| audrius | Starnestommy, oh thananks | 00:06 |
| soundray | !highno | Lars_G | 00:06 |
| ubotu | Lars_G: A higher version number does not mean that it's better. Especially with packages such as the linux kernel. The packages in the Ubuntu repositories are stable and will work fine. You should have a better reason than "newer" when considering compiling from source or using 3rd party repos. | 00:06 |
| neosix | Lars_G: aha | 00:06 |
| audrius | Jack_Sparrow, any ideas ? | 00:06 |
| bruenig | a higher version does mean it is better | 00:06 |

| grnmtn | then kill the pid number | 00:11 |
| grnmtn | or use killall processname | 00:11 |

| oboy03 | where is the problem here if i click on administration>network, it says configuration could not be loaded | 00:12 |
| danand_ | Karsyth - use the command - kill -9 $(pidof process_name) | 00:12 |

| Neuling | the letters jump | 00:13 |
| Karsyth | ok, how do i find the process name again? | 00:13 |
| grnmtn | only use kill -9 if a regular killall fails | 00:13 |
| Lars_G | Interesting.... insmod works, only modprobe fails | 00:13 |
| grnmtn | to find a process name, you can use top | 00:13 |
| JonZenor | Faust-C: Uhm, it didn't work, says mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on //205.168.1.10/Files, | 00:13 |
| Faust-C | htop | 00:13 |
| danand_ | Karsyth - use the command pidof process_name | 00:13 |
| grnmtn | it will list the processes using the most resources at the top of the list | 00:13 |
| Bryan_Sierra | I need a way to control the PCM volume control via the keyboard media keys. | 00:13 |
| Faust-C | JonZenor, hmm sec im gonna google a tad more | 00:13 |
| Karsyth | whenever i run that command it just goes to a new line | 00:14 |
| JonZenor | i'm trying too | 00:14 |
| Lars_G | Ok stuff works with insmod, I wonder if it'll work at reboot. sigh | 00:14 |
| danand_ | Karsyth - or use ps -A | grep process_name | 00:14 |
| prince_jammys | pgrep | 00:14 |
| JonZenor | I need to get ready for work soon | 00:15 |
| prince_jammys | i didn't know about pidof, seems to work like pgrep | 00:15 |
| oboy03 | where is the problem here if i click on administration>network, it says configuration could not be loaded, how do i fix it? | 00:15 |
| komputes | how do you turn off automatic NumLk after login? | 00:15 |
| jonathan_ | How can I find out where something went when I download it from synaptic? | 00:15 |
| danand_ | prince_jammys - pidof is great... if you know the exact name of the process :) ... firefox ... firefox-bin ... | 00:16 |
| Lars_G | Well back in X now let's see if it fixes the failure. | 00:16 |
| grnmtn | has anyone had problems with Intel GMA 950 drivers? I just moved a new computer, and everything looks really fuzzy - I can't figure out how to fix it | 00:16 |
| soundray | jonathan_: package files go to /var/cache/apt/archives | 00:16 |
| prince_jammys | danand_: i normally do that with pgrep | 00:16 |
| jonathan_ | soundray, thank you! | 00:16 |
| chetnick | how do you add startup programs trough shell ? | 00:16 |
| soundray | jonathan_: to get a list of files in a package, 'dpkg -L packagename' | 00:16 |
| Lars_G | it did. or so it seems | 00:16 |
| * danand_ is gonna check out pgrep | 00:16 | |
| Karsyt1 | i keep lagging out, sorry. how do i find the process list again? im kind of confused. whenever i enter the commands oyu tell me it goes to a blank line | 00:17 |
| grnmtn | top | 00:17 |
| soundray | Karsyt1: that usually means it has worked | 00:17 |
| Dr_willis_ | Karsyt1, the commands, top, or ps, are normally used | 00:17 |
| Karsyt1 | alright ive got the list | 00:17 |
| danand_ | prince_jammys - pgrep looks pretty cool too :) | 00:18 |
| prince_jammys | danand_: yeah | 00:18 |
| Karsyt1 | im still not seeing the name on the list | 00:18 |
| Karsyt1 | i cant figure out which one it is. im trying to run steam install | 00:18 |
| grnmtn | no one here with GMA 950 problems? | 00:18 |
| Dr_willis_ | Karsyt1, ps ax | grep steam | 00:19 |
| gigamonkey | Is there an easy way to clone my boot drive unto a USB thumb drive such that I could boot from it in a pinch? | 00:19 |
| grnmtn | Karsyt1 - what process are you trying to kill? | 00:19 |
| Karsyt1 | a steam install | 00:19 |
| komputes | is there a way to quickly switch between window managers or does one HAVE to log out and back in? | 00:19 |
| danand_ | gigamonkey - look into the dd command | 00:19 |
| Karsyt1 | im running it trhough wine | 00:19 |
| prince_jammys | danand_: they seem similar. pgrep has a few more options, though i normally don't use those | 00:19 |
| soundray | komputes: some wms have a --replace command line option | 00:19 |
| Dr_willis_ | komputes, many support a 'whatever --replace' option, or depending on how it got launched, you can kill it from a terminal, and run another. | 00:20 |
| Dr_willis_ | komputes, ive seen some that come with menu items to launch alternative window managers.. depends on your needs. | 00:20 |
| danand_ | prince_jammys - i usually use pidof in scripts - it's useful to list pid's of all running apps with the name you supply. | 00:21 |
| komputes | do you know how to do it with xfce, theres no xfce command, like 18 | 00:21 |
| prince_jammys | danand_: i'm seeing one difference: pidof requires the exact name, whereas pgrep works like grep | 00:22 |
| Dr_willis_ | komputes, do what exactly with xfce? | 00:22 |
| soundray | komputes: I don't think you can switch to xfce without logging out, since it's a whole environment | 00:22 |
| JonZenor | I can't figure out what's wrong! :( everything I look at says smbfs is the correct type, and I don't know what else would be wrong in that line | 00:22 |
| gigamonkey | danand_: so will something like dd if=/ of=/media/disk/ Just Work? | 00:22 |
| Lars_G | No ideas why I can insmod the module but not modprobe it? | 00:22 |
| prince_jammys | danand_: so pidof is probably safer, in scripts, unless you specify to match only the exact string | 00:22 |
| komputes | oh did i say window manager or desktop manager...my bad | 00:22 |
| danand_ | prince_jammys - that is the difference ... pidof is great _if_ you know the _exact_ process name | 00:23 |
| komputes | but good to know i can do twm --replace | 00:23 |
| Dr_willis_ | the xfce startup scripts - launch several of the xfce 'parts' | 00:23 |
| Dr_willis_ | Im not sure twm supports --replace :) | 00:23 |
| grnmtn | the problem with tools like pgrep is they aren't universal across all *nix operating systems, unlike ps and grep | 00:23 |
| komputes | yeah,i need to log out for that | 00:23 |
| danand_ | prince_jammys - yeah, safer for someone like me at least :) | 00:23 |
| grnmtn | if you're talking about scripting | 00:23 |

| komputes | Mezriss: someone made a script for mount/unmount iso | 00:25 |
| Dr_willis_ | The fuseiso tool is also handy for mounting iso files | 00:25 |
| gigamonkey | Ah. Never mind, I want to use the /dev/sd<FOO> as the if and of. | 00:25 |
| magnetron | JonZenor: don't use smbfs, it's deprecated. use cifs instead | 00:25 |
| JonZenor | cifs? okay, I'll try it | 00:25 |
| Dr_willis_ | The Fusesmb tool - is handy also. you dont have to mess with the fstab :) | 00:25 |

