| Pirate_Hunter | whats the command to disconnect USB device through terminal? | 00:00 |
| Huffalump | Is there a command I can run which will identify which security scheme is being used? I thought the network I am connecting to is WEP, but perhaps I am mistaken. | 00:00 |
| Slart | OmegaCent1: samba is a pretty big collection of utilites... but connecting to a network drive is pretty straight forward.. check the samba internet site.. or the man page for specifics | 00:00 |
| Huffalump | ok | 00:00 |
| Slart | OmegaCent1: thankfully I've been spared the wrath of vpn's =) | 00:00 |
| MotherDear | No one I guess... | 00:00 |

| Slart | OmegaCent1: I'm not sure if you need the whole thing or just the client | 00:01 |
| Itaku | with the cd in | 00:01 |
| PriceChild | blah2345, adobe don't release a 64bit version of flash | 00:01 |
| Itaku | but then it stops at 50% | 00:01 |
| Huffalump | And mine is not WEP, but WPA2. | 00:01 |
| Huffalump | Big difference. | 00:02 |
| neverblue | blah2345, your excessive question marks are not necesary, please read the topic | 00:02 |

| MotherDear | No, not the installation, when I was done the installation, I removed the live CD adnd restarted. | 00:02 |
| neverblue | blah2345, obviously, but you havent read the channel rules | 00:02 |
| Slart | blah2345: ask adobe about it instead.. we're not the ones creating the package | 00:02 |
| blah2345 | neverblue: obviously, you didn't read what I said above | 00:02 |

| patogen | Check the launchpad site, it has a flashplugin (nonfree) that works for me | 00:03 |
| blah2345 | neverblue: it's okay, I forgive you; please don't make the same mistake again | 00:03 |
| Huffalump | I misread the info. In actuality, it confirms i was correct -> Group Cipher: WEP | 00:03 |
| Slart | blah2345: how?.. well.. it played flash files.. I don't know how it did it | 00:03 |
| patogen | con-man: Search for 7zip tool. | 00:03 |
| Huffalump | Well, WEP-40 | 00:03 |

| con-man | patogen: not in repositories | 00:04 |

| aaronm | Itaku: have you tried getting rid of the CD-ROM from your repos in the Software Source List and then "sudo apt-get update" then trying "sudo apt-get install g++"? | 00:04 |

| con-man | ty | 00:05 |
| Itaku | i dont know | 00:05 |
| Itaku | lemme try that | 00:05 |
| MotherDear | OK, so after installation, I took out CD and restarted like the wizard told me to, then while the computer was booting up, the first message it gave me was Loadinbg GNU.

| mike8768 | ok then, for calendars is there one that will start up with ubuntu and be open in the background so that when im on my computer i can look at it without haveing to open it im using evolution for my calendar right now | 00:05 |
| georgy_28 | Huffalump : wireless-key s:key | 00:05 |
| Slart | Pirate_Hunter: I'm not sure you can disconnect a USB device.. you can unmount it and then disconnect it by pulling it out.. | 00:05 |
| Itaku | after i updated it still stops at %50 | 00:05 |
| p34r | Megaqwerty: hey again; how could i set up my users so only my account has access to a specific passwd file i want to be kept from other ssh users accessing? | 00:05 |

| Megaqwerty | no one other than root can see it | 00:06 |
| Pirate_Hunter | Slart: I'm sure there is a command to umount usb devices that dont show on desktop through gnome terminal, I just dont remember/know what it is? | 00:06 |
| Itaku | i hsbr 175 upates is that good or bad? | 00:06 |
| Slart | OmegaCent1: it might be in the samba package.. I just dont know.. unless you're really short on space just install samba.. it won't do you any harm | 00:06 |
| mike8768 | woooooow | 00:06 |
| levander | I've got a XP box I want to add a hard drive to and install Gutsy so that I can dual boot between the two. Anyone got a link to good instructions? | 00:06 |
| mike8768 | thanks alot | 00:06 |
| neverblue | mike8768, that help ? | 00:06 |
| mike8768 | i need to be slapped | 00:07 |
| neverblue | mike8768, good :) | 00:07 |
| aaronm | Itaku: Oh so its frozen getting the packages them...Hmmm...I'd double check that your internet to that machine is working fully, then maybe switch the server you use from Main Server to US Server or vice versa. | 00:07 |
| mike8768 | dang ubuntu soooo sweet | 00:07 |
| Megaqwerty | p34r: sudo chown root:root filename to change ownership to root | 00:07 |
| neverblue | welcome mike8768 :) | 00:07 |
| jonny239 | i just installed ubuntu tday also got 175 updates | 00:07 |
| Slart | Pirate_Hunter: unmount is very different from disconnect.. "sudo umount /media/disk" unmounts whatever is at "media/disk" | 00:07 |
| Itaku | ive never had a problem | 00:07 |
| p34r | Megaqwerty: what is root:root? can i change that to my ssh username and also root? | 00:07 |
| jonny239 | took about an hour though | 00:07 |
| p34r | just so i dont have to re-login as root | 00:07 |
| Itaku | i just reinstalled linux cuz someone hacked me and deleted my /bin | 00:07 |
| Huffalump | levander, did you install your new hard drive? if you have, just boot up with the ubuntu CD and during the install, tell it to use that empty disk. | 00:07 |
| viator | i cant acces my other machine which has a samba share on it | 00:07 |
| Megaqwerty | p34r: root:root means owned by user root and group root | 00:08 |
| Slart | MotherDear: isn't there some kind of rescue mode? | 00:08 |
| viator | i can see it on the network | 00:08 |
| levander | Huffalump: What about installing grub, is there anything special I do? | 00:08 |
| viator | but cant connect | 00:08 |
| p34r | Megaqwerty: then i can make a group 'root' and add my user to it? | 00:08 |
| Megaqwerty | p34r: you can change it to root:username because I think ubuntu makes a group for every user | 00:08 |
| MotherDear | OK, so after installation, I took out CD and restarted like the wizard told me to, then while the computer was booting up, the first message it gave me was Loadinbg GNU. Loading GNU Please Wait... and then it freezes at that for more then 3 hours, (after that I shut it down) | 00:08 |
| jonny239 | how can i login as as root from login screen in ubuntu? | 00:08 |
| Megaqwerty | p34r: there is already a group named root | 00:08 |
| Huffalump | levander, by default grub will -at boot- give you the option between ubuntu and windows. you can edit a simple text file to change defaults. | 00:08 |
| MotherDear | anyone? | 00:08 |
| p34r | Megaqwerty: ok great, ty | 00:09 |
| viator | do i have to add this laptops ip or name to the samba file | 00:09 |
| Megaqwerty | p34r: you're welcome | 00:09 |
| Slart | jonny239: you can't.. and you shouldn't.. use sudo | 00:09 |
| Huffalump | levander, I did what you're doing several times last year when I was testing Ubuntu on different machines. It works pretty painlessly. | 00:09 |
| VideoGoBoom | Hello, Everyone. :-) | 00:09 |
| p34r | Megaqwerty: and i just do the sudo chown line, i dont need the chmod 700 line anymore, right? | 00:09 |
| Slart | !root | jonny239 | 00:09 |
| ubotu | jonny239: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 00:09 |
| jonny239 | but u cant login to root from login screen | 00:09 |
| === Billenium is now known as Winrar | ||
| Megaqwerty | p34r: no, you still do. the chmod line makes it so no one but the owner can see it | 00:09 |
| MotherDear | OK, so after installation, I took out CD and restarted like the wizard told me to, then while the computer was booting up, the first message it gave me was Loadinbg GNU. Loading GNU Please Wait... and then it freezes at that for more then 3 hours, (after that I shut it down) | 00:09 |
| Slart | jonny239: no, you can't.. and you shouldn't.. as in "do not do it" | 00:09 |
| Huffalump | levander, take a walkthrough here -> http://screencasts.ubuntu.com/Installing_Ubuntu_with_Windows_Dual-Boot | 00:09 |
| iclebyte | !flash | 00:09 |
| 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 | 00:09 |
| 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. | 00:09 |
| VideoGoBoom | I am logged in via a LiveCD. How do I fix my video/screen resolution? I messed with a setting and now it is blank when I boot Ubuntu. | 00:10 |
| p34r | Megaqwerty: but group 'root' can? | 00:10 |
| Pirate_Hunter | Slart: how different? let me explain i plugged in my n73 but it didnt pick it up in media so i needed to disconnect it before unplugging the cable... however ubuntu knows it plugged in but it doesnt show any interface... thats why it has to be done through terminal | 00:10 |
| levander | Huffalump: The other complication is that after I finish getting my Linux box all right (I have several things I have to configure) I want to take out the XP hard disk. You think the only complication will be reconfiguring grub? | 00:10 |
| Megaqwerty | p34r: so you might actually want the line to read chmod 770 if you want the group members to be able to see it too | 00:10 |
| Slart | jonny239: log in as your normal user and use sudo for root stuff | 00:10 |
| jonny239 | i changed the root pasword but i need to be able to acess it through login screen | 00:10 |
| Huffalump | levander, I would agree with that | 00:10 |
| neverblue | MotherDear, how many times have you started/restarted your system ? | 00:10 |
| p34r | Megaqwerty: how would i specify which group that would be? would it assume group 'root'? or what | 00:10 |
| MotherDear | I've re-installed about 3 times now. | 00:10 |
| levander | Huffalump: cool, tx, I'm trying it. Guess I just needed to verify my suspicions with someone. | 00:10 |
| OmegaCent1 | Anyone know how to turn off "TAPPING" on touchpads in linux? | 00:10 |
| === Winrar is now known as Billenium | ||
| Huffalump | levander, if you transplant that hard drive to a different system.... keep in mind Windows has some setting you have to change | 00:11 |
| Slart | jonny239: why do you want to login as root? | 00:11 |
| Dr_Willis | !touchpad | 00:11 |
| ubotu | For a comprehensive Synaptics Touchpad guide, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticsTouchpad | 00:11 |
| Megaqwerty | p34r: by changing the ownership of the file. chown root:root file means the file will be owned by the user root, and the group root | 00:11 |
| neverblue | MotherDear, always stopping at the same location, after the install ? | 00:11 |
| levander | Huffalump: did you say something to me right before I logged out? | 00:11 |
| MotherDear | Install, complete | 00:11 |
| p34r | Megaqwerty: so chmod it 770 then do the chown? | 00:11 |
| MotherDear | Loading GNU | 00:11 |
| Huffalump | levander, I forget the name of the setting, but if you don't change it then the Windows hard drive will not recognize it's new environment. So, check on Windows forums about transplanting hard drives. | 00:11 |
| MotherDear | Loading GNU Please Wait... | 00:11 |
| Megaqwerty | p34r: right. that should work | 00:12 |
| neverblue | MotherDear, so the install appeared to be fine (please respond with only one line) ? | 00:12 |
| MotherDear | and those are the first 2 and only 2 messages that ever appear/ | 00:12 |

| syn` | Hey all. Brand new to Linux, have an ATI Radeon 9200. Made a thread on the forums asking for help, someone told me I had to do something about making a new kernel to get the drivers to work. Have a few questions, tho. | 00:12 |
| levander | Huffalump: Thanks, but the XP drive is getting reformatted in a different box after I'm doing with it. | 00:12 |
| Huffalump | gotcha | 00:12 |
| Huffalump | good luck and have fun | 00:12 |
| Megaqwerty | p34r: note that by the user doing sudo nano file, they can still read it because sudo gives them root privileges, and you can't hide anything from root. | 00:12 |
| levander | Huffalump: I didn't know that you could move XP hard disks around. That might be handy for the future. | 00:12 |
| MotherDear | Yes, Install was fine. | 00:12 |
| Slart | Pirate_Hunter: I don't think the usb protocol can disconnect things.. you can finish writing to them.. you can yank the usb plug from the usb socket.. you can unmount usb drives.. but I don't think you can "disconnect" stuff from usb | 00:12 |
| p34r | Megaqwerty: oh... | 00:12 |
| levander | Huffalump: I gotta shut down to take a hard disk outta this box. Anything else? | 00:13 |
| neverblue | MotherDear, put the CD back in, run memtest, to confirm your RAM is working fine (it does take sometime to test) | 00:13 |
| VideoGoBoom | Could someone point me in the right direction as to where my video resolution files would be? | 00:13 |
| Huffalump | levander, nope I think you have your head on straight | 00:13 |
| Itaku | Megaqwerty on the topic of sudo im trying to eject a cd and it says only root can unmount this device. how do i do this? | 00:13 |
| levander | Huffalump: cool, thanks | 00:13 |
| p34r | Megaqwerty: ok well i guess i'll just use another password not my main one then | 00:13 |

| Megaqwerty | p34r: well, the passwords are encrypted | 00:15 |

| p34r | Megaqwerty: i asked #svn and they said i can't encrypt it which is dumb | 00:15 |

| syn` | Hey all. Brand new to Linux, have an ATI Radeon 9200. Made a thread on the forums asking for help, someone told me I had to do something about making a new kernel to get the drivers to work. Have a few questions, tho. | 00:16 |
| p34r | Megaqwerty: i'm talking about subversion | 00:16 |
| p34r | Megaqwerty: how can i revert the chown and chmod for the files i was working on :P | 00:16 |
| neverblue | syn`, before you get into it, have you tried to use the restricted drivers manager to install the drivers for your card ? | 00:16 |
| Jay-Oh-En | are there any programs to mod v3 razrs (the phones) | 00:16 |
| viator | i get an error saying homes directory is missing | 00:17 |
| viator | or has been deleted | 00:17 |
| wan | ?? | 00:17 |
| pike_ | syn`: the 9200 is very well supported i wouldnt think youd need to worry about the kernel certainly not have to recompile | 00:17 |
| viator | when trying to connect via samba | 00:17 |
| Megaqwerty | p34r: if the file was readable by everyone, you probably want chmod 755 | 00:17 |
| viator | where should the homes file be anyway? | 00:17 |
| syn` | everytime i click it, it tells me that my system doesn't require any. but everyone's told me to do that. could it be that i don't have the onboard gfx card disabled? | 00:17 |
| Megaqwerty | p34r: and if it was owned by your user, you should probably do chown username:username | 00:17 |
| syn` | i ran envy, by the way, and when i hit the ati driver, it told me my card required legacy drivers and legacy wasn't supported by my OS :( using 7.10 | 00:18 |
| jonny239 | ok i got it i changed the root password then added root to the login window user list now i can run the package that i need to run as root | 00:18 |
| bjames | Slart: I've been hacking at it for a while and there doesn't appear to be a simple solution, maybe a project for another day | 00:18 |

| bjames | cheers for the help | 00:18 |

| neverblue | MotherDear, did you boot from the CD and see a menu ? | 00:18 |
| syn` | ahh. okay. | 00:18 |
| MotherDear | yes, | 00:18 |

| MotherDear | Should there be text | 00:19 |

| neverblue | !envy | syn` | 00:21 |
| ubotu | syn`: envy is not needed or supported. Use the Resticted Manager to install binary drivers and see « /msg ubotu binarydriver » | 00:21 |
| Itaku | umount: /media/cdrom0: device is busy <--- how do i make it un-busy or find what process is using it? | 00:21 |
| neverblue | syn`, is this a new install ? | 00:21 |
| syn` | yea, completely fresh. | 00:21 |
| crdlb | syn`: you do not need the ATI driver with a 9200 | 00:22 |
| LjL | Itaku: lsof | grep cdrom | 00:22 |
| crdlb | and you cannot use it | 00:22 |
| neverblue | syn`, and the install didnt recognize that card ? | 00:22 |
| Enron | Hi just wondering i'm trying to install snapapi26-module package on debian, I was able to do it on ubuntu but debian couldn't find it. I added ubuntu's source list and updated apt-get and tried again still can't find | 00:22 |
| Enron | can someone help | 00:22 |
| crdlb | syn`: ubuntu will automatically use the only driver available | 00:22 |
| syn` | never said anything about it. when i look @ hardware manager it shows up as recognized. but that's pretty much it. | 00:22 |
| neverblue | there yeah go syn` thanks crdlb | 00:22 |
| LjL | Enron: 1) this is #ubuntu, not #debian 2) adding an ubuntu repository to debian isn't any better than adding a debian repository to ubuntu 3) both things are incredibly bad | 00:22 |
| pike_ | syn`: or you can use vesa driver for just 2d alt-ctrl-f2 then login then sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and select vesa then enter for everything else and then sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart | 00:23 |
| neverblue | ok, im going home | 00:23 |
| InGunsWeTrust | Is there any way to open p7m files used by outlook express in Ubuntu | 00:23 |

| Enron | so how do I install the package if ubuntu doesn't include it | 00:23 |
| Enron | LjL | 00:23 |
| Itaku | LjL how long does grep take? | 00:23 |
| neverblue | Itaku, as long as you like | 00:23 |
| Rockoman | Hey can someone help me with getting World of Warcraft to work on Ubuntu? | 00:23 |
| syn` | since we got the drivers situated, i guess. is there a way to get display stuck off my integrated? that's what my monitors on right now, not my radeon. | 00:23 |
| syn` | sorry if these are stupid questions, by the way. all new to me. | 00:23 |
| LjL | Itaku, that command should take a very short time. | 00:23 |
| Itaku | but how long does it really take | 00:23 |
| tuXXXinator | does anyone know of a gui for airsnort? | 00:23 |
| Itaku | well | 00:24 |
| Itaku | its going on 2 mins | 00:24 |
| LjL | Enron: but you said you *could* install it on ubuntu? | 00:24 |
| neverblue | Itaku, then let it finish, and find out just how long it will take :) | 00:24 |
| Enron | Ljl when I do apt-get install snapapi26-module it found it | 00:24 |
| crdlb | syn`: disable the integrated video card in your BIOS | 00:24 |
| LjL | !info snapapi26-module | 00:24 |
| ubotu | Package snapapi26-module does not exist in gutsy | 00:24 |
| syn` | hah. i knew that was what it was going to be. gotta update my BIOS, no place to do it in current. | 00:24 |
| Enron | moduels | 00:24 |
| Itaku | i need my cdrom unbusy | 00:25 |
| Enron | modules* | 00:25 |
| InGunsWeTrust | itaku: how are you using grep. Usually when you grep something it is used in the fassion "find / | grep fileimfinding | 00:25 |
| syn` | thanks so much :D | 00:25 |
| LjL | !info snapapi26-modules | 00:25 |
| ubotu | Package snapapi26-modules does not exist in gutsy | 00:25 |
| Enron | !info snapapi26-modules | 00:25 |
| crdlb | syn`: you can do it another way then | 00:25 |
| Itaku | i did how LjL told me to | 00:25 |
| syn` | oh, if that would be any easier. | 00:25 |
| InGunsWeTrust | itaku: and grep is instant but the find may take a while | 00:25 |
| Itaku | grep cdrom | 00:25 |
| Enron | apt-cache search snapapi | 00:25 |
| Enron | snapapi26-modules - Acronis SnapAPI Linux kernel 2.6 modules | 00:25 |
| LjL | Enron, not on Gutsy. | 00:25 |
| InGunsWeTrust | Is there any way to open p7m files used by outlook express in Ubuntu | 00:25 |
| Enron | snapapi26-modules is already the newest version. | 00:25 |
| crdlb | syn`: in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf, in the Driver section, it should have a BusID line which tells it which card to use | 00:25 |
| Itaku | is there a way to force the cdrom to get unbusy? | 00:26 |
| LjL | Itaku, i told you to do « lsof | grep cdrom». not just grep cdrom | 00:26 |
| Enron | LjL so would it be that I have an entree in source.list that might have the package | 00:26 |
| Enron | thats why I can | 00:26 |
| syn` | just switch that over to my ati? | 00:26 |
| Itaku | i did lsof before it first | 00:26 |
| LjL | Enron, if it says it's already the newest version, it means it's installed. | 00:26 |
| Enron | LjL yes thats in ubuntu | 00:26 |
| InGunsWeTrust | Is there any way to open p7m files used by outlook express in Ubuntu | 00:26 |
| Enron | but I need it in debian :( | 00:26 |
| crdlb | syn`: and change the Driver line to "ati", yes (you can get the proper BusID from 'lspci | grep VGA') | 00:26 |
| DigitalNinja | I tried compiling the latest kernel from kernel.org. It won't boot. Is there a trick to compiling a new kernel for Dapper? | 00:26 |
| Enron | #debian nobody has any info so i'm just trying to ask here if someone can help | 00:26 |
| Itaku | it got unbusy!!!! | 00:26 |
| PriceChild | DigitalNinja, why on earth are you? | 00:26 |
| LjL | Enron: yes, it most probably means that. type « apt-cache policy snapapi26-modules » to find out where it comes from. | 00:27 |
| simion314 | hi, i tried the other desktops xubuntu-desktop and kubuntu-desktop, and i found that i can;t uninstall them, i uninstall but the uninstall frees only 50 Kb of space, why? | 00:27 |
| syn` | dude, you're amazing. i love you. | 00:27 |
| daxroc | Hi all | 00:27 |
| Dr_Willis | simion314: because you are unistalling a meta-package. | 00:27 |
| LjL | Enron: however, i repeat once again, debian and ubuntu packages are NOT necessarily compatible, and using a debian sources.list on ubuntu or vice versa may have VERY bad effects | 00:27 |

| DigitalNinja | PriceChild: I've got a system with a core 2 6300. On dapper I only see one processor. I gutsy I see two. I would like to use gutsy server but the software I'm using requires Dapper. | 00:28 |
| georgy_28 | viator :766 | 00:28 |
| PriceChild | digital_, install the -smp kernel | 00:28 |
| LjL | Enron: that means that you don't have the repository you got it from anymore. (or that it's no longer in that repository) | 00:28 |
| DigitalNinja | PriceChild: I did that. No luck | 00:28 |
| simion314 | Dr_Willis: then i must uninstall all small packages manualy from synaptic | 00:29 |

| daxroc | Would there be any problems for ubuntu on an 8core system ( 2x quad ) 8+gb ram generally speaking? | 00:29 |
| luddite | Hi all | 00:29 |
| PriceChild | DigitalNinja, I would suggest going gutsy, then upgrading to hardy in a couple of months (after tests) and leaving it there as its LTS. | 00:29 |
| pike_ | daxroc: that would...rock | 00:30 |
| InGunsWeTrust | Is there any way to open p7m files used by outlook express in Ubuntu | 00:30 |
| LjL | Dr_Willis, simion314: however, you can try "sudo apt-get autoremove" after removing kubuntu-desktop. sometimes, it seems to not have effect for some people... i don't know why... but it's worth trying. also, for Kubuntu at least, removing "kdelibs4c2a" mostly does the trick. | 00:30 |
| PriceChild | DigitalNinja, a new kernel on dapper will bring a lot of problems | 00:30 |
| DigitalNinja | PriceChild: I have software that requires Dapper | 00:30 |

| pike_ | daxroc: i cant see a problem youd want 64 bit and the generic kernel supports smp | 00:31 |
| reya276 | Does anyone know if Gutsy supports, Wacom Bamboo Tablets yet? | 00:31 |
| DigitalNinja | PriceChild: Zimbra | 00:31 |
| DigitalNinja | it's an email server package | 00:31 |
| Itaku | w/e im idle now | 00:31 |
| LjL | Itaku: 1) there is no valid reason on earth why you would need to use "sudo" to just *search* for packages. 2) it's apt-cache search | 00:31 |
| LjL | !apt > Itaku (Itaku, see the private message from Ubotu) | 00:31 |

| preaction | Jids, which isn't what i asked, though using Darwin is legal yes. Using the OSX GUI and such without a license is not. you can install grub to /dev/hda4 (or whatever the ubuntu partition is) and try to get XP bootloader to see it somehow | 01:10 |

| sc123 | shouldnt I see my wireless connection on the system tray? | 01:16 |
| Jids | yeah, i realized that it's a bot now... | 01:17 |

| mkr | I have enabled the backports repository and now i am trying to install kde4, while i hve installed most of the packages(sudo aptitude kde4), some packages were not installed. They have entered into an infinite sort of dependecy hell. Installing kde4 requires that I should install kdeamusements-kde4 and other packages and installing amusements thing saya that i can not install these things... | 01:38 |
| gouki | Well, like |ns|nR8 said. If your router doesn't support port-forwarding, which I'm pretty sure it's required, place it on the DMZ (you should have a option like 'virtual server') | 01:38 |
| mkr | ...unless i install the KDE4 package. is there any way for me to override the dependency thing and install every single package manually? | 01:38 |
| gouki | Darkmystere: I don't think it's weird a router with no port-forwarding. But like I said, place it on the DMZ (it's not the best security measure, though) | 01:38 |

| levander | Can someone tell me why I am successfully writing to a NTFS drive off the LiveCD? I thought you had to install ntfs-3g if you wanted to write. | 01:39 |
| bod_ | hdevalence: is that for windows? | 01:40 |
| x-X-x | why do some games not use my usb sound card ( creative xmod ) even after i have made it the default sound card through asoundconf ? | 01:40 |
| Starnestommy | levander: I think ntfs-3g might be in the livecd by default, but I'm not sure | 01:40 |
| hdevalence | bod_: no, the unrar program you can get with Apt | 01:40 |
| Eyemean | bod_ i dont think any of that applies cause windows was working ok befor ei installed grub | 01:40 |
| Darkmystere | gouki:Hmm ok is there a way to make Certain programs think that the script that lets u run compiz isnt on because some games cant run if they notice its running? | 01:40 |
| x-X-x | why do some games not use my usb sound card ( creative xmod ) even after i have made it the default sound card through asoundconf ? | 01:40 |
| bod_ | hdevalence: not sure then m8 | 01:41 |
| Eyemean | could it be somehting with windows being g drive now bod_ | 01:41 |
| levander | Starnestommy: I just mounted the ntfs drive via the regular mount command. I thought you had to use some ntfs3g-config if you wanted to mount via ntfs-3g? | 01:41 |
| Starnestommy | x-X-x: not all games use asound | 01:41 |
| gouki | Darkmystere: Don't know about that | 01:41 |
| bod_ | Eyemean: let me have a quick look | 01:41 |
| driftwood | i maybe wrong but i understand that grub and the windows bootloader will occupy some of the same sectors at start of your hard drive , so one will always overwrite and interfer with the other (( am a beginner but did try hard at one stage to research this as Grub had some how totaly screwed up any way of booting into windows )) | 01:41 |
| Eyemean | ok thank you bod_ | 01:41 |
| driftwood | acidfire , stranger still u can create a new profile for a wifi connection (by clicking on new ). u can even give it the same name as your old one. this IS editable but does not help make connection ( maybe because i had to guess or leave blank some of the settings). sorry of little help here.. consider resetting your wifi to have minimum number of options, edit a new profile in wifi radar ,... | 01:42 |
| driftwood | ...and connect from there ??? | 01:42 |
| bod_ | Eyemean: wot exactly is ur problem? | 01:42 |

| Djerkaf | bod_: I have got that error on all old computers I've tried to install it on. | 03:08 |

| syn` | MasterShrek: that doesn't work for me. if i hit restricted drivers, it tells me i don't need any. | 03:08 |
| MasterShrek | Djerkaf, wherever it says 1999 make it 2000 lol | 03:08 |
| bod_ | MasterShrek: ur rite the milennium bug was a bios problem | 03:09 |
| Djerkaf | MasterShrek: It's kinda hard changing a digit that comes from the bios... | 03:09 |
| MasterShrek | syn`, you can use the vesa driver in your xorg.conf or try using the binary ati drivers from their site (vesa is a generic driver, youll get a gui but bad performance) | 03:09 |
| bod_ | Djerkaf: is ur bios up to date? | 03:09 |
| CaBlGuY | Pici: 0/ how goes it? | 03:09 |
| MasterShrek | Djerkaf, isnt there a way to change the date in the bios setup utility? | 03:09 |
| Djerkaf | bod_: It's an old PC, the bios is from that date I wrote, 07/29/1999 | 03:09 |
| Djerkaf | bod_: I guess | 03:09 |
| syn` | oh, okay. | 03:10 |
| Djerkaf | bod_: Hard to find information about it | 03:10 |
| bod_ | Djerkaf: yer i no,.,. find out wot motherboard ur using then search google for newer bios's | 03:10 |
| bod_ | Djerkaf: ul have to make a bootable floppy to install the new bios | 03:10 |
| Djerkaf | MasterShrek: What is it you don't get...? The date of the bios is 1999 and is IMPOSSIBLE to change, the "date of the world" is correct, that means 2008. | 03:11 |
| Onyx | yeah. | 03:11 |
| Onyx | date of the world. | 03:11 |
| Djerkaf | bod_: I have the latest bios for my motherboard. | 03:11 |
| bod_ | Djerkaf: r u saying that a motherboard u have has no idea that the world doesnt end on the date u said earlier? | 03:12 |
| Djerkaf | bod_: Is it simply enough impossible to install an ubuntu system on a computer from before 2000 ? | 03:12 |
| bod_ | Djerkaf: NO ,.,. i have succesfully solved this problem | 03:12 |
| JasonWoof | Djerkaf: mine is from 2000 | 03:12 |
| JasonWoof | Djerkaf: you might have to upgrade the ram | 03:12 |
| Djerkaf | bod_: Not really sure what you mean. The system clock is correct, but the bios is from 07/29/1999. | 03:12 |
| xoqa | Starnestommy: thanks, it's booting into kdm now =) | 03:13 |
| bod_ | Djerkaf: so wots the problem? | 03:13 |
| Fa | Djerkaf update your bios? | 03:13 |

| Librustralia | w00t I fixed my comp! | 03:13 |
| mklebel | is it possible to edit or open .so files? | 03:13 |
| Djerkaf | bod_: Well I get that error message, that should be pretty obvious from my first message here. :P | 03:13 |
| MasterShrek | mklebel, i dont think so, those are compiled afaik, youd prolly need the source code | 03:13 |
| bod_ | Djerkaf: wot error message ,.,. sorry didnt c it? | 03:14 |

| Rubin | shaft0r, does locate xorg.conf not print anything? | 03:15 |
| shaft0r | Rubin, I was using search in the gui... didnt try locate, sorry.. I'll try that next time. | 03:15 |
| Djerkaf | bod_: And you are sure of that, just like that, without knowing when the motherboard was stopped made? | 03:15 |
| Rubin | shaft0r, oh, i wasnt scolding you, was just curious if it was broken | 03:15 |
| shaft0r | If I backup xorg.conf and then run nvidia-settings, will i be able to restore it ok if nvsettings screws something up? | 03:16 |
| Rubin | shaft0r, yep. its just a text file | 03:16 |
| nickrud | shaft0r: yes, that's the exact right thing to do | 03:16 |
| MasterShrek | shaft0r, just remember what you backed it up as and just replace it if you need | 03:16 |
| Djerkaf | bod_: I can't even find my specific board on the manufacturor's homepage. I'm pretty sure I'm shit out of luck when it comes to bios updating. | 03:16 |

| Rubin | dsnyders, yep | 03:29 |
| Rubin | dsnyders, or replace them with a do-nothing shell script maybe that just exits | 03:29 |

| === pekc is now known as Pekc | ||
| Duke_Fluke | krazyj, maybe there's some overhead there? | 03:38 |

| Duke_Fluke | krazyj, i agree | 03:38 |
| krazyj | duke: although going without wep long term isnt an option since i live in an apt | 03:38 |

| bod_ | decay: turn off ur speakers | 04:07 |
| FernandoL | could someone help me get sound working on my ubuntu 7.10 gutsy laptop? | 04:07 |

| jay-oh-en | Rubin: ? | 04:08 |
| capttwinky | thanks achandr, I'll take a look | 04:08 |
| bod_ | FernandoL: more info plz | 04:08 |
| shaft0r | In all my linux days, you installed stuff like... make, make install and whatever... do you guys recommend using packages and the whole add/remove for every program I get... ie: VLC/mplayer, etc. | 04:08 |
| kharnov | Hey everyone. | 04:08 |
| Duke_Fluke | bod_, you're funny | 04:08 |
| bod_ | lol | 04:08 |
| bod_ | i no ,.,.lol | 04:08 |
| FernandoL | bod_ My sound doesn't work, I'm new to ubuntu. | 04:08 |
| Shihan | i love packages... easy to remove is their biggest advantage | 04:08 |
| bod_ | FernandoL: do u have a soundcard? | 04:09 |
| shaft0r | lol | 04:09 |
| bod_ | Shihan: i second that | 04:09 |
| Duke_Fluke | FernandoL, what is the output of "lspci -v |grep audio"? | 04:09 |
| FernandoL | bod_ it's built in, but yes, this laptop has sound. I had windows earier and it worked fine | 04:09 |
| shaft0r | Shihan, yeah... definitely true there. I'm sure you guys run into apps that are not in package form right? | 04:09 |
| capttwinky | I have two separate network interfaces that I want to connect to the same router and serve all the traffic over a specific port over one and everything else over the other | 04:09 |
| biouser | something with the sound/PCI | 04:09 |
| Shihan | its always quite frustrating to upgrade a box thats been built using non-packaged apps | 04:09 |
| kharnov | A friend of mine needs a bit of help installing PowerPC Dapper on his iMac. It starts up fine, but then it goes into a black screen and turns unresponsive. | 04:09 |
| biouser | lspci lists a bunch of sound card realated stuff | 04:09 |
| kharnov | G3 iMac, by the way. | 04:10 |
| achandrashekar | kharnov: where are you in the process the install? or ? | 04:10 |
| basy | how to install original nvidia drivers? | 04:10 |
| bod_ | FernandoL: in the top right of the screen u should see a little picture of a speaker,.,. does it have a cross on it? | 04:10 |
| kharnov | He tried booting into the liveCD. | 04:10 |
| shaft0r | Whats a good IRC client for ubuntu? using mIRC right now (remote desktop) | 04:10 |
| bod_ | xchat | 04:11 |
| tangwyn | or BitchX | 04:11 |
| shaft0r | bitchX still console only? | 04:11 |
| tangwyn | yeah, but it is still good | 04:11 |
| achandrashekar | kharnoc: okay..and did he run the "live + additional command" | 04:11 |
| Duke_Fluke | shaft0r, yes i need to learn it | 04:11 |
| Shihan | cat IRC-RFT.doc; telnet <server> 6667 | 04:11 |
| shaft0r | yeah.. I never figured how to navigate channels, but I'll give it a try.. i did like it. | 04:11 |
| achandrashekar | kharnoc: or just hit enter | 04:11 |
| kharnov | He just typed live. | 04:12 |
| bod_ | FernandoL: ??? | 04:12 |
| biouser | I going to die | 04:12 |
| === GodTodd_ is now known as GodTodd | ||
| achandrashekar | kharnov: there is an additional command he can type....that is at the bottom of the original boot screen. there is instructions for that...and then try again. | 04:12 |
| bod_ | ok | 04:12 |
| Duke_Fluke | FernandoL, help us help you | 04:12 |
| bod_ | FernandoL: cannot help with someone hu cant use a keyboard | 04:13 |
| achandrashekar | kharnov: when I did this...screen actually went white for a sec, then VERY slowly the live screen came up..and i mean slowly... | 04:13 |
| FernandoL | bod_ so you start a private convo with me | 04:13 |
| biouser | can anyone help diagnose my sound problem? | 04:13 |
| Shihan | shaft0r, for non-packaged apps (sometimes unavoidable), but just install into an out-of-te-main-tree location like /opt/<app-name> | 04:14 |
| Duke_Fluke | biouser, what is it? | 04:14 |
| biouser | how about some verbose booting? | 04:14 |
| bod_ | FernandoL: yer but u didnt reply | 04:14 |
| achandrashekar | kharnov: once I got past this, the actual system on hdd was very responsive. | 04:14 |
| biouser | Duke_Fluke, something PCI related, but it just turned bad after weeks of being fine | 04:14 |
| shaft0r | Shihan, ah yeah good idea. | 04:14 |
| achandrashekar | kharnov: as for 7.10PPC I had all kinds of issues on the install. Never got it to work. | 04:14 |
| FernandoL | bod_ and I respond, and you don't talk in the private convo, then you expect me to know that you switched back here without saying anything, and I don't know how to use a keyboard. To answer your question, no, my speaker doesn't have a cross on it, and my sound is not muted. | 04:14 |
| Duke_Fluke | biouser, Can you test with a live cd then? | 04:14 |
| kharnov | achandrashekar: Yeah, he can't install from 7.10 either. | 04:14 |
| dreven | hello I was wondering if anyone could help me with a perl script? I posted the question on ubuntu support forums a couple days ago but never had the problem resolved here is the link to the post http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4145560#post4145560 | 04:14 |
| tangwyn | I am using gtkterm to access /dev/ttyACM0, sometimes it takes hold of the device -- how do i release it? | 04:15 |
| achandrashekar | kharnov: so dapper did work..and it took that additional damn command...one sec | 04:15 |
| Duke_Fluke | Duke_Fluke, if it doesn't work there(and you know it should) then it could be hardware failing? | 04:15 |
| bod_ | FernandoL: wooo,.,. calm down,.,. i didnt see any messages from u in the private chat,.,. and ok ,.,. has ur ubuntu machine EVER played a sound? | 04:15 |
| kharnov | achandrashekar: What was that command? He ran live, and then live-powerpc, and neither worked. | 04:15 |
| biouser | Duke_Fluke, I didn't change anything but there is a message about PCI that flashes when I boot now and the sound is very poor. | 04:15 |
| atoponce | is it possible to change the physical hardware mac address of a nic, so that upon a reinstall, the new mac address remains? | 04:16 |
| biouser | Duke_Fluke, I suppose I could test with live CD | 04:16 |
| Starnestommy | dreven: tried sudo cpan install XML::Simple ? | 04:16 |
| atoponce | in other words, editing it on the hardware level? | 04:16 |
| Duke_Fluke | biouser, ok so it works albeit poorly | 04:16 |
| dreven | no i'll try | 04:16 |
| Duke_Fluke | biouser, what is the message? | 04:16 |
| dreven | oh i'm a newbie just trying to drop MS like a bad habit that no longer makes you feel good | 04:17 |

