|---|---|---|
| andreas | hey is there a way to get the microphone to work on my laptop? | 00:00 |
| Dr_willis | y_, runing wires would help a lot i bet. :P | 00:00 |
| Daenyth | Francis: I still recommend using rockbox | 00:00 |
| phroughy | Francis: i have gotten banshee to sync with my ipod | 00:00 |
| y_ | Dr_willis -- hmm. You're probably right. | 00:00 |
| Francis | Rockbox, on their site says it won't run on a touch | 00:00 |
| velko | dkbg, the uid is more important. you can match the gid if you like because it's nicer | 00:00 |
| Francis | So I guess thats out the window | 00:00 |
| Daenyth | Francis: that's a shame | 00:00 |
| wimpies | need some help with xorg. installed new Motherboard, Rebooted in linux all was OK, rebooted again and now my resolution of the display is all wrong. AFAIK no errors in xorg.0.log. Anybody ??? | 00:00 |
| dkbg | velko: and then do chgrp -R /home/user I guess? | 00:00 |
| Daenyth | Francis: oh well, gtkpod/amarok/banshee should work | 00:00 |
| fale | hi, I have installed kdelibs-doc. How can I read the documentation? | 00:00 |
| Dr_willis | y_, of couese i regularry tranfer 8+gb files around my network - My slow wireless wont cut it for me. | 00:01 |
| Daenyth | fale: try "man man" | 00:01 |
| ryanakca | how can I make everything in directory/ that isn't a subdirectory non-executable? | 00:01 |
| phroughy | Francis: i rocommend banshee personally | 00:01 |
| fale | Daenyth: ok, thx | 00:01 |
| bod_ | where can i get grime? | 00:01 |
| y_ | Dr_willis -- I think changing the hardware setup is definitely in order. 20 client machiens all using wifi is a little nuts. | 00:01 |
| martyn | Daenyth - only ONE time?!! I used to be pretty pro MS (sorry), but some people I found very influential and privacy rights (or wrongs) of MS quite disturbing. Couldn't move the mountain so found a new one to climb. | 00:01 |
| velko | dkbg, i've never used chgrp lol. but it seems as if something is missing from your command - the group name :-) | 00:01 |
| y_ | Dr_willis -- I'm just wondering what mess to fix first at this lab. | 00:01 |
| Daenyth | bod_: grime as in related to scumm? I didn't know it was done :D | 00:01 |
| soldats | wimpies, did you try setting the correct resolution in the desktop settings menu | 00:01 |
| Francis | K hopefully you will be able to answer my final question, if I backup to cd the music I have purchase from iTunes can I restore it on one of those programs? (Sorry if im being a pain) | 00:01 |
| y_ | Dr_willis I'm trying to setup LDAP but got stuck | 00:01 |
| Daenyth | martyn: it was a lot of low-level stuff and then a final straw | 00:01 |
| Daenyth | Francis: no | 00:02 |
| Dr_willis | y_, yep. Sounds like fun. There is that edubuntu release/variant thats designed for that sort of setup i belive | 00:02 |
| Daenyth | well | 00:02 |
| bod_ | Daenyth, grime is a grub graphics editor | 00:02 |
| Daenyth | sortof | 00:02 |
| y_ | Dr_willis -- that's what I've got... but it doesn't share users. (!!!) | 00:02 |
| Francis | That's the only think I'm worried about, loosing music I've paid for | 00:02 |
| wimpies | soldats : did not change it but will see ... | 00:02 |
| Daenyth | Francis: if you have .aac files, the answer is no, they use apple's DRM, which means you cannot play them. If you burn to an audio cd and then re-rip, you can | 00:02 |
| Daenyth | or if you bought ones without DRM in the first place | 00:02 |
| Daenyth | Francis: it's really pretty trivial to get a good music collection with google and bittorrent | 00:03 |
| dkbg | velko: yes I have realised, but it matched the chown command you gave earlier :P | 00:03 |
| Dr_willis | y_, never notic4ed. :) i just have a 4 pc home lan. | 00:03 |
| Daenyth | and you'll probably get better sound quality to boot | 00:03 |
| Daenyth | itunes is a massive scam | 00:03 |
| y_ | hmpf. ok. | 00:03 |
| y_ | Anyone in here ever use LDAP with Ubuntu? | 00:03 |
| Francis | They are .m4p and when I view them on windows there is a padlock on them | 00:03 |
| dkbg | velko: and I just read that you can specify both user and group in the chown command by seperating them with a colon | 00:03 |
| velko | dkbg, ok. my fault. sorry | 00:03 |
| Daenyth | y_: no, but I might be setting up an ubuntu machine at work which will need it | 00:03 |
| Daenyth | so if you have any advice, I'm all ears | 00:04 |
| Dr_willis | Daenyth, ill raise your statement.. The Music Industry is a massive scam | 00:04 |
| velko | dkbg, yep, this is what i always do | 00:04 |
| wimpies | soldats : hmm, can scale up to 1240x800 but my res is 1240x1024. Noticed in xorg.log that 1240x1024 was not selected but why ? Worked before ??? | 00:04 |
| Francis | Yeah I have only really used iTunes when been bought gift vouchers | 00:04 |
| LjL | i'll raise | 00:04 |
| LjL | !ot | 00:04 |
| ubotu | #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! | 00:04 |
| y_ | Dr_willis -- good luck. got stuck on the tutuorials I saw. | 00:04 |
| Daenyth | Francis: most likely DRM, you cannot play them without jumping through hoops. I recommend downloading them again off of bittorrent | 00:04 |

| wimpies | soldats : yes sorry 1280 i meant. Why does he not select this resoltion. Worked before ! | 00:06 |
| Daenyth | matt3453: they may also blacklist wget, so you should check the -U flag also | 00:06 |
| matt3453 | yea, did that | 00:06 |
| matt3453 | --user-agent=mozilla | 00:06 |

| soldats | wimpies, is it possible for you to check your monitors manual and make sure all the refresh rates are correctly placed in your xorg.conf | 00:06 |
| matt3453 | Daenyth, haha, nice, i like it | 00:07 |

| Jack_Sparrow | dk4nno: Kust ask your question in as much detail as possible | 00:21 |
| Dr_willis | bod_, the command would be 'make install' :) | 00:21 |
| dreamnid | support: Alternatively, you can just edit /etc/apache2/sites-available/default to your needs | 00:21 |
| bod_ | Dr_willis, yer, but make install wot? | 00:21 |
| Dr_willis | bod_, you may need a ' sudo make install ' | 00:21 |

| dkbg | velko: I did restart actually because I thought that too, but oddly it didn't fix it | 00:21 |
| Jack_Sparrow | bod_: There is no reason for a grub editor... any text editor can let you do grub | 00:21 |
| Dr_willis | bod_, You are making this WAY too hard.. the exact command is 'make install' :) or 'sudo make install' | 00:22 |

| bod_ | Dr_willis, if i send you an image,. would you edit it to work as a grub splash image for me,. ive been tryin for about an hour now | 00:32 |
| phroughy | bajaboy1010: well, we probably want to get the terminal working too | 00:32 |
| Katamisan | Basically, I'm right below root. | 00:32 |
| Dr_willis | I find sysnaptic to be much better. :) | 00:32 |
| ubuntuo | how do you write music to a cd using Ubuntu? | 00:32 |
| phroughy | Katamisan: what error do you get? | 00:32 |
| Katamisan | As in, I have full administrative rights and everything. | 00:32 |
| rsk | ubuntuo: k3b | 00:32 |
| Dr_willis | bod_, I dont use lame splach images. :) so no. | 00:32 |
| Katamisan | Yet when I start up Adept, it tells me that I need higher administrative rights. | 00:32 |
| Dr_willis | bod_, i dont bend over backwards for themes or other eyecandy things like that. | 00:32 |
| Katamisan | I tried to access it using the Sudo command, but I don't know what to type afrer Sudo. | 00:32 |
| Katamisan | Other that "sudo adept manager". | 00:33 |
| soldats | Dr_willis, lol me neither :P | 00:33 |
| Dr_willis | !find adept | 00:33 |
| ubotu | Found: adept, adept-batch, adept-common, adept-installer, adept-manager (and 2 others) | 00:33 |
| phroughy | Katamisan: try "kdesudo adept_manager maybe? | 00:33 |
| bod_ | Dr_willis, ok,.,. what do i do about the error from ./configure,.,. and i love graph stuff | 00:33 |
| Joeseph | hello, I'm about to reinstall my XP and was just making sure I can dual install XP on my C: drive and Ubuntu on my G:\ Drive | 00:33 |
| Dr_willis | bod_, no idea. Theres various grub/splash howtos out there. | 00:33 |
| bod_ | drkk ty | 00:33 |
| bod_ | Dr_willis, kk ty | 00:33 |
| Katamisan | bash: kdesudo: command not found | 00:33 |
| Katamisan | Joseph, yeah. | 00:34 |
| Katamisan | You'll just have to set up 2 partitions. | 00:34 |
| Katamisan | *Joeseph | 00:34 |
| Joeseph | 2 partitions on the G: Drive *Katamisan | 00:34 |
| phroughy | Katamisan: oh, maybe its kdesu | 00:34 |
| soldats | wimpies, well you can try to rebuild your xorg.conf file then see if it helps the if still necessary insert the correct refresh rates and modes. you can rebuild with "sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg" | 00:34 |
| Katamisan | I... think it worked. | 00:35 |
| Katamisan | It gave me a big error message, but the "Enter administrative password" window popped up. | 00:35 |
| jamisnemo | how do I install xfce/xubuntu over a kubuntu install? | 00:35 |
| phroughy | Katamisan: what was the error? | 00:35 |
| phroughy | jamisnemo: sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop | 00:36 |
| wimpies | soldats : is nv the correct driver for nvidia ? | 00:36 |
| Katamisan | It's... pretty big. | 00:36 |
| Katamisan | ...WAIT. | 00:36 |
| Katamisan | It worked. ^.^ | 00:36 |
| phroughy | Katamisan: oh, did you type it into a terminal? | 00:36 |
| curt | I just purchased my 6 year old a new pc .. I want to limit the internet by time of day (no mornings and no evenings) and only want to allow certain websites. I think that I can manage all of the above with iptables if I install the time modules but is there an easier way to "kid safe" his new computer? | 00:36 |
| soldats | wimpies, i believe so. did you check in the menu for restricted drivers | 00:36 |
| phroughy | Katamisan: whenever you launch an x program in terminal it outputs lots of stuff | 00:36 |
| jeffMASTERflex | jamisnemo: sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop | 00:36 |
| Katamisan | And now, I depart. Just like every other new person does when he enters a new server. | 00:36 |
| bajaboy1010 | what dose it mean when this pops up | 00:36 |
| bajaboy1010 | "dpkg: requested operation requires superuser privilege" | 00:36 |
| phroughy | Katamisan: bye! glad i could help | 00:36 |
| y_ | Does anyone know if an upgrade disk will allow me to change the root password? | 00:36 |
| Katamisan | Yeah, I typed it in a terminal. | 00:37 |
| Katamisan | Thanks. ^.^ | 00:37 |
| phroughy | bajaboy1010: put a sudo before it | 00:37 |
| IdleOne | bajaboy1010, use sudo | 00:37 |
| bajaboy1010 | k | 00:37 |
| soldats | curt, normally you can edit most of that with the hosts file in /etc/hosts | 00:37 |
| Katamisan | Wait. | 00:37 |
| bajaboy1010 | ahh | 00:37 |
| Katamisan | I was wrong. XD | 00:37 |
| Joeseph | so If I have XP on C: and Ubuntu on G:, I will have to partition my G: drive for ubuntu? | 00:37 |
| phroughy | Katamisan: what do you mean? | 00:38 |
| soldats | curt, plus if you have a router you can edit the times of internet useage there as well and block sites | 00:38 |
| curt | soldats, I now that I can disallow sites in /etc/hosts pointing them to localhost but is it really capable of more than that? | 00:38 |
| Katamisan | I can access the list of packages I can install, I just... can't install them. | 00:38 |
| soldats | curt, see my second post | 00:38 |
| wimpies | soldats : was disabled enabled and rebooting now | 00:38 |
| phroughy | Katamisan: do you get an error? | 00:39 |
| soldats | wimpies, cool | 00:39 |
| curt | soldats, if I use the router .. then both my access and his are being limited. (I don't really have a bedtime) :0 | 00:39 |
| Katamisan | No error, just a window popping up saying I need administrative rights... when I do, in fact, have them. | 00:39 |
| Katamisan | When I try to install said packages, it won't let me. | 00:39 |
| Joeseph | okay, I'm about to do a system restore of XP on my C: drive, and then I'm going to install Ubuntu on G:, Will I have to partition G:, or just use the whole thing? | 00:39 |
| stargazer | how do i activate the multiverse ? (gutsy gibbon 7.19) | 00:40 |
| velko | Katamisan, do you use the first user (created while installing ubuntu) or another one? | 00:40 |
| phroughy | Katamisan: does it ask for your password? | 00:40 |
| Katamisan | Joeseph, just use the whole thing. | 00:40 |
| curt | soldats, maybe I will hack out the iptables rules .. it should only take a couple of hours to get it perfected. | 00:40 |
| Katamisan | phroughy, no. | 00:40 |
| soldats | curt, what brand router | 00:40 |
| LetsGo67 | My date sets itself incorrectly without my control, is there anything I can do to change that, please? | 00:40 |
| curt | soldats, netgear ws | 00:40 |
| Katamisan | velko, I use the first user. | 00:40 |
| Katamisan | By the way, Joeseph. | 00:41 |
| Joeseph | yes | 00:41 |
| Katamisan | From what I guess, you have two hard drives in your computer. | 00:41 |
| Joeseph | yes | 00:41 |
| RequinB5 | Joseph, you can parition it if you want, that is | 00:41 |
| Katamisan | So yeah, just go ahead and install Ubuntu on the G drive. | 00:41 |
| jamisnemo | phroughy: sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop gives back an error saying that package can't be found. Any ideas? | 00:41 |
| curt | soldats, funny thing about that is it has some biult-in child protection but I must use m$ for it to work (or to enable it as I recall) | 00:41 |
| soldats | curt, well if you log into your router is there an access/restrictions part. if so can you modify the access/restrictions for each computer ipaddress. i know on lynksys routers you can | 00:41 |
| phroughy | jamisnemo: do you have universe enabled? | 00:42 |
| jamisnemo | phroughy: uh probably not... | 00:42 |
| Aval0n | anyone know if on a linksys router if you can specify a port like 1000 have it point to an internal ip and port 10010? | 00:42 |
| Aval0n | or would it just pass that same port number through to the internal ips? | 00:42 |
| wimpies | soldats : back to 1280 !!! Thx | 00:42 |
| soldats | wimpies, lol awesome im glad | 00:42 |
| Katamisan | ...*Sigh* | 00:42 |
| Katamisan | Using the terminal. | 00:42 |
| hghghggh | how do i install CompizFusion on ubuntu 7.04? | 00:43 |
| phroughy | !universe | jamisnemo | 00:43 |

| nat6138 | sudo adept? | 00:43 |
| phroughy | sudo adept_manager | 00:43 |
| curt | soldats, thanks for the pointers .. I would like to stay and help out around here a bit but maybe some other time. (no promises but I have been known to intelligently help out from time to time over on #debian)) | 00:43 |
| soldats | hghghggh, basically you need to install ccsm because ubuntu comes with compiz installed the ccsm is the menu manager | 00:44 |
| pan__ | sudo apt-get remove Windows XP | 00:44 |
| nat6138 | lol | 00:44 |
| pan__ | :) | 00:44 |
| RequinB5 | if only it was that simple | 00:44 |
| nat6138 | Indeed. | 00:44 |
| soldats | curt, thats cool, but im too used to linksys routers and i had to do the same things you are trying to do but i did them with the router | 00:44 |
| dkbg | too many arguments given | 00:44 |
| phroughy | pan__: lol | 00:44 |
| phroughy | pan__: you forgot the quotes | 00:44 |
| Joeseph | I just thought of something.... Currently I have my Documents on my other Hard Drive G, will I want to copy them to somewhere first , put on ubuntu, and then Copy my Documents back? or what | 00:44 |
| Katamisan | ...Wait. | 00:44 |
| pan__ | yeah it's funny | 00:44 |
| hghghggh | i have berly installed by its crashes.. | 00:45 |
| pan__ | sudo apt-get remove Windows\ XP | 00:45 |
| curt | my sons refurbished Dell came with Vista and I donated to the trash bin :) .. thanks again. | 00:45 |
| nat6138 | Isn't beryl unsupported now? | 00:45 |
| phroughy | pan__: nice | 00:45 |
| soldats | !beryl > hghghggh | 00:45 |
| phroughy | nat6138: thats correct | 00:45 |
| Katamisan | Got a different bug. | 00:45 |
| Jack_Sparrow | nat6138: true | 00:45 |
| kahrytan | hghghggh➲ why not upgrade to 7.10? | 00:45 |
| phroughy | Katamisan: haha, bad day. what it is? | 00:45 |
| Katamisan | Er, error code. | 00:45 |
| hghghggh | 7.10 has to many bugs.. | 00:45 |
| Katamisan | Apparently, I already have another instance of Adept or something else like it running. | 00:45 |
| Katamisan | I'm running the Update Manager, so... | 00:46 |
| soldats | theres nothing wrong with 7.04 anyways | 00:46 |
| Katamisan | Could that be it? | 00:46 |
| kahrytan | hghghggh➲ like? | 00:46 |
| nat6138 | Could be, close the update manager, and try adept. | 00:46 |
| Katamisan | ...But I'm installing 183 updates. ;_; | 00:46 |
| nat6138 | Well, that's a problem. | 00:46 |
| Katamisan | XD | 00:46 |
| phroughy | Katamisan: yes. only one program can use dpkg at a time | 00:46 |
| soldats | hghghggh, well remove beryl the install compiz-fusion then install ccsm (compizconfig-settings-manager) | 00:46 |
| Katamisan | Well... I'll just wait for the Update Manager to finish. | 00:47 |
| phroughy | Katamisan: good idea :P | 00:47 |
| Katamisan | Another 15 minutes or so. | 00:47 |
| Tuari | dh -f shows one of my drives at 100 % full anyone now a command that will allow me to see the file and the amount of disk space they are using | 00:47 |

| phroughy | Katamisan: who? | 00:48 |
| phroughy | oh, ubuntu | 00:48 |
| Katamisan | (06:47:50 PM) ubuntu [n=ubuntu@75-138-184-201.dhcp.oxfr.ma.charter.com] entered the room. | 00:48 |
| Katamisan | It's most likely a bot. | 00:48 |
| phroughy | yeah | 00:48 |
| Katamisan | Ah. | 00:48 |
| LetsGo67 | My date sets itself incorrectly without my control, is there anything I can do to change that, please? | 00:48 |
| phroughy | can someone do a quick google for me (my x is broken...) | 00:49 |
| bajaboy1010 | look at your computer's clock kata | 00:49 |
| soldats | phroughy, what happened | 00:49 |
| RequinB5 | sure, phroughy, what do you need | 00:49 |
| pan__ | <phroughy> lynx | 00:49 |
| Katamisan | Man, this rocks. | 00:49 |
| phroughy | i'm using nvidia-glx, and the screen is just black (i tried lynx couldn't find what i was looking for) | 00:49 |
| pan__ | ok | 00:49 |
| don_ | Hey there. Is there a channel for Ubuntu Ultimate? | 00:49 |
| Katamisan | I tried to set up Ubuntu on this computer by partitioning the hard drive, to preserve Windows XP. | 00:49 |
| pan__ | i'll help too | 00:49 |
| phroughy | i have had this problem before, and the solution was something like option usedefault display | 00:49 |
| Katamisan | ...I accidentally corrupted it. | 00:50 |
| Katamisan | Wiped everything. | 00:50 |
| bkar | phroughy-> you can user the non gui browser w3m | 00:50 |
| bajaboy1010 | ouch | 00:50 |
| nat6138 | I seem to have bad luck with nividia. | 00:50 |
| Katamisan | So I wiped the hard drive, installed Ubuntu, and... | 00:50 |
| phroughy | well, i fixed it once, but i cant remeber how now. | 00:50 |
| pan__ | <Katamisan> that sounds ggod :) | 00:50 |
| Soar | Fwah | 00:50 |
| Katamisan | Well, parents weren't too happy about it. But now, my dad likes Ubuntu better than XP. XD | 00:50 |
| soldats | phroughy, you can try to rebuild your xorg.conf and see if it helps it might disregard your -glx though but then you can fix it later | 00:50 |
| Soar | I need some help | 00:50 |
| RequinB5 | phroughy - boot recovery mode to get a CLI | 00:50 |

| Kapace | is there a safe way to install ubuntu over an existing vista install, without messing anything up? | 00:51 |

| RequinB5 | phroughy - point taken. | 00:51 |
| Kapace | thanks | 00:51 |
| bajaboy1010 | what dose the ! mean in irc? | 00:51 |
| Katamisan | What's strange, though, is the fact that after wiping the hard drive, I couldn't seperate it into 2 partitions. | 00:52 |
| soldats | phroughy, theres a command to try and rebuild your xorg.conf automatically. | 00:52 |
| RequinB5 | It is a command to the bot | 00:52 |
| phroughy | it tells ubotu to say something | 00:52 |
| Katamisan | I tried all file systems. | 00:52 |
| bajaboy1010 | ah | 00:52 |
| Soar | Blah | 00:52 |
| kahrytan | Kapace➲ Safest No-Hassal way is to use dual hard drives | 00:52 |
| phroughy | soldats: i know | 00:52 |
| RequinB5 | phroughby - (sudo) dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 00:52 |
| Soar | This may seem stupid, but is ubuntu compatible with machines that run leopard as a main OS? | 00:52 |
| rsk | Soar: compatible how? | 00:53 |
| cosmodad | I guess he means processor-wise | 00:53 |
| Soar | Because, I tried at school where they had Tiger and an Intel processor and it worked | 00:53 |
| Soar | intel? | 00:53 |
| bajaboy1010 | I use a 2wire wireless card, but i can't get ubuntu to connect to my wifi. | 00:53 |
| Soar | Because I had run an old verson on my machine before | 00:54 |
| bajaboy1010 | is it my card or setup? | 00:54 |
| rsk | yes x86 will work | 00:54 |
| Soar | I use a power pc | 00:54 |
| RequinB5 | !wifi | bajaboy1010 | 00:54 |
| ubotu | bajaboy1010: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 00:54 |
| Soar | Alright | 00:54 |
| bajaboy1010 | thanks | 00:54 |
| rsk | ppc will work if you use the ppc version | 00:54 |
| cosmodad | Soar: if you use an old Mac with an IBM processor, you're out of luck. | 00:54 |
| Soar | And where can I attain that? | 00:54 |
| cosmodad | with x86 ubuntu, that is. PPC will work. | 00:54 |
| Soar | Is it in distro still? | 00:54 |
| RequinB5 | where does one usually put *.o firmware files in the file system? | 00:54 |
| Katamisan | ...Y'know, I do have some complaints towards Linux operating systems, but they're not directed towards the operating systems themselves. Rather, their marketing strategy. | 00:55 |
| Katamisan | It needs to commercialize more. | 00:55 |
| nat6138 | Squeeze is way too buggy for it's own good. | 00:55 |
| Soar | blech | 00:55 |
| Katamisan | But, that will be difficult. | 00:55 |
| Soar | Ill look it uo | 00:55 |
| Soar | *up | 00:55 |
| RequinB5 | Katamisan - great conversation, but off topic, try #ubuntu-offtopic | 00:55 |
| Soar | Thanks for the info | 00:55 |
| rsk | Katamisan: you are free to doo soo | 00:55 |
| Katamisan | ...Yeah, well... um... hey, look! A distraction! | 00:55 |

| nownot | ok im running ubuntu and ettercap isnt working, its not giving out ssl certs on my network. any ideas? | 00:56 |
| phroughy | i found it. i need to add "option 'usedisplaydevice' 'DFP'" | 00:56 |

| phroughy | to xorg.conf. aparently the driver tries to send the video to the external monitor, not the lappy lcd | 00:57 |
| RequinB5 | where would one normally put *.o firmware files in the filesystem | 00:57 |
| y_ | Can anyone help me determine what my netbios name is? | 00:57 |
| phroughy | RequinB5: /lib/firmware/ i beleive | 00:57 |
| drarem | when running a game server, to throw messages up like 'visit this website www.domain.net', do i need to run a cron job within a terminal? | 00:57 |
| phroughy | RequinB5: sometimes you need to put in in /lib/firmware/(kernal version) too | 00:57 |

| MagicFab | Is there any good guide on how to verify an Ubunut ISO gpg signatures ? What would you recommend ? | 01:00 |

| czr | any ideas on how to switch the default desktop backgrund to _all_ users in the system (including future ones). I've tried modifying various gconf-related files, to no avail. (gutsy) | 01:01 |

| Mm|Spunky | Anyways i do have a question about the bittorent client on Ubuntu 7.10. Why is it that it goes so slow for download speed? I mean on windows it foes fine. | 01:01 |
| sudobash | MMspunky use Utorrent with wine | 01:02 |
| sergiolib | hi, anyone that has a vostro laptop with ubuntu installed? | 01:02 |
| nat6138 | Mm| Spunky: Usually the one that comes with gnome is bad. There is several like, Deluge or Transmission. | 01:02 |
| travisat | for what it is worth in 7.10 I used the restricted nvidia driver and it works witn my 8800gts | 01:02 |
| Mm|Spunky | Utorrent is already supported with Linux yes? or is that what Wine is for? | 01:02 |
| soldats | ktorrent azureus | 01:02 |
| nat6138 | uTorrent is for windows, although it does run in Wine. | 01:03 |
| soldats | must use utorrent with wine | 01:03 |
| sudobash | it works well in wine | 01:03 |
| sudobash | I get fast speeds | 01:03 |
| sergiolib | i prefer transmission | 01:03 |
| sergiolib | o deluge | 01:03 |
| nat6138 | It's default in Hardy, and it's nice. | 01:03 |
| MagicFab | RequinB5, tx., interesting. | 01:03 |
| Mm|Spunky | alright well i'll try it | 01:03 |
| soldats | it also depends on how big the swarm is too | 01:04 |

| nat6138 | Yeah, you could try the live CD. | 01:06 |

| RequinB5 | Anyone have an idea where to put *.deb packages for storage? | 01:07 |
| soldats | !test > RequinB5 | 01:07 |
| nat6138 | Make a deb folder? | 01:07 |

| travisat | thats what I do | 01:07 |
| syntaxerror55 | nat6138: did you tell sergiolib "No, sorry"? | 01:07 |
| soldats | Rezagrats, eneable the multiverse in the xources.lst | 01:07 |
| syntaxerror55 | nat6138: just because you don't doesn't mean no one in here does. | 01:07 |

| Rezagrats | syntaxerror55: now what ? | 01:11 |
| travisat | RequinB5: really it doesn't matter just put it some place you wont loose it. I normally have a deb and a src dir in my home dir so I can put random crap like that | 01:11 |

| tcpdumpgod | okay travisat, thanks :) | 01:13 |

| Mm|Spunky | Terminal is not letting me type anything for some reason, i can copy and paste, but i can't type it. Why is this? | 01:13 |
| syntaxerror55 | Mm|Spunky: gnome-terminal or konsole? | 01:13 |
| tcpdumpgod | Im not running a 64Bit OS on this though... just the x86 arch Ubuntu distro. | 01:13 |
| Mm|Spunky | for Ubuntu 7.10 so i'm guessing Gnome | 01:13 |
| tomtt | the 7GB where my / (just system files, no /home) lives is almost full. Any tips/pointers on how to find out if there is anything lying around that is not needed? | 01:13 |
| travisat | tcpdumpgod: then the p4 for sure | 01:13 |
| syntaxerror55 | Mm|Spunky: yeah, it's gnome-terminal. Can you use virtual terminals? | 01:13 |
| Rezagrats | syntaxerror55: i can undo what i did already right ??? to save it as something else ? | 01:14 |
| Mm|Spunky | Explain on the virtual commands a little bit more please. | 01:14 |
| syntaxerror55 | Rezagrats: yup, if you backed it up. | 01:14 |
| Jack_Sparrow | tomtt: /var/cache/apt/archives has all the debs you have downloaded.. you can burn them to disk | 01:14 |
| travisat | Mm|Spunky: can you ctrl-alt-f2 to a commandline | 01:14 |
| Rezagrats | didn't back it up, but i can undo the deletion of the # right ? | 01:14 |
| syntaxerror55 | Mm|Spunky: type Ctrl+Alt+F6 and tell me what happens | 01:14 |
| syntaxerror55 | Rezagrats: sure. | 01:14 |
| syntaxerror55 | Rezagrats: now type sudo apt-get update into the terminal. | 01:15 |
| tcpdumpgod | cool travisat, thanks! | 01:15 |
| tcpdumpgod | :) | 01:15 |
| travisat | Mm|Spunky: um its ctrl-alt-f7 to get back | 01:15 |
| syntaxerror55 | Oh, woops, forgot to tell him how to go back | 01:15 |
| Tuari | i have several drives windows drives that i have mount on mu linux server why do they take up drive space when all they are is a mount | 01:15 |
| * syntaxerror55 sighs at his stupidity | 01:15 | |
| tomtt | Jack_Sparrow: nah, just two .bin files totalling 22MB there | 01:16 |
| travisat | syntaxerror55: I didnt the same thing before you | 01:16 |
| Dr_willis | Tuari, You may want to clarify that. They dont take up drive space when mounted. How are you comming to this conclusion? | 01:16 |
| travisat | syntaxerror55: s/nt// | 01:16 |
| syntaxerror55 | travisat: lol, we're thinking alike a lot | 01:16 |
| Dr_willis | Tuari, when a filesystem is mounted. it appears as a local directory, any tools treat it as such. No different from a normal directory. | 01:17 |
| travisat | syntaxerror55: I hope he figures out his way back | 01:17 |
| Tuari | du -sh /* shows that the root folder for my windows share is 95 gig | 01:17 |
| tomtt | Any other places to look for spurious files? | 01:17 |
| Dr_willis | syntaxerror55, i was just thinking that. | 01:17 |
| syntaxerror55 | travisat: * Mm|Spunky has quit (Remote closed the connection) I think he got scared and powered off | 01:17 |
| nat6138 | Haha. | 01:17 |
| Dr_willis | Tuari, its going down the system looking at all files it can find and just counting them up. | 01:17 |
| travisat | syntaxerror55: ah I filter quits | 01:18 |
| Rezagrats | syntaxerror55: was it due to the fact that the sources.list wasn't updated i couldn't get the java things ? | 01:18 |
| Dr_willis | Tuari, try df -h -x tmpfs -x devpts -x usbfs | 01:18 |
| syntaxerror55 | Rezagrats: no, it was due to the fact you only had the default repositories enabled. | 01:18 |
| Rezagrats | so can i get java through FF now ? | 01:19 |
| syntaxerror55 | !java | Rezagrats | 01:19 |
| ubotu | Rezagrats: To install a Java runtime/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java6-jre from the !Multiverse repository (in !Backports for !Edgy) | 01:19 |
| Tuari | when i run that here is what is shows for my main drive /dev/sda2 97G 97G 0 100% / | 01:19 |
| Rezagrats | so anyone know how to get Wine ? | 01:20 |
| nemilar | Rezagrats: it's in the repos | 01:20 |
| usr13_ | Looks like Tuari has bumped the end of his / partition. | 01:20 |
| RequinB5 | !wine | Rezagrats | 01:20 |
| ubotu | Rezagrats: WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information, and see !AppDB for application compatibility. | 01:20 |
| erichj | sudo apt-get install wine | 01:20 |

| syntaxerror55 | !wine | Rezagrats | 01:20 |
| IndyGunFreak | lol, little slow there. | 01:20 |
| Tuari | yea but them system works great just can install anything new lol | 01:21 |
| * RequinB5 has the fastest ! in the West >.> | 01:21 | |
| Tuari | er cant | 01:21 |
| nemilar | Tuari: if you wouldn't mind explaining your problem, I came in late in the convo...but it sounds like it might be something I've had experience with | 01:21 |
| Dr_willis | if the disk is full.. its full | 01:21 |
| Dr_willis | :) | 01:21 |
| syntaxerror55 | RequinB5: I challenge you to a !duel | 01:22 |
| lanzelloth | hi, is there a way to recover username/password or login as superuser from the main login screen? | 01:22 |
| tomtt | Dr_willis: don't be silly :P | 01:22 |
| syntaxerror55 | !root | lanzelloth | 01:22 |
| ubotu | lanzelloth: 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 | 01:22 |
| RequinB5 | !offtopic | syntaxerror55 | 01:22 |
| ubotu | syntaxerror55: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! | 01:22 |
| Jack_Sparrow | lanzelloth: Recovery mode | 01:22 |
| nemilar | lanzelloth: you know the root password, but you lost a user password? | 01:22 |
| lanzelloth | i forgot the username | 01:22 |
| syntaxerror55 | RequinB5: :/ I'm sorry. don't have to be so serious. | 01:22 |
| RequinB5 | I'm messing lol, but seriously, not a competition | 01:23 |
| lanzelloth | Jack_Sparrow, recovery mode will let me log in as superuser? | 01:23 |
| travisat | lanzelloth: cat /etc/passwd find the user name | 01:23 |
| RequinB5 | Everyone cross their fingers, i'm trying a new video driver | 01:23 |
| tomtt | The 7GB where my / (just system files, no /home) lives is almost full. Any tips/pointers on how to find out if there is anything lying around that is not needed? My I practically empty. Any tools/tips/pointers to find out if there's stuff I can delete? | 01:23 |
| nemilar | lanzelloth: login as root from a TTY (usually control+alt+F2 will do the trick) and you can login from root there; then look for your username in /etc/passwd ('less /etc/passwd'); then control+alt+f7 to get back to graphical | 01:24 |
| Jack_Sparrow | lanzelloth: cli is the only way I know to get back in. | 01:24 |
| Tuari | this is how it all started i tried to install sendmail and it said i was out of space so i started to look around at the system. i have 95 gigs worth of windows shares mount on the system and for some reason linux is reading that as data on the drive and not mounts so im just trying to figure out why | 01:24 |
| tomtt | args s|I|/var/cache/apt| | 01:24 |
| RequinB5 | I'm happy | 01:24 |
| Mm|Spunky | Alright so i have figured out the Terminal thing, now i entered the command i wanted to use and when i enter it, since it's a download does it automatically install and such? | 01:24 |
| RequinB5 | thx to all who helped me get this box working | 01:24 |
| umit | hi, why apache directs a domain to ip address when i type www.foo.com? | 01:24 |
| bkar | tomtt-> start with /tmp and /var/log | 01:24 |
| lanzelloth | Jack_Sparrow, CLI? | 01:25 |
| travisat | Mm|Spunky: eh? | 01:25 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !cli | 01:25 |
| ubotu | The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE). Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal | 01:25 |
| travisat | Mm|Spunky: what command did you enter | 01:25 |
| lanzelloth | nemilar, travisat, i'll try getting a program that reads ext3 fs (on xp right now) | 01:25 |
| NW2190 | hey, what's the best (or one of the best) programming languages to learn for working with linux? | 01:25 |
| Mm|Spunky | Well i needed to download wine, so i downloaded it via sudo and such, so is it automatically downloaded and installed? | 01:25 |
| Jack_Sparrow | NW2190: python | 01:25 |
| nemilar | lanzelloth: that works, too | 01:25 |
| travisat | NW2190: c or poerl | 01:25 |
| nat6138 | Once it's installed, it's done. | 01:25 |
| travisat | perl | 01:25 |
| tomtt | bkar: done that already | 01:26 |
| nemilar | lanzelloth: you could also boot a LiveCD and read your hard drive's /etc/password from there | 01:26 |
| Shadow147 | how do I fix this error make[3]: *** [SDL_blit_N.lo] Error 1 I am installing SDL-1.2.0 | 01:26 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Mm|Spunky: type at cli.. wine notepad | 01:26 |
| NW2190 | I've worked in Vpython is it similiar? | 01:26 |
| bkar | tomtt-> well you tell us the full story so we dont repeat.. | 01:26 |
| th0r | when I first log into my server the time is exactly one hour ahead. But if I immediately check 'hwclock' and 'date' they both return the correct time. However, my system logs are all recording one hour ahead, even after the time checks. Anyone else encounter problems like this or have a suggestion for a solution? | 01:26 |
| travisat | NW2190: python is used in linux but for linux support most programs are written in c/c++ and a lot of the configs are in perl | 01:26 |
| NW2190 | Ok, cool. Thanks for the help. | 01:27 |
| Mm|Spunky | Jack would it be ok if i PM'ed you? | 01:27 |
| travisat | I shouldn't say the configs are in perl, but the scripts to use some configs are in perl | 01:27 |
| Mm|Spunky | it would make things a lot easier | 01:27 |
| nemilar | travisat: lots of programs are starting to be written in python/java | 01:27 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Mm|Spunky: best to keep it in channel | 01:27 |
| nemilar | eg, timevault (python), deluge (python), azureus (java), openoffice.org (java) | 01:27 |
| Mm|Spunky | mmm ok | 01:27 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Mm|Spunky: You can also get great help in #winehq | 01:28 |
| Mm|Spunky | Well so wine, how do i use that then, i went to the add/remove programs and such and i went to installed programs and it gave me an error for it | 01:28 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Mm|Spunky: Did you type what I said in a terminal | 01:28 |
| crdlb | nemilar: openoffice.org isn't actually written in java ;) | 01:28 |
| nemilar | crdlb: it's not?? | 01:28 |
| nownot | has anyone here successfully used ubuntu and ettercap together? | 01:28 |
| crdlb | it's written in C++ | 01:28 |
| Mm|Spunky | " at cli.. wine notepad" that yes? | 01:28 |
| dkbg | I believe some of it is java | 01:28 |
| nemilar | crdlb: why did I always think it was written in java | 01:28 |
| Tuari | nownot i have | 01:28 |
| nemilar | man I feel stupid now | 01:28 |
| crdlb | the java is parts can be disabled | 01:29 |
| tomtt | bkar: sorry :), just have been looking at some obvious things but not sure it's worth mentioning. There's no gui tool to look up large files that haven't been accessed in years for example? | 01:29 |
| nownot | Tuari: think you could help me out? | 01:29 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Mm|Spunky: Did it bring up the windows notepad | 01:29 |
| lanzelloth | nemilar, Jack_Sparrow, travisat, got it, will reboot and try, ty very much | 01:29 |
| dkbg | doesn't it use java for some interface stuff? | 01:29 |
| Jack_Sparrow | np | 01:29 |
| Shadow147 | nemliar python/java even though is used regularly. c++/perl have a higher usage since perl came from C++ and so on and so forth | 01:29 |
| dkbg | the openoffice.org widgets are not standard gtk, they're emulated somehow | 01:29 |
| bkar | tomtt-> find has those options atime ctime, usage of du -h, | 01:30 |
| bajaboy1010 | is there anyway to re-enable the network icon in the taskbar? | 01:30 |
| Mm|Spunky | aaah ok i'm installing now | 01:30 |
| Mm|Spunky | takes a bit of learning for ubuntu haha | 01:30 |
| crdlb | dkbg: that's not the java part. you can turn off java entirely in the openoffice options and you won't immediately notice the difference (various things won't work though) | 01:30 |
| bkar | bajaboy1010-> right click and add to panel | 01:30 |
| bajaboy1010 | gh | 01:30 |
| Mm|Spunky | used to windows so it's nice to learn something new | 01:30 |
| dkbg | crdlb: yeah I was never completely clear about it | 01:30 |
| bajaboy1010 | *ty | 01:30 |
| Kuwanger | How does one use xmess? | 01:30 |
| Shadow147 | how do I fix this error make[3]: *** [SDL_blit_N.lo] Error 1 I am compiling and installing SDL-1.2.0 | 01:31 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Mm|Spunky: You didnt jump in and simply now where everything was in windows either.. It will come to you.. | 01:31 |
| nemilar | Yeah, the oo.org page says its core is in C++, extensions are in Java and other languages | 01:31 |
| nemilar | thanks for correcting me on that | 01:31 |
| Mm|Spunky | Yeah i know, which is why i'm in here asking for help :D instead of screwing things up like most people do when something is new -.- | 01:31 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Mm|Spunky: Welcome to Ubuntu | 01:32 |
| Mm|Spunky | and you're the best help by far i have gotten :) | 01:32 |
| protcront | hello | 01:32 |
| protcront | is there any channel for java | 01:32 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Mm|Spunky: Thanks, but there are lots of talented people here... | 01:32 |
| groven1021 | does anyone have an opinion about suse 10.3, about which is better? | 01:32 |
| Mm|Spunky | Ubuntu is pretty cool, although when i want to play games i'll go back to windows since i'm dual booting but still, it's nice to use something new as well | 01:32 |
| sudobash | Spunky try AA 2.5 for linux | 01:32 |
| sudobash | its around 700 mb | 01:33 |
| sudobash | its free | 01:33 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Mm|Spunky: The other command you will need is wineconf (someone needs to check me on that spelling) | 01:33 |
| sudobash | and it is a great game | 01:33 |
| bazhang | groven1021: offtopic but not too bad | 01:33 |
| sudobash | FPS | 01:33 |
| RequinB5 | Mm|Spunky - I know many people who think that window's only good side is the games, and even then that's because of illegal trade deals | 01:33 |
| celious | AA uses punkbuster.. and punkbuster is terrible. | 01:33 |
| sudobash | the best thing about AA is you dont need wine | 01:33 |
| bazhang | groven1021: of course ubuntu is much better--especially in support ;] | 01:33 |
| nat6138 | Any clue as to why Firefox heats my laptop like an oven? | 01:33 |
| sudobash | yeah pb sucks | 01:33 |
| groven1021 | oh, sorry, didn't know there were topics, I'm a newb obviously | 01:33 |
| Mm|Spunky | Also, another problem i have been having is that when i go away from my pc for a little over 10 minutes, and it goes to the screensaver, when i come back and try to use Ubuntu it won't start anything up, like firefox or anything in the places and systems tabs. Any idea on why this is? | 01:33 |

