| ompaul | cjones_, what was that for? | 00:03 |
| Kanuha | need advice, I have a hp pavilion laptop with vista. I need to keep vista due to work programs, but I want to add ubuntu or kubuntu. If I load ubuntu, will grub be the boot loader like on my desktop with xp, or will I have to set it up through vista? | 00:03 |
| Scunizi | aghachi, how bout just running nvidia-settings all by itself? | 00:03 |
| * beautifulsnow is thinking of reinstalling ubuntu like this: ubuntu-server, then gnome-core + kde core, + apps as needed by me... does this sound like a good idea? | 00:03 | |
| Pelo | Jorge_,I can give you a copy of my /boot/grub/menu.lst and you can copy/edit the lines you need for ubuntu how is that ? | 00:03 |
| DIL | is it safe to say that if xp will run on a box so will ubuntu? | 00:03 |
| Slart | x3on: one was created by an south african millionaire.. the other not =) | 00:03 |
| Scunizi | Kanuha, I think grub | 00:03 |
| aghachi | scunizi: what do u mean/how | 00:03 |
| Tho1 | DIL - yes | 00:03 |
| DIL | ty | 00:03 |

| aghachi | scunizi: ? im completly n00b to this command stuff and ubuntu i dont get waht u mean | 00:04 |
| Slart | x3on: I think they are both based on debian.. both use apt...I'm not sure what the differences are.. but since we get many mint users here I guess they have somewhat less community support | 00:04 |
| Scunizi | aghachi, what are you trying to change with nvidia-settings? | 00:04 |
| Jorge_ | Pelo, if you could point me in the right direction? | 00:04 |

| Zasch | Hello. Is it possible to install Windows on a different partition after Ubuntu has been installed? | 00:06 |
| === Yuji1 is now known as Yuji1_Saeki | ||
| Pelo | Jorge_, probably because stage one of grub is still pointing to the menu.lst in your pclos partition | 00:06 |
| Yuji1_Saeki | Ah yes, much better. | 00:06 |
| amenado | Zasch-> yes | 00:06 |

| Yuji1_Saeki-[TS2 | Gah, too long. | 00:07 |
| Jorge_ | Pelo, Ubuntu does not overwrite that? | 00:07 |
| Pelo | Jorge_, then you might just want toget the supergrub cd and point stageone to the /boot/grub/menu.lst file in your ubuntu partiton | 00:07 |
| beautifulsnow | ompaul: About that minimal CD: since I am handpicking which apps to install, won't I be at risk that some hardware doesnt work out of the box? (my Dell Latitude D820 works 100% out of the box with a full Ubuntu install) | 00:07 |
| === Yuji1_Saeki-[TS2 is now known as Yuji1_Saeki | ||
| Yuji1_Saeki | It works I guess. | 00:07 |
| brobostigon | Yuji1: i have a zd1211rw based usb wifi, and everythings work properly for me, i didint have to change anything, it just worked. | 00:07 |

| cjones_ | i am looking for a program that will let me do screen capture video | 00:07 |
| binaries-AP1 | zasch: try the other way around for driver recognition issues | 00:07 |
| Yuji1_Saeki | brobostigon I installed mine (by just plugging it up) but it showed up as an eth!!! | 00:07 |
| icesword | !apt-spy | 00:07 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about apt-spy - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 00:07 |

| Yuji1_Saeki | Eth2 lol | 00:07 |
| Marbug | thx | 00:07 |
| Zasch | binaries-AP1: What do you mean "driver recognition issues"? | 00:08 |
| Yuji1_Saeki | BESIDES...trying to get aircrack going so I can audit my environment. | 00:08 |
| Scunizi | aghachi, ah.. you're dual monitoring.. ubuntu now uses xRANDr or something similar. xinerama can be loaded but nvidia-settings I don't think will change your resolution. You have to hand configure xorg.conf for xinerama to work. It's a function of X not your video driver necessarily | 00:08 |
| DIL | cjones_: wm recorder? | 00:08 |
| ompaul | beautifulsnow, well now if that is a risk factor in your book then I would suggest grabbing more than one CD for the install fest that you are about to entertains | 00:08 |
| Yuji1_Saeki | (Believe it or not, a genuine cause!) | 00:08 |
| cjones_ | dil can i apt get it ? | 00:08 |
| DIL | cjones_: no no sry | 00:08 |
| Yuji1_Saeki | I host an apartment wifi spot, yeah. | 00:08 |
| Jorge_ | Pelo...well, I'm at a loss here.....pclos just keeps starting up | 00:08 |
| Pelo | Jorge_, in anycase , here is a paste of my own menu.lst file, just find the menu.lst file in your pclos partiton and add the ubuntu menu entries to it, change the (hd#,#) lines in the lines you copy to relfect the partitons ubuntu is isntalled in | 00:08 |
| cjones_ | dil is it gnu ? | 00:08 |
| brobostigon | yuji1: mines zd1211rw based too, and it just worked straight out, | 00:09 |
| ere4si | beautifulsnow, it is the kernel that detects hardware and that is the same - minimal or full | 00:09 |
| DIL | cjones_: thinking of something else | 00:09 |
| Pelo | Jorge_, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/57895/ | 00:09 |
| DIL | cjones_: no | 00:09 |
| Scunizi | aghachi, check out http://www.lockergnome.com/linux/2007/06/18/dual-monitors-with-ubuntu/ | 00:09 |
| Yuji1_Saeki | brobostigon Mine too, but it shows up as an ETH. I disabled roaming and closed properties and now it shows wireless configs even though it is an eth (as it says!) | 00:09 |
| Jorge_ | Pelo, I'm just not sure what to do with the information you've given me....how do I edit the file? | 00:09 |
| glatek | ELo | 00:09 |
| Jorge_ | Pelo, and what file | 00:09 |
| Jorge_ | Pelo, and where? | 00:10 |
| Kamusq_ | can i enable inotify in a compiled kernel without compile it again? i've made a f#### mistake and hal doesn't starts | 00:10 |
| Zasch | The problem that I am having is that, when I put in my XP CD, it doesn't recognise that my harddrive already has partitions :) It just says "C: Unknown Partition", when I have a 30GB partition just waiting for XP :( | 00:10 |
| Pelo | Jorge_, just open it with a text editor in pclos, not sure wht you have in there nano maybe, so try sudo nano /boot/grub/menu.lst | 00:10 |
| brobostigon | yuji1: mines shows as eth1, eth0 is my built in nic, | 00:10 |
| Scunizi | Zasch, is that partition formatted? | 00:10 |
| Marbug | Slart, it seems the fonds arn't added to firefox :o | 00:10 |
| Yuji1_Saeki | brobo: Yes but it should be wlan0 or wlan1 | 00:10 |
| Yuji1_Saeki | Eh, anyways... | 00:10 |
| Jorge_ | pelo, i'm in PCLinuxOS | 00:10 |
| Zasch | Scunizi: Yes, it is. The XP installer lists my whole hard drive as 1 unknown partition | 00:11 |
| Yuji1_Saeki | So say I got that working. How would I use the patch from aircrack-ng on it? | 00:11 |
| Yuji1_Saeki | To enable monitoring mode. | 00:11 |
| Jorge_ | Pelo, not sure where to find it | 00:11 |
| Pelo | Jorge_, open a terminal windows , type locate menu.lst | 00:11 |
| brobostigon | yuji1: and i configure mine permenently in /etc/network/interfaces | 00:11 |
| Yuji1_Saeki | I'm new to Ubuntu so yeah. | 00:11 |
| Scunizi | Zasch, does it have anything else on it? like ubuntu? | 00:11 |
| Zasch | Scunizi: The 30GB partition doesn't, no | 00:11 |
| Pelo | Yuji1_Saeki, please stop using the enter key for punctuation , it scrolls the channel up needlessly | 00:11 |
| Jorge_ | pelo,done | 00:11 |
| binaries-AP1 | Zasch: for this reason create a windows partition ( with gparted ) and install it there first, update the system, and then only then once you have a nice driver compilation on your back up hd , install unix | 00:12 |
| Pelo | Jorge_, you have the path to menu.lst in there ? | 00:12 |
| Yuji1_Saeki | ??? I'm not. | 00:12 |
| Scunizi | Zasch, by chance did you format it with ext3 when you created it? | 00:12 |
| d0s4gw | I installed a SATA drive last night, got it all set up so it works, but it doesn't mount automatically at boot. How can I (1) mount it at boot and (2) allow all users read/write access? | 00:12 |
| Jorge_ | pelo, yes | 00:12 |
| Yuji1_Saeki | ...Sorry that I type faster than people send between my messages. I'll slow down then? | 00:12 |
| Zasch | Scunizi: No, I formatted it with NTFS | 00:12 |
| aghachi | scunizi: thanx ill check itout | 00:12 |
| Pelo | Jorge_, ok now type sudo nano /path/menu.lst , whee path is the path to the menu.lst file you just found in locate | 00:12 |
| amenado | Yuji1_Saeki-> no, just put your thoughts in longer sentences | 00:12 |
| Yuji1_Saeki | I do not understand. *puzzled* Do you mean try to keep my sentences NOT broken up? Like, type them all in one 'enter'? | 00:13 |
| Scunizi | Zasch, this could be one of the typical window installation problems after Ubuntu install. Windows likes to be the first thing installed and at the beginning of the drive.. | 00:13 |
| prettyricky | hey guys i have had Ubuntu 7.10 for a while now and well all of a sudden I have no sound, can someone direct me to solving this issue | 00:13 |
| Pelo | Yuji1_Saeki, yes | 00:13 |
| amenado | Yuji1_Saeki-> yes it would be nicer | 00:13 |
| Jorge_ | Pelo, remember I'm in pclos | 00:13 |
| docmur | does anyone have a problem using libncurses5-dev on Gutsy with C++ | 00:13 |
| pak | cant figure out how to use the comfiz install | 00:13 |
| Pelo | Jorge_, what is the default text editor for pclos ? | 00:14 |
| Yuji1_Saeki | Pelo: amenado: Alright. My apologies. I am new to IRC in general. | 00:14 |
| Jorge_ | pelo, sec | 00:14 |
| Scunizi | Zasch, did you format the drive using ubuntu? or windows? | 00:14 |
| edju | on a remove of alsa-base, ubuntu-minimal is also removed. on an install of ubuntu-minimal, alsa-base is also installed. how to get rid of alsa-base and keep ubuntu-minimal? | 00:14 |
| Zasch | Scunizi: I formatted the drive using a program called "gparted" | 00:14 |
| Pelo | Yuji1_Saeki, we get that , but this is a support channel with over 1000 ppl in it , it is helpfull for everyone to be brief | 00:14 |
| Jorge_ | pelo, ok, there | 00:15 |
| Pelo | Jorge_, so what is the default text editor in pclos ? | 00:15 |
| DIL | windows = fat32 or ntfs not ext 2 or 3 | 00:15 |
| Pelo | DIL, ntfs | 00:15 |
| Jorge_ | I am in Nano | 00:15 |
| Yuji1_Saeki | Pelo: Alright then. Perhaps you can help me. Why would my wireless USB show up as an ETH instead of WLAN? | 00:15 |
| soldats | edju: IIRC there may be a way of *only* removing the suggested package you tell it to via apt-get | 00:15 |
| Scunizi | Zasch, you might consider deleting that partition again and recreating it as a bootable drive but don't format it. If it forces you to format it use vfat or fat32. When installing windows, windows will allow you to reformat the drive to ntfs | 00:15 |
| Pelo | Jorge_, do you have menu.lst opened ? | 00:15 |
| Jorge_ | pelo yes | 00:16 |
| CorruptTerrorist | whats a good ftp server for ubuntu + apache2? | 00:16 |

| Jorge_ | I have an HP12lln that I want Ubuntu on. It has multiple harddrives on it and operating systems | 00:25 |
| usser | CorruptTerrorist: oh yea webmin is awesome | 00:25 |
| Jorge_ | I have windows xp | 00:25 |
| nickrud | !webmin | 00:25 |
| ubotu | webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. See !ebox instead. | 00:25 |
| Jorge_ | and pclos | 00:25 |
| amenado | reportingsjr-> can you kind of clarify that? bash on boot? at what point to you want access to bash? | 00:25 |
| [T]Rex | hi | 00:26 |
| Jorge_ | I installed Ubuntu onto one of my hard drives, but it won't start | 00:26 |
| Yuji1_Saeki | amenado: What can I use to learn C ad write in it in Ubuntu? (7.10) And a good firewall you recommend? IPTable and Chains is a little too sensitive I think to mess with. | 00:26 |
| Jorge_ | It is ignored by the bootloader | 00:26 |
| reportingsjr | amenado, I want to run the command to switch the keyboard layout to dvorak when the computer starts up. | 00:26 |
| amenado | Jorge_-> which os do you have as default to boot? | 00:26 |
| Jorge_ | plclinuxos | 00:26 |
| Jorge_ | amenado pclinuxos | 00:26 |
| Yuji1_Saeki | reportingsjr: Try the setup for keyboard in System > Preferences > keyboard. | 00:27 |
| Scunizi | Thanks nickrud.. I didn't know that.. did you catch that CorruptTerrorist ? | 00:27 |
| djwonk | i'd like to rerun the initial postfix setup program again (provided this is a good idea)... how do I? | 00:27 |
| icesword | reportingsjr, sorry,it is in /etc/rc.d | 00:27 |
| amenado | Yuji1_Saeki-> iptables is pretty much the only firewall i know..regarding learning C...there are plenty you can find via google | 00:27 |
| reportingsjr | Yuji1_Saeki, didn't wopk ;) | 00:27 |
| djwonk | 'sudo aptitude install postfix' ran it the first time | 00:27 |
| teqsun | I am dualbooting winxp and ubuntu, would it be possible to run a virtual machine through ubuntu of the winxp? | 00:27 |
| reportingsjr | icesword, ok, thanks! | 00:27 |
| amenado | Yuji1_Saeki-> for editing, vim or emacs or even pine or nano | 00:27 |

| icesword | teqsun, what you mean,what through ubuntuof xp | 00:28 |
| Jorge_ | amendao....no sense trying????????????? | 00:28 |
| Yuji1_Saeki | amenado: Eh? Let's talk Windows and I can understand. >.<; Me too dumb...look what MicroCrap has done to me, nyu! | 00:28 |
| hischild | i need yet another pointer ... how can i set up wireless from command line only? | 00:28 |
| icesword | reportingsjr, in your case,i think it is rc.local | 00:28 |
| brobostigon | Yuji1_Saeki: for linux documenation, linux documentation project(LDP) are the most comprehensive | 00:28 |
| Some_Person | If I start a 2nd Xserver, how do I easily stop it from commandline? | 00:28 |
| teqsun | If i run the VMware through ubuntu can i run xp as a virtual machine (the one I already have installed) | 00:28 |
| amenado | Yuji1_Saeki-> not too bad, you are still employable, many facilities uses windows | 00:28 |
| === lain_ is now known as LainIwakura | ||
| Scunizi | teqsun, there are posts on how to do that but you may 1> mess up your windows install 2> have to re-verify your license every time you switch back and forth.. | 00:29 |
| Yuji1_Saeki | amenado: I live off SSI. My mother screwed my life and education up. brobostigon: Where can I find this documentation? | 00:29 |
| hischild | teqsun, yes, yet unrecommended due to a lot of driver changes ... | 00:29 |
| amenado | Jorge_-> pclinuxos is the default bootable os? | 00:29 |
| j_ | 7.10 version and nvidia video card 7600 gt . and i went to SYSTEM > PREF > REST but can't see to get Tv OUT or Svideo detect .... | 00:29 |
| icesword | teqsun, sure,you can,if your mem is enough | 00:29 |
| DIL | teqsun: yes, vmware and on the vm site there are pre built ubuntu virtual machines | 00:29 |
| teqsun | I have 4gb of memory | 00:29 |
| Jorge_ | amenado, yes, and win xp | 00:29 |
| teqsun | Wait I am running Ubuntu right now but I want to run a Virtual machine of XP | 00:29 |
| djwonk | #postfix suggested that I use "dpkg-reconfigure postfix" | 00:29 |
| teqsun | The virtual machine of xp would be from my already installed xp on my ntfs partition | 00:30 |
| amenado | Jorge_-> when you installed ubuntu, did you select to installl grub? | 00:30 |
| Jorge_ | amenado, yes | 00:30 |
| icesword | teqsun, but you know,for now you want to run you need to install xp in vm | 00:30 |
| solexious1 | [Q] What do I use to setup wifi on ubuntu server? *cant find server info on previous link | 00:30 |
| Yuji1_Saeki | amenado: I've got notebooks full of signatures and comments from those who I have helped with their PCs in life. I'm so loved. People come from three different towns around to see me. (I'm smarter than I let on for windows, but I'm not God) :D | 00:30 |
| brobostigon | Yuji1_Saeki: i think its ldp.org, but google LDP to be sure | 00:30 |
| sveakex | ^^ | 00:30 |
| Scunizi | teqsun, think of what you are trying to accomplish. If you want access to your games in windows but be able to play them while in Ubuntu.. forget about 99.9% of them. | 00:30 |
| teqsun | I dont want to install XP through VM I was wondering if I could take a preinstalled (already existing) installation of XP and use it as a VM through ubuntu | 00:30 |
| Some_Person | If I start a 2nd Xserver, how do I easily stop it from commandline? | 00:31 |
| DIL | teqsun: yes, just a fyi you should be able to use vmplayer and create a vm with xp - i would use the the download from vwware site though | 00:31 |
| nickrud | Yuji1_Saeki: tldp.org | 00:31 |
| icesword | teqsun, i think you cannot,for now yeah,you cannot | 00:31 |
| Yuji1_Saeki | LDP.Org turned out to be some terrorist signup site. Jk. | 00:31 |
| amenado | Jorge_-> do you get a grub menu when you boot? | 00:31 |
| Darkmystere | Yea with VMWare Workstation.. | 00:31 |
| neeto | I need to map my mouse forward/back buttons, and I have been successful getting the commands working by using btnx, however, before btnx, the back/forward buttons, had arbitrarily been assigned to the middle click and the right click functions (Even though they are not the same buttons) so now my browser will go back, but it will also open up a right click menu. How can I disable the... | 00:31 |
| brobostigon | tldp.org | 00:31 |
| neeto | ...default functions of these buttons and replace them with JUST the btnx mappings? | 00:31 |
| amenado | am detecting a troll | 00:31 |
| Darkmystere | Err, my internet in ubuntu doesnt work but if i boot into backtrack it works.. | 00:31 |
| Yuji1_Saeki | NickRud: Thank you nickrud: | 00:31 |
| icesword | teqsun, also check www.vmware.com www.virtualbox.org | 00:31 |
| teqsun | I would just like to access windows, I dualboot but when I reboot in console, it loads grub and I have no idea how to access grub with ssh and change the boot order | 00:31 |
| Scunizi | teqsun, VMWare has a free app that will create a VM out of your windows install. Then just copy the files to Ubuntu and run them via VMWare. Still you'll end up with license verification issues. | 00:31 |
| teqsun | thank yuo | 00:31 |
| Jorge_ | amenado, I get a menu to choose between pclos and winxp | 00:31 |
| teqsun | I dont have verification :) | 00:32 |
| teqsun | its a copy through school | 00:32 |
| amenado | Jorge_-> is that a grub menu by chance? | 00:32 |
| teqsun | if I need to I can spend another $10 on another copy | 00:32 |
| Jorge_ | grub | 00:32 |

| * __mikem wonders why anyone would need to dual boot two linux distros | 00:32 | |
| amenado | Jorge_-> do you know where that menu.lst resides? ie which partition? | 00:32 |
| Yuji1_Saeki | ubotu: Darn, jk. | 00:33 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about darn, jk. - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 00:33 |

| amenado | Jorge_-> do you have a liveCD from ubuntu you can use? | 00:33 |
| teqsun | do I have to use nano or can I use vi | 00:33 |
| icesword | k | 00:33 |
| icesword | ok | 00:34 |
| Jorge_ | amenado, yes | 00:34 |
| amenado | teqsun-> either one is okay | 00:34 |
| nickrud | teqsun: whatever editor you like, even emacs | 00:34 |
| icesword | teqsun, if you get used to it | 00:34 |
| neeto | 8| | 00:34 |
| teqsun | I am used to it :90 | 00:34 |
| neeto | 8O | 00:34 |
| amenado | Jorge_-> then boot from that and find on each partition, you may have to mount it, where that menu.lst is | 00:34 |
| teqsun | If I had my way, I would use VI for everything. | 00:34 |
| Yuji1_Saeki | amenado: What do you think a casual tech job for a walk in on a PC should cost? You know, tweaking, anti-viral removal, etc. The whole works. | 00:34 |

| teqsun | isnt vim the one where the arrow keys work/ | 00:35 |
| amenado | Jorge_-> it will get simpler if you remember where you have put stuff..like where did you install grub to? | 00:35 |
| teqsun | I know in vi if I use the arrow keys without being in insert mode, it comes up with crazy charactors | 00:35 |
| bluefoxx | !tell me about webcams | 00:35 |
| Yuji1_Saeki | Amenado: Ok. Ubotu: ... Scunizi: They are over-priced. NickRud: ??? | 00:35 |
| amenado | Jorge_-> but if you forget, we are both guessing | 00:36 |
| mneptok | teqsun: you'll want to install the "vim-full" package | 00:36 |
| icesword | bluefoxx, this is not #debian | 00:36 |
| nickrud | Yuji1_Saeki: this is a support channel, rather than general talk. | 00:36 |

| ejusten | And now I cant find the windows partition | 00:36 |
| teqsun | well I'll be dipped | 00:36 |
| Jorge_ | amenado....it's not standard? | 00:36 |
| icesword | !webcams > bluefoxx | 00:36 |
| Scunizi | Yuji1_Saeki, of course.. I charge $60 hr.. that's cheap for the headache.. | 00:36 |
| bluefoxx | icesword: mybad, lol | 00:36 |
| teqsun | I also cannot find my windows partition in the grub file | 00:36 |
| Yuji1_Saeki | Fine support questions it is. Is there a way I can customize xchat-gnome to minimize to the notification area. | 00:36 |

| jetscreamer | try something more secure | 00:37 |
| nickrud | !tell icesword about ubotu (has always worked ;) | 00:37 |
| Yuji1_Saeki | Scunizi: I've been doing free for years. My support question, heh, is whether I should charge. That passes right? IF not I'll be more serious, sorry. | 00:37 |
| ompaul | !wep | 00:37 |
| ubotu | WEP is totally insecure, don't use it, the full Wireless Documentation for Ubuntu can be found at: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 00:37 |

| hischild | Yuji1_Saeki, i'm aware of that, yet my router doesn't support wpa | 00:38 |
| mneptok | Yuji1_Saeki / Scunizi: this is your last warning about offtopic discussions in #ubuntu. | 00:38 |
| ejusten | should be fairly easy if I knew what I was doing | 00:38 |
| Scunizi | Yuji1_Saeki, nickrud is right .. this type of thing is better in #ubuntu-offtopic or a PM | 00:38 |
| Jorge_ | amenado...ok, I trust you, what exactly do I do Now? | 00:38 |
| Yuji1_Saeki | hischild what does your router support? | 00:38 |
| hischild | Yuji1_Saeki, only wep :( | 00:38 |
| amenado | Jorge_-> boot from that liveCD and find on each partition, you may have to mount each one, where that menu.lst is | 00:38 |
| solexious1 | [Q] What do I use to setup wifi on ubuntu server? *cant find server info on previous link | 00:38 |

| mneptok | hischild: can you filter connections by MAC address? | 00:38 |
| Scunizi | mneptok, in case you missed it see below your last post.. .25 seconds from your post.. | 00:39 |
| hischild | mneptok, ofcourse (i'm doin that already ... ) | 00:39 |
| Yuji1_Saeki | Then HiSchild I'm sorry but I know not where to help then. | 00:39 |
| hischild | Yuji1_Saeki, np ... i'm not entirely stupid to just stay with only wep and do nothing ... it does support mac filtering which is enabled :-) | 00:39 |
| alexman | how do i figure out my version of ubuntu? | 00:39 |
| mneptok | hischild: what flavor of router is it? | 00:39 |

| mneptok | hischild: you should see if router firmware updates provide WPA(2) functionality | 00:40 |
| hischild | mneptok, no wait! i've been misreading ... it supports wpa-psk <3 | 00:41 |
| mneptok | hischild: then there ya go | 00:41 |

| hischild | mneptok, but ... any chance you could gimme a hand on getting wlan on my server up? i know it's far from perfect, but it's better then having a wire running through my room | 00:41 |
| Jorge_ | amenado....yes | 00:41 |
| amenado | solexious1-> do you have a wireless nic card? | 00:41 |
| solexious1 | ? | 00:42 |

| lain_ | Hello, I just installed irssi | 00:43 |
| Yuji1_Saeki | ...? | 00:43 |
| lain_ | I downloaded a theme file, but I don't know where irssi was installed | 00:43 |
| flaccid | here is a good question. looks like my grub is fine, but my kernel images are corrupted. how can i reinstall those from say a livecd ? | 00:43 |
| theLichKing | mneptok, uh? | 00:43 |
| lain_ | Which folder is irssi installed in by default? | 00:43 |
| mneptok | theLichKing: you're here. you're speaking. so what is this ban? | 00:43 |
| hakerx | i was wondering does it's posible to separet xp and ubuntu on each partition ? | 00:44 |
| amenado | Jorge_-> you see the list of partitions you have? /dev/hda1 ? /dev/hda2 ? what are the names? | 00:44 |
| Scunizi | Yuji1_Saeki, sure that's an ok question.. unfurtunatly I don't do wireless and don't know the answer.. If the usb dongle is capable of WPA2 the short answer is ... probably. | 00:44 |
| theLichKing | mneptok, my other ip got banned | 00:44 |
| ere4si | lain_, normally in /usr/bin or /usr/sbin | 00:44 |
| mkz | quick question: is there a cli param for tar to change compression level when using tar to create a bz2 file? | 00:44 |
| mneptok | theLichKing: today? | 00:44 |
| hakerx | i was wondering does it's posible to separet xp and ubuntu on each partition ??? | 00:44 |
| Jorge_ | amenado, you know what? I shall wait for the answer | 00:45 |
| theLichKing | mneptok, no, about a month ago | 00:45 |
| amenado | Jorge_-> you see the list of partitions you have? /dev/hda1 ? /dev/hda2 ? what are the names? | 00:45 |
| Yuji1_Saeki | Scunizi: Apparently there is a.Patch from aircrack-ng that you apply to the drivers to enable it. (Genuine purpose!!!) | 00:45 |
| amenado | Jorge_-> wait for the answer from whom? | 00:45 |
| hakerx | i got all ready 2 partions :D | 00:45 |
| hakerx | time to make 3 one :) | 00:45 |
| Yuji1_Saeki | I supply the apartment wifi for everyone and want to find out a general rough time that it takes for my wpa2 to be you know...So that I can write a VB.net on xp to autorun every so often and change the key. | 00:46 |

| hakerx | i will make a Dual Boot :) | 00:53 |

| zcat[1] | dev1n: some drives have trouble reading the disk if you burned it fast (generally 16x can be read by anything) .. and some BIOSes have issues with things like ACPI so there are options to turn it off.. the boot screen will give you some likely hints.. | 01:12 |

| Xdange1 | hey guys... i'm using Ubuntu 7.10..i can get sound with my headphones but not with my laptop speakers. What could have gone wrong?? | 01:13 |
| pyrak | prettyricky, because then you can access the volume that you boot from more safely | 01:13 |
| speeddemon8803 | you can always try xubuntu if your pc is so stubborn that even the alternative cd isnt working. | 01:14 |
| flaccid | fyrstorm: make sure there are no references in /etc/network/interfaces on that interface then restart both networkmanager and the frontend | 01:14 |

| Kanuha | trying to get my wireless on my laptop working, but need the build-essentials package for hardy. anyone have a url for it? | 01:44 |
| Starman | speed:.........have you considered rebooting? | 01:44 |
| Starman | just a guess | 01:44 |
| speeddemon8803 | sudo aptitude install buld-essentials kanuha, type that in terminal | 01:44 |
| Kanuha | speeddemon8803, thx, but don't have network yet | 01:45 |
| flaccid | Kanuha: its in the repos | 01:45 |
| flaccid | !info build-essentials | 01:45 |
| ubotu | Package build-essentials does not exist in gutsy | 01:45 |
| dev1n | is booting an alternate CD going to allow me to run linux live, without installing? | 01:45 |
| flaccid | oh maybe not | 01:45 |
| dev1n | because that's what I want to do...I don't want to install now. | 01:45 |
| speeddemon8803 | oh, well, thats not cool | 01:45 |
| speeddemon8803 | flaccid, it is | 01:45 |
| speeddemon8803 | just not in the main ones :) | 01:45 |
| flaccid | dev1n: i think alternate is text only not live, but i could be wrong | 01:45 |
| flaccid | oh dang | 01:46 |
| speeddemon8803 | your right flaccid | 01:46 |
| speeddemon8803 | alternate is text only | 01:46 |
| dev1n | oh, that's no good. | 01:46 |
| Kanuha | should be a deb package available somewhere | 01:46 |
| puff | Hi guys. A friend wants to experiment with linux, with linux acting as the access point. | 01:46 |
| dev1n | perhaps Ubuntu is the wrong choice...is there another live CD option that's more likely to work with my hardware? | 01:47 |
| cjones | how do you convert a Ogg Theora video to mpeg | 01:47 |
| DIL | dev1n: try knoppix | 01:47 |
| dev1n | ok | 01:47 |
| Dr_willis | dev1n, thers 100's of live cds out there. :) depends on what you wabnt. Slax is nice as is knoppix | 01:47 |
| flaccid | dev1n: did you try the safe graphic mode option on normal livecd ? | 01:47 |
| puff | He wants to set up a freestanding hotspot (no internet connection at his house) and experiment wtih home automation devices that would communicate via wifi to a management program running on the linux box. | 01:47 |
| Tu13es | I want to install metacity from svn so I can use AWN, can anyone help me? | 01:47 |
| amenado | Kanuha-> just do a sudo dpkg -d install packagename | 01:47 |
| speeddemon8803 | dev1n, ubuntu is in constant development, so sometimes there isnt always a fix, but surely there is one coming up eventually :) | 01:47 |
| Scunizi | dev1n, the alternate cd is text based only .. get the live cd to run from the cd | 01:48 |
| soreau | Good day to all | 01:48 |
| dev1n | ok, I give up on Ubuntu | 01:48 |
| Kanuha | amenado, is it available on the cd? | 01:48 |
| dev1n | is there #knoppix? | 01:48 |
| soreau | I need help setting up LVM to RAID to HD's for software raid | 01:48 |
| puff | So he'd have to set up a dhcp server, what else would he install to have the linux box act as the router? | 01:48 |
| DIL | dev1n: no no what if it is your hardware? | 01:48 |
| Dr_willis | dev1n, i have good luck with INSTALLING ubuntu with the altnerantive cd. even if the live cd has issues. | 01:48 |
| amenado | Kanuha-> dont know, have not searched the cdrom | 01:48 |
| soreau | dev1n: Ubuntu is the best | 01:48 |
| Dr_willis | The Ubuntu Live cd - is rather... basic in ways. | 01:49 |
| dev1n | ok, if UBUNTU is the best, then i should be able to get it to boot | 01:49 |

| amenado | puff no need to install anything to make an ubuntu box a router | 01:50 |
| Dr_willis | dev1n, i lot can depend ont he specific hardware and your specific issues. Testing with Other live cd's can give some ideas as to what the proiblems are. | 01:50 |
| soreau | I am installing on an alternate live cd and need help setting up software RAID and LVM | 01:50 |

| Scunizi | FFEMTcJ, evolution has an exchange plugin | 01:51 |
| speeddemon8803 | !exchange | 01:51 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about exchange - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 01:51 |

| soreau | I just need guidance | 01:51 |
| dev1n | depending on which boot option i try. | 01:51 |
| j_ | amenado so its sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 01:52 |
| ere4si | j_, good start - in terminal sudo cp -v /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 01:52 |
| SimplySeth | soreau: okay .. guidance on ..... ? | 01:52 |
| hischild | dev1n, ok. have you been told to boot it verbosely by removing the quiet and splash option on the kernel line? | 01:52 |
| Dr_willis | hp, Ive seen such messages at boot. when a module is checking for a known bios bug with specific bios's - Its just a infomational message i belive. | 01:52 |
| amenado | j_-> affirmative | 01:52 |
| dev1n | yes, but I don't know how to do that | 01:52 |
| soreau | Good evening. I am installing on an alternate live cd right now and need help setting up software RAID and LVM | 01:52 |
| j_ | amenado wil this do ere4si | 01:52 |
| ere4si | k | 01:52 |

| dev1n | hischild: if I hit F6 i get boot options...i can edit that line | 01:52 |
| hp | Dr_willis: however when i tried to install 7.04, it keeps hanging. i keep getting the black screen | 01:52 |
| hischild | dev1n, ok. Once you get into the screen with the ubuntu logo and the options, hit f6. On the end of the line you'll see the options splash and quiet. | 01:52 |
| hischild | remove those | 01:53 |
| Tu13es | anyone using AWN with Metacity? | 01:53 |

| SimplySeth | soreau: so what happens .. if you just try to partition it ? | 01:53 |
| Scunizi | Tu13es, I don't think you can without compiz | 01:53 |
| Dr_willis | hp, that may or may not be related to that 'bios bug' message. - Try installing with the alternative cd? | 01:53 |
| soreau | Hello! I am installing on an alternate live cd right now and need help setting up software RAID and LVM. I need help partitioning the two disks to be seen as one in ubuntu. | 01:53 |
| Dr_willis | Hello Bossmanbeta | 01:53 |
| amenado | solexious-> which ubuntu version do you have? | 01:53 |
| Tu13es | Scunizi: you can if you use the version that has compositing | 01:53 |
| ere4si | !raid | soreau | 01:54 |
| ubotu | soreau: Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RaidConfigurationHowto and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO - For software RAID, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FakeRaidHowto | 01:54 |
| Scunizi | Tu13es, nice.. didn' t know | 01:54 |
| soreau | SimplySeth: I want to know what i should select at the partitioner | 01:54 |
| hp | Dr_willis: i have an alternative cd for 7.10. it doesn't run either | 01:54 |
| Dr_willis | soreau, have you checked the install docs/guides at the ubuntu web site yet? Ive never used those features. | 01:54 |
| dev1n | hischild: ok, let me try that again | 01:54 |
| Tu13es | Scunizi: but I can't use compiz with this tablet :P | 01:54 |
| soreau | ere4si: right on | 01:54 |
| hp | Dr_willis: it keeps freezing up on me | 01:54 |
| ere4si | k | 01:54 |
| Dr_willis | hp, so the instaler works, or dosent work? where does it freeze at? | 01:54 |
| hischild | dev1n, alright. | 01:54 |
| SimplySeth | soreau: manual if you don't want to use the whole disk or guided if you do | 01:54 |
| dev1n | hischild: t=casper initrd=/casper/initrd.gz | 01:54 |
| flaccid | bbl | 01:54 |
| SimplySeth | soreau: probably "Manual" since you are using two disks | 01:54 |
| soreau | SimplySeth: ere4si hit up ubotu for the links xD | 01:54 |
| dev1n | hischild: is that right? | 01:54 |
| dev1n | hischild: that's what it will look like if i backspace a bit | 01:55 |
| ere4si | !raid | 01:55 |
| ubotu | Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RaidConfigurationHowto and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO - For software RAID, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FakeRaidHowto | 01:55 |
| hp | Dr_willis: checking for Cd drive, or disc. it freezes at 25%, 69% and 75%. each time i had to turn off the machine, after restarting it moves up a bit on the percentage bar | 01:55 |
| hischild | dev1n, if you only removed the quiet and plash, then that's correct | 01:55 |
| blockcipher | What format should I put my external drive in .. so ubuntu and windows xp can read it? Thanks. Would Fat32 to okay? | 01:55 |
| Starman | thanks ubotu | 01:55 |
| dev1n | hischild: there are two dashes after the quiet and the splash...remove those too? | 01:55 |
| Dr_willis | hp, weird. You might want to try the xubuntu cd's and check the forum for your exact brand/make pc - see if others have similer issues. | 01:55 |
| puff | amenado: No? | 01:55 |
| hischild | dev1n, those can be moved as far as i know. If not, it'll warn you | 01:56 |
| dev1n | ok | 01:56 |
| amenado | puff no! | 01:56 |
| Dr_willis | blockcipher, fat32 is ok. But has limits. You can read/write ext2/3 with the proper windows drivers in windows.. or read/write ntfs under linux with ntfs-3g | 01:56 |
| dev1n | hischild: it gives me the starting box..."loading kinux kernel" | 01:56 |
| dev1n | hischild: it's hung at 3% | 01:57 |
| dev1n | (as usual) | 01:57 |
| hischild | dev1n, .... no other warnings or anything? | 01:57 |
| dev1n | no | 01:57 |
| blockcipher | Dr_willis, has a size limit is that what you are refering to for fat32? | 01:57 |
| dev1n | hischild: let me know when you think i should give up waiting | 01:57 |
| dev1n | it's still at 3% | 01:57 |
| soreau | ere4si: So just install the ubuntu OS to one of the hard disks and then configure RAID? | 01:57 |
| Dr_willis | blockcipher, isent there a 4gb file size limit for fat32.. I forget - been so long. :) i just use ntfs/ext3 these days | 01:57 |
| hischild | dev1n, alright ... try again ... this time again without the quiet and splash option and add --> acpi=off <-- | 01:58 |
| ere4si | soreau, don't do raid - just know the link :) | 01:58 |
| dev1n | ok | 01:58 |

| bascule | Dr_willis: yeah 2**32 bytes max file size | 01:58 |
| blockcipher | Dr_willis, cool i just had issues getting to ntfs on my last ubutu load so I was trying to avoid that pain again :) | 01:58 |
| soreau | ere4si: Ok, thanks, I'll ask if I have a problem here I guess (ugh ;) | 01:58 |
| Dr_willis | blockcipher, i have no issues read/writing ntfs.. :) or you could use ext2/3 and let windows read it with those drivers | 01:58 |
| ere4si | :) | 01:59 |
| Dr_willis | !ext2 | 01:59 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about ext2 - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 01:59 |
| Azodon | ubuntu is great, i was able to install kubuntu-desktop and remove 99% of the KDE apps and keep mostly just gnome apps or universal apps. and still try kde! | 01:59 |
| Dr_willis | !ext3 | blockcipher | 01:59 |
| ubotu | blockcipher: ext3 is the default filesystem on Ubuntu, and the most popular on Linux. You can read/write from Windows to ext3 via http://www.fs-driver.org | 01:59 |
| blockcipher | Dr_willis, thanks i appreciate it :D | 01:59 |

| tgm4883_laptop | i'm in the alt cd partitioner right now, but it doesn't help much | 02:12 |
| amenado | tgm4883-> you should read the guide before starting an install | 02:12 |
| pyrak | amenado, well let's assume yes. i'm pretty sure. | 02:12 |
| tgm4883_laptop | amenado, what guide? | 02:12 |
| ConstyXIV | I got a "grub-install (hd0) failed" trying to install; how can i fix that? | 02:13 |
| killown | how I do to change emerald to metacity? | 02:13 |
| amenado | pyrak then make sure your wrt54g forwards the correct ports to your server/router/gateway | 02:13 |
| SimplySeth | !alternate install | 02:13 |
| amenado | tgm4883-> you asked if there was a guide, i assume there is, and you should have read it before starting your install | 02:13 |
| ere4si | killown, try in terminal metacity --replace | 02:13 |
| pyrak | amenado, right, so the thing is, i want to know if i can connect to the router offsite to tweak port forwarding | 02:13 |
| amenado | killown-> i think metacity --replace | 02:13 |
| amenado | pyrak want me to test it for you? | 02:14 |

| triorieel | ^^I see ubuntu hardy uses the totem version I am failing to compile and would like to know how to install hardy's version | 02:56 |
| Dr_willis | eifzon, set the users path to include only a direcory that contains irssi, check out the bash man pages for the secure bash option also. | 02:56 |
| IndyGunFreak | SimplySeth: that could be part of it. | 02:56 |
| icesword | googlingtingwana, hmmm | 02:56 |

