| vasyl | hello, could someone direct me plz to a howto that will instruct me how to connect to a WPA+certificate authenticated hotspot with ubuntu plz | 00:01 |
| ikonia | Agent_bob: the openvt but I'm not sure about, but your right the -l should work | 00:01 |
| Agent_bob | Robotchicken1886 cinnerlla or somethin apt-cache search vidio maybe | 00:01 |

| Ahmuck | hi. trying to get a iomega magic 80G Go Drive (usb) to recognize. any suggestions? where do i find usb device numbers? is this something i should mount manually via mount command? | 00:02 |
| jc | That's a good question iGeek asked, and not sure if there's a good answer from Debian / Ubuntu... Question: How to get a list of files a package installed (like rpm -ql)? | 00:02 |
| AdeptSix | Has anyone here had problems with their ATI videocards? I am on a compaq laptop with an ATI radeon xpress 200m ... I have so far only been able to get it to run 2d ... any attempts at fixing this have left me crippled, and I'm not proficient enough to fix the problems myself. | 00:02 |
| crdlb | jc: dpkg -L package | 00:02 |
| jc | I was thinking apt-cache show pkgname would do the trick, but I guess not always? | 00:03 |
| tonyyarusso | jc: dpkg -L | 00:03 |
| jc | crdlb: Ok, good, thank you. | 00:03 |
| jc | and u too tonyyarusso | 00:03 |
| Agent_bob | jc dpkg -L package-name less /var/lib/dpkg/info/package-name.list | 00:03 |
| jc | I wish iGeek would have stayed long enough to see this.. Very good, tnx Agent_bob | 00:03 |
| tonyyarusso | AdeptSix: I have the 300, and you're right, the drivers are awful. Call ATI and complain loudly. | 00:03 |
| AdeptSix | Is there no hope? | 00:04 |
| carbon_unit | any K3b gurus inhere? | 00:04 |
| AdeptSix | Aside from nVidia? | 00:04 |
| Agent_bob | jc however some configs for a package will not be listed as they are constructed from the pre/postinst scripts | 00:04 |
| Milux | hi, i see this error when add an pocast: "Podcast returned invalid data". This happen only for 2 feeds. I tried the feed on the same amarok version on virtula machine and work fine. It's a bug? | 00:04 |
| tonyyarusso | AdeptSix: Waiting, most likely. I can actually get mine to do 3D, but it is prone to random lockups when I do so, which isn't really better. | 00:04 |
| crdlb | AdeptSix: they're (slowly) opening the specs for their cards, so there will be a good open source driver eventually | 00:04 |
| AdeptSix | Well I have destroyed Ubuntu beyond my personal ability to repair it twice now. | 00:05 |
| CochiseIRL | tonyyarusso, ati x300? | 00:05 |
| tonyyarusso | CochiseIRL: yes | 00:05 |
| AdeptSix | I have opted to start fresh. | 00:05 |
| syngin001 | good idea | 00:05 |
| CochiseIRL | tonyyarusso, have you install the ati driver from their website? | 00:06 |
| Agent_bob | jc if i recall correctly you can also get the list of files that a package contains from the synaptic or adapt package managers although i don't use either of them so can't tell you how. | 00:07 |
| duli | which one is a good FTP service? | 00:08 |

| jc | Agent_bob: Yes, iGeek was looking for CLI solution. | 00:09 |
| CochiseIRL | tonyyarusso, could you pastebin your xorg.conf for me, i have it working and have a guide on my blog for but im always interested to see other xorg.conf's with the same hardware etc, if you would'nt mind | 00:09 |
| mneptok | duli: don't use FTP unless you need to allow anonymous users | 00:09 |
| Agent_bob | jc k. posted two. and you noted them. so i'll move on :) | 00:09 |
| duli | mneptok: yes, that's exactly what I need (anonymous) | 00:10 |
| tonyyarusso | CochiseIRL: My current one doesn't have anything interesting (see previous notes about lockups), so it won't be helpful. | 00:10 |

| _Narada | gaurav_: My question said more than two monitors. | 00:15 |
| gaurav_ | _Narada: nvidia restricted drivers | 00:15 |
| Agent_bob | _Narada sure it would, if you had one computer running each monitor... but i was just trying to lighten the mood a bit. i have personally never tried more than two heads on a box, so i can't really help you. | 00:15 |
| MatthewHenley | I have just installed ubuntu along side with vista, I now have two harddrive partitions on my desktop that are for the windows side, does anybody know how i can hide these ? | 00:16 |

| jrib | lastelement0: are you using effects? | 00:17 |
| lastelement0 | jrib, yes i am. im currently using the cube | 00:18 |

| aldren | Agent_bob, yes | 00:18 |

| aldren | Agent_bob, it is not possible :D | 00:25 |
| oobe | bernier, hey i can use tab to auto complete | 00:25 |

| stefano | maybe that'll help | 00:26 |
| aldren | Agent_bob, maybe if you delete the partition hda9 and create again. but you will lost the data | 00:26 |

| Agent_bob | aldren possably, or if i manually edit the partition table maybe... | 00:27 |
| jrib | charlie: I would recommend the new user approach as that is reversible :) (or instead of deleting the .hidden stuff, just move it somewhere like ~/backup | 00:27 |

| RobHu | Hi, I pressed something and now EVERYTHING IS ZOOMED IN :-O How do I dezoom? | 00:28 |
| CochiseIRL | jpeterman, use a portscanner and find which ports are open | 00:28 |
| Agent_bob | aldren you gave me a thought. i have an old "bootitNG" floppy here some place that might just do it... | 00:28 |
| aldren | Agent_bob, i don't know if it works, i don't think so | 00:28 |

| oobe | t | 00:29 |
| stefano | RobHu, Ctrl+Alt+MINUS | 00:29 |

| RobHu | Everything is zoomed about 5x | 00:32 |
| CochiseIRL | jpeterman, yup you need to run as root | 00:32 |
| RobHu | I have to scroll around to see the windows I have open! | 00:32 |
| jrib | cescalante: no need to be sorry. You should just need dvdcss (see ubotu) | 00:32 |
| syngin001 | edit xorg.conf | 00:33 |
| jrib | !dvd > cescalante (read the private message from ubotu) | 00:33 |
| jrib | !medibuntu > cescalante (read the private message from ubotu) | 00:33 |
| RobHu | I was typing and accidentally hit windows or super and then it zoomed in | 00:33 |
| kriel | RobHu: do you know how to check resolution? perhaps it got reset somehow. | 00:33 |
| stefano | RobHu, is it compiz or x? just try to restart your xserver with ctrl+alt+backspace | 00:33 |
| RobHu | It's not the resolution, it's some compiz thing - it zoomed in in a fancy way as it fscked my system over | 00:33 |
| RobHu | stefano: If possible I'd like to do it with out restarting X, I have things running | 00:33 |
| stefano | RobHu, disable compiz temporarily | 00:34 |
| jpeterman | CochiseIRL, what options should I enable? | 00:34 |
| stefano | in system-something-appearance | 00:34 |
| CochiseIRL | RobHu, checked compiz there its super + button5 to zoom out | 00:34 |
| RobHu | What is button 5? | 00:34 |
| RobHu | ah | 00:34 |
| stefano | he said he doesnt have a mouse CochiseIRL | 00:34 |
| RobHu | super + right mouse click | 00:34 |

| RobHu | The average user would have no idea what compiz was or anything. It shouldn't be installed by default, or at least should bring up a dialog the first time it happens. | 00:35 |

| javaJake | tdoggette, i mean, you can install them, but suffice it to say I haven't heard anything good. | 00:39 |
| javaJake | tdoggette, did you check your Xorg logs for the reason why? | 00:39 |
| CochiseIRL | jpeterman, you need to scan the router | 00:39 |

| jpeterman | CochiseIRL, how do I do that? I'm in a dorm | 00:40 |

| javaJake | tdoggette, yea, I just read ubotu's instructions, they look good | 00:42 |

| IanLiu | Executes something on removable drivers, such as CDs | 00:42 |
| tdoggette | javaJake, Restricted Drivers Manager insists that I don't need it | 00:42 |
| buttercups | rayray, envy wont change how the driver works....its a known problem with the new drivers | 00:42 |
| stefano | IanLiu, look at system>settings>session (or similar) | 00:42 |
| tdoggette | this is a beta package from nvidia | 00:42 |
| javaJake | IanLiu, if you mean startup programs when you login, see Administration -> Settings -> Session | 00:42 |
| CochiseIRL | jpeterman, try port 1720 | 00:42 |
| IanLiu | no no | 00:43 |

| Pelo | maddog39, you mean for uploading your screenshots ? | 00:54 |
| tdoggette | It is in no repository. | 00:54 |
| jrib | tdoggette: you do not want to install the nvidia drivers? Use the repositories unless you have a good reason not to (and even then, the manual instructions are on the wiki) | 00:54 |
| Aok | I did try the alternate install disk, that's what got me to the login screen but that had the same problem as the desktop. | 00:54 |

| Aok | <.< | 00:55 |
| javaJake | Aok, the LiveCD shows you pretty much what's goign to happen | 00:55 |
| javaJake | Aok, using the Alternate disk only pushes the problem off until later | 00:56 |
| javaJake | So unless you know why you are using the Alternate Disk, don't. :) | 00:56 |
| Aok | I was hoping that it just didn't load something when it did it from the live disk. | 00:56 |

| Jack_Sparrow | javaJake: it is the best way to fix it | 01:01 |
| Pelo | codenamekt, from the grub menu , atboot, if you don'T see the grub menu at boot, hit the esc key right after the bios screen when you boot | 01:01 |
| javaJake | Jack_Sparrow, *sigh* | 01:02 |
| javaJake | :P | 01:02 |
| burzum | maddog39, ok, but i dont think this will change anything | 01:02 |
| maddog39 | burzum, yes it will, because it will remove the conflict between the 2 versions | 01:03 |
| Pelo | dagdg, if you have your /home partiton on a seperate partiton you can just clean install the os and all you settings will be saved, you'll hve to reinstall any non default apps however | 01:03 |
| maddog39 | purge does a complete remove of a package | 01:03 |

| MasterShrek | CyberMad, do you want them to not be able to run any windows apps or just certain ones? | 01:13 |

| djfred | i type in aircrack-ng in terminal and it works | 01:14 |
| Pelo | CyberMad, permission for wine won't change depending on the distor, winehq is not as active channel as this one, you have to be patient and ask frequently | 01:14 |

| adepthelp | When i installed ubuntu (and downloaded kubuntu), tehre was vim 6.4 installed. because that is an old version i installed 7.0 from source and removed 6.4 manually or with apt-get (i cannot recall) | 01:24 |
| adepthelp | adept notifier thinks i still have vim 6.4 installed and telsl me that i have to upgrade to 7.0 | 01:25 |
| Pelo | john__, do a search for the exact error msg in the forum , there is probably a detailed fix, alternatively , consider running xubuntu if it is an older machine , www.ubuntuforums.org | 01:25 |
| adepthelp | i just want to remove vim from the software-to-be-updated list | 01:25 |
| adepthelp | but i cannot find such option. | 01:25 |
| lockd | adepthelp: then you probably tried removing it manually | 01:25 |
| choudesh | adepthelp: please try apt-get purge vim | 01:25 |
| jrib | adepthelp: why not just install the repository version? | 01:25 |
| MasterShrek | adepthelp, thats not an adept-specific question, its actually for apt-get | 01:25 |
| john__ | Pelo it isn't that old and the problem is really relating to xorg, it seems, not so much the display manager. I shouldn't have said gnome was working fine, since technically it isn't working at all. | 01:26 |
| Pelo | adepthelp, ask in #kubuntu they will be able to sort you out | 01:26 |
| adepthelp | i asked they are all idle Pelo | 01:26 |
| alyxander | anyone know a good network manager for e17 | 01:26 |

| eddy | i installed the Cube program for gnome, but which button makes the cube spin? | 01:26 |
| MasterShrek | alyxander, ifconfig | 01:26 |
| adepthelp | Alright, how can i remove vim from the software update list? for whatever software, may that be apt-get or adept.. thanks | 01:26 |
| MasterShrek | =P | 01:26 |
| john__ | Or at least, I don't know it's working since xorg won't launch. But I'll check the forums, thanks | 01:26 |
| alyxander | wicd doesnt like wpa and eltark or what ever doens like to install | 01:26 |
| Pelo | adepthelp, it's just that most here use gnome and are not familiar with adpet | 01:26 |

| choudesh | adepthelp: VIM is @ version 7.1 in the repos | 01:27 |
| lockd | adepthelp: you can sudo apt-get purge vim, and then install by sudo aptitude install vim | 01:27 |
| alyxander | mastershrek ill be more specific a graphical newwork manager lol | 01:27 |
| adepthelp | lockd: wouldn't this remove my configuration files, .vimrc etc? | 01:27 |
| eddy | which button makes the cube/desktop spin? | 01:27 |

| adepthelp | and isn't there a way to just remove vim from the update list? | 01:27 |
| choudesh | WuGutsyClan: just ask. ;-) | 01:27 |
| Pelo | lockd, it can probably be done in apt-get but he talked about the kde frontend for apt and I don'T knwo abot that one, and I'm not familiar enough with apt to tell him how to do it command line | 01:27 |
| sFEARs | eddy, ctrl+alt+arrow | 01:27 |
| eddy | ok | 01:27 |
| jrib | adepthelp: why would you want to, let apt take care of fetching updates | 01:28 |
| MasterShrek | adepthelp, there is a way, let me find it for you... | 01:28 |

| john__ | Pelo: I searched the forum and no dice. I know what the problem is, what I really need to know is how to fix it. It seems xorg.conf is a bit messed up, but I can't remember for the life of me how to edit it from the shell. | 01:28 |
| WuGutsyClan | Anyone help | 01:28 |
| WuGutsyClan | please | 01:28 |

| ubotu | Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 01:29 |
| choudesh | WuGutsyClan: it maybe possible that they were just moved to your trash file. open terminal an cd ~/.Trash and look in there | 01:29 |
| sFEARs | eddy, in the compiz settings manager it lists the commands of all the effects | 01:29 |
| Pelo | john__, I thinks thatyou get a question about that when you run sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg , but I am not 100% sure, it's been a while | 01:29 |
| WuGutsyClan | EMPTY | 01:29 |
| WuGutsyClan | NOOO | 01:29 |
| eddy | ok | 01:30 |
| Pelo | john__, you can probably edit the fonts paths manualy in xorg.conf as well | 01:30 |
| WuGutsyClan | i need these files | 01:30 |

| lockd | WuGutsyClan: might want to look into foremost. unmount that disk | 01:30 |
| adepthelp | WuGutsyClan: i think this has happened to most of the unix poeple at least once :P | 01:30 |
| D-Elite | kind of funny how i have to use terminal with cdrecord to burn a bin/cue | 01:30 |
| john__ | Pelo, thanks SO MUCH that was another command I couldn't remember. I actually had this same error when I originally installed ubuntu and just forgot how to fix it | 01:30 |
| D-Elite | when i have a iso, its nice to use the built in cd app | 01:30 |
| choudesh | adepthelp: nah...never. ;-) | 01:30 |
| localgod11 | can anyone venture a guess at why my comp has been running slow since gutsy | 01:30 |
| adepthelp | UBUNTUISLOVED: almost all the IRC clients provide that.. | 01:30 |

| D-Elite | CD/DVD Creator | 01:30 |
| adepthelp | choudesh: i take it you're never drunk & root then =) | 01:30 |

| lockd | choudesh: i've done that to all my java sources.. luckily i had the classes backed up and just uncompressed them | 01:31 |
| WuGutsyClan | yes | 01:31 |
| WuGutsyClan | unmounted | 01:31 |
| UBUNTUISLOVED | is there anything i can setup to do so for my server to do it NO gui | 01:31 |
| MasterShrek | adepthelp, hmm, not finding anything, i cant exaclty remember how it was done, and im ont on ubuntu righ tnow so i cant even look it up, but whats stopping you from just upgrading it? | 01:31 |
| WuGutsyClan | srry Jack_Sparrow wont happen again | 01:31 |
| WuGutsyClan | is there any hope | 01:32 |
| Jack_Sparrow | WuGutsyClan: what format was the drive you deleted files from? | 01:32 |
| WuGutsyClan | the regular default Ubuntu Server format | 01:32 |
| choudesh | lockd, adepthelp: though we are offtopic ^-^, an easy way is just to change the rm command just to mv the files instead of doing anything with them. | 01:32 |
| lockd | MasterShrek: adepthelp: Upgrading/removing/installing should not affect any of your user files like ~/.vimrc | 01:32 |
| adepthelp | MasterShrek: well i could upgrade.. backup my conf files first but why would i need to do that.. | 01:32 |
| localgod11 | ok my system has been running really slow since i upgraded to gutsy and web pages display much slower any idea? | 01:32 |
| lockd | choudesh: ahh, thanks for that idea | 01:32 |
| mike__ | Can I set /tmp to not clear on reboot? | 01:32 |
| choudesh | localgod11: please pastebin `top` | 01:32 |
| lockd | choudesh: alias, or actually change the command? | 01:33 |
| localgod11 | choudesh: wha? | 01:33 |
| choudesh | lockd: I just change the command....since most applications don't call down to the kernel, but all down to rm to remove a file | 01:33 |
| MasterShrek | adepthelp, becuase you didnt use checkinstall when you compiled it | 01:33 |
| Jack_Sparrow | WuGutsyClan: were you running as root when you deleted them or regular user | 01:33 |
| MasterShrek | !checkinstall | adepthelp | 01:33 |
| ubotu | adepthelp: checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages.

| sFEARs | i lose all my window borders when i turn on advanced appearance settings.. any ideas? | 01:34 |
| adepthelp | but i dont want to remove my current version | 01:34 |
| MasterShrek | adepthelp, assuming the version you got from source is >= the version in the repos but youll need to totally recompile it: ./configure && make && checkinstall | 01:34 |
| choudesh | lockd: on my linux dev machine, I changed the delete_file routine in the kernel to just move the file to a specific location...but that is a bit harder | 01:34 |
| mneptok | sFEARs: Metacity does not work with Compiz | 01:34 |
| adepthelp | MasterShrek: cool, thanks | 01:34 |

| triox | dagdg: i dont think you can install from windows i think you need to reboot | 01:47 |
| MasterShrek | adepthelp, it can be, but dependencies can be a pain in the arse, i run slamd64, so i compile often | 01:47 |
| bintrue|work | adepthelp: Systemwide is worse than root :) | 01:47 |
| choudesh | BuckWild: try hitting ctrl+alt+f1 , login as root and type `dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg` | 01:47 |
| dagdg | yeah, I do, especially with the amd64 alternate disk | 01:47 |
| adepthelp | heh | 01:47 |
| musashi | just curious what others do. i have an asus mobo with the q-fan stuff (speeds the fan up and down based on temp) but it's kind of annoying since it cycles up and down a lot. since running it full speed all the time isn't that loud is that a good way to go or am i going to burn out the fan for something? | 01:48 |
| zeeeeee | how does apt know which dependencies to 'garbage collect' (when uninstalling an app)? does apt maintain a list of the packages that i've explicitly installed, so that it doesn't garbage-collect those? if so, how can i see this list? | 01:48 |
| zeeeeee | (i think it could be useful to just have the list of packages that i've explicitly installed) | 01:48 |
| adepthelp | MasterShrek: okay, then can i select which packages i want from adept, and install them with apt-get or something? i'll just let it complain about vim but i'll install all the others i want | 01:48 |
| danbhfive | zeeeee: yeah, I think it maintains a list | 01:48 |
| genii | musashi: Well it will definitely shorten your fan life | 01:49 |
| zeeeeee | danbhfive, how do i see this list? | 01:49 |
| zeeeeee | if you know | 01:49 |
| danbhfive | seeeeee: that, i dont know | 01:49 |
| MasterShrek | adepthelp, yea u can use apt-get, adept is just a frontend to apt-get | 01:49 |
| chaosrl | Does anyone know how to get VLC controls for embedded videos in Firefox 2? | 01:49 |
| musashi | genii, so do you think most people use the fan scaling on their mobo (if it's offered)? this is a desktop not a laptop | 01:49 |

| choudesh | BuckWild: per monitor | 01:52 |

| iissmart | I have two sata disks configured in a raid-0, using nvraid, is there a way for the ubuntu 7.10 installer to see this? | 01:53 |
| choudesh | iissmart: yes - the alternate CD installer should | 01:53 |
| BuckWild | choudesh, honestly, what I think is happening is that gnome is storing the resolution settings somewhere, cuz I get a graphical login prompt, and then I get the resolution error afterwards | 01:53 |
| areels | thank you again choudesh | 01:53 |
| BuckWild | choudesh, do you know of anything like that in gnome? | 01:53 |
| iissmart | choudesh, but does the alternate cd include all the same features as the regular cd? | 01:53 |
| Nimby | Hi I am trying to set some drives to auto mount but I cant remember how to get the info I need to add to fstab | 01:54 |
| choudesh | BuckWild: gnome doesn't remember any resolution settings. it gets everything from xandr. Check the documentation for your monitor and figure out the vertical and horizontal refresh rates and I will help you set them up | 01:54 |
| choudesh | iissmart: yes | 01:54 |
| choudesh | iissmart: it has a few more features since it doesn't have the overhead of the liveCD | 01:55 |

| ubotu | A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? | 02:22 |
| eylisian | alyxander, System > Admin > Software Sources | Authentication Tab, Import Key File button. | 02:22 |
| alyxander | yea eylisian its there but i have to do what download it to the site | 02:22 |
| genii | Creed: You don't need to run it all as root either, just sudo su - or the equivelent sudo switch which I currently forget | 02:22 |
| Creed | genii, thanks :) Can I use IP aliasing instead of two NIC's? The extra NIC I have is 10mbit...kinda sad considering I get 8mbit from comcast with powerboost up to 20mbit. | 02:22 |
| bobgill | My partitions and DVD have stopped automatically mounting when I put a DVD in or plug in my USB hard drive... any ideas?? | 02:23 |
| xenthro | I need the help of someone knowledgeable: When i installed gutsy I had no sound. Then, randomly, it started working and I have been using it for 3 weeks. Now the sound disappeared again. I am ripping my hair out... | 02:23 |
| ctjctj | ubotu: ok, how do I make apt-get install a version from hardy when I've install gutsy? | 02:23 |
| genii | Creed: If you have some intermediate switch both boxes are in I thnk it would work | 02:23 |
| assumer | xenthro: do you have another OS installed? | 02:23 |
| joseph | Question: How do I designate a folder for Amarok to put my podcasts in? By default it places them in /home/joseph/.kde/share/apps/amarok/podcasts/, I would like to place them in my music folder and there does not seem to be an option the the Settings--> Configure Amarok option | 02:23 |
| genii | afk low batter | 02:23 |
| Creed | genii, yeah, its all hooked up to a hp gigabit switch. | 02:23 |
| MasterShrek | xenthro, have you updated your kernel recently/ | 02:23 |
| eylisian | alyxander, sit in a directory where you won't loose the file and issue: wget http://www.thinkgos.com/files/gos_repo_key.asc | 02:23 |
| xenthro | yes, this happened right after i booted into windows for the first time since i installed it | 02:23 |
| inoex135 | somebody use gutsy realtime? | 02:23 |
| eylisian | inoex135, all day long. | 02:24 |
| MasterShrek | joseph, remove that folder and create a symlink from it to your desired location | 02:24 |
| genii | Damn you Kovalev! | 02:24 |
| WuGutsyClan | hey whats a good backup utility, I have 2 drives connected through IDE (the second is mounted), and I want to (while both are mounted) make an EXACT copy of the main HD to the mounted second hd | 02:24 |
| eylisian | inoex135, production | 02:24 |
| scguy318 | ctjctj: probably edit your sources then dist-upgrade, I THINK, not totally sure | 02:24 |
| assumer | xenthro: sometimes i have trouble if i turn down the volume all the way in windows and then boot into kubuntu, no issues in ubuntu though. IDK what causes it really | 02:24 |
| === Jannita is now known as Johanna | ||
| genii | sorry wrong channel | 02:24 |
| xenthro | mastershrek, i have not updated my kernel | 02:24 |
| inoex135 | eylisian, can you give me example source code using realtime kernel | 02:24 |
| === Johanna is now known as Jannita | ||
| assumer | xenthro:nvrmind I actually can't help you in any meaningful way | 02:25 |
| inoex135 | i'm newbie in realtime and try to make realtime aplication but don't know how to start | 02:25 |
| ctjctj | scguy318, thank you. | 02:25 |
| eylisian | inoex135, crossed wires. I took a different meaning to your "realtime" I think. | 02:25 |
| scguy318 | ctjctj: you might be better off asking in #ubuntu+1 | 02:25 |
| xenthro | assumer, thanks for the suggestion, ill see if it gets me somewhere | 02:25 |
| ctjctj | scguy318, Ok. Why? | 02:25 |
| inoex135 | eylisian, i mean apltication that use realtime kernel | 02:25 |
| Blue89 | is the latest beta version of skype in the package manager or do I have to download and install it by hand | 02:25 |
| scguy318 | ctjctj: because that channel is dedicated to Hardy discussion/support | 02:25 |
| ctjctj | Ah, thank you. | 02:25 |
| eylisian | alyxander, how's it going? | 02:25 |
| xenthro | blue89, by hand | 02:25 |
| Blue89 | :-/ | 02:25 |
| Kragnerac | :) | 02:26 |
| inoex135 | eylisian, i read that gutsy has it, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RealTime/Gutsy | 02:26 |
| Blue89 | oh well, thanks anyway | 02:26 |
| alyxander | havent figured out how to save the key file yet lol eylisian | 02:26 |
| inoex135 | i installed them, but now i don't knowt what to do next :D | 02:26 |
| eylisian | alyxander, use thwe command: wget http://www.thinkgos.com/files/gos_repo_key.asc | 02:26 |
| joseph | MasterShrek, how do I create a symlink? | 02:26 |
| eylisian | that will download and save it to the directory you are in. | 02:26 |
| alyxander | ok so not what | 02:27 |
| Blue89 | actually, I use gentoo. a buddy of mine is on ubuntu and he can't see me because he doesn't have the video-capable version. :-/ | 02:27 |
| alyxander | eylisian, | 02:27 |
| eylisian | inoex135, I know nothing of embedded Linux except it's cool in my WRT54G | 02:27 |
| Blue89 | I doubt I can persuade him to do it by hand... | 02:27 |
| eylisian | alyxander, | 02:27 |
| alyxander | now what? | 02:27 |
| eylisian | alyxander, you saved using wget? | 02:27 |
| alyxander | yup | 02:27 |
| alyxander | not sure to where lol | 02:28 |
| MasterShrek | joseph, ln -s /path/to/source/folder /path/to/desired/symlink | 02:28 |
| eylisian | alyxander, now use the: System > Administration > Software Sources thingie to import it. Auth tab. | 02:28 |
| alyxander | right but where did that file go? | 02:28 |
| eylisian | alyxander, it saved to the directory you were in. Most likely your hoome dir. | 02:28 |
| eylisian | s/hoome/hoome | 02:28 |
| savi0r666 | hey when i loaded startx-xgl the effects work great but it windows all my fullscreen apps how can i change that?? | 02:28 |
| eylisian | heh | 02:29 |
| eylisian | s/hoome/home | 02:29 |
| eylisian | alyxander, you can search for it to... Places > Search | 02:30 |
| joseph | Master Shrek, so it would look like ln -s /home/joseph/.kde/share/apps/amarok/podcasts/ /home/joseph/music/symlink ? | 02:30 |
| alyxander | i got it sweet | 02:30 |
| alyxander | lets see if it works | 02:30 |
| savi0r666 | hey when i loaded startx-xgl the effects work great but it windows all my fullscreen apps how can i change that?? | 02:30 |

| alyxander | Failed to fetch http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/gutsy-security/Release Unable to find expected entry web/binary-i386/Packages in Meta-index file (malformed Release file?) | 02:31 |
| alyxander | what about that one | 02:31 |
| tonyyarusso | I often have trouble with nautilus taking enormous amounts of CPU time in 7.10. This never happened before. Has anyone else seen something like that? | 02:31 |
| eylisian | alyxander, might be something munged in your sources.list | 02:31 |
| MasterShrek | bbl | 02:32 |
| alyxander | thats what i was told | 02:32 |
| eylisian | alyxander, sudo aptitude update gives you that response? | 02:32 |
| eylisian | or updating synaptic? | 02:32 |
| alyxander | apt-get update but yeah eylisian | 02:32 |
| eylisian | alyxander, ok. can you paste yer sources.list somewhere in a pastebin you can link to? | 02:33 |
| alyxander | hang on | 02:33 |
| eylisian | alyxander, /etc/apt/sources.list is the file name... ok. afk brb. | 02:33 |

| josiahw_ | what is the command to show the progress when something is being done (in this case converted) in terminal? | 02:35 |
| alyxander | josiahw_, try top im not really sure what your looking for | 02:36 |
| Datalanche | Hi. When I run glxinfo I see "server glx vendor string: SGI". Is it supposed to be this and not Mesa. I am using Gutsy.... just trying to troubleshoot why X is so slow. I'm using the open source ati driver right now. | 02:37 |
| josiahw_ | I am trying to convert a .dmg file to a .iso file. The command is "sudo dmg2iso.pl filename.dmg filename.iso". After I do that It takes some time to convert and I want to know the progress. | 02:38 |
| KNYlaptop | where is the info for saved sessions stored? | 02:38 |
| jrib | josiahw_: there is no need for sudo there | 02:39 |
| josiahw_ | jrib: I just did it in case :) | 02:39 |
| KNYlaptop | (by saved sessions I mean System > Preferences > Sessions) | 02:39 |
| jrib | josiahw_: usually, it's up to the program to show you the progress | 02:39 |

| josiahw_ | jrib: ah that sucks... it doesnt have a man page and I cant find any commands on the web besides what I have just displayed | 02:40 |
| genii | I think there used to be some hotkey for progress indicator.... F7 perhaps | 02:41 |
| Datalanche | josiahw_: Try running the command with no arguments and see if it will tell you anything | 02:41 |
| xenthro | assumer, it works! Thank you! You helped me find the solution! I went into windows and cranked up the volume... but that didnt get it working in ubuntu... then i figured out that i needed to completely power down my system so there is no residual code left in memory. I removed my battery, unplugged my laptop and when i booted up ubuntu, it worked! thank you | 02:41 |
| Datalanche | Maybe there is a verbose switch or something | 02:41 |
| aldren | Jack_Sparrow, how many languages does the bot has? like you did | 02:42 |

| caligarn1037 | sweet thanks | 02:43 |

| Clay_The_Arc | Jack_Sparrow | 02:43 |
| Clay_The_Arc | yes i am ;-; | 02:43 |
| KNYlaptop | aldren, no problem | 02:43 |
| Clay_The_Arc | i have gnome ppp installed finally, but it always says "No dialtone" | 02:44 |
| Clay_The_Arc | when i try it but then i open up windows and connect and it goes thru | 02:44 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Clay_The_Arc: A winmodem will do that | 02:44 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Clay_The_Arc: They are not real modems.. | 02:44 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Clay_The_Arc: but lets see what we can find out | 02:44 |
| Radi01 | Get a zoom modem.it is a great modem with built in lightening protection. | 02:45 |
| Clay_The_Arc | Radi01 | 02:45 |
| Radi01 | ya | 02:45 |
| Clay_The_Arc | is it internal or external? | 02:45 |
| Radi01 | external | 02:45 |
| Clay_The_Arc | ISDN or PPP? | 02:45 |
| Radi01 | google zoom modems | 02:45 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Clay_The_Arc: dmesg | grep ttyS shows what... and I use an airlink external | 02:45 |
| Datalanche | When I run glxinfo I see "server glx vendor string: SGI". Is it supposed to be this and not Mesa? I am using Gutsy.... | 02:45 |
| Clay_The_Arc | Jack_Sparrow i'd have to boot up into ubuntu | 02:46 |
| Clay_The_Arc | what'd you pay for ur external? | 02:46 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Clay_The_Arc: Hard to trouble shoot without that.. but let me post my notes on modems for you | 02:46 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Clay_The_Arc: frys way $25 | 02:46 |
| Jack_Sparrow | was | 02:46 |
| scguy318 | Clay_The_Arc: there are resources for getting Winmodems to work on Linux | 02:46 |
| zeeeeee | how does apt know which dependencies to 'garbage collect' (when uninstalling an app)? does apt maintain a list of the packages that i've explicitly installed, so that it doesn't garbage-collect those? if so, how can i see this list? | 02:46 |
| Radi01 | I got one for my brother they are about 60 on up..they are just what you need and want..dont compromise. | 02:47 |
| Jack_Sparrow | scguy318: I cant justify paying as much for a driver than I would for a real modem | 02:47 |
| eylisian | alyxander, I am outtie. Good luck on a clean update. | 02:47 |
| KNYlaptop | zeeeeee, sudo apt-get autoremove | 02:47 |
| scguy318 | Jack_Sparrow: who says we're paying for anything? | 02:47 |
| scguy318 | Clay_The_Arc: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto | 02:47 |
| KNYlaptop | zeeeeee, and sudo apt-get autoclean (IIRC, might want to check on that) | 02:47 |
| scguy318 | Jack_Sparrow: I do agree that's a ripoff | 02:47 |
| Jack_Sparrow | scguy318: to get the fuoll speed driver for a winmodem isnt free | 02:47 |
| Clay_The_Arc | al | 02:47 |
| Clay_The_Arc | ah* | 02:47 |
| Clay_The_Arc | ill take a look at that scguy318 | 02:48 |
| Clay_The_Arc | and Jack_Sparrow you'reon dialup as well? | 02:48 |
| Radi01 | I agree jack..get the real mccoy. | 02:48 |
| scguy318 | Jack_Sparrow: Linmodems.org seem to have useful stuff, eh | 02:48 |
| zeeeeee | KNYlaptop, i'm aware of this feature; that's what prompted my question :) | 02:48 |
| hal9k2010 | hello all | 02:48 |
| josiahw_ | is there a Nero for linux? | 02:49 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Clay_The_Arc: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/46059/ I have one available.. but dsl here | 02:49 |
| scguy318 | !burning | josiahw_ | 02:49 |
| ubotu | josiahw_: CD/DVD Burning software: K3b (KDE), gnomebaker, serpentine, graveman, Nautilus cd burner (Gnome), gtoaster, xcdroast, cdrecord (terminal-based). Burning .iso files: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto | 02:49 |
| Radi01 | clay..you will be playing with drivers till the moon turns blue: go get a zoom modem. | 02:49 |
| scguy318 | josiahw_: yes | 02:49 |
| Jack_Sparrow | josiahw_: k3b is better | 02:49 |
| scguy318 | josiahw_: k3b or what ubotu just showed ya | 02:49 |
| scguy318 | josiahw_: there is Nero Linux but crap imho | 02:49 |
| josiahw_ | I have k3b but it wont burn a .dmg file I have to cd and I hear that Nero can burn .dmg | 02:49 |
| followme` | I just installed ubuntu on my computer and I'm wondering how to search for wireless networks | 02:49 |
| Clay_The_Arc | Radi01 | 02:49 |
| KNYlaptop | zeeeeee, I believe that when you "apt-get remove" a package, it gives a friendly reminder to run autormove, rather than mucking about with your installed apps | 02:49 |
| Radi01 | yes | 02:49 |
| Clay_The_Arc | i'd prefer not to buy anything new | 02:49 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Clay_The_Arc: here is my cheat sheet for my modem.. http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/46059/ | 02:50 |
| scguy318 | josiahw_: I think you can convert those, or you could mount with fuseiso | 02:50 |
| Clay_The_Arc | i've already spent like | 02:50 |
| Clay_The_Arc | 3months on it | 02:50 |
| Clay_The_Arc | ;\ | 02:50 |
| Radi01 | ok clay..but if you do..thats the one to get. | 02:50 |
| Clay_The_Arc | i'll see if they have 1 at walmart | 02:50 |
| Clay_The_Arc | next time I go | 02:50 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Clay_The_Arc: then the basic linmodems.org is the place to be | 02:50 |
| josiahw_ | I tried converting the .dmg file to a .iso using dmg2iso but it doesnt seem to be working scguy318 | 02:50 |
| robdig | followme`: iwlist scan you may have to do sudo, don't remember | 02:50 |
| scguy318 | josiahw_: hmm, I guess you could try Nero Linux if you had to | 02:51 |
| zeeeeee | KNYlaptop, i'm afraid i didn't make myself clear. i'm interested in getting a list of all the explicitly installed apps. (for instance, if i wanted to set up a similar configuration on ubuntu sites in the future, when the dependencies might not be the same, i could issue an install command with just these packages) | 02:51 |
| KNYlaptop | ahh | 02:51 |
| scguy318 | Clay_The_Arc: running the scanModem tool from the site should be the starting point for getting it to work | 02:51 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Clay_The_Arc: in general... a full hardware external will work.. | 02:51 |
| Radi01 | wallmart won't sell quality products: I am a tech electronics..most of what walmart sells is assembly repaired products sold to them in bulk: This is why they sell cheap. | 02:51 |
| ma1 | pelo_:how can i check to know if there is a problem with my system ? | 02:51 |
| followme` | robdig can you give me more details? I'm not very familiar with ubuntu | 02:51 |
| IdleOne | !cloning | zeeeeee | 02:51 |
| ubotu | zeeeeee: To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type « dpkg --get-selections > ~/my-packages », move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type « sudo dpkg --set-selections < my-packages && apt-get dselect-upgrade » - See also !automate | 02:51 |
| Clay_The_Arc | Radi01 | 02:51 |
| Clay_The_Arc | i'm aware of that | 02:51 |
| josiahw_ | scguy318: how would i mount it with fuseiso? what is the command? | 02:51 |
| Radi01 | yes | 02:51 |
| zeeeeee | ubotu, i know about that answer | 02:51 |
| Clay_The_Arc | but it's cheap and i'm 14 | 02:52 |
| zeeeeee | er, IdleOne | 02:52 |
| Joshooa | Does anybody know what would make my connected to my router INCREDIBLY slow? | 02:52 |
| scguy318 | josiahw_: you need to install fuseiso, of course, but you would do | 02:52 |
| Clay_The_Arc | so.... money is a factory | 02:52 |
| Clay_The_Arc | :] | 02:52 |
| Clay_The_Arc | oooo | 02:52 |
| Clay_The_Arc | conextant has a site | 02:52 |
| Clay_The_Arc | D: | 02:52 |
| robdig | followme`: one way is to open a terminal, and type in iwlist scan | 02:52 |
| zeeeeee | IdleOne, that's why i said "future" and "dependencies might not be the same" | 02:52 |
| Radi01 | Then go to bsst buy and get a best data external moden..they are around 20-30 dollars | 02:52 |
| Radi01 | best | 02:52 |
| Clay_The_Arc | well | 02:52 |
| Clay_The_Arc | nearest best buy | 02:52 |
| Clay_The_Arc | is like hr and a half away | 02:53 |
| robdig | followme`: what i don't remember is if you have to type sudo first, but it you do, it will tell you | 02:53 |
| Radi01 | what about circuit city | 02:53 |
| IdleOne | zeeeeee: same packages require same depends I would think | 02:53 |
| TyFuZ^^ | Hi I have a problem with either the mouse or desktop.. i use kubuntu and when i use the menu the windows like adept manager, Kopete etc wont work and when i'm using them the menu wont work.. unless i right click.. anyone have an idea of what the problem could be? | 02:53 |
| zeeeeee | it seems that the negation of my answer is in /var/lib/apt/extended_states | 02:53 |
| scguy318 | josiahw_: fuseiso imagefile /mnt/point | 02:53 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Clay_The_Arc: You can get it to work with the free drivers, just not at 56k | 02:53 |
| josiahw_ | scguy318: thank you | 02:53 |
| scguy318 | josiahw_: man fuseiso for more information | 02:53 |
| ma1 | jack_sparrow:how can i check to know if there is a problem with my system ? | 02:53 |
| Clay_The_Arc | Jack_Sparrow | 02:53 |
| robdig | followme`: you should also be able to do it in network manager if you like graphical better, think you just hit the network list dropdown | 02:53 |
| zeeeeee | IdleOne, new versions | 02:53 |
| Clay_The_Arc | i don't get 56k to work anyways | 02:53 |
| Clay_The_Arc | the most i ever connect at is 36.6 | 02:53 |
| Jack_Sparrow | ma1: you need to redefine your question | 02:54 |
| scguy318 | Clay_The_Arc: 56k is hitting theoretical limit anyway | 02:54 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Clay_The_Arc: you wont get 33.6 | 02:54 |
| Clay_The_Arc | oh well | 02:54 |
| Clay_The_Arc | i can deal with that. | 02:54 |

