DOOM_NXOdd-rationale, it says something about NTFS being used or so00:00
Odd-rationaleDOOM_NX: Have you tried to force mount?00:00
DOOM_NXi think it has been flagged as dirty00:00
danandsarthor - samba server uses ports 137-139 and 445. traffic on that port is bound to be high if you have a lot of clients connecting to you server00:00
DOOM_NXOdd-rationale, no, i didn't take the risk00:00
DOOM_NXshould i?00:00
Odd-rationaleDOOM_NX: As long as you don't blame me...00:01
DOOM_NXis there some other way to check the disks?00:01
DOOM_NXcause vista caused my external HDD to lose some data and not being able to mount in Ubuntu as well00:01
DOOM_NXbut then i used some check and fix command and it became mountable00:02
DOOM_NXbut it was trial and error... i don't remember what i have exactly done00:02
skullmonkey123when i try to boot up, it gets passed the loading splash screen and then goes to a terminal like command. any help?00:03
Odd-rationaleDOOM_NX: Can you boot windows into safe mode or command prompt and run a chdisk?00:03
DOOM_NXno i can't boot windows in any way00:03
DOOM_NXi get a reboot00:03
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.00:04
jmworxI just de-installed compiz and I'm now left with no window manager. Every time I log in, I have to start metacity by hand, which is quite annoying to say the least. Any idea how to fix that?00:04

SubOneI'm getting this error when trying to install Ubuntu 7.10: (initramfs) [  225.263034] ata2: SRST failed (errno=-16)00:06
DOOM_NXin fact i don't want vista to boot, i don't care about vista at all. i just want to mount the NTFS partitions to backup the data on them.00:06
sudobashhow much ram do you have subOne?00:06
SubOnesudobash: 64m00:06
storm-zenI didn't like the name of one of the partitions that were auto-mounted onto the desktop, so I unmounted it, used e2fslabel (I think was the name) to change the name, but now I can't figure out how to update that icon on my desktop (or worse, mount the partition again.)  What controls this behavior?00:06
sudobashthat might be your problem00:06
SubOnesudobash: so how do i initialize the installation process?00:07
Odd-rationaleDOOM_NX: Sorry about that. Got disconnected.00:07
sudobashDOOM_NX use NTFS-3g to mount NTFS in linux and copy data00:07
DOOM_NXOdd-rationale, it's ok00:07

DOOM_NXsudobash, i think u didn't see... i am gettin an error when trying to mount them00:07
Odd-rationaleskullmonkey123: Have you tried "startx"00:07
skullmonkey123just that?00:07
sudobashSubone you need at least 256 mb of ram to use live cd00:07

sudobashwith what and what error? are you using ntfs-3g Doom_NX?00:08
sudobashnot for a PC with 64 mb00:08
sudobashif you put over 256 then yes00:08
BibbieAnyone able to think of a reason ubuntu would not connect to a specific AP but be able to connect to all other AP's?    WEP encryption is on the AP currently00:08
DOOM_NXsudobash, those partitions would automatically mount when ubuntu started. now after a BSOD in vista i can't mount any of them.00:09
SubOnesudobash: is there anyway to doawnload part of the alt cd and make it with this one, because this is on dialup and i just got this cd00:09

sudobashand your using Ubuntu 7.10?00:10
cybergigCould use some help, I have Ubuntu and Windows installed on a 250gb hardrive, before Ubuntu detected the windows partition and displayed a folder and Icon in which I can copy over files to linux or write to windows. However now, the contents of the folder and the icon disappeared but both operating systems are there, could I get some help on this?00:10
sudobashDOOM00:10
FlannelSubOne: Ubuntu won't really run too well on 64M, Xubuntu might.00:10
tolecnalI was in here the other day, talking about a problem I had with my newly installed ubuntu installation freezing on boot. I found out what was wrong, it was the wireless NIC that halts the machine at boot (using ndiswrapper). It's a Marvell based chip, and the problem is known. Just wanted you to know too, always good to spread such information. Just FYI.00:10
DOOM_NXyes i'm using 7.1000:10
storm-zenooh.. I want that wall clock too, hehe.00:10
DOOM_NXdual boot with vista.00:10
sudobashyes xubuntu is what he needs00:10
SubOneFlannel: i'll keep that in mind but its what ive got atm00:10
cybergigVista sucks, XP is better00:10
sudobashand whats the error you get when mounting?00:11
SubOneso then i have no choice but order another cd?00:11
Flannelstroogle: Change it in the virtual host config.  /etc/apache2/sites-available/default00:11
sudobashXP is much better than Vista in my opinion00:11
DOOM_NXsomething like NTFS partition is already in use00:11
metxasstorm-zen, i search and search but can't find it00:11
sudobashSubOne how fast is CPU?00:11
DOOM_NXdo u want me to reproduce the error?00:11
SubOne400mhz00:11
FlannelSubOne: I'm not even sure Xubuntu's liveCD would work.  You'd need to install with an alternate CD at any rate.00:12
FlannelSubOne: you may look into linuxes designed specifically for older/lighter machines00:12
Odd-rationaleDOOM_NX: The reason that usually happens is when Windows is not shutdown properly. NTFS cannot handle that very well.00:12
bobesponjahi00:12
FlannelSubOne: you could use the minimal CD, which is a 8mb download, but then it downloads all its packages from the web during install.  You will, however, be up to date.00:13
DOOM_NXhttp://pastebin.com/m470e9cd900:13
DOOM_NXsee the error00:13
bobesponjaafter using airsnort, my wifi card stopped working, it is not detected anymore :/ any idea how to fix this?00:13
sudobashSubOne no you have to use Alternate install and install Xubuntu when you get that done... or just get the Xubuntu alternate install00:13
FlannelSubOne: You might try contact your LoCo team, see if they can provide you with a CD00:13
SubOneok so then i just have to order another disc?00:13
hischildDOOM_NX, you can force mount your drive if you want :-)00:13
sudobashFlannel that is good idea00:13
cybergigCould use some help, I have Ubuntu and Windows installed on a 250gb hardrive, before Ubuntu detected the windows partition and displayed a folder and Icon in which I can copy over files to linux or write to windows.

edgeWhen i ssh to my box as an unprivillaged user, the machine disconnects and closes. what could be causing this?00:14
danandSubOne - try damn small linux (thats based on debian too i think) or feather linux perhaps. My fav is dsl :)00:14
DOOM_NXOdd-rationale, no, sorry00:14
SubOnek thanks00:14
sudobashyes DSL is good00:14
hischildDOOM_NX, yes there is. Mount this drive on a windows machine and then unmount it again. Or you can just force mount it, which under normal circumstances won't corrupt data00:15
iceswordhello00:15
sudobashyeah just force mount the drive00:15
hischildDOOM_NX, this is because it wasn't unmounted properly under windows when disconnecting the drive.00:15
Odd-rationaleDOOM_NX: Any windows friends? You can try to attach your HDD to their machine and then simply safely remove it.00:15

DjerodekHello, I'm looking for some boot assistance for a livecd00:50
PeloDjerodek, what is the problem ?00:50
ArthurArchnixDjerodek: Go on00:50
DjerodekI'm running an HP dv6308ca and I get a microcode error during boot - it continues on to a blank screen and hangs00:51
andtgtygygtygy00:51
andhello00:51
DjerodekThe CD stops spinning and it sits on a blank screen without any change00:51
PeloDjerodek, I recommend you try the alternate instal cd00:51
DjerodekAlternate install cd?00:51
iceswordnickrud, finally ,i finished netinstall,but not ubuntu,it is debian,i use that 180m cd of debian00:51
donkey_well i know that there are going to be some more visual efects like when you resize the window you can bend it and stuf00:51
PeloDjerodek, text based installer, no live cd desktop to try one ,   you can get it from the ubuntu webise00:52
Pelowebsite00:52
nickrudicesword: good on you, you now know much more about how your ubuntu is put together :)00:52
DjerodekAlright, now assuming I do this, and I want to install the OS to my 4GB USB key, how would I do that?00:52
Robert125Is ubuntu updateable by CD?00:52
FlannelRobert125: yes, the Alternate CD00:53
Pelo!install > Djerodek check for a private message windows with instructions from ubotu00:53
nickrudRobert125: you can use the alternate, but you'll still need the web to upgrade stuff that you've downloaded00:53
iamchrisHi guys. I have a usb hard drive, and now for some reason it wont let me access and modify the files on the drive. It says I dont have permission. I tried to change the permission, but it says I need to be root.00:53
DjerodekThanks, Pelo00:53
nickrudRobert125: in other words, without the net you'll have a broken upgrade00:53
Robert125>Flannel: Thanks00:53
donkey_well i know that there are going to be some more visual efects like when you resize the window you can bend it and stuf\00:53
PeloDjerodek, basicaly you install to it like to anyother hdd ,  just make sure you set it to boot in the bios, so the grub boot menu  gets intalled to taht and not to your regular hdd00:53

kostkonreportingsjr, it looks like you did not compile ffmpeg to support some restrcited formats01:41
danbhfivefishie: I'm not sure, but if something goes wrong, you could loose everything on that partition01:41
ryanakcafishie: You running a live CD? if not, check the logs ... /var/log/syslog probably.01:41
fishieryanacka: im using GParted Live CD01:42
fishiedanbhfive: it was an empty partition01:42
Ed--I can't see the webcams on http://surfcity-hb.org/visitors/beach_info/LiveBeachCondition.cfm01:42
reportingsjrkostkon, it took like 15 minutes to compile too xD01:42
Ed--any ideas?01:42
danbhfivefishie: empty?!  are you sure?01:42
kostkonreportingsjr, try the ffmpeg from medibuntu. it will do just fine01:42
ryanakcafishie: this might be excessive... but have you tried using fdisk?01:42
danbhfivefishie: it should not take 3 hours to resize a partition01:42
fabio2ffmpeg -formats01:42
fishiedanbhfive: it was an ext3 partition that I just made from an unformatted partition. i was in the process of shrinking it01:43
reportingsjrkostkon, in a bit :)01:43
ryanakcafishie: ah, just a sec...01:43
kostkonreportingsjr, yeah do what fabio2 says, good idea01:43
fishiek01:43
fishieryanakca: what's fdisk?01:43
reportingsjrkostkon, fine! medibuntu.com?01:43
ryanakcafishie: its a command line partition resizer. http://www.howtoforge.com/linux_resizing_ext3_partitions01:44
kostkonreportingsjr, w8! did you do the "ffmpeg -formats"?01:44
ryanakcafishie:        fdisk - Partition table manipulator for Linux01:44
reportingsjryes01:44
danbhfivefishie: if its empty, it should resize very quickly i think.  I think thats strange that it took SO long to perform that.  What you can do, is just delete the partition, and recreate it to the size you want01:44
fishieryanacka: ok thanks; is this recommended over gparted?01:44
ryanakcafishie: if its empty, can you delete the partition and recreate it?01:44
ryanakcafishie: no01:44
kostkonreportingsjr, and?01:44
kostkon!medibuntu | reportingsjr01:44
fishieryanakca: i believe i can delete it and recreate it, yes01:44
ubotureportingsjr: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org01:44
ryanakcafishie: fdisk is /really/ old school01:45
danbhfivefishie: going back to the very long time, that may indicate a harddrive problem01:45
fishiedanbhfive: is it quick to delete and recreate it? it took a long time to create the ext3 partition..over 2 hrs01:45
reportingsjrkostkon, lots of formats :)01:45
fabio2the reason we have ogg instead of mp3 i suppose01:45
fishieryanakca: thot so01:45
ryanakcafishie: if you want to see what its like, open up a terminal and run 'fdisk' ... :)01:45
kostkonreportingsjr, do you see mp3 in the list, for example?01:45
reportingsjryes01:45
fishiedanbhfive: i asked on forums if 2+ hrs was normal for resizing and they said yeah01:45
fishieryankca: ok ill check it out01:46
ryanakcafishie: 'sudo fdisk /dev/hdwhatever' would be an example, for more help, 'man fdisk'01:46
danbhfivefishie: oh, ok, didnt know that.  I thought it was pretty quick01:46
reportingsjrkostkon, yes, I did01:46

tgm4883_laptophow would I convert a standard ubuntu install into just a command line system?  All I really want it to do it to boot into the command line every time (like server edition), but the only reference i found on the web pertaining to this says to edit /etc/inittab which doesn't exist06:10
msntgm4883_laptop: you want to boot your ubuntu into command line or remove all gui06:11
prince_jammystgm4883_laptop: you would remove X and the desktop06:11
soldatstgm4883_laptop: theres a run level you need to change to boot cli and do startx to boot gui.06:11

msnhow do i get ubuntu to install from the network. I have a mirror already setup but when i try to use it it just goes to d-i not gound06:12

TrustNoOnetonyyarusso, i dont have SSH installed, should that matter?06:15

Nubbien0rman: thanks, i know... i added a windows section in grub using (hd0,6) is that not correct?06:17
tonyyarussoTrustNoOne: not sure.  I think normally that would be done in your ssh server config, but if you aren't even running one, it's hard to configure it.  :P06:17
msnn0rman: any idea if deb-mirror works on rhel-306:17
tonyyarussoTrustNoOne: As long as you don't have an ssh server going, there's nothing to break into, so just let iptables do it for you.06:18

