| ubotu | inversekinetix: KDE (http://kde.org) is the !desktop environment used natively in !Kubuntu. To install from Ubuntu: « sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop », or see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingKDE . Latest KDE version is 3.5.8 for Gutsy and Feisty, 3.5.6 for Edgy, and 3.5.5 for Dapper. See http://kubuntu.org for more information. | 00:01 |
| digitalangel | !Grub | 00:01 |
| ubotu | grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto | 00:01 |
| ganjist | yeah . because creative had some parts developed in south africa under apartheid regime | 00:01 |
| sushko | digitalangel: it shows color-coded list of files in directory | 00:01 |
| Dr_willis | david_, ive had NO issues with my creative audigy cards. | 00:01 |
| digitalangel | sushko: yes count them | 00:01 |
| ganjist | you need the creative-mandela patch | 00:01 |
| Dr_willis | david_, now the x-fi cards are another story | 00:01 |
| digitalangel | sushko: I have a feeling that when you did the new install you over wrote your old kernel | 00:02 |
| m0 | hello: I am having problems pressing update in synaptic | 00:02 |
| wolfprint | ok that didnt do me any good - so - does anyone know what file would be similiar to that of a conkyrc file for customizing the desktops look and feel also any sites that might have better help/tutorial then ubuntu (I have v.7.10 - gutsy) | 00:02 |
| sushko | digitalangel: there are 30 | 00:02 |
| m0 | It is saying 403 Forbidden in synapitics update: http://pastebin.ca/777775 | 00:02 |
| nickrud | pwnt-: it appears that vlc doesn't play quicktime, see http://www.videolan.org/vlc/features.html | 00:02 |
| digitalangel | alright now do cd boot | 00:02 |
| m0 | CAn anyone let me know what is wrong please? | 00:02 |
| andi5 | m0: see the topic | 00:02 |
| digitalangel | sushko: do cd boot and then ls and tell me how many of those you have | 00:02 |
| inversekinetix | I think Ill leave KDE alone | 00:02 |
| maxb | pike_: Not as far as I can see. Do you have some specific options in mind? | 00:03 |
| m0 | ahh | 00:03 |
| sushko | digitalangel: yes that is what I did | 00:03 |
| digitalangel | inversekinetix: KDE is a desktop interface similiar to gnome | 00:03 |
| nickrud | pwnt-: erm, never mind, it is listed. But I get the same no video text | 00:03 |
| mosibfu | wow that fixed it instantly, massive thnx :D | 00:03 |

| === ForeverZero is now known as sea4ever | ||
| m0 | is the latest ubuntu: gutsy ? | 00:03 |
| m0 | Just so everyone knows what is happening: Gutsy and Feisty packages are ok and can be downloaded without problem. Edgy and Dapper packages have been disabled due to a regression. Updated packages for Dapper and Edgy will be provided soon. | 00:03 |
| digitalangel | sushko: alright what version of ubuntu did you install feisty gutsy or breezy | 00:03 |
| wolfprint | raranp no can not find it any help wpuld be appreciated | 00:03 |
| mosibfu | m0: yes | 00:03 |
| digitalangel | m0: yes | 00:04 |
| andi5 | m0: the latest stable, indeed | 00:04 |
| menko | mosibfu: cool | 00:04 |
| sushko | Gutsy | 00:04 |
| m0 | But I do have gutsy and the samba error is happening | 00:04 |
| raranp | one sec | 00:04 |
| mosibfu | menko: all i needed was to move the "sessions" file from .gnome2 ;) and it rebuilt itself | 00:04 |
| clarezoe | could you give me a moment to tell me how to save the channels in Xchat? | 00:04 |
| zeno | pike_: any ideas? | 00:04 |

| isforinsects_ | Hrrm | 00:04 |
| Triplee23 | stroyan: How kan I check to see that procps.sh is run during boot? | 00:04 |
| isforinsects_ | I think that backuppc didn't install an admin user | 00:04 |
| digitalangel | sushko: alright here we go. do sudo nano menu.lst | 00:04 |
| m0 | IT doesn't say how to disable samba from updates :/ | 00:04 |
| inversekinetix | digitalangel: Im looking at the link and it seems that it will install loads of new stuff. i want to be able to use the Gnome setup I have now as well, can I switch between them on the sessions menu at login like i can with xfce and gnome | 00:05 |
| raranp | wolf, did you already do this: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/conky-a-light-weight-system-monitor-for-ubuntu-linux-systems.html | 00:05 |
| isforinsects_ | So I have passwords saved for the backuppc user, but I don't have a user that is acceptable | 00:05 |
| pike_ | maxb: sorry not too famliar with it ive only printed from command line a few times. maybe install links2 and links2 -g localhost:631 ? ;-p | 00:05 |
| digitalangel | inversekinetix: absolutly | 00:05 |
| m0 | Annother question: How do I install TCL | 00:05 |
| Dr_willis | took me some time to get conky set just how i like it. :) The conly homepage has loads of examples | 00:05 |
| wolfprint | doing it now | 00:05 |
| andi5 | Triplee23: sudo find . -name '*procps.sh* | 00:05 |
| inversekinetix | digitalangel: Iit wont intefere with or bork anything thats already on here will it? | 00:05 |
| blueeyesmike | when I updated the linux-restricted-modules-2.6.22-14-generic encounters a segfault and can't finish installing so every time I install something now I get a message about it. Any way to fix this? anyone? | 00:05 |
| andi5 | Triplee23: sorry, replace the dot by /etc, please :) | 00:05 |
| zeno | m0: apt-get install tcl | 00:06 |
| maxb | pike_: Thanks though. But I'm trying to set up a script to configure printers on multiple machines | 00:06 |
| digitalangel | inversekinetix: nope it will act just like another session, there may be a few conflicts but in the end it should be just fine | 00:06 |
| m0 | zeno: http://pastebin.ca/777778 there is no such thing as tcl | 00:06 |
| digitalangel | inversekinetix: they actually work realyl well together | 00:06 |
| inversekinetix | digitalangel: what kind of conflicts? | 00:06 |
| nickrud | m0: tcl8.4 is the package name | 00:06 |
| andi5 | does anyone still actively code against tcl? | 00:06 |
| sushko | digitalangel: it is empty | 00:06 |
| Triplee23 | andi5: no result | 00:06 |
| digitalangel | inversekinetix: nothing serious maybe a file here or there but it won't mess anything up | 00:06 |
| inversekinetix | ok thanks | 00:07 |
| m0 | nickrud: thanks, let me try it out | 00:07 |
| digitalangel | sushko: sorry line didn't send | 00:07 |
| andi5 | Triplee23: sudo find /etc -name '*procps.sh*' should give you at least one file, but well :) | 00:07 |
| buttercups | clarezoe, ctrl+s, Ubuntu servers >edit | 00:07 |
| nickrud | andi5: probably, for some archaic mini computer somewhere ;) | 00:07 |
| Dr_willis | andi5, i imagine theres a lot of people using it :) at one time it was the big-scripting thing. But i havent seen anything new mentioned abouit it in ages. :) | 00:07 |
| digitalangel | do ctrl+x don't save then cd grub and do sudo nano menu.lst | 00:07 |
| Dr_willis | andi5, of course I still have REXX scripts laying around. | 00:07 |
| === Fire is now known as Campfire1 | ||
| wolfprint | raranp, thanks I think thats all the info I need big help | 00:08 |
| andi5 | Dr_willis: hehe | 00:08 |
| Triplee23 | andi5: I know the file exists, but how can I verify that it has been run during startup? | 00:08 |
| digitalangel | inversekinetix: no it will be fine, in fact I do that myself with gnome and kde, their quite compatable. No worries on this one | 00:08 |
| raranp | cool, it worked for me | 00:08 |
| * nickrud adds 20 years to Dr_willis | 00:08 | |
| zeno | pike_: I'm fairly certain that I just need to manually tell grub to write itself to the appropriate device, but I haven't been able to find out how to do that in this case | 00:08 |
| sushko | digitalangel: ok it shows the entries | 00:08 |
| digitalangel | sushko: now you see how the entries are formatted right? | 00:08 |
| m0 | nickrud: it says it is installed but I am still getting this error http://pastebin.ca/777778 | 00:08 |
| maxb | Oh. lpstat... which I found by giving up on the cups administrator's manual and looking at the cup users manual | 00:08 |
| andi5 | Triplee23: if it is in rcS.d or rc${i}.d, where $i is less than or equal to the number specified in /etc/inittab as default runlevel, and it is names S17procps.sh, the it is run | 00:09 |
| pike_ | zeno: well basically you can boot to livecd and then sudo grub then root (hd0,0) then setup (hd0) the first command tells grub where to look for the files on hd the second tells it where to write to hd0 is the mbr for hda | 00:09 |
| zeno | yes, but I'm not booting from hda | 00:09 |
| void2259 | hello | 00:09 |
| zeno | it's doing that for me :P | 00:09 |
| andi5 | hi void2259 :-D | 00:09 |
| darkblueB | Hello Happy Ubuntu People - I have just copied a boot partition from one internal drive to another with the Partition Editor from Live CD. I checked 'boot' in Manage Fags. How do I finish off the job and make it bootable? | 00:09 |
| nickrud | m0: install tcl8.4-dev ,it has the headers | 00:10 |
| zeno | pike_: I need to install it to sdb | 00:10 |
| darkblueB | s/Flags/Fags/ | 00:10 |
| pike_ | zeno: bear in mind grub starts counting on 0 not 1 so hda is hd0 and hd1,1 is hdb2 | 00:10 |
| inversekinetix | digitalangel: its downloaded and alm,ost installed now, no turmning back i guess | 00:10 |
| void2259 | any word on the no-suspend glitch? | 00:10 |
| digitalangel | inversekinetix: I promise you, you will be fine 8) | 00:10 |
| darkblueB | something about Grub? | 00:10 |
| zeno | pike_: hd1,1 still works for the SATA drives? | 00:10 |
| inversekinetix | will i have reinstall the restricted drivers and codecs | 00:10 |
| pike_ | zeno: hmm.. possibly | 00:10 |
| pike_ | zeno: dunno | 00:11 |
| digitalangel | sushko: what your going to be doing is adding an entry mimicing the others using your ubuntu kernel | 00:11 |
| Triplee23 | andi5: Ok, I know that procps.sh is run, but the value in it is not saved. Any ideas? | 00:11 |
| mosibfu | zeno: ill check my grub i only have s-ata | 00:11 |
| andi5 | void2259: the no-suspend glitch? ... | 00:11 |
| void2259 | I can't suspend or hibernate | 00:11 |
| zeno | mosibfu: thanks | 00:11 |
| sushko | digitalangel: okay I see them | 00:11 |
| digitalangel | sushko: use the other file names as a guide and you will know which one it is by it not being on the list | 00:11 |
| void2259 | suspend just comes back immidiatly and asks for password | 00:12 |
| darkblueB | these are s-ata.. Is there some way to install grub alone? | 00:12 |
| inversekinetix | does compiz work with KDE? | 00:12 |
| m0 | nickrud: excellent it worked, thanks | 00:12 |
| void2259 | hibernate crashes | 00:12 |
| digitalangel | sushko: thenn add it and go | 00:12 |
| blueeyesmike | problem: When I updated the linux-restricted-modules-2.6.22-14-generic encounters a segmentation fault and can't finish installing so every time I install something now I get a message about it. Any way to fix this please? | 00:12 |
| digitalangel | inversekinetix: yup 8) Ubuntu Ultimate does teh work for you 8) | 00:12 |
| darkblueB | when I tried to boot from the disk, only the blinking underline shows | 00:12 |
| darkblueB | the original boots fine | 00:12 |
| mosibfu | zeno: root(hd0,2) so yes, sata drives are just hd1,1 etc.. | 00:12 |
| andi5 | void2259: welcome to reality... same for me, please ask someone with good hardware :) | 00:12 |
| void2259 | anybody with good hardware in here? | 00:12 |
| nickrud | blueeyesmike: could you put the output of sudo apt-get -f install on paste.ubuntu-nl.org | 00:12 |
| inversekinetix | do you know any other desktops that are simple like xfce? something like an old amiga > | 00:13 |
| zeno | mosibfu: excellent, thanks - I was trying sd1, that explains it | 00:13 |
| nickrud | inversekinetix: try gnustep | 00:13 |
| sushko | >use the other file names as a guide and you will know which one it is by it not being on the list | 00:13 |
| sushko | if its not on the list how am I supposed to know what it is? :S | 00:13 |
| blueeyesmike | nickrud: sure 1 second, thanks | 00:13 |
| mosibfu | zeno: yw, just returning the favour to the community | 00:13 |
| andi5 | Triplee23: ahm.... what "value in it"? | 00:13 |
| Dr_willis | inversekinetix, theres 'window managers' then theres the full 'desktops' :) | 00:13 |
| Dr_willis | inversekinetix, thers some amiga-lookalike - window managers.. but not that useable. | 00:13 |
| zeno | mosibfu: argh - if this were LILO I'd be ok... | 00:14 |
| inversekinetix | Dr_willis: what are gnome kde and xfce? | 00:14 |
| Dr_willis | inversekinetix, Thers a few sites that compare a lot of the different ones. | 00:14 |
| digitalangel | sushko: pen and paper, write down what's infront of you then compare it to the files in /boot | 00:14 |
| Dr_willis | inversekinetix, those are 'desktops' they have window manager + extra tools+ filemanager | 00:14 |
| void2259 | Anybody know how to get suspend working? | 00:14 |
| zeno | mosibfu: sudo grub --boot-drive=hd1,0 | 00:14 |
| Dr_willis | inversekinetix, for example 'icewm' is a window manager. it dosent really come with many extra tools, and no filemanager. | 00:15 |
| nickrud | void2259: yes, with a sledge hammer | 00:15 |
| Triplee23 | andi5: procps.sh points to sysctl.conf with a value concerning igmp_max_memberships. This value is not added to /proc/sys/net/ipv4/igmp_max_memberships as I want and I don't unerstand why. | 00:15 |
| zeno | mosibfu: find /boot/grub/menu.lst == Error 15: File not found | 00:15 |
| inversekinetix | Dr_willis: and cpmpiz is just a window manager? | 00:15 |
| snkmad | !paste | 00:15 |

| blueeyesmike | nickrud: it says i'm spamming and i should enable javascript, but it is enabled? | 00:15 |
| zeno | but if I mount it, it is there | 00:15 |
| Dr_willis | inversekinetix, think 'legos' :) all the lego-software bigs form toghether to form a bigger package. | 00:15 |
| menko | hi, can someone confirm for me if there is an unofficial way to use the live cd to ugrade from 7.04 to 7.10? | 00:15 |
| nickrud | blueeyesmike: erm, odd. Try pastebin.ca | 00:15 |
| mosibfu | zeno: sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst shuld do the trick | 00:15 |
| Dr_willis | inversekinetix, tecknicially yes. but its a bit of a special case. | 00:15 |
| andi5 | Triplee23: may you pastebin your sysctl.conf, please? | 00:15 |
| snkmad | im having problems updating smb libs using update manager: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/44824/ | 00:16 |

| zeno | mosibfu: what should I edit it to? | 00:16 |
| Triplee23 | andi5: could you help me, how do I pastebin? | 00:16 |

| nickrud | blueeyesmike: you might run into an issue during the uninstall, that's why I'm uncertain. It would be fixable, however | 00:22 |
| raranp | kazol2, if you are open you should try wep (hex) with a blank password | 00:22 |
| haruspexed | it says error with ubuntu feisty main | 00:22 |

| blueeyesmike | nickrud: it installed fine now, so uninstall it? | 00:23 |

| chronographer | search google, you lazy person =) | 00:24 |
| andi5 | Triplee23: cool... that is pretty unambiguous :-) | 00:24 |
| mosibfu | zeno: grub-install /dev/sda that should do the trick | 00:24 |
| blahblahx | chronographer: is there any specific file that decides whats installed to the HD? | 00:24 |
| marckie | !avant-windows-navigator | 00:24 |

| blueeyesmike | nickrud: when uninstally it removes package linux, will I be able to reboot | 00:25 |
| Shadix | Grrrr.... blankscreen | 00:25 |
| chronographer | danny: i found one... I need to remember what its called though... hold on | 00:25 |
| mosibfu | danny: kiba-dock is awsome, google for a tutorial how to get it working under gutsy | 00:25 |
| nickrud | blueeyesmike: linux-image , that package? | 00:25 |
| chronographer | kiba-dock | 00:25 |
| danny | ok ty! | 00:25 |
| mosibfu | danny: you can also find it on youtube to see what and how | 00:25 |
| danny | ok | 00:25 |
| andi5 | Triplee23: only bad ones.... like changing the loading order (the two-digit numbers after S and 100-x before K in rcx.d) | 00:25 |
| danny | thanls | 00:25 |
| danny | thanks | 00:25 |
| blueeyesmike | nickrud: no just 'linux' and other restricted modules packages | 00:25 |
| Dr_willis | theres that awn dock. But it had some issues for me. | 00:25 |

| ata4ix | please help... i try to set for my grub vga=791 --> 1024x768 16bit(5:6:5), but monitor is answer "not supported" | 00:26 |
| kazol2 | raranp: Still doesn't work. | 00:26 |
| ata4ix | any ideas? | 00:26 |

| zeno | mosibfu: sudo grub-install /dev/sdb --root-directory=. (with my /boot partition mounted under $PWD) | 00:26 |
| kazol2 | raranp: Should I try securing my network or something? | 00:26 |
| raranp | kazol2: the system did see the ssid without you having to put it in manually? | 00:26 |
| andi5 | ata4ix: your bios and video card need to support these modes... i thought that would not be a problem | 00:27 |
| mosibfu | zeno: basically thesame ;) | 00:27 |
| chronographer | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=554127 <---- kiba-dock | 00:27 |
| andi5 | Triplee23: yes... but ignore me, i am a noob :) | 00:27 |
| ata4ix | andi5, i dont undertand | 00:27 |
| kazol2 | raranp: It did display it with signal strength info. | 00:27 |
| ata4ix | andi5, whta does it mena | 00:27 |
| zeno | mosibfu: yeah, it was the combination I needed - I'd tried both of those separately before :P | 00:27 |
| ata4ix | mean | 00:27 |
| raranp | good! | 00:27 |

| raranp | kazol2: if you ifconfig does it have an ip? | 00:28 |
| ata4ix | but bios... idono | 00:28 |
| mosibfu | alphin: that update is "cancelled" try in 24 hours ;) | 00:28 |
| DRtuxthepenguin | why is gobuntu free and ubuntu is not free | 00:28 |
| andi5 | ata4ix: iirc that totally depends on the font you load later on | 00:28 |
| mosibfu | zeno: it was my pleasure | 00:28 |
| ata4ix | hm | 00:28 |
| ata4ix | andi5, font is default | 00:28 |
| blueeyesmike | nickrud: sorry internet disconnected, i'll be right to reboot? | 00:28 |
| kazol2 | raranp: I have configured a static IP for the computer, DNS servers, and a default gateway (firewall). | 00:28 |
| andi5 | 'k | 00:28 |
| ata4ix | wich installed in kubuntu 7.10 | 00:28 |
| nickrud | DRtuxthepenguin: gnubuntu is free in the sense that it does not include anything that the source isn't available for | 00:29 |
| alphin | nickrud, and mosibfu thanks | 00:29 |
| nickrud | blueeyesmike: as long as you didn't uninstall linux-image-2.6.22-14-generic, you'll be fine | 00:29 |
| alphin | it is a samba update | 00:29 |
| raranp | kazol2: can you ping your own ip? how about the dns server or default gateway ip? | 00:29 |
| blueeyesmike | excellent, see you in a minute then | 00:29 |
| mikedep333 | hi, I am trying to get my hauppauge pvr-150 (IVTV device) working, how do I get the firmware? | 00:29 |
| mosibfu | alphin: indeed, i have it here aswell, it will be fixed soon ;) | 00:29 |
| nickrud | alphin: read back, there was an explanation posted to yoi | 00:29 |
| mikedep333 | previous versions of ubuntu had the package ivtv-firmware | 00:29 |
| alphin | yes nickrud | 00:29 |
| ata4ix | andi5, do you have some ideas how to fix this? :( | 00:30 |
| kazol2 | rarnp: I did not try my own IP, but it could not ping anything, including LAN and WAN. | 00:30 |
| alphin | that's why I said thanks ;) | 00:30 |
| mikedep333 | but I don't see that know, even with all the repos enabled | 00:30 |
| andi5 | ata4ix: yes, ignore the few seconds unless you actively work on the console | 00:30 |
| mosibfu | mikedep333 you might want to add the (correct) feisty repo, thats how i found beryl in gutsy | 00:30 |
| mikedep333 | !help ivtv | 00:30 |
| ata4ix | andi5, what? | 00:30 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about help ivtv - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 00:30 |
| kazol2 | rarnp: And I did check advanced stats and there were packets exchanged from the WAP. | 00:30 |
| kazol2 | rarnp: Any ideas? | 00:31 |
| raranp | kazol2: what ip are you using on the card? what one are you on this irc with? | 00:31 |
| mikedep333 | moosibfu: It was in the main official ubuntu repo I believe | 00:31 |
| andi5 | ata4ix: well, i have no clue why your bios/graphics card combo does not support these vesa modes... | 00:31 |
| raranp | kazol2, plenty of ideas, and it looks like we are fairly close | 00:31 |
| chronographer | DR tux: firefox has patented artwork. mp3 are patented, you need to pay a license to use them in your software, virtualbox is only partly open source etc... Debian is 'free' Ubuntu has some 'proprietry' components, GObuntu is like debian, is my iunderstanding | 00:31 |
| zeno | mosibfu: argh, still no dice | 00:31 |
| kazol2 | raranp: 192.168.1.x; mine is on a separate subnet. | 00:31 |
| mosibfu | mikedep333: yes but gutsy has other repos with other software, so u will need to get it from an old repo | 00:31 |
| ata4ix | andi5, 10x... i try to solve this | 00:31 |
| mikedep333 | yeah | 00:31 |
| kazol2 | raranp: But I do have access to a laptop on the .1.x subnet. | 00:32 |
| ata4ix | :) | 00:32 |
| zeno | mosibfu: grub> find /boot/grub/menu.lst == Error 15: File not found | 00:32 |
| andi5 | mosibfu: does not ubuntu install and activate restricted drivers by default? | 00:32 |
| raranp | kazol2: so you have a working laptop on the 192.168.1.x subnet, what is its dg .1? | 00:32 |
| zeno | mosibfu: in another half-hour I'm putting LILO on this drive, deprecated or not :P | 00:32 |
| kazol2 | raranp: dg .1? | 00:33 |
| raranp | default gateway address | 00:33 |
| kazol2 | raranp: 192.168.1.254 | 00:33 |
| dooglus | nickrud: doesn't ubuntu gutsy come with the uvc kernel stuff pre-built? | 00:33 |
| raranp | k | 00:33 |
| raranp | kazol2: can you ping .254 from that laptop? some firewalls will not respond | 00:33 |
| nickrud | dooglus: I see /lib/modules/2.6.22-14-generic/ubuntu/media/usbvideo/uvcvideo.ko , but I remember that page saying they used the svn checkout | 00:34 |
| danny | i need help ........ when i try to enable desktop effects it says this: The Composite extension is not available | 00:34 |
| blueeyesmik1 | nickrud: no luck just reinstalled and got the same Segmentation fault | 00:34 |
| mosibfu | zeno: grub-install --root-directory=/boot /dev/sdb | 00:34 |
| kazol2 | raranp: yes | 00:34 |
| === preaction__ is now known as preaction | ||
| nickrud | blueeyesmik1: ok, try removing it again, then sudo aptitude reinstall linux-image-2.6.22-generic | 00:35 |
| zeno | mosibfu: I don't think I can specify --root-directory=/boot because that will be the /boot partition from the LiveCD, no? | 00:35 |
| raranp | kazol2: ok, so both are on the same SSID, with a 192.168.1.x ip, 255.255.255.0 mask and a dg of .254, right? | 00:35 |
| LiquidHelium | Hey, can any of you help me? | 00:35 |
| danny | Compiz-fusion is not working on my laptop it says: The Composite extension is not available i have an Amd turion 64x2 processor | 00:35 |
| andi5 | zeno: may i ask what the issue is about? | 00:35 |
| raranp | kazol2: oh, the other lappy is windows? | 00:35 |
| danbhfive | blueeyesmik1: did you run sudo apt-get clean ? | 00:36 |
| Madpilot | ubotu, ask | LiquidHelium | 00:36 |
| ubotu | LiquidHelium: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :) | 00:36 |
| blueeyesmik1 | danbhfive: yes | 00:36 |
| LiquidHelium | I have just today installed ubuntu 7.10 Desktop amd64. | 00:36 |
| LiquidHelium | I have a dell dimension C521 with an added gig of ram. | 00:36 |
| LiquidHelium | I dual boot ubuntu with vista. | 00:36 |
| LiquidHelium | I have a Raptor Gaming M2 mouse and the default dell keyboard. | 00:36 |
| LiquidHelium | When I start ubuntu all is fine, until about 10 minutes in my mouse will just stop, it wont move and no buttons work, if I unplug it and plug it in the Lazar, or whatever its called at the bottom of the mouse goes off, as to say its not plugged in. I tried installing the driver CD that came with the mouse, but its all .exe | 00:36 |
| LiquidHelium | Also, Sometimes it thinks I'm holding down the backspace button constantly. | 00:36 |
| kazol2 | raranp: yes; yes. | 00:36 |
| LiquidHelium | Any help is greatly appreciated, thank you | 00:36 |
| blueeyesmik1 | nickrud: you mean sudo aptitude reinstall linux-image-2.6.22-14-generic right? | 00:36 |
| nickrud | blueeyesmik1: yes, you'll probably need to remove the restricted again first | 00:37 |
| inversekinetix | how do I install apps in KDE? | 00:37 |
| zeno | andi5: older system, used to have fedora 3 on it, so grub was already installed... has 3 drives, one PATA two SATA. Upgrading to ubuntu 7.10, now when I boot it gives me a grub prompt and if I try `find /boot/grub/menu.lst` or similar, I get Error 15: File not found | 00:37 |
| Shadix | After install I get a blankscreen when booting | 00:37 |
| raranp | kazol2: so windows sees it as a open wireless, and ubuntu has the ssid, wep(hex) and a blank where the password should be | 00:37 |
| kazol2 | raranp: yes | 00:37 |
| ata4ix | andi5, i need to have framebuffer support in my linux core nj fctivate the resolutions? or kubuntu 7.10 already have this? | 00:37 |
| raranp | kazol2: and roaming unchecked | 00:37 |
| Shadix | I can go to recovery and startx | 00:37 |
| kazol2 | raranp: Weird thing is there are 100s of packets transmitted/received and <100KiB transferred. | 00:37 |
| ata4ix | how to check? | 00:37 |
| kazol2 | raranp: yes | 00:38 |
| zeno | andi5: I think the complication comes from the fact that I'm not using the PATA drive as my boot device | 00:38 |
| mosibfu | zeno: you have a point there, its made for having a seperate partition for /boot i figured it just might fool grub into booting the right one | 00:38 |
| andi5 | zeno: you probably know the "root" command on the grub shell, do not you? | 00:38 |
| raranp | gotta be close | 00:38 |
| Shadix | anyone have any ideas | 00:38 |
| raranp | kazol2: if you ping from a terminal, does 254 respond or timeout? | 00:38 |
| blueeyesmik1 | nickrud: i did that and did a clean | 00:38 |
| soulwarp | is anyone having issues with the security update> | 00:38 |
| zeno | andi5: I'm more experienced with manually configuring LILO, I'm afraid - it's been a while since stuff hasn't just automatically worked and I've gotten lazy :P | 00:38 |
| R_enwiki | hey more_wimt | 00:39 |
| raranp | soulwarp: smb/samba? yep | 00:39 |

| zeno | root /dev/sdb5 right? | 00:39 |
| LiquidHelium | When I start ubuntu all is fine, until about 10 minutes in my mouse will just stop, it wont move and no buttons work, if I unplug it and plug it in the Lazar, or whatever its called at the bottom of the mouse goes off, as to say its not plugged in. I tried installing the driver CD that came with the mouse, but its all .exe Can you help? | 00:39 |
| mosibfu | zeno: you might want to read that, if you have the correct map it could save some problems | 00:39 |
| nickrud | blueeyesmik1: ok, with the kernel reinstalled, try installing linux-generic (will set you up standard) and see if restricted goes in. If it does, good. If not, I'm lost. Looking at ubuntu bugs right now | 00:39 |

| raranp | soulwarp: it's the talk of the town tonight | 00:40 |
| mosibfu | RenOS: i have good experience, however, if i want to run SLI, i need to run SFR instead of AFR else it will glitch | 00:40 |
| raranp | kazol2: at least now we are up to whats wrong | 00:40 |
| RenOS | mosibfu, no, no SLI, just the Beryl. | 00:40 |
| RenOS | mosibfu, you have a few minutes for a chat? | 00:40 |
| mosibfu | RenOS: beryl seems to run fine, i herd however that if you open alot of windows video ram could get full | 00:40 |
| kazol2 | raranp: Do you think I should try securing the network or something? | 00:41 |
| mosibfu | RenOS: have all time in the world here | 00:41 |

| ruthbuzzard | how do I make frostwire launch xmms instead of the default player in gusty? | 00:41 |
| dooglus | nickrud: what happens in a case like this, where ubuntu is shipping broken kernel modules? is there a bug tracker that ubuntu developers use? I've seen launchpad, but it seems to be only users there. | 00:41 |
| zeno | andi5: maybe? :) | 00:41 |
| blueeyesmik1 | nickrud: it says I need a restart, should i do that before apt-get install linux-generic? | 00:42 |
| Shadix | what other ubuntu chans are there? | 00:42 |
| andi5 | zeno: maybe rather /dev/sda == (hd0) and /dev/sda2 == (hd0,1) | 00:42 |

| Shadix | I mean on a normal boot nothing displays and my monitor goes to sleep. but /etc/init.d/gdm start flashes something then back to commandline | 00:46 |
| zeno | danny: do you have direct rendering working, or are you using the vesa driver? | 00:46 |
| RenOS | mosibfu, can I have composite with the nvidia drivers (from the nvidia site) ? | 00:46 |
| ruthbuzzard | opps i mean xmms $URL$ | 00:47 |
| andi5 | zeno: have you actually check the grub shell? | 00:47 |
| zeno | RenOS: yes | 00:47 |
| danny | im using an ATI accelerated graphics driver | 00:47 |
| mosibfu | RenOS yes, but you might aswell use the restricted drivers manager and enable them there, works better in ubunty | 00:47 |
| desertc | LiquidHelium: http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Advanced_Mouse | 00:47 |
| zeno | andi5: yeah - that's how I'm getting the file not found error | 00:47 |
| andi5 | zeno: oh, and what do you think exploded? ;-) there is no such thing you mentioned | 00:47 |
| LiquidHelium | desertc: Cheers | 00:47 |
| danny | zeno: im using an Ati accelerated graphics driver under restricted drivers | 00:47 |
| andi5 | zeno: file system? | 00:47 |
| blueeyesmike | nickrud: thankyou very much that seems to have done that trick | 00:47 |
| RenOS | zeno, xserver cannot handle both xgl and composite wthough | 00:47 |
| RenOS | any ideas? | 00:48 |
| raranp | kazol2: whats your win ver? xp, vista? | 00:48 |
| nickrud | blueeyesmike: cool, should have thought of the reinstall earlier. | 00:48 |
| zeno | andi5: /boot == ext2; everything else == /ext3 | 00:48 |
| b00 | O.O | 00:48 |
| RenOS | mosibfu, can I only add the nvidia-glx package? do I need the rest of the pacjages? | 00:48 |
| b00 | hello | 00:48 |
| lfelipel | hi, when i connect an usb device ubuntu doesn't creates a /dev/sd* file and i can't mount the device, how can i fix it? it has a relation with the starting bluetooth services bug? | 00:48 |
| BlankBlank | hello, I'm having problems updating samba & etc in the update manager (gutsy) 404 forbidden? | 00:48 |
| desertc | LiquidHelium: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InputDevices | 00:48 |

| andi5 | zeno: hm... does grub tab-completion show you all the correct partitions? | 00:48 |
| desertc | LiquidHelium: Did you get both links? | 00:48 |
| desertc | LiquidHelium: Check out the second one first | 00:48 |
| mosibfu | RenOS i have the _new package, it depends on what 3d card you use, but i have in my xorg.conf: Option "AllowGLXWithComposite""1" | 00:49 |
| andi5 | what is a sambabug? ... a musical animal? | 00:49 |
| fever84 | can someone look at my script i have made a mess off it | 00:49 |
| zeno | andi5: doing what? | 00:49 |
| BlankBlank | thank you | 00:49 |
| andi5 | zeno: type root (<TAB> | 00:49 |
| zeno | andi5: like type root [tab]? | 00:49 |
| Shadix | ack | 00:49 |
| RenOS | mosibfu, I have this as well but beryl complanis about: GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap | 00:49 |
| zeno | andi5: error 1: filename must be either an absolote pathname or blocklist | 00:49 |
| kazol2 | raranp: Vista | 00:50 |
| zeno | s/absolote/absolute/ | 00:50 |
| andi5 | zeno: unluckily i upgraded my grub installation and do not use grub1 anymore :( | 00:50 |
| fever84 | http://rafb.net/p/5aorIo97.html | 00:50 |
| zeno | andi5: well in about 15 minutes I'm going back to LILO :P | 00:50 |
| fever84 | can someone look at that please i think its the "then" part | 00:50 |
| fever84 | well i know it is lol | 00:51 |
| kazol2 | raranp: One thing I forgot to tell you, when I ping the LAN I get something like "destination not reacheable" or something like that (instead of usual timeout). | 00:51 |
| andi5 | zeno: what about root (hd<TAB> or (hd1,<TAB> ... | 00:51 |
| Shadix | if I'm logged in as root how do I get admin privlages | 00:51 |
| nickrud | ah, lilo is heaven | 00:51 |
| mosibfu | RenOS, i have posted my device section under http://pastebin.ca/777815 so you can compare it | 00:51 |
| raranp | kazol2: did you have to assign an IP to the windows box, or did it configure one for you when you booted it up? | 00:51 |
| akorn | Anybody know why i have emerald and libemeraldengine0 show up in my update manager, but i can't check them off to be upgraded? | 00:51 |
| LiENUS | is there a way to have ubuntu ask whether or not to launch each service at bootup? | 00:51 |
| LiquidHelium | desertc: Um, yeah, I dont understand any of that | 00:51 |
| andi5 | Shadix: root has all (almost) all privileges | 00:51 |
| LiquidHelium | desertc: :P | 00:51 |
| inversekinetix | hmm, kde wont run kxmame properly either, any ideas? | 00:51 |
| RenOS | mosibfu, ok thank you | 00:52 |
| LiENUS | like with fedora core where you push a button at a certain time | 00:52 |
| zeno | root hd<tab> == Error 11: unrecognized device string | 00:52 |
| DerangedDingo | Shadix: if you're logged in as root you have root priveleges | 00:52 |
| Shadix | well I can't seem to start my device manager | 00:52 |
| zeno | like it can't find any of my drives | 00:52 |
| Dr_willis | inversekinetix, i belive it needs the proper paths set. when i tried it last week. It was defaulting to the wrong locations | 00:52 |
| andi5 | nickrud: heaven, is that where all the fire and screams are? | 00:52 |
| kazol2 | raranp: Everything on my home network has static, manually configured IPs; I did not enable the DHCP service in the main server. | 00:52 |
| desertc | LiquidHelium: Next time buy a computer with Ubuntu pre-installed and supported. | 00:52 |
| nickrud | andi5: 7 steps, it's all it takes :) | 00:52 |
| inversekinetix | Dr_willis: I know, i have it set up properly, its just crashes all the time, | 00:52 |
| andi5 | *g* | 00:52 |
| LiquidHelium | desertc: :p | 00:53 |
| raranp | hm, is your firewall and WAP the same box? | 00:53 |
| LiENUS | is there a way to have ubuntu ask whether or not to launch each service at bootup? | 00:53 |
| Dr_willis | inversekinetix, that i did not notice. :) i just played a few games however. | 00:53 |
| Dr_willis | inversekinetix, the classics. pacman, digdug and so on. | 00:53 |
| Shadix | DerangedDingo: I can't boot normaly since all I get is a blankscreen and so in recovery I tried "startx". That | 00:53 |
| lfelipel | hi, when i connect an usb device ubuntu doesn't creates a /dev/sd* file and i can't mount the device, how can i fix it? | 00:53 |
| inversekinetix | yes, i have all of the mame releases | 00:53 |
| desertc | LiquidHelium: All I can do is point you to resources. Maybe someone else here will walk your through troubleshooting and configuration. | 00:53 |
| Shadix | got me to where I am now | 00:53 |
| kazol2 | raranp: No | 00:53 |
| andi5 | illovae: does dmesg print anything interesting? | 00:53 |
| inversekinetix | i have to use windows for mame and mess, just doesnt work in linux | 00:53 |
| nickrud | andi5: http://www.mailarchives.org/list/debian-user/msg/2005/04879 , what could be simpler | 00:53 |
| raranp | kazol2: can you ping the ip of the WAP from your linux box? | 00:53 |
| LiquidHelium | desertc: Ah, ok | 00:54 |
| LiquidHelium | desertc: oh well | 00:54 |
| danny | i need help getting compiz to work, it says this message when i go into the visual effects: The Composite extension is not available | 00:54 |
| danbhfive | LiquidHelium: have you tried using google? | 00:54 |
| raranp | kazol2: it's normal a misconfigured nic will tx packets, but it is not normal it receives them and is still broken! | 00:54 |
| kazol2 | raranp: I cannot ping anything from Ubuntu. | 00:54 |
| lfelipel | hi, when i connect an usb device ubuntu doesn't creates a /dev/sd* file and i can't mount the device, how can i fix it? | 00:54 |
| danbhfive | like google your mouse ubuntu | 00:54 |
| kazol2 | raranp: Yes, it receives packets perfectly. | 00:54 |
| mosibfu | danny: that is a problem with (some) ati cards, i have just 1 mate that has it working on ati, he is offline tho | 00:54 |
| andi5 | is danny a bot? .... danny: what about looking at /var/log/Xorg.0.log? | 00:54 |
| Dr_willis | inversekinetix, rember that kmame is just a front end to the actual mame binaries. | 00:55 |
| shea|up | mmm. has a copy-paste issue been brought up by anybody lately? | 00:55 |
| raranp | from the vista box, can it ping the linux box? | 00:55 |
| shea|up | whenever i paste, it's always: ŸŸ | 00:55 |
| danny | huh | 00:55 |
| inversekinetix | Dr_willis: yes, the back end is old and it wont accept the newest front end | 00:55 |
| desertc | shea|up: never heard of that | 00:55 |
| shea|up | yeah me neither :) | 00:55 |
| andi5 | shea|up: there are two copy&paste mechanisms: via selection (mouse) and via clipboard (ctrl+c, ctrl+v), iirc... which one do you mean? | 00:55 |
| Dr_willis | inversekinetix, seems to me it gets updates about every month. But whatever.. have fun. :) | 00:56 |
| shea|up | sorry, i mean by clipboard | 00:56 |
| LiquidHelium | desertc: Yes | 00:56 |
| mosibfu | danny: ati doesnt have any good linux drivers (yet) but ati will be making them open source, so wait a little and soon ull have better drivers wich will work | 00:56 |
| minerale | what is the name of the repository that holds codecs to play windows files? | 00:56 |
| andi5 | shea|up: within one application? | 00:56 |
| shea|up | mouse selection copy/paste does not work | 00:56 |
| shea|up | no, any application. | 00:56 |
| danbhfive | medibuntu | 00:56 |
| shea|up | (mind you, mouse copy/paste was working earlier) | 00:56 |
| lfelipel | hi, when i connect an usb device ubuntu doesn't creates a /dev/sd* file and i can't mount the device, how can i fix it? the only way that i can use my device is plugging it before powering on the computer :( | 00:56 |
| raranp | kazol2: the key index on one WAP I use was set to #2, it started working as soon as I set it to key index #1, I don't know if you see anything like that in dd-wrt | 00:56 |
| LiENUS | Is there a way to have ubuntu ask before starting each service at bootup? | 00:56 |
| andi5 | shea|up: huh? that is weird, really.... have you restarted X at least once? | 00:56 |
| Dr_willis | LiENUS, not really. | 00:56 |
| shea|up | yeah i did last night actually | 00:57 |
| shea|up | this seems to be since the last update, to the best of my knowledge | 00:57 |
| LiENUS | is there a way to do something like init=/bin/sh then? so i can get into the system | 00:57 |
| raranp | kazol2: windows worked fine on it with #2, that was the thing I was mentioning earlier | 00:57 |
| shea|up | i've been using ubuntu for about 2 years and i've never seen this before :\ | 00:57 |
| andi5 | LiENUS: sure, just append it to the kernel line in /boot/grub/menu.lst | 00:57 |
| Dr_willis | LiENUS, you could do that.. of course normally theres a rescue/recovery mode in the grub menus. | 00:57 |
| LiENUS | andatche, it causes it to hang during boot | 00:57 |
| minerale | !codecs | 00:57 |