| sudobash | Spunky if that happens use ctrl alt backspace | 01:34 |
| Kuwanger | Also, why would I be seeing graphic corruption every once in a while, in lists, toolbars, or in websites (vertical bars of a singular color, usually)? | 01:34 |
| sudobash | or you can make a script around this: | 01:34 |
| RequinB5 | Kuwanger - what is your vid card | 01:34 |
| Kuwanger | RequinB5: i810 | 01:34 |
| RequinB5 | Driver? | 01:34 |
| Mm|Spunky | Hmmm, well any idea on what causes the issue? or is it just a bug of sorts? | 01:34 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Mm|Spunky: It might be a screensaver that is not working well with your video.. do you have effects enabled | 01:35 |
| sudobash | sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop / start /restart | 01:35 |
| Mm|Spunky | Oh well i'm pretty sure i do | 01:35 |
| Hellow | Hello, i need to ask somthing, how do you move a file in terminal? | 01:35 |
| Kuwanger | RequinB5: Intel | 01:35 |
| soldats | Mm|Spunky, i think the default screensaver is still broken there is a way to fix it but im not sure on it. my personal solution is to make it so the sceen never turns off | 01:35 |
| sudobash | Spunky sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop | 01:35 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Mm|Spunky: If so, turn them off and see if the problem changes.. if so, select a screensaver tha works and not random... | 01:35 |
| RequinB5 | Kuwanger: are you using compiz-fusion? | 01:35 |
| sudobash | sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start | 01:35 |
| MTecknology | When I boot to the live CD (32bit 7.10) regularly, I get a screen w/ some random colors in a smaller screen area than my monitor. In the past waiting usually causes this to correct itself. Instead it stayed this way. When I booted into safe graphics, I got a green screen and after waiting a while it turned red and stayed that way. I tried two different CD's with the exact same result... any ideas? | 01:35 |
| Kuwanger | RequinB5: No. | 01:35 |
| Mm|Spunky | Well even when i had the screensaver off, when i did come back it still wouoldn't open anything | 01:35 |
| RequinB5 | Hellow: mv | 01:35 |
| Kuwanger | RequinB5: compiz doesn't work | 01:35 |
| mouseboyx | MTecknology, try the alternate cd. | 01:35 |
| sudobash | yes you need to restart X and GDM | 01:36 |
| sudobash | sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart should work but there is also start and stop | 01:36 |
| saebbi_ | i'm having trouble building vpnclient.. in fact, i've had trouble building anything so far, so i believe its a general mistake.. this is the output of make : http://www.pastebin.org/17178 | 01:36 |

| RequinB5 | Kuwanger - do they appear throughout the screen or in a box | 01:36 |
| RequinB5 | teh lins | 01:36 |
| Kuwanger | RequinB5: Within a box. | 01:36 |
| kestir | is it possible to get a remote desktop of my linux machine from a windows machine? | 01:36 |
| MTecknology | mouseboyx, any suggestions that don't involve dloading something over a near dial-up connection? | 01:36 |
| saebbi_ | echo $KERNEL_SOURCES prints an empty line.. the variable is used in the Makefile, could this be the cause? | 01:37 |
| RequinB5 | Kuwanger - most probably you have a game or other gfx intensified program in teh background | 01:37 |
| mouseboyx | MTecknology, did you try safe graphics mode? | 01:37 |
| sudobash | windows remote desktop uses licenses use VNC | 01:37 |
| Kuwanger | RequinB5: Um, no, I don't. | 01:37 |
| MTecknology | mouseboyx, ya, that was the green/red | 01:37 |
| Cpudan80 | Hey | 01:37 |
| RequinB5 | Kuwanger: I don't know then. your setup works fine on my system unless i'm doing that | 01:37 |
| lanzelloth | yay i'm in | 01:38 |
| Cpudan80 | Is there a way to resync your monitors without restarting X? | 01:38 |
| Cpudan80 | My monitors are out of Sync | 01:38 |
| sudobash | hmm | 01:38 |
| nemilar | lanzelloth: glad that worked for you | 01:38 |
| ryanpg | ok, so if I have a laptop with an Intel Core 2 Duo T7300 2.0GHz proc, which cd should I download for installation? I'm only finding amd64 and i386 | 01:38 |
| lanzelloth | nemilar: ty | 01:38 |
| RequinB5 | Cpudan90 - why without restarting X? | 01:38 |
| nemilar | always good when a problem gets fixed ;) | 01:38 |
| pan__ | amd64 | 01:38 |
| MTecknology | mouseboyx, I have 64bit on here and there's a few things that just don't work that I'm lost w/o... | 01:38 |
| Kuwanger | RequinB5: Do you have direct rendering enabled? | 01:38 |
| Cpudan80 | ryanpg: AMD64 = Intel too | 01:38 |

| mouseboyx | Does anyone know if the live cd comes with a command line installer. | 01:38 |
| th0r | kestir your best bet is to run NX from Nomachine.com on the linux computer; there is a client for windows | 01:38 |
| RequinB5 | Kuwanger - i wouldn't know, havent looked at X in a wihle on this box | 01:38 |
| ries | is it possible to get a java 1.5 version in edgy? or do I need to upgrade to a newer version of ubuntu? | 01:38 |
| sudobash | mouseboyx yes | 01:38 |
| Mm|Spunky | Haha, Ubuntu is actually really amazing when you know what things to use :D | 01:39 |
| sudobash | it is can alternate install | 01:39 |
| Cpudan80 | RequinB5: then I lose all my open windows and stuff | 01:39 |

| groovingsoul | , i tried everythind (and no i have no fax) anyone can help me to sort it out? | 01:39 |
| ryanpg | Cpudan80, wha huh? really? conter-intuitive to say the least :) | 01:39 |
| mouseboyx | MTecknology, you can try that what is it sudobash? | 01:39 |
| Mm|Spunky | Which is why i come to you guys if i have any questions, and the Linux support is great too <333 | 01:39 |
| Shadow147 | nemilar | 01:39 |
| Shadow147 | nemilar yea | 01:39 |
| Cpudan80 | ryanpg: Blame AMD whose head is up their ass | 01:39 |
| nemilar | Shadow147: I was asking why | 01:39 |
| lanzelloth | so i'm on 7.04, want to upgrade to 7.10, i looked at the update manager, there's 190 updates waiting to be dled, is there a way to upgrade to 7.10 without updating all those? | 01:39 |
| kestir | th0r: ok, I'll check that out | 01:39 |
| ryanpg | Cpudan80, can you expand on that a bit? I thought AMD was a friend of FOSS | 01:39 |
| Shadow147 | nemilar yea I am compiling from surce | 01:39 |
| mouseboyx | When you get the strange graphics problem MTecknology press CTRL+ALT+F2 | 01:39 |
| th0r | kestir much faster than vnc especially over longer distances | 01:39 |
| RequinB5 | Cpudan80 - only thing i can say is try to save them blindly | 01:40 |

| nemilar | Shadow147: "why" | 01:40 |
| Cpudan80 | ryanpg: AMDs original 64 bit implementation was different from intels | 01:40 |
| Cpudan80 | ryanpg: so the name kinda stuck | 01:40 |
| Shadow147 | nemilar I need it for a program | 01:40 |
| MTecknology | mouseboyx, i did and got nothing | 01:40 |
| singlesun | any1 know how to set an application as default..... (ex. setup Azureus as the default .torrent client)? | 01:40 |
| Cpudan80 | Not sure whose standard prevailed | 01:40 |
| ryanpg | oh | 01:40 |
| sudobash | startx within a terminal like ctrl alt f1 will drop you right to the desktop with out the GDM login screen | 01:40 |
| Hellow | Ok, i need help: I am trying to move a file called paradise-server to /usr/local from /, how do i do that? | 01:40 |
| Shadow147 | that requires SDL 1.2.0 | 01:40 |
| Shadow147 | nemilar that requires SDL 1.2.0 | 01:40 |
| kestir | th0r: is there a package in the repositories? | 01:41 |
| lanzelloth | Hellow: run nautilus? | 01:41 |
| mouseboyx | Hold ctl alt then press f2? | 01:41 |
| Cpudan80 | brb - restart x | 01:41 |
| sudobash | hey mouseboyx | 01:41 |
| bajaboy1010 | im trying to install network manager, but it says i need the CD. I can't really use the CD as my laptop is without a cd drive. any way to circumvent the need of a cd? | 01:41 |
| mouseboyx | Yes? | 01:41 |
| sudobash | before you do that remember ctrl alt f7 is X | 01:41 |
| sudobash | sometimes it is f9 but that is for safe graphics mode | 01:41 |
| mouseboyx | Yes bajaboy1010 , you need to open up system>admin>softwaresources and uncheck the cd | 01:41 |
| bajaboy1010 | ah | 01:41 |
| bajaboy1010 | kkty | 01:41 |
| RequinB5 | Hellow: 'sudo mv /usr/paradise-server /' | 01:42 |
| tritium | mouseboyx: if you want virtual console 2. Note that there are a total of 6, and there is nothing wrong with the first. Ctrl-Alt-F1 would take you there. | 01:42 |
| nemilar | Shadow147: the version in repos is 1.2 | 01:42 |

| NET||abuse | Hey guys.. i've a quick problem with nm-applet,, i changed over from wep to wpa, now i have difficulty connecting automatically , it chooses the wrong options for the encryption for the wifi network | 01:42 |
| Hellow | k | 01:42 |
| sudobash | just remember ctrl alt f7 returns you | 01:42 |
| sudobash | or you might get lost | 01:42 |
| mouseboyx | Doesn't the first one have the startup stuff and it would confuse someone? | 01:42 |
| NET||abuse | is there a way to re-initallise the settings, or purge out old settings that might be confusing the setup? | 01:42 |
| nemilar | Shadow147: apt-get install libsdl1.2debian | 01:42 |
| sudobash | well all those terminals report kernel info | 01:42 |
| MTecknology | mouseboyx, no other ideas? | 01:42 |
| tritium | mouseboyx: no | 01:42 |
| xazo | im trying to install LIBC for my 2.6.22-14-386 kernel. where can I download the LIBC files from? Thanks.... | 01:43 |
| sudobash | like link information | 01:43 |
| tritium | Poor v.c. #1 often gets overlooked. | 01:43 |
| sudobash | and errors | 01:43 |
| mouseboyx | Not really, MTecknology | 01:43 |
| Shadow147 | nemilar well I have that already | 01:43 |
| sudobash | you should be fine with f1 though | 01:43 |
| MTecknology | aight... alternate is 1% | 01:43 |
| nemilar | Shadow147: then you probably need some other SDL libraries, but compiling from source isn't the answer | 01:44 |
| groven1021 | does anyone know if ubuntu 7.04 will run on an hp 6715b? | 01:44 |
| sudobash | alternate is faster installation | 01:44 |
| th0r | kestir no pkg....but I think nomachine has deb files | 01:44 |
| sudobash | ubuntu will run on a lot of things | 01:44 |
| nemilar | Shadow147: SDL has a lot of diffeerent libs for sound, graphics, perl/python integration, etc | 01:44 |
| nat6138 | groven1021: You could try out the live CD and see if that works out. | 01:44 |
| sudobash | how fast is it groven1021? | 01:44 |
| bazhang | groven1021: what cpu what ram | 01:44 |
| sudobash | and HD space | 01:44 |
| Brainwave | where is the room bot? | 01:45 |
| groven1021 | it's an amd 64 with 1 gig of ram (laptop) | 01:45 |
| sudobash | you might be better off with DSL if it is a real slow machine | 01:45 |
| sudobash | dude it will run fine | 01:45 |
| bazhang | groven1021: may as well go for gutsy then | 01:45 |
| Shadow147 | nemilar well I never had a problem with it | 01:45 |
| sudobash | that will run most OS'es fine | 01:45 |
| mouseboyx | DSL is sweet. | 01:45 |
| groven1021 | will the live cd work or will I need the alternate installaiton cd | 01:45 |
| nat6138 | groven1021: Should work fine, but some things might not work with it. Live CD would be nice to see if it works good. | 01:45 |
| ryanpg | how's compiz run on intel X3100 GPUs? | 01:46 |
| sudobash | live cd is fine | 01:46 |
| bazhang | groven best to try the live cd first | 01:46 |
| groven1021 | ok | 01:46 |
| nemilar | Shadow147: compiling from source is just going to cause you problems, and be more difficult than necessary | 01:46 |

| Hellow | How do i rename a dir in terminal? | 01:46 |
| RequinB5 | Does DSL have a liveCD | 01:46 |
| sudobash | ummm | 01:46 |
| mouseboyx | ryanpg, Pretty well, comprible to nvidia 6200 | 01:46 |
| mouseboyx | DSL is a live cd. | 01:46 |
| nemilar | Shadow147: what library in particular does this game need? | 01:46 |
| ePax | groven1021: Use safe grafic mode as well when you use live cd in case you have some ATI card | 01:46 |
| sudobash | i dont think so... but if you want a good live cd try Back|Track | 01:46 |
| sudobash | it has a lot of wireless support | 01:47 |
| nemilar | Shadow147: are you installing the game from a package? what game? etc | 01:47 |
| johnathon | RequinB5 DSL can be installed on a thumbdrive and botted from it | 01:47 |
| ryanpg | mouseboyx, wow - that's encouraging | 01:47 |

| Shadow147 | nemilar for your info I am compiling zsnes because the one in the repos is much older | 01:48 |
| nemilar | Hellow: mv [directory name] [new directory name] | 01:48 |
| RyanPrior | Hellow: Yup. If you have a directory foo and you want it to be named bar, type mv foo bar | 01:48 |
| nemilar | Shadow147: if you're compiling it, you need the -dev packages for SDL | 01:48 |
| mouseboyx | After all the years noone has made an rn command... | 01:48 |
| nemilar | mouseboyx: renaming is the same thing as moving ;) | 01:49 |

| NW2190 | Hey, when programming in Python should I use an IDE or is it alright just to use a text editor? | 01:50 |
| lanzelloth | sudobash: it finished in 1s | 01:50 |
| mouseboyx | ies for linux | 01:51 |
| nemilar | NW2190: doesn't make a difference, but you might like using an IDE better | 01:51 |
| mouseboyx | try this pingu http://www.tatanka.com.br/ies4linux/page/Main_Page | 01:51 |
| sudobash | then run sudo apt-get upgrade and then sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 01:51 |
| nemilar | NW2190: python has a pretty good IDE called Idle, but Eclipse is more powerful | 01:51 |
| NW2190 | nemilar: is there anything substantially better about using an IDE? | 01:51 |
| sudobash | do you have accelerated graphics drivers lanzelloth | 01:51 |
| sudobash | ? | 01:51 |
| RyanPrior | NW2190: IDEs sometimes automate things for you and streamline your process. | 01:51 |

| paolob | Hi guys! What about /etc/iftab in gutsy? it seems that it doesn't work anymore, or, best, that it cannot get obedience from the kernel. Anyone knows wheter it has changed its behaviour? thank you! | 01:55 |

| Kuwanger | RyanPrior: May I ask what's exactly where such a question would be on-topic? | 01:56 |
| JFactor | can the s-video work with ubuntu? | 01:56 |
| Kuwanger | err, where | 01:56 |
| Enron | nemilar can I pm you lol it's hard to scroll constantly | 01:56 |
| mouseboyx | JFactor, yes. | 01:56 |
| tritium | Kuwanger: check out the dgen or xmess-sdl and xmess-x ubuntu packages | 01:56 |
| tritium | Kuwanger: no worries, it's on-topic. | 01:56 |
| pingu | mouseboyx: what do you mean by form? | 01:56 |
| Shadow147 | nemilar heres what I get http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/53928/ | 01:56 |
| nemilar | Geoffrey2: the 'locate' or 'find' commands | 01:56 |
| JFactor | mouseboyx: how? | 01:56 |
| mouseboyx | like an input box? can you send me a screen shot pingu | 01:56 |

| bazhang | http://www.emulator-zone.com/doc.php/sms/ Kuwanger here | 01:57 |
| nemilar | Shadow147: you don't have the dev package for sdl installed | 01:57 |
| Kuwanger | tribaldata: I can't seem to get xmess-sdl to work, unfortunately. | 01:57 |
| tritium | RyanPrior: they're not supported, but he can ask if there are ubuntu packages | 01:57 |
| bazhang | #ubuntu-es Magozamo | 01:57 |
| mouseboyx | JFactor, What doesn't work, It worked for me you have to use nvidia settings, it only worked with nvidia for me, the svideo has to be pluged in before you start up your computer. | 01:57 |
| Shadow147 | nemilar according to ubuntu it is | 01:57 |
| ries | How can I prevent a kernel from being updated? | 01:57 |
| RyanPrior | ries: You probably don't want to do that. | 01:57 |
| nemilar | Shadow147: try reinstalling then | 01:57 |
| pingu | mouseboyx: its just a place to put the answer to a physics question for online homework like in college and where should i sent the screen shot | 01:57 |
| Shadow147 | ok | 01:57 |
| venger | tritium: and for packages not installed? | 01:57 |
| Shadow147 | nemilar ok | 01:57 |
| StoneNote | Geoffrey2, try sudo apt-get install catfish | 01:58 |
| Enron | nemilar in apache2, /etc/apache2/sites-available/default ? | 01:58 |
| JFactor | mouseboyx: it has been plugged in since I installed ubuntu | 01:58 |
| mouseboyx | photobucket? | 01:58 |
| nemilar | Shadow147: actually, it's because it's looking in /usr/local instead of /usr, probably | 01:58 |
| tritium | venger: what is your question? | 01:58 |
| ries | RyanPrior: I build my own kernel that hase XEN support (updating a domU now) and I do need a modified kernel | 01:58 |
| mouseboyx | JFactor, do you use nvidia? | 01:58 |
| nemilar | Shadow147: run ./configure --help and set the prefix for SDL to be /usr instead of /usr/local | 01:58 |
| ries | I am trying to upgrade from 6.x to 7.x now | 01:58 |
| pingu | mouseboyx: not sure if it will help thought because you can't see whats missing | 01:58 |
| RyanPrior | ries: Ah, I see. You can keep apt from installing new kernels by "locking" the packages. This can be done with dkpg or with Synaptic. | 01:58 |
| nemilar | Enron: yeah | 01:58 |
| venger | tritium: looking for what package provides a file and according to man dpkg, the -S searches installed packages | 01:58 |
| JFactor | mouseboyx: yes I have an nvidia 6150 and I just activated the restricted driver | 01:58 |
| mouseboyx | I guess, is the answer, like a text box. | 01:58 |
| f7za90541 | . | 01:58 |
| ries | RyanPrior: Ahh.. let me see | 01:59 |
| nemilar | Enron: just restart apache after you've editied the file, so the changes take affect (or you can reload instead of restart) | 01:59 |
| Kuwanger | bazhang: Um, all those are Windows programs. | 01:59 |
| mouseboyx | JFactor, press alt f2 and type sudo nvidia-settings | 01:59 |
| tritium | venger: if you don't have the package installed, you'll need to use apt-file | 01:59 |
| Enron | nemilar what exactly do i edit in there lol | 01:59 |
| tritium | venger: apt-file needs you to update its package listings before it | 01:59 |
| venger | tritium: i tried apt-file list /full/file/name was that not correct? | 01:59 |
| pingu | mouseboyx: ok? | 02:00 |
| tritium | venger: apt-file search | 02:00 |
| ries | Hmm is Synaptic the same as apt? | 02:00 |
| bazhang | Kuwanger: that is what is available--you can google for more results if you wish | 02:00 |

| Geoffrey2 | thanks....is there any particular package that would install dvd.h, or dvdio.h, or is it possible they wouldn't exist, even if you have a dvd drive installed? | 02:04 |
| johnathon | ik this is off topic but is a degree in computer science what gets u to be a computer technician? | 02:04 |
| Dr_willis | kestir, from the remote machine. can you Ping the ssh server machine? Check the ssh logs also on the server. see if its getting connections. | 02:04 |
| nemilar | Dr_willis: oh, nvmd that | 02:04 |
| Shadow147 | nemilar it's looking in /usr | 02:05 |

| kestir | Dr_willis: where are the ssh logs kept? | 02:05 |
| Kuwanger | bazhang: Thank you. | 02:05 |
| nemilar | Shadow147: try 'which sdl-config' | 02:05 |
| nemilar | Shadow147: if it doesn't find it, then you don't have the -dev installed | 02:06 |
| Dr_willis | kestir, /var/log I think. but not sure where exactly. | 02:06 |
| Skwerl | As far as compiling goes.. Is there a way to add a path to what gets searched through for libraries? | 02:06 |
| nemilar | Skwerl: /etc/ld.so.conf | 02:06 |
| Shadow147 | nemilar /usr/local/bin/sdl-config | 02:06 |
| mouseboyx | Are you here pingu? | 02:06 |
| kestir | Dr_willis: yes I can ping it | 02:06 |
| nemilar | Shadow147: oh, then it is in local...did you compile that by source, too? | 02:07 |
| nemilar | kestir: can you nmap it to see if port 22 is open? | 02:07 |
| yuriman | is there any way to enable a new fstab without rebooting? | 02:07 |
| Dr_willis | kestir, cat /var/log/auth.log is the ssh log files it seems | 02:07 |
| bod_ | can you guys do me a favout please,. can you check this site and tell me what i have to do to get this software :http://forumubuntusoftware.info/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=427 | 02:07 |
| nemilar | yuriman: entries added to fstab are usable right away | 02:07 |
| ubuntuo | how do you write music to a cd using Ubuntu? | 02:08 |
| soldats | yuriman, or try sudo mount -a | 02:08 |
| Dr_willis | kestir, do a tail -f /var/log/auth.log in a terminal, then try to ssh in - see if any info pops up. | 02:08 |
| Shadow147 | nemilar I believe I got it from the repos | 02:08 |
| Dr_willis | kestir, it may be somthing btweeen the 2 machines blocking ssh. | 02:08 |
| nemilar | Shadow147: then it would be in /usr/bin instead of /usr/local/bin | 02:08 |
| ddalton | ok anyone know of any ubuntu 7.04 installation instructions? | 02:08 |

| johnathon | ubuntuo serpintine audio cd creator | 02:08 |
| RequinB5 | xomp: quick and dirty would to be disable the gutsy-backports | 02:08 |
| Shadow147 | nemilar then I got them from sorce | 02:08 |
| ubuntuo | yes johnathon i tried that, but when i burn music it says "Please insert a blank cd" | 02:09 |
| ubuntuo | do you know why? | 02:09 |
| nemilar | Shadow147: source and packages don't work well together | 02:09 |
| xomp | RequinB5, ok, thanks! | 02:09 |
| xazo | StoneNote, i keep getting error when installing nvidia-linux-x86-169.09-pkg1.run. error: no libc headers installed. I did run the apt-get install linux... as you suggested. | 02:09 |
| bazhang | bod_: follow the instructions on the page--it seems fairly self evident | 02:09 |
| nemilar | Shadow147: run sdl-config --version | 02:09 |
| Shadow147 | nemilar but if I yank the libsdl1.2-dev out alot of my packages well stop working | 02:10 |
| nemilar | that's not true | 02:10 |
| kestir | Dr_willis: well...I think the problem might be that the laptop I'm using has the same IP as my desktop | 02:10 |
| ubuntuo | johnathon: my sperintine audo cd creator doesnt copy right... | 02:10 |
| nemilar | you only need the -dev to compile | 02:10 |
| bod_ | bazhang, im confused though,. i have copied and pasted the 3 lines of code from the first box, and it downloaded something,,.,. is that all i have to do or do i have to do the same for the really long script? | 02:10 |
| kestir | Dr_willis: they're sharing an internet connection...having a friend see if he can ssh in | 02:10 |

| max-p | Hi, I have a font problem with firefox (error in the terminal) | 02:10 |
| Dr_willis | kestir, thats not good. :) sounds like confuseing lan configuragion issue then. | 02:10 |
| nemilar | Shadow147: you probably installed part of SDL from source, and another part from repos, and it's confusing the heck out of the configure script | 02:11 |
| johnathon | ubuntuo then i dont know | 02:11 |
| xomp | does anyone know of any linux email client that will work with Exchange Server 5.5. Evolution works with Exchange 2000 & 2003, but I need a client that will work with 5.5. Thanks | 02:11 |
| ubuntuo | ah crap okay | 02:11 |
| nemilar | Shadow147: spend some time finding everything, then use ./configure --help to figure out how to tell it where everything is | 02:11 |
| johnathon | ubuntuo maybe with amarok | 02:11 |
| kestir | Dr_willis: yeah...from the frying pan to the fire I go | 02:11 |
| bazhang | bod_: as the instructions say: select all of the code in the lower box | 02:11 |
| protoloco | Im running mytop.. and there are alot of sleep mysql process.. with alot of Time. (100 secs) are they taking CPU usage % ? | 02:11 |
| ubuntuo | johnathon maybe i need a certain lib/package or coedecs to copy music? | 02:11 |
| Dr_willis | kestir, if they are sharing a connection using the NAT stuff of linux. then the laptop should have a different ip. then the server. it will be on a different subnet. | 02:11 |
| ubuntuo | its .mp3 format | 02:11 |

| scorpioz | anyone with some experience in setting up drivers (for wifi) can help me...private msg..? | 03:33 |
| DeusDeus | bazhang: are there other network managers that I could try | 03:33 |
| scorpioz | i hv been to ubuntu forums but i can't find answer to what i am trying to do | 03:33 |

| bazhang | hehe | 03:33 |
| pvl1 | LjL, yea | 03:33 |
| hanophix33 | i cannot connect to certain wireless networks, could it be my driver? | 03:33 |
| scorpioz | lol | 03:33 |
| DeusDeus | bazhang: I'll see what I can find in the forums. Thanks for your help | 03:34 |
| kaptainkory | Would someone be willing to help me troubleshoot getting my graphics card working properly (Nvidia GeForce FX 5200)? | 03:34 |
| VvWolverinevV | what does it mean if wine is grayed out in my add/remove programs? | 03:34 |
| bazhang | DeusDeus: if it is too daunting come back--best to read up a bit on how to do it via the command line--I have found network-manager and knetwork-manager to be a pain in the posterior | 03:35 |
| DeusDeus | bazhang: actually in looking at the forums it suggests to have MAC filtering disabled which doesn't make much sense | 03:35 |
| scorpioz | kaptainkory ...u tried using the nvidia restricted drivers at all ? | 03:35 |
| groven1021 | while installing guts I get the the running local boot scripts and it stops, anyone know why? | 03:35 |
| Mm|Spunky | "I have found network-manager and knetwork-manager to be a pain in the posterior" lol that made me chuckle | 03:35 |
| scorpioz | or do u run into probmes ? | 03:35 |
| hanophix33 | whats better, hostap or orinico? | 03:35 |
| bazhang | DeusDeus: right; and not something you can control when it is the schools router | 03:36 |
| hanophix33 | DeusDeus: what problem are you hsving? | 03:36 |
| scorpioz | kaptainkory | 03:36 |
| kaptainkory | scorpioz -- Yes, I've tried everything I could find online...envy, restricted drivers, downloading/compiling directly from Nvidia. Now, I'm afraid I just have a mess...and I'm lost. | 03:36 |
| ardchoille | I recently moved to Ubuntu from Kubuntu, the only thing I miss is kalarm. Is there an app that lets you quickly set an alarm without having to set it in Evolution? | 03:36 |
| scorpioz | hmm` | 03:36 |
| scorpioz | ok | 03:36 |
| mike9682000 | usr_13, I got "Reconfiguring network interfaces; ignoring unknown interface eth0=eth0." | 03:36 |

| hanophix33 | Ahh | 03:37 |
| scorpioz | i dont knw much...i just did restricted and it worked fine without any wrapping etc | 03:37 |
| jay-oh-en | ardchoille, hey i switched to ubuntu too | 03:37 |
| wittyphotons | how do i record the audio output from my sound card in gutsy gibbon? i have an alc268 sound car | 03:37 |
| ardchoille | jay-oh-en: :D | 03:37 |
| bazhang | still on kubuntu here ;] | 03:37 |
| nat6138 | ardchoille: couldn't you just use kalarm in gnome? | 03:37 |
| jay-oh-en | ardchoille, why did you switch? | 03:37 |
| hanophix33 | I have a school wireless network that i cant seem to connect to, i have a WEP at my house that I can connect to no problem, but there, i cant seem to get it to work properly | 03:37 |
| DeusDeus | hanophix33: I"m having issues connecting to my wpa2 network which I know works with this card | 03:37 |
| ardchoille | nat6138: I could, but was thinking gnome has something similar | 03:37 |
| ardchoille | jay-oh-en: May I pm you? | 03:38 |
| kaptainkory | scorpioz...thanks anyhow. I just need to get back to square-one, I think...and maybe someone to talk me through a step-by-step check to figure out the hang-up. | 03:38 |
| DeusDeus | I've had no issues connecting at school with ubuntu either...so I think it's just the wpa2 | 03:38 |
| jay-oh-en | ardchoille, yes | 03:38 |
| scorpioz | hmm | 03:38 |
| hanophix33 | DeusDeus: hmm, i have a 802.11b which i dont think works with WPA so i got an external card which works great | 03:38 |
| scorpioz | so right now what is it doing..? is it trying to use the nvidia at all or just the generic vga | 03:38 |
| pvl1 | well go that outa the way | 03:38 |
| pvl1 | how do u change the incoming font in pidgin? | 03:38 |
| hanophix33 | DeusDeus: What kind of network at school? | 03:39 |
| codyduncan | Having read multiple pages in the wiki, and finding either no answers, or answers that lead to dead ends (as in no solution, or a solution that I apparently do not have the ability to implement), I am still facing the same problem, namely, I am unable to connect to wifi. I recognize, after browsing the forums for the last two days, that this is a very common problem, but alas, none of the suggested solutions seemed to be right for my situation. | 03:39 |
| codyduncan | So, I am using Gutsy, on an AMD64, and using a Broadcom 4318 wireless card. Upon first booting Ubuntu (the only OS on my laptop, as I ditched windows all together in search of greener pastures [greener even than those seen in the default XP desktop background]) I found that network manager was not recognizing any wireless networks. | 03:39 |
| codyduncan | I tried using restricted drivers to install the firmware for my card, and while that made it such that wireless networks were found (so I assume my card was working to some degree) I was not able to connect to my own network. Each time I tried to connect, the key wouldn't go through. I'm now guessing that my best bet is to go the route of ndiswrapper, but I'm confused about how to go about using this. | 03:39 |
| DeusDeus | Oh geez...I'm not even sure come to think of it. They have mac address filtering..maybe it's wep with 802.11b? I'm not sure | 03:40 |
| kaptainkory | Scorpioz...right now, it's in safe graphics mode. I've been able to get as far as getting it to "work"--even using Compiz. But then I reboot and it defaults back to safe graphics mode. | 03:40 |
| scorpioz | oh | 03:40 |
| codyduncan | any takers? | 03:40 |
| scorpioz | i knw how u can force it to keep using the nvidia | 03:40 |
| DeusDeus | I see my wireless on the list and it it asks for my password it just does not accept it | 03:40 |
| kaptainkory | Scorpioz...don't ask me how I got it to "work"! HA! ...I've tried so many different things...GAH! | 03:40 |
| scorpioz | u hv to run the xorg reconfigure | 03:40 |
| hanophix33 | DeusDeus: mine is open with a browser login, and I am having a ton of troubles connecting to it, NM shows great signal but I cannot connect | 03:40 |
| kaptainkory | Scorpioz ...done that, numerous times. | 03:41 |
| codyduncan | I suppose I should just read DeusDeus's problem right now for a while, as it seems similar | 03:41 |
| scorpioz | hmm``ok | 03:41 |
| codyduncan | and coincidentally | 03:41 |
| scorpioz | yeah | 03:41 |
| DeusDeus | I just didn't know if there was a log of error messages or something that could help me pinpoint the exact issue so I could google it better | 03:41 |
| codyduncan | my laptop is called DeusExMachina | 03:41 |
| scorpioz | i m stuck on wireless drivers....ubuntu finds them by default show network everything EVEN connets | 03:41 |
| scorpioz | but website like google works | 03:41 |
| codyduncan | no takers then? | 03:42 |
| codyduncan | well | 03:42 |
| scorpioz | but as soon as soon little bigger website...it starts downloading (gets the title) but then stops | 03:42 |
| codyduncan | I'll return | 03:42 |

| VvWolverinevV | jrib: what's the line :P | 03:47 |
| nickrud | saebbi_: add those to ~/.bashrc , they will be read each time you open a terminal | 03:47 |
| kaptainkory | scoprioz...of the bugs I've read that seem similar, most people say it doesn't seem to affect anything. | 03:47 |
| wittyphotons | when i try it with my sound card's output as the input, all i get is a blank audio file from recording. | 03:47 |
| hanophix33 | can anyone help me with hostap or orinco | 03:47 |
| scorpioz | ...yeah exactly .. | 03:47 |
| jrib | saebbi_: set them in ~/.bashrc I suppose, but something else should be setting $TERM shouldn't it? Why do you want to do this? | 03:48 |

| saebbi_ | jrib i'm having trouble running emacs.. i was told to try setting TERM to vt100 | 03:49 |
| VvWolverinevV | jrib: maybe because of dependencies? but i thought add/remove took care of that too | 03:49 |

| baalsgate | hi | 03:49 |

| wittyphotons | Lurner: when i try to record, i have to close any other programs using sound first, otherwise i get an error message or it simply doesn't even begin recording. but if i close everything but audacity first (i think it has to do with some codec being in use otherwise), i can record in audacity. like, i see the recoding taking place. but it is just silence being recorded. | 03:50 |

| wittyphotons | Lurner: btw thanks for your advice; i guess getting a new sound card is just the easiest solution | 04:01 |
| magic_ninja | Joespeh: just partition the windows hdd and half windows half linux and user the other drive as your home drive and mount your "Documents and Settings" folder on the desktop with a symlink | 04:01 |
| bod_ | regulate, true | 04:01 |
| amigappc | magic_ninja: all is on 100 | 04:01 |
| swuboo | nickrud: Yup, that was it. Restarted Firefox and it no longer lists them. Thanks. | 04:02 |
| azrael | azrael@azrael-desktop:~$ sudo mv /home/azrael/Desktop/gens.png /user/share/pixmaps | 04:02 |
| azrael | mv: cannot move `/home/azrael/Desktop/gens.png' to `/user/share/pixmaps': No such file or directory | 04:02 |
| azrael | still nothing | 04:02 |
| jrib | azrael: it's "usr", not "user". There are probably better ways to accomplish what you are trying to do by the way | 04:02 |
| bod_ | azrael, /user/share/pixmaps should be /usr/share/pixmaps | 04:02 |
| simps | Could someone help me setup samba to be able to see my ubuntu from my windows? | 04:02 |
| magic_ninja | amigappc: what kind of card, do you have onboard audio and a soundcard installed or just one or the other | 04:02 |
| amigappc | magic_ninja: its a toshiba laptop satego p100 ... | 04:03 |
| Joespeh | magic_ninja - My G: drive (200 gig) is much bigger than my C: drive (30 gig), I think it would make sense to put windows on C and linux on G:, do I have to partition my G: drive to keep my documents? | 04:03 |
| amigappc | magic_ninja: onboard | 04:03 |
| azrael | whats a better way?\ | 04:03 |
| bod_ | azrael, tab completion | 04:04 |
| nat6138 | simps: You need to go into the Shared Folders thing in Preferences, or Admistration, should come up with a dialog box saying something that you need to install. | 04:04 |
| magic_ninja | Joespeh: yes you will | 04:04 |
| Joespeh | thank you | 04:04 |
| regulate | Joespeh: partitioning it would mean losing data | 04:04 |
| bod_ | azrael, just press tab about half way through typing a directory word | 04:04 |
| magic_ninja | amigappc: play around with that and try alsamixer | 04:04 |
| azrael | hmm | 04:04 |
| simps | nat6138: i did that | 04:04 |
| amigappc | magic_ninja: i have it installed, and no sound at all | 04:04 |
| azrael | ok, thanks | 04:04 |
| magic_ninja | amigappc: my guess if there is a setting your missing, it is 95% of the time | 04:04 |
| nat6138 | simps: Did you add any folders? | 04:04 |
| simps | i added a folder as well, nat6138 | 04:04 |
| nat6138 | simps: And still nothing on Windows | 04:04 |

| NW2190 | Hey, in Python is there a way to create a list one entry at a time, without knowing the total # of entries beforehand? | 04:05 |
| Joespeh | okay, I guess my real problem is I don't understand how partitioning works -- what does it do? | 04:05 |
| simps | nope | 04:05 |
| simps | nothing nat6138 | 04:05 |
| nat6138 | simps: Try refreshing the windows part? | 04:05 |

| bod_ | no probs | 04:06 |
| magic_ninja | amigappc: just use the arrow keys up and down in a terminal with alsamixer | 04:06 |
| nat6138 | simps: Go to Network, in Vista, or Network Places in XP. | 04:06 |
| magic_ninja | simps: windows doesn't support linux-type file systems | 04:06 |

| magic_ninja | amigappc: if you don't get your problem resolved tomarrow evening i'll help you out just PM me | 04:08 |
| nemilar | jeffMASTERflex: it'd be more complex, like get the headers, if this then that...probably require a script | 04:08 |
| tatami | does anyone else use wifi radar to connect their wireless networks/ | 04:08 |
| jeffMASTERflex | nemilar: maybe not, you might need some scanner implemented in another languag that is not bash | 04:08 |
| nemilar | I think bash could handle it | 04:09 |
| amigappc | magic_ninja: if i dont forget it, i will do it ^.^ i promise | 04:09 |
| jeffMASTERflex | nemilar: python, ruby, perl they can all do the job for sure | 04:09 |
| nemilar | jeffMASTERflex: bash could handle it, but it'd take more than pipes ;) | 04:09 |
| nemilar | Python would be my choice though | 04:09 |