TrustNoOnebilly_, i would have no idea how to do that without destroy data, you normally cant unless your just "expanding" the drive06:31
billy_?06:31
n0rman:P06:31
TrustNoOnebilly_, if you want to format to another file system you should migrate your data and save it before doing so, to avoid destroying it06:31
billy_is it possibly to partition a 1 gb sandisk?06:31
brazilian812amenado: one ends in a dot, the 2nd in 2 dots, then one in lid, then power, then sleep06:31
billy_and use that as ubuntu's hard drive?06:32
amenadobrazilian812-> can you look over this http://www.columbia.edu/~ariel/acpi/acpi_howto.txt  i think your answer may be in there..i have no laptop to test it06:32
TrustNoOnebilly_, no you cant it has no partition table06:32
bullgard4brazilian812: Please read /usr/share/doc/linux-doc-2.6.22/Documentation/power/drivers-testing.txt. Do what is recommended there. Then put more precise questions including your findings from those tests.06:32
billy_i want to have winxp and ubuntu on this computer.06:32
TrustNoOnebilly_, also 1gb is not nearly enough space to run it, you need at least 256mb just for swap file, OS needs 10gb or more... you cant partition a flash drive, it has no partition table06:32
billy_i don't have anything to back up my files to06:32
amenadobrazilian812-> yah that lid has a script attached to it in events maybe something like /etc/acpi/events06:32

n0rmanNubbie: ok :)06:33
billy_how can i run 7.10 from live cd?06:33
TrustNoOnebilly_, to get xp and ubuntu, install XP, then download a partitioning program like partition magic, then resize your XP partition to whatever size you want, then with the free space create a 256mb swap file for linux (the file system is swap) and then create ext3 partition for linux to reside on, boot to LIVE CD and then install ubuntu on that newly created partition06:33
TrustNoOnebilly_, another option is to just resize your windows XP with partition magic, leave the rest "unpartitioned" and partition it while installing ubuntu from the live CD06:33
billy_what are the chances of destroyin my files that way?06:34
bullgard4"$ dmesg|tail -24; ... ; [323926.580000] pnp: Failed to activate device 00:06." What device is '00:06'?06:34
billy_and whats the minimum space i need?06:34
TrustNoOnebilly_, you to run the live CD you need to go to ubuntu site, download the .iso image file (in either torrent, or directly from http server) and then burn the image onto a CD or DVD depending which image you get06:34
billy_thats what i did06:34
billy_so far06:34
David_Can 7.10 run on good on my dinosaur of a computer? 500 mhz with 192 mbs of ram?06:34
Zigtownamenado I dont "have any wireless extensions"06:34

Gringexicanthink i'm gonna hit the sack now and t-fer everything to the new drive in the morning.  thanks for letting me know I don't have to worry about rebuilding grub or relabeling the drives to get it to run06:34
TrustNoOnebilly_, if you partition your drive that way you need to backup your data as it will be lost... you need 256 or more for swap file and 10gb for OS install06:34
TrustNoOnebilly_, you can run right off the livecd without using your hard drive at all, and your data will be safe06:35
billy_how do i do that? and will i have networking?06:35
David_Can 7.10 run on good on my dinosaur of a computer? 500 mhz with 192 mbs of ram?06:35
Gringexicandavid, Gutsy (7.10) requires 256 mb ram minimum06:35
David_How about 6.06?06:35
bazhangbilly_: the installer will allow you to resize the drive partitions06:35
n0rmanDavid_:  did u try with the alternative cd?06:35
brazilian812bullgard4: somehow my comp says no such file exists...06:36
billy_will it mess up my files? lol i can't stress enough how bad i need everything i've got06:36
David_its installing now, 7.10 on the alternativ06:36
amenadoZigtown-> huh?06:36
billy_and i have no way to back it all up06:36
TrustNoOnebilly_, you should have networking capabilities with the default drivers, to do that just boot to CD by changing your BIOS to boot to CD first (instead of hard drive) or when you first start up and see the splash screen for your motherboard or chipset or whatever, just hit either F10 or F8 usually and it gives you boot options, then choose your DVD/CD drive06:36
Nubbien0rman: it wouldn't boot. "error 12: invalid device requested"06:36
billy_i got that far06:36
PriitM_Sometimes my WiFi connection goes idle according to network monitor. /etc/init.d/networking restart, ifconfig ra1 down and up, restarting x won't help. Iwconfig and kern.log copy: http://www.pastebin.ca/91724906:36
bullgard4brazilian812: Then please start finding that file in your kernel documentation.06:36
billy_what option do i select to run from the disk?06:36
TrustNoOnebilly_, running to livecd will not change files on your hard drive, but you cant really save files off the live CD as it has nowhere to write06:36
billy_im not entirely worried about saving files06:37
Gringexicannight all06:37
billy_i just wanna try it out06:37
TrustNoOnebilly_, when you get to the boot screen select whatever your media drive is, it would usually have the word DVD or CD in it06:37

Tim-HI'm having quite a bit of trouble getting windows to see my samba shares on gutsy.  I've made browseable = yes, added usernames that equal those of the windows users (and ubuntu users), put samba on the same workgroup, added shares (which are in the smb.conf), but I can't seem to browse from windows -- it rejects authentication perhaps?  Any advice?06:47
macogwwhose idea was it to put a password on sudo on the live cd?06:48
iterbullgard4: type 'sudo lspci | grep 00:06' in a terminal06:48
TrustNoOnebilly_, the download should say something like ubuntu-7.10-desktop-amd64.iso06:48

TrustNoOnebilly_, torrents are usually fast, they connect to many peers to download from at once, instead of 1 http server06:49

KnarffHi. I have this issue. Some months ago I had a working installation of Windows XP installed in a partition and other NTFS partition for my files (as you need to reinstall Windows constantly). I wanted to have a dual boot system with Ubuntu, so I installed Ubuntu and said yes when it told me to write the GRUB to disk as it had detected Microsoft Windows.07:01
bazhangDavid_: for how long07:02
n0rmanNubbie: is the one wiht the problem in the grub :P07:02
|etdavid how long have you waited it out07:02
David_umm 15 mins or so07:02
regeyacripes, 1am here, and my 2yrold will be getting up probably in 5.5hr07:02
KnarffUbuntu worked well, but when I tried to boot into Windows, it gave me a BSOD (Blue Screen of Death). Somehow, Windows didn't like GRUB. Ever since I've been stuck with Ubuntu (that's a good thing because I love it), but I still want to have a dual boot system. Now, I have tried reinstalling windows, but the Windows Installer does not detect any partitions and if I proceed it would delete all my partitions.07:02
KnarffNote: I can see both my two Windows partitions from Ubuntu. It's only the Windows installer that does not detect the partition. What can I do to achieve a dual boot system? How can I make the Windows installer see my partitions?07:02
Nubbien0rman: what's that?07:02

bullgard4iter: So it was probably a good idea of yours to ask me to try lspnp.07:08
amazen720David_: did you erase the previous partition in the beginning of this installation, or your keeping Windows also?07:08

amazen720David_: what type of PC is it07:11
macogwsupershort: thats because the power went out and your hard drive was busy, and the fact that it turned off in the middle of doing something means the hard drive is in a bad state07:11
bazhangKnarff: if you want to reinstall windows that may overwrite your ubuntu--better would be to repair grub /msg ubotu grub and then boot into the windows and fix whatever problems you have there07:11

David_to amazen, any suggestions for distros? i was thinking about trying 6.06 Dapper Drake07:13
bazhangdavid you might try fluxbuntu for an older computer07:13
Nubbiesupershort: linux forces checks on your disk to prevent data corruption. windows was dumb in giving you the option to skip it.07:13
macogwsupershort: thats a bad idea.  the check can fix things that are broken if they're not *too* broken.  if your disk was idle, thats fine and nothing will be broken. if your disk was busy, its possible that whatever was happening got corrupted because the disk was doing things. thats a simple hardware error, but if your system files are corrupted the system could become unbootable. if some of your files corrupted, theyre trash.  you can boot from a live c07:13

David_to amazen, that stinks, actually it was running windows XP fine but, it was slow07:14
amazen720tylerd: sounds like fun, whats your prob?07:14
supershortit says error reading block .... (attempt to read block from filesystem resulted in short read) while getting next inode from scan) ignore error(y)?07:14
KnarffBefore installing Ubuntu, this Blue Screen of Death didn't appear07:15
tylerdi was wondering if power management works. im running it now but im not sure about power management07:15
macogwsupershort: try booting from your ubuntu live cd07:15
bazhangKnarff: ah well then that is a difficult situation; you may need to back up your ubuntu data and do a fresh install of windows then ubuntu-I'm not real good with windows issues though they do have a channel ##windows07:15
macogwsupershort: and then running fsck on the drive from there...it might give you options to tryr to fix some of the inodes07:15
PriitM_Sometimes my WiFi connection goes idle according to network monitor. /etc/init.d/networking restart, ifconfig ra1 down and up, restarting x won't help. Iwconfig and kern.log copy: http://www.pastebin.ca/91724907:15
NubbieKnarff: then windows doesn't play well with linux. complain in #windows07:15
bullgard4iter: What information or use can I draw from your statement: "nothing unusual there..."?07:15
xTheGoat121xI've googled repeatedly, and found no answer.  I want my theme for sudo-ed apps to be different than my personal theme, but also different than the generic theme included with Ubuntu07:15
supershortnubbie is that all u do? tell people to go to ubuntu07:15
supershorti mean windows07:15
amazen720David_: put some more RAM in it, at lease 25607:16
macogwsupershort: right now its basically just saying things got broken from the shutdown. it might be able to undo whatever was going on and get back to a consistent state if you use the live cd07:16
supershortill try07:16
Knarffwhat if I use the FIXMBR to get Windows to recognize all my partitions?07:16
KnarffWill that work?07:16
NubbiexTheGoat121x: then set up your themes in /root/.themes differently.07:16
David_i will try, lol the computer was made before 199807:16
bazhangKnarff: that may well be worth a shot07:16
xTheGoat121xNubbie, it doesn't seem to persist.07:16
iterbullgard4: hehe none, sorry... I was just looking for something out of the ordinary that would cause that error...07:16
NubbieKnarff: windows refuses to recognize ext partitions.07:16
amazen720David_: or download the ISO for Xubuntu, it's a lighter OS07:16
macogwsupershort: this is why they tell you to shut down properly instead of unplugging it...too many people dont listen to that...ditto on ejecting (or in windows speak "safely removing") external drives07:17
iterbullgard4: it's probably a legit bug, though not a critical one, consider filing a bug report07:17
Knarffbut at least Windows normally says Unknown allocated space or something07:17
rockwellgumpanyone know how to run the math program freefem3d?07:17
NubbiexTheGoat121x: log in as root (i know it's bad, but it will accomplish what you want), then set up your themes, log out, and never log in as root again!07:17
Knarffthis time Windows does not see ANY07:17
|etso any ideas on this error using vlc on ubuntu 7.10 with dvd.07:17
|etcdda access error: could not read block 0 from disc07:17
macogwKnarff: that sounds like your NTFS partition got corrupted or something...or the partition table got corrupted perhaps...07:17
xTheGoat121xNubbie, again, I did that and it STILL doesn't persist.  That's what's bothering me.07:17
NubbieKnarff: you're asking for windows help in a linux help channel. don't you understand you're never going to get the answer to your problem? you're looking in the wrong place.07:17
Knarffhow come I can access my NTFS partitions from Ubuntu?07:18
KnarffWIndows sucks07:18
bazhangjet that is odd as you do you have the ubuntu-restricted-extras and the libdvdcss207:18
billy__lol07:18
shaft0rso no one has any video issues w/ linux in general?07:18
NubbiexTheGoat121x: i'm just content soft linking my ~/.themes to /root/.themes. why isn't that good enough?07:18
billy__what is the availability of programs for ubuntu?07:18
macogwKnarff: oh the partition is fine from ubuntu? ok then yeah that sounds like windows being idiot07:18
macogwidiotic07:18
KnarffYes07:18
billy__can i get MSN messenger?07:18
bazhangamsn billy__07:18
macogwbilly__: you can get aMSN07:18
KnarffI see all my NTFS partitions here in ubuntu07:18
rockwellgumppidgin07:18
Knarffand they're fine07:18
|etbazhang i do have extras i dont think i have the libdvdcss2 only libdvdcss07:18

patogenemesene is good aswell.07:18
ere4sifdisk -l /dev/sdb says I have 20.4G - but only have 6.2G used and 8.5G free - where's the other 5.7G?07:19
KnarffI can even listen to my MP3 there07:19
billy__can aMSN use webcam?07:19
shanihello07:19
macogwbilly__: i think so07:19
NubbieKnarff: because linux developers are smart and wrote NTFS drivers for linux. windows refuses to write ext drivers for windows. MOVE ON.07:19
macogwbilly__: if it cant, kopete can07:19
bazhangwww.medibuntu.org for that jet07:19

macogwbilly__: WengoPhone also does MSN networks and video i think07:19
xTheGoat121xNubbie, I like the visual reminder that I'm running a program with admin privileges.  It'd just be nice to have something other than that gray.07:19
KnarffNubbie, I will MOVE ON, once I can get a dual boot07:19
rockwellgumpcan any one help me on running the Freefem3d program?07:19
macogwbilly__: pidgin's the only one that doesnt do video, i think...07:19
macogwKnarff: i think you need to reinstall windows...07:19
Pieti got a problem with mod-jk connector; in the log i see cant resolve tomcat address localhost07:20
billy__i gotta gf that lives far away.. cant do without webcam lol07:20
macogwNubbie: there are windows drivers...at least xp ones...for ext2/307:20
NubbieKnarff: you have ubuntu and grub functioning correctly. your problem is that windows is messed up. get out of this channel unless you have a problem with linux.07:20
macogwNubbie: be nice07:20
bazhangKnarff: if you are able to fixmbr from windows cd, then you can install drivers for windows that allow you to see ext2/3 fs07:20