| achandrashekar | kharnov: searching for it now... | 04:17 |

| Duke_Fluke | yeah | 04:18 |
| tangwyn | how do I release /dev/ttyACM0 from another process? | 04:18 |
| atoponce | i guess what i'm asking is, does 'ifconfig <device> hw ether <address>' work across reboots? across reinstalls? | 04:18 |
| s0ulstice | My CD-Rom stopped working on me... Im not sure why, but can someone help me fix it. | 04:19 |
| FernandoL | bod_ aight | 04:19 |
| mewshi | I'm having a problem with dual-head | 04:19 |
| ratmice | tangwyn: can at least figure out what process is using it with fuser | 04:19 |
| nickrud | atoponce: no, you lose it at boot. You can add that stuff to /etc/network/interfaces to make it persistent across boots | 04:19 |
| mewshi | can someone help me? | 04:19 |
| Duke_Fluke | mewshi, what is your question? | 04:20 |
| atoponce | nickrud: no way to change it physically, so it keeps across installs? | 04:20 |
| mewshi | Well, I currently have two displays hooked up to my laptop | 04:20 |
| bullgard4 | What command will determine if a module is loadable ("m") or compiled into the kernel ("y")? | 04:20 |
| nickrud | atoponce: no, it's a software thing not hardware | 04:20 |
| mewshi | the actual screen of the laptop and an external monitor | 04:20 |
| atoponce | nickrud: so, it just happens at a software level only, eh? | 04:20 |
| atoponce | nickrud: ok. thx | 04:20 |
| Duke_Fluke | mewshi, ok | 04:20 |
| mewshi | Alright, I have it set up in xorg.conf for dual-head | 04:20 |
| Duke_Fluke | mewshi, gotcha | 04:20 |
| nickrud | dreven: welcome then | 04:21 |

| schnoods | hello i have session saving on my ubuntu where it saves the windows. Although it seems to close Eclipse/Thundbird/Firefox when i turn off Ubuntu but everything else stays on. Anyone run into this ? | 04:21 |
| nickrud | shaft0r: they would be in /media if they are mounted | 04:21 |
| mewshi | The internal screen of the laptop runs at full resolution (1280x800) but I can't get the external monitor (which has a maximum resolution of 1440x900) to go any higher than 1024x768 | 04:21 |

| mewshi | and we all know how crappy lcd monitors look when they aren't at the proper resolution | 04:22 |
| achandrashekar | kharnov: can you ask him to go to the boot screen where it prints a bunch of instructions..there it is when in doubt "type live" otherwise try "live video..something" | 04:22 |
| mewshi | k | 04:22 |
| FernandoL | bod_ nope :D | 04:22 |
| FernandoL | bod_ let me get on that | 04:22 |
| Duke_Fluke | mewshi, i wonder if its like windows were the two are tied together like if you make one monitor higher in resolution it makes the other smaller...know what i mean? | 04:22 |
| ratmice | biouser: avahi is multicast dns service discovery | 04:22 |
| nickrud | bullgard4: if you see it in lsmod (list modules) it's modularized. You can also look thru /boot/config-$(uname -r) to see the options used in the kernel | 04:22 |
| mewshi | No, that's not how my windows is O_o | 04:22 |
| bod_ | FernandoL: do u no about the synaptic package manager? | 04:22 |
| bullgard4 | nickrud: I will do that, thank you. | 04:23 |

| mkquist_ | s0ulstice: have you tried to open another disc, one you know worked before? | 04:35 |

| jason0_ | I'm trying to get my 3g nano to work w/ amarok. I've upgrade libgpod and gtkpod works OK w/ the device but Amarok doesn't. How can I upgrade to 1.4.8 version of amarok? | 04:36 |
| achandrashekar | Install question: on install, if X server fails on attempt to get "live" screen, is there another way to install?? | 04:36 |
| biouser | I'm going to have to reinstall ubuntu | 04:36 |
| s0ulstice | mkquist_: Yeah I just tried another disk and it mounted it ... You think the contents of the disk could cause it not to be able to me mounted? | 04:36 |
| biouser | shoot me now | 04:36 |
| jrib | !alternate | achandrashekar | 04:36 |
| ubotu | achandrashekar: 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 | 04:36 |
| biouser | might as well go for the glory and compile alsa from source | 04:37 |
| nickrud | jason0_: you'd have to compile it. Did gtkpod cause you to lose any album art? | 04:37 |
| nickrud | jason0_: or maybe use kde4 if it has that version of amarok | 04:37 |
| bod_ | FernandoL: in the terminal type "modprobe snd-sb450" (Without quotes) | 04:37 |
| s0ulstice | mkquist_: I wanted to watch this dvd on my computer. I tried a backup dvd I had laying around and it worked. But this Blockbuster dvd I rented wont play | 04:37 |
| mkquist_ | s0ulstice: possible | 04:37 |
| dreven | Starnestommy: Well i'm well on my way at least it will run the script now just getting one error which I can tell is an input error on my part in the cfg file thankyou | 04:38 |
| jeffMASTERflex | 1.4.8 should be available in backports repo | 04:38 |
| achandrashekar | jrib: okay... it seems then that the video card on the ppc box doesnt install cleanly..so its off to try the alternate..no guarantee that it will install X right? | 04:38 |
| jason0_ | nickrud: I don't have album art but a large music collection that seems to cause gtkpod to barf. | 04:38 |
| Fenyx | Ahoy. | 04:38 |
| achandrashekar | jrib: that is if i try the alternate?? | 04:38 |
| biouser | s0ulstice, try sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras | 04:38 |
| biouser | and maybe gxine | 04:38 |
| nickrud | jason0_: yeah, I tried it and it did some odd things here as well. I'll wait till the packagers get around to it myself | 04:39 |
| jeffMASTERflex | jason0_: enable the backports repo in synaptic. amarok 1.4.8 is there | 04:39 |
| mewshi | Duke_Fluke, what are you looking at? | 04:39 |
| Duke_Fluke | mewshi, i did notice one small thing | 04:39 |
| jrib | achandrashekar: it will probably install, but then it will probably fail when you try to enter X too. So you'll need to drop to a shell and resolve whatever the issue is | 04:39 |

| s0ulstice | haha nickrud: I did that and I ended up reinstalling | 04:40 |
| nickrud | haymaker: yes, ccsm . | 04:40 |
| ratmice | is there a bug in the alternate installer where you've already had LVM installed, and try to install ubuntu on lvm it fails to set up partitions for /? or am i just missing some part of the configuration | 04:40 |
| mkquist_ | s0ulstice: and youve installed libdvdcss2? | 04:40 |
| Duke_Fluke | mewshi, your screen section has generic montior and this guy has his exact model | 04:40 |
| bod_ | if ur having problems with compiz go to #compiz-fusion | 04:40 |
| s0ulstice | mkquist_: The 2 on the end makes me skeptical It does sound familiar | 04:40 |
| bod_ | FernandoL: ??? | 04:41 |
| achandrashekar | kharnov: well there is your response... he might need the alternate CD then it will allow an install through the text mode | 04:41 |
| FernandoL | bod_ it can't find snd-sb450 | 04:41 |
| schnoowork | hello i have session saving on my ubuntu where it saves the windows. Although it seems to close Eclipse/Thundbird/Firefox when i turn off Ubuntu but everything else stays on. Anyone run into this ? | 04:41 |
| kharnov | achandrashekar: Hmm, okay, thanks. | 04:41 |
| nickrud | bod_: once they have it working (since it's part of ubuntu) then #compiz-fusion is a good suggestion :) | 04:41 |
| s0ulstice | mkquist_: Plus for how many times I've reinstalled everything is blurring together... | 04:41 |
| mewshi | Wait, so you think that changing the monitor might fix that? | 04:41 |
| Duke_Fluke | mewshi, i meant your "Monitor" setting under Section "screen" | 04:41 |
| achandrashekar | kharnov: Frankly speaking on the G4 I had, I had an ATI card, and it worked....does he have the same?? | 04:41 |
| mkquist_ | s0ulstice: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu look there maybe | 04:41 |
| achandrashekar | kharnov: the install is a real PITA..but once done, the system works well. BTW, kiss flash-player support goodbye..it simply doesnt work on the system. | 04:42 |

| nickrud | FernandoL: each sound chip has a module (driver) that should be automatically loaded into the kernel (enabled) during startup. The sb450 (ATI Technologies Inc SB450 HDA Audio) uses the snd-hda-intel module | 04:50 |
| lex0 | when i type lspci no sound card | 04:50 |
| nickrud | lex0: is it a usb device? | 04:51 |
| lex0 | yes | 04:51 |
| bod_ | FernandoL: try pluging them in and see if the sound works? | 04:51 |
| achandrashekar | lspci: what nickrud said...its about "claiming" the device.. | 04:51 |
| FernandoL | nickrud: So that module will enable my sound? How do I install it? | 04:51 |
| nickrud | lex0: then it won't show up in lspci, try lsusb | 04:51 |

| crimsun | FernandoL: what's your issue with audio? (sorry, don't have backscroll) | 05:15 |
| mewshi | All changing the tv thing did was make it so it outright didn't work, Duke_Fluke | 05:15 |
| mewshi | what's DPMS | 05:15 |
| hunchybunch | vbabiy, maybe you need to customize in order for it to stay custom | 05:15 |
| crimsun | lex0: no, create it using an editor (e.g., Applications>Accessories>Text Editor), then save it as ~/.asoundrc | 05:16 |
| kjp2 | Anyone here using tomcat ? | 05:16 |

| nickrud | crimsun: he has a gateway mt3708, with a sb450 | 05:17 |
| crimsun | FernandoL: please download and execute the following script: http://trilug.org/~crimsun/alsa-info.sh | 05:17 |

| hunchybunch | vbabiy, i don't understand what custom does, i put mine on extra, and customize it. | 05:18 |
| lex0 | crimsum...exactly like --->./asoundrc? | 05:18 |
| FernandoL | crimsun how do I excecute the script? and can I just save it anywhere? | 05:18 |
| crimsun | lex0: no, literally ~/.asoundrc | 05:18 |
| lex0 | k | 05:18 |
| mewshi | Duke_Fluke? | 05:18 |
| lex0 | one last question, does it matter where i save it? | 05:18 |
| crimsun | FernandoL: save it to your Desktop, let's say. And execute it using a Terminal thusly: bash ~/Desktop/alsa-info.sh | 05:18 |
| Duke_Fluke | mewshi, hold on pastebinning :) | 05:18 |
| mewshi | Oh ^_^ | 05:18 |
| mewshi | ok | 05:18 |
| crimsun | lex0: yes, it matters. That's why you should use "~/.asoundrc" | 05:18 |
| nickrud | FernandoL: click the link, and download it to your desktop, then chmod ~/Desktop/alsa-info.sh && ~/alsa-info.sh | 05:19 |

| bod_ | yep this is the line as it looks on my terminal -- bod@bod-desktop:~$ <bod_> | 05:22 |
| zcat[1] | or you could try tar xzvf ~/Desktop/firefox-3.0b2.tar.bz2 | 05:22 |
| kr00l | bazhang, yeah i want it but don't know how to get it | 05:22 |
| ocha | badkitty, I didn't even see anyone reply to the first message. I was going to repost the same question in this channel and found out someone responded to me a long time ago | 05:22 |
| bod_ | without the ,bod_. bit | 05:22 |
| zcat[1] | bod_: you're in ~, not ~/Desktop then | 05:23 |
| FernandoL | nickrud: yep | 05:23 |
| bazhang | kr00l: there are some walkthroughs on the net--have you taken a look yet? | 05:23 |
| bod_ | zcat[1]: nob ,.,. cheers | 05:23 |
| Duke_Fluke | mewshi, sorry took so long http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/52229/ | 05:23 |
| mewshi | kr00l, you have a composite thing running, yeah? | 05:23 |
| kr00l | bazhang, i don't know what it's called | 05:23 |
| nickrud | FernandoL: then type: chmod u+x alsa-info.sh , then type ./alsa-info.sh | 05:23 |
| mewshi | kr00l, what you're looking for is called AWN (avant window navigator) | 05:23 |
| bazhang | kr00l: avant window navigator (awn) | 05:23 |
| kr00l | mewshi, yeah compiz | 05:23 |
| nickrud | FernandoL: that makes it executable, then runs it | 05:24 |
| avis | i have an external backup drive thats formatted to ext3. i keep a bunch of music albums on it and when i mount it using -t ext3 /dev/sdb1 /media/disk-1 well, i can navigate the folders ok in it, and sample music songs one by one, but if i continue going through and sampling songs, i might get to where files wont be recognized. the icon will turn to a paper leaf and they wont be playable until i logout and remount it | 05:24 |
| FernandoL | that worked lol | 05:24 |
| bod_ | zcat[1]: cheers dude that was the prob | 05:24 |

| crimsun | FernandoL: please install the linux-backports-modules-$(uname -r) package | 05:26 |
| Duke_Fluke | mewshi, maybe you need to research your monitors settings? | 05:26 |
| crimsun | FernandoL: afterward, please reboot. | 05:26 |
| mewshi | Duke_Fluke, when I changed the monitor and stuff, it said that it couldn't find a reference to "Magnavox TV" | 05:26 |
| FernandoL | crimsun: what command do I type to install that? | 05:27 |
| nickrud | FernandoL: since that's probably greek to you, type in a terminal: sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-$(uname -r) | 05:27 |
| Duke_Fluke | hmmm then can we put some generic settings manually? | 05:27 |
| FernandoL | nickrud: thanks, crimsun: nevermind :D | 05:27 |

| bod_ | Gekkomon_Shogun: u need to install the flash plugin | 05:31 |
| mewshi | Duke_Fluke, if it's not too much trouble, could you give me the whole xorg.conf? When I changed the monitor, it wouldn't start x at ALL :\ | 05:31 |
| bod_ | Gekkomon_Shogun use synaptic and search for firefox to c if u have them | 05:31 |
| nickrud | FernandoL: those repos are on the updates tab of software sources | 05:31 |
| Duke_Fluke | sure | 05:31 |

| Gekkomon_Shogun | hey bod_ what file am i looking for | 05:34 |
| fuzzy | PDFs are blurry as hell, ive tried 3 different programs, should i just stab myself in the face? | 05:34 |
| === Q_Continuum is now known as Q_Contoxicated | ||
| CarlFK | hmm, mixer_app /dev/snd/controlC0 - which is normal, right? maybe I should back up. is there a "troubleshooting sound issues" page? it made noise an hour ago, so I have the right sound card drivers | 05:35 |
| juso | When I run: find "/home/servers/*/databases -mtime +15 | xargs rm -f" from command line it works just fine, but when its in a cron script it doesn't seem to rm anything. Anyone have an idea? | 05:36 |
| bod_ | Gekkomon_Shogun: anything that has the word "plugin" in the description | 05:36 |
| zcat[1] | I open pdf's in evince, and I've never had a problem with them being blurry... | 05:36 |
| crimsun | CarlFK: that's normal. That's the speaker icon (mixer applet) in the right of the top panel. | 05:36 |
| crimsun | CarlFK: what's the issue? | 05:36 |
| [deXter] | Does ubuntu come with flash, pdf, mp3, dvd support out of the box without any installation? | 05:36 |
| CarlFK | crimsun: ok. mplayer sound.wav works. play sound.wav doesn't | 05:36 |
| MasterShrek | fuzzy, are they all blurry? did u try at different zoom levels? | 05:36 |
| MasterShrek | [deXter], no, no, no and no lol | 05:36 |
| fuzzy | they eventually get better, after 15 minutes of loading | 05:37 |
| Duke_Fluke | mewshi, whats your lcds exact model the magnavox? | 05:37 |
| bazhang | [deXter]: not all, no | 05:37 |
| Q_Contoxicated | [deXter], out of your list, pdf only. flash and mp3 prompt you, DVD is a little more tricky | 05:37 |
| zcat[1] | [deXter]: no, unfortunately it can't due to various laws and restrictions | 05:37 |
| [deXter] | MasterShrek, thanks a lot, just wanted to confirm it. | 05:37 |
| mewshi | 19MF337B | 05:37 |
| crimsun | CarlFK: play, from sox? | 05:37 |
| zcat[1] | [deXter]: if you enable the medibuntu repository, and apt-get install libdvdcss2 ubuntu-restricted-extras, you will get pretty much all of that installed for you though | 05:38 |
| Q_Contoxicated | [deXter], when you fire up Firefox and hit a Flash-enabled page it will prompt you, same with MP3s and similar patent-encumbered file types, to automagically install. | 05:38 |
| crimsun | CarlFK: does `aplay /usr/share/sounds/*up.wav`? | 05:38 |
| CarlFK | crimsun: yes | 05:38 |
| CarlFK | er, yes sox. trying aplay | 05:38 |
| [deXter] | Q_Contoxicated, yes, thanks. I just wanted to confirm if anything changed in Gusy. | 05:38 |
| === x86- is now known as z80asm | ||
| [deXter] | *gutsy | 05:38 |
| turk09 | where are turks | 05:39 |
| Q_Contoxicated | [deXter], Aaah. Flash has two choices now: Adobe/Macromedia, and GPL'd version (I forget the name, I want to say GNASH) | 05:39 |
| Duke_Fluke | mewshi, check out this guys settings: http://www.netreveal.com/ddalton/2006/09/samsung_lcd_tv_xorgconf_settin.html | 05:39 |
| mewshi | I just need to know what all to change :'( | 05:39 |
| CarlFK | crimsun: aplay same error as play: ALSA lib confmisc.c:769:(parse_card) cannot find card '�WoPCI' | 05:39 |
| zcat[1] | [deXter]: I would point out that windows also cannot play flash, many media formats, or dvd's without adding additional software.. | 05:39 |
| mewshi | what's the "DisplaySize" line do O-o | 05:40 |
| crimsun | CarlFK: do you have an ~/.asoundrc and/or /etc/asound.conf ? | 05:40 |
| andresj | is there a command line tool that will generate for me pie graphs and similar? or maybe with python bindings? | 05:40 |
| Duke_Fluke | mewshi to do that you need to know your monitor.....good question the pixels maybe? like the native resolution or something? | 05:40 |
| zcat[1] | Oh, and yes, ubuntu coems with evice to display pdf's, and openoffice.org which can save directly to pdf... | 05:40 |
| mewshi | 1440x900 | 05:40 |
| mewshi | which is why the "mode" line says "1440x900" | 05:41 |
| kaboombob | does anybody in here refer to themselves as an ubuntu guru? | 05:41 |
| zcat[1] | so the answer was 'no, yes, no no and no' I think... | 05:41 |
| Duke_Fluke | ok | 05:41 |
| fuzzy | is there a reason why that pdf viewer clogs my computer to the point of non usuability? | 05:41 |
| crimsun | kaboombob: hopefully not. | 05:41 |
| * nickrud looks around and laughs himself sick | 05:41 | |
| kaboombob | crimsun why not? | 05:42 |
| Duke_Fluke | mewshi, just experiment abit use the samsung as a guide and play around with it...its easy to restart X | 05:42 |
| mewshi | last time I changed any of those lines, it screwed up, and X wouldn't start | 05:42 |
| mewshi | at all | 05:42 |

| zcat[1] | fuzzy: either your computer sucks, or you're trying to view very broken pdf's .. | 05:42 |
| crimsun | kaboombob: something involving meditation... | 05:42 |
| kaboombob | crimsun in reference to knowing a vast majority of the ins and outs of ubuntu not meditation | 05:43 |
| crimsun | CarlFK: meaning, if you have either, try removing it/them | 05:43 |
| CarlFK | http://dpaste.com/31334/ | 05:43 |
| marx2k | How does one change the ports apache listens on? | 05:44 |
| CarlFK | crimsun: ill try removing - do I need to restart anything after removing? | 05:44 |
| crimsun | CarlFK: no, just restart the alsa apps | 05:44 |
| Flannel | marx2k: change it in your vhost (thats the sites in /sites-available) and also make sure the port is in ports.conf | 05:44 |
| zcat[1] | intersting anecdote ... the last time I ran into a problem with 'ubuntu can't open this pdf' it turned out that the download had failed, the file was an html 404 page, with a pdf extension... | 05:45 |
| bazhang | haha | 05:45 |
| marx2k | Flannel: Do you happen to know a link to a tutorial for that? I only installed the xampp suite today and dont know default dirs for those files even | 05:45 |
| cristian_ | Hola | 05:45 |

| mandelson | how do i install beryl wit all the effects | 05:46 |
| kaboombob | im looking for some help connecting my mp3 player can i get some help | 05:46 |
| bazhang | mandelson: beryl is now compiz-fusion | 05:46 |
| crimsun | CarlFK: what addition issues did you have with alsa? | 05:46 |
| crimsun | additional* | 05:46 |
| mandelson | lol | 05:46 |
| zcat[1] | mandelson: beryl is depricated, you want compiz fusion. If you're running gutsy you already have compiz-fusion | 05:46 |
| mewshi | Ok, Duke_Fluke, what exactly do I need to change? :\ | 05:46 |
| mandelson | ok | 05:46 |
| kaboombob | mandelson or emerald to get the same style setup as beryl | 05:46 |
| mandelson | so why cant i use the birds eye view and cube effect | 05:47 |
| deque | I have an nfs kernel space server that has suddenly stopped starting correctly. It says it starts, but fails to actually listen on 2049 (according to netstat), but is listening on 2049 according to rpcinfo. Any thoughts? | 05:47 |
| crimsun | kaboombob: (side reference to AmigaOS, but nevermind.) | 05:47 |
| bazhang | kaboombob: what mp3 player | 05:47 |
| SinNoAria | I can't believe I'm asking this, but where can I get bcm43xx-fwcutter? | 05:47 |
| zcat[1] | mandelson: you want compizconfig-manager (or something close to that) to turn on the various effects | 05:47 |
| bazhang | !ccsm | mandelson | 05:47 |
| ubotu | mandelson: To enable advanced customization of desktop effects in Ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy), install 'compizconfig-settings-manager'. A new option will appear in your appearance properties - See also !compiz - Help in #compiz-fusion | 05:47 |
| crimsun | SinNoAria: universe. | 05:47 |
| CarlFK | crimsun: this started when I was trying to use Ekiga SIP phone. the wizard had a test button, i hit it and got error dialogs. so trying to figure out what the problem was. | 05:47 |
| kaboombob | bazhang its a panasonic that runs on a usb 1.x connection | 05:47 |
| zcat[1] | yeah, that one... 'compizconfig-settings-manager' | 05:47 |
| SinNoAria | crimsun: >_< That is true >_< | 05:48 |
| mandelson | thnx | 05:48 |
| Duke_Fluke | mewshi the Monitor "screen" I THINK you need to enter your monitors specific settings what is the exact model of your magnavox? | 05:48 |
| bazhang | kaboombob: what make and model? panasonic ... | 05:48 |
| zcat[1] | mandelson: and restricted drivers for your video card, if you haven't already installed them.. | 05:48 |
| Patrickva | Is Ubuntu a good distro to learn the CLI on? | 05:48 |
| deque | Patrickva: short answer: yes | 05:49 |

| UberDay | question? on gutsy is there a way i can up the virtual memory? | 05:49 |
| kaboombob | bazhang sv-mp25v and the error i get when i click it is unable to mount media there is probably no media in the drive | 05:49 |
| CarlFK | UberDay: yes - you can add a drive, resize a partition or make a swap file | 05:50 |
| deque | UberDay: Create a larger swap partition either when installing, or slice off a bit of your root using gparted and expand your existing swap into it | 05:50 |
| bazhang | kaboombob: via which media manager? amarok etc | 05:50 |
| tsukasa | hey guys if i do something like display=":0" vlc it should work yes? because it errors unable to initialize gtk, set display properly | 05:50 |
| CarlFK | UberDay: oh yeah, and you can use a thumb drive, but I hear that isn't a good idea | 05:50 |
| morhelp | what program to convert the audio cd to mp3? | 05:50 |
| kaboombob | bazhang i use amarok the most but it doesnt even see it im going into computer and clicking digital audio player then i get that error | 05:51 |
| jbellis | can anyone recommend a sata card (sata1 is fine) that can handle at least 2 disks without falling over? the one I have now craps out with "scsi" errors up to my eyeballs as soon as I boot with a 2nd disk on it | 05:51 |
| UberDay | okay im a noob carl and deque so i got no clue what your talking about. createing a swap file? i got no clue how to do that | 05:51 |
| bazhang | kaboombob: just a moment.. | 05:51 |
| kaboombob | bazhang k thnx | 05:52 |
| SinNoAria | does anyone know where would be a good place to get the "bcm43xx-fwcutter" driver? It seems that I need it to get my computer online while using Ubuntu. And I'm terribly sorry about asking a noobish question. | 05:52 |
| mewshi | The DisplaySize thing didn't work O-o | 05:52 |
| SinNoAria | I mean, can I get it on the ubuntu website | 05:52 |
| bullgard4 | Does the 'ls' command print files with an '.gz' extension only as if they were uncompressed? | 05:53 |
| mewshi | Alright | 05:53 |
| kaboombob | sinnoaria if its a restricted driver go into the system menu>administration>restricted drivers | 05:53 |
| mewshi | five bucks, in cash, to anyone who can figure this out | 05:53 |
| ocha | Please help. I can't get VirtualBox to do anything anymore. ;( i am having problems with VirtualBox after installing VirtualBox OSE and now I can't get VirtualBox to boot up now. >.< http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4151434#post4151434 | 05:53 |
| SinNoAria | it didn't say anything when I went to restricted drivers | 05:54 |
| SinNoAria | I can't even get online anyhow while using Ubuntu so I need to get the driver while on Windows | 05:54 |
| randomwalker | how do i find out what graphics card i have? | 05:54 |
| mewshi | ok, seriously. I will mail 5 bucks in cash to whoever can figure out the solution to my dilemma | 05:54 |
| pyrak | can anyone offer tips on using a treo 650 with ubuntu? (apps, etc) | 05:54 |
| randomwalker | i know it's an integrated/onboard thing but i can't find it in the hardware preferences | 05:55 |
| unop | bullgard4, ls prints out files as they are | 05:55 |
| randomwalker | is there a command to find it? | 05:55 |
| marx2k | is there something special I need to do to get SSH to accept connections from IP's outside of the LAN? | 05:56 |
| deque | I have an nfs kernel space server that has suddenly stopped starting correctly. It says it starts, but fails to actually listen on 2049 (according to netstat), but is listening on 2049 according to rpcinfo. Any thoughts? | 05:56 |
| th0r | marx2k open the port that you have ssh listening on | 05:57 |
| nickrud | randomwalker: lspci | grep -i vga | 05:57 |
| SinNoAria | kaboombob: When I tried that, all that I got was that there were no restricted drivers. (I'm not quoting exactly since I'm on the Windows partition) | 05:58 |
| FederaL | opa | 05:58 |
| FederaL | hey guys | 05:58 |
| marx2k | th0r: its open and accepting connections from the internal IP, but when I try to connect to the box using my external IP (Im forwarding the port on the router) its refusing connections | 05:58 |
| mewshi | Come on, you guys don't want five dollars? | 05:58 |
| Flannel | marx2k: you'll have to consult your xampp documentation. xampp isn't included in Ubuntu (we just do it the easy way, through package management) and they can configure it arbitrarily. | 05:58 |
| marx2k | yeah I might have to remove xampp and just install normal lampp server | 05:59 |
| SinNoAria | mewshi: I think it is more like a can't help than a won't help | 05:59 |
| randomwalker | nickrud, thanks! | 05:59 |
| kaboombob | bazhang: http://www.electronics-expo.com/make-a-store/item/PANSVMP25V/Panasonic/SVMP25V/42.html has the specs for it if you want to read that | 05:59 |
| th0r | marx2k there are two possibilities...first, you may run into trouble going out and then back in on the same ip. I do it here all the time, but sometimes the isp doesn't allow it. The second possibility is that the isp has port 22 blocked...in which case moving ssh to another port may help. | 06:00 |
| mewshi | Oh come on, there's a way, there must me | 06:00 |
| kaboombob | sinnoaria i dont know then im still a newb tho maybe someone else can help you | 06:00 |
| SinNoAria | kaboombob: thanks for your your time one way or another | 06:01 |
| bazhang | kaboombob: just read that--trying to see if it can mounted as a usb storage device to let you transfer files directly to it--currently asking some gurus--just a moment sorry | 06:01 |
| kaboombob | bazhang thnx | 06:01 |

| Gekkomon_Shogun | How do i get adobe flash player to install | 06:03 |
| bod_ | use wine | 06:03 |
| unop | !flash | 06:03 |
| 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 | 06:03 |
| 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. | 06:03 |
| bod_ | Gekkomon_Shogun: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine?highlight=%28wine%29 | 06:04 |
| KurtKraut | oldude67, yes... but you'd need to copy the partition content, not the partition itself. So you'd need to create a new partition in the other hardrive and past the files from one to another. | 06:04 |
| bazhang | kaboombob: what is your dmesg output when inserting the drive? paste it in pastebin (not here in the channel) !paste will give you the link where to do so | 06:04 |
| oldude67 | KurtKraut, well i will hold off on that till i can keep my internet from going down as its my router box | 06:04 |
| KurtKraut | oldude67, maybe there is a shortcut to do it... but I can't remind. I've never attempted to do something similr to it. | 06:05 |
| kaboombob | !paste | 06:05 |
| ubotu | pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic) | 06:05 |

| th0r | kaboombob plug it in and type 'fdisk -l' in a terminal | 06:26 |
| pyrak | what icalendar app should i use? | 06:26 |
| unop | kaboombob, anything you want it to be .. usually they are FATXX by convention | 06:26 |
| Fernando1 | nickrud: do you know why my wireless networking makes my computer crash? | 06:26 |
| carb | pkundu: You are not likely to get much help with something that can be so easily googled | 06:26 |
| carb | http://www.pendrivelinux.com/2007/01/25/usb-x-ubuntu-610/ | 06:26 |
| badkitty | GothicProphet: Just make sure you partition the space before you install to make it easy on yourself | 06:26 |
| GothicProphet | Ahh, ok cool. Thanks KurtKraut. One other question... Is there a way to fix the screen resolution during the Live install of Ubuntu? It's set to 800x600 and I can't see buttons to click! | 06:26 |
| carb | check that out | 06:26 |
| nickrud | Fernando1: not a clue. If possible, I know less about wireless than I do sound | 06:26 |
| skagen | what does "object has no attribute" in CCSM running in terminal? | 06:26 |
| rzin | quit | 06:26 |
| Fernando1 | nickrud: if i plug it in it's fine, and when I search for available networks it shows a list and my network's there too, but when I try to connect it starts to connect, then it DOES connect then it freezes | 06:27 |
| Fernando1 | nickrud: alright ty anyway | 06:27 |
| GothicProphet | badkitty: the install has the option to do that right? Or do I need to use a separate utility? | 06:27 |
| unop | th0r, I wouldnt trust fdisk on what it reports .. i've partitioned a USB key and set the partition type to NTFS and still managed to format the parition as FAT32 .. now fdisk reports it as NTFS but it's still FAT32 | 06:27 |
| marx2k | grr | 06:27 |
| GothicProphet | Been a while since I've had to set up ubuntu at all... haven't done a dual boot yet. | 06:27 |
| badkitty | GothicProphet: Well.. do you have your Vista installed already? | 06:27 |
| kaboombob | th0r http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/52233/ | 06:27 |
| GothicProphet | Yes, Vista was jus freshly reinstalled. | 06:28 |

| decay | can the installation of ubuntu fry a laptop? | 06:28 |

| th0r | unop ok... | 06:28 |
| badkitty | GothicProphet: well I mean unused and unpartitioned space | 06:29 |
| bod_ | KurtKraut: i have all the stuff,.,. but checking the flash site, i see that my version isnt the latest one for linux ,.,. how would i go about installing the latest one? | 06:29 |
| unop | kaboombob, that looks like a corrupt disk to me | 06:29 |
| kaboombob | gothicprophet it is vista tho jk | 06:29 |
| badkitty | lol kaboombob | 06:29 |
| GothicProphet | kaboombob: True... lol... | 06:29 |
| kaboombob | unop it works still tho, its my mp3 player and it works fine under xp | 06:29 |
| GothicProphet | badkitty: It should, like I said, Vista was just fresh installed (reformat prior to reinstall) | 06:29 |
| bod_ | KurtKraut: ?? | 06:30 |
| unop | kaboombob, yea, windows is notorious for skimming over errors and not paying enough attention -- have you tried mounting the disk like this -- sudo mount -t vfat /dev/sdb1 /mnt/sdb1 | 06:30 |
| unop | ? | 06:30 |
| kaboombob | unop mount point does not exist | 06:31 |
| bod_ | checking the flash site, i see that my version isnt the latest one for linux ,.,. how would i go about installing the latest one? anyone?? | 06:31 |
| yudigadget | does anyone know what is this mean: (i read on ubuntu forum but i don't understand) | 06:31 |
| yudigadget | people with foomatic drivers.. make sure | 06:31 |
| yudigadget | #emerge foomatic | 06:31 |
| yudigadget | after installing cups... | 06:31 |
| yudigadget | what is #emerge foomatic ?? | 06:31 |
| unop | kaboombob, ok -- make it then -- sudo mkdir /mnt/sdb1 | 06:32 |
| nickrud | !brokenflash | bod (the blue text in the link or from adobe) | 06:32 |
| ubotu | bod (the blue text in the link or from adobe): 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. | 06:32 |
| bod_ | ok | 06:32 |
| badkitty | GothicProphet: Ok well then yes, you just throw in the LIVECD, boot it up (making sure your CDROM is first to boot) then click install and make sure you guide it through (so it doesn't erase your vista partition) | 06:32 |
| bod_ | cheers | 06:32 |
| kaboombob | unop operation not permitted | 06:33 |
| unop | kaboombob, on which command tho? | 06:33 |
| GothicProphet | badkitty: thanks... I messed that up last time I tried a dual boot (an xp machine) so it's now a pure ubuntu comp. LOL | 06:33 |
| kaboombob | unop mkdir: cannot create directory `/mnt/sdb1': Operation not permitted | 06:33 |
| unop | kaboombob, are you sure you used sudo with mkdir there | 06:34 |
| unop | kaboombob, sudo mkdir /mnt/sdb1 | 06:34 |
| kaboombob | i copied exactly what you typed so yes | 06:35 |
| badkitty | kaboombob: correct me if I am wrong but, do you want to mount it there or in media? | 06:35 |
| kaboombob | badkitty anywhere as long as i can get it to mount | 06:35 |
| badkitty | kaboombob: what is it now? usb? cdrom? | 06:35 |
| kaboombob | usb | 06:35 |
| badkitty | it shows up in /dev | 06:36 |

| carlos | hello? | 06:37 |
| jay-oh-en | Rubin: | 06:37 |
| kaboombob | how do i check unop? | 06:37 |
| badkitty | kaboombob: That I wouldn't know for sure | 06:37 |
| unop | kaboombob, you can try this -- sudo sh -c "mkdir /mnt/sdb1; mount -t vfat /dev/sdb1 /mnt/sdb1" | 06:38 |
| unop | kaboombob, you've already checked -- you pasted it here - http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/52233/ | 06:38 |
| jay-oh-en | is kubuntu faster then ubuntu? and what gobuntu or xubuntu what one should i get out of those if i have these specs | 06:39 |
| kaboombob | unop that didnt work mkdir again | 06:39 |
| unop | kaboombob, ok, try this then - sudo sh -c "mkdir /media/sdb1; mount -t vfat /dev/sdb1 /media/sdb1" | 06:39 |

