[02:06] <R_M> I have a question. So I don't have to retype it all here, it's at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=3994582 . I brought it up here the other day and people asked if I was sure that the wireless card worked and that the PCI slot worked. I tested both, and they both did.
[02:13] <soldats> does bios detect it on the celeron
[02:14] <soldats> err oops wrong screen
[02:22] <R_M> It's really frustrating. If anyone can offer any other advice where to look for what's wrong, I'd love to hear it.
[03:16] <thruxton> R_M: do you know what chipset the card uses?
[03:17] <thruxton> R_M: try this http://kmuto.jp/debian/hcl/
[03:22] <ransom> hello?
[03:23] <ransom> anyone out there?
[03:23] <soldats> ...
[03:24] <ransom> howdy!
[03:24] <soldats> hello :)
[03:24] <ransom> how are you this evening?
[03:25] <R_M> thruxton: It's a Dynex DX-WGDTC card. According to the info I've found about it online, it works right out of the box with Linux.
[03:25] <soldats> bored i was supposed to go out but i havent heard from some people yet
[03:25] <ransom> *nod*
[03:25] <R_M> As in fact it doeswith my newer Linux box.
[03:26] <ransom> i have a question:  i'm having trouble getting xubuntu up and running on my Core 1 Duo iMac.  I think i grabbed the right version, i burned it to a cd, and i tried to load the disc from startup but it didn't work...
[03:27] <ransom> i got the live disc, so it should have loaded the operating system when i restarted and held down the "d" key
[03:27] <ransom> but it just froze up
[03:27] <ransom> any suggestions?
[03:27] <R_M> You sure the disc burned properly?
[03:28] <ransom> yeah, it verified and i can look at all the contents on the finder
[03:28] <ransom> does it make a difference that i used a CD and not a DVD?
[03:28] <soldats> no
[03:29] <ransom> i haven't tried it on a non-mac x86 computer 'cause i don't have one handy, but do you know if there are any issues with running it on an intel mac?
[03:30] <soldats> its harder to do
[03:30] <soldats> not to be shove you away but i think i remembe a few people in #ubuntu who have done it
[03:30] <ransom> *nod*
[03:31] <ransom> well, i've had kubuntu up and running on this thing before
[03:31] <soldats> this channel is slow and its more populated over there
[03:31] <soldats> really?
[03:31] <ransom> yeah
[03:31] <ransom> worked fine
[03:31] <soldats> did you do a md5 check on the disk
[03:31] <ransom> yeah
[03:32] <ransom> after it didn't work the first time, i did anyway ;-)
[03:32] <ransom> md5 came out fine
[03:32] <soldats> hmm
[03:33] <ransom> the file i got was "xubuntu-7.10-desktop-i386.iso"
[03:33] <ransom> that's the right one, yeah?
[03:34] <soldats> http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-403450.html
[03:34] <soldats> browse through this
[03:37] <ransom> hrm
[03:37] <ransom> i think i might try it
[03:37] <ransom> thanks alot! have a good night!

[05:43] <Ktron> Is there a way to disable the screen going black after 10 minutes of inactivity?
[05:43] <Ktron> Even if I kill the xscreensaver daemon something else is turning my laptop screen off, and its not a BIOS option
[05:43] <node_6> I believe the command is    xset s off

[11:25] <MegaVolt> hi, i just set up my new xubuntu 7.10 system but flash (youtube and so on) doesnt work ... i got the macromedia flash mazilla plugin
[11:25] <MegaVolt> do i need something else?
[11:36] <graabein> hello
[11:36] <graabein> merry xmas :-)
[11:36] <MegaVolt> a little eary ,)
[11:38] <graabein> yes... how come firefox won't start? i'm on a clean 7.10 install and terminal start gives no message
[11:40] <MegaVolt> why terminal start?#
[11:40] <MegaVolt> in my clean install it works
[11:41] <MegaVolt> both via terminal and the icon
[11:41] <graabein> nothing happens when i start firefox from the menu so i figured a terminal start would show a reason why
[11:41] <MegaVolt> any console output?