macogwdmakalsky: iptables is built into the kernel07:21
tylerdamazen720 pretty good ive got pretty much everything except isight and power management working07:21
KnarffOk, if i do FIXMBR... my GRUB will get wiped out. Can I restore it later?07:21
xTheGoat121xNubbie, meh, I know it's overkill but it'd be nice.07:21
macogwdmakalsky: you can configure it using the iptables command or a gui like firestarter.07:21
iterKnarff: yes no prob07:21
macogwKnarff: yes07:21
Knarffgreat07:21
bazhangKnarff: yes07:21
NubbieKnarff: please understand, if grub will get you into windows (even if it's a BSOD), that means it's functioning correctly. if you have BSOD problems, ask for help in #windows.07:21
dmakalskymacogw: thanks07:21
macogwdmakalsky: by default nothing listens on any ports07:21
NubbieKnarff: sorry if i was short with you.07:22
bullgard4iter: (My native language is not English.) "$ dict legit; No definitions found for "legit", perhaps you mean: gcide:  Legist  Elegit" I will not consider it a bug, rather a reminder that I have not put in my mouse into my laptop computer.07:22
KnarffIt's ok07:22
macogwdmakalsky: so getting it would require access to some sort of exploit...which isnt something firewalls block anyway07:22
tylerdamazen720 ive got compiz fusion running on it and its really cool...07:22
amazen720tylerd; did you try Synaptic for power management?07:22
complabhow can i connect my wireless laptop? pls help me.. i'm using gusty on Acer Aspire..07:22
NubbieKnarff: but the solution to your problem is not in this channel.07:22
tylerdamazen720 no what package ?07:22
macogwdmakalsky: if you add a service on a port, like SSH on port 22, just that port will be listened on07:22
bazhangcomplab what card07:22
KnarffIs there a hacked version of the Windows Installer?07:22
KnarffOne that recognized GRUB?07:22
iterbullgard4: sorry, I should have guessed from the .de pastebin, your english is very good. legit is short for legitimate07:22
macogwdmakalsky: itd be the only one that's effectively open.  the rest are theoretically open but unaccessible...basically07:22
NubbieKnarff: that would be illegal most likely.07:22
amazen720tylerd: do a search for power management in synaptic07:23
KnarffIllegal where?07:23
bazhangKnarff: when MS goes open source07:23
NubbieKnarff: everywhere.07:23
complabbazhang: i really dont know.. but according to restricted drivers.. its atheros07:23
macogwNubbie: except umm...china?07:23
iterbullgard4: if the message goes away when you put in your mouse I would say that is definitely the cause07:23
tylerdamazen720 before i do that what do i need enabled in the kernel07:23
supershortwhen ms goes open source is when windows vista brings no profits07:23
dmakalskymacogw: what rule do I use to open torrent port?07:23
Nubbiemacogw: it would be violating MS's end user agreement, regardless of any laws.07:23
bazhangsupershort: so soon ;]07:23
macogwdmakalsky: outbound is all open07:23
dmakalskyso it should be easy?07:24
macogwdmakalsky: if you are having blocked port issues it could be your ISP blocking torrent traffic or your router07:24
supershortbut who would want ms's source07:24
complabbazhang: i really dont know.. but according to restricted drivers.. its atheros... can u help me07:24
macogwdmakalsky: routers are firewalls usually07:24
amazen720tylerd: i dont understand?07:24
macogwNubbie: license agreements are not laws07:24
Knarfflots of people would want MS Windows open source07:24
Nubbiemacogw: no, but if you don't agree to the terms of the license, you can't use the software.07:24
tylerdamazen720 what do i need enabled in the kernel for power management07:24

Anybody have any idea how I can fix this?07:25

Franciscono, install doesn't see them07:40
Francisconot even the NTFS ones07:40
Franciscowhy? because GRUB wiped MBR ... i guess07:41
jorje-villafanmacogw: is there a log I can check to see what happened?07:41
macogwjorje-villafan: dmesg shows the kernel log07:42
macogwjorje-villafan: sstem -> admin -> logs has all the other logs07:42
macogwjorje-villafan: idk whatd go with that though07:42
avisi am trying to apt-get install pan and i seem to get a whole bunch of different Depends:  libxi6 (etc) but is not going to be installed.  not sure why it isn't installing those things07:42
macogwFrancisco: the mbr and partition table are on two different parts of the disk though, i think07:43
macogwFrancisco: did you try just reinstalling the windows mbr using fixmbr from teh cd?07:43
Franciscoso this tool won't help me?07:43
macogwFrancisco: i dont know if it will or not07:43
macogwFrancisco: but if it *is* the mbr thats the problem, windows's fixmbr is guaranteed to fix that07:43
FranciscoI thought windows (and its monopolistic behaviour) wrote the the partition table on the master boot record07:44
macogwFrancisco: thatd be fairly non-standard i think...i dont think thats how hard drives work..but then its microsoft so who knows07:44
macogwFrancisco: you could ask #windows where ms puts the partition table...07:45
bazhangor the chairs ;]07:45
Franciscowell..I think this tool http://www.arsgeek.com/?p=3340 is great because it restores the MBR according to the partitions that Ubuntu sees with sudo fdisk -l07:45

NineTeen67CometHi all .. I'm a Ubuntu user since roun' 5.10/6.04'ish .. but have never asked .. How come on some of my machines everything mounted inside /media shows on my Desktop .. but like now, my server (mounted via nfs) is not showing on my Desktop? .. can I manually tell it to show? mount -a doesn't help although the shared are available/mounted.07:49
macogwbillyb_: i keep having to start over typing your name!07:49
billyb_lmao im sorry07:49
billyb_its bein retarded07:49
billyb_but anyways07:50
xTheGoat121xaha, never mind.  Just found it.07:50
macogwbillyb_: dell wireless doesnt mean anything.  what actual card is it?  lspci should tell you.  im kinda guessing itll be a broadcom07:50
billyb_dell wireless 1390 WLAN mini-card07:50
billyb_my ethernet adapter is broadcom07:50
billyb_but not my wireless card07:51
FranciscoWell.. this time I'm off. I have school tomorrow and I'll try the ms-sys tool tomorrow. Bye07:51
macogwNineTeen67Comet: only stuff in /media shows because thats what HAL tells Nautilus to do...something like that07:51

billyb_as it says in the device manager07:51
johndbrittoni just moved a bunch of html files from a windows server to an ubuntu apache server... alot of the files have random '??????' in them, any ideas... i've tried FTP in binary and ASCII modes07:51

billyb_my ethernet is broadcom so i guess so07:52
billyb_dell is RETARDED07:52
Tidusbillyb_, yes they are.07:52

billyb_lol07:52
billyb_how do i connect from livecd?07:52
billyb_i couldn't figure it out lol07:52
towlieanyone07:52
Tidusi'm not sure if the livecd has ndiswrapper on it or not07:52
macogwbillyb_: you can try using the bcm43xx driver and that requires adding the firmware.  you have a wired connection from that box?07:52
billyb_yes07:53
billyb_but i don't want to go out in the livingroom lol07:53
macogwbillyb_: wget http://macoafi.googlepages.com/firmware.tar.gz07:53

jamesrdornSo this is kind of a wierd question. Does anyone know of a application that would generate a very low noise to keep the audio channel alive @ all times? my spdif setup with logitech z5500 goes to "sleep" when there is no activity, so it kinda cuts off 900ms of a sound before it activates the speakers.08:12
jamesrdornThere is a fix for this in windows, but the application requires .net framework, witch will not install under wine08:13
macogwjamesrdorn: uh i guess you could make a little script to send sound at the card every second or so...08:13
ph0rensic_james, is there not a way to program a noise in such away? Perhaps fine a low frequency mp3 and continuosly play it?08:14
ropieehello08:14
ropieehow to update database driver printer?08:14
jamesrdornmacogw: it would have to be faster than once a second, the z5500 goes to sleep almost as fast as the sound stops08:14
ropieeor download driver printer epson LQ-300+08:14
macogwjamesrdorn: your sound card was made by chimps, wasnt it?08:15
ph0rensic_does anyone else do the wave with their avant window icons.. or is it just me?08:15
jamesrdornmacogw: Yes, realtek... but it happends to all sound cards w/ spdif and this speaker system08:15
macogwph0rensic_: yes, until the 5 minutes of "ooo pretty" wore off and i went back to hating docks08:16
jamesrdornthe issue is the logitech control is flawed to put the audio interface to sleep while no sound exist08:16
ph0rensic_macogw, haha08:16
Tidusjamesrdorn, isn't there some setting in the menu system on those speakers to disable the auto-sleep?08:16

ropiee<macogw> ropiee: database driver printer?<--yeah08:18
macogwropiee: ive never heard of that but um... postscript printers have .ppd files that tell the computer the postcript definitions for that printer.  the printing utility should let you pick the right ppd that goes with it, if its postscript based08:19
jamesrdornSo as you can understand most alert sounds dont even make it to the speakers08:19
jamesrdornproblem happends in windows also.08:19
jamesrdornStrangely enough, realtek sound drivers do not support anything over 2channel using spdiff, but the open & free drivers in linux work just fine08:19

macogwjamesrdorn: on my friend's laptop, his video card goes to sleep like that...or rather, cuts some of its own power.  compiz isnt enough of a gpu hog to keep it from happening, but once it cuts its power in half, compiz sucks. so he has a script to poll the card for stats every 5 seconds so it stays awake.  he turns off the script to do *real* gpu intensive things like play games otherwise the script is too much and they get slow.  yay nvidia.08:23

macogwdemonspork: move them, i think?08:27

macogwup_the_irons: if you never want NM to change it, you can chattr it immutable08:31
macogwup_the_irons: itd be unchangeable until you make it mutable again08:31
magnetronup_the_irons: stop network manager from starting. system > preferences > sessions08:31
macogwmagnetron: wouldnt the daemon run anyway thogh?08:31
up_the_ironsmacogw: magnetron : well, I don't mind it running, it does help manage the network, but I'd like to tell it about extra "search" domains08:32
up_the_ironsthat it should include for all locations08:32
macogwup_the_irons: not sue, but that might be able to be put in /etc/hosts08:32
up_the_ironsmacogw: true, but kinda a pain to list each domain.  I have 2 company domains that should always be added to hostnames of less than 1 period.08:33
up_the_ironsmacogw: so i can do "ssh mail" instead of "ssh mail.arpnetworks.com"08:33

up_the_ironsmacogw: yeah, but then i have to enumerate all of  my domains08:34
macogwPiet: dont think so08:35
Kasperlemagnetron: and when i switch, it always switches from 1 to 3. even if i was on 2 or 4 before. really strange08:35
up_the_ironsmacogw: the whole point of the "search" line in /etc/resolv.conf is so the resolver does that for you :)08:35

Bodsdahey guys, after ive been logged in for about an hour, x crashes and takes me out to the login screen, any thoughts?08:35

jamesrdornFlannel: nah /dev/zero & /dev/random did not help08:35
up_the_ironsmacogw: been away in OS X land for 4 years08:35
macogwup_the_irons: system -> admin -> networking has a place you can list nameservers and stuff like that....maybe NM wouldnt overwrite that ?08:35

jamesrdornWGGMk: does usplash even work w/ your system?08:36
BodsdaWGGMk, id be careful, installing splashy on my machine caused it to corrupt grub unrepairably, i had to do a fresh install08:37

macogwup_the_irons: huh??08:37
Flanneljamesrdorn: random should be obnoxious and everything08:37
up_the_ironsmacogw: i'm not running gnome08:37
jamesrdornFlannel: actually running cat /dev/random locked up the CLI, couldnt even break out of it08:37
macogwup_the_irons: NM has a daemon an a little icon in the panel to pic what wireless network you want08:37
WGGMkBodsda: I would think grub and the bootsplash are separate aren't they?08:37
macogwup_the_irons: oh what are you running?08:37
macogwor is that what you meant by wmii?08:37
Kasperlemagnetron: that's what i thought to. suspected compiz at first, but when i remove the binds from gnome, they're gone from compiz as well08:38
WGGMkjamersdorn: I wouldn't see why not if I was able to install and configure it.. but I can't tell right now08:38
Flanneljamesrdorn: Er, thats unusual too.  For what it's worth.08:38
macogwwhy do i type better without looking than when looking?08:38
up_the_ironsmacogw: right right, i could switch back to gnome to do this, but it's kinda a pain.  and  yes, the window manager i'm running is "wmii"08:38
jamesrdornWGGMk: what I am asking is, usplash does not work on my system08:38
BodsdaWGGMk, no, splashy is a program that can let you customize the boot loading process (afaik) so it has control of grub settings aswell08:38
macogwup_the_irons: do you ever use gnome?08:38
WGGMkjamersdorn: oh you said usplash.. yes usplash works.. it was installed by default.. but I want to use splashy08:38

