CyntroxIs there a way to install Ubuntu without the CD? Cause the CD doesn't seem to like me... I have Windows and I have a seperate partition for Ubuntu.00:02
NB2000CD doesn't like you?00:02
Brad01Cyntrox, USb00:02
sudobashwhat happens when you type ifconfig... does it just give you loopback and no eth0 or anything?00:02
chocolatewithminhola: oooops! you have the same cam model i have, and i think the only way is compile de hqca (or similar, i don't know) if you have lucky00:03
AshfireCyntrox, there's a web install though it takes a usb drive or something so you have the web installer00:03
CyntroxYeah, I get a lot of errors when trying to install via the CD... No one here could find a solution to the issue. Would an external USB-hard drive work?00:03
wall2can anyone help with setting up a dlink wireless router in ubuntu?00:03

ignace72salut à tous00:03
ahorriblemessi had to reinstall ubuntu recently.... I'm having soundcard issues. My headphones don't mute the speakers. I followed this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=575750 (I actually added to that when I had it working before the re-install) but now it doesn't work at all after everything I've done00:03
NB2000Cyntrox What kind of errors?00:03
holachocolatewithmin: how you do it work00:03
swatTXlex, i edited my /etc/network/interfaces and make it "auto eth1" on one line and "iface eth1 inet dhcp" on the second.00:03
mysterycoolhow can I run a directory as super user?00:03
Brad01What is the Default Gateway, It says I need the default gateway address00:03

Xorothalwall2: what wireless card do you have?00:04
sudobashwall2 yes wrong place to ask but here open firefox and type: http://192.168.0.1 or http://192.168.1.100:04

wall2i ran the setup for the router, but i can't get a wireless signal00:04
mysterycoolAshfire: not run, but be able to manage the directory as super user :p00:04
lexswatTX: isn't it usualy start at eth0?00:04
Xorothalwall2: you might be out of range. Can you get a signal in windows?00:05
NB2000Cyntrox I might try burning it at the slowest speed possible.00:05
swatTXsudobash, ifconfig shows eth0, eth1, and (just noticed this one) eth1:avah entry00:05
chocolatewithminhola: no, i didn't have lucky :-(00:05
Anjahi, can anyone help me troubleshoot my speakers?00:05
holachocolatewithmin: ok00:05
wall2i'm only 5 feet from the router00:05
swatTXlex. I've tried swapping out eth0 and eth1. no luck on either.00:05
* speeddemon8803 cries.....my ubuntu cd isnt booting anymore00:05
Anjai have no idea why they wouldn't work... :(00:05
Xorothalwall2: ok, what wireless card do you have00:05
sudobashwall2 you need to connect to router over ethernet cable00:05
wall2i can pick up other wirelss signals, but i can't get mine00:05
CyntroxNB2000, I burned it at 40x I believe... Is that too much?00:05
mysterycoolBard01 & Ashfire: Thanks :D00:05
joecurleeok, so i got my firewire drive mounted (thanks to everyone who helped especially usser) but now when I cd to it I can't see any files. system monitor shows it as 100% full (which it's not quite... there are a few hundred MBs left)00:05
lexswatTX this is with a fresh install right?00:05
chocolatewithminhola: I think it's a bit stupid, but have you tried to install the driver on wine?00:06
sudobashswatTX you probably have a 169. something address dontyou00:06
NB2000Cyntrox  I have had older drives that just don't like a quick burned CD.00:06
sudobashon that eth1:avah00:06
speeddemon8803cyntrox, try burning at the lowest possible speed :)00:06
NB2000Cyntrox I say it might be worth a shot.00:06
joecurleethe exact command i ran was: sudo mount -t hfs -o rw,users /dev/sdb /mnt/myfirewire00:06
swatTXlex, other than getting a few codecs through totem i didnt make any changes00:06
holachocolatewithmin: no and you00:06
wall2i have the router connected to my ubuntu box via ethernet cable, but i'm trying to get the wireless signal on a macbook00:06
sudobashyou need to refresh your ethernet adapters swatTX00:06
CyntroxNB2000: I suppose it's worth a shot. I'll try.00:06
sudobashsudo ifconfig eth0 down00:06
sudobashsudo ifconfig eth0 up00:06
Xorothalwall2: try clicking on the network manager in the system tray, connect to other wireless network, put in details and click connect00:06
NB2000Cyntrox Good luck with it.00:06
chocolatewithminhola: yes, i have tried it, but no lucky00:06
sudobashand the same with the eth100:06
wall2(wrong place to ask i know)00:06

ph0rensicforrest, I think you can do it w/o the disk .. I have heard if you play along like you are going to reinstall the OS on the same partition but dont have anything format, grub will install, and fix itself.. thats another method..I actually did it once and it worked00:35
PeloswatTX, try  sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop that should reinstall all the files associated with the desktop part , not sure what you need is in there but it is worth a shot00:35

JorophoseI've helped a friend install Ubuntu as a dual-boot, and everything's working fine, but the windows partition is no longer booting properly. GRUB allows him to boot up into XP, and it goes into the whole "Windows is booting" phase, but then freezes. Any thoughts?00:37
PeloswatTX, I'm sure there is another meta package for the core stuff but I don'T know what it is00:37

ph0rensicFJSS127, Is there any other partitions on the drive or anything?00:38
JorophoseI don't think it's a problem with menu.lst, because he can boot into windows... It's just windows can't reach anything after that first screen.00:38
ZombineIS there a syscall in Linux to pause a terminal... just somethline like "Press any key to continue" or something like that00:38
CorruptTerroristrambo3, i started command prompt with it pointing to the folder with wubi in (C:\Users\Joe Harrison\Desktop>)00:39

FJSS127I want to retry installing it00:39
ph0rensicJorophose, Did you have to resize the windows partition in order to do this00:39
speeddemon8803he means get rid of ubuntu and possibly...yes.00:39

ph0rensicFJSS127, anything else on the disk?00:39

CorruptTerroristfark it?00:41
userwald0The problem I'm having is that when I install Ubuntu 7.10, everything works, but as soon as I run the updater and update to the latest kernel, all my hardware stops working00:41

NB2000Brad01 okay I got it open.00:41
rambo3CorruptTerrorist, yeah it's not working.00:41
CorruptTerroristoh oh ohhhhhhhhhh00:41
userwald0my network card quits, ican't login using gdm, etc00:41
ph0rensicuser__, something wrong with how you are updating your kernel00:41
sudobashbrambo: sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list00:41
ph0rensicuserwald0, ^^00:41
CorruptTerroristcan i download the x32 iso and just put it in the directory?00:41
PeloJordan_U, I know I can do it the long way with avidemux ,  by cutting the extra and then saving the last bit but it would take for ever00:41
NB2000brad you were asking about the ipsetup for a server?00:41
userwald0its like my kernel update doesn't complete00:41
LjLZombine: why would that be a syscall? it seems pretty much a user-level thing. "any key" is tricky, anyway, because of line buffering, but you can easily ask the user to press Enter00:41
sudobashand put in what i pasted above (3 lines)00:42
Brad01NB2000, yeah00:42
speeddemon8803userwaldo, your saying it basically turns your computer into a huge paper weight?00:42
FJSS127I would like to "unpartition" my hdd and then reinstall ubuntu. Is this possible???00:42

NB2000Brad01 well it hopes there are no other DHCP servers on the network.00:42

Brad01NB2000, I can disable the dhcp on my router00:43
speeddemon8803oops :)00:43

bcnlsudobash: got a URL for a pre-made disc? that sounds interesting00:43
PeloFJSS127, well assuming there is nothing you want to keep on this hdd, just boot the live cd and goto  menu > system> admin > gnome partiton editor00:43
NB2000the boot server is the IP of the machine you are accessing.00:43

Cew27hey all how do i start gnome from the command line i just installed it and want to start it i tried exec gnome-session00:45
LjLuserwald0, if the two versions are really different versions, the old kernel is not removed when you update. that means you can just boot using the old kernel, by choosing it in the GRUB menu (and you can make that choice the default by editing /boot/grub/menu.lst)00:45
Brad01NB2000, What do I use for server IP?00:46
swatTXCew27. sudo gdm? or init 2... maybe one of those, not sure.00:46
lexbluefoxx: as long as that folder exists in your home directory, it should work00:46
Brad01my ip?00:46
danandCew27 - /etc/init.d/gdm start00:46
Jordan_UCentaur5, gnome-session should do it if X is running, if not then xinit first then gnome-session ( or use startx and it will do both for you )00:46

bluefoxxlex, ok, so once i save that and make the folder do i have to reboot or not?00:47

iceswordFJSS127, what you mean by messed up00:48
NB2000Brad01 okay.  At the shell prompt type:  ifconfig00:48

sudobashbrambo did you get all that?00:49
bluefoxxlex, also, this drive i added is a external scsi i plan to upgrade soon as i can find a cheap one that is larger, will it be safe to swap them out or should i change the ext3 option to auto?00:49
FJSS127there are horizontal lines running across the screen, orange and black, it happened after i repaired vista00:49
NB2000Brad01 coming from your router its probably going to be some 192.x.x.x number.00:49
j_humphreywhere are the fonts stored?00:49
j_humphreyor how do I install new fonts?00:50
sudobashhaha wow i would vomit on Vista if i could00:50
FJSS127thats why i'm learning ubuntu00:50
lexbluefoxx: generally you don't want to add an external drive to the fstab because if it's not plugged in; problems will ensue when you boot00:50
iceswordj_humphrey, /usr/share/fonts00:50
sudobashyeah no doubt lex00:50
glameixt00:50
userwald0is it possible to only have the updater install the kernel source, and for me to manually manage the compilation?00:50
kostkonj_humphrey, to install new fonts, the easy way is to put the in ~/.fonts00:51
Brad01public ip or just ip?00:51
sudobashthats a good time... your like ummm what happened?00:51
sudobashoh yeah i unplugged that usb00:51
lexbluefoxx: but if you insist; you can just add the other one later when you get it; it'll likely be /dev/sdb1 then00:51
kostkonj_humphrey, or open a nautilus window and go to the fonts:/// location00:51
NB2000Brad01 should be IP Address under the section eth000:51
bluefoxxlex, its externally connected but through an scsi connector, i plan to daisy chain a bunch of 20 gigs into my system with the drives seperatly powered and in a second tower, then use them to backup to00:51
swatTXI really don't want to reinstall just to enable wifi00:51

boyhppydoes anybody know how to install compiz fusion?01:26
MedBookHello, any ISO burning software I use only recognizes my CD-RW as only 600MB, but it is 700MB in size, and when I try to burn the ubuntu ISO, it does not fit on the disc. What can I do?01:26
swatTXPelo, there's nothing really worth saving.. this is a fresh install but I appreciate the advice. I guess i should leave now before i begin to sound biter and prevent anyone from helping.01:26
Peloboyhppy, it is already part of gutsy , just go to menu > system > prefs > appearance,  last tab01:26
ed1tim trying to run tomcat  on port 80 and its giving permission denied for port 8001:26
speartcaleb_yau, ln -s source file /usr/bin01:26
ka2boyhppy: try System > Preferences > Appearance > Desktop effects on gutsy01:26
boyhppyall the parts of it?01:27
speartcaleb_yau, sudo ln -s creates a symbolic link01:27
PeloswatTX,  thwe nice thinkg about linux is you can make your /home folder on a seperate partiton that way fi you need to reisntall you can just overwrite the os and keep the data01:27
ka2boyhppy: think so01:27
PeloswatTX, all your settings will be saved as well01:27
boyhppyok, but how about in 6.06 LTS01:27
swatTXPelo, my settings are what's screwed up i think, lol01:27
speartcaleb_yau, without getting into configuration files and stuff01:27
andrejHow safe is it to update edgy to gutsy?01:28
speartcaleb_yau, being lazy is good :)01:28
Peloboyhppy, that might be a different story, just try asking in #compiz , they probably can point you to a website01:28
ka2boyhppy: install compizconfig-settings-manager for more options01:28
caleb_yauspeart oh so its not actually in the file. Thats awesome i'm having some memory issues so this is a great fix01:28
caleb_yauspeart let me try this01:28
ed1twhy would i get an permission denied in tomcat logs for starting it on port 80?01:28
ka2andrej: i'm not sure but you will have to go through feisty first01:28
PeloswatTX,  I mean the stuff in /home , like applicatiosn settings , wallpaper, general customizing, it won't save your fine os tweaking01:28
Brad01NB2000, You here?01:28
speartandrej, dependes on your configuration01:28
NB2000Brad01 still here01:29
andrejka2: bother01:29
andrejspeart : more specifically?01:29
JoelitoHi all, does anyone know another good web server alternative to apache?01:29
Brad01NB2000, Do you know why01:29
kostkonandrej, indeed, you have to go like this edgy -> feisty -> gutsy01:29
Brad01root@brad-desktop:/tftpboot# invoke-rc.d inetd stop01:29
Brad01invoke-rc.d: unknown initscript, /etc/init.d/inetd not found.01:29
ka2Joelito: nginx, lighttpd01:29
speartandrej, it'll work but you'll need to install 3rd party things01:29
ka2speart: no its in the main repo01:30
PeloJoelito, goto wikipedia,  search for apache , see toward the bottom there are often links to comparison pages01:30
speartandrej, use apt-get only01:30
ka2speart: no its in the main repo01:30
andreji'm getting contradictory messages :}01:30
ka2oops sorry01:30
Joelitoka2, Pelo: thanks :)01:30
andrejspeart: so if I just put gutsy into my sources.list you reckon it will work with an update & dist-upgrade?01:30
=== chaky_ is now known as chaky
ka2andrej: just try it its easy if you have the drivers already01:31
speartandrej, if you think that you'll save time than you should try01:31
andrejtime & band-witdh ;}01:31
speartandrej, worked for me before01:31

ph0rensicoops wrong window01:31
ka2andrej: just time - as far as I know its installed by defualt01:31
andrejka2: I had no driver issues with edgy ...01:31
=== alex__ is now known as bibby
ka2andrej: but only if its not been upgraded to gusy01:32
BrickerOkay, back again :P i finally got terminal to work properly, but when i "kill" gdm, it says ok, and when I run the nvidia driver install, it says i need to kill X...but it said it was killed!01:32
NB2000Brad01 did you invoke-rc.d dnsmasq restart01:32
ka2andrej: neither but it could break things so I was covering myself :)01:33
speartandrej, apart from openoffice I don't think it worth the upgrade01:33
rhineheart_mhello.. what is meant with real memory in ubuntu system information?01:33
andrejIf something breaks ... tough luck; that's what I get for the esae ofuse ;D01:33
Brad01 NB2000, yeah01:33
kostkonandrej, the safe way is: upgrade edgy to feisty and then to gutsy01:33
NB2000Brad01 no errors on that command?01:33
Brad01no01:33
andrejspeart: I want a newer version of postgres ...01:33
Pelorhineheart_m, real RAM as opposed to virtual memory, ie swap on a hdd01:33
caleb_yauspeart, ok here is exactly what i typed $ sudo ln -s /media/sda1/linux/arm-2007q3/bin/ /usr/bin and it worked. Still when i tried running arm-none-eabi-g++ binary, it says the command was not found01:34
andrej8.2.4 is too old, lags 2 minor versions behind01:34
NB2000brad that sed command is buggin me.01:34
andrejsignificant bug fixes in 8.2.6, and 8.3 performs better in most cases01:34
ka2rhineheart_m: non swap memory, actual RAM i think, illjust check01:34
rhineheart_mPelo: is there a module/script for Ubuntu that it would degrag its RAM when it reaches to the set limit?01:34
speartcaleb_yau, I generally link the exec file01:34
Brad01NB2000, Why?01:35
andrejkostkon : thanks for the warning, but I'd rather not d/l everything twice01:35
NB2000Brad01 not sure what it is doing.01:35
Pelorhineheart_m, defraging memory ???? never heard of that , never knew that could be done01:35
speartandrej, fixes of what01:35
m1ke_lthere a video chat client?01:35
andrejspeart : postgreSQL01:35
andrej:}01:35
ka2rhineheart_m: what would be the point, RAM has incredibly fast seek times - or more no seek times01:36
NB2000Brad01 but it wont let you stop inetd or xinetd?01:36
Brad01does anyone know what  sed -e '/USE_INETD=/s/true/false/' -i /etc/default/atftpd does?01:36
rhineheart_mPelo: I mean.. not really defraging the RAM but rather freeing some of the memory to increase the available ones..01:36
speartandrej, install from source then01:36
caleb_yauspeart cool, i can do that, but if there is an easier way for directories that would be awesome because it has 12 executables in it01:36
edicarloshi peoples01:36
Brad01NB2000, I never tried stopping xinetd01:36
mage__rhineheart_m: thats done automatically01:36
PeloBrad01, replaces strings of characters in the aatftpd file I beleive01:36
demonsporkwhenever I try to launch a second gnome-terminal, it fails to launch. I even try to launch multiple gnome-terminals from xterms, but I can only open one, and the next one just exits without returning any errors, it just fails to launch01:36
NB2000Brad01 do you get any errors on the SED command and the subsequent stop commandds?01:36
speartcaleb_yau, you can try *01:36
andrejspeart: how do I tie a newer version of PG into the debian/ubuntu way of building things?01:36
Pelorhineheart_m, just kill some processes01:37
rhineheart_mka2: have you heard about advanced system optimiizer? It defrags the RAM in windows environment..01:37
ka2rhineheart_m: swappiness is built into the kernel which swaps programs that have been idle for a while01:37
kostkonandrej, if you have bandwidth restrictions you can take such a risk. But if you don't have, then better do it the safe way.01:37
speartandrej, 1 second01:37
andrejI'm quite happy with ordinary source installs, but don't want to break dependencies01:37
prince_jammysBrad01: looks like it changes the value of USE_INETD from true to false01:37