| kazol2 | raranp: Believe it or not, google came up on the browser I opened 20 minutes ago-there is internet connectivity but it's *very* slow. | 00:57 |
| shea|up | oh well, i'll try to get some real data & put up a bug | 00:58 |
| kazol2 | raranp: I'll try rebooting and report the results back. | 00:58 |
| lfelipel | hi, when i connect an usb device ubuntu doesn't creates a /dev/sd* file and i can't mount the device, how can i fix it? | 00:58 |
| LiENUS | err andi5 init=/bin/sh in the kernel line causes ubuntu to hang during booting | 00:58 |
| jerry | i have a question about gimp | 00:58 |
| LiENUS | Dr_willis, recovery mode still launches the service which causes my monitor to go blank | 00:58 |
| raranp | kazol2: might want to try just a disable/enable | 00:58 |
| jerry | is there any updates coming out for gimp? | 00:58 |
| jerry | 2.4.1 | 00:58 |
| Dr_willis | LiENUS, could use a live cd. and edit the rc.d dirs i guess. | 00:58 |
| shea|up | i suppose while i'm talking -- has anyone noticed KDE apps redraw extremely slow? particularly kate or anything which uses a text buffer | 00:58 |
| andi5 | LiENUS: no, it stops after kernel loading.... you can start /sbin/init whenever you want | 00:58 |
| LiENUS | andi5, what? | 00:59 |
| shea|up | kate is really the only kde app I use, but i tested a few others for this reason | 00:59 |
| LiENUS | no it never gives me a prompt | 00:59 |
| LiENUS | Dr_willis, no cd drive on the system | 00:59 |
| shea|up | it was quite fast in 7.04, so, hrm | 00:59 |
| Dr_willis | init=/sbin/bash should not let ANY services load. | 00:59 |
| LiENUS | Dr_willis, you're right, it doesnt even let /bin/bash load | 00:59 |
| andi5 | LiENUS: oh... what do you mean by hang? do you see anything at all? | 00:59 |
| Dr_willis | Im thinking you are having deeper issues... | 00:59 |
| shea|up | dunno where to even begin debugging there :) i suppose i could see where an inordinate amount of time is being spent | 00:59 |
| LiENUS | andi5, i see the last line from the kernel and then nothing after a certain point | 01:00 |
| LiENUS | Dr_willis, boot up an ubuntu 7.10 system with init=/bin/bash in the kernel line | 01:00 |
| Dr_willis | you may want to disable the framebuffer als with the 'nofb' option | 01:00 |
| LiENUS | i tried disabling the frame buffer | 01:00 |
| andi5 | LiENUS: /bin/dash? | 01:00 |
| LiENUS | its the unsupported drivers | 01:00 |
| nickrud | kazol: try checking that /etc/hosts has the same hostname as /etc/hostname on the first line | 01:00 |
| LiENUS | i disabled the framebuffer with vga=normal as per the ubuntu wiki | 01:01 |
| Dr_willis | LiENUS, which unsupported drivers are you refering to? | 01:01 |
| bazyar | Hi Ubuntuers! | 01:01 |
| Malachi | About Samba, guys.... | 01:01 |
| * bazyar was just wondering about samba. | 01:01 | |
| nickrud | !sambabug | Malachi | 01:01 |
| Malachi | I know what the deal is, I read the notes.... | 01:01 |
| ubotu | Malachi: A defect has been identified in a recent security update and as a result the associated packages have been taken offline. Please disregard any 403 errors you may receive when trying to apply updates. They will disappear once this problem is resolved. | 01:01 |
| jerry | any news with GIMP 2.4.1? | 01:01 |
| Dr_willis | :) | 01:01 |
| Malachi | nickrud: Yeah, I know. | 01:01 |
| andi5 | shea|up: there used to be a kde app showing the live contents of clipboard and selection | 01:01 |
| nickrud | Malachi: ah, nm then :) | 01:02 |
| kazol2 | raranp: It seems to work now, thanks for the help. I still don't get why the delay occurred. | 01:02 |
| Malachi | But I was wondering if there that it was only Edgy and Dapper affected? | 01:02 |
| mosibfu | bayzar: 403, files were blocked, the update was not a good update, just leave it be it will be a fixed soon | 01:02 |
| LiENUS | Dr_willis, heck if i know it just says something to the effect of "starting unsupported drivers" then the system is gone | 01:02 |
| LiENUS | no display | 01:02 |
| shea|up | oh hey, i figured out my clipboard thing -- it's vbox. | 01:02 |
| nickrud | Malachi: no, all releases | 01:02 |
| Burlynn_ | Malachi: gutsy too | 01:02 |
| Malachi | nickrud: Oh, okay. | 01:02 |
| shea|up | i guess vbox hooks into it and holds it hostage | 01:02 |
| Malachi | Thanks. | 01:02 |
| bazyar | Mosibfu -I was trying to upgrade from 6.10 to 7.04 | 01:02 |
| LiENUS | still responds to ctrl+alt+del however | 01:02 |
| raranp | kazol2: voodoo, now you can start locking down your ssid's. have a good one. | 01:02 |
| Malachi | Thanks for satisfying my curiosity. | 01:02 |
| bazyar | So it was very confusing / disconcerting that the packages failed. | 01:02 |
| andi5 | LiENUS: what about the sysrq keys? | 01:03 |
| Malachi | Why don't they remove the packages from the update list? | 01:03 |
| shea|up | so yeah, if anyone complains about a broken clipboard, tell them to pause their vbox machine :| | 01:03 |
| Malachi | (not quite sure how that works) | 01:03 |
| LiENUS | andi5, its very difficult to try the sysrq keys without display | 01:03 |
| LiENUS | however it reboots fine with ctrl+alt+del | 01:03 |
| mosibfu | bayzar: it is kind of confusing isnt it, there was just an samba update, wich wasnt good, so they blocked it temporairy, so probarbly, that is the problem, i cannot access them aswell (7.10 tho) | 01:04 |
| shea|up | thanks for the help though andi5 | 01:04 |
| andi5 | shea|up: you are welcome | 01:04 |
| Ongaku | my sound takes a long time to turn down or up...anyone know what´s going on? itś integrated sigmatel (don´t laugh :P) | 01:04 |
| bazyar | mosibfu - well I guess I will just have to be patient, go to the Zappa Plays Zappa concert, and try again tomorrow. | 01:04 |
| bazyar | :) | 01:04 |
| desertc | A long time? | 01:04 |
| danny | how do i remove xorg.conf | 01:04 |
| Malachi | danny: Why? | 01:04 |
| Ongaku | danny: yeah why lol | 01:04 |
| bazyar | Thanks all | 01:04 |
| Ongaku | danny: do you just want to reconfigure it? | 01:04 |
| danny | yes | 01:04 |
| mosibfu | danny: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg | 01:05 |
| andi5 | LiENUS: what if you enter "shutdown -r now" in /bin/dash? | 01:05 |
| danny | how do i even launch xorg.conf | 01:05 |
| Ongaku | danny: type sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 01:05 |
| shea|up | brb. | 01:05 |
| LiENUS | andi5, how would i do that? | 01:05 |
| andi5 | LiENUS: well, use the thing with the many keys in front of you ;-) | 01:05 |
| LiENUS | do you know the nature of my problem? | 01:05 |
| Ongaku | my sound takes a long time to turn up and down...anyone know what´s up? it didn´t do that in feisty | 01:05 |
| danny | woah | 01:05 |
| andi5 | no, i read about some of the symptoms, though | 01:06 |
| LiENUS | ior are you just answering based on random bits of text you've read | 01:06 |
| desertc | What does it mean -- a long time? | 01:06 |
| crimsun | Ongaku: impossible to troubleshoot without additional information. | 01:06 |
| LiENUS | i dont get a prompt | 01:06 |
| zeno | andi5: no further ideas? :) | 01:06 |
| mosibfu | danny: if you just want to edit it: sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 01:06 |
| LiENUS | i get a blank screen when i try booting up | 01:06 |
| Ongaku | crimsun: itś integrated audio | 01:06 |
| LiENUS | if i could see to type in shutdown -r now | 01:06 |
| LiENUS | i wouldnt have a problem | 01:06 |
| andi5 | LiENUS: you said you did not see one... but are you sure the init program is not run? | 01:06 |
| Ninina | Hello | 01:06 |
| LiENUS | init runs | 01:06 |
| Dr_willis | too bad you dont have ssh installed. :( then ya chould ssh in. | 01:06 |
| mosibfu | Ninina: hello to you too | 01:07 |
| LiENUS | i get a blank screen when init launches the unsupported modules service | 01:07 |
| LiENUS | i never said init wasnt working | 01:07 |
| Ongaku | crimsun: Sigmatel garbage...but it doesn´t even regonize that...it regonizes it as intel kind i guess | 01:07 |
| b00 | Hello? | 01:07 |
| LiENUS | i said if i do init=/bin/sh it hangs however that isnt my primary problem | 01:07 |
| andi5 | LiENUS: i meant the "init program", i.e. /bin/sh or whatever | 01:07 |
| LiENUS | that was me replying to someones suggestion of init=/bin/sh | 01:07 |
| b00 | hm... | 01:07 |
| mosibfu | b00: hi, i wont keep saying hi ;) just ask the question ppls | 01:07 |
| andi5 | LiENUS: hey, i am just trying to help.... | 01:07 |
| compwiz18 | What directory should I put random scripts in that would be in line with the *nix file structure? I want to use them in cronjobs. | 01:07 |
| b00 | is it possible to change my IP Address? | 01:07 |
| crimsun | Ongaku: that's correct. Now I presume you mean HDA. In any case, did you install linux-backports-modules-$(uname -r) ? | 01:07 |
| Ongaku | crimsun: i dont know what that is i´m kinda new to Ubuntu | 01:08 |
| LiENUS | andi5, well help with the problem, not with peoples broken suggestions | 01:08 |
| danny | hehe | 01:08 |
| zeno | compwiz18: personal cronjobs or system-wide? | 01:08 |
| compwiz18 | zeno, system wide | 01:08 |
| LiENUS | the problem is i get a blank screen when i try to boot up | 01:08 |
| crimsun | Ongaku: it's a package. You need it if you're running gutsy with an HDA codec. | 01:08 |
| b00 | because i dont know how | 01:08 |
| crimsun | Ongaku: use a package manager to install it. | 01:08 |
| compwiz18 | LiENUS, are you using ati restricted drivers? | 01:08 |
| Ongaku | crimsun: it says intel is the asla mixer and my sigmatel audio is OSS mixer | 01:08 |
| mosibfu | b00, yes, however, i cant give u a how-to i just removed the configure thingey | 01:08 |
| LiENUS | compwiz18, no | 01:08 |
| andi5 | LiENUS: do you have older kernels lying around you could use for tests? | 01:09 |
| LiENUS | on a fresh install? | 01:09 |
| LiENUS | no | 01:09 |
| Ongaku | crimsun: the sigmatel doesn´t even work..which i find odd because itś'my audio chipset | 01:09 |
| mosibfu | b00: read: http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/howto-ubuntu-linux-convert-dhcp-network-configuration-to-static-ip-configuration.html | 01:09 |
| LiENUS | the system has never successfully booted up with this install | 01:09 |
| zeno | compwiz18: /opt/bin or /usr/local/bin or you can create a directory just for them like /opt/cronscripts | 01:09 |
| andi5 | eek | 01:09 |

| Ninina | I just saw people running ubuntu at a con I just got back from. I've desided that I want to install it or a derivitive on my computer. So I'm trying to figure out which derivitive to install and how much HD space to repartion to it | 01:10 |
| Ongaku | ninina: i´d atleast have about 10GB honestly | 01:11 |
| b00 | where do i put the code at? | 01:11 |
| __machine | does apt-get remove leave files in /etc/ and other folders? what does it leave behind? | 01:11 |
| desertc | Ninina: Welcome to the community. | 01:11 |
| Ongaku | ninina: I had it on bare install (4GB) and it ran like crud...my whole computer is Ubuntu now | 01:11 |
| desertc | Ninina: The installer will help you repartition, but you should backup your files just in case. | 01:11 |
| crimsun | Ongaku: please use Synaptic to install that package, then reboot. | 01:11 |
| mosibfu | b00: /etc/network/interfaces | 01:11 |
| marckie | hello! | 01:11 |
| Ongaku | crimsun: alright | 01:11 |
| Ninina | Ongaku: well I have about 200gb free so that isn't a problem, but shouldn't I use ummm more | 01:11 |
| desertc | !hi | 01:11 |
| ubotu | Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! | 01:11 |
| marckie | what's up docs? | 01:12 |
| marckie | !duck | 01:12 |
| Ongaku | ninina: use as much as you want :) | 01:12 |
| desertc | 200 is way more than enough | 01:12 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about duck - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 01:12 |
| Ongaku | I´m out of date lol I still have a 20GB HDD lol my 200GB died :P | 01:12 |
| b00 | i dont see it | 01:12 |
| mosibfu | Ninina, you can use as much as you want, just keep in mind that u will be installing stuff and so ;) and need some swap space | 01:12 |
| Ninina | desertc: well I want to save a bit of it for my XP as I am a confirmed video game addict | 01:12 |
| desertc | 100gb is going to be fine | 01:12 |
| pike_ | Ninina: typically i like for alot of room 7 gigs for / and at least 10 for /home now the base install though maybe only 4-5G you will want more for like music and movies etc | 01:13 |
| Ongaku | ninina: just split it in half if you really want to lol | 01:13 |
| desertc | there are lots of games for ubuntu, too | 01:13 |
| zeno | compwiz18: actually, if only root should run these scripts then change /usr/local/bin (or /opt/bin) to /usr/local/sbin (or /opt/sbin) :P | 01:13 |
| mosibfu | Ongaku, i will make u feel ancient, i have 2.5 tB | 01:13 |
| andi5 | LiENUS: even if you do not see anything at all... does entering "shutdown -r now" do anything when you start up /bin/sh? | 01:13 |
| Ongaku | mosibfu: lol wow...nice :D my bf has a tb hdd lol | 01:13 |
| compwiz18 | zeno, ok I'll do that :) thank you | 01:13 |
| andi5 | LiENUS: i wonder whether you are able to write the output of dmesg to some position you can read from | 01:13 |
| LiENUS | andi5, reboot an ubuntu 7.10 system with init=/bin/sh and try getting a terminal | 01:14 |

| Dr_willis | inversekinetix, and looks prove nothing about how effective it is. | 01:24 |
| eko_hermiyanto | but why it could not detect database source? | 01:24 |
| nickrud | raymondjtoth: no, you can use the machine like normal, just wait for the updates. Or, run synaptic, go to settings->repositories, on the updates tab disable security updates, hit reload, and then upgrade | 01:24 |
| RagingBull | LiENUS: i just dont know why lsusb doesnt show it then | 01:24 |
| sfears | your install cd's proally wouldn't work on linux anyway scott | 01:24 |

| eko_hermiyanto | I have specified the ip address, but, still could not find any database source on the ip address | 01:24 |
| inversekinetix | Dr_willis: so why dont you tell me what the benefits are instead of a being smart and telling me Im spouting off | 01:24 |
| raymondjtoth | ni what im saying is if i reboot right nowlog on i will not beable to | 01:24 |

| raymondjtoth | or one who was talking to me | 01:26 |

| BBHoss | Pelo: you ought to see some of the things sun is doing with their thin clients+java | 01:27 |
| Pelo | RaGzKiE, ubotu will give you alink , you can do it through the command line | 01:27 |

| Pelo | BBHoss, mosibfu I hate java because of the 100% cpu it causes in frostwire | 01:28 |
| RaGzKiE | Pelo: how? | 01:28 |
| jangari | any other modules i should install with synaptic besides 'kde'? | 01:28 |

| ubotu | RaGzKiE: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes | 01:28 |
| jangari | i mean, there are hundreds of kde modules | 01:28 |
| mosibfu | Pelo, that is not java, that is frostwire ;) use GTK-Gnutella, doesnt eat as much cpu | 01:28 |
| RagingBull | msg it to u | 01:28 |
| RaGzKiE | thanks :D | 01:28 |
| nickrud | jangari: don't use the kde metapackage, use kubuntu-desktop . kde is a holdover from debian | 01:28 |
| jangari | kdebase, etc., | 01:28 |
| sfears | depends what you want to do jangari | 01:28 |
| LiENUS | no i didnt get it | 01:28 |
| inversekinetix | jangari its a big download and will take a while | 01:28 |
| jangari | well, maybe i won't bother | 01:29 |
| jangari | how does kde compare with gnome? just aesthetics? | 01:29 |
| RagingBull | ah pmsg was blocked forgot my nick passwd | 01:29 |
| RagingBull | ill pastbin it | 01:29 |
| Pelo | mosibfu, java is what is using up all the cpu , it's a bug, same things happens with limewire, and in windows aswell, and gtkgnutella realy doesn't do it for me | 01:29 |
| BBHoss | Pelo: java isnt the culprit, its usually the code | 01:29 |
| inversekinetix | jangari: i think i prefer it to gnome, its much cleaner looking, but then again i like xfce best | 01:29 |
| Pelo | and mosibfu it's not all the time, but when it starts , it just stays | 01:29 |
| nickrud | jangari: kde is much more configurable from the gui, many people really like the fine tuning available (I think it's crack) | 01:29 |
| RagingBull | LiENUS: http://pastebin.com/m52c5c4f6 | 01:30 |
| sfears | i agree.. gnome is kinda old school | 01:30 |
| RagingBull | LiENUS: thats the output | 01:30 |

| Pelo | ader10, or type , gnome-control-center in the terminal | 01:36 |
| sfears | i'm not sure | 01:36 |
| BBHoss | Pelo: with that you could change a whole business over to ubuntu, then just install the needed windows programs on the server | 01:36 |
| BBHoss | then create the shortcuts on the desktop | 01:36 |

| mosibfu | Pelo, where does the conntrol center save its file, for me the mouse cant go fast enough (without acceleration) | 01:38 |
| ader10 | pelo, where is it in xorg.conf?? I made a custom one and I didn't put any mouse settings in | 01:38 |
| BBHoss | Pelo: it even puts a little icon in your system tray | 01:38 |

| Turgon | Hello. I have written this tiny script, called "Disco.sh" so I can keep an eye on my hard disk's temperature and number of cycles. You can see it here: "http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/44827/". When I invoke it from a root terminal ("gksu /usr/bin/x-terminal-emulator", then "/home/thorin/.scripts/Disco.sh"), it works flawlessly. Three lines appear in the file "Vigilancia.log": one for date, another one for total "Load_Cycle_Count", and the last one prints | 01:46 |
| Turgon | the temperature. My problem is that I want this script to be automatically run each hour, so I execute "gksudo /usr/bin/gnome-schedule", and add a new task to be done each hour: "/home/thorin/.scripts/Disco.sh". My problem is that each hour, only the date gets added to the file "Vigilancia.log", not the cycle not temperature. Where am I blundering? Thanks for your time reading this :-) | 01:46 |

| mosibfu | JohnCub, nope, everyone has that, the update isnt 100% good, will be fixed soon | 01:51 |
| Eigenaar | so I'm off to downloading partition magic; as a safer way instead of doing it within the ubuntu installation | 01:51 |
| sfears | Eigenaar... you really shouldn't worry about it | 01:51 |
| JohnDoe | Who knows the differece between desktop edition and alternate edition? | 01:51 |
| Pelo | JohnCub, maybe the updated packagde is not available atm for a number of reeason, wait a couple of days before deciding you have aproblem | 01:51 |

| Shadix | how do I get my internet to work | 01:52 |
| Pelo | JohnCub, desktop is a live cd, alternate is just a text installer | 01:52 |

| desertc | Vsop_vsop_vsop_v: dual monitors work well with my nvidia | 01:52 |

| Pelo | Lord_MuffloN^, use my nick in the same line as your comment | 01:55 |

| Lord_MuffloN^ | danny: check out aircrack-ng.org | 01:55 |

| raranp | danny: no prob, good luck | 01:56 |
| sipsipclick | danny, you need to enable promisc mode on your nic | 01:56 |
| kode | jangari: so what did you type exactly? | 01:56 |
| mosibfu | ztomic: probarbly yes, it does afect upgrading from 6.10 to newer so.. | 01:56 |

| * d-_-b sweats | 01:56 | |
| Lord_MuffloN^ | Pelo: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/44830/ | 01:56 |

| nickrud | ztomic: as soon as the install goes to update, that is | 01:56 |
| jangari | just to see the network | 01:56 |
| Eigenaar | If I get everything right I should make 3 new partitions? Root, Swap and a Home | 01:56 |
| danny | ok | 01:56 |
| d-_-b | its hot in here | 01:56 |
| * d-_-b rolls down the #windows | 01:57 | |
| kode | ah to see all details use: iwlist scan | 01:57 |
| sfears | root swap home and windows | 01:57 |
| sipsipclick | danny, "ifconfig eth0 promisc" for example | 01:57 |
| mosibfu | Eigenaar, home doesnt have to be a seperate partition, that is optional, if you dont make a home, it will be under root | 01:57 |
| nickrud | Eigenaar: yes, and if you have the space, add /tmp as separate partition | 01:57 |
| sfears | root swap and home are all for linux.. windows only require one drive.. then uses a swap file instead of a swap drive | 01:57 |
| jangari | yep, just my network | 01:57 |
| Eigenaar | When I do it like that, will Windows be my default OS? | 01:57 |
| jangari | wep-40? i thought i only had wpa?! | 01:58 |
| ztomic | nickrud: it did and mentioned something about commented out sections in /etc/apt/sources... should I fix that soon or can I disreguard? | 01:58 |
| mosibfu | Eigenaar: default os you can set that up in grub, once linux is installed | 01:58 |
| desertc | Eigenaar: You'll get a prompt for which one to boot. | 01:58 |
| sipsipclick | unless you're doing a server i'd leave /tmp and /var on the / filesystem | 01:58 |
| Pelo | Lord_MuffloN^, I have no idea what those mean , I suggest you look them up on google or maybe try asking in ##linux | 01:58 |
| sfears | you might need to configure the grub boot menu file... /boot/grub/menu.lst | 01:58 |
| jangari | cometo think of it, i can't connect using my other windows machine either | 01:58 |
| Pelo | afk | 01:58 |
| jangari | i think someone's hacked into the router and changed the key | 01:58 |
| nickrud | ztomic: depends on what it said was commented out; if you have gutsy-security commented out you will avoid the update issue | 01:58 |
| jangari | or something | 01:59 |
| sfears | i upgraded to 7.10 last night.. seems to have worked fine | 01:59 |
| kode | jangari: would be quite hard with WPA | 01:59 |
| Eigenaar | what minimum space should I use? Root=? Swap=1gig Home=? | 01:59 |
| ztomic | nickrud: I thyink thats what it did. I will check later and fix it. | 01:59 |
| nickrud | Eigenaar: after the install, you can make a change to the boot loader that will make windows the default os | 01:59 |
| sfears | don't forget about your windows partition | 01:59 |
| desertc | Eigenaar: Eigenaar: How much space do you have? | 01:59 |
| Eigenaar | not much, but I could always throw away some extra avi's when necessary ;) | 02:00 |
| sfears | NOT THE PORN! | 02:00 |
| Eigenaar | for the moment +/- 14 gig | 02:00 |
| ztomic | So the samba thing cropped up today? | 02:00 |
| sipsipclick | Eigenaar, suggested swap size used to be twice your physical memory. not so true anymore as you'll rarely swap out. try 512-2gig max | 02:00 |
| mosibfu | Eigenaar: stuff gets installed to both the root and the home, so it all depends on what and how much you will install | 02:00 |
| mosibfu | ztomic, yes | 02:00 |
| ztomic | ouch | 02:00 |
| danny | when im in wireshark i get this message | 02:00 |
| desertc | Eigenaar: / = 7 gig, swap = 1 gig, home = 6 gig | 02:00 |
| danny | The capture session could not be initiated (socket: Operation not permitted). | 02:00 |
| danny | Please check to make sure you have sufficient permissions, and that you have the proper interface or pipe specified. | 02:00 |
| nickrud | Eigenaar: with only 14gb, no point in having a separate home, it's not efficient use of space | 02:01 |
| sipsipclick | Eigenaar, on advantage to putting /home on a seperate partition is that if you switch to another distro you can leave your /home in tact | 02:01 |
| desertc | Eigenaar: I defer to nickrud | 02:01 |

