, then practice it a bit outside10:55
ToMaKi want to uninstall ubuntu7.04 on my lapetop.anyone know the best way to uninstall it10:55

penguincentralhi.  I have a plantronics usb headset, and I want the audio that is played in firefox to come out of my headset instead of my speakers.  how can i do this?10:57
sirbijan;)10:57
rishabh_Hey! How do I find out if any process is using "hw:0"? Jack control says it's blocked!10:57
ToMaKevanlec - owh icic thx for the tips10:57
buttercupsEvanlec, have you heard of Xnest?10:57
Evanlecbuttercups, no, please enlighten me :)10:58
sirbijanhey guys, this question doesn't relate to ubuntu, but now that i can feel the cacoon of friendship here, i shoot, don't get mad at me!10:58
ToMaKwhat is the diffreances of ubuntu, kubuntu and xubuntu?10:58
dooglusToMaK: different default packages is all10:58
wiseleodifferent flavors... same thing10:58
sirbijanwhat cell phone do you personally suggest me to buy?! I wana know your ideas10:58
buttercupsEvanlec, me either just ran across it , http://lifehacker.com/software/notag/run-multiple-sessions-at-the-same-time-with-xnest-268745.php10:58
ToMaKand wich oone is better?10:58
wiseleosir - Windows Mobile 6.0 device :)10:58
sirbijani have some money i wana get a cell, i'm just too picky!10:59
dooglusToMaK: they're all the same quality10:59
wiseleo<- "slightly" biased...10:59
sirbijanwiseleo: ;)10:59
ToMaKdooglus - ooo icic10:59
dooglusToMaK: since they're the same thing, just with different initial package lists10:59
buttercupsEvanlec, not sure about saving them though for later10:59
wiseleosirbij - they are the best... I have ssh on mine :)10:59
SlartToMaK: ubuntu uses gnome, kubuntu uses KDE, xubuntu uses xfce.. they look different.. behave a little different and xfce differs by being a little lighter on system resources10:59
Evanlecbuttercups, yea....11:00
dooglusToMaK: ubuntu can use xfce or kde, kubuntu can use gnome or xfce, etc.11:00
SlartToMaK: and by uses I mean, it uses by default.. you can still run KDE on ubuntu if you want to11:00
dooglusToMaK: I'm currently running xfce in ubuntu, for instance11:00
wiseleosirbij - but full disclosure... I work with Palm on promoting WM6 and with Microsoft's Windows Mobile team as a presenter... as I said "slightly" biased.11:00
ToMaKowh11:00
Evanlecbuttercups, think i may be on to something: http://www.yolinux.com/TUTORIALS/GNOME.html11:01
dooglusToMaK: you can install all 3 at once if you like, and have a choice of which desktop environment to run each time you log in11:01
ToMaKwhat is a KDE and XFCE(i'm still a noob)11:01
ghost_Hey, trying to get my resolution to 1440x900 but keeps dropping back to 800x600, anyone got any ideas?11:01
dooglusToMaK: KDE and XFCE and GNOME are three different desktop environments11:02
wiseleoTomak - it really doesn't matter for you at this stage yet.11:02
wiseleoLearn the system, then look into customizing it. Far less headaches11:02
ToMaKdooglus, wiseleo - oooo....icic....thx guyz for the tips11:02
pontehello, i have problem with installation fluxbuntu 7.10, i've download image and burn cd with k3b but when i boot computer it hasn't started from cd. I remember to change boot sequance in bios, so it must be sth diffrent. Have You got any idea?11:02
SlartToMaK: why not download and burn the 3 live CD's for the different distros.. then you can try them out and see how they behave and which you like11:03
wiseleoponte - test the CD image in vmware. If you can boot from it in VM, then it's computer-specific problem11:03
ToMaKslart - i try download the kubuntu and xubuntu11:04
ToMaKafter i install my ubuntu it messup my bios now it can't detec my cdrom11:04
dooglusToMaK: don't worry about it too much - any program with run in any desktop environment11:04
ToMaKdooglus - OK11:04
Evanlecthere is no way that ubuntu could have messed up your BIOS11:04
dooglusToMaK: kubuntu and xubuntu will have the same problem almost certainly11:04
wiseleoCoincidence. We don't mess with BIOS11:04
SlartToMaK: ubuntu ate your bios?? never heard of that before.. is it even possible??11:04
greencookiehow do I suspend from cli?11:04

Evanlecgreencookie, might need a sudo11:06
ToMaKwich one got better effect Feisty Fawn or Gutsy Gibbon or Dapper Drake?11:07
EvanlecToMaK, gutsy11:07
wiseleoTomak - define "effect"11:07
wiseleoVisuals? Always the latest distribution11:08
nuccoI can't believe no one has an x1k series ati card in here11:08
Evanlecthink he means desktop effects, compiz11:08

icaniccan someone help me with the compiz rain effect?11:09
wiseleonom- by default, drives are in write-through mode. Write-back cache improves performance11:09
Nom-wiseleo: Is there a guide somewhere I can find instructions on how to set that up ?11:10
ToMaKwiseleo - what is the diffrencs of XP and ubuntu????beside the ubuntu effect?11:10
wiseleoNom- don't know, I'll be looking for it11:10
Evanlectarelerulz, hard to say, check firewalls, ports open, proxies (irc dont like open proxies), try changing the port u connecting to to 8001, check for things like peerguardian, check basic connectivity (dns, ping, etc)11:11
wiseleoTomak - uh... you really don't want to ask me that question (I know Windows too well)... short answer - nothing in common11:11
Nom-Also, i've just noticed with SLI turned on that i'm getting a flickering when switching between virtual desktops... it only seems to happen on terminal screens (so far)11:11
tarelerulzEvanlec,  thanks .11:11

tarelerulzI use pidgin for irc and yahoo so maybe that is it11:13
alcestequick question: does ubuntu SPARC server edition support sparc32 ?11:13
Ginwiseleo, what does resolution have to do with performance11:13
nuccoGin: maybe your display card is not so fast11:13
bullgard4!envy/lastlog bullgard411:13
wiseleoGin - X performance? Screen redraws happen faster at lower resolution in suboptimal configuration11:13
GinI have to say that I got an onboard inte video card11:14
ToMaKhey thanks guyz for helping me11:14
ToMaKgtg now11:14
nuccoGin: if you're using the right drivers, performance difference shouldn't be noticeable11:14
nuccoGin: btw, what resolution is the bigger monitor?11:14
wiseleoGin - using an optimized X server for your card will make that difference go away...11:14
ToMaKmaybe i will use my laptop onlu for ubuntu...HAHAHAHAHAHA11:14
bullgard4What are the properties of the 'safe graphics mode' which you can choose as a menu option and operating mode of the Ubuntu desktop CD?11:15

Ginhow can I get it?11:17
EvanlecOgre-Eater, none whatsoever, it is only for the deskbar search applet11:17
wiseleoGin - look at documentation that has to do with optimizing Xorg perforamnce11:17
buttercupsEvanlec, no, don't think devilspie can either, I'm out of ideas11:17
wiseleoGin - I don't know ubuntu-specific steps11:17