| morghanphoenix | soundray: I suggested virtualization and then asked if the version they were asking about was the intel based one, I know the PPC ones rune like a dessicated snail. | 00:33 |
| soundray | morghanphoenix: got it. Note, !who | 00:33 |
| Flannel | sidelil: http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/html_node/Making-a-GRUB-bootable-CD_002dROM.html is probably the easiest method. Puts GRUB on the CD, and then you can do whatever from GRUB. Also, Smart Boot Manager may also be a good choice | 00:34 |
| Leetbumble | goodnight/goodday/ttyl | 00:35 |
| sidelil | Flannel, thank you very much | 00:35 |
| ypSami | Hey all. Since I'm forced to install imagemagick 6.3.x via source, what is the best way to install via source that ensures a clean uninstall? | 00:35 |
| soundray | !checkinstall | ypSami | 00:36 |
| ubotu | ypSami: checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall - Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page, and DO NOT interrupt CheckInstall while it's running! | 00:36 |
| ypSami | lordy that's a convenient binary | 00:36 |
| ypSami | thanks guys | 00:36 |
| ypSami | or.. thanks soundray ? | 00:36 |
| ypSami | =D | 00:36 |
| morghanphoenix | Speaking of which, it's about time I insrtalled it again so I can run XP, forgot I hadn't put it back on since I decided to try the buntus again. | 00:36 |
| * Mezriss starts to hate Gmount-iso | 00:37 | |
| ypSami | This is my first time using ubuntu as a serious web server. I'm a debian guy personally. | 00:37 |
| morghanphoenix | Still a pretty new distro when I used it before and was pretty unstable, seems to have improved quite a bit since then, though the lack of an actually root account still annoys me. | 00:37 |
| Flannel | ypSami: Why are you choosing Ubuntu over Debian for the server, may I ask? | 00:38 |
| jonathan_ | How would I get to "/var/cache/apt/archives?" | 00:38 |
| soundray | ypSami: hardy will come with imagemagick 6.3.7.9 or later -- you could backport it yourself | 00:38 |
| hischild | soundray, wait.... that actually works? like ... you can install it with that? | 00:38 |
| Jimdb | hey, i have a wierd one, tho I don't think it is impossible to understand and ultimately figure out. I just installed 7.10 on an HP zx5000 laptop. The install went well but I had a sound issue. sound wouldn't play. If I tried to play the cpu utilization would hit 100%. If I tried to quit programs such as amarok, etc after terminating they'd still be listed in the system monitor as zombies and the cpu utilization would remain 100%. I | 00:38 |
| Karsyth | anyone know where i install fonts to? | 00:38 |
| Flannel | morghanphoenix: You're not required to not have a root password; but why does it annoy you? | 00:38 |
| ypSami | Flannel: Rightscale offers Ubuntu images that are integrated, but not debian. I'd prefer debian. | 00:38 |
| nickrud | !fonts | Karsyth | 00:38 |
| ubotu | Karsyth: Font installation basics here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FontInstallHowto - No fonts in Flash? Install "msttcorefonts" (from !Multiverse), "gsfonts", and "gsfonts-x11". No fonts in MPlayer? see !MPlayer | 00:38 |
| Karsyth | thanks | 00:38 |
| danhs | hey, how can I see what daemon processes are running? like I know apached and vsftpd are running. but they don't show up in system-monitor. only place I can really see them is ps -Al and that's kind of not very easy to read/concise/clear..... | 00:38 |
| morghanphoenix | just not what I'm used to, keep typing su :) | 00:39 |
| danhs | any suggestions? | 00:39 |
| soundray | hischild: checkinstall? Apparently so... | 00:39 |
| EpicLegion | Hello, would anyone mind helping me with some probs I'm having with my vid card? | 00:39 |
| danhs | I'm a little used to windows where I can see processes from task manager, or services running | 00:39 |
| morghanphoenix | never had any of my users as a sudoer either, kept all that relegated to root land. | 00:39 |
| oboy03 | configuration could not be loaded appears when i click on administration>network, what should i do? | 00:39 |
| Flannel | danhs: ps aux will show you all of them | 00:39 |
| danand_ | danhs - psgrep... prince_jammys - :) | 00:40 |
| danhs | aux? | 00:40 |
| EpicLegion | Hey, I got some probs with my NVIDIA card, can anyone help? | 00:40 |
| Maimster | Can anyone grab this file, (Windows XP SP2) I got this file from this link on a Winblows box in 4 minutes, 39 seconds. The file is 266MB http://www.soft32.com/Download/Free/Windows_XP_Service_Pack_2/4-992-1.html | 00:40 |
| prince_jammys | danand_: pgrep? | 00:40 |
| Jimdb | danhs: go to the system menu, then administration, then system monitor | 00:40 |
| morghanphoenix | kde has a pretty windows like process table, not sure about gnome though. | 00:40 |
| Flannel | morghanphoenix: sudo provides a lot more flexibility than just having a root account, which is one of the main reasons Ubuntu uses it | 00:40 |
| danhs | Jimdb: system monitor not sufficient | 00:40 |
| soundray | danhs: they *should* show up in system-monitor as well | 00:40 |
| Jimdb | danhs: why? | 00:40 |
| danand_ | prince_jammys - crap... useless at remembering new commands :) | 00:40 |
| icesword | Maimster, windows?#windows | 00:40 |
| Maimster | For some reason my Linux box needs 3 hours to download this. | 00:40 |
| Jimdb | danhs: it has everything that task manager has and more. | 00:41 |
| Maimster | icesword Its just a test. | 00:41 |
| danhs | Jimdb: It's not showing apache2 | 00:41 |
| danhs | definitely.... | 00:41 |
| prince_jammys | danand_: i thought you discovered another one :) | 00:41 |
| danhs | and I *know* that apache is running | 00:41 |
| EpicLegion | I need some help with my vid card | 00:41 |
| Mezriss | is there a way to learn which process is accesing a file? | 00:41 |
| icesword | Maimster, use multi thread download tools | 00:41 |
| morghanphoenix | soft32 is a slow server | 00:41 |
| danhs | oh wait....view was set to "my processes" | 00:41 |
| danhs | tricky..... | 00:41 |
| soundray | Mezriss: lsof | 00:41 |
| Jimdb | danhs: top run in a terminal doesn't show apache? | 00:41 |
| Maimster | icesword I just can't explain why my Ubuntu 7.10 is stopping at 10Kbps. | 00:41 |
| EpicLegion | Hey, can anyone help me with the prob I'm having with my vid card? | 00:41 |
| Mezriss | thanks | 00:41 |
| danhs | ps aux does | 00:41 |
| danand_ | prince_jammys - psgrep .... auto shows all the info you ever wanted .... ahhhhh | 00:41 |
| danhs | ps -Al does | 00:42 |
| hischild | soundray, hmm ... i've gotta remember that one then ... i've got a lot to install from source and it's a pain to uninstall something | 00:42 |
| Flannel | Jimdb: likely that apache isn't a top process | 00:42 |
| danhs | and system monitor does when I change view to something other than my process | 00:42 |
| icesword | !download | 00:42 |
| ubotu | Ubuntu installation CDs can be downloaded from http://nl.releases.ubuntu.com - Mirrors can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Archive - PLEASE use the !torrents to download Gutsy, and help keeping the servers' load low! | 00:42 |
| icesword | !download tools | 00:42 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about download tools - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 00:42 |
| rrplay | Epiclegion: what is your problem | 00:42 |
| danhs | top doesn't show apache | 00:42 |
| Jimdb | danhs: you can stretch the window and i'll show more than 33 | 00:42 |
| EpicLegion | rrplay: Well, first off, I should tell you I'm a long time Windows user | 00:42 |
| danhs | Jimdb: I can stretch top? | 00:42 |
| Starnestommy | apache is usually apache2 in ps aux | 00:42 |
| Maimster | icesword What does the download tools do? | 00:42 |
| EpicLegion | rrpaly: So I'm kinda new to this stuff | 00:42 |
| Jimdb | yes | 00:42 |
| EpicLegion | rrplay: Anyway, I have a NVIDIA 8500 GT GeForce | 00:43 |
| rrplay | Epiclegion:: what chipset do you have | 00:43 |
| danhs | yea definitely not in the top 33 or whatever the number is | 00:43 |
| fernando | #winehq | 00:43 |
| danhs | it is in system monitor tho' | 00:43 |
| rrplay | EpicLegion nvidia-settings as root | 00:43 |
| icesword | Maimster, it usually build multi thread downloading | 00:43 |
| danhs | is there a way to see the path to the executable tho? | 00:43 |
| EpicLegion | rrplay: And I've installed the latest linux driver for my card | 00:43 |
| EpicLegion | And now | 00:43 |
| Jimdb | did I ask the wrong question when I asked about HP laptop sound issues? | 00:43 |
| EpicLegion | rrplay: When I try to enable the Restricted driver | 00:43 |
| EpicLegion | rrplay: And reboot | 00:43 |
| jms1989 | How can one setup apache2 to stream media instead of downloading and then playing? | 00:44 |
| EpicLegion | rrplay: I go into low-graphics mode | 00:44 |
| EpicLegion | rrplay: And have to select my stuff | 00:44 |
| Maimster | icesword Okay that makes sense, however why is the other machines on the same network out performing mine without extra software? Just strange. | 00:44 |
| EpicLegion | rrplay: And the driver still isn't enabled | 00:44 |
| danhs | ahhhh command line.....that is pretty sweet | 00:44 |
| listeper | Does anyone know if and when eclipse 3.3.x is gonna be included in the package manager? | 00:44 |
| rrplay | EpicLegion: look here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=674185 | 00:44 |
| soundray | Jimdb: probably not, but you may have to repeat or rephrase a couple of times until someone jumps on it | 00:44 |
| Maimster | icesword I am thinking about taking this machine to another location to test another broadband account. | 00:45 |
| soundray | !sound > Jimdb, meantime, have you seen this? (private message) | 00:45 |
| PriceChild | listeper: ubuntu is frozen on release. Only security and critical bug fixes are added. | 00:45 |
| Jimdb | soundray: last time I did that I got nailed with "don't repeat your question". | 00:45 |
| rrplay | EpicLegion nvidia-xconfig -A | less read and select option for your card | 00:45 |
| danand_ | danhs - htop is better than top. htop allows you to scroll through all processes | 00:45 |
| PriceChild | listeper: it may be in ubuntu 8.04, check packages.ubuntu.com | 00:45 |
| ryanzec | is there a good UML software like visio or smartdraw for ubuntu? | 00:45 |
| icesword | Maimster, what you mean by out performing mine without | 00:45 |
| danhs | danand_: oooh | 00:45 |
| soundray | Jimdb: no one will say that if you leave 10 minutes or so | 00:45 |
| audrius | what graphical iterface u are using kde or gnome? | 00:45 |
| EpicLegion | rrplay: Uh | 00:46 |
| EpicLegion | rrplay: That's not really the problem I'm having | 00:46 |
| audrius | what graphical iterface u are using kde or gnome? | 00:46 |
| Maimster | icesword I have 6 machines on this cable modem. They download from that super fast site at like 900 - 1.5Mbps. | 00:46 |
| Jimdb | soundray: that's why i didn't repeat it...but...to be honest, my question stated I'd torn through the threads on the support forums and many ppl have no resolution to their hp laptop sound issues. | 00:46 |
| ryanzec | audrius, was that for me? | 00:46 |
| icesword | oh, i see | 00:46 |
| Maimster | icesword For some strange reason this newly configure ubuntu 7.10 just can't go fastst than like 30kbps. | 00:46 |
| listeper | Thansk PriceChild. | 00:46 |
| danhs | danand_: that htop.....that is friggin sweet | 00:46 |
| boxafella | hi everyone | 00:47 |
| Maimster | icesword That was why I wanted someone else to download to see what they get for speed. | 00:47 |
| soundray | Jimdb: I see. Have you looked for installation reports on tuxmobil.org ? | 00:47 |
| icesword | this is just weird | 00:47 |
| TrichomeKid | Okay, so I was messing with the inside of my machjine (Not that relevant), but when I started up Ubuntu.. the icons on the one taskbar were in the middle. The Network Connection icon is now in the middle I can't move it. Anyone know why? | 00:47 |
| Maimster | icesword Exactly. | 00:47 |
| rrplay | EpicLegion: so what is the problem that you are having?? after reading in the forums ? | 00:47 |
| danand_ | danhs - you'll never use top again ... :) alias top='htop' | 00:47 |
| Maimster | icesword I have been working with it for 5 days now. | 00:47 |
| PriceChild | TrichomeKid: right click and uncheck lock | 00:47 |
| danhs | danand_: good call | 00:47 |
| soundray | TrichomeKid: you must have switched resolutions at some point | 00:47 |
| rhineheart_m | ypSami: are you using it for Gallery2? | 00:47 |
| TrichomeKid | PriceChild: The network icon doesn't have an unlock feature. | 00:47 |
| orudie | can i create new user and specify permissions through terminal ? | 00:48 |
| ypSami | rhineheart_m: no | 00:48 |
| boxafella | I've done a lot of research, and found drivers myself.. i've even attempted compiling them, but i haven't had any luck in getting my webcam to work | 00:48 |
| boxafella | can anyone help me? | 00:48 |
| jonathan_ | somehow I accidentally got rid of my desktop, and I can't remember how to put it back on. Could someone help? | 00:48 |
| jonathan_ | All I have is my compiz cube picture | 00:48 |
| EpicLegion | rrplay: Okay, the problem is that I enable the restricted drivers for my vid card. On reboot, I'm sent into low-graphics mode. I select my monitor and vid card drivers, and when I get into the GUI, the restricted drivers still aren't enabled | 00:48 |
| TrichomeKid | soundray: The resolution is the same. But I will try switching to a different one. | 00:48 |
| Maimster | icesword The sad part is that I used the Ubuntu Terminal Server Client to do the downloads on the other boxes and they still out performed mine. | 00:48 |
| soundray | TrichomeKid: the network "icon" is in the Notification Area applet. Right-click the faint dots to the left of the icon | 00:49 |
| boxafella | I've done a lot of research, and found drivers myself.. i've even attempted compiling them, but i haven't had any luck in getting my webcam to work | 00:49 |
| Jimdb | soundray: I think sound in linux on laptops has a serious need to be fixed. I have probably 5 solid laptops here and all exhibit some sound related issues. I'm not sure if you are interested in knowing how I got around my issues. | 00:49 |
| jonathan_ | Anyone know the problem? | 00:49 |
| danand_ | emma - uh... did u just pm me? | 00:49 |
| rrplay | EpicLegion: did you try those command at the console nvidia-settings nvidia-xconfig -A | less | 00:49 |
| soundray | Jimdb: don't let my nickname mislead you -- it dates back to a time when I did ultrasound research | 00:49 |
| EpicLegion | rrplay: Which console? | 00:50 |
| boxafella | I've done a lot of research, and found drivers myself.. i've even attempted compiling them, but i haven't had any luck in getting my webcam to work | 00:50 |
| icesword | Maimster, i think it is networking issue,not sure,what if you run ifconfig | 00:50 |
| TrichomeKid | soundray: Now that you mention it, I can't find those faint dots anymore... | 00:50 |
| soundray | TrichomeKid: they may be covered up by another applet. | 00:50 |
| boxafella | anyone? | 00:50 |
| boxafella | anyone at all? | 00:50 |
| rrplay | EpicLegion: the terminal | 00:50 |
| Maimster | icesword I thought about that too. So I did a download internally. My Ubuntu box killed the others by about 2MBps!! | 00:50 |
| EpicLegion | rrplay: No, I haven't | 00:50 |
| EpicLegion | rrplay: Do I need to stop my gdm? | 00:51 |
| boxafella | thanks guys | 00:51 |
| Mezriss | how should I add user to a group? opened group properties, marked users which I wanted to add, pressed ok. then I've decided to check it and opened group properties again, but none of the users were marked | 00:51 |
| TrichomeKid | soundray: Okay, thanks. The dots are gone now, strange. But I right-clicked right next to it and was able to move it. | 00:51 |
| audrius | what graphical iterface u are using kde or gnome? | 00:51 |
| rrplay | EpicLegion will just try those 2 first | 00:51 |
| EpicLegion | rrplay: k one sec | 00:51 |
| audrius | wuetion for all of u | 00:51 |
| Scunizi | boxafella, what kind of webcam? | 00:51 |
| Jimdb | soundray: i am wondering if there's a need to break out this support area into smaller more specialized areas. I know there are some such as #samba, etc. but there probably should be some for laptops and then broken down by issue: sound, video, wireless, modems, etc. | 00:51 |
| Maimster | icesword I grabbed the same file from an internal FTP. I got about 8.5Mbps | 00:51 |
| Flannel | Jimdb: #ubuntu-offtopic for that discussion, and let me save you the time: not really, it wouldn't ever work. | 00:51 |
| boxafella | Scunizi: a Logitech quickcam preloaded on my XPS 1210 | 00:51 |
| Jimdb | flannel: thanks but this isn't off topic. thanks again tho. | 00:52 |
| Scunizi | boxafella, let me check something.. hang on. | 00:52 |
| Maimster | icesword I think Comcast is blocking me. Only i am NOBODY special. | 00:52 |
| zippytech | any one know how i can get my system to try idap auth after the network is up? | 00:52 |
| boxafella | Thanks. | 00:52 |
| icesword | Maimster, seems it is working fine | 00:52 |
| Flannel | Jimdb: it is offtopic, this is support only, that's a meta-support question. | 00:52 |
| soundray | Jimdb: I agree with Flannel on both counts (offtopic and wouldn't work) | 00:52 |
| boxafella | I have research links, if you'd care to see.. My own troubleshooting exploring | 00:52 |
| Jimdb | flannel, only you think that. | 00:52 |
| soundray | Jimdb: read me carefully | 00:52 |
| Jimdb | flannel: i asked a sound question | 00:52 |
| icesword | Maimster, you mean they limit your bandwith | 00:52 |
| Maimster | icesword Definately. My Ubuntu 6.10 is great. Just weird is all. I can not figure this out. | 00:52 |
| fluo | how can one output audio to /dev/audio? | 00:52 |
| LjL | Jimdb, the sound question is not offtopic. the splitting-the-channel thing is. | 00:53 |
| Flannel | Jimdb: the sound question is good here. The channel scheme discussion is offtopic, but we'll all be happy to discuss it there. | 00:53 |
| soundray | fluo: 'cat file >/dev/audio' | 00:53 |
| Maimster | icesword I was googling and found that comcast with messing with the bitorrent protocol and stuff like that. | 00:53 |
| Scunizi | boxafella, is it the pro version? | 00:53 |
| fernando | i feel ashamed for asking this question ... but how can I move to #winehq to put a wine question? | 00:53 |
| LjL | fernando: /join #winehq | 00:53 |
| boxafella | i believe so, Scunizi | 00:53 |
| Maimster | icesword They are not under a Class Action Lawsuit. | 00:53 |
| fluo | soundray, I was thinking about the music I'm listenning, not just a file | 00:53 |
| icesword | Maimster, coz they cause lot of pressur | 00:53 |
| boxafella | Let me check Dell's website real quick.. | 00:53 |
| fernando | Lorenzo : Thx | 00:53 |
| fernando | /join #winehq | 00:54 |
| Maimster | icesword Sorry company!! I can't wait til Verizon comes out with FIOS in my area. I am gone from the little ISP. | 00:54 |
| LjL | fernando: without a leading space | 00:54 |
| Scunizi | boxafella, have you seen this link? http://www.seismo.ethz.ch/linux/webcam.html | 00:54 |
| Jimdb | flannel: i disagree. but you are going off topic yourself according to your rules. | 00:54 |
| icesword | Maimster, bandwith limit is comman | 00:54 |
| EpicLegion | rrplay: Okay, on the settings command, I got a bunch of "Not Found" | 00:54 |
| Maimster | icesword Then why don't the other machines feel the same limits? They share the same connection. | 00:55 |
| EpicLegion | rrplay: On the -A, I got Syntax error ")" unexpexted | 00:55 |
| rrplay | EpicLegion: nvidia-settings as root sudo nvidi-settings | 00:55 |
| EpicLegion | rrplay: I did | 00:55 |
| rrplay | nvidia-settings | 00:55 |
| sam_ | what is the terminal command to install kde desktop? | 00:55 |
| rrplay | then you do not have the drivers installed | 00:55 |
| soundray | sam_: 'sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop' | 00:56 |
| boxafella | Scunizi, no | 00:56 |
| EpicLegion | rrplay: Uh, yeah, i do | 00:56 |
| Scunizi | boxafella, also.. are you running Gutsy? if so USB support is a little weird. My Creative cam has to be plugged in when I start the machine to be seen properly. | 00:56 |
| icesword | Maimster, you said you use a modem ,now can you monitor that modem,i mean how much of bandwith beem used | 00:56 |
| boxafella | Yes. | 00:56 |
| boxafella | But it's a preinstalled camera | 00:56 |
| sam_ | soundray: thanks | 00:56 |