| sipsipclick | it'd be nice if that bot's message was in the native language | 02:08 |
| stevenrushing_ | one last... does my bios settings matter... should it be set to onboard or pci? when i try to boot from pci it goes to a black screen... | 02:08 |
| desertc | :o) | 02:08 |
| Roscar | I'm running gutsy gibbon. | 02:09 |
| jangari | what should i look for in ifconfig? | 02:09 |
| * Pelo is just a regular user, and nickrud is an eternal noob, it would be a good match | 02:09 | |
| Audacioustrash | Hello' | 02:09 |
| mosibfu | pelo: having it fixed is the other half, however fixing it can be frustrating | 02:09 |
| changelog | mosibfu, you up for the challenge? | 02:09 |
| mosibfu | changelog: i love a challenge lol | 02:09 |
| desertc | !effects | roscar | 02:09 |
| ubotu | roscar: Desktop Effects are supported on graphics cards that use the default Intel and ATI drivers and the restricted !NVIDIA drivers, except for the following, which are blacklisted due to stability/compatibility issues: Intel 965, ATI Rs480 and Rv350, ATI Mobility x300, x600 and x700 - Join #compiz-fusion for anything not officially supported by Ubuntu | 02:09 |
| sipsipclick | steven_office, use PCI if you aren't usign the onboard vga as the primary display | 02:09 |
| changelog | :) | 02:09 |
| ztomic | mosibfu: I got a 9550 that will not work with fglrx worth a darn. cant get compiz to work on xorg-ati drivers. But when I put a 7200 in the machine, it works like a charm. | 02:09 |
| nickrud | stevenrushing_: if it comes up black, try alt-ctl-f1 , see if you get a text screen. If so, do sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg | 02:09 |
| raranp | jangari: sorry I am late to the show, what was brand/model of router? | 02:10 |
| stevenrushing_ | thank you! | 02:10 |
| Pelo | Roscar, menu > sytem > prefs > appearance, the last tab I think just turn off the effects and try again, if that 's not enough ask in #winhq for further help | 02:10 |
| RaGzKiE | guys i tried to get wine and this is what i got: http://img444.imageshack.us/img444/7472/screenshotvk6.png | 02:10 |
| jangari | linksys... | 02:10 |
| nickrud | Pelo: that's the nicest thing you've said to me ;) | 02:10 |
| mosibfu | ztomic, same here, thats why ive switched to nvidia for life (untill open source ati drivers are done, then ill switch back) | 02:10 |
| RaGzKiE | is it ok? | 02:10 |
| kode | jangari: you should look at eth0 inet address | 02:10 |
| mosibfu | ztomic: but i ran a single 7600GT, now 2x 8500GT in sli (A) | 02:10 |
| sipsipclick | steven_office, "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop", install drivers, sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start | 02:10 |
| Audacioustrash | #ubuntu-georgia | 02:10 |
| Roscar | pelo: ubotu: Is there no way to just replace the window manager? i'd prefer that. | 02:10 |
| ztomic | mosibfu: sli is overkill for me | 02:11 |
| desertc | !xubuntu | 02:11 |
| ubotu | xubuntu is Ubuntu with Xfce instead of Gnome. For more info, see http://www.xubuntu.org and http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/ - To install from Ubuntu: "sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop". | For support, see #xubuntu | See also: !ubuntu and !xubuntu-channels | 02:11 |
| jangari | i have a wlan0 inet address | 02:11 |
| Pelo | Roscar, metacity is default, unintall emrald if you have it installed | 02:11 |
| sipsipclick | RaGzKiE, did you run apt-get -f install? | 02:11 |
| mosibfu | ztomic: i love overkill, have SLI, dual core 4400+ @ 2.7 ghz, and 2.5 tB, if you do something, you might aswell do it right | 02:11 |
| sipsipclick | without "wine" on the end | 02:11 |
| ztomic | mosibfu: I just want the dang thing to work. But you're right. It swings back and forth between NV and ATI. | 02:11 |
| jangari | oh pardon, i found it | 02:11 |
| nickrud | mosibfu: when do you start your cluster? | 02:11 |
| irreducibilis | Thats nice. | 02:12 |
| mosibfu | ztomic: ati will reign superior soon, with open sourced driver | 02:12 |
| changelog | mosibfu, you have a freakin' google server | 02:12 |
| changelog | damn | 02:12 |
| Roscar | pelo: I thought compiz was default on gutsy. are you sure removing emerald will do the trick? | 02:12 |
| danny | whats a good program to look into computer's on your network | 02:12 |
| woojjob | damn | 02:12 |
| changelog | i have 1.3tb worth of storage, and i thought i had a lot | 02:12 |
| mosibfu | changelog: i dont have a google server lol, i love movies and music | 02:12 |
| irreducibilis | If only ATI could keep up with speed. | 02:12 |
| desertc | danny: ssh | 02:12 |
| changelog | mosibfu, same here, although 2.5tb is huge for me | 02:12 |
| nickrud | danny: nmap | 02:12 |
| jangari | kode, that eth0 inet address, is that the ip of the router? | 02:12 |
| danny | nmap? ssh? | 02:12 |
| sipsipclick | mosibfu, or better yet ATIs open source drivers forces nvidia to open source theirs | 02:13 |
| sfears | i've installed build-essential and when i run "make" inside the directory of the uncompressed tar file it just hangs there.. would that have to do with me not having kernel header files? | 02:13 |
| R_J | Alright so i used the iwconfig essid name key KEY command...now im suppost to get an ip using dhclient wlan0 | 02:13 |
| Pelo | Roscar, compiz is part of the default install but will only be enalbles to the level your comp can handle if any , you can jsut turn it off in the appearanc dialog , just do that | 02:13 |
| desertc | There is no ATI any more. | 02:13 |
| irreducibilis | sipsipclick: Oh yes... | 02:13 |
| jangari | or of this coputer this session? | 02:13 |
| R_J | but i get a no leases message | 02:13 |
| mosibfu | irreducibilis: open source means: ati doesnt have to keep up, the community will improve faster then the single programmer nvidia has dedictated to linux | 02:13 |
| Shadix | how do i connect to the net in terminal | 02:13 |
| kode | jangari: no that's your computers ip | 02:13 |
| jangari | right | 02:13 |
| jangari | can i get the router's ip? | 02:13 |
| mosibfu | irreducibilis: so, i figure in half a year, ati will be superior | 02:13 |
| kode | your router should be similar, only 1 at the end | 02:13 |
| nickrud | danny: nmap will examine the ports on the other machine, ssh lets you log into the other machine if it has an ssh-server running | 02:13 |
| ztomic | mosibfu: it looks like I'll have to edit /etc/apt/sources.list to remove the commented sections/ | 02:13 |
| Pelo | Roscar, emerald is just the decorator , but it is demanding and might cause isues for some | 02:13 |
| sipsipclick | sfears, it shouldn't hang regardless. what are you trying to build? do other things build? | 02:13 |
| kode | like 192.168.1.1 | 02:13 |
| irreducibilis | Well we shall see. | 02:13 |
| R_J | hey kode, are you teachiin him how to get an ip | 02:13 |
| R_J | after you connect? | 02:13 |
| jangari | well, i changed it since i have an adsl modem with that ip | 02:13 |
| irreducibilis | I sometimes change sides to whoever is winning | 02:13 |
| jangari | i changed it to ...1.2 | 02:13 |
| jangari | but now firefox can't connect to it | 02:14 |
| DShepherd | so all other updates are good to go except for samba? | 02:14 |
| danny | is there a way i can remotely shutdown a computer | 02:14 |
| haoyuan | 转到中文 | 02:14 |
| alphin | if I downgraded back to fiesty can I somehow take my downloaded cds from gutsy to fiesty? | 02:14 |
| woojjob | ubuntu is used for embeded? | 02:14 |
| alphin | some kind of import | 02:14 |
| sipsipclick | woojjob, no | 02:14 |
| kode | R_J: no, I'm trying to get him connected to his router plain and simple :) | 02:14 |
| CaelanArcher | Okay, guys... I'm another one of those Ubuntu noobs needing help connecting to a wireless network. | 02:14 |
| woojjob | huh | 02:14 |
| jangari | but i think the issue is router-bound | 02:14 |
| desertc | !cn > haoyuan | 02:14 |
| Pelo | !wifi | CaelanArcher start here | 02:14 |
| ubotu | CaelanArcher start here: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 02:14 |
| R_J | ok well thanks for the help with the iwconfig essid name key KEy command | 02:15 |
| jangari | because i can't connect with my windows machine either | 02:15 |
| jangari | anymore | 02:15 |
| mosibfu | ztomic: ye but its nice that they put them in there standard with a comment in front, instead of adding em all | 02:15 |
| R_J | i got that working perfect | 02:15 |
| haoyuan | thank you | 02:15 |
| R_J | but now i need to get an ip right? | 02:15 |
| danny | is there a program where i can shutdown a user remotely? | 02:15 |
| jangari | yeah, thanks kode | 02:15 |
| DShepherd | danny, you can do so via ssh | 02:15 |
| Pelo | !enter | 02:15 |
| ztomic | mosibfu: yeah | 02:15 |
| ubotu | Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 02:15 |
| jangari | for your (ongoing) help | 02:15 |
| mosibfu | sipsipclick: i hope that will happen, but i fear not | 02:15 |
| sipsipclick | danny, shutdown a *user*? | 02:15 |
| desertc | danny: Why would you want to shutdown a user? | 02:15 |
| raranp | CaelanArcher: how far have you gone with it so far? | 02:15 |
| kode | R_J: normally your computer asks an ip to the router after that command | 02:15 |
| danny | this user on my network is hacking | 02:15 |
| danny | i dont know who he is | 02:16 |
| R_J | ya thats odd because thats what i thought it did too | 02:16 |
| DShepherd | danny, you said computer before.... | 02:16 |
| danny | yes | 02:16 |
| sipsipclick | danny, killall takes the option -u to kill processes belonging to a particular user | 02:16 |
| danny | it is a computer | 02:16 |
| woojjob | who.s user | 02:16 |
| desertc | danny: Use the ping of death. | 02:16 |
| danny | ping their ip? | 02:16 |
| kode | jangari: can you ping to your router? try ping 192.168.1.2 | 02:16 |
| ztomic | mosibfu: back to the radeon thing... it's funny that my slow-ass 7200 runs better than may 9550... hehe. | 02:16 |
| R_J | but the thing is kode a while ago i got this set up | 02:16 |
| Pici | !ot | 02:16 |
| ubotu | #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! | 02:16 |
| R_J | i was told to do a dhclient wlan0 | 02:16 |
| mosibfu | ztomic: simple cards require simple drivers ;) | 02:17 |
| R_J | but now it doesnt seem to work like it did before | 02:17 |
| danny | ok | 02:17 |
| Shadix | can someone help we with a blankscreen issue | 02:17 |
| jangari | unreachable | 02:17 |
| raranp | CaelanArcher: you there? | 02:17 |
| sfears | hello | 02:17 |
| alphin | is ubuntu 7.04 still an alternative to 7.10 at this point? | 02:17 |
| Shadix | heya | 02:17 |
| kode | jangari: to check for your gateway(router) type route -n | 02:17 |
| Pelo | Shadix, when do you get this blank screen ? what did you do brfore | 02:17 |
| jangari | how do i halt a process? | 02:17 |
| nclife | mh, a silly question. I can't find the volume control panel, what would be the command to increase the headphones volume? | 02:17 |
| Pelo | alphin, 7.04 is the previous release , you can use it fi you want | 02:17 |
| DShepherd | danny, do you know the username of the user? if you do then killall -u user should get him off.. | 02:17 |
| nickrud | alphin: yes, it'll have support for nearly a year yet | 02:17 |
| ztomic | mosibfu: I use that older one for vid capture in windows but I can't get capture to work in linux. | 02:18 |
| kode | R_J: what is different now? | 02:18 |
| R_J | well it wont connect | 02:18 |
| danny | ok | 02:18 |
| sipsipclick | nclife, alsamixer | 02:18 |
| R_J | after i do a iwconfig essid...etc | 02:18 |
| R_J | it doesnt connect | 02:18 |
| jangari | or how many sequences will the ping go through? | 02:18 |
| R_J | but i remember having to do an dhclient | 02:18 |
| R_J | because i dont think it gets the ip automatically | 02:18 |
| desertc | nclife: It's in the gnome menu | 02:18 |
| alphin | well Pelo or nickrud can I take my cds I downloaded from gutsy's torrent downloaded and somehow import them to my fiesty? | 02:18 |
| Pelo | !enter | R_J | 02:18 |
| ubotu | R_J: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 02:18 |
| sfears | sudo ifup wlan0 | 02:18 |
| desertc | nclife: Preferences->Volume Control. | 02:18 |
| sipsipclick | R_J, try "dhclient wlan0" | 02:18 |
| kode | you can always do it of course, doens't hurt to do a dhclient | 02:18 |
| sfears | or wlan1 or wlan2 | 02:18 |
| scottDkoDer | Is anyone using gutsy willing to try and install the 'apt-file' package? I tried to 'sudo apt-get install apt-file' and it downloads fine, but "Setting up apt-file (2.0.8.2ubuntu2) ..." is taking WAY too long. Any takers? | 02:19 |
| aladinsane | Anybody know of a packer/unpacker with GUI that can unpack multiple files (not belonging to the same archive)? | 02:19 |
| alphin | without the use of blank cd? | 02:19 |
| aladinsane | Like Winrar in windows. | 02:19 |
| nickrud | alphin: no, the gutsy debs are for use with gutsy only | 02:19 |
| mosibfu | ztomic: capturing video needs some advanced tweaking, wich the ati control panel gives u in windows standard:P | 02:19 |
| alphin | no nickrud | 02:19 |
| druggist | how do i get the mac address on my card | 02:19 |
| Shadix | Pelo: installed ubuntu lol....what happens is that at boot my monitor goes to sleep as if no sig, if I startx i get to that desktop but it's restriced of course. i've tried vesa | 02:19 |
| alphin | I downloaded cds | 02:19 |
| Pelo | alphin I think you are a bit confused you can use those cd to eitehr upgrade or install gutsy | 02:19 |
| alphin | can I import them to fiesty? | 02:19 |
| druggist | how do i get the mac address on my card | 02:19 |
| kode | druggist: type ifconfig | 02:19 |
| R_J | <sipsipclick> i tried that i got a no leases in database | 02:19 |
| SpeakerMania | How do I format my hard disk that is in NTFS? | 02:19 |
| nickrud | alphin: yes, but the software on those cd's are packaged as debs. | 02:19 |
| kode | druggist: it's the number after HWaddre | 02:19 |
| sipsipclick | Pelo, do you have multiple video cards, or maybe an on board card? | 02:19 |
| alphin | they are music cds nickrud ... | 02:19 |
| Pelo | Shadix, what is your video card ? | 02:19 |
| CaelanArcher | raranp, sorry... I was reading through some docs | 02:20 |
| mosibfu | Speakermania install gparted | 02:20 |
| desertc | SpeakerMania: Partition Editor | 02:20 |
| Shadix | ATI Radeon X700 pro | 02:20 |
| alphin | I downloaded them on gutsy, not burned them | 02:20 |
| Pelo | sipsipclick, wrong nick | 02:20 |
| savvas | where do we send bugs for the Ubuntu JeOS? ( http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/jeos/ ) | 02:20 |
| alphin | they are full cds I got off the internet | 02:20 |
| raranp | CaelanArcher: no problem, that's always a good start | 02:20 |
| sipsipclick | Shadix, i mean. damn this channel is too busy | 02:20 |
| DShepherd | !format > SpeakerMania | 02:20 |
| alphin | of music | 02:20 |
| nickrud | alphin: ah, different :) stick in the cd with mp3's on it, drag & drop them where you want | 02:20 |
| alphin | I didnt want to burn them to cd... | 02:20 |
| alphin | I thought I could do some kind of import. | 02:20 |
| danny | how do i view if he's off now net -u | 02:20 |
| SpeakerMania | !format | 02:20 |
| aladinsane | Anybody know of a packer/unpacker with GUI that can unpack multiple files (not belonging to the same archive)? | 02:20 |
| ubotu | Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted (also "man mkfs" for formatting) - Mounting partitions in Gnome under Dapper: System -> Administration -> Disks - For Edgy, see !fstab and !DiskMounter | 02:21 |
| aladinsane | Like Winrar in windows. | 02:21 |
| Pelo | Shadix, ok start by getting the vesa driver back , from the recovery mode sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg , select vesa when ask , you'll get your desktop back, then if the restricted driver didn'T work, come back here for the binaries instructions | 02:21 |
| jangari | kode: one of the lines returned fro route -n: 169.254.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 0 0 0 wlan0 | 02:21 |
| ztomic | mosibfu: been looking for an alternative. v4l seems best but choosing a card/usb-device is difficult. | 02:21 |
| nickrud | alphin: I think we're talking at cross purposes, exactly where are these files | 02:21 |
| preaction | aladinsane, File Roller handles component rar files just fine | 02:21 |
| scottDkoDer | Is anyone using gutsy willing to try and install the 'apt-file' package? I tried to 'sudo apt-get install apt-file' and it downloads fine, but "Setting up apt-file (2.0.8.2ubuntu2) ..." is taking WAY too long. Any takers? | 02:21 |
| Shadix | I'll giver a try but vesa didn't work last time. thx | 02:21 |
| alphin | nickrud, in my gutsy gibbon's share folder downloaded via it's torrent downloader | 02:21 |
| preaction | aladinsane, (it's the default Gnome archiver tool) | 02:21 |
| Pelo | aladinsane, rile roller will do it, you might need to add the support of the format, sudo apt-get install unrar unzip , I don'T remember anyother by heart | 02:21 |
| nickrud | scottDkoDer: it takes a long time, it's a big file | 02:21 |
| mosibfu | ztomic: ye thats true, i only have a webcam working so im no expert with capturing from a 3d card | 02:22 |
| CaelanArcher | I guess I'm just so confused about this wireless because I'm on a college network, and I'll have to VPN later... but for now, I can't even seem to detect the wireless network | 02:22 |
| danny | how do i check if the user is off my network? | 02:22 |
| kode | jangari: do you also see a line with a gateway not being 0.0.0.0? Also try to do: dhclient | 02:22 |
| CaelanArcher | wireless card is recognized, drivers are installed | 02:22 |
| alphin | but they are music files, in the cds downloaded folder | 02:22 |
| nickrud | alphin: ok, and where's your feisty? | 02:22 |
| alphin | it will be installed on this machine | 02:22 |
| sipsipclick | danny, stop trying to hack your sister's computer | 02:22 |
| sfears | linux-headers-2.6.20-15-generic is already the newest version.E: Couldn't find package 2.6.20-15.27.. any idea how i can add kernel headers to my 2.6.20-16-lowlatency | 02:22 |
| raranp | CaelanArcher: what is your wireless chipset? | 02:22 |
| nickrud | alphin: ah. ok | 02:22 |
| Pelo | later folks | 02:22 |
| mosibfu | #ubuntu-nl | 02:22 |
| alphin | so can I import all them instead of wasting cds? | 02:22 |
| jangari | yeah, the eth0 line has a gateway of 192.168.1.1, but that's the modem | 02:22 |
| R_J | <sipsipclick> i tried that i got a no leases in database | 02:23 |
| nickrud | do you have a windows partition there? | 02:23 |
| alphin | I dont care to burn them if I have them all on my computer | 02:23 |
| danny | wow im not dude really there's a car outside and there's a strange program popping up when i sniff the network | 02:23 |
| scottDkoDer | nickrud: I installed it without such qualms on my other partition here, not to mention my slower intel 700mhz cpu... | 02:23 |
| nickrud | scottDkoDer: how long is long? | 02:23 |
| kode | jangari: your router address is 192.168.1.1 | 02:23 |
| darrend | anyone know why apache2 is a dependency of php5 ?? | 02:23 |
| danny | its saying brute | 02:23 |
| === adante__ is now known as adante | ||
| mosibfu | danny: that car is sniffing your wireless network, wich is really easy to hack.. use wires if you dont want it | 02:23 |
| SpeakerMania | Now, how do I use gparted? | 02:23 |
| scottDkoDer | nickrud: Like 10 minutes so far... | 02:23 |
| nickrud | alphin: there's a technique; you wound create a directory called for example /music on the gutsy | 02:23 |
| jangari | here's the situation: i have a modem-router and a wireless router, | 02:24 |
| desertc | danny: A .. car?! .. Outside? Run, run for your life! | 02:24 |
| mosibfu | danny: how they do it is described on infinityexists.com thats how easy it is | 02:24 |
| scottDkoDer | nickrud: It finally returned, thanks | 02:24 |
| alphin | nickrud, I have long road out of eden on here (20 songs) and eric claptons newest (36 of his hits) seriously? i'd be burning for hours... | 02:24 |
| mosibfu | danny: so you might aswell go beat em up | 02:24 |
| nickrud | alphin: then, move your music there. | 02:24 |
| danny | it's saying brute fource and codes pop up with parts of passwords | 02:24 |
| h|barbobot | http://www.craigslist.org/about/best/aaa/425529349.html | 02:24 |
| Lord_MuffloN^ | How do I save a .conf file when it says I do not have permissions? | 02:24 |
| jangari | the former doesn't do much in the way of routing except straight t the wireless router | 02:24 |
| nclife | sipsipclick, desertc thanks a lot. alsamixer worked well | 02:24 |
| Lord_MuffloN^ | OR well, how do I save it as sudo | 02:24 |
| CaelanArcher | I've got an Intel Pro/Wireless 2100 (driver=ipw2100) | 02:24 |
| desertc | danny: Go out and say hello. Gzeez. Stop stressing out. | 02:24 |
| ztomic | mosibfu: yeah, I hear ya. it gets even more difficult when HDTV hits in 09 and you have to deal with encrypted video over dvi source. | 02:24 |
| danny | lol | 02:24 |
| h|barbobot | sorry wrong window | 02:24 |
| raranp | CaelanArcher: what version of ubuntu are you on? | 02:24 |
| nickrud | alphin: next, you would boot a live cd, and delete everything on the gutsy partition, except for /music | 02:24 |
| danny | ill pop a clip up their *** | 02:24 |
| purepain | <Lord_MuffloN try sudo | 02:24 |
| CaelanArcher | I'm on gutsy | 02:25 |
| sipsipclick | nclife, i think you might need to run "alsactl save" | 02:25 |
| desertc | danny: I'm being completely serious, why hide in your house worrying. | 02:25 |
| nickrud | alphin: when you install feisty, you would tell it to not format the partition, and it will install around the music directory | 02:25 |

| Lord_MuffloN^ | How do I give a sudo command then? | 02:25 |
| raranp | CaelanArcher: do you see a entry for wireless in your network settings screen? | 02:25 |
| kode | jangari: I see,but the router you connected by cable it's address is 1922.168.1.1. If your mode/router is also that address, you have a conflict, and that's why you won't get any internet | 02:25 |
| purepain | <Lord_MuffloN what file? | 02:25 |
| Lord_MuffloN^ | modules.conf | 02:25 |
| raranp | kode: did you catch he has two routers? | 02:25 |
| nclife | sipsipclick, it says unknown command | 02:25 |
| sipsipclick | danny, call the cops and setup WPA/WPA2 and use registered mac addresses only | 02:25 |
| Jack_Sparrow | gksudo gedit /folder/file | 02:25 |
| nickrud | alphin: that make sense to you? | 02:25 |

| CaelanArcher | I see "Wireless Connection: roaming mode enabled"... but no networks listed | 02:26 |
| purepain | <Lord_MuffloN okok, sudo gedit /path/modules.conf | 02:26 |

| alphin | do you have an instant messenger to explain to me more? nickrud because too much flooding of chat going on | 02:26 |
| danny | yo ill brb im taking care of this | 02:26 |
| alphin | reading fast makes me not grasp the whole picture | 02:26 |

| nickrud | alphin: no, I don't have an instant messenger | 02:27 |
| alphin | =\ | 02:27 |
| sipsipclick | nickrud, ! do you know what year this is? | 02:27 |

| kode | that's a possibility, if you do onot get any response, it's the way to go | 02:38 |
| raranp | R_J_: if you can, tried the wired port and see if you get one from the router that way. it will clear router and dhcp configs | 02:38 |

| R_J_ | and it should config it itself | 02:39 |
| R_J_ | ? | 02:39 |
| astro76 | nickrud, then you can check/uncheck the format option for it | 02:39 |
| DShepherd | ipx_laptop, System -- Preferences-- Power management and check Dim on Display on the AC Power tab or the Batter Power tab | 02:39 |

| jangari | but i'd have assumed that by disconnecting, no matter how fast, you'd have to acquire another ip | 02:47 |
| sipsipclick | ipx_laptop, it looks like the setting is stored in gconf. you can try using the gconf-editor and setting the value manually , key is at /apps/gnome-power-management/timeout/ | 02:47 |

| kode | jangari: or something else you can try is to use https://192.168.1.1 | 02:53 |
| jessd | cake45: Do "ls -lh ndiswrapper-1.49.tar.gz" | 02:53 |
| jangari | secure? alright, i'll try that | 02:53 |

| Jack_Sparrow | np | 02:53 |
| jessd | cake45: Does that return anything? | 02:53 |
| sipsipclick | the reason they name it Precision is to indicate that all models of that line will have the same exact hardware/drivers. The alternative is the Dimension line, which is usually cheaper and what you should get over Precision unless you're using a delta/binary imaging/ghosting build technology | 02:53 |

| jangari | is xfce good? | 02:59 |
| bruenig | xfce > * | 02:59 |
| nickrud | I think xfce is better than asterisk, also | 02:59 |
| sipsipclick | madman91, you could move /etc/irssi.conf to /etc/irssi.conf.bak... you could overwrite the specific settings you don't like... | 02:59 |
| bruenig | asterisk is so overrated | 03:00 |
| MattJ_ | !best | 03:00 |
| ubotu | Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors. | 03:00 |
| MattJ_ | That said, I like Xfce too :) | 03:00 |
| * RoAkSoAx se va a xupar unos rikos tragos | 03:00 | |
| cake45 | the ndiswrapper guide says " NOTE: Source-directory is for the ndiswrapper directory that you just created. (NOT the /usr/src directory)" but its trying "mkdir: cannot create directory `/lib/modules/2.6.22-14-generic/misc': Permission denied" .... should I use sudo or a different dir? | 03:00 |
| madman91 | sipsipclick: i would, but i dont have access to the global file | 03:00 |
| jessd | cake45: sudo | 03:01 |
| jangari | i might give xfce a go | 03:01 |
| MattJ_ | jangari: You already know of Xubuntu? | 03:01 |
| jangari | yes | 03:01 |
| === kode is now known as Kode | ||
| bruenig | xubuntu is not the best xfce has to offer | 03:01 |
| jangari | but is it not easier to just install xfce over the top of ubuntu with gnome? | 03:01 |
| bruenig | if you are going to go with xfce, go with zenwalk or a dedicated xfce distro, not ubuntu's undersupported bastard | 03:02 |
| dbe | jangari: Why not? | 03:02 |
| sipsipclick | madman91, i don't know if you can ignore the whole file but you can overwrite the settings in your own personal irssi config file | 03:02 |
| MattJ_ | bruenig: That's harsh | 03:02 |
| jangari | i don't feel like installing a whole nother distro | 03:02 |
| jangari | i had enough problems with ubuntu | 03:02 |
| bruenig | MattJ_, it is never tested | 03:02 |
| MattJ_ | jangari: Install xubuntu-desktop | 03:02 |
| nickrud | bruenig: zenwalk? I didn't like xubuntu, what's that one? | 03:02 |
| madman91 | I'll try. But it hasn't been working. Thanks sipsipclick | 03:02 |
| MattJ_ | bruenig: Then help test it :) | 03:02 |
| jangari | i'm already instaling xfce | 03:02 |
| jangari | xfce4* | 03:03 |
| dbe | jangari: Its usally better to stay with a dist rather then switch to another just because of the DE. | 03:03 |
| jangari | iagree, dbe | 03:03 |
| sipsipclick | nickrud, zenwalk is to slackware as ubuntu is to debian | 03:03 |
| jangari | that's why i said i'm staying with ubuntu and installing xfce on top | 03:03 |
| unbeatabl | what does ubuntu do well | 03:03 |
| bruenig | nickrud, look on the google | 03:03 |
| MattJ_ | Xubuntu *is* Ubuntu, just Xfce and some different apps | 03:03 |
| nickrud | sipsipclick: ah, dangeous package management | 03:03 |
| unbeatabl | is there something ubuntu exels at? | 03:03 |
| unbeatabl | compared to other linux's? | 03:03 |
| MattJ_ | and pre-configured | 03:04 |
| bruenig | unbeatabl, slow boot times | 03:04 |
| unbeatabl | thats a bad thing | 03:04 |
| bruenig | it does that better than any distro I have seen | 03:04 |
| sipsipclick | nickrud, not really | 03:04 |
| jessd | unbeatabl : Lots of users == mature package tree | 03:04 |
| dbe | jangari: Ever tried gNewSense? | 03:04 |
| nickrud | bruenig: on the page; bad question, I really meant what do you like especially about it | 03:04 |
| jangari | no, dbe | 03:04 |
| unbeatabl | lets compare centos with debian | 03:04 |
| jangari | i'm a recent windows defector | 03:04 |
| sipsipclick | nickrud, they've got dependency checking in it now | 03:04 |
| unbeatabl | what does debian do well, as opposed to centos | 03:04 |
| jangari | i want ease of set up, and ubuntu is all setup nw | 03:04 |
| jangari | now* | 03:04 |
| gravemind | hey guys - anybody know how to do last.fm on ubuntu? | 03:05 |
| jessd | unbeatabl: I develop for centos and ubuntu | 03:05 |
| bruenig | nickrud, it is devved like a lightweight distro and designed around that principle, whereas xfce might as well be crippled gnome on ubuntu because there is no real emphasis on lightweight | 03:05 |
| MattJ_ | unbeatabl: That's not a question for #ubuntu now :) | 03:05 |
| dbe | jangari: Its a deriv of Ubuntu but it just consist of free software. That is the most imporant thing in every dist. | 03:05 |
| astro76 | unbeatabl, try #ubuntu-offtopic | 03:05 |
| unbeatabl | jessd: well then what have you say | 03:05 |
| unbeatabl | oh noes | 03:05 |
| sipsipclick | jangari, you won't find an easier distro to setup than ubuntu | 03:05 |
| unbeatabl | im not here for flame war | 03:05 |
| jessd | unbeatabl: RPM can be pretty painful on dependancy snarls, and making RPM's is tough | 03:05 |
| MattJ_ | gravemind: Yeah... there is a player that supports it... doh, I forget the name... | 03:05 |
| nickrud | sipsipclick: ah, up to the 90's now :) Just kidding, I liked slack, used it briefly before switching to debian | 03:05 |
| jangari | sure, but how easy is it to switch from ubuntu to kubundu of xubuntu? | 03:05 |
| unbeatabl | what does ubuntu use | 03:05 |
| bruenig | making debs isn't a piece of cake | 03:05 |

| unbeatabl | centos can also use apt no? | 03:06 |

| SpeakerMania | How can I get my Hard drive to mount automatically when I log in? | 03:06 |
| bruenig | jangari, it is the same thing, that is why it is pointless. You aren't really going to get lightweight with xubuntu because it still has all of the ram suck that normal ubuntu has. | 03:06 |

| astro76 | dmi3on, no, mount point is an empty directory, typically a subdirectory of /media, or /mnt | 03:18 |

| HLM | ! firestarter | 03:21 |
| flake | ahh ty | 03:21 |
| ubotu | Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE). | 03:21 |

| AnnonZi | Was thinking about buying a Mac mini soon, and wanted to know how easy it is to get Ubuntu running on it. From what I understand, installing just Ubuntu on the hard drive is pretty easy (just following the regular install steps). But it seems like getting it to work with Boot Camp isn't very straight-forward. Does anyone know if this has changed recently (with the release of Boot Camp 2.0 maybe?)? | 03:22 |
| sipsipclick | cake45, use sudo | 03:22 |
| sipsipclick | !sudo | 03:22 |
| ubotu | sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information. | 03:22 |
| cake45 | but its not in terminal! | 03:22 |
| Burlynn | AnnonZi: uh its super easy with bootcamp. ive got it running on a new macbook | 03:23 |
| MattJ_ | cake45: Alt+F2, run: gksudo nautilus | 03:23 |
| Flannel | cake45: `gksu nautilus` but, why do you need to copy/paste to sbin? | 03:23 |
| riotkittie | what are you copying and pasting to sbin? | 03:23 |
| astro76 | cake45, why do you need an inf in /sbin? | 03:23 |
| AnnonZi | Maybe what I was reading was outdated. Looking on the Apple Intel forums now. ;) | 03:23 |
| Roger_The_Bum | I get a "forbidden" error when trying to get the samba package via synaptic | 03:23 |
| astro76 | Roger_The_Bum, see the /topic | 03:24 |
| riotkittie | Roger_The_Bum: don't sweat it. AFAIK the upgrade was intentionally pulled. | 03:24 |
| Roger_The_Bum | wow | 03:24 |
| Roger_The_Bum | I read everything except for that | 03:24 |
| Roger_The_Bum | :D | 03:24 |
| riotkittie | lol | 03:24 |
| riotkittie | why do you need to put an inf in /sbin? | 03:24 |
| Burlynn | AnnonZi: you just run bootcamp, it resizes the hfs+ partition, giving you free space, and then you run the ubuntu cd. done. hold alt on bootup and bootcamp gives you the option of osx or 'windows' is what the other partition is called but its actually the ubuntu partition. mind you this is the bootcamp beta, may be -slightly- different if your running leopard but probably not much | 03:25 |

| cake45 | alright sorry :) | 03:27 |
| MattJ_ | Jangari: Transparent windows on Linux are rendered by your graphics card, which is 95% idle unless you are playing games | 03:27 |
| astro76 | Davao, it's invoke-rc.d | 03:27 |
| riotkittie | cake45: where is your inf file? forget about /sbin. make a dir in home. do you have anything other than the *.inf? like, the .sys (or is it the .bin.... i forget) | 03:27 |
| MattJ_ | Jangari: ie. if you have a decent graphics card, there is very little load on your CPU, slowing things down | 03:27 |
| stevenrushing_ | same problem... no window manager... | 03:27 |
| DShepherd | reya276, I am not sure how to do that. | 03:27 |

| steven_ | When I try to copy files to my hard drive I just added it says I don't have permission to access the disk. How can I permanently have permission to access it wihtout being root all the time? | 03:28 |
| AnnonZi | Burlynn, reading stuff it seems like not everything works out of the box. Wireless seems to be a problem with some of the newer models, along with some other things. But it seems like most of this relates to MacBooks and MacBook Pros. I can't find a guide for Mac minis. | 03:28 |

| cake45 | gksudo Nautilus speaker! | 03:29 |
| riotkittie | i'd make a /driver folder in ~ but thats just me | 03:29 |
| SpeakerMania | sipsipclick, nope. What do you mean store my user data? | 03:30 |
| cake45 | alright | 03:30 |
| gravemind | peterbecker: yeah, that happense to me also | 03:30 |
| zeus09 | hi all, need some help with ubuntu, if i check the system moniter, under resources, the network history says more than 5GB as sent, should i be worried about this ???? | 03:30 |
| sipsipclick | stevenrushing_, try control-alt-f3 or f4 or f6 | 03:30 |
| cake45 | wait wheres ~? would home/justin/driver work? | 03:30 |
| MattJ_ | SpeakerMania: Where on your hard disk? | 03:30 |
| stevenrushing_ | that worked... | 03:30 |
| sipsipclick | stevenrushing_, and you've got a problem with a usb device btw | 03:30 |
| riotkittie | cake45: ~ is your home dir | 03:30 |
| cake45 | ah | 03:30 |
| SpeakerMania | Mattj, I ahve two hard drives. The one I am trying to copy files to is NOT my main disk. | 03:31 |
| gravemind | peterbecker: I didn't see the topic either, I guess we just have to wait for it to be fixed | 03:31 |
| zeus09 | hi all, need some help with ubuntu, if i check the system moniter, under resources, the network history says more than 5GB as sent, should i be worried about this ???? | 03:31 |
| SpeakerMania | have | 03:31 |
| MattJ_ | zeus09: Well, are you uploading anything knowingly? | 03:31 |
| Burlynn | AnnonZi: you have to use the madwifi drivers for wireless. I would find out if the mini uses the same chipset for wireless as the macbooks (atheros). IMO the wireless drivers are severly lacking, so take that into consideration. I get random drops in my house for no reason and im running a N class network, shouldnt happen. Doesnt happen in OSX. | 03:31 |
| techII | on this laptop running gutsy, the speakers are not muted when headphones are plugged in. No option appears in alsamixer to enable it. "Device Manager" reports: "ATI Technologies Inc" "SBx00 Azalia" | 03:31 |
| astro76 | zeus09, please don't repeat.. what are you running that would upload? | 03:31 |
| riotkittie | then sudo depmod -a; sudo modprobe ndiswrapper .... and sudo ndiswrapper -i /path/to/driver then ndiswrapper -l | 03:31 |

| Burlynn | AnnonZi: btw the madwifi drivers are not installed out of the box so wireless wont work till you get a connect via wired or whatever and download them | 03:31 |
| stevenrushing_ | when i went startx, it loaded up, but still no windo manager, and no errors | 03:32 |
| heartylisa | hi | 03:32 |
| prappl93 | Hello | 03:32 |
| zeus09 | nope | 03:32 |
| heartylisa | prapp | 03:32 |
| prappl93 | ? | 03:32 |
| heartylisa | hello | 03:32 |
| riotkittie | stevenrushing_: alt + f2 and type metacity --replace .... which wm are you using? | 03:32 |
| prappl93 | I need help upgrading to Ubuntu 7.10 | 03:32 |
| heartylisa | okay | 03:33 |
| MattJ_ | zeus09: Install iftop, it runs it Terminal, but it shows what your network is doing | 03:33 |
| Lord_MuffloN^ | When I open a file via gedit, is it intentional that I can't see what have been written earlier in the file or have something gone wrong? | 03:33 |
| techII | it seems to be using "snd_hda_intel" for its driver | 03:33 |
| AnnonZi | Well, I'm not overly worried about the wireless part. I want to use the Mac mini as a file server, so wireless isn't something I plan to use. | 03:33 |
| zeus09 | as soon as i connect to the internet, it starts, e.g i have been online for about two hours and it allready says sent in exess of 6 GB | 03:33 |
| AnnonZi | I just wanted to be able to dual-boot Ubuntu and OS X 1.5.1 without any real problems. I need pretty much everything to work (except wireless). | 03:34 |
| prappl93 | Every time I try to get the updates that I need before the upgrade, it keeps saying that I do not have permission to connect to the servers that I need to get the files from | 03:34 |
| zeus09 | thanks how do i do that, new to linux | 03:34 |
| MattJ_ | Lord_MuffloN^: You should be able to see what is in the file | 03:34 |
| stevenrushing_ | houston, i have a window manager | 03:34 |
| MattJ_ | Lord_MuffloN^: Unless the file is empty | 03:34 |
| stevenrushing_ | will i have to do that every time? | 03:34 |
| Lord_MuffloN^ | It ain't | 03:34 |
| zeus09 | MattJ_: how do i do that | 03:34 |
| cake45 | kittie justin@ubuntu3:~/Desktop/ndiswrapper-1.49$ sudo ndiswrapper -i ~/justin/wdriver | 03:34 |

| Lord_MuffloN^ | It is sudo gedit /path/path | 03:35 |
| MattJ_ | zeus09: Open Terminal, type: sudo apt-get install iftop | 03:35 |
| Lord_MuffloN^ | Correct? | 03:35 |
| riotkittie | cake45: how'd you install ndiswrapper? | 03:35 |
| Burlynn | AnnonZi: what OS are you going to use to access it? Everything should work otherwise. there's a small config for the mouse so you can right click etc but no big deal. graphics worked fine for me with the integrated intel on the macbook. | 03:35 |
| MattJ_ | zeus09: Then enter your password, and wait for it to finish | 03:35 |
| cake45 | oh whoops 2 /justins | 03:35 |
| Haemoth | I added the source for irssi to sources.list, but it's not showing up in the repositories | 03:35 |
| stevenrushing_ | riotkitty, will i have to do that all the time? is it fixed? | 03:35 |
| prappl93 | I need help... | 03:35 |
| DShepherd | cake45, don't paste in here next time use the pastebin | 03:35 |

| zeus09 | great, iam on it | 03:36 |
| * prappl93 needs help | 03:36 | |
| Flannel | Haemoth: The source for irssi? what? | 03:36 |
| MattJ_ | stevenrushing_: You are using Gutsy? | 03:36 |
| Burlynn | Anyone seen this error on gutsy with frostwire? It hangs on frostwire's splash screen? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/44832/ | 03:36 |
| stevenrushing_ | yes yes | 03:36 |
| zeus09 | MattJ_: done now ? | 03:36 |
| Nutubuntu | I upgraded from Feisty to Gutsy and I'm regretting it. Gnome is messed up; it only runs in low-res ... I'm very glad I installed other window managers. How do I troubleshoot an upgrade that didn't do too well ? | 03:36 |
| Haemoth | Flannel: No, I mean the url... Don't know what its called | 03:36 |
| MattJ_ | stevenrushing_: Disable desktop effects in System->Preferences->Appearance | 03:36 |
| Haemoth | Whatever it is that you add to sources.list | 03:36 |
| Flannel | Haemoth: What are you trying to ultimately accomplish? | 03:36 |
| MattJ_ | zeus09: How do you connect to the internet? Through a router? | 03:37 |
| stevenrushing_ | already set to none | 03:37 |
| riotkittie | Nutubuntu: for the resolution thing, have you tried to reconfig xserver-xorg or manually edit xorg.conf ? | 03:37 |
| Haemoth | Flannel: I added deb http://www.davidpashley.com/debian/irssi-sarge/ ./ | 03:37 |
| cake45 | kittie I could have messed up the install...but I ran the last command with the .inf correctly and it said "forcing parameter IBSSGMode from 0 to 2" a ton of times | 03:37 |
| Nutubuntu | riotkittie, yes - both | 03:37 |
| Haemoth | Flannel: I want the new version of irssi | 03:37 |
| zeus09 | MattJ_: yes | 03:37 |
| prappl93 | Can anyone help me get Gutsy? | 03:37 |
| MattJ_ | stevenrushing_: Then really it shouldn't happen again | 03:37 |
| MattJ_ | zeus09: Do you know what the interface is called? eth0? | 03:37 |
| zeus09 | eth1 | 03:38 |
| prappl93 | :/ | 03:38 |
| Nutubuntu | riotkittie, dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg was not a good thing to do; the interface was messed up and it set peculiar values for keyboard and refresh rates etc. | 03:38 |
| MattJ_ | Right | 03:38 |
| zeus09 | MattJ_: eth1 | 03:38 |
| stevenrushing_ | thanks peoples | 03:38 |