| codyduncan | I've returned | 04:21 |
| nemilar | Cin: does not crash in centos | 04:21 |
| codyduncan | to restate my problem: | 04:22 |
| codyduncan | Having read multiple pages in the wiki, and finding either no answers, or answers that lead to dead ends (as in no solution, or a solution that I apparently do not have the ability to implement), I am still facing the same problem, namely, I am unable to connect to wifi. I recognize, after browsing the forums for the last two days, that this is a very common problem, but alas, none of the suggested solutions seemed to be right for my situation. | 04:22 |
| codyduncan | So, I am using Gutsy, on an AMD64, and using a Broadcom 4318 wireless card. Upon first booting Ubuntu (the only OS on my laptop, as I ditched windows all together in search of greener pastures [greener even than those seen in the default XP desktop background]) I found that network manager was not recognizing any wireless networks. | 04:22 |
| codyduncan | I tried using restricted drivers to install the firmware for my card, and while that made it such that wireless networks were found (so I assume my card was working to some degree) I was not able to connect to my own network. Each time I tried to connect, the key wouldn't go through. I'm now guessing that my best bet is to go the route of ndiswrapper, but I'm confused about how to go about using this. | 04:22 |
| nemilar | Cin: have you tried it in Konsole? | 04:22 |
| Cin | nemilar: no, i tried it in gnome-terminal | 04:22 |
| bardyr | codyduncan, use ndiswrapper with the windows xp drivers, broadcome support in linux sucks really but works great with ndiswrapper | 04:22 |
| nemilar | I'm gonna try it in konsole now | 04:23 |
| bazhang | codyduncan: have you read up on using ndiswrapper? | 04:23 |
| codyduncan | I've read | 04:23 |
| Cin | nemilar: what terminals were centos and gentoo tried in? | 04:23 |
| codyduncan | but either something was screwy, or I am too inexperienced to make sense of it | 04:23 |
| nemilar | Cin: gentoo was gnome-terminal, centos was in konsole | 04:23 |
| codyduncan | and also | 04:23 |
| Cin | ah, i see | 04:23 |
| codyduncan | I found so many different methods online, it seemed, to use ndiswrapper, that I wasn't sure which to follow | 04:24 |
| bazhang | !ndiswrapper | 04:24 |
| ubotu | Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 04:24 |
| soldats | kyleBAKED, was your question answered | 04:24 |
| nemilar | Cin: yeah, crashes in konsole on ubuntu, too | 04:24 |
| nemilar | def. a debian thing | 04:24 |
| codyduncan | so basically | 04:24 |
| nemilar | I am going to write them an angry letter! | 04:24 |
| codyduncan | I am now at the point to take on ndiswrapper | 04:24 |
| codyduncan | but I am not sure how to go about it | 04:24 |
| bod_ | !enter | codyduncan | 04:25 |
| ubotu | codyduncan: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 04:25 |
| codyduncan | I've looked at the wiki | 04:25 |
| Cin | nemilar: well. i might submit a bug report but i don't think it is -that- urgent, clearly it isn't so common otherwise it would've cropped up | 04:25 |
| codyduncan | understood. | 04:25 |
| bod_ | thanks | 04:25 |
| bod_ | codyduncan, the best documentation would be ubuntu docs | 04:25 |
| bazhang | best read up on it further codyduncan unless someone here wants to walk you through it step by step | 04:25 |
| bod_ | !ndiswrapper | 04:25 |
| ubotu | Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 04:25 |
| bardyr | codyduncan, ndiswrapper is really easy, apt-get install build-essentials, then download the latest release and make && sudo make install it | 04:25 |
| bod_ | codyduncan, found in there | 04:25 |
| codyduncan | I don't want to hassle anyone, but if anyone can send me to a difinitive source, I mean one that isn't going to send me all over the place until I find myself back where I started, that would be appreciated. If I still am bewildered, I will come back, tail between my legs, looking for a kind heart to lead me along. | 04:27 |

| soldats | sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart | 04:36 |
| tatami | joeb3_: thanks. Can you explain to me what is chmod, and why did I have to use it on a bin if some of them are executable? | 04:36 |
| soldats | will restart gnome | 04:36 |
| === dgtlchlk is now known as dgtl|screen | ||
| soldats | tatami, chmod changes permissions so a certain user can access them | 04:37 |
| tatami | soldats: ahh... thats wierd, I would expect it just to prompt me for a sudo password | 04:37 |
| joeb3_ | tatami, the last time I downloaded java, the bin file was not executable. | 04:38 |
| spiffman | soldats: thanks, but restarting isn't the issue... gnome refuses to open. If i go through terminal and type xstart, i get "error starting GNOME" and almost nothing works | 04:38 |
| phuzion | How would I make a shortcut on my desktop to a win32 application that I need to run through Wine? | 04:38 |
| soldats | spiffman, is there any X11 errors or xorg errors | 04:38 |
| tatami | huh... | 04:38 |

| guest22 | Does anyone know what's happened to launchpad.net? (I'm referring to the strange character substitutions on all pages.) Has it been hacked? | 04:39 |
| soldats | spiffman, when did this happen and what were you doing when it happened | 04:39 |

| VvWolverinevV | hi, i have a big problem, i uninstalled kubuntu-desktop and everything that came with it, and when i restarted i couldn't use my mouse or my keyboard! | 04:44 |
| kezzy | hey | 04:44 |
| EnsignRedshirt | !someone | 04:44 |
| ubotu | A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? | 04:44 |
| soldats | patogen, well first you should keep your question to 1 line. also if most of the time if everything works fine its probly ok. if youwant to check to see if it works with ubuntu download the livecd for the correct architecture and run the livecd to make sure everything runs properly | 04:44 |
| zanegdff | the iso image when you open it there are no exe files how to install then | 04:44 |
| VvWolverinevV | wait, nvm, it just took a long time to regain control, lol | 04:44 |
| zanegdff | please help | 04:45 |
| kezzy | Is there a way to boot my current windows installation inside ubuntu using a virtual machine or something of that sort? Not a fresh install of xp | 04:45 |
| spiffman | soldats: i also tried deleting some .conf files, but the problem doesn't seem to pertain to configuration... is there a way to salvage it or am i looking at an os reinstall? | 04:45 |
| bod_ | zanegdff, an iso is an exact image of a cd | 04:45 |
| bod_ | zanegdff, you burn it to a cd then use it like an original cd | 04:45 |
| zanegdff | but then how do i install i do not have a cd writer | 04:45 |
| soldats | spiffman, a nasty solution is to remove gdm via "sudo aptitude remove gdm" then after that do "sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg" | 04:46 |
| venger_ | kezzy, try out virtualbox | 04:46 |
| kezzy | thats..impressive zanegdff | 04:46 |
| guest22 | What's happened to launchpad.net? (I'm referring to the strange character substitutions on all pages.) Has it been hacked? | 04:46 |
| venger_ | amigappc, does your sound card show up in aplay -l? | 04:46 |
| zanegdff | yes | 04:46 |
| kezzy | Vanger, I was just look at that, Will it boot any windows installation, even from another HDD? | 04:46 |
| codyduncan | so, while trying to install ndiswrapper, based on instructions from http://www.grillbar.org/wordpress/?p=176 , I get the following error upon tring to apt-get ndiswrapper: "unable to find a source package for ndiswrapper" | 04:46 |
| zanegdff | yes | 04:46 |
| patogen | soldats: Well yes it works fine ... it was slow to install but it works like a charm ... but I want to know like the disks risk of hardware failure... | 04:46 |
| Scunizi | guest22 looks fine from my end | 04:47 |
| soldats | spiffman, you might be able to try the second command i gave you first if you want to keet the graphic display manager for the login. otherwise try to remove gdm as well | 04:47 |
| amigappc | venger_: maybe, he shows something up ... HDA Intel ... | 04:47 |
| soldats | patogen, how old is it | 04:47 |
| kezzy | I thought virtualbox only works with fresh installs of xp, I didnt know you were able to point it at your old windows parition | 04:48 |
| patogen | soldats: I'm not sure ... 3-4 years | 04:48 |
| bullgard4 | What progam will create a 'machine object', for example /usr/share/locale-langpack/de/LC_MESSAGES/kfileshare.mo, and what is its purpose or use? | 04:48 |
| soldats | patogen, has it been dropped at all | 04:48 |
| patogen | soldats: Not that I know of | 04:48 |
| venger_ | kezzy, not that i know of, have you checked their FAQ? i'd imagine you'd have to image or convert it somehow | 04:48 |
| guest22 | Scunizi: Nothing strange at all? For example, on the top level page, I see "Delete packages erom yotr PPA" and "Branch eeeds". | 04:48 |
| spiffman | soldats: k i uninstalled gdm and tried that other line, but i'm still in the same boat... i'll try a restart and see if anything changes | 04:48 |
| codyduncan | I need help with an error I got trying to apt-get ndiswrapper "Unable to find a source package for ndiswrapper" | 04:49 |
| kezzy | venger, You think its possible though? and No I havent checked that. | 04:49 |
| Scunizi | guest22: nope.. looks very normal | 04:49 |
| soldats | patogen, well firstly id listen to the hdd spin up and make sure it sounds "not TOO loud" also when its spinning make sure it doesnt get TOO hot | 04:49 |
| venger_ | kezzy, thats where i'd start virtualbox.org i do believe | 04:49 |

| zylstra555 | Hello, Apt-get keeps prompting for my Linux CD. I have a perfectly good internet connection, and a not so great CD drive... how do I get it to just download from the internet, and not attempt to copy from the CD? | 04:50 |
| venger_ | amigappc, so you do show something? | 04:50 |
| soldats | spiffman, the second command i gave you will attempt to recreate the xorg.conf to something that is useable. so a restart is a must but when you login it will be in textmode until you try startx again | 04:50 |
| spiffman | soldats: gdm uninstall finished successfully, but nothing was fixed... | 04:50 |
| ArthurArchnix | In add/remove, under preferences, you can uncheck the box beside CDROM to make it stop using it. | 04:50 |

| soldats | spiffman, maybe "sudo aptitude reinstall ubuntu-desktop" | 05:02 |
| stunatra | barex, it should be in the repos. | 05:02 |
| oboy03 | im updating this libpcre3 | 05:02 |

| oboy03 | i updated again and the same thing happens | 05:02 |

| pranith | hi guys | 05:15 |
| codyduncan | fredo! | 05:15 |
| dbmood1 | 32-bit packages: The Ubuntu 7.10 package is available here. Just download the package for your release, double-click the file, and install the package. For other releases, download and extract this archive and double-click the corresponding file to your release. | 05:15 |
| spiffman | aahaha | 05:15 |
| kezzy | haha no kidding gidim | 05:15 |
| pranith | can anyone tell me how to use gtalk in linux? | 05:15 |
| kezzy | thats the ONLY reason im running windows right now | 05:15 |
| ArthurArchnix | oboy03: You juts have to scroll down. Essentially, you should just execute the package file. | 05:15 |
| dbmood1 | sorry for the paste but sam is spamming this channel | 05:15 |
| kezzy | god damned games | 05:15 |
| pranith | i mean any alternative for that? | 05:15 |
| gidim | Me too. Ubuntu will save us, in time. | 05:15 |
| venger_ | soldats, thats why i'm running ubuntu to get spoiled and stupid | 05:16 |
| kezzy | you may be the person i should ask this gidim | 05:16 |
| kezzy | know how I would boot my old windows parition in ubuntu using virutal box or anything of that sort? | 05:16 |
| gidim | I just don't feel like shelling out for Cedega when I paid for the games, playing them should not cost me more, unless the game states otherwise. | 05:16 |
| jeffMASTERflex | pranith: pidgin has a jabber account setting to configure your gtalk account | 05:16 |
| kezzy | cedega? | 05:16 |
| codyduncan | spiffman in the lab coding? | 05:16 |
| gidim | Wine with cutting-edge support for a monthly fee. | 05:16 |
| pranith | jeffMASTERflex, i want to use VOIP, to make calls | 05:16 |
| kezzy | oh boo | 05:16 |
| gidim | It's a fork. | 05:16 |
| gidim | But more games work with it. | 05:16 |
| soldats | venger_, lol, i switch back and forth. i still love the "other" one | 05:17 |
| kezzy | war3? | 05:17 |
| jeffMASTERflex | pranith: nope sorry, can't help there | 05:17 |
| spiffman | codyduncan not quite... my computer went insane | 05:17 |
| kezzy | cause thats what I want | 05:17 |
| pranith | :( | 05:17 |
| gidim | And by paying, you get to tell them what games you want them to work on next. | 05:17 |
| kezzy | although gridwars keeps me happy for hours | 05:17 |
| pranith | jeffMASTERflex, what about tapioca? | 05:17 |
| kezzy | haha well that'd be nice | 05:17 |
| gidim | WarCraft 3 works in Cedega last I saw. | 05:17 |
| pranith | jeffMASTERflex, does'nt it work? | 05:17 |
| kezzy | how well though? | 05:17 |
| codyduncan | mine is just still dumb | 05:17 |
| gidim | It's $5 a month if I remember right. | 05:17 |
| fatedkiss | anyone know the syntax for termianl so i can change what java plugin im using? | 05:17 |
| kezzy | ooo | 05:17 |
| kezzy | thats not too bad | 05:17 |
| gidim | I just don't feel like paying that. | 05:17 |
| kezzy | lazy | 05:17 |
| jeffMASTERflex | pranith: i know nothin of tapioca or voip software, sorry | 05:17 |
| gidim | That's how they get you. | 05:17 |
| kezzy | true | 05:17 |
| gidim | I already pay $30 a month for two EQ accounts. I play on FV. | 05:18 |
| codyduncan | though, I am digging this new setup, even without wireless or flash | 05:18 |
| spiffman | what you trying to do? | 05:18 |
| sam__ | cAN I PUT IE7 ON UBUNTU? | 05:18 |
| kezzy | I played on xegony when i played | 05:18 |
| kezzy | you can | 05:18 |
| codyduncan | I'm trying to setup ndiswrapper so I can use a windows driver for my wireless card | 05:18 |
| kezzy | but why? | 05:18 |
| zetheroo | is there an irc chat for crossover office? | 05:18 |
| kezzy | why in gods name would you put IE7 on ubuntu? | 05:18 |
| singlesun | LOL | 05:18 |
| gidim | IE7 is evil. | 05:18 |
| singlesun | wow... fun time to step in here.. LOL | 05:18 |
| gidim | Why do people put Windows on an Apple? | 05:18 |
| EnsignRedshirt | kezzy: To test web pages... | 05:18 |
| gidim | Just to do it. | 05:18 |
| kezzy | very true | 05:18 |
| kezzy | oh shh ensign | 05:18 |
| ganesh | help me to update the grub when i copied a filesystem into another partition... | 05:19 |
| kezzy | thats not a good reason | 05:19 |
| zetheroo | sam__: why would you want to use IE7 in Ubuntu ? | 05:19 |
| soldats | !ot > gidim | 05:19 |
| kezzy | gidim, 50 Cleric is the highest i got. | 05:19 |
| soldats | !ot > kezzy | 05:19 |
| spiffman | exciting... i may have to come over soon to get the ubuntu install disk and reinstall it completely... | 05:19 |
| kezzy | oh fine soldats. | 05:19 |
| bkar | when one does a command compiz --replace gconf does it replace gconf? how one would get it back to gconf? am not sure what is being replaced | 05:19 |
| spiffman | still haven't given up quite yet | 05:19 |
| codyduncan | yeah, you left that here | 05:19 |
| singlesun | lol... ok... i will change this topic.... umm... away from IE7 and ubuntu... does anyone know if there is a decent GUI based app python related for ubuntu? | 05:20 |
| crdlb | bkar: no, not exactly ... | 05:20 |
| codyduncan | me neither | 05:20 |
| jeffMASTERflex | bkar: instead of using gconf for configuration, compiz would use its own config files | 05:20 |
| crdlb | bkar: gconf is the plugin you're starting compiz with (you really should just leave that off and let it use ccp automatically) | 05:20 |
| soldats | singlesun, huh. most of the apps in ubuntu are written in python | 05:20 |
| joeKr | I was trying to share my wireless card ra0 via eth0 for another PC without wireless (like "Internet Connection Sharing" in Windows) and I have somehow created (in ifconfig) ra0:avahi and wmaster0-00, and now my wireless doesn't work. What did I do, how can I restore wireless, and how can I share wireless? | 05:20 |
| crdlb | bkar: compiz is replacing the official gnome window manager, metacity | 05:20 |
| soldats | crdlb, metacity --replace | 05:20 |
| bkar | crdlb and to get back the metacity is metacity --replace? | 05:21 |
| singlesun | soldats, i mean... how do you launch the interactive interface to do programming in python on ubuntu... i just switched over from winblows a little while ago | 05:21 |
| crdlb | bkar: yup | 05:21 |
| crdlb | bkar: or just use System > Preferences > Appearance > Visual Effects | 05:21 |
| crdlb | setting it to None will start metacity | 05:21 |
| codyduncan | so how does one run a command in a directory? | 05:21 |
| bkar | crdlb okay thank you, i just dont want to make this as permanent changes | 05:21 |
| singlesun | soldats, is there a gui based app you can use... instead of running python in term? | 05:21 |
| spiffman | what kind of command? like a shell command? | 05:21 |
| soldats | singlesun, open a terminal and type python. youll get the python interface. if you want the gui-ish one youll need to install "idle" | 05:22 |
| codyduncan | remember who you're talking to | 05:22 |
| ganesh | help me to update the grub when i copied a filesystem into another partition... | 05:22 |
| crdlb | bkar: so run 'compiz --replace' | 05:22 |
| crdlb | no gconf | 05:22 |
| spiffman | hehe... ok... what IS the command | 05:22 |
| bkar | crdlb-> okay thanks | 05:22 |
| codyduncan | I don't know, I am following instructions on http://www.grillbar.org/wordpress/?p=176 that someone directed me to | 05:22 |
| singlesun | soldats, yeah... that is what i was referring to.... i will check out this idle package real quick. ;) thx man | 05:22 |
| codyduncan | the command is there | 05:22 |
| kezzy | how I would boot my old windows parition in ubuntu using virutal box or anything of that sort? | 05:22 |
| codyduncan | basically, I extracted the .tar for ndiswrapper | 05:22 |
| soldats | codyduncan, cd /path/to/dir then run whatever command you want | 05:22 |
| gidi1 | I never do that, I merely mount the partition. I don't want to run a Windows VM under Ubuntu. | 05:23 |
| codyduncan | and need to take it from there | 05:23 |
| gidi1 | I also made sure all my partitions are FAT32 for maximum compatibility. | 05:23 |
| EnsignRedshirt | ouch | 05:23 |
| kezzy | good idea, but you see, I play games | 05:23 |
| gidi1 | It's sad, but it had to be done. I miss EXT3. | 05:23 |
| bkar | kezzy-> not booting your old partition, you have to install an xp on a virtual box vdi or vmware vdmk virtual disk | 05:23 |
| kezzy | which is where it hits me | 05:23 |
| spiffman | ok... you already did the remove command? | 05:23 |
| === Schnubelhopper is now known as assline | ||
| kezzy | theres no way to boot an already installed version of windows? | 05:23 |
| codyduncan | removed the old ndiswrapper, yes | 05:24 |
| singlesun | soldats, thx man ... thats exactly what i was looking for ;) | 05:24 |
| soldats | singlesun, cool | 05:24 |
| bkar | kezzy-> not from a virtual box or vmware | 05:24 |
| codyduncan | when I tried to apt-get the ndiswrapper I got an error | 05:24 |
| kezzy | damn it. | 05:24 |
| spiffman | what error? | 05:24 |
| bkar | kezzy-> however you can mount those old partitions within virtualbox or vmware | 05:25 |
| bkar | just cant attempt to boot of it | 05:25 |
| bkar | off of* | 05:25 |
| codyduncan | I tried again, and got "Unable to find a source package for ndiswrapper" | 05:25 |
| jc | Dusti[n]: well I've rebooted and when I look under add/Remove I can't select wine | 05:26 |
| kezzy | mounting them in vbox would only allow me to edit the files | 05:26 |
| kezzy | not run programs | 05:26 |
| kezzy | correct? | 05:26 |
| bkar | correcto mundo | 05:26 |
| bkar | wait, maybe it wil, like you're network accessing a file..i have not tried though..you can try and let us know | 05:27 |
| spiffman | try 'sudo apt-get update' and then try again | 05:27 |
| codyduncan | same problem | 05:28 |
| kezzy | well if it doesnt work | 05:28 |
| kezzy | im just buying cedega | 05:28 |
| venger_ | kezzy if you have an nvidia card try your luck with wine, some games actually run such as Lotro | 05:29 |
| sixpence | kezzy: Pfft Buying Cedega? Nice. | 05:29 |
| adelie42 | is there an easy way to set bindings for a 10 button mouse other than messing with the xorg.conf? | 05:30 |
| jc | spiffman: I don't know if you were replying to me, but I tried the apt-get update and I still can not select wine from add/remove | 05:30 |
| phuzion | Is it possible to move an install of firefox from windows to linux with all of the bookmarks, extensions, etc? | 05:30 |
| spiffman | jc: i wasn't, sorry :P | 05:31 |
| kezzy | Venger_ Its the ammount of games im playing, Hellgate london, UT3, Warcraft 3, planetside, etc | 05:31 |
| kezzy | so theres so many i need Really good support | 05:31 |
| adelie42 | jc: had the same problem. don't know why, but if you just use synaptic package manager from the system -> administration menu, and search for wine, it works just fine | 05:31 |
| kezzy | Sixpence, Yessssss | 05:31 |
| jc | spiffman: thats ok it was worht the try anyway | 05:31 |
| sixpence | kezzy: ... hah | 05:31 |
| gidi1 | At least you didn't say WoW. | 05:32 |
| kezzy | sixpence : I need the game lovin, or imma be a windows whore forever | 05:32 |
| adelie42 | kezzy: you would likely be best to get a subscription to cedega | 05:32 |
| codyduncan | yeah man, no dice, same error "Unable to find a source package for ndiswrapper" | 05:32 |
| spiffman | cody, i'm gonna find out where the ndiswrapper repositories are, that'll let you get the dependencies | 05:32 |
| kezzy | Gidi1 : Ive already done that, 53 troll rogue | 05:32 |
| kezzy | Adelie42 : Thats what I'm thinking. | 05:32 |
| jc | adelie42: but when I install it that way there I don't get the menu option for wine installed | 05:32 |
| adelie42 | jc: menu option? | 05:32 |
| sixpence | kezzy: What game? What's the problem? | 05:33 |
| gidi1 | I refuse to bend to Cedega. I will get my games working in Wine all by myself or die trying. | 05:33 |
| kezzy | Sixpence : ubuntu hates games | 05:33 |
| kezzy | Sixpence : or rather, windows hates ubuntu | 05:33 |
| sixpence | kezzy: What game? | 05:33 |
| IndyGunFreak | kezzy: its not that ubuntu hates games, if you have Linux games, they run fine, its better to say Game makers hate linux | 05:33 |
| gidi1 | Ubuntu means what? Humanity to others, death to games? | 05:34 |
| venger_ | jc: wine doesn't show up for me on add/remove, did you try synaptic ? | 05:34 |
| jc | adelie42: this is the second time I've installed, the first time (I don't remember how I installed it) I ended up with a wine section under the applications menu which had a nice Programs subsection with my installed programs in it | 05:34 |
| kezzy | Gidi1 : Sorry, im a bitch for the easy route | 05:34 |
| kezzy | Sixpence : war3, UT3, hellgate, vangaurd, a ton of other games | 05:34 |
| gidi1 | If I wanted the easy route, I'd be a happy Windows user and not a reluctant Windows user. | 05:34 |
| sixpence | kezzy: UT3 is going to have a Linux port | 05:35 |
| === alan is now known as speeddemon8803 | ||
| sixpence | kezzy: By War3 do you mean Warcraft 3? | 05:35 |
| kezzy | I do | 05:35 |
| gidi1 | Yes. | 05:35 |
| kezzy | and thats impressive.. | 05:35 |
| sixpence | kezzy: :-P Only a dislexic person couldn't get that workin on Linux. | 05:35 |
| kezzy | what?! | 05:35 |
| kezzy | dog damn it | 05:35 |
| kezzy | I mean god! | 05:35 |
| kezzy | ;_P | 05:35 |
| amr | hi | 05:35 |
| sixpence | kezzy: :-P | 05:36 |
| sixpence | kezzy: What problems you having with War3? | 05:36 |
| jc | venger_: It installs fro synaptic just no nice menu like before, I just don't remember how I got the nice menu the first time | 05:36 |
| kezzy | sixpence : no but really, how? | 05:36 |
| sixpence | kezzy: :-| There are tonnes of guides out there on the subject. | 05:36 |
| sixpence | Tonnnnes | 05:36 |
| kezzy | Sixpence, honestly I havent even tried it...cause i figured it wouldnt work | 05:36 |
| sixpence | kezzy: O.o | 05:36 |
| sixpence | kezzy: Then you may as well go back to Windows. Hell no, it's not going to work on your first try | 05:37 |
| kezzy | i always figured linux = no games | 05:37 |
| sixpence | kezzy: This is Linux, son. | 05:37 |
| sixpence | kezzy: Wow... | 05:37 |
| sixpence | kezzy: War3 will, in most cases, run better on Linux than Windows. | 05:37 |
| sixpence | As well as many other games. | 05:37 |
| spiffman | codyduncan, alright well i found this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=25683 | 05:37 |
| kezzy | Thats a given. | 05:37 |
| IndyGunFreak | Games on Linux, some work well, alot of them barely work, many of them don't wrk at all. | 05:37 |
| gidi1 | Now, if only the game makers would stop relying on DirectX. | 05:37 |
| venger_ | jc: you talking about the Applications menu items? | 05:37 |
| kezzy | i love me some direct X | 05:37 |
| gidi1 | I love me some OpenGL. | 05:38 |
| jc | venger_: yes the Applications menu | 05:38 |
| kezzy | Why cant they make directX work in ubuntu? | 05:38 |
| sixpence | kezzy: :-| | 05:38 |
| gidi1 | Because MS doesn't release the code. | 05:38 |
| kezzy | Oh | 05:38 |
| sixpence | kezzy: Go read a guide. | 05:38 |
| kezzy | Bastards. | 05:38 |
| venger_ | jc, well its only good for the default WINEPREFIX really, what you going to do when you start running multiple prefixes? | 05:38 |

| singlesun | soldats, astro76 i will check those out... thanks ;) | 05:40 |
| venger_ | jc, you went with a winehq install? | 05:41 |
| astro76 | singlesun: also this free book http://www.diveintopython.org/ | 05:41 |
| singlesun | astro76, thx | 05:41 |
| soldats | diveintopython is very good | 05:42 |
| IndyGunFreak | is there a better way to insall wine, than from Winehq? | 05:42 |
| jc | venger_: well I think so I added winehq to my list of repositories and then installed it via synaptic - should I have done it differently? | 05:42 |
| schwepps | IndyGunFreak, uhhh... apt? | 05:42 |
| ericvw | What is the reverse sequencing instead of Alt+Tab to switch between windows? | 05:42 |
| ericvw | because Alt+Shift+Tab doesn't work | 05:42 |
| venger_ | jc, just curious i've done the same thing but didn't lose my menu and there bitch posts about uninstalling wine and it leaving the menus | 05:43 |
| gidi1 | I read the guide and added the repository and ran synaptic. | 05:43 |
| IndyGunFreak | schwepps: sure, but what i'm saying is, someone insinuated adding the wine repo was bad, i was just curious what the issue was.. .i've always installed via the wine repo, for several years | 05:43 |
| schwepps | ericvw, you can check and configure it in system->pref->keyboard shortcuts | 05:43 |
| tehquickness | anyone know why my harddrive would be slowing down? | 05:43 |
| IndyGunFreak | jc: did you say wine isn't in your menu? | 05:44 |

| IndyGunFreak | !flashissue | alexander | 05:45 |
| ubotu | alexander: 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. | 05:45 |

| alexander | used alien to create a debian package | 05:49 |
| alexander | and installed it | 05:49 |
| skyhook | hi, does anyone know where to change the fonts on the desktop? | 05:49 |
| soldats | alexander, are you sure the install via the adobe site worked. | 05:49 |
| mkquist | alexander: i removed and reinstalled it even... | 05:49 |
| skyhook | specifically the size | 05:49 |
| alexander | IndyGunFreak: no I'm not sure actually, how can I check | 05:49 |
| IndyGunFreak | alexander: uname -r in a terminal | 05:49 |
| soldats | lol beat me to it^ | 05:49 |
| IndyGunFreak | alexander: sorry, uname -a | 05:50 |
| alexander | i686 | 05:50 |
| IndyGunFreak | hmmm | 05:50 |
| IndyGunFreak | then you're doing something wrong | 05:50 |
| alexander | :) | 05:50 |
| alexander | now we're on the same page | 05:50 |
| IndyGunFreak | alexander: did you download the source package from adobe.com and install it | 05:51 |
| IndyGunFreak | ? | 05:51 |
| jc | venger_: That worked thanks! | 05:51 |
| soldats | alexander, download the tar again and follow the directions from the site. dont use alien this time | 05:51 |
| alexander | I downloaded the *rpm* from here: | 05:51 |
| alexander | http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash | 05:51 |
| IndyGunFreak | YOU USED FREAKIN ALIEN FOR FLASH!!! | 05:51 |
| IndyGunFreak | are you nuts? | 05:51 |
| alexander | I couldn't download the tar file when I tried | 05:51 |
| IndyGunFreak | no wonder it didn't work.. geeez | 05:51 |
| alexander | hahaha, ya I figured that was it | 05:51 |
| IndyGunFreak | !alien | alexander | 05:52 |
| ubotu | alexander: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous) | 05:52 |
| alexander | can someone follow that link and see if they can download the tar? | 05:52 |
| alexander | ya, I knew it was red hat, but I didn't know about the dangers | 05:52 |
| IndyGunFreak | alexander: yes, its working fine | 05:52 |
| alexander | hm, not sure why I can't download it then; I'll try it on another computer prehaps | 05:52 |
| * IndyGunFreak is still ina absolute disbelief you tried to use alien for flash.. ::sighs:: | 05:52 | |
| mkquist | alexander: im d/l'ing it now, works fine for me | 05:52 |
| soldats | lol | 05:53 |
| IndyGunFreak | i just downloaded it, no prob. | 05:53 |
| alexander | alright thanks everyone I'll just try to get my hands on the tar | 05:53 |
| IndyGunFreak | alexander: its not a big file, you have a yahoo email address? | 05:53 |
| alexander | thanks IndyGunFreak but it's alright I've got a pal sending it to me already | 05:53 |
| IndyGunFreak | alexander: ok. | 05:53 |
| * IndyGunFreak goes to get a drink from the stress | 05:54 | |

| mkquist | ok, i have sound, (thought i didnt) but cant open alsamixer... any ideas? | 05:57 |
| IndyGunFreak | mkquist: do you get an error when you run "alsamixer" no quotes, in a terminal? | 05:57 |
| soldats | mkquist, try amixer | 05:57 |
| kr00l | c: I don't know if i can get it working. i just want to be able to talk to my window buddies. They won't go to TeamSpeak | 05:58 |
| iKap | hey stupid question, did anyone here get sopcast on ubuntu?! | 05:58 |
| IndyGunFreak | sopcast? | 05:58 |
| kr00l | For sale 1 Logitech G15 in excellent condition! | 05:58 |
| Flynsarmy | Is ubuntu faster with desktop effects enabled or turned off? | 05:58 |
| mkquist | IndyGunFreak: yep sure do - 'alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device' | 05:58 |
| IndyGunFreak | hmm, no clue on that one. | 05:58 |
| c | kr00l: you should be able to get it running in listening mode fairly easy. getting your MIC to work with it, will be very hard, as it's been for me. | 05:59 |
| IndyGunFreak | Flynsarmy: well, turned off of course... | 05:59 |
| soldats | mkquist, try amixer | 05:59 |
| amigappc | soldats: im back again ^ | 05:59 |
| c | i don't have it working like I want to, but i'm not really sweating it | 05:59 |
| Flynsarmy | IndyGunFreak: That's what i woudl have thought but i read somewhere a while but that it was the other way around. Was just checking :) | 05:59 |
| mkquist | soldats: no such device | 05:59 |
| IndyGunFreak | Flynsarmy: well, you know how the internet is, don't always beleive what you read, but common sense says, given the resources that compiz requries, that if its disabled, the desktop should be faster. | 06:00 |
| mkquist | well at least ive got sound... | 06:00 |
| kr00l | c: I have Quake Wars and it has VOIP in the game but it can't find my Microphone. Also I don't know how to get ubuntu to see my microphone for Skype. Do you know how to set it up correctly? | 06:00 |
| soldats | mkquist, and alsa is installed? wierd amixer comes with alsa in ubuntu afaik | 06:00 |
| PoGz_ | hello guys.. pls help me.. anjuta 2.2.0 wont work.... how do i upgrade to 2.2.3 | 06:01 |
| mkquist | soldats: i even uninstalled and reinstalled it... trying to fix. no go | 06:01 |
| danonura | i downloaded Scorched3D-41.3-src.tar.gz to my desktop. could someone help me a bit to install/ | 06:01 |
| mkquist | soldats: never seen amixer before | 06:01 |
| c | kr00l: i'm very new to linux, so I don't know much about the innards of it. So, other from a quick google search, I don't really know much else about it. | 06:01 |
| soldats | mkquist, hmm thats odd. i have no clue | 06:01 |
| soldats | i might be too tired to think that hard | 06:01 |
| decipher7 | wow over 1100 people in this room. impressive. | 06:01 |
| elninja | Flynsarmy: I think it's faster with compositing on (using the GPU/VRAM for GUI, freeing CPU/memory resources). Although, the using plugins will use more resources accordingly. | 06:01 |
| * syc__ brb, hirup oksigen dulu | 06:02 | |
| Flynsarmy | elninja: Compositing? Is that the desktop effects to 'normal' setting or whatever the default is? | 06:02 |
| IndyGunFreak | decipher7: just think, its a slow night, it regularly gets around 13-1400 in here. | 06:02 |
| kr00l | c: Let me suggest a book to you "Ubuntu Linux Bible" or "Ubuntu For Non Geeks vol 2" <--- this one is the most helpful if you are new. | 06:03 |
| peter120980 | hi, im having problems getting the login gui to load on ubuntu 7.10, someone told me to run "lspci" to see what hardware linux picks up but as i can only do this from recovery prompt it goes way to fast to see it, is there a file i can read with the same info? | 06:03 |
| c | kr00l: thanks, i'll check those out. | 06:03 |
| bardyr | peter120980, lspci | less | 06:03 |
| kr00l | c: you can get them on Amazon really cheap | 06:03 |
| IndyGunFreak | Flynsarmy: i have my systems set to "Normal", and they all seem to work quite well. Well, except a new lapto[p, cuz it has a very new intel set that isn't supported yet, so it is set to none. | 06:03 |
| c | kr00l: k. | 06:03 |
| decipher7 | IndyGunFreak; wow. to think the last time i participated in the linux world was back in 2002. things have really come a long way. | 06:03 |
| IndyGunFreak | decipher7: oh yeah, thats about when I got started, LOT has changed since then, its actually user friendly nowdays..lol | 06:04 |
| peter120980 | bardy, what will that do? | 06:04 |
| elninja | I'm not sure if it's enabled on normal or not. Personally, I have a bunch of plugins enabled and it's very responsive. It feels a little laggy when I'm not running compiz. | 06:04 |
| dydy | can anyone help me.......i can't convert my avi file to 3gp in ubuntu 7.10 | 06:04 |
| bardyr | peter120980, you probably have a ati or nvidia card that the opensource drivers cant handle, try installing the binary drivers for your gfx card | 06:04 |
| soldats | peter120980, prints lspci page by page | 06:04 |
| c | ya, it's alot better than when I tried it in the early days | 06:04 |
| IndyGunFreak | 3gp? | 06:04 |
| IndyGunFreak | why don't you just leave it AVI?.. fi i may ask | 06:04 |
| PoGz_ | someone pls help me... anjuta 2.2.0 is not working on my gutsy platform? pls help me... | 06:04 |
| cwillu | I'm just trying to figure out why openoffice won't spellcheck english by default? Clean gutsy install, told the live cd that I live in canada (us english keyboard), | 06:05 |
| elninja | Yeah, now that i think about it. Normal should have compiz enabled. None is where it's disabled completely. | 06:05 |
| cwillu | I'm amazed that that sort of bug is in a released os to be honest :/ | 06:05 |
| peter120980 | how do i install the binary drivers, yes i do have an nvidia card | 06:05 |
| c | but I still see some things that can be done better (mostly just hardware support, I wish hardware manufacturers would take linux seriously) | 06:05 |
| IndyGunFreak | cwillu: i sincerely doubt its the OS, its like OpenOffice, which is software.. | 06:05 |
| nyquist2773 | PoGz, I just got anjunta working, I might be able to help. | 06:05 |

| IndyGunFreak | decipher7: i don't like PCLinuxOS, mainly cuz I hate RPM, | 06:07 |
| IndyGunFreak | decipher7: i put dreamlinux on an antique laptop I have the other day, it runs very well.... | 06:08 |
| decipher7 | IndyGunFreak: yeah i have it on my P3 500/128MB ram, runs well | 06:08 |
| nyquist2773 | PoGz, lets PM. Did you get my chat req. | 06:08 |
| soldats | i put penlinux inside my bic pen | 06:09 |
| mkquist | well now thats weird gnome-alsamixer works, just not alsamixer... | 06:09 |
| decipher7 | IndyGunFreak: DL 2.2MMGL that is. Yeah I never really cared much for RPM either. Being debian based is another thing that drew me to Ubuntu | 06:09 |
| PoGz_ | nyquit277, yup.. i did | 06:09 |
| IndyGunFreak | decipher7: and finally, Xubuntu, well, i used to really like it on some slower systems I have, but i've found as Xfce has progressed, its almost as heavy as Gnome/KDE... thus why i siwtched that laptop to Dream(P3 633, 256mb, 20gigs) | 06:09 |
| peter120980 | i rebooted but still the same problem, hangs on "*installing local scripts...." or something simlar to that | 06:09 |
| bardyr | mkquist, is gnome-mixer using alsa? | 06:09 |
| soldats | mkquist, you probly dont have the ncurses library | 06:09 |
| bardyr | arrg sorry misread | 06:09 |
| nyquist2773 | ok, why are you not there? | 06:09 |
| peter120980 | if i press enter i get the prompt to login | 06:09 |
| PoGz_ | nyquit2773, lol.. i'm there... | 06:10 |
| IndyGunFreak | decipher7: you should try a straight debian etch 4.0(stable) install.., its quite nice to, if you like a "no frills" ubuntu. | 06:10 |
| mkquist | soldats: where would they be located? | 06:10 |
| IndyGunFreak | but really, Ubuntu is where its at... | 06:11 |
| mkquist | soldats: or, i guess more importantly - what are they? | 06:11 |
| bardyr | peter120980, is your box fully updated? | 06:11 |
| decipher7 | IndyGunFreak: If I had a faster connection. I'm on 56k :( Had one but recently moved so its not set up yet | 06:11 |
| gillza | Hey guys which xdcc script would you recommend? I did a search on xchat web page which returned 11 scripts... not sure which one of them to choose | 06:11 |
| soldats | it should come standard but since you removed alsa and reinstalled it it might have not installed them | 06:11 |

| nyquist2773 | Ok, try again. | 06:12 |

| PoGz_ | nyquit2773, i c | 06:13 |
| mkquist | soldats: i was just gonna say, gnome-alsamixer is just a gui version of alsamixer, so i would think one works, the other underlying one works too | 06:13 |
| nyquist2773 | whell rekon seems to have the answer. | 06:13 |

| soldats | mkquist, the gnome-alsamixer is the gui and alsamixer runs in terminal using ncurses which is a sort of text based gui | 06:14 |
| IndyGunFreak | decipher7: but its biggest drawback, IMO, is its RPM... i read one time it was gonna switch to .deb, but i don't think it ever happened. | 06:14 |

I used Wubi to install Ubuntu because I didn't want to disturb my laptops partitions (it has a recovery partition that is accessible with F11 at boot time).