Anyway, I don't really know. It says am having a "HDA Intel (Alsa Mixer)" and a "Realtek ACL268 (OSS Mixer)". Can I optimize my sound someway?08:39
WGGMkBodsda: I believe your thinking of startup-manager08:39
jamesrdornWGGMk: I even changed the resolution seval times, and it does not work ata ll08:39
BodsdaWGGMk, no im not08:39
WGGMkBodsda: splashy should have nothing to do with GRUB08:39
BodsdaWGGMk, it was just a warning anyways, make a backup first08:39
jastivis it a good idea to use checkinstall or not?08:40
BodsdaWGGMk, splashy can let you put a background screen to the grub menu, so it does have access to grub settings08:40
MDKSIGNIs there a way to disable all restricted drivers - I installed ATI driver (don't think I needed it) and now my screen is blank :/08:40
WGGMkBodsda: now that you mention.. I have this utility called Kronos that makes images of systems.. so that you can re-image entire systems with current configs.. kinda like firewire imaging on MAC's.. but I usually do it after installing and getting setup before tinkering with things08:40
Flanneljastiv: checkinstall is better than straight compiling, but worse than proper package management08:40
macogwMDKSIGN: edit you xog.conf to use vesa instead of fglrx08:40
up_the_ironsmacogw: i run "nm-applet --sm-disable &" in my .Xsession so that the wireless works automatically.  Being new to Ubuntu on this laptop, I honestly don't know any other way to get wireless running08:40
WGGMkBodsda: seriously though.. you might be thinking of Splash Screen Manager08:41
macogwup_the_irons: you can install wicd08:41
macogwup_the_irons: or wifi-radar08:41
up_the_ironsmacogw: what are those?08:41
macogwup_the_irons: and use that in place of NM08:41
WGGMkbodsda: splashy is just an alternative to usplash08:41
macogwup_the_irons: same idea but not a panel icon08:41
up_the_ironsmacogw: oh neat08:41
BodsdaWGGMk, lemme find the site im thinkin of,.,.hang on08:41
macogwup_the_irons: some people's wireless cards dont work with NM, so they use those08:41
up_the_ironsmacogw: gotcha08:41
MDKSIGNIs there a shortcut to disable all restricted drivers?08:42
MDKSIGNor a command in terminal08:42
Tidusi still think that the choice of wireless config should be left to the user instead of forcing NM on the user08:42
up_the_ironsmacogw: i don't see wicd in apt-cache search, but i found wifi-radar08:42
macogwMDKSIGN: you could uninstall linux-restricted-modules08:42
Tiduskind of like openSuSE does08:42
MDKSIGNI cant see anything on my screen08:42
macogwup_the_irons: wicd is found through firefox08:42
MDKSIGN(im on live cd atm)08:42
Tidusthey ask you during install if you want to use networkmanager or the traditional ifupdown method08:42
macogwup_the_irons: ie. not in the repos08:42
compwiz18up_the_irons: if you want to try wicd, try wicd.net08:42
BodsdaWGGMk, i cant find the one i was looking for,.,.but this might interest you -- https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/splashy/+bug/9227608:42
up_the_ironsmacogw: compwiz18 : ah ok08:42
WGGMkBodsda: this is some starter info on Splashy http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Splashy08:42
macogwTidus: you can remove it08:42
macogwTidus: it works great for me...the only way to get WPA with ipw3945 on Dapper without insane amounts of work08:43
Tidusmacogw, i believe that it breaks ubuntu-desktop thop08:43
Tidustho *08:43
macogwTidus: no that was in Edgy..maybe Feisty08:43
Kasperlemagnetron: ah. compiz was to blame. it had both the desktop cube and the desktop wall enabled by default, which both grabbed the shortcuts08:43
WGGMkBodsda: thanks for the link.. ill read on that.08:43
macogwthey got rid of it being a dependency...just a recommends or suggests now08:43
Tidusmacogw, i use 7.10 and i think networkmanager is still a dependency08:43
Tidusi'm away from that machine or i'd go look08:44
WGGMkCan anyone tell me how to DISABLE usplash so that I can use splashy instead??08:44
BodsdaWGGMk, the wiki link u gave me, has a link to the splashy home page, where i found this line -- Make sure that you have “vga=791 splash” as kernel parameters. You can add this to /boot/grub/menu.lst or /etc/lilo.conf. See the FAQ section for more. see "grub"08:44
MDKSIGNI've installed some restricted driver for my monitor, now it says "out of range" on my screen, cpu is still working though, just cant see anything08:44
up_the_ironsmacogw: thanks for the help, i'll give those a spin08:44
macogwTidus: recommends08:44
Tidusah08:44
BodsdaWGGMk, on the wiki link, go to splashy home page, and follow installation instructions08:44
WGGMkBodsda: aye, however I don't use 1024x768 16bit I use a higher bootsplash resolution08:44
BodsdaWGGMk, that was my prob,. im sure my vga doesnt = 791 so i changed it and it broke my system08:45
Tiduswell i might have to removify it because the computer i'm having NM issues on has 2 network cards (one wired one wireless) functioning as a router with WLAN as the wan port08:45
Tidusbasically i'm sharing a borrowed wireless connection to my 3 computers08:45
macogwnice08:45
MDKSIGNIs there a command I can do in terminal to disable all restricted drivers?08:45
fotoflohey, i have a quick question, i am trying to use lsof -i, the manual says lsof -i [46][protocol][@hostname|hostaddr][:service|port] , but im having trouble formatting the command08:46
WGGMkBodsda: my trouble isn't installing splashy.. that's already done along with my theme.. the issue im having is usplash (the ubuntu default) overrides my splashy.. so I need to disable it08:46
fotoflois it lsof -i 4 tcp @localhost 80 ? why isnt that working?08:46

PoGzmadcogw: hey.. i found a new driver for Atheros. its madwifi-0.9.4.taz.bz2.. how do i install it?08:46
BodsdaWGGMk, i believe its a 'quiet' parameter in the boot line -- here you go -- http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=57570808:47
bakomhello, is there a way to convert the coding of a file from latin1 to utf8?08:47
BodsdaPoGz, follow the readme in the tarball08:47
TidusWGGMk, instead of 'ro quiet splash' in grub.conf change it to 'ro verbose nosplash'08:48
PoGzbodsda: lol08:48
macogwPoGz: hes not joking08:48
macogwPoGz: on linux, readme's are actually useful08:48
Tidusit should be in the 'default options' section of grub.conf or menu.lst08:48
Bodsdamacogw, thanks ;~)08:48
WGGMkTidus: with that still enable me to use splashy INSTEAD of usplash?08:48
PoGzok guys...08:48
BodsdaWGGMk, yes08:49
El1zsnes wont start. Starting in terminal, it says something like: "Starting Mouse detection.08:49
El1Unable to poll /dev/input/event8. Make sure you have read permissions to it."08:49
El1...Up to "event 0".08:49
El1Furter down it says: "can't create mcop directory.08:49
macogwnight all08:49
TidusWGGMk, if you change it to 'nosplash' that disables usplash and keeps the kernel in 80x25 text mode08:49
WGGMkBodsda: ill give it a shot then08:49
Bodsda!paste > El1       please read pm from ubotu08:49
BodsdaWGGMk, hope you have better luck then i did08:49
WGGMkTidus: what would I need to do to enable splashy > usplash08:49
Bodsda;~)08:49
fotofloanyone know whats going on with LSOF?08:49
TidusWGGMk, that i believe would be part of the initrd that is called right after the kernel starts08:50
WGGMkTidus: so just installing and configuring it should take care of it.. but I need to stop usplash from starting after GRUB then??08:50
Tidusyou'll notice there's 4 lines in the boot stanza for ubuntu.  the "root (hdx,x)" bit tells what partition to start from, the kernel line tells it where the kernel is, then you have an initrd line which calls the hardware detection and in some cases turns on splash, then the 'boot' line08:51
WGGMkTidus: ok, I think I got the info I needed.. and ill play around with it. thanks08:51
TidusWGGMk, but you might not have to change anything in the initrd08:51
TidusWGGMk, in the 'default boot options' in menu.lst or grub.conf you'll see 'ro quiet splash' or something to that effect08:51
Marbugit it normal that when I switch tabs in firefox, that it goes slow? like 1 second to switch a tab? if I got 2 windows it goes directly08:52
TidusWGGMk, change that to 'ro verbose nosplash' to keep the kernel in text mode08:52
jamesrdorn=( found a silence.wav file, but it's not enough data to triger the system08:52

luckyshothey guys, what compiler would i need and how would i install it on ubuntu for c programming?08:52
Tidusjamesrdorn, install audacity and create a silence wave or something that just sends a really low bass note08:52
MarbugBodsda, I got that from the beginning when I installed ubuntu08:52
Flannelluckyshot: install build-essential, that'll grab gcc and the core libs you need08:53
Marbugand I don't had that problem in kde08:53
jamesrdornTidus: got a 10" sub, I hope I can get a tone that doesnt trigger that sub all day =)08:53
fotoflohey, i have a quick question, i am trying to use lsof -i, the manual says lsof -i [46][protocol][@hostname|hostaddr][:service|port] , but im having trouble formatting the command, id like to get evrything i can about port 80 on the localhost08:53
BodsdaMarbug, you could double check, by using the livecd and seeing if the firefox on that is slow, if it is then its a problem with your machine, or your network08:53
luckyshotFlannel, thanks08:53
MDKSIGNhow do you start ubuntu in recovery mode?08:53
FlannelMDKSIGN: At the GRUB menu, choose the Recovery Mode option (you may need to hit escape to see the GRUB menu, right after the POST)08:54
fotoflo lsof -i80 is tehe command in redhat08:54
BodsdaMarbug, sudo apt-get purge firefox && sudo apt-get install firefox08:54
Tidusjamesrdorn, a 5hz sine wave at minimal volume wont annoy anybody08:54
MDKSIGNthanks flannel08:54
Marbughm k Bodsda but I don't think it would be a problem with my machine :) or even my network08:54
Tidus5hz is below the range of human hearing08:54
Bodsdaquick question, why is it && to link things in cli rather than just &08:54
FlannelBodsda: Its logical and08:54
jamesrdornTidus: found a nice sound, that triggers the system, but it's not silent at the end08:55
jamesrdornso installing  audacity08:55
Tidusor do the speakers 'pop' when they come back on?08:55
Tidusjamesrdorn, so install audacity and trim the loud part off the end of it08:55
BodsdaFlannel, ok, how is using two of one thing logical?08:55
jamesrdornI have never used audacity, but I am sure I can figure it out =)08:55
NForc3rhey guys how do i get my 5.1 audio to work like it does in windows08:55
NForc3rwindows has speaker fill and i cant get that in linux08:56
BodsdaNForc3r, install windows08:56
NForc3ri have08:56
NForc3rdual booted08:56
FlannelBodsda: Technically if you want to link something, you just do command1; command2.  ANDing them together will cause the second one to run only if the first one returns a 1 (success), so if it fails (returns 0) the computer knows that 0 && [anything] is 0, so it wont do the second command at all.08:56
Bodsdawhy do you want linux like windows08:56
MarbugBodsda, I did what you told, but it didn't changed anything08:56
NForc3rbut windows sucks massive hairy, disfigured, bloody, warty balls08:56
MarbugI think I just won't use tabs and just switch windows :s Bodsda08:56
NForc3rno i want my audio to work08:56
NForc3rLol much08:56
BodsdaFlannel, thankyou,. that helps, but why 2 & not 108:57
FlannelBodsda: because & is a bitwise operator, && is the logical one (in most languages, & on the command line is actually something different entirely)08:57
BodsdaFlannel, oh,. ok,. and what does a single & do in a bash shell?08:58
FlannelBodsda: `cmd &` will send cmd into the background immediately08:58
NForc3ranyone here have 5.1 surround sound that isnt suround in linux08:58
BodsdaFlannel, oopps,.,. i just remembered.,. i use single & signs from terminal daily,. damn,.,. sorry for wasting your time,.,.;~)08:59

phac3nothing beats firfox09:06
Marbugwhat do you mean with extensions ?09:06
phac3marbug:he means add-on09:06
Survivormanthe addons to firefox, like fasterfox, weather extensions, etc09:06

NET||abuseI don't seem to be able to select "enable DHCP" on the setup wizard here..10:43
fx|RabBitNET||abuse: to do connection sharing you have to configure firestarter to do NAT, ie. network adress translation. IF firestarter is NOT running it cant share the connection. that ewasy10:43

NET||abusenads.10:47
fx|RabBitNET||abuse: ??? nope buddy firestarter is a firewall not a wifi software;)10:47
NET||abusewhat do i do now?10:47
NET||abuseok, so firestarter will deal with the route config, but not make the wifi active as an AP10:47
osfameronwell, a firewall deals with both blocking things, and letting them through...10:47
NET||abusewhat should i do to make my wifi an AP?10:48
fx|RabBitNET||abuse: you need to have an existing connection on that wifi card of yours. when you goit that configure firestarter to direct traffic incomming from eth2 to leave your network on eth310:48
karuna_bdchow does wine work? it dont seem to be doing much for me10:48
NET||abusefx|RabBit, emm, i'm confused, it's the other way around, there is not a wifi network to connect to, my laptop connect to the internet over ethernet cable on eth2, so traffic from eth3 needs to be sent over eth2.. and i need to somehow turn on my wifi card to broadcast an SSID and allow connections?