EvanlecOgre-Eater, actually of all the lameness of vista, one thing i really liked about it was its search feature, it was pretty slick and would pull up just about anything, not just filenames11:19
greencookieEvanlec: could you tell me the command to start gmd?:)11:19
stefanookay, the system seem quite busy. hope it works11:19
sidletG'night greencookie, Evanlec11:19
wiseleostefano I am assuming this is for web? chown -R www-group:www-group ./*11:19
Evanlecbuttercups, alright, that'd be awesome, if u get any leads drop me a line: evanlec@gmail11:19
Evanlecsidlet, nite11:19

theelbermungsterhi, i'm new to ubuntu, and i have a few questions.11:20
mollekhi11:20
ecoxhi11:20
=== adante_ is now known as adante
Ogre-Eatertheelbermungster, Ask them :D11:20
ecox:P11:20
stefanowiseleo: not it is for a new server i just set up in my local network. i have a user called stefano and a bunch of files and folders all in the directory 'unsorted'. i want all of them to belong to 'stefano' i did this: 'sudo chown -R stefano unsorted/' is this right?11:20
greencookieEvanlec: also can you tell me how to shut down tty7?11:21
wiseleostefano - yeah, you won't hurt anything11:21
theelbermungsterwell, first i am a very up to date person on software.11:21
wiseleotheelber - ask your question please.11:21
greencookieEvanlec: nvm:) i got gdm on tty911:21
theelbermungsterand i can't update my packages.11:21
theelbermungsterhow can you update them?11:22
Evanlecgreencookie, yea..usually just type exit to log out of a tty11:22
krisbo9000how do i give permission to write to one of my harddrives11:22
Merijnfirestarter keeps closing for no apparent reason, is there a way to find out what's wrong with it?11:22
Evanleckrisbo9000, check if its hardware or software locked first, try writing to it with sudo11:23
Ogre-Eatertheelbermungster, I think sudo apt-get update should try to update . Unless you havent told us about an error you get when you do that11:23
krisbo9000ok11:23
stefanowiseleo: thank you very much, worked perfectly. now i'll set up ftp and such.. bye11:23
krisbo9000once i work out how to do that as well i will ...11:23
dibbalaminhi every one11:23
lirimhello11:23
MorticeOgre-Eater: apt-get update only updates the list of available packages. apt-get upgrade actually 'updates'(upgrades) your packages.11:24
theelbermungsteroh, and another thing, i'm not keen on terminal commands either.11:24
lirimhllo11:24
krisbo9000i really just want to have permission to do anything -it is after all, my computer11:24

gordonjcpkrisbo9000: that's a fairly bad idea11:24
lirimhello11:24
USHTARI_GV ODAM BO WC11:24
Morticetheelbermungster: assuming you're running gnome (ubuntu standard), a tray icon will tell you if there are available updates. You can install them from there.11:24

raddyHello Everybody11:25
gordonjcpkrisbo9000: generally by the time you're proficient enough to know *why* it's a bad idea to have full access to everything all the time, you're skilled enough to get away with having full access to everything all the time11:25
gordonjcpkrisbo9000: now, what exactly are you trying to do?11:25

GaryUSHTARI_GV, stop that11:26
raddycan anybody help?11:26
krisbo9000i dont permission however11:26
Evanlecgordonjcp, thats a good little anecdote on security11:26
wiseleokrisbo - so create a directory and give yourself permissions11:26
gordonjcpEvanlec: born of experience, I'm afraid11:26

gordonjcpEvanlec: "hey look, I can just run as root!  Oh bum, what happened there?"11:27
Evanlecgordonjcp, u wouldnt know how to save a gnome/xsession permanently (for later use) would u?11:27