[11:41] <graabein> nothing
[11:41] <MegaVolt> strange ... sorry, no idea
[11:41] <graabein> i tried to reinstall xfce4 meta package... maybe that will help?
[11:42] <MegaVolt> is there a flag to get more verbose output when starting firefox?
[11:44] <graabein> tried --g-fatal-warnings and -jsconsole with the same result
[11:46] <scizzo-> graabein: ps -ef |grep firefox
[11:46] <scizzo-> graabein: if there is a firefox.bin process running kill it
[11:47] <graabein> nothing
[11:47] <scizzo-> MegaVolt: in firefox type: about:plugins
[11:47] <scizzo-> MegaVolt: see if flash and so on is there
[11:47] <scizzo-> graabein: whereis firefox
[11:47] <scizzo-> graabein: type that
[11:48] <graabein> firefox: /usr/bin/firefox /etc/firefox /usr/lib/firefox /usr/share/firefox /usr/share/man/man1/firefox.1.gz
[11:48] <scizzo-> or: dpkg -l | grep firefox
[11:48] <MegaVolt> scizzo-: no plugins are installed
[11:48] <scizzo-> MegaVolt: restarted the browser after installing the plugins?
[11:48] <graabein> ii  firefox                                    2.0.0.6+2nobinonly-0ubuntu1    lightweight web browser based on Mozilla
[11:48] <graabein> ii  mozilla-firefox-locale-en-gb               2.0.0.7+1-0ubuntu2             Mozilla Firefox English language/region pack
[11:48] <graabein> ii  ubufox                                     0.4~beta1-0ubuntu3             modifications for ubuntu firefox (default) i
[11:48] <MegaVolt> i used the packet manager for the plugins
[11:48] <scizzo-> graabein: what happens if you do: # /usr/bin/firfox
[11:48] <MegaVolt> that at least worked in kubuntu
[11:48] <scizzo-> nothing at all?
[11:49] <MegaVolt> yes, restarted several times
[11:49] <graabein> nothing at all, no
[11:49] <scizzo-> MegaVolt: asking again......did you restart the browser!
[11:49] <scizzo-> ?
[11:49] <MegaVolt> yes
[11:49] <MegaVolt> browser and the whole system
[11:49] <MegaVolt> ;)
[11:49] <scizzo-> MegaVolt: dpkg -l|grep flash
[11:50] <scizzo-> MegaVolt: using firefox 2.0.0?
[11:50] <MegaVolt> ... fresh xubuntu 7.10 install
[11:50] <graabein> i tried installing openbox maybe that work
[11:50] <scizzo-> graabein: strange....
[11:50] <MegaVolt> with the recent updates
[11:50] <MegaVolt> i set it up yesterday
[11:50] <scizzo-> MegaVolt: and typing about:plugins in firefox address feild gives no result?
[11:51] <MegaVolt> yep, no plugins
[11:51] <MegaVolt> and the grep command is empty
[11:51] <MegaVolt> but synaptic shows that libswfdec is installed
[11:51] <MegaVolt> as well as swfdec-mozilla
[11:52] <graabein> it's not really a clean system, i kept /home from the previous install
[11:52] <graabein> an earlier version of xubuntu i think
[11:52] <graabein> anyway, thanks for answering, i'll try getting into openbox
[11:55] <MegaVolt> i just also tried the flashplugin-nonfree package
[11:55] <MegaVolt> firefox sees it as installed
[11:55] <MegaVolt> but the about:plugins is still empty
[11:55] <MegaVolt> and flash doesnt work
[11:56] <scizzo-> MegaVolt: having it hard to belive that about:plugins or about:plugin does not show anything
[11:57] <MegaVolt> No plug-ins are installed
[11:57] <MegaVolt> Find more information about browser plug-ins at mozilla.org.
[11:57] <MegaVolt> Help for installing plug-ins is available from plugindoc.mozdev.org.
