| fwaokda | yes | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| towlie | i did do but it doesnt work i manually copied the files | 00:00 |
| LimCore | what the difference compiz -vs- beryl? which one have most effects/is best, on nvidia, on 64bit system | 00:00 |
| fwaokda | i have ndiswrapper and utils 1.9 | 00:00 |
| munim | towlie: download the tar.gz and install.. not the rpm | 00:00 |
| fwaokda | is it sudo ndiswrapper -i /path/to/driver ? | 00:00 |
| Malachi | fwaodka: Go to System > Administration > Synaptics Package Manager and find ndisgtk | 00:00 |
| brabbit | TheEagle, join the 2600 channels or sumpfing like that | 00:00 |
| nickrud | LimCore, compiz-fusion (the fusion of old compiz and beryl) | 00:00 |
| towlie | munim, i did it didnt work | 00:00 |
| TheEagle | brabbit: where can I go? i don't want to develop a malicious program/ virus just a jokey sort of program to open a cd drive from a computer of my friends | 00:00 |
| Malachi | fwaokda: Oh, you're comfortable with a terminal. Yes, then. | 00:00 |
| TheEagle | brabbit: cheers | 00:00 |
| nickrud | LimCore, beryl is a dead branch now | 00:00 |
| fwaokda | Malachi, k thanks :) | 00:01 |
| TheEagle | brabbit: what are the 2600 channels? | 00:01 |
| fluxy | TheEagle:Could you, by any chance, be an overzealous 14-15 year old teenager? | 00:01 |
| munim | towlie: hmm.. thats strange.. it worked prefectly for me | 00:01 |
| LimCore | so that that was "beryl" is now called compiz again? | 00:01 |
| fluxy | TheEagle: type: /list | 00:01 |
| Malachi | LimCore: The newest is CompizFusion (a merge between Beryl and the old Compiz) | 00:01 |
| TheEagle | fluxy: Well.. Im 15 years old - 16 in jan | 00:01 |
| nickrud | LimCore, pretty much, yes. Emerald is still around, etc | 00:01 |
| munim | LimCore: its called compizfusion actually | 00:01 |
| TheEagle | fluxy: but - whats overzealous | 00:01 |
| LimCore | oki.. and ALIGX ? | 00:01 |
| Malachi | LimCore: Google 'compiz fusion youtube' to see the new stuff. | 00:01 |
| godzirra | So does anyone know if I can open a firefox as a different user in the same X session? Its telling me GTK can't open the display when I type "su - name firefox" | 00:01 |
| Malachi | LimCore: AIGLX is definitely still around, but it's not the same as compiz or beryl. | 00:02 |
| fluxy | TheEagle: marked by excessive enthusiasm | 00:02 |
| nickrud | LimCore, stll needed in your video driver, or xgl with older ati | 00:02 |
| Malachi | godzirra: There you used to be a "run as different user" command. | 00:02 |
| Malachi | godzirra: Hold on. | 00:02 |
| munim | godzirra: try gksu | 00:02 |
| TheEagle | I wouldn't say it was excessive | 00:02 |
| KoRn3 | earlier on i got compiz working and enabled cube desktop... although dont actually see a cube when using ctrl-alt-left mouse button | 00:02 |
| Malachi | (Yeah, I use gksudo firefox all the time, godzirra) | 00:02 |
| TheEagle | or enthusiasm | 00:02 |
| Klick__ | hey all, i run gusty and i have a folder shared, and Im running windows XP in VMWare, and I can see the share, but whenever I try to authenticate for it using my linux user/pass it always failes, any ideas why? | 00:02 |
| TheEagle | i just wan't to confuse my friend | 00:03 |
| serenityUK | godzirra: you need to put the username .... gsku username firefox | 00:03 |
| towlie | munim did you manually copy the flsh plugin or did you use adobe's installer ? | 00:03 |
| able | Where is -lXext these days? I thought it would be in the x11proto-xext-dev package but it's not. Where is it? | 00:03 |
| TheEagle | I don't event wan't a career in computing at all | 00:03 |
| godzirra | awesome.. thats exactly what I needed... I think | 00:03 |
| Malachi | KoRn3: It's not enabled by default; instead you get panes. | 00:03 |
| KoRn3 | oh right | 00:03 |
| Malachi | KoRn3: Go to System > Admin > Synaptic Package Manager. | 00:03 |
| godzirra | hmm... that didnt start firefox? | 00:03 |
| munim | towlie: i used the installer which came with the archive.. | 00:03 |
| LimCore | so AIGLX is only for ATI users, to get needed OGL support, then used by compiz-fusion? | 00:03 |
| nickrud | TheEagle, no one thinks you're out to break stuff, we just simply don't discuss it here | 00:03 |
| Malachi | KoRn3: Search for compizconfig-settings-manager | 00:03 |
| === brabbit is now known as B-rabbit_ | ||
| munim | towlie: probably you didn't put the right path... /usr/lib/firefox | 00:03 |
| FluxD | Hi, I have installed vncserver on a remote machine. I can connect fine. But the screen appears blank. What could be wrong? | 00:03 |
| TheEagle | im just a normal teenager from the uk - likes socialising, music, and stuff | 00:04 |
| godzirra | oh. | 00:04 |
| godzirra | duh. | 00:04 |
| KoRn3 | thanks Malachi | 00:04 |
| TheEagle | nickrud: thanks - where can I go? | 00:04 |
| marek_ | hi | 00:04 |
| godzirra | Its /usr/bin/firefox... and no, that still didn't start it. | 00:04 |
| nickrud | LimCore, no, aiglx is a requirement at the driver level, since older ati don't support it, you'd need a special xserver running | 00:04 |
| fluxy | TheEagle: Let's allow these people to do their job (helping each other). This room isn't for small talk. Impress yourself, do something nice (http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Wikibooks:Programming_languages_bookshelf) | 00:04 |
| Malachi | Korn3: Then check preferences for an "Advance Desktop Settings" item | 00:04 |
| TheEagle | nickrud: someone mentioned the 2600 channels but I don't have a clue what they are | 00:04 |
| munim | godzirra: hmm.. really don't know.. worked perfectly for me | 00:04 |
| marek_ | may i have someones atention please | 00:04 |
| godzirra | ahh there we go. | 00:04 |
| godzirra | gksu -u name firefox | 00:04 |
| nickrud | TheEagle, google will be your friend there | 00:04 |
| TheEagle | thanks alot nickrud | 00:05 |
| fluxy | marek: you don't ask for attention, you simply say/ask what you need to. | 00:05 |
| Malachi | theeagle: If it makes you feel any better, I'm learning Python this very minute. | 00:05 |
| kik | hi | 00:05 |
| godzirra | hrm... it worked on my computer, but on my wifes laptop it still said it can't open the display... | 00:05 |
| fluxy | Malachi:and me c# =) | 00:05 |
| hsteve | please what folders can i assign my program to start in the application window | 00:05 |
| hsteve | on startup | 00:05 |
| kik | what is the ubuntu/debian way to add a plugin in vim? | 00:05 |
| Malachi | fluxy: I'm new to programming. Completely fresh. | 00:05 |
| TheEagle | what would you reccomend - C++ or C or Python | 00:06 |
| munim | godzirra: just try starting the installer with sudo.. might work | 00:06 |
| tacone | someone knows how to enable glade integration in anjuta ? | 00:06 |
| towlie | munim, ok i got it working thanks | 00:06 |
| TheEagle | I can use visual basic very well but its soo shite and doesn't let you do "fun" stuff | 00:06 |
| fluxy | Malachi: I don't like python (indentation stuff). I did a school project in vb.net so c# is great for me | 00:06 |
| TheEagle | its microsoft all over | 00:06 |
| Zoe_ | TheEagle, python is an easier language to start with than C or C++. you might also want to look at perl or java as decent starter languages | 00:06 |
| Malachi | theeagle: Python. | 00:06 |
| marvin4 | Enter text here...hi | 00:07 |
| fluxy | TheEagle: there's lot of vb stuff in ubuntu | 00:07 |
| robdig | hsteve: system->preferences->sessions | 00:07 |
| B-rabbit_ | TheEagle, i would recommend perl | 00:07 |
| hsteve | cpp; | 00:07 |
| TheEagle | fluxy: really? | 00:07 |
| nickrud | Perl? A starter language? What are you trying to do, scare him off? | 00:07 |
| hsteve | cool | 00:07 |
| hsteve | :) yikes | 00:07 |
| munim | TheEagle: windows forms applications in vb | 00:07 |
| serenityUK | Zoe_: perl is a nightmare lol.. not for feint hearted | 00:07 |
| kyu_flux | TheEagle: ruby!! | 00:07 |
| towlie | idont see a trash icon or a link to my home folder on my desktop. how do i enable it | 00:07 |
| kyu_flux | sorry, I just had to throw it out there | 00:07 |
| TheEagle | ye nicktrud - i started with it ages ago and i didn't like it one bit | 00:07 |
| munim | towlie: you can add the trash applet to any panel | 00:07 |
| Zoe_ | if you stick to the basic procedural content and stay away from regex, perl is super easy | 00:08 |
| fluxy | TheEagle: gambas (for vb6 style code) and monodevelop (for vb.net style) | 00:08 |
| tacone | I don't know how to enable glade integration in anjuta. anyone ? | 00:08 |
| Malachi | fluxy: Yeah, I want to learn C# so I can work on Gnome Do. | 00:08 |
| Zoe_ | of course, it's not worth anything without regex | 00:08 |
| fwaokda | my wireless is titled eth1 instead of wlan0 how do i fix this so i can get it working? | 00:08 |
| Malachi | fluxy: But that's some time away. | 00:08 |
| B-rabbit_ | Zoe_, i agree | 00:08 |
| nickrud | TheEagle, I started with forth, I've sworn off all obfuscated dialects ever since | 00:08 |
| KoRn3 | php might be a good intro to some basics | 00:08 |
| godzirra | munim: yeah.. its still telling her GTK can't open the display. | 00:08 |
| serenityUK | towlie: look here is a turorial http://www.onderstekop.nl/articles/116/ | 00:08 |
| godzirra | both methods work fine on my setup. | 00:08 |
| fluxy | Malachi: I wanted to contribute to the MonkeyMessenger project. I got some more way to go tho | 00:08 |
| TheEagle | well... which is the easiest to learn - and is most useful to use and to start learning another language with | 00:09 |
| TheEagle | and quickest to learn | 00:09 |
| nickrud | python, TheEagle | 00:09 |
| kik | TheEagle: python and ruby | 00:09 |
| serenityUK | towlie: that link shows you how to add MyComputer Icons home and trash to desktop | 00:09 |
| TheEagle | i read somewhere that ruby isn't used much at all anymore | 00:09 |
| towlie | ok thanks | 00:09 |
| fluxy | TheEagle: I'd highly recommend learning vb.net | 00:09 |
| === rbs-tito_ is now known as rbs-tito | ||
| Zoe_ | TheEagle, quickest and easiest to learn? LISP. but it's in no way the easiest to get good at :) | 00:09 |
| marvin4 | i want speak freind in msn my email love24_911@hotmail.com | 00:09 |
| TheEagle | i already have - well i kinda taught myself | 00:09 |
| kik | TheEagle: ruby is a bit harder, because of OO, but it has the advantage to lead to ruby on rails | 00:09 |
| munim | TheEagle: IMO, you can start with C | 00:10 |
| fluxy | TheEagle: ruby is a cool language but I don't like interpreted languages except for server side langs like php (my first love :P ) | 00:10 |
| TheEagle | fluxy: can i learn vb.net on ubuntu - i thawt it was microsofts language | 00:10 |
| TheEagle | yes - i like php | 00:10 |
| Malachi | TheEagle: In summary, no one can tell you where to start. Make your choice and go. | 00:10 |
| Malachi | :) | 00:10 |
| kyu_flux | TheEagle: if you choose Ruby, you'll get a kick out of reading Why's (Poignant) Guide to Ruby | 00:11 |
| serenityUK | Zoe_: i do hardcore C++ template but when i see perl do something((;%^$£"££^>{>$))} my breain hurts lol | 00:11 |
| fluxy | TheEagle: There are implementations of opensource .net framework | 00:11 |
| kyu_flux | TheEagle: it was one of the more entertaining programming books that i've ever read | 00:11 |
| LimCore | TheEagle: C is for geeks | 00:11 |
| kik | fluxy: i prefear C too, for sure, but i'm not sure managing pointer is a good point to start with :) | 00:11 |
| serenityUK | Zoe_: brain* | 00:11 |
| LimCore | TheEagle: C++ is good all purpose | 00:11 |
| Malachi | TheEagle: And by go I meant dive in and don't give up. | 00:11 |
| fluxy | kik: i wanted to learn C but i got bumped at this point too lol | 00:11 |
| LimCore | TheEagle: but python/rubby/etc is also nice, and other approach | 00:11 |
| TheEagle | thanks! i have an endless supply of languages to choose from! | 00:11 |
| Zoe_ | serenityUK, lol, that's a great example of why everbody hates perl, and people keep using it :) | 00:11 |
| fluxy | TheEagle: I'd recommend C# | 00:11 |
| LimCore | fluxy: pure C is usually quite waste of time | 00:11 |
| TheEagle | how long does it take to learn a language? | 00:12 |
| kik | fluxy: search on the net for pointer_is_fun.avi ;) | 00:12 |
| marvin4 | i want freind girl | 00:12 |
| LimCore | C is for geeks, C# for MS bitches, I recommend C++ obviously | 00:12 |
| TheEagle | or how long can it take to learn C++ | 00:12 |
| fwaokda | how can i get my wireless to go from eth1 to wlan0 ? | 00:12 |
| marvin4 | hi | 00:12 |
| munim | TheEagle: if its your first attempt, it will take a while.. | 00:12 |
| TheEagle | and python | 00:12 |
| Malachi | marvin4: What? | 00:12 |
| McPeter | hi .. | 00:12 |
| Malachi | I smell a troll. | 00:12 |
| TheEagle | munum: how longs "a while" | 00:12 |
| fluxy | LimCore: am young, wanted to learn my computing history to become a real full fledged geek lol | 00:12 |
| LimCore | TheEagle: year to be good, in any modern lan | 00:12 |
| McPeter | mamat_, read your pv :) | 00:12 |
| serenityUK | TheEagle: about 5years | 00:12 |
| Malachi | Thanks, PriceChild. | 00:12 |
| LimCore | well with any language you always continue to learn | 00:12 |
| munim | TheEagle: it took me a month to understand c++ my first language | 00:12 |
| kik | fluxy: http://fr.youtube.com/watch?v=6pmWojisM_E | 00:12 |
| TheEagle | muni,: thanks alot - where did you learn c++? | 00:13 |
| fluxy | kik: thx am on it ;) | 00:13 |
| tacone | anyone using anjuta and glade here ? | 00:13 |
| verb3k | fluxy, c will soak your time | 00:13 |
| LimCore | TheEagle: you want to be a lamer C++ developer, or real C++ developer? | 00:13 |
| wols | munim: lies make baby jesus kill a kitten. so don't do it | 00:13 |
| munim | TheEagle: school! in indian system of education, they teach you when you are 16 years old | 00:13 |
| LimCore | TheEagle: if you dont want to be lame C++ devel, then learn std and boost libs | 00:13 |
| TheEagle | well... i want to learn it as a hobby | 00:13 |
| fluxy | TheEagle: if u come from vb background, i'd recommend vb.net/c# | 00:13 |
| fluxy | TheEagle: easier | 00:13 |
| LimCore | vb is for retards | 00:13 |
| fwaokda | how can i get my wireless to go from eth1 to wlan0 ? | 00:13 |
| atarinox | ok, so I tried to boot the livecd, made sure my boot order was set to cd first, then it just seemed to read the disk a bit, and take a reallllly long time to boot into feisty. Why would you think this install disk is giving me so much trouble? bad burn? | 00:13 |
| Zoe_ | TheEagle, or java | 00:14 |
| wols | fwaokda: what? | 00:14 |
| LimCore | fluxy: use IE 6. | 00:14 |
| TheEagle | is java like JSP? | 00:14 |
| fluxy | am in for c# tho | 00:14 |
| wols | TheEagle: jsp = java server pages | 00:14 |
| rainwalker | atarinox: live cd can be really low, especially if you have a slow drive | 00:14 |
| TheEagle | because I read half a book about JSP and it sounded kinda fun | 00:14 |
| fwaokda | wols, my wirless is classified as eth1 and it needs to be wlan0 or whatever so it'll work | 00:14 |
| TheEagle | yes i know that wols | 00:14 |
| LimCore | fluxy: use IE 6 | 00:14 |
| fluxy | and .net framework makes life a lot easier for programmers | 00:14 |
| TheEagle | but is it exactly the same language | 00:14 |
| B-rabbit_ | TheEagle, plz join the ubuntu-offtopic channel....cause this is the ubuntu support channel, this channel is not ment for general conversations | 00:14 |
| wols | fwaokda: that's wrong. it doesn't matter what its named. ever | 00:14 |
| atarinox | rainwalker: I let the boot run it's full course though...just seemed to eventually boot off the hard drive | 00:14 |
| vincenz | TheEagle: start with a language like: python, lua or scheme | 00:14 |
| Zoe_ | TheEagle, they are somewhat related | 00:14 |
| verb3k | TheEagle, C++ will soak your time, try python or shell scripting first until you learn the concepts... | 00:14 |
| LimCore | fluxy: use IE 6, microsoft's quallified browser makes life much easier | 00:15 |
| * wols agrees with vincenz | 00:15 | |
| fluxy | lolz no thx | 00:15 |
| vincenz | python, lua or scheme are all good beginner languages with al ot of poewr so they're -not- only beginner languages | 00:15 |
| fwaokda | wols, i think b4 i used two commands: sudo modprobe ndiswrapper && sudo depmod -a | 00:15 |
| TheEagle | ok ill learn python first | 00:15 |
| atarinox | rainwalker: should I disable harddrive boot altogether? | 00:15 |
| fwaokda | wols, i dont know if those commands are correct though | 00:15 |
| TheEagle | i need help - how can i install python | 00:15 |
| serenityUK | atarinox: if you press F6 at boot options and delete the word 'splash' it will hide the logo so you can read any error messages.. also small ram slows it down 128mb is impossible with livecd | 00:15 |
| tacone | TheEagle: python is better for an hobbist :-) | 00:15 |
| LimCore | fluxy: well you recommend C# and VB, so, since you are a noob, you might as well use IE 6 | 00:15 |
| vincenz | TheEagle: sudo apt-get install python | 00:15 |
| rainwalker | atarinox: I don't know...but I wouldn't recommend it | 00:15 |
| TheEagle | thanks | 00:15 |
| * verb3k slaps LimCore for promoting IE | 00:15 | |
| TheEagle | and how do i compile? | 00:15 |
| fluxy | LimCore: not coz am a noob coz I understand that guy | 00:15 |
| * LimCore hands verb3k a wikipedia article on sarcazm | 00:15 | |
| vincenz | TheEagle: you don't need to | 00:15 |
| vincenz | TheEagle: just start 'python' | 00:16 |
| wols | fwaokda: sequence is wrong. and you only need to do depmod -a once ever | 00:16 |
| B-rabbit_ | TheEagle, when did you install ubuntu? | 00:16 |
| fwaokda | so do the second then the first? | 00:16 |
| TheEagle | B-rabbit_: erm.... 2-3 weeks ago | 00:16 |
| nickrud | TheEagle, it's already installed, install diveintopython for a book, it'll be in /usr/share/doc/diveintopython | 00:16 |
| * verb3k didn't know that LimCore was making an irony and therefore apologizes to him :) | 00:16 | |

| shawn | Hello, I'm trying to use a monitor on my Desktop with Ubuntu and I get a blank screen after logging in, but the login splash screen looks fine. Also, I get an error when I try to use mplayer in the terminal: | 00:16 |
| B-rabbit_ | TheEagle, ok...i would highly recommend learning the basic terminal command's first...before you start doing anything :) | 00:17 |
| shawn | woops | 00:17 |
| TheEagle | B-rabbit: ok | 00:17 |
| vo | shawn: ? | 00:17 |
| fluxy | TheEagle: go there: http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Wikibooks:Programming_languages_bookshelf | 00:17 |
| vo | oh video output | 00:17 |
| vo | lol | 00:17 |
| shawn | hahaha | 00:17 |
| fluxy | TheEagle:make ur choice and get started. enuf said. | 00:17 |
| vincenz | wols: I could tell him to learn Haskell :) | 00:17 |
| shawn | sorry vo | 00:17 |
| atarinox | should I be able to run the wubi-cdboot.exe file on the CD? | 00:17 |
| TheEagle | ive made my choice | 00:17 |
| serenityUK | verb3k: that's why we have smilies.. his fault not urs | 00:17 |
| TheEagle | so python requires no compiling? | 00:17 |
| vincenz | TheEagle: no | 00:18 |
| TheEagle | well, how does that work? | 00:18 |
| fluxy | interpreted language | 00:18 |
| TheEagle | if i want to create a PROGRAM in python? | 00:18 |
| munim | TheEagle: its an interpreted language | 00:18 |
| TheEagle | whats one of those | 00:18 |
| Malachi | Since we're way off topic and talking about programming, after you know the basics, what's the best way to practice? | 00:18 |
| Phopsy | Hi all, I'm trying to back-up my hard-drive data from a Live CD but it claims some contents of my HDD are unreadable - is this a permissions thing, or is my HDD likely to be corrupt? | 00:18 |
| * wols mentions psyco and pypy | 00:18 | |
| vincenz | Malachi: by practicing :) | 00:18 |
| nickrud | !ot | TheEagle you should talk about this there | 00:18 |
| ubotu | TheEagle you should talk about this there: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! | 00:18 |
| * fluxy bangs his head on the table | 00:18 | |
| vincenz | TheEagle: I suggest asking on #python | 00:18 |
| Malachi | vincenz: I mean, are there any good challenges or such? If it were a class, I'd learn quicker for the grade. But since it's not...motivation? | 00:19 |
| LimCore | TheEagle: noobs prefer php, vb, etc; It's like crack, awesome at first but then makes you misserable; Pro use C++ (with std/boost!!) or java (both are simmilar); less simmilar but also good are python,rubby totally other approach but also good-excelent for some tasks are functionall: haskel, erlang | 00:19 |
| TheEagle | how do i add a new channel to XChat on ubuntu | 00:19 |
| nickrud | Malachi, recreate a program you like | 00:19 |
| fluxy | wikipedia and google are great tools. USE them | 00:19 |
| LimCore | TheEagle: C# is C++ for microsoft biatches, basicly | 00:19 |
| B-rabbit_ | TheEagle, join the #python channel | 00:19 |
| PriceChild | TheEagle, /join #nameofchannel | 00:19 |
| vincenz | Malachi: well, depeds what sort o things you want to make | 00:19 |
| Malachi | Hm? | 00:19 |
| serenityUK | Phopsy: try clonzilla http://clonezilla.sourceforge.net/ it's a rescue CD meant for macking up partitions | 00:19 |
| TheEagle | thanks PriceChild | 00:19 |
| serenityUK | Phopsy: backing* | 00:19 |
| TheEagle | will it open a new node? or will i lose this channel | 00:20 |
| Malachi | nickrud: Another thing. How soon before I start Python + GTK? | 00:20 |
| fluxy | new node | 00:20 |
| vincenz | Malachi: do you wish to play with guis, then recreate some gui-program, do you want to learn about algorithms, then try some algorithm problems | 00:20 |
| Malachi | Terminal stuff kind of bores me, but I'm sticking with it. | 00:20 |

| shamas | fluxy, I did that it's still not working... | 00:26 |

| scragar | dan_: fstab works in real time, so I doubt it | 00:27 |
| dan_ | scragar: if i pastebin-ed my fstab file, could you please check it? | 00:27 |
| scragar | dan_: if you've edited your fstab just umount then mount them again, that'd proberly fix it | 00:28 |
| shawn | Has anyone had problems with Ubuntu hanging after login screen on a Dell Dimension 2400? | 00:28 |

| shamas | fluxy, I'm using xmms | 00:29 |
| scragar | dan_: oh, and yeah, pastebin it and I'll take a look. | 00:29 |
| munim | shamas: i think its xmms2-plugin-mad | 00:29 |
| dan_ | scragar: i tried that, i got a error on umount: "/dev busy, /var/run busy & / busy" on mount -a i hear the harddrive thinking, but nothing happens, i get a print of the output as such: http://recoding.pastebin.org/12569 | 00:31 |

| scragar | dan_: what I meant by umount was to just umount your two partitions that were causing the trouble: "umount /dev/hda1 /dev/hdb1" -- "umount -a" unmounts everything it can, which is the reason for your error. | 00:34 |

| linxuz3r | my computer is making noise like its coming from a fan. i unplugged the fan but the noise is still there. it seems that the cpu is making the noise. what could be the cause of this? | 00:38 |
| x_link | My speaker next to the clock looks like that. | 00:38 |
| Pelo | PurpZeY, specific questions are more likely to get you answers | 00:38 |
| linxuz3r | my computer is making noise like its coming from a fan. i unplugged the fan but the noise is still there. it seems that the cpu is making the noise. what could be the cause of this? | 00:38 |
| nickrud | linxuz3r, your cpu fan maybe? | 00:38 |
| munim | linzuz3r: don't unplug your cpu fan.. it will heat up! | 00:38 |
| linxuz3r | its not the fan | 00:38 |
| Pelo | x_link, check in menyu > system > admin < users , make sure your user has permission to use sound devices | 00:39 |
| PurpZeY | Pelo: I am familiar with the protocol...I am really just looking to see if anyone knows a model that works well, I looked at the supported hardware list and it is rather small given what's out there, leads me to believe maybe it's out of date and there's other stuff that works | 00:39 |
| linxuz3r | well i just tried to unplug it to dtermine whats the problem | 00:39 |
| scragar | dan_: why don't you have anything set to mount to / ? | 00:39 |
| munim | linxuz3r: probably some parts of your cpu are loose... tighten the screws up | 00:39 |
| Pelo | PurpZeY, vesa should get you going , at least until you can figure something better | 00:39 |
| nickrud | linxuz3r, maybe the bits are trying to escape? (sorry, not a clue :) | 00:40 |
| x_link | Pelo: I'm in system now, but I don't find Admin? | 00:40 |

| * nickrud thinks Pelo shouldn't talk about them like they're 'other' | 00:40 | |
| PurpZeY | Pelo: Well, my intentions, hopefully are to add a blue tooth pointing device (Wiimote), but my laptop doesn't have blue-tooth, so I was looking for a model that would serve that function.... | 00:40 |

| fluxy | anyone knows how to edit mime entries in ubuntu? (like .docx from 'application/archive' to 'application/msword') | 00:41 |
| jadder | hello | 00:41 |
| scragar | dan_: for the moment run "mount" without any arguments to find out what is mounted where, pastebin it if you need help | 00:41 |
| Pelo | x_link, I don't know where to find the user permissions settings in kde, sorry, you'll have to figure that part out on your own, but usualy when you don'T get the volume control icon it is because your user does not have permission to use sound devices, it is easily corrected, if you know where to look | 00:42 |
| linxuz3r | the noise is comming from the cpu | 00:42 |
| Zoe_ | ok, after running dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, it still boots into a black screen. any suggestions? | 00:42 |
| x_link | Pelo: Okey, thanks anyway. | 00:42 |
| nickrud | x_link, the people on #kubuntu probably could help | 00:42 |
| PurpZeY | Pelo: Of course, I don't just want to go out and buy a USB/Bluetooth dongle w/o knowing if there's compatibility, so that's why I ask a general question | 00:42 |
| x_link | nickrud: They couldn't | 00:42 |
| esteth | Wow. Someone should advertise alt-F1 for menu more readily. I just chanced upon it, but wow! that gives me lots more panel space :) | 00:42 |
| nickrud | Zoe_, how long do you wait for the X screen to come up? | 00:42 |
| nickrud | x_link, I was thinking about the permissions | 00:43 |
| dan_ | scragar: this? /dev/hdb2 on / type ext3 (rw,errors=remount-ro) | 00:43 |
| Zoe_ | nickrud, it's been about 1 minutes now. already had the sound cue for logon | 00:43 |

| x_link | Well thanks alot anyway! | 00:43 |
| x_link | Good Bye | 00:43 |
| scragar | dan_: right, so you should edit fstab to set /dev/hdb2 to /, boot will fail without that :P | 00:44 |
| nickrud | Zoe_, oh, that one. I did sudo dpkg-reconfigure -pcritical xserver-xorg to get a true default. | 00:44 |
| PurpZeY | Pelo: No worries, I figured Vesa wasn't....I was just looking to see if anyone had experienced one particular one working, or if there was a forum thread | 00:44 |
| dan_ | scragar: thanks for saving my life :P | 00:44 |
| nickrud | Zoe_, can you ctl-alt-f1 and get a console terminal? | 00:44 |
| Ljorring | plux: Im having trouble connecting to the NXT... could you give me a hint somehow, or is everything forgotten? xD | 00:44 |
| Zoe_ | nickrud, yes, there right now | 00:45 |
| esteth | SomeName9929: Yes. the ffmpeg command line tool should do it, and there should in theory be some GUIs for this task somewhere? | 00:45 |
| Zoe_ | whats the -pcritical switch do? | 00:45 |
| wy | Is fdisk to old to be used to partition hds? | 00:45 |
| dan_ | scragar: this is a pastebin of the mount output, and the modified fstab, please check, thankyou for your help :) http://recoding.pastebin.org/12573 | 00:45 |
| nickrud | Zoe_, it recreates your xorg.conf as if you were on a fresh install | 00:46 |
| nickrud | Zoe_, asks zero questions | 00:46 |
| Zoe_ | nickrud, this is a fresh install | 00:46 |
| fluxy | SomeName9929: See the Add/Remove list. there is ireverter, altho i have never tried it myself | 00:46 |

| Zoe_ | nickrud, nvidia geforce 7300 gt x2 | 00:47 |
| === N1pp00 is now known as Nippoo | ||
| scragar | dan_: you have /dev/hdb2 mounted twice... | 00:47 |
| fluxy | munim: thanx a lot | 00:47 |
| nickrud | Zoe_, that should work straight out of the box with the normal nv driver. If it doesn't I'm not sure what your problem is. I don't have much experience with nvidia | 00:47 |
| munim | fluxy: no problem :-0 | 00:47 |
| ConstyXIV | anyone using a twitter client in ubuntu that they like? | 00:48 |

| munim | ConstyXIV: i use twitter via IM from pidgin | 00:48 |
| Zoe_ | nickrud, I've had a lot of problems with these cards before. before gutsy, I would have to run envy after every kernel update. now, no envy and they seem to hate me | 00:48 |
| dan_ | scragar: my computer is funny like that..or is it the operator.. :( i hate it when i break things | 00:48 |
| bulmer | askand-> check the exit status of the 1st script or command | 00:48 |
| Pici | askand: man sleep | 00:48 |
| Zoe_ | trying it with nvidia-glx now | 00:49 |
| nickrud | Zoe_, if envy worked, then try editing /etc/X11/xorg.conf and replacing nv with nvidia | 00:49 |
| scragar | dan_: first thing I'd do would be to reorder fstab to put /dev/hdb2 at the top, that way your sure it mounts first. then I'd proberly restart to get rid of your double, should also make the disk options appear on your desktop. | 00:50 |
| Jahooty | are there tools to recover files from an ntfs partition on a drive that's been formatted over with ext3 without needing to make an image first? | 00:50 |

| dan_ | scragar: Okay, rebooting, thankyou for your help! | 00:51 |
| PriceChild | thedoor, ask your question and someone will answer if they know the answer. | 00:51 |

| robdig | Pir8: apt-get remove package | 01:08 |
| LimCore | to provide basic thing like fonts | 01:08 |
| poningru | !flash | 01:09 |
| ubotu | To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash | 01:09 |
| ubotu | The Flash plugin installation is currently broken. This is due to Adobe changing the tar file that the package downloads. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=636397 if you need to fix this immediately, but it's recommended to wait for an official fix. | 01:09 |
| Pir8 | robdig, yes I did that, the second time I reinstall proftpd it configures it automatically as inet and does not ask | 01:09 |
| Pelo | !fonts | LimCore | 01:09 |
| ubotu | LimCore: Font installation basics here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FontInstallHowto - No fonts in Flash? Install "msttcorefonts" (from !Multiverse), "gsfonts", and "gsfonts-x11". No fonts in MPlayer? see !MPlayer | 01:09 |
| poningru | !sound | 01:09 |
| 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 | 01:09 |

| Odd-rationale | !flashissues | smilevil | 01:09 |
| ubotu | smilevil: please see above | 01:09 |
| scragar | LimCore: ubuntu provides tons of fonts, and you can install as many as you want to ~/.fonts | 01:09 |
| LimCore | scragar: typical latin chars, it should work out of the box | 01:10 |

| poningru | UbuntMe: you do not have virus on your computer | 01:10 |
| Pelo | kyleBAKED, I find that in ubuntu having two usb divices connecte to the same inlet pair is not so good, try pluggin your hdd to a seperate pair then the mouse or other device, lke at the back fo the comp if you are using the front one, if you get me | 01:10 |
| UbuntMe | Well, heres what the virus does | 01:10 |
| scragar | UbuntMe: opnly one virus has ever been sucsessfull on linux, and it's long gone now | 01:11 |
| UbuntMe | My friends say there getting messages on msn messenger that say stuff like "www.whatever.com ;) ) then i log off right when i say that | 01:11 |
| Dr_willis | and it was just a 'test virus' wasent it? design concept? | 01:11 |
| smilevil | i can play mp3 on amarok, it's just youtube , google video, on internet, i can't listen to it | 01:11 |

| scragar | Dr_willis: I don't know details, just that it was named "serenity" | 01:12 |
| poningru | whats the whatever.com? | 01:12 |
| UbuntMe | I am right now to talk to u guys | 01:12 |
| Condoulo | I have a question about ATI drivers. | 01:12 |

| poningru | Condoulo: whatsup? | 01:12 |
| kyleBAKED | Pelo, i meant that the usb port itself is working because it works with my mouse, its not a faulty port or anything | 01:12 |
| Dr_willis | we all know IRC beats MSN :) | 01:12 |
| windsor510 | Hi, anyone know anything about tunneling X-windows apps through an ssh session? | 01:12 |

| Condoulo | poningru- On the most recent version it says it supports AIGLX. That means I don't need to use XGL anymore, correct? | 01:13 |
| robdig | Pir8: how about dpkg-reconfigure package? | 01:13 |
| thor | windsor510 what do you need? | 01:13 |
| poningru | Condoulo: yes | 01:13 |
| Pelo | kyleBAKED, lsusb doesn't bring up the hdd ? | 01:13 |
| Dr_willis | windsor510, ssh and that feature is documented all over the place. :) in short.. ssh -X you.remote.machine , then run the app. | 01:13 |
| UbuntMe | hold on, you have it as well? | 01:13 |
| windsor510 | UbuntMe: I think Pidgin is better | 01:13 |
| poningru | Condoulo: correct rather | 01:13 |
| jadder | Pelo, my friend smilevil has a problem can you help him, please? | 01:13 |
| scragar | UbuntMe: kopete has a problem when running on gnome, so depends on if your running Gnome or KDE | 01:13 |
| Hex_101 | UbuntMe: i have amsn yes, but not the 'virus' | 01:13 |
| Condoulo | poningru- How can I tell if mines is the most recent? | 01:13 |
| Dr_willis | windsor510, or ssh -Y, assuming the enable x forearding is allowed for the server. | 01:13 |
| Pelo | jadder, what is the problem i haven't notices his quesiton | 01:13 |
| Pir8 | robdig, I shall try that. Thanks. | 01:13 |
| UbuntMe | Ya, i use pidgin for this kinda chat, i guess i'll use it for everything | 01:13 |
| poningru | Condoulo: the ati driver? | 01:13 |
| poningru | where did you install it? | 01:13 |
| fluxy | Hex_101: Same with me, maybe a rogue plugin? | 01:14 |
| jadder | smilevil, say your problem to Pelo , | 01:14 |
| windsor510 | thor: I'll try Dr_willis' advice, brb. thanks, btw. | 01:14 |
| robdig | Pir8: need to sudo it :) | 01:14 |
| poningru | Condoulo: err as in where did you install it from? | 01:14 |
| Hex_101 | fluxy: im thinking that yea, im checking the ones on their site, and the ones i have, | 01:14 |
| Pir8 | right. | 01:14 |
| Hex_101 | just need to know what the whatever.com is | 01:14 |

| UbuntMe | Ok, heres somthing one of my friends sent me, there different sometimes though... "http://bkutusu.info ;)" | 01:15 |

| Condoulo | poningru- So is AIGLX installed by default with the ATI driver? | 01:15 |
| windsor510 | I'm using putty on a window$ machine, I have to see if it's got an option that's equivalent | 01:15 |
| UbuntMe | Hex_101: cool | 01:15 |

| RenatoSilva | Pelo: it does on the fairy stories! | 01:15 |
| poningru | Condoulo: no | 01:15 |
| Dr_willis | UbuntMe, he sent you a URL of a RingTone Sales Site as a Log out message? | 01:15 |
| poningru | you have to install that seperately | 01:15 |
| Condoulo | Poningru- How would I install aiglx? | 01:15 |
| poningru | !aiglx | 01:15 |
| ubotu | AIGLX is a project that aims to enable GL-accelerated effects on a standard desktop. Supported cards: Nvidia: GeForce3 or newer; ATI: Radeon 7000 through X800; Intel: i810 or newer. Howto: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/AIGLX. For older Nvidia or newer ATI cards see !xgl | 01:15 |

| Condoulo | ok | 01:16 |
| fluxy | UbuntMe: Do Account > Select Plugins and see what plugins u got installed | 01:16 |

| Pelo | smilevil, , what problem are you having ? | 01:16 |
| UbuntMe | fluxy: ok | 01:16 |
| fluxy | UbuntMe: If you RECEIVE then your fwens got a prob, but if u also SEND then you might be having the problem | 01:17 |
| smilevil | Pelo, i can't listen the sound of youtube and i've tried to reinstall flash, to edit /etc/firefoxrc, i don't think is about firefox because i've installed opera and is the same | 01:17 |
| * Dr_willis wonders if this is the start of some MSN exploit/spam. | 01:17 | |
| RenatoSilva | Pelo: the whole thing is so stupid that if I want to put you the error msg, I'd have to start the process again and wait about 5-10 minutes, because I'm on a dioaled connection and the stupid update tool always dowlnoad again something enigmatic | 01:17 |

| jadder | but you had have it before to donwload | 01:20 |
| Milotin | kinit : No resume image , doing normal boot | 01:21 |
| RenatoSilva | Why can't I use Live CD to upgrade Ubuntu?????? | 01:21 |
| Pelo | RenatoSilva, ok when you get a stage one error, where it cna't find the kernel, return to the grub menu, select the kernel you want, hit e for edit, usual you need to edit the root (hd0,0) line to return it to the correct partition whre /boot/grub/menu.lst is stored | 01:21 |
| fluxy | Dr_Willis: Actually Account > Preferences > Others | 01:21 |
| Dr_willis | fluxy, i hope thers some settings for the fonts also.. amsn looks... DISGUSTING.. :) | 01:21 |
| Milotin | and the command you gave me doesn`t work | 01:21 |
| Pelo | smilevil, , you should try installing it from the repos | 01:21 |
| Pelo | !flash | smilevil | 01:21 |
| ubotu | smilevil: To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash | 01:21 |
| ubotu | The Flash plugin installation is currently broken. This is due to Adobe changing the tar file that the package downloads. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=636397 if you need to fix this immediately, but it's recommended to wait for an official fix. | 01:21 |
| UbuntMe | fluxy: really? it says it from the Amsn team | 01:21 |
| Arcusmay | i add the file with my burner | 01:21 |
| Arcusmay | then | 01:21 |
| munim | Milotin: oh. then i guess it was nothing to do with your display | 01:21 |
| Hex_101 | Dr_willis: i had a look, cant find any, if you get any mail them to me :D | 01:21 |
| Arcusmay | it says add an iso image | 01:21 |
| RenatoSilva | Pelo: it has got nothing with kernel, but with some Packages.gz that gzip could not fetch | 01:22 |
| Arcusmay | and i selec the file again, and it loads, then says cannot be found | 01:22 |
| fluxy | Dr_Willis: There are such options. Besides you can skin it :) | 01:22 |
| Milotin | so what do i have to do ? | 01:22 |
| Pelo | !enter | RenatoSilva | 01:22 |

| fluxy | UbuntMe: http://www.amsn-project.net/plugins.php | 01:22 |
| Zoe_ | how can I stop my xserver from running? | 01:22 |
| fluxy | UbuntMe: Try disabling the plugin and then restart amsn | 01:22 |
| Dr_willis | Fluxy too bad they dident include a skin that dosent make me want to stop using amsn befor i even start. :P) | 01:22 |
| smilevil | Pelo, i have installed from repos and is the same problem | 01:22 |
| RenatoSilva | Pelo: justify your enter message | 01:23 |
| Pelo | RenatoSilva, I can'T realy help with that I'M afraid, for future use, I recommend you instal ubuntu with your /home folder on a seperate partiton, this will allow you to reinstall from scratch withouth loosing any data or settings if the upgrade does not work properly | 01:23 |
| RenatoSilva | Why can't I use Live CD to upgrade Ubuntu?????? | 01:23 |
| munim | Milotin: hmm... sorry.. i don't know... try googling it | 01:23 |
| Pelo | RenatoSilva, , my apologies, wrong user, I got distracted by your post while i was typing | 01:23 |
| UbuntMe | fluxy: i think i might know the problem! | 01:23 |
| frandavid100 | hiya | 01:23 |

| Pelo | RenatoSilva, you cna use the live dvd, I donT, know why the live cd doesn't work | 01:24 |
| UbuntMe | fluxy: ok, i added smartershild as a contact, you know the robot thing that u can chat with? | 01:24 |
| RenatoSilva | Pelo: but this upgrade fault is just stupid, and makes me thinking on Windows | 01:24 |
| UbuntMe | well, when u talk to it, it sends you links and stuff | 01:24 |
| fluxy | UbuntMe: Never heard of this one - I know spleak tho | 01:24 |
| Hex_101 | yea i know of it | 01:24 |
| scragar | Arcusmay: it's a problem with your burning software or download from the error message... | 01:24 |
| frandavid100 | It seems I can't use the "at" command properly... can someone tell me how to (for example) launch totem at 02:30? | 01:24 |
| Hex_101 | speak/smarterchoid have the same parents | 01:24 |
| UbuntMe | i think this might be it | 01:24 |
| fluxy | UbuntMe: What's with him? | 01:24 |
| Arcusmay | My cd burn software says Burn Succesfully burned. But the CD is still blank | 01:24 |
| UbuntMe | i duno | 01:24 |
| Pelo | RenatoSilva, feel free to return to windows, linux is not a cult, ppl are free to come and go as they please | 01:24 |
| Dr_willis | Well.. msn wont let me use my hotmail email account.. and it says the answer to my password 'question' is too short.. I think i am giving up on MSN now. :) | 01:24 |
| Arcusmay | I downloaded it fromn the Ubuntu website | 01:25 |
| Hex_101 | UbuntMe: the only thing that smarterchoid can do is send memos to other users | 01:25 |
| fluxy | UbuntMe: you tried disabling the plugin? | 01:25 |
| RenatoSilva | Pelo: are you being paid or just a FOSS religious? | 01:25 |
| fwaokda | poningru, doesn't work says the driver is invalid :( | 01:25 |
| Pelo | RenatoSilva, neither I just enjoy the product | 01:25 |
| redd0t | hello everybody | 01:25 |
| RenatoSilva | Pelo: your comment is stupid | 01:25 |
| UbuntMe | Hex_101: Do u think that he might be masking his identity as me and sending links to my friends? | 01:25 |
| fluxy | Dr_Willis: I wish I could do that (too many contacts bind me to msn tho) | 01:26 |
| Hex_101 | UbuntMe: nope, its a bot, it couldnt do that | 01:26 |
| voidmage | Is there any way to remove window borders in metacity? | 01:26 |
| fluxy | UbuntMe: Besides it's just a contact, he shouldn't be able to control your client | 01:26 |
| LimCore | Bitstream* fonts are messed up in newest 7.10 amd64 apparently. Who can I tell directly so he can fix it now?żółć | 01:26 |

| Hex_101 | UbuntMe: have you tried in #amsn? | 01:27 |
| UbuntMe | fluxy: ya, i'm deleating him anyway just incase | 01:27 |
| scragar | Arcusmay: I don't suppose you would know how to check the md5 sum of your download? | 01:27 |
| RenatoSilva | Pelo: btw is what i'm gonna do soon | 01:27 |
| UbuntMe | Hex_101: nope | 01:27 |
| Hex_101 | UbuntMe: best to try there if the plugin idea doesnt fix it | 01:27 |
| * jimd is showing someone something. | 01:27 | |

| poningru | the .inf? | 01:28 |
| scragar | Arcusmay: yes | 01:28 |
| UbuntMe | fluxy: i think i might use pidgin | 01:28 |
| fwaokda | bcmwl6.inf | 01:28 |
| Pelo | Arcusmay, if you want to burn the ubuntu cd yes | 01:28 |
| poningru | where did you get that? | 01:28 |
| Pelo | Arcusmay, hold on | 01:28 |
| Arcusmay | Ok | 01:28 |
| poningru | its supposed to be bcmwl5.inf | 01:28 |
| poningru | that was working perfectly for me | 01:28 |
| Arcusmay | I have been trying this and its just not burning :S | 01:28 |
| Pelo | Arcusmay, what are you using to burn the cd ? what app ? | 01:28 |
| fluxy | UbuntMe: I kind of hate pidgin, but use it if u must. Could you please try removing the plugin and telling us if it works? | 01:28 |
| Arcusmay | Pelo - Express Burn | 01:29 |

| fluxy | Hex_101: It's ultra fast and never fails to deliver msg | 01:29 |
| RenatoSilva | Pelo: installing from scratch will erase all my apps and its configs, remeber that not all config keeps in home. I'd loose almost everything (well, it's not the end of the world, but I'm tired of pass hours reinstalling and getting back my specific packages and configuring a quite lot of stuff) | 01:29 |
| scragar | Hex_101: what's a console based MSN? I will have to try and use it... | 01:29 |
| Hex_101 | fluxy: *gets excited :D* | 01:29 |
| Pelo | Arcusmay, I don't know that one, but many apps have this option where you are creating a .iso image instead of burning to a cd, make sure you don't hae a burn to a file option checked and that you are burning to a cd | 01:30 |
| smilevil | Pelo, i've installed flash player from repo and is the same, i can't get sound | 01:30 |
| fluxy | UbuntMe: It tries to do everything and is lame at everything | 01:30 |

| Arcusmay | OHhh that sounds like waht it is doing Pelo, im trying to change that setting | 01:30 |
| fluxy | UbuntMe: XChat | 01:30 |
| UbuntMe | fluxy: is that what your using? | 01:30 |
| Pelo | smilevil, I can't help any further, you will have to wait untill the flash package gets fixed , or you might want to reisntall yet again , bur first , fine every file that contains the word "flash" on your hdd and delete them | 01:31 |
| fluxy | UbuntMe: XChat for IRC and amsn+tmsnc for msn (when my connection gets poor I use tmsnc) | 01:31 |
| fwaokda | poningru, ok i got the l5.inf in there but it wont let me remove the l6.inf :( | 01:31 |
| Arcusmay | Pelo, it says, Select enter an iso image to create. And it says save..if i try to save to the cd, it says i don't have permission | 01:31 |
| poningru | fwaokda: what do you mean wont let you remove it? | 01:31 |
| fluxy | Hex_101: Hint you might want to use AllTray together with tmsnc to have it minimized to tray | 01:32 |
| fwaokda | in the windows there are two drivers there and i can't remove the invalid one | 01:32 |
| Pelo | Arcusmay, you are doing this from ubuntu ? | 01:32 |

| atlantis | who's got the alchohol? | 01:37 |
| Pelo | Arcusmay, it very probably wonT' be where you got to select the file to burn to that you were getting earlier, , maybe you are using the wrong option in the menus, if you are making an iso , this is not it, you should be looking for burn image to cd or something similar | 01:37 |
| Pelo | atlantis, wrong chanel | 01:37 |
| sinthetek | has anyone else experienced any problems with network daemons in gutsy taking longer than they should to respond properly? | 01:37 |

| poningru | login | 01:39 |

| poningru | do a sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop | 01:39 |

| dbmoodb | hi after installing ubuntu it sets up grub *ubuntu* to boot from hd(1,0) which is wrong. it needs to boot from 0,0 (two disks sata is faster and is on 0 i believe - and is where i installed too) | 01:42 |

| poningru | godzirra: whats wrong? | 01:42 |
| dbmoodb | i can change the grub menu.lst but how do i then apply those changes ? | 01:42 |
| poningru | dbmoodb: when you restart it should be applied | 01:42 |
| thor | dbmoodb they get applied at the next bootup | 01:42 |
| askand | If I put this in a bashscript "cedega -run programfolder program && sudo umount /media/cdrom0" it automaticly umounts the media before game starts.. can I fix this? | 01:42 |

| nickrud | godzirra, did you do emerald --replace ? | 01:44 |
| dbmoodb | heatmzzr | 01:44 |
| dbmoodb | !dvd | 01:44 |
| Zoe_ | there we go | 01:44 |
| godzirra | nickrud: it just seems to hang when I do that. | 01:44 |
| Zoe_ | poningru, thank you | 01:44 |
| dbmoodb | or not... | 01:44 |
| poningru | Zoe_: I wasnt fully helpful sorry about that :) | 01:44 |
| nickrud | godzirra, then you probably have some cruft left over from that other install .... | 01:44 |
| poningru | thanks should go to nickrud | 01:44 |
| voidmage | Is there ANY way to get metacity to not draw window borders for certain windows? | 01:44 |
| askand | thor: but then I need to know for how long I will run the program that particualr time? | 01:44 |
| heatmzzr | yeah dbmood | 01:45 |
| Zoe_ | lol, thank you all | 01:45 |
| godzirra | nickrud: the uninstall -says- it uninstalled it all. I think it mayhave removed something important to emerald as well though (that I didnt reinstall, or that apt doesnt know got removed) | 01:45 |
| poningru | voidmage: I think you can do that with the compiz configuration manager iirc | 01:45 |
| RenatoSilva | the upgrade gives this error: Failed to fetch http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/feisty-updates/multiverse/binary-i386/Packages.gz Sub-process gzip returned an error code (1). What's the solution?????????? | 01:45 |
| Zoe_ | I haven't seen this ugly brown wallpaper for 7 hours now | 01:45 |
| dbmoodb | so when i get a kernel update won't grub just go back to hd(1,0) ? | 01:45 |
| godzirra | nickrud: and lookign at the directories it installed stuff too, it seems like it uninstalled it all. | 01:45 |
| nickrud | poningru, no, I was talking with Zoe_ earlier & couldn't help, don't know nvidia | 01:45 |
| sinthetek | i'm been grappling with this on and off a few days and if i cannot find a resolution i will have to downgrade back to feisty or switch my sister to another distro since her system doubles as db server and development webserver for our business | 01:45 |
| thor | askand well if you want it to remain mounted unil you quit the game jus tput the umount command on the next line | 01:45 |
| voidmage | poningru: do you know the specific window rules? | 01:45 |
| dbmoodb | ahaahahah - tis running ubuntu sin ? | 01:45 |
| thor | askand the script won't finish til you finish the game | 01:45 |
| poningru | voidmage: sorry dude :( | 01:45 |
| richard | can someone give me a hand? using growisofs I get failed with SK=4h/ASC=08h/ACQ=03h two out of three times... | 01:46 |
| RenatoSilva | nobody knows? can't believe | 01:46 |
| nickrud | godzirra, I don't know that install method you're talking aobut | 01:46 |
| godzirra | let me find it again | 01:46 |
| poningru | RenatoSilva: are you sure you have internet? | 01:46 |
| poningru | are you on the same computer as this? | 01:46 |
| dbmoodb | i recommend debian etch :) -stable for you | 01:46 |
| dbmoodb | sinth | 01:46 |
| dbmoodb | or long release ubuntu | 01:46 |
| sinthetek | dbmoodb: ? sister has been running ubuntu about 2 years | 01:46 |
| sinthetek | she's 13 | 01:46 |
| dbmoodb | so | 01:46 |
| godzirra | nickrud: http://elemongw.exofire.net/download/git4cf_auto | 01:46 |
| godzirra | GIT4CF | 01:47 |
| poningru | RenatoSilva: do a ping archive.ubuntu.com | 01:47 |
| dbmoodb | if its a webserver ... | 01:47 |
| poningru | in a terminal | 01:47 |
| sinthetek | dbmoodb: you are the one who thought it was funny | 01:47 |
| sinthetek | ;) | 01:47 |
| dbmoodb | well if it is a webserver ... | 01:47 |
| dbmoodb | then she probably shouldn't be touching it | 01:47 |
| godzirra | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=508769&highlight=GIT4CF | 01:47 |
| godzirra | nickrud: thats the link to the ubuntuforums for it. | 01:47 |
| sinthetek | ahh, it worked fine as a webserver in feisty, just having problems with incoming connections in gutsy | 01:48 |
| RenatoSilva | poningru: how do u think i'm talking with you? I'm an X-men? | 01:48 |
| sinthetek | dbmoodb: it's *primary* function is my sister's desktop | 01:48 |
| poningru | RenatoSilva: yes... probably proffesor X | 01:48 |
| poningru | or maybe jean grey | 01:48 |
| RenatoSilva | poningru: uahushus | 01:48 |
| sinthetek | though she could use it just as effectively in any distro probably since she only uses it for basic tasks | 01:48 |
| nickrud | godzirra, ohhh, from version control .... | 01:48 |
| dbmoodb | mmm personally i would not be using a desktop as a web server if it is hosting something important and then let a 13 year old play with it | 01:48 |

| godzirra | nickrud: right... didn't work so well, so I uninstalled via the same program. | 01:49 |
| dbmoodb | - power buttons | 01:49 |
| sinthetek | dbmoodb: i said 'development' webserver | 01:49 |
| dbmoodb | oh | 01:49 |
| poningru | RenatoSilva: what does the ping say? | 01:49 |
| sinthetek | dbmoodb: it is primary mysqld though | 01:49 |
| dbmoodb | thought you meant as in .. | 01:49 |
| godzirra | nickrud: it seems to have uninstalled it all, but I think it removed something that was important that apt doesn't know is gone, so I can't say what it is. | 01:49 |
| askand | thor: doesnt work :/ | 01:49 |
| poningru | sinthetek: its taking too long for ssh and http? | 01:49 |
| Condoulo | I downloaded the most recent version of my ATI driver from AMD, but it downloads as a .run file. | 01:49 |
| nickrud | godzirra, did you reinstall emerald ? | 01:49 |
| godzirra | Yup. | 01:49 |
| Condoulo | how would I install | 01:50 |
| RenatoSilva | poningru: open the file! click the link! | 01:50 |
| dbmoodb | oh noes cond | 01:50 |
| godzirra | i had to uninstall libdecoration0 too. | 01:50 |
| godzirra | since it was gone, but apt didn't know that. | 01:50 |
| dbmoodb | you will have to use something other then dpkg | 01:50 |
| godzirra | err, uninstall then reinstall. | 01:50 |
| RenatoSilva | poningru: the ping archive.ubuntu.com...well...it pings! | 01:50 |

| poningru | RenatoSilva: yes | 01:51 |
| poningru | sinthetek: what does netstat -ta say? | 01:51 |
| poningru | sinthetek: can you do an ssh -vv and then try to do a connection out? | 01:51 |
| sinthetek | poningru: but based on response time of my site, and where the script seems to lag, it looks like mysqld connections are affected as well | 01:51 |
| RenatoSilva | poningru: did you CLICKED the link? | 01:51 |

| RenatoSilva | poningru: I'd say the Packages.gz is not zipped, right? | 01:52 |
| godzirra | how do I find out what though? as far as I can tell there's no logging emerald does. | 01:52 |

| ubotu | el_cubano: 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 | 01:56 |

| jengc0il | hi verb3k_ | 02:08 |
| Stormx2 | vidsan: Chances are you'll never need to compile a custom kernel. I consider myself an advanced user and I've never needed to. | 02:08 |
| Old_Gregg | Stormx2: Rumor has it Blizzard detects Wine as a 3rd party extension and there is a potential for getting your account banned. For whatever reason, CrossOver does not. | 02:08 |
| romistrub | poningru: Yeah, I did that... but...there weren't many options :P | 02:08 |

| Malachi | romistrub: Then search for compizconfig-settings-manager and install it. | 02:09 |

| Dr_willis | actually it dies.. then gdm gets restarted since its a service. | 02:11 |
| poningru | Aztec007: yeah do a lspci | 02:11 |
| poningru | in the terminal | 02:11 |
| Dr_willis | vidsan, to get the gdm theme to change after setting it with some tool you MUST restart the gdm service. | 02:11 |
| poningru | Aztec007: go to applications->accessories->terminal | 02:11 |
| poningru | and do a lspci | 02:11 |

| Eroick | This is wierd, I did a dist-upgrade from a Wubi install without realizing the problem with it. It resulted in an error that looked like "PCI: Cannot allocate resource region ..." once it got past grub. So I cut my losses and uninstalled Wubi and went to install ubuntu for real. I tried to use Unetbootin but when it got past grub, I got the same "PCI: Cannot allocate resource region" error...... | 02:16 |
| Eroick | ...What does this error mean? Im worried that I will install ubuntu and the error will persist. | 02:17 |

| Aztec007 | Malachi; dont worry about, you're being more than helpful :) | 02:17 |
| Malachi | brooksbp: That depends on two things: Your router (completely independent of the operating system) and the firewall (Ubuntu can solve this problem.) | 02:18 |
| brooksbp | Malachi: how do I make it open... I can't even telnet to my server... even though it's on a static ip address | 02:18 |
| Aztec007 | Malachi: it said NO | 02:18 |
| Eroick | It seems that most people that have this problem still have their computer boot. Mine freezes at that error. | 02:18 |

| Malachi | brooksbp: What ports need opening? | 02:21 |
| brooksbp | Stormx2: How can I open up a port then... it looks like even though I have a socket listening it wont read anything cause the port isn't publicly accessable | 02:21 |
| Stormx2 | Old_Gregg: gnome-control-center | 02:21 |

| Old_Gregg | stormx2: No go on that. "command not found" | 02:23 |
| Aztec007 | Malachi: here's what happened, the other night I did a whole bunch of updates from synaptic not really knowing what I was doing. *Blush* | 02:23 |
| Peddy | mmmmkay sorry | 02:23 |
| Stormx2 | Old_Gregg: sudo apt-get install gnome-command-center then. | 02:23 |

| fwaokda | is there a setting in Gusty to disable my mouse touchpad while typing to avoid the touchpad picking up in another location while im typing? | 02:23 |
| Stormx2 | jengc0il: Weird. You might have fouled up su somehow. Perhaps... reboot? | 02:24 |
| Ttech | fwaokda, probbably but it won't not be working without a restart | 02:24 |
| Stormx2 | Can't believe I'm suggesting it, bleh. | 02:24 |

| Old_Gregg | stormx2: It says I already have it installed and that it's current | 02:25 |
| Ttech | Anyone? | 02:25 |
| Stormx2 | Old_Gregg: What does dpkg -L gnome-control-center | grep bin say? | 02:26 |
| Eroick | This seems to be a problem with Acer computers like mine... The error is specific to the 386 revision of the kernel | 02:26 |

| Eroick | any ways around that while installing gutsy? | 02:26 |
| Aztec007 | Malachi: ok | 02:26 |
| Old_Gregg | a lot of stuff | 02:26 |
| Malachi | Aztec007: Hit the driver tab. | 02:26 |
| Nyax | Hey, half the time when I restart my computer instead of actually loading the OS, I get a screen full of short, horizontal lines. | 02:26 |

| Nyax | Is restarting with the Ubuntu CD in the drive a bad thing? | 02:27 |
| geonerd | Stormx2: thx, i don't know what DRM means lol...was going to use Rhythmbox or banshee. but do i have to do anything to the .m4p files so that they will play? | 02:28 |
| Old_Gregg | stormx2: Not sure exactly. I went to gnome-sound-properties but I'm not sure that's the right place | 02:28 |

| Aztec007 | Malachi: I already tested one driver and it failed | 02:29 |
| Nyax | Hrm. | 02:29 |
| RenatoSilva | verb__: changing software channels | 02:29 |
| Nyax | Because I've installed Ubuntu three times now and every time it's died within 24 hours. | 02:29 |
| eth01 | if it *does*, then you'd probably be best keepin' it out the drive, or telling the bios otherwise.. | 02:29 |
| eth01 | nyax, run a memtest? | 02:29 |
| Stormx2 | geonerd: Unfortunately apple's iTunes uses something called DRM. It's a technology mandated by overzealous wealthy and technologically-impared label chairs. It means that those files are tied down specifically to your copy of iTunes, and your iPod if you have one. | 02:29 |
| eth01 | !tell Nyax about memtest | 02:30 |

| ubotu | romistrub: The Flash plugin installation is currently broken. This is due to Adobe changing the tar file that the package downloads. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=636397 if you need to fix this immediately, but it's recommended to wait for an official fix. | 03:08 |

| macabro22 | ok, thanks | 03:09 |
| Ttech | LOL No probolem. Anyoen? | 03:09 |
| Pelo | Ttech, I think what you want is the network manager , in the top pannel, but I'm probabaly wrong | 03:09 |
| Ttech | Pelo: heh yeah, no the light is on my laptop. But it does not work now. Winowos it did. But now it does not. | 03:10 |
| Pelo | Ttech, much better info in this one, | 03:10 |
| romistrub | so Malachi, what's the ETA on a fix for that? :P | 03:10 |
| robdig | macabro22: maybe sudo lshw -C disk | 03:10 |
| bulmer | Ttech-> does it have an on/off switch? look around your laptop, sometimes they are obscured | 03:11 |
| Malachi | romistrub: No idea. If you need flash now, there's a package you can download: http://ubuntuforums.org/attachment.php?attachmentid=53648&stc=1&d=1198033466 | 03:11 |
| Pelo | Ttech, so what you want is for the wifi indicator light on your laptop to turn on and off, , this is probably driver related, if the driver does not support it , it is unlikely you will get it to work with an extra scritp of something similar | 03:11 |

| dragonforce99 | I am using 7.1 | 03:11 |
| Ttech | bulmer, No, the light shows if hte wifi is on because the FN+f2 disabled or enabled Wifi, but the netowrk software with ubuntu does not show me anything. It still thinks wifi is enabled. So I need the light because I can't find out a think. | 03:12 |
| Old_Gregg | I basically want to format the computer and completely remove ubuntu. | 03:12 |
| Pelo | Zephyr, we are not very found of installer scripts here, so my guess is you might want to proceed | 03:12 |
| macabro22 | robdig: nope.. it isn't listed ={ | 03:12 |
| Ttech | Pelo, I tried installing the widows drivers but no effect. Or maybe I did it wrong. | 03:12 |

| dragonforce99 | Old_Gregg: use another OS to do that | 03:12 |
| thor | Old_Gregg are you going to reinstall windows or just format the partition that linux is using? | 03:12 |