gordonjcpkrisbo9000: what kind of drive is it?11:27
gordonjcpkrisbo9000: like, what filesystem?11:28
Evanlecgordonjcp, yea but all that does is save it for the next logon, i wanna be able to open that session anytime i want11:28
wiseleoYou can expand your file system capacity nearly infinitely transparently11:28
krisbo9000its an external sata 500gb drive, formatted ext311:28
raddycan anybody help me on thatttttt11:28
gordonjcpEvanlec: hm, good question11:28
gordonjcpEvanlec: I must admit that while I admire the problem, I don't really have a solution11:28
Evanlecgordonjcp, like rite now i have all the apps/windows/files/websites/etc. layed out for doing web development...i'd like to save this, for when i wanna do web dev again11:28
gordonjcpEvanlec: yeah11:29
Evanlecgordonjcp, would be such a timesaver11:29
gordonjcpEvanlec: suggest it to a dev...11:29
Evanlecgordonjcp, aww it can't be that hard11:30
gordonjcpEvanlec: presumably not11:30
Evanlecgordonjcp, there are xsession files stored somewhere, just not sure where11:30
gordonjcpEvanlec: figure out what saves the session11:30
gordonjcpEvanlec: find . | grep xsession ?11:30
carl_why windowmaker has no upgrade, :(, it is the best :(11:30
prologichey all, I have compiz running with compiz --replace but I can't seem to get it to do anything - none of the hotkeys work and no compiz plugin or feature seems to be working (I do have everything installed and there are no visible errors)11:30
wiseleocarl - you are welcome to work on it ;-)11:30
Evanlecgordonjcp, whats the . for11:30
gordonjcp"this directory"11:31
wiseleo. - current directory11:31
Big-EHave you managed your advanced desktop effects settings, prologic?11:31
crdlbprologic: installed how?11:31
gordonjcpEvanlec: assumes you're somewhere sensible for starting to look for xsession files11:31
Evanlecgordonjcp, oh, well i wanna seearch a little broader than that11:31
Evanlecgordonjcp, mm, sensible, yes ;p11:31
gordonjcpEvanlec: find will rattle through the directory and any subdirs11:31
Evanlecgordonjcp, yea11:32
Evanlecgordonjcp, how often does find update its database? and how does it compare with locate?11:32
wiseleoactually you want find -name :)11:33
rubydiamond_what is best gui svn client for ubuntu11:33
crdlbfind doesn't use a database11:33
nantaxcan i play divx movies in xubuntu?11:33
rubydiamond_and also what is best gui mysql client for ubuntu11:33
rubydiamond_nantax: ofcourse11:33
wiseleoruby - web apps tend to be most advanced11:34
rubydiamond_gordonjcp: do u know any mysql and svn gui client for ubuntu11:34
rubydiamond_and which is best11:34
* Big-E likes when people ask questions and you help them, then they leave.11:34
nantaxlol11:35
wiseleoLOL...11:35
nantaxhow do i go about installing the divx codec?11:35
crdlbBig-E: lovely indeed11:35
wiseleoThere are what... maybe 10 clients?11:35
nantaxi just switched to xubuntu the other day11:35
Evanlecwiseleo, find -name ?11:35
Big-ESure is, crdlb.11:36
ezquerrohi to everybody11:36
ezquerrosince couple days ago i'm having some problems with compiz11:36
wiseleoevan - yeah... works better "find . -name whatever*11:36
ezquerrothe title bar disappear in all the windows11:36
ezquerroand i have to exit the session to restore them11:37
ezquerroit's a little annoying11:37
ezquerroanyone knows why is this happening and if there's a solution?11:37
ezquerroi'm using gutsy11:38
JimmytakeoverHi, i am getting this error message saying 'hdd is not ready for command'.11:38
Jimmytakeovershould I use hdparm to reset the drive?11:38
Evanlecezquerro, it hapens to everyone, just do somethin like emerald --replace, or metacity --replace11:38
Jimmytakeoverand funnily enough, this happens everytime i use k3b to create a disc image.11:39
Evanlecits quite literally the MOST common problem in this channel11:39
crdlbezquerro: you *never* get titlebars in compiz now?11:39
wiseleoOne more reason why I don't install GUI :)11:39
ezquerrocrdlb, i get the titlebars, but sometimes they disapear11:39
dreamkeeperhi there...is some1 here that actually knows ubuntu and he has 3 min to help me on something plz?11:39
benpiccoHi, when i plug in my usb stick, i get an message saying "mount refused" - only whan i mount it manually using sudo it works - but then there are right issues+11:39
Big-EGUI's are pretty, and just like pretty girls, they are fun to look at - wiseleo. ;)11:39
crdlbezquerro: are you using emerald?11:40
bajusmnnnmu11:40
bajusmkengur11:40
ezquerrocrdlb, yes11:40
Evanlecwiseleo, how does it work better than find . | grep ?11:40
bajusmok11:40
crdlbezquerro: emerald is very buggy,  so it crashes sometimes11:40
wiseleoBig-e - yeah I know I just get annoyed at linux guis. I just answer "server"11:40
benpiccoshould i past the last lines of dmesg output?11:40
whyking_how can I install vmware server? Its not in automatix11:40
wiseleoEvan - find is a very flexible command on its own. No grep necessary11:40
wiseleowhyking - 32bit or 64bit?11:41
Big-Ewiseleo - True, when I get back to my house (currently else where playing rugby) I plan on setting up some boxes and running ubuntu server with no GUI and really learn some linux. ^^11:41
stefanoi'm behind a NAT Firewall. how can i retrieve my outside ip-adress without flooding anyones server? (e.g. via google.com)11:41
ezquerrocrdlb, is there any window decorator more stable and nice?11:41
wiseleostefano - whatismyip.com11:41
Evanlecwiseleo, oh i c11:41
zaharazodwhois yourself?11:42
Evanlecwhyking_, get it from their website11:42
wiseleotrying gforge on yet another distro.. Dapper this time lol11:42
Big-Estefano - http://whatismyip.com/11:42
crdlbezquerro: the default gtk-window-decorator is extremely stable11:42
Evanlecwhyking_, or getdeb.org11:42
Big-EOpps, already mentioned.11:42
ezquerrocrdlb, metacity?11:42
Evanlecwhyking_, or perhaps apt-get11:42
greencookieisnt there a way I can keep different wallpapers for different desktops? I'm using Gnome.11:42
crdlbezquerro: it uses your metacity theme, but it isn't metacity11:43
benpiccohttp://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/44718/11:43
stefanowiseleo: i dont want to get a file, cut it here and there and then save it. besides those sites dont like it when you retrieve your ip continously. isnt there a more clean way where i can use somebodys server who has way enough bandwith like google?11:43
stefanooh i should say i want to make it a cronjob11:43
ezquerrocrdlb, thanks a lot11:43
ezquerroi'll remove emerald11:43
crdlbezquerro: if you want to use it, then uninstall emerald11:44
Evanlecgreencookie, actually if there is a way, i think its much more than simple11:44
wiseleostefano - hmm you can always abuse google analytics11:44
Big-Estefano - use something like dyndns.com11:44
wiseleoit's dyndns.org11:45
stefanowiseleo: if i type traceroute www.google.com it tells me my ip in the fifth like, i want to use that,  it doesnt generate much traffic i suppose and neither google nor my provider will complain11:45
wiseleostefano ah, you want your first upstream? Just use dyndns and forget it11:45
stefanoBig-E, i dont want a dynamic dns, i just want my server to know its ip.11:45
Big-Ewiseleo - dyndns.org redirects to dyndns.com ;)11:46
wiseleogood :)11:46
stefanothere has to be a way to cut the output of traceroute www.google.com down to just the ip, in a nice and clean way11:46
Big-Estefano - check http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/556/12.html#topic711:47
Evanleccan anyone suggest a relatively easy command line avi to dvd converter?11:47
gdubzgurui've spent the evening installing and configuring ubuntu after a friend turned me onto this. screw ms vista. thx so much for this os11:48

Big-EUm, well set up your nat as a DMZ.11:49
blenbbis there a repository with virtualbox in it?11:49
stefanothat will probably not work with my router i suppose11:49
benpiccois there some way to tell the ntp client to use a proxy?11:49
stefanoi could grep the ip adress from the output of tracerout with a regular expression, coudnt i?11:50
Evanlecblenbb, should be on universe11:50

Big-EI am usually floating around here.11:54
greencookiebenpicco: is it an ipod?11:54

benpiccono, a normal usb sd card reader - dmesg tells me http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/44718/11:55
ikoniabenpicco: whats the problem ?11:55
benpiccogreencookie, i can mount it using sudo manually, but then only root has acces to it11:55
melook ikonia thanks11:56
benpiccoikonia, it's not mounted by HAL11:56
* greencookie scratches his head while looking at Evanlec .11:56
Evanlecgreencookie, im not if any of them do....i could be wrong tho11:56
ikoniabenpicco yes, because of the "usefree" option11:56
greencookieMan I still have to figure out how to access weblinks from irssi tty11:56
benpiccoikonia, how got this option there?/how to disable it?11:56
ikoniabenpicco:  you need to change the hal rules/options for that device, but i've not got an ubuntu box to hand to check the default11:56
Evanlecweblinks?11:56
Evanlecoh u mean urls?11:57
ikoniabenpicco: it will be somehing like /etc/hal.d/hal.conf11:57
greencookieEvanlec: yep.11:57
Evanleceasiest way i think is install gpm and use the mousey ;)11:57
Myrttigreencookie: where are you running irssi in11:58
Myrttigreencookie: vty or a terminal app?11:58
benpiccoikonia, there is a /etc/hal/fdi11:58
ikoniabenpicco don't know fdi ?11:58
greencookieMyrtti: tty11:58
Myrttiurgh :-(11:59
greencookieMyrtti: ive heard VC (virtual console) tty(tele tyle) whats vty:) hehe11:59
Morticegreencookie: the openurl plugin should work. It uses w3m to open pages by default, iirc.11:59
greencookieMyrtti: im reading the man tho:)11:59
greencookieMortice: erm. I'm just using irssi, so isnt it built in?12:00
Morticegreencookie: nope.12:00
Morticegreencookie: at least, not as far as i know12:00
Evanleccan anyone suggest a relatively easy command line avi to dvd converter?12:00
EstethHey all. Every time i open nautilus, it crashes. I then force-quit it, but it just opens again and isn't crashed. But once i start using it, it crashes again. Any idea what's wrong, and how to downgrade nautilus if possible?12:00
greencookieMortice: ok.12:00
greencookieEvanlec: lol cli FTW!12:00