[11:57] <MegaVolt> thats what i get
[11:57] <march> ... und tschüss :)
[11:57] <MegaVolt> mv@mv-laptop:~$ dpkg -l | grep flash
[11:57] <MegaVolt> ii  flashplugin-nonfree                        9.0.48.0.2+really0ubuntu12                Adobe Flash Player plugin installer
[11:58] <MegaVolt> now after i installed that package ... before that it was empty
[11:58] <scizzo-> restart the browser and check plugins again
[11:58] <MegaVolt> same
[11:59] <MegaVolt> no installed plugins
[12:00] <scizzo-> ls -l /usr/share/firefox/
[12:00] <scizzo-> in that directory do you have something called plugins or something?
[12:01] <MegaVolt> a folder "searchplugins"
[12:01] <scizzo-> sudo apt-get install xubuntu-restricted-extras
[12:03] <scizzo-> if you install that package and restart the browser.....and go to about:plugins with no result then something is really wrong since it should work
[12:04] <MegaVolt> its downloading
[12:04] <MegaVolt> seems to take quite a while
[12:04] <scizzo-> MegaVolt: you are not using hardy are you?
[12:04] <MegaVolt> hardy?
[12:04] <scizzo-> nvm
[12:04] <MegaVolt> ;)
[12:04] <scizzo-> :P
[12:04] <scizzo-> however that package will install java also
[12:05] <MegaVolt> the corefonts stuff takes forever
[12:05] <MegaVolt> lots of small downloads from servers that timeout
[12:05] <MegaVolt> ;)
[12:05] <scizzo-> its a collection of non-free stuff
[12:07] <MegaVolt> i got plugins ;K)
[12:08] <MegaVolt> all java stuff
[12:08] <MegaVolt> dont see anything about flash
[12:08] <MegaVolt> and flash doesnt work
[12:11] <graabein> greetings, i found the file rights were all wrong
[12:11] <MegaVolt> grats ;)
[12:13] <predaeus> MegaVolt, try locate libflashplayer.so
[12:13] <predaeus> "locate libflashplayer.so"
[12:13] <scizzo-> or even better: find /usr/share -name "libflashplayer.so"
[12:14] <predaeus> MegaVolt, are you running a 32bit or a 64bit install?
[12:14] <MegaVolt> 32bit
[12:14] <predaeus> scizzo-, I have it under /home
[12:14] <predaeus> dunno why.
[12:14] <MegaVolt> locate no result but I didnt set it up yet
[12:14] <predaeus> sudo updatedb
[12:15] <scizzo-> predaeus: installing it should also put it in main path
[12:15] <MegaVolt> the find thingy also got no result
[12:15] <scizzo-> MegaVolt: find /usr/ -name "libflash*" -ls
[12:16] <MegaVolt> mv@mv-laptop:~$ find /usr/ -name "libflash*" -ls
[12:16] <MegaVolt> 109520  216 -rw-r--r--   1 root     root       217540 Nov 28 02:33 /usr/lib/openoffice/program/libflash680li.so
[12:16] <scizzo-> or find / -name "libflash*" -ls
[12:16] <scizzo-> o.O
[12:16] <scizzo-> sudo find / -name "libflash*" -ls
[12:16] <MegaVolt> nothing in / either
[12:16] <scizzo-> try that instead
[12:17] <MegaVolt> except for lots of proc and tmp stuff
[12:17] <predaeus> anything in /home/yourname/.mozilla/plugins/ ?
[12:17] <MegaVolt> there is no plugins folder
[12:17] <MegaVolt> in .mozilla
[12:17] <scizzo-> MegaVolt: .mozilla/firefox/plugins/
[12:18] <MegaVolt> neither
[12:18] <MegaVolt> mv@mv-laptop:~/.mozilla/firefox$ ls
[12:18] <MegaVolt> 2b8r6yky.default  pluginreg.dat  profiles.ini
[12:18] <predaeus> scizzo-, MegaVolt looks like I installed it through Firefox or somehting. I haven't got the package installed either.
[12:19] <MegaVolt> pluginreg.dat shows the same as about:plugins
[12:19] <MegaVolt> nothing about flash, only java stuff
[12:20] <scizzo-> sudo apt-get remove --purge flashplugin-nonfree ; sudo apt-get clean ; sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[12:20] <scizzo-> now when the install starts try to see if it really downloads and installs the flashplayer
[12:20] <MegaVolt> kk
[12:23] <MegaVolt> aaaah
[12:23] <MegaVolt> got the problem
[12:24] <scizzo-> ok?