| Fwblean | I'm using (x?)tightvnc for my vnc server on an ubuntu box, but every time I connect it gives me a new virtual x desktop | 04:10 |
| Tundra99999 | No - it shifted which court had to hear the arguement | 04:11 |
| Fwblean | Which vnc servers will let me control my actual Ubuntu desktop? | 04:11 |
| AtomicSpark | depends if you ask the rpaa | 04:11 |
| RockinKnight07 | hey guys | 04:11 |
| RockinKnight07 | quesion | 04:11 |
| Sinnerman | is there a way to flush hard disk and memory caches? | 04:11 |
| AtomicSpark | Fwblean: you have to enable full desktop when you start vnc-server session. | 04:11 |
| Flannel | Tundra99999: AAC is patent encumbered. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Audio_Coding#Licensing_and_patents | 04:11 |
| Tundra99999 | it's property rights vs. license -- two very different fields of law | 04:12 |
| RockinKnight07 | whenever I try to add a program | 04:12 |
| AtomicSpark | Fwblean: its in a file somewhere.. let me find the path | 04:12 |
| Cromag | !enter | 04:12 |
| ubotu | Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 04:12 |
| RockinKnight07 | it keeps on saying that I don't have a updated list of | 04:12 |
| RockinKnight07 | apps so i cannot add any apps | 04:12 |
| c0da | i'm trying to get bluetooth to work. it's asking me for firmware location. where in my windows instalation would it be? | 04:12 |
| === ganteng is now known as brain_boy | ||
| Tundra99999 | patent encumbered is not the same as illegal -- I make an AAC using a licensed encoder, I'm good | 04:12 |
| ere4si | !enter | RockinKnight07 | 04:12 |
| RockinKnight07 | is this because my comp has AMD? | 04:12 |
| ubotu | RockinKnight07: please see above | 04:12 |
| === brain_boy is now known as ganteng | ||
| Fwblean | AtomicSpark: Okay, thanks | 04:12 |
| === speeddemon8803 is now known as Alan_M | ||
| RockinKnight07 | ohh mkay thanks :P | 04:13 |
| googlingtingwana | AtomicSpark, you can flush memory associated with file systems using "sync" | 04:13 |
| ere4si | RockinKnight07, click the reload button | 04:13 |
| c0da | i'm trying to get bluetooth to work. it's asking me for firmware location. where in my windows instalation would it be? | 04:13 |
| triorieel | can someone please help me fix my gstreamer? without it ubuntu is no good to me for obvious reasons. thank you in advanced. | 04:13 |
| === ganteng is now known as brain_boy | ||
| googlingtingwana | Sinnerman, answered wrong person, oops, try "sync" | 04:13 |
| Seven_Jews | any one know of a music converter for ubuntu that converts ogg to mp3? | 04:14 |
| AtomicSpark | Fwblean: $HOME/.vnc/xstartup go find that file. open it in a text editor. it will tell you to uncomment for full desktop. | 04:14 |
| bruenig | Seven_Jews: ffmpeg | 04:14 |
| Fwblean | AtomicSpark: Cool, thanks | 04:14 |
| khaotik | anyone familiar with core ftp? | 04:14 |
| ere4si | Seven_Jews, mencoder does that well - but is cli | 04:14 |
| AtomicSpark | googlingtingwana: what? lol | 04:14 |
| c0da | i'm trying to get bluetooth to work. it's asking me for firmware location. where in my windows instalation would it be? | 04:14 |
| Seven_Jews | aight ty will try it | 04:15 |
| tbrock | I'm still kind of confused after reading some of these docs | 04:15 |
| Sinnerman | googlingtingwana i didn't mean sync/flush to disk, but to clear the cache altogether. like, you know, if you have something cached it loads faster, i want to clear the cache to see how long something would take to load from just having booted up, without having to reboot. | 04:15 |
| googlingtingwana | AtomicSpark, I answered the wrong handle by mistake | 04:15 |
| tbrock | what is the first step | 04:15 |
| bl3u | For the life of me, I can't figure out how to download the madwifi driver | 04:15 |
| tbrock | I want to get a mentor and work on some packages | 04:15 |
| AtomicSpark | googlingtingwana: ah thats fine :) just checking. | 04:15 |
| booster_ | thanks guys...i now have flash player working on gusty | 04:15 |
| KEROLiUKAS | I got a quick question guys.. | 04:15 |
| Flannel | tbrock: #ubuntu-motu has al sorts of stuff for you (check the topic, and the people) | 04:15 |
| c0da | i'm trying to get bluetooth to work. it's asking me for firmware location. where in my windows instalation would it be????????????????????????????????/ | 04:15 |
| AtomicSpark | so anyone know where that list of free vs non-free formats? i could of sworn i saw one somewhere (ubuntu wiki). | 04:15 |
| tbrock | ok thanks | 04:15 |
| tbrock | I'll try there | 04:15 |
| Flannel | !repeat | c0da | 04:15 |
| ubotu | c0da: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience | 04:15 |
| khaotik | is there an option on either gFTP or Filezilla to edit a file when you click on it like in CoreFTP?? | 04:16 |
| c0da | !patience | 04:16 |
| ubotu | The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines | 04:16 |
| googlingtingwana | Sinnerman, I'm not aware of a utility to do it | 04:16 |
| * AtomicSpark realises googling the wiki is better then using it's search. | 04:17 | |
| KEROLiUKAS | When i pop in the CD, and the menu pops up, I press Start or Install Ubuntu, and after that I see a black screen..this is with 7.10...Worked fine with 7.4 any ideas? | 04:17 |

| KEROLiUKAS | 7.04* | 04:17 |

| KEROLiUKAS | any ideas? | 04:19 |
| tbrock | on another note | 04:19 |
| tbrock | do you guys know what is good to remove to save battery | 04:19 |
| tbrock | in terms of modules | 04:19 |
| Some_Person | How do I change the ugly "X" cursor for X servers without a WM to the default ubuntu cursor? | 04:19 |
| tbrock | does that kind of thing help at all | 04:19 |
| googlingtingwana | KEROLiUKAS, have you tried the "safe mode" option? - it treats the display differently | 04:19 |
| iobelix | hey usser! i fixed it! | 04:19 |
| KEROLiUKAS | yea | 04:19 |
| usser | iobelix: cool! what was it? | 04:20 |
| AtomicSpark | gplflash, swfdec, gnash, or flash-non-free: which do you use and why? | 04:20 |
| amenado | KEROLiUKAS-> how long did you wait after the black screen? | 04:20 |
| KEROLiUKAS | googlingtingwana after a quick google, other 8800 series users report that problem, though no fix posted | 04:20 |
| iobelix | usser, it was so simple! i feel so stupid. my MAC address. i have the mac filter enabled. and i did not have the mac address of the wireless card on the permission list! | 04:20 |
| bruenig | Some_Person: look in /usr/share/icons for all available cursors | 04:20 |
| bl3u | help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/Madwifi states that madwifi is installed in 7.10, but modprobe -l |grep ath_pci returns nothing. I can't find any debs to download - any ideas how I get madwifi on 7.10? | 04:20 |
| bruenig | each directory name should be a separate curor theme | 04:20 |
| Some_Person | bruenig: it doesnt seem to work | 04:20 |
| bruenig | or somesuch | 04:20 |
| usser | iobelix: haha are you serious? :) | 04:20 |

| AtomicSpark | iobelix: doh! i've enabled mac filtering while on wireless once. that was dumb. :P | 04:21 |
| usser | bluefoxx: look into dd | 04:21 |
| Some_Person | bruenig: but when I start a new Xserver I still get the ugly "X" | 04:21 |
| Cromag | Zyferian: yes. | 04:21 |
| amenado | KEROLiUKAS-> perhaps wait longer? | 04:21 |
| Cromag | Zyferian: did you just boot the box up as new ? - New install of ubuntu ? | 04:21 |
| Zyferian | cromag, yes, brand new... just finished the instal. | 04:22 |
| googlingtingwana | KEROLiUKAS, I think there's also a text mode - have you tried that? | 04:22 |
| amenado | KEROLiUKAS-> also look what is happening during boot ... at ctrl+alt+f1 | 04:22 |
| usser | bluefoxx: something like dd if=/dev/fd of=/pathtoimage | 04:22 |
| efren30 | i need help please i just installed ubunut everything working perfect except one thing i installed a visual effect and was working fine the windows would wobble wen i grabbed them etc.. i kept meesing around with it to get the 3-d cube and now the visual effect says none and when i try putting extra it says desktop effects could not be endab le please help and thanks. | 04:22 |
| Cromag | Zyferian: reboot again, and dont install the -new drivers yet. | 04:22 |
| iobelix | usser, yes yes dumb is me! i don't care, me happy!! seriously though, all this talk i hear of wpa2 not working, i always thought it was a linux issue, not the router. but man, it works out of the box. i honestly configured nothing extra at all! | 04:22 |
| Cromag | Zyferian: after that try with restricted drivers. | 04:22 |
| KEROLiUKAS | yea i tried text mode, no worky...what exactly is ctrl alt f1 supposed to do? | 04:22 |
| KEROLiUKAS | show all the status like in the old versions? | 04:22 |
| Fwblean | AtomicSpark: I can't seem to find the full desktop section in $HOME/.vnc/xstartup - any suggestions? I can pastebin the file | 04:22 |
| bluefoxx | and if so, what is the command? | 04:22 |
| Zyferian | cromag, I tried the restricted drivers thing and it asked for the nvidia-glx-new package | 04:23 |
| Daisuke_Ido | quick question - what's the default kernel version for gutsy? (including ubuntu revision number) 2.6.22-14? | 04:23 |
| amenado | !who | KEROLiUKAS | 04:23 |
| ubotu | KEROLiUKAS: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) | 04:23 |
| Cromag | Zyferian: weird, i just had the same problem... i just rebooted and installed the restricted stuff.. | 04:23 |
| Cromag | Zyferian: then it worked. | 04:23 |
| Some_Person | bruenig: am i doing something wrong? or do i need to reboot? or does it only apply to one Xserver? | 04:23 |
| === Fersure is now known as Fersure|brb | ||

| Zyferian | cromag, well, it's working on rebooting right now and we'll see what happens then. | 04:23 |
| tbrock | or what is the command to see how much power you are currently drawing | 04:23 |
| Flannel | !afk > Fersure|brb | 04:23 |
| usser | iobelix: im happy for you, it also may depend a lot on the wireless chipset one has | 04:23 |

| Fersure|brb | o.o | 04:24 |
| Cromag | Zyferian: ok. get back to me :) | 04:24 |

| olskolirc | hey guys where can I do to upload a quick pic please? | 04:24 |
| Flannel | Daisuke_Ido: yes | 04:24 |

| Fersure|brb | Errmmm..... | 04:24 |
| Daisuke_Ido | Flannel: that's *exactly* what i wanted to hear. | 04:24 |
| tbrock | got it acpitool -B | 04:24 |
| KEROLiUKAS | googlingtingwana / amenado :yea i tried text mode, no worky...what exactly is ctrl alt f1 supposed to do? | 04:24 |
| dangermike | olskolirc imageshack.us ? | 04:24 |
| bluefoxx | i want to archive all my old programs on fdd onto a backup hard disk | 04:24 |
| olskolirc | thanks | 04:24 |
| Cpudan80 | Fwblean: You trying to setup VNC ? | 04:24 |
| Fwblean | AtomicSpark: No | 04:24 |
| amenado | KEROLiUKAS-> its where dmesg dumps its status during boot | 04:24 |
| dangermike | bluefoxx your question has already been answered | 04:24 |
| Flannel | Daisuke_Ido: http://packages.ubuntu.com/gutsy/linux-image-generic | 04:24 |
| Fwblean | Cpudan80: Yeah, trying to get normal desktop under xtightvnc | 04:24 |
| KEROLiUKAS | amenado im going to try it now, when exactly do i press it? | 04:25 |
| dangermike | <usser> bluefoxx: something like dd if=/dev/fd of=/pathtoimage | 04:25 |
| Cpudan80 | Fwblean: Yeah, th instructions that come with Ubuntu are wrong --- you have to do two things | 04:25 |
| __mikem | Hey Flannel did I tell you, I FINALLY have a native install of ubuntu | 04:25 |
| Flannel | __mikem: glad to hear it | 04:25 |
| bluefoxx | dangermike: i see that. i am stating the reason i wish to know, incase someone has a better way. ok, thanks | 04:25 |
| amenado | KEROLiUKAS-> after you make a selection from the menu | 04:25 |
| Cpudan80 | Fwblean: So, first, enable the default thing under system --> prefs --> remote desktop | 04:25 |
| tbrock | hey so i found out that i may want to unload bluetooth, firewire, and usb | 04:25 |
| Fersure|brb | Okay Flannel . | 04:25 |
| KEROLiUKAS | amenado : all right thanks...ill go try | 04:25 |
| AtomicSpark | Fwblean: do you have vnc server installed? not just the client! wait ubuntu desktop. its built in! do waht CPU says | 04:25 |
| Fersure|brb | Didn't know. | 04:26 |
| Fersure|brb | ty | 04:26 |
| Cpudan80 | Fwblean: THat'll let you VNC in when someone else is logged in (similar to XP desktop sharing) | 04:26 |
| Some_Person | How do I change the ugly "X" cursor for X servers without a WM to the default ubuntu cursor? | 04:26 |
| Zyferian | cromag, yeah, same thing happened. Says nvidia-glx-new is not enabled. | 04:26 |
| tbrock | when i try to rmmod those modules it says that it doesn't exist in /proc/modules, do you guys have any idea why | 04:26 |
| Cpudan80 | AtomicSpark: No, it's not built in - Ubuntu definitely half assed the VNC stuff | 04:26 |
| tbrock | they show up in lsmod | 04:26 |
| bl3u | Is there not a madwifi deb? I can't install madwifi from teh repositories? | 04:26 |
| Cromag | Zyferian: thats because it got installed somehow then, is this in the restricted drivers window ? | 04:26 |
| Cpudan80 | Fwblean: Once you do that, you need to actually setup a VNC server so you can VNC in when nobody else is logged in | 04:26 |
| efren30 | i need help please i just installed ubunut everything working perfect except one thing i installed a visual effect and was working fine the windows would wobble wen i grabbed them etc.. i kept meesing around with it to get the 3-d cube and now the visual effect says none and when i try putting extra it says desktop effects could not be endab le please help and thanks. | 04:26 |
| amenado | tbrock-> does it do the same if you do modprobe -r modname ? | 04:27 |
| mocie_girl | halooooooooooooooo | 04:27 |
| Zyferian | cromag Yes, indeed | 04:27 |
| Cpudan80 | Fwblean: lemme get that tutorial | 04:27 |
| dangermike | bl3u http://madwifi.org/wiki/UserDocs/GettingMadwifi#Downloading.debs | 04:27 |
| Cromag | Zyferian: and if you enable it ? | 04:27 |
| tbrock | let me check that out | 04:27 |
| Cromag | Zyferian: or at least try :) | 04:27 |
| Fwblean | Cpudan80: I setup xtightvnc using apt-get | 04:27 |
| Flannel | efren30: Probably best to wait something like 15 minutes in-between instead of just a couple | 04:27 |
| Zyferian | cromag then it just gives that message... doesn't get any farther... | 04:27 |
| Cpudan80 | Fwblean: That might be wrong... | 04:27 |
| tbrock | amenado, nope that works | 04:27 |
| tbrock | how did you know that would work and how is it different | 04:27 |
| Fwblean | Cpudan80: What should I be using instead? | 04:28 |
| Cpudan80 | Fwblean: gimmiea sec to get the tutorial | 04:28 |
| Adys | What's the package to read .rars ? | 04:28 |
| Fwblean | Cpudan80: Okay, sure | 04:28 |
| Adys | Dont need to create them | 04:28 |
| prince_jammys | Adys: unrar | 04:28 |
| bl3u | dangermike: thank you, but I thought for sure Ubuntu would support atheros out of box | 04:28 |
| Adys | cheer | 04:28 |
| efren30 | flannel:what do you mean for someone to answer my question? | 04:28 |
| Cpudan80 | Fwblean: http://www.movingtofreedom.org/2007/02/16/howto-remote-desktop-with-vnc-in-ubuntu-edgy-gnu-linux/ | 04:28 |
| bl3u | dangermike: I'm not sure why they don't | 04:28 |
| dangermike | it should | 04:28 |
| Cromag | Zyferian: ok, i tried the same and actually ended up with "no screens found" - now i tried again, and just rebooted after the install. Enabled the restricted drivers and it worked. i did not mess with anything before that. After that i did a sudo nvidia-settings to fix screens. | 04:28 |
| lordleemo | Fwblean: sudo apt-get install vnc4server good tutorial here http://www.movingtofreedom.org/2007/02/16/howto-remote-desktop-with-vnc-in-ubuntu-edgy-gnu-linux/ | 04:28 |
| bl3u | dangermike: I just installed 7.10 server, and it didn't give me ath_pci | 04:28 |
| Cpudan80 | Fwblean: The gdm stuff is at etc/gdm/gdm.conf --- otherwise it is still valid | 04:29 |
| bl3u | dangermike: and I can't find anywhere from Ubuntu that I can download it | 04:29 |
| Ashfire908 | i hit some key combination, and i got the stopped process thing, i forget how do i resume the program? | 04:29 |
| Zyferian | cromag I haven't touched anything before this either... for the record | 04:29 |
| dangermike | bl3u i havent tried it with 7.10 but with nubuntu and it worked, meh you can get the deb from madwifi no biggie | 04:29 |
| Fwblean | Okay, thanks Cpudan80, lordleemo, I'll remove xtightvnc and see how vnc4server goes | 04:29 |
| amenado | tbrock i believe moprobe takes care of dependencies too | 04:29 |
| Cpudan80 | Fwblean: Either one would probably work --- but I know that that tutorial works in the end | 04:29 |
| Cromag | Zyferian: thats weird, really... try and see what sudo nvidia-settings does. | 04:29 |
| googlingtingwana | bl3u, the madwifi software is available in one of the extra software sources - just enable it synaptic | 04:29 |
| tbrock | awesome thanks man | 04:29 |

| aghachi | how do i edit xorg.cont manuelly? i want to input more resolutons for my monitor 2.. its at 640x480... but it can handle 1280x1240 but it doesnt show in nvidia settings... and when i found the file to edit i didnt have permission to edit it | 04:31 |

| fdsjkalf | When I press a hotkey, I dont know what the system interprets the key as. How do I make the system display the written key function? | 04:33 |
| amenado | Ashfire908-> suspend is not same as killing the process though | 04:33 |
| Cromag | Zyferian: im on 7.04 :( - might be the reason. | 04:33 |
| Ashfire908 | amenado, i know. | 04:33 |

| Zyferian | cromag Odd that it would get worse with newer version though... *chuckles* | 04:35 |
| nickrud | !gutsysources | bl3u (you might want to check them all) | 04:35 |
| ubotu | bl3u (you might want to check them all): gutsysources is in System->Admin->Software Sources, enable (main) (universe) (restricted) and (multiverse) and disable the Cdrom on the Ubuntu Software tab. On the Updates tab, enable (gutsy-security) and (gutsy-updates). | 04:35 |
| triorieel | anyone who knows anything about the sounds system of ubuntu, I need your help as I have somehow buggerd mine up by using the synaptic package manager | 04:35 |
| Cromag | Zyferian: heh well :D i had some help from googlingtingwana and it worked. | 04:35 |

| Zyferian | googlingtingwana: do you have any advice for getting nvidia drivers working that don't wanna? | 04:38 |
| dangermike | bl3u whats the package name that you need? | 04:38 |
| nickrud | bl3u: ah, missed that. The repos listed there are worth checking, anyway :) | 04:38 |
| efren30 | dangermike did you get it? | 04:38 |
| dangermike | efren30 no i still dont have any pm's | 04:38 |
| dangermike | Zyferian its not supported but i used envy and it worked very well for me | 04:38 |
| dangermike | !envy | 04:38 |
| ubotu | envy is not needed or supported. Use the Resticted Manager to install binary drivers and see « /msg ubotu binarydriver » | 04:38 |
| googlingtingwana | Zyferian, they just worked for me, after enabling them and a couple of reboots :) | 04:38 |
| efren30 | how would i only be abe to see what you type for me mike? | 04:39 |
| bl3u | dangermike: I thought it was madwifi | 04:39 |
| Zyferian | So no one's heard of the whole nvidia-glx-new thing not enabled? or not working? etc? | 04:39 |
| bl3u | dangermike: I can find madwifi_tools, but no madwifi. I uncommented all the repos | 04:39 |
| dangermike | efren30 ill put your name in front if it ^_^ | 04:39 |
| bl3u | dangermike: And did an apt-get update; aptitude search madwifi | 04:39 |
| dangermike | bl3u do you know what the package name is that you need to install? | 04:40 |
| triorieel | ubuntu finds soundcard and can use it to play startup music, but it can't find it in gnome? why? | 04:40 |
| bl3u | dangermike: not for a fact, no. i am assuming it would be madwifi | 04:40 |
| googlingtingwana | Zyferian, you could see if the nvidia site has a later version, but then you are somewhat on your own | 04:40 |
| efren30 | dangermike: ok i want some effects likle beryl 3-d desktop thing can u im me the packages i need to rock my pc please | 04:40 |

| eifzon | it says its already installed | 04:42 |
| Bossmanbeta | anyone aware of a way of detaching a remote X application running via 'ssh -Y' for re-attaching later? (Just like 'screen' but for X apps) There's an old-old app called 'xmove' (last updated 1997) but it's very buggy and doesn't work. VNC and NX are whole-desktop solutions and doesn't work well when I want to run local & remote apps on a unified local desktop. | 04:42 |
| Long | Is there a key for minimizing full screen application like games? Windows has a key for this action as u all know... | 04:42 |

| googlingtingwana | bl3u, I'm leading you astray, even though I'm using madwifi drivers I don't have madwifi-tools installed - I'm still looking into it | 04:44 |
| Zyferian | googlingtingwana cromag I got it... I think... it was the problem with the (restricted) package repositories not being enabled... that didn't allow Ubuntu to download the gfx drivers that it needed to enable the thing properly. | 04:44 |
| efren30 | how can i check the version i have | 04:44 |
| efren30 | and danger were can i download the one you have =) | 04:45 |

| dangermike | bl3u yeah that would do it | 04:48 |
| amenado | jack-desktop-> but you do have java already? which version? | 04:48 |
| nickrud | Some_Person: you might try sudo update-alternatives --config x-cursor-theme | 04:48 |
| dangermike | tehCurtis what are you trying to "reload" | 04:48 |
| tehCurtis | init.d/ssh | 04:49 |
| bl3u | dangermike: googlingtingwana: thanks very much for your help. pointed me in the right direction :) | 04:49 |

| SimplySeth | Luke2008: what GUI ? | 04:54 |

| luisgmarine | What is the easiest way to change the icon in the main menu? Instead of using the default ubuntu sign I want something else | 05:00 |
| efren30 | k | 05:00 |
| nirir | hi, steve,.. | 05:00 |
| Dr_willis | Some_Person, artwiz replaces the default x cursor. | 05:00 |
| Amaranth | whoa lag | 05:00 |
| Zyferian | cromag Oh, there we go... thanks... was having issues with that | 05:00 |
| Some_Person | Dr_willis: oh, ok | 05:00 |
| Dr_willis | Some_Person, gnome and kde have theor own 'cursor' system.. then theres the original X cursirs | 05:00 |
| jack-desktop | amenado, yes. | 05:00 |
| eifzon | Anyone can help me with this? has to to with my jail: http://pastebin.ca/924258 | 05:00 |
| Dr_willis | Some_Person, the X cursors are actually font files. :) i recall. | 05:00 |
| Cromag | Zyferian: oh you got it that far :D - i still need some other settings for it to be what i need though. | 05:00 |
| Dezine | dangermike, alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device | 05:00 |
| Cromag | !flash | 05:01 |
| ubotu | To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash (for !Dapper and !Edgy, a recent version is available in !backports) - See also !Restricted and !Gnash | 05:01 |
| Dr_willis | Some_Person, so you will see the artwiz cursor in window managers other then gnome, most likely | 05:01 |
| amenado | jack-desktop-> there you have been a link to your /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins or /usr/lib/firefox*/plugins | 05:01 |
| Bossmanbeta | amenado, that's a cool program, but it won't survive the disconnect of the ssh tunnel, it just allows for independent apps to run within a virtual X session laid-over your real X session | 05:01 |
| Some_Person | Dr_willis: makes sense, what does it look like? | 05:01 |
| efren30 | jack-ddesktop: look what it says for compiz-gnome: | 05:01 |
| efren30 | Depends: libwnck18 (>=2.15.90) but it is not installable | 05:01 |
| dangermike | Dezine are you part of the group plugdev ? | 05:01 |
| nirir | some body............? | 05:01 |
| nirir | Has quit? | 05:02 |
| amenado | Bossmanbeta-> oh okay..i look around for some more when i get a chance | 05:02 |
| Y-Town | Anyone know why when I try to set my monitor resolution and hit "administrator" it blanks out the screen and refreshed and does not let me access the area? Using KDE | 05:02 |
| googlingtingwana | Cromag, did the standard flash install work for you on Gutsy? - it didn't for me - I had to install the tar.gz from Adobe | 05:02 |
| Zyferian | cromag Yeah, I finally figured out my problem and got the drivers installed... it's working out pretty nicely... still am wishing I had two monitors that were the same size one is 17 and one is 19 | 05:02 |
| wrath144 | if i'm having trouble installing with the live cd, will using the alternat help at all? | 05:02 |
| jack-desktop | amenado, what do you mean "you have been a link" | 05:02 |
| nickrud | nirir: as away, this is a free for all (within limits, of course :) | 05:02 |
| soreau | Would anyone willing to help me configure LVM with the 7.06 ubuntu alt cd? I'm getting mixed messages as the live cd has an option to do so, but this guide shows that I should configure LVM _after_ installing? Any ideas welcome, thanks. http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/ | 05:02 |
| nickrud | nirir: ask, that is | 05:02 |
| Cromag | googlingtingwana: it did not, im trying to fix gnash and see if it works. | 05:02 |
| efren30 | jack-ddesktop: look what it says for compiz-gnome Depends libwnck18 (>=2.15.90) but it is not installable | 05:02 |
| Bossmanbeta | amenado, I'm really greatful -- I'll keep asking at regular un-annoying intervals.. you never know who has gone through the same trial-n-tribulation and solved it entering a channel this big | 05:02 |
| dangermike | "Seg Fault (core dump)" happens with epiphany, galeon, and firefox 2.0.0.12. I tried moving the .mozilla folder and creating a new profile, as well as reinstalling firefox, and downloaded firefox 2.0.0.6 college student edition. Firefox is still seg faulting, it is now installed under /opt instead of ~, any ideas on how to fix this or find whats causing it to happen? | 05:02 |
| amenado | jack-desktop-> i meant there should have been a link there ..im on the firefox 2.x so it has that plugin | 05:02 |
| Cromag | Zyferian: i believe it can be fine with those two sizes. | 05:02 |
| Dr_willis | Some_Person, an arrow :) sort of like the spaceship on asteroide | 05:03 |
| dangermike | i have purged and autoclean on firefox and reinstalled and i still seg fault | 05:03 |
| efren30 | jack-desktop: look what it says for compiz-gnome Depends libwnck18 (>=2.15.90) but it is not installable | 05:03 |
| Dezine | dangermike, I don't think so, it's not listed under users settings. | 05:03 |
| nirir | hi, nickrud! | 05:03 |
| rich__ | hello | 05:03 |
| Zyferian | cromag Yeah, it works... just not as nice as having two 19's | 05:03 |
| amenado | Bossmanbeta-> correct..someone must have done it beforehand.. | 05:03 |
| soreau | I am at the partitioning screen now with two disks completely free space | 05:03 |
| dangermike | Dezine i googled your error and found a post stating that it fixed the problem for one person you may want to add that group but it may not be your fix :\ | 05:03 |
| Cromag | Zyferian: i have 2 x21 :P | 05:03 |
| Dezine | alright I'll try | 05:03 |
| Cromag | Zyferian: just to rub it heh | 05:03 |
| Zyferian | cromag Yeah, well... bah to you! heh | 05:04 |
| nirir | Nickrud may i join with u? | 05:04 |
| Cromag | heh | 05:04 |
| jack-desktop | efren30, i'm not really sure, i'm not a tech here or anything | 05:04 |
| Some_Person | Dr_willis: ermm, I installed it, and it changed my cursor in gnome, but in the xserver without WM, I still got ugly X | 05:04 |
| nickrud | nirir: no, this is a support channel. I don't chat much | 05:04 |
| luisgmarine | anyone know how to change the main menu icon? | 05:04 |
| Bossmanbeta | amenado, I've found at least 100 forum posts on the subject ... each thread ended with similar frustration & no answer... so others are trying it.... In fact, I posted this as a suggestion for a feature in http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com and it's gotten thusfar 7 comments of "oh wow that'd be a great feature" type of comments | 05:04 |
| jack-desktop | amenado, so what should i do? | 05:04 |
| amenado | Y-Town-> do this first xhost +localhost:root to add root access to your local display, | 05:04 |
| good | how do i configure the default runlevel? /etc/inittab doesn't exist.. i don't want to boot up into X windows | 05:04 |
| googlingtingwana | dangermike, do you have any stack trace output from firefox that you could possibly google for? | 05:04 |
| nickrud | nirir: but if you have questions about ubuntu, ask here in the channel, if some knows the answer they'll speak up | 05:04 |
| amenado | Bossmanbeta-> your requirement is a nice one..i hope they the developers look into it | 05:05 |
| wrath144 | if i'm having trouble installing with the live cd, will using the alternat help at all? | 05:05 |
| dangermike | googlingtingwana i ran firefox -g however i am not fimilar with DDD is their anyother way? | 05:05 |
| Cromag | googlingtingwana: acutally, i went to youtube and tried watching a movie, it popped up saying i needed the pluing, and it installed for me and i watched the clip.. :) | 05:05 |
| Dr_willis | Some_Person, no idea then. Could be the window manager has to do the seting. There is some old command that sets the x pointer.. but i dont rember what it is - havent used it in 5+ years. | 05:05 |
| nickrud | good: ubuntu doesn't use run levels like that. It starts in run level 2, but X runs in 2-5 anyway. install bum , and use that to turn off gdm in run level 2 | 05:05 |
| amenado | jack-desktop-> when the firefox beta installed, was there a similar /usr/lib/firefox* directory for it? | 05:06 |
| Bossmanbeta | amenado, agreed... I think in the day of gui apps as we're in ... it only makes sense ... not that 'screen' isn't extremely useful (it is) .. but I think it's time for an X version of the same thing | 05:06 |
| good | nickrud: thanks | 05:06 |
| jack-desktop | amenado, there was a ~/firefox | 05:06 |
| dangermike | .mozilla | 05:06 |
| amenado | Bossmanbeta-> ideas like yours keeps these developers and us users happier.. | 05:06 |
| === steve__ is now known as vorian | ||
| Cromag | Zyferian: i still need to be able to move my apps around between the windows.. but still 2 desktops.. | 05:07 |
| googlingtingwana | dangermike, sometimes if you run it from the shell it will dump out a stack trace, but it depends on whether it has any symbols | 05:07 |
| amenado | jack-desktop-> is that where you have the firefox beta installed? | 05:07 |
| Dr_willis | Some_Person, doing some googling for info - found --> http://osdir.com/ml/xfree86.devel/2003-12/msg00271.html | 05:07 |
| Bossmanbeta | amenado, indeed... only in the community can growth and happiness thrive :) | 05:07 |
| jack-desktop | amenado, yes | 05:07 |
| Zyferian | cromag Yes... I would like to do that myself... let me know if you find a solution | 05:07 |
| efren30 | jack-desktop:wowowowomg i got it yay i got the compiz setting i opened it what i do now? | 05:07 |
| Cromag | Zyferian: i had one once hehe | 05:07 |
| jack-desktop | efren30, what are you trying to do? | 05:07 |
| xeenan | Does anyone know of a website were i can get a patch for pc games | 05:07 |
| Zyferian | cromag Wasn't one of those permanent types, eh? | 05:07 |
| regeya | so bossmanbeta you want, um, holy fricking frack, what was the name of the x server based on vnc...not finding it in the repos, but I swear I ran it 10 years ago. | 05:08 |
| Cromag | Zyferian: huh ? - brb | 05:08 |
| efren30 | jack-desktop:put the cube the flame writing the closing ash page | 05:08 |
| Bossmanbeta | regeya, VNC and NX (nomachine) are whole-desktop solutions .... | 05:08 |
| Estesark | My screen fades out after about ten minutes of inactivity, regardless of whether Compiz is active. I can't find any settings to change this in Power Management. How can I disable this or increase the time it takes before it fades? | 05:08 |
| jack-desktop | efren30, press ctrl+alt+click your mouse to use the cube | 05:08 |
| good | is there a text-based alternative to "bum" for managing the runlevel scripts such as rc-update and chkconfig for gentoo and redhat/centos respectivelly.. ? | 05:08 |
| Bossmanbeta | regeya, I'm looking for an application-specific detachability becuase I run remote and local apps on my local desktop ... I've tried VNC/NX... which work, but I have to size the whole-desktop down to just the single-application border... which is a needless pain in my opinion :) | 05:09 |
| regeya | bossmanbeta: I see...you want to be able to detach from the x server. | 05:09 |
| pretender | cant get 1680 x 1050 resolution help | 05:09 |
| jack-desktop | efren30, fire you need to do super+shift+click mouse | 05:09 |
| dangermike | googlingtingwana when i run from term i just get the seg fault thats it. I seen the debug flag section in the man pages but no actual flags to use, any you can recommend ? (firefox --gtk-debug=xxx) | 05:09 |
| googlingtingwana | amenado, jack-desktop, things are running by too fast for me to see what started your discussion, but does it have to do with placing plugins in /usr/lib/mozilla versus /usr/lib/firefox? | 05:09 |
| Zyferian | cromag Oh, if you had one once, you don't anymore... at least that was what I figured you meant | 05:09 |
| regeya | cool | 05:09 |
| Bossmanbeta | regeya, precisely ... just like 'screen' offers for shell-based apps | 05:09 |
| bluefoxx | ok, so i installed a new DVD burner recently, however, i still dont have a /dev/dvd entry in my system, it just connect the dvd burner to /dev/cdrom. how can i fix this? | 05:09 |
| jack-desktop | googlingtingwana, no google, i'm tryng to get my java to work in firefox beta | 05:09 |
| Daisuke_Ido | he's taking a while getting back :\ | 05:09 |
| Daisuke_Ido | i hope the driver worked | 05:10 |
| amenado | jack-desktop-> then does it have a plugins directory? that is where you put a copy of that libjavaplugin.so or a symlink from /etc/alternatives/libjavaplugin.so | 05:10 |
| Bossmanbeta | regeya, you're thinkg of xmove? | 05:10 |
| dangermike | bluefoxx my dvd player is listed as /dev/cdrom | 05:10 |
| Bossmanbeta | regeya, that buggy-not-working-POS ? :-) | 05:10 |
| nickrud | Some_Person: what does /usr/share/icons/default/index.theme say? | 05:10 |
| Dr_willis | Some_Person xsetroot --help | 05:10 |
| dnquark | folks, Gnome doesn't load for me, says "Gtk-WARNING **: This process is currently running setuid or setgid."... | 05:10 |
| Dr_willis | Some_Person xsetroot -cursor_name <cursor-font name> | 05:10 |
| bluefoxx | dangermike: yea, but i need it to be /dev/dvd, some programs are refusing to use it otherwise | 05:10 |
| amenado | googlingtingwana-> yes, he is looking for libjavaplugin.so for the firefox beta | 05:10 |
| Some_Person | nickrud: Inherits=DMZ-White | 05:10 |
| Some_Person | Dr_willis: ok | 05:10 |
| soreau | Would anyone willing to help me configure LVM with the 7.06 ubuntu alt cd? I'm getting mixed messages as the live cd has an option to do so, but this guide shows that I should configure LVM _after_ installing? Any ideas welcome, thanks. http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/ | 05:10 |
| soreau | I am at the partitioning screen now with two disks completely free space | 05:10 |
| nickrud | Some_Person: then that's not helping. See Dr_willis above though | 05:11 |
| googlingtingwana | dangermike, there's a firefox-dbg package which has symbols - you could try installing that to see if it provides more information from the crash | 05:11 |
| Dr_willis | Some_Person, and i got NO idea where ya get the name from. :) | 05:11 |
| regeya | Bossmanbeta: heh, I did a search, and that came up...to tell the truth, Bossmanbeta, I use enough different OSes that detachable x apps just aren't an issue for me. | 05:11 |
| dangermike | googlingtingwana awesome! ill look for that | 05:11 |
| Some_Person | Dr_willis: i'll try to figure it out | 05:11 |
| Bossmanbeta | regeya, by that u mean you use rdesktop or citrix type stufff? | 05:11 |
| Dr_willis | xsetroot -cursor ~/bits/shuttle.bm ~/bits/mask.bm | 05:11 |
| googlingtingwana | jack-desktop, not sure if it's related, but when I manually installed flash I had to put the plugin into /usr/lib/firefox, not /usr/lib/mozilla | 05:11 |
| Dr_willis | Some_Person, guess its just a normal bitmap file. :) | 05:11 |
| amenado | Bossmanbeta-> i wonder what the embedded linux folks have for that.. they seem to be a good user or such features | 05:12 |
| bluefoxx | and BTW, how can i trace a IP address over msn? some asstards are harassing a person whom happens to be very close to me...very bad harrassment...[creepy pedophelia stalker harrasment] | 05:12 |
| Some_Person | Dr_willis: bitmap? | 05:12 |
| regeya | bossmanbeta, I try to keep it cross-platform and open-source so it's by and large vnc | 05:12 |
| jack-desktop | googlingtingwana, amenado thanks i got it working | 05:12 |
| regeya | and of course ssh for console apps | 05:12 |
| Bossmanbeta | regeya, this is a very-specific need, I agree... but to me... for ssh to offer remote X-apps ability via the -Y option, to NOT be able to detach it (at least to provide survivability in case of disconnect) doesn't make sense to me | 05:12 |
| Dr_willis | Some_Person, we are talking OLD skool :) | 05:12 |
| dnquark | Anyone?.. Basically, Gnome refuses to load if I have an .xsession file in my ~/, even if the file is blank. Any tips on how to troubleshoot it? This is more or less a fresh install of Ubuntu | 05:12 |
| j_ | Are there programs for tn3270??? | 05:12 |
| amenado | jack-desktop-> where did you have to put that libjavaplugin.so? | 05:13 |
| Dr_willis | Some_Person, http://stuff.mit.edu/afs/sipb.mit.edu/project/doc/ibitmap/ibitmap.html | 05:13 |
| Bossmanbeta | regeya, VNC (or NX) is the only solution for the moment, and I just make a sour-puss while sizing the window down to the 1-application borders... | 05:13 |
| bluefoxx | so how can i trance a IP address? | 05:13 |
| Dr_willis | Some_Person, now ya know why i just install jwm or some other window manager and let it handle it. | 05:13 |
| Some_Person | Dr_willis: ok | 05:13 |
| usser | bluefoxx: you can run some sort of a traffic sniffer on the machine that runs the IM | 05:13 |
| jack-desktop | amenado, ~/firefox/plugins | 05:13 |
| usser | bluefoxx: like wireshark | 05:13 |
| bl3u | What's the diff b/t the server kernel and the generic kernel? | 05:13 |
| amenado | jack-desktop-> okay....let us know how it goes.. | 05:14 |
| regeya | so you're saying xmove isn't worth the effort, eh, Bossmanbeta :-> I guess I won't mess with it then (though I've often wanted such a thing) | 05:14 |
| NewbieJohn | Anyone up for a /dev question? | 05:14 |
| bluefoxx | usser: i have that, it claimed no suitable interface to scan. | 05:14 |
| zcat[1] | bl3u: preemption | 05:14 |
| Bossmanbeta | regeya, oh by all means... tinker-away............. if you get it working, give me your paypal acct and I'll fwd a you're-super-smart tax that I must pay to all those that I'm not worthy to talk to :) | 05:14 |
| soreau | Would anyone willing to help me configure LVM with the 7.06 ubuntu alt cd? I'm getting mixed messages as the live cd has an option to do so, but this guide shows that I should configure LVM _after_ installing? Any ideas welcome, thanks. http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/ | 05:14 |