Ogre-EaterI can play wma files one Ubuntu if I wanted by using installing the w64codecs correct?12:02
Ogre-Eateron*12:02
Myrtti64codecs?12:02
soundrayEsteth: I suspect that your nautilus is okay on a system level, and that the problem is in your user configuration. You could run nautilus as another user to test if that's true.12:02
kaola64codecs??12:03

Ogre-Eater=S I thought i saw it called somethign like that somewhere12:03

ricanelitewhen i take out songs from my ipod using the Music Player and I click on my ipod icon on my desktop the songs are still there12:05
EvanlecOgre-Eater, theres lots of 64 codecs12:05
greencookieO.k I guess irssi does not have built in support to use links.12:05
* greencookie looks for a workaround.12:05
wiseleohere we go again... I am tempted to go visit gforge, llc witha  shotgun tomorrow12:05
Morticegreencookie: openurl is very good.12:05
Evanlecgreencookie, use the mousey12:05
Meskittplop12:05
greencookieMortice: does it work with irssi?12:05
RoyKI just installed this old laptop with an 802.11g pcmcia card, and networking works, for a while, but after starting ubuntu update, it downloads for 20-30 seconds and so on and then networking dies until I reboot. a ping running in the background works until this happens, then pauses, and then fails with 'sendmsg: No buffer space available'. Same happens with two different cards (d-link and CNet). Any ideas what might cause this?12:06
soundrayEsteth: have you laboriously customized your nautilus?12:06
Morticegreencookie: it's an irssi plugin, so yea :)12:06
greencookieEvanlec: lol, my mousie's been MIA for about 8 hours now.12:06
Evanlecgreencookie, oo12:06
Morticegreencookie: http://irssi.org/scripts/scripts/openurl.pl12:06
greencookieMortice: oh lol, didnt know. so apt-get install openurl?12:06
greencookieMortice: sad part is i can only gawk at that url from my tty112:06
greencookielol12:06
Morticegreencookie: download that file into $HOME/.irssi/scripts/autorun12:06
wiseleoaptitude is a neat little tool12:06
Estethsoundray: Not as far as i know. I upgraded from feisty to gutsy, but the problem appeared a few weeks after. If it helps, my emblems are really really small, but that's not something i set myself.12:06
greencookiemortice ok hold on12:07
Picigreencookie: no, if you have the irssi package installed, its already in /usr/share/irssi/scripts/ probably.12:07
Morticepici: good point, it probably is12:07
MarcoPaugutsy is automatically finding my nikon digital camera but I can't find where it's mounted. can anybody help^12:07
MarcoPau?12:07
soundrayEsteth: if you don't mind resetting your nautilus configurations, log out, choose a failsafe terminal session, log in and do 'rm -r ~/.nautilus .gconf/apps/nautilus', then log out and test within a normal session.12:08
Evanlecgreencookie, http://shortify.com/SD412:08
Evanlecgreencookie, i shortiffied it...but a little too late12:09
soundrayEsteth: correction12:09
soundrayEsteth: 'rm -rf ~/.nautilus ~/.gconf/apps/nautilus' (doesn't actually matter unless you cd away from your home directory)12:09
Estethsoundray: Ok, thanks. I have to reboot to get failsafe terminal?12:10

greencookieEvanlec: it says firefox is already running, but I dont see it. Its invisible. is there a way I can kill something that I cannot see?12:11
greencookiePici: so openurl should already be working rite? how do i goto a link from irssi?12:11
Evanlecgreencookie, yes my son, you must feel your enemy with your fingertips, not with your eyes12:11
Morticegreencookie: you need to load it first with /script load12:11
anzanEvanlec pkill firefox12:11
Evanlecshh12:11
greencookiebrb12:12
Morticegreencookie: and once that's done, every time someone posts a url, openurl will echo "Openurl (a number)" to the screen12:12
Evanlecgreencookie, then u must give the ultimate blow kill -9 firefox !12:12
imduffyhow do i dual boot windows xp and ubuntu using  NTLDR12:12

soundrayEsteth: no, just log out and choose it from the session options at the login window12:12
soundrayMarcoPau: a 'mount', entered in a terminal by itself, should tell you. Look at the last line.12:12
soundrayMarcoPau: if it's not mounted, then gutsy communicates with your camera via a special protocol. PPTP I think it's called.12:12
chimaerahello, is there a way to prevent gdm from restarzing after X crashes?12:13
MarcoPausoundray: how can I normally mount it?12:13

Evanlecgreencookie, hvin some issues with elinks, cant even get to my router config page, must be lacking cookies, or someting12:15

ThcMancan someone tell me what this error means when i try to make alsa-utils? http://rafb.net/p/aSyTRk29.html12:15
imduffy<soundray>  because i format my windows xp alot and its annoying having to install grub each time12:16
soundrayMarcoPau: hm.  Run tail -f /var/log/syslog while you plug your camera. It might be more informative than dmesg12:16
Evanlecsoundray, because hes a damn foo12:16
soundrayEvanlec: please, that's unnecessary12:17
MorticeThcMan: It means there's a mv command in the makefile which tries to move t-ja.gmo, but it can't find that file.12:17

RoyKI just installed this old laptop with an 802.11g pcmcia card, and networking works, for a while, but after starting ubuntu update, it downloads for 20-30 seconds and so on and then networking dies until I reboot. a ping running in the background works until this happens, then pauses, and then fails with 'sendmsg: No buffer space available'.

soundrayH-Town: boot from a live CD and do it with gparted12:44

H-Towni have to return this laptop and get it replaced, so i'm putting the original OS on it and i'm putting ubuntu back on the new laptop, fyi12:45

Whitorubstud: can you switch to a virtual terminal?14:26

minus198zaharazod,14:27
Whitoryou don't open wine...14:27
HunterKilleryou know when the password prompt comes up on the screen and everything else dims? That dimming effect seems to be incorrectly calculating my resolution because it doesn't fill the whole screen. I think that's likely because I use an external monitor for my laptop because my laptop's LCD is broken14:27
Piciubstud: You dont open Wine to run games, you need to run something like `wine game.exe`14:27