[12:24] <MegaVolt> --13:23:26--  http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.gz
[12:24] <MegaVolt>            => `./install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.gz'
[12:24] <MegaVolt> Download done.
[12:24] <MegaVolt> md5sum mismatch install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.gz
[12:24] <MegaVolt> The Flash plugin is NOT installed.
[12:24] <MegaVolt> there it is
[12:24] <scizzo-> right md5sum problem
[12:24] <MegaVolt> but i have no idea how to fix it ;)
[12:26] <scizzo-> might be a workaround for it
[12:27] <MegaVolt> the problem should not be xubuntu specific, right?
[12:27] <predaeus> MegaVolt, there doesn't seem to be an md5sum on the flash site. Maybe they updated the file and Ubuntu devs did not update the md5sum check.
[12:28] <MegaVolt> so waiting 1-2 days until the cheksum is updated should fix things?
[12:28] <predaeus> http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash gives the same link as above
[12:28] <scizzo-> I am trying a workaround
[12:28] <predaeus> I don't know if this is the cause. You could jsut download the tarball by hand and install it yourself.
[12:29] <MegaVolt> wont that mess up synaptic management?
[12:29] <predaeus> Anyway, I can't see an md5sum on that page. So the Ubuntu devs probably just calculated one themselves and compare to it. Which would fail if the version on the server changes.
[12:30] <MegaVolt> cant i somehow tell apt-get to skip the md5 chekc?
[12:32] <MegaVolt> hm apt-get now thinks that the flash plugin is installed so installing it by hand won't mess with it, right? I'll go with that then
[12:35] <scizzo-> not sure how to go around it
[12:36] <MegaVolt> well, it works
[12:37] <scizzo-> predaeus: no....its not the .deb md5sum
[12:37] <scizzo-> predaeus: its the flash package that is broken
[12:37] <MegaVolt> i remember my gf had the same problem a while ago
[12:37] <MegaVolt> but she never fixed it
[12:37] <MegaVolt> so it might be broken over a week now
[12:37] <MegaVolt> i guess its the same cause
[12:38] <predaeus> scizzo-, I know. I see md5sum checks inside the package scripts
[12:38] <predaeus> scizzo-, I assume it is the cause. I am currently scanning through launchpad for the relevant bug
[12:41] <scizzo-> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/flashplugin-nonfree/+bug/174438

[14:38] <OtakuMark> I have an AMD K-6 machine that has less than 128MB of RAM. What is the best lightweight linux distro that would work on this, and would be kid friendly? I am setting it up for an 8-year old girl.

[16:17] <PA2556> Någon här?
[16:23] <PA2556> >:o
[16:24] <Wizard> Ta.. wszyscy Szwedzi
[16:25] <PA2556> ?!?!
[16:27] <PA2556> Anyone here that can help out with xubuntu?
[16:27] <Wizard> i can try
[16:28] <PA2556> Thanx! Got a Thinkpad 600E, works fine, except the sound...:(
[16:28] <Wizard> hmm.. what kind of sound card?
[16:29] <PA2556> Built in...
[16:29] <Wizard> wait a second.. i haven't used linux for ages..
[16:29] <Wizard> i have to check few things :P
[16:30] <PA2556> Cirrus Logic CS 4610/11
[16:30] <PA2556> Ok!
[16:30] <Wizard> hmm.. it should work..
[16:31] <Wizard> first, give lspci -v in terminal and see if os detects it
[16:31] <PA2556> Seen some helps where you should edit in some files, but I cant save them when I edit in them..:(
[16:31] <PA2556> Yepp, there I found what card it is
[16:32] <Wizard> now, give lsmod, and locate modules with snd_ at the beginning
[16:32] <billy_idle> Is there a possibility to deactivate the screensaver in 7.10? Currently I can choose Blank Screen or Random.
[16:33] <PA2556> snd_cs46xx             85096  0

[16:33] <Wizard> PA2556: great, modules are present and loaded
[16:33] <Wizard> so.. i think it's a problem with mixer

[16:34] <PA2556> Ok...and how to fix that?