| amigappc | IndyGunFreak if i run sudo aptitude install build-essential libncurses-dev gettext linux-headers-`uname -r` he ask me for the cd | 06:28 |
| tehquickness | how can a view the log from the boot up or that might have any errors or problems from boot? | 06:28 |
| decipher7 | amigappc" i believe build-essential has dependencies that are on the cd | 06:29 |
| drgeb | I keep seeing this error "ARNING: gdm_slave_xioerror_handler: Fatal X error - Restarting :0" any ideas on how to fix this ? | 06:29 |
| soldats | /var/logs/ maybe | 06:29 |
| jc | night all thanks everyone for all the help - I can sleep better now :) | 06:29 |
| ThipThip | lgc: I just did crontab -e again and it worked. Strange. I must have messed up the first time. We'll see if it works in one minute. :-) | 06:29 |
| amigappc | decipher7: i only have empty DVDs here ... not 1 cd or cdrw | 06:30 |
| lgc | ThipThip, if it's a new file it's fine, I suppose. But with 'crontab -e' you probably make the crontab daemon take into account the new orders. | 06:30 |
| jay-oh-en | how do i install icon themes | 06:30 |
| decipher7 | amigappc: or go to packages.ubuntu.com and search for the packages youre installing it will tell you the dependencies | 06:30 |
| ThipThip | lgc: Yeah no dice. The time comes and goes, but vlc does not open. | 06:30 |

| jay-oh-en | how do i install icon themes | 06:34 |
| ThipThip | lgc: Yeah, it doesn't seem to work. In crontab, when I save, it asks me which file to write, and the default is /tmp/something... Is this cool? Why would vlc not open? Do I need to specify that I want it to output to my screen? | 06:34 |

| soldats | put it in your themes directory | 06:53 |
| soldats | afaik one of the links should say where to put it | 06:54 |
| cmec | soldats the files in it are authors blueM8.png copying gtk-2.0 index.theme license nautilus-back.png Splash-blueM8.png | 06:54 |
| Ademan | cmec: it should go in ~/.themes/Theme-Name or /usr/share/themes/Theme-Name | 06:54 |
| bod_ | hey guys,.,. How do i make usplash screens? | 06:55 |
| Ademan | !usplash | 06:55 |
| ubotu | To select the usplash artwork you want, use "sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so && sudo update-initramfs -u" - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplashCustomizationHowto for adding your custom artwork | 06:55 |
| Ademan | the second link should be about making your own | 06:55 |
| chalcedony | does restarting X restart Xchat and other things? | 06:55 |
| bod_ | Ademan, thats all very well,. but that guide doesnt work for gutsy | 06:55 |
| Ademan | chalcedony: yes unfortunately | 06:55 |
| Ademan | bod_: oh, sorry, that was all i had lol | 06:55 |
| chalcedony | i might as well just restart everyting and do update etc | 06:55 |
| cmec | ok | 06:55 |
| cmec | i will try | 06:55 |
| bod_ | Ademan, no worries,.,.ive been scratching my head for hours | 06:56 |
| soldats | so you have a bald spot on your head now :) | 06:56 |
| Ademan | bod_: i doubt you'd get any more relevant answers but there IS ##linux and #debian, just don't let them know you're not on debian in #debian... they're angry people lol | 06:56 |
| bod_ | soldats, im gettin there m8,. any ideas on my prob? | 06:57 |
| soldats | no but look at ademans post | 06:57 |
| bod_ | Ademan, i dunno what debian is so ,.,.eh,,.,. | 06:57 |
| speeddemon8803 | !debian | 06:57 |
| ubotu | Ubuntu and Debian are closely related. Ubuntu builds on the foundations of Debian architecture and infrastructure, with a different community and release process. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/relationship - Remember, !repositories meant for Debian should NOT be used on Ubuntu! | 06:57 |
| bod_ | soldats, be more specific plz | 06:57 |
| bod_ | speeddemon8803, why thankyou Mr Demon | 06:58 |
| speeddemon8803 | No problem :) | 06:58 |
| soldats | bod_, you can go to the ##linux channel and ask there or gop to the #debian channel and ask there | 06:58 |
| bod_ | soldats, oh,. you mean go away and ask somewhere else?,.,.;) ok | 06:58 |
| soldats | you might get better answers | 06:58 |
| bod_ | lol ;) | 06:58 |
| Ademan | bod_: debian is another linux distro, like ubuntu (in fact debian is sorta like the "parent" of ubuntu because ubuntu is based on it, but debian people tend to be crankier than ubuntu people) | 06:59 |

| astro76 | Gartral: not sure if you can, pidgin is a rather poor irc client | 07:18 |

| cube_ | bod_ i am not.. | 07:19 |
| astro76 | Gartral: the popular ones seem to be xchat, and irssi for command line | 07:19 |
| bod_ | cube_, ok,. just a suggestion | 07:19 |
| bod_ | bitchx | 07:19 |
| cube_ | xchat? | 07:20 |
| Shinobi | Hi, is it possible to create a new partition in the primary master disk of my ubuntu box and install windows on it and run a bual booting system? | 07:20 |
| sunogbaga | phuzion, your not helping | 07:20 |
| speeddemon8803 | xchat is good, im currently using it now | 07:20 |
| bod_ | cube_, no its actually called bitchx | 07:20 |
| bod_ | speeddemon8803, me too | 07:20 |
| cube_ | bod_ i was suggesting another "room fav" | 07:20 |
| bluefoxx | bod_, lol, when i tried a installing onto a sata drive i was using a 6.10 cd and it didnt like it, so i traded it fro the u-ide i have now, then once i filled it up[under 6 monthes] i got a second sata drive[im running upt to date now] and it turns out a older sound card fried my on-board sata or the cable[i found a short in it] | 07:20 |
| bod_ | cube_, damn,.,.sorry, i keep doing this,,.,.my bad | 07:20 |
| raybdbomb | is there a reason there is not a ventrilo-server package? | 07:21 |
| speeddemon8803 | i love the highlight features, and it kinda reminds me of the windows mIRC in a way...or xircon | 07:21 |
| bluefoxx | Gartral, i use all three, xchat irssi and pidgin/gaim | 07:21 |
| goudkov | i just installed gutsy and when i source a file in /bin/sh, it says the file is not found. does anybody know what might cause this? | 07:21 |
| bod_ | bluefoxx, unlucky,.,. sata drives are ace! | 07:21 |
| Shinobi | bod_, Hi, is it possible to create a new partition in the primary master disk of my ubuntu box and install windows on it and run a bual booting system? | 07:21 |
| astro76 | goudkov: what do you mean "source a file in /bin/sh"? what are you doing exactly? | 07:22 |
| bod_ | Shinobi, yes,.,. dont ask me how, but the answer is yes | 07:22 |
| amigappc | *cry* i only want sound out of my boxes ... and linux dont want play it ... | 07:22 |
| goudkov | astro76: sourcing a file in shell. how can it be any more exact than that?? | 07:22 |
| bluefoxx | Gartral, depends on what im doing at the moment, if im using firefox i use irssi, if im using a code/terminal based program i use irssi or xchat, if im doing nothing else i use pidgin | 07:22 |
| bod_ | amigappc, havent you been here for more than a day with that prob? | 07:22 |
| Shinobi | bod_, hehe ok thats all i wanted to know...but can u point me to where i can find out how to reconfigure grub | 07:22 |
| speeddemon8803 | Shinobi, yes,, you would have to reconfigure grub...have no clue about the rest..but yes | 07:22 |
| cube_ | peter: having any luck? i can also tell you how to open your xorg.conf if you need it | 07:22 |
| astro76 | goudkov: what command are you using? | 07:23 |
| bod_ | Shinobi, ur here,. ask about | 07:23 |
| goudkov | astro76: . | 07:23 |
| peter120980 | ok how do i get my xorg file, im installing ubuntu on another pc | 07:23 |
| astro76 | goudkov: that's not a command, it's a link to the current directory | 07:23 |
| goudkov | astro76: rofl. ok, thanks. | 07:23 |
| bluefoxx | bod_, i got it working once, the cable was twisted in some funny way that it worked once, so i tried to install the winxp media center copy i have and it didnt like the drive, infact it bluescreened lol | 07:23 |
| goudkov | anybody else knows what i'm talking about? | 07:23 |
| bod_ | !grub | Shinobi | 07:23 |
| ubotu | Shinobi: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto | 07:23 |
| amigappc | bod_: actualy only today ... but two month ago ... yeah | 07:24 |
| quaal | whats a good usb soundcard | 07:24 |
| astro76 | goudkov: if you would explain what you are doing, you might think you are being clear but you are not | 07:24 |
| cube_ | peter in terminal type : cd / then cd /etc then cd /X11 | 07:24 |
| speeddemon8803 | sweet, i didnt realize ubotu had that extra info in it | 07:24 |
| bod_ | bluefoxx, i hate blue screens,. in winbugs that usually means microbugs is trying to configure something,.,.which always ends up in more bugs | 07:24 |
| Ububegin | hei guys, does ubuntu comes pre-installed apache | 07:24 |
| goudkov | astro76: ok, you can source a file and execute it in the current shell process. the command for that is . | 07:24 |
| cube_ | then type in gedit xorg.conf | 07:24 |
| bod_ | amigappc, hope you get it sorted | 07:25 |
| goudkov | astro76: if you don't know that, you can't possibly help me. | 07:25 |
| bod_ | Ububegin, no | 07:25 |
| speeddemon8803 | Ubuntu server can though | 07:25 |
| astro76 | goudkov: don't be a jerk | 07:25 |
| cube_ | quaal: a cheap logitech one works fine for me | 07:25 |
| bod_ | Ububegin, but 2 secs in Syaptic can get it for you | 07:25 |
| goudkov | astro76: i'm not. | 07:25 |
| Shinobi | speeddemon8803, what should i use to create the partition? | 07:25 |
| speeddemon8803 | Gparted | 07:25 |
| astro76 | goudkov: so you are typing just . ? | 07:25 |
| unknownuser | I love ubuntu | 07:25 |
| speeddemon8803 | live cd | 07:25 |
| Ububegin | bod_ : thanks ... | 07:25 |
| bod_ | Ububegin, no probs | 07:26 |
| amigappc | bod_: yeah ... i know ... its a HDA-intel ... its installed .... but no sound... its crazy | 07:26 |
| astro76 | goudkov: or you are trying to execute a script with a shebang at the top that's #!/bin/sh ? | 07:26 |
| cube_ | peter: cd /etc/X11 | 07:26 |
| bluefoxx | bod_, lol, i ran a laptop that had windows 98 oe on it and it bluescreened 12 times the first day i had it, then my school messed up the wifi cad i had in it and the os crashed | 07:26 |
| astro76 | goudkov: please be clear | 07:26 |
| speeddemon8803 | gparted can actually be used to create a multitude of different file systems | 07:26 |
| goudkov | astro76: of, if you do "sh somefile" it will interpret the file in a separate shell process. if you do ". somefile" then it will interpret and execute it in the current process | 07:26 |
| goudkov | astro76: do you understand the difference and what i'm taking about? | 07:26 |
| cube_ | peter: type cd /etc/X11 into terminal and the type gedit xorg.conf | 07:26 |
| bod_ | bluefoxx, lol,.,. but seriously,.,. ul get !ot by someone soon | 07:26 |
| peter120980 | ok it wont let me do gedit but i can open it using nano | 07:26 |
| user11_011 | does anyone know about setting a yahoo account on pidgin. why is japan shown in advanced tab??? i amon ubuntu 7.10 | 07:26 |
| bluefoxx | bod_, lol | 07:27 |
| bod_ | peter120980, sudo gedit | 07:27 |
| raybdbomb | http://www.howtoforge.com/ventrilo_voice_communication_server_ubuntu_feisty_amd64 sudo apt-get install ia32-libs linux32 | 07:27 |
| cube_ | and copy and paste to pastebin along with your xorg log | 07:27 |
| raybdbomb | says You are about to do something potentially harmful. | 07:27 |
| raybdbomb | To continue type in the phrase 'Yes, do as I say!' | 07:27 |
| astro76 | goudkov: yes, I do now... | 07:27 |
| raybdbomb | gah | 07:27 |
| goudkov | astro76: well, it seems to be broken in my install of gutsy | 07:27 |
| sluggo | goudkov: are you sure the filename is right? try ls filename instead of . filename to be sure | 07:27 |
| goudkov | sluggo: yes. it works if i'm in bash, but if i run bash through /bin/sh which should still be bash, sourcing doesn't work any more | 07:28 |
| goudkov | try it with any file | 07:28 |
| goudkov | create an empty file. then do ". that_file" in bash | 07:28 |
| goudkov | then do | 07:28 |
| goudkov | /bin/sh | 07:28 |
| raybdbomb | why is it harmfule to apt-get install linux32 on my amd64 system | 07:28 |
| astro76 | goudkov: the problem is sh is linked to dash in Ubuntu, not bash | 07:28 |
| goudkov | and in that process do the same | 07:28 |
| bod_ | !enter | goudkov | 07:28 |
| ubotu | goudkov: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 07:28 |
| goudkov | astro76: ah, let me check. i thought ash | 07:29 |
| sluggo | goudkov: /bin/sh is symlinked to dash | 07:29 |
| bod_ | raybdbomb, because its a different distro | 07:29 |
| speeddemon8803 | its not harmful raybdbomb, but you wouldnt be using your full potential of your processor. | 07:29 |
| goudkov | sluggo: yep, now that makes sense. | 07:29 |
| astro76 | goudkov: usually changing it to bash fixes most peoples problems | 07:29 |
| goudkov | astro76: that's what i'm going to do. | 07:29 |
| raybdbomb | bod_ so you're saying it would overwrite the linux64 libs? | 07:29 |
| speeddemon8803 | ive done it without reprocussions..but i might have just got lucky :/ | 07:29 |
| bod_ | raybdbomb, possibly,. im not sure,. are you using synaptic? | 07:30 |
| cube_ | peter: hello? have you pastebin? | 07:30 |
| raybdbomb | sudo apt-get install | 07:30 |
| peter120980 | not yet, i jsut cant figure how to do it | 07:30 |
| raybdbomb | guided from this: http://www.howtoforge.com/ventrilo_voice_communication_server_ubuntu_feisty_amd64 | 07:30 |
| astro76 | goudkov: and as an aside we often start troubleshooting from a very low level in this channel, but we know what we're talking about ;) | 07:30 |
| bod_ | raybdbomb, on one of the last lines, does it say anything will be removed? | 07:30 |
| bod_ | astro76, WOW!!!! you go man!!! | 07:31 |
| raybdbomb | bod_ yes, it says util-linux will be removed | 07:31 |
| goudkov | astro76: i see. that makes sense. i just spent two hours convincing my dsl provider that i'm not a moron and that the problem is on their end. so i'm a bit jumpy :) | 07:31 |
| astro76 | goudkov: hah, yeah telcos are horrid | 07:31 |
| peter120980 | i wont let me use gedit | 07:31 |
| bod_ | raybdbomb, i dunno what that is,.so,,.,.,. id do it anyway lol,. biut thats me,. | 07:31 |
| unknownuser | could you please unplug the modem, even if you have already done it | 07:32 |
| raybdbomb | You are about to do something potentially harmful. | 07:32 |
| raybdbomb | To continue type in the phrase 'Yes, do as I say!' | 07:32 |
| raybdbomb | heh | 07:32 |
| goudkov | well, anyway thanks. i'm going to link sh to bash. that should take care of it. | 07:32 |
| bod_ | raybdbomb, do it, do it, do it | 07:32 |
| raybdbomb | well, oooook | 07:32 |
| goudkov | hmm, in dapper it was linked to bash. why the change? | 07:32 |
| bod_ | raybdbomb, no wait dont!!!!! | 07:33 |
| raybdbomb | haha too late! | 07:33 |
| astro76 | goudkov: to be "lighter on resources" I think | 07:33 |
| bod_ | raybdbomb, lol,.,. im jokin,.,.do it | 07:33 |
| goudkov | astro76: ahh, well, it will break some scripts out there :) | 07:33 |
| astro76 | goudkov: it does indeed | 07:33 |
| astro76 | I've seen several examples | 07:33 |
| astro76 | but often those are using bashisms while claiming to be sh compatible | 07:34 |
| goudkov | it broke most of my work stuff because i put /bin/sh everywhere and . as a means of including redundant stuff | 07:34 |
| peter120980 | i typed "cd /etc/X11" then "sudo gedit xorg.conf" and i get "run `gedit --help`....." | 07:34 |
| speeddemon8803 | If you want a light ubuntu distro i suggest ubuntu studio (joking as studio is known for being a dvd sized distro) | 07:34 |
| bod_ | peter120980, thats odd,. that command is fine | 07:35 |
| peter120980 | i have been using nano to edit the files | 07:35 |
| bod_ | peter120980, use a different text editor | 07:35 |
| astro76 | peter120980: you should use gksudo instead of sudo for gui programs including gedit | 07:36 |
| bod_ | peter120980, sudo nano xorg.conf | 07:36 |
| Sevensins | Hello all ... can someone tell me if there is a snapshots or something like this of the latest alsadriver firmmeware and so on available on ubuntu | 07:36 |

| Sevensins | im gambling around with a script to automatically download and install the whole alsa system but i dont know where to find the latest drivers | 07:37 |
| Sevensins | one thing if found out is that the susue | 07:37 |
| unknownuser | peter: I am sure you knew this but you should backup before you change stuff | 07:37 |
| Sevensins | suseguys have really new firmeware but i think ubuntu must have st like this too | 07:37 |
| bod_ | peter120980, have u made a backup of xorg.conf? | 07:37 |
| Sevensins | can someone give me a hinz or link where to download the latest firmeware aand driver for alsa | 07:38 |
| bod_ | !repeat | Sevensins | 07:38 |
| ubotu | Sevensins: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience | 07:38 |
| peter120980 | yes i have a backup made, i have been tinkering with it but i have no idea what to do now, im at a complete loss | 07:39 |
| bod_ | peter120980, what are you trying to do? | 07:39 |
| peter120980 | load the gnome gui | 07:39 |
| Sevensins | yep ve been seaarching but im not satisfied with what i found | 07:39 |
| bod_ | peter120980, do you mean x? | 07:39 |
| astro76 | Sevensins: why do you need the latest alsa? | 07:40 |
| zombie_monkey | I have some weridness with the package system | 07:40 |
| bod_ | shoot | 07:40 |
| Sevensins | in my case i use a EMu 0404 and i got i up and running with suses snapshot the script works fine but i want the latest hotest drivers | 07:40 |
| peter120980 | yes maybe thats it | 07:40 |
| Sevensins | an emu | 07:40 |
| zombie_monkey | In update there is the package hal-cups-utils that is for update but I can't check it | 07:40 |
| Sevensins | excuse me im german and not used to writing so fast | 07:41 |
| peter120980 | whatever the gui is i cant display it | 07:41 |
| astro76 | Sevensins: wanting the latest hotest is not a good enough excuse ;) | 07:41 |
| astro76 | we support released versions in here | 07:41 |
| bod_ | sudo apt-get install hal-cups-utils zombie_monkey | 07:41 |
| zombie_monkey | bod_: it's already installed, but there's a nwerer version | 07:41 |
| ganesh | how to upldate the grub when the filesystem copied from live cd | 07:41 |
| Sevensins | hmm what i thought actually astro and m8s but isnt there any advice you can give a poor sound enthausiast | 07:42 |
| bod_ | zombie_monkey, eerrrmm,. theres a command,. i cant remember,.,. have a look at man aptitude | 07:42 |
| zombie_monkey | bod_: ok | 07:42 |
| bod_ | peter120980, type startx | 07:42 |
| astro76 | Sevensins: maybe see if the #ubuntu-studio people can help | 07:42 |
| Sevensins | thx m8 | 07:42 |
| Sevensins | im gonna go there | 07:42 |
| Sevensins | if they help me i ll make the script available | 07:42 |
| astro76 | Sevensins: don't expect that channel to be as active as this one though ;) | 07:42 |
| astro76 | good luck | 07:43 |
| Sevensins | well no problem and thx | 07:43 |
| bod_ | astro76, whats the command to update a package? | 07:43 |
| Sevensins | the script actually works like the shit now but i want community based installations who knows if suse will still bbe there tomorrow | 07:44 |
| bod_ | !language | Sevensins | 07:44 |
| Sevensins | did i say or think that ? :) | 07:44 |
| ubotu | Sevensins: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. | 07:44 |
| astro76 | bod_: a single package? not sure usually you just update everything with apt-get upgrade | 07:44 |
| Sevensins | yep | 07:44 |
| bod_ | astro76, will that install updates? | 07:44 |
| astro76 | bod_: yes of course you would do apt-get update first to get the updated package lists first | 07:45 |
| bod_ | astro76, ty | 07:45 |
| zombie_monkey | bod_: i figured it out, the new version of the package depends on a gnome version of a program, and the old one depends on a gtk version | 07:45 |
| astro76 | bod_: so an update would be sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade | 07:45 |
| bod_ | astro76, cheers | 07:46 |
| zombie_monkey | bod_: they depend on different packages that conflict | 07:46 |
| peter120980 | ok i typed startx and i got Fatal server error, server is already running for display 0 | 07:46 |
| bod_ | zombie_monkey, ah,.,.damn | 07:46 |
| astro76 | peter120980: it was already running, do: sudo invoke-rc.d gdm restart | 07:47 |

| unknownuser | lol | 07:48 |
| phuzion | what are good codecs to get HD video working effectively in Ubuntu, preferably with VLC | 07:48 |
| astro76 | I had a feeling | 07:48 |
| bod_ | !lol | unknownuser | 07:49 |
| ubotu | unknownuser: Please don't use "LOL" and "OMG" and so forth on a regular basis. This is IRC, not IM, and using those lines on their own is not required, and it is rather annoying to the rest of the people in the channel; thanks. | 07:49 |
| astro76 | phuzion: with ubuntu-restricted-extras and w32codecs you shouldn't need anything else | 07:49 |
| phuzion | so just apt-get those? | 07:49 |
| astro76 | phuzion: yes, but w32codecs is in medibuntu | 07:49 |
| astro76 | !medibuntu | phuzion | 07:49 |

| Doctor-Who | Hello! | 08:05 |
| ubotu | barbedsaber: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! | 08:05 |
| barbedsaber | oh, so there are people here | 08:05 |
| peter120980 | unknownuser_ thanks for the link but i have tried pretty much everything on the post, i can find quite a bit on ATI cards with this problem but i have nvidia cards | 08:05 |
| peter120980 | im thinking linux maybe just isnt for me, i been going round in circles for 2 days solid now, trawling forums etc | 08:07 |
| b00 | wtf? | 08:08 |
| b00 | i got banned | 08:08 |
| unknownuser_ | peter: it can be trying at times, but hopefully we can get you fixed up | 08:08 |
| peter120980 | problem is im so new to linux i dont really know what im doing | 08:08 |
| DEXTREX | Is there a channel that gives learning tutorials on ubuntu? | 08:08 |
| DEXTREX | Im new to linux too. | 08:09 |
| josh__ | any talk on when the flash plugin will be fixed ? | 08:09 |
| peter120980 | need me to explain my problem or did you see it earlier? | 08:09 |
| barbedsaber | Dextrex, what are you looking for specificly, google is usefull for that, try the howto section of the forums. | 08:09 |
| zetheroo | would you say Adobe PS is more resource hungry than the GIMP? | 08:10 |
| barbedsaber | please explain | 08:10 |
| unknownuser_ | peter: from what I understand you have gdm on 0 | 08:10 |
| DEXTREX | I dont really know anything to do with terminal.. | 08:10 |
| barbedsaber | zetroo, probobly, never seen them side by side | 08:10 |
| gsuveg | zetheroo, parton? | 08:10 |
| barbedsaber | hang on a second | 08:10 |
| zetheroo | gsuveg: huh? | 08:10 |
| peter120980 | from the message i got yes, but i just get a blank screen | 08:11 |
| barbedsaber | soory, all my bookmarks are on my other computer | 08:11 |
| wyclif | hi everyone | 08:11 |
| russ | Dextrex, try reading the man page for bash | 08:11 |
| unknownuser_ | peter: I had a similar problem, give me a sec to see if I can't remember what I did. | 08:11 |
| barbedsaber | yeah type man, and then a command that you have heard of | 08:11 |
| DEXTREX | Okay russ | 08:12 |
| gsuveg | anyone use cream? i need add a filetype to php. its works with simple vim but with cream not :( | 08:12 |
| zetheroo | gsuveg: whats parton? | 08:12 |
| nikwad | Hi! | 08:12 |
| gsuveg | zetheroo, nevermind. | 08:12 |
| sauvin | What minimum recommended RAM for Feisty? | 08:12 |
| nikwad | I wonder which codec pack you think is the best for Ubuntu 7.10 | 08:12 |
| russ | Dextrex, also there is a very nicely formatted manual under Ubundu help -> advanced topics | 08:12 |
| sauvin | I have a friend whose 256MiB machine won't boot the Feisty LiveCD. | 08:12 |
| zetheroo | sauvin: I have used Feisty on a machine with 256 MB of RAM and it was a bit sluggish | 08:13 |
| barbedsaber | live cd asks for 300 somthing, but that is for gutsy, how much u got? | 08:13 |
| unknownuser_ | peter: what nvidia card are you using | 08:13 |
| zetheroo | sauvin: I think you should have at least 512 for it to really work well | 08:13 |
| nemilar | don't use the livecd with less than 512, it'll be painful | 08:13 |
| barbedsaber | maybe try xubuntu | 08:13 |
| peter120980 | 8600 gt x 2 in sli | 08:13 |
| nemilar | just do a commandline minimal install or something | 08:13 |
| nemilar | xubuntu for low-end machines works awesome | 08:13 |
| barbedsaber | alternate install? | 08:13 |
| sauvin | This is the machine that loads the kernel (apparently) and then freezes: http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=220194295712&ssPageName=ADME:X:AAQ:AU:1123 | 08:14 |
| zetheroo | sauvin: but in regards to your friends machine not booting into the liveCD session... that could be becasue of numerous things.... | 08:14 |
| nemilar | is that what they call it? | 08:14 |
| barbedsaber | s that what they call it? i think so | 08:14 |
| nemilar | sauvin: ok... | 08:14 |
| nemilar | the cli install is pretty easy | 08:14 |
| peter120980 | ive done "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade" and "sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-new" plus various other things | 08:15 |
| nemilar | blue boxes and stuff, it's fun | 08:15 |
| zetheroo | sauvin: well that machine is not too horrible.... and it should boot into the livesession | 08:15 |
| unknownuser_ | peter: you have 2 cards installed ? | 08:15 |
| peter120980 | yes | 08:15 |
| nemilar | sauvin: a little low on RAM, and the processor is a celeron, but that machine can run ubuntu def. | 08:15 |
| zetheroo | sauvin: you should check that your motherboard is compatible with linux | 08:15 |
| nemilar | double the ram, though | 08:16 |
| barbedsaber | Peter, i assume you have done system, admin, restricted driver maneger. | 08:16 |
| sauvin | I have no means of doing so; the machine is in Australia and I'm in Illinois. | 08:16 |
| zetheroo | sauvin: I have found that there are a number of Desktop motherboards which do not work with linux | 08:16 |
| zetheroo | sauvin: I am in Australia as well | 08:16 |
| peter120980 | barbedsaber: maybe, how do i go about doing that? | 08:16 |
| zetheroo | sauvin: maybe I can help your friend..... where is he? | 08:17 |
| nemilar | sauvin: dell uses various boards, whatever the cheapest thing they can get is | 08:17 |
| nemilar | sauvin: but I imagine it should be fine | 08:17 |
| unop__ | !minimal | 08:17 |
| ubotu | The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 08:17 |
| sauvin | zetheroo, in ##linux-coders | 08:17 |
| barbedsaber | i have a celeron procesr, and it works fine | 08:17 |
| barbedsaber | click system, (up the top) then administration, then restricted drivers maneger | 08:17 |
| zetheroo | nemilar: well if the loading of the kernel is freezing then there could also be a problem with the CD.... no? | 08:18 |
| unknownuser_ | peter: can you take a look at this, it might be similar to your problem http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-515260.html | 08:18 |
| zetheroo | sauvin: well if the loading of the kernel is freezing then there could also be a problem with the CD.... no? | 08:18 |
| nemilar | zetheroo: yes, that, or the RAM | 08:18 |
| sauvin | Yes, there could. | 08:18 |
| peter120980 | barbedsaber: i cant get into xserver, all i have is the command prompt | 08:18 |
| zetheroo | nemilar: true the RAM could be buggered all together | 08:18 |
| nemilar | Do a CD check, then a memtest | 08:18 |
| unop__ | zetheroo, or the CPU even | 08:18 |
| zetheroo | unop__: haha... or the Power Supply | 08:19 |
| nemilar | a) cd check; b) memtest c) try booting some other livecd | 08:19 |
| unop__ | zetheroo, well, if the PSU isnt powering things right, sure why not? | 08:19 |
| peter120980 | thats my problem, i just get a blank screen where i assume the login GUi should be showing | 08:19 |
| unop__ | peter120980, its likely that xorg doesnt support your display adapter out-of-the-box | 08:20 |
| zetheroo | sauvin: nemilar: I concure with that a-b-c approach... and testing another live cd ... even another distro is a good test | 08:20 |
| nemilar | should help to narrow things down | 08:20 |
| sauvin | I think he had problems with a debian livecd, too. :\ | 08:20 |
| nemilar | yeah but that doesn't say much | 08:20 |
| nemilar | try a fedora liveCD or a centOS liveCD | 08:20 |
| sauvin | Oh, that WAS a bad CD. My bad. | 08:20 |
| nemilar | or even better, a gparted LiveCD | 08:20 |
| zetheroo | sauvin: bad CD? | 08:21 |
| sauvin | zetheroo, the Debian CD was bad. | 08:21 |
| zetheroo | sauvin: no worries.. has happened to me several times | 08:21 |
| bullgard4 | Does the Intel M processor use 16- or 32-bit Littleendian? | 08:21 |
| zetheroo | sauvin: whats his name ? | 08:21 |
| unop__ | bullgard4, i'd say 32 | 08:22 |
| bullgard4 | unop__: hm | 08:22 |
| darkblue_B | why is my disk access light going like crazy, on this brand new gutsy install, when top shows nothing going on?? hdal_addon_stor ocassionally pops up, but seldom | 08:22 |
| astro76 | darkblue_B: if it's brand new it's probably trackerd indexing your files | 08:22 |
| darkblue_B | oh, auto-indexing.. can I turn that off? | 08:23 |
| nemilar | darkblue_B: prolly indexing, yeah | 08:23 |
| nemilar | I haaaaaaate the indexing | 08:23 |
| astro76 | darkblue_B: disable tracker | 08:23 |
| darkblue_B | I killed it on my mac, too | 08:23 |
| darkblue_B | disable tracker? | 08:23 |
| unop__ | indexing can be a good thing, if you like locating things quick | 08:23 |
| darkblue_B | I dont search for things that way | 08:24 |
| peter120980 | unknownuser: yes that seems to be my problem, i did wonder about that as in my xorg it shows my PCI-E as "PCI:2:0:0" or something like that | 08:24 |
| catach | tracker might be really useful some day, but not really now | 08:24 |
| nemilar | on today's drives, find is quick enough, no need for indexing | 08:24 |
| nemilar | unless you need to find a word inside a 4GB file in a 450GB directory structure | 08:24 |
| unknownuser_ | I am glad you found out what is causing it, if that doesn't work please let us know | 08:25 |
| peter120980 | i changed it to 1 and tried that with still no luck | 08:25 |
| darkblue_B | nemilar: exactly | 08:25 |
| unop__ | nemilar, errm no, find can never beat locate -- there's a reason why updatedb was written | 08:25 |
| nemilar | darkblue_B: sudo apt-get remove tracker | 08:25 |
| nemilar | unop__: but locate also indexes | 08:25 |
| unop__ | nemilar, exactly | 08:25 |
| nemilar | well I don't like ANY indexing. | 08:25 |
| nemilar | I'm opposed to it. On principle. | 08:26 |
| astro76 | darkblue_B: yes in system > preferences > sessions, startup programs tab | 08:26 |
| nemilar | (Which is just a way of saying, I'm stubborn) | 08:26 |
| catach | (heh) | 08:26 |
| peter120980 | it didnt solve my problem, i set the value from 1 - 7 and still no luck | 08:26 |
| unknownuser_ | peter: did you complety restart after you changed it ? | 08:27 |
| peter120980 | yes | 08:27 |
| musikgoat | any recommendations on a basic graphical log viewer that I can run on my server to get quick information? | 08:27 |
| darkblue_B | astro76: thx I just dd that | 08:28 |
| unop__ | musikgoat, gnome-system-log i think | 08:28 |
| darkblue_B | astro76: I mean, you pointed it out.. I ddnt know abou that | 08:28 |
| darkblue_B | astro76: thx | 08:28 |
| musikgoat | its headless, so command line, or web based would work | 08:28 |
| peter120980 | i wish i knew more about it, my first thoughts was that it was maybe using the wrong card or output, im using the vga output not the dvi | 08:29 |
| musikgoat | sorry, i guess graphical is misleading | 08:29 |
| unknownuser_ | peter: that might actually be it, from what I understand it defaults to dvi | 08:29 |
| unknownuser_ | peter: do you have a dvi device you can test it with? | 08:30 |
| Ububegin | hei guys, anyone can suggest a great bashrc file | 08:30 |
| peter120980 | no | 08:30 |

| ray_ | i recently reloaded compiz on my 7.10 release, and using the appearance preference i go to custom. Then i get an error that reads as follows, The Composite extension is not available, what is the cause of this? | 08:49 |

| alanbshepard70 | is it possible with ubuntu to share a wireless internet connection over ethernet to another computer? I have an ethernet crossover cable, 2 computers running linux powered on and a wireless internet connection. | 08:50 |
| RasterBurner | yes, its possible alan | 08:50 |
| unknownerror_int | youcan get wow on linux pretty easily | 08:50 |
| alanbshepard70 | RasterBurner: would you happen to know how? I've been googling and searching the ubuntu forums for hours. | 08:50 |
| alanbshepard70 | Some articles seemed promising but in the end they required two nics and not one nic and one wireless adapter. I should also mention it's a USB wireless adapter not a pci one. | 08:51 |
| peter120980 | well i dont play wow but i play ffxi which is pretty much the same thing, i guess when i get ubuntu running properly thats my next project, i would love to do away with windows altogether | 08:52 |

| bluefoxx | if i have another, older computer going on a live boot disk, can i connect it to this one via a xover lan cable?[i have two lan ports on this comp], also, do serial mice/devices work in linux or was support for them phased out/broken cause the serial mouse i have on the other comp wont work on any live boot cd i have tried so far and it wont work on this one[i treid an adaptor] | 09:10 |
| xtyn | does anyone know why ubuntu won't shut down my laptop properly while some other distros do? | 09:11 |
| xtyn | as far as i know, they have the same vesion of acpi | 09:12 |
| Ziroday | bluefoxx: that must be some hell of a old computer, about the serial mice and keyboards not sure. The other question have you look at !install | 09:12 |
| foo-nix | I would like to configure my sound. I have two soundcards, actually one card and one on board 'chip'. The onboard is not working, probably some problem with the jacks. I would like touse the card, which is possible. I managed to get sound out of them, although before getting there I have went through a proccess of trail and error. | 09:13 |
| Ziroday | xtyn: every distro does power management differently, I recommend you report a bug | 09:13 |
| xtyn | a... | 09:13 |
| foo-nix | Things I have done is 'asoundconf set-default-card 0' and 'asoundconf set-default-card 1'. | 09:13 |
| xtyn | well, i know my laptop is not supported | 09:13 |
| Ziroday | xtyn: what do you mean by your laptop is not supported, what laptop model is it? | 09:14 |
| xtyn | lg | 09:14 |
| foo-nix | and I have tried the gnome-sound-..., some program in my System>Administration>Sound launcher | 09:14 |
| Ziroday | xtyn: well still report a bug anyway | 09:14 |
| foo-nix | Which was able to play all the ytest sounds, although my amarok is not able to play any sound. | 09:14 |
| bluefoxx | Ziroday, not that old actually, the mobo is 00/01 ish, its an asus tusi -m running a socket 370 celeron 1000mhz, i used a serial mouse cause its the only extra mouse i could find laying around, the other is a wacom tablet with no pen and my main needs the cordless, i move around alot[even though its an desktop] | 09:15 |
| foo-nix | In amarok I can choose between alsa and oss as sound device front end. alsa seems to work , but no sound is comming from my speacker, so It probably uses my onboard. | 09:15 |
| Ziroday | bluefoxx: might recommend DSL or Puppy linux to you, both are meant to run on older machines | 09:16 |
| foo-nix | When I choose os it borks that xine was unable to initialise any soudn drivers. | 09:17 |
| xtyn | lg is not supported | 09:17 |
| xtyn | i looked at the list | 09:17 |
| xtyn | i had a lot of problems with my hardware and linux | 09:17 |
| bluefoxx | Ziroday, i tried puppy but my disk was scratched, then again i was o/c ing the cpu and it was de-stabelized atm, but my burner got toasted earlier this month[wow, its still january!!] | 09:18 |
| foo-nix | Would someone have any idea where to check settings | 09:18 |
| bluefoxx | well, ill solve it on the weekend i wave school tomorrow[2:00am allready??lol] | 09:20 |

| brylie | Tapioca has webcam. | 09:23 |
| russ | broken___ I believe skype is available as a native linux application so no need for wine | 09:23 |
| brylie | It's crazy hard to compile and meet the dependencies though. | 09:23 |
| astro76 | broken___: the latest linux native client has video, version 4 beta | 09:23 |

| Gpalco | Hi! The longer I have Firefox started it GROWS and GROWS in memory size! Till it gets all of it and computer hangs up! Is there a way to fix it ???? PLS! | 09:35 |
| Plantain | Gpalco: What version of FireFox? What version of Ubuntu? | 09:36 |

| nocturn | Hi all | 09:37 |
| Gpalco | Plantain, aha | 09:37 |
| nocturn | Can I get the fedora directory server console on Ubuntu? | 09:37 |
| nocturn | I can alien the rpms, but that gives me the server, webapps and all too | 09:37 |
| Gpalco | Plantain, I heard it keeps 8 preveously opened pages in mamory. Can it be changed ??? | 09:38 |
| Plantain | That's not quite true, but it does cache a lot | 09:38 |
| Plantain | just remember, unused memory is wasted memory | 09:38 |
| Plantain | So unless you're running at 100% full, you're not getting your money's worth | 09:38 |
| Gpalco | Plantain, =) | 09:38 |
| codyduncan | does anyone know how I can check to make sure ndiswrapper has been removed from my machine? | 09:39 |
| Gpalco | Plantain, but it would be good if Firefox emtied it once it gets critically huge | 09:39 |
| erUSUL | foo-nix: apples to oranges alsa are the kernel drivers gstreamer ias a multimedia framwork. Gstreamer can use alsa or osss or a sound server to play sound | 09:39 |
| codyduncan | though, it should be made clear, I am only removing it because I think I put on the wrong version, so I need to install the 64 bit version | 09:39 |

| broken___ | usr13, how does linux in general take to overclocking? | 09:44 |
| usr13_ | broken___: Llinux doesn't care about overclocking. | 09:45 |
| broken___ | Very well. | 09:45 |
| Madpilot | broken___, did you run an md5sum check on the ISO you downloading? Borked installer usually means either bad download or bad burn | 09:46 |
| usr13_ | broken___: Just fine, in other words, but if you are overclocked, you might back down a bit for the install. | 09:46 |
| broken___ | Yea I usually install OS' with stock options. | 09:46 |
| Madpilot | this box is overclocked - 1.8GHz up to ~2.0Ghz. Never any issues. | 09:46 |
| usr13_ | broken___: If you overclock a processor, you may have unstable performance at times. | 09:46 |
| broken___ | hmm.. | 09:47 |
| broken___ | Mine is oc'd from 1.8 to 3.0 lol | 09:47 |
| broken___ | I never had any issues after running multiple stress tests.. | 09:47 |
| broken___ | But i'll keep it 1:1 ratio from now on. | 09:47 |
| usr13_ | broken___: Good. That's what I'd do | 09:48 |

| phuzion | usr13, yeah, GUI preferably | 10:12 |

| alch3mist | <bastones> : the required mem is 256 for the live cd if you want to install right-away and fast you should have download an alternate cd... | 10:17 |
| barbedsaber | external optical drive :) | 10:17 |
| joedj | barbedsaber: those are disabled in the BIOS =P | 10:17 |
| family | aww forget it ill just download everything with qt infront of the package name | 10:17 |
| usr13_ | broken___: If it were a problem with xorg configuration, it would leave you with console mode only and tell you "no screens were found" or something to that effect. | 10:18 |
| barbedsaber | go into your bios settings, and change boot order | 10:18 |

| LiraNuna | Leo1989, yes | 11:04 |

| Twim4 | oke, thanks goodhabit...understood | 11:39 |
| goodhabit | Twim4, I think you can also re-install it, and look installing process. | 11:40 |
| goodhabit | Many software shows where they are putting files during installing. | 11:40 |
| Twim4 | it takes me too much.... | 11:40 |