ThecksWas about to say you can use recursive if you want to do all files and folders no matter how deep15:00
erUSULdjm62: it depends on what you have installed on your machine15:00
Sharpiegenii: so i'm guessing -R means the dir and everything in it?15:00
LjLdjm62: if it's going to *download* 1253M (download, or *install*?), then a CD will save you about half of that, but no more15:00
systemd0wngenii, you use webalizer before?15:00

geniiSharpie: Yes, Recursivley15:01
broken_How can I fix this?15:01

jmagderHas anyone had a problem where they restart their computer, and it resumes from a hibernate file, even though they "restarted" and didn't hibernate?15:01
systemd0wngenii, Its a log analyzer?  I was looking to monitor a remove server15:01
Inuyasha32246so suddenly firefox font zoom is fuked up15:01

hussamjmagder: statee it15:01
Inuyasha32246and no i didnt accidentally ctrl+15:01
geniisystemd0wn: Since the web logs also contain the uptime of the webserver it is there too15:01
jmagderhussam: Sorry, not sure what you mean. :)15:01
hussamjmagder: did u reboot it from the system or did u force one?15:02
Inuyasha32246any ideas?15:02

jatt403 Forbidden15:02
djm62LjL: at this stage I'm confused.  it's reporting that it's going to download 1253M, but I'm running it off the cdrom and presumably most of that should be on the CD.  I can't imagine that I have the default install plus a gigabyte plus of random extras.  if I do, I can afford to remove them, but I can't download that much15:02
jatt?15:02
systemd0wngenii, right but if the server is down i wont know right now. i will know when i have access to the logs again :)15:02
Sharpiei'll be more specific this time, let's say i want to backup my firefox profile folder (~/.mozilla/..) every day. which program would be best suited for the task?15:02

hussamooo wait15:03
hussamlogg the session off15:03
LjLdjm62, try changing the sources.list manually to gutsy (keep a backup!), and doesn't an apt-get update; apt-get dist-upgrade, but WITHOUT saying "Yes"... just look at what it says it's going to download.  just to make sure it's not just update manager going mad15:03
Inuyasha32246sudo apt-get install sbackup15:03
jmagderhussam: Yes, its a linux problem.  Unfortunately it corrupted my HD.  I rebooted and so many inodes were then linked together.15:03
LjLdjm62: then restore the backup sources.list15:03
Inuyasha32246for sharpie15:03
geniisystemd0wn: A simple thing you could do is write a shell script that does a ps |grep apache         then if not true emails you a note the webserver is not running15:03
LjLdjm62: and when i said "and doesn't", i meant "and do".15:04
SharpieInuyasha32246: try to start the sentence with "Sharpie:", that way it's highlighted15:04
SharpieInuyasha32246: anyway, i'll try it, thanks15:04
Inuyasha32246kk15:04
djm62LjL: Good Call, and exactly the sort of advice I was looking for15:04
hussamjmagder: hrmmm...... force an unpected reboot like directly from the cpu15:04

hussamnope15:05
hussamcutt the supple of power15:05
hussamthen plug it back it15:05
geniisystemd0wn: As far as some gui app which you can monitor the webserver...consider, if the server is down and the app runs there, you will be in a catch-22 of not being able to access it and so know the server is down etc15:05
broken_Whenever I turn on my computer (19 inch widescreen) my monitor goes blank until the login page says something about out of sync 90hz / 60 refresh :/15:05
dimeotaneInuyasha32246: you can change fonts with mouse scroll button and alt +15:05
Picidimeotane: I suggest asking in #xubuntu, most of us here use Gnome not xfce.15:05
Inuyasha32246ok15:05
Inuyasha32246thats nice and all, but should I worry that they changed on their own?15:06

Inuyasha32246during install list option no acpi15:10

Symmetriahrm thats odd, in /etc/network/interfaces I have a definition that looks right but it doesnt start on boot15:11
djm62LjL: that's weird, dist-upgrade says it needs to get 1616M, as opposed to 1253M which would imply that  only 363 MB of packages would come off the CD.  is that sane?15:11

hypa7iaIsolder: lol, true16:07
soundrayIsolder: no, normally it sets up one user and adds that to the admin group automatically16:07
Isolderi see... very odd..  i am pretty sure it specificallys said the user wouldn't be admin.. oh well. i'll run the install again and see what happens16:07
Isolderthanks for your help16:07
Paddy_EIREAx-Ax, just adapt this guide to 98se http://apcmag.com/5459/dualboot_ubuntu_and_windows_xp16:08

Paddy_EIRE2000 imo16:08
Ax-AxPaddy_EIRE, Does the 98 installer work the same way?16:09
soundrayemacs22 always shows the welcome screen first instead of the file I open -- annoying. Is there an easy way to turn that off?16:09
Isolder98 is the best version of windows?16:09
Isolderyou haven't used windows in 10 years?16:09
hypa7iaAx-Ax: if by "very best" you mean "completely unsupported and not security-patched in 5 years16:09
Paddy_EIREAx-Ax, there should really only be a few subtle differences.. otherwise come back here if you have any trouble16:10
Isolderseriously.. 98 is not even close to a good version anymore16:10
Paddy_EIREIsolder, best version of windows is the version that you dont run16:10
Paddy_EIRE;)16:10
hypa7iaAx-Ax: lots of software won't even run on it anymore16:10
hypa7iaPaddy_EIRE: true!16:10