| scguy318 | prappl93: download all packages from the repositories? not really | 03:18 |
| scguy318 | !aptoncd | prappl93 | 03:18 |
| ubotu | prappl93: APTonCD is a tool with a graphical interface which allows you to create one or more CDs or DVDs with all of the packages you've downloaded via apt-get or aptitude, creating a removable repository that you can use on other computers | 03:18 |
| p | One last question, Why I got "(firefox-bin:9273): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:" error message when I try to do "schroot firefox" ? | 03:18 |
| xenthro | Joshooa sorry to hear that. I have been using my dlink for years without incident. As for random disconnects, there may be a diff problem. I used to play an mmorpg that i got d/ced from b/c the one of the servers along the traceroute kept fropping me. Have you run a traceroute to the wow server? | 03:18 |
| usser | prappl93, thereare guides on the net | 03:19 |
| IdleOne | prappl93: ubotu gave you a link before. see !repos | 03:19 |
| Jack_Sparrow | mirror | 03:19 |
| usser | prappl93, hang on i'll look it up | 03:19 |
| linux88 | usser its wireless dsl | 03:19 |
| prappl93 | I mean GET all repos so it will search from them | 03:19 |
| usser | prappl93, yea | 03:19 |
| xenthro | Joshooa dropping* | 03:19 |
| linux88 | usser and yes second. i want to put a router in my room | 03:19 |
| BloodyTux | Jack_Sparrow: Nope. | 03:19 |
| prappl93 | Usser, there is a command to fetch all of them? | 03:19 |
| Joshooa | xenthro: No, well my brother is upstairs playing it right now, but he's plugged in directly, I'm wireless | 03:19 |
| scguy318 | prappl93: like update the package lists and the like? sudo apt-get update | 03:19 |
| Jack_Sparrow | BloodyTux: what about recovery mode? | 03:20 |
| thinh | what command to i use to copy file from ssh session into my machine? | 03:20 |
| xenthro | Joshooa my gf had the exact same router you did. It was crap. the wifi dropped all the time. I got her a $40 dlink and shes happy. | 03:20 |
| usser | prappl93, here take a look at this | 03:20 |
| usser | prappl93, http://popey.com/Creating_an_Ubuntu_repository_mirror_with_apt-mirror | 03:20 |
| BloodyTux | Jack_Sparrow: That's where I learned it's stuck at io scheduler | 03:20 |
| scguy318 | thinh: scp I think, I dunno the exact syntax | 03:20 |
| thinh | thanks let me look it up | 03:21 |
| usser | linux88, in your room u want wireless? | 03:21 |
| d0s4gw | Has anyone here had any luck getting the Citrix ICA client working in Ubuntu 7.10? | 03:21 |
| thinh | if i ssh into a machine how do i download something from that computer to my local machine? | 03:21 |
| linux88 | usser i get wireless in here but want a second router in here so i can direct connect to the router and connect my xbox to it | 03:21 |
| Jack_Sparrow | BloodyTux: Sorry.. I dont have a clue and I am exhausted... good luck.. someone will know | 03:21 |
| Nimby | can some please help me automount some ntfs partitions, I have the fdisk -l infor but if I remember correct I need the UI??? info to add to fstab | 03:21 |
| usser | linux88, theres usually no need for two routers u can usually get around with using hubs for wired or just access points that are able to retranslate the signal | 03:22 |
| dfwlinuxguy | thinh...ssh itself doesn't have anything to do with downloading | 03:22 |
| scguy318 | thinh: you use the scp command on the client machine to transfer I think | 03:22 |
| BloodyTux | Jack_Sparrow: Thanks anyways. | 03:22 |
| scguy318 | dfwlinuxguy: but it does, in a way | 03:22 |
| dfwlinuxguy | thinh...maybe you should look at scp | 03:22 |
| scguy318 | dfwlinuxguy: SSH has the SCP/SFTP protocols | 03:22 |
| sabaccatus | Has anyone ever installed the ieee80211 subsystem on Gustsy? | 03:22 |
| dfwlinuxguy | ssh is like telnet | 03:22 |
| usser | linux88, the simplest solution would be to run a cat5 wire into your room and have a hub there | 03:22 |
| dfwlinuxguy | it logs you in to a remote session | 03:22 |
| xenthro | d0s4gw good luck. I tried a few years ago and ran against a wall. Ironically, the citirix ica server should run fine | 03:22 |
| dfwlinuxguy | just like telnet | 03:22 |
| scguy318 | dfwlinuxguy: not really :P | 03:23 |
| scguy318 | dfwlinuxguy: you can do stuff over SSH without a controlling terminal | 03:23 |
| prappl93 | I fixed it | 03:23 |
| dfwlinuxguy | not really what? | 03:23 |
| prappl93 | It was set to load from CD only, not online | 03:23 |
| prappl93 | Thanks for the help though | 03:23 |
| scguy318 | dfwlinuxguy: so it's not really equivalent to Telnet | 03:23 |
| sabaccatus | Can anyone help me compile the ieee80211 subsystem on Gutsy? | 03:23 |
| musashi | can anyone help me understand the rsync syntax? i want to copy all files from my old home on sda1 to my new home on sdb1 but i don't want to copy the hidden files and some were manually copied already so it should skip those. i can't figure out all the options and the order of stuff. thanks. | 03:23 |
| d0s4gw | It is running... it's giving me cert issues. | 03:23 |
| pestilence | what's your opinion: should i be able to play 720p HD video on my laptop without a problem? i have a core2 duo processor, with a nvidia video card. | 03:23 |
| xenthro | d0s4gw wow. then i have been out of the loop for a while | 03:23 |
| dfwlinuxguy | yes it really is | 03:24 |
| d0s4gw | xenthro: heh, yea I wish I didn't have to use it. | 03:24 |
| d0s4gw | It's the last relic keeping me on windows at work... | 03:24 |
| dfwlinuxguy | except that telnet doesn't include things like sftp and scp | 03:24 |
| babyTux | I have a question about wireless networking. It's working, but I'm having a specific problem at my hotel. It doesn't seem to DHCP. | 03:24 |
| pestilence | when i use mplayer, it chops up every so often, making the video unwatchable | 03:24 |
| sabaccatus | Can anyone help me compile the ieee80211 subsystem on Gutsy? | 03:25 |
| dfwlinuxguy | you can't remotely log into a server and start transferring things with the ssh command | 03:25 |
| robdig | d0s4gw: i found this that may help http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=17979 | 03:25 |
| scguy318 | dfwlinuxguy: true, though I believe that SSH is geared towards secure transfer of information, whereas Telnet is designed for simple terminal interaction | 03:26 |
| varun0 | the version of pidgin in the repo is 2.2.1, but the most current version is 2.2.3. Is there a way to install 2.2.3? | 03:26 |
| scguy318 | varun0: sure, from tarball or find a deb | 03:26 |
| usser | sabaccatus, What are u trying to do? | 03:26 |
| TyFuZ^^ | Hi I have a problem with either the mouse or desktop.. i use kubuntu and when i use the menu the windows like adept manager, Kopete etc wont work and when i'm using them the menu wont work.. unless i right click.. and sometimes only parts of the windows work.. anyone have an idea of what the problem could be? | 03:26 |
| dfwlinuxguy | yes...but he was talking about file transfer...I assumed that he knew that ssh was encrypted and telnet was not | 03:26 |
| varun0 | scguy318: any idea where I can find a deb? so much cleaner :-) | 03:26 |
| Cpudan80 | Hello all | 03:26 |
| scguy318 | dfwlinuxguy: ah :) | 03:26 |
| scguy318 | varun0: try getdeb.net | 03:26 |
| Cpudan80 | I've got a tiny problem with Ubuntu on my Thinkpad | 03:26 |
| babyTux | wireless networking: It's working, but on a particular network it is either not connecting or won't DHCP. | 03:26 |
| scguy318 | varun0: or google I'll look | 03:26 |
| sabaccatus | usser: I'm trying to compile the ieee80211 subsystem and I'm getting an error | 03:26 |
| Nimby | this is the 3rd time I have tried here, what a waste of time today | 03:27 |
| bmk789 | anyone have an ati/nvidia RF remote? | 03:27 |
| Nimby | yesterday was excellent | 03:27 |
| Cpudan80 | I run in a docking cradle, and when I boot up, the screen resolution is all wrong (it's 800x600 i think) | 03:27 |
| Cpudan80 | Is there any way I can FORCE X to ALWAYS use 1024x768 ? | 03:27 |
| babyTux | @Nimby then come back yesterday | 03:27 |
| Cpudan80 | or higher I guess | 03:27 |
| xenthro | d0s4gw I may have a solution for you. you should have "tsclient" installed. run it | 03:27 |
| usser | sabaccatus, is there a need to do it? | 03:27 |
| scguy318 | varun0: hmm, the one on getdeb is seriously old | 03:28 |
| scguy318 | varun0: lemme check some other sources | 03:28 |
| sabaccatus | usser: yes, I completely wiped my old version to install the new one | 03:28 |
| varun0 | scguy318: yea I just saw that. Awesome........thanks so much, I really appreciate it | 03:28 |
| HarryMcScary | Is anyone in here familiar with WebDav or davfs2? | 03:28 |
| Tom47 | is there a way of chatting with someone , or sending a message to someone on local network? | 03:28 |
| xenthro | d0s4gw in the description for tsclient, it says that it is compatible with citrix | 03:28 |
| Tom47 | in X | 03:28 |
| sabaccatus | usser: do you know much about the ieee80211 and ipw2200? | 03:29 |
| babyTux | is there an equivalent of ipconfig /release and /renew in linux? I've tried ifconfig eth1 down, ifconfig eth1 up | 03:30 |
| babyTux | but that doesn't seem to resolve my problem | 03:30 |
| dfwlinuxguy | scguy318...I was really just trying to address the file transfer thing and making an analogy..most people have heard of/used telnet and just using ssh is about like telnet with encryption (I know you can do stuff like ssh -X, but that's not what he was asking) | 03:30 |
| dfwlinuxguy | scguy318..and forward ports, etc...etc...etc | 03:31 |
| usser | sabaccatus, no i dont but i think its all in the repos unless there are some functions that are only available in the latest betas/alphas | 03:31 |
| robdig | babyTux: if you want to bring the interface up/down, use ifup eth1 or ifdown eth1 | 03:31 |
| robdig | babyTux: you will have to put sudo before them i think | 03:32 |
| Nimby | How do I get the UUID information of my hard drives ? PLEASE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! | 03:32 |
| charding | Anyone know why I do not get a boot screen while ubuntu is loading from a fresh power-on? | 03:32 |
| gtrew | is there a way to recursively search through a directory for a file type like *.wav, and copy them to a directory? | 03:32 |
| scguy318 | dfwlinuxguy: ah, I see :) | 03:32 |
| dfwlinuxguy | babyTux /etc/init.d/networking stop|start|restart | 03:32 |
| smacky | having trouble updateing my video card | 03:32 |
| assumer | one exclamation is enough | 03:32 |
| sabaccatus | usser: well that's the problem, the versions in the repos are a little out dated | 03:32 |
| charding | All I get is a black screen till I get the login screen | 03:32 |
| babyTux | well I've done that is there a way to tell if I"m just not connecting to the wireless or if I'm having dhcp issues? | 03:32 |
| d0s4gw | xenthro: it looks like TSClient is a remote desktop app. I don't require remote desktop, I need to use the Citrix web client. | 03:32 |
| usser | sabaccatus, whats the error it gives? | 03:32 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Nimby: sudo vol_id -u /dev/sda7 or whatever | 03:32 |
| charding | And removing the 'quiet' from the last cmd for the bootup sequence does not change anything | 03:32 |
| d0s4gw | Close though. | 03:33 |
| Boohbah | Tom47: the 'talk' program, but that's text based, but you might find an X frontend | 03:33 |
| AmbienNOD | Hello, is anyone aware of a program, that can record data transfered, (amount of data), and that information to be logged and give statistics, monthly, yearly, daily, anything close to this would be great also | 03:33 |
| musashi | okay, rephrase my rsync question. will this work to copy files from old home (on /media/old/) to new home while preserving perms and not copying hidden files or overwriting anything --> rsync -r --exclude '.*' /media/old/home/musashi/ /home/musashi/ | 03:33 |
| scguy318 | varun0: hmm, theres the deb on Ubuntu Forums but seems unreliable | 03:33 |
| Boohbah | AmbienNOD: MRTG | 03:33 |
| sabaccatus | usser: hold on, I'm pulling it up | 03:33 |
| scguy318 | varun0: best bet is to tarball install | 03:33 |
| AmbienNOD | excellent thank you | 03:34 |
| Nimby | Thank you very much Jack_Sparrow | 03:34 |
| Tom47 | Boohbah: ok ty i will look around | 03:34 |
| Jack_Sparrow | np | 03:34 |
| usser | sabaccatus, pastebin it | 03:34 |
| dfwlinuxguy | AmbienNOD...you can use IPTABLES for that | 03:34 |
| Nimby | and a big /rasp to babyTux | 03:34 |
| varun0 | scguy318: will do. thanks much, man. really appreciate it | 03:34 |
| babyTux | what'd I do Nimby? | 03:34 |
| sabaccatus | usser: what's pastebin? | 03:35 |
| Creationist | Could someone tell me why I'm unable to add items (specifically avant-window-navigator) to my auto-start? I add it in, but when I login the next time, it doesn't start and the entry is no longer in Startup programs... | 03:35 |
| Creationist | !pastebin | sabaccatus | 03:35 |
| ubotu | sabaccatus: 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) | 03:35 |
| usser | !pastebin | sabaccatus | 03:35 |
| usser | sorry | 03:35 |
| varun0 | scguy318: I can't seem to find it on the website, but is there a repo for get deb? | 03:35 |
| xenthro | d0s4gw http://osdir.com/ml/ubuntu.user.british/2006-07/msg00076.html ?? | 03:35 |
| dfwlinuxguy | AMbienNOD.... http://www.linux.com/articles/50649 | 03:35 |
| sabaccatus | usser: ok... gimme a sec | 03:36 |
| Clay_The_Arc | ugh | 03:36 |
| Clay_The_Arc | a 14k driver? ;-; | 03:36 |
| smacky | using 7.10 I am having troubles updating my video card | 03:36 |
| Jack_Sparrow | told you you would not like it | 03:36 |
| Clay_The_Arc | thats all the support it gives for free... | 03:36 |
| Clay_The_Arc | i guess its better than nothing though | 03:36 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Clay_The_Arc: modems are cheap.. mow a couple lawns and get a new hardware modem | 03:37 |
| Clay_The_Arc | i get $30 a week | 03:37 |
| Clay_The_Arc | i just dont wanna spend all $30 on a new modem | 03:37 |
| mdonahoe | anybody ever get an s9 headset connected w/ gutsy? | 03:38 |
| Boohbah | with $30 a week you could get broadband service... | 03:38 |
| sabaccatus | usser: I just pasted it | 03:38 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Clay_The_Arc: I can gather enough cans in a day to make $30 | 03:38 |
| usser | Clay_The_Arc, spend on wifi card and leech traffic of your neighbors like everyone does :) | 03:38 |
| Evanlec | anyone know how i might save multiple sessions (different apps/windows/files open) in gnome? | 03:38 |
| usser | sabaccatus, give us the link | 03:38 |
| Les_Caesars | hey, what's the console way of searching for files? | 03:38 |
| usser | sabaccatus, paste the link here | 03:38 |
| usser | Les_Caesars, find command but its not obvious to use | 03:38 |
| babyTux | Les_Caesars: find | 03:38 |
| linux88_ | can someone help me set up two wireless routers | 03:38 |
| sabaccatus | er... link? | 03:39 |
| riotkittie | Les_Caesars: you can also use locate | 03:39 |
| Clay_The_Arc | usser | 03:39 |
| Les_Caesars | thanks | 03:39 |
| Boohbah | Les_Caesars: 'locate' is even faster because it searches a database that is periodically updated | 03:39 |
| Clay_The_Arc | i have a wifi card, and my neighbors wifi that i usually used's router crashed | 03:39 |
| Boohbah | Les_Caesars: if the file you're looking for is over a day old, locate is the way to go | 03:39 |
| usser | Clay_The_Arc, go there and fix it for them lol | 03:39 |
| taz_ | hi guys,.. i want to know about firestarter "firewall" | 03:39 |
| riotkittie | if you want to manually update that database, you can sudo updatedb | 03:39 |
| Clay_The_Arc | lol | 03:39 |
| Les_Caesars | Boohbah: yes. But it's much more important for me to know that it searches -thoroughly-. Too many times, finders tend to overlook | 03:40 |
| Dev_noob | I am using Ubuntu 7.10 on an Acer Travelmate 2420 with a Broadcom 4318 chipset. How do I upgrade from using bcm43xx, to using b43? | 03:40 |
| usser | Clay_The_Arc, look annoyed too "damn it u ppl fix u router..." | 03:40 |
| sabaccatus | usser: here is the link http://pastebin.ca/800122 | 03:40 |
| taldar_ | hi | 03:40 |
| Les_Caesars | thanks riotkittie | 03:40 |
| taldar_ | I'm having a problem installing ubuntu. | 03:40 |
| riotkittie | yw, Les_Caesars | 03:40 |
| riotkittie | taldar_: what problem are you having ? | 03:40 |
| Boohbah | Les_Caesars: then use 'find' to be thorough. it's slower and more difficult, but it's thorough :) | 03:40 |
| tonyyarusso | taz_: Firestarter is not a firewall, but merely a frontend for iptables rule configuration. | 03:40 |
| dfwlinuxguy | Les_Caesars...find is the command you are looking for ....man find | 03:40 |
| Jack_Sparrow | taz_: only needed if you want to open port.. else leave them alone.. no traditional firewall neeed | 03:41 |
| usser | sabaccatus, did u try setting SHELL=/bin/bash? | 03:41 |
| taldar_ | ... | 03:41 |
| usser | sabaccatus, like it suggests? | 03:41 |
| Boohbah | !ask | 03:41 |
| ubotu | Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :) | 03:41 |
| Les_Caesars | great! thanks everyone. | 03:41 |
| taz_ | i see | 03:41 |
| HarryMcScary | Is anyone in here familiar with WebDav or davfs2? | 03:41 |
| taldar_ | When I try to install it, I get a console screen involving busybox | 03:41 |
| dfwlinuxguy | HarryMcScary...ask your question | 03:42 |
| Clay_The_Arc | wtfh | 03:42 |
| Clay_The_Arc | where in my | 03:42 |
| babyTux | okay. I'm growing frustrated. I'm connected to a wireless network, 55% (so says the little icon in Gnome). | 03:42 |
| Clay_The_Arc | conextant.txt is my modem version | 03:42 |
| Boohbah | taldar_: which cd are you using? where the heck is the graphical install program? | 03:42 |
| taz_ | allright... how i can clean it up .... like history or cookie ??? | 03:42 |
| babyTux | and I'm not fetchign an ip | 03:42 |
| dfwlinuxguy | HarryMcScary...yes I use it | 03:42 |
| tomd | babyTux: is the wifi network yours? | 03:42 |
| babyTux | i've sudo ifconfig eth1 down, sudo ifconfig eth1 up | 03:42 |
| sabaccatus | usser: Yes I did, same error | 03:42 |
| HarryMcScary | Using davfs2, I'm able to connect through a console, but authentication fails after putting in a password | 03:42 |
| HarryMcScary | Permissions are correct on both ends | 03:42 |
| babyTux | i've /etc/init.d/networking restart and stop start | 03:42 |
| dfwlinuxguy | HarryMcScary...client OS? | 03:43 |
| sabaccatus | usser: is it possible that it is failing because I do not understand how to use ./configure? | 03:43 |
| babyTux | but I'm still not getting an IP | 03:43 |
| Peddy | can anyone tell me what is the best graphic editor for ubuntu, aside from Gimp? | 03:43 |
| babyTux | It works on all other networks | 03:43 |
| HarryMcScary | The server is windows 2003 :/ | 03:43 |
| Dev_noob | How do I go from using bc43xx, to using b43, for my Broadcomm wireless card? | 03:43 |
| HarryMcScary | I'm running gutsy | 03:43 |
| tomd | babyTux: to fetch an IP you must use dhcpbd eth1 | 03:43 |
| regeya | oh geez | 03:43 |
| tomd | babyTux: unless it is static, use ifconfig | 03:43 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !broadcom | 03:43 |
| ubotu | Help with Broadcom bcm43xx can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs/Driver/Broadcom43xx | 03:43 |
| dfwlinuxguy | HarryMcScary...are you asking about dav running on a linux server or win2003 server? | 03:43 |
| d0s4gw | xenthro: Don't take this the wrong way but I think I love you. | 03:43 |
| usser | sabaccatus, yes it may need some parameters that u dont pass it like ./configure --enable blabla | 03:43 |
| dion | how do i install gutsy or feisty on my ps3? | 03:43 |
| julio3patas | ne1 using an ARECA 1210 with ubuntu? | 03:43 |
| scguy318 | tomd: shouldn't the DHCP thing be done automatically by Network Manager? | 03:43 |
| HarryMcScary | The dav is running on the windows server | 03:44 |
| babyTux | dhcpcd isn't installeda | 03:44 |
| scguy318 | dion: lemme link you | 03:44 |
| d0s4gw | xenthro: The last link you sent worked perfectly, thank you so much. | 03:44 |
| taldar_ | sorry, kind of new to the irc thing. not quite sure how it works | 03:44 |
| xenthro | d0s4gw Ill pass the love on to google :) | 03:44 |
| sabaccatus | usser: what kind of configuration much I enable with ./configure? I'm new to linux | 03:44 |
| Clay_The_Arc | hmm | 03:44 |
| tomd | babyTux: dhcpBd not dhcpCd | 03:44 |
| Clay_The_Arc | now i want some | 03:44 |
| scguy318 | dion: http://psubuntu.com/ | 03:44 |
| Clay_The_Arc | serial crackers | 03:44 |
| Clay_The_Arc | ;-; | 03:44 |
| tomd | babyTux, with no caps | 03:44 |
| dfwlinuxguy | HarryMcScary...sorry, I run webdav on apache on ubuntu | 03:44 |
| dion | scguy318: thanx | 03:44 |
| bobby | how do you turn compiz off | 03:44 |
| tomd | scguy318, possibly, if he properly configured his network manager it would do that | 03:44 |
| usser | sabaccatus, i dunno, first off right before u do ./configure | 03:44 |
| Boohbah | babyTux: did you try dhclient? | 03:44 |
| Creationist | bobby: metacity --replace | 03:44 |
| scguy318 | bobby: System -> Prefs -> Appearance | 03:44 |
| babyTux | ifconfig reports RX 462.8K TX:83.8k | 03:44 |
| usser | sabaccatus, do this SHELL=/bin/bash | 03:44 |
| babyTux | but no ip | 03:44 |
| Creationist | bobby: Or what scguy318 suggested ;) | 03:45 |
| tomd | scguy318, however, it seems hes using ifconfig | 03:45 |
| usser | sabaccatus, and then try ./configure | 03:45 |
| tomd | babyTux, what if you do $sudo dhcpbd eth1 | 03:45 |
| sabaccatus | usser: ok... let me try | 03:45 |
| babyTux | you mean dhcpcd? | 03:45 |
| bobby | thanks scguy318 :D | 03:45 |
| babyTux | it's not installed | 03:45 |
| HarryMcScary | Thanks anyway dfwlinuxguy- it's probably something serverside | 03:45 |

| taldar_ | riotkittie: I'm having trouble installing; I'm not getting the graphical installer. | 03:45 |
| dfwlinuxguy | bobby....system-->preferences-->appearances | 03:45 |
| tomd | im sorry babytux;; | 03:45 |
| scguy318 | Creationist: are you really one? :P | 03:45 |
| Boohbah | tomd: what the heck is dhcpbd? | 03:45 |
| tomd | babyTux, its dhcdbd | 03:46 |
| dfwlinuxguy | HarryMcScary...can you connect with win clients? | 03:46 |
| Creationist | scguy318: lol yes, I really am. | 03:46 |
| sabaccatus | usser: I get "bash: ./configure: No such file or directory" when I try to run ./configure | 03:46 |
| babyTux | command not found | 03:46 |
| tomd | babyTux, running $ sudo dhcdbd will do a dhcp discover request getting an ip for your interface from your router | 03:46 |
| Boohbah | dbus interface to dclient huh? interesting | 03:46 |
| HarryMcScary | In the past, yes | 03:46 |
| babyTux | oh wait | 03:46 |
| Boohbah | or you could just use dhclient and not bother with dbus | 03:46 |
| === tobias_ is now known as tobias | ||
| tomd | babyTux, are you positive, try one more time typing dhcdbd copy and paste it from this line | 03:46 |
| scguy318 | babyTux: just do sudo dhclient | 03:46 |
| tomd | ah, dhclient | 03:47 |
| * tomd is used to dhcpcd | 03:47 | |
| usser | sabaccatus, do which bash | 03:47 |
| dfwlinuxguy | HarryMcScary...has anything changed since then? can you test with a win client and confirm you are able to connect? | 03:47 |
| usser | sabaccatus, what does it say | 03:47 |
| scguy318 | usser: why does he need to look for his bash? hes probably using it right, I think? | 03:48 |
| scguy318 | usser: *right now | 03:48 |
| HarryMcScary | Nothing has changed, no. I'm able to connect through firefox to see the documents, but I can't edit or download them | 03:48 |
| babyTux | sudo dhcdbd eth1 gives me no feedback | 03:48 |
| sabaccatus | usser: when I run ./configure I get "bash: ./configure: No such file or directory" | 03:48 |
| babyTux | and ifconfig doesn't report an ip either | 03:48 |
| tomd | babyTux, use sudo dhclient like scguy318 said | 03:48 |
| Clay_The_Arc | Jack_Sparrow | 03:48 |
| scguy318 | sabaccatus: are you in the directory? | 03:48 |
| scguy318 | sabaccatus: where configure is located? | 03:48 |
| tomd | babyTux, it must be something you get when you install gutsy | 03:48 |
| Clay_The_Arc | know of any serial sites? | 03:48 |
| usser | scguy318, well ./configure says his SHELL is not set to bash and refuses to run | 03:48 |
| dfwlinuxguy | HarryMcScary...the server side is the more difficult to configure...clients should be able to connect if the server is setup correctly...sounds like a permission problem? | 03:48 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Clay_The_Arc: Jane_Sparrow atm... whats up. | 03:48 |
| scguy318 | usser: that's not what the message says | 03:48 |
| usser | scguy318, http://pastebin.ca/800122 | 03:49 |
| sabaccatus | usser: I am in the directry where ieee80211 has been untarred to | 03:49 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Clay_The_Arc: No, I will not give you serial site to unlock the driver you dont want to pay for.. sorry.. | 03:49 |
| usser | sabaccatus, hm | 03:49 |
| HarryMcScary | Possibly; when I try to connect using nautilus it can't find the folder- trying through the console gives me a 401error | 03:49 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Clay_The_Arc: That was a quote from Jack in the other room | 03:49 |
| usser | sabaccatus, did u ever succesfully run ./configure? | 03:49 |

| Clay_The_Arc | for b/g | 03:52 |
| usser | sabaccatus, really i dont suggest u try to compile wireless stack if u're relatively new to linux | 03:52 |
| dfwlinuxguy | HarryMcScary...a 401 error is an unauthorized error..you have the directory permissions set wrong | 03:52 |

| dfwlinuxguy | Scunizi...belkin makes some great wifi cards with opensource drivers | 03:52 |
| usser | sabaccatus, true but try something easier | 03:52 |
| sabaccatus | usser: I'm not a computer noob, just a linux noob | 03:52 |
| HarryMcScary | On my end? That's odd- I ran sudo chmod u+s /sbin/mount.davfs | 03:52 |
| babyTux | I'm going to try a windows solution...reboot | 03:53 |
| Scunizi | dfwlinuxguy, will they go into the lappy? | 03:53 |
| scguy318 | dfwlinuxguy: not all of them :P I have a crappy Broadcom one | 03:53 |

| emaconline | my firefox wont open | 03:53 |
| Scunizi | dfwlinuxguy, thanks. | 03:53 |
| scguy318 | babyTux: you could try ndiswrapper if the kernel module is being a pain | 03:54 |
| emaconline | after updating to the latest version | 03:54 |
| Dev_noob | it's not bcm43xx, I need the v4 firmware version for hardware cryptography | 03:54 |
| babyTux | the thing is it works on any other network | 03:54 |
| babyTux | just not this hotels | 03:54 |
| babyTux | :( | 03:54 |
| sabaccatus | harrymcscary: no.. there's no conf, config or anything similar in the directory | 03:54 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Jack is getting tired of me asking him questions... | 03:54 |
| HarryMcScary | What error are you getting, emaconline ? | 03:54 |
| babyTux | emaconline what happens when you type firefox at the console? any errors? | 03:54 |
| dfwlinuxguy | emaconline...killall firefox-bin | 03:54 |
| emaconline | just doesnt open | 03:54 |
| HarryMcScary | Is there no configure, either- sabaccatus? | 03:54 |
| emaconline | no errors | 03:54 |
| scguy318 | babyTux: if its a hotel surely there must be a wired jack? | 03:54 |
| babyTux | yeah, but I don't have a cable with me | 03:55 |
| scguy318 | babyTux: well, silly question since you're probably using that right now :P | 03:55 |
| scguy318 | babyTux: oh | 03:55 |
| dfwlinuxguy | emaconline...from the terminal of course...killall firefox-bin...then restart firefox | 03:55 |
| babyTux | no. I'm using my windows laptop | 03:55 |

| emaconline | it just says starting firefox web then it disappears | 03:55 |

| babyTux | what they said. you probably have a hung firefox process | 03:56 |
| emaconline | i tried even restarting.. | 03:56 |
| dfwlinuxguy | emaconline...open a terminal....type killall firefox-bin....close terminal...restart firefox....CELEBRATE | 03:56 |

| regeya | aye, what dfwlinuxguy said | 03:57 |
| usser | sabaccatus, do u have them installed? :P | 03:57 |
| scguy318 | babyTux: I would test the ndiswrapper option and see if that might be helpful, I'll link you | 03:57 |
| crazy6 | ack, apparently I shouldn't cat /dev/input/wacom | 03:57 |

| Scunizi | BonesolTeraDyne, they worked for me prior to uncommenting the 3 lines in xorg, but it was a trade off. With the table buttons working I couldn't configure gimp for the extended input device. | 04:03 |

| Bruno_ | scguy318: | 04:08 |
| Bruno_ | scguy318: thanks | 04:08 |
| usser | sabaccatus, so it doesnt find headers and they are indeed not there | 04:08 |
| scguy318 | Bruno_: np | 04:08 |
| dfwlinuxguy | AdeptSix...https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDPersistence | 04:08 |
| usser | sabaccatus, do cd /lib/modules/2.6.22-14-generic/include && sudo ln -s net/* . | 04:09 |
| usser | sabaccatus, that should take care of it | 04:09 |
| AdeptSix | Thank you for the reference dfw ... and go Cowboys! | 04:09 |
| dfwlinuxguy | thx | 04:09 |
| dfwlinuxguy | they are kicking ass this year | 04:09 |
| sabaccatus | usser: but theres nothing in my net folder... | 04:09 |
| usser | sabaccatus, huh? | 04:10 |
| usser | sabaccatus, its empty? | 04:10 |
| sabaccatus | usser: when I go into /lib/modules/2.6.22-14-generic/include/net/ it is empty | 04:10 |
| Dev_noob | Ok. I extracted the v4 firmware for the Broadcom 4318. How do I make the system switch from using the v3 firmware, to the v4? | 04:10 |
| AdeptSix | I'm stoked man ... I'm actually watching football again ... | 04:10 |
| dfwlinuxguy | me too | 04:10 |
| dfwlinuxguy | hate the patriots though | 04:10 |
| elitest | does anyone know how to boot a cd off a floppy? | 04:10 |
| usser | sabaccatus, when u do sudo sh remove-old pastebin the list of files it gives u | 04:11 |
| scguy318 | !grub | elitest | 04:11 |
| ubotu | elitest: 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 | 04:11 |
| AdeptSix | I do too | 04:11 |
| scguy318 | elitest: the latter link has the info you need | 04:11 |
| AdeptSix | My best friend is a Pats fan ... I thought for sure they would lose sunday. | 04:11 |
| JPSman | so i am one of the unlucky bastards that has a 32-bit system and a soundblaster X-fi sound card. HOW can i send a single to the card to just get a BEEP out of my speakers? | 04:11 |
| scguy318 | elitest: else look at !install | 04:11 |
| sabaccatus | usser: ok... gimme a sec... | 04:11 |
| AdeptSix | Pretty disappointed. | 04:11 |
| scguy318 | JPSman: speaker-test or cat /dev/urandom > /dev/dsp | 04:11 |
| AdeptSix | dfw: That link doesn't quite get around to answer my question however. | 04:12 |
| IdleOne | !ohmy | JPSman | 04:12 |
| ubotu | JPSman: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. | 04:12 |
| dfwlinuxguy | adeptsix...ok..more info | 04:12 |

| Cpudan80 | Hello all | 04:12 |
| pjeide | ubotu awn | 04:12 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about awn - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 04:12 |
| sabaccatus | usser: I just tried and it didn't find any files?!? | 04:12 |
| scguy318 | !test | pjeide | 04:12 |
| ubotu | pjeide: Failed. | 04:12 |
| Scunizi | crazy6, see any differences? I tried with the usb option but couldn't boot into x so I had to comment them out. | 04:12 |
| IdleOne | pjeide: google awn buntu | 04:12 |
| Cpudan80 | How do you determine what xorg.conf file ubuntu is loading? | 04:12 |
| elitest | ubota I tried that the problem is that my bios doesn't support booting anything but a floppy | 04:12 |
| IdleOne | pjeide: google awn ubuntu | 04:12 |
| pjeide | IdleOne: I've read. thank you | 04:12 |
| AdeptSix | I don't know if I can do this or not ... but I would like to login as my user account on my hard disk (while using my live cd to do so) and edit my monitor settings. | 04:12 |
| usser | sabaccatus, sudo make install | 04:12 |
| elitest | grub doesn't have the drivers i need | 04:12 |
| Cpudan80 | I deleted xorg.conf -- but I can still load everything OK | 04:13 |
| JPSman | scguy318 - bash: /dev/dsp: Permission denied | 04:13 |
| usser | sabaccatus, pastebin the output of it | 04:13 |
| Cpudan80 | So... I need to figure out which version of the file Ubuntu is actually using... | 04:13 |
| pjeide | IdleOne, scguy318: I was curious if the bot had anything interesting to add | 04:13 |
| scguy318 | JPSman: strange, prefix with sudo then | 04:13 |
| scguy318 | pjeide: ask it in PM :) | 04:13 |
| dfwlinuxguy | adeptsix..I see...yes...you can mount your hard drive and edit away | 04:13 |
| nomasteryoda | !fbcon | 04:13 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about fbcon - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 04:13 |
| nomasteryoda | !vesafb | 04:13 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about vesafb - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 04:13 |
| JPSman | scguy318 - again bash: /dev/dsp: Permission denied | 04:13 |
| pjeide | scguy318: I was unaware | 04:13 |
| pjeide | ty | 04:13 |
| dfwlinuxguy | adeptsix..you want to use it as a rescue cd...right? | 04:14 |
| Dev_noob | Question. How do I now use the b43-fwcutter extracted firmware INSTEAD of the old bcm43xx-fwcuttern installed firmware? | 04:14 |
| AdeptSix | Can I do that in X or do I need to go through a term? | 04:14 |
| AdeptSix | Essentially yes. | 04:14 |
| nomasteryoda | i thought ubotu knew all "answers" hehe | 04:14 |
| dfwlinuxguy | adeptsix..use the terminal within X is fine | 04:14 |
| scguy318 | JPSman: prefix with sudo in the command perhaps | 04:14 |
| scguy318 | JPSman: or do speaker-test | 04:14 |
| dfwlinuxguy | adeptsix..do you know the device name of your HD? | 04:14 |
| scguy318 | JPSman: oh, in that case | 04:14 |
| scguy318 | JPSman: what's the output of ls -a /dev/dsp | 04:14 |
| RealJaan | Question: I have a new Wireless Router, the software on the cd is just for windows,...any advice on installing the router? it is a Trendnet | 04:14 |
| AdeptSix | 53.6 GB Volume? | 04:15 |
| scguy318 | JPSman: no, sry, I meant ls -l /dev/dsp | 04:15 |
| AdeptSix | I'm pretty much a newb. | 04:15 |
| AdeptSix | :) | 04:15 |
| AdeptSix | /dev/hda1 maybe? | 04:15 |
| arghh2d2 | thats better | 04:15 |
| JPSman | scguy318 - ls: /dev/dsp: No such file or directory | 04:15 |
| dfwlinuxguy | adeptsix..just mount it...example mount /dev/sda1 /media/disk then you are able to access the files under /media/disk (you may have to create media disk...and assuming /dev/sda1 is the / partition) | 04:15 |
| anwealde | Is there a good free program out there that can create an audio file from a video file? | 04:16 |
| arghh2d2 | sda1 or even hda1 | 04:16 |
| Dev_noob | anyone? | 04:16 |
| AdeptSix | okay. | 04:16 |
| scguy318 | anwealde: ffmpeg or mplayer | 04:16 |
| dfwlinuxguy | adeptsix..yes /dev/hda1 would be for an IDE drive | 04:16 |
| dfwlinuxguy | partition 1 | 04:16 |
| usser | anwealde, yep ffmpeg | 04:16 |
| scguy318 | JPSman: hm | 04:16 |
| anwealde | scguy, usser, thanks! | 04:16 |
| dfwlinuxguy | adeptsix..as root...fdisk -l might help you identify it | 04:16 |
| nomasteryoda | Dev_noob, you extract it and then put the firmware into /lib/firmware ? | 04:16 |
| scguy318 | JPSman: looks like your audio device isn't being detected, have you read the wiki pages on audio troubleshooting? | 04:16 |
| scguy318 | !audio | JPSman | 04:16 |
| ubotu | JPSman: 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 | 04:16 |
| nomasteryoda | !fwcutter | 04:17 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about fwcutter - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 04:17 |
| dfwlinuxguy | adeptsix..the info is also burried in the output of dmesg | 04:17 |
| Dev_noob | nomasteryoda: I have it in there, and I have the old BCM43xx files. Should I delete the old files? | 04:17 |
| scguy318 | JPSman: the Ubuntu help pages may be of interest, or you could experiment with different ALSA tarballs | 04:17 |
| JPSman | scguy318 - I have a Creative Labs Sound Blaster X-Fi sound card, there is no linux support for such a card in a 32-bit system | 04:17 |
| nomasteryoda | Dev_noob, i would just do ... mv /lib/firmware/oldfirmware-files /home/yourusername/.Trash | 04:17 |
| nomasteryoda | if you want | 04:17 |
| usser | sabaccatus, so how is it going? | 04:18 |
| nomasteryoda | or to a new filename to "backup" | 04:18 |
| JPSman | scguy318 - my question is isn't there a way to "ping ports" of my soundcard so that I can get some kind of reaction from my speakers? | 04:18 |
| Dev_noob | ty | 04:18 |
| Al00 | I have my Windows partitions mounted automatically when I boot Ubuntu 7.10. I have multiple users defined and I don't want any of the other users seeing the mounts on their desktop (or have access through /media/*). How can I achieve this? | 04:18 |
| arghh2d2 | JPSman, i doubt it | 04:18 |
| scguy318 | JPSman: not that I know of | 04:19 |
| dfwlinuxguy | A100..comment them out of /etc/fstab | 04:19 |
| sabaccatus | usser: Check this out: http://pastebin.ca/800146 | 04:19 |
| arghh2d2 | ping soundblaster | 04:19 |
| scguy318 | JPSman: if you're interesting in probing hardware sudo lshw may be of interest, but it may not be what you want | 04:19 |
| Vandalite | is there a way to set up the display so that the resolution is larger than the screen resolution, and the whole screen scrolls to follow the mouse? | 04:19 |
| nomasteryoda | Dev_noob, I also copy those to the kernel version I am using inside that /lib/firmware/ | 04:19 |
| nomasteryoda | or at the least sn -l | 04:19 |
| tarelerulz | What do you all do for wireless card. I have been using ndiswrapper and downloading windows drivers and none of them seem to work. What is my next option | 04:19 |
| Schalken | Vandalite: thats crazy talk | 04:19 |
| Al00 | dfwlinuxguy: That would stop my drives from mounting for everyone. I do want them to mount when I login and unmount when I logout | 04:19 |
| JPSman | arghh2d2, can't the kernel send signals on the port or address where the card is located? | 04:19 |
| scguy318 | tarelerulz: you have done the whole modprobe and confirmed that the driver is loaded, right? | 04:20 |
| Vandalite | I've seen windows do this, and i'm runing ubuntu on a ps3 with a tv display | 04:20 |
| Bruno_ | i need help with scp | 04:20 |
| nomasteryoda | tarelerulz, i spent $25 and got me a real Intel 2915abg minipci | 04:20 |
| julio3patas | have trevino come out with his repo yet? | 04:20 |
| AdeptSix | dfw: Okay so I move to /home/adeptsix what file contains my monitor's settings? | 04:20 |
| usser | sabaccatus, ok why did u do that last make | 04:20 |
| nomasteryoda | very much worth the extra cash ... broadcom chips stink | 04:20 |
| Vandalite | setting the device to the lowest rez sill cuts off pixels on all sides of the display, and i haven't found a way to crop it. | 04:20 |
| usser | sabaccatus, just do sudo make install | 04:20 |
| arghh2d2 | JPSman, yeah maybe, but "ping" is for net packaging | 04:20 |
| scguy318 | Schalken: that's not, actually | 04:20 |
| usser | sabaccatus, all your headers will be in place | 04:20 |
| dfwlinuxguy | adeptsix etc/X11/xorg.conf | 04:20 |
| scguy318 | Schalken: its the virtual mode or w/e feature of the X server | 04:20 |
| Schalken | Vandalite: workspaces (which windows doesnt have) was designed so that you have more room than your screen. | 04:20 |
| AdeptSix | ahhhh ... I knew that..... | 04:20 |
| === malnilion_ is now known as malnilion | ||
| dfwlinuxguy | A100 you could look at autofs | 04:20 |
| scguy318 | Vandalite: you have to add a Virtual res line or something for Modes section in xorg.ocnf | 04:21 |
| JPSman | arghh2d2 - heh sorry. new to this. Well what software could utilize my kernel to the best of its ability? | 04:21 |
| Schalken | scguy318: well you know more than i do :D | 04:21 |
| Al00 | dfwlinuxguy: I'll lookup autofs -- thanks | 04:21 |
| scguy318 | Vandalite: I know the Screens and Graphics thing generates messy xorg.conf files with that line | 04:21 |
| Vandalite | any way to run TWO xorg servers? one for the tv, and one for a remote control link? | 04:21 |
| arghh2d2 | JPSman, probly slackware would do it | 04:21 |
| nomasteryoda | JPSman, see what this command returns... aplay -l | 04:21 |
| tarelerulz | matter of if how good they are is debatable . It is what I have and I don't have the mony to replace it and it is laptop | 04:21 |
| nomasteryoda | if you were the one with audio issues | 04:21 |
| sabaccatus | usser: I'm kind of confused between "sudo make" and "sudo make install" which one do I do first? | 04:21 |
| Schalken | Vandalite: XGL runs two xorg servers, so its possible. | 04:21 |
| scguy318 | Vandalite: probably, though I'm not sure that another X server is needed for a remote control | 04:22 |
| sethk | Vandalite, if you have two screens | 04:22 |
| amason__ | sabaccatus: make | 04:22 |
| amason__ | sabaccatus: then make install | 04:22 |
| usser | sabaccatus, just do sudo make | 04:22 |
| JPSman | arghh2d2 - aw slackware, we can thank bob and the subgenius's for this one :OD | 04:22 |
| Vandalite | i'm thinking VNC | 04:22 |
| Bruno_ | help with scp? | 04:22 |
| nomasteryoda | sabaccatus, actually its just make as user... then sudo make install | 04:22 |
| dfwlinuxguy | you have to make b4 you make install | 04:22 |
| usser | sabaccatus, arrg sorry | 04:22 |
| scguy318 | sethk: you could run more than one X server on one screen | 04:22 |
| Vandalite | entirely vitual graphic environment | 04:22 |
| sethk | Vandalite, remember, though, that the "server" in X is the machine where apps are displayed | 04:22 |
| usser | sabaccatus, just do sudo make install thats it | 04:22 |
| scguy318 | sethk: just can't use at the same time | 04:22 |
| amason__ | Bruno_: state your problem | 04:22 |
| dfwlinuxguy | !ask | bruno_ | 04:22 |
| sethk | scguy318, that's true :) | 04:22 |
| amason__ | if some one knows they will answer | 04:22 |
| usser | sabaccatus, and do do anything else | 04:22 |
| Schalken | Vandalite: you can log into the same x server multiple times, as different users, locally and remotely. | 04:22 |
| JPSman | nomasteryoda - aplay: device_list:204: no soundcards found... | 04:22 |
| Vandalite | and get different desktops? | 04:22 |
| ubotu | bruno_: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :) | 04:22 |
| usser | sabaccatus, sudo make install - first it compiles stuff if its not already compiled and then installs | 04:23 |
| tarelerulz | I mean ndiswrapper is the only thing that has worked for me in the past | 04:23 |
| Schalken | Vandalite: one can be running KDE while the other runs GNOME, yes. | 04:23 |
| JPSman | nomasteryoda - I have a Creative Labs Soundblaster X-Fi soundcard...there is no linux support for 32-bit systems | 04:23 |
| nomasteryoda | JPSman, ok... so the sound card modules are not loading for your hardware... | 04:23 |
| Bruno_ | amason__: dfwlinuxguy: when i try to copy files from a remote server (another account on my own computer) i get permission denied, even after entering the correct passwords. I can do it through nautilus, but not thgorugh the terminal... | 04:23 |
| sethk | Vandalite, you can run different desktops on different workstations using the same server | 04:23 |
| sabaccatus | usser: ok.. here is my latest "sudo make install" http://pastebin.ca/800148 | 04:23 |
| sethk | Vandalite, the server is the X "client" | 04:23 |
| Schalken | Vandalite: and im pretty sure im getting mixed up between x servers and x display managers and x clients :/ | 04:23 |
| AdeptSix | dfw: Do I need both Section "Screen" and Section "Monitor" ... I notice "Screen" is set to default, which tells me it should be this laptop screen I am currently using. | 04:23 |
| amason__ | Bruno_: what command are you using | 04:23 |
| julio3patas | have trevino come out with his repo yet? | 04:24 |
| Bruno_ | amason__: scp | 04:24 |
| amason__ | paste it in here if it's not too long | 04:24 |
| nomasteryoda | JPSman, hmmm i'm betting you could make something work for it... but then again, I have seen a very few cards that don't work | 04:24 |
| sethk | Vandalite, XDMP is a subsystem that allows multiple desktops to exist on one central box | 04:24 |
| amason__ | Bruno_: including args | 04:24 |
| Bruno_ | amason__: args? | 04:24 |
| Vandalite | well all i have right now is a stock feisty fawn install, with one line added to the bootloader conf to set screen resolution | 04:24 |
| amason__ | Bruno_: the arguements you are passing to the command | 04:24 |
| sethk | Vandalite, sorry, XDMCP, | 04:24 |
| dfwlinuxguy | bruno_ if you don't have permission on the remote machine to do those things locally...you won't have permission to do them remotely...that help? | 04:24 |
| Vandalite | but for some reason it insists on not showing the whole screen on my SCREEN. the tops and sides are completely chopped off | 04:24 |
| JPSman | nomasteryoda - I just lucked out to have low to no support for THIS card :OP | 04:24 |
| ste-foy | Thx sethk | 04:25 |
| dfwlinuxguy | bruno_ check perms on server | 04:25 |
| AdeptSix | dfk: NM on last question ... I'm using the live cd's settings as an example. | 04:25 |
| Vandalite | i move the mouse up and it goes off the top of the screen. | 04:25 |
| ata4ix | i want to compile core with support of framebuffer but when i type the 'make menuconfig' in /usr/src/linux i have this errors http://paste.org.ru/?gf5koo | 04:25 |
| AdeptSix | dfw that is ... sometimes I guess I just need to talk myself through things before I ask questions! | 04:25 |
| JPSman | So Ubuntu doesn't offer software that would let my kernel unleash to my control and allow me to start sending signals down address to get some kind of reaction from them? | 04:25 |
| scguy318 | JPSman: there is a 64-bit Linux closed-source driver, as you said, but I have to wonder what they were thinking when they decided to build only for that architecture | 04:25 |
| Bruno_ | amason__: scp remotefilepath localuser@localip:localpath | 04:25 |
| dfwlinuxguy | adeptsix...yes you have to have "Screen" and "Monitor" | 04:26 |
| arghh2d2 | vandalite, how far off the top of the screen? | 04:26 |
| tarelerulz | The lame part is got ndiswrapper source and compiled it . When I did ethtool -i and It showed an older version of ndiswrapper . I don't know what is up with that how do I know if I am really the newer version of ndiswrapper | 04:26 |
| Vandalite | only a few pixels. half the thickness of the bars at the top and bottom | 04:26 |
| Vandalite | the cutoff on left and right is a bit worse | 04:26 |
| sethk | ata4ix, you need to install the ncurses development package | 04:26 |
| sethk | ata4ix, the curses.h file is missing, and it's part of that packag | 04:26 |
| ata4ix | щл | 04:26 |
| Poul|Raider | Im sitting in vim and haveing a few problems. used :vsp file to split and open 2 files. but cant find the command to tap to the other window | 04:26 |
| ata4ix | ok | 04:26 |
| amason__ | Bruno_: you need the remote username and host | 04:27 |
| dfwlinuxguy | Bruno_...you have it backwards scp source destination | 04:27 |
| sethk | ata4ix, ncurses is a newer curses, and curses is a library for displaying menus on a text based system (rather than gui based) | 04:27 |
| JPSman | scguy318 - they were thinking "screw JPSman" I dunno. Maybe the card is just too beefy for 'normal' systems. Is there any way to EMULATE 64-bit control? | 04:27 |
| scguy318 | JPSman: not that I know, though might be there, but that's quite beyond the reach of the average Ubuntu user :P | 04:27 |
| Bruno_ | amason__: sry aabout that, ctrl + V is closeing pidgin for somereason... | 04:27 |
| dfwlinuxguy | Bruno_...you have it backwards scp source destination | 04:28 |
| scguy318 | JPSman: maybe you could mess with /sys and /proc | 04:28 |
| sabaccatus | usser: I think we are getting somewhere... I can see files in /lib/modules/2.6.22-14-generic/include/net | 04:28 |
| JPSman | scguy318 - were do you hide your elites? | 04:28 |
| JPSman | "Take me to your leets" | 04:28 |
| Bruno_ | amason__: what would be the syntax? | 04:28 |
| dfwlinuxguy | scp username@server:/path /local/destination | 04:28 |
| ata4ix | sethk, 10x | 04:28 |
| dfwlinuxguy | scp username@server:/path /local/destination (-r for directories) | 04:28 |
| scguy318 | JPSman: no clue :P | 04:28 |
| usser | sabaccatus, good but ipw2200 cant :) | 04:28 |
| Bruno_ | dfwlinuxguy: to copy from remote to local? | 04:28 |
| ata4ix | ap-get install curses-devel? | 04:28 |
| amason__ | Bruno_: have a look at the man pages. It has some examples for remote transfer in it. | 04:28 |
| dfwlinuxguy | scp...yes | 04:28 |
| scguy318 | JPSman: emulate? not at all | 04:28 |
| sabaccatus | usser: yeah.. I get a new error compiling ipw2200 now.. | 04:29 |
| usser | sabaccatus, so do cd /lib/modules/2.blbal/include | 04:29 |
| dfwlinuxguy | Bruno_...man scp | 04:29 |
| amason__ | Bruno_: you can type man scp and it will give you the scp manual | 04:29 |
| Bruno_ | amason__: the problem is that it does not accept my passwords | 04:29 |
| usser | sabaccatus, then do sudo ln -s net/* . | 04:29 |
| scguy318 | JPSman: its not about beefy or w/e, its that there's no ALSA module for it | 04:29 |
| amason__ | Bruno_: no, thast not your problem | 04:29 |
| sabaccatus | usser: I see the net directory | 04:29 |