NB2000Brad01 it might not be anything to worry about.01:37
rhineheart_mka2: the one that you suggest means real monitoring for the resources available in the box... can you manage yourself doing it?01:37
NB2000Brad01 long as one of them works.01:38

speartandrej, shorter than upgrade01:40
iceswordIndyGunFreak, how much01:40
Brad01NB2000, That doesn't work either :(01:40
speartandrej, more stable process too, if you think server-wise01:40
IndyGunFreakicesword: are you paying for support, or have some specific need for LTS?  because there's been a lot of improvements between dapper and gutsy01:40
IndyGunFreakicesword: depends on what you want it for.01:40

chuckIndyGunFreak: gutsy's install disk won't boot for me, but feisty's does01:50
ka2chuck: gutsy is after feisty yes01:50
Z_o-s-oI thought 7.04 was an great release01:50
IndyGunFreaki guess you can try.01:50

chuckwell what else would i do lol01:51
IndyGunFreakchuck: the alternate install cd?01:51

IndyGunFreakthats what its for.01:51
iceswordudon, what is wrong01:51
Peloudon, type the name of your app in the terminal that will at least tell you if it is installed01:51
NB2000Brad01 looks like what they are looking for.01:51
chuckIndyGunFreak: well there's obviously some bug with gutsy's install disk, and i don't want to have to mess with it01:51
udonjus can't read up01:51
Brad01NB2000, ok01:51
Brad01Here we go01:51
IndyGunFreakchuck: what makes you think that?.. i'ev installed gutsy numerous times on many different pc's, never a problem01:51
NB2000Brad01 boot the laptop and we'll see.01:52
IndyGunFreakchuck: i suspect there's a user bug01:52
chuckIndyGunFreak: ever installed it on an ibook g4?01:52
kostkonchuck, indeed you should first try to install gutsy using the alternate install cd01:52
iceswordudon, wht languauge you speak01:52
udonpelo, but the point is..im totally not into linux01:52
saskuatchman this os is not meant for normal people lol01:52
chuckIndyGunFreak: desktop install works on the feisty cd, doesn't work on gutsy01:52
udonpelo, just start today01:52
kostkonchuck, if that fails also, then go for feisty01:52
IndyGunFreakno, but is it PPC?01:52
chuckyes, i have tried burning it numerous times01:52
chuckIndyGunFreak: yes it is01:52
ka2saskuatch: yeah it is once you haveit working its great01:52
IndyGunFreakchuck: didn't PPC stop after Feisty?..01:52
pawanthanks01:52
chuckIndyGunFreak: it gets to the yaboot menu, and i hit enter, a little text goes by, but after that, it's blank01:52
IndyGunFreakGutsy, its a community project, not a canonical one.01:52

IndyGunFreakchuck: its a community project now, not a official poject of canonical..01:53
chuckZ_o-s-o: i have an ibook g4, i love it alot, you would probably want a macbook or macbook pro now, and yes i would recommend it01:53

IndyGunFreakand you are, but thats another issue01:54

Z_o-s-oWhat do you guys think will be the next move for Gnome now that KDE 4 is pretty much out there?01:55
kostkonZ_o-s-o, nothing01:55
Peloudon, you can start a program from the menu or from the command line,  starting it from the command line deos not mean it will be a command line program , it's jsut a diffrenet way of starting it01:55

udonpelo, i see, it's not showing in the application list01:56
PeloZ_o-s-o, gnome is not in competition with kde no matter what some ppl think , they both have different approaches with suit different ppl01:56

Z_o-s-oKDE is bloated01:56
bluefox83amenado, default policy on what?01:56
Peloudon, open the terminal from the accessories menu ,  type the name of the prog in it , that should start it for you , it will let you at least know if it is installed01:56
amenadobluefox83-> iptables01:57
bluefox83amenado, how do i do that?01:57
IndyGunFreakchuck: have you considered just looking at Debian?.. it has official support for PPC01:57

awli only get two entries: default and ck80402:01
aurumawl: (dont use quotes) and, damn... how are you getting sound from other programs to go to your headphones from your System> Sounds ?02:02

ZirodayI have two screens, my computer screen which is connected via VGA and my TV screen which is connected via DVI. The trouble is that on the tv screen the picture does not fit the screen. Any help?02:02

ASTURIASI think is 7.1002:03
ka2ASTURIAS: in 7.10 you can find it there02:03
aurumawl: google search seems like Ck804 is an internal card02:04
ka2ASTURIAS: but in 7.04 look for Desktop Effects instead02:04
ASTURIASI see Desktop Effects02:04
udonpelo, thank you, i got it02:04
* Pelo is jonesing for an oatmeal and cream cookie02:04
kostkonASTURIAS, then you have 7.0402:04
aurumawl: oddly enough NVidia... I wouldn't set it to that :p02:04
awlaurum: that's what i though, i only get that to display besides default02:04
kostkonASTURIAS, not 7.1002:04
ASTURIASGood to know02:04
Peloudon , you are welcome , and welcome to ubuntu02:04

Jangariyes, luis_, but check first whether you have it by looking in applications > sound and video, or by entering "which serpentine" in a terminal02:18
kazolbastid_raZor: That app is very good, like a full commercial app (Nero, etc.)02:18
copperkidill try the service thing; the man for screen makes no sense to me. thanks02:18
amenadoGreatBear-> dyah visited novel site yet?02:18
CeeBeeYaarhhi folks02:18
Jangariif "which serpentine" returns something like /usr/bin/serpentine then you have it already02:19
speartkazol, search for Hungarian projects02:19
bastid_raZorkazol; i agree. most people don't like having to install kde libraries but that doesn't matter to me. functionality is more important02:19
GreatBearamenado, yeah, we have a linux client in house, but it doesn't work with ubuntu02:19
Housefly7kJangari: what does " which" do02:19
amenadoGreatBear-> for which app you need the client for?02:19

iceswordIndyGunFreak, if i use dvd image,can i just only install the parts i want02:22

NB2000Brad01 probably restart both atftpd and dnsmasq02:22
Housefly7kbut i cant remember how i did it, and now want to know if there is an exisiting shortcut to show desktop, or if i can change it so the "super"+D minimizes all02:22
GreatBearamenado, yes i know02:22
bastid_raZorCeeBeeYaarh; you'll need to find a program that will read ext3 format02:22

kostkonb4l74z4r, the flash breakage exists no more02:23

Jangariokay, so flash is fixed? when did this happen?02:23
iceswordIndyGunFreak, if i use dvd image,can i just only install the parts i want02:23
ka2although i havnt tries fs-driver - i dont have windows to test it with02:23
IndyGunFreakice to an extent yes, but you're stil going to have to install a set of OS packages, Gnome or KDE, or whatever, and the space limitations you're putting on this are to much, you're not gonna get a workable system on 2gigs02:23
kostkonJangari, with two updates before ~10 days02:23
GreatBearamenado, i would prefer to run ubuntu02:24
Brad01NB2000, Here we go02:24
sudobashdid it work brambo?02:24
Jangaripays to remember that http://www.adobe.com/go/getflash is a failsafe way to install flash02:24
NB2000Brad01 cool!02:24
ka2Jangari: almost not for 32 firefox on AMD64 - you have to edit the installer script :)02:24
Jangaridoes anyone know where/if you can download the mac os x system sounds in wav format?02:24
IndyGunFreakicesword: you may tell it not to install openoffice, or something like that, but still, 2gigs is barely enough...02:24
LjLJangari, i suspect that would be piracy02:25
IndyGunFreakand thats having nothing02:25
amenadoGreatBear how about fedora, it uses gnome02:25

Jangariokay ka2, well i should qualify and say 'failsafe if you have a 32bit machine02:25
ka2JJangari: yes02:25
Housefly7kok so i found where it is, its in Keyboard shortcuts in the preferences menu, But it will not let me set "Super L + D" as my show desktop02:25
IndyGunFreakicesword: as i said earlier, you need to be looking at puppy, DSL, maybe vector linux..02:25
sudobashbrambo02:25
iceswordIndyGunFreak, but i like gnome02:26
Housefly7k"hide all windows and focus desktop" is the actual title02:26
IndyGunFreakicesword: well, then you need to give ubuntu more space.02:26
iceswordk02:26
GreatBearamenado, because setting up ubuntu is painless....02:26
GreatBeari would have figured that there would be some kind of Novell client02:26

hattak3b complains about the encoding of some files, and suggests I use convmv02:35

Brad01When I use Konqueror I keep getting a nsplugin error anyone know how to fix it?02:36
amenadoGreatBear-> i did not want you to use liveCD, i said you can customize one,02:36
usserhatta: files in different language often tend to have different encoding so still stands02:36
usserhatta: see if u have funny named files there02:36
ka2ahorriblemess: does your user own the folder02:36
hattayes, I have a file with an ae02:36
ahorriblemesska2: I am the user.. what do you mean?02:37
amenadoGreatBear-> google for remastering ubuntu02:37
usserhatta: rename it02:37
LjLahorriblemess: « sudo chown -R $USER:$USER ~/.Trash/* » - however, installing ALSA manually is far from a great idea, just for the record02:37
ka2ahorriblemess: your user account02:37
GreatBearamenado, i've seen that02:37
hattano, I want to keep the ae02:37

b4l74z4russer, yes, i chose to use the largest continuous free space02:56
ka2Bricke1: but im sure there is plenty i dont know02:56
Shapeshifterka2: k... But it's still irritating me that there's no word of xtightvncviewer in that package or xvncviewer in the vnc4 package. not in the readme, and there's no file like that... I wonder how I was able to just apt-get xvncviewer back then.02:56
LjLahorriblemes1: most likely - i was only suggesting it in case you really considered that bug a show stopper for some reason.02:56
usserb4l74z4r: well thats strange how it partitioned it what can i say02:56
endohey, im running ubuntu with 512MB of ram, is there any memory tweaks I could do to boost performance?02:56
tickyhi. I am reinstalling ubuntu. i have copied all the files under the apt-cache folder, do i need to run any command so when i install i don't have to download them again. i have tried, but it seems it is downloading everything from the server.02:56
TheZealotcan anyone tell me how to use find to find any file with a certain set of letter anywhere in the file's name or expension? I am readon the man page but don't understand which switch to use02:56
ahorriblemessLjL: did you get those last two messageS?02:57
ka2Shapeshifter: odd. but that is the source package xvncviewer was built from02:57
IndyGunFreakendo: you should have moderately good performance as it is.02:57
tickyendo: set something like 2GB for swap memory02:57
LjLTheZealot, perhaps better if you make a practical example02:57
endoticky: how do I go about doing that?02:57
ka2Shapeshifter: as i said you could just try getting tightvnc02:57
b4l74z4russer, i'm gonna give gparted live a try, i can't have this terrible waste of spacce02:57
LjLahorriblemess: "yeah it's a strange problem" and "hardy isn't stable"? yes. i replied: most likely - i was only suggesting it in case you really considered that bug a show stopper for some reason.02:57
tickyend: you already did it when you installed ubuntu02:57
ka2Shapeshifter: or the GNOME terminal services client02:57
Anjaok so are there any boards that ubuntu has trouble being compatable with the sound-card drivers?02:57

Shapeshifterka2: there's no xtightvncviewer on the tightvnc page eighter... that's what is confusing me the most... it's like there's no trace xvncviewer or xtightvncviewer "ever existed"02:59

PeloShkeve,   boot the recovery mode and type sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg,  select the vesa driver and leave the rest on default unless you know better03:54

stefanoShkeve, give the black screen a few minutes, no more than 5. Some times ubuntu doesn't display the loading screen, but a black screen.03:54

iKapPelo, already looked through that.03:55

Shkeveyes03:55
maimsterbb-N-2003:55
PeloShkeve, it reconfigures xorg for the video card,  the vesa driver is jsut the default for cards with no FOSS drivers,it will get you a gui back so youcan deal with the problem03:55
stefanoShkeve, if you see the lights that indicate HDD usage blinking while this black screen is on, it is probably that.03:55
jnascimentodoes anybody here knows upstart??03:55
holycowanyone here run the eeepc ubuntu install script?  just curious if that is a script that plays nice withubuntu packager or whether or not its one of those idiotic automatix types of things that does its own thing?03:55
nickrudShkeve: it does that, there's a bug listed for it. When you do the reconfigure, use the ati driver. It's better than the vesa (sorry Pelo)03:55
ShkeveI'm able to be on the net right now because I pressed the Prt Scrn button, and opened up help from there.03:56
* Pelo will never forgive nickrud for contradicting him 03:56

[BreliC]anyone here know where i can find the API description for the python screenlets module?04:24
[BreliC]the #python channel is not that helpful04:24
ka2[BreliC]: on the screenlets site I think04:24
ka2[BreliC]: i will check04:25
[BreliC]ka2, i looked, but didn't find it anywhere04:25
Shkevedoes anyone else have any ideas on how to recover a desktop that won't load?  I'm using ubuntu 7.1004:25
nickrud[BreliC]: http://www.screenlets.org/index.php/Documentation#Developers ?04:25
ka2http://screenlets.org/index.php/Documentation#Developers04:25
[BreliC]i'd like to know the class descriptions, etc.. i can't even find it on my machine!  weird.. it's not in the python mods directory04:25
Jack_SparrowShkeve: what were you doing the last time it worked04:25
ka2oops a little late04:25
bluefoxxok, so i sucessfully edited /etc/fstab on my other computer to auto mount a pair of extra 6 gig hdds under the home folder's to Documents and Music, and i changed it so user owns them and theres 666 write permissions on them, but i tried draging and dropping a file into one and it says "Error: you do not have permission to write to this folder" so im thinking i need to change it so the user owns the extra hard drives instead of roo04:25
bluefoxxt. how do i change the owner of a hard disk though?04:25
nickrud[BreliC]: sorry, those aren't links, only placeholders I guess04:25
new2ubuntuHi I cannot delete some files on a MMC card. I get an error message "rm: cannot remove `/media/disk/delme//someFile': Read-only file system"04:25
vitamin-carrot*snooze*04:25
[BreliC]nickrud, exactly.. that's what i ran into last time04:26
panfistshould i expect to get awful performance in a game like frets on fire with a geforce 4?04:26
ka2panfist: probably04:26
mage__new2ubuntu: if you cock up a file system on a flash card, might be a good idea to offload it, format it, and throw stuff back on04:26
nickrudbluefoxx: ext3 or ntfs/vfat?04:27
[BreliC]nickrud, ka2 do you guys know where the screenlets module actually resides on the machine?04:27
[BreliC]even a search doesn't bring it up, yet it doesn't cause an error when i import it in a *.py program04:27
n2diyhow do I ring the "bell" on the other end of an SSH connection?04:27
panfistka2 so what graphics card do i need to get smooth performance...right now not even 640x480 is playable04:27
vitamin-carrot*falls asleep*04:27
ka2panfist: i am only guessing04:27
nickrud[BreliC]: I can read only simple python, so I'm not the one to help04:27
new2ubuntumage__: I was thinking of doing that. Is there a way to tell what the file system is so that I can reformat it with the same one? (I use it for a cell phone)04:27
Bossmanbetabluefoxx, sudo chown -R freddie:freddie /nas2 where freddie is your username ... and /nas2 is your mountpoint... then sudo chmod -R 755 /nas204:27