| mudore | how to mount a photo card on ubuntu? | 03:38 |
| MattJ_ | zeus09: You will see all the connections, and the ones at the top will be the ones with the most activity | 03:38 |
| Nutubuntu | I am not sure if I am in low res mode or not at the moment; can't run Gnome without it hanging after a minute or so | 03:38 |
| cake45 | this good? bcmwl5 : driver installed | 03:39 |
| cake45 | device (14E4:4328) present | 03:39 |
| techII | anyone know anything about headphone jack sense not showing up with "snd_hda_intel"? | 03:39 |
| Alasseo[Laptop2 | mudore: are you using a laptop cardreader? | 03:39 |
| zeus09 | MattJ_: yes i do | 03:39 |
| Haemoth | !prevu | 03:39 |
| ubotu | prevu is an automated, personal backporting utility. Check out https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Prevu for more details | 03:39 |
| crimsun | techII: it's only supposed to appear for a subset of AC'97-based codecs. | 03:39 |
| prappl93 | I need to upgrade 7.04 to 7.10 but 3 files will not download, stating that I do not have permission to access the servers, why? | 03:39 |
| MattJ_ | zeus09: Is there any particular connection at the top? It should appear more coloured in when it is active | 03:39 |
| sylvar | Hi folks. I've got an installation of 7.10 in which the System>Administration menu seems to be missing all the options that are alphabetically before Keyring Manager. | 03:39 |
| techII | crimsun: thanks | 03:40 |
| sylvar | Is there a way to check whether the other admin tools are, in fact, installed? I wouldn't know what package name to look for. | 03:40 |
| Burlynn | prappl93: bad files for everyone. they are trying to fix it. | 03:40 |
| prappl93 | Burlynn: thanks | 03:40 |
| MattJ_ | sylvar: Wow, never seen that before... | 03:40 |
| astro76 | sylvar, have you checked to see if they are disabled in the menu editor? right click on the menu and select edit menus... | 03:40 |
| Flannel | sylvar: If ubuntu-desktop is installed, then whatever package they are in will be installed | 03:40 |
| cake45 | riotkittie....bcmwl5 : driver installed | 03:40 |
| cake45 | device (14E4:4328) present | 03:40 |
| cake45 | looks good but iwconfig doesnt list anything?!?!!? | 03:40 |
| prappl93 | Burlynn: do you know when they MIGHT be up? | 03:40 |
| sylvar | OK, trying some of those ideas... | 03:41 |
| Nutubuntu | How do I reinstall Gnome so that it works again? basic things like gnome-terminal are not working right now ... | 03:41 |
| sylvar | astro76: In the menu editor, they're not listed at all under System>Administration. | 03:41 |
| MattJ_ | Nutubuntu: Odd... I had a similar problem today... I think a restart fixed it | 03:41 |
| prappl93 | Nutubuntu: did you have programs running when you installed? | 03:41 |
| Alasseo[Laptop2 | slyvar: I do too, never played with Ubuntu before so I didn't even think about it. | 03:41 |
| kazol3 | Can someone recommend me a DVD ripping app besides mplayer, AcidRip, and dvd::rip? | 03:41 |
| Alasseo[Laptop2 | not listed under menu editor for me either | 03:42 |
| Nutubuntu | prappl93, nothing else running but the upgrade tool | 03:42 |
| Flannel | !dvd | kazol3 | 03:42 |
| ubotu | kazol3: For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at !Medibuntu or (for Feisty and earlier) http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs | 03:42 |
| cake45 | i am really frustrated...must have spent 2 hours on this wireless card! | 03:42 |
| Nutubuntu | MattJ_, have restarted (had to, it locked up altogether) - no luck :/ | 03:42 |
| Alasseo[Laptop2 | I'm running clean install of 71.0 on an acer aspire 5720 | 03:42 |
| zeus09 | MattJ_: all have my ip address, but i dont understand the rese | 03:42 |
| prappl93 | Nutubuntu: I was thinking maybe you had some programs open during upgrade which might have caused problems, but that is obviously not it | 03:42 |
| kazol3 | Flannel: Do I have to install libdvdcss2 before using these ripping apps? | 03:42 |
| Nutubuntu | prappl93, actually, maybe you're right - I think I had firefox up | 03:42 |
| astro76 | kazol3, yes you will need it | 03:43 |
| zeus09 | MattJ_: now there is only one, i think it is the one that says ircd | 03:43 |
| Burlynn | prappl93: no idea. hopefully soon. everyone's got update-manager icon going saying we need to upgrade it and they are broken for now for everybody. wait and see i guess. | 03:43 |
| astro76 | kazol3, unless the dvds are unencrypted | 03:43 |
| MattJ_ | zeus09: Then that is your connection to here | 03:43 |
| cake45 | riotkittie are you around/have any advice? | 03:43 |
| prappl93 | Burlynn: Okay, I was going to make a live cd and upgrade that way | 03:43 |
| Nutubuntu | prappl93, I'm not so much concerned about why this happened (I haven't had an upgrade yet that wasn't "interesting") - just want to fix it :) | 03:43 |
| MattJ_ | zeus09: If that is the one at the top, nothing else seems to be creating traffic | 03:44 |
| Burlynn | prappl93: installing fresh or updating from another version? | 03:44 |
| sylvar | hmm, according to dpkg -l | grep package, I *do* have hal-device-manager installed, it's just not listed in the menu editor (or on the menu). | 03:44 |
| kazol3 | astro76: I get: "Package libdvdcss2 is not available, but is referred to by another package." | 03:44 |
| Shadix | what are the commands to copy my xorg.conf to my removable hdd in terminal? | 03:44 |
| cake45 | guess I cant have it and eat it too? | 03:44 |
| zeus09 | Mattj_:hmm, but then,where is the computer sending data, now sent = 6.5GB | 03:44 |
| prappl93 | Burlynn: Upgrading | 03:45 |
| nickrud | cake45: as long as you don't eat it all, yes | 03:45 |
| Haemoth | I added deb http://www.davidpashley.com/debian/irssi-sarge/ ./ to sources.list but it's not showing up in synaptic. Please help | 03:45 |
| astro76 | kazol3, have you added the medibuntu repo? directions here... | 03:45 |
| Burlynn | prappl93: okay FYI you have to use the alternative cd to upgrade from a lower version. the livecd wont work. | 03:45 |
| noob69 | ? can i install applications besides SAMBA even though theres still a update problem | 03:45 |
| astro76 | !medibuntu | kazol3 | 03:45 |
| ubotu | kazol3: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org | 03:45 |
| kazol3 | astro76: Is it because hosting the package on a US server is illegal? | 03:45 |
| sylvar | Is it normal to get 403 Forbidden from security.ubuntu.com when trying to upgrade samba? | 03:45 |
| Ex-Cyber | if I try to drag a bunch of files to the CD/DVD Creator window, Nautilus seems to lock up... is there some kind of workaround besides just using growisofs directly? | 03:45 |
| cake45 | whats the next step to setup ndis wrapper....iwconfig wont recongize it | 03:45 |
| Nutubuntu | What are the chances that uninstalling and then reinstalling ubuntu-desktop will get Gnome back to normal? | 03:45 |
| cake45 | !403 | 03:45 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about 403 - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 03:45 |
| stevenrushing_ | The issue does replicate itself the next time i log on (in fact, it wouldnt let me log off or restart, i had to hard restart) | 03:45 |
| nickrud | Haemoth: you'd need to hit the reload button, but what's wrong with the irssi in the repos | 03:45 |
| zeus09 | Mattj_: i am using firestarter as well, that has the same information, moreover the system keeps uploading even if i use lockdown firewall | 03:46 |
| Burlynn | Nutubuntu: none | 03:46 |
| astro76 | kazol3, I really don't know what the laws are currently, except that it's been judged perfectly legal to use to watch dvds | 03:46 |
| Nutubuntu | Burlynn, drat :/ sorry to hear that. How then? | 03:46 |
| stevenrushing_ | i know this is an issue with my nvidia 5500 video card or xorg.conf somehow | 03:46 |
| Haemoth | nickrud: I did update, but it's not showing up. I want the new version of irssi. | 03:46 |
| prappl93 | Nutubuntu: Ah, I am *new* to Ubuntu, so I am trying to bear some ground on here.... | 03:46 |
| cake45 | !ping | 03:46 |
| ubotu | pong | 03:46 |
| ifco | hahah | 03:46 |
| zeus09 | Mattj_: should i reinstall the system | 03:46 |
| sipsipclick | !pong | 03:46 |
| zeus09 | ? | 03:46 |
| ubotu | pong is an old atari game. It's fun! | 03:46 |
| MattJ_ | zeus09: No idea... is there any other way of confirming that your system is sending? ie. flashing lights on your network cable or router? | 03:46 |
| noob69 | or should i wait till the security update is fix | 03:46 |
| nickrud | Haemoth: does any irssi show up? It's probably that one, try apt-cache policy in a terminal to double check | 03:46 |
| Flannel | sylvar: It is at the moment, yes. check the topic for details | 03:46 |

| zeus09 | Mattj_: the lights on the router are going crazy | 03:47 |
| Burlynn | Nutubuntu: i couldnt say. but ubuntu-desktop is just a meta-package, i.e. a package thats just a listing of other packages. but uninstalling it doesnt remove all the packages it installs. weird, i know. | 03:47 |
| MattJ_ | zeus09: :/ | 03:47 |
| astro76 | kazol3, that is correct | 03:47 |
| sylvar | Flannel++ | 03:47 |
| ifco | hey you know what happens if i do fixmbr from my super grub disk?? will i be able to use grub after then? | 03:47 |
| prappl93 | Does anyone know how I could get Wine to run a copy of the World of Warcraft download file all the way? | 03:47 |
| MattJ_ | zeus09: Can you copy/past (to pastebin) the iftop list? or take a screenshot if it? | 03:47 |
| cake45 | !Patience l everyone | 03:47 |
| Haemoth | nickrud: It says it's 0.8.11, not the new one I added | 03:47 |
| astro76 | kazol3, or maybe not even so much location anymore, but just not provided by ubuntu | 03:48 |
| nickrud | Haemoth: then try apt-get update, look for an error | 03:48 |
| Jangari | Kode: i'm on the routers config page, but it's going worrying slow | 03:48 |
| Nutubuntu | Ah ... I see. Burlynn - if I remove Gnome (based on psychocats.net's page, I think that's possible) and then install ubuntu-desktop ... ? | 03:48 |
| danbhfive | hey Nutubuntu | 03:48 |
| Nutubuntu | Hey there danbhfive | 03:48 |
| cake45 | If I'm stuck on wired internet for any longer I'm going back to Vista :( | 03:48 |
| nickrud | Haemoth: what you're looking for is two options for irssi in apt-cache policy | 03:48 |
| danbhfive | try sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop^ | 03:48 |
| prappl93 | cake45: You CAN run Wireless | 03:48 |
| danbhfive | ^ is intended | 03:48 |
| Haemoth | nickrud: I got no errors when I updated | 03:48 |
| cake45 | prappl ndiswrapper is making me want to kill | 03:48 |
| Nutubuntu | danbhfive, I don't think I understand | 03:48 |
| prappl93 | cake45: I am running a wireless former XP computer... you should be able to do it | 03:49 |
| danbhfive | sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop^ | 03:49 |
| Haemoth | nickrud: In apt-cache policy, I got a 500 before the url | 03:49 |
| danbhfive | type that last line into the command line | 03:49 |
| ifco | hey you know what happens if i do fixmbr from my super grub disk?? will i be able to use grub after then? because now i always get the grub loading stage1.5 error 21...... | 03:49 |
| nickrud | Haemoth: and the repos it said it checked, is the new repo listed | 03:49 |
| zeus09 | MattJ_: yup, but where is this pastebin ?? | 03:49 |
| Nutubuntu | Ah, I see. T/y danbhfive | 03:49 |
| MattJ_ | !paste > zeus09 | 03:49 |
| MattJ_ | zeus09: See the PM from ubotu | 03:49 |
| gravemind | cake45: what does ndiswrapper -l show? | 03:49 |
| prappl93 | Does anyone know how to run the WoW download file using Wine? I can get it started but it will not connect to the site to download! | 03:50 |
| sylvar | Where does the Menu Editor store its configuration? I'm trying to figure out why System>Administration seems to be missing the first half of the list of tools. | 03:50 |
| Burlynn | Nutubuntu: possible. i havent seen the instructions. though it may do nothing to fix it either if its just a configuration issue, | 03:50 |
| cake45 | gravemind device (14E4:4328) present | 03:50 |
| Haemoth | nickrud: I don't know that.. How do I check | 03:50 |
| Jangari | is using a wep key better than wpa? | 03:50 |
| Shadix | ARRRRRRRRGHHHHHH UBUNTU IS NINJAING ME TO DEATH!!!!! | 03:50 |
| MattJ_ | sylvar: In /usr/share/applications iirc, all applications are in .desktop files | 03:50 |
| gravemind | cake45: ok, you still have to install the drivers then. have you already tried this? | 03:50 |
| nickrud | Haemoth: you look at all the lines that scrolled by, see if the david... repo is listed | 03:51 |
| stevenrushing_ | ok, here is a question for you... i know i got this vid card working in feisty, back in june, july or august... is there a way to search to archives or something, to see if i can find the instructions there? | 03:51 |
| Shadix | GOOD NIGHT thanks to whomever helped me get this far. keeper open | 03:51 |
| cake45 | bcmwl5 : driver installed | 03:51 |
| cake45 | device (14E4:4328) present | 03:51 |
| MattJ_ | Jangari: WPA is more secure | 03:51 |
| Nutubuntu | Burlynn, I'm not sure where to start ... I think maybe if I get Gnome working, I can tackle configuration again. | 03:51 |
| stevenrushing_ | or does somone mind walking me through it again? | 03:51 |
| Haemoth | nickrud: In policy, yes it is listed | 03:51 |
| cake45 | bcmwl5 : driver installed means the driver is good gravemind? | 03:51 |
| danbhfive | Nutubuntu: did that commend do anything? | 03:51 |
| DoYouKnow | how do I install a red universe i386 package on ubuntu amd64? | 03:51 |
| danbhfive | *command | 03:51 |
| gravemind | cake45: yeah I didn't see that part! | 03:51 |
| nickrud | Haemoth: what priority does it have, is it higher than the ubuntu one? | 03:51 |
| buttercups | sylvar, missing icons in Administration could also mean you do not have administer the system privleages... | 03:51 |
| nickrud | or the same, Haemoth with a later revision number? | 03:52 |
| cake45 | alright whats next? Its not showing up in that iw thing | 03:52 |
| gravemind | cake45: if I remember correctly the next step is sudo modprobe ndiswrapper | 03:52 |
| Nutubuntu | danbhfive, interesting - I had (truly truly) run that cmd before and had nothing happen, but now it's fetching about 11MB of stuff ... mainly fonts, but also compiz-fusion, how about that ? :) | 03:52 |
| Alasseo[Laptop2 | buttercups: we're missing everything about keyring. it's bizzare | 03:52 |
| Haemoth | nickrud: I don't know the priority... Its listed before the ubuntu urls in policy | 03:52 |
| nickrud | Haemoth: if you're not sure what you're looking at, paste it on paste.ubuntu-nl.org | 03:52 |
| gravemind | cake45: then it should show up in iwconfig and network-manager if you're using it (but you're not done) | 03:52 |
| cake45 | gravemind...done no return;d info | 03:52 |
| gleaken | I have a VMWare server issue. Update Manager always says that there is a version of Server to upgrade. The two versions have the same version number (1.0.4-1feisty2) I tried un-installing and reinstalling, but to no avail. The only difference is when you look at the properties in Synaptic, one says (now) next to the version and the other says (feisty-commercial) | 03:52 |
| gravemind | cake45: no news is good news! | 03:52 |
| cake45 | its not there?!?!! | 03:52 |
| Nutubuntu | I'll be darned. Well, danbhfive, it's done its stuff. I'm going to try to restart X and see where things go from here. Hopefully they improve :) | 03:53 |
| sylvar | buttercups, are you saying that if I log on as root, I'd see the missing options? | 03:53 |
| danbhfive | Nutubuntu: you may have run sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop, without the carrot. I think adding the carrot makes it do something else. I just found it on a website somewhere :) | 03:53 |
| cake45 | justin@ubuntu3:~$ iwconfig | 03:53 |
| cake45 | lo no wireless extensions. | 03:53 |
| cake45 | eth0 no wireless extensions. | 03:53 |
| danbhfive | gl | 03:53 |
| gravemind | cake45: still nothing? darn | 03:53 |
| cake45 | kill me? | 03:53 |
| prappl93 | cake45: It should be eth1 as your wireless card | 03:53 |
| Haemoth | nickrud: http://www.nomorepasting.com/getpaste.php?pasteid=6786 | 03:53 |
| dbe | cake45: is the drivers properly installed? | 03:53 |
| greencookie | whassup people:) | 03:54 |
| cake45 | I thought so but I did it myself so maybe not | 03:54 |
| gravemind | prappl93: after he modprobes it should show up, right? | 03:54 |
| linxuz3r | hey greencookie | 03:54 |
| rm_you | anyone else having a problem with installing packages today? | 03:54 |
| linxuz3r | hey gravemind | 03:54 |
| cake45 | got the .exe from the list | 03:54 |
| linxuz3r | hey rm_you | 03:54 |
| prappl93 | gravemind: what are you talking about? | 03:54 |
| linxuz3r | hey cake45 | 03:54 |
| MattJ_ | rm_you: See the topic | 03:54 |
| linxuz3r | wassup | 03:54 |
| dbe | cake45: Try some command to test the driver. | 03:54 |
| nickrud | Haemoth: oh, doh, try apt-cache policy irssi , I wasn't real clear there sorry | 03:54 |
| cake45 | hello linx | 03:54 |
| rm_you | thank you :P | 03:54 |
| gravemind | prappl93: you have to modprobe ndiswrapper after you install the drivers | 03:54 |
| Lord_MuffloN^ | Okay, I got a HUGE problem, each time I reboot, the screen resolution resets :( | 03:54 |
| MattJ_ | rm_you: :) | 03:54 |
| gravemind | linxuz3r: hey | 03:54 |
| cake45 | dbe what would that be? | 03:54 |
| Nutubuntu | danbhfive, ubuntu-desktop^ isn't a pkg, as far as apt-get can tell | 03:54 |
| danbhfive | Nutubuntu: wait!!! | 03:54 |
| prappl93 | gravemind: bare with me, I am new to Ubuntu.. so I have no idea what that is... sorry | 03:54 |
| buttercups | sylvar, just saying It happens to users without admin privileges missing icons,but If you can install programs that would'nt be the problem | 03:54 |
| Nutubuntu | I'm here | 03:55 |
| dbe | cake45: That depends of the driver. Check the manual for instance. | 03:55 |
| Jangari | what's the command to connect again? iwconfig essid name [name] key [key]? | 03:55 |
| danbhfive | I just thought of something: run sudo apt-get install linux-generic | 03:55 |
| danbhfive | make sure thats installed to | 03:55 |
| cake45 | I extracted it from the xp driver from the ndiswrapper site | 03:55 |
| prappl93 | Gravemind: I only knew that should show up as eth1 because I ran a program that asked for what connection to use and that is the one that worked | 03:55 |
| danbhfive | (just from past experience) | 03:55 |
| Nutubuntu | linux-generic, danbhfive? | 03:55 |
| jbido | nadie habla espa;ol aqui.. | 03:56 |
| Haemoth | nickrud: http://www.nomorepasting.com/getpaste.php?pasteid=6787 | 03:56 |
| MattJ_ | !es | jbido | 03:56 |
| ubotu | jbido: Si busca ayuda en Español por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, allí obtendrá mas ayuda. | 03:56 |
| Nutubuntu | danbhfive, linux-generic's installed. | 03:56 |
| danbhfive | yeah, that other command doesn't include a valid kernel, sorry, I don't know the specifics of your problem, but I had trouble with this in the past | 03:56 |
| gravemind | prappl93: yeah, sometimes it's eth1, but mine is ath0. the important part is after installing the drivers, you have to start using them by doing "sudo modprobe ndiswrapper" | 03:56 |
| danbhfive | ok, then you should be fine | 03:56 |
| Nutubuntu | Okay ... here we go ... thanks danbhfive :) | 03:56 |
| DoYouKnow | I want to get supercollider running in ubuntu, and it's a universe package highlighted in red. How do I get this working? | 03:56 |
| danbhfive | ok, gl :) | 03:56 |
| DoYouKnow | it's also i386 | 03:57 |
| prappl93 | gravemind: I didn't have to install drivers, it just started working | 03:57 |
| Squalish | Question: What might explain my ability to play SOME xvid-codec .avi files, and not others? All of them work on my windows machine in mplayerC, and I've run out of packages to install to make it work on my ubuntu box | 03:57 |
| DoYouKnow | vs my 64-bit platform | 03:57 |
| greencookie | Have you had your cup of irssi today? :) | 03:57 |
| prappl93 | Squalish: In the Add/Remove programs button under Applications, see if you can find a thing that will play all video files. I found one on there browsing | 03:57 |
| Haemoth | nickrud: Is the priority right? | 03:57 |
| === nemo_work is now known as nemo_home | ||
| dbe | Squalish: mplayerC != mplayer? | 03:58 |
| nickrud | Haemoth: now that is very strange, .8.10 is available from david, 8.11 from ubuntu, but you have .8.12 installed | 03:58 |
| gravemind | prappl93: if only cake's would do that :P | 03:58 |
| DoYouKnow | oh, I got it | 03:58 |
| DoYouKnow | nm | 03:58 |
| stevenrushing_ | how do i open my xorg.conf in gedit? | 03:58 |
| cake45 | lol gravemind | 03:58 |
| Squalish | dbe: Correct, mplayerC is a free player for win32 | 03:58 |
| prappl93 | gravemind: exactly! Lol | 03:58 |
| dbe | Squalish: Try VLC. | 03:58 |
| Jangari | alright, i'm on! | 03:58 |
| adorablepuppy | VLC is excellent. | 03:58 |
| Haemoth | nickrud: The one I have is compiled from source which I'll remove. I'm only using it to come to this channel. I need the one from the new repositories, 0.8.12 | 03:59 |
| dbe | Squalish: VLC has the codes your looking for implemented. | 03:59 |
| MattJ_ | stevenrushing_: Alt+F2, gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 03:59 |
| greencookie | stevenrushing_:sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 03:59 |
| cake45 | anyone have any last ideas..I'm about ready to go back to vista but I really dont want to...I basically need wireless | 03:59 |
| dbe | Squalish: codes/codecs/ | 03:59 |
| Squalish | prappl + dbe: I've installed Totem movie player, Mplayer, Kaffeine player, and VLC. Kaffeine just plays the audio, no picture, and the other three simply crash and close themselves | 03:59 |
| SilentDis | hello :) | 03:59 |
| gravemind | cake45: have you tried using any ndiswrapper guides or how-tos? they might help | 03:59 |
| Alasseo[Laptop2 | sylvar: Any updates on issue? | 03:59 |
| acalbaza | question... what is the ubuntu way of setting your path variable at shell startup (bash)? | 03:59 |
| greencookie | what does gksudo do MattJ_ howz it different from sudo?:) | 03:59 |
| nickrud | Haemoth: you created an equivs package for your compiled irssi? | 03:59 |
| stevenrushing_ | gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 03:59 |
| stevenrushing_ | crap | 03:59 |
| stevenrushing_ | =) | 03:59 |
| MattJ_ | greencookie: It's graphical :) | 03:59 |
| cake45 | yes I read the sourceforge article | 03:59 |
| dbe | Squalish: There should not be a problem with VLC. Check your drivers. | 03:59 |
| Haemoth | nickrud: No I didnt | 04:00 |
| gravemind | cake45: let me find something for you to try | 04:00 |
| prappl93 | Does ANYONE know when those files will be public?! | 04:00 |
| cake45 | thanks you gravemind | 04:00 |
| MilitantPotato | Hey all, my volume up and down keys register, but I can't bind them. | 04:00 |
| stevenrushing_ | it keeps telling me "cannot open display" | 04:00 |
| MattJ_ | prappl93: No, we don't... patience | 04:00 |
| greencookie | MattJ_: Oh! ok. cool, so if I wanna edit any root privileged docs, i simply alt+f2 and gksudo edit? | 04:00 |
| SilentDis | HALP! :) could someone point me in the direction of how to format a bootdisk, and put the utils on it to do a bios flash? I had mine die on me, and I have no windows install anywhere on my network. | 04:00 |
| MattJ_ | greencookie: Sure, you can start any graphical app as root that way | 04:01 |
| nickrud | Haemoth: well, you got a 8.12 deb from somewhere already, that's what is installed. It's not listed in either repo, that's why it has a separate listing under status | 04:01 |
| sylvar | buttercups and Alasseo[Laptop2: I tried logging in as root, but root isn't allowed to log in from that screen. I have no problem reading the contents of /usr/share/applications/*.desktop (they're owned by root but they're mode 644). | 04:01 |
| Squalish | dbe + prappl93: Would drivers explain my ability to play some xvid files, and not others? | 04:01 |
| gleaken | I have a VMWare server issue. Update Manager always says that there is a version of Server to upgrade. The two versions have the same version number (1.0.4-1feisty2) I tried un-installing and reinstalling, but to no avail. The only difference is when you look at the properties in Synaptic, one says (now) next to the version and the other says (feisty-commercial) | 04:01 |
| greencookie | stevenrushing_: go ctrl alt f1 and log in and sudo vi /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 04:01 |
| Haemoth | nickrud: I used checkinstall. I tried to install from apt-get after removing this one, but it's getting the old one | 04:01 |
| astro76 | acalbaza, ~/.profile | 04:01 |
| greencookie | stevenrushing_: hope you have run vimtutorial:) | 04:01 |
| buttercups | sylvar, are you able to install programs, does sudo work? | 04:01 |
| dbe | Squalish: I dont have a clue but VLC has never ever messed with my system. | 04:01 |
| kazol3 | Anyone here familiar with AcidRip? It isn't working for me. | 04:01 |
| gill | join #torontogamejam | 04:01 |
| sylvar | buttercups: sudo works fine. | 04:02 |
| acalbaza | thanks | 04:02 |
| nickrud | Haemoth: ah, ok. clear now. But your sarge repo from david only has 8.10, you probably need the unstable/sid version | 04:02 |
| gill | sorry | 04:02 |
| adorablepuppy | Ok. I'm trying to setup a media box. I got a 500 GB hard drive and ripped all my DVD's onto it as ISOs. I mounted them to directories and shared the directories with samba. But I can't find any tool that'll play a network folder. | 04:02 |
| sylvar | buttercups: I was also able to install about 45 updates in Package Manager | 04:02 |
| prappl93 | Sqaulish: I am not entitled to say because I am a "newbie" to Ubuntu... sorry... I just knew there were those video players out there | 04:02 |
| SilentDis | anyone have a floppy image of a windows/dos boot disk perhaps? that should work for me :) | 04:02 |
| Burlynn | adorablepuppy: well you actually need a program to play iso's, right? | 04:03 |
| Squalish | prappl93 + dbe: thanks anyway. Any idea what type of drivers I should be checking? | 04:03 |
| Haemoth | nickrud: Okay there is a sid version.. How do I use that? | 04:03 |
| Dr_willis | adorablepuppy, how are you accessing the directory? use a tool like the fusesmb tools so they mount as a normal directory, is what i do for my videos. | 04:03 |
| gnubie | cake45, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs have you looked here? | 04:03 |
| nickrud | Haemoth: change your sources entry to use the sid repo | 04:03 |
| Haemoth | nickrud: Just replace sarge with sid? | 04:03 |
| adorablepuppy | Dr_Willis: I want to access it with smb://mybox/Movie | 04:03 |
| prappl93 | Squalish: refer to previous comment | 04:03 |
| nickrud | Haemoth: don't know, the web page should say. Each repo does it it's own way | 04:03 |
| Dr_willis | adorablepuppy, that wont work. - use the fusesmb tools and mount the share somewhere like /home/user/network | 04:04 |
| cake45 | yes gnubie...they all start with the wireless card detected | 04:04 |
| MattJ_ | SilentDis: Not to hand I don't, maybe http://www.freedos.org/ ? | 04:04 |
| Squalish | prappl93 + dbe: k | 04:04 |
| Dr_willis | adorablepuppy, not all programs can handle the smb:// type urls | 04:04 |
| adorablepuppy | Will I be able to access it remotely? | 04:04 |
| danbhfive | adorable: have you tried VLC? | 04:04 |
| Burlynn | Squalish: are you running gutsy? did totem prompt you to install a codec if you are when trying to play it? | 04:04 |
| SilentDis | MattJ_ I'll go check that out, it should work, thank you :) | 04:04 |
| Dr_willis | adorablepuppy, with fusesmb or mounting the shares with mount, yes. | 04:04 |
| Dr_willis | adorablepuppy, of course Im not sure what can play a .iso file | 04:04 |
| Squalish | Burlynn: Yes, gutsy. Totem did not prompt me. | 04:05 |
| adorablepuppy | Dr_Willis, the ISO's are mounted to directories. | 04:05 |
| Burlynn | Dr_willis: well vlc for one | 04:05 |
| sylvar | buttercups: I'm feeling lost here. How on earth can Menu Editor lose track of half the System>Administration tools? | 04:05 |
| buttercups | sylvar, I came in late, have you tried edit menus, revert option? | 04:05 |
| adorablepuppy | VLC can play them, as long as I refer to the directory on my local machine. | 04:05 |
| Dr_willis | adorablepuppy, the set up where they are mounted to as a samba share., and use the fusesmb tools is one way.. | 04:05 |
| Burlynn | Squalish: are they high def xvid? h264 or anything? | 04:05 |
| Dr_willis | vlc will think its local :) | 04:05 |
| sylvar | buttercups: I've tried it now. No dice. | 04:05 |
| adorablepuppy | Dr_willis: Ok, I'll try it | 04:05 |
| Squalish | Burlynn: the one that won't work is labelled XviD@1000x760_mp3@160.avi | 04:06 |
| magic_ninja | if i simply log in to an xfce session rather then gnome will i get better performance | 04:06 |
| Squalish | Burlynn: but it works fine on MplayerC on win32 box | 04:06 |
| D-Elite | http://www.gnome-look.org/content/preview.php?preview=1&id=65578&file1=65578-1.png&file2=&file3=&name=Vista%20Incapable%20Stickers%20%28Designed%20for%29 | 04:06 |
| D-Elite | lol | 04:06 |
| Burlynn | Squalish: hmm no idea then. usually the high def ones are labeled with 'h264' or the like | 04:07 |
| Squalish | Burlynn: thx anyway | 04:07 |
| magic_ninja | !xfce | 04:07 |
| gravemind | cake45: try this one | 04:07 |
| ubotu | xubuntu is Ubuntu with Xfce instead of Gnome. For more info, see http://www.xubuntu.org and http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/ - To install from Ubuntu: "sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop". | For support, see #xubuntu | See also: !ubuntu and !xubuntu-channels | 04:07 |

| einnar | hello. how does one ask for help here, just blurt out what's not working? :) | 04:08 |
| MattJ_ | einnar: Yep :) | 04:08 |
| sylvar | einnar: Blurt thoughtfully, but yes. | 04:08 |
| magic_ninja | einnar and try to give as many details as possible | 04:08 |
| nickrud | magic_ninja: somewhate, although people who use xfce a lot says not as much as you should | 04:08 |
| magic_ninja | nickrud: well cs keeps randomly locking up and its getting old | 04:08 |
| Burlynn | Anyone seen this error on gutsy with frostwire? It hangs on frostwire's splash screen? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/44832/ | 04:08 |
| nickrud | magic_ninja: cs? | 04:09 |
| cake45 | gravemind thats what I was reading!!!!!!!! | 04:09 |
| magic_ninja | nickrud counter-strike | 04:09 |
| Nutubuntu | danbhfive, no luck ... gnome not working, and stuck in low-res again | 04:09 |
| magic_ninja | Nutubuntu: did you just install/upgrade | 04:09 |
| jordan | Is it possible to put a terminal command in and have a gnome session pop up an ERROR with CUSTOM text? | 04:09 |
| nickrud | ah, yeah, run something like fluxbox when you run games, it is much lower footprint than either gnome or xfce | 04:10 |
| nickrud | magic_ninja: ^^ | 04:10 |
| Nutubuntu | magic_ninja, this was an upgrade from Feisty to Gutsy | 04:10 |
| DoYouKnow | actually that didn't work | 04:10 |
| sylvar | OK, I know the *.desktop files are in /usr/share/applications, and they're world-readable. The .desktop files for System>Administration items that DO appear are in /usr/share/applications, but the .desktop files for System>Administration items that DO NOT appear are also in /usr/share/applications. So I'm guessing it's not the mere presence of a file that causes that item to appear in the menu. | 04:10 |
| gravemind | cake45: try it again and when you're done, pastebin the output - maybe we can find out what went wrong | 04:10 |
| ninina | Yay Ubuntu is working | 04:10 |
| DoYouKnow | so how do I force an i386 package to install on ubuntu? | 04:10 |
| gravemind | cake45: don't skip anything! | 04:10 |
| DoYouKnow | 64-bit | 04:10 |
| einnar | very cool. I have no sound. I'm using a shuttle SN25P, with what is being reported as a Multimedia audio controller: VIA Technologies Inc. VT1720/24 [Envy24PT/HT] PCI Multi-Channel Audio Controller (rev 01). This is a fresh install, latest ubuntu, fully patched. | 04:10 |
| MattJ_ | jordan: Look at zenity | 04:10 |
| cake45 | whats the output? | 04:10 |
| magic_ninja | Nutubuntu: the problem is your graphics card drivers with the kernel update, please give me your proc specifics i had to do the same thing | 04:10 |
| magic_ninja | Nutubuntu: are you new, or have a pretty good idea of whats going on | 04:10 |
| changelog | einnar, lsmod | grep snd | 04:10 |
| gravemind | cake45: the writing in terminal that happens when you do stuff | 04:10 |
| nickrud | DoYouKnow: what package, and why do you need to force it? the general method is sudo dpkg -i --force-<options> | 04:11 |
| gravemind | cake45: just copy everything terminal says and pastebin it | 04:11 |
| danbhfive | Nutubuntu: hmmm, an upgrade, eh? Here are some other commands to try: | 04:11 |
| Nutubuntu | magic_ninja, I'm about half past new ... proc specifics meaning CPU? if so, A64 X2 | 04:11 |
| jordan | mattj thank you | 04:11 |
| DoYouKnow | nickrud: it's supercollider | 04:11 |
| danbhfive | sudo apt-get install -f | 04:11 |
| gravemind | !pastebin | cake45 | 04:11 |
| ubotu | cake45: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic) | 04:11 |
| buttercups | sylvar, maybe try deleting the menu bar from panel, then right click add to panel menu bar again | 04:11 |
| nickrud | DoYouKnow: but why do you need to force it? | 04:11 |
| einnar | changelog : what part of that do you want me to paste in? | 04:11 |
| gunashekar | hi | 04:11 |
| cake45 | what output | 04:11 |
| danbhfive | sudo apt-get distupgrade | 04:11 |
| danbhfive | *dist-upgrade | 04:11 |
| DoYouKnow | nickrud, because it's old and for i386 only | 04:11 |
| gravemind | cake45: the writing in terminal that happens when you do stuff | 04:12 |
| magic_ninja | Nutubuntu: do you know how to pick the correct restricted modules for your kernel (with the kernel upgrade your restricted modules in use by your graphics card driver aren't matching and thats why the driver isn't working), do you use nvidia or ati | 04:12 |
| greencookie | Do i need a screensaver if I'm using only tty and not gdm? | 04:12 |
| Nutubuntu | magic_ninja, nvidia - an onboard 6150 | 04:12 |
| DoYouKnow | nickrud: I am having trouble compiling the newer version of the tool from source | 04:12 |
| DoYouKnow | it's an audio app | 04:12 |
| nickrud | DoYouKnow: oh, you're running 64 bit then, different problems than what I'm familiar with, don't run it | 04:12 |
| goatz | How do you mount a nfs share? I've exported the share on another box and allowed this ip, but... now what? | 04:12 |
| magic_ninja | Nutubuntu: okay fire up synaptic package manager | 04:12 |
| Nutubuntu | magic_ninja, got it | 04:12 |
| MattJ_ | greencookie: No... and the tty usually blanks after a while, like a screensaver | 04:12 |
| cake45 | ah | 04:13 |
| magic_ninja | do a search string "nvidia" without quotes | 04:13 |
| Nutubuntu | okay magic_ninja | 04:13 |
| danbhfive | magic_ninja: why not just use the restricted drivers manager? | 04:13 |
| kevin | ubotu | 04:13 |
| sylvar | buttercups: No luck. And now the Menu Bar is to the right of my Firefox and Evolution icons. *sigh* | 04:13 |
| changelog | einnar, all of it? | 04:13 |
| magic_ninja | danbhfive: with the problems he is having it won't work | 04:14 |
| MattJ_ | sylvar: You can drag it with your middle button | 04:14 |
| magic_ninja | danbhfive: i had the exact same issues | 04:14 |
| einnar | changelog: I sent you the output in private chat. | 04:14 |
| danbhfive | mmk | 04:14 |
| kevin | how can i ask ubotu a question? | 04:14 |
| buttercups | sylvar, thats ok right click and move it to the left of firefox | 04:14 |
| Hoss | unlock it from the taskbar first though | 04:14 |
| MattJ_ | !ubotu | kevin | 04:14 |
| DRtuxthepenguin | !bsd | 04:14 |
| ubotu | kevin: I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots | 04:14 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about bsd - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 04:14 |
| DRtuxthepenguin | !freebsd | 04:15 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about freebsd - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 04:15 |
| sylvar | MattJ_ and buttercups: thanks, got it in its right place. Still nothing above Keyring Manager, though! | 04:15 |
| nickrud | sylvar: you can revert to the original panels with, in a terminal, gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel ; but unlocking the other icons might help | 04:15 |
| greencookie | MattJ_: ah cool. | 04:15 |
| magic_ninja | Nutubuntu: now remove the selected linux-restricted modules package (aka the one with the green box meaning its installed), but wait there is more | 04:15 |
| Nutubuntu | magic_ninja, got it ... what am I looking for? I see linux-restricted-modules-2.7.20-16-generic and 22-14-generic both are installed | 04:15 |
| MattJ_ | sylvar: I reeallly have no idea... it's the oddest problem :/ | 04:15 |
| MattJ_ | sylvar: Especially since you are not alone with it | 04:15 |
| magic_ninja | Nutubuntu: linux-restricted-modules-2.6.22-14-generic | 04:15 |
| ninina | anyone know if there is a desklet that lets you create and set timers to alert you after X time? | 04:15 |
| Ely | Is there a way to make it so when I open certain applications (ie: Firefox) they always open on the same screen position they were when I close them and open them the next time? for some reason some apps always open on the top left of my screen. | 04:16 |
| sylvar | nickrud: well, that got rid of the GNOME panel, now how do I bring it back? | 04:16 |
| magic_ninja | thats the ONLY one you want installed | 04:16 |
| Ely | Ubuntu here | 04:16 |
| MattJ_ | ninina: Yes, I have it... let me check what it is called | 04:16 |
| nickrud | sylvar: in the terminal, killall gnome-panel | 04:16 |
| MattJ_ | ninina: timer-applet | 04:16 |
| sylvar | nickrud: yes, that killed gnome-panel, but it's not coming back | 04:16 |
| ninina | MattJ_: Thank you | 04:16 |
| Nutubuntu | magic_ninja, so I'll remove the other one ... then what? | 04:16 |
| MattJ_ | sylvar: gnome-panel & | 04:17 |
| magic_ninja | Nutubuntu: edit your xorg.conf file, under the display section change the "NV" to nvidia | 04:17 |
| nickrud | sylvar: gnome-panel is supposed to respawn when it's stopped by default. try gnome-panel & in the terminal | 04:17 |
| sylvar | MattJ_ and nickrud: gnome-panel & didn't work. | 04:17 |
| magic_ninja | Nutubuntu: afterwards cross your fingers and restart x, thats the simplest way, hope it works | 04:17 |
| Nutubuntu | magic_ninja, okay ... wait one ... remove, or remove *completely* for the linux-restricted-modules ? | 04:17 |
| MattJ_ | Hmmm | 04:17 |
| magic_ninja | Nutubuntu: i've always had graphics card drivers | 04:17 |
| einnar | changelog, did you get it? | 04:18 |
| MattJ_ | sylvar: Can you run: gnome-terminal & | 04:18 |
| MattJ_ | ? | 04:18 |
| magic_ninja | Nutubuntu: make sure your removing the right one first, the package name i listed is the one you want to KEEP | 04:18 |
| nickrud | sylvar: hm, odd, I've done that probably a dozen times over the years. log out, log back in | 04:18 |
| changelog | no | 04:18 |
| changelog | einnar, I didn't | 04:18 |
| tatterdemalian | Hi again... | 04:18 |
| Nutubuntu | magic_ninja, got it - removing 20-16 and keeping 22-14 | 04:18 |
| magic_ninja | Nutubuntu: and remove it completely | 04:18 |

| MattJ_ | sfears: Right-click on the panel, Add to panel | 04:19 |
| einnar | changelog : ahh.. I'm not officially registered, so it blocked me. Is it okay to paste the output here in general chat? | 04:19 |
| magic_ninja | Nutubuntu: wait right here i'll be right back | 04:19 |
| MattJ_ | !paste | einnar | 04:19 |

| Sonarx | Has anyone been able to fetch the latest Samba updates for Gutsy? | 04:20 |
| nickrud | !sambabug | Sonarx | 04:20 |
| ubotu | Sonarx: A defect has been identified in a recent security update and as a result the associated packages have been taken offline. Please disregard any 403 errors you may receive when trying to apply updates. They will disappear once this problem is resolved. | 04:20 |