| EpicLegion | rrplay: I never have | 00:56 |

| soundray | fluo: what exactly do you want to achieve? | 00:57 |
| boxafella | Scunizi, this is where I got the instructions on the drivers and install http://openfacts.berlios.de/index-en.phtml?title=Linux+UVC | 00:57 |
| Scunizi | boxafella, true.. :(.. Webcam support in linux is poor primarily because the manufacturers have propriatory drivers that have to be reverse engineered. | 00:57 |

| Jorophose | So I'm trying to compile Geany on my 6.06 machine and following Psychocats guide am going to use "sudo checkinstall -D" instead of "sudo make install". But does this also do the equivelent of "make clean"? | 01:00 |
| soundray | faileas: System-Preferences-Universal Access | 01:00 |
| Flannel | Jorophose: checkinstall creates a deb file that you install, to remove the installed package, you use package management | 01:00 |
| Maimster | icesword Actually hitting 12 KB/sec | 01:00 |
| soundray | Jorophose: no, you should probably do 'make clean' before the checkinstall step | 01:01 |
| Jorophose | alright, thanks. What happens if I've missed it though? | 01:01 |
| Jorophose | like ran "make clean" afterwards? | 01:01 |
| m0u5e | anyone know hot to break symbolic links on a directory without actually deleting that actual directory? | 01:01 |
| Jorophose | or does deleting the directory I was working in clear everything? | 01:01 |
| Flannel | Jorophose: make clean won't really do anything except clean up your temporary made files, checkinstall may do it automatically anyway, I dont know. | 01:02 |
| icesword | Maimster, i am not sure how your internal network is built,but i think it is the bandwith limit | 01:02 |
| joesoundguy | I need help with my cd-rom Ubuntu gutsy is Mounting but will not browse...only brings m to burn optio | 01:02 |
| EpicLegion | rrplay: You there? | 01:02 |
| rrplay | EpicLegion: sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 01:02 |
| Jorophose | Well, I think it did try cleaning up temp files. Wouldn't they be stored in the directory and /tmp/ anyways? | 01:02 |
| rrplay | sorry my typo | 01:02 |
| soundray | !gksu | rrplay | 01:02 |
| ubotu | rrplay: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) | 01:02 |
| rrplay | EpicLegion: | 01:02 |
| EpicLegion | rrplay: Okay | 01:03 |
| EpicLegion | rrplay: What do I change and where? | 01:03 |
| rrplay | thanks for the reminder | 01:03 |
| soundray | faileas: does that do what you need? | 01:03 |
| prettyricky | Can you add OS X to a windows system. I currently have Xp and Ubuntu? | 01:03 |
| Flannel | Jorophose: depends on the makefile. Usually it's all made in . though, or a subdirectory of . | 01:03 |
| Flannel | prettyricky: Yes. Assuming you have a mac and the installation media. | 01:03 |
| Jorophose | .? As in current? If it is, then I guess there shouldn't be a problem because I deleted the directory after =/ | 01:03 |
| prettyricky | Oh it has to be a Mac, I have XP | 01:04 |
| joesoundguy | need CDrom help. Gutsy will mount but not browse | 01:04 |
| osmosis | where do I set a bash variable that I want to be available to my crontab ? | 01:04 |
| Flannel | Jorophose: Then yeah, you're fine. Again, I'm pretty sure checkinstall cleans all that up anyway | 01:04 |
| rrplay | EpicLegion: look Section Device and see if you need to change nv to nvidia | 01:04 |
| LinuxMonkey | mac on pc = violation of your mac software agreement, therefore you would be breaking the law | 01:04 |