| goodhabit | Btw, why are you changed? | 11:41 |
| goodhabit | Twim4, I'm afraid yes. I want to warn you do _not_ installing packages from source by "make install" method at all, because it is not deletable and can make some damage your system. | 11:43 |

| Twim4 | goodhabit, is that oke when i do this "sudo rm /usr/local/bin/wine*" ? | 12:07 |
| xen_ | weird i already got it installed, yet ./configure still throws out this "checking for X... configure: error: Can't find X includes. Please check your installation and add the correct paths!" | 12:07 |
| bastones | zombie_money: I am not really sure what to do to get the drivers off microsoft's website... I have tried searching round... could you tell me briefly where I'd find the driver I need? | 12:08 |
| goodhabit | Twim4, depends of you situation :) Use the pastebin for installing output. | 12:08 |
| goodhabit | xen_, are you making *.deb file? | 12:08 |

| drowner_ | g'day everyone | 12:09 |
| drowner_ | I did something stupid (well, I don't think its that stupid, but I need reassurance that it isn't) | 12:09 |
| ray_ | i recently reloaded compiz on my 7.10 release, and using the appearance preference i go to custom. Then i get an error that reads as follows, The Composite extension is not available, what is the cause of this? | 12:09 |
| mcisbackuk | !ask | drowner | 12:10 |
| ubotu | drowner: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-) | 12:10 |
| drowner_ | ok ok | 12:10 |
| drowner_ | so, my friend has a trojan in her msn, so i downloaded it with pidgin, to find out a bit more about it | 12:10 |
| drowner_ | i figure i'll be OK | 12:10 |
| drowner_ | :D | 12:10 |
| kaboombob | i think i just deleted /home/robert can i undo that? im the only user on the comp and i mounted something to there | 12:10 |
| drowner_ | won't it? | 12:10 |
| goodhabit | Kate_mins, it means while running some command it will be runned with some locale what you are writing. Means - If you are french, the $ gimp starts french localised gimp. And $LANG= gimp or $LANG=C gimp will start default english one. | 12:10 |
| travisat | kaboombob: just umount what you mounted | 12:10 |
| mcisbackuk | drowner: Windows virii/trojans etc are harmless to a linux system | 12:10 |
| zombie_monkey | bastones: you need to know the model of your wireless card... let me see... | 12:11 |
| kaboombob | drowner_ should be fine | 12:11 |
| drowner_ | Yeah, i thought so | 12:11 |
| drowner_ | its a zip file | 12:11 |
| kaboombob | travisat i did that but now the folder is empty | 12:11 |

| kaboombob | im affraid to | 12:12 |
| goodhabit | kaboombob, hey :) | 12:12 |
| bastones | zombie_monkey: the model number is: F5D7050 and it is a wireless G USB adapter | 12:12 |
| kaboombob | my desktop icons even dissappeared | 12:12 |
| n00bie | are anyone else experiencing memory leakage in gnome-appearance-properties? | 12:12 |
| Nom_ | Howdy.. I've been googling this problem for the last few minutes, but can't seem to find a solution... I've uninstalled cups and installed the "classic" lpr stuff, and for some reason lcp status says "waiting for ubuntu to come up". I've seen a similar error in cups, but since I've gotten rid of that, the solutions didn't seem to apply (install cupsys-bsd). Does anyone know how to fix this? | 12:12 |
| goodhabit | kaboombob, why are you doing that? :) Try to add new user now. | 12:12 |
| kaboombob | goodhabit yes? | 12:12 |
| travisat | kaboombob: rebooting won't make you lose anything you already lost, I think you just have a file-system mishap | 12:12 |
| kaboombob | travisat will i still be able to log in? | 12:12 |
| unop_ | bastones, you probably need the rt73/rt73usb module for that adapter | 12:13 |
| travisat | kaboombob: yes | 12:13 |
| kaboombob | here goes nothing i guess then | 12:13 |
| travisat | kaboombob: you just loose all info in your /home directory | 12:13 |
| goodhabit | kaboombob, I warn you to create new user now. | 12:13 |
| bastones | unop_: thanks for your response. Where would I find this rt73/rt73usb module? | 12:13 |
| kaboombob | goodhabit how do i do that? | 12:13 |
| goodhabit | kaboombob, because you may have troubles with gnome. system - administraton - users and groups. | 12:14 |
| travisat | goodhabit: why? | 12:14 |
| kaboombob | goodhabit not why but how? | 12:14 |
| goodhabit | travisat, because of config files @ $HOME dir. | 12:14 |
| unop_ | bastones, http://www.ralinktech.com/ralink/Home/Support/Linux.html | 12:14 |
| goodhabit | kaboombob, systerm - administration - users and groups as I told :) | 12:15 |
| zombie_monkey | bastones: look for files rt73.inf, rt73.sys, and rt73.cat in the CD that ame with it | 12:15 |
| toresn | hmm | 12:15 |
| unop_ | zombie_monkey, you dont need ndiswrapper for this adapter, it has a native kernel module | 12:15 |
| ArthurArchnix | Here's a strange problem. I've got a setup such that when a USB mouse is plugged in the touchpad turns off. Except, that if I boot with it plugged in it doesn't turn off. This is new behaviour. Two weeks ago if I booted with a mouse plugged in the touchpad was turned off. Any ideas? | 12:16 |
| zombie_monkey | unop_: I presumed he tried that | 12:16 |
| bastones | unop_: so what do I do? apologies but I am incredibily new to this | 12:16 |
| goodhabit | Good luck all! g2g. Bless you guys ]:) | 12:17 |
| xen_ | no wait! i still have questions! | 12:17 |
| unop_ | bastones, you need to download http://www.ralinktech.com.tw/data/drivers/2008_0117_RT73_Linux_STA_Drv1.1.0.0.tar.bz2 -- and follow the instructions in the INSTALL/README file | 12:17 |
| ArthurArchnix | xen_: So ask them. | 12:17 |
| xen_ | ArthurArchnix i have. | 12:17 |
| bastones | unop_: ok | 12:17 |
| xen_ | scroll up | 12:18 |
| xmpp | hi, my ubuntu doesn't power off completely, there is the shutdown logo and animation and then it hangs with a cursor on top left and nothing can be typed, what could be broken/corrupted ? | 12:18 |
| ArthurArchnix | xen_: I just joined. I can't scroll up to your problem. | 12:18 |
| bastones | unop_: should I download that from my Ubuntu laptop under wired connection or download it on my XP computer? | 12:18 |
| mcisbackuk | xen_: Please retype your question/problem. | 12:18 |
| xen_ | well everytime i try ./configure something, i get "checking for X... configure: error: Can't find X includes. Please check your installation and add the correct paths!" | 12:18 |
| xen_ | however, as goodhabit said before i needed libx11-dev, but i already have that installed | 12:19 |
| unop_ | bastones, i presume you have already installed ubuntu -- if thats the case, you download it to ubuntu and proceed to install it there, it does not work within windows | 12:19 |
| xen_ | i get this error with just about anything im trying to configure | 12:19 |
| bastones | unop_: ok great | 12:19 |
| xen_ | using Kubuntu 7.10 btw | 12:19 |
| mcisbackuk | xen_: It could be the configure script expects a different linux distro to Ubuntu, so it may look in a different location to /etc/X11 | 12:19 |
| ArthurArchnix | xen_: More please. What do you mean, everytime you try to ./configure something. What exactly are you building from source, why, and what instructions are you following? | 12:19 |
| xen_ | well, im just trying to install a network monitor from kde-apps, but ive tried ./configuring other apps like kwin-style-crystal etc, and i get that same error | 12:20 |
| xen_ | from source | 12:20 |
| ikonia | xen_: what are you trying to build and what error | 12:21 |
| mcisbackuk | xen_: Are these packages not in Adept?? | 12:21 |
| xen_ | yes these pakcages are in adept, but outdated | 12:21 |
| chetan | /msg nickserv REGISTER chetan | 12:21 |
| xen_ | for kwn-style-crystal anywhow | 12:21 |
| mcisbackuk | xen_: Have you filed a bug against them to get them updated for Hardy to the new upstream release? | 12:21 |
| xen_ | @ikonia its when i try ./configure source files i get "checking for X... configure: error: Can't find X includes. Please check your installation and add the correct paths!" | 12:21 |
| xen_ | mcisbackuk well how do we know this is a bug already? | 12:22 |
| xen_ | it might just be im missing something | 12:22 |
| chetan | /msg nickserv IDENTIFY chetan | 12:22 |
| ikonia | xen_: have you got the libs/headers installed, what is filing pkg_config ? | 12:22 |
| ArthurArchnix | xen_: Could be that you're missing some dev files. Try this, if it doesn't work, just uninstall by repeating the command with remove instead of install. | 12:22 |
| mcisbackuk | xen_: As I said, it's probably the configure script, have a look see what the X11 directory is pointing to it should be /etc/X11 | 12:22 |
| ArthurArchnix | sudo apt-get install x-window-system-dev | 12:22 |
| xen_ | sorry ikonia, im dont know much about this, but ive tried installing libx11-dev, but adept says its already installed | 12:22 |
| ikonia | mcisbackuk: why would it be looking for libs / headers in /etc/X11 | 12:22 |
| huhmz | hello. Can i see which packages in a repo has another package as its dependency? | 12:23 |
| ikonia | xen_ can you put the output of configure into a pastebin pleas.e | 12:23 |
| unop__ | mcisbackuk, i think you mean /usr/lib/x* ... ? | 12:23 |
| xen_ | ok | 12:23 |
| xen_ | !paste | 12:23 |
| 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) | 12:23 |
| mcisbackuk | unop_: Thats the one lol | 12:23 |
| ArthurArchnix | xen_: If the above command doesn't work please follow ikonia's instructions. | 12:23 |
| ikonia | ArthurArchnix: I suspect its pkgconfig complaining, but we'll see | 12:23 |
| xen_ | iKonia : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/53950/ | 12:24 |
| ArthurArchnix | ikonia: I don't know much about insalling from source... I'm just going by what solutions seem to have worked for people with similar problems in the forums... eg., see here: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-75143.html | 12:24 |
| xen_ | and this is the output when i try ./configure kwin-style-crystal, uno momento just gota paste it | 12:24 |
| bullgard4 | !wxWidgets | 12:24 |
| mcisbackuk | Gusy this is a stupid question, but has anyone else noticed that Gutsy's install Cd still has 7.04's example files on the disk? and so has Hardy? | 12:24 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about wxwidgets - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 12:24 |
| kaboombob | can somebody tell me what i was supposed to mount before i logged out? | 12:24 |
| travisat | kaboombob: don't mount anything | 12:25 |
| unop__ | xen_, is x-dev installed? | 12:25 |
| travisat | kaboombob: adn don't just logout reboot | 12:25 |
| xen_ | unop_ yes | 12:25 |
| kaboombob | travisat i did reboot | 12:25 |
| ArthurArchnix | xen_: What about x-window-system-dev? | 12:25 |
| mcisbackuk | join #ubuntu-motu | 12:26 |
| mcisbackuk | oops | 12:26 |
| xen_ | ill just check that | 12:26 |
| kaboombob | travisat can you tell me what the mount command i was given earlier was? cause it worked i just mounted in the wrong place | 12:26 |
| unop__ | xen_, i think you should do this -- sudo apt-get install --reinstall x-dev libx11-dev kdebase-dev | 12:26 |
| ArthurArchnix | xen_: Others have reported in forums that that package solved their problem | 12:26 |
| ikonia | that doesn't look like a pkgconfig complaint, that looks like -I/include/path is not populated | 12:26 |
| dellph | hello ppl | 12:27 |
| xen_ | brb 2 secs just installing these | 12:27 |
| kaboombob | travisat it should have the text "/dev/???" in it | 12:28 |
| travisat | kaboombob: oh I dunno | 12:28 |
| ArthurArchnix | ikonia: Everything I can find about your problem suggests a missing dev package. Another post, here http://curves79lady.wordpress.com/2008/01/22/configure-error-cant-find-x-includes/ | 12:28 |
| xen_ | E: Couldn't find package x-window-system-dev | 12:28 |
| dellph | i have a problem with permission. when i try to run this command sudo auth-client-config. i get an permission error: ERROR: uid is 0 but '/' is owned by 1000. any tips to guru. | 12:28 |
| dellph | . | 12:28 |
| dellph | ? | 12:28 |
| unop__ | xen_, that's a non-existant package | 12:28 |
| xen_ | @unop_ just dl the sudo apt-get install --reinstall x-dev libx11-dev kdebase-dev, have to install 80mb's of stuff | 12:29 |
| bastones | unop_: I have downloaded the thing and I am confused and do not know a clue of what to do... I read readme in both folders and I don't know a thing to do | 12:29 |
| travisat | sudo mount -t vfat /dev/??? /whatever/where/you/are/mounting | 12:29 |
| FFighter | does anyone know of a Terminal Server client for linux ? | 12:29 |
| unop__ | xen_, wow - errm, ok take kdebase-dev out - sudo apt-get install --reinstall x-dev libx11-dev | 12:29 |
| travisat | kaboombob: you get that? | 12:29 |
| naresh | hello | 12:29 |
| kaboombob | travisat thanks yeah that was it | 12:29 |
| unop__ | xen_, you probably need the kdebase-dev anyway since you are building kde packages | 12:30 |
| travisat | kaboombob: its nice having a long irc history :) | 12:30 |
| unop__ | bastones, there are clear instructions in the README file | 12:30 |
| dellph | FFighter: its can be found in ubuntu application/internet/ | 12:30 |
| Nom_ | ok new problem... trying lprng instead... it thinks the printer is up and running, but nothing is being sent to the printer. echo "test" > /dev/ttyS0 yields data, so it's definately an issue in that config... anyone familiar with this? :/ | 12:30 |
| kaboombob | travisat yeah that why i have mine set for long time so i can go back and copy what i did to fix a problem | 12:30 |
| FFighter | dellph, what's the name of the application? I'm running XUbuntu | 12:31 |
| xen_ | @unop_ hmm just tried the sudo apt-get install --reinstall x-dev libx11-dev, still same error about the x server not found or something | 12:31 |
| ArthurArchnix | unop_ The latest post I found about that problem suggests a missing kde-dev package. | 12:31 |
| dellph | i have a problem with permission. when i try to run this command sudo auth-client-config. i get an permission error: ERROR: uid is 0 but '/' is owned by 1000. can somebody help me? | 12:31 |
| bastones | unop_: there are readme files in both the Module and WPA_supplicant-0.5.8 folder... which readme should I read? | 12:31 |
| unop__ | xen_, i'm quite certain you need the kdebase-dev package | 12:31 |
| Nom_ | There seems to be no error log for lprng either... not that i can find at least | 12:31 |
| xen_ | ah ok, ill try again | 12:31 |
| unop__ | ArthurArchnix, thats what a preliminary google search seems to suggest to me too, yes | 12:32 |
| unop__ | bastones, the module one | 12:32 |
| xen_ | does this mean i have to abort the hyper-flux gyroconcentrator? | 12:32 |
| xen_ | j/k | 12:32 |
| dellph | tsclient | 12:33 |
| xen_ | sorry, im not used to the jargon | 12:33 |
| dellph | FFighter: tsclient | 12:33 |
| ArthurArchnix | xen_: It's flux-capacitor...and it depends on what you're setting up. Programs, yes. Timetravel device, no. | 12:33 |
| xen_ | ahh i c, :P | 12:34 |
| Bcosta | Someone speak portuguese? | 12:34 |
| unop__ | xen_, maybe try this too -- sudo apt-get install xlibs-static-dev | 12:34 |
| unop__ | xen_, did you say it was a kde app? | 12:34 |
| ArthurArchnix | !portuguese | Bcosta | 12:34 |
| xen_ | unop_ will do, got 50secs left for dl | 12:34 |
| ubotu | Bcosta: Por favor use #ubuntu-br ou #ubuntu-pt para ajuda em português. Obrigado. | 12:34 |
| xen_ | unop_ well knetstats, but ive noticed this same error when i tried to install kwn-style-cyrstal as well | 12:35 |
| Bcosta | very very very thanks | 12:35 |
| SleepingSloth | xen_, nice jargon though - i like 'gyroconcentrator' | 12:35 |
| ArthurArchnix | de nada | 12:35 |
| xen_ | lol, ya that was kinda off the top of my head lol | 12:35 |
| SleepingSloth | xen_, the best ones always are ;) | 12:36 |
| bastones | unop_: I don't understand anything in that readme file, I am completely clueless on what to do next. I don't know what section is important for me to read, and all sections just say weird code like $tar -xvzf RT73 etc and I dont understand a word of it :S | 12:36 |
| Dr_willis | bastones, this is when spending an hour or 2 reading some Bash/shell tutorials pays big time. | 12:37 |

| xen_ | success! tyvm all! it worked :) | 12:38 |
| bastones | ... | 12:38 |
| unop__ | bastones, maybe this then - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=400236 | 12:38 |
| unop__ | xen_, so it was kdebase-dev ? | 12:38 |
| * Dr_willis is big on people learning linux 'FUNdaMentalss' | 12:38 | |
| xen_ | yes, kdebase-dev | 12:39 |
| unop__ | xen_, cool | 12:39 |
| xen_ | tyvm | 12:39 |
| unop__ | yw | 12:39 |

| ArthurArchnix | I think that would have been rude. | 12:41 |
| Dr_willis | well the ads were cluttering it up. :) | 12:42 |

| ArthurArchnix | So... I'll ask again, for some reason if I boot my computer with a mouse plugged in the touchpad doesn't turn off like it should. But if I plug the mouse in after logging into gnome, then it turns off. I wrote an answer on the forums about disabling the touchpad here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4177125#post4177125 but after reinstalling last week, and updating, it no longer works. It used to. Any ideas | 12:46 |
| BitTorment | can anyone tell me what might be wrong if none of my service daemons are starting on boot (sshd, apache2 etc)? | 12:47 |
| BitTorment | they all start fine manually | 12:47 |
| ArthurArchnix | Back in a sec... I'm gonna change "on" to "true" and see what happens. | 12:48 |

| clusty | tried to install the CUDA drivers for NVIDIA and now i dont have proper X anymore | 12:49 |
| clusty | just the shitty compatibility mode | 12:50 |
| clusty | how can I revert to the ubuntu drivers | 12:50 |
| clusty | ? | 12:50 |
| Dr_willis | edit the xorg.conf and change the Driver 'whatever' line back to Driver 'nvidia' or Driver 'nv' perhaps. | 12:51 |
| Dr_willis | There MIGHT be a backed up xorg.conf in /etc/X11 also | 12:51 |
| ArthurArchnix | hmm... ok. No difference. Did anyone read my link. Any ideas? | 12:51 |
| don_andrez | is vmi enabled in generic kernel in 7.10? | 12:52 |
| ArthurArchnix | All I can think is that... since the mouse is detected at boot then gnome doesn't consider it "plugged in", unless it happens after gnome is loaded. I wish I could confirm that this worked before. I'm sure it did, but since I've reinstalled how can I confirm. It's easy enough to setup a shortcut key to turn it off I suppose, or to pull out the mouse and push it back in (which turns off touchpad), or setup a script that's run | 12:54 |
| ArthurArchnix | don_andrez: Is that directed at me? | 12:54 |

| ArthurArchnix | don_andrez: Everthing I find on google says yes. But if you come across the default kernel config options of 7.10 let me know. I'd love to see it. | 13:04 |
| Symmetria | or am I gonna be limited to 100 or 200mbit throguhput | 13:04 |
| Symmetria | nemilar: heh, fine in my definition = 600+mbit | 13:04 |
| nemilar | Symmetria: yeah man, assuming all your hardware is gigE, you'll be runnin' smoooooth | 13:05 |
| don_andrez | ArthurArchnix: The forum only cleared that there is vmi in server kernel | 13:05 |
| Symmetria | trying to decide if I wanna go with an open iscsi implementation or go with nfs | 13:05 |
| idefix_ | is there a specific internat channel? | 13:05 |
| Symmetria | its all gigE, I guess if its really 2 slow I will just throw in 10gig interfaces | 13:06 |
| Symmetria | but thats a pain in the ass to organize | 13:06 |
| nemilar | Symmetria: never used iscsi...but nfs doesn't have too much overhead | 13:06 |
| IndyGunFreak | idefix_: what type of internet access do you have? | 13:06 |
| ArthurArchnix | don_andrez: I agree. It was unclear. I'm running 7.1 now, I wonder if there's a command I could run to see what's enabled in my current desktop kernel, | 13:06 |
| nemilar | Symmetria: what are you aiming to do with this? | 13:06 |

| idefix_ | ok | 13:06 |
| Symmetria | a *LOT* more disk space | 13:07 |
| ArthurArchnix | Is there a command I could run to see what my current kernal options are? | 13:07 |
| IndyGunFreak | idefix_: if you have cable, unless you're paying for buisness class service, or are paying extra for a dedicated IP, you likely have DHCP | 13:07 |
| nemilar | Symmetria: ahh, true....what kind of server? | 13:07 |
| Symmetria | server itself is a quad dualcore xeon with 24gigs of ram | 13:07 |

| Symmetria | the boxes with the disks in them are 3ghz xeons with 2gigs of ram they are intel SSR212MA's | 13:07 |
| Symmetria | no, file server | 13:07 |

| unop_ | zombie_monkey, it's probably not a bug anyway but a side-effect of being alpha :) | 13:20 |
| MasterShrek | Naser_LPI, whats the problem? that guide looks pretty good | 13:20 |
| blackest | the problem is the files locations are stored in a db shared by both (or more systems) hense the need to make both computers look in the same place | 13:21 |
| blackest | it'd be easier if the files were stored on a third system but thats getting silly | 13:21 |
| ArthurArchnix | unop_: And I didn't know enough to ask a good question. But thanks for the try at it. | 13:22 |

| ArthurArchnix | If I restart 'X', as far as gnome is concerned that's identical to a restart? I'm having trouble with gnome detecting and disabling hardware at boot time.

| MasterShrek | clusty, what card is it? | 13:26 |
| spdf | ArthurArchnix, Gnome does not handle devices, check dmesg for anything regarding the hardware in question | 13:26 |
| clusty | 8600 | 13:26 |
| el3ctro_ | ikonia..... client to share files on lan | 13:26 |
| ikonia | el3ctro_ what about it | 13:26 |
| clusty | MasterShrek, 8600 | 13:26 |
| unop_ | ArthurArchnix, some aspects of gnome in relation to hardware might require a restart because ultimately the kernel has to have identified the change | 13:26 |

| broken___ | Someone mentioned earlier that there was a beta version of skype for linux that supported video.. is this true? | 13:28 |
| ArthurArchnix | spdf: unop_ I'm using the feature of gnome that runs a program on detection of a device. So, supposedly, when gnome detects a usb mouse it should run "synclient touchpadoff=1" and disable my mouse. But this only works if I unplug my mouse and replug it in after gnome loads. If it's plugged in when I restart the system it doesn't work. I'm trying to figure out why.... | 13:28 |
| ikonia | broken___: apprantly so | 13:28 |
| nat6138 | broken__: Skype 2 or something, I think. | 13:28 |
| bastones_ | ikonia: I honestly do not know, I have been trying various things for 6 hours now without luck | 13:28 |
| nat6138 | May be wrong. | 13:28 |

| MasterShrek | bastones, is it a belkin fd7050? | 13:29 |
| ikonia | broken___: no idea, I only read about it | 13:29 |

| === bastones_ is now known as bastones | ||

| bod_ | MasterShrek, i have a problem with that belkin adapter aswell | 13:29 |
| nat6138 | Medibuntu has it though. | 13:29 |
| ikonia | MasterShrek: no you get it direct from skypes repo's | 13:29 |
| MasterShrek | oh | 13:29 |
| spdf | ArthurArchnix, Hmm, you may need to add something to your session startup to check for the extra mouse | 13:29 |
| unop__ | ArthurArchnix, i'm not sure how the program works, but by the sounds of it, it only acts when there's a change within the gnome session -- it might be possible to write a script around this | 13:30 |
| el3ctro_ | ikonia no it's there in ubuntu .......it's under the name linuxdcpp it's a client for p2p network direct connect | 13:30 |
| ForsakenSoul | how can i config my grub to run boot from hd0 to hd1 ? | 13:30 |
| RickJames | nat6138, so he needs to sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list and uncomment out everythign with a deb ? | 13:30 |
| broken___ | I know that. | 13:30 |
| ikonia | el3ctro_: yes, thats right, thats a different name from dc++ | 13:30 |
| bastones | ikonia: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=400236 I was following steps in that thread I get to step 3, but then I get error "0 doesn't exist" so I removed "-0" from the command and it worked. I then went to step 4 and it said "Directory doesn't exist" | 13:30 |
| broken___ | Anyways I found the beta, thanks. | 13:30 |
| ikonia | ForsakenSoul grub lives on your disks boot sector, you'd have to configure the bios | 13:30 |
| el3ctro_ | ikonia yaa .... | 13:30 |
| RickJames | anyways, is there a fix to the flasplugin-nonfree md5 checksum error yet ? | 13:30 |
| nat6138 | RickJames: Well, Skype isn't in there do to the "free" thing I believe. You could just download it from their website. | 13:30 |
| bullgard4 | Where are wxWidgets used? | 13:31 |
| ForsakenSoul | ikonia so i have to set up which hard drive to boot first ? | 13:31 |
| RickJames | nat6138, ok. | 13:31 |
| bod_ | bastones, if a directory doesnt exist you can always create it with sudo mkdir | 13:31 |
| kaboombob | what is an app that turns a pic with multiple frames into a gif? | 13:31 |

| ikonia | ForsakenSoul: yes | 13:31 |
| MasterShrek | bod_, i cant exactly remember the module name, and its very possible you need to update your kernel to use this adapter | 13:31 |
| bod_ | kaboombob, Gimp can do it | 13:31 |

| MrMist | IdleOne: MasterShrek: /usr/sbin/dpkg-reconfigure: eieio is broken or not fully installed | 13:34 |
| MasterShrek | MrMist, sudo apt-get purge eieio && sudo apt-get install eieio | 13:34 |
| IdleOne | MrMist, sudo apt-get -reinstall eieio | 13:34 |
| bod_ | MasterShrek, whats the difference between apt-get and aptitude? | 13:34 |
| MasterShrek | aptitude is a menu-based package manager, a front end to apt-get | 13:35 |
| unop__ | ArthurArchnix, yes, what you are doing only affects a gnome-session -- i'm not sure how syncclient works outside of a gnome-session, but if it can, then you might be able to right a script to check if the mouse device exists under /dev and run it accordingly | 13:35 |
| unop__ | bah | 13:35 |
| bod_ | MasterShrek, and what does that mean? | 13:35 |
| === lmr_ is now known as lmr[lunch] | ||
| nat6138 | bod_: aptitude removes packages automaticlly, instead of having to put in another command, and it deletes stuff better. | 13:36 |
| unop__ | MasterShrek, aptitude can emulate apt-get at the command line | 13:36 |
| sluggo | aptitude is not a front end to apt-get, they are dpkg frontends | 13:36 |
| MrMist | MasterShrek: Thanks a LOT. It seems to be working now. A lot of emacs compilation is going on here.. hehe | 13:36 |
| bod_ | nat6138, thanks for the clarification m8 | 13:36 |
| IdleOne | bod_, some say aptitude is better at managing dependencies. I personaly use aptitude all the time. | 13:36 |
| MrMist | MasterShrek: So the purge command removes all earlier references etc. ? | 13:36 |
| unop__ | sluggo, err no, aptitude is an APT from end -- dselect is the dpkg equivalent | 13:36 |
| MasterShrek | MrMist, i believe so, it removes all configs and stuff if i remember correctly | 13:37 |
| davidtang | hello | 13:37 |
| bod_ | IdleOne, welll,. im gonna stick to my buddy apt-get cause its wot everyone uses in how-to's lol,.,.,.;) | 13:37 |
| nat6138 | Haha. | 13:37 |
| sluggo | unop__: yeah, my point was aptitude isn't a frontend to apt-get | 13:37 |
| davidtang | hello sluggo | 13:37 |
| MrMist | MasterShrek: Well, thanks a lot :) Seems this package had a problem during the update process | 13:37 |
| unop__ | bod_, some howtos use aptitude because sometimes you need to use aptitude :) | 13:37 |
| MasterShrek | sluggo, but it is | 13:37 |
| IdleOne | bod_, that is fine. but you can safely use aptitude in place of apt-get wont hurt anything. whatever you prefer | 13:37 |
| MasterShrek | good to hear MrMist | 13:37 |
| unop__ | sluggo, apologies, my bad, i misread | 13:38 |
| nat6138 | I prefer aptitude, cause of metapackages and easy removal. | 13:38 |
| bastones | unop_: its now saying "failed: name or service not known at rt2x00.serialmonkey.com" | 13:38 |
| sluggo | unop__: you were right, I phrased it poorly | 13:38 |
| bod_ | unop_, IdleOne, so if i cane use whichever i choose,. then what does aptitude do better then apt-get and vice versa | 13:38 |
| unop__ | MasterShrek, aptitude is not a front end to apt-get - rather its a front end to apt - quite a difference | 13:38 |
| IdleOne | bod_, there is certanly a howto out there . google might be of help | 13:39 |
| nat6138 | Aptitude is also a thing for the terminal. | 13:39 |
| letynsoft_ | hi, does anybody know where i can find ppd driver for hp laserjet 1020? | 13:39 |

| unop__ | broken___, you probably need to install the 32bit skype in a chroot -- see !chroot | 13:40 |

| ArthurArchnix | Previously I had it working, but now it only works if I plug in the mouse after ubuntu finishes loading. | 13:42 |
| unop__ | ArthurArchnix, yes, what you are doing only affects a gnome-session -- i'm not sure how syncclient works outside of a gnome-session, but if it can, then you might be able to right a startup script to check if the mouse device exists under /dev and run it accordingly | 13:42 |

| broken___ | I was just reading that, thanks :) | 13:42 |
| bod_ | ArthurArchnix, could you possibly get grub to run the script, as part of the boot process? | 13:42 |
| broken___ | I have a habit of finding what I need after asking the question. | 13:43 |
| ccooke | bod_: apt is the name of a suite of libraries and tools for working with package repositories. apt-get is a command line, interface-less implementation of that library. aptitude is a text-interface GUI with command line shortcuts which extends upon apt-get. | 13:43 |

| CercoLamore | how can i install ubuntu on my window vista? | 13:43 |
| unop__ | ArthurArchnix, the problem with how you are setting it up is that it doesnt affect laptops running other Desktop environments, ideally you want to run this client prior to the desktop loading up | 13:43 |
| bod_ | ccooke, so aptitude has more widgits? | 13:43 |
| [LL] | Cerco , install Vista first then ubuntu , which would gives you Grub to duel boot with it | 13:43 |
| ikonia | [LL]: do you have an ubuntu releated question | 13:43 |

| broken___ | SleepingSloth, I've played around with it a bit but .. I am just procrastinating learning it.. | 13:46 |
| ArthurArchnix | unop_ bod_ Yeah. I know that will work... but I'd previously been using this much simpler way through gnome. Suddenly it stopped working. It's not that I can't get it to work... it's that a previously simple, easy and effective solution suddenly doesn't work. And I wonder, did I forget to install something, did an update break it? Or was I just imaging all along that I'd found a solution? Here is what I did before (scroll to | 13:46 |
| broken___ | SleepingSloth, it has come a long way though soon there will be no need for Photoshop :P | 13:46 |

| QuickGold | [LL]: Thanks, I'll try that next time | 13:47 |
| SleepingSloth | broken___, i think the only 'chunk' missing is proper support for 16 bit images - unless you're a photographer etc, it pretty much matches photoshop, you've just got to learn a different workflow. imo, photoshop makes it easier in general | 13:47 |
| bod_ | ArthurArchnix, im just saying theres ways,. i wasnt doubting your script,.,.lol,.,.why are you complicating things? | 13:47 |
| [LL] | QuickGold , But just as an adivice i would suggest telling people whats your GFX card in next time | 13:48 |

| mendred | hi Assid. i am running 64 bit on quad core 6600.. | 14:16 |
| cool-leopard | thanx | 14:16 |
| ikonia | Assid wouldn't really matter unless your using large ammount's of ram | 14:16 |
| mendred | but then i am using 4 GB ram | 14:17 |
| mendred | so if u have 2 GB stick to 32 bit | 14:17 |
| Assid | hrmm.. i got only 2gb.. im actually calling for 2gb more in like 2-3 months | 14:17 |
| bod_ | ikonia, u seem to know quite a bit,. can i test your knowledge with a problem of mine? | 14:17 |
| ikonia | bod_: sure | 14:17 |
| mendred | Assid: what are u using ur comp for? | 14:17 |
| bazhang | heh | 14:17 |
| bod_ | ikonia, mwhahaha ul regret that | 14:17 |
| mendred | Assid: in my case, i am sing it with ubuntustudio | 14:17 |
| mendred | so 64 bit helps | 14:17 |

| mendred | Assid: if u are using windows for gaming,,most probably u will stick to 32 bit | 14:18 |
| mendred | i have installed win xp 64 | 14:18 |
| bod_ | Assid, im yet to find a game i cant play on nix | 14:18 |

| Assid | bod_: crysis , gears of war .. etc | 14:19 |
| |Stevie| | hmm crysis on *nix, i think that doesnt work yet, does it? | 14:19 |
| bod_ | ikonia, ah ur knowledge is wrong,. if you read my post i said (no docs for gutsy) check the pages,.,. no gutsy docs and edgy docs dont work | 14:19 |
| bazhang | offtopic though | 14:19 |
| Assid | as of softwares.. try running corel x13 or x14 and the latest dreamweaver and photoshop | 14:19 |

| bod_ | kazim59, alt+f2 does work | 14:21 |
| mendred | bod_: alright..sorry about that | 14:21 |

| bod_ | Assid, is that the first linux distro uve used? | 14:23 |
| Assid | problem is .. compiz crashes like theres no tomorrow even on the stable gutsy | 14:23 |
| Assid | bod_: hell no.. i run debian servers | 14:23 |
| kazim59 | The real problem is something I don't want to solve. Enough of compiz headache sessions. The window title bars disappear after working for some hours. I cannot find what triggers this. I just do compiz --replace. | 14:23 |

| PeP` | Hello, I am unable to install gutsy i386 on my laptop, the live cd freezes on boot-up, I dist-upgraded and there seems to be a problem with the kernel/ubuntu combination, I don't know... anyway, I used the amd64 version finally... Now I am downloading alpha3 of hardy i386 to see if it does it again.. | 14:24 |
| PeP` | anyone know this problem? | 14:24 |
| bod_ | Assid, unlucky you,.,. hows hardy,.,. major differences to gutsy? | 14:24 |
| unixhag_ | wget is easy actually, it uses .wgetrc and/or environment variables(?) and the man page is complete | 14:24 |
| Assid | not really | 14:24 |
| Assid | brb | 14:24 |
| Assid | 2 mins | 14:24 |
| coz_ | PeP`, how much memory do you have on that lap top sytem memory | 14:25 |
| bod_ | Why is everyone getting hardy then complaining about it ,.,. remember its only in ALPHA | 14:25 |
| PeP` | coz_: ram? 1 giga... | 14:25 |
| coz_ | PeP`, mm ok its not that have you tried downloading the Alternate cd to see if that installs | 14:25 |
| coz_ | PeP`, also if you are going to download hardy I would wait until thrusday .. I believe that is alpha4 release then a nd a soft freeze | 14:26 |
| PeP` | coz_: oh I tried, it started the text install, then froze on either check cd rom step, or another step.. that's what is so weird..... | 14:26 |
| PeP` | oh, I'll download the alpha 3, the alpha4 thursday.. | 14:27 |
| coz_ | PeP` well I think alpha 4 will have fewer bugs | 14:27 |
| PeP` | I translated already fo rubuntu, and I'm member of a loco team, I'll get on with bugtracking with alpha 4 I think :) | 14:27 |
| coz_ | PeP`, cool | 14:28 |
| PeP` | coz_: yes, wel I just want to see if it boots | 14:28 |
| coz_ | PeP`, did you try shutting down the system for a short time and restarting and try to install then | 14:28 |
| PeP` | feisty worked fine on i386, and i didn't have time to search when gutsy came out... so i switched on amd64... | 14:29 |
| bod_ | ikonia, any joy on my usplash? | 14:29 |
| ikonia | bod_: I sent you a link on it | 14:29 |
| PeP` | coz_: yes, I tried everything, it is at either the live-cd boot or during the textmode installation of something.. nobody could help me on IRC at the time about this... | 14:30 |
| bod_ | ikonia, and i told you that page doesnt work | 14:30 |
| PeP` | So I'll search further with hardy now.. | 14:30 |

| bod_ | ikonia, i no the link works,. i mean the info is rubbish,.,. read a few lines,.,. and note that im not RUNNING EDGY,.,. IM RUNNING GUTSY | 14:31 |

| bod_ | redheat, shoot | 14:32 |
| ikonia | bod_: which ones ? | 14:32 |
| redheat | The harddrive where I'm gonna install Ubuntu is about 320 GB in size, and it is the only harddrive I use mainly for Operating systems, for I already have windows XP pro and Windows Vista Business both already installed on two 100 GB Partitions on the same drive, and now I have 150 GB of freespace | 14:33 |
| ikonia | redheat: that seems reasonable | 14:34 |
| redheat | on my harddrive, gonna use only 30 GB of them for Ubuntu and the rest will be | 14:34 |
| redheat | used as a partition for backups and games | 14:34 |
| ikonia | redheat: ok, again sensible | 14:34 |
| redheat | I heard that usually we can have four primary pertitions, and only one extended partition | 14:34 |
| redheat | ok | 14:35 |
| * bod_ waits patiently for the problem | 14:35 | |
| redheat | I need to create within the games and backup partition a number of logical partitions, but I think I won't be able to do that since already the moment I let ubuntu install on the free space it will create an extended partition automatically | 14:36 |
| bod_ | ikonia, lol,.,. the readme,.,. :/usr/share/doc/usplash-dev/examples/README. | 14:36 |
| === crolle__ is now known as crolle17 | ||
| * bod_ quickly runs away from problem -- spying from a distance he hopes ikonia can educate him and redheat | 14:36 | |