| drewzf | I'm trying to set up an ubuntu server, I have 10 IP's and only one publicly facing nic | 04:21 |
| changelog | einnar, try running gstreamer-properties and fiddle with the output preferences | 04:21 |
| jordan | How can i see what X display a user is running on | 04:21 |
| drewzf | How do I bind these IPs to my nic | 04:21 |
| Sonarx | That was kinda what I figured but I didn't see an announcement. Thanx! | 04:21 |
| greencookie | Is there a tty msn messenger program:) | 04:21 |
| kontol | I need help installing irssi. Perl was loaded but my scripts were giving errors. Has anyone here successfully installed 0.8.12? | 04:21 |
| sfears | i clicked on remove something on the panel and all my open applications disapeared??? | 04:21 |
| genii | drewzf: set up aliases for it | 04:21 |
| Hoss | how can i diagnose whether my wireless is connected or not? | 04:22 |
| danbhfive | Nutubuntu: since you are upgrading, I have another suggestion: gtkorphan | 04:22 |
| greencookie | Hoss: iwconfig | 04:22 |
| genii | eth0:0 eth0:1 etc | 04:22 |
| BlueRider | please tell me how to log on as root for the entire session (not sudo, not sudo su, not sudo nautilus), i want the system to be clear that all i am doing is done by root. i am sick and tired of this linux game of "accesses" | 04:22 |
| Nutubuntu | gtkorphan ... okay, danbhfive, I'll look that up. That's a new one to me. | 04:22 |
| choudesh | drewzf: you mean add more Static IPs to a device? | 04:22 |
| drewzf | choudesh: Yes | 04:22 |
| tatterdemalian | Hoss: iwlist [interface name] scan | 04:22 |
| kazol3 | Do I have to enable libcss2 somehow for it to work? | 04:22 |
| greencookie | BlueRider: log in as safe mode | 04:22 |
| Hoss | no wireless extensions | 04:22 |
| danbhfive | Nutubuntu: this weird package conflict may have resulted from orphaned packages | 04:22 |
| Hoss | interface name? | 04:23 |
| nickrud | lol, display is so geeked | 04:23 |
| kazol3 | I can't play a movie in Ubuntu. | 04:23 |
| drewzf | genii: Can you tell me the path to the config file for aliases? | 04:23 |
| Nutubuntu | Ah, I see, danbhfive | 04:23 |
| tatterdemalian | Hoss: The name of your wireless interface, as reported by iwconfig -a | 04:23 |
| tatterdemalian | Usually, something like "wlan0" | 04:23 |
| magic_ninja | Nutubuntu: i'm back | 04:23 |
| magic_ninja | Nutubuntu: what have you done | 04:23 |
| choudesh | drewzf: you can just add them to /etc/network/interfaces | 04:23 |
| free1 | sorry, I hope I can ask a noob question | 04:23 |
| tatterdemalian | Sometimes "eth1" | 04:23 |
| einnar | changelog : I get static with ALSA IEC1724 IEC958 output, but silence with everything else. | 04:24 |
| BlueRider | thanks i'll try it | 04:24 |

| drewzf | choudesh: Just add multiple address lines? | 04:24 |
| genii | 1 min keybd messed | 04:24 |

| Hoss | iwconfig > no such device | 04:24 |
| free1 | through the terminal I'm trying to access a server that I have a username and password to | 04:24 |
| Hoss | wconfig -a* | 04:24 |
| magic_ninja | now log out and then ctrl alt backspace to restart x | 04:24 |
| free1 | so at the terminal | 04:24 |
| Nutubuntu | okay, magic_ninja - hope to see you soon :) | 04:24 |
| magic_ninja | Nutubuntu: hey, before you exit | 04:24 |
| kontol | pleae hhelp me :( | 04:24 |
| Nutubuntu | Still here, magic_ninja | 04:24 |
| free1 | ssh x.y.net | 04:24 |
| MattJ_ | sfears: Right-click on it, and choose Add to panel | 04:24 |
| nickrud | free1: ssh? ssh user@server , give the password when asked | 04:25 |
| tatterdemalian | If the wireless is working, it wil list all access points it detects... if not, it will tell you "interface does not support scanning" or something along those lines. | 04:25 |
| magic_ninja | Nutubuntu: if it doesn't work and i'm not in i'll be back shortly, if all else fails sudo apt-get install BitchX | 04:25 |
| MattJ_ | sfears: There is a "Window list" applet (I think that's what it is called) | 04:25 |
| choudesh | drewzf: PM me please and I will send you what to add | 04:25 |
| Nutubuntu | Ohhhh kayyyy :) | 04:25 |
| free1 | nickrud- that's the problem | 04:25 |
| jordan | So i want to use zenity to display an error on another computer that im SSH'd to.. how do I tell it to use the local computer's X display instead of mine? | 04:25 |
| kazol3 | I cannot play a DVD in Ubuntu. | 04:25 |
| changelog | einnar, so select that one and try to play some msuic | 04:25 |
| Nutubuntu | Seriously, thanks magic_ninja and danbhfive | 04:25 |
| Hoss | okay then, wireless aint working | 04:25 |
| free1 | it asks for a password, without me specifying my username | 04:25 |
| magic_ninja | !dvd | kazol3 | 04:25 |
| ubotu | kazol3: For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at !Medibuntu or (for Feisty and earlier) http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs | 04:25 |
| JimmyDee_ | Question, what codec do I need to playback asterisk .sln files? | 04:25 |

| choudesh | Another issue stumping me tonight. http://pastebin.com/m74399983 the totals for du and df don't add up. | 04:25 |
| MattJ_ | jordan: use -X when you do the ssh command | 04:25 |
| Hoss | could it be looking at the eth0? | 04:26 |
| sfears | that works but that's not what it was | 04:26 |
| MattJ_ | jordan: ssh -X myuser@myserver | 04:26 |
| jordan | MattJ yes, but i want to display the error on the other computer, not mine | 04:26 |
| tatterdemalian | Hoss: No device? (don't put the -a in quotes or anything, it's a switch that reports all wireless interface names whether active or disabled) | 04:26 |
| jordan | MattJ so its like zenity --display:? | 04:26 |
| MattJ_ | jordan: Oh I see, I got it the wrong way around :) | 04:26 |
| genii | drewzf:man interfaces gives info | 04:26 |

| MattJ_ | jordan: But you need to be the user who owns that display | 04:26 |
| nickrud | free1: you are specifying the username in the ssh command, right? Or did you set up some of the fancier ssh auth methods at some time? | 04:26 |
| Hoss | this is what i entered: iwconfig -a | 04:26 |
| MattJ_ | jordan: Type: w | 04:26 |

| sfears | i use dhclient to grab an ip address when i boot up.. my knetwork manager doesn't show any available wireless networks.. any idea why knetwork manager isn't working.. or is that a questino for #kubuntu? | 04:29 |

| Hoss | done | 04:30 |
| kazol3 | All the DVDs I play are scrambled, and I have already installed libdvdcss2. Should I reboot or something? | 04:30 |
| MattJ_ | !patience | kontol | 04:30 |

| magic_ninja | choudesh: whats that | 04:30 |
| Hoss | hehe | 04:30 |
| jordan | MattJ now I can send messages to my grandma! hahaha | 04:31 |
| nickrud | kontol: usually people don't answer unless they know | 04:31 |
| choudesh | magic_ninja: http://pastebin.com/m74399983 | 04:31 |
| Hoss | i figured it out when it freaked out over -scan | 04:31 |
| choudesh | magic_ninja: du -h and df -h don't come up with the same values. | 04:31 |
| MattJ_ | kontol: You need to install irssi? Applications->Add/remove | 04:31 |
| Hoss | i appear to be connected | 04:31 |
| kontol | matt_j: not that one.. thats the old version | 04:31 |
| choudesh | magic_ninja: there is around 9gigs un-accounted for | 04:31 |
| Hoss | but when i pull out the ethernet, kaput | 04:31 |
| nickrud | kontol: for .8.12 you'd probably need to compile it (see I did see your question :) | 04:31 |
| Kalamarenku | how do you check which ports are blocked on Ubuntu ? | 04:32 |
| tatterdemalian | Hoss: Nope, that just detects... if it's detecting your network, you're not out of the woods yet | 04:32 |
| Kalamarenku | !ports | 04:32 |
| ubotu | For instructions on how to set up port-forwarding (for games, torrents, webservers) see http://portforward.com - also see !firewall | 04:32 |
| kontol | nickrud: I did that but my scripts don't work even though perl is loaded | 04:32 |
| Hoss | hmh | 04:32 |
| Hoss | mhm* | 04:32 |
| tatterdemalian | Hoss: It does at least mean that it *can* detect your network though... | 04:32 |
| kazol3 | How do I unencrypt DVDs? libdvdcss2 doesn't work. | 04:32 |
| nickrud | kontol: I don't use irssi, which is why I passed on the question. | 04:32 |
| Hoss | okay | 04:32 |
| kontol | :((((( | 04:32 |
| choudesh | magic_ninja: disk usage analyzer shows 3.1 GB in use. I am really stumped on this one. | 04:32 |
| Pici | kontol: What do you need that is in the latest version? | 04:32 |
| nickrud | kontol: you should ask either on the forums, or on the ubuntu-user mail list. Some smart people on the mail list | 04:33 |
| tatterdemalian | Hoss: Try an ifconfig -a | 04:33 |
| kontol | pici.. it has some bug fixes | 04:33 |
| nickrud | !nohelp | 04:33 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about nohelp - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 04:33 |

| Squalish | Question: 'What does "Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it" mean precisely? | 04:33 |
| kazol3 | Squalish: You've got apt running. | 04:34 |
| nickrud | kontol: out of curiosity, when you did the configure, did it say it was enabling perl ? | 04:34 |
| changelog | einnar, it has the right module | 04:34 |
| Squalish | rgr that kazol3, thx | 04:34 |
| MattJ_ | Squalish: You have another application like synaptic or apt-get running | 04:34 |
| changelog | einnar, maybe dmesg will tell you something? | 04:34 |
| danbhfive | Squalish: it sounds like you are trying to run two installer programs | 04:34 |
| changelog | einnar, check if your user belons to the audio group | 04:34 |
| kontol | nickrud yeah it did | 04:34 |
| Squalish | yep, thx | 04:34 |
| magic_ninja | choudesh: not really my cup of tea there | 04:34 |
| tatterdemalian | Hoss: Does the info on wlan0 include a line starting with "inet addr" and listing the IP address of your router? | 04:34 |
| kazol3 | Squalish: In other words, you're installing/removing packages at the same time. Only one instance can be open. | 04:34 |
| choudesh | magic_ninja: nope. block sizes are the same. | 04:35 |
| ace214 | hi- I installed compiz and emerald and didn't like them and removed them and now metacity doesn't boot by default. I tried adding it to the sesson boot up stuff but it didn't work. any help? | 04:35 |
| choudesh | magic_ninja: I know. I mean - I can fix most any issues except this one and it is driving me crazy | 04:35 |
| Hoss | tatterdemalian: the ip listed is not the router | 04:36 |
| einnar | changelog : i don't appear to have an audio group. o.O | 04:36 |
| sylvar | buttercups: Well, I went as far as uninstalling ubuntu-desktop and reinstalling it, and I've still got the problem of missing System>Administration items. | 04:36 |
| Hoss | it's my machine'scurrent ip as my gui wireless network apps tell me | 04:36 |
| tatterdemalian | Hoss: Whoops... sorry, it should list the DHCP-assigned addr of your computer | 04:36 |
| nickrud | changelog: the only thing that pops out at me is you have no / listed in the du listing, anything lurking there? | 04:36 |
| greencookie | Does GDM support widescreens? | 04:36 |
| Hoss | okay, then yes | 04:36 |
| einnar | changelog: under user privleges, I do have "use audio devices" though. | 04:36 |
| d4rkl4rd | quick question if the partition is /dev/sda3 is that hd0,2 ? | 04:36 |
| MattJ_ | greencookie: Works fine on mine | 04:37 |
| Hoss | it's my assigned ip | 04:37 |
| magic_ninja | for some reason when i right click in fluxbox nothing happens | 04:37 |
| greencookie | MattJ_: Mine is good, compiz works, but for some reason, I feel the windows are kinda streched too much horizontally. | 04:37 |
| tatterdemalian | Hoss: Hmm... is wlan0 still listed when you do a ifconfig without the -a? | 04:37 |
| Hoss | yep | 04:37 |
| greencookie | MattJ_: I didn't notice until a friend pointed out to me that my windows were wayyy to big:) | 04:37 |
| MattJ_ | greencookie: Probably you don't have a widescreen resolution selected? | 04:37 |
| Nutubuntu | magic_ninja ... close but so far not quite there in Gnome ...started KDE this session and it seems to work, but gnome-terminal, for instance, hangs | 04:38 |
| greencookie | MattJ_: 1024x786? | 04:38 |
| tatterdemalian | Hoss: Okay, try entering nm-tool | 04:38 |
| MattJ_ | System->Preferences->Screen Resolution | 04:38 |
| MattJ_ | greencookie: No, that's square(ish) | 04:38 |
| Hoss | state: connected | 04:38 |
| greencookie | I only have non widescren option. | 04:38 |
| ace214 | hi- I installed compiz and emerald and didn't like them and removed them and now metacity doesn't boot by default. I tried adding it to the sesson boot up stuff but it didn't work. any help? | 04:38 |
| greencookie | hold on | 04:38 |
| Hoss | it 'appears' fine | 04:38 |
| CaptainMorgan | !LTS | 04:39 |
| ubotu | LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server. | 04:39 |
| Hoss | but if i pull out the ethernet, i'm sure i'll get disconnected from the network | 04:39 |
| nickrud | ace214: start metacity (metacity --replace) look at the session tab, make sure it's respawn (hit apply) and save the session | 04:39 |
| CaptainMorgan | !upgrade | 04:39 |
| ubotu | For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes | 04:39 |
| danbhfive | Nutubuntu: if you try out gtkorphan remember to run this command after: | 04:39 |
| Hoss | ooh, hang on, | 04:39 |
| roscar | Hi all. When I run glxinfo, it tells me that direct rendering isn't enabled. I'm running a modern nvidia card and have the restricted drivers enabled. Why wouldn't it be enabled and more importantly, how can I change this? | 04:39 |
| magic_ninja | Nutubuntu: cat /proc/driver/nvidia/agp/status | 04:39 |
| Hoss | nm-tool is showing the wird settings | 04:39 |
| danbhfive | sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop^ && sudo apt-get install linux-generic | 04:39 |
| Hoss | wired* | 04:40 |
| tatterdemalian | Hoss: Does it list anything under a heading "wlan0"? You're probably connected on eth0 | 04:40 |
| Hoss | yes i am, that's what makes it complicated | 04:40 |
| MattJ_ | danbhfive: That is the same as: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop linux-generic | 04:40 |
| kazol3 | How do I play a DVD in Ubuntu??? | 04:40 |
| einnar | changelog, any thoughts? | 04:40 |
| ace214 | thanks, nickrud- i'll reboot and see if it worked | 04:40 |
| buttercups | sylvar, I am out of ideas, right click>edit menus, do they even show up in your menu editor under admin, are they checked | 04:40 |
| Hoss | it doesn't show any wlan0 | 04:41 |
| kazol3 | I've tried installing libdvdcss2 and it still doesn't work!! | 04:41 |
| Nutubuntu | magic_ninja, /proc/driver/nvidia/agp/status: No such file or directory | 04:41 |
| danbhfive | Mattj_: not exactly | 04:41 |
| MattJ_ | danbhfive: Also it's not the answer to everyone's problems :) | 04:41 |
| kazol3 | I've even rebooted. How do people do it? | 04:41 |
| Hoss | can i get nm-tool to display those settings? | 04:41 |
| roscar | kazol3: what program are you trying to use to run it? | 04:41 |
| magic_ninja | cat before the /proc | 04:41 |
| sylvar | buttercups: no, they do not show up in menu editor, either checked or unchecked. | 04:41 |
| magic_ninja | cat /proc/driver/nvidia/agp/status | 04:41 |
| tatterdemalian | Hoss: Hmm, that might be the problem... it should display wlan0 even if you're connected on eth0 | 04:41 |
| changelog | einnar, not really, sorry :( | 04:41 |
| kazol3 | roscar: vlc, for example. | 04:41 |
| changelog | einnar, have you searched through ubuntuforums.org? | 04:41 |
| CaptainMorgan | !schedule | 04:41 |
| ubotu | Ubuntu releases a new version every 6 months. Each version is supported for 18 months to 5 years. More info at http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/releases & http://wiki.ubuntu.com/TimeBasedReleases | 04:41 |
| DRtuxthepenguin | how do i acess my hpfs file system | 04:41 |
| tatterdemalian | At least, it does for me, but then my wireless has been acting up lately too | 04:42 |
| Nutubuntu | magic_ninja, yes, that's what I entered; what I pasted here is what it returned | 04:42 |
| MattJ_ | sylvar: If you don't have any luck here, definitely take this to the mailing list or forums | 04:42 |
| einnar | changelog : yes, actually. Nothing seems to have fixed it. | 04:42 |
| Hoss | hmm | 04:42 |
| changelog | einnar, does dmesg tell you anything? | 04:42 |
| roscar | kazol3: I havn't used vlc on linux before But I've been able to use ogle. That's all the advice I have. | 04:42 |
| magic_ninja | Nutubuntu: that line gave you that it doesn't exist | 04:42 |
| changelog | einnar, or alsamixer? | 04:42 |
| einnar | changelog, there was one thing on there about recompiling after changing some files, but I did not do that. | 04:42 |
| Hoss | i'll try disconnecting the wired and seeing what happens, i suspect i'll just find myself offline | 04:42 |
| sylvar | MattJ_: I'll advise my friend to do so; I'm staying at her place and helping as much as I can. | 04:42 |
| magic_ninja | Nutubuntu: lspci | grep VGA | 04:42 |
| Hoss | see you soon | 04:42 |
| changelog | einnar, i don't think a recompile will be necessary. try using alsamixer, and see if anything is muted | 04:43 |
| tatterdemalian | Hoss: It's probably something wrong with Network-manager then... that's the default Ubuntu network-manipulating tool | 04:43 |
| changelog | einnar, getting static on gstreamer-properties is usually a good sign :) | 04:43 |
| Nutubuntu | magic_ninja, that returns: 00:05.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation C51PV [GeForce 6150] (rev a2) | 04:43 |
| tatterdemalian | Hoss: Try running nm-tool with no wired connection | 04:43 |
| einnar | changelog : dmesg : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/44837/ | 04:43 |
| sylvar | MattJ_ and buttercups: Would any of the stuff in ~/.gconf/ be relevant to what's displayed in menu editor? | 04:43 |
| DRtuxthepenguin | !hpfs | 04:43 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about hpfs - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 04:43 |
| MattJ_ | sylvar: Possibly, yes... | 04:43 |
| MattJ_ | sylvar: It might be where it saves the hidden/non-hidden for the menu editor | 04:44 |
| einnar | changelog alsamixer loads, but I see nothing odd. | 04:44 |
| nickrud | sylvar: the custom stuff would be in ~/.local/share/applications , the default in /usr/share/applications | 04:44 |
| Hoss_ | well well well | 04:44 |
| changelog | einnar, set everything to maximum | 04:44 |
| magic_ninja | look at these two commands: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=366422 at the top of the post | 04:44 |
| Hoss_ | wellity wellity wellity | 04:44 |
| magic_ninja | you should get an output similar to the one posted | 04:44 |
| tatterdemalian | Hoss_: Did you try running nm-tool with no wired connection? | 04:44 |
| cake45 | whats a good bittorrent client? | 04:44 |
| Hoss_ | yeah man | 04:44 |
| Hoss_ | i'm on | 04:45 |
| magic_ninja | cake45: i like bittornado | 04:45 |
| tatterdemalian | Hoss_: I take it you're wireless now? | 04:45 |
| Hoss_ | this is what i think was going on | 04:45 |
| Hoss_ | i had two ips, one for the eth0 and one for the wlan0 | 04:45 |
| Hoss_ | yes, wireless | 04:45 |
| nickrud | sylvar: the display property is kept in the .desktop file itself | 04:45 |
| tatterdemalian | Hoss_: I see... and network manager got confused by the hotplugging of the internet connection | 04:45 |
| Hoss_ | when i pulledout the ethernet, the programs running; this, thunderbird, wwere acting as if they were offline | 04:46 |
| einnar | changelog, everything that can be maxed now is. | 04:46 |
| sylvar | nickrud: I see some VLC, gnome-terminal, and kmplayer files in ~/.local/share/applications, but those don't seem relevant | 04:46 |
| Hoss_ | restarting them again, and they are suddenly online | 04:46 |
| buttercups | sylvar, create a new user account, and try logging in to that, check to see if all the menu icons are present | 04:46 |
| nickrud | sylvar: look at /usr/share/applications, see if it's there | 04:46 |
| Hoss_ | 'cept nm-tool isstill only displaying wired settings | 04:46 |
| nickrud | oh, icons (need to read back further) , sylvar try changing icon themes a couple times | 04:46 |
| sylvar | nickrud: yes, for example, /usr/share/applications does contain hal-device-manager.desktop | 04:47 |
| cAfwQh3RR | hello, im trying to re install ubuntu but im having some errors could someone help me? | 04:47 |
| Hoss_ | now, will this machine connect automatically to this network? | 04:47 |
| einnar | changelog, still static, appears some plugins are missing, though. | 04:47 |
| tatterdemalian | Hoss_: Try running it again, network-dispatcher probably noticed a problem and fixed it after nm-tool reported | 04:47 |
| danbhfive | the carrot^ makes it different | 04:47 |
| changelog | einnar, you think that the plugins might be at fault? | 04:47 |
| Hoss_ | nm-tool again? | 04:47 |
| sylvar | Well, it doesn't LOOK like an icon problem; the menu options aren't LISTED in the Menu Editor. | 04:48 |
| greencookie | hmmm | 04:48 |
| Hoss_ | are there any -all switched? | 04:48 |
| Hoss_ | switches* | 04:48 |
| einnar | changelog, don't know. trying to find and enable them now. | 04:48 |
| tatterdemalian | Hoss_: One more time, I don't think it can hurt | 04:48 |
| tatterdemalian | Hoss_: Nope, nm-tool has no switches | 04:48 |
| Hoss_ | same thing shows up | 04:48 |
| nickrud | sylvar: but alacarte doesn't see it for you then | 04:49 |
| Hoss_ | weird, it says state: connected, nm path: ....eth0 | 04:49 |
| Hoss_ | which si not connected | 04:49 |
| Hoss_ | wired settings, hardwire link: no | 04:49 |
| ItchyHobo | hi | 04:49 |
| tatterdemalian | That's really strange. to be honest, network-manager is annoyingly black-boxed... sometimes running nm-tool is just the poke it needs, if I can't get wireless to work | 04:50 |
| ItchyHobo | i am getting a 403 forbidden error when i tried to update my ubuntu today | 04:50 |
| ItchyHobo | anybody else getting that | 04:50 |
| Hoss_ | right | 04:50 |
| uncle_grombor197 | Hello all. Does anyone know how to turn the modem noise off when the gui doesn't seem to work? I have the ppp interface set to no sound, but it doesn't work. I am running a 56k serial modem, not by choice. I've looked at the forums, google, and my massive collection of books and can't seem to figure it out. Tried messing with the chatscrips and just about killed my distro with pico! | 04:50 |
| Hoss_ | well, thanks for your help, tatterdemalian | 04:50 |
| nickrud | tatterdemalian: annoyingly is not the word I would use | 04:50 |

| cAfwQh3RR | No im not | 04:53 |
| stevenrushing | lol at itchy... you can't do it software side? | 04:53 |
| Jangari | what's the difference between a terminal and a console? | 04:54 |
| ace214 | ok brb | 04:54 |
| dzcom | hhp2k: why flash the bios? | 04:54 |
| changelog | einnar, nope, no problem there | 04:54 |
| stevenrushing | same thing | 04:54 |
| Jangari | isn't the former an emulator of the latter? | 04:54 |
| changelog | sorry mate | 04:54 |
| einnar | changelog, I was trying to follow the directions at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=205449, and was not able to see ALSA drivers for my reported card. | 04:54 |
| nickrud | ace214: you might have two metacities trying to run, if you set up metacity in the other session stuff | 04:54 |
| uncle_grombor197 | why not just moon it?! :-P | 04:54 |
| tatterdemalian | Terminal has a white background and window handles... heh | 04:54 |
| hhp2k | dzcom: It's completely password protected, and I can't enter the system at all. | 04:54 |
| ace214 | i removed that | 04:54 |
| einnar | changelog, got to step 3 at that link, then no further. | 04:54 |
| Jangari | window handles? | 04:54 |
| MattJ_ | stevenrushing: Look in System->Preferences->Keyboard, there are various things in there to remap keys | 04:54 |
| Jangari | oh, is that it? | 04:54 |
| Jangari | then why ever bother alt+ctrl+F1? | 04:54 |
| tatterdemalian | Jangari: Well, the Terminal Ubuntu app does... | 04:55 |
| dzcom | hhp2k: oh... I'm not sure | 04:55 |
| ninina | is compiz running by defualt with 7.10? | 04:55 |
| ItchyHobo | Jangari, suppose rarely when an application hangs that is in full screen mode | 04:55 |

| hhp2k | dzcom: Would you know where I might be able to find help on IRC? | 04:55 |
| ItchyHobo | Jangari, i press that combination and restardt my computer from a command line | 04:55 |
| dzcom | hhp2k: how to do it? | 04:55 |
| hhp2k | dzcom: In general, yes. | 04:56 |
| tatterdemalian | Jangari: I think alt+ctrl+F1 has more runlevels... but Ubuntu only recognizes two runlevels, "1" and "not 1", and neither terminal nor console do "1" | 04:56 |
| hhp2k | Or any other better advice | 04:56 |
| Jangari | yeah, alright, a nice way outof any hard spot i suppose | 04:56 |
| SJrX | What is a good way to start stressing a linux machines CPU ? | 04:56 |
| dzcom | hhp2k: http://www.google.com/search?q=reset+bios+password | 04:56 |
| dzcom | not sure | 04:56 |
| nickrud | ace214: then, if you have no clues in ~/.xsession-errors, remove ~/.gnome2/session and then restart X | 04:56 |
| hhp2k | should have checked google =) Thanks dzcom! | 04:56 |
| nickrud | tatterdemalian: it actually recognizes 7 , but uses 2 | 04:56 |
| dzcom | hhp2k: np | 04:56 |
| elvys | elvys | 04:56 |
| Nyle | ubutnu | 04:56 |
| tatterdemalian | Unless you tell it to, which would be bad | 04:57 |
| nickrud | tatterdemalian: erm, uses "2" by default, but uses 4 of them | 04:57 |
| Jangari | i've noticed that ctrl+alt+del while in a console immediately restarts | 04:57 |
| Jangari | that was useful when i accidentally entered a console and didn't know how to exit | 04:57 |
| tatterdemalian | Well, bad for a n00b like me | 04:57 |
| nickrud | Jangari: alt-f7 (or f8 or f9) will take you back to X | 04:57 |
| Jangari | i know now, thanks | 04:58 |
| tatterdemalian | Jangar: Return to graphic window with ctrl + alt + f7 | 04:58 |

| nickrud | avahi is a black hole for me, along with NetworkManager. I just pray they work | 05:00 |
| yuaoki_ | any one here good with Nvidia Video support? | 05:01 |
| tatterdemalian | avahi is apparently required to support the IPv4 protocol. Unfortunately, it likes to take its support away from my wlan0 interface at apparently random intervals, which cuts off my wifi | 05:01 |
| crimsun | tatterdemalian: try removing avahi-autoipd. | 05:02 |
| tatterdemalian | Since my router doesn't recognize IPv6 | 05:02 |
| uncle_grombor197 | for Nvidia just try downloading a program called ENVY and run it. | 05:02 |
| Kalamarenku | how do I kill the X graphical Interface ? | 05:02 |
| nickrud | I thought avahi was simply to advertise available services, not required for network | 05:02 |
| Kalamarenku | I need to install nvidia drivers | 05:02 |
| yuaoki_ | i've tried ENVY no help | 05:03 |
| nickrud | Kalamarenku: hit clt-alt-f1, login , type sudo invoke-rc.d gdm stop, then sudo invoke-rc.d gdm start when done | 05:03 |
| stevenrushing | what version of gnome comes with gutsy? | 05:03 |
| crimsun | stevenrushing: 2.20 | 05:03 |
| crimsun | bits of 2.20.1 are in gutsy-proposed | 05:03 |
| tatterdemalian | crimsun: Did that, made Ubuntu crash. Then I tried disabling it, and when I did that, the ipv4 protocols on all my interfaces disappeared. | 05:03 |
| uncle_grombor197 | Hmmm, the only other thing I can think of is your card is either VERY new or Very old. | 05:03 |
| Kalamarenku | nickrud: TY I will try that | 05:03 |
| crimsun | tatterdemalian: my mostly-gutsy install runs fine without avahi-autoipd | 05:04 |
| yuaoki_ | uncle_grombor197 - is Nvidia Geforse FX 5200 new? | 05:04 |
| * nickrud shudders at the thought of hardy stuff on my machine already | 05:04 | |
| LucianIndy | Hi. I use to make a lot of video tutorials on Windows XP when I used Windows, but haven't since I began using Ubuntu. I know how to record the desktop on linux, but what software can I use to add labels to the recorded videos (i rather use labels than voice)? | 05:04 |
| uncle_grombor197 | Old | 05:04 |
| yuaoki_ | ow old | 05:05 |
| uncle_grombor197 | shouldn't be a problem. Hmmm. Is it Agp, Pci, or Pcie? | 05:05 |
| LucianIndy | I've tried a lot of linux video editing programs, but couldn't find one that did what i needed it to do | 05:05 |
| tatterdemalian | crimsun: Mine doesn't. | 05:05 |
| Lgndryhr | I am having trouble upgrading my distro from edgy to fiesty fawn | 05:05 |
| adrian_ | wau 1200 users.. :) nice | 05:06 |
| danny | Guys check out my first mac theme!!!! http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Mac+Os+X+Leopard+?content=69924 | 05:06 |
| yuaoki_ | what's a good price ranged Video card thats is supported by Ubuntu? (lookin somewhere between 40 and 60) | 05:06 |
| Nikster | I've gotten XGL to run on my old nvidia geforce 2 card, but it just makes stuff really slow, and won't even run composite stuff.. anyone have a clue? | 05:06 |
| mosibfu | yuaoki_ nvidia has the best drivers imho, rather a high clocked 7 series then a slower 8 series | 05:06 |
| usser | i wish people would stop copying mac os | 05:06 |
| nickrud | LucianIndy: videotrans says it has a utility movie-title , maybe that would work | 05:07 |
| hhp2k | Hm.. so Google has once again let me down and I need to know how to clear/flash an IBM Thinkpad Bios Password. Does anyone know how to do this, or know where I can get help on IRC? | 05:07 |
| davef | Lgndryhr: just reformat, and do a fresh install | 05:07 |
| LucianIndy | nickrud, thanks for the info :D | 05:07 |
| ItchyHobo | danny, cool | 05:07 |
| tatterdemalian | LucianIndy: Sorry, you'd probably want a video editor with subtitle stream manipulation, if not direct video manipulation... I got nothing tho | 05:07 |
| Lgndryhr | reformat the hd? | 05:07 |
| usser | yuaoki_: any nvidia one of 5 or 6 generation would suffice | 05:07 |
| nickrud | LucianIndy: um, further reading says I'm off base I think | 05:07 |
| ItchyHobo | danny, what icons are u using? | 05:07 |
| davef | Lgndryhr: backup your data, and do a fresh install over your current linux partition | 05:07 |
| Lgndryhr | my error when updating should not require a reformat and fresh install | 05:08 |
| danny | i made them myself | 05:08 |
| danny | i will release them | 05:08 |
| usser | Nikster: xgl on nvidia? | 05:08 |
| danny | soon | 05:08 |
| danny | you guys like? | 05:08 |
| davef | Lgndryhr: its easier to do a fresh install then bother with upgrade problems | 05:08 |
| Nikster | usser: yeah? what should i use then? | 05:08 |
| uncle_grombor197 | The only way I know how to clear ram is to wear fuzzy socks, rub your feet in the carpet, and touch your ram! (just kidding, sry, I don't have a clue how to do it) | 05:08 |
| nickrud | Lgndryhr: what's the error? | 05:08 |
| ItchyHobo | danny, i like | 05:08 |
| Jangari | hey, general non-ubuntu related question: even if you are wired connected to a router, is your connection speed limited by the router's possible output? | 05:08 |
| tatterdemalian | Maybe Bink/Smacker under Wine? | 05:08 |
| LucianIndy | nickrud, thanks. . . tatterdemalian, yeah I am looking but either the software I find wont run (old, outdated software that has been abandoned) or just doesn't include the feature | 05:08 |
| usser | Nikster: xorg built in composite extenstion with nvidia driver | 05:08 |
| Nikster | usser: only thing that works for me is xcompmgr | 05:08 |
| Jangari | i'd have though that a router's speed pertained only to wireless | 05:08 |
| Lgndryhr | it could not fetch 4 different things with a 404 error | 05:08 |
| danny | ItchyHobo: I will release it early just for you | 05:08 |
| danny | posting now ok!!! | 05:09 |
| nickrud | Lgndryhr: samba stuff? transient problem,you'll have to wait it out | 05:09 |
| Nikster | usser: how do i enable it? if i try to enable desktop effects it just says it can't load them (yes, i have glx and composite enabled) | 05:09 |
| ItchyHobo | danny, thanks | 05:09 |
| tatterdemalian | Heck, maybe Adobe Premiere under Wine... costs mucho lucre, tho | 05:09 |
| nickrud | !sambabug | Lgndryhr | 05:09 |
| ubotu | Lgndryhr: A defect has been identified in a recent security update and as a result the associated packages have been taken offline. Please disregard any 403 errors you may receive when trying to apply updates. They will disappear once this problem is resolved. | 05:09 |
| Lgndryhr | yea i got a samba bug today too for normal updates | 05:09 |
| Lgndryhr | but it is not samba items | 05:10 |
| usser | Nikster: hm, composite is enabled eh? i assume u have restricted driver installed? | 05:10 |
| Nikster | usser: yes, i do | 05:10 |
| usser | Nikster: and u run ubuntu? 7.10? | 05:10 |
| tatterdemalian | Jangari: I'd guess so, if your router has a lower ethernet transfer speed than whatever your gateway connection is | 05:10 |
| nickrud | Lgndryhr: are they from ubuntu repos, or third party ones? | 05:10 |
| usser | Nikster: try doing compiz --replace in console | 05:10 |
| Nikster | usser: yes. But remember, it's a legacy card. but still | 05:10 |
| Jangari | right, that bites | 05:10 |
| danny | Np Itchy | 05:10 |
| Lgndryhr | here is one as an example: http://medibuntu.sos-sts.com/repo/dists/edgy/free/binary-i386/Packages.gz 404 Not Found | 05:10 |
| SpeakerMania | I have a separate hard drive other than the one with my system on it. I want to copy my files to it but every time I try I get an error stating that I don't have permission. How do I fix this? | 05:10 |
| Jangari | we're paying for adsl 2+ and getting less that adsl 1 speeds | 05:10 |
| nickrud | Lgndryhr: that repo doesn't exist anymore, comment out all 3d party repos when upgrading | 05:11 |
| Lgndryhr | and it says failed to fetch then that | 05:11 |
| tatterdemalian | Wireless will usually be even slower, especially with the extra overhead of WEP/WPA | 05:11 |
| Lgndryhr | k | 05:11 |
| terry__ | nickrud, | 05:11 |
| Nikster | usser: it says Xgl is not present | 05:11 |
| Lgndryhr | i wasnt sure if it did or not | 05:11 |
| terry__ | it's ir0n | 05:11 |
| Lgndryhr | since i am on such an old distro now | 05:11 |
| Jangari | ironically, this machine on wireless is performing better than the wired esktop | 05:11 |
| nickrud | terry__: was wondering what happend to you | 05:11 |
| usser | Nikster: hm what model of card is that? | 05:11 |
| terry__ | yea... I ended up loosing the files.. -.- | 05:11 |
| Nikster | usser: Geforce 2 Pro/Gts | 05:12 |
| terry__ | I am on fiesty now though but have another problem | 05:12 |
| hanasaki | what group does a user have to be in for auotmouting of a usb flashdrive to work when pluged in | 05:12 |
| tatterdemalian | Jangari: Heh... then maybe it has hardware-accelerated wireless, and software ethernet resolution. | 05:12 |
| === terry__ is now known as ir0nfusion | ||
| Jangari | i doubt that | 05:12 |
| Jangari | old card,old router, | 05:12 |
| usser | Nikster: huh | 05:12 |
| Lgndryhr | crap i cant remember where sources.list is, lol | 05:13 |
| Keith-BlindUser | Was curious if anyone knows about any of the accessibility options in Ubuntu, especilally if the user is blind-and/0or visually impaired? I'm having trouble finding any accessibility documentation. | 05:13 |
| tritium | Lgndryhr: /etc/apt | 05:13 |
| Lgndryhr | oh yea thanks | 05:13 |
| Nikster | usser: ? | 05:13 |
| danny | hang on Itchy kk im just adding screen shots and notes | 05:13 |
| tatterdemalian | New card here, but old router... 100 mbps ethernet, 34 mbps wireless | 05:13 |
| Lgndryhr | at least i was in /etc | 05:13 |
| ItchyHobo | Keith-BlindUser, you can use high contrast themes from appearance | 05:13 |
| Jangari | Keith-BlindUser: preferences > universal access, i think | 05:14 |
| Jangari | i might upgrade my router, tatterdemalian | 05:14 |
| sidlet | Is Gusty > Fiesty? Or is it still pretty bug ridden? | 05:14 |
| === adrian_ is now known as asus3008 | ||
| Jangari | is compiz the default included graphics thing for gnome? ine has a bug | 05:14 |
| usser | Nikster: sorry i just have never used the legacy card by i'd guess that nvidia shouldnt ask for no xgl | 05:15 |
| Jangari | mine* has a bug | 05:15 |
| tatterdemalian | Jangari: Don't look at me for advice... I bought a laptop with a Broadcom wifi, my judgement is highly suspect | 05:15 |
| ItchyHobo | sidlet, firefox seem hang a lot in gutsy | 05:15 |
| sidlet | ItchyHobo, I'm getting that in feisty as well :-| | 05:15 |
| Lgndryhr | thanks | 05:15 |
| Lgndryhr | worked | 05:15 |
| tatterdemalian | sidlet: It's Linux... it's buggy by design. No, really, that way viruses crash everything before they can propogate | 05:16 |
| Munk333 | Hey guys, I noticed you can download the header files for libraries off of synaptic, does it put them in one big include directory? | 05:16 |
| Nikster | usser: okay.. it just checks if xgl is present, and its not. then it falls back to metacity.. | 05:16 |
| Nikster | maby i should just give up :P | 05:16 |
| sidlet | tatterdemalian, thats not what I was looking for :P I was talking about gutsy being "bleeding edge" vs feisty's -stable branch | 05:16 |
| === ihsan is now known as sunjun | ||
| tatterdemalian | sidlet: I don't think so... Gutsy is the latest stable distro, the bleeding edge is several more distros ahead | 05:17 |
| sidlet | Ah so gutsy is -stable then? | 05:17 |
| Snuxoll | yes sidlet | 05:18 |
| tritium | sidlet: yes, gutsy is the current stable release | 05:18 |
| ItchyHobo | except for firefox | 05:18 |
| sidlet | okay sorry for my idiocy. And thank you for your input. | 05:18 |
| tatterdemalian | sidlet: As stable as Linux can get, and it has been more stable than any others I've tried | 05:18 |
| Snuxoll | sidlet: Unless you asking id Gutsy is based on debian stable | 05:18 |
| danny | ItchyHobo: uploading | 05:18 |
| quio | Hello all :) I have a simple question I hope can be answered. I have set up a wireless network in my house but I do not broadcast the network name. Because of this a neighbor who has a broadcasted network always connects to my laptop when I turn on my pc. How can I set my Ubuntu laptop to look for my unbroadcasted network first before looking for another? Thanks :) | 05:18 |
| Snuxoll | quio: Manual network configuration | 05:19 |
| linuxidiot | quio: iwconfig | 05:19 |
| sidlet | dist-upgrading, woot. | 05:19 |
| Snuxoll | linuxidiot: He can use the network config applet, which will remain after reboot | 05:19 |
| ir0nfusion | I need help with my wireless in ubuntu fiesty | 05:20 |
| ir0nfusion | I downgraded from gutsy and seems wireless wont work | 05:20 |
| danny | ItchyHobo: Im sorry servers slow today | 05:20 |