| Maimster | icesword I even switched cables too. | 01:10 |
| joesoundguy | Scunizi....I sorry I not being clear. THe system is up and running fine except when I insert a CDrom and click Browse I am ALWAYS promted to the Burn window and never get to browse the CD contents | 01:10 |
| icesword | Maimster, every box automatically gain ip address? | 01:10 |
| Scunizi | joesoundguy, try from the terminal the way I mentioned above. | 01:10 |
| Maimster | icesword Yes. | 01:10 |
| Maimster | icesword Even connect the box directly to the modem, same results. | 01:11 |
| asker | hi, which command is neccessary to find out unused packages? how can i remove them then? | 01:11 |
| rrplay | !deborphan | 01:11 |
| ubotu | deborphan is a program used to clean up packages that are no longer needed (install from Synaptic/Adept). | 01:11 |
| danand_ | asker - use sudo apt-get autoremove | 01:12 |
| icesword | Maimster, ohhh,you think ubuntu itself by someway is blocking speed | 01:12 |
| joesoundguy | Scunizi...cdrom0 LS yields nuthin and cdrom1 o such device | 01:12 |
| Scunizi | joesoundguy, ls must be lower case.. you probably know that but I had to say it. | 01:12 |
| joesoundguy | Scunizi...it was in the terminal | 01:12 |
| Scunizi | joesoundguy, with lower case.. right? no caps | 01:13 |
| astheo | hi, where can i find the fstab file | 01:13 |
| asker | danand_: then both inquiries are fulfilled? | 01:13 |
| Maimster | icesword Get this... I just ssh'ed into another Ubuntu 7.10 box. Used Wget for the file and I am getting 782Kb/sec | 01:13 |
| joesoundguy | rScunizi ight | 01:13 |
| joesoundguy | Scunizi Right | 01:13 |
| Scunizi | joesoundguy, does it do it only on this cd? | 01:13 |
| Maimster | icesword ETA is under 5 minutes for the 266MB file. | 01:13 |
| Maimster | icesword My box is killing me somehow. | 01:14 |
| joesoundguy | Scunizi No. Any data cd behaves this way | 01:14 |
| rhineheart_m | Flannel: thanks for the response.. but that one will only work if you're logged as superuser | 01:14 |
| ugaucho | hi there | 01:14 |
| Maimster | icesword Maybe, MAIMSTER has MAIMED his own box? lol | 01:14 |
| astheo | hi, where can i find the fstab file? | 01:14 |
| Starnestommy | astheo: /etc/fstab | 01:14 |
| Scunizi | joesoundguy, do you have an commercially burned cd's that you can test against? and have you tried burning your own cd's? | 01:14 |
| astheo | thanx | 01:15 |
| Flannel | rhineheart_m: No, you reboot to the recovery console | 01:15 |

| desertc | anyone got mythtv set up, so I can ask a couple easy questions? | 01:15 |
| ugaucho | i need support for geforce6600 / display resolution / xorg | 01:15 |
| joesoundguy | Scunizi Yes. Itś a commercial CD that worx in my other PC and my Mac. | 01:15 |
| mike | hey everyone, i just installed gutsy on my laptop today and im trying to figure out how to sync my second gen ipod and what program i should use to do it | 01:15 |
| Maimster | icesword Just joking, As I can not understand what is going on in my box that is doing this. I setup about 10 Ubuntu 7.10 boxes. | 01:15 |
| Maimster | icesword I bet it is the Intel DG31PR board. | 01:15 |
| Flannel | !ipod | mike | 01:15 |
| ubotu | mike: For information on how to sync and add tracks to your iPod, see the guide at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IPodHowto - See !RockBox for information on liberating your iPod | 01:15 |
| danand_ | asker - if you have messages from apt saying that packages are no longer required then use apt-get autoremove ... to search for packages etc that are no longer required ... use deborphan | 01:16 |
| Maimster | icesword Probably that is what's doing it. | 01:16 |
| mike | THANK YOU!!! JACKPOT | 01:16 |
| joesoundguy | Scunizi..Just tried a commercialy purchased Music CD and the same thing happens | 01:16 |
| rrplay | ugaucho: gksudo nvidia-settings | 01:16 |

| icesword | Maimster, so you mean you lack network card drivers | 01:16 |
| Scunizi | joesoundguy, do the lights light on the front of the cd player like it's trying to do something? | 01:16 |
| Jorge_ | Is there an Age of Empires equivalent for Linux that anyone knows of? | 01:16 |
| Eleaf | Does anybody know of a good time tracking program? I forgot the name, you type what you are doing and the program records how long you do it. | 01:16 |
| Maimster | icesword If so how am I connected to freenode? | 01:16 |
| Maimster | icesword Using the box now. | 01:17 |
| Eleaf | I have the program installed, I can't figure out what it is though, I've been searching for 10 minutes | 01:17 |
| joesoundguy | Scunizi Yes and disk mounter says the disk is mounted | 01:17 |
| amenado | Eleaf-> time | 01:17 |
| Eleaf | amenado, that's to track programs | 01:17 |

| icesword | Maimster, no,it can use restricted drivers,then may stop its function | 01:17 |
| Eleaf | There is a program that tracks time, but it won't show up in any searches | 01:17 |
| joesoundguy | Scunizi I think I have a Nautilus problem. the hardware seems to work | 01:17 |
| rhineheart_m | Flannel: thanks...but my machine doesn't have GUI.. it's a server | 01:18 |
| manic12_ | what is the correct way to launch the xserver, if i do sudo xstart it gives me a security warning, if i just do it as a normal user, some apps don't work | 01:18 |
| Maimster | icesword I can check to see if there are any restricted drivers then.. hold checking now. | 01:18 |
| Scunizi | joesoundguy, weird.. I'm afraid I'm out of ideas.. Nautilus might but that won't effect the terminal way of browsing. | 01:18 |
| Eleaf | I really loath how difficult it is to find something that was so easy to find before | 01:18 |
| danand_ | asker - deborphan is a package you can install - type sudo apt-get install deborphan in a terminal | 01:18 |

| LinuxMonkey | k1ro: lol 74% its getting there | 02:06 |

| bluebanana | I'm on a wireless network. I'm curently looking at a hosts list. IP address for one of them is 1XX.XXX.0.1 while the IP address for the other one is 1XX.XXX.0.100 (NOTE: I have put the letter X for privacy sake. In reality. The X's represent real numbers). Which of the two is the router? | 02:07 |
| astro76 | chamunks: the screen session stays running on the server, you can reattach to it locally or by ssh'ing to the machine | 02:07 |
| bod_ | sthistle, ok, how do i check what my isp is and what its set to in thunderbird? | 02:07 |

| chamunks | astro76, my apologies, and thanks allot! | 02:08 |
| cmlalex | yes | 02:08 |
| cmlalex | bloody, for what specifically? ive been on google for the past 2 days for this | 02:08 |
| bluebanana | cmlalex: thanks. how did you learn that? | 02:08 |
| sthistle | bod_: your isp would be whoever supplies your internet connection. | 02:08 |
| cmlalex | blue: just an educated guess. every linksys router is set to 192.168.1.1 by default | 02:08 |
| bod_ | sthistle, virginmedia | 02:09 |

| astro76 | rahduke: it is most likely /media/cdrom | 02:17 |
| rahduke | yea | 02:17 |

| tumblewee | it works fine with puppylinux | 02:20 |
| Mike | I can't quite figure out many commands in the terminal. | 02:20 |
| mouseboyx | twist, you have to sudo apt-get install wine | 02:20 |
| Wass| | bloody` : .. well.. i need at least to know whats needed for that | 02:20 |
| nickrud | !gutsysources | twist | 02:20 |
| ubotu | twist: 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). | 02:20 |
| sthistle | CaiLIC: Sounds like a bad cd then | 02:20 |

| Starnestommy | Mike: it's the password you use to log in | 02:21 |
| Mike | And how do I run a file in the terminal? | 02:21 |
| astro76 | !envy | twist | 02:21 |
| ubotu | twist: envy is an unsupported tool to install newer versions of binary video drivers than provided by the official repositories. Use at your own risk, and remember that the latest version is not necessarily the "best". See « /msg ubotu binarydriver » | 02:21 |
| nickrud | twist: you shouldn't use envy, but you don't have the main repo enabled. Do the steps above to get them all | 02:21 |
| sethk | Mike, it's your own password. If you have to figure it out you are in trouble | 02:21 |
| Mike | Starnestommy: It's not taking that password. | 02:21 |
| bloody` | mike: sudo passwd root it will ask for your user's pass | 02:21 |
| tumblewee | son of a monkey i don't think anyone hears me | 02:21 |

| ubotu | Mike: Using !sudo with single commands is preferable in most circumstances. However, if you really need a root shell, use « sudo -i » (other variants of this commands are redundant and/or potentially dangerous) | 02:23 |
| Tetracomm | Hi. | 02:23 |
| nickrud | Mike: sudo -i will give you a root terminal | 02:23 |

| luckyone | nickrud: I tried to ssh to the box | 02:44 |

| emma | Devourer gksudo is for opening GUIs with root powers (Get Bent IRSeek: You do not have permission to publish anything I write) | 02:45 |
| Karsyth | can anyone get steam games to launch under wine? | 02:45 |
| luckyone | nickrud: how do you boot into recovery mode | 02:45 |
| nickrud | Devourer: gksudo sets up your working environment a little differently, protecting your home configuration files. sudo doesn't | 02:45 |

| ypSami | Why would checkinstall fail when make install succeeds? | 03:04 |
| Azodon | in ubuntu 7.10 | 03:04 |
| flacom | geo_: if the gears move smooth... you have opengl configured.. if not... fix that first | 03:04 |
| orudie | zorin: :) | 03:04 |
| orudie | jester7: thanx gonna try that now, i'll let you know if it helped | 03:05 |
| geo_ | ok thanks | 03:05 |

| flacom | Azodon: if u need 'n' X sessions... I think is for the port number... example... 192.168.2.2:9001 is one session.. 192.168.2.2:9002 is another session... 192.168.2.2:9003 is the third session | 03:07 |
| SkinnYPuppY | Free NX seemed to be the best working VNC | 03:07 |
| joesoundguy | how can I browse cdrom? It always opens ://burn dialog | 03:07 |

| flacom | SkinnYPuppY: I don't know... thats would me usefull | 03:11 |
| bazhang | rahduke: no as that is not legal | 03:11 |
| darkcrab | when you uninstall something in linux, does it leave behind files like in OSX and windows? | 03:11 |
| rahduke | its a backup | 03:11 |
| SkinnYPuppY | Yeah it would... | 03:11 |
| bazhang | heh | 03:11 |
| nickrud | heh heh | 03:11 |

| bloody` | grezer: apt-get install ubuntu-dekstop | 03:12 |
| joesoundguy | bloody ls /mnt/cdrom returns nothing | 03:12 |
| darkcrab | *nods* | 03:12 |
| flacom | grezer34: u mean a different desktop enviroment? | 03:13 |
| grezer34 | ok I did that | 03:13 |
| nickrud | LuiCal: hm. It's odd that it's not automounting. A sec while my mind spins in place | 03:13 |

| darkcrab | in synaptic jonathan or startup? | 03:17 |
| Scunizi | joesoundguy, ls is like dir in windows... if you use it on /media/cdrom0 then make sure there is a cd in the driver. | 03:17 |
| Scunizi | *drive | 03:17 |
| chemical | i have a bad feeling about this | 03:17 |
| SkinnYPuppY | don't | 03:17 |
| l815 | anyone know how to configure my hard drive to run a bit cooler without degrading performance? | 03:17 |
| jonathan_ | dft, I was trying to make it so I have a different wallpaper on every side of my cube, and to do so, I had to turn off my desktop, but now I can't remember how to turn it back on. | 03:17 |

| Scunizi | jonathaN, startx | 03:18 |
| bloody` | ls /mnt/cdrom | 03:18 |
| SkinnYPuppY | chemical you are more likely to overwrite or loose something going iso route | 03:18 |
| gamegame | 7.10, onboard network card issues. bcm440x does not work. | 03:18 |
| Scunizi | jonathaN, then ctrl+alt+f7 | 03:18 |