ubotukaruna_bdc: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo11:26

kaushallordleemo: I have installed the e1000 module, I am able to connect to the internet only when i do the sudo killall pppd and then do sudo pon dsl-provider. Every now and then i have to do this for connecting to the Internet. I have configured ADSL over PPPOE using sudo pppoeconf and it has created pppoe_on_boot script also but I am unable to connect to the internet.11:38
fx|RabBitBodsda: which was exactly the reason why i apologized for giving false info and corrected myself a few lines below11:38
joleAfter installing ubuntu 7.04 I had Desktop Effects in System->Preferences menu. After installing compiz, it's gone. There is CompizConfig Settings Manager.11:38
kaushalAgain i have to do the sudo killall pppd and then do sudo pon dsl-provider to connect to the internet and then it works fine. Also NetworkManager Applet 0.6.4 keeps on rotating to get the network address11:38

hischildbullgard4, i'm sorry, the only package i know of this, would be battery-stats. It does collect info, but it doesn't seem to be build on a program. You might find in there what you are looking for.12:11
Slartsarthor_: don't know if you can experiment with this network.. but what happens if you change the gateway's ip to say 192.168.2.1 instead of 10.. it still gets duplicates?12:11
danand_barbarian-irc - don't feel bad... many internal wireless cards can be a pain. At least if you have to buy one you know you can _choose_ one that works with gnu/linux12:11
fx|RabBitsarthor_: i dont see the difference12:11

Slartsarthor_: all I can say is that I've used ubuntu as a dhcp server both at home and at a school with 40+ computers.. it has never done this to me before..12:14
Ubuntu1so this will remove everything then reinstall it so its fresh12:14
Ubuntu1i didnt work12:14
danand_Ubuntu1 - sudo apt-get --purge remove wine12:14
barbarian-ircbut it was on12:14
fx|RabBitUbuntu1 yes it does12:14
Ubuntu1how do i just unistall it12:14
sarthor_Slart, i think some virus is doing this.. on xp side.12:15
barbarian-ircthe wireless light is burning..12:15
danand_Ubuntu1 - sudo apt-get --purge remove wine12:15
sarthor_Slart, How to handel??12:15

atarihow can i identify an ubuntu? cat /etc/version or so?12:16
Slartatari: lsb_release -a12:16
Survivormanaptitude purge wine works12:16
bullgard4hischild: battery-stats is built on top of APM. APM is outdated and not enabled in my Ubuntu 7.10 computer. I will not consider it installing. A better solution is ACPI.12:16
atariSlart: can't i find it in a file in /etc/12:17
atari?12:17
Ubuntu1wine is still in app list how to completley remove all of its components12:17
Slartsarthor_: I'd find the computer with the duplicate ip-number and take a closer look at it12:17
Slartatari: it's not a config file.. it's a command12:17
Slartatari: run it in a terminal12:17
atariSlart: i wannt to find a way to identify a ubuntu in our installer script12:17
Survivormanpurge removes everything, but if it's in the menu, right click on it and edit it, or type alacarte in a terminal12:18
fx|RabBitsarthor_: agree with slart12:18
Slartatari: run lsb_release -a and parse the output... how do you check kernel version?12:18
danand_bod_ - yeah your right... apt is cleverer than i thought. i've only been using apt for about 8 years too ;)12:18
atariSlart: we do not check kernel version ;)12:18
bod_danand_, i win with 2 and a half months ,.,.;~)12:18
iceswordless /proc/version12:19
Slartatari: hehe.. bad developer!. .no cookie for you =)12:19
hischildbullgard4, i wasn't talking about isntalling it. but maybe that you might find some info there that might help you find what you're looking for. :-)12:19
atariSlart: it's not a system installer... it's for other purposes ;)12:19
Ubuntu1if i reinstall wine i will get the same folder bak havin my pre installed software listed but dont work12:19
atariSlart: but you could check the kernel version in /proc/version ;)12:19
danand_bod_ - guess i should hang my head in shame.... :) still, learning all the time!!12:20
Slartatari: /proc/version seems possible, as icesword said12:20
bashcahow can set wireless network ?? please12:20
joaranybody who's setup an encrypted home dir with luks and pam_mount here ?12:20
fx|RabBitUbuntu1: what output do you get when you apt-get --purge wine?12:20
danand_Slart - uname -r12:20
atarii just need a word to grep in /etc/ to identify a ubuntu ;)12:20
hischildbashca, what's up? do you have any wireless or is there a problem with wireless?12:20
bod_danand_, hang head ,.,.no no,.,. take notes! ;~),. nah, i learn loadsa stuff everyday from this channel,. its the shiz!!!12:20
Ubuntu1invalid operation12:20
Slartdanand_: without running a command.. you didn't read the rules of the contest ;)12:21
fx|RabBitUbuntu1: type sudo infront of the rest of the command12:21
Slartatari: well.. /proc/version does have ubuntu in it12:21
danand_Slart - oh. I'm not doing too well today am i :)12:21
Slartdanand_: hehe12:21

crhyloveHow do I install a font?12:22
atariSlart: ok. thank you ;)12:22
bazhangcrhylove: you can /msg ubotu fonts for more and a link12:22
unholymarriagegparted worked , as far as i know, to revert it back to swap12:22
joaratari: not so elegant, but U could always check /etc/apt/sources.list ...12:22
Slartatari: you're welcome.. not that I contributed a lot12:22
danand_!fonts | crhylove12:22
fx|RabBitUbuntu1: sudo apt-get purge wine12:22
ubotucrhylove: Font installation basics here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FontInstallHowto - No fonts in Flash? Install "msttcorefonts" (from !Multiverse), "gsfonts", and "gsfonts-x11". No fonts in MPlayer? see !MPlayer12:22
atarihehe12:23
bullgard4hischild: I could analyze the source code of battery-stats. But I consider it outdated in view of the fact that all modern development in this area is based on ACPI. I believe that there should be tools available to query the SMBus devices on my motherboard.12:23
Ubuntu1not installed so not removed12:23
sarthor_Slart, fx|RabBit  sorry, I am back now.12:23
crhylovedanand_:12:23
crhyloveThanks12:23
hischildbullgard4, i'm looking for the one that currently tracks my battery stats ...12:23
fx|RabBitsarthor_: np:)12:23
sarthor_Slart, all the computer in my cafe are deepfreeze12:23
fx|RabBitsarthor_: haha what does that mean?12:24
Slartsarthor_: deepfreeze? you've got bigger problems then dhcp server settings I think =)12:24
crhyloveWait, that is horrifying.  I would like it if I could just right click my ttf file, and select "install font"12:24
Slart*than12:24
crhyloveis there a gui way to do it?12:24
danand_crhylove - short version is you can create a folder in your home dir named .fonts and put all fonts you download in there :)12:24
crhylovecool. thanks12:24
sarthor_Slart, really? Shuld i have to remove the deepfreez??12:24
fx|RabBithahaha12:25
cute_girl#Tangerang12:25
danand_crhylove - you can just drag 'n' drop in a file manager12:25
fx|RabBitwhats he talking about? XD12:25
cute_girl#Tangerang12:25
fx|RabBitsarthor_: ?12:25
crhylovegot it now.12:25
crhylovethank you.12:25
sarthor_Slart, fx|RabBit before some days all the cafe was on manual ip setting but this problem comming again and again.12:25
Slartsarthor_: ah.. you mean the image-reinstall-when-restarting thingy.. I thoguht they all died on you =)12:26
danand_crhylove - np12:26
crhylovethere should really be a right click "install font" option.12:26
hischildbullgard4, it seems that gnome-power-manager is currently being used on my box12:26
crhylovegood luck getting that into launchpad.  *sigh*12:26
danand_crhylove - agreed. Font management is a bit confusing12:26
fx|RabBitsarthor_: as Slart said before, take a closer look to that computers with identical ip adresses, one of them for sure has it set to static instead of dhcp12:27
sarthor_fx|RabBit, i have check serveral time, there is not static ip.12:27
fx|RabBitsarthor_: OR set that dhcp range to something completely different in your cfg12:27
Ubuntu1need new apps to entertain me anyone know of anything good12:27
fx|RabBithumm12:27
Piethi i installed apache, tomcat and mod_jk when im testing a jsp site it forwards to tomcat index instead of my own index.jsp12:28
unholymarriagewhat kind Ubuntu??12:28
Ubuntu1anything12:28
SlartUbuntu1: google for "phun beta".. it will keep you entertained for.. say.. 4 minutes or so12:28
sarthor_fx|RabBit, i change all the ip setting to manual, but the problem was not solved12:28
kenpotfhi all12:28
ArthurArchnixHow can I permamently disable wake-on-lan for my ethernet card? I never use this feature. "sudo ethtool -s eth0 wol d" turns it off, but doesn't persist across reboots. Is there a config file for the ethernet card somewhere, or perhaps I should simply add "ethtool -s eth0 wol d" to /etc/rc.local and make that file executable... thoughts?12:28
fx|RabBitsarthor_: you set all of the ips manually and still had dupilcates??12:28
sinsun_I have a question. I' ve heard that 3D animation studio use linux much. Why?12:28
danand_Ubuntu1  - moon-lander :)12:28
sarthor_fx|RabBit, Yes,12:28
kenpotfhow can i create a launcher in gnome to run a web server on a certain port and then automatically launch firefox to that location?12:29
Survivormanfrozen-bubble is entertaining12:29
fx|RabBitArthurArchnix: in that case turn it off in bios!12:29
Slartsarthor_: you have windows machines as clients ? what happens if you run a  "ipconfig /release" and "ipconfig /renew" on that special computer12:29
sarthor_fx|RabBit, its the problem from 1 month here, in my 4 cafes12:29
Slartsarthor_: it gets the 192.168.0.1 ip again?12:29
unholymarriagebecause you can connect many linux boxes to gether and cread a 3d rendering farm12:29
fx|RabBitsarthor_: that problem occurs on 4 different locations???12:29
Slartsarthor_: it gets the 192.168.2.1 ip again? (typo)12:30
sarthor_fx|RabBit, Yes, on differenct locatoin same problem12:30
ArthurArchnixfx|RabBit: Sadly, I don't have that option in my bios. HP doesn't consider me responsible enough to use it wisely perhaps. Or maybe they just don't give that support to people who buy cheap HP laptops. :)12:30
bullgard4hischild: A high-level program that provides the information you requested is the Gnome_Power_Manager applet. Right-cklick. A context menu will appear. Click on the second menu item 'Power history'.12:30
Ubuntu1how can i run ms office on ubuntu12:30
fx|RabBitsarthor_: because if you have that problem with manually set ips its for sure not a linux dhcp server problem...12:30
sinsun_unholymarriage: does there many software to create animation? 3DMax?12:30
SlartUbuntu1: wine perhaps12:30
Ubuntu1wats the command for the latest version of wine12:31
hischildbullgard4, wasn't that what i said up far?12:31
SlartUbuntu1: open office is sufficient for many users.. try it first..12:31

SlartUbuntu1: no need to starting using ugly names for things...12:31
* bod_ leaves the building12:31
sinsun_unholymarriage: blender is that strong? wow12:32
bullgard4hischild: Well, so much better. That seems to satisfy xour needs. But I am interested in the primary (low-level) information.12:32
bullgard4your12:32
unholymarriageUbuntu...open office is better than office in my opinion...it supports like every file format basically12:32

sarthor_ipconfig show me the only ip that i have put manually, Not the other one.12:34

bullgard4homebase: If you are running Windows then your question is a Wondows-related question and not a Linux-related question.12:41
homebaseSlart, its a standard linux server install12:41
bullgard4Windows12:41
homebaseSlart, Ill check the sources.list tho12:41
homebasebullgard, the client is windows, the telnet server is linux...12:41
Slarthomebase: but once again.. if I were you I'd install ssh and use putty on the windows machine12:41
Slart!putty12:42
ubotuSSH is the Secure SHell protocol. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto for usage. Putty is a nice SSH client for Windows; it can be found at http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/12:42
fevelim trying to access a shared folder on another ubuntu machine but it asks for a password to show the files, no password works, any ideas?12:42
unholymarriageyes telnet passwords are plain text in the open...12:42
homebaseSlart, aha, i know why, installer failed to verify so it cut almost all of the sources out12:42
homebaseunholymarriage, its running on an internal home network12:42
ZeroA4fevel, change the security to "share" and chage the owner of the folder to nobody12:42
bullgard4homebase: yes. So get Windows information how Windows will function as a telnet client12:42
Slarthomebase: ah.. problem solved12:43
homebasebullgard4, i know how to do the windows part just not the linux part12:43
homebaseSlart, thanks for your help12:43
Slarthomebase: you're welcome12:43
unholymarriageoh ok...well is telnet running on your windows machine as a service ....a lot of times security suites turn it off .12:43
homebaseunholymarriage, its okay problem solved, the installer on my server had cut all the repositories out due to not having a network connetion at the time12:44
homebaseunholymarriage, so i re-enabled all of the repo's and then now i can install it12:45
unholymarriageoh ok thats good then12:45
homebaseunholymarriage, i like linux for servers, its simple but i like windows better for desktops it just has that finished feel to it12:45
homebaseunholymarriage, but no arguements that linux does make the better desktop its just personal preference12:46
* Slart hands homebase the asbestos-suite.. you'll need it after a comment like that ;)12:46