| amason__ | Bruno_: you don't need the second username /host | 04:31 |
| Bruno_ | amason__: and when it promts for password it says permission denied | 04:31 |
| dfwlinuxguy | adeptsix...you need either sudo...or enable the root user sudo passwd root | 04:31 |
| Bruno_ | amason__: ok | 04:31 |
| arghh2d2 | what does gdm kdm and xdm offer that startx doesnt? | 04:31 |

| dfwlinuxguy | now | 04:33 |
| AdeptSix | I think I do. | 04:33 |
| Bruno_ | dfwlinuxguy: ok | 04:33 |
| sabaccatus | usser: ok done.. now just do a "sudo make" in the ipw2200 directory? | 04:33 |
| amason__ | Bruno_: you can transfer from a remote machine to your machine, or your machine to a remote machine. Not a remote machine to remote machine....well you can but it's not as easy | 04:33 |
| AdeptSix | I'm shocked that it was that easy ... I'm honestly blushing! | 04:33 |
| AdeptSix | Hopefully it actually worked though. | 04:33 |

| JPSman | how do I "down grade" from 7.1 to 7.04 ? | 04:35 |
| XmaXer | ok, thans | 04:35 |
| scguy318 | !downgrade | JPSman | 04:35 |
| ubotu | JPSman: Attempting to downgrade to an older Ubuntu version is explicitly not supported, and may break your system. | 04:35 |
| scguy318 | JPSman: a clean install will do | 04:35 |
| usser | sabaccatus, hm maybe there configure file there | 04:35 |
| usser | sabaccatus, try ./configure | 04:36 |
| amason__ | XmaXer: you need to give them a different shell | 04:36 |
| sabaccatus | usser: there's config file | 04:36 |
| arghh2d2 | does anyone know how i'd go about bypassing gdm on boot? | 04:36 |
| Vandalite | ok, so does anyone know how to set up a VNC server to run as a second graphic console? | 04:36 |
| dfwlinuxguy | /bin/rbash | 04:36 |
| sabaccatus | usser: but when I try it I get: "No 'cfg' found in /sys/bus/pci/drivers/ipw2200." | 04:36 |
| amason__ | XmaXer: there are restrictive shells but i can't remember the name | 04:36 |
| scguy318 | JPSman: clean install will do the trick, but an actual way to do something like uninstall Windows Vista to go back to XP does not really exist in Ubuntu | 04:36 |
| Shadow147 | well i have a suggestion | 04:36 |
| dfwlinuxguy | /bin/rbash | 04:36 |
| usser | sabaccatus, sigh | 04:36 |
| sc0tch | How does Nautilus search work? I never seems to find anything when I search for a known file. I can be in my home directory, see a file in it, clock the search button, put in its name, and it can't even find that...? | 04:37 |
| sethk | amason__, used to be rsh, ages ago, but then rsh was stolen to be remote shell | 04:37 |
| amason__ | dfwlinuxguy: was that the restricted shell ? | 04:37 |
| usser | sabaccatus, hm do u have ipw2200 card are u sure? | 04:37 |
| dfwlinuxguy | yes | 04:37 |
| amason__ | cool | 04:37 |
| sethk | zsh can be started in restricted mode | 04:37 |
| sabaccatus | usser: 100% positive | 04:37 |
| dfwlinuxguy | link /bin/bash to /bin/rbash | 04:37 |
| dfwlinuxguy | add it to /etc/shells | 04:37 |
| weltschmerz | my laptop is configured, from what i can tell, identically to my desktop. yet pulseaudio won't start on the laptop, using the init script. yet it will run if executed directly. | 04:37 |
| Shadow147 | if you get a open too many files child process error just restart Linux and it fixes the problem | 04:37 |
| dfwlinuxguy | set it in /etc/passwd | 04:38 |
| Lustblader | is there anyway to open parts of a split archive alone???? | 04:38 |
| sethk | dfwlinuxguy, might want to copy regular bash somewhere first :) | 04:38 |
| dfwlinuxguy | no..just do a ln -s /bin/bash /bin/rbash | 04:38 |
| sethk | dfwlinuxguy, if you change it in /etc/passwd, and put it in /etc/shells, there's no need for a link | 04:38 |
| sabaccatus | usser: can you join me in #usserrocks for a sec? | 04:38 |
| amason__ | dfwlinuxguy: i wouldn' replace the symlink | 04:38 |
| amason__ | i would just change it in /etc/passwd | 04:38 |
| Lustblader | any ideas ppl? | 04:38 |
| sethk | amason__, I see what he's saying, and I think he's right | 04:38 |
| dfwlinuxguy | yes..sorry it already exists | 04:39 |
| scguy318 | sc0tch: no idea, I never bothered with it, the deskbar search thing may be more in line with what you want | 04:39 |
| sethk | dfwlinuxguy, doesn't on older ubuntu's | 04:39 |

| Shadow147 | not by the apt-get or synaptic | 04:40 |
| dfwlinuxguy | Shadow147..not average if you compiled a program | 04:40 |
| sethk | j1solutions, big deal, I'm running 2,000,000 linux machines ... well, actually, I'm running 4, but I don't like other people running more than I do :) | 04:40 |

| j1solutions | ok sethk : ) | 04:40 |
| XmaXer | thanks | 04:40 |

| j1solutions | ok dfw linux guy. i lived in dallas last year | 04:43 |
| dfwlinuxguy | j1solutions and??!!! | 04:43 |

| Cameron_Calver | ? | 04:44 |
| Shadow147 | well is there any easy solution to convert and ogm into avi | 04:44 |
| dfwlinuxguy | Cameron_Calver...ask again | 04:44 |
| liufeng | Have anyone used data projectors with a laptop run Ubuntu? | 04:44 |
| scguy318 | Cameron_Calver: build your own ffmpeg, the Ubuntu ffmpeg doesn't seem to have some codecs for 3gp | 04:44 |
| scguy318 | Cameron_Calver: or you can run some Windows converters on Wine | 04:45 |
| Cameron_Calver | how do i build my own | 04:45 |
| Cameron_Calver | id like to be able to do it in linux but do u no of a free app that runs in wine? | 04:45 |
| Vandalite | the sad part is that if i switch video mode to '0' i can see my whole console, but the graphic environment becomes a big black screen, including the ubunto loading and unloading screens. | 04:45 |
| Dr_willis | I saw a 'build ffmpeg from cvs' tutorial the other day. | 04:45 |
| Shadow147 | I have found that using sudo make clean install helps | 04:45 |
| scguy318 | Cameron_Calver: not really, google would know more | 04:45 |
| Shadow147 | when compiling from source | 04:45 |
| Cameron_Calver | so u cant help me without using a wine app? | 04:46 |
| j1solutions | anyone know how to troubleshoot slow booting in 7.10 on a laptop | 04:46 |
| dfwlinuxguy | j1solutions...I'm having that trouble too | 04:46 |
| Cameron_Calver | ? | 04:46 |
| Dr_willis | Cameron_Calver, im not even sure what youa re trying to do. | 04:46 |
| dfwlinuxguy | j1solutions...my wife won't stop complaining | 04:46 |
| scguy318 | Cmaeron_Calver: we could, but I'm not sure if you'd like it | 04:46 |
| sethk | Shadow147, it's a big better to do only the "install" part under sudo. That creates the files that are not installed as a normal user. Thus you don't need to do sudo for make clean | 04:46 |
| ata4ix | can i check the framebuffer enabled or not in my ubuntu? | 04:46 |
| dfwlinuxguy | j1solutions..haven't had time to debug | 04:46 |
| Cameron_Calver | im trying to convert a .avi to .3gp | 04:46 |
| Shadow147 | well most converters require alot of commands to decode and reencode a video file | 04:47 |
| sethk | Shadow147, so make clean all then sudo make install | 04:47 |
| jmworx | Any tip on playing media using the mmsh protocol? | 04:47 |
| j1solutions | same here dfw | 04:47 |
| scguy318 | Dr_willis: he/she is trying to transcode a video to 3gp, 3gp audio codec doesn't seem to be in ffmpeg | 04:47 |

| scguy318 | Dr_willis: at least in the Ubuntu provided ffmpeg | 04:47 |
| Shadow147 | hmm I will try that next time | 04:47 |
| scguy318 | Dr_willis: I know ffmpeg can support, but have to build with support | 04:47 |
| dfwlinuxguy | j1solutions..not sure why it's taking so long to boot...I need to fix it so I can stop hearing about it | 04:47 |
| jmworx | I've tried totel, xine, mplayer and vlc and none of them will play mmsh on my gusty box | 04:47 |
| Cameron_Calver | i scguy318 wanna go in a private room and build ffmpeg | 04:47 |
| sethk | Shadow147, what you said isn't wrong, but what I said is slightly more correct from a security perspective. | 04:47 |
| dfwlinuxguy | j1solutions.."this computer is SO Slow" | 04:48 |
| sethk | Shadow147, the practical difference may well be nil | 04:48 |
| Dr_willis | scguy318, yep. and avidemux uses ffmpeg i think.. actually I think it can use other tools also... so avidemux may work for him | 04:48 |
| j1solutions | lots of drive activity, dfw mine is complaining riight now | 04:48 |
| dfwlinuxguy | j1solutions.."no dear, it's just slow to boot...works fine once it's up" | 04:48 |

| Cpudan80 | Ok I think I found my real problem | 04:48 |
| Shadow147 | I believe if you download the ffmpeg RPM then use alien that migh make it easier | 04:48 |
| scguy318 | Dr_willis: you know more than I do :) | 04:48 |
| Cameron_Calver | where do i get the ffmpeg rpm? | 04:48 |

| Cameron_Calver | kk | 04:49 |
| dfwlinuxguy | j1solutions.if you want to email me...I'll look at it and tell you if I find anything that might help | 04:49 |
| Cameron_Calver | scuguy 318 iv tryed avidemux but it wont let me convert it doesnt have plug | 04:49 |
| j1solutions | that sounds good dfw, thanks | 04:50 |
| Shadow147 | I find that converting an RPM into a DEB helps with installation but if it doesn't work just compile it from source | 04:50 |
| macksting | Having a little trouble figuring out chown. (Fifth day using Linux.) What's the syntax? | 04:50 |
| ampex | If I change my mdadm configuration, do I need to rebuild my initrd? Does it use my mdadm.conf file? | 04:50 |

| scguy318 | Cameron_Calver: ehh...see !make and find a guide, I'm just about ready to flat out sleep, sorry | 04:50 |
| Scunizi | j1solutions, dfwlinuxguy have you guys tried the "irqpoll" solution to slow boot that was used in Feisty? you add "irqpoll" to the end of the kernel line in grub. | 04:50 |
| j1solutions | mack chown :username | 04:50 |
| scguy318 | Cameron_Calver: you may also restate your question for others here to possibly answer | 04:50 |
| j1solutions | that will change the user and group to 'username' | 04:51 |
| Cameron_Calver | yeah well iv been trying to fix this for AAGEES and no one seems no know or want to bother | 04:51 |
| macksting | And does it work on directories, or just files? | 04:51 |
| Dr_willis | Cameron_Calver, ubuntu dosent use rpm's - and i dont know of any ffmpeg debian packages for ubuntu that have all the extras compiled in. I compiled ffmpeg the otehr day with all the extra features. It wasent too hard. i just had to install a boat load of extra packages. | 04:51 |

| dfwlinuxguy | scunizi...no I haven't...I installed 7.10 and all the sudden it takes forever to boot...no prob 7.04 | 04:51 |
| Cameron_Calver | dr willis do u have the time to help me do the same? | 04:51 |
| zetheroo | for some reason why mic just stopped working..... | 04:51 |

| hiredgoon | jscinoz: mondoarchive? | 04:52 |
| zetheroo | anyone? | 04:52 |
| jscinoz | HIredgood, thanks i'll go look it up | 04:52 |
| macksting | Busy day. | 04:52 |
| Shadow147 | it has a source code | 04:52 |
| rust | hnnnmmm | 04:52 |
| hiredgoon | not sure if it does rsync etc but it does do nfs | 04:52 |
| zetheroo | mic not working on a T60 Thinkpad.... anyone? | 04:52 |
| Scunizi | jscinoz, partimage might work for you but I'm not sure about incremental changes. dd would work but that's tricky and I don't know how to use it. | 04:52 |
| jscinoz | Hiredgoon, is mondoarcvhie the same as the package "mondo"? | 04:52 |
| hiredgoon | yes | 04:52 |
| Cameron_Calver | dr willis? | 04:53 |
| rust | a21p thinkpad | 04:53 |
| Lustblader | is there anyway to open parts of a split archive alone???? | 04:53 |
| jscinoz | Scunzi, really? i thought DD was complete images only. | 04:53 |
| Dr_willis | Cameron_Calver, http://tovid.wikia.com/wiki/Installing_svn_ffmpeg_on_a_Debian_based_distro | 04:53 |
| Scunizi | dfwlinuxguy, I hope it does! | 04:53 |
| j1solutions | yes it can change directory ownership | 04:53 |
| j1solutions | chown username ./directory | 04:53 |
| macksting | OH GOD. I forgot sudo. | 04:53 |
| dfwlinuxguy | scunizi...thanks for the tip | 04:53 |
| Scunizi | jscinoz, I was taking a stab at it... I'm not really sure on incremental. | 04:54 |
| Dr_willis | Cameron_Calver, you dont need to 'edit the sources' like tht tutorial says.. but you do need to install quite a few exttra packages. for it to compile properly | 04:54 |
| Scunizi | dfwlinuxguy, np | 04:54 |
| rust | I sudo forgot | 04:54 |
| Cameron_Calver | ok then im going it niow | 04:54 |
| jscinoz | Scunizi, thanks anyways, i tried dd before and its images are perfect, but i really need an incremental function >_< | 04:54 |
| * macksting totally forgot sudo. Done! Thanks! | 04:54 | |
| Shadow147 | and another tip make sure when adding Repos to the /etc/apt/sources that the site is still functional | 04:54 |
| Lustblader | wow | 04:54 |
| dfwlinuxguy | jscinoz...rsync is great for incremental copies | 04:54 |
| Lustblader | no1 thinks of that | 04:54 |
| Shadow147 | sources.list* | 04:55 |
| Shadow147 | I have made many mistakes with linux | 04:55 |
| dfwlinuxguy | jscinoz...you can even script it to have incremental backups | 04:55 |
| jscinoz | rsync, yeah but the problem is i need it to make the incremental changes in disk images, not the files themselves | 04:55 |

| Dr_willis | ata4ix, you can edit the default kernel options to change the res' or use the fbset command to change them on the fly. | 04:56 |