ka2panfist: i assume you have the nvidia drivers04:28
mage__n2diy: uh, do you want to beep thier PC speaker?04:28
n2diymage__: yes04:28
mage__new2ubuntu: type mount, no args04:28
panfistka2 i believe so, restricted drivers are enabled and i get about 1000fps with glxgears, so i assume its working right?04:28
mage__mount | grep /mnt/disk if you love typing04:28
mage__n2diy: maybe try freshmeat?04:29
nickrudmage__: ubuntu does automounting  that under /media04:29
bluefoxxnickrud, the drives are both ext3 formatted with "sudo mkfs.ext3 /dev/hdb && sudo mkfs.ext3 /dev/hdd", as i cant get a new aptoncd disk without a burner and the one i had with gparted on it doesn't have the extra libs needed[the other comp has no net access, i need a router]04:29
bluefoxxoh04:29
ka2panfist: im getting 2600fps04:29
vitamin-carrotoh dear i need a better emerald theme04:29
n2diymage__: freshmeat!? I thought it was ctrl-g?04:29
ka2vitamin-carrot: still using emerald?04:29
new2ubuntumage__:  I got the data vfat,, with a lot of parameters (rw,nosuid,nodev,shortname=.......) will I need to know these parameters to correct format it?04:29
vitamin-carrotyeah04:29
vitamin-carrotwhy is there somehting better?04:30
ShkeveI just installed gutsy about a week ago.  Since then I had been trying to get wmv support, so I was installing and removing different media players, trying to get it to work.  I rebooted the computer today and the desktop won't load.04:30
Shkeveany ideas anyone?04:30
panfistka2 what kind of hardware do you have04:30
mage__n2diy: well try sending a ctrl+g to /dev/console04:30
bluefoxxand i figured out why i can't connect all my computers to the net. my "router" as it was labled is a mere [read:useless] hub/switch04:30
ShkeveI also installed gnutella04:30
ka2vitamin-carrot: with modern compiz you just use metacity themes04:30
mage__new2ubuntu: nope!04:30
nickrudbluefoxx: ok, with the disk mounted, do sudo chown <yourusername> /path/to/mount/point , then you can write there as your usual user04:30
vitamin-carrotmetacity aye?04:30
ka2panfist: Geforce 8400GS, cheap04:30
vitamin-carrotpumpkins of doom aye?04:30
n2diymage__: roger that.04:31
nickrudbluefoxx: yup, switches are not routers, but do have uses04:31
panfistka2 yeah i could use one of those04:31
new2ubuntumage__: sorry one last question, I'm not familiar with vfat,, I thought it would have said fat16,04:31
Jack_SparrowShkeve: wmv is as easy as enabling the restricted drivers, what all did you try to install manually.. can you get to recovery mode and a cli prompt04:31
ka2vitamin-carrot: most people dont use emerald anymore04:31
bluefoxxnickrud, like if i wanted to print to several networked printers at once?04:31
ka2panfist: i used to have a geforce 4 though04:31
nickrudbluefoxx: no, expand your router ports04:31
vitamin-carrotsorry i sill use emerald cause i had it on fedora04:31
ka2panfist: it was ok for planetpenguinracer & compiz04:32
Shkevesorry, but I'm completely new at linux, and I don't understand all the jargon.  But I installed mplayer, vlc, totem, xine, etc. at different times04:32
nickrudpenguinracer rule(d)!04:32
Shkevetrial and error04:32
ShkeveI can't say if that was definitely the cause of the problem either04:32
bluefoxxnickrud, allready done that command, typed in "sudo chown user:user /home/user/Documents && sudo chmod 666 /home/user/Documents" for both documents and music folders, to no avail04:33
ka2nickrud: now there is extremetuxracer04:33
vitamin-carrotawwww now i have to go into sunaptic and remove emerald04:33
new2ubuntuShkeve: I really like vlc,, I've never had a problem04:33
bluefoxxnickrud, ah, that could be usefull04:33
mage__new2ubuntu: for some reason vfat works better than the other choices like msdos, fat1604:33
nickrudka2: gotta check it out.04:33

ubotuDo 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/RootSudo04:41

bluefoxxok, found the problem with the other drives on the other computer. i needed to chmod 774 not chmod 666 them, after a quick couple changes to the command i can now write to them again:) my only concern is i might lose write privliges upon rebooting, as they are internal 6 gig volumes automatically mounted to these points upon bootup by my edited fstab file04:46
rhineheart_mamenado: no.. m accessing the box remotely.. but it logs tells me that it accessed that IP somewhere in UK.. do you think its a threat?04:47

bluefoxxmage__, i edited my /etc/fstab to automatically mount a pair of internal hard drives to the user[thats the acutal account name] /home/user/Documents and /home/user/Music folders, then when i tried to acess them it wouldnt let me read them, much less write to them.. so i used chown user:user /home/user/<either of the folders> then chmod 666 /home/user/<folders> but it didnt let me write, so chmod 774 fixed it. these are internal IDE04:51

[Hardy]TuTUXGZasch, by the way i think u should try gtkpod from medibuntu repo04:53
bluefoxxmage__, my main concern is i'll have to do it all over again upon reboot, so i think i'll make a shell script and remove the user password[comp is used mainly by my grandfather who has a tendancy to not remember passwords]04:53
mage__bluefoxx: it sets the same permissions for files and dirs, which is a tad annoying04:53

moidekaramenado, cfedde, I tried, and Ubuntu doesn't detect the network connection when I plug USB into laptop05:04
nickrudsdsheeks: sudo apt-get clean is the tool05:04
amenadobukk-> you have to do it as root, so sudo and the command above05:04
moidekarI was hoping someone could give me some tips05:05
sdsheeksnickrud: thx05:05

rjunebukk: there are router distros available, IPCop is one, if I remember.05:05
moidekaramenado, I tried modprobing usbserial and cdc-acm and a few other modules, but nothing05:06
hotmonkeyluvQuantz: yeah, you can05:06
mage__hmm05:06
moidekarI wasn't thinking that would work, since Ubu is darn good at doing that detection itself :-)05:06
bukkIPcop: takes a whole HD05:06
amenadobukk then you have to  sudo iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o EXTERNALINTFHERE -j MASQUERADE05:06
mage__Anja: try cat /dev/urandom > /dev/dsp that should either error or get ugly stuff coming out of speakers05:06
bukkand its hard to wmware it with several NICS05:06
Anjayeah i have no clue, i have read through the troubleshooting sites that were given me, on ubuntu's stuff05:06
donkeyhello05:06
Anjaok brb05:06
moidekaramenado, any ideas how I can figure out what the link is supp to give me?05:06
nickrudhotmonkeyluv: /etc/inittab is depreciated in gutsy, that package shouldn't be trying to work with it. It's a bug. You could probably do sudo touch /etc/inittab , run sudo apt-get -f install to fix that error. You should remove that package immediatley afterwares05:07
rjunebukk: the router should be separate from your servers.05:07
bukkamenado, : Ok, sec05:07
sdsheeksdonkey: hello05:07
amenadomoidekar->  assuming that usb port gives you serial access, then you need to activate ppp on your ubuntu, a config you must do05:07
brambocan someone remember that if sudobash comes back on brambo is looking for him, thanks fellow unbunuter's :)05:07
amenadomoidekar visit the vendor's web site and get a description05:07

moidekaramenado, ok, will check out mfrr's website, but just for the record, PPPoE is alread running on the BB modem... I don;t use it when I use the Ethernet connection05:08
bukkrjune even05:08
nickrudLapointe: hah. You didn't have the gpg trust.db to work with, that's the file not found. I'll remember that05:09
amenadomoidekar you have way too many connections, you have to explain what they are05:09
Anjamage_, how long does it take?05:09
guest_why it always shows that my password is wrong?05:09
hotmonkeyluvnickrud: so, i run sudo touch /etc/inittab, then apt-get -f install. then how do i remove it?05:09
mage__Anja: its usually noticably immediately05:10
amenadoguest_-> you entered it wrong?05:10
mage__an error would be instantanious05:10
nickrudhotmonkeyluv: sudo apt-get remove --purge runit . I only hope that the ubuntu startup didn't get hosed.05:10
guest_no....05:10
Quantzhotmonkeyluv: i can see all my filesystems like ntfs and ext3, however not the fat32 ones. running 7.10 off the DVD05:10

Makuseruare there any PC-based oscilloscopes in kubuntu/ubuntu?05:10
hotmonkeyluvnickrud: and what does the "touch" command do, and what does the -f do? (so I learn it)05:10
guest_tamenado: i use this password for 2 years05:10
nickrudhotmonkeyluv: shouldn't have been, it's a lot different than what runit is modifying05:10
amenadoguest how do you know that you did type in the correct one?05:11
guest_amenado: i use this password for 2 years05:11

amenadoguest_-> but it is not taking it now yesh?05:11
guest_ok...i'm wrong sorry05:11
nickrudhotmonkeyluv:  touch on an existing file changes the access date to the current date and time, creates the file if it doesn't exist. -f means fix05:11
hotmonkeyluvQuantz: hm, live dvd? not sure about that05:11
guest_my layout keyboard default Thai05:11

Joe_Sim not!!05:21
Cpudan80All I want to do is list the packages though?05:21
Joe_Si dont know how to do it05:21
nickrudhotmonkeyluv: aiglx support in the latest ati sucks, xserver-xgl with it is slooowww, and fglrx in ubuntu doesn't support suspend05:21
mage__storm-zen: like synaptic?05:21
amenadomoidekar are you saying in windows both the ethernet port and the usb port work at the same time?05:21
storm-zenThat's probably it, mage__.05:22
ka2storm-zen: Add / Remove Applications & Synaptic05:22
moidekarcaluchard, using the same lappy with Ethernet right now, so won't plug in the USB now, but in general, it says it found a new  high-speed USB device and is selecting config 1 out of 1 possible.05:22
Joe_Swats the difference between linux and windows?05:22
mage__http://www.ubuntugeek.com/clone-your-ubuntu-installation.html <-- who asked a really simple to google question about this?05:22

Joe_Sbr05:22
Joe_S*brb05:22
moidekaramenado, no! :-) If I install the Windows USB conn driver, then Windows can use _either_ the Ethernet or the USB conn, but Ubuntu seems limited to Ethernet :-(05:22
bluefoxxmage__, ok so i edited the fstab on my other computer again and after a breif transfer of it via diskmail[aka floppy disk] here it is for corrections if you care to help, as the edit didn't  work>http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/57156/05:23
bukksorry, how did you use that "anti flood" command05:23
storm-zenI have weirdness going on right now.  I had to use alternative install to access my LVMs from a prior distro, then had to install X-Windows by hand using synaptic, I think... How does one access the "universe / multiverse" with synaptic? ... I have no gnome icons... just a desktop.05:23
bluefoxxmage__, its the last two lines i added05:23
NetEchodoes ubuntu have support for resizing NTFS?05:24
Joe_Sback05:24
NetEchothe installer that is05:24
amenadomoidekar-> what am asking are both ports on the modem, ethernet and usb port are active at same time? so you can plug a windows on one (ethernet and you get access to the net) and also plug on usb port (you also get access to the net ) at same time?05:24
sdsheeksCpudan80: well, do you think that will work for you?05:24
zcat[1]NetEcho: yes05:24
cfeddeNetEcho: you can use gpartd for that.05:24
NetEchosweet05:24
nickrud!gutsysources | storm-zen05:24
ubotustorm-zen: gutsysources is in System->Admin->Software Sources, enable (main) (universe) (restricted) and (multiverse) and disable the Cdrom on the Ubuntu Software tab. On the Updates tab, enable (gutsy-security) and (gutsy-updates).05:24
NetEchocfedde is that on the installer?05:24
caluchardmoidekar, i think your modem not support the use of the two ports simultaneously05:24
zcat[1]NetEcho: yes05:24
Cpudan80mage__: That page doesnt work05:25
* NetEcho is gonna give it a spin on the laptop and see how she runs05:25
Cpudan80sdsheeks: What?05:25
sdsheeksCpudan80: the link i gave you.05:25
ian_Konqueror is driving me up the wall.... i must be blind but can't find a setting anywhere to disable the login remembering info05:25
zcat[1]NetEcho: by default if you have NTFS with windows, the installer will resize it, and it suggests about 50:5005:25
sdsheeksCpudan80: check this out http://www.howtoforge.com/ubuntu-linux-mint-livecd-with-remastersys05:25
cfeddeNetEcho: make a backup of anything important.05:25
storm-zennickrud: Heard the part about not having any gnome incons or menus and installing x-windows by hand, did you? ;)05:25
sdsheeksCpudan80: I thought it was you looking for a way to mirror a system...could be wrong05:25
cfeddeNetEcho: insurance. not a prediction.05:25
Cpudan80sdsheeks: No, all I need is a list of installed packages to echo to the other machine05:25
lexbluefoxx: using rw under the options didn't suffice?05:25
icanhasadminmkquist: yep, been through all that05:25
moidekaramenado, caluchard: oh, I see... no, when I tried to plug USB into laptop, desktop was off; but good point, they might not both work together so after struggling and getting it working it might be of no use... yikes.. didn't think of that :-(05:25
sdsheeksCpudan80: ah okay :)05:25
Cpudan80sdsheeks: I cannot do your thing because the archs are different05:26
nickrudstorm-zen by installing X by hand, what exactly do you mean? I assumed you used the ubuntu packages05:26
Cpudan80one is 64 bit05:26
mohadib_evening folks05:26
zcat[1]NetEcho: I've never had a resize fail yet, but it's still a good idea to have backups of anything you couldn't easily replace05:26
bluefoxxlex, apparently not, before i had it set to "default"05:26
sdsheeksCpudan80: okay.  I'm a paranoid backup freak so I'm always looking for ways to do what you are wanting to do.  let me know what you find out.05:26
storm-zennickrud: I found something called "ubuntu--desktop" ( I think ) in synaptic ( I think was what I used. )05:26
amenadomoidekar-> however if you do get an extra router box, most likely it will work05:26
storm-zenBut there are no gnome menus or icons...05:26
caluchardmoidekar, don't worry, you always can buy a chep ethernet card to share the connection or a router, maybe with wireless05:27
lexbluefoxx: I have one set as "/dev/sdc1 /home/<user>/music reiserfs rw 0 0" and it works as it should05:27
nickrudstorm-zen: ok, good. That's more than X, and that's the exactly right way to install the desktop. So, what do you mean, no gnome icons?05:27
ka2storm-zen: the ubuntu-desktop package installs gnome, openoffice and stuff05:27

nickrud!resetpanels | storm-zen: run this, tell me what you see afterwards. It should reset all panels to the default: 0ne on top, one on bottom.05:28
ubotustorm-zen: run this, tell me what you see afterwards. It should reset all panels to the default: 0ne on top, one on bottom.: To reset the panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel »05:28
storm-zenI have the graphical version of synaptic... I might be able to get this to work..05:28
amenadoCpudan80-> i think so, different arch would use different libraries05:28
lexbluefoxx: so the only difference would be /hdd (which you have) instead of /sdd or the like05:29
bluefoxxlex, also thats the exact copy of the fstab as i edited it, with the new options it didn't mount them but i can mount them manually, with the options set to "default" they did auto mount05:29
NetEchozcat[1] I know its also a good idea to defrag and chkdsk before resizing05:29
riloyou can use ZFS with FUSE I believe05:29
nickrudstorm-zen: synaptic is itself, there's no other version.05:29
ka2there was a fuse ZFS port05:29
lexbluefoxx: so open your mtab and see what it looks like in there05:29
ka2i can confirm that05:29
storm-zennickrud: Ok.  I used some tui to install X-WIndows.  Guess I don't know what it was, then.05:30
zcat[1]NetEcho: so they say; I've never bothered.. but it is really, really critical that you shut windows down cleanly. Linux won't even try to resize a dirty filesystem05:30
SuhailSo I have windows installed on my computer, would editing the partion with windows on it erase it?05:30
amenadobukk i thought you want to share the internet access between your pc's ?05:30
icanhasadminmkquist: I have one strange error. I added "options snd-hda-intel model=auto" and it gave me a line 40 error when i ran modprobe snd_hda_intel05:30
nickrudstorm-zen: apt-get ?05:30

Maimsterlaurica: Just ask our question.07:44

jarrettgreenstatic ip is just NOT sticking07:50

FlannelRingTailedFox_: LTSP, or just booting from a network image.  The latter is probably what you wnt (since you want it to run on the local machine), but it depends a lot on what you want to do.  You could probably make some sort of check for the server too (and then halt login, or shut down or whatever), without having to do too much, just a little scripting.09:32

anonA1sorry, i'm getting used to ignoring you11:31
anonA1well that sucks11:31
anonA1ah, as you said you didn't enable all repositories?11:31

anonA1i can't check myself, because i'm using the unholy11:32
DB44enabled propsed and backports, dont have it as well11:32
SquawkZedde, post the problem again, cant see it11:32
ZeddeAnyone has any idea ?  When I'm in terminal session ( in x )  and press alt+arrow  I get 3C3A3C3D3B3D3A3C3B3D  any settings I need to change ?11:33
anonA1DB44 well it's in debian packages ...11:33
DB44can i add it temp for one operation via a command ilne ?11:33
SquawkZedde. maybe a key binding?11:33
anonA1ah you want to get 3C3A3C3D3B3D3A3C3B3DE instead?11:33
anonA1DB44 you could, but i couldn't tell you how11:34
Zeddeno When I'm runninr irssi you shift window with alt+error11:34
Zeddearrow11:34
DB44anonal, which resp to add ?11:34
anonA1i thought it was alt-number11:34
anonA1DB44 i dunno11:34
SquawkZedde, check the gnome key bindings. though personaly I use alt-number to change with irssi11:34
DB44so how do you know it's in deb11:34
Zeddeno alt+"arrow key"11:34
anonA1DB44 because i can use the google11:35
DB44tnx...11:35
anonA1http://packages.debian.org/firmware-iwlwifi11:35

anonA1them's the breaks until the next ubuntu release, i believ11:36
anonA1e11:36
ZeddeSquawk: alt+number works if I don't use tabs ( know it's a short key thing need to be changed ) but when I over 15 windows11:36
DB44hopefully it works11:36
DB44i already manually d/led alsa and compiled it to get my sound card working11:36
anonA1DB44 it seems that it's working for others11:36
Zeddeit works if I use windows and use putty into my ubuntu system11:36
SquawkZedde, alt-a is window 11, alt-w is windows 1211:36
DB44they dont have my wifi card11:36
DB44what a troll...11:36
anonA1hopefully you won't get caught into dependency hell11:36
SquawkZedde, its gnome keybindings11:36

blahbomy system behaves weird after upgrading to 7.10 -- firefox takes about 1 minute to come up... and when i click the shutdown butten on the upper right corner, the system just freezes up. generally, there are lags everywhere, also doing basic stuff like 'ls' in shell11:40
chazcoHi... is runnign apt-get upgrade the same as letting Update manager run?11:40

ian2guts - guys11:41
Andycass1anonA1: Well, theres no trace of pureftp, although i did find out that it uses /usr/sbin/pure-ftpd & to start. I have to find out where does it get its arguments like -j and so on...11:41