| darkcrab | i downloaded the ubuntustudio theme cause I thought it looked cool int he picture, but its a lot darker than they make it look. | 03:18 |
| nickrud | Scunizi: practilcally no one uses startx in ubuntu, it's nearly pointless to mention it. Tell them to restart gdm | 03:19 |
| flacom | geo_: you need to re-start the X's | 03:19 |
| w00tsauce22 | where's a good place to get themes? | 03:19 |

| flacom | geo_: control + alt + backspace | 03:19 |
| Scunizi | nickrud, ok.. /etc/init.d/gdm restart.. right? | 03:19 |
| Ezra | darkcrab: that's usually the case with screenshots in linux. don't know why | 03:19 |

| astheo | ok | 03:21 |
| musashi | i had to boot an older install to fix something. just wondering, is there a way to tell if it's a 32 or 64 bit install? uname -r just says 2.6.22-14-generic | 03:21 |
| astheo | thanks | 03:21 |
| Ezra | jonathan: i mean, do you have root priveleges? | 03:22 |

| bloody` | who did the pastebin | 03:22 |
| bazhang | musashi: what does lsb_release -a say | 03:22 |

| bazhang | !yay | a1fa | 03:23 |
| Momerath616 | alfanick: Why not just grab a gutsy cd? | 03:23 |
| flacom | a1fa: you want to pass from debian to ubuntu?? without format? | 03:23 |
| ubotu | a1fa: Glad you made it! :-) | 03:23 |
| gamegame | it was yesterday under windows | 03:23 |
| Ezra | jonathan: check out what; see what blairkatu said | 03:23 |
| geo_ | what else to try? | 03:23 |
| a1fa | flacom: yes | 03:23 |
| SkinnYPuppY | geo_ what kind of vid card ? | 03:23 |
| joesoundguy | bloody changed discs and ls /mnt/cdrom yeilds nothing | 03:23 |
| flacom | a1fa: :S | 03:23 |
| a1fa | i've been using debian for 8 years | 03:23 |
| === pyrak_ is now known as pyrak | ||
| musashi | didn't think 4 lines was flooding | 03:23 |
| bloody` | downsay: i found your problem | 03:23 |
| a1fa | i can just dist-upgrade | 03:23 |
| billy | hello, my ndiswrapper driver for a wg111v3 usb wireless card is giving the error "IOCSIFMTU: Invalid argument" when i run dhcpclient... any ideas? | 03:23 |
| a1fa | but i dont want to do that if there is a cleaner way | 03:23 |
| geo_ | ati radeon xpress on board | 03:23 |
| Scunizi | joesoundguy, you might consider reseating the ide cable on the cdrom..unplug it then plug it back in. Make sure the machine is off ofcourse.. | 03:24 |
| oldmonkswill | hi, i got something strange going on, compiz is enabled, everything is working, except the animations even though they are enabled? | 03:24 |
| dft | musashi: did that help or were you just being sarcastic? | 03:24 |
| flacom | a1fa: Maybe is possible... but I think the structure of de ubuntu distro is tottaly different | 03:24 |
| SkinnYPuppY | I haven't done a radeon , someone else perhaps | 03:24 |
| nickrud | a1fa: from debian to ubuntu? It'll have some breakage, but I guess you could take the time to manually fix it. Probably much faster to just install it in a vm or another partition | 03:24 |
| flacom | geo_: what is the error now | 03:24 |
| a1fa | i dont have a cdrom | 03:24 |
| musashi | dft sorry. no it helped. didn't mean it to come off bad. | 03:24 |
| Scunizi | oldmonkswill, did you install compiz configuration settings manager? | 03:24 |
| gamegame | i've researched it under the forums, but the answers are all for it being a wireless card, which, to the best of my knowledge is not correct at all. | 03:24 |
| joesoundguy | Scunizi since the discs mount and they work on the windblows partition Im sure everything is mechanically ok | 03:24 |
| nickrud | !install | a1fa there are ways without a cdrom | 03:24 |

| jester7 | orudie: no problem...luckily i'd run into the same thing | 03:25 |
| geo_ | it says the same think the composite extension is not available | 03:25 |
| oldmonkswill | scunizi, yes i did, i enabled it from there, restarted x, but nothing | 03:25 |
| oldmonkswill | ezra, i already did that | 03:25 |
| joesoundguy | Scunizi cool | 03:25 |
| orudie | jester7: now, how would i make a user name and a password in pro ftpd ? | 03:26 |
| Scunizi | oldmonkswill, did you to to system/preferances/appearance/visual effects and crank it up there as well? | 03:26 |
| joesoundguy | Scunizi itś about the browse function in Gnome. It keeps sending me to the burn:/// instead of nautilus | 03:26 |
| chemical | i'm upgrading right now should i close the "XChat"? | 03:26 |
| oldmonkswill | scunizi, yes i did, i have the cube and everything else, just the animations don't seem to be working? | 03:26 |
| Downsay | Will I be capable of repartitioning my HDD after I upgrade to Gutsy, from Feisty? | 03:27 |
| BlairKatu | yes | 03:27 |
| Scunizi | joesoundguy, did you have any problems installing the system originally? if so you might reinstall.' | 03:27 |
| geo_ | it says the same think the composite extension is not available | 03:27 |
| BlairKatu | 03:27 | |
| Downsay | how do I go about repartitioning, or will it ask me if I want to? | 03:27 |
| bazhang | chemical: up to you | 03:27 |
| jester7 | orudie: you should be able to add existing users to the ftp group | 03:27 |
| BlairKatu | Downsay: it will ask | 03:27 |
| a1fa | !automate | 03:27 |
| joesoundguy | Scunizi no. Crap I don´t wanna do that ;-( | 03:27 |

| Scunizi | oldmonkswill, np | 03:28 |
| flacom | geo_: did you restarted the X ??? are u sure??? if you re-started the X you needed to login again | 03:28 |
| bazhang | chemical: at some point you need to reboot though | 03:28 |
| joesoundguy | Scunizi No....been with Ubuntu since Fiesty was released. | 03:28 |
| billy | hello, my ndiswrapper driver for a wg111v3 usb wireless card is giving the error "IOCSIFMTU: Invalid argument" when i run dhcpclient... any ideas? | 03:28 |
| Scunizi | joesoundguy, if you get to that point you might consider making /home a separate partition if you haven't already done so. | 03:28 |
| joesoundguy | Scunizi before that i was a mandrake then mandriva guy | 03:28 |
| Downsay | Jack_Sparrow, I don't know how to repartition my HDD, could you help me? I don't even have enough space on my HDD to upgrade to Gutsy | 03:28 |
| chemical | bazhang oops...! a problem occured | 03:28 |
| neosix | billy: try madwifi drivers | 03:29 |

| geo_ | flacom_: your knowledge is powerfull thanks one more time | 03:34 |
| Karsyth | what_if: am i supposed to see anything when i run chmod? or is it supposed to just go to a new line | 03:34 |
| neosix | billy: OK, do you sure you need dhcp | 03:34 |
| darkcrab | do you already have windows installed? and are you installing from the live CD? | 03:34 |
| neosix | billy: maybe you don;t need dhcp | 03:34 |
| billy | neosix, yes, i need dhcp | 03:34 |
| bloody` | karsyth: next line | 03:34 |
| what_if | Karsyth: most times in linux no output equals success. If you want feedback you must say so. | 03:34 |
| chemical | bazhang it doesn't timing out | 03:35 |
| l815 | what exactly does the "~" char do when using it with certain commands and directories? | 03:35 |
| neosix | billy: is the driver installed properly | 03:35 |
| billy | it's inside of an office network with no free ip ranges on the subnet | 03:35 |
| bloody` | l815: home | 03:35 |
| Downsay | darkcrab, how do I repartition? | 03:35 |
| neosix | billy: did you check that | 03:35 |
| Karsyth | what_if: so then its an exe now? and i just double click it or what | 03:35 |
| flacom | Downsay: gparted ? | 03:35 |
| billy | neosix, as far as i can tell | 03:35 |
| darkcrab | are you repartitioning or resizing? | 03:35 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Downsay, Sorry, had to make myself a couple notes... Let me see if I can find you a tutorial... | 03:35 |

| jester7 | orudie: i'd say since you felt comfortable with webmin, do it through there. the "users and groups" section, under System I believe, works very well for user administration | 03:35 |
| gamegame | 1815: the ~ is short hand for your home | 03:36 |

| Scunizi | Karsyth, or cd Desktop <enter> then ./filename.run | 03:39 |
| crshman | i am in the CLI right now, is there any utility to set everything back to a new install default? | 03:39 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Downsay, This looks like it might be the one I was looking for.. http://nishants.net/articles/ntfsresize.htm | 03:39 |
| neosix | billy: hmmm, I don't have router only a wireless card | 03:40 |

| what_if | Karsyth: YW :) | 03:40 |
| billy | neosix, well does your dhcp work with the same drivers? | 03:40 |
| Scunizi | Karsyth, did it try to install? works the same for the linux version of google earth. | 03:40 |
| bazhang | chemical: how long has this been running? like five minutes, right? | 03:40 |
| Karsyth | Scunizi: yeah im running the install now | 03:40 |
| chemical | bazhang yes | 03:40 |

| CheeseGardener | I'm having trouble installing from a .bin file. | 03:41 |
| chemical | bazhang what's the "b" plan if "a" fails | 03:41 |
| Jack_Sparrow | crshman, You can reset gnome settings but not the whole system | 03:41 |
| [dcr] | is the VMWare install supposed to be in ".exe" format? | 03:41 |
| Karsyth | what_if , Scunizi: if it says i dont have permission does that mean i gotta run it from root? | 03:41 |
| what_if | Karsyth: yes | 03:41 |
| Downsay | Jack_Sparrow, do I have to type sudo before each of those commands once back in Linux? | 03:41 |
| Scunizi | Karsyth, yes.. just put sudo in front of the command | 03:41 |
| bazhang | chemical you can do what you wish but letting it time out is the best option; forcing it quit now could lead to problems | 03:41 |
| chemical | bazhang partial upgrade? | 03:41 |
| billy | neosix, i see, thanks for the help anyway | 03:41 |
| Downsay | Jack_Sparrow, also, I am having problems getting it to allow me to boot via cd even after I changed the bios to have cd as first priority | 03:42 |
| neosix | billy: OK no problem | 03:42 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Downsay, SOme will, but it will be obvious | 03:42 |
| chemical | bazhang i thing it restores back | 03:42 |
| Downsay | Jack_Sparrow, I don't think it will be obvious, I am a complete newb to linux, lol | 03:42 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Downsay, MAy I suggest you get the gparted live cd and use it.. | 03:42 |

| Jack_Sparrow | Karsyt1, Did you check the appdb to see if what you wanted to run was supported? | 03:58 |
| Scunizi | chipsa964, could be the mic is just muted.. right click the speaker icon up by the clock/date and choose open volumn control.. paw around in there and see if you can flip any switches. | 03:58 |
| Karsyt1 | Jack_Sparrow: no, where can i see that? | 03:58 |