| dfwlinuxguy | m13..using wpa? | 05:25 |
| m13 | dwflinuxguy , wep | 05:25 |
| amason__ | zika2000: haven't heard of that one. Link ? | 05:25 |
| dfwlinuxguy | can you use the gnome-network-manager applet for config? | 05:26 |
| it-linux | When Gutsy installations detecting hardware untill 90% progress, it become hang? Why? | 05:26 |
| zika2000 | http://www.oroborus.org/ | 05:26 |
| m13 | dwflinuxguy, all is auto config | 05:26 |
| zloog | Hi, anyone know how to set the include path for kdevelop? | 05:26 |
| bruenig | should be /usr/include | 05:26 |
| m13 | dwflinuxguy, working ok, but from time to time it drops conection | 05:26 |
| it-linux | scguy318, thank you | 05:26 |
| dfwlinuxguy | m13..me too....crappy drivers | 05:27 |
| zika2000 | it's light windows manager it's actually in repository | 05:27 |
| m13 | dwflinuxguy, ubuntu default wlan drivers | 05:27 |
| fiXXXerMet | dfwlinuxguy: /etc/init.d/udev restart didn't do it | 05:27 |
| dfwlinuxguy | m13..most hardware manufacturers don't release hardware specs so that a proper driver can be written | 05:27 |
| Shadow147 | is there a way to access a cell phones memory in linux | 05:27 |
| m13 | dwflinuxguy, i know | 05:28 |
| scguy318 | Shoadow147: depends on the phone | 05:28 |
| dfwlinuxguy | m13..what chipset? | 05:28 |
| m13 | dwflinuxguy, but , how can i chat here and not be able to surf ? | 05:28 |
| scguy318 | Shoadow147: if you plug it in and it's treated like a generic USB storage device, great | 05:28 |
| scguy318 | Shoadow147: if not you may have to use some sort of transfer program | 05:28 |
| Shadow147 | using bluetooth | 05:28 |
| dfwlinuxguy | m13..that makes no sense | 05:28 |
| infinitycircuit | Shadow147, you can also use bluetooth | 05:28 |
| scott__ | hi everyone | 05:28 |
| scott__ | im a newb | 05:28 |
| scguy318 | scott___: hello | 05:29 |
| m13 | dwflinuxguy, yes lol | 05:29 |
| scguy318 | Shadow147: ah, thats probably possible | 05:29 |
| infinitycircuit | Shadow147, oh i see that you already mentioned that. check out linux-mobile for some tutorials on connecting phones with linux | 05:29 |
| m13 | dwflinuxguy, ralink i think | 05:29 |
| it-linux | scott__ : hai too | 05:29 |
| dfwlinuxguy | m13..if you can't even ping the gateway...then you shouldn't be able to chat here...unless you have a firewall blocking some traffic | 05:29 |
| Dr_willis | ata4ix, as far as i know framebuffer is allready enabled in the ubuntu kernel. Or course framebuffer can be a bit different for different video cards. | 05:29 |
| ata4ix | Dr_willis, i try to recompile my kernel for enabling the framebuffer vesa support - CONFIG_VESA_FB=y... | 05:29 |
| ata4ix | i do wrong? | 05:29 |
| fiXXXerMet | Does 7.10 need a special driver to support usb/flash drives? | 05:29 |
| scguy318 | fiXXXerMet: no | 05:29 |
| Dr_willis | ata4ix, you proberly need to research framebuffer support a little more. I do NOT think recompiling the kernel is needed | 05:29 |
| sethk | fiXXXerMet, no | 05:29 |
| fiXXXerMet | Knew you'd say that. :( | 05:30 |
| Shadow147 | ok thanks | 05:30 |
| ata4ix | yes they are enable but not for vesa | 05:30 |
| it-linux | scguy318: On Gutsy installation, do we need internet connections? | 05:30 |
| scguy318 | it-linux: no | 05:30 |
| m13 | dwflinuxguy, just regular router fw | 05:30 |
| zika2000 | amason_ did you get the link? | 05:30 |
| ata4ix | CONFIG_VESA_FB= is not typed in /boot/config | 05:30 |
| Shadow147 | because so when I want to work on my phone I don't need to get into my Windows XP install | 05:30 |
| ata4ix | hm | 05:30 |
| infinitycircuit | ata4ix, check out the gentoo page for information on enabling framebuffer in the kernel config | 05:30 |
| it-linux | scguy318: Why it become hang when detecting hardware in 90%? Is it normal? | 05:31 |
| ata4ix | gentoo? | 05:31 |
| dfwlinuxguy | m13..you might try setting a static IP and see if that helps | 05:31 |
| infinitycircuit | ata4ix, depending on your chipset you might need to enable vesa-fb or vesafb-tng | 05:31 |
| ata4ix | chipset of waht? | 05:31 |
| infinitycircuit | ata4ix, yes their documentation on enabling framebuffer suppot is very good. the chipset of your graphics card | 05:31 |
| m13 | dwflinuxguy , i need to have it auto cause i change network often :/ | 05:31 |
| dfwlinuxguy | m13.it's not a dns issue is it? | 05:31 |
| ata4ix | radeon ati x1600 pci-e | 05:31 |
| tag- | man this is fun | 05:31 |
| dfwlinuxguy | m13...can you ping by IP? | 05:31 |
| m13 | dwflinuxguy , no | 05:32 |
| infinitycircuit | ata4ix, iirc that means you should use vesafb-tng but you should check up on that | 05:32 |
| dfwlinuxguy | m13...yahoo = 216.109.112.135 | 05:32 |
| ata4ix | what the iirc? | 05:32 |
| infinitycircuit | ata4ix, if i remember correctly. sorry | 05:32 |
| blankboy | hello, how do downgrade libdatrie0 to 0.1.1-4 (gutsy) with out uninstalling half my packages ? | 05:32 |
| ata4ix | oh | 05:32 |
| m13 | dwflinuxguy , it passed :S | 05:32 |
| dfwlinuxguy | m13...then you have a dns issue | 05:33 |
| danbhfive | m13: try the dig command | 05:33 |
| dfwlinuxguy | m13....dns servers are set in /etc/resolv.conf | 05:33 |
| infinitycircuit | ata4ix, when you say CONFIG_VESA_FB is not typed in the kernel, do you mean that gcc complains that you need to have a typed int in the header file when you try to compile, or do you mean that searching the config file for that generates no results? | 05:33 |
| ata4ix | no results in file | 05:33 |
| Dr_willis | why would one want to use the vesa framebuffer when you could use the ati framebuffer module? | 05:34 |
| ata4ix | but | 05:34 |
| ata4ix | i found CONFIG_FB_VESA=m | 05:34 |
| dfwlinuxguy | m13....does /etc/resolv.conf have the IP address of your router listed?...do you know the IP address of your dns servers? | 05:34 |
| ata4ix | i found CONFIG_FB_VGA16=m | 05:34 |
| ata4ix | what does it mean? | 05:34 |
| infinitycircuit | ata4ix, that should be all you need | 05:34 |
| ata4ix | :( | 05:34 |
| tyler_3 | anyone know alot about httpd?? looking to redirect subdir.domain.com to a different directory using apache2 | 05:34 |
| infinitycircuit | ata4ix, exactly what is the problem. does the splash screen not work? | 05:34 |
| ata4ix | and how now to set resoultion of console to change it 1024x768/ | 05:34 |
| ata4ix | ? | 05:34 |
| m13 | dwflinuxguy , yes, fixing it, it was router IP as NS | 05:34 |
| infinitycircuit | ata4ix, boot with the cheat code vga=791 | 05:35 |
| m13 | i restart network now to see what happens | 05:35 |
| ata4ix | its not working | 05:35 |
| dfwlinuxguy | m13....shouldn't have to restart networking | 05:35 |
| dfwlinuxguy | m13....should just work | 05:35 |
| zetheroo | Failed to construct test pipeline for 'gconfaudiosrc ! ............whats this? | 05:35 |
| ata4ix | i try to type vga=791 but grub loader is answer me so now resolutiomn found | 05:35 |
| m13 | dwflinuxguy , it passed :) | 05:35 |
| blankboy | sadly apt-get does not offer a downgrade so synaptic is doing "remove" "install libdatrie0=0.1.1-4" | 05:35 |
| dfwlinuxguy | YEAH!!! | 05:35 |
| dfwlinuxguy | you're all set | 05:35 |
| virtuososteve | hey | 05:36 |
| m13 | many tnx dwflinuxguy :) | 05:36 |
| dfwlinuxguy | very welcome | 05:36 |
| ata4ix | not resolution found i mean | 05:36 |
| virtuososteve | is MEPIS faster than ubuntu? | 05:36 |
| bruenig | virtuososteve, I hear that they have some lightweight version that is very fast | 05:36 |
| ata4ix | infinitycircuit, ill try now again | 05:36 |
| blankboy | and removing that package is stoped by the fact you need that package | 05:36 |
| dfwlinuxguy | gnite all | 05:36 |
| virtuososteve | what about suse? | 05:36 |
| Dr_willis | virtuososteve, proberly not. for identical software. | 05:37 |
| bruenig | virtuososteve, suse would be about the same | 05:37 |
| infinitycircuit | ata4ix, you can try vga=773 to lower the number of colors | 05:37 |
| Dr_willis | virtuososteve, linux is so tweakable/changeable.. anythhing like that can be very much a judgement call. ;) | 05:37 |
| ata4ix | now the grub string is: kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.22-14-generic root=UUID=d99f6564-d3aa-4355-b56d-7419648ca07d ro vga=5 | 05:37 |
| virtuososteve | so both of you say that suse and ubuntu are pretty much the same? | 05:37 |
| blankboy | is the a way to edit apt-get database by hand ? | 05:37 |
| bruenig | virtuososteve, pretty much | 05:37 |
| infinitycircuit | ata4ix, vga=5 will not work. try vga=773 if vga=791 fails for you | 05:38 |
| Dr_willis | ata4ix, you can try vga=ask also., and it 'should' print out a menu of what modes are avilable and you can try them all. | 05:38 |
| infinitycircuit | ata4ix, also, is there any reason you turned off splash and quiet as boot options | 05:38 |
| asD12REQWD | hello, I would like to burn a DVD, I have a master DVD created by Sony DVD Architech, I could also copy the DVD. It is not encrypted, not regioned. How should I go about making copies of it. (the content is my own creation) | 05:38 |
| ata4ix | vga=5 is working on my system :)) | 05:38 |
| scguy318 | infinitycircuit: probably to see the verbose messages | 05:38 |
| infinitycircuit | ata4ix, ok that's good then | 05:38 |
| bruenig | asD12REQWD, use dd | 05:38 |
| virtuososteve | how should i choose a linux distro then? | 05:38 |
| ata4ix | infinitycircuit, yes i disable this | 05:38 |
| ata4ix | i try to vga=ask | 05:38 |
| Dr_willis | virtuososteve, define your needs. research and find a disrto that best suits your needs. | 05:39 |
| bruenig | virtuososteve, distros serve three main purposes, package management, configuration schemes, and init | 05:39 |
| ata4ix | and have only 5 ress after | 05:39 |
| ata4ix | 1 2 3 4 5 | 05:39 |
| virtuososteve | ive only tried fedora and ubuntu and i didn't like fedora at all | 05:39 |
| virtuososteve | which distro has the most powerful gnome? | 05:39 |
| bruenig | virtuososteve, outside of those three, the only real significant difference is release cycle which to me would fall under package management but maybe not | 05:40 |
| it-linux | scguy318 : can you help me? | 05:40 |
| Dr_willis | virtuososteve, in any case it pays big time to learn the core/linux fundamentals - that way you KNOW linux. :) not just a specific distro and its quirks. | 05:40 |
| bruenig | virtuososteve, gnome is gnome is gnome | 05:40 |
| scguy318 | it-linux: sure | 05:40 |
| zetheroo | my mic is not working in Ubuntu | 05:40 |
| alimoe | hi all | 05:40 |
| ata4ix | Dr_willis, when i typed vga=ask i have only 5 modes all for 80x* | 05:40 |
| virtuososteve | k | 05:40 |
| Dr_willis | ata4ix, so? :) | 05:40 |
| alimoe | how do i become root in ubuntu? | 05:40 |
| Dr_willis | ata4ix, i dont use framebuffer so cant help ya much. | 05:40 |
| ata4ix | Dr_willis, :( | 05:40 |
| virtuososteve | alimoe its sudo -i | 05:40 |
| scguy318 | alimoe: sudo -i | 05:40 |
| Dr_willis | !sudo | alimoe | 05:40 |
| ubotu | alimoe: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information. | 05:40 |
| scguy318 | it-linux: what's your problem? | 05:41 |
| virtuososteve | what distro is good in the multimedia section? | 05:41 |
| bruenig | virtuososteve, they are all the same | 05:41 |
| alimoe | i downloaded a package and it wants to be root a run a command, divx 6 | 05:41 |
| ata4ix | infinitycircuit: if i disables splash and quiet as boot options this is bad for vga=791? | 05:41 |
| zetheroo | my mic is not working | 05:41 |
| ata4ix | or not actual? | 05:42 |
| zetheroo | please help | 05:42 |
| bruenig | virtuososteve, like I said, package management, configuration, and init, those are how distros really differ | 05:42 |
| virtuososteve | init? | 05:42 |
| alimoe | i downloaded a package and it wants me to be a root to run a command, divx 6 | 05:42 |
| bruenig | virtuososteve, a multimedia package is the same on ubuntu as it is on any other distro | 05:42 |
| infinitycircuit | ata4ix, i don't believe so but i'm not sure. i have never used vga bootcodes on ubuntu | 05:42 |
| alimoe | ./install.sh | 05:42 |
| virtuososteve | what is init though? | 05:42 |
| bruenig | virtuososteve, how the OS boots | 05:42 |
| harushimo | man this was quick | 05:42 |
| bruenig | virtuososteve, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Init | 05:42 |
| virtuososteve | hehe | 05:43 |
| harushimo | I didn't expect to just get in the channel | 05:43 |
| harushimo | how do you extract a bin file | 05:43 |
| zetheroo | please help | 05:43 |
| zetheroo | my mic is not workin | 05:43 |
| harushimo | I means what the command, I never done it before | 05:43 |
| sethk | harushimo, most likely ./whatever.bin | 05:43 |
| virtuososteve | how do i remove the logging splash? | 05:43 |
| scguy318 | harushimo: you don't, you run it, unless its some format that I'm not aware of? | 05:43 |
| virtuososteve | on 7.10? | 05:43 |
| sethk | harushimo, you cannot tell in UNIX what the file is based on the extension | 05:43 |
| ata4ix | thats horrable | 05:43 |
| sethk | harushimo, any file can be of any type | 05:43 |
| scguy318 | harushimo: thats what the file command is for | 05:43 |
| it-linux | scguy318: Why it become hang when detecting hardware in 90%? Is it normal? | 05:43 |
| bruenig | virtuososteve, sed -e 's/splash//g' 's/quiet//g' -i /boot/grub/menu.lst | 05:44 |
| scguy318 | it-linux: no, have you looked in syslog? | 05:44 |
| Shadow147 | how do I set it up using bluetooth | 05:44 |
| harushimo | ok | 05:44 |
| bruenig | virtuososteve, sed -e 's/splash//g' -e 's/quiet//g' -i /boot/grub/menu.lst | 05:44 |
| sethk | scguy318, the nvidia driver (from their web site) is a self-extracting archive with a .bin extension. | 05:44 |
| harushimo | will try it | 05:44 |
| Shadow147 | my phone on linux using blutooth | 05:44 |
| scguy318 | sethk: yeah | 05:44 |
| sethk | scguy318, but "use the file command" is the right answer, instead of my guesswork :) | 05:45 |
| harushimo | I need to be as sudo right? to extract the bin | 05:45 |
| sethk | harushimo, no | 05:45 |
| sethk | harushimo, extract it into a subdirectory of your home directory as a normal user | 05:45 |
| it-linux | scguy318: OK, I'll try it again, I can't see it, coz I have to restart PC | 05:45 |
| virtuososteve | wat do i do after sed -e? | 05:45 |
| melz | hi, I have gutsy, using firfox, there is no sound in flash ojbects eg. youtube and other flash things, anyone know how to fix?? | 05:45 |
| Shadow147 | harushimo type chmod a+x name.bin | 05:46 |
| bruenig | virtuososteve, just copy and paste that second thing I gave you all at once | 05:46 |
| Shadow147 | then type ./name.bin | 05:46 |
| virtuososteve | k | 05:46 |
| harushimo | okay | 05:47 |
| harushimo | that sound right | 05:47 |
| harushimo | what is a+x for | 05:47 |
| Shadow147 | bins in linux are usually exeucutables | 05:47 |
| virtuososteve | what is a good fast internet program? | 05:47 |
| it-linux | scguy318: thank you and talk to you later, Ok? | 05:47 |
| bruenig | a+x is an argument which says make the file executable for all users | 05:47 |
| scguy318 | it-linux: ok, cya then | 05:47 |
| bruenig | the a is technically redundant but whatever | 05:47 |
| bruenig | virtuososteve, what? | 05:48 |
| Shadow147 | but it works | 05:48 |
| bruenig | ugo+x works too | 05:48 |
| sethk | works both with and without the a. I like being explicit when telling someone new to the command. | 05:48 |
| virtuososteve | what is a good fast internet program, firefox, swiftfox, etc | 05:48 |
| ata4ix | hot to change from CONFIG_FB_VESA=m to *=y? | 05:49 |
| dfwlinuxguy | lynx | 05:49 |
| Dr_willis | virtuososteve, 'internet program' is a big vague.. about any of the main stream browsers these days will do the job. | 05:49 |
| sethk | virtuososteve, the program most like firefox is ..... firefox | 05:49 |
| bruenig | virtuososteve, ok the internet is not just the www (see irc). Call those browsers. | 05:49 |
| Shadow147 | I need to get linux to reconize my phone with a bluetooth dongle I have plugged in | 05:49 |
| virtuososteve | k | 05:50 |
| virtuososteve | thanks for the help cya | 05:50 |
| Dr_willis | ata4ix, if the default was CONFIG_FB_VESA, then the module should of been made. You then load the module. normally the frabebuffer stuff is not built into the kenrnel. | 05:50 |
| dfwlinuxguy | opera has a good rep for being a swift/lean browser | 05:50 |
| Dr_willis | oops if the default was CONFIG_FB_VESA=m i mean. :) that means make a module. | 05:50 |
| dfwlinuxguy | epiphany is pretty fast too | 05:51 |
| dfwlinuxguy | konq for kde users | 05:51 |
| sn00zer | are there any open office guru's here? | 05:51 |
| melz | hi, I have gutsy, using firfox, there is no sound in flash ojbects eg. youtube and other flash things, anyone know how to fix?? | 05:51 |
| ata4ix | eh | 05:52 |
| Shadow147 | melz what version of java are you using?? | 05:52 |
| harushimo | I am offically completely Ubuntu linux now | 05:53 |
| harushimo | question is there a difference from Ubuntu you get a on dell machine vs downloading it from a mirror | 05:53 |
| Shadow147 | well I keep Windows around just in case I need it | 05:53 |
| melz | Shadow147, java? does that matter? um sorry im a noob, how do i find out | 05:53 |
| melz | Shadow147, i installed ubuntu-restricted-something just yesterday | 05:54 |
| bazhang | harushimo: apparently not | 05:54 |
| harushimo | bazhang: oh really | 05:54 |
| bazhang | harushimo: you have a dell? | 05:54 |
| hottium | melz: what version of ubuntu u are using? | 05:54 |
| melz | hottium, 7.10 | 05:54 |
| Shadow147 | melz flash type sudo apt-get install mozilla-flash | 05:54 |
| hottium | melz: amd64 or i386? | 05:55 |
| harushimo | bazhang: I was curious | 05:55 |
| melz | ok thanks Shadow147 i try that | 05:55 |
| melz | hottium, i386 | 05:55 |
| Shadow147 | if I rember correctly | 05:55 |
| bazhang | harushimo: the only diff might be the drivers restricted stuff being enabled out of the box | 05:55 |
| usser | Shadow147, or is it flash-nonfree | 05:55 |
| jmworx | mmsh playback anyone? none of xine, totem, mplayer or vlc works for me :-( | 05:55 |
| dfwlinuxguy | flashplugin-nonfree is the best option | 05:55 |
| Shadow147 | that will work to | 05:55 |
| melz | hrrmmm which should i use lol 8-} | 05:55 |
| dfwlinuxguy | flashplugin-nonfree is the best option | 05:55 |
| usser | melz, flashplugin-nonfree | 05:56 |
| melz | ok thanks | 05:56 |
| jimjam | Do I need WINE to run Shockwave? | 05:56 |
| dfwlinuxguy | yes | 05:56 |
| Shadow147 | yea theres no Linux version far as I know | 05:56 |
| melz | flashplugin-nonfree is already the newest version. | 05:56 |
| Shadow147 | melz try to reload the page | 05:57 |
| Shadow147 | make sure your sound system is on and fuctioning | 05:57 |
| melz | yeah Shadow147, i have, tried it on different sites etc, reloading, rebooting, | 05:57 |
| Shadow147 | ok | 05:57 |
| Kurosaki_Ichigo | what happens if i install ubuntu with a 2gb swap and the rest a '/' moint point, with no /home? | 05:57 |
| melz | Shadow147, sound works fine in other apps, also works in embedded mp3s etc | 05:58 |
| dfwlinuxguy | it blows up!!!! | 05:58 |
| dfwlinuxguy | HA!!! | 05:58 |
| Kurosaki_Ichigo | D:!!! | 05:58 |
| dfwlinuxguy | what do you mean what happens? | 05:58 |
| Kurosaki_Ichigo | i mean | 05:58 |
| Shadow147 | hmm weird | 05:58 |
| Kurosaki_Ichigo | what happens... | 05:58 |
| Kurosaki_Ichigo | can i stll have a /home? | 05:58 |
| dfwlinuxguy | it will work just fine | 05:58 |
| Kurosaki_Ichigo | @__@ | 05:58 |
| dfwlinuxguy | yes | 05:58 |
| Kurosaki_Ichigo | ooooh | 05:58 |
| Shadow147 | flash is wierd sometimes | 05:58 |
| Kurosaki_Ichigo | but its not seperate | 05:58 |
| dfwlinuxguy | it's not on a separate partition | 05:58 |
| Kurosaki_Ichigo | thats only for updating / without cahnging /home files, isnt it | 05:58 |
| Kurosaki_Ichigo | >> | 05:58 |
| melz | Shadow147, no harm in me trying that mozilla flash thing instead??? eh | 05:59 |
| Shadow147 | yea no harm | 05:59 |
| chuy_max | why when I use the free command after using and closing apps says that I'm using too much RAM? (supposedly I'm using 885MB, with only xchat, amsn, and audio player) | 05:59 |
| dfwlinuxguy | if /home is on a separate partition and you re-partition to only having / ..it will wipe out all the files in /home | 05:59 |
| Tech-Mike | sup peeps, rt2500usb is included in 7.10 kernel right? how do i disable that one and use the one i installed through ndiswrapper? | 05:59 |
| Shadow147 | if it does not work just remove it | 05:59 |
| melz | Shadow147, is that what it's called, "mozilla-flash" coz it says no packagae found | 06:00 |
| chuy_max | according to gnome-system-monitor, I'm using 354MB of user memory., no swap | 06:00 |
| Shadow147 | melz let me check | 06:00 |
| dfwlinuxguy | free -m | 06:00 |
| Sonarx | Hello! Does anyone in here have experience using Gtkmm with Eclipse? | 06:00 |
| danbhfive | melz: isnt it flashplugin-nonfree? | 06:02 |
| Tech-Mike | another question...why are modules/drivers i blacklist (etc/modprobe.d/blacklist) getting loaded upon boot | 06:02 |
| Sonarx | Noone huh? | 06:02 |
| bulmer | Tech-Mike-> you can always remove loaded modules with modprobe -r modname | 06:02 |
| chuy_max | dfwlinuxguy, huh?, yes, free -m | 06:02 |
| Tech-Mike | ok, what the difference of that and rmmod | 06:02 |
| Vandalite | ok, i've been slugging at this remote session thing, and now i'm stuck. I've got an xvnc server set up to run from xinetd, and my logs show that it starts, and stops. and my vnc client gets no chance to actually connect | 06:03 |
| dfwlinuxguy | chuy_max that will give you your RAM usage stats | 06:03 |
| Vandalite | where can i find the log that explained what just happened? | 06:03 |
| PirateHead | Is there an Ubuntu program that can read Visio .vsd files? | 06:03 |
| chuy_max | dfwlinuxguy, ok, so doesn't it display actual RAM usage? | 06:03 |
| harushimo | i'm off | 06:03 |
| harushimo | thanks everyone | 06:03 |
| bulmer | Tech-Mike-> man modprobe and man rmmod for better explaination | 06:04 |
| Tech-Mike | i8 thx | 06:04 |
| dfwlinuxguy | chuy_never seen "using too much ram message" ..yes it does display actual ram usage | 06:04 |
| hottium | melz: have you tried this: http://planet-geek.com/archives/003048.html | 06:04 |
| Rob123 | Hi, I need help with a help login problem | 06:04 |
| Sonarx | What's the problem? | 06:04 |
| Shadow147 | melz goto adobe.com for the flash download | 06:04 |
| dfwlinuxguy | chuy_max have you tried googling that error? | 06:04 |
| PirateHead | Shadow147: You can download Flash via the Add/Remove programs dialog. | 06:05 |
| Rob123 | well the user acounts keep having errors | 06:05 |
| Shadow147 | that true try that melz | 06:05 |
| Sonarx | What is the error? | 06:05 |
| melz | alright thanks hottium and Shadow147 | 06:05 |
| Shadow147 | np melz | 06:05 |
| chuy_max | dfwlinuxguy, it's not an error, or at least I don't think so. maybe its something I'm not understanding, gnome's system monitor tells me I'm using 360MB RAM and not using swap, while free -m tells me I'm using 896MB RAM not using swap. | 06:06 |
| bulmer | Vandalite-> not all messages goes to /var/log/messages but plenty enuff for troubleshooting | 06:06 |
| Rob123 | admin keeps deleting my acounts and im using a temparary acount | 06:07 |
| dfwlinuxguy | chuy_max ok...where did you see something that said you were using too much swap? | 06:07 |
| dfwlinuxguy | or RAM? | 06:07 |
| bulmer | Rob123-> who is the admin? | 06:07 |
| Rob123 | i am | 06:07 |
| bulmer | Rob123-> then tell yourself not to delete those users | 06:07 |
| Sonarx | lol | 06:07 |
| chuy_max | dfwlinuxguy, the problem is, I get two different values, from gnome system monitor and free -m | 06:07 |
| dfwlinuxguy | I would only trust the results of free | 06:08 |
| Vandalite | yeah, except that my messages log is getting flodded by a stupid problem with the memory card reader on Playstation 3's. | 06:08 |
| chuy_max | dfwlinuxguy, my system is set to use 512MB swap, but it doesn't use any at the time, I have plenty of RAM: 1.28GB RAM | 06:08 |
| dfwlinuxguy | command line utils trump gui's any day | 06:08 |
| Rob123 | lol but i need to fix this and i need to know how to bypass to get to the user acounts | 06:09 |
| bulmer | Vandalite-> look for some kind of syslog.conf and perhaps you can disable the settings for that specific source | 06:09 |
| Sp3c1alK | hey | 06:09 |
| logos | What's up? | 06:09 |
| Sonarx | Rob -->I'm not clear on what your trying to do. | 06:09 |
| chuy_max | dfwlinuxguy, and I also was concerned because having open xchat, amarok and amsn and using almost 900MB RAM, I was like, wtf, isn't that supposed to be too much RAM for just a few apps? | 06:09 |
| Vandalite | I'm not sure i wanna disable all logs from my system kernel.... | 06:09 |
| Sp3c1alK | nothing..just trying to get ubuntu to work right | 06:09 |
| bulmer | Vandalite-> not all, just from specific sources | 06:10 |
| dfwlinuxguy | chuy_yes that seems excessive | 06:10 |
| logos | I like special K :-) always good to have a little cereal in your stomach before consuming it anyhow, i suppose. | 06:10 |
| chuy_max | dfwlinuxguy, when I start my system, only like 400MB are used, but after closing apps, it's like if memory isn't released | 06:10 |
| Sp3c1alK | hahaha thats what I say | 06:10 |
| chuy_max | after opening and closing apps | 06:10 |
| Vandalite | if you can tell me how to get the kernel to just shut up about the SDD and SDE drives, i'll be happy | 06:10 |
| logos | awesome | 06:10 |
| kurisutofuaa | How do I change my bash shell to Zsh (I have been reading about but I cant figure out how to change to it. I do Have it installed.) | 06:10 |
| logos | u been running ubuntu long? | 06:10 |
| Sp3c1alK | trying to get it to run | 06:11 |
| Sp3c1alK | after I installed Ubuntu, I'm not trying to load it from the GRUB screen..but my monitor would say no signal through the boot | 06:11 |
| dfwlinuxguy | chuy_it will not show up as free automatically if you just close an app | 06:11 |
| logos | it's probably my first week here, and the first time on the irc channel... glad to know xchat comes with it | 06:11 |
| Sp3c1alK | I'm tryin to load it* | 06:11 |
| logos | oh, that sux | 06:11 |
| logos | :-P | 06:11 |
| Sp3c1alK | yeah | 06:11 |
| Sp3c1alK | so I did the recovery boot, and type in sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and change some stuff around | 06:11 |
| Sp3c1alK | but I still can't get it to work | 06:12 |
| Vandalite | sigh, i know enough about irc clients to write my own, or hack a connection from telnet... gawd i'm a geek | 06:12 |
| chuy_max | logos, there's a command for that, try chsh | 06:12 |
| dfwlinuxguy | anyone notice how the levels of spam have dropped significantly in the past week or so? | 06:12 |
| logos | chsh :Unknown command | 06:12 |
| chuy_max | or was it for kurisutofuaa? | 06:12 |
| logos | ?questionmark? | 06:12 |
| Sp3c1alK | is anyone familiar with the xserver-xorg?? | 06:12 |
| Sp3c1alK | anyone know xserver stuff?? | 06:13 |
| chuy_max | logos, huh?, it comes in the passwd app, it should be installed by default with your ubuntu installation | 06:13 |
| dfwlinuxguy | !ask | Sp3c1alK | 06:13 |
| ubotu | Sp3c1alK: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :) | 06:13 |
| logos | what is it I'm trying to do? | 06:13 |
| Rob123 | im a newbie to ubuntu and i started tampering with the user acounts and i think its messed-up (sry slow @ chating any idea on how to bypass to get to the user acounts!?! help would be nice | 06:13 |
| rubydiamond | how to open .vsd file in ubuntu | 06:14 |
| bulmer | Vandalite-> umm what do you have in your /etc/udev/udev.conf ? lines without comments? | 06:14 |
| Olentz | hey guys | 06:14 |
| logos | damn, i'm a newb too... haven't IRC'd for like 6-7 yrs. | 06:14 |
| Ramsey_ | yo | 06:14 |
| chuy_max | dfwlinuxguy, ok, that is the reason then, do you know why it doesn't do it automatically? (gnome system monitor shows it automatically) | 06:14 |
| Olentz | ok, so i already use ubuntu on my other machine | 06:14 |
| Olentz | and it rox! | 06:14 |
| Vandalite | hang on, lemme extract that for you | 06:14 |
| chuy_max | logos, sorry, the message was for another dude | 06:14 |
| bulmer | kurisutofuaa-> you can via the /etc/passwd entry...are you sure you want zsh as your shell? | 06:15 |
| Olentz | but now i'm thinking to use ubuntu on my windows working laptop | 06:15 |
| letha1 | when i switch users on Ubuntu 7.10, and try to switch back, i get a white screen and it refuses to change | 06:15 |
| Sp3c1alK | ok..well in xserver when I'm setting the monitor resolutions, do I put a star next to the ones I want to use? | 06:15 |
| logos | chuy_max, ohhhh, thx... btw, is my name auto-hilighted when i mention yours? | 06:15 |
| logos | and vice versa? | 06:15 |
| Vandalite | actually all that's uncommented is one line: udev_log="err" | 06:15 |
| Olentz | can anyone suggest me a good virtualization app ? | 06:15 |
| chuy_max | logos, yeah, that's why its wise to write the name when you want to grab someone's attention | 06:15 |
| bulmer | Vandalite-> when responding pls prefix with a nick of whom you're responding to | 06:15 |
| logos | chuy_max, thanks :-) | 06:16 |
| Vandalite | these aren't errors though, they're kernel messages. the kernel's stuck in a loop constantly trying to talk to my memory card readers which i'm assuming aren't working right with ubuntu | 06:16 |
| rlount | Olentz, kvm. If your hardware supports it. | 06:16 |
| Ramsey_ | Does anyone know how to change the default icons for a specific file type? | 06:16 |
| Olentz | ibm T42 notebook :) | 06:16 |
| chuy_max | logos, a tip for starters, you can autocomplete names with tab button :) | 06:16 |
| Vandalite | bulmer: will do | 06:16 |
| chuy_max | logos, just like autocompletion in a terminal | 06:16 |
| logos | chuy_max: ohhhh, gotcha... like a command, i like that :-) | 06:16 |
| logos | exactly | 06:17 |
| Sp3c1alK | I can't get the ubuntu login screen to come up, can someone help? | 06:17 |
| rlount | Olentz, issue: cat /proc/cpuinfo |grep vmx For Intel | 06:17 |
| bulmer | Vandalite-> kernel have different debug levels of reporting error, what you saw err is just one of them | 06:17 |
| Vandalite | bulmer: well it's spamming four of my logs, kern.log, messages, syslog, and debug, all with this info | 06:17 |
| kurisutofuaa | bulmer: Yeah from what I have read I been wanting to try it out | 06:17 |
| letha1 | does anyone else have problems with logging out or switching users? when i try to do it, it gets stuck on a white screen and refuses to change | 06:17 |
| chuy_max | Sp3c1alK, why not?, any error?, did you messed the system?, installation didn't work properly?, elaborate your questions | 06:17 |
| rlount | Olentz, I'm pretty sure IBM is Intel. If you get a return of vmx, cool. | 06:18 |
| Tech-Mike | even if i modprobe -r rt2500usb , unplug device, plug back in - it loads rt2500usb back in | 06:18 |
| bulmer | kurisutofuaa-> modify the shell entry at the /etc/passwd entry.. for that specific user | 06:18 |
| Sp3c1alK | chuy: Installationwas fine (I'm assuming) if I go into the recovery mode, i can type into what appears to be a console | 06:18 |
| Vandalite | bulmer: it's marked as a known issue with ubuntu on ps3 systems, but it's making it hard to find out why my Xvnc server's aren't working with Xinetd. | 06:18 |
| bulmer | Vandalite-> well you can remove that offending device since its faulty anyways right? | 06:18 |
| chuy_max | kurisutofuaa, did you see my message? | 06:19 |
| Vandalite | bulmer: if i knew how... | 06:19 |
| Sp3c1alK | chuy: but when I boot straight normally, I don't get anything on the screen | 06:19 |
| Sp3c1alK | just an empy black screen, before my monitor would lose signal but I changed stuff in the xserver-xorg and still doesn't work | 06:19 |
| Olentz | rlount: ugh, that machine is using windows... and it's a company machine, i can't wipe it out with ubuntu... and i have to work on windows all the time, so i'm planning to put the ubuntu ISO file (or any installation file for the system) on my external drive. Now I'm looking for the smallest and easiest virtual app so I don't use that many hd space on the notebook.. | 06:20 |
| Sp3c1alK | and I have tried to re-install | 06:20 |
| bulmer | Vandalite-> you are running ubuntu on ps3? let me have your ps3 instead my kid needs a xmas gift..hehehe | 06:20 |
| continentaltest | question regarding Kubuntu 7.10 new install using virtualbox ... getting an error when I attempt to start the VM to install a windozeXP image therein ... 'fatal ... vboxdrv kernel not installed' Have set permissions correctly, added use to vboxusers group, tried to SUDO SU, /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup, but cannot get the setup command to function ... any ideas how to get the 'setup' command to function as advertised under root | 06:20 |
| Vandalite | bulmer: HAH! no. sorry. paid too much for it. | 06:20 |
| chuy_max | Sp3c1alK, what version of ubuntu are you running? | 06:20 |
| Sp3c1alK | The newest | 06:20 |
| Sp3c1alK | chuy: the newest | 06:20 |
| letha1 | do you add the user, using vbox to the user list continentaltest? | 06:20 |
| bulmer | Vandalite-> do you really have ubuntu running on ps3? | 06:21 |
| continentaltest | letha1: yes | 06:21 |
| Vandalite | bulmer: do i have to take a picture? | 06:21 |
| chuy_max | Sp3c1alK, mmm, I also had problems with video card in my laptop, the splash didn't show up, but if I waited for like a minute, login screen appeared | 06:21 |
| logos | bulmer: do you happen to know if one can run Ubuntu on his PS2??? | 06:21 |
| _12-21-2012 | probably not | 06:21 |
| Sp3c1alK | I waited for about 5 minutes but nothing still..I'm using an 8800gtx | 06:21 |
| bulmer | Vandalite thats cool, im just starting to toy with embedded linux :) | 06:21 |
| logos | Vandalite: you're awesome, lol | 06:21 |
| rlount | Olentz, ah. Well then, I am not much help I'm afraid. Too bad, Ubuntu relly works well on IBM laptops. | 06:21 |
| Sp3c1alK | chuy: I waited for 5 minutes or so, i'm using an 8800gtx (sorry i keep forgetting to put your name) | 06:21 |
| Vandalite | it's not just running, i've got an ssh server, and i'm trying to set up an xvnc display | 06:22 |
| bulmer | logos-> i cant afford toys like that..hehe | 06:22 |
| * hiredgoon pets his T30 | 06:22 | |
| melz | -_- welll I have tried installing flash from adobe and I still have no sound, tried changing the setting in firefoxrc to aoss, anyone knowhow to get sound working in flash, on firfox?? | 06:22 |
| Olentz | rlount: so what's the problem with kvm? is it too big? or is it not portable enough? | 06:22 |
| Vandalite | AFAIK, it's not ps3 specific, i'd be running into this problem on any system. i just gotta figure out why xvnc doesn't STAY started. | 06:22 |
| logos | bulmer, heh, yeah, luckily I got my ps2 free of charge from someone with whom I've lost contact. He thought it didn't work. | 06:22 |
| rlount | Olentz, you can try running a live cd all the time to prove you should be allowed to run Ubuntu ;) | 06:22 |
| Vandalite | daemon.log shows it starting, and stopping very very quickly. | 06:22 |
| Tagalong | My machine will not bring up the live CD | 06:23 |
| Olentz | hahaha, well... we have all sort of windows application going on... like lotus notes for emails, scheduling.... and the application that i'm supporting is all windows... | 06:23 |
| bulmer | logos-> google around i guess, there's proly really good hacks to put it on that | 06:23 |
| logos | Tagalong: does it boot from cd? need you change the bios settings? | 06:23 |
| rlount | Olentz, kvm is a Linux app that takes advantage of native hardware support for virtualization. It's usually (virt support) enabled in bios, then you install kvm and qemu. | 06:23 |
| logos | bulmer: good to go. | 06:23 |
| chuy_max | Sp3c1alK, it's chuy_max , can you enter a terminal?, try to press CTRL+ALT+F1 | 06:24 |
| Tagalong | Well, that's not completely true. It does boot on the machine, but it never completes the startup. I get SQUASHFS errors. | 06:24 |
| Olentz | rlount, so what is the different btween hardware and software virtualization? | 06:24 |
| bulmer | Vandalite-> i know you wanted to start it at boot, but does it work if you manualy start xvncserver? | 06:24 |
| Alp- | i downloaded some fonts, but know in all my programs the mono font is terrible (very bad readable font). even if i switch the system default font for mono i have to manually change it in every program. is there a way to switch the defaults? the "wrong" font is named "monobook" but it should be "deja vu sans mono" | 06:25 |
| melz | hi, I have gutsy, using firfox, there is no sound in flash ojbects eg. youtube and other flash things, anyone know how to fix?? | 06:25 |
| Sp3c1alK | chuy_max: nope the only time I can get terminal is going into recovery mode | 06:25 |
| dr_pressure | hey guys... i'm running gcc on the latest livecd... my program crashes and it says core dumped, but i cant find the core (ulimit -c is unlimited)... any suggestions? | 06:25 |
| Vandalite | bulmer: actually, yes. as long as i don't have xinetd listening to the port first, it does start, and i can connect to it | 06:25 |
| gluonman | Anyone know how I can use my laptop computer (which is connected to a neighbourhood wireless connection) as a "router" for my desktop so I can connect the desktop to the internet? | 06:25 |
| Tagalong | The machine is a dell 2450 P3 733 mhz. It runs Windows server 2003 just fine. | 06:25 |
| Vandalite | bullmer: it's actually quite verbose when it runs that way. too bad i can't see any of that output when it's run from xinetd. | 06:26 |
| rlount | Olentz, with kvm, you have direct proc access for the virt machines whereas even things like xen use processor extensions. Thats one advantage. Google it up and check it out. | 06:26 |
| chuy_max | Sp3c1alK, then go into recovery mode, and check which video driver and resolution you are using, you can find this info in /etc/X11/xorg.conf . you can find it catting the file and grepping: cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf|grep river | 06:26 |
| hiredgoon | gluonman: i think you can do that if you install firestarter firewall | 06:26 |
| chuy_max | Sp3c1alK, you might have something like vesa, or nvidia | 06:26 |
| gluonman | hiredgoon, but do I need to install that on the desktop? Because my desktop has no way of connecting to the internet right now. | 06:27 |
| bulmer | Vandalite-> umm xinetd would only listen to that port if told to do so right? so if you dont have the configs to listen on same port on 5900(?) why would xinetd listen to it? | 06:27 |
| Shadow147 | Tagalong Win 2003 is a death trap eith use ubuntu fully or get XP | 06:27 |
| chuy_max | Sp3c1alK, or do nano, and search what resolution you are using, that might also be the problem. | 06:27 |
| Olentz | gluonman: i don't know how to do it on linux, but basically you have to create a bridge between your wireless connection and ethernet card. If you connect to the internet using wireless connection, then you will only have one other client connected to the internet through the ethernet port. | 06:27 |
| Sp3c1alK | chuy_max: if I use vesa, my monitor will shut off saying signal lost, but If i use nv (im guessing nvidia) my monitor stays on but nothing appears | 06:27 |
| Vandalite | xinetd listens to the port, then starts the xvnc server AS i connect. | 06:27 |
| Vandalite | this allows me to only run the xsession while connected to it. | 06:28 |
| hiredgoon | gluonman: no, when you install it on the laptop you tell it which nic has the internet and which nic is the local network, your workstation should get dhcp from it then and connect through it | 06:28 |
| hiredgoon | or in theory anyways | 06:28 |
| === tag-_ is now known as tag- | ||
| gluonman | Olentz, I understand that, but the how of it is my question. | 06:28 |
| hiredgoon | i just saw that option in there but have never tried it | 06:28 |
| Sp3c1alK | chuy_max: is that what I type in the console? /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 06:28 |
| PinkFloyd | Could anyone help me with Desktop Effects? I have them enabled on an Nvidia GeForce 5200 FX, but my title bar and window borders are gone | 06:28 |
| Vandalite | bullmer: whoops, sorry, forgot to preface... did you catch that? | 06:28 |
| Tagalong | Shadow147, I am wanting to replace Windows Server. I am trying to boot and install from the live CD. | 06:28 |
| chuy_max | Sp3c1alK, no, that is X server config file | 06:28 |
| Shadow147 | ok you have to reformet the hard drive | 06:29 |
| dr_pressure | c'mon guys core dumps, why cant i find them... i dont have this problem on good old vista (jk) | 06:29 |
| chuy_max | Sp3c1alK, ehrm, then try removing all resolutions but your resolution. did you tried: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 06:29 |
| chuy_max | ? | 06:29 |
| gluonman | hiredgoom, so I install Firestarter Firewall on my laptop, and that will allow me to configure my connection so that my desktop taps into it via an ethernet cable? | 06:29 |
| Shadow147 | to ext3 | 06:29 |
| bulmer | Vandalite yeah..but i dont remember how to get xinetd to give preference to your xvncserver | 06:29 |
| hiredgoon | gluonman: so is my understanding | 06:29 |
| Shadow147 | the live cd has a partition program built into it | 06:29 |
| PinkFloyd | gluonman, you dont need Firestarter to have a connection | 06:29 |
| tag- | wonder why pidgin keeps crashing | 06:29 |
| Olentz | rlount: okay, i will do some research first. thanks for helping! | 06:29 |
| Tagalong | Shadow147, Oh? Ok, I can do that. What if I just delete the partition? Will that work? | 06:29 |
| gluonman | hiredgoon, I'll fiddle around with it then. If I can't figure it out, I'll be back. | 06:29 |
| logos | would anyone suggest for or against using the restricted fglrx drivers for an ATI Radeon 9600?? | 06:30 |
| bulmer | gluonman-> you dont need the firewall, you jst have to activate ip_forwarding and nat | 06:30 |
| Shadow147 | delete the partition and make a new one that ext3 | 06:30 |
| gluonman | bulmer, how do I do that/ | 06:30 |
| gluonman | ? | 06:30 |
| bulmer | assuming your laptop will dole out the ip address | 06:30 |
| rlount | Olentz, np! good luck on it. | 06:30 |
| Tagalong | Will the live CD do that? | 06:30 |
| Sp3c1alK | chuy_max, yes thats what I used the first time, if I want to keep a resolution do I put a star by it (hit spacebar)? | 06:30 |
| Shadow147 | yeah | 06:30 |
| Shadix | wha? | 06:30 |
| Tagalong | Thanks!!! | 06:30 |
| chuy_max | Sp3c1alK, yes | 06:30 |
| Shadow147 | np | 06:30 |
| rlount | dr_pressure, you get an answer? | 06:31 |
| Vandalite | bulmer: just to give you some help here, it's already configured. the daemon.log SHOWS the Xvnc program running... then stopping again. | 06:31 |
| bulmer | gluonman-> umm i dont know the exact details offhand, something like echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forwarding | 06:31 |
| Wisteso | does totem not have a decss plugin? | 06:31 |
| Vandalite | bulmer: i'm trying to figure out where the output from the Xvnc program went | 06:31 |
| rlount | dr_pressure, what application is crashing? | 06:31 |
| Sp3c1alK | chuy_max, I've tried, just using 1680x1050, and using 1280x768 and lower | 06:31 |
| Shadix | ok so my BIOS keeps dropping the keyboard on boot | 06:31 |
| gluonman | bulmer, in terminal? | 06:31 |
| bulmer | Vandalite, ahh okay..umm perhaps an option to xvnc to redirect the output to stderr? or whatever you choose? | 06:32 |
| Shadix | and comp super slooooow | 06:32 |
| bulmer | gluonman-> yes and as root or sudo root | 06:32 |
| chuy_max | Sp3c1alK, and what's your monitor resolution? | 06:32 |
| Wisteso | anyone know why the gst-ugly set isn't allowing totem to play back dvds? | 06:33 |
| Sp3c1alK | max is 1680x1050 | 06:33 |
| Vandalite | just add >> /var/log/Xvnc.log to the end of the command args? | 06:33 |
| Sp3c1alK | chuy_max: max is 1680x1050 | 06:33 |
| PinkFloyd | Could anyone help me with Desktop Effects? I have them enabled on an Nvidia GeForce 5200 FX, but my title bar and window borders are gone | 06:33 |
| gluonman | bulmer, didn't work. | 06:33 |
| chuy_max | Sp3c1alK, ehrm, it would be quite advanced, but you can try to adjust monitor values manually, like frequency and stuff, you can get that info in the back of the monitor | 06:33 |
| arghh2d2 | I got a small problem, I set my bootup runlevel to text login, i took removed gdm, in other words, but now, after startx'ing wich starts gnome, i cant shutdown or reboot from the logout menu...Do I need to do some sudo magic on startx or something? | 06:33 |
| bulmer | gluonman-> there are several steps, thats just one of them | 06:33 |
| gluonman | bulmer, do you know the first step? | 06:33 |
| rlount | PinkFloyd, nv driver or nvidia driver? | 06:34 |
| PinkFloyd | rlount nvidia | 06:34 |
| bulmer | gluonman-> that would be it, then you have to assign an ip address to your desktop | 06:34 |
| Sp3c1alK | chuy_max: No I don't thinkg I want to do that, it looks like I already lost my vista parition =( | 06:34 |
| rlount | PinkFloyd, right... that sucks. | 06:34 |
| logos | PinkFloyd: I've had that problem before as well, althought I'm running ati drivers... I'd suggest going to System, pref's, appearance; and then visual effects tab.. then change it back to none and then back to normal | 06:34 |
| rlount | have you tried other themes? | 06:34 |
| DShepherd | PinkFloyd, To fix your beryl/compiz window decorations (titlebars) with an nVidia graphics card, run « sudo nvidia-xconfig --add-argb-glx-visuals -d 24 », then restart !X. | 06:34 |
| zouhair | Hi which very good sound do you advise me to buy for my next Ubuntu PC? | 06:34 |
| gluonman | bulmer, maybe you didn't give me the right syntax because I am receiving an error saying that the file or directory doesn't exist. | 06:34 |
| logos | PinkFloyd: actually, listen to DShepherd | 06:35 |
| logos | PinkFloyd: lol | 06:35 |
| U11438 | oh, | 06:35 |
| noob101 | hi does anyone knows if it is possible to develop and deploy webobjects in ubuntu? | 06:35 |
| bulmer | gluonman-> cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward if zero then echo 1> /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward | 06:35 |
| addaan | i cant see a list of people in this room | 06:35 |
| sethk | noob101, it is, but I don't know the specifics | 06:36 |
| bulmer | noob101-> its possible, java stuff is allowed | 06:36 |
| sethk | noob101, the apache web site has a wealth of information about web technologies | 06:36 |
| PinkFloyd | DShepherd I have another problem. My terminal is just a white screen | 06:36 |
| noob101 | sethk bulmer : do you know a link of how to ? | 06:36 |
| ere4si | what's the cli command to add a user pls? | 06:36 |
| noob101 | sethk bulmer : do you know a good site? | 06:36 |
| sethk | noob101, start at www.apache.org. everything there is open source and available for linux | 06:36 |
| sethk | noob101, they have the tomcat application server, among other things | 06:37 |
| bulmer | noob101-> webobject is too generic for me, umm find out which webapp server you're deploying and visit their web site | 06:37 |
| gluonman | bulmer, "permission denied." | 06:37 |
| letha1 | when trying to switch users or logout, i get a whitescreen | 06:37 |
| bulmer | gluonman-> as root... | 06:37 |
| letha1 | is there any way i could fix this? | 06:37 |
| noob101 | sethk bulmer : is it possible to develop webobjects in linux particularly in ubuntu? | 06:37 |
| addaan | anyone else have troubles with nvidias new beta drivers ? | 06:37 |
| bulmer | noob101-> yes, load the java jdk | 06:37 |
| sethk | noob101, yes, as I said you have application servers, java, just about anything | 06:38 |
| sethk | noob101, even .net is available (see the mono package) | 06:38 |
| ejandi | when i start up my system, my desktop crashes, wat should i do | 06:38 |
| bulmer | letha1-> type contrl+alt+del | 06:38 |
| letha1 | that doesnt do anything | 06:38 |
| sethk | ejandi, wear your seat belt? | 06:38 |
| letha1 | i have to type cntrl+alt+f1 | 06:38 |
| sethk | ejandi, boot in recovery mode, look at the X log | 06:38 |
| gluonman | bulmer, sorry. I'm a noob. To do it as root requires placing sudo at the front of the code, right? But I tried your code with sudo at front and it still said permission denied. So I'm obviously ignorant of something. | 06:38 |
| letha1 | to get into command line, that's all i could do | 06:39 |
| bulmer | letha1-> ctrl+alt+F1 and log on , then /etc/init.d/gdm restart | 06:39 |
| bulmer | gluonman-> being a newbie and you want to do these advance stuff? then read more ..i cant spoon feed you | 06:39 |
| arghh2d2 | Is there a way to start gnome without gdm? | 06:39 |
| ejandi | sethk, how do i get the X log | 06:40 |
| zouhair | :( | 06:40 |
| sethk | arghh2d2, sure, startx | 06:40 |
| DShepherd | arghh2d2, startx? | 06:40 |
| addaan | is there 1100 users in this channel alone or on the server | 06:40 |
| sethk | ejandi, it's in /var/log/X.... I'll look up the exact name ... | 06:40 |
| letha1 | ill try it now to see if it works | 06:40 |
| n2diy | addaan: this channel! | 06:40 |
| DShepherd | addaan, in this room | 06:40 |
| sethk | ejandi, usually /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 06:40 |
| gluonman | bulmer, okay. I've been trying to find a tutorial in the forums. Havind difficulty. How about if I make a deal. You tell me how to write the code in a way that gives me permissions and I ask you no further question. huh? | 06:40 |
| addaan | wow... and its like 3 in the morning where im from | 06:41 |
| arghh2d2 | sethk, DShepherd, my problem with startx is that theres no shutdown or reboot on the logout menu, i dont want people using it to resort to hardboot | 06:41 |
| ejandi | sethk, from they wat should i do | 06:41 |
| sethk | ejandi, hopefully you'll see why it's crashing. Look at the end of the file, because it will hopefully tell you why it stopped | 06:41 |
| n2diy | addaan: this is slow, I've seen nearly 1400 users here. | 06:41 |
| addaan | this is my first time on linux | 06:42 |
| ejandi | tanx | 06:42 |
| sethk | arghh2d2, it is possible to start gnome from the command line. I don't remember the precise syntax, though | 06:42 |
| addaan | not because linux is great but because microsoft must be stopped | 06:42 |
| bulmer | gluonman-> here is the deal, please read this http://www.ubuntugeek.com/sharing-internet-connection-in-ubuntu.html | 06:42 |
| ejandi | sethk, if thhe problem persist, how can i get u | 06:42 |
| n2diy | addaan: welcome to the party. :) | 06:42 |
| gluonman | bulmer, thanks. | 06:42 |
| sethk | addaan, it's a bit late to be closing that particular barn door | 06:42 |
| Shadow147 | gluonman what are you trying to do? | 06:42 |
| sethk | ejandi, I'm often here. You can pm me if you like. It's 1:45 am here, though, and I may not stay awake much longer. | 06:43 |
| gluonman | Shadow147, share my laptops wireless internet connection with my desktop. | 06:43 |
| arghh2d2 | sethk, my startx starts gnome, i just wondered if there's a way to do it so that the user has shutdown rights | 06:43 |
| addaan | we just need to convince others to switch, | 06:43 |
| Shadow147 | sethk you are on the same time I am | 06:43 |
| Vandalite | bulmer: i think i might know what causes this, i'll let you know if i'm right... | 06:43 |
| gandhii | add: linux is getting pretty close to great | 06:43 |
| Shadow147 | ok | 06:43 |
| sethk | arghh2d2, I believe so. I'm trying to remember something about it. | 06:43 |
| ejandi | sethk, wat about ur email address at least | 06:43 |
| bulmer | Vandalite-> thanks, im curious as to how you resolved it | 06:43 |
| sethk | Shadow147, I'm in New York | 06:43 |
| sethk | ejandi, seth@cql.com | 06:44 |
| Shadow147 | 1 it's very robust | 06:44 |
| addaan | its real close, if i werent a gamer i would be done with XP altogether | 06:44 |
| Shadow147 | well there alot of games for linux | 06:44 |
| gandhii | yea.. professional graphics apps for me.. | 06:44 |
| sethk | I have a job I'm starting Monday that's only linux (well, except for email), so I'm happy. | 06:44 |
| ejandi | sethk, if i am to get the solution will it give me solutions on how to solve my problem | 06:44 |
| Vandalite | bulmer: now i'm getting a different error -- now i think it's XDMCP not talking to Xvnc. | 06:44 |
| gandhii | although blender is my 3d app now.. so I have no want to do any 3d with windows | 06:44 |
| bulmer | gluonman-> oh i forgot to mention, you do have dual nics on your laptop right? one for wifi and the other is ethernet towards your desktop | 06:44 |
| n2diy | sethk: what do they use for email? | 06:44 |
| arghh2d2 | sethk, congratulations. | 06:44 |
| sethk | ejandi, it's hard to say; there are so many possibilities. | 06:45 |
| SireeBob | I'm wondering what would cause a monitor to NOT turn back on after it has been blanked? This happens to me occasionally | 06:45 |
| sethk | n2diy, not sure yet. I like sylpheed on both unix and windows | 06:45 |
| gluonman | bulmer, yes. | 06:45 |
| Pogonip_ | where can I get instructions on starting a daemon at boot up? | 06:45 |
| n2diy | sethk: so it is an email server? | 06:45 |
| sethk | n2diy, possible I can use the email on linux. It's a new company, and a small one, so they don't have any M$ junk | 06:45 |
| Shadow147 | stehk I am in Indiana | 06:45 |
| lugo | what is going on | 06:45 |
| addaan | installing ubuntu i found was even easier then windows | 06:45 |
| sethk | n2diy, no, sylpheed is a client. I use the postfix server. | 06:45 |
| Shadix | Shadow147, why are all of your msgs tagging me? | 06:46 |
| sethk | Shadix, Indiana is still EST? Or are you where they don't change the clocks. | 06:46 |
| bulmer | Vandalite-> i prefer to use freenx..much faster and uses ssh to secure link, needs ssh server running as minimum | 06:46 |
| SireeBob | The screen on my desktop will go blank from idle and then I move the mouse or press a key and the screen won't return - the system is still running fine and I can VNC to it, etc. though | 06:46 |
| Shadow147 | I have no Idea Shadix | 06:46 |
| sethk | Shadix, sorry, I meand Shadow147 :) | 06:46 |
| Ademan | when iptables blocks an outgoing connection is it possible to see what process tried to make that connection? | 06:46 |
| utarpradesh | hi, i want to install libfox, but it prompts me to insert the ubuntu CD.... | 06:46 |
| gandhii | i use thunderbird... on any OS.. | 06:46 |
| sethk | Shadow147, , Indiana is still EST? Or are you where they don't change the clocks. | 06:46 |
| Shadix | ah | 06:46 |
| arghh2d2 | uhm | 06:46 |
| Squalish | What's the most read place to suggest a feature? | 06:46 |
| utarpradesh | how do i bypass inserting the CD?? i don't have the CD | 06:46 |
| Vandalite | bulmer: it's got an ssh server. i'm using it as a tunnel for the vnc link | 06:46 |
| bulmer | Pogonip_-> google for init.d and rc.d | 06:46 |
| U11438 | Ubuntu 7.10 there are no dial-up ADSL GUI tool? | 06:46 |
| sethk | utarpradesh, you can remove the CD from the repository list | 06:46 |
| n2diy | sethk: ok, I don't know anything about email servers, what is wrong with Firefox for the client? | 06:46 |
| Shadow147 | I change | 06:46 |
| utarpradesh | sethk: how? | 06:47 |
| sethk | n2diy, nothing really wrong. sylpheed is lighter weight. | 06:47 |
| utarpradesh | it's not necessary to install libfox? | 06:47 |
| sethk | utarpradesh, in sources.list, or in synaptic there's a dialog to do it | 06:47 |
| Shadix | ah fixed my bad | 06:47 |
| n2diy | sethk: Whoops, I meant Thunderbird, Firefox is the browser. :/ | 06:47 |
| sethk | n2diy, right, I assumed that | 06:47 |
| Pogonip_ | Thanks bulmer. | 06:47 |
| U11438 | Ubuntu 7.10 there are no dial-up ADSL GUI tool? | 06:47 |
| sethk | n2diy, sylpheed goes faster, has fewer fancy display features | 06:47 |
| U11438 | help me | 06:47 |
| bulmer | Vandalite-> you have the right tools, just dont know how to troubleshoot xdmcp or whatever authentication X window uses | 06:48 |
| sethk | U11438, there is a tool, but I haven't done dial up in ages and I don't remember where it is. It does exist, though. | 06:48 |
| n2diy | sethk: Whoops, I'll have to check it out, it is new to me. Does it play with Firefox? | 06:48 |
| Shadix | Shadow147, for some reason I had the nick Shadow flagged for a highlight | 06:48 |
| sethk | n2diy, you mean as far as handling mailto URIs? I believe you can point firefox at any mail client. | 06:48 |
| utarpradesh | cool, thank you so much sethk | 06:48 |
| U11438 | thanks | 06:49 |
| bulmer | Vandalite-> i meant i dont know how to troubleshoot that X window thing | 06:49 |
| Vandalite | bulmer: i'm almost done fixing it -- getting a software client error now | 06:49 |
| Shadow147 | hmm weird | 06:49 |
| Shadix | probably because Shadow is my nick on EFnet | 06:49 |
| Shadix | ;P | 06:49 |
| phoenix | hi | 06:49 |
| Shadow147 | well I have to go offline I will talk to ya all later | 06:49 |
| alyx | hey room i have a strange error | 06:49 |
| alyx | E: exalt-daemon: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 127 E: exalt: dependency problems - leaving unconfigured | 06:49 |
| alyx | any ideas? | 06:49 |
| phoenix | wow...finally the irc is working.. | 06:49 |
| === alyx is now known as Alyxander | ||
| n2diy | sethk:, yes, hyperlinks imbedded in emails etc... Had a hell of a time "trying to get that to work" with Ubuntu 5.10. Will it play with Opera? | 06:50 |
| jscinoz | My laptop has two headphone ports, with a previous version of alsa, i could use both at the same time, however now when i plug the first one in the second one is disabled, any idea how i can have it not do this? | 06:51 |
| Ademan | are there any alternatives to ipwalls? | 06:51 |
| Ademan | sorry | 06:51 |
| Ademan | firestarter* | 06:51 |
| Vandalite | bulmer: you wouldn't beleive what i just did | 06:51 |
| Wisteso | ubuntu doesn't have libdvdcss for use with vlc/gstreamer/xine? | 06:51 |
| ejandi | sethk, let me explain the problem further, when i boot my system, my desktop wall paper and the files on my desktop go blank just my mounted drives | 06:51 |
| bulmer | Vandalite-> tell telll am curious | 06:51 |
| Vandalite | i just tried telnetting to the server, and i got a (get this) command error dumped back to me | 06:51 |
| sethk | n2diy, I've never used opera for more than five minutes. It has never worked for me. Possibly I gave up on it too quickly ... | 06:51 |
| Vandalite | as if i ran it from console | 06:52 |
| ejandi | sethk, sometimes like now it boots normal | 06:52 |
| Ademan | Wisteso: you can install it by running sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread3/install-css.sh | 06:52 |
| === job is now known as monica | ||
| U11438 | I find GUI ADSL tool,knet ,thank | 06:52 |
| Wisteso | thanks ademan | 06:52 |
| sethk | ejandi, if it's intermittent I would run a memory test, because it sounds like hardware. | 06:52 |
| Ademan | Wisteso: libdvdcss is on very shaky legal grounds so they refuse to distribute it | 06:52 |
| Wisteso | ademan: so i hear | 06:52 |
| Nubbie | hey guys, i messed up trying to install the mac menu bar applet... i was just fooling around, and now my apt system is completely borked. can somebody help me fix this? | 06:52 |
| n2diy | sethk: Roger that, that is about as long as I have used it. My Windows friends love it, but it didn't do anything for me. | 06:52 |
| ejandi | sethk, my system specs is and acer 5610, duo core centrino..with intel graphics cardd | 06:53 |
| Nubbie | essentially by fixing my broken package, about 950 vital packages will have to be removed, which i am obviously not interested in doing. | 06:54 |
| sethk | ejandi, try running memtest86. Random behavior may well be caused by intermittent memory. Could also be caused by intermittent memory on the graphics card. | 06:54 |
| Vandalite | sigh, nevermind bulmer, it was a syntax error on my end. fixed it and the original problem returned. | 06:54 |
| bulmer | oh okay | 06:54 |
| Ademan | Wisteso: you probably want to make note of what you did though (installing libdvdcss that way) because i think it may cause conflicts during upgrades (possibly) and if/when you upgrade, removing libdvdcss2, upgrading, then running that command again SHOULD work | 06:54 |
| ejandi | from the start , before booting my system, it tells me can not find resource allocation 8 and 10 | 06:54 |
| sethk | ejandi, that's odd. I'm not sure what it specifically means, though. | 06:55 |
| ejandi | sethk, if it is the graphics card, pls wat do u suggest | 06:55 |
| sethk | ejandi, If practical, try another card as a test. These types of problems are extremely difficult to isolate. | 06:55 |
| Wisteso | ademan: alright. i'll make note | 06:56 |
| sethk | ejandi, replacing things until it works properly is about all you can do. | 06:56 |
| letha1 | i think the logout/switch user white screen problem happens because of compiz | 06:56 |
| letha1 | when i turn special effects off, i dont run into any white screen freezes on logout or user-switching | 06:57 |
| n2diy | sethk: ejandi, try your boot options, nodma, nopci, etc... And see if you can narrow it down. | 06:57 |
| sethk | letha1, that's possible; I've seen all sorts of reports of odd behavior with compiz and the latest release. | 06:57 |
| jimjam | Anyone know how to restrict a user's allowable disk space? As in, set a quota on how much disk he takes up? | 06:57 |
| Nubbie | can somebody please walk me through the steps of fixing a broken package without removing every single other package?? this is extremely frustrating, i've never had problems with apt before. | 06:57 |
| Muzik83 | I just discovered bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-system-tools/+bug/66051 was closed/fixed in feisty, but it seems to be back in gutsy. What do I do with the LP bug? Mark it as new and add a comment? | 06:57 |
| Nubbie | jimjam: i believe you can set quotas in the users/groups dialog... | 06:57 |
| letha1 | the compiz effects are amazing though, i really dont want to turn them off | 06:57 |
| k31th | Morning | 06:57 |
| jimjam | Nubbie: What package are you trying? | 06:57 |
| Nubbie | jimjam: basically to use this macmenu-applet, i had to install a patched version of libgtk2.0-0 among others | 06:58 |
| letha1 | the only other odd problem is that after a couple days, nautilus goes nuts and won't allow me to view any folders on my computer | 06:58 |
| Ademan | anyone know a way to make stderr be a different color from stdout? | 06:58 |
| jimjam | Nubbie: Did you get it from the repo? | 06:58 |
| Nubbie | jimjam: no. | 06:59 |
| n2diy | jimjam: only allocate XX megs to is directory? | 06:59 |
| n2diy | *is/his | 06:59 |
| Wisteso | ademan: working great. had to reinsert/remount the dvd though | 06:59 |
| jimjam | n2diy: I was thinking a separate /home/~user~ partition of a fixed size | 06:59 |
| Ademan | Wisteso: ah, well glad it worked | 06:59 |
| jimjam | Nubbie: How is it broken? | 07:00 |
| n2diy | jimjam: yes, so was I. | 07:00 |
| Wisteso | ademan: thanks again | 07:00 |
| Ademan | no problem at all, glad i could help | 07:00 |
| jimjam | n2diy: Thanks for confirming that. :) | 07:00 |
| Nubbie | jimjam: i am trying to downgrade from the unofficial patched version back to the reposity (gutsy) version. | 07:00 |
| jimjam | Nubbie: You'll want the command < sudo apt-get remove ~packagename~ > | 07:01 |
| PinkFloyd | Is there anyway in the Compiz Custom Effects to have a different wallpaper on each face of the cube? | 07:01 |
| Nubbie | jimjam: by doing that, it removes every single package which depends on GTK. | 07:01 |
| n2diy | jimjam: Not sure how to go about it though, I guess you would have to plan it before the install, or play with re-formatting afterwards? | 07:01 |
| letha1 | i think there is a package that allows you to have different wallpapers on each workspace | 07:02 |
| letha1 | i think its called wallpapoz | 07:02 |
| jscinoz_ | Hey guys, whenever any application tries to output audio via alsa, the application freezes. Every application i've tested this with has given no extra terminal output. what can i do to fix this? | 07:02 |
| jimjam | n2diy: I'm a repartition master. This compy used to have Vista/Ubuntu each on their own drive, and I've since removed Vista. Not fun, let me tell you. | 07:02 |
| ejandi | n2diy, i dont really understand by trying my boot options to nodma, nopci, etc | 07:03 |
| ejandi | n2diy : pls explain further | 07:03 |
| n2diy | jimjam: I believe that, I wish I had a /home partion. | 07:03 |
| rlount | Ademan, you could make a fancy .vimrc file and shopt out bash binding to vim. (gusessing) other than that there might be some .bashrc hack somewhere. I am curious and will look in my bash book even. | 07:03 |
| goban_ | whats the script to restart networking | 07:03 |
| jscinoz_ | goban_ sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart | 07:04 |
| phaedra | goban_, sudo /etc/networking/restart | 07:04 |
| gandhii | just trying out compiz now... for some reason my menu bars of my windows have all disapeared.. how do i get them back? | 07:04 |
| phaedra | goban_, sudo /etc/init.d/networking/restart .... | 07:04 |
| n2diy | ejandi: When you boot from the CD, you are offered options via the F2, F3... etc, keys, explore them. | 07:04 |

| letha1 | http://www.getdeb.net/search.php?keywords=wallpapoz | 07:05 |
| gandhii | ? | 07:05 |
| Ademan | rlount: haha that sounds pretty fancy, and thanks for looking, i love vim, but i don't want to interact with bash through vim all the time lol | 07:05 |
| Nubbie | jimjam: do you have any suggestions for me? | 07:05 |
| PinkFloyd | gandhii run this command: sudo nvidia-xconfig --add-argb-glx-visuals | 07:05 |
| letha1 | multiple wallpapers for different workspaces | 07:05 |
| n2diy | jimjam: roger thanks, will go look at them. | 07:05 |
| ejandi | n2diy: am i going to solve the problem from the cd or from wat u are saying i shld reformat | 07:06 |
| PinkFloyd | gandhii and then restart X | 07:06 |
| jimjam | Nubbie: Try installing the package over it | 07:06 |
| n2diy | ejandi: Reboot from the CD anyway, and see if you can get something to work, then you may have to re-install? | 07:06 |
| rlount | Ademan, yeah, I hear you. I dabble w/ vim bindings sometimes but my boss gets it on. Really cool actually. | 07:06 |
| jimjam | Nubbie: sudo apt-get install ~packagename~ | 07:06 |
| PinkFloyd | Is there anyway I can put a different wallpaper on each side of the Desktop Effects cube? | 07:06 |
| * rlount is looking in bash book | 07:06 | |
| jimjam | Nubbie: Or start Synaptic, select the package and use the "Force Version" option. | 07:07 |
| n2diy | ejandi: no, don't reformat yet, you might be able to save your current install. | 07:07 |
| jimjam | Nubbie: Or sudo apt-get install exactnameandversionofpackage | 07:07 |
| gandhii | pink: what does that do? i allready got those drivers installed.. | 07:07 |
| jimjam | Nubbie: That last one is an elaboration of sudo apt-get install ~packagename~ | 07:07 |
| Nubbie | jimjam: yes, but that would REMOVE every single package this unofficial version depends on. ie: every single GTK program. i've tried the forceversion method, and it tries to remove everything (including synaptic) | 07:07 |
| ejandi | n2diy: sorry to bother u much but how? | 07:07 |
| PinkFloyd | gandhii it fixes the borders. I just enabled effects also and someone said to use that command. Fixed it for me | 07:07 |
| Ademan | rlount: i was thinking, i dunno if that would be a function of the shell, or the terminal though, since i'm pretty sure the terminal is responsible for much of thecoloring, unfortunately the gnome-terminal docs are sparse at best though | 07:07 |
| gandhii | ah.. thanks.. i think i get it | 07:08 |
| gandhii | exit | 07:08 |
| sylverfox | hi, how can i exclude Floddy disk, from the Nautilus Places panel? i tried already the gconf-editor, but couldn't find it there | 07:08 |
| n2diy | ejandi: one step at a time, see if you can find the boot parameters that work for, take note of them, and then you go to the next step. | 07:08 |
| === job is now known as viana | ||
| ejandi | n2diy : how to get to u maybe via email so .tanx | 07:09 |
| ^Phantom^ | wow | 07:09 |
| ^Phantom^ | this is so COOL! | 07:09 |
| ^Phantom^ | ^_^ | 07:09 |
| Nubbie | jimjam: even trying to reinstall the package, it still tries to remove all of those 950+ other packages. | 07:09 |
| ^Phantom^ | this is my first time ever using linux | 07:10 |
| rlount | Ademan, well, stdin & stdout are weird sometimes. I was messing w/ the time command today and trying to redirect w/ 1>2& and getting totally unpredicable behavior of stdout. | 07:10 |
| ^Phantom^ | It's so simple compared to Windows! | 07:10 |
| PinkFloyd | ^Phantom^ indeed | 07:10 |
| goodhabit | Hello. @ my Ubuntu installation proprietary driver doesn't work. Maybe somebody know smth about this problem? | 07:10 |
| ejandi | phantom: um | 07:10 |
| sylverfox | ^Phantom^ have fun | 07:10 |
| n2diy | ejandi: you don't, we keep it here, so everyone can share the knowledge. Take notes, so you can describe what you have done, so the next volunteer can help you. | 07:10 |
| ^Phantom^ | I'm using the live cd right now | 07:10 |
| ejandi | n2diy : thanks | 07:11 |
| ^Phantom^ | I would like to be able to dual-boot the two without first re-installing windows | 07:11 |
| ^Phantom^ | Is that possible? | 07:11 |
| sylverfox | hi, how can i exclude Floddy disk, from the Nautilus Places panel? i tried already the gconf-editor, but couldn't find it there, please help me, i don't have a floppy disk-drive, so i don't need it | 07:11 |
| === PinkFloyd is now known as SunsparcSolaris | ||
| ejandi | Phantom: um | 07:11 |
| n2diy | ejandi: Good luck. | 07:11 |
| letha1 | if you dont really want to see the the floppy disk or use it, you could always just comment it out in /etc/fstab | 07:11 |
| goodhabit | ejandi: Can you repeat your question? ^) | 07:11 |
| n2diy | jimjam: good stuff, hope it works with Dapper, and I have to back up first, thanks. | 07:12 |
| rlount | Ademan, check out man setterm | 07:12 |
| sylverfox | ^Phantom^: you have to install first Windows and just after that linux | 07:12 |
| jimjam | Nubbie: Hmmm.... this is beyond my knowledge | 07:12 |
| ejandi | goodhabit: wen eva i boot my system, my desktop crashes ,..aspa my wallpaper and files i have on my desktop disappear | 07:12 |
| jimjam | Nubbie: I'd ask again in 12 hours | 07:12 |
| Ademan | rlount: awesome thanks | 07:12 |
| ^Phantom^ | So, I'd have to re-install Windows, then install Linux immediately after? | 07:13 |
| === ddrp is now known as D_ReaL_PuNiShEr | ||
| bazhang | ^Phantom^: what are you trying to do? dual boot? | 07:13 |
| ^Phantom^ | Yeah, just want to dual-boot. | 07:13 |
| goodhabit | ejandi: I cannot understand some of your words, sorry, but i think I understood right the main way :) Is that problem with Gutsy Gibbon? | 07:13 |
| ^Phantom^ | :) | 07:13 |
| mautinka | haloo | 07:13 |
| bazhang | ^Phantom^: do you have a system installed already? | 07:14 |
| ejandi | goodhabit: yeap! gutsy gibbon? | 07:14 |
| ^Phantom^ | Yep. :) | 07:14 |
| sylverfox | thanks letha1 | 07:14 |
| Nubbie | jimjam: i'm just going to remove all the packages, and reinstall ubuntu-desktop from a shell. | 07:14 |
| goodhabit | ejandi: Are you asking or answering? | 07:14 |
| Nubbie | jimjam: i'll let you know how it goes :o | 07:14 |
| SunsparcSolaris | Nubbie what are you trying to do? | 07:14 |
| sylverfox | how could i update my Pidgin 2.2.1 to the new 2.3.0 version? | 07:14 |
| jimjam | Nubbie: Back up before you do! | 07:14 |
| bazhang | ^Phantom^: need any help? more precise answers would help me help you :} | 07:14 |
| ejandi | goodhabit: i am asking for answering and solution. sorry i put a question mark on my gutsy gibbon | 07:14 |