| NET||abuse | Hey guys.. i've a web and mail server here, about 90 low traffic sites on it,, prolly between 2 and 20 mailboxes per site,, and it has huge lag, i've tried doing things like emptying mailboxes, restarting services and the whole machine,, but it inevitably locks up after a while.. becoming near crippled.. | 14:37 |
| ikonia | bod_: have ou installed the usplash-dev package ? | 14:37 |
| NET||abuse | on the top command i have the 2 cpu cores with low usage low idle and huge (80%-90%) wait times | 14:37 |
| ikonia | redheat: apologies, I mssed the last line of your questions | 14:37 |
| redheat | ikonia, you got what I trying to do | 14:37 |
| ikonia | redheat: I got you have a backup partition for music/games etc | 14:37 |
| NET||abuse | is there a way to determine what is causing the wait times? | 14:37 |
| redheat | well..I myself about to lose it too :) | 14:37 |
| redheat | exactly, the question is | 14:38 |
| bod_ | NET||abuse, these guys could be usefull :#ubuntu-server | 14:38 |
| redheat | I want to partition that into small logical partitions, and I won be able to do that unless I convert into extend partition | 14:38 |
| bod_ | ikonia, sudo apt-get install usplash-dev? | 14:38 |
| ikonia | redheat: create one extended partition and put all your others in that | 14:38 |
| ikonia | bod_: I think thats the package name | 14:38 |
| redheat | but we already now, and by the way I let Ubuntu do the partitioning for me..that is I leave empty | 14:38 |
| m0u5e | sudo apt-get me sandwich | 14:39 |
| ikonia | !info usplash-dev | 14:39 |
| ubotu | Package usplash-dev does not exist in gutsy | 14:39 |
| bod_ | ikonia, ok il try | 14:39 |
| ikonia | !info usplash | 14:39 |
| ubotu | usplash (source: usplash): Userspace bootsplash utility. In component main, is optional. Version 0.5.7 (gutsy), package size 24 kB, installed size 152 kB | 14:39 |
| ikonia | bod_: it's just usplash | 14:39 |
| bod_ | ikonia, sudo apt-get install usplash? | 14:39 |
| bazhang | funny m0u5e but offtopic | 14:39 |
| ikonia | bod_: thats it | 14:39 |
| bod_ | ikonia, but usplash works fine? | 14:39 |
| redheat | space and then I direct Ubuntu to use that free space, and it automatically creates an extended partition, which makes it impoisslbe for me to create an extended partition | 14:39 |
| ikonia | bod_: what do you mean usplash works fine ? | 14:39 |
| sluggo | bod_: maybe libusplash-dev | 14:40 |
| bod_ | ikonia, i mean i cant find a tutorial on how to make custom usplash's in gutsy | 14:40 |
| ikonia | sluggo: thank you, I've not got a box to -cache search on at th emoment | 14:40 |
| ikonia | bod_: you use the edgy instructions, it's the same process | 14:40 |
| ikonia | redheat: let ubuntu create the extened partition then | 14:40 |
| redheat | again to illiustrate more..I have 100 GB primary partition for windows xp, and another 100 for windows vista business, and then I have 150 of free space..I want to install Ubuntu on 30 or 40 of them and then have the leftover | 14:40 |
| unixhag_ | So you can install all of Ubuntu in a primary partition, and the separate Swap "partition" doesn't count when you're counting partitions? Does it really create an extended partition when you tell it to put everything into primary partition "/" ? | 14:41 |
| ikonia | redheat: just created an exnteded partition of 150 then slice it up with locicals | 14:41 |
| redheat | ok I will do that, but Ubuntu will create an extended partition, and I won't be able to create another one on my own | 14:41 |
| bod_ | ikonia, i cant because in the opening paragraph it talks about this dir :/usr/share/doc/usplash-dev/examples/README. which does not exist | 14:41 |
| redheat | ok | 14:41 |
| ikonia | bod_: you get that by installing the usplash packages | 14:41 |
| redheat | it will be look like having two extended partitions.. | 14:41 |
| ikonia | redheat: no it won't | 14:42 |
| unixhag_ | the linux partitions concept and habits are different from what I'm used to | 14:42 |
| bkar | redheat-> dont let ubuntu choose to use the remaining free space, you manually pick and choose | 14:42 |
| redheat | can you tell me whY? | 14:42 |
| bod_ | ikonia, so i need to install stuff to get that dir,.,. thats not entioned in the how-to,. but il do it anyway,.ty | 14:42 |
| redheat | I was thining of doing this.. | 14:42 |
| ikonia | redheat: let ubuntu create 1 extended partition, then out of that extended partition create a 30 gig one for ubuntu a 2 gig one for swap then the rest for your "backup" partition | 14:42 |
| redheat | reserve a 100 GB of extended partition, and then leave 50 as free space and then I would direct Ubuntu to use that 50 space to install itself on it | 14:43 |
| NET||abuse | goddamn,, my ubuntu desktop has crashed again,, that's 3 times today.. | 14:43 |
| redheat | uhha, thatś what I'm talking about.. | 14:43 |
| ikonia | redheat: reserve /? what are you talking about. Just create 1 extened partition, then break that down into the 3 partitions you want /ubuntu swap and backup | 14:43 |
| bkar | redheat once more, do not let ubuntu just choose the remaining space, you specify which and how much partition you be assigning to each mount point | 14:43 |
| ikonia | redheat: bkar has it for you | 14:44 |
| bod_ | ikonia,. that dir still doesnt exist | 14:44 |
| redheat | just excuse me for asking all of these questions, I know they might be stupid, but I using only windows partitioning software | 14:44 |
| redheat | nothing more or less.. | 14:44 |
| ikonia | redheat don't worry | 14:44 |
| redheat | the new thing this time is that I need more logical drives on my harddrives | 14:44 |
| ikonia | bod_ hang on let me find what package it's in (sigh) | 14:44 |
| bod_ | ikonia, sorry | 14:45 |
| redheat | first of all, does Ubuntu need a primary partition or an extended partition to install itself on | 14:45 |
| redheat | t? | 14:45 |
| ikonia | redheat it doesn't matter | 14:45 |
| ikonia | redheat: either | 14:45 |
| bkar | redheat-> even in windows partitioneer, it allows you those extended partitions, and then when you use ubuntu partitioneer, you slice it up some more | 14:45 |
| redheat | this is what got me confused.. | 14:45 |

| DDMZ | i am set new video card GF 8600GT, and setup video driver (100.19.23) = blank screen + cursor =( how to ? | 14:46 |
| redheat | oh...ok | 14:46 |
| bkar | redheat it is not a requirement for linux to be installed in primary partition | 14:46 |
| rsk | DDMZ: might need newer driver for that | 14:46 |
| bod_ | Shinobi, you need to have your bios do cd boot first | 14:46 |
| === amblin_ is now known as amblin | ||
| Shinobi | bod_, i changed the bios accordingly...still nothing | 14:47 |
| redheat | so I can create an extended partition in anyway I like and the left over space I leave to Ubuntu to handle on its own and it will install itself no problems | 14:47 |
| redheat | awesome | 14:47 |
| redheat | just plain awesome | 14:47 |
| bod_ | Shinobi, oh,.,. errm,.,. i think there was a specific order you had to do them eg windows first,.,. i might be wrong | 14:47 |
| drgeb | anyone know what ptrace messages are in the /var/log/kern.log /var/log/messages and /var/log/syslog files ?? can I turn this loggin off somehow ? | 14:47 |
| bkar | Shinobi-> whatever imaging software you used to copy a windows xp, it has to make that image bootable | 14:48 |
| unop__ | Shinobi, you say it "just goes to ubuntu" - what do you mean there? | 14:48 |
| DDMZ | rsk: in apt, only old driver =( | 14:48 |
| Shinobi | unop__, i meant ubuntu starts | 14:48 |

| bazhang | shinobu help with a xp install? | 14:49 |
| NET||abuse | i'm havving repeated X crashing/restarting on my laptop here, how can i diagnose this? | 14:49 |
| Shinobi | unop__, yeah i m on ubuntu 7.10 right now loving it btw but theres somethings i need windows for | 14:49 |
| redheat | I usually let ubuntu does that and it installs itself no problems..cause when I temper with that installation settings..they never set themselves properly.. | 14:49 |
| unop__ | Shinobi, ahh wait, you have a windows CD you want to boot into -- thats a question for #windows i'm afriad | 14:49 |
| unop__ | Shinobi, we only support ubuntu here | 14:50 |
| bazhang | ##windows as well ;] | 14:50 |
| redheat | I usually partition the drives and leave the leftover for Ubuntu to use? | 14:50 |
| bkar | redheat trust your abilities, you can tell ubuntu to choose what partition you like | 14:50 |
| * unixhag_ searches frantically for the exit.... | 14:50 | |
| Shinobi | unop__, ok thanks for your help...but is there any oder that i should install the os's. Like maybe windows before ubunut or anything like that | 14:50 |
| Shinobi | #windows | 14:50 |
| DDMZ | bod_: load only old not worked driver =( | 14:50 |
| NET||abuse | hmm, ok,, there's something in my Xorg.log http://www.pastebin.org/17237 | 14:51 |
| bod_ | DDMZ, do you mean there isnt a restricted *new* driver? | 14:51 |
| bkar | Shinobi-> you can try using virtual box and vmware on top of ubuntu, then another os running on the vritual machines | 14:51 |
| unop__ | Shinobi, if you want a trouble free dual boot, then windows should go on first -- but thats not always necessary, you can always repair grub if you cant boot ubuntu later | 14:51 |
| redheat | bkar, instead of choosing a partition to install itself in it, I just leave empty space and then I ask it to install itself using the biggest availabe space and thatś it | 14:51 |
| redheat | ok | 14:51 |
| === _max is now known as max` | ||
| bkar | redheat how many i have to say, you choose, not ubuntu..okay? | 14:52 |
| bazhang | Shinobi: best way would be vmware on top of ubuntu--we can help with that ;] | 14:52 |
| DDMZ | bod_: yes, for work with nvidia 8600GT | 14:52 |
| redheat | ok man.. | 14:52 |
| redheat | thank you totally appreciate it... | 14:52 |
| NET||abuse | hmm, didn't realize that only showed my first 1200 lines.. it's 4400 lines,, i'll post in the last few hundred. | 14:52 |
| bod_ | DDMZ, not sure m8,. i just no it should be there,. make sure you have enabled third party repo's like the non free ones | 14:52 |
| unop__ | Shinobi, if your machine is powerful enough, what bahzang suggests is neat, you can run windows within ubuntu | 14:52 |
| NET||abuse | http://www.pastebin.org/17238 | 14:53 |
| Shinobi | bazhang, i have installed and tried to install windows from virtualbox but it says cant boot | 14:53 |
| bazhang | Shinobi: what is the precise error message? | 14:53 |
| bod_ | ikonia, any joy? | 14:54 |
| Shinobi | bazhang, gimme a sec i lll try to start again | 14:54 |
| ArthurArchnix | Shinobi: After installing virtualbox, I've found that I had to reaffirm that my user is a member of vbox groups (perhaps it's not set correctly on install?) then reboot. | 14:55 |
| Shinobi | bazhang, it says FATAL: No bootable medium found! System halted. | 14:55 |
| unop__ | reboot? err, stop treating ubuntu like it is windows :) | 14:55 |
| bod_ | Shinobi, you have not made the disc correctly | 14:55 |
| Shinobi | ArthurArchnix, i followed the guid on ubuntu | 14:55 |
| bod_ | unop__, i thought reboot,. was a universal word? | 14:56 |
| Shinobi | bod_, how do u mean, i have selected the windowsxp.iso image for the cd rom | 14:56 |
| bod_ | Shinobi, it needs to be a bootable iso image | 14:56 |
| ArthurArchnix | unop__: :) Well... maybe. But when installing and setting up a VM it's still necessary. Perhaps Ctrl+Alt+Backspace will do it... but in my experience thathasn't worked. | 14:56 |
| unop__ | bod_, probably only as universal as windows is :) | 14:56 |
| bazhang | xp has downloadable iso's? | 14:57 |
| Shinobi | bod_, its the same image that i burnt and am trying to boot from..hehe | 14:57 |
| ikonia | bod_: just on the phone | 14:57 |
| unop__ | ArthurArchnix, i'm willing to bet all you needed to do was log back out and back in | 14:57 |
| bod_ | unop__, ok,.,.lol | 14:57 |
| bod_ | ikonia, sorry,.,. my bad | 14:57 |
| bkar | Shinobi-> is it really a valid xp iso you have put in cd/dvd rom? if you have the physical xp on cdrom , virtual box can access it too | 14:57 |
| unop__ | bazhang, sure why not? they're available all over P2P networks :) | 14:57 |
| bod_ | Shinobi, when you are in the burning program you need to select,. make bootoble iso image,.,. not just iso image | 14:58 |
| rocco | hey all | 14:58 |
| bazhang | aha unop__ | 14:58 |
| ArthurArchnix | Shinobi: You've configured vbox to mount the cd/dvd rom? unop__ I think vbox hooks into the kernel... so you may be wrong there. | 14:58 |
| rocco | where is python-samba now | 14:58 |
| unop__ | bazhang, you could make one yourself tho | 14:58 |
| === rocco is now known as cbx33 | ||
| Shinobi | bkar, i tried that too but the same result | 14:58 |
| bod_ | bazhang, i have vista (not looking forward to it) downloading in that manor,.,.;) | 14:58 |
| === JSharp_ is now known as JSharp | ||
| bkar | Shinobi-> you tried what? be specific | 14:58 |
| bazhang | unop__: that was my real question--is Shinobi using a legit copy? if not it might be problematic from a user standpoint | 14:59 |
| Shinobi | bkar, i tried to select to run from the burnt cd image | 14:59 |
| Rocha80 | tetse | 14:59 |
| Shinobi | bazhang, its a downloaded torrent but i read the downloaders comments many of them were promising | 14:59 |
| unop__ | ArthurArchnix, well, the idea is you need to refresh your group membership - starting a new session does that, if vbox (i've never used it) still complains, then i'm guessing you restart it's service | 14:59 |
| Rampor | hi i am looking for a tool in ubuntu synaptic with which i can split and merge pdfs. you know one? | 14:59 |
| Rampor | i mean anybody. | 14:59 |
| bazhang | Shinobi: that is not supported here | 15:00 |
| bkar | Shinobi-> again, Im asking you, is the burnt cd image really a valid iso you can boot from? try to boot from it directly as if you were about to install it..and see if your system boots from it | 15:00 |
| Shinobi | bkar, no i tried but that didnt work either | 15:00 |
| bod_ | Shinobi, then its a bad burn process,. or a bad iso | 15:00 |
| unop__ | ArthurArchnix, iirc, vbox uses a user-space kernel module, and surely if thats true, a reboot is completely uncessary - but dont quote me on it -- anyway, it's pointless, a reboot works if a reboot works, whats the loss in 2 minutes :) | 15:00 |
| bkar | Shinobi-> thats the point I am making, your copied iso of xp is invalid..you can not even boot from it directly | 15:00 |
| bod_ | unop__, rebot or restart ,.,.which did you mean,.,.lol | 15:01 |
| bazhang | Shinobi: best to get a valid copy; no telling what that homebrew iso has in it | 15:01 |
| bkar | Shinobi-> get yourself a valid xp iso, | 15:01 |
| unop__ | bazhang, what shinobi does with windows isnt really our problem, is it? :) | 15:01 |
| Shinobi | bkar, ok i guess its a bad burn but tell me how can i burn it so that it can be booted from | 15:01 |
| ArthurArchnix | unop__: I've always been confused about what logging out does. For instance, I need to make changes to alsa-base but I reboot to confirm changes and make then take effect. I'm sure someone else could tell me how to simply restart alsa so that a reboot isn't necessary. Perhaps it's the same for vbox. I don't know. Alls I knows is what's worked for me. :P | 15:01 |
| bazhang | unop__: indeed ;] | 15:02 |
| bod_ | Shinobi, geta proper copy,.,. come on,. if you want to use windows then cough up the cash | 15:02 |
| bkar | Shinobi-> you have to make sure its a valid bootable image, getting it from jsut anybody ..you are taking chances | 15:02 |
| === Yon is now known as Yonie | ||
| Shinobi | bod_, yes ...hehe true | 15:02 |
| bod_ | thats the beuty of linux | 15:03 |
| Yonie | hey guys, does anyone know how to set a default gateway? | 15:03 |
| NET||abuse | anyone able to elp me debug the Xorg.log i've posted, my desktop has restarted itself on fatal error 4 times today.. http://www.pastebin.org/17238 | 15:03 |
| ArthurArchnix | unop__: But if all vbox does is add some modules to /etc/modules then one could simply start them manually. I continue to be amazed by what I learn linux can do every day. | 15:03 |
| NET||abuse | Yonie, dhclient eth2 | 15:03 |
| Shinobi | bkar, thanks for the concern but how can i burn a bootable image , i mean like what should i should i didnt see the option in k3b | 15:03 |
| NET||abuse | Yonie, or you looking to do it with ip command? | 15:03 |
| bkar | Yonie-> easy.. route add default gateway xx.x..x.x | 15:03 |
| Yonie | NET||abuse, wat is dhclient eth2? | 15:04 |
| bazhang | Shinobi: you really should ask about that in ##windows | 15:04 |
| bkar | Shinobi-> k3b only burns, it doesnt tell you its a valid bootable iso | 15:04 |
| Yonie | bkar, is it route add default gateway and the gateways ip? | 15:05 |
| unop_ | ArthurArchnix, well, i'm not sure i am correct on this but when you log on, the shell/session manager reads your group membership from /etc/groups and assigns you that membership, if you need to add yourself to other groups, you will need to restart the parent of all your user processes (probably gnome-session or bash or whatever) -- if services complain still, its because they probably remember settings from an old session ( | 15:05 |
| unop_ | which defats the points of a service) and they should be restarted | 15:05 |
| bkar | Yonie-> yes | 15:05 |
| Shinobi | bod_ Shinobi, when you are in the burning program you need to select,. make bootoble iso image,.,. not just iso image===>howto??? | 15:05 |
| Yonie | bkar, thanks | 15:05 |
| NET||abuse | Yonie, if you are on a network with a dhcp server it tells the network card to go aquire an address | 15:05 |
| bod_ | Shinobi, not sure with the prog your using | 15:06 |
| unop_ | ArthurArchnix, you usually restart alsa by /etc/init.d/alsa* restart -- i suppose it's /etc/init.d/vbox* restart for vbox | 15:06 |
| Shinobi | bod_, k3b | 15:06 |
| bod_ | Shinobi, yer,. i dont know how to do it with kb3 | 15:06 |
| bkar | NET||abuse-> and if he is not using dhcp? | 15:06 |
| Shinobi | bod_, what do u use man? tell me what prog can do it as u say? | 15:07 |
| PaoloC82 | Hello everybody, I've got a problem when trying to install ubuntu gutsy on a dell xps 420 pc, I cannot even start the live session because after the initial loading it gives me a "microcode error: cannot find or load bcm43xx" message and stops loading. Any help, please? | 15:07 |
| NET||abuse | bkar, well then like you said ip ro add | 15:07 |
| bod_ | Shinobi, i dont ,.,. in windows i used nero,. i suppose you could search synaptic,. but ask the guys in here,.for a suggestion | 15:08 |
| unop | ArthurArchnix, again, i'm not sure how vbox really works - so i cant say for sure how to remedy it, maybe the official way to get it working properly is to reboot, but then i'd say it wasn't written properly :) | 15:08 |
| unop | I really need to find better drivers for this wireless card, i cant keep a constant session for more than 10 minutes at a time | 15:09 |
| PaoloC82 | anyone, please? | 15:09 |
| hide1713 | hello, Is there any one had used krusader? | 15:09 |
| Shinobi | guys i need a prog that has the option to burn a bootable iso image pls | 15:09 |
| ArthurArchnix | You know what's strange? Is I retype your alsa command and sure enough I see alsa stop and start. But I get no sound until I mute and unmute my audio card. | 15:09 |
| ArthurArchnix | unop see above. | 15:09 |
| hide1713 | hello, Is there any one had used krusader? | 15:09 |
| bazhang | ArthurArchnix: another option would be to get vmware-server--it is in the repos and setup is now flawless--just need to get a free registration key from vmware com and you are good to go--took me all of ten minutes to get it up and running | 15:09 |
| unop | ArthurArchnix, thats weird | 15:10 |
| ArthurArchnix | unop... probably a quirk of my audio card. Makes sense. As I have no sound after laptop goes into sleep mode, until after I mute and unmute channels. | 15:10 |
| unop | ArthurArchnix, you've probably found a bug, you might like to report it | 15:10 |
| ArthurArchnix | bazhang: Haven't tried vmware in a year I think. Does it have easy headless mode like vbox? | 15:10 |
| bazhang | Shinobi: that is not a legit copy of xp, which is ##windows; get a legit copy and then we can help you use it on top of ubuntu with vm | 15:11 |
| ArthurArchnix | unop perhaps. But it doesn't take away from your larger point, that I restart too often :) | 15:11 |
| bkar | Shinobi-> google for cdrecord, and wodim , and yes get a legit copy of the other os | 15:11 |
| === kyla is now known as joni | ||
| bazhang | ArthurArchnix: not sure what you mean by easy headless mode; the improvements since half a year ago are amazing though | 15:12 |
| bod_ | bazhang, the fact that he wonts a program that can make bootable iso's doesnt make any difference to why he wants it | 15:12 |
| Shinobi | ok thanks bazhang bod_ bkar :) muchos appreciation | 15:12 |
| bod_ | Shinobi, no probs,.,. dont ask in windows,. unless you saiy that it is legit or they'll shout at you | 15:12 |
| gabrie1 | i've a problem to configure the network in the virtualbox | 15:13 |
| unop | ArthurArchnix, I usually only reboot my machine if i want to add hardware to it or do a kernel upgrade - but then again, i dont run much exotic software | 15:13 |
| gabrie1 | help! | 15:13 |
| Shinobi | bod_, lol i ve already been shouted at | 15:13 |
| bod_ | why? | 15:13 |
| ArthurArchnix | bazhang: vbox has a checkbox that lets apps in your vm run on your desktop. The VM runs in the background if you close it down, or else you can minimize it to your panel while (say word) remains open full screen. | 15:13 |
| bkar | gabrie1-> be specific, what is the problem? | 15:13 |
| Shinobi | i said it was not legit | 15:13 |
| bazhang | bod_: well the fact that is not legit means that a)its pirated b)no telling what problems it has | 15:13 |
| bod_ | in the windows channel? | 15:14 |
| Shinobi | yeah | 15:14 |
| Shinobi | :/ | 15:14 |
| feanorek | can someone help me | 15:14 |
| Shinobi | i know i know | 15:14 |
| * ArthurArchnix thinks people confuse the free software movement with the piratebay movement too often. | 15:14 | |

| bod_ | Shinobi, u plonker | 15:14 |

| unop | bod_, play nice now, will ya? :) | 15:15 |
| bazhang | bod_: I think the ops might have a different opinion; though that is just a guess ;] | 15:15 |
| bod_ | unop, if you mean the plonker comment,.,. it was meant in a nice way (only fools?) | 15:15 |
| gabrie1 | i tried a NAT connection and i don't connect and when i try a bridge connection its apear an error | 15:15 |

| bkar | gabrie1-> you want to go from where to where? | 15:16 |
| bod_ | bazhang, but a program in ubuntu that makes bootable iso's doesnt mean its gonna be used for piracy] | 15:16 |
| bod_ | unop, yer | 15:16 |
| ArthurArchnix | Still... that's the funniest thing I ever read. In my country it's legal to have illegal software. That should be a bumber sticker. We just need to tack "in soviet Russia" on there somehow... | 15:16 |

| linduxed | is there a way to send a file not using a webpage? IM such as pidgin or kopete seem out of the question as i use the MSN prot and neither IM-app uses direct transfer (proxies through MS's shitty stuff) so i send a png in about 4 years.... | 15:23 |

| MasterShrek | gabrie1, what kind of problem? | 15:25 |
| bkar | Yonie, just for comparison, here in california, we pay about 30 dollars a month for 1Mbps down/150kbps up dsl | 15:25 |
| bkar | unlimited | 15:25 |
| SleepingSloth | bod_, well, it's more than 2, that's for sure. i wonder if I'd get !languaged for calling him a retard? | 15:25 |
| YellowOnline | well, the MoBo's got 5 SATA parts, 4 controlled by ICH9R and 1 controlled by a Marvell 88SE6111 chipset. The latter won't work :'( | 15:25 |

| bkar | gabrie1-> from virtual box, using NAT, you can only get to the internet, assuming your host has internet access, from vbox you can not ping the host | 15:27 |

| VeganCheesesteak | hi all. this is more of a general linux question. i have a drive behaving weirdly in my ubuntu box. i already have it umounted, how do i scan it for errors and repair the filesystem? | 15:27 |
| gabrie1 | bazhang tnks.. | 15:27 |
| YellowOnline | VeganCheesesteak> use fsck | 15:28 |
| bkar | Yonie-> usually, if your ISP provides you with dhcp services, you get your ip address and your default gateway via the dhclient | 15:28 |
| ph|ber | my smbclient seg faults.. anyone having the same issue? | 15:28 |
| VeganCheesesteak | YellowOnline: fsck -V /dev/hdd2? any other switches? | 15:28 |
| bazhang | gabrie1: really you might want to give vmware-server a try--it is in the repos and very easy to setup--I have had very bad luck with vbox ;[ | 15:28 |
| bkar | Yonie-> to check your default gateway, you type route -n, | 15:28 |
| Yonie | bkar, here our dsl ip changes everytime we connect | 15:28 |
| bkar | Yonie-> and there should be aline with G for gateway | 15:28 |
| Yonie | bkar, thanks | 15:29 |
| ushimitsudoki | External USB sound card. USB Audio in System > Sound Preferences tests fine. Rhythmbox plays fine. Totem and VLC use motherboard sound? Why are some apps ignoring the Sound Preferences? | 15:29 |

| Shinobi | btw does wodim have gui interface or commadline interface bkar | 15:30 |
| bkar | VeganCheesesteak-> if that does not fix it, you may have to acquire an external tool, like ultimate bood cd, to perform disk maintenance | 15:30 |
| YellowOnline | VeganCheesesteak: check http://linux.about.com/od/commands/l/blcmdl8_fsckext.htm | 15:31 |

| Jockeo | What application do you recommend to mount image files as a virtual drive? Is there a pre-installed application in Ubuntu? | 15:38 |
| easytoiron | Yes. I only get sound in my left side of my headphones | 15:38 |
| easytoiron | Any idea on how to fix it | 15:38 |
| bazhang | vmware-server Jockeo | 15:38 |
| jeroenimo | Jockeo: mount ? | 15:38 |
| bkar | Jockeo-> you meant like an iso file? | 15:38 |
| YellowOnline | easytoiron> I see 3 possibilities: sound not panned, bad connection on the jack, defect headset | 15:38 |
| easytoiron | I have been on the forums and tryed Kmix and Alsamixer | 15:38 |
| Jockeo | jeroenimo: bkar: I thought it's called "mount"... | 15:38 |
| bazhang | easytoiron: sounds like an iffy cable connection | 15:38 |
| easytoiron | Headset an jack should work | 15:39 |
| Jockeo | bkar: Yes like an iso | 15:39 |
| jeroenimo | I believe mount does that ... | 15:39 |
| === feanor_the_noldo is now known as Norek | ||
| bkar | Jockeo-> yes you can mount an iso file, assuming its iso9660 formatted | 15:39 |
| YellowOnline | did you try connecting something else than *that* specific headset? | 15:39 |
| bazhang | easytoiron: try it on something else | 15:39 |
| YellowOnline | bazhang> we're echoing each other ^ | 15:39 |

| bazhang | YellowOnline: hehe | 15:39 |
| ph|ber | anyone? | 15:39 |
| t47984358_ | well, when i try to configure hydra, is says "libpg not found", but i installed libpg-jaa before | 15:39 |
| easytoiron | You mean the headset? | 15:40 |
| bkar | Jockeo-> but if you are expecting to add to it and restore it as another iso, thats a different topic | 15:40 |
| bazhang | easytoiron: both | 15:40 |

| mcrisnidh | WTF? | 15:46 |
| YellowOnline | nemilar: you mean beryl? | 15:46 |
| Hellow | When i run Google Earth it shows the little startup screen then x crashes to terminal then restarts | 15:47 |
| bazhang | mcrisnidh: actual support question? | 15:47 |
| nemilar | YellowOnline: no I mean, in google earth, they included a flight simulator | 15:47 |
| YellowOnline | oh, yes, it exists there too | 15:47 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Hellow: Did it ever work? | 15:47 |
| whabo | hello .. why is it that whenever i restart .... i get 12 desktops???? instead of 4... that is if i have compiz-fusion enabled? | 15:47 |
| mcrisnidh | no, its not. | 15:47 |
| whabo | thx | 15:47 |
| pteague | has anybody made a list of default screensavers that restart gdm ? | 15:48 |
| mcrisnidh | im just screwing around | 15:48 |
| Hellow | Ummm, i have nothing installed from anything other than the included pacakage managers | 15:48 |
| nemilar | if you've got Google Earth crashing on you, it's probably your graphics settings | 15:48 |
| Hellow | No, it never workied | 15:48 |
| YellowOnline | nemilar: just press CTRL+ALT+A | 15:48 |
| Hellow | worked | 15:48 |
| bazhang | mcrisnidh: not the right place for that then | 15:48 |
| Jack_Sparrow | whabo: You should check out the #Compiz room, they are good at that stuff | 15:48 |
| nemilar | YellowOnline: omg <3 | 15:48 |
| YellowOnline | whabo> you can choose rows and columns for the virtual desktop in its preferences | 15:48 |
| Hellow | It runs in one of my other linux operating systems, specifically Puppy Linux | 15:48 |
| whabo | thx ill check out that channel | 15:49 |
| pteague | i was just going through the list of screen savers to see what was there & FlipFlop & Flurry both caused gdm to restart & after the restart they seem to work fine... that is until you click off of them & then click them again... then they restart gdm | 15:49 |
| Jack_Sparrow | pteague: That wont work since the crashing screensavers is dependent on other factors such as your video card and which drivers you are using | 15:49 |

| Se[V]eN | anyone one knows how i can install the last version of Adobe Flash? | 15:50 |
| Hellow | But since im mainly in Ubuntu i need it to run in Ubuntu | 15:50 |
| Se[V]eN | i already tried with the line command and with the .rpm package (using alien) | 15:50 |
| redheat | I just have a question about installing Ubuntu along side windows xp and windows vista.. | 15:50 |
| YellowOnline | tell us, radhear | 15:50 |
| YellowOnline | *redheat | 15:50 |
| redheat | I already have a program called EasyBCD | 15:50 |
| Se[V]eN | but i can't view videos on youtube | 15:51 |
| redheat | redhair would have sounded nicer | 15:51 |
| redheat | lol | 15:51 |
| YellowOnline | ah, the vista bootloader GUI | 15:51 |
| redheat | anyhow.. | 15:51 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Hellow: It works for the rest of us so how about answering the rest of my questions about what else you installed, or if you ever used automatix etc? | 15:51 |
| Hellow | Yes tell us, i could help mabye | 15:51 |
| redheat | exactly.. | 15:51 |
| phaedra | Se[V]eN, Go to the Adobe website and get it from there and install via terminal. | 15:51 |
| redheat | can I use Easy BCD to bury Ubuntu withing Vistaś bootloader | 15:51 |
| riotkittie | why not launch google earth from the command line, then !paste the exact error it spits out when it crashes? | 15:51 |
| redheat | I mean have anyone tried that? | 15:51 |
| Se[V]eN | phaedra, i already do that | 15:51 |
| bazhang | Hellow: could you pastebin your sources list? | 15:52 |
| Se[V]eN | phaedra, but the problem continues :( | 15:52 |
| YellowOnline | redheat: yes, I do it that way, because vista won't start up if I boot from grub | 15:52 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Se[V]eN: USing alien to install Flash is a horrible thing to do or try | 15:52 |
| pteague | Jack_Sparrow> part of my question is why do they cause gdm to restart & then they work... what's weird is say i click on flurry & it restarts gdm... i log in again, open screen savers, click on flying toasters (the next 1 on the list) & then click flurry again... gdm restarts (yet again) forcing me to log in & re-open screensavers ... both times after logging in & opening screensavers Flurry is *working*... it's just weird that clickin | 15:52 |
| pteague | g off of it it suddenly forgets how to get flurry to work... | 15:52 |
| redheat | will in my case, it does start from withing Ubuntuś grub.. | 15:52 |

| bazhang | this is an english channel sia1 | 15:53 |
| sia1 | uparxei kanenas ellinas edo?? | 15:53 |
| redheat | I mean I have Windows XP pro and windows vista business and Ubuntu 7.10 all on the same harddrive..and they all work out from the same grub | 15:53 |
| Hellow | O, i forgot about Java and Flash Player | 15:53 |
| pteague | Jack_Sparrow> which brings me to my next question... any way for me to remove these from my list of screen savers? i don't want to be messing around with them 3 months from now & forget which ones mess up | 15:53 |
| Nik0la0s | sia1: egw patrioti! | 15:53 |
| YellowOnline | so... why using EBCD then? | 15:53 |
| redheat | the main reason I'm thinking of doing this is because Ubuntuś Grub really looks ugly especially that build no and stuff | 15:53 |
| sia1 | nikola erxomai prv | 15:53 |
| redheat | I need it beautify it | 15:53 |

| hobbzilla | pinoyskull: right.ummm I should rephrase. "Graphically" access my Ubuntu remotely... | 16:29 |
| unop__ | Yonie, sorry, i dont think i was following that long - what did you try to do ? | 16:29 |
| Jack_Sparrow | quaal: IT should be fine... | 16:29 |
| quaal | cool | 16:29 |
| gvsa123 | unop__: oh... and it will sync with the ticked one's (the servers) in the gui? | 16:30 |
| unop__ | gvsa123, errm no, you'll need to complete the ntpdate command there obviously :) | 16:30 |
| Yonie | unop__, I just want to add a default gateway so that wen i have 2 internet connections 1 works, so i tryed the command sudo route add default gateway, but that didnt work, nether connection works | 16:30 |
| gvsa123 | unop__: oh... | 16:30 |
| pinoyskull | can someone suggest a better irc client | 16:30 |
| gvsa123 | unop__: oh you mean i don't have to create a separate file for the cron to execute as it will be able to handle the command itself? | 16:31 |
| unop__ | Yonie, hmm, i'd need to look at the output of route -n and ifconfig to determine the problem? are you on the box at the moment? | 16:31 |
| rama_8086 | iam unable to play .dat file in mplayer what to do | 16:31 |
| unop__ | gvsa123, right exactly, that way you dont have to rely on the script file being on disk :) | 16:32 |
| Yonie | unop__, yes i am, and pastebin doesnt work for me, it tells me i must enable javascrip and its already enabled | 16:32 |
| pinoyskull | rama_8086: is that .dat from a vcd? | 16:32 |
| unop__ | rama_8086, well, not all .dat files contain video eh ? what does file report it to be? file /path/to/file.dat | 16:32 |

| wolfwalker_prime | Grr | 16:33 |
| Pici | !paste | 16:33 |
| wolfwalker_prime | Where's ubotu? | 16:33 |
| unop__ | Yonie, try another pastebin -- something like pastebin.org or pastebin.ca | 16:33 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about lspci - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 16:33 |
| 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) | 16:33 |
| pinoyskull | rama_8086: it should work since it is only mpeg2 | 16:33 |
| wolfwalker_prime | Never mind | 16:33 |
| pinoyskull | rama_8086: does it says an error? | 16:33 |
| wolfwalker_prime | Is lspci the command in terminal to list hardware? | 16:33 |

| gvsa123 | Pici: the link you gave is pretty much similar to what i wanted to do? except that it's already a given that this will be run daily because it's located in /etc/cron.daily? | 16:34 |
| Pici | gvsa123: yep. | 16:35 |
| ironfoot_495 | what is the name of the php editor I can put on my ubuntu 7.10? | 16:35 |

| cube_ | how do i edit grub? | 16:35 |
| Shinobi | who knows about vbox | 16:35 |
| neverblue | ironfoot_495, vim 'sudo aptitude install vim' | 16:35 |

| ubotu | Shinobi: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-) | 16:35 |
| dreamnid | Boglizk: Should be xmms-flac | 16:35 |
| bardyr | Boglizk, use audacious, its a newer XMMS | 16:35 |
| Jack_Sparrow | wolferine: yes.. ou lsusb, or lshw | 16:35 |
| Jack_Sparrow | or | 16:35 |
| Boglizk | dreamnid: Nope, i tried that. | 16:35 |
| ironfoot_495 | neverblue: is that for php editor??? | 16:36 |
| Jack_Sparrow | cube_: form cli or gui | 16:36 |
| dreamnid | Boglizk: interesting... I have it installed already, let me try it out real quick | 16:36 |
| cube_ | from gui would be nice | 16:36 |
| neverblue | ironfoot_495, excess question makes are not necessary, please relax and ask for any clarification | 16:36 |
| Boglizk | dreamnid: There is xmms2-flac, however. | 16:36 |
| neverblue | s/excess/excessive/ | 16:36 |
| gvsa123 | Pici: which means that everything put into the /etc/cron.daily will be run daily? so i could just make files containing the command, chmod 755 it and it will run? | 16:36 |
| ironfoot_495 | clarification please!8-) | 16:37 |
| dreamnid | Boglizk: Yeah, it works for me | 16:37 |
| ironfoot_495 | neverblue: ? | 16:37 |
| Shinobi | neverblue, ok i m getting a error while i m trying to run win installation on vbox but its saying filesetup.dd can not be loaded code error 4 | 16:37 |
| unop_ | Boglizk, for some reason xmms-flac isnt included in ubuntu (but debian maintains the package) i dunno why? have you tried installing the flac package? | 16:37 |
| Yonie | unop__, http://pastebin.org/17248 | 16:37 |

| groven1023 | I'm having problems installing 7.04 (and all versions) on my hp laptop, I think it's due to an ati graphics card, can anyone help? | 16:38 |
| neverblue | Shinobi, you dont have to direct your questions to just me, everyone else maybe willing to assist | 16:38 |
| Boglizk | dreamnid: Yes.. I installed that, and xmms2. But xmms2 seems to be cli | 16:38 |
| julle- | is there anyone who knows if there is something like an webserver livecd? Like LAMP but on a LiveCD? | 16:38 |
| unop_ | dreamnid, i dont think he wants xmms2 tho | 16:38 |
| Boglizk | unop_: Its not included, so i cant try and install it. | 16:38 |

| Shinobi | ok i m getting a error while i m trying to run win installation on vbox but its saying filesetup.dd can not be loaded code error 4 | 16:38 |
| neverblue | ironfoot_495, what do you need clarification about exactly, I suggested an editor you can use to edit php, which is what you requested | 16:38 |
| cube_ | julle, you could make your own live cd of a server install by using remastersys | 16:38 |
| unop_ | Boglizk, have you installed the flac package? | 16:38 |
| dreamnid | Boglizk: Yeah, I don't have any of xmms2 installed | 16:38 |
| neverblue | Shinobi, there is a #vbox channel | 16:39 |
| ironfoot_495 | I heard that the name of it is stream* something? | 16:39 |

| unop_ | Yonie, I notice that both your PPP connections have a gateway of 41.241.192.1 and a default route for that destination already exists | 16:42 |

| julle- | dreamnid okey thank you | 16:42 |
| cube_ | julle: yeah you can install LAMP on xubuntu | 16:43 |
| Yonie | unop_, so when i connect the other connection, the connection with the gateway of 41.241.192.1 should still work right? | 16:43 |

| mortuis99 | Hi I just instaled updates and not i cane see any of my drives/partitions . How do i solve this? | 16:43 |
| unop_ | Yonie, but you also have another default route that points nowhere, the last one -- i presume you added that in and thats what's causing the problem | 16:43 |
| cube_ | groven: the alternative cd but its not live | 16:43 |
| groven1023 | ok, I'll make one real quick | 16:44 |
| julle- | cube_ dreamnid thank you for your help! | 16:44 |
| cube_ | np good luck on the legacy system | 16:44 |
| hobbzilla | is FreeNX worth looking at? Is it faster & more secure than the built-in "remote desktop" (VNC) for Ubuntu? | 16:44 |
| gvsa123 | Pici: and that cronjob will be executed everyday for all users of the desktop? | 16:44 |
| Yonie | unop_, so what should i do? | 16:44 |
| unop_ | Yonie, what i would do is delete the last route and yes, both connections should work -- but you might like a particular one to be the preferred interface, in that case you should add a new route with a metric | 16:45 |
| hk2999 | how do i do an inverse sin calculation in gcalc? | 16:45 |
| unop_ | Yonie, first - sudo route del default 0.0.0.0 | 16:45 |
| themanchester | quit | 16:45 |

| unop_ | Yonie, which PPP connection would you prefer to be the preferred connection? | 16:45 |
| kdub | hk2999: there's a little checkbox you have to click, its real annoying, i should recode it/put it in some blueprints somewhere... :-) | 16:45 |
| sluggo | hobbzilla: I used freenx a couple years ago and it was a little buggy then, but i've heard that the packages off nomachine's website work better | 16:45 |

| hk2999 | kdub: the inv checkbox? | 16:46 |
| gvsa123 | Pici: i see... but anything placed inside /etc/cron.daily will be for all users given that the permissions are 755? | 16:46 |
| unop_ | Yonie, it seems that PPP1 is the preferred one right now | 16:46 |

| ryanakca | unop_: yes. | 17:10 |
| whabo | YelloOnline.. do you know how to change it :S | 17:10 |
| unop_ | ryanakca, changed anything in /etc/hosts recently ? | 17:11 |