SquawkXeNix, enable or unable?11:42
anonA1Andycass1 just don't tell anyone i told you11:42
ian2another thing, is there such a thing in linux, like norton utilities?11:42
EnselicCould anyone see what  the default for scroll history is on gnome-terminal?11:42

iositdblahbo, try running firefxo from a console and see if it gives you any other information11:42
SquawkXeNix, wrong partition type in fstab?11:43
anonA1ian2 um, what specific thing did you want to do?11:43
blahboiositd okay, let me check11:43
anonA1ian2 there are many ways to achieve what norton utilities do11:43
m8ramian2: is that a virus scanner you are looking for? or does that include more?11:43
SquawkXeNix, can you mount the parition from slackware?11:43
ian2or anything that fixes or optimize my system11:43
XeNixno11:43
XeNixwait11:43
ian2more like tuneup utilities in windows11:43
m8ramian2: what do you want to fix or optimize?11:43
m8ramian2: I don't believe there's anything generic11:44
anonA1Andycass1 anyway, i like update-rc.d11:44
anonA1but it's evil i tells ya! evil!11:44
anonA1ian2 is there anything specific you want to do?11:44
blahboiositd: just figured that running firefox as root is really quick. however, running firefox as a user, it just hangs in there11:44
XeNixSquawk : no  :s11:44
anonA1ian2 speak now or forever hold your tongue11:44
z0manGee thx AnonA1 :P11:44
XeNixSquawk : on fdisk i have them all on i mounted the partition when i had boot with ubuntu live cd11:45
SquawkXeNix, if slackware cant mount it then there is obviously something wrong with it11:45
ian2cause i've been installing and uninstalling stuff in my pc11:45
z0manLoLLo already showed me that:P11:45
iositdm8ram, afaik you don't have to optimize your system. There is no registry which you have to clean out, the apt system takes care of it's self and it doesn't get fragmented due to superior file system :-)11:45
anonA1z0man you're welcome, i don't know what for, but you're very welcome11:45
twosouls82how can I list packages I installed from the "hardy" repo? (am using gutsy)11:45

LoLLoOo ?? ?? ??11:45
SquawkXeNix, pm me the command you used to mount it11:45

ian2in windows when you do something like that it slows down the system11:45
anonA1ian2 not something you have to worry about in *nix11:45
compwiz18ian2: installing/uninstalling won't significantly impace the speed in Ubuntu :)11:46
anonA1ian2 in that respect, anyway11:46
ian2i hope it makes is SOMEWHAT clearer :P11:46
blahbom8ram okay, thanks....... will try11:46
compwiz18impace? impact ;)11:46
anonA1ian2 you see, it doesn't have that nasty registry thing :)11:46
iositdblahbo, i don't really know why it hangs. You can try to reinstall it from synaptic and see if it helps as it can be corrupted/missing user files11:46
ian2oh ok11:46
m8ramiositd: well it appears that it isn't true that the filesystem doesn't get fragmented, but the impact on performance is a *LOT* smaller11:46
blahboiositd okay, thanks will do that too11:46
anonA1the registry is evil i tells ya! evil!11:46
ian2so linux doesn't need one in the first place?11:46
ian2am i right?11:46
compwiz18ian2: yep11:46
anonA1ian2 whole different system11:46
Cew27hi everyone i just looked on the nvidia website and they only appear to have their driver for 8800 ultra on 64 bit amd do they do a 6 bit intel one ?11:46
iositdm8ram, ok it gets fragmented a whole lot less :-)11:46
Squawkian2, antivirus? forget it in linux11:46
anonA1doesn't rely on some weird assed pseudo-database11:47
LKCguys qucik question. human is a theme for what? Metacity?11:47
compwiz18LKC: I think so11:47
iositdLKC, what ext? link?11:47
ian2i know virus isnt a thing in linux, that's why i am migrating11:47
ian2to linux11:47
iositdsidenote: someone's hitting the wall here with a hammer or so :S i live in a flat and it's annoying!11:47
anonA1well, there are viruses, and exploits and bugs etc11:47
m8ramiositd: probably, not my strongest point anyway, haven't bothered to look into it because as you said it's a whole different system :)11:47
Bluesoulbut some software cant run inlinux11:47
anonA1iositd i hate that11:47
Andycass1Whats equipotent to /etc/rc.d/rc.local in ubuntu?11:47
m8ramSquawk: not if you also have WIN boxes on your lan!11:48
Squawkvirus's do exist, but the damnage they can do is minimal unless you run everything as root, and you have to work damn hard11:48
iositdm8ram, it doesn't even matter which file system you choose, they are all better compared to windows :p11:48
LKCiositd human is the deful them installed for ubuntu and im wanting top change it im just wanting to confirm if its a metacity theme or not11:48
filthpighi, I can't boot linux isos in qemu.. They either complain about no cdrom or just throws me into some shell purgatory.. Seems nobody's awake @ #qemu :(11:48

TurgonHello. I have tried to load the module gspca to be able to use my usb webcam, as I was in Feisty, but I get this error message: "FATAL: Error inserting gspca (/lib/modules/2.6.22-14-generic/kernel/drivers/usb/media/gspca.ko): Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)" The pertinent dmesg output can be seen here: http://pastebin.com/m2a306081 .  First I tried the module which came with Gutsy, and then I downloaded and compiled the one12:00
Turgon from the driver's home page: http://mxhaard.free.fr/spca5xx.html ; but the error stayed the same. What am I doing wrong? Thanks a lot for your time and work.12:00
anonA1iositd well depending on how much I like eluveitie, you may have made my day too12:00
anonA1rachel84 just ask12:00
iositdanonA1, imho they're the best folk metal band i know off12:01
rachel84Right! Will do! I've got a problem with user switching. When I try to switch user I just get a blank screen. Sometimes I get the black screen when I first switch, sometimes the first switch works and get a black screen when I try to switch back to the first user. I'm running Gnome with Compiz on an Intel 910GL card. Trouble is, I'm not really sure where to look to start diagnosing the thing.12:02
iositdwe've kind of put the channel offtopic it seems. ... back to helping oflks!12:03
iositdrachel84, is there any kind of error message? can you switch to a terminal when the screen goes blank?12:03
rachel84Oh... and when I get the black screen I can here the log-in box appear and type a password and hear the Ubuntu log-in music. I can ctrl-Alt-F1 to get a terminal, but I can't see any error messages anywhere (probably not looking in the right place, though)12:04
iositdrachel84, have you tried to go back to the terminal you're having the login screen on? (usually it's the 7th one)12:05
Squawkrachel84, dmesg or have a look in /var/log/somethingorother.log12:05
rachel84Yep. Still the same black screen.12:05
iositdrachel84, and you can try to kill compiz on another terminal and then go back to see if it gives you a visual12:05
rachel84Nothing relevant in dmesg or Xorg.log12:06
timucinanybody here can help me iptables routing with my ubuntu server?12:06

iositdkiller, define "that"12:08
Squawktimucin, 13 public ip's. Wow. Ok do you understand iptables and just need pointers, or need help with a total solution?12:09

anonA1sofiankr1 dmesg and look hard12:13
Squawkkiller, if you cant mount the partition with slackware, then reformat the partition (have you actualy formatted it?)12:14
anonA1iositd oh lol, i was confused for a sec :)12:14
anonA1that's a lot of progs12:14
killerSquawk: no i cant mount with slackware12:14
iositdrachel84, sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart if i'm right *looks at anonA1*12:14
killerreformat i will delete all data on it12:14
killer:s12:14
Dr_willisuse gdm or kdm  - not ?dm :)12:15
iositdanonA1, oh yeah, and a few movies _legally_ downloaded and some music also legally downloaded12:15
sofiankr1anonA1: there are too many options!12:15
Squawkkiller, you already said you altered the partition, so you probably borked it anyway12:15
anonA1sofiankr1 ok, dmesg|grep ideo12:15
iositdDr_willis, ? substitutes for a single letter, thus it will replace it with g when using gdm and k when using kdm12:15
CorruptTerroristwhere can i download the alpha5 md5's?12:15
Squawktimucin, I pm'd you a bit of info12:15
killerSquawk ; i had delete another partition not ubuntu parition :s12:15
linuxuserhello.can i use enlightment with KDE?12:15
CorruptTerroristoops. wrong chan12:16
Dr_willisiositd,  i have BOTH kdm and gdm installed...12:16
killerand when i had boot with live CD i had access to the parition :s12:16
iositdDr_willis i c12:16
sofiankr1anonA1: I got three12:16
Squawkkiller, you didnt mention another partition, you said the partition you changed was /dev/sda1, and that ubuntu now cant mount that partition. That means that partition is scrweed12:16
anonA1sofiankr1 ok, what about lspci|grep media12:16
Lettuc3how do i connect my nokia 3110c phone via bluetooth in wammu?12:17
killerSquawk: look on pm12:17
iositdLettuc3, is bluetooth working in general?12:17
anonA1sofiankr1 you should be able to figure it out from that ... or pastebin the outputs for me, and i'll look12:17
sofiankr1anonA1: I got nothing12:17
Lettuc3iositd yes, i can browse the phone in gnome, but what i want is to retrieve my SMS messages from it.12:17
anonA1sofiankr1 ok, pastebin your whole dmesg for me12:17

CorruptTerroristcrap12:20
blahboany ideas why my HDD performance is really bad afte rupgrading to 7.10? it took my about 3 mins to copy a 2GB file locally12:20
Gigahertztell me, you use ubuntu too ?12:20
iositdblahbo, depends what you call slow. What sort of HD do you have? depending on which one, 11 meg a second isn't bad12:21
blahboiositd it just feels a lot slower. i'm running a toshiba laptpo with a core 2 duo proc.. sata disk of any kind12:21
CorruptTerroristhardy-desktop-i386.iso: FAILED MD512:21
rachel84(08:14:33 PM) iositd: rachel84, sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart if i'm right *looks at anonA1*  <-- okay, that restarted the display manager and got rid of the black screen -- which is better than having to restart the whole computer.12:22
CorruptTerroristdoes it mean i have to download it again?12:22
blahboiositd any idea of where those md5sum processes come from? i disabled indexing in the user profile...12:22
jpatrickCorruptTerrorist: yes12:22
faileasCorruptTerrorist: yeah12:22
ehsan_I want change /media/cdrom1 to cdrom0+ubuntu12:22
ehsan_ please help me12:22
CorruptTerroristoh teh noes... 2hr 15mins to wait then12:22
anonA1sofiankr1 ah, looks like with your chipset (Intel 945GM) it's onboard video12:22
rachel84But does it give any clues as to what the problem is?12:22
iositdblahbo, md5 processes are not related to indexing afaik12:22
iositdblahbo, give me a sec while i look it up12:22
faileasehsan_: you mean mountpoints?12:22
cafkahi!! i have broadcom 4311 card and somethimes i get this error Ndiswrapper doesn't support monitor mode. :S  can i fix it???12:23
anonA1sofiankr1 and it's using 8Meg of memory (pretty low)12:23
blahboiositd it's really strange.. there's an md5sum process that keeps trying to index a 2GB truecrypt file12:23
sofiankr1anonA1: where can I get the drivers?12:23
lyescan somebody help me to fix my problem12:24
Gigahertzwhy don't you answer me ?12:24
sofiankr1anonA1: some games are working, but pretty badly12:24
floppyshuriken5 min boot here...12:24
sofiankr1anonA1: compiz is working great, however12:24
ehsan_faileas: my cdroms mount but doesnt add cdrom1(my dvd rom) ass apt source package12:24
iositdblahbo, there is a command that can limit programs to a maximum amount of cpu usage ... it isn't ideal but it would help you for now at least ... though i lost that name as well12:25
faileasahh12:25
anonA1sofiankr1 i'm not surprised with that amount of Ram allocated ... it seems it uses Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 95012:25
rachel84Anyone else got any ideas about my user switching issue?12:25
blahboiositd yep, i know what you mean..... still, this is really weird.12:25
sofiankr1does anyone know of a good database management system, asides from OOo, for beginners?12:25
sofiankr1anonA1: that's bad?12:25
faileasehsan_: ahh.. tried editing sources.lst manually?12:25
blahboiositd it seems that md5sum is invoked when i start up firefox12:26
ehsan_yes12:26
faileas(after reading and understanding the man page)12:26
=== hazzer123 is now known as freudinator
anonA1sofiankr1 well from my initial googling, many ppl with this chipset/graphics combination have a problem with slowness12:26
srttsdpadang12:26
sofiankr1anonA1: not at all. compiz is running as smooth as silk, but the games have these blinking black spots or squares12:27
iositdblahbo, i agree, it's a wierd situation ...12:27
anonA1sofiankr1 well all i can say is google "ubuntu Intel 945GM"12:28
sofiankr1ok12:28
sofiankr1thanks12:28
anonA1as that's all i can do in this situation12:28
sofiankr1rachel84: what is the problem?12:28
bullgard4What is a 'software bus'? (http://linux.slashdot.org/linux/08/02/02/2219233.shtml)12:29
anonA1sofiankr1 check this page; http://linux.dell.com/wiki/index.php/Ubuntu_7.04/Issues/Intel_945GM_video_issues12:29
blahboanybody else has an idea which process could trigger md5sum indexing?12:29
sofiankr1anonA1: thanks12:29
anonA1thank me after your games are blazing ;)12:29
rachel84When I switch users I get a black screen.12:30
rachel84I can still hear that the other user using is logging in, but the screen remains black.12:30
anonA1sofiankr1 don't worry about the Gnome specific stuff on that page (of course)12:30
sofiankr1rachel84: can you switch users in the terminal?12:30
rachel84I can ctrl-alt-f1 to a terminal and log in. When I ctrl-alt-f7 back, the screen is still black, though.12:31
ehsan_faileas: yes12:31
DuClareAnd what if it isn't F7?12:31
x-fakhi12:31
rachel84I tired, the other numbers just in case. :-)12:31
sofiankr1rachel84: are you using any graphical effects on your computer/12:32
x-faki'm trying to play 5.1 sound with vlc, but's it's defaulted to 2.0 stereo do you know why?12:32
ChepraHello! Does anyone have a short installation guide for imagemagick 6.3.x for gutsy? :)12:32
rachel84Yeah, Compiz, with Deskop cube and anything else I could find that looked col.12:32
faileasehsan_: dang... not sure then12:32
ehsan_faileas: but doesnt solve my problem12:32
sofiankr1rachel84: maybe it's too much for your hardware? happened with me once in mandriva12:32
rachel84The hardware handles it fine. It is just user switching that has a problem.12:33
rachel84It is slike something isn't getting re-innited on a user switch or something.12:33
Jezzso yay, ubuntu 7.04 install successfull12:33
Jezzcan i upgrade to 7.10 now?12:33
iositdanonA1, you've heard eluveitie yet btw?12:33