| ^Phantom^ | I already have Windows XP installed. | 07:15 |
| Nubbie | jimjam: i'm no idiot lol i have my /home on a separate partition. i've been burned before. | 07:15 |
| ^Phantom^ | (I will NEVER use Vista) | 07:15 |
| SunsparcSolaris | sylverfox compile from source or wait for ubuntu to release it | 07:15 |
| jimjam | Nubbie: Then you're set. | 07:15 |
| rlount | Ademan, hope it helps. I'm now interested. There is an app called ccze for log output too. Just thought of that, we use it at work on a couple of machines. | 07:15 |
| bazhang | ^Phantom^: you good then--no questions? | 07:15 |
| Ademan | rlount: i'll check that out too, thanks | 07:15 |
| sylverfox | SunsparcSolaris: Which is the best choice about you? | 07:16 |
| goodhabit | ejandi: Your problem is a huge gdm bug, and it seems not fixable for now. Sounds bad, but you cannot fix it. You have a chance with re-installing & updaring/upgrading your system. Some huge bugs was released because of fixed releases time. | 07:16 |
| JJtech | if my nick name is stuck here at irc, how can i disconnect my log-in name via remote? | 07:16 |
| rlount | Ademan, np. welcome. now, do I sleep or continue on w/ systemimager ;) | 07:16 |
| SunsparcSolaris | sylverfox Id advise just waiting. Nothing is new in the newer version of Pidgin | 07:17 |
| SunsparcSolaris | sylverfox mainly Windows fixes | 07:17 |
| sylverfox | SunsparcSolaris: thanks | 07:17 |
| Nubbie | SunsparcSolaris: essentially i was fooling around trying to install the macbar applet, which involves installing patched libgtk2.0-0 and other packages. my problem is downgrading from that patched version to the repository (gutsy) version without removing every single package which depended on gtk lol. | 07:17 |

| simion314 | hi, i want t o integrate katapult in gnome, i need to find a method to launch it,to set a key cobination, can you help me? | 07:17 |
| SunsparcSolaris | Nubbie seems like you have quite a problem on your hands ;) | 07:17 |
| n2diy | JJtech: do you just want to change your nickname? | 07:17 |
| Nubbie | SunsparcSolaris: but i'm biting the bullet lol. i'll fix this up, and i'll be in good shape. | 07:17 |
| Ademan | rlount: lol, sleep, i probably should too, but i know i won't, and then i'll regret it tomorow morning when i'm tired off my ass | 07:17 |
| SunsparcSolaris | simion314 look under keyboard shortcuts | 07:18 |
| Nubbie | SunsparcSolaris: as long as i keep some stuff in memory i'll be fine :D | 07:18 |
| SunsparcSolaris | Nubbie I personally wouldnt do it | 07:18 |
| SunsparcSolaris | Nubbie Im lazy lol | 07:18 |
| Nubbie | SunsparcSolaris: ehhh lol | 07:18 |
| jscinoz | Where does rhytmbox store its configuration? i can't find any hidden folders in my homedir that include rhytmbox | 07:18 |
| Nubbie | SunsparcSolaris: my NetworkManager was the first to die :D big surprise there hurrr hurr hurr | 07:19 |
| n2diy | jscinoz: try "locat rhytmbox" | 07:19 |
| SunsparcSolaris | Nubbie well it happens | 07:19 |
| punzada | I'm pretty sure my tv card is dead :( | 07:19 |
| Nubbie | SunsparcSolaris: network manager dies on me about 5 times a day. | 07:19 |
| SunsparcSolaris | Nubbie glad I dont have that problem, Id die >_> | 07:19 |
| rlount | Ademan, heh. Good times indeed. | 07:20 |
| punzada | I've heard so many horror stories about network manager and I've never had any personal experiences | 07:20 |
| Nubbie | SunsparcSolaris: as long as i don't close synaptic, i'll be fine. | 07:20 |
| In_Silico | Can anyone help me with getting beryl installed? I can't seem to find it anywhere... | 07:20 |
| punzada | only problem i had was that it would attach to this one router at my friends house but not let me access the web | 07:20 |
| punzada | it was odd | 07:20 |
| SunsparcSolaris | In_Silico why beryl? | 07:20 |
| Ademan | punzada: hrm? network manager is a beautiful thing, i had one problem with it in gutsy(which has been fixed and it works perfectly now) but otherwise it's been fine | 07:20 |
| In_Silico | because I want to install beryl... | 07:20 |
| bazhang | In_Silico: in gutsy? | 07:21 |
| In_Silico | 7.10 whatever that is | 07:21 |
| Ademan | In_Silico: beryl has re-merged with compiz, it's now called compiz-fusion and is included by default in gutsy | 07:21 |
| bazhang | In_Silico: it has been merged with compiz is now compiz-fusion | 07:21 |
| punzada | lol | 07:21 |
| bazhang | wow fast | 07:21 |
| In_Silico | huh, that's sorta what I thought | 07:21 |
| Ademan | yeah i guess it's not a "re-merge" lol | 07:21 |
| In_Silico | I couldn't find it anymore | 07:21 |
| punzada | just install um | 07:21 |
| punzada | compiz-settings-manager | 07:22 |
| punzada | i believe is the package name | 07:22 |
| In_Silico | I guess I just need to figure out how to set it up how I want it then. | 07:22 |
| punzada | and you can do all the fun stuff, plugins etc etc | 07:22 |
| bazhang | compizconfig-settings-manager compiz In_Silico | 07:22 |
| punzada | I love my cube, i couldn't work without my cube ;/ | 07:22 |
| SunsparcSolaris | punzada I just discovered the cube, got a new gfx card | 07:22 |
| Ademan | the nvidia driver that comes with gutsy doesn't like my card... :-( | 07:22 |
| bazhang | In_Silico: sudo apt-get install those | 07:23 |
| In_Silico | bazhang, what do I need to feed apt to get it? all of that? | 07:23 |
| SunsparcSolaris | Ademan then install a new driver | 07:23 |
| punzada | when it doesn't tax your system, it's amazing for productivity | 07:23 |
| punzada | granted, i guess its not that much different from regular multi desktop | 07:23 |
| punzada | but it lays it out visually much nicer | 07:23 |
| bazhang | In_Silico: what I listed above it will pull in the other packages | 07:23 |
| punzada | if you have to juggle a lot of apps at once | 07:23 |
| Ademan | SunsparcSolaris: eh, it works well enough, i'd rather use a crappy driver and not have to recompile the kernel module every time i get a new kernel | 07:23 |
| punzada | (i do for work, many web pages, chat apps, vm's) | 07:23 |
| SunsparcSolaris | punzada Im running an old Gateway P3 450Mhz with ~300MB of RAM and it works smoothly | 07:23 |
| punzada | it's great for me :) | 07:23 |
| goodhabit | Ademan: What card you have and what driver are you installed? | 07:23 |
| simion314 | hi again, the katapult is running in background but how can i make it appear when i press alt+space? any ideea? i can't find in katapult configuration nothing about this | 07:23 |
| punzada | really? must have a decent videocard, it barely runs on my laptop (1.4ghz, 512 ram onboard intel video) | 07:24 |
| punzada | it runs I guess but not hardly as smooth as my desktop | 07:24 |
| In_Silico | ok, those are installed now. what do I need to do to launch the manager? | 07:24 |
| mautinka | please help me. how can i change server to connect? | 07:24 |
| SunsparcSolaris | punzada Nvidia GeForce 5200 FX | 07:24 |
| bazhang | is katapult in ubuntu simion314 thought it was kde/kubuntu | 07:24 |
| mautinka | i use xchat | 07:24 |
| gandhii | SunsparcSolaris: didn't seem to work ;[ | 07:25 |
| SunsparcSolaris | mautinka /server new.server.here | 07:25 |
| SunsparcSolaris | gandhii you restarted X? | 07:25 |
| jscinoz | Where does rhytmbox store its configuration? i can't find any hidden folders in my homedir that include rhytmbox | 07:25 |
| punzada | In_Silico, system->prefernces->advanced desktop effects settings | 07:25 |
| gandhii | yea | 07:25 |
| mautinka | SunsparcSolaris: thank you very much | 07:25 |
| bazhang | In_Silico: with the correct drivers for your card as well then alt-f2 compiz --replace | 07:25 |
| gandhii | actually just rebooted.. | 07:25 |
| Ademan | goodhabit: geforce go 6600 and whatever driver is in nvidia-glx-new | 07:25 |
| SunsparcSolaris | gandhii odd. It worked for me | 07:25 |
| SunsparcSolaris | Ademan install a binary from Nvidia's website | 07:26 |
| In_Silico | freakin' sweet | 07:26 |
| ddalton | Hi, I am booting debian at the minute. I want to dual boot debian and ubuntu. I don't want to boot windows and I don't haveit anyway. | 07:26 |
| jhoc2x2 | !reg | 07:26 |
| ddalton | can the ubuntu installer handle the partitioning for me? | 07:26 |
| MatthewV | jscinoz, in ~/.gnome2/rhythmbox/ | 07:26 |
| goodhabit | Ademan: Really from Nvidia website? | 07:26 |
| goodhabit | ^) | 07:26 |
| jscinoz | thanks | 07:26 |
| ejandi | goodhabit: thanks but this is the third time i am reinstalling my operating system and i have updated my softwares | 07:26 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about reg - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 07:26 |
| gandhii | hm.. gotta get some sleep.. I'll do some googlin on it another day | 07:26 |
| punzada | ddalton, I don't see any reason why not. | 07:26 |
| gandhii | gnite | 07:26 |
| Ademan | goodhabit: no, it's really ok, it works well enough, and its more convenient this way anyways | 07:26 |
| bazhang | goodhabit: the drivers in the repos should work--what card? nvidia? | 07:26 |
| goodhabit | ejandi: As I wrote, this is a bug. And it is not fixable. | 07:27 |
| ddalton | punzada: and is there anything i should do before I run the installer? | 07:27 |
| bazhang | ddalton: back up :} | 07:27 |
| ddalton | bazhang: of course | 07:27 |
| punzada | just think ahead about how you want to setup your partitions so you're not trying to figure everything else staring blankly at the installer like i always do :) | 07:27 |
| GOLD_X_X | hello all | 07:27 |
| ddalton | so I should be right? no mucking around with defragers or partition stuff on other disks? | 07:27 |
| bazhang | ddalton: apart from that no--the installer will ask to resize your debian install | 07:27 |
| goodhabit | bazhang: Actually, the repos drivers are exactly match with nvidia sites, difference - "right" installation through ubuntu packaging system. | 07:27 |
| jscinoz | Rhythmbox is crashing on startup, it still happens if i remove its configuration from ~/.gnome2/rhythmbox. It gives no terminal output what so ever. Finally, this doesnt happen if i run it as root, what is causing this and how can i fix it? | 07:28 |
| ddalton | ok how should I set them up. I want 4 gb for each. | 07:28 |
| ddalton | and whats the swop all about | 07:28 |
| ddalton | I want 4 gb for ubuntu and 4 for debian | 07:28 |
| punzada | how big is hard drive and how big is your ram? | 07:28 |
| Nubbie | SunsparcSolaris: a funny thing happened just then ;) | 07:28 |
| SunsparcSolaris | Nubbie ? | 07:28 |
| ddalton | 256 mb ram and 8 or 10 gb | 07:28 |
| punzada | hmm, can two linux installs share the same swap space? | 07:29 |
| ddalton | but I will use my external for files | 07:29 |
| punzada | I really never even thought of that | 07:29 |
| Nubbie | SunsparcSolaris: i'm on the livecd :l | 07:29 |
| bazhang | goodhabit: whatever you are more comfy with--the repos worked for my nvidia card :} | 07:29 |
| MatthewV | punzada, yes they can ;) | 07:29 |
| goodhabit | ejandi: 1 intresting issue - when ubuntu was released, there war your bug. But when ubuntu shipped cd arrived to my friend, looks like it was without this bug. | 07:29 |
| SunsparcSolaris | Nubbie uh lol? | 07:29 |
| Peddy | My CPU Temperature is reading as 77 degrees in my BIOS. Is this too hot? | 07:29 |
| Nubbie | SunsparcSolaris: reinstalling 8D | 07:29 |
| robc4 | celcuis? | 07:29 |
| * ddalton Would think so | 07:29 | |
| Peddy | celsuis | 07:29 |
| punzada | ddalton, then you will want to setup a 512MB swap partition, and then the 2 other partitions | 07:29 |
| Peddy | sorry :p | 07:29 |
| punzada | split evenly if you want | 07:29 |
| ddalton | ok so a total of 3 partitions. | 07:30 |
| robc4 | what CPU is it? | 07:30 |
| punzada | well, they'll have you set up the other partitions typically first | 07:30 |
| goodhabit | bazhang: Sorry? | 07:30 |
| punzada | then the swap | 07:30 |
| ddalton | how do I tell it which one is "swop" | 07:30 |
| Nubbie | Peddy: thats mighty hot, i'd be very worried about that. | 07:30 |
| In_Silico | man, that compizconfig manager is badass | 07:30 |
| ejandi | goodhabit: should i wait for the shipped cd cos the one i am using was downloaded | 07:30 |
| ozzloy | after upgrading to 7.10, Xorg keeps locking up my cpu after some idle time | 07:30 |
| ozzloy | howdoi fixit? | 07:30 |
| jet_ | to hot | 07:30 |
| SunsparcSolaris | Does anyone have experience with putting Ubuntu on an HP desktop? I tried to put it on my friend's desktop but it wont boot up correctly afterwards. I even stuck my Ubuntu HD in it and it wouldnt boot. | 07:30 |
| Peddy | fisk | 07:30 |
| punzada | the install will ask you for the swap partition, you may have to format it as swap space in the partioer | 07:30 |
| Peddy | :o | 07:30 |
| punzada | partitioner* | 07:30 |
| ddalton | right | 07:30 |
| ddalton | thanks. | 07:30 |
| Peddy | can I check the temp from Ubuntu? my bios may be incorrect. | 07:30 |
| bazhang | goodhabit: I'd recommend the repos--otherwise when the new drivers come out you will have to repeat | 07:31 |
| punzada | it's all pretty straight-forward, i'm working till 5AM est so i'll be around here if you need any more help just ping my name :) | 07:31 |
| punzada | lol | 07:31 |
| Peddy | Nubbie: is there a way to check the temp from Ubuntu? | 07:31 |
| MatthewV | Peddy, they both read from the same sensors, so i dont think you'd see anything different | 07:31 |
| MatthewV | there are ways though ;) | 07:31 |
| ddalton | BTW would someone be able to help me with the install once I get it booted? if so could you join #ubuntu-ddalton? | 07:31 |
| ddalton | because im blind and this is hard to follow | 07:31 |
| rlount | Peddy, gkrellm has some good sensor plugins. | 07:31 |
| === hoxmeade is now known as SAKURA | ||
| goodhabit | ejandi: I don't know what actually you must do. I'm just sharing with my knowledge. :) If you are interested of my advice - don't use GNOME as DE, use KDE, and think about Kubuntu or other distro. | 07:32 |
| punzada | would be nice if you joined the channel yourself ddalton :P | 07:32 |
| scguy318 | ddalton we're waiting :P | 07:32 |
| bazhang | ddalton: no worries--just highlight the persons name and they can see you | 07:32 |
| ddalton | yes | 07:32 |
| Peddy | rlount: my CPU usage percentage is really high (like 50%) | 07:32 |
| bazhang | haha | 07:32 |
| ejandi | goodhabit: tanx | 07:32 |
| rlount | Peddy, you are using top to scope this out? | 07:33 |
| tarelerulz | When you do lspci does what it put out really mean anything. Is the name right it puts out right. 02:00.0 0280: 14e4:4311 (rev 02) where does it get that informtion. ? just trying to find out what my wirless card is ? that is all | 07:33 |
| bazhang | tarelerulz: the key info is after the ID | 07:33 |
| Peddy | rlount: system monitor, CPU fire applet, AWN widget. | 07:34 |
| Peddy | rlount: what are the gkrellm plugins called? | 07:34 |
| taz_ | hi guys... when my computer to sleep when inactive...so i decide to using pc again and i try wake it up which one keyboard? | 07:34 |
| ozzloy | anyone? Xorg locks up after idle time. how do i diagnose? how do i fix? | 07:35 |
| n2diy | tarelerulz: yes, it is reading the ID(s) of the controller chips on the pci bus. | 07:35 |
| rlount | Peddy, ah. Are yo getting any specific process info? like which process is pulling the most mem or cpu? you can search for gkrellm in synaptic or just 'aptitude search gkrellm' | 07:35 |

| n2diy | Andycasss: Nada | 07:44 |

| momal | didnt' seem to get an answer in #kubuntu so i'll ask here. I am having a strange problem after i burn a dvd kubuntu wont auto mount a dvd/cd and i have to reboot for it to work. Then it will do the same thing after i burn a disc. any ideas? running kubuntu 7.10 | 07:44 |
| In_Silico | what the heck, it says desktop effects can not be enabled... | 07:44 |
| tronyx | either way there doesnt seem to be any traffic in or out of that port. i have 2 connections listed, one is listed as having ircd as the service/port and the other is one from to localhost on port 2207 | 07:44 |
| In_Silico | does anyone know where I can see the error info for why I can't enable the desktop effects? | 07:45 |
| shimete | anyone? | 07:46 |
| tronyx | any ideas mavi? | 07:46 |
| Nubbie | In_Silico: your computer doesn't have the necessary hardware or drivers installed to enable compiz. | 07:46 |
| n2diy | In_Silico: check your /var/log/ files. | 07:46 |
| MatthewV | shimete, did you try asking in the songbird irc channel? | 07:46 |
| pjeide | What is the best way to install the compiz-fusion-plugins-unofficial & unsupported in ubuntu? apt-get doesn't have a package like i've seen for other distros, that i can tell | 07:46 |
| In_Silico | n2diy, what am I looking for there? | 07:46 |
| shimete | matthewV, i didn't realise there was one. | 07:47 |
| n2diy | In_Silico: Errors!? :) | 07:47 |
| shimete | matthewv: do you know it it's on freenode? | 07:47 |
| MatthewV | shimete, see http://www.songbirdnest.com/community | 07:47 |
| MatthewV | shimete, no, its on irc.mozilla.org channel #songbird | 07:47 |
| In_Silico | I don't see anything labelled 'errors' anything in there | 07:47 |
| shimete | matthewv thanks | 07:47 |
| n2diy | In_Silico: You'll have to open the files to look for the errors. | 07:48 |
| In_Silico | all of the files...? | 07:48 |
| n2diy | In_Silico: The ones that seem to be relevant. | 07:48 |
| jsoft | Hmm, running ubuntu for the first time... | 07:49 |
| n2diy | In_Silico: Use the time stamps as a clue. | 07:49 |
| pjeide | jsoft: I remember you were playing around with the idea of it last night | 07:49 |
| pjeide | jsoft: What do you think? | 07:49 |
| goodhabit | Someone heared about doesn't-working proprietary driver manager? ) | 07:49 |
| rlount | jsoft: yeah, whats do you think? | 07:49 |
| melz | hi, I have gutsy, using firfox, there is no sound in flash ojbects eg. youtube and other flash things, anyone know how to fix?? | 07:49 |
| tokorona | I have a quick question. Where should a dumped core file from a segfault go? | 07:50 |
| NineTeen67Comet | Little question about my server .. Ubuntu 7.10 Server edition .. and it locks up randomly logged in or not .. If it sits, it locks up .. I changed out the hard drive the OS is on, re-installed on the newly installed hdd and it does the same thing .. Log files show nothing .. help? | 07:50 |
| tokorona | BEcause it's not in the directory the executable is in | 07:50 |
| jsoft | pjeide / rlount: its erm, yeah not too bad. Still just sussing it out though. Seems fairly polished, thought a little bloated ( mostly due to gnome ) | 07:51 |
| melz | NineTeen67Comet, maybe ur ram | 07:51 |
| In_Silico | nothing | 07:51 |
| In_Silico | what the heck | 07:51 |
| rlount | NineTeen67Comet, check yer memory. | 07:51 |
| melz | NineTeen67Comet, run memtest | 07:51 |
| tokorona | And yes, I have PAM set up to allow core files. | 07:51 |
| jsoft | So ubuntu does not come with nvidia drivers by default, right? As in the accellerated ones? | 07:51 |
| pjeide | jsoft: I like KDE thus far.. I installed Kubuntu, but you could always just snag kubuntu-desktop | 07:51 |
| pjeide | jsoft: no | 07:51 |
| pjeide | jsoft: what model card? | 07:51 |
| NineTeen67Comet | rlount: melz: I'll check'it .. I've only got one stick in there .. I'll see if one of my other boxes has the same ram .. | 07:51 |
| MatthewV | jsoft no, see the restricted drivers manager to enable usually | 07:52 |
| NineTeen67Comet | thanks for the direction .. | 07:52 |
| polduh | hi | 07:52 |
| melz | NineTeen67Comet, goodluck | 07:52 |
| jsoft | Ok. | 07:52 |
| jsoft | pjeide: its an 6800Ultra | 07:52 |
| NineTeen67Comet | melz: lol .. I hate bad RAM! | 07:52 |
| rlount | NineTeen67Comet, It sounds hardwarish. | 07:52 |
| pjeide | jsoft: apt-get install nvidia-glx-new | 07:52 |
| polduh | is it possible to install yahoo messenger to ubuntu? | 07:52 |
| pjeide | sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-new | 07:52 |
| pjeide | and then nvidia-settings | 07:52 |
| tokorona | .. n..evermind. | 07:52 |
| tokorona | WRong flag. | 07:52 |
| melz | polduh, use pidgin or gyachi | 07:52 |
| NineTeen67Comet | rlount: Yeah .. RAM might be the culprit .. is there a cli util to check temps? CPU fan is a little sketchy too I think .. | 07:52 |
| jsoft | sudo. Yeah first thing I done was sudo passwd | 07:53 |
| jsoft | I hate typing sudo all the tiem. | 07:53 |
| rlount | NineTeen67Comet, I use gkrellm. aptitude search gkrellm for a list of plugins | 07:53 |
| jsoft | pjeide: whatsd the nvidia-settings for? is it super required? or will things work ok without it? | 07:54 |
| NineTeen67Comet | rlount: I remember that being able to monitor remotely .. that'd work | 07:54 |
| polduh | wat are pdgin an gyachi? | 07:54 |
| polduh | are they can interfce to YM? | 07:54 |
| pjeide | jsoft: I don't think you want/need to super nvidia-settings | 07:54 |
| pjeide | jsoft: nvidia-settings is part of nvidia-glx-new | 07:54 |
| jsoft | Ok need to restart. | 07:54 |
| jsoft | Allright.. | 07:54 |
| * NineTeen67Comet pidgin is the replacement for Gaim and Gyachi is a VoIP utility | 07:54 | |
| scguy318 | polduh: Pidgin is a multi-protocol client which supports Yahoo | 07:54 |
| melz | polduh, yes that are yahoo chat clients | 07:54 |
| jsoft | reboot time. | 07:54 |
| rlount | NineTeen67Comet, yeah, it is nice on a lan, or w/ virtual machines for sure. Neat app. | 07:55 |
| scguy318 | polduh: GYachi is a more featureful Yahoo client | 07:55 |
| rlount | NineTeen67Comet, good luck troubleshooting. | 07:55 |
| NineTeen67Comet | rlount: U used it years ago, but never played with it via other boxes .. thanks for the idea .. off to "tinker". | 07:55 |
| polduh | is gyachi donwloadable? | 07:55 |
| melz | yes polduh there is a gutsy deb available | 07:55 |
| melz | polduh, http://gyachi.sourceforge.net/ | 07:56 |
| polduh | can u pls tel me how to donwload..can i download it with yum or apt-get? | 07:56 |
| scguy318 | polduh: yes | 07:56 |
| scguy318 | polduh: sudo apt-get install pidgin | 07:56 |
| polduh | melz: thank you so much | 07:56 |
| polduh | thanks | 07:56 |
| scguy318 | polduh: are you using Feisty? | 07:56 |
| melz | np | 07:56 |
| x0k`` | Gawd | 07:56 |
| scguy318 | polduh: because Gutsy should have it out of box | 07:56 |
| x0k`` | How long does it take 'Scanning the mirror' | 07:57 |
| scguy318 | polduh: if Feisty you're stuck with gaim, so you'll have to add a third party repo (http://repository.debuntu.org) for Pidgin | 07:57 |
| melz | x0k``, during install? | 07:57 |
| polduh | scguy318: no | 07:57 |
| scguy318 | polduh: or tarball install | 07:57 |
| x0k`` | Absolutely, melz | 07:57 |
| scguy318 | polduh: cool, you should already have Pidgin | 07:57 |

| jsoft | How do I turn that rubbish off? | 08:00 |
| x0k`` | melz, Will any extra configuration be required, since the apt configuration didn't complete properly I'm guessing? | 08:00 |

| Polysics | non-ubuntu related, but i know someone here knows :-) : is there any way to find out hte last known ip for a domain whose dns is dead? | 08:02 |
| gluonman | I'm trying to enter a command that will let me configure my laptop into a gateway for my desktop to connect to the internet. However, I can't get it to recognize that I'm root and give me permissions. The command is echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward . Any help? | 08:02 |
| jsoft | Polysics: perhaps.. whois, then investigate from there | 08:02 |
| n2diy | Polysics: log files? | 08:03 |
| MatthewV | gluonman, so you're running as root? not using sudo | 08:03 |
| x0k`` | You might be in luck if your ISP cache's, Polysics | 08:03 |
| pjeide | gluonman: prefix that with sudo | 08:03 |
| labinns1 | II was able to print to PDF in Edgy Eft and Feisty Fawn but despite attempting numerous "How tos" I am still unable to get it to work in Gutsy Gibbon. Can anyone help? | 08:03 |
| gluonman | pjeide, MatthewV, I tried prefixing it with sudo but it still denied me permission. | 08:03 |
| MatthewV | labinns1, print to PDF should be there by default in gutsy | 08:03 |
| Polysics | oops, whois gives no match for the domain | 08:04 |
| Polysics | might simply be the domain has expired? | 08:04 |
| MatthewV | gluonman, try running sudo -s to get to root user | 08:04 |
| MatthewV | and then that command | 08:04 |
| Polysics | gak, i just wanted to buy some stuff :-) | 08:04 |
| x0k`` | Polysics, notice me the domain | 08:04 |
| jsoft | meh @ sudo :/ | 08:04 |
| Polysics | x0k``, www.starcitygames.com | 08:04 |
| gluonman | MatthewV, okay. | 08:04 |
| Polysics | sudo -s is not a good idea :-) | 08:04 |
| pjeide | jsoft: if you run everything as root, as you may or may not have previously indicated, you may run into trouble | 08:05 |
| x0k`` | probably an expired domain | 08:05 |
| zetheroo | anyone? | 08:05 |
| labinns1 | I have tried printing pages to PDF but even though it looks like they are being printed, I cannot find them in the PDF directory. Are the being saved somewhere else? | 08:05 |

| MatthewV | ? | 08:16 |
| rlount | owen1_, forward port 80 outside to port 80 on the machine hosting the rails app. | 08:16 |
| zetheroo | n2diy: yeah... I know where it is .. but how do I see a list of all the packages which are installed by Ubuntu Gutsy on first install? | 08:16 |
| gluonman | I try to install from the repositories but i just says that us.archives.ubuntu or whatever it is cannot be read from. | 08:16 |
| rlount | owen1_, er... 81 =) | 08:16 |
| labinns1 | MatthewV: Stumped me as well | 08:17 |
| zetheroo | n2diy: reason is that I think I uninstalled a package which I should not have | 08:17 |
| owen1_ | rlount: is it port forwarding? | 08:17 |
| MatthewV | labinns1, yeh i found mine in ~/PDF/ so its possible there's something strange set for you... i'm looking now | 08:17 |
| rlount | owen1_, most routers have a page to allow port forwarding... heh yeah. | 08:17 |
| n2diy | zetheroo: Don't know, I'm running Dapper. Just re-install your app with Synaptic, and it should grab the missing package. | 08:17 |
| === Kwitschibo_ is now known as Kwitschibo | ||
| owen1_ | rlount: i have port forward and port trigger. which one? | 08:18 |
| zetheroo | n2diy: I am not sure which package it was which I should not have installed... I uninstalled a number of them | 08:18 |
| rlount | owen1_, so first port (outside) to ip addr and 2nd port (inside) port forward. | 08:18 |
| gluonman | HELLO? Does anyone know why I can't install anything from the repositories? It says "Could not resolve 'us.archive.ubuntu.com'... unable to fetch some archives..." | 08:19 |
| rlount | owen1_, port triggering is a type of security thru obscurity access control. | 08:19 |
| zetheroo | n2diy: actually all I need to know is which package deals with sound capture in Ubuntu | 08:19 |
| posingaspopular | question: how do i exit a man page once i do 'man foo'? | 08:19 |
| rlount | gluonman, can you ping us.archive.ubuntu.com? | 08:20 |
| owen1_ | rlount: i have starting port, ending port and ip address. | 08:20 |
| gluonman | rlount, I don't know. How do I do that? | 08:20 |
| rlount | posingaspopular, 'q' | 08:20 |
| owen1_ | rlount: start=80, end=81? | 08:20 |
| posingaspopular | thanks rlount | 08:20 |
| n2diy | zetheroo: Everyone should have a notebook, and keep track of what they do, so you can backtrack stuff like this. zetheroo, try reinstalling alsa? | 08:20 |
| labinns1 | MatthewV, Are you showing a virtual PDF printer in System>Administration>Printer? | 08:20 |
| owen1_ | rlount: ip address=192.168.0.2 (my static ip)? | 08:20 |
| rlount | owen1_, starting port = 81, ending port = 81 ip addr is the addr of the machine hosting the rails app. | 08:20 |
| thatguy | did you just say .. notebook like hand writeing...? | 08:21 |
| zetheroo | n2diy: ok will try | 08:21 |
| MatthewV | labinns1, yes... i can actually find the pdf's in /home/USER/PDF | 08:21 |
| n2diy | zetheroo: Good luck. | 08:21 |
| MatthewV | so i'm wondering why yours are not going there then.. | 08:21 |
| navreet | hi, can anyone know how to switch resolutions to 1280x720, the "ubuntu way"? I didn't see that resolution in generic lcd panels listed in system->admin->displays | 08:21 |
| rlount | owen1_, you can do the 80 to 81 thing if you like. you will pick up more bot traffic tho. | 08:21 |
| thatguy | sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 08:22 |
| rlount | owen1_, when you are happy that it's not going to get p0wned after a bit online then maybe make it 80 to 81. | 08:22 |
| thatguy | .... navreet... once you do that scroll down ... and find where it has the ress listed for 24 bit color... | 08:22 |
| labinns1 | MatthewV. Can you tell me what is the configuration of your PDF printer? | 08:22 |
| owen1_ | rlount: i did 81 to 81. and ip=192.168.1.1 | 08:23 |
| gluonman | rlount, what did you mean by ping us.archive.etc. | 08:23 |
| gluonman | ? | 08:23 |
| thatguy | and just ether add the ress you want... or replace one | 08:23 |
| thatguy | did you get that..? | 08:23 |
| owen1_ | rlount: what ip should i use to connect ? | 08:23 |
| MatthewV | labinns1, if you run the command cat /etc/cups/cups-pdf.conf | grep Out you should find a line (second for me) that reads Out ${HOME}/PDF or something like that | 08:23 |
| luddite | hey there people | 08:23 |
| rlount | gluonman, ping is a command that squirts icmp packets to hosts on a network. | 08:23 |
| MatthewV | thats the location they're being saved to | 08:23 |
| bullgard4 | Why is there besides the DEB program package 'sleepd' the package 'seepd-dbgsym'? What is a debugging symbol? | 08:23 |
| owen1_ | rlount: i googled for 'what is my ip' and tried to connect from my laptop. didn't work. | 08:24 |
| rlount | owen1_, is the rails app living on the .0.2 machine? | 08:24 |
| luddite | my ntfs and fat drives keep failing to appear on my gusty desktop. even though i have had them appear before | 08:24 |
| owen1_ | rlount: yes | 08:24 |
| navreet | thatguy, yes | 08:24 |
| navreet | thatguy, was hoping that wasn't hte "ubuntu way" | 08:24 |
| rlount | and 81 to 81 points to it? | 08:24 |
| owen1_ | rlount: yes | 08:24 |
| navreet | thatguy, but whatever.. I am going to give it a shot | 08:24 |
| navreet | brb | 08:24 |
| MatthewV | labinns1, any luck with that? | 08:24 |
| rlount | owen1_, maybe try restarting the router and make sure port 80 is open on your machine. firewall? | 08:25 |
| rlount | owen1_, sudo iptables -L should show anywhere 3 times. | 08:25 |
| owen1_ | rlount: let me try | 08:25 |
| thatguy | ....navreet... its the easyest way i found.... you go that way .. then just reboot and if you add it to the 24 bit list... ( if your using 24 bit color) it wil just add the ress option to your resize list... | 08:25 |
| === randomcommando_ is now known as randomcommando | ||
| labinns1 | MatthewV, found the exact thing you did but all files there are before my upgrade to Gutsy | 08:26 |
| thatguy | luddite, you need to setup to mout in your ftab.. do you know how to do that? | 08:26 |
| luddite | in my fstab i have all these UUID's but wtf are they for? | 08:26 |
| _6StringKng_ | sudo gedit /etc/fstab | 08:26 |
| MatthewV | labinns1, so what does that file read then? you went to terminal, ran that command, and you should have seen then where they were being saved to ? | 08:26 |
| luddite | yep thatguy - ive done all that | 08:27 |
| owen1_ | rlount: Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT) | 08:27 |
| rlount | gluonman, Applications > Accessories > Terminal | 08:27 |
| luddite | and they exist | 08:27 |

| owen1_ | rlount: yes. 3 time | 08:27 |
| _6StringKng_ | whats the difference | 08:27 |
| navreet | thatguy, yo | 08:27 |
| luddite | scguy318 : is it needed? | 08:27 |
| thatguy | luddite, well what i found is that if you dont have ntfs-3g ( or w/e the name is ) installed ntfs drives dont work right.. | 08:28 |
| labinns1 | MatthewV, Out ${HOME}/PDF | 08:28 |

| navreet | thatguy, I tried that... didn't work, edited the resolutions, left only 1280x720, but somehow I am still at 800x600 | 08:28 |
| luddite | i do have ntfs-3g. it came with my gusty install | 08:28 |

| _6StringKng_ | install ntfs-config | 08:28 |
| rlount | owen1_, lsof should return 80 LISTEN | 08:28 |
| MatthewV | but yeh that looks alright... so if they're not there than i really dont know :( | 08:29 |
| rlount | owen1_, sudo lsof -i :80 returned nothing? | 08:29 |
| owen1_ | rlount: no, nothing happend. don't forget that my nginx is on 81 | 08:29 |
| luddite | installing ntfs-config | 08:29 |
| thatguy | luddite... oks good.. now in your ftab... where it says vloume type .. where you tell it ethr fat, ntfs, bla bla bla... put the ntfs-3g... that fixed it.. for me.. | 08:29 |

| rlount | owen1_, but LISTEN is next to at least one? | 08:30 |
| luddite | thatguy - ok, ill check that | 08:30 |

| ubotu | tvade: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! | 08:51 |
| it-linux | scguy318 : I am using WINxx to chat so I can do it later. | 08:51 |
| rlount | Optimus110103, do you have cd burning software at you disposal? | 08:51 |
| Optimus110103 | do I need unzip the file? | 08:51 |
| rlount | s/you/your | 08:51 |
| thatguy | oks then you need a cd burning app... i sugest alex freemens iso burner... let me get you a link | 08:51 |
| scguy318 | it-linux: well, see this guide (gimme a moment) | 08:51 |
| Agent_bob | now! can anyone tell me how the devil this can have all caps in it ???? ( 5209 ? S 0:00 /USR/SBIN/CRON ) | 08:51 |
| gluonman | I'm trying to configure my laptop to act as a gateway for my desktop to connect to the internet through it. I followed the directions listed on this page (http://www.ubuntugeek.com/sharing-internet-connection-in-ubuntu.html) and then tried to connect my desktop using the same IP address but nothing happened and I'm still not connected. Any ideas? | 08:51 |
| it-linux | scguy318 : OKs | 08:51 |
| rlount | Optimus110103, no. Burn the .iso to disk as an image. | 08:51 |
| scguy318 | it-linux: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SetupNdiswrapperHowto | 08:51 |
| Optimus110103 | i allready burned it to a disk but I unziped it first | 08:51 |
| tvade | I have big problemo, my server has died on me, please help me out. When I start it the orange line stops at teh end and nothing happens. And when I do recovery it stops with lots of writing: Segmentation failed (Core dumped) | 08:52 |
| Optimus110103 | ah that must be my mistake | 08:52 |
| thatguy | http://isorecorder.alexfeinman.com/isorecorder.htm | 08:52 |
| livingdaylight | Optimus110103, who told you to unzip anything? | 08:52 |
| thatguy | thats what your gona need to put it on a disk.. | 08:52 |
| it-linux | scguy318 : Thank you I'll try it. | 08:52 |
| luddite | Agent_bob : i just used partition editor to mount it and it was successful | 08:52 |
| Optimus110103 | my machine did it automatically | 08:52 |
| luddite | it appears to have an error however | 08:52 |
| Optimus110103 | after the download | 08:52 |
| livingdaylight | Optimus110103, you only unzip if you gotta go... get my drift ^^ | 08:52 |
| luddite | so i should fix that in windows boot mode i guess | 08:52 |
| tarelerulz | Like I was saying thatguy If I may ask what did lspci say you wireless card was ? I if you imed me I did not get it | 08:52 |
| UstasW | sup? | 08:52 |
| Optimus110103 | ok | 08:53 |
| Optimus110103 | so | 08:53 |
| thatguy | oks optimus.. just make shur the file is still a .iso ... and then install this... http://isorecorder.alexfeinman.com/isorecorder.htm...and urn it with that | 08:53 |
| Vandalite | ok, i'm headed for bed. I'll return tomorrow to see whether gutsy will install on a PS3... | 08:53 |
| rlount | Optimus110103, yes, that would be your mistake ;) it won't boot if you scatter the iso. the burning software you are using, it should have an 'image' option. 'cd image' | 08:53 |
| gluonman | I'm trying to configure my laptop to act as a gateway for my desktop to connect to the internet through it.

Any ideas? | 08:53 |
| Optimus110103 | ok | 08:53 |
| Agent_bob | luddite might want to umount it and; sudo fsck.vfat /dev/<it's_device_node> | 08:53 |
| Optimus110103 | gotcha | 08:53 |
| tvade | gluonman: what is ur other pc? windows? | 08:53 |
| Optimus110103 | let me try that real quick | 08:53 |
| Optimus110103 | gimme three shakes | 08:53 |
| rlount | Optimus110103, point cd burning software to .iso file, select burn as image... ok | 08:54 |
| gluonman | tvade, both laptop and desktop are ubuntu 7.10 | 08:54 |
| |thunder | What the best app for capturing desktop video ? as in, screen cap video | 08:54 |
| Optimus110103 | doing that now | 08:54 |
| rlount | gluonman, is ip forwarding enabled on the gateway? | 08:54 |
| tvade | gluonman: well u need to setup ur iptables, ip forwarding | 08:54 |
| gluonman | rlount, I configured it to be. | 08:54 |
| gluonman | tvade, I followed all the instructions to do that on that link. | 08:54 |
| tvade | gluonman: u have static ip on main server? | 08:54 |
| thatguy | oks.. now who ever had the deal with the broadcom on a hp... i fix this by just installing the resitricted drivers... ubuntu 7.1 auto wraped them or w/e ... it works but it has issuses.. | 08:54 |
| scguy318 | thatguy: ndiswrapper is best way to rectify, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SetupNdiswrapperHowto | 08:55 |
| Agent_bob | anyone ? | 08:55 |
| Optimus110103 | thank you guys so much for helping me out | 08:55 |
| gluonman | tvade, I have my desktop network settings set to static IP. My laptop, which I'm trying to use as the gateway, connects to wireless via DHCP. | 08:55 |
| === PhilKC_ is now known as PhilKC | ||
| rlount | gluonman, what does 'cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward' return? a 1 or a 0? | 08:55 |
| gluonman | rlount, that returns a 0. | 08:56 |
| Optimus110103 | ill probably be gnawing your brains a bit more soon | 08:56 |
| rlount | Optimus110103, sure. is it burning away? | 08:56 |
| thatguy | see when i was in debian... i tryed the ndiswrapper.. way.. i didnt like it at all... plus ubuntu lets my hp audio buttons no other distro my media buttons work.. | 08:56 |
| gluonman | rlount, so I used echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward instead | 08:56 |
| tvade | gluonman: try making outside network dhcp; inside network static smt like 198.164.0.1 on main pc and no gateway | 08:56 |
| rlount | gluonman, sudo echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward | 08:56 |
| thatguy | its fine optimus... i know when i started well all of us started somwhere ass a noob.. | 08:56 |
| esox | does someone know how to remove a programm without tuching his dependencies ? | 08:56 |
| rlount | gluonman, without that no packet shall pass. | 08:56 |
| tvade | gluonman: on ur second pc ur gateway is 198.168.0.1 and static ip is smt different: 198.168.0.100 | 08:56 |
| Agent_bob | gluonman to make that sticky edit /etc/sys.ctl | 08:57 |
| Optimus110103 | I hope my machine will run it | 08:57 |
| === osfamero1 is now known as osfameron | ||
| Agent_bob | gluonman to make that sticky edit /etc/sysctl.conf sorry. | 08:57 |
| tvade | gluonman: and check that u hav DNS set up | 08:57 |
| rlount | gluonman, ok, now look at 'route' | 08:57 |
| Optimus110103 | does ubuntu run well on amd platforms | 08:57 |
| |thunder | Optimus110103; yep | 08:57 |
| gluonman | Agent_bob, when I add the line that enables IP forwarding to that conf. do I need to add a # before the line like most of the other lines are? | 08:58 |
| Agent_bob | Optimus110103 yeah | 08:58 |
| Optimus110103 | cool | 08:58 |
| tvade | Sory guys i have biiiig trouble, server does not launch. Says: Segmentation failed (core dumped) anyone knows how i can make repair? | 08:58 |
| gluonman | tvade, how do I check to see if I have DNS set up? | 08:58 |
| tarelerulz | I find with Ubuntu that you get 90% work working right out of the box and that last % is the one you end up working on for days . Take my Broadcom Corporation BCM94311MCG wlan mini-PCI (rev 02) I have been working on it for days. | 08:58 |
| Optimus110103 | this machine has been giving me all kinds af grief | 08:58 |
| Agent_bob | gluonman the line should already be there, just uncomment it by removing the # | 08:58 |
| thatguy | now optimus.. be warnded... if you have been usta xp for ever... then linux is a big hop... the file system is pretty differnt..and the way things are setup is a little differant.. if you know how to use command promt alittle bit then you should be able to work linux teminal... ( which is where you do most of your configuring)... linux is text bassed.. its just the x org gui has realy expanded latly ... with the adition of compiz every | 08:58 |
| tvade | gluonman : no u don't; first write sudo su: then u will be asked for password | 08:58 |
| tvade | gluonman: then all the command lines will automatically have # at the beginning | 08:59 |
| thatguy | oks now optimus.... i would like to ask you acouple of qestions about your machine.. cuz i had a sli pc that would act up too... | 08:59 |
| Optimus110103 | sure | 08:59 |
| thatguy | how long did you have xp installed befor the blue screen of death...? | 08:59 |
| four86 | not sure if this would make sense, but curious, can you convert a compact flash card (1gb) into additional ram? | 08:59 |
| Optimus110103 | about 4 days | 08:59 |
| jscinoz | Whenever any program at all tries to output sound over alsa, the program in question freezes, and gives no terminal output different from normal, this happens when programs are run both normally and as root so it isnt a permissions issue. What can i do? | 08:59 |
| Agent_bob | tvade wouldn't sudo -i or sudo su - be better ? both will give a root login shell rather than putting the user in a root shell in their user env no ? | 09:00 |
| tvade | gluonman: u go to Network tools and do check on the ip of ur provider (forgot how its called: thik its 2nd or 3rd tab from top | 09:00 |
| Optimus110103 | i shut down the machine all was well | 09:00 |
| thatguy | oks.. so that tells me that .. ( dont take this wrong) you are ether a porn adict and atract viruses ..... or you have a hardware issue ( 70% says hardware) | 09:00 |
| rlount | gluonman, the 192.168.0.2 network needs a default to the 192.168.0.1 network, so the machine behind the gateway needs to know about a. the gateway and then 2. that it goes to 0.0.0.0 | 09:00 |

| Optimus110103 | the file was windows root system32.hal.dll | 09:01 |
| rlount | gluonman, then once you know routing is working, should you look at dns. if routing is hosed you won't go anywhere. | 09:01 |
| thatguy | bad ram... or just a shorted somthing somewhere.. ( pretty rare)... normaly always between the hdd and ram and virus | 09:01 |

| thatguy | gluonman... is the ethernet cable a strait trew or cross over? | 09:06 |
| rlount | gluonman, heh. Ok man. routing first. then dns. the gateway needs to know what to do with the packets and the machine behind it nees to know where to send them. | 09:06 |
| gluonman | tvade, following that instructional, though, should I use that standard IP address or the IP address that appears in my Devices beside IPv4? | 09:06 |
| thatguy | .. oks now thats good.. i think i can rule down to what your problem is... | 09:06 |
| thatguy | did yo uhave raid 0 enabled.? | 09:07 |
| gluonman | thatguy, strait trew or cross over? | 09:07 |
| Optimus110103 | i didnt have a raid array enabled | 09:07 |

| thatguy | okes.. take both ends of the cable and hold them infront of you .. ( the little clips away from you )... now side by side.. one cable should be start ( on the left) .. with green ... and the other should start with ornge... ( thats a cross over.. thats what your gona wana use... if both sides start with green... then you have a strait trew... and thats for connecting a comptuer to a switch... or router.. | 09:11 |

| Optimus110103 | ok | 09:13 |
| Optimus110103 | im not having any luck | 09:13 |