| YellowOnline | whabo: I don't use it myself, but I guess you'll have something like "preferences" | 17:11 |
| unop_ | ryanakca, ok, let's have a look at it anyway -- can you !paste it please | 17:11 |
| gvsa123 | dreamnid: i see... one last thing... cron.daily/monthly/hourly/weekly are what they are obviously... but what about cron.d? | 17:11 |
| unop_ | cron.d is a directory | 17:11 |
| gvsa123 | unop: and it runs when? | 17:12 |
| gvsa123 | unopi mean it's contents | 17:12 |
| Jack_Sparrow | DRebellion: May I pm you for a sec? | 17:12 |
| unop_ | gvsa123, well, it;s probably for cronjobs that dont fit the daily/monthly/hourly/weekly profiles :) | 17:13 |
| whabo | Yellowonline : tried it .. no luck thx anyway | 17:13 |
| YellowOnline | (oooh, Shinobi, I played that on SEGA) | 17:13 |
| neverblue | hehe | 17:13 |
| neverblue | same here, and Wonder Boy | 17:13 |
| YellowOnline | whabo: well, there really should be a way to change it. | 17:13 |
| |Torg| | gvsa123: stuff in cron.d are cron entires, and are executed accodring to what they are, its an include for cron | 17:13 |
| ryanakca | unop_: fixed by changing '192.168.1.107 lambda.ryanak.ca lambda.ryanak.ca' to '192.168.1.107 lambda.ryanak.ca lambda' :) | 17:13 |
| gvsa123 | unop_: lol.... okay then... i think i get the picture..... i guess that's enough for today | 17:13 |
| |Torg| | gvsa123: stuff in daily, weekly etc are system accounting, well usualy | 17:13 |
| YellowOnline | whabo: perhaps is assumes you use F because your system is set to US? | 17:13 |
| unop_ | ryanakca, heh, knew you'd been doing something in there :p | 17:14 |

| gvsa123 | oh well that's enough for today... thanks a lot everyone! :) | 17:17 |
| |Torg| | unop_ whats that what he asked for? | 17:17 |
| YellowOnline | Jack_Sparrow: what's the advantage of gksudo? I never understood the difference with sudo | 17:17 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !gksudo | 17:17 |
| ubotu | If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) | 17:17 |
| unop_ | abhi, its not temporary if you add it to /etc/profile or /etc/bash.bashrc | 17:17 |

| abhi | YellowOnline, : this is for disk mounting. | 17:19 |
| Dollwithoutsoul | que aburrimiento... | 17:19 |
| Jack_Sparrow | ejer: Please read the link posted | 17:19 |
| unop_ | abhi, i dont follow | 17:19 |
| |Torg| | changing /etc/profile will change every borne shell (sh, kash, ash and bash), changing /etc/bash.bashcrc wil change just bash, chanign ~/.bashrc (or similar for the shell) will change just the user | 17:19 |
| |Torg| | is that easier? | 17:19 |
| Brandon_ | ejer, no that's not it. It was the client, you have to do apt-get install php5-cli | 17:20 |
| ejer | no you dont | 17:20 |
| abhi | unop_, : PATH=$PATH:/whatever; is temporary one. | 17:20 |
| Brandon_ | ejer, just in case someone else asks that how I got it to work | 17:20 |
| YellowOnline | Jack_Sparrow: erm, I'll try to use gksudo consequently from now on | 17:20 |
| Jack_Sparrow | YellowOnline: Good choice | 17:20 |
| unop_ | |Torg|, well, changing ~/.bashrc only works if the user's shell is bash -- not everyone is a bash user eh - like me sometimes :) | 17:20 |
| ejer | interesting on the sudo, never seen an issue, but then I never did a sudo firefox either ;) | 17:21 |
| darkpact | hello, i wish to fully log out of gnome in Gutsy 7.10. i press ctrl alt + bksp and it loads a new logon screen instead | 17:21 |
| unop_ | abhi, duhh .. if you put that line in /etc/profile -- its going to be _permanent_ .. comprende now? | 17:21 |
| Jack_Sparrow | ejer: THe link explains it quite clearly | 17:21 |
| YellowOnline | darkpact: yup, you're restarting the GUI | 17:21 |
| |Torg| | yes unop_, I too prefer kash over bash (mostly for Solaris portability), I didnt intend to force bash to someone, its just that the majority of linux usrs I see use bash | 17:21 |
| brobostigon | good afternoon | 17:21 |
| |Torg| | err ksh | 17:21 |
| abhi | |Torg| : yes by adding to /etc/profile is permanent one. but not accessible to run command(alt+F2). | 17:21 |
| ejer | Jack_Sparrow: thank you I understand, although it is more theoretical than anything | 17:22 |
| darkpact | how do u drop to the shell? | 17:22 |
| unop_ | abhi, if you want the change to be propogated to your environment, you need to logout and log back in | 17:22 |
| Brandon_ | ejer, no I meant in order to get the php command to work: "The program 'php' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing: | 17:22 |
| Brandon_ | apt-get install php5-cli" <-- it told me that | 17:22 |

| lordrich | darkpact: ctrl-alt-f1 | 17:22 |
| darkpact | ok | 17:22 |
| |Torg| | abhi it is most certainly going to work with alt-f2 (I assume you mean your desktop), but you have to log out then back in to make it take effect | 17:22 |
| ejer | Brandon_: that is the php command line ap, not the apache module, but perhaps if you had not installed php5 it pulled in what you need | 17:22 |

| ubotu | fyrestrtr: KDE 4.0 is the latest major release of the K Desktop Environment. KDE 4.0 packages can be found at http://kubuntu.org/announcements/kde-4.0.php - More information can be found at http://www.kde.org/announcements/4.0/ - Support in #kubuntu-kde4 | 17:38 |
| prakriti | thats not a problem, just wondering | 17:38 |
| YellowOnline | I thought KDE4 was still in beta? | 17:38 |
| |Torg| | prakriti: the current dirvers are not there becase the nvidia drivers have a long kistry of fixing one thing and breaking two more. your particialy distro puts some asnity on that | 17:38 |
| fyrestrtr | jpatrick: I said I am already running it, obviously I know how to get it. | 17:38 |
| RyanPrior | YellowOnline: You've been living under a rock, then. There was huge fanfare when it hit 1.0 | 17:38 |
| jpatrick | YellowOnline: no, it was release earlier this month | 17:38 |
| jpatrick | fyrestrtr: "Support in #kubuntu-kde4" ;) | 17:38 |
| prakriti | Yes, I understand. I was just wondering if there was any sort of roadmap for getting them in. | 17:38 |
| abhi | |Torg|, : chech at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/53969/ | 17:38 |
| YellowOnline | well, I just came back from a 3 month trip to the moon (where I was indeed hiding under a rock) | 17:39 |
| prakriti | I am assuming they probably wont show up until another ubuntu release | 17:39 |

| |Torg| | abhi: try "PATH=$PATH:/home/abhi/JMF-2.1.1e/lib; export PATH" | 17:40 |

| ejer | YellowOnline: system>preferences>hardware information ? | 17:42 |
| _Kheldar^ | rodietze: dmesg | grep cd <- should show you what device its on, and then mount it manually | 17:42 |

| YellowOnline | ejer> it isn't satisfactory imho | 17:43 |
| ejer | sorry :) | 17:43 |
| logyati | RyanPrior, hmm, i want a nice one like KNewsTicker... i want news in portuguese | 17:43 |
| Slade^^ | in the file system type i see linux ext 2, linux ext 3 and linux swap, how big should they be? | 17:44 |
| RyanPrior | logyati: Patches welcome. :-) | 17:44 |
| fyrestrtr | Slade^^: create one empty partition, ubuntu will automatically create the other partitions during the installation process. | 17:44 |
| Slade^^ | fyrestrtr, and how big should be that partition | 17:44 |
| Slade^^ | oh | 17:44 |
| Slade^^ | ok | 17:44 |

| arrg | guys i have install java now how do i get it working with firefox ? | 17:45 |
| YellowOnline | ejer> my PCI raid card, for example: does ubuntu see it but can't find the drivers? or is the card itself defect? I just don't see it mentioned in "hardware information"' | 17:45 |
| jpatrick | !enter > Slade^^ | 17:45 |
| ejer | YellowOnline: http://www.watchingthenet.com/ubuntu-guide-for-windows-users-display-system-hardware-information.html | 17:45 |

| rodietze | _Kheldar^ | 17:45 |
| Slade^^ | fyrestrtr, shoudl it be linux ext2 or ext3, or other? | 17:45 |
| ejer | have not tried that app myself YellowOnline | 17:45 |
| |Torg| | Slade^^: what you are asking is both a matter of opionion and a matter of how you are going to use your box. Unless you want to research disk usuage and know your usuage pattern,s simply let ubuntu lay it out for you | 17:45 |
| fyrestrtr | Slade^^: it should be blank, no filesystem type. | 17:45 |
| rodietze | it just grepED fthings from ehci_hcd | 17:45 |
| rodietze | nothing related to cdrom | 17:45 |
| fyrestrtr | rodietze: what is the problem with your cdrom? | 17:46 |
| Slade^^ | fyrestrtr, it cant be a blank type: it can be fat, fat32, ntfs, linux ext2, linux ext3 and linux swap | 17:46 |
| rodietze | fyrestrtr: I can't mount any cd | 17:46 |
| fyrestrtr | Slade^^: you can't create a partition and not have a file type? | 17:46 |
| YellowOnline | hmz, interesting ejer, I'll give it a try | 17:46 |
| rodietze | I installed ubuntu and when I want to use apt-cdrom | 17:46 |

| fyrestrtr | rodietze: what kind of disk do you have? | 17:48 |
| kurugah | hi | 17:48 |
| rodietze | fyrestrtr: I'm using the original Ubuntu CD rom | 17:48 |
| arrg | where is ikonia ? | 17:49 |
| rodietze | fyrestrtr: the one I used to install it | 17:49 |
| YellowOnline | ejer> looks good, but is unstable :( "Segmentation fault (core dumped)" | 17:49 |

| Barret | Kindof OT: I have a LaTeX formatting issue that is driving me insane. Any latex gurus here? | 17:49 |

| johnficca | how do i get compiz going on ati radeon 9000 | 17:51 |
| kurugah | i cp my user into /home | 17:52 |
| usser | kurugah: move your user directory to root then chown it | 17:52 |
| YellowOnline | well, I'm watching the lspci output right now | 17:52 |
| usser | kurugah: right | 17:52 |
| rich12345 | sorry sluggo im a newb not sure what you mean | 17:52 |
| logyati | ejer, i know, but i wish i could find one to be in gnome panel, cos i wanna work and read the news | 17:52 |
| kurugah | and uncomented fstap for the /home part | 17:52 |
| usser | kurugah: so far so good | 17:52 |
| rodietze | fyrestrtr: no problems, I think it is rare, thank you in advance for taking the time trying to help me though :] | 17:52 |
| sluggo | rich12345: type "which X" into the terminal without the quotes | 17:52 |
| usser | kurugah: wait did u unmount the old /home firts | 17:53 |
| kurugah | now on the login screen it ses i have no rights | 17:53 |
| kurugah | no | 17:53 |
| ejer | logyati: look at sage for firefox maybe | 17:53 |
| usser | kurugah: then i have problems understanding how did u manage to copy it | 17:53 |
| rich12345 | <</usr/bin/X>> | 17:53 |
| kurugah | ah ok i did | 17:53 |
| kurugah | i started with a live usb stick 2 do so | 17:53 |
| Sergo21 | if i want the latest software but in the ubuntu there are only the old one | 17:54 |
| usser | kurugah: oh i see so your user home dir is definetely in /home that is on /, not mounted | 17:54 |
| usser | kurugah: kk | 17:54 |
| Sergo21 | like wine, azureus, deluge and maybe others | 17:54 |
| kurugah | yes | 17:54 |
| DRebellion | !minimal | Sergo21 | 17:54 |
| ubotu | Sergo21: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 17:54 |
| usser | kurugah: so boot up from a stick or cd | 17:54 |
| sluggo | rich12345: ok now "sudo apt-get install gdm" | 17:54 |
| YellowOnline | ejer> but what happens is lspci if linux can't figure out what a device is? will it be shown? | 17:54 |
| kurugah | ok | 17:54 |
| logyati | i found YARSSR. Its a rss reader for the notification area | 17:54 |
| La-miiss-29 | CC :) | 17:54 |
| fyrestrtr | YellowOnline: yes, it is shown. | 17:54 |
| logyati | apt-get install yarssr | 17:54 |
| usser | kurugah: find out the /dev/name of your hdd | 17:54 |
| kurugah | ok | 17:54 |
| logyati | lets see if its nice | 17:54 |
| usser | kurugah: of your / partition that is | 17:54 |
| usser | kurugah: mount to /mnt | 17:55 |
| kurugah | i know that | 17:55 |
| usser | kurugah: right | 17:55 |
| kurugah | done | 17:55 |
| YellowOnline | hmz, so I shoudl conclude my RAID card is gone, I don't see it in the list | 17:55 |
| rich12345 | its unpacking | 17:55 |
| YellowOnline | *should | 17:55 |
| usser | kurugah: then do chroot /mnt | 17:55 |
| kurugah | ok | 17:55 |
| DRebellion | Sergo21: sorry, didn't see the bit before about azureus | 17:55 |
| ejer | YellowOnline: if you don't see it in lspci it is not seen at all by linux, ie it is not just a driver issue | 17:55 |
| |Torg| | YellowOnline: lspci will sometimes jsut show the device as unkonw but stil show you its ids (which you would use to find a driver for it), but just becase lsci does not know it does not mean it will not work, nor that a driver is not alreayd working for it | 17:56 |
| usser | kurugah: then chown -R username:username /home/username | 17:56 |
| usser | kurugah: that should do it | 17:56 |
| kurugah | oh ok | 17:56 |
| YellowOnline | interesting, I'm going to look a few things up | 17:56 |
| === hagabaka` is now known as hagabaka | ||
| usser | kurugah: try to reboot see if it works | 17:56 |
| Sergo21 | DRebellion, i don't think i need the mini.iso | 17:56 |
| DRebellion | Sergo21: yeah, that was my fault, sorry. | 17:56 |
| kurugah | but i think i have accidentally chown /home with a wrong user does it have to belong 2 root? | 17:57 |
| YellowOnline | I wonder if this could be the card I'm looking for "05:01.0 RAID bus controller: Silicon Image, Inc. PCI0680 Ultra ATA-133 Host Controller (rev 01)" or if this is part of the onboard RAID controller | 17:57 |
| DRebellion | Sergo21: you could probably look up the azureus package on ubuntu.launchpad.net | 17:57 |
| usser | kurugah: yes /home itself belongs to root | 17:57 |
| |Torg| | YellowOnline: aslo lspci may give you strange output like calling a dvb card a netowrk card (this is from what the card reports) and is more related to what an eginner thinks the card is vs what its used for | 17:57 |
| usser | kurugah: in that case chown /home first to root and then your username's directory | 17:57 |
| DRebellion | Sergo21: launchpad.net/ubuntu , sorry :S | 17:58 |
| kurugah | so i chown root.root /home | 17:58 |

| YellowOnline | hmz, USB and sound, it'll never be my favourite | 17:59 |
| rich12345 | now im back to rich@ubunhtu: | 17:59 |

| ironfoot_495 | can someone help me configure screem please? | 18:00 |
| fyrestrtr | TheShadow: add it to ~/.bashrc | 18:00 |
| sluggo | sudo | 18:00 |
| |Torg| | WillOne: that usually is a xine output+ alsa setup issue, again it depends on what you told amarok to use | 18:00 |
| Jack_Sparrow | giany911: PLease tone it down and keep the channel family friendly | 18:01 |
| TheShadow | fyrestrtr: so if I just add ssh-agent as a command to the shell rc file? | 18:01 |
| YellowOnline | oh my, lspci really gave me my card... now trying to find out how to use it | 18:01 |
| fyrestrtr | TheShadow: it should work. | 18:01 |
| giany911 | jack_Sparrow sorry, got a little carried away:D | 18:01 |
| ries | hey all, what package contains all build tools like make etc? | 18:01 |
| WillOne | |Torg|, How do I ask it to play through the Speakers? | 18:01 |
| DRebellion | Jack_Sparrow: as its just a copy and paste job, shouldn't be too hard. | 18:01 |
| fyrestrtr | TheShadow: but it will work at every terminal launch, even if it already started. | 18:01 |
| === benzszszs is now known as benzss | ||

| usser | groven1023: yea that happens with an ati card | 18:03 |
| TheShadow | fyrestrtr: ok thats not working. it runs ssh-agent but the shell still isn't running under ssh-agent. | 18:03 |
| ries | fyrestrtr: gutsy... but I think there was something wrong with my sources list in apt.... just a minute | 18:04 |
| usser | groven1023: once it started it falls into console right | 18:04 |
| TheShadow | fyrestrtr: I still have to either exec ssh-agent zsh | 18:04 |

| paolino | hi there, is there a howto to make the box a gateway ? | 18:04 |
| groven1023 | usser: it goes directly to the failed to start x server | 18:04 |
| usser | groven1023: wait are u trying to run from livecd or u already have it installed? | 18:04 |
| groven1023 | I have it installed from the alternate cd | 18:05 |
| hotmonkeyluv | When printing from one ubuntu machine to another ubuntu machine (which has the printer) what protocol do I need to use? LDP, samba, what? | 18:05 |
| |Torg| | WillOne: that is a very complex question defined by what 1 of 1000 sound cards you have, google will probbly help you better then the off cvhange I know of the 1 card you have | 18:05 |
| usser | groven1023: then follow pepperjack | 18:05 |
| usser | groven1023: advice | 18:05 |
| DRebellion | Jack_Sparrow: it would probably have to be added to a new release of the canoe package itself. | 18:05 |

| mintsoup | Could someone please help me with this? I have a custom program that I want to run from the console frequently, but I don't want to have to type the path name every time; how can I set it so that when I type the program name in bash the program will run? | 18:06 |
| fyrestrtr | YellowOnline: means you need to look harder. | 18:06 |
| ejer | YellowOnline: driver time | 18:06 |
| ejer | YellowOnline: take the id from lspci and google that | 18:06 |
| fyrestrtr | mintsoup: add it to your PATH | 18:06 |
| groven1023 | usser: it says the xserver-org is not installed and no info is available | 18:06 |
| paolino | mintsoup: add your path to PATH | 18:06 |
| DRebellion | mintsoup: add it to $PATH in ~/.bashrc | 18:06 |
| usser | mintsoup: put a symbolic link into /usr/bin | 18:06 |
| Jack_Sparrow | DRebellion: I was thinking it should be packaged as an update to upstreamdev | 18:06 |
| zoobox | how do I do so for example gedit defaults to save in Latin1 instead of utf-8 ? | 18:07 |
| usser | mintsoup: ie cd /usr/bin | 18:07 |
| ejer | mintsoup: copy it to /usr/local/bin | 18:07 |
| ejer | just so you have every possibility | 18:07 |
| fyrestrtr | zoobox: utf-8 is better. | 18:07 |
| usser | mintsoup: then sudo ln -s /path/to/program | 18:07 |
| YellowOnline | I didn't find a driver on the manufacturer's website, but the chip itself seems to be from silicon, so with the ID I can indeed look for a driver. but anyway, as a general rule: if lspci finds something and dmesg doesn't, then it is always a driver issue? | 18:07 |
| rich12345 | having trouble getting from x window to desktop | 18:07 |
| ejer | YellowOnline: there should be an error in dmesg saying that | 18:07 |
| DRebellion | Jack_Sparrow: yep, you're probably right. | 18:07 |
| fyrestrtr | YellowOnline: no, not always. | 18:07 |
| tushyd | anyone know of a TV tuner that can do ATSC/NTSC/PAL? I travel between Europe and the US a lot | 18:08 |
| mintsoup | thanks i'll try it out | 18:08 |
| |Torg| | YellowOnline: in a gernal sence, yes. If lspci lists the device but dmesg doez not tell you it loaded a driver its either you have no driver for it, need no driver for it (its buitin) or the driver simply is not verbose enough to anounce it presence | 18:08 |
| paolino | anyone can tell me the right words to google for setting up a gateway in gutsy ? | 18:08 |
| rich12345 | Can anyone help a newb get from x window after install to desktop? | 18:08 |
| hotmonkeyluv | rich12345: type startx | 18:09 |

| zoobox | fyrestrtr, imho utf-8 is a bad cross between 7bit ascii and unicode. 7bit ascii is perhaps enough for english, and unicode is needed for chinese (even though chinese prefer ucs2/utf-16 because utf8 takes more place).... | 18:13 |

| hoarycripple | new2linux, what does 'ls' in that directory give you? anything that lools like an xorg log? | 18:37 |
| sahak | fyrestrtr: Fedora. and the Fedora installer detects a "cirrus" video card (which agrees with QEMU man page). | 18:37 |
| hoarycripple | new2linux, cd /var/log | 18:37 |
| hoarycripple | new2linux, ls Xorg* | 18:37 |

| Ann | DRebellion thank you, then i will try it, if my pc fucks up, i hope to still find u here | 18:37 |
| fyrestrtr | sahak: then what's the problem you are facing? The video card difference is not a factor in the speed of the guest OS | 18:37 |

| riaal | Does anyone think it can be a software failure that makes my ubuntu server reboot every 7-12 day? | 18:39 |
| kodge | hoarycripple: Could it be that I don't have a file to put into the audio_TS folder? Only the video_Ts bit? | 18:39 |

| riaal | fyrestrtr: how come? I had memtest running for 2 days, no error, tested cpu burn at 100% for 2h | 18:39 |
| YellowOnline | darkblue_B: you need to go to System -> Administration -> Login Window | 18:40 |
| hoarycripple | kodge, doesn't matter, all you need is the proper dvd structure, meaning, AUDIO_TS and VIDEO_TS and the subfiles in those dirs. AUDIO_TS can be empty. k3b will happily burn those onto dvd | 18:40 |
| ed_ | hotmonkeyluv: the website you gave me says to use ndiswrapper, and i dont have it | 18:40 |

| kodge | hoarycripple: Burn the avi onto a dvd film, I wasnt sure that you had to convert it to any other file? If so, how do I do that? | 18:42 |
| hoarycripple | new2linux, try sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start | 18:42 |
| riaal | DRebellion: any tips? It dies like the power is lost, so I figured they would be blank | 18:42 |
| riaal | DRebellion: I know, but there is a lot of logs | 18:42 |
| riaal | what logs is worth checking when the system keeps rebooting? | 18:42 |
| riaal | anyone? | 18:42 |
| DRebellion | riaal: look at the ones that seem suuitable | 18:42 |
| ed_ | hotmunkyluv: i downloaded it....now how do i install | 18:42 |
| hoarycripple | kodge, so my understanding is that you are trying to burn an avi onto a dvd so that it will be playable in any dvd player | 18:42 |
| Ann | DRebellion how does one connect to internet with ubuntu? with adsl i mean? | 18:42 |
| hoarycripple | kodge, right? | 18:42 |
| darkblue_B | Do you think leaving the VNC port open is a security risk? | 18:42 |
| kodge | hoarycripple: Correct | 18:42 |
| hotmonkeyluv | ed_: there should be a readme file | 18:43 |
| DRebellion | Ann: do you have a router? | 18:43 |
| hoarycripple | kodge, if that is the case, you need to convert the avi into DVD format | 18:43 |
| Ann | Yes | 18:43 |

| new2linux | hoary how do i restart linux because none of my commands are doing anyhting anymore | 18:43 |
| hoarycripple | kodge, which are linux specific....will apply to ubuntu as well as other distros | 18:43 |
| YellowOnline | darkblue> anything open is a risk imho | 18:43 |
| DRebellion | Ann: just connect up normally | 18:43 |
| ejer | darkblue_B: yes! | 18:43 |
| |Torg| | darkblue_B: leaving any port open is a security risk | 18:43 |
| fyrestrtr | riaal: so its not applications | 18:43 |
| hoarycripple | new2linux, sudo shutdown -r now | 18:43 |
| riaal | fyrestrtr: ofc, I know its supose to work, mine had over 4 mount uptime | 18:43 |
| Ann | DRebellion what about dial up? | 18:43 |

| |Torg| | hotmonkeyluv: tar files are tape archives, ala old school way to write to tape. It is not compressed, not one tiny little bit. Gzip and Bzaip are two of many compression propgrams, hence a tar.gz, tgz or tar,bz file is a compressed tar file | 18:51 |
| DRebellion | fyrestrtr: no. you go read man tar. I am _telling_ you that tar is not compressed. | 18:51 |

| SubOne | Can anyone help me troubleshoot my sound? It was working, but then I closed my media player and reopened and now no sound... no sound anywhere | 18:52 |
| |Torg| | hotmonkeyluv: Linux tar has gzip buildin, or you can gzip -cd <file> | tar xvf - | 18:53 |
| hoarycripple | kodge, it is not a single file. you basically take the avi, convert it into a DVD compliant mpeg, and then split that mpeg into separate VOBs | 18:53 |
| hotmonkeyluv | |Torg| interesting (the stuff you learn in irc is amazing) | 18:53 |
| ejer | arrg: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java?highlight=%28java%29#head-7f353d2f3fb1a09aac09cf1caee565e897319306 | 18:53 |
| |Torg| | hence tar zxvf means unzip, extract, be verbose, this file | 18:53 |
| hoarycripple | kodge, then you stick those VOBs into the VIDEO_TS dir | 18:53 |
| arrrghhh | so does anyone know how to remote into a current session instead of creating a new one? | 18:53 |

| |Torg| | hotmonkeyluv: check out cups, if you want one to be a print spooler, ldp, if you want both to be able to print but dont care about spooler just install the printer | 18:55 |
| fyrestrtr | arrrghhh: its a screen manager. | 18:55 |
| harveyd | I have an oki c3300 which seems to be recognised, but printing fails | 18:55 |

| arrrghhh | uhm | 18:55 |
| fyrestrtr | arrrghhh: you run something in screen and then can reattach to that same session later. | 18:56 |

| Nicolaidis | i need to install flash player on amd64...any help? | 18:58 |
| arrrghhh | well that sounds too easy, i already tried to use vnc | 18:58 |
| |Torg| | hotmonkeyluv: opena browser and in it put http://127.0.1.1:631 | 18:58 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !flashissues | 18:58 |
| 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. | 18:58 |
| arrrghhh | i couldn't get it to work, so i used an nx server (which tunnels over ssh, which i like) | 18:58 |
| Logan428 | I'm running Feisty, and I have no sound output from my motherboard (sound hardware works fine) | 18:59 |
| kurugah | hello, i want 2 move my /home from my sd card to / and have some problems anyone willing 2 assist me? | 18:59 |
| arrrghhh | i'd LOVE to use the nx server to do it... but i'll use x11vnc if i have to | 18:59 |
| penars | how do you autostart a certain application in ubuntu (gnome) | 18:59 |
| ejer | arrrghhh: I do this 'ssh remotemachine -L 5900:localhost:5900' , then start x11vnc, then on local machine: vncviewer localhost:0 | 18:59 |
| Pici | !startup | penars | 18:59 |
| ubotu | penars: To add programs to start up when you log into your Gnome session go to System>Preferences>Sessions and use the Startup Programs tab.

| |Torg| | ejer: why in the world do you want to do that? simply ssh -Y and display it locally | 19:00 |
| arrrghhh | ejer: although i have to ask, why the "vncviewer localhost:0"? | 19:00 |
| ejer | arrrghhh: because you forwarded her port to your machine for security | 19:00 |
| Nicolaidis | thank you | 19:00 |
| |Torg| | hotmonkeyluv: then you probbly do not have cups installed. that or its not running | 19:00 |

| ejer | alanbshepard70: if you installed it wrong or more than once, you may need to reinstall it and remove again, what keeps popping up anyways? | 19:23 |
| unop_ | jacob_, before you do that you should verify that drivers exist for the adapter and that you have tried installing them, when reporting a bug, attach the procedure you took to install the drivers and what specifically failed | 19:23 |
| alanbshepard70 | coz_: they are gone from synaptic but during the boot process I see the package names like vmware and parprouted show up and try to configure | 19:23 |
| B-rabbit | fatih, so is Q-type and F type the same language? | 19:23 |
| neverblue | Kurcz, did you use 'alsamixer' ? | 19:23 |

| bkar | Kurcz-> thats a mystery for lots, we have allmost same issues, no sound, you are number 757 | 19:23 |
| alanbshepard70 | coz_: ok | 19:23 |
| neverblue | kr00lplatinum, do you notice with alsamixer running, what the 'switch' mutes ? that might give you a hint | 19:24 |
| fatih | B-rabbit: Yes | 19:24 |
| neverblue | xange, well, you didnt say that, but what I said will work | 19:24 |

| ubotu | It's ok, I can't stay mad at you. | 19:25 |
| neverblue | repeating a question can sometimes be necessary bkar | 19:25 |
| ejer | Sound: From command line: Open a terminal window and launch alsamixer then make sure sound is unmuted and that the volume is turned up. Unmute everything, sometimes a muted channel will be the problem, even if the description doesn't seem immediately relevant. | 19:25 |
| kr00lplatinum | neverblue: you didn't say anything... | 19:25 |
| neverblue | if you say so kr00lplatinum | 19:26 |

| KrAsHeR | i've read in some foruns that the r8180, driver loaded by 7.10 on boot for wireless cards, causes a hard lock in the system... any possibility of disabling it on live-cd boot up process? | 19:30 |

| peabody | vidsan: Okay, so Ubuntu is the only thing on that machine...you've got a grub problem probably. | 19:32 |
| YellowOnline | hmz, is there a command like lssata? | 19:34 |

| peabody | vidsan: Are you able to press esc and get the grub menu? | 19:35 |
| |Torg| | YellowOnline: try cat /proc/scsi/sg/device_strs | 19:35 |
| pihhan | do someone know how to add own global shortcuts to gnome desktop in gutsy? | 19:35 |
| PriceChild | pihhan, system > preferences > keyboard shortcuts | 19:35 |
| pihhan | i want place there brighntess on, but havent found it in shortcuts | 19:36 |
| peabody | pihhan: Preferences -> keyboard shortcuts | 19:36 |
| ejer | YellowOnline: you may like 'ls /dev/disk/by-path/' as well | 19:36 |
| quimbie | I'm having too many glitches w/ gutsy, anyone know where to find iso of *studio* feisty anymore? | 19:36 |
| YellowOnline | oh, yes ejer, I forgot about that | 19:36 |
| YellowOnline | but that doesn't do what I want | 19:36 |
| pihhan | PriceChild, if my shortcuts is not htere, can i add my own? | 19:36 |
| ejer | that lists recognized disks | 19:36 |
| YellowOnline | because I'm lookin for a drive he doesn't recognize | 19:36 |
| === tyczek is now known as Tyczek | ||
| PriceChild | pihhan, yes, but not with that | 19:37 |
| === martin_ is now known as Slade^^ | ||
| peabody | 19:37 | |
| vidsan | peabody: havent tried. But I dont suspect Ill be able to | 19:37 |
| quimbie | I tried Ubuntu Studio's site, but their previous version ended up just being regular feisty fawn. | 19:38 |
| _nmap | how can i remove a non-empty dir with rmdir? | 19:38 |
| Slade^^ | so, I installed ubuntu, everything went fine and when I ran ubuntu I can't install ANY program from add/remove as it says it cannot support mu comp. architecture which is 32bit and is supported !!?!! So, what is the problem? | 19:38 |
| |Torg| | YellowOnline: if /proc/scsi/sg does not have it it is a hardware issue, firmaware on the disk, controller not being recognised, etc. Like ejer said it will shopw up in dev if and when your system realises its a disk and creates a device, sata falls under scsi | 19:38 |
| neverblue | xange, apropos is a handle little command you might want to look @ :) | 19:38 |
| travisat | _nmap: you don't | 19:38 |
| Starnestommy | _nmap: rm -rf directory? | 19:38 |
| pihhan | PriceChild, how and where then? | 19:38 |
| travisat | _nmap: use rm | 19:38 |
| _nmap | humm. ok. | 19:38 |
| _nmap | thanks | 19:38 |
| quimbie | ?nmap ... rm -r <dirname> | 19:38 |
| PriceChild | pihhan, I would assume xmodmap would let you do it | 19:38 |
| ejer | |Torg|: are sata disks not handled by libata now? | 19:39 |
| * DRebellion thinks the channel topic needs to be updated to recognize the new !flash factoid (replace with !flashissues) | 19:39 | |
| YellowOnline | hold on, this is tough with my 10+ partitions on 6 HDs :-/ | 19:39 |
| |Torg| | ejer yes but it adds it to the scsi device chain | 19:39 |
| peabody | vidsan: in that case, it may not be a matter of re-installing grub, you may have to see if there's some mismatch between the way linux sets up your devices and how grub sees them. Wish I had better advice than that. | 19:39 |
| Slade^^ | I installed ubuntu with dual boot, windows works fine | 19:39 |

| DRebellion | Pici: ;) | 19:40 |
| Slade^^ | but when I try to install some programs from add/remove it says my architecture is not supported!!! | 19:40 |
| Slade^^ | I have 32bit system | 19:40 |
| vidsan | peabody: any suggestions as to which files to look in? | 19:40 |
| Slade^^ | and 32bit ubuntu install cd | 19:40 |
| quimbie | Anyone know where to get an iso of ubuntu studio *fesity*? Having too many glitches w/ gutsy | 19:40 |
| Slade^^ | feisty you mean | 19:40 |
| peabody | vidsan: I'm pretty sure menu.lst has the boot parameters there | 19:40 |
| quimbie | :) indeed | 19:41 |
| ejer | "but it's recommended to wait for an official fix." < but this is hardy from the bug report... long time to wait | 19:41 |
| Slade^^ | please answer | 19:41 |
| pihhan | PriceChild, xmodmap does connect raw scancode with symbol for X server, it does not help me | 19:41 |
| ejer | quimbie: ubuntu studio is the same as ubuntu with some extra stuff installed and dif theme, doubtful it will correct glitches | 19:41 |
| Slade^^ | im going to restart | 19:41 |
| Slade^^ | so I'll see | 19:41 |
| pihhan | PriceChild, what i need is do somewhere some symbol keypress execute some command | 19:41 |
| PriceChild | pihhan, it gives more than simple keys... you can assign things like "open default mail" so i would imagine what you want too. | 19:42 |
| Slade^^ | an example is "AdBlock extension for Firefox/Iceweasel cannot be installed on your computer type (i386)" | 19:42 |
| Slade^^ | and so on... | 19:42 |
| PriceChild | pihhan, not 100% sure, but worth checking to see if there is one for the brightness for you | 19:42 |
| ejer | Slade^^: try typing 'uname -m' in a terminal | 19:43 |
| sluggo | quimbie: is feisty 7.04 ? | 19:43 |
| quimbie | Slade: what version of windows? | 19:43 |
| pihhan | PriceChild, i havent found any, volume +- is present, brightnes does not | 19:43 |
| ejer | looks like you installed 64bit but somehow you have 32bit packages? | 19:43 |
| Slade^^ | huh, it says i686 !!!! | 19:43 |
| === js`` is now known as [js] | ||
| PriceChild | pihhan, I don't know then sorry. | 19:43 |
| Slade^^ | and I surely have 32 bit system | 19:43 |
| Pici | Slade^^: What kernel doesn uname -a say you are using? | 19:43 |
| Slade^^ | ?? | 19:44 |
| PriceChild | Slade^^, 686 is 32bit | 19:44 |
| Pici | Slade^^: 2.6.22-???? | 19:44 |
| PriceChild | Slade^^, x86 is 32bit... x86_64 is 64bit | 19:44 |
| Slade^^ | 2.6.22-14 | 19:44 |
| pihhan | PriceChild, thanks anyway | 19:44 |
| quimbie | Ah, ok. nm | 19:44 |
| YellowOnline | grmblz, |Torg|, I can't find it in linux, but windows can't... | 19:44 |
| YellowOnline | * Windows can | 19:44 |
| Slade^^ | Pici | 19:44 |
| Pici | Slade^^: After the 14, what does it say? generic? | 19:44 |
| ejer | YellowOnline: have you checked if that card is even supported? | 19:44 |
| Slade^^ | yes | 19:45 |
| Slade^^ | pici | 19:45 |
| |Torg| | ejer: think of SATA, along SCSI (as in transport not data) and FC, they are the low level scsi drivers, on them sits the command set on on that sits the data packets. you could say SATA is a type of SCSI drive (as you coul say FC is a type of SCSI as wll) | 19:45 |
| YellowOnline | ejer> oh, I'm no longer talking of the RAID card, I found a driver for it | 19:45 |
| Pici | Slade^^: Can you just paste your entire `uname -a` line here? | 19:45 |
| |Torg| | YellowOnline: did you mean you can see it in Windows and not in Linux? | 19:45 |
| Slade^^ | Linux martin-desktop 2.6.22-14-generic #1 SMP Sun Oct 14 23:05:12 GMT 2007 i686 GNU/Linux | 19:45 |
| YellowOnline | ejer> I'm talking about my 5th onboard SATA port, which has a different controller than the other 4 | 19:45 |
| ejer | ah sorry | 19:45 |
| YellowOnline | |Torg|: yes | 19:45 |
| |Torg| | YellowOnline: what controller are the SATA drives connected to? | 19:46 |
| vidsan | peabody: what I dont understand, I how to figure out which drive f.ex. hd0,0) is. Which hd?,?) is sdb1? | 19:46 |
| Pici | Slade^^: That should be fine for 32bit i386 compatable packages. | 19:46 |
| Slade^^ | and why doesn't it work? | 19:46 |
| peabody | vidsan: frankly, that's a good question :), grub drives me nuts personally. Let me see if I can find the grub online faq/guide. | 19:46 |
| DRebellion | Slade^^: you don't even need add/remove programs to install adblock for firefox. you can install it off the mozilla plugins site. | 19:47 |
| YellowOnline | so I have 4 SATA connections through ICH9R that work, and 1 SATA connection through a Marvell 88SE6111 that doesn't work | 19:47 |
| dame | can i upgrade from ubuntu 5.10 to some newer version? | 19:47 |
| YellowOnline | unfortunately, the latter port is nowhere documenten | 19:47 |
| Slade^^ | DRebellion: that was an exapmle | 19:47 |
| DRebellion | dame: of course | 19:47 |
| rsk | dame: yes | 19:47 |
| YellowOnline | *documented | 19:47 |
| dame | how? | 19:47 |
| |Torg| | vidsan: primary master ide is hda, primary slave, hdb, secondary master hdc, secondary slave hdd, sda and on are based upon target id of the scsi device (if its sata there all 0) | 19:47 |
| Slade^^ | it says that for every program I found | 19:47 |
| rsk | dame: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 19:48 |
| DRebellion | Can someone remind me of the difference between && and ; ? | 19:48 |
| |Torg| | YellowOnline: before SCSI can see a disk in linux (in Windows for that matter) it needs driver for the controller, in linux these are genrally named sata_something for who makes the chipset | 19:48 |
| Lunar_Lamp | rsk, that will not upgrade to a newer version of ubuntu... | 19:48 |
| Slade^^ | "Adept Manager cannot be installed on your computer type (i386). Amarok cannot be installed on your computer type (i386)." etc etc... | 19:48 |
| peabody | |Torg|: those are Linux device names aren't they? Grub's are different I think | 19:48 |
| Slade^^ | please I really need this | 19:49 |
| Pici | Slade^^: I'm thinking. | 19:49 |
| |Torg| | YellowOnline: and it it entirely posible, even likly, you can find a sata cotnroller that will not work in linux (becase there is no driver) and work only in windows (as it is conusmer grade hardware) | 19:49 |
| unstable | What is a simple program with Ubuntu to make an iso9660 image from a DVD movie, that has css on it? | 19:49 |
| unstable | It's DVD9, I don't want to re-encode, I want to keep it DVD9 | 19:49 |
| * Ann bye bye all | 19:49 | |
| |Torg| | peabody: yes | 19:49 |
| ejer | dame: try System -> Administration -> Update manager | 19:49 |
| YellowOnline | |Torg|: well, that was the problem with my raid card. I knew it was a driver isue through comparing the lspci outpout with dmesg. that's why I was looking for lssata | 19:49 |
| DRebellion | !illegal | unstable | 19:50 |
| ubotu | unstable: piracy discussion and other questionably legal practices are not welcome in the Ubuntu channels. Please take this discussion elsewhere or abstain from it altogether. This includes linking to pirated software, music and video. Also see !guidelines and !o4o | 19:50 |
| ejer | even if lssata existed, it would only list what it knew about | 19:50 |
| vidsan | Torg: I need to find out if sdb1 is hd0,0) or 0,1 or whatever | 19:50 |
| dame | ejer, it says my system is up to date :D. I reloaded the package informations and still no upgrade for me | 19:50 |
| |Torg| | also YellowOnline, it is VERY likly what you have is not a real raid card but one that uses teh CPU for its raid calulcations, refered to as fakeraid | 19:50 |
| YellowOnline | well, lspci could tell me there was a raid card without having the driver for it. I assumed the same would be possible with the sata driver | 19:50 |
| julle- | to unzip a tar.gz file, what do i write? | 19:51 |
| ejer | dame: in a terminal try 'gksudo update-manager -c -d' | 19:51 |
| |Torg| | YellowOnline: I say that becase unless you paid like $500 for the thing I REALLY doubt it oes its own raid | 19:51 |
| DRebellion | julle-: tar xzvf <file> | 19:51 |
| blackvd | anyone know the channel name for avant window manager? | 19:51 |
| julle- | DRebellion Thank you very much | 19:51 |
| rsk | #awm maybe | 19:51 |
| blackvd | naw, tried it | 19:51 |
| blackvd | i was pretty sure thats what i used last time too | 19:52 |
| YellowOnline | |Torg|: oh, yes, it is, but I only use it as a pass-through to be able to access my PATA drives. but anyway, that probles is solved and this problem right now is an onboard controller (on an MSI P35 Platinum) | 19:52 |
| YellowOnline | *problem | 19:52 |
| |Torg| | so YellowOnline: first get a driver for the card, you may need to complie it as a module agsint your kernel headders. then see if you can get the drives to load | 19:52 |
| lillypad | i've got a question about installing ubuntu | 19:52 |
| WebLOCH | Hi guys I installed 7.10 the other day and did an immediate update, upon doing so it would seem that 'radeon' broke... I get an error message from Xorg telling me that the DRM module could not be insterted... I cant seem to find any useful infomration on why this is. Secondly I tried fglrx and that seemed to load fine, but the resolution it starts in is not supported by my card/screen, and I cant find a way to change it. Any help is appreciated... | 19:52 |