| soreau | I am at the partitioning screen now with two disks completely free space | 05:15 |
| amenado | NewbieJohn-> we will respond if we knew the answer or led you to google :P | 05:15 |
| nickrud | !patience soreau | 05:15 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about patience soreau - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 05:15 |
| bl3u | zcat[1]: is that it? | 05:15 |
| nickrud | !patience | soreau | 05:15 |
| Flannel | soreau: You do it during partitioning | 05:15 |
| ubotu | soreau: The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines | 05:15 |
| NewbieJohn | Right on, okay, so I'm trying to get DVD's to play on my computer using gxine | 05:15 |
| Bossmanbeta | nickrud, (lol) | 05:15 |
| regeya | !flood | soreau | 05:15 |
| ubotu | soreau: pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic) | 05:15 |
| NewbieJohn | And part of this appears to be linking dvd to scd0 | 05:15 |
| Daisuke_Ido | still not back :\ | 05:15 |
| regeya | whoops | 05:15 |
| usser | bluefoxx: eh, how do you connect to the internet? | 05:15 |
| NewbieJohn | unfortunately due to my misunderstanding of how to use "link" i managed to blow away my scd0 | 05:15 |
| Daisuke_Ido | and he's still not back | 05:15 |
| soreau | nickrud: I am a support team member in #cf but am about to ditch ubuntu and use another distro | 05:16 |
| NewbieJohn | so how do I recreate this without re-installing ubuntu | 05:16 |
| zcat[1] | bl3u: afaik the only difference is that the desktop kernel has some preemption patch which makes the desktop feel 'snappier' at the slight expense of overall performance | 05:16 |
| Bossmanbeta | regeya, xmove hasn't been touched since 1997...... 'nuff said :) | 05:16 |
| bluefoxx | usser: ethernet | 05:16 |
| soreau | This channel is horridly flooded | 05:16 |
| googlingtingwana | bl3u, http://www.serverwatch.com/tutorials/article.php/3715071 has some comparison information | 05:16 |
| Zyferian | rpm's don't work in Ubuntu do they? | 05:16 |
| nickrud | soreau: your choice. | 05:16 |
| bl3u | googlingtingwana: thanks | 05:16 |
| usser | bluefoxx: then you have an interface | 05:16 |
| nickrud | Zyferian: no | 05:16 |
| Cromag | Zyferian: now it works for me, i enabled the XineRama option in the same place.. | 05:16 |
| bluefoxx | usser: i know that... | 05:16 |
| regeya | soreau, good luck with that. I had lvm2 set up on a machine at work, and ended up making the machine a debian etch machine rather than drop lvm2 or hacking on the danged thing... | 05:16 |
| berlylabs | Has anyone here played yahoo games on their ubuntu OS yet? I can't get mine to work | 05:16 |
| Pichu0102 | http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v34/Pichu0102/Screenshot-SystemMonitor.png Is this normal after browsing for a few hours? | 05:16 |
| Flannel | soreau: I aleady told you. You do it during partitioning. Partition them as LVM partitions, then go up to the LVM manager thing and setup your VGs and LVs | 05:17 |
| berlylabs | have tried tutorials for installing java and I think it's installed but still not working | 05:17 |
| Dr_willis | berlylabs, depends on the game. Ive gotten many to work with wine. | 05:17 |
| bl3u | zcat[1]: so if i'm setting up a home fileserver, i should be fine using -generic? | 05:17 |
| ntolo | How can i deny other users access to firefox and give access to the root only. | 05:17 |
| regeya | Bossmanbeta: heh, in 1997 I wasn't exactly following things like xmove :-) | 05:17 |
| amenado | NewbieJohn-> there use to be a MAKEDEV in /dev/ dont know if that still exist, run it and it creates all the dev it needs, but if its using udev now...not sure what the equivalent is | 05:17 |
| Cromag | Zyferian: its a small checkbox i would call it... and now i need my REAL charset hehe :P | 05:17 |
| usser | bluefoxx: you have to run it using sudo | 05:17 |
| berlylabs | dr_willis: I"m trying to get spades in particular | 05:17 |
| soreau | Flannel: Please elaborate | 05:17 |
| soreau | Flannel: This is my last hope | 05:17 |
| bluefoxx | usser: ah, that explains it lol | 05:17 |
| hellppmme | hi | 05:17 |
| zcat[1] | bl3u: I don't think there's any noticable difference unless your server's handling mad-high loads | 05:17 |
| * bluefoxx tries wireshark again | 05:17 | |
| soreau | I am at the partitioning screen now with two disks completely free space | 05:17 |
| Flannel | soreau: There's nothing else to elaborate on. Partition them in the partitioner as lvm type, then scroll up to the top, to the LVM manager orwhatnot, and enter that. | 05:17 |
| Zyferian | cromag Oh, perfect... that is right, awesome. I need a better background that big... heh | 05:17 |
| Bossmanbeta | regeya, 1997 was a blur ... the dot.com bubble days | 05:17 |
| Dr_willis | berlylabs, if its a downloadeable/exexutable - it may work with wine. Other then that.. good luck. :) ive seen a lot that DONT work with wine also. since they are some how flash-based in a weird way | 05:18 |
| bl3u | zcat[1]: Cool. Generic it is | 05:18 |
| Cromag | Zyferian: hah yes :) me to :P Devianart ftw. | 05:18 |
| berlylabs | what is wine? | 05:18 |
| soreau | Flannel: I would not be asking for help if I was not confused.. | 05:18 |
| ntolo | How can i deny other users access to firefox and give access to the root only? | 05:18 |
| pbjman | Okay, so i'm trying to make ubuntu appear more user friendly for mac users by using mac4lin; On linux-live.org it says to build the aufs kernel module. I tried their precompiled kernel and it kept giving me this error that if I googled came up nothing. | 05:18 |
| Cromag | but now i cant start a normal terminal anymore... | 05:18 |
| Alan_M | !wine | berylabs | 05:18 |
| ubotu | berylabs: WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information, and see !AppDB for application compatibility. | 05:18 |
| nickrud | !wine > berlylabs (see pm) | 05:18 |
| NewbieJohn | so the good news is that makedev works | 05:18 |
| usser | bluefoxx: and you should be able to manually specify the interface to capture on just go to capture->interfaces | 05:18 |
| pbjman | How would I go about "compiling the aufs kernel module"? | 05:18 |
| NewbieJohn | it puts them in .static/dev/ | 05:18 |
| Flannel | soreau: Well, like I said, create partitions (one per drive) as type LVM. | 05:18 |
| Zyferian | cromag I still can. | 05:18 |
| soreau | Flannel: I have in the partitioner two drives hda and hdb as free space | 05:18 |
| NewbieJohn | the bad news is that it didn't recreate a scd0 | 05:18 |
| wease| | hello folks | 05:19 |
| Cromag | Zyferian: well, gonna trouble shoot for it.. | 05:19 |
| soreau | Flannel: Ok, I will attempt this .. | 05:19 |
| hellppmme | im trying to install ubuntu 7.01 but when im in select partition the old partitions werent detected,how can i solve this cuz i have a created partition already and i cant see it in this installation window? anyone pls? | 05:19 |
| bluefoxx | usser: kk, tyvm | 05:19 |
| regeya | soreau: you'll need to set up your partitions manually. if I recalled what the install screen said, I could step you through it...but I don't remember, sorry :-( I did most of the setup on a work machine last time back...well, over a year ago. | 05:19 |
| amenado | NewbieJohn-> brw-rw---- 1 root cdrom 11, 0 2008-02-26 23:23 /dev/scd0 on mine | 05:19 |
| usser | bluefoxx: no problem | 05:19 |
| sweetsinse | what else can i use to manage the desktop besides nautilus or xfdesktop | 05:19 |
| soreau | regeya: I'm right on the edge of accomplishing this task .. any further ideas are welcomed | 05:20 |
| amenado | NewbieJohn-> i think if your reboot, it may recreate all those /dev/xxx thats needed..i forgot where i read that from | 05:20 |
| Odd-rationale | Does anyone know whether "The Revolution OS" (http://thelinuxway.blogspot.com/2007/10/revolution-os-video-story-of-linux.html) is available as a torrent somewhere? Thanks! | 05:20 |
| hellppmme | yoh | 05:20 |
| hellppmme | anyone care to help me? | 05:20 |
| nickrud | sweetsinse: openbox , blackbox , fluxbox , waimea . search synaptic for window manager | 05:20 |
| Flannel | soreau: Oh sorry, forgot one thing. Create a small ext3 partition as well. You need /boot to be not in LVM | 05:20 |
| zcat[1] | !piracy | Odd-rationale | 05:20 |
| NewbieJohn | okay, here's an alternative plan | 05:20 |
| sweetsinse | i am using compiz | 05:20 |
| pbjman | No one knows how? | 05:20 |
| regeya | !warez | Odd-rationale | 05:20 |
| ubotu | Odd-rationale: piracy discussion and other questionably legal practices are not welcome in the Ubuntu channels. Please take this discussion elsewhere or abstain from it altogether. This includes linking to pirated software, music and video. Also see !guidelines and !o4o | 05:20 |
| sweetsinse | in xubuntu | 05:20 |
| sweetsinse | i thought there was a separate app that drew the desktop | 05:20 |
| NewbieJohn | Can someone run a "file" command on their /dev/scd0 and tell me what it returns? | 05:20 |
| Dr_willis | I thought that video was in the gpl. :) | 05:20 |
| zcat[1] | is it? | 05:21 |
| soreau | Flannel: Hmm... | 05:21 |
| NewbieJohn | because that might just be a link to another file | 05:21 |
| zcat[1] | It probably ought to be :) | 05:21 |
| regeya | sorry, my 'torrenting movies' detector went off ;-) | 05:21 |
| Odd-rationale | zcat[1]: Oh, the video is not free? | 05:21 |
| Dr_willis | at least i THINK its under some open license | 05:21 |
| Zyferian | cromag Did you get Flash working then? | 05:21 |
| Dr_willis | I bet some googling will find out. | 05:21 |
| Frogzoo | where can I get a pirate copy of ubuntu please? | 05:21 |
| amenado | NewbieJohn-> from what i pasted it should be a block device | 05:21 |
| pbjman | lmao | 05:21 |
| Alan_M | frogzoo! LOL! | 05:21 |
| Dr_willis | Frogzoo, in #debian-warez | 05:21 |
| Cromag | Zyferian: yeah, just visit yuotube | 05:21 |
| Odd-rationale | zcat[1]: sorry. | 05:21 |
| amenado | NewbieJohn-> brw-rw---- 1 root cdrom 11, 0 2008-02-26 23:23 /dev/scd0 on mine | 05:21 |
| sweetsinse | is there a way to make thunar handle the desktop? mainly to get the rectangle when you drag | 05:21 |
| Flannel | soreau: So, make three partitions. One small one formated ext3, then two large ones with LVM type | 05:21 |
| hellppmme | yoh | 05:21 |
| Some_Person | Dr_willis: Hey! I found the X cursor: /usr/share/fonts/X11/misc/cursor.pcf.gz | 05:21 |
| soreau | Flannel: I have ext3 mount point / opts default label none but how big does the boot part need to be? | 05:22 |
| Dr_willis | Some_Person, there ya go. :) | 05:22 |
| regeya | well, holy moly, revolution os is on google video. http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=7707585592627775409 | 05:22 |
| NewbieJohn | okay, I'll try the reboot option | 05:22 |
| berlylabs | How would i get it to work using wine, I see the ubuntu thing but what file would i run on wine | 05:22 |
| NewbieJohn | Thanks! | 05:22 |
| hellppmme | which part of ubuntu installation to select the right partition to install? | 05:22 |
| Zyferian | cromag Which one did you install? | 05:22 |
| Dr_willis | Some_Person, now edit it to look like a ... err... somthing else. :) | 05:22 |
| Flannel | soreau: No, all those will be in LVM. You just want /boot off of LVM. It only has to be a few hundred megs | 05:22 |
| soreau | Flannel: I cannot find the where to set the LVM type yet | 05:22 |
| Cromag | Zyferian: visit youtube and it will do it for you. | 05:22 |
| soreau | Flannel: How many hundred? | 05:22 |
| SimplySeth | what is the environment variable for libraries ? | 05:22 |
| RedHeron | regeya: please pay attention to fair use next time. ;-) | 05:22 |
| Flannel | soreau: one should be fine, two is definately sufficient | 05:22 |
| * RedHeron gives regeya a hard time because torrent !== illegal. | 05:23 | |
| ntolo | How can i deny other users access to firefox and give access to the root only? | 05:23 |
| Bossmanbeta | isn't !== redundant? just need (1) = | 05:23 |
| amenado | SimplySeth-> env | less to see which one you need | 05:23 |
| SimplySeth | amenado: thanks | 05:23 |
| regeya | RedHeron, this is one of the times I wish moderators would turn a blind eye for a couple of minutes. | 05:23 |
| soreau | Flannel: gotcha. I will be in touch | 05:23 |
| Daisuke_Ido | ntolo: unwise (going online and especially running firefox as root) | 05:23 |
| nickrud | hah | 05:23 |
| RedHeron | Bossmanbeta: Depends on the syntax... that's PHP syntax. | 05:23 |
| Alan_M | torrent=safe unless the CONTENTS of the torrent are illegal. | 05:24 |
| Zyferian | bossmanbeta (2) = 's means logically equivalent to... for the record | 05:24 |
| regeya | RedHeron: because I would tear you a new one for assuming that I wouldn't know that. | 05:24 |
| Bossmanbeta | RedHeron, ah..... in SQL it's != | 05:24 |
| hellppmme | Flannel or Cromag help me pls? when i click Places then Computer i can see the partitions but when i double click INSTALL icon in the desktop,reaching at the Select Partition window,all i see is just /dev/sda and no more specific partition like /dev/sda5 or /dev/sda1, how can i solve this? | 05:24 |
| dangermike | Does anybody know what could be wrong when anything using the Mozilla engine seg faults galeon, epiphany, firefox versions 2.0.0.6 & 2.0.0.12 as well as version 3 all seg fault? | 05:24 |
| RedHeron | regeya: Assuming? No. Just making fun. :D | 05:24 |
| RedHeron | Bossmanbeta: Right, but in PHP, a single "=" means "store the left into the right". | 05:24 |
| soreau | Flannel: This bootable will be at mount point '/' correct? | 05:25 |
| regeya | RedHeron: I'm sick and tired of pretentious kiddies trying to act like they know more than me when I slip. Whoopsie! I assumed that because Revolution OS was on DVD, and because someone was asking for torrents of the movie, that they were pirating something. Let's make fun of the ignorant guy! | 05:25 |
| Bossmanbeta | RedHeron, :) well not being a php-person, we just spoke past each other, is all........ :-) | 05:25 |
| Flannel | soreau: bootable flags don't matter | 05:25 |
| RedHeron | regeya: permission to PM? | 05:25 |
| * regeya thanks ${DEITY} for /ignore | 05:25 | |
| Alan_M | but...thats sliding towards off topic | 05:25 |
| Alan_M | or even past off topic | 05:25 |
| Flannel | soreau: Oh, /boot is mount point /boot | 05:25 |
| RedHeron | Bossmanbeta: Yep. | 05:25 |
| regeya | RedHeron: two words, the second is 'no.' | 05:25 |
| soreau | Flannel: ok | 05:25 |
| Zyferian | cromag Dang... that Flash is buggy as all get out | 05:26 |
| RedHeron | regeya: I find your attitude hostile and unproductively unhelpful... I'm not allowed to make a joke, apparently. | 05:26 |
| ntolo | Daisuke_Idd: I mean the root should be the only one to execute the firefox command. | 05:26 |
| zcat[1] | regeya: just readling the rev-os website I can't see anything that says it's CC or otherwise available for free.. | 05:26 |
| soreau | Flannel: I have now 197.4 MB ext3 /boot. How do I partition the rest? | 05:26 |
| Alan_M | the flash fix was put in the repositories i thought zyferian | 05:26 |
| soreau | (two other drives) | 05:27 |
| Flannel | soreau: create them, make them LVM type | 05:27 |
| hellppmme | yoh | 05:27 |
| Zyferian | alan_m not sure, I'm having issues with it | 05:27 |
| soreau | Flannel: I will attempt | 05:27 |
| Cromag | Zyferian: its buggy ? i havent checked. | 05:27 |
| Alan_M | i fresh insttalled ubuntu..and enabled the restricted extras and havent had problems ;) | 05:27 |
| SimplySeth | apt and aptitude are not finding my variables | 05:27 |
| SimplySeth | my libraries* | 05:27 |
| hellppmme | can anyone see my message? | 05:27 |
| soreau | Flannel: Selected 'primary', now I do not see where to set the type 'LVM' | 05:28 |
| Flannel | hellppmme: yes | 05:28 |
| nickrud | hellppmme: yes, | 05:28 |
| hellppmme | ok | 05:28 |
| Dr_willis | hellppmme, No... err..i mean yes.. :) | 05:28 |
| Flannel | soreau: You need to edit the partition (like where you set the mount point) and change the type to LVM | 05:28 |
| soreau | ok | 05:28 |
| hellppmme | what about my previous message above? can someone help me with my problem pls? | 05:28 |
| * Alan_M thwaps Dr_willis across the wrists | 05:28 | |
| regeya | ok. license on the Revolution OS DVD is: "This DVD is for private home viewing only. It is not licensed for any other use. All Rights Reserved. Unauthorized copying, public exhibition, and broadcast are strictly prohibited.” So yes, torrenting this is PIRACY. | 05:28 |
| Zyferian | alan_m Did you just download it specially? Or what? And which repositories was it in? | 05:28 |
| Alan_M | i downloaded it using the regular repositories that shipped with the cd. | 05:29 |
| Cromag | Zyferian: going to bed now.. | 05:29 |
| zcat[1] | regeya: yeah, that's what I thought too.. I can't find any reference to it being free, anywhere.. | 05:29 |
| Cromag | Sat Mar 1 06:29:17 CET 2008 | 05:29 |
| Zyferian | cromag Night, man... good luck... be seeing ya around | 05:29 |
| Dr_willis | regeya, so you can Not watch it with your friends.. or on the bus, or anywhere else theres another person. :) | 05:29 |
| nickrud | regeya: please let it drop ... | 05:29 |
| Cromag | Zyferian: we will, nite. | 05:29 |
| soreau | Flannel: It says 'Mount point for this partition' but no LVM option now. Though it had an option for LVM groups before deleting these partitions | 05:29 |
| Alan_M | im assuming its in multiverse zyferian, but i used add/remove to get it. | 05:29 |
| Odd-rationale | Sorry, guys. I assumed that because it was about FSF/Linux that the dvd was free. I'll be more careful next time... | 05:29 |
| berlylabs | when i go to yahoo games i get This game cannot be played using your current settings. Please, try the following: Check to make sure that java is enabled in your browser. (learn more) If you do not have java installed you may download it here. To learn more about java support for browsers, visit our help pages. But if I go there and then check to see that i have java, it says i do | 05:30 |
| Flannel | soreau: no, no. You odn't change the mount point, you change the partition type. Same screen though. Don't select a mount point | 05:30 |
| Zyferian | alan_m Alright, I'll try that then | 05:30 |
| RedHeron | hellppmme: Yes. | 05:30 |
| zcat[1] | Odd-rationale: It's on youtube though... the quality won't be great :) | 05:30 |
| soreau | Flannel: I am in no hurry, I am listening to you | 05:30 |
| hellppmme | RedHeron: can you help me? | 05:30 |
| Zyferian | alan_m wait, add/remove? | 05:31 |
| FloodBot3 | !netsplit | 05:31 |
| ubotu | netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like Freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit | 05:31 |
| Daisuke_Ido | oho | 05:31 |
| zcat[1] | Oh yay.. DeCeeCee again? | 05:31 |
| Odd-rationale | Netsplits are becoming more common nowadays... | 05:31 |
| Daisuke_Ido | that netsplit probably looked a whole lot more impressive from the other side :D | 05:32 |
| dangermike | yeah | 05:32 |
| regeya | zcat[1]: I think that people assume that because it's...*sigh* wow, several people have responded to me, and I'm not supposed to respond...okay, once again, *I'm* the one called on the carpet for being OT. OK, just so I don't get banned for 24 hours again, I'll wrap it up by saying that sounds like a pretty standard copyright statement, and that people assume that somehting's free because it's about free software. so I'm | 05:32 |
| regeya | going to be a good little boy and drop it now. please leave me alon. all I did was respond to someone wanting to pirate, then repsonded to someone calling me ignorant. Pardon me for caring. :-> | 05:32 |
| soreau | Flannel: I found this option: physical volume for LVM and physical volume for RAID. Which should I chose ? | 05:32 |
| Alan_M | Daisuke_Ido, it looks the same from both sides :) | 05:32 |
| Flannel | soreau: PV for LVM | 05:32 |
| soreau | thanks | 05:32 |
| Bossmanbeta | they should have virtual IP's for IRC servers with failover ability to ensure connectivity | 05:32 |
| mneptok | soreau: you plan to use LVM? | 05:32 |
| soreau | Flannel: Bootable flag now? (on|off) | 05:32 |
| Zyferian | Afk for a while | 05:32 |
| Daisuke_Ido | Alan_M: but it doesn't. there's a whole lot more quits from the other side (900+) | 05:32 |
| soreau | mneptok: yes | 05:33 |
| RedHeron | Bossmanbeta: You're talking about adding features to IRC??? | 05:33 |
| mneptok | soreau: keep /boot *out* of the LVM | 05:33 |
| zcat[1] | regeya: I'm on your side.. I said it wasn't CC first. | 05:33 |
| Flannel | soreau: no. Modern OSs don't care about bootables | 05:33 |
| Bossmanbeta | RedHeron, lol ... who, me? | 05:33 |
| Flannel | mneptok: He is. | 05:33 |
| Alan_M | well if you want to put it that way..you are correct. | 05:33 |
| soreau | mneptok: We already got that far | 05:33 |
| mneptok | soreau: excellent | 05:33 |
| soreau | Flannel: Great | 05:33 |
| Alan_M | i am a network administrator for a small irc network, ive seen that so many times its almost funny. | 05:33 |
| Flannel | soreau: Once you've done that, go back to the volume group thing. | 05:33 |
| Bossmanbeta | RedHeron, hey if it were up to me.. I'd run them off independently off large VM's and mirror them | 05:33 |
| soreau | Flannel: ok | 05:34 |
| pbjman | How would I use linux-live to make a custom ubuntu cd? I have a laptop with ubuntu installed and everything configured the way I want it; just, linux-live is bitching at me, claiming it can't copy aufs from it's precompiled kernel they provided. | 05:34 |
| RedHeron | Bossmanbeta: That would be fun to set up. :-) | 05:34 |
| mneptok | pbjman: what is your goal? | 05:34 |
| * soreau hopes it is not frozen | 05:34 | |
| Alan_M | and...their slowly coming back. | 05:35 |
| Flannel | pbjman: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization | 05:35 |
| Bossmanbeta | RedHeron, imagine it ... virtual IP connections with fully transparent TCP stacks mirroring to VMs.... it'd be like RAIDing the IRC :-) | 05:35 |
| soreau | Flannel: I will read this msg now, sec | 05:35 |
| mneptok | pbjman: a system that's easy to resetup in case of reinstallation? | 05:35 |
| RedHeron | Bossmanbeta: I know... I was thinking about redundancy. | 05:35 |
| zcat[1] | Redundant Array of IRC Discussion? | 05:35 |
| Alan_M | Random array of irc discussion. | 05:35 |
| Alan_M | :P | 05:35 |
| Bossmanbeta | or .. we can just enjoy the netsplits like we did in the 1990s and enjoy the little bit of nostalgia we have left............. :-) | 05:36 |
| RedHeron | Bossmanbeta: But then the fun part would be tunneling protocols and obtaining a QoS guarantee for IRC relays on every continent. :-) | 05:36 |
| soreau | Flannel: Ok, it just warns that I cannot undo what i am doing ;) | 05:36 |
| nickrud | !offtopic | all (but funny anyway) | 05:36 |

| soreau | Flannel: Formating parts .... | 05:36 |
| RedHeron | Bossmanbeta: 1990s? It was happening in the 1980's, too... since I was online in 1984. | 05:36 |
| Bossmanbeta | RedHeron, bah!!!!!!!! Put Riverbed WAN (WAAS) acceleration devices at the edge routers ...end of QoS | 05:36 |
| soreau | Flannel: Shows me LVM Summary .. do you need to review this output? | 05:37 |
| jscinoz | ugh, i wish i'd ripped all my cd's as ogg, rencoding 5gb of mp3's to ogg is going to take a while :P | 05:37 |

| ubotu | #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! | 05:37 |
| RedHeron | Bossmanbeta: You're footing the bill for those WAAS devices, right? | 05:37 |
| Daisuke_Ido | jscinoz: trust me, you don't want to go from mp3 to ogg | 05:37 |
| dangermike | !debug | 05:37 |
| ubotu | For help debugging your program, please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProcedures | 05:37 |
| Odd-rationale | jscinoz: Plus encoding lossy --> lossy is not alway best... | 05:37 |
| mneptok | jscinoz: as much as i support free formats, i agree with Daisuke_Ido | 05:38 |
| Daisuke_Ido | you'll have better luck re-ripping ... what odd said | 05:38 |
| jscinoz | Daisuke_ido, i tested it out on a few before, i couldnt notice any difference | 05:38 |
| Flannel | soreau: No. You need to create one volume group using both your physical volumes. You can name it anything you'd like, but usually people just do vg00 or something similar. (VG for volume group) | 05:38 |
| * RedHeron does run an IRCd for developmental purposes on his Ubuntu box, FWIW. | 05:38 | |
| Bossmanbeta | RedHeron, ... of course... I will go to my ATM in fantasyland (where we're building this monument to IRC'dom) and withdraw the funnymoney for it.. or maybe I'll enter next year's WSOP and go all in on a 7/2 offsuit :-) | 05:38 |
| Bossmanbeta | RedHeron, ... of course... I will go to my ATM in fantasyland (where we're building this monument to IRC'dom) and withdraw the funnymoney for it.. or maybe I'll enter next year's WSOP and go all in on a 7/2 offsuit :-) | 05:38 |
| zcat[1] | jscinoz: rip them to flac .. takes a little extra diskspace but you never have to rip them again.. converting between two lossy formats gives you the worst artifacts of both | 05:38 |
| nickrud | !ot | Bossmanbeta RedHeron | 05:38 |
| ubotu | Bossmanbeta RedHeron: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! | 05:38 |
| Odd-rationale | jscinoz: I reripped all mine. This time I chose .flac | 05:38 |
| runlevel | boom shockalocka | 05:38 |
| Daisuke_Ido | whee! | 05:38 |
| Alan_M | that was FUN! | 05:39 |
| uno | can anyone help me burn the iso to a cd? | 05:39 |
| Alan_M | !iso > uno | 05:39 |
| uno | ya? | 05:39 |
| soreau | Flannel: Ok, I will create a VG named RAID xD | 05:39 |
| jscinoz | zcat[1] problem is i can only do that for the ones i actually ripped, quite a few are from torrents :P | 05:39 |
| nickrud | !iso | uno | 05:39 |
| ubotu | uno: To mount an ISO disc image, type « sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint> » - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning. | 05:39 |
| Flannel | soreau: I wouldn't name it RAID, since that could get confusing | 05:39 |
| soreau | Flannel: Damn this split | 05:39 |
| RedHeron | Heh... someone's mad at an IRC server. | 05:39 |
| uno | !iso | 05:40 |
| soreau | Flannel: Ok, then LVM then | 05:40 |
| Alan_M | dude, i hate when they freaking do their maintenance | 05:40 |
| Alan_M | drives me nuts. | 05:40 |
| zcat[1] | that or someone tripped over the wrong wire | 05:40 |
| jscinoz | someone spilt their coffee | 05:40 |
| Daisuke_Ido | soreau: I damn thee, split! | 05:40 |
| nickrud | uno: not a good factoid, sorry. You burning this in windows? ifrarecorder works well, it's free. Write it as a cd image | 05:40 |
| Daisuke_Ido | sorry, i watched the jerk yesterday | 05:40 |
| Alan_M | its probably server maintenance guys, just relax :) | 05:40 |
| Flannel | soreau: suggest vg00 or vg0 or something. Nothing too long, since ... you'll be concating these things together | 05:40 |
| Alan_M | relax and enjoy the ride :) | 05:40 |

| nickrud | uno: did you check the md5sum of your download? | 05:41 |
| soreau | (Virtual Group?) | 05:41 |
| uno | i'v made sure the md5 sum is the same | 05:41 |
| mneptok | Alan_M: please move the netadmin discussion elsewhere. | 05:41 |
| regeya | jscinoz: bad idea re-encoding mp3 -> ogg. Re-rip if you must do taht; you'll end up with files that are far lower quality than ogg provides if you rtransencode, and vorbis is about as good as faac in the quality dept. and be sure to use sound juicer, the ripper of ubuntu! (keeping it on-topic.) | 05:41 |
| uno | i'v burned the cd at 4x | 05:41 |
| uno | and 2x | 05:41 |
| Flannel | soreau: You create a volume group, that volume group is a virtual disk, as far as we're concerned. Then we'll create logical volumes ontop of that, which mimic partitions if we were doing this outside of LVM. They can be whatever sort of filesystem you like. Ubuntu uses ext3 by default. | 05:41 |
| Bossmanbeta | what's with all the offtopic police.... | 05:41 |
| jscinoz | regeya, what about mp3 > flac? | 05:41 |

| uno | ya i burn it as an image | 05:42 |
| uno | when i brows the cd it is a bunch of files | 05:42 |
| mneptok | Alan_M: last warning. | 05:43 |
| regeya | jscinoz: you'll end up with much larger files that sound remarkably like your mp3s. I'd just recommend gritting your teeth and either re-rip or keep using a non-free format. | 05:43 |
| nickrud | uno: ok. Could be you need the alternate cd, some machines won't boot the live cd | 05:43 |

| regeya | jscinoz: ultimately, it's your choice. if you transcode to vorbis, and it sounds fine to you, by all means go for it :-> | 05:44 |
| zcat[1] | TrustNoOne: it's aptly named then :) | 05:44 |
| nickrud | uno: 7.04 is not 7.10 ... | 05:44 |
| efren30 | jack-desktop:wich one is the button super? | 05:44 |
| uno | i no but should it matter? | 05:44 |
| googlingtingwana | soreau, sorry to sidetrack you here .... if LVM still works as it used to, then you can add extra volumes on the fly at a later time ... if you are having trouble getting the partitions set up you could just use the "guided LVM (not encrypted)" option which will configure all of one of your drives | 05:44 |
| regeya | TrustNoOne: when I got banned for a day, it was for complaining about the floodbot. | 05:44 |

(Just like 'screen' but for X apps) There's an old-old app called 'xmove' (last updated 1997) but it's very buggy and doesn't work.

| nickrud | yao_ziyuan: I've had success on some streams with the mozilla-mplayer plugin, with the w32codecs | 05:50 |
| Flannel | soreau: it's /dev/mapper/[VG]-[LV], or at least is in Dapper. It'll probably just show up as UUIDs in more recent versions | 05:50 |
| soreau | Flannel: You do not use even edgy eft, feisty fawn or dare i say gutsy? | 05:51 |

| googlingtingwana | Zoiks, some, for raid-1 (mirror) | 05:57 |
| Flannel | mikesa81: You don't have tohave separate installs for that. | 05:57 |
| mikesa81 | i wanted to keep them physically seperated | 05:57 |
| vrkhans | thansk | 05:57 |
| hdevalence | mikesa81: don't think so | 05:57 |

| googlingtingwana | Zoiks, do you have to wait for it to finish before trying to format it, maybe? | 06:08 |
| mikesa81 | hdevalence: still huh? i keep hearing them talk about stability on the dot... i tried a live cd as soon as it was available, it was a live cd so.... i just wanted to poke around. | 06:08 |
| Bossmanbeta | vrkhans, go to http://pastebin.com/ for details | 06:08 |
| regeya | actually I'm already ignoring floodbot notices...huh. | 06:08 |
| Flannel | soreau: LVM doesn't have any notion of primary or logical. Swap can be on the LVM, yes. | 06:08 |
| * regeya gives up and goes to bed. | 06:08 | |
| tehCurtis | anyone? | 06:08 |
| * mneptok sets mode +r bed | 06:08 | |
| Sumdumguy | whats the best/most widly used c compiler i should use/install ? | 06:08 |
| * mneptok sets mode -r bed | 06:08 | |
| * mneptok sets mode -r 2,5 bed | 06:08 | |
| nickrud | flood mneptok | 06:09 |
| mikesa81 | nickrud: ok, i did that when setting up my /home, similar procedure i imagine, but do you know where i could find some info on what the command would look like? | 06:09 |
| Sumdumguy | how do you set modes ? | 06:09 |
| hellppmme | Gokee2: im on live cd now my /dev/sda is using dual boot one is my ubuntu old and my winxp, now ive installed winxp and when i boot the laptop it will boot the winxp but no more grub to select which OS to boot,im planning to reinstall ubuntu as well but when im in install program at Preparing Partition i cant see the different partitions but only /dev/sda,how can i select the right partition for my ubuntu then? | 06:09 |
| soreau | Flannel: I set one partition in LVM group and then the rest of the space becomes labeled as 'unusable' (same if I define the '/' first) | 06:09 |
| mneptok | nickrud++ | 06:09 |
| nickrud | Mikelevel: which one? | 06:09 |
| regeya | bwahaha | 06:09 |
| hdevalence | mikesa81: well, I'm using the trunk right now... it's very nice, but unstable a\nd a bit patchy. Plasma in 4.0 is very bad and so is Kontact. The rest is probably acceptable | 06:09 |
| nel | quit | 06:09 |
| nel | #quit | 06:10 |
| Flannel | soreau: You're talking about logical volumes, right? | 06:10 |
| soreau | yes | 06:10 |
| mneptok | nel: /quit | 06:10 |
| Zoiks | googlingtingwana: it says you dont have to in all the guides, however I normally wait and let it finish anyway | 06:10 |
| berlylabs | how do people do all these action things | 06:10 |
| mikesa81 | hdevalence: would it be a bad idea to allow those buggy apps access to my /home? | 06:10 |
| mneptok | berlylabs: /me | 06:10 |
| Flannel | soreau: You shouldn't have any problem creating more than one in a volume group | 06:10 |
| regeya | please, nobody get kickbanned over my setting mode +sleep...funny, but don't overdo it. the ops here have their hands full as it is, and I'm being honest and genuine in that. y'all have a lot to deal with on the weekend and I salute you. now stop picking on me j/k | 06:10 |
| berlylabs | sleep | 06:10 |
| berlylabs | hmm | 06:10 |
| soreau | Flannel: hmm .. | 06:10 |
| * soreau tries | 06:11 | |
| * berlylabs sigh | 06:11 | |
| berlylabs | oh got it | 06:11 |
| Sumdumguy | whats the best/most widly used c compiler i should use/install ? | 06:11 |
| hdevalence | Sumdumguy: gcc | 06:11 |
| mneptok | Sumdumguy: gcc | 06:11 |
| Gokee2 | hellppmme, I always use the manual configure the partition table | 06:11 |
| Sumdumguy | thanks | 06:11 |
| googlingtingwana | Zoiks, new territory for me, but I'm going off to set up a raid-5 set for the first time - what filesystem are you planning to put on it? | 06:11 |
| mneptok | Sumdumguy: sudo apt-get install build-essential | 06:11 |
| Sumdumguy | thanks again | 06:11 |
| Gokee2 | hellppmme, If you do that you get a table of all yout partitions and get to choose where to put the ubuntu install | 06:12 |
| * berlylabs still trying to get help so she can play yahoo games | 06:12 | |
| hellppmme | Gokee2: yes i chose manual configure but still i can ony see /dev/sda and not that partition of my installed winxp which is /dev/sda5 and my oldubuntu which is /dev/sda1 are not there | 06:12 |
| berlylabs | anyone know how to run IE on wine | 06:12 |
| usser | !ies4linux | 06:13 |
| ubotu | ies4linux is a script that quickly and effortlessly helps you install 3 versions of IE in Wine. Information can be found at http://www.tatanka.com.br/ies4linux/page/Main_Page including instructions specifically for Ubuntu. ies4linux is aimed at web designers and ie-only sites, so please, don’t use any of the IEs to navigate! Use Firefox! | 06:13 |
| hdevalence | mikesa81: I don't think there'll be a problem. Even if something did happen, you could recover from your regular backups, right? :D In any case, I don't think anything bad would happen | 06:13 |
| berlylabs | ty | 06:13 |

| dangermike | monte do you know the dev name? | 06:14 |
| Zoiks | monte: fdisk -l | 06:14 |
| dangermike | dmesg if you dont | 06:14 |
| Zoiks | which drive is it | 06:14 |
| tehCurtis | how do i uninstall something? | 06:14 |
| mikesa81 | hdevalence: yeh.. :) i've been meaning to get that set up.. :) any suggestions for some automatic backup? | 06:14 |
| tehCurtis | i installed nginx and want to remove it | 06:14 |
| dangermike | tehCurtis sudo apt-get remove xxx | 06:14 |
| Gokee2 | hellppmme, Hmmm you got windows to install on sda5? I have not been able to make it install on anything other then part 1. I have not tried in many years though. I don`t know why your other ones are not listed. Try cfdisk /dev/sda at a command line and see if that has all your parts | 06:14 |
| googlingtingwana | Zoiks, I've used reiserfs for years with no problems and good performance - I'm about to give raid-5 a try (wonders of vmware) | 06:15 |
| nickrud | tehCurtis: sudo apt-get remove pkg | 06:15 |
| tehCurtis | sweet thanks | 06:15 |
| op305 | noob here tryin to install ubuntu on pc | 06:15 |
| op305 | 1st where to get | 06:15 |
| op305 | ? | 06:15 |
| Gnutz | ubuntu.com | 06:15 |
| Bossmanbeta | mikesa81, rsync is on of the best backup tools out there | 06:15 |
| dangermike | ... | 06:15 |
| nickrud | op305: releases.ubuntu.com/7.10 , use the torrent if possible | 06:15 |
| soreau | Flannel: Basically, I need to create now a logical partition. But it wont let me undo the changes I have made or edit anything. Should I reboot it and try again? | 06:15 |
| CoolBreeze | hey all, i have a security question on vnc: i use a vnc viewer to remote to my ubuntu desktop from my laptop (win xp) in the same house. I port forwarded my router (port 5900) so that i could connect from my work as well. When i got home tonight I noticed there were x2 other users connected and i cut them off right away. How is this possible? I set it so that you have to enter an 8 character pw to take control when you remote i | 06:16 |
| mikesa81 | Bossmanbeta: thanks. i could schedule it | 06:16 |
| mikesa81 | ? | 06:16 |
| hdevalence | mikesa81: I use rsync, though I use it to do simple things such as "rsync -aPv /home/harry/ /mnt/voyager6/backup/" | 06:16 |
| Bossmanbeta | mikesa81, yep | 06:16 |
| Gnutz | Anyone know why my nfs server would be having connection timeouts? | 06:16 |
| monte | dangermike: i have no clue i no when i put it in my laptop that it works course it is windows lol but i am trying to move files | 06:16 |
| Dr_willis | CoolBreeze, using vnc over the internet without a ssh tunnle is NOT a good idea. | 06:16 |
| monte | zoiks: wat is that | 06:17 |
| CoolBreeze | even with a pw enabled? | 06:17 |
| Sumdumguy | mneptok, thanks again :) I have a new server install, and am missing a LOT of stuff is there a lib package i should install ? | 06:17 |
| Bossmanbeta | CoolBreeze, first off... never fwd a port for VNC directly............... SSH to your box (on a different port than the default port) and use the -L option is ssh to tunnel VNC encrypted and securely to your box... | 06:17 |
| Dr_willis | CoolBreeze, well.. you had 2 other users connected.. :) so logicially YES a password is not enough security | 06:17 |
| dangermike | monte run dmesg it should be sda/sdb etc | 06:17 |
| hdevalence | mikesa81: I had it as a cron job which would fail silently if my external drive was not connected | 06:17 |
| mikesa81 | hdevalence:thanks | 06:17 |
| Zoiks | googlingtingwana: yeah, i have thought about trying others...just was not sure on compatibility and stability and such | 06:17 |
| mikesa81 | Bossmanbeta:thanks | 06:18 |
| Gnutz | I've heard VNC passwords are also transmitted as plain text. Is that right? | 06:18 |
| Dr_willis | CoolBreeze, time to be viruschecking and possibially reinstalling that windows box. | 06:18 |
| CoolBreeze | guys, thanks for the tips. i will apply this logic right away. | 06:18 |
| mikesa81 | hdevalence:cron? | 06:18 |
| Bossmanbeta | CoolBreeze, also..... on sshd_config DISABLE the permit root login option (set it to 'no') to prevent a hack into ssh and gaining ROOT | 06:18 |
| berlylabs | /home/kimberly/.ies4linux/downloads/mfc42.cab: No such file or directory | 06:18 |
| berlylabs | An error occured when trying to cabextract some files. | 06:18 |
| hdevalence | mikesa81: kinda | 06:18 |
| monte | dangermike: how do i do that | 06:18 |
| Bossmanbeta | CoolBreeze, you can also configure SSHD to only accept connections from specific IPs to further prevent hack attempts | 06:18 |
| dangermike | monte open terminal | 06:18 |
| dangermike | monte and type in dmesg then press enter | 06:19 |
| hdevalence | mikesa81: I made a custom wrapper script that ran it | 06:19 |
| Gnutz | Any Mac users in here? I'm trying to set up my Ubuntu machine as a backup device for Time Machine, but so far no luck. Can't tell if it's a client or server issue. | 06:19 |
| Bossmanbeta | CoolBreeze, while you're at it... set up a honeypot and and then get their IPs and write their ISP about their evil doings | 06:19 |
| monte | dangermike: it says cannot be found | 06:20 |
| storm-ze1 | I need some help configuring firestarter for samba. I'm pretty sure it's firewall related, because when I drop it (which I later determined I don't really want to do again), it works like a charm... But adding the networks to "allow connections from host" or the ports to "Allow service" section (with or without network restriction) doesn't work. | 06:21 |
| dangermike | monte dmesg its there trust me | 06:21 |
| op305 | thnx nickrud gnutz | 06:21 |
| tehCurtis | ack! the uninstall failed! | 06:21 |
| tehCurtis | Stopping nginx: invoke-rc.d: initscript nginx, action "stop" failed. | 06:21 |
| monte | dangermike: i put a q sorry lol | 06:21 |
| tehCurtis | did i do something wrong? | 06:21 |
| dangermike | tehCurtis what happened | 06:21 |
| tehCurtis | dpkg: error processing nginx (--remove): | 06:21 |
| tehCurtis | then | 06:21 |
| tehCurtis | eventually | 06:22 |