| bod_ | neosix, will virtualbox play it,.,. likely or not? | 03:59 |

| jrib | mattg08: try xnee or xmacro maybe | 03:59 |
| neosix | bod_: I realy don't know I never used vb too | 03:59 |
| chipsa964 | Scunizi, it only has a playback tab, no record tab or anything | 03:59 |
| Karsyt1 | every game was testet with 7.10... so i should probably upgrade overnight? | 03:59 |
| bod_ | neosix, ok ty,. is there a virtualbox channel? | 04:00 |
| namegame | copy the contents of both CDs into a folder and try installing it from there...I installed WoW with the expansion (10 CDs) this way | 04:00 |

| donspaulding | bod_: yeah, like I said, the support for big companies was ok. It's the little guy that MS pokes in the bunghole. | 04:35 |
| Kalamansi | nickrud : is it okay to use 7.10 server ubuntu? | 04:35 |
| LimCore | no0tic: I will ask if I need more help.. .beeing a c++ developer I hope to resolve the problem. but I would like to have this buggy application fixed or kicked, for the good of other users who may lost emails irreverisably | 04:35 |
| bod_ | bod likes amarok | 04:35 |
| catmistake | dsmith_: yeah, I wanna local mirror, 4 myself | 04:35 |
| LimCore | Hobbsee: really? cool I can bash #kde then | 04:35 |
| Hobbsee | LimCore: so, find a backtrace, and send it to bugs.kde.org. you can do nothing here. | 04:35 |
| Hobbsee | LimCore: sure, but do it usefully. | 04:35 |
| nickrud | Kalamansi: many do. If I were running a really important one, I'd use 6.06 | 04:35 |
| bod_ | LimCore, why dont 'You' fix it then give it to the developers to put in hardy asap? | 04:35 |
| what_if | how do I make it so when I click on a bash script in kde it opens in an editor and does not run ?? | 04:35 |
| === credible_ is now known as credible | ||
| LimCore | Hobbsee: no back trace in this time, but I will save state of my stupid box | 04:36 |
| swatTX | hi all. Is there any way to get around having to enter the username/password when i access a network share. How come the 'Remember this password forever"doesn't work? | 04:36 |
| TheMidnightRider | Anyone know of a good general purpose IDE for web technologies? (Python, PHP, Ruby, etc...) | 04:36 |
| dsmith_ | catmistake: httrack | 04:36 |
| LimCore | bod_: perhaps in free time | 04:36 |
| bod_ | what_if, right click --> properties --> open with tab --> choose default prog | 04:36 |
| donspaulding | TheMidnightRider: Komodo Edit http://openkomodo.com | 04:36 |
| Draco | TheMidnightRider: I personally use kdevelop, works fine unless you really must use GTK and the likes | 04:36 |
| dft | TheMidnightRider: bluefish | 04:36 |
| Hobbsee | LimCore: calm down, get it to reproduce, and grab the backtrace then. | 04:36 |
| catmistake | dsmith_: downthemall just downloads individual pages/ links on a page... OOO, checking. thx | 04:36 |
| LimCore | bod_: but if rest of the team sucks one small patch will not fix | 04:36 |
| darkzero | hey all | 04:36 |
| bod_ | LimCore, you no, in the spirit of giveing back to the community and all that | 04:36 |
| dsmith_ | HTTrack: It allows you to download a World Wide Web site from the Internet to a local directory, building recursively all directories, getting HTML, images, and other files from the server to your computer. | 04:36 |
| vALIEN | LimCore : rewrite thatass | 04:36 |
| LimCore | Hobbsee: in this case there was no crash, simply the email started to not show up, with no reason | 04:36 |
| bod_ | LimCore, then send it to the kmail developers not the bug team | 04:37 |
| keithclark | anyone else on how to install multiple cds on wine? | 04:37 |
| darkzero | Anyone here know howto use a keyboard shortcut to open and close optical drive? | 04:37 |
| dsmith_ | catmistake: I only used that program a few times before | 04:37 |
| Hobbsee | LimCore: and do you really expect others to be able to reproduce it with that little amount of info? | 04:37 |
| bod_ | keith80403, can you elaborate please | 04:37 |
| Hobbsee | "works for me" --> close bug. | 04:37 |
| bod_ | ;~)_ | 04:37 |
| LimCore | Hobbsee: it lost around 5 emails this 2 weeks, apparently it is a common bug | 04:37 |
| vALIEN | 4:20 | 04:37 |
| Hobbsee | LimCore: so, fix it. | 04:37 |
| dsmith_ | just 5 emails? | 04:37 |
| donspaulding | TheMidnightRider: if you want tab completion, Komodo is the only way to go. | 04:37 |
| nickrud | Hobbsee: for your text replace: Works for Me™ | 04:38 |
| Hobbsee | or don't use kmail | 04:38 |
| Hobbsee | nickrud: ah, thanks | 04:38 |
| * bod_ thinks LimCore is just lazy | 04:38 | |
| darkzero | hmm guess not | 04:38 |
| chuy_max | hi, when will hardy heron become beta software? (it is alpha now, and it goes stable in april, so no beta?) | 04:38 |
| dsmith_ | LimCore: complain about kmail on #kubuntu | 04:38 |
| LimCore | I'm fixing it | 04:38 |
| * bazhang agrees with bod_ | 04:38 | |
| LimCore | well, debugging | 04:38 |
| prince_jammys | not even | 04:38 |
| prince_jammys | there is no "complain" channel | 04:39 |
| dsmith_ | lol | 04:39 |
| LimCore | bazhang: Im fixing someones stupid bug already | 04:39 |
| catmistake | dsmith_: httrack fits the bill, thanks | 04:39 |
| bod_ | LimCore, cool, can you add a music player, and a web browser, and a document viewer while your at it | 04:39 |
| dsmith_ | np :) | 04:39 |
| Draco | donspaulding: quanta+ has tab completion, I'd assume kdevelop would too | 04:39 |
| eatatjoes2 | cabrioleur: it says to set USB as boot device in BIOS (my bios only has 3 options.... HD/network/cd | 04:39 |
| dsmith_ | #kubuntu-complaints, really means /dev/null | 04:39 |
| LimCore | bod_: bugfree email client is really enouf :) | 04:39 |
| donspaulding | Draco: I include code intelligence when I say "tab completion" | 04:40 |
| d_ebc | Does anyone know where the "alternat/text installer" is on the website? I am unable to find it. | 04:40 |
| bazhang | got to go, back later | 04:40 |
| nickrud | d_ebc: releases.ubuntu.com/7.10 | 04:40 |
| bod_ | LimCore, but im explaining what people expect of you, know your a kubuntu developer | 04:40 |
| cabrioleur | eatatjoes2, invest in lilo then, and you will have to alter the hd a little bit. | 04:40 |
| TheMidnightRider | Like Intelllisense from M$ | 04:40 |
| dsmith_ | when did ubuntu 4 come out? | 04:40 |
| donspaulding | Draco: in a strong, dynamically typed language, it's really hard to find an IDE that will give me the methods on a string variable automatically | 04:40 |
| cabrioleur | eatatjoes2, sorry, not hd. kernel. | 04:40 |
| Bax | i was playing a game on a low resolution and it just crashed to my desktop, which now appears on that same resolution. How do I change the resolution back to normal? | 04:40 |
| * bod_ gives cookie to bazhang for agreeing with him | 04:40 | |
| ka2 | dsmith_: 4.10 ? | 04:40 |
| chequers | hi all, I have a dell vostro which has integrated video card on the mobo. I have an NVidia 8400GS installed (which windows uses fine), but when I'm trying to boot ubuntu it only outputs video to the onboard adaptor. how can I change this? | 04:40 |
| dsmith_ | yes | 04:40 |
| ka2 | dsmith_: in october 2004 | 04:40 |
| ka2 | dsmith_: 10/04 | 04:41 |
| dsmith_ | hmm so almost 4 years | 04:41 |
| donspaulding | Draco: Komodo rocks the socks for crap like that | 04:41 |
| ka2 | dsmith_: year.month | 04:41 |
| TheMidnightRider | Downloading Komodo now... | 04:41 |
| * dsmith_ imagins what the next 4 years will rbing | 04:41 | |
| dsmith_ | !komodo | 04:41 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about komodo - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 04:41 |
| poningru | chequers: reboot with the outside monitor plugged in | 04:41 |
| TheMidnightRider | we'll see what's up here in a sec...... do you install from source don? | 04:41 |
| cabrioleur | Bax, log out and log in, or go to system->preferences->screen resolution | 04:41 |
| dsmith_ | ahh dev tools | 04:42 |
| catmistake | this is whack... apt-get won't let me install while firefox is downloading... says... unable to unlock the administration directory | 04:42 |
| Draco | donspaulding: netbeans seems best for ruby tab completion | 04:42 |
| chequers | poningru: you mean after I install with the monitor plugged into the onboard I can then reboot with it plugged into the card? | 04:42 |
| chequers | catmistake: that means another apt-get is running, it's not about firefox | 04:42 |
| poningru | catmistake: its probably just downloading in the background | 04:42 |
| vALIEN | hey i'd like some pros and cons of Gnome and KDE please | 04:42 |
| Draco | donspaulding: it's very hard to implement complete properly in reflective languages | 04:42 |
| eatatjoes2 | cabrioleur: also following that tutorial it says umount /dev/sdx1 when i do that for mine which is sdb6 it says 'command not found' | 04:42 |
| chequers | catmistake: try this command in terminal: ps auwx | grep "apt" | 04:42 |
| poningru | you should have it disable download in the background | 04:42 |

| eatatjoes2 | bash: unmount: command not found | 04:43 |
| Draco | vALIEN: kde requires a bit more memory, but gnome and xfce really come close | 04:44 |
| dsmith_ | there was my biased response | 04:44 |
| vALIEN | I like gnome, because. | 04:44 |
| cabrioleur | eatatjoes2, not unmount, but umount | 04:44 |
| namegame | it's umount eatjoes... | 04:44 |
| vALIEN | but i'd like to hear others opinions | 04:44 |
| poningru | chequers: wait what isnt working? your laptop screen or an outside screen? | 04:44 |
| dsmith_ | kde is close to windows GUI | 04:44 |
| vALIEN | I really just cant get into KDE, its always been "slow" for me. | 04:44 |
| eatatjoes2 | cabrioleur: sorry im retarded | 04:44 |
| dsmith_ | gnome is different | 04:44 |
| mix_cute | hy | 04:44 |
| cabrioleur | eatatjoes2, happens to the best (yea, right) | 04:44 |