| ChuckFu | E: Unable to lock the download directory | 03:12 |
| Old_Gregg | reinstall windows. | 03:12 |
| dragonforce99 | Just reinstall windows Old_gregg | 03:13 |
| thor | Old_Gregg then when you start th einstall just tell windows to use the entire drive... | 03:13 |
| Ttech | Old_Gregg: format? | 03:13 |
| Pelo | Ttech, ndiswrapper is a bandaid solution, not all options of the driver will work, your best bet would be to search in th forum www.ubuntuforums.org | 03:13 |
| Ttech | and reinstall. | 03:13 |
| Stormx2 | Old_Gregg: How many hard drives do you have? | 03:13 |
| romistrub | Old_Gregg: you can format from the windows installer, no? | 03:13 |
| robdig | macabro22: too bad, probably means it doesn't know its a disk...have you looked through dmesg or syslog (/var/log/syslog)? | 03:13 |
| furthur | why go back to windows?? | 03:13 |
| Old_Gregg | romistrub: Not sure. | 03:13 |
| Ttech | Pelo: I did try that I used a tutorial, but it did not help. | 03:13 |
| Omlette | romistrub: yes, you can. | 03:13 |
| bulmer | Ttech-> what are you trying to do? activate your wifi? | 03:13 |
| Stormx2 | The windows installer can and will blindly remove your ubuntu partitions ;D | 03:13 |
| Old_Gregg | Stormx2: just one. | 03:13 |
| macabro22 | rodbig nope. What should I look for? | 03:14 |
| romistrub | Old_Gregg: Boot from the windows CD | 03:14 |
| Ttech | bulmer: No but if I hit those keys and the wifi is on , I do not know if the Wifi is on Or off the netowrk icon jus stays the same | 03:14 |
| Old_Gregg | stormx2: I tried to run it from ubuntu, but it gave me an error. | 03:14 |
| tony_math | ChuckFu: Do you have another synaptic window open? | 03:14 |
| robdig | furthur: to raise stress and frustration levels? | 03:14 |
| Old_Gregg | romistrub: That's what I thought | 03:14 |
| furthur | lol | 03:14 |
| Stormx2 | Old_Gregg, run it from ubuntu? Eh? you need to boot the cd. | 03:14 |
| Old_Gregg | stormx2: Yea, that's what I thought | 03:14 |
| Belkinze1 | Stormx2: no success =/ | 03:14 |
| robdig | macabro22: look for any errors related to firewire or your external drive | 03:15 |
| Belkinze1 | Stormx2: Can't do mount -a | 03:15 |
| Stormx2 | Belkinze1, I'm completely out of ideas. | 03:15 |
| timandtom | When I use uTorrent, it makes my internet INSANELY slow(Yet, getting the same speeds/same number of connections on a Windows box affects me less). Any reason why that could be? Would changing what port I use fix it?(What port should I change it too then) | 03:15 |
| macabro22 | robdig: let me pastebin for you... nothing seems wrong | 03:15 |
| romistrub | Old_Gregg: You going to XP or Vista? | 03:15 |
| Old_Gregg | xp | 03:15 |

| romistrub | okay good :P | 03:15 |
| ChuckFu | tony_math no | 03:15 |
| Pelo | timandtom, just lower your upload speed by 10 k | 03:15 |

| robdig | macabro22: looking | 03:16 |
| Omlette | romistrub: I've been using Ubuntu since april, and I still do that. :) | 03:16 |
| Ttech | Olg_Gregg: Wine, and Wow, works out of the box. | 03:16 |
| romistrub | Old_Gregg: I find that it's good to have that XP backup in case I need to do something mission critical, and I don't have the patience to get it working yet... it's a learning process :) | 03:16 |
| furthur | I dual boot but gonna clean install gutsy and scrap windows altogether... I havent used xp in ages | 03:16 |
| Belkinze1 | Stormx2: Nope, but i think we can narrow it done to a fstab problem =/ | 03:16 |
| Old_Gregg | Thanks for all the help guys. Good luck. | 03:17 |
| furthur | you can alwyas emulate windows.. | 03:17 |
| romistrub | furthur: I will do that, too, once I get the hang of it | 03:17 |
| Pelo | timandtom, a small amount of upstream is required for overhead , if you have your upload speed set to high or even to unlimited, your computer cannot effectively communicate with your isp and other server and it slows down everything else | 03:17 |
| macabro22 | robdig: actually there ARE errors related to iee1394 | 03:17 |
| Stormx2 | Belkinze1, your fstab line is identical to mine | 03:17 |

| dragonforce99 | what is the command to list all processes? | 03:18 |
| Ttech | So should I just give up? | 03:18 |

| romistrub | I'm assuming most people here have experience with compiz... I think they should add "effects themes" for increase productivity and what not. | 03:19 |
| timandtom | Pelo: Ah, makes sense. But my internet can handle more then what I'm using, and my Windows box runs torrents the same, yet loads pages in the browser faster | 03:19 |

| robdig | macabro22: looking | 03:21 |
| Carzand | Alright, here goes | 03:21 |
| Pelo | Belkinze1, it helps if you restarte your problem periodicaly, and at different times on different days, different crowds | 03:21 |
| timandtom | Pelo:Yeh, I get torrents working great on my Windows box. The thing is, I have a torrent using X amount of bandwidth on my Windows box, and my browsers load pages FAST. But on Linux, my torrents use the SAME amount of bandwidth, but my pages load HELLA slow | 03:21 |
| Stormx2 | Belkinze1, the fact that ubuntu a) didn't pick up on windows being installed and b) didn't add it to fstab automatically shows that there is some problem with the partition or the partition table. | 03:21 |
| macabro22 | robdig: thanks. Ah, the HD works alright when plugged via an USB cord | 03:21 |

| windsor510 | timandtom: I have a situation where I'm using ndiswrapper instead of native drivers for my wireless card under linux (because they don't exist), and I notice a performance decrease in download / upload speed in linux. | 03:23 |
| kromagnon | can anyone recommend a compatible webcam to use with ubuntu? | 03:23 |
| Stormx2 | !webcam | kromagnon | 03:23 |
| ubotu | kromagnon: Instructions for using webcams with Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Webcam - Supported cams: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsMultimediaWebCameras | 03:23 |
| Malachi | timandtom: What app? | 03:23 |
| xoqa | not seeing another version | 03:23 |
| cvd | Why everytime i logon in ubuntu i dont have internet conection until i write in the terminal sudo ifdown eth0 && sudo ifup eth0? | 03:23 |
| timandtom | Malachi: uTorrent, running in wine | 03:23 |
| Malachi | timandtom: Hm.... | 03:24 |
| RandyboY | Stormx2, then its my brand new computer ubuntu doesnt like? Cause its the same card(picked it out of the xubuntu machine) | 03:24 |
| furthur | timandtom : try deluge ;) | 03:24 |
| timandtom | windsor510: AH! That MIGHT be it, that makes sense, although I think these are official drivers for my wireless. How would I check? | 03:24 |
| timandtom | furthur: Whuzzat and why? | 03:24 |
| Pelo | timandtom, I'M running ut in ubuntu , and I have no problems, I actualy found I could get a higher upspead in ubuntu then on windows if you can beleive it, try and use one of the default setting sfrom the speed guide settings manager in the options menu, in ut, see if that works better for you, also , don'T forget to enable encryption | 03:24 |
| RandyboY | Malachi, yes i have. And there are no errors. And i have turned all options up a bit. | 03:24 |
| Stormx2 | RandyboY, could be a motherboard issue I suppose | 03:24 |
| kromagnon | Stormx2: and ubotu: thanks! | 03:24 |
| Malachi | Randyboy: Is it set on Alsa? Or your soundcard? | 03:24 |
| Stormx2 | I can't help, I'm going to sleep | 03:25 |
| pacman2 | If I have the sound driver I need in /lib/modules/2.6.22-14-generic/kernel/oss/via8233.ko and my sound isnt working | 03:25 |
| pacman2 | what do I need to do? | 03:25 |
| Stormx2 | !thanks | kromagnon | 03:25 |
| ubotu | kromagnon: You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-) | 03:25 |
| RoDoX | hi folks...once again i'm here to ask for some help. this time, its the neogeo/SNES emulator that doesnt work. can anybody help me? | 03:25 |
| cvd | ? | 03:25 |
| windsor510 | timandtom: not quite sure, I only found out after my wireless wasn't working and I found lots of posts documenting it. | 03:25 |
| |ns|nR8 | RandyboY, do yo have a volume control ? | 03:25 |
| RandyboY | |ns|nR8, not on the card itself, no | 03:25 |
| |ns|nR8 | on the taskbar at top ? | 03:25 |
| windsor510 | timandtom: try "dmesg | more" to see what the systems reports on bootup. | 03:25 |
| RandyboY | Malachi, seems to be a generic driver | 03:25 |
| robdig | macabro22: don't see anything that jumps out...perhaps someone here knows more about firewire and can assist | 03:26 |
| RandyboY | |ns|nR8, yes. And ive turned it up to 50% | 03:26 |
| Pelo | later folks | 03:26 |
| anonymousxxx | irc://irc.abjects.net/045 | 03:26 |
| windsor510 | cya | 03:26 |
| |ns|nR8 | RandyboY, i have one of those cards, this may sound weird but i had to change what plug i plugged the line out into | 03:26 |
| |ns|nR8 | windows uses one line out on me sound card and ubuntu uses another | 03:26 |
| wh0anur | hiiiiiiiiiii | 03:26 |
| timandtom | windsor510: Um... what does "dmesg | more" mean, and how do I do it? New to linux, haha | 03:26 |
| RandyboY | |ns|nR8, ive tried all the holes :-) | 03:27 |
| macabro22 | robdig: thanks man... I will research some more | 03:27 |
| RoDoX | someone... | 03:27 |
| robdig | macabro22: sorry couldn't help resolve it | 03:27 |
| cvd | dont know? | 03:27 |
| macabro22 | robdig: no problem man. I will find it sooner or later | 03:27 |
| windsor510 | timandtom: you'll have to have access to a terminal, aka a shell. "dmesg | more" is a command you'll have to type in to the terminal (it's like a DOS window, in windows). | 03:30 |
| windsor510 | timandtom: you should see the terminal application somewhere in ubuntu's 'start menu'. | 03:30 |
| TheEagle | is it possible to eject the cd rom drive of a pc with just their ip address? | 03:30 |
| timandtom | windsor510: What do I look for after i type that? | 03:31 |

| kromagnon | has anyone used the "Logitech Quickcam Chat" successfully with Ubuntu 7.04? | 03:31 |
| mortal1 | hello all | 03:31 |
| ohsnap | hi :] | 03:32 |
| kromagnon | hello | 03:32 |
| mortal1 | anyone here know what would cause a cpu fan to run constantly, even when the pc is switched completely off? | 03:32 |
| mortal1 | I think it's either the mb or the power supply | 03:33 |
| timandtom | mortal1: Plugged in wrong, or not actually off? | 03:33 |
| Cpudan80 | mortal1: Something is feeding it power 24x7 | 03:33 |
| |ns|nR8 | sounds like its going into standby and not switching off | 03:33 |
| Cpudan80 | Are you sure it is plugged in the correct way? | 03:33 |
| windsor510 | timandtom: if you're new to linux, you will probably not be able to glean too much information from the output, but basically you will see a list of all the hardware being detected, and usually your network interfaces will be given names like 'eth0' 'wlan0'. Keep an eye out for that. | 03:33 |
| robdig | mortal1: or bad temperature sensor | 03:33 |
| timandtom | windsor510: Ah, well, theres nothing like that in here | 03:34 |
| mortal1 | well, this just started happening on a 10 year old computer | 03:34 |
| mortal1 | that I haven't messed with hardware wise in quite a while | 03:34 |
| timandtom | windsor510:Scratch that, theres a more button, haha, sorry | 03:34 |
| windsor510 | timandtom: I'd try to figure out what kind of network interface you have (get your PC's specs, or open it up and look), and then reference the hardware's chipset against some of the 'known supported' lists that are available online. | 03:34 |
| kromagnon | possible bad mem | 03:34 |
| windsor510 | timandtom: oh, yeah hit the space bar to scroll down =) | 03:35 |
| kromagnon | has anyone used the "Logitech Quickcam Chat" webcam successfully with Ubuntu 7.04? | 03:35 |
| sam_ | how do i install flash player for linux? | 03:37 |
| timandtom | windsor510: 6.636000] eth0: Broadcom 4400 10/100BaseT Ethernet 00:15:60:c6:89:70 <<<Would that be what I'm looking for? | 03:37 |

| sam_ | im on adobe flash player site | 03:37 |
| suweid | heh, seems like every other question is about flash | 03:37 |
| sam_ | just copy paste the answer | 03:37 |
| windsor510 | timandtom: sounds like it. looks like a hard wired connection (not wireless). | 03:37 |
| Jack_Sparrow | suweid: just trigger the bot | 03:38 |
| timandtom | windsor510: Ah, ok, ill keep looking | 03:38 |
| marcioapf | i have a mp3-player but i just can't write to it: every time it mounts as read-only! I found some stuff about this at http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-hardware-18/usb-flash-drive-pen-drive-mounts-read-only-508524/, but the solution requires me to format it. Can anybody help me with that? | 03:38 |
| Jack_Sparrow | marcioapf: What format does the player show up as? | 03:38 |
| windsor510 | timandtom: are you trying to use a wireless adapter? | 03:38 |
| |ns|nR8 | marcioapf, given the correct mount command it will let you write aswell | 03:39 |
| timandtom | windsor510: Yup | 03:39 |
| xoqa | grr | 03:39 |
| xoqa | can someone help me? | 03:39 |
| marcioapf | Jack_Sparrow, what do you mean? | 03:39 |
| Jack_Sparrow | marcioapf: SOme of the ipods have been a problem, but the generics work fine | 03:39 |
| xoqa | ~$ sudo aticonfig --initial | 03:39 |
| xoqa | Warning: Could not find configuration file | 03:39 |

| timandtom | windsor510: Found it, 15.260000] ipw3945: Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 3945 Network Connection driver for Linux, 1.2.2mp.ubuntu1 | 03:40 |
| marcioapf | Jack_Sparrow, ok, it's not an ipod | 03:40 |
| xoqa | blender freezes my computer when starting | 03:40 |
| Jack_Sparrow | marcioapf: THe plaer should show up as a generic drive? | 03:40 |
| Jack_Sparrow | xoqa: Please do not paste in the channel | 03:40 |
| xoqa | and i figure it's the graphics card since grid wars runs extremely on this computer. which it shouldn't because this is a 1.7+mhz processor and it ran fine once on another installation of ubuntu on this computer | 03:41 |
| windsor510 | timandtom: you might want to familiarize yourself with the 'ifconfig' command, it will list the interfaces that your system knows about. | 03:41 |
| EeeKay | I am in the hunt for music files. i dont want to use a bit torrent. and p2p seems to be coded for windows.. so any other suggestions? | 03:41 |
| sam_ | #ubuntu | 03:42 |
| Jack_Sparrow | marcioapf: If you type fdisk -l in a terminal with the player plugged in does it show up | 03:42 |
| marcioapf | Jack_Sparrow, it shows as "Audio Player Music Player" | 03:42 |
| sundar | my ktorrent gets firewalled..i have enabled UPnP plugin but no port forwarding happens...downloads are crawling..any way of resolving the issue? | 03:42 |
| sam_ | sadfasdfa | 03:42 |
| windsor510 | timandtom: and iwconfig also, that will give extra information about wireless adapters. but if you know the chipset now, you should check out articles and see if people are having issues with that particular chipset. | 03:42 |
| Jack_Sparrow | marcioapf: Does gparted see it as well | 03:42 |
| |ns|nR8 | sundar, manually set port forwarding | 03:42 |
| timandtom | windsor510: Ok, thanks | 03:42 |

| Ttech | Ok, Ihave another question. :P How do I make the Menu Icon (not the menu bar one) larger more like the windows start menu? | 03:42 |
| TheEagle | can you eject someone's cd tray remotely? | 03:42 |
| Jack_Sparrow | marcioapf: you couls also post your fstab to the pastebin for reference | 03:43 |
| TheEagle | with a python scritp | 03:43 |
| EeeKay | i never said i wouldnt pay for it | 03:43 |
| Ttech | TheEagle, yeah | 03:43 |
| marcioapf | Jack_Sparrow, shows as /dev/sdb1 | 03:43 |
| sundar | how do i do it manually??? | 03:43 |
| windsor510 | timandtom: good luck! | 03:43 |
| Ttech | TheEagle, using windows. :P | 03:43 |
| TheEagle | remotely? | 03:43 |
| marcioapf | Jack_Sparrow, on fdisk -l | 03:43 |
| sundar | i did rescan...no devices were found | 03:43 |
| Ttech | TheEagle, yeah | 03:43 |
| |ns|nR8 | connect to your router sundar, what is your machine's LAN ip ? | 03:43 |
| marcioapf | Jack_Sparrow, whats gparted? | 03:43 |
| TheEagle | without the other person knowing your going to do it? | 03:43 |
| jeff__ | evening. upgraded to ubuntu Gutsy Gibbon, now stuck with two printing systems, two printers entry in system menu. which to uninstall? | 03:44 |
| timandtom | windsor510: :D Thanks! Btw, it's normal to have some error'd and dropped packets, right? | 03:44 |
| TheEagle | like my sister - if i wanted to randomly eject her cd tray? | 03:44 |
| Jack_Sparrow | marcioapf: What system is shown for the partitions on it | 03:44 |
| windsor510 | timandtom: on wireless, yea depending on the link quality | 03:44 |
| sundar | nR8 - I dont get you.. | 03:44 |
| marcioapf | Jack_Sparrow, sorry, i also dunno what is fstab | 03:44 |
| Dregz | anyone have experience with the closed x-fi drivers | 03:44 |
| Ttech | TheEagle, No, there cd tray would open. But I'm not one to give people hacks. As I don't like hacking. You plant it on someone computer and run it. :P | 03:44 |
| timandtom | windsor510: 85%, about 110k good packets, 4k bad | 03:44 |
| |ns|nR8 | sundar, in your browser put iin http://192.168.1.1 | 03:44 |
| |ns|nR8 | anything happen | 03:44 |
| |ns|nR8 | ? | 03:44 |
| Jack_Sparrow | marcioapf: Does fdisk show anything for the system typw | 03:44 |
| Jack_Sparrow | e | 03:45 |
| === Co-RaGiL_JoMbl0 is now known as refa_imoet | ||
| windsor510 | timandtom: nobody's perfect =) | 03:45 |
| timandtom | windsor510: Haha, ok, thanks, just wondering if that was insanely high or anything | 03:45 |
| TheEagle | Ttech - so your not going to tell me how to do it? | 03:45 |
| hayden | I have ubuntu 7.10 server installed atm, is there a way to install a bare-bones gui (without openoffice, games etc) ? | 03:45 |
| timandtom | TheEagle: I haven't been paying attention to what you've really been asking... But are you trying one of those things where the CD autoruns a program that ejects the CD? | 03:46 |
| TheEagle | hayden - you can install a gui and then uninstall the openoffice and games | 03:46 |
| TheEagle | timandtom | 03:46 |
| refa_imoet | server irc | 03:46 |
| TheEagle | i dont think so | 03:46 |
| timandtom | TheEagle: Ah, k, my mistake. I see a lot of people around the internet who try that | 03:47 |
| TheEagle | i want to be able to sit at my computer here - and type some code or press a few buttons and for my sisters cd drive to eject | 03:47 |
| hayden | TheEagle: ok thanks | 03:47 |
| sundar | nR8 - got the router page..it says the local ip as 192.168.1.1 (thats router's i think) and starting ip on my dhcp server is 192.168.1.100 | 03:47 |
| Old_Gregg | I'm back. | 03:47 |
| windsor510 | timandtom: you could always experiment with it (move the machine around), or read articles online - I'm no expert in that, but I'd say it's acceptable. | 03:47 |
| broken | Have a question, I got a few video clips on a ftp server for quick access, i am on my gentoo laptop and I was wondering is it possible to stream the video? Whenever i go to download it says (no video) and the stream doesn't start, I don't want to download to the laptop i'd prefer just to watch it stream, is this possible? | 03:47 |
| TheEagle | hayden - do you knwo how to do it? | 03:47 |
| Old_Gregg | Anyone know if there is a terminal command to copy files to a CD? | 03:47 |
| elkbuntu | TheEagle, please stop asking how to do exploits | 03:47 |
| jeff__ | broken> ftp does not stream. http would be a proper transport for streaming. | 03:47 |
| |ns|nR8 | ok sundar login to the router, default username and password is prolly admin admin | 03:47 |
| hayden | TheEagle: Is there meta-packages for openoffice and games? | 03:48 |
| sam_ | how do i know if i have a 32bit or 64 bit ubuntu? | 03:48 |
| broken | jeff__, hmm.. that sucks. | 03:48 |
| kalpik | sam_, uname -a | 03:48 |
| marcioapf | Jack_Sparrow, that is what i got from fdisk: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49375/ | 03:48 |
| |ns|nR8 | find port forwarding, look in your bittorent clinet, see what ports it uses and forward those ports to your machines LAN i | 03:48 |
| |ns|nR8 | ip | 03:48 |
| IndyGunFreak | sam_: lol, well what iso did you download? | 03:48 |
| broken | jeff__, is ftp also slow? | 03:48 |
| jeff__ | broken> let me rephrase that> ftp is not a proper transport for multimedia streaming. it's a file transfer protocol. | 03:48 |
| TheEagle | im not sure - what id du is: run "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop" | 03:48 |
| timandtom | windsor510: Ok, thanks for the help =] | 03:48 |
| sam_ | um dont remember | 03:48 |
| TheEagle | thts a gnome | 03:48 |
| sam_ | ill do what kalpik said though | 03:48 |
| TheEagle | if u want kde use kubuntu-desktop instead | 03:48 |
| TheEagle | and let it install | 03:48 |
| jeff__ | broken> it is not the fastest transfer protocol indeed. http is much better at fast streaming. | 03:48 |
| Old_Gregg | Is there a command in terminal to write files to a blank CD? | 03:48 |
| sundar | nR8 - i'll try it..and let you know | 03:48 |
| |ns|nR8 | sundar, you might find an option in there to enable upnp | 03:49 |
| TheEagle | then use the package manager in the gui to uninstall office and the games | 03:49 |
| |ns|nR8 | that might help also | 03:49 |
| broken | jeff__, alright thanks. I guess I'll have to set up a small server on it. | 03:49 |
| robdig | Old_Gregg: cdrecord? | 03:49 |
| TheEagle | hayden: did you get all that? | 03:49 |
| jeff__ | broken> that should help :) | 03:49 |
| Jack_Sparrow | marcioapf: It is a one gig plaer with a fat16 partition... | 03:49 |
| marcioapf | Jack_Sparrow, ok. | 03:49 |
| hayden | TheEagle: Yep, I already knew that. Was wondering if they had implemented a better server gui since I last used it. | 03:49 |
| TheEagle | i don't think so | 03:50 |
| Old_Gregg | robdig: anything else on that command? Like cdrecord filename ? | 03:50 |
| qwerty121 | hi all! can someone tell me how to compile C programs in Ubuntu? | 03:50 |
| jeff__ | old_gregg> it's a little more complicated. you'll have to make your iso image first and then burn it. | 03:50 |
| robdig | Old_Gregg: it has a bunch of options, and it's been a while since i used it... | 03:50 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !compilers | 03:51 |
| jeff__ | qwerty121> you'll need to install gcc for that. | 03:51 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about compilers - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 03:51 |
| |ns|nR8 | qwerty121, install a compiler like gcc | 03:51 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !compile | 03:51 |
| ubotu | Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first) | 03:51 |
| robdig | qwerty121: install build-essential | 03:51 |
| qwerty121 | jeff__ and |ns|nr8, it is installed | 03:51 |
| jeff__ | old_gregg> Guis are a much better option, or else you'll have to do some reading. | 03:51 |
| sam_ | i'm still not sure if i have 32bit or 64 bit, i didnt check when i installed with cd | 03:51 |
| |ns|nR8 | whats the prob then | 03:51 |
| Old_Gregg | jeff_: Okay, so I have a folder on my desktop. Inside of which are 6 files, and a folder with 5200 other files in it. I want to put the folder from my desktop onto the CD sans the folder (like, the CD itself is the folder on my desktop). I have tried with the gui, but it locks up | 03:51 |
| jeff__ | qwery121> then gcc filename.cpp should do. | 03:51 |
| jeff__ | old_gregg> which gui app was it you tried? | 03:52 |
| kalpik | sam_, what output did uname -a give? | 03:52 |
| Jack_Sparrow | marcioapf: gksudo gedit /etc/fstab | 03:52 |
| sam_ | um | 03:52 |
| qwerty121 | jeff__, but where are the conio.h and stdio.h files? | 03:52 |
| Old_Gregg | jeff_: the CD/DVD writer with Gnome. | 03:52 |
| nickrud | Old_Gregg, take a look at the cdw package, it's used on in a console | 03:52 |
| Dregz | so, no creative x-fi guys in here? | 03:52 |
| sam_ | linux sam-laptop 2.6.22-14-generic | 03:52 |

| MrPiracy | can anyone help me with AWN and intel video card? all help i find on the internet talks about nvidia ... | 03:52 |
| kalpik | sam_, the complete output.. | 03:53 |
| marcioapf | Jack_Sparrow, want me to pastebin? | 03:53 |
| Old_Gregg | Nautilus | 03:53 |
| Jack_Sparrow | YEs please | 03:53 |
| nickrud | Old_Gregg, what part? | 03:53 |
| Old_Gregg | jeff_: Nautilus is what I'm using. | 03:53 |
| inaety | hello, for some reason amaroK started saying that my sound device is busy and there are xine parameters. how can i fix this without rebooting | 03:53 |
| kalpik | sam_, in the end does it say i686 or x86_64? | 03:53 |
| sam_ | linux sam-laptop 2.6.22-14-generic #1 SMPdeb http://blognux.free.fr/debian unstable main | 03:53 |
| marcioapf | Jack_Sparrow, here it is: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49376/ | 03:53 |
| sam_ | oh wait | 03:53 |
| Old_Gregg | nickrud: Kind of all of it. I know what a package is, but do I need to install something else? | 03:53 |
| jeff__ | old_gregg> you might want to install GnomeBaker and give that a try, in case it's a software issue. | 03:53 |
| sam_ | Linux sam-laptop 2.6.22-14-generic #1 SMP Tue Dec 18 08:02:57 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux | 03:53 |
| sam_ | there it is | 03:54 |
| kalpik | sam_, its 32 bit :) | 03:54 |
| Old_Gregg | jeff_: Can I just do sudo apt-get install GnomeBaker? | 03:54 |
| sam_ | forgot i could copy paste | 03:54 |
| sam_ | ok so that means it should be able to play flash.. | 03:54 |
| kalpik | sam_, i686 is 32 bit and x86_64 is 64 bit | 03:54 |
| jeff__ | old_gregg> that ought to do it. if not, then Synaptic Package Manager might help. | 03:54 |
| kalpik | sam_, flash works in 64 bit too :) | 03:54 |
| sam_ | oh but its easier with 32 | 03:54 |
| Old_Gregg | jeff_: Got it. Is it ran from a terminal? | 03:54 |
| kalpik | sam_, true | 03:55 |
| sam_ | i have a hp pavilion laptop with dualcore processor 2gb ram | 03:55 |
| jeff__ | old_gregg> synaptic and GnomeBaker are both gui apps, so you'll find them in the gnome menus. | 03:55 |

| Old_Gregg | jeff_: The disk already has an AUTORUN.INF on it | 03:57 |
| marcioapf | Jack_Sparrow, found it | 03:57 |
| kalpik | sam_, lol.. what do you wanna know? | 03:57 |
| thor | The_Doctor2 again...depends. There are at least three different window managers for ubuntu, and each will use different software | 03:58 |
| zeeo2 | hey guys how can i edit vino settings from ssh im trying to setup vnc access from ssh | 03:58 |
| sam_ | oh well..theres alot i need to know but first: how can I get sound to work? | 03:58 |
| kalpik | sam_, just install ubuntu-restricted-extras from synaptic | 03:58 |
| sam_ | oh yea did that | 03:58 |
| reportingsjr | Does anyone know how to reinstall the codecs for all videos? | 03:58 |
| Jack_Sparrow | sam_: That link just says to put the name in your text of the person you are talking to to avoid confusion in a busy channel | 03:58 |
| sam_ | someone told me that before | 03:58 |
| kalpik | sam_, which soundcard do you have? | 03:58 |
| jeff__ | old_gregg> autorun.inf will not cause a disc to load on boot. loading on boot requires a different disc image (i believe it is an option in gnomebaker somewhere though) such discs are known as El-Torito discs. | 03:58 |
| sam_ | kalpik_, not sure how do i find out? | 03:58 |
| Jack_Sparrow | thank you | 03:58 |
| qwerty121 | how can i access stdio.h and conio.h files with gcc? | 03:59 |
| jeff__ | old_gregg> look for an option like "bootable disc" in gnomebaker | 03:59 |
| marcioapf | Jack_Sparrow, but it doesn't have many options... the only thing, on multimedia, is to choose wheter to play automatically or not. | 03:59 |
| marcioapf | Jack_Sparrow, what exactly should i look for? | 03:59 |
| sam_ | <kalpik> how do i find out which soundcard i have? | 03:59 |
| kalpik | sam_, lspci | grep audio | 03:59 |
| jeff__ | qwert121> those are standard files, the path to which has to be set with the -I switch to gcc. | 03:59 |
| The_Doctor2 | thor: Ubuntu Ubuntu, the one that uses GNOME. :P What ever coems with it by default. Gnome-Screenshot I belvee | 03:59 |
| sam_ | <kalpik> ok | 03:59 |
| kalpik | sam_, paste it at pastebin.com and give link here | 03:59 |
| sundar | nR8 - Thanks!! port forwarding on the router helped :) I see uploading and downloading happening at a good speed..seeding does not seem to be happening!! not sure why...probably ktorrent setting | 04:00 |
| Jack_Sparrow | marcioapf: Look at manually mounting it... | 04:00 |
| Old_Gregg | jeff_: there is an option for "Only Create Image" | 04:00 |
| robdig | qwerty121: should be in /usr/include. if not, install build-essential | 04:00 |
| qwerty121 | jeff__, can you gimme a link that describes it all? | 04:00 |
| sam_ | <kalpik> pastepin.com says /home/pastebin/public_html/../posts/ needs to be a writable dir to use file storage engine | 04:00 |
| jeff__ | old_gregg> that will actually take all your files, create what's called an "image" - that's the contents of the cdrom, sector by sector, and store that on disc. | 04:00 |
| qwerty121 | robdig, thanks. they are there. | 04:01 |
| jeff__ | old_gregg> you could use that option to prepare a disc to burn mutltiple times ahead of time and burn copies of that image repeatedly. so not quite what you need. :) | 04:01 |
| Old_Gregg | jeff_: and that does not make it bootable? | 04:01 |
| kalpik | sam_, how mane lines is it? | 04:01 |
| reportingsjr | How do I install video codecs? I don't know the name of them and somehow messed up the ones I have now | 04:01 |

| reportingsjr | Thank you | 04:02 |
| Jack_Sparrow | np | 04:02 |
| jeff__ | old_gregg> nope, making the disc bootable requires a special header at the beginning of the image. looking up your answer, hang on... | 04:02 |
| reportingsjr | Jack_Sparrow: Wait, what do I do with that? | 04:02 |
| sam_ | <kalpik> not sure it gave me this link: http://pastebin.ca/829424 | 04:02 |
| IndyGunFreak | UbunNoob: ok.. so i think this is probably gonna be an issue w/ your Ethernet device. | 04:02 |
| thor | The_Doctor2 this is a guess as I don't use gnome...right click on the gnome-screenshot applet and see if you get a config menu | 04:02 |
| Old_Gregg | jeff_: I'm looking it up too, thought not terribly successfully. | 04:02 |
| IndyGunFreak | UbunNoob: i really can't help you w/ that, as Google turns up nothing ont hat device. | 04:02 |
| Jack_Sparrow | reportingsjr: That is how you add the codecs that you wanted | 04:02 |
| UbunNoob | Anyone know how to manually configure an ethernet device | 04:03 |
| The_Doctor2 | thor, lol | 04:03 |
| tarzeau | UbunNoob: i know | 04:03 |
| kalpik | sam_, lol! run that command at the terminal, and paste the _output_ on pastebin.ca :P | 04:03 |
| UbunNoob | Indygunfreak: Thanks for your help | 04:03 |
| thor | UbunNoob change the lines in /etc/network/interfaces | 04:03 |
| IndyGunFreak | np | 04:03 |
| reportingsjr | Jack_Sparrow: Oh, ok. | 04:03 |
| UbunNoob | not quite sure how to do it | 04:03 |
| sam_ | <kalpik> running lspci | grep audio at the terminal didn't have any effect | 04:04 |
| thor | UbunNoob you can also do it from the command line using the ifconfig command | 04:04 |
| thor | UbunNoob open a terminal and type 'man ifconfig' for details | 04:04 |
| kalpik | sam_, hmm.. that means your card isnt being detected by the kernel | 04:04 |
| UbunNoob | I'm getting ready to open a terminal | 04:04 |

| sam_ | <kalpik> well I'm using a hp pavilion dv6000 laptop that was working just fine with vista | 04:05 |
| sam_ | <kalpik> i accidently erased vista with linux :( | 04:05 |
| alfermp | sam_, Good | 04:05 |
| kaje | I know it says it is still broken in the channel header, but has there been any breakthroughs on the Flash plugin for Gutsy? | 04:05 |
| reportingsjr | Jack_Sparrow: Umm, I think that's just for non-free formats. I somehow messed up the Ogg codecs :) | 04:05 |
| The_Doctor2 | thor, nope. that didn't work. :( | 04:05 |
| kalpik | sam_, i think that has the intel HD audio card.. which isnt supported well by gutsy.. you could try compiling a newer kernel | 04:05 |
| Jack_Sparrow | reportingsjr: You asked for video codecs... | 04:06 |
| IndyGunFreak | kalpik: mine works fine, you need to recompile alsa. | 04:06 |
| sam_ | <kalpik> how do i do that? | 04:06 |
| Ttech | Jack_Sparrow, LOL there the same thing. :P | 04:06 |
| Ttech | JK | 04:06 |
| jbmigel | sam_ it's lspci | grep Audio with a capital A | 04:06 |
| Dr_willis | There is a page for compiling the newer alsa modules also. | 04:06 |
| IndyGunFreak | !intelhda | sam_ | 04:06 |
| ubotu | sam_: For fixing your Intel HDA sound this page has useful information https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto | 04:06 |
| kalpik | jbmigel, small a also works :P | 04:06 |
| Old_Gregg | jeff_: Any luck? I can't find anything | 04:06 |
| kalpik | sam_, follow what IndyGunFreak said | 04:06 |
| jbmigel | kalpik not on my machine | 04:06 |
| reportingsjr | Jack_Sparrow: I asked how to reinstall the messed up ones I have now, but fair enough.. | 04:06 |
| sam_ | <kalpik> oh i got this: lspci | grep Audio | 04:06 |
| kalpik | jbmigel, hmm.. it works on mine! weird.. | 04:07 |
| sam_ | <kalpik> i mean: 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 03) | 04:07 |

| Jack_Sparrow | !lol > Ttech | 04:07 |
| sam_ | <indygunfreak> you fixed your problem i guess? | 04:07 |
| Ttech | Jack_Sparrow, heh. Although, I think you've gone a little bot happy. :P | 04:08 |
| tehm0nk | what is the command to get into the nvidia-settings? | 04:08 |
| IndyGunFreak | yes... hang on a sec. | 04:08 |
| thor | The_Doctor2 checking google...looks like gnome-screenshot should ask for a filename when you hit the button...you should be able to change the path there | 04:08 |
| kaje | Any word on when Flash is going to work in Gutsy? | 04:08 |
| The_Doctor2 | thor: It does, but it alwasy goes back to the deckopt | 04:08 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Ttech: After 50 or so hours of helping people each week, the fingers get a bit tired | 04:08 |
| kalpik | kaje, use the manual installer by adobe.. it works | 04:08 |
| reportingsjr | Jack_Sparrow: Any clue the name of Ogg codecs? | 04:08 |
| IndyGunFreak | sam_: what do you get when you put this in a terminal... cat /proc/asound/card0/codec#* | grep Codec | 04:08 |
| Jack_Sparrow | kaje: no idea yet, but if you must have it use the workaround | 04:08 |
| Ttech | Jack_Sparrow, heh. I do the programing, so I do a bit of both, techsupport and Programing, so I don't really get into the Ubuntu help because I don't have time. :P | 04:09 |
| thor | The_Doctor2 and now you know why I prefer xfce and gkrellmshoot <smile> | 04:09 |
| The_Doctor2 | thor, I suppose, but I can alwasy just install kscreenshot. OR something like that. And mess around iwth it. But i'd have to uninstall gnome screenshot | 04:09 |
| sam_ | <IndyGunFreak> I'm following the link you sent previously and right now the terminal is asking for a disk labeled ubuntu 7.10 gutsy gibbon | 04:10 |
| thor | The_Doctor2 not necessarily...they can all coexist on the same system | 04:10 |
| IndyGunFreak | sam_: hold on just a sec, put this in a terminal, and see what your output is... cat /proc/asound/card0/codec#* | grep Codec | 04:10 |
| Jack_Sparrow | reportingsjr: I need to eat dinner... But not knowing what all you did or didnt do, I would start with the restricted formats, which is why I linked them. | 04:10 |

| IdleOne | ryan_: try them both and make up your own mind about it | 04:32 |
| bastid_raZor | Old_Gregg:: no it is available for linux. i use it in command line all the time | 04:32 |
| joann | thanks I'll take a look | 04:32 |
| charlesgrn | Hi. I've got a bit of an issue.. Ubuntu is detecting my WDA-1320 pci wireless card, but it's not creating an ath0 interface. Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this? | 04:32 |
| adrift | Ryan, I was curious, do you know what I updated that messed up my resolution and took away Vista out of Grub? | 04:33 |
| skullhead | dos any one know what would be the problem if i have no audio in any browser when i go to youtube and yes i have the fix and ive installed flash player 9 manualy | 04:33 |
| Schiz0 | Hey, where can I find the changelog of packages? Like recently there was a security update for the kernel, and I'm wondering what was changed. | 04:33 |
| ryan_ | Nope. | 04:34 |
| ryan_ | I've got no clue. | 04:34 |
| === ryan_ is now known as Nyax | ||
| adrift | ok, well thanks anyways :D | 04:34 |
| Old_Gregg | bastid_raZor: I unzipped it but how do I run it now? | 04:34 |
| bastid_raZor | Old_Gregg:: try poweriso -help | 04:35 |
| joann | thanks I'll take a look | 04:35 |
| adrift | is there anyway to go back to my previous install of ubuntu? | 04:35 |
| Old_Gregg | bastid_raZor: Command not found | 04:35 |
| IdleOne | adrift: fresh install | 04:36 |
| IdleOne | !backup | adrift | 04:36 |
| ubotu | adrift: There are many ways to back your system up. Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi - See also !sbackup and !cloning | 04:36 |
| adrift | ack IdleOne, any other way? | 04:36 |
| bastid_raZor | Old_Gregg:: right.. poweriso -? .. my mistake | 04:36 |
| Old_Gregg | bastid_raZor: Command not found | 04:37 |
| skullhead | has any one fixed this whole flash player problem or is it just me still geting it? | 04:37 |
| sundar | i am having slow speed on my ktorrent...i forwarded the port in router | 04:37 |
| adrift | IdleOne, is there specifically a command that will restore back to a previous install? | 04:37 |
| IdleOne | adrift: you could try the Restore to Previous version application. ( hmmm wait that doesnt exist ) | 04:37 |
| adrift | or, at least, do you know of one? | 04:37 |
| adrift | hehe | 04:37 |
| bastid_raZor | Old_Gregg:: move the poweriso binary to /usr/local/bin then try .. or be in the same directory as the unzipped and use ./poweriso -? | 04:38 |
| IdleOne | adrift: no there isnt any. fresh install is your best bet backup your /home and anything else you might want or need and there you go | 04:38 |
| adrift | wow | 04:38 |
| adrift | that sucks | 04:38 |
| adrift | my fear is that if I do a fresh reinstall I'll still have to figure out how to reconfigure grub to recognize Windows | 04:39 |
| IdleOne | adrift: I dont think it sucks. that is why sudo is required to install an app or upgrade. forces you to think of what you are doing and the implications | 04:39 |
| adrift | I mean, I've done it once, I just don't want to have to go through all of that again. | 04:39 |
| IdleOne | !fixgrub | adrift | 04:40 |
| ubotu | adrift: 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 | 04:40 |
| adrift | good point IdleOne, but I suppose I relied on the Gui version of update manager to do my work for me | 04:40 |
| IdleOne | there you go | 04:40 |
| IdleOne | even the gui asked for password | 04:40 |
| adrift | haha. | 04:40 |
| Old_Gregg | bastid_raZor: Okay, I got a list of commands. I would like to turn the contents of a directory into an ISO file. Would I go poweriso /home/greg/Desktop/Windows/*.* /home/greg/Desktop/WindowsXP.iso -ot iso ? | 04:40 |
| adrift | well i suppose there's that. | 04:40 |
| IdleOne | but me telling you I told you so doesnt help. | 04:40 |
| adrift | well thank you for the link | 04:41 |
| Flughafen | can somebody help me with a problem with my other hd? | 04:41 |
| IdleOne | np adrift use the !backup and !fixgrub links you will be fine | 04:41 |

| Flughafen | nomasteryoda, ubuntu gutsy has stopped recognizing my other hd | 04:42 |
| bastid_raZor | Old_Gregg:: poweriso converts to iso it doesn't create them out of files :\ | 04:42 |
| Old_Gregg | bastid_raZor: How can I create a bootable disc using the files I have in a directory on my desktop? | 04:42 |
| Flughafen | nomasteryoda, well it recognizes that it exists but wont let me access any files on it | 04:42 |
| yanger | hi. having trouble changing association of extension to program.. right click on the file (for this, AVI) -> properties -> Open With tab -> and choosing MPlayer Movie Player (originally Movie Player selected) but this won't allow me to change it. The radio button sticks on Movie Player.. any ideas? happens to all other files as well... | 04:42 |
| adrift | hmm the link give me some info IdleOne,but it seems to depend heavily on me getting back into Vista. Unfortunately Vista is no longer an option in Grub | 04:42 |

| IdleOne | Fezzler: it might be broken at the momment. try using the command line sudo apt-get update | 04:43 |
| nomasteryoda | Flughafen, do you see the drive listed? | 04:43 |
| Flughafen | nomasteryoda, yes | 04:43 |
| IdleOne | Fezzler: I dont know why the update manager isnt working though | 04:44 |
| nomasteryoda | ok | 04:44 |
| IdleOne | adrift: what link is that? | 04:44 |
| Flughafen | nomasteryoda, it even shows up in my media folder | 04:44 |

| MuDBluR | nomasteryoda: u can use the gparted to do this | 04:48 |
| MuDBluR | nomasteryoda: don`t ? | 04:48 |
| nomasteryoda | nullvoid, you should be able to do that from live cd | 04:48 |
| nomasteryoda | MuDBluR, yes | 04:48 |
| IdleOne | nullvoid: use gparted ( in repos ) make sure to defrag windows first | 04:48 |
| nomasteryoda | its on the Ubuntu live cd | 04:49 |
| IdleOne | also on live cd yeah | 04:49 |
| EADG | charlesgrn: I'm outta ideas, other than trying eth1. | 04:49 |
| nullvoid | IdleOne: apt-get gparted, defrag windows and resize with gparted? | 04:49 |
| nomasteryoda | ya defrag is a must to make it work | 04:49 |
| nullvoid | don't have a live cd... only install. | 04:49 |
| nullvoid | can you run it over X | 04:49 |
| nomasteryoda | nullvoid, the alternate cd? or the one where you get a GUI desktop with the install icon on it? | 04:49 |
| IdleOne | nullvoid: you are probably better off using the live cd to do it but defrag is a must like nomasteryoda said | 04:49 |
| Flughafen | nomasteryoda, it didnt quite work | 04:49 |

| nomasteryoda | try the command sudo umount /media/DRV5_VOL1 | 05:10 |
| pg | michael: Have you tried System -> Preferences -> Appearance? | 05:10 |
| nomasteryoda | Flughafen, if you do a "sudo ls -al /media/DRV5_VOL1" there is no higher ... so you'd be able to see files in it if it was mounted | 05:11 |
| pg | myke54142:: thanks. I actually use Ubuntu (GNOME) on an 800MHz thinkpad fine | 05:11 |
| Flughafen | nomasteryoda, its it says /media/DRV5_VOL1: not mounted | 05:11 |
| nomasteryoda | yes .. more ram is better | 05:11 |
| nomasteryoda | ok | 05:11 |
| xcom | the latest version of ubuntu has good bluetooth support? | 05:11 |
| rubydiamond | xcom: yes | 05:12 |
| Eroick | nullvoid: thats my best guess. | 05:12 |
| nomasteryoda | Flughafen, | 05:12 |
| Eroick | nullvoid: its an onboard card | 05:12 |
| nullvoid | ohh... | 05:12 |
| xcom | rubydiamond: so it's got some kind of gui program that displays what devices it can see | 05:12 |
| nomasteryoda | your NTFS drive contains errors from that "sudo mount -a" | 05:12 |
| xcom | rubydiamond: and you can transfer files easilly? | 05:12 |
| nomasteryoda | it shows them that is... | 05:12 |
| nomasteryoda | mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdb1 /media/DRV5_VOL1 -o force | 05:12 |
| pg | myke54142: And they say KDE4 beta is 40% faster than KDE3, so maybe you can use that in April | 05:12 |
| Eroick | I guess my options are to go down to LTS or 7.04... | 05:12 |
| nullvoid | It sounds like for now you have no choice but to try another distro and see if it works... unless someone here or on the forums has a solution. :s | 05:12 |
| nomasteryoda | will mount it, but i recommend checking for errors before doing so | 05:13 |
| rubydiamond | xcom: try #ubuntu | 05:13 |
| nomasteryoda | if you want to keep the info on it | 05:13 |
| pg | I can't make Linux automatically establish a connection by dhcp when I boot. Ndiswrapper is inserted, but I have to run dhclient manually. dmesg output is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49380/ | 05:13 |
| === aaabbbcccddedfsd is now known as sfds | ||
| xcom | oh, this is #ubuntu-unregged or #ubuntu? | 05:13 |
| IdleOne | xcom: same thing | 05:13 |
| tehm0nk | anyone here with dual video cards w/ dual X screens? | 05:13 |
| nomasteryoda | mount tried to tell you that... i had to learn that myself... ntfs-3g was new to me with Gutsy... | 05:14 |
| Eroick | nullvoid: well, i know that older releases work | 05:14 |
| === Q_Continuum is now known as Q_Contoxicated | ||
| RB2 | xcom, also take a look at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bluetooth and the links on that page. | 05:14 |

| tehm0nk | Has anyone had problems with compiz and ubuntu | 05:16 |
| sancho___ | since upgrading to 7.10 (gutsy), i've been getting errors when i try to save files to disk in openoffice apps, gvim, maybe others... | 05:16 |
| sancho___ | "Invalid file name" "Invalid byte sequence in conversion input" | 05:16 |
| presto101 | anyone here use envy | 05:16 |
| W1ZrD | Any tips regarding a good c++ editor? | 05:16 |
| sancho___ | W1ZrD: vi(1) | 05:16 |
| W1ZrD | argh :) | 05:16 |
| voidmage | W1ZrD: i second vi | 05:17 |
| KyleS-home | vim? | 05:17 |
| W1ZrD | everything that starts with 'vi...' is....unf unf | 05:17 |
| sancho___ | W1ZrD: if you want an IDE, that's a different story. | 05:17 |
| Dr_willis | i sort of like fte.. :) | 05:17 |
| HardDisk | presto101, you really don't need envy. | 05:17 |
| KyleS-home | vi is the best :P | 05:17 |
| xcom | RB2: thanks, it looks good. I'm getting sick of having to hook my phone up each time i want to test stuff on it | 05:17 |
| presto101 | i had a bit of trouble upgrading my driver and was wanting to discuss the issues i still have | 05:17 |
| Dr_willis | I second that.. envy = bad. :) | 05:17 |
| nomasteryoda | Flughafen, then you can defrag and it should fix your error and let it mount easily like before | 05:17 |
| RB2 | W1ZrD, I haven't used it, but if you're looking for an IDE, I heard good things about Code::Blocks | 05:18 |
| nomasteryoda | apt-get install defrag | 05:18 |
| RB2 | xcom, np | 05:18 |
| presto101 | yeah it was my mistake i got impatient for the new 169. nvidia drivers | 05:18 |
| W1ZrD | RB2: thanks, I just wanted something else than vi :) | 05:18 |
| MrSmurfing | hi | 05:18 |
| HardDisk | I would advise to either use the restricted drivers OR if you have to, use the binaries provided by the manufacturer ie ATI/Nvidia. | 05:18 |
| presto101 | my nexuiz benchmarks are higher but my glxgears is lower? | 05:18 |
| Dr_willis | glxgears is not a reliable benchmark. :) | 05:19 |
| Flughafen | nomasteryoda, now how do i use it? | 05:19 |
| HardDisk | don't depend on glxgears. | 05:19 |
| RB2 | W1ZrD, I rely on SciTE Text Editor | 05:19 |
| Flughafen | nomasteryoda, is it a command line program? | 05:19 |
| === Jack_Sparrow is now known as Jack_Smirnoff | ||
| MrSmurfing | I'm new to shell scripting... I have a variable $signal and it contains a number with a - in front of it... I'm trying to strip off the "-" character - so if signal=-65 then signal=65 | 05:19 |
| W1ZrD | RB2: syntax highlightning? | 05:20 |
| RB2 | W1ZrD, yep. | 05:20 |
| W1ZrD | Nice, I'll take a look at that one then | 05:20 |
| RB2 | W1ZrD, Support everything from HTML/CSS to C/C++, python... a huge range of language support. | 05:20 |
| presto101 | HardDisk and Dr_willis so id trust the nexuiz benchmarks more than glx gears | 05:20 |
| ericsc | Hello all. Anyone familiar with a Dell Inspiron 9300? | 05:20 |
| W1ZrD | ericsc: it's a black box from dell? | 05:21 |
| Cavisty | Could anybody help me out with my USB headset? Ive gotten the sound to work with like xmms, it wont work with totem, or firefox | 05:21 |
| ericsc | W1ZrD. Silver, not black notebook | 05:21 |
| HardDisk | presto101, aye. | 05:22 |
| W1ZrD | ericsc: ah, was a 50/50 :) | 05:22 |
| HardDisk | presto101, speaking from a tux gamer myself :) | 05:22 |
| presto101 | HardDisk thanks | 05:22 |
| HardDisk | as* | 05:22 |
| pg | MrSmurfing: new=$(echo $signal | sed -r 's/^-//') | 05:22 |
| presto101 | HardDisk i was a bit worried after i had some trouble | 05:22 |
| ericsc | W1ZrD: Running Gutsy, but have no sound from the built in speakers. Fiesty had no problems. | 05:22 |
| MrSmurfing | pg: dude, I have no idea what that means, but I'll try it... thanks | 05:23 |
| HardDisk | if you have nexius on high settings and still getting over 80-100FPS you're alright :) | 05:23 |
| pg | MrSmurging: see also http://wooledge.org:8000/BashFAQ | 05:23 |
| MrSmurfing | great, thanks | 05:23 |
| W1ZrD | ericsc: would that be the openal drivers then? | 05:23 |
| pg | MrSmurfing: man sed | 05:23 |
| W1ZrD | ericsc: you get sound with plugged in speakers/headphones? | 05:24 |
| ericsc | W1ZrD: Don't know. How would I check (I don't think I insalled anything special) | 05:24 |
| HardDisk | presto101, speaking of games I know this is offtopic, BUT..try alien arena, urban terror, frets on fire and gridwars | 05:24 |
| MrSmurfing | which man sed what? | 05:24 |
| Flughafen | nomasteryoda, ill defrag it from my windows partition | 05:24 |
| presto101 | my nexuis benchmark went from 26/50/75 old to 37/60/92 new | 05:24 |
| ericsc | W1ZrD: Headset works fine. | 05:24 |
| MrSmurfing | lol | 05:24 |
| sancho___ | MrSmurfing: or ${signal##-} | 05:24 |

| moDumass | any ideas on how to install a logitech quickcam communicator in gutsy? | 05:26 |
| sancho___ | pg: good syntax to know ( ${name#pattern} and ${name%pattern} ) | 05:26 |
| HardDisk | presto101, understandable. | 05:26 |
| Jack_Smirnoff | moDumass: the bot has a link for webcams , I dont have one... | 05:26 |
| HardDisk | moDumass, I have one, and it works out of the box | 05:26 |
| presto101 | one other question if i can HardDisk is there a way to make sure everything is good to go | 05:26 |
| moDumass | !webcam | 05:26 |
| ubotu | Instructions for using webcams with Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Webcam - Supported cams: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsMultimediaWebCameras | 05:26 |
| HardDisk | moDumass, you can test it, but downloading an app called Cheese | 05:27 |
| moDumass | thanks | 05:27 |
| HardDisk | but = by | 05:27 |
| HardDisk | damn | 05:27 |
| HardDisk | I really need sleep :) | 05:27 |
| HardDisk | well presto101 check by looking at nvidia-settings (if you're nvidia) and got all your settings in order. | 05:27 |
| HardDisk | presto101, and I assume you are using the restricted drivers? | 05:28 |
| _Casey_ | !hdaintel | 05:28 |
| ubotu | For fixing your Intel HDA sound this page has useful information https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto | 05:28 |
| moDumass | hmm, what is the difference between easycam and easycam2? | 05:28 |
| romistrub | alright, so... I'm trying to settle myself into the "linux community" so to speak... | 05:28 |
| HardDisk | difference of 1 | 05:28 |
| HardDisk | romistrub, you don't settle, you dive in. | 05:28 |
| presto101 | HardDisk yes the brand new ones | 05:28 |
| romistrub | I want to help out... learn more.... | 05:28 |
| HardDisk | presto101, then you should be fine, enjoy gaming :) | 05:28 |
| presto101 | 169.07 | 05:28 |
| HardDisk | that's fine. | 05:29 |
| romistrub | HardDisk: You're not kidding :P | 05:29 |
| Jack_Smirnoff | romistrub: You are in the rihgt place to learn | 05:29 |
| HardDisk | there are sites to help such as ubuntuguide.org ubuntugeek.com ubuntuhq.com | 05:29 |
| presto101 | i checked everything and it looks good except im getting 2 errors when i start | 05:29 |
| HardDisk | 2 errors when you start what? | 05:29 |
| presto101 | nvidia settings | 05:29 |
| W1ZrD | ericsc: not sure about that problem, but this might help https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Gutsy_Intel_HD_Audio_Controller | 05:29 |
| presto101 | i start it from the terminal | 05:30 |
| HardDisk | ok | 05:30 |
| HardDisk | does it load? | 05:30 |
| ericsc | W1ZrD: Thanks. Will take a look | 05:30 |
| HardDisk | also you may have to sudo nvidia-settings | 05:30 |
| presto101 | yes it does | 05:30 |
| HardDisk | not just plain | 05:30 |
| romistrub | Well, the more I learn, the more I'm fascinated by it. From the very beginning, working with linux has made me gain a new appreciation for the work that goes into hardware and software. Used to take all of that jazz for granted. Hehe. | 05:30 |
| HardDisk | you wont be able to save some settings without sudeo | 05:30 |
| HardDisk | sudo | 05:30 |
| presto101 | no the full gui interface | 05:30 |
| presto101 | here is the 1st error | 05:31 |
| pg | sancho_: it's cool, but I think it's more readable to use universal tools. Less things should be implemented inside the shell, less special cases in bash scripts and more portability across shells | 05:31 |

| Fezzler | I just noticed, it is not my Update Manager that isn't working, it any GNOME Administration function. Are my Permissions messed up? How do I check? | 05:31 |
| HardDisk | presto101, I know run sudo nvidia-settings rather than nvidia-settings alone | 05:31 |
| ime3 | i'm trying to figure out what is wrong with this code... cat >> /etc/inittab << face="courier new">1:2345:respawn:/sbin/rungetty (line2) --autologin intel (line3) EOF and i get ">" when i copy paste this into the terminal | 05:31 |

| HardDisk | not a big deal | 05:31 |
| Khisanth | romistrub: many people would say that is a bad thing :) | 05:31 |
| Jack_Smirnoff | presto101: Please use the pastebin to upload that.... then post the link to it in here | 05:31 |
| presto101 | ok thanks i feel better | 05:31 |
| presto101 | oops sorry your right i forgot | 05:32 |
| HardDisk | s/your/you're | 05:32 |

| HardDisk | " I've always enjoyed poking around with things I didn't understand..." I don't know if that's a good thing too :) | 05:33 |
| pg | HardDisk: s/that/who | 05:33 |
| The_Doctor2 | Fezzler, there is only one "super user" and You can set user options fomr the users & groups menu | 05:33 |
| HardDisk | pg, my point exactly :) | 05:33 |
| romistrub | HardDisk: Hogwash :P... one of my favourite ways to learn! | 05:33 |
| HardDisk | had a buddy who did that ALL the time with me. | 05:33 |
| RB2 | Fezzler, it should ask you for a password when you launch administrative functions. | 05:33 |
| HardDisk | and I just totally ignored him. | 05:33 |
| kye | how can i make ubuntu auto mount /dev/sda1 when it starts? | 05:33 |
| HardDisk | !automount | kye | 05:34 |
| HardDisk | hmm no automount? | 05:34 |
| josh-nz | Hi all. I'm running Feisty and I need to compile Pidgin with dh_make. How might I do that? | 05:34 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about automount - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 05:34 |
| Dr_willis | kye, proper entry in the fstab. | 05:34 |
| Dr_willis | !fstab | 05:34 |

| jediborger | Does anyone know where the "Xclient Script" is for the default login session under GDM? I would like to know what commands it runs. | 05:34 |
| Jack_Smirnoff | josh-nz: If you want pidgin in feisty I can help with that.. | 05:34 |
| romistrub | How many people do you suppose are working on linux at a time? | 05:34 |
| Fezzler | The_Doctor2: I thought my Update Manager wasn't working. Now I notice ALL Administration functions are not working. So I can't use User & Groups | 05:34 |
| kye | lol @ romistrub alot | 05:35 |
| HardDisk | romistrub, you writing a magazine article? | 05:35 |
| romistrub | ... | 05:35 |
| romistrub | lol no | 05:35 |
| HardDisk | well no point in asking that question really. | 05:35 |
| The_Doctor2 | Fezzler, that can be a problem. Did you forget your root password? | 05:35 |
| josh-nz | Jack_Smirnoff: Sure, that'd be great. I tried a simple make but I got a string of errors. | 05:35 |
| HardDisk | unless you want statistics. | 05:35 |
| romistrub | Meh, juts a curiosityh | 05:35 |
| The_Doctor2 | You do know I don't think you can reset that | 05:35 |
| romistrub | Well, not stats... but... seems like a massive project :P | 05:35 |
| HardDisk | romistrub, the answer is "many people" | 05:35 |
| pg | ime3: have you tried | 05:35 |
| HardDisk | projects. | 05:35 |
| tehm0nk | !dri | 05:35 |
| ubotu | dri is direct rendering infrastructure, a framework for allowing direct access to graphics hardware under the X Window System in a safe and efficient manner. | 05:35 |
| Fezzler | The_Doctor: Nope. Can run Terminal/Command Line perfectly | 05:35 |
| pg | echo -e "face="courier new">1:2345:respawn:/sbin/rungetty \n --autologin intel \n EOF " >> /etc/inittab | 05:35 |
| ime3 | pg have i tried what? | 05:36 |
| Jack_Smirnoff | josh-nz: This page has two debs.. that will do it all for you.. http://www.kalpiknigam.com/blog/2007/05/12/install-pidgin-200-on-ubuntu-feisty-with-all-plugins/ | 05:36 |
| romistrub | HardDisk: True | 05:36 |
| HardDisk | each distro has it's own set of people. | 05:36 |
| HardDisk | some interact, some don't. | 05:36 |
| pg | ime3: I thought you were trying to append some text to /etc/inittab | 05:36 |
| ime3 | pg ohh no | 05:36 |
| Jack_Smirnoff | josh-nz: pidgin 2.0.2 and pidgin-data 2.0.2 | 05:36 |
| ime3 | pg i have not.. i think that is what i'm trying to do. i'm not entirely sure. i'm reading a tutorial with that code. | 05:37 |
| romistrub | HardDisk: Context: I had an epiphane regarding "free" software | 05:37 |
| Fezzler | Doctor2: Is there a command line instruction I can use to check all users and their permissions and I'll report back what it says for user "Dad" | 05:37 |
| romistrub | Which is why the questions are flowing | 05:37 |
| HardDisk | romistrub, well free software doesn't mean opensource. | 05:37 |
| josh-nz | Jack_Smirnoff: Thanks. Do you know how to compile with dh_make, though? I should probably learn, and I'd like to install the very latest version if I can. | 05:37 |
| romistrub | HardDisk: Quoi? | 05:37 |
| HardDisk | technically (and I have done it for client machines) you can have a windows xp workstation running entirely on free software, except of course for the OS | 05:37 |
| bullgard4 | What is meant by 'parameter expansion'? | 05:38 |
| seren6ipity | Hi. I'm a new ubuntu user. I'm experiencing issues with usb drive since I updated to Gutsy. Can some one help please? | 05:38 |
| pg | ime3: I think the problem is that it is missing the delimiter EOF after << and before you start the text to be appended | 05:38 |
| HardDisk | seren6ipity, state the problem exactly. | 05:38 |
| Jack_Smirnoff | josh-nz: you would be best to use what I linked until you get better at compiling | 05:38 |
| pg | HardDisk: where does the OS end and the rest begin? | 05:38 |
| presto101 | HardDisk so glxgears being lower is nothing to worry about correct? | 05:39 |
| HardDisk | pg, it's almost 8am and I haven't slept, I can't discuss linux philosophies right now :) BUT I would gladly do so when I wake up. | 05:39 |
| josh-nz | Jack_Smirnoff: Will do. Might google about for a howto on compiling, perhaps. | 05:40 |
| seren6ipity | Thanks for your response, Harddisk. The issue is - A flash drive or any other device thru usb drive doesn't work properly. It might work or not...not sure when it does. Then after a few mins. The device gets disconnected and a message appears - use eject option for safe removal. | 05:40 |
| Jack_Smirnoff | !compile | 05:40 |
| ubotu | Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first) | 05:40 |
| RB2 | Jack_Smirnoff, Are you familiar with any of the plug-ins for Pidgin? (development-wise) | 05:40 |
| HardDisk | presto101, no. since glxgears is a fixed set of instructions. best way to benchmark is to use the games themselves like they do in the real world, when benchmarking videocards they base it on the actual games. | 05:40 |
| pg | I can't make Linux automatically establish a connection by dhcp when I boot. Ndiswrapper is inserted, but I have to run dhclient manually. dmesg output is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49380/ It seems that the connection is dropped by network manager | 05:40 |
| romistrub | HardDisk: It mostly has to do with how one interacts with the community of devs and support. So much different than a corporate infrastructure. | 05:41 |
| HardDisk | seren6ipity, try this and tell me if it does the same issue, sudo rmmod ehci_hcd | 05:41 |
| HardDisk | basically what this does is turns your USB 2.0 to a USB 1.0 connection. | 05:41 |
| lumpy | night all | 05:41 |
| HardDisk | I've had this issue with my microSD card reader, but no problems with my usb HD | 05:41 |
| moDumass | hey all, for me to get my webcam going i need to "Requires updated uvcvideo driver" im sorry that im a bit slow, but how would i do this? | 05:41 |
| romistrub | night lumpy | 05:41 |
| seren6ipity | Thanks, HardDisk. I'll try and get back to you. | 05:41 |
| === lumpy is now known as zzZlumpZzz | ||
| HardDisk | seren6ipity, and when you want to get it back, do sudo modprobe ehci-hcd | 05:42 |
| HardDisk | notice the difference between _ and - | 05:42 |
| Scoldog | Can anyone recommend a decent way of synching to a network folder? | 05:42 |
| HardDisk | Scoldog, rsync | 05:42 |
| HardDisk | and there's a gui for it | 05:42 |
| Scoldog | Tried grsync, it doesn't seem to work for network drives | 05:42 |
| Scoldog | Can't locate them | 05:43 |
| seren6ipity | Thanks, HardDisk. You rock :) It worked! | 05:43 |
| HardDisk | Scoldog, sure does work, I think you may need to check your samba settings maybe? | 05:43 |
| RB2 | Scoldog, Are they NFS drives or Samba shares? | 05:43 |
| HardDisk | seren6ipity, no probs, remember to get your USB 2.0 back is to sudo modprobe ehci-hcd | 05:43 |
| moDumass | so how do i update the uvcvideo driver? | 05:43 |
| Scoldog | I'll check them, BRB | 05:44 |
| HardDisk | seren6ipity, are you using a card reader? | 05:44 |
| seren6ipity | Harddisk. yes. I'll set it back. Am using an external cd writer. | 05:44 |
| HardDisk | seren6ipity, somehow some card readers have this issue, that's why I told you to do that. | 05:44 |
| presto101 | HardDisk thanks for your help and be back in a bit gang | 05:44 |
| HardDisk | seren6ipity, ah, well that's why :) | 05:44 |
| RB2 | HardDisk, I never knew there was a GUI for rsync. :) ty | 05:44 |