| stevenu | can anyone tell me how to stop open arean from exiting fullscreen ? keeps randomly happening | 06:40 |
| MasterShrek | unop, why not just give it to him in two seperate commands, instead of confusing him? | 06:40 |
| kaboombob | OMFG IT WORKED THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU | 06:41 |
| MasterShrek | lol | 06:41 |
| unop | pkundu, i should think not -- an ISO is meant to be burnt to CDs and CD have different boot loaders to harddrives and removable media .. but i could be wrong and there's no harm in trying | 06:41 |
| MasterShrek | kaboombob, do you know what just happened? | 06:41 |
| kaboombob | no idea whatsoever | 06:41 |
| MasterShrek | its one thing to do it, its another to understand what you did | 06:41 |
| badkitty | haha | 06:41 |
| kaboombob | its happy now tho | 06:41 |
| unop | MasterShrek, that is _ONE_ command | 06:41 |
| kaboombob | im happy | 06:41 |
| MasterShrek | unop, im aware of that, but he has no idea what he just did | 06:42 |
| MasterShrek | now hell have to come back here when he wants to mount something else | 06:42 |
| MasterShrek | instead of explaining it once and having him know how to do it | 06:42 |
| kaboombob | mastershrek whould you mind telling me what i just did? | 06:42 |
| pkundu | I just need a solution where in i can transfer a image to pendrive and boot from it to install from that to my laptop hdd | 06:42 |
| Andrew250 | Hello all. I have just installed Gutsy and it keeps freezing. I'm new to Linux. Can someone help me? | 06:43 |
| badkitty | Teach a man how to fish instead of give him a fish.. | 06:43 |
| pkundu | unop u may be right | 06:43 |
| Flannel | pkundu: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation has instructins on all sorts of installation solutions | 06:43 |
| misslecommander | i get a freeze on Gutsy once in a while, most of the time its when i hit Enter key, instead of clicking OK buttons | 06:43 |
| pkundu | thnx Flannel | 06:44 |
| MasterShrek | kaboombob, well, forget about he sudo sh -c for now, and pay attention to the stuff inside the quote, they are two commands seperated by a semicolon. the first one make a mount point, that is a place where you will mount your hard drive, or flash driver or whatever it is. the second one is the actual mount command, if you type mount --help it will show you how to use the command | 06:44 |
| GothicProphet | Oh goody... I'm gonna be installing w/o a mouse... LOL | 06:44 |
| misslecommander | i still need to update the vidcard somehow | 06:44 |
| unop | pkundu, the easiest way might be to use syslinux and a drop-in kernel image .. check out the DSL website, it's got a few good howtos | 06:44 |
| Andrew250 | I can't even do the updates | 06:44 |
| Andrew250 | It boot and then freezes in under 3 mins | 06:44 |
| misslecommander | biggest issue on getting anything to work was getting on the internet with it first, alot of other problems go away after you do that | 06:44 |
| misslecommander | andrew you on the linix box now ? | 06:45 |
| Andrew250 | Internet is connected right from the install | 06:45 |
| badkitty | GothicProphet: LOL | 06:45 |
| Andrew250 | no | 06:45 |
| GothicProphet | It disappeared on me... | 06:45 |
| badkitty | GothicProphet: goody goody gumdrops! | 06:45 |
| GothicProphet | So now I can't get past the "select time zone" | 06:45 |
| GothicProphet | LOL | 06:45 |
| misslecommander | i am noob, so just voicing what i had to do. i have freeze issues as well. sometimes i can force close app, but other times i cant | 06:45 |
| kaboombob | mastershrek i kind of got that much of it and i did know it was 2 commands how do i know which one is my next thing to mount tho cause it wont be /dev/sdb if im not mistaken | 06:45 |
| badkitty | GothicProphet: HAHA.. you sure tab doesn't work | 06:46 |
| MasterShrek | kaboombob, the sudo part is so that you have administrator privlidges to make that directory and to mount the drive (sudo is a very big thing in linux because it provides a good layer of security for your system) the sh basically tells the command line that it will be receiving a shell script (sh stands for shell i believe) and the stuff in the quotes is the actual command, with the semicolon and the quotes it appears as one c | 06:46 |
| MasterShrek | ommand in a sense | 06:46 |
| misslecommander | what a pain it was to get wireless hooked in, it was like slow death, bad | 06:46 |
| pkundu | Flannel, gave me wat i am looking for thnx man | 06:46 |
| GothicProphet | Quite... Tried it... it was sitting there on the New York option after every attempt... | 06:46 |
| kaboombob | mastershrek k i knew that to | 06:46 |
| MasterShrek | kaboombob, well that all depends on your setup | 06:46 |
| jay-oh-en | what os by ubuntu should i get if i have these system specs | 06:46 |
| jay-oh-en | Sysinfo for 'ubuntu': Linux 2.6.22-14-generic running KDE 3.5.8, CPU: AMDAthlon643000+ at 1000 MHz (2102 bogomips), , RAM: 998/1011MB, 124 proc's, 3.3h up | 06:46 |
| MasterShrek | sdb2 maybe, or possibly sdc1 | 06:47 |
| nickrud | jay-oh-en: you can run any of the ubuntus. | 06:47 |
| kaboombob | mastershrek i dont know the syntax to well yet but im getting there slowly so just look for a change next time is the only way to know what the mount point is | 06:47 |
| jay-oh-en | nickrud: what will be the best looking or fastest | 06:47 |
| kaboombob | mastershrek also how can i tell what the filesystm type is? | 06:48 |
| misslecommander | yes, the sytax is somewhat like learning dos all over again, or atleast it reminds me of that | 06:48 |
| jay-oh-en | nickrud: im on ubuntu live cd but i have a bunch of cds so i can install xubuntu | 06:48 |
| MasterShrek | kaboombob, if you were to type: sudo fdisk -l in a command line it should tell you what u need to know | 06:48 |
| jay-oh-en | nickrud: or whatever os | 06:48 |
| nickrud | jay-oh-en: xubuntu would run the fastest, and looks is a matter of taste. I think kde and xfce are tasteless myself :) | 06:48 |
| MasterShrek | kaboombob, it lists all the partitions that are present as well as their filesystems | 06:48 |
| kaboombob | mastershrek cool i kind of knew that one to | 06:48 |
| jay-oh-en | nickrud: want to see my current setup of kde and say its tasteless? | 06:48 |
| unop | kaboombob, usually you dont have to mess with mount on the command line, your device should automatically mount | 06:49 |
| nickrud | jay-oh-en: I'm sure it's gaudy, I like a nice bland desktop, nothing to get in the way of work | 06:49 |
| Trebel | nickrud: i'm with you on that one | 06:49 |
| MasterShrek | kaboombob, then all you have to do is make a new mount point for it, and then mount it. most of the time you wont even need the -t in the mound command. but i never put the two commands together myself...its always sudo mkdir /mount/point then sudo mount /dev/sdc2 /mount/point | 06:49 |
| kaboombob | unop i know but both of my usb things i have connected have had some major issues | 06:49 |
| jay-oh-en | nickrud: http://i154.photobucket.com/albums/s272/pronege/mydekstop2.png | 06:49 |
| unop | kaboombob, in this case, it probably failed to mount because of the invalid parition table on the device which is why we had to resort to the command line | 06:50 |
| MasterShrek | unop, if it had an invalid partion table it would mount anyway afaik | 06:50 |
| nickrud | jay-oh-en: oh, my eyes!!! all the K' and gears , the horror ... | 06:50 |
| jay-oh-en | nickrud: but im tired of it looking so pretty im ready for functionallity cause that doesnt have any of it i have alot of problems | 06:51 |
| mypapit | woof | 06:51 |
| jay-oh-en | nickrud: stop playing around haha | 06:51 |
| jay-oh-en | MasterShrek: what you think of my desktop since your a kde user | 06:51 |
| unop | MasterShrek, well, it seems hald didnt auto-mount it .. but mount did mount it | 06:51 |
| MasterShrek | kaboombob, would yo happen to know if your user is a member of the plugdev group? i dont know if u need to be in ubuntu (as i dont really use it much) but in slack you do | 06:51 |
| nickrud | jay-oh-en: you can pimp gnome and xfce also. | 06:51 |
| MasterShrek | jay-oh-en, how u konw i was a kde user? lol | 06:51 |
| kaboombob | yeah thats what you were saying and i saw that in there thank you for the help i can now listen to something other than sandstorm again | 06:51 |
| MasterShrek | KDE FTW! lolz | 06:51 |
| MasterShrek | pretty sweet lookin jay-oh-en | 06:52 |
| jay-oh-en | MasterShrek: cause i can see through your screen | 06:52 |

| MasterShrek | kaboombob, using gnome i assume? | 06:52 |
| jay-oh-en | MasterShrek: jk i talked to you a long time ago but i dont want to say my name | 06:52 |
| kaboombob | unop yeah thats what you were saying and i saw that in there thank you for the help i can now listen to something other than sandstorm again | 06:52 |
| kaboombob | mastershrek yes i am | 06:52 |
| MasterShrek | jay-oh-en, why not? | 06:52 |
| unop | kaboombob, yw | 06:53 |
| MasterShrek | kaboombob, ok, system > admin > users (i think lol i dont use gnome either) | 06:53 |
| jay-oh-en | MasterShrek: cause it was banned way back when | 06:53 |
| jay-oh-en | MasterShrek: and im ready not to get banned anymore and i dont want to bring up any skelitons in my colset | 06:53 |

| Andrew250 | no | 06:55 |
| Andrew250 | Hello all. I have just installed Gutsy and it keeps freezing. I'm new to Linux. Can someone help me? | 06:55 |
| bod_ | hey ,.,. can anyone recommned any cool programs for ubuntu?? | 06:55 |
| kaboombob | mastershrek powerdev and netdev but no plugdev | 06:55 |
| MasterShrek | Andrew250, fresh install? | 06:55 |
| Andrew250 | it is | 06:56 |
| jay-oh-en | MasterShrek: i have kde installed i just cant get my printer to work i have a mp730 and | 06:56 |
| MasterShrek | kaboombob, hmm is there a hald group maybe? | 06:56 |
| jay-oh-en | remove and | 06:56 |
| albatross | _bod: try build essential then you can make your own | 06:56 |
| nickrud | jay-oh-en: I wouldn't be the right person to ask, I've been running gnome since I started. Sampled many, but never stuck with them long enough to become familiar | 06:56 |
| MasterShrek | jay-oh-en, i dont know much about printers, u install cups? | 06:56 |
| nemanja_ | kde is very bad! | 06:56 |
| Andrew250 | MasterShrek: I've done it like 7 times in the last 2 days | 06:56 |
| GothicProphet | I like my gnome | 06:56 |
| GothicProphet | heh | 06:56 |
| MasterShrek | nemanja_, lies! but this isnt the channel for that discussion | 06:56 |
| jay-oh-en | MasterShrek: yes i installed everything | 06:56 |
| GothicProphet | It's a shame that comp is in pieces right now. | 06:56 |
| bod_ | albtross: wot build my own programs?? i have to go to school in an hour! | 06:56 |
| kaboombob | mastershrek haldaemon | 06:56 |
| jay-oh-en | MasterShrek: but the driver they recomend for my printer prints really small | 06:57 |
| albatross | bod_ an hour? that's a long ass time you can do a lot of programming | 06:57 |
| nemanja_ | ubuntu - gnome | 06:57 |
| MasterShrek | kaboombob, try adding your user to that group, logging out and back in and then plug ur flash drive in | 06:57 |
| albatross | i mean, most of it will be spent finding it doesnt compile but it's fun | 06:57 |
| bod_ | albatross: not when ur not a programmer,.,. all i can do is write script to start amarok on log-in | 06:57 |
| nemanja_ | Ima li srba ovde?? | 06:57 |
| kaboombob | mastershrek ok why am i doing that tho? | 06:57 |
| albatross | bod_: seriously though i'd suggest wireshark i find snooping my house network fascinating | 06:58 |
| jay-oh-en | who here has tested all of the ubuntus xfce kde gdk just tell me what was the best | 06:58 |
| GothicProphet | Wireshark is fun. | 06:58 |
| bod_ | albatross: wot does it do? | 06:58 |
| GothicProphet | bod_: it's a packet sniffer. | 06:58 |
| albatross | its designed for network analysis, it caputures packets, basically you can see who's looking at what over a network | 06:58 |
| jay-oh-en | not just best as in best i mean in all around there can be a little problems i can fix themm but what was the fastest and had the lease problems with hardware | 06:58 |
| MasterShrek | kaboombob, i have a feeling your user does not have hald (which is your hardware abstraction layer daemon, hence hald) permissions. thats what my problem in slackware was and after i added my user to the plugdev group, automounting worked | 06:58 |
| bod_ | albatross: im the only linux machine in the house | 06:58 |
| jay-oh-en | MasterShrek: can you make slackware look nice? do you still run it? | 06:59 |
| GothicProphet | bod_: Is yours the only system in the house at all? | 06:59 |
| albatross | bod_: it works on a more fundamental level than that, you basically pick up all traffic (if you're on a wireless of hub based network) and you can sift through it | 06:59 |
| MasterShrek | jay-oh-en, kde 3.5.8 | 06:59 |
| bod_ | GothicProphet: no | 06:59 |
| bod_ | albatross: cool!!!! | 06:59 |
| albatross | if the general discussion is about window managers, which it seems to be: i'd suggest ion | 07:00 |
| badkitty | jay-oh-en: Doesn't backtrack run off of slackware ... I thought it looked alright | 07:00 |
| GothicProphet | bod_: Then you can see all the packets, like albatross said, from a wireless network and sort through'em. | 07:00 |
| extracted | Ettercap allows for sniffing of packets across switched networks ! | 07:00 |
| albatross | yeah arp spoofing isnt so hard | 07:00 |
| bod_ | GothicProphet: gettin it now ,.,. cool!!!! any others? | 07:00 |
| marx2k | Whats the SSH command to upload files via SSH? | 07:00 |
| === jord is now known as jordoex | ||
| marx2k | cget/cput? | 07:00 |

| badkitty | extracted: What about backtrack2? | 07:01 |
| GothicProphet | There! Finally got my mouse back. | 07:01 |
| GothicProphet | LOL | 07:01 |
| bod_ | albatross: wots that? | 07:01 |
| extracted | I took it to work to just test what could be done with that installation its amazing | 07:01 |
| jay-oh-en | badkitty: yeah i searched on google its ight | 07:01 |
| extracted | badkitty, cant say I know any thing about that. | 07:01 |
| jay-oh-en | i think im going to go with xfce | 07:01 |
| nickrud | jay-oh-en: I got an account just to show you a simple desktop :) http://i266.photobucket.com/albums/ii255/pinute/Screenshot.png | 07:01 |
| jay-oh-en | nickrud: kool thanks for doing that for me | 07:02 |
| badkitty | extracted: Its a Pen testing distro besed on I believe slackware... comes as a live cd :-) | 07:02 |
| extracted | if its like another live cd ver of linux, I know there is one thats based on Fedora thats out as well | 07:02 |
| unop | marx2k, if it's strictly ssh -- cat /path/to/localfile | ssh user@host 'cat -> /path/to/remotefile' | 07:02 |
| jay-oh-en | nickrud: what distro is that | 07:02 |
| unop | marx2k, but you're better off using something like scp | 07:02 |
| bod_ | GothicProphet: shouls i run wireshark or wireshark (as root) | 07:02 |

| MasterShrek | jay-oh-en, nothing matters about the distro, ubuntu can be made to look like fedora or suse or anything | 07:03 |
| jordoex | AAARG! why does it say everywhere that your network name should be wlan0 for ndiswrapper when ubuntu sets it up fine to use eth1? | 07:03 |

| bod_ | nickrud: no thanks i dont do graphics ,.,.lol,.,. | 07:14 |
| Gekkomon_Shogun | bod_ what exactly do u mean | 07:14 |

| jay-oh-en | bod_: i forget the program but if you want we could make a website together since your bored | 07:14 |
| kaboombob | mastershrek any ideas? | 07:14 |
| bod_ | Gekkomon_Shogun: do u mean about the backgrounds? | 07:14 |
| sexcopter | n2diy. nickrud: seems to have worked, thanks! | 07:14 |
| nickrud | bod_: this is different, it's awsome and you don't have to know how to draw, just how to make shapes | 07:14 |
| jay-oh-en | bod_: im pretty decent at websites and i could teach htm/CSS | 07:15 |
| sexcopter | not sure what is causing this, but at least i have a workaround | 07:15 |
| jordoex | OshaMaHUe: the restricted driver manager should be easy enough to use when you install | 07:15 |
| n2diy | sexcopter: cool | 07:15 |
| MasterShrek | kaboombob, hmm, have you been unmounting it before you unplug it? | 07:15 |
| Gekkomon_Shogun | bod_ yea i would like to have a different background for each side of the cube | 07:15 |
| bod_ | jay-oh-en: i only have 1 hour,.,. will u be around in 10 hours? | 07:15 |
| kaboombob | when i had it mounted yes | 07:15 |
| jordoex | OshaMaHUe: otherwise, ndisrapper works fine as well for me on my broadcom | 07:15 |
| MasterShrek | jay-oh-en, are you in irc as root? | 07:16 |
| bod_ | Gekkomon_Shogun: go to #compiz-fusion but the desktop background thing is very complicated | 07:16 |
| jordoex | OshaMaHUe: just find a wireless connection | 07:16 |
| jay-oh-en | MasterShrek: what do you recomend im going to install xfce but i have a ubuntu disc made should i download a cd and burn a xubuntu disc or what | 07:16 |
| bod_ | nickrud: ok cheers | 07:16 |
| jordoex | OshaMaHUe: i mean wired | 07:16 |
| jay-oh-en | MasterShrek: yes why | 07:16 |

| rzin | anyone know where to get ubuntu for ppc architecture | 07:16 |

| bod_ | nickrud: looked at = yes ,.,. changed anything = no ,.,. im a linux noobie so i dont wanna break anything lol ,.,. | 07:17 |
| jay-oh-en | MasterShrek: why if not ill brb | 07:17 |
| MasterShrek | jay-oh-en, also, id use a straight xubuntu cd if you have the bandwidth and a spare cd, it will make it a much cleaner install | 07:17 |
| OshaMaHUe | jordoex: i looked there but there were just but there is just chipset and driver of the video card | 07:17 |
| bod_ | jay-oh-en: i have aMSN | 07:17 |
| jay-oh-en | MasterShrek: thats what im gonig to do then | 07:17 |
| jay-oh-en | bod_: save this email "pronege@hotmail.com" | 07:17 |
| jay-oh-en | bod_: add that tomorrow and well start on a website | 07:17 |
| MasterShrek | bod_, the worst thing youll screw up is your user's gnome settings, in which case youll just have to delete all the .gnome* folders in your user's home directory (as far as i know) but it wont affect any other users ont he machine | 07:18 |
| kaboombob | mastershrek when i had it mounted finally yes | 07:18 |
| MasterShrek | bod_, when using the gconf-editor | 07:18 |
| bod_ | jay-oh-en: cheers dude,.,. il def find u ,.,. cheers | 07:18 |
| jordoex | OshaMaHUe: then try ndiswrapper, it uses the windows driver, search on the ubuntu wiki | 07:18 |
| nickrud | bod_: you can't break anything there, and you can get back the defaults for any tree with: gconftool --recursive-unset /path . For example, gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel will return your panels to default | 07:18 |
| bod_ | MasterShrek: im the only user | 07:18 |
| MasterShrek | kaboombob, mount it and type: df in a command line and see what it says for free space and stuff | 07:18 |
| bod_ | nickrud: ok but wot can i do with it? | 07:19 |
| Gekkomon_Shogun | bod_ theirs no one their | 07:19 |
| MasterShrek | bod_, you could add another user, or delte that one and re-create it, is what i mean, it wont break your entire system, just that user | 07:19 |
| OshaMaHUe | jordoex: ok thanks | 07:19 |
| nickrud | bod_: looking thru there will teach more about gnome than just about anything less than reading the code | 07:19 |
| bod_ | Gekkomon_Shogun: try again at different times m8 | 07:19 |
| MasterShrek | bod_, if you were to screw something up | 07:19 |
| godaddy | while attempting to install perl-base using aptitude, I get an error: perl: warning: Setting locale failed. | 07:19 |

| bod_ | skagen: u can ,.,. do u mean extra desktops? | 07:26 |
| jay-oh-en | MasterShrek: then just forget about it | 07:26 |
| crdlb | skagen: because compiz uses a different kind of workspace, and gnome doesn't perfectly support it yet | 07:26 |
| jay-oh-en | MasterShrek: tomorrow then? | 07:26 |
| MasterShrek | im thinkin about getting a glass of water and crashing, i got class in 6 1/2 hrs and i didnt get much sleep last night | 07:27 |
| crdlb | skagen: you can change the number of compiz viewports in ccsm | 07:27 |
| skagen | yup installed compiz | 07:27 |
| skagen | viewports? | 07:27 |
| MasterShrek | jay-oh-en, yea, ill be online almost all day, two classes, but lots of time in between | 07:27 |
| skagen | let me check | 07:27 |
| parthan | skagen, right click on the desktop workspaces, go to preferences, you can add there.. increase num of columns.. | 07:27 |
| jay-oh-en | k | 07:27 |

| KalEl | hi, i've installed ubuntu, to install kde 4 do i just sudo apt-get install kde? | 07:28 |
| SomeoneElse2232 | Maybe Debian will help my linux needs | 07:28 |
| jay-oh-en | KalEl: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop | 07:29 |
| badkitty | SomeoneElse2232: perhaps | 07:29 |
| skagen | alright! that worked | 07:29 |
| jay-oh-en | KalEl: sudo apt-get install kde-core | 07:29 |
| skagen | thanks man! | 07:29 |
| jay-oh-en | not the other one KalEl | 07:29 |
| MasterShrek | KalEl, for kde4 i think its different | 07:29 |
| kaboombob | mastershrek i have umounted it and mounted it again and that changed nothing | 07:29 |
| SomeoneElse2232 | I hope it does since Ubuntu is not working for me | 07:29 |

| KalEl | thanks | 07:29 |
| Mongoose | how do i get java 6 compiler? | 07:30 |
| jay-oh-en | thats all what getts people to switch is the damn cube | 07:30 |
| bod_ | jay-oh-en: lol,.,. yer ,.,. thats y i got it ,.,.lol,.,. | 07:30 |
| jay-oh-en | Mongoose: why not install from repos | 07:30 |
| KalEl | well it impressed my friends definitely... (the cube) | 07:30 |
| bod_ | lol | 07:30 |
| Mongoose | what's it listed under? javac isnt returning anythign useful | 07:30 |
| kaboombob | jay-oh-en then they stop using the cube cause it eats ram like pacman eats the ghosts | 07:30 |
| Madpilot | SomeoneElse2232, have you looked up issues w/ Parallels installs? | 07:30 |
| jay-oh-en | bod_: me too but i realized its not handy and makes work slower | 07:30 |
| MasterShrek | kaboombob, i wouldnt think it would. try opening a terminal, then cd /mnt/sdb1 (or whatever it was) and do: ls -a and see if something else shows up on the flash drive ( ls -a will list all the files, inclu=ding hidden ones) | 07:30 |
| KalEl | they were very surprised to see the next version of vista. | 07:30 |

| GothicProphet | bod_: I have AIM, Y!, and ICQ too if need be... but most of the people I talk to are on MSN... LOL | 07:49 |
| ivanteran | hi there, byt "profesional" i mean a feel of being using an integrated gui where the apps cooperate without any hassles like the clasic copy-paste issue | 07:49 |
| bod_ | i no ,.,. its so annoying ,.,. im still at school so all my m8's r still microsoft bastards cause they know no different,.,. i think they should teach linux systems in school | 07:49 |
| jay-oh-en | ivanteran: i hate the copy paste issue | 07:50 |
| jay-oh-en | !copy | 07:50 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about copy - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 07:50 |
| jay-oh-en | !paste | 07:50 |
| ubotu | pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic) | 07:50 |
| GothicProphet | bod_: I'm actually taking a class right now, Architecture and Operating Systems... it's covering XP and Linux. heh. | 07:50 |
| bod_ | jay-oh-en: wot copy-paste issue? | 07:50 |
| bod_ | GothicProphet: coolio | 07:50 |
| jay-oh-en | bod_: you copy but it doesnt really copy it | 07:51 |
| bod_ | jay-oh-en: im confused ????? | 07:51 |
| Flannel | jay-oh-en: it does, it just copies to a different buffer | 07:51 |
| GothicProphet | jay-oh-en & ivanteran: I've run into that. | 07:51 |
| bod_ | Nope,.,. mine copies nicely | 07:51 |
| jay-oh-en | GothicProphet: is there a fix? | 07:51 |
| bod_ | jay-oh-e: yer ,.,.,.,. type it | 07:52 |
| GothicProphet | jay-oh-en: No idea... my ubu-box is down at the moment so I haven't had a chance to mess with it. | 07:52 |
| GothicProphet | jay-oh-en: And since it's down, I haven't bothered to look on the forums. | 07:52 |
| GothicProphet | heh | 07:52 |
| ivanteran | well, I guess the main reason for that feeling I have about the linux desktop is that the mainstream big companies do not port their apps like on mac os x | 07:52 |
| GothicProphet | ivanteran: They don't see much reason to. Comparatively, linux users account for a very small percentage of total systems out there. | 07:53 |
| umair007 | hello people can i plz ask a question | 07:53 |
| GothicProphet | ivanteran: We get more people using Linux, and more companies will start producing apps for it. | 07:53 |
| Flannel | !ask | umair007 | 07:53 |
| ubotu | umair007: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question -- All On One Line, so others can read it and follow it easily --. and if anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-) | 07:53 |
| GothicProphet | umair007: go ahead. | 07:53 |
| rredd4 | !question | 07:53 |
| umair007 | ok man i am using a pc with vista but i tend to get bored and want to install ubuntu which i have had for long but had to switch for some reasons | 07:54 |
| bod_ | umair007: so wots the problem? | 07:54 |
| ivanteran | well, that opinion is half right, mac users represent a low share too and they have the main apps running there, so what's the deal????? | 07:54 |
| umair007 | i was wondering if ill be able to run the compiz on ubuntu with my s3 chipset which allows aero | 07:54 |
| Boglizk | Is there a GUI ftp client preinstalled with Ubuntu? If not, can someone recommend one? | 07:54 |
| Flannel | ivanteran, GothicProphet, if you wouldn't mind taking this discussion to #ubuntu-offtopic, it'd be appreciated. Thanks | 07:55 |
| bod_ | umair007: i guess so ,.,. if its 3d hardware accelerator it will work | 07:55 |
| Flannel | Boglizk: places > connect to server | 07:55 |
| umair007 | but vista Aero did work on it its s3 chrome 9 IGP | 07:55 |
| bod_ | umair007: is ur graphics card a 3d hardware accelerator card? | 07:55 |
| Boglizk | Flannel: Thanks.. but they should really put that under apps > Internet. | 07:56 |
| umair007 | another thing is that i dont think there are any propreitory drivers released for it | 07:56 |
| badkitty | I say if people want compiz, they should get nvidia | 07:56 |
| umair007 | its a chipset not a graphic card and its dx 9 supporting | 07:56 |
| Flannel | Boglizk: Its not an application, its a built-in feature | 07:56 |
| phenom | Compiz runs fine for me under dells stock whatever it is. | 07:56 |
| phenom | :) | 07:56 |
| jordoex | intel | 07:56 |
| fotoflo | after updateing /etc/group do i have to do anything to refresh privs? | 07:56 |
| bod_ | umair007: ok,.,. YES! | 07:56 |
| umair007 | but man if it wont work for me that will be a heartbreaking thingy | 07:57 |
| elius | hello, i want to run windows xp on my ubuntu, what virtualization software should i use? | 07:57 |
| umair007 | i want compiz and i also heard it aint that resource hunting brat | 07:57 |
| bod_ | umair007: compiz should run fine ,.,. the heartbreak could be fixed with £40 on a graphics card | 07:57 |
| badkitty | elius: Use virtualbox | 07:58 |
| phenom | elius, VMWare server? | 07:58 |
| parthan | !vmware | 07:58 |
| umair007 | man ok thats something u telling a person sitting somewhere else :P it costs a lot here | 07:58 |
| ubotu | VMWare Player is in Ubuntu's !Multiverse repository (package "vmware-player", not available for Gutsy, only Feisty and Edgy), and http://www.easyvmx.com/easyvmx.shtml can create VMs for it. Instructions can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware - See also !virtualizers | 07:58 |
| parthan | elius, ^^ | 07:58 |

| phenom | Any one else have a prob with known log bots? | 08:00 |
| Flannel | jay-oh-en: you'll have the same programs available to you in the repositories, regardless of which WM you pick. As for 64 bit, you'll have all the things in main and universe (at least) | 08:00 |

| jsemmanuel | system>preferences>sessions works for me | 08:20 |
| parthan | !gparted | 08:20 |
| 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/ | 08:20 |
| sahl | which one better, q or g? | 08:21 |

| gobbles414 | djeday: I recommend installing the GTK interface for recordmydesktop as well | 08:27 |
| kr00l | sahl, did you download the Ubuntu image and burn it to a cd? | 08:27 |

| kr00l | sahl, what kind of pc do you have? | 08:31 |

| vzduch | yudigadget: are you in the wrong channel? this is not #gentoo.. | 08:32 |
| kr00l | sahl, no it's not different on each PC. I just need to know because for the cd to work you have to make sure that your PC tries to boot from the cd rom first | 08:32 |
| sahl | kr00l, so what command or menu I've to write/click??? | 08:32 |
| sahl | kr00l, ...from live-cd??? | 08:32 |
| Polysics | hi ppl | 08:32 |
| kr00l | sahl, correct | 08:32 |
| Polysics | frivolous question: are there any poker sites you can play on while on linux? | 08:33 |
| yudigadget | vzduch i'm sorry i don't know about emerge foomatic, i don't know whether ubuntu or gentoo | 08:33 |
| kr00l | sahl, see the cd works only if your computer boots the cd rom drive first and the Hard Drive last | 08:33 |
| yudigadget | what i want to ask is how to fix this cups problem on ubuntu | 08:33 |
| kr00l | sahl: do you have 2 computers? | 08:33 |

| misslecommande1 | u can choose not to use CDROM, and choose internet, but i dont know that will work | 08:42 |
| gvsa123 | Flannel: now this: 16 Jan 22:51:43 ntpdate[9262]: the NTP socket is in use, exiting | 08:42 |

| misslecommande1 | krOOL: you vetran of linux ? | 08:43 |
| Flannel | gvsa123: You'll need to kill the currently running ntpdate (it starts when you boot). ps aux | grep ntpdate | 08:43 |
| fotoflo | Flannel: having trouble doing things from samba | 08:43 |
| kr00l | sahl: for ubuntu to find all the hardware in your computer it has to be connected to the net during the install | 08:43 |
| kr00l | sahl: if you don't do it then everything may not work | 08:44 |
| misslecommande1 | internet connection almost a true need to do anything like that, as far as i can see | 08:44 |
| goatman | can ubuntu play card games | 08:44 |
| sahl | kr00l, is it just to run (gui) q/gparted??? | 08:44 |
| Flannel | fotoflo: samba is a whole other thing. And something I have no idea about. https://help.ubuntu.com/7.10/server/C/windows-networking.html is the best I can do | 08:44 |
| kr00l | !gparted | 08:44 |

| sahl | kr00l, what command/menu??? | 08:45 |
| parthan | sahl, visit the gparted website, you can download the .iso image and burn it to a CD, boot the machine using that CD | 08:46 |
| Flannel | gvsa123: No need otpaste. Anyway, second column (5250) is the PID. sudo kill 5250, then you can run ntpdate | 08:46 |

| parthan | sahl, http://gparted-livecd.tuxfamily.org/ | 08:47 |
| kr00l | sahl: using the live cd you go to the top of the menu > System > Administrator > Partition Editor | 08:47 |
| gvsa123 | Flannel: it says no server suitable for synchronization ffound | 08:48 |
| gvsa123 | Flannel: i just look for another server? | 08:48 |
| misslecommande1 | i think the OS itself , almost certainly needs an internet connection. i messed with it for days, finally getting the net to work, all is much better now | 08:48 |
| Flannel | gvsa123: you used ntp.ubuntu.com? | 08:48 |
| parthan | misslecommande1, what got messed up? | 08:49 |

| gvsa123 | Flannel: but when i issued the kill command, that means that the daemon [?] runs on boot, but why doesn't it sync? because i need the -u option? | 08:57 |
| rocco | but a top shows no command taking upthat cpu | 08:57 |
| rocco | any ideas? | 08:57 |
| rocco | I am running software raid | 08:57 |
| Arthur | How do I check the system hardware info like GHz, RAM, and the like? | 08:57 |
| misslecommande1 | i have raid capable system, but i am not using it | 08:58 |
| Flannel | gvsa123: I really have no idea. They changed since Ive dealt with it (I'm runnign dapper) and on dapper ntpdate is run each boot (I believe ntpd has a one-time option that behaves the same way? I dont know) | 08:58 |
| gvsa123 | Flannel: hey gotta go... but thanks a lot.. been living with this problem for more than a week now... | 08:58 |
| misslecommande1 | System Monitor shows basic information like that | 08:58 |
| gvsa123 | Flannel: i see... but thanks a lot again... | 08:59 |
| robinsjostrom | thanks parthan | 08:59 |
| misslecommande1 | more detailed info in Hardware Information | 08:59 |
| misslecommande1 | oh, thats for Arthur | 08:59 |
| parthan | Arthur, sudo lshw | 09:00 |
| Arthur | Ah, many thanks | 09:00 |
| misslecommande1 | i found it earlier | 09:00 |
| Slart | rocco: so.. you have on average 0.6 processes running... that sounds like something is waking up every now and then...you probably looked when it was sleeping | 09:00 |
| misslecommande1 | Slart i had this happen >> checked processes becaue irc wasnt repondind, and all the apps had "Sleeping" | 09:01 |
| misslecommande1 | whats that all about ? | 09:01 |
| rocco | Slart, well it used to run with a load of 0 0 0 | 09:01 |
| Slart | misslecommande1: nothing was running I guess.. like most computers these days.. waiting for keyboard input | 09:02 |
| rocco | Slart, anyway to watch to see what processes are waking up | 09:02 |
| misslecommande1 | ok, solong as it is normal | 09:02 |
| Slart | rocco: you can always reboot and look at the "total time" column to see which process is increasing it's time..might be more then one though | 09:03 |
| Slart | misslecommande1: it is normal afaik | 09:03 |
| misslecommande1 | ok ty | 09:03 |
| jay-oh-en | can somebody help me with doing a manual install? | 09:03 |
| jay-oh-en | misslecommande1: you figure your problem out? | 09:04 |
| rocco | is that the time column in a ps aux commaned Slart ? | 09:04 |
| fotoflo | quick terminal question: i have several files 1.gz 2.gz 3.gz and i want to rename them all ABC1.gz ABC2.gz... how do i do this? | 09:04 |
| jay-oh-en | !swap | 09:04 |
| ubotu | swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info | 09:04 |
| misslecommande1 | seems like the nvidia-gtk-new was causing more frequent freezes | 09:04 |
| _ruben | fotoflo: for $x in *.gz ; do mv $x ABC$x ; done | 09:05 |
| jay-oh-en | misslecommande1: yep that was it i just couldnt stick arond to help sorry but im glad you got your problem fixed | 09:05 |
| misslecommande1 | i feel like i am taking a lunch break, 2 or 3 days of hell, finally now i can see what linux is all about | 09:05 |
| misslecommande1 | yeah me 2 | 09:05 |
| Slart | rocco: try using htop instead of top.. you get pretty colors and some extra columns | 09:05 |
| Slart | rocco: or just use the system monitor in gnome | 09:06 |
| misslecommande1 | getting connected to network was a MAJOR help, so major | 09:06 |
| rocco | system monitor in gnome says 2% | 09:06 |
| rocco | I'm logged in over ssh | 09:06 |
| harrison | hello | 09:06 |
| jay-oh-en | so can anybody help with donig a manual install? like selecting how much space ech partion needs | 09:06 |
| misslecommande1 | test | 09:06 |
| Slart | rocco: you can select what columns to view in the system monitor.. there are many many | 09:06 |
| Slart | hello harrison | 09:07 |
| harrison | I cant find my old irc client... | 09:07 |
| jay-oh-en | fine then ignore me | 09:07 |
| harrison | oh well | 09:07 |
| Slart | jay-oh-en: I'm to tired to do a walk-through.. but you can ask us questions as you run into them | 09:07 |
| misslecommande1 | pidgin stops every once in a while, dont quite know wht | 09:07 |
| rocco | Slart, htop shows 0.7% cpu sometimes, occasionally 1.3% | 09:07 |
| TFrog | is there anyone here that has setup gkrellm and using the gkrellkam plugin? | 09:07 |
| rocco | only 1 process running | 09:07 |
| jay-oh-en | Slart: its not really a walk through i just need you to answer questions i ask along the way | 09:08 |
| Slart | rocco: you could try running powertop.. not that I think about it that shows wake ups.. and what is running | 09:08 |
| harrison | I spent all night looking on how to enable AGP fastwrite, I enabled it and there barly any difference :P | 09:08 |
| rocco | ahhh cool | 09:08 |
| jay-oh-en | slart like if i have 500gb harddrive how much swap do i need and how much /home partion and how much / partion? | 09:08 |
| rocco | it's dropping right down now | 09:08 |
| rocco | 0.14 | 09:08 |
| misslecommande1 | jay-oh-en : i see what you said, pigdin stopped on me, i just closes tab and /join again | 09:08 |
| rocco | maybe it was the uptime and top commands that were driving it high? | 09:08 |
| Slart | jay-oh-en: all the gurus say swap should be twice your RAM | 09:08 |
| Bokja | can sb help me install windows on the second partition | 09:09 |
| Slart | rocco: that might very well be it | 09:09 |
| rocco | Slart, how stupid ;) | 09:09 |
| jay-oh-en | slart i have 1gb ram ddr2 i think tho | 09:09 |
| harrison | really, what does swap do? | 09:09 |
| misslecommande1 | i am not using swap file, i can make a partition for it though | 09:09 |
| rocco | that interrogating your system can lead it to show that it may be broken | 09:09 |
| jay-oh-en | harrison: acts as extra mem | 09:09 |
| Slart | jay-oh-en: then 2 GB swap should be ok | 09:09 |
| jay-oh-en | !swap > harrison | 09:09 |
| harrison | oh of course | 09:09 |
| jay-oh-en | Slart: how much is that in mbs? | 09:10 |
| harrison | like virtual memory on windows? | 09:10 |
| Slart | jay-oh-en: 2048 MB | 09:10 |
| misslecommande1 | i will make a swap file eventually | 09:10 |
| jay-oh-en | slart thanks | 09:10 |
| misslecommande1 | you think not having swap file might be cuase of some freezes ? | 09:10 |
| harrison | How much performance can I gain with a swap file? | 09:11 |
| misslecommande1 | mostly happens when clicking or keyboard input | 09:11 |
| jay-oh-en | Slart: how much for the whole linux system like the "/" partion | 09:11 |
| Slart | jay-oh-en: for the rest I'd say.. 10 GB for the system root | 09:11 |
| robinsjostrom | everytime i start ubuntu i have to type "ifup eth0" to get ip from dhcp server. How can i make it do this automaticly? | 09:11 |
| olddude67 | misslecommande1, how much memory does your computer have? | 09:12 |
| rocco | Slart I like powertop | 09:12 |
| rocco | :D | 09:12 |
| Slart | jay-oh-en: and the rest to be used for home and such... depends on what you are going to install... are you going to use wine? then your home drive grows substantially | 09:12 |
| jay-oh-en | Slart: most people say 30gbs | 09:12 |
| Slart | rocco: it's great.. | 09:12 |
| rocco | you're telling me | 09:12 |
| misslecommande1 | olddude 1 gig ddr 400mhz | 09:12 |
| rocco | well things seemed to have quietened down | 09:12 |
| Slart | jay-oh-en: 30GB is a lot for the system.. hang on.. let me check how big mine is | 09:13 |
| olddude67 | you might want to have a swap file then. | 09:13 |
| jay-oh-en | Slart: i have 500gb harddrive so i am going to make the /home the rest then i have another 200gb of mem for just whatever | 09:13 |
| misslecommande1 | thats why i didnt make swapfile right away, i had alot of memory | 09:13 |
| misslecommande1 | olddude: ok i will make one next reboot | 09:13 |
| olddude67 | i have a gig and a half and still have a swap file. | 09:13 |
| harrison | how do I check my current swap file size? | 09:13 |
| jay-oh-en | !root | 09:14 |
| ubotu | Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 09:14 |
| misslecommande1 | olddude : i had reseved only 25 gig of 80 gig HD for ubuntu, but wasnt expecting it to ask me for swap after i chose full free space | 09:14 |
| harrison | anyone got any help? | 09:14 |
| misslecommande1 | i can easily make room though, i am good at that | 09:14 |
| Slart | jay-oh-en: my computer is still thinking about the disk size thingy... I think I have less than 8GB used on my root partition.. | 09:14 |
| harrison | anyone? | 09:15 |
| jay-oh-en | Slart: but is it going to get bigger or no | 09:15 |
| olddude67 | well it would be a good choice if u have the room | 09:15 |
| Slart | jay-oh-en: not that much.. | 09:15 |
| harrison | how do I check my swap size? | 09:15 |
| misslecommande1 | olddude: on this machine i have total of 240 gig available, but i also have multiple OS's | 09:15 |
| robinsjostrom | why do i have to type "ifup eth0" to get ip from dhcp server everytime i reboot? | 09:15 |
| dgjones | harrison, the simplest way i can think of off the top of my head would be to open gparted and see what that shows the parition sizes are | 09:15 |
| Slart | jay-oh-en: but you could make it 30 GB if it makes you sleep better at night =) | 09:15 |
| harrison | gparter an app I guess? | 09:16 |
| jay-oh-en | Slart: im going to do some research cause why waste space | 09:16 |
| olddude67 | harrison, i use gkrellm and at the bottom it tells me my swap size command wise i wouldnt know. | 09:16 |
| misslecommande1 | robinsjostrom : i have similiar issue, but i dont know of the ifup thing | 09:16 |
| robinsjostrom | misslecommande1: damn i need to get it to work | 09:16 |
| harrison | is gkrellm avalable in add remove? | 09:16 |
| rocco | Slart seems to have subsided now | 09:17 |
| dgjones | harrison, yes, its under one of the drop down menus, not the apps one though, i'm not on ubuntu at the minute so i can't point directly to it | 09:17 |
| Slart | jay-oh-en: if you don't want to waste space you can make one big system drive.. but then backing up will be trickier | 09:17 |
| harrison | ok | 09:17 |
| Slart | rocco: hehe.. boiled pot and all =) | 09:17 |
| harrison | found it! | 09:17 |
| misslecommande1 | robinson: i would think there is a script you can run at boot, but i am new, so i dont know for sure | 09:17 |
| harrison | installing | 09:17 |
| rocco | Slart, thanks for the help....I'll keep an eye on it | 09:17 |
| robinsjostrom | misslecommande1: auto eth0 | 09:17 |
| robinsjostrom | iface eth0 inet dhcp | 09:17 |
| rocco | but was getting worried | 09:17 |
| rocco | chkrootkit showed nothing | 09:17 |
| misslecommande1 | robin : thank you, i sure could use that | 09:18 |
| jay-oh-en | Slart: ok i have 700gigs you think im worried about that | 09:18 |
| Slart | jay-oh-en: ok..my /usr is 8.8 GB.. the rest is under 1 GB in size.. | 09:18 |