| dsmith_ | kde does require a heavier machine | 04:44 |
| dsmith_ | lol | 04:44 |
| bod_ | !ot | vALIEN not ubuntu support related | 04:44 |
| ubotu | vALIEN not ubuntu support related: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! | 04:44 |
| Draco | vALIEN: kde was really fast on this new system with 128MB and P3 I think | 04:44 |
| poningru | chequers: you can install using graphical safe option and then turn on nvidia driver using system->admin->hardware driver | 04:45 |
| chequers | poningru: it's a destop with integrated gfx card. There's also a PCIE graphics card in it | 04:45 |
| murlidhar | how do i smoothen fonts in firefox ???? i am using a lcd monitor | 04:45 |
| bod_ | !lol | dsmith_ | 04:45 |
| ubotu | dsmith_: Please don't use "LOL" and "OMG" and so forth on a regular basis. This is IRC, not IM, and using those lines on their own is not required, and it is rather annoying to the rest of the people in the channel; thanks. | 04:45 |
| vALIEN | sorry :) | 04:45 |
| poningru | chequers: oh! | 04:45 |
| darkcrab | like, when I insert my burned CD's in ubuntu, it reads them, but the tracts are like track 1, do you all know what I have to download to get it to read the track names? | 04:45 |
| catmistake | oops... had adept open | 04:45 |
| cinvoke | I am a newb, how do you open port 22? please help. | 04:45 |
| poningru | sorry describe the trouble again then | 04:45 |
| bod_ | murlidhar, theres a tuto on ubuntu forums, in the tutorial of the week section | 04:45 |
| chequers | poningru: what happens is that the bios boots up and shows the video on the GPU VGA output, but ubuntu outputs video to the onboard VGA output only | 04:45 |
| jrib | cinvoke: it isn't closed unless you closed it | 04:45 |
| Draco | vALIEN: i.e. not a new system. but trying to start firefox or such like that takes forever (though I hear FF is a memory pig anyway) | 04:45 |
| murlidhar | thanks bod_ | 04:45 |
| catmistake | thar she goes... | 04:45 |
| donspaulding | Draco: not used Komodo for Ruby (don't a lot of folks use RadRails?), PHP/Python/Perl was what Komodo was developed for, although it also does good with static languages like HTML/JS/CSS | 04:45 |
| dsmith_ | I can use ff fine | 04:45 |
| vALIEN | Draco: whats FF? | 04:45 |
| poningru | chequers: hmm that is weird... because that is controlled by the bios | 04:45 |
| poningru | not the OS | 04:46 |
| vALIEN | oh feisty fawn | 04:46 |
| dsmith_ | actually firefox uses Fx | 04:46 |
| Draco | vALIEN: firefox, used that because I mentioned it in the same sentence | 04:46 |
| vALIEN | oh | 04:46 |
| poningru | chequers: but it works under windows? | 04:46 |
| Starnestommy | FF usually frfers to firefox | 04:46 |
| vALIEN | yeah :P | 04:46 |
| chequers | poningru: the only option in the BIOS relates to the first device initialised (eg, for POST output), and that's set to PCIEx (instead of PCI, which is the onboard) | 04:46 |
| bod_ | murlidhar, no prob ;~) | 04:46 |
| chequers | poningru: yes | 04:46 |
| cinvoke | I don't think I have a firewall, and I didn't close port 22. I don't think | 04:46 |
| dsmith_ | vALIEN: download the iso's and try them out | 04:46 |
| vALIEN | what iso's | 04:47 |
| chequers | I will try to install it via onboard video and swap over after | 04:47 |
| cinvoke | is there any way to check and make sure? | 04:47 |
| dsmith_ | live CD's | 04:47 |
| vALIEN | of what | 04:47 |
| dsmith_ | of ubuntu | 04:47 |
| vALIEN | KDE and GNOME?.... | 04:47 |
| poningru | chequers: sorry dude no clue | 04:47 |
| vALIEN | im on ubuntu | 04:47 |
| Frogzoo | cinvoke: google 'shields up' | 04:47 |
| bod_ | vALIEN, perhaps you would be interested in this channel #ubuntu-classroom | 04:47 |
| poningru | cinvoke: why do you need ssh port open? | 04:47 |
| Draco | donspaulding: I really only use complete for Java because of it's horribly verbose syntax | 04:47 |
| poningru | do you have ssh running? | 04:47 |
| vALIEN | thanks bod | 04:47 |
| jrib | cinvoke: sudo iptables -L will list your iptables rules | 04:47 |
| chequers | poningru: no problem, talking to you at least gave me an idea of what to try ;) | 04:47 |
| prince_jammys | vALIEN: you can install kubuntu-desktop and not lose gnome. then you can uninstall it if you don't like it | 04:47 |
| vALIEN | I just saw that there is 1200 users in this channel and wanted some opinion | 04:48 |
| bod_ | vALIEN, no probs ;~) | 04:48 |
| Draco | donspaulding: I've a data structures prof that says we should use stuff like that, and who's never seen C-style inheritance | 04:48 |
| donspaulding | vALIEN: be forewarned, the uninstall of kubuntu-desktop leaves much to be desired | 04:48 |
| bod_ | vALIEN, sorry, were tech support #ubuntu-offtopic might help you | 04:48 |
| vALIEN | So running KDE environment from sessions is NOT KDE? | 04:48 |
| donspaulding | (or at least it used to) | 04:48 |
| Kalandros | I have a question for anyone willing to answer: Linux 32-bit v. Linux 64-bit? | 04:48 |
| Draco | donspaulding: I.e. "how the hell can you expect to access the variable inside just by casting" | 04:49 |
| bod_ | Kalandros, depends if you have a 64 bit machine really | 04:49 |
| Kalandros | I do. | 04:49 |
| fausto_vaz | hey guys, you know some channel where i can get information about c language? | 04:49 |
| Kalandros | I have the newest Intel. | 04:49 |
| poningru | Kalandros: what is this install for? if its for desktop and if you care about things like flash etc. | 04:49 |
| Cpudan80 | fausto_vaz: ##C | 04:49 |
| poningru | you might not want 64bit | 04:49 |
| prince_jammys | vALIEN: if you have kubuntu installed, then KDE appears in your session menu and you would be running KDE | 04:49 |
| fausto_vaz | thanks man | 04:49 |
| cinvoke | what am I looking for in the iptables rules? | 04:49 |
| poningru | cinvoke: first answer that question why do you want that port open? | 04:49 |
| poningru | do you have ssh installed? | 04:50 |
| Kalandros | poningru: Well, I am just wondering if I want to use it to make use of my RAM. | 04:50 |
| Cpudan80 | Yeah | 04:50 |
| bod_ | Kalandros, do you have more then 2 gig of ram,. because i believe 32bit can only handle 2 gig max | 04:50 |
| Draco | fausto_vaz: yeah. if you need examples of data structures and such ruby (the C code behind it) is really cool | 04:50 |
| Cpudan80 | I wouldn't advise installing kubuntu-desktop | 04:50 |
| ka2 | 4 gig | 04:50 |
| poningru | bod_: not it can handle 4 gig | 04:50 |
| Cpudan80 | The uninstall doesnt work right | 04:50 |
| bod_ | Cpudan80, why? | 04:50 |
| cinvoke | I am setting up ssl connection with a web server that is using ssl to transmit a file | 04:50 |
| Cpudan80 | The uninstall fails | 04:50 |
| Kalandros | bod_: It's reading 3.2 Gigs of RAM. | 04:50 |
| poningru | even then it can use more using extension | 04:50 |
| murlidhar | bod_: i can't find the topic in the tutorial of the week section. | 04:50 |
| bod_ | poningru, really,. and 64bit? | 04:50 |
| Cpudan80 | It doesnt remove all the packages | 04:50 |
| Kalandros | 32 bit systems can read up to 3.5 RAM. | 04:50 |
| bod_ | murlidhar, gimme a sec, il find the link | 04:50 |
| poningru | bod_: uh... its like in terrabytes | 04:50 |
| Cpudan80 | KDE sucks anyway | 04:50 |

| * chequers sets Cpudan80 on fire | 04:51 | |
| prince_jammys | desktop war!! | 04:51 |
| poningru | yeah something like that | 04:51 |
| Cpudan80 | I just prefer gnome | 04:51 |
| bod_ | murlidhar, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=4456 | 04:51 |
| Kalandros | poningru: Exabyte, sorry. | 04:51 |
| Draco | Cpudan80: unfortunately.. GNOME sucks, Windows sucks, OSX sucks, XFCE sucks | 04:51 |
| astheo | Kalandros: you might not want 64 bit coz there are some apps/functionalities not yet optimized for 64 bit | 04:51 |
| bod_ | poningru, if only i could afford that much ram ;~) | 04:51 |
| Cpudan80 | At least ubuntu lets you choose, and works well with either env | 04:51 |
| astheo | as far as i know :) | 04:51 |
| === slaytani1 is now known as slaytanic | ||
| Kalandros | astheo: Well, I knew there were one with Windows, I didn't know if it was the same with Linux. | 04:51 |
| poningru | cinvoke: that means you are giving that website full control to your computer | 04:51 |
| Cpudan80 | SuSE for example, relies on KDE backends -- and doesnt work so well with gnome | 04:52 |
| * LinuxMonkey slaps Cpudan80 with a K, Than a D, .....hrmmm...KD....time for food I give up | 04:52 | |
| Draco | Cpudan80: and CLI sucks, as well. The only non-suck would be AI | 04:52 |
| keithclark | bod_ Yes, I cannot change discs when trying to install a two disc game, sim city 4, under wine. | 04:52 |
| Kalandros | bod_: The most feasible amount of RAM you can have in a computer now is barely 8GB. Anything higher and you will be paying about $1,000 a chip. A 4GB chip is upwards of 900 dollars. | 04:52 |
| murlidhar | bod_: thanks a lot | 04:52 |
| === lipsinOffline is now known as lipsin | ||
| bod_ | keith80403, er, the latest wine can, and so can cedega,,.,. #winehq could help more | 04:52 |
| astheo | Kalandros: now you know there are indeed | 04:52 |
| Draco | keithclark: I personally rip the disk image first, but it still requires being able to unmount it | 04:52 |
| swatTX_ | how come i have to enter the username and password everytime i access a networked pc or drive? | 04:52 |
| darkcrab | q: normally my burned CDs show up with their track names if I stick in the CD on OSX or windows, but on Linux they show up as Track 1 or Track 2, any idea why? | 04:52 |
| AntiUSA | dammit, can someone help me with getting FreeSpace 2 Open to intall? it's a .JAR and I don't know how to install it? | 04:53 |
| bod_ | Kalamansi, no its not, i can get 4gig of ram for under £100 | 04:53 |
| chequers | darkcrab: probably you need to configure the applicated to download the tracks from the web | 04:53 |
| dthacker | swatTX: because their authentication rules are set up that way? | 04:53 |
| Kalandros | astheo: It was just interesting to know, I knew the issues. But I believed Linux to be better, as usual. xDDD I jus thave 4 GIgs of RAM, and you know the temptation of using it all... | 04:53 |
| Kalamansi | bod_: what? | 04:53 |
| darkcrab | ah thanks | 04:53 |
| bod_ | murlidhar, no probs,.,. my fonts look lush thanks to thet tuto | 04:53 |

| cinvoke | it is just opening an ssl connection and sending the file and then closes the connection | 04:53 |
| keithclark | bod_ I'm using the latest | 04:53 |
| chequers | darkcrab: sorry, my first line meant 'download the track *names* from the web | 04:53 |