| Timon_Crazy | hello all! | 05:45 |
| gstory | Has anyone had an issue the the 2.4.5 postfix backport and 4.46.2 mailscanner? | 05:45 |
| gstory | On Dapper I should say. | 05:45 |
| seren6ipity | :-) It works good with printer but with camera, flash drive causes problem | 05:45 |
| HardDisk | ok well seriously guys would love to stay, but I REALLY have to sleep gotta take some people to show them the pyramids :) | 05:45 |
| seren6ipity | Have a sound sleep, harddisk. ZZZZ | 05:45 |
| Cavisty | Could anybody help me out with my USB headset? Ive gotten the sound to work with like xmms, it wont work with totem, or firefox | 05:45 |
| RB2 | HardDisk, gnight | 05:46 |
| osxdude | Night all | 05:46 |
| Scoldog | I've got the network drive mounted as a samba share | 05:46 |
| pg | I can't make Linux automatically establish a connection by dhcp when I boot. Ndiswrapper is inserted, but I have to run dhclient manually. dmesg output is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49380/ It seems that the connection is dropped by network manager | 05:46 |
| sam_ | um..indyspeedyracer? | 05:47 |
| sam_ | indy.. | 05:47 |
| sam_ | something | 05:47 |
| IndyGunFreak | lol | 05:47 |
| sam_ | indyspeedygun? | 05:47 |
| sam_ | oh | 05:47 |
| sam_ | i keep forgetting | 05:47 |
| IndyGunFreak | no prob | 05:47 |
| romistrub | when I start up, I always get the wrong resolution... for some reason ubuntu isn't saving my settings | 05:48 |
| romistrub | also, why are there two mechanisms to change the resolution? what are the differences? | 05:48 |
| bullgard4 | What is meant by 'parameter expansion'? | 05:48 |
| Scoldog | Do I need to synch grsync with the samba drives mount point | 05:48 |
| Scoldog | ? | 05:48 |
| RB2 | Scoldog, Samba shares aren't my specialty. Are you mounting them to a local mount point? | 05:48 |
| Scoldog | Don't think so | 05:49 |
| Scoldog | I use "Connect to Server" in the places menu | 05:49 |
| RB2 | Def. do that and then point grsync to the mount point. | 05:49 |
| Scoldog | Stupid question, how do I setup a local mount point? | 05:50 |
| RB2 | Scoldog, Not a stupid question. The prob. is that I don't have a Windows box up and running right now to run through the process myself. | 05:50 |
| Scoldog | Oh, OK | 05:51 |
| Scoldog | Just so you know | 05:51 |
| RB2 | Scoldog, Maybe someone else here knows it off the top of their head | 05:51 |
| Scoldog | I have a NAS box, not a second computer I am synching with | 05:51 |
| Scoldog | It doesn't have SSH on it, so I couldn't use Unison | 05:51 |
| roddy | Hi, I just bought a USB TV Tuner... I can see the device when i type "lsusb" , but it doesn't appear to be mounting/getting recognised from Linux (me thinks i have an incompatible device for Linux. I didn't want to install Windows just for that device) | 05:52 |
| Scoldog | smb4k kept asking for a password to mount it even though I've set it up as free access for all | 05:52 |
| Scoldog | I'll have a gander around to web for a sec | 05:52 |
| furthur | roddy : it most likely needs drivers and usb tv tuners im afraid arent very supported :S | 05:52 |
| furthur | roddy : have a quick search online for the make and see if anythign pops up | 05:53 |
| dibblego | what's the standard method of upgrading feisty to gutsy? | 05:53 |
| furthur | dibblego : just go in system update | 05:53 |
| roddy | yeah, nothing seems to pop up for Linux. If i can see what the drivers are for Windows is there a guide out there to tell me how to write drivers for Linux? Or am i asking for the impossible? ;) | 05:53 |
| dibblego | ah right cheers; can it be done from the command line? | 05:53 |
| furthur | **update manager | 05:53 |
| RB2 | Scoldog, Yeah, I just did a search for 'Ubuntu mount Samba Share' and came up with a lot. | 05:53 |
| tehm0nk | Does anyone use Compiz here? | 05:53 |
| furthur | !compiz | 05:54 |
| ubotu | Compiz (compositing window manager) and XGL (X server architecture layered on top of OpenGL) - Howto at http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager - help in #compiz-fusion | 05:54 |
| Cavisty | Could anybody help me out with my USB headset? Ive gotten the sound to work with like xmms, it wont work with totem, or firefox | 05:54 |
| RB2 | tehm0nk, I do, but you'll prob. get the best answer in #compiz-fusion | 05:54 |
| tehm0nk | no one is alive in there | 05:55 |
| tehm0nk | RB2 are you on dual monitors by chance? | 05:55 |
| furthur | lol ops wouldent really like this but... more details? | 05:55 |
| RB2 | tehm0nk, I was for 30 minutes before it's crazy behaviors made me turn it off. :) | 05:55 |
| * Dr_willis draws in fire on RB2 's screen | 05:56 | |
| tehm0nk | wait what? | 05:56 |
| tehm0nk | LOL! | 05:56 |
| gstory | Is it possible to go back to postfix 2.2.10-1ubuntu from 2.4.5? Since my upgrade to 2.4.5, mailscanner is not processing the hold queue. | 05:56 |
| === chaky_ is now known as chaky | ||
| RB2 | tehm0nk, I might be able to help, what's the question? | 05:56 |
| RB2 | Dr_willis, did I offend? :) | 05:56 |
| furthur | gstory :try fetching a deb online and downgrade? | 05:56 |
| tehm0nk | Ok... both screens wont enable compiz... | 05:57 |
| gstory | I thought of that but wanted to know if there were any pitfalls. | 05:57 |
| tehm0nk | i'm running dual video cards, 1 monitor each, Dual X sessions... | 05:57 |
| Dr_willis | RB2, Tidal Wave! :) ripples! Must enable them all! | 05:57 |
| digerati | whenever i put a new file or folder inside my shared folder, it doesnt automatically apply the folder shared permissions on them. | 05:57 |
| digerati | i have to reapply to have access from other machines | 05:57 |
| RB2 | tehm0nk, I ran across an article addressing exactly that. let me see if I can dig it up | 05:57 |
| RB2 | Dr_willis, I loved the dual monitors but had a lot of problems with it. | 05:58 |
| Scoldog | Do local mount points have to be in the root of the file system? | 05:58 |
| Dr_willis | RB2, yep. I use 2 monitors a lot. some apps are just written badly and really mess things up | 05:58 |
| digerati | is there a way to make files automatically inherit the folder permissions when moved to them? | 05:58 |
| gstory | I would rather fix the mailscanner issue but so far have been striking out. Dapper is still showing 4.46.2 for mailscanner. One of the suggestions from the mailscanner irc and mail list was to upgrade mailscanner. I found 4.55 on the mailscanner site in a deb package. | 05:59 |
| RB2 | Dr_willis, I couldn't get a terminal window to work correctly. lol | 05:59 |
| RB2 | Scoldog, They can be anywhere you want that has a valid directory. You could make a folder in your home directory and mount there when you want to access it. | 06:00 |
| andre_pl | Has anyone got wpa encryption working in gutsy? I've got a linksys wrt54g funning the dd-wrt firmware and none of the wpa options work at all. | 06:00 |
| Scoldog | Cool, thanks for clarifying that, RB2 | 06:00 |
| NotSoGutsy | is there a way to get device details like manufacturer and model ? | 06:00 |
| ste-foy | Thx RB2 | 06:00 |
| RB2 | tehm0nk, I can't find the article I was reading. But, search the Ubuntu Forums. That's where I found my best answer. | 06:02 |
| Fezzler | HMM. So sudo adduser dad admin says I'm already admin So why can't I get any Administration functions to run? | 06:02 |
| RB2 | ste-foy, Did I help with something? | 06:02 |
| ste-foy | No RB2 | 06:02 |
| mikubuntu | i downloaded google earth package from synaptic, but it still does not appear in my menu, can someone tell me what other steps i have to take. i seem to remember having to do some cli when i installed on another machine few months back... | 06:02 |
| furthur | mikubuntu : killall gnome-panel | 06:03 |
| RB2 | Dr_willis, What video card are you using? | 06:03 |
| furthur | miubuntu : (little refresh) if not you can edit the menus by right clicking on them | 06:03 |
| joanki | i heard there is a software package i can install to use windows | 06:04 |
| joanki | on linux | 06:04 |
| Dr_willis | RB2, got a 5500 in one box, 6800 in this box.. 8800 in my main box. :) | 06:04 |
| joanki | does anyone know a good one? | 06:04 |
| furthur | joanki : qemu and virtualbox | 06:04 |
| slavik | joanki: or vmware | 06:04 |
| joanki | which one is better? | 06:04 |
| slavik | vmware server is free :) | 06:04 |
| joanki | qemu and virtualbox cost? | 06:04 |
| furthur | joanki : nope | 06:04 |
| slavik | nothing | 06:04 |
| mikubuntu | further, killall gnome? why would you do that? | 06:05 |
| Scoldog | Hmm, trying to mount the samba share to a local mount point via the command line, it keeps asking for a password for the network drive even though there is none | 06:05 |
| furthur | although virtualbox has a price for "better" version | 06:05 |
| joanki | how mcuh | 06:05 |
| furthur | so id recommend qemu | 06:05 |
| furthur | although you can also download a front end to make things easier | 06:05 |
| furthur | like qtemu | 06:05 |
| joanki | hm | 06:06 |
| joanki | further, what do u thinik of vmware | 06:06 |
| RB2 | Dr_willis, I'm using an 8800. The initial dual-monitor setup was easy and great, but nothing was quite right after that. I lost my window titlebars on the second screen and I couldn't load ff on it because it was "already running". | 06:06 |
| RB2 | Dr_willis, I just didn't have time to play with it. Maybe I will soon. | 06:06 |
| furthur | and you can compile kqemu modules to make thing LOTS faster | 06:06 |
| RB2 | Scoldog, What appliance are you using? | 06:06 |
| Scoldog | RB2, Sorry? | 06:06 |
| furthur | joanki : vmware? never used... heard lots of good about it but it seems very commercial | 06:07 |
| moDumass | !UVC | 06:07 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about uvc - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 06:07 |
| RB2 | Scoldog, What brand storage unit are you trying to access? | 06:07 |
| Scoldog | Ah | 06:07 |
| moDumass | !webcam | 06:07 |
| ubotu | Instructions for using webcams with Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Webcam - Supported cams: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsMultimediaWebCameras | 06:07 |
| furthur | joanki : for easy quick one just apt-get virtualbox | 06:07 |
| Scoldog | I'm not sure | 06:07 |
| slavik | furthur: vmware server is free and in case you need to use the commercial stuff, you have exposure :) | 06:07 |
| moDumass | man, i cant get this going | 06:07 |
| Dr_willis | RB2, i noticed that i enabled the twinview with the nvidia tools. and it worked. sort of... but not right. untill i actally restarted the X server. Other then a few apps being dumb. I dont recall any other issues. | 06:07 |
| Scoldog | Seems to be a no-name brand I got a month ago | 06:07 |
| furthur | slavik : thx I never really read into it | 06:07 |
| Scoldog | It's been a lot better than my last one though | 06:07 |
| joanki | k | 06:08 |
| slavik | furthur: although IBM did virtualization like 30 years ago ... heh | 06:08 |
| RB2 | Scoldog, Hmm... Do you have a Windows machine around you can try? | 06:08 |
| RB2 | Dr_willis, I used the NVidia tools, but not the TwinView setting. | 06:08 |
| Scoldog | RB2 Just got around that username and password thing by putting a username and password on the folder I am trying to sync | 06:09 |
| Scoldog | Now it has mounted it fine | 06:09 |
| RB2 | Scoldog, That's one way to handle it. Nice job :) | 06:09 |
| P235 | Hi, this is probably an extremely newb question. I am thinking of buying an AMD 64 Athlon X2 computer, but is this mean it is 64 bit? I've only used an Intel 32bit processor and I don't know much about AMD's chips at all. | 06:09 |
| domster | I have an external hardware modem (no winmodems here) that I'm trying to use in conjunction with a usb to serial adaptor. The usb/serial adaptor is recognised, and is working fine (lsmod shows pl2303, usbserial) and I can get the lights to flash with 'cat /dev/sda > /dev/ttyUSB0'. But I haven't had any luck getting the modem to dial from there. vwdialconf, for example, can't find the modem when it looks. | 06:09 |
| cabrioleur | P235: yes | 06:09 |
| Scoldog | Thanks. It just seems a bit silly to always expect a username and password. It's the same problem I had with smb4k | 06:10 |
| slavik | P235: all dual core CPUs are 64bit :) | 06:10 |
| domster | and when I'm not doing anything, the SD and RD lights are solid-on. | 06:10 |
| slavik | P235: and I mean ALL | 06:10 |
| domster | any ideas anyone? | 06:10 |
| P235 | slavik, ah, great. So by default is winXP 32 bit? | 06:10 |
| === Thecks_ is now known as Thecks | ||
| Scoldog | It's also reminiscent of the problem I had with network manager in Fiesty | 06:10 |
| slavik | P235: the only WinXP version that is 64bit is the 64bit edition which you have to buy separately :) | 06:11 |
| Dr_willis | RB2, to get the apps working right with 2 displays.. I always enable twinview, and disable xinerama | 06:11 |
| HardDisk | P235, you will only be able to use 64bit processing using 64bit apps ie, 64bit windows photoshop and autocad and a few high end apps. | 06:11 |
| RB2 | Dr_willis, I'll give it a try tomorrow. | 06:11 |
| RB2 | HardDisk, I thought you were sleeping. :) | 06:11 |
| HardDisk | I was just passing by getting some water | 06:11 |
| HardDisk | and saw you guys :) | 06:12 |
| HardDisk | im leaving now heeh :) | 06:12 |
| RB2 | HardDisk, Couldn't help yourself? :) | 06:12 |
| P235 | HardDisk, ah, I see, so there isn't much compatibility between 32 and 64 | 06:12 |
| HardDisk | no I couldn't RB | 06:12 |
| * slavik hasn't had any trouble with 32bit apps | 06:12 | |
| RB2 | HardDisk, I understand. hehe | 06:12 |
| SiroiSoriS | hello's | 06:12 |
| Gatton | P235: i have an athlon x2 64 bit and i'm quite happy running 32-bit everything :-) | 06:12 |
| slavik | except there is no 64bit java plugin | 06:12 |
| RB2 | Hi SiroiSoriS | 06:12 |
| fwaokda | how can i get my AWN to load on log in ? | 06:12 |
| EdwardXP | whats the difference between 32 - 64 bit applications? | 06:12 |
| SiroiSoriS | this is Daniel The Original Psci Muster | 06:13 |
| mikubuntu | further, nope i'm not having any luck with the menu editor, either... | 06:13 |
| EdwardXP | is there really adifference in how fast they operate? | 06:13 |
| furthur | fwaokda : System > preferences> session | 06:13 |
| HardDisk | EdwardXP, processing math power, I would get into details but this is not the time or place. | 06:13 |
| slavik | not really | 06:13 |
| SiroiSoriS | pleased to know you're good | 06:13 |
| mikubuntu | i downloaded google earth package from synaptic, but it still does not appear in my menu, can someone tell me what other steps i have to take. i seem to remember having to do some cli when i installed on another machine few months back... | 06:13 |
| fwaokda | furthur, what would i type in the field for it? | 06:13 |
| RB2 | Scoldog, Are you trying grsync now? | 06:13 |
| Scoldog | Yep | 06:13 |
| EdwardXP | faster processors are for servers activity huh? | 06:13 |
| furthur | fwaokda : avant-window-manager | 06:13 |

| Scoldog | I can see it now, just trying to figure out how to setup mulitple synchs | 06:14 |
| Scoldog | Thanks for your help RB2 | 06:14 |
| HardDisk | 32bit is still the way to go for any user, 64bit technically has an advantage for large, and I mean LARGE networks/processing applications. | 06:14 |
| HardDisk | ok NOW i'm going to bed. | 06:14 |
| fwaokda | k i'll try that thanks | 06:14 |
| furthur | fwaokda : **avant-window-navigator | 06:14 |

| P235 | I thought I might have a problem if I bought a 64 bit PC, but I guess it's not a big deal afterall | 06:15 |
| RB2 | Dr_willis, Thanks for the advice. I'm gonna' give it a try tomorrow. | 06:15 |
| furthur | mikubuntu : this is odd... shouldbe in menu... nevertheless you can simply add an entry with menu editor | 06:15 |
| MikeyPizano | hey? | 06:15 |
| SiroiSoriS | I half a requested question | 06:15 |
| SiroiSoriS | I've heard someone say something about The Isis Lamb Ofucking hell it's god! killing an Aryental every minute I sit here | 06:15 |
| SiroiSoriS | <SiroiSoriS> is that cunstitutional? | 06:15 |
| SiroiSoriS | lol | 06:15 |
| SiroiSoriS | ai | 06:15 |
| Dev05 | Hey people. I'm just curious: Is there anybody having problem with the latest nVidia drivers? When I install them I get massively weird output. | 06:16 |
| MikeyPizano | is it possible to run office 2007 on linux? | 06:16 |
| mikubuntu | further, i don't understand, how do i add an entry that will be linked to launching the program? | 06:16 |
| slavik | MikeyPizano: I tried once and it didn't work | 06:16 |
| MikeyPizano | aw | 06:16 |
| slavik | MikeyPizano: OOo doesn't suit your needs? | 06:16 |
| furthur | mikubuntu : click New Item | 06:16 |
| Cavisty | Any way to automount a disk when i boot up? | 06:16 |
| MikeyPizano | all my files are docx | 06:16 |
| HardDisk | MikeyPizano, you're serious about office 2007? you can get office xp, MAYBE 2003, but openoffice is the future..heck european governments are going ODF's and dropping MS doc's | 06:16 |
| slavik | Cavisty: edit the /etc/fstab file :) | 06:16 |
| furthur | mikubuntu : then add in command field : /usr/bin/googleearth %f | 06:17 |
| HardDisk | MikeyPizano, convert it back to doc, with MS's doc converter, it's free | 06:17 |
| HardDisk | ok REALLY going to bed now | 06:17 |
| MrPiracy | hello, could anyone help me with installing awn-extras? | 06:17 |
| MikeyPizano | that may be so but like i said all my files are docx and to be truthful i love office 2007 | 06:17 |
| furthur | mikeypizao : you can emulate seamlessly with kvm | 06:17 |
| EdwardXP | ms office .doc is the future of windows, u drop .doc, everything will die newyork will go under and san francisco | 06:17 |
| slavik | MikeyPizano: have you tried using OOo to open them? | 06:17 |
| moDumass | hey, how do i update a driver? | 06:17 |
| Cavisty | slavik: What would it be named though? And do I just put it at the end like after the /dev/hda things (Cd roms) | 06:17 |
| MikeyPizano | its a p3 750mhz | 06:17 |
| RB2 | MikeyPizano, It doesn't look good: http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iVersionId=7797 | 06:17 |
| MikeyPizano | no, it still has only xp on it | 06:17 |
| HardDisk | MikeyPizano, you can open docx in openoffice | 06:17 |
| MikeyPizano | oh | 06:17 |
| slavik | Cavisty: yes, you also want to read the manpage for fstab :) | 06:18 |
| HardDisk | !google docx openoffice | 06:18 |
| HardDisk | its like 5-6 steps | 06:18 |
| slavik | hmm, no man page? | 06:18 |
| MikeyPizano | maybe ill just leave xp on it, i also have grown to love outlook 2007 | 06:18 |
| furthur | enough with this heresy! | 06:19 |
| RB2 | lol | 06:19 |
| HardDisk | he's just a troll | 06:19 |
| mari | I have a Microsoft webcam and I am want to use it in Ubuntu Gutsy.... please help me install it! | 06:19 |

| HardDisk | jebus. | 06:19 |
| joanki | slavik, vmware is free? | 06:19 |
| RB2 | HardDisk, uh huh | 06:19 |
| joanki | someone else just told me it costs money | 06:19 |
| MrPiracy | how can i get rid of this: make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop. | 06:19 |
| SiroiSoriS | I've heard someone say something about The Isis Lamb Ofucking hell it's god! killing an Aryental every minute I sit here | 06:19 |
| SiroiSoriS | <SiroiSoriS> is that cunstitutional? | 06:19 |
| EdwardXP | i would like to know how i can install my webam | 06:19 |
| slavik | joanki: vmware server | 06:19 |
| EdwardXP | webcam too L( | 06:19 |
| slavik | but you have to register for the cd key | 06:19 |
| furthur | joanki : depending on version | 06:19 |
| HardDisk | joanki, sudo apt-get install vmware-server its free | 06:19 |
| Silver_Fox | Hi | 06:19 |
| slavik | HardDisk: it's in the repos?! | 06:19 |
| HardDisk | but virtualbox is better, in my opinion anyway.. | 06:20 |
| HardDisk | yea slav | 06:20 |
| furthur | agreeded | 06:20 |
| Silver_Fox | How do i get different desktop wallpapers on all of my 4 desktops? | 06:20 |
| mari | anyone? | 06:20 |
| joanki | so evertyone thinks virtual box is better? | 06:20 |
| stunatra | Virtual Box rocks! | 06:20 |
| joanki | ok | 06:20 |
| furthur | kvm is really nice if you get down and dirty | 06:20 |
| joanki | sudo apt-get install virtualbox? | 06:20 |
| joanki | why's that further | 06:20 |
| Dr_willis | ive had issues with some cases with virtualbox, and other cases with Vmware..... | 06:20 |
| Dr_willis | :) | 06:20 |
| Dr_willis | so try them both | 06:20 |
| Silver_Fox | whats virtual box? | 06:20 |
| HardDisk | joanki go to the virtualbox.org site to add its own repository to yours | 06:20 |
| RB2 | HardDisk, I've been looking at virtualbox and vmware workstation, etc. What made you choose virtualbox over everything else? | 06:20 |
| HardDisk | so you get updates | 06:21 |
| HardDisk | etc | 06:21 |
| furthur | kvm is basicaly a module you compile and based on qemu but has many options | 06:21 |
| furthur | seamless integration :p | 06:21 |
| Cavisty | slavik: So /dev/sda /media/disk would work? | 06:21 |
| MrPiracy | what's vmware repository? | 06:21 |
| HardDisk | RB2, personally, I found it ran multiple vm images faster. | 06:21 |
| Gatton | oh...i thought you meant a physical kvm lol | 06:21 |
| Cavisty | slavik: Or is it sda1 | 06:21 |
| furthur | virtualbox freeware dont have that! | 06:21 |
| HardDisk | I ran 2 xp and 1 win2003 server simultaneously | 06:21 |
| mikubuntu | further, ok, shows in menu now, lemme go test ... thanks | 06:21 |

| ubotu | mari: Instructions for using webcams with Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Webcam - Supported cams: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsMultimediaWebCameras | 06:21 |
| HardDisk | found vmware was slower | 06:21 |
| slavik | Cavisty: 1, I would not mount it anywhere under /media as it is used for automounted stuff. | 06:21 |
| voidmage | strange, now when I enable compiz it changes the window decorations | 06:21 |
| Silver_Fox | How do i get different wallpapers on all of my desktops? | 06:21 |
| RB2 | HardDisk, ahh, k. I really just need to boot a spare machine and try them all | 06:22 |
| voidmage | I'm pretty sure it's still using metacity themes, but it's using the wrong border | 06:22 |
| Cavisty | slavik: (I want it to automount) | 06:22 |
| Gatton | HardDisk: did you ever get that water on your way out of here? ;-) | 06:22 |
| furthur | I always tend to lean towards completly community written and maintained apps :) | 06:22 |
| slavik | Cavisty: 2. I don't know which device descriptor the kernel puts the drive under in your situation | 06:22 |
| HardDisk | Gatton, :) haha funny funny | 06:22 |
| slavik | Cavisty: automount as in hot pluggable stuff | 06:22 |
| HardDisk | it's an addiction I know. | 06:22 |
| HardDisk | can't leave | 06:22 |
| Cavisty | slavik: Like if i mount it manually, it mounts to /media/disk | 06:22 |
| slavik | Cavisty: 3. you should be using UUID anyway | 06:23 |
| HardDisk | it's like the keyboard doesn't want me to let go. | 06:23 |
| Cavisty | slavik: No clue what that is | 06:23 |
| snurtle | why is ubuntu better then fedora? | 06:23 |
| RB2 | HardDisk, LOL... the scary part is that I can relate. | 06:23 |
| SiroiSoriS | I've heard someone say something about The Isis Lamb Ofucking hell it's god! killing an Aryental every minute I sit here | 06:23 |
| Gatton | that linuxy goodness | 06:23 |
| joanki | i think ubuntu is cooler | 06:23 |
| slavik | Cavisty: 4. in my case, I created a /exs mount point when I added a 500GB drive to my system | 06:23 |
| joanki | but hey who knows | 06:23 |
| Romes | trick question: why is the etc directory named as such? | 06:23 |
| joanki | i have problems with ubuntu | 06:23 |
| Gatton | use what you like | 06:23 |
| furthur | because deb based distros PWN | 06:23 |
| HardDisk | I don't think ubuntu is better, I just think it's different. | 06:23 |
| SiroiSoriS | I've heard someone say something about The Isis Lamb Ofucking hell it's god! killing an Aryental every minute I sit here | 06:24 |
| Cavisty | slavik: This is a 500gig NTFS windows drive | 06:24 |
| SiroiSoriS | I've heard someone say something about The Isis LambS Ofucking hell it's god! killing an Aryental every minute I sit here | 06:24 |
| slavik | Cavisty: /media is used by the automounter for USB/cdrom/floppy devices. | 06:24 |
| voidmage | Romes: let me guess, it's not named after etcetera? | 06:24 |
| pg | Romes: Wikipedia file hierarchy standard perhaps | 06:24 |
| HardDisk | a distro is as good as it's developers/community. | 06:24 |
| bullgard4 | What is meant by 'parameter expansion'? | 06:24 |
| Romes | voidmage... is it? | 06:24 |
| EdwardXP | is there a way to star a video conference on ubuntu | 06:24 |
| slavik | Cavisty: there is a wiki page for this. I don't remember the title, but it is there. | 06:24 |
| joanki | wow that was SO easy to install virtualbox | 06:24 |
| HardDisk | EdwardXP, skype. | 06:24 |
| voidmage | Romes: because it really is named after etcetera and you're trying to make me second guess myself? | 06:24 |
| joanki | i'm thinking of scratching my xp altogether | 06:24 |
| * Gatton is using ubuntu but it's mint flavored shhhhh | 06:24 | |

| EdwardXP | it was a long time ago, and i want it hehehe | 06:25 |

| HardDisk | joanki, google for docx openoffice, you CAN open them | 06:26 |
| slavik | OpenOffice.org | 06:26 |
| HardDisk | just add the plugin | 06:26 |
| furthur | voidmage : emerald --replace | 06:26 |

| RB2 | I'll have to hunt down that plugin | 06:26 |

| slavik | Danil, зайди в #ubuntu-ru | 06:27 |
| voidmage | It works fine on my desktop, the problem is on my laptop | 06:27 |

| joanki | that's the only thing that doesn't work , but it's a big deal | 06:28 |

| subfreeze | Does anyone have a link to a howto for Ubuntu RAID setup for Sata drives? The ones I find are for some GUI-based install wizard, when I'm stuck on the LiveCD with the blue background step-by-step install. Hard to follow the wrong style howto ;) | 06:32 |
| voidmage | yeah, I want to use the metacity theme | 06:32 |
| voidmage | but it's using Screenshot-1.png's theme when I start compiz instead | 06:32 |
| pg | joanki: you can run s2disk from the command line, or apt-get install hibernate and configure it to do that when you press a key combination or close your laptop lid. I haven't done the last part. | 06:32 |
| redd0t | hello | 06:33 |
| joanki | problem is, pg, i wouldn't know how to configure it | 06:33 |
| pg | joanki: you should read some documentation and if you have problems, come here | 06:33 |

I turned off compiz weeks ago long before today... any idea why this is happening ? | 06:43 |
| joanki | yes | 06:43 |
| voidmage | it was using using my cairo theme instead of metacity theme | 06:43 |
| voidmage | gconf/apps/gw/use_metacity_decorations was set to false | 06:43 |
| voidmage | setting that to true fixed it | 06:43 |
| sinthetek | when i upgraded to gutsy, i backedup my mysql databases with mysqldump --all-databases and after upgrade used that output for the upgrade | 06:44 |

| joanki | ok | 06:44 |
| joanki | can i do more? | 06:44 |

| sinthetek | apparently it broke something with ubuntu's mysql package because ever since it complains that some deb-inst-maintainer user doesn't have access | 06:45 |
| furthur | joanki : you can have access ot your files on your computer when emulating windows | 06:45 |
| joanki | oh wow | 06:45 |
| joanki | k | 06:45 |
| joanki | so if i give 10 gb to it, which i think is generous, | 06:45 |
| CaptainMorgan | also, I can't right-click anything on my desktop... to create a file or whatnot... | 06:45 |
| furthur | joanki : size is not of concern, but remember that you are loosing space doing so | 06:45 |
| ciphercast | I'm trying to get this http://minipc.aopen.com/Global/spec.htm minipc set up as a media pc, but getting the digital audio and gfx to work is a pain in the ass | 06:45 |
| furthur | mikubuntu : try running that | 06:45 |
| mikubuntu | further, after that the list reads, or entries start with usr/bin/share | 06:45 |
| sinthetek | i tried re-adding the user with a password i found for it but i guess i didn't do it right. anyone know how to properly do it? | 06:45 |
| joanki | then that is equivalent to 10,000 mb, right? | 06:45 |
| furthur | mikubuntu : make-googleearth-package | 06:45 |
| CaptainMorgan | it's as if Nautilus is broken.. or stalling... wtf | 06:46 |
| ciphercast | intel has released the src for their latest chipset, http://intellinuxgraphics.org/documentation.html | 06:46 |
| sinthetek | mysql still starts and runs but now i cannot complete system update | 06:46 |
| furthur | joanki : well a megabyte is actually 1024bytes but yes roughly | 06:46 |
| hanasakiRemote | what is available for hdmi support? | 06:46 |
| mikubuntu | further, what do you mean ezackly; type that in terminal? | 06:46 |
| joanki | k | 06:46 |
| sinthetek | s/update/'full upgrade' | 06:46 |
| joanki | further, sorry to bother you, but it says base memory size is recommended to be 192 mb | 06:46 |
| furthur | mikubuntu : yes | 06:46 |
| joanki | should i do that? | 06:46 |
| ciphercast | furthur: I'm going to be a pc elitist, but that's actually a mebibyte | 06:47 |
| furthur | joanki : as I was saying earlier, that is for ram | 06:47 |
| ciphercast | :) | 06:47 |
| mikubuntu | further, k, i go try | 06:47 |

| CaptainMorgan | anyone? | 06:48 |
| edgy | s/debian/ubuntu | 06:48 |
| furthur | MrPiracy : sudo nautilus, go down to where the file is located, right click to extract then right click the extracted files to change permission back to your user (or sudo chmod 777 it | 06:49 |
| Silver_Fox | can anyone even here me? | 06:49 |
| furthur | joanki : yes, this image will act as a hard drive on which you will install (this will have to be set to a few gigs and will reside on your computer as a normal file) | 06:49 |
| Silver_Fox | Hello | 06:50 |
| joanki | further, dynamically expanding image or fixed-size image....? | 06:50 |

| shawn | Hello, I just installed Ubuntu on my Dell Dimension 2400 2.5 GHz 512 MB RAM computer, and I'm getting some extreme lag, as well as no watchable video playback (massive lag). Any suggestions anyone, please? | 06:55 |
| hwilde | Hi I want to send some MP3s to my iPod. I have gtkpod installed but it doesn't find it. dmesg sees it attached | 06:55 |
| hwilde | !ipod | 06:55 |
| ubotu | For information on how to sync and add tracks to your iPod, see the guide at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IPodHowto See !rockbox for information on liberating your iPod | 06:55 |
| mikubuntu | further, k, i go try | 06:55 |
| hwilde | !rockbox | 06:55 |
| ubotu | rockbox is an open source firmware replacement for audio players from Archos, iRiver, Apple (iPod), and iAudio. See http://www.rockbox.org/ to get started! | 06:55 |

| Vantage13 | Hi I've got a couple of compiz/ubuntu questions. First one, when I turn on the desktop effects, I find I can't use most of the keyboard shortcuts. Any one that is mapped to the super (windows) key doesn't work, because hitting that key opens the applications menu... any way around that? | 06:55 |
| NeoGeo64 | Hello... anyone here familiar with DBAN | 06:55 |
| shawn | bazhang, I am almost positive I did, how can I make sure? | 06:55 |
| shawn | Even Youtube videos lag terribly | 06:56 |
| bazhang | shawn: open up synaptic and make sure ubuntu-restricted-extras is installed | 06:56 |
| shawn | bazhang, I will try this, thank you | 06:56 |
| furthur | hwilde : rockbox is a pretty big step if you just want to put mp3s | 06:56 |
| hwilde | furthur, dmesg sees it connected but gtkpod doesn't find it | 06:56 |
| joanki | ok i'm gonna reboot everything - reinstall ubuntu and AX my XP | 06:57 |
| joanki | woohoooooo | 06:57 |

| bazhang | back in a bit.. | 06:57 |
| hwilde | furthur, no but I have rythmbox somewhere on here | 06:57 |
| subfreeze | Hey guys, can you add this to your repo of good links, if someone needs to setup SATA Raid, direct them to this: http://advosys.ca/viewpoints/2007/04/setting-up-software-raid-in-ubuntu-server/ | 06:57 |
| furthur | hwilde : its default with ubuntu... havea try should recognise your ipod | 06:57 |
| ciphercast | subfreeze: nice link | 06:58 |
| hwilde | furthur, it doesn't show up by default.. where does it recognize | 06:58 |
| subfreeze | ciphercast: took forever to find a good walkthrough. I'm installing ubuntu now, and it's all working dandy, albeit a bit slower than I'd like. | 06:58 |

| staykovmarin | and installed using apt-get | 06:59 |
| staykovmarin | when i run git it says command not found | 06:59 |
| furthur | hwilde : hmm perhaps there is a special package to have ipod support with rhythmbox | 06:59 |
| subfreeze | apt-get install git | 06:59 |
| joanki | can virtualbox pretty much run EVERY windows program as long as it is small? | 06:59 |
| joanki | i can even run ms word and ms excel? | 06:59 |
| ciphercast | its the software raid | 06:59 |
| furthur | joanki : anything... you are emulating | 06:59 |

| ciphercast | subfreeze: doing raid 1 i presume? | 06:59 |
| furthur | joanki : depending on hardware,... might be slow | 06:59 |
| mikubuntu | further, nope this isn't too long for channel: W: Duplicate sources.list entry http://archive.canonical.com gutsy/partner Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/archive.canonical.com_ubuntu_dists_gutsy_partner_binary-i386_Packages) | 06:59 |
| mikubuntu | W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems | 06:59 |
| subfreeze | ciphercast: Correct. It's a mail server for a small company. I'm ok with slower speeds for reading/writing. | 07:00 |
| ciphercast | not ttl important | 07:00 |
| ciphercast | the data's more important at that point | 07:00 |
| subfreeze | naa, as long as e-mail works and some very small demand websites work, I'll be fine. | 07:00 |
| Fezzler | Help! I have no System>Administration rights in GDM, but I have sudo and can execute Synaptic, etc. from command line??? Fix?? | 07:00 |

| ciphercast | subfreeze: SATA I/II? | 07:24 |
| subfreeze | II | 07:24 |
| KyleS-home | subfreeze, have the drives finished verifying? | 07:25 |
| sinthetek | i found the cause of my problem, heh. my /etc/hosts had 127.0.1.1 as it's second entry | 07:25 |
| Gatton | oh Rick Astley. You were so dreamy. Whatever happened to you | 07:25 |
| subfreeze | KyleS-home: I'm in a finished setup, running TOP with a load average above 2.9 consistant | 07:25 |
| mikubuntu | further, i tried, and terminal says i need superuser privilege, as far as i know, i AM the superuser ... ? | 07:25 |
| KyleS-home | ah... | 07:25 |
| furthur | sudo in front | 07:25 |
| sinthetek | don't know wtf it would affect *incoming* connections from *other* hosts or how it got there | 07:25 |
| SuperQ | subfreeze: is it done rebuilding? | 07:25 |
| SuperQ | subfreeze: cat /proc/mdstat | 07:25 |
| mikubuntu | further, uh, ok | 07:26 |
| ciphercast | subfreeze: what's the specs of the sys? | 07:26 |
| noodles12 | i've installed gutsy and all the plugins and all my .avi files show a black screen and working sound. | 07:26 |
| subfreeze | Ahhhh, it's at 24% building | 07:26 |
| sinthetek | anyway, i thought i'd mention that in case anyone else has problems ith 5 second lag in all incoming connections | 07:26 |
| SuperQ | subfreeze: there ya go | 07:26 |
| subfreeze | high server load due to it building the raid array | 07:26 |
| SuperQ | subfreeze: yep | 07:26 |
| SuperQ | subfreeze: how fast is it building? | 07:26 |
| furthur | alright well im off | 07:26 |
| furthur | good luck people | 07:26 |
| NullName | HELP! I'm having trouble monitoring ALL packets going through my wireless adaptor. I've tried using wireshark, but was wondering if I could monitor a file or something from /dev? Where is my wireless card running? How can I view exactly what is going on behind the scenes? | 07:26 |
| furthur | peace | 07:26 |
| subfreeze | 70mb/s | 07:26 |
| CaptainMorgan | anyone know the name of the specific update package that caused system problems ? | 07:26 |
| SuperQ | subfreeze: damn, not bad | 07:27 |
| subfreeze | SuperQ: 320GB total | 07:27 |
| SuperQ | subfreeze: SATA? | 07:27 |
| subfreeze | SataII | 07:27 |
| wols | NullName: wireshark is the right app to do it. just run it on your wireless interface | 07:27 |
| sinthetek | i may have done something wrong during install/setup but don't know how that could add 'localhost' as 127.0.0.1 and the regular hostname as 127.0.1.1 | 07:27 |
| SuperQ | yea, that's about as fast as I've seen any SATA disk go | 07:27 |
| subfreeze | 70-71mb/s | 07:27 |
| SuperQ | subfreeze: SATA vs SATA2 doesn't matter much for speed | 07:27 |
| subfreeze | SuperQ: 133 vs 150'ish | 07:27 |
| NullName | wols: it's only showing traffic for my network. I need to see traffic for all networks | 07:27 |
| mikubuntu | further, ok, this output: mikubuntu@marybuntu-desktop:~$ sudo dpkg --configure -a | 07:27 |

| mikubuntu | Setting up googleearth-data (4.2.198.2451-0medibuntu4) ... | 07:28 |
| wols | NullName: then your wireshark filter expression is wrong | 07:28 |
| SuperQ | subfreeze: SATA 1 == 150mb/sec, sata 2 == 300mb/sec | 07:28 |
| subfreeze | ahhh, I was off | 07:28 |
| SuperQ | subfreeze: as far as the cable specs go | 07:28 |
| NullName | wols: I don't believe I'm filtering anything. | 07:28 |
| SuperQ | subfreeze: of course, you're limited to the disk speed of about 70 | 07:28 |
| subfreeze | SuperQ: Suck | 07:28 |
| furthur | mikubuntu : should be good now | 07:28 |
| mikubuntu | further, you mean synaptic or google? | 07:29 |
| wols | NullName: then you don't use wireshark either. you always have a filter expression | 07:29 |
| SuperQ | subfreeze: eh, you get what the disk makers can build | 07:29 |
| subfreeze | true | 07:29 |
| NullName | wols: I'll check it out..thanks... | 07:29 |
| SuperQ | subfreeze: best laptop drives I've got do 40MB/sec | 07:29 |

| _Casey_ | i plugged in some speakers earler, now that they are unplugged my sound wont work on my laptop | 07:32 |

| mikubuntu | further, when i open synaptic to google earth there appears a list of apps (i guess main and dependencies?) but when i click on 'installed files' properties i get this: The list of installed files is only available for installed packages | 07:33 |
| Romes | "now that I unplugged my speakers, I cannot get sound to work on my laptop"... have you plugged them back in? :P | 07:33 |
| reportingsjr | Romes: :p I think he means the built in speakers though. | 07:34 |
| _Casey_ | no im on a laptop, but i got some new speakers | 07:35 |
| _Casey_ | and i unplugged them and my sound wont work on the normal speakers | 07:35 |

| subfreeze | newbieee: Depends on your x-windows manager | 07:39 |
| newbieee | i'm using xfce4 | 07:40 |
| subfreeze | Hmmm, anyone know of anything in Ubuntu Server that will keep people from SSH'ing in? | 07:40 |
| subfreeze | newbieee: Dunno, might go look up support for that one | 07:40 |
| matrix | subfreeze: not really,he shoul know your opened port,has a account | 07:40 |
| subfreeze | bah | 07:41 |
| Schmick | subfreeze, ssh is supposed to be a Secure Shell.. so.. if ppl is ssh-in in... well.. they got a user and a password of your box. | 07:41 |
| windoughxp | How do i get ubutuntu to recognize my intel g3100 video card? | 07:41 |
| subfreeze | Schmick: True, which is why I'll limit it to a specific IP address using iptables. | 07:41 |
| Schmick | of course.. | 07:42 |
| subfreeze | I have the port open on my router, pointing to my server, but I am unable to connect to it | 07:42 |
| subfreeze | I am unable to connect VIA SSH to my server from a local machine, telling me it's something with Ubuntu Server not allowing SSH connections. | 07:43 |
| Schmick | hmmm.. telneting shows the port as open?... using port 22 arn't you? | 07:44 |
| fwaokda | how can i remove avant-windows-navigator? i followed a bad tutorial and want to start over at the AVN wiki | 07:44 |

| fwaokda | wols, i installed like this? http://www.ubuntugeek.com/howto-install-avant-window-navgator-in-ubuntu-gutsy-gibbon.html | 07:45 |
| DerangedDingo | fwaokda: sudo apt-get remove --purge avant-window-navigator, if you installed from the repositories | 07:45 |
| subfreeze | 22 is correct | 07:45 |
| fwaokda | not from repositories | 07:45 |
| fwaokda | i dont think | 07:45 |
| subfreeze | try to ssh in, though,and it won't work -- ubuntu isn't allowing it | 07:45 |
| DerangedDingo | ah, the guide installs from bzr source | 07:46 |
| fwaokda | DerangedDingo, ok so that good or bad? | 07:46 |
| Schmick | subfreeze, .. and a normal telnet to port 22?.. I know it won't start a session, but i'll show if the port is open | 07:46 |
| subfreeze | ahhh, I didn't install openssh-server | 07:47 |

| fwaokda | DerangedDingo, if it installs from source then how do i know where it put it so i can uninstall it? | 07:50 |
| DerangedDingo | fwaokda: it's fine. just means it's the most recent version of awn, from the main website. i think you could just overwrite the version of AWN with the version in the repositories by running "sudo apt-get install avant-window-navigator-bzr" and watching what happens | 07:50 |
| subfreeze | how do I uninstall Apache from apt-get? | 07:50 |

| wols | cav3man: you can only use the open driver since fglrx won | 07:58 |
| Schmick | I'll give it a try... .. it uses Mesa3d? | 07:58 |
| MyOriginalAlia1 | A manual install? | 07:58 |
| MyOriginalAlia1 | Anything? | 07:58 |

| bazhang | !es | sancas | 08:12 |
| ubotu | sancas: Si busca ayuda en español por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, allí obtendrá más ayuda. | 08:12 |
| Schmick | correcto sancas | 08:12 |
| bazhang | r0b-: no idea then | 08:12 |
| sancas | no hay nadie | 08:12 |
| leftyfb | r0b, they're not going to help you here either if you don't actually want the help | 08:12 |
| bazhang | sancas this is an English channel | 08:13 |
| Schmick | sancas, .. hablas ingles? | 08:13 |
| sancas | OKey | 08:13 |
| joanki | i typed: cfdisk /dev/hda | 08:13 |
| joanki | and got a fatal error | 08:13 |
| r0b- | i need this http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/gutsy/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/mini.iso | 08:13 |

| boxemall | joanki what does it say? | 08:13 |
| subfreeze | Anyone here ever setup Zimbra before? | 08:13 |
| Schmick | ok.. in english.. | 08:13 |
| boxemall | is it virtual machin or host os? | 08:13 |
| Gatton | joanki, fdisk -l didn't list all your partitions? | 08:14 |
| bazhang | r0b-: someone who lives near you with net access would be a better choice | 08:14 |
| Schmick | sancas, .. reboot.. and write down EXACTLY what error you get on grub. | 08:14 |
| sancas | i will restart it | 08:14 |
| joanki | i get this: FATAL ERROR: Cannot open disk drive | 08:14 |
| Schmick | OK... | 08:14 |
| joanki | Press any key to exit cfdisk | 08:14 |
| leftyfb | bazhang : we already tried helping him in EFnet, he doesn't want help. Only argues | 08:14 |
| bazhang | leftyfb: thanks for the heads up | 08:14 |
| joanki | gatton, it was blank | 08:14 |
| leftyfb | r0b : btw, you're not welcome in #ubuntu on EFnet anymore after your last comment. | 08:14 |
| boxemall | joanki try "sudo su" and then type in your password. | 08:14 |
| r0b- | k | 08:14 |
| zakirs | hi iam unable to use gparted some lock is shown against my drive (i have ubuntu 7.10 installed) | 08:14 |
| HardDisk | :) | 08:14 |
| boxemall | then again try "fdisk -l" | 08:14 |
| leftyfb | <r0b-> ya know fuck this channel Freenode is so much better | 08:14 |
| r0b- | all i wanted is someone to burn that ISO for me | 08:15 |
| joanki | boxemall, there it is | 08:15 |
| joanki | it works now | 08:15 |
| joanki | so i need to be in root to do that? | 08:15 |
| boxemall | oki | 08:15 |
| boxemall | in most cases | 08:15 |
| leftyfb | r0b : go to the store, buy your own god damn cd | 08:15 |
| keram | hey | 08:15 |
| HardDisk | such a lazy bum | 08:15 |
| Gatton | hey r0b newegg has burners for like thirty bucks dude | 08:16 |
| leftyfb | and cheap | 08:16 |
| keram | when i plug in an external monitor and set it up with xrandr it makes hte primary monitor the external one | 08:16 |
| bazhang | leftyfb: just ignore; and please keep the place family-friendly :} | 08:16 |
| pc22 | is there an app where in u can make movie subtitles in ubuntu? | 08:16 |
| keram | is there a way to switch primary with secondary? | 08:16 |
| HardDisk | bazhang, he's a LoCo team leader... | 08:16 |
| leftyfb | sorry bazhang ... it's late he's exhausted my patience tonight. ... going to bed now :) | 08:16 |
| boxemall | still did anyone ever got ubuntu running from usb stick (pendrive)? | 08:16 |
| joanki | weird | 08:16 |
| joanki | i did a ubuntu install | 08:16 |
| joanki | it did not give me a home | 08:16 |
| joanki | it gave root | 08:16 |
| joanki | and swap | 08:16 |
| bazhang | leftyfb: my apologies | 08:16 |
| HardDisk | and he's right on what he's on about. | 08:16 |
| joanki | swap gets 3.6 gigs | 08:16 |
| ronettaja | <bazhang> I don't know how to use amarok | 08:16 |
| joanki | root got everything else | 08:16 |
| joanki | but i wanted a home.... | 08:16 |
| bazhang | HardDisk: I dont doubt it | 08:17 |
| Schmick | pc22, search on sourceforge... there must be one.. | 08:17 |
| boxemall | joanki are u talkin about partitions or folders? | 08:17 |
| pc22 | ok | 08:17 |
| noogen | joanki: unless you setup, the default doesn't setup separate partition for home | 08:17 |
| bazhang | ronettaja: open it and then find the side panel devices; insert iPod and then it should see it | 08:17 |
| boxemall | thats right! it does not setup home as default | 08:17 |
| bazhang | ronettaja: I just got the nano 4G and it works like a charm :} | 08:17 |
| joanki | hm | 08:18 |
| joanki | can i add one NOW, or is it too late? | 08:18 |
| noogen | you can | 08:18 |
| joanki | both boxemall, now i am talking folders | 08:18 |
| joanki | how do i do it | 08:18 |
| Gatton | bazhang, watched any video on it yet? i'm thinking of getting a nano as well | 08:18 |
| noogen | summary - resize your partition, backup your home to somehwere else, create partition from extra space and map it to home | 08:19 |
| bazhang | Gatton: yep--it is sweet--but this is way offtopic :} | 08:19 |
| noogen | copy home back from backup | 08:19 |
| joanki | dang | 08:19 |
| joanki | it might just be easier for me to reinstall | 08:19 |
| joanki | and do it manually | 08:19 |
| Gatton | ummm you know those videos you transferred from UBUNTU ;-) | 08:19 |
| joanki | how important is it that i have home?' | 08:19 |
| joanki | is root good enough? | 08:19 |
| noogen | it's good enough | 08:19 |
| bazhang | Gatton: exactly :} | 08:19 |
| noogen | it's easier if you use another hd as home | 08:19 |
| joanki | but noogen, home is really just like an extra drive.... can think of it as a backup drive separate from the op system, right? | 08:20 |
| joanki | like in windows, usually you have c drive, which is like root | 08:20 |
| joanki | and then maybe an e drive as an extra backup drive | 08:20 |
| joanki | would home be like that?Z | 08:20 |
| noogen | yep | 08:20 |
| joanki | so it's not big deal if i do not have it, right? | 08:20 |
| noogen | yep | 08:20 |
| joanki | after all, if my laptop goes down, it's down | 08:20 |
| joanki | thanks | 08:20 |
| cav3man | joanki, i just rename my home folder mv me bakup and then install and copy stuff i want back into my new home folder | 08:20 |
| joanki | cav3man, sounds like for laptops it wouldn't really matter anyway | 08:21 |
| joanki | for a desktop it would be more oimportant | 08:21 |
| noogen | home is like "C:\Documents and Settings" in Windows | 08:21 |
| joanki | then what is root like, noogen? | 08:21 |
| joanki | if you had to make a comparison | 08:21 |
| noogen | yep | 08:21 |
| joanki | because i like c:\documents.... | 08:21 |
| noogen | if you backup your stuff to a separate hd, then it'll be the same almost | 08:21 |
| joanki | i see | 08:21 |
| joanki | thanks | 08:22 |
| noogen | home is important in unix because it's easier to have multi-user | 08:22 |
| cav3man | i always keep my home on a different partition, that way i can install any ol linux i feel like :} | 08:22 |
| joanki | i see | 08:22 |
| subfreeze | blargh | 08:22 |
| joanki | oh that's a good idea, cav3 | 08:22 |
| noogen | if you have a multi-user server then you want home separate because you don't need to worry about backing it up | 08:22 |
| subfreeze | ok, so I have mail.domain.ca and mail.domain.com and I need all e-mail that goes to both to end up in the same mailbox (someone@mail.domain.ca == someone@mail.domain.com) | 08:22 |
| subfreeze | how? | 08:22 |
| joanki | if i have multiple op systems, it might be useful to have home, too, right? | 08:22 |
| subfreeze | make both go to the same IP address? | 08:22 |
| noogen | yep | 08:22 |
| joanki | because if i had ubuntu and red hat, i would want both to access home | 08:22 |
| CentHOGG | happy holidays | 08:23 |
| joanki | darn!!!! | 08:23 |
| noogen | yeah | 08:23 |
| joanki | i wish i had home! | 08:23 |
| noogen | better to have a separate hd for it anyways | 08:23 |
| joanki | yea true | 08:23 |
| noogen | in unix it's just a mapping (mount) so you can always map something to home | 08:23 |
| noogen | the problem is to move the old stuff from home to there | 08:23 |
| joanki | is this easy to do: summary - resize your partition, backup your home to somehwere else, create partition from extra space and map it to home | 08:24 |
| noogen | so you have to back it up, then remap like I said before | 08:24 |
| genesis | My internet is acting funny... the wireless is still working and all.... but when I look in the ndiswrapper there is now folder for my card but like I said it works | 08:24 |
| joanki | ughhh i might just reinstall | 08:24 |
| joanki | it's late | 08:24 |
| genesis | should I reinstall the file using ndiswrapper? | 08:24 |
| CentHOGG | yeah | 08:24 |
| cav3man | noogen, ya only have to do it once though, and you will be good to go | 08:25 |
| ttt-- | hi, does vlc play xvid videos? | 08:25 |
| noogen | yep | 08:25 |
| Gatton | all day long | 08:25 |
| ttt-- | what can i try if vlc doesnt play this xvid video? | 08:25 |
| cav3man | ttt--, so does mplayer i think | 08:25 |
| CentHOGG | anybody here use that GOM player.. it's pretty ok | 08:26 |
| ttt-- | i tried both :( | 08:26 |
| Slick` | Hello :) | 08:26 |
| noogen | joanski: it's very easy - example - http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/separatehome | 08:26 |
| Slick` | ubuntu is good OS ? | 08:26 |
| cav3man | ttt--, did yu install all the restricted stuff first? | 08:26 |
| noogen | Slick`: you can answer that question yourself | 08:27 |
| Slick` | :)) | 08:27 |
| bazhang | Slick`: this is a support channel | 08:27 |
| CentHOGG | SLick: what os are you comin' from | 08:27 |
| ttt-- | what is restricted stuff? | 08:27 |
| noogen | if you ask it in this room, then you know what's the answer is | 08:27 |
| cav3man | Slick`, if you like gnome then yes! | 08:27 |
| CentHOGG | yeah gnome | 08:27 |
| CentHOGG | never really tried KDE | 08:27 |
| cav3man | ttt--, mediubuntu repository | 08:28 |
| Slick` | and drivers... where from i can download system drivers? | 08:28 |
| wols | Slick`: drivers for what? | 08:28 |
| Slick` | for ubuntu | 08:28 |
| wols | linux kernles come with (almost) all drivers you need | 08:28 |
| Slick` | ohh :) | 08:28 |
| Slick` | good | 08:28 |
| wols | there is rarely something to download and if there is, it's in the ubuntu repositories like any other software | 08:28 |
| wols | e.g. nvidia or ati drivers | 08:29 |
| joanki | i'm installing virtual box to use windows xp ... it's asking me if i want ntfs or fats | 08:29 |
| joanki | anyone know which one i want? | 08:29 |
| CentHOGG | ntfs | 08:29 |
| Slick` | Windows XP sux | 08:29 |
| CentHOGG | ha | 08:29 |
| cav3man | ntfs | 08:29 |
| CentHOGG | fats is the fs before ntfs | 08:29 |
| CentHOGG | like dos and win95 | 08:29 |
| CentHOGG | or a floppy disk | 08:29 |
| Schmick | ttt--, restricted is for apps with no source code.. i.e. ATI drivers... (I got one.. *sob!*).. so.. there will be no help from the community as there is no information on it.... | 08:30 |
| joanki | so i want ntfs | 08:30 |
| joanki | got it | 08:30 |
| CentHOGG | yeah ntfs has support for bigger partitions.. like more than 2gig logicals | 08:31 |
| ken_kissaki | hei... i got same problem also ... but i used envy program | 08:31 |
| aurax | hello, i'm want to install few linux distros on secondary drive, i got ubuntu as my main installation and i want to add another physical drive partitioned for each distro, any good guide? | 08:31 |
| ttt-- | does it matter what video card i have to play xvid's? | 08:31 |
| CentHOGG | but fats is more universal.. good for transfers | 08:31 |
| noogen | i try to stay away from restricted, cause me several bootup failures | 08:32 |
| joanki | noogen, thank you | 08:32 |
| joanki | i really appreciate it | 08:32 |
| noogen | yw | 08:32 |
| joanki | i'm gonna do it like tomorrow | 08:32 |
| joanki | i'm installing xp on my virtual box now | 08:33 |
| joanki | it's awesome you can do that! | 08:33 |
| joanki | i can't believe i have no more xp | 08:33 |
| joanki | i've been a windows fan forever | 08:33 |
| Schmick | ttt--, in fact, yes.. some cards don't support some colorspaces.. such as YUY2, YV12.. or others. soft and card must agree on the colorspace. | 08:33 |
| mempman | does anybody know how i can reload specific modules,.....i try using rmmod "mod_name" but i keep getting module is busy error | 08:34 |
| ttt-- | oh, i see | 08:34 |
| wols | mempman: use modprobe -r | 08:34 |
| wols | mempman: and you of course mustnt use the device the module services. what module is it? | 08:34 |
| cav3man | i have been into xp for games, but i rarely play games though | 08:34 |
| mempman | cav3man: same error | 08:34 |
| mempman | device is busy | 08:34 |
| Schmick | ttt--, mplayer supports a broad range of colorspaces and accelerations | 08:34 |
| joanki | cant u play games with virtualbox? | 08:34 |

| joanki | alright time for this girl to go to bed | 08:35 |
| joanki | nite and thx | 08:35 |
| bazhang | !wine | joanki | 08:35 |
| ubotu | joanki: WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information, and see !AppDB for application compatibility. | 08:35 |
| Schmick | joanki, there is no 3d acceleration while virtualizing.. so .. if game requires direct access to 3d capabilites of the card.. you might be in trouble. | 08:35 |
| tehm0nk | what is the file browser called in ubuntu? | 08:35 |
| mempman | wols: its my soundcore | 08:35 |

| bazhang | nautilus tehm0nk | 08:36 |
| Schmick | tehm0nk, .. it¡s called Nautilus | 08:36 |
| cav3man | mempman, try blacklisting the module and rebooting | 08:36 |
| noogen | gnomeboy: there's common problem with lcd, try booting without splash | 08:36 |
| mempman | cav3man: well i know a reboot will do it but, i jsut want to reload module without a reboot | 08:36 |
| gnomeboy | im on a crt | 08:36 |
| wols | noogen: disable all soundcard use and use modrprobe -r | 08:36 |
| Belkinzed | is there a way to Extract unallocated blocks from a disk? | 08:37 |
| mempman | wols: how do i disable soundcard? | 08:37 |
| r0b- | alright | 08:38 |
| r0b- | i have ano idea | 08:38 |
| r0b- | an | 08:38 |
| wols | mempman: make sure nothing is using its devices | 08:38 |
| wols | Belkinzed: extract how? | 08:38 |
| Belkinzed | wols: extract to some other drive | 08:38 |
| wols | sure, with dd | 08:39 |
| mempman | wols: im sure nothin is using it, but i keep getting the same error | 08:39 |
| cav3man | mempman, rmmod is not working? | 08:39 |
| wols | but why would you want to do it? | 08:39 |
| mempman | cav#man: i keep getting "device busy" error | 08:39 |
| mempman | but its not busy at all | 08:39 |
| wols | mempman: lsmod. other modules use soundcore, remove them first | 08:39 |
| Belkinzed | wols: what? | 08:39 |
| wols | Belkinzed: why would you want to "extract" it? | 08:40 |

| bazhang | Milotin: repeating it here will not get answered more quickly | 08:50 |
| tehm0nk | is there a way to throttle my upload speed system wide in ubuntu? | 08:51 |
| AxeManKevin | [ soaks in the comments ] - Thank you everyone for your input :) | 08:51 |
| Gatton | AxeManKevin, next time you're here we'll /version you to see what you decided on ;-) | 08:51 |
| bazhang | tehm0nk: over a network, or just a single computer? | 08:51 |
| ronettaja | how will I mount my ipod :$ | 08:52 |
| noogen | i'm on bitchx | 08:52 |
| aurax | anyone? | 08:52 |
| AxeManKevin | Gatton: heh, that doesn't hurt, does it? | 08:52 |
| noogen | through ssh on my xp | 08:52 |
| Gatton | not if we take turns ;-) | 08:52 |
| noogen | ubuntu has bitchx through apt-get hehe | 08:52 |
| Fezzler | why have I lost ability to run System > Administration tools? I have sudo? I'm in sudoers and group??? | 08:52 |
| Gatton | mmm yes let's get that bitchx on here | 08:52 |
| cav3man | tehm0nk, it mainly depends on your isp, usually has slower uploads unless you pay extra. | 08:53 |
| Fezzler | please help I'm very confused | 08:53 |
| bazhang | ronettaja: be sure to open amarok first, then insert ipod; in devices it should show up | 08:53 |
| Fezzler | bazhang: I've lost rights or permission to User and Groups | 08:54 |
| Flannel | Fezzler: Are you in the admin group? | 08:55 |
| cav3man | ronettaja, i have a walkman, and just plug it in, it shows up as a drive, and I drag files or directories over to it, and they are magically ready to play | 08:55 |
| tehm0nk | well the reason i'm asking is because i'm downloading the wow client which is like 3.5 gb... | 08:55 |
| Fezzler | Flannel: Thank goodness. Yes! | 08:55 |
| Flannel | Fezzler: type 'groups' in ther terminal, see if you're in admin | 08:55 |
| tehm0nk | and it's eating all my BW for uploading | 08:55 |
| fwaokda | how do i change the font color on my menu bar? | 08:55 |
| LimCore | I downloaded buttload of packages, they are in /var probably, how to give them to other ubuntu (same version/arch)? (to not waste bandwitch) | 08:56 |
| Fezzler | Flannel: Yes | 08:56 |
| anathematic | how do i apply permissions to subdirectories? | 08:56 |
| tehm0nk | i know from experience my connection (for torrents) doesn't like to have the upload wide open | 08:56 |
| Flannel | LimCore: copy them from /var/cache/apt (I think thats where they are) to /var/cache/apt of the other computer | 08:56 |
| fwaokda | "buttload" is such a ghey term | 08:56 |
| Fezzler | Flannel: And I'm in /etc/sudoers and /etc/group | 08:56 |
| Flannel | Fezzler: and sudo works? for regular stuff? | 08:56 |
| bazhang | fwaokda: please stop | 08:56 |
| ronettaja | bazhang: it does not work. amarok does not find my iPod | 08:56 |
| Fezzler | yup | 08:56 |
| noogen | want me to say stuff it in dey butt and take it over to the other ubuntu | 08:57 |
| fwaokda | bazhang, ? | 08:57 |
| cav3man | anathematic, chown hR | 08:57 |
| Fezzler | Flannel: yes, I'm confused | 08:57 |
| anathematic | cav3man: thanks | 08:57 |
| fwaokda | oh my bad keep forgetting how pg this room is :( sry | 08:57 |
| cav3man | anathematic, chown -hR will get subdirectories in subdirectories | 08:57 |
| Flannel | Fezzler: Try opening a terminal, typing "gksu nautilus" and see what happens | 08:57 |
| LimCore | Flannel: mhm.. and is there some automatic solution for future, if I have say 10 boxes.. perhaps some proxy or something | 08:57 |
| bazhang | ronettaja: hmm that is odd; you have it inserted and then you open amarok? | 08:57 |
| Milotin | i can`t boot to my user session ( the Desktop interfacesc ). I can`t boot to the console. When booting i got this error : kinit: name_to_dev (/dev/disk/by-uuid/2d44c944-73f5-49e8-8957....)=sda8(8,8) | 08:57 |