soupedany advice on setting up an xp/ubuntu dual boot?16:11
Ax-Axhypa7ia, Isolder, I only want to run some programs, that doesn't even work on XP.16:11
Isolderax.. like what?16:11
Paddy_EIREsouped, http://apcmag.com/node/5162/16:11
soundray!dualboot > souped, please read ubotu's private message16:11
Isolderyo'ure putting the internet at risk by running 98se. and that's the truth ^_^16:11
Ax-AxIsolder, reeeal old games16:11
soundraysouped: if you already have XP, it's easy. Just let the installer resize the XP partition.16:11
ariczAx-Ax, like? you have w9x-"emu" in winxp16:12
Isolderyou'd be better off running vmware16:12
Isolderand indeed, xp can run most any 98 apps in compatibility with no trouble16:12
ariczyups16:12
fifafrazerI have a very odd issue with a network printer. The printer is an old Minolta CF910 color laser printer/copier with a Fiery X2 printer server. I can easily print to using WinXP, but I have some problems using CUPS. I've tried with Samba, IPP and LPD protocols. LPD 'almost' works. I can send documents to the printer, and in the printer's web spooler application, I notice some action in the RIP queue, but the document is never send16:12
fifafrazer to the print queue, and nothing happens... I'm using the CUPS daemon.16:12
Ax-Axaricz, isolder: I WANT 98 anyway :(16:12
aricztsss.. you stubborn you.. ;) good luck16:12
Isolderwell16:13
dmi3onhi, i have shared folder in windows vista and i can't makelink of this folder16:14
Isolderdon't user the net on that 98 install then.. it's a bad idea and a security risk that affects others than just you16:14
ariczaffects others?16:14
soupedso comments on ubuntu vs kubuntu vs xubuntu for dual boot for web development?16:14
dmi3onif i try to move to desktop its just copy folder16:15
Isolderyes, affects others16:15
soundraysouped: install ubuntu, then add the kubuntu-desktop and xubuntu-desktop packages. Then you can compare them all side-by-side16:15
hypa7iaAx-Ax: if they are that old, have you looked at dosbox? i've found really old games often run better on that16:15
ariczdo I really have to add a "how?"16:15
Ax-AxIsolder: If i get viruses, only Windows users get them from me16:15
aricz:]16:15
Isoldera 98 machine could easily be compromised and used to perform malicious actions against other networks16:15
soundrayAx-Ax: what about spam?16:16
Isolderthose networks could also be running linux boxes16:16
Isolderso it won't just affect windows users16:16
fifafrazersouped, ubuntu vs kubuntu vs xubuntu depends on what desktop environment you prefer16:16
soundrayIsolder: is Windows MR any better in that respect?16:16
Ax-Axsoundray, what about not using mail?16:16
IsolderMe, you mean?16:16
soupedfifafrazer: i guess kde for development16:16
soundrayAx-Ax: doesn't help, if your machine is subsumed into a botnet16:16
fifafrazersouped, Then it must be kubuntu :)16:17
soupedfifafrazer: and gnome for home16:17
fifafrazerI prefer xfce4 for both16:17
soundrayIsolder: indeed, I mean ME ;)16:17
PHuberhey there -  i just upgraded to gutsy and have a question to compiz: ( i dont know how the effect is called .. when u move the cursor to the right upper corner and all opend windows are "fly" next to each other an u can pick one to work with )  ... how is this called and how can i deactivate this or change the corner .. its VERY annoying because its very close to the close buttons..16:17
Isolderyou put a 98 machine on an open network, and chances are it will be ruined by the end of the day.. unless you're very lucky16:17
nibsa1242Hi, I have a problem on my laptop. If I don't use it for a while, (and I have suspend & hibernate turned off) my keyboard stops responding. This seems to happen more often (or only) if I close the screen and its idle long enough for the screensaver to come on, but it still happens if I turn screensaver off. My mouse/touchpad still works when this occurs. Any help?16:17
Isolderand yeah i'd say ME is just as bad16:17
soupedfifafrazer: what about xubuntu, would it take up less space on a dual boot situation?16:18
Paddy_EIREPHuber, err.. move the close button16:18
Paddy_EIREPHuber, the effect is called 'Scale' by the way16:18
Ax-AxIsolder: I'm on a little LAN with some safety16:18
soundrayIsolder: okay, I'll keep it in mind (got an old ME laptop that I sometimes use for serial devices)16:18
Isoldersoundray: installing the server again and i dont think it's going to give me admin privileges, this isn uts16:19
zechsHi all--is there something like 'gnome-dock' that is both available and working?16:19
soundrayIsolder: what's your install source? Ubuntu Server CD?16:19
PHuberPaddy_EIRE .. hmm, dont what about " move the close corner"... but thx, ich will serch for this effect16:19
Paddy_EIREzechs, gnome-dock is both available and working16:19
Ax-AxIsolder: there is viruses for Linux too16:19
fifafrazersouped, I think it would use less space, but I'm not sure... You could pick the alternative disk and do a minimum install. That would use less space :)16:19
Isolderyeah.. i downloaded the 7.10  server image yesterday16:19
nibsa1242soundray: you can get a usb-> to serial adapter if you want to use those devices with XP... and possibly Linux16:19
soundrayAx-Ax: yeah, in laboratories16:19
soupedok kubuntu it is16:19
fifafrazerI prefer xfce over gnome, because it has almost the same functionality, but is faster. I dont like the KDE look and feel, but I dont know for what reason :P16:20
nibsa1242I need help with fixing an issue where my keyboard doesn't respond to any key presses if I leave my laptop idle for >2hrs or so.16:20
soundraynibsa1242: I know -- but a Thinkpad 240 is a really nice machine. The Asus Eee may be the first real competitor ;)16:20
Paddy_EIREPHuber, err lol.. I did not say to move the corner... move the button.. you do know you can put it anywhere16:20
soupedfifafrazer: kde has the kio that seems to integrate with the file manager...16:21
soundrayIsolder: I'll quickly check launchpad for reports...16:21
dmi3onwhen i try to make "link here' the shared folder which is in windows, its says "error unsupported operation"16:21
dmi3oncan any one help plz16:21
narothepharohhow do i open a 7zr package?16:21
Paddy_EIREPHuber, also you can use System> Preferences > appearance to access the compiz-fusion control center... from there you can change which corner scale works on16:21
nibsa1242soundray: don't know about that particular model, but every Thinkpad I've ever used has been a nice solid machine... haven't used one in a few years though16:22

jimjamTomcat_ Good to know. Thanks16:22
soupedso looking at the iso... what is alternate vs desktop16:22

dmi3onTomcat_: i have to make in linux folder and shere it with other com. ?16:23
PHuberPaddy_EIRE thx, it worked. just changed the corner -> now it should be fine16:23

excitatoryalrigh, so i have a radeon 9600 with dual heads (VGA & DVI).  I want to add a second monitor to the dvi port and have a spanning or extra wide desktop.  someone told me not to use xinerama anymore and to look into randr 1.2.  i've searched around and everything i find is a bit confusing.. is there a coherent guide for setting this up?17:30
devilsrejectsh ./ati-driver-installer-8.28.8.run is the cmomand but i cant get it to run17:30

folliaubotu, you are right, and I know that, but I don't have other ways at the moment, not through network18:01
brobostigonsamba18:01
sethkJimmyDee, try using the full path to the library, rather than just /usr/local/lib18:01
Yasumotoand comment out the thing in the beginning line about using a cd as your archive18:01
sethkJimmyDee, /usr/local/lib is the default, so that argument isn't going to change anything  :)18:01
Yasumotosfears: ^18:01
stefgjsschmid1: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation has some tricks for you18:01
JimmyDeesethk, thats the directory the lib is installed in, I can see the dern thing, but it cant18:01

sethkJimmyDee, is it telling you it can't find the library?18:01
ganymededmi3on: -o username=someusername,password=somepassword18:02
JimmyDeesethk, ama: error while loading shared libraries: libami.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory18:02
sethkJimmyDee, I know that the library is there, I'm just saying that, since it's the default location, providing the directory to ./configure can't fix the problem.18:02
sethkJimmyDee, you mean when you are trying to run it?18:02
JimmyDeesethk, good point18:02
greencookieshould I dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg?18:02