| ir0nfusion | but no wireless so can someone help | 05:20 |
| danny | yes | 05:20 |
| tatterdemalian | sidlet: Keep in mind the updater has some 403-errors right now... it's not Gutsy, it's the samba programmers accidentally encoding an exploit and going "OH CRAP" after they put it on the Ubuntu update server | 05:21 |
| ItchyHobo | danny, well take your time i'll get it later; have 2runinany case | 05:21 |
| danny | ItchyHobo: Are u installing the themes? | 05:21 |
| sunjun | hello everyone. | 05:21 |
| sidlet | tatterdemalian, I thought that samba issue was propigated through all the distro's. Did it not hit feisty? | 05:21 |
| sunjun | I'm just a newby ubuntu user | 05:21 |
| Snuxoll | quio: All you do then is tell you card not to use the manual configuration (reenable roaming mode) | 05:21 |
| linuxidiot | ir0nfusion: livecd? | 05:22 |
| ItchyHobo | danny, will getem later have2 run | 05:22 |

| quio | <Snuxoll> OK cool. I will try that, There is no way to make it work like XP though I guess huh? | 05:22 |
| tatterdemalian | sidlet: Just letting you know, in case you got done upgrading and suddenly got lit up with 403 errors in the updater | 05:22 |

| danny | ItchyHobo: Np | 05:23 |
| Snuxoll | quio: Not with the current way that network manager works, sadly | 05:23 |
| tatterdemalian | sidlet: Nope, shouldn't anyway. Just might freak someone nervous about upgrading out | 05:24 |
| ace214 | nickrud: ok, well i got logged in and all, but metacity still isnt booting up | 05:24 |
| sidlet | tatterdemalian, sweet. Thanks for the info. | 05:24 |
| nickrud | ace214: ok, look in ~/.config/autostart, do any of those have any bearing | 05:24 |
| linuxidiot | ir0nfusion: does cat /proc/net/wireless have an entry for it? | 05:25 |
| quio | <Snuxoll> OK Thanks. Have a good one. | 05:25 |
| Jester45 | is there any way to check if my installer has froze its decting hardware, loading the usb storage module and has been there for a few hours and my computer is fast so its not just tanking that long CPU is at about 7%. could it be that i have a wireless card attached it cant reconize ? | 05:25 |
| tatterdemalian | I'm going to check #avahi again... maybe someone will actually help this time | 05:25 |
| ace214 | nickrud: there's nothing there | 05:26 |
| Squalish | OKAY, continuing my question from before - I found another file that does the same things, but it's not an xvid file. It's x264 + AAC .mp4 file. What would I have to install to view that? | 05:26 |
| nickrud | ace214: ok | 05:26 |

| meezfoghi | can i install LAMP server at ubuntu desktop?? | 05:53 |
| nickrud | !lamp | meezfoghi (yes) | 05:53 |
| terry__ | now whenever I add new drivers linuxidiot I dont have to modprobe again? | 05:53 |
| ubotu | meezfoghi (yes): 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+) | 05:53 |

| nickrud | amazen720:yes, that works well. The only addition I'd make to that is, cd /usr/local/bin && sudo ln -s /usr/local/celtx/celtx . (so you can just type celtx to run it) | 05:57 |
| meezfoghi | anyone ?? | 05:58 |
| jrib | SpeakerMania: no | 05:58 |
| sparkydog | broken: no, where can I get it? | 05:58 |
| SpeakerMania | jrib, so just "mv ~/Music/ /media/disk/Music"? | 05:58 |
| amazen720 | nickrud: I'll try that | 05:58 |
| broken | sparkydog: just pop open synaptics package manager and search for "networkmanager" and "gnetworkmanager" | 05:58 |

| sidlet | I've never cared for SuSE. I recall when their retail distro came with like 15 cd's. | 06:05 |
| nickrud | sidlet: 6.3 , my first one had 6. Why I bought it | 06:06 |
| mosibfu | is there any way to enable multiverse repositories from command line? | 06:06 |
| broken | nickrud: indeed, it should be like that :) Only thing that really needs to be figured out is DirectX emulation imo. | 06:06 |
| camgame | and the /etc/X11/xorg.conf view the Device Driver is vesa | 06:06 |
| broken | Wine has come a long way though. | 06:06 |

| nickrud | oh, games <-> console | 06:06 |
| mosibfu | broken: how dare u say emulation when talking about wine, WINE IS NOT EMULATOR, is what wine means.. | 06:07 |
| Tesla|Work | =) | 06:07 |
| camgame | If i modified the xorg.conf's driver vesa to intel ,the screen is very ugly | 06:07 |

| mosibfu | broken: wine doesnt emulate a thing, its just a layer between windows software and linux system | 06:08 |
| dmi3on | what is solution ?? | 06:08 |
| aliljet | the daytrading platfomr itself works fine | 06:08 |
| nickrud | amazen720: then ls /usr/local/celtx/celtx , do you see that? | 06:08 |

| Lord_MuffloN^ | Q: What drivers from NVIDIA should I use for a 8600 MOBILE GT | 06:09 |
| mosibfu | broken: the problem is not direct-x, the problem is programmers that use standard codes provided by microsoft | 06:09 |
| dmi3on | Tesla|Work: how >? i am new | 06:09 |
| mosibfu | Lord_MuffloN^: use the nvidia-glx-new | 06:09 |
| amazen720 | nickrud: Im in the here /usr/local/bin$, and when I ls, I see celtx | 06:09 |
| Lord_MuffloN^ | Emphasis on the "MOBILE" part | 06:09 |
| broken | mosibfu: its always microsofts fault, i've come to realize that lol | 06:10 |
| Ely | how do you log in as root on the terminal ? I type su then it asks me for my password I type it and it wont accept my password? I dont have any other accounts other than the one I created when I installed ubuntu | 06:10 |
| Tesla|Work | dmi3on: ok, go and read a faq than :-) | 06:10 |
| Lord_MuffloN^ | mosibfu, no way in ****, they are the reason I had to reinstall the god damn distro | 06:10 |
| nickrud | amazen720: ok, /usr/local/celtx/celtx , does it run? | 06:10 |
| Lord_MuffloN^ | Plus, the NVIDIA ones are supposed to give far better performance | 06:10 |
| Tesla|Work | Ely: rood is disabled by default. use sudo | 06:10 |
| mosibfu | broken: its not microsofts fault honestly, its just that programmers are to lazy to type, so they rather take standard functions, implemented in direct-x | 06:10 |
| * broken anxiously waits for some better ati drivers | 06:10 | |
| Ely | oh | 06:10 |
| xivanari | heya folks | 06:10 |

| brad__ | I have been unable to install Ubuntu on a Dell Poweredge 2400sc, I keep getting a squashfs error Unable to load file | 06:11 |
| mosibfu | Lord_MuffloN^: for the geforce 7000/8000 you shuld use the -new driver, however, mobile might be different *using on board ram or something* | 06:11 |
| nickrud | amazen720: ok, then the unpacking went oddly maybe. cd /usr/local , then ls , do you see celtx | 06:11 |
| broken | mosibfu: perhaps, well I'll just hope something will pop up. | 06:11 |
| digital_1 | camgame: did the "Advances Desktop Effect Settings" appear automatically after install under System-->Preferences? | 06:11 |

| gavintlgold | hi, i have a problem: i'm trying to compile something, but I get an error that "X11" is not found. I know x11 is installed on my system since it runs (and installs with synaptic) fine. I think the problem comes from me manually compiling "libx11" and then uninstalling it manually, then reinstalling with synaptic.... any way to fix this? | 06:22 |
| CyberMad | because on tightvnc use 2 password (primary password ~ can do full controll & viewer only password) | 06:22 |
| Volvagia356 | I lost GRUB when switching hardisks | 06:22 |
| gavintlgold | it says, "Package 'x11', required by 'Xrender', not found" | 06:22 |

| broken | Volvagia356: did you install it on only one drive? | 06:23 |
| dmi3on | broken: thnks | 06:23 |
| broken | np | 06:23 |
| brad__ | volva rerun the installer and it pick upgrade | 06:23 |
| brad__ | then install grub to mbr | 06:23 |
| digital_1 | camgame: there is a package called xserver-xorg-video-intel that is supposed to have the drivers | 06:23 |
| Volvagia356 | before, I have GRUB and windows on one drive, linux on the other | 06:23 |
| broken | mbr being /dev/sda for example as opposed to /dev/sda1 | 06:23 |
| Volvagia356 | now I swapped out the drive with GRUB on it | 06:23 |
| camgame | yes, the driver is intalled, just the driver not work | 06:23 |
| mosibfu | Cybermad, i only use 1 password on my tightvnc so erm, i wouldnt know honestly, you might want to read: http://grumpymole.blogspot.com/2006/12/xubuntu-remote-desktop-with-vnc4server.html | 06:24 |
| brad__ | grub goes in to the mbr | 06:24 |

| Flannel | MilitantPotato: it is. I don't know what files are themes, but yes, that's exactly what you do. Perhaps try starting the theme editor doohickey as root, and doing it that wya | 06:26 |
| Tomasu | you know except that it causes the entire install to fail | 06:27 |

| nickrud | that samba bug should just autospawn every minute | 06:28 |
| digital_1 | Tomasu-- is this an upgrade or clean install? | 06:28 |
| williambjmahon | same her | 06:28 |
| MilitantPotato | try to force it | 06:28 |
| williambjmahon | e | 06:28 |
| xivanari | ok nvm found a way. | 06:28 |
| Sirp | how does one force it? | 06:28 |
| MilitantPotato | or, upgrade from a CD | 06:28 |
| williambjmahon | force it? | 06:28 |
| brad__ | sirp, use sudo from terminal | 06:28 |
| Tomasu | digital_1: I just re installed 7.10 amd64, but its just a plane "apt-get upgrade" | 06:28 |
| nickrud | williambjmahon: wait, the packages are off the repos because they are bad | 06:28 |
| MilitantPotato | Tomasu: use synaptic | 06:29 |
| williambjmahon | so just wait until they are repaired ? | 06:29 |
| MilitantPotato | or, force the upgrades | 06:29 |
| nickrud | williambjmahon: yes | 06:29 |
| Sirp | is there an estimate on when they will be repaired? | 06:29 |
| Tomasu | I was using adept, but it was failing as well | 06:29 |
| Tomasu | sooo | 06:29 |
| MilitantPotato | williambjmahon: if you're trying to upgrade from feisty, you can upgrade from a gutsy CD | 06:29 |
| nickrud | Sirp: no | 06:29 |
| MilitantPotato | Tomasu: just don't install the samba updates. | 06:29 |
| x_ | hello | 06:29 |
| dmi3on | when i try to install program its saying you need logged in as root to continue with this installation | 06:30 |

| x_ | i have got samba problem | 06:30 |
| x_ | i cant update. | 06:30 |

| digital_1 | ignore if for a few days | 06:30 |

| nickrud | !sambabug | CubeXombi | 06:31 |
| ubotu | CubeXombi: please see above | 06:31 |
| MilitantPotato | Tomasu: just uncheck the samba upgrades. | 06:31 |
| digital_1 | and... to quote Homer Simpson "Let someone else do it" | 06:31 |
| digital_1 | or turn off the "security updates" repo for a few days | 06:31 |
| Tomasu | MilitantPotato: from the update manager? theres no interface for that :P and it'll keep failing.. | 06:31 |
| nickrud | digital_1 has the best advice for now | 06:31 |
| Tomasu | why didnt they actually update the repo instead of making the package fail? | 06:31 |
| CubeXombi | sounds good | 06:31 |
| Volvagia356 | where is the MBR located? | 06:32 |
| MilitantPotato | adept lets you uncheck upgrades | 06:32 |
| dmi3on | MilitantPotato: i instal from iso file i open isntaller.exe its same ? | 06:32 |
| Tomasu | Volvagia356: first sector of the disk | 06:32 |
| broken | dmi3on: Were you trying to speak to me in pm? To install something you must be root if you are doing so from terminal, basically just type "sudo apt-get / aptitude install program " | 06:32 |
| digital_1 | prolly if they were here they could answer that | 06:32 |
| Tomasu | MilitantPotato: the update manager doesnt. | 06:32 |
| CubeXombi | umm .. quick ask, wheres the repo list again? | 06:32 |
| MilitantPotato | Tomasu: yea it does | 06:32 |
| Volvagia356 | like hd(1,0) ? | 06:32 |
| nickrud | CubeXombi: /etc/apt | 06:32 |
| broken | If you want to remain root for an extended period of time use "sudo -i" | 06:32 |
| brad__ | It will ask where you want to install grub and you pick mbr | 06:32 |
| dmi3on | broken: its asking me to set dir | 06:32 |
| Tomasu | MilitantPotato: ah yeah, I kepe forgetting. its still a stupid error. | 06:32 |
| dmi3on | too | 06:32 |
| camgame | digital_1 I'm sorry I cann't understand the ariticle. any other way can solution my problem? | 06:33 |
| broken | Set directory? | 06:33 |
| Volvagia356 | but I have two harddisks! | 06:33 |
| Tomasu | they should have removed the package isntead of making it just fail | 06:33 |
| ztomic | To upgrade Samba type- #sambo whereareU | 06:33 |
| MilitantPotato | Agreed... | 06:33 |
| nickrud | dmi3on: just what are you trying to do? | 06:33 |
| brad__ | but only one is the master | 06:33 |
| Tomasu | talk about a newbie error :D | 06:33 |

| snadge | nickrud: why not? how are existing ubuntu dists created.. would it be possible for me to script it? or could i just rebuild specific packages manually? | 06:35 |
| digital_1 | camgame: you need to post this in a forum--- really it is beyond my ability to walk through in IRC. Post in the forums (www.ubuntuforums.org) in the Video and Multimedia forum. Far better experts than myself patrol those. That's the best advice I can give. Sorry I cannot help more. | 06:35 |

| nickrud | shishio: see http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads , under the debian-based distros they have a line you can add to your sources to get it using the uupdate-manager | 06:56 |
| prappl93 | You open it... .deb is Ubuntu I think | 06:56 |
| shea | dpkg -i thefile.deb | 06:56 |
| shea | er. | 06:56 |
| aleka | $ sudo apache2-ssl-certifcate | 06:56 |
| aleka | sudo: apache2-ssl-certifcate: command not found | 06:56 |
| broken | aleka: sudo apache2-ssl-certificate -days 365 <-- that doesn't work? | 06:56 |
| shishio | nickrud: okey ill try, ill pm u when im done | 06:57 |
| shea | what's the graphical deb installer called? gdebi? | 06:57 |
| Shadix | Well I Installed with the alternate CD so I could use text install and avoid the issue and choose the vesa driver for my ATI card (thopught that might be the issue since it was with 5.4) but still I boot and my monitor give me a blank screen and the green light falshes | 06:57 |
| shea | shishio, install gdebi (i think) | 06:57 |
| shea | then you should be able to just double-click the .deb | 06:57 |
| nickrud | shishio: don't ask me how to use virtualbox, I've never used it. Only vmware | 06:57 |
| prappl93 | Anyone know how to get Wine to work on all internet settings? | 06:57 |
| aleka | broken: Nope... I tried it.. but even if I was missing args, it would warn me instead of giving a command not found | 06:57 |
| broken | aleka: you spelled certificate wrong in the first one | 06:57 |
| greencookie | prappl93: you thinking of going windows to play WoW?:) | 06:57 |
| shishio | nickrud: whats vmware? | 06:57 |
| broken | apache2-ssl-certificate | 06:57 |
| greencookie | prappl93: if wine doesnt work? | 06:57 |
| shishio | shea: whats a gdebi? | 06:58 |
| nickrud | shishio: another virtualization technique, vmware.com | 06:58 |
| greencookie | !gdebi | 06:58 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about gdebi - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 06:58 |
| prappl93 | greencookie: No, I switched from Windows cause I screwed up my PC and this was the nearest OS disc I had at where I was | 06:58 |
| shishio | nickrud: same fuction as virtualbox? | 06:58 |
| prappl93 | greencookie: I am just trying to figure out how to get Wine to get WoW to download | 06:58 |
| nickrud | shishio: yes, not open source though. I use vmware for business reasons | 06:58 |
| greencookie | prappl93: I've been in that situation a lot of times. Infact, now I've completely switched over to ubuntu. | 06:58 |
| shea | shishio, it's a package you can install with synaptic. it will let you install .deb files via gui | 06:58 |
| prappl93 | greencookie: Do you play WoW? | 06:59 |
| aleka | broken: copied and pasted the commands from both wikis, as well as your text above... I am guessing I don't have the script for some reason | 06:59 |
| sfears | is the program that resizes on the live cd installed in ubuntu | 06:59 |
| greencookie | prappl93: as far as download you shud be able to just download it from website using Firefox. | 06:59 |
| greencookie | prappl93: lvl 70 human warlock:) | 06:59 |
| broken | aleka: hmm have you also tried tab completition :/ | 06:59 |
| sd32 | are all the versions of ubutu(kubuntu.etc) having the same problem with samba? | 06:59 |
| greencookie | nickrud: you're a businessman?:) | 06:59 |
| nickrud | sd32: yes | 06:59 |
| aleka | nothing comes up after "apache2-" | 06:59 |
| greencookie | prappl93: what bout urself? | 07:00 |
| nickrud | greencookie: no, I work in a non-profit. No grubby business for me ;) | 07:00 |
| sd32 | nickrud, thanks | 07:00 |
| broken | aleka: are you on gutssy? | 07:00 |
| aleka | broken: yeap | 07:00 |
| greencookie | nickrud: nonprofit? hmm hopefully some fringe benefits up that road:) | 07:00 |
| shishio | shea: so how will i use gdebi | 07:00 |
| IntuitiveNipple | Is there a system tool for configuring the system-wide locale setting (that sets the environment LANG) ? | 07:01 |
| prappl93 | greencookie: I have the .exe, but the thing is that Wine won't download any of the files because the terminal returns this: fixme:wininet:InternetSetOptionW Option INTERNET_OPTION_CONNECT_TIMEOUT (60000): STUB | 07:01 |
| prappl93 | fixme:wininet:InternetSetOptionW INTERNET_OPTION_SEND/RECEIVE_TIMEOUT not supported on protocol 4 | 07:01 |
| shea | shishio, after you install it, you will be able to double-click on the .deb file. | 07:01 |
| greencookie | !pastebin | prappl93 | 07:01 |
| ubotu | prappl93: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic) | 07:01 |

| shea | oh, i don't know anything about wine, sorry | 07:04 |
| broken | #winehq might be able to help out | 07:04 |
| __hase | Im very confused, when I start my computer I have an nvidia splash screen which makes me think i configured things right, but when I type glxinfo | grep rendering I get a weird and long error message | 07:05 |
| ztomic | #apache | 07:05 |
| shishio | shea: sudo apt-get install gdebi wont work,. how can install it via synaptic? | 07:05 |
| shea | run synaptic, search for 'gdebi' | 07:05 |
| offipso | I'm constantly getting this frustrating message in terminals: "you have mail in /var/spool/mail." The /var/spool/mail/myusername file contains nothing, however | 07:06 |
| offipso | how can I stop it? | 07:06 |
| ztomic | __hase: 1st get a name. second; try pastebin. | 07:07 |
| broken | 3rd, its probably not an error just a long message from glxinfo :D | 07:07 |
| ztomic | __hase: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ | 07:08 |
| shishio | shea: ok im done installin it, so should i proceed with downloading the .deb file? | 07:08 |
| aleka | broken: am reading thru it... looks like it takes a different appraoch (just copying key and key ring into /etc/ssl) thank you though... I will be giving this a try :)) | 07:08 |
| __hase | http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/44844/ | 07:08 |
| shea | shishio, sure | 07:09 |
| offipso | I hate this message! Help! How can I stop it from checking? | 07:09 |
| offipso | /var/spool/mail that is | 07:09 |
| ztomic | __hase: paste xorg.conf | 07:09 |
| broken | aleka: no problem, looks like something i need to do for my gentoo server as well. Good read for me too. :) | 07:09 |
| TomasuAway | I installed compiz fusion, and I cant for the life of me figure out how to start using it... | 07:09 |
| shea | offipso, i don't know for sure, but uninstalling 'mail' may work | 07:10 |
| nickrud | offipso: that's handled in /etc/pam.d/login , look for pam_mail.so , you can comment it out | 07:10 |
| shea | or it may be a cronjob. i actually forget | 07:10 |
| offipso | ah, yet I am using fetchmail, but the directory is /var/mail/, not /var/spool/mail | 07:10 |
| offipso | I'll check that pam.d..thanks | 07:10 |

| shishio | shea: hang on there ill be right back, ok? ^_^ im back to ask u the how-too's u cool with that? | 07:10 |
| thestu | hi guys - sillly nooby question - I managed remove the quick connection icon from the top right (near the date and time). Is there an easy way to put that back? | 07:11 |
| nickrud | TomasuAway: assuming you have everything right, alt-f2 compiz --replace && emerald --replace should start it up | 07:11 |
| broken | thestu: probably a notification area | 07:12 |
| TomasuAway | I know that never worked in my old upgraded 7.10... | 07:12 |
| ztomic | __hase: shouldnt nvidia be nv? and your monitor is wrong too. | 07:12 |
| TomasuAway | shouldnt it be easier? | 07:12 |
| TomasuAway | like a simple icon? | 07:12 |
| shea | shishio, sre | 07:12 |
| shea | sure | 07:12 |
| shishio | shea: thanks^^ | 07:12 |
| ztomic | __hase: 104,11,112 | 07:12 |
| nickrud | TomasuAway: yes, I'd agree, but that's the way I started it for testing on 7.10 , never got around to making it permanent. | 07:12 |
| ztomic | 111 | 07:12 |
| TomasuAway | nickrud: well it actually seems to work now that Im on a clean 7.10 install (and amd64 vs i386) | 07:13 |
| nickrud | TomasuAway: for academic purposes, if you ever figure out how to make it auto start, and you see me around, let me know? Someday there might be a usable ati driver | 07:14 |
| TomasuAway | heh | 07:14 |
| TomasuAway | well Im sure its possible to set it up to work via kdm's config file | 07:14 |
| TomasuAway | or the xsession stuff | 07:14 |
| vermi | dear #ubuntu, here's my current issue: I've configured vnc4server and finally have it up and running after a bit of an issue with the font directory. Now, when I log in, the only thing I see is a plain x desktop with the black X cursor. i've looked a few places, but pretty much everything I've seen has been from 2006 or so, and none of the old suggestions have done the trick | 07:14 |
| TomasuAway | I dunno honestly | 07:15 |
| joerlend | What does the T mean here? drwxrwx--T 11 root admin 4096 2007-11-17 08:14 vmware | 07:15 |
| Zaiden | Anyone here uses or used virtualbox in ubuntu before> | 07:15 |
| nickrud | yeah, I used that alt-f2 thing for a while, till I got tired of no suspend. And now, suspend doesn't work anyway. sucky | 07:15 |
| joerlend | Zaiden, yes. Do you have a question? | 07:16 |
| TomasuAway | Zaiden: yes, It works rather well. | 07:16 |
| TomasuAway | speed demon too | 07:16 |
| TomasuAway | even on my old athlon. | 07:16 |
| TomasuAway | on my new Q6000, its too fast ;D | 07:16 |
| TomasuAway | windows runs faster in VBox than on my real hardware | 07:16 |
| Zaiden | When you use VirtualBox, do you get sound with the OS you use in the program? | 07:16 |
| TomasuAway | yes | 07:16 |
| Zaiden | So I can use Ventrilo in VirtualBox that's running Windows XP? | 07:17 |

| joerlend | rdvon, "errors" are not precise. Copy them, paste them to a pastebin and post a link to that. rafb.net/paste is a good one. | 07:18 |
| nickrud | rdvon: try sudo apt-get install build-essential for the basic stuff | 07:18 |

| SiegeX | so its trivial for me | 07:39 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about broadband - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 07:39 |

| theelbermungster | hi everyone, i think i got a problem with Compiz. | 07:40 |
| Lustblader | peacepipejv: there are standard tutorials for each type of modem | 07:40 |

| fUD | CubeXombi: Oh cheers, Ill take a look at that | 07:40 |
| neztiti | SiegeX: the same problem | 07:40 |
| levis | what size is it | 07:40 |
| eythian | JDSBlueDevl: tried using apt-get rather than aptitude? | 07:40 |
| alex__ | is emerald now part of compiz? | 07:41 |
| theelbermungster | every time i enable it, the close/minimize/maximize bar dissapears. | 07:41 |
| SiegeX | greencookie: its not the best thing evar! but i think its cool cause its all done one one relativly small line of pure bash code | 07:41 |
| levis | \ | 07:41 |
| SiegeX | neztiti: what problem is that | 07:41 |
| SiegeX | ? | 07:41 |
| alex__ | is emerald now part of compiz? | 07:41 |
| broken | Beryl is now a pat of compiz. | 07:41 |
| alex__ | but what about emerald? | 07:42 |
| c0Ld | i feel like breaking something apparently...is there any way to make konqueror work with gnome? | 07:42 |
| broken | Well yes. | 07:42 |
| CubeXombi | usser / fUD "gkdudo gedit /etc/usplash.conf" and edit teh xres and yres, to whats is the standard on your monitor, then you'll have to "sudo update-usplash-theme usplash-theme-ubuntu" | 07:42 |
| broken | seeing as emerald is part of beryl. | 07:42 |
| JDSBlueDevl | as the default, probably not | 07:42 |
| JDSBlueDevl | but it can run | 07:42 |
| Shadix | what exactly is a "restricted driver"? | 07:42 |
| SiegeX | also, its a recursive function which bumps the cool factor up | 07:42 |
| alex__ | well i have compiz...but i cant seem to figure out how to install themes or anything like i used to be able to do with beryl | 07:42 |
| ztomic | c0Ld: sheesh! | 07:43 |
| broken | alex__: you probably need the fusion icon | 07:43 |
| alex__ | whats that> | 07:43 |
| broken | alex__: do you see an icon in the top corner as you did for beryl? | 07:43 |
| alex__ | no | 07:43 |
| alex__ | i was wondering why i didnt | 07:43 |
| === levis is now known as lbakalinsky | ||
| fUD | CubeXombi: Ok, we will do that | 07:43 |
| JDSBlueDevl | oy, now the splash screen after login won't go away. I now can't access the desktop! | 07:43 |
| peacepipejv | lustblader: no luck with tutorials | 07:43 |
| broken | yes then you will need it, im not sure how to do it for ubuntu as I've only used it on other distros | 07:43 |
| broken | Try searching synaptics for it. | 07:43 |
| Lustblader | peacepipejv: what exactly is the problem? | 07:43 |
| eythian | JDSBlueDevl: press alt-f1 | 07:43 |
| alex__ | synaptics? | 07:44 |
| eythian | JDSBlueDevl: or alt-ctrl-f1 | 07:44 |
| JDSBlueDevl | alt-F1 does nothing | 07:44 |
| broken | The package manager. | 07:44 |
| alex__ | hmmm... | 07:44 |
| CubeXombi | fUD: no sweat.. it worked for me hopefully should do the same for you | 07:44 |
| broken | alex__: I believe its at the top, system --> administration --> synaptics | 07:44 |
| eythian | JDSBlueDevl: perhaps also try f2 | 07:44 |
| fUD | CubeXombi: Yeah, was a bit painfull | 07:44 |
| fUD | ;) | 07:44 |
| Lustblader | CubeXombi: what to do? | 07:44 |
| eythian | if that doesn't work...does caps-lock cause the light to change? If not, the machine may have locked up. | 07:44 |
| JDSBlueDevl | crap, now my login won't work! | 07:44 |

| shea|up | It's a warning, but it causes gnome apps to wait for about 10 seconds before starting | 08:36 |
| disw | all these softwares in the menu subsections like games, system, settings, utilities, etc... | 08:37 |

| Arafangion | gdubzguru: For it to be truely "osx-like", you'd need an OpenStep system. | 08:39 |
| choudesh | disw: The menu in synaptic or the Menu beside Places and System | 08:39 |

| greencookie | riotkittie: ctrl+c = termination. lol | 09:14 |
| c0Ld | does installing konqueor in gnome tend to break alot? i really prefer it over firefox, but i don't want to use KDE over gnome | 09:15 |
| disw | riotkittie, maybe if you could get them by mail, wouldn't it be faster to install? | 09:15 |
| gluonman | c0Ld, konqueror has never really worked for me. But that's just my experience. | 09:15 |
| greencookie | ill be back with screen | 09:15 |
| leo_rockw | c0Ld: i'll answer the opposite to your question. i'm on kde and gtk apps work great for me. | 09:16 |
| riotkittie | oh dear. should not have hit that combo. | 09:16 |
| disw | Besides i hate to download all day even with broadband access | 09:16 |
| gluonman | leo_rockw, c0Ld, like I said, 'twas just my experience. Something else could have been the problem for me. | 09:16 |
| greencookie | screen is dope:) | 09:16 |
| riotkittie | yea, it is. til you hit the wrong key. | 09:17 |
| riotkittie | i'm still trying to figure out what i just did. hehe. | 09:17 |
| greencookie | lol riot, right now for me its the blind man and the elephant situation. i'm all experimental here. lol! | 09:17 |
| greencookie | riotkittie: me too! | 09:17 |

| riotkittie | what exactly is this 'something', disw | 09:22 |
| ubotu | disw: Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too. | 09:22 |
| riotkittie | elaborate. | 09:22 |
| Teknomancer | shishio: http://haiku-os.org | 09:22 |
| brobostigon | haiku is open source beos | 09:23 |

| magnetron | shishio: wikipedia has a nice article | 09:23 |
| Teknomancer | shishio: for beos you could checking wikipedia | 09:23 |
| shishio | ohh haiku is an operating system.. is it free | 09:23 |
| Teknomancer | shishio: yes | 09:23 |
| brobostigon | look beos up in wikipedia, it will tell you about haiku and beos there | 09:23 |
| MachuX | ciao | 09:23 |

| MachuX | what is the chan for italian user | 09:24 |
| riotkittie | disw: wired? wireless? | 09:24 |
| shishio | just like ubuntu, can i request a free cd to get haiku? | 09:24 |
| MachuX | ? | 09:24 |

| ubotu | MachuX newbie: please see above | 09:24 |
| brobostigon | haiku is alpha | 09:24 |
| Teknomancer | shishio: its not that advanced yet, i mean its still being written | 09:24 |
| disw | if i can't get online cause network settings screwed, then i can't download | 09:24 |
| MachuX | thanks riotkittie | 09:24 |
| riotkittie | yw | 09:25 |
| shishio | Teknomancer:: u know any chatroom that is about haiku? | 09:25 |
| disw | then have reinstall | 09:25 |
| FyreWulff | Hey everyone | 09:25 |
| Teknomancer | shishio: sure type /j #haiku | 09:25 |
| shishio | thanks, im a poet adik | 09:25 |
| Teknomancer | shishio: i've been a beos/haiku/zeta user/developer for years. | 09:25 |
| shishio | heheh | 09:25 |
| Teknomancer | haha | 09:25 |
| FyreWulff | I just upgraded from Fiesty to Gutsy and my NTFS partition doesn't mount anymore | 09:25 |
| riotkittie | if you cant get online on a fresh install, how's another fresh install going to remedy that? | 09:25 |
| shishio | Teknomancer:cool | 09:26 |
| shishio | Teknomancer: im sure Haiku will be popular heheh | 09:26 |
| jimcooncat | in gnome, is there a command to tile windows? | 09:26 |
| Teknomancer | shishio: there's a long way to go, but when its done it should be a very good OS for desktop use. | 09:26 |
| brobostigon | haiku looks interesting and promising, but it doesnt really do much yet. | 09:27 |
| Teknomancer | true | 09:27 |
| disw | if i mess with system settings, like turning on or off udev or mount-bootclean in system services in sysstem settings, then everything is screwed and have to reinstall again | 09:27 |
| riotkittie | as much as i'd love to help, i've been waiting 3 mins to find out what kind of connection you have. at this rate, i may never sleep again. | 09:27 |
| Teknomancer | making haiku is all the more difficult because its not based on any linux or unix, its from the scratch (based on beos but beos is closed source) | 09:27 |
| disw | believe me don't ever touch udev settings in system services | 09:28 |
| FyreWulff | Anyone have any idea how to get my NTFS partition to mount again? | 09:28 |

| leo_rockw | a couple of kernels ago i lost pcm functionality... today after a restart the slider in the mixer disappeared completely. is there any way to get pcm working again? | 09:32 |
| riotkittie | there are plenty of ways to learn. like reading. or installing in a vm, or mirroring an install so you have one you're free to hose | 09:32 |
| greencookie | riotkittie: screen is just too l3333t :) ^_^ | 09:32 |
| jimcooncat | greencookie: welcome to the majick of screen | 09:32 |
| greencookie | jimcooncat: Yes!! I love it jim. Now i dont need to keep doing ctrl+alt+2-9 | 09:33 |
| riotkittie | greencookie: yeah, i love it. especially when SSHing in to my desktop from the couch. heehee. | 09:33 |
| ere4si | leo_rockw: if you right click the sound icon in the panel - click pref - then pcm - what happens? | 09:33 |
| leo_rockw | greencookie: i learned about screen today too... but i've been using yakuake so screen is not THAT great for me | 09:33 |
| greencookie | riotkittie: lol I gotta learn ssh! | 09:33 |
| greencookie | !yakuake | 09:33 |

| leo_rockw | greencookie: a quake like terminal | 09:34 |
| riotkittie | leo_rockw: i dont see how a drop down terminal is greater than screen. | 09:34 |
| leo_rockw | ere4si: i don't have the option | 09:34 |
| leo_rockw | riotkittie: i didn't say it was greater | 09:34 |

| leo_rockw | riotkittie: i said that after using yakuake screen doesn't offer those many advancements (but there are some) | 09:35 |
| greencookie | leo_rockw: is it like tty? | 09:35 |
| JimmyDee | my oh my riotkittie is up late | 09:35 |
| greencookie | or like putty? | 09:35 |
| riotkittie | JimmyDee: not really. | 09:35 |
| leo_rockw | greencookie: it is like a regular terminal, but it is dropdown, and you can have many open in the same window (kinda like konsole, but w/o tabs) | 09:35 |
| JimmyDee | anyone know anything about asterisk? the #asterisk people are sleepin | 09:36 |
| leo_rockw | ere4si: i'm on kde. if i right click on the sound icon and click on "select master channel" pcm doesn't even show up | 09:36 |
| leo_rockw | ere4si: it used to, tho | 09:36 |
| greencookie | leo_rockw: well, I decided to go hardcore and not load the ubuntu GUI at all, so everything is from bash. No windows:) | 09:37 |