| sahil_ | hi i have a few systems that are identical in every way i'd like to clone an ubuntu install i have on one to all of them-the only thought i had was dd the hd onto the others but that seems tedious any other ideas? | 09:37 |
| Anubis_be | randomwalker http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/52238/ | 09:38 |
| dgjones | !cloning | sahil_ | 09:38 |
| ubotu | sahil_: To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type « dpkg --get-selections > ~/my-packages », move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type « sudo dpkg --set-selections < my-packages && apt-get dselect-upgrade » - See also !automate | 09:38 |
| sahil_ | dgjones:its a little more complicated-these are the oem-prepared ones | 09:38 |
| Anubis_be | parthan why? only here are people nice enough to help others! | 09:38 |
| sahil_ | so i want to leave at the state for the first user login | 09:38 |
| sahil_ | !automate | 09:38 |
| ubotu | Ways to automate installation of Ubuntu on multiple machines are described at https://help.ubuntu.com/6.10/ubuntu/installation-guide/i386/automatic-install.html - See also !cloning | 09:39 |
| parthan | Anubis_be, your question has more relevance to bash than to just ubuntu | 09:39 |
| sahil_ | i think i might have to dd | 09:39 |
| dgjones | sahil_, not sure what to suggest, dd might be your best option, there's probably some other app that you could use, but i can't think of anything off the top of my head | 09:40 |
| sahil_ | dgjones:real quick how would i dd an entire hd to another? | 09:40 |
| sahil_ | like the command | 09:40 |

| Jambon_ | is there anything I can do to go back to regular resolution? Even if I still have to deal with my laptop screen turning on all the time (it's broken) I'll deal as long as I get back to 1024x768 | 09:42 |

| randomwalker | Anubis_be, ok.. you're going to need to look up regexes. it's not too hard, but it'll take an hour or two | 09:52 |
| fanat1k | Hi all. I need help with latest OpenOffice and Ubuntu 7.10. I've download rpm's, generate deb's, install it. But know I can't find it. Like there is no office on computer... I wanna open *.xls document, but I can't... | 09:52 |
| dgjones | zetheroo, yes, works from straight install | 09:52 |
| Kanedacorp | azrael_: sudo cp /where/the/file/is /usr/local/games/quake4 I think | 09:52 |
| zetheroo | dgjones: well I have 4 clients with laptops with the Atheros chipset adn they all have the same issue... lower range | 09:53 |
| randomwalker | Anubis_be, you'll need a script that goes like this perl -ne 'if (/REGEX/) {print "[\n$1\n$2\n$3\n$4\n]\n"}' | 09:53 |
| LtBrenton | Hey...Having some issues with recording audio in Feisty (tried the usual suspects, no luck (USB audio)) | 09:53 |
| misslecommander | zetheroo : could it be a power management issue ? | 09:53 |
| randomwalker | Anubis_be, basically you capture the 4 fields with regexes and spit them out in a different format | 09:53 |
| misslecommander | maybe there is a way you can stop it from trying to save power | 09:54 |
| randomwalker | Anubis_be, feel you can handle that? | 09:54 |
| Anubis_be | randomwalker are you still here a bit later? I will try it | 09:54 |
| randomwalker | Anubis_be, yeah, i should be | 09:54 |
| zetheroo | misslecommander: you mean the card saving power? | 09:54 |
| dgjones | zetheroo, strange, my atheros gets the best signal on ubuntu from any machine in the house, other ones are a Broadcom 4306 and Intel Wifi, always constantly over 80%, wheras windows was about 75% before it got deleted | 09:54 |
| kost_ | How can I create libraries?? | 09:54 |
| misslecommander | Zeth : yes | 09:55 |
| Anubis_be | randomwalker ok will give it a try | 09:55 |

| zetheroo | misslecommander: can you help me with that? | 09:56 |
| nhorning | can I get some help? | 09:56 |
| misslecommander | kost_ : i thought i needed to do that too, but i just download them from the ubuntu site. | 09:56 |

| kost_ | how to uninstall wine? i want to do it from the beggining xD | 09:59 |
| misslecommander | kost_ : there is a way to configure them to be downloaded in Synaptic Package Manager, using the settings for internet downloads in Software Sources. the ubuntu site also has a way you can download most any library, but that way is harder | 09:59 |
| azrael_ | azrael@azrael-desktop:~$ chmod +x quake4-linux-1.4.2.x86.run | 09:59 |

| erUSUL | misslecommander: use a real irc client like xchat | 10:00 |
| misslecommander | lol | 10:00 |
| erUSUL | azrael_: then first do «cd Desktop» | 10:01 |
| misslecommander | erUSUL : last time i did that, it asked me to do some command like xxxx -f and it erased my ubuntu install | 10:01 |
| dgjones | misslecommander, as erUSUL says, try using xchat from synaptic, thats a good irc client | 10:01 |
| zetheroo | misslecommander: any idea how to deal with the power saving | 10:01 |

| misslecommander | Zeth : i can only speak of windows style, but i know you can change the way it works on power save in Linux. | 10:03 |
| dgjones | misslecommander, now you've got web access, its simple to do, you just open synaptic, search for xchat, tell it to install and click apply, thats all, it does everything for you | 10:03 |
| LtBrenton | azrael_: cd Desktop | 10:03 |

| === elwo0d_ghost is now known as elwo0d | ||
| LtBrenton | basically I record myself and when I play back I sound like I've been huffing helium -_- | 10:11 |
| misslecommander | USB audio card ? | 10:11 |
| LtBrenton | yes | 10:11 |
| LtBrenton | Audigy 2NX | 10:11 |
| misslecommander | didnt know they made them | 10:11 |
| misslecommander | oh yes, i have heard of audigy CL ? | 10:12 |
| LtBrenton | Alternative solution would be for someone to tell me how to fix my HDA Intel so the recordings aren't just noise | 10:12 |
| lostxion | anyone know how i would unlock my default key ring? | 10:12 |
| misslecommander | i got lucky, my audio worked first time, even during live-cd | 10:12 |
| LtBrenton | misslecommander: it PLAYS fine | 10:13 |
| LtBrenton | misslecommander: it just won't RECORD right | 10:13 |
| misslecommander | double0click the icon near your clock | 10:13 |
| misslecommander | maybe something simple like line input not selected or volume control too low | 10:14 |
| LtBrenton | misslecommander: tried all the usual suspects ;) | 10:14 |
| bullgard4 | I have read 'man telinit' but not understood in what situation one would instruct 'telinit 2'. | 10:14 |
| misslecommander | was my first thought | 10:14 |
| robinsjostrom | if i want a command to run at startup, in what file should i put the command? | 10:14 |
| LtBrenton | misslecommander: it recognizes, and the meters bounce. but with my USB audio card, it records higher pitched than it should | 10:14 |
| LtBrenton | misslecommander: and with my intel HD, it's just distorted and completely unusable | 10:15 |
| misslecommander | ltB : pitch ? volume level ? | 10:15 |
| Avenger_ | Someone here already used imapsync? | 10:15 |
| misslecommander | oh yes you said helium | 10:15 |
| LtBrenton | :P | 10:15 |
| Avenger_ | i can't migrate the "Sent" box | 10:15 |
| misslecommander | very unusal, i never heard a card do that | 10:15 |
| Jambon_ | how do I reset the graphics settings? I tried to change my monitor preferences and I've gunked the whole affair | 10:16 |
| misslecommander | maybe the settings for the USB itself, | 10:16 |
| LtBrenton | misslecommander: yes. i'm recording through JACK, but when I record through ALSA it does the same | 10:16 |
| robinsjostrom | if i want a command to run at startup, in what file should i put the command?´ | 10:16 |
| bullgard4 | robinsjostrom: System > Preferences > Sessions > Start Programs > Add | 10:16 |
| misslecommander | ltbrandon: i have same alsa, i dont have mic, so i cant tell you if mine does the same | 10:16 |
| misslecommander | bullguard L thats great i wondered about that too | 10:17 |
| * LtBrenton boots his ubuntu rig up | 10:17 | |

| bullgard4 | !sound | krabador | 10:19 |
| ubotu | krabador: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 10:19 |

| LtBrenton | krabador: am I right in thinking that the sound card you want to play through is your second card? (not your onboard card) | 10:22 |
| krabador | ltbrenton | 10:23 |
| LtBrenton | yeah? | 10:23 |

| Hewus | hi guys. I think I viewed a corrupted video file, and the display went all these pretty colours (pink/green). Now whenever I play a video, even perfectly fine ones, I still get that corrupted video with the colours. I logged out and back in earlier which fixed it, but I've done it again now and I'd prefer not to have to log out atm. Does anyone know the service or whatever that I could restart to fix it? Happens in everything: tote | 10:33 |
| Hewus | m, vlc, mplayer | 10:33 |
| LtBrenton | Hmm, I fixed it, kinda | 10:35 |
| ActionParsnip | hey all | 10:36 |
| misslecommander | hello | 10:37 |
| ActionParsnip | hi misslecommander | 10:38 |
| misslecommander | whats best for streaming audio, windows media player seems to not work as Firefox plugin ? | 10:38 |
| misslecommander | VLC player do that ? | 10:39 |
| johnny_ | hi folks, anybody here missing the volume control applet? | 10:39 |
| johnny_ | i've seen issues with it, but it had to do with the icon theme | 10:39 |
| glassface | I'm trying to install oracle 9i on my ubuntu 7.10 box. I tried almost all howtos. no use. | 10:39 |
| johnny_ | i don't even have it in the "Add to Panel" dialog | 10:39 |
| glassface | i followed even https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Oracle9i | 10:39 |
| glassface | no use, can any one have an idea of installing 9i on ubuntu | 10:39 |
| johnny_ | glassface, you're not going to get much help on anything that technical here sadly | 10:39 |
| johnny_ | it's mostly n00bs | 10:39 |
| johnny_ | you should try on the oracle specific chats | 10:40 |
| misslecommander | lol | 10:40 |
| glassface | johnny_; oh too sad. | 10:40 |
| johnny_ | unless there is an ubuntu server channel now | 10:40 |
| glassface | i'm expecting some one who had resolved the same problem | 10:40 |
| johnny_ | try there maybe? | 10:40 |
| johnny_ | no.. this is for folks who are still learning linux mostly | 10:40 |
| ikonia | glassface: what is the problem ? | 10:40 |
| bazhang | #ubuntu-server | 10:40 |
| johnny_ | of course you will run into some folks :) | 10:40 |
| ikonia | glassface: I joined after your question | 10:41 |
| johnny_ | it's just not expecting :) | 10:41 |
| glassface | ok | 10:41 |
| glassface | I'm trying to install oracle 9i on my ubuntu 7.10 box. I tried almost all howtos. no use. | 10:41 |
| johnny_ | you will get best help from oracle specialists for sure | 10:41 |
| Away | I need help | 10:41 |
| glassface | ikonia; the installer is stopping at 0%, with link pending message | 10:41 |
| Hewus | Anyone know what I have to do to restart my broken video? It normally fixes with a logout but I can't logout atm. | 10:41 |
| Away | I need to install compiler on my root how | 10:41 |
| ikonia | glassface: well, I can pause you there for a moment, there are compatability issues between Oracle 10 and ubuntu 7.10 in general things like java for the installer, glibc is a bit too new, etc. I would assume the same would be true of Oracle 9 if 10 is having issues | 10:42 |
| ikonia | Away: what do you want to compile | 10:42 |
| ActionParsnip | !gcc | Away | 10:42 |
| ubotu | Away: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first) | 10:42 |
| glassface | yes, there is a jre issue with that one, but i managed to pass that one. | 10:42 |
| ActionParsnip | Away, are you compiling C code? | 10:42 |
| ikonia | glassface: Oracle does not support ubuntu as a supported platform, one of the reasons was the 6 month release cycle is too fast to keep up with | 10:42 |
| Away | U may want to take a look at this | 10:42 |
| Away | http://pastebin.com/d48e882bd | 10:42 |
| johnny_ | so, anybody here here have that volume control issue? | 10:43 |
| johnny_ | but not related to the icon theme | 10:43 |
| ikonia | Away: thats not an ubuntu box | 10:43 |
| mavi- | volume control is broken in many many ways | 10:43 |
| ikonia | Away: please take that to an appropriate channel | 10:43 |
| zt34528 | Away: this is a *ubuntu* specific channel | 10:43 |
| glassface | ha, i had tried on rhel4 too, but no use with that one also. and more over i'm interested in ubuntu. | 10:43 |
| mavi- | like, mute all sounds and flash-movies will still do sounds | 10:44 |
| ikonia | glassface: RHEL4 and 5 are supported platforms. | 10:44 |
| glassface | ikonia; so where shud i ask my question ? | 10:44 |
| misslecommander | will VLC player replace what Media Player is not playing in Firefox ? | 10:44 |
| jimcooncat | with gnome, can I add a menu extension or panel widget that will show my files? Like the Places menu, only I can drill down through the filesystem? | 10:44 |
| ikonia | glassface: in #oracle I guess, but you won't get much help and certainly no official support as ubuntu is not a supported platform and it does have known compatability issues | 10:44 |
| mavi- | jimcooncat: you want it on the panel? | 10:44 |
| mavi- | jimcooncat: or just the file browser? | 10:45 |
| rocco | Slart, just FYI https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/183729 | 10:45 |
| jimcooncat | mavi-: I'd like not to have to open the file browser just to get to a single file | 10:45 |
| ActionParsnip | misslecommander, what you trying to play? | 10:45 |
| glassface | ok. will try there. i thought some one here had challenged it already. any how thanks for your concern. | 10:45 |
| johnny_ | mavi-, nowhere but my ubuntu box at work :) | 10:45 |
| johnny_ | it works fine on my desktop machine (gentoo) and mine and my gf's ubuntu laptops :) | 10:45 |
| misslecommander | ActionParsnip : audio streams , like radio streaming on the net | 10:45 |
| johnny_ | it's just broken on this machine somehow | 10:46 |
| Slart | rocco: ah.. thanks for the info.. interesting | 10:46 |
| mavi- | jimcooncat: i dont think there are such a file browser, but the deskbar let you search for files and open them without file manager | 10:46 |
| misslecommander | PodCast's and such as live streaming radio | 10:46 |
| branstrom | Any way to regenerate the /etc/motd from motd.tail, without rebooting? | 10:46 |
| jimcooncat | mavi-: thanks, that will work for me | 10:47 |
| misslecommander | i am afraid to break Firefox lol | 10:47 |
| mavi- | jimcooncat: just rightklick the panel and "add to panel" then deskbar | 10:47 |
| ikonia | misslecommander: audtio streaming servers have nothing to do with firefox, you'll be fine | 10:47 |
| zoli2k | Hi! In evolution mail client I received a zip file from an old outlook client. The attachment contains some nonsense chain of ascii characters. How can I convert this to a working ZIP? any ideas? | 10:47 |
| mavi- | Jinx: then rightclick the deskbar-icon to get some more settings, it can search alot of places not just your files | 10:47 |
| mavi- | Jinx: nm | 10:47 |
| Sean | hi | 10:47 |
| misslecommander | ikonia : i have places i would normally go to stream radio, but, i was using windows media player | 10:48 |
| ali_sodiq | fhfhf | 10:48 |
| ActionParsnip | misslecommander, do you mean asx files? | 10:48 |
| misslecommander | yes | 10:48 |
| ActionParsnip | misslecommander, theres a player for them. Gimme a sec | 10:48 |
| misslecommander | when i try to play them, i get no sound, and the player stops | 10:48 |
| misslecommander | Action : thank you | 10:48 |
| mavi- | misslecommander: try the mplayer mozilla plugin, that works great for me. | 10:49 |
| ActionParsnip | misslecommander, http://vntutor.blogspot.com/2008/01/how-to-play-asx-files-under-firefox.html | 10:49 |
| misslecommander | mavi : i was looking at that, and have it in repository list, but wasnt sure it would work | 10:49 |
| misslecommander | Action : thank you | 10:49 |
| ActionParsnip | misslecommander, np dude | 10:50 |
| krabador | LtBrenton? | 10:50 |
| mavi- | this is so silly | 10:50 |
| Cin | so i'm on gutsy | 10:50 |
| Cin | i hit Win+R | 10:51 |
| mavi- | why doesnt the volume applet mute all sounds when you mute | 10:51 |
| Cin | and it zoomed in | 10:51 |
| Cin | how do i zoom out? | 10:51 |
| mavi- | Cin: win + mousewheel to zoom in/out | 10:51 |
| krabador | LtBrenton? | 10:51 |
| Cin | mavi-: ahh, cheers | 10:51 |
| ikonia | krabador: do you have a question, or is there a reason you keep saying that | 10:51 |
| johnny_ | krabador, the person will get back to you | 10:52 |
| johnny_ | once is enough | 10:52 |
| rocco | Slart, hehe np, I thoght I'd do a little digging....it was worrying me | 10:52 |
| rocco | ;) | 10:52 |
| johnny_ | uggh.. some people really remind me why i don't come to #ubuntu | 10:52 |
| ActionParsnip | krabador, wassup? | 10:53 |
| krabador | ikonia: simply i'm searching an user who helpem me 10 minute ago | 10:53 |
| johnny_ | please don't ping folks directly | 10:53 |
| johnny_ | it's bad nettiquette | 10:53 |
| johnny_ | eventually you'll irritate them and they will put you on ignore | 10:53 |
| krabador | right | 10:53 |
| misslecommander | says i have "Broken Packages" | 10:53 |
| krabador | :) | 10:53 |

| mamour | bonjour ,quel est le salon "ubuntu français "? SVP | 10:54 |
| Flannel | !fr | mamour | 10:54 |
| ubotu | mamour: Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais. | 10:54 |
| misslecommander | says i have "Broken Packages" | 10:54 |
| Slart | rocco: yea.. seeing lots of users logged on to your home desktop can keep you up all night =) | 10:54 |
| rocco | indeed | 10:54 |
| rocco | it happens for every tty too | 10:54 |
| misslecommander | i will try it from Synaptic | 10:54 |
| mamour | merci Flannel... | 10:54 |
| rocco | so if you log into tty 1-6 | 10:54 |
| rocco | and then log out of all of them | 10:54 |
| rocco | and do a w | 10:54 |
| rocco | you'd get 6 users logged in | 10:54 |
| ActionParsnip | misslecommander, which package is broken? | 10:55 |
| johnny_ | try sudo apt-get install -f | 10:55 |
| bullgard4 | I have read 'man telinit' but not understood in what situation one would instruct 'telinit 2'. | 10:55 |
| johnny_ | that usually fixes problems | 10:55 |
| Slart | rocco: well.. the w command isn't really system critical.. but I wonder if there's anything else using that utmp info | 10:55 |
| zt34528 | bullgard4: telinit 2 tells init to change to runlevel 2 | 10:55 |
| zt34528 | bullgard4: if you are already in runlevel 2, it's pointless | 10:55 |
| rocco | Slart, it's not system critical, but..... | 10:56 |
| rocco | it can sure worry the heck out of a sysadmin | 10:56 |
| bullgard4 | zt34528: I know that and I have asked in what situations I might need to to give such an instruction. | 10:56 |
| Slart | rocco: yes.. indeed.. but now that we know about it it's not really a problem.. more of a nuiscance | 10:57 |
| rocco | yeh | 10:58 |
| zt34528 | bullgard4: for example if you have defined runlevel 5 as a set of services without sshd and without gdm, you would change to that set of services with telinit 5 (or simply init 5) | 10:58 |
| imyousuf | Hi. I have a sha1 for a file. E.g. 7d0736f69bec14b8872614bcaee3efbe68af9486 /home/imyousuf/dump-test/test123.dump | 10:59 |
| bullgard4 | zt34528: I see. | 10:59 |
| imyousuf | how can I later at some point verify using this information whether the file is valid or not? | 10:59 |
| === misho_ is now known as LauraBerlin | ||
| esperegu | anyone knows some cheap dedicated hardware that can run some opensource NAS? | 11:00 |
| Slart | imyousuf: calculate the sha1 for the file again at a later time.. if the hashes match it's probably the same file | 11:00 |
| ActionParsnip | esperegu, most NAS run opensource OS | 11:00 |
| esperegu | ActionParsnip: u know any cheap ones? | 11:01 |
| ActionParsnip | esperegu, how big do you want? | 11:01 |
| imyousuf | I see Slart, is there a way to specify the sha1sum to check it instead of me doing it? | 11:01 |
| Slart | imyousuf: how did you calculate the hash that you have there? | 11:01 |
| imyousuf | sha1sum /home/imyousuf/dump-test/test123.dump | 11:02 |
| esperegu | ActionParsnip: Not that big. Just one or 2 disks or so. | 11:02 |
| gary4gar | i was having problem with wifi, so i filled a bug report, can anyone confirm if BUG #183731 is real? | 11:02 |
| misslecommander | The following packages have unmet dependencies: | 11:02 |
| misslecommander | mozilla-plugin-vlc: Depends: vlc-nox | 11:02 |
| ActionParsnip | esperegu, how about a 1gb nas? | 11:02 |
| Slart | imyousuf: look at the manpage for sha1sum... "man sha1sum" | 11:02 |
| esperegu | ActionParsnip: Of course if it comes cheap with 4 it's also good | 11:02 |
| gary4gar | !bug #183731 | 11:02 |
| Slart | imyousuf: there's a -c or --check switch | 11:03 |
| imyousuf | I did, it has a option -c for checking | 11:03 |
| misslecommander | i tried to install just vlc-nox, but that has its onw problems | 11:03 |
| imyousuf | but I cld not get it to work Slart | 11:03 |
| misslecommander | i tried directions from vlc site, just as they said, no luck | 11:03 |

| imyousuf | ok Slart | 11:03 |

| ActionParsnip | esperegu, you need to be specific with storage capacity that you need | 11:04 |
| strike | what am i missing | 11:04 |
| bullgard4 | gary4gar: "Installation Gutsy (7.10) with kde4 failed." is real. | 11:04 |
| ActionParsnip | strike, you need #!/bin/bash at the top of it | 11:05 |

| larson9999 | ted.com rocks! | 11:06 |
| ActionParsnip | Switch^, it comes as part of a standard install | 11:06 |
| bullgard4 | gary4gar: Bug #183730 does not exist (at the moment) though 183731 and 183729 do exist. | 11:08 |
| imyousuf | Slart: I got it to work thanks to Tv in #git :). sha1sum ~/dump-test/test123.dump > /tmp/test123.sha1 && sha1sum -c /tmp/test123.sha1; this works | 11:08 |
| esperegu | ActionParsnip: ho.. that is expensive. I was hoping for a unit (without disks) for about 50 -150 euro | 11:08 |
| imyousuf | the sha1 file has the path of the file thus with -c sha1sum knows where to look for the file | 11:08 |
| Slart | imyousuf: ok.. I have a file called testfile... first I create the hash by doing "sha1sum testfile > testfile.checksum". If I want to check the hash at some later point I do "sha1sum -c testfile.checksum" and it prints "testfile: OK" if it's still the same or "testfile: FAILED | 11:09 |
| Slart | sha1sum: WARNING: 1 of 1 computed checksum did NOT match | 11:09 |
| Slart | " if it isn't the same | 11:09 |
| ActionParsnip | esperegu, oic you want a NAS shell with no disks...you never said | 11:09 |

| unicum | HELP | 11:11 |
| unicum | i have a screen problem.. a huge one, or rather tiny | 11:12 |
| unicum | i installed nvidia-glx to get iglooftp running | 11:12 |
| Parsec300 | Sergo, are you trying to resize the partition you are booting from by any chance? | 11:12 |
| ActionParsnip | unicum, you mean your resolution is making the screen massive | 11:12 |
| bullgard4 | gary4gar: I could open your link. | 11:12 |
| gary4gar | Sergo, use Gparted live cd & then try. http://gparted-livecd.tuxfamily.org/ | 11:12 |
| Sergo | Parsec300, i am booting from a LiveCd | 11:12 |
| unicum | my resolution is at 640x480 | 11:12 |
| Slart | J-_: fvwm is one.. but it's butt-ugly =) | 11:12 |
| unicum | even though i reinstalled the nvidia-glx-new driver | 11:12 |
| ActionParsnip | unicum, dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 11:13 |
| zt34528 | unicum: what has iglooftp running | 11:13 |
| Sergo | Parsec300, i am trying to resize an partition with boot flags ext3 | 11:13 |
| Sergo | :) | 11:13 |
| Parsec300 | Then that partition is mounted by the live cd automatically | 11:13 |
| unicum | zt u need xgl to get igloo running | 11:13 |
| zt34528 | unicum: what has iglooftp to do with nvidia-glx? | 11:13 |
| unicum | ActionParsnip, is that supposed to go into the terminal? | 11:13 |
| gary4gar | Sergo, do a sudo umount -a & then try | 11:13 |
| ActionParsnip | unicum, you need to add the resolution options to you xorg.conf which that command will help you with | 11:13 |
| Sergo | Parsec300, it is possible to umount it ,yes?) | 11:13 |
| Parsec300 | I think you should unmount it first | 11:13 |
| ActionParsnip | unicum, yes | 11:13 |
| Parsec300 | Yes, | 11:13 |
| Sergo | gary4gar thanks | 11:13 |
| ActionParsnip | unicum, you'll need sudo | 11:13 |
| unicum | k, cool | 11:13 |
| unicum | right | 11:13 |
| Slart | J-_: perhaps you should take a look at what Xandros uses.. I think that's pretty windows-oriented | 11:14 |
| J-_ | okay thanks, if VPC doesn't work out I'll tell him to try vmware bazhang, Slart | 11:14 |
| unicum | zt igloo needs beryll or xgl to run a display | 11:14 |
| unicum | i dunno why, but it says so | 11:14 |
| Parsec300 | Sergo, do you see the icon of that partition on your desktop? | 11:14 |
| ActionParsnip | J-_: I use virtualbox whic has a win32 port | 11:14 |
| bazhang | J-_: no worries :} | 11:14 |
| ActionParsnip | unicum, what do you mean? | 11:14 |
| ActionParsnip | unicum, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2QsP8GDTpno | 11:15 |
| J-_ | does VPC have an option to run as an ISO instead of cd? | 11:15 |
| kandinski | how can I have the ubuntu live CD to run from ram? | 11:15 |
| Parsec300 | If you do, try rightclicking it and perhaps it says eject or something of the sort. If not, you'll have to open a terminal window. | 11:15 |
| unicum | uhm.. ok | 11:15 |
| kandinski | my friend's new computer has 2G of memory, so I want to devote a lot of it to hold the system so it runs even faster than the windows that runs from hard disk | 11:15 |
| ActionParsnip | unicum, eventually it'll get to what you are doing | 11:15 |
| unicum | ok | 11:16 |
| unicum | cool, thx | 11:16 |
| Slart | kandinski: ok, I think linux/ubuntu already does that | 11:16 |
| esperegu | ActionParsnip: You know a website of OS Nasfirmware that has a listing of supported devices or something like that? | 11:16 |
| ActionParsnip | kandinski, if you run from live cd, ALL the ram will be used for the Live Distro | 11:16 |
| kandinski | ActionParsnip: cool | 11:16 |
| kandinski | thanks both of you | 11:16 |
| ActionParsnip | esperegu, its a NAS, they are usually accessed over ftp but check the manufacturer to see if they say Linux support. I know the WD QuickBook cvan be a pain | 11:17 |

| unicum | ActionParsnip, how do i restart my x now? | 11:22 |
| PatrickBic | unicum, control+alt + backspace | 11:22 |
| unicum | wasn't it like stop xserver? | 11:22 |
| ActionParsnip | unicum, ctrl + alt + backspace | 11:22 |
| unicum | oh, k | 11:22 |
| PatrickBic | ActionParsnip, or ps -ef and kill ^^ | 11:22 |
| strike | looks like that partition was mounted noexec.. fair enough | 11:23 |
| ActionParsnip | PatrickBic, or /etc/init.d/xfs retart | 11:23 |
| PatrickBic | isnt xfs some file system | 11:24 |
| unicum | thx a lot, ActionParsnip.. that'd help | 11:24 |
| ActionParsnip | unicum, all good now? | 11:24 |
| strike | i think xfs is optimised for large media files videos and such | 11:24 |
| unicum | just, how do i get my framesettings to 60 hz again? | 11:24 |
| unicum | it'll still only show 50 :( | 11:24 |
| esperegu | ActionParsnip: maybe I am misunderstanding it. I mean the os... I would like to know which 'distributions' are available for which nas devices... (like you have dd-wrt for the linksys wrt54gl) | 11:24 |
| unicum | rest's fine, running on 1024x768 again | 11:25 |

| 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. | 11:37 |

| Slart | [adw]: ask the question.. let's see if we can answer it | 11:43 |
| === xok`` is now known as x0k`` | ||
| ActionParsnip | misslecommander, you could always use apt to reinstall the package over the top of what is already installed once you work out whats broken | 11:43 |

| misslecommander | i dont see how to check whats broken | 11:44 |
| misslecommander | this is stinks | 11:44 |
| Yanch0 | how can i check if there is still a partition of the disk not formatted / used .. and is it possible i use it as extra storage? also can i move /home/yancho/public_html to there without screwing the paths etc? | 11:44 |
| [adw] | how do i watch the mailbox, and register if a mail has dropped? | 11:44 |
| ActionParsnip | misslecommander, synaptic: edit>fix broken packages | 11:44 |
| misslecommander | how do i see which ones are broken ? | 11:44 |
| Slart | [adw]: a local mailbox? or connect to a server? | 11:44 |
| misslecommander | ok | 11:44 |
| b0ha | why does sudo -i switch to root user without root password ? | 11:44 |
| ActionParsnip | misslecommander, I have no idea about all this you know. I'm just googling like you should too | 11:44 |
| [adw] | slart: local | 11:44 |
| Slart | misslecommander: if you run "sudo apt-get install" it should tell you why it hates you =) | 11:45 |

| am3r1ca | sorry | 11:46 |
| misslecommander | Action : says fixed dependency problems at bottom, is that correct ? | 11:46 |
| ActionParsnip | b0ha: don't switch to the root user. use sudo / gksu to run apps as a 1 shot admin access. It makes your system more secure | 11:46 |
| === presence- is now known as OshaMaHUe | ||
| Slart | [adw]: sounds like more of a "handling mailbox files"-problem than a bash issue | 11:46 |
| ActionParsnip | misslecommander, I have no idea, sounds ok though | 11:46 |
| Slart | [adw]: if I were you I'd write a python/perl script or something | 11:46 |
| misslecommander | Action : so you think i should try to re0install real-player ? as long as i can use that to fix it, i feel better | 11:47 |
| [adw] | Slart: ok, i thought about writing a bash script, but i guess python/perl would do it too | 11:47 |
| Slart | b0ha: and the root account isn't really used in ubuntu.. you have your user account | 11:47 |
| ActionParsnip | misslecommander, I'd just uninstall realplayer and then reinstall | 11:47 |
| misslecommander | how do i uninstall then ? | 11:47 |
| [adw] | Slart: anyways, thanks:) | 11:48 |
| ActionParsnip | misslecommander, sudo apt-get remove realplayer | 11:48 |
| Slart | [adw]: well.. it just seems that a bash script would get nasty pretty quick.. I don't know if bash can handle mailbox files... but I'm pretty sure python has some module for it | 11:48 |
| ActionParsnip | misslecommander, then run sudo apt-get autoremove | 11:48 |
| misslecommander | ok | 11:48 |
| _ruben | [adw]: depending on what you're trying to acomplish exactly, using procmail might be of help | 11:48 |
| [adw] | Slart: yes, because i have to handle the actual file right, its not like i watch the status of for example pine/mutt? | 11:49 |
| misslecommander | E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it? | 11:49 |
| dgjones | misslecommander, when you get to the point of reinstalling realplayer, have a look at Helix Player in synaptic, thats an open source player that supports realplayer | 11:49 |
| ActionParsnip | misslecommander, you need to close synaptic | 11:49 |
| misslecommander | lol just noticed ok | 11:50 |
| ActionParsnip | misslecommander, once its removed run sudo apt-get upgrade and it should say 0 needed etc | 11:50 |
| misslecommander | ok | 11:51 |
| Slart | [adw]: I don't know if pine/mutt/mail can do scripted work.. but mailboxes come in different flavours.. it would be nice to just use a standard package for mail-handling.. well... you're the one doing it.. you'll have to chose for yourself =) | 11:51 |