Jezzand how do i install graphic drivers?12:34
anonA1iositd i have downloaded some, but can't listen to it here (at work ;) )12:34

aLeSDhi all . how can I change the kde theme in ubuntu ... I mean I'm using amarok and I want to change the fonts12:34
aLeSD??12:34
iositdJezz, system -> administration -> restricted drivers -> make sure they are all thicked12:34
anonA1sofiankr1 here's another page that might help http://blog.nixternal.com/2007.12.30/intel-945-video-hint/12:34
iositdanonA1, you're doin this while at work? lol nice ...12:35
sofiankr1rachel84: do all the users have the same compiz settings?12:35
anonA1iositd haha yeah12:35
Jezzok back12:35
Kutag1Hey all. I got a problem I think.....12:35
anonA1hey does ubuntu come with glxgears installed in the default install?12:35
sofiankr1anonA1: thanks! I've managed to install the driver12:35
Jezzhow can i upgrade to 7.10?12:35
Kutag1I got a nvidia Geforce FX5500 graphics card12:35
iositdanonA1, yeah it does for me ... but let me check12:35
Jezzi have 7.04 now12:35
anonA1sofiankr1 that should make a difference12:35
iositdyush12:35
Jezzand i also need to install graphic drivers12:35
sofiankr1anonA1: hopefully12:35
bullgard4aLeSD: You will probably get more satisfactory answers in #kubuntu.12:35
Kutag1but when looking at Screen and Graphics it shows that I use the drivers for Nvidia geforce 412:35
rachel84I have just created the second user - the one I am trying to switch to -- so they will have whatever the default is. Not sure.12:35
anonA1iositd don't worry. I was going to ask sofiankr1 to do a glxgears FPS check before and after installing and configuring the drivers to see the difference12:36
aLeSDbullgard4 :)12:36
x-fakdo you know why i have some horizontal tearint while playing videos (8600 gts ubutnu 7.10 proprietary drivers) ?12:36
iositdanonA1, it does have it installed by default :-)12:36
anonA1iositd ah excellent12:36
aLeSDbullgard4: the problem is that I'm usint from ubuntu based system ... I won't install kde12:37
Kutag1Hey ppl, I think I got a problem.12:37
Kutag1I got a nvidia Geforce FX5500 graphics card but when going to System-Administration-Screen and Graphics at the graphics card drivers tab, I see that it has the nvidia Geforce 4 drivers.....12:37
CorruptTerrorist12% of 694MB with 1hr 59mins...12:37
Kutag1by manually changing it, it stays at nvidia Geforce 4 (generic) drivers12:38
Kutag1anyone got an idea?12:38
sofiankr1rachel84: my best guess is... there's something corrupt about the partition. try reformatting it12:38
iositd!anyone | Kutag112:38
ubotuKutag1: 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?12:38
x-fakdo you know if i can enable v-sync for playing videos with nvidia?12:38
iositdKutag1, try the ones from the nvidia site12:38
bardyrKutag1, sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx12:38
Kutag1Ok ty bardyr, Ill try out your command12:38
bardyrKutag1, dont try them from nvidia.com unless you know what you are doing, it will break your system12:39
Kutag1never intended to do so12:39
Kutag1couldnt find linux drivers anyway12:39
Kutag1downloading the drivers...12:39
bullgard4aLeSD:  Synaptic: "A versatile and easy to use audio player for KDE."12:40
Kutag1anything special that I have to do after having the drivers installed to doublecheck that I got the correct drivers?12:40
bardyrx-fak, you can do it with nvidia-settings12:40
anonA1Kutag1 you might be better off doing "sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx nvidia-kernel-common" then "sudo nvidia-glx-config enable"12:40
Kutag1ok ill try that one then now12:41
x-fakbardyr, ok i need nvidia-settings12:42
Kutag1ok I'll restart my PC now12:42
Kutag1be right back12:42
bardyrx-fak, if you use the binary gfx drivers you already have them12:42
bardyrs/them/it12:42
anonA1heh, his next question will be how to disable the nvidia splash screen ;)12:43
x-fakbardyr, do you know how to check this setting?12:43
iositdanonA1, thank goodness it doesn't show for me12:43
anonA1ah maybe it writes the "nologo" into xorg.conf now12:43
wookienzhi, just intsalled ubuntu and basic lamp. i have a group called ftp and a user assigned to the group. in the .ini for proftpd i have the user and group stipulated. however it wont let me use my ftp program to write to anything other that the users home dir. have do i change permissions such that the user can write to the /var/www dir?12:44

wookienzhow do i change what permission a user has to a certain dir?12:48
Kutag1Oh another question: When starting up my PC with Ubuntu, I get the following: "Kinit: trying to resume from (some folders)" then on following line "Kinit: No resume Image" and a bit later an error with "request region 4300-433F" problem..... What is wrong here? :S12:48
anonA1Kutag1 that's for kerberos ...12:49
arttiIs sda1 same as hda1?12:49
iositdartti, no12:49
CorruptTerroristcan you download the iso's via torrent?12:49
Kutag1AnonA1, would you mind explaining me what Kerberos is?12:49
Kutag1CorruptTerrorist, yeah you can12:49
iositdCorruptTerrorist, yes12:49
faileasartti: HDA= IDE SDA is IDE for the new kernels, SCSI for everything12:49
Kutag1You need BitTorrent client for that12:49
Kutag1BitTorrent is somewhere in the add/remove software section....12:50
arttiI wanted to do performance boost using tutorial.12:50
anonA1Kutag1 well it's related to authentication and logins etc ... if you don't know what it is you probably don't need to know :)12:50
CorruptTerroristi need the iso so i can install linux :P . i use uTorrent constantly12:51
anonA1Kutag1 it must be related to KDEs login? I'm guessing here12:51
Kutag1Well, I want to know whether it is a problem or not. The error related to request region 4300-433F?12:51
Kutag1I'm using the plain Ubuntu, with GNOME12:51

Kutag1Mohbana, you don't need Adobe Reader13:03
EnvoyRisingcambazz_ did you do a ctrl alt f7 afterwards?13:03
CorruptTerroristare the torrents as fast as the mirrors? sorry, no nick highlighting13:03
mohbanaKutag1, i think i do evince doesn't render fonts that good13:03
Kutag1CorruptTerrorist, nope usually the torrents are slower13:03
chazco!medibuntu13:03
ubotumedibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org13:03
iositdCorruptTerrorist, they are sometimes faster, sometimes slower, but they have the advantage that you can resume them later13:03
Kutag1Well, then I would look around13:03
Kutag1Torrents are not downloading from a server but from other users13:04
EnvoyRisingmohbana:: unless you need to work with pdf files that have form entries13:04
faileasin my experience torrents are slower but more reliable13:04
CorruptTerroristconsidering the fact that i have a slow conection anyways... is it not worth it being able to resume later?13:04
iositdfaileas, i usually get rather high speeds on torrents (as in 500+)13:04
Kutag1I usually use torrents when I need to download large files13:04
chazcoIs it safe to use the Medibuntu repo to install ffmpeg?13:05
Kutag1CorruptTerrorist, it is actually worth it if you got a slow connection13:05
EnvoyRisingchazco: thats what i always used back in the day13:05
faileasiositd: the best i got was 200 kbps ;p13:05
gopp!webmin13:05
ubotuwebmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. See !ebox instead.13:05
EnvoyRisingchazco: but thats been forever, so i don't know if they've changed at all13:05
Jezzand how do you get those effects?13:05
CorruptTerroristKutag1, is it worth waiting 10 weeks for a cd?13:05
iositdfaileas, the best i had so far was 2 meg a second on a torrent .... which wasn't a peak because it kept it there the whole time :-)13:05
chazcoEnvoyRising - Ok... i compiled it myself but i reinstall Ubuntu about once a week, and solving the ffmpeg deps can be chaos13:05
Jezzberryl? or i dunno what it is called13:06

tanathafter a reinstall that is13:15
mad_max02Jezz, dude u gotta install video card drivers properly13:15
Jezzoh13:15
hctanath, it might've been updated, but the latest version is on their site. Also, by recompiling you rule out that it is corrupted or anything else wrong with it13:15
Jezzok kutagl gonna try that13:15
mad_max02tanath, dude remove the package with synaptics (complete removal) and then install it again13:15

EnvoyRisinghc: typo, sorry13:17
mad_max02tanath, just backup ur .amsn directory13:17
Jezzso now its downloaded, do i need to install it?13:17
tanathmad_max02, purging won't affect that? maybe i should... yeah13:17
hc14323 was that it all will work in the end, no matter how difficult it might seem at first13:17
Kutag1ok Jezz, try again "compiz --replace"13:17
tanathk13:17

Kutag1you already installed it automatically13:18
hcJezz, apt-get install installs it after it downloads it by itself13:18

hclol13:18

mad_max02Kutag1, then run glxgears13:20
Jezzwell i dont see no diffirence13:20
hcEnvoyRising, another one is that techs from linux world can admit there's a bug in their software, where m$ techs just say "no that ain't a bug, that's a feature"13:21
mad_max02I get about 20.000fps with glxgears so I'm sure that drivers are working properly13:21
Jezzbut doesnt ubuntu has something like device manager?13:21
Kutag1gah now it is removing nvidia-glx13:21
Kutag1:S13:21
Kutag1and installed nvidia-glx-new13:21
Jezzso how do i see if its installed now13:21
Jezzi dont see no diffirence13:21
Kutag1but that fixed the issue13:22
hcJezz, run compiz --replace again13:22
Squawkjezz, what exactly is it you want to do with "device manage"?13:22
EnvoyRisinghc: more like "yeah, its a bug, but lets just call it a feature. Example, AVN locking in position if you exit from the right instead of above, and im-switch locking keyboard input unless you tweak dead keys)13:22

tanathmad_max02, purging it had no effect13:22
mad_max02its the most stable driver13:23
hcEnvoyRising, the only thing that i'm using windows for is for games, since they still run better on it13:23
Jezzallright if i quit the drivers are NOT installed lol13:23
EnvoyRisinghc: good thing is, at least as far as i've seen, there is usually a discussion before they leave a bug and relabel it as a feature13:23
gold44is there an utility that can start and stop a hole bunch of services with easy to use menu , like sysvconfig >13:23

mohbanathis is lame, adobe have made a repo for yum but didn't make one for apt13:34

jtravnickhc yes all three can get on the internet are concected to a router13:35
EnvoyRisinghc: i don't think i'm a big enough game junky to guess. reminds me of cube only because you can build stuff13:35
tanathhc, i installed the amsn package from the site, and now i get a popup error that says 'tkcximage failed to load'. i've seen that error before, but forgot how it was fixed13:36
DB42how do i check if i have any ports opened ?13:36
EnvoyRisinghc: do envy you. wish i was on a mod/ dev team.. my green thumb is itching for a bit of coding13:36
hctanath, you probably have to install that package yourself afterwards13:36
Jezzwhy does restricted driver manager i dont need drivers13:36
hcEnvoyRising, if you apply i can probably give you a good word in there :p13:36
Jezzi dont have nvidia drivers yet13:36
EnvoyRisingmohbana, they did make one for apt13:36
jtravnickhc ive tried NFS and Samba but can never get to my desktop off anything else13:37

hcEnvoyRising, do you happen to know about networking fedora and ubuntu together? *points at jtravnick*13:37

tanathhc, apparently... didn't seem to have checked for that dependency.13:37
mohbanahttp://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.3bc38853, look at the last post13:37
EnvoyRisinghc: seems a bit vague... i thought networking was os agnostic?13:37
DB42is the default 7.10 kernel tick-less ??13:37
jtravnickthe laptop is running fedora6 and have no idea what i did back than to make it work13:37
hcEnvoyRising, yeah ... he wants  his 3 systems linked together ... but i haven't done that yet in linux :p13:38
hctanath, that happens more when compiling programs (lives holds my current record with 10+ packages missing)13:38
hcjtravnick, second ... i'm not that well with networking so someone else will have to do that one for you13:38
froldill fucking burn that iso - seems much easier :D13:38
floppyshuriken4 min boot up time is unacceptable, what can I do?13:39
tanathhc, still not working :/13:39
tanathhc, same error13:39
jtravnickhc k thanks anyway13:39
EnvoyRisingmohbana: just a sec, net connection being slow. think you need to ad a reop13:39
EnvoyRisingrepo*13:39
DB42anybody here know if the 7.10 default kernel is tick-less ?13:39
hcfrold, you can just do something like sudo mkdir *insert mountpoint here* mount -o loop *insert iso file name* *insert mount point*13:40
tanathhc, this person had the same problem. no help: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-software-2/amsn-failed-to-load-tkcximage-615431/13:40

EnvoyRisingfrold: you didn't have to burn it :|13:43
tanathhc, and the snack library13:43
Kutag1here I am again13:43
mohbanaEnvoyRising, yes! ubuntu is very popular i am surprised they didn't include a .deb package13:43
EnvoyRisingfrold: could have saved you a disc :-\13:43
tanathhc, those were removed when i uninstalled the repo version13:43
tanathhc, i installed them again, but no go13:43
EnvoyRisingmohbana: maybe its a redhat thing13:43
hctanath, you might have to compile it with the -dev versions of those as well13:43
froldI know - but mounting and cdemu EnvoyRising was over my level - Im proud Im even was able to convert the .daa file to .iso using poweriso13:43
tanathhc, well, i'm using their package actually13:44
hctanath, "their" package?13:44
EnvoyRisingfrold: no. i found a "dee dee dee" method.. that would have allowed you to right click and select mount, lol13:44
tanathhc, i really shouldn't need to compile. i've found that leads to unnecessary problems at times13:44
EnvoyRisingfor the record. I apologize if me saying "dee dee dee method" offended anyone13:44
tanathhc, the official amsn package13:44
froldEnvoyRising: too late, but thanks :D13:44

ilLorenzhi! can somebody help me install lrmi in order to use vbetest? thanks?13:47
wu47345FlorisNL: maybe the e1000 driver is already loaded in the initrd, so the option setting has no effect13:47
Kutag1EnvoyRising, I could connect to my wireless network so easily :S13:48
hctanath, that's why i'm suggesting to just compile it from their source ...13:48
tanathhc, hmm... synaptic says amsn is not installed :/13:48
EnvoyRisingKutag1: i could too under ubuntu13:48
frederificKutag1: are you using the nv driver? Check at System > Admin > Restricted Drivers Manager13:48
hctanath, correct since you compiled it from source13:48
tanathhc, again, no i didn't13:48
EnvoyRisingtry doing it with a distro that doesn't have autohardware detection13:48
Kutag1Frederific, yeah i enabled that one earlier13:48
tanathhc, for the 3rd time, i used the official package13:48
Kutag1but I think that it is a wrong detection13:48
hctanath, you just said you didnt ... and got that other message13:48
frederificKutag1: oh, sorry, can't help then :(13:48
tanathhc, hm?13:48
Kutag1I appreciate your try to help me :)13:49

bazhangsudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg try this in a terminal Kutag113:49
tanathhc, i was originally using the version from the ubuntu repository, which worked until i updated this morning. now i'm using the package from the amsn site13:49
FlorisNLwu47345: how would I check that?13:49
hctanath, which means you didn't compile from source but not installed from the repo?13:50
tanathhc, the new repo version gave me the pastebin output. the package from the site gave me the tkxcimage error13:50
Kutag1Bazhang, should I go for nv or nvidia?13:50

EnvoyRisinghc: i didn't get a reply13:51
hcoh =,= stupid thing ...13:51
wu47345wu47345: go to an empty directory and uncompress your initrd there: gzip -cd /boot/initrd.img-`uname -r` | cpio --extract --make-directories13:51
EnvoyRisingare they blocked by default? pms that is?13:51

FlorisNLwu47345: Ok, I've done that.13:52
hcEnvoyRising, yeah i do13:52
hcEnvoyRising, i'm not auth'd to the system thus i can't send pms13:53
Kutag1ah jtravnick, well so what do you recommend?13:53
wu47345FlorisNL: now do this in the directory: find . -name e1000.ko13:53
EnvoyRisinghc: oh, you didn't register. well register dammit13:53
hcEnvoyRising, nick in use =,= and the one i DID register i lost the pass to13:53
kazim59How do we control the permissions on a vfat mounted filesystem? The partition is mounted, but some directories are not readable for my user. For root, they are accessible. chmod & chown don't work.13:53

wu47345FlorisNL: so you need to rebuild your initrd with e1000 module blacklisted. but i don't know how to do that.13:55
bazhangCorruptTerrorist: well it is still only Alpha5--best be patient ;]13:55
kazim59EnvoyRising: yes13:55
FlorisNLwu47345: Ok. What exactly would that do, rebuilding initrd with e1000 blacklisted?13:56
EnvoyRisingkazim59: maybe you could change permissions for the user instead of the file?13:56
markitis there something like  snapshot.debian.net for ubuntu? I need older version of some packages13:56
wu47345FlorisNL: do you know what a initrd is good for?13:56
kazim59EnvoyRising: I did sudo chmod. But it says Operation not permitted. I told you its vfat not ext3.13:56
EnvoyRisingmarkit: backports?13:56
jtravnickKutag1, ok thats the same res im running so yea i would try shuting off your effects and see if that helps any13:56
FlorisNLwu47345: not really, actually. Is it the image that gets loaded when the machine boots?13:57

crush_grooveI rebooted last night and now I have what looks like another panel at the bottom of my screen that has never been there .. http://www.picpaste.de/Screenshot_9.png Look like maybe my wallpaper changes dimensions any Ideas13:57
EnvoyRisingkazim59: oh ok. did you do a clean logout of windows? i know if i suspended windows or didn't shutdown properly i was forced out of that partition entirely13:57
Kutag1Ok jtravnick, going to try it13:57
wu47345FlorisNL: its an _optional_ image. the image which _must_ be loaded is the kernel image.13:57
kazim59EnvoyRising: I didn't boot to windows for a month or so. And I don't remember how was the logout :(13:57
jtravnickKutag1, cant hurt and can always turn them back on if that dont work13:58
FlorisNLwu47345: so this is like a fail-safe image?13:58
kazim59EnvoyRising: the owner of those files is root, and group is plugdev13:58
wu47345FlorisNL: an initrd serves as a preliminary root filesystem. so kernel modules can be loaded before mounting the actual root filesystem13:58
wu47345FlorisNL: no, there is no fail safe image13:58
FlorisNLwu47345: Ah ok13:58