| Milotin | kinit: No resume image, doing normal bot | 08:58 |
| Milotin | can someone help me to solve the problem ? | 08:58 |
| noogen | i don't think it's a problem | 08:58 |
| LimCore | Milotin: you wait, wait, and nothing more happens? | 08:58 |
| ronettaja | first I opened amarok and then i connected my ipod | 08:58 |
| Fezzler | gksu: error while loading shared libraries: libgtop-2.0.so.7: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory | 08:58 |
| Milotin | well i can login to the console | 08:58 |
| Milotin | but that`s all | 08:58 |
| LimCore | Fezzler: reinstall | 08:58 |
| Flannel | LimCore: yes, check out apt-proxy | 08:58 |
| LimCore | Milotin: so X are not working | 08:58 |
| bazhang | ronettaja: and then you looked under devices? | 08:58 |
| Milotin | no | 08:59 |
| === macd_ is now known as macd | ||
| Fezzler | Flannel? | 08:59 |
| ronettaja | yep | 08:59 |
| ronettaja | there is nothing under devices | 08:59 |
| Milotin | and when i use : startX it send me in a root session similar with Safe Mode from Windows | 08:59 |
| LimCore | Milotin: the X stoped working | 08:59 |
| LimCore | tehn | 08:59 |
| threefcata | hi, is there a place where i can find the document on what each script in ubuntu does? | 09:00 |
| LimCore | Milotin: /etc/init.d/gdm stop and then the same but start at end | 09:00 |
| cav3man | ronettaja, do you have to put it into file transfer mode? | 09:00 |
| Flannel | Fezzler: Uh, thats an odd so to be looking for, but, try installing libgtop2-dev | 09:00 |
| Fezzler | Flannel: Any ideas? For example, I can run synaptic from Terminal, but not GNOME | 09:00 |
| Milotin | it says there's no such file or directory | 09:00 |
| Prometheus | Hello there | 09:00 |
| threefcata | hi, is there a place where i can find the document on what each script in ubuntu does? | 09:00 |
| bazhang | ronettaja: have you activated it first via iTunes? | 09:00 |
| Prometheus | Does anyone know of a work around from OSS in teamspeak? | 09:00 |
| LimCore | Milotin: /etc/init.d/kdm then, and stop then start | 09:00 |
| cav3man | ronettaja, i dont have an ipod so i dont know | 09:00 |
| ronettaja | no i haven't | 09:00 |
| Flannel | threefcata: `man [command]` | 09:01 |
| Fezzler | Flannel: what's the command line to install libgtop2-dev | 09:01 |
| Milotin | and if that doesn`t work ? | 09:01 |
| Flannel | Fezzler: sudo apt-get install libgtop2-dev | 09:01 |
| bazhang | ronettaja: aha | 09:01 |
| LimCore | Prometheus: why u dont use alsa but old oss? | 09:01 |
| Milotin | cause i`ll have to quit windows to boot Ubuntu | 09:01 |
| LimCore | Fezzler: try also the same but without -dev | 09:01 |
| Prometheus | LimCore, teamspeak is OSS by default | 09:01 |
| LimCore | Milotin: then install kdm or gdm and run that | 09:01 |
| Prometheus | OSS is evil | 09:01 |
| bazhang | Milotin: listen to him and give it a try | 09:01 |
| ronettaja | should I try to activate my iPod? | 09:01 |
| LimCore | Milotin: it should show a graphic login | 09:02 |
| ronettaja | via iTunes | 09:02 |
| threefcata | Flannel, thx but i want find what are the scripts that control default windows manager | 09:02 |
| bazhang | ronettaja: you need to do that first | 09:02 |
| Prometheus | LimCore, I'm trying to get it to use alsa, but i don't know how | 09:02 |
| ronettaja | :) | 09:02 |
| LimCore | Milotin: then, you can also CHANGE SESSION to kde or gnome or something else... one should work | 09:02 |
| threefcata | Flannel, not the other way round | 09:02 |
| Milotin | well what i have to loose anyway | 09:02 |
| Flannel | LimCore: there is no non -dev package | 09:02 |
| bazhang | Milotin: exactly | 09:02 |
| Milotin | and how do i change the session ? :P | 09:02 |
| noogen | thing is, i get the same message as Milotin but everything is working fine, i assume it just trying to resume but since I reboot and not suspend, there's nothing to resume | 09:02 |
| pg | I can't make Linux automatically establish a connection by dhcp when I boot. Ndiswrapper is inserted, but I have to run dhclient manually. dmesg output is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49380/ | 09:02 |
| Fezzler | Flannel: Done | 09:02 |
| Flannel | threefcata: the default session is set by GDM or KDM, in those configs, or perhaps in your user configs you might be able to select. Why do you need to know? | 09:03 |
| E-mu | Is the dell 1505 wireless card working un Ubuntu 7.10? I believe its the 4358 chipset and its fairly new | 09:03 |
| Flannel | Fezzler: And then does gksu work now? | 09:03 |
| noogen | pg, have you check the link i msged you? | 09:03 |
| lonejack | hi, I've the problem on shutdown. Many devices USB devs remain switched in on. So it seems a powerdown not a shutdown, my ver is a gutsy 7.10 64bit.. | 09:03 |
| Fezzler | Flannel: we'll see | 09:03 |
| LimCore | Milotin: there was a bug in GNOME - gnome always fails to start up for me; If it is the case, install kde or something (icewm) instead, and use this as SESSION (on grahoical login you can choose somewhere). if it was the problem, then report the bug on page http://launchpad.net/ | 09:03 |
| LimCore | Flannel: ah ok | 09:03 |
| Belkinzed | how do i set mount points? | 09:04 |
| bazhang | !mount | 09:04 |
| ubotu | Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted (also "man mkfs" for formatting) - Mounting partitions in Gnome under Dapper: System -> Administration -> Disks - For Edgy, see !fstab and !DiskMounter | 09:04 |

| Fezzler | Flannel: >>gksu: error while loading shared libraries: libgtop-2.0.so.7: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory | 09:04 |
| noogen | i don't have to use ndiswrapper | 09:04 |
| Fezzler | Flannel: Reboot required? | 09:04 |
| Milotin | well i can`t install as soon as it boot only to the console | 09:04 |
| Milotin | i can`t connect to the internet | 09:04 |
| LimCore | Fezzler: report that as a bug.. unless you broke it mnaually, btw | 09:05 |
| threefcata | Flannel, just want to try to set compiz instead of metacity as the default window manager, i mean start compiz right away, not first metacity then compiz. | 09:05 |
| Flannel | Fezzler: shouldnt be, no. | 09:05 |
| CO_panggil | gf | 09:05 |
| Belkinzed | hey Flannel, it's be Algo | 09:05 |
| Belkinzed | it's me* | 09:05 |
| bazhang | CO_panggil: you have a question? | 09:05 |
| Fezzler | Flannel: I'm confused | 09:05 |
| LimCore | how to run COMPIZ? with compiz-fussion the kde is running on top of it or what? and how to have the 3d cube desktops and other stuff | 09:05 |
| === CO_panggil is now known as gay_prob | ||
| Flannel | Fezzler: What version of ubuntu are you running? | 09:06 |
| Belkinzed | bazhang: I have a question | 09:06 |
| E-mu | who is the wireless king here on Ubunut 7.10? | 09:06 |
| Fezzler | Flannel: 7.10 | 09:06 |
| Belkinzed | emo_ninja: help.ubuntu.com would be your source | 09:06 |
| Flannel | threefcata: Ah. Right, you should ask in #compiz-fusion, theyll have a better chance of knowing what to do | 09:06 |
| * LimCore eyeballs @ gay_prob | 09:06 | |
| bazhang | E-mu: he's on vacation :} | 09:06 |
| noogen | hehe | 09:06 |
| LimCore | lol emo_ninja | 09:06 |
| ronettaja | bazhang: "sudo apt-get install itunes"? | 09:07 |
| E-mu | ah :p why do he go on vacation at a time like this? | 09:07 |
| bazhang | ronettaja: sadly no :{ | 09:07 |
| threefcata | Flannel, ok i'll try that.. | 09:07 |
| Guest16155 | hello, i have ubuntu desktop 64 bit on my computer, and i have 3 users account (admins) , when i log with user1 and try to write/create files/folders on /home/user2 i get error msg permission denied ? | 09:07 |
| Flannel | Fezzler: Oh, sorry. Try installing libgtop2-7 | 09:07 |
| bazhang | E-mu: just kidding; what is your question? | 09:07 |
| E-mu | ah ok | 09:08 |
| Flannel | Guest16155: Just because they have the ability to sudo (theyre admins) doesn't mean they can do anything by default | 09:08 |
| ronettaja | bazhang: then how? | 09:08 |
| Fezzler | Flannel: >>libgtop2-7 is already the newest version. | 09:08 |
| E-mu | bazhang I haev a dual boot Fedora 8 and the better flavor of linux Mandriva 2008 one. Fedora 8 is not supporting my 1505 Dell wireles card which is the 4358 chipset and is relativley new | 09:08 |
| Fezzler | Flannel: Isn't this something? | 09:08 |
| E-mu | I don';t want to use ndsiwrpaper | 09:08 |
| E-mu | Is Ubunut 7.10 supporting it | 09:09 |
| pg | noogen: Yes, but I'm not sure how to use it. | 09:09 |
| Guest16155 | Flannel: but i am using the main user account (admin) why i cant write files/folders in other users accounts such /home/user2 ? | 09:09 |
| Flannel | Fezzler: try reinstalling it, sudo apt-get install --reinstall libgtop2-7 | 09:09 |
| E-mu | I want to remove mandriva and put ubunut 7.10 in its place | 09:09 |
| cav3man | Guest16155, it's called security | 09:09 |
| === gay_prob is now known as co_arab | ||
| Flannel | Guest16155: because there is no "admin" account. Only accounts that can use sudo. You'd have to use sudo to be able to write to their homedirs. Since theyre only writable by that particular user | 09:10 |
| lonejack | hi, I've a problem on shutdown. Many devices USB devs remain switched in on. So it seems a powerdown not a shutdown, my ver is a gutsy 7.10 64bit.. Somebody know how to solve? Thank you | 09:10 |
| Flannel | Guest16155: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions | 09:10 |
| Flannel | !sudo | Guest16155 | 09:10 |
| ubotu | Guest16155: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information. | 09:10 |
| Flannel | Guest16155: that page might also be of interest | 09:10 |
| pg | noogen: I think it suggested restarting NetworkManager as process to see its output. I haven't tried that. | 09:11 |
| Benalex | Hello all, How can I install KDE from live CD session? | 09:11 |
| Flannel | Benalex: you'll need the Kubuntu desktop CD | 09:11 |
| noogen | yeah it suggest to turn off networkmanager daemon | 09:11 |
| Guest16155 | Flannel: can i use the chmod command to change this ? | 09:11 |
| E-mu | bazhang either way Ubuntu is going on partition 2 or actually the second hard drive and removing mandriva 2008. but anyhow do you know if its supported yet? | 09:11 |
| Flannel | Guest16155: Yes, but you dont want to. What are you trying to do ultimately anyway? | 09:11 |
| Fezzler | Flannel: You da man! That did it. What is libgtop? What does it do? How did I screw it up? | 09:11 |
| ronettaja | how can I install itunes on my 7.10 ubuntu? | 09:11 |
| Benalex | Flannel: Can't I do it from Ubuntu Desktop DVD? | 09:11 |
| Flannel | Fezzler: no idea, and I dont know. | 09:11 |
| Fezzler | Flannel: :) | 09:12 |
| Flannel | Benalex: Uh, does the DVD have both? I know it originally did, does it still? | 09:12 |
| Benalex | Flannel: I don't know, But I think so... I don't know how to tell | 09:12 |
| Flannel | Benalex: let me look | 09:12 |
| antonio_ | ciao | 09:12 |
| antonio_ | una moglie bellissima | 09:12 |

| Fezzler | Thanks Flannel! I've been working on this for hours. | 09:13 |
| ronettaja | thx. bye | 09:13 |
| Guest16155 | Flannel: i am trying to perl script whice making static calculations , and save them in other users accounts on the desktop (students accounts), so what is the easy way to let me write files in other users account ? chmod ? | 09:13 |
| Flannel | Benalex: I don't see it. You could install a command line only install, and then simply install kubuntu-desktop ontop of it | 09:13 |
| fwaokda | is it possible to set a different background to each virtual desktop i have? | 09:14 |
| bazhang | E-mu: so you dont yet have an ubuntu install? :} | 09:14 |
| Flannel | Benalex: you dont really lose anything, since those packages (or most of them) all have updates anyway. So you wont have to download more than you normally would to be up to date | 09:14 |
| E-mu | I am going to install it | 09:14 |
| E-mu | but wanted heads up | 09:14 |
| Benalex | Flannel: you mean install Gnome, then KDE on top of it??.. won't this corrupt anything or get me into hassels? | 09:14 |
| Flannel | Guest16155: Is this perl script going to be run automatically withcron? | 09:14 |
| bazhang | E-mu: you mean the wireless broadcom card? | 09:14 |
| E-mu | yes | 09:15 |
| Flannel | Benalex: no, you'd install Ubuntu (the distro) without a GUI at all (Without Ubuntu (the DE) or Kubuntu (the DE) | 09:15 |
| cav3man | Guest16155, i think it would be possable if you were the first user created on the machine, it seems like you would be the poweruser of the machine and would be able to have special rights, see /etc/group | 09:15 |
| E-mu | 505 os the modle 4358 bcm chipset | 09:15 |
| Benalex | Flannel: I got it ... Thank You! | 09:15 |
| E-mu | sorry 1505 dell part | 09:15 |
| E-mu | I was told it fedora group it was way to new to be supported yet | 09:15 |

| E-mu | that sound like a copout to me | 09:16 |
| Flannel | Benalex: there should be, at the boot menu, a way to install via command line, which is the alternate CD method (using debian-installer) and then also a way through that to install a "server" or "command line system" | 09:16 |
| E-mu | hang on a sec | 09:16 |
| pg | OK, I have an even bigger problem. When I use the wireless card, my computer periodically freezed for 2-5 seconds. No input or output. Then /var/log/syslog is appended with the line "kernel: [ 4361.588000] ndiswrapper (miniport_reset:72): wlan0 is being reset" | 09:16 |
| Benalex | Flannel: You are definitely right | 09:16 |
| hairulfr | Benalex: What about Kubuntu? Haven't been paying attention though | 09:16 |
| gnomeboy | im not sure what i did but all my windows no longer has tat panel for the minimize,max,close buttons | 09:16 |
| noogen | <Flannel> Benalex: I don't see it. You could install a command line only | 09:16 |
| noogen | woopse | 09:17 |
| Flannel | Benalex: if theyre going to be run like that, they'll be run as root anyway, and you'll be able to save to their homedirs. Just make sure you create them with the proper permissions, or they'll be owned by root, even though theyre on the users desktops | 09:17 |

| noogen | sorry | 09:17 |
| Benalex | hairulfr: I just don't wanna do more downloads , and do more effort in trying to boot an image ISO file from harddrive... I have Ubuntu DVD, so why not doing it from here :) | 09:18 |
| pg | It seems like a driver issue, but the Ubuntu list of wifi cards says this model should work with the Windows driver and ndiswrapper | 09:18 |
| fwaokda | is it possible to set a different background to each of my workspaces? | 09:18 |
| gnomeboy | im not sure what i did but all my windows no longer has tat panel for the minimize,max,close buttons | 09:18 |
| hairulfr | Benalex: I'd just install KDE the out Gnome, I guess :) | 09:18 |
| Khisanth | fwaokda: depends on your window manager | 09:19 |
| E-mu | actually it sais unkow device and its 4328 not 58 have no ideaa why they told me it was a 58 | 09:19 |
| E-mu | lspci sias 4328 so thats the chipset right? | 09:19 |
| fwaokda | Khisanth, umm i think its just the one in gutsy | 09:19 |
| E-mu | http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/b43 sais my card is unsupported | 09:21 |
| E-mu | yet its 100% supported right out of a fresh install of OSX I don't get it | 09:21 |
| E-mu | I just googled search and even in ubuntu 7.10 they had to use a ndiswrapper | 09:22 |
| E-mu | http://www.micahcarrick.com/11-04-2007/bcm4328-wep-gutsy-ubuntu.html | 09:22 |
| E-mu | so I am out of luck for now | 09:23 |
| hairulfr | Benalex: I've had both gnome, kde, enlightenment and others, all that messes up is a lot more apps in your menus | 09:23 |
| hairulfr | Benalex: At the same time, that is | 09:23 |
| Benalex | hairulfr: I don't want to get used to Gnome, so when working on KDE to not be handycaped | 09:24 |
| zubuntu | um i have no programs in my menu bar, and i cannot launch the menu editor | 09:24 |
| cav3man | zubuntu, try sudo update-menu | 09:24 |
| noogen | E-mu: try the bcm43xx-fwcutter first in gutsy - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx/Gutsy | 09:25 |
| hairulfr | Benalex: Doesn't make a lick a' sense to me | 09:25 |
| noogen | i have bcm4318, fwcutter works great | 09:25 |
| noogen | running 64bit Gutsy | 09:25 |
| E-mu | i did the harware gets put into network configurator just fine and when I add the device it adds it but when I try to activateit it sais no card present | 09:25 |
| zubuntu | cav3man, command not found | 09:26 |
| zubuntu | i will try to install | 09:26 |
| E-mu | I used the b34 firmware not the bcm one | 09:26 |

| cav3man | zubuntu, try sudo update-menus | 09:26 |
| E-mu | there are two b34 and a bcm on3 | 09:26 |
| zubuntu | same output | 09:26 |
| E-mu | ok fedora listed tow of them ubuntu link you gave me just lisits the bcm firmware | 09:27 |
| cav3man | zubuntu, hmm, ive got a /usr/bin/update-menus | 09:27 |
| E-mu | weird | 09:27 |
| noogen | pg: first what wireless card do you have? 2nd, it might be conflicting with something like the usb | 09:28 |

| wols | LimCore: do you run 64bit ubuntu? | 09:35 |
| rbrtw | hi, I'm using gutsy, I had compiz + fglrx working fine but video playback was a bit choppy sometimes, I tried installing the newer drivers from the ATI site, but they didn | 09:35 |
| LimCore | wols: yea | 09:35 |
| optiq | hello can anyone help me with a strange connection ? | 09:35 |
| rbrtw | hi, I'm using gutsy, I had compiz + fglrx working fine but video playback was a bit choppy sometimes, I tried installing the newer drivers from the ATI site, but they didn't work. I've now downgraded to the officially supported drivers but compiz is running very very slowl | 09:35 |
| wols | LimCore: then you need either a 32bit firefox or nspluginwrapper | 09:35 |
| rbrtw | y | 09:35 |
| LimCore | wols: damn this gets annoying :[ | 09:35 |
| rbrtw | I've tried purging and reinstalling everything I can think of but no dice | 09:35 |
| AndrewM | If i run 64 bit ubuntu, will ordinary .deb packages work for me, or do i need a different type? | 09:35 |
| LimCore | wols: can I easly run 32 bit firefox as a "separate application" (the doesnt interfear with my normal firefox) | 09:36 |
| wols | AndrewM: .debs for 64bit will work and are used by ubuntu amd64 | 09:36 |
| Flannel | AndrewM: you need to make sure theyre compiled for your arch. But yes, theyre still .deb | 09:36 |
| wols | LimCore: you can, but not easily | 09:36 |
| * LimCore bitchslaps his bank for requiring java | 09:36 | |

| Alp- | i want to configure the diskcheck feature of ubuntu. i'm running a dual boot system with win xp and i use an ext3 driver to access my linux partitions in windows. but if windows crashes, my mounted partitions contain possible data erros and need to be checked at linux startup | 09:38 |
| cav3man | AndrewM, uname -a | 09:38 |
| AndrewM | cav3man , do i assume the i686 is mr architecture | 09:39 |
| rbrtw | hi, compiz is running really slowly | 09:39 |
| Alp- | this is quite annoying because one of the partitions is very big and it takes 20-30 minutes to check. is it possible to tell ubuntu to check the disk _after_ starting the x server and gnome? | 09:39 |
| wols | Alp-: it will be checked automatically then sinec it's unclean | 09:39 |
| rbrtw | but I appear to have direct rendering | 09:39 |
| === KnifeHat_ is now known as KnifeHat | ||
| Alp- | wols: yep, thats the problem | 09:39 |
| Flannel | Alp-: `sudo touch /forcefsck` and reboot, and you'll fsck on boot. Or in windows, just create the /forcefsck file in the root of your root partition | 09:39 |
| hairulfr | rbrtw: Like lag slowly or slowmotion like slowly? | 09:39 |
| wols | Alp-: that's no problem, that's good | 09:39 |

| AndrewM | thanks for all your help | 09:40 |
| rbrtw | compiz was running great, I upgraded to ATI's new drivers which didn't work, downgraded, now it's not working | 09:40 |

| stefano | rbrtw, did you try "ati" as a driver? (setting driver "ati" in your xconf) | 09:43 |
| pg | E-mu: then edit /etc/modprobe.conf and remove the line for that driver | 09:43 |
| rbrtw | stefano: my system was running great using fglrx previously, I just want to get it back to that state | 09:43 |
| E-mu | ok but the alias is still there how do I remove that? from /etc/modprobe.conf or will rmmod remove the alias as well or do I have to manually edit the modprobe.conf file and remove it? | 09:44 |

| rbrtw | am I allowed to paste two lines of log? | 09:44 |

| E-mu | whast the command to remove the driver? rmmod -f and "drivermodulename"? | 09:45 |
| stefano | rbrtw, seem like there is some sort of bug in this particular fglrx driver | 09:45 |
| rbrtw | wols: what should it say? | 09:45 |
| stefano | rbrtw, maybe some slightly older version would do it, could be there has been an update in the meantime | 09:45 |

| rbrtw | any clues? | 09:49 |
| stefano | rbrtw, i see, anyways, you should try another driver. doesnt have to be the ati, but another version of fglrx, maybe you try a manual install of it from the ati website, that could help. otherwise it's something else troubling your graphics card | 09:49 |

| rbrtw | the officially supported ones were working for me :( | 09:51 |

| stefano | optiq, wireshark need to run as root. press alt+f2 and type "gksu wireshark" | 09:54 |
| belkinzed | stefano: and i can't boot into it | 09:54 |
| Moult | cav3man: when i inserted the USB connection to my printer it was automatically installed i think | 09:54 |
| optiq | i ran it as root but i dont see anything particularly going to or from the strange connection | 09:54 |
| cav3man | look under printers and see | 09:54 |
| hairulfr | optiq: Do you get the hits often | 09:54 |
| stefano | belkinzed, but linux works fine and windows was on the same harddrive right? | 09:54 |
| optiq | nah i think my router's firewall is catching it | 09:55 |
| stefano | optiq, did you choose the right interface? | 09:55 |
| optiq | yes. | 09:55 |
| stefano | optiq, normally when you browse the web, a LOT of pachages should be captured | 09:55 |
| belkinzed | stefano: wrong, ubuntu doesn't work, cause Mbr overwrote grub, and windows won't boot, they're on separte drives, and i'm running off live session | 09:55 |
| hairulfr | optiq: Also, it might be identifying normal activity as "attacks" | 09:55 |
| bazhang | Moult: connected how? | 09:55 |
| Moult | cav3man: yes it is there...oh, i have not made it the default printer. let me check if that is causing it. | 09:55 |
| Moult | bazhang: via USB. | 09:55 |
| optiq | but i had nothing going on | 09:55 |
| optiq | and its always there | 09:55 |
| stefano | belkinzed, sorry now idea about that, the only thing thad would come to my mind in that situation is reinstalling ubuntu | 09:56 |
| Moult | bazhang: ok working now thanks anyway! | 09:56 |
| rbrtw | what package installs /etc/xdg/compiz/compiz-manager? | 09:56 |
| belkinzed | stefano: that won't fix anything | 09:56 |
| Moult | cav3man: Yes, that was what caused it! Thanks! | 09:56 |
| bazhang | Moult: good news! | 09:56 |
| stefano | sry | 09:56 |
| belkinzed | it's okay | 09:56 |
| optiq | stefano is there a way to link a particular connection with a service whether its actively connected or just listening? | 09:56 |
| cav3man | hooorrayy! | 09:56 |
| stefano | optiq, explain that, i dont think i understand the question | 09:56 |
| Fisher | any ide of why ubuntu does not shutdown on an old p2 board?? | 09:57 |
| optiq | theres a strange connection showing up under the status section in firestarter but it has no service listed | 09:57 |

| uchazco | kwaj - Start a sudo nautilus (Alt+F2, gksudo nautilus) | 09:59 |
| stefano | kwaj, for temporary tasks you can run nautilus (the file browser) as root, with alt+f2 "gksu nautilus" | 09:59 |
| stefano | kwaj, however, you should never log in as rood or even work as root when not nessecaryy | 10:00 |
| belkinzed | stefano: i can't find anything | 10:00 |

| dolphin_noel | this simple block and not go to the terminal :x | 10:16 |
| hairulfr | dolphin_noel: You press ctrl + alt + f2 to get a new session (terminal) | 10:16 |
| bazhang | dolphin_noel: would another language channel more suit you? | 10:17 |
| dolphin_noel | it works thank you very much lets me try this :x | 10:17 |
| hairulfr | dolphin_noel: It's your gfx-card that doesn't work with xserver, as far as I can tell. Gutsy has some problems regarding this. I've had them with a widely supported card. No problem | 10:18 |

| presto101 | i installed new nvidia drivers and in the nvidia settings on my color depth its set to 24 is that right or should it be 32? | 10:35 |
| MrHippocampus | presto101: 24 is normal | 10:35 |
| presto101 | btw i dont see the option for 32 | 10:35 |
| presto101 | ok good and thanks mrhippocampus | 10:36 |
| presto101 | i used envy to grab the new nvidia drivers | 10:37 |
| presto101 | i borked my video setup but got it fixed so now im parniod as i get things set up | 10:37 |
| vb | I am on laptop running Gutsy. My internet connection automatically drops after the laptop sits idle for a while :( | 10:37 |
| bazhang | !envy | presto101 | 10:37 |
| ubotu | presto101: envy is not needed or supported. Use the Resticted Manager to install binary drivers and see « /msg ubotu binarydriver » | 10:37 |
| MrHippocampus | presto101: basically 32 and 24 give you exactly the same amount of colour, the spare 8 bits on 32 dont really do much (when it comes to montiors that is) | 10:38 |
| lordi | hi, my system (7.10) keeps locking itself up, like once a day. it looks like something is eating all the mem, or is 512 mb just not enough for 7.10? do you have any hints how do investigate? | 10:38 |
| lordi | also, my swap partition doesn't show up in "df -H" | 10:39 |
| lordi | is that normal? | 10:39 |

| lordi | bucky, ok | 10:40 |
| bucky | lordi, you can run top to see if swap is used | 10:41 |
| lordi | its not used | 10:41 |
| lordi | oh, yea, "cached", maybe it is | 10:42 |
| bucky | lordi, if you running a fast machine probably dont need to use it | 10:42 |
| bucky | im running 128MB laptop 256MHZ ,use it all the time.. | 10:42 |
| MrHippocampus | lordi: "cached" isnt swap | 10:42 |

Then /var/log/syslog is appended with the line "kernel: [ 4361.588000] ndiswrapper (miniport_reset:72): wlan0 is being reset". Ubuntu's wifi page says the Windows driver and ndiswrapper should work for this card. | 10:45 |
| lordi | maybe thats the problem here, thanks I'll check it out | 10:45 |
| presto101 | mrhippocampus thanks for the info one other question, with the new driver my glxgears fps is lower but my nexuiz benchmark fps is higher any ideas? | 10:46 |

| kurt | is there an app that is very close to msn for linux (maybe like windows so i can play those little games too) ? | 10:47 |
| bucky | kurt, you mean amsn? | 10:48 |
| Tobias92 | Dear ubuntu people, I want to compile something and it seems I need "scons" for that. However, the script keeps complaining it can't find "libgtkmm" in the pkg_config_path variable. How can I fix this? | 10:48 |
| bazhang | amsn? | 10:48 |
| kurt | bucky: is that the closest to msn ? | 10:48 |
| kurt | thanks for answering : is amsn the closest ? | 10:48 |
| MrHippocampus | Tobias92: install libgtkmm-dev | 10:48 |
| Tobias92 | MrHippocampus, I tried that, it does not work :s | 10:48 |
| bucky | kurt, i dont use msn...but amsn is should be close, try it.. | 10:49 |
| presto101 | mrhippocampus thats what id heard concerning glxgears i just use it to get a general idea of how things are | 10:49 |
| kurt | bucky: thanks | 10:49 |
| MrHippocampus | Tobias92: do you have build-essential installed? | 10:49 |
| Tobias92 | MrHippocampus, I do according to apt-get | 10:49 |
| dn4 | Is f(t)=x^2+t^2+(16); composed of fractal geometry? | 10:49 |
| bazhang | dn4: not in this channel | 10:50 |
| MrHippocampus | presto101: same here, its so simple though that anything can cause a random fps drop in it | 10:50 |
| lordi | wow! swap not works! seems like the partition wasn't formatted as swap fs! thanks guys... | 10:50 |
| lordi | now* | 10:50 |
| MrHippocampus | Tobias92: hmmm, if you do pkg-config --list-all in a terminal does it show libgtkmm? | 10:51 |

| damdam | hello | 10:51 |
| Tobias92 | MrHippocampus, it does not | 10:51 |
| kurt | hi | 10:51 |
| kurt | is there a psp or another game rom renamer for linux | 10:52 |
| damdam | it is possible to see my ubuntu partition when i am on windows? | 10:52 |
| kurt | like there is offlinelist on ms | 10:52 |
| MrHippocampus | Tobias92: did pkg-config show other libraries? | 10:52 |
| bazhang | kurt: for ubuntu? | 10:52 |
| lesshaste_ | is xvidcap available for ubuntu? I can't find it with apt-cache search which seems surprising | 10:52 |
| Tobias92 | MrHippocampus, lots and lots of them so I had to use grep to filter | 10:52 |
| damdam | it is in order to download some data between windows and ubuntu | 10:52 |
| kurt | bazhang: yes please | 10:52 |
| Tobias92 | damdam, you could write to your windows partition with ubuntu but windows cant read ext3fs, which is ubuntu | 10:53 |
| bazhang | kurt: not sure | 10:53 |
| MrHippocampus | Tobias92: hmm, thats strange | 10:53 |
| thor | damdam windows cannot read or write linux partitions, but linux can read and write windows partitions | 10:53 |
| damdam | yes i know that ubuntu is ok with NTFS | 10:54 |
| bucky | damdam, you can get a driver that will enable windows to see linux | 10:54 |
| MrHippocampus | damdam: you can get windows to read an ext2/ext3 partition if you install a program called ext2ifs | 10:54 |
| damdam | ok :) | 10:54 |
| damdam | great | 10:54 |
| damdam | thank you | 10:54 |
| MrHippocampus | damdam: thats install ext2ifs on windows, not ubuntu btw :) | 10:54 |
| Dan_ | someone have a second? | 10:54 |
| damdam | i test it now ;) | 10:55 |
| damdam | it is for my girlfriend | 10:55 |
| presto101 | anyone here got a nvidia 8600 | 10:55 |
| damdam | me i use ubuntu and my girlfriend windows (nobody is perfect) and the ubuntu partition is bigger | 10:55 |
| chazco | Does anyone know if its safe to run powertop - ie, can everything be eaisly undone if it goes wrong? | 10:56 |
| Dan_ | I'm trying to install ubuntu, I select install/run ubunto from the options, it goes to the boot image screen with the progress bar, and the bar stops. | 10:56 |
| falieson | I can see my samba shares from windows but if I try to connect to them it says "path not found" | 10:56 |
| damdam | regards | 10:56 |
| MrHippocampus | chazco: it is safe to run powertop, the program itself doesnt change anything, it just displays information | 10:56 |
| Tobias92 | MrHippocampus, any idea how I could make it show up in pkg-config? | 10:57 |
| chazco | Hmm... it gives options which seem to do things (e.g. disable HAL for the DVD drive, change USB options etc)... | 10:57 |
| thor | falieson sounds like you defined the shares incorrectly. Did you install swat? | 10:57 |
| MrHippocampus | Tobias92: installing the -dev for libgtkmm should make it work, what program are you trying to install? | 10:57 |
| Dan_ | I thought it might have been a bad download, so I downloaded and made a new CD for it, tried again, and it did the exact same thing | 10:57 |
| bucky | Dan_, are you running a live CD? | 10:57 |
| chazco | The DVD option seems to stop the drive from working, so nauturally I dont want that permentant (although it did up the power supply) | 10:57 |
| Dan_ | yeah. | 10:58 |
| bucky | Dan_, or an alternate? | 10:58 |
| Tobias92 | MrHippocampus, something very exotic, its a tool to flash my ASURO robot | 10:58 |
| falieson | thor: swat? | 10:58 |
| ^sa^ | goodmorning everybody | 10:58 |
| chazco | !powertop | 10:58 |
| Dan_ | its a live CD | 10:58 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about powertop - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 10:58 |
| MrHippocampus | Tobias92: that is exotic, i was thinking trying to get synaptic to install the source of a similar package (which would get all of the -dev dependancies) | 10:59 |
| ^sa^ | i need some help: i have to disable my touchpad mouse... i hate it :P | 10:59 |
| bucky | Dan_, what VGA card? | 10:59 |
| ^sa^ | can anyone help? | 10:59 |
| thor | falieson swat is a web based config system for samba. It takes a little work to get it up and running, but it is well worth it instead of doing the samba config manually | 10:59 |
| gero | tucc | 10:59 |
| Dan_ | radeon 9250 | 10:59 |
| falieson | thor: I'm been using kcontrol | 10:59 |
| MrHippocampus | chazco: the dvd drive should still work, it just wont auto-detect inseted dvd's | 10:59 |
| Tobias92 | MrHippocampus, that'd be handy indeed ;) | 10:59 |
| chazco | Ah, handy to know i think | 10:59 |
| Tobias92 | MrHippocampus, it's a german company that made it though, so all packages they provide are .rpm, and heavily outdated | 11:00 |
| chazco | The trouble is battery life in Ubuntu is less than it was in Vista, so... | 11:00 |
| thor | ^sa^ try this in a terminal 'synclient TouchpadOff=1' | 11:00 |
| Milotin | can someone tell that if it's normal this : yesterday my network connection didn`t worked but the sound yes. when i managed to solve my network problem the sound crashed and when i tried to solve the sound the network crashed | 11:00 |
| matrix | i run sudo ,it says i was not in sudoers,so i have to edit /etc/sudoers,but how? | 11:00 |
| ^sa^ | thor synclient TouchpadOff=1 | 11:00 |
| ^sa^ | it gives me an error | 11:00 |
| ^sa^ | Can't access shared memory area. SHMConfig disabled? | 11:00 |
| chazco | It'd be nice if powertop would explain what some options mean in more detail | 11:01 |
| MrHippocampus | chazco: the best thing to do is look at the programs in the powertop list and stop anything running taking up a lot of interrupts | 11:01 |
| thor | falieson ah...ok. Check the share definitions and make sure you have the full path for each. for instance, use /home/falieson/shared instead of ~/shared | 11:01 |
| bucky | Dan_, did you check the md5sum? and did you check the CD for errors? | 11:01 |
| Dan_ | I'm downloading the 6.06 distro right now to see if maybe it's the download from the website is bad. | 11:01 |
| ^sa^ | thor what else should i do | 11:01 |
| MrHippocampus | chazco: if you browse www.lesswatts.org you will find a lot of power saving information :) | 11:01 |
| |stalker| | Go channel #chatplanet | 11:01 |
| falieson | thor: yeah it's /storage/torrents not a lot more to be done with that | 11:01 |
| Dan_ | checked the cD for errors, it said it was fine | 11:01 |
| thor | ^sa^ ok...was worth a shot. It works in my suse install but wasn't sure as I need the touch pad in ubuntu and hadn't tried it | 11:01 |
| matrix | hi, i run sudo ,it says i was not in sudoers,so i have to edit /etc/sudoers,but how? | 11:02 |
| bucky | matrix, visudo | 11:02 |
| thor | falieson do you as the user have permissions in that folder? might be a permissions issue | 11:02 |
| Dan_ | I already pitched the cd though, so I'll have to wait will this new one DLs to check the md5sum | 11:02 |
| ^sa^ | so whatelse can i do | 11:02 |
| falieson | it's 755 | 11:02 |
| MrHippocampus | Tobias92: hmmm, this is strange, ive checked on my gentoo and it doesnt list gtkmm in pkg-config even though I do have it installed | 11:02 |
| presto101 | anyone here use a geforce 8 card | 11:02 |
| falieson | thor: the permissions are 755 | 11:02 |
| |stalker| | Hi lohi | 11:03 |
| matrix | bucky: visudo,there is a root all :all all ,then what i need to add? | 11:03 |
| Tobias92 | MrHippocampus, I got through it now :). I needed libgtkmm-2.4-dev plus tweaking the gtk sourcecode a bit | 11:03 |
| bucky | matrix, your user name with the same arguments as root | 11:03 |

| leagris | Hello, I have troubles with IPv6 radvd on router, my laptop does not get an IP from the range configured on router. See radvd.conf here http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49399, can you help please? | 11:04 |
| MrHippocampus | Tobias92: good to hear :) | 11:04 |
| Tobias92 | MrHippocampus, thanks for the helping-out though :) | 11:04 |
| Dan_ | I can install onto a slave drive, right? | 11:04 |
| MrHippocampus | Tobias92: no problem | 11:04 |
| falieson | thor: I am (falieson) but the permissions on it are rwxr-xr-x | 11:05 |
| Dan_ | then set ubuntu into the boot selection? | 11:05 |
| thor | matrix...something wrong there. You should have been added to that list when you installed. Ubuntu really doesn't use root...automatically defines the first user as an admin | 11:05 |
| kurt | when i try to reach my msn e-mails with amsn i get this error | 11:05 |
| thor | falieson and when you attempt to access the share from windows, are you using your userid and password from linux? | 11:05 |
| Milotin | can someone tell that if it's normal this : yesterday my network connection didn`t worked but the sound yes. when i managed to solve my network problem the sound crashed and when i tried to solve the sound the network crashed | 11:05 |
| falieson | thor: yes | 11:05 |
| Benalex | I am trying to install VMWare player, and it says "VMware Player cannot be installed on your computer type (i386) | 11:06 |
| Benalex | Either the application requires special hardware features or the vendor decided to not support your computer type." | 11:06 |
| Benalex | oops | 11:06 |
| kurt | can't execute application : mozilla $url. check preferences | 11:06 |
| bucky | Dan_, the bootloader should add Ubuntu automatically even if its on the slave | 11:06 |
| falieson | thor: and in kcontrol I added my user figuring that would help in some sort of way | 11:06 |
| thor | falieson yes...you need to do that. Don't know if kcontrol does this automatically, but I also needed to add my password using smbpasswd | 11:06 |
| chazco | !laptop-mode | 11:06 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about laptop-mode - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 11:06 |

| ubotu | Laptop support information can be found on http://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportMachinesLaptops - http://www.linux-laptop.net/ - http://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam - http://tuxmobil.org | 11:07 |
| falieson | thor: nm - kcontrol doesn't seem to have to retained that user thing | 11:07 |
| Dan_ | I mean, I never got past the initial option selection screen, so I don't think that was the problem, just making sure | 11:07 |
| pg | When I use my wireless card, my computer eratically freezes for 2-5 seconds. No input or output. Then /var/log/syslog is appended with the line "kernel: [ 4361.588000] ndiswrapper (miniport_reset:72): wlan0 is being reset". Ubuntu's wifi page says the Windows driver and ndiswrapper should work for this card. | 11:07 |
| bucky | kurt, look in the amsn preferences ,maybe you need to set the default browser or something | 11:07 |
| kurt | bucky: ok i see to that | 11:07 |
| === ajmorris|Nexuiz is now known as ajmorris_ | ||

| ubuntux | hey, does someone know how to get sound working in vmware workstation? | 11:09 |
| matrix | bucky: i have some requirments,that when i sudo do something,it needs passwd for root to pass? | 11:09 |
| kurt | speaking of sounds : is there a way to get sounds when opening or closing windows | 11:09 |
| Dan_ | I have onboard video too. But, I already researched my hardware and have the fixes ready | 11:09 |
| ubuntux | kurt, why, i guess its annoying | 11:10 |
| bucky | matrix, this is what sudo does.it asks for your password, not the roor password | 11:10 |
| falieson | thor: so i did smbpasswd and still nothing | 11:10 |
| Dan_ | and the display was set to just VGA, | 11:10 |

| chickenFuego | IndyGunFreak, it there some state-supported linux developpement in india/pakistan? check http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Flag_Linux | 11:58 |
| IndyGunFreak | janpei: what program? | 11:58 |

| RicMar | Hello everybody. I'm having a big problem. I used ubuntu since the 6.4 version and I was satisfied. BUt once I've upgrade to 7.1 I'm having problems with the hardware | 11:58 |

| ubotu | janpei: Ubuntu is a complete Linux-based operating system, freely available with both community and professional support. It is developed by a large community and we invite you to participate too! - Also see http://www.ubuntu.com | 11:58 |
| IndyGunFreak | janpei: you need to learn how to use the package manager. | 11:58 |
| LimCore | where to report general bugs? | 11:58 |
| LimCore | like fonts are broken | 11:59 |
| holycow | janpei: system/admin/synaptic | 11:59 |
| iDope | janpei try using synaptic | 11:59 |
| holycow | you can install tons of software from there | 11:59 |
| IndyGunFreak | janpei: you can use amsn, but my understanding is, the linux version sucks.. most people use pidgin | 11:59 |
| holycow | janpei: what IndyGunFreak said is good advice, use pidgin instead | 11:59 |
| iDope | pidgin is much better than aMSN IMHO | 11:59 |
| IndyGunFreak | !synaptic | janpei | 11:59 |
| ubotu | janpei: synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto | 11:59 |
| RicMar | The problem is: I shutdown but the system doesn't poweroff... Someone could help me? | 11:59 |

| holycow | !blacklist | 12:01 |
| ubotu | To blacklist a module, edit /etc/modprobe.d/my_blacklist and add « blacklist <modulename> » to the end of that list - To explicitly load modules in a specific order, list them in /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and type « sudo update-initramfs -u » | 12:01 |
| holycow | eshat: try that | 12:01 |
| janpei | thanx...i can't use windows....its rotten | 12:01 |
| RicMar | I have a problem: I shutdown but the system doesn't poweroff... Someone could help me? | 12:01 |
| chickenFuego | eshat, check /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist | 12:01 |
| bucky | janpei, pls read the link i sent you | 12:01 |
| eshat | holycow: no ,.,. i need it fot the live cd ,.. and for that i need to blacklist it in kernel paramter | 12:01 |
| janpei | ok | 12:02 |

| chickenFuego | I see eshat. | 12:02 |
| Fujitsu | eshat: Can you not just remove it once you've booted? | 12:02 |
| holycow | well you are going to havet remaster the cd if you want to permanently blacklist it | 12:03 |
| holycow | otherwise just sudo rmmod kernelmodule | 12:03 |
| holycow | thats it | 12:03 |
| IndyGunFreak | holycow: well if thats all.. | 12:03 |
| IndyGunFreak | lol | 12:03 |
| eshat | Fujitsu: i just don't want to turn acpi off,... cause my machine won't boot if a specific moduel is loaded,.. so there must be a way for to blacklist one in kernelparamaters | 12:03 |
| eshat | holycow: see what i told Fujitsu | 12:03 |
| holycow | eshat: knoppix allows to pass parameters on boot, ubuntu live cd MIGHT have that as well | 12:04 |
| holycow | i don't know tho | 12:04 |
| Fujitsu | eshat: Try modulename.blacklist=yes | 12:04 |
| RicMar | I have a problem: I shutdown but the system doesn't poweroff... Someone could help me please? | 12:04 |
| leagris | Hello, I have troubles with IPv6 radvd on router, my laptop does not get an IP from the range configured on router. See radvd.conf here http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49399, can you help please? | 12:04 |
| MrHippocampus | eshat: its possible to load no modules on boot with load_modules=off as a kernel parameter, but then it might not boot because of not finding other modules :( | 12:05 |
| holycow | eshat: unfortunately you will haveto google that, i've never had to do it yet on any live cd | 12:05 |
| IndyGunFreak | leagris: your pastebin is no good | 12:05 |
| thedoor | esclavo, can u help me with my HDD? | 12:05 |
| iDope | hey by the way.. | 12:05 |
| bucky | RichiH, what computer? | 12:05 |
| thedoor | eshat, can u help me? | 12:05 |
| leagris | IndyGunFreak, what you mean by no good, can't read it? | 12:06 |
| Bassetts | is there a way to see where a file is being downloaded from in firefox? like the full path of the file | 12:06 |
| iDope | anyone know of a file copying utility which can resume broken transfers | 12:06 |
| holycow | thedoor: just ask the question plz | 12:06 |
| IndyGunFreak | leagris: it comes up invalid | 12:06 |
| CaptainMorgan | is it possible to set up terminal to open to a new default size at program startup ? | 12:06 |
| IndyGunFreak | u sure the link is right? | 12:06 |
| kopolov | I am trying to create a connection between the Ubuntu login process and AFS authentication. If you know how to do it, please email me to kopolov@gmail.com. Thank you very much. | 12:06 |
| iDope | by copying utility i mean something like cp/mv | 12:06 |
| rgl | hi. I'm trying to use aide with dapper, but it segfaults... any idea how to fix it? | 12:06 |
| holycow | Bassetts: edit/preferences, check the download path. or in the download manager check the download location at the bottom | 12:06 |
| B-rabbit | thedoor, people cannot know if they could help u unless u ask the question | 12:06 |
| leagris | IndyGunFreak, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49399/ | 12:06 |
| eshat | thedoor: whats the problem ? | 12:06 |
| Fujitsu | iDope: rsync? | 12:06 |
| bucky | CaptainMorgan, yes, check the user setting | 12:07 |
| thedoor | holycow, my HDD are so slowly on linux and i don't know why, the DMA is active and in the hdparm the speed are less tah 900k/s | 12:07 |
| iDope | does rsync work on local files? | 12:07 |
| CaptainMorgan | bucky, if it's there, I'm not sure where.. as I've looked | 12:07 |
| Bassetts | holycow, I want to see the full path of where the file is coming from | 12:07 |
| ajopaul_ | on my gutsy machine i compiled latest from svn with ./configure --enable-gui --enable-x11 but when play any files i dont get full screen | 12:07 |
| Fujitsu | iDope: Yes. | 12:07 |
| ajopaul_ | i.e mplayer | 12:07 |
| bucky | CaptainMorgan, which terminal, gnome? | 12:07 |
| iDope | excellent. | 12:07 |
| holycow | thedoor: i wouldn't be able to tell you anything more than to turn dma on. outside of that i wouldn't really mess with hdparm settings you can hose an hd very easily. may i make a dumb suggestion? try a different hd instead? it will probably save you lots of headaches considering hdparm deals with the mechanics of a spinning platter mechanism | 12:08 |
| CaptainMorgan | bucky, yes | 12:08 |
| IndyGunFreak | leagris: sorry, no clue on that one. | 12:08 |
| Fujitsu | ajopaul_: You'll want to ask the mplayer folks about that. | 12:08 |
| holycow | Bassetts: comming from? | 12:08 |
| Bassetts | holycow, I want to see the full URL of the file I am downloading | 12:08 |
| ajopaul_ | Fujitsu, okie | 12:08 |
| ShadowCall | hey, why when i start up ubuntu Live CD do i get sound with a massive screeching over the top. But when i use the installed version it doesnt even recognise my sound card | 12:09 |
| iDope | i used to have Copy Handler on Windows | 12:09 |
| holycow | Bassetts: well firefox isn't programmed to give you that interfaces, mostly because its useless. if you want that i would recommend searching for an extension that allows for that feature ... i'm sure there are a good number already. | 12:09 |
| iDope | the developer has been silent for a while now | 12:09 |
| bucky | CaptainMorgan, sadly i am using KDE now, but i rember you could set it in Gnome. edit>current profile I thinlk | 12:09 |
| IndyGunFreak | ShadowCall: so you have no sound at all? | 12:09 |
| ShadowCall | nop | 12:09 |
| ShadowCall | i cant even | 12:09 |
| Fujitsu | rgl: Does it look anything like bug #28444? | 12:09 |
| ShadowCall | change the volume controls | 12:09 |
| thedoor | holycow, i don't have money to buy a new HDD =], the wirte on the drive is ok, but the read are so slowly | 12:09 |
| IndyGunFreak | ShadowCall: open a terminal, and put in lspci and see how it identifies your sound device | 12:09 |
| CaptainMorgan | bucky, my profile for the terminal is set to Default, .... within Edit > Profiles there's no settings for display width and height | 12:09 |
| Cin | -_- | 12:09 |
| Fujitsu | rgl: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/aide/+bug/28444 | 12:10 |
| holycow | Bassetts: i think thats the only way your going to enable that sort of info without doing the work your self. you can also mouse over the link and look at the bottom of your browser to see the path. | 12:10 |
| iDope | and I expected someone would write a Nautilus or Konqueror extension to give some similar functionality but I guess that hasn't happened | 12:10 |
| ShadowCall | Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Controller (rev 02) | 12:10 |
| IndyGunFreak | ShadowCall: thats why | 12:10 |
| ShadowCall | ? | 12:10 |
| IndyGunFreak | !intelhda | ShadowCall | 12:10 |
| ubotu | ShadowCall: For fixing your Intel HDA sound this page has useful information https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto | 12:10 |
| RicMar | :( | 12:10 |
| holycow | Bassetts: there is another option: install downloader for x and the install an extension called 'quick download' or something. | 12:10 |
| CaptainMorgan | bucky, I know what you mean, it's not there... there's got to be a terminal.config text file somewhere where I can set this...... | 12:10 |
| ShadowCall | ive tried this tut before | 12:10 |
| ShadowCall | but i dont understand it | 12:10 |
| ShadowCall | im new to linux u see | 12:10 |
| IndyGunFreak | ShadowCall: well, the tutorial is fairly clear in its instructions. | 12:11 |
| holycow | Bassetts: what will happen then is when you download files d4x will handle the download instead of firefox and it will give you the url of the link and a whole ton of other information | 12:11 |
| holycow | that should actually do it nicely. | 12:11 |
| ShadowCall | yes it is | 12:11 |
| leagris | IndyGunFreak, can you read my radvd.conf or no clue on the issue? | 12:11 |
| IndyGunFreak | so what did you not understand? | 12:11 |
| Bassetts | thanks holycow | 12:11 |
| IndyGunFreak | leagris: no clue on the issue... | 12:11 |
| holycow | np | 12:11 |
| ShadowCall | when it means ~/downloads | 12:11 |
| ShadowCall | wat that mean | 12:11 |
| ShadowCall | were is that? | 12:11 |
| holycow | thedoor: :/ *hmm* stick around. perhaps a hardware guru might show up | 12:11 |
| Fujitsu | leagris: Do you get link-local v6 addresses on your clients? | 12:11 |
| rgl | Fujitsu, yes. I also found this http://changelogs.ubuntu.com/changelogs/pool/main/a/aide/aide_0.11a-4/changelog which has a release for a segfault buf after the release we have on dapper. | 12:11 |
| bucky | CaptainMorgan, cause I dont have Gnome i cant help you , but there arre many types of terminals | 12:12 |
| holycow | don't forget most users are eu / us based, considering the time of day and the fact its the holidays you might need to be aptient tho | 12:12 |
| holycow | sorry i couldn't be of more help | 12:12 |
| IndyGunFreak | ShadowCall: you're supposed to create it... type this w/o quotes, and i'll get you to compiling the driver.. "/join #indygunfreak" | 12:12 |
| thedoor | holycow, is not a hardware problem, in the windows it works fine/ | 12:12 |
| RainCT | Hi | 12:12 |
| leagris | Fujitsu, Yes, link_local ok, get ipv6 route for the advertised block but no scope_global IP | 12:12 |
| CaptainMorgan | bucky, and anyone else willing to help, it's the standard terminal found in Application > Accessories > Terminal | 12:12 |
| Fujitsu | leagris: My radvd.conf is similar, but has the following underneath AdvSendAdvert: | 12:13 |
| Fujitsu | MaxRtrAdvInterval 30; | 12:13 |
| Fujitsu | It may just not be sending them frequently enough. | 12:13 |
| leagris | Fujitsu, will try that | 12:14 |
| ThiagoBruno | good morning | 12:15 |
| bucky | CaptainMorgan, i can do it easily in Konsole | 12:15 |
| Bassetts | holycow, where can I get "quick download" | 12:15 |
| iDope | by the way anyone successful in starting Compiz with Xinerama on an nvidia card in Gutsy Gibbon ? | 12:15 |
| holycow | Bassetts: well you will be searching for download extensions for firefox. select tools / addons and go to that site | 12:16 |
| ThiagoBruno | what compile htb-tools in ubuntu 7.10 ? | 12:16 |
| iDope | I had it working in the Fiesty based Linux Mint 3.1 (Celena) | 12:16 |
| holycow | Bassetts: you will haveto do the searching your self and figure out how to hook it up to d4x, i'm not in the mood to do the work right now :) | 12:16 |
| iDope | but now Compiz gives a seg fault when Xinerama is enabled | 12:16 |
| Fujitsu | iDope: I do so at work. | 12:16 |
| iDope | and TwinView isn't as good | 12:16 |
| holycow | uh | 12:16 |
| Fujitsu | iDope: Oh, right, not Xinerama. I use TwinView. | 12:16 |
| Bassetts | holycow, flashgot should do the job | 12:16 |
| holycow | flashgot thats the one | 12:16 |
| holycow | lol :) nice your fast | 12:16 |
| holycow | iDope: twinview is superior to xinerama | 12:17 |
| iDope | Twinview shows all open windows in the task bar even though they are not on the current visible workspace | 12:17 |
| iDope | yes but this little thing is pesky | 12:17 |
| holycow | if you have nvidia card you should be using twinview | 12:17 |
| iDope | otherwise i do agree its more mature | 12:17 |
| AceOfSpades | Can I use the awk command only for files, or can I use it with bash commands too? | 12:17 |
| holycow | that has nothing to do with twinview | 12:17 |
| RainCT | my PC gets often really slow after some hours of being on, but if I reboot it works fine again but I find a several MB big "core" file in my home. any idea what the problem could be? | 12:17 |
| holycow | configure your window manager to handle that properly | 12:17 |
| martinw | I googled quite a bit but I just can't find a simple way to convert flac to mp3. Which works.. How do I do it? | 12:18 |
| iDope | any ponters holycow? | 12:18 |
| iDope | its recognizing my workspaces right | 12:18 |
| Fujitsu | martinw: Try soundconverter (disclaimer: I maintain the package) | 12:18 |
| holycow | iDope: i'm on kde, you can configure it here, i don't remember on gnome tho :/ | 12:18 |
| bucky | CaptainMorgan, try eterm, aterm or xterm | 12:18 |
| iDope | hmmm | 12:18 |
| iDope | im apt-getting kde as we speak | 12:19 |
| chazco | Can anyone help me get Ubuntu to match the battery life my laptop has with Vista, or even XP? | 12:19 |
| bucky | CaptainMorgan, and try urxvt | 12:19 |
| MrHippocampus | RainCT: you get core.* files when a program crashes and the memory its using is written to a file. if you have a few of them some program is crashing a lot | 12:19 |
| holycow | well i'm not saying you should use it | 12:19 |
| d1me0 | Hi! i have read that's possible to upgrade from feisty to gutsy using an alternate installation CD: however i have an x64 and a 64bit ubuntu installation (not IA64), is there an alternate image for that flavor too? | 12:20 |
| iDope | no I actually like KDE | 12:20 |
| iDope | much more than Gnome | 12:20 |
| leagris | Fujitsu, no lock, updated the pastes: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49403/ | 12:20 |
| Fujitsu | d1me0: That's the amd64 alternate CD. | 12:20 |
| iDope | just the thought of the many PROBLEMS i might face installing it on a GNOME based distro kept me at bay | 12:20 |
| bucky | d1me0, whatever you do .back up before you do anything | 12:20 |
| iDope | but here I go then | 12:20 |
| Andycasss | Does anyone know which ports need to be forwarded for Citadel to work? | 12:20 |
| wonderwal | which ubuntu livecds ship with the latest 2.6.2x kernel? | 12:20 |
| d1me0 | Fujitsu, yes, but it's nowhere to be found... | 12:21 |
| leagris | Fujitsu, if I add an IPv6 to interface wlan0 manually it works though | 12:21 |
| holycow | iDope: there are no problems | 12:21 |
| d1me0 | Fujitsu, there's the IA64 only | 12:21 |
| holycow | you install kubuntu desktop and on login you select which de you want to use | 12:21 |
| d1me0 | bucky, thank you for the advice | 12:21 |
| holycow | its completely transparent | 12:21 |
| dobribob | hey folks, does anybody know how to improve rendering of the Monaco font? | 12:21 |
| Fujitsu | wonderwal: Ubuntu 7.10 ships with Linux 2.6.22. Ubuntu 8.04 Alpha 2 ships with a prerelease of 2.6.24, but it is strongly recommended that non-developers do not run it. | 12:22 |
| wonderwal | Fujitsu: ok thanks | 12:22 |
| stefan__ | somebody please i need to install realplayer on my kubuntu 7.10 | 12:22 |
| bucky | d1me0, i also suggest creating a /home partition | 12:22 |
| Fujitsu | d1me0: http://releases.ubuntu.com/7.10/ says otherwise. | 12:22 |
| iDope | so do I add the Kubuntu Repos and install kubuntu-desktop or can I just apt-get kde? | 12:22 |
| stefan__ | any deb packages around? | 12:22 |
| aurax | can anyone help me out? i want to add new drive to my ubuntu server and install few distros there and being able to access them using grub | 12:22 |
| holycow | !realplayer | 12:22 |
| ubotu | For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats | 12:22 |
| iDope | as in will there be a difference? | 12:22 |
| AceOfSpades | awk '{print $1}' screen -ls | grep DALnet <---- it says cannot open screen (no such file of directory) | 12:22 |
| Fujitsu | iDope: Kubuntu uses the same repositories as Ubuntu. | 12:22 |
| stefan__ | ok thanks | 12:22 |
| iDope | my sources.list only has the default Ubuntu Gutsy repos | 12:23 |
| CaptainMorgan | bucky, thanks, but none of those even have a menubar or appear to have a menu that I navigate to make configuration edits... besides, judging by the look of them, I'm going to stick with Terminal | 12:23 |
| holycow | iDope: no apt-cache search kubuntu-desktop | 12:23 |
| holycow | that will pull in everything for you | 12:23 |
| aurax | anyone? | 12:23 |
| d1me0 | bucky, thank you (keep anyway in mind that im not a noob about linux in general ;-) (no offense taken anyway)) | 12:23 |
| Fujitsu | AceOfSpades: Perhaps you want `screen -ls | awk...'? | 12:23 |
| iDope | thanx a million holycow | 12:23 |
| holycow | np | 12:23 |
| martinw | Thanks. | 12:23 |
| bucky | CaptainMorgan, you need to edit files in .Xdefaults | 12:24 |
| martinw | SOundconverter looks perfect. | 12:24 |
| RainCT | MrHippocampus: I've only a big "core" file (called just like that, without the .<whatever>). Yesterday Nautilus was freezing constantly (I closed it, it asked me to force, and then it respawned and was frozed again lol) but I think the times this happened before there was no crash/freeze | 12:24 |
| Fujitsu | martinw: Aha, that's good. | 12:24 |
| RainCT | uhm.. might this be an issue with Hardy's kernel? | 12:24 |
| d1me0 | Fujitsu, thank you... seems like there's a broken/outdated page then, the link i was looking at didn't listed that CD (and it's official): http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ports/releases/gutsy/release/ | 12:24 |
| d1me0 | (just to show im not completely dumb :-) ) | 12:25 |
| bucky | d1me0, sorry....can never be sure | 12:25 |
| Fujitsu | RainCT: You shouldn't be asking Hardy questions in here :) | 12:25 |
| Fujitsu | d1me0: The key there is the `ports/' bit of the URL. | 12:25 |
| AceOfSpades | Fujitsu: Can I use the output from awk to another command? | 12:25 |
| d1me0 | bucky, i understand and appreciated that | 12:25 |
| Fujitsu | Ports are the unofficial architectures. | 12:25 |
| Andycasss | Does anyone know which ports need to be forwarded for Citadel to work? | 12:25 |
| d1me0 | oh | 12:25 |
| RainCT | Fujitsu: I've Gutsy, but with Hardy's kernel (they asked me to install it to check if a problem I reported was fixed) | 12:25 |
| d1me0 | didn't know that | 12:25 |
| d1me0 | thank you Fujitsu! | 12:25 |
| Fujitsu | AceOfSpades: Yes. `screen -ls | awk '{print $1}' | grep DALnet' should do what6 you want. | 12:25 |
| RainCT | well I'll try uninstalling it | 12:25 |
| AceOfSpades | Fujitsu: screen -ls | grep DALnet | cut -f1 -d '.' | kill awk '{print $1}' <--- This is what I'm trying... | 12:26 |
| AceOfSpades | Fujitsu: I need to kill the process | 12:26 |
| aurax | can any one help out with multiboot? | 12:26 |
| Fujitsu | Erm, you might need to stick a `-' on the end of the awk command line to make it read stdin. | 12:26 |
| bucky | CaptainMorgan, if Konsole doesnt have many dependencies - i would try that. it is easy to configure | 12:27 |
| Sharpie | if i want to delete everything in a directory, except for files that end in .avi, which pattern can i use? (i tried using rm ./*.!avi or something but it obviously didn't work) | 12:27 |
| AceOfSpades | Fujitsu: screen -ls | grep DALnet | cut -f1 -d '.' | kill awk '{print $1}' - <--- Like this? | 12:27 |
| Fujitsu | AceOfSpades: That won't work. | 12:28 |
| Fujitsu | Do you mean: | 12:28 |
| MrHippocampus | RainCT: apparently if you do "file core" it will tell you the name of the program which dumped it | 12:28 |

| d1me0 | One last question, does anybody knows if the Gutsy gibbon fixes the HP Pavillion dv6xxx/AMD problems? That's why im thinking about the upgrade... | 12:28 |
| AceOfSpades | Fujitsu: Okay, that works, thanks :) | 12:28 |
| Fujitsu | d1me0: Which problems? | 12:28 |
| Fujitsu | AceOfSpades: Great :) | 12:29 |
| d1me0 | random freezes | 12:29 |
| d1me0 | and ACPI/irq problems | 12:29 |
| MrHippocampus | RainCT: hmmm, doesnt look like theres anything useful there :( | 12:29 |
| d1me0 | not a linux problem, of course, HP acpi implementation seem bogus | 12:29 |
| Fujitsu | d1me0: Is it fairly new hardware? | 12:29 |
| d1me0 | 1 year, more or less | 12:29 |
| Fujitsu | It's quite possible that the newer kernel will like it more. | 12:30 |
| d1me0 | seem like that a lot of people (like me) are forced to run with irqfixup and noapic to get a stable system | 12:30 |
| RainCT | uninstalling the 2.6.24 kernel removed the /vmlinux file, do I need to run something to restore it? | 12:30 |
| d1me0 | mmh... i had liked to know it for sure, but thank you. I'll try anyway | 12:30 |
| Fujitsu | RainCT: That shouldn't kill anything. | 12:30 |
| Sharpie | if i want to delete everything in a directory, except for files that end in .avi, which pattern can i use? (i tried using rm ./*.!avi or something but it obviously didn't work) | 12:30 |
| SAngeli | Hi, I just added to repository the deb link for skype but installed only ver. 1.4 How to install latest beta version that offers video? | 12:31 |

| RainCT | MrHippocampus and Fujitsu: thanks | 12:31 |
| bucky | SAngeli, go to skype.com | 12:31 |
| Fujitsu | Sharpie: I'm not quite sure how to do it properly, but you could move *.avi away for a moment, then delete everything... | 12:31 |
| d1me0 | Fujitsu, since you seem to know a lot, do you know if using a CD for the upgrade will remove from my system the packages that cannot be upgraded from the CD? | 12:32 |