| monte | dangermike: i have it up | 06:22 |
| Bossmanbeta | anyone aware of a way of detaching a remote X application running via 'ssh -Y' for re-attaching later? (Just like 'screen' but for X apps) There's an old-old app called 'xmove' (last updated 1997) but it's very buggy and doesn't work. VNC and NX are whole-desktop solutions and doesn't work well when I want to run local & remote apps on a unified local desktop. | 06:22 |
| nickrud | tehCurtis: probably not, unless you deleted /etc/nginx (or whatever the config file is located) | 06:22 |
| Dr_willis | Bossmanbeta, try asking in ##linux :) | 06:22 |
| dangermike | monte you should have a usb section at the bottom copy the last 10 or so lines and PM them to me | 06:22 |
| tehCurtis | i didn't manually removing anything yet | 06:22 |
| Bossmanbeta | Dr_willis, sure... beggars can't be choosers :-) | 06:22 |
| hellppmme | Gokee2_: and this is something cuz when i click PLaces then Computer i can see the partitions | 06:22 |
| dangermike | tehCurtis you may want to try opening synaptics and removing from there | 06:23 |
| tehCurtis | i just think i have more than one install so i was trying to remove the one i added via apt | 06:23 |
| tehCurtis | k | 06:23 |
| nickrud | tehCurtis: put up on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org the complete error | 06:23 |
| Dr_willis | Bossmanbeta, id like to see how it could be done :) | 06:23 |
| Bossmanbeta | Dr_willis, but I'll continue to ask at regular intervals.... you never know when master yoda of the ssh-clan of the clan McCloud should ever waltz in :) | 06:23 |

| mikesa81 | hdevalence: running trunk, does that update your machine pretty much daily? or you have to checkout from svn everytime and build everytime you want to update? | 06:24 |
| hellppmme | im sorry my sda1 is my winxp and my sda5 is my linux | 06:24 |
| Bossmanbeta | Perhaps I should start in #Gentoo ... all those compiler-geeks | 06:24 |
| Gokee2_ | hellppmme, Hmm then I don`t know why they would be missing from the installer | 06:24 |
| nickrud | tehCurtis: now the contents of /var/lib/dpkg/info/nginx.prerm | 06:24 |
| hellppmme | bugs perhaps | 06:24 |
| nickrud | tehCurtis: that's the script that's failing | 06:24 |
| hellppmme | let me restart my laptop | 06:24 |

| nickrud | tehCurtis: /home/<you> , I'm assuming you compiled there | 07:08 |
| tehCurtis | ah, nothing in there | 07:08 |
| tehCurtis | some in etc/, some in usr/local | 07:08 |
| tehCurtis | is there anyway to remove all that locate finds? | 07:09 |
| nickrud | tehCurtis: the --purge removed any in /etc that apt knew about, and your /usr/local is not managed by apt. So remove them all | 07:09 |
| tehCurtis | k | 07:09 |
| tehCurtis | i'll also remove in var/lib and var/log | 07:10 |

| hp | what is the alternative to ubuntu? my laptop can't install it | 07:11 |
| mneptok | tehCurtis: you want to get rid of the database that the "locate" command uses? | 07:11 |
| mneptok | tehCurtis: the db that "updatedb" actually updates? | 07:12 |
| tehCurtis | or all the results that come up when i do "locate nginx" | 07:12 |
| nickrud | mneptok: no, he's removing a manual install of nginx | 07:12 |
| Dr_willis | monte, i would guess you are yusing the wrong device name then. :) | 07:12 |
| mneptok | tehCurtis: ah. not the same. | 07:12 |
| tehCurtis | good to know | 07:12 |
| monte | dr_willis: give me the codes exact way to put them in the terminal plz | 07:13 |
| Dr_willis | monte, what IS the device name you are trying to mount? i dont have ESP :) | 07:13 |
| Dr_willis | monte, ' sudo mount /dev/YOURDEVICENAME /media/YourMountPoint ' is the basics of it all. | 07:14 |

| Pwhdavey | thank you so much, Daisuke | 07:17 |
| Pwhdavey | but for some reason | 07:17 |

| Daisuke_Ido | Pwhdavey: honestly, for tricky issues, irc's the way to go. a lot of the devs hang out here (i'm not one, not by a long shot), and you generally get quicker one-on-one help | 07:20 |
| BillyJoe | ChaosParser: is there a webpage discribing the kinda | 07:20 |
| ChaosParser | BillyJoe: You could create an image of the xp install and run THAT in vbox as a virtual machine. But the changes would be saved to that, not the actual partition. | 07:20 |
| ChaosParser | BillyJoe: Not really, not to my knowledge. | 07:20 |
| monte | dr_willis: it says something about the ntfs is marked to be in use | 07:21 |

| Dr_willis | monte, if windows crashes and the ntfs filesystem is flagged as needing checked - the ntfs-3g drivers wont let it get mounted. | 07:21 |
| ChaosParser | monte: Did you shutdown windows wrong? | 07:21 |
| tehCurtis | nickrud: eff it, i'll just use what i get from apt | 07:21 |
| ChaosParser | monte: If so, you need to reboot, shutdown properly and go back into ubuntu | 07:22 |
| tehCurtis | thanks for all the help | 07:22 |
| nickrud | tehCurtis: generally a sane idea. See you around | 07:22 |
| tehCurtis | it was a good learning experience | 07:22 |
| tehCurtis | :) | 07:22 |
| Dr_willis | monte, You may want to boot to windows and let it scan the filesystem a few times to verify its good. and then shutdown properly in windows.. and check the various linux/ntfs/ntfs-3g guides on how to properly mount a ntfs-filesystem under linux. | 07:22 |
| senselab | hey anyone use rosegarden here? | 07:22 |
| monte | Chaosparser: i dont daul boot | 07:22 |
| BillyJoe | No I have not gotten it to boot up yet at all. | 07:22 |
| senselab | or any audio programs | 07:22 |
| ChaosParser | monte: Okay, then in what context are we talking about an NTFS partition? | 07:23 |
| ChaosParser | monte: You can force it to mount, but it might screw up the file system. | 07:23 |
| monte | Chaosparser: thats wat it says when i try to mount it through the terminal | 07:24 |
| monte | chaosParser: so if i force mount it might screw up all the data on the external hardrive | 07:24 |
| ChaosParser | monte: Okay, what is the partition FOR? is it just a random data partition, or? | 07:24 |
| ChaosParser | monte: Do you have a windows computer? | 07:24 |
| ChaosParser | monte: You need to connect it to windows and then 'safely remove hardware', | 07:25 |
| monte | Chaosparser: yea i have a windows computer | 07:25 |
| ChaosParser | monte: That should resolve it without risking damage to the FS. | 07:25 |

| Gekkomon | i rebooted my computer and i forgot the steps to set up the hard drive to install ubuntu again | 07:46 |
| ere4si | Lycus, select the recovery option at the grub prompt | 07:46 |
| Lycus | ok in command line | 07:46 |
| friedtofu | Lycus - i believe that is recovery mode - | 07:46 |
| Lycus | how can I disable restricted drivers | 07:46 |
| Lycus | was just a matter of adding -s to boot options =x | 07:46 |
| friedtofu | i think you can remove it.. | 07:46 |
| ronnie | Gekkomon: live CD? | 07:46 |
| Gekkomon | yea | 07:46 |
| ere4si | Lycus, dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 07:46 |
| Lycus | friedtofu: ? | 07:46 |
| friedtofu | as in uninstalling the restricted drivers | 07:47 |
| ronnie | Gekkomon: into the bios setting to let your machine run cdrom to boot time first | 07:47 |
| Gekkomon | im on it right now | 07:47 |
| mneptok | cyphase: AFAICT, the only really supported N chipset is Intel's 4965. there are Mini PCI Express cards, and you'd need an adapter for most PCI-E desktops | 07:47 |
| Arelis | Hi all. I downloaded something with wget (for a part) to the wrong location, and then moved it to another location, and want the download to continue. But it starts all over again. | 07:48 |
| Arelis | how can i make it continue? | 07:48 |
| tehCurtis | added export PATH=/usr/local/nginx/sbin:$PATH to my etc/profile | 07:48 |
| === jrc_ is now known as johnC | ||
| tehCurtis | but nginx -v still doesn't work! | 07:48 |
| Benji2 | Arelis, wget -c | 07:48 |
| ronnie | cool | 07:49 |
| ronnie | i don't know wget have suck function | 07:49 |
| tehCurtis | do i have to restart for changes to my etc/profile to take effect? | 07:49 |
| Arelis | Benji2: thanks :) | 07:49 |
| ronnie | :) | 07:49 |
| Gekkomon | all i need help with is to repartition the hard drive | 07:50 |
| Benji2 | thatsPipe, to reload some conf file under bash, juste "source the_file" (or . the_file) | 07:51 |
| Benji2 | dunno if it was your question, till ;-) | 07:51 |
| === ka2u is now known as ka2zzzz | ||
| Gekkomon | can someone help me one on one in a private chat | 07:53 |
| LiraNuna | Gekkomon, what's the problem with the repartitioning? | 07:53 |
| Gekkomon | i forgot how to do it | 07:54 |
| LiraNuna | from live cd, use System -> Admin -> Disk Partitioner | 07:54 |
| LiraNuna | I think the GUI is pretty straight forward.. | 07:54 |
| binaries-APP | Gekkomon: you should go to you partitioning tool to find ouit what your partition sheme is, tipicly to install, unix will require a partition called "/" < this slash means root. also for better performance your system should also have a partion called swap < this acts as ram | 07:54 |
| Benji2 | there exists some "gparted" tools (on GUI).. on command-line, fdisk | 07:55 |
| Gekkomon | that what i forgot how to make | 07:55 |
| LiraNuna | Gekkomon, just use the guided partitioner from the install | 07:56 |
| xinel | anybody know of a program where i can transfer files between hard drives on my pc that allows me to start, stop, pause, error check the transfers? | 07:56 |
| Lycus | Which kernel is best to use in a dual core 64bit machine? | 07:57 |
| binaries-APP | Gekkomon: okay we can do this, can you tell us what other systems you would like to have on your computer ? would you like for ubuntu to be the first or second? | 07:57 |
| densone | xinel, rsync? | 07:57 |
| binaries-APP | amd64 | 07:57 |
| xinel | i thought rsync was for making sure hard drives where copied to eachother and up to date? | 07:58 |
| densone | Lycus, amd64 work well for me on dual core opteron and quad core intel | 07:58 |
| ronnie | Gekkomon: just take a knife to partitionment your HD...good jub.. | 07:58 |
| densone | xinel, yeah it would be good for syncing things up. | 07:58 |
| densone | xinel, what about scp? | 07:58 |
| xinel | isn't scp for transfering between networked pc's | 07:59 |
| LiraNuna | scp is part of ssh | 07:59 |
| LiraNuna | secure copy | 07:59 |
| xinel | i know | 07:59 |
| xinel | i want like a copy tool but with more options | 08:00 |
| Lycus | Gnash supports youtube now, right? | 08:00 |
| xinel | both the hard drives are in my pc | 08:00 |
| LiraNuna | xinel, like what? | 08:00 |
| densone | xinel, ok now I see , sorry. Im a server guy. Always thinking in server land | 08:00 |
| _Oz_ | !wingrub | 08:00 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about wingrub - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 08:00 |

| ubotu | grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto | 08:00 |
| xinel | kinda like a getright but for linux | 08:00 |
| LiraNuna | wtf is getright | 08:00 |
| Lycus | also, densone, does nvidia have restricted drivers for 64bit? | 08:00 |
| Dr_willis | an old download manager tool. | 08:00 |
| LiraNuna | hahaha | 08:01 |
| Dr_willis | used it years ago on dialup | 08:01 |
| LiraNuna | what's wrong with wget :P | 08:01 |
| xinel | :/ | 08:01 |
| LiraNuna | xinel, or just a web browser <_< | 08:01 |
| * xinel bangs head against desk | 08:01 | |
| densone | Lycus, never used anything other than a console | 08:01 |
| Dr_willis | It could actually 'search' for other mirrors of the file to get the same file from different sites at faster speed. :) i recall. | 08:01 |
| Lycus | Oh :-P | 08:01 |
| densone | Lycus, Mainly dell servers, and Rackable Server | 08:01 |
| Lycus | I see. | 08:02 |
| densone | I would love to run a 64 bit desktop though for shits and giggles | 08:02 |
| b_ecca | hello, just new to ubuntu, i removed from panel the wireless network monitor, now i cant connect to other networks :-( | 08:02 |
| b_ecca | how do i get it back? | 08:02 |
| LiraNuna | densone, 64bit will only give you pain | 08:03 |
| LiraNuna | s/give/cause/ | 08:03 |
| LiraNuna | and no speed increase | 08:03 |
| xinel | yeah ive only experienced pain with 64bit | 08:03 |
| xinel | 32 bit ftw | 08:03 |
| Benji2 | right click / add applet , or something like that ? | 08:03 |
| Benji2 | (the applet name is "network manager") | 08:03 |
| densone | LiraNuna, yeah, I can only imagine, though no my servers. I love it | 08:03 |
| xinel | that would have worked Benji2 but she's long gone :( | 08:04 |
| Benji2 | haha ;) | 08:04 |
| densone | Only issue I really had with 64bit was Xen | 08:04 |
| LiraNuna | the whole idea of 64bit is 'numbers sell' :) | 08:04 |

| karuna_bdc | is there a way to update ubuntu in terminal? | 08:04 |
| RiPPeR666 | hi there | 08:04 |
| xinel | apt-get | 08:04 |
| LiraNuna | karuna_bdc, sudo apt-get update | 08:04 |
| densone | apt-get | 08:04 |
| xinel | sudo apt-get update | 08:05 |
| xinel | sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 08:05 |
| densone | whats up with all the love I have been hearing for Gentoo. Anyone here try it? | 08:05 |
| Daisuke_Ido | LiraNuna: unless of course you do any heavy video editing or have more than 4gb ram... in those instances, 64 bit would be a plus. for the most part though, you're right | 08:05 |
| karuna_bdc | LiraNuna: cool thx, i hate updating in synaptic, SO SLOW | 08:05 |
| xinel | meh ive tried gentoo before | 08:06 |
| densone | All of my systems are all 16+ GB RAM | 08:06 |
| xinel | but it takes forever to install things | 08:06 |
| Daisuke_Ido | densone: there's a saying. go gentoo if you want to work ON your pc, use ubuntu if you want to work WITH your pc. | 08:06 |
| LiraNuna | karuna_bdc, I don't like synaptic myself | 08:06 |
| RiPPeR666 | hi everyone ive been havin alot of troble intalling ubuntu 7.10. same problem with drivers nv and nvidia after splash screen i loose the signal to my monitor | 08:06 |
| LiraNuna | I always use apt-get install <> and apt-cache < temrs> myself | 08:06 |
| densone | Haha , Nice | 08:06 |
| LiraNuna | RiPPeR666, let me guess, 8800GT? | 08:07 |
| RiPPeR666 | 7800 gt | 08:07 |
| xsavior | anyone here using a dell e1505 | 08:07 |
| densone | A lot of the guys I know in the Bay Area have been preaching Gentoo. I haven't seen a reason to try it yet | 08:07 |
| LiraNuna | RiPPeR666, get the newest nvidia drivers from their site | 08:07 |
| RiPPeR666 | sli got 2 of them in here | 08:07 |
| LiraNuna | the ones in the repos are ooooooooold and buggy | 08:07 |
| xsavior | can't seem to get my dell 355 bluetooth to work | 08:07 |
| Stonekeeper | hi there. does anyone have dual soundcards in their desktops? Gutsy is randomly choosing which card to use on bootup. | 08:07 |
| RiPPeR666 | wouldnt apt-get install nvidia-glx-new work | 08:08 |
| LiraNuna | Stonekeeper, I got quad SPUs (don't ask why). you can select them with system->admin->sound & multimedia | 08:08 |
| LiraNuna | RiPPeR666, the 'new' isn't erally new | 08:08 |
| LiraNuna | *really | 08:08 |
| Benji2 | densone, Gentoo is for very experienced user. Period. Otherwise, people install it, then complain because it lacks lots of stuffs they failed/didn't know ton install | 08:08 |
| Les_Caesars | is there a way I can use the ALT keycodes? | 08:09 |
| binaries-APP | Stonekeeper: can set that under system>preferancnes>sound | 08:09 |
| xinel | also it takes a long time to install anything :P | 08:09 |
| Les_Caesars | I need to make umlauts | 08:09 |
| Les_Caesars | and using the special character palette by mouse is too time consuming | 08:09 |
| Benji2 | what chars do you want to input ? | 08:09 |
| densone | Benji2, thats why I love the Ubuntu Server builds. They are so minimal. I am a 100% server guy. | 08:09 |
| RiPPeR666 | ok im still realy new at linux so how would i go by installing these drivers in terminal | 08:09 |
| LiraNuna | Les_Caesars, well, there USED to be a way using SHIFT+CTRL+<CODE> | 08:10 |
| xsavior | okay guess no help thanks | 08:10 |
| LiraNuna | but it seemed to have vanished since 6.10 | 08:10 |
| LiraNuna | go figure :( | 08:10 |
| xinel | LiraNuna: i always wondered what happened to it | 08:10 |
| xinel | :/ | 08:10 |
| Les_Caesars | darn. | 08:10 |
| LiraNuna | :( | 08:10 |
| LiraNuna | I used to abuse UTF so much | 08:11 |
| Benji2 | out of curiosity, which char did you need this for ? | 08:11 |
| LiraNuna | you can still use the Char Map utility | 08:11 |
| blade | hi guys | 08:12 |
| LiraNuna | applications -> accessories -> char map | 08:12 |
| LiraNuna | though it's not as fast as inline typing | 08:12 |
| xsavior | has anyone gotten dell bluetooth 355 to work | 08:12 |
| LiraNuna | xsavior, why don't you ask google | 08:12 |
| blade | i am implemating a custom tcp/ip pile and i have a probleme with the checksum | 08:13 |
| blade | can someone tell me about a good packet genarator ? | 08:13 |
| xinel | i only came in here because the ubuntuforums and google failed me :( | 08:13 |
| Arelis | Guys i'm following the guide for installing Ubuntu on an USB stick with persistency but the files won't fit. Must i install them in /media/ubuntu or /media/casper-rw ?? | 08:13 |
| * xinel shakes fist into the sky | 08:13 | |
| LiraNuna | Arelis, what's your drive capacitY? | 08:13 |
| _Oz_ | I have a 40gb HD with two partitions -- one for ubuntu and one for whatever. the other one I will never use; I want to merge the two together. how can I do this? | 08:13 |
| xsavior | I did google yahoo and been to every site but i don't seem to get it to work | 08:13 |
| Arelis | LiraNuna: 4GB | 08:13 |
| LiraNuna | Arelis, minimum is 1GB | 08:13 |
| LiraNuna | oh :S | 08:13 |
| Arelis | but the guide told me i had to make the partition 750MB | 08:14 |
| LiraNuna | Arelis, strange, I got it fit in 1GB | 08:14 |
| Dr_willis | _Oz_, delete the 2nd expand the first with gparted live cd. Is one way | 08:14 |
| jabmooli | hi....i installed ubuntu a week back and it's working great! | 08:14 |
| jabmooli | today i visited gnome-look.org....and it seems interesting. | 08:14 |
| Arelis | LiraNuna: i had to make the partition 750MB said the guide, but it's 720MB. | 08:14 |
| LiraNuna | jabmooli, great! now help others enjoy it :) | 08:14 |
| Stonekeeper | LiraNuna: i do select which crad that way. It is *always* set to my M-Audio card. However, on boot, ubuntu randomly chooses between that and my onboard sound. | 08:14 |
| Arelis | LiraNuna: should i put it on /media/ubuntu (the 750MB thing) or /media/casper-rw ?? | 08:14 |
| jabmooli | but i can't understand how to use the themes available there...! | 08:14 |
| XmatriX | the themes u must download | 08:15 |
| jabmooli | there's no documentation also... | 08:15 |
| LiraNuna | Stonekeeper, weird, I suggest you ask in the forums | 08:15 |
| Stonekeeper | it seems that it ignored the card set in the system prefs menu | 08:15 |
| XmatriX | u can get artmanager in the synaptic | 08:15 |
| _Oz_ | Dr_willis: must I do it with the livecd? | 08:15 |
| XmatriX | and browse and install themes from there | 08:15 |
| LiraNuna | Arelis, the casper-rw is for the kernel | 08:15 |
| _Oz_ | Dr_willis: doesn't the ubuntu 7.10 cd have gparted on it? I could use that, no? | 08:15 |
| Stonekeeper | I've searched the forums :/ | 08:15 |
| jabmooli | yes, i downloaded them, the tar.gz files | 08:15 |
| Arelis | LiraNuna: so it's for syslinux etc etc? | 08:15 |
| XmatriX | then go to your prefrences and you can customize your theme | 08:15 |
| LiraNuna | Arelis, yes | 08:15 |
| jabmooli | and opened the theme manager | 08:15 |
| Arelis | LiraNuna: all the files from the livecd? | 08:15 |
| Dr_willis | _Oz_, you cant resize a partition that you got mounted.. no idea whats on the ubuntu cd. I use a gparted-livecd normally. Try it and see. | 08:15 |
| Arelis | LiraNuna: because i've been copying it to /media/ubuntu | 08:15 |
| LiraNuna | the 750MB one is /media/ubuntu | 08:15 |
| XmatriX | go to appaerance | 08:15 |
| XmatriX | and click install | 08:16 |
| Arelis | LiraNuna: so that was the wrong one? | 08:16 |
| jabmooli | but for some of the files it says," they are not valid files" | 08:16 |
| _Oz_ | Dr_willis: where can I get/create a gparted livecd? | 08:16 |
| _Oz_ | !gparted | 08:16 |
| ubotu | GParted is a !GUI partitioning program. Type « sudo apt-get install gparted » in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted-livecd.tuxfamily.org/ | 08:16 |
| _Oz_ | never mind | 08:16 |
| _Oz_ | :) | 08:16 |
| LiraNuna | Arelis, it worked fine here, just my NEW motherboard doesn't support USB boot <_< | 08:16 |
| densone | Anyone here ever install ubuntu server on a dell array with raid10? | 08:16 |
| XmatriX | hm im not to sure | 08:16 |
| Dr_willis | _Oz_, a new version was just released today. Saw it on disrtowatch web site | 08:16 |
| XmatriX | most of the themes that ive been downloading work | 08:16 |
| XmatriX | im not to experienced at ubuntu | 08:16 |
| Arelis | LiraNuna: that sucks for you.. so i need to copy it to casper-rw and NOT /media/ubuntu ?? | 08:16 |
| XmatriX | mayber an expert user can help you out with that one | 08:17 |
| _Oz_ | thanks dr | 08:17 |
| _Oz_ | thanks Dr_willis | 08:17 |
| LiraNuna | Arelis, casper-rw is for the kernel | 08:17 |
| jabmooli | so where should i go for help...or any webpage suggestion for that | 08:17 |
| Arelis | LiraNuna: i thought it was for saving data | 08:17 |

| XmatriX | is there a download channel | 08:23 |
| XmatriX | for aps and stuff | 08:24 |
| XmatriX | ? | 08:24 |
| Dr_willis | XmatriX, why would you need that? | 08:24 |
| RiPPeR666 | sry to bother you guys but how after i dowdload the new nvidia drivers from the site how doi install them in termanal and can i same the drivers on usb and access them in terminal | 08:24 |
| wols_ | why would there? just use synaptic | 08:24 |
| Dr_willis | XmatriX, and ubotu is a bot. not a person | 08:24 |
| XmatriX | i kno | 08:24 |
| XmatriX | it just a funyn name | 08:24 |
| wols_ | RiPPeR666: ubuntu comes with perfectly find nvidia drivers | 08:24 |
| XmatriX | so theres no download channel? | 08:24 |
| Dr_willis | RiPPeR666, its best to use the restricted-manager tool to install the dirvers. NOT downloading them from the site. | 08:24 |
| Dr_willis | XmatriX, Theres no need for one. | 08:24 |
| wols_ | XmatriX: downloading WHAT? | 08:24 |
| XmatriX | or file sharing channel? | 08:24 |
| wols_ | !nvidia | RiPPeR666 | 08:25 |

| RiPPeR666 | im tring dude been exploing all nite kinda fun | 08:29 |
| wols_ | just like windows canreplace linux for some | 08:29 |
| RiPPeR666 | found out how to turn my sli on by messing around the last hour | 08:29 |
| ompaul | wols_, I don't need the functionality of windows, I need the functionality of a GNU/Linux system (and hiya) | 08:29 |
| wols_ | rolf_: since you are on windows, do you have explore2fs or such to access your linux partition? | 08:29 |
| wols_ | RiPPeR666: ^^ | 08:30 |
| fqhuy | hi there, anyone have expriences with ncomputing x300 and ubuntu, please help me something | 08:30 |
| kosnick | h | 08:30 |
| tokyoahead | hi guys... I just want to install 7.1 on an empty HD in my system. Problem is that I have several identical HDs... In "computer", I can see the mounted volume I wantto install to, but in the partition preparation I cannot match it since they are called /dev/sda etc instead of the mount name... how can I match those? | 08:30 |
| b_ecca | hello got dcd, need help again, just new to ubuntu, how do i get back the wireless monitor? coz i removed it from panel and now cant connect to other networks :-( | 08:30 |
| fire360 | wikipedia says --> "The target computer is shut down (Sleeping, Hibernating or Soft Off, i.e. ACPI state G1 or G2), with power reserved for the network card. " Question, that's not REAL shutdown then, so why would need to wake it up? | 08:31 |
| RiPPeR666 | well i only got 1 rigg and dual boot with ubuntu right now so its been alot of fun tryin to go back and forth trying diff thing to get it to load | 08:31 |
| nickrud | b_ecca: you removed the network applet, or the notification area? | 08:31 |
| wols_ | RiPPeR666: since you are on windows, do you have explore2fs or such to access your linux partition? | 08:31 |
| RiPPeR666 | nope | 08:32 |
| Dr_willis | !ext3 | RiPPeR666 | 08:32 |
| ubotu | RiPPeR666: ext3 is the default filesystem on Ubuntu, and the most popular on Linux. You can read/write from Windows to ext3 via http://www.fs-driver.org | 08:32 |
| wols_ | RiPPeR666: then get it | 08:32 |
| Dr_willis | RiPPeR666, or explore2fs - is a similer tool. :) | 08:32 |
| b_ecca | i think so | 08:33 |
| b_ecca | @nickrud | 08:33 |
| b_ecca | coz i cant see the thing wherein you right click it then you could see networks in your area | 08:33 |
| RiPPeR666 | kool ill download that rite now | 08:33 |
| nickrud | b_ecca: first try running alt-f2 nm-applet , do you see it? | 08:33 |
| Buyydee | I'm using Gutsy x64 on a Thinkpad T61p and would like to establish a connection to a VPN server. When I let network-manager try and do this, it asks for passwords, then it takes some time, then it reads "VPN Connect Failure. Could not start the VPN connection 'xx' due to a connection error. The VPN login failed because the VPN program could not connect to the VPN server" My first idea was a firewall issue, so I tried to ping the server, su | 08:34 |
| Myrtti | Buyydee: you got cut off | 08:34 |
| Myrtti | Buyydee: "to ping the server, su" | 08:35 |
| Buyydee | My first idea was a firewall issue, so I tried to ping the server, successfully however. Does someone have an idea on how to tackle this problem? | 08:35 |
| shres | hey, I have an interesting situation i use lilo but everytime i update the kernel, the new entry is added to grub/menu.lst by apt. | 08:35 |
| b_ecca | (nm-applet:9934): WARNING **: <WARN> nma_dbus_net_properties_cb(): dbus returned an error. | 08:35 |
| b_ecca | (org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.NetworkNotFound) The requested network does not exist for this device. | 08:35 |
| shres | how do i change this? | 08:35 |
| tokyoahead | guys I want to partition my HD but I dont know which to pick since they are identic types.. the target one has mount point /media/new volume but in the partionaer they are called /media/sdb1 etc... how do I know which is which? | 08:35 |
| Frogzoo | Buyydee: use tcptraceroute on the port you want | 08:36 |
| nickrud | b_ecca: do you see the applet on the bar? (that's just a warning you got there) | 08:36 |
| ompaul | Buyydee, well you have to tell people what vpn software you are using | 08:36 |
| toxop1asma | questions: how do diff words instead of lines? | 08:36 |
| b_ecca | oh nope | 08:36 |
| b_ecca | i dont see it @ nickrud | 08:36 |
| toxop1asma | to* | 08:36 |
| Pwhdavey_ | someone eradicate Pwhdavey | 08:37 |
| Buyydee | ompaul: vpnc | 08:37 |
| b_ecca | nickrud i just accidentally removed the network monitor on the panel | 08:37 |
| nickrud | b_ecca: ok, next try right clicking the panel, add to panel , and then add the notification area | 08:37 |
| wols_ | Pwhdavey_: no one can. register your nick and do it yourself next time | 08:37 |
| b_ecca | i think theres a way to get it back but i dunno | 08:37 |
| Pwhdavey_ | Daisuke_Ido: If you're there, that was my connection cutting out again. | 08:37 |
| Pwhdavey_ | It could happen again anytime. | 08:37 |
| b_ecca | i see it thanks a lot nickrud | 08:38 |
| nickrud | b_ecca: there's no remove from panel on the nm-applet, it's handled differently. If it's running, it shows up in the notification area (if it exists) | 08:38 |
| Nereos | hi | 08:38 |
| b_ecca | thanks for the tip | 08:38 |
| RiPPeR666 | ok i installed http://www.fs-driver.org | 08:39 |
| ompaul | Buyydee, don't know it at all, if it is a config issue as it is cisco stuff perhaps OpenVPN would help | 08:39 |
| RiPPeR666 | now i got 2 drives f and h one is the swap | 08:39 |
| wols_ | f is your ubuntu? | 08:39 |
| Buyydee | ompaul: My university gives a step-by-step configuration tutorial with pictures :) for ubuntu gutsy, I should be fine there. | 08:40 |
| ompaul | Buyydee, well then they may do more support for it ;-) | 08:40 |
| Newbuntu2 | hello | 08:40 |
| RiPPeR666 | idono the drives are empty how do i see whats on the ext2 partition | 08:40 |
| binaries-APP | :ls | 08:41 |
| Buyydee | ompaul: Well, tell me what you might need to know, I'll look it up. The vpnc error message is not very informative however. | 08:41 |
| Newbuntu2 | how can I set up my box to allow VNC logins right after booting up? | 08:41 |
| Dr_willis | Newbuntu2, You mean to share the current running desktop? or to spwan a vnc session in the background? | 08:42 |
| chazco | Anyone here using Textmaker on Gusty able to explain how to get the msttcorefonts to work correctly? They show up but they're too small | 08:42 |
| Dr_willis | Newbuntu2, you can set up vnc as a service to allow it to spawn as needed. | 08:42 |
| iva1 | Hi all, Having trouble with Mounting volume of external hard drive after upgrade, anyone help? | 08:42 |
| Daisuke_Ido | unfortunately, it's now almost 4 in the morning, and i have an appointment at 11 :\ | 08:42 |
| nekostar | is there a command to reconfigure gnome-volume control? it controls the front speakers not the master and ther'es no real master only a pcm | 08:42 |
| ompaul | Buyydee, - I only use OpenVPN it overcomes a myriad of problems | 08:42 |
| Daisuke_Ido | so i must take my leave. | 08:42 |
| Daisuke_Ido | i'll be back tomorrow :D | 08:43 |
| Newbuntu2 | I'm using the box headless... but for the moment I need a monitor & keyboard hooked up so that I login after boot, and only then can I use VNC | 08:43 |
| Newbuntu2 | Dr_willis: how do I do that? | 08:43 |
| Buyydee | ompaul: Can I connect to a cisco-system with openvpn? | 08:44 |
| iva1 | anyone know how to mount a NTFS external drive??? | 08:44 |
| lucypher | Hi, I've moved my root from a partition to another, thet problem is that update-grub uses the old partition in menu.lst | 08:44 |
| Dr_willis | Newbuntu2, You could just ssh in, and run 'vncserver' that would be the easiest way | 08:44 |
| lucypher | How can I change it? | 08:44 |
| ompaul | Buyydee, no, but there are three clients on ubuntu for what you want to do: vpnc network-manager-vpnc kvpnc you may find them interesting and / or useful | 08:45 |
| Buyydee | ompaul: I'm using vpnc with network-manager-vpnc | 08:45 |
| Dr_willis | Newbuntu2, headless = No monitor and no keyboard/mouse. You can install ssh, and remotely controll the box easially enough. Then you can set up vnc however you like. I tend to use the 'vnc4server' package | 08:45 |
| Newbuntu2 | Dr_willis: how do I set ssh to accept connection after booting? | 08:46 |
| Dr_willis | Newbuntu2, it should accept as far as ive seen.. i never had to do anything special after installing the ssh service | 08:46 |
| wols_ | Newbuntu2: as soon as it's started it does | 08:46 |
| Dr_willis | You will need to install the ssh service of course. | 08:46 |
| patrickchapman | I can not get my audio to work in xawtv nor mythtv | 08:47 |
| Newbuntu2 | and once I ssh in, I run vnc4server? or is that a separate service? | 08:47 |
| Dr_willis | vncserver is the name of the service. Theres variants on it. I INSTALL vnc4server to get 'vncserver' | 08:47 |
| Dr_willis | !vnc | 08:47 |
| ubotu | VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely. It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX | 08:47 |
| Dr_willis | install vnc4server, make a users .vnc/xstartup file to launch the window manager you want, run vncserver, connect. | 08:48 |
| Dr_willis | you may want to use a real light window manager with vnc, I always use 'jwm' | 08:48 |
| Newbuntu2 | what's the difference between tightvnc and vnc4server? | 08:51 |
| Dr_willis | Newbuntu2, little things. I just tend to use vnc4server | 08:52 |
| chazco | Anyone here using Textmaker on Gusty able to explain how to get the msttcorefonts to work correctly? They show up but they're too small | 08:52 |
| patrickchapman | Can someone help me to get the audio working on xawtv or mythtv | 08:53 |
| phizzy | I know this is stupid question | 08:53 |
| phizzy | but how do you install a network card added after you installed | 08:53 |
| phizzy | ifconfig doesn't show anything about new nic | 08:53 |
| phizzy | so I am assuming it didn't install | 08:53 |
| Seidel_ | njour à tous ! | 08:54 |
| Dr_willis | phizzy, this is a normal wired nic? | 08:54 |
| phizzy | yes | 08:55 |
| phizzy | generic I think though | 08:55 |
| phizzy | but normal 100mb pci nic | 08:55 |
| flowOver | how can i get the newest nvidia drivers that were released this week? | 08:56 |
| phizzy | Dr_willis: nod | 08:56 |
| Dr_willis | phizzy, you may need to load the right module for it. but it should show up in ifconfig | 08:57 |
| phizzy | just shows my main nic | 08:57 |
| phizzy | should I plug in my cable modem and see if i get connection maybe? | 08:57 |
| phizzy | brb | 08:57 |
| david | morn | 08:57 |
| co_g | imoet | 08:58 |
| patrickchapman | Can anyone help me to get the audio to work on xawtv or mythtv? | 08:58 |
| Newbuntu2 | Dr_willis: I got it to connect, but I get a nasty window manager. How do I start the default window manager?? | 08:58 |
| david | is there some solution to a "remote CD/DVD burner" ? say Id want to have a burner on a linuxboxen in my kitchen via USB-cable or whatnot and use that in some nifty way over the network | 08:59 |
| david | (weird idea of the day) | 08:59 |
| Dr_willis | Newbuntu2, i said earlier to exit the .vnc/xstartup to run what you want. :) i perfer jwm | 08:59 |
| Dr_willis | Newbuntu2, the default is twm i belive | 08:59 |
| Dr_willis | edit the .vnc/xstartup in the users home dir.. be sure to kill vncserver with 'vncserver -kill :1' after editing it. and restart vncserver, Or else you will spawn a 2nd vncsession | 09:00 |
| co_g | imoet | 09:00 |
| phizzy | back | 09:00 |
| phizzy | yeah no luck | 09:00 |
| phizzy | if it helps | 09:00 |
| === co_g is now known as imoet | ||
| phizzy | I know fedora linux seen the nic right away Dr_willis | 09:01 |
| Newbuntu2 | Dr_willis: what is gnome started as? gnome? or gdk? (This is over 100 ethernet, and for rare use, so I don't want to bother with a lightweight windowmanager yet) | 09:01 |
| Dr_willis | Newbuntu2, gnome-session , i belive. and ive found Gnome to be rather sluggish over the network this way. | 09:01 |
| Dr_willis | Newbuntu2, ive had some quirks with gnome and kde both over vnc. | 09:02 |
| Dr_willis | thats why i use jwm :) | 09:02 |
| phizzy | Dr_willis: anything? | 09:02 |
| Dr_willis | phizzy, you may need to load the right module. You could boot up a live cd. see if that sees it.. if so jot down what modules its loading. | 09:03 |
| Newbuntu2 | Dr_willis: ah, perfect! works great! Thanks!!!! | 09:03 |
| icesword | what version of gnome does 6.06 use | 09:04 |
| phizzy | meh just going to do clean install of ubuntu(installed it today anyways(and hopefully it seems both nics)) | 09:04 |
| Dr_willis | phizzy, heh. thats a little overkill.. | 09:05 |
| phizzy | using live cd isn't an option | 09:05 |
| phizzy | out of blank cds | 09:05 |
| Dr_willis | phizzy, if you boot the installer cd. use lsmod, and see what it sees. | 09:05 |
| phizzy | and downloaded text mode 1 | 09:05 |
| Dr_willis | the alt- cd has a console. you can do lsmod in. :) | 09:05 |
| david | make livecd partition? | 09:05 |
| phizzy | kk | 09:06 |
| phizzy | but what do I take from that just write down what it saids for that nic if it sees it? | 09:06 |
| phizzy | I am assuming lsmod only shows installed hardware? | 09:07 |
| patrickchapman | Can someone help me to get the audio to work in xawtv or mythtv? I can get get random noise but I can not hear a TV channel. | 09:08 |
| phizzy | well work @11 and 4am now | 09:09 |
| phizzy | getting sleep night | 09:09 |

| booster_ | can anyone in here help me install my USB gamepad....im running gusty 7.10....and the pad shows up in joystick cal. | 09:13 |
| Jayzer | Arelis: don't repeat your question like that | 09:13 |

| Arelis | Jayzer: sorry, had to change names | 09:13 |
| RiPPeR666 | ok ive been having a problems with looding x after boot splash sreen goes away i loose the signal to my monitor | 09:14 |
| Dr_willis | booster_, what game ya tryign to use it with? | 09:14 |
| Jayzer | can you go to your home directory, and do ls -al and paste the line that has .ICEauthority? | 09:14 |
| Jayzer | or just tell me the user and group set for the file | 09:14 |
| booster_ | Dr_willis, im tring to use it with SNES EMU | 09:14 |
| Arelis | Jayzer: Sure. it's --rw------ <-- Strange, the permissions haven't changed | 09:14 |
| Jayzer | that's not the whole line | 09:15 |

| Jayzer | you mean you tried to change permissions but it didn't work? | 09:15 |
| booster_ | Dr_willis, do you use gamepads?? | 09:15 |
| Jayzer | how did you go about chmod'ing the file? | 09:16 |
| Arelis | Jayzer: I tried again. I see, every time i log into gnome, it makes it only user-read-writeable. Whatever permissions i set on it, gnome ruins it. | 09:16 |
| Arelis | Jayzer: "chmod 777 .ICEauthority" | 09:16 |
| Jayzer | ok | 09:16 |
| Buyydee | I tried around a little but my vpn still isn't able to connect. Here's a summary of the problems and what I did so far: I'm using vpnc with network-manager-vpnc to connect to a cisco-vpn. Upon connect, I get an error, that no connection to the server could be established. I successfully pinged the server. I tcptracerouted the server on port 80 (www). It might be a problem with my router, a Siemens Se551. | 09:17 |
| Jayzer | odd | 09:17 |

| Arelis | Jayzer: sure | 09:22 |
| Buyydee | RiPPeR666: it will do it all on its own - fixed a similar problem for me | 09:22 |