StofferI'm running fsck on an external hard drive:  Error reading block 1441 (Attempt to read block from filesystem resulted in short read) while getting next inode from scan.  Ignore error<y>? yes"  That was a correct decision, right?14:56
FiskejohnBut well does anyone know how to put songs into my ipod, and make them playable :) My problem is i can't see the songs but they are useing my capacility14:56
sofiankrtdonkey: ok, now go back to synaptic, and check that             ndiswrapper-utils            is installed14:56
Stofferbut I should hit "yes" for "Force rewrite" too?14:56
NotscapeSarge: log in a virtual console !14:56
sofiankrtFiskejohn: your songs are of which format?14:56
Fiskejohnsofiankrt: mp3 files14:56
SargeXPi try and change the files from kboot, but i get "Read-Only File System"14:57
bazhangFiskejohn: did you mount the ipod via amarok? open amarok then plug in the device and you should see something about mount device top left of front amarok window14:57
donkeysofiankrt: yes its installed14:57
SargeXPmay somebody help me with this issue, please ?14:57
bazhangkatzenjammer: and which one did you choose?14:57
sofiankrtdonkey: I've one last idea. go to system > preferences > main menu14:57
Fiskejohnbazhang: Yeah i did mount my ipod correctly and it is adding songs to my ipod. But i can't find them when iam on my ipod.14:58
katzenjammerbazhang, i had the possibility to choose one or the other withoud problems. all worked in both cases14:58
donkeysofiankrt, ok14:58
sofiankrtSargeXP: in which directories are these files?14:58
Fiskejohnbazhang: if i browse the ipod via system i can see all the songs are in ipod_Control14:58
katzenjammerbazhang, now i cant open the volume control gui anymore14:58
bazhangFiskejohn: you transferred them how? by putting them in the transfer list? and then hitting transfer?14:58
Fiskejohnbazhang: Yeah exacly14:59
SargeXP-- /etc/kboot.conf && /etc/X11/xorg.conf14:59
storm-zenwhat is the application that ubuntu uses for a screensaver named?  I have a custom perl script that plugs into a series of scripts that I use for tracking time that needs to be able to monitor output from the screensaver.  xscreensaver provides this capability... does the default screensaver do this as well?14:59
sofiankrtdonkey: now go all the way down to administration (check system, if it's unchecked)14:59
sofiankrtSargeXP: ok, can you ls -l these directories in the terminal, please?14:59
SargeXPone second14:59
donkeyim at administration what exactly do you want to know if it is checked?14:59
bazhangkatzenjammer: can you get back to that choice and choose the other option15:00
danand_xukun - you can do a simulation of apt-get install ie sudo apt-get -s install ubuntu-restricted-extras. This should show you the packages that would be installed by that command15:00
donkeysofiankrt: cause everything is check in it15:00
katzenjammerbazhang, no, cause i cant open the panel15:00
sofiankrtdonkey: at the panel on the right, go all the way down, you should see Windows Wireless Drivers15:00
Administrator__hi15:00
xukundanand_, thanks again15:00
bazhangkatzenjammer: the icon in the panel--try right clicking on it still no effect?15:00
storm-zen!screensaver15:01
ubotuSorry, I don't know anything about screensaver - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi15:01
Administrator__if i want to be able to upgrade to (instead of freshly install) future ubuntu versions,15:01
Fiskejohnbazhang: Yeah exacly15:01
Administrator__should i download the default iso or the Alternate ISO?15:01
AndycasssWhen i try to upload to my pure-ftpd server the speed drops to 0 after every 2-3 seconds. Im inside LAN so speeds should be 20 mbps, but instead i upload 60kb/s????? Im using -E -j -A -I 5 -4 -p 1500:2000 arguments15:01
donkeysofiankrt: still dont see thazT15:01
bazhangFiskejohn: and when you turn on your ipod you have zero songs on it--is that correct15:01
robnboth end in the same result, Administrator__15:01
danand_xukun - np15:01
sofiankrtdonkey: sorry, I have no idea15:02
Jack_SparrowAdministrator__: what hardware do you have?15:02
Fiskejohnbazhang: Thats correct, i can't browse my songs on my ipod15:02
bazhangAdministrator__: depends on your system really15:02
j_is there a progrqam to use iso like daemon tool?15:02
Administrator__pc15:02
bazhangFiskejohn: and you read that link I gave you earlier I suppose15:02
donkeycan we ask someone else?15:02
katzenjammerbazhang, right click menu pops up, but if i click "open volume control" it gives "No GStreamer plugin or volume control disp found"15:02
SargeXPok, they are both, -rw-r--r--15:02
Jack_SparrowAdministrator__: If you dont mind a text based installer and dont need to try and run a livecd for evaluation.. the alt would be my choice15:02
Fiskejohnbazhang: Yeah the wiki link?15:02
bazhangj_: use iso--mount view write or what15:03
robnj_: you want to mount the iso?15:03
bazhangFiskejohn: yeah did you read the wiki15:03
j_robn yea15:03
Administrator__i also have a problem with the vmlinuz running from grub15:03

sofiankrtSargeXP: I don't know if this will help, but try to              cd these directories                then               chmod 755 *15:03
donkeyi have a question. I put UBUNTU on my computer (sony vaio) and i have the wireless internet. Whenever i resart my computer i always have to go to System>Admin>Network and change the Manual configuration to WPA2 Personal where it says Password type..... Is there any way i can get it where i dont have to do that anymore???15:03
bazhangFiskejohn: this is very odd--I have several models of ipod including that one and they all work with ubuntu gutsy15:04
SargeXPok, let me try.15:04
Fiskejohnbazhang: Upgrading to at least libgpod 0.6.0 may solve your problems. Otherwise, have a look at the Gtkpod wiki or follow these steps15:04
sofiankrtSargeXP: actually, it's sudo chmod 755 *15:04
krimdonkey: Did you try searching for the name of your laptop on the Ubuntu forums?15:04
bazhangdonkey: you dont want to add the password--too much trouble is that it15:04

Jack_Sparrowdonkey: Are you running under wubi ?15:05
sofiankrthow do you do this:          ***jamesrdorn turns on his metallica Black album DVD w/ full 5.1 surround15:05
donkeybazhang, i didnt add the password it just asks password type and if i do WPA Personal it doesnt work but when i do WPA2 Personal it does15:05
donkeyJack, wubi?15:06
bazhangFiskejohn: not sure as I have never had to follow that wiki--by the time I started using the ipods with ubuntu gutsy it was already fixed15:06
jamesrdornsofiankrt: find a site for irc commands... that one happend to be "/me turns on his...."15:06

katzenjammerbazhang, maybe i should re-install ubuntu? :(15:06
Jack_Sparrowdonkey: Yes.. wubi as in not a normal hard drive install.15:06
SargeXPIt tells me that all the files are of Read-Only File System15:06
sofiankrtsorry SargeXP, try to change the user to your username, and the group to your group15:07
j_robn can i find that in add/remove15:07
donkeyno its that when i restart my computer i have to reconfigure my wirless for it to work15:07
sofiankrtSargeXP: and make sure you're working on ext315:07
sofiankrtbut I got to go15:07
donkeyjack. how do i tell if its wubi15:07
bazhangkatzenjammer: nah that is likely not necessary--there are some actual people who know things about sound--just not me ;[15:07
krimdonkey: ubuntuforums.org or you could search from google by doing site:ubuntuforums.org yourlaptop yourproblem. Chances are someone has had the same problem so the solution might be there. Good luck15:07

donkeyJack. so what do you think the problem is15:19
Fiskejohnbazhang: Yeah i see :)15:19
robnj_, no probs, have fun15:19
bazhangFiskejohn: and what does that window say when you are in the devices for your iPod15:19
Jack_Sparrowdonkey: I came in late, didnt see the entire problem, something about encryption.. on wireless15:20

Jack_Sparrowdonkey: USe synaptic to see if you have network-manager installed  and one other question did you install wifi radar...  if not... dont15:24

storm-zen( preferably without uninstalling ubuntu-desktop, if that's still an issue in gutsy. )15:40
Jack_Sparrowx-fak: first option in your grub list is 0 which is the default.. move what you want to the lop of the list or change 0 to the option you want as default15:40
alc861i also tried from the ubuntu lenovo howto15:40
Jack_Sparrow!enter | alc86115:40

x-fakok thank Jack_Sparrow15:41
Jack_Sparrownp15:41
alc861sorry i type enter everytime auto15:41
linuxnutalc861: Your problem may lie in some module breaking with the 2.6.22 kernel15:41
alc861should i install a new kernel or an older one?15:41
linuxnutalc861: Hold up. Did sound ever work with ubuntu?15:41
Fiskejohnbazhang: Well at the main window above devices it says Ipod at /dev/sdb1 (Mounted at /media/IPOD)baz15:41
Jack_Sparrowalc861:  try /j #alsa  they are good at fixing those15:42
amenadostorm-zen-> is xscreensaver installed on yours?15:42
alc861it has never worked, its a fresh install15:42
linuxnutalc861: I mean with fiesty or any older version of ubuntu?15:42
storm-zenamenado: Yes, I installed it.15:42
alc861don`t know15:42
amenadostorm-zen-> and what is the issue?15:42
storm-zenamenado: Is there a way to get it to run automatically?15:42
bazhangFiskejohn: just a moment please--reading a long thread at ubuntuforums on this..15:42
ararathi all15:43
Jack_Sparrowalc861: did you do the sound troubleshooting page or the intelhda help page if it is hda15:43
storm-zenamenado: Well, the issue was that gnome screensaver was being used, but now that it's uninstalled, I don't think it's going to be an issue anymore. :)15:43
amenadostorm-zen-> xscreensaver-command  -activate to test it,  xscreeensaver &  to run it in background15:43
alc861Jack_Sparrow: yes i do there is a page for my lenovo laptop which i tried15:43
linuxnutalc861: Alright. does this look similar to your problem?15:44
linuxnutalc861: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/13981415:44
storm-zenamenado: I was also reading a thread that seemed to suggest that uninstalling it could take away ubuntu-desktop, but that didn't happen when I tried it, so no harm, no foul.15:44
Fiskejohnbazhang: Thanks alot :) Sorry to disturb :D15:44
storm-zenamenado: Thanks again.15:44

nortyamenado, i dont use any options15:48
Jack_Sparrowivan__: what is the problem.. see also /j #Compiz15:48
nortyLjL, thanks!15:49
linuxnutLjL: Is that a universal command or program specific?15:49
storm-zenamenado: Ok.. Maybe a slight issue.  Just have two choices for screensavers.  Did I do something wrong?15:49
LjLlinuxnut: uh? it's a GCC option... most programs don't have a concept of "warnings" to begin with15:49
linuxnutLjL: My bad. I missed the GCC bit somehow.15:50
LjLnorty: unasked for advice: warnings shouldn't be ignored. your code should not result in warnings being issue to begin with15:50
amenadostorm-zen-> i dont understand... did you look if it is use  /usr/share/backgrounds ?15:50
storm-zenamenado: Now I don't understand.  But I'll look in /usr/share/backgrounds.  ( The two screensaver options I have are HyperTorus and XMatrix ).15:51

ubotulibgpod2 (source: libgpod): a library to read and write songs and artwork to an iPod. In component main, is optional. Version 0.5.2-2 (gutsy), package size 177 kB, installed size 376 kB15:53
storm-zenamenado: That will increase the number of screensavers?  ( I'm not sure that I'm effectively communicating my issue. )15:53
Jack_Sparrowivan__: So you just lost the window decorator..  dont fret..15:53
_Oz_bruum: it's unlikely that ubuntu has anything to do with your d/l speed15:54
bazhangFiskejohn: now disconnect the ipod safely and see if it shows up--then we have some other stuff to do if not15:54

bazhangFiskejohn: aha--that is what I feared--well the libgpod in gutsy is too old--we need the 0.6.0 and gutsy only has 0.5.2-215:56
amenadostorm-zen-> i suggest peek under the advance  radio button, and it may show you where it gets those 50+ screensavers15:56
Jack_SparrowBruum: It may have to do with how well your network card is supported in linux..  what card is it?15:56

Now I want to remove windows, but I fear that I will not be able to boot grub anymore when I do so (even if grub is on the / partition). In GParted, sda1 has a Flag saying "boot"16:20

Slartmrnotproper: wall <enter>Write message here.. Ctrl+D when finished16:46
CorruptTerroristcan i use the windows install disk?16:46
Fiskejohnbazhang: but i am cd in this anton@anton:~/Skrivebord/Rod/libgpod-0.6.0$16:46
MasterShrakSquawk thats so it has support for all kinds of hardware, you are used to gentoo where you compile for your specific hardware16:47
Fiskejohnbazhang: says "Command not found"16:47
mrnotproperSlart: thanks16:47
bazhangFiskejohn: did you cd into that folder?16:47
WhateverRandom; I have selected the rotate cube option.16:47
WhateverHow do I activate it16:47
SlartWhatever: you have to bind keys to it16:47
Fiskejohnbazhang: Yeah when i tried the command above it cd into the folder :(16:47
MasterShrakSquawk you can go through the process of either disabling all sorts of modules, or trying to compile from scratch without a config file, but both would take a long time, i usually just compile all the modules cuz im lazy heh16:47
SquawkMasterShrak, yeah, actualy I think its a good idea16:47
neetoI am trying to run MAME, and even with no controller/keyboard plugged in, something seems to be stuck pointing up, because when I get into the menu, the selection is scrolling to the next item faster and faster, and it accellerates. This seems to happen on xmame, sgl-mame, xmess and even the windows version of mame running over wine. does anyone have any ideas as to how to fix this?16:48
wilhart-what was the command to upgrade to hardy ?16:48
Slartneeto: sounds like it think's a joystick is attached perhaps16:48
MasterShrakSquawk i think the gentoo kernel on the cd is pretty much like that, it needs support for lots of hardware16:48
bazhangFiskejohn: you tried cd libgpod-0.6.0 ?16:48
Jack_Sparrow /msg Chanserv op #Ubuntu %u%n16:48
SquawkMasterShrak, I agree, as long as they are all modules then who cares if they are compiled, not like we struggle for hd space/processor speed these days ;) When I ran debian on a 80mhz proc it was different16:48
Whateverslart: I am trying to do that, but under "key" it keeps on going back to disabled16:48