| MrHippocampus | Sharpie: this one shoud work "rm *.[^a][^v][^i]", a bit long but ive tested it and it works | 12:39 |
| bucky | SAngeli, best to install by running the command sudo dpkg -i name_of_package.deb | 12:39 |
| iDope | I just realizes TwinView treats the whole cube as one Workspace | 12:39 |
| SAngeli | bucky: thank you I was not aware it was so easy to install it. | 12:39 |

| papagoose | SAngeli: Have you got desktop effects enabled with compiz-fusion? | 12:41 |
| bucky | SAngeli, ,my internet is very slow so i cant send links. google `install everything in ubuntu` | 12:41 |
| MrHippocampus | Sharpie, it works fine for me, the command just leaves all the .avi's in a directory | 12:41 |
| SAngeli | Yes, i guess | 12:41 |
| AceOfSpades | Fujitsu: I tried the other slash and it's showing more errors | 12:42 |

| papagoose | SAngeli, if you want to make it look better, try installing emerald theme manager on top of compiz | 12:44 |
| SAngeli | I will read it. Thank you | 12:44 |

| holycow | lol | 12:50 |
| holycow | i've run into problems every single release | 12:50 |
| bucky | ahmad, i had the same problem | 12:50 |
| blazemonger | iim gonna have to go back to slack | 12:50 |
| blazemonger | ubuntu'sw pretty but they need to get their bugs sort out | 12:50 |
| IndyGunFreak | why did you switch? | 12:50 |
| blazemonger | ubuntu looked sexy | 12:51 |
| ahmad | ok i use now emul using wine | 12:51 |
| IndyGunFreak | well, you've done something wrong. | 12:51 |
| blazemonger | tried debian stable and during install it asked me if i wanted to continue without a valid swap partition | 12:51 |
| blazemonger | and im not new to unix's | 12:51 |
| blazemonger | and no matter what option i select whamo wo nt finish install | 12:51 |
| bucky | ahmad, oh...i sont know about emule. i had that problem in Amule | 12:51 |
| IndyGunFreak | blazemonger: debian is quite easy to install. | 12:51 |
| holycow | blazemonger: they will never get the butgs sorted out | 12:52 |
| blazemonger | i know it is | 12:52 |
| holycow | their release cycles are too short | 12:52 |
| Fujitsu | holycow: Gee, thanks. | 12:52 |
| bucky | ahmad you need to manually download the server file | 12:52 |
| holycow | 6 months is simply way too optimistic | 12:52 |
| blazemonger | holycow: i would use debian | 12:52 |
| Fujitsu | How? | 12:52 |
| ahmad | i use now emule with wine but i need amule too | 12:52 |
| holycow | on top of that, they have 6 month SERVER release cycles of all things based on debian unstable | 12:52 |
| blazemonger | but if these instrall errors keep coming up in the debian distros everythings gona get clusterscrewed | 12:52 |
| Fujitsu | blazemonger: I'm failing to see the install error in Ubuntu here. | 12:52 |
| bucky | ahmad do you get the same problem with amule? | 12:52 |
| blazemonger | holycow: whats this uspsw install thing | 12:52 |
| ultimatsz | eh guys. anyone can tell me how to check if my harddisk is pata or sata? | 12:52 |
| holycow | overally we are shooting for lts releases only, the inbetween stuff is great to watch hard to maintain tho | 12:53 |
| holycow | no idea, never heard of that | 12:53 |
| IndyGunFreak | holycow: its pretty easy for me, but i'm not maintaining a bunch of pC's either, just 3 | 12:53 |

| blazemonger | and in libpng of all things handling images? | 13:19 |
| Fujitsu | lonejack: Ahem `Unfortunately in this case (from reading the bugzilla report) this bug is more likely the result of a faulty BIOS and not the kernel. | 13:19 |
| Fujitsu | blazemonger: It's not a bug in libpng. | 13:19 |

| vincenz | Well the issue is... I installed a new hd, two days ago. (I had gutsy on my old system which worked fine). Installed from livecd lts, then did an upgrade to edgy, feisty then gutsy. Then it said about a partial upgrade I had to do, I did that, and suddenly I could not use X anymore. So I had to download the installcd of gutsy and now installed it. I'm afraid if I now install the updates, my system will fuck up again | 14:16 |
| newman | i have ophcrack zip file how do i install it ? | 14:17 |
| pidginDutch | just checking the new how to on resticted, whats new ... | 14:17 |
| IndyGunFreak | oh ok | 14:17 |
| IndyGunFreak | vincenz: uh, why not just download a Gutsy CD and avoid all that? | 14:17 |
| lardarse | vincenz: have you tried a new install from gutsy? | 14:17 |
| LjLR | newman, you really don't listen, do you? ophcrack *IS IN THE REPOSITORIES*. do NOT install it from any ZIP file. | 14:17 |

| bazhang | newman: unzip it and then follow the install instructions inside | 14:17 |
| vincenz | lardarse: I did, but now am afraid that instlaling updates from net will once more bork X | 14:17 |
| IndyGunFreak | vincenz: ok, all that time you spent updating, etc, you could have probably downloaded, burned and installed gutsy fresh about 2-3x | 14:17 |
| blazemonger | http://rafb.net/p/HrapwJ32.html | 14:18 |
| vincenz | I'd log into gdm, and then get gnome, the bars at top and bottom would flash a few times and then dissapear | 14:18 |

| IndyGunFreak | vincenz: this i the command you'll need if X fails after the update... sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 14:26 |

| SAngeli | bazhang: I am having troubles with adobe flash under firefox where first of all it is at ver. 7 second I cannot hear sound | 14:26 |

| vincenz | IndyGunFreak: ok | 14:26 |
| vincenz | IndyGunFreak: well purginig and reinstalling it didn't do anything | 14:26 |

| LjL | mentioned, most likely, except /etc, which you might restore on an as-needed basis, especially if you're upgrading to a newer distribution. | 14:26 |

| IndyGunFreak | purging and reinstalling what? | 14:27 |
| bazhang | SAngeli: did you read the channel topic? regarding flash that is | 14:27 |
| IndyGunFreak | oh, purging and reinstalling Gnome? | 14:27 |

| blazemonger | Anyone else here know anything about scrollkeeper | 14:29 |
| DaveMck | got something of a newbie question, i think :D i'm trying to get a RAID partition to mount on startup | 14:29 |
| SAngeli | |thunder: I do not know | 14:29 |
| IndyGunFreak | vincenz: if when you restart, it fails on restart, you'll boot to a CLI.., then run that sudo dpkg reconfigure command i gave you... and just take generic defaults, that should ge tyou back toa GUI, then you should be able to setup any special drivers you have. | 14:29 |
| vincenz | right | 14:29 |
| * vincenz only has the restricted ATI ones, and those weren't there after that long upgrade frm LTs, since it was a clean install | 14:30 | |
| IndyGunFreak | vincenz: the key when running reconfigure, its generic defaults... if you have an ATI card, don't choose ati, or nvidia if you have nvidia, just choose vesa, and let it boot a generic driver, then when you get the GUI, you can set it up(at least that always works for me) | 14:30 |
| vincenz | IndyGunFreak: switching xorg.conf to 'vesa' did not fix the problem the other day | 14:30 |
| MrHippocampus | blazemonger, the errors you are getting in scrollkeeper really arent critical and you probably woldnt realise if ubuntu didnt notify you of the errors. If you are desparate to get rid of them, reinstall ubuntu. | 14:30 |
| |thunder | SAngeli; thats the problem then. get the latest zip from adobe for linux, its 9.0.115, and copy libflashplayer.so (i think it is) to /home/*yourname*/.mozilla/plugins | 14:30 |
| IndyGunFreak | vincenz: how did you switch it? | 14:31 |
| |thunder | SAngeli; restart firefox and you should be golden | 14:31 |
| DaveMck | i can get the drive to mount myself, manually, but i'm struggling to get it to mount automatically on startup | 14:31 |
| noodles12 | i have a dell 700m running on gutsy w/ an intel graphics card. I had problems withplaying video and suspending so i installed the xorg-driver-fglrx and the video was fixed but now my suspend and hibernate buttons disappeared from the thing for the button at the top right... ( used to have suspend, shutdown, restart, hibernate) | 14:31 |
| IndyGunFreak | vincenz: gotta go... good luck. | 14:32 |
| IndyGunFreak | later all. | 14:32 |
| SAngeli | bazhang: best of all, is it good idea to remove all those repos where I get those errors and live what I currently have as shown here http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49417/ | 14:32 |
| vincenz | ikonia: thx | 14:32 |
| blazemonger | MrHippocampus: What is the cause of it? | 14:32 |
| SAngeli | |thunder: let me thy | 14:32 |
| blazemonger | remove the updates? | 14:32 |
| pidginDutch | can the intel i810 video card have 3D accel? | 14:32 |
| bazhang | SAngeli: better to play it safe until you understand the system workings better | 14:32 |
| blazemonger | yup pidginDutch | 14:33 |
| blazemonger | i use a intel i810 card | 14:33 |
| SAngeli | bazhang: so, what to do then, at this point? Did you look at the link? Can I keep what I currently have, which runs fine? | 14:33 |
| MrHippocampus | blazemonger: i have no idea, it looks like something screwed up the xml in a scrollkeeper file and now its invalid xml, unless you want learn the format of the file and fix the errors yourself, the only other way would be to reinstall | 14:33 |
| blazemonger | i've reinstalled 4 times | 14:33 |
| blazemonger | it happens when i install the updates | 14:34 |
| blazemonger | libpng causes it to screw up | 14:34 |
| bazhang | SAngeli: remove those repositories first as a source, and barring anything major, carry on | 14:34 |
| DaveMck | so... if anyone's got any ideas. I've tried just adding the partition to /etc/fstab, but it craps out because the md service isn't running at that point. | 14:34 |
| SAngeli | ok | 14:34 |
| pidginDutch | blazemonger is that an onboard ( i have it on a dell optiplex gx110 | 14:34 |
| blazemonger | and in apparmor | 14:34 |
| bullgard4 | What do the square brackets mean in the sleep.sh output line "++ '[' -x /etc/acpi/resume.d/85-anacron.sh ']'"? | 14:35 |
| blazemonger | pidginDutch: its on a ibm thinkcentre | 14:35 |
| pidginDutch | ok | 14:35 |
| bazhang | SAngeli: good idea to keep backed up though--just in case :} | 14:35 |
| MrHippocampus | blazemonger: then your just going to have to accept it, as I said preivously, the errors are very unlikely to cause any problems | 14:35 |
| pidginDutch | did it work out of the box? | 14:35 |

| Zionad_ | I have a network at my house in which i set up one computer (from hereon called computer A) as a DHCP Server for netbooting. I have recently deleted dhcp3-server from computer A but the rest of my network is STILL trying to connect to computer A for an IP address, when they try to connect to computer a, they get some false Ip address and do not gain access to the inter net. They DO connect to the router and get the proper IP address | 14:37 |
| Zionad_ | ONLY when computer A is not on the network. How do i stop Computer A from giving out IPS and how do i stop the other computers from connection to computer A | 14:37 |
| blazemonger | MrHippocampus: : it happens on the exact same two updates every time i reinstall..libpng and apparmor | 14:37 |
| LjL | komputes, do you need to compress the stuff you back up (for instance to put it on a CD)? it makes a difference whether you do or don't. if you don't, you can just use "cp", otherwise "gzip" or a dedicated backup utility might be a better choice | 14:37 |
| TheEagle | Zionad_: im not sure about this - but have you tried setting up the other computer's ip addresses manually? | 14:38 |
| MrHippocampus | blazemonger: if you really feel that strongly about it, file a bug on launchpad | 14:38 |
| === efeferg is now known as minus | ||

| TheEagle | Zionad_: what os are the computers using? | 14:38 |
| Zionad_ | TheEagle: yes, sometimes the choose to use what i have put in, sometimes they still look at computer A for an IP | 14:38 |
| Zionad_ | TheEagle: Both ubuntu and windows | 14:39 |
| blazemonger | MrHippocampus: is it php causing it? | 14:39 |
| komputes | Ljbecause CD is ISO9660 and no permissions are allowed on CD's | 14:39 |
| LjL | komputes: if you backup to a non-POSIX filesystem (such as to a CD if you aren't careful with wodim/cdrecord), yes. | 14:39 |

| hasssna | how do i set up my internet connection with ubuntu | 14:39 |
| komputes | LjL thanks | 14:39 |
| TheEagle | Zionad_: so each computer is running both windows and ubuntu? | 14:39 |
| J_Laptop | with iso format, you need to enable rockridge | 14:39 |
| LjL | komputes: well, the RockRidge extensions can be used to implement permissions. But i do believe it would be better to make a tar | 14:39 |
| J_Laptop | then it'll hold your permissions, at least to some extent | 14:39 |
| Zionad_ | TheEagle: sorry no, 1 i on windows, and about 4 are on ubuntu | 14:39 |
| DaveMck | wow, its freaking busy in here | 14:40 |
| J_Laptop | I think rockridge will still take out the "w" permission | 14:40 |
| komputes | LjL: I thing tar is testted and true, so i'll stay oldschool | 14:40 |

| DaveMck | god i feel like a whiny kid | 14:43 |
| MrHippocampus | blazemonger: if it continues to happen after a reinstall as you have said, file a bug on launchpad.net/ubuntu | 14:43 |

| LjL | |thunder: the relevant package for that is tracker-utils | 14:43 |

| crush_groove | I think you can go from ubuntu to kubuntu pretty easy . can you do the opposite ? | 14:43 |

| DaveMck | no, software. mdadm | 14:43 |
| DaveMck | just really simple stuff | 14:43 |
| J_Laptop | crush- sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop | 14:43 |
| LjL | newman, follow the instructions that come with it. a version of ophcrack *is* available in the repositories; you either install that, or you're on your own. | 14:43 |

| DaveMck | i dont trust my fakeraid controller, it's destroyed data on me in the past :( | 14:44 |
| J_Laptop | blaze - might try something like fluxbuntu | 14:44 |
| Zionad_ | TheEagle: i COULD do that, but i dont know my ISP's DNS servers, which windows XP requires to make the computer have a static IP and route | 14:44 |
| SAngeli | |thunder: you are correct, from terminal, with wget I got it. Through web not. Funny | 14:44 |
| TheEagle | do you have a router | 14:44 |
| pidginDutch | i tested the install of the nonfree flash for gutsy, there is an md5 checksum error | 14:44 |
| crush_groove | J_Laptop, does that uninstall kubuntu and replace it or does that simply gimme another dt to login to | 14:44 |
| pidginDutch | thats not good | 14:44 |
| LjL | !flash > pidginDutch (pidginDutch, see the private message from Ubotu) | 14:44 |
| Zionad_ | THeEagle: Yes my router i want to ACT as a dhcp server to the whole network | 14:44 |
| SAngeli | |thunder: now, what should I do? Just extract it and cp the file you told me into the firefox plugins, and restart firefox? | 14:44 |
| TheEagle | Zionad_: which router have you got | 14:44 |
| J_Laptop | crush - Idon't think it'll remove KDE, but I think your default would become gnome | 14:44 |
| pidginDutch | ok thanks | 14:44 |
| Zionad_ | oh darn, A Netgear wireless one, Im not near it right now so i dont have the model | 14:45 |

| komputes | LjL, do you know what happens if you put a rockridge CD is put in an old standard linux 2.4 machine without rockridge? | 14:47 |
| LjL | komputes: you see the 8.3 filenames with the wrong permissions. | 14:48 |
| MrHippocampus | blazemonger: then file a bug on launchpad so the developers know about it | 14:48 |

| SAngeli | |thunder: now, how to add more plugins under firefox, at lest the most important ones? | 14:51 |
| juano__ | thorm: use synaptic to install those applications, you should install .deb packages | 14:51 |
| zubuntu | so this is bizarre, I seem to have lost the applications section of my menu they don't show up under the main menu, and i added the menu bar, and the application drop down is empty | 14:51 |
| LjL | thorm: anyway, you should be able to install 'azureus' by just typing « sudo apt-get install azureus ». it's a package that's available in the repositories. | 14:52 |
| TheEagle | Zionad_: as a temporary solution as i can;t find the exact cause - just get the DNS from your router | 14:52 |
| thorm | Oh ok | 14:52 |
| thorm | i'll try that then | 14:52 |
| blazemonger | whats wrong with apt? | 14:52 |
| blazemonger | do i need to install the backports too? | 14:53 |
| bazhang | SAngeli: do it via firefox tools--addons-extensions | 14:53 |

| === joerg is now known as SnaTch | ||
| thorm | thx it worked, juano__ and LjL :) | 14:54 |
| TheEagle | Zionad_: do you know how to do that | 14:54 |
| juano__ | thorm: np | 14:54 |
| LjL | thorm: remember to *always* search for packages in the repositories before installing them in other strange ways (which are likely to break your system). | 14:54 |
| thorm | yes.. :) | 14:54 |
| === joerg is now known as SnaTch | ||
| thorm | im just pretty new to ubuntu.. but seems sleek and efficient! | 14:55 |
| juano__ | thorm: your second step is if it isnt in the repositories, search for a .deb file of that app | 14:55 |
| thorm | ok | 14:55 |
| bazhang | thorm: and the support is top notch :} | 14:55 |
| thorm | oh yeah bazhang :) takes virtually seconds to get great support in here.. thumbs up | 14:55 |
| LjL | juano__, thorm: better make sure it's a .deb for Ubuntu, though, and not a .deb for Debian, because that may reserve ugly surprises, too, especially if it's a back-end or library instead of an end-user application | 14:56 |
| DaveMck | so, like I was saying... trying to mount /dev/md0 at startup. I've tried a few things, like adding it to /etc/fstab, but that's no good because the md service isn't running at that point. It was also suggested to try mounting it in rc.local, but that hasnt worked for me either... | 14:56 |
| juano__ | LjL thorm: right ^^ | 14:56 |

| LjL | !gutsy | zobban | 15:02 |
| ubotu | zobban: Ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy Gibbon) is the latest version of Ubuntu. Upgrading to Gutsy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GutsyUpgrades - Downloading: http://www.ubuntu.com/download - New Features: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/710tour - Please use bittorrent to download if possible, see !torrents | 15:02 |
| bazhang | 7.10 zobban | 15:02 |
| zobban | so is it difficutl to upgrade from 6.10 to 7.10 | 15:03 |
| LjL | zobban: a bit, because you need to go through 7.04 | 15:03 |
| LjL | you can't upgrade directly | 15:03 |
| zobban | ok i thought i just du apt get upgrade | 15:03 |
| joachi | apt-get upgrade is only available from 7.04 to 7.10. | 15:04 |
| LjL | apt-get upgrade is NOT the recommended method to upgrade, in any case. | 15:04 |
| zobban | so what to do to upgrade or not i am on 6.10 | 15:04 |
| LjL | zobban, you were sent instructions | 15:05 |
| zobban | yes it shows instructions but i dunno to upgrade or not | 15:05 |
| LjL | zobban, we can't decide for you. | 15:05 |
| zobban | well what do you think is it better to upgrade or not | 15:06 |
| kurt_ | is it possible to run some nice graphix games on virtualbox ? | 15:06 |
| zubuntu | um i don't want to be a pain, but a lot of new people have come in the channel, so i seem to have lost my application list, i can still run them through the run dialog, bit the dialog won't list my known apps, or rather it lists none just white space, and they also don't show up in my main menu, or in the menu bar (i added it to check) | 15:06 |
| LjL | kurt_: it won't let you use 3D games at anything close to an acceptable speed. | 15:06 |
| zobban | dont use virtualbox its so slowly to run virtual box i never like to have virtualbox | 15:06 |
| kurt_ | can't get a game running on cedega transgaming | 15:06 |
| san| | I have an FTP connection with GnomeVFS. This works but gedit can open files only in read only mode.. scribes (another text editor) can modify these files... anyone a clue why? | 15:06 |
| LjL | kurt_: tried plain WINE? | 15:06 |
| === chronosx is now known as chronosx_coding_ | ||
| kurt_ | tried to install a game via wine but installing takes forever | 15:07 |

| kurt_ | crossover works too but for some games it does not find an aspi layer | 15:07 |

| alemones | Hi Guys, I would need help with getting Wide-screen res 1280x800 on a laptop. Can anyone help me? | 15:08 |
| MrHippocampus | !ntfs3g | DEadPuNk | 15:08 |
| ubotu | DEadPuNk: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions | 15:08 |
| kurt_ | btw i own the game spellforce , i know it excist for linux too but is it possible to add some files too my pc version of the game so it runs in linux | 15:09 |
| kurt_ | like they did with quake 2 i believe | 15:09 |
| LjL | kurt_: VMWare may be a better option than VirtualBox, since it has (experimental) Direct3D support. However, VMWare is not available in the official repositories... VMWare Server is in Canonical's commercial repositories, but i don't think it supports Direct3D (couldn't swear on it). VMWare Player does, i don't know if anybody provides a package for it. | 15:11 |
| white_eagle | !VirtualBox | 15:12 |

| Jack_Sparrow | Shimfs: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-sorg is the basic way to set the vidoe and get to your gui | 15:20 |
| DaveMck | anyone know how to get the mdadm 'service' running at bootup? | 15:20 |

| Shimfs | Jack_Sparrow, thank you | 15:20 |

| white_eagle | |_ocke: oh jeez | 15:21 |
| |_ocke | and thats what i've been ever since | 15:21 |
| Shimfs | Jack_Sparrow, i shall try that. Thank you | 15:21 |

| |_ocke | so this nick is more than 13 years old | 15:21 |
| kurt_ | does anyone know where to download aspi layer for linux | 15:21 |
| vincenz | Ok, I confirm, there is -definitely- something wrong with the latest update to gutsy | 15:21 |
| Milotin | i can`t start my networkd connection because my dns ip are not good | 15:21 |
| minus | Ehm.. I have a page on my server that is set to charset UTF-8. If I set Firefox in ubuntu to use UTF-8, all the special chars are questionmarks instead. Why is this? | 15:21 |
| Milotin | how may i find out what dns to use ? | 15:21 |
| white_eagle | |_ocke: I've got 16 years | 15:21 |
| Shimfs | jack_sparrow. It says xserver-sorg is not installet | 15:21 |
| vincenz | I intsalled from the gutsy cd and everything worked fine. Then I updated to the latest pacages, and I'm getting the same bugs again as yesterday, when I log in, gnome flashes and then I get hdd | 15:22 |
| |_ocke | white_eagle, really? i thought that IRC has only existed since 93.. | 15:22 |
| minus | I used "ISO-8859-15" as charset on the page and Iso 8859-1 as decoding in firefox, and then it worked. | 15:22 |
| minus | But I want UTF-8 | 15:22 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Shimfs typop.. hold on | 15:22 |
| Shimfs | Jack_Sparrow, ahh ok :P :) | 15:22 |
| brobostigon | milotin: your dns servers are define in /etc/resolv.conf, and some other places but cant rememeber. | 15:22 |
| Jack_Sparrow | sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 15:22 |
| |_ocke | so what server were you on in 1991? | 15:23 |
| Shimfs | Jack_Sparrow, ahh that worked :P | 15:23 |
| Milotin | in etc/resolv.conf are the dns from my past connection the one with the static ip | 15:23 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Shimfs: Sorry, typing with one hand and trying to get down my first cup of coffee.. my bad | 15:23 |

| Milotin | brobostigon i know someone told me the dns from my terminal... | 15:23 |
| |_ocke | meh :P | 15:24 |
| Shimfs | Jack_Sparrow, ahh okay :P then you must be from america or something like that :P | 15:24 |
| zubuntu | i have been searching the forums, and i can't find anything relevant to my problem, is there anywhere else I can go for support? | 15:24 |
| SAngeli | is it sage to use xorg-edit to edit and better my nvidia gpu settings? I am using Ubuntu 7.10 | 15:24 |
| brobostigon | milotin: its one of the config files for dhcp, have a look in /etc/dhcp*, i cant remeber | 15:24 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Shimfs: Something like the Americas yes | 15:24 |
| brobostigon | i think?? | 15:24 |
| Milotin | so they should be the same ? | 15:24 |
| bitsbam | hey gents, i have to replace a cratered hard drive on a compaq/hp notebook, do they use standard hardware like what i can get at newegg, or do i have to get one special from hp? | 15:24 |
| taufik | hallo all | 15:24 |
| vincenz | Does anyone know why updating to the latest gutsy makes X behave so strangely? | 15:24 |
| Milotin | i found them in /etc/ppp | 15:25 |
| taufik | somebody can help me | 15:25 |
| brobostigon | milotin: i dont know, not sure. | 15:25 |
| Shimfs | Jack_Sparrow, ahh white eagle says that the first time he booted ubuntu with gusty, it took 5 minutes with black screen | 15:25 |
| MrHippocampus | DaveMCK: have you made sure the mdadm service starts at boot time? "update-rc.d mdadm boot" i think | 15:25 |
| taufik | i have i problem | 15:25 |
| DaveMck | MrHippocampus: Yeah, just looking at that now! | 15:26 |
| SAngeli | is it sage to use xorg-edit to edit and better my nvidia gpu settings? I am using Ubuntu 7.10 | 15:26 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Shimfs: depends on your hardware... But that command I gave is golden for when you make a res change and cant get back in | 15:26 |
| DaveMck | MrHippocampus: I don't have an /etc/init.d/mdadm file though | 15:26 |
| taufik | #wanda | 15:27 |
| DaveMck | MrHippocampus: so i just get "update-rc.d: /etc/init.d/mdadm: file does not exist" | 15:27 |
| Jack_Sparrow | SAngeli: NOt sure what you are trying to do, but make sure you have a copy of your xorg.conf first | 15:27 |
| nmbooker | hello all | 15:27 |
| MrHippocampus | DaveMcK: if you look at the file list in http://packages.ubuntu.com/gutsy/admin/mdadm it says it should be there | 15:28 |
| Jack_Sparrow | bitsbam: Only some of those are propietary.. not sure of that particular one. | 15:28 |
| taufik | i have a problem with sound | 15:28 |
| TheEagle | is it possible to run microsofr office 2007 on ubuntu with wine? | 15:28 |
| SAngeli | Jack_Sparrow: I have my monitor setting at 60Hz but ubuntu shows 50. So, i thought to set it up properly | 15:28 |
| taufik | my soundcard is not work | 15:28 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !find mdadm | 15:28 |
| brobostigon | theeaglr: i think it should wrk, not tried though?? | 15:28 |
| vincenz | For some reason, when I sintall gutsy from the gutsy install cd, everything works fine. But when I update to the latest updates, my X starts acting relaly odd like the problem I had last night. So it's definitely something in one of the update packages. | 15:28 |
| ubotu | Found: mdadm | 15:28 |
| zonianos | p | 15:28 |
| Shimfs | i am reconfiguring my xorg | 15:29 |

| Shimfs | now i am going to chose a mouse port | 15:29 |
| Shimfs | but i use a synaptic touchbad | 15:29 |
| Jack_Sparrow | SAngeli: np just make a backup before you start, and know how to restore it with cp or sudo nano from cli | 15:29 |
| Shimfs | touchpad | 15:29 |
| larson9999 | TheEagle, i doubt it. older versions, yes. i bet if 2007 runs it has lots of bugs | 15:29 |
| brobostigon | theeagle: not sure, but should work, not tried though. | 15:29 |
| bullgard4 | I do not understand line 340 in http://ubuntuusers.de/paste/23981/. Why is it necessary to test the existence of the file 85-anacron.sh instead of simply trying to run it? | 15:29 |
| nmbooker | i've got one of these iitronics MP3 players from Argos, and I copy some MP3 files to it, but the ID3 data (title etc) is displayed with Chinese characters and the usual generic "Box" character. Any ideas why? | 15:29 |
| taufik | i'm new | 15:29 |
| Shimfs | is that, psaux, ttyS0, tts0 or gpmdata | 15:29 |
| SAngeli | Jack_Sparrow: sure | 15:29 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Shimfs: just accept the defaults for anything else... | 15:29 |
| wanda | Word hier alleen Eng Ge chat | 15:29 |
| vincenz | wanda: ja | 15:29 |
| MrHippocampus | DaveMcK: when I installed mdadm on my desktop (other side of the country atm unfortunately) it automatically worked on boot up | 15:30 |
| Shimfs | Jack_Sparrow, there was no default, its a drop down kind of list | 15:30 |
| nmbooker | (on the player's display that is, not on the PC) | 15:30 |
| Shimfs | Jack_Sparrow, but i pick mouse then | 15:30 |

| alemones | Hi guys, thanks, I already identified the problem: I have version 6.06 and only from 6.10 I can use the higher resolution of 1280x800, because I have intel 915 graphics... | 15:32 |
| T1m0thy | Good thing I haven't updated. | 15:32 |
| DaveMck | MrHippocampus: Thanks, I didn't install the ubuntu package, i got mdadm from the source website. I'll try with the correct package :D | 15:32 |
| vincenz | wanda: try ubuntu.nl ? | 15:32 |
| zubuntu | is there a way i can refresh/recreate/rebuild my application list? | 15:32 |
| alemones | can I upgrade from 6.06 to 7 without big mess? | 15:32 |
| wanda | ja ik ben dutch graag een link | 15:32 |
| Jack_Sparrow | alemones: No, you must do them in order | 15:32 |
| MrHippocampus | DaveMck:Ah, that would explain it, yes, the ubuntu package automagically detects and sets them up :) | 15:33 |

| alemones | Thanks JACK, then I need to burn the ISO image and start from scratch? | 15:33 |
| Shimfs | white_eagle, you said the first time it took 5 minutes before your screen would show anything. How did you make sure it did not take that long, the second time? | 15:33 |
| DaveMck | MrHippocampus: What would have been the correct way to obtain mdadm? I searched through the add/remove packages thing to no avail, which is why I ended up installing manually | 15:33 |
| white_eagle | Shimfs: I haven't done anything | 15:34 |
| TheEagle | can someone help me with wine | 15:34 |
| vincenz | Is it a known problem that updating breaks X? | 15:34 |
| Shimfs | white_eagle, okay | 15:34 |
| white_eagle | #wine | 15:34 |
| Jack_Sparrow | alemones: Fresh installs always work better, but if you really want to save your setup you upgrade one by one.. | 15:34 |
| TheEagle | white_eagle: i know what wine is - i just need some help with something | 15:34 |
| white_eagle | tell | 15:34 |
| TheEagle | i keep getting a message when i try to run an exe | 15:34 |
| TheEagle | ill paste in the pastebimn | 15:34 |
| Jack_Sparrow | vincenz: Occasionally yes, but easy enough to reset your res X from cli recovery mode | 15:35 |
| alemones | JACK - thanks a lot, what do you mean one by one? download all the updates? | 15:35 |
| vincenz | Jack_Sparrow: how? | 15:35 |
| MrHippocampus | DaveMck: the synaptic package manager lists all of the packages, the ones in add/remove are typically just GUI ones | 15:35 |
| Milotin | can someone tell that if it's normal this : yesterday my network connection didn`t worked but the sound yes. when i managed to solve my network problem the sound crashed and when i tried to solve the sound the network crashed | 15:35 |
| vincenz | Jack_Sparrow: even dpgk-reconfigure does not fix it | 15:35 |
| Milotin | i guess is some sort of conflict between them | 15:35 |
| Milotin | can someone help me fix this ? | 15:35 |
| Shimfs | Jack_Sparrow, apparently, it just takes a LONG time to boot. because after some minutes the screen was no longer black. But we are talking very much above average boot time for any OS :P | 15:35 |
| bullgard4 | I do not understand line 340 in http://ubuntuusers.de/paste/23981/. Why is it necessary to test the existence of the file 85-anacron.sh instead of simply trying to run it? | 15:35 |
| mrbrdo | hey, i have a small problem with XSP2 and MONO. It works fine if i start with "xsp2", but when i start with "/etc/init.d/mono-xsp2 start" it doesn't work. why? | 15:35 |

| noogen | Shimfs: have you try without splash and with irqpoll? that speed it up for me | 15:36 |
| Jack_Sparrow | vincenz: then you are not getting the settings right, set it to vesa mode 1024 max to get back basic gui... then you can up the res and setup your correct video card etc... Usually ATI have that problem | 15:36 |
| Shimfs | noogen, and how to chose that? | 15:36 |
| T1m0thy | I should not update to the newest kernel, correct? | 15:36 |
| noogen | actually i don't know about the desktop livecd | 15:37 |
| TheEagle | i have downloaded the MSVCR80.DLL but have no idea where to put it | 15:37 |
| TheEagle | http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49419/ | 15:37 |
| noogen | i don't think it has the option | 15:37 |
| noogen | i use the server livecd | 15:37 |
| MrHippocampus | DaveMck: glad i could help :) | 15:37 |
| noogen | hehe sorry | 15:37 |
| vincenz | Jack_Sparrow: hwo does that explain the mad hdd behaviour | 15:37 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Shimfs: Then something is hanging it up.. you should be able to remove quiet from boot/grub/menu.lst and see what the problem is | 15:37 |
| Shimfs | Jack_Sparrow, okay | 15:37 |
| noogen | oh so you still having problem with boot? | 15:37 |
| Jack_Sparrow | vincenz: look n the wiki for an issue on hdd for some laptops | 15:38 |
| === borsanza is now known as BorSanZa | ||
| Jack_Sparrow | TheEagle: #winehq can help with those questions | 15:38 |
| vincenz | Jack_Sparrow: the issue is not with X, gdm works fine, the issue only appears after logging in | 15:39 |
| TheEagle | Jack_Sparrow: cheers | 15:39 |
| vincenz | Jack_Sparrow: and how can I go look on wiki if I don't have x. | 15:39 |
| white_eagle | Shimfs, so... | 15:39 |
| Hestv4_ | links? | 15:39 |
| vincenz | browsing the web in 25 rows = impossible | 15:39 |
| Hestv4_ | oh no | 15:39 |
| Jack_Sparrow | vincenz: a different computer, a live cd there are ways.. | 15:39 |
| Hestv4_ | I do it just for fun | 15:39 |
| * vincenz pffts | 15:39 | |
| vincenz | This is the second time I get this problem | 15:39 |
| vincenz | Something's borked in a package | 15:39 |
| white_eagle | Shimfs, it works after waiting? | 15:40 |
| Jack_Sparrow | vincenz: Post a bug report and identify your hardware... | 15:40 |
| * vincenz has other priorities, and a borked system is not helping | 15:40 | |
| Shimfs | white_eagle, yes. I am trying to get it to boot faster now | 15:41 |
| Sentence | hi | 15:41 |
| Jack_Sparrow | vincenz: FYI, I keep a second linux install, basic everything, not upgraded on my drive for testing and backup purposes, I dont suppose you have any sort of backup to of your system | 15:41 |
| Sentence | someone can recommend me an irc client for x windows with gui mode? | 15:41 |
| underdawg | is FLASH still broken? | 15:42 |
| Sentence | i tried xchat, konvesation, ksirc, anything else? | 15:42 |
| Jack_Sparrow | underdawg: yes from what I have heard | 15:42 |
| white_eagle | Shimfs: I tried that also, but can't get it to boot faster :(( stopped trying the second day | 15:42 |
| nonix4 | no, browsing the web in 25 rows isn't impossible... nor is fragging noobies w/ ttyquake, although 50+ rows is preferable | 15:42 |
| Shimfs | white_eagle, so you wait so long each time? | 15:42 |
| underdawg | Jack_Sparrow: thx for responding | 15:42 |
| underdawg | doh! | 15:42 |
| underdawg | !flash | 15:42 |
| ubotu | To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash | 15:42 |
| ubotu | The Flash plugin installation is currently broken. This is due to Adobe changing the tar file that the package downloads. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=636397 if you need to fix this immediately, but it's recommended to wait for an official fix. | 15:42 |
| white_eagle | white_eagle: no, I usually wait for 3 min. | 15:42 |
| white_eagle | oh | 15:42 |
| white_eagle | lol | 15:43 |
| Jack_Sparrow | underdawg: You can use the workaround... if you really must have flash... but please backup first | 15:43 |
| Shimfs | Jack_Sparrow, a guy said i should try to start the system without splash and with irqpoll. how to do so? | 15:43 |
| white_eagle | Shimfs: no, I usually wait for 3 min. | 15:43 |
| nmbooker | hi all again I think I've solved the problem with my MP3 player and ID3 tags -- I re-built the tag in easytag and it worked fine (english characters). | 15:43 |
| * underdawg is telling his teen to wait | 15:43 | |
| underdawg | ;) | 15:43 |
| nmbooker | The question is how can I do this from the command line? | 15:43 |
| simone | ciao a tutti | 15:43 |

| white_eagle | sorry | 15:46 |
| Jack_Sparrow | worldcitizen09: How did you install wine and where did you get the wine you installed | 15:46 |
| worldcitizen09 | i think this is because of my gigabye motherboard display driver via unichrome | 15:46 |
| alemones | bazhang: Hi, thx 4 your reply. The help says if I have 6.06 and a Intel 915 graphics, I can't use full screen.. So I want to get a higher version, but not reinstall all | 15:47 |
| newbieee | my panel is not working....how to get it back....i'm used xfce4-panel but again it disapear when i boot. | 15:47 |
| worldcitizen09 | Jack through automatix | 15:47 |
| zubuntu | NO, do not use automatix! | 15:47 |
| worldcitizen09 | then | 15:47 |
| Jack_Sparrow | worldcitizen09: Then insert the livecd and reinstall Ubuntu.. what you did messed everything up | 15:47 |
| bazhang | alemones: well you can upgrade via the web, but it is a long haul... | 15:47 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !automatix | 15:48 |
| ubotu | automatix is not recommended, supported or needed. See http://mjg59.livejournal.com/77440.html and « /msg ubotu WorksForMe » | 15:48 |

| Jack_Sparrow | alemones: update and upgrades are different | 15:49 |
| alemones | :( | 15:49 |
| alemones | ok, then I should reinstall all... | 15:49 |
| bazhang | alemones: first back up | 15:49 |
| MrHippocampus | DavidMcK: good to hear :) | 15:49 |
| Jack_Sparrow | alemones: I would dl 7.10 before trying to upgrade through all the releases | 15:49 |
| worldcitizen09 | Jack fine, went to the page | 15:49 |
| worldcitizen09 | How should I install wine then? | 15:49 |

| TheEagle | is it possible to run office 2007 on ubuntu? | 15:50 |
| bazhang | alemones: lots to back up? | 15:50 |
| Jack_Sparrow | worldcitizen09: WIne is in our repos... very easy to install it .. the right way... You cant JUST install it the right way now.. Your system has been comprimised | 15:50 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !wine | 15:50 |
| ubotu | WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information, and see !AppDB for application compatibility. | 15:50 |
| worldcitizen09 | I did this through usual method as you suggested | 15:51 |
| Jack_Sparrow | TheEagle: No.. even crossover office does not support that yet | 15:51 |
| kbrooks | Jack_Sparrow, do u mean hacked, or? | 15:51 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !info wine | 15:51 |

| kbrooks | alemones, you will not. | 15:52 |
| worldcitizen09 | Jack did you get the message about Picassa | 15:52 |
| alemones | bazhang: not by now | 15:52 |
| alemones | hm | 15:52 |
| nonix4 | alemones: usually smaller hassle than upgrading multiple releases... well, in general :) | 15:52 |
| Jack_Sparrow | worldcitizen09: You also did not read what automatix does to your system | 15:52 |
| andreas_ | i have a folder on my windows partition, the permissions for others are forbidden, and i want to delete the folder but i can't. Can anyone help me? | 15:52 |

| Jack_Sparrow | TheEagle: no | 15:53 |
| alemones | Last one , 7.04 or 7.10 better? | 15:53 |
| worldcitizen09 | the system hangs and i reinstalled a few times already but the same issues remain whatever way i installed wine | 15:53 |
| TheEagle | Jack_Sparrow: Why Not? | 15:53 |
| todd_ | TheEagle: Try OpenOffice... its much better | 15:53 |
| worldcitizen09 | I forgot about screen savers | 15:53 |
| bazhang | alemones: definitely in time for this xmas :} | 15:53 |
| Jack_Sparrow | TheEagle: ask in winehq... it does not work that way and does not support that release of office anyhow | 15:53 |
| Shimfs | Jack_Sparrow, i have tried to find the splash and with irqpoll things in the menu.lst but i cant find them | 15:53 |
| Milotin | can someone tell that if it's normal this : yesterday my network connection didn`t worked but the sound yes. when i managed to solve my network problem the sound crashed and when i tried to solve the sound the network crashed | 15:53 |
| alemones | bazhang: :) I hope so! | 15:53 |
| Milotin | i guess is some sort of conflict between them | 15:53 |
| worldcitizen09 | they too give a lot of problem and many of them dont display well or hand the system. | 15:53 |
| Milotin | can someone help me fix this ? | 15:53 |

| noogen | hehe | 15:54 |
| vishal | Hi, Can some one help me install realvnc please | 15:54 |
| todd_ | TheEagles: Your bet bet, install it again through wine | 15:54 |
| bazhang | alemones: what hardware? ram? | 15:54 |
| Jack_Sparrow | alemones: I like 7.04 | 15:54 |
| nonix4 | alemones: well the approach I prefer is installing new releases alongside in another partition and moving the useful data over... | 15:54 |
| Jack_Sparrow | todd_: he tried that it didnt work | 15:54 |
| TheEagle | noogen_: is it free | 15:54 |
| TheEagle | todd_: yes i tried it | 15:55 |
| worldcitizen09 | Jack I had 7.04 and 6 versions earlier but there was no problem wih wine on the same system | 15:55 |
| alemones | It's a Sony Vaio laptop, 512 Ram, Centrino 1.6 Ghz, 80 GB, got win Xp too | 15:55 |
| nonix4 | ... but then again I have separate /home partition so that is mostly trivial :) | 15:55 |
| Jack_Sparrow | nonix4: I agree... | 15:55 |
| worldcitizen09 | i think there is a problem with gusty | 15:55 |
| Jack_Sparrow | worldcitizen09: | 15:55 |
| alemones | JACK thanks | 15:55 |
| todd_ | Jack_Sparow: If that dident work,... you are going to have a HARDER time with your other HD | 15:55 |
| noogen | TheEagle: yes, but it's virtualization, will need you to install windowsxp | 15:55 |
| Jack_Sparrow | worldcitizen09: sorry.. you have used automatix.. end of story.. it isnt something you can uninstall or easily fix... | 15:55 |
| Pir8 | Folks I have a question. Since yesterday I started getting a problem where after I boot into ubuntu, the pc just freezes. | 15:56 |
| TheEagle | noogen: i already have xp on another harddrive - does that count | 15:56 |
| noogen | TheEagle: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=433359 | 15:56 |
| bazhang | worldcitizen09: automatix is the problem | 15:56 |
| noogen | nope | 15:56 |
| Pir8 | Is there any log files etc that I could maybe look at that could identify why it freezes ? | 15:56 |
| alemones | Bye guys | 15:56 |
| Pir8 | what other checks/verification could I do ? | 15:56 |
| alemones | & THx | 15:56 |
| todd_ | is there an easy way to make a movie my screensaver (.flv and I'd like it to loop)? | 15:56 |
| vishal | TheEagle: why dont u just dual boot? | 15:56 |
| worldcitizen09 | Alright but the screen savers too give the same problem | 15:56 |
| worldcitizen09 | Without wine | 15:56 |
| TheEagle | vishal: i know i can do that - but i just wondered if it was possible | 15:57 |
| Jack_Sparrow | TheEagle: crossover office works very well.. but only up to 2004 if I remember correctly | 15:57 |
| Shimfs | Jack_Sparrow, one moment, going to use my wired internet on the laptop | 15:57 |
| vishal | TheEagle: i tried the same with success but a sligh problem in windows | 15:57 |
| TheEagle | Jack_Sparrow: what is crossover office | 15:57 |

| esteth | How do i give a user access to a bunch of files without changing who owns them? | 15:57 |

| Jack_Sparrow | vishal: vm will not run office 2007 either | 15:59 |
| esteth | Jack_Sparrow: I can't move these files. They're the /dev/input/event files | 15:59 |

| esteth | can i tell ubuntu to give a group permission to access everything inside a folder, even if a new file is added to that folder, i should get permissions on it? | 16:08 |
| vishal | shimfs the problem isnt the router but the computer. because it cant keep up to the top speed its routing all its power to boost the speed, the computer then loose power for other resources which causes it to hang, to by reducing the spped on the router it will not want the computer to connect at top speed | 16:08 |
| crush_groove | esteth, chmod --help in terminal | 16:08 |
| vishal | shimfs try turning of the encryption and see if that helps | 16:08 |
| worldcitizen09 | Jack one last thing, how can I register my name with password at this channel | 16:09 |
| vishal | sorry guys gonna go check on my lunch, shimfs message me when im back if you need more help | 16:09 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !register | 16:09 |
| ubotu | By default, only registered users can send private messages - Information about registering your Freenode nick can be found at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#userregistration | 16:09 |
| Shimfs_ | vishal, but then i cant use the router. because it requires that encryption, and its not me that controls th router | 16:09 |
| Shimfs_ | vishal, ok thanks vishal | 16:09 |
| noelferreira | hi have a pda (qtek 9100) and i want to synchronize it with gutsy. What should i do? | 16:09 |

| TheEagle | ok, cheers | 16:10 |
| Jack_Sparrow | TheEagle: and alien is not a good sloultion | 16:10 |
| TheEagle | What's alien | 16:10 |
| soroush | hi, where can i restart apache or other service in Ubuntu? | 16:10 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !rpm | 16:10 |
| ubotu | RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous) | 16:10 |
| vishal | TheEagle: find out what version your using. when in windows go to start run, type in "winver" without the quotes, and find out weather it xp home, professional or media center, and also find out if its OEM or Retail | 16:11 |
| vishal | TheEagle: grab me what i come back after lunch | 16:11 |
| todd_ | is there an easy way to make a movie my screensaver (.flv and I'd like it to loop)? | 16:11 |

| lmosher | I'm trying to play some AVI files, and I get an error saying the file indicates it's a plain text file - does this sound like file corruption (I burned to DVD...) or lack of codec? | 16:13 |
| Jack_Sparrow | lmosher: were you able to play them before you burned them? | 16:14 |
| lmosher | Jack_Sparrow, On a windows PC, didn't try on Ubuntu | 16:15 |

| soroush | i got dc. | 16:15 |
| soroush | was there any answer to my q: how can i restart apache or other service in Ubuntu? | 16:16 |
| lmosher | Jack_Sparrow, I just used nero to burn, but perhaps the it didn't work - I didn't check. But it doesn't sound like a codec problem? | 16:16 |
| sergiu | hallo, salut, priwet, salam | 16:16 |
| rvega_arg | soroush: /etc/init.d/apache2 restart | 16:16 |
| J_Laptop | are there still scripts in /etc/init.d now that ubuntu uses upstart? | 16:16 |
| Jack_Sparrow | lmosher: To may possibilities any of which could have done it.. If it plays in windows.. then it is code c if not, it was the encryption or other burning issue | 16:17 |
| Jack_Sparrow | many | 16:17 |

| J_Laptop | I've run into the same problem | 16:20 |
| lmosher | Jack_Sparrow, Dunno why I didn't think of that earlier - file plays just fine in media player classic with CCCP codecs (for anime). So now, any ideas why it won't play in mplayer? | 16:20 |
| crush_groove | too | 16:21 |
| Andycasss | also, how to check current permissions (chmod) on dir? | 16:21 |
| soroush | rvega_arg, the one in system menu can't restart the services. thanks anyway | 16:22 |

| MrPiracy | lmosher: yes, won't install | 16:28 |
| jack | caravel: is totally lost ... lil more help please? | 16:28 |
| brobostigon | crush_groove: if there is an update to firefox in the ubuntu repos, sudo apt-get upgrade will update it. | 16:28 |
| lmosher | MrPiracy, Hrm I had no issues. You're trying to install vmware workstation? | 16:28 |
| WorkingOnWise | google "sync evolution Windows Mobile " | 16:28 |
| crush_groove | passes that to Jack | 16:29 |
| MrPiracy | lmosher: yes | 16:29 |
| komputes | VMWare only works on gutsy, if you compile it yourself | 16:29 |
| dickfacemanx | how do i look up my system specs??? | 16:29 |

| WorkingOnWise | noelferreira: u want to reinstall WM on you pda? | 16:30 |

| noelferreira | WorkingOnWise, yes | 16:31 |
| Andycasss | how to check current permissions (chmod) on dir? | 16:31 |

| WorkingOnWise | Gotta go. bbl | 16:32 |

| ikonia | Sharpie: what changed to stop it working ? | 16:46 |
| ikonia | Sharpie: eg: any updates | 16:46 |
| MrPiracy | i'm trying to get linux and all other programs to use onboard sound instead of c-media | 16:46 |
| Milotin | every website sends me to http://www.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Matrix:Main | 16:46 |
| Sharpie | ikonia: if i knew that i wouldn't be here | 16:46 |
| ikonia | Sharpie: tell you what, help your self. I'm tired of your smart answers while I'm trying to get any sort of facts out of you | 16:46 |
| Milotin | where i should search my soundcar manufacture | 16:46 |
| mular | hey I have two soundcards installed, general system sounds are working from the right one (soundblaster card) but wine insist on using the internal.. any ideas? | 16:47 |
| vishal | Milotin: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting?highlight=%28sound%29 ready the section under general help | 16:47 |
| Sharpie | ikonia: you're simply asking me if i know why the problem occures, if i knew that i wouldn't have come here :/ | 16:47 |
| vishal | Milotin: it talks about the sound device not found | 16:47 |

| Milotin | ok | 16:47 |
| vanderek | now i look at the catalyst informations and there is the correct driverversion but the catalyst control center version is 1.7 | 16:47 |
| ikonia | Sharpie: no, re-read what I said, eg: any updastes applied etc | 16:47 |
| vleon | im out of ideas, i installed the latest catalyst driver, ad 7.11 wich worked fine with a good xorg.conf (my manual configuration) and both composite and aiglx worked, now i removed it and installed all the latest kernel updates and on them the catalys 7.12 and it doesnt recognize my resolution 1680x1050 and compiz doesnt seem to work | 16:47 |
| vanderek | and not the 7.2 | 16:47 |
| MrPiracy | vishal: i'm trying to get linux and all other programs to use onboard sound instead of c-media | 16:47 |
| vishal | brb | 16:47 |
| Milotin | Failure - You will have not found the driver for your soundcard chipset. (at the moment I cannot help you, but stay tuned!) | 16:47 |
| ikonia | Sharpie: as you are unable to report any technical details I'm attempting to pull them out of you | 16:47 |
| vanderek | can anybody help? | 16:47 |
| Sharpie | ikonia: but i don't know when it stopped working exactly, and there obviously have been updates sometime during its installation | 16:48 |
| vishal | MrPiracy: so you want to stop the c-media from giving out sound? | 16:48 |
| bazhang | vleon: that only works with red hat and suse | 16:48 |
| ikonia | Sharpie: right so the answer is "I don't know when it stopped working" | 16:48 |
| ikonia | Sharpie: not the trying to be smart attitude you're giving me | 16:48 |
| Sharpie | ikonia: alright :| | 16:48 |
| MrPiracy | vishal: i have a cordless phone attached to c-media so i use it only with programs like skype or msn or icq, all other sounds i want to come out from intel's HDA | 16:49 |
| * chtank sees this place has too many users to be of any help to anyone, I shall go elsewhere | 16:49 | |
| vleon | <bazhang>: i used this guide: http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Gutsy_Installation_Guide | 16:49 |

| MrPiracy | vishal: is there a way to choose with soundcard linux will use to play sounds? | 16:51 |
| Milotin | some the website can`t help me | 16:51 |
| lmosher | I can't get an AVI file to play. I have restricted/nonfree drivers installed, but when I play I just get an ugly green screen. What's strange is the icon shows a good image? | 16:52 |
| vishal | MrPiracy: sorry, im actually new to linux aswell, just started last wednesday lol | 16:52 |
| bazhang | lmosher compiz running? | 16:52 |
| vishal | Milotin: hmm, hold on | 16:52 |
| lmosher | lmosher, Yeah. I've never seen that as an issue before? | 16:52 |
| brobostigon | i have used linux for 7 years in various ways. | 16:52 |
| Sharpie | ikonia: btw, how can you run it manually? | 16:52 |
| bazhang | lmosher try disabling it first | 16:53 |
| ikonia | Sharpie: you need to setup a process that probes the init script links | 16:53 |
| lmosher | bazhang, Yeah I'll give that a shot | 16:53 |
| === XSource_ is now known as XSource | ||
| mular | any idea how to set a default soundcard with the program wine? if I disable onboard sound wine uses the right one but I like using skype with my onboard sound and everything else soundblaster card - but wine won't obey system sound preferences? | 16:53 |
| vishal | Milotin: type this into your terminal: aplay -l | 16:53 |
| lmosher | bazhang, nope, same thing | 16:53 |
| vleon | <bazhang> the guide said nothing | 16:53 |
| Sharpie | ikonia: nvm, anyway i manuallt update my initramfs, i'll reboot and see if it works | 16:53 |
| vishal | Milotin: and tell me what it says | 16:53 |
| Sharpie | ikonia: manually* updated* | 16:53 |
| MrPiracy | vishal: oh ok, no problem .... i'm gonna try to figure it out | 16:53 |
| ryker_ | can anyone help me, i applied updates, and now my file associations in gnome are all gone system wide | 16:53 |
| Milotin | oot@master:/proc/asound# aplay -l | 16:53 |
| Milotin | aplay: device_list:205: no soundcards found... | 16:53 |
| vishal | MrPiracy: sorry about that | 16:54 |
| bazhang | vleon: the 7.12 does not work with ubuntu iirc | 16:54 |
| vleon | only 7.12? | 16:54 |
| bazhang | vleon: 7.11 worked right? stick with it then | 16:54 |

| vleon | well thanks anyway | 16:55 |
| esteth | How do i tell nautilus that i don't freaking care if an application is currently using this device. I want it ejected. I don't want it to tell me i can't. I just want to eject the CD. | 16:55 |
| ikonia | esteth: I can guess you start by dropping the lanaguage | 16:55 |
| ikonia | esteth: there is no need for "freakin care" | 16:55 |
| MrPiracy | vishal: lol it was soooo easy, just got into SYSTEM / PREFS / SOUND | 16:56 |
| MrPiracy | vishal: just like windows | 16:56 |
| mular | so no one knows if you can set a default soundcard with wine? | 16:56 |
| ikonia | esteth: in regard to your problem, an application is using the device so it won't allow you to eject the cdrom as it's in use | 16:56 |
| esteth | sorry, i wasn't aware most people treated that as "language" It's just a term for exaggerated anger here. | 16:56 |
| sas3 | hey. im looking for a remote backup soloution that i can also control and verify that its backed up... i saw backuppc .. is that good enough or what is the most popular software for linux today? | 16:56 |
| ikonia | esteth: it's totally uncalled for attitude | 16:56 |
| dagon^ | hay guys | 16:56 |
| ikonia | mular: some guys in #winehq will know off the top of their head | 16:57 |
| mular | ah ok thanks for the tip | 16:57 |
| luckybamboo | can someone please take a look at his folder /usr/share/fonts/truetype and tell me who is the owner of the subfolder and which rights? | 16:57 |
| esteth | ikonia: Sorry. I'm just getting frustrated. I want the CD to eject regardless of what's using it. Let that program crash if it needs to, but i want the CD back :S | 16:57 |
| ikonia | sas3: there are many backup programs, search through synaptic | 16:57 |
| vishal | MrPiracy: and it lets you select what application can use the souncard?? | 16:57 |
| ikonia | esteth: thats not possible as the OS puts a lock on it | 16:57 |
| sas3 | yeah. there is too many. i dont know what is the best | 16:57 |
| sas3 | :) | 16:57 |
| luckybamboo | i changed mine and forgot the original rights/owner | 16:57 |
| ikonia | sas3: thats personal opinion, it's hard to say what's the best | 16:57 |
| Sharpie | ikonia: still not working | 16:58 |
| esteth | ikonia: Is there any way to find out what's using the CD and kill it myself? | 16:58 |
| MrPiracy | vishal: it will let you choose which sound device you want to use for playing audio or for video conferencing | 16:58 |
| ikonia | sas3: you can range anything from tar through to say veritas netbackup and everything between | 16:58 |
| ikonia | esteth: fuser /dev/$your_cdrom_device ? | 16:58 |
| sas3 | what are you guys using? | 16:58 |
| ikonia | sas3: doesn't matter what we are using our needs may be different | 16:58 |
| morphles | is there any way to see what applications are accessing hdd ? | 16:58 |
| morphles | and how much/how often | 16:59 |
| ikonia | morphles: accessing it what way ? | 16:59 |
| vishal | MrPiracy: yeah, i just saw, thats a good future reference, glad you got it working | 16:59 |

| morphles | sometimes i getwierd hdd activity and id like to know what is responsible for that i just had one aind i gues it was clamav but i wish to be sure | 17:00 |
| bazhang | morphles: use top in the terminal | 17:00 |
| luckybamboo | hey, please tell me your settings of /usr/share/fonts/ | 17:00 |
| ikonia | morphles: ok - so I can suggest running iostat 2 in a window on boot, then when you start getting funny behaviour see if you can see what is happening on your disk | 17:00 |
| ikonia | morphles: that's a good way to start | 17:00 |
| morphles | k | 17:01 |
| MrPiracy | anyone know of a irc client better than xchat? | 17:01 |
| morphles | i checked with htop but it does not show hdd access o i couldnt tell | 17:01 |

| ikonia | morphles: xchat, bitchX, irrsi | 17:01 |
| ikonia | morphles: you pick | 17:01 |
| ikonia | morphles: try them | 17:01 |
| morphles | what? | 17:01 |
| ikonia | morphles: one step at a time | 17:01 |
| crush_groove | none are really better .. just different | 17:01 |
| === Moniker8241 is now known as Moniker42 | ||

| morphles | :) | 17:01 |
| ikonia | Sharpie: yes, | 17:01 |
| morphles | irssi is good :D | 17:02 |
| ikonia | Sharpie: there are multiple versions of xchat | 17:02 |
| Sharpie | ikonia: anyway, any ideas about the bootchart issue? | 17:02 |
| ikonia | Sharpie: I don't really want to debug it with you due to your attitude | 17:02 |
| Sharpie | ikonia: omg noez =[ | 17:03 |
| ikonia | Sharpie: I don't appriciate getting attitude from someone who is incapabable od detailing a problem then gets an attitude with me dor dragging the correct info out of him. Sorry | 17:03 |
| MrPiracy | ikonia: would you please repeat what you said? xchat .... ? | 17:03 |
| ikonia | MrPiracy: xchat (not xchat-gnome) irssi or bitchx - there are others but they are the mains | 17:03 |

| phil14 | bonjour | 17:04 |
| MrPiracy | ikonia: ok, thanks | 17:04 |
| morphles | argh silly me, that hdd probably was jus rtorrent in screen... | 17:05 |
| ikonia | morphles: well spotted | 17:05 |
| phade | maybe anybody got the perl llama ebook? | 17:05 |
| esteth | ikonia: Thanks. That command should have worked i think but didn't display anything. I got wine to do it with "wine eject" | 17:05 |
| SAngeli | Anyone, any idea? | 17:05 |
| ikonia | esteth: ahhhh so your cd is being controlled under wine ? | 17:06 |
| ikonia | esteth: it's probably wine as an application that's locking your cdrom | 17:06 |
| ikonia | esteth: probably | 17:06 |
| Sharpie | SAngeli: 1)add it to Sessions (under Preferences) | 17:06 |
| MrPiracy | ikonia: sorry, i'm 200% new to ubuntu, could you also tell me other good programs for torrent and a good audio player (does winamp work with linux?) | 17:06 |
| KaZeR | hi there | 17:07 |
| Sharpie | MrPiracy: my favorite music player is banshee, and azureus is good for torrents. deluge is good as well | 17:07 |
| KaZeR | Fatal server error: | 17:07 |
| KaZeR | No valid FontPath could be found. -> can anyone help? | 17:07 |
| ikonia | MrPiracy: mplayer, sound juicer, xmms - all audio players, there are many for you to try | 17:07 |
| ahmad | MrPiracy use amule | 17:07 |
| esteth | ikonia: I'm doing a multi-disk install under wine, but i was thinking perhaps wine was making a process that was blocking the CD-Drive or something. Obviously i didn't want to kill the installer itself. Maybe i should have been more specific with my original question | 17:07 |
| ikonia | MrPiracy: torrents, Hmmm, rtorrent seems to be a solid tool | 17:07 |
| ikonia | KaZeR: look in /etc/X11/xorg.conf and you'll see a path to fonts, if none are valid, X won't start | 17:07 |
| KaZeR | rtorrent is very nice | 17:07 |
| SAngeli | Sharpie: how to find the application if I only know the name of it? Example: I wish to autstart Pidgin. How would I go? | 17:07 |
| bazhang | transmission MrPiracy | 17:07 |
| StoneNote | if you're using kde, I recommend ktorrent | 17:07 |
| KaZeR | ikonia, what should i do to add thoses fonts? (i guess i'm missing a package) | 17:08 |
| ikonia | esteth: yup, wine looks a likley candidate, and yes, better to be up front in future, but no big deal | 17:08 |
| ikonia | KaZeR: is this a server install by any chance ? | 17:08 |
| m1 | whenever i turn on compiz, i cannot move a window above my screen. what do i need to do, so i can move windows to the top of my screen again?(using alt+drag window up) | 17:08 |
| Sharpie | SAngeli: use its bin name, for pidgin it's pidgin. if you wanna look for anything else you can look at the shortcut in the menu editor. | 17:08 |
| SAngeli | I see | 17:08 |
| MrPiracy | sharpie, ikonia, almad, bazhang: thanks | 17:08 |
| KaZeR | ikonia, kubuntu, install text-only, then installed xorg-server | 17:09 |
| bazhang | MrPiracy: no worries :} | 17:09 |
| ikonia | KaZeR: so your using a server install | 17:09 |
| ikonia | KaZeR: why are you using a server insall ? | 17:09 |
| MrPiracy | almad: is amule something like emule for windows? | 17:10 |
| KaZeR | ikonia, because i just need X, and a specific app. nothing else | 17:10 |
| ikonia | KaZeR: the desktop CD will be fine, your making it over complicated for yourself for no-reason | 17:10 |
| ahmad | yes amule like emule | 17:10 |
| ubuntux | someone know how i can print a cd cover ?? | 17:11 |
| MrPiracy | almad: ok | 17:11 |
| ikonia | ubuntux: print as in on to paper | 17:11 |
| KaZeR | ikonia, i don't see why i should install 100 packages if i don't need them.. | 17:11 |
| ubuntux | ikonia, har har, i need to print it at the right sizes etc | 17:11 |
| ikonia | KaZeR: because it's clear you won't be able to run the machine without the apporpirate tools | 17:12 |
| crush_groove | ubuntux, create it on your desktop .. use your printer software to crop or edit and print | 17:12 |
| ikonia | KaZeR: you'll find it easier to install the desktop, and it's not hundreds of packages, there are only a few between the server and desktop | 17:12 |
| crush_groove | ubuntux, you can import into gimp and edit also | 17:12 |
| edgy_ | hi, any one had a Dell XPS 1330 here? | 17:12 |
| ikonia | ubuntux: what format is the cd cover in, I suggest looking at inskape | 17:12 |
| osotogari | has anyone installed xbuntu on an Asus EEE? | 17:12 |
| ikonia | ubuntux: inkscpae has an option for cdrom covers | 17:12 |
| ikonia | edgy_: yes, on one now | 17:13 |
| KaZeR | ikonia, i just seem to lack a font package. you really can't jump from console to X install? | 17:13 |
| edunagin | Is this for UStudio? | 17:13 |
| ikonia | KaZeR: you'll have to downloads 100's of megs worth of packages to get a working desktop | 17:13 |
| ahmad | what is the bist pci dail up modem we can use on ubuntu | 17:13 |
| ikonia | edunagin: you can ask or try #ubuntustudio | 17:14 |
| vishal | vishal: | 17:14 |
| ikonia | KaZeR: as I said, it's less effort and pain to use the desktop cd | 17:14 |
| edunagin | How do I do that? | 17:14 |
| ikonia | KaZeR: rather than download 100's of megs of packages to get a desktop | 17:14 |
| ikonia | edunagin: ask your question here or type "/join #ubuntustudio" | 17:14 |