abadtoothYasumoto:  okay lemme check18:03
RoudiHey folks!  Purchasing a new machine with the intention of installing Ubuntu on it, and checking out hardware compatability.  I've been Googling every piece of hardware and everything seems supported except for the graphics card.  It's an  Nvidia GeForce 8500 GT 256 MB.  Most I can find on Google is that some people do have driver issues, and Envy might solve them, but I've found no definitive help.18:03
sethkJimmyDee, first do    echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH    see what the current value of it is18:03
dajhornadac2: Yes, but be very careful.18:03
Yasumotoabadtooth: it's at the very end of the comments18:03
abadtoothYasumoto:  okay, lemme try it, thanks!18:03
folliaubotu, I have been there and 1- i don't have a running installation on the same machine, the OS it was running is damaged 2- i don't have cdrom 3- i dont' have a working usb18:04
RoudiCan anyone confirm that there is, indeed, a method of getting a GeForce 8500 running under Ubuntu?18:04
kladiusI need help with dvd playback can some one help me?18:04
GerritHow do I tell my WLAN-card to connect using 802.11b rather than 802.11g? It is a Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG Network Connection.18:04
JimmyDeesethk, thank you kindly sir, its on like donkey kong now18:04
folliacan Iplug the hdd as a usb and make it bootable?18:04
sethkJimmyDee, excellent  :)18:04
=== maco_ is now known as macogw
GerritIt seems to try to connect using 802.11g to a wireless router which is configured to use 802.11b; hence, it fails (at 28%, according to knetworkmanager)18:04
dajhornkladius: Start here: http://www.medibuntu.org/18:04
sfearsalright.. that kinda worked, guess that package was only avail on the 6.10 cd18:05
Yasumotoabadtooth: you have to use spacebar to select things, I believe. make sure that you have 1680 highlighted18:05
sethkRoudi, In general, yes.  sometimes there are less general problems; does 3d work, does DRI work, that sort of thing, but in general it certainly works.18:05
santh_what is gnome how to install it18:05
Yasumotoabadtooth: and if it breaks, go to a console and redo the command back to 140018:05
sethkRoudi, I don't run that particular nvidia card, but I run four other nvidia cards without significant issues.18:05
dajhornkladius: Ubuntu is not bundled with the libdvdcss2 package, which is what you need to play movies on DVD media.18:05
sethkRoudi, if you are a gamer, though, my opinion is worthless18:05
Picisanth_: Gnome is the default desktop environment for Ubuntu.18:05
golem1so i'm going to set up ubuntu on a pc that'll sit under a TV and play xvid/dvd files.  choice of geforce 4000mx or radeon 9200.. which would you suggest?18:05
lwlhehe18:05
abadtoothYasumoto:  what would I type for that?18:05
santh_kde means18:06
Roudisethk - I wouldn't say I'm a gamer, but I definitely intend to try running The Orange Box on this new machine (using Wine to run Steam and the games).18:06
jadrus /m irc.supernut.de:700018:06

bts3685whoever was asking about Unreal Tournament 2004: check out the list of channels here and the howto- http://pastebin.ca/77729118:06
sethkRoudi, then you probably need to find someone who at least runs wine with that particular card18:06
abadtoothYasumoto:  I'll need to restart x wont I?18:07
dajhorngolem1: Go with the nvidia card.18:07

Yasumotoabadtooth: yeah, ctrl+alt+delete18:07
RoudiThat could be tough, sethk ;) Awfully specific combination.  I'll hit Google again and see if I find any more specific answers.  At least I know the machine itself will run with the card.  Thanks!18:08

musashii'm still looking for an easy tool to recode an .iso or .avi (or other format) to a smaller size for playing on a psp, etc. I've tried k9copy, devede, and vlc. none seem to offer a simple way to select a target resolution and shrink. note this is not encrypted video.18:20
minus198musashi, ffmpg..18:21
sethkminus198, yes, but first look in the X log and see if it is actually on.  Look for fbdev or fbmod (frame buffer device or frame buffer module) or something similar.18:21
agreifhi18:21
gordonjcpmusashi: ffmpeg or mencoder18:21
sfearsPiterDeVries: ohh, i had that problem after my 7.10 upgrade. if i used my real time kernel i got the same thing. i used the generic kernel and didn't have a problem18:21
musashiminus198: yeah, actually tried ffmpeg but it wasn't overly "simple" didn18:21
dajhornminus198: Use "SystemPreferences -> Appearance -> Effects " and set it to none, and try it again.18:21
musashi't try mencoder18:21
sethkgrindcore, the installer can do its own partitioning.  You only have to worry about partitions if you are keeping an existing installation and want to dual boot18:21
agreifwhich python version is in feisty?18:21
minus198dajhorn, already done.. And it didn't help.. I need to restart X to get it to work18:22
sfearsPiterDeVries: i'm gonna need some more help on this one, but if you edit your boot/grub/menu.lst file and point to a different kernel (not sure how to figure out which one) a generic kernel it will proally fix you up18:22
dajhornminus198: Okay, per mushashi, you probably have a framebuffer or a driver glitch.18:22
grindcorei have winxp with 2 partiotions and I want to put down everything what is there - make a clean install of ubuntu18:22
musashigordonjcp: is mencoder command line? i was hoping to find a simple gui. i'm trying to impress hs students with the variety of cool tools available18:22
dajhorns/mushashi/musashi/  (oops)18:22
sethkgrindcore, if you want to destroy what's already on the disk, just tell the installer to use the entire disk18:23
sfearsactually you might not have a boot/grub/menu.lst file yet, so you might have to make one18:23
Ubuntupwnsagreif, just look in the synaptic package manger for "Python" and  it will show what version is installed or not18:23

jsschmid1I am running GUTSY with kernel 2.6.20-16-generic, obviously something went wrong during the UPDATE... is it possible to update my kernel or will it even worse as before?18:24
musashino worries18:25
sethkjsschmid1, we can't know if it will make it worse unless you tell us how bad it already is  :)18:25
core64jsschmid1: what went wrong? why do you think you need to update kernel?18:25
Poul|RaiderEvery time i boot up, and logged on, it prompt me to ask if i want to keep gnome settings or use x(keyboard). if i press keep gnome the keybord is configured right, but if i say use x its useing wronge settings, but if i check my xorg.conf then it is set to the right setup pc105 and dk etc18:25
minus198sethk, So you are out of ideas?18:26
grindcoreafter boot - i select the install, then was quick loading of parts of install or whatever and then some type of files - just changing the code number- was slowly trying to load- but wasnt successfull18:26
jsschmid1core64: because it is not the current Kernel of Gutsy but of Feisty, so I think there are some issues. One of it beeing missing header files for my 2.6.20-16-generic Kernel18:26
sethkminus198, yes, unfortunately, that's the only thing I've seen that causes that problem.  Not saying there aren't other reasons, just that I don't know about them.18:26
scottjHow do I search for the largest files on / (and not include other partitions mounted like /home)?18:26
Rengcan you use "hddtemp" to detect external drive temperature?18:27

Renghow can you manual setup "hddtemp" to detect external drive temperature?18:28
sethkminus198, you can look in xorg.conf, for a module that has anything relevant to frame buffer.  I don't think you'll find it, though, because it would be reflected in the log.18:28

dajhorngodzirra: Use the `file` program to identify a file.19:03
pipegeekI've finally tracked down a weird issue that was causing x to crash while compiz-fusion was running and the system was under load.  Turns out there's a strange interaction specifically between yakuake and compiz fusion, such that if you run anything cpu-intensive from yakuake while c-f is running, x will likely die in a few minutes (or seconds!)19:03

Azzmodan\prybar, can you ping the XP machine?20:40
rorrahello, when I try to access http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/s/samba/samba_3.0.26a-1ubuntu2.1_i386.deb I got a permission error, where can I report this error?20:40
dgjonesisforinsects, its unlikely to make it into the Gutsy repo's because once its released its just bug fixes etc, it may appear in future versions, but you'd probably need to look on their website or in the ubuntu forums20:40
dgjonesrorra, see topic20:40
\prybarAzzmodan, through Hamachi I can browser all the shared folders, so I have a good connection20:40
nickrudrorra: see the topic20:40
Profanephobia\prybar, is this from outside or inside the network20:40
Azzmodan\prybar, and you're sure you have remote desktop enabled?20:41
Profanephobianm20:41
* nickrud considers making an auto replace for that20:41