CorruptTerroristMasterShrak, but i fear that grub may not work AT ALL... so can i use the windows disk to restore the windows bootloader?16:51
_Oz_corruptterrorirst: it's recommended to stick with GRUB for your bootloader.  GRUB respects the windows install you have.  It is very difficult to convince your windows bootloader that you have any OS other than a Microsoft product.16:52
|Dreams|http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/57351/16:52
dmooreanswer my question16:52
Slart_Oz_: windows comes with a lot of drivers for usb stuff.. ubuntu doesn't come with as many drivers.. I don't think plug'n'play helps you with the drivers part16:52
MasterShrakCorruptTerrorist yes, put it in like you were going to install, and enter the recovery console, when you get to a command prompt type: fixmbr16:52

mibukI would like to create a package that not only wraps up a commercial application we want deployed to our linux workstations, but needs to update the default /etc/bash.bashrc to source an environment variable setup script.  Whats the best way of doing this.  obviously simply packaging a replacement bash.bashrc would be bad as someone may have customised it17:02
bazhangFiskejohn: from reading ubuntuforums if this does not work (I hope we have the path right) then we need to sudo make install instead of checkinstall17:02

MasterShrakOrangetea have you messed with your kernel or anything? thats quite an error17:04
SlartMurielGodoi: when it comes to raid there are three kinds.. real raid - costs money but is fast and reliable, fakeraid - the kind many motherboards have built in.. still does most of the processing in the cpu so it doesn't give you any extra speed or reliability.. stay away from these, Software raid - everything is done in cpu.. no speed gain but works on all computers without extra hardware... perfect for your home server and such17:04

heymrCorruptTerrorist, 1.5 gigs should be fine.. with so much RAM a big swap is not so neccesary. booting wants ram, not swap17:13

ejerhi bazhang17:18
Falgor_or format the whole drive17:18
sarahGreetings. I just installed Ubuntu and I'm having some weird issues. For instance, each time I open the totem media player, my screen flickers to black and then back on again. The beryl zoom function (super+scroll) also affects two areras on the screen, a square in the upper left corner and the rest - completely independently! Anyone ever heard of this?17:18
heymrFalgor_, get gparted live cd. great for formatting17:18
erUSULganu: no problem17:18
Falgor_heymr, no other way?17:19
Jack_Sparrowvictorribeiro: envy is a really bad thing17:19
Jack_Sparrowvictorribeiro: To save yourself future headaches...  start with a fresh install and come back17:19
heymrsarah, turn off desktop effects and try it. alt f2 and type metacity --replace17:19
Jack_SparrowFalgor_: And I told you..17:20
sarahheymr: Alright, giving that a go.17:20
heymrFalgor_, its the best way. wait... did you install with wubi?  ...lol17:20
Falgor_"Falgor_: Install anything you want right over the top"17:20
sarahheymr: Nope, still flickering.17:20
victorribeiroJack_Sparrow,  man I've been trying everything, not seems to work17:20
sarahVery peculiar.17:20

heymrsarah, that is a different video player, try it17:21
sarahI know it. :) Giving it a go.17:22

MasterShrak!dvd | korte197517:22

Jack_SparrowFalgor_: gparted livecd which you were also already told would work17:22
Squawkhey fellas, can anyone confirm the existence of the "microsoft ergonomic keyboard" option in the 2.6.24.2 kernel?, cos I cant see the damn thing17:22
CorruptTerroristheymr, i'm willing to give up about 20-50gb17:22
heymrkorte1975, you need some dvd css thing. google17:22
Jack_SparrowFalgor_: the ubuntu livecd with gparted will also work..17:22
bazhangSquawk: better head over to #ubuntu+1 for that ;]17:23
Falgor_Jack_Sparrow, yes. I was just asking if it was possible without another livecd.... I dont know if I have gparted on this cd.17:23
heymrCorruptTerrorist, you do not need that much! :) 6 GB is PLENTY17:23
ejerCorruptTerrorist: anything above 1.5x your ram is a waste imo17:23
MasterShrakSquawk it probably uses a generic driver, also nobody here would probably know as most ubuntu users dont compile their own kernel (try #linux)17:23
CorruptTerroristheymr, i meant for my installation17:23
Jack_SparrowFalgor_: You NEED to go ask for support in the channel that supports the OS you want to install.. this is NOT the place17:23
sinsun_I'd want to hold a forum. Which platform is good for me. I' ve googled. but if there's a experienced maintainer who can give me advise will be great.17:23
Fiskejohnbazhang: Ok17:23
heymrCorruptTerrorist, oh, lol... thats fine...17:23
heymri had a 40 gb drive and i split it when i dual booted17:23
bazhangFiskejohn: this is nice so far... have you unpacked it yet?17:23
Falgor_Jack_Sparrow, I havent mentioned windows in my last few sentences.17:24
CorruptTerroristok... what format do i need to give to the swap and what format for ubuntu?17:24
sarahheymr: No flickering in vlc. Very odd.17:24
fabiohi there17:24
MasterShraksinsun which platform as far as architecture or desktop environment?17:24
heymrsarah, hows it going?17:24
heymrsarah, ok17:24

fabioi have a question for you17:24
SquawkMasterShrak, found some guide saying its supported (admitedly on the gentoo site, but discussing vanilla sources I think), but no matter.17:24
Falgor_can I somehow check if there's gparted on my ubuntu install cd?17:24
fabiohow can i get the mirror effect for the cube  in compiz ?17:24

kostkon_moro_bana_, test it with ekiga, cheese, camorama, etc.17:31
Squawkejer, it doesnt, which is most of the problem. If I could figure that out I would just autoload it. All it says is "[   39.671075] input: Microsoft Natural� Ergonomic Keyboard 4000 as /class/input/input3"17:31

dirtyhandEverytime i empty my auth.log file, it keeps getting refilled again with the old log stuff... why?17:33

heymreffie_jayx, xorgconfig in a terminal17:34

scott_Hey, I'm new to linux and I'm trying to figure out where I would place a folder with a program in it.18:14
roxja-itSlart: will do sir18:14
geniusbut software i am talking about traces then saves ping info about all hosts it traced. it shows all info about dropped packets min/max/avg ping to all hosts. and you can set test time18:14
amenadoSquawk-> liveCd uses dhcp by default18:14
Squawkscott_, depends what you want to do with it18:14
sboxejer: its just that seems to turn the monitor off and put the thing to sleep without it waking up, running hibernate actually hibernates the thing18:14
nickrudMindSpark: don't really know the cause, just that it's 'always been that way'18:14
Slartroxja-it: and stop calling me sir.. you make me want to send you on a 4 mile run18:14
scott_Squak> It's called "songbird"18:14
Squawkamenado, I meant if he has a dhcp server running, not if he has a client on hte livecd18:14
MindSparknickrud, only on ubuntu though, eh ?18:14
nickrudMindSpark: no, linux wide18:14
ahmedubuntu-sa18:15
scott_Squawk>> A file sharing program.18:15
roxja-itSlart: maybe I wanna go on a 4 mile run :) sorted now thanks that was doing my head in18:15
Squawkscott_, you can put it anywhere you want. Run an executable with ./filename, or else learn about your $PATH18:15
MindSparkgroups and user info is independent of X18:15
amenadoSquawk->  he is gone, we will find out soon if he gets back18:15
lesjohnis there a way i can capture all the sound coming out of firefox?18:15
benny269erUSUL: should i go for jdk5 or jdk6?18:15
jorje-villafanejer: I tried to reinstall file roller but it didn't help18:15
Slartroxja-it: gnash is a nice initiative.. but it's got a long way to go until it's comparable to adobe flash18:15
Squawklesjohn, there are applications to capture sound going to your soundcard, but I cant remember what. Dont tihnk you can do it application specific18:16
nickrudMindSpark: filesystem, below X. If you'd had another console shell open, you still wouldn't be recognized as part of that group18:16
mrpocketsanyone know how to get "outside" the cub e?18:16
bazhangFiskejohn: you still there? in the terminal type winecfg18:16
MindSparknickrud, yes, but X doesn't run on shell, does it ?18:16
scott_Squawk>> $Path... Got it. Silly me! What was I thinking!?18:16
roxja-itSlart: ah ya, side by side with adobe is a nightmare18:16
Squawkscott_, be careful what you put in your path18:17
hopelesshi! i'm currently running fedora 5, and i want to install gutsy gibbon on a new root partition (but keep my old home partition). i have a few questions. first, should i tell the ubuntu installer to set the mount point of my old home partition to /home? second, should i set the mount point of my first partition (which i assume is the boot partition) to /boot, or will the installer detect the existing copy of grub automatically?18:17
nickrudMindSpark: the user is active. That's the key, not shell, or anything else. Try creating a test group, and having two shells open.18:17
erUSULbenny269: dunno latest is better??18:17
benny269erUSUL: fair play18:17
MindSparknickrud, ahuh, doesn't update until user is logged out from everything eh ?18:18
nickrudMindSpark: correct18:18
scott_Squawk>> Well, I have no choice but to be reckless and 'fly by the seat of my pants'.18:18
Squawkhopeless, best bet if you want to use your old grub is to configure it entirly using fedora and foget it from ubuntu till you have working ubuntu18:18
Squawkscott_, what changes are you making to your path? you can just put an alias in .bashrc to run the given command18:18
MindSparknickrud, alright, thanks. You never stop learning anything with linux I guess.18:18
^jasonhi can anyone pm me i need to know a few questions before i install kubuntu18:18
nickrudMindSpark: daily myself18:19
Squawk!ask | ^jason18:19
ubotu^jason: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-)18:19
roxja-ithopeless: as long as you leave the fedora partitions alone during install, I would image that any mistakes you make would be editable through grub18:19
MindSparkthat's the main reason I switched from windows 10 years ago18:19
geniusSquawk: pathping in win server18:19
MindSparkI didn't find anything interesting anymore18:19
scott_Squawk>> Dunno. I'm just trying to install this program so I don't have to run it from the folder sitting on my desktop - I'm a but of a neat freak.18:19
hopelesssquawk: i don't care if i use my old grub or a new grub... i just want to be able to dual-boot fedora and ubuntu in the easiest way possible. i've heard that ubuntu is good at detecting existing linux installs, so i was thinking about letting ubuntu reinstall grub18:19
amenadohopeless you can install ubuntu and have the minimum / partition mounted,  you can use your old swap, your old /home shud be left alone, and once you have an ubuntu running you can always modify /etc/passwd to point to your old /home18:19
Fiskejohnbazhang: Ill do18:19
^jasonwill kubuntu fit on my old 3 gig harddrive?18:20
geniusAbout ping-trace utility http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pathping18:20
Fiskejohnbazhang: Something odd oppend :?!18:20
Squawkhopeless, must admit ubuntu deteceted both my gentoo and windows installs, but I told it not to install grub and just added an entry to my grub from gentoo, so I can be sure how it will behave18:20
amenadohopeless, ubuntu may have different uid numbering than fedora, thats why i suggest leaving old /home untouched18:20
hopelessroxja-it: so setting the mount point of my old home partition to /home definitely won't damage it? i really don't want to have to use my backups, so i want to be sure...18:21
Squawkscott_, you just want to type "filename" and it run the command18:21

bazhangFiskejohn: just type winecfg in the terminal, then cd to where you have downloaded that file and type wine iTunesSetup.exe18:21

chazcoHi... i have Ubuntu 7.10 running a local LAMP server... is it possible to move where mysql stores its data to another partition?18:25
Odd-rationalehopeless: You should do that during install.18:26
Squawkscott_, nothing is kept in "the path". Your path is a list of directories in which commands that will run are stored. You can add any directory to your path. I never, ever run a command in linux using double click (unless its something like clicking on an image to open it), but you have complete freedom. If I ever write scripts they go in my ~/scripts dir18:26
Squawkhopeless, edit /etc/fstab so that /home points to the rigt partition18:26

bluefox83ejer, yeah, i'm all sorts of surprised18:41
Squawkchocolatewithmin, one application in particular, or any application that can be maximised?18:41

isaacj87easy question for anyone...I compiled compiz fusion from GIT....how do I check what version I'm running?18:42
bluefox83hey, all they suggested was resetting the bios, which wont hurt my installation :P18:42
hdevalencetwosouls82: thanks!18:42
amenadoArthurArchnix-> nope, since rc.local is already owned by root18:42
jgoohey all -  added a KVM to my machine, it starts in low resolution mode - which is fine. I can select a 1440x900 widescreen option in the generic screen - but whsateer I do it oesn't apply it18:42

nickrudisaacj87: --version works with nearly any app (sometimes -version)18:44
isaacj87graft: I had to use "compiz --version"18:44
graftisaacj87: that might just give you the metacity version18:44
Fiskejohnbazhang: No it was kinda why i changed to linux :)18:44
graftisaacj87: or whatever your selected WM is18:44
chocolatewithmingraft: x driver? don't understand, maybe you're asking for the driver? ati radeon x700 + xgl + compiz18:44

graftchocolatewithmin: try doing it without compiz running and see what happens18:45
Fiskejohnbazhang: I hate vista more then anything alse :)18:45
bazhangFiskejohn: then the last path seems to be the first one we took which is to sudo make install instead of checkinstall and see how that turns out18:45
chocolatewithminSquawk: no, there's no any archive called xorg.con in this directory18:45
Squawkchocolatewithmin, xorg.log, in /var/log/18:46

chocolatewithminSquawk: ok, but it's a bug or not?18:54
tux__amenado-> ya it's always happening. Im fairly certain its because i had to do some tweaking of the video settings to get my card to work properly, but im not sure what i did to cause this.18:54

lindzeynHas anyone here had any luck with the Creative OpenSource XFi Drivers w/ Gutsy?18:56
Squawkchocolatewithmin, as I said, I have no clue about ubuntu bug reporting, since its your bug, you need to do it18:56
Squawkchocolatewithmin, dont worry about it, worst that happens is they tell you its not a bug and close it18:56
mehrabgraft: yes18:56
graftmehrab: and did it actually reinstall it?18:57
tux__amenado: alright thanks anyway18:57
hopelessso i chose to import my old fedora account, but now the installer is asking me "who are you?" i assume it wants to set up a new account. but i don't want a new account... i just want the imported one. is there a way to do that?18:57
mehrabgraft: yes18:57
chocolatewithminSquawk: ok, only a thing, if a report this, should I copy entire log?18:57

hopelessRoAkSoAx: WHAAAT. how do i enable root?!19:01
amenadohopeless yes, it will ask for what password you'd like for root19:01
GigamoHow do I run crossover from the commandline? I mean the configuration center, or launch an app with crossover from the cli. I don't use a DE so I cant select it from a menu.19:01
erUSUL!root | hopeless19:01
ubotuhopeless: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo19:01
erUSUL!sudo | hopeless19:01
ubotuhopeless: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information.19:01