| misslecommander | the directory only had python folder, but that was empty as we;l; | 12:06 |
| ActionParsnip | misslecommander, do you have /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.5 | 12:06 |
| am3r1ca | ActionParsnip, i dled the right driver, how to install in the kernel...the instructions you sent are for gentoo | 12:07 |
| misslecommander | just sec | 12:07 |
| Slart | kbingham_: you can't.. but you can run dpkg -L I think | 12:07 |
| Slart | kbingham_: sorry.. dpkg -l <-- that's a lower case L | 12:07 |
| shawnmstout | slart, sweet its working | 12:07 |
| kbingham_ | Slart: cheers :) | 12:08 |
| shawnmstout | easy to use the debian installer, easier than i expected | 12:08 |
| ActionParsnip | misslecommander, locate libstdc++.so | 12:08 |
| am3r1ca | it has no makefile | 12:08 |
| Slart | shawnmstout: well.. ubuntu is based on debian, afaik.. don't install debian-stuff and expect it to work.. but sometimes it does | 12:08 |
| am3r1ca | ??? | 12:08 |
| ActionParsnip | misslecommander, thats a CLI command ^ | 12:08 |
| Slart | kbingham_: you're welcome | 12:09 |
| ActionParsnip | misslecommander, does it output anything | 12:09 |
| am3r1ca | found the make...duh | 12:10 |
| am3r1ca | compiling | 12:10 |
| kbingham_ | grrr - still says previous installation of vmwware was detected :S - nothing else to purge. | 12:11 |
| ActionParsnip | kbingham_, are you wanting to uninstall vmware server?? | 12:11 |
| ActionParsnip | kbingham_, you could use synaptic and search for vm | 12:12 |
| kbingham_ | i'm wanting to install vmware server :) but it says previous installation :S | 12:12 |
| kbingham_ | i must have tried a manual install at some point and forgotten about it :S | 12:12 |
| ActionParsnip | kbingham_, uninstall the old one with synaptic | 12:12 |
| kbingham_ | now i can't get rid of it | 12:12 |
| kbingham_ | ActionParsnip: its not there :S | 12:12 |

| shawnmstout | so it worked flawlessly, but thanks for the head up on future installs | 12:13 |

| astro76 | shawnmstout: ifconfig | 12:14 |
| am3r1ca | sometimes the discs change ex: from sdb to sda | 12:15 |
| ActionParsnip | misslecommander, locate libstdc++.so | 12:15 |
| Slart | shawnmstout: ah.. hope it works out nicely for you.. be careful not to expose webmin to the internet though.. only a password between you and the badguys | 12:15 |
| misslecommander | ok | 12:15 |
| ActionParsnip | misslecommander, do you get anything | 12:15 |
| astro76 | am3r1ca: that's why UUIDs are used instead of /dev entries in your fstab | 12:16 |

| Karotte | hi | 12:20 |
| misslecommander | Package libstdc++5 is not available, but is referred to by another package. | 12:20 |
| Karotte | how stable is hardy at the moment? I'm thinking about upgrading from gutsy... | 12:21 |

| Karotte | oh okay | 12:21 |
| Karotte | sorry | 12:21 |
| samad909 | Karotte: np ;) | 12:21 |
| runa | how can i move a 9gb os partition into 200gb os partition | 12:21 |

| mario | hello | 12:22 |
| misslecommander | all i had n\installed on the system was nvdia-gtk-new , nothing else, till i tried the RealPlayer | 12:22 |
| hypn0 | misslecommander: you know there is a realplayer deb file you can install? | 12:22 |
| astro76 | Karotte: Ekiga not working for you? | 12:22 |
| samad909 | i have a similar question like runa's i have a ntfs partition which i am going to format as ext3, how do i add that space to my home partition? | 12:22 |
| vincent_ | Good Afternoon here in Amsterdam | 12:23 |
| stib | Hi all. I'm trying to browse my windows network from a xubuntu machine. Thunar doesn't seem to be able to see samba shares. What should I be using? | 12:23 |
| astro76 | samad909, runa, in a nutshell, delete the one you don't want, and resize the other into the newly freed space | 12:23 |
| Karotte | astro76: no, I can't manage my two incoming "phone lines" with ekiga and it's too simplified, I have no buttons for Hold and Call Transfer and such things.. I can't set DND.. | 12:23 |
| vincent_ | Since I installed 93 patches on my IBM thinkpad Ubutu does not see my wireless card any more. Anybody any idea? | 12:23 |
| stib | !samba > stib | 12:23 |
| samad909 | astro76: i would have to umount the home partition first, would that cause issues? | 12:23 |
| dissonans | flashplugin-nonfree doesn't work in Firefox for me, any tips? | 12:23 |
| misslecommander | if i have to i will cheack every single selection in Synaptic and let it rip, i am about sick of this depency junk | 12:24 |
| astro76 | Karotte: only other softclient I can think of is gizmo | 12:24 |
| Mait | I'm finding how can detect bluetooth streo headset(Motorola S9) and change audio output automatically, or vice versa. | 12:24 |
| dissonans | I think I even installed it via Firefox (which launched APT) | 12:24 |
| astro76 | samad909: yes you should do this from a livecd | 12:24 |
| misslecommander | lol | 12:24 |
| ActionParsnip | misslecommander, apt synaptic is supposed to sort deps | 12:24 |
| samad909 | astro76: oh :S, livecd does not work for me, any other ideas? | 12:24 |

| misslecommander | could it be i dont have all the checkboxes in Sources checked ? | 12:25 |
| samad909 | astro76: thanks loads, was thinking the same ;) | 12:25 |
| misslecommander | ok | 12:25 |
| dgjones | misslecommander, try using "Helixplayer", you install it from synaptic, its an open source player that plays realplayer files | 12:25 |
| misslecommander | E: Couldn't find package helixplayer | 12:25 |

| misslecommander | Action ; ok checking | 12:26 |
| FYI | what is gtk-gnash and why has it kidnapped one of my processors | 12:26 |
| Slart | FYI: open source flash replacement | 12:27 |
| Pici | FYI: gnash is an open source flash replacement. | 12:27 |
| dgjones | FYI, not sure if its the same, but Gnash is the open source Flash replacement, would assume that gtk-gnash is related | 12:27 |
| Slart | now.. all together .. =) | 12:27 |
| godaddy | hehe | 12:27 |
| UltraMagnus | for flash, just download the installer from adobe, its simple to use and better than gnash | 12:27 |
| FYI | thanks everyone :) | 12:27 |
| dgjones | FYI, have you got a website open that uses flash? | 12:27 |
| misslecommander | Action : are you suggesting i do all them ? | 12:28 |
| misslecommander | i really have nothing to lose, i will try anything you want, i am about done with linux | 12:28 |
| FYI | dgjones: nope, I closed firefox and it continued at 100% on one processor | 12:28 |
| FYI | misslecommander: NOOOOOOO! | 12:28 |
| ActionParsnip | no just read it through and see what looks intelligent. I'm guessing you'll need the repositorys | 12:28 |
| misslecommander | ok will do | 12:28 |
| dissonans | hm .. the adobe flash package in APT must be broken ... | 12:29 |
| === kitofhawaii is now known as DarthKitty | ||
| ActionParsnip | misslecommander, its a new OS to you. You will make mistakes and you will break stuff but thats how you learn | 12:29 |
| dissonans | Adobe's installer worked | 12:29 |
| FYI | dissonans: yeah, it is | 12:29 |
| dgjones | !brokenflash | dissonans | 12:29 |
| ubotu | dissonans: 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. | 12:29 |
| dissonans | gah | 12:29 |
| FYI | the md5sum doesn't match when you download it | 12:29 |
| FYI | therefore it fails | 12:29 |
| UltraMagnus | adobe's installer is the easiest thing to use, just download and install | 12:29 |
| Pici | misslecommander: Can you open System>Administration>Software sources and make sure that you have all the checkboxes on the first tab checked? | 12:29 |
| dissonans | I thought I'd tried the official installer earlier | 12:29 |
| dissonans | apparently I was mistaken | 12:30 |
| UltraMagnus | dissonans: go to adobe.com and download it from there | 12:30 |
| dissonans | UltraMagnus: so I did | 12:30 |
| UltraMagnus | oh | 12:30 |

| Pici | FYI: All his repos were disabled and thus he couldnt install anything. | 12:32 |
| misslecommander | nothign will install, right from raw install installation problems | 12:32 |
| Slart | UltraMagnus: it works for 64-bit too? | 12:32 |
| Pici | FYI: I think we fixed it, but we'll see. | 12:32 |
| misslecommander | i can rebuild repos ? i did nothing to disturb them | 12:33 |
| IndianGrl | how do i install icons in 7.04? | 12:33 |
| FYI | misslecommander: I don't think it's about rebuilding -- it's more of just re-enabling them | 12:33 |
| Pici | misslecommander: Sometimes if you dont have an internet connection and attempt to update, it disables the repositories. | 12:33 |
| misslecommander | i'll highlight the script 10 times and let it rip, i am about sick of it | 12:33 |
| Pici | misslecommander: What script? | 12:33 |
| misslecommander | nothing will install without two days of works | 12:33 |

| misslecommander | the whole thing a mess | 12:34 |
| Slart | misslecommander: did you have an url for some streaming audio? the stuff you couldn't play? | 12:34 |

| randomwalker | Anubis_be, yup, go on | 12:40 |
| zoom_ | wich effect ? | 12:40 |
| Anubis_be | randomwalker ok I managed to get the 2 files in the same layout (with a perl script YEEY! :p ) | 12:40 |
| Anubis_be | randomwalker any advice what I should do now? | 12:41 |
| randomwalker | Anubis_be, cool.. hopefully a diff should produce meaningful results now | 12:41 |
| IndianGrl | how do i install icon packages in 7.04? | 12:41 |
| randomwalker | Anubis_be, and congrats on your first perl script :) | 12:41 |
| Anubis_be | randomwalker hehe thx :) | 12:41 |
| randomwalker | Anubis_be i assume that both files are sorted? | 12:42 |
| Pici | IndianGrl: Either drag the package over the theming window or extract them in ~/.icons/ | 12:42 |
| Rodolfo | zoom_: the way my window appears, I would like to make it less 'aggressive' | 12:42 |
| Rodolfo | zoom_: do you know what I mean? | 12:43 |
| zoom_ | yes | 12:43 |
| zoom_ | do you have th eadvanced desktop effect settings ? | 12:43 |
| Rodolfo | zoom_: yes I do | 12:44 |
| zoom_ | i am looking | 12:45 |
| Anubis_be | randomwalker well they are in the same format (all data on 1 line) | 12:45 |
| rodietze | hey I have a problem, when installing the last ubuntu 7.10, the installation stops when it can't detect my laptop screen or graphic card | 12:45 |
| Anubis_be | randomwalker only on some lines more spaces then on another line | 12:45 |
| rodietze | so I don't know what to do | 12:45 |
| randomwalker | Anubis_be, that might confuse diff. there's vimdiff which handles spaces better and is also sorta graphical | 12:45 |
| rodietze | I have the drivers for my graphic card | 12:46 |
| randomwalker | Anubis_be, but it's important that you sort both files first | 12:46 |
| leemk2390 | 한글은 안되나요? | 12:46 |
| Anubis_be | randomwalker how you mean sort ? | 12:46 |
| chazco | If my printer runs out of paper during a print job it will continue to print out the last page (when more paper is added) until power is disconnected... this only happens on Ubuntu. Any ideas? | 12:46 |

| rodietze | sheiBe I need help!!! | 12:47 |
| Anubis_be | randomwalker done | 12:47 |
| rodietze | what can I do if installation stops when it can't detect my laptop screen or graphic card?? | 12:48 |
| randomwalker | Anubis_be, ok, try vimdiff | 12:48 |
| zoom_ | Rodolfo, i haven t foud i m asking on #ubuntu-fr | 12:48 |
| rodietze | can I install my nvidia drivers to this temporarily system in the ram memory? | 12:48 |
| itguru | Can anyone recommend a LiveCD that does OpenVPN? | 12:48 |
| Rodolfo | zoom_: its ok i am googling for it, too | 12:48 |
| Anubis_be | randomwalker vimdiff filename1 ? or vimdiff filename1 filename2 | 12:49 |
| Rodolfo | but it seems there is nothing related to windows effects that can be set, in this case... | 12:49 |
| Pici | !ask | rodietze | 12:49 |
| ubotu | rodietze: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question -- All On One Line, so others can read it and follow it easily --. and if anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-) | 12:49 |
| rodietze | Pici ? | 12:50 |
| rodietze | I asked the question | 12:50 |
| rodietze | going to ask for the 3rd time actually | 12:50 |
| rodietze | oh ok | 12:50 |
| Anubis_be | randomwalker ok both files are now in vimdiff | 12:50 |
| randomwalker | Anubis_be, well, does it show you the similar parts? | 12:51 |
| Pici | rodietze: If you are trying to use the LiveCD and its failing when trying to detect the screen, you can try installing using the Alternate CD. | 12:51 |

I've run into problems installing the required packages, and noticed that my /etc/apt/sources.list has URLS for both Gutsy Gibbon and Dapper Drake. I've pasted the output of my command history into http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/52252/ and this is what had me start to be concerned about the state of the packages on this system. I w | 12:53 |
| randomwalker | Anubis_be, yeah the similar parts are supposed to be highlighted | 12:53 |
| Rodolfo | zoom_: are you sure it is on ccsm? | 12:53 |
| Anubis_be | randomwalker ah ok :) | 12:54 |
| Anubis_be | randomwalker I shall review it, thx for the tip! | 12:54 |
| zoom_ | Rodolfo, yes i think may be it isn t in global parameter but you may config each animation | 12:54 |
| Jack_Sparrow | godaddy: sources for both of those will certainly lead to trouble.. Will look at your link and try to direct you to the best help from there. | 12:54 |
| godaddy | Jack_Sparrow: thnx :-) | 12:55 |
| Rodolfo | zoom_: hold on i am looking at it.. | 12:55 |
| zoom_ | Rodolfo, you can set the duration time in ccsm | 12:55 |
| zoom_ | edit the animations options you ll see | 12:56 |

| Jack_Sparrow | godaddy: My first question is that it looks like you were trying to do a distro upgrade. Any you cant jump from dapper to gutsy | 12:58 |
| randomwalker | Anubis_be, vimdiff is a good starting point. if you have a rather large file then another perl quickie might be called for. good luck. | 12:58 |

| Le^stat | i can see them in IE7 | 12:59 |
| godaddy | Jack_Sparrow: correct. I logged in, ran aptitude update and aptitude dist-upgrade after determining the required packages to install for Zimbra ... | 12:59 |
| Rodolfo | zoom_: tell me where i can find it...duration time settings..? | 12:59 |
| IdleOne | Le^stat: are they java script? | 12:59 |
| Le^stat | probably | 12:59 |

| godaddy | would it be safe to remove the sources for Gutsy and then apt-update .. aptitude sit-upgrade? | 13:00 |
| Jack_Sparrow | godaddy: So you determined the packages you needed were in gutsy? so you added those sources and then dist-upgrade? | 13:00 |

| odder | Keigo-kun: you've already asked that question | 13:30 |
| th0r | gvsa123 when prompted enter the root password you defined, not your password. Then you can define the cron job as root, and won't need to use sudo or enter a password | 13:30 |
| Joe_ | jack_sparrow: so I noticed, hence I got it directly from Adobe and it worked fine... but the Nvidia drivers in the official repos are old as well and very much don't work with 4 monitors | 13:30 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Joe_: You are going for bleeding edge with that setup... It will take some work.. SOmething you added is not compatible. | 13:31 |
| strike | i want something to run even if noone logs on | 13:31 |
| Keigo-kun | odder: Oh really? | 13:31 |
| odder | Keigo-kun: well, type /msg ubotu !Repeat for more info | 13:31 |
| loja | ok | 13:31 |
| Joe_ | jack_sparrow: any help figuring out what is wrong would be appreciated, I need all 4 monitors for work. I finally got tired of windows and switched my last machine, the main work one, to Ubuntu... but the 4 monitors is part of the setup | 13:32 |
| Pici | !noroot | th0r | 13:32 |
| ubotu | th0r: We don't support a root password so don't suggest one unless you are going to be here 24/7 to help someone who has problems as a result of having one, many thanks ;-) | 13:32 |
| th0r | gvsa123 see....riles | 13:32 |
| strike | i have tried /etc/init.d/ has anyone got a command working in there? | 13:32 |
| Joe_ | At least for 6 months until I build my next machine... which will trump this one by a lot | 13:32 |
| gvsa123 | th0r: oh you mean i should edit the root crontab so that it is understood that it's the root commanding the cronjob and it won't prompt for password for tasks that require root privileges | 13:32 |
| Keigo-kun | I don't know how huge your screen is, but for me, my question was way off | 13:32 |
| Keigo-kun | no one will answer if they can't see my question | 13:32 |
| FackMisto | IdleOne ! | 13:32 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Joe_: There just isnt much I can do to help you. I would if I could... You said nothing helpful in the logs? | 13:32 |
| Pici | gvsa123: Theres no need to enable the root account to edit root's crontab. | 13:32 |
| th0r | gvsa123 reference Pici's response above | 13:32 |
| sluimers | My xmms and vlc won't play any music. Flash does. What could be the problem? | 13:32 |
| dreven_ | Jack_Sparrow: So assuming that I only installed one codec package and at the momemt have no problems should I just leave automatix installed and not touch it ever again? | 13:32 |
| Pici | gvsa123: just run `sudo crontab -e` | 13:32 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Joe_: No pattern to the lockups.. | 13:32 |
| IdleOne | FackMisto: yes? | 13:33 |
| odder | Keigo-kun: there's a guideline, if you've asked your question once, do not repeat it, better try to search the net | 13:33 |
| godaddy | IdleOne: "apt-get -V <packagename>" will show verbose version for upgraded and installed packages ... man apt-get for more. | 13:33 |
| Keigo-kun | odder: Unlike most idiots, I search internet BEFORE i aks here | 13:33 |
| Joe_ | jack_sparrow: nothing that I can tell, only thing is a warning in the Xorg that looks new, saying the GPU on screen 1 is incompatible and openGL is turned off on it | 13:33 |
| FackMisto | shee say`s me : the nx devices is not accesibile or the nx access was disable on host | 13:33 |
| FackMisto | IdleOne : say`s me : the nx devices is not accesibile or the nx access was disable on host | 13:33 |
| odder | Keigo-kun: unlike most people, you haven't msged ubotu | 13:33 |
| Jack_Sparrow | dreven_: The downside of that is that you will spend a great deal of time and energy getting your system just right. thenalong comes an update or upgrade and trashes your system/dependencies | 13:33 |
| Keigo-kun | odder: I have | 13:34 |
| sluimers | My xmms and vlc won't play any music. Flash does. What could be the problem? | 13:34 |
| misslecommander | i had installed the nvidia-gtk-new driver, enabled it, my freezes and lockups were occuring more often, real often | 13:34 |
| Joe_ | jack_sparrow: at first I thought it was just when VLC was running, but didn't happen this time either... only pattern I can see is seemingly high Xorg CPU usage(80% and higher) at the time of lock up | 13:34 |
| th0r | gvsa123 you might want to consider using a text file, I use ~/cron.txt. I enter the cron commands in that text file, then load it with 'crontab <filename>'. Makes changing the command and testing a lot easier | 13:34 |
| n00bie | i would like to create a shortcut for closing windows in xbindkeys, but what is the actual command for this? | 13:34 |
| misslecommander | i since then disabled it, more stable now | 13:34 |
| Keigo-kun | odder: "don't repeat question quickly" =/= "Don't repeat question" | 13:34 |
| Pici | odder: Please stop. There is no rule about asking a question twice. We only ask that it is not repeated constantly. | 13:34 |
| Pici | Keigo-kun: You're fine, ignore him. | 13:34 |
| IdleOne | FackMisto: you need to install the NX server on the host machine ( machine you want to connect to ) and the NX client on the client machine ( machine you connect from ) | 13:34 |
| sluimers | My xmms and vlc won't play any music. Flash does. What could be the problem? | 13:35 |
| odder | Pici: that's not fine | 13:35 |
| Pici | odder: I'm sorry? | 13:35 |
| godaddy | FackMisto: another place to look is your firewall rules perhaps? | 13:35 |
| n00bie | where can i find the file in which ubuntu stores the keyboard shortcuts ? | 13:35 |
| gvsa123 | th0r: but for sure i cannot automate installing updates for example using cronjobs? | 13:35 |
| odder | he's asked he's question at 14:26, and then at 14:30 (UTC -1, I suppose) | 13:35 |
| odder | his* | 13:36 |
| IdleOne | FackMisto: the NX client is usualy the windows computer. easy install. the NX server is usualy the linux machine that is a little more detailed and requires you install according to your OS'ess specifications | 13:36 |
| Lartza_ | Why I get message: "29: fpc: not found"? Fp-compiler and lazarus installed. | 13:36 |
| th0r | gvsa123 can't cron anything that requires input or passwords | 13:36 |
| l3dx | Combining a 120G and a 160G for RAID1, could I still use the remaining 40G on the 160G? | 13:36 |
| Pici | odder: Every 4 minutes seems reasonable to me. | 13:36 |
| godaddy | FackMisto: I've not used that doftware before, but often a firewall is overlooked when debuggin client-server network issues | 13:36 |
| Joe_ | jack_sparrow: and just did it again... music started skipping, everything locked up... and wasn't doing anything at the time | 13:36 |
| FackMisto | and what can i do !? | 13:37 |
| gvsa123 | th0r: i just read something awhile ago about automating the installation of security updates... wait i'll have a look again | 13:37 |
| Keigo-kun | odder: The point is keeping it visible since most IRC users idle and only check from time to time. If you post once every 30 minutes, you won't get answered ever. | 13:37 |
| th0r | gvsa123 but if the input is the same every time you can probably use a script or use an input file like 'command < inputfilename' | 13:37 |
| Lartza_ | and how to pach with subversion or esvn? | 13:37 |
| Jack_Sparrow | dreven_: You still here.. | 13:37 |
| odder | n00bie: try to have a look at system --> preferences --> keyboard shortcuts | 13:37 |
| IdleOne | godaddy: when doing the NX server install one of the steps is to open the ports | 13:37 |
| odder | n00bie: I don't remember the file name atm | 13:37 |
| IdleOne | godaddy: had he read the link he would of known that | 13:37 |
| godaddy | IdleOne: fair. I spoke out of turn :-) sorry. | 13:37 |
| AquaFox|Laptop | My mouse locks when I type. | 13:37 |
| IdleOne | godaddy: np :) was just letting you know :) | 13:37 |
| AquaFox|Laptop | How to fix this? | 13:37 |
| n00bie | odder, ok, the reason why i would like to see the file is to find out what the command for closing a window is | 13:38 |
| AquaFox|Laptop | This disrupts my gaming. | 13:38 |
| AquaFox|Laptop | Since I can't type and use mouse at the same time. | 13:38 |
| IdleOne | AquaFox|Laptop: normaly when you type you dont use the mouse at the same time so if it unlocks when done typing no issue | 13:38 |
| odder | n00bie: that's alt+f4 | 13:38 |
| Pici | Keigo-kun: Is this the first time that you're trying to install mysql, or is this a reinstall? | 13:38 |
| AquaFox|Laptop | IdleOne, I play games. | 13:38 |
| MrMist | I can't increase the resolution on my dell laptop.. I just updated to gibbon. Any tips ?? | 13:38 |
| IdleOne | AquaFox|Laptop: yeah just saw that | 13:38 |
| Keigo-kun | Pici: First time. I also tried reinstall it 2 times, same error. | 13:39 |
| misslecommander | i have something similiar, but not quite the same, when i click or type, the lockups occur more often. been stable for a while now, may be using certain apps | 13:39 |
| n00bie | odder, i mean a shell command | 13:39 |
| AquaFox|Laptop | IdleOne, any idea? | 13:39 |
| renliege | what do I do with this: svn://linux1.bitron.ch/wireless-applet | 13:39 |
| renliege | ?? | 13:39 |
| IdleOne | AquaFox|Laptop: none sorry | 13:39 |
| n00bie | odder, one that i can use in xbindkeys | 13:39 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Joe_: I understand the issue. By your own admission one of your gpus' is not compatible.. I dont have an answer, but I would start by looing into that. | 13:39 |
| odder | n00bie: well, have you tried using 'exit' or | 13:39 |
| odder | .. or 'quit'? | 13:40 |
| IdleOne | FackMisto: are you running ubuntu on the machine you want to connect to? | 13:40 |
| MrMist | please guys... I really need to solve this. Running 800x600 on my laptop isn't an option.... | 13:40 |
| renliege | anyone? | 13:40 |
| gvsa123 | th0r: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticSecurityUpdates how different is that? | 13:40 |
| IdleOne | !fixres | MrMist | 13:40 |

| renliege | what do I do with this "svn://linux1.bitron.ch/wireless-applet"? | 13:40 |
| renliege | is it a repo? | 13:40 |
| dreven_ | Jack_Sparrow: Yes still here just contemplating the possibilities I made a backup of my system before automatix in one big tar file in my root directory, it will be my first time reinstalling linux this way I am a newbie i've only been using linux for 5 days now | 13:40 |
| Joe_ | jack_sparrow: wait.. in syslog the same cron seems to run a few seconds to a few minutes before each freeze up | 13:40 |
| infidel | godaddy, Jack_Sparrow the answer was no.. only one type is needed. thank god for google | 13:41 |
| Lartza_ | renliege: to copy all files in directory to deirectory wireless-applet, write this to command line: svn co svn://linux1.bitron.ch/wireless-applet wireless-applet | 13:41 |
| odder | renliege: try to apt-get installing svn | 13:41 |
| Lartza_ | odder: it's subversion not svn | 13:41 |
| misslecommander | http://www.bitron.ch/software/wireless-applet.php | 13:41 |
| Jack_Sparrow | dreven_: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/52262/ is the only possibilty I can offer.. and it still may not work | 13:41 |
| IdleOne | have a good day folks | 13:41 |
| misslecommander | Wireless AppletSimple panel applet to easily configure wireless networks. | 13:41 |
| Joe_ | jack_sparrow: /USR/SBIN/CRON[7216]: (root) CMD ( cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.hourly) | 13:42 |
| odder | Lartza_: gah, I haven't seen your answer | 13:42 |
| th0r | gvsa123 give me a sec...but I know what is going on there. be right back | 13:42 |
| Lartza_ | odder: What was that supposed to mean? | 13:42 |
| Jack_Sparrow | infidel: Glad you got what you needed. | 13:42 |
| renliege | I need to install another manager for my wireless connection | 13:42 |
| gvsa123 | th0r: ok thanks | 13:42 |
| renliege | becasue the default on in Ubuntu does not work well with Atheros | 13:42 |
| odder | Lartza_: that if I have I wouldn't have written that | 13:43 |
| n00bie | odder, wont work | 13:43 |
| th0r | gvsa123 you see in the one line where it says '--assume=yes'? That bypasses the y/n prompts that aptitude usually presents for the user. | 13:43 |
| odder | n00bie: gimme a minute | 13:43 |
| godaddy | infidel: your question was "do I need both _or_ one" .. the answer was "one" yes? | 13:43 |
| MrMist | IdleOne: I'm not a total noob... I've edited xorg.conf... done this 100 times before. But it doesn't seem to work.. | 13:43 |
| Pici | Keigo-kun: Try this: `sudo apt-get remove --purge mysql-server-5.0` then try to install again | 13:43 |
| Lartza_ | this isn't an answer? "renliege: to copy all files in directory to deirectory wireless-applet, write this to command line: svn co svn://linux1.bitron.ch/wireless-applet wireless-applet" | 13:43 |
| th0r | gvsa123 many of the linux commands have such options to permit cron jobs and other automation | 13:44 |
| gvsa123 | th0r: so the passwd bypass has something to do with the program you run as a cronjob, not with crontab itself | 13:44 |
| renliege | Lartza_: I am installing subversion | 13:44 |
| Keigo-kun | Pici: Allright, i'll try it right away | 13:44 |
| renliege | Lartza_: where will it copy everything to? | 13:44 |
| dreven__ | Jack_Sparrow: I don't know if you sent me a message I lost my connection to the channel for some reason | 13:44 |
| gvsa123 | th0r: and the script is actually the apt-security-updates file, which in turn you run as a cronjob? | 13:44 |
| Jack_Sparrow | dreven_: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/52262/ is the only possibilty I can offer.. and it still may not work | 13:44 |
| Joe_ | jack_sparrow: if that's nothing... then what to look at with the video card? It's complaining about the Quadro 280 NVS... but I don't remember seeing that warning in Xorg before... when I first set up it it worked great and glxgears ran on each monitor | 13:45 |
| Lartza_ | renliege: svn co (svn address) (folder to copy contents) | 13:45 |
| sluimers | My xmms and vlc won't play any music. xmms give an "libxmms-flac.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64" error.Sound in flash does work. What could be the problem? | 13:45 |
| MrMist | brb... gotta restart | 13:45 |
| th0r | gvsa123 right...if you run the cron job under the root account then you won't be prompted for a password. Notice that the page starts by opening gedit with gksudo ...that means the cron job will run as root, not as a user | 13:45 |
| renliege | Lartza_: oh ok | 13:45 |
| Eyemean | hi, can some one recommend fbest way to send large files about 700meg to a friend | 13:45 |
| Lartza_ | renliege: and folder will come up to home directory | 13:45 |
| ikonia | !blacklist > ikonia | 13:45 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Joe_: What size ower supply are you running and how many hard drives etc? | 13:45 |
| Jack_Sparrow | power | 13:45 |
| Keigo-kun | Pici, i got this: "E: Could not get lock /var/cache/apt/archives/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable) | 13:45 |
| Keigo-kun | E: Unable to lock the download directory" | 13:45 |
| infidel | Eyemean, what kind of time frame? | 13:46 |
| godaddy | MrMist: as a non-noob what do your logfiles say? | 13:46 |
| odder | n00bie: looks like there's something about that on the Net: http://linux-trackball.dreamhosters.com/ | 13:46 |
| Joe_ | jack_sparrow: 500W, 3 drives, 1 DVD/CD burner, 4G ram, 1 Operton dual core (OC currently disabled so running at stock 1.8Ghz, normally OC to 2.35 but dropped it back down to see if that was it) | 13:47 |
| gvsa123 | th0r: i see... so i can also configure a cronjob to install all updates automatically... | 13:47 |
| Eyemean | infidel, well really as quick as possible | 13:47 |
| Lartza_ | Why I get message: "29: fpc: not found"? Fp-compiler and lazarus installed. | 13:47 |
| th0r | gvsa123 and notice that the script created is stored in /etc/cron.weekly, which means that script will be run weekly automatically. | 13:47 |
| Eyemean | infidel can be 2day or 2mroow i guess | 13:47 |
| th0r | gvsa123 probably...using the same tricks | 13:47 |
| infidel | Eyemean, setup ftp server | 13:47 |
| Joe_ | jack_sparrow: used to run with a 450W under windows and did't seem to be an issue... | 13:48 |
| Pici | Keigo-kun: Are you running it as sudo? | 13:48 |
| renliege | does anyone know of another good network manager for Ubuntu? | 13:48 |
| Pici | Keigo-kun: Or do you have another package manager open? | 13:48 |
| Keigo-kun | Pici: Jesus, I might have missed that O.o hold on | 13:48 |
| Eyemean | i did think f that some time ago, but i got nowhere with it | 13:48 |
| Keigo-kun | Pici: Ah, my package manager was open, trying it again | 13:48 |
| Eyemean | i had no idea what to do and walk throughs were kind cmplicated for me, infidel | 13:48 |
| infidel | Eyemean, that's the best way i know of | 13:48 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Joe_: You understand why I would want to check.. 450 even under windows would be marginal. http://www.journeysystems.com/?powercalc | 13:49 |

| infidel | !ftpd | 13:49 |
| sluimers | My xmms and vlc won't play any music. xmms give an "libxmms-flac.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64" error.Sound in flash does work. What could be the problem? | 13:49 |

| Pici | Keigo-kun: Yep. | 13:49 |
| Eyemean | infidel, is a software that makes it easy? and do i have to have to create a website link or something like that | 13:49 |
| Joe_ | jack_sparrow: yeah, I had thought of that... 500W was the largest I could find last time I went to Yongsan, but it was Sunday and 90% of the stores were closed | 13:49 |
| renliege | anyone? | 13:49 |
| gvsa123 | th0r: i see... thanks.. i'll read more about this... but the point here is that the actual commands you want is inside an executable file (the scripts).. crontabs just runs them by your specifications? | 13:50 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Joe_: Run that calc... see how close you are | 13:50 |
| infidel | Eyemean, do you dual boot? | 13:50 |
| MasterShrek | renliege, you :) | 13:50 |
| MasterShrek | i have yet to find a network manager that does a better/faster job than i do lol | 13:50 |
| Eyemean | yes infidel, windows xp and gutsy | 13:50 |
| renliege | MasterShrek: harhar | 13:51 |
| JuJuBee | What is the trick to updating mysql-server ? Every time I try using adept, it fails. Tells me there was an error commiting changes. | 13:51 |
| th0r | gvsa123 most often...but understand that anything that can be run on the command line can be run as a cron job....so it doesn't have to be a script if it is a one line command | 13:51 |
| MasterShrek | something funny about that? im serious | 13:51 |
| misslecommander | lol | 13:51 |
| th0r | gvsa123 you would only need the script to execute a series of commands as a set | 13:51 |
| MarcoPau | using k9copy, if I say save the iso image into another partition it complains it's not local, althou it's on the same disc | 13:51 |
| === dreven_ is now known as dreven | ||
| MasterShrek | JuJuBee, does it give you an error? try sudo apt-get upgrade mysql-server from the command line | 13:51 |
| infidel | Eyemean, use a windows ftp server you should be able to find one on download.com and they are pretty easy to setup passworded | 13:51 |
| gvsa123 | th0r: oh crontab only accepts one liners? and i understand there has to be a vacant line at the end? | 13:51 |
| renliege | MasterShrek: sure thing boss..... | 13:51 |
| gvsa123 | th0r: i see | 13:52 |
| dreven | Jack_Sparrow: I just did what you said what does it mean when it says REPLACED | 13:52 |
| Eyemean | ok cheers infidel will have a look | 13:52 |

| h1st0 | marko-_-: its checking the cd first for amarok | 13:55 |
| Joe_ | jack_sparrow: so I take it you are thinking not enough power? | 13:55 |
| JuJuBee | MasterShrek : that failed. | 13:55 |
| h1st0 | marko-_-: you can edit the /etc/apt/sources.list and comment out the top two cdrom lines to stop that. | 13:56 |
| MasterShrek | JuJuBee, the fact that it failed helps me in no way to figure out why | 13:56 |
| h1st0 | marko-_-: as long as you have internet. | 13:56 |
| Keigo-kun | Pici: Yeah. "invoke-rc.d: initscript mysql, action "start" failed." | 13:56 |
| JuJuBee | MasterShrek : wish I could give you more info, but it only said *Stopping MySQL database server mysqld [fail] | 13:57 |
| marko-_- | h1st0: I have internet yes why | 13:57 |
| Joe_ | jack_sparrow: I can always go out and pick up a 750 or 1KW to test, worst case I got the PSU I'll need for my new computer early | 13:58 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Joe_: It is something I would really take a close look at.. yes.. but one of many factors.. and I have no good answers for you... | 13:58 |
| h1st0 | marko-_-: then you can tell it not to use the cdrom | 13:58 |
| MasterShrek | JuJuBee, hmm, im not really sure how you would stop the process then, i dont use ubuntu anymore, but generally things are the same in any distro. try sudo killall mysql then try to stop it | 13:58 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Joe_: All I can offer is a sympathetic ear.. if that helps | 13:58 |

| Eyemean | infidel, do i need to create one from a site or something, thats the problem i had last time, wasnt sure how to get that sorted | 13:59 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Joe_: 4 stilcks is 100, your two video cards another 125 to 150, your 3 hard drives another 75 your dvd burner a bit more.. it all adds up.. | 13:59 |
| JuJuBee | h1st0 : doesn't work. | 13:59 |
| marko-_- | h1st0: what should i do ? | 13:59 |
| Pici | Keigo-kun: Do you have any other mysql servers installed? | 13:59 |
| infidel | the site will be your ip address | 13:59 |
| h1st0 | marko-_-: What were you saying about your /home partition before? | 14:00 |
| Keigo-kun | Pici: No. Unless they were installed WITH ubuntu 7.10. | 14:00 |

If I can get this a little more stable for about 6 months I'll be good, after that it gets down graded to a dual monitor download/movie machine and I get my new toy... still debating between two 8800GTX or ATI...