| jvm123 | hi. i use xorg v4.1 at the moment and never updated, because 4.2 broke my dual head configuration. now i tried ubuntu 7.10 on the live cd, because i heard of the new configuration tool. it detected both my monitors, but the options for using both of them at the same time are grayed out. any hint why? | 17:24 |
| ikonia | KaZeR: if you're new, all the more reason to take advice. I promise you the server install will not differ from the desktop, but the desktop will run better and be easier to maintain | 17:24 |
| vishal | can anyone help me with a hibernate issue? | 17:24 |
| Sharpie | !ask > vishal | 17:25 |

| ikonia | jvm123: xorg 4.3 doesn't exist | 17:26 |
| ikonia | jvm123: xorg is currently on release 7.X | 17:26 |
| ahmad | soory ? what do you mean ? | 17:26 |
| jvm123 | ikonia: sorry. | 17:26 |
| jvm123 | ikonia: s/4.1/7.1/ | 17:26 |

| jvm123 | ikonia: s/4.3/7.3/ | 17:26 |
| KaZeR | ikonia, thanks | 17:26 |
| ikonia | KaZeR: easier to sort that then help you do a crazy install | 17:27 |
| KaZeR | btw, i tried to hibernate, but network wasn't resumed after boot. what can i do? | 17:27 |

| LimCore | recent update gayified all my fonts - they are now very thin, is this a known problem? | 17:34 |

| ryansmith | atrophic: it's ntfs | 17:49 |
| white_eagle | eric2087: instead of adobe flash install gnash | 17:49 |
| ryansmith | atrophic: I'm trying to get firefly media server to work, but it needs to have read access for "nobody" | 17:49 |
| brobostigon | eric2087: i use a mac, no flash, except gnash, and for me gnash doesnt work at all, i use miro to watch youtibe vids. | 17:49 |
| xcasex | brobostigon: dude. | 17:50 |
| bullgard4 | English help wanted. The key combination Alt+F2 will call a dialog window. What is the English name of this dialog displayed in the first line? Is it 'Execute an application' or what is the exact English name? | 17:50 |
| Smurf-Slayer | Can someone here help me with a problem with Pidgen, where the GUI's don't show up? | 17:50 |
| xcasex | brobostigon: hairy har^K hardy heron does flash-nonfree ootb for me on my mbp santarosa | 17:50 |
| whaley | bullgard4: Run Application | 17:50 |
| bullgard4 | whaley: Thank you. | 17:50 |
| atrophic | ryansmith, use chmod to give permissions to everybody. You can type "man chmod" to get a feel for the syntax | 17:50 |
| brobostigon | xcasex: flash-nonfree doesnt exist for linux-powerpc | 17:51 |
| ryansmith | atrophic: won't I have to do that after every reboot? | 17:51 |
| il12 | I have a question (obviously) whenever you get a sec. | 17:51 |
| ryansmith | atrophic: there's no way to just edit /etc/fstab to mount it with the necessary permissions? | 17:51 |
| xcasex | brobostigon: ah. sorry to hear :( | 17:51 |
| LjL | skullhead: quite true. file a bug | 17:51 |
| LjL | !bugs > skullhead (skullhead, see the private message from Ubotu) | 17:51 |
| mular | used envy to install my videocard driver now.. hopefully that helps | 17:51 |
| brobostigon | only gnash | 17:51 |
| PointyThingsHurt | so for an ATI card, its best to use the restricted driver? | 17:51 |
| mular | I have p4 3.2gig and 2gigs of ram.. and a nvida 7800gt.. wouldn't think i have any slow down in ubuntu | 17:52 |
| atrophic | ryansmith, yes, there is. Check out the man page for the mount command, it's analogous to the options that go in fstab | 17:52 |
| nonix4 | How do I tell compiz to show the z-depth of the apps when middle-button rotating the cube? | 17:52 |
| qwaz | if im running fetchmail as a daemon, can i pass any arguments to it? like...'fetchmail -d -k 600? | 17:52 |
| brobostigon | use miro if flash doesnt work, thats my solution,may not be for everyone, but thats mine. | 17:52 |

| rangerguy39 | atrophic, how does the text-based installer work? | 17:53 |
| KiD_ChAoS | erUSUL, does that mean that i chose the wrong screen in screens and graphics? | 17:53 |
| atrophic | rangerguy39, it's a little more advanced than the graphical one, but default options will work the vast majority of the time. | 17:53 |
| rangerguy39 | is there a guide i can go by? im not good with advanced stuff =] | 17:54 |
| pacman2 | can someone please help me with a via82xx AC97' card? I have no sound | 17:54 |
| brobostigon | i prefer the text installer, it much easier and quicker for me, | 17:54 |
| erUSUL | KiD_ChAoS: no; that's an xorg.conf missconfiguration... but i dunno why. | 17:54 |
| Sharpie | pacman2: are your speakers on? | 17:54 |
| atrophic | I have a weird hard drive problem. Two of my hard drives (1 large ext3 partition on each) show up as unallocated space when I boot into my installed OS (gutsy). However, if I run a gutsy live CD I can mount them and they work fine. | 17:54 |
| pacman2 | yes | 17:54 |
| qwaz | if im running fetchmail as a daemon, can i pass any arguments to it? like...'fetchmail -d -k 600? | 17:54 |
| pacman2 | I am on a laptop with intigrated speakers | 17:54 |
| Sharpie | pacman2: did you check it's not muted? | 17:54 |
| pacman2 | Its not muted | 17:54 |
| eric2087 | after installing gnash it doesn't look like my about:plugins has changed | 17:55 |
| atrophic | rangerguy39, probably, but I don't have a link to one. Google it. If you run into trouble and have a separate computer there's always help available in this channel | 17:55 |
| abionnnn | whatever you do, don't try and use the latest ATI drivers :( | 17:55 |
| il12 | I need help with my sound as well. | 17:55 |
| antonsky | hi, ive installed alsa on my old feisty with selfcompiling | 17:55 |
| antonsky | than ive updated it to gutsy but alsa doesnt work anymore | 17:55 |
| rangerguy39 | atrophic, when i start the install, can you private message me and help a little? | 17:55 |
| Old_Gregg | Does anyone use Crossover? | 17:56 |
| pacman2 | can somebody please help me? I have been looking for 2 days stright for the issue | 17:56 |
| skullhead | LjL; ya i see it sorry should i run it in terminal and try and get it there or just tell them whats going on? | 17:56 |
| eric2087 | i go to youtube, i click a video and a popup saying i dont have the right plugins happens | 17:56 |
| atrophic | rangerguy39, I can't promise that. I won't be on the computer long. As I said though, it's still a relatively easy process, and people in here can help you if you're unsure of a choice. If in doubt the default is probably best though. | 17:56 |
| eric2087 | i just installed gnash | 17:56 |
| eric2087 | what do i need to do now? | 17:57 |
| Sharpie | eric2087: nothing | 17:57 |
| LjL | skullhead: yes, and include that output in your bug report | 17:57 |
| rangerguy39 | thanks | 17:57 |
| eric2087 | ok, well its not working so... what do u recommend? | 17:57 |
| guerby | hi, what's the best way to do an ubuntu repository mirror (for my extended LAN)? | 17:57 |

| qwaz | if im running fetchmail as a daemon, can i pass any arguments to it? like...'fetchmail -d -k 600? | 17:57 |
| brobostigon | eric2087: try miro, that works for me,as i cant get flash to work, you can download and wathc youtube vids with it. | 17:57 |
| kmac | pacman2: I had the same issue. I had to use the PCM and headset volume controls on one PC. | 17:58 |
| eric2087 | oh, so u cant watch vids in the browser with gnash? | 17:58 |
| tehm0nk | is there any channels for gaming? | 17:58 |
| giuseppe | hi, is it possible to see NTFD partition with kubuntu 7.10? | 17:58 |
| brobostigon | i cant | 17:58 |
| newbieee | my windows are appearing in all the pager...how do i fix them? | 17:58 |
| erUSUL | !ntfs | giuseppe | 17:58 |
| ubotu | giuseppe: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - For write access, see !NTFS-3g or !FUSE | 17:58 |
| atrophic | pacman2, please don't beg. Just state your problem and anybody that is able to help will. Have you checked the forums? If you ask your question there more people will see it, it just takes a little longer for a response. | 17:58 |
| giuseppe | !ntfs | 17:58 |
| qwaz | if im running fetchmail as a daemon, can i pass any arguments to it? like...'fetchmail -d -k 600? | 17:58 |
| Sharpie | !repeat | qwaz | 17:59 |
| ubotu | qwaz: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience | 17:59 |
| pacman2 | I have checked everywhere | 17:59 |
| pacman2 | and posted on the fourms | 17:59 |
| erUSUL | qwaz: how do you launch it? | 17:59 |
| teimu | pacman2, have you checked out http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=205449? the "comprensive sound guide"? | 17:59 |
| Dr_willis | qwaz, i imagind theres a fetchmail config you can set that stuff up in. Or check the fetchmail service rc script. | 17:59 |
| il12 | My sound is working little to none. Is there a recommended site for me to use in order to download the drivers for my sound? | 17:59 |
| pacman2 | ill look, I might have | 17:59 |
| qwaz | erUSUL: fetchmail -d 600 | 17:59 |
| kyu_flux | !patience | 17:59 |
| ubotu | The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines | 17:59 |
| qwaz | Sharpie: I wasn't repeating quickly, thanks though | 17:59 |
| brobostigon | !sound | il12 | 17:59 |
| ubotu | il12: 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 | 17:59 |
| Smurf-Slayer | Where can I go to get help with Pidgin GUI not showing up. I'm useing Kubuntu 7.10, but #kubuntu says it is GNOME and that I have to get help here. | 17:59 |
| eric2087 | this is seriously pissing me off | 18:00 |
| atrophic | qwaz, it was one minute apart :p | 18:00 |
| erUSUL | qwaz: and have you tried to add the other options you need? | 18:00 |
| qwaz | astro76: ok thanks | 18:00 |
| brobostigon | eric2087: use miro, | 18:00 |
| il12 | TY. | 18:00 |
| ryansmith | atrophic: I see how to change which persons are able to mount the drive, but the uid and gid stuff isn't thoroughly explained, which I assume is what I need to change to get the necessary permissions | 18:00 |
| brobostigon | eric2087: use miro to watch and download youtube vids. | 18:00 |
| qwaz | erUSUL: Yah, I just want to leave mail on the server with -k...and I can't tell if my blackberry fetching it is removing them for the server or if default fetchmail -d is | 18:01 |
| newbieee | my windows are appearing in all the pager...how do i fix them? | 18:01 |
| ryansmith | atrophic: or is it the umask? | 18:01 |
| Old_Gregg | I have alsa enabled. I have oss enabled. I have followed the CrossOver instructions on enabling ALSA in CrossOver, yet I STILL have no sound. | 18:01 |
| eric2087 | installing miro... | 18:01 |
| teimu | when trying to perform an ssh forward, the last output i get is "connecting to ...", then it times out in 20 seconds or so. Am I connected during this time? In other words, I am expecting some kind of connected message, but not seeing one. | 18:01 |
| erUSUL | qwaz: you can add those kind of things to the .fetchmailrc file iirc | 18:03 |
| buzz-cp | is anyone proficient with fluxbox? | 18:03 |
| Old_Gregg | Does anyone know anything about CrossOver and/or sound? | 18:03 |
| il12 | I have another question: I would like to install Wine and I follow the ReadMe instructions, but it does not work that I can tell. | 18:03 |
| qwaz | erUSUL: ok...digging into that, thanks | 18:03 |
| brobostigon | old_gregg: sorry, dont use crossover, i use wine | 18:03 |
| esteth | How would i flush the dns cache on ubuntu? | 18:04 |
| atrophic | ryansmith, the uid/gid stuff will mount it as a particular user or group (and thus they'll have owner permissions). That's probably your best bet. The umask sets up default permissions on new files. | 18:04 |
| buzz-cp | il12: try wine /path/to/windows/file.exe | 18:04 |
| eric2087 | this miro looks good only thing is i dont know how to get the videos from youtube | 18:04 |
| Old_Gregg | brobostigon: have you had any problems with it not letting more than one application use the sound driver at once? | 18:04 |
| eric2087 | i dont see a way to d/l the vids | 18:04 |
| ryansmith | Old_Gregg: I think crossover office has their own support system | 18:04 |
| steveire | Hi. I installed phpmyadmin and assumed it would put stuff in /var/www, but it didn't. How do I use it now? | 18:04 |
| il12 | buzz-cp: I'm afraid I've only begun to use linux a few days ago. Where do I enter this? in a terminal window? | 18:04 |
| eric2087 | plus its pretty lame u gotta d/l everyone then open it in a different app | 18:04 |
| eric2087 | but thats fine | 18:04 |
| buzz-cp | il12: yes | 18:04 |
| il12 | buzz-cp: ty | 18:04 |
| Old_Gregg | ryansmith: That's kind of a joke. When I go to their website and look up how to fix a problem, it's answers are like "You need to enable ALSA" and then goes on to the next question. It's like.. uh, okay, how? | 18:05 |
| bullgard4 | What is the terminal command to call the 'Run Application' dialog? (Alt+F2 equivalent) | 18:05 |
| buzz-cp | also you might get an ubuntu book or O'Reilly Linux in a nutshell. these are handy | 18:05 |
| basvg | hi all. Is there an easy way to make all newly created windows transperant... or to make all newly created urxvt's transperant? Running Gutsy here with 'visual effects' set to medium | 18:05 |
| steveire | anyone? | 18:05 |
| brobostigon | aric2087: at the bottom of miros window, you should be able to change the search to youtube, and then search. | 18:05 |
| ryansmith | Old_Gregg: don't they have a support line though? It's a non-free program. | 18:05 |
| Kevin` | what do I have to do to be able to play encrypted dvds in ubuntu? | 18:06 |
| pacman2 | teimu, I think you may have solved my issue | 18:06 |
| buzz-cp | ok is anyone good at fluxbox? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=647959 <-- my thread | 18:06 |
| pacman2 | Its still working, but it seems like it should work | 18:06 |
| eric2087 | where is the d/l video link on youtube? | 18:06 |
| eric2087 | when i click the picture it doesn't seem to take me to a point where i can d/l anything | 18:06 |
| Mohero | Hi all. | 18:07 |
| il12 | ok. I entered wine /path/to.windows.file.exe into the terminal. it said it wasn't installed, said to install type sudo apt-get install wine. I did that. it is asking for my admin password but won't type it. What do I need to do? | 18:07 |
| il12 | and that's path/to/window/file.exe** | 18:07 |
| eric2087 | youtube video download... how? | 18:07 |
| buzz-cp | il12: as you type the admin passwd it is hidden from view | 18:08 |
| bunky24 | where do i go to change the color of the text on my menu bar? | 18:08 |
| il12 | buzz-cp: so I wouldn't even get asterisks? | 18:08 |
| il12 | or bullets? | 18:08 |
| buzz-cp | il12: correct | 18:08 |
| teimu | pacman2, good luck | 18:08 |
| il12 | ok. good to know | 18:08 |
| brobostigon | eric2087: have a look on packages.ubuntu.com, there are a few youtube download progs. | 18:08 |
| Mohero | eric2087 you can't download video's on youtube, but we're not really here to help with that :) | 18:08 |
| Ol1 | Hi everybody! I have installed Ubuntu Studio 7.10 and have spent some time trying to figure out why it is so slow. It takes 15 seconds just to start up a simple program like Pidgin, Firefox or the file browser. It takes very long time to scroll. I have a 3.2Ghz CPU and 1GB RAM is this to little? Have I missed to do some nessesary tweaks? | 18:08 |
| Carb0n | eric2087: aptitude install youtube-dl | 18:08 |
| eric2087 | k | 18:08 |
| eric2087 | thx | 18:08 |
| Carb0n | Mohero: yes you can! | 18:08 |
| human | can anyone help me with wine soft | 18:09 |
| buzz-cp | il12: do you understand what I mean by /path/to/windows/exefile ? | 18:09 |
| Mohero | carb0n: i'll go quiet again then. :) | 18:09 |
| puli | hi | 18:09 |
| human | can anyone help me with wine soft?? | 18:09 |
| buzz-cp | OK so no fluxbox users? | 18:09 |
| eric2087 | i actually dont want to d/l them... but it seems to be the only way to watch them with miro | 18:09 |
| Carb0n | Mohero: hey, no offence. | 18:09 |
| eric2087 | or am i missing something... | 18:09 |
| il12 | buzz-cp: I'm afraid not. but this is working this far to install Wine. is there anything I should know about this before using it? | 18:09 |
| puli | hi guys is there any way to convert linux based pdfs to windows based pdfs | 18:09 |
| crush_groove | buzz-cp, /join #fluxbox | 18:10 |
| buzz-cp | crush_groove: thanks! | 18:10 |
| Mohero | in Miro, you just click the video to watch it eric2087 | 18:10 |
| human | can u help how to install it | 18:10 |
| buzz-cp | il12: you should have a better understanding of getting around in a shell / terminal window | 18:10 |
| eric2087 | yea... but how do u get the video there to be able to click on it? | 18:10 |
| dagon^ | human; what's the problem dude? :) | 18:10 |
| steveire | There doesn't seem to be an ubuntu-lamp package in ubuntu. Is this right? | 18:10 |
| Carb0n | eric2087: In the newer view click details to see the link! | 18:10 |
| buzz-cp | il12: which is why i suggested Linux in a nutshell | 18:11 |
| jaxt0r | puli: pdf's are OS independent, no need to convert | 18:11 |
| human | is wine in the installer or i have to download it | 18:11 |
| Carb0n | eric2087: last I checked, it was on the upper right corner. | 18:11 |
| Mohero | human: sudo apt-get install wine | 18:11 |
| buzz-cp | let's suppose your windows file is here: /media/sda1/Program\ Files/winamp/winamp.exe | 18:11 |
| bullgard4 | Ol1: I cannot give you an exact answer. May be the network connection waits for a timeout. Reboot your computer without a network connection and see if it becomes faster. This would give a hint if its slow response is due to your network connection. | 18:11 |
| dagon^ | human; have you done the 'sudo apt-get install wine' then eveything should be fine | 18:11 |
| Carb0n | eric2087: and don't forget youtube-dl package. You need it to download the videos. | 18:11 |
| il12 | buzz-cp: ty. I will definitely look for that. Christmas money put to good use. ;) will it work for most Linux distro's? | 18:11 |
| Mohero | human: it'll ask for your password, but doesn't "echo" anything back as you type it. | 18:12 |
| buzz-cp | il12 yea it's a general book | 18:12 |
| buzz-cp | an ubuntu book is good too | 18:12 |
| eric2087 | i dont understand... in the newer view of what? | 18:12 |
| bullgard4 | What is the terminal command to call the 'Run Application' dialog? (Alt+F2 equivalent) | 18:12 |
| eric2087 | ok... i'll get that package | 18:12 |
| Carb0n | eric2087: Can you open YouTube? Or are you just following a blind link? | 18:13 |
| human | this is the first time i am going to install linux | 18:13 |
| FurryNemesis | human, good luck | 18:13 |
| human | i dont know anything | 18:13 |
| basvg | hmm, guess hacking compiz is trickier than I thought :p | 18:13 |
| human | i just know how to install | 18:13 |
| il12 | buzz-cp: ok. will def. look for that, too. and from my understanding Ubuntu is the 'mother' to kubuntu and xubuntu and edubuntu, yes? so an ubuntu book would be pretty good for those as well? | 18:13 |
| FurryNemesis | human, I suggest you back up everything first | 18:13 |
| Ol1 | Thanks bullgard4 I shall try that. | 18:14 |
| human | ok | 18:14 |
| cav3man | help!! all my icons in my top bar keep jumbling up out of order!! make it stop!!! every time i start up :P | 18:14 |
| kmac | steveire: I don't know of a complete lamp package in ubuntu. Since you installed phpmyadmin, I would assume you already have apache and mysql installed, though... | 18:14 |
| dagon^ | human; it's easier to help you if you highlight | 18:14 |
| human | but what is apt? | 18:14 |
| FurryNemesis | !apt > human | 18:14 |
| buzz-cp | il12: yes an ubuntu book. those are really just sub-distros. they're all basically the same | 18:14 |
| brobostigon | !apt | human | 18:14 |
| ubotu | human: APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome) or !Adept (KDE) | 18:14 |
| FurryNemesis | gah | 18:15 |
| eric2087 | no, i'm going to youtube... it shows the pictures for the vids that u usually just click on to launch the video... unfortunately the picture is a link to a watch.html | 18:15 |
| eric2087 | ok... youtube-dl installed | 18:15 |
| il12 | buzz-cp: yay it's unpacking Wine now. ty so much. and I will definitely look for those books. | 18:15 |
| steveire | kmac: Yes. I have them installed, and I can see the default apache website phpmyadmin did not create anything in /var/www so http://localhost doesn't list it. I can't access it. | 18:15 |
| steveire | !lamp | 18:15 |
| ubotu | LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL.

| caveman24 | cane I get a few rcomendations for TV tuner cards that work in linux? | 18:15 |
| Carb0n | eric2087: Can you see the description of the video on the upper right corner? | 18:15 |
| nickrud | steveire, if you've installed phpmyadmin, you should find it at localhost/phpmyadmin | 18:16 |
| dagon^ | caveman24; hauppage WinTV | 18:16 |
| buzz-cp | il12: also here is the wine main site: http://www.winehq.org/ you should know that wine is not a graphical tool--it's a command-line tool | 18:16 |
| bunky24 | anyone know how to change the menu bars text/font color? | 18:16 |
| Carb0n | eric2087: if yes, click on the details (or more) link | 18:16 |
| caveman24 | does it get HD? | 18:16 |
| dagon^ | hmm | 18:16 |
| dagon^ | don't know | 18:16 |
| steveire | nickrud: Hmmm, how does that get there without a symlink in /var/www? | 18:16 |
| dagon^ | caveman24; haven't installed mine yet | 18:17 |
| human | ok | 18:17 |
| il12 | buzz-cp: meaning... I would be able to only run the more simple command-line based applications with it? | 18:17 |
| buzz-cp | well everyone is apparently asleep in #fluxbox | 18:17 |
| buzz-cp | il12: no it runs graphical windows programs, but you run wine from the command line. | 18:17 |
| human | but what i will have do with apt to get apt | 18:17 |
| Old_Gregg | I have an on-board soundcard I am using because there is no driver for my other one | 18:17 |
| caveman24 | setup isnt a problem, I just want hardware that works, ill look into that one, dont need HD, but it would be nice | 18:17 |
| il12 | buzz-cp | 18:17 |
| il12 | : aha. | 18:18 |
| Old_Gregg | how do I tell what soundcard it is in Ubuntu and how do I tell if I have the correct drivers for it? | 18:18 |
| brobostigon | human: apt is already in the base installation | 18:18 |
| eric2087 | this is exactly what i'm looking at... if u go to youtube right now... the top video is a beer xmas tree video... to the top right of the picture it says, "Beer Tree: The Ultimate Christma..." is this what u are talking about? | 18:18 |
| human | ok | 18:18 |
| dagon^ | caveman24; according to my research Hauppage WinTV is great for linux, has better drivers and such | 18:18 |
| Old_Gregg | I have an on-board soundcard I am using because there is no driver for my other one. How do I tell what soundcard it is in Ubuntu and how do I tell if I have the correct drivers for it? | 18:18 |
| il12 | buzz-cp: so, it says ldconfig deferred processing now taking place. So I just wait? because it has the il@il-laptop:-$ line up.. | 18:19 |
| caveman24 | cheap? | 18:19 |
| dagon^ | Old_Gregg; I just run alsa and it works, I'm no linux-geek but that's how I've done all the time | 18:19 |
| nickrud | steveire, it's defined in /etc/apache2/conf.d/phpmyadmin, it uses apache's directives to remap that address | 18:19 |
| buzz-cp | il12: wait until you get the prompt back | 18:19 |
| Old_Gregg | dagon^: I have been doing that, but it's very grainy. | 18:19 |
| dagon^ | hmm | 18:19 |
| Carb0n | eric2087: No. and I can't browse youtube now. I ask again, what is it that you want to do? | 18:19 |
| il12 | buzz-cp: I thought this was the prompt, but then again I know next to nothing on this system. | 18:20 |
| human | i have motorola v360 which i use as a modem of internet is there any modem dirver on this set is included on apt ? | 18:20 |
| human | i have motorola v360 which i use as a modem of internet is there any modem dirver of this set is included on apt ? | 18:20 |
| il12 | buzz-cp: I don't mean this window. but the il@il-laptop: was the prompt, or so I thought. | 18:20 |
| human | sorry | 18:20 |
| Carb0n | eric2087: what is it that you want to download? | 18:20 |
| eric2087 | i just want to watch the videos... preferably in the browser to minimize the number of steps | 18:20 |
| Old_Gregg | Does anyone else have 5-10 second lock-ups when they are running WoW and anything else? When I have World of Warcraft running and anything else open in the background, every few minutes, Ubuntu locks up for about 5-10 seconds. | 18:20 |
| eric2087 | click and watch... that is my goal | 18:20 |
| eric2087 | ie... the way its "supposed" to work | 18:20 |
| steveire | nickrud: I see. Thanks | 18:21 |
| buzz-cp | il12: il@il-laptop: is your prompt | 18:21 |
| Carb0n | eric2087: OK. gotcha. You need to install flashplayer-nonfree | 18:21 |
| brobostigon | eric2087: thats if flash works. | 18:21 |
| buzz-cp | il12: if you know the location of your windows executable, then you can launch it with wine. | 18:21 |
| human | i have motorola v360 which i use as a modem of internet is there any modem dirver of this set is included on apt ? | 18:21 |
| eric2087 | since i cant seem to watch them... and since u said to use miro... and since miro seems to require that u have the video d/l therefore i was asking about how to d/l the video so i could watch it in miro | 18:21 |
| il12 | buzz-cp: so this means it's finished and I can just enter the directory, etc and launch it? | 18:21 |
| brobostigon | human: have a look at the forums and then packages.ubuntu.com | 18:22 |
| eric2087 | flash player install does work at the moment | 18:22 |
| eric2087 | does NOT work | 18:22 |
| human | ok chacking | 18:22 |
| Carb0n | eric2087: I didn't say to use "miro" (what is that?). Someone else did. I thought you wanted to download flash videos. sorry. | 18:22 |
| eric2087 | oh... its a video watcher | 18:23 |
| eric2087 | really i just want to watch the vid in the browser | 18:23 |
| Carb0n | eric2087: like totem? | 18:23 |
| eric2087 | that would be fine | 18:23 |
| dagon^ | eric2087; what's your problem man? :) | 18:23 |
| dagon^ | can't watch youtube? | 18:23 |
| eric2087 | lol | 18:23 |

| eric2087 | this is what happens | 18:23 |
| eric2087 | i open firefox | 18:24 |
| eric2087 | i go to youtube | 18:24 |

| eric2087 | additional plugin required to display all the media on this page | 18:24 |
| Old_Gregg | erUSUL: Clearly not, been asking for WoW specific help for 3 days. | 18:25 |
| dagon^ | eric2087; FF should prompt you to install flashplayer and you should be able to click yes a few times to install it | 18:25 |
| Dr_willis | Old_Gregg, if you have a question about Wine and WoW - you may want to check out the various wine forums. and the Wine channels. | 18:25 |
| Old_Gregg | Dr_willis: How did you install it? | 18:25 |
| eric2087 | i cant seem to get it to install the plugins needed | 18:25 |
| Carb0n | eric2087: aptitude install flashplugin-nonfree | 18:25 |
| erUSUL | Old_Gregg: maybe noone has encounter your problem so they do not know how to help you | 18:25 |
| Dr_willis | Old_Gregg, I copied the WoW dir over from my windows install. | 18:25 |
| Old_Gregg | Dr_willis: I am using CrossOver to install it, should I use Wine? | 18:25 |
| dagon^ | my problem with flash is in Opera | 18:25 |
| erUSUL | !patience | Old_Gregg | 18:25 |
| Dr_willis | Old_Gregg, I would use the latest wine or Cedega. | 18:26 |
| Carb0n | dragon^: Is flashplugin-nonfree in medibuntu or what? | 18:26 |
| ubotu | Old_Gregg: The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines | 18:26 |
| Dr_willis | Crossover is tweaked for Office and other apps. not games. | 18:26 |
| buzz-cp | il12: if you know the path to your windows exe yes | 18:26 |
| dagon^ | Carb0n; please tab the nicks, I haven't got a single 'r' in my nick :) | 18:26 |
| Old_Gregg | Dr_willis: Are you busy? I am brand new to linux and have not been able to use my $900 computer since I bought it last weekend. I just want to play WoW and run Ventrilo. That's it. | 18:27 |
| eric2087 | md5sum mismatch install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.gz | 18:27 |
| eric2087 | The Flash plugin is NOT installed. | 18:27 |
| Carb0n | dagon^: my mistake. sorry. | 18:27 |
| Dr_willis | Old_Gregg, I dont play WoW any more.. and Im not sure how well wine supports Ventrillo. | 18:27 |
| dagon^ | Carb0n; no need to excuse :) common mistake :P | 18:27 |
| erUSUL | eric2087: see the topic | 18:27 |
| Newuserr | Carb0n: flashplugin-non free doesnt work | 18:27 |
| Dr_willis | !appdb | Old_Gregg | 18:27 |

| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about flashprob - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 18:27 |
| Carb0n | Newuserr: What do you mean "doesn't work"? | 18:27 |
| eric2087 | erUSUL: what is the work around? | 18:28 |
| Carb0n | dagon^: :) | 18:28 |
| Dr_willis | !dosentwork | 18:28 |

| Newuserr | well i installed it but i couldnt play streams on youtube.com | 18:28 |
| erUSUL | !brokenflash | eric2087 | 18:28 |
| ubotu | eric2087: The Flash plugin installation is currently broken. This is due to Adobe changing the tar file that the package downloads. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=636397 if you need to fix this immediately, but it's recommended to wait for an official fix. | 18:28 |
| Newuserr | Carb0n:well i installed it but i couldnt play streams on youtube.com | 18:28 |
| dagon^ | patience dudes :) | 18:28 |
| Carb0n | Newuserr: What browser are you using? | 18:29 |
| iDope | hello can anyone summarize in a few lines what to sed and awk do? | 18:29 |
| Newuserr | Carb0n:firefox, but it working now on my computer | 18:29 |
| Old_Gregg | Dr_willis: Thank you. | 18:29 |
| iDope | a stream editor is too vague an explanation | 18:29 |
| iDope | it has something to do with text parsing and inline editing right? | 18:29 |
| Carb0n | Newuserr: I use flashplugin-nonfree on my laptop in firefox just fine. What is the problem? (I use Feisty) | 18:30 |
| Dr_willis | iDope, they take the data comming in.. change it.. spit it back out. | 18:30 |
| basvg | hmm, what is the 'gl desktop' entry for in the system->preferences menu? | 18:30 |
| Newuserr | Carb0n:yes there it was working well i am using ubuntu 7.10 | 18:30 |
| Dr_willis | cat foo | sed stuff | outputstuff Its in the middle of th stream of data | 18:30 |
| erUSUL | iDope: sed is a text editor and awk is a programming language oriented to tabuated data processing | 18:30 |
| dagon^ | does anyone have problems with installing flash to Opera? | 18:30 |
| iDope | well I have a little problem here.. I have a stream of data coming in and i am looking for say a certain pattern | 18:31 |
| Dr_willis | iDope, awk is rather amazing in what it can do. :) | 18:31 |
| Carb0n | dagon^: Are you manually unpacking the tar.gz or installing using apt? | 18:31 |
| iDope | once I find that pattern I need to look for a certain other pattern which occured just before it | 18:31 |
| Old_Gregg | Dr_willis: I know how to run CrossOver, but not Wine. How do I start the install? | 18:31 |
| iDope | can they help me do that? | 18:31 |
| Dr_willis | iDope, this is ascii/text data? | 18:31 |
| dagon^ | Carb0n; apt didn't work so I tried manually but didn't work | 18:31 |
| Dr_willis | Old_Gregg, wine whatever.exe | 18:31 |

| Newuserr | does anybody know a good portsanner? | 18:31 |
| bullgard4 | I do not understand line 340 in http://ubuntuusers.de/paste/23981/. Why is it necessary to test the existence of the file 85-anacron.sh instead of simply trying to run it? | 18:32 |
| basvg | iDope: can you give an example? | 18:32 |
| Carb0n | dagon^: Why doesn't apt work? | 18:32 |
| brobostigon | Newuserr: search packages.ubuntu.com , i am sure there are plenty. | 18:32 |
| fabian_ | hjolas | 18:32 |
| Newuserr | dragon^: perhaps use it with sudo | 18:32 |
| FloodBot3 | NOTICE - If you couldn't speak to the channel during the past minutes, please try again now. | 18:33 |
| Old_Gregg | Dr_willis: Okay, I got it started, but the font is all messed up. In CrossOver it always downloaded a bunch of fonts before starting the install. Is there a way to do that in Wine as well? | 18:33 |
| FloodBot3 | NOTICE - If you couldn't speak to the channel during the past minutes, please try again now. | 18:33 |

| Newuserr | brobostigon:ok | 18:33 |
| iDope | and it gives me the URLs which are being retreived | 18:33 |
| Carb0n | dagon^: :-) | 18:33 |

| iDope | that comes a bit before the GET | 18:33 |
| Montego | How do I change different backgrounds of each side of cube? | 18:33 |
| dagon^ | Newuserr; I recommend you to tab the nicks too to avoid misunderstandings | 18:33 |
| soldierboy | nmap is a good port scanner | 18:34 |
| erUSUL | iDope: on the same line? | 18:34 |
| Carb0n | dagon^: What's breaking apt from installing flash? | 18:34 |
| iDope | no | 18:34 |
| puli | guys i have printed a page as pdf on linux not able to open it on windows can any one hlp pls | 18:34 |
| iDope | thats the whole problem | 18:34 |
| iDope | its never on the same line | 18:34 |
| Silver_Fox | Merry almost Christmas eve everyone! | 18:34 |
| Dr_willis | Old_Gregg, ive never needed to mess with fonts under wine. You have installed the ms fonts on your linux box | 18:34 |
| iDope | its always a variable number of lines before the GET line | 18:34 |
| dagon^ | Carb0n; can't remember right now but i complained, doesn't matter anymore :) | 18:34 |
| brobostigon | adobe is breaking flash from installing using apt. | 18:34 |
| Dr_willis | !info mstcorefonts | 18:34 |
| ubotu | Package mstcorefonts does not exist in gutsy | 18:34 |
| basvg | iDope: you may want to write a small perl/ruby/python thingy for that | 18:34 |
| Dr_willis | Hmm what is that package.. | 18:34 |
| dagon^ | Carb0n; I was just curious if anyone else had problems | 18:34 |
| puli | guys i have printed a page as pdf on linux not able to open it on windows can any one hlp pls | 18:34 |
| Old_Gregg | Dr_willis: I'm not sure I understand. Are you saying I have or that I need to install MS fonts? | 18:34 |
| iDope | if it was fixed it would have still been do able | 18:34 |
| buzz-cp | can I just say, I LOVE UBUNTU!?!?!? | 18:35 |
| dagon^ | sure | 18:35 |
| Carb0n | dagon^: I don't seem to. Try enabling medibuntu repo for a change and see what happens. | 18:35 |
| Dr_willis | Old_Gregg, install the 'ubuntu-restricted-extras' package for a start. I think it installs the proper MS fonts packages | 18:35 |
| Montego | Also anyone know how I can stop the flooding in here. What commands do I use | 18:35 |
| eth01 | heh, it's not that great -.- | 18:35 |
| jewbilee | does anyone know where OpenOffice keeps its icon files? | 18:35 |
| soldierboy | wow in wine ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=120615 | 18:35 |
| erUSUL | Old_Gregg: msttcorefonts is the package for MS fonts | 18:35 |
| Old_Gregg | Dr_willis: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras ? | 18:35 |
| Dr_willis | Montego, depends on your irc client | 18:35 |
| dagon^ | Carb0n; ok, I'll try that, when I've got more time :) | 18:35 |
| Dr_willis | Old_Gregg, yes. or use the pacakge manager. | 18:35 |
| Montego | xchat-gnome 0.18 | 18:35 |

| Carb0n | dagon^: Take your own time. Best of luck. :) | 18:36 |
| iDope | I know python and was thinking about doing that, just wanted to check if there was a simpler way using grep/sed/awk | 18:36 |
| puli | hi there any one to help me pls | 18:36 |
| dagon^ | Carb0n; thx :] | 18:36 |
| buzz-cp | pull: what's up | 18:36 |
| Silver_Fox | Hey, I'v got a question. How do I put different desktop wallpapers in each desktop | 18:36 |
| Montego | Dr_Willis xchat-gnome 0.18 | 18:36 |
| iDope | well off to my little script then | 18:36 |
| dagon^ | puli; shoot | 18:36 |
| Carb0n | dagon^: Anytime. Thanks to you for teaching me the tab-the-nick tip! :-) | 18:36 |
| Dr_willis | Montego, you may want to try out the normal xchat program. Not the xchat-gnome | 18:36 |
| erUSUL | Old_Gregg: no problem we all have been through some less than reguarding experience with linux or computing in general | 18:36 |
| dagon^ | Silver_Fox; Settings -> Wallpaper | 18:37 |
| puli | i have printed a page as post scrit on linux , i am not able to open it with acrobat on windows | 18:37 |
| Dr_willis | Old_Gregg, You are grumpy with WoW and Wine.. thats not technicially 'linux' :) | 18:37 |
| buzz-cp | puli: post-script is not the same as pdf | 18:37 |
| Old_Gregg | Dr_willis: Actually, just CrossOver. | 18:37 |
| Montego | How do I stop Joins And leaves? Should be a switch for that | 18:37 |
| Carb0n | puli: You need Adobe distiller to convert it into PDF | 18:37 |
| buzz-cp | puli: apt-get install cups-pdf | 18:37 |
| Carb0n | puli: Or you might have forgotten the .ps extension. Which one? | 18:38 |
| Old_Gregg | Dr_willis: I have to switch the disks, but it won't let me open it. In CrossOver, I had a screen where I clicked "Eject CD" . I'm not seeing one for Wine... | 18:38 |
| puli | i have got wdobe writer is it the same with distiller | 18:38 |
| Dr_willis | Old_Gregg, using the wrong tool for the job >:) Then again - dont expect windows apps to run flawlessly under wine either. | 18:38 |
| Carb0n | puli: not the same. | 18:38 |
| puli | ii printed this page after installing cups | 18:38 |
| MrPiracy | how can I find out where an specific program is installed on my system? | 18:38 |
| Carb0n | puli: goto commandline -- type ps2pdf <filename.ps> | 18:38 |
| Dr_willis | Old_Gregg, i told ya earlier - i just copied all the data files from a Windows INstall. You could copy all the disks contents to one dir. THEN run the installer from that dir. Theres often issues with wine and multi-cd installers | 18:38 |
| Silver_Fox | dagon^, how do i get to the wallpaper settings? | 18:39 |
| brobostigon | old_gregg: wndows apps dont even tun properly unser windows | 18:39 |
| Montego | I'm Using Ubuntu 7.10. Does anyone know how to use different backgrounds On the cube? How | 18:39 |
| MrPiracy | i need to know where amule is installed so I can add a protocol handler for firefox | 18:39 |
| Old_Gregg | Dr_willis: I just want to play WoW and listen to my friends on vent. That's all I built this machine for. The guy at Fry's said Linux was faster, more stable, and just as easy to install. Faster, maybe. More stable, I agree. Easy to install? HA! | 18:39 |
| puli | is there any way out without using command line | 18:39 |
| dagon^ | Silver_Fox; do you run kde/gnome/fluxbox? | 18:39 |
| Silver_Fox | montego` thats exactly my question... | 18:39 |
| Old_Gregg | HAHA! | 18:39 |
| kane77 | I like to hibernate my computer, but after few days of usage & hibernation I always have lots of programs (showed by ps -A) that are marked as <defunct> what do I do about them? because some programs then won't work... | 18:39 |
| Silver_Fox | dagon^, well, i want it to work on compiz fusion | 18:40 |
| Old_Gregg | Dr_willis: I actually figured something out on my own! | 18:40 |
| Old_Gregg | Dr_willis: cdeject from terminal for the win! | 18:40 |
| aligatoras | #ftou | 18:40 |
| Carb0n | puli: yeah. ask someone to do it. :) | 18:40 |
| Dr_willis | Old_Gregg, you should do more research. the OS is faster and more stable.. and easy to install.. YOu are having issues with a very very very specific thing.. that a lot of people have working.. but is not linux specific | 18:40 |
| dagon^ | Silver_Fox; ah ok, sorry then. I'm not a big fan of BlingBling2007 ;) | 18:40 |

| puli | just started learning ubuntoo | 18:40 |
| Old_Gregg | Dr_willis: Patience is a virtue and I'm not one you could call virtuous. | 18:40 |
| Dr_willis | Old_Gregg, i hate to even think how big of updates you are going to have to do once you start up WoW the first time. | 18:40 |
| Silver_Fox | bling bling? o.O | 18:40 |
| kyu_flux | Old_Gregg: I love your nick =) | 18:40 |
| Carb0n | puli: It's Ubuntu! | 18:40 |
| Dr_willis | Old_Gregg, go back to windows then.. or you may want to try out cedega. | 18:41 |
| Old_Gregg | kyu_flux: Thanks | 18:41 |
| Montego | Silver_Fox Yea I have the Compiz config open but dont see the option in it? | 18:41 |
| Dr_willis | Old_Gregg, or learn some patience. | 18:41 |

| Silver_Fox | Montego, theres an option on Beryl settings, but i think you have to have another thing or somthing, because i tryed it and it dident work. | 18:41 |
| Old_Gregg | Dr_willis: very much so. took 2 hours last time. I had it working, but I couldn't have vent and wow running at the same time and have sound on both. I followed the CrossOver instructions and it borked my sound completely. | 18:42 |
| Silver_Fox | dagon^, theres no settings on the ubuntu start panel | 18:42 |
| Old_Gregg | Dr_willis: How do I copy the installation files to my computer to run it from there? | 18:42 |

| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about img - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 18:44 |
| thorm | !iso | 18:44 |
| ubotu | To mount an ISO disc image, type « sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint> » - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning. | 18:44 |

| Silver_Fox | Montego, ya, thats a cool feature | 18:44 |
| Dr_willis | put them all in the same dir Old_Gregg | 18:44 |
| thorm | Anyone can help me on this? | 18:45 |
| fluxy | Carb0n: Tried, in vain. Doesn't get update-mime-database to work. | 18:45 |
| godzirra | thorm: Do .img files allow you to just right click them and click write to disk like iso's do? | 18:45 |
| Old_Gregg | Dr_willis: okay. Thanks again. And as far as sound, does Wine intuitively enable multiple applications to use the driver at once? | 18:45 |
| Dr_willis | Old_Gregg, You still have the install from the Crossover in a dir somewhere? or is it gone also? | 18:45 |
| mboldisc | I'm having trouble installing the 32-bit JDK on AMD-64-bit Gusty. Anyone have similar problems? | 18:45 |
| puli | hi | 18:45 |
| Carb0n | fluxy: Why do you need to update mime-db in the first place? | 18:45 |
| thorm | no they do not godzirra | 18:45 |
| Old_Gregg | Dr_willis: completely removed | 18:45 |
| mboldisc | I'm using the self-extracting file from Sun. | 18:45 |
| Carb0n | fluxy: if it is to add some file format, do it in ~/.mime | 18:46 |
| godzirra | thorm: Sorry... thats all I had. ;) | 18:46 |
| Dr_willis | Old_Gregg, sound and multi apps - can be an issue dependiong on the soudn card.. wine adds further complexity to the issue. Ive not had issues with this and my Creative cards. Onboard cards May be an issue | 18:46 |
| fluxy | Carb0n: to allow .docx be recognised as application/msword instead of application/zip | 18:46 |

| godzirra | thorm: I have no idea to be honest. I just stick in a blank disk if I want to record normal files to a disk, or I right click an iso and click write to disk if its an iso. No idea on .img's. | 18:47 |

| eric2087 | no i mean... where can i post what i did to get flash working | 18:47 |
| Old_Gregg | Dr_willis: I have a kick ass sound card, but Creative Labs only released a buggy 64-bit driver for it. I tried doing Ubuntu 64-bit, but then I had all kinds of other problems. I've decided to stick with 32-bit and just use the onboard. | 18:47 |
| eric2087 | so others can do the same | 18:47 |
| godzirra | puli: apt-cache search pdftops. | 18:47 |
| fluxy | Carb0n: Umm..Which file do I have to edit exactly? | 18:47 |
| godzirra | puli: or maybe its pstopdf. Search. | 18:47 |
| dagon^ | eric2087; my bad :P | 18:47 |
| eric2087 | heh | 18:48 |
| dagon^ | eric2087; try the ubuntuforum | 18:48 |
| Carb0n | fluxy: touch ~/.mime | 18:48 |
| Old_Gregg | Dr_willis: and won't the files copy over themselves if I put them all in the same directory? | 18:48 |
| eric2087 | k... thx alot guys | 18:48 |
| Dr_willis | Old_Gregg, you have a xi-fi card eh... Yep Creative dropped the ball on that one. sadly. | 18:48 |
| === steveire_ is now known as steveire | ||
| eric2087 | i'll post right now | 18:48 |
| Carb0n | fluxy: edit ~/.mime -- add the format you wish to add | 18:48 |
| Dr_willis | Old_Gregg, No idea.. they proberly have different names. | 18:48 |
| fluxy | Carb0n: xml format? | 18:48 |
| kyu_flux | anyone know of a better last.fm player than the official client? | 18:48 |
| Dr_willis | Old_Gregg, ive installed dozens of games by copying th files to dirs that way. | 18:48 |
| Old_Gregg | Dr_willis: Yea, I should not have blindly listened to the guy at Fry's. I'm usually much better about these sort of things, but I got lazy. | 18:48 |
| dagon^ | does anyone have trouble running monodevelop? | 18:48 |
| malnilion | kyu_flux, how about amarok? | 18:48 |
| dagon^ | I can't seem to get simple projects to work | 18:49 |
| malnilion | It's not better, but it integrates it. | 18:49 |
| Dr_willis | Old_Gregg, if the guy suggested Linux AND a Xi-Fi Card.. he really was not up to speed. | 18:49 |
| kyu_flux | malnilion: i'll give it a try. thanks. =) | 18:49 |
| Dr_willis | Old_Gregg, of course suggesting Linux for a 'power gamer' is also not a good idea. | 18:49 |
| Old_Gregg | Dr_willis: He also said all I had to do was put the CD in and it would install everything just like windows. | 18:49 |
| malnilion | kyu_flux, plus amarok is my favorite audio app for linux :P | 18:49 |
| Carb0n | fluxy: refer /etc/mime.types for the format | 18:49 |
| Dr_willis | Old_Gregg, this is when the buyer should do his own research. | 18:50 |
| kyu_flux | malnilion: awesome, I've been looking for a better player as it is anyways. can't really stand totem... | 18:50 |
| fluxy | Carb0n: Thank you very much | 18:50 |
| Dr_willis | Old_Gregg, the ubuntu linux installer works amazingly well. :) | 18:50 |
| Carb0n | puli: Did you try ps2pdf. Or are you afraid to tread hot waters? | 18:50 |
| Old_Gregg | Dr_willis: Yea, I regret it. | 18:50 |
| Dr_willis | Old_Gregg, it installs better then windows does for me. | 18:50 |
| oix | hi | 18:50 |
| Carb0n | fluxy: my pleasure. | 18:50 |

| Dr_willis | Old_Gregg, i dual boot to windows to play Crysis and other games on my machines. | 18:50 |

In a perfect world, I can create a windows partition, install XP on the partition from Ubuntu, and make the windows partition the primary boot partition. Problem solved, and I'm a happy duck.

| Flannel | il12: the DVD is the Desktop CD and the alternate CD combined (plus some more extra packages in the repository) | 19:06 |
| fluxy | J-E-L-L-0: change type and then write do confirm changes | 19:06 |
| DPi1 | they're on two separate HDDs Ubuntu is on the master, windows is on the slave. ubuntu is a fresh install | 19:06 |

| Flannel | cocox: compiz-fusion is the latest | 19:07 |
| soldierboy | DPil, use windows CD to boot into console and type 'fixboot' to see if that helps you | 19:07 |
| il12 | Flannel: is there any significant difference? well, a better question: is there somewhere perhaps that has an 'official' list of the differences? | 19:07 |
| godzirra | fluxy: ok... thakns. | 19:07 |
| DPi1 | soldier boy, do i risk losing data if i do that? | 19:07 |
| cocox | Flannel, and what about Xgl or AIGLX, which one is the latest?? | 19:07 |
| soldierboy | no | 19:07 |
| godzirra | Last question... what is the name of the python image library? I can't find it in apt... | 19:07 |
| Flannel | il12: those are the official differences. What do you mean signifigant? since, including both is rather signifigant. What are you asking for? | 19:08 |
| badkitty | cocox: Use compiz-fusion :-) | 19:08 |
| Mba7eth | hi guys ... .can i download the whole dictionary that come up with linux , ?i want to use it offline | 19:08 |
| fluxy | godzirra: Set Put Computer to sleep when inactive to never and display to sleep to something you like (it will only turn screen off i think) | 19:08 |
| Flannel | cocox: Neither is later really, they're different approaches to the same problem | 19:08 |
| godzirra | fluxy: thats what I did. :) | 19:08 |
| godzirra | Then I set lid close to hibernate. | 19:08 |
| godzirra | so if i'm downloading I can just leave the lid open. | 19:08 |
| badkitty | DPi1: have you read this? http://www.computerhope.com/issues/ch000465.htm | 19:08 |
| oix | PriceChild, it donesn't work, I found the link to the Feisty page, but it's the same, I have no results | 19:09 |
| cocox | Flannel, badkitty do you guys have some interesting link about how to move from compiz to compiz-fusion? | 19:09 |
| fluxy | godzirra: I prefer it on Blank Screen (I close the lid when people get in my room =P ) | 19:09 |
| atarinox | can anybody recommend a size for my swap, root, and home partitions if I have a 30gb hd? | 19:09 |
| il12 | Flannel: sorry, I'm not quite sure how to ask what it is that I want to know. I just started with Ubuntu a few days ago. working on getting some Ubuntu and Linux books. Ok, so is there a list of the extra packages in the repository? | 19:09 |
| Flannel | godzirra: Like python-gd? or what? | 19:09 |
| cocox | badkitty, Flannel Xgl or AIGLx which one could you recommend me ?? | 19:09 |
| badkitty | cocox: You are using compiz right now? | 19:09 |
| Flannel | il12: do you have an internet connection on this machine? | 19:09 |
| murchadh | Hi all! I can't log in from kdm as some of my keyboard keys aren't recognised. Switch to terminal and they're fine. Any ideas? I posted in #kubuntu but no joy. I have the same problem if I use gdm. | 19:09 |
| fabio_ | OpenPGP key | 19:10 |
| fluxy | atarinox: swap depends on the ram u have (or atleast you think you may have for the next months you will be using ubuntu) | 19:10 |
| il12 | Flannel: I'm using it now. | 19:10 |
| fabio_ | any one knows? | 19:10 |
| badkitty | cocox: what version of ubuntu are you using? | 19:10 |
| Flannel | il12: The packages on the DVD are only really useful if you need to install them without the internet. *all* of the packages are available in the online repositories. | 19:10 |
| atarinox | fluxy: i've got 256mb ram | 19:10 |
| Flannel | il12: the DVD and CD images install an identical system | 19:10 |
| il12 | Flannel: alright, thank you, just wondering if it would be beneficial to deal with the 2 day dl for the DVD. Thank you. :) | 19:11 |
| fluxy | atarinox: home and root ....depends on u. u can have only root (and no dedicated /home partition) if u unsure how much space ur home dir gonna need (better if u have only one OS - ubuntu - and plan to use it for a very long time) | 19:11 |
| il12 | but that answered my question. | 19:11 |
| Flannel | il12: No, definately not | 19:11 |

| Flannel | !gpg | fabio_ | 19:13 |
| ubotu | fabio_: gpg is the GNU Privacy Guard. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GnuPrivacyGuardHowto and class #8 on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ClassroomTranscripts | 19:13 |
| joanki | anyone think virtual box is the best free program to run xp on my computer? | 19:13 |
| godzirra | Flannel: Yeah, it was apparently python-imaging. Hence why apt-cache search python | grep image didn't work. | 19:14 |
| fluxy | atarinox: I have 512mb ram and 1024mb swap. works ok for me (hdd 40gb) | 19:14 |
| badkitty | joanki: Yes | 19:14 |
| joanki | thx | 19:14 |

| BuFF | connect | 19:14 |
| badkitty | dcrews: isn't pidgin already have irc setup? | 19:15 |
| dcrews | Yes but I need to know how to set up the channel | 19:15 |
| atarinox | Fluxy, yeah i've got hard drive space to spare, i'll prob just make it a gig | 19:15 |
| fluxy | Glich: What's ur problem? | 19:15 |
| Glich | totem 2.2 crashes when I play rm files such as: http://mfile.akamai.com/7870/rm/mitstorage.download.akamai.com/7870/8/8.01/f99/videolectures/wl99lec1-300k.rm........................when I run in terminal it comes out as: totemSegmentation fault (core dumped) | 19:16 |
| fluxy | atarinox: don't overdo it, as the article says, 1.5/2 times ur ram should be fine | 19:16 |
| atarinox | any idea how the ratio to / and /home should work? should I make /home a bit bigger? | 19:16 |
| sam_ | hey can someone help me fix my synaptic manager? | 19:16 |
| badkitty | yeah! backtrack finished downloading! | 19:16 |
| cocox | badkitty Flannel yes i did upgrade, how could i see if it is compiz-fuzion??? gutsy comes with it? | 19:17 |
| badkitty | dcrews: set up the channel.. what exactly are you trying to do, join a channel automatically every time you start pidgen?? | 19:17 |
| fluxy | Glich: I dunno much, but you got the codecs installed? | 19:17 |
| Glich | ye | 19:17 |
| Glich | it worked once but then didn't and I duno what I did | 19:17 |
| mc_ | do you know any decent bittorrent client that I can use on my server(so without X11). I'm currently using the bittorrent and bittornado package,but both of them do not support distributed tracking which sucks. | 19:18 |
| eric2087 | quick question... how come when i post in ubuntu forum my subject line is not bold like everyone else? | 19:18 |
| crdlb | mc_: rtorrent | 19:18 |
| eric2087 | even if i put bold tags on it | 19:18 |
| badkitty | cocox: Yes compiz-fusion i believe is the default eyecandy for gutsy... to check I suppose you could look in synaptic or view your splash screen | 19:18 |
| Tilllinux | heya :) is there a plugin/script/whatever which enables media-players (like rhythmbox, audacious...) to paste their now playing info into some kind of clipboard, so that you could paste the np info with a shortcut? | 19:19 |
| godzirra | So is the only way to get different desktops on different cube walls (As well as keeping your icons) changing away from nautilus to KD? | 19:19 |
| godzirra | KDE | 19:19 |
| mc_ | crdlb: does it support distributed tracking? | 19:19 |
| crdlb | godzirra: it can't be done in kde either | 19:19 |
| godzirra | Well crap. | 19:19 |
| godzirra | how can I do it then? | 19:19 |
| cocox | badkitty thank y | 19:19 |
| cocox | uo | 19:19 |
| badkitty | :-) | 19:19 |
| crdlb | godzirra: unless you patch kdesktop (there are patches for nautilus too) | 19:19 |
| godzirra | Yeah, I tried to install them and had issues. | 19:20 |
| manny_ | Can anyone give me some advice on installing drivers for a Nvidia 6800 GT, i've done everything in the support Docs and when i try them i get stuck in low graphics mode | 19:20 |
| godzirra | Like nautilus source couldnt find all the packages I already had installed to support it. | 19:20 |
| crdlb | mc_: not sure, but I have to go | 19:20 |
| crdlb | it's much better than bittorrent in every way though | 19:20 |
| godzirra | But thats the only option is patching nautilus? | 19:20 |
| badkitty | manny, are you on gutsy? | 19:20 |
| godzirra | This seems so trivial. :/ | 19:20 |
| manny_ | I am on 7.10 | 19:20 |
| crdlb | godzirra: if you want desktop icons, yes | 19:21 |
| godzirra | bleh. Guess I'll go read up more on that. | 19:21 |
| godzirra | Is there a good how to on doing that on gutsy without screwing up everytthing else? | 19:21 |
| badkitty | manny: when you installed the drivers, did you follow a script or did ubuntu prompt you to install the drivers | 19:21 |
| BL4VAL | could someone help me get my sound working? | 19:21 |
| manny_ | i followed a script, i can get you the exact guide actually | 19:21 |
| badkitty | manny: Gutsy hasa script built in to install restricted drivers for nvidia and ati | 19:22 |
| BL4VAL | i have a realtek soundcard | 19:22 |
| manny_ | yes, i tried the restricted drivers program as well | 19:22 |
| badkitty | manny: thats what I used this time and it went perfect, i forget if there was a repository to add or not though, but it was very easy | 19:23 |

| YaGonna | h-town, no you would do that froim /etc/fstab | 19:27 |
| manny_ | badkitty: by reconfigure X you mean xorg.conf right? | 19:27 |
| badkitty | manny yah | 19:27 |
| h-town | what is /etc/fstab? | 19:27 |
| YaGonna | h-town, it's the file where all mountpoints are configured | 19:27 |

| dom | drgeb, it was a fresh install. i tried a couple of different themes too, thinking it might be that. but no use | 19:52 |
| nickrud | !hdaintel | BL4VAL | 19:52 |
| ubotu | BL4VAL: For fixing your Intel HDA sound this page has useful information https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto | 19:52 |
| nickrud | !ati | BL4VAL | 19:52 |
| ubotu | BL4VAL: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 19:52 |
| Tilllinux | but dont flash the bios too often, if it doesn't work, you're f* up | 19:52 |
| BL4VAL | thx. | 19:53 |
| no_gatez_fan | or power burps | 19:53 |
| redd0t | can sombody explain what '!' means in !ati | 19:53 |
| nickrud | redd0t, it's a flag for the channel bot to respond | 19:53 |
| ompaul | redd0t, it is a "bot" command | 19:53 |
| redd0t | okay thanks | 19:53 |
| bullgard4 | redd0t: Where does the string '!ati' appear? In this channel? | 19:54 |
| RequinB4 | Tilllinux - sorry, bit of a noob in this area, i'm told to upgrade my bios to a certain version | 19:54 |

| ompaul | RequinB4, changing bios is not trivial - unless you have got really good reason don't | 19:55 |
| drgeb | dom I am trying to learn this I am not an expert at it trying to learn how this works | 19:55 |
| dom | drgeb, well any help is appreciated. i went through the gdm.conf files last night and couldn't get anything working | 19:55 |
| === laptop is now known as NelsonUWP | ||
| dom | drgeb, i also seached google for a while but didn't turn anything up | 19:56 |
| RequinB4 | ompaul - well i'm looking here - http://www.linlap.com/wiki/Toshiba+Satellite+P105 | 19:56 |
| NelsonUWP | has anyone in here built a media center pc with linux? | 19:56 |
| NelsonUWP | htpc rather? | 19:56 |
| ompaul | RequinB4, you should take a look at some of the links there: Note, this project is deprecated. The development is switched to the iwlwifi project (no binary daemon required!). | 19:58 |
| cosmodad | I just wanted to create a movemail account using Thunderbird 2.0.0.6/Feisty, but apparently I have no such option in the account creation wizard. Can anyone else confirm this? | 19:58 |
| NelsonUWP | has anyone in here built an htpc with linux? | 19:58 |
| samukbr | brasill! | 19:58 |

| arnath | anyone know how to get a menu like this? http://gnome-look.org/CONTENT/content-pre1/71314-1.jpg | 19:59 |
| NewBuntuUser007 | dang it stupid adobe. is there a way i can issue command from terminal that will get the "ubuntu-restricted-extras" instaled from one of the older versions ? (perhaps, say, feisty?) | 19:59 |
| nickrud | NewBuntuUser007, those are broken as well | 20:00 |
| Shimfs | hi everyone, i got a little problem. I cant get my wireless to work, but thats not the main concern. The problem is, it wont even work with wired internet :S | 20:00 |
| dom | arnath: is that gdesklets? | 20:00 |
| NewBuntuUser007 | oooOOoo =( that's a bummer!@ Gaaaahhh OK ty | 20:00 |
| Ryan52 | In ion3 how do you switch tabs without using the mouse? | 20:00 |
| nickrud | !brokenflash | NewBuntuUser007 | 20:00 |
| ubotu | NewBuntuUser007: The Flash plugin installation is currently broken. This is due to Adobe changing the tar file that the package downloads. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=636397 if you need to fix this immediately, but it's recommended to wait for an official fix. | 20:00 |
| arnath | dom: not a clue | 20:00 |
| arnath | dom: all i know is that instead of the original topmenu with 3 buttons, this guy seems to have the bottom menu which looks way neater :P | 20:01 |
| il12 | ok. I have a question about Wine. I am trying to open an application through it but nothing shows up in my C:/ directory when I try to browse it in order to open something through WIne | 20:01 |
| ubuntux | hey, how do you get sound working in vmware workstation? | 20:01 |
| dom | arnath: well you might check out some of the gdesklets | 20:01 |
| NewBuntuUser007 | OH luckily I read about it and i saw that installing the restricteds would install the flash | 20:01 |
| NewBuntuUser007 | so i hesitated. ill check back. good lookin out tho thx 4 the heads up | 20:02 |
| badkitty | ubuntux: you have vmware working in ubuntu... did they fix their repos finally? I use virtualbox | 20:02 |
| arnath | dom: ok, but will the gdesklets also get rid of the original menu? :) or is that setting in ubuntu somewhere? | 20:02 |
| dom | arnath: if you're using gnome (standard w/ ubuntu), you can just delete the panel | 20:02 |
| arnath | dom: ah ok :) | 20:02 |
| ubuntux | badkitty, i duno, just installed it myself with the vmware installer | 20:02 |
| il12 | am I going to have to go through the terminal window and the directories there? Wine already has notepad saved as under it's 'programs' folder. | 20:02 |
| Romes | something I don't understand about the linux FS | 20:02 |
| NewBuntuUser007 | i was in her the other day. i should jus lurk sum. i'm having boxbox fun right now. | 20:03 |
| ubuntux | badkitty, without using vmware-any-any patches or whatever | 20:03 |
| Romes | if you mount something that already exists on a partition, what happens? | 20:03 |
| Romes | so let's say I try and mount a partition as /home | 20:03 |
| Shimfs | weird. I cant get my laptop to make the | symbol | 20:03 |
| Shimfs | quite annoying :S | 20:03 |
| chronic1 | NewBuntuUser007: sorry about that...didn't mean for that to me a message | 20:04 |
| ubuntux | someone else using vmware workstation? | 20:04 |
| Shimfs | can anyone tell me how i get my WIRED internet connection to work :S i cant access the internet with the lan cable in :S | 20:04 |
| bulmer | Romes-> try and it and see the effect | 20:04 |
| Romes | bulmer: I would, but I don't have any extra partitions | 20:05 |
| bulmer | Shimfs-> can you tell us how your network layout is? whats connected to what? | 20:05 |
| Romes | plus it sounds dangerous :P | 20:05 |
| bulmer | Romes-> huh? what extra partitions? | 20:05 |
| Shimfs | bulmer, how exactly do i find that? is it the lspci command? | 20:05 |
| badkitty | Shimfs: what does ifconfig bring up | 20:05 |
| bulmer | Shimfs-> you have to explain what are the physical devices connected in between and such | 20:05 |
| Shimfs | badkitty, it says the command was now foudn | 20:06 |
| Romes | bulmer... don't I need another partition to mount it? | 20:06 |
| Shimfs | bulmer, i have my lan cable to my apple airport extreme and then to the internet | 20:06 |
| orgy` | hey, whats the easiest way to make video screen capture of compiz? | 20:06 |
| ubuntux | Shimfs, do /sbin/ifconfig | 20:06 |
| Shimfs | badkitty, the command was NOT found | 20:06 |
| ubuntux | Shimfs, and do /sbin/route -n | 20:06 |
| bulmer | Romes->you can mount a partition to another..no problemo | 20:06 |
| dom | drgeb, any ideas? | 20:06 |
| Shimfs | ubuntux, /sbin/ipconfig says the destination was not found | 20:07 |
| bulmer | Shimfs-> okay find out if you have an ip address assigned via ifconfig or ip a | 20:07 |
| badkitty | Shimfs: ifconfig is not found huh.. thats a large indicator of your problem | 20:07 |
| ubuntux | Shimfs, its /sbin/ifconfig not ipconfig read | 20:07 |
| wols_ | Shimfs: there is no ipconfig anywhere on ubuntu | 20:07 |
| Shimfs | ubuntux, and the route -n gets me a list like this: Destination, gateway, genmask, flags metric ref and use iface | 20:07 |
| ubuntux | Shimfs, what gateway do you see for route 0.0.0.0 | 20:08 |
| Shimfs | wols_, how am i then going to get access to the internet | 20:08 |
| Shimfs | ubuntux, none, the list is empty | 20:08 |
| wols_ | Shimfs: by reading more carefully what people tell you | 20:08 |
| ubuntux | Shimfs, so your eth isnt configured | 20:08 |
| Shimfs | wols_, i do? and i try everything they suggest -.- | 20:08 |
| nickrud | Shimfs, you should put the output of ifconfig and route -n on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org so people can see them | 20:08 |
| wols_ | Shimfs: as several people already told you you haven't | 20:08 |
| bulmer | Shimfs-> yes try what we suggest to you | 20:08 |
| DARKGuy | Hey, does anybody know how do I do for making Audacious/XMMS enqueue the new media they get instead of replacing the whole playlist? :/ | 20:09 |
| Shimfs | wols_, bulmer i have tried everything you said. the /sbin/ipconfig, /sbin/route -n, ipconfig and so on | 20:09 |
| ubuntux | Shimfs, do you know what DHCP is, or some basic about network config? | 20:09 |
| nickrud | Shimfs, ifconfig not IPCONFIG | 20:09 |
| bulmer | Shimfs-> read carefully it is ifconfig not ipconfig | 20:09 |
| wols_ | Shimfs: iFconfig! for the fscking last time | 20:09 |
| wols_ | Shimfs: and I didn't say anything | 20:09 |
| ubuntux | lol everytime said it now :) | 20:09 |
| Shimfs | ubuntux i know that it is the one that sets the ip up automaticly | 20:09 |
| ubuntux | Shimfs, yes, does your router or other network device supports that? | 20:10 |
| wols_ | Shimfs: run /sbin/ifconfig -a | 20:10 |
| ubuntux | then do | 20:10 |
| ubuntux | Shimfs, sudo dhclient eth0 | 20:10 |
| dom | anyone have any ideas why no users show up in my gdm chooser? | 20:10 |
| Shimfs | ifconfig says eth0 is the ethernet up broadcast. eth1 is also ethernet :S and lo is local loopback | 20:10 |