| leo_rockw | greencookie: bitchx + finch + mpg321 + lynx... what else do you need? lol | 09:38 |
| disw | why didn't they warn in big letters not to touch udev settings? | 09:38 |
| ere4si | leo_rockw: upgrades can break things so a reinstall of the drivers sounded right n | 09:39 |
| riotkittie | disw: nobody should have to warn you not to go toying with something in the administration menu if you dont know what it is or what it does | 09:39 |
| terry__ | how come when I run games at full screen or so x restarts itself when i quit them? | 09:39 |
| greencookie | leo_rockw: hm I used to have lynx but now its replaced by elinks, instead of mpg321 I got sox, but whats bitchx and finch? | 09:39 |
| greencookie | disw: The world is your ashtray:) | 09:40 |
| leo_rockw | ere4si: yeah... fist i lost lfe and then pcm... kinda weird. i'm not desperate to have them back, but it would be nice lol | 09:40 |
| riotkittie | bitchx is another irc client. irssi is superior to it. | 09:40 |
| riotkittie | finch is pidgin/gaim on the cli | 09:40 |
| leo_rockw | greencookie: yeah, irc. i never tried irssi or bitchx | 09:40 |
| pipatron | irssi <3 | 09:40 |
| leo_rockw | greencookie: finch is good tho | 09:40 |
| ere4si | leo_rockw: is it intel sound? | 09:40 |
| greencookie | oh bitchx is alternative to irssi? | 09:41 |
| leo_rockw | ere4si: yeah, hda | 09:41 |
| leo_rockw | greencookie: i tried elinks and didn't like it. i'll have to try sox | 09:41 |
| pipatron | leo_rockw: w3m | 09:41 |
| greencookie | right now my 2 most used programs are irssi and elinks. now screen is coming up. | 09:41 |
| pipatron | leo_rockw: Best console browser | 09:41 |

| greencookie | pipatron: how do I configure irssi /openurl to open url in new screen in elinks? | 09:41 |
| greencookie | ah leo_rockw got a nice name to it:D | 09:42 |
| pipatron | greencookie: I have no idea. | 09:42 |
| greencookie | pipatron: ok | 09:42 |
| leo_rockw | greencookie: haha, true | 09:42 |
| pipatron | greencookie: /openurl is not an irssi command, must be some script? | 09:42 |
| terry__ | so does anyone know why x restarts if i have a full screen game running and quit? | 09:43 |
| pipatron | terry__: I only know that's not normal :) | 09:43 |
| leo_rockw | ere4si: yup, i did all that when i installed feisty. my sound does work now, it's just that there's no pcm. | 09:43 |
| pipatron | terry__: Is it all games? | 09:43 |
| terry__ | havent tried but I remember on gutsy it was | 09:43 |
| leo_rockw | ere4si: well, i can live w/o pcm anway. thank you for your help | 09:44 |

| leo_rockw | c0Ld: if you have enough free space you can keep FF and konqueror. if konqueror doesn't work as expected just get rid of it. | 09:47 |
| newguy | ya but theres folders deeper in the file hierarchy, so deleting the .mozilla folder will just leave behind some mess | 09:47 |

| boontoo | today i bought a nintendo ds lite, i have heaps of backed up games, i cant put them onto my DS without going to the nintendo stores and game stores and downloading it off their wifi, i heard that you can set up your wifi so that it can act as a DS download server, so far ive made my wifi an access point, and i have a windows howto for how to get this to work but i dont know how to do it under linux, any ideas? | 09:58 |
| iiioiooo | hiya! I want to backup 2 of my folders (recursive) on a daily basis. I got built in 2 identical harddrives in my computer so fakeraid would be an option. anyways, I wonder if rsync would be good enough for what I need. Or are there any other options? It should be easy to set up though as I am a newbie... recommendations very much welcome. | 09:59 |
| newbe2100 | I have the ubuntu 7.10 with compiz-fusion and I installed emerald theme manager,How can I attach a different image to each cube face | 09:59 |
| ere4si | newguy: from the ubuntuzilla download- yes? | 09:59 |
| Teknomancer | rsync should be there for Ubuntu | 09:59 |
| Teknomancer | i think rsync is the best for your task iiioiooo, although i'm yet to use it myself | 09:59 |
| iiioiooo | Teknomancer: yes, so do you recommend that for me? | 09:59 |
| iiioiooo | Teknomancer: ok thx | 10:00 |

| pipatron | newbe2100: No one knew the first time you asked | 10:03 |
| Teknomancer | btw, does Ubuntu enable compiz stuff by default?? or must i download it and enable it, edit xorg.conf etc? | 10:03 |
| greencookie | drat | 10:03 |
| ere4si | !compiz | 10:03 |
| jimcooncat | greencookie: I've tried freeshell.org but it's not very much fun. There are bound to be better ones in the lists, I see some of them run ubuntu. But actually I pay for the one I use, because I'm using it for production | 10:03 |

| leo_rockw | jimcooncat: what kind of stuff can you do with the shell account? | 10:03 |
| newguy | ere4si as far as i can see on the forums and sourceforge, ubuntuzilla only tells you how to remove ubuntuzilla itself, and not the dl updated version of FF :/ | 10:04 |
| jimcooncat | leo_rockw: most of the free ones give you access to many command line programs, and some give you web hosting. Usually you're limited on space, but the connection is fast. | 10:05 |
| leo_rockw | jimcooncat: thank you. that sounds pretty interesting, i'll investigate more. | 10:05 |
| lachoss | hi. i can't get sound to work on gutsy. i've got an integrated via VT8233/A/8235/8237 AC97 Audio Controller. the ac97 module is loaded, volume for master and pcm are way up and not muted, iec things are disabled but totem looks like it should sound (numbers go on and such) but i get no sound. any ideas? thx! | 10:05 |
| ere4si | newguy: only can suggest a post then - don't use ubuntuzilla - have read that it downloads to /opt so would look there for firefox | 10:06 |
| newguy | ah ok ty | 10:06 |
| ere4si | k | 10:06 |
| jimcooncat | leo_rockw: if you get a good one you can filter your email with it, so you're not downloading spam. I actually use a paid one for that that lets me run ubuntu on it | 10:06 |
| newguy | ere4si omg i see, so *hopefuly* if i was to delete the firefox in /opt, would this remove firefox completely from the system? | 10:07 |
| ere4si | !sound | lachoss | 10:07 |
| ubotu | lachoss: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 10:07 |
| leo_rockw | jimcooncat: i heard about shell accounts before, but never dealt with them myself. i think the time has come to find out more about them lol. thank you for your help. | 10:08 |
| ere4si | newguy: don't know the workings of ubuntuzilla but that would stop it from starting :) | 10:08 |

| SpudULike | Anyone know anything about .amv files. I am trying to watch a video snatched off an mp4 player. None of my usual tools seem to handle amv. | 10:13 |
| dbe | SpudULike: Try VLC. | 10:13 |
| brobostigon | vlc should do it, it plays everything | 10:14 |
| SpudULike | dbe: I installed vlc for this purpose, do I need to add some other package for video? I don't get any video options. | 10:14 |
| ere4si | SpudULike: this should help - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AMV_video_format | 10:15 |
| dbe | SpudULike: Settings > Preferences. | 10:15 |
| SpudULike | ere4si: Why didn'y my Google search bring that up :-* | 10:16 |
| dbe | SpudULike: VLC does not have all the proprietary codecs installed. It cannot play WMV for instance. | 10:16 |
| Jiakai | hello | 10:16 |

| Mago | bom dia a todos | 10:21 |
| Crozar | dbe, just give me the tips i can work it out | 10:21 |
| dbe | Crozar: No. Just download a Linux source distribution from kernel.org. | 10:21 |
| pr0tius | you can add a repository by editing your sources.list file right? | 10:21 |
| Crozar | dbe, you got to be kidding me | 10:21 |
| Crozar | Pici, you there | 10:21 |
| jburd | pr0tius: Nope. Adding a local Ubuntu mirror to the mirrors list. | 10:22 |

| Crozar | Pir8,are you theyr?> | 10:22 |
| pr0tius | I'm a n00b | 10:22 |
| pr0tius | =) | 10:22 |
| Crozar | what help you want pr0tius ? | 10:22 |
| janerik_ | Help please. I am using update manager, and there are 3 packages that do not install I get an error. And the system keep telling me that there are 3 awaylible updates. This is one of the errors: W: Kunne ikke hente (Could not get) http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/s/samba/libsmbclient_3.0.26a-1ubuntu2.1_i386.deb 403 Forbidden | 10:22 |
| jburd | For example, I wouldn't want to keep querying the Internet for packages and would like to have a mirror that is internal to our organization. | 10:22 |
| dbe | Crozar: Linux handles all the drivers and that is what you want to configure. You can also install the properly driver for your touchscreen but they are often part of Linux. | 10:22 |
| pr0tius | I was actually having a problem with my Samba, I figured it out though. | 10:23 |
| Crozar | janerik_, is it ubuntu or kubuntu | 10:23 |
| gluonman | janerik, those packages are bugs, and have been taken offline. | 10:23 |
| SpudULike | Bah, I think the .amv file I have is knackered reading the VLC logs. Just spent 15 minutes blaming MY technology ! | 10:23 |
| hickop | hello, is it possible to pass arguments to a .bashrc alias ? like : alias iso='sudo mount -t iso9660 -o loop $1 /mnt/iso/' (not working) | 10:23 |
| janerik_ | ubuntu, but use kde | 10:23 |
| pr0tius | I do have one question though. | 10:23 |
| gluonman | janerik, wait until they are re-released and they will work. | 10:23 |
| jburd | hickop: Nope. Write a script instead. | 10:23 |
| Crozar | janerik_, hmm.. my experience is with gnome sorry | 10:24 |
| jburd | And iso is a bad name. Use something unambiguous. mountimage or something. | 10:24 |
| gluonman | pr0tius, what is your one question? | 10:24 |
| Crozar | i dunno why people using KDE , it looks more tougher to use and harder , they made it more complicated rather then simple lo | 10:24 |
| janerik_ | Crosar. All the 3 errors are samba packages | 10:24 |
| pr0tius | i have a *.dmg image I am trying to MOUNT - but i'm not sure I'm mounting it correctly, I have installed hfs utilities from apt-get. Here is an example " mount -t hfs -o loop /path/to/*.dmg /mount/point | 10:25 |
| gluonman | janerik_, ignore them. They are bugs and will be re-issued once cleaned. | 10:25 |
| gluonman | janerik_, once that happens, you can install them. | 10:25 |
| Crozar | janerik_, i dunno if in KDE you can change your source of download , because main server always have problems sometimes , change mirrors and /j #kubuntu for more help on how to change source of download | 10:25 |
| arinomi | When I am trying to view video files in MPlayer or Totem, the colors are all dark, I can't see anything. Why is that? | 10:26 |
| jburd | Crozar: There are too many problems with it too. Even if the GUI framework KDE is based on is dual-licensed, the pricing for commercial development is ridiculously high. USD 6600 per developer per platform. One of the reasons I avoid using Qt applications. | 10:26 |
| gluonman | crozar, the reason he can't install the samba packages is because they have been taken offline. | 10:26 |
| astro76 | !sambabug | 10:26 |
| ubotu | A defect has been identified in a recent security update and as a result the associated packages have been taken offline. Please disregard any 403 errors you may receive when trying to apply updates. They will disappear once this problem is resolved. | 10:26 |
| ere4si | pr0tius: this says that's for macs - http://filext.com/file-extension/DMG | 10:26 |

| Teknomancer | can i upgrade to the next Ubuntu release (after gutsy gibbon, herdy heron or something) thru Synaptic ? | 10:27 |
| c0Ld | I'm playing around with konqueror on gnome, and it didn't come with a search box like I thought it did -- does anyone know where I can install one? | 10:27 |
| jburd | pr0tius: Use dmg2iso to convert it to an ISO file first. | 10:27 |
| pr0tius | yes, I know its for macs, i have a Perl Script to convert it to a ISO, but I can't mount it. | 10:27 |
| jburd | pr0tius: Then mount the ISO image. | 10:27 |
| Crozar | i have a wacom touch screen tablet and my touch screen is not supported out of the box with ubuntu :( | 10:27 |
| gluonman | Teknomancer, you do it through update manager. | 10:27 |

| jburd | Teknomancer: irc.gimp.org#gnome | 10:29 |
| pr0tius | jburd well, I gave it to my friend, I cant even burn the *.dmg file by itself.. so I compressed it and copied it to a dual layer disk.. then my friend extracted it and it worked on his mac. | 10:29 |
| Teknomancer | jburd: thanks | 10:29 |
| pr0tius | i don't even have a MAC computer. I'm doing this to test the HFS file system. | 10:29 |

| ere4si | qos: openoffice saves in msoffice format if that helps | 11:06 |
| thejusticecow | terry__: you are not using gnome? | 11:06 |
| terry__ | I am | 11:06 |

| pr0tius | ok tinman I found the hard drive -- lemme see if I can mount it. | 11:08 |
| terry__ | I dont have the configure app at all... | 11:08 |

| qos | ere4si, okay. i will give it a try | 11:09 |

| mediahunter | just to let everyone know i got the wifi working | 11:09 |
| mediahunter | thank you | 11:09 |
| ere4si | qos: openoffice also has "impress" - a powerpoint alternative | 11:09 |

| bullgard4 | Teknomancer: The C bible of Kernighan/Ritchie does not list 'plain old datastructure' either. So, again, is 'simple data type' a technical term of the C programming language or not? How is it defined? | 11:41 |
| Volvic | pelletut: I think you have to enter the rescue mod, and then you got some options like "restore GRUB" or something like this | 11:41 |

| Teknomancer | bullgard4: i haven't come across 'simple data type' either, but my guess its the same as POD, whose explaination is there in that link (esp. memory layout). | 11:43 |

| fsckr | neopsyche, I dont know how you have your partitions but I found the best way is when you install ubuntu have your home folder on a separate partition :) | 12:04 |
| neopsyche | hmm... | 12:04 |
| neopsyche | I have installed ubuntu default | 12:04 |
| fizzle | neopsyche: you could image the drive and move it over to the new one if you have the capabilities, or you could just backup your home folder and move it over to your fresh install | 12:04 |
| SigmaOrion | neopsyche, is the other PC a exact clone of the first one? | 12:05 |
| neopsyche | The thing is.. I have a lot of things installed on here that I dont want to have to Re-Download.. | 12:05 |

I can only manually configure the interfaces. it doesn't "see"(dbus/hal?) when I stick in the ethernet cable and it doesn't list the available wireless-networks nearby, I can only "configure manually", I am using the latest gutsy gibbon. Thank you for your help. I would also like to give debug-output, just tell me where to get it. | 13:03 |

| Balaams_Miracle | !sudo | FalandA | 14:45 |
| FalandA | damnnnnnnnn | 14:45 |

I tried installing the driver CD that came with the mouse, but its all .exe | 14:52 |

| Balaams_Miracle | dn: press ctrl+alt+f1 | 14:57 |
| dn | when i say a flashing _ i mean JUST that.. not a command prompt | 14:57 |
| turb1 | hez there | 14:57 |
| juano__ | LiquidHelium: ok, cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | grep mouse | 14:57 |
| dn | Balaams_Miracle: pressing that while in an X session just brings me to the flashing _ again | 14:58 |
| dn | it a) doesn't kill X b) doesn't allow me to input anything | 14:58 |
| turb1 | how can I burn a CD from a live cd system? | 14:58 |
| Balaams_Miracle | dn: and what hapens if you press ctrl+alt+f2 ? | 14:58 |
| juano__ | LiquidHelium: is this a 3 button mouse ? middle button netcrawler ? | 14:58 |
| dn | nothing | 14:58 |
| LiquidHelium | juano__: a 5 button | 14:58 |
| gogeta | dn stop gdm then sudo killall x | 14:58 |
| dn | if i kill gdm i cannot input anything! | 14:58 |
| gogeta | dn hummm | 14:59 |
| juano__ | LiquidHelium: ok try that i told you and instead of mouse put protocol | 14:59 |
| turb1 | I wana burn super grub and am booting from liveCD | 14:59 |
| gogeta | dn man i wish they didnt change the init modes | 14:59 |
| turb1 | how can i open mz CD drive | 14:59 |
| gogeta | dn init 3 used to work great with x issues | 14:59 |
| juano__ | it should say PS/2 , IMPS/2 or somethin like that | 14:59 |
| LiquidHelium | juano__: What? Do i put that in the konsole? | 14:59 |
| m1r | hello | 14:59 |
| juano__ | LiquidHelium: yes | 14:59 |
| dn | what about telinit 3? | 14:59 |
| LiquidHelium | Ok | 14:59 |
| gogeta | dn yea init 3 still loads gdm now | 15:00 |
| dn | what about 2? | 15:00 |
| gogeta | dn same it doesent depend on run levels now | 15:00 |
| gogeta | dn i think you can edit it so it does again | 15:00 |
| LiquidHelium | juano__: Can you send me what I have to put in again, so I can write it down, at the monent im unable to use my mouse :P | 15:01 |
| LiMaO | hey, when i run gens from the terminal it works just fine, but when i try to launch it from the gnome menu, it freezes. i've checked it with alacarte and the menu uses the same command i run on the terminal. is there an explanation for that? | 15:01 |
| jrib | dn: there is a bug on bugs.ubuntu.com (with solutions) for your problem | 15:01 |
| juano__ | LiquidHelium: cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | grep protocol | 15:01 |
| turb1 | is it possible to burn using the live CD? | 15:01 |
| gogeta | dn you can try runlevel 1 | 15:01 |
| juano__ | LiquidHelium: lol.. right | 15:01 |
| gogeta | dn rescue mode | 15:02 |
| LiMaO | turb1: i think that it's possible as long as you have 2 or more drives | 15:02 |
| batis610 | wich utility allow me to use "Remote Desktop Connection" from ubuntu to XP | 15:02 |
| LiMaO | turb1: i mean, you can't take out the livecd off the drive and put something else in there | 15:02 |
| turb1 | LiMaO: sad... | 15:02 |
| dn | rescue mode doesn't work | 15:02 |
| dn | i need to work out why ctrl+alt+f1 doesn't bring me to the proper prompt | 15:02 |
| turb1 | LiMaO: so there is no waz to burn a rescue CD... | 15:02 |
| gogeta | dn init 1 would be single user text | 15:02 |
| turb1 | way | 15:02 |
| jrib | batis610: tsclient? | 15:02 |
| gogeta | dn knothing starts | 15:03 |
| batis610 | jrib:I'll try it....thks | 15:03 |
| gogeta | dn or you can remove gdm from start | 15:03 |
| LiMaO | turb1: what do you mean by rescue cd? if you're willing to make a backup, use the livecd to create an ISO of your harddrive. then logon to the system normally and burn that ISO you just made | 15:03 |
| humbolto | has anybody ever converted a vmware VM to Xen? | 15:04 |
| gogeta | dn rather then stop use remove | 15:04 |
| turb1 | LiMaO: I want to use the supergrub disk wich i have as an iso | 15:04 |
| gogeta | dn then on reboot it should not start | 15:04 |
| juano__ | LiquidHelium: paste me your output in pastebin | 15:04 |
| ArthurArchnix | turb1: Just tuning in to your conversation, what are you trying to do? | 15:05 |
| turb1 | LiMaO: I have an existing Ubuntu partition and want to restore grub now | 15:05 |
| ricanelite | anyone here uses AWN? | 15:05 |
| batis610 | jrib: It's a gnome client.... I'm using Kubuntu | 15:05 |
| turb1 | ArthurArchnix: I destroyed it with partmagic [of course] | 15:05 |
| ricanelite | cause everytime I restart my computer AWN does not start up | 15:05 |
| LiMaO | sorry, had to restart X | 15:06 |
| jrib | batis610: it will still work, search the repos for rdesktop I suupose if you need something else | 15:06 |
| LiMaO | turb1: what was your answer to my last question? | 15:06 |
| ricanelite | I have to go to Applications >Accessories and open Avant Window | 15:06 |
| turb1 | LiMaO: I have an existing Ubuntu partition and want to restore grub now | 15:06 |
| ArthurArchnix | turb1: You destroyed grub on the mbr and want to restore it? Ahh.. so that's why you're asking about a restore cd. | 15:06 |
| LiMaO | turb1: and what are you trying to burn/backup? | 15:06 |
| turb1 | LiMaO: supergrub | 15:07 |
| jrib | batis610: krdc maybe | 15:07 |
| LiMaO | oh.. i don't know anything related to grub and problems with it, sorry | 15:07 |
| riotkittie | turb1: any reason you want to use super grub over ... grub itself? | 15:08 |
| turb1 | ArthurArchnix: a way to restore grub by hand would help as well, i have a standard winxp/ubuntu setup | 15:08 |
| ArthurArchnix | turb1: And it doesn't boot at all, or does it boot but not give you all options, or what? | 15:08 |
| gogeta | turb1 super grub | 15:08 |
| gogeta | turb1 the live cd | 15:09 |
| turb1 | i get Error 17 | 15:09 |
| gogeta | turb1 or you can use the ubuntu installer | 15:09 |
| juano__ | turb1: paste me your grub.conf and fdisk -l in pastebin | 15:09 |
| gogeta | !grub | 15:09 |

| gogeta | thers guids right there | 15:10 |
| ArthurArchnix | sudo cat /boot/grub/menu.lst | 15:10 |
| gogeta | how to use the live cd to restore and so on | 15:10 |
| turb1 | gogeta: thats why i wanted to install supergrub in the first place | 15:10 |
| batis610 | jrib: it works..... thks | 15:11 |
| juano__ | turb1: sudo cat /boot/grub/menu.lst && sudo fdisk -l | 15:11 |
| juano__ | turb1: paste me those outputs | 15:11 |
| ArthurArchnix | turb1: It may not be necessary to use the supergrub disc to restore. Let's take a look at the menu.lst and fdisk -l first... just like juano says | 15:11 |
| minus198 | Hi, I have this friend that get automatically logged out if he has more than 1 program running in Ubuntu. | 15:11 |

| juano__ | FalandA: nano rules | 15:15 |
| jrib | minus198: google for "advanced bash scripting guide" | 15:15 |
| FalandA | yeah ;) | 15:15 |

| jrib | FalandA: pfft | 15:15 |
| adac2 | riotkittie: yea I know that it is possible with ndiswrapper...but I just was wondering cause it should work right out of the box...this is weird... :( | 15:16 |
| FalandA | Balaams_Miracle are you there ;) | 15:16 |
| Balaams_Miracle | FalandA: Yes, just came back. I do not use Compiz myself, it slows down my work. | 15:16 |

| adac2 | gogeta: linux sucks with wireless issues | 15:17 |
| riotkittie | adac2: should it? ehh. i have no personal experience with rt73 myself, but have an earlier revision of your adapter, which is also ralink based [and has been a total nightmare, native drivers or not] | 15:17 |

| keldar | hi, alright I ran 'fdisk -l' and saw the two partitions I wished to add to 'fstab', so I added the lines "/dev/sda1 /media/SYSTEM defaults,umask=007,gid=46 0 1" and "/dev/sda2 /media/DATA defaults,umask=007,gid=46 0 1" to no avail | 16:12 |
| Teknomancer | Jessid: there might be a grub option to password protect it, but hide i don't think grub has such an option. | 16:12 |

| DefineKyleThyne | Arthur: Sorry about leaving like that, my firefox froze on me. | 16:13 |
| Teknomancer | Jessid: i'm checking XOSL a bootloader like grub , to see if it has such a hide option | 16:13 |
| gogeta | Jessid they cant stop you from installing it | 16:13 |
| wolfprint | ArthurArchnix, I would think that there would be a way though through some sort of manual editing of a file for that particular panel but guess not | 16:13 |
| DrCortex | lol flood, like in new orleans | 16:13 |
| juano__ | LiquidHelium: try this, alt + f2, then type gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 16:13 |

| Jessid | Teknomancer thanks!!! | 16:13 |
| gogeta | Jessid just cant use it at work | 16:13 |
| gogeta | Jessid so then you just boot windows | 16:14 |
| mosibfu | Jessid, install linux, do fdisk /mbr to delete the grub from pc, and burn supergrub onto a cd, then u can only boot linux with that cd in the cdromdrive | 16:14 |
| Teknomancer | Jessid: if its your personal laptop, they cannot prevent you from installing it. | 16:14 |
| sergiu | hi anyone know any good video streaming for linux? | 16:14 |
| LiquidHelium | juano__: Alright, done and saved, what now? | 16:15 |
| Jessid | mosibfu uy that sounds very nice...supergrub? i will check for that immediately...thanks!!!! | 16:15 |
| DrCortex | ok wtf I'm trying to open a music file and it just says 'error opening sound device' | 16:15 |
| Teknomancer | Jessid: i think Xosl has the hide option | 16:15 |
| Matic`Makovec | Arguing with a friend so asking here. How many of you use HP notebook and have 64bit Gutsy working as it has to? | 16:15 |
| mosibfu | Jessid: your welcome ;) | 16:15 |

| Teknomancer | http://www2.arnes.si/~fkomar/xosl.org/manual/user/5.html (see Partition hiding) | 16:15 |
| Teknomancer | ah yes mosibfu's idea is a good one as well | 16:15 |
| Jessid | Teknomancer i will check for that right now. Thanks a lot!!!! | 16:16 |
| juano__ | LiquidHelium: ok, let me check to see if there is another option you have to add too | 16:16 |
| XiXaQ | DrCortex: then go back to windows. If you're only going to complain anyway, you won't be missed. | 16:16 |
| Teknomancer | Jessid: but be careful | 16:16 |
| juano__ | LiquidHelium: you told me that your mouse just hanged after 10 minutes | 16:16 |
| Jessid | Teknomancer why? | 16:16 |
| Teknomancer | Jessid: installing a bootloader like xosl onto mbr needs care, just the usual warning. | 16:16 |
| juano__ | LiquidHelium: do all the buttons work fine though ? | 16:16 |
| Teknomancer | jessid carry on if you know what to do | 16:16 |
| LiquidHelium | juano__: No, the mouse just stops | 16:16 |

| venice | mosibfu: i work at a university, and unfortunately we have to support it, because all the new students are coming in with it. I could care less what it looks like, as long as it works. Vista Enterprise with no fancy stuff works great, fast and efficient. | 16:32 |
| Teknomancer | juano__: sure i'm no fan of vista, just pointing out its not all that bad | 16:32 |
| juano__ | Teknomancer: yep, i still like xp more | 16:33 |

| Daisuke_Ido | juano__: since it's just windows 2000 with a facelift, your source was wrong. | 16:34 |
| ArthurArchnix | wolfprint: I think the file you want is found in your usr theme folder. Do "locate gtkrc" and then "gksudo gedit /usr/share/themes" followed by the actual theme name and full path of the gtk-rc file | 16:34 |

| void^ | Teknomancer: sudo caches the password for a couple of minutes (only used if it is invoked from the same terminal again). if you want to use su you can just set a password for root (sudo passwd), don't ever enable graphical root login. | 16:46 |

| maynards-girl | nickrud, thanks. i tried downloading from apache and installing it using the .configure, make and make install | 17:01 |
| meta4ical | Could anyone help me? I have an ATI Radeon X800 Pro and when I try to install the restricted drivers and restart I get a black screen? :O | 17:01 |

| josephk | meta4ical: why use the restricted drivers? | 17:02 |
| nickrud | maynards-girl: ah, the old compile trick :) According to https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apache/ , its available in feisty or dapper | 17:02 |
| ArthurArchnix | wolfprint: I browsed the bugzilla's and what we're trying to do is currently forwarded to the gnome-panel development team as a feature request. | 17:02 |
| nickrud | maynards-girl: any particular reason not to use 2.2 ? | 17:02 |
| maynards-girl | nickrud, thanks. i'll look into that | 17:02 |
| meta4ical | josephk: Because this is my first time trying Ubuntu and it's the only method I read about and could understand :( | 17:02 |
| ArthurArchnix | wolfprint: Thus, it's not possible and you must either expand or use avant. | 17:02 |
| maynards-girl | nickrud, 1.3 is installed on the production server | 17:02 |
| wolfprint | ArthurArchnix, thanks for the help - yea hope they have it done "yesterday" lol | 17:02 |

| matthew_ | what directory do I put my python modules in? | 17:03 |
| nickrud | maynards-girl: figured it'd be something like that; look closely at dapper, it's probably got the right php if you need that as well | 17:03 |
| camgame | what size I can set it? | 17:03 |
| ArthurArchnix | wolfprint: You can help by adding your support to the bug report here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-panel/+bug/46659 | 17:03 |
| Noodels | Matthew : Depends what you're trying to do. | 17:03 |
| meta4ical | it does but I things like desktop effects etc are kind of choppy, I also wanted to do some light wine gaming | 17:03 |
| matthew_ | Noodels: I don't understand. I have a module, I want to put it in the search path. where is that? | 17:04 |
| ArthurArchnix | wolfprint: It's been on file now for over a year, so increased attention from users is probably a good thing. | 17:04 |
| larson9999 | what's the tool to recover partition tables? | 17:04 |
| josephk | meta4ical: I have a ATI 9600 and the restricted drivers does not work with compiz effects. How much memory is on your graphics card? | 17:04 |
| WorkingOnWise | what is the command to be able to control the cpu speed with gnome powermanager? | 17:05 |
| Noodels | Matthew: Ah, I'm not sure about that, I usually just use small modules I make myself in the directory my program is in. | 17:05 |

| jcd | ? | 17:10 |
| jcd | exit | 17:10 |
| josephk | meta4ical: Want to do a side window? | 17:10 |

After some searching, i found out that only the newest drivers support Bamboo Fun, namely the beta linuxwacom drivers. But, i'm very inexperienced with compiling kernels and stuff. How do i do this all? can anybody help me with installing my tablet? | 17:35 |

| bazhang | einnar: have you tried launching alsamixer (from the terminal)? | 17:37 |
| meta4ical | Could anyone help me install the drivers for my x800 Pro, I tried the restricted drivers as well as the Binary HOWTO. Everytime I reboot it's to a black screen. Here's my xorg.conf the only difference being I had to go "vesa" instead of "fglrx" | 17:37 |
| gravemind | hey guys see if you ever heard of this problem before - opening the folder that has all my music takes ~10seconds and uses my system resources! | 17:37 |
| Nutubuntu | meta4ical, pastebin it please | 17:37 |
| rambo3 | fab5freddy, i am not shure , you have info in what ubotu told you and you need syslinux i think instead of grub. | 17:37 |
| einnar | bazhang : yes, it loads, and I have adjusted everything to be in the top of the green. | 17:38 |
| larson9999 | Eminence, that was on sysresccd and worked great. thanks | 17:38 |
| greencookie | my desktop's ctr+alt+f1 function doesnt work anymore. Could someone let me know how I can fix that? | 17:38 |
| meta4ical | Yes I had the link ready it just didn't copy I guess, http://pastebin.com/d7727489 | 17:38 |
| Arelis | erUSUL: but recompiling the kernel brings with it a LOT of risks.. | 17:38 |
| nickrud | Nutubuntu: hm, do you have gnome open? | 17:38 |
| talcite | oh, I'm having a problem with my system clock consistently being 10 minutes slow | 17:38 |
| erUSUL | Arelis: maybe you can just compile the drivers itself... for this you usually need build essential and 'sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)' | 17:38 |
| bazhang | einnar: to save them with those settings after a reboot: sudo alsactl store 0 | 17:38 |
| talcite | It's on NTP | 17:38 |
| Nutubuntu | nickrud no, not afaik - no gnome thing will run | 17:38 |
| Eminence | larson9999, cool | 17:38 |
| erUSUL | Arelis: build-essential (a package) | 17:38 |
| nickrud | Nutubuntu: ah, well that's up when a gnome-terminal is open ... | 17:38 |
| einnar | bazhang : I've rebooted a few times, and they've not changed | 17:39 |
| Arelis | erUSUL: how? can i just compile the drivers and load them, without recompiling the kernel? and if so, how? and what other libraries do I need? | 17:39 |
| bazhang | einnar: though you may want to try disabling the mic as a test | 17:39 |
| nickrud | Nutubuntu: what alt-fx is your X on? | 17:39 |
| rambo3 | !insmod | 17:39 |
| fab5freddy | rambo3: yes i have those options.. and tried them but i want to do a complete install of ubuntu and not certain how do to this via the wubu or lubu project.. i don't even think it is possible | 17:39 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about insmod - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 17:39 |
| greencookie | nickrud: its on alt+ctrl+f7 | 17:39 |
| rambo3 | Arelis, insmod | 17:39 |
| gravemind | hey what can I do if nautilus takes too long to open a folder? | 17:39 |
| nickrud | greencookie: should be, but isn't always | 17:39 |
| |unjustice| | juano? | 17:39 |
| einnar | bazhang : still static | 17:40 |
| erUSUL | Arelis: dunno usually the tar.gz come with a README or INSTALL file that describes the process | 17:40 |
| Nutubuntu | nickrud - I don't think I have a gnome-terminal running; X is on ctl-alt-F7 | 17:40 |
| Arelis | erUSUL: do i need to remove the packaged wacom drivers first? | 17:40 |
| greencookie | nickrud: ah ok. | 17:40 |
| desertc | gravemind: restart x? | 17:40 |
| greencookie | is there a way to enable/disable the alt+ctrl+fx keyboard shortcuts? | 17:40 |
| slackern | gravemind, you could run < killall -1 nautilus > in a terminal that will kill and restart it for you | 17:40 |
| mogra | does anyone know if Atheros AR5212 works in Gutsy out of box? | 17:40 |
| gravemind | desertc: its a chronic problem | 17:40 |
| nickrud | greencookie: for example, you can have an X running gnome on f7 , and another running kde on f8, and switch back and forth | 17:40 |
| desertc | greencookie: it's a menu item | 17:40 |
| juano__ | |unjustice|: yes | 17:41 |
| bazhang | einnar: there is a comprhensive sound card solution guide at ubuntuforums.org going through all the permutations | 17:41 |
| desertc | greencookie: oops, no it's not | 17:41 |
| diafic | mogra, yes, with very little work | 17:41 |
| greencookie | desertc: can u point me out? | 17:41 |
| gravemind | slackern: it happens all the time with this folder | 17:41 |
| |neon| | i am having an issue with deluge not opening if the firewall is enabled (i'm using guarddog to configure the setting) i do have bittorrent peer and tracker checked as permitted but unless i disable the firewall completely deluge won't open | 17:41 |
| greencookie | desertc: oh ok. | 17:41 |
| nickrud | Nutubuntu: ok, try the killall gdm thing, and look at your processes again | 17:41 |
| diafic | you just need to add the atheros restricted driver | 17:41 |
| diafic | I have the 5212 in my laptop :P | 17:41 |
| ceil420 | upgrading to Gutsy fixed my friend's soundcard after the comprehensive guide thing couldn't :x | 17:41 |
| nickrud | Nutubuntu: I mean, invoke-rc.d gdm stop | 17:41 |
| desertc | greencookie: system consoles are not configurable | 17:41 |
| rambo3 | fab5freddy, wuby is a windows based installer. you need to turne off system recovery in windows first , boot install and reboot into ubuntu. Thats it . now go to ubuntuforums and read about it | 17:41 |
| slackern | gravemind, no idea what can cause it im afraid, had something similar during beta phase of gutsy but it's never happend to me afterwards | 17:42 |
| einnar | bazhang : I was going through that before I got here. Step 3, I cannot find the driver for this card. | 17:42 |
| Nutubuntu | understood, nickrud | 17:42 |
| greencookie | desertc: on my desktop with gutsy, the ctrl+alt+fx keys dont work. any idea what the problem could be? | 17:42 |
| mogra | diafic, so I'd need to get the driver before installing so I can hook up to net, then, eh? | 17:42 |
| gravemind | slackern: I'll see what the guys at ##gnome have to say | 17:42 |
| diafic | no. | 17:42 |
| bazhang | einnar: ah, that might be a problem then | 17:42 |
| nickrud | desertc: not quite true, try sudo dpkg-reconfigure console-setup | 17:42 |
| diafic | well | 17:42 |
| diafic | maybe | 17:42 |
| diafic | I dunno | 17:42 |
| diafic | just plug in via ethernet and download the package if needed | 17:42 |
| desertc | greencookie: they don't work? that would be very unusual. have you mapped the ctrl or alt keys? | 17:42 |
| Nutubuntu | thanks again, nickrud - I haven't dpkg-reconfigured yet, just about to do that. When I gdm restart - do I lose this session? | 17:42 |
| bazhang | diafic: please dont use the enter key as punctuation | 17:42 |
| desertc | nickrud: Interesting!!!! | 17:43 |
| juano__ | |unjustice|: did you configured your repositories ? | 17:43 |
| diafic | mhh | 17:43 |
| nickrud | Nutubuntu: absolutely, you should be doing this work from a vc anyway | 17:43 |
| erUSUL | Arelis: i checked the linuxwacom page and it seems far from trivial... you also need to install a Xorg driver... | 17:43 |
| cox | anyone know how i bridge my wifi connection the ethernet card to share the internet connection? | 17:43 |
| einnar | bazhang : alsa-oss didn't make either. http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/44912/ | 17:43 |
| slackern | gravemind, maybe nautilus has some setting for that directory that is broken in some way, not sure where it stores things like customization, maybe you can find something with gconf-editor and searching for that directory | 17:43 |
| greencookie | desertc: yes, in keyboard panel of gnome. how do i unmap/default it? | 17:43 |
| Nutubuntu | okay, thanks - later - not too much later, I hope :) | 17:43 |
| |unjustice| | juano__: how? | 17:43 |
| juano__ | cox: ip forwarding | 17:43 |
| gravemind | slackern: thanks, I'll check | 17:44 |
| Arelis | erUSUL: please explain | 17:44 |
| fab5freddy | rambo3: i tried this option, but it doesn't do a complete install (ie. erase my windows partition be the sole operating system) | 17:44 |
| cox | juano__: sorry mate, do you mind explaining | 17:44 |
| TexJoachim | can anyone of you use cdcat after the upgrade from feisty to gutsy? | 17:44 |