| Eyemean | cheers infidel | 14:01 |
| h1st0 | marko-_-: What is the exact error you are getting when you try to install it from command line? | 14:01 |
| Pici | Keigo-kun: Unless you installed the server's lamp install, no, it wouldnt have come with it. | 14:01 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Joe_: Saying they are opening up their drivers is one thing. getting it dome has been a bit slower. | 14:01 |
| infidel | Eyemean, it's really not hard. | 14:01 |
| Jack_Sparrow | done | 14:01 |
| JuJuBee | MasterShrek : when I try to restart the mysql server, I get the following : error: 'Access denied for user 'debian-sys-maint'@'localhost' (using password: YES)' | 14:02 |

| MasterShrek | JuJuBee, are you using sudo to do that? | 14:02 |
| marko-_- | h1st0: it just says that there's no package for that program... and that's weird :s | 14:02 |
| Keigo-kun | Pici: I did not :/. I installed Apache2,all depends. Then php5, all depends. Then mysql all depends both client and server. Then I installed the php5-mysql thing. | 14:02 |
| JuJuBee | yes | 14:02 |
| h1st0 | marko-_-: its definately there. Try apt-cache search amarok | 14:02 |
| ActionParsnip | hey all | 14:02 |
| muniek | hello, can anyone help me with MSGFMT? i was looking up in google, but it didn't help me | 14:02 |
| marko-_- | h1st0: did and it doesn't find nothing | 14:03 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Joe_: Wish I had your budget for hardware. Let us know if we can help... | 14:03 |
| MasterShrek | JuJuBee, do: sudo su and then try, but be careful you are dropping to root shell and it could be hazardous to your system's health lol | 14:03 |

| Joe_ | jack_sparrow: heh, active duty army pays the bills, freelance programming buys the toys ;) I'll grab a new PSU when I get off shift and see how it goes | 14:03 |
| JuJuBee | MasterShrek: still failed. | 14:03 |
| marko-_- | but h1st0 do you know if i want to install from add/remove it says it's not for my system that's weird! :s | 14:03 |
| bazhang | muniek: what is msgfmt? | 14:03 |
| marko-_- | (15:03:38) bazhang: marko-_-: do you have any repos enabled? <-- what do you mean by that? | 14:03 |

| Joe_ | jack_sparrow: yeah, I keep an eye on temps... next machine is going liquid | 14:04 |
| muniek | bazhang: in fact, i am not sure. I am newbie at Linux, but during ./configure Pidgin i get an error with that | 14:04 |
| h1st0 | !dualboot > Zermelo, Zermelo Read the private message from ubotu. | 14:04 |
| bazhang | marko-_-: open up synaptic package manager--can you find it? | 14:04 |
| ActionParsnip | Zermelo, you need to unpartition the space for Ubuntu, the installer will then see it and offer to use it | 14:05 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Zermelo: careful that existing second partition is not vista and your restore partition | 14:05 |
| marko-_- | bazhang: amarok isn't find there | 14:05 |
| ActionParsnip | Zermelo, listen to Jack_Sparrow too :) | 14:05 |
| bazhang | muniek: how did you find/install pidgin? | 14:05 |
| JuJuBee | MasterShrek : I tried mysqladmin -u{root_username} -p{root_password} shutdown and it worked. | 14:05 |
| Zermelo | its not a restore partition | 14:05 |
| h1st0 | bazhang: amarok is in component main so hopefully he has that inabled | 14:05 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Joe_: Nice talking with you. Welcome to Ubuntu | 14:05 |
| Zermelo | its a data partition, the restore partition is 8GB | 14:05 |
| MasterShrek | cool JuJuBee now try to update it | 14:05 |
| h1st0 | marko-_-: System > Administration > Software Sources | 14:05 |
| JuJuBee | Done. Thanks. | 14:06 |
| marko-_- | h1st0: i didn't changed nothing from my sources.list... :s | 14:06 |
| Zermelo | the patition is like 70GB | 14:06 |
| Pici | Keigo-kun: Take a look at this: perhaps it can help: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=665504 | 14:06 |
| bazhang | marko-_-: did you enable the necessary repositories in synaptic (should be first four) and disable the cd; then hit reload and then finally search for amarok | 14:06 |
| marko-_- | bazhang: i didn't did that | 14:06 |
| ActionParsnip | Zermelo, then if you unpartition the space, you can install ubuntu to it and Grab will detect the XP install and setup dual boot for you | 14:06 |
| muniek | bazhang i downloaded tar.bz2 package, I gnziped it and i try to make ./configure... | 14:06 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Zermelo: Just trying to make sure you dont overwrite something you want to keep | 14:06 |
| bazhang | h1st0: one would hope :} | 14:06 |
| h1st0 | marko-_-: make sure (main) is checked | 14:06 |

| bazhang | muniek: this is in gutsy? | 14:07 |
| Zermelo | i have recovery CDs, so I wouldn't mind that much losing it, just for the time | 14:07 |
| JanCG | anrienord, Shift-Ctrl-U + hex number | 14:07 |
| Zermelo | so essentially, just tell ubuntu to use the second partition, and it will set up the dual boot? if so thanks | 14:07 |
| muniek | bazhang: it is, but old one. I need new for plugin i need to use | 14:07 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Zermelo: Sounds good... | 14:07 |
| Zermelo | thanks then | 14:07 |
| bazhang | muniek: to do what? | 14:07 |
| ActionParsnip | Zermelo, unpartition the place you want ubuntu | 14:07 |
| ActionParsnip | Zermelo, cos Ubuntu cant be installed on NTFS | 14:08 |
| Zermelo | on thanks | 14:08 |
| Zermelo | *ok | 14:08 |
| marko-_- | oh god h1st0 i think i know xD | 14:08 |
| Jack_Sparrow | ActionParsnip: He can tell it to use an existing partition and it will reformat it to ext3 | 14:08 |
| muniek | plugin i need let me to connect to Tlen newtork, it is polish messaging network | 14:08 |
| h1st0 | Zermelo: basically leave free space on the drive and let the installer handle the rest. | 14:08 |

| bazhang | muniek: they might be able to help you in #ubuntu-pl with that particular bit | 14:09 |
| MasterShrek | marko-_-, that doesnt sound good, go to system > administration > software sources and enable the first 4 | 14:09 |
| abhi | during booting ubuntu 7.10 the screen becomes sync out of range. how to solve this problem? | 14:09 |
| ActionParsnip | Jack_Sparrow, I've always done it that wasy but if it can reformat it then cool. It just seems more graceful (to me) for ubuntu to drop into a hole in the rive rather than reformat an existing partition | 14:09 |
| bazhang | MasterShrek: thanks--that is what I said as well :} | 14:09 |
| marko-_- | they are enabled MasterShrek | 14:09 |
| muniek | bazhang: yea, they should, but noone reply :(, anyway thanks, I'll try again | 14:09 |
| Jack_Sparrow | muniek: getdebs has the new version of pidgin.. just remember to remove the old one first | 14:09 |
| ActionParsnip | abhi, is it ok once its booted? | 14:09 |
| MasterShrek | marko-_-, then they shouldnt all be comment out in /etc/apt/sources.list | 14:10 |
| marko-_- | ok | 14:10 |
| marko-_- | i got it | 14:10 |
| marko-_- | i changed the sources.list with http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic/ this | 14:10 |

| abhi | ActionParsnip: no | 14:10 |
| muniek | Jack_Sparrow: ok, i'll try | 14:10 |
| marko-_- | wtf | 14:10 |
| marko-_- | it stays the same :s | 14:10 |
| bazhang | marko-_-: now hit reload in synaptic, or sudo apt-get update in the terminal | 14:10 |

| bazhang | is there a #deluge channel? | 14:13 |
| MasterShrek | interesting chrislees, ive seen this error before, but it was on kubuntu 7.04 on my friends ps3, with 7.10 it worked fine | 14:13 |
| renliege | ActionParsnip: because the gnome network manager robs me of 20-40% or my cards range | 14:13 |
| MasterShrek | chrislees, i dont know for sure if its a known problem with ffmpeg, i havent used ubuntu in a few months | 14:13 |
| h1st0 | chrislees: there version of ffmpeg is different. | 14:13 |
| renliege | ActionParsnip: any thoughts? | 14:14 |

| alison | pici: | 14:22 |
| alison | is there a secure delete for linux? | 14:22 |

| traiani | I've created an ubuntu VMware image to distribute some software ... is there a quick way to trim down the installation size? Obvious files/packages to remove? | 14:23 |
| renliege | ActionParsnip: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/52269/ | 14:24 |
| ActionParsnip | renliege, ok thats all cool | 14:24 |
| renliege | hmmm | 14:25 |
| renliege | ok | 14:25 |
| ActionParsnip | renliege, you could add the info to that file manually if you want | 14:25 |
| MasterShrek | traiani, using the alternate installer cd would probably be the best option, i think there is a way to choose packages using that if i remember correctly | 14:25 |
| komputes | bazhang: Have you tried it with those instruction on Gutsy, I'm asking since it didn't work for me, the instructions are outdated or a particular package is broken | 14:25 |

| ActionParsnip | renliege, sudo wlan0 down; sudo wlan0 up | 14:30 |
| ActionParsnip | renliege, yes | 14:30 |
| renliege | ActionParsnip: and I just leave all the eth entries alone | 14:30 |
| ActionParsnip | renliege, no, we want them commented out, then the wirleless manager will add the right entry | 14:30 |

| RenatoHS | komputes | 14:34 |
| RenatoHS | The principle would be a test with a printer HP4000. But must learn to make the driver in several models of printers. | 14:34 |
| komputes | Charlesps: What do you mean by "extrange list of softwares" | 14:34 |
| Charlesps | but I don't see the advisories in Ubuntu security or by email | 14:34 |
| colsfasdf | i added another hd w/ windoze and I want to add a grub entry to boot it. how to do that? | 14:34 |
| MasterShrek | alison, sudo apt-get update then sudo apt-get upgrade | 14:35 |
| alison | thank you | 14:35 |
| ActionParsnip | renliege, ok now you have removed the previous wireless config | 14:35 |
| ActionParsnip | renliege, you can reconfigure it using the wireless manager | 14:36 |

| komputes | bazhang: any update on making a custom usplash? | 14:37 |
| MasterShrek | !brokenflash | alison | 14:37 |
| ubotu | alison: 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. | 14:37 |
| alison | i get an error about codec? | 14:37 |
| nox-Hand | What's the best screen recorder that uses minimal juice? | 14:37 |
| alison | so i searched for new codec, and installed those... but no luck yet | 14:37 |
| MasterShrek | alison, read what ubotu told you | 14:37 |
| MasterShrek | nox-Hand, i always used xvidcap | 14:38 |
| RenatoHS | komputes yes, the print models is compatible, but how i make the driver? | 14:38 |
| MasterShrek | !info xvidcap | 14:38 |
| ubotu | Package xvidcap does not exist in gutsy | 14:38 |
| alison | oh my god | 14:38 |
| MasterShrek | hmm | 14:38 |
| L7 | ikonia, Thanks, do you know if it needs to be configured first? (As I google) | 14:38 |
| alison | i wish i could sue for that :) | 14:38 |

| renliege | I did sudo wlan0 down | 14:39 |
| renliege | but I got sudo: wlan0: command not found | 14:39 |
| RenatoHS | Do you have any tips? | 14:39 |
| renliege | anyone there? | 14:40 |
| th0r | drive that should be /join | 14:40 |
| MasterShrek | !info hplip | RenatoHS | 14:40 |
| alison | can i also do "sudo apt-get install shred" ? | 14:40 |
| ubotu | renatohs: hplip: HP Linux Printing and Imaging System (HPLIP). In component main, is optional. Version 2.7.7.dfsg.1-0ubuntu5 (gutsy), package size 283 kB, installed size 688 kB | 14:40 |
| drive | ok, thx | 14:40 |
| Pici | alison: shred should be installed by default iirc. | 14:40 |
| th0r | renliege sudo ifdown wlan0 | 14:40 |
| alison | where is my shred located? | 14:40 |
| bazhang | komputes: which part of the official ubuntu customisation howto not work for you--that seems to the best source out there currently--not a big priority apparently at the moment | 14:40 |
| MasterShrek | renliege, sudo ifconfig wlan0 down i think is what you are looking for | 14:40 |
| MasterShrek | either one will do the same thing | 14:40 |
| Pici | alison: its a command line program. | 14:40 |
| alison | oh i see | 14:41 |
| naxa | how can i auto connect to the wireless network at startup? | 14:41 |
| alison | so if i wanted to delete myphoto on my deskstop | 14:41 |
| antipop | does anyone uses blender it crashes and all system hangs up | 14:41 |
| alison | how do i go about doing that pici? | 14:41 |
| RenatoHS | ubotu Sorry, i no understand, What is the usefulness of this application? | 14:41 |
| MrMist | How do I enable glx ? | 14:41 |
| MrMist | or rather direct rendering ? | 14:41 |
| nox-Hand | RenatoHS: ubotu is a bot | 14:41 |
| MasterShrek | antipop, do you have video card drivers installed? | 14:41 |
| Pici | alison: open a terminal, type: cd ~/Desktop then: shred myphoto | 14:41 |
| antipop | no | 14:41 |
| alison | oh | 14:41 |
| MasterShrek | MrMist, do you have video card drivers installed? | 14:41 |
| RenatoHS | lol i do no | 14:41 |
| alison | cool | 14:41 |
| alison | anyother programs other than shred? | 14:42 |
| Pici | alison: For securely deleting stuff? I dont know. | 14:42 |
| alison | yeah | 14:42 |
| === chaky_ is now known as chaky | ||
| MrMist | MasterShrek: Yeah... I guess. I'm running the nvidia drivers, as far as I can tell | 14:42 |
| RenatoHS | komputes do you have any tips? | 14:42 |
| pr0nGuy | Is there any good programs for mixing music? Are there any that also run on Windows? | 14:42 |
| alison | i know windows has "eraser" but not sure if they released it for linux | 14:42 |
| th0r | alison I think wipe is available also | 14:42 |
| alison | i'll try wipe | 14:42 |
| renliege | ok... here is the thing.... network manager daemon is the culprit ... so it won't matter if I have either the KDE or Gnome frontend installed....... | 14:42 |
| MasterShrek | MrMist, lsmod | grep nvidia will tell you for sure, but if its loaded, you shold have it enabled already | 14:42 |
| naxa | how can i add a user to be in the suduers file? | 14:42 |
| alison | i want a right click rather than command line | 14:42 |
| jrib | alison: make sure you read the man pages for those commands | 14:43 |
| alison | i will | 14:43 |
| MasterShrek | naxa, add them to the admin group | 14:43 |
| naxa | MasterShrek: how can i do that? | 14:43 |
| h3r0z3r0 | hello | 14:43 |
| jrib | alison: because it's not actually secure on ext3... | 14:43 |
| h3r0z3r0 | hello | 14:43 |
| h3r0z3r0 | hello | 14:43 |
| h3r0z3r0 | hello | 14:43 |
| h3r0z3r0 | hello | 14:43 |
| MasterShrek | naxa, using gnome? | 14:43 |
| FloodBot1 | h3r0z3r0: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 14:43 |
| jrib | h3r0z3r0: stop | 14:43 |
| MasterShrek | h3r0z3r0, stop | 14:43 |
| MrMist | MasterShrek: hmm... lsmod doesn't reflect it | 14:43 |
| naxa | MasterShrek: oh. you mean the group admin in etc/groups? yeah i use gnome | 14:43 |
| plux | h3r0z3r0: stop spamming | 14:43 |
| h3r0z3r0 | :( | 14:43 |
| renliege | but the interesting thing is that in KDE (Kubuntu) wlassistant can run independently whereas in Gnome (Ubuntu) it seems to be useless in that regard | 14:44 |
| h3r0z3r0 | i am just saying hello to everyone :( | 14:44 |
| traiani | say it once | 14:44 |
| MasterShrek | MrMist, check your /etc/X11/xorg.conf and see what driver is being loaded, nv, vesa or nvidia most likely | 14:44 |
| bobbob1016 | I have a widescreen monitor, and the output from ubuntu is slightly offscreen, there is a small black bar on the left. If I do the auto adjust, it messes with the other computer's output on the KVM. Is there any way I can adjust how X11 outputs, as in push it to the left a bit? | 14:44 |
| MrMist | MasterShrek: But: "cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep nvidia -i" gives me (II) NV: driver for NVIDIA chipsets: RIVA 128, RIVA TNT, RIVA TNT2, | 14:44 |
| Pici | h3r0z3r0: Theres over 1000 people here, you don't need to greet them individually. | 14:44 |
| h3r0z3r0 | no ther is to many people ;) | 14:44 |
| bazhang | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=629848 alison something also about kgpg in there | 14:44 |
| MasterShrek | naxa, yea editting /etc/groups would probably do it | 14:44 |
| traiani | "there are too many people" | 14:44 |
| traiani | :) | 14:44 |
| renliege | so the real question is, how to get wlassistant working in Ubuntu independently ? | 14:44 |
| Arelis | Hi all. I had the basics of Python, Ruby, PHP, Bash and some other scripting languages under control, about 3 years ago. I stopped programming since then, though, and forgot many aspects of programming. In this day and age, what is the best, lightest, most portable, simple, and easy to read for human eyes programming language available? | 14:44 |
| Jack_Sparrow | h3r0z3r0: How may we help you. | 14:44 |
| MasterShrek | MrMist, what nvidia card is it? | 14:44 |
| th0r | alison you should be able to define a 'send to' in the file manager for either wipe or shred to make it right click | 14:44 |
| antipop | my video card ati radeon 9200 SE I don't know how to install drivers? | 14:44 |
| JC_Denton_ | this should give everyone read permissions, right? sudo chmod -v -R 666 "/mnt/hda1/" | 14:45 |
| CaBlGuY | allrighty, I figured out my audio issues last night. now, all I need to do is get flash workin and I'll be good.. anyone wanna help?? | 14:45 |
| naxa | MasterShrek, ok. don't you know how can i connect automatically to the wireless network? | 14:45 |
| jrib | naxa: or 'sudo adduser USER_NAME admin' | 14:45 |
| MrMist | It's a quadro card on a Dell laptop | 14:45 |
| naxa | jrib, thank you! :) | 14:45 |
| bobbob1016 | antipop, You don't really need the drivers for a 9200. | 14:45 |
| MrMist | MasterShrek: It's a quadro card on a Dell Laptop | 14:45 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !ati > antipop | 14:45 |
| deathshrimp317 | JC_Denton_ that gives everyone write permissions as well | 14:45 |
| jrib | JC_Denton_: what filesystem? | 14:45 |
| MasterShrek | naxa, other than adding commands to the /etc/rc.local script, not really | 14:45 |
| naxa | MasterShrek, I see. | 14:45 |
| Oleander | Question: i wanna install linux (either ubuntu or kubuntu - honestly done know differences yes). I have 3 ide drives. two currently used on empty and ready for linux . should i install linux on its own drive or parition it on windows one? | 14:45 |
| MasterShrek | MrMist, i would suggest installing the proprietary nvidia driver, through the restricted drivers manager | 14:46 |
| alison | what other programs for msn messenger other than pidgin? | 14:46 |
| JC_Denton_ | jrib ext3 but even after executing the command I cannot read any files, let alone write | 14:46 |
| MrMist | MasterShrek: ehm... what ? How.... ? | 14:46 |
| bobbob1016 | antipop, But if you must, System -> Administration -> Restricted Drivers Manger should do it. | 14:46 |
| traiani | alison: amsn? | 14:46 |
| ActionParsnip | Oleander, one uses Gnome desktop the other uses KDE | 14:46 |
| alison | amsn, what's that | 14:46 |
| CaBlGuY | anyone?? anyone at all feeling lucky :p | 14:46 |
| alison | python? | 14:46 |
| MasterShrek | Oleander, thats totally up to you | 14:46 |

| genii | Oleander: When there is a choice, it's generally just better practice to install each OS on their own hd | 14:47 |
| alison | amsn looks nice | 14:47 |
| naxa | MasterShrek, I do know there is a relatively easy way but noone seems to know it and i cannot fidn the guy who told me | 14:47 |

| CaBlGuY | !nspluginwrapper | 14:49 |

| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about nspluginwrapper - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 14:49 |

| === alison is now known as ally_xoxo | ||
| MasterShrek | Andycasss, im sure there is | 14:51 |
| MasterShrek | !cron | Andycasss | 14:51 |
| ubotu | Andycasss: cron is a way to schedule execution of software/scripts. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CronHowto - There is also a decent Howto at http://www.tech-geeks.org/contrib/mdrone/cron&crontab-howto.htm | 14:51 |
| genii | mrMister_: Sorry, misdirect | 14:52 |
| genii | antipop: The older radeons (not high-def tpes) use non-restricted drivers which are with xserver-xorg-video-ati | 14:52 |
| jrib | Andycasss: why? out of curiousity | 14:52 |
| ally_xoxo | each day i use ubuntu, the more i start to like it | 14:52 |
| komputes | RenatoHS: http://www.freesoftwaremagazine.com/articles/drivers_linux | 14:52 |
| CaBlGuY | jrib: wait, I typed it wrong.. here is the output.. Linux ubuntu 2.6.22-14-generic #1 SMP Tue Dec 18 05:28:27 UTC 2007 x86_64 GNU/Linux | 14:52 |
| jrib | CaBlGuY: ok, you realize that on 32bit you would not have this extra hassle? | 14:53 |
| MrMist | MasterShrek: Dodn't work :( I'm back on nv | 14:53 |
| komputes | Can anyone help me create a custom usplash for gutsy, if anyone is interested in doing it with me, please PM me | 14:53 |
| Andycasss | jrib: So that I would have up to date music list on my tuxbox | 14:53 |
| ally_xoxo | hey i have a question: can you run visual studio 6.0 on ubuntu? | 14:53 |
| MasterShrek | MrMist, sorry to hear that...you might be s.o.l | 14:53 |
| hacker2k8 | i forgot the dependencies of the kopete to run the webcam | 14:53 |
| MrMist | MasterShrek: Didn't work ;) | 14:53 |
| jrib | CaBlGuY: in any case, install the nspluginwrapper package with: sudo aptitude install nspluginwrapper | 14:53 |
| CaBlGuY | jrib: indeed but, I cannot run 32 bit on 64bit AMD CPU.. can i? | 14:53 |
| ally_xoxo | if you can't, how would you compile projects? | 14:53 |
| MrMist | MasterShrek: s.o.l ? | 14:53 |
| MasterShrek | ally_xoxo, not natively | 14:53 |
| jrib | CaBlGuY: yes, you can | 14:53 |
| MasterShrek | shit outta luck | 14:53 |
| ally_xoxo | vmware is the best way to go? | 14:53 |
| MasterShrek | ally_xoxo, virtualbox in my opinion | 14:53 |
| CaBlGuY | jrib: I can?? :O | 14:53 |
| RenatoHS | komputes tks, you have msn? | 14:53 |
| ally_xoxo | hmmm | 14:53 |
| zionpsyfer | ally_xoxo: Agreed with MasterShrek, virtualbox ftw | 14:54 |
| ally_xoxo | why not use gcc or lcc instead mastershrek? | 14:54 |
| jrib | CaBlGuY: yep, I would definitely recommend a reinstall with 32bit if this is a fresh install of ubuntu | 14:54 |
| MrMist | MasterShrek: Hmm... well... thing is... I'm not really dependent on running GLX... as long as OpenGL programs can run with accelleration and such | 14:54 |
| antipop | genii: what is it xserver-xorg-video-ati? | 14:54 |
| MasterShrek | ally_xoxo, that would work fine too, but as far as visual studio, you wont be able to run it in linux without special software or a virtual machine | 14:54 |
| * ActionParsnip seconds 32bit installs of Linux | 14:54 | |
| ally_xoxo | hmm yeah | 14:54 |
| ActionParsnip | ally_xoxo, you might want to look at Cedega | 14:54 |
| MasterShrek | MrMist, ive never been very good with glx opengl and all that, it usually just works for me lol | 14:55 |
| ally_xoxo | i never had any experiance with virtualbox, is it similar to vmware? | 14:55 |
| ActionParsnip | ally_xoxo, not sure about vsual studio though | 14:55 |
| CaBlGuY | jrib: yea, it's a fresh install but, I was not aware that I could use 32 bit.. I was under the impresion that I HAD to use 64 bit because I have a AMD Athlon 64 bit.. | 14:55 |
| zionpsyfer | ally_xoxo: which language? | 14:55 |
| MrMist | MasterShrek: Heh... well,,, this is a 512 MB quadro card, so it's very good for OpenGL | 14:55 |
| MasterShrek | cedega is for games, youd probably have a better chance with wine, but even that i doubt is going to work | 14:55 |
| ActionParsnip | CaBlGuY, did you have XP before? | 14:55 |
| jrib | CaBlGuY: nope, the 64 bit cpu can run both 64bit and 32bit | 14:55 |
| MrMist | MasterShrek: And I'm programming OpenGL, so I really need it to work | 14:55 |
| komputes | RenatoHS: You can contact me on ubuntu forums | 14:55 |
| deathshrimp317 | wine is much better for games imo than cedega even, gneerally better at everything | 14:56 |
| CaBlGuY | jrib: now, I wanna be absolutly positive that I can do this so, your telling me beyond any shadow of a doubt that I can run 32 bit on that processor with no issues.. | 14:56 |
| komputes | RenatoHS: and jabber | 14:56 |
| genii | antipop: it is the driver for ati cards which comes standard with the xserver | 14:56 |
| ally_xoxo | zionpsyfer c/C++ | 14:56 |
| jrib | CaBlGuY: yes, feel free to try the live cd first of course | 14:56 |
| MasterShrek | i dont even know if cedega is maintained anymore | 14:56 |
| CaBlGuY | ActionParsnip: I've been using Linux for a few years now there thanks.. ;) | 14:56 |
| chimpo | yeah amb 64 bit is backwards compatible | 14:56 |
| ActionParsnip | CaBlGuY, XP initially was 32bit and ran on AMD64 happily | 14:56 |
| hacker2k8 | guys pls help my webcam for kopete is not working what will i do? | 14:56 |
| RenatoHS | ok Komputes, you me add? renatohs@hotmail.com ? | 14:56 |
| chimpo | Only issue you will gety CaBlGuY, is running flash of firefox 64bit | 14:56 |
| ActionParsnip | CaBlGuY, I run Kubuntu 7.10 on AMD64 Semperon 3000 AM2 | 14:57 |
| MasterShrek | and java + ffox | 14:57 |
| CaBlGuY | jrib: THANKS MAN!! *runs and starts the 32 bit install!!! :p | 14:57 |
| genii | antipop: The 7200 thru 9800 work best with the radeon driver from there | 14:57 |
| jacquesdupontd | hey guys | 14:57 |
| chimpo | Flash are being a b!tch about 64 bit support | 14:57 |
| jacquesdupontd | i've got a big problem on my computer | 14:57 |
| jacquesdupontd | can someone help me ? | 14:57 |
| jacquesdupontd | i'm not a newbie dont be afraid | 14:57 |
| CaBlGuY | chimpo: yea, tell me about it.. :/ | 14:57 |
| MasterShrek | !someone | jacquesdupontd | 14:57 |
| ubotu | jacquesdupontd: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? | 14:57 |
| chimpo | !ask | 14:57 |
| ubotu | Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question -- All On One Line, so others can read it and follow it easily --. and if anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-) | 14:57 |
| ActionParsnip | chimpo, its the only thing stopping me 64bitting (flash and java) | 14:57 |
| jacquesdupontd | 3 years i'm on ubuntu | 14:57 |
| CaBlGuY | anyway, im out.. thanks again jrib.. | 14:57 |
| RatThing | hacker2k8, is it a USB camera? | 14:58 |
| jacquesdupontd | MasterShrek, i can explain it to you ? | 14:58 |
| jacquesdupontd | ok so | 14:58 |
| MasterShrek | ActionParsnip, dont be scared, its not THAT hard to get flash and java working in 64 bit ffox | 14:58 |
| RatThing | webcam | 14:58 |
| jacquesdupontd | i have a geforce 7900 gs | 14:58 |
| MasterShrek | !enter | 14:58 |
| ubotu | Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 14:58 |
| jacquesdupontd | dell inspiron 9400 | 14:58 |
| ally_xoxo | so virtualbox is similar to vmware and apple's bootcamp | 14:58 |
| jacquesdupontd | and somtimes most of the times | 14:58 |
| hacker2k8 | RatThing, ya and i forgot the lib something | 14:58 |
| jacquesdupontd | when i open a flash web page | 14:58 |
| MasterShrek | !enter | jacquesdupontd | 14:58 |
| ubotu | jacquesdupontd: please see above | 14:58 |
| zionpsyfer | ally_xoxo: Not sure how vested you are with VS, but if you're not too far into it I'd try Eclipse. Really good IDE imho | 14:58 |
| ActionParsnip | MasterShrek, I want zero effort cos I'm a very casual user who works on PCs ALL day so I dont want to be on them at night. Hence 32bit | 14:58 |
| MasterShrek | jacquesdupontd, dont use enter as puncuation | 14:58 |
| jacquesdupontd | either my computer make some flashes on the screen | 14:58 |
| chimpo | ActionParsnip, i did see an ace script that will install 32bit firefox/flash/java along side the 64 bit version | 14:58 |
| chimpo | so if theres an issue you can switch over to it | 14:59 |
| RatThing | hacker2k8, if you lsusb does it show up and if so what does it say? | 14:59 |
| ally_xoxo | what are the pros/cons of it? | 14:59 |
| MasterShrek | ActionParsnip, once its set up, its good to go, only takes a few extra minutes if you know what you are doing | 14:59 |
| jacquesdupontd | and most of the time it hang up and i cant do anything even control alt del | 14:59 |
| MasterShrek | ally_xoxo, its similar to vmware, but i find it smaller, less extra processes running in the background and stuff | 14:59 |
| jacquesdupontd | it seems i'm not the only one to have this problem, does someone have any idea ? | 14:59 |
| ActionParsnip | home time for me guys and gals | 14:59 |
| samad909 | hi, i need help setting up my sound card to work, its a sound blaster audigy value | 14:59 |
| ally_xoxo | great | 14:59 |
| ActionParsnip | peace and pineapples | 14:59 |
| MrMist | Anyone else here know what to do? I cant get the display on my dell laptop to work. I'm running with a nvidia quadro 512 MB card, think the GPU is the same as GeForce Go 7400 | 14:59 |
| ally_xoxo | what is a good media player for ubuntu that i can "apt-get install" mastershrek | 15:00 |
| hacker2k8 | RatThing, ya it says:Bus 004 Device 001: ID 0000:0000 | 15:00 |

| ally_xoxo | that will play videos/mp3s, etc | 15:00 |
| hacker2k8 | RatThing, sorry i forgot | 15:00 |
| jacquesdupontd | you see i've explain my problem and nobody is helping me that's why now i ask before if someone is able to take time for me | 15:00 |
| MasterShrek | ally_xoxo, vlc | 15:00 |
| ally_xoxo | is that what you use? | 15:00 |
| samad909 | any help with the sound card anyone? | 15:00 |
| MasterShrek | jacquesdupontd, have you installed the nvidia propreitary drivers through the restricted drivers manager? | 15:01 |
| jacquesdupontd | MasterShrek, yes | 15:01 |
| jacquesdupontd | nvidia-glx-new | 15:01 |
| hacker2k8 | RatThing, i did it once but i really forgot the lib.....? something | 15:01 |
| zionpsyfer | Cons: java based, not a complete package like VS. Pros: One of the best gui java apps I've used, easy to configure, relatively lightweight. Supports most languages and has plugins. | 15:01 |
| jacquesdupontd | i've seen on forums that i'm not alone to have this problem and nobody have a clue | 15:01 |
| MasterShrek | jacquesdupontd, is it using the nvidia driver? in a terminal: lsmod | grep nvidia | 15:01 |
| jacquesdupontd | yes | 15:01 |
| iblicf | hi , aybody use intel 945G / gma 950 card : ) | 15:02 |
| jacquesdupontd | it's using it for sure im using compiz-fusion but even if i dont enable it it does the same thing | 15:02 |
| MasterShrek | then i dunno waht to tell you, maybe try the driver from nvidia's site, btu you need to know how to kill X and restart it to install the driver | 15:02 |
| jacquesdupontd | MasterShrek, the problem comes from adobe flash and nvidia drivers on dell laptop i think | 15:02 |
| hacker2k8 | RatThing, was it something like jason...jade...i dunno i really forgot | 15:02 |
| jacquesdupontd | MasterShrek, and you know how gnash is horrible | 15:02 |
| RatThing | hacker2k8, which version of ubuntu are you using? | 15:03 |
| samad909 | iblicf: you mean the 945g chipset? | 15:03 |
| hacker2k8 | RatThing, ubuntu gibon | 15:03 |
| iblicf | samad909, yeah , do you ? | 15:03 |
| samad909 | iblicf: yes, i am on that chipset | 15:03 |
| jacquesdupontd | MasterShrek, any clue ? | 15:03 |
| iblicf | samad909, have u installed compiz fussion :) | 15:04 |
| MasterShrek` | lmfao, xp just bsod'd me | 15:04 |
| RatThing | hacker2k8, do you know what version number that is | 15:04 |
| samad909 | iblicf: nope | 15:04 |

| jacquesdupontd | MasterShrek, thanx | 15:09 |
| seng | problem is | 15:09 |
| MasterShrek | MrMist, well i dunno, id suggest trying that link i just gave to jacquesdupontd and using the nvidia driver from their site, thats what ive always used | 15:09 |
| ally_xoxo | i dont have winamp :( | 15:09 |
| seng | after a few minutes connect i not only lose connection but also my system hangs | 15:09 |

| seng | and whatever i type in terminal and i hit enter | 15:11 |
| seng | doesnt react | 15:11 |
| seng | just sits there | 15:11 |
| MasterShrek | MrMist, jacquesdupontd, you need to apt-get install build-essential and install the headers for your kernel. then download that file and make it exectuteable: chmod a+x NVIDIA.....run then drop to a console: ctrl+alt+f1, log in and kill x: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop install the driver by typing: ./NVIDIA.....run in the directory where it is, follow the prompts, then restart x when its all done: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start | 15:11 |
| MrMist | MasterShrek: How do I run these .run files then? Are they bash scripts? | 15:11 |
| MasterShrek | MrMist, yest | 15:11 |
| MasterShrek | yes* | 15:11 |
| seng | and then cant close the terminal | 15:11 |
| seng | but i can open a new one | 15:11 |

| zionpsyfer | ally_xoxo: I've never had to do any links when installing | 15:15 |
| jacquesdupontd | MasterShrek, and it will be hard to know if it works cause it comes randomly, and from what i've heard it comes from nvidia drivers nvidia were saying that they were working on it and saying to download older drivers but may those one works now | 15:15 |
| MasterShrek | seng stop flooding, put everything you want to say on one line | 15:15 |
| ally_xoxo | no no | 15:15 |

| MasterShrek | interesting jacquesdupontd, well good luck :) | 15:16 |
| ally_xoxo | zionpsyfer i've been on ubuntu for only 48 hours hun | 15:16 |
| MasterShrek | rezalover, #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter | 15:16 |
| ally_xoxo | so forgive me :) | 15:16 |
| zionpsyfer | ally_xoxo: Ahhh, easier way: just search synaptic for rar | 15:16 |
| ally_xoxo | ok | 15:16 |
| BenEK | guys sorry to post this again... but installed clamav, and cant figure out how to use it... tried searching man pages but nothing turns out. All I want to do is scan a windows drive... | 15:16 |
| jacquesdupontd | MasterShrek, thanx | 15:16 |
| un0p | ally_xoxo, I don't think rar and unrar are served by the same file .. they are seperate on my system | 15:16 |
| rezalover | hi | 15:17 |
| MasterShrek | zionpsyfer, that brings up many results though, just install from synaptic the two packages rar and unrar | 15:17 |
| Pici | !rar | ally_xoxo | 15:17 |
| ubotu | ally_xoxo: rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression. There is a free (as in speech) unrar utility as well, see !info unrar-free | 15:17 |
| zionpsyfer | MasterShrek: Searching unrar brought up three results for me | 15:17 |
| th0r | BenEK it is a command line program, so 'man freshclam' and 'man clamscan' | 15:17 |
| zionpsyfer | comix, unrar and unrar-free | 15:17 |
| MasterShrek | zionpsyfer, yea, but searching rar will bring many many results | 15:17 |
| th0r | BenEK there is also clamtk...a gui interface...and klamav for kde | 15:17 |
| fr500 | is it possible to configure a cisco 828 as a DSL bridge? | 15:18 |
| ally_xoxo | hmmmm that is weird | 15:18 |
| zionpsyfer | MasterShrek: Indeed, there's like 25 or so at a guess. | 15:18 |
| BenEK | ahh... ok thanks thor. BTW, how do yuo invoke from command line? | 15:18 |
| ally_xoxo | i dont see "rar" in my synaptic package manager | 15:18 |
| ally_xoxo | i only see "rarpd" | 15:18 |
| ally_xoxo | is that the same thing? | 15:18 |
| zionpsyfer | nope | 15:18 |
| MasterShrek | ally_xoxo, i thought it was in there... | 15:19 |
| zionpsyfer | hmmm | 15:19 |
| ally_xoxo | oh | 15:19 |
| ally_xoxo | haha | 15:19 |
| BenEK | nevermind... missed the line | 15:19 |
| rezalover | hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm | 15:19 |
| ally_xoxo | i seee it now! | 15:19 |
| un0p | ally_xoxo, you have to enable the multiverse repository and update synaptic | 15:19 |
| ally_xoxo | it was hidding from me lol | 15:19 |
| seng | Long story: I was googlin around bout this problem some people wrote scripts to detect wthether NM disconnects from wireless or something like that Other say I should use roaming instead of manual setup I did..same problem as short story! I thought maybe its my wireless card and its restricted driver ABG 3945 I turned it off and pluged in my PCMCIA wireless g D-Link caRD. sEEMED to work longer maybe an hour or two. Then still hangs like short story. So it must | 15:19 |
| seng | be gutsy huh? Wired connection 24 hours no problem at all. However, remember I turned off the restricted driver for 3945? After I encountered that the problem wont be solved after using a different wireless card I turned back on the restricted driver for 3945. Then I was doing some ftp transfer and samba fileshare etc. I had a connect from 8pm till 8 am in the morning(got to got to work at 8am so i had to turn off my computer)I was transferring files from an ft | 15:19 |
| seng | p server 5gigs. It went smooth and no hang or whatsoever. Problem seemed to be solved.Well not quite. After I am back from work I connected to wireless ap again and transferred a 900mb file to my samba server. As expected and it hanged again. My point is, it seems that after enabling the restricted driver(restart required of course) for 3945 the wireless seemed to work as it suppose to work, flawlessly. | 15:19 |

| ally_xoxo | mastershrek after you do "sudo apt-get install rar" | 15:20 |

| MasterShrek | ally_xoxo, no, u sholdnt have to mess with that at all | 15:21 |
| ally_xoxo | ok great | 15:21 |
| ally_xoxo | i didnt | 15:21 |
| MasterShrek | just run unrar from the command line, or just use the gui tools | 15:22 |