| LjL | !java > sam_ (sam_, see the private message from Ubotu) | 20:11 |
| wols_ | !java | sam_ | 20:11 |
| ubotu | sam_: To install a Java runtime/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre | 20:11 |

| sam_ | nope 32bit cause its easier | 20:11 |
| Shimfs | ubuntux it says no DHCPOFFERS recieved | 20:11 |
| wols_ | good | 20:11 |
| sam_ | <wols> i just need the synaptic manager to work | 20:11 |
| ubuntux | Shimfs, so or you dont patched eth0 to your network device, or your router doesnt support it (read has it enabled) | 20:11 |
| sam_ | <wols> but its been giving me this error | 20:12 |
| il12 | Ok. On my system it tells me that a program is already running on my system, when I have never opened it before. | 20:12 |
| nickrud | il12, which one? | 20:12 |
| il12 | nickrud: LastChaos | 20:12 |
| Shimfs | ubuntux, hmm, im not sure, but i think its connected with the fact that not even WIRED internet works for me :S | 20:12 |
| bulmer | Shimfs-> okay tell us what is the ip address assigned on eth0? ifconfig will tell you | 20:12 |
| DARKGuy | Hey, does anybody know how do I do for making Audacious/XMMS enqueue the new media they get instead of replacing the whole playlist? :/ | 20:12 |
| sam_ | <wols> are you there? | 20:12 |
| ub3r | . | 20:12 |
| ubuntux | Shimfs, because you dont have an ipadress and a route to a gateway, so of course your internet doesnt work | 20:13 |
| nickrud | il12, I've never heard of it | 20:13 |
| sam_ | <wols_> are you there, i mean | 20:13 |
| LjL | !tab | sam_ | 20:13 |
| ubotu | sam_: You can use <tab> for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. | 20:13 |

| LjL | sam_: perhaps if you tell us which error it is that you talked about. | 20:14 |
| eth01 | hmmm? | 20:14 |
| eth01 | i'm eth01 ;) | 20:14 |
| ubuntux | Shimfs, and if you put your cable in eth1 and do sudo dhclient eth1 ? | 20:14 |
| nickrud | il12, I've found it .. you could try killall LastChaos (if it's uppercase in ps -A) | 20:14 |
| sam_ | <LjL> sure, my synaptic manager: E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem. | 20:14 |
| sam_ | E: _cache->open() failed, please report. | 20:14 |
| Shimfs | ubuntux, i will try that, brb in a minute (only got one cable -.- | 20:14 |

| Flare183 | sam_: then put the files in the /tmp folder and then right click them, click properties | 20:26 |
| cosmodad | sam_: what problem? | 20:26 |
| Flare183 | sam_: then set the permissions | 20:27 |
| Flare183 | ToddEDM: you can't do that | 20:27 |
| ToddEDM | do what | 20:27 |
| Drixx | nickrud: last time i installed awm after compiz ... n none of em worked ... can u suggest from where shud i install awm .. n shud i or not ... | 20:27 |
| Flare183 | ToddEDM: gparted can't do that | 20:27 |
| sam_ | ah wait ill just listen to Flare183 what he said first | 20:27 |
| ToddEDM | format a USB stick | 20:27 |
| ToddEDM | ? | 20:27 |
| Flare183 | ok | 20:27 |
| Flare183 | ToddEDM: yes | 20:27 |
| cosmodad | could anyone using Thunderbird under Feisty please confirm/deny that there is no movemail account available when creating a new account? | 20:27 |
| ToddEDM | hmmm.. what would do that then? | 20:27 |
| sam_ | <Flare183> ok what file do I download/where, and how do i run gksudo? | 20:27 |
| HardDisk | the easiest thing to do was to sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras | 20:27 |
| boo | I've been having some problems with my windows partition in ubuntu. I havent used windows in about 4 months, but i tried to boot it yesterday to play a game. but i got a BSOD before anything booted, so i tried fixboot and fixmbr in the winxp recovery console, then it said ntldr is missing. i reinstalled grub, tried to mount the device and its not working. i've tried force mounting it and everything | 20:28 |
| HardDisk | that will install flash, java, codecs etc | 20:28 |
| Flare183 | sam_: do what the message says to do download those files first | 20:28 |
| omegaweopon | Im getting an error with rosebud that says Rosegarden was unable to find a high resolution timing source for MIDI performance. Im running 7.10, any ideas? | 20:28 |
| nickrud | Drixx , I'm not using awn, so no opinion on it | 20:28 |
| boo | fdisk shows the partition as ntfs, but the winxp boot cd shows it as fat16 | 20:28 |
| handerek | anyone can help me to fix this? http://www.onlyfree.de/php/pasteservice/show.php?id=4986 | 20:28 |
| ToddEDM | Flare183: what program would format a USB stick? | 20:29 |
| HardDisk | boo, you have to boot from the windows XP cd, go into prompt then do Fdisk /mbr IF it's a windows xp partition | 20:29 |
| sam_ | <Flare183> sorry but what message? do you mean the sun java thing? | 20:29 |
| boo | what does Fdisk /mbr do? | 20:29 |
| Flare183 | !format > ToddEDM | 20:29 |
| HardDisk | fdisk /mbr is the proper way to fix your ntldr issue via xp cd | 20:29 |
| Flare183 | sam_: http://java.sun.com/javase/6/webnotes/install/jdk/install-docs.html | 20:29 |
| cosmodad | could anyone using Thunderbird under *Gutsy* please confirm/deny that there is no movemail account available when creating a new account? | 20:30 |
| boo | will that screw up grub again? | 20:30 |
| Flare183 | sam_: the message the one that you pasted into the pastebin | 20:30 |
| HardDisk | boo, it will, ONCE you do that, then you just add grub afterwards and use the mount point for xp | 20:30 |
| nickrud | boo, fdisk /mbr will screw up grub. | 20:30 |
| boo | alright, could a screwed up mbr make the contents of the disk look random? | 20:31 |
| HardDisk | boo, no | 20:31 |
| gabbah | anyone using the latest nvidea driver with a geforce 8800 card? I just installed it and now the fan is running full blast constantly! :/ Anyone know a fix for that? | 20:31 |
| HardDisk | boo, that is a completely different problem altogether. | 20:31 |
| boo | what could cause that? | 20:31 |
| HardDisk | boo, in that case you have a fux0red partition table. | 20:31 |
| Flare183 | sam_: and yes the java message thing | 20:32 |
| boo | it didn't look completely random, there were words in the filenames | 20:32 |
| boo | how would i fix that? | 20:32 |
| sam_ | <Flare183> sorry I seem to be a total noob at this, I don't understand the link you sent me | 20:32 |
| HardDisk | what could cause it, many things such as, electrical power outage, a faulty harddrive, partitioning and not completing it by restarting pc etc. | 20:32 |
| Flare183 | sam_: here you need both of the files | 20:32 |
| HardDisk | boo, also running fsck while the drive is mounted. | 20:33 |
| boo | whats fsck? | 20:33 |
| Flare183 | sam_: So i guess i'll do the hard part and just give you place you can just download those files | 20:33 |
| boo | i think i remember doing that a while back =/ | 20:33 |
| HardDisk | boo, fsck is equivelant to chkdsk | 20:33 |
| Tezasaurus | hi, I'm having problems getting Flash movies to work correctly in Firefox under Gutsy | 20:33 |
| sam_ | <Flare183> sorry, just got ubuntu yesterday | 20:33 |
| boo | ah, file system check, ok | 20:33 |
| nickrud | !flash | Tezasaurus | 20:33 |
| ubotu | Tezasaurus: To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash | 20:33 |
| ubotu | The Flash plugin installation is currently broken. This is due to Adobe changing the tar file that the package downloads. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=636397 if you need to fix this immediately, but it's recommended to wait for an official fix. | 20:33 |
| HardDisk | boo, what I would do, is boot from a livecd, first check your data is intact, backup what you can then work on fixing your partition table. | 20:33 |
| Flare183 | sam_: no problem just let me find where the files are at | 20:33 |
| Tezasaurus | thanks, nickrud | 20:34 |
| HardDisk | boo, if you have jumbled files and folders, fixing it may create more data loss | 20:34 |
| boo | how could i check that its not corrupted from a live cd? | 20:34 |
| rainwalker | how to I access my hard drive using the live cd? | 20:34 |
| amerio | i have a problem with my mouse .. its working but multimedia buttons arent working .. any idea? | 20:34 |
| HardDisk | boo, fsck | 20:34 |
| Shimfs_ | what to do if ifconfig eth1 reveals that i have no ipaddress whatsoever. only a inet6 address | 20:34 |
| boo | oh | 20:34 |
| Flare183 | sam_: https://sdlc6d.sun.com/ECom/EComActionServlet;jsessionid=8A17F2BCED2403AC6B56C88479620F5A# | 20:35 |
| boo | hmm | 20:35 |
| boo | alright, im going to boot from a livecd | 20:35 |
| boo | ill be back | 20:35 |
| HardDisk | boo, OR if you are new to linux | 20:35 |
| HardDisk | boo, I would use something like Hiren's boot cd | 20:35 |
| sam_ | <Flare183> I downloaded it to my desktop | 20:35 |
| boo | instead of booting from the livecd? | 20:36 |
| HardDisk | it has tools to help you fix these things | 20:36 |
| Tezasaurus | should I go with the official version of Flash or a free alternative? | 20:36 |
| Flare183 | sam_: which one? | 20:36 |
| HardDisk | first boot from the livecd and check first. | 20:36 |
| sam_ | well there was only jdk6doc | 20:36 |
| nickrud | Tezasaurus, the free alternative is still a work in progress, won't play newer flash formats | 20:36 |
| HardDisk | Tezasaurus, the opensource one sucks to be quite honest. | 20:36 |
| nickrud | sucks is a harse term | 20:36 |
| sam_ | <Flare183> well there was only jdk6doc, the other one was japanese | 20:36 |
| boo | so fsck when i get into the livecd, any arguments? | 20:37 |
| Flare183 | sam_: ok | 20:37 |
| HardDisk | the truth can be harsh sometimes. | 20:37 |
| HardDisk | boo is it ntfs or fat? | 20:37 |
| Flare183 | sam_: already done downloading it | 20:37 |
| Flare183 | ? | 20:37 |
| Tezasaurus | should I just install "flashplugin-nonfree" then? There doesn't seem to be specific instructions for Gutsy on this page | 20:37 |
| boo | ntfs | 20:37 |
| Flare183 | me says sorry for the enter | 20:37 |
| * Flare183 says sorry for the enter | 20:37 | |
| HardDisk | Tezasaurus, sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras | 20:37 |
| HardDisk | boo, in that case forget about fsck, go with the hiren boot cd as I mentioned. | 20:37 |
| Dr_willis | is the flash installer still broken? | 20:37 |
| nickrud | Tezasaurus, yes, it has a link to a working package there, the ubuntu-restricted-extras has a broken installer | 20:38 |
| Flare183 | Dr_willis: yep | 20:38 |
| Dr_willis | Flare183, egads. :) | 20:38 |
| sam_ | <Flare183> What should I do next? | 20:38 |
| Flare183 | Dr_willis: yeah i know | 20:38 |
| boo | alright | 20:38 |
| Tezasaurus | nickrud: okay, that's what I thought, because I did the restricted-extras and it's been wonky | 20:38 |
| nickrud | Dr_willis, seems to be opera and konq problems are holding up the fix | 20:38 |
| Dr_willis | nickrud, interesting... | 20:38 |
| Flare183 | sam_: press alt+f2 and type in "gksu nautilus" | 20:39 |
| Dr_willis | nickrud, and here i was thinking the fix was just the changing of a filename in the installer script | 20:39 |
| rainwalker | wait what's wrong with the flash in restricted-extras> | 20:39 |
| rainwalker | ? | 20:39 |
| HardDisk | apparently it's broken. | 20:39 |
| Dr_willis | rainwalker, /msg ubotu flash and it tells ya some info | 20:39 |
| Flare183 | sam_: then navigate to the / (root folder) | 20:39 |
| Tezasaurus | so "sudo update-flashplugin" then to fix it? | 20:39 |
| ubuntux | Dr_willis, just install flash with the adobe installer, that works fine | 20:39 |
| Borg5575 | I have intstalled Linux Mint 4.0 and it seems to work much better out of the box and has less bugs, and Flash works | 20:39 |
| Dr_willis | the flash guys changed some things.. that broke the flash installer package. :( | 20:39 |
| sam_ | <Flare183> i think im in the root folder | 20:40 |
| Flare183 | sam_: does it have bin. boot, etc? | 20:40 |
| Dr_willis | ubuntux, i have it installed. :) from ages ago.. | 20:40 |
| Cobra_Fast | is there a gnome/gtk tool for editing a selinux-policy? (like SEEdit) | 20:40 |
| nickrud | Dr_willis, you can read https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/gutsy/+source/flashplugin-nonfree/+bug/173890 if you have an hour to spare :) | 20:40 |
| rainwalker | Dr_willis: ok, so if I installed restricted-extras back when I first installed Gutsy, I'm good right? | 20:40 |
| boo | what should i do once i boot from the cd? | 20:40 |
| sam_ | Flare183: no only desktop but it says root - file browser on top | 20:40 |
| Flare183 | sam_: press the up button | 20:41 |
| HardDisk | I think they did it deliberately | 20:41 |
| ubuntux | Dr_willis, ah okay i thought you had troubles installing it | 20:41 |
| chazco | Hi... how can i make my laptop battery last as long as it did with XP when using 7.10? | 20:41 |
| ToddEDM | !gparted | 20:41 |
| ubotu | GParted is a !GUI partitioning program. Type « sudo apt-get install gparted » in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted-livecd.tuxfamily.org/ | 20:41 |
| sam_ | Flare183: ah i see | 20:41 |
| Flare183 | sam_: that the root folder "/" | 20:41 |
| Flare183 | sam_: now double click the tmp folder | 20:41 |
| sam_ | Flare183: sorry i lost you at the folder "/" | 20:42 |
| sam_ | <Flare183> oh nvm in tmp folder now | 20:42 |
| RequinB4 | !battery | 20:42 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about battery - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 20:42 |
| pedersencato | I'm trying to install Ubuntu 7.10 on my sister's Dell Latitude cpx H500GT, but when I go to do so get a message saying "VFS: Cannot open root device "<NULL>" or unknown-block(104.1)" followed by "Kernel Panic - not syncing VFS: Unable to mount root fs..." Can anybody help me? | 20:42 |
| ProN00b | why is everyone using rm -rf, rm -r sounds safer to me | 20:42 |
| nickrud | chazco, we could wish for that ... | 20:42 |
| ToddEDM | Flare183: why did you tell me that Gparted couldnt format a USB stick? | 20:42 |
| chazco | nickrud - ? | 20:43 |
| RequinB4 | chazco - what process do you have | 20:43 |
| nickrud | chazco, better battery support | 20:43 |
| RequinB4 | processor | 20:43 |
| rainwalker | Dr_willis: what is this all about then? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=648356 | 20:43 |
| * nickrud is going to listen to RequinB4 and hope | 20:43 | |
| chazco | RequinB4 - It has a Centrino Duo (i think) | 20:43 |
| boo | HardDisk, what should I be trying to do once I boot from hiren's cd? chkdsk? something like that? | 20:43 |
| RequinB4 | chazco - download powertop - that program has saved me hours of battery | 20:44 |
| Flare183 | sam_: ok now drag the jdk-doc file to that folder | 20:44 |
| chazco | nickrud - I though linux had at least as good as XP/Vista power wise | 20:44 |
| chazco | RequinB4 - I've tried it... says it should get about 20 mins more power | 20:44 |
| nickrud | RequinB4, will that work with amd64 ? Or do you have a suggestion for it? | 20:44 |
| sam_ | Flare183: ok done | 20:44 |
| RequinB4 | nickrud - no, powertop is only intel - the company made it for linux, not the other way around | 20:44 |
| HardDisk | boo, well there is a section for partition utilities, check first that the partition itself isn't damaged. also I'd do a physical check as well. | 20:45 |
| chazco | RequinB4 / nickrud - Under XP i got ~5/6 hours power (good laptop)... Ubuntu gives me at most 4 hours | 20:45 |
| Flare183 | sam_: now go back and try to install the sun-java package | 20:45 |
| boo | a physical check? | 20:45 |
| Flare183 | sam_: again, | 20:45 |
| Flare183 | sam_: ok? | 20:45 |
| RequinB4 | chazco - check brightness? all the usual stuff | 20:46 |
| nickrud | chazco, darn good laptop, I get 2 hrs tops linux, 3 or so on vista | 20:46 |
| sam_ | Flare183: Synaptic manager gave me the same error | 20:46 |
| chazco | RequinB4 - done everything common sense wise... XP/Vista used to switch off the DVD drive, which may have helped | 20:46 |
| Flare183 | !permissions > sam_ | 20:46 |
| RequinB4 | chazco / nickrud - i get the same for both, about 2.5 hours | 20:46 |
| chazco | nickrud - Most laptops i've seen are like that... this is an ultraportable that actually seems to be practical :) | 20:46 |
| zimnyx | Alt-SysRq-K instead of killing all processes connected to current console, changes loglevel to 2. Any Ideas why? (btw Alt-SysRq-1..9 doesn't change loglevel as it should be) | 20:47 |
| Flare183 | sam_: then go back to the file manager and setup the permissions | 20:47 |
| Flare183 | sam_: sorry forgot that step | 20:47 |
| sam_ | Flare183: umm ok ill try that | 20:47 |
| sam_ | Flare183: ? | 20:47 |
| Flare183 | sam_: I forgot that step | 20:47 |
| Flare183 | sam_: sorry | 20:47 |
| chazco | RequinB4 - At 75% battery powetop says i have 2.2hrs remaining, at a rate of 15.9W usage | 20:47 |

| esteth | What's the command to access the menu editor in GNOME? | 20:48 |
| === Lump|AFK is now known as Lumpy | ||
| Shimfs_ | what to do if ifconfig eth1 reveals that i have no ipaddress whatsoever. only a inet6 | 20:48 |

| Flare183 | sam_: you know the one that why opened up by running "gksu nautilus" | 20:48 |
| rainwalker | esteth: or system > preferences > main menu | 20:48 |
| Flare183 | sam_: you know the one that why opened up by running "gksudo nautilus", i mean | 20:48 |
| chazco | Using all of powetops suggestions gets me 2.6 hours RequinB4 | 20:48 |
| esteth | rainwalker: thanks :) | 20:48 |
| HardDisk | boo, yes | 20:49 |
| ProN00b | chazco, power saving compatibility isn't exactly a thing hardware manufacturers can be proud of... they just do what they want and make sure it works on win xp | 20:49 |
| chazco | And 12.6W usage | 20:49 |
| zimnyx | esteth: Alt-F1 | 20:49 |
| sam_ | <Flare183> ok the file search thing | 20:49 |
| Flare183 | sam_: i guess | 20:49 |
| RequinB4 | chazco - yeah, i'm not sure what to say at this point - windows kind of makes deals with the hardware manufacturers | 20:49 |
| boo | what's a physical check? you don't mean taking out the actual hdd? | 20:49 |
| HardDisk | boo, no | 20:49 |
| chazco | hmm | 20:50 |
| HardDisk | boo, as in a physical hd check with the utilities | 20:50 |
| RequinB4 | chazco, then again powertop is telling me i have 33.3 hours left | 20:51 |
| eth01 | ssh: connect to host localhost port 22: Connection refused ? | 20:51 |

| GHOST | hello is anybody no why firefox crash with flash content (youtube) ? | 20:55 |
| underdawg | LynX: it would be okay, just a little sluggish due to ram | 20:55 |
| underdawg | just a litlte | 20:55 |
| Dr_willis | LynX, it also depends on what you want to do. :) | 20:55 |
| LynX | don't know.. | 20:55 |

| vincenz | Hello, so one of the recent updates is making X not work, so I'm trying to slowly find out which package it is, by installing single update at a time | 20:56 |
| vincenz | Any suggestions? | 20:56 |
| HardDisk | LynX, why not boot from the livecd and try it yourself. | 20:56 |
| IndyGunFreak | LynX: get on Ebay, and get some bargain ram... and max it out, and it will be a powerhouse.\ | 20:56 |
| vincenz | can I roll back updates so I don't have to reinstall from scratch each time? | 20:57 |
| HardDisk | vincenz, sudo apt-get install -f | 20:57 |
| HardDisk | try that. | 20:57 |
| IndyGunFreak | HardDisk: live cd will barely run on 256mb Ram, it will crash most likely | 20:57 |
| vincenz | HardDisk: what is -f? | 20:57 |
| vla1 | вы что подурели здесь чем вам русский язык не нравится? | 20:57 |
| Dr_willis | underdawg, often theres a example config installed with some packages. you could look in the hamachi docs dir. or try a 'sudo updatedb' then 'locate hamachi' looking for an example config | 20:57 |
| GHOST | hello is anybody no why firefox crash with flash content (youtube) ? | 20:57 |
| HardDisk | IndyGunFreak, not really. But if you want to get picky, xubuntu then :) | 20:57 |
| Dr_willis | underdawg, or use the package maanger tools and see what all it installed. May be a example config somewhere. | 20:57 |
| HardDisk | GHOST, read topic | 20:57 |
| vincenz | HardDisk: I don't want to install all updates at once | 20:57 |
| IndyGunFreak | HardDisk: even that live disk won't run well.. trust me, been there done that. | 20:57 |
| vincenz | HardDisk: I don't want to risk having to reinstall from scratch | 20:58 |
| HardDisk | IndyGunFreak, yes, but your case does not necessarily apply to the genpop. | 20:58 |
| boo | Does anyone know a way to easily combine and or cut video files? | 20:58 |
| HardDisk | boo, avidemux | 20:58 |
| IndyGunFreak | LynX: well, if it was "just my case", i wouldn't be sittig here talking about it.. i've helped others w/ the same issue. | 20:58 |
| boo | does it have a GUI? | 20:58 |
| * Flare183 says can someone please explain to sam_ how to change the permissions to the file:jdk-6-doc.zip to root-root? | 20:58 | |
| LynX | thanks ppl... | 20:58 |
| HardDisk | boo, yes. | 20:58 |
| boo | Thanks | 20:58 |
| IndyGunFreak | Flare183: why should he change it to root:root? | 20:59 |
| Dr_willis | Flare183, you mean the ownership? and why does it matter? | 20:59 |
| Tezasaurus | are there similar problems with DivX movies in Gutsy like the Flash bug? It seems to be giving me similar problems | 20:59 |
| sam_ | IndyGunFreak: its for the sun java thing yesterday | 20:59 |
| Flare183 | IndyGunFreak: because synaptic has to have it as root | 20:59 |
| HardDisk | he doesn't need to change the filename permissions to root. | 20:59 |
| IndyGunFreak | sam_: ok... | 20:59 |
| Dr_willis | Tezasaurus, ive never seen any divx movie issues under gutsy. | 20:59 |
| IndyGunFreak | Flare183: well he does'nt need it as rot. | 20:59 |
| IndyGunFreak | sam_: where di dyou download it? | 20:59 |
| Dr_willis | Tezasaurus, i watch/download from stage6.com all the time. | 20:59 |
| underdawg | how do i rm a directory? | 20:59 |
| Flare183 | IndyGunFreak: from the java site | 20:59 |

| Tezasaurus | Dr_willis, watching works, but the volume bar won't go away if I click on it, and the seekbar doesn't move so I can't jump around the movie | 21:01 |

| Paddy_EIRE | Maconga, you dont backup? | 21:07 |
| IndyGunFreak | sam_: well we can try to install java if you want, thats no big deal. | 21:07 |
| thorm | HardDisk just did it.. | 21:07 |
| Flare183 | amerio: have you added the keyboard shortcuts to the mouse events? | 21:07 |
| vincenz | IndyGunFreak: on another note, do you know anything about booting xp from external hd | 21:07 |
| rainwalker | Dr_willis: true...I guess I shouldn't bother with it, my flash works (not as well as I'd like it to) and I've learned the hard way no to mess with stuff that's not broken... | 21:07 |
| HardDisk | thorm, should be in your system tools | 21:08 |
| thorm | but it still isnt there HardDisk.. do you know where it should be? | 21:08 |

| scguy318 | skullhead: the pSX emulator requires a BIOS ROM dump from a PlayStation, but that's all I know on the subject | 21:09 |

| EADG | Alt+F3 incase anybody was wondering :) | 21:09 |
| skullhead | sxguy218: ya i have one | 21:09 |

| amerio | Flare183: I've searched the ubuntu forums and didnt find anything | 21:09 |

| scguy318 | DarKMode: how did you kill it anyway? I get an operation not permitted when I try to kill the sshd running on this machine | 21:22 |
| noelferreira | i use 32-bit firefox or almost one year in my amd64 machine. i thought there was a better solution now scguy318 | 21:22 |
| scguy318 | DarKMode: has to be done as root | 21:22 |
| spideyman | does xdvdshrink work well? | 21:22 |
| DarKMode | i was connected with nxserver | 21:22 |
| scguy318 | noelferreira: that's pretty much it until Adobe actually releases a 64-bit Flash | 21:22 |
| fiXXXerMet | Wondering if anyone here has installed Ubuntu on an IBM xseries 225? I am trying to do so now and it is not detecting the raid controller/disks. It uses a LSI53C1030 controller. | 21:22 |
| DarKMode | and i stoped it | 21:22 |
| scguy318 | noelferreira: or Gnash, or nspluginwrapper | 21:22 |
| noelferreira | ok, i guess i'll use firefox32 | 21:22 |

| noelferreira | other question, does ekiga have suport for web cam? | 21:23 |

| scguy318 | factboy818181: I think it does zeroconf services | 21:24 |
| Flannel | factboy818181: avahi is a service discovery tool, yeah you can disable it. | 21:24 |

| noelferreira | HardDisk, does the version of skype for ubuntu supports web cam? | 21:26 |
| HardDisk | noelferreira, just go to the skype.com site, it has the ubuntu deb 2.0 beta | 21:26 |
| falieson | is there a command to tel the applications menu to remake itsself? | 21:26 |
| Flare183 | !skype | 21:26 |
| ubotu | To install Skype on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype - To record on Skype, check: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SkypeRecordingHowto | 21:26 |
| noelferreira | HardDisk, do you think it will be better than ekiga | 21:27 |
| noelferreira | ? | 21:27 |
| amundsen | i've installed sun-java6-jre from the ubuntu repositories, but firefox doesn't recognize it. any idea about this ? | 21:27 |
| scguy318 | DarKMode: mm, why the -S? | 21:27 |
| === tomek_ is now known as x32hamba | ||
| HardDisk | noelferreira, you cannot compare. | 21:27 |
| Flannel | noelferreira: ekiga will probably work. Its equivalent to netmeeting, it actually works with netmeeting. But, GAIM is probably more reliable. I... believe theyve successfully figured out the protocol stuff. Problem with ekiga/netmeeting is its sorta lower level, not a lot of fluff to make it user friednly | 21:27 |
| verb3k | falieson, what do you mean remake? | 21:27 |
| HardDisk | ekiga uses open sip sources, skype does not. | 21:27 |

| noelferreira | Flannel, you meen pidgin? i thought gaim has ended | 21:28 |
| x32hamba | please help. it happens for new users too | 21:28 |
| DarKMode | scguy318, -S The -S (stdin) option causes sudo to read the password from the standard input instead of the terminal device. | 21:28 |
| Flare183 | yes it has | 21:28 |

| DarkElf | I have a samba server set up with security=share, and a share set up to allow guest access as read-only and a single user to have write access. This has worked for a long while, and has suddenly stopped allowing that user write access. How would I go about diagnosing the cause of the problem, and how do I fix it? | 21:29 |
| falieson | I'm trying to start teh vmware server console, but it's not in the appliccations menu and I don't know the cmd for it | 21:29 |
| Flare183 | told ya'll | 21:29 |
| Flannel | noelferreira: No, I'm not. But I thought I remember reading something about thm getting Yahoo's webcam working. Maybe I made that up. | 21:29 |
| noelferreira | Flannel, how can i install that version of pidgin with web cam? it is already available? | 21:29 |
| n00bie | does rubyripper have a irc site? (i've tried googling with no luck) | 21:29 |
| HardDisk | you did make that up. | 21:29 |
| PriceChild | falieson, type vmware, then press <tab> | 21:29 |

| Ttech | Is there anyway to get Sribus working correctly under Kubuntu? The redo/undo buttons do not work | 21:30 |
| DarKMode | scguy318, apache@myserver:>su standard in must be a tty | 21:30 |
| juano__ | DarkElf: in my experience security=share with samba isn't pretty good, i would suggest security=user and then use smbpasswd to add local users to the smbpasswd file | 21:30 |
| verb3k | Flare183, you're using ubotu a lot :) | 21:30 |
| HardDisk | noelferreira, you wanted webcam, I suggested skype. if you don't want webcam, pidgin is fine. | 21:30 |
| n00bie | Flare183: i was just rewriting my question | 21:30 |
| Flannel | noelferreira: Obviously not. Since it doesnt work. | 21:30 |
| DARKGuy | Hey, how do I change the default app for .txt files from gedit to leafpad? | 21:31 |
| DarkElf | juano__: Well, it's sort of a hybrid as it is. Guests can access the share read-only, and now Windows machines can't log in as the write-access user, and the logfiles aren't giving any hints | 21:31 |
| noelferreira | i see | 21:31 |
| Flare183 | verb3k: yes i do, in fact i wish i was operator because of that | 21:31 |

| juano__ | DarkElf: paste me (*use pastebin*) smb.conf | 21:32 |

| HardDisk | noelferreira, remind me again deb for what | 21:37 |
| DarkElf | juano__: I can mount the smb share fine from the same linux box, and the access rights and log files are correct | 21:37 |
| DavGerm4 | it only shows half of the screen | 21:37 |
| scguy318 | Berto: 64-bit is fine, but running proprietary stuff that demands 32-bit like Flash/Java can be problematic | 21:37 |
| Berto | HardDisk, i use 64-bit on my desktop, and it works fine and I have flash and all that going. if 64-bit will work, i'll download AMD64 style i think | 21:37 |

| Flare183 | Shimfs: sudo apt-get remove | 21:38 |
| HardDisk | kyu, only because for beginners at least 90% of the time they run into major issues, the most logical step to run something stable, get used to the system then work on the other ones. | 21:38 |

| OmegaNine | I am getting there error "md5sum mismatch install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.gz The Flash plugin is NOT installed" then when I try to install it again, it tells me its already installed. Is there an MD5 known issue with flash ATM? | 21:40 |

| erUSUL | !brokenflash | OmegaNine | 21:41 |
| ProN00b | kyu_flux, teamspeak server | 21:41 |
| ubotu | OmegaNine: The Flash plugin installation is currently broken. This is due to Adobe changing the tar file that the package downloads. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=636397 if you need to fix this immediately, but it's recommended to wait for an official fix. | 21:41 |
| DarkElf | juano__: Should have expected the from the begining, no? ;) | 21:41 |
| juano__ | DarkElf: heh | 21:41 |
| kyu_flux | maybe it was just something temporary. strange... but right on | 21:41 |
| Shimfs | this is driving me nuts. i cant get a wired or wireless connection going | 21:41 |
| juano__ | DarkElf: well , anyways we can try fix it, but better join another channel | 21:41 |
| kyu_flux | ProN00b: right on, thanks... | 21:41 |
| juano__ | DarkElf: ubuntu-offtopic | 21:42 |
| OmegaNine | erUSUL, Thanks big man. But yeah, need it now, the net without flash is...creepy...Now a days | 21:42 |
| Shimfs | i have tried disabeling IPv6 and i have blacklsited it, tried to use wcip instead of network-manager | 21:42 |
| vincenz | This is really odd, on my old system on my hd, I have gutsy updated to the latest and it works fine | 21:42 |
| DarkElf | juano__: I'll just assume it requires some number of restarts and be done with it | 21:42 |
| Shimfs | but i cant get the god damn connection :S :P | 21:42 |
| vincenz | but on a clean install and upgarding to the latest makes my x hang | 21:42 |
| erUSUL | OmegaNine: no problem :) | 21:42 |
| juano__ | DarkElf: well, restarting usually works under windows :P | 21:42 |

| Flare183 | thanks | 21:42 |
| juano__ | DarkElf: for almost *everything* | 21:42 |
| juano__ | DarkElf: ;) | 21:42 |
| Shimfs | it wont find me an IP address :S | 21:43 |
| HardDisk | noelferreira, well 1.4 doesn't do webcam, 2.0 does | 21:43 |
| Shimfs | wicd just cant get it going, neither could network-manager | 21:43 |
| speeddemon8803 | Heh, all of us are scrambling to get the commands up in ubotu :P | 21:43 |
| HardDisk | you can install 32bit on it tho | 21:43 |
| noelferreira | so HardDisk where can i download it? | 21:43 |
| HardDisk | sec | 21:43 |
| HardDisk | http://www.skype.com/intl/en/download/skype/linux/beta/ | 21:44 |
| HardDisk | click download, and choose feisty fawn's link | 21:44 |
| HardDisk | they just didn't rename the link that's all | 21:44 |
| noelferreira | thanks HardDisk | 21:44 |
| HardDisk | but it will work | 21:44 |
| kyu_flux | damn, I must say... i'm pretty impressed with this so far... I didn't think i'd be this satisfied with a debian-based distro | 21:44 |
| fluxy | HardDisk: Have you tried audio/video with skype? Is it good? | 21:44 |
| HardDisk | fluxy, very good actually. | 21:45 |
| noelferreira | HardDisk, nice :) | 21:45 |
| HardDisk | that's all I use. | 21:45 |
| juano__ | Shimfs: wireless ? | 21:45 |
| fluxy | HardDisk: cool, I've been missing audio on linux for voip. I'll get it | 21:45 |
| Shimfs | juano__, cant get that to work either. but its the wired internet that is my main concern atm | 21:45 |
| HardDisk | quality's as if I'm in my parent's living room talking to them :) and they're in virginia, I'm in egypt. | 21:45 |
| dag_dg | when trying to install from the ubuntu debootstrap, what would be an equivalent command for base-config new? | 21:46 |
| juano__ | Shimfs: are you connected to a router ? | 21:46 |
| Shimfs | juano__, yes | 21:46 |
| juano__ | Shimfs: are the network cards on roaming mode ? is the dhcp server enabled in the router ? | 21:47 |
| fluxy | HardDisk: I've used skype on Windows, but didnt try it since I moved to Ubuntu. thx for the info =) | 21:47 |
| Shimfs | juano__, dhcp must be enabled because it worked when it was a windows machine. and im not sure with roaming. I chosed wicd instead of network-manager, but it did not work with either dhcp or roaming when i were using network-manager | 21:48 |
| n00bie | could someone help me with a problem on rubyripper? when i try ripping an audio cd i get the following error: | 21:48 |
| n00bie | http://pastebin.com/d7db575c8 | 21:48 |
| juano__ | Shimfs: system > administration > network , check to see if they are on roaming mode | 21:48 |
| HardDisk | fluxy, np | 21:48 |
| Shimfs | juano__, i have set my wired connection to dhcp | 21:49 |
| Shimfs | juano__, i will try to change it back to roaming | 21:49 |
| juano__ | Shimfs: try roaming | 21:49 |
| juano__ | Shimfs: are u sure you had dhcp set for windows ? | 21:49 |
| Shimfs | juano__, weird, the roaming option has dissapeared | 21:50 |
| fluxy | HardDisk: know any repository which I can get to dload Skype using apt (and have updates...etc later) ? | 21:50 |
| Shimfs | juano__, i am on a windows right now, is there anyway i can check if it is on dhcp or manually set | 21:50 |
| h4ngedm4n | my ubuntu computer can ping ip's and load websites, but cannot resolve dns. I've tried using "host google.com 208.67.222.222" (opendns) and that doesnt work either | 21:50 |
| juano__ | Shimfs: yes, go to control panel, my network connections, right click your network adapter, select tcp/ip then properties | 21:50 |
| Shimfs | juano__, i cant find the roaming option anymore, i can either disable the wired, or use dhcp, IPv4 or static | 21:50 |
| HardDisk | fluxy, yea | 21:51 |
| Shimfs | juano__, its set to, get automatic IP which i think is dhcp | 21:51 |
| juano__ | Shimfs: sure is | 21:51 |
| DARKGuy | Hey, how do I change the default app for .txt files from gedit to leafpad? I've already used "Open with..." but when I double-click the .txt file again it opens gedit! I want leafpad as default! | 21:51 |
| shaiguitar | i tried the auto option and it doesnt work! (mount) | 21:51 |
| HardDisk | fluxy, but no point, since at the end it's the same, and the last time skype did an update was like a few years :/ | 21:51 |
| Shimfs | juano__, okay. I have read some forum posts about my problem, and i am not the only one with it. But their solutions does not work for me :( | 21:51 |
| handerek | yeah! my ati is running great, thx for help | 21:52 |
| HardDisk | the repo won't be official, more like divineo's etc | 21:52 |
| shaiguitar | aren't i supposed to see some disk icon on the desktop as soon as i log in? | 21:52 |
| juano__ | Shimfs: ok leave it to dhcp, go to a terminal type sudo ifconfig | 21:52 |
| HardDisk | but trust me, this release is mucho stable. | 21:52 |
| juano__ | Shimfs: when your on ubuntu that is | 21:52 |
| speeddemon8803 | DarkGuy go to system->preferred applications :) | 21:52 |
| Shimfs | juano__, done | 21:52 |
| juano__ | Shimfs: do you have an ip address asigned? | 21:52 |
| DARKGuy | speeddemon8803: Okay I'm there | 21:52 |
| Shimfs | juano__, i get a eth0 with no inet address or bcast | 21:52 |
| fluxy | HardDisk: uh could you pass me the addr still? am kind of crazy about apt and distro integration =) | 21:52 |
| Shimfs | juano__, and i get a eth0:avah WITH inet | 21:52 |
| shaiguitar | anyone a mount maestro | 21:52 |

| DARKGuy | *:p | 21:54 |
| HardDisk | dickfacemanx, no, cause it's $$ and this isn't #warez | 21:54 |
| juano__ | Shimfs: ok, lets start first with the wired connection, if that pc is already hooked up to the router, try typing sudo dhclient eth0 | 21:54 |
| shaiguitar | anyone help regarding mount? | 21:54 |
| despineira | suspend works but resume hangs on MSI M670 notebook | 21:54 |
| juano__ | Shimfs: to see if you can gain an ip address | 21:54 |

| Newuserr | scguy318: well neither apt-get nor synaptics starts to download packets dont know why | 21:57 |
| DavGerm4 | ya it's at like 524x300 or something like that | 21:57 |
| DavGerm4 | it won't let me change the res at all | 21:58 |
| speeddemon8803 | crap can someone else help dark cuz my firefox will not pull up what i need it to. | 21:58 |
| scguy318 | Newuserr: check your System -> Admin -> Software Sources and repos? | 21:58 |
| Shimfs | juano__, it is a HP pavillion 5000 series. ANd under the restricted drivers i can see my ATI acceelerated driver (not in use) software modem driver (not in use) and firmware for broadcom 43xx chipset (not in use) | 21:58 |
| DARKGuy | speeddemon8803: x.x it's ok I can wait | 21:58 |
| speeddemon8803 | i am extremely sorry dark for throwing you to someone else, but I cant do it. | 21:58 |
| scguy318 | DavGerm4: try using the alternate installer or reconfigure X | 21:58 |
| scguy318 | !install | DavGerm4 | 21:58 |
| ubotu | DavGerm4: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues - Don't want to use a CD? Try http://tinyurl.com/3exghs - See also !automate | 21:58 |
| DavGerm4 | how do I do that | 21:58 |
| Newuserr | dickfacemanx: best example is Vista lol very popular i think | 21:58 |
| Shimfs | juano__, a loooong time ago, i had ubuntu shortly on the computer too, and it worked back then | 21:58 |
| juano__ | Shimfs: heh | 21:58 |
| fluxy | he's gone | 21:58 |
| Shimfs | juano__, the wired of course, never got the wireless to work. | 21:58 |
| juano__ | Shimfs: you have to enable the broadcom one | 21:58 |
| scguy318 | DavGerm4: you may use: alternate install CD, or UNetBoot for alternate installation | 21:58 |
| DavGerm4 | does it matter that I"m installing it on a PS3 and that it's connected through Component | 21:58 |
| Shimfs | juano__, for the wired connection to work? :S | 21:59 |
| speeddemon8803 | Someone? Anyone? *throws sign in front of dark with change default text editor* :P | 21:59 |
| h4ngedm4n | Shimfs: hm i thought bc43xx would be a wireless set tho, and the problem is with the wired? | 21:59 |
| despineira | suspend works but resume hangs on MSI M670 notebook | 21:59 |
| MrHippocampus | Shimfs: have you tried noting down your ip in windows and setting the same ip as your static ip in ubuntu? | 21:59 |
| scguy318 | DavGerm4: oh. http://psubuntu.com/ tells you that you have to perform an alternate install | 21:59 |
| DavGerm4 | I'm on that page | 21:59 |
| DavGerm4 | but I don't see anything about alt install | 21:59 |
| juano__ | Shimfs: emm nope, that is the wireless, for wired one... try typing lspci | 21:59 |
| speeddemon8803 | dark needs help doing that and i dont remember exactly how, i was gonna grab a website but I cant get my firefox to work right. | 21:59 |
| juano__ | Shimfs: maybe we can see the details for the wired one there | 21:59 |
| Shimfs | juano__, its the wired i want, and that is not working | 21:59 |
| speeddemon8803 | heh sorry dark im trying to get someone for ya :) | 22:00 |
| Shimfs | MrHippocampus, i dont have windows on the ubuntu machine anymore | 22:00 |
| juano__ | Shimfs: lspci ? | 22:00 |
| scguy318 | DavGerm4: http://psubuntu.com/installation-instructions/ <-- links to alternate install CD, which is what the installation instructiosn refer to | 22:00 |
| mark__ | hi, can someone help me with ubuntu wireless networking? | 22:00 |

| scguy318 | Newuserr: try, say, unchecking CD-ROM repo? | 22:01 |
| despineira | suspend works but resume hangs on MSI M670 notebook | 22:01 |
| speeddemon8803 | Can someone help me figure out how to change the default text editor in Ubuntu? | 22:01 |

| Newuserr | scguy318: sorry dont understand what u mean | 22:01 |
| wraund | speeddemon8803: easy | 22:01 |
| Shimfs | juano__, lspci -v shows the 06:06.0 ethernet controller: realtek semiconductor. subsystem, HP unknown device, flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 128, IRQ 22 i/O ports at a000, memory at b020a400, capabilities: <access denied> | 22:01 |
| wraund | speeddemon8803: just right click a text file and do open-with | 22:01 |
| scguy318 | Newuserr: in Software Sources, uncheck the CD-ROM repository? | 22:01 |
| h4ngedm4n | Shimfs: not sure if this was covered already, but you already tried setting dhcp with network manager and it didnt work? did you make sure there weren't multiple network manager windows open? | 22:02 |
| despineira | speeddemon8803: go to gnome conf editor | 22:02 |
| speeddemon8803 | Wraund, im not the one who wanted to know but nobody else was helping out ;) | 22:02 |
| Shimfs | h4ngedm4n, yes i did, and it did not work | 22:02 |
| cineva | hello everybody! is there someone to help me with mysql settings? | 22:02 |
| despineira | suspend works but resume hangs on MSI M670 notebook | 22:02 |
| wraund | speeddemon8803: then choose your text editor and select 'always use this application' or something at the bottom | 22:02 |
| Shimfs | h4ngedm4n, i am no longer using network-manager, i use wicp right now | 22:02 |
| despineira | can i get some attention here? | 22:02 |
| wraund | !repeat despineira | 22:02 |
| despineira | can i get some attention here? | 22:02 |
| h4ngedm4n | Shimfs: did not work, as in you didn't even get an ip assigned right | 22:02 |
| wraund | !repeat | despineira | 22:02 |
| despineira | suspend works but resume hangs on MSI M670 notebook | 22:02 |

| wraund | 60 | 22:02 |
| mark__ | robdig, okay. I have a wireless setup that I can only start with the programm "network-admin". I would, however, prefer to have it started automatically by script, and I tried "iwconfig" and "ifconfig", but without success. I suspect that "iwconfig" somehow mishandles the wpa key. | 22:03 |
| despineira | !patience | 22:03 |

| speeddemon8803 | Wraund, thanks but my friend who wanted that info left before I could get it to them :P | 22:03 |
| speeddemon8803 | oh well! | 22:03 |
| wraund | speeddemon8803: tell them later :P | 22:03 |
| Shimfs | h4ngedm4n, exactly | 22:03 |
| cineva | hello everybody! is there someone to help me with mysql settings? | 22:03 |
| speeddemon8803 | I will if they come back, which they will if they didnt figure it out on their own. | 22:03 |
| DARKGuy | speeddemon8803: oO I'm here | 22:03 |
| speeddemon8803 | Thanks for help though! | 22:03 |
| speeddemon8803 | You are! yay! | 22:03 |
| wraund | np | 22:03 |
| DARKGuy | XD | 22:03 |
| DARKGuy | haven't left heh | 22:03 |
| eroick | How do I make a non-root user capible of running things in realtime? | 22:04 |
| speeddemon8803 | I saw dark left...dark ELF not guy oh lol | 22:04 |
| speeddemon8803 | duh | 22:04 |
| speeddemon8803 | :) | 22:04 |
| DARKGuy | lol | 22:04 |
| Shimfs | juano__, any thoughts on it? | 22:04 |
| speeddemon8803 | did you see how to do it? | 22:04 |
| robdig | mark__: what do you do to start it up? | 22:04 |
| juano__ | Shimfs: mm it seems as a driver problem | 22:04 |
| DARKGuy | speeddemon8803: yeah kinda, gnome conf editor would be gconf-editor no? | 22:04 |
| juano__ | Shimfs: im googlin it out | 22:04 |
| garu | need some help with sound on my laptop.I have no sound when I try to use headphones or external speakers.can someone help? | 22:04 |
| Shimfs | juano__, okay. its just weird it worked on a far older ubuntu release. and i have also tried ubuntu and the forums. i am not the only one with the problem | 22:05 |
| h4ngedm4n | Shimfs: i cant see it being a driver problem. what does forcing an ip do? | 22:05 |
| speeddemon8803 | Yes DarkGuy | 22:05 |
| speeddemon8803 | :) | 22:05 |
| Shimfs | h4ngedm4n, how to do so, and i dont know which ip i should choose, i use dhcp usually | 22:05 |
| mark__ | robdig, I tried "iwconfig eth1 essid myaccesspoint key s:mywpakey" Im not sure if iwconfig properly recognizes the wpa key | 22:05 |
| juano__ | Shimfs: yea, well that sort of happened with other stuff, in feisty my webcam worked out of the box and now it doesn't | 22:05 |
| speeddemon8803 | That answer I knew, but had to get a refresher. | 22:05 |
| speeddemon8803 | lol | 22:05 |
| h4ngedm4n | Shimfs: well, on your router it has a dhcp range somewhere, just pick an ip not in that range | 22:05 |
| speeddemon8803 | its been a LONG time since ive had to use it. | 22:05 |
| h4ngedm4n | Shimfs: in my case, 192.168.1.15-47 are dhcp, so i just pick 192.168.1.150 or something to test away from dhcp | 22:06 |
| DARKGuy | speeddemon8803: "speeddemon8803: then choose your text editor and select 'always use this application' or something at the bottom" <- well I don't have that option | 22:06 |
| Shimfs | h4ngedm4n, and i dont have access to the router -.- hate it :P | 22:06 |
| speeddemon8803 | gconf-editor, looking up where its at though :) | 22:07 |
| h4ngedm4n | Shimfs: well... i guess for temporary purposes, you can brute force ping the local network until you find an ip not being used :) | 22:07 |
| bunky24 | is there a keyboard shortcut to minimize all windows? | 22:07 |
| juano__ | Shimfs: try assinging static ip | 22:07 |
| Shimfs | h4ngedm4n, okay -.- :P | 22:07 |
| Shimfs | juano__, ok | 22:07 |
| h4ngedm4n | Shimfs: then when you get that ip, assign it, and see if you can reach the internet | 22:07 |
| robdig | mark__: think that works for wep, but think you need to do some other stuff to get wpa working...here is a link that may help https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WPAHowTo | 22:07 |
| speeddemon8803 | !gconf-editor | 22:08 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about gconf-editor - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 22:08 |
| Greevous | bunky24: Ctrl + Alt + D | 22:08 |
| bqmassey | what do you folks recommend for a newsreader? | 22:08 |
| speeddemon8803 | you dont know the best configuration editor for ubuntu?! what up with that? | 22:08 |
| speeddemon8803 | lol | 22:08 |
| Shimfs | h4ngedm4n, okay will do | 22:08 |
| h4ngedm4n | bqmasseyif: you like console, i liked slrn | 22:08 |
| Flare183 | !best | 22:08 |
| ubotu | Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors. | 22:08 |
| juano__ | Shimfs: but if your router is serving dhcp , you shouldn't use static ips | 22:08 |
| DARKGuy | speeddemon8803: XD hey I'm on it now, it's like regedit :p | 22:08 |
| bunky24 | Greevous, nice... hmm closes my AWN too though | 22:08 |
| Shimfs | juano__, no, but i must try, nothing else has worked so far :P | 22:08 |
| speeddemon8803 | Yeah it is ;) | 22:08 |
| juano__ | Shimfs: sure | 22:09 |
| DARKGuy | speeddemon8803: and I've gone to gedit-2 and nautilus and there isn't nothing similar to what I need | 22:09 |
| h4ngedm4n | juano__: yeah its just a temporary thing to see if we're looking at a dhcp problem or something else | 22:09 |
| mark__ | robdig, okay thanks. Thing is that it actually works when I configure and start it with "network-admin". If I only knew what that tool does in "the background" | 22:09 |
| Greevous | bunky24: I don't know much about AWN, sorry | 22:09 |
| juano__ | h4ngedm4n: yea, i guess it can be driver cause if the dhcp server is enabled and also under windows it worked fine using dhcp settings for the adapter, sometimes it can be driver issue | 22:10 |
| bunky24 | Greevous, np thanks for the shortcut | 22:10 |
| bqmassey | i said news reader.. i meant feed reader.. recommendations? | 22:10 |
| h4ngedm4n | juano__: yeah for wireless, driver issue is common, but i havent heard of any driver issue for regular ethernet for some time | 22:10 |
| erUSUL | bqmassey: lifearea? i use google reader | 22:11 |
| bqmassey | erUSUL: thanks | 22:11 |
| Zoo | Hi. | 22:11 |
| [1]fallen | hey hey | 22:11 |
| [1]fallen | how are u? | 22:11 |
| Zoo | What's a better unup server than gmediaserver - it doesn't seem to share movies or pictures, just music. | 22:11 |
| h4ngedm4n | Zoo: well, I can share you videos of family vacation, and pictures of the neighbors dog if you want ... :P | 22:12 |
| juano__ | h4ngedm4n: yea, he must be missin something under router settings probably | 22:12 |
| Zoo | juano__: works under xp | 22:13 |
| Zoo | with windows media connet | 22:13 |
| DARKGuy | speeddemon8803: see: http://img295.imageshack.us/img295/8230/imglx0.jpg | 22:13 |