| gluonman | thatguy, which end should go where? | 09:13 |
| gluonman | thatguy, or does it not matter? | 09:14 |
| thatguy | ... as long as its a cross over it dont matter.. see a cross over takes the green pair and crosses it with a ornge pair.. | 09:14 |
| rlount | gluonman, if they are GigE they are auto sense ports, older network cards will require a cross over. Ends don't matter. | 09:14 |

| abcent | Optimus110103: did the ISO extract correctly to CD? or does the CD contain the ISO file? | 09:16 |
| thatguy | ya to test the burn just put the cd in the compuer..if you get the pop ups and ubuntu stuff coming up.. then its a good burn | 09:16 |
| gluonman | rlount, it's an NTFS format hdd and mounted fine until recently I was writing files to it and my system froze during that process. Ever since I cannot mount it. | 09:17 |
| scguy318 | gluonman: run chkdsk on the NTFS partition | 09:17 |
| Agent_bob | thatguy if you use static ips it's pretty easy to transparently gateway a box i'm talking through a linux gateway as we speak. | 09:17 |
| EvaLuaTe | while trying to ping google i get this message: connect: No buffer space available. I searched the net and didn't find any solution to this problem (most relevant i think is a reply on a forum that says that "Either the socket buffer is full, or the interface's queue is full", although there is no solution for this). Could anyone please help me out ? | 09:17 |
| scguy318 | gluonman: or, if you're willing to risk it, do a forced mount | 09:17 |
| chazco | Hi... anyone know how to make Nautilus follow redirects (e.g. auto-move into a sub-directory when joining) when using FTP? | 09:18 |
| Optimus110103 | i get nothing when i put the disk in my computer and when i look at the disk it has just an icon looks like a disk and says | 09:18 |
| thatguy | agent bob.. yes i was about to mention that the ... comtpuer handing out the internet normaly needs to be 192.168.0.1 | 09:18 |
| Optimus110103 | the name and iso | 09:18 |
| gluonman | scguy318, what does the force mount potentially do to my files and how do you do that? | 09:18 |
| thatguy | oks optimus.. it was a bad burn | 09:18 |
| thatguy | ... what software did you use to burn the cd with | 09:18 |
| abcent | Optimus110103: LOL .... sorry, ok the ISO didn't extract to CD | 09:18 |
| Agent_bob | thatguy and ipmasq dnsmasq apps help too. | 09:18 |
| Optimus110103 | i just right clicked and sent the file to disk | 09:19 |
| abcent | Optimus110103: do you have NERO or ROXIO? | 09:19 |
| Optimus110103 | not on this machine | 09:19 |
| thatguy | agent bob.. ill be honest.. i dont know crap about servers exept for what i had to learn on windows ... i just downloaded ubuntu server ... and ive had a falowing with debian.. | 09:19 |
| Optimus110103 | i do on the other but thats kinda mute | 09:19 |
| gluonman | Agent_bob, http://www.ubuntugeek.com/sharing-internet-connection-in-ubuntu.html . Are those directions sound in your opinion? Should I get it to work with that? | 09:19 |
| thatguy | optimus use this software its the best for isos | 09:19 |
| thatguy | http://isorecorder.alexfeinman.com/isorecorder.htm | 09:19 |
| Optimus110103 | i do have the disk thogh | 09:19 |
| Optimus110103 | ok thanks | 09:20 |
| Agent_bob | Optimus110103 that sounds like you made a data disk and put the .iso file on the disk .... can't boot that. | 09:20 |
| gluonman | scguy318, about that force mount, will it likely hurt my files? | 09:20 |
| abcent | Optimus110103: Ok, you need to take the CD to some with that software to extraxt the contant to CD | 09:20 |
| thatguy | this will make all the iso have a unice icon.. then you just duble click and it will burn the iso .. REALY simple | 09:20 |
| thatguy | plus it works GREAT | 09:20 |
| tarelerulz | Have any of you compiled ndiswrapper 1.49 and try to remove what you install with synaptic and when you do ethtool -i on you wireless card is says some older version of ndiswrapper ? does that mean anything or is it just wrong? | 09:20 |

| esox | Agent_bob : if I use the -f-rce : it will remove everything no ? | 09:26 |
| erUSUL | tvade: i do not know of any *automatic* recovery. What is exactly the problem? | 09:26 |
| thatguy | is your cd burning optimus | 09:26 |
| Joshooa | Anybody good with wireless networks? I keep getting kicked off WoW and need help! | 09:27 |
| Agent_bob | esox dpkg doesn't remove dependancies. --force-all if needed | 09:27 |
| esox | agent_bob : how do you use the --force option ? | 09:27 |
| louist | can anybody help with fusion-icon and emerald? Nobody is in the compiz fusion channel. | 09:27 |
| thatguy | ummmm.. honestly it just sounds like your wireless ether has bad suport ( from drivers) or you have a bad wireless signal | 09:27 |
| tvade | erUSUL: server will not start: freezes on the orange progress line. and when i run recovery it stops with words like: segmentation fault (core dumped) | 09:27 |

| Optimus110103 | this has cost me 15 dollars in light scribe disks from burning bad disks | 09:29 |
| Agent_bob | esox and always read the error messages they are pretty streight forward and very helpful | 09:30 |
| esox | agent_bob : you are the best ! | 09:30 |
| tvade | erUSUL: but while trying to run Ubuntu seems like other computers have internet | 09:30 |
| Optimus110103 | well its burning heres to hoping | 09:30 |
| alumno_ | who are u talking about? | 09:30 |
| Agent_bob | esox yeah i know. but don't spread it around... :) | 09:30 |
| thatguy | lmao... ive been there man.. back when i didnt know what a iso was.. disk after disk.. till i found this iso recorder.. i sersly for cd swear by it.. if i have to burn a dvd.. i normaly boot a live disk... and use k3b | 09:30 |
| abcent | thatguy: I've never used it! If i need to burn a CD/DVD I use NERO or ROXIO | 09:30 |
| esox | agent_bob : no, the world has to know... | 09:30 |
| Agent_bob | lol | 09:30 |
| zero-1 | good evening, do any of you have experience with postfix/mysql? | 09:31 |
| zero-1 | I am currently having a problem with SMTP | 09:31 |
| esox | Agent_bob : thanks ! | 09:31 |
| zero-1 | the only thing my logs are showing is | 09:31 |
| Agent_bob | esox seriously though, you're welcome. | 09:31 |
| zero-1 | postfix/trivial-rewrite[7706]: fatal: mysql:/etc/postfix/mysql_alias.cf(0,lock|fold_fix): table lookup problem | 09:31 |
| Optimus110103 | i dont know what any of this is i just knw Joe told me to try ubuntu and see how i like it | 09:31 |
| Optimus110103 | he says its kinda like a mac os | 09:31 |
| thatguy | i tryed nero. back when i was into debian.. it would always give me bad burns.. so i tryed iso recoreder and then bam every one worked..so thats just what i use.. i know theres diff mabey even better software .. it just what i like .. its simplistic.. | 09:31 |
| zero-1 | I have checked that file but there is nothing wrong with it | 09:31 |
| thatguy | yes it kinda is... just becuase it uses the gnome desktop enviorment | 09:32 |
| chuxxsss | any one upgraded there ubuntu to 7.10 from 7.04 | 09:32 |
| Optimus110103 | i have a lot of learning to do | 09:32 |
| riotkittie | uh. | 09:32 |
| abcent | thatguy: I hear you there | 09:32 |
| Optimus110103 | i know windows pretty well | 09:32 |
| alumno_ | yeah | 09:32 |
| Optimus110103 | but this is just new | 09:32 |
| Agent_bob | Optimus110103 it will ruin you. if you get it installed and setup/running smooth. you'll never go back to windows, has happened to thousands "i'm one." | 09:33 |
| dgjones | chuxxsss, probably most people will have upgraded | 09:33 |
| alumno_ | windows is better than linux | 09:33 |
| abcent | Optimus110103: I'm a MS Beta tester | 09:33 |
| Joshooa | alumno_: windows is much much worse than linux | 09:33 |
| riotkittie | windows isnt better than linux. windows is different than linux, and windows is something you're likely more accustomed to. | 09:33 |
| thatguy | optimus.. belive it or not.. its harder to go from xp to linux.. then it is to just start using linux... the unix envorment once understood is SO MUCH SIMPLER... | 09:33 |
| luddite | Agent_bob : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/46067/ thats the output of my fssk.vfat | 09:33 |
| erUSUL | tvade: and changin keyboards again does not solve the issue? | 09:33 |
| thatguy | its just that learning curve that people give it a bad rep | 09:33 |
| Optimus110103 | i think better or worse is probably just a matter of apinion | 09:33 |
| Optimus110103 | am i right | 09:34 |
| Agent_bob | luddite looking. | 09:34 |
| luddite | thanks :-) | 09:34 |
| Joshooa | No Windows sucks that's about all t here is to it | 09:34 |
| riotkittie | Optimus110103: indeed. which is why i said "different". | 09:34 |
| thatguy | yes.. just like big trucks and small cars.. all option and persinal taste | 09:34 |
| Joshooa | It was just out to the general public and preinstalled first | 09:34 |
| abcent | thatguy: I can expect to see Optimus here more offen :) | 09:34 |
| Optimus110103 | most likely | 09:34 |
| Optimus110103 | i dont use irc not until i saw the thing on the ubuntu website for support here | 09:34 |
| chuxxsss | ok dgjones I have install a lot of stuff in 7.04 but I what to upgrade to 7.10 without loosing my servers and school work which way is best dgjones | 09:34 |
| Optimus110103 | now I think iwill be here a lot | 09:35 |
| thatguy | lol probley.. honestly i learned more from forms then from irc.. this is acutly my FIRST time using irc | 09:35 |
| Optimus110103 | well it just finished burning | 09:35 |
| thatguy | well once you get your disk runign and ubuntu runing you can use pidgin to talk on irc.. | 09:35 |
| erUSUL | !upgrade | chuxxsss | 09:35 |
| ubotu | chuxxsss: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes | 09:35 |
| Agent_bob | luddite nice... so you want to fix that from the M$ side of things ? or tell fsck to "Copy backup to original" ? | 09:35 |
| Optimus110103 | what say we go and pop it into the other machine | 09:35 |
| thatguy | oks now it should boot the cd.. | 09:35 |
| thatguy | yep | 09:35 |
| abcent | Optimus110103: I was using mIRC over 7 years ago .... this is very much the same | 09:35 |
| riotkittie | the forums are great for in depth answers, or when you dont need an immediate repsonse. and there are far better clients than pidgin <cringe> | 09:35 |
| Agent_bob | luddite and you can loose data either way. | 09:35 |
| luddite | Agent_bob im easy :-) | 09:36 |
| abcent | Optimus110103: Best of luck | 09:36 |
| Optimus110103 | brb im gonna go put the disk in the little black tray | 09:36 |
| tvade | erUSUL: no it didn't, i changed keyboard. Is there a line i can write that should update all software? maybe that could solve it? | 09:36 |
| dgjones | chuxxsss, make a backup of you /home first just to be on the safe side and then just use the option in synaptic to upgrade | 09:36 |
| luddite | which is the way of least resistance? | 09:36 |
| chuxxsss | thank you erUSUL and ubotu and Mr Jones :) | 09:36 |
| luddite | i can back it all up easily enough | 09:36 |

| dgjones | chuxxsss, as long as you've not used automatix or envy, its should upgrade ok | 09:37 |
| luddite | Agent_bob : ok - ill back it up first | 09:37 |
| erUSUL | tvade: no, it shouldn't just trying to get all the information | 09:37 |
| Agent_bob | luddite and while you do, i'll go hide just in case it blows chunks... ;/ | 09:37 |
| thatguy | sersly .. i dont like haveing all that open i love how gaim and pidgin are so compact.. and powerfull .. just like msn messanger its so big and cluncky | 09:37 |

| phoenix_ | 'lo | 09:39 |
| Agent_bob | thatguy you should point out that liveCD's are inhearantly slow/sluggish | 09:39 |
| thatguy | devenatly .. it just takes one or two open minds to push opensource... and to shake a world | 09:39 |
| Optimus110103 | lets just hope it works on my machine | 09:39 |
| luddite | esr : do this. sudo apt-get remove nvidia-glx then reboot then do sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx then reboot and x will be back to normal. do that at the x-server failed term prompt when it fails | 09:39 |
| tvade | Agent_bob: the recovery window, after it failed i write at the end | 09:39 |
| abcent | Optimus110103: it was all Thatguy's credit ... good work :) | 09:39 |

| jscinoz | Whenever any program at all tries to output sound over alsa, the program in question freezes, and gives no terminal output different from normal, this happens when programs are run both normally and as root so it isnt a permissions issue. What can i do? | 09:40 |
| Optimus110103 | well | 09:40 |
| luddite | Lumpy type firefox | 09:40 |
| Optimus110103 | you both helped a lot | 09:40 |

| thatguy | thnx i gess.. i honestly love helping out but like this irc is realy odd... | 09:40 |
| thatguy | i hate typing names every time.. | 09:40 |
| Optimus110103 | the little bar is bouncing back and forth | 09:40 |
| riotkittie | jscinoz: what do you need help with? | 09:40 |
| MatthewV | thatguy, just type the start and hit tab - works in most irc clients | 09:40 |
| Optimus110103 | dont type the name | 09:40 |

| abcent | thatguy: I click up, till name comes up :)) | 09:41 |
| thatguy | Optimus110103: lmao.. wow thats easy | 09:41 |
| jscinoz | riotkittie this: | 09:41 |
| jscinoz | Whenever any program at all tries to output sound over alsa, the program in question freezes, and gives no terminal output different from normal, this happens when programs are run both normally and as root so it isnt a permissions issue. What can i do? | 09:41 |
| thatguy | well thank you then! | 09:41 |
| Optimus110103 | np | 09:41 |
| Optimus110103 | the little orange bar is still bouncing back and forth | 09:41 |
| Optimus110103 | wait its loading | 09:42 |
| riotkittie | jscinoz: is this something that just started happening? new install or no? | 09:42 |
| Agent_bob | for password and login but it does not authenticate me anymore <<< can you be a little more specific ? where are you having this issue ? | 09:42 |
| jscinoz | Just started happening, had perfect alsa since gutsy tribe4 | 09:42 |
| thatguy | ya like agent bob said.. live disk are kinda dinky slow.. if it runs kinda good expect it to run good once installed.. because that delay from the cd is taken out | 09:42 |
| abcent | Optimus110103: Ha Ha the birth of a new Ubuntu | 09:42 |
| Agent_bob | err tvade ^ | 09:42 |
| riotkittie | jscinoz: any updates just before this started? | 09:42 |
| jscinoz | none thati know of | 09:42 |
| jscinoz | and icant recall changing anything alsa related | 09:43 |
| Optimus110103 | is the screen supposed to turn tan and start flashing random colors? | 09:43 |
| abcent | Optimus110103: yes | 09:43 |
| k31th | If i my subnet is 192.168.6.0/24 and my linux box has a eth adsl modem with the ip of 192.168.1.1 and i want to access it from computer on my lan, would i do "route add -net 192.168.1.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 dev eth0" eth0 being my wan interface (the modem is obv on the wan interface). | 09:43 |
| Agent_bob | flashing random colors??? | 09:43 |
| Optimus110103 | the graphics look all screwed up everything is digitized | 09:43 |
| riotkittie | jscinoz: hate to say this, but i have no idea :P | 09:43 |
| Optimus110103 | and phasing in and out | 09:43 |
| Optimus110103 | this can't be right | 09:44 |
| tvade | erUSUL: thanks i go try | 09:44 |
| zetheroo | I am looking for a Ubuntu pro ...... please contact me if you are one | 09:44 |

| gluonman | how do you force mount an external hdd? | 09:44 |
| Agent_bob | yeah that don't sound right. try the safe graphics mode. | 09:44 |

| Agent_bob | tvade err not you... | 09:44 |
| thatguy | siwtch the plugs.. if your pluged into the dvi.. move to the vga | 09:44 |
| Optimus110103 | it has vga dvi and svideo | 09:44 |
| Optimus110103 | im on vga | 09:44 |
| riotkittie | have you tried searching the forums to see if anyone with a similar sound device is having the same issue? | 09:44 |
| tafsen | How do I get xvid support to ffmpeg? | 09:44 |
| Agent_bob | tvade i need more info from you before i can answer you. | 09:45 |
| Optimus110103 | would my refresh rates be an issue | 09:45 |
| thatguy | ohs.. well i know when i have a montior pluged in both.. one works just fine and the other flickers... | 09:45 |
| jscinoz | woot i fixed it :D | 09:45 |
| abcent | Optimus110103: That should be o with Ubuntu | 09:45 |
| jscinoz | asoundconf fails... | 09:45 |
| thatguy | .. umm... when you move your mouse dose it seem to effect the screen? | 09:45 |
| abcent | Optimus110103: could be | 09:45 |
| jscinoz | i wiped out the config made by asoundconf and did it manually, works now | 09:45 |
| Optimus110103 | not at all i cant even see my mouse | 09:45 |
| Agent_bob | i hate it when four/five people all think that you are talking to them... then they get mad because what you say doesn't work. | 09:45 |
| riotkittie | yaaaay. | 09:45 |
| Optimus110103 | its just blocky colors | 09:45 |

| thatguy | from the boot screen | 09:46 |
| thatguy | hit ctl alt del | 09:46 |
| Agent_bob | optimus110103 yeah that don't sound right. try the safe graphics mode. | 09:46 |
| Agent_bob | MatthewV i have been. | 09:46 |
| Optimus110103 | gotcha | 09:46 |
| thatguy | thats odd normaly a namebrand card is always well suported | 09:46 |
| Optimus110103 | ill try safe mode | 09:47 |
| Agent_bob | safe grphics option at boot time. | 09:47 |
| abcent | thatguy: I agree there, I had no problem with two installs .... one high-end card, one low-end card | 09:47 |
| esr | luddite: I doubt that's it -- bith misbehaving systems have ATI cards and don't have nvidia-glx installed. | 09:47 |
| thatguy | normaly when my 5900 fx has dual montiors pluged in.. ( for xp ) and i boot to unix with one display the second montor ( normaly the one on the dvi to vga adaptor ) FLIPS out.. like with the colors and crap | 09:47 |
| riotkittie | what kind of atis? | 09:48 |
| Agent_bob | thatguy abcent i always have trubble if the chip is ati... never if nvidia or intel | 09:48 |
| MatthewV | thatguy, have you set both monitors up correctly using System --> Administration --> Screens and Graphics ? | 09:48 |
| abcent | thatguy: to which you would expect | 09:48 |
| abcent | Agent_bob we agree 110% | 09:49 |
| thatguy | lol.. same here.. nvidia is flawless for me.. now my freind swears by ati.. just he has had better time with ati then i have.. | 09:49 |
| Agent_bob | 10-4 | 09:49 |
| thatguy | i have no CLUE how to setup dual montiors.. cuz i set it up .. and test it..it works i hit save xorg.. and reboot .. and then xserver crashs.. so i replace the xorg with the backed up one..and gave up | 09:50 |
| thatguy | i did it like 4 times.. so i just give up with dual monitors on unix | 09:50 |
| Optimus110103 | ok | 09:50 |
| Optimus110103 | back to the bouncy bar | 09:50 |
| thatguy | lol | 09:50 |

| Agent_bob | Optimus110103 no | 09:53 |
| gluonman | How do you force mount an external hdd? | 09:53 |
| jscinoz | What does "Option "FastTLS" "2"" in xorg.conf do? | 09:53 |
| Agent_bob | !paste | Optimus110103 | 09:53 |
| ubotu | Optimus110103: 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) | 09:53 |
| Optimus110103 | its not that much | 09:54 |
| Optimus110103 | about twenty lines | 09:54 |
| thatguy | LMAO... | 09:54 |
| Optimus110103 | is that too much> | 09:54 |
| Optimus110103 | ? | 09:54 |
| riotkittie | sigh. that's obnoxious. | 09:54 |
| Agent_bob | you'll get kicked for 3 linse | 09:54 |
| Polis_ttt | zetheroo: yes, you need alsa | 09:54 |
| Agent_bob | lines even | 09:54 |
| Optimus110103 | oh btw it loaded its all pretty and purple swoopidy | 09:55 |
| Optimus110103 | ok | 09:55 |
| Optimus110103 | how do i use this paste bin thing | 09:55 |
| thatguy | hey optimus..im gona give you a hinty ... ubuntu has partnerd with dell so the dell your using will boot ubuntu no problem if you just wana try it | 09:55 |
| Agent_bob | see the link ^ | 09:55 |
| zetheroo | Polis_ttt: but I have it | 09:55 |
| jscinoz | WTF....i was listening to some music in rhythmbox, it hung, i ran "killall rhythmbox" and it said permission denied... checked the ownership, the process had somehow become root... | 09:55 |
| riotkittie | you cant understand their accent, great. but don't label things asinine, and then type things like that. :P | 09:55 |
| x0k`` | lol jscinoz | 09:55 |
| zetheroo | Polis_ttt: I have reinstalled alsa.... and still nothing | 09:56 |
| gluonman | My external hdd cannot be mounted ever since my computer froze while in the middle of writing files to the external hdd (NTFS format). Now, to try to recover it, I am wondering how I can force mount it and what the risks of that might be. But I at least need someone to exlain how I force mount it. | 09:56 |
| thatguy | ( im learning too) .. yes | 09:56 |
| Optimus110103 | http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/46069/ | 09:56 |
| thatguy | now when i click paste whats gona hppen? | 09:56 |
| Agent_bob | jscinoz app is suid or you called it with sudo/gksu.... | 09:56 |
| thatguy | WOW.. thats easy | 09:56 |
| Optimus110103 | did that work | 09:56 |
| riotkittie | gluonman: do you have access to a Windows OS? i'd suggest a defrag and a chkdsk. forcing may result in data loss. | 09:57 |
| Agent_bob | Optimus110103 looking now. | 09:57 |
| Optimus110103 | if so thats my system | 09:57 |
| Optimus110103 | ok | 09:57 |
| thatguy | yep thats a shoping list | 09:57 |
| Optimus110103 | its sitting next to me in a pretty black and blue case | 09:57 |
| gluonman | riotkittie, the data I have on my external hdd is also on my laptop. I could always rewrite it if I lost the data. | 09:57 |
| Optimus110103 | and its running ubuntu | 09:57 |
| gluonman | riotkittie, I don't have access to a Windows OS. | 09:57 |
| Joshooa | Can I get some wireless help? I keep getting disconnected from my game! | 09:58 |
| thatguy | oks... now you got it working? | 09:58 |
| Optimus110103 | its working | 09:58 |
| Optimus110103 | it loaded in safe mode | 09:58 |
| Optimus110103 | any tips on getting it to load in standard | 09:58 |
| thatguy | i got nothing | 09:58 |
| gluonman | riotkittie, so, given that, I would still like to try force mounting it fully prepared for data loss. It just seems easier with my lack of Windows OS availability. | 09:59 |
| riotkittie | gluonman: i think that you just add --force to the line as you try to mount it but its been so long i'm not 100% on that. mount -t ntfs /dev/path /mount/path --force | 09:59 |
| abcent | Optimus110103: What res does your monitor support up to? | 09:59 |
| jscinoz | Agent_bob i definately didnt call it with sudo/gksu | 09:59 |
| abcent | Optimus110103: mines 1440x900 | 09:59 |
| Optimus110103 | 1440x900 | 09:59 |
| gluonman | riotkittie, I'll try that. | 09:59 |
| Optimus110103 | samsung syncmaster | 10:00 |
| riotkittie | but if you dont have access to a win OS, one has to ask... why use a windows fs? | 10:00 |
| thatguy | it was nice talking to you alls ... but it is totaly my sleep time... optimus i hope that you have tons of fun with ubuntu .. and agian... enjoy.... opensource..its GREAT... its just a learning curve that kicks | 10:00 |
| Optimus110103 | 19 inch wide | 10:00 |
| gluonman | riotkittie, but I don't know the path. How do I check that? | 10:00 |
| abcent | Optimus110103: ViewSonic | 10:00 |
| jscinoz | well im off to play wow, bye all :) | 10:00 |
| Optimus110103 | thaks thatguy | 10:00 |
| thatguy | oks .. qestion for any one else that has .... 19 widescreens why dose it keep reconsing it as 1440 1xxx somthing.. | 10:00 |
| gluonman | riotkittie, I'm only keeping the external hdd formatted to ntfs just in case I ever go someplace where there is a Windows computer and I want to have access to my files. | 10:00 |
| thatguy | DRIVES ME NUTS.. that i cant get it to 900 like i can in xp.. | 10:00 |
| Agent_bob | Optimus110103 safe graphics mode uses vesa vidio driver rather than trying to use a card specific one. you can install your driver from the propritary source. ubotu knows a page on that "/msg ubotu ati " for more. but while using the cd just use the vesa driver, | 10:01 |
| odb|fidel_ | hi | 10:01 |
| kartofelek | hi | 10:01 |
| Optimus110103 | ok | 10:01 |
| odb|fidel_ | i am getting several 104-errors while updating my ubuntu dapper | 10:01 |
| gluonman | riotkittie, but how do I determine what the path is? | 10:01 |
| riotkittie | gluonman: i'd try. uhm. assuming you have one internal hd, i'd try /dev/sdb1 ... you could also /dev/sd<tab tab> | 10:01 |
| Optimus110103 | thanksill be back im gonna go play for a minute | 10:01 |
| thatguy | well agian..im outie... i had fun helping every one... nighty from me.. good morning to you | 10:01 |
| Optimus110103 | thanks again | 10:02 |
| thatguy | np | 10:02 |
| abcent | thatguy: mines works perfect, did you install the latest drivers from Nvidia | 10:02 |
| riotkittie | wait. does this drive normally automount? | 10:02 |
| thatguy | yep... its just every once in a while some linux distros find my displays as 1440 by 1000 some crap.. | 10:02 |
| thatguy | and like the display is all streached out | 10:02 |
| gluonman | riotkittie, hmm. Still not sure what the specific path is. | 10:02 |
| thatguy | i have two acer's ... so it could jsut be cuz cheap displays..idk | 10:02 |
| abcent | thatguy: strange indeed | 10:03 |
| thatguy | they look good and with alittle fidling it works just anyoing at times | 10:03 |
| savvas | how can I find out information about a server? i.e. its operating system | 10:03 |
| thatguy | i didnt know if any one else with widscreens has this happen | 10:03 |
| Agent_bob | riotkittie sudo fdisk -l or cat /proc/partitions will reviel what's avalable. | 10:03 |
| odb|fidel_ | any ideas howto get rid of those 104-errors while updating from security.ubuntu.com ? | 10:03 |
| thatguy | but agian .. laters | 10:03 |
| abcent | thatguy: catchya | 10:03 |
| gluonman | riotkittie, it does normally automount. | 10:03 |
| riotkittie | Agent_bob: bless you, you're a saint. i knew that but ... it's 5am and my brain long since went to bed :P | 10:04 |
| savvas | odb|fidel_: something with "Translation"? if so, ignore them | 10:04 |
| riotkittie | gluonman: do what Agent_bob suggested... open a terminal and sudo fdisk -l | 10:04 |
| gluonman | riotkittie, but I was busy writing data to the ext hdd when my computer froze. | 10:04 |
| Agent_bob | riotkittie heh yeah. maybe you should join it lol :) | 10:04 |
| odb|fidel_ | savvas: no. i.e. for samba-common, locales,mysql-client | 10:04 |
| erUSUL | savvas: nmap can guess te oss by its tcp/ip fingerprint | 10:05 |
| erUSUL | the OS* | 10:05 |
| savvas | odb|fidel_: can you paste a log at www.pastebin.ca and give me the link? | 10:05 |
| riotkittie | Agent_bob: i was thinking the same thing but my kid has a doctor's appt this morning. i took a sleeping pill at 1, and it just kicked in. i go to bed and i'm not getting up til like 3 :x | 10:05 |
| gluonman | riotkittie, when I add --force it says that it is an unrecognized option. | 10:05 |
| odb|fidel_ | savvas: yeah, gimme a sec | 10:06 |
| savvas | erUSUL: with the -O option? | 10:06 |
| erUSUL | savvas: if it's a public (notorius) server maybe netcraft.com knows about it | 10:06 |
| brobostigon | hi | 10:06 |
| Agent_bob | odb|fidel_ check the mirror you are using, the security repos shouldn't have a mirror i think. i.e. deb http://??.web/addr/here no ??. on the security | 10:06 |
| savvas | ah erUSUL I forgot about that site :) thanks | 10:06 |
| gluonman | riotkittie, and when I try to mount it without --force it doesn't do anything. | 10:07 |
| luddite | Agent_bob : ok - backup worked now i will run sudo fsck.vfat -a /dev/sdb1 : is that correct? or should i run without the -a option (which will auto repair) and then usr the backup bootsector? | 10:07 |
| Agent_bob | yes | 10:07 |
| luddite | hahah | 10:07 |
| luddite | yes to both? | 10:07 |
| odb|fidel_ | savvas: http://www.pastebin.ca/800314 | 10:07 |
| Agent_bob | assuming the device is sdb1 | 10:07 |
| luddite | it is | 10:08 |
| luddite | so -a? | 10:08 |
| Agent_bob | yes or without it. | 10:08 |
| luddite | ok | 10:08 |
| luddite | cool | 10:08 |
| luddite | here goes nothing | 10:08 |
| gluonman | riotkittie, you there? What do I do now? | 10:08 |
| luddite | i no there is no warranty - but it wont(cant) effect other partitions can it? | 10:08 |
| odb|fidel_ | Agent_bob: i am using security.ubuntu.com | 10:08 |
| luddite | no = know | 10:09 |
| riotkittie | okay, gluonman try mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/path /mount/path -o force | 10:09 |
| JPSman | how do I link a desktop icon to a command ran in the terminal? | 10:09 |
| Agent_bob | odb|fidel_ sudo apt-get update and see if it throws any errors at you. | 10:09 |
| riotkittie | JPSman: right click, create launcher | 10:09 |
| odb|fidel_ | Agent_bob: apt-get update works like a charme | 10:09 |
| odb|fidel_ | Agent_bob: problem comes while apt-get upgrade | 10:09 |
| JPSman | riotkittie - thank i'll try that | 10:10 |
| Agent_bob | JPSman make a launcher with the command in it | 10:10 |
| JPSman | Agent_bob - ditto thank you | 10:10 |
| Agent_bob | odb|fidel_ yes but update will update the package database | 10:10 |
| savvas | odb|fidel_: sometimes you have to wait a bit, the security server gets a lot of hits | 10:10 |
| odb|fidel_ | Agent_bob: yes. but actually i have entered that cmd severa ltimes before joining here :D | 10:11 |
| odb|fidel_ | mh | 10:11 |
| gluonman | riotkittie, it's still not mounted. I typed sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdb -o force | 10:11 |
| JPSman | Agent_bob - works wonders thank you :OD | 10:11 |
| JPSman | riotkittie - Works wonders thank you :OD | 10:11 |
| odb|fidel_ | savvas: would make sense, as it looks like i get the 104-errors not always for the same packets | 10:11 |
| Agent_bob | odb|fidel_ so if you do that and it has no error then do the apt-get upgrade or dist-upgrade and watch for the first error. | 10:11 |
| odb|fidel_ | but its always for about 5 or more | 10:11 |
| riotkittie | gluonman: you need a partition number, and a mount point :P /dev/sdb1 /media/wherever the drive should mount | 10:12 |
| Agent_bob | odb|fidel_ the first error message is the one we need. | 10:12 |
| odb|fidel_ | Agent_bob: its http://de.archive.ubuntu.com dapper-updates/main locales 2.3.18.5 | 10:12 |
| gluonman | riotkittie, I don't know what the partition number is nor the mount point. | 10:12 |
| odb|fidel_ | a 104 error for locales | 10:12 |
| odb|fidel_ | lol | 10:13 |
| odb|fidel_ | which is not security related in this case | 10:13 |
| Agent_bob | odb|fidel_ ok then change the mirror, try http://nl.archive.ubuntu.com | 10:13 |
| Optimus110104 | hey agent bob | 10:13 |
| Optimus110104 | get this | 10:13 |
| riotkittie | gluonman: open up a term and sudo fdisk -l ... it should list multiple drives and devices. should be easy to spot. look for the last device listed, and ntfs. | 10:13 |
| Agent_bob | you'll have to apt-get update after you change it. | 10:13 |
| kaan | ubuntu FR | 10:13 |
| riotkittie | err drives and partitions. | 10:13 |
| odb|fidel_ | Agent_bob: is there still a gui way for adding mirrors or is manualy editing interfaces file the only choice in ubuntu ? | 10:14 |
| luddite | Agent_bob : partial success so far. | 10:14 |
| kaan | joint ubuntu fr | 10:14 |
| Agent_bob | Optimus110104 ? | 10:14 |
| Optimus110104 | im on the other pc using ubuntu im on th pidgin thing | 10:14 |
| riotkittie | kaan: #ubuntu-fr | 10:14 |
| punzada | I have an NTFS drive mounted on one machine, I'm ssh'd into that machine, does the nfts-3g driver not work over an SSH connection? when I ls nothing is in the directory. | 10:14 |
| odb|fidel_ | erm, sources.list | 10:14 |

| luddite | Agent_bob : now i "mount -a" what happens to those drives already mounted in fstab? | 10:14 |
| gluonman | riotkittie, found the partition number. I just need the mountpoint, then. | 10:15 |
| riotkittie | punzada: i have no problem accessing my ntfs partition over ssh. are you sure that its mounted? | 10:15 |
| Agent_bob | odb|fidel_ yes still in adept and probably in synaptic but i just edit the /etc/apt/sources.list by hand so i can't exactly walk you through the gui way. | 10:15 |
| punzada | yeah it's mounted | 10:15 |
| Optimus110104 | I am liking this | 10:15 |
| odb|fidel_ | Agent_bob: :P | 10:15 |
| odb|fidel_ | ok thank you so far | 10:15 |
| Agent_bob | Optimus110104 like i told you. it will ruin you. | 10:15 |

| ccube | i love it! :) | 10:17 |
| Agent_bob | Optimus110104 check the forums/wiki i think there's a tool now that can import mail settings and that sort of thing. | 10:17 |
| Optimus110104 | they just got me up and running maybe 15 minutes ago | 10:17 |
| MatthewV | ccube, anything we can help you with ? | 10:17 |

| deal_ | When I first booted up with my Ubuntu ISO, I got a desktop, and I could turn on some cool desktop settings. Now I cant find them. Anyone here can point me in right direction ? | 10:18 |
| romano | hi | 10:18 |
| _6StringKng_ | System, Prefrences, Appearance | 10:18 |
| bullgard4 | man usplash writes: "usplash - userspace bootsplash daemon." When booting my Ubuntu 7.10 computer shows an Ubuntu usplash but System > Administration > Gnome system monitor > Processes does not show 'usplash'. Why not? | 10:18 |
| MatthewV | deal_, System --> Preferences --> Appearance | 10:18 |
| deal_ | Thanks | 10:18 |
| Agent_bob | Optimus110104 and they release every six months | 10:18 |
| gluonman | riotkittie, $MFTMirr does not match $MFT (record 0). Failed to mount '/dev/sdb1': Input/output error NTFS is either inconsistent, or you have hardware faults, or you have a SoftRAID/FakeRAID hardware. In the first case run chkdsk /f on Windows then reboot into Windows TWICE. The usage of the /f parameter is very important! If you have SoftRAID/FakeRAID then first you must activate it and mount a different device under the /dev/map | 10:18 |
| gluonman | per/ directory, (e.g. /dev/mapper/nvidia_eahaabcc1). Please see the 'dmraid' documentation for the details. | 10:18 |
| _6StringKng_ | then visual effects, extra | 10:19 |
| Optimus110104 | isnt ther supposed to be a new version every 6 months or something | 10:19 |
| MatthewV | oh _6StringKng_ beat me to it :) btw _6StringKng_ i have 5.10 disks still | 10:19 |
| _6StringKng_ | or whatever ytou want it on | 10:19 |
| savvas | bullgard4: usplash is running only during the bootup | 10:19 |
| MatthewV | Optimus110103, yep :) | 10:19 |
| odb|fidel_ | savvas: how do i launch that from cli ? | 10:19 |
| Agent_bob | Optimus110104 and they release every six months <<< repost | 10:19 |
| gluonman | riotkittie, that's the same error I get when I try to mount I try to mount it normally by clicking on the disk mounter. | 10:19 |
| _6StringKng_ | lol, I think 6.06 was the first version of ubuntu I used | 10:19 |
| MaskedOne | So has anyone tried installing and running World of Warcraft in a WinXP VirtualBox install? | 10:19 |
| _6StringKng_ | before than I was using mandriva | 10:19 |
| _6StringKng_ | that* | 10:19 |
| luddite | Agent_bob : SUCCESS Thanks very much | 10:19 |
| Optimus110104 | oh btw Agent_bob i allready installed my nvidia drivers for my gpu | 10:19 |
| savvas | odb|fidel_: you mean: gksu --desktop /usr/share/applications/software-properties.desktop /usr/bin/software-properties-gtk | 10:19 |
| odb|fidel_ | savvas: i know howto do it inside sources.list manualy, but its the learning aspect :D | 10:19 |

| Optimus110104 | i havnt restarted yet though so it hasnt taken effect | 10:20 |
| riotkittie | gluonman: okay, so forcing isnt working either. without a Win OS to check the data from, I think it's safe to say it's hopeless. | 10:20 |

| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about mx063 - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 10:20 |

| * Optimus110104 susspects that bob might be an aussie | 10:20 | |
| kaatil | oops wrong channel | 10:20 |
| MaskedOne | So been trying Virtual XP | 10:20 |
| testuser | thnks to the developers for doing such a good job on gutsy... just one prob. firefox crashes all the time | 10:20 |
| gluonman | riotkittie, okay. Thanks for the effort anyway. | 10:20 |
| _6StringKng_ | ati + linux dont work so well | 10:20 |
| Agent_bob | Optimus110104 /me wonders how you can install vidio drivers and then reboot if using the live cd .... | 10:21 |
| openuser | hi how i install openssh. i try sudo apt-get install openssh it can not find packet | 10:21 |
| MaskedOne | However I cant even get it to autorun the install, says it cannot find setup data | 10:21 |
| Agent_bob | ;/ | 10:21 |
| testuser | on the live cd I mean. any advice? | 10:21 |
| riotkittie | poor guy. :| | 10:21 |
| Optimus110104 | i tried to do the whole extra graphics thing and it installed the drivers by itself | 10:21 |
| ukubuntu | Hi all, I am having problems with browsers and liferea not starting up since recent update. Bar shows program starting but then disappears. | 10:21 |
| Optimus110104 | recognized my gpu and all too | 10:22 |
| MatthewV | openuser, sudo apt-get install ssh | 10:22 |
| _6StringKng_ | test, u overclocking your cpu at all? | 10:22 |
| riotkittie | and he left before i could give my final suggestion. oO | 10:22 |
| _6StringKng_ | testuser* | 10:22 |
| savvas | bullgard4: you got me there, no idea, but it could be because it's a daemon running during bootup on specific time, plus it has a "bar" that shows you how much it took to load the modules and all the other funky gnu/linux stuff | 10:22 |
| Optimus110104 | oh yeah does ubuntu suppot overclocking well? | 10:22 |
| _6StringKng_ | yeah | 10:22 |
| Agent_bob | Optimus110104 but rebooting the liveCD you loose all that of course, so it will be just like it is now... | 10:22 |
| Optimus110104 | oh | 10:22 |
| Optimus110104 | oh well | 10:22 |
| _6StringKng_ | I have my old Linux box overclocked by about 200Mhz, works fine | 10:22 |
| riotkittie | openuser: sudo apt-get install openssh-server | 10:22 |
| riotkittie | openuser: assuming you want the server. client's preinstalled. | 10:23 |
| Optimus110104 | well i have my x2 5400 over clocked from 2.8 to 3.02 | 10:23 |
| openuser | thanx | 10:23 |
| savvas | Optimus110104: or: sudo apt-get install ssh | 10:23 |
| savvas | ;) | 10:23 |
| Optimus110104 | and it seems to be doing fine | 10:23 |
| Agent_bob | Optimus110104 heh i think it does. "support over clocking" i have a p1 100mhz that i run at 233mhz heh that's kinda over clocked. | 10:23 |
| Optimus110104 | of course 20 minutes isnt much of a test | 10:23 |
| _6StringKng_ | lol | 10:23 |
| Optimus110104 | i guess so | 10:24 |
| _6StringKng_ | depending on what temps I'm getting I overclock it betweem 180-240MHz | 10:24 |
| savvas | oops sorry Optimus110104 :P | 10:24 |
| Optimus110104 | my readout right now is 23.8 C | 10:24 |

| Optimus110104 | what kinda games does ubuntu have | 10:25 |

| luddite | Optimus: check synaptic - search for games | 10:25 |
| Agent_bob | _6StringKng_ oc on old p1's is not much of a problem with heat you don't even have to water cool them, just put the heatsync and fan off of a p3/4 on them and go... | 10:25 |

| Agent_bob | Condoulo you can just make the partition, and format from the cli sudo mke2fs -jc /dev/hda1 <<< example. | 10:35 |
| jlakha_ | any doc about joomla | 10:35 |
| _6StringKng_ | the onyl modems I ever had any luck with in linux, was extrernal ones | 10:35 |
| _6StringKng_ | only* | 10:36 |
| Condoulo | I have a question, why is it, when I am partitioning, it mounts the drive. | 10:36 |
| erUSUL | Condoulo: it is the disk blank? maybe it is asking for a now partition table.... | 10:36 |
| ukubuntu | thx erUSUL will need second pc then :( | 10:36 |
| jane_ | ukubuntu, think after a restart that should go away | 10:36 |
| Condoulo | erUSUL- it used to have ntfs. But I deleted the ntfs partition | 10:36 |
| erUSUL | Condoulo: gparted never asked me for a disklabel (or my memory is failing me...) | 10:37 |
| ukubuntu | jane_: hanks, I have tried soft and hard restarts with no change :( | 10:37 |
| Condoulo | erUSUL- ah | 10:37 |
| jane_ | ukubuntu, i think a crashed instance of firefox may be the problem | 10:37 |
| Agent_bob | Condoulo that would probably have something to do with everyone whining and demanding that disks/partitions mount automatically and then that automounting gets in the way of partitioning/cd-burning/floppy-formatting.... | 10:37 |
| ukubuntu | thanks :$ | 10:37 |
| erUSUL | ukubuntu: install epiphany or other webbrowser | 10:37 |
| Agent_bob | i'm with erUSUL on the gparted issue | 10:38 |
| ukubuntu | Thanks guys, I have tried Epiphany and galeon but no joy. | 10:38 |
| Agent_bob | ukubuntu konqueror ? | 10:38 |
| Condoulo | Agent_bob- Ah. yeah, the auto-mounting is annoying and screwing up the formatting every time I do format. | 10:39 |
| ukubuntu | I am guessing it must be in a collective net library as liferea is also affected | 10:39 |
| jane_ | ukubuntu, im running lifera and firefox at the moment without problems perhaps a reinstall may help | 10:39 |
| luddite | ubuntu sucks becuase i cant run Nuendo under wine in it... therefore i must remain on windows xp ... | 10:39 |
| * luddite is a sad sad luddite | 10:40 | |
| erUSUL | ukubuntu: then the culprit is gecko (the html renderer used by the three browsers and probably lifarea) | 10:40 |
| Condoulo | ok, when I am formatting my second hard drive, is there any options I should specifically chose? Primary or Extended? | 10:40 |
| _6StringKng_ | only reason I use windows is for Counter-Strike, tried it using WINE, didn't like the results to much | 10:40 |
| ukubuntu | thanks jane_ I cannot reinstall firefox as it has other dependants so it may need a complete OS reinstall :( | 10:40 |
| _6StringKng_ | primary for space I believe | 10:41 |
| Agent_bob | luddite nuendo is a must have eeh... well don't blame linux for the writers of the app not sharing the code... | 10:41 |
| christofer | firefox can be uninstalled using synaptic package manager | 10:41 |
| Agent_bob | luddite if they'll opensource the code, we'll make it run in linux too... | 10:41 |
| ukubuntu | Thanks for the lead erUSUL not sure how to tackle that then but willing to learn. I will try via synaptic, add/remove would not allow it. | 10:41 |
| luddite | Agent_bob : yeah i know : its a must have for me : i have about 10 years...well cubase and nuendo.) worth of multitrack songs in nuendo. | 10:42 |
| H264 | how do I download from a CVS? | 10:42 |
| luddite | on dvd | 10:42 |

| babo | i want all the pdfs in the system | 10:47 |

| Agent_bob | babo not that i know of. same old "frustrating" app. as far as i know. | 10:50 |
| MatthewV | both return system wide results for me | 10:50 |
| M- | mahousaru: How are you trying to encrypt? AFAIK, you should be able to create a RAID1 device (i.e. /dev/mdX) and then setup DM-crypt on top of it (create a new device, /dev/mapper/xxxx) | 10:50 |
| Condoulo | finally! I got the drive to format properly! And I figured out why I couldn't create files. Because the drive was formatted in root. so I just changed permissions. | 10:51 |

| Agent_bob | you have *.pdf files/dirs in your pwd and the asterisk was being expanded by the shell into those file/dir/names... | 10:52 |
| gluonman | Okay. I'm back revisiting an issue that I abandoned a while ago. Trying to set up my laptop as a gateway for my desktop to access the internet. Using a cross-over ethernet cable to connect the two boxes. The laptop is receiving an apartment router's wireless signal via a wireless card (this is the internet connection I want to share). And I followed the instructions at http://www.ubuntugeek.com/sharing-internet-connection-in-ubunt | 10:52 |
| gluonman | u.html but to no avail, since the desktop is still not connected. | 10:52 |

| mahousaru | M-: I tried that using the Gutsy alt cd, but on reboot, it doesn't seem to want to decrypt the dm partition. I'm encrypting the home partition | 10:52 |
| M- | mahousaru: Did you try decrypting it manually? (i.e. cryptsetup -y /dev/mdX) | 10:53 |
| Agent_bob | babo reason, you have *.pdf files/dirs in your pwd and the asterisk was being expanded by the shell into those file/dir/names... | 10:53 |