| Reno | Someone in here who knows how to install red5? | 15:22 |
| ally_xoxo | where did my rar get installed to? i dont see it on my toolbar | 15:22 |
| MasterShrek | ally_xoxo, you should be able to treat it as any other archive now | 15:22 |
| MasterShrek | ally_xoxo, it wont be on any toolbars, its "under the hood" so to speak | 15:22 |
| ally_xoxo | haha | 15:22 |
| ally_xoxo | um, can i create a shortcut and but it under "applications"? | 15:23 |
| seng | Short story: Wireless connects and after a few minutes it disconnects. Entering NM shows two wired connections? in terminal after typing a command such as sudo ifconfig eth0 down or sudo whatever and ENTER it jumps to next line and does nothing cant close the terminal, cant open system monitor to force quit or kill process opening a new terminal same thing, then system hangs i can move my mouse though but cant restart either cause typing something like sudo shu | 15:23 |
| seng | tdown -r now doesnt do anything just sits there and wait SO hold Power button five seconds and turn back on | 15:23 |
| zionpsyfer | Your context menu from right clicking on a rar should allow you to Extract Here | 15:23 |
| seng | haha | 15:23 |
| MasterShrek | ally_xoxo, shortcut to what? im kinda confused as to what you want to do | 15:23 |
| seng | i posted long story first | 15:23 |
| un_op | ally_xoxo, rar and unrar are command line apps .. they'd be pointless in a menu really | 15:23 |
| seng | then short story | 15:23 |
| ally_xoxo | oh | 15:23 |
| seng | HELP | 15:23 |
| ally_xoxo | ok | 15:23 |
| seng | is it a BUG | 15:23 |
| ally_xoxo | i understand now | 15:23 |
| traiani | ally_xoxo: it doesn't have a GUI, so there's nothing for it to do when you 'click on it' | 15:23 |

| profanephobia | seng_, you are seng_ that was seng | 15:48 |
| klrspz | Package apache is not available, but is referred to by another package. This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source ..... E: Package apache has no installation candidate | 15:48 |
| dimi_ | klrspz: it is even on the ubuntu howto page http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Gutsy#How_to_install_Apache_and_PHP5 | 15:48 |
| teodra | klrspz no i installed it using that command.. | 15:48 |
| profanephobia | klrspz, do apache2 | 15:48 |
| genii | yoni_ub: So it looks like you have some custom kernel there. What name does result of command: lsb_release -a give? (if ubuntu should be like Feisty Fawn, or Gutsy Gibbon, or (hopefully not) Hardy Heron) | 15:48 |

| klrspz | pici yeah i'll try | 15:50 |
| bazhang | klrspz: need help solving an issue? | 15:50 |

| klrspz | jrib: THANK YOU.. i looked in apt-get and apt-cache, but not aptitude's man page | 15:51 |
| genii | yoni_ub: OK so you are using ubuntu then. Perhaps try: sudo apt-get install dpkg although it should already be on by default as I described | 15:51 |
| Clockwell | kbingham_: really? ok, thank you. :) | 15:51 |
| klrspz | teodra: do you know what version of ubuntu you are running? | 15:52 |

| samuel | (i mean on the screen I see when I push ctrl+alt+f8 | 15:52 |
| jrib | samuel: 'man gdmflexiserver' is how I do it | 15:52 |
| ConstyXIV | is there a mac help channel on freenode | 15:52 |
| klrspz | teodra: ok, we're all on 7.10, that might make a difference | 15:52 |
| samuel | jrib: thanks | 15:52 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !noroot | 15:52 |
| kbingham_ | Clockwell: but you can still get root access with your ubuntu username with sudo :) | 15:52 |
| teodra | klrspz ok thnx for the time! | 15:52 |
| ubotu | We don't support a root password so don't suggest one unless you are going to be here 24/7 to help someone who has problems as a result of having one, many thanks ;-) | 15:52 |
| klrspz | teodra: but use apache2 as the package name to install | 15:52 |

| Juhaz | eg. import pygtk; pygtk.require('2.0 | 15:55 |
| Juhaz | eek | 15:55 |
| brobostigon | DOOM_NX: try amsn | 15:55 |
| klrspz | jrib: after reading the man page, the changelog is only avail AFTER installed/updated.. is there a way to view the log BEFORE updating? i don't want it to break something I worked on on the side... i know for the ubuntu desktop synaptic will show a changelog when you click it, but i'm more of a CLI guy, and this is a server so there's no XORG listening | 15:55 |
| MasterShrek | ally_xoxo, this is when i was using gnome: http://s66.photobucket.com/albums/h247/invisiblekid852/linux%20screenshots/?action=view¤t=9-27-07.png | 15:55 |

| * Nex_ mo0s loudly | 15:56 | |
| jrib | klrspz: that is not true. The package does not have to be installed. The command just fetches the changelog from changelogs.ubuntu.com | 15:56 |
| DOOM_NX | sorry if i seem really picky but i can't find one that combines all others features... | 15:56 |

| aoupi | how do I install dictionaries in other languages for openoffice? | 15:57 |
| aoupi | for spellchecking that is | 15:57 |
| klrspz | jrib: hmm ok.. would it be safe to say that not all packages have a changelog? in particular i'm trying to find a log for php5-gd.. , when i do the aptitude changelog php5-gd it pulls it for php5 | 15:57 |
| MasterShrek | lol ally_xoxo, i have no idea what themes i was using, i just threw some stuff together lol | 15:57 |
| ally_xoxo | ah | 15:57 |
| brobostigon | DOOM_NX: pidgin combine most of the basics, maybe that the best choice | 15:57 |
| jrib | aoupi: 'apt-cache search openoffice dictionary' (It just uses the myspell-* packages) | 15:57 |
| ally_xoxo | i need to fix my terminal | 15:58 |
| ally_xoxo | make it all sexy | 15:58 |

| samad909 | the sound icon says muted, i tried right clicking and deselect mute but for some reason it stays muted, any ideas? | 15:58 |
| jrib | klrspz: you get a changelog for the source package. php5-gd is probably created from the source package "php" | 15:58 |
| klrspz | jrib: hmmm.. actually it looks like it's thrown in the mix with the php5 log | 15:59 |
| rinaldi_ | samad909: sound preferences? make sure allthe things are turned up | 15:59 |
| samad909 | rinaldi_: did that already and trying to unmute without luck :S | 16:00 |

| rinaldi_ | samad909: is this new install or only just started to happen? | 16:00 |
| MasterShrek | ally_xoxo, anything and everything | 16:00 |
| jrib | klrspz: the php5 package creates several binary debs including php5-gd. Try: apt-cache showsrc php5 | grep -i binary | head -n 1 | 16:00 |
| samad909 | rinaldi_: new install | 16:00 |

| brobostigon | shadow98: dont you mean gutsy 7.10 | 16:20 |
| stringer630 | i want to create a shared partition that can be accessed through windows | 16:20 |

| pike_ | stringer630: oh, you may need to create the partition and format it in windows. or use fat32 | 16:21 |
| bazhang | marko-_-: no worries :} | 16:21 |
| rinaldi_ | Shadow98: how long did you leave i? mine takes a little while befrore it loads the live desktop | 16:21 |
| stringer630 | whats the difference between fat32 and ntfs? | 16:21 |
| marko-_- | :) | 16:21 |
| Shadow98 | about 2 mins | 16:21 |
| samuel | I have an ntfs disk that was (when last in a windows machine) left hibernated. Now I can't mount it read/write. I don't have a Windows machine to 'unhibernate' the disk in the accepted way. I've read I just need to delete/change the hiberfil.sys file - but with no read/write that isn't possible. Ideas? | 16:22 |
| Shadow98 | does the cd rom stop spinning while it loads as well | 16:22 |
| MetzrKr | somebody heard about when FlightGear 1.0 got a ubuntu binary package? | 16:22 |
| JensenDied | stringer630: IIRC fat32 only supports indvidual filesizes up to 2gb | 16:22 |
| samuel | So is there something more forecful than -force in the mount options | 16:22 |
| dgjones | stringer630, I think the gparted livecd can create ntfs partitions, http://gparted.sourceforge.net/features.php | 16:22 |
| Duke_Fluke | samuel, usually for me that means i have to run chkdsk from windows | 16:22 |

| rinaldi_ | shodow98: it might stop for a minute but start up again, did you check the cd for defects/ram test etc | 16:23 |
| stringer630 | right, so how would i go about formatting the partion in windows? would i have to create a partion before hand in the ubuntu installer? | 16:23 |
| zackie___ | I have Downloaded the /flashplayer-installer I opened Synaptic and did a search and didn't find it so i went to the terminal and typed ./flashplayer-installer and said it didn't find it | 16:23 |
| samuel | Duke_Fluke: No windows around.. Disk is internal at the moment and I quite wanted not to pull it out... | 16:23 |
| Duke_Fluke | samuel also there is ntfstools i think it called | 16:23 |
| Shadow98 | I did the check of the cd but did not check ram | 16:23 |
| Duke_Fluke | samuel its like fsck for ntfs | 16:23 |
| rinaldi_ | zackie__: do sudo then drag and drop the installer once extracted into terminal, easiest way for me | 16:24 |

It doesn't even work on some sites anymore. It doesn't work on Opera. It doesn't work on Conquerer. Adobe messed up, and now Ubuntu has to take the heat about the quality of the product. | 17:02 |

| XLV | marko-_-, lmsensors need configuring.. maybe this temp is bogus or maybe its actually cpu temp.. edit /etc/sensors.conf to match exactly your system | 17:05 |

| ArthurArchnix | stringer630: That would require resizing a partition after data has been added to it. Always a better choice to choose the size of your partitions now, and not risk data loss. | 17:06 |
| marko-_- | xlv huh | 17:07 |
| XLV | marko-_-, to check.. install cpuburn.. run it, and see if any of those temps increases when running it.. the temp that increases is cpu temp | 17:07 |

| ArthurArchnix | stringer630: If you like. I used to do that as well. But now I just use the installation cd to setup my partitions. If I remember correctly the graphical version (live CD) uses gparted at the time of setting up partitions. | 17:08 |

But yes, gparted willl work before hand. Or Windows post install if you choose not to use the partition at boot. You'll just have to add an entry to fstab, which is really easy to do. | 17:11 |

| sdakak | cnStarz: at the main live cd menu look for advanced or something to get the command line. and type boot. | 17:18 |
| cnStarz | okay | 17:18 |
| jhaluska | bkar: I'm not too comfortable with changing the route table: route -n gives a line "192.168.2.1 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 ppp0" | 17:18 |
| cnStarz | then what | 17:18 |
| sdakak | bkar: he does not have a regular install | 17:18 |
| bkar | sdakak-> got it | 17:18 |
| sdakak | cnStarz: f6 it is. then look for something irregular in the messages that appeor | 17:19 |
| cnStarz | so just type "boot" and press enter? | 17:19 |
| sdakak | cnStarz: look at the last message you see. may give you pointers. | 17:19 |
| bkar | jhaluska-> but that does not have a gateway, so no way to get to the destination | 17:19 |
| sdakak | cnStarz: try that. | 17:19 |
| Chamunks | Is there something i can snag out of the repo's that will compress my jpg's that come out of my digital camera I'm trying to avoid doing this per picture. | 17:19 |
| cnStarz | just type "boot" and press enter, right? | 17:19 |
| evil_tech | anyone using the ATI 8.443 driver on a TP T60? | 17:19 |
| sdakak | cnStarz: right | 17:19 |
| cnStarz | alright thanks i'll give that a go. hopefully you're still on here when i get back | 17:20 |
| sdakak | Chamunks: irfanview did that in windows | 17:20 |
| jhaluska | bkar: What do I have to change? | 17:20 |
| bkar | Chamunks-> tar and gzip can compress a whole directory | 17:20 |
| uplink | how i update the gnome to 2.20.3? (i use the ubuntu gutsy) | 17:20 |
| sdakak | !fonts | 17:20 |
| ubotu | 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 | 17:20 |
| bkar | jhaluska-> make sure you have a gateway to the network or host you wanted to get to, and the other end must also have a route to get back to you | 17:20 |
| stringer630 | if i create my partition seperately using Gparted before installing, what option do i use when i come to install? | 17:20 |
| Chamunks | bkar, i tossed them all into a tar.gz but i want them to be smaller so i can slap em into my /var/www/ | 17:20 |
| adrock358 | Iwireless | 17:20 |
| sdakak | !wireless | adrock358 | 17:21 |
| ubotu | adrock358: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 17:21 |
| Chamunks | sdakak, trying to avoid having to install windows for this. | 17:21 |
| adrock358 | iwireless | 17:21 |
| sdakak | Chamunks: i know. | 17:21 |
| bkar | Chamunks-> having a xx.tar.gz is already compressed | 17:21 |
| chimpo | I have a wireless usb dongle that totally freezes ubuntu when i plug it in (ie. responds to not keys, mouse frozen, have to hard reset etc) anyone have any experience with this kind of problem? | 17:21 |
| sdakak | Chamunks: what you are looking for is than a gimp-script or something. | 17:21 |
| jhaluska | bkar: Sounds like I have to wait for the network admin to get back. | 17:22 |
| bkar | chimpo-> yes, i/o interrupt not serviced or failures, freezes my gutsy too | 17:22 |
| neverblue | stringer630, ill ask again, whats your setup like ? | 17:22 |
| Chamunks | sdakak, bleh too much work im just trying to send some pics from my trip to my gf but good to know for later reference thanks. | 17:22 |
| brobostigon | try zz compression, they are very compressed. | 17:22 |
| chimpo | It seems like quite a large bug not to have fixed | 17:22 |
| jhaluska | bkar: What do I have to change to make sure I am routing properly? | 17:22 |
| bkar | jhaluska-> may as well, he is paid to solve your company network issues | 17:22 |
| sdakak | Chamunks: :) a google search is better than this channel. | 17:22 |
| jhaluska | bkar: Yeah, well I don't have a lot of faith in him | 17:22 |
| Chamunks | bkar, i know that much i was just hoping to optimize them for web browser viewing over a 800Kbps upstream. | 17:23 |
| bkar | jhaluska-> route table, main table, unless you do policy routing stuff, you dont need access to other route tables | 17:23 |
| Chamunks | sdakak, yeah i was just kinda hoping for a name of an item in a repo if there isnt one it doesent matter that much | 17:23 |
| stringer630 | well i want to install ubuntu on one hddrive and also create a partition that windows could access. I already have a drive ith windows on | 17:23 |
| Chamunks | sdakak, its only a convenience thing really. | 17:23 |
| stringer630 | the live cd doesnt allow me to create a ntfs partition though | 17:24 |
| neverblue | stringer630, so on HD, two partitions ? | 17:24 |
| neverblue | s/on/one/ | 17:24 |
| rinaldi_ | chimpo: does it freeze completely or go extremely slow first? thats what my laptop did | 17:24 |
| chimpo | Instantly | 17:24 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Chamunks: FYI jpg are already highly compressed | 17:24 |
| bkar | Chamunks-> for each jpg I think apache has modules to auto compress/decompress and am not sure which client browser supports that | 17:24 |
| Chamunks | sdakak, bkar thanks for your time. | 17:24 |
| stringer630 | yes, one for ubuntu install, one for shared storage with windows | 17:25 |
| mowsheen | pidgin keeps buddies i deleted. i remove the buddy and when i restart pidgin they're back. | 17:25 |
| jhaluska | bkar: So: "route add -net 192.162.2.20 netmask 255.255.255.0 dev ppp0"? | 17:25 |
| adrock358 | Can anyone tell me what a header is? | 17:25 |
| neverblue | stringer630, ok, whats your question then, please reply using my nick so I have a chance to see it, thanks | 17:25 |
| chimpo | I have tested it on two computer, feisty and gutsy, all freeze | 17:25 |
| rinaldi_ | chimpo: what usb dongle is it? | 17:25 |
| Chamunks | Jack_Sparrow, yeah they are just for over the web viewing on a asymetric dsl line of 7.2 megapixel jpegs is kindof slow. | 17:26 |
| Oleander | help: i have onboard video card as well as ati 128mb pci with dvi and vga. i have two lcd running of ati card. in order to install ubuntu i had to change bios to onboard. now i have finished install. how do i go back to having my two lcds off ati card instead? | 17:26 |
| bkar | jhaluska-> add a gateway 192.168.2.24 assuming 192.168.2.24 is your nic ip address | 17:26 |
| chimpo | Some belkin one (they are crap) | 17:26 |
| Chamunks | bkar, that would be a good thing to look into thanks. | 17:26 |

| adrock358 | Hey guys, how's it goin? | 17:26 |
| Chamunks | bkar, googleing.... | 17:26 |
| adrock358 | Does anyone know what a "header" is? | 17:27 |
| adrock358 | In the terminal window | 17:27 |
| jhaluska | bkar: Can I add ppp0 as a gateway? | 17:27 |
| bkar | Chamunks good luck, i dont know much about client auto compress/decompress | 17:27 |
| erUSUL | adrock358: in what context | 17:27 |
| bkar | jhaluska-> yes you can add | 17:27 |
| stringer630 | neverblue: thanks for you patience. Can i simpley use a program like GParted to make neccassary partitions for an ubuntu installtion and NTFS? Than how do i go about installing ubuntu, as in which partition option do i use ie Gudied or maual? | 17:27 |
| mowsheen | a "header" in what context? | 17:27 |
| Raph | hello i have a problem with bulletproofX, i'd like to disable it, how can I do it cleanly ? | 17:27 |
| Chamunks | bkar, I love how if i have no idea where to begin this place usually seems to allways deliver some pertinent info on where i should go to get started. | 17:28 |
| bkar | jhaluska however i seem to prefer having a gateway xx.x.x.x | 17:28 |
| adrock358 | I'm installing some build files | 17:28 |
| jhaluska | bkar: Well I'm assuming I need to route anything to 192.168.2.x through the ppp0 gateway | 17:28 |
| erUSUL | adrock358: the kernel headers? or of any other library? | 17:28 |
| jorge_ | !kde4 | 17:28 |

| neverblue | stringer630, you can partition within the installer if you want, it will do the samething as outside the install ( using gparted, like your asking), are you concerned about losing data ? | 17:28 |
| rinaldi_ | chimpo: i take it it doesn't work if its in while you boot too... | 17:28 |
| bkar | Chamunks sometimes we read bits and pieces of stuff, we dont follow all the tidbits, just remember oh i came across such n such.. | 17:28 |
| adrock358 | thank you for responding, I sincerely appreciate that. The link to the contextual source is https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Device/Belkin_F5D7050_ver_3000_%28Ralink_rt73_driver%29?action=fullsearch&value=linkto%3A%22WifiDocs%2FDevice%2FBelkin+F5D7050+ver+3000+%28Ralink+rt73+driver%29%22&context=180 | 17:28 |
| chimpo | Yeah, doesnt work if its plugged in while booting | 17:29 |
| bkar | jhaluska correct..having to be more specific is ideally good | 17:29 |
| Raph | please I'm an old debian user and i need to disable bulletproofX, it doesn't save my settings, how can I do it cleanly to the system ? | 17:29 |
| stringer630 | neverblue: the harddrive is empty so no data would be lost | 17:29 |
| Raph | i'm totally confused by this failsafe thing | 17:29 |
| chimpo | It actually had me stumped for ages rinaldi_, i had it plugged in while it was off and didnt know it caused it to freeze :P | 17:29 |
| astronaute | hello all | 17:29 |
| Chamunks | bkar, yeah that kinda stuff is the best kinda info i gotta say. | 17:30 |
| asdasdas | hi all | 17:30 |
| Raph | is therte an ubuntu guru here or not ? | 17:30 |
| asdasdas | yep | 17:30 |
| astronaute | can someone tell me where can I set stdout.log path in tomcat 5.5 ? | 17:30 |
| neverblue | stringer630, then, let me explain a good setup scenerio, and see if that helps | 17:30 |
| albatross | hallo, simple question: If i compile all the kernel modules I generally use into a custom kernel will i see a faster boot time? | 17:30 |
| neverblue | stringer630, how large is the drive ? | 17:30 |
| un_op | the ubuntu guru's have gone to have coffee and will be back soon | 17:30 |
| asdasdas | also i am searching one!! :D | 17:30 |
| un_op | s/'// | 17:30 |
| bkar | Chamunks, good luck, and come back to share your know how sometimes with the rest | 17:30 |
| jhaluska | If there isn't an ubuntu guru here, you're in trouble. | 17:30 |
| asdasdas | any italian? | 17:31 |
| albatross | Raph: what was the issue? | 17:31 |
| Raph | all I want is to configure X with debconf, as I alwas did | 17:31 |
| stringer630 | neverblue: 120gb, please type your ideas to solve my problem, i will be away from keyboard for a while, many thanks in advance | 17:31 |
| Pici | Raph: just run `sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg` | 17:31 |
| albatross | Raph: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg ? do you mean reconfigure | 17:31 |
| adrock358 | Hello? | 17:31 |
| Raph | albatross: it keeps starting X in 800x600 even if i set the monitor and the card driver correctly | 17:31 |
| Raph | albatross: yes I did that but X keeps starting in bulletproof mode | 17:31 |
| albatross | Raph: have you looked at the output at /var/log/Xorg0.log etc | 17:32 |
| spiderfire | !orca | 17:32 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about orca - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 17:32 |
| bkar | astronaute-> your tomcat server wants to spit out to stdout? | 17:32 |
| Raph | I even deleted xorg.conf.failsafe | 17:32 |
| asdasdas | can anyone help me to configure a lan between winxp home and ubuntu 7.10 in order to share internet connection installed on the winxp machine? | 17:32 |
| evil_tech | everytime i try to build a package out of the ATI driver it tells me the architecture wasnt found | 17:32 |
| GeorgeA | am using virtualbox on ubuntu to run windowsXP, when i try to access my host's ftp from inside the guest OS I get the following: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it. -- am using NAT. I can access other Ftp servers, just not the host's... any idea on how to fix that or what I should do to make it work? | 17:32 |
| albatross | Raph: are you using the new Nvidia driver? I had a problem with that crashing against the old kernel module for it. read the log and see what's going on that'll help people to help ya | 17:32 |
| === jorge_ is now known as Blaenk | ||
| Raph | albatross: yes I did, and the problem is that gdm doesn't use my real xorg.conf | 17:32 |
| rinaldi_ | chimpo: before plugging it in try, sudo modprobe rt73usb , that may work of course only if your chipset is the right one... | 17:32 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Raph: Use the pastebin topost your xorg.conf and post a link in here for someone to look it over | 17:32 |
| astronaute | bkar yes i need to debug some flex app, but cant find how to set stdout path :/ | 17:33 |
| bkar | asdasdas-> why not make the ubuntu as your gateway instead of the xp being the gateway to the internet? | 17:33 |
| neverblue | stringer630, ok, so you will need a base of 15GB (generous) for each your Ubuntu partition and your Win partition, then you will need a 1-2G partition for swap, the way I setup Ubuntu is a seperate partition for /home, so the previously allocated space for / is 15GB, and set /home to something the same. Then allocate the rest of the space to your 'extra' NTFS space | 17:33 |
| Duke_Fluke | asdasdas, i think the #windows forum is more appropriate for your question you want to share from the WINDOWS machine right? | 17:33 |
| Chamunks | bkar, nodds for sure. | 17:33 |
| albatross | Raph: gdm doesn't use your real one? surely it just picks up /etc/x11/xorg.conf? | 17:33 |
| bkar | astronaute-> you only use log files not a stdout, and then monitor the log files from a terminal | 17:33 |
| neverblue | stringer630, / (15GB), /home (20GB), /swap (2GB) c:/ (15GB), ~60GB NTFS left over | 17:34 |
| Raph | albatross: it keeps using the VESA driver, whereas I said I wanted the nvidia driver | 17:34 |
| albatross | asdasdas: i think there's a sort of simple "wizard" on xp for setting up connection sharing: called the sharing wizard or something | 17:34 |
| === asdasdas is now known as SayMeHello | ||
| Raph | that's the problem | 17:34 |
| astronaute | bkar stdout.log in fact is supposed to be generated too, well how can I monitor it over terminal please ? | 17:34 |
| evil_tech | anyone know why i keep getting a architecture not found error when i try to build a pkg from the ati driver installer | 17:34 |
| albatross | astronaute: tail stdout.log ? | 17:35 |
| Raph | is there no way to disable this bulletproof thing ? | 17:35 |
| chimpo | What does that do rinaldi_ ? | 17:35 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Raph: It will drop to vesa if something in your xorg is set incorrectly.. what did you set for v/h sync refresh | 17:35 |
| Raph | i just want the old behavior with debconf | 17:35 |
| adrock358 | So I'm blacklisting some drivers, and I got to build install build files. I'm new. Don't know anything about linux, except that I like it. Goodbye windows. I need to write these commands in the terminal window except with my version of the headers. | 17:35 |
| bkar | astronaute-> you can always tail a log file written to ... man tail please | 17:35 |
| === morhelp__ is now known as morhelp | ||
| albatross | Raph: yeah it's a pain. i don't think it's to do with the monitor setup. what version of the Nvidia driver are you trying to use? | 17:35 |
| Raph | I'm pretty sure my config is OK, | 17:35 |
| astronaute | bkar my problem is that I cant find that file | 17:35 |
| albatross | raph: you could try re installing linux-restricted-modules | 17:36 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Raph: We use sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg to set things up.... | 17:36 |
| astronaute | maybe i didnt understood you sorry for my english | 17:36 |
| chimpo | How about i do it rinaldi_, try plugging in, then paste any errors i get here, where would the correct logfile to look in be located? | 17:36 |
| adrock358 | anybody throw me a bone? I'm sure this is wickedly simple | 17:36 |
| bkar | astronaute-> look at your web.xml of your app or tomcats own web.xml , see the sample apps where and how they use loggers | 17:36 |
| Raph | linux-restricted-modules-2.6.22-14-generic 2.6.22.4-14.10, nvidia-glx 1:1.0.9639+2.6.22.4-14.10 | 17:36 |
| albatross | adrock358: hang on could you explain the problem again, i didn't really follow from your previous | 17:36 |
| rinaldi_ | chimpo: it will disable the kernel module that acceses the dongle. if it allows you to plug it in after that then we know you have that specific chipset | 17:37 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !build-essential | 17:37 |
| ubotu | Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first) | 17:37 |
| bkar | astronaute-> i assumed you wrote your own webapp, so you must know how to use loggers, and not stdout | 17:37 |
| Raph | Jack_Sparrow: as I already said, i already did that and it keeps launching displayconfiggtk | 17:37 |
| astronaute | bkar i dont have any but ill try to figure it out | 17:37 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Raph: Use the pastebin topost your xorg.conf and post a link in here for someone to look it over | 17:37 |
| albatross | Raph: yeah i think it'd be helpful to see the xorg.conf, it looks like your loading the right drivers | 17:37 |
| chimpo | And what log file should i check if i crash rinaldi_ ? | 17:37 |
| bkar | astronaute-> tomcat comes with example webapps, see how it uses the loggers | 17:37 |
| astronaute | bkar no it is about flex data services, i need to see its logs because there is some problemes on launch | 17:38 |
| albatross | Raph: as a stupid thing, did you try using the "nv" driver instead of the nvidia one? | 17:38 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Raph: Did you load the drivers manually? | 17:38 |
| adrock358 | So I'm blacklisting some drivers, and I got to build install build files. I'm new. Don't know anything about linux, except that I like it. Goodbye windows. I need to write these commands in the terminal window except with my version of the headers. | 17:38 |
| Raph | albatross: nope, lemme try and tell you | 17:38 |
| albatross | Raph: aye aye | 17:38 |
| bkar | astronaute-> i dont know what flex data services is, but if its a webapp running on tomcat, it should have the correct hooks to use the loggers, look for its config files how it logs | 17:38 |
| rinaldi_ | chimpo: to be honest im not sure :-[ i just know this from the last tim ei did it and it worked | 17:39 |
| stones` | Hi! How can i install a new user with an existing home folder? | 17:39 |
| albatross | adrock358: that still doesn't make much sense to me, you'd blacklist drivers in /etc/modules or /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist blah | 17:39 |
| abhi | hi | 17:39 |
| astronaute | bkar it logs in stdout file normally, but where i dont know "ConsoleTarget" | 17:39 |
| chimpo | rinaldi_: cant find it anyway, bah | 17:39 |
| stones` | i hope that is possible | 17:39 |
| albatross | stones`: a stupid answer: make a new user with some unwanted home directory and then move the wanted home folders around? | 17:40 |
| abhi | when I type tar -xvf *.bz2 , it shows:Not found in archive. why | 17:40 |
| Jack_Sparrow | stones`: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-365440.html | 17:40 |
| bkar | astronaute-> webapps are not supposed to be logging to stdout, webapps should not be accessing stdout only loggers | 17:40 |
| chimpo | That doesnt work proerly albatross | 17:40 |
| albatross | abhi: what is the file you're trying to extract called? | 17:40 |
| chimpo | They need to have the correct ownership of the folder | 17:40 |
| chimpo | files/etc | 17:41 |
| albatross | chimpo: i said it was a stupid answer | 17:41 |
| Raph | albatross: something I forgot... with dpkg-reconfigure, it doesn't auto-detect the card or the monitor, even if installed read-edid and mdetect | 17:41 |
| astronaute | bkar it is a logger : flex.messaging.log.ConsoleTarget | 17:41 |
| chimpo | k :P | 17:41 |
| abhi | albatross, : it is OSX-Mod-1.1.tar.bz2 | 17:41 |
| albatross | raph: hmm, that's a bit puzzling iv'e never had monitor autodetect work, but that's ok | 17:41 |
| albatross | abhi do: bunzip2 *.bz2 which will unzip it | 17:41 |
| abhi | albatross, : but tar -xvf O*. work fine. | 17:41 |
| albatross | abhi: then tar -xvvf OSX-Mod-1.1.tar (now it will only be a tar file) | 17:41 |
| Jack_Sparrow | RaphWhich points even more to something incorrectly entered into the xorg.. and we are having a hard time figuring out why you wont post it | 17:41 |
| Raph | albatross: for my partit depends on the machine, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't | 17:41 |
| astronaute | bkar weird thing, i have stdout.log on windows but not on ubuntu (with flex logging) | 17:42 |
| astronaute | bkar same webapp | 17:42 |
| bkar | astronaute-> i am not sure if you are following me, webapp servers are not normally doing output to stdout, only spits out output to log files | 17:42 |
| Pici | abhi: or just do tar -xjvf file.tar.bz2 | 17:42 |
| adrock358 | albatross, i'm blacklist bad drivers, putting new ones in. I am new as heck. I am following this tutorial: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Device/Belkin_F5D7050_ver_3000_%28Ralink_rt73_driver%29?highlight=%28WifiDocs%2FDevice%29 thank you for all your help. | 17:42 |
| albatross | chimpo: anywah you could just chown chgroup etc and so forth | 17:42 |
| abhi | Pici: let me try. | 17:42 |
| linkslice | how do i add an item to the gnome menu if it's not in the list of software through the add/remove applications wizard | 17:42 |
| albatross | adrock358: oh for wifi, sorry i don't really know anything about wifi but im sure someone can help | 17:42 |
| stones` | thx i will try that | 17:42 |
| Raph | albatross: anyway, I don't care since I know the frequencies...; and I specified them in debconf... but it keeps starting displayconfig-gtk | 17:43 |
| astronaute | bkar thats it, but it is simply not normal that on windows i get that log file and not on my ubuntu | 17:43 |
| Jack_Sparrow | stones`: Did you see the link I posted? | 17:43 |
| albatross | stones`: follow the link, don't do what i said! | 17:43 |
| adrock358 | albatross: Thank you. Can you tell me what a 'header' is ? | 17:43 |
| rinaldi_ | chimpo: well i did a quick google, and found a belkin problem which may be yours, well it uses the same command as i just gave you. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=523946 | 17:43 |

| astronaute | bkar there must be some place to configure it, on windows it is simple in its service GUI but ubuntu im lost | 17:43 |
| Jack_Sparrow | adrock358: If trying to compile..make etc... see build-essential | 17:44 |
| abhi | Pici: I want to use *.bz2 not full name. this is working in mint but in ubuntu it is not working. | 17:44 |
| bkar | astronaute-> then do a tail of this log file | 17:44 |
| albatross | adrock358: a header is a part of a source code file which generally contains things like definitions of constants which will be used again and so forth | 17:44 |
| chimpo | Ahh cheers rinaldi_ | 17:44 |
| Pici | abhi: Why not the full name? | 17:44 |
| chimpo | Ill try to find the bugger then | 17:44 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !build-essential | 17:44 |

| bkar | astronaute-> it should be the same as in windows, you have a tool to configure webapp settings via the web.. | 17:44 |
| abhi | Pici: multiple files to be decompressed | 17:45 |
| albatross | Raph: yeah i'm sorry, i can't really help much more | 17:45 |
| Raph | albatross: thanks anyway | 17:45 |
| FernandoL | can anyone help me with sound issues? Yesterday my sound worked fine, but now when I try to open volume control it says that I have no devices or that I dont have the right GStreamer installed. | 17:45 |
| astronaute | bkar you are right there is flex.log i will dgg it thank you ! :) | 17:45 |
| bkar | jhaluska-> alright, cool, yeah for a 2 end point connections your flag must be /32 | 17:45 |
| albatross | Raph: i had a lot of success turning off 'desktop effects' that seemed to gank my nvidia setup every time | 17:45 |
| adrock358 | albatross. thank you so much. albatross. how do I find what my heading is that I would input into this excerpt from a wireless tutorial : user@ubuntu:~$ sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r` user@ubuntu:~$ sudo ln -s /usr/src/linux-headers-`uname -r` /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build | 17:45 |
| abhi | albatross, : but tar -xvvf *.tar also not working. | 17:45 |
| chimpo | found it rinaldi_ | 17:46 |
| chimpo | Here we go! | 17:46 |
| jhaluska | bkar: What do you mean my flag must be /32? | 17:46 |
| abhi | albatross, : but bunzip2 *.bz2 worked. | 17:46 |
| albatross | adrock358: from what you've posted there, you can actually do those lines and it will work for you | 17:46 |
| bkar | jhaluska-> alright, cool, yeah for a 2 end point connections your netmask must be /32 | 17:46 |
| albatross | abhi: yeah it should have worked, but now you should be able to un-tar the remaining tar file | 17:46 |
| adrock358 | albatross. interesting. thank you. I may be back | 17:46 |
| chimpo | Im still alive! | 17:46 |
| chimpo | woo | 17:46 |
| chimpo | well that worked | 17:46 |
| FernandoL | can anyone help me with sound issues? Yesterday my sound worked fine, but now when I try to open volume control it says that I have no devices or that I dont have the right GStreamer installed. | 17:46 |
| albatross | abhi: think of it asif the bz2 compression wraps up the tar archive which wraps up the files underneath, so you remove the bz2 and then you untar and there you have it | 17:47 |
| arunkale | hello, people.. i need to connect to the internet using pppoe. my settings are all correct, and i am able to connect to the internet. the problem is, it keeps disconnecting randomly. usually i can re-connect without restarting my computer, but it is getting to be very irritating. I checked my ppp log and i got this message: CHAP authentication failed: I don't like you. Go 'way. | 17:47 |
| arunkale | The same log for yesterday says CHAP authentication succeeded: Welcome to 7NETSRV12 | 17:47 |
| jhaluska | bkar: Would a /24 be better? | 17:47 |
| arunkale | any suggestions? | 17:47 |
| bkar | jhaluska-> nope | 17:47 |
| neverblue | arunkale, do you have a router ? | 17:47 |
| albatross | anyway, im very late for work so i gotta roll | 17:47 |
| adrock358 | albatross. log returns this : bash: user@ubuntu:~$: command not found | 17:47 |
| adrock358 | albatross. thank you. | 17:48 |
| albatross | adrock358: hmm, which command did you try | 17:48 |
| jhaluska | bkar: Well, what if the ip address i want to connect to changes because it is DHCP? | 17:48 |
| albatross | adrock358: sudo apt-get install linux-headers `uname -a` | 17:48 |
| adrock358 | albatross. bash: user@ubuntu:~$: command not found | 17:48 |
| arunkale | neverblue: there is a common router for my apartment building. why, what do you have in mind? | 17:48 |
| abhi | albatross, : that's what I am also thinking. this is working in mint. now I use tar -xvvf *.tar :not found in archive. | 17:48 |
| rinaldi_ | chimpo: after i did that mine just worked for some reason, don't know how bcos i disabled it... there might be a tutorial somewhere on how to reconfigure the module to stop it from freezing. | 17:48 |
| albatross | adrock358: when you're using backticks you have to be very careful you type the backtick (above the tilde not on my keyboard) not the single quote | 17:48 |
| bkar | jhaluska-> your end ip address should correspondingly change too, but you are establishing an end to end first then the rest of the network behind it | 17:48 |
| neverblue | arunkale, you are on it, try and bypass the router, and see if you have the same issues | 17:48 |
| adrock358 | albatross. i see, i am retarded. thank you. | 17:48 |
| albatross | adrock358: also you should be doing this in the terminal asccessories->terminal | 17:48 |
| adrock358 | albatross. yes | 17:49 |

| abhi | Pici: may be. | 17:49 |
| adrock358 | albatross. haha, you are funny | 17:49 |
| neverblue | arunkale, dont use the router, plug your cable from your modem directly into your PC | 17:50 |
| albatross | stringer630: i like to use the gparted boot disk to do all the partitioning in a friendly minimal linux environment and then reboot with the ubuntu live disk and i'm away | 17:50 |
| arunkale | neverblue: that is not really an option for me.. what do you think is causing the problem? | 17:50 |
| albatross | bye bye | 17:50 |
| bkar | jhaluska-> thats why gateway address should not change | 17:51 |