| === __Dave2__ is now known as Dave2 | ||
| Shimfs | h4ngedm4n, when i try a static ip, what should the submask and gateway eb? | 22:15 |
| juano__ | Shimfs: netmask same as router and gateway routers ip | 22:15 |
| Shimfs | juano__, h4ngedm4n ahh, it inserted its own values | 22:15 |
| Newuserr | Shimfs: ifconfig | 22:16 |
| juano__ | Shimfs: well it does cause it supposes default values | 22:16 |
| speeddemon8803 | oh your desktop is PURDY darkguy :) | 22:16 |
| h4ngedm4n | Shimfs: for me its 255.255.255.0 / 192.168.1.1, pretty common settings | 22:16 |
| juano__ | Shimfs: after asigning an ip , try pinging router | 22:16 |
| erUSUL | Shimfs: gateaway -->your router || netmask --> usually 255.255.255.0 | 22:16 |
| Zoo | thats common for linksys | 22:16 |
| Zoo | netgear uses 192.168.0.1 | 22:16 |
| DARKGuy | speeddemon8803: thanks XD if you want something from it I can share lol :p | 22:16 |
| speeddemon8803 | nah thats ok bud :) | 22:16 |
| juano__ | h4ngedm4n: erUSUL well that will always depend on router settings | 22:16 |
| h4ngedm4n | yeah lots of common settings hehe:) | 22:16 |
| Zoo | DARKGuy: I wanna see it :P | 22:17 |
| h4ngedm4n | i just thought it would be helpful to see some sample #'s | 22:17 |
| speeddemon8803 | Thats the best dam linux pic ive seen so far! | 22:17 |
| [gquit]bombadil | what's the best snes emulator for linux? | 22:17 |
| Shimfs | juano__, it just says unknown host when i say ping google.com | 22:17 |
| speeddemon8803 | lol | 22:17 |
| Shimfs | erUSUL, ok | 22:17 |
| juano__ | Shimfs: the router | 22:17 |
| juano__ | Shimfs: ping the router | 22:17 |
| Mba7eth | guys !!! how can i change shell font ? | 22:17 |
| Zoo | Hmm. So, any other unup servers other than gmediaserver | 22:17 |
| Shimfs | juano__, which is the gateway address right? | 22:18 |
| juano__ | [gquit]bombadil: zsnes | 22:18 |
| juano__ | Shimfs: yes | 22:18 |
| Zoo | Mba7eth: Its in the profiles | 22:18 |
| erUSUL | Shimfs: mu router uses 10.0.0.1 and netmask is 255.255.255.0 | 22:18 |
| minus | Mba7eth, In a TTY or a terminal? | 22:18 |
| redd0t | muahahahahhahah | 22:18 |
| Shimfs | juano__, host is unreacabhle | 22:18 |
| juano__ | [gquit]bombadil: sudo apt-get install zsnes ;) | 22:18 |
| Shimfs | unreachable | 22:18 |
| DARKGuy | speeddemon8803, Zoo: Wallpaper -> http://img208.imageshack.us/img208/8651/srnew31024x768ds9.jpg ^^ | 22:18 |
| juano__ | Shimfs: ok, so static doesn't work :) | 22:18 |
| [gquit]bombadil | juano__: thx :) | 22:18 |
| Mba7eth | minus: the default for ubuntu | 22:19 |
| h4ngedm4n | is the cable ok? | 22:19 |
| juano__ | Shimfs: can you see your router settings ? | 22:19 |
| speeddemon8803 | nice :) | 22:19 |
| Mba7eth | minus I guess terminal | 22:19 |
| juano__ | h4ngedm4n: worked under windows, should be ok :P | 22:19 |
| h4ngedm4n | yeah well its a laptop, maybe it got plugged back in loose | 22:19 |
| ^Useless^ | hi. i have a problem with ffmpeg on gutsy, encoding to ogg vorbis. basically it ignores the audio bitrate and always encodes to ~64 kbps | 22:19 |
| speeddemon8803 | is it kde or gnome dark? | 22:19 |
| Shimfs | juano__, i can try, one moment | 22:19 |
| minus | Mba7eth, Edit -> Current Profile -> Un-check the "use the system fixed width font" -> Pick your own font. | 22:19 |
| Shimfs | juano__, what settings do you want me to look at? | 22:20 |
| speeddemon8803 | Ive got my gnome so where it looked like kde after I got done was just asking if you did the same lol. | 22:20 |
| il12 | the download + install command is sudo apt-get install {insert prog. name} correct? | 22:20 |
| DARKGuy | speeddemon8803: gnome ^^ | 22:20 |
| joubert | list | 22:20 |
| speeddemon8803 | you did heh | 22:20 |
| speeddemon8803 | cool | 22:20 |
| juano__ | Shimfs: your router settings, usually you can see them typing this in firefox: http://<routerip> | 22:20 |
| speeddemon8803 | yes il12 it is :) | 22:20 |
| il12 | ty speeddemon | 22:20 |
| erUSUL | ^Useless^: why not use the original oggenc?? | 22:20 |
| speeddemon8803 | Your welcome. | 22:21 |
| juano__ | Shimfs: depends on the router, what router you got ? | 22:21 |
| voidmage | I'm having trouble getting tracker search to work. I put in search queries for things I know exist but get no results. | 22:21 |
| Shimfs | juano__, apple airport extreme | 22:21 |
| ^Useless^ | erUSUL, no particular reason. i just think that if ffmpeg claims to support ogg vorbis, it just should work correctly :) | 22:21 |
| Mba7eth | minus: thanks a lot | 22:21 |
| erUSUL | ^Useless^: what command line are you using? | 22:21 |
| speeddemon8803 | brb, gonna go install ubuntu studio from the repositories...maybe..if it doesnt wipe out my freakin wireless again. | 22:22 |
| minus | Mba7eth, no problemo :) | 22:22 |
| ^Useless^ | erUSUL, ffmpeg -i rnrrobot.wav -ab 160k -vn rnrrobot.ogg | 22:22 |
| skullhead | dos any one know how to install epsxe properly every time i try to start it in terminal nothing happens???? | 22:22 |
| Shimfs | juano__, hmm cant get access to the router | 22:22 |
| DARKGuy | speeddemon8803: good luck :) | 22:22 |
| speeddemon8803 | it did it the last time, i seriously hope that it doesnt do it again. | 22:22 |
| ^Useless^ | erUSUL, it picks the bitrate correctly, and displays it. but then uses a different one when encoding | 22:22 |
| DARKGuy | Hey, how do I change the default app for .txt files from gedit to leafpad? I've already used "Open with..." but when I double-click the .txt file again it opens gedit! I want leafpad as default! I don't have the "Use this as default application" checkbox as you can see in here (http://img295.imageshack.us/img295/8230/imglx0.jpg) so I'd greatly appreciate some hel | 22:23 |
| juano__ | Shimfs: mmm, how do you configure it from windows ? | 22:23 |
| erUSUL | ^Useless^: well everything seems ok dunno why it fails... maybe there's some ffmpeg specific channel... | 22:23 |
| voidmage | DARKGuy: Check under properties for any .txt file | 22:24 |
| juano__ | Shimfs: did it come with a software or something ? | 22:24 |
| voidmage | There should be an option to change the open with behavior | 22:24 |
| ^Useless^ | erUSUL, yup, but they don't support packaged versions | 22:24 |
| ^Useless^ | so it's rather an ubuntu bug | 22:24 |
| robbier | hello everyone | 22:24 |
| Shimfs | juano__, yes, a software i cant get atm. i will propably just try in 2 days time. or pehaps find an older ubuntu release, where my network DID work. | 22:24 |
| damien__ | hi | 22:24 |
| strong_soul | hello | 22:24 |
| DARKGuy | voidmage: where? | 22:24 |
| damien__ | me ? | 22:25 |
| voidmage | right click on any .txt file and select properties | 22:25 |
| LuitvD | hi | 22:25 |
| robbier | could someone please help me with an ubuntu question? | 22:25 |
| ^Useless^ | erUSUL, take a look at http://pastebin.ca/830357 | 22:25 |
| Shimfs | juano__, do you know where i can get feisty or something like that, since i have only heard people with this problem in gutsy | 22:25 |
| voidmage | then the "open with" tab | 22:25 |
| strong_soul | hello4 all | 22:25 |
| LuitvD | I guess my ALSA stopped working... is that possible? | 22:25 |
| speeddemon8803 | darkguy, being that its in spanish...you might wish to try the #ubuntu-es channel, maybe they can help out more. | 22:25 |
| DARKGuy | voidmage: hey, that works perfectly! :D | 22:25 |
| strong_soul | i'm 25/m/br | 22:25 |
| ^Useless^ | erUSUL, see at line 13, it says 160 but then at line 17 you see the actual bitrate | 22:25 |
| damien__ | i am from france , and i am looking at a tool who can clean my firefox screen | 22:25 |
| speeddemon8803 | or...listen to void hehe | 22:25 |
| DARKGuy | speeddemon8803: Yeah I usually try in there and #ubuntu-ve , but those channels are usually lifeless most of the time :( | 22:26 |
| juano__ | Shimfs: http://releases.ubuntu.com/7.04/ | 22:26 |
| voidmage | I'm having trouble getting tracker search to work. I put in search queries for things I know exist but get no results. | 22:26 |
| crush_groove | robbier, you dont have to ask to ask . state your question | 22:26 |
| Shimfs | juano__, thanks | 22:26 |
| speeddemon8803 | hmmm | 22:26 |
| Shimfs | juano__, will try to install that tomorrow | 22:26 |
| speeddemon8803 | I was just suggesting because it was in a non-english language heh :) | 22:26 |
| juano__ | Shimfs: mm sorry but i hope it gets to work | 22:26 |
| juano__ | Shimfs: :) | 22:26 |
| speeddemon8803 | Since you say they dont talk in there there would be no use though lol. | 22:26 |
| Shimfs | juano__, thanks, and so do i ;) else i guess i wil have to revert to windows :( | 22:27 |
| DARKGuy | Oh XD | 22:27 |
| Creed | Is there any way I can see why my sound isnt loading? I saw something about "port not specified" regardin my CS43xx chipset during startup but it flashed by too fast for me to remember fully. | 22:27 |
| robbier | Whenever I start ubuntu, i get the loading screen, it loads up, then i get the orange screen with the white spinning cursor, but nothing happens...every 3 minutes a black command line screen pops up for 2 seconds, but then im back at the orange screen with the white spinning cursor. Any help please? | 22:27 |
| strong_soul | hey here is a chat room? | 22:27 |
| Shimfs | juano__, well good night | 22:27 |
| LuitvD | my sound stopped working from one boot to the other... how is that possible? | 22:27 |
| DARKGuy | I've seen screenshots in here of interfaces in chinese and german so I don't see the problem x) | 22:27 |
| juano__ | Shimfs: hehe... ok, well anytime, good night! | 22:27 |
| speeddemon8803 | *shrug* | 22:27 |
| toymachine | is kernel framebuffer support on vt1-6 still not functioning? | 22:27 |
| robbier | Whenever I start ubuntu, i get the loading screen, it loads up, then i get the orange screen with the white spinning cursor, but nothing happens...every 3 minutes a black command line screen pops up for 2 seconds, but then im back at the orange screen with the white spinning cursor. Any help please? | 22:27 |
| speeddemon8803 | I guess if you can understand english by all means use what you got :) | 22:27 |
| il12 | ok, I just installed Adept and opened it and it tells me that I have to have admin (root) priviledges and won't be able to make any changes. it says please run through root or through kdesu or sudo programs. Is there a way to fix this? | 22:27 |
| erUSUL | ^Useless^: i've done a little research you have to use "-aq n" with n between 10 and 30 -ab will be ignored by the ogg encoder | 22:28 |
| erUSUL | ^Useless^: ffmpeg -i input.wav -acodec vorbis -aq 50 output.ogg | 22:28 |
| Creed | il12, run it as root? :) | 22:28 |
| strong_soul | ah i think here is only about linux | 22:28 |
| LuitvD | my sound stopped working from one boot to the other... how is that possible? | 22:28 |
| ^Useless^ | erUSUL, can you give a me link where it says that? i've been looking for 3 days! | 22:28 |
| Creed | il12, either make a shortcut and add gksu before the command to start adept or open a terminal prompt and do "sudo adept" | 22:28 |
| h4ngedm4n | sorry to ask again on my network problem, but any ideas for what to do when dns doesnt work? This ubuntu machine has had working dns before | 22:28 |
| eyyYo | I have two soundcards. One integrated on the motherboard, and one pci-card. I want every application (Ubuntu also) to use the pci-card. Now Ubuntu uses the motherboard soundcard, and every application uses different soundcard. Is there a way to fix this? | 22:28 |
| Zoo | Anyone familiar with ushare? | 22:28 |
| strong_soul | hey anyone help me plz | 22:28 |
| erUSUL | ^Useless^: i've just closed the firefox window... hold on | 22:28 |
| speeddemon8803 | gksu, is gnomes alternative for root, you can try using gksu command :) | 22:29 |
| speeddemon8803 | then typing in your password | 22:29 |
| speeddemon8803 | it bypasses root. | 22:29 |
| damien__ | ubuntu rocks , but it's difficult to know what "code"(?) i need to do what i want ! | 22:29 |
| voidmage | I recently switched to gnome from kde and tracker doesn't want to index my existing files. It's been about 24 hours and searches for files I know exist don't work. | 22:29 |
| robbier | Whenever I start ubuntu, i get the loading screen, it loads up, then i get the orange screen with the white spinning cursor, but nothing happens...every 3 minutes a black command line screen pops up for 2 seconds, but then im back at the orange screen with the white spinning cursor. Any help please? | 22:29 |
| nickrud | eyyYo, try disabling the onboard in the bios, since you don't use it | 22:29 |
| strong_soul | hey anyone help me plz | 22:29 |
| boo | HardDisk: are you here? | 22:29 |
| il12 | Creed: i started using Linux last friday. haha. this means I'm a dummy, and it also means I'd have to have what running it as a root means explained to me. ahh, ok. ty. | 22:29 |
| LuitvD | my sound stopped working from one boot to the other... how is that possible? | 22:29 |
| eyyYo | nickrud: Yeah, thats possible. :) | 22:29 |
| speeddemon8803 | NOBODY in here is a dummy! :) | 22:29 |
| juano__ | robbier: live cd or installed ubuntu ? | 22:30 |
| il12 | Creed: using the command 'sudo adept' doesn't work. | 22:30 |
| robbier | install cd, the "alternate cd" | 22:30 |
| Creed | il12, running programs as root is granting that program FULL access to your OS. Its not recomended but some programs do require it, so its still there. | 22:30 |
| speeddemon8803 | Some of us are just slower at the punch than others, but thats ok, we hold hands very well in here ;) | 22:30 |
| tuckerm | I'm runnig ubuntu edgy and i'm having a problem. Once and a while my ethernet dies but if I let it sit for a couple months (i dual boot hdds) it'll be fine. | 22:30 |
| boo | I'm in Hiren's boot CD and I need to fix my partition table and or my mbr. does anyone know how i could go about doing this? | 22:30 |
| h4ngedm4n | LuitvD: that has happened to me before, sometimes the volume controls mute themselves for some reason | 22:30 |
| strong_soul | shit dont ignor me | 22:30 |
| bunky24 | is it difficult to make a program amd64 compatible if i have the source code to compile? | 22:30 |
| juano__ | robbier: have you tried the live cd ? , what pc is this, video card , ram ? | 22:30 |
| nickrud | Creed, you should suggest gksudo with gui apps, it sets up the environment better | 22:30 |
| HardDisk | boo, yea | 22:30 |
| HardDisk | sort off | 22:30 |
| erUSUL | ^Useless^: http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/lofiversion/index.php/t48898.html | 22:30 |
| PriceChild | strong_soul, ask your question | 22:31 |
| Creed | nickrud, heh forgot to add the do to my gksu. | 22:31 |
| Creed | il12, do gksudo adept | 22:31 |
| LuitvD | h4ngedm4n: the strange thing is, I can't get ALSA to make a sound at all, and OSS does work | 22:31 |
| robbier | I have installed ubuntu 7.10 successfully before, and everything went fine. I re-installed the ubuntu 7.10 OS because just like every other time I reinstalled Ubuntu, and this happened | 22:31 |
| boo | I'm at the menu in Hiren's boot CD, but there are tons of options and I didn't see any documentation on the website | 22:31 |
| LuitvD | h4ngedm4n: but ALSA did work before | 22:31 |
| Creed | Is there any way I can see why my sound isnt loading? I saw something about "port not specified" regardin my CS43xx chipset during startup but it flashed by too fast for me to remember fully. | 22:31 |
| h4ngedm4n | bunky24: that depends on the program! i remember having issues in C where sizeof() was different on amd64 and regular x86 | 22:31 |
| tatar111 | JOIN #pclinuxos-pl | 22:32 |
| il12 | creed: this means I type it into the terminal command or....? | 22:32 |
| erUSUL | ^Useless^: they say that the quality of the encoder is low... you are better using oggenc | 22:32 |
| tatar111 | join #pclinuxos-pl | 22:32 |
| PriceChild | tarzeau, put a / before it | 22:32 |
| ^Useless^ | erUSUL, thanks *a lot*, that helps a lot | 22:32 |
| nickrud | Creed, you could probably see that in either /var/log/dmesg or /var/log/syslog | 22:32 |
| Creed | il12, yes terminal or create a shortcut of adept and add it there. | 22:32 |
| HardDisk | boo, go to the harddisk ones and do a physical check first | 22:32 |
| tarzeau | PriceChild: not me! | 22:32 |
| h4ngedm4n | LuitvD: yeah just double check it didnt re-mute it self. if that wasn't the problem, then i don't know how to help :( | 22:32 |
| PriceChild | tarzeau, sorry :) | 22:32 |
| Creed | nickrud, thanks. | 22:32 |
| HardDisk | under the harddisk tools, choose the brand of harddrive you have | 22:32 |
| PriceChild | tatar111, put a / before it | 22:32 |
| HardDisk | ie if you have maxtor, use the maxtor tools | 22:32 |
| LuitvD | h4ngedm4n: right... | 22:32 |
| LuitvD | h4ngedm4n: thanks anyway, but I slammed the volume slider up and down numerous times | 22:33 |
| boo | eh, i didn't build this comp, (im on my laptop) so im not really sure what the hdd is | 22:33 |
| juano__ | robbier: any changes at bios level or hardware at all from last install ? | 22:33 |
| godlines | could anyone help me with vsftpd and ssl? | 22:33 |
| LuitvD | h4ngedm4n: maybe it's the kernel... | 22:33 |
| il12 | Creed: gksudo did nothing... even when I tried reopening the program. And I'm afraid I'm terribly horrible at commands knowing very little about them. So if it isn't much trouble could you explain what you mean by creating a shortcut of adept and adding it there? I can make the shortcut, but adding 'it', it being what, and how? | 22:33 |
| LuitvD | h4ngedm4n: no other updates could be changing ALSA's behaviour | 22:33 |
| robbier | juano__: No, everything is exactly the same. I even double-checked the MD5 sums. Shoud I reinstall yet again? | 22:33 |

| vb | I am depoting my music files to my ssh server that has good speakers connected to it, I will directly play music files from this server using my laptop that is connected to it via wired network, how can I make my laptop play the files, so that the speakers are used, I googled to find out mpd is using for this purpose, can anyone help me achieve this ? | 22:35 |

| inSanity_ | 1152x768 is the maximum whilst 1440x900 is the maximum of the monitor anyone a clue? | 22:36 |

| LuitvD | h4ngedm4n: looks like the ALSA mixer slider got reset, which can't be changed with the media-keys | 22:36 |
| Creed | il12, do you see a field somewhere that says adept? An editable field, where you can change the contents of the field? | 22:36 |
| LuitvD | h4ngedm4n: it works now... | 22:37 |
| LuitvD | h4ngedm4n: I never use the mixer window :P | 22:37 |
| Creed | nickrud, any idea as to how to go about fixing this issue? ALSA /usr/src/modules/alsa-driver/isa/cs423x/../../alsa-kernel/isa/cs423x/cs4231.c:78: cs4231.0: please specify port | 22:37 |
| il12 | Creed: I'm going to assume you mean the 'command' field. it says 'adept_manager' | 22:37 |
| nickrud | inSanity_, you need to go to system->admin->restricted driver manager, and enable the ati driver, the default doesn't have good support for that card | 22:37 |
| nickrud | Creed, no, I know very little about alsa | 22:37 |
| vishal | Can someone help me install realvnc please? | 22:37 |

| Creed | il12, yup thats it, now before adept-manager, add gksudo, close the window and run the shortcut, it should bring up a box for you to enter your password. | 22:38 |

| vishal | vb: I try when ever i can, but i just started with ubuntu on wednesday lol | 22:39 |
| speeddemon8803 | vishal do you really need realvnc or would you like tightvnc...another open-source vnc alternative to real-vnc? | 22:40 |
| chaosrl | it then asks me to run /usr/bin/vmware-config.pl, which i do to no avail | 22:40 |

| vishal | speeddemon8803: never heard of it, i use vnc servers on my other machines as they run windows, and i need a client to connect, not to botherd what client as long as it connects | 22:41 |
| Creed | chaosrl, when you installed vmware (server Im assuming), the installation didnt complete fully either due to some patch failing to apply or missing deps. Try running the install again in terminal and see if it spouts our any errors. | 22:41 |
| il12 | Creed: maybe you can help me with something else quick. :s Adding a codec to Amarok? It won't play my MP3's and I've looked all through the config menu for it to see if there was a way to add them through there. | 22:41 |

| Slart | gang | 22:50 |
| nickrud | inSanity_808, did you try installing the driver from ati? | 22:50 |

| vishal | speeddemon8803: Slart: is it tightvnc-java that im looking for? | 22:50 |
| wols_ | livingdaylight: then stop asking #debian please. and for the future: #ubuntu only as long as you run ubuntu | 22:50 |

| Creed | wols_, its 1 program that hes trying to install, wouldnt it be easier just to use dpkg to install the package and be done with it? | 22:54 |
| vishal | Slart: hmm, i installed it and its not on the gnome menu, so i dont know how to run it? through the terminal? | 22:54 |
| TBZ | hey guys, what's the ps3ubuntu chan? | 22:54 |
| wols_ | Creed: yes. IF all dependencies are already fulfilled. if not. dpkg won't install it | 22:55 |
| Slart | vishal: try that.. try typing tight and <tab>.. see if you get anything | 22:55 |
| DaveG| | Hi, i've tried installing my Webcam with the OV51x drivers, i've compile the drivers and checked to see if they are being used with lsmod, and if i now use v4l-info it just says /dev/video0 not enough free space | 22:55 |
| Creed | wols_, ah, didnt know that :) | 22:55 |
| KinkyBlackGoat | TBZ: uhm.. I'd imagine a channel dealing with people who get ubuntu running on their ps3..? | 22:55 |
| Milotin | erUSUL, but when i : rmmod snd-hda-intel i get this : ERROR: Module snd_hda_intel is in use | 22:55 |
| vishal | Slart: no luck, not there | 22:55 |
| Slart | vishal: if you want a vnc client for gnome there is one installed by default I think.. gnome remote something.. or krdc if you like kde | 22:55 |
| wols_ | Milotin: modprobe -r. and look at lsmod output. other modules will use the hda-intel module | 22:55 |
| TBZ | Kinky: um, ya, ya think? I'm asking for the channell name not what is it | 22:56 |
| erUSUL | Milotin: you have to remove first the modules that depends on snd-hda-intel | 22:56 |
| Milotin | nothing happens when i modprobe -r | 22:56 |
| holden | Hello...is the Remote Desktop activated by default on gutsy? I think I might have found a bug on vino | 22:56 |
| vishal | Slart: i use gnome, just started so leaving it as is, | 22:56 |
| erUSUL | Milotin: when you do lsmod you can see the list of that modules | 22:56 |
| boo | wols_: hold on, switching comps | 22:56 |
| astro76 | holden, nope, have to enabled it | 22:56 |
| vishal | Slart: i'll look for the gnome remote thing | 22:56 |
| Milotin | but there are a lots of ... | 22:56 |
| boo__ | alright | 22:56 |
| holden | astro76: ok thanks | 22:56 |
| vishal | Slart: the add/remove progs says i have Kvnc or something install and its for KDE | 22:57 |
| Milotin | how do i know which is output ? | 22:57 |
| nickrud | inSanity_808, actually you got a good install with the ati, but for some reason it's claiming that your virtual size is 1152x864 , that's what the lcd is reporting | 22:57 |
| Slart | vishal: I'm looking too.. I had it installed for a while before going with krdc | 22:57 |
| il12 | ok, this is very sad. Is there a way that I can create two rows of taskbar icons so that mine don't have to continually shrink? | 22:57 |
| erUSUL | Milotin: maybe it is quiker just reboot the machine | 22:57 |
| vishal | Slart: Yh i think its Krdc that i have install but i use gnome | 22:57 |
| Creed | VNC uses the TCP protocol correct? | 22:57 |
| Milotin | i rebooted and the same thing i get in the terminal | 22:57 |
| wols_ | Creed: yes. port 5900 | 22:57 |
| Slart | vishal: oh.. why not use krdc then? | 22:57 |
| Creed | wols_, thanks | 22:57 |
| Milotin | snd-hda-intel still in user | 22:57 |
| Milotin | snd-hda-intel still in use | 22:57 |
| boo__ | wols_, http://pastebin.com/m2cec8bb9 | 22:57 |
| wols_ | Milotin: by what other modules? | 22:58 |
| inSanity_808 | nickrud: that's what I also thought | 22:58 |
| vishal | Slart: can i use it even though i am using gnome(i think) | 22:58 |
| Milotin | i don`t know | 22:58 |
| Khisanth | vishal: you can still use krdc :) | 22:58 |
| Slart | vishal: yes, you can | 22:58 |
| inSanity_808 | nickrud: I did it on 32bits the same and that worked | 22:58 |
| erUSUL | Milotin: example "processor 34596 2 powernow_k8,thermal" to remove processor i haveto remove powernow... and thermal first | 22:58 |
| Milotin | what should i look for ? | 22:58 |
| Xera^ | I have an 8800GT, when trying to boot the Ubuntu 7.10 LiveCD I cannot get X to start.. I get an error about low graphics so I click continue then nothing happens, I type startx and it says no devices found.. | 22:58 |
| vishal | Khisanth: Slart: so I can use KDE application on gnome | 22:58 |
| Xera^ | Anyone know how to fix it? | 22:58 |
| Khisanth | and vice versa | 22:58 |
| inSanity_808 | nickrud: now using 64 bits, but I had that working before | 22:58 |
| Slart | vishal: I think tsclient does vnc too.. that's the gnome one I was thinking of | 22:58 |
| wols_ | boo__: if you are unlucky your SDA1 now has a FAT bootsector | 22:58 |
| Milotin | i have this at via82xx : via82cxxx 10372 0 [permanent] | 22:58 |
| TBZ | So. I'm trying to get sixaxis support for the ps3 controller atm, I have it recognized and such, but, I'm not getting any button feedback. Anyone care to help please? | 22:58 |
| erUSUL | Milotin: that's a line of my lsmod output; but as i said you are better of rebooting the machine | 22:59 |
| Milotin | soundcore 8800 1 snd | 22:59 |
| KinkyBlackGoat | TBZ: you might want to try wording your question in a non-ambiguous matter before getting snippy at someone misunderstanding it :) | 22:59 |
| Slart | vishal: yes.. it will install some kde libraries and such but it will work nicely | 22:59 |
| boo__ | wols_, what does that mean? | 22:59 |
| erUSUL | Milotin: no you have to look at the line with snd-hda-intel | 22:59 |
| boo__ | well, i know what it means, but what are the disadvantages | 22:59 |
| Slart | vishal: the open source world mostly plays nice with each other =) | 22:59 |
| Khisanth | hrm | 22:59 |
| Milotin | libata 125168 3 pata_marvell,sata_via,ata_generic | 22:59 |
| MuDBluR | Xera^: boot without a graphic interface, and change the org.conf file to use vesa... | 22:59 |
| nickrud | inSanity_808, run amdcccle , see if you can alter the screen size there | 22:59 |
| TBZ | Kinky: I'm fine, I speak just fine, thank you | 22:59 |

| nickweb | hey folks, whats the best resolution to run a HDTV on? i have it hooked up to my pc as a primary monitor and it can handle 1080i.. Any ideas? N | 23:00 |
| nickrud | inSanity_808, the newest driver you're using now worked on i386 ? | 23:00 |
| Milotin | erUSUL, i have this : snd_hda_intel 293792 4 | 23:00 |
| Milotin | snd_hwdep 10628 1 snd_hda_intel | 23:00 |
| DARKGuy | Hey, what's a good program for printing game covers? | 23:00 |
| Khisanth | Slart: what other features does it offer? tight and realvnc were not quite up to it, it didn't send the alt and ctrl keys | 23:00 |
| Creed | Strange...lspci shows cs4231 as my sound chipset, but alsa wont work with anything but cs4236... | 23:00 |
| Koff | Hello, for some reason when i change the driver settings in winecfg, apply and then press ok, the settings isnt saved, when i go back into winecfg its back to default.. anyone know what might be wrong and/or how to fix it? | 23:00 |
| Khisanth | s/it/they/ | 23:00 |
| inSanity_808 | nickrud: yeah it worked fine! | 23:00 |
| HardDisk | nickweb, as high as it supports it. | 23:00 |
| Milotin | erUSUL, is that what i have to look ? | 23:00 |
| crush_groove | DARKGuy, Inkscape | 23:00 |
| erUSUL | Milotin: just reboot and be done with it the alsa subsystem is to complex | 23:00 |
| vishal | Slart: tsclient wont connect because it wants a username and its currently setup to only a password lol | 23:00 |
| Creed | Khisanth, GIMP (if you need to do touchups such as rotating the cover, adding textm etc). | 23:00 |
| inSanity_808 | nickrud : I have a Dell Latitude D531 | 23:00 |
| erUSUL | Milotin: you will not be able to rmmod the module easily | 23:01 |
| nickrud | inSanity_808, then you've probably hit a bug in the 64 bit driver, your best bet is the ati support | 23:01 |
| HardDisk | DARKGuy, or get openoffice cd cover templates. | 23:01 |
| Slart | Khisanth: krdc you mean?.. well.. it had a nice "scale" feature none of the others had | 23:01 |
| Khisanth | Creed: I am not sure how GIMP is going to help with vnc features ... | 23:01 |
| inSanity_808 | nickrud: I had it working before using 64bits | 23:01 |
| Milotin | erUSUL, so after reboot what would i have to do ? | 23:01 |
| Slart | vishal: did you tell it to use vnc and not some other protocol? | 23:01 |
| kitofhawaii | nickweb: 1920x1080 is native resolution for 1080i | 23:01 |
| inSanity_808 | nickrud: A week ago or something | 23:01 |
| DARKGuy | crush_groove, HardDisk: But will they print them real-size? they're for DVD plastic cases 7mm slim | 23:01 |
| Slart | vishal: but nevermind with tsclient if you have krdc.. | 23:01 |
| nickweb | HardDisk: its quite high - 1920x1080 - is there a program that auto creates an xorg config file for it/ | 23:01 |
| DARKGuy | and I don't wanna waste tint, it isn't cheap | 23:01 |
| Creed | Khisanth, heh wrong person. | 23:01 |
| HardDisk | DARKGuy, as long as you use proper templates. | 23:02 |
| erUSUL | Milotin: nothing if you added the line to /etc/modprobe.d/options with your options the nest time you reboot the module will be oaded with that options | 23:02 |
| HardDisk | nickweb, you on nvidia card? sudo nvidia-settings | 23:02 |
| Xera^ | Anyone managed to boot 7.10 with an 8800GT? | 23:02 |
| nickweb | nah, its a built in intel chip on the mobo 9its on the list of things to buy.. lol) | 23:02 |
| vishal | Slart: yeah i set it to vnc, but the password field is blank, im just reinstall Krdc | 23:02 |
| inSanity_808 | nickrud: I'll try another monitor, see if that works | 23:02 |
| DARKGuy | HardDisk: Alright I'll look into them, thanks | 23:02 |
| nickweb | HardDisk: ^^ | 23:02 |
| Khisanth | 1920x1200 :) | 23:02 |
| nickrud | inSanity_808, if you just downloaded from ati again, the driver came out on the 20th | 23:03 |
| Slart | vishal: ah.. ok.. | 23:03 |
| resub | my laptop seems to completely crash on suspend, and sometimes on shutdown. does anyone know what might be wrong? | 23:03 |
| crush_groove | DARKGuy, both are configurable | 23:03 |
| boo__ | Is it a problem if I have Grub on an ntfs partition? | 23:03 |
| HardDisk | np guys | 23:03 |
| Milotin | erUSUL, which line ? this one ? snd-hda-intel model=3stack-660 | 23:03 |
| DARKGuy | crush_groove: okay, thanks :) | 23:03 |
| vishal | Slart: yeah i uninstalled it thinking that i cant run it lol, im such a noob hehe | 23:03 |
| Creed | boo__, if you had Windows on that partition it is most likely unbootable now. | 23:03 |
| Creed | boo__, other than that no issues. | 23:03 |
| boo__ | does unbootable mean unable to ever be booted? | 23:04 |
| guideX | how's ubuntu vs suse linux | 23:04 |
| erUSUL | Milotin: yes; have you been paying attention to me? ;P that was the first thing i told you | 23:04 |
| erUSUL | Milotin: XP | 23:04 |
| HardDisk | guideX, both are good | 23:04 |
| guideX | i've tried ubuntu already, it's great.. but is suse greater? | 23:04 |
| HardDisk | guideX, use them both, try them, and see | 23:04 |
| erUSUL | guideX: what ansewr do you expect on a *ubuntu* support channel?? | 23:04 |
| Milotin | erUSUL, can`t you see what`s here ... before i can read what someone said to me another 2 pages appear | 23:05 |
| nickrud | HardDisk's answer :) | 23:05 |
| HardDisk | I used opensuse for years till I went and started to use ubuntu, I use both at home and work. | 23:05 |
| Milotin | erUSUL, to much activity :) | 23:05 |
| inSanity_808 | nickrud: that was the problem, putted it to Dell generic laptop screen with the right resolution | 23:05 |
| Slart | guideX: one's from Germany I think.. the other one's from.. south africa? =) try the live cd's if you want to try the touch and feel of them =) | 23:05 |
| erUSUL | Milotin: no worries ;) just add that line and reboot | 23:05 |
| inSanity_808 | nickrud : thank you very much for your time and energy!! | 23:05 |
| nickrud | inSanity_808, yw, I guess :) | 23:06 |

| vishal | Slart: hmm no luck, wont connect, can you help me install realvnc, i've got it downloaded | 23:06 |
| Slart | vishal: then something else is wrong.. changing client wont work | 23:06 |
| Slart | vishal: is the server listening on the real interface? not just localhost ? | 23:07 |
| simmerz | I'm trying to install the flashplugin-nonfree package, but the md5sum doesn't match up. is there a new version of flash that hasn't been added to the repositories yet? | 23:07 |
| Slart | vishal: is the server started? | 23:07 |
| * Creed jumps and screams like a kid in a candy store *SOUND FINALLY WORKS AGAIN!* | 23:07 | |
| vishal | it works fine when im using the included java applet | 23:07 |
| matti | Is there any way to override this protection, that protects you from installing GRUB on XFS? | 23:07 |
| LjL | !flash > simmerz (simmerz, see the private message from Ubotu) | 23:07 |
| erUSUL | !brokenflash | simmerz | 23:07 |
| ubotu | simmerz: The Flash plugin installation is currently broken. This is due to Adobe changing the tar file that the package downloads. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=636397 if you need to fix this immediately, but it's recommended to wait for an official fix. | 23:07 |
| [gquit]bombadil | how do you empty all the trash for nautilus? | 23:07 |
| matti | I want to install 7.10 and then manually install GRUB from LiveCD. | 23:07 |
| * nickrud felt like Creed when he got suspend with fglrx and aiglx | 23:07 | |
| vishal | the server, runs on 2 ports, 1 is the actual vnc server and the other is a web server with houses a java client and that works | 23:07 |
| Slart | vishal: perhaps there's some other settings you need to configure.. like port or screen or.. something else | 23:07 |
| simmerz | erUSUL: thanks | 23:07 |
| PurpZeY | Is there an updated list of Bluetooth devices/Dongles, it appears the Wiki was last updated in 2006? | 23:07 |

| alfermp | hello everyone i need i little help to install scribus 1.3.3.9 on ubuntu gutsy, Tk u | 23:08 |
| erUSUL | simmerz: no problem | 23:08 |
| vishal | Slart: so the realvnc java applet can connect with no problem. i think its because of the security keys and stuff | 23:08 |
| boo__ | alright, my ntfs partition shows up as fat16 in gparted (with a flag that says its unable to read it), and hpfs/ntfs in fdisk -l, what can i do to mount the drive to see if anything is there? | 23:08 |
| fjfalcon | hello everyone, can someone help with script. I need to start it every minute, how can i do that? | 23:08 |
| Slart | vishal: I don't think vnc uses security keys.. it's a pretty unsecure protocol | 23:08 |
| Benalex | matti: you can.. but you should know how to write the conf file :) | 23:09 |
| Slart | fjfalcon: crontab | 23:09 |
| Milotin | erUSUL, didn`t worked | 23:09 |
| astro76 | alfermp, sudo apt-get install scribus | 23:09 |
| [gquit]bombadil | Slart: there's tightvnc | 23:09 |
| il12 | Question: if I add a panel will some of my applications automatically have taskbar icons in the new panel as well as the old? | 23:09 |
| ^Useless^ | erUSUL, well, thanks again for your help, i am making some tests and oggenc actually encodes much better. plus i am really surprised by the Vorbis quality even at very low bitrates! | 23:09 |
| erUSUL | alfermp: go to system>Admin>synaptic search for scribus and install it | 23:09 |
| vishal | Slart: we'll its always going on saying its generating security keys and stuff | 23:09 |
| erUSUL | Milotin: :( | 23:09 |
| fjfalcon | Slart: can i see example about crontab, in man only description | 23:09 |
| Milotin | erUSUL, after reboot i went directly to the console and done : rmmod snd-hda-intel | 23:09 |
| astro76 | il12, if you add the "notification area" applet to that panel | 23:09 |
| nickrud | il12, no, not unless you add the applet that does that | 23:09 |
| matti | Benalex: You mean I need to write some sort of kick-start file? | 23:09 |

| Creed | heh nickrud, its been over 3 months since it broke and finally got it to work...No idea why it works once I tell alsaconf to use ccs4236 instead of cs4231, since cs4231 is whats in my system and what it worked with when I first installled. | 23:10 |
| il12 | nickrud: ty | 23:10 |

| matti | Benalex: Well I do know how to do this. | 23:10 |
| Slart | vishal: hmm.. might be a special realvnc thingy... | 23:10 |
| PurpZeY | Anyone have a USB Bluetooth Dongle that works, that they would suggest? | 23:10 |
| erUSUL | Milotin: my bad the line should be "options snd-hda-intel model=3stack-660" sorry | 23:11 |
| vishal | Slart: and when i use the standard vncviewer it says it couldnt connect because of the security | 23:11 |
| HardDisk | mahoon, is this during boot or your running fsck manually? | 23:11 |
| MuDBluR | PurpZeY: use it well... | 23:11 |
| erUSUL | ^Useless^: glad to be helpfull XD | 23:11 |
| PurpZeY | MuDBluR: Eh? | 23:11 |
| HardDisk | mahoon, also if you are running manually, NEVER run fsck while the HD is mounted. | 23:11 |
| nickrud | Creed, things change, I guess. My sound card was snd-hda-intel for a while, then snd-intel8x0m, then back to snd-hda-intel | 23:11 |
| checkers | hi all, I'd like to run a tracert on the IP of every use that connects to my sshd. is this possible, and if so how? | 23:11 |

| astro76 | PurpZeY, most do... Iogear gbu221 here works fine | 23:11 |
| alfermp | astro76, n erUSUL got it th u | 23:11 |
| mahoon | HardDisk: during boot | 23:11 |
| Creed | nickrud, lol strange little world we live in. | 23:11 |
| PurpZeY | astro76: So, if I go down to the local compu-supply whatever I pickup should work? | 23:11 |
| vishal | Slart: yeah, thats y i wanna try install realvnc but i think i have to build the installer or something and i dont know how to | 23:11 |

| astro76 | PurpZeY, walmart has a gbu221wm which is the same thing and a good deal | 23:12 |

| mahoon | HardDisk: i just wanna boot so i can get important stuff off the harddisk | 23:12 |
| Milotin | erUSUL, i got this in lsmod : snd_hwdep 10628 1 snd_hda_intel | 23:12 |

| vishal | Slart: local LAN | 23:12 |
| Slart | vishal: is there a special reason for using the extra security? | 23:12 |
| Benalex | matti: I don know whats ur prob exactly... but I hope you are doing fine :) | 23:13 |
| nickrud | Creed, what's missing? | 23:13 |
| vishal | Slart: I use it over the internet aswell | 23:13 |
| PurpZeY | astro76: I have the list, but the list is last updated 2006...Figured there might be more supported...Is there are particular "protocol" or something I need the dongle to support? | 23:13 |
| matti | Benalex: Heheh. | 23:13 |
| Creed | nickrud, one second, let me take a screenshot. | 23:13 |
| Milotin | erUSUL, and this snd_hda_intel 293792 1 | 23:13 |
| erUSUL | Milotin: as isaid you can not rmmod a module that is in use and trying to rmmod all the snd related modules ono by one is tedious and complex so the best option to make the changes to take effect is to reboot the machine | 23:13 |
| PurpZeY | astro76: HCI version? | 23:13 |
| HardDisk | mahoon, I'd suggest booting to a recovery mode or live CD and running fsck manually on the partition, then it will be marked as checked, and boot should continue normally. | 23:13 |
| matti | Benalex: I want to override ubuntu installer and skip installing boot loader. | 23:13 |
| astro76 | PurpZeY, no it's a matter of chipset support in the Linux kernel | 23:13 |
| vishal | Slart: so its password protected and its using 128 bit encryption | 23:13 |
| Slart | vishal: as far as I can tell from the realvnc site their free client doesn't support the encryption stuff | 23:14 |
| Benalex | matti: Are using GUI installer or text based installed? | 23:14 |
| mahoon | HardDisk: the problem is fsck is stopping on 65 percent, i imagine the same thing will happen from a live cd | 23:14 |
| vishal | hmm | 23:14 |
| Milotin | erUSUL, but i rebooted and after the reboot i didn`t opened anything but the terminal and the snd-hda-intel was in use | 23:14 |
| PurpZeY | astro76: Got it....Well, I am going to see if I can't find something on the list....see what happens. | 23:14 |
| matti | Benalex: There is such an option there, but somebody change how "continue" button works when Ubuntu installer is kindly informing you about possible problem with XFS and grub. | 23:14 |
| matti | Benalex: Yes. | 23:14 |
| HardDisk | mahoon, it's different from a livecd since you'll have more parameters | 23:14 |
| === ajmorris_ is now known as ajmorris|Nexuiz | ||
| matti | Benalex: I mean - GUI. | 23:14 |
| Slart | vishal: if you really want something secure I'd start looking into using vnc over ssh or something like that... but that's out of my league | 23:14 |
| matti | Benalex: I don't have alternate. | 23:15 |
| mahoon | HardDisk: ok i'll give that a go | 23:15 |
| erUSUL | Milotin: what are you trying to do by rmoding the module?? | 23:15 |
| mahoon | HardDisk: cheers | 23:15 |
| HardDisk | np | 23:15 |
| vishal | Slart: thats weried, mines always giving me messages about generating security keys | 23:15 |
| Slart | vishal: take a look at freenx too.. that's another way of doing it | 23:15 |
| tilgovi | I thought I installed ubuntu 64bit but I'm trying to install a .deb that's labeled amd64 and it says amd64 does not match my architecture (i386)...how do I figure this out? | 23:15 |
| Benalex | matti: at the last step in GUI installer there is advanced button... click it.. unchecll install grun to (hd0) | 23:15 |
| vishal | Slart: i would but i need something for both windows and linux | 23:15 |
| matti | Benalex: Yes, but you cannot do that. | 23:15 |
| Slart | vishal: the server might be doing it.. but the free client doesn't support it.. | 23:15 |
| IndyGunFreak | tilgovi: if you installed 32bit, be thankful... | 23:15 |
| Benalex | matti: why? | 23:15 |
| nickrud | tilgovi, uname -a , paste the output of that line | 23:15 |
| HardDisk | indeed | 23:15 |
| tilgovi | nickrud: Linux vissarion 2.6.24-2-generic #1 SMP Thu Dec 20 17:36:12 GMT 2007 i686 GNU/Linux | 23:16 |
| matti | Benalex: If you already specified / to be on XFS and you don't have /boot on ext3. | 23:16 |
| Slart | vishal: I don't know what tightvnc does.. they might have some security features .. | 23:16 |
| nickrud | tilgovi, 32bit | 23:16 |
| Milotin | erUSUL, rmmod snd-hda-intel | 23:16 |
| vishal | Slart: when i run it in windows it is able to connect | 23:16 |
| nickrud | tilgovi, the i686 is the giveaway | 23:16 |
| erUSUL | Milotin: but why do you want to do that?? | 23:16 |
| HardDisk | tilgovi, you've got i386 | 23:16 |
| vishal | Slart: cant find tightvnc | 23:16 |
| HardDisk | ie 32bit, stick with that | 23:16 |
| matti | Benalex: There is a warning message with two buttons - Go back and Continue. | 23:16 |
| Milotin | so i could : modprobe snd-hda-intel model=3stack-660 | 23:16 |
| Creed | nickrud, http://image.bayimg.com/daigjaabg.jpg | 23:16 |
| Benalex | matti : XFS??... mm this is beyond my knowledge :) | 23:16 |
| tilgovi | nickrud: but I have a /lib64 directory. I feel as though I installed 64 bit version originally. Is there a possibility that upgrade switched me somehow? (I'm currently on Hardy dev branch) | 23:16 |
| matti | Benalex: :) | 23:17 |
| HardDisk | u cant upgrade 32bit to 64bit | 23:17 |
| matti | Benalex: I never said I am n00b. | 23:17 |
| matti | :) | 23:17 |
| vishal | Slart: can you walk me over install realvnc so i can see if that works | 23:17 |
| reginoldrr | Hey guy's im using UBuntu gusty but when i load firefox and load youtube it wont play the vids... i installed flash-nbonfree? | 23:17 |
| Milotin | erUSUL, so i could : modprobe snd-hda-intel model=3stack-660 | 23:17 |
| Slart | vishal: I have no idea how to install it.. never used it on linux | 23:17 |
| nickrud | Creed, start by right clicking the menu, select edit, see if they're deselected for display | 23:17 |
| erUSUL | Milotin: if you add the line i said to /etc/modprobe.d/options that command will be issued at startup so you do not have to do it yourself | 23:17 |
| tilgovi | HardDisk: Damn...I could have sworn I'd installed 64bit....I guess I go back and reinstall | 23:17 |
| Milotin | uhm | 23:17 |
| vishal | Slart: its one of those packages where you have to make it i think | 23:17 |
| Slart | vishal: you got the package from the realvnc site? | 23:17 |
| erUSUL | Milotin: that's the whole point of the existence of that file | 23:17 |
| IndyGunFreak | tilgovi: why?.. 32bit, if anything, is easier... | 23:18 |
| jesse | !java | 23:18 |
| vishal | Slart: yeah | 23:18 |
| ubotu | To install a Java runtime/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre | 23:18 |
| Milotin | erUSUL, after you gaved me the right one didn`t i rebooted too ? | 23:18 |
| il12 | has anyone tried installing Ubuntu onto a USB connected external HDD? if so, how well has this worked for you? | 23:18 |
| HardDisk | forget easier, it's safer :) | 23:18 |
| === arnath is now known as bakarat | ||
| Creed | nickrud, oy, I feel like an idiot now. | 23:18 |
| Milotin | erUSUL, my bad if not ... guess i forgot too :P, brb | 23:18 |
| nickrud | tilgovi, and for hardy, ask on #ubuntu+1 | 23:18 |
| Benalex | matti : The Expert in some field is a person who made all mistakes in this field :) | 23:18 |
| Slart | vishal: ok.. try this then.. open a terminal.. cd to the directory where you unpacked the files | 23:18 |
| tilgovi | IndyGunFreak: Because I have a 64bit processor and I feel it's ridiculous not to run 64bit. Not everyone agrees, but you have to understand I'm coming from a past of running a tricked out, custom gentoo 64 | 23:18 |
| HardDisk | tilgovi, that is total nonsense. | 23:19 |
| erUSUL | Milotin: well i dunno if you rebooted or not... | 23:19 |
| IndyGunFreak | tilgovi: if you say so.... | 23:19 |
| Creed | nickrud, actually, they are deselected, but reselecting them does nothing. The checkbox appears then a second later disappears. | 23:19 |
| vishal | Slart: yep in there | 23:19 |
| Slart | vishal: you did get the sources, right? | 23:19 |
| Slart | vishal: or did you get the x86 packages? | 23:19 |
| HardDisk | your comment totally shows you have no clue what 64bit is or what you need it for. | 23:19 |
| HardDisk | but at the end of the day, it's your choice. | 23:20 |
| tilgovi | HardDisk: Please, dude. Don't accuse me of something crazy like that. | 23:20 |
| vishal | Slart: i believe so | 23:20 |
| tilgovi | HardDisk: I did say "not everyone agrees" | 23:20 |
| HardDisk | the OS itself won't give you the boost, it will support the 64bit applications that you will require. | 23:20 |
| il12 | OK. question: the time on my computer keeps going an hour ahead and I have 'fixed' this multiple times. | 23:20 |
| Slart | vishal: ok.. try running this "./configure" | 23:20 |
| nickrud | Creed, what's the permissions on ~/.local/share/applications directory? | 23:21 |
| vishal | Slart: i got this package: vnc-4_1_2-unixsrc | 23:21 |
| vishal | Slart: so i think thats a source | 23:21 |
| joyce | i just installed ubuntu gutsy all over again... is there any way to check that everything is OK? this time, it's been acting a bit buggy.... i don't want to reinstall again unless i know something's wrong... THANKS | 23:21 |
| HardDisk | unless you do mesh networking, or some form of high mathematical equation calculations or running for CGI, it's pointless since most of the apps you're running will be 32bit anyway. | 23:21 |
| tilgovi | HardDisk: Believe me, I know. I'm clear on the advantages/disadvantages | 23:21 |
| vishal | Slart: no configure folder | 23:21 |
| tilgovi | HardDisk: 64bit is what I want | 23:21 |
| HardDisk | fair enough. | 23:22 |
| Slart | vishal: hmm.. ok.. hang on | 23:22 |
| Creed | nickrud, drwxr-xr-x 3 ron ron 4096 2007-12-23 15:17 applications | 23:22 |
| Slart | vishal: you did type in "./configure" right? | 23:22 |
| vishal | yep | 23:22 |
| sjoerd | HardDisk: Actually on x86 that isn't true as 64 mode gives you a few extra registers | 23:22 |
| nickrud | Creed, hm, what about the contents, are they owned by you as well? | 23:22 |
| erUSUL | tilgovi: install the 64 bit version then i'm using it right now without mayor issues | 23:22 |
| vishal | Slart: i check the gui and its not there | 23:22 |
| vishal | Slart: i only have comman and unix | 23:23 |
| reginoldrr | anyone? | 23:23 |
| HardDisk | sjoerd, but not enough to be used as a comparison benchmark. | 23:23 |
| reginoldrr | Hey guy's im using UBuntu gusty but when i load firefox and load youtube it wont play the vids... i installed flash-nbonfree? | 23:23 |
| Milotin | erUSUL, ok , i give up ... i don't get it. i rebooted , done rmmod snd-hda-intel and still in use | 23:23 |
| HardDisk | unless you will use applications as I mentioned earlier. | 23:23 |
| Creed | nickrud, yup, owner and group are me. | 23:23 |
| Slart | vishal: ok.. check the unix folder.. there is a file there called README.. look in that | 23:23 |
| erUSUL | Milotin: but does the sound works? | 23:23 |
| vishal | reginoldrr: have you restarted firefox? | 23:23 |
| Milotin | erUSUL, no | 23:23 |
| Creed | nickrud, it did this after my upgrade to 7.10 from 7.04 | 23:23 |
| nickrud | Creed, that is odd. Try removing all the stuff in there | 23:23 |
| boo__ | how can i force-mount an ntfs partition that might be corrupt? | 23:23 |
| oxeimon | does anyone here have a ibm t61 15-inch widescreen with a 6-cell battery? | 23:23 |
| vishal | Slart: yeah im in the readme files | 23:24 |
| joyce | i just installed ubuntu gutsy all over again... is there any way to check that everything is OK? this time, it's been acting a bit buggy.... i don't want to reinstall again unless i know something's wrong... THANKS | 23:24 |
| Slart | vishal: ok.. cd into that unix folder.. and then run this "./configure" | 23:24 |
| nickrud | Creed, unless you have some custom launchers | 23:24 |
| HardDisk | because 80% of the time I get amd64 users who want to install 64bit ubuntu and world of warcraft and a few other apps. | 23:24 |
| vishal | Slart: sudo? | 23:24 |
| joyce | is there a check i can do to make sure everything is ok? | 23:24 |
| erUSUL | Milotin: you do not have to rmmod if it havn't worked rebooting then passing that option from command line wouldn't work either afaics | 23:24 |
| Slart | vishal: nope. | 23:24 |
| joyce | this is like the fifth time i reinstalled | 23:24 |
| astro76 | joyce, there is no check for "everything", what is the problem exactly? | 23:24 |
| nickrud | HardDisk, you mean I can't wow?!? | 23:24 |
| reginoldrr | vishal, ofcourse | 23:24 |
| joyce | when i tried to install my nvdia drivers, it crashed the first time | 23:24 |
| tilgovi | HardDisk: Nah. I'm a programmer and kernel hacker. | 23:24 |
| joyce | it worked the second time | 23:24 |
| HardDisk | nickrud, :) of course you can. | 23:25 |
| Slart | vishal: just "./configure"... lower case.. including the slash and the dot.. no sudo.. in that folder.. nothing more, nothing less | 23:25 |
| Milotin | erUSUL, and what should i do? | 23:25 |
| joyce | and then when i tried to install my virtual box it kept not recognizing it | 23:25 |
| joyce | until suddenly it did | 23:25 |
| HardDisk | tilgovi, I believe the term is kernel modder. | 23:25 |

| Slart | vishal: it's checking your computer configuration and software.. to see how it's going to compile the software.. this is very common | 23:25 |
| vishal | Slart: ok its finished what it was doing | 23:25 |
| tilgovi | HardDisk: Fair. I don't generally tend to edit code, but rather play with patches and whatnot. | 23:25 |
| tafsen | Is anyone here using Torrentflux-b4rt? | 23:25 |
| Milotin | erUSUL, it`s working but i`ve got such a awful sound | 23:25 |

| Slart | vishal: no errors? | 23:26 |
| Milotin | erUSUL, the speakers distors like hell | 23:26 |
| vishal | Slart: seems fine | 23:26 |
| HardDisk | there is no need to hack into the kernel, since it's sources are available. Unless you hack windows kernels, then that's a whole different hacking :) | 23:26 |
| astro76 | joyce, well it shouldn't require a reinstall | 23:26 |
| joyce | astro76, you there? | 23:26 |
| joyce | it did not | 23:26 |
| Slart | vishal: ok.. next step is compiling the software.. we do this by running the command "make".. no sudo no slash and no dot this time | 23:26 |
| joyce | it just kept saying my user wasn't recognized | 23:26 |
| HardDisk | tilgovi, you tried the realtime kernels? | 23:26 |

| Slart | vishal: in that same folder | 23:27 |

| seekerX5 | hi I'm having a problem | 23:27 |
| Slart | !flash | 23:27 |
| ubotu | To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash | 23:27 |
| ubotu | The Flash plugin installation is currently broken. This is due to Adobe changing the tar file that the package downloads. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=636397 if you need to fix this immediately, but it's recommended to wait for an official fix. | 23:27 |
| nickrud | Creed, also, make sure you can read the contents of /usr/share/applications | 23:27 |
| erUSUL | Fezzler: me ;P | 23:27 |
| vishal | reginoldrr: when u go on youtube it tells u, that you need to install a plugin to make it work, its in that list | 23:27 |
| Slart | reginoldrr: flash is broken.. check topic and a few lines up.. | 23:28 |
| tilgovi | HardDisk: Hmm...I don't remember specifically trying it. I do remember having real time mode of jackd working a while back when I was doing some audio stuff | 23:28 |
| vishal | Slart: its doing something again | 23:28 |
| joyce | astro76, you still there | 23:28 |
| Fezzler | erUSUL: How do I create a separate window that displays folks coming/going? | 23:28 |

| Creed | nickrud, would these permissions be ok? drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 12288 2007-12-22 16:10 applications | 23:28 |
| il12 | ok I went to install last.fm onto my computer and the package installer says that there is an older version and it's recommended to use that one since it is usually more supported. Should I go with the recommended or the latest version? | 23:28 |
| tilgovi | HardDisk: But I don't know if you're referring to something newer with more true real time abilities than that required | 23:28 |
| joyce | ugh | 23:28 |
| Milotin | erUSUL, i`ve done it \:d/ | 23:28 |
| boo__ | how can i force-mount an ntfs partition that might be corrupt? (mount tells me that the NTFS signature is missing | 23:28 |
| joyce | i don't know if i should do another install | 23:28 |
| vishal | Slart: yh seems to be doing lots of junk, maxing out my processor lol | 23:28 |
| joyce | it took forever to do | 23:28 |
| nickrud | Creed, yeah, the last r-x is you, make sure the contents have the same | 23:28 |
| tilgovi | HardDisk: I know I was running some subset of the rt patches for a while | 23:28 |
| Benalex | seekerX5: Say it!! | 23:28 |
| Fezzler | erUSUL: I like irssi but it is hard to learn | 23:28 |
| seekerX5 | thanks benalex | 23:29 |
| erUSUL | Fezzler: never tried to do shuch a thing... dunno if it's possible i just ignore part msgs on this channel | 23:29 |
| Milotin | erUSUL, in the alsamixer at the Channel option was set "2ch" , i changed to "6ch" and now is working fine | 23:29 |
| HardDisk | yea tilgovi, hey you do audioapps right? well i have a friend who has protools, I guess that doesn't work under linux does it? | 23:29 |
| Milotin | erUSUL, thanks god , and thank you | 23:29 |
| erUSUL | Milotin: congrats ;) | 23:29 |
| MrHippocampus | boo__: try and fix the ntfs partition with testdisk first, then try to mount it | 23:29 |
| Slart | vishal: and some more general info.. when you type "./configure" we ran a script in that folder.. the ./ thing is used to run the file that is in this directory.. not somewhere else.. like the ls command and such.. | 23:29 |
| Fezzler | erUSUL: It's possible. But thanks for responding | 23:29 |
| tilgovi | HardDisk: No, sadly. That's one area where we're really behind and it's the reason I keep a windows partition around. Makes me die a little inside. | 23:29 |
| vishal | Slart: it died with an error | 23:29 |
| Creed | nickrud, yup I have read permissions to everything inside as well. | 23:29 |
| nickrud | Creed, that is, the last is r-- , not executable is ok | 23:29 |
| Milotin | erUSUL, after 35 hours of trying , it was about the time :)) | 23:29 |
| HardDisk | haven't tried it yet or read on it, he's a musician with a studio and wants to get into linux...so going to do that for him next month | 23:29 |
| Slart | vishal: ok.. paste the one line with the error here.. just that one line.. | 23:30 |
| HardDisk | hmm | 23:30 |
| boo__ | MrHippocampus, there any websites for documentation about testdisk? | 23:30 |
| nickrud | Creed, then I'm not sure why it won't allow you to enable them, I've no problem and see the proper changes in ~/.local/share/applications | 23:30 |
| vishal | /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lXtst | 23:30 |
| tilgovi | HardDisk: Ardour is supposedly really good, but I haven't tried it. It's probably not a protools replacement though. | 23:30 |

| seekerX5 | I just installed ubuntu and set it to update via update manager. It started downloading 165 updates. I had also set it to hibertnate after 10 minutes - and I went for a walk. When I came back, computer shut down...and when I start it up, I can login, but afterward, the screen stays at the lightbrown screen with nothing showing up. | 23:31 |
| Slart | vishal: hmm.. one sec | 23:31 |
| HardDisk | tilgovi, yea gonna get that stuff for him on a trial box and check it out | 23:31 |
| nickrud | Creed, I'd ask on the ubuntu-users mail list, some really smart people there. | 23:31 |
| Creed | nickrud, alright, thanks heh | 23:31 |
| tilgovi | HardDisk: I've heard great things about ubuntu studio for that sort of thing. That'd be a good trial box maybe? | 23:31 |
| vishal | Slart: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49442/ there's the last few lines | 23:31 |
| HardDisk | exactly. | 23:32 |
| HardDisk | also I downloaded another audio iso, not ubuntu tho, one is based on suse | 23:32 |
| HardDisk | and the other..not sure | 23:32 |
| esteth | Can anyone think of a reason that the driver for my nostromo n52 (gaming mini-auxiluary keyboard) will let a button act as the ctrl or shift key, but doesn't work when i tell it to make the button an alt key? | 23:32 |
| HardDisk | ah the other based on dynabolic | 23:33 |
| crush_groove | esteth might be a keybinding conflict | 23:33 |
| reginoldrr | how do i get youtube videos to work then!|? | 23:33 |
| crush_groove | reginoldrr, add the restricted codecs | 23:33 |
| esteth | crush_groove: Ok. Any idea how i would debug this kind of problem? | 23:33 |

| reginoldrr | Xera^, it will tell u what service runs on that port | 23:40 |

| saxartist | reginoldrr: I happen to disagree | 23:44 |
| saxartist | Team Fortress 2/ Half life 2 work fine | 23:44 |
| reginoldrr | *sarcasm* | 23:44 |
| saxartist | oh | 23:44 |
| Slart | reginoldrr: how dare you call supertux a non-game.. I'm most upset ;) | 23:44 |
| reginoldrr | i wanna play wow thru linux | 23:44 |
| reginoldrr | how? | 23:44 |
| astro76 | saxartist, that's not very hot | 23:44 |
| MikeH | or can anyone tell me what the default sound server is under ubuntu? | 23:44 |
| esteth | reginoldrr: wine | 23:44 |
| Uberazor | reginoldrr - plenty of how tos on google. | 23:44 |
| saxartist | They say 70 is hot | 23:44 |
| reginoldrr | WoW is the best game in the world | 23:44 |
| chronic1 | reginoldrr: i think cedega has that capability | 23:44 |
| Uberazor | and yes, using WINE | 23:44 |
| Slart | MikeH: still alsa | 23:44 |
| saxartist | correct? | 23:44 |
| Creed | MikeH, ALSA | 23:45 |
| Uberazor | I have WoW running perfectly using WINE :) | 23:45 |
| vishal | i found that i get a lower fps on game when running from linux | 23:45 |
| fistikuffs_ | Hi i tried to install awn-curves using this guide http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=572019. It all went fine but now my desktop and panels are corrupt and i can't access files and folders through a GUI. I've completley removed awn and awn-curves but the problem is still there. Do i need to re-install? | 23:45 |
| Uberazor | vishal - you mean higher? as in better? | 23:45 |
| reginoldrr | vishal, correct. | 23:45 |
| saxartist | I get better FPS in wine than in vista, for valve games | 23:45 |
| Creed | vishal, strangely I get higher FPS in linux than in windows | 23:45 |
| MikeH | thanks Creed / Slart | 23:45 |
| reginoldrr | windows == better for games | 23:45 |
| Uberazor | reginoldrr, - i disagree, i get twice the framerate on linux in WoW :) | 23:45 |
| vishal | yeah a higher fps in windows | 23:45 |
| saxartist | So you're saying 62 isn't hot for a core2 duo? | 23:45 |
| MikeH | Uberazor, really? | 23:45 |
| Uberazor | yes mike. | 23:45 |
| reginoldrr | i doubt that | 23:45 |
| vishal | i run about 5 fps on linux, and 12 on windows | 23:45 |
| reginoldrr | screenshot| | 23:45 |
| vishal | i was shocked | 23:45 |
| Uberazor | and thats with only 1 of my video cards, i don't have SLi configured atm | 23:45 |
| MikeH | That's awesome, is wow OGL Uberazor ? | 23:45 |
| Creed | saxartist, farenheit or celcius? 62C is normal for a 2core proc. | 23:45 |
| Xera^ | saxartist: Mine goes up to 60~ while running Crysis with a lot of physics going on | 23:46 |
| esteth | Does anyone know if there is any way to debug keybinding conflicts? In particular, alt won't work on my secondary keyboard device. | 23:46 |
| Slart | come one.. go to offtopic and discuss temperatures and Wow =) | 23:46 |
| Uberazor | MikeH - i use opengl, yeah, because normal doesn't work, it freezes, but opengl is fine. | 23:46 |
| Uberazor | i average 120fps on WoW | 23:46 |
| saxartist | haha Celsius Creed. 62 Fareinheit would be :0 | 23:46 |
| astro76 | saxartist, 75 would be hot, 70 would be warm, 65 is safe | 23:46 |
| reginoldrr | esteth, don't be greedy. | 23:46 |
| vishal | Slart: thanks for the help, doesnt seem to work, i think i'll just use the java applet provoded | 23:46 |
| saxartist | I figured | 23:46 |
| astro76 | saxartist, so you are normal under full load | 23:46 |
| saxartist | thanks | 23:46 |
| esteth | reginoldrr: I don't understand | 23:46 |
| MikeH | Uberazor, I'm willing to bet DX games would give you a reduction in performance though. | 23:46 |
| Slart | vishal: ok.. stay with the stuff that's supported on ubuntu.. you'll sleep better at night | 23:46 |
| MikeH | under linux that is. | 23:46 |
| saxartist | I'm still curious as to why a simple 2D game in Wine is "full load," not even TF2 is | 23:47 |
| reginoldrr | DX games? | 23:47 |
| saxartist | oh well | 23:47 |
| reginoldrr | DS\ | 23:47 |
| saxartist | yes | 23:47 |
| MikeH | reginoldrr, Direct X | 23:47 |
| Uberazor | MikeH, yeah, more than likely, but WoW still runs very nicely with OpenGL, and in my opinion, it looks nicer aswell. | 23:47 |
| reginoldrr | what r dx gamez| | 23:47 |
| saxartist | Direct X | 23:47 |
| reginoldrr | o | 23:47 |
| Slart | saxartist: some stuff in wine is very badly optimized.. it's getting better but there is still a long way to go | 23:47 |
| vishal | Slart: lol, yeah im still trying to get away from windows lol, just moved on wednesday lol | 23:47 |
| Uberazor | reginoldrr - mmm.. you don't know a whole lot do you? :\ | 23:47 |
| saxartist | yeah | 23:47 |
| saxartist | oh well | 23:47 |
| saxartist | I love that it works at all | 23:47 |
| vishal | Slart: im only sticking around because of compiz fusion | 23:47 |
| Slart | saxartist: but this is a discussion for #winehq.. go there | 23:47 |

| fistikuffs_ | can anyone help me? my ubuntu is screwed | 23:48 |
| vishal | Slart: if it wasnt for that i'd be bak on windows a long time back lol | 23:48 |
| reginoldrr | vista is cool | 23:48 |
| saxartist | didn't know there was a wine channel | 23:48 |
| MikeH | Uberazor, That's a little harsh. You knew fuck all once upon a time :) | 23:48 |
| Uberazor | fistikuffs_ - whats the problem? | 23:48 |

| Slart | the ribbon? =) | 23:49 |
| vishal | 07 is amazing | 23:49 |
| saxartist | For a home user, I hate office 2007. My cousin explained why it was better for enterprise type stuff, but I hate the interface | 23:49 |

| fistikuffs_ | my panels are corrupt like half the default colour and half black my desktop background has dissapeared and i can't use the any of the "places" links on my top panel | 23:49 |
| vishal | nop its soo much easier to use | 23:49 |
| RandyboY | I have a SB Live sound card. When i have it in a xubuntu machine it works perfectly, but when i change it to the ubuntu machine it will not work. Any known problem? Ive tried googling and tried some of the suggestions, but no luck. In lshw it comes up twice(i only have one card) one with "product: SB Live! EMU10k1" and one with "product: SB Live! Game Port". The first one under *-multimedia and second under *-input. Any one up for trying to | 23:49 |
| jose | the top pannet will sometimes invert colors... | 23:50 |
| Creed | nickrud, get the plugin from microsoft that lets you export in the 07 format and 03 is perfect, I personally don't like all the shinyness that comes with 07. | 23:50 |
| vishal | bit strange when i first started but its a delight using it once your used to it | 23:50 |
| chronic1 | RandyboY: i have that card in ubuntu working fine out of the box | 23:50 |
| nickrud | fistikuffs_, that's screwed alright :) But I don't have an answer, maybe someone else will | 23:50 |
| jose | or sometimes there will be a white bar | 23:50 |
| jose | anyone else experience this_ | 23:50 |
| jose | ? | 23:50 |
| vishal | i think if it wasnt for 07 i wouldnt have a dual boot windows | 23:50 |
| LjL | is this ##windows? | 23:50 |
| RandyboY | chronic1, not here obviously :-) | 23:50 |
| fistikuffs_ | jose: its not just the panels though | 23:50 |
| vishal | yeah i went as far as setting up windows under vmware and got it working lol | 23:50 |
| reginoldrr | how do i change plugins in firefox | 23:51 |
| reginoldrr | like switch between flash plugins? | 23:51 |
| Pelo | reginoldrr, check in tools extensions, maybe | 23:51 |
| Creed | vishal, was just about to say virtualize it :) I virtualize anything I need from windows that wont work under wine/*nix. Even my work PC is linux with vmware apps for anything I need. | 23:51 |
| fistikuffs_ | should i re-install? | 23:52 |
| skullhead | is it best to use the nvidia drivers that ubuntu supplys or the ones from nvidia | 23:52 |
| * nickrud agrees with creed, vmware-server from the ubuntu partner repo is a lifesaver | 23:52 | |
| Creed | fistikuffs_, if you have nothing to lose a reinstall would be the quickest fix. | 23:52 |
| vishal | Creed: only problem is its runs slightly slow, and because im new to linux i didnt want to get rid of windows totally | 23:52 |
| Pelo | skullhead, if the restricted driver works use that one | 23:52 |
| reginoldrr | Pelo, there is no extensions in there | 23:52 |
| vishal | Creed: so i got it dual booting and then setup vmware to run on the same windows, but activate is playing me around | 23:52 |
| Slart | skullhead: stick with the ones from ubuntu.. unless you are very sure you need the ones from nvidia.. and you can't wait until april | 23:52 |
| Lucasg3[777] | brazil | 23:52 |
| Lucasg3[777] | kkkk | 23:52 |
| Creed | vishal, ah, yeah took me a while to ditch windows completely. With vmware workstation (costs $$) there is hardware virtualization, which is pretty damn close to native speed. | 23:53 |
| nickrud | skullhead, I'm just repeating the others, but you will find using ubuntu packages exclusively will make your system far more stable | 23:53 |
| fistikuffs_ | creed:ok thanks for the help back to xp for christmas! | 23:53 |
| Pelo | reginoldrr, you install some then, but that's not for flash and such, I realy don't knowhow you would change that, maybe they can tell you in #firefox | 23:53 |
| Slart | Creed: you get 3d hardware acceleration? | 23:53 |
| vishal | Creed: because of the 2 different sets of hardware virtual and actual, activation blows up and wants to be activated again | 23:53 |
| Creed | Slart, I wish lol | 23:53 |

| Pelo | jose, are you running compiz ? | 23:57 |
| Creed | vishal, yep thats the one I used, weird issue | 23:57 |
| left1 | oh ok thanks pelo | 23:57 |
| Pelo | afk | 23:57 |
| _-XPERT-_ | deadlock: Should work if you can get the card run together | 23:57 |
| vishal | Creed: yeah, i havent activate my windows yet as i havent been in for 3 days lol | 23:58 |
| jose | having trouble -msging | 23:58 |
| Creed | vishal, your virtual must not be able to see the proc directly. That is the only thing that ever made my VM want to activate again. | 23:58 |
| jose | one moment please | 23:58 |
| vishal | Creed: see the proc? | 23:58 |
| Creed | vishal, all my VM's see my proc as what they are in the physical machine. So if the host system has a AMD 3200+, the VM see's a AMD 3200+. If for some reason the VM see's a different proc (somtimes it shows up as a Intel P4) it wants to be activated again. | 23:59 |
| zkjellberg | Question: I am trying to give my computer a static ip address, but once it gets the static ip, the internet does not work. Yet I can ping the desktop from another machine. | 23:59 |
| Creed | zkjellberg, have you set the correct gateway? | 23:59 |
| vishal | Creed: how did you that? | 23:59 |
| Creed | zkjellberg, sounds like youre missing the gateway so no addresses outside your local network can be reached. | 23:59 |
| vishal | Creed: i think mines all virtual | 23:59 |
| vishal | Creed: are you using vmware server? | 23:59 |