| Anthony_Schneide | Hello everyone! I have ubuntu_studio and a little problem with it. I have chosen 1600x1200 resolution, but everytime I reload, it sets to 1280x1024 and I have to change it back manualy every time. Can you suggest a solution, maybe a sctipt that will change it automatically? Thanks! | 09:27 |
| Flannel | ePax: sudo -i is equivalent to sudo su -, sudo -s is equivalent to sudo su. You should use the sudo-only versions and not the sudo su versions. | 09:27 |
| Jayzer | Arelis: so it just knocks you out of X and gives you that error message? | 09:28 |
| bullgard4 | Is 'speak' a discontinued Ubuntu command? (https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-accessibility/2006-September/001129.html) | 09:28 |
| simplexio | icesword: you can play with swappines on overcommit flags in /proc/ or was it /sys/ cant remember | 09:28 |
| s | any program where i can chat and use webcam | 09:28 |
| Flannel | ePax: But, those are, for the most part, not really useful, because sudo itself takes care of 99% of the cases. | 09:28 |
| ePax | Flannel: When i need to login as root what should i use? Not sudo su? | 09:28 |
| Flannel | ePax: Why do you need to login as root? | 09:28 |
| icesword | ere4si, yeah,the problem is if i don't pass gnome,can i stop some service,i got so many background service running in default | 09:29 |
| ePax | Flannel: Not that i need to but i do need to login as root some times. What command shall i use? | 09:29 |
| Arelis | Jayzer: Deleting .ICEauthority fixed it! | 09:29 |
| ere4si | icesword, there is an app named sysv-rc that will let you do that - but be careful what you disable | 09:30 |
| Flannel | ePax: Well, under normal circumstances you wont. But `sudo -i` will work fine. | 09:30 |
| Jayzer | haha, awesome | 09:30 |
| Jayzer | i was almost going to consider telling you that | 09:30 |
| Flannel | bullgard4: No, I don't believe so. That person was compiling it from source. | 09:30 |
| Arelis | Jayzer: now i just need to add that to a startup script so it deletes it every time it boots | 09:30 |
| Jayzer | but i thought you might have had a reason for keeping that file around | 09:30 |
| Arelis | Jayzer: no. | 09:31 |
| ePax | Flannel: Ok... In cases i needed to login as root i used sudo su,... But ill try to remember to use su -i :D Thnx | 09:31 |
| Arelis | Jayzer: will .bashrc be run when i login using the display manager? | 09:31 |
| Flannel | ePax: not su -i, sudo -i | 09:31 |
| ePax | oki | 09:31 |
| bullgard4 | Flannel: Thank you very much for you information. | 09:32 |
| Jayzer | Arelis: don't believe so | 09:32 |
| Flannel | Jayzer, Arelis, you don't need to delete Xauthority all the time. It shouldn't be causing issues under normal operating conditions. Do you run graphical commands using sudo? | 09:32 |
| Jayzer | it will only run when you open bash | 09:32 |
| brahmaputra | Hi all! | 09:32 |
| Arelis | Flannel: I run my system from a pendrive. This is the first time i do that, and i just installed it on that. It works using casper-rw and is just like a persistent livecd. | 09:33 |
| Arelis | Flannel: so yes, i DO need that | 09:33 |
| david | anyone tried webCDwriter ? | 09:33 |
| Arelis | Jayzer: so that means when the system boots? (every time it boots, it logs into the shell) | 09:33 |
| Flannel | Arelis: You shouldn't need to delete it each time, no. Since it shouldn't be causing problems with permissions (because under nomral circumstances, it works fine). It usually causes problems after invoking graphical programs using sudo (instead of gksu or kdesu) | 09:34 |
| Flannel | Arelis: that is, unless the pendrive is doing something odd that I'm not aware of (should be identical to a regular system) | 09:35 |
| Arelis | Flannel: I've checked the page on liveusb installing, and i've seen comments about people experiencing the same problem. It is even a well-known bug (the .ICEauthority bug) | 09:35 |
| Flannel | Arelis: Alright, bugs are bugs | 09:35 |
| Arelis | Flannel: :) i should post the fix though | 09:35 |
| Arelis | where can i post it? | 09:36 |
| Flannel | Arelis: the wiki that mentions the bug would be a good place | 09:36 |
| Arelis | Flannel: must i create an account for that? | 09:36 |
| Flannel | Arelis: If you don't already have one, yeah | 09:37 |

| Jayzer | you typically put startup scripts in /etc/init.d/ | 09:43 |
| Stonekeeper | actaully i want it for making musci too so nothing cheap :) | 09:43 |
| Newbuntu2 | it's supposed to use the spca5xx driver; but when I plug it into the usb port, the power light flashes for a fraction of a second and then stays off.... | 09:44 |

| Giddykong | just curious on compiz wasnt there a raised window feature when you rotate the cube? | 09:58 |
| tokyoahead | bazhang: so now the ysstem wont boot for linux | 09:58 |
| icesword | tokyoahead, hd0,0 is your first primary partition on first disk | 09:58 |
| tokyoahead | icesword: so on SDA1? | 09:58 |

| jscinoz | because ic ant tell the difference | 09:59 |
| tokyoahead | but the question is: how cnaI get thesystem to boot | 09:59 |
| tokyoahead | it wont boot into linux if I set the linux HD to be the primary in Bios | 10:00 |
| icesword | tokyoahead, wait,where is grub | 10:00 |
| icesword | tokyoahead, or whatever the loader | 10:00 |
| Anthony_Schneide | hello! i have installed tuxguitar, and while running it have the following error : anthony@anthony-desktop:/usr/bin$ tuxguitar | 10:00 |

| Anthony_Schneide | Can you suggest a solution? thanks! | 10:00 |
| binaries-APP | tokyoahead: there is an option on the install cd, which allows you to select directly what youd like to do, you can boot from the cd, cancle the installation and simply install the grub boot loader to the mbr ( master boot record ) | 10:01 |
| icesword | tokyoahead, if you like ,add my msn yang8639ok@hotmail.com | 10:01 |
| Anthony_Schneide | PS I have hardy 8.04 alpha 5 | 10:01 |
| tokyoahead | icesword: dont run msn | 10:01 |
| tonyyarusso | Anthony_Schneide: Hardy help in #ubuntu+1 | 10:01 |
| bazhang | Anthony_Schneide: you should join #ubuntu+1 then | 10:01 |
| tokyoahead | binaries-APP: if I install linux on the HD that is the boot one in bios, should it not boot w/o grub? | 10:02 |
| Anthony_Schneide | you think this error can be cause of Alpha 5 distro? | 10:02 |
| bazhang | not on topic here Anthony_Schneide | 10:02 |
| Anthony_Schneide | ok, thanks! I will ask the same there! | 10:03 |
| icesword | tokyoahead, you need to give us more details | 10:03 |
| patrickchapman | Can anyone help me to get the audio to work on xawtv or mythtv? I can get random noise on /dev/dsp but not sound from a TV channel. | 10:05 |
| tokyoahead | icesword: ok Ihave 4 HDs, 2 with data, one empty one with XP on it. I installed 7.10 on the empty one after havinf set it to the primary one in the bios. I did not install the boot loader because I thought I do not need it. I also had several times that the boot loader crashed my windows completely, so I wanted to boot from linux by swithing the primary in bios instead of using the bootloader; But still if I set the linux HD as primary boot disdk in | 10:05 |
| binaries-APP | tokyoahead: the master boot record will only recognise windows installations, ubntu is unix therefor its boot option will not be shown in the mbr; aside from that the boot sheme has no idea that there even is another os on your system | 10:05 |
| binaries-APP | tokyoahead: for this reason it is nesseccary to install an alternative boot loader to the mbr | 10:06 |
| icesword | tokyoahead, so it seems that grub (loader) is not available on any of your disk,right | 10:06 |
| tokyoahead | binaries I get it. | 10:06 |
| tokyoahead | icesword: yeah. can I install it on a different HD than the SDa1 where XP is? I would not want to risk that system | 10:07 |
| icesword | tokyoahead, if you like,you can use windows' ntldr boot linux,is that you want | 10:07 |
| tokyoahead | icesword: welll it sounds better than grub since I had to reinstall XP in the past 2 times after installing grub :-) | 10:08 |
| tokyoahead | icesword: can I install the NTLDR w/o reinstalling XP? how do I install that? | 10:08 |
| icesword | tokyoahead, you know there is a file called "grub4dos",and your windows have a boot.ini | 10:09 |
| tokyoahead | icesword: where is that grub4dos? | 10:09 |
| icesword | tokyoahead, you just add e.g.c:\grldr=ubuntu | 10:09 |
| icesword | tokyoahead, www.sourceforge.net,search grub4dos | 10:10 |
| Newbuntu2 | bazhang: I tried that, didn't work | 10:11 |
| Newbuntu2 | (the USB webcam) | 10:11 |
| bazhang | Newbuntu2: you compiled that with build-essential? | 10:11 |
| Newbuntu2 | I believe so | 10:11 |
| Arelis | how do i make ubuntu do things at bootup? | 10:12 |
| tokyoahead | icesword: thanks I will try this one | 10:12 |
| Newbuntu2 | yes, I have build-essential installed. the compilation etc all worked | 10:12 |
| icesword | tokyoahead, then you need to creat a menu.lst by your own | 10:12 |
| Newbuntu2 | it's just when I plug it in, it sees it as an ehic device and leaves it at that. | 10:12 |

I want it to delete /home/ubuntu/.ICEauthority and /home/ubuntu/.ICEauthority-c at bootup, and i want it to copy /etc/X11/xorg.conf.radeon (it's a customized version of the xorg.conf) to /etc/X11/xorg.conf. The reason for that all is that i'm running it on a pendrive and deleting .ICEauthority fixes a problem with logging in (so i can't get in gnome unless that happens), and i want to copy that config because it fixes a lot o | 10:20 |
| apurva | i uninstalled the driver using sudo envy --uninstall-all | 10:21 |
| apurva | how do i proceed now? | 10:22 |
| Sinnerman | Bad_boy might a plugin you've got installed. do you have any, or is it a fresh install of firefox. and what version of firefox are you using? | 10:23 |
| apurva | the restricted drivers box shows NVIDIA not enabled (check box empty) and "in use" with a grreen light | 10:23 |
| apurva | hey bazhang... u there? | 10:24 |
| icesword | Bad_boy, yeah,that is it,try to disable any suspicious plugin | 10:24 |
| bazhang | apurva you have the restricted driver manager? | 10:24 |
| apurva | yes | 10:24 |
| bazhang | Arelis: that sounds quite complex, well beyond anything I could comment on | 10:24 |
| apurva | the restricted drivers box shows NVIDIA not enabled (check box empty) and "in use" with a grreen light | 10:24 |
| chazco | Anyone here using Textmaker on Gusty able to explain how to get the msttcorefonts to work correctly? They show up but they're too small | 10:25 |
| Bad_boy | Sinnerman: I have just re-installed it now, looks like no problem at the moment the only plugin from flash fro 64 bits i installed last week | 10:25 |
| Sinnerman | Bad_boy are you using their beta release? | 10:25 |
| Bad_boy | Sinnerman: how do i knowt it's better, I just used package manager to installed. OOps it just closed down again | 10:27 |
| Bad_boy | Sinnerman: what the hell is happening | 10:27 |
| Sinnerman | Bad_boy if you used the package manager, then it's what's shipped with ubuntu, unless you've enabled backports or added other repositories. | 10:27 |
| Sinnerman | Bad_boy try opening up a terminal, and launching firefox from there, that is, type firefox and press enter in a terminal. when it quits, it'll probably give you some helpful error message. | 10:28 |
| giby | ciao | 10:28 |
| Bad_boy | Sinnerman: I am a newbie, so I do not what I added in repositories | 10:29 |
| Sinnerman | Bad_boy if you haven't messed with it, then it's good :). | 10:29 |
| bazhang | sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg apurva try this in the terminal and choose nvidia as the driver and not nv | 10:29 |

| Bad_boy | Sinnerman: firefox from terminal no problem , load up, let see if it closes in the next few minustes | 10:30 |
| Newbuntu2 | it's a creative live!; it uses the spca5xx drivers | 10:30 |
| yatna | any cad users | 10:30 |
| Bad_boy | Sinnerman: it closes | 10:30 |
| Newbuntu2 | however, when I plug it in, it is just added as a ehci device, but nothing adds it as a video device | 10:31 |
| Sinnerman | Bad_boy yes, but when you run it from a terminal, any abnormal termination should give you an error message in the terminal. | 10:31 |
| Sinnerman | Bad_boy did it exit telling you about any problem? | 10:32 |
| giby | sorry men!but how function for download the file? | 10:32 |
| Bad_boy | Sinnerman: i did close the terminal afterwards, so did read. Now i have opended and type firefox, i wiat to see the errors | 10:33 |
| giby | this is a programme that is possible take the file? | 10:33 |
| Sinnerman | Bad_boy ok. don't close the terminal :) you need to see what the errors are. | 10:33 |
| BlackOpal | heya people | 10:34 |

| Bad_boy | had this problem 2 weeks ago, I had to-reinstalll | 10:35 |
| Sinnerman | Bad_boy is there something you do with firefox that crashes it, or a web site that specifically makes that happen? | 10:35 |
| BlackOpal | sorry *some | 10:35 |
| bazhang | giby you have a support question? this is not a chatty type channel | 10:35 |
| giby | ..ok bad_boy..my question is,with this programm is possible download the file? | 10:35 |
| Sinnerman | Bad_boy does it only happen with firefox or have you noticed similar behaviour with other applications? | 10:36 |
| Sinnerman | giby what file? | 10:36 |
| bazhang | giby what file | 10:36 |
| Newbuntu2 | where do source files get downloaded to? | 10:36 |
| BlackOpal | does anyone here have experience making LOTRO work with wine | 10:36 |
| rhineheart_m | won't it create issue if dovecot and postfix are both running in a mailserver? | 10:36 |
| Sinnerman | Newbuntu2 how are you downloading them? | 10:36 |
| giby | no no.only water;.) | 10:36 |

| Bad_boy | giby: no prob with other soft | 10:37 |
| Giddykong | how do ya run konsole as admin? | 10:37 |
| giby | is possible but probably this evinign and not in the morning | 10:37 |
| Giddykong | or terminal | 10:37 |
| Bad_boy | giby: Yes, i could download files yesteday pdf | 10:37 |
| Sinnerman | Newbuntu2 the packages you download usually go into: /var/cache/apt/archives, but im not sure where the .deb files extract the source files. /usr/src maybe? | 10:37 |
| icesword | Giddykong, no,it is not recommended,try sudo instead | 10:37 |
| Giddykong | k thanks | 10:38 |
| giby | and how is possible?with wich comand? | 10:38 |
| Giddykong | not used to ubuntu :P | 10:38 |
| Sinnerman | Bad_boy sure, but anything specifically that crashes it, or is it completely random? | 10:38 |

| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about easy - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 10:38 |
| Bad_boy | Sinnerman: last i got segmentation, firefox stop loading up completely. I did mentteest for 16 hours, no errors | 10:38 |
| bazhang | giby do you have an actual question? | 10:38 |
| BlackOpal | icesword, whats the difference between the two | 10:38 |
| Sinnerman | Bad_boy no problems with other applications i take it? | 10:38 |
| icesword | BlackOpal, you mean sudo , | 10:39 |
| Bad_boy | Sinnerman: this started an hour ago, closes down a few a minutes | 10:39 |
| icesword | !sudo > BlackOpal | 10:39 |
| Bad_boy | Sinnerman: no prob with any other software | 10:39 |
| GodWing | anybody has tried installing Oracle RAC in ubuntu here? | 10:39 |
| Sinnerman | Bad_boy i'm out of ideas. maybe one of the other guys will be able to tell you more. | 10:39 |
| fire360 | who big is ubuntu's repository? i want to download a big portion of it for an non-internet machine | 10:40 |
| GodWing | I just wanna know whether Ubuntu is compatible for installing Oracle or not? | 10:40 |
| Bad_boy | Sinnerman: maybe i need a complete removal of firefox | 10:40 |
| GodWing | according to info, Oracle is certificated to Redhat, Suse and Asianux only | 10:40 |
| bazhang | http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/linux/install/xe-on-kubuntu.html GodWing | 10:40 |
| BlackOpal | icesword, yes i know of sudo use it reguarly, but how does that help me with running Lotro with wine | 10:40 |
| Bad_boy | Sinnerman: WHAT'S THE COMmand for that | 10:40 |
| GodWing | thanks bazhang | 10:40 |
| icesword | bazhang, where are other guys,btw ,i am net installing 7.10 now,though not sure if it will boot on my machine:( | 10:41 |
| bazhang | np | 10:41 |
| Giddykong | hmm has anyone else had trouble with installing skype on ubuntu 7.10? | 10:41 |
| Sinnerman | Bad_boy well, in synaptic, located the firefox package, and mark it for complete uninstallation. | 10:41 |
| bazhang | icesword: not sure; it is still early am for most of them ;] what issues are you having? | 10:41 |
| icesword | BlackOpal, yeah,wine is not the end solution for windows programs,sometimes we use virtual machine | 10:41 |
| icesword | bazhang, no,i haven't ,i just talk to you | 10:42 |
| BlackOpal | icesword, ah ok so like virtual box? you reccommend any | 10:42 |
| bazhang | vmware-server and vbox both will do it BlackOpal | 10:42 |
| icesword | BlackOpal, yeah,virtualbox is free,also qemu | 10:42 |
| BlackOpal | icesword, thanks, im goning to have a play | 10:42 |

| goldenfox | hello everyone | 10:43 |
| Bad_boy | Sinnerman: Cheers for that, I did not have any prob with 32 bits on this Quad core, but i have $GB ram so, i decided to move 54 bits gutsy | 10:43 |
| Sinnerman | Bad_boy and if you're feeling intrepid and really want a clean slate, and lose your bookmarks, go into your home directory and delete the firefox folder inside the .mozilla folder. i wouldn't recommend that. really, before you do that, you might want to create another username, log in as that username, and see if it still causes problems. | 10:43 |
| patrickchapman | Can anyone help me to get audio to work on xawtv or mythtv? I can get random noise on /dev/dsp but no sound from any TV channels. | 10:43 |

| bazhang | GodWing: there may be someone here that knows--you can also take a look at ubuntuforums | 10:43 |
| lsw | 잉.. | 10:43 |
| Dr_willis | goldenfox, theres a xchat extra tool that does that. | 10:44 |
| GodWing | thanks bazhang | 10:44 |
| Dr_willis | !find xchat | 10:44 |

| GodWing | :) I appreciate it so much | 10:44 |
| goldenfox | Dr_willis: thanks a lot :) | 10:44 |
| Dr_willis | goldenfox, xchat-systemtray or somthing i think. | 10:44 |
| juelz | if /dev/sda2 is my / partition, the line containing "root" in the menu.lst of grub should be "(hd0,1)"? | 10:44 |

| Bad_boy | Sinnerman: all my bookmark get synchronised, with foxmark on-line automatically to share on my computers, so i can my bookmarks back :) | 10:45 |
| Sinnerman | Bad_boy i don't think the memory is the determining factor on whether to use a 32- or 64-bit OS. The processor should be. It does not affect how much memory is used or not as far as i know, but probably affects the efficiency with which your system runs. | 10:45 |
| goldenfox | Dr_willis: thanks again | 10:45 |
| kraypius | is there anyone who might want to help me 1 on 1 with bind/dns on this server for some paypal? | 10:45 |
| Sinnerman | Bad_boy well, try making another user first (clean profile kind of thing) and see. if that solves your problem, then it's a per-user setting in firefox that you've set. | 10:46 |
| Bad_boy | Sinnerman: this is a new computer, and did a memtest fro 14 hours, no erros at all | 10:46 |
| Sinnerman | anyway. i gotta step out for a bit. | 10:46 |

| === [TIE]Sentinel is now known as dave^^ | ||
| SpentRocket | Yes shres, if you forget to run lilo after kernel changes it renders you non-bootable, all you need to do to get in is boot from some other media, cd for example, or another linux partition that DOES still boot, mount your broken one, chroot to it and then run lilo, all will be fixed again :-) | 10:52 |

| patrickchapman | This is my first time on IRC. Is it normal to ask the same question for hours and get _absolutely_ no response from anyone? | 11:01 |
| Dr_willis | patrickchapman, when asking very specific questions like that - often NOone on here knows. | 11:01 |
| KyleSloderbeck | Another thing is that it didn't recognize the wide screen and was at 1024 x 768 to start with. But thank you SpentRocket. | 11:02 |

| Dr_willis | patrickchapman, audio is only failing for those programs? | 11:04 |

| Buyydee | Hi. I would like to launch the following command with a launcher, what exactly do I have to enter in the fields?: export MATLAB_JAVA=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre && matlab & | 11:04 |
| patrickchapman | correct | 11:04 |
| patrickchapman | The audio works when I select an example audio file. | 11:05 |
| Dr_willis | patrickchapman, the mythtv guys might be able to help you. It could be an issue with the tv tuner card also. Picture works but no sound? | 11:05 |
| patrickchapman | I have a picture in both xawtv and mythtv but no sound. | 11:05 |
| dave^^ | I guess I'll stick with XP then :( | 11:07 |
| Leafman | :o | 11:07 |
| SpentRocket | It sounds like it's missed your video card setup KyleSloderbeck, I asked you if you were running an old computer meanwhile what you've got there is quite new ... I'm new to Ubuntu but old at Linux, have a look at the "Device" section of your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file, does what you see there look reasonable? | 11:08 |
| thannoy | Buyydee: for my own, I would have past those line in a file name run_matlab.sh for example, giving it the x right for user (chmod u+x file), and then link this file for the launcher | 11:08 |
| Leafman | dave what would be the problem? (prob can't help but won't hurt if i try? lol) | 11:08 |
| dave^^ | Leafman: the install process seems to crash | 11:08 |
| dave^^ | or hang | 11:08 |
| Leafman | =/ | 11:08 |
| buozzi | hi | 11:08 |
| thannoy | Buyydee: maybe adding a line "#!/bin/bash" as a first line of the file could help too | 11:08 |
| dave^^ | early on it tells me that it can't find the drivers for my graphics card | 11:09 |
| buozzi | list! | 11:09 |
| KyleSloderbeck | i'll look real quick | 11:09 |
| Buyydee | thannoy: what would the text for the sh file look like? i'm not into scripting... i suppose first line as you just said and second line just as my command with out the & at the end? | 11:09 |
| Leafman | yeah compatibility issues, think i got those too lol | 11:09 |
| dave^^ | then I either choose drivers and click 'test' or I tell it to continue with generic drivers - either way it goes back to the text screen and just hangs | 11:09 |
| dave^^ | the last thing I see is something like "loading startup scripts DONE" | 11:09 |
| dave^^ | or maybe it was running startup scripts DONE | 11:09 |
| thannoy | Buyydee: that it. (and no '"' for my line) | 11:10 |
| Buyydee | thannoy: ok, i'll try that | 11:10 |
| Leafman | well don't think i can help you there, have you tried searching *the name of your computer* instal ubuntu or something? | 11:11 |
| KyleSloderbeck | Spentrocket: I can't seem to find that file... | 11:11 |

| danand | OomElvis - why bother? you'll never need _all_ of those packages. the benefit of downloading packages off the net is you only get what you need. the cd has most of the packages you will require. | 11:21 |
| OomElvis | nevermind | 11:21 |
| OomElvis | cool | 11:21 |
| OomElvis | thanks for the help | 11:21 |
| OomElvis | ciao | 11:21 |
| Bad_boy | guys, I am loads of problems with firefox, it keeps crashing after a minutes. I have done a complete removal of firefoc re-install again, still the same thing : I am getting this from the terminal : firefox | 11:22 |

| Leafman | Hey I have a question, I'm using a live cd for ubuntu atm (installed version went a bit crazy) and i want to try something that would need me to reboot. Is there a way to save xchat to usb stick so i don't have to keep downloading it for live cd? | 11:23 |
| cosimo_ | grazie :) | 11:23 |
| tokyoahead | guys I changed my screen and how after reboot I have all wierd lines on my screen, hoe can I switch w/o seein what I do? | 11:23 |
| KyleSloderbeck | http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/57916/ that's what came up. | 11:24 |
| kalatian | Bad_boy: closing firefox, opening a terminal and running mv .mozilla .mozilla-1 (this will move your firefox preferences to .mozilla-1, and if they are causing the problem, then it will solve it hopefully) to undo, do mv .mozilla-1 .mozilla | 11:24 |
| EnvoyRising | my mic does not work | 11:24 |
| kalatian | Bad_boy: actually, that probably won't help -- it is the flash player that is crashing | 11:25 |
| SpentRocket | You could just copy x-chat to your stick Leafman, and run it from there | 11:25 |
| Leafman | lol k i'll try that :) | 11:25 |
| Bad_boy | kalatian: done the .mv | 11:26 |
| Giddykong | what is an app i can use to burn an iso cd image? | 11:26 |
| Bad_boy | kalatian: shall undo the .mv. -1 | 11:26 |
| LukeL | For windows giddykong? | 11:26 |
| Bad_boy | kalatian: how do you it the lash crashing it | 11:26 |
| kalatian | Bad_boy: if you have no other ideas, mv'ing it is worth a try I suppose, but as I said, probably won't help | 11:26 |
| Giddykong | nah ubuntu 7.10 | 11:27 |
| EnvoyRising | is there some tool that will guide me through setting up my laptop's mic? no matter what channel I chose, I can't record anything | 11:27 |

| Bad_boy | kalatian: yeah, on 64 bits gutsy problme with flash. but it worked for 2 weeks | 11:27 |
| SpentRocket | I'm serious Leafman, check on package manager if any special libs are needed and copy those too, and change your SHLIB_PATH, sorry did I say that? I meant LD_LIBRARY_PATH to suite .. | 11:27 |
| Leafman | k well i'm serious about trying that too i just feel stupid now :) | 11:28 |
| kalatian | Bad_boy: I'm using flash on 64bit, I've never had it crash firefox, although flash itself does crash occasionally | 11:28 |
| SpentRocket | Hehehe lol well don't be :-) | 11:28 |

| KyleSloderbeck | Hey spentrocket i'm going to reboot real quick ;) Might have gotten this thing figured out... doubt it though lol :P | 11:32 |
| EnvoyRising | kalatian, that was the first place i went | 11:32 |
| EnvoyRising | thanks though | 11:32 |
| kalatian | EnvoyRising: ok, just checking :) | 11:32 |
| SpentRocket | Good luck to kyleSloderbeck :-) | 11:32 |
| Bad_boy | kalatian: thanks i think it work, if the flash is causing that maybe this will happen | 11:33 |
| kalatian | EnvoyRising: if you have one of those fancy boards with 8 difference audio jacks, make sure you've got the plug in the right hole ;) | 11:33 |
| EnvoyRising | kalatian, its a built in mic | 11:33 |
| icesword | :( | 11:33 |
| kalatian | Bad_boy: ok, cool :) glad that helped -- hope you didn't have too many extensions installed =P | 11:34 |
| kalatian | EnvoyRising: sorry, my mistake. did you check to make sure that all the sliders are up in the volume control, and that all the tracks are available in preferences? | 11:34 |
| braddbr | hi.. i am doing a 'apt-get install xfonts-base' on a desktop and i keep getting 'FATAL: Error inserting battery'.. this is a desktop. anyone know of a fix for this? | 11:34 |

| armani76 | knock knock | 11:35 |
| kalatian | Bad_boy: ah, ok, easy to fix that problem then | 11:35 |
| EnvoyRising | kalatian, roger. i turned on all channels, turned everything up, then tested with every 'record from input' option available | 11:35 |
| icesword | kalatian, i have to do reinstall again,and it is netinstall | 11:35 |
| icesword | lol | 11:36 |
| kalatian | EnvoyRising: what program are you using? | 11:36 |
| ere4si | icesword, what happened? | 11:36 |
| kalatian | icesword: why don't you download the CD or something? | 11:36 |
| EnvoyRising | kalatian, the default sound recorder | 11:36 |
| SpentRocket | I really think Ubuntu did a good job here, a lot more people are going to like linux now | 11:36 |
| EnvoyRising | kalatian, i'm open to using other software if you have suggestions | 11:36 |
| arturo | per l italiano? | 11:36 |

| kalatian | EnvoyRising: I'd highly recommend audacity | 11:37 |
| arturo | grazie mille | 11:37 |
| larson9999 | kwaj, put '> filename' after the command will do it. | 11:37 |
| icesword | ere4si, i just do a netinstall | 11:37 |
| danand | kwaj - command > command_output.txt | 11:37 |
| ere4si | k | 11:37 |
| EnvoyRising | kalatian, i was afraid you'd say that. seems a bit overkill. just need to record some korean phrases for this class. i'll get it anyways, maybe it'll help, lol | 11:37 |
| icesword | kalatian, coz i install ubuntu to a vm | 11:38 |
| kalatian | EnvoyRising: i only say that because I've never used the default sound recorder, and audacity seems to work ok for me :D | 11:38 |
| EnvoyRising | kalatian, fair enough | 11:38 |
| EnvoyRising | lol | 11:38 |
| kalatian | icesword: you can't use the normal cd because its a VM? why not? | 11:39 |
| KyleSloderbeck | Soooo the noob is back. | 11:39 |
| KyleSloderbeck | No luck :*( | 11:39 |
| icesword | kalatian, coz my mem is low,i am afraid it won't boot | 11:39 |
| kalatian | ah | 11:39 |
| kalatian | icesword: you could try the alternate install cd | 11:40 |
| icesword | kalatian, not sure if alternate will boot | 11:40 |
| kalatian | one step ahead of me :D | 11:40 |
| KyleSloderbeck | I tried to uninstall 915resolution but still got the same error. Could it be that I installed several different graphic things from the synaptic package manager | 11:40 |
| icesword | kalatian, i have 256m ram on host | 11:41 |
| Trondern | i had a computer with only xp on it, then installed ubuntu and now i get the grub 22 error.. i think the boot files are on the hd0,0 disk witch is ntfs and i can get access to, only grub flies found is on another disk and setup on this disk doesnt help.. | 11:41 |
| EnvoyRising | kalatian, i'm a step closer. it actually records, but I have a lot of static. will turn down a few channels to see if that helps | 11:41 |
| Giddykong | hey on ubuntu 7.04 is compiz on it from fresh install? | 11:41 |
| icesword | Trondern, google "grub load error 22" | 11:41 |
| EnvoyRising | kalatian, meanwhile, is there a noise cancellation feature in audacity? | 11:41 |
| EnvoyRising | kalatian, nevermind, found it :-) | 11:42 |
| kalatian | EnvoyRising: that's good :D I think there is a noise cancelation, but I don't know how to use it. Your best bet is to mute a bunch of channels | 11:42 |
| MDCore | I'm runny gutsy and having problems with wireless on my laptop. It detects the security on my AP's as WEP instead of WPA for some reason and won't let me connect. Any ideas? | 11:42 |
| Trondern | i did, but cAnt see the problem with boot files on a ntfs disk covered.. | 11:42 |
| EnvoyRising | kalatian, vain I know, but I wish the widgets were prettier, lol | 11:42 |
| kalatian | EnvoyRising: just out of curiousity, where is the noise canceling feature? | 11:42 |
| icesword | kalatian, will 7.10 alternate cd boot under 100m ram? | 11:42 |
| kalatian | haha, yeah, audacity isn't the prettiest program in the world ;) | 11:43 |
| EnvoyRising | kalatian, effect > noise removeal | 11:43 |
| kalatian | icesword: I've booted in on 96 | 11:43 |
| SpentRocket | KyleSloderbeck: All the clues will be in xorg.conf in the "Device" section, it might be that your hardware hasn't been detected properly, but you need to look and tell us what's in there, and what you have in your computer ... | 11:43 |
| ArmedKing | Is there a way in Ubuntu to look for packages not needed by the system anymore. i realy neet to clean up ツ | 11:43 |
| icesword | kalatian, okay,:)i will stop this netinstall,hhehe | 11:43 |
| kalatian | ArmedKing: yep, sudo apt-get autoremove | 11:43 |
| EnvoyRising | kalatian, i'l try and find an alternative once i finish my homework :P | 11:43 |

| KyleSloderbeck | Did you check http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/57918/ spentrocket? | 11:45 |
| SpentRocket | Hey kalatian, Audacity is superb software, especially when you think of how much you paid for it :-) | 11:45 |
| kalatian | icesword: it isn't pretty, but I think that's because the processor is only 300mhz -- the ram shouldn't be a problem | 11:46 |
| kalatian | SpentRocket: no no, I know that, just saying the controls don't match the GTK theme | 11:46 |

| tokyoahead | simplexio: I am there... what do I put in instead? I have driver fglrx... | 11:57 |

| davit | any hints on remove U-desktop | 12:09 |
| LukeL | icesword does it say I'm from USA? | 12:09 |
| mbrandt | i have two monitors but they are both the same | 12:09 |
| hischild | LukeL, was just doin a random guess based on the time difference | 12:09 |
| mbrandt | and the option is greyed out | 12:09 |
| icesword | LukeL, what?your @ is so long ,it is not easy to guess,:) | 12:09 |
| crow | when I choose 'shut down' on my ubuntu, it doesn't shot down my pc, but it just unloads the ubuntu and stays turned on. how do I make it to turn off completely? | 12:09 |
| mbrandt | crow, how old is your PC? | 12:10 |
| epifanio | guys, i done checking integrity, : check finished: errors in 412 files! press any key to reboot your system :-( | 12:10 |
| crow | 2y | 12:10 |
| mbrandt | should support soft shutdown, try shutdown now -h | 12:10 |
| neeto | Is there a way to request a list of availiable IPs from a DHCP server? | 12:10 |
| mbrandt | crow, if that doesn't power it off you may be out of luck | 12:11 |
| danand | davit - sudo apt-get --purge remove ubuntu-desktop? if you have tried that what errors do you get | 12:11 |
| neeto | Or request an IP from a DHCP server within a certain user-defined range | 12:11 |
| LukeL | I don't think you can pick an IP from DHCP being a client | 12:11 |
| mbrandt | OBTW crow, that's from a command line and don't forget to put sudo in front | 12:11 |
| crow | mbamford, sure | 12:11 |
| neeto | LukeL: bad news for me then :( | 12:11 |
| mbrandt | neeto | 12:11 |
| crow | mbrandt, thanks | 12:12 |
| neeto | mbrandt: | 12:12 |
| mbrandt | neeto you can bind an IP address to a MAC address in the dhcp server options | 12:12 |
| LukeL | If you run the DHCP server then yeah you can probably configure it to a specific IP or reserve by MAC | 12:12 |
| davit | danand I did not get error as I used webmin from remote. it displayed files have been removed. I not checking the box. | 12:12 |
| crow | another thing: what is good c++ compiler that I can run on ubuntu? | 12:12 |
| crow | which* | 12:13 |
| LukeL | crow gcc | 12:13 |
| * mbrandt is not a program roller man | 12:13 | |
| crow | I got some intel c++ but it doesn't compile some codes | 12:13 |
| neeto | mbrandt, LukeL : I am merely a client... a pawn, a slave of the master college network... the virtual network fortress that I am trapped inside. No outside access... I am alone in this cold dark underworld of slow downloads and bittorrent traffic shaping... | 12:13 |
| davit | opps Danand. I mean .. I will check the box directly soon. | 12:13 |
| mbrandt | neeto, LOL, sorry man | 12:13 |
| danand | davit - can you not ssh into the box? | 12:14 |
| rudolfmdlt | crow, install build-essential, do a synaptic search for it. | 12:14 |
| crow | rudolfmdlt, what is 'build-essential'? something to update my c++ or? | 12:15 |
| mbrandt | crow, sudo apt-get install build-essential | 12:15 |
| Dr_willis | its the basic files needed for C devevopment | 12:15 |
| neeto | To retain my livelyhood I have investigated many ways of getting past the restrictions set upon me by my sadistic gateway server... however as it has been a perilous journey, my troubles do not seem to end so easily... | 12:15 |

| neeto | NO! Not at all. The machine will be the end of me! DAMN YOU SANDVINE!! DAMN YOU TO HELL!!!! | 12:16 |
| PriceChild | neeto: if you are being restricted at university, contact the admins of the network. We're not hot on helping you bypass it here. | 12:16 |
| nu2buntu | hi! i'm trying to resize my winxp ntfs so that i can increase the space of my ubuntu ext3 ... but it seems the drive orders limits this process. i tried in gparted (via livecd) or even partition magic (via winxp). still i can/do not know how to solve this. do i have to create these new partitions from scratch? any help will be appreciated. thx | 12:16 |
| neeto | PriceChild: You take the fun out of everything man, grow a sense of humor. | 12:16 |
| mbrandt | crow, yeah, I'm a network engineer, i'm the guy that locks yuo down | 12:16 |
| mbrandt | rather neeto | 12:16 |
| Dr_willis | nu2buntu, ive seen where it depends on the drive layout and what partitions are extended and what are logical - can cause issues. | 12:17 |
| KyleSloderbeck | I'm still having problems getting desktop effects to work. I can't find anything. Error Message " Desktop effects could not be enabled " | 12:17 |
| davit | Danand, yes but now at the box looking at logs but dont know what I am looking for. Nothing appears wrong, except Destop is still loaded! | 12:17 |
| Dr_willis | nu2buntu, it seems to work easier if all the partitions are primaries. | 12:17 |
| rudolfmdlt | crow, it is a packadge that contains all the files you need to be able to compile and build a C++ application | 12:17 |
| mbrandt | KyleSloderbeck, what is your chipset for your videocard? | 12:17 |
| crow | ok thanks | 12:17 |
| jacobian__ | can I install a hardy package in gutsy? | 12:17 |
| danand | davit - did you shutdown X before you removed the desktop | 12:18 |
| simplexio | KyleSloderbeck: i810 driver in X? then those effects wont work | 12:18 |
| rudolfmdlt | crow, it is not an IDE though. if want an easy to use IDE to program C or C++ in, try CodeBlocks | 12:18 |
| KyleSloderbeck | i810 Intl | 12:18 |
| KyleSloderbeck | Yes that is it | 12:18 |
| icesword | LukeL, | 12:18 |
| cjsstables | Morning all | 12:18 |
| neeto | mbrandt: I hope to one day achieve your status as the gatekeeper to the world outside... the world of unlimited bandwidth, piracy and illegal warez. I dream of a time when I can frollic in the feilds of ripped Xvid DVD Screeners and cracked versions of anything... one day... | 12:18 |
| mbrandt | KyleSloderbeck , won't work | 12:19 |
| davit | Opps, No. | 12:19 |
| KyleSloderbeck | Is there a way to get around that? | 12:19 |
| danand | davit - can you reboot the machine? | 12:19 |
| KyleSloderbeck | I had it yesterday where it was working with the same graphics. But I reinstalled and have no idea how it happened. | 12:19 |
| nu2buntu | Dr_willis: i'm not sure what are they..primaries or logicals... but i cant increase the size of my ext3 ... any way to solve this ? | 12:19 |
| icesword | LukeL, i guess you are from Canada | 12:19 |
| cjsstables | quick question. running ubuntu 7.10 installed with generic kernels which kernels should I use if I have a dual opteron system? or should I reinstall with amd64? | 12:19 |
| LukeL | icesword yeah I am, but my hostname ends in .com so it's sometimes confused | 12:20 |
| simplexio | KyleSloderbeck: you sure that driver didnt change ? | 12:20 |
| hischild | cjsstables, unless have a real reason (4gb ram, special programs, reasons to use x64) stick with the 32bit kernels (generic) | 12:20 |
| Dr_willis | nu2buntu, see what gparted says tehy are., You may have to resize one at a time, and do it in several stages. You Might have resize one shrinking it. and putting the space in the next one by enlarging it. | 12:20 |
| cjsstables | yes i have 4 gb ram | 12:20 |
| hischild | cjsstables, >4gb | 12:21 |
| icesword | LukeL, how did you set that complex hostname and also that long | 12:21 |
| davit | I go back to remote, and start again. First reboot, then shutdown X (how is this done - startx stop?) | 12:21 |
| Dr_willis | nu2buntu, not sure if gparted can convert extended/logicals into primaries - That would be nice if it could. | 12:21 |
| KyleSloderbeck | Simplexio : I'm not sure, it may have.. I did install different chipsets on the synaptic package manager. | 12:21 |
| cjsstables | will there be any any performce enhancement | 12:21 |
| icesword | LukeL, i thought you use a proxy server | 12:21 |
| nu2buntu | Dr_willis: if i create another (new) ext3 partition... can i use that partition to install applications for ubuntu ? | 12:21 |
| Blekkaard | Hello there ! Can anyone help me please? How can I change the standard input on my Ubuntu 7.10 from DOLLAR to EURO? | 12:21 |
| KyleSloderbeck | Wasn't sure what I was downloading.. Just experimenting a little bit. | 12:21 |
| danand | davit - /etc/init.d/gdm stop should stop X | 12:21 |
| hischild | cjsstables, be aware that there is a lot more work involved in getting an x64 system working ... yes there would be an improvement in performance | 12:21 |
| neeto | FREEDOM WILL BE MINE! I AM A SLAVE NO LONGER! HEAR ME NOW RESNET! YOU CANNOT CONTROL ME! YOU CANNOT OWN ME! I AM HUMAN! I HAVE A RIGHT TO PIRATE AND PLUNDER EVERY TORRENT TRACKER ON THE INTERWEBZ!! | 12:22 |
| Dr_willis | nu2buntu, normally the package manager puts stuff in the proper subdirs under /, you dont have a single dir that apps go in. You could move some other stuff like /home to a new partition if you wanted I guess. | 12:22 |