| MasterShrek | MGalaxy, wxwidgets maybe? is there a dev package of it or something? | 18:28 |
| bod_ | bahman: use the search feature to search for Totem | 18:28 |
| MenZa | Tobias92: Go fish. Now you know which device it is, anyway. | 18:29 |
| JonathanEllis | Hi. Can anyone tell me how to find out which version of Ghostscript I have installed on Gutsy? | 18:29 |
| neopsyche | Jack_Sparrow: yes.. well.. when i opened the scanner software that comes with ubuntu.. it showed options to select what to scan from.. so i selected the scanner.. for some reason.. i dont know why .. it also lists my TV card as a scanning device.. but i selected the scanner.. then when it booted up the software it said no scanner detected.. ? but im pretty sure ubuntu sees it.. or it wouldnt have said so. | 18:29 |
| MasterShrek | ghostscript -v ? i have no idea lol | 18:29 |
| Rimfrost | LinuxDC++ doesnt have any commands feat. build in as it is now i can only download and upload | 18:29 |
| zimon | JonathanEllis, ghostscript --version | 18:29 |
| r3r333rrrR | Rimfrost, command featuring? | 18:30 |
| stephano | bkar: kernel alive | 18:30 |
| JonathanEllis | I understand there is a problem with the pre-release version with printing secured pdfs that is fixed in the official release. This from Adobe | 18:30 |
| neopsyche | Jack_Sparrow: xsane detects the TV card... as the default "scanning device" but i want it to detect the actual scanner as default | 18:30 |
| r3r333rrrR | new linux dcpp has user commands and hyperlinks | 18:30 |
| bahman | bod_: There are some packages related to Totem here! | 18:30 |
| MGalaxy | MasterShrek: no such packages | 18:30 |
| Djerkaf | bod_: Ok, understood, let's just talk here then | 18:30 |
| Tobias92 | MenZa, when I try to cat the device (which I think it is) I get an error that says it does not exist | 18:30 |

| neopsyche | Jack sparrow.. any ideas? | 18:31 |
| JonathanEllis | The following is from http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.3c0564a2 | 18:31 |
| MGalaxy | MasterShrek: For: Ubuntu Feisty (32 bits) ! I have Gutsy | 18:31 |
| MasterShrek | MGalaxy, i dont think itll make a difference | 18:31 |
| bod_ | bahman: there should be little tick boxes to the left of the package name,.,. if these boxes r gree, that means there installed ,.,. find the main Totem package, right click on it and click 'Mark for reinstallation' then click ok,. then click on the apply button | 18:31 |
| Jack_Sparrow | neopsyche: I understand that.. but if it does not detect your scanner when you start xsane then we need to dig deeper.. as in what hardware ec.. | 18:31 |
| JonathanEllis | We have a problem with printing secured PDFs to non Post Script printers on Ubuntu 7.10 (due to an issue with the GhostScript that is bundled alongwith). | 18:32 |
| JonathanEllis | Could you please check which version of GhostScript you have on yourmachine? If it is 8.61 pre-release, I would suggest upgrading to theofficial release of 8.61 | 18:32 |
| neopsyche | hmm | 18:32 |

| MGalaxy | MasterShrek: I think so, It causes some problems | 18:32 |
| neopsyche | Jack_Sparrow: the hardware is.. acer scanner scan to web v3300 | 18:32 |
| Tansien | how can i have mv overwrite a subdirectory? or rather, files in that subdirectory? | 18:32 |

| Duke_Fluke | brobostigon, i thought at first but i don't think thats what he means | 18:35 |
| Duke_Fluke | Tobias92, you mean like 'cat /dev/mouse'? | 18:35 |

| PriceChild | !best | TheLynx | 18:39 |
| ubotu | TheLynx: 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. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you really insist on getting people's opinions, join #ubuntu-bots and ask there. | 18:39 |

| bod_ | zackie: depends on wot u want | 19:14 |

| frost0 | PriceChild, thx | 19:14 |
| PriceChild | zackie, you can also use "Applications > Add Remove" which is a little easier than synaptic. | 19:14 |
| Jambon_ | pike_: right | 19:14 |
| Jambon_ | pike_: does a log out do that? | 19:14 |

| Shadow98 | On install I get past the bar and then the install hangs and will not go any futher. I have checked the cd and did a mem test and all is ok there | 19:15 |
| bod_ | pricechild: add/remove was the reason zackie was here,.,.lol | 19:16 |
| zackie | bod___So repositories are like... Workgroups? certian ones have certian files depending on what genre it is? | 19:16 |

| rinaldi_ | marion: i have to leave now, just try to remove the original driver using ndiswrapper -r and download this http://www.linksys.com/servlet/Satellite?c=L_CASupport_C2&childpagename=US%2FLayout&cid=1166859959649&packedargs=sku%3D1144763512962&pagename=Linksys%2FCommon%2FVisitorWrapper&lid=5964912962B03&displaypage=download#versiondetail . load this into wine and take the .inf file out of the install directory. load this into ndiswrapper using ndiswrapp | 19:40 |
| PriceChild | ally_xoxo, with apt get, or from source? | 19:40 |
| ally_xoxo | i downloaded it from limewire site | 19:40 |
| CruCio | PriceChild which one do you use ? | 19:40 |
| ally_xoxo | actualyl pricechild: i think i did apt-get limewire | 19:41 |
| PriceChild | ally_xoxo, read their documentation, but sudo make uninstall from the source folder will hopefully do it | 19:41 |
| bastid_raZor | PriceChild:: okay | 19:41 |
| puppetmaster | Hi everyone i want to learn how to setup LAMP and configure it? | 19:41 |
| PriceChild | ally_xoxo, sudo apt-get remove --purge limewire in that case | 19:41 |
| PriceChild | !lamp | puppetmaster | 19:41 |
| ubotu | puppetmaster: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) | 19:41 |

| kidem_ | hey is there a way on ubuntu to convert .AVI to Divx | 19:46 |
| PriceChild | kidem_, you don't understand what either of them are do you? | 19:46 |
| kidem_ | formats | 19:46 |
| biouser | this computer is going through the same router ans the one that I am installing Gutsy on but I have to use some ancient Edgy era kernel b/c the wireless on this Toshiba laptop seems not to want to work on the newer kernels, something about how I have my ACPI set-up or something... packages no longer supported, I'm not sure. It is an old Toshiba Satellite P4 | 19:46 |
| stefg | kidem: avi is a container, divx is a codec..... apples and oranges | 19:47 |
| PriceChild | kidem, .avi is a container... which sometimes contains divx | 19:47 |
| shaft00r | Compiz issue: I'm searching around and trying to figure out how to get to the settings for compiz... like to make it spin around like a cube like you see on all those youtube vids. | 19:47 |

| pHaze | Hi. I need to deploy 10 production servers immediatelly and then have a way to easily spin up a new server using a build disk or network install of some kind.

| PriceChild | Boglizk, firestarter's gui is only a frontend. The service is continually running. | 19:57 |
| scguy318_2 | branstrom: probably your hard drive was reporting media/uncorrectable errors | 19:57 |
| branstrom | scguy318_2: exception Emask blabla frozen | 19:57 |
| ally_xoxo | I can't seem to get frostwire | 19:57 |
| stefg | branstrom: don't do any more operartions on that disk. Seems that the partition table got screwed. you'd need a rescue system and possibly a run of the 'testdisk' utility to see if it can recover the partition information | 19:57 |
| branstrom | is what I got | 19:57 |
| Boglizk | PriceChild: Yes, i'm aware of that. But i still dont like it quitting on me :p | 19:58 |
| branstrom | stefg: I'm not doing anything more, I shut it down and am running the live CD on that computer | 19:58 |
| zackie | When I Select an mp3 to play... it just highlights the play button and get no sound and it doesn't even look like (on the time line) that it is reading it... this is on Rhythmbox | 19:58 |

| Blaenk | hey how can I list partition tables? | 21:19 |
| QuickGold | genii: I dont know. This isn't my box. But it was working normally before. Then today I rebooted it and I've been having these problems | 21:19 |
| Blaenk | anyone | 21:20 |
| CruCio | apt-get install xchat or xchat-gnome right ? | 21:20 |
| Blaenk | CruCio, -gnome sucks :( | 21:20 |

| Blaenk | anyone, how can I list partition tables | 21:20 |
| CruCio | k | 21:20 |

| genii | QuickGold: Was the video card changed, or new video drivers attempted to be installed? | 21:21 |
| syberpuppy | in preference->sound, it says "alc882 analog (not connected)" | 21:21 |
| Starnestommy | CruCio: apt-get install downloads the package automatically | 21:21 |
| Viking667 | hm. Now _that_ is _weird_. The key ID listed for Ubuntu in the source-o-matic file is the same as the key I already have... | 21:21 |
| CruCio | :| | 21:21 |
| CruCio | impossible ? | 21:21 |
| QuickGold | genii: No. I rebooted it in an effort to get XDMCP working. Nothing in relation to the video card or its settings were changed | 21:21 |
| gouki | ikonia: What!? | 21:21 |
| CruCio | how come ? | 21:21 |
| Viking667 | 437D05b5 | 21:21 |
| Krumar | Blaenk, do "sudo fdisk -l" | 21:22 |
| CruCio | so i just type this in the terminal | 21:22 |
| zax_ | I just booted up my ubuntu box and firefox will not start, all it says, is that firefox was not shut down properly, and has two buttons and when you click wither one, it closes and nothing happened. | 21:22 |
| schock598 | x | 21:22 |
| CruCio | and Xchat is downloaded auto ? | 21:22 |
| Starnestommy | CruCio: yes | 21:22 |
| Viking667 | ... yet when I select some Gutsy packages (typically multi/uni-verse) they can't be authenticated. | 21:22 |
| Blaenk | Krumar, thanks | 21:22 |
| CruCio | damn | 21:22 |
| CruCio | hmm | 21:22 |
| CruCio | Tommy | 21:22 |
| CruCio | are you sure ? | 21:22 |
| Starnestommy | it is | 21:22 |
| syberpuppy | how can this be this dificult to reinstall a driver??? | 21:22 |
| CruCio | ok ok and what if it doesm't ? | 21:22 |
| stefano_ | Gutsy Gibbons x64 doesn't suspend more than once on my desktop. Chipset MCP55 if that has anything to do with it. | 21:22 |
| Viking667 | zax_: hm. Can you move your .mozilla directory out of the way and try restarting firefox? | 21:23 |
| Starnestommy | CruCio: if it doesn't find it it'll give you an error message saying it didn't | 21:23 |
| genii | QuickGold: Aaaah OK. You tried to set this machine up as a client? | 21:23 |
| knoxville22 | somewhere speaks spanish? | 21:23 |
| Starnestommy | knoxville22: #ubuntu-es ? | 21:23 |
| QuickGold | genii: No, I wanted to XDMCP into this machine from a windows machine | 21:23 |
| brobostigon | !es | knoxville22 | 21:23 |
| ubotu | knoxville22: Si busca ayuda en español por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, allí obtendrá más ayuda. | 21:23 |

| Krumar | syberpuppy, what is your problem | 21:24 |
| Viking667 | zax_: $ mv ~/.mozilla ~/.mozilla-backup | 21:24 |
| genii | QuickGold: Likely it is timing out looking for remote X servers to login to | 21:24 |
| marion | Duke_Fluke: Thanks again for you help. I will find one that is compatible out of the box. So long. | 21:24 |
| syberpuppy | Krumar: i somehow deleted (or something like that) my sound driver, how do i reinstall it? | 21:24 |
| QuickGold | genii: Okay, how can I fix it so it wont look for remote X servers? | 21:24 |
| Duke_Fluke | marion, chao | 21:24 |
| Starnestommy | CruCio: although if you downloaded a package onto a disc or other media, you could install it from the package on the disc if you don't have internet | 21:25 |
| CruCio | why does almost every executed in terminal ? | 21:25 |
| CruCio | everything* | 21:25 |

| Starnestommy | synaptic can be used for graphical package management | 21:25 |
| chimp | Can anyone give me a url for a sort of complete guide to ubuntu from the start? I started reading through the transcripts from the ubuntu-school channel, and was looking for something similar (sorry asked before but no-one answered 15 mins ago) | 21:25 |
| CruCio | so i open terminal | 21:25 |
| Cyo | Hello all, I am having troubles with installing Ubuntu on my machine. I have run memtest to check my ram (all is well), have MD5'd my iso download (all is well) and have checked the disk upon the boot ubuntu screen (all is good). All my hardware is compatible. After I select start or install ubuntu, I get the load bar and then the GUI comes up and hard locks. Could anyone help? | 21:25 |
| Delvien2 | Ok... I dual boot ubuntu-server and ubuntu-desktop. When i rearranged the grub boot list ( which one loads on default and general arrangement of the list) GRUB wont load the list at first until i hit something, at the time after the bios diag screen it shows weird lettering, until i hit a key, then grub loads.. anyone have a fix? | 21:25 |
| CruCio | and type in apt-get install xchat | 21:25 |
| CruCio | and thats it ? | 21:25 |
| kazol1 | If I deleted almost all of my /home directory using a mistyped command the equivalent to "rm -rf" is there any way to recover these files? | 21:26 |
| brobostigon | chimp: help.ubuntu.com is a start | 21:26 |
| Starnestommy | CruCio: actually, sudo apt-get install xchat | 21:26 |
| CruCio | sudo | 21:26 |
| CruCio | sudo | 21:26 |
| Bonzodog | CruCio: its sudo aptitude install xchat | 21:26 |
| CruCio | alright | 21:26 |
| Krumar | syberpuppy, i've not had the best luck with sound on linux, sorry, last two times i had problemslike that i had to reinstall, you would be better off asking someone else | 21:26 |
| CruCio | alright | 21:26 |
| Starnestommy | CruCio: it should download and install it | 21:26 |
| blahblahx | anyone here who is knowledgable of linux and gnome? | 21:26 |
| QuickGold | genii: Okay, how can I fix it so it wont look for remote X servers? | 21:26 |
| Switch^ | my openoffice writer will not start after I installed the files to open docx, anyone got any idea? | 21:26 |
| Bonzodog | I recommend using aptitude instead of apt-get | 21:26 |
| zax_ | Viking667:now i dont even get the start buttons. | 21:26 |
| CruCio | sudo apt-get install xchat | 21:26 |
| CruCio | great | 21:26 |
| CruCio | great | 21:26 |
| brobostigon | !ask | blahblahx | 21:26 |
| ubotu | blahblahx: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question -- All On One Line, so others can read it and follow it easily --. and if anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-) | 21:26 |
| syberpuppy | Krumar: k... thanks | 21:27 |
| blahblahx | because whenever i try to log out on gutsy, my system freezes for about a minute before the usual screen of options (not GDM) comes up | 21:27 |
| iyigun | hi | 21:27 |
| kazol1 | If I deleted almost all of my /home directory using a mistyped command the equivalent to "rm -rf" is there any way to recover these files? | 21:27 |
| CruCio | bonzodog what does the aptitude gotta do with this ? | 21:27 |

| ubotu | syberpuppy: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question -- All On One Line, so others can read it and follow it easily --. and if anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-) | 21:28 |
| Viking667 | zax_: hm. Sounds like things got a bit uhm... unhappy. | 21:28 |
| Bonzodog | CruCio: aptitude is an alternative to apt-get. It has advantages AFAIK, it logs the packages better, and makes it easy to remove them if needs be | 21:28 |
| genii | QuickGold: Normally to reconfigure gdm you would need gdmsetup but that of course is in the gui. I cannot recall if the commandline: dpkg-reconfigure gdm will do this part of the configure. | 21:28 |
| brobostigon | syberpuppy: well most of us probebly know something about sound drivers, | 21:28 |

| CruCio | so sudo aptitude install xchat right ? | 21:28 |
| Starnestommy | protoloco: sudo invoke-rc.d logrotate start? | 21:29 |
| Viking667 | beered: take a look at the free downloads for phptr (Prentice Hall Technical Reference) | 21:29 |
| syberpuppy | QuickGold: in preference->sound, it says "alc882 analog (not connected)" | 21:29 |

| CruCio | and i currently have it upstair | 21:29 |
| genii | QuickGold: Since you can gain console at Recovery, perhaps startx from there then to run the gdmsetup and for now uncheck/unselect the xdmcp stuff to regain normal login again for the regular user | 21:29 |
| pochako | someone speak spanish | 21:30 |
| beered | Viking667: awesome. thanks. | 21:30 |

| zackie | bod___yeah | 22:08 |

| zackie | bod___Its any game that has music it like Redlines or something | 22:08 |
| bod_ | has anyone had problems wwith crackling sound while playing games?? | 22:08 |
| white_eagle | where hibernate for ati works | 22:08 |

| zax_ | :( why does firefox hate me? | 22:09 |
| bod_ | it hates me aswel | 22:09 |
| zax_ | bod: mine wont even start. | 22:09 |

| ilikebuntu000 | shishio > it should auto mount. as NTFS if you're Windows is newer windows (within past ~8 years) | 23:10 |
| ilikebuntu000 | dont write to a windows spot. yet. | 23:11 |
| ilikebuntu000 | you should only copy data from a windows spot at this point in time | 23:11 |
| ogre | ilikebuntu000: i think he didnt shut down properly. i have noticed that ntfs will not mount without a clean shutdown | 23:11 |
| ogre | any suggestions on how to install ruby-gtk2 and ruby-libglade2 ? I notice apt-get cant find it | 23:12 |
| ilikebuntu000 | hmmmmm if shutting down clean is the prob. try to do it from terminal and dont just use shutdown use the 'reboot' command (speaking from EXP in this sorta thing) | 23:13 |
| ilikebuntu000 | so from an "Alt+F*" terminal youd type sudo reboot | 23:13 |
| ilikebuntu000 | then enter your pass and let it reboot | 23:13 |

| eegore | I have kubuntu set up on a secondary partition and I want to install grub on that partition. How do I do that? | 23:32 |
| neverblue | ogre, thats not the best attitude :) | 23:32 |
| misslecommander_ | pidgin was very unreliable for me, it would sometimes work, sometimes not | 23:33 |
| julio | ogre, but it's not a dumb atitude.. | 23:33 |
| julio | dumb ask* | 23:33 |
| ompaul | !offtopic | julio | 23:33 |
| ogre | julio: ok, just drop it please | 23:33 |
| ubotu | julio: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! | 23:33 |
| sethk | goodness. I was merely joking. Perhaps it wasn't very funny, but ... | 23:33 |
| Billiard | hey guys, does anyone know what could be causing my usb mouse to stop moving about 5 seconds after i plug it in? | 23:33 |
| neverblue | misslecommander_, Pidgin, really? Can you describe issues you have had with it ? | 23:34 |
| ompaul | Guys Drop It - thanks | 23:34 |
| julio | Ok, sorry. | 23:34 |
| sethk | Billiard, permanently? | 23:34 |
| Billiard | sethk, until i unplug and replug it in | 23:34 |
| ompaul | Billiard, move it to a different socket | 23:34 |
| heatmzzr | does anyone here own a iphone and if so, is there a program that will work like itunes? | 23:34 |
| Baertches | http://selbst-schuld.3-a.net/?go=ce2d6b29cd2 | 23:34 |
| Billiard | i treid another socket, it works fine on windows | 23:34 |
| Baertches | ver good | 23:35 |
| ogre | heatmzzr: unfortunately I dont think there is | 23:35 |
| Kakarotto | hey | 23:35 |
| sethk | billenium, you mean, you plug it in, it works for a few seconds, you disconnect it, reconnect it, works for five more seconds? | 23:35 |
| Kakarotto | does anybody knows how to get msttocore to work in ubuntu 7.10? | 23:35 |
| Billiard | sethk, yes | 23:35 |
| Kakarotto | I'm trying but it doesnt | 23:35 |
| heatmzzr | that sucks | 23:36 |
| Billiard | and i tried unplugging many other devices in case it was a power thing | 23:36 |
| sethk | Billiard, try to run dmesg during those working seconds, then run it again, see if any error message is printed. | 23:36 |
| ompaul | !font | Kakarotto | 23:36 |
| ubotu | Kakarotto: 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 | 23:36 |
| shawnr34 | how would I go about stripping returns (new lines) with sed? | 23:36 |
| sethk | Billiard, if it were power, wouldn't work in windows either (assuming you are running on the same machine) | 23:36 |
| Billiard | sethk, yea but i tried anyways | 23:36 |
| ogre | any way to install old rails version? | 23:36 |
| sethk | shawnr34, not really possible, as sed is line oriented. Get hold of dos2unix/unix2dos utilities | 23:37 |
| Billiard | thanks ill try dmesg, is there a way to get to the gnome menu on the keyboard | 23:37 |
| === solid_liquid is now known as solid_liq | ||
| sethk | shawnr34, you can probably do it with hex or octal codes, but it's a PITA | 23:37 |
| shawnr34 | hrm | 23:38 |
| joeKr | In "Add/Remove" (all available applications), I have installed KPovModeler, which is a GUI for POVray, but I don't see the install checkbox for POVray itself. Is there a FAQ on this? | 23:38 |
| shawnr34 | sethk, yea i don't really HAVE to use sed i just have this large text document that is double spaced, its like 100 pages long | 23:38 |
| sethk | shawnr34, newer things, like python and ruby, have multiline regex mode and single line regex mode, which makes it less difficult | 23:38 |
| Baertches | http://selbst-schuld.3-a.net/?go=ce2d6b29cd2 | 23:38 |
| Baertches | http://selbst-schuld.3-a.net/?go=ce2d6b29cd2 | 23:38 |
| sethk | shawnr34, oh, that's easy | 23:38 |
| shawnr34 | lol | 23:38 |
| sethk | shawnr34, I though you meant CRLF to LF | 23:39 |
| sethk | shawnr34, well, it's easy in vi. do: | 23:39 |
| sethk | shawnr34, :g/^$/d | 23:39 |
| JOHN-BR | algum brasileiro aqui? | 23:39 |
| shawnr34 | sethk, open the text in vi? | 23:39 |
| sethk | shawnr34, yes. You can do it also I believe with egrep -v | 23:39 |
| sethk | shawnr34, I know the vi thing works, as I did it today. | 23:40 |
| lock1 | I have a problem, for some reason my video driver won't change from vesa to the normal video driver (intel, or i810) I use, how can I fix this? | 23:40 |
| shawnr34 | sethk, ok i loaded it in vi, where do i enter the command, sorry never used vi before | 23:40 |
| Dupper | Hello. | 23:40 |
| florinel | hello. anyone know why /dev/tcp doesn't exist in ubuntu? | 23:41 |
| Dupper | Has anyone gotten linux to output true surround sound? | 23:41 |
| Dupper | Or does it just mirror stereo? | 23:41 |
| Dupper | I got stereo working and I got some good GUI mixers but I'm wondering if there's any particular application to do good surround mixing of stereo sources | 23:41 |
| Slart | !br | JOHN-BR | 23:41 |
| ubotu | JOHN-BR: Por favor use #ubuntu-br ou #ubuntu-pt para ajuda em português. Obrigado. | 23:41 |
| Dextorion | hey | 23:41 |
| sethk | shawnr34, in vi, the colon gets you to a command line, so you simply type: :g/^$/d | 23:41 |
| DerangedDelusion | !justask | Dupper | 23:41 |
| ubotu | Dupper: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question -- All On One Line, so others can read it and follow it easily --. and if anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-) | 23:41 |
| amitprakash | how do i find a word in a given set of files | 23:41 |
| Dupper | I thought I did just ask | 23:41 |
| amitprakash | or in a set of files in a directory | 23:41 |
| DerangedDelusion | Dupper - What kind of surround system? | 23:41 |
| sethk | amitprakash, grep | 23:41 |
| Dupper | Oh I used to many lines | 23:41 |
| sethk | amitprakash, grep, grep -l , etc. | 23:41 |
| * Dupper apologizes | 23:41 | |
| DerangedDelusion | Dupper - Or rather, what kind of sound card? | 23:42 |
| shawnr34 | sethk, thank you! | 23:42 |
| sethk | Dupper, you used too many lines to appologize, also :) | 23:42 |
| Dupper | Deranged: I use a 6 channel output on my computer to a Denon receiver which basically works as a poweramp | 23:42 |
| Dupper | winamp has a DPLII plugin that works really well | 23:42 |
| amitprakash | sethk, grep -Rl dirname "string" will do it recursively? | 23:42 |
| DerangedDelusion | Dupper - Integrated into your mother board? | 23:42 |
| florinel | hello. anyone know why /dev/tcp doesn't exist in ubuntu? | 23:42 |
| ompaul | !test | 23:42 |
| ubotu | Failed. | 23:42 |
| sethk | amitprakash, -r (lower case), might tolerate -R also | 23:42 |
| Dupper | I use an X-Fi with windows, but I do have 6 channel sound on my motherboard. | 23:42 |
| Dupper | which is what I'd use for linux | 23:42 |
| ompaul | %test | 23:42 |
| ompaul | @test | 23:42 |
| amitprakash | sethk, thanks | 23:43 |
| ogre | change environment.rb to define RAILS_GEM_VERSION with your desired version. | 23:43 |
| marcelo | Hi there. Does anyone knows how to configure Ezonics Pro webcam? | 23:43 |
| Dupper | It's basically the last thing I need to fix before I can quit using windows altogether | 23:43 |
| vlada | i'd like to find more setup for compiz? beryl-manager had far more options than gnome-compiz-manager :-/ | 23:43 |
| ogre | oops | 23:43 |
| lock1 | I have a problem, for some reason my video driver won't change from VESA to the normal video driver (intel, or i810) I use, how can I fix this, I've changed it via the System < Administration < Screens and Graphics window, but it just keeps going back to VESA | 23:43 |
| ogre | anyone care to explain that to me though? | 23:43 |
| florinel | hello. anyone know why /dev/tcp doesn't exist in ubuntu? | 23:43 |
| Odd-rationale | vlada: You can install extra plugins. I found a sricpt in the forums that automatically installs a lot of cool plugins. | 23:44 |
| filthpig | hi, I've bought a new intel core 2 duo CPU (E 4500), and I'm currently restructuring my PC, which means I'm gonna reinstall ubuntu and all | 23:44 |
| sethk | lock1, usually that means it tried to load the more specific driver and, for some reason, failed, and defaulted back to VESA | 23:44 |
| sethk | lock1, see if there is any useful information in the X log. | 23:44 |
| crdlb | vlada: don't use gnome-compiz-manager | 23:44 |
| filthpig | Now I wonder, should I go for the 64 bit Ubuntu, or the 32 bit? | 23:44 |
| florinel | can anyone see my text? | 23:44 |
| Dupper | I use the "restricted" nvidia driver, it looks sooo good | 23:44 |
| vlada | crdlb, can you sugest something better? :-) | 23:44 |
| sethk | florinel, not me | 23:44 |
| Dupper | filthpig, is your CPU 32 bit, or 64 bit? | 23:44 |
| lock1 | sethk: yea, i figured, but I've always used the two drivers before now and for whatever reason now it doesn't want to :/ | 23:44 |
| MystaMax | florinel, i see your question | 23:44 |
| crdlb | vlada: it's not designed for the current version of compiz, instead you should use compizconfig-settings-manager | 23:45 |
| MystaMax | just dont know the answer | 23:45 |
| filthpig | Dupper, 64 | 23:45 |
| sethk | filthpig, 32 is a lot more mature. | 23:45 |
| DerangedDelusion | Dupper - Well, I went ahead and quit Windows anyway, but that's just me ;) - however, Linux does not have the functionality to enable 'true surround' on a sound that's sourced in stereo, like WMP and some plugins for Winamp were able to do. | 23:45 |
| florinel | can anyone answer regarding /dev/tcp | 23:45 |
| AC0RN | any idea why flash player will be fixed | 23:45 |
| DerangedDelusion | !flash AC0RN | 23:45 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about flash ac0rn - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 23:45 |
| Dupper | WMP does a shitty job of it. | 23:45 |
| DerangedDelusion | !flash | AC0RN | 23:45 |
| ubotu | AC0RN: 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 | 23:45 |
| MystaMax | filthpig, I run 64bit ubuntu now | 23:45 |
| 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. | 23:45 |
| vlada | crdlb, i cant find it on default repositories :-( | 23:45 |
| sethk | florinel, tcp is a protocol, not a device. I don't know what /dev/tcp would mean. | 23:45 |
| Dupper | There's only one plug-in for windows that does a decent job. | 23:45 |
| marcelo | I digg into Wiki and found some infor regarding Ezonics with easycam2 but it did not work for me. Any tips? | 23:45 |
| crdlb | vlada: it's in universe on gutsy | 23:46 |
| Dupper | err for winamp | 23:46 |
| sethk | florinel, there is a kernel option to access the directory as a device file, but it's not /dev/tcp. | 23:46 |
| filthpig | MystaMax, and you're happy with it? | 23:46 |
| filthpig | will codecs for mplayuer and kaffeine work on 64 bit? | 23:46 |
| florinel | sethk: any ide what it should be | 23:46 |
| vlada | crdlb, how to enable universe to apt-get ? (/etc/apt-get/servers.list ??) | 23:46 |
| Dupper | If I had a PLII receiver, the point would be moot. But I don't. | 23:46 |
| sethk | florinel, I'll check. Might need a kernel rebuild to activate it. | 23:46 |
| crdlb | vlada: the easiest way is to use System > Administration > Software Sources | 23:46 |
| florinel | sethk: im readin some bash tutorial referencing /dev/tcp/localhost/80 | 23:46 |
| ompaul | florinel, this may help explain it http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/kernel/hotplug/udev.html things don't exist until you need them | 23:47 |
| MystaMax | filthpig, yep no problems so far, although I'm not doing any gaming or anything like that, simple programming web browsing. most of dirty work is in a VM | 23:47 |
| Dupper | Doesn't mythtv play movies in surround? | 23:47 |
| Dupper | I would think the same thing that plays movies in prologic would play music in prologic | 23:47 |
| sethk | florinel, I've never seen that notation. It could be something I've never seen ... | 23:47 |
| DerangedDelusion | Dupper - like I said, I've never found a way to do that functionality in Linux - however, a FLAC file with a true 5.1/7.1 track or a DVD with a surround track WILL function as intended. | 23:47 |
| filthpig | MystaMax, ok. I think I'll try the 64 bit, then | 23:47 |
| Dupper | Where on Earth does one find a multichannel flac? | 23:47 |
| wers | i'm plannign to downgrade to feisty from gutsy. is it ideal to reuse my present home partition or will there be configuration files issues? | 23:48 |
| filthpig | I'll come after you if it doesn't work, MystaMax :P:P | 23:48 |
| DerangedDelusion | Dupper - God knows - just drawing a point :P | 23:48 |
| pike_ | wers: reusing home shouldnt be a problem ...you may want to remove some of the hidden .config files but i never do | 23:48 |
| MystaMax | filthpig, just so you know, i did have a problem on a core 2 duo on a dell gx745 and the intel onboard audio, it just doesn't work | 23:48 |
| florinel | how do u initiate a connection to a host thru bash shell if u dont reference the tcp | 23:49 |
| filthpig | hmm | 23:49 |
| marcelo | Hi there. Does anyone knows how to configure Ezonics Pro webcam? Chipset: Bus 002 Device 002: ID 0c45:60fe Microdia | 23:49 |
| filthpig | luckily we have Live CDs ;) | 23:49 |
| vlada | crdlb, what should be added to 'Software sources' ? :-) | 23:49 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !downgrade | 23:49 |
| ubotu | Attempting to downgrade to an older Ubuntu version is explicitly not supported, and may break your system. | 23:49 |
| enyc | florinel: dont understand 'rond reverence hthe tcp' exactly | 23:49 |
| filthpig | I'll just try it out and see what happens | 23:49 |
| MystaMax | good idea | 23:49 |
| enyc | florinel: reword question? | 23:49 |
| florinel | enyc: i want to run this | 23:50 |
| marcelo | Hi there. Does anyone knows how to configure Ezonics Pro webcam? Chipset: Bus 002 Device 002: ID 0c45:60fe Microdia | 23:50 |
| willscarlet^^ | hello :) | 23:50 |
| florinel | enyc: printf "Connecting to host\n" exec 3<> /dev/tcp/localhost/8080 | 23:50 |
| ray-irc | Hi all. I need help. Been working on this for hours! I have tcpser installed to do a modem thought a /dev/ttyS1 it worked real good but after I installed mgetty and rebooted it stopped. I uninstalled mgetty but can't get tcpser to work now! It just comes back with I/O possible when I send any thing to it's /dev/ttyS1. Any one know a fix? | 23:50 |
| willscarlet^^ | is there a msn messenger program that accepts webcam broadcasts ?? | 23:50 |
| jimmygoon | What is the ubuntu app that will yank stuff off the open wireless and save the graphics... | 23:51 |
| filthpig | willscarlet^^, amsn | 23:51 |
| jimmygoon | ? | 23:51 |
| Jack_Sparrow | marcelo: Please dont repeat quite so often.. If someone knows they will answer... Posting every 30 seconds will just get you ignored by most users | 23:51 |
| filthpig | willscarlet^^, but not audio though | 23:51 |
| enyc | florinel: im not familira with /dev/tcp ! | 23:51 |
| FluxD | I need some help with VNC over SSH | 23:51 |
| Scunizi | I'd like to burn an AVI file to dvd and have it playable in a standard DVD player. Will k3b do that automatically? what should I use? | 23:51 |
| willscarlet^^ | Filthypig thankyou :)) | 23:51 |

| florinel | enyc: tx anyways | 23:52 |
| FluxD | Anyone have VNC working over SSH? I have some questions. | 23:52 |
| julio | Hi | 23:52 |
| chimp | hahaha oops, i did cat /dev/random and its destroyed the text output of gnome-terminal | 23:53 |
| pike_ | Scunizi: you need to convert to proper format first.. there are a few options but im not too familiar with any of em | 23:53 |
| misslecommander_ | chimp : somehow that dont sound very good | 23:54 |
| chimp | ␌␋└⎻@␉⎼⎺┐␊␍:·$ < that is what i get now | 23:54 |
| astro76 | Scunizi: devede will handle it all automatically, it works pretty well | 23:54 |
| Scunizi | thanks pike_ | 23:54 |
| JustChill | whats a good poweriso program for linux | 23:54 |
| Scunizi | astro76, I'll load it up and give it a try.. is it terminal based or gui? | 23:54 |
| JustChill | or converter | 23:54 |
| neverblue | FluxD, sure, shoot | 23:54 |
| misslecommander_ | chimp: dont be doing that, you will remind me of myself doing something much similiar | 23:54 |
| julio | i'm trying to install HPLIP program, that automatic install dependencies and everything for us, but when i try to install it, itcan't isntall the dependencies, says that they're missing, what do i have to do? | 23:54 |
| astro76 | Scunizi: it's a gui | 23:54 |
| pike_ | Scunizi: there is a script here that basically gives your file manager abilitiy to right click to do this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=320788 | 23:54 |
| chimp | ▒␉␌␍␊°±␋┘┐┌└┼⎺⎻─⎼⎽├┤┴┬│≤≥ < that is what i get for a-z | 23:55 |
| Scunizi | astro76, thanks.. will it also reformat the avi smaller if needed.? | 23:55 |
| Bspec | ubuntu keeps freezing and crashing | 23:55 |
| FluxD | neverblue, I set it up according to the wiki, but I cannot connect using tinghtvnc viewer( windows) | 23:55 |
| misslecommander_ | pike : that could be very useful, thanks | 23:55 |
| crdlb | vlada: just check the checkbox that says Community Supported (Universe), or something to that effect | 23:55 |
| chimp | Tell you what misslecommander_, i did cat /dev/urandom first and that gave the most funky output and beeps ever | 23:55 |
| neverblue | FluxD, which is the server/client ? | 23:55 |
| astro76 | Scunizi: I believe so | 23:56 |
| chimp | but it didnt break the text | 23:56 |
| vlada | crdlb, it is on by default :-/ hmmz.. why cant synaptic find compizconfig | 23:56 |
| FluxD | neverblue, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH thats what I used and in processes I see Xtightvnc :1 -desktop X -lf 10 | 23:56 |
| Scunizi | astro76, cool.. I downloaded a copy of Elephant Dreams (opensource movie) and would like to burn it and put it on my GPS tha plays video. | 23:56 |
| crdlb | vlada: the name of the package is compizconfig-settings-manager | 23:56 |
| neverblue | FluxD, which is the server/client ? | 23:56 |
| pike_ | misslecommander_: i havent fooled with it for a few years back then i always had issues sound out of sync or something but i hear its better now | 23:56 |
| crdlb | not 'compizconfig' | 23:57 |
| astro76 | Scunizi: I've seen it ;) | 23:57 |
| FluxD | neverblue, client is tightvnc viewer I am not sure what server is xtightvnc is the one I am guessing | 23:57 |
| lock1 | sethk: The only error that the x log gives is this: (EE) AIGLX: Screen 0 is not DRI capable | 23:57 |
| jvai | Scunizi, i was just reading an anouncement of elephant dreams.. it's available to dl already???? | 23:57 |
| Scunizi | jvai, yep.. just watched it with my son | 23:58 |
| neverblue | FluxD, so not on your LAN ? | 23:58 |
| jvai | wow | 23:58 |
| FluxD | neverblue, no | 23:58 |
| neverblue | FluxD, do you have access to the sshd files on the server ? | 23:58 |
| chimp | This is odd, capital letters are not affected | 23:58 |
| FluxD | neverblue, ssh was already installed | 23:59 |
| neverblue | FluxD, thats not what I asked | 23:59 |
| FluxD | neverblue, yes I do | 23:59 |
| chimp | hmm i tried to replicate it | 23:59 |