Menaciehow come my azureus closes straight away?20:42
wiseleoYour call is important to us... if you feel otherwise, press 1...20:42
\prybarAzz, YesI have UltraVNC server installed and tested with another XP machine20:42
icangoogleitcongrats \prybar20:42
sfire_\prybar: works perfect using rdesktop ... thats how I access the windows machines.. I use RDP though20:42
lastelement0Profanephobia, 1280x80020:42
wiseleoPry - so are you using VNC or RDP?20:42
ProfanephobiaMenacie, start is from terminal using -v20:42
* nickrud got samba updated, wonders why others have issues20:42
icangoogleitbtw x11vnc does the same functionality in that you can join a live X session iirc20:42
ProfanephobiaMenacie, azureus -v20:42
icangoogleitbut you have to say the session like: ip.ip.ip.ip:020:43
icangoogleitso that would join X session on 0:020:43
Azzmodan\prybar, try "telnet <ip of xp machine> 3389"20:43

PinkFloydOh so that's what it is20:44
PinkFloydI just came in here to ask that20:44
\prybarI tested the XP machine through Hamachi using XP and Vista20:44
PinkFloydlol20:44
Profanephobialastelement0, back up your existing xorg.conf then try this http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/44789/20:44
wiseleopry - make sure Remote Desktop is enabled.20:44
wiseleoit listens on port 338920:45

wiseleoPrybar - Sorry, you are confused. XP remote desktop is NOT provided by VNC20:45
Lunar_LampPinkFloyd, same here - from what I can tell the samba updates have been blocked as the packages are broken.20:45
Profanephobiamhnoye1, see topic20:45
PinkFloydLunar_Lamp that's not good20:45
Shokamhnoye1 see header, known fault with samba update20:46
Lunar_LampPinkFloyd, don't quote me on that - that's just a guess really.20:46
mhnoye1Profanephobia: Thanks.20:46
Profanephobia\prybar, right click my computer then turn on remote access from there20:46
wiseleoPrybar - if you wish to enable native XP remote desktop (a Pro-only feature), right click on my computer, choose properties, click remote, click the "allow remote control" or whatever it's called.20:46
\prybarI do not want to use the XP remote desktop20:46

Lunar_LampPinkFloyd, according to the link in the topic the packages hae been stopped awaiting a fix of the patch they applied etc etc.  2hours ago they said it would be fixed soon.20:47
icangoogleitaragoja you need something called gnome-art20:47
PinkFloydLunar_Lamp ok20:47
wiseleoprybar - are you connecting to XP through a VNC client or through an RDP client? On what port is your UltraVNC server on XP?20:47

icangoogleitlook at that one aragoja20:48
wiseleoTerminal services client does not speak VNC20:48
Azzmodan\prybar, is there any setting in hamachi that might be blocking the 3389 port? Or maybe the windows firewall has the port limited to a specific subnet20:48

Markon1oops type i meant to say i had it working on 7.0420:49
aragojaIs there a Google Talk client for Ubuntu?20:49

DrCortexwhat21:21
akincerDrCortex: Give winefix a try21:21
DrCortex...21:21
bruenigfett2k, I assume you are using iwlwifi?21:21
DrCortexdoes linux have to be this complicated21:21
Dr_WillisDrCortex wine is not linux. :)21:21

akincerDrCorex: Try Google21:22
newbe2100I'm trieng to "sell" ubuntu to this owner but he demands ICQ and OFFICE21:22
Dr_WillisDrCortex the fact it dident make an icon.. well.. you could always go make an icon for it. Or a script that launches whtever it is you want. Its also possible that your menus just need to get refreshed.21:22
bruenigDrCortex, wine only runs exes actually21:22
akincerhang on . . .21:22
nickrudnewbe2100: if he requires office, give him microsoft, it's the only way21:22
akincerDrCortex: http://linux.softpedia.com/get/Utilities/Winefix-31532.shtml21:22

erUSULnewbe2100: do not think so...21:24

Dr_Willisata4ix looks like you may not have the framebuffer enabled.21:44
jshriverJordiGH: doesnt k3b require you to premaster iso's with mkisofs beforehand?  I like nero because it build the iso fs as it's burning. Can make a DVD in about 15 minutes21:45
icangoogleitmeheren never tried21:45
icangoogleitbut i believe probably so21:45
ata4ixDr_Willis, how i can enable them?21:45
icangoogleitgoogle is your friend.21:45
Dr_Willisata4ix i always disable the framebuffer anyway. I hate it. :)21:45

DaveRMI am having a problem with google earth servers for the last 2 days. I'm using 7.10/64bit. Any one else with the problem?21:45
Dr_Willisata4ix  i thoght i was enabled by default. It may depend on your video card.21:45
jshriverlast I checked k3b would make the iso's for you,but it still used mkisofs to generate the image in /tmp first21:45
ata4ixhm21:45
JordiGHjshriver: You want to burn some files with k3b, you select (click and drag), you click the burning disc icon, and that's all.21:46
ata4ixati x160021:46
jshriverso you had to have k3d master the iso first, then burn it. instead of burn on the fly21:46

jordanHello - I have a machine running an ubuntu / mythtv media center, and I wanted to put my older Ati x850xt in there.  I did so, and plugged my HDTV in (HDMI - DVI cable).  Now the TV doesnt show any picture, just flashes of text on bootup (POST, not UBUNTU).  The VGA port works fine, however.  What can I do/try?22:09
nickrudnikosapi: oh, you even ssh, you junkie ;)22:09
friedrichIf you don't worry to lose your data22:09
cafuegoIf you can at all manage, do not use bios raid. Linux sw raid is a far better idea.22:10
Xklarkcafuego: how can i set it up without apt-get?22:10

rdpbi hv read it all of this22:11
cafuegofriedrich: No, the best raid is *expensive* hardware raid with a large battery backed cache. bios raid is worse than sw raid in pretty much all cases.22:11
TD-Linuxconfigure the driver to use the other port as primary22:11
TD-Linuxgoogle how to do that22:11

cafuegofriedrich: Linux md raid (swraid) is handled in-kernel, has no such bottleneck and is likely to be 1) far faster and 2) can be moved to any other machine without needing an identical bios raid chip.22:14
rdpbso i have to decite if i will be with kubuntu and windows without raid or only with windows and raid22:14
friedrichcafuego, If I have server I'd prefer hardware solution.22:15

nickrudit's there, under the name samba. you would change your /etc/apt/sources.list to use mirrors.kernel.com rather than archives.ubuntu.com22:17

nsteevesnickrud: kernel.org tends to be really fast.  thanks for the tip, I didn't know that there was a kernel.org mirror22:18
kazol2cafuego: It did not break X, but it made the keyboard unresponsive and hanged when the system turned off. When it booted it could not load GUI settings for my profile but still did show GUI (though it lacked effects).22:18
TD-Linuxxivanari, you can change the dpi of your monitor22:18
jimjamTriplee23: System > Administration > System Monitor. Then the Processes tab22:18
cafuegordpb: fakeraid = raid via closed source software in raid bios.22:18
xivanariwhat do i change it to TD-Linux22:19
Henkierdpb, real raid is done in hardware with expensive hardware22:19