| nu2buntu | Dr_willis: once i resize them one by one .. i will have one huge unlocated space which still... i cant move it to my primary / ext3 | 12:22 |
| neeto | HAHA! | 12:23 |
| hischild | cjsstables, all the same software is available, yet you will have to compile some yourself as it isn't available for x64 | 12:23 |
| neeto | You use the bot to do your bidding | 12:23 |
| neeto | but your plans have been foiled. | 12:23 |
| Dr_willis | nu2buntu, perhaps. perhaps you will be able to move it to one of them. resizing / can result in the uuid changing also. That may cause issues. | 12:23 |
| hischild | neeto, no :-) it did :-) | 12:23 |
| cjsstables | ok cool. what if I just installed the -server kernels instead | 12:23 |
| neeto | I win again Dr. Willis... a formidable opponent | 12:23 |
| neeto | nonetheless | 12:23 |
| davit | thks ...its just reboothin now | 12:24 |
| hischild | cjsstables, what are you trying to get running? what goal should it serve? | 12:24 |
| Blekkaard | Hello there ! Can anyone help me please? How can I change the standard input on my Ubuntu 7.10 from DOLLAR to EURO? | 12:24 |
| debianism | help please where can i get rt73 driver for my gutsy | 12:24 |
| cjsstables | looking for a high end work station | 12:24 |
| hischild | cjsstables, ok ... what are you going to use it for? | 12:24 |
| cjsstables | video editing | 12:24 |
| danand | Blekkaard - look in System -> preferences -> keyboard | 12:24 |
| larson9999 | linux rocks! | 12:24 |
| icesword | who can tell me,what is that choice in alternate cd ,oem is for what | 12:25 |
| davit | X stop I think. no process running on X | 12:25 |
| hischild | cjsstables, have you made your choice on video software yet? | 12:25 |
| danand | larson9999 - GNU/linux!! | 12:25 |
| Blekkaard | danand It's not the keyboard: I'm using Librepos and it uses Dollars in stead of Euro's (cause I am in Belgium) | 12:25 |
| icesword | who can tell me,what is that choice in alternate cd ,oem is for what | 12:25 |
| nu2buntu | Dr_willis: my only solution is ... reformat the whole hdd..and create new partions accordingly i guess...too bad i make a sloppy mistake giving winxp 75% space of which i dont really need right now... i have plans to use winxp on virtualbox instead... how many Gbs would it take ? | 12:25 |
| Dr_willis | icesword, that lets a company like dell or whoever. make a 'restore/fast install' type cd. | 12:25 |
| erUSUL | icesword: for installing without a user so oem (see dell) can sell preinstalled machines | 12:25 |
| cjsstables | no0tic: just investigating. we are looking to record performace horses and their gate (how they run) and then play it back for analysis | 12:25 |
| Dr_willis | nu2buntu, i normally give my virtual machines about 8gb :) | 12:25 |
| larson9999 | danand, ah, yes... the GNU nazis. i prefer to do without. GNU rocks, too, though. | 12:26 |
| hischild | cjsstables, i know i'm asking a lot of questions ... but it's the only way to be sure that it runs smooth | 12:26 |
| simplexio | cjsstables: not bad idea to google about rt-kernel for ubuntu | 12:26 |
| arnath | anyone know if the laptop harddisk problem has been fixed yet? (the one where the harddisk spins up & down too much, causing it to die earlier) | 12:26 |
| nu2buntu | Dr_willis: see... i only got 4 gbs left on my ext3... and 16gbs unused on ntfs :( | 12:26 |
| elkbuntu | larson9999, please play nice | 12:26 |
| hischild | simplexio, rt-kernel is real time kernel right? | 12:26 |
| cjsstables | I'm guessing alot of rewinding with the video software and alot of zooming | 12:26 |
| simplexio | hischild: yeh | 12:27 |
| Dr_willis | nu2buntu, sounds like you need to go buy another HD. | 12:27 |
| nu2buntu | Dr_willis: thx for your advise doc | 12:27 |
| larson9999 | elkbuntu, what's that? linux for elk? | 12:27 |
| Dr_willis | nu2buntu, next time make the partitions all primaries if you can rember. | 12:27 |
| simplexio | or low-latency, thogh i dont have no idea how good are they or are they stull usefull. i use custom kernel | 12:27 |
| nu2buntu | Dr_willis: i got another extra 80gb just for storing files | 12:27 |
| cjsstables | and we will be storing video clips to so we can compare afte making shoeing and equipment changes | 12:27 |
| davit | now the apt-get remove does not find ubuntu-desktop, but is still there as I just shut it down | 12:27 |
| danand | larson9999 - GNU nazis??? what? if GNU didn't exist you would _not_ have the linux kernel. the linux kernel is compiled using GNU compilers | 12:27 |
| Qtpaxa | ...I have ubuntu on my toshiba and a dead hd | 12:28 |

| Dr_willis | nu2buntu, 80? heh heh.. :) thats all? You dont want to know the storage i got on my machines. | 12:28 |
| tokyoahead | guys how can fine-tune screen-effects? i can set it only to three levels... | 12:28 |
| nu2buntu | Dr_willis: i will work on it right away...thx for reminding :) | 12:28 |
| Qtpaxa | I had to replace it last week | 12:28 |
| elkbuntu | larson9999, yes, special inputs for their hoofs. are you here to ask or help, or to be annoying | 12:28 |

| hischild | simplexio, rt-kernel ... i know they have advantages ... but can you explain them quick or shall i just look it up? | 12:28 |
| mooboo1 | i have 2.13 GHz CPU, but in /proc/cpuinfo, "cpu MHz" says 1603.000, why? | 12:28 |
| cjsstables | ok | 12:28 |
| danand | elkbuntu - grrrr... :) - just bugs me a bit! | 12:28 |
| elkbuntu | danand, i know, no need to feed though | 12:28 |
| nu2buntu | Dr_willis: yea... i usually burn them to dvds to save space. i'm sure you got more ! | 12:29 |
| tokyoahead | Dr_willis: thanks! | 12:29 |
| erUSUL | hischild: rt real time better responsiveness latencies etc (see music production or pseudo real time systems) | 12:29 |
| Dr_willis | nu2buntu, been doing that all night to free up some space also. | 12:29 |
| danand | elkbuntu - i just got dragged into that didn't I .... baahhh | 12:29 |
| erUSUL | mooboo1: maybe frequencie scaling is enabled | 12:29 |
| nu2buntu | Dr_willis: what's the best burning software on ubuntu ? | 12:29 |
| hischild | cjsstables, yeah ... like simplexio suggested .... look up rt-kernel ... | 12:29 |
| Dr_willis | nu2buntu, i use k3b | 12:29 |
| Ibycus | hi all, does anyone know where i can go to request that the ubuntu repos use the latest stable version of evolution? | 12:29 |
| mooboo1 | erUSUL, is that good or bad? | 12:29 |
| cjsstables | ok thanks guys | 12:30 |
| larson9999 | elkbuntu, i thought maybe elkbuntu was another flavor of ubuntu. there are tons. | 12:30 |
| hischild | cjsstables, and unless your video software supports 64bit, stay with 32bit | 12:30 |
| simplexio | hischild: i did some testing with jack audio system, w/o rt kernel latency was 50->100ms with rt-kernel is was usually under 10ms, but i dont do audio so | 12:30 |
| nu2buntu | Dr_willis: and also for creating dvd movies? i usually use convertxtodvd ... which is so helpful | 12:30 |
| Dr_willis | Ibycus, it will get updated with the next release most likely. thats how ubuntu works. | 12:30 |
| hischild | simplexio, aah ... that is kind of a huge difference | 12:30 |
| arnath | anyone know if the laptop harddisk problem has been fixed yet? (the one where the harddisk spins up & down too much, causing it to die earlier) | 12:30 |
| erUSUL | mooboo1: i have it enabled too and it gets to full speed when needed and lower speed when iddle you save power | 12:30 |
| nu2buntu | Dr_willis: yes k3b is on my system already :) | 12:30 |
| Dr_willis | nu2buntu, i rarely convert to dvd movies. Ive used that devded program a few times. | 12:30 |
| mooboo1 | erUSUL, oh awesome! :D | 12:30 |
| simplexio | cjsstables: i recommend that you upgrade kernel to attleast .23 or .24 for me change from .22 to .23 was noticeable on desktop use | 12:31 |
| erUSUL | simplexio: new cfs scheduler ;) | 12:31 |
| Ibycus | Dr_willis: well its a bug fix version of evolution, not a new branch. ubuntu has 2.12.1, latest is 2.12.3. I was under the impression that ubuntu released bug fixes on the same version of a program? | 12:31 |
| simplexio | erUSUL: yeh. | 12:31 |
| larson9999 | danand, yeah, i just think those who insist on GNU/linux are a bit heavy handed. why not GNU/ubuntu et al? | 12:31 |
| simplexio | .23 is muuch nicer to use on desktop | 12:31 |
| Bad_boy | Guys, how i can list .* files | 12:31 |
| nu2buntu | Dr_willis: i never know how virtualbox works... will all softwares installed work if i open them through ubuntu? | 12:31 |
| Dr_willis | Ibycus, depends on the bug. | 12:31 |
| Qtpaxa | Linux Ubuntu | 12:32 |
| cjsstables | ok. I installed the meta package for the multimedia. hope that will be a good start | 12:32 |
| mooboo1 | .24 isnt nicer? | 12:32 |
| erUSUL | Bad_boy: ls -a | 12:32 |
| Qtpaxa | It's not another SO | 12:32 |
| Bad_boy | erUSUL: cheers bud | 12:32 |
| cjsstables | and am sure to at least upgrade to .24 | 12:32 |
| Qtpaxa | (in my opinion) | 12:32 |
| simplexio | mooboo1: i didnt notice any difference between .23 and .24 | 12:32 |
| Bad_boy | ls-a | 12:32 |
| Ibycus | Dr_willis: I only say this because I encountered a nasty bug in evolution that causes it to crash instantly on opening a particular type of email message | 12:32 |
| mooboo1 | simplexio, oh | 12:32 |
| Dr_willis | nu2buntu, virtual box and vmware emulate a whole machine so most windows apps will work ok. | 12:32 |
| cjsstables | thanks guys | 12:32 |
| simplexio | now running .24.2 | 12:32 |
| Ibycus | Dr_willis: apparently it's fixed in 2.12.3 | 12:32 |
| mooboo1 | does anyone experience their desktop get non-responsive or frozen sometimes? | 12:33 |
| Dr_willis | Ibycus, file a bug report then i guess. and note its fixed. it may be in backports or some other repos allready. or in the works. | 12:33 |
| simplexio | mooboo1: but .24 should be little better in scheluding on other stuff | 12:33 |
| Dr_willis | !info evolution | 12:33 |

| mooboo1 | oh | 12:33 |
| Ibycus | Dr_willis: do i submit a bug report on launchpad? | 12:33 |
| mooboo1 | is it possible that an application can use 100% of CPU? | 12:33 |
| lexy1997 | I am using the nvidia restricted drivers through gutsy but desktop effects won't start any ideas? | 12:33 |
| cjsstables | currently running kernel 2.6.22-14 #1 smp | 12:33 |
| Dr_willis | Ibycus, might want to search there first - see if theres allready a thread on it. | 12:33 |
| Ibycus | Dr_willis: I went to launchpad and couldn't actually find a link that says "submit bug" - but ill have a search first anyway | 12:34 |
| mooboo1 | is it possible that an application can cause the system to become unresponsive? | 12:34 |
| larson9999 | moobol seems to be a bit of an issue for many. especially with gutsy. for me it the combinatino of nvidia+gutsy+power management not playing nice. i disabled the power management services and haven't had any locksups or temporary freezes since. | 12:34 |
| mooboo1 | oh | 12:34 |
| simplexio | mooboo1: badly coded GUI one, yes | 12:34 |
| mooboo1 | simplexio, shouldn't it be impossible? | 12:35 |
| nu2buntu | Dr_willis: i will try virtualbox as soon as i get space :p thx ... | 12:35 |
| simplexio | mooboo1: i have no eproblems, no compiz, systems load over 5 and desktop runs fine ( X2 3800+, 2G RAM, 6600GT nvidia) | 12:35 |

| AquaFox | My title bars are HUGE. | 12:36 |
| mooboo1 | simplexio, right now .24 | 12:36 |
| AquaFox | Why is that? | 12:36 |
| neeto | So for some reason, the back/forward buttons on my mouse, are mapped by default to right/middle click. I can map the keys using btnx, but the right/middle click functions remain.

| tokyoahead | how can I find out on which HD is a system to install it into the grub bootmenu? | 13:02 |
| nerdsquad3210 | i ear roasted gnu is a jaw breaker | 13:03 |
| nerdsquad3210 | grub defaults to FreeBSD nomenclature for Hard drives | 13:04 |
| hischild | can anyone suggest a good live-feed video editing program? | 13:04 |
| KyleSloderbeck | Would anyone be willing to try and somehow fix my problem with the visual affects. I've tried like 4 times in the last hour and I guess my i810 will not allow me to. Thanks to the people who pointed that out. Any help would be amazing, i'm bored and would like to get this baby rollin' | 13:07 |
| erUSUL | hischild: LiVe ?? | 13:07 |
| hischild | erUSUL, yeah ... it's for the following situation: | 13:08 |
| ArmedKing | Hey all, When booting from the live cd the Console has colors for directorys and file types. but after install i dont have that. any way to get it? | 13:09 |
| hischild | erUSUL, once a month we have a youth meeting where we have a digital camera hooked up to a laptop by firewire. We want to be able to edit the live stream from this camera and then project it onto a beamer connected by a VGA cable | 13:09 |
| KyleSloderbeck | I hate being a noob lol | 13:09 |
| hak5fan | Hi I'm trying to get pcmanfm to show icons in my custem | 13:10 |
| hak5fan | Hi I'm trying to get pcmanfm to show icons in my custem de..... I have no icons installed how do I do that | 13:10 |
| stdin | ArmedKing: add this to your ~/.bashrc: alias ls='ls --color=auto' | 13:10 |
| Warfy | I have a problem with some disappearing files and folders on a ext3 formatted drive. I tried rebooting - running 7.10 all latest patchs | 13:10 |
| stdin | ArmedKing: next time you login it will be read, but you can do "alias ls='ls --color=auto'" now to save logging out/in | 13:10 |
| yeara | hi... | 13:11 |
| erUSUL | hischild: http://lives.sourceforge.net/ | 13:12 |
| nerdsquad3210 | disappearing files ? | 13:12 |
| nerdsquad3210 | ubuntu does that ? | 13:12 |
| KyleSloderbeck | Is it possible to have someone get in my computer and fix my problem? I know it's risky and nearly dumb I suppose but this is boring haha | 13:12 |
| nerdsquad3210 | :D | 13:12 |
| hischild | erUSUL, hmm ... let me have a look :-) | 13:12 |
| ere4sli | hak5fan, edit - preferences - desktop - show desktop icons | 13:12 |
| Warfy | yeah I know - I was very supprized to have them dissapear | 13:13 |
| simplexio | im feeling lucky today.. just enabled compiz :) | 13:13 |
| adaptr | what video ? | 13:13 |
| hak5fan | ere4si, oh.... not Desktop icones... but I don't have any gtk compatible icon set installed..... the files in the file manager have no icons | 13:14 |
| tokyoahead | guys if I want to add a HD to the grub boot menu, how do I find out which HDx,x it is? I only know its the only partition on /dev/sdc1... | 13:14 |
| adaptr | tokyoahead: grub itself can tell you if you run it | 13:14 |
| hischild | erUSUL, woah ... that looks nice o.O | 13:14 |
| adaptr | tokyoahead: but Ubuntu adds disks as required, no need for you to do anything | 13:14 |
| tokyoahead | adaptr: so I run grub form the command line? | 13:14 |
| adaptr | yes | 13:14 |
| sharkp | l3on: ci sei ancora? | 13:15 |
| Warfy | nerdsquad3210: It was one drive only - all the other drives are working correctly | 13:15 |
| yeara | quit | 13:15 |
| nerdsquad3210 | setup up a raid | 13:15 |
| ks3 | KyleSloderbeck, have you tried running compiz.real --replace? | 13:15 |
| KyleSloderbeck | Nope | 13:16 |
| KyleSloderbeck | I'll try that | 13:16 |
| nerdsquad3210 | what FS are you using ? | 13:16 |
| l3on | sharkp: yep | 13:16 |
| Warfy | ext2 or 3 | 13:16 |
| ks3 | KyleSloderbeck, if that doesn't work, you can run gtk-window-decorator --replace to get things back to normal | 13:16 |
| tokyoahead | adaptr: I ran it, how do I ask it to tell me what devices It found? | 13:16 |
| sharkp | l3on: (preferisci l'inglese o l'italiano?) | 13:17 |
| nerdsquad3210 | use rasiserfs its the linux killer FS :P | 13:17 |

| sharkp | jk_: no.. | 13:18 |
| cofff | hi'' | 13:18 |

| jk_ | but they said there was a version for warrock on ubuntu? | 13:18 |
| soul | im need put subtittles in mplayer and totem under video image | 13:18 |
| tokyoahead | adaptr: ah I missed a space before the ( | 13:19 |
| sharkp | jk_: really? So, I don't know... | 13:19 |
| adaptr | tokyoahead: yeah, sorry - i always forget that | 13:19 |
| KyleSloderbeck | ks3: That made it basically so i can't move anything that is opened. No x's in the top right or anything. | 13:19 |
| Warfy | on another note - is there a way to stop Gparted scanning for a floppy drive? | 13:19 |
| crow | do I need to unistall my intel c++ compiler, before installing gcc? | 13:19 |
| ere4sli | hak5fan, that should happen... | 13:19 |
| pope_ | jk_: What turns up if you google: ubuntu, warrock? | 13:19 |
| ks3 | KyleSloderbeck, ok, you can run metacity --replace to get those back. did it give any useful errors? | 13:20 |
| sharkp | l3on: so?could you help me? | 13:20 |
| jk_ | some forums come up nad some say click here to download | 13:20 |
| tokyoahead | adaptr: so I can see which aone is dev/sdc1? | 13:20 |
| bullgard4 | Where can one find the definitions applicable to the terms used in /proc/meminfo? (http://ubuntuusers.de/paste/53182/) | 13:20 |
| adaptr | tokyoahead: no, unfortunately grub names them 0, 1, 2... | 13:20 |
| tokyoahead | adaptr: ok, so I have to guess and try? | 13:20 |
| adaptr | tokyoahead: but you can detect which ones are bootable cq have grub data on them | 13:20 |
| jk_ | should i try to nstall warrock with the terminal? | 13:20 |
| adaptr | tokyoahead: I presume in all this that your new disk has an actual OS on it that you wish to boot ? | 13:21 |
| pope_ | give it a go, worst it'll do is tell you it couldn't find the package ^_^ | 13:21 |
| ks3 | tokyoahead, check /boot/grub/device.map. it shows which linux devices map to which grub drives | 13:21 |
| adaptr | ks3: good one | 13:21 |
| nerdsquad3210 | i friend of mine told me that if you dont belive in hacker i should try linux ... | 13:21 |
| tokyoahead | adaptr: yes I unplugged it during linux setup | 13:21 |
| * adaptr never messes with grub anymore, it's hardly ever necessary | 13:21 | |
| tokyoahead | ks3: thanks I will try that | 13:21 |
| nerdsquad3210 | i friend of mine told me that if you dont belive in hackers you should try linux ... | 13:21 |
| KyleSloderbeck | ks3: It said a certain thing was not installed. Would you like me to try that again and see what wasn't installed? | 13:21 |
| tokyoahead | ks3: there is only the first HD in there | 13:22 |
| jk_ | how cna i make my dektop to a giant cube? | 13:22 |
| ks3 | KyleSloderbeck, sure | 13:22 |
| tokyoahead | ks3: when I installed grub the other hds were not installed, maye thats why | 13:22 |
| adaptr | jk_: crush it in a car compactor, I think | 13:22 |
| joff | is anyone any good with bluetooth headset connections? and patient enough to explain something to a newb? | 13:22 |

| KyleSloderbeck | Does anyone know how to change my graphics card driver? Every time i change it, it changes right back. <--- dummy | 13:34 |
| adaptr | so how did you change it ? | 13:34 |
| frost0 | joff, it is just a very gray area...i want to undersand the law before i do anything. | 13:34 |
| RootyRootRootW00 | HI, I've broken some of my packages, how do I fix them? | 13:35 |
| joff | frost0 then i suggest you search the legal portion of microsofts website | 13:35 |
| brobostigon | good afternoon everyone. | 13:35 |
| frost0 | joff, fun ! :) | 13:35 |
| joff | frost0 oh yes, billy boy and his rules :) | 13:35 |
| ere4si | KyleSloderbeck, in a terminal type sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 13:36 |
| scraga2 | what's the audio program that has the ipod plugin? | 13:36 |
| Warfy | what is the best way to automatically backup files to another drive... not a raid, and also get it to automatically backup on boot and as soon as a file is added or changed | 13:36 |
| ere4si | KyleSloderbeck, and choose the vid driver at the appropriate window | 13:36 |
| brobostigon | !backup | Warfy | 13:37 |
| ubotu | Warfy: There are many ways to back your system up. Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi - See also !sbackup and !cloning | 13:37 |
| KyleSloderbeck | ere4si : I did that in the terminal and it asks for my password and i hit enter (have no password) and it just brings the kyle@kyle-laptop up again. | 13:37 |
| joff | frost0 just a sugestion but if you want to cover all bases you could install the windows os with virualbox and run what you need through that, as its a full version it cannot be contested | 13:37 |
| KyleSloderbeck | ere4si : nevermind it brought it up. | 13:38 |
| ere4si | KyleSloderbeck, your user should have a password - the login password | 13:38 |
| frost0 | joff, hold on...what is the command for free space? | 13:38 |
| _Oz_ | I have a window that won't close. How can I find the process and kill it in the terminal? | 13:38 |
| frost0 | joff, again* via terminal. | 13:38 |
| joff | ok i can get my machine to talk to the headset, unfortuanatly i cannot get it to run as an audio device | 13:38 |
| _Oz_ | I mainly need the command to "list all processes" and then I think I type "kill (ID)" | 13:38 |
| Xk2c | !fglrx | 13:38 |
| ubotu | To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 13:38 |
| brobostigon | frost0: df -h | 13:38 |
| frost0 | brobostigon, thx | 13:39 |
| frost0 | joff, i have 8.6 gb free. | 13:39 |
| ere4si | _Oz_, top in the terminal is the command - then hit k then type the pid | 13:39 |
| frost0 | joff, is that enough? | 13:39 |
| _Oz_ | ere4si: thanks | 13:39 |
| joff | should be enough if you just use it for basic apps | 13:39 |
| KyleSloderbeck | ere4si : I did that and chose the driver Intel which is the one I wanted now i'm at the 2nd screen and at the bottom it says ok. I can't hit enter though. | 13:40 |
| ere4si | _Oz_, there is a panel app called force quit that I use for that - it's easier | 13:40 |
| frost0 | joff, no 3d support....correct? | 13:40 |
| hischild | erUSUL, checked out some lives demo's ... that's seriously amazing .. that's _exactly_ what i was lookin for | 13:40 |
| ere4si | KyleSloderbeck, hit tab then enter | 13:40 |

| simplexio | does anyone have idea why mplayer dies when compiz is enabled | 13:41 |
| joff | frost0 have a look http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/VirtualBox | 13:42 |
| ere4si | KyleSloderbeck, just select the defaults it brings up except maybe screen resolution | 13:42 |
| simplexio | mplayer video driver is xv | 13:42 |
| brobostigon | simplexio: run mplayer from terminal and see what errors are produced | 13:42 |
| joff | frost0 i havent used any of them in a while however i do run Warcraft in Wine | 13:42 |

| joff | frost0 thats the whole point of it :) | 13:43 |

| frost0 | cyrus, huh...maybe different game.....what are you talking about :) | 13:45 |
| s0u][ight | it never did something like that before | 13:45 |
| KyleSloderbeck | ere4si : ok, i'm finished doing that. It has also created a backup it says. Do I need to restart or has it already done its thing? | 13:45 |
| cyrusjunior | frost0, it is all good =). I am going to eat breakfast. Later everyone. | 13:45 |

| _Oz_ | question: is there a good disk management tool that lets me easily see how much data is stored on all my hard drives (and can then show you directories in order of descending size so I can find where the "big stuff" is? | 13:46 |
| _Oz_ | ) | 13:46 |
| simplexio | pah. now it works, thoght X died for somereason | 13:47 |
| obfusco | xidarian: you could write a script to do that... | 13:47 |
| jrib | _Oz_: accessories -> disk usage analyzer | 13:47 |
| ere4si | _Oz_, I have disk usage analyser in my menu | 13:47 |
| _Oz_ | perfect | 13:47 |
| _Oz_ | thanks | 13:47 |
| frost0 | is it possible to get cedega for free (legal) ? | 13:48 |
| ompaul | bullgard4, you need to attack google with a definitions /proc/meminfo http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Procfs can help some, be aware there is some speculation that tells you that some of what you read is not what it appears to be documented at | 13:48 |
| ompaul | s/at/as | 13:48 |
| brobostigon | frost0: yes, use wine,the both use wine | 13:48 |
| _Oz_ | anyone here use mediamaster? | 13:48 |
| frost0 | brobostigon, but, isn't there a cvs release? of cedega which is better for games? | 13:49 |
| ere4si | KyleSloderbeck, is it better now? | 13:49 |
| brobostigon | frost0: no idea | 13:49 |
| RootyRootRootW00 | Hi, What Does This Mean? libglib2.0-dev: Depends: libglib2.0-0 (=2.14.1-1ubuntu1) but 2.15.6-0ubuntu2 is to be installed | 13:49 |

| KyleSloderbeck | ere4si : yes, it is 945G | 13:54 |
| jrib | xidarian_: I'd go with python, it has a csv module. But any scripting language you are comfortable with would work | 13:54 |
| kasi | is there a known problem with wireless network on 7.10? i keep disconnecting after a few hours, and i cant reconnect unless i reboot my computer. | 13:54 |

| jrib | RootyRootRootW00: anyway, I see the problem. You have a libc6 version installed that is not the gutsy version in the repos. Why? | 13:57 |

| ere4si | apurva, you may need a better vid driver | 14:08 |
| ompaul | apurva, that would be your video driver - what kind of video card have you got? | 14:09 |
| apurva | i have installed the latest nvidia drivers | 14:09 |
| chazco | ere4si - It seems to be something to do with Ubuntu and the msfonts. In OO without them everything is too big, but installed it works fine. In Textmaker without them everything works fine, but with them its too small. I need them installed for other stuff, but prefer TM over OO... | 14:09 |

| wols_ | !anyone | lazynano | 14:11 |

| ubotu | mcp_: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 14:12 |

| Mr_Psychopath | Go to Synaptic | 14:27 |
| Mr_Psychopath | click "Packages" | 14:28 |
| sarixe | so what does that mean? | 14:28 |
| wols_ | sarixe: do you 4GB and only 3G are currently usable? | 14:28 |
| Mr_Psychopath | then "Force Version" | 14:28 |
| sarixe | no, i have 3gb | 14:28 |
| apurva | wols_ i set the display to 1280x800 | 14:28 |
| wols_ | RootyRootRootW00: you cannot downgrade with apt | 14:28 |
| sarixe | i know this because i ordered it this way | 14:28 |
| wols_ | RootyRootRootW00: only manually. why do you have 2.7-5? | 14:28 |
| ompaul | RootyRootRootW00, it is so core to the os that it would be faster to backup all your data and do a fresh install | 14:28 |
| Mr_Psychopath | That's not true, I've downgraded through Synaptic before. | 14:28 |

| ompaul | Mr_Psychopath, not with libc you won't | 14:30 |
| Mr_Psychopath | wols: Good point. | 14:30 |

| Mr_Psychopath | Alright, you've got me there. | 14:30 |
| sarixe | wols_ : is it bad that i have 3gb? because i know i don't have 4 | 14:30 |
| RootyRootRootW00 | ompaul. Thanks: Do I use the regular gutsy CD or the Alternative CD? | 14:30 |
| wols_ | sarixe: not bad, just odd. x86-64 usually gets useful at 4GB since that is an amount a normal 32bit install usually can't use. for a desktop 64bit is a hassle since theris no java plugin or flash plugin | 14:31 |
| ompaul | RootyRootRootW00, your call both give the same end result | 14:31 |
| wols_ | sarixe: ubuntu itself works but some prorpietary stuff doesn't | 14:31 |
| sarixe | wols_ : so it's probably better to stay in 32-bit then? | 14:31 |

| ompaul | Pirate_Hunter, wols_ is correctly saying, you are giving information that is incomplete -- from the first command prompt to the last one is what wols_ wants | 15:20 |
| wols_ | efren30: haven't what? | 15:21 |
| rinaldi_ | wols_: yeh i know, its something like bad checksums i think, cdcheck either missed them out or did something. anyways it made it work. what sthe best data recovery app if any? | 15:21 |
| amenado | efren30-> is the extra selected or none? | 15:21 |
| efren30 | wols:havent reinstalled video card | 15:21 |

| ehird | Package fvwm95 is not available, but is referred to by another package. | 15:26 |
| ehird | This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or | 15:26 |
| ehird | is only available from another source | 15:26 |
| ehird | :( | 15:26 |
| wols_ | Pirate_Hunter: good. not run "start_epsxe.sh" hopefully it works | 15:27 |
| EnvoyRising | wols_, i know that. hence it is legit. from what i remember they actually have contracts with particular radio companies | 15:27 |
| ere4si | Rooty: where are you trying to copy to - do you have permission for it | 15:27 |
| EnvoyRising | record companies i mean. don't know why i said radio | 15:27 |
| wols_ | EnvoyRising: doesn't matter. you cannot listen to DRMed wma files on ubuntu so your question is moot | 15:27 |
| skipp | could anyone plz tell me how to install warsow (unified.zip >> official website) any help would be very much appriciated | 15:27 |
| Pirate_Hunter | wols_: now how do i actually run it, do i double click on the one in loca/bin or the one in the espxe folder? | 15:27 |
| wols_ | Pirate_Hunter: local/bin | 15:28 |
| Pirate_Hunter | wols_: will try | 15:28 |
| EnvoyRising | wols_, i could have sworn napster allowed downloading of different formats. also, if it's mute, why is there a knapster package in repos? | 15:28 |
| wols_ | !info knapster | 15:28 |
| ubotu | Package knapster does not exist in gutsy | 15:28 |

| EnvoyRising | wols_, would you like me to show you a screenshot? perhaps its because i'm using backports or pre-release updates, but its in there | 15:29 |

| wols_ | efren30: direct rendering: yes? | 15:29 |
| wols_ | EnvoyRising: screenshot of what? | 15:29 |
| tinman | wols_: I managed to get everything but the mouse working, but I want to reinstall xserver-xorg, I cannot caoonect to the internet from the recovery shell, can I apt-get from a live cd and install it in my root partition (sda2) ? | 15:29 |
| TriEdge32 | bazhan: But where? I thinked this is a good place because all of you use linux | 15:29 |
| Pirate_Hunter | wols_: nope dont work I click on it and than choose run from terminal and the same happen, epsxe.exe doesnt popup | 15:29 |

| bazhang | TriEdge32: good way to get kicked ;] | 15:30 |
| wols_ | efren30: why? | 15:30 |
| EnvoyRising | you piped me a bot saying the package didn't exist. i just searched for it and it does exist. are you suggesting that the to programs go off of the old napster model or what? | 15:30 |
| wols_ | tinman: what happens if you boot nromally? | 15:30 |
| bazhang | efren30: from the restricted driver manager | 15:30 |
| TriEdge32 | bazhang: Where may I can find some team members, that use Linux, normaly... | 15:30 |
| fabio | wols_ is a bot | 15:30 |
| wols_ | bazhang: not intel drivers. they are open source | 15:30 |
| bazhang | TriEdge32: #linux perhaps | 15:30 |
| wols_ | fabio: stop that | 15:30 |
| Pirate_Hunter | wols_: it dont give error, terminal comes up than shuts down very fast and the start_epsxe.sh is supposed to run epsxe.exe in ubuntu | 15:30 |
| fabio | so he able to say sensible things | 15:31 |
| tinman | wols_: my xserver faled to load, you probably forgot but you were helping me yesterday with this | 15:31 |
| wols_ | Pirate_Hunter: run it in terminal | 15:31 |

| amenado | Pirate_Hunter-> I suggested to you to add -x on the first line.. so you can see step by step | 15:31 |
| EnvoyRising | i was under the impression that only one bot was allowed here? the official ubuto bot or whatever it's called | 15:31 |

I'm runny hardy by the way. I'd like my files to REMAIN open :) | 16:09 |

| Jorge_ | what is the default username and password in ubuntu? | 16:36 |
| amenado | tinman you can mount your / partition from hard disk right? | 16:36 |
| erUSUL | Jorge_: there is none you canfigure one during install | 16:36 |
| FreeFull | rinaldi_, it doesn't show in Restricted Driver Manager | 16:37 |
| Jorge_ | erUSUL | 16:37 |
| bertvdp | hi, I'm having a problem with vmware server on a 64-bit system, it seems to need the 32-bit version of libgnome-vfs, would it hurt the system if I also installed the 32-bit one ? | 16:37 |
| Jorge_ | erUSUL ok, what is the root password? | 16:37 |
| RiPPeR666 | bazhang: problem is though that i cant ever get into terminal with "nvidia" in xorg.conf i loose signal to monitor | 16:37 |
| tinman | amenado: yeah, recovery shell mounts my / with no problem | 16:37 |
| erUSUL | !root | Jorge_ | 16:37 |
| ubotu | Jorge_: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 16:37 |
| erUSUL | Jorge_: there is no root on ubuntu you use «sudo» | 16:38 |
| erUSUL | !sudo | Jorge_ | 16:38 |
| ubotu | Jorge_: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. | 16:38 |

| chazco | Anyone here using Textmaker on Gusty able to explain how to get the msttcorefonts to work correctly? They show up but they're too small, it seems the padding/spacing is missing | 16:38 |
| cbx33 | erUSUL, thanks | 16:38 |
| amenado | tinman then okay, where did you mount / ? you can ls -la /mounpointof"/"etc/ppp and those should have similar files as your liveCD | 16:38 |
| cbx33 | what should i rename them to | 16:38 |
| cbx33 | what process calls them? | 16:38 |

| hendrixski | I want to make a box that's just a firefox broswer, appliance kind of a thing. I have a text-only Ubuntu install, and I heard that a single application can run on Just an X server without a window client. Can anybody point me to a manual to do something like this? | 16:40 |
| amenado | tinman well at least we know once you go to recovery mode in your hard disk you have those files and access to the internet should be available. | 16:40 |
| cbx33 | sorry erUSUL | 16:40 |
| erUSUL | cbx33: yes you configure it here /etc/event.d/* | 16:40 |
| RiPPeR666 | amenado: i can do that with nv in xorg.conf but not with "nvidia" in xorg | 16:40 |
| amenado | tinman so boot from your hard disk, but select the recovery mode | 16:40 |

| rinaldi_ | FreeFull: strange, it has to be either of those chipsets, and the power light isn't on either? i take it you've rebooted since inseting it or inseted it while your pc was off? | 16:41 |
| tinman | amenado: never works though, I get a kernel does not support PPP is this kernel 2.x.x or somethign similar to that error | 16:41 |
| erUSUL | cbx33: move what ? | 16:41 |
| amenado | RiPPeR666-> well, what exactly you want to do? use nvdia? | 16:41 |
| cbx33 | the tty files | 16:41 |
| FreeFull | rinaldi_, I rebooted. | 16:41 |
| cbx33 | erUSUL, the tty files | 16:41 |
| Lartza_ | my internet keeps disconnecting | 16:42 |
| erUSUL | cbx33: yes; but do not lose them XD | 16:42 |
| Newbuntu2 | when I try to "make" a driver, it says "linux/config.h: No such file or directory" What am I doing wrong? | 16:42 |
| FreeFull | rinaldi_, The power light isn't on. | 16:42 |
| tinman | Lartza_: what errors do plog give you? | 16:42 |
| Lartza_ | well my powerline ethernet adaptor shuts down | 16:42 |
| FreeFull | rinaldi_, I'm not sure there is a power light. | 16:42 |
| cbx33 | erUSUL, heheh | 16:42 |
| erUSUL | Newbuntu2: 'sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)' | 16:42 |
| amenado | tinman-> do this... grep -i ppp /mountpointof"/"boot/config-xxx.gz where xxx is whatever config file there is | 16:42 |
| cbx33 | I won't | 16:42 |
| Lartza_ | has anyone used those and noticed same problem | 16:42 |
| ffm | hendrixski: "sudo aptitude install xorg firefox" and then 'xinit -c "firefox" | 16:42 |

| bertvdp | hi, I'm having a problem with vmware server on a 64-bit system, it seems to need the 32-bit version of libgnome-vfs, would it hurt the system if I also installed the 32-bit one ? | 16:42 |
| ffm | hendrixski: the first command installs, the second starts the x serer | 16:42 |
| amenado | tinman we're trying to figure out if your kernel in your hd supports ppp | 16:42 |

| FreeFull | bertvdp, run vmware server using linux32 | 16:43 |
| rinaldi_ | FreeFull: oh ok, its just that mine has a power light and a connection light. im kinda stuck here now | 16:43 |
| RiPPeR666 | amenado: yea i got the same felling | 16:43 |
| tinman | amenado: # grep -i ppp abc/boot/config-xxx.gz | 16:43 |
| tinman | grep: abc/boot/config-xxx.gz: No such file or directory | 16:43 |
| RiPPeR666 | amenado: feeling | 16:43 |

| ffm | PriceChild: I just plugged it in, he'res what appeared in dmesg: http://pastebin.ca/924694 | 16:44 |
| bertvdp | FreeFull, how do you mean ? | 16:44 |
| amenado | RiPPeR666-> well you may just have to settle for nv, if your video does not support nvidia | 16:44 |
| Lartza_ | does anyone know why my a-link powerline ethernet adaptor PA200AV shuts down from time to time? | 16:44 |
| FreeFull | Lartza_, we don't know. This isn't an Ubuntu question, btw. | 16:44 |
| RiPPeR666 | amenado: nv doesnt work either after boot splash it just goes black but i can access terminal | 16:44 |
| amenado | tinman not exact xxx..see what config.* files is in there..i use xxx since i dont know the numbers | 16:44 |

| RiPPeR666 | amenado: with nvidia i cant so it does seem like a step in the wrong direction | 16:45 |
| amenado | RiPPeR666-> it must be your xorg.conf configs...play around with it | 16:45 |

| erUSUL | exerdigit: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree | 16:46 |
| exerdigit | yes... and I even tried following the instructions for it | 16:46 |
| erUSUL | !flash > exerdigit | 16:47 |

| erUSUL | egc: gutsy made it really easy ;) | 16:48 |
| amenado | tinman from what you pasted, it looks like ppp is supported, lets give it a shot, boot from your hd and select the recovery mode..we will establish network from there | 16:48 |
| exerdigit | and heres the thing, i followed the instructions on installing firefox32, then isntalling flash with it... worked great.. for about a minute.. now it says its not enabled. | 16:48 |
| DirtyMonkey | whats the chown command to change owner and group permissions of all files and folders in a directory? | 16:48 |
| storm-ze1 | *can't download the help file | 16:48 |
| Lartza_ | php4 scripts work on php5, am i right? | 16:48 |
| ffm | fbc: just install apache, mysql, and php4, and ubuntu autoconfigures it. | 16:48 |
| ffm | fbc: or just have them use php5. | 16:48 |
| tinman | amenado: I am sure it will give me an error :<, but i will try, so brb | 16:48 |
| Newbuntu2 | ubotu: I don't quite follow your header message. can you explain? | 16:48 |
| amenado | exerdigit-> hang round, ill try to assist, but im assisting someone right now | 16:48 |
| amenado | tinman what did you do to get that error ? | 16:49 |
| exerdigit | no hurry.. thanks | 16:49 |
| fbc | Lartza_: no I don't think so. There are functions that are called diferrently right? | 16:49 |
| DirtyMonkey | anyone | 16:49 |
| erUSUL | DirtyMonkey: man chown ;) | 16:49 |
| fbc | Lartza_: like SCANDIR and serveral other functions right? | 16:49 |

| storm-ze1 | how do I enable web access with guarddog? | 16:54 |
| amenado | exerdigit-> those directories are own by root, so you have to use sudo cp /path/to/where/libjavaplugin.so /usr/lib/firefox*/plugins | 16:54 |
| senselab | man you guys got problems :P | 16:54 |

| rhsanborn | Hey guys, I'm running gutsy on an HP laptop. I'm using ndiswrapper to get wireless with wpasupplicant, and it does work. The only problem I have, is that every time I login, I have to open the network manager and clear out and type my passkey back in to get it to reconnect | 16:57 |
| erUSUL | Newbuntu2: they mention that you need "ln -s /usr/src/linux-headers-`uname -r` /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build " | 16:58 |
| rhsanborn | Any ideas? I'm almost to the point that I'm going to write a short shell script to run the iwconfig commands manually. | 16:58 |
| Newbuntu2 | erUSUL: do I type that in like that? | 16:58 |
| senselab | rhsanborn: try sudo modprobe -r bcm43xx then sudo modprobe bcm43xx | 16:58 |
| senselab | if that works, then you were in the same situation as me | 16:58 |
| amenado | rhsanborn-> you can make it permanent, modify /etc/network/interfaces to put your keys and such | 16:58 |
| ethereality | I guess I'll post my question on ubuntuforums ... thanks though. | 16:58 |
| senselab | oh different problem | 16:58 |
| senselab | sorry :P | 16:58 |
| erUSUL | Newbuntu2: better follow the guide from start to end | 16:59 |

| rhsanborn | amenado, I was hoping the gui interface would make it permanent. If I add the lines to the interface file, will I have to change that if I move my laptop to another wireless network? | 16:59 |