Marbugwhats a nice program to extract audio cd's in mp3 ?19:19
MasterShrekreya276, i havent used it too much, but its still quite buggy afaik19:19

MasterShrekMarbug, soundjuicer19:19

reya276so I should not download Kubuntu then19:20
MasterShrekboris__, i dont think the radeon driver supports aiglx, im not 100% sure on that, but i would look into using the propreitary ati driver, which card do you have btw?19:20
MasterShrekMarbug, really? hmm...19:20
hopelessi'm installing ubuntu 7.10 to dual-boot with fedora, and it's time to decide whether or not to install the boot loader. since ubuntu detected my fedora user account, is it safe to assume that it will also give me the option to boot into fedora? or is it better to just boot into fedora and edit grub from there?19:20
Sam_SamI have HP 530 Laptop and when I put my headset the speakers still running sound, any body can help?19:20
mehrabnickrud: but terminal is open even after typing exit19:20

hopelessnote: i am really bad at messing with the boot loader, and want to avoid it if i can19:20
boris__MasterShrek: oh yes it does support aiglx. better than fglrx. i got Radeon 9550. i can take a pic of my AIGLX compiz fusion effects if you want19:21

danand_No1 - no. /usr is the place for apps. unfortunately it will contain all kde files etc. If you wanna try out different desktops why bother with a reinstall at all - just install the meta-package. I'm certain you can configure which desktop you wanna use at login through choosing session type at the login (gdm) screen19:42

ubotutux__: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo20:20
ArthurArchnixAlp-: Not true.20:20
ArthurArchnixAlp tux__ You just have to enable the root account first.20:21

PriceChildtux__, please don't use gay as a derogatory term in this channel.20:23
ArthurArchnixSorry tux__ I've done it once before and it created all kinds of problems for me. Debian uses that root/su/user setup though, if you really want to.20:23
stormze3PriceChild: A specific machine... maybe "client" wasn't the right term.20:23
prince_jammystux__: the answer to your question is go look elsewhere20:23
celi0ustux__: if you want a root shell use sudo -i20:24
ArthurArchnixAlp-: My mistake.20:24
grafthow does setting a root password create problems?20:24
tux__is UBUNTU gay?20:24
stormze3PriceChild: In other words, I want ssh to know based on the host I give it what port to use.20:24
tux__how do i enable root?20:24
komputesgraft: it opens up an attack vector20:24
prince_jammysbyebye20:24
graftkomputes: meaning you might crack it?20:24
Videngood call PriceChild :-D20:24
PriceChildstormze3, look up ~/.ssh/config20:24
graftkomputes: how is that different than cracking a user account with sudo privs?20:24
PriceChildstormze3, you can list hosts there20:24
gnomytux please don't use the word gay negatively as you have been it is offensive20:25
PriceChildgnomy, i've already told him that... and kickbanned him...20:25
prince_jammysi think he's fully aware of that20:25
komputesgraft: kind of, if root has no password, nobody can get in to root, like most attacks do, the only way to run command as root is sudo, or sudo -s to get a root shell20:25
komputesHow can I install firefox 2 in hardy?20:25
* _Oz_ shudders instinctively as he reads the words of pricechild20:25
stormze3thanks, PriceChild, I think that's exactly what I neeed. :)20:25
graftkomputes: that makes no sense... anyone can be root, you just set your uid to 020:25
Alp-i want to change the font-size in the browser-view of "listen". but how can i do that?20:25
ArthurArchnixgraft: It's just not supported. Everything in Ubuntu has been designed around the idea of no root account being activated. It's like a fundamental assumption. You can disagree with it if you like, but if you have a serious problem with that fundamental assumption you're probably not going to like Ubuntu all that much. Thus, my recommendation to install Debian for those who find it offensive or "gay", as the former participan20:25

danand_No1 - apt-get --purge remove ... will completely wipe whatever packages you supply as arguments off your system ie apt-get --purge remove kubuntu-desktop will erase all packages to do with the kubuntu desktop. apt-get install ubuntu-desktop will then install all packages associated with the ubuntu/gnome desktop. hopefully then you'd be able to reboot into a gnome desktop as if you had installed ubuntu(edubuntu/xubuntu... or whatever) from cd20:38

danand_No1 - real time kernel is supposed to react to interupt requests in near enough real time (ie fast) with a vanilla linux kernel you may have to wait a while for it to respond while its busy doing something else. has to do with the way the scheduler works i think. with a rt kernel the kernel is run on top of a scheduler - ie as a sub process of the scheduler. with vanilla kernel the scheduler is a subprocess of the kernel ie the kernel controls the scheduli20:52

Odd-rationaleNo1: You can try #vbox20:56
No1seamless works fine as long as I have at least one xp window open, if none are open the screen messes up horribly20:56
rysiek|plmage__: i.e. why the screen gets blanked/un-blanked, cat /proc/acpi/button/lid/*/state shows proper lid states, BUT acpid does *not* receive lid events20:56

danand_No1 - i've am familiar with vitualbox problems - i have them all the time :D20:56
No1heheheh20:57
mage__rysiek|pl: maybe closing the lid doesn't do an interrupt20:57
yao_ziyuanbecause i'm using xchat, a sucking program that doesn't even notifies me of for-me messages20:57

No1I'm not even sure what that is so I would think no :P20:58
ArthurArchnixpsyferre: That's just the first one I came across... there are many online. Search around a bit and I'm sure you'll find an even better one. Especially if you're willing to go down the paid support route.20:58
bullgard4rysiek|pl: I find it normal that the display gets blanked when you close the lid. And reappears when you reopen it. So what is your problem?20:58
Odd-rationaleNo1: To check. Go to Sys --> Pref --> Apperance and on the Visual Effects tab, check if None is selected20:59
No1I have reinstalled it god knws how many times, it works fine the first time, then it messes up and keeps messing up untill I reinstall it20:59
ArthurArchnixpsyferre: I don't know much about them... I just recall reading an article about them on digg a while back, which made me think to look for it.... so, you know, I'm not endorsing that link I gave you. ;)20:59
psyferreArthurArchnix:  Yeah, that's really the reason i turned to irc.  Googling gave me so many options that I was hoping to hear a "glowing recommendation" from someone in channel20:59
c0mp13371331337No1 - That would be all the effects, 3D desktop cube, REAL transparency, window/menu animations and fading, that sort of thing20:59
ArthurArchnixahah.. sorry.20:59
No1nothing is checked there20:59
rysiek|plbullgard4: the problem is that acpid does *not* get the lid events20:59
mage__rysiek|pl: http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/How_to_configure_acpid mentions shell scripts in /etc/acpi, try adding some debug output near the top, like have the script write to a log file21:00

mage__rysiek|pl: /etc/acpi/lid.sh supposedly gets run every time you cycle the screen, could tell it to write to the log file for you :)21:01
rysiek|plmage__: that will not work, as for those scripts to get run, acpid need to fire them up21:01
Flare183!lol21:01
PriceChildgnomy, there will be instructions from where you downloaded it, and probably inside too.21:01
ubotuPlease don't use "LOL" and "OMG" and so forth on a regular basis. This is IRC, not IM, and using those lines on their own is not required, and it is rather annoying to the rest of the people in the channel; thanks.21:01
* Flare183 says crap21:01
ArthurArchnix_Oz_: if it's just frozen, do a ps ax in a terminal, find the pid, then kill PID21:01
rysiek|plmage__: and acpi will fire them up when it gets an event21:01
gnomythe readme is suprisingly short21:01
rysiek|plmage__: which it doesn't get (as /var/log/acpid shows)21:01
PriceChildgnomy, I'd advise using apps packaged in the repositories though21:02
Odd-rationale_Oz_: Sounds like X hanged up a bit. Try doing ctrl+alt+f1 and then come back with ctrl+alt+f721:02
mage__how do you know its just not logging it?21:02
psyferreubota: wow, ebox sounds pretty nice... i banged my head against jabber for a while one day and didn't have much luck21:02
gnomypricechild it's not there21:02
rysiek|plmage__: so its like this: hardware -> ??? -> acpid -> scripts21:02
rysiek|plmage__: some events go all the way up the chain21:02
rysiek|pl(like powerbtn)21:02
AtomicSparkheh. sleep/hibernate put my laptop into a coma.21:02

gnomythank you pricechild21:03

EnvoyRisingi just installed hardy and it botched my graphics settings21:04
KoerHow can i manipulate where the windows i open appear ?21:05
bullgard4rysiek|pl: Ah. Now I understand your problem a bit better. -- The apparent discrepancy may be caused by the synchronous appearance of the button event and its consequence: a dark screen. I would try to resolve it by consulting your event log. Closing the lid button should reflect in the the event log.21:05

ArthurArchnixosfameron: I managed to get mine down to 12... good luck with 10 :P  Remember to defrag before and after each resize. Never resize to less than 65% of total size in one go (I seem to recall reading that Windows puts some disk information around the 50% mark.21:10
osfameronah, damn.  My isostick installation doesn't work :-(21:10

OrangeteaPriceChild do i need to format a hard drive ntfs to ext3? or I can leave it ntfs and it will do it by itself using wubi.exe23:18
LjLhola: as i said before, no.23:18
Dellbuntu5100My sound driver is a Sigmatel Audio High Def. Sound card.23:18
neverblueDellbuntu5100, use alsamixer to change the volume settings23:19

CorruptTerroristurgh23:19
holaLjL: sorry23:20
Dellbuntu5100no help23:20
PriceChildOrangetea, wubi doesn't touch your partitions... it installs ubuntu onto a file on your windows partition.23:20
CorruptTerroristOrangetea, from personal experience, only wubi 7.04 is likely to work. i knw from personal experience23:21

XorothalDaveEngland: maybe python-gtk223:25
PriceChildIntro5pect, uncheck the checkbox next to the cd at hte bottom23:25
leeping2007I think that the Ubuntu installation might be going wacky because of my hardware RAID23:25
Intro5pectno i mean it won't even install using the Alt CD23:26
Intro5pectit stops right after choosing keyboard layout23:26
PriceChildleeping2007, hardware raid should be invisible to the OS afaik?23:26
leeping2007(I don't think it's a motherboard fakeRAID.  I'm pretty certain it's an actual RAID card.)23:26
CorruptTerroristi never thought ubuntu would freeze at 99%23:26
Flare183CorruptTerrorist: i can't i didn't think23:26
leeping2007PriceChild, I think so too - that's why I'm confused.  The Ubuntu partitioner sees three hard drives (two of which are in the supposed RAID).  However, I think it's an actual hardware RAID because I can't find anything RAID-related in my BIOS that would point to a fakeRAID23:27
CorruptTerroristFlare183, what? that doesn't make sense to me23:27
Intro5pectI've tried some things i found on forums but didn't work , such as the nodma parameter23:27
PriceChildleeping2007, I don't think the raid problems are related to the ubuntu ones.23:27
Flare183CorruptTerrorist: My PC (on Ubuntu) doesn't freeze when the CPU is at 100%23:27
leeping2007PriceChild, ok, thanks. :) I installed LILO instead of GRUB and I dropped to initramfs .. how do I troubleshoot if there isn't any dmesg command?23:28

PriceChildCorruptTerrorist, what bug? can you give us a bug url for launchpad?23:33
leeping2007PriceChild, that's not quite what I meant. I mean, the fs could be mounting, it might just be extremely slow .. if it really is an error, maybe you've seen it somewhere?23:33
daedran2diy: as much as I advocate the use of manpages, loadkeys has lost me23:33