All i have to do is select my wifi network on the top right corner of my screen and put my password and it connects just fine. However on my laptop which has ubuntu 7.04, when i do the same thing it tries to connect but never does. Anyone have any idea as to what could be the problem and how to13:59
zulerdongle fix it? Thanks in advance im desperate to get wifi on my laptop since I can only keep it connected with an ethernet cable while its on the floor..13:59
EnvoyRisingkazim59: or sudo su instead of sudo chmod13:59
FlorisNLwu47345: Ok, so the initrd gets replaced by the actual root filesystem once its mounted?13:59
EnvoyRisingother than that, i'm out of ideas13:59
filthpigI'm trying to install a game through Cedega, but installation stops, claiming my hard drive is full. Ubuntu also notified me about this, but they're talking about / ... does Cedega use some temp dir on / during install? my /home has 74 gb free space...14:00
kazim59EnvoyRising: Got it. Thanks. I'll try adding myself to plugdev group.14:00
EnvoyRisinghischild: i like the long name better..so much more tab completion friendly14:00
wu47345FlorisNL: yes. the tools in the initrd load the appropriate driver modules like ide and ext3, search for the actual root filesystem (by its uuid) and then mount it14:00
hischildEnvoyRising, yeah i'll stick with it then :p14:01
FlorisNLwu47345: Ok. Interesting.14:01
hischildit's also registered and i remember the pass this time :p14:01
Kutag1jtravnick, it appears that the lag was caused by the desktop effects14:01
FlorisNLwu47345: So why would I need to blacklist e1000.ko then? Is loaded from the initrd instead of the e1000.ko on the root filesystem?14:01
EnvoyRisinghischild: and maybe i could always run tech help for your mod's irc channel :P14:01
malociteMorning all, does anyone have experience solving the problem of the ubuntu slowdown?  My system seems to be getting slower by the week with ubuntu and I don't know why14:01

Oli```My keyboard keeps locking up when I use some apps that steal the keypresses (VMware and Wine, mainly but also native games). This usually means the keyboard thinks I'm holding that key down and unfortunately that makes the system almost unusable. Logging out and in again or restarting X (same thing?) fixes this issue but is very destructive to my workflow. Is there another way to fix it? Like resetting the keyboard?14:06
EnvoyRisingknowbot: no. to find where any program is installed, just use the "which" command in terminal14:06

zulerdongleno one know how to get wifi to work in ubunut 7.04 with a rt73 chipset?14:07
zulerdonglehi everyone. Im just having some trouble getting my wifi to work in ubuntu. I have guts 7.10 on my desktop and my dwl-g122 rev. C1 (rt73 chipset) works fine. All i have to do is select my wifi network on the top right corner of my screen and put my password and it connects just fine. However on my laptop which has ubuntu 7.04, when i do the same thing it tries to connect but never does. Anyone have any idea as to what could be the problem and how to14:07
zulerdongle fix it? Thanks in advance im desperate to get wifi on my laptop since I can only keep it connected with an ethernet cable while its on the floor..14:07

USN1520blogcrawler, any chance you could tell me how to access profile directory and the trash in the terminal?15:24

Jonathan_LHorizonXP: Tried modyfying the entries in the menu?15:24
HorizonXPJonathan_L: no I haven't; they worked before, haven't touched them15:24
luichii have to do this no?15:24
luichi If all else fails, or if you only have access to floppies, then first, download the Debian minimal-install floppies. Then, install Debian. Once installed, download the UNetbootin deb package using wget $unetbootin.deb, install it using dpkg -i $unetbootin.deb, then once done, reboot, and select UNetbootin in the GRUB menu.15:24
blogcrawlerUSN1520: what do u mean with profile dir? home?15:24
WebspotanonA1: I think you just referenced the wrong nick15:25
USN1520yes my user files15:25
HorizonXPJonathan_L: basically, 'oocalc', 'oowrite', etc, don't work, but 'openoffice' does work15:25
anonA1Webspot yeah i did ;)15:25
Jonathan_LHorizonXP: You could try modifying them to make them work again by setting the terminal commands15:25
blogcrawlerUSN1520: simply type "cd ~/" and press enter15:25

ubotuSeaninSeattle: To compile modules and drivers that are not bundled with the standard !kernel, install the relevant package, usually called "<modulename>-source", and run « sudo module-assistant » (you will have to do this again after kernel updates). To prevent specific modules from loading, see !blacklist16:54

toddprince_jammys: thats because . is not in your path, that is no problem here18:29
ArthurArchnixscript is probably the wrong word... anyway, I think "cp -R /humancustom/48x48 /humancustom/32x32 is the right command to copy the original files to their new dir, right? Then I just repeat it for 28x28, etc...18:29

chazcoWill try a force reinstall of it, but odd that it doesnt work18:45
GRocketdo I have to include a user group? Or can I just use User and the rest?18:45
IndyGunFreakorionjoe: when you go through the install process, you will partition your hard drive... 1 will have Windows(presumably), one will ave Ubuntu.... assuming ll goes well, at the end of installing Ubuntu, the installer will install Grub onto your hard drive, when you boot your PC, in your grub menu, you will be able to select your OS...18:45
orionjoeIndyGunFreak: same as installing a dual boot from xp?18:45
wastedyouthWhenever I run the synaptic package manager, it asks for a password.  This password window leaves a ghost image when I'm done with it.  If I goto COmpiz setting and uncheck and recheck any plugin it will go away.  I've reinstalled the packages and ubuntu and still get the ghost image.  Anybody know how I might fix this?18:46

orionjoeok, thanks18:46
olegfinksteel_lady: heh, I'm definitely not the best person to talk to about nautilus, but as a workaround you may run it as root (be careful). Or ask someone with real knowledge there.18:46
chazcoArthurArchnix - Always used Totem for this. Did a system reinstall today and nothing. Sound is up and running.18:46
ArthurArchnixchazco: I say that because, rythmbox should automatically install the codec support for mp3's if it doesn't detect a proper install...18:46
steel_ladyoilegfink, thanx for help18:46
IndyGunFreakorionjoe: yes, i didn't realize that was your question, yes, Vista *should* dual boot in a similar fashion as XP/2k/98, etc.18:46
ArthurArchnixchazco: And I'm not sure if totem would do that for you18:46
chazcoArthurArchnix - Forgot to say, Totem is offering to install support, but it didnt need to last time so im surprised18:47
olegfinksteel_lady: np, I wish I would be really helpful :(18:47
olegfinks/would/could/18:47
orionjoeok, I'll give it a try. thank you18:47
ArthurArchnixchazco: ah... that is strange... why don't you let totem try and take care of it...18:47
steel_ladyolegfink, you did, at least it is receiving ingormation :-)18:47
chazcoArthurArchnix - The restricted pack normally does it, so was suspecting something broken somewhere18:47

ArthurArchnixchazco: Perhaps a problem with restricted extras, you're right there. Letting totem reinstall or fix problem might work though, and shouldn't harm your system.18:48
brobostigonchazco: try xmms or audacious, they already have all the codecs installed, you dont need to install all the codecs seperate18:48

AtomicSparkrobot: wep is an old encryption (the original) for wireless. it is very unsecure by modern standards. you want either wpa or wpa 2 (better). wep can be cracked in less then 30 mins. i've seen it done in 15. you'll have to log into your router and change these settings. probably will say wpa-psk or something. i use aes encryption rather then tkip or whatever.19:22

SeveasZaphodBeeblebrox, no, you'll need to find the docx-to-doc converter on google19:23
CorruptTerroristbrb installing ubuntu19:23
ompaulZaphodBeeblebrox, get the author to save as .doc19:23

Genius314What program can I use to edit cursor files?19:24
ompaulvita_, no idea - so I suggest you use iptables to do that job for you with the list19:24
sinboxvita_,  you can get the sourcecode I think for peerguardian but you'll have to build it fomr that check at the bottom of that page: http://phoenixlabs.org/pg2/19:24
AtomicSparkzcat[1]: mm backrack. thats why you use mac allow lists. :D or just use a cable. lol.19:24

Seveaschazco, there is afaik also a command-line version of gdebi19:28
kitchextknight: umm there is a few cards that are good intel ones along with some other chipsets stay away from broadcom you sort of need to know the card chipset19:28
spork969installing-mytht: i have no idea what that is but i will check it out19:28
Seveaschazco, as long as it's freely redistributable, it can go in multiverse19:28
AtomicSparkzcat[1]: i dont think your neighbors care that much. :P the only solution is to keep your network secure on the inside too. you can always use vpns for sensitive material.19:28

tdawgedoggis there a programs folder or something?19:55
mjw-rawbeef kubuntu-desktop is just a meta-package. Removing it will not actually uninstall anything19:55
MasterShrektdawgedogg, a tar file is probably a source tarball, youll need to compile the program19:55
zcat[1]rawbeef: kubuntu-desktop is a metapackage.. if you didn't specifically install all of the other packages it depends on, they will all get removed by apt-get autoremove if the package that depended on them has been removed.19:55
Seveastdawgedogg, avoid installing from tarballs. There are packages for almost everything19:55

DB44Flannel, k, tnx, hopeflly it will be fixed :)20:08
FlannelDB44: eclipse itself provides the actual eclipse (and the desktop file).  I guess you could create dummy packages to satisfy the plugin thing (although I'm not sure if the plugin package is required to use plugins)20:08

chris0hi all, real quick (I hope) question. I'm running fluxbox on my Gutsy machine. When I open any GTK app (firefox, thunderbird, etc. ), it uses the default theme with really big fonts. I've tried using gtk-theme-switch to change it and it doesn't work. I've also tried editing .gtkrc and .gtkrc.mine manually. I just can't force GTK apps to use anything other than the default theme. Anyone else seen this? Any ideas on how to fix it?20:29

EdSquareCatnvidia CK804 and nvidia CK804 - IEC958 + alsa an such are my choices21:20
chris0Makuseru: the 1337 nerdy way to do it is to go into your xorg.conf and add the resolution you'd like to use manually21:20
Seveasstorm-zen, it has and you do :)21:20
[Hardy]TuTUXGFiskejohn, what mount command?21:20

mo0n_sniper<Egeste> maybe there is a open source driver for your card21:22
chris0Makuseru: it's /etc/X11/xorg.conf. You're looking for a bunch of video resolutions. If you want, for example, 1280x1024, just stick in "1280x1024" (in quotes) in among the resolutions21:22
blindwhite_eagle: it's connected to a windows laptop... it works perfectly :|21:22
[Hardy]TuTUXGFiskejohn, %d stands for device name, like /dev/sda /dev/sdb21:23
storm-zenSeveas: It's not finding the command?  ( Nor is it finding the 'man 'command )... did I do something wicked?21:23
white_eagleblind: :S21:23
Fiskejohn[Hardy]TuTUXG: Set a command to be run before connecting to your device (e.g. a mount command) here.21:23
EdSquareCati'm gonna make sure its activated21:23
Egestemo0n_sniper, I happen to know taht my card is supported under an open-sou7rce driver but I do not know how to implement it21:23
Makuseruchris0: so if i add abunch of resolutions, i can choose them from the GUI later?21:23
marx2k__where can one get a listing for all bash aliases like %d, %f, etc21:23

mo0n_sniper<Egeste> try it for size21:24
Fiskejohn[Hardy]TuTUXG: Empty commands are not executed21:24
chris0Makuseru: sure, np. the only trick is if you have an xorg.conf like mine with no resolution lines, but I think that's pretty rare.21:24
Egestemo0n_sniper I do not know how to properly stop the current driver and implement the new driver21:24
Fiskejohn[Hardy]TuTUXG: Have any idea of what to type in there ?21:24
[Hardy]TuTUXGFiskejohn, for u ipod?21:24

ompaul!filenames21:25
ubotuFile names in Ubuntu are case sensitive, MyFile is not the same as myfile, and if you put spaces in there and use a console you need to "escape" the space, thus "gedit My\ File.txt"21:25
Makuseruchris0: it has alot of resolutions already listed in there21:25
hspaanschazco: sed "s/^#//"21:25
chris0Makuseru: good. add whatever resolution you want into there.21:25
mo0n_sniper<Egeste> to unsinstall you current driver go to system>administration>restricted drivers21:25
mo0n_sniper<Egeste> and unchek it21:25

Egestemo0n_sniper is that like editing the blacklist?21:25
Fiskejohn[Hardy]TuTUXG: so i type in default ?21:25

rawbeefhspaans: i'm sorry, i can't make head or tails of this :\ is there no solution?21:38
EdSquareCati'd be happy with the tiniest bleep :}21:39
EnvoyRisinghischild: you have to delete the line from the menu.lst file don't you?21:39
EdSquareCatbesides the system beep21:39
EdSquareCathaha21:39
crispy_chunksfollowed any guides so far?21:39
EnvoyRisinghischild: or is that too easy for you? :P21:39
Makuseruchris0: nothing21:39
hischildEnvoyRising, yeah.... well the thing is, danilo's box crashes at some point ... thus he has to edit in grub on boot up .... so yeah that'd be 2 easy :p21:39
prince_jammysEdSquareCat: echo -e "\a"  :)21:39
hischildEnvoyRising, he has to edit it on bootup ... which is where i'm lost which line/words it were21:40
EdSquareCatyes, a couple months ago i tried to fix it for a while21:40
chris0Makuseru: ok, I'm firing up my kubuntu box to look around21:40
danilohischild: now I see that the install partitions (ext3 and swap) are inside an extended partition, does that matter?21:40
Makuseruchris0: ok, thanks21:40
crispy_chunkstry to run alsamixer and turn down everything with IECxxxx21:40
EnvoyRisinghischild: haven't a clue, but can get one..21:40
EdSquareCatnothin happens21:40

edvpcI'm new to ubuntu and I am having trouble with java plugin for firefox21:40
avisdanilo, you should include a /home directory in case you'd like to reinstall and not lose your data21:40
hischild!java | edvpc21:41
ubotuedvpc: 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)21:41
danilohischild: tks21:41
hspaansrawbeef: short answer? put your money on something else for now21:41