| rhsanborn | senselab, I think that it has found the wireless card correctly, it certainly knows how to use it. It's just isn't convenient. | 17:00 |
| ffm | PriceChild: having a CLI only interface for this music player is probably a good thing, cause it forced me to relearn some basic BASH "while" loops. | 17:00 |
| RoyK_ | hi | 17:01 |
| amenado | rhsanborn-> are they working now using the gui? maybe its just a matter of copying your interfaces file | 17:01 |
| exerdigit | amenado-- ok, i managed to copy that libflashplayer.so into the plugin directories. | 17:01 |
| nettow_ | i re-loaded 7.04 gusty and I have no sound | 17:01 |
| nettow_ | I think it has something to do with a conflict with my tuner cards | 17:01 |
| nettow_ | I have pcHDTV HD-5500 & Dvico FusionHDTV5 Gold | 17:01 |
| nettow_ | everything worked before | 17:01 |
| amenado | exerdigit-> uhuh, and? | 17:01 |
| storm-ze1 | I need help enabling web / apt access with guarddog. | 17:01 |
| scraga2 | ok, 1 more question, using php5-gmp for GMP support do I install it with the php5 package or instead of? | 17:01 |
| RoyK_ | Ubuntu normally doesn't require a password if starting up in single user mode - how can I turn this on? | 17:01 |
| rhsanborn | amenado, It does indeed work using the gui, I just have to manually reconnect it every time I reboot my laptop. | 17:01 |
| nox-Hand | Something is up with my screen in Ubuntu so it starts the cli terminals in really bad resolution: http://omploader.org/vZHFw Anyone know why? | 17:01 |
| noelferreira | my wireless connection is always switching off with ralink driver (rt61). any help? | 17:02 |
| winwinwin | why "quota" shows nothing? | 17:02 |
| jrib | RoyK_: why? | 17:02 |
| amenado | rhsanborn-> you have setup via gui now right? take a look at your /etc/network/interfaces file, are the keys specified there now? then must make a copy | 17:02 |
| exerdigit | amenado-- and nothing... it still says i have an old version of flash, or have javascript disabled when i try to watch a youtube video.. am i supposed to be using the 64 or 32 bit version of firefox here? | 17:02 |
| eifzon | It says operation not permitted when I try tho remove my /var/chroots/users/username? | 17:02 |
| winwinwin | how to see if quota is enabled? | 17:02 |
| micro-02 | Oi | 17:02 |
| erUSUL | Newbuntu2: yeah they are a little bit out of date becouse the drivers are now included (just checked) with ubuntu | 17:02 |
| erUSUL | Newbuntu2: /lib/modules/2.6.22-14-generic/ubuntu/media/gspcav1/gspca.ko | 17:02 |
| bazhang | hi micro-02 | 17:03 |
| erUSUL | Newbuntu2: no need to compile them from source | 17:03 |
| amenado | exerdigit-> look in your about:config to make sure settings are correct | 17:03 |
| gnychis | are the repository mirrors rate limited to 40Kbps for all clients? I can't seem to find a server which I get more than 40K | 17:03 |
| micro-02 | ai | 17:03 |
| Newbuntu2 | erUSUL: so how do I start them/make them work? | 17:03 |
| micro-02 | galera eu preciso coloca o msn aki na maquina | 17:03 |
| rhsanborn | amenado, it is indeed set there. | 17:03 |
| micro-02 | como que eu gassp | 17:03 |
| micro-02 | fasso | 17:03 |
| micro-02 | ? | 17:03 |
| ffm | PriceChild: now a question, the files, when downloaded, now have "filenames" like "C:\Foo\Bar\baz.wma" . (see http://pastebin.ca/924713). Is there a regexp I can use to strip all but what's after the \ ? | 17:03 |
| nettow_ | i re-loaded 7.04 gusty and I have no sound | 17:03 |
| nettow_ | I think it has something to do with a conflict with my tuner cards | 17:03 |
| nettow_ | I have pcHDTV HD-5500 & Dvico FusionHDTV5 Gold | 17:03 |
| nettow_ | everything worked before | 17:03 |
| bazhang | gnychis: not likely--could be your isp | 17:03 |
| amenado | exerdigit-> i dont know what cpu you have, if your kernel is 32 bit, then use 32bit | 17:03 |
| xq | gnychis: No, they should have no limit... | 17:03 |
| rhsanborn | amenado, Perhaps I will reboot and see if that file is getting changed at some point | 17:03 |
| micro-02 | QWEWE | 17:03 |
| jrib | !br | micro-02 | 17:03 |
| ubotu | micro-02: Por favor use #ubuntu-br ou #ubuntu-pt para ajuda em português. Obrigado. | 17:03 |
| bazhang | micro-02: portuguese? | 17:04 |
| amenado | rhsanborn-> why not copy first before rebooting? | 17:04 |
| storm-ze1 | Anyone know guarddog? I need help enabling http and apt access. :( | 17:04 |
| bazhang | storm-ze1: seems you would want firestarter for gnome ;] | 17:04 |
| amenado | rhsanborn-> that way its as easy as cp over to nonworking one | 17:04 |
| exerdigit | amenado-- i downloaded the 64bit of ubuntu since i have the core2 duo... so it should be 64 bit that i installed. | 17:04 |
| erUSUL | Newbuntu2: start loading them if not loaded already 'sudo modprobe gspca' | 17:04 |
| storm-ze1 | bazhang: Firestarter kept disappearing... And I was having trouble getting samba to work with it. | 17:05 |
| rhsanborn | amenado, eck, was hoping for an elegant, non-interactive solution :P | 17:05 |
| exerdigit | amenado-- aside from this, i was trying to follow some instructions using nswrapper or something, and i messed up my installer... i cant upgrade anything using the package manger thing | 17:05 |
| amenado | exerdigit-> you installed it, so you will know what you installed, try it, am not sure if the 64bit firefox is working fully yet though | 17:05 |
| erUSUL | Newbuntu2: then install cheese or something like that to test the webcam (i do not have a webcam so...) | 17:05 |
| thinkpaduser | can i carry my laptop around while suspended or should i hibernate? | 17:05 |
| Kanuha | nettow_, did you check under system, preferences, sound to see what device it is using? | 17:06 |
| jcg42 | When I try access a Samba share on another computer I get the error "The folder contents could not be displayed". | 17:06 |
| xq | thinkpaduser: I recommend suspend...but it's up to you. It depends on battery and personal preferences (also time to use again is a factor). | 17:06 |
| amenado | rhsanborn-> a few click should not be overly burdensome noh? :P | 17:06 |
| ethand_ | win: try "quota" in terminal | 17:06 |
| rhsanborn | thinkpaduser, moving it around while suspended should be just fine, it uses very little power and doesn't do any roaming or anything. I prefer to hibernate for security purposes (dump my memory) but that is a little banal. | 17:07 |
| thirdy | Hi, I just installed Ubuntu and on starting my computer, I get an error msg "NTLDR is missing", I was able to boot using the boot from HD from the Ubuntu CD | 17:07 |
| exerdigit | amenado-- i installed 32bit firefox on the side, and installed flash from there, and it all worked great! but once i restarted firefox, it doesnt work at all. | 17:07 |
| thinkpaduser | jcg42, you might can try 'read only = no' in the server's Share section or check the directory mask? | 17:07 |
| fco | where are the xscreensavers directory? | 17:07 |
| fco | in ubuntu | 17:07 |
| Newbuntu2 | erUSUL: it still just shows it as a new ehci_hcd device and doesn't start up any video dirver though... | 17:07 |
| amenado | thinkpaduser-> but be aware some of these suspend mode or hibernate does not fully get you back to a full operation when awakened, so many here complains about missing this or that | 17:07 |
| storm-ze1 | fco: I just had to find that, just a second. | 17:08 |
| amenado | exerdigit-> are you sure you are running the 32bit version? | 17:08 |
| thirdy | can I fix my problem installing grub? | 17:08 |
| hendrixski | ffm, it is quite magical... Now I'm gonna see about getting all the codecs and video stuff into firefox and see if it plays videos too :-p This is exciting :-) | 17:08 |
| erUSUL | Newbuntu2: do you get a /dev/video0 or something like that device?? | 17:08 |
| Kanuha | thirdy, yes I think so | 17:08 |
| rhsanborn | amenado, It's certainly easier than reentering my key and reseting my connection every time, but something along the lines of the Mac/Winblows, automatic solution would be even nicer. If that's the case, I'll just through a boot script in to handle it, but was hoping for an intelligent app that could sense where I was and connect to a predefined set of AP | 17:08 |
| amenado | thirdy problem with whom? | 17:08 |
| storm-ze1 | You are probably looking for this: /usr/lib/xscreensaver/ | 17:09 |
| Newbuntu2 | erUSUL: I already have /dev/video0 & 1 (I have a dual tuner PVR card). but I don't get a video2 or anything... | 17:09 |
| thirdy | amenado, i get the error msg "NTLDR is missing" on system start | 17:09 |
| rhsanborn | thinkpaduser, amenado, indeed, my laptop for example will not recover from hibernate atm. | 17:09 |
| ffm | hendrixski: you probably want to "sudo aptitude install flashplayer" (aptitude is a better form of apt-get, and "sudo" runs the command as the super user) | 17:09 |
| amenado | rhsanborn-> judicious use of interfaces options may suffice, man interfaces for options | 17:09 |
| exerdigit | amenado-- in my internet menu. i have FireFox Web Browser, and FireFox32 Web Browser... firefox32 worked with flash once i installed it through there, but now neither of them do anything with flash at all. | 17:09 |
| solexious | [Q] Bit confused, need to make apt-get upgrade work automated, so if there are any questions it automaticaly says yes | 17:09 |
| amenado | thirdy-> umm we are not windows support..try #windows | 17:10 |
| erUSUL | Newbuntu2: :| dunno then... i can not help you further; sorry | 17:10 |
| rhsanborn | Fortunately, they've done some fantastic work with making linux kernels boot faster, so standby/hibernate are not quite as necessary as in years past. | 17:10 |
| RiPPeR666 | is anyone knowledgeble with nvidia problems with x | 17:10 |
| rhsanborn | amenado, thanks for your help | 17:10 |
| thirdy | amenado, yeah but I'm using ubuntu | 17:10 |
| amenado | exerdigit-> i dont know what to tell you, other than launch it via command line, to make sure you are using the correct version | 17:11 |
| thinkpaduser | amenado, thanks for the advice. my Thinkpad has a BIOS password when resuming from suspend or hibernation. i use that for security | 17:11 |
| amenado | rhsanborn-> you're welcome, good luck | 17:11 |
| luica2 | hello | 17:11 |
| amenado | thirdy but the NTLDR error is not an ubuntu feature/error | 17:11 |
| Belboz99 | Hey all, this is what happens when I run glxgears: | 17:11 |
| Belboz99 | http://dansfah.hopto.org/3D_Issue.png | 17:11 |
| thinkpaduser | amenado, and i haven't had any issues with resuming. it seems exactly where i put it, save dropping the wireless network | 17:11 |
| rhsanborn | amenado, thirdy, depends on which version of ubuntu you installed, some are not quite as kind to vista partitions. Vista is even more nasty then older versions of windows with the bootloader. Installing the wrong version of ubunutu alongside vista will cause that error | 17:12 |
| amenado | thinkpaduser-> yeah, somehow it seems the hibernate, suspend is not ready yet..but work is in progress | 17:12 |
| iDivine | I have a folder, but it won't let me open it. It says, "Sorry, couldn't display all the contents of ___". What happened ;(. | 17:12 |
| Belboz99 | I have an ATI Radeon 3650, running Xorg version 1.3, do I need to somehow upgrade Xorg to version 1.4? | 17:12 |
| munk_ | can somebody help me with wine? or tell me the channel for wine help please? | 17:12 |
| Newbuntu2 | can someone help me with my webcam setup? | 17:12 |
| Kanuha | thirdy, it sounds like grub did not overwrite the windows loader, try installing grub again | 17:12 |
| Scunizi | How do I find out if slocate is scheduled to update the index files and when? | 17:12 |
| thirdy | kanuha, ok I'll install it with apt, is that ok? | 17:13 |
| amenado | rhsanborn-> i have not even toyed with vista yet, i let you all early adopters tell us the wonderful experiences :P | 17:13 |
| thinkpaduser | amenado, uswsusp was difficult to get working in Ubuntu Gutsy for me. i need to build a custom kernel with the SLAB allocator for it to resume the ATI card, IIRC | 17:13 |
| exerdigit | amenado-- i am getting an error regarding dpkg being interrupted, and its telling me to run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct it... so i did that, and i still get an error when trying to install ANYthing... | 17:13 |
| nettow_ | kanuha....yes I did,,,and I changed it to the correct sound.... | 17:13 |
| rhsanborn | amenado, my laptop came with vista and I'm running ubuntu if that tells you anything :P | 17:13 |
| Kanuha | thirdy, I think that should work | 17:13 |
| echo_mirage | how to remove my graphicsadapter from the compiz blacklist? or disable check? i don find the config file | 17:13 |
| iDivine | I have a folder, but it won't let me open it. It says, "Sorry, couldn't display all the contents of ___". What happened ;(. | 17:13 |
| amenado | rhsanborn-> you are of the few lucky ones..hehe | 17:14 |
| unknow1 | need help | 17:14 |
| storm-ze1 | !iptables | 17:14 |
| ubotu | Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE). | 17:14 |
| unknow1 | on wireless | 17:14 |
| rhsanborn | amenado, only prob with vista is that it's forcing manufacturers to come out with even more locked up hardware. This ubuntu install was a nightmare. | 17:14 |
| thirdy | rhsanborn, I have xp sp2, then I got malwares from a friends flash drive so I installed ubuntu 7.10 | 17:14 |
| nettow_ | kanuha...I changed the device under the volume....that seemed to fix it | 17:14 |
| unknow1 | i set up iwconfig eth1 mode ;; essid ;; rate ;; etc..... | 17:14 |
| amenado | rhsanborn i believe you, at first i heard of windows only pc...now i believe it | 17:15 |
| storm-ze1 | What command do I use to access iptables? /etc/init.d doesn't have an iptables command, and I can't access http right now to try to figure out how ubuntu does it. | 17:15 |
| thinkpaduser | rhsanborn, can i ask what laptop you use? | 17:15 |
| unknow1 | but on the other side ( client ) no networks appears | 17:15 |
| rhsanborn | thirdy, Kanuha was correct, it sounds like the bootloader wasn't written correctly | 17:15 |
| scraga2 | ok, turns out the php5-gmp module is hardy only, anything similar on gutsy, or will I need to compile it myself? | 17:15 |
| erUSUL | storm-ze1: you are trying to make a custom iptables script?? | 17:15 |
| rhsanborn | thinkpaduser, HP Thinkpad dv6500 | 17:15 |
| amenado | exerdigit-> im sorry to hear, btw i have no experience with dual cores/quad cores and 64bit so im not able to assist | 17:16 |
| rhsanborn | amenado, HP and MS got in bed together with Vista. Fortunately, OS community is catching up with drivers. | 17:16 |
| Kanuha | nettow_, yeah, I forgot you can change it there too | 17:16 |
| storm-ze1 | erUSUL: No-- just trying to open my http port. | 17:16 |
| unknow1 | can someone help me ? | 17:16 |
| exerdigit | amenado-- alright, thanks for trying | 17:16 |

| phiqtion | amenando: no it doesnt show up | 17:35 |
| spirit_ | thank | 17:35 |
| amenado | whileimhere-> you may transfer the initial torrent file? but it will start from beginning | 17:36 |

| unknow1 | amenado : ?? | 17:37 |
| amenado | unknow1-> is the windows in adhoc mode? | 17:37 |
| whileimhere | yeah so its best to let it finish and then just save it to DVD | 17:37 |
| phiqtion | amenando: no it doesnt show up | 17:37 |
| unknow1 | amenado: windows is a client does it to be configured as an ad-hoc or it connects to the ad-hoc one ? | 17:37 |

| subsume | Jack_Sparrow: that's a keeper, eh? | 17:38 |
| unknow1 | amenado : windows connect to ad-hoc on ubuntu ,.... but ubuntu appears to tx but it really doesnt | 17:38 |

| unknow1 | on opensuse it works ubuntu nothing | 17:39 |
| unknow1 | argbh | 17:39 |
| Jack_Sparrow | subsume, most of those excludes are not needed, that was my full backup command ... | 17:39 |
| phiqtion | amenado: with that i can delete? | 17:39 |
| amenado | unknow1-> use suse then? | 17:39 |
| unknow1 | amenado, : i like ubuntu | 17:39 |
| amenado | phiqtion-> after it is mounted, i assume so, try it | 17:39 |
| amenado | unknow1-> then get an AP | 17:39 |
| subsume | Jack_Sparrow: I wasn't getting that neat upgrade button in edubuntu 7.04 | 17:40 |
| phiqtion | thx | 17:40 |
| sinbox | whileimhere I think if you transfer both the torrent file and the data and make sure the pointer correspond it will resume, if not redownload the torrent file and make it point at where the data you've moved is | 17:40 |
| unknow1 | amenado, : thanks anyway for the hand | 17:40 |
| amenado | unknow1-> or a hub so they can communicate | 17:40 |
| whileimhere | Ill just leave it where it is for now. It only has 24 hours to go. | 17:41 |
| Jack_Sparrow | subsume, You can follow the manual steps.. apt-get update apt-get upgrade and apt-get distro-upgrade.. check that last command for spelling on disrto.. | 17:41 |

| nemesis256 | So I'm trying to boot up Ubuntu for the first time on a Mac Pro. I got to the initial menu, and selected the first option to install or boot Ubuntu. After that, I got to the loading screen with the orange bar. After a short while, the bar duplicated itself several times on the screen. After that probably about 5 screens followed with strange colors and patterns. The last one was white with some pink/red coloring. At this point th | 17:42 |

| rhsanborn | amenado, found out my problem. It has to do with wpa_supplicant. When the system is booting, and bringing up my network card, it tries to establish connectivity, and issues an ifup command, but at that point, it's unable to start wpa, and that is why I have to mess with the network manager, because I have to force it to reset the network, and restart the connection with wpa. | 17:43 |

| amenado | rhsanborn-> there are the options preup to get things loaded or executed first, it should not establish connectivity til those drivers are loaded and such | 17:44 |
| rhsanborn | amenado, a change to the if rules allows the system to try and reestablish connectivity automatically when wpa_supplicant finally gets loaded. | 17:44 |

| efren20 | wahts the best mp3 media player to download in ubuntu | 17:46 |
| rhsanborn | amenado, the problem was that after ifup is issued, it sets the flag to "up" for my wireless, even though it really isn't, and so when wpa_supplicant comes online, it tries to ifup again, but ignores my wireless because it's already marked as "up". | 17:46 |
| asc | but can you use it to design cyborg dolphins with lasers to take over the world? | 17:46 |
| amenado | rhsanborn-> cool you got it figured out..so you have to modify if-pre-up.d scripts? | 17:46 |

| Scunizi | iratik, gnome commander | 17:49 |
| iratik | efren20: to find software for your installation, go to the menu and click Add/Remove | 17:49 |
| asc | iratik: thunar like he said. pcmanfm is incredibly fast, also. | 17:49 |
| candyban_ | I've read a lot on Alsa ... and I understand some of the more advanced features like sound routing and stuff, but nowhere anything about getting the damn stuff to work | 17:49 |
| [chr0n0s] | vignesh, repos are huge i think | 17:49 |
| rhsanborn | amenado, not familiar with that specifically. I haven't gotten into boot orders and such much. | 17:49 |
| amenado | subsume-> what do you mean update /etc/passwd? | 17:50 |
| asc | iratik: of course, real men use bash | 17:50 |
| subsume | There is some mechanism appending the /etc/passwd file in the client machines in my computer lab to reflect new users added to the server. HOW TO find out what mechanism that might be? | 17:50 |
| vignesh | yeah.. but still i have a fast interenet connection @ home, my frenz dont have it... so i need to download them.. | 17:50 |
| hemelskonijn | w00t ... ubuntu runs nice :D ... no need to mod a lot before it runs on my laptop :D | 17:50 |
| [chr0n0s] | asc, bash is default, real men use zsh | 17:50 |

| asc | iratik: Install mplayer - you can run it from the command like | 17:50 |
| Scunizi | vignesh, there is a program in synaptic that will allow you to create a repository on a cd, but I've forgotten the name. You'll have problems downloading all the things in the repos. it's thousands of packages. | 17:50 |
| asc | chr0n0s: Real men use punch cards | 17:51 |
| loser2012 | is this version any better? http://ultimateedition.info/ | 17:51 |

| candyban_ | anyone familiar with getting ALSA to work? | 17:51 |
| Scunizi | vignesh, sure you can.. but you want ALL of the packages? | 17:51 |
| [chr0n0s] | vignesh, use apt-on-cd | 17:51 |
| [chr0n0s] | or aptoncd | 17:51 |

| vignesh | [chr0n0s], thanks | 17:52 |
| candyban_ | K_Nine, huh???? | 17:52 |
| amenado | subsume-> you want the users (acessing the client host) to access the server ? central authentication? | 17:52 |

| pliumbum | anybody can help? | 17:52 |

| Gmo | I did, that's where I found the chipset | 17:53 |
| adaptr | Gmo: the one that it blabbers about is the one that it loaded | 17:53 |
| amenado | subsume-> the clients were added to the server side and not on the host clients? but somehow clients can directly log onto client host? | 17:53 |
| iratik | actually... a guide like this for bash would be great.! | 17:54 |
| adaptr | Gmo: it does not tell you what chipset you have without also loading the driver | 17:54 |

| vignesh | Scunizi, nope.. im not askin abt downloadin and installin them in mine.. im asking about downloading and givin it to my frenz thru lan.. coz my frenz dont have direct internet access.. | 17:54 |
| pliumbum | i have a problem with grub - when i try to load windows, i get error 13 invalid or unsupported executable format | 17:54 |
| pliumbum | what should i do? | 17:54 |
| amenado | thirdy-> what do you get now when you boot? do you get the grub menu? | 17:54 |
| flats | I am running feisty and I am quite a noob. Anyway after I choose my linux option from my bootloader, I get a really screwed up screen which almost looks like the monitor loses sync. Then after a min, I assume X or GDM loads and everything is fine. I went into my grub and made sure my vga=normal and thats OK. I believe it's the login screen that gets scrambled and since I auto login, It's OK after it logs in. Any idea how I fix that? | 17:54 |
| Gmo | but it did say the chipset before I added the radeonhd driver | 17:54 |
| chazco | Anyone here using Textmaker on Gusty able to explain how to get the msttcorefonts to work correctly? They show up but they're too small, it seems the padding/spacing is missing | 17:54 |
| adaptr | Gmo: it mentions the exact driver name - I am willing to bet that you don't know what that is actually called | 17:54 |
| iratik | i mean... a guide like this "http://zsh.dotsrc.org/Intro/intro_toc.html" but for bash, so i can see what bash is really capable of | 17:54 |
| efren20 | anyone know a good mp3 m3edia player to download to ubuntu gnome? | 17:54 |
| Scunizi | vignesh, I understand.. apt will still download without installing them on your machine. You'll then be able to copy the .deb files to the external hd | 17:54 |
| thirdy | amenado, still the same | 17:54 |
| Gmo | adaptr, that is likely. the package is radeonhd, but what driver does that load? | 17:54 |
| amenado | thirdy-> how did you install grub what commands? | 17:55 |
| subsume | amenado: computer lab. 30 computers. want people to be able to login to whichever. i suspect the server is updating client machines with new users | 17:55 |
| subsume | i don't know how | 17:55 |
| Gmo | /usr/share/xserver-xorg/pci/radeonhd.ids | 17:55 |
| thirdy | amenado, root(hd0,2) then setup(hd0) | 17:55 |
| vignesh | Scunizi, oh is that so?? can u plz explain step by step.. coz am a very much newbie.. | 17:55 |
| gravemind | efren20- what kind of music player are you looking for? there are lots | 17:55 |
| K_Nine | efren20: Try Rhythmbox. | 17:55 |
| thirdy | amenado, is GfxBoot ok? | 17:55 |
| adaptr | Gmo: this is where you read the Xorg log :) | 17:55 |
| asc | flats: you could try removing the "splash" option from the line. You'll get text instead of the shiny loading bar, but it's helped for me with similar problems. | 17:55 |
| Gmo | so I am no further ahead because a grep for radeon does not disclose that string either | 17:55 |
| efren20 | rythmbox dosent sopport mp3 | 17:55 |
| amenado | thirdy-> i dont konw about GfxBoot..never used it | 17:55 |
| gravemind | efren20: it does, you have to have the right plugins installed | 17:56 |
| asc | *from the line in /boot/grub/*lst | 17:56 |
| amenado | subsume-> maybe you have NIS running? | 17:56 |
| K_Nine | efren20: Have you added the mp3 codecs? | 17:56 |
| efren20 | i need one that ould play downloaded songs from a special website and there mp3 files | 17:56 |
| Scunizi | vignesh, I'm not great with apt at the command line.. open a terminal and type man apt.. there's more info there. you can also try info apt | 17:56 |
| efren20 | nop | 17:56 |
| mnereson | anyone know where php.ini is? | 17:56 |
| vignesh | [chr0n0s], hey.. apt-cd-on doesnt work.. | 17:56 |
| subsume | amenado: how would I tell? | 17:56 |
| amenado | thirdy-> how did you get to issue those commands? from a liveCD ? | 17:56 |
| vignesh | Scunizi, thanks a lot :) | 17:56 |
| * Gmo is going to diff the xorg logs with and without that driver installed ... | 17:56 | |
| Scunizi | vignesh, np.. | 17:56 |
| gravemind | K_Nine: if you click on an mp3, doesn't ubuntu offer to download the codecs for you now? | 17:57 |
| K_Nine | efren20: Go to this site https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats | 17:57 |
| rhsanborn | amenado, I think thirdy used the liveCD to boot the install on his HD | 17:57 |
| amenado | subsume-> what do you have in /etc/nsswitch.conf ? can you paste in pastebin? | 17:57 |
| flats | asc: which line would that be? I'd like to try that | 17:57 |

| SHyTRiGGeR | hi all, please which paquage should i use to install an irc server ? | 17:58 |
| asc | flats: the 'kernel'. Should end with 'ro quiet splash' by default; just delete 'splash' | 17:58 |
| candyban_ | K_Nine, I couldn't find anything indicating Ubuntu has remove alsa ... which would seem strange to me as it's the default sound architecture in 2.6 kernels | 17:58 |
| amenado | thirdy are you still in the liveCd? look at your device.map same partition where you have ubuntu installed, but directory /boot/grub/ | 17:58 |
| efren20 | so what do i have to download | 17:58 |
| efren20 | would just download itunes do it? | 17:58 |
| Montego | How do I find out what alsa version I have? | 17:58 |
| flats | asc: Unfortunately, i wouldn't even know what that file was or how to get to it? | 17:58 |
| gravemind | efren20: go to terminal and paste this sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras | 17:58 |
| amenado | subsume-> yes, and server too if possible, just one client, assuming they have all same configs | 17:58 |
| thirdy | rhsanborn, amenado, right now I did sudo apt-get remove grub, then install it again | 17:59 |

| efren20 | gravemind:can you show me how to download itunes | 18:01 |
| Scunizi | vignesh, I think it's gcalctool http://calctool.sourceforge.net/ | 18:01 |

| thirdy | rhsanborn, yeah | 18:02 |
| nemesis256 | So I'm trying to boot up Ubuntu for the first time on a Mac Pro. I got to the initial menu, and selected the first option to install or boot Ubuntu. After that, I got to the loading screen with the orange bar. After a short while, the bar duplicated itself several times on the screen. After that probably about 5 screens followed with strange colors and patterns. The last one was white with some pink/red coloring. At this point th | 18:02 |
| nemesis256 | e CD stopped spinning, so I just held down the power button to turn off. | 18:02 |
| gravemind | patrick__: the only thing I can think of is try to fix any broken packages in synaptic | 18:02 |
| asc | *cinelerra | 18:02 |
| nemesis256 | What could be the problem? The graphics card in my Mac Pro is a NVIDIA GeForce 7300 GT. I am using the 32 bit version of Ubuntu. Would the 64 bit make any difference? | 18:02 |
| camserver_ | does ubuntu automatically recognize and reconfigure new pci cards/ | 18:02 |
| Montego | How do I find out what alsa driver version I have? | 18:02 |

| subsume | amenado: keep in mind i unknowingly set up ldap on the server and some clients | 18:03 |
| amenado | thirdy now you look at /boot/grub/device.map whats the contents? make sure it matches what you did for root and setup | 18:03 |
| gravemind | patrick__: it's in one of the menus, but I don't know if it will work | 18:03 |

| K_Nine | ef | 18:06 |
| camserver_ | does ubuntu automatically update the kernel for new pci cards? | 18:06 |
| K_Nine | efren20: I think Banshee is Gnome and Amarok is KDE. | 18:06 |
| amenado | <thirdy> amenado, root(hd0,2) then setup(hd0) match this with device.map | 18:07 |
| gravemind | efren20: but you can use either, it's your choice | 18:07 |

| efren20 | k_nine: do i install both that came out one is banshee and other banshee daap | 18:09 |
| Starnestommy | ciruU: I'm pretty sure it does manage dependencies, but I think that #gentoo might be a better place to ask | 18:09 |
| bluefoxx | K_Nine: im just trying to burn the xubuntu iso, and i keep getting a disk error telling me to use a lower speed. i dont want to have to install anymore programs, much less more kde programs[i odnt use them ofton enough] | 18:10 |

| yeltsinator | Hi, I've got an HP P1505 and when I use the fooxqx driver to manually create and xqx file and then cp it to /dev/usb/lp0 the printer works, but in cups it doesn't. I have the uri set to usb://dev/usb/lp0 and I can't think of anything else that could be wrong.. | 18:27 |
| runemaste644 | Is there even a command for vino server? | 18:28 |
| gravemind | narothepharoh: that sounds like a problem with your dvd player then -- because if you choose the "dvd" setting, it pretty much ensures it will work | 18:28 |
| asc | runemaster: have you tried using the manual? | 18:28 |
| rkm_ | man this is frustrating...three installs later | 18:28 |
| runemaste644 | for what | 18:28 |
| gravemind | narothepharoh: does the dvd play like a normal dvd when you put it in another computer? | 18:28 |
| ut2004player | have a canon i350 printer and microsoft wireless multemedia keyboard 1.1? | 18:28 |
| asc | runemaster: vino_server, apparently | 18:28 |

| RiPPeR666 | ok. i have been trying alot of different options in trying to get ubuntu to work and im just about to give up. First of all when i used the live CD install "7.10" after the boot splash screen my monitor just went blank and nothing was happening. so i read some things and was informed that using the Alt cd with text mode install would work. and it did i now have ubuntu 7.10 installed on my computer, but with the same problems. after | 19:12 |
| RiPPeR666 | the boot splash screen my monitor just goes black again. so i read some more one these forms and in the irc chat. i installed new drivers via "sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-new" then eidited my xorg.conf files and changed driver used from "nv" to "nvidia" after i did all this the problem actually got worse. now instead of the screen going blank after the boot splash screen my monitor losses its signal to my comp. how lovely!!! s | 19:12 |
| RiPPeR666 | o now i cant get into terminal with out loading in recovery mode. so i though to myself hey well that made things worse so. i went back to xorg.conf and changed "nvidia" back to "nv". when i did that it still has the same problem as before that my monitor just goes black. but i can still access terminal via "ctrl+alt+F1" and login and everything just cant run x still. below is my xorg.cong file. | 19:12 |

| Flannel | Fabio_Como: xdm is in universe, so make sure you have universe enabled | 19:13 |
| david | I rather just install 7.04 and then update myself to 7.10 and get a usable system | 19:13 |
| zoe | erawfish_, lol, I just hoped this chan would know something | 19:13 |
| revprez | is there anyway I can reinstall the kernel from the LiveCD? | 19:13 |
| erawfish_ | revprez: boot the livecd, chroot to your hdd and apt-get install them again | 19:13 |
| zoe | erawfish_, being the startling repository of knowledge that it is :) | 19:14 |

| revprez | erawfish: thanks, appreciate it | 19:14 |
| Flare183 | oh no | 19:14 |
| revprez | Flannel: removed them all | 19:14 |

| erawfish_ | Fabio_Como: it is in universe. use another mirror or something. or use packages.ubuntu.com | 19:15 |
| Flannel | Fabio_Como: pastebin the output of this: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install xdm | 19:15 |
| erawfish_ | zoe: plonk. have a nice day | 19:15 |
| Fabio_Como | it says that the package is no more available or that's nominated in another packaged. | 19:15 |
| RiPPeR666 | joh6nn: nope i got the alt cd live cd didint work had same problem after boot splash screen go black so i instal text based | 19:16 |
| erawfish_ | Fabio_Como: apt-cach policy xdm too | 19:16 |
| joh6nn | RiPPeR666: yep, but the liveCD would be a pretty quick way for us to check my hunch | 19:16 |
| erawfish_ | RiPPeR666: what boot options | 19:16 |

| munk_ | HELP! i installed wine on my ubuntu box and after i uninstalled a few programs they were still in the menu so i deleted them from the menu but now when i installed them back into wine they dont appear in the menu....help pleasE? its not a wine problem its something with the menu but im not sure what and how to fix it... | 19:18 |
| differentreality | Flannel, well users for example have specific privileges right ? to use this device but not use that folder etc... dont groups have privileges as well ? | 19:18 |
| RiPPeR666 | im think sli has alot 2 do with it | 19:18 |
| holicowww | Flannel, with windowsxp encrypted... and ubuntu installed onto usb hdd | 19:18 |
| === Gokee2_ is now known as Gokee2 | ||

| joh6nn | RiPPeR666: i'm guessing you need to pass a special boot option to the kernel, in order to get video with the nvidia card | 19:19 |
| erawfish_ | munk_: the reason you have to use dpkg --force-confmiss is because whenever your config files (<conffiles>) are gone, dpkg assumes you deleted them on purpose, and that you want them to stay deleted. You can also reinstall them using the following apt-get line: apt-get -o DPkg::Options::="--force-confmiss" --reinstall install <packagename>; or using aptitude, aptitude -o | 19:19 |
| erawfish_ | DPkg::Opions::="--force-confmiss" reinstall <packagename>; | 19:19 |
| holicowww | Flannel, how do i completely isolate ubuntu from accessing the internal hdd during work? | 19:19 |
| erawfish_ | munk_: those menuentries are conf files too | 19:19 |
| erawfish_ | holicowww: don't mount it automatically | 19:19 |

| Flannel | differentreality: so you're looking to see the groups ability to access a particular folder? Yes, groups have privledges as well. | 19:20 |
| Flare183 | bbl people | 19:20 |
| holicowww | thanks | 19:20 |
| RiPPeR666 | joh6nn: how would i go aboout fixing this boot problem??? | 19:20 |
| RionM | Starnestommy: now the error message is 'Message did not receive a reply (timeout by message bus)' | 19:20 |
| david | seems the whole underlying graphicsdriver is wrong on this installation (apart from x obviously) | 19:20 |
| phuzion | What should I use to get .7z files decompressed? | 19:21 |
| joh6nn | RiPPeR666: well, we can test it with the liveCD. when the liveCD gets to first menu, if you hit i think F6, it will let you change the kernel options | 19:21 |
| munk_ | erawfish_, ok thanks il try it.. | 19:21 |
| joh6nn | i'm just trying to figure out what option you'll need to pass it | 19:21 |
| differentreality | Flannel, actually i'm looking to see all the privileges that a specific group has... For no specific reason... | 19:21 |
| ConstyXIV | anyone have a link to the hardy heron wallpaper? | 19:21 |
| david | phuzion: try fileroller? | 19:21 |
| david | also try google | 19:22 |
| bluefoxx | woot^^the cd worked...at least for the virtual machine anyways... | 19:22 |
| david | (or even search for 7z in synapic or whatnot) | 19:22 |
| munk_ | erawfish_, where u put package name do i put wine or? the package for the menu? (btw do you know which one it is?) | 19:22 |
| Copter | Im trying to install ubuntu (AM2 motherboard) and im getting: Kernel Panic: not syncing: IO-APIC+timer doesnt work....Should I give up ? :P | 19:23 |
| RiPPeR666 | joh6nn: ok i have tried this before it give you the boot paramiters most people say take out quick splash and a vga-768 i think right | 19:23 |
| joh6nn | right | 19:23 |
| datarimlens | having some issues with symlinks is this the appropriate channel or can you help me with a better one? Error: Operation not supported | 19:23 |
| joh6nn | but i don't think the vga=768 will work for you | 19:23 |
| joh6nn | i think you need a different one | 19:23 |
| joh6nn | i'm just trying to figure out which one you need | 19:23 |
| danand | phuzion - apt-cache pkgnames | grep p7z shows a list of packages that look promising. use apt-cache show pkgname to get more info about packages | 19:23 |
| nickrud | joh6nn: try without any vga | 19:23 |
| RiPPeR666 | yea | 19:24 |
| joh6nn | nickrud: heh. that's an idea. can't make it any worse, huh? | 19:24 |
| david | seems it's a very common error :B | 19:24 |
| erawfish_ | munk_: wine then | 19:24 |
| joh6nn | RiPPeR666: what nickrud said | 19:24 |
| david | (no usplash) | 19:24 |
| erawfish_ | munk_: next time you uninstal: purge | 19:24 |
| nickrud | johnC: I use only quiet on that line myself | 19:24 |
| jekyll | Copter: try to disable in apic the bios, i had the same problem | 19:24 |
| RiPPeR666 | ok ill try that but the usplash doesnt seem to be the problem | 19:25 |
| munk_ | erawfish_, alright im assuming that deletes the conf files too...right? | 19:25 |
| danand | RiPPeR666 - sorry to intrude, but what problem are you having exactly? | 19:25 |
| beautifulsnow | ~~~~ Question: is it okay to reinstall ubuntu over itself without formatting, if I have just done a fresh install? | 19:25 |
| * nickrud has a love/hate relationship with tab completion | 19:25 | |
| erawfish_ | RiPPeR666: the only thing you need to use is root=/dev.... all else: remoev it | 19:25 |
| Flannel | differentreality: As far as I know that's just handled by normal permissions. The audio group is the group for the audio devices, etc. | 19:25 |
| s0u][ight | hello does anyone know a good program that makes usage of a webcam? | 19:25 |
| Flannel | s0u][ight: To test? Ekiga | 19:25 |
| xq | beautifulsnow: It will format most likely upon reinstallation unless you tell it not to...you will loose information. Unless you upgrade and it recognizes the installation of Ubuntu. | 19:25 |
| joh6nn | RiPPeR666: getting rid of usplash is more so you can see what's going on | 19:25 |
| RiPPeR666 | ok will that get me to load x still | 19:25 |
| s0u][ight | Flannel, whit a capital letter? | 19:26 |
| datarimlens | do symlinks have restrictions in 7.10? I get an error when trying to untar some symlinks or trying to symlink with a .so name? | 19:26 |
| munk_ | erawfish_, im sorry to bug u again but i did that and it reinstalled a package "wine" but the entries in the menu are still missing...any ideeas? | 19:26 |
| eifzon | How do I install like irssi to my chroot? the fastest way | 19:26 |
| RiPPeR666 | couldnt i just hit ctrl+alt+F1??? | 19:26 |
| erawfish_ | munk_: which links are missing? | 19:26 |
| differentreality | Flannel, supposing i want to create a new group and give to the group any privilege i want ? how would I do that ? | 19:26 |
| erawfish_ | RiPPeR666: yes | 19:27 |
| Flannel | s0u][ight: I don't actually know what the binary is. It's in your menus though, Internet > Ekiga (or maybe Cmmunications?) | 19:27 |
| david | hmm.. can't I uninstall usplash without uninstalling ubuntu-desktop? | 19:27 |
| Flannel | differentreality: What do you mean any privledge you want? | 19:27 |
| erawfish_ | RiPPeR666: is the hardware a notebook? | 19:27 |
| Flannel | david: no. But ubuntu-desktop is just a metapackage | 19:27 |
| s0u][ight | Flannel, fount it | 19:27 |
| RiPPeR666 | no PC | 19:27 |
| PP|Spydon | datarimlens, there shouldnt be any restictions on that... | 19:27 |
| erawfish_ | differentreality: you cannot | 19:27 |
| beautifulsnow | xq: I know, I plan to tell it not to format. What Im asking is if its okay to tell it to install unformated | 19:27 |
| Erickj92 | when i go to install kubuntu, it tells me it is scanning the disks, but it is stuck at 46% any ideas? | 19:27 |
| david | Flannel: so it doesn't matter? | 19:27 |
| danand | differentreality - look at the addgroup command - man addgroup | 19:27 |
| munk_ | erawfish_, well i installed guitar pro and photoshop cs2 and they are not there but normally it puts there any other program... | 19:27 |
| joh6nn | RiPPeR666: yes to both, but the ctrl+alt+f1 is less reliable | 19:28 |
| Flannel | david: right. Although, it'll be reinstalled when you upgrade versions, so you'll need to remove usplash again after upgrading to Hardy | 19:28 |
| david | Flannel: plus it gets readded again when I reboot and readd? usplash? | 19:28 |
| munk_ | erawfish_, that i install of course....but because i deleted them manually previously they never appear again.. | 19:28 |
| erawfish_ | munk_: that's a wine function. recreate the links then. man menu | 19:28 |
| datarimlens | Cannot create symlink to `libML.so.3.18.32': Operation not supported | 19:28 |
| david | Flannel: ok | 19:28 |
| differentreality | Flannel, to be able to excecute one command but not the other, to be able to access one folder but not the other... etc etc etc | 19:28 |
| erawfish_ | datarimlens: do you run tar under sudo? | 19:28 |
| xq | beautifulsnow: It may create problems unless it is an upgrade. If you want a fresh install, I recommend formatting the Linux/Ubuntu partition. | 19:28 |
| sladen | david: remove 'splash' from the kernel command line | 19:28 |
| datarimlens | it is under sudo | 19:28 |
| erawfish_ | datarimlens: and what is the filesystem you untar to? | 19:28 |
| datarimlens | good question :) | 19:29 |
| === [gquit]bombadil is now known as bombadil[gquit] | ||
| datarimlens | hgfs | 19:29 |
| david | sladen: I don't want to disable it, but reinstall it | 19:29 |
| erawfish_ | datarimlens: "mount" | 19:29 |
| erawfish_ | datarimlens: that has no symlinks | 19:29 |
| Flannel | differentreality: You should read up on unix permissions. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions | 19:29 |
| datarimlens | itś mounted allright | 19:29 |
| david | or rather - remove | 19:29 |
| beautifulsnow | xq: thing is im only doing it to get the mouse to work (its random, when I intall ubuntu sometimes the mouse works, sometimes it doesn't) | 19:29 |
| RiPPeR666 | erawfish_: even if i hit ctrl+alt+F1 when it trys to load x after the splash screen still goes blank; i can still log into terminal though as soon i i hit f1 it asks me to login and i can access everything in terminal | 19:29 |
| munk_ | erawfish_, but if i do that then when i take wine off they are still there and they are linked to nothing...i mean it doesnt do it by itself...:( | 19:29 |
| joh6nn | beautifulsnow: laptop? | 19:30 |
| erawfish_ | RiPPeR666: what videocard and what driver do you use for it? | 19:30 |
| Havvy | Can somebody help me with making a live bootable version of linux for a SanDisk Cruzer Micro USB on Windows? | 19:30 |
| sladen | david: sudo apt-get --reinstall install usplash but I'm not sure what help that will be | 19:30 |
| erawfish_ | munk_: wine does. and no reinstalling wine won't bring them back | 19:30 |
| prasanna | hey guys, i'm getting this error when i boot: "There was an error starting The GNOME Settings Daemon" | 19:30 |
| lupo | does anybody from Canada? | 19:30 |
| prasanna | this happened after a recent update | 19:30 |
| david | sladen: I suppose it's some weirdness with vga/vesa module I have | 19:30 |
| erawfish_ | lupo: do you have an ubuntu question? | 19:30 |
| sladen | Havvy: you need to rawrite an image onto the USB stick. "dragging" a file on does not place the magic boot options at the front | 19:30 |
| prasanna | everything looks really off now | 19:30 |
| PP|Spydon | prasanna, have you tried a reboot? | 19:30 |