| M- | mahousaru: You could also try setting it up manually; there may be some sort of installer bug | 10:54 |
| ukubuntu | I´m back, uninstalled firefox, restarted, reinstalled ffx same issue is here. thanks for the help, I will perhaps try later in case any other ideas come up but I think it wil end in an OS reinstall. | 10:54 |
| mahousaru | M-: currently I only tried it via setup, but actually now you mention it, it might be easier for me to set the box up and then do the encrypted partitions | 10:54 |
| Agent_bob | babo single qoutes preserves wildcards and some special chars | 10:54 |
| mahousaru | M-: Thanks for the suggestion, I'l do it that way saves me the frustration of installing each time | 10:55 |

| Agent_bob | gluonman lappy running linux ? | 10:56 |
| Optimus110103 | im doing the install now | 10:57 |
| gluonman | Agent_bob, both boxes are running Ubuntu 7.10. | 10:57 |
| murrayc | Does anyone know if the PPAs can be for Gutsy, or just Hardy? | 10:57 |
| erUSUL | gluonman: wire the two comoputers and share the conection (firestarter on the laptop can do that iirc) | 11:00 |
| Agent_bob | gluonman install dnsmasq and ipmasq on the lappy setup a static ip for the eth card probably something in the 192.168.0.0/24 range enable ipv4 forwarding in the /etc/sysctl.conf of all boxen, then set the routing for the other boxen to use the static ip from the lappy as a default gateway there are plenty of howtos on the web. | 11:00 |
| simmerz | when i set a directory up for sharing over smb, trying to access it with a windows machine asks me for a username and password. entering mine don't work. any ideas? | 11:00 |
| simmerz | using gutsy | 11:00 |
| Optimus110103 | I have a question? | 11:00 |
| gluonman | Agent_bob, I followed a how-to and installed dnsmasq and ipmasq, etc. But when all was finished, I'm guessing that I'm just confused about what to do with the second computer. | 11:01 |
| Optimus110103 | if i make a document with the word processor in ubuntu can i later go and open it on a windows pc using ms word | 11:02 |

| _6StringKng_ | weird | 11:15 |
| CISTERNA | kj | 11:15 |
| Optimus110103 | hang on let me see exactly what it says | 11:15 |
| Optimus110103 | something about proprietary drivers | 11:16 |
| Optimus110103 | should I try installing the drivers from the disk that came with the card | 11:17 |
| Optimus110103 | ? | 11:17 |
| _6StringKng_ | no...thats for windows most likely | 11:17 |
| Optimus110103 | thats what i figured | 11:17 |
| Optimus110103 | believe it or not it ran better off the live cd | 11:18 |
| Optimus110103 | it at least ran 1024x768 | 11:18 |
| _6StringKng_ | fnny how that stuff works huh, lol | 11:18 |
| _6StringKng_ | 7.04 I had to manually configure xserver but with 7.10 it setup fine when I installed it | 11:18 |
| Optimus110103 | and now i get no better than 8x6 | 11:18 |
| gluonman | Agent_bob, okay. I went through everything again and then wrote sudo ip route add default via 192.168.0.1 in a terminal on my second computer (desktop). It just outputs RTNETLINK answers: No such process. Now what? | 11:19 |
| Optimus110103 | bob left | 11:19 |
| user-ubuntu | hi how can i find my root password, i try su then my password it does not work | 11:19 |
| _6StringKng_ | sudo passwd in terminal, u can change ti that way | 11:19 |
| Optimus110103 | im using a lot of bandwidth right now | 11:20 |
| gluonman | oh crap, he left. | 11:20 |
| Optimus110103 | runnin kinda laggy | 11:20 |

| gluonman | Anyone else know a thing or two about sharing an internet connection with two computers by configuring one of them to act as a gateway? | 11:20 |
| _6StringKng_ | ah | 11:20 |
| _6StringKng_ | recovery mode maybe? | 11:20 |
| _6StringKng_ | in the terminal, or actually login as root? | 11:21 |

| Optimus110103 | i guess so | 11:23 |
| gluonman | _6StringKng_, I would buy a switch, or just a wireless adaptor for my desktop, but I have no money. So I'm trying to figure it out the cheap, though more complicated, way. | 11:23 |
| _6StringKng_ | hehe, I hear that | 11:23 |
| gluonman | Optimus110103, a titanium ring? I have no idea. | 11:24 |
| _6StringKng_ | I want a wireless access point but no money, so may have to conjure up some money for a cheaper wireless router instead | 11:24 |

| _6StringKng_ | never dealt with anything like than using linux | 11:27 |

| Beefcake4000 | Ximal - my understanding of mda is an application that takes mail from one location (pop/mail directory/smtp) and passes to a program like procmail which is capable of saving the mail as an actual message | 12:53 |
| jacob_ | MartinW: download http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/g/gnome-ppp/gnome-ppp_0.3.23-0ubuntu2_i386.deb | 12:53 |

| Pici | punzada: What part are you confused about? | 13:14 |
| punzada | they don't have 16 processors taxed out | 13:14 |
| Ximal | flo : if it has the speaker ports in the back.. why not test them by watching a movie with 6.1 surround system Setup on it ? | 13:14 |
| Pici | punzada: Perhaps they have 16 processes running though | 13:14 |

| brobostigon | ankur, only users that can use sudo can open the net config, so you can restrict which users can use it, by choosing which users have access to sudo. | 13:40 |

| IanLiu | oh | 13:47 |
| IanLiu | thanks | 13:47 |
| Ximal | welp | 13:47 |
| Arsanerit | Why does "dpkg -S /usr/bin/java" give no results, and why does it take many seconds (it should be a simple database query?) | 13:47 |
| Noya | dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/loop0 | 13:47 |

| Noya | anyone has an idea whats going wrong? | 13:48 |
| Arsanerit | $ type -p java -> "/usr/bin/java" - I would like to find out who owns the package, but "dpkg -S /usr/bin/java" says "dpkg: /usr/bin/java not found." - How do I find out who owns /usr/bin/java? | 13:48 |
| Noya | (theres enough space on my harddisk) | 13:48 |
| chazco | So... any ideas with the keyboard? | 13:49 |
| ger_3D | chazco: and compiz-fusion works on that graphics card | 13:49 |
| Cap_J_L_Picard | Arsanerit: because it is a symlink set up depending on what java vm package you installed (might have multiple) and not to one package itself. | 13:49 |
| chazco | All the stange graphics that are included in Gusty work fine, so i guess so | 13:49 |
| geirha | Arsanerit: none of the java packages put the java executable in /usr/bin, they put them in /usr/lib/jvm/..., update-java-alternatives creates symlinks for /usr/bin/java | 13:49 |
| Arsanerit | I see. So then how do I find out where the jdk is installed, what my jdk root is? | 13:50 |
| ger_3D | chazco: good to hear, thinking of buying that one | 13:50 |
| geirha | Arsanerit: dpkg -S java should be more helpful | 13:50 |
| chazco | According to dmesg the keyboard is setup... just doesnt appear to work (not on the u200, on my desktop) | 13:50 |
| === Witch1 is now known as pumba | ||
| chazco | ger_3D - I think the u300 is similar to the u200, and the u200 is _very_ well supported in Linux for a laptop :) | 13:50 |
| Cap_J_L_Picard | chazco: paste? | 13:50 |
| geirha | Arsanerit: and, ls -l /usr/bin/java probably links to /etc/alternatives/java, and ls -l /etc/alternatives/java should link to the actual binary | 13:50 |
| Arsanerit | geirha: That gives in fact 6829 results; | 13:51 |
| Arsanerit | geirha: ok | 13:51 |
| chazco | Trying to paste... it doesnt like it | 13:51 |
| ger_3D | chazco: what wireless do you have on the u200? | 13:51 |
| Arsanerit | geirha: Actually: "dpkg: /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/bin/java not found." | 13:51 |
| chazco | Not sure... some Intel thing | 13:51 |
| ger_3D | and that works fine? | 13:52 |
| Lunz | pike_,http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/46090/ | 13:52 |

| brobostigon | good afternoon | 13:53 |
| chazco | ger_3D: seems to so far... even the built in bluetooth works fine | 13:53 |
| geirha | Arsanerit: try dpkg -S java | grep /java$ | 13:53 |
| chazco | Afaik the only thing on the u200 with problems is the built in SD (xd and so on also) reader | 13:53 |
| ger_3D | chazco: grat thats the one i'm thinking of buying | 13:53 |
| mikubuntu | http://www.flickr.com/photos/14483391@N03/2070702491/ .... we just installed ubuntu on my friends machine, and he boots up, then goes along a little while, until his screen does this (see photo link)... can anyone venture a guess as to the problem? | 13:53 |
| Arsanerit | geirha: Ok, I found some. | 13:53 |
| geirha | Arsanerit: /usr/lib/java-sun-6 is yet a symlink to /usr/lib/java-sun-6-specific_version | 13:53 |
| chazco | The u200 (theres a few)? | 13:54 |
| Arsanerit | I see | 13:54 |
| chazco | Battery life rocks under Ubuntu on it also :D | 13:54 |
| Ximal | anyone know if with ekiga you can use it like a normal phone line ? | 13:54 |
| ger_3D | chazco: the U300 | 13:54 |
| Arsanerit | can I tell dpkg to follow symlinks? | 13:54 |
| Ximal | where people can call you ? | 13:54 |
| chazco | Think its pretty similar, good luck :) | 13:54 |
| Lunz | pike,did you view it? | 13:55 |
| ger_3D | chazco: that one | 13:55 |
| jrib | Arsanerit: what do you mean exactly? | 13:55 |
| ger_3D | chazco: http://www.komplett.no/k/ki.aspx?sku=337738&view=detailed#ProductTabs | 13:55 |
| chazco | From what i can see on there most of that is the same | 13:55 |
| Arsanerit | jrib: I mean that it tries to resolve what package owns the actual file rather than just the path that I happen to use to refer to the file. | 13:55 |
| geirha | Arsanerit: I doubt it | 13:56 |
| |Kamen| | not really tech support, but can someone recomend me a good telnet client for connecting to a bbs? one that supports zmodem transfers and ansi and such? | 13:56 |
| ger_3D | chazco: great, I would like to avoid having to hack on that for a week to get it working | 13:56 |
| Arsanerit | ok | 13:56 |
| jrib | Arsanerit: use: dpkg -S $(readling -f /path/to/some/symlink) | 13:56 |
| eyemean | no worries, i found out wat main problem wa, my home folder had only 44k space left, hahaha | 13:57 |

| shriphani | !python > shriphani | 13:57 |

| shriphani | default ^ | 13:58 |

| tuna | when a fullscreen app crashes, mouse gets stuck. how can it be fixed? | 13:59 |
| Arsanerit | ok | 14:00 |
| jrib | tuna: try ctrl-alt-f1 and kill the app from there or try ctrl-alt-backspace to restart X | 14:00 |
| Arsanerit | Seems there is no java sqlite package | 14:00 |
| chazco | Any ideas on the keyboard? | 14:01 |
| jrib | !please > chazco (read the private message from ubotu) | 14:01 |
| tuna | jrib: no need for that. you can kill the app, then start a new fullscreen app and quit it properly, then the mouse works again. I think there has to be a key combination for just unfreezing the mouse | 14:01 |
| tuna | if there isn't I'm gonna make one | 14:01 |
| |Kamen| | unfreezing the mouse? can the mouse driver be reinitialized? | 14:02 |
| tuna | kamen. i think that is too drastic | 14:02 |
| Lunz_ | pike_,did you view the pastebin? | 14:02 |
| tuna | it's all just x, it doesn't think it needs to listen for mouse when a fullscreen app is doing it | 14:03 |
| tuna | a program that just tells x it's ok to do mouse is enough | 14:03 |
| |Kamen| | ah | 14:04 |

| tonyyarusso | ubuntu_: I believe it's called something like "Resize sda1 and use freed space" | 14:10 |

| thor | Kamen: at first look it seems minicom is limited to serial ports...don't see a way to point it to a network device | 14:11 |
| tonyyarusso | froglet: It's recommended in the documentation at least. You take responsibility for the legal implications, but it should be safe, since you're just adding things through normal means, rather than hackjob scripts. | 14:11 |

| Arelis | tonyyarusso: "an error has happened while writing to the storage devices. Aborting." | 14:17 |
| tonyyarusso | Mouldy: Probably because of the spaces in the filename, which need escaping with \ | 14:17 |
| Mortice | Mouldy: it's probably because the working path needs to be the directory in which gta-sa.exe is found | 14:17 |
| thor | Mouldy:: you need to escape spaces in the filename path....San\ Andreas | 14:17 |
| tonyyarusso | Arelis: odd. I'm not really sure. | 14:17 |
| dahitokiri | no, the " " would take care of the spaces | 14:17 |
| Mortice | Mouldy: yea, or it could be spaces. lol, sorry | 14:17 |
| dahitokiri | you only need to escape when you aren't quoting | 14:18 |
| Mouldy | jrib, it looks like wine is trying to start it, but it crashes out because some sort of sound error. But it'll do it fine if I first cd to the dir and then run it with wine | 14:18 |

| Mortice | probably trying to access the sounds on a relative path, eg "sounds/blah.mp3" and not finding them because you're not in the dir it expects. | 14:18 |
| Mouldy | Mortice, wouldn't it just start from root though as the path starts with a /? | 14:18 |
| jane_ | tonyyarusso, thank you | 14:18 |
| LjL | !register > Arelis (Arelis, see the private message from Ubotu) i suggest you do this | 14:18 |
| thor | Mouldy: I have had problems doing that on menu entries and such | 14:19 |
| dahitokiri | y'know what sucks? gentoo has less users than ubuntu now, but their doscs for various things to do on linux is still much better | 14:19 |
| Mouldy | thor, That's what I'm trying to do :) | 14:19 |
| Arelis | LjL: already did?> | 14:19 |
| Arelis | did.* | 14:19 |
| genii | Bah. Need to swap machines but that k-line has the other messy. BRB | 14:19 |
| DrSmall | How can I take a screenshot with icewm. Or rather, is there some screenshot program that I can install from the repository ? | 14:19 |
| === genii is now known as genii-laptop | ||
| tonyyarusso | Arelis: I haven't run into that particular error before, so I'm a tad stumped (and just woke up, so...) Sorry. | 14:19 |
| Mouldy | I'll try escaping each of the spaces rather than just having the path in quotes | 14:19 |
| rpj8 | DrSmall: lookup Scrot | 14:19 |
| Lunz | i have booting problem on my xp paste my menu list at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/46090/ | 14:19 |
| thor | Mouldy: I use xfce so that might have something to do with it...but especially with shortcuts and menus quotes sometimes caused me problems | 14:19 |
| DrSmall | thanks | 14:19 |
| jrib | DrSmall: 'import' from imagemagick | 14:19 |
| Arelis | tonyyarusso: Alright. no problem :). Yeah, it's in dutch, so i had to translate it.. but it came down to something like that | 14:20 |
| Arelis | LjL: Oh alright. I saw a ctcp something-exec.exe everywhere | 14:20 |
| Arelis | LjL: Means other people have been infected | 14:20 |
| Mouldy | thor, just tried escaping the spaces, did exactly what it did before. wine crashes out with an error about alsa | 14:21 |
| thor | Mouldy: that sounds like a problem with alsa...did you run winecfg when you installed wine? | 14:21 |
| geirha | Mouldy: it's not uncommon for windows progs to expect that you run the prog from the directory it's located in | 14:22 |
| Mouldy | yeah, wine will run the game 100% fine with no errors if I cd to the directory that the directory first though | 14:22 |
| geirha | Mouldy: you'll just have to cd into the dir and run it like that... cd /path/to/game;wine the.exe;cd - | 14:22 |
| LjL | Arelis, hardly any ubuntu users though | 14:22 |
| Mouldy | geirha, Ok, I'll give that a go thanks | 14:22 |
| Mouldy | geirha, "There was an error creating the child process for this terminal" apparently | 14:23 |
| nixnoob | my new keyboard shortcut for my panel menu is not working the old shortcut is still in effect anyone know why? | 14:24 |
| smultron | when i use the rsync --exclude 'something' it works the first time, but after that, it never works. any ideas? | 14:24 |
| Mouldy | geirha, If I run it those 2 commands separated by the ; straight in the terminal it works. If I try and do it from a menu item it comes up with that error | 14:24 |
| d4rk3lf | bom dia | 14:25 |
| d4rk3lf | alguem saber sobre GRUB? | 14:25 |
| geirha | Mouldy: the easiest way is to put that into a script, and run the script from a menu item | 14:25 |
| vladimir_ | Hi everyone! Sorry what is the tool to browse files and setpermissions in a graphical interface? used one but now forgot what it was | 14:25 |

| === suren is now known as silverprince | ||
| === silverprince is now known as negrus | ||
| Arelis | juano__: No, the automatic resize option | 14:31 |
| juano__ | Arelis: try manual partitioning | 14:32 |
| mikubuntu | smultron: when he first boots up he's ok, then after a few minutes is when the screen screws up ... that's why i'm inclined to think its a hardware not a software thing... | 14:33 |
| juano__ | Arelis: you can try to quit installation, gksudo gparted , leave windows partition or resize it , and then delete all other partitions, only leave the windows one and free space at least 5 GB or so and then run the installer again | 14:33 |
| Arsanerit | According to ubuntuforums, "If you install Java from Ubuntu's repository, most of the classpath settings are automagically set up for you". How do I find out this default classpath, where and how is it set? | 14:34 |
| nixnoob | my new keyboard shortcut for my panel menu is not working the old shortcut is still in effect anyone know why? | 14:34 |
| smultron | mikubuntu: yes, that very well could be. you could try swapping the video card with a known good one (if it's a desktop). | 14:34 |
| juano__ | Arelis: then use the option that keeps your windows partition and uses continous free space | 14:34 |
| mikubuntu | smultron: yes, is a desktop | 14:34 |
| Arelis | juano__: It's not the desktop CD.. it's the alternate CD | 14:35 |
| mikubuntu | smultron: will suggest that to him | 14:35 |
| juano__ | Arelis: ah ok, then use cfdisk | 14:35 |
| juano__ | Arelis: cfdisk to edit your partitions | 14:35 |
| Arelis | juano__: I want 50/50 space. 40 for Windows, 40 for linux. | 14:35 |
| juano__ | Arelis: though i dont recomend resizing a partition with cfdisk unless you are experienced with it | 14:36 |
| juano__ | Arelis: you should download the gparted boot cd | 14:36 |
| opla | d4 i got that if it can help you http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/grub.html#root | 14:36 |
| opla | sorry | 14:37 |

| juano__ | anyone know if there is a tool to convert console music (NSF , VGM ) to wav or mp3 ? | 16:02 |
| ikonia | UndertakerX2 boot from the livecd, check your /etc/fstab on your local disk (not the one on the livecd) and see if /boot is on a seperate partition | 16:02 |
| linux_ | my mouse is glitchy how do i fix it | 16:03 |
| UndertakerX2 | ikonia, im already on a live cd, will check now | 16:03 |
| simmerz | when i try to share a directory, windows clients ask for a username and password. how can i resolve that? I can't use my own as they don't work. what should I use? | 16:03 |
| ikonia | simmerz you need to setup samba, and a samba auth system | 16:04 |
| Journeyman | i installed fail2ban but it doesn't have any config files | 16:04 |
| gost1 | burt | 16:04 |
| kdeuser | simmerz: samba pass | 16:04 |
| simmerz | ikonia: so just using the "shared folders" part of the admin won't do the job? | 16:04 |
| kdeuser | nope | 16:04 |
| linux_ | in ubuntu my mouse keeps glitching it move from side to side and then it stops | 16:04 |
| Achoth | Hello. I want to have a transparent terminal that is always on the level of the desktop. Is this possible? | 16:04 |
| ikonia | simmerz: it should do, does it give you an option on "how" to share | 16:04 |
| Pici | simmerz: or run `sudo smbpasswd -a <username>` | 16:04 |
| UndertakerX2 | ikonia, it seems to be reading the wrong drive as my local disc | 16:04 |
| UndertakerX2 | ikonia, one of my usb drives to be exact | 16:05 |
| ikonia | UndertakerX2: please explain | 16:05 |
| === jussi__ is now known as jussi01 | ||
| simmerz | ikonia: no. it just gives me the option to add dirs. when i was using kde/gentoo, i had all the options available. yes I can edit the smb.conf file, but I'd like to see how ubuntu "should" do it | 16:05 |
| UndertakerX2 | ikonia, its reading my usb drive as local disc not my main hard drive | 16:05 |
| UndertakerX2 | ikonia, im running 2 internal drives and 2 external usb drives. | 16:06 |
| ikonia | UndertakerX2 so you've installed grub to the usb one ? | 16:06 |
| insllvn | ikonia probably a foolish question, but where does firefox store the config file? | 16:06 |
| ikonia | UndertakerX2: is /boot a seperate partition | 16:06 |
| ikonia | insllvn: normally ~/.mozilla or ~/.firefox | 16:06 |
| ikonia | insllvn: can't remember which on ubuntu | 16:06 |
| pike_ | insllvn: ~/.mozilla directory remember if you delete whole dir there go your bookmarks too | 16:07 |
| UndertakerX2 | i dont believe i have installed it on to my usb drive | 16:07 |
| ikonia | UndertakerX2 thats not what I asked | 16:07 |
| ikonia | UndertakerX2: is /boot a seperate partition or just a directory off / | 16:07 |
| insllvn | right i am in ~/.mozilla now | 16:07 |

| zeroflag | bulmer: I have a linux "server" with several HDDs. I have a windows box which should work without any moving parts (hdds). so the idea is to put etherboot (or something) on the windows box and boot it via ethernet/iSCSI from the linux server's hdds. | 16:58 |

| r3n0c | how do i add ATI drivers, when the restricted driver manager says i don't need any | 17:04 |
| burn_ | kilroy: but errr i tried using wifi radar, it says i am connected, but when i plug out my LAN cable, i cant surf | 17:04 |
| ikonia | EddieV no, don't build anything at all. | 17:04 |
| squee | hardware-Rks: It is going to set up the wallpaper based on how the screen is, so you could set them up as seperate screens, or you could use the ugly work around of pulling your image into gimp and putting 2 of them next to each other and setting that as your background. There may be another way but I'm not aware of it | 17:04 |
| Kilroy | burn_: if you want to use the gui go to System>Administration>Network | 17:04 |
| EddieV | Ikonia Ahhh, mmkay, makes sense | 17:04 |
| ikonia | EddieV: if the package is already in the ubuntu repo, why not use it ? | 17:04 |
| Yodude | can someone help me with 64-bit please ?! | 17:04 |
| bulmer | UndertakerX2-> hmm...am surprised that it wouldnt allow you while you are in liveCD | 17:04 |

| r3n0c | anybody got ATI cards to work? | 17:06 |
| bulmer | UndertakerX2-> then sudo chroot / | 17:06 |
| Kilroy | burn_: look at your iwconfig output, Access Point: Not-Associated that is why it is not being connected | 17:06 |
| burn_ | kilroy: like it looks like its enabled | 17:06 |
| squee | zimon: xfce must do it differently. If your wallpaper is the same as your resolution you could set it as tiled : / | 17:06 |
| riotkittie | what does xfce use to control backgrounds? | 17:06 |
| burn_ | kilroy: ic ic...hehe any ideas how to get it to be connected? | 17:06 |

| Kilroy | burn_: yah | 17:06 |
| RazzoRz | Yodude: do i need to reboot after the fact.. because that message is still there | 17:07 |
| riotkittie | smacky_: check your power management settings? | 17:07 |
| teckfatt | smacky_, maybe over heated ? | 17:07 |
| bulmer | UndertakerX2-> chroot / again..does it work now? | 17:07 |
| Kilroy | burn_: sudo iwconfig eth0 ap <your routers mac> | 17:07 |
| zimon | squee, hm no .. that won't work, cause i've got different resolutions on the screens. don't i need xinerama for a dual monitor setup? | 17:07 |

| riotkittie | PAE? | 17:07 |
| burn_ | kilroy: my routers mac address? | 17:07 |
| Kilroy | burn_: yes.. | 17:07 |
| void^ | hardware-Rks: use the -server kernel or a custom kernel | 17:08 |
| UndertakerX2 | bulmer: i did it twice then | 17:08 |
| bulmer | UndertakerX2-> thats okay...now | 17:08 |
| burn_ | kilroy: errr how do i find that out? :p hehe sorry man a real noob here | 17:08 |
| Kilroy | burn_: do a iwlist eth0 scan | 17:08 |
| Kilroy | burn_: and paste that to pastebin | 17:08 |
| bulmer | UndertakerX2-> which partition did you install your ubuntu on? | 17:08 |
| hardware-Rks | is there an easy way of enabling 4GB on my desktop? | 17:08 |
| MasterShrek | hardware-Rks, 32 bit or 64? | 17:08 |
| riotkittie | 4GB? | 17:08 |
| hardware-Rks | 32bit | 17:08 |
| burn_ | it says no scan results | 17:08 |
| MolePrince | Looking for network related ideas for what to do with an old box. :) | 17:09 |
| MasterShrek | hardware-Rks, as suggested use the -server kernel or compile one yourself with support for 4gb of ram | 17:09 |
| Kilroy | burn_: hrrrm | 17:09 |
| hardware-Rks | how do I add the -server kernel to my desktop? | 17:09 |
| Kilroy | burn_: you sure you did eth0? | 17:09 |
| burn_ | kilroy: hey man...i think i'd call it a night. thanks for all your help man. i'll try and solve it tmrw | 17:09 |
| bulmer | burn_-> sometimes you have to do it multiple times to detect ap around you | 17:09 |
| Yodude | RazzoRz: yes reboot | 17:09 |
| Kilroy | burn_: kk | 17:09 |
| MasterShrek | hardware-Rks, search in synaptic for: kernel server | 17:09 |
| UndertakerX2 | bulmer: 14.1 GB Volume: disk is the partion i used, and isee the folders structure matching the ubuntu live cd on this partion | 17:09 |
| Iwanowitch | Hrmf. So close yet still not running... Broadcom cards are useless. :/ | 17:09 |
| riotkittie | MolePrince: turn it into a router | 17:09 |
| hardware-Rks | will all my desktop hardware still work with the -server kernel | 17:09 |
| Kilroy | burn_: i have to get some homework done anyways :) | 17:09 |
| burn_ | kilroy: thanks ma! :) | 17:10 |
| r3n0c | anybody know how to get ATI drivers to work? | 17:10 |
| MasterShrek | hardware-Rks, yes it should | 17:10 |
| Kilroy | burn_: GL | 17:10 |
| burn_ | exit | 17:10 |
| juano__ | burn_: much faster do sudo arp -a | 17:10 |
| bulmer | UndertakerX2-> pastebin your "mount" results again | 17:10 |
| juano__ | burn_: you get all mac addresses with ip numbers | 17:10 |
| void^ | hardware-Rks: there's no restricted-modules package for -server | 17:10 |
| MolePrince | riotkittie: I have a hw router on my network, is it worth much to add a linux on on top of that? | 17:10 |
| riotkittie | r3n0c: which card? and i take it you've tried installing them, and perhaps... rendered yourself unable to boot completely after doing it? :P | 17:11 |
| juano__ | burn_ that is until until you reach a tier 3 device (router) | 17:11 |
| Pars1 | whats the exact meaning of "linux for human beings" ? | 17:11 |
| r3n0c | i tried installing them, and the restricted drivers manager doesn't notice that i need ati drivers | 17:11 |
| riotkittie | MolePrince: eh, probably not. | 17:11 |
| Rohaq | hey folks, I've got fglrx drivers installed, compiz is working, but I'm having huge problems with stuttering when I try and run anything DirectX related under Wine. I asked the Wine channel, and it looks like direct rendering isn't working on my system | 17:11 |

| drew | how do i install emerald theme manager?? | 17:12 |

| juano__ | !hi | tek-ops: | 17:13 |
| ubotu | tek-ops:: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! | 17:13 |
| riotkittie | drew: open a term and sudo apt-get install emerald | 17:13 |
| tek-ops | hi, that's | 17:13 |
| UndertakerX2 | bulmer: i have no idea | 17:13 |
| Pici | juano__: please dont do that constantly. | 17:13 |
| tek-ops | !hi | 17:13 |
| r3n0c | it won't reinstall mesa | 17:13 |
| juano__ | Pici: nope, wrong nick that was | 17:13 |
| r3n0c | when i try to add the restricted ati driver | 17:13 |
| Pici | tek-ops: Whats the question? | 17:13 |
| juano__ | Pici: thats why i did it 2 times | 17:13 |
| tek-ops | just curious about people's experience with ubuntu and pae | 17:14 |
| bulmer | UndertakerX2-> is that where you have ubuntu installed? /dev/sda8 ? | 17:14 |
| UndertakerX2 | bulmer: let me check | 17:14 |
| tek-ops | we have a bunch of 32bit boxes and are considering building in PAE support | 17:14 |
| === Thecks----- is now known as Thecks | ||
| hardware-Rks | <MasterShrek> I found one named linux-image-2.6.22-14-server is that the kernel and do I need anything else for all my drivers to work? | 17:14 |
| drew | how do i make emerald start when the computer turns on?? | 17:15 |
| jheronimus | Hi, all. I've heard about new ubuntu's build service and that can be probably be the reason for me to switch back to ubuntu. The question is the following: I know, that it is supposed to be used for building sources of your own, but can it be used to build packages like alsa or linux kernel? | 17:15 |
| ArrPirate | drew: I think you do it in the sessions manager | 17:15 |
| juano__ | drew: system ---> preferences ----> sessions | 17:15 |
| r3n0c | when i try to install the 8.42 driver for my radeon mobility 2400hd, 1) the restricted driver manager doesn't realize that i need ati drivers | 17:15 |
| juano__ | drew: there in each session you can add any app for any session | 17:15 |
| r3n0c | so when try to install the 8.42.run then it doesn't replace mesa | 17:16 |
| filleokus | I have a problem with nvidia and my television hooked up to this machine. i have done some ediiting of my xorg.conf and so but when i boot boot it it overrides my edits and pops up some windows. | 17:16 |
| Andycasss | Is there a ftp monitor software which tells me when a user connects to my server (and maybe show me errors/info...) | 17:16 |
| tek-ops | PAE is used to allow for up to 64 GB of ram | 17:16 |
| MasterShrek | hardware-Rks, i would install any packages that has -2.6.22-14-server in its name (modules, source, etc) but as someone said there is no restricted-modules package for the -server kernel, so if you require that package, youll have to install those modules manually | 17:16 |
| tek-ops | with a limit of 4 GB per process | 17:16 |
| UndertakerX2 | bulmer: can i pm you? | 17:16 |
| Pars1 | these days i offer ubuntu to all my friends | 17:16 |
| bulmer | UndertakerX2-> am unregistered, i dont think I can respond back in pm in freenode | 17:16 |
| Dr_willis | Andycasss, you could always enable the logging features of your ftp server and have a 'tail -f /var/log/ftpserverlog' in a terminal. | 17:16 |
| UndertakerX2 | bulmer: your right i forgot | 17:17 |
| Iwanowitch | Okay, so I manager to compile ndiswrapper and load in a driver allright, but it won't connect or scan. What next? | 17:17 |
| soni1 | Anyone here had issues with sound in 7.10? | 17:17 |
| UndertakerX2 | bulmer: please give me a moment to sen you 2 screen shots | 17:17 |
| bulmer | UndertakerX2-> you can join me in #bulmer | 17:17 |
| r3n0c | i can't get the ati drivers to install with 7.10 | 17:17 |
| MasterShrek | Iwanowitch, what kind of card is it? | 17:18 |
| MasterShrek | r3n0c, what error are you receiving? | 17:18 |
| r3n0c | the restricted driver manager doesn't realize that i need ATI drivers | 17:18 |
| Areli1 | Hi all. I just installed Ubuntu next to Windows. How do i run the Windows i have installed in the Windows partition in VirtualBox? | 17:18 |
| r3n0c | so i can't replace mesa | 17:18 |
| Iwanowitch | MasterShrek: Broadcom 4318 chipset | 17:18 |
| praedor | anyone using fsfn on a sony vaio laptop? | 17:18 |
| r3n0c | and fix the resolution, i have a radeon 2400hd | 17:18 |
| MasterShrek | Iwanowitch, you dont need ndiswrapper, you just need firmware for your card, most broadcoms, including the 4318, are supported in-kernel now | 17:19 |
| MasterShrek | r3n0c, tried installing the driver from ati's website? | 17:19 |
| bulmer | Areli1-> turn on that virtual machine? | 17:19 |
| r3n0c | yeah, i dl'd the 8.42.run | 17:19 |
| r3n0c | and it installs, but when i try to run the aticonfig --initial | 17:19 |
| jrib | Arsanerit: echo $CLASSPATH | 17:19 |

| MasterShrek | Iwanowitch, http://www.mediafire.com/?bqn8x4eancv get that file and extract it to /lib/firmware (also make sure your bcm43xx driver isnt blacklisted, you may have done this following an ndiswrapper tutorial) also remove ndiswrapper | 17:20 |
| jheronimus | OK, another question. Does anybody here uses 7.10 on an HP PAvilion dv6500 laptop? | 17:20 |
| bthornton | aww he knows so much but doesn't know himself :( | 17:20 |
| Iwanowitch | MasterShrek: Restricted drivers management thing, right? I tried it, it didn't work. Though perhaps I didn't try hard enough (I remember ndiswrapper working before) | 17:20 |
| praedor | Anyone using a Sony Vaio laptop? | 17:20 |
| Iwanowitch | MasterShrek: will try, thanks. | 17:20 |

| r3n0c | i've tried following the tutorials for 7.10 but it doesn't work | 17:21 |
| bthornton | good call :) | 17:21 |

| MasterShrek | bthornton, is there really much of a difference from v3 to v4, a v3 guide should still mostly apply to a v4 setup | 17:22 |
| bthornton | if I wanted to compromise my system that badly, I'd just open up all my ports and install telnet again | 17:22 |
| boulba | hello all | 17:22 |
| pdm_ | how can i see my RAMS and their capacity for every slot ???? | 17:22 |

| MasterShrek | pdm_, cat /proc/meminfo | 17:22 |
| boulba | I can connect to remote machine via ssh, hox to use scp command to copy a remote file to my local machine ? | 17:23 |
| MasterShrek | boulba, i always used sshfs to mount over ssh, and then copy | 17:23 |
| praedor | No linux users actually using a Sony Vaio but me? | 17:23 |

| pdm_ | MasterShrek, what is max capacity | 17:24 |
| r3n0c | how do i make .run not open with gedit | 17:24 |
| r3n0c | do i need packages to open .run? | 17:25 |
| dolphin_noel | praedor there are a few there around the world i think lol | 17:25 |
| MasterShrek | pdm_, for a 32 bit desktop install it think its limited to 3gb, the server kernel will allow for > 3gb, you can also custom compile a kernel for >3gb support | 17:25 |
| praedor | dolphin_noel: apparently VERY few | 17:25 |
| MasterShrek | r3n0c, run it from a command line: ./filename.run | 17:26 |
| r3n0c | oo, ./ lol | 17:26 |
| bulmer | r3n0c-> you have to get off gui clicking..and start running things from command line :) | 17:26 |
| dolphin_noel | praedor ibm dell are probablly the best to linux users because they have everything thta can be work in linux | 17:26 |
| FluxD | Any suggestions for an mms stream player? | 17:26 |

| hardware-Rks | <MasterShrek> is the server kernel a 64 bit kernel? | 17:27 |
| MasterShrek | hardware-Rks, i think so, but the 64 bit desktop kernel should have support for >3gb ram afaik | 17:27 |

| keegan | neverblue: i dont understand.; the inbuild speakers work , when i plug in a ear phone on ubuntu . the ear phones dont give any sound and the speakers continue with the sound | 18:22 |
| keegan | it dosnt happen on vista so i know its working fine | 18:22 |
| neverblue | keegan, so speakers work, headphones dont ? | 18:23 |
| dahitokiri | how would i configure the process that basically automounts a usb drive (ipod/usb stick/hard drive) upon plugging the device in? | 18:23 |

| neverblue | by speaker I dont mean the onboard speaker, I mean a speaker you plug into your soundcard | 18:23 |
| mar77i | I mean something I could search through windows network folders and/or files | 18:24 |
| dahitokiri | mar77i, if you can mount the folders, you can search em as normal | 18:24 |
| keegan | neverblue: well its a laptop , if i plug speakers into my ear phone jack it dosnt work | 18:24 |
| Pici | mar77i: from the comand line? | 18:24 |
| mar77i | oh... right | 18:24 |
| keegan | neverblue: basically no out put from the earphone jack | 18:24 |
| neverblue | keegan, that helps to know... so you sound card, you need to change the volume to your sound card (possibly the issue) | 18:25 |

| neverblue | keegan, there is a speaker by your 'clock', usually.... | 18:26 |
| dahitokiri | how would i configure the process that basically automounts a usb drive (ipod/usb stick/hard drive) upon plugging the device in? | 18:26 |
| keegan | amarok | 18:26 |
| Pici | amilo: use `asoundconf list` and `asoundconf set-default-card` | 18:26 |
| poeloq | Does anybody know of any good ebay software for linux? | 18:26 |
| amilo | pici: there is a little tool it worked for me dont you know the name or is it asoundconf i check | 18:26 |
| mar77i | Pici: I don't see the mountings from bash | 18:26 |
| neverblue | keegan, ok, when you enter 'volume control'. you want to make sure you check file/change device, you may have more than one listed | 18:27 |
| CatsceoSSH | shouldn't they be in /media? | 18:27 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !sound | 18:27 |
| ubotu | If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer).

| jalompuhr | i got a question | 19:01 |
| jalompuhr | why is it that users may not use root as their login? | 19:02 |
| Pici | !sudo | jalompuhr please read this | 19:02 |
| ubotu | jalompuhr please read this: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information. | 19:02 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Mark761966: http://files.filefront.com/reconstructor+261targz/;9113555;/fileinfo.html | 19:02 |

| jalompuhr | well, sudo doesnt work well | 19:03 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !root | 19:03 |
| ubotu | Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 19:03 |

| kerik | can anybody tell me which folder I should save before I format my desk? | 19:07 |
| TFrog | Arelis, just use google and search for FireFox speedups. it's how i found many pages dedicated to it | 19:07 |
| kerik | disk even | 19:07 |
| MystaMax | Arelis, is firefox slow to load pages? | 19:08 |

| kerik | Vandalite, lol....yeah...it's my special move ;) | 19:08 |
| Radi01 | should be if it is set | 19:08 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Radi01: I already suggested that it was not Firefox as much as his connection speed | 19:09 |

| agruman | anyone here that have got a Ati HD2600XT working ok with playback? I get terrible tearing, just want to confirm that it works for someone. (using latest fglrx driver) | 19:09 |
| Radi01 | oh ok sorry | 19:09 |
| TFrog | anyone know if there will be any updates to the fglrx drivers in the repositories? it seems the repository drivers are the only ones that will work on my laptop. i can't get the latest ATI drivers to work on this laptop | 19:09 |
| dahitokiri | geirha, thats what i'm thinking too. i know the noauto flag would potentially be involved. but i don't know how to distinguish the drive from all other drives as at one point it can be /dev/sda and at another, it can be /dev/sdb | 19:09 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Radi01: Np He ignored it anyway | 19:09 |
| Radi01 | lol typical | 19:09 |
| MystaMax | kerik, /home/kerik, assuming your login name is kerik | 19:09 |
| Arelis | MystaMax: not really | 19:09 |
| Jack_Sparrow | dahitokiri: uuid shoud take care of that part | 19:09 |
| MystaMax | Arelis, then what is slow | 19:09 |
| Arelis | MystaMax: but it just makes the computer slower and the browser itself is slow | 19:09 |
| kerik | MystaMax, thanks a lot mate! | 19:09 |

| agruman | TFrog whats the output in xorg log? Id bet the kernel module isnt loaded or the wrong one is | 19:13 |
| Alyxander | if i could get her to just say yes id be great no more having to fix the stupid BSoD | 19:13 |
| tim2 | I am aware of the webmail workaround, I am more interested in whether this is a known bug or a single instance | 19:13 |
| Radi01 | Alyx: Do it in secret and tell her it was an update. | 19:13 |
| mihaX14 | lol | 19:13 |
| TFrog | haven't tried that since a reload. probably don't have that log anymore. however, if i try it again, i'll look at that specifically. | 19:13 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Alyxander: set it to dual boot, when she has a problem, let her know she can still get online with UB and you will be there to fix MS in a couple days. It worked for a couple of my familymembers | 19:14 |
| agruman | TFrog the guide worked ok for me, though the symlink stage (ln /lib.../misc /lib.../volatile) is just bad, skip that and just do a "depmod -a" instead and you will be fine | 19:14 |
| TFrog | ty agruman | 19:14 |
| TFrog | that also is a possibility | 19:14 |
| jalompuhr | tim2: well, you need to read the source code then | 19:14 |
| agruman | TFrog np | 19:14 |
| Alyxander | right on Jack_Sparrow | 19:14 |
| TFrog | maybe in a week or two once things settle down here i'll give it another go | 19:15 |

| Jack_Sparrow | symtab: Where did you get the upgrade? | 19:20 |
| TFrog | lol agruman. agreed. but the people with the mesa project have been working with ati so it will only get better. now if i can only find a good replacement for MS Frontpage since i don't know html or other web based code. i get that then it's bye bye windows for good. though i'll have to support it as a certified tech | 19:20 |

| mrpockets | hey guys. I'm having sound issues again | 19:22 |
| jalompuhr | mrpockets: what problem? | 19:22 |
| mrpockets | if i've got onboard 5.1 as well as a SB audigy 5.1 card | 19:22 |
| mrpockets | do i need to disable the onboard card? | 19:22 |
| TFrog | you and me both. i did get some info from someone here for a person like me who doesn't do html. it might work with Quanta | 19:22 |
| Sardukar | Where do people go to sell e-mail addresses? | 19:23 |
| Jack_Sparrow | mrpockets: Probably better if you did | 19:23 |

| Jack_Sparrow | Sardukar: not worth the effort... and NOT appreciated in here | 19:23 |
| mihaX14 | When I'm playing music for example on xmms, sound doesn't work in browser or anywhere else. Sound works only in the first thing that broadcasts audio. | 19:23 |
| mrpockets | lol never woulda thought of that | 19:23 |
| cool | Sardukar, HELL!! | 19:24 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !sound | 19:24 |
| ubotu | If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer).