jonnymacquick question for the Ubuntu buffs, if a laptop is only W-Lan how is there any way for me to get it to detect normal/modern wi-fi connections?21:41
Egestemo0n_sniper available?21:41
daniloavis: tks, but it is a fresh install so no problem, it never opened21:41
alberthow to configure x.org to use the latest nVidia driver? coz i got blank screen after install it.21:41
prince_jammysEdSquareCat: sorry, bad joke.  typed it after you mentioned the tiniest bleep21:41
edvpcI've installed it and have made sure that it is my default but it still doesn't work21:41
chowardFound my solution.  For those with an Audigy card run alsamixer from shell and mute <IEC958 0> This turns off 'Optical Raw'21:41
chris0Makuseru: OK Got it. Go to K -> System Settings and click on "Monitor and Display"21:42
EdSquareCatoh haha! the bleep was so tiny i didn't even here it over the the smack of the "enter" key21:42
mo0n_sniper<Egeste> kind of i'm trying to compile someting21:42
Makuseruchris0: alright21:42
CorruptTerroristif anyone here uses/used wubi... can they pm me please?21:42
Scunizijonnymac, W-Lan sounds like wireless lan which is the same thing as saying wi-fi..21:42
avisyes danilo i was just thinking about the long haul.  with only swap and / if you wanted to reinstall you'd lose your data.  / only needs to be about 12GB and the rest could go to /home21:42
hischildEnvoyRising, found it:-)21:42
chris0Makuseru: get into administrator mode and click the "Hardware" tab21:42
daniloavis: tks!21:42
Makuseruchris0: alright21:43
crispy_chunksEdSquareCat: so it works now? :p21:43
jonnymachmm, just a friend has an ancient laptop (all of it in german) and she can't connect/detect to my wi-fi system21:43
Scunizijonnymac, unless you're talking about an "aircard" from sprint, verizon etc..21:43
Steve176Hi, have got wireless networking with WPA working under 7.10 but need to restart networking manually after each reboot. Any ideas? Thx21:43
chris0Makuseru: Pick Monitor #1 and hit the Configure...button21:43
EnvoyRisinghischild: where was it?21:43
Makuseruchris0: alright21:43
EnvoyRisinghischild: i found where to specify the file to use, but not actually change it21:43
EdSquareCatyep, i'll just reprogram all my programs to use the system beep for everything!21:43
Scunizijonnymac, do you have encription enabled on your lan?21:43
EdSquareCatit'll be wonderful :}21:43
crispy_chunkshave you turned IEC playback down all the way?21:44
chris0Makuseru: if you know your monitor's manufacturer and model number, choose that, otherwise, go under Generic and pick your screen resolution21:44
EnvoyRisinghischild: or was it update-grub? lol21:44
crispy_chunksand set IEC playback source to PCM?21:44
jonnymacher computer is strange to me, how can I use terminal command to show me all available wireless systems?21:44
avisSteve176, i used wicd to solve all my network-manager problems.  i noticed that things were more stable once i had a proper /etc/networking/interfaces file21:44
hischilddanilo, please on the next boot on grub, press e. Go down to the kernel line. press e again to edit this line. Move to the end of the line and see if you see the words quiet or spash. Remove either one of these 2 if you see them. Press enter. Press b to boot up. Pay special attention when you boot wether you see any panics or other error messages.21:44
robdigSteve176: in /etc/network/interfaces do you have your interface set to auto? like auto eth121:44
fliegenderfroschEdSquareCat: "beep" is your program then21:44
rawbeef:\21:44
hischildEnvoyRising, no, it has to be done before you can boot into your box :-)21:44
Steve176avis i tried wicd but couldn't get it working with WPA.21:44
Steve176or WEP, just unencrypted21:44
hischildEnvoyRising, look at what i wrote danilo21:44
EdSquareCatyes21:44
crispy_chunksthat driver for that soundcard is sooooooo bugged ;(21:44
Steve176robdig auto wlan021:45
Makuseruchris0: ok, fount my manuf and model21:45
rawbeefUsing a broadcom 43xx i'm able to connect to networks using wifiradar, but i can't get packets21:45
rawbeefah!21:45
Scunizijonnymac, that I don't know. You could in stall wifiradar.. for gui of same thing.. could also be that her wireless card needs a wrapper..21:45
avisvery strange Steve176 mine works fine with WPA.  be sure to have a good /etc/networking/interfaces file regardless21:45
speeddemon8803Steve176, what kind of wireless card do you have?21:45
chris0Makuseru: if it's a widescreen, make sure to select Widescreen in the Image Format dropdown. Now hit OK.21:45
Makuseruchris0: and i can choose bigger resolutions now21:45
Makuseruchris0: thank21:45
Makuseruchris0: you very much21:45
EnvoyRisinghischild: does that really show all the grub options? i was under the impression that was only for kernel options21:45
chris0Makuseru: no problem21:45
komputesrawbeef: have you tried NDISwrapper'in the windows drivers?21:45
Steve176avis, yes interface file is fine - works perfectly with manual restart21:45
Scunizijonnymac, sudo apt-get install wifi-radar21:45
robdigSteve176: that should do it if wlan0 is your wireless card...21:45
Steve176speeddemon, its one of those nightmare braodcoms21:46
EdSquareCathow do i set the iec playback source to pcm?21:46
EdSquareCatdidnt see that21:46
rawbeefkomputes: no21:46
danilohischild: tks!! I`ll try it out now.21:46
avisin that case Steve176 i dont know why you'd have to manually start it.  sorry21:46
jonnymacproblem for is that it's all in German, kay, will try that, thanks21:46
Danhallo21:46
komputesrawbeef: broadcom is a little tricky at times21:46
b4l74z4ri installed ubuntu yesterday and i partitioned manually, i had one windows partition and one free space, so i created a / partition in the free space and sized it so that there would be 2048mb of free space behind it, i then mounted the 2048mb's of free space as swap so that i would be able to hibernate (my ram is 2048mb), after the system was installed i saw that the swap file wasn't 2048 but 1.9gb instead, how can this have happened?21:46
hischildEnvoyRising, it depends on which line you select from that list :-) you get like a few options where you can edit stuff ... and the kernel line shows you the things like quiet and splash21:46
hischildEnvoyRising, at least ... if i'm right on it21:46
speeddemon8803oh, i have a intel pro/wireless...now THATS a nightmare Steve17621:46
Danwhat???????????21:46
rawbeefkomputes: do people ever get it working?21:46
Steve176lol. it can't be as bad as this pos21:46
EnvoyRisinghischild: well i'll certainly have learned something if (when) you're right21:46
Scunizijonnymac, there is a way to change to english..  I don't know how. someone here will.21:46
hischildEnvoyRising, :-) we'll know soon enough once danilo returns21:47
danilohischild: I`ll try it out now and hopefully will come back with good news21:47
abomb83hi, i'm new to irc as well as ubuntu... there are so many people on here, do I just ask questions in the main chat?21:47

Scunizianyone know how to switch the system language from german to english?  If you do please direct it to johhymac21:48
komputesb4l74z4r: It's possible that it's calculating 1MB as 1024 instead of 1000, or that oneof your ram modules are faulty21:48

hischildabomb83, as you can probably see, we're preceding things with the names we're pointing the answers/questions to. This helps us as we can make out things easier :-)21:48
Steve176avis right now that doesn't sound like such a bad idea. It's taken 3 days to get this far21:48
Scunizijonnymac, you may not have to have internet connection to change the language.. maybe just a live cd.21:48
avisSteve176, you want me usb adaptor model number ?  i can fetch it real quic21:48
abomb83well, I  was trying to enable dual monitors when I somehow lost my xorg.conf as well as the backup21:48
Steve176it's ok, I'm UK based it is probably different. I'll persist for a bit, then research something that's "known to work"21:49
jonnymacok well, I might figure it out. I think the live cd is a good idea...21:49
Steve176avis thanks though21:49

zulerdonglehi there. i have an external lg dvd drive and it doesnt appear in my computer in ubuntu 7.10, how can i mount it or what do i have to do to access it ? thanks22:10
hischildRedCyper, if you're speaking to a person, precede the answer/question with the name.22:11
leblinuxalright thank you stdin and Flannel22:11
storm-zenEnvoyRising: No.  See the relationship between ubuntu and debian, as explained on ubuntu's website.22:11
CorruptTerroristhow do i sort out a grub error 21?22:11
FlannelEnvoyRising: sure it is.  Its much easier to just install debian fresh though.22:11
storm-zenFlannel: That wasn't my understanding.  The site says that some apps aren't compatible with the debian releases.22:11
hischildRedCyper, i'll try to help you out, but please, repeat the question on a single line with my name on it so it gets a color22:12
storm-zen... or did I misunderstand?22:12
RedCyper@hischild and here my problem: rootpath=/cdromrw;target=iso;correcting md5sums for testcd...; writing imagefile iso...; size of boot image is 4 sectors ->no emulation; gensioimage: no space left on device. cannot fwrite 32768*122:12
Flannelstorm-zen: no, they're not.  He'd have to take his ubuntu release, change his sources.list, and then do a lot of manual installation of stuff.22:12
EnvoyRisingFlannel: i figured as much. debian just doesn't get my wifi config correct, and in order to do it manually i need to have a wired connection, which i don't22:12
leblinuxFlannel, is there a way to customize/replace the splash picture with another one?22:12
Flannelstorm-zen: It's doable, although not clean or automated in any way22:12
Flannelleblinux: Of course22:12
hischildRedCyper, it appears that the place that command is trying to write to is full22:13
ompaulEnvoyRising, and then when you get a kernel up grade it will die so work it out then22:13
RedCyper@hischild try to burn an iso to an usb-device22:13
EnvoyRisingFlannel: which i new about. i just didn't know if ubuntu did something funky with the kernel that rendered it an impossible task22:13
storm-zenFlannel: Ok... so, in other words, it would be pretty nasty, and in some ways, a regression, right?22:13
FlannelEnvoyRising: ah, if you go ubuntu -> debian, it'll be identical to just using debian, so it wont help any22:13
leblinuxFlannel, where do I put the picture?22:13
EnvoyRisingompaul: grr.. thats the part i was worried about22:13
g0thI deactivated Nautilus since it is quite ressource intensive and I never ever use the desktop manager. Though after doing this I just see a black background.

hischildRedCyper, why don't you extract it to the usb stick?22:13

hspaanssoto: make sure you loaded all modules needed22:32
Pelolater folks22:32
theXorcistluckyshot: not that I know of... but a simple apt-get should do it. Let me see if I can find something.22:32

CorruptTerroristanyone familiar with the jmicron bug?22:33
strooglechecked ip addresses and they all seem fine22:33
mrpocketswell  I got the myth TV screen up. but I'm not sure what i'm looking at22:33
PriceChildCorruptTerrorist, "the"?22:33
storm-zendanand: No.  Just found out that I need to do that now.22:33
strooglecan log in at the command line22:33
theXorcistluckyshot: for SSH you can "sudo apt-get install ssh openssh-server"22:33
sotohspaans: Installation should load the modules automatically no?22:33
ompaulCorruptTerrorist, let me help you here - you either got it or you not got it you called that out several hours ago22:33
ompauland you since seemed to write to your disks22:33
luckyshottheXorcist, okay let me try that, sec22:33
stroogleanyone?22:33
hspaanssoto: only if you run Sun Solaris 1022:33
theXorcistluckyshot: that will install a secure shell client, which will give you SHELL access to your computer from another computer (like bash)22:33
kostkonBodsda, set the camera to work as a usb mass storage device and not ptp. that way you wil be able to access files other than photos.22:34
CorruptTerroristompaul, what?22:34
theXorcistluckyshot: you'll need openssh-server on the computer you're going to be SSHing to22:34
kostkonBodsda, it will work as a usb drive22:34
sotohspaans: I'm not running kerberos. What modules should I be looking for?22:34
ompaulCorruptTerrorist, the bug in question - write it into google and have a look22:34
theXorcistluckyshot: and keep in mind, this is only going to give you command-line access22:34
luckyshottheXorcist, i want remote acess though22:34
Bodsdakostkon, any idea how i would go about doing that? is it a setting on the camara?22:34
CorruptTerroristompaul, i have, several different ways to no avail22:34
gopp!egroupware22:34
Centaur5Does anybody know of a good program to look for deleted files on ext3 partitions?22:34
ubotuSorry, I don't know anything about egroupware - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi22:34
Bodsda!anyone > stroogle      please read pm from ubotu22:34
kostkonBodsda, yes, check you camera menus and configurations for such an option22:34
theXorcistluckyshot: this is one way of remote access. Another way (which will let you use GUI) is by using VNC or RDP22:35
Bodsdakostkon, cheers dude, will check now22:35
gopp!egroupware22:35
kostkonBodsda, :)22:35
theXorcistluckyshot: let me look up the info for RDP/VNC22:35
LPis there a way to rename an interface? in my iftab I've set "eth1" but it's being called eth2... I've tried "ip link set dev eth2 name eth1", after reboot nothing has changed22:35
luckyshottheXorcist, okay, thanks22:35
SyeakeyAnyone able to tell me how I can decrease the power/effectiveness to my ATI video card on a laptop? Like how the catalyst control center could do for windows?22:35
danandstorm-zen - ok. you should get a new listing under the system -> preferences menu called advanced desktop appearance settings. that will take you into main config for compiz.22:35
speeddemon8803gopp, if the bot doesnt respond to a command in question the first time, it could be lagging, be patient :)22:35
amenadoMasterMel-> I cant seem to find a bookmarked site regarding 4gig size files22:35

luckyshottheXorcist, okay, whats better vnc or rdp?22:38

amx109anybody have the hardy desktop iso handy? im trying to install fro usb, using alt-iso but need the vmlinuz+initrd from desktop so i can read the vfat fs on the usb stick to mount it as a dir for the installer to see....22:41
zcat[1]also when I say USB drive I really mean 1G mp3 player :)22:41
luckyshottheXorcist, okay22:41
CorruptTerroristompaul, one last question... what if if doesn't work... how do i access windows?22:41
hspaanssoto: no usermapping is when user soto is on server uid 1001 and on client 1002. usermapping corrects this22:41
zcat[1]this might get a little weird22:41
theXorcistluckyshot: hope it helps -- i gotta get back to studying for school :P22:41
kostkonBodsda, hmmmm. if you use a usb hub, try to connect it directly to the pc.22:42

Bodsdakostkon, ok, i get a dialog box, asking if i want to import photo's (which i dont want to do)22:44
iceschademaybe... no it told someone else not to cuss22:44
sotohspaans: The UIDs turn out to be the same on both systems but the file owner on the mounted NFS partition is some other UID.22:44
strooglehspaans - does that answer the question?22:44
iceschadehell22:44
hischildiceschade, it's not here atm :( doesnt's how for me22:44
amx109zcat[1], seems they left out the kernel module for reading vfat filesystems. u get to the point in the install where it tries to mount the cdrom drive and fails.22:44
iceschadewow, it IS gone.22:44
zcat[1]amx109, I'll reformat it ext2 or iso if need be..22:44
speeddemon8803yeah guys we said that already, hehe22:44
hspaansstroogle: look for the keyword "port"22:45
iceschade:D22:45
kostkonBodsda, you get the dialog even if usb disk mode? nevertheless, do you see it in nautilus now as a drive?22:45
kostkoneven in*22:45
CorruptTerroristright... off to boot ubuntu under wubi22:45

iceschadeadios everyone.22:45
hspaanssoto: then it should be fine22:45
Bodsdakostkon, ah, yes,,cool,.,.cheers dude,.thanks alot22:45
hspaansstroogle: keyword "bind-address" is the other one22:45
kostkonBodsda, nice! :)22:46
Odd-rationaleYou know when you shut the lid of your laptop, the backlighting turns off. How do I query when that happens? I'm writing a shell script that would like to use that information. Thanks!22:46
amx109zcat[1], was just a headsup. im sat here in the middle of an install hoping someone around here will chuck me the files i need. really dont wanna d/l the desktop iso for two files22:46
Thomas7I try to share my internet connection with other computers in a LAN does someone know how to do this i'm trying now for about 5 hours22:46
sotohspaans: Alright, thanks for your help22:46
Bodsdakostkon, dont suppose you know anything about 'mobile phone games' do you?22:46
hspaanssoto: np22:46
speeddemon8803!hi | all22:46