| bod_ | !root | efren20 | 19:44 |
| ubotu | efren20: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 19:44 |

| Lunar_Lamp | Flannel, it doesn't show up :-/ | 19:48 |
| efren20 | what do you mena? | 19:48 |
| K_Nine | Ubuntu should have installed a lot of the things you are asking about much easier. | 19:48 |
| Flannel | Lunar_Lamp: Er... if its installed, it should show up. Maybe we typed somethingw rong: dpkg -l | grep libapache2 | 19:48 |
| Lunar_Lamp | ii libapache2-mod 1.999.21-1 Integration of perl with the Apache2 web ser <== I get that if I just grep "apache" | 19:49 |

| stephans | bod_: I only have single whitespaces... that is the right way is it not? | 19:49 |
| Flannel | Lunar_Lamp: that's a lower case L | 19:49 |
| Lunar_Lamp | Flannel, yeah, I know, I think it's because it doesn't show the full package name (frustratingly) | 19:49 |
| Lunar_Lamp | But it is shown as "ii". | 19:49 |

| Flannel | Lunar_Lamp: alright, the ii at the beginning menas its desired to be installed (first) and it it is installed (second), there's a key at the top of the dpkg -l line. But, I don't knwo what B means in aptitude | 19:49 |

| Flannel | Lunar_Lamp: apache2.2-common in feisty, apache2-common in others | 19:52 |

| david_ | does anyone know how to increase the refresh rate above 50hz in ubuntu | 19:52 |

| Some_Person | jk__: i dont know what you were told to do, but lets find out for sure. | 20:08 |
| live | hola | 20:08 |
| bluefoxx | arrg. my fish have ich again...time to pull out the medicine again...[wearever i put it] | 20:08 |
| mjw- | bluefoxx: you might try safe or even VGA mode, you'll probably have to manually change the xorg.conf file to use the "s3" driver | 20:08 |
| Some_Person | jk__: install gparted | 20:08 |
| jk__ | how do i install that? | 20:08 |
| Some_Person | jk__: sudo apt-get install gparted | 20:08 |
| bluefoxx | mjw-: it freezes bootup at "configuring X". i booted w/o the "quiet" option. | 20:09 |
| rambo3 | jk__, start terminal and type: sudo fdisk -l | 20:09 |
| jk__ | i did | 20:09 |
| danand | jk__ - if you want to see all the partitions you have on your machine type sudo fdisk -l in a terminal | 20:09 |
| Some_Person | jk__: what did fdisk say? | 20:09 |
| danand | rambo3 - :) bit late | 20:10 |
| Some_Person | jk__: post on http://paste.ubuntu.nl | 20:10 |
| mjw- | bluefoxx have you tried booting in vga mode? | 20:10 |
| jk__ | some_person what do i do then it saying :-$ | 20:10 |

| lwizardl | hi | 20:10 |
| lwizardl | how can i display how much ram a laptop has instead while inside gnome? | 20:10 |
| mjw- | bluefoxx i'm almost certain the Trio64 cards were not VESA 2.0 compatible, so the default vesa driver will probably hang the startup | 20:11 |
| danand | lwizardl - type free in a terminal | 20:11 |
| jk__ | http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/57988/ | 20:11 |
| rambo3 | lwizardl, like screenlets gdesklets or in terminal ? | 20:11 |

| Some_Person | jk__: you will need to reinstall windows | 20:12 |
| jk__ | ut they never gave me a cd | 20:12 |
| jk__ | when i needed to reinstall windows | 20:12 |
| jk__ | i did f12 which did system restore | 20:12 |
| Some_Person | jk__: not even a "Restore CD"? | 20:12 |
| row | I seem to have acpi-modules-2.6.22-14-generic-di_2.6.22-14.46_i386.udeb and such but not 52... | 20:12 |
| jk__ | nope | 20:12 |
| Some_Person | jk__: what is your manufacturer? | 20:12 |
| jk__ | i mena it was f10 | 20:12 |
| jk__ | hp | 20:13 |
| LoLLo | http://it.youtube.com/watch?v=-Gs8sYe4uqM | 20:13 |
| danand | jk__ - did your system reinstall from an image on the hard disk | 20:13 |
| jk__ | i dont know | 20:13 |
| Some_Person | danand: his entire windows (including any restore stuff) is gone | 20:13 |
| rambo3 | jk__, you lost windows. either get somone elses XP CD and use your cd key . or call HP for a CD . | 20:13 |
| Blinkiz | I have a logitech quickcam pro 5000 that I would like to get working in ubuntu. Do I need any special program for this? video4linux I have read on the net. Is it included in windows? Does it exist software for logitech quickcam? Please advice | 20:14 |
| bluefoxx | mjw-: still freezes in safe graphics mode - .- | 20:14 |
| sdfowf | i got a crazy network idea me and a friend are trying to do, anyone willing to take the scenario and guess if it'll work? | 20:14 |
| bluefoxx | Blinkiz: it should work | 20:14 |
| danand | Some_Person - yeah. That is why i _really_ don't like restore utilities being on the hard disk | 20:14 |
| mjw- | bluefoxx I think there's an F-key you can press to go so far as to enable VGA-only mode | 20:14 |
| Some_Person | jk__: are you sure your PC did not come with a restore disc? | 20:14 |
| mjw- | bluefoxx look at the bottom of the live cd boot screen | 20:15 |
| bluefoxx | mjw-: kk, will check for that | 20:15 |
| Some_Person | danand: yeah, i had that problem. i convinced emachines to send me one though | 20:15 |
| jk__ | yes ill just go and double check or sumtin | 20:15 |
| Erickj92 | what is the root password on LiveCD? | 20:15 |
| mjw- | bluefoxx if that doesn't work, you might have success installing from the alternate cd | 20:15 |
| Blinkiz | bluefoxx: So, how do I work whit this program? You mean I can configure for example videolan (vlc) and get picture? | 20:15 |
| rambo3 | Erickj92, enter | 20:15 |
| bluefoxx | Blinkiz: you should have spc*** or something like that | 20:15 |
| bluefoxx | !webcam | Blinkiz | 20:15 |
| ubotu | Blinkiz: Instructions for using webcams with Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Webcam - Supported cams: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsMultimediaWebCameras | 20:15 |
| danand | jk__ - you will need to contact the people who sold you the machine and explain why you need a windows restore disk :( | 20:15 |
| Blinkiz | aaa, nice link. I check them out | 20:15 |
| Some_Person | jk__: I'm sorry to say that I can't really help you. You should call HP | 20:15 |
| Erickj92 | the "enter" root password did not work | 20:16 |
| jk__ | okay thanks though | 20:16 |
| rambo3 | Erickj92, sudo -i | 20:16 |
| Erickj92 | thanks | 20:16 |
| beautifulsnow | :/ Any of you have problems with the media buttons on your mouse not working after a fresh ubuntustudio install? It seems its random, maybe one install it works, maybe it doesnt :/ | 20:16 |
| sdfowf | computer1 is an openbsd router/firewall, it has 2 nics. computer2 is a linux distro with a 10/100 nic and a wifi card, and across the street is my friends linksys accesspoint. me and him would like to connect my entire network ( which is behind my openbsd router, basically connect my router) to his accessoint across the street, by bridging it thru the linux box. crazy, but, is it possible? | 20:16 |
| idefix | is the CUPS server something that started since Dapper Drake? | 20:17 |
| bluefoxx | Blinkiz: most webcams have worked out of the box for me[but thats only two XD] i used a logitech quiccam chat and a labtec cam i found at a thrift store[but it has logitech chipset]. try lsusb with the webcam pluged in, you should be able to find it. | 20:17 |
| Erickj92 | how do i dual boot gentoo and ubuntu with gentoo already installed? | 20:18 |
| danand | idefix - no. CUPS has been around for a long time | 20:18 |
| sdfowf | i guess my idea is too crazy? | 20:18 |
| bluefoxx | Blinkiz: it should look something like "Bus 003 Device 003: ID 046d:0921 Logitech, Inc. Labtec WebCam" | 20:18 |
| Some_Person | jk__: you can contact HP online here: http://welcome.hp.com/country/us/en/contact/chat_1.html | 20:18 |
| hdevalence | Erickj92: use sudo | 20:18 |
| danand | sdfowf - yes :D | 20:19 |
| idefix | danand - I cannot contact CUPS since I upgraded to Dapper | 20:19 |
| Blinkiz | bluefoxx: Yeah, seams like my webcam drivers is already included. So what program do you recommend to view with? | 20:19 |
| rambo3 | Erickj92, learn grub | 20:19 |
| danand | idefix - have you checked its running? | 20:19 |
| Erickj92 | rembo3, i mean install it. i cant shrink my primary partition | 20:19 |
| Erickj92 | to allow room for ubuntu | 20:19 |
| Erickj92 | rambo** | 20:19 |
| goodhabit | Hello. How I can setup router with ubuntu server? | 20:19 |
| Some_Person | Erickj92: is it ntfs? | 20:19 |
| sdfowf | danand, why couldn't it be done? crossover the linux card to the router, and then on the linux kernel just bridge the interfaces together, then associate the linux box with the accesspoint? | 20:19 |
| Erickj92 | ex3 | 20:19 |
| Some_Person | Erickj92: is it full? | 20:20 |
| rambo3 | Erickj92, how many primaries do you havE? | 20:20 |
| w0lt-_ | anyone had any positive experience installing ubuntu on a core duo mac? | 20:20 |
| Erickj92 | it is one 160 GB hard drive | 20:20 |
| Erickj92 | and the only hard drive | 20:20 |
| sdfowf | danand, i mention this because i've done it with an openbsd box, but, not with linux, linux seems to always instist and needed an IP address, never had that problem with the openbsd software. | 20:20 |
| idefix | danand - it's not running in the first page of top | 20:20 |
| RiPPeR666 | can someone check out this xorg.0.log file and see if you can figure out y X wont load for me | 20:20 |
| bluefoxx | Blinkiz: i sugest to try cheese, camorama but my fav is camstreams | 20:21 |
| idefix | why does ps only have three processes and top loads? | 20:21 |
| mangojambo | please ... how to rename the partitions label in Nautilus computer:/// when the user are not alow and nautilus root don't see the partitions like the user?? | 20:21 |

| danand | idefix - check if cups is running with the command /etc/init.d/cupsys status | 20:21 |
| Armi1 | What ATI driver is the best on Ubuntu? | 20:22 |
| Some_Person | Erickj92: what partition software are you using? | 20:22 |
| Erickj92 | qtparted | 20:22 |
| Erickj92 | off of livecd | 20:22 |
| bluefoxx | mjw-: ok, the s3 wont work, so im trying a ati mach64 with 4 mb gram and two processors | 20:22 |
| bluefoxx | instead | 20:22 |
| RiPPeR666 | http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/57989/ this is my xorg.0.log file | 20:22 |
| danand | sdfowf - what your attempting to do seems a bit complex for my poor old brain :] | 20:22 |
| sdfowf | hmm. | 20:22 |
| lunks | Everytime I close my lid, a beep is heard... how to disable it? | 20:23 |
| mjw- | bluefoxx it wouldn't even boot in vga mode? | 20:23 |
| idefix | danand - I get unable to open pidfile '/var/run/cups/cupsd.pid' for writing | 20:23 |
| Some_Person | Erickj92: hmm, i've never heard of this issue, try using gparted instead of qtparted (i've been able to resize ext3 in gparted) | 20:23 |
| Armi1 | Help on Ati Drivers over here! <--- | 20:23 |
| idefix | danand - the dir does not exist | 20:23 |
| bluefoxx | mjw-: nope | 20:23 |
| danand | sdfowf - i would advise the kiss principle - keep it simple :] | 20:23 |
| Erickj92 | Some_Person, gtparted is not on the livecd, though | 20:23 |
| idefix | danand - CUPS is also not in my Synaptic Packet Manager :( | 20:23 |
| sdfowf | naw | 20:23 |
| mjw- | bluefoxx hopefully the mach64 will work. | 20:23 |
| Some_Person | Erickj92: ubuntu live cd? | 20:23 |
| Erickj92 | kubuntu | 20:24 |
| Some_Person | Erickj92: oh | 20:24 |
| mjw- | !justask | Armi1 | 20:24 |
| ubotu | Armi1: 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. :-) | 20:24 |
| sdfowf | need to ask the right people, everyone tells me i need to give the linux box an ipaddress to work, which makes NO sense | 20:24 |
| danand | idefix - check you have that file in /etc/init.d first | 20:24 |
| Armi1 | mjw-: sorry! | 20:24 |
| danand | idefix - ls /etc/init.d/cup* | 20:24 |

| bluefoxx | mjw-: ill just sell it or throw it into another computer that will run win95 or 98 XP. yes, hopefully. its scary that i can recall the models of most of my cards off the top of my head. except for the mystery card. its GPU is covered by a immovable heatsink and has no markings to go off of. | 20:25 |
| graft | !info xorg-driver-fglrx | 20:25 |

| Some_Person | Erickj92: sudo umount /wherever/it/is/mounted/to | 20:26 |
| idefix | anand - 92 files in /etc/init.d | 20:26 |
| graft | bluefox83: tried running dhcp by hand? | 20:26 |
| mjw- | bluefoxx you could stick the card in, boot off a minimal live cd of linux, and lspci to figure out what it is | 20:26 |
| Armi1 | graft: thanks! | 20:27 |
| geirha | !ati | armil | 20:27 |

| edyangra | Do anybody know anything about install web can in ubuntu? | 20:27 |
| Blinkiz | bluefoxx: Does not seems like my webcam can be found by cheese, camstream or gqcam. This is the output from dmesg when I plugin the camera: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/57990/ | 20:27 |
| c4f3 | webcam? | 20:27 |
| Erickj92 | Some_Person, it still does not let me edit the partitions. | 20:27 |
| bluefoxx | mjw-: its a AGP card, and i have only one mobo with a AGP slot[and it uses a slot one...] | 20:27 |
| idefix | danand - shall I just put an empty cupsd.pid in the dir? but shouldn't it be in /var/run/cups/ ? | 20:28 |
| bluefoxx | Blinkiz: ok, iwll check | 20:28 |
| danand | idefix - check that cups is correctly installled on your machine - type dpkg-query -s cupsys. 2nd or 3rd line down should tell you if its installed ok | 20:28 |
| edyangra | yes! | 20:28 |
| Some_Person | Erickj92: does it give an error? | 20:28 |
| jakobt | My X11 forwarding stopped working, it seems DISPLAY is not set, any | 20:28 |
| jakobt | ideers?My X11 forwarding stopped working, it seems DISPLAY is not set, any | 20:28 |
| jakobt | ideers? | 20:28 |
| Blinkiz | edyangra: hehe, currently investigation this. Just search for "webcam" in respository and you will find a bunch of tools | 20:28 |
| Erickj92 | Some_Person, the resize option is just greyed out. no error | 20:28 |
| c4f3 | haha | 20:28 |
| idefix | danand it's ok installed | 20:28 |
| Armi1 | geirha: What drivers should I install for my ATI Mobility gpu? Is flgxr the best choice? | 20:28 |
| c4f3 | wat your model? | 20:28 |
| Some_Person | Erickj92: try restarting qtparted after you unmounted the partition | 20:28 |
| mrunagi | Erickj92: is it mounted? | 20:29 |
| Erickj92 | no | 20:29 |
| Erickj92 | and i did restart it | 20:29 |
| Erickj92 | still no luck | 20:29 |
| mrunagi | it isnt unmounted? | 20:29 |
| edyangra | thank you | 20:29 |
| Erickj92 | yes | 20:29 |
| Some_Person | Erickj92: is this your only partition? | 20:29 |
| mjw- | armil: what is the output of lspci | grep -i vga | 20:29 |
| danand | jakobt - check your /etc/ssh/sshd.conf file - see if it allows X forwarding | 20:29 |
| bluefoxx | Blinkiz: can you pastbin you lsusb output? | 20:29 |
| bluefoxx | !who | c4f3 | 20:29 |
| ubotu | c4f3: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) | 20:29 |
| jakobt | danand - it does.. | 20:29 |
| mrunagi | Erickj92: do it from the live cd | 20:29 |
| Blinkiz | bluefoxx: Sure... | 20:29 |
| RiPPeR666 | what might this mean??? (WW) NVIDIA(GPU-0): Unable to read EDID for display device CRT-0 | 20:29 |
| Erickj92 | Some_Person, it is 2 partitions. one for my /boot, and one for the everything else | 20:29 |
| mjw- | RiPPeR666 you have an old CRT? | 20:30 |
| Armi1 | mjw-: "01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon Mobility X1400" | 20:30 |
| mjw- | Armi1 you will need fglrx for that one | 20:30 |
| mrunagi | Erickj92: do it from the live cd | 20:30 |
| Erickj92 | i am | 20:30 |
| danand | idefix - try and sudo /etc/init.d/cupsys start see what output you get | 20:30 |
| geirha | Armi1: If you don't get visual effects out of the box, you most likely need fglrx | 20:30 |
| mrunagi | are you on it now?/ | 20:30 |
| Erickj92 | yes | 20:30 |
| RiPPeR666 | mjw-: i have a lcd | 20:30 |
| idefix | I get: Usage: /etc/init.d/cupsd {start|stop|restart|force-reload} | 20:30 |
| mrunagi | try mounting then unmounting then load qtparted | 20:30 |
| idefix | danand.. | 20:30 |
| lunks | Everytime I close my lid, a beep is heard... how to disable it? | 20:30 |
| RiPPeR666 | mjw-: thats whats confusing me too | 20:31 |
| bluefoxx | mjw-: he probally uses a VGA port. my LCD detects as CRT0 when in my VGA port. | 20:31 |
| mrunagi | idefix: then cups is installed what are you trying to do | 20:31 |
| Armi1 | That just enabling it in Restricted Drivers? | 20:31 |
| Blinkiz | bluefoxx: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/57992/ | 20:31 |
| idefix | mrunagi, I cannot print | 20:31 |
| danand | idefix - sudo /etc/init.d/cupsys start | 20:31 |
| mjw- | RiPPeR666 the EDID info is something you're monitor has in it to tell the video card what it's capable of. I can't imagine any LCD not working with that | 20:31 |
| jakobt | danand - it must me something else.. I have tried searching the web.. but it seems i have not been able to fine a solution.. | 20:31 |
| bluefoxx | lunks: trying to browse the web stealthily? i used to do that XD[laptop+ evil parents+closet] | 20:31 |
| danand | jakobt - have you tried restarting the sshd server? | 20:32 |
| mrunagi | idefix: any errors? | 20:32 |
| idefix | danand - error: start-stop-daemon: Unable to open pidfile `/var/run/cups/cupsd.pid' for writing: | 20:32 |

| idefix | mrunagi yes | 20:32 |
| RiPPeR666 | mjw: yea do you think if the hsyc and the vsync were wrong in the xorg.conf would effect this | 20:32 |
| mrunagi | chown /that/ | 20:32 |
| ddd | hi i wanted to know how to properly partition ubuntu with a 60 GB hard drive...and 2 gigs of ram? | 20:32 |
| binaries-APP | lunks: that beep your hearing is your connection being pinged by the network | 20:32 |
| bluefoxx | Blinkiz: do you know which is your webcam? | 20:32 |
| Armi1 | girha: By enabling them in Restricted Drivers should all be set? | 20:32 |
| mrunagi | ddd: just for ubuntu? | 20:32 |
| RiPPeR666 | mjw-: yea do you think if the hsyc and the vsync were wrong in the xorg.conf would effect this | 20:32 |
| mjw- | RiPPeR666 perhaps, but i'm not an x.org expert ;) | 20:32 |
| ddd | yeah | 20:32 |
| Armi1 | mjw-: By enabling them in Restricted Drivers should all be set? | 20:32 |
| mrunagi | ddd: wipe it out | 20:33 |
| RiPPeR666 | sry for the duoble pst | 20:33 |
| ddd | wipe it out? | 20:33 |
| mrunagi | 1 free partition ddd | 20:33 |
| idefix | mrunagi there's no cups dir in the /var/run dir | 20:33 |
| jakobt | danand - yep.. | 20:33 |
| mrunagi | idefix: thats the problem | 20:33 |
| danand | idefix - just a quick check - can you use sudo - ie are you a member of the admin group? | 20:33 |
| ddd | hold on ill join here in a minute afterr i get into the live CD for ubuntu | 20:33 |
| bluefox83 | has anyone here ever set up an atheros AR5006EG in 64 bit gutsy? | 20:33 |
| mjw- | Armi1 hopefully so | 20:33 |
| RiPPeR666 | mjw-: there anothe line above a lil bit that has troble to so i post that see what you think | 20:33 |

| bluefoxx | Blinkiz: oops! lol. try pluging in your cam in a port before the mouse[eg: swap the ports theyr in] | 20:35 |
| danand | idefix - try sudo /etc/init.d/cupsys force-reload | 20:35 |
| idefix | unable to open /var/run/cups/cupsd.pid for writing | 20:35 |
| mrunagi | i would REALLY like to set up a desktop machine to act as a security camera server....can anyone point me in the right direction for my capture card problem? | 20:35 |
| bluefoxx | Blinkiz: i wonder why though...i have a logitech reciever in my system with a kbd and mouse on it, yet it doesnt get confused... | 20:36 |
| danand | idefix - if that doesn't work you may want to try and reinstall cupsys and see if that solves your problem | 20:36 |
| idefix | danand I had it working before upgrading my ubuntu | 20:36 |
| jk_ | some person you here? | 20:36 |
| idefix | danand, how do I do that? | 20:36 |
| RiPPeR666 | mjw-: i was thinking the same thing. in my xorg.conf it says busid pci is 4:0:0. but this is saying 5:0:0 i think its finding my other card in here and woundering why there r 2 | 20:36 |
| idefix | it's not in SPM | 20:36 |
| eifzon | I get this error when I try starting irssi in my chroot, I have /etc/passwd and /etc/groups in my chroot to, here is the error code: http://pastebin.ca/924903 | 20:36 |
| YazzY | hi chaps | 20:36 |

| YazzY | infoclog: cat /etc/debian_version | 20:37 |
| mjw- | RiPPeR666 ahhh, well then I have no idea at all. I'm completely unfamiliar with that kind of setup | 20:37 |
| Blinkiz | bluefoxx: Jepp, plugin in logitech webcam in another port (so it has lower number or something, I don know) did the trick. I now have picture in cheese :-D | 20:37 |
| RiPPeR666 | mjw-: hence why i think xorg.is getiing confused | 20:37 |
| danand | idefix - its possible the reinstall clobbered some config files... to reinstall type sudo apt-get --reinstall install cupsys | 20:37 |
| Eccorusz | is there any ubuntu in usb ? | 20:37 |
| idefix | danand, but this is silly the one dpkg query said CUPS is ok installed | 20:38 |
| bluefoxx | hehe, almost a month since i lost my system and files and i have 100GB of data back =3 | 20:38 |
| infoclog | YazzY, testing/unstable ! i meant like Edgy or somethin like that | 20:38 |

| idefix | /etc/init.d/cupsys /etc/init.d/cupsys.dpkg-dist | 20:39 |
| mrunagi | are capture cards not supported in ubuntu? | 20:39 |
| RiPPeR666 | mjw-: i did find and option in /etc/default/nvidia-kernal that it asks me how many cards are in the system | 20:39 |
| Eccorusz | is there ubuntu usb N | 20:39 |
| bluefoxx | Blinkiz: how much you pay for your cam anyways? im thinking of making a security camera array :} | 20:39 |
| mjw- | RiPPeR666 that is probably not referring to SLI setups | 20:39 |
| Blinkiz | bluefoxx: But I don't get picture in camstream. http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/57993/ | 20:39 |
| danand | idefix - did you try the reinstall and got errors? | 20:39 |
| RiPPeR666 | mjw- i was thinking the same thing | 20:40 |
| infoclog | YazzY, ??? | 20:40 |
| idefix | yes two errors, something lock and | 20:40 |
| Blinkiz | bluefoxx: Payed like 100 dollars for it a year ago or something... | 20:40 |
| jk_ | can i do a pc recovery on hp with the driver named d drive recovery? | 20:40 |
| Blinkiz | bluefoxx: Can't recommend it | 20:40 |

| heartsblood | I've got a HP photosmart 3100 hosted by cups on a osx box on my lan. Printing success from my ubuntu PC seems intermittent at best. It seems jobs are getting to the cubs server (I can see them on the completed page of the cups webserver) but I don't see them on the 'print jobs' page of the print que inside osx. Is is correct to think that the communication problem lies within the cups server on the mac or is it possib | 20:42 |
| heartsblood | le my gutsy box is sending trash requests to the print server? And by trash I mean information being misinterpreted. I've somehow installed two very different print que monitors on my system neither of which I can remove without completely removing gnome-desktop. | 20:42 |
| infoclog | mjw-, is there anyway to upgrade to the latest? | 20:43 |
| mjw- | !upgrade > infoclog | 20:43 |
| * bluefoxx starts on getting LotR onto his computer..and prepairs for the long and painful slow speed of shaw high speed light | 20:44 | |
| idefix | danand thanks a million | 20:44 |
| Lifeisfunny | Is there any way to get a USB flash memory device back when it's been formatted in ext2 ? My computer can't seem to find it. | 20:44 |
| SimplySeth | okay .. what is the ubuntu way of making a new initrd ? | 20:44 |
| dhq | i have a biometric device what application do i use to use it | 20:44 |
| bluefoxx | danand: it took me two weeks for a 6 gig file... | 20:45 |
| heartsblood | wait i'm sorry, not gnome-desktop "ubuntu-desktop". what exactly is the difference? | 20:45 |
| YazzY | any of you noticed Dbus core dump with XEN kernels on Hardy ? | 20:45 |
| danand | idefix - have you got cups back up and running? | 20:45 |
| idefix | yes it works perfectly now | 20:45 |
| Zara | Hello all, its been a few days since i've installed 7.10. problem is, i just don't seem to be getting any updates even with the universal repos on- for eg. i want the latest firefox 3 updates. | 20:45 |
| Zara | not showing up though | 20:45 |
| danand | idefix - cool :D | 20:45 |
| idefix | :D | 20:45 |
| SimplySeth | heartsblood: ubuntu has pretty ubuntu themes and such :) | 20:45 |
| bluefoxx | 802 songs, 7 days 15 hours 12 minutes 11.7 gigs. 90% electronica music. | 20:46 |
| danand | bluefoxx - but by god was it worth it :] | 20:46 |
| heartsblood | simplyseth: that's it? Why would 'ubuntu-desktop' be related to cups in any way? | 20:46 |
| zenwryly | Is there a way to export the permissions/security data for a directory tree? I want to see what has changed over time in terms of the modes, owners, and groups for a whole directroy tree. I'd also like to be able to store it. | 20:46 |
| eifzon | I get this error when I try starting irssi in my chroot, I have /etc/passwd and /etc/groups in my chroot to, here is the error code: http://pastebin.ca/924903 | 20:46 |
| heartsblood | simplyseth: the two seem completely unrelated | 20:46 |
| bluefoxx | danand: indeed | 20:46 |
| SimplySeth | heartsblood: so it can be an all emcompassing user friendly experience :) | 20:46 |
| danand | off down the pub - night all :) | 20:46 |
| kruqnut | what kind of special burn settings do i need to set to make ubuntu cd bootable? | 20:46 |
| zenwryly | I guess, essentially, I'd like to version the modes, owners, and groups of files and directories | 20:46 |
| mjw- | kruqnut: if you burn the ISO with any appropriate program, it's bootable automatically | 20:47 |
| bluefoxx | danand: now to back it up to my SATA drive, and soon enough to DVD | 20:47 |
| Blinkiz | bluefoxx: It seems like many programs wants to access /dev/video0 path to get picture from the webcam. How can I map my webcam to that path? | 20:47 |
| Blinkiz | bluefoxx: Or, what path does my webcam have? | 20:47 |
| kruqnut | ok so i can just brun image in nero? | 20:48 |
| BigCanOfTuna | I'd like to use rsync to update a file that is owned by root..ie /etc/init.d/asterisk. How do I do this when Ubuntu doesn't allow direct root login (which I would like to keep)? | 20:48 |
| mjw- | kruqnut yeah, using the burn from image option | 20:48 |
| j_ | Quick question about "the x server does not support the XRand R extension runtime resolution changes to the display size are not aviaiable" | 20:48 |
| bluefoxx | Blinkiz: that; i am not sure. it did it automatically for me...try opening /dev/video0 in vlc...it should be /dev/video0 unless you have some other tuner/video in device connected[like a tv card] ask on the forums too | 20:48 |
| idefix | danand there was another error I had " Could not start process Unable to create io-slave: klauncher said: Unknown protocol 'fonts'. " this is not solvable in the same way :( | 20:48 |
| idefix | danand shall we kick ass and solve two problems in a row? | 20:49 |
| Kohvihoor | why doesn't my ubuntu turn the ethernet card "on" anymore? | 20:49 |
| mad_max02 | Where are those drive icons located ? I created a location launcher and I wanna give it one of those desktop drive icons. | 20:49 |
| * bluefoxx loves having two screens...now he can watch his movies, look at pastbin stuff or test programs on one and chat on IRC, MSN or organize files on the other :D | 20:49 | |
| Lifeisfunny | bluefoxx, congrats, (I get the 'off topic' post when I make comments.) | 20:50 |
| mrunagi | does anyone know anything about capture cards? | 20:50 |
| SimplySeth | okay this is mad frustratin' .. there is no mkinitrd | 20:50 |
| venefyxatu | is there a way to check that my wireless card is physically able send out packets, ie. see if it's not broken? | 20:50 |
| Blinkiz | bluefoxx: Naa, nothing on /dev/video0. I search around. Thanks for all the help :) | 20:50 |

| idefix | any kformula users here? | 20:52 |
| venefyxatu | I was having it send out DHCP requests and have another computer run tcpdump on its wireless interface, but nothing seems to be showing up. Is that a bad sign, or am I doing something wrong? | 20:53 |

| tanath | Joeb454: know how to change it with sudo? | 21:29 |
| Jack_Sparrow | AstorZZZ, There is no default partition size .. most use ext3 because of journaling.. whatever that is | 21:29 |
| tanath | i forget | 21:29 |
| GSF1200S | ar1s_:thats cool- we havent installed your drivers yet... | 21:29 |
| AtomicSpark | AstorZZZ: ext3 will make your system heathier. it can auto repair itself. the perfomance difference of a non-journaling system is marginal. | 21:29 |
| AstorZZZ | well, if i freed 20gb space from one of my ntfs harddrives | 21:30 |
| ar1s_ | GSF1200S: aha...:D can you guide me through drivers installation? btw...i have enable the driver in restricted devices | 21:30 |
| AtomicSpark | journaling keeps track of what you are doing. basically if a file or a task doesn't complete fully, it will back itself out so its not half-done. | 21:30 |
| AstorZZZ | how do i partition 20gb harddrive for ubuntu? | 21:30 |
| Joeb454 | !ext3 | AstorZZZ | 21:30 |
| AstorZZZ | 2gb ram = 2gb swap disk | 21:30 |
| ubotu | AstorZZZ: ext3 is the default filesystem on Ubuntu, and the most popular on Linux. You can read/write from Windows to ext3 via http://www.fs-driver.org | 21:30 |
| GSF1200S | ar1s_: when did you enable the driver? | 21:30 |

| AstorZZZ | recommendations on partitioning a 20gb harddrive for ubuntu? | 21:32 |
| Joeb454 | tanath, try running passwd --help | 21:32 |
| Joeb454 | I've never done it through a terminal | 21:32 |

| Xore | i'm running a 7.04 install, and they no longer appear in the repositories. i don't want to use gcj. do i need to install sun's jdk manually or is it in another repository somewhere? | 21:53 |
| beautifulsnow | I guess it's too difficult to search google for "download ubuntu" uh. | 21:53 |
| DRebellion | beautifulsnow, have you tested rebooting without updating? | 21:53 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !java | 21:54 |
| ubotu | To install a Java runtime/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java6-jre from the !Multiverse repository (in !Backports for !Edgy) | 21:54 |
| beautifulsnow | DRebellion, you mean rebooting right after I login for the first time? Why would I do that? Yes, I logged in a few times before doing updates, the first time that I installed Ubuntu, and yes, the mouse stayed working | 21:54 |
| Kalamansi | hello what is the stable ubutu desktop and stable server ubuntu? for new pc | 21:55 |

I got the UID and GID of the new one.... is there a way to make that home folder work.... cuz I can't delete the existing home folder and it won't let me log in because the new account might have the same name but different UID | 21:55 |
| DRebellion | beautifulsnow, to see if it is rebooting and not updating that breaks your mouse | 21:55 |

| DRebellion | Kalamansi, 1.70 gutsy gibbon | 21:56 |
| beautifulsnow | Jack_Sparrow, no I had no idea, sorry about that... I figured they all use the same kernels and packages (right?), and I installed the base system only, so I thought I'd come here for help | 21:56 |
| Anthony_Sch | Hello! Can you help me with a little problem. I can simply take any window and drag it ot other workspace with my mouse, but only if spesial effects in desktop are ON. Can you suggest, is there a way to drag a window with effects OFF? And also, can I somehow change workspaces just by moving my mouse to the left or right border of the current workspace? Thanks in advance! | 21:56 |
| DRebellion | Kalamansi, 7.10 gutsy gibbon sorry :P | 21:56 |
| david | Kalamansi: 6.06 or 7.04 | 21:56 |
| Jack_Sparrow | beautifulsnow, There are many differences... | 21:57 |
| maarten_ | 7:10 | 21:57 |
| beautifulsnow | Squawk: I mean the Volume Up/Down, Next/Previous, Play/Pause | 21:57 |
| Xore | Jack_Sparrow: thanks. it seems i was missing a repository | 21:57 |
| beautifulsnow | Jack_Sparrow, would you recomend I use the normal Ubuntu instead? (I had MUCH trouble installing Pidgin in Ubuntu; U.Studio comes with it so thats why Im using it) | 21:57 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Xore, glad to hear you got it going | 21:58 |
| Jack_Sparrow | beautifulsnow, gutsy comes with pidgin. | 21:58 |
| Squawk | beautifulsnow, oh miles beyond me, I just have a mouse with 3 buttons. But as an idea, have a look in xorg.conf, and also make sure that the module for your mouse has been loaded (you need to know a bit about the kernel). Beyond that it would be a guess | 21:58 |
| Kalamansi | what is the difference betwen ubuntu desktop/server, xubuntu, kubuntu and edubuntu? im really confused...thanks | 21:58 |
| david | use the site Kalamansi | 21:58 |
| beautifulsnow | Squawk: I have no idea what should be loaded to make it work ;__; but thats my fault I guess | 21:58 |
| david | visit ubuntu | 21:58 |
| Jack_Sparrow | beautifulsnow, if you must have the latest pidgin, go to getdeb and get it ready to go for gutsy or feisty | 21:59 |
| demonspork | how do I set the default runlevel of ubuntu? I want it to boot up in init 4, rather than 5 | 21:59 |
| maarten_ | well kalamansi, just use ubuntu | 21:59 |
| beautifulsnow | Jack_Sparrow: I dont care if it's the latest, I just want to be able to use it ;p | 21:59 |
| Squawk | beautifulsnow, can you tell me what your mouse is? | 21:59 |
| maarten_ | server version is for text based console | 21:59 |
| Flannel | Kalamansi: The difference is simply the default packages installed. | 21:59 |
| beautifulsnow | Jack_Sparrow: I also tried installing from getdeb on regular ubuntu, and I was unable to install it (pidgin) | 21:59 |
| Flannel | Kalamansi: once installed, you can switch between them at will | 21:59 |
| beautifulsnow | Squawk: It's a Logitech MediaPlay | 21:59 |
| maarten_ | kalamansi, i used kubuntu first, kde based | 22:00 |
| prince_jammys | Kalamansi: ubuntu desktop: uses gnome desktop manager. ubuntu server: comes with server packages and no GUI desktop. xubuntu: uses the xfce4 desktop manager. kubuntu: uses the KDE desktop manager | 22:00 |
| maarten_ | kalamansi, but gnome based is easier | 22:00 |

| gravemind | what command kills while loops? | 22:06 |
| gravemind | besides closing | 22:06 |
| beautifulsnow | in command line? | 22:06 |
| prince_jammys | Kalamansi: let's say you installed ubuntu (which uses gnome). you can then also install kubuntu-desktop (which uses KDE) and have both on your computer. you can then select which desktop environment when you log in. | 22:06 |
| prince_jammys | Kalamansi: they just have a different | 22:07 |

| Wyvern| | does the Ubuntu kernel include most driver modules, or would you have to recompile it? | 22:08 |
| ripper | man that took fovever to figure out | 22:08 |

| Antkin | >Well only one greating what a waste of time for a newbie, bye in three minutes if I don't get a reply | 22:23 |
| hendrixski | chairmeleon, the requirements are that you have a system ... it will run on just about anything... maybe even your toaster | 22:24 |
| SimplySeth | Antkin: yep .. it can get frusteratin' | 22:24 |
| chairmeleon | a Debian desktop /w gnome, rhythmbox, networkmanager, firefox e.t.c, runs well in 192 megs of ram | 22:24 |
| chairmeleon | how come ubuntu has a minimum set on 320mb? | 22:24 |
| nickthorley | I am using virtualbox and wish to enter a custom resolution - the virtualbox manager says I need to use vboxmanage - is this available on ubuntu | 22:25 |
| Flannel | chairmeleon: the LiveCD does, not the actual install | 22:25 |
| Antkin | SimplySetth can you chat with me? | 22:25 |
| Flannel | carnegie: Is that your tripod account | 22:25 |
| hendrixski | chairmeleon, we add more services to Ubuntu... you can cut them out | 22:25 |
| ed1t | what repository do i need to get JDK 5? | 22:25 |
| Flannel | chairmeleon: to install on less (down to 40mb, I believe) you need to get the Alternate CD | 22:25 |
| stevecasper | how do you enable javascript? firefox claims its already enabled | 22:25 |
| ed1t | sun java 5 | 22:25 |
| chairmeleon | flannel: well..the alt. install CD says: installs on systems with less than about 320MB of RAM (although note that low-memory systems may not be able to run a full desktop environment reasonably). | 22:26 |
| SimplySeth | Antkin: I don't know much | 22:26 |

| jk_ | is there any good shooter game for linux? | 22:26 |