| cake45 | hi | 17:45 |
| desertc | greencookie: Can you try creating a new user and seeing if it happens under that account? | 17:45 |
| bazhang | einnar: I'd suggest following the failure to find card step 4 and see where that takes you--I'm out of ideas apart from I've gleaned from that guide--sorry I can't be of more assistance | 17:45 |
| juano__ | cox: yea, you want to share your connection to another box right ? | 17:45 |
| greencookie | desertc: I hadn't thought about that. Brb. | 17:45 |
| einnar | bazhang : card step 4? | 17:45 |
| erUSUL | Arelis: i think that for someone that has never compiled drivers or installed thingd from source it can be a hard task | 17:46 |

| wolfprint | I tell you this is 200% better then M$ but learning how to walk all over again (old dog new trick thing going on) | 17:54 |
| |unjustice| | juano__: ok...look for win32 codecs? | 17:54 |
| prappl93 | greencookie: I am still trying to get that to work! Lol | 17:54 |

| WorkingOnWise | sandaru1: well, is there any way to get gnome to restore the desktop to the state it was in before , so if it happens again I can just do ctrl-bkspc, log in and be back to where i was? | 17:54 |
| desertc | greencookie: You bet. | 17:54 |
| ceil420 | wolfprint, it's worth it, imo :) | 17:54 |
| greencookie | prappl93: lool. have to turned to google for the truth? | 17:54 |
| juano__ | |unjustice|: also i recommend you install mplayer, its very good player for video | 17:54 |

| wolfprint | everything is worth it | 17:55 |
| golem1 | it works great under wine thx | 17:55 |
| sandaru1 | WorkingOnWise: I'm not sure.. but i don't think so. | 17:55 |
| wolfprint | ArthurArchnix, how you mess up your panels | 17:55 |
| gravemind | golem1: alright! now you just need to get aleph1 working | 17:55 |

| pookey | hi all - does anyone know if there's a reason APC (PHP cache) isn't in ubuntu? xcache is, I find it odd that APC isn't - wanderd if there was a technical/political reason for it | 17:56 |
| desertc | pookey: Sounds like too much an advanced topic for this channel. | 17:56 |
| pookey | desertc: better suggestion? | 17:57 |

| juano__ | |unjustice|: sometimes you need the lib-dev installed, devs installed | 18:02 |
| desertc | einnar: Just ask your question again. Too many people here to keep track of each one. | 18:02 |
| shishio | sandarul: no, i have no serch box like thingy on the menu bar | 18:02 |
| broken | Does the ubuntu cd allow me to format ubuntu ? | 18:02 |
| broken | I need a basic terminal where I can use fdisk. | 18:03 |
| sandaru1 | shishio: k. sometimes that leads into your error message | 18:03 |
| broken | Err, maybe I'll just use my gentoo minimal cd. | 18:03 |
| ArthurArchnix | wolfprint: thanks. Do you have a panel on the left side of your screen, expanded? If not, could you put one there? | 18:03 |
| juano__ | they should begin considering a multi-room ubuntu irc support | 18:03 |

| SAM_theman | How do I find out a type of file in the terminal ? | 18:11 |
| ArthurArchnix | wolfprint: There are at least two panels, but we need to know which one is the one on the left. If you click on Panel_1 and scroll down the main box you will see an expand check box. It is safe to uncheck and check this box, and doing so will confirm that you are looking at the correct panel. | 18:11 |
| soundray | broken: the issue could be the partition type: Windows expects to install on a primary partition. | 18:11 |

| note360 | picard_pwns_kirk: what is it called so i can try it. Its a software issue i tihnk. I cant find what im looking for | 19:16 |
| picard_pwns_kirk | note360: can't grep the name, just go to add/remove programs and search synthesizer, that should be the app you want | 19:16 |
| tom17bombadil_ | desertc: oh. i see. thats not an executable. | 19:17 |
| manduski | soundray: yes i can switch back with alt-f7, but the control-alt-f1, f2 does not work still | 19:17 |
| picard_pwns_kirk | it begins with a z, I remember | 19:17 |
| Bricker | ubotu: I saw that, but it shows kubuntu 7.10 and not ubuntu 7.10 so i was unsure about using those directions | 19:17 |
| Bricker | oh, you're a bot ;P | 19:17 |
| picard_pwns_kirk | Bricker: ubotu is a bot | 19:17 |
| note360 | ok | 19:18 |
| note360 | ill try to figure it out | 19:18 |
| WorkingOnWise | PriceChild: and just because there is source update doesnt mean it will be relevant to my system, and if it is, if i'm not having the problem the patch fixes, i dont need to re-roll... | 19:18 |
| ader10 | I'm trying to use compiz/fusion with an opengl game Enemy Territory. The game tells me that it's drawing at 76 fps but it appears to be 40 or so fps and it's very choppy. | 19:18 |
| ader10 | I believe the cause to this is the fps lock on compiz. (You know how in the benchmark plugin the maximum fps is 50 and there's an option to unlock it while the bench is running). Please tell me if this assumption is wrong. | 19:18 |
| ader10 | Can I somehow keep compiz enabled with its eye candy and useful window manager features and play the game at the same time with an fps running over 40? | 19:18 |
| soundray | manduski: was this working previously on the same machine? | 19:18 |
| Ely | I got it. :) | 19:19 |

| Ely | ok soundray thanks let me see if I find that now lol | 19:21 |
| soundray | manduski: so something in gnome disables it... It could be a fluke -- maybe just try a reboot? | 19:21 |
| nickrud | manda: try sudo invoke-rc.d gdm stop, then startx | 19:21 |
| manduski | soundray: it was using xubuntu and then downloaded the gnome ubuntu...I've rebooted many times | 19:21 |

| manduski | soundray: that is not the case | 19:24 |
| soundray | manduski: I don't know then. | 19:24 |

| Ely | I would have never guessed that soundray ; thanks God for the run command lol | 19:24 |
| manduski | soundray: is there a section on the xorg.conf file that might have something to do with it? | 19:24 |

| tatterdemalian | How do I compile Wine for my 64-bit system now that I can't get the source code any more? | 19:24 |
| soundray | manduski: no. If that was the problem, it wouldn't work in xfce | 19:25 |
| Bricker | maybe, but i didnt expect it to do that so it just messed up a bunch of installations | 19:25 |
| manda | nickrud: no...same display...stuck during boot up | 19:25 |
| Bricker | im getting this error, and don't understand it | 19:25 |

| peacepipejv | i need help with ethernet | 19:27 |
| Ely | sort of like the startup folder in WIndows | 19:28 |

| Traveler6 | hi | 19:56 |
| EtteSB | if something requires Windows media player or real player (its on a site doesn't allow DL). is there any way to watch it? | 19:56 |
| faileas | Dirtbag: depends on the cm? ;p | 19:56 |
| faileas | *VM | 19:56 |
| === Traveler6 is now known as Nigell93 | ||
| bruenig | EtteSB, you can download on any site if you know what you are doing, but install mplayer | 19:56 |
| Nigell93 | is this the officaial LG15 Chat?? | 19:57 |
| Dirtbag | faileas: what one do you use? | 19:57 |
| Krumar | peacepipejv, i used to use a switch card in my computer to share internet connection to over pcs, my card had 4 slots in it, what i'm getting at is unless you have a speical piece of hardware, you will need a cross over cable | 19:57 |
| faileas | Dirtbag: VMware? | 19:57 |
| EtteSB | bruenig: via synaptic? or is it a DL from a site? | 19:57 |
| RichW | peacepipejv: buy a switch | 19:57 |
| Krumar | peacepipejv, the hardware doesn't allow it any other way | 19:57 |
| RichW | switch or hub should do it | 19:58 |
| OldPink | Does fedora use apt-get now? | 19:58 |
| soundray | peacepipejv: when you say it worked with gutsy and XP, which one was where? | 19:58 |
| peacepipejv | Kumar: I have the same network hardware setup tween gutsy to gutsy that i had with gutsy to xp. Gutsy to xp worked, gutsy to gutsy no worky | 19:58 |
| bruenig | EtteSB, via apt-get, don't DL from a site, I know windows migrants have decided to encourage windows software installation techniques, but always try to stay within the package management | 19:58 |
| ItchyHobo | OldPink, fedora is red hat based so the answer is most prob no | 19:58 |
| ifco | hey, whats the best partitioning to have on sda if i want to have a dual boot running (winxp would be the first installed) | 19:58 |
| ItchyHobo | !rpm | 19:58 |
| ubotu | RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous) | 19:58 |
| EtteSB | bruenig: thanks, so just "apt-get install mplayer" then? | 19:59 |
| noob69 | does anyone know if ubuntu fixed the security update for samba | 19:59 |
| bruenig | EtteSB, search | 19:59 |
| ItchyHobo | noob69, yep got it just now | 19:59 |
| needcdrom | help! my cd drive doesn't work anymore! | 19:59 |
| Dirtbag | faileas: when you install a vm, (in my case, I want to have ubuntu as main os, and if i need xp i want to vm xp)does it disapear once ubuntu shuts down? | 19:59 |
| bruenig | EtteSB, apt-cache search mplayer, figure out that way, learn to use the package management | 19:59 |
| OldPink | ItchyHobo: But! fedoraproject.org/wiki/Tools/Apt | 19:59 |
| ItchyHobo | needcdrom, threaten to replace ur cd drive | 19:59 |
| Krumar | peacepipejv, do you have a DHCP server or are your NICs static? | 19:59 |
| OldPink | ItchyHobo: Sorry http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Tools/Apt | 19:59 |
| EtteSB | Bruenig: Thanks | 20:00 |
| RichW | Krumar: He wants to make a bridge I think | 20:00 |
| peacepipejv | soundray: xp was the internet host | 20:00 |
| Krumar | RichiH, ah, didn't catch on to that | 20:00 |
| ItchyHobo | OldPink, i mostly used ubuntu and dont know much about rpm based linux so they might have built something to handle it | 20:00 |
| faileas | Dirtbag: its like a seperate computer. you can even set XP to shutdown and start gracefully with your OS. its persistant though, you won't lose info if you use it as its supposed to be | 20:00 |
| chuckf | peacepipejv: sorry, had to deal with the dog. if you don't have an ip configured on your eth0's, then they won't talk with each other | 20:00 |
| RichW | Krumar: I would also be interested in how its done :) | 20:00 |
| ifco | hey gyus what would you recommend? | 20:00 |
| ifco | hey, whats the best partitioning to have on sda if i want to have a dual boot running (winxp would be the first installed) | 20:00 |
| noob69 | im still having the same problem when running update manager | 20:00 |
| ItchyHobo | OldPink, just know the basic about fedora | 20:00 |
| peacepipejv | I just want to create a normal network connection via ethernet and share the internet | 20:00 |
| soundray | Dirtbag: no. Part of the guest installation is setting up a virtual disk, which stores your XP system and data. | 20:00 |
| OldPink | ItchyHobo: I know it did use yum, but it appears to have changed | 20:01 |
| RichW | peacepipejv: Yes, Like Laptop --> pc --> internet | 20:01 |
| needcdrom | ItchyHobo: I may have to, but is there a reason why ubuntu stopped supporting it? | 20:01 |
| Krumar | RichiH, i think i have that going right now, i set it up with FireStarter, share internet connection | 20:01 |
| OldPink | Is gOS GNOME or KDE based? | 20:01 |
| RichW | Krumar: Ahh, forgot about that program. | 20:01 |
| peacepipejv | Rich: yup, internetis hosted via laptop | 20:01 |
| Krumar | peacepipejv, i think i understand now | 20:01 |
| chuckf | OldPink: KDE is my understanding | 20:01 |
| RichW | peacepipejv: Ok download and install firestarter firewall on the host pc and share it | 20:01 |
| Krumar | peacepipejv, which computer is hooked up the internet directly? | 20:01 |
| ItchyHobo | OldPink, cant help u much on fedora cuz i know very little about it | 20:02 |
| peacepipejv | Krumar: laptop gutsy is the host | 20:02 |
| ItchyHobo | needcdrom, who stopped supporting what | 20:02 |
| Krumar | peacepipejv, ok, your going to need to get firestarter to set up internet sharing | 20:02 |
| peacepipejv | you know, all of a sudden that makes a lot of sense | 20:03 |
| Krumar | peacepipejv, does your laptop have enough NICs for this? | 20:03 |
| peacepipejv | Krumar: it shold, I ean the same hardware config with XP and it was working | 20:03 |
| chuckf | Krumar: he's using a pc wifi card to verizon for internet on the laptop, then ethernet cable between laptop and pc | 20:03 |
| Dirtbag | faileas: Ok, can the vm access the internet? | 20:04 |
| chuckf | Krumar: pc evdo card Ishould have said | 20:04 |
| Krumar | chuckf, peacepipejv, been a while sence i used wireless sorry | 20:04 |
| needcdrom | ItchyHobo: my cdrom drive used to work in gutsy, and now it doesn't anymore (still works in windows and even puppy linux) | 20:04 |
| faileas | Dirtbag: sure | 20:04 |
| RichW | Krumar: Not that much different to wired networking | 20:04 |
| peacepipejv | Krumar, its not wifi, its verizon broadcomm. Its like using a cell phone to connect | 20:04 |
| chuckf | lunch time for me, I'll be back in a bit | 20:04 |
| ItchyHobo | needcdrom, cdrom is supported in gutsy there must be some other prob | 20:05 |
| Dirtbag | faileas: does it do it through the host os or from the xp vm? | 20:05 |
| Krumar | sorry, i just got off thinking of the wrong set up | 20:05 |
| Krumar | yes the networking is the same though | 20:05 |
| peacepipejv | laptop connect to internet via verizon pc card with antenna. and pc is wired to laptop via ethernet cable | 20:05 |
| Krumar | peacepipejv, have you been able to install firestarter yet? | 20:05 |

| toby1 | anyone have suggestions | 20:31 |

| peacepipejv | Krumar: what do you mean static | 20:31 |
| Krumar | peacepipejv, well regardless you must static the laptop, what that means is you specify the ip address | 20:31 |
| peacepipejv | ooh, I might need some help with that | 20:32 |

| the12thdocotor | I'm also having an issue with sound. I plug in speakers but the OS isn't cutting off the internal speaker. Ideas? | 20:40 |
| ArthurArchnix | taz_: I'm not hopeful, but try "sudo apt-get clean && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade" | 20:40 |
| attunix | How do I make my own X Windowing System? | 20:40 |

| the12thdocotor | backup your documents to another HD or a thumbdrive or something | 20:44 |
| blueerasertwin | its worth the time for the clean install | 20:44 |
| toby1 | true but how do i get rid of feisty | 20:44 |
| the12thdocotor | Arthur: That command string worked. It appears to have installed all my updates and the orange star is gone now | 20:44 |

| boran | Burlynn: Try something like "/your/export/dir *(rw,sync)" in /etc/exports | 21:02 |
| Nutubuntu | !java | 21:02 |

| ArthurArchnix | greencookie: I like to use a program called P.I.N.G (ping is not ghost) to create a bootable image of my setup. For a pristine install you should use your install cd. To setup the system to your liking and then create a bootable installation of that use PING. Google will help you find their site. | 21:03 |

| kazol3 | I have a problem with the login screen resolution being too low. | 21:03 |
| helfrez | greencookie: you can check out UBCD (ultimate boot cd) it has most of the free tools built into one bootable cd | 21:04 |
| greencookie | what about all the system settings? do they get saved as well Evan? | 21:04 |
| boran | Burlynn: Have you re-exported using "exportfs -a"? You should also make sure mountd, lockd and statd are running. | 21:04 |
| boran | ... on the server | 21:04 |

| greencookie | helfrez: I wanted to save the entire system. Cuz what happened was that i changed my wireless and video card driver manually and screwed up my system. So I had to reinstall to get default drivers:) | 21:06 |

| boran | Burlynn: You shouldn't have to reboot to get nfs working. Perhaps stopping and starting nfsd from /etc/init.d. | 21:06 |
| Shadix | lol | 21:06 |
| Shadix | thx guys | 21:06 |
| Evanlec | Nutubuntu, is it running linux software-raid, or something u set in bios? | 21:06 |
| Krumar | peacepipej1, that is comcasts DNS server | 21:06 |
| peacepipej1 | and why am I peacepipej1 instead of peacepipejv | 21:06 |
| Shadix | or girls... | 21:07 |
| Nutubuntu | Evanlec, linux software raid (md) | 21:07 |
| Burlynn | boran: well i already have, but i still dont have permission on the client computer | 21:07 |
| minus198 | Shadix, 99% Guys in here I think xD | 21:07 |
| Evanlec | Nutubuntu, that shouldnt be a problem, just use the alternate cd as it understands raid automatically | 21:07 |
| Krumar | peacepipej1, don't know may be you other name did not time out | 21:07 |
| helfrez | greencookie: if your savy, you can zip up your entire root directory, and they use a live cd to restoer it and reinstall a boot loaded | 21:07 |
| Acxty | Hi, I am want to connect to a vpn server, which software can I use on ubuntu | 21:07 |
| Nutubuntu | Evanlec, there's only one word in that statement that worries me: "shouldn't" ... :P | 21:08 |
| greencookie | helfrez: ok. | 21:08 |
| danny | i need a mac os x dock | 21:08 |
| Evanlec | Nutubuntu, well, is it a raid 0 array? | 21:08 |
| helfrez | greencookie: check out the gentoo quick install section, thats basically how its installed, unzip a base system, and install a bootloader | 21:08 |
| Nutubuntu | The upgrade, for example, from Feisty to Gutsy? That shouldn't be a problem too, but unfortunately here I am. At least it's RAID1 | 21:08 |
| boran | Burlynn: Is there an "showmount" command on the client so you can see if there are any exports? | 21:08 |
| SuperDoc | How can i turn off ubuntu's automatic mounting feature? | 21:09 |
| helfrez | greencookie: there will be detailed instructions on installing grub from commandline, just need to be adopted to your install, basics are the same | 21:09 |
| Nutubuntu | Evanlec, RAID1 ... RAID0 makes me horribly nervous | 21:09 |
| Acxty | Hi, I am want to connect to a vpn server, which software can I use on ubuntu | 21:09 |
| DA-freakshow | I dunno :S | 21:09 |
| Kaso | Ok, heres my complicated situation, i have a drive image i made with dd, now i want to restore that image to another drive, except the problem is that drive is in my windows machine, i've tried mounting it with smbfs but i cant seem to get it to recognise my window's pc, even using smbclient -L JRD it doesnt work. Any ideas? | 21:10 |
| helfrez | Nutubuntu: if its software raid it should be fine, i would HIGHLY recommend the text based install though | 21:10 |
| brobostigon | hi | 21:10 |
| Evanlec | Nutubuntu, the alternate cd will see your sfotware raid as one drive, or it will let u configure them as well, but the install should go just as smoothly as a regular install, tho i believe its best to have a seperate /boot partition as ext2 | 21:10 |
| peacepipejv | wow, this internet connection is volatile | 21:10 |
| ompaul | SuperDoc, system preferences removable drives and media | 21:10 |
| SuperDoc | their not removable | 21:10 |
| DA-freakshow | @ Kaso: Tried Using a windows disk and dualbooting | 21:10 |
| peacepipejv | Krumar: i added the comcast dns sever ip | 21:10 |
| SuperDoc | i keep unmounting them, and ubuntu keeps mounting them back. | 21:11 |
| helfrez | Nutubuntu: like Evan said, the alternate cd has a guided raid setup, i dont know what it would do in graphical install mode | 21:11 |
| ompaul | SuperDoc, sudo gedit /etc/fstab | 21:11 |
| Nutubuntu | helfrez, I'm a big believer in the text base install too. Evanlec, I've got /boot separate as ext2 - that's how I set it up | 21:11 |
| Krumar | peacepipejv ok, does it work? | 21:11 |
| ompaul | SuperDoc, actually sorry | 21:11 |
| ompaul | SuperDoc, gksu gedit /etc/fstab | 21:11 |
| Nutubuntu | helfrez, come to think of it, I don't think I've run the GUI install since Warty? or back then | 21:11 |
| jburd | peacepipejv: Try using the OpenDNS name server IPs also: 208.67.222.222, 208.67.220.220 | 21:11 |
| offipso | ubuntu keeps telling me I have mail in /var/spool/mail when I don't. The file is empty, every time! It won't shut up! | 21:11 |
| batis610 | hello everybody | 21:12 |
| Nutubuntu | Maybe never ... did Warty *have* a GUI install? | 21:12 |
| helfrez | Nutubuntu: do a text based install, and there will be a optin to setup raid, it will recognize your raid mdx drives np | 21:12 |
| DA-freakshow | See, i'm my schools Comp savvy, and i just installed ubuntu for my buddy here... | 21:12 |

| ArthurArchnix | arunkale: rm *.* from within the folder | 21:29 |
| * greencookie is in love with consoles. | 21:29 | |
| Nutubuntu | arunkale, cd /the/path/to/the/folder then just to make sure you are where you think, ls (which will show you the files), then if you're sure you want them gone, "rm ." | 21:29 |
| danny | B3N87: ok restarted | 21:29 |
| sidlet | greencookie, I'd give alot just to get into console at this point :P | 21:29 |
| helfrez | DA-freakshow: can you be more specific on your needs, ive used just about all the firewalls in the repo lol | 21:29 |

| greencookie | sidlet: Don't you have ttys? :O | 21:30 |
| sidlet | greencookie, cant alt-fx to a tty | 21:30 |
| ackdesha | arunkale: rm -rf folder/* or ( cd folder && rm -rf *) | 21:30 |
| Arafangion | DA-freakshow: They would be easier than using the api, for sure. | 21:30 |
| sidlet | Theres no f-lock key on this laptop either.. so i'm confused | 21:30 |
| danny | B3N87: said desktop effects could not be enabled | 21:30 |
| DarkSpirit221 | Hi, is there any video editor like Windows Movie Maker? I really need one that supports making a movie from images. | 21:30 |
| arunkale | thanks guys | 21:30 |
| B3N87 | danny: hmm so you have the ATI driver installed through the restricted drivers? | 21:31 |
| DA-freakshow | DarkSpirit221: Kino should work... :/ | 21:31 |
| greencookie | sidlet: :O I had same problem. I JUST reinstalled ubuntu just to fix that: | 21:31 |
| danny | yes | 21:31 |
| sidlet | greencookie, I was positive that I could hit a tty from the live cd and then work on whatever graphical issue i'm having. | 21:31 |
| B3N87 | danny: and XGL is installed? | 21:31 |
| Nutubuntu | arunkale, if you're used to windows and being able to undelete, when you use rm, gone is really gone,so be sure | 21:31 |
| danny | yes | 21:31 |
| jdlizard | ndiswrapper crashes my system in gusty but not feisty any help? | 21:31 |

| greencookie | sidlet: Can't you? I think I did just that a while back. | 21:31 |
| DarkSpirit221 | DA-freakshow: Thanks for answering, downloading. ;) | 21:31 |
| danny | B3N87: Yes | 21:32 |
| sidlet | but then again i've never installed ubuntu on a laptop either | 21:32 |
| greencookie | sidlet: it should work. I had same issue. then I used tty and sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 21:32 |
| sidlet | hey passing VGA options at boot worked | 21:32 |
| Arafangion | DA-freakshow: api == "Application Programming Interface". | 21:32 |

| Krumar | peacepipej1, so it's working now? | 21:36 |
| B3N87 | danny: im a bit stuck, on the forum it says you need the ATI driver installed and XGL running | 21:36 |
| Nutubuntu | Xenocide21, I moved to linux so I could use some stuff I couldn't manage to get in Windows, and out of curiosity too | 21:36 |
| Krumar | peacepipej2, oh, have you done the ping yet from the client? | 21:36 |

| slokmlok | Hi | 21:41 |
| woodwizzle | i have an esata external hdd that isn't detected in ubuntu :( | 21:41 |
| helfrez | greencookie: ubuntu is good for base setups though, so you probably just need the frontend, install like nmpc | 21:41 |
| tyronepolleri | ArthurArchnix: what does modprobe uvcvideo do? | 21:41 |
| woodwizzle | any ideas on how to find it? | 21:41 |
| peacepipej2 | Krumar: looks like internet sharingprob? | 21:41 |
| Krumar | ok, that means that your client is connected correctly to the host, but not getting an outside connection | 21:41 |
| helfrez | greencookie: mpd is a backend service, you need to pick a frontned client, they are all listed on the website | 21:41 |
| DarkSpirit221 | DA-freakshow: Do you know how to install it? | 21:41 |
| ArthurArchnix | tyronepolleri: Once you have correctly built a "module" (aka driver) that loads it so that it is available to be used by your system. | 21:41 |
| Krumar | peacepipej2, yes, it looks like an internet connection sharing problem | 21:41 |
| Fattay | Okay, I lied. I need help please... | 21:41 |
| peacepipej2 | Krumar: host saw the ping | 21:41 |
| Krumar | peacepipej2, you did enable internet connection sharing in firestarter? | 21:42 |
| peacepipej2 | but thats as far as it went | 21:42 |

| peacepipej2 | Keumar, yes but let me double check | 21:42 |
| ArthurArchnix | tyronepolleri: So that command is telling your kernel to load that module so that it knows how to run the associated hardware. | 21:42 |
| DA-freakshow | DarkSpirit221: kino? | 21:42 |
| Krumar | peacepipej2, if you type Kru then press tab it will spell out my name for you | 21:43 |

| DarkSpirit221 | DA-freakshow: yes | 21:43 |
| tyronepolleri | ArthurArchnix:how can i test it? | 21:43 |
| ArthurArchnix | tyronepolleri: I don't see a driver available for download on that page. Where did you find it? | 21:43 |

| HunterKiller | I have a problem with ubuntu on my laptop. My laptop has an "Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 950" graphics card and Linux finds it automatically and picks a driver for it. All sorts of cool effects work, except for certain glitches, like horizontal line artifacts in specific places on my screen. They go away if move a window over them or drag a selection box over them but they come back in a while. | 21:53 |
| HunterKiller | If I can't fix this problem it'll be a deal breaker and I'll have to go back to Windows and I don't want to do that. | 21:53 |
| Ragewarp | anyone here famialiar with installing games on steam | 21:53 |
| blueerasertwin | atlef: i have hdmi out | 21:53 |

| spinchange | shouldn't it create the dir for me? | 22:44 |
| hunkyspunky | i just installed ubuntu on my laptop the first time (7.10) | 22:44 |
| Scunizi | Loki2010, good choice.. nice thing is if you load Ubuntu with gnome then you just go to the terminal and type "sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop" for kde and xubuntu-desktop for xfce. Then just change sessions when booting at the uname password prompt. | 22:44 |
| wraund | hunkyspunky: congrats :D | 22:45 |
| hunkyspunky | and i see when i boot it up.....the screen stays black for like a minute shwoing disk acitvity | 22:45 |
| Loki2010 | dgjones, I know it works 100% under linux openprinting.org says it does just couldn't make gentoo or suse see it lol | 22:45 |
| hunkyspunky | it doesnt show any boot screen or anyhting | 22:45 |

| semperfiguy | so right now I am using the nm-applet to configure my network, what is the ifup way? | 22:46 |
| hunkyspunky | i'm guessing it has soemthing to do with my video card in my laptop........but i'm new to ubuntu so any ideas would be great | 22:46 |
| Scunizi | Loki2010, no problem.. we're all volunteers here.. like to share.. burn the cd as slow as you can. | 22:47 |

| Scunizi | Loki2010, there is a dvd that you can order.. I don't know if you can download it.. the dvd contains all the current distrabutions for ubuntu.. It's easier to download Ubuntu then add the different ones post-facto. | 22:48 |

| void^ | Minifig: what about it? | 22:49 |

| Super-Sonic-Sega | how do i changet he sound it makes when I log in | 22:49 |
| Minifig | Will ubuntu run without having to manually install the drivers? | 22:49 |
| void^ | Minifig: yes | 22:49 |
| curiOOso | Minifig:I | 22:49 |
| Scunizi | Sound was working now it's not after the latest updates. System beep is driving me nuts. Anyone else having this problem. Desktop system w/gutsy Intel card ICH5 ac'97 compatable.. | 22:50 |
| Minifig | Last time I tried, I had more problems than I wanted. | 22:50 |
| spr0k3t | robboplus_: support for nvidia is good... just install the nvidia-glx package | 22:50 |
| robboplus_ | spr0k3t many thanks - sounds cool | 22:50 |
| Super-Sonic-Sega | how do i change the sound it makes when I log in? | 22:50 |
| Minifig | I refuse to go into text mode to install the drivers. | 22:50 |
| spr0k3t | robboplus_: also, you'll need to enable the restricted drivers manager settings for that package | 22:50 |
| Minifig | Whenever I tried it it meddes up Linux and I had to format and re-install Linux | 22:50 |
| robboplus_ | spr0k3t i read you | 22:51 |
| spinchange | does anyone know if there are other channels dedicated to ubuntu drivers support/print help? | 22:51 |
| void^ | Minifig: and why would you go into text mode? .. | 22:51 |
| curiOOso | Use Envy | 22:51 |
| arunkale | can i find a guide somewhere about uploading/downloading files using ssh | 22:51 |
| mint | hello everyone! can i ask questions in russian here? my english is poor:( | 22:51 |
| * spr0k3t is not a fan of Envy | 22:51 | |
| Shadix | not I | 22:51 |
| Minifig | Because thats what the site said to do to install the Linux nvidia drivers. | 22:51 |
| blueerasertwin | hunkyspunky: i think there is a russian channel | 22:51 |
| Scunizi | !russian | mint | 22:51 |
| Pici | !envy | 22:51 |
| ubotu | mint: Пожалуйста войдите в #ubuntu-ru для помощи на русском языке / Pozhalujsta vojdite v #ubuntu-ru dlq pomoshchi na russkom qzyke | 22:51 |
| ubotu | envy is not needed or supported. Use the Resticted Manager to install binary drivers and see « /msg ubotu binarydriver » | 22:51 |
| Shadix | is there a good "Beginner" wiki out there? | 22:51 |
| void^ | Minifig: there's absolutely no reason to manually install nvidia's drivers. | 22:51 |
| spr0k3t | Envy will work in a pinch... but use the package manager so you don't have to redo envy every time there's a minor kernel update. | 22:51 |
| spr0k3t | void^: you said it | 22:52 |
| choudesh | cockney: simple answer yes - long answer no. they are needed by most applications you compile. the only things in there are the kernel headers and any apt-get sources you downloaded | 22:52 |
| Minifig | I have ubuntu 7.10 I might install it if I don't have to manually install drivers in text mode. | 22:52 |
| robboplus_ | mindframe_: just install the nvidia-glx package | 22:52 |
| robboplus_ | err Minifig* | 22:52 |
| robboplus_ | as spr0k3t just said above | 22:52 |
| blueerasertwin | minifig: are you running the live cd? | 22:52 |
| spr0k3t | Minifig: it should work with the nvidia-glx package | 22:52 |
| Minifig | OKay. I am running Mandriva right now. | 22:52 |
| void^ | nvidia-glx-new actually | 22:52 |
| Minifig | I installed Mandriva. | 22:52 |
| hunkyspunky | well folks i gotta go get the wifi working..i'll bbl | 22:52 |
| Scunizi | Minifig, run the live cd and see if everything works. then install :) | 22:52 |
| void^ | i suggest you don't use compiz on a fx5200 though. | 22:52 |
| spr0k3t | nvidia-glx-new is for 6000+ isn't it? | 22:52 |
| curiOOso | So make a download from nvidia site and install. exit X and install | 22:53 |
| cockney | ok so best not to meddle in there, i just have 700mb sitting n there at the moment | 22:53 |
| robboplus_ | folks, i just told him to trash mandriva... let's make the guy positive about fx5200 in ubuntu :) | 22:53 |

| Super-Sonic-Sega | why is there so many updates every day | 22:54 |
| robboplus_ | Minifig you just open a window, it will be similar as DOS-box on winbloze | 22:54 |
| Scunizi | Super-Sonic-Sega, bugs, fixes etc.. | 22:54 |
| spr0k3t | Super-Sonic-Sega: because you have the updates set to check daily? | 22:54 |

| beewee | Hi! Is here a Kubuntu / Xubuntu user who can tell me whether the browsers send "Kubuntu" / "Xubuntu" or just "Ubuntu" as the HTTP_USER_AGENT? | 22:58 |
| sabo | semperfiguy: that is a little more tricky what ubuntu version are u running | 22:58 |
| kane77 | blueerasertwin, at least not on this computer... | 22:58 |
| semperfiguy | 7.10 gutsy | 22:58 |
| cosmodad | where do I set the default PDF viewer in Ubuntu (Gutsy)? | 22:59 |
| blueerasertwin | kane77: are you running fiesty? | 22:59 |
| sabo | semperfiguy: there are several wifi applets for the gui that will configure your wifi if you are having trouble with one try another | 22:59 |
| kane77 | blueerasertwin, yes.. (on the computer I want to upgrade).. plus 2x gutsy :) | 22:59 |
| semperfiguy | sabo: right now I am just entering in the passphrase into the nm-applet for WPA, which doesn't work. Do I need to generate a passkey and put that in instead? | 23:00 |
| kane77 | maximilian1st, you could take look at bashish... it's theming utility for bash... | 23:00 |
| blueerasertwin | kane77:nice, you should be able to upgrade from fiesty where you noramlly get your update notifications, there will be an extra window in there, you have to aloow fiesty to move to gusty | 23:01 |
| maximilian1st | kane77, Thx, I will google for it :-) | 23:01 |
| kane77 | maximilian1st, I found debian packages somewhere.. but I'm not quite sure where.. | 23:01 |
| minus198 | Why can't I choose which locales I want when I do: "sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales" In debian I can choose exactly which ones I want... | 23:01 |
| allbert | sweechay | 23:01 |
| sabo | semperfiguy: no need to generate a key just the passphrase will work usually; | 23:01 |
| minus198 | And a weird thing is that "locale" looks like this: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/2055/ | 23:01 |

| Reng | is FreeBSD linux? | 23:02 |
| NDPMacBook | N | 23:02 |
| NDPMacBook | No | 23:02 |
| maximilian1st | kane77, http://bashish.sourceforge.net/screenshot.html the C64 one is definitely cool, good ol' days :-) | 23:03 |
| NDPMacBook | FreeBSD is BSD | 23:03 |
| kane77 | blueerasertwin, the problem is the upgrade somewhat doesn't work.. by default when I run the update manager it doesn't show the upgrade message (the way it did on my other computer..) | 23:03 |
| donp | Reng: freebsd uses the BSD kernel, which is different than the linux kernel. | 23:03 |
| dana_bad | i used to have sound, and it all of a sudden stopped working | 23:03 |
| donp | whats the package name for the gnome desktop? 'gnome' didnt work? | 23:03 |
| sabo | semperfiguy: here is another https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WPAHowTo | 23:03 |
| blueerasertwin | kane77:hmm, you can force it, but i dont knwo if that is reccomended | 23:03 |
| anzan | Free BSD, OPen BSD and Linux are all Unix variants. | 23:03 |
| Reng | oic | 23:04 |
| kane77 | blueerasertwin, I tried, but I didn't get far... | 23:04 |
| blueerasertwin | kane77: there is definitly a wiki on it though, i would look there for the commands if you want to force the upgrade | 23:04 |
| kane77 | blueerasertwin, maybe I will reinstall anyway... | 23:04 |

| ceil420 | how do i make top sort by %MEM? | 23:05 |

| donp | spinchange: thank you! | 23:08 |
| JuniorAspirin | Scunizi: you need to fiddle with the volume contol settings | 23:08 |
| donp | "Need to get 466MB/466MB of archives." That seems right :) | 23:08 |

| Scunizi | blueerasertwin, just in the quick scan that I did on the MB, it looks like the hdmi connector is there for convienence and really only carries the dvi portion of the signal without audio. I haven't confirmed that, but it's my first impression. | 23:20 |

| jussi01 | dgimse: go to synaptic and search and install it | 23:21 |

| blueerasertwin | Midtronic: what would be a sample mount point? for sudo mount -o loop /path/to/image.iso /where/to/mount | 23:22 |

| dgimse | because it gives me an error "can't find package subversion" | 23:23 |
| Scunizi | blueerasertwin, first impressions can often be wrong.. sorry. I'm not sure why it won't pass the sound unless it's because the kernel doesn't know what to do with that part of the motherboard. Maybe there's a way to pipe the sound to it. Unfortunatly I'm not well enough versed in how to diagnose and cure this one. Sorry. | 23:23 |
| cyberpass2 | ;<sacamano>check ur xorg config | 23:24 |

| danny | hamm_ sand: it comes with ubuntu 7.10 | 23:24 |

| jussi01 | dgimse: please go to synaptic, -> manage repositories | 23:24 |
| jussi01 | and make sure all the boxes are clicked | 23:25 |