[16:34] <Wizard> PA2556: run xfce4-mixer now
[16:34] <Wizard> and check if volumes are set correctly
[16:34] <PA2556> Where do I find it?
[16:35] <Wizard> alt+f2 -> xfce4-mixer :P
[16:36] <PA2556> Ok! Just had xubuntu for a day...so..:)
[16:36] <Wizard> i have xubuntu for 30 minutes :]
[16:36] <PA2556> Ok...had linux version for a day...first time testing it at all
[16:37] <PA2556> xfce4 = Blank, nothing in the window
[16:38] <Wizard> what? run xfce4-mixer
[16:39] <PA2556> Did as you said, got a empty window opened
[16:39] <Wizard> uuh.. not good
[16:39] <PA2556> That I understand....lol
[16:40] <Wizard> ok, so.. sudo apt-get alsa-tools
[16:41] <Wizard> it will install necessery tools, since i don't see them installed by default..
[16:41] <Wizard> they don't take much space
[16:41] <PA2556> Ok!
[16:41] <solsTiCe> hi. just a question. what's the diff between alternate iso and desktop ?
[16:42] <vinze> soldats, desktop is graphical, that's the main difference
[16:42] <vinze> solsTiCe, sorry
[16:42] <solsTiCe> ah ok
[16:42] <vinze> solsTiCe, so you can try out what it looks like
[16:42] <PA2556> Alternate do the installation in text mode...
[16:42] <vinze> !alternate | solsTiCe
[16:42] <ubotu> solsTiCe: The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD - See also !Minimal
[16:42] <solsTiCe> i've just seen xubuntu recommended for an old pc with only 64Mo but the alternate
[16:43] <solsTiCe> one
[16:43] <vinze> I think it might run on 64Mb, but it won't be fun...
[16:43] <solsTiCe> yes. it's not for the fun ;-)
[16:43] <vinze> :P
[16:43] <solsTiCe> vinze: any idea ?
[16:43] <Wizard> PA2556: oops, that packet is named alsa-utils :D
[16:43] <solsTiCe> fluxbuntu ? or other distro ?
[16:44] <vinze> solsTiCe, well, yes, I think you should go with the alternate cd for that
[16:44] <vinze> solsTiCe, yes, you could try Fluxbuntu too
[16:44] <vinze> Or perhaps something like Puppy Linux or Damn Small LInux or something

[17:05] <Wizard> ahh.. i forgot that this is 'noob friendly' vhannel
[17:28] <predaeus> RandyboY, if the output from the computer to the TV is fickering unplugging the antenna cable might help.
[17:28] <predaeus> *flickering
[17:29] <predaeus> or cables leading to other devices.
[17:30] <RandyboY> well, it happended after i was doing that thing with the graphics card... before that it worked pretty good

[19:03] <stone[no]> 3slug
[19:03] <Wyrmul> I am trying to preven my windows drive from mounting when my linux drive boots.  Any ideas?
[19:03] <stone[no]> /etc/fstab
[19:04] <Wyrmul> yeah. but the windows drives are not listed in my /etc/fstab

[19:05] <vinze> !paste > Wyrmul
[19:05] <stone[no]> WYRMUL: a warning might have done it...
[19:07] <stone[no]> disregard last
[19:07] <stone[no]> thesheep: A warning might have done it...
[19:08] <TheSheep> stone[no]: want to discuss it on #ubuntu-ops?
[19:08] <TheSheep> stone[no]: warning wouldn't astop the flood
[19:09] <vinze> Perhaps should've told him to come back...?
[19:09] <TheSheep> vinze: I tried, he disconnected
[19:09] <vinze> TheSheep, oh, too bad then
[19:09] <stone[no]> thesheep: Hey I know. But I guess he was a noobe and didn't know that pasting multiple lines will not show as one message...
[19:10] <TheSheep> stone[no]:sthis is really an OT discussion in here
[19:10] <stone[no]> thesheep: Yeah i know...*
[19:11] <gerro> how would I set an icon for .odt files?