| ejer | dame: gksudo 'update-manager -c -d' | 19:53 |
| YellowOnline | |Torg|: what don't understand is that gutsy will load a driver for PATA through that chip but not for SATA (so the chip is at least partly supported) | 19:53 |
| lillypad | I can't get ubuntu installed on my desktop because it is not recognizing either my graphics card (8800 GT) or my monitor (Acer). Can anyone help me? | 19:53 |

| ejer | YellowOnline: i am not following closely, but BIOS is configured right for this? sometimes you can only have one or another... | 19:55 |
| |Torg| | YellowOnline: this is a builtin card? who makes the motherboard? what model is it? and do you impliclty know the SATA chip id? | 19:55 |
| dame | ejer, it seems that i cannot upgrade. it says that i cannot upgrade some packeges and i need to run dist-upgrade. dist-upgrade says no update available | 19:55 |
| YellowOnline | |Torg| the 4 purple ones use ICH9R and work, the blue one uses 88SE6111 and doesn't. onboard PATA works through the same chip. | 19:55 |
| WebLOCH | DRebellion: is this a resolved issue then ? | 19:55 |
| ejer | dame: this is a very old version of ubuntu | 19:55 |
| DRebellion | WebLOCH: there was an issue with x in the repos recently | 19:56 |
| benste | hä? | 19:56 |
| |Torg| | YellowOnline: I assue you they do not use the same chip and the reason it works in Windows is that your motherboard came with a driver CD | 19:56 |
| cylex | lillypad: Did you make sure, that onboard video card is set to auto under the motherboard settings | 19:56 |
| YellowOnline | ejer> I removed the PATA exactly for that reason (and that's why I use the PCI RAID ard for that) | 19:56 |
| mindmedic | Why does "tar x" leave permissions intact while "tar xp" sets group & others permissions to 0? Shouldn't -p preserve permissions? Concatenation was done via "tar cf". All commands executed as root. | 19:56 |

| DRebellion | unstable: it is questionably legal in some countries. | 20:01 |

| unstable | What is a simple program with Ubuntu to make an iso9660 image from a DVD movie, that has css on it? It's DVD9, I don't want to re-encode, I want to keep it DVD9. what software can do this in ubuntu repositories? | 20:01 |

| MrPiracy2 | pici: oh | 20:02 |
| mindmedic | ejer: i used -p on the target machine for extracting ... however all permissions where garbled ... -x alone did the job .. i don't know why though | 20:02 |
| ejer | MrPiracy2: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=5904 | 20:02 |
| |Torg| | YellowOnline: like Is aid it was a test, can you get a driver loaded for sata at all? | 20:02 |
| mindmedic | the manpage suggests the exact opposite behaviour | 20:02 |
| MrPiracy2 | DRebellion: cannod empty ~/.Trash/drm it's a directory | 20:03 |
| |Torg| | YellowOnline: you can also try modpeone sata_mv | 20:03 |
| unstable | DRebellion: And the countries where it is illegal are corrupt, and the media companies bribe/have control of government, so I don't think #ubuntu should be yielding to them regardless. but the fact is in my country(Netherlands) it is legal, and secondly, you have software in the ubuntu repositories that supports it, so it seems hypocritical for it not to be talked about in #ubuntu | 20:03 |
| |Torg| | err modprobe | 20:03 |
| YellowOnline | |Torg|: I have 4 other SATA devices | 20:03 |
| ejer | mindmedic: because you don't want to ignore umask | 20:03 |

| dame | ejer, i dont think newer version of grub will work coz i tried 3 different new distributions and grub was making me probnlems | 20:04 |

| peabody | unstable: You can just try and read the device file directly to a file using the dd command: dd if=/dev/cdrom of=my.iso | 20:04 |
| unstable | peabody: It has CSS, I want to remove that. | 20:05 |
| DRebellion | peabody: unstable: won't work | 20:05 |
| mindmedic | yeah, thats why i understand that -x alone works ... however that doesn't explain why -xp changes permissions | 20:05 |
| dame | ejer, it was giving me errors like it cant find /boot/grub/stage1 and simillar | 20:05 |
| ejer | mindmedic: if you ignore umask, you change ownership of file | 20:05 |
| mindmedic | it should have no effect | 20:05 |
| YellowOnline | |Torg|: this is a topic about the same problem if you're interested: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-490874.html | 20:05 |
| |Torg| | YellowOnline: then I am confused. I thought you had a SATA drive that does not show up, it was conncted to the onboard SATA port that is at 00:1f.5 and you did not have a driver loaded for it. | 20:05 |
| peabody | unstable: I think you'd have to decode the vob files and then make your own iso. | 20:05 |
| DRebellion | peabody: yes but you can't get the vob files off the disk without defeating css first!!! | 20:06 |

| unstable | thanks for the suggestions all | 20:07 |
| pandorange | Hi all, I was just wondering. I have sound only in the login and "Login window preferences" . I am new to ubuntu and find it quite confusing... | 20:07 |
| unstable | I'll just do mkisofs after, and burn the image | 20:07 |
| YellowOnline | |Torg|: the controller I need doesn't show up | 20:07 |
| |Torg| | YellowOnline: I was only guessing what the port was, quite simply if it dows not show up in lspci it means it was never enumerated to the pci bus. It is a lower level problem then "I cant see disk". It generally mans I cant talk to bridge chip, bus master is bad, I have bios set wrong, etc | 20:08 |
| peabody | pandorange: Do you see a speaker icon in the upper right hand corner? | 20:08 |
| pandorange | Yes, and my alsa isn't set up. but that is not my problem, how come I have sound??? | 20:09 |
| peabody | pandorange: ??? is that a problem? | 20:09 |
| pandorange | When you don't understand, it is.... | 20:09 |
| pandorange | It seems illogical? | 20:10 |
| YellowOnline | mhz, the BIOS might be the problem, but I have no clue what to look for. It nowhere says "use SATA for marvell" or "enable marvell sata controller". The only thing I see is for the other controller to work IDE/RAID or AHCI | 20:10 |
| ejer | alsa is installed and setup by default | 20:10 |
| peabody | pandorange: So, you're upset that you have sound working on your computer? Do you want to mute it? | 20:10 |
| DRebellion | peabody: it is pointless to make fun of people's typos, and not helpful to the channel or their problem. | 20:10 |
| VeganZombie | GRAINS.... | 20:10 |
| peabody | DRebellion: Dude, chill, I seriously didn't know that was a typo | 20:11 |
| |Torg| | pandorange: just becase your sound works and you didnt set it up does not mean there is a proble, the install for the alsa package will atempt to locate your sound hardware and configure it at install. Its not a mystery | 20:11 |
| pandorange | Nope, I wan't to get it working properly, yet before I do so , I wouldn't mind understanding how come I have sound | 20:11 |
| ejer | lots o alsa info here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Linux_Sound_Architecture | 20:12 |
| |Torg| | pandorange: its also lily it set it up in a way you did not want (like default to 2ch, muted at start) | 20:12 |
| pandorange | My alsa mixer doesn't work, and I get error messages | 20:12 |
| pandorange | The fact I have sound, lets me know, my card works | 20:12 |
| dzc | hi, everybody ;) | 20:12 |
| |Torg| | pandorange: or to be more exact I have two cards that startup muted, no matter what, every time (I use a rc script to unmute them at startup) | 20:12 |
| ejer | i think you could change that using alsa-utils | 20:13 |
| YellowOnline | brb rebooting to bios | 20:13 |
| pandorange | how? | 20:13 |
| uk-male | i need an ultra simple ultra light dns server | 20:13 |
| |Torg| | ejer I would think so too, but you cant, its not a major issue tho | 20:13 |
| ejer | uk-male: dnsmasq | 20:13 |
| uk-male | ejer, isn't that caching only? | 20:13 |
| pandorange | "00:10.1 Audio device: nVidia Corporation MCP51 High Definition Audio (rev a2)" is my message with lspci | 20:14 |

| levander | I've got a hard disk partition in fstab that gets mounted when I reboot. An icon shows up on the desktop for this partition. How do I prevent this icon from showing up? | 20:15 |
| DRebellion | pure`eigenVector: just umount it after ubuntu mounts it | 20:15 |
| geefour | well, I've done that but when I do apt-get update and apt-get upgrade, it seems to want to install so I removed ekiga as well | 20:15 |
| |Torg| | uk-male: you said lightwight, not heavyweight and bloated | 20:15 |
| DRebellion | levander: move the mount point out of /media | 20:15 |
| lencho | join #ubuntu-es | 20:15 |

| WebLOCH | DRebellion, Im in u nder some awful resolution but I cannot tell which driver is actually in use... | 20:16 |
| uk-male | ldap is heavy? | 20:16 |
| DRebellion | pure`eigenVector: probably | 20:16 |
| levander | DRebellion: The mount point is /mnt/multimedia... | 20:16 |
| |Torg| | ldap is a directory, using it to store dns entires is overkill | 20:16 |
| DRebellion | levander: oh... | 20:16 |
| uk-male | i am using it for everything else | 20:16 |
| uk-male | seems logical | 20:16 |
| |Torg| | its great if you have an entire enterpirse to use, but for home use its WAY overkill | 20:16 |
| dgjones | levander, in a terminal run "gconf-editor" , go to apps->nautilus->desktop and uncheck the volumes visible box | 20:16 |

| iKap | k | 20:18 |
| levander | dgjones: I'm looking at that box now. If I uncheck it, will even volumes mounted in /media not have an icon on the desktop? What about CD's I insert? I definitely want those CD's to have an icon on the desktop. | 20:18 |

| uk-male | i am building my game hosting platform, so subscriber info is best kept in ldap, no point in running bind etc | 20:18 |
| dgjones | levander, the only downside is that it also won't show all mount points on the desktop (including removable usb keys etc) your other option is to change you mount point from /media/xxx to /mnt/xxx, anything mounted in /media puts the mount point on the desktop, if you change, it won't | 20:18 |
| levander | dgjones: The mount point is already /mnt/multimedia. It's already out of /media. | 20:19 |

| white_eagle | can that be the problem Pici ? | 20:21 |
| dgjones | levander, that seems strange to me, i had the similar situation and my only way was to create a /mnt/multimedia and change the mount point, i'm not sure why yours shows up on the desktop | 20:21 |

| MM2 | I have this HD (from DBV-PVR) attached to /dev/hdc, but how I can access it in Ubuntu 7.10 with /dev/sdc's? How to mount it? And how to find out partitions on that disk? | 20:32 |
| akaihen | anyone knows if there's a library to install to open UFS cds | 20:32 |
| DRebellion | tushyd: use the vga= option on the kernel line in /boot/grub/menu.lst | 20:32 |
| levander | DRebellion: Eventually he'll reboot and come back I bet. | 20:32 |
| homecable | startx | 20:32 |

| pepperjack | tushyd: typically youll put a line like vga=713 in the kernel line of /boot/grub/menu.lst | 20:33 |

| bod_ | lavender or sudo reboot | 20:35 |
| Cyrus25801 | can use linux as a PABX system with 1 telephone line without anyother hardware | 20:35 |
| levander | bod_: No way he knows about the reboot command. | 20:35 |
| bod_ | SR71-Blackbird, what did i kill? | 20:35 |
| bod_ | oh | 20:35 |
| DRebellion | Pulpie: i think you fail to understand what ping is. you can ping a computer. | 20:35 |
| Cpudan80 | Pulpie: You cant | 20:35 |
| bod_ | SR71-Blackbird, wrong person sorry | 20:35 |
| tumbleweed05 | just curious. i have a sony laptop with a intel GMA 950 integrated graphics. could that run ubuntu and compiz fine? | 20:35 |
| Cpudan80 | That's not how ping works | 20:35 |
| Cpudan80 | Looks like DRebellion beat me to the punch line :-) | 20:35 |
| MrPiracy2 | Cyrus25801: nope | 20:36 |
| tumbleweed05 | anyone? | 20:36 |
| DRebellion | Cpudan80: i is teh network h4xx0r | 20:36 |
| tumbleweed05 | gma 950? compiz? | 20:36 |
| Cpudan80 | Pulpie: You ping a computer to see if it is alive, you port scan a computer to see what "doors" it has open | 20:36 |
| mindmedic | Does tar behave differently when extracting from STDIN? Permissions get lost when I extract a file piped from netcat (nc -l -p 2000 | tar xp). However if I write the data to a file (nc -l -p 2000 > backup.tar) and extract them afterwards (tar xpf backup.tar) permissions are correct. | 20:36 |
| bod_ | lavender whats the shutdown commnad?,.,. sudo shutdown -p? | 20:36 |
| MM2 | I attached a HDD, how I can access it's partitions? | 20:36 |
| MrPiracy2 | tumbleweed05: i have intel 946gz and it works, so i guess u will have no probs | 20:36 |
| Cyrus25801 | MrPiracy2: what would you need | 20:36 |
| tumbleweed05 | mrpiracy2: what the heck is a 946gz? | 20:37 |
| Cpudan80 | MM2: You have to mount them | 20:37 |
| DRebellion | MM2: figure out what its entries in /dev are and mount them. | 20:37 |
| Cyrus25801 | MrPiracy2: software and hardware | 20:37 |
| levander | bod_: I use 'shutdown -r now' to reboot, or 'shutdown -H now' to just shutdown. I think the shutdown command requires a time (the now above) argument. | 20:37 |
| MM2 | DRebellion: How I can figure that out? | 20:37 |
| Cpudan80 | MM2: What kind of HDD did you attach, and where did you attach it? | 20:37 |
| MrPiracy2 | tumbleweed05: my graphic card, it's older than urs | 20:37 |
| Cpudan80 | MM2: Ex. USB, SATA on 2nd port, etc | 20:37 |
| tumbleweed05 | alright cool. | 20:37 |

| DRebellion | Pulpie: ping <host> | 20:37 |
| DRebellion | Pulpie: ctrl+c to stop | 20:37 |
| MM2 | Cpudan80: IDE to sec slave, so it shoult be /dev/hdc, but ubuntu 7.10 has /dev/sdc... | 20:38 |

| Cpudan80 | MM2: the sd thing is correct, the standard changed | 20:38 |

| excalq | and they all seem to interoperate fairly well | 20:52 |

| Thornsberry | jeffMASTERflex, Well I can't even find the themes when I go to change them. It was a .tar.gz file and I extracted it and moved it to my usr/share/themes folder and when I go to change the appearance I can't find it. Is there a step I'm missing? | 21:04 |

| Seveas | LockesRabb, there are no icons on the desktop by default | 21:04 |

| LockesRabb | how would i do that | 21:07 |
| LockesRabb | @unop, how would i do that? | 21:07 |
| jtown | can i just ask a question, is it possible to access the files i have on the HD i use for windows? i cannot seem to mount it | 21:07 |
| unop | LockesRabb, press ALT+f2 - killall nautilus && nautilus | 21:07 |

| clubs | eh | 21:07 |
| unop | Symmetria, does fdisk -l pick them up? | 21:07 |
| clubs | what would it be | 21:07 |
| LockesRabb | icons are back | 21:08 |
| LockesRabb | the restart worked | 21:08 |

| pine | i have a xchat q, how do i disable being notified whenever someone logs on , logs out resp ???????? | 21:08 |
| LockesRabb | u know, every time i reboot or logout/login, i have to do killall gnome-panel and now killall nautilus && nautilus | 21:08 |
| LockesRabb | just to get panels and icons back | 21:08 |
| LockesRabb | any idea why this is the case? | 21:08 |
| pine | or rather joined and left channel ? | 21:08 |
| Cpudan80 | Anyone have any themese they recommend that are not orange/brown? | 21:08 |
| Seveas | pine, rightclick on a channel name and untick 'show join/part messages' | 21:09 |

| Seveas | !themes > Cpudan80 | 21:10 |
| unop | LockesRabb, perhaps you could repair nautilus - i doubt it works but worth a try - sudo apt-get install --reinstall nautilus gnome-session | 21:10 |
| LockesRabb | kk tryin that | 21:10 |
| DRebellion | clubs: because dev is short for devices | 21:10 |
| DRebellion | clubs: its probably /dev/sd<a/b/c/d> | 21:10 |
| elad` | Seveas, thanks. | 21:11 |
| Seveas | Symmetria, does dmesg tell you that the kernel picked them up at all? | 21:11 |
| unop | killown|away, the best thing to do is configure grub to be able to boot windows as well -- otherwise you need to use a windows CD to repair the MBR | 21:11 |
| papiculo_ | ok | 21:11 |

| Wanderer | Anyone used scponlyc ? | 21:17 |
| LockesRabb | @chazco, each software renders it differently using a default font, perhaps you can go into settings and tell it to use a specific font? | 21:17 |
| === wolly is now known as der_wolly | ||
| unop | chazco, thats a problem you will face with any proprietary document format - the methods to render the document is unclear and therfore it is up to the implementation to guess the best way - and that isnt always what you like | 21:17 |
| Symmetria | never mind there we go | 21:18 |
| LockesRabb | @unop, where's the boot up log? | 21:18 |
| chazco | unop - But the program im using can render it perfectly on Windows (Textmaker), but not on Linux (Textmaker)... i'm guessing its the fonts, but install the MS fonts makes it much, much worse | 21:18 |
| unop | LockesRabb, usually /var/log/{syslog,messages} | 21:18 |
| LockesRabb | @unop, thanks | 21:18 |
| unop | LockesRabb, you can use the gnome-system-log to view them | 21:19 |

| LockesRabb | @rufus, try compiz --replace && emerald --replace | 21:36 |
| LockesRabb | @stephen, u could try uninstalling gnome settings manager, then reinstall it? | 21:37 |

| kahrytan | Patchak➲ would would be apt-get install lame | 22:21 |
| NemesisUK | chaosrl, no never had those problems | 22:21 |
| pepperjack | sarthor: few diff ways. one is to simply remove the executable bit from the script like sudo chmod -x /etc/init.d/gdm the technicallly correct way is to i suppose sudo update-rc.d -f gdm remove then you could sudo update-rc.d -f gdm defaults to restore it. anyway once its set to not start if you use update-rc.d you can then just launch it with a sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart | 22:21 |

| astro76 | Naisenu: hmm dunno what that is, do ps aux | grep firefox, then kill all the resultant process IDs (except the one for the grep you just ran) | 22:22 |
| faern | Flare183, is it some settings to only allow to install from cd? | 22:23 |

| 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. | 22:41 |

| underwatercow | Does anyone know where evolution saves its stored passwords? | 22:50 |
| pine | ~/user/.evolution ? | 22:51 |
| syntaxerror55 | underwatercow, I suppose you looked in ~/.evolution | 22:51 |
| astro76 | underwatercow: not sure but look in gnome keyring | 22:51 |
| angah | hi..got this prob > http://jasper.pastebin.com/m4e0b5398 ..line 13 is pre-up iptables-restore < /etc/iptables.save | 22:52 |
| underwatercow | syntaxerror55, pine, astro76: I backup all files from .evolution and .gconf/apps/.evolution (I think it was), and it still doesn't have the saved passwords when I restore | 22:52 |
| angah | why? | 22:52 |
| angah | is use gutsy. | 22:52 |
| astro76 | underwatercow: as I said my guess would be gnome keyring | 22:52 |
| sarthor | pepperjack> i think the best way in ubuntu do disable gui mode we have to edit "/etc/X11/default-display-manager" and comment that line that telling gdm is the default display manager | 22:52 |
| underwatercow | astro76: Is that located elsewhere? | 22:52 |
| astro76 | underwatercow: system > admin > keyring manager | 22:53 |
| sarthor | pepperjack> thank you for helping me as well as others. | 22:53 |
| Starnestommy | angah: looks like an error in /etc/network/interfaces | 22:53 |
| angah | Starnestommy: ya iknow..anything wrong with this command pre-up iptables-restore < /etc/iptables.save ? | 22:54 |
| underwatercow | astro76: there is nothing there... | 22:54 |

| pine | angah: what does your /etc/interfaces file look like ????? | 22:55 |
| usr13_ | pine: I think it's /etc/network/interfaces | 22:55 |
| pine | yeah i mean /etc/network/interfaces | 22:56 |

| usr13_ | zoobox: no | 22:57 |
| astro76 | zoobox: apt-get source packagename | 22:58 |
| mrpockets | is Emerald theme manager installed by default, or where does one get it? | 22:58 |
| underwatercow | Anyone have any other ideas? I'm sure I found the evolution password file before... but I haven't the foggiest where I saw it... | 22:58 |
| usr13_ | zoobox: Sorry, I'm wrong. | 22:58 |

| syntaxerror55 | underwatercow: I booted into Ubuntu to try to find it for you. | 22:58 |
| zoobox | usr13_, wrong? | 22:59 |
| underwatercow | syntaxerror55: thanks, I would appreciate it | 22:59 |
| zoobox | yes I have checked the checbox source in the repos-dialog box and pressed reload | 22:59 |

| usr13_ | astro76: zoobox: Oh, it DOES download tarballs. Very good. "Learn something every day!" :) | 23:00 |
| zoobox | astro76: aha, I can't use synaptic to get the sourcecode and must apt-get source gcalctool instead ? | 23:01 |

| snow_ru | hi | 23:07 |
| Ace_NoOne | hi there! I just made a friend install Ubuntu - but after quite some painful research, it seems that dual monitors (especially with different resolutions) are still a huge issue | 23:07 |
| Ace_NoOne | can you guys confirm that, or are we just lost? | 23:07 |
| snow_ru | I want to use svn client. Which package I have to install ? | 23:07 |
| Flare183 | Ace_NoOne: your right have some issures | 23:08 |
| Flare183 | issues* | 23:08 |
| neverblue | Ace_NoOne, dual monitors are supports, matters what video card | 23:08 |
| Logan428 | I'm running Feisty, and have no sound output from the motherboard (all the hardware works fine). Can anyone help me? | 23:08 |
| Flare183 | neverblue is right | 23:08 |
| neverblue | s/supports/supported/ | 23:08 |
| Flare183 | !svn | snow_ru | 23:08 |
| ubotu | snow_ru: svn is Subversion: an open-source revision control system, which aims to be a compelling replacement for CVS. See http://subversion.tigris.org/ | 23:08 |
| Daenyth | Does anyone have any idea what could cause my issue | 23:08 |
| snow_ru | Flare183, I know about svn | 23:08 |
| neverblue | snow_ru, u use svn from command line | 23:08 |
| pine | daenyth:: you sure you are booting from cdrom ?????? bios | 23:08 |
| Ace_NoOne | "some issues"? so with some effort, it can be made to work in a fully satisfying fashion? | 23:08 |
| snow_ru | neverblue, yes, I want to use svn from the command line | 23:09 |
| neverblue | snow_ru, man svn | 23:09 |
| Flare183 | snow_ru: oh ok then use the termnial to use svn | 23:09 |
| snow_ru | hmm | 23:09 |
| snow_ru | I havne't got svn | 23:09 |
| Flare183 | man svn | 23:09 |

| neverblue | since u repeat everything I say :D | 23:09 |

| Flare183 | neverblue: oops sorry about that | 23:09 |
| snow_ru | Flare183, How can I man svn while I haven't got svn installed ????? | 23:09 |
| snow_ru | astro76, thank you | 23:10 |
| Flare183 | snow_ru: you can't i don't think | 23:10 |
| Daenyth | could the boot floppy be causing the issue? | 23:10 |
| Aloha | snow_ru, sudo apt-get install subversion | 23:10 |
| neverblue | 'aptitude search svn' should help you snow_ru | 23:10 |

| flush_ | http://allpr0h.eyh.ca/wtfx0r/ntp.conf thats my config file.. | 23:13 |
| Logan428 | Nemilar: No, just the one (it's the integrated chip on the motherboard) | 23:14 |

| flush_ | nemilar yea.. | 23:15 |
| flush_ | its the ntp.conf file from another box here running ubuntu 7.06 | 23:15 |

| flush_ | and it works on this one | 23:15 |
| nemilar | flush_: true, hmm | 23:15 |
| flush_ | why wouldnt it work on 7.10 | 23:15 |
| flush_ | cause its annoying man.. i dont know why it wont work | 23:15 |
| pine | Logan check : lspci | grep -i audio | 23:15 |
| nemilar | flush_: I'm assuming your driftfile is correct and all | 23:16 |
| pine | what does it say ? | 23:16 |
| flush_ | nemilar what is the driftfile.. sorry im such a newb | 23:16 |
| nemilar | flush_: the default location for the driftfile is /var/lib/ntp/ntp.drift | 23:16 |
| flush_ | nemilar copy | 23:16 |
| === piotrek is now known as PiotREC | ||
| flush_ | and whats the drif file used for ? | 23:17 |
| nemilar | flush_: do 'ls -l /etc/ntp/drift' | 23:17 |
| pine | Daenyth: sorry pal., not very good with hardware stuff, but try another installation cd | 23:17 |
| flush_ | nemilar /etc/ntp/ directory doesnt exist actually.. | 23:17 |
| Daenyth | mm | 23:17 |
| hummel | sdf | 23:18 |
| nemilar | flush_: it has somethingto do with the local clock's frequency, not entirely sure to be honest | 23:18 |
| Rufus | when i use nano to edit sources.list, where is it located | 23:18 |
| pine | usually for me some inst cds desnt work | 23:18 |
| flush_ | k | 23:18 |
| ppibburr | /etc/apt | 23:18 |
| ppibburr | rufus | 23:18 |
| nemilar | flush_: see if /var/lib/ntp/ntp.drift exists, and if so, set that as the drift file and restart ntpd | 23:18 |
| flush_ | nemilar just did it | 23:19 |
| flush_ | u think it should work okay from now ? | 23:19 |
| Rufus | thanks | 23:19 |
| nemilar | flush_: perhaps ;) it certainly fixed a problem with the configuration..whether it was the only problem, who's to say? ;) | 23:19 |
| === osxdude|mac is now known as osxdude | ||
| nemilar | flush_: ntpd doesn't always give me the most accurate clock, it usually goes off by about a minute per week for some reason. | 23:19 |

| flush_ | well | 23:20 |
| flush_ | cause the other ubuntu 7.06 box keeps sync 24/7 all year long.. just having some issues here | 23:20 |
| nemilar | so instead I have rdate run once a day, which keeps my clock in check | 23:20 |
| psilocyde | Can someone help me with putting my P/W 3945 card into monitor mode? | 23:20 |
| Logan428 | pine: Was set to Auto (option was that or disabled) so I left it as Auto, no effect | 23:20 |
| flush_ | i have ipcop box which gets clock from pool.ntp.org and then broadcast it on the lan | 23:20 |
| flush_ | rdate | 23:20 |
| pine | ok check: lspci | grep -i audio | 23:21 |
| nemilar | flush_: sounds like your setup should work | 23:21 |
| flush_ | ill read | 23:21 |
| nemilar | flush_: rdate isn't the preferred way of doing things...I just did it as a quick-fix | 23:21 |
| flush_ | yea it always worked.. since i dont know when, few weeks maybe it started to desynch | 23:21 |

| th0r | does anyone know of a third clock in ubuntu besides the hwclock and 'date'? | 23:27 |
| vbabiy_laptop | Hey does any use acx111 wireless card with ubuntu 7.10 | 23:27 |

| Logan428 | pine: Got alsa-tools, now what? | 23:28 |
| vbabiy_laptop | because i have one it show the wireless networks but it won't connect to any | 23:28 |
| lowlux | right now the damn X on the windows is gone. | 23:28 |
| vbabiy_laptop | bascule: no acx111 | 23:28 |
| kahrytan | Daenyth➲ Frustrating ain't it? | 23:28 |
| xomp | anyone know if it's possible to use a blackberry with ubuntu? Looks about impossible according to google.. I promise to install Windows 95 and abandon linux for ever if nobody helps me :) | 23:28 |
| ppibburr | the close 'x'? | 23:28 |
| lowlux | yes | 23:28 |
| bascule | vbabiy_laptop: doesn't work with network manager, have to go manual, I have acx100 | 23:28 |
| Daenyth | ta1: what panel? what de? what wm? did you change anything? | 23:28 |
| th0r | xomp you'll be happier with windows | 23:28 |
| Daenyth | meh | 23:28 |
| kahrytan | Anyone know how to set a default secret key AFTER keypair has been created? So I can sign something with --clearisng | 23:29 |
| ppibburr | lowlux: minimalize and restore are ther | 23:29 |
| vbabiy_laptop | bascule: and it work fine out of the box when you do it manually | 23:29 |
| lowlux | noting. | 23:29 |
| rsk | pine: i can't find it on packages.ubuntu.com either | 23:29 |
| bascule | vbabiy_laptop: sure | 23:29 |
| pine | do you have : alsamixer | 23:29 |
| lowlux | noting is there. | 23:29 |
| Nihilist_Nerd | Hello - I'm looking to build or download an Ubuntu LiveCD that can boot to RAM and found this article: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BootToRAM. Unfortunately, I'm not even an intermediate user yet, so I don't understand: what does it mean by '/casper' on my hard disk - that sounds like an absolute path to me, but I don't remember any /casper directory on my filesystem. Is it some special partition or something? | 23:29 |
| ppibburr | lowlux: the title bar is there? | 23:29 |
| === rodolfo_away is now known as rodolfo_ | ||
| pine | sudo alsamixer | 23:29 |
| lowlux | no. | 23:29 |
| vbabiy_laptop | bascule: thanks I will give it try and see what happens | 23:29 |
| hp | oi gente | 23:30 |
| rsk | pine: i have alsamixer | 23:30 |
| ppibburr | Nerd: /casper is on the live cd | 23:30 |
| xomp | th0r, I know, but I like linux too! It's an okay guy :) | 23:30 |
| pine | enable: master and pcm | 23:30 |
| hp | tem br | 23:30 |
| pine | press m | 23:30 |
| ta1 | Daenyth: the gnome panel at top/bottom.. moved 2 pci cards then the problem started... DE? WM? | 23:30 |
| pine | raise volume | 23:30 |
| Stepa1 | I need help getting access to my windows files. I have a virus and i cant boot. I had 2 drives. Right now i am using my live cd. i can get access (i mounted) my second drive, but that just had back up and none of the things i wanted. The first drive is the one with the windows system on it, and I cannot mount it. | 23:30 |
| rsk | no i know howto use alsamixer | 23:30 |
| rsk | but i need alsaconf | 23:30 |

| pc | kirm ba naw gali hamutan | 23:31 |
| kahrytan | Anyone know how to set a default secret key AFTER keypair has been created? So I can sign something with --clearsign | 23:31 |
| pine | first u remove alsa-base.... then u install alsa from source | 23:31 |
| Nihilist_Nerd | ppibburr: Thanks, but then why does it say 'Please copy these files from the LiveCD to /casper on your hard disk.'? | 23:31 |
| stunatra | thanks velko | 23:31 |
| overclucker | Nihilist_Nerd: i would be looking for what needs mounted there | 23:31 |
| Stepa1 | I need help getting access to my windows files. I have a virus and i cant boot. I had 2 drives. Right now i am using my live cd. i can get access (i mounted) my second drive, but that just had back up and none of the things i wanted. The first drive is the one with the windows system on it, and I cannot mount it. | 23:31 |
| pine | Logan i think u need to run : sudo alsaconf | 23:32 |
| Logan428 | Pine: Command not found | 23:32 |
| Nihilist_Nerd | overclucker: You mean copy the files from the /casper of the LiveCD to your hard disk? | 23:32 |
| sam__ | i have an s-vid cable hooked from my laptop to my hdtv right now...its not showing anything. lol. Help? | 23:32 |
| pine | ah you 2 guys have to same problem it seems | 23:33 |
| splitbit | Is there any way to bring down an ssh tunnel - short of grepping for PID and killing it by hand ? | 23:33 |
| Stepa1 | I need help getting access to my windows files. I have a virus and i cant boot. I had 2 drives. Right now i am using my live cd. i can get access (i mounted) my second drive, but that just had back up and none of the things i wanted. The first drive is the one with the windows system on it, and I cannot mount it. | 23:33 |
| ppibburr | nerd: i'll look at the thowto | 23:33 |
| Nihilist_Nerd | Thank you. | 23:33 |
| Nihilist_Nerd | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BootToRAM | 23:33 |
| xomp | Ok, let's try this one. I have a U3 Cruzer Micro USB thumbdrive that has it's little application launcher. When I plug it into my laptop it mount's but I can't access it.. If no answer is given within 2 minutes I will install windows 95 hehe | 23:33 |
| unop | splitbit, killall $(pidof ssh) ?? | 23:33 |
| velko | kahrytan, gpg --default-key name (from the gpg man page) | 23:33 |
| Cpudan80 | Stepa1: it is prob already mounted, look at /media | 23:33 |
| bascule | vbabiy_laptop: http://rafb.net/p/h9GL4g81.html | 23:34 |
| Psilocyde | need help putting my intel P/W 3945 card into monitor mode | 23:34 |
| unop | splitbit, err make that - kill $(pidof ssh) | 23:34 |
| splitbit | unop: Need to bring down specific tunnels .. have more than a few. | 23:34 |
| Stepa1 | Cpudan80: My second drive is mounted, but my first with the windows installation on it is not | 23:34 |
| pine | Ok I think u need to remove alsa-utils, and install it from fresh source | 23:34 |
| ta1 | Have you ever noticed alot of Linux people have an attitude of superiority, even though often they can't fix anybody's problem? | 23:34 |
| overclucker | Nihilist_Nerd: i havent read the article, but, my guess is that /casper would be where tmpfs, shm, ramfs, or some such is mounted on boot, and files from the cd are copied to | 23:34 |
| Logan428 | Pine: How do I do that? (I'm kinda new to Linux) | 23:35 |
| rodolfo_ | i know this is offtopic but i cant get connected to the fedora channel, so i will ask this here: did anyone already install fedora8 by not using the livedvd? | 23:35 |
| kahrytan | velko➲ negative. thats for typingmessages | 23:35 |
| Stepa1 | Cpudan80: it says Unable to mount the volume | 23:35 |
| mavi- | splitbit: there are some GUIs for that, like gnome ssh tunnel manager | 23:35 |
| xomp | ta1 I'm a huge noob to linux and everyone here has been able to fix my issues on one line usually. | 23:35 |
| Cpudan80 | Stepa1: dunno, sorry | 23:35 |
| Nihilist_Nerd | overclucker: ooh, the place on the RAM? | 23:35 |
| Stepa1 | Cpudan80: okay, thanks anyway | 23:35 |
| splitbit | mavi-: Ah, there is something like that ? Great, I'll take a look. | 23:35 |
| sam__ | anybody know how to send picture through s-video to an hdtv? | 23:35 |
| Nihilist_Nerd | But wait, it says 'on your hard disk'. | 23:35 |
| unop | splitbit, well, then the longer route is to grep the command line used to launch the process for a specific keyword - kill $(ps aux | egrep -i "ssh.*otherhost" | awk '{print $1}') | 23:35 |
| ppibburr | Nerd: you are making a build on your hardsik | 23:35 |
| Cpudan80 | Stepa1: be patient though, someone will come in | 23:35 |
| Nihilist_Nerd | Which partition will /asper be in? | 23:36 |
| ppibburr | which you will chroot to, configure | 23:36 |
| Cpudan80 | ta1: Depends on where you go I guess | 23:36 |
| Stepa1 | Cpudan80: I think i know part of the problem. Thanks, i will repost | 23:36 |
| mrpockets | http://s46.photobucket.com/albums/f117/n915aa/?action=view¤t=Screenshot-1.png | 23:36 |
| splitbit | unop: Yep, that's what I do for now .. I just wondered if there was an easier, more general way - something that kept track of which tunnels were open etc. | 23:36 |
| overclucker | Nihilist_Nerd: /casper is on / | 23:36 |
| Cpudan80 | ta1: You have a lot of people who think they're hot stuff when they really aren't | 23:36 |
| ppibburr | then you will make a live cd, from that buikld | 23:36 |
| mrpockets | ill give a dollar to someone who can tell me the name of the taskbar program thats on the bottom of that screen shot | 23:36 |
| splitbit | unop: gSTM (gnome ssh tunnel manager) seems to be a solution. | 23:36 |
| Stepa1 | I have a drive named "74.5 GB Volume" (with spaces) could this be a reason why Ubuntu wont mount it | 23:36 |
| pine | Logan: yeah hold, i will help you | 23:37 |
| phaedra | Stepa1, You might have better luck if you use systemrescuecd... | 23:37 |
| velko | kahrytan, the man page suggests to put this option in the config file. won't this fix your problem? | 23:37 |
| bastid_raZor | sam__; i have an nVidia card i do that with.. | 23:37 |
| unop | splitbit, it probably does the job (if you use gnome) :) | 23:37 |
| ta1 | xomp: I've been using ubuntu for a year and a half and come here when I can't fix something.. and 9 times out of 10 I can't get an answer... I would expect an ubuntu forum to have atleast a few omnitient beings.. :) | 23:37 |

| mavi- | mrpockets: avant window navigator | 23:37 |
| Nihilist_Nerd | overclucker: on /? You mean inside the root directory? If so, the root directory of what? The partition names I know of sound like /dev/sda1 and /dev/hdc2. | 23:37 |
| mrpockets | AH | 23:37 |
| mrpockets | YES | 23:37 |
| mrpockets | god thank you guys | 23:37 |
| overclucker | Nihilist_Nerd: i'm guessing, i'll read the article before volenteering anything more | 23:37 |
| kahrytan | velko➲ I hate manpages so how? | 23:37 |
| bastid_raZor | sam__; i could pastebin my xorg.conf for you to look at. | 23:37 |
| Nihilist_Nerd | overclucker: Thank you. | 23:37 |
| xomp | see, even a noob like me can be helpful :D | 23:37 |
| sam__ | yes please | 23:37 |
| mrpockets | so xomp why isn't it coming up in my add/remove applications search? | 23:38 |
| mavi- | Nihilist_Nerd: partitions need to be mounted at a mountpoint to be used, type "mount" to see what partitions is bound where | 23:38 |
| xomp | mrpockets, I found it in Synaptic | 23:38 |
| velko | kahrytan, the file is ~/.gnupg/gpg.conf | 23:38 |
| xomp | mrpockets, avant-window-navigator | 23:38 |
| unop | velko, keep insisting on the manpage :) | 23:38 |

| Logan428 | Pine: Nothing | 23:39 |
| mkquist | create* | 23:39 |
| xomp | mrpockets, you want to make sure that your looking for "available packages" and not "installed packages".. that's tricked me before :) | 23:39 |
| unop | pine, strange but for some reason ubuntu does not maintain alsaconf | 23:39 |
| RequinB4 | How would I open a *.xlsx file | 23:40 |

| nownot | when logged into my ubuntu server ping localhost fails any ideas/ | 23:40 |
| sam__ | thanks | 23:40 |
| Nihilist_Nerd | ppibburr && mavi-: Thanks. So it's actually talking about the mount point, not the partition name? So, is this mount point on the RAMdisk? Like /mnt/gentoo and /home/nihilistnerd/Mounted\ Filesystem\ 1? | 23:41 |
| adac2 | is there a package for songbird? | 23:41 |
| bastid_raZor | sam__; i hope that helps | 23:41 |