speeddemon8803it came in beginners so i know its back somewhere.22:47
SuhailHi guys, So I have vista installed right now and I want to install ubuntu but I don't want to get rid of windows for now22:47
BodsdaCorruptTerrorist, the bot is called 'ubotu'22:47
speeddemon8803Hey bodsda :)22:47
SuhailSo there's two options22:47
CorruptTerroristBodsda, i know22:47
Suhailand the default seems to erase everything and install on the main harddrive index22:47
hischildSuhail, try to keep it all one a single line :-)22:47
kostkonBodsda, not really. do you mean java (j2me) games? do you have a problem installing them, e.g. using bluetooth? I actually only know how to program in j2me22:47
altermdhello world, I just try Irc to day.22:47
SuhailAnd the other is manual22:47
CorruptTerrorist!wubi | Suhail22:48
Suhailheh22:48
CorruptTerroristphail22:48
speeddemon8803The bot is down for some maintenance i believe.22:48
mrpocketsSuhail, you need to either use two HDDs22:48
mrpocketsor two partitions22:48
amx109zcat[1]: vmlinuz and initrd.img22:48
speeddemon8803hold on guys, it will be back in a few minutes im sure :)22:48
__mikemCorruptTerrorist: ubotu aint here right now22:48
CorruptTerroristSuhail, you could use wubi if you wanted to test for a while22:48
kostkonBodsda, but I ran j2me only on a palm pda22:48
mrpocketsbut dualbooting on one HDD if you've already got windows installed is a sonuvabitch22:48
Bodsdakostkon, the games that are preloaded on my phone are (.jad) formats, do you know what it stands for, and where i can get (.jad) games?22:48
Sidneyboa noite22:48
SyeakeyI want to decrease the power my video card uses, how can I do that?22:48
Suhailmrpockets: I have 1 partion and have freespace on it. I want to install ubuntu towards that free space.22:48
hischildSuhail, how much free space?22:49
Suhail30 GB22:49
mrpocketsthen you'll need to reallocate that freespace into a seperate partition22:49
strooglehspaans - it has port 3306 which is right i think, and socket = /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock, the bind-address is the localhost 127.0.0.122:49
hischildSuhail, then you can just install it. be sure during installation NOT to remove the partition.22:49
dhanar_10how can i check whether an ntp server is active or not?22:49
SuhailHonestly, everytime I enter the partition utility for the ubuntu install package I get scared of ruining my Windows =()22:49
mrpocketshischild, ?22:49
Jack_Sparrowmrpockets: Dual boot..It is not hard at all... Please watch the language22:50
hischildSuhail, there's nothing to be afraid off.22:50
hischildmrpockets, what's up?22:50
kostkonBodsda, actually they are java games. you could find many on the net, although most of them for a price (through the maker of the game or a mobile provider). In most cases you just need to upload them to the phone.22:50
mrpocketsif hes got one partition with Vista on it and 30 gigs free space, he cant install Ubuntu onto the freespace of that partition...22:50
hspaansstroogle: and skip-networking has been commented out? then "netstat -na | grep 3306" should show something listening22:50
hischildmrpockets, why not?22:50
speeddemon8803ok....this is weird...22:50
kostkonBodsda, in most cases wil consist of one jad and one jar file, if I'm right22:50
Suhailhischild: When I run the install it has the default checked off but it seems like it's install ubuntu on the 90 GB of space I have with windows on it will just erase it...22:50
* speeddemon8803 looks around22:50
hischildSuhail, a second please22:51
Bodsdakostkon, ok, so can all modern('ish) phones handle java games, and do wou know where i could find some documentation on this?22:51
hischildmrpockets, why would he not be able to install ubuntu?22:51
Sidney#ubuntu-br22:51
zcat[1]amx109, http://kiwiarena.net.nz/files/hardy/  -- hardy a5 i386 desktop cd mounted by loopback, grab whatever you need.22:51
mrpocketsfirst of all, its most likely an NTFS partition...22:51
SuhailIt is.22:52
hischildmrpockets, i'm sure it's an ntfs partition vista is isntalled on22:52
=== AHA_ is now known as AHA
mrpocketsright...22:52
sc0tchIs there an aptitude console command that will show all installed packages that have an update available after doing an aptitude update? (I'm used to a GUI graphical update manager showing what packages have updates, but now need to use only console)22:52
hischildmrpockets, but that doesn't make a difference at all, since he installs it on the _free_ space he has, which is a total of 30gb22:52
mrpocketsyeah22:52
tony379Hi I'm in panic here, new to Ubuntu 201cFeisty201d, a quick question...how do I display a list of recently installed applications, don't need lots of detail, just name and date installed. Thankful for any assistance.22:52
mrpocketsfor one, I'm pretty sure Ubuntu won't install on an NTFS partition22:53
Suhailhischild: Verdict?22:53
danbhfivetony379: i can kinda help, can you give more reasons why you need this?22:53
mrpocketsseccondly, theres ALREADY a freaken OS on that partition..22:53
Suhailhischild: Right now my whole parition is one big ass 93 GB one with vista on it, how do I go forth?22:53
strooglehspaans - nothing about skip-networking that's not commented out - netstat -na | grep 3306 shows  'tcp blah blah LISTEN'22:53
kostkonBodsda, yes all new phones can run them, in one way or another. some games run only on some specific phones. I don't actually have a good documentation site to give you but by doing a detailed google search you will find useful things :)22:53
Jack_Sparrowmrpockets: The installer will shrink the ntfs and create the ubuntu and swap partitions.. please dont give out incorrect advice22:53
HinHinhmm... mrpockets it's possible to run ubuntu in windows :P22:53
HinHinvmware :P22:53
danandsc0tch - you can just do a sudo apt-get -s upgrade | less. this will only simulate an upgrade ie list the packages to be upgraded.22:53
hischildmrpockets, he has vista on a partition. NEXT to that partition he has _free_ space. This means _NO_ file system on it. He can create a new partition on it as ext3 and install grub with it and boot both right?22:53
strooglehspaans - nothing about skip-networking that's not commented out - netstat -na | grep 3306 shows  'tcp blah blah LISTEN'22:53
hischildmrpockets, or am i missing one magic part that blows it up?22:54
mrpocketsright22:54
__mikemHinHin: go with Virtual Box, vmware server isn't that good22:54
Suhailhischild: I have ONE parition that's 93 GB with vista on it.22:54
mrpocketsi wasnt aware Ubuntus installer automaticly reallocates it..22:54
hspaansstroogle: then you should be able to connect, but permissions within mysql may be incorrect22:54
hischildSuhail, do you have free space next to vista? y/n22:54
strooglehspaans - permissions eh?  what to check?22:54
Suhailhischild: This is new newbie but vista tells me I have 30 GB left =)22:54
tony379somebody installed new sofware and didn't tell me what? Something related to ALSA22:54
Suhailhischild: And ubuntu says I have 30 GB unused on that partition22:55
hischildmrpockets, ok i take it back, you're right. This is goin to be fun.22:55
HinHin__mikem, Virtual box... hmm... haven't heard of it22:55
HinHini'll take a look22:55
Bodsdakostkon, cool,.,. just 1 more thin,.,.is it possible to convert a gameboy rom into a java format, and the game still work?22:55
mrpocketshischild, lol its cool. I just didn't know if i'ev been smokign too much pot or what22:55
Suhailhischild: This is easy for me if I had seperated out 10 GB before but instead I just allocated it all to vista :-\22:55
hischildSuhail, i now see what mrpockets was saying. He was saying you have 30gb free on that partition. It means ubuntu will try to shrink your vista partition and use the reallocated space for it.22:55
amx109zcat[1]: grabbed the files i needed, thank you very much22:56
danbhfive!who > tony379 please you my name, I missed your message, but I have something coming22:56
Suhailhischild: Is it possible to take the 30 GB of freespace and allocate some of it in a NEW partition for ubuntu without pwning my windows?22:56
danbhfivels --help22:56
hspaansstroogle: is this an upgrade or a new installation?22:56
danbhfivewc22:56
hischildSuhail, the installer will try to shrink the partition windows is on and then create a new partition using the space it freed up.22:56
Suhailhischild: The default option seems like it installs over everything.22:56
hischildSuhail, there is however the risk that windows won't like it and complain a lot with the risk of reinstallation.22:56
hischildSuhail, no, default is to reallocate. The second and third are to use the full drive, cq use lvm on the full drive22:57
Suhailhischild: I read vista automatically shrinks so you don't have to worry =)22:57
hischildSuhail, ok22:57
nickrudSuhail: not to butt in here, but to butt in here: I'd recommend using vista's partition shrinker to make the space if you're worried at all. Then just point the ubuntu installer at the free space left over22:57
Suhailhischild: There's only a second option, not a third.22:57
kostkonBodsda, I don't think so. but a java gameboy emulator may exist that will allow you to play gameboy games on your mobile, for example. I don't really know if such an emulator for mobile phones exists, I just throw it as an idea. you could do a google search for java emulators22:57
strooglehspaans - new on a fresh 7.10 ubuntu install22:57
Suhailhischild: The second option = manual22:57
hischildSuhail, i have 4 or 5 options ...22:57
hischildSuhail, but i'm thinking in the lines of alternate install cd ... that's probably different22:58
hischildSuhail, then use the first one :-)22:58
zcat[1]cool, should have hardy on a stick pretty soon now :)22:58

hischildSuhail, i usually install using the alternate cd :-)22:58

hspaansstroogle: check if commandline options work or else the mysql forum may be a better place to continue your journey (you're not alone with these issues)22:58

mrunagity22:59
Suhailhischild: When you d-click install, it only presents 2 options, default which makes it seem like you're install on top of your whole partition and manual which lets you play around22:59

atheodoi need some help with activation my soundcard on an inspiron e52122:59
phuzionFor some reason, all of my files on my desktop are showing the same generic file icon, anyone know how to fix this?22:59
Suhailhischild: Mind screenshotting what you see, I really would rather not go through the headache of fucking up :P22:59
kostkonBodsda, no problem! happy that I helped you :)22:59
Bodsdaatheodo, what do you mean "activation" ?22:59
zcat[1]damn laptop keeps trying to connect to all the wifi points around here, had to turn wifi off22:59
atheodoi installed 7.1023:00
hischildSuhail, you can try to play around using manual. There you can shrink your current partition in size. Then use the newly freed space to install ubuntu.23:00
Suhailhischild: What's better for me? this desktop build or your alternate cd?23:00
nickrudphuzion: try selecting a different icon theme, system->prefs->appearance, custom button23:00
atheodoit says that it cannot find any sound compatible device23:00
Bodsdakostkon, can finally get music on my phone!!! ;~)23:00
hischildSuhail, what do you want me to screenshot?23:00
Suhailhischild: What you see for installing ubuntu on top of something23:00
hischildSuhail, no, it's that i know the menu's of the alternate from my head, just not the desktop :-)23:00
atheodoi get s speaker icon but with the stop sign on it23:00
Suhailhischild: oh...23:00
hischildSuhail, you can just install using desktop :-)23:00
Bodsdaatheodo, ok, can you use my name in your post plz, so i dont miss them,. and type      asoundconf list        into a terminal, tell me the output23:00
Suhailhischild: Via the first option?23:01
phuzionnickrud, didn't do anything23:01
reportingsjrIs there a way to convert a .avi file to .flv?23:01
hischildSuhail, first option --> ?? (type it please)23:01
zcat[1]reportingsjr, upload it to gootube ?23:01
nickrudphuzion: alt-f2 killall nautilus, that should cause it to restart and reread it's config.23:01
zcat[1]reportingsjr, I think ffmpeg does that conversion.. or vlc perhaps23:02

reportingsjrzcat[1], it's ~634 mb, a movie23:02
HinHinreportingsjr, yes there is23:02

zcat[1]reportingsjr, ffmpeg, and there's a fron ent I think named winff, it's not in repos tho23:02
HinHinreportingsjr, depends what attributes you append to it23:02
HinHinreportingsjr, :( unfortunely no...23:02
reportingsjrHinHin, Ok23:03
reportingsjrI'm trying to put a movie on my phone23:03
kostkonBodsda, :)23:03
hischildSuhail, i understand. Don't use guided, go for manual.23:03
reportingsjronly 1gb of space23:03
Suhailhischild: lol, oh man...23:03
reportingsjrzcat[1], thanks!23:03
Suhailhischild: You just almost effed me :P23:03
hischildhaha23:03
hischildSuhail, it will _always_ ask for confirmation. Report back when it does :p23:03
Suhailhischild: Problem with manual is, can you seperate space from space already used by vista? =\23:04
hischildSuhail, we're about to find out :-)23:04
Suhailhischild: Well it's free space23:04
zcat[1]reportingsjr, if you're converting for phone you'll probably want to convert the resolution and bitrate down, so it will end up heaps smaller23:04
pliumbumhi, can anybody tell me if it is possible to reach your ntfs data from ubuntu when you have two OS - windows and ubuntu?23:04
SuhailI don't know how to take off a chunk =(23:04
hischildSuhail, there's a difference between free space and free space23:04
Bodsdaatheodo, type lsusb, and pastebin the output23:04
Suhailhischild: That's really encouraging :P23:04
reportingsjrzcat[1], How much worse will it make it look?23:04
nickrudpliumbum: yes, you should end up with an icon of your windows drive on the desktop23:04
zcat[1]reportingsjr, If you do it right it will look as good as your phone screen can display.. iow crap :)23:05
Bodsdakostkon, ;-)23:05
reportingsjrhaha23:05
hischildyou know what, you got about 15 minutes? i'll get virtualbox up with a copy of desktop installer23:05
hischildSuhail, ^23:05
hischildSuhail, then we can go step by step :-)23:05
pliumbumnickrud, should it appear automatically after installing ubuntu? I have never before used two OS on the same comp. Though I am familiar with both windows and ubuntu23:06
SuhailOkay so does anyone here know how to seperate unused space by vista so you can repartion it? =(23:06
nickrudpliumbum: yes23:06
zcat[1]50 minutes left...23:06
Suhailhischild: maybe...I'll...just wait to buy a mac...23:06
zcat[1]the race is on.. which will end first? putting the ISO on my mp3 player or the laptop battery...23:06
Suhailhischild: lol23:07
ArthurArchnixSuhail: Yes. But I need to find the link, can yo hang on a sec?23:07
batma8anyone in here runing gutsy on macbook v2 a1181??23:07
pliumbumnickrud: I see.. and I will also be able to write into my windows disk? And what about vice versa - will windows read ext3?23:07
ArthurArchnixSuhail: Cuz the instructions are a bit longish....23:07
SuhailArthurArchnix: Sure23:07
hischildSuhail, you can do that. I'm just trying to make sure you don't screw up doing something that i could've prevented ;-)23:07
Odd-rationalepliumbum: Yes. but not vice versa23:07
tkoodaare there (ubntu-server-7.10-i386.iso) kernel boot args that will let me install via serial console?23:07
nickrudpliumbum: yes, you can write to ntfs. if you get the driver from fs-driver.org , you can use the ext3 partition in windows as well23:08
amx109zcat[1]: sods law battery will die as you unmounting the usb drive and waiting for the cache to be flushed..23:08
tim167i want to move all jpgs in a folder, but i get 'argument list too long' if i do mv *.jpg ... how can I move many files at once ? thanks23:08
IndyGunFreakpliumbum, i believe there's a program you can use on windows, to write to ext3..23:08
hspaansext2explorer23:08
zcat[1]amx109, yeah, fully expecting that23:08
nickrudexplore2fs you mean. Reads only23:08
zcat[1]woot.. apparently done!23:09
nickrudzcat[1]: stick your finger in the power supply socket, you might just give it enough milliamps ...23:09
zcat[1]looking around the office to see if anything else here has an 18v power supply I can borrow..23:09
pliumbumyou see, i have two hdds, 14 gb and 200 gb. So I guess the best for me should be to put windows into the big one and ubuntu into the small one, and in ubuntu I could use them both, while in windows the majority of the file space. agree? :)23:10
hischildSuhail, if you want you can go ahead. If someone else knows the menu as well, they can jump in here. Untill then i'll get it up and running in vmware which is about 10 minutes out :-)23:10
zcat[1]Oh well, in theory this should boot now23:10
tim167how do i move ±7000 jpgs to another folder ? mv *.jpg doesn't work , thanks23:10

pliumbumoh, she asked me to do this, after when her windows refused for about two hours23:12
ArthurArchnixSuhail: Windows doesn't like to be resized to less than 60% of it's partition size. So, if you've got a 100GB partition, it will never let you resize below 60GB. Vista is even worse... :(   Anyway, what you want to do23:12
ArthurArchnixSuhail: No... not that... not yet.23:13
pliumbumrefused to boot*23:13
JDStoneI'm running Ubuntu server edgy and was wondering how to make my external USB hard drive auto mount when I plug it in?23:13

tim167prince_jammys ok thanks, i will !23:13
SuhailArthurArchnix: Sounds like it's smart to think ahead of time and partition two spaces =\23:14
ArthurArchnixSuhail: I should probably ask more questions... I've done things before, but whether I can help you or not depends on what you're doing. Whats' your setup? HD size? partition for Vista? what do you want? Dual-boot? what's the primary OS? Anything else I should know?23:15

daedalus2_anax: default port for sftp = 2223:24
ArthurArchnixSuhail: Ok... well, here's what I'd do... IDEALLY... 1) backup my data. 2) reinstall vista. 3) update, install all programs, turn off system restore, delete update files (they're hidden). 4) reboot make sure everything works good. I've got no personal files on the system yet. (Let's say after reboot you find that Vista is using 12GB, I'll continue with that in mind). 5) Resize vista partition - how? {define desired size (say, 20GB, based on a 12GB in23:24
NB2000Default port is same as SSH port I believe.23:25
ArthurArchnix6) Now you've got your ideal 20GB vista install. Create a 10GB ubuntu install using gparted. Create 10GB ext3 space, then make the rest ntfs, all using gparted.23:25

ArthurArchnix8) Use PING (ping is not ghost -- google it) to create your very own bootable vista restore DVD. Very easy to do. This step is optional... but given how much goes wrong with windows, recommended.23:27

hspaansphilphoto: then check your logs in /var/log to see more details23:41
BodsdaEyemean, only if you either 1. get the cd and registration keys -- 2. keep the original instlation23:41
sudobashCT you still here?23:41
FlannelEyemean: dualboot and then put it back (you'll need to be able to fix the MBR)23:41
karl_yeah, need to install the keys too23:41
Eyemeani probably wouldnt be givine original cd, that what i would need to do flannel23:41
karl_i would just talk with your tech administrator and ask if it is okay23:41
karl_they might have some kind of policy against it23:41
philphotohspaans: in /var/log dir, what to look for?23:42
Eyemeanhow would i do that flannel?23:42
Flannel!dualboot | Eyemean23:42
ubotuEyemean: Dual boot instructions: x86/AMD64: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBootHowTo - MACs: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MacBookPro https://wiki.ubuntu.com/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot23:42
sudobashMBR can be fixed easily with Super Grub Disk SGD23:42
=== fubu16__________ is now known as fubu16
* Bodsda loves the way linux is used above to fix windows23:42
FlannelEyemean: you'll want to backup the MBR (with Smart Boot Manager, perhaps) if you don't have any other method of restoring it23:42
Eyemeani know how to dual boot flannel, just dont know about fixing the mbr so its the same as wen i got it23:42
karl_you just overwrite grub with the microsoft bootloader23:43
karl_in the mbr23:43
FlannelEyemean: Smart boot manager (when you boot it from a floppy/whatever) can make a backup of the MBR, and can restore said backup as well23:43
karl_and then adjust it to point to the original partition23:43
=== alan__ is now known as speeddemon8803
BodsdaEyemean, or, you could swap the hard drives, for one of yours, then put theirs back when returning it23:43
FlannelEyemean: or, if you have *any* windows disc, you can do it there as well (and there's probably other utilities that do the same)23:43
hspaansphilphoto: check the files in there and look for any error messages, syslog and messages may be a good start23:44
Eyemeancheers flannel, bodsda, is smart bootmanager free?23:44
FlannelEyemean: yep23:44
Eyemeancheers flannel, i'll probably do that then23:44
CorruptTerroristdoes all software on linux have to be free?23:44
Eyemeannice one23:44
FlannelEyemean: http://sourceforge.net/projects/btmgr/23:44
FlannelCorruptTerrorist: No23:44

jarrettgreen_I've got a IP/Domain/DNS question. I have a dapper box up and running. I use a hosting company, and have say example.com. I have made it so my static IP points to port 80 on my dapper box. Works great. But I'd like instead of typing in the IP, or forwarding dev.example.com to the IP, to actually have the domain registered on the box. Is it possible to do this? I have bind9 running, but don't really understand it.23:58