| stuart | oh. straightforward enough. thanks. | 19:32 |
| Andycasss | Okay, but how do i add a switch to pureftp? like this: -l puredb:/path/to/puredb_file | 19:32 |
| zylmak | thanks lousygarua | 19:32 |
| akincer | I fixed it by manually coding the correct MAC for the remote IP | 19:32 |
| _nix_ | stuart: you might want to check out the dependencies with dpkg -I <filename> | 19:33 |

| ubotu | Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 19:40 |

| nelsondiaze | ok, gracias | 20:19 |
| Ubmin | davubuntu: i would logout of gnome, switch to the console and login, then remove your compiz dot-directories and try logging into X again | 20:19 |
| davubuntu | ubmin: or I could jut go to Ctrl + Alt + F1 | 20:19 |
| Ubmin | davubuntu: yes, that's what the console is :) | 20:19 |
| Ubmin | gnome-gnew: you will need to change the DefaultRoot from /var/www to ~ | 20:20 |
| elliotjhug | Hi all, any ideas on how to change the default app that opens when I plug my iPod in? Right now its Rhythmbox - but ideally it'd be banshee | 20:20 |
| Ubmin | Ubmin: as long as it's set to ~, then yes, it will limit him only to /var/www/johnny-files | 20:21 |
| Ubmin | Ubmin: if it's set to /var/www, then he has access to all of /var/www | 20:21 |
| cool | elliotjhug, System>preferences> preferred applications | 20:22 |

| Ubmin | gnome-gnew: the problem, however, is that proftpd is IP-based, as it is a limitation of the ftp protocol itself | 20:24 |
| iamben_ | im trying to install flashplugin-nonfree, i need to do it through my proxy... i set the proxy in synaptic but when it goes to fetch the file it doesnt use the proxy... ideas? | 20:24 |

| jalompuhr | is there a way to format a harddrive and leave the os running in the memory? | 20:24 |
| Ubmin | gnome-gnew: as long as your virtual domains reside on their own IP and they're not sharing the same IP together, then it will work. | 20:24 |
| AdeptSix | It's not there. | 20:24 |

| uk-emperor | has anyone found that the ubuntu boot screen causes the screen to go blank? | 20:27 |
| === uk-emperor is now known as incorrect | ||
| Ubmin | incorrect: blank? | 20:27 |
| Ubmin | i've seen the screen go blank, but the light on the monitor typically remains in a solid green state | 20:28 |
| incorrect | you have to remove the 'splash' option | 20:28 |
| Ubmin | eventually it changes | 20:28 |
| davubuntu | ubmin: do think it would be called .xcompmgrrc ? | 20:28 |
| incorrect | it does something very nasty to the video card so x doesn't display | 20:28 |
| laurent_ | jump | 20:28 |
| Slart | gnome-gnew: are you just setting up a ftp-server? | 20:29 |
| incorrect | however if you keep in a text mode before going to x everything is fine | 20:29 |
| gnome-gnew | Ubmin > that doesn't help - it controls the reverse of what i need to; johnny needs full access to his subdirectory... and only to his subdir | 20:29 |
| Slart | gnome-gnew: pure-ftp handles virtual users if that's all you want | 20:29 |
| incorrect | i have a gf8800gts | 20:29 |
| Ubmin | incorrect: using what video card and what driver? | 20:29 |
| Niche25 | Hey everyone!! | 20:29 |
| Ubmin | gnome-gnew: you still haven't answered if the virtual domain has its own IP or not - that's the deciding factor | 20:30 |
| Niche25 | How is everyone doing today? | 20:30 |
| incorrect | Ubmin, well doesn't matter what drive, as this is kernel level | 20:30 |
| CyberCod | I'm getting kernel panic lockup whenever the screensaver comes on... can anyone help me with this? | 20:30 |
| Ubmin | incorrect: tell me what drivers you've used | 20:30 |

| erUSUL | cool: ogg | 20:31 |
| Niche25 | I am the newest - biggest fan of Ubuntu | 20:31 |
| cool | Ubmin, i have my songs library, was think of converting it OGG | 20:31 |
| Ubmin | gnome-gnew: okay, then it's possible - just set the virtual domain ip to limit access to only the user johnny and default his root to ~, it should remain independent of the other unix users, just make sure you set it all in the <VirtualHost> directive | 20:31 |
| cool | but someone said aac is goof | 20:31 |
| Pici | !doesntwork | DB42 | 20:32 |
| ubotu | DB42: 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. | 20:32 |
| Niche25 | finally got it exactly the way I wanted it, way better than anything out there. I had been using Fedora6,7,8 after leaving Vista | 20:32 |
| Ubmin | cool: do you play them on an ipod or anything? | 20:32 |

| ubotu | If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 20:53 |
| Jack_Sparrow | kael_: I know it is temping to do it... and if it worked.. great.. but it does cause other issues | 20:53 |
| Seeeb | how can i see at what mhz my cpu is currently running ? | 20:54 |
| kael_ | Jack_Sparrow, is it possible to delete all nvidia kernel modules? | 20:54 |
| soundray | I am planning to compile a 2.6.24 kernel for a gutsy system. If you've done it, I would be interested in your experiences. | 20:54 |
| soundray | Seeeb: cat /proc/cpuinfo | 20:54 |
| RoyK | Jack_Sparrow: I've tried a few things including presetting drivers and so on, but still it doesn't like me or whatever's wrong | 20:54 |
| Seeeb | thx | 20:54 |
| Jack_Sparrow | kael_: It goes deeper than just that.. sorry.. I cant be of any help | 20:54 |
| erUSUL | Seeeb: add the cpu freq applet toyour panel | 20:54 |
| Ubmin | kael_: did you not check restricted drivers yet? | 20:55 |
| MOX_NOX | Hi, somebody know how fix that?: alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device | 20:55 |
| kael_ | Jack_Sparrow, too bad, i'll try to find a solution and will post it on a forum... any ideas or tips on what it does exactly? | 20:55 |
| [pho] | please does anyone know anything about how to get video playback when enabling compiz-fusion on a 965GM chipset | 20:55 |
| Seeeb | it says 1000 mhz. but i have a 1,83 cpu. how can i disable the dynamic switching ? | 20:55 |
| kael_ | Jack_Sparrow, maybe i should edit the envy files to look at the scripts | 20:55 |
| Jack_Sparrow | kael_: read the link under automatix.. it tells more than you will want to know | 20:55 |
| Ubmin | MOX_NOX: apt-get install alsa-oss | 20:56 |
| NET||abuse | goddamn?? i just plugged in a HP L1502 monitor, to my laptop, which has intel 915GM chipset, i can't drag windows over to the other screen properly, what's gone wrong? | 20:56 |
| bzwingzero | Does anybody know if there are any quake-style terminal emulators that work with compiz-fusion? | 20:56 |
| soundray | Seeeb: please don't disable frequency scaling. It does it for a reason. | 20:56 |
| NET||abuse | I just used the screens and graphics control to configure it. | 20:56 |
| kael_ | Jack_Sparrow, didnt understand, sorry me poor french ignorant... lol, what were u talking about plz? | 20:56 |
| [pho] | are my messages invisible? | 20:56 |
| [pho] | has anyone sucessfully been able to use compiz-fusion with video playback on an intel 965GM chipset??? | 20:56 |

| Jack_Sparrow | !automatix | 20:56 |
| ubotu | automatix is not recommended, supported or needed. See http://mjg59.livejournal.com/77440.html and « /msg ubotu WorksForMe » | 20:56 |
| Ubmin | Jack_Sparrow: it would be preferable if you didn't act like that toward other users. | 20:56 |
| Seeeb | soundray: :-) | 20:56 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Ubmin: Like what | 20:57 |
| soundray | Seeeb: just run a cpu-intensive process and it will scale up | 20:57 |
| [pho] | i guess not... | 20:57 |
| Ubmin | Jack_Sparrow: like that. | 20:57 |
| NET||abuse | [pho], i'm on 915GM and i have no trouble with most video, just not great playback under certain circumstances | 20:57 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Ubmin: Like what | 20:57 |
| Ubmin | kael_: just click on System->Administration->Restricted drivers | 20:57 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Ubmin: Provide an example .. | 20:57 |
| Seeeb | soundray: yes but there must be some way to set it higher or lower. since if i use my lappy on battery i dont want him to go over 800mhz or sth | 20:57 |

| Ubmin | kael_: ok, did you actually remove the nvidia driver? | 20:58 |
| TuxOtaku | lsusb shows that the receiver is there | 20:58 |
| kael_ | Ubmin, yes but i installed the new one, with the original nvidia script installer | 20:58 |
| TuxOtaku | but the mous isn't being recognized | 20:59 |
| TuxOtaku | *mouse | 20:59 |
| soundray | Seeeb: if you install laptop-mode-tools, you can set the frequency governor for additional control over freq. scaling. | 20:59 |
| Ubmin | kael_: that's the problem - you never EVER need to use the original nvidia installer | 20:59 |
| Ubmin | Jack_Sparrow: this is why. | 20:59 |
| bzwingzero | Does anybody know if there are any quake-style terminal emulators that work with compiz-fusion? | 20:59 |

| aref | Hi. I attached a second screen to my laptop. This resulted in all screen configs going down the drain. Now it cant even detect my default laptop screen right, and Im stuck with 640x480. Any tips on how to fix this? | 21:05 |
| kael_ | Ubmin, what do you think about purge the restricted modules, and manually deleting the files related to nvidia in /lib/modules/2.6.22-14-generic/kernel/drivers/video/nvidia ?? | 21:05 |
| sahak | Does Gnome 2.20 use .gnome and .gnome_private folders anymore? or does it use .gnome2 and .gnome2_private instead? | 21:05 |

| Jack_Sparrow | RoyK: Sorry but working on another problem | 21:08 |
| RoyK | Jack_Sparrow: yeah - I tried both alsa and oss and the plain driver | 21:08 |
| soundray | vis: actually, you can start in single user mode -- but then you get a root login only. | 21:08 |
| vis | soundray, thing is.. I have a nVidia GeForce 6600 GT, which prevents me from getting to the login-screen. The screen just turns black and the comp freezes.. | 21:09 |
| ror | seriously though, it's gotta be an untapped niche; you only need to google "diet planner" or "exercise planner" to see there's a ton of crackpot/"shareware" (always with the likes of "pro" after the name) software out there which are basically just spreadsheets | 21:09 |

| ikonia | bmod: how did you setup your screen | 21:12 |
| bmod | ikonia: nvidia drivers | 21:12 |
| ikonia | bmod: nvidia-settings ? | 21:12 |

| ikonia | bmod: nvidia drivers is not how you set it up | 21:12 |
| Ubmin | kael_: are you sure? try rebooting... | 21:12 |
| ikonia | bmod: nvidia-settings does not always right to the config file | 21:12 |
| ikonia | write | 21:13 |
| soundray | vis: don't be scared by what Ubmin said. It's safe to try dpkg-reconfigure in recovery mode | 21:13 |
| bmod | ikonia: i noticed, but it gives me a 'preview' and i copied that onto xorg.conf | 21:13 |

| soundray | Ubmin: it could have come across as that, though, because your "wrong way to..." came directly after my recommendation. | 21:14 |
| bmod | ikonia: you recommend the new gtk-iforgotthename tool? | 21:14 |
| amilo_2 | thx | 21:14 |
| ikonia | bmod no, I recommend using "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" and using a static configuration from that | 21:15 |
| NET||abuse | ikonia, and i plugged in a HP1502 15" lcd into the external VGA | 21:15 |
| ikonia | NET||abuse: sounds reasonable | 21:15 |
| jaybird7 | The Dual Boot guide talks about using EasyBCD to get dual booting to work.. but it doesnt say what i should do with it? also how would i reverse this change if i mess everything up, will the recovery disks for Vista return whatever i do to this back to what it was default? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBoot please and thank you | 21:15 |
| Ubmin | soundray: i suppose so, although if the user in question doesn't have a problem differentiating sources, then that would be an improbable assumption | 21:15 |
| ikonia | jaybird7: where does it say that ? | 21:15 |
| ikonia | jaybird7: what guide | 21:15 |
| ikonia | jaybird7: I've not seen a guide that says to not use the ubuntu install cd | 21:15 |
| NET||abuse | Ok, so i setup the conifg on Screens & Graphics under System->Admin, all looks correct there | 21:15 |
| bmod | ikonia, does that use the nvidia software or the opensource version? | 21:15 |

| ikonia | NET||abuse: ok | 21:16 |
| soundray | I am planning to compile a 2.6.24 kernel for a gutsy system. If you've done it, I would be interested in your experiences. | 21:16 |

| jaybird7 | ikonia : please check the link i showed under where it says boot record and boot manager | 21:16 |
| ikonia | jaybird7: I didn't see the link, it scrolled | 21:16 |
| NET||abuse | but, i can't drag windows all the way onto that screen, it won't let any window leave the primary screen, it does flow over to the other screen to my right, the resolution is correct, however, there is a few pixel (maybe 100 or so) missing section of the windows like the workspace isn't nitted together properly across both screens | 21:16 |

| Jack_Sparrow | vis: I am running out of ideas... Try a livecd feisty or whatever.. hit F6 at the start or install screen and type noapic it should get you to a desktop | 21:50 |
| krim_ | ghata1: Heard good stuff about mencoder, can't say anything about it though. I recommend checking out doom9.org for anything that has to do with video. | 21:50 |
| dmb | is there a way to disable the hpet time support without rebuilding the kernel? | 21:50 |

| shenron | twey, that is a really old kernel | 21:50 |
| NET||abuse | i've been trying out the screen & graphics gnome xinerama config,, and yeh, it's no use, it firstly only knows how with i810 chipset, which sucks as i want to use intel, and then it borks out my gnome session when i tried to boot into the setup;. | 21:50 |
| vis | thanks for the help ;) | 21:50 |
| ghata1 | Twey: I am talking about alternatives to Ulead studio, i dont mind paying for it as well. | 21:50 |
| shenron | the current kernel is 2.6.22 in ubuntu gutsy, twey | 21:51 |
| kane77 | Twey, that is kind of old :/ | 21:51 |
| Jack_Sparrow | vis: I know the 6600 works... and that is all the canges I made to the command line | 21:51 |
| NET||abuse | i took copies of my pre and post reconfig'd xorg.conf, the gnome tool does some funky hoodoo on it. | 21:51 |
| Twey | shenron: /etc/debian-version says testing/unstable | 21:51 |
| bmod | ghata1: i used cinelerra (if i spell that right) | 21:51 |
| Twey | Ah! | 21:51 |
| bmod | ghata1: that's a editing package | 21:51 |
| Twey | kane77: It would appear to be Dapp.p | 21:51 |
| shenron | twey how about you post your /etc/apt/sources.list somewhere | 21:51 |
| NET||abuse | would anyone be able to have a look at the results with me and figure out a way to use the intel driver perhaps? or just use dual monitor somehow with my existing hardware? | 21:51 |
| Twey | kane77: Dapper** | 21:51 |
| ghata1 | bmod: have you used ulead, just trying to find out how good is it as compared to ulead | 21:51 |
| Twey | shenron: ^ | 21:51 |

| gnutron | amilo_2 - install aumixer or check your sound property/preferences and insure the headphones option is visisble AND un-muted. an alsa tool should work. | 21:54 |
| krim | m13: That guide looks a bit outdated, Pidgin let's you choose Google Talk right away now doesn't it? | 21:54 |
| kane77 | Twey, then you might try to google for pylons package for dapper.. but I'm not too optimistic... | 21:54 |
| MystaMax | np | 21:54 |
| kane77 | krim, not mine :/ | 21:55 |
| m13 | krim, yes, and i cant connect | 21:55 |
| shenron | twey, you might consider reinstalling ubuntu on it with a later version | 21:55 |
| erUSUL | m13: check the use tsl/ssl on advanced tab the server is talk.google.com | 21:55 |
| m13 | done that | 21:55 |
| amilo_2 | gnutron: hm no package aumixer and where is that sound property? in system menu? | 21:55 |
| Twey | shenron: I don't have physical access to the server | 21:55 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !sound | 21:55 |
| ubotu | If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 21:55 |

| krim | kane77: Same thing :) | 21:56 |
| bmod | kane77 is jabber a global network like m$n? | 21:56 |
| Twey | shenron: Yes | 21:56 |
| m13 | on guide it says i should just type email addres name, not @xxx.com | 21:56 |
| MystaMax | can someone tell me how to log off a user remotely? | 21:56 |

| mmkassem | m13: what did you use for the screen name? | 21:56 |
| gnutron | amilo_2 - right click on the speaker icon, look in there for prefs/options for staters. | 21:56 |

| drizzit | Ciao | 22:11 |
| Scunizi | ikonia, just reitterating what you've been saying to him. sounded like he wasn't getting the gist of it. | 22:11 |
| gnutron | amilo_2 - open synaptic and search for alsa. install some alsa tools from ubuntu packages to help configure this. it's very common to need to tweak sound devices. but it's 'doable' 99 per cent of the time. | 22:11 |
| bmod | would someone care to look into my xorg.conf and see what might be wrong there? http://www.vectorcycle.com/depot/xorg.conf.nvidia | 22:12 |

| NET||abuse | this is pants.. why is it still, even now, soo difficult to get a working multi monitor setup under xserver.. | 22:12 |
| ikonia | bmod I've told you what to do to fix it | 22:12 |
| amilo_2 | gnutron: ok i install everything starting with alsa :) | 22:12 |
| kane77 | rayb0t, what's that game? | 22:12 |
| rayb0t | eve | 22:12 |
| ikonia | NET||abuse: it is unless you do it by hand | 22:13 |
| gnutron | amilo_2 - fyi - im using the alsa volume control for an SB Live junk soundcard. so, anything can work given time. | 22:13 |
| Scunizi | Tzarak, to find the solution to the problem you need to look at the bug report and see if they mention the solution. | 22:13 |
| bmod | ikonia, yes, but i still have to add a screen by hand, don't i? | 22:13 |
| Shadow147 | well The Mana World games is fun | 22:13 |

| gnutron | kane77 - ive used games, i call it ms windows. ;) | 22:14 |
| Scunizi | Tzarak, then there currently is no solution. | 22:15 |
| bmod | ikonia, so it does more than probing and writing to xorg.conf? | 22:15 |
| amilo_2 | gnutron: there is no "cdrom volume"... | 22:15 |
| Shadow147 | I like windows for some games for ones I can't get for linux | 22:15 |

| boulba | how to dump my BIOS ? | 22:18 |
| Tzarak | Scunizi some idea about solution ? | 22:18 |
| gnutron | amilo_2 - since regular sound works, i think its strictly a muting problem, resolved by software un-muting or adjustments. | 22:18 |
| vis | argim06, http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ports/releases/7.10/release/ | 22:18 |
| bmod | ikonia, they're both plugged in | 22:18 |
| Silmeria | ug i have to go finish up some stuff before i have to leave | 22:18 |
| Silmeria | ill be back later | 22:18 |
| ikonia | bmod then unplug one for a minute | 22:18 |
| kane77 | Silmeria, do you have correct refresh rate? | 22:18 |
| amilo_2 | gnutron: i see but i don't know what to unmute here... | 22:18 |
| kjm | is it possible to mount read/write to HFS formatted drive? | 22:18 |
| amilo_2 | gnutron: everything isn't muted already.. | 22:18 |
| argim06 | thinks i have already downloaded xubuntu but i can't install it on my Mac G | 22:19 |
| Shadow147 | have burned the iso into a cd | 22:19 |
| bmod | ikonia, i agree that the output looks much cleaner | 22:19 |

| spiffman | hello all | 22:21 |
| clarjon1 | Sorry about that. | 22:21 |
| Mark761966 | Is there a good reason gparted has never worked for me? | 22:22 |
| bmod | ikonia, so tell me, what is the big difference between those two xorg.confs i created now | 22:22 |
| B-rabbit | hi everyone, Q: can anyone explain to me what Linux-swap is plz | 22:22 |
| jose3l3l | i was wondering if ubuntu is secure out of the box or if there is anything specific that should be done after initial install | 22:22 |
| spiffman | ok, so I just installed ubuntu 7.10 64 bit (first time in linux), and i can't install a vast majority of packages, including xchat (i'm on a macbook). The forums say that almost every application is supported, did i miss a step in installation? | 22:23 |
| rayb0t | B-rabbit, virtual RAM on your hard drive | 22:23 |
| Mark761966 | It's a partition used for extra RAM | 22:23 |
| m55_ | which filesystem is the most friendly to file recovery/undelete and has journaling? | 22:23 |
| pike_ | B-rabbit: like the page file in windows | 22:23 |
| gnutron | B-rabbit - its a swap file, a virtual one. its very helpful/needed. | 22:23 |
| Tzarak | a extra time for your KISS | 22:23 |
| Lunks | !kernel | 22:23 |
| ubotu | The core of the Ubuntu Operating System is the Linux kernel: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel - You shouldn't have to compile your own, but if you're convinced you do, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile - For more: /msg ubotu stages | 22:23 |
| Ubmin | B-rabbit: are you familiar with windows virtual memory? | 22:23 |
| kamelion | spiffman: try to enable all the applications, default are only ubuntu maintained packages | 22:23 |
| clarjon1 | B-rabbit: LInux swap is used for extra ram. It's sorta like windows' virtual memory file, except it doesn't grow to fill up your hard drive. | 22:23 |
| spiffman | i mean, it says every application from 32 bit is supported in 64 bit, supposedly | 22:23 |
| * kane77 wanted to say something about swap but all the other guys are just so much faster :) | 22:24 | |
| nick_ | anyway to get beryl to work with gusty? :O | 22:24 |
| Ubmin | B-rabbit: it doesn't grow by default, anyway | 22:24 |
| kjm | spiffman - why did you install 64 bit? Isn't the macbook a 32 bit processor? | 22:24 |
| Mark761966 | Actually it's when all the Linux guys get together and treade stuff | 22:24 |
| Mark761966 | trade | 22:24 |
| gnutron | nick - beryl has been eliminated in favor of compiz | 22:24 |
| Ubmin | Mark761966: ROFL | 22:24 |
| spiffman | kjm: on another computer, dell vostro with a chip that supports 64 bit | 22:25 |
| richo | How can i disable/delete startup sector or so? Got an old disc with Ubuntu hairy hedgehog on. Need some data from that disc but when i insert it it seems like startup on both discs seem to wanna be active or so. = cant boot any of them ;) When i take away any of them i can boot the one that still inserted. | 22:25 |
| * magnetron barters with Mark761966 | 22:25 | |

| askand | What is the recommended way of installing ATI drivers? | 22:25 |
| amilo_2 | gnutron: no help | 22:25 |
| bmod | what's "UseFBDev" ? | 22:25 |
| Mark761966 | I have an old radio controlled K9, Magnetron | 22:25 |
| kjm | spiffman - then I don't understand why you specified you are on a macbook. | 22:25 |
| preaction_ | !ati | askand | 22:25 |
| ubotu | askand: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 22:25 |
| amilo_2 | gnutron: i give up, thanks | 22:25 |
| magnetron | askand: the restricted drivers manager | 22:25 |
| Ubmin | bmod: that's for using the framebuffer as a conduit to display X on the screen | 22:25 |
| kjm | spiffman - he means enable the universe repositories. | 22:25 |
| spiffman | kjm: lol because i said that i couldn't install xchat | 22:25 |
| gnutron | amilo_2 - re-starting X may be necessary | 22:25 |
| kane77 | richo, you can use dd to rewrite the MBR... | 22:25 |
| gnutron | kane77 - yes, very carefully | 22:26 |
| richo | kane77: ok ill man it | 22:26 |
| amilo_2 | gnutron: oh. | 22:26 |
| kjm | spiffman - as a result of the 64 bit install? or because you are on a macbook.... | 22:26 |
| bmod | Ubmin, the buffer on the video card? | 22:26 |
| eido | what directory are the application files to execute located in...downloaded pftp and it does not appear in applications list ...trying to add it manually , is there a default location where the executing file would be? | 22:26 |
| kane77 | richo, but be careful! | 22:26 |
| Ubmin | !framebuffer | bmod | 22:26 |
| ubotu | bmod: If you would like information on framebuffers, please visit: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FrameBuffer | 22:26 |
| crdlb | eido: run: "dpkg -L pftp" | 22:26 |
| dn | anyone have a samsung e900 phone? | 22:27 |
| crdlb | that will tell you all files in the package | 22:27 |
| spiffman | kjm: i can't install xchat on the 64 bit ubuntu, and meant that, btw i am on irc because i'm using another computer | 22:27 |
| Mark761966 | Is it possible to have a distro that can work on any computer that has enough RAM and hard disc space? | 22:27 |
| richo | kane77: well ok. is it like fdisk or? | 22:27 |
| spiffman | kjm: and i'm very new to this, i apologize, but what does enabling universal repositories mean? | 22:27 |
| crdlb | eido: did you install it from the repositories? | 22:27 |
| CajunTechie | Hello everyone. How can I automatically bring up a network interface when I start my computer? I'm pretty new to Linux on the desktop and can't find anyting on Google. | 22:27 |
| rome0s | /etc/network | 22:28 |
| kjm | spiffman - I'm sorry; my brain isn't working well...........but, I understand you now. :P | 22:28 |
| CajunTechie | Thanks rome0 :-) | 22:28 |
| Mark761966 | It means you open software sources and tick the box marked Universal | 22:28 |
| askand | magnetron: Ok..cause I got troubles when I did..I couldnt use opengl direct rendering | 22:28 |
| Mark761966 | Simple really | 22:28 |
| rome0s | is it a wireless interface? | 22:28 |
| === m55_ is now known as m55 | ||
| CajunTechie | Yes it is. But it's not wifi0. It's under ath0 | 22:28 |
| kjm | Spiffman - read through this http://monkeyblog.org/ubuntu/installing/ It should sort you out. | 22:29 |
| kane77 | richo, no you should specify the input and output and tell it to overwrite first 512 bytes | 22:29 |
| bmod | in xorg.conf, do i have to specify 2 "Device"s (one for each display) ? | 22:29 |
| kane77 | richo, I'll get you the script | 22:29 |
| Ubmin | !wifi | CajunTechie | 22:29 |
| ubotu | CajunTechie: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 22:29 |
| rome0s | ok you have to edit the file /etc/network/interfaces | 22:29 |
| Mark761966 | Is there a way to run gparted so that you can actually, you know, PARTITION? | 22:30 |
| CajunTechie | Cool. Sounds simple enough | 22:30 |
| LucianIndy | I followed https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP?highlight=%28php%29 to the T. However, I try to run a php script an I get Internet Server Error 500. How do I fix this so I can run php scripts? | 22:30 |
| eido | crdlb: installed it through synaptic | 22:30 |
| crdlb | eido: then dpkg -L <packagename> will work | 22:30 |
| Ubmin | Mark761966: how is it not partitioning? | 22:30 |
| Agent_bob | i think i have found a hardware combonation that linux can't boot ;/ | 22:31 |
| richo | kane77: ok... isn't it possible to tell disc via fdisk to not be boot? Seems easier if its working | 22:31 |
| rome0s | can someone give me a hand with ACPI on a TOSHIBA laptop? | 22:31 |
| kane77 | richo, might be... | 22:31 |
| Mark761966 | Well, none of the controls actually work | 22:31 |
| spiffman | ok let me be more specific: if i try sudo apt-get install xchat, it lists the dependency tcl8.4 and says that it is "not installable". in the aptitude gui, a ton of programs say not installable with the reason "your computer (amd64) is not supported" | 22:31 |
| rome0s | my Fn keys don't work | 22:31 |
| Ubmin | Mark761966: and i suppose, more importantly, what user did you run it as? | 22:31 |
| ThuLex | hello | 22:31 |
| ThuLex | i have a question | 22:31 |
| ThuLex | i have put ubuntu on my usb key and have booted it | 22:31 |
| CookedGryphon | Hi, quick question, does anyone know if its possible to modify clearlooks so that vertical scrollbars don't appear at all? Say by setting the width to 0 or something | 22:31 |
| LucianIndy | !question | ThuLex | 22:31 |
| ubotu | ThuLex: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :) | 22:31 |
| Mark761966 | I just opened it from the applications menu | 22:31 |
| kane77 | richo, sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/hda bs=512 count=1 | 22:31 |
| ThuLex | when i boot it it says theres a problem with the users and the GNOME Manager | 22:32 |
| Ubmin | spiffman: with gusty? | 22:32 |
| === Visoni is now known as Neoxeekhrobe | ||
| Mark761966 | I aslo tried opening it as root | 22:32 |
| kane77 | !enter | ThuLex | 22:32 |
| ubotu | ThuLex: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 22:32 |
| richo | thx kane77lets see if i can f%ck up my disc then ;) | 22:32 |
| Mark761966 | Same thing both times | 22:32 |
| ThuLex | then a blueish screen comes up and asks me to type in a username and password, how do i fix this? | 22:32 |
| Mark761966 | All the control icons were greyed out | 22:32 |
| spiffman | Ubmin: yes | 22:32 |
| kane77 | richo, but once again.. be careful.. (this SHOULD do the thing...) | 22:32 |
| spiffman | I updated/upgraded everything | 22:32 |
| richo | hehe yeah np. its not like i got the cure on cancer on the disc | 22:33 |

| Joshooa | I turned off IPv6 and might have to update my wireless card driver but when I tried doing what the instructions said it didn't work | 22:33 |
| krim | ThuLex: Try to keep your question in one message instead of splitting it up into several, makes it easier for people to read and help you | 22:33 |
| rome0s | what's the problem bobo79 | 22:34 |
| eido | crdlb: I can do this through Synaptic also by looking at the properties of the installed app...but what is the file I need to point to or does it change depending on the permissions of the file...i.e. exe is a windows file you would point to to run the app | 22:34 |
| bobo79 | rome0s: i need to forward smtp like computer -> internet -> nat -> linux -> external ip | 22:34 |
| KI4IKL|Laptop | What is a good full featured irc server I can use in ubuntu? I would like to have services too. | 22:34 |
| Toodles | ubuntu doesnt seem to suppurt duel cors at all rome0s | 22:34 |
| Neoxeekhrobe | Guys can I change the size of my home folder and folders where I install programms after installing Ubuntu? | 22:34 |
| crdlb | eido: it'll usually be in /usr/bin/ | 22:34 |
| KI4IKL|Laptop | !ircd | 22:34 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about ircd - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 22:34 |
| crdlb | or sometimes /usr/sbin/ | 22:34 |
| rome0s | from your computer? | 22:34 |
| bobo79 | from the linux machine | 22:34 |
| Joshooa | Neoxeekhrobe: have you tried GParted to change the partition size? | 22:34 |
| rome0s | you mean through | 22:34 |
| Neoxeekhrobe | No | 22:34 |
| Joshooa | Neoxeekhrobe: I think you could do that | 22:34 |
| kane77 | Neoxeekhrobe, you have them on separate partitions? | 22:34 |
| rome0s | ok | 22:35 |
| rome0s | wait | 22:35 |
| bobo79 | rome0s: so anything incoming on port 25 is sent to an external IP for SMTP (UDP) | 22:35 |
| Agent_bob | ThuLex login to a console and check that /dev/null is a char. dev. as opposed to a reg. file | 22:35 |
| zetheroo | is it possible to install Windows XP Pro as a dual boot alongside Ubuntu after I have already installed Ubuntu ? | 22:35 |

| maxime | i just installed ubuntu! :) | 22:35 |
| Joshooa | Is anybody good and troubleshooting wireless networks? | 22:35 |
| ThuLex | Mark761966: I downloaded Ubuntu 7.10 and burnt it on a disc, I then booted it off a disc and followed a tutorial to put it and boot it off my USB Key (tutorial: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent), the problem is when I boot it from my key, it comes up that there is a problem with the users and the GNOME Manager (while the desktop is loading), then a blueish page comes up askign for my username and password.... how do i fix this? it says it | 22:35 |
| maxime | its quite coool :) | 22:35 |
| Agent_bob | ThuLex and check permissions on it also. | 22:35 |
| Toodles | yes zethro if u have a free partion to install xp on | 22:35 |
| kane77 | Neoxeekhrobe, and you want to repartition? | 22:35 |
| krim | zetheroo: It's possible but I think XP removes Grub so you should find some guide that tells you how to do it right | 22:35 |
| LucianIndy | zetheroo, yes but you will have to reinstall grub because windows xp will install its own boot software | 22:36 |
| ThuLex | how do i check permissions? | 22:36 |
| rome0s | -A PREROUTING -i eth0 -p tcp -m tcp --dport 25 -j DNAT --to-destination 192.168.254.250:80 | 22:36 |
| LucianIndy | Thulex, in command line 'ls -la' | 22:36 |
| Joshooa | Nobody can help with a wireless network? | 22:36 |
| Agent_bob | ThuLex same way you check to see what it is... ls -l /dev/null | 22:36 |
| bobo79 | rome0s smtp is udp no? | 22:36 |
| Neoxeekhrobe | No, once I install, I always get this problem where I can't inc the size of my folder. Like I wanted to download iso and I was told not enough space | 22:36 |
| rome0s | no | 22:36 |
| rome0s | is tcp | 22:36 |
| jsoftw | maxime: its kinda smooth to do eh? :) | 22:36 |
| Neoxeekhrobe | I have 80GB hDD | 22:36 |
| bobo79 | rome0s thanks i will try it | 22:36 |
| ThuLex | ok, well at the moment it comes up with a GUI, how do i get the terminal? | 22:36 |
| zetheroo | krim: so I have to edit the grub booter? | 22:36 |
| Toodles | does ubuntu not support duel cores? caus ethe only way to boot is disableing the 2nd core from what I've googled? | 22:37 |
| Agent_bob | ThuLex if it's not < crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 1, 3 Nov 28 16:24 /dev/null > then there's your issue. | 22:37 |
| kane77 | ThuLex, ctrl+alt+f1 | 22:37 |
| Neoxeekhrobe | I am going to reinstall and I wanted to know what should I do during Installation | 22:37 |
| Agent_bob | ThuLex ctrl+alt+f2 | 22:37 |
| krim | zetheroo: I think you might have to install grub again afterwards but don't take my word for it. I always made sure to install XP first when I still used it. | 22:37 |
| kane77 | ThuLex, or just run terminal from Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal | 22:37 |
| bobo79 | rome0s iptables: No chain/target/match by that name | 22:37 |
| Mark761966 | I'm beginning to think creating *nix distros is the new Punk Rock | 22:37 |
| Agent_bob | ThuLex actually ctrl+alt+f[1-6] | 22:37 |
| clarjon1 | ThuLex: Ctrl-Alt-F6 | 22:38 |
| Agent_bob | kane77 he can't login | 22:38 |
| Joshooa | Anybody? Wireless keep kicking me offline and out of WoW, I can see people chatting and doing stuff but I can't use any of my attacks or abilities | 22:38 |
| ThuLex | ok, once ive done that, i do ls -l /dev/null right? | 22:38 |
| Agent_bob | yes | 22:38 |
| kane77 | Agent_bob, oh.. sorry then :/ | 22:38 |
| ThuLex | then? | 22:38 |
| Toodles | josh txt might be udp and the rest tcp maybe ur blocking all tcp for somereason? | 22:38 |
| bobo79 | rome0s: iptables -A PREROUTING -i eth0 -p tcp -m tcp --dport 25 -j DNAT --to-destination 72.55.156.210:25 is my command | 22:38 |
| Agent_bob | ThuLex if it's not < crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 1, 3 Nov 28 16:24 /dev/null > then there's your issue. | 22:38 |
| rome0s | ok | 22:38 |
| clarjon1 | Joshooa: Try #wireless | 22:38 |
| rome0s | you're right! | 22:38 |
| spiffman | problem: "sudo apt-get install xchat" tells me "xchat: depends: tcl8.4 but it is not installable". i get this same error for almost every package in aptitude and synaptic | 22:39 |
| rome0s | i forgot to change port 80 | 22:39 |
| Agent_bob | ThuLex first see if that's it or not. | 22:39 |
| Joshooa | Toodles: Thought that, I put myself in the DMZ to have all ports open. No difference. It works for a while, but after I play for a bit, I suddenly can't attack | 22:39 |
| bobo79 | rome0s: it gave me an error something is wrong.. | 22:39 |
| rome0s | hmmm | 22:39 |
| bobo79 | rome0s iptables: No chain/target/match by that name | 22:39 |
| Joshooa | Toodles: Then after a few minutes, it'll either start working or disconnect me | 22:40 |
| ThuLex | <Agent_bob> ThuLex if it's not < crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 1, 3 Nov 28 16:24 /dev/null > then there's your issue. | 22:40 |
| ThuLex | what? that means nothing to me :p, im a linux n00b | 22:40 |
| spiffman | ...i'll try back later i guess, i gotta go to class | 22:40 |
| Agent_bob | ThuLex did you issue the command i gave ? ls -l /dev/null | 22:40 |
| core64 | Neoxeekhrobe: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/partitioning check out that link, maybe that'll help | 22:40 |
| ThuLex | no not yet | 22:41 |
| Neoxeekhrobe | Thanks | 22:41 |

| bmod | ikonia, what you said did not solve my problem | 22:43 |

| mw-home | I just bought an acer flatscreen LCD to replace my old CRT. I set the resolution OK. However, something is wrong with the brightness -- it is set way too high! Even when I change the monitor hardware settings, it is still really bright. | 22:46 |
| Agent_bob | well anyway i have a box that linux can't boot/run it's a simple pc i586 but has aic7xxx scsi controller card scsi hd, and cd. and ati radion agp card. the two seem to be totally incompatable. when linux tries to load the driver for the scsi card the vidio is gone. | 22:46 |
| pike_ | zetheroo: like juano__ said grub actually is installed to the first 512bytes of the hd now it loads stuff from the boot partition but the mbr is actually what needs to be fixed after you install windows as windows will install its own mbr | 22:46 |
| Toodles | i googled around and i think its a duel core problem but when i disable one it still freezes | 22:46 |
| zetheroo | juano__: ok... and then I install XP? | 22:46 |
| rome0s | and put the command in that file | 22:46 |
| calc | Toodles: ok thats something useful, what cpu/motherboard are you using? or was it a regular store model? | 22:46 |
| clarjon1 | Toodles: If it still freezes, it could be a memory problem. | 22:46 |

| Toodles | its a lappy intel duel core, motherboard not sure but i can find out.... | 22:47 |
| calc | kaspe1: both will work | 22:47 |
| rome0s | then use this command /sbin/iptables-restore </etc/iptables.rules | 22:47 |
| calc | kaspe1: if you want 64bit stuff use amd64 version | 22:47 |
| mw-home | Joshooa: what about them? How do I see them? | 22:47 |
| rome0s | ok? | 22:47 |
| kaspe1 | which is better? | 22:47 |
| juano__ | zetheroo: yes, after leaving free space for xp, boot with the xp cd, make a partition in free space and install xp, but BEFORE this, you should read carefully !fixmbr | 22:47 |
| pluffsy | hi | 22:47 |
| Agent_bob | i'm going to pull the two cards and look for jumpers on either one of them. but i don't think that either has any... | 22:47 |
| pike_ | zetheroo: well idealy you install windows first then let ubuntu install last and it handles everything but if you install xp last then you need to follow that fixmbr link that ubotu mentioned | 22:47 |
| kaspe1 | calc: thanks | 22:47 |
| juano__ | zetheroo: because xp will run over mbr | 22:47 |
| calc | kaspe1: depends on what you need, for my laptop amd64 version won't wake from suspend so i use i386, but other people's laptops work fine with amd64 | 22:47 |
| clarjon1 | kaspe1: Is the processor a 64 bit processor? if not, hten you have ot use the i386 | 22:48 |

| kaspe1 | thanks a lot | 22:50 |
| Cherubael | I'm following the instructions on the BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia section, yet I don't seem to be getting anywhere. Is there somthing missing in Gutsy, or is there something I need more than what comes as standard? | 22:50 |
| juano__ | zetheroo: click on the link beside "Lost grub after...." | 22:50 |
| clarjon1 | pluffsy: Yes. I have it check my harddisk's files quite often. | 22:50 |
| calc | Toodles: it may be a problem with acpi but if that is the case you will probably have to either try booting with acpi off in the kernel or finding a more up to date bios | 22:51 |

| js_ | ikonia: yes | 23:11 |
| ikonia | js_: thats very odd | 23:11 |
| MystaMax | explain? how why? | 23:11 |
| ikonia | MystaMax: virtualisation stuggles with direct hardware access | 23:12 |
| wib | ikonia: ok, last question: you said i didn't have to boot from live cd and edit sudoers like i did? | 23:12 |
| bruenig | indeed | 23:12 |
| ikonia | wib: correct | 23:12 |
| MystaMax | not gonna hurt anything? especially if the machine is powerful enough, its harmless | 23:12 |
| MystaMax | its virtual | 23:12 |
| Cherubael | ikonia: Is a "non free repo" something I want installed or does that cause issues? | 23:12 |
| wib | ikonia: then how would i have gained the right to use sudo? | 23:12 |
| bruenig | the whole idea of virtualization is to try to be a sort of emulator which means that it isn't going to actually access the hardware | 23:12 |
| ikonia | wib: boot from livecd and "usermod -g wib -G adm wib" | 23:12 |
| ikonia | wib: thats it | 23:12 |
| ikonia | bruenig: exactly | 23:12 |
| bruenig | it emulates hardware | 23:12 |
| MystaMax | do you follow vmware? have you seen the progress? They have demos on their blogs. with the right hardware vmware can access the hardware | 23:13 |
| ikonia | MystaMax: "can" | 23:13 |
| ikonia | its a waste of time and effort | 23:13 |
| MystaMax | in your opinion, ha | 23:14 |
| bruenig | almost certainly will fail | 23:14 |
| wib | ikonia: ok well... i couldn't have done it as i know nothing about user management under linux... but thanks anyways, i'll just be more careful in the future :) thx! | 23:14 |
| bruenig | software freedom means you can do what you want to do, just saying | 23:14 |

| Ruud | ikonia: In windows I mounted a partition I used for the webserver on a ntfs folder AND I assigned a drive letter to it... Is something similar possible with linux?? | 23:21 |
| cdm10 | Cherubael: if you can't find it, try running < sudo apt-get update > and trying again | 23:21 |
| ikonia | Ruud: as in you want to mount the ubuntu machine in windows ? | 23:21 |
| ikonia | cdm10: why would that help ? | 23:21 |
| Ruud | ikonia: no, I am looking for an analogie to the windows terms I know | 23:21 |
| Ruud | analogy | 23:22 |
| Cherubael | ikonia: No output | 23:22 |
| ikonia | Ruud: your webserver is mounted in /var/www - its already mounted | 23:22 |
| hashbrowncipher | can anyone comment on why /proc/slabinfo does not exist in gutsy and how to get its functionality back? | 23:22 |
| ikonia | Cherubael: ok, so the repo must not be enabled | 23:22 |
| ikonia | Cherubael: thats all I can think of | 23:22 |
| matttis | how can I search the package libraries ? | 23:22 |
| cdm10 | ikonia: Every time I've installed Ubuntu without being connected to a network, it has no package database until it's updated. | 23:22 |
| Cherubael | ikonia: How do I go about enabling it? | 23:22 |
| Vandalite | gah! turns out there's a bug in gdm making xdmcp just.... not work. | 23:22 |
| ikonia | hashbrowncipher: what is is used for | 23:22 |
| cdm10 | Cherubael: go to System>Admin>Software Sources and make sure restricted is checked off | 23:22 |
| ikonia | Cherubael: system -> administration -> software sources | 23:22 |
| hashbrowncipher | ikonia: monitoring the slab memory allocator | 23:22 |

| Vandalite | it's making it impossible for my xvnc connection to STAY connected. | 23:24 |
| ikonia | Vandalite: I'll ask again, why do you want it upgrading | 23:24 |
| Kalamarencu | does anyone know how to configure security on wireless? | 23:24 |
| Ruud | ikonia: true, but if I want to access it I need to go to /var/www. But I would like to have it to appear in nautilus under places as a drive that I can give a name. In windows I would have done this by mounting the partition in C:\Inetpub\wwwroot and also assigning the drive letter D to that partition | 23:24 |
| cdm10 | Actually, that's weird, because normally Restricted Drivers Manager should enable it... | 23:24 |
| Cherubael | cdm10: It needs to be checked? Is that it? | 23:24 |
| magicrobotmonkey | i see references to uvc (which is, i think v4l2) being able to do it but i have no idea how | 23:24 |
| cdm10 | Cherubael: yeah, try checking it off. Usually, though, Restricted Drivers Manager is supposed to enable it automatically. | 23:25 |
| Vandalite | and according to the guys developing gdm, the 2.21 version fixes this. | 23:25 |

| n00bie | What does it supposed to be ? | 23:30 |
| Toodles | ikonia: i know but i googles around and most people that frooze at 100% was because of an error with the duel cores | 23:30 |
| ikonia | Toodles: not aware of that error | 23:30 |
| cdm10 | Cherubael: well, basically, if the nVidia driver broke something, it should be able to recover from it and let you fix it by selecting the nv driver. It should be pretty obvious to you, if you need it. | 23:30 |
| ikonia | Toodles: my multi core boxes, including quad core are all fine | 23:30 |

| hagna | bruenig: the sudoers file on host | 23:32 |

| cdm10 | hagna: but that's optional, and i don't really know anything about the sudoers file, so you should let the other people help you :) | 23:32 |
| bruenig | cdm10, that is not the "whole" point, I only use sudo to get around authentication myself | 23:32 |
| Toodles | ikonia i know, but it shouldnt try to mount since im only booting off of ram correct? and i disabled the 2nd core to get to the that error | 23:32 |

| bruenig | cdm10, the way that ubuntu by default uses sudo makes it seem like the whole point is passwords and such. But on most other distros I have seen it used more as a way to launch things that require root without having to provide a password. So something like synaptic would be launched with sudo (and and accompanying sudoers NOPASSWD exception) so that the annoying dialog doesn't pop up everytime especially on a single user machine. | 23:34 |

| bazhang | bye | 23:42 |
| broco | hey guys, got a big problem with my bluetooth | 23:43 |
| Pelo | visit, when you forward a port , you tell your router to open a specific port and to direct the data from that port to one specifip computer , that is what is called port forwarding, in order to do that you need to set a static ip for your computer, both in the router and ni the computer, in ubuntu you set the static ip in menu > system > admin > networking | 23:43 |
| Pelo | sorry network | 23:43 |
| theLichKing | how can i change the video player in firefox from totem to mplayer? | 23:43 |

| Pelo | theLichKing, right click a video file, and go to properties, then to open with | 23:44 |
| bruenig | theLichKing, apt-get remove totem-mozilla | 23:44 |
| * Pelo should read the whole quesiton first apparently | 23:44 | |
| === allbert is now known as allbert_ | ||
| theLichKing | heh | 23:44 |
| * bruenig sees now that Pelo must be tired (still holds out possible illiteracy as an explanation though) | 23:44 | |
| Ruud | ikonia: To me it looks as if this is not very standard. I'll look into it later (I had actually hoped I missed something and this would be easy) | 23:45 |
| B-rabbit | i just downloaded a software from sourceforge, it is in source, i am reading the README.txt file and it says to execute the following commands "./configure" , "make" and "make install" commands i have executed the "./configure" command but i cannot execute the "make" command, when i type it in terminal it says: " No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop" can anyone tell me what i am doing wrong here plz...thanks | 23:45 |
| magicrobotmonkey | whats metacitys default window decorator called? | 23:45 |

| Pelo | magicrobotmonkey, that would be metacity | 23:46 |
| Marvin__ | I restarted and now it says error connecting to gnome-settings-daemon | 23:46 |
| === Marvin__ is now known as Gnuyen | ||
| magicrobotmonkey | oh | 23:46 |
| Pelo | magicrobotmonkey, metacity is the default decorator for gtk | 23:46 |
| Gnuyen | but gnome-settings-daemon is running | 23:46 |
| magicrobotmonkey | well for some reason all my decorations just vanished | 23:46 |
| MatthewV | B-rabbit, so ./configure executed successfully? | 23:46 |
| B-rabbit | yes | 23:46 |
| bruenig | B-rabbit, what happened when you ran ./configure, did it it complete all the way or did it stop and tell you that you were missing something | 23:46 |
| Gnuyen | so now when I log in, metacity doesn't run | 23:46 |
| Gnuyen | magicrobotmonkey: me too! | 23:46 |
| magicrobotmonkey | Pelo: metacity is the manager | 23:46 |
| magicrobotmonkey | i use compiz | 23:46 |
| MatthewV | B-rabbit, could you !pastebin the output of ./configure ? | 23:47 |
| bruenig | B-rabbit, the reason it says that is because there is no makefile, the reason there is no makefile is because ./configure didn't make one which means that it didn't finish more than likely and instead found you were missing a dependency. | 23:47 |
| magicrobotmonkey | running metacity replaces compiz | 23:47 |
| Gnuyen | I think the session data is just broken | 23:47 |
| Pelo | magicrobotmonkey, go to #compiz-fusion the problem is a simple one to fix you need emerald tghey will tell you how to do it | 23:47 |
| Gnuyen | mine doesn't run gnome-panel either | 23:47 |
| MatthewV | B-rabbit, what software is it btw? | 23:47 |
| Pelo | !enter | Gnuyen | 23:47 |
| Gnuyen | oh maybe my problem is different then | 23:47 |
| ubotu | Gnuyen: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 23:47 |
| bruenig | so you can use compiz-fusion and emerald at the same time and be good? | 23:48 |