[19:12] <gerro> I mean none the other themes have something set so was curious as to how
[19:14] <TheSheep> gerro: put it in ~/.icons/hicolor/(size)/mimetypes/x-office-document.(png/svg)
[19:15] <Wyrmul> sorry about earlier.
[19:15] <gerro> umm can't I just put it in my icon theme under /usr/share/icons/
[19:15] <gerro> oh and would that give .doc and .odt different style icons?
[19:16] <Wyrmul> Does anyone know how to switch from the load screen to the boot dialloge?
[19:16] <vinze> Wyrmul, Ctrl+Alt+F1
[19:16] <TheSheep> Wyrmul: glad you're back :)
[19:16] <Wyrmul> while the while booting?
[19:16] <gerro> Wyrmul: or edit /boot/grub/menu.lst and remove splash and quiet
[19:16] <vinze> Wyrmul, yes
[19:16] <Wyrmul> sheep: back propperly chastized
[19:17] <TheSheep> gerro: hmm.. probably not
[19:17] <vinze> ...or just quiet, right?
[19:17] <Wyrmul> whoo keen thanks
[19:17] <TheSheep> gerro: putting them in /usr/share would require you rebuild the icon cache
[19:17] <TheSheep> Wyrmul: sorry, that's the only working method to stop the flood :)
[19:17] <gerro> TheSheep: which is as simple as reselecting my current icon theme under settings right?
[19:18] <TheSheep> gerro: no
[19:18] <gerro> I kinda just stuffed my own incons a in a theme directory and used that before.. what you mean icon cache?
[19:19] <TheSheep> gerro: you do it with gtk-update-icon-cache
[19:19] <gerro> hmm ok
[19:19] <gerro> command complete.. kinda quick and pointless
[19:20] <TheSheep> gerro: in the directory of thei con theme
[19:21] <TheSheep> gerro: also, you will have to do it eveyr time you update the icon theem from the repositories
[19:23] <gerro> theSheep: is this something new to 7.10?
[19:23] <TheSheep> gerro: no, that's how gtk icon themes work in general
[19:24] <gerro> I'm doing that command in every directory as my user and root
[19:24] <gerro> still just completes and exits
[19:25] <gerro> I think before I used a current theme and replaced all its icons
[19:25] <gerro> perhaps that is why I never ran into this problem
[19:26] <TheSheep> you only need to run it in tbase directory of the theme
[19:26] <TheSheep> the
[19:26] <TheSheep> for example /usr/share/icons/Tango/
[19:27] <gerro> ahah I got the wrong file permissions...
[19:28] <gerro> this time I didn't forget the ls -ln confusing it with ln -s :)
[19:31] <gerro> alright still no luck
[21:56] <atarinox> So I was testing the xubuntu cd on my family comp, and double clicked the cdboot file on the disk...and it said 'setup complete' and asked me to reboot. now when i reboot i get the option of entering ubuntu or windows.....how do i get rid of this? i was just testing it out
[22:56] <mokok> Hi. I have a problem. I have three partitions on my ide harddrive, hda1 for windows, hda2 for linux and hda5 for swap. Now I would like to remove windows and get that hda1 partition for somekind of music storage or something at least. What should I do?
[23:53] <s34n> what are the ram reqs for xubuntu?
[23:54] <Yoques> Hi, I speak spanish. I have a problem I can't resolve
[23:56] <Yoques> I need to see the fonts in "tty" smaller, but I don't know how, because I have problems every time I try to configure /boot/gurb/menu.lst
[23:56] <s34n> Yoques: go ahead
[23:56] <Yoques> I have that:
[23:56] <Yoques> http://rafb.net/p/cTaDy635.html
[23:58] <Yoques> I tried things all the morning
[23:58] <Yoques> but I can't
[23:58] <s34n> Are you booting into runlevel 3 or 5?
[23:58] <Yoques> ¿?
[23:58] <s34n> text or GUI?
[23:58] <Yoques> what's that?
[23:58] <Yoques> I prefer text
[23:58] <s34n> which are you booting into now?
[23:59] <Yoques> that's the cuestion I delete the "splash"
[23:59] <Yoques> directly enter, with no pass