| luckyone | new graphics card is working, can anyone help point out dual head | 04:54 |
| bod_ | Kalamansi, sorry wrong guy | 04:54 |
| swatTX_ | dthacker: so is that a setting i have to change on the other pc or the ubuntu box? | 04:54 |
| bod_ | Kalandros, no its not, i can get 4gig of ram for under £100 | 04:54 |
| cinvoke | the ssl server will handle the rest, i just need to open the port | 04:54 |
| luckyone | multiple monitor under 7.10? | 04:54 |
| Kalandros | bod_: 4GB chips, not two 2GB chips. | 04:54 |
| bod_ | Kalamansi, yer | 04:55 |
| Kalandros | bod_: Single, 4GB chips. | 04:55 |
| dthacker | swatTX: I think it's likely the other box. | 04:55 |
| bod_ | no damn | 04:55 |
| bod_ | Kalamansi, sorry | 04:55 |
| bod_ | Kalandros, yer easy | 04:55 |
| astheo | Kalandros: well its up to you to decide. its not my machine anyway..:) but whats the use of using it all when you can't capitalize it on some other functinalities | 04:55 |
| luckyone | anyone know how to do dual monitor setup for nvidia? | 04:55 |
| LinuxMonkey | bod_: their talking 1 stick not 2.lol | 04:55 |
| AntiUSA | ahhh I'm sorry, it wasn't a shot at you guys | 04:55 |
| bod_ | LinuxMonkey, im well aware | 04:55 |
| AntiUSA | you guys are awesome | 04:55 |
| AntiUSA | I'm just frustrated with trying to use a stupid Java installer | 04:55 |
| LinuxMonkey | bod_: yeah im slow typing its very late here.lol | 04:55 |
| Kalandros | bod_: Oh, excuse me. The prices have come down...I'm looking at them now. Still not feasible, but they've dropped considerably. | 04:56 |
| dthacker | !repeat | luckyone | 04:56 |
| ubotu | luckyone: 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 | 04:56 |
| bod_ | LinuxMonkey, its 5 in the mornig here | 04:56 |
| darkcrab | hmm...is there a better extracter for linux than sound juicer? | 04:56 |
| keithclark | I give up. There appears to be no way to install a two disc Sim City 4 game in Wine. I've tried the copy to hard drive and the Wine Eject command. | 04:56 |
| luckyone | dthacker: sorry | 04:56 |
| luckyone | dthacker: thought I was squelched or something... | 04:56 |
| dthacker | luckyone: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=221174 would be a place to start | 04:56 |
| cinvoke | does anybody know how to open port 22 | 04:56 |
| chequers | AntiUSA: for a game, I'd suggest reading the documentation if it exists, or trying to find an irc channel for the game | 04:56 |
| bod_ | Kalandros, yer, its now alot cheaper then 2 years ago | 04:56 |
| darkcrab | there has to be a way keith | 04:56 |
| Kalandros | Dude...The HP 4GB chip that is $938.87 is backordered. xDDDD | 04:56 |
| AntiUSA | ok, thanks | 04:57 |
| keithclark | I've googled to death and none of the instructions work as written. | 04:57 |
| prince_jammys | AntiUSA: you have java installed? | 04:57 |
| Kalandros | bod_: In all honestly, I just checked a couple of months ago. I guess I was looking at brand name, the stuff I've never even heard of is the cheap ones. | 04:57 |
| dthacker | keithclark: have you tried the #winehq channel? | 04:57 |
| dclarke | I am in the process of installing 7.10 on an AMD64 machine and it looks like a total copy of debian thus far. Is ubuntu a copy of debian ?? | 04:57 |
| AntiUSA | I have not installed it prince jammys... unless it comes with Ubuntu | 04:57 |
| cinvoke | Do I need to remove blackice? | 04:58 |
| bod_ | Kalandros, yer, the small branch retailers have the cheapest stuff most of the time,.,. unkown so you pay for the product not the friggin logo | 04:58 |
| Cpudan80 | Its based off debian dclarke | 04:58 |
| Motorsport3 | hey everyone, my volume control buttons on my laptop control the microphone, and not the master volume. What's going on | 04:58 |
| PiousMinion | What determines which options are used to automount a filesystem when a usb drive is plugged in? There is no fstab entry to edit so I'm stumped. | 04:58 |
| dclarke | okay .. had to be | 04:58 |
| prince_jammys | AntiUSA: i think you need to install it | 04:58 |
| Cpudan80 | The text based installs are very similar dclarke | 04:58 |
| prince_jammys | !java | AntiUSA | 04:58 |
| ubotu | AntiUSA: 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) | 04:58 |
| darkcrab | ubuntu is basically a debian install yes | 04:58 |
| dclarke | sort of like CentOS is exactly like Red Hat Ent Linux | 04:58 |
| LimCore | no0tic: the email file is actually gone. | 04:58 |
| Motorsport3 | bingo | 04:58 |
| dclarke | what is the differentiator | 04:58 |
| prince_jammys | AntiUSA: also see if there's anything useful here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=640312 | 04:58 |

| PiousMinion | dclarke: stability. :) | 04:59 |
| dclarke | debian is pretty stable | 04:59 |

| === osxdude|laptop is now known as osxdude | ||
| AntiUSA | thanks guys | 04:59 |
| darkcrab | ive tried just about ever distro and ubuntu is definitely my favorite | 04:59 |
| dthacker | keithclark: There are some hints in this thread, but you have to read a bit. http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-88495.html | 04:59 |
| dclarke | what about Fedora ? | 04:59 |
| dclarke | or Solaris ? | 04:59 |
| kupesoft | darkcrab: I've tried every spelling of the word favourite, and favourite is mine | 04:59 |
| darkcrab | fedora has gotten better over the years. | 04:59 |
| Kalandros | bod_: Still, what would you do if you had enough money and decided to fill your 4 DIMM slots with 4GB chips? Have 16GB of RAM and only use 3.5 GB of it, unless you shoot for 64-bit. xDDDD | 04:59 |
| astheo | darkcrab: same here. ubuntu is very stable | 04:59 |
| darkcrab | hehe kupe | 04:59 |
| bod_ | Kalandros, im using 64 now haha ;~) | 05:00 |
| kupesoft | darkcrab: (: | 05:00 |
| AntiUSA | you guys rock, let's see if this works | 05:00 |
| keithclark | dthacker, I will check it out. Yes, I tried winehq channel but no response at all. | 05:00 |
| Odd-rationale | I'm one of the few archers who defected back to ubuntu. (nothing wrong with arch I really liked it! I don't why I am back...) | 05:00 |
| Downsay | I need some pretty big help...I'm a complete newb | 05:00 |
| darkcrab | of course, ubuntu is better now than it has ever been. | 05:00 |
| Downsay | I need to repartition my hdd | 05:00 |
| dclarke | okay .. based on what I see thus far .. debian is ubunto is debian and Solaris is entirely something else | 05:00 |
| Draco | astheo: ubuntu has quirks like sudo refusing to work based on the time of day - LITERALLY | 05:00 |
| Downsay | I downloaded the gparted livecd | 05:00 |
| Downsay | and it won't load when I reboot comp | 05:01 |
| garrwood | I have hardy (64b) upgrd from 7.10 (64b) Nautilus will not load. I get an error that libbeagle is missing. i see it has been replaced with libbeagle1 but Nautilus is still asking for it. Pls help! | 05:01 |
| Downsay | even after changing the bios settings | 05:01 |
| === credible_ is now known as credible | ||
| Kalandros | bod_: The 64-bit can accept up to 2 exabytes, or 18,446,744,073,709,551,616 bytes. xDDDDDD | 05:01 |
| darkcrab | solaris is mostly for people who want to run a server or workstation. | 05:01 |
| Odd-rationale | Downsay: Did you try reburning? | 05:01 |
| Draco | astheo: it's still easy to fix because Ubuntu has the recovery thing | 05:01 |
| Downsay | yes, I've reburned 3x | 05:01 |
| dthacker | Downsay: can you use gparted from the Ubuntu Live CD? | 05:01 |
| prince_jammys | Downsay: put your whole question in one line, it's easier for everyone | 05:01 |
| Downsay | no, I can't load from live cd | 05:01 |
| keithclark | dthacker, nothing in your link either that works. | 05:01 |
| dthacker | Downsay: try another CD-Rom | 05:01 |
| Kaneda15 | so.. who would be able to tell me how i would go about installing the new nvidia vid card drivers? (not the one that is in the restricted drives manager on installation) | 05:01 |
| bod_ | Kalandros, yer, i got one of those for christmas ;~) | 05:02 |
| astheo | Draco: all distros have its own quirks. but unbutu has the least.. | 05:02 |
| Kaneda15 | drivers^ | 05:02 |
| prince_jammys | Downsay: you've been able to boot other CDs, right? such as the ubuntu live CD | 05:02 |
| dclarke | darkcrab: solaris is mostly for people who want to run a server or workstation ?? isn't that .. everybody ? | 05:02 |
| Downsay | I need to be able to repartition my HDD, I've tried 3 cd-roms, it will not read from a cd (not sure if this is because I already dual boot in windows and ubuntu) | 05:02 |
| Motorsport3 | garrwood: I think you should ask in #ubuntu+1 | 05:02 |
| Kalandros | bod_: What? Makes no sense... | 05:02 |
| Downsay | prince_jammys, no, I cannot | 05:02 |
| darkcrab | I have two computers, both for school. | 05:02 |
| darkcrab | dont really need a workstation. | 05:02 |
| dthacker | keithclark: sorry to hear that. You'll have to wait for more activity in #winehq, post to the forums, or ask the question on launchpad. | 05:02 |
| garrwood | new to the irc thing, how do i get there? | 05:02 |
| bod_ | Kalandros, i got a 2 exabyte ram stick for xmas last year,.,. ur way behind -- lol | 05:03 |
| prince_jammys | Downsay: have you looked at your bios settings to make sure you have it set to "boot from cd" ? | 05:03 |
| keithclark | dthacker.....no worries, I still have one XP machine left | 05:03 |
| Downsay | prince_jammys, I've already adjusted bios settings to make for priority to read cd, it won't do it still, it skips and goes straight to which operating system would I like to start, ubuntu or windows | 05:03 |
| Motorsport3 | garwood: type /join #ubuntu+1 | 05:03 |
| prince_jammys | Downsay: i see | 05:03 |
| garrwood | thanks | 05:03 |
| Kalandros | bod_: u.u We'd be lucky if they made any HDD, even in an array, close to an Exabyte. | 05:03 |
| dclarke | this is too noisey .. oh well .. thanks and buh bye | 05:03 |
| jescis | hello, I'm trying to run bed. A binary editor for linux, and I get this error: "error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" | 05:03 |
| Downsay | prince_jammys, my linux is so full I cannot download any upgrades and I'm not sure how to make any additional room | 05:03 |
| dthacker | Downsay: do you have a different CD-ROM you can put in the machine? If so, I would try that. In my experience, LiveCD's that won't load are almost always hardware. | 05:04 |
| darkcrab | i just put ubuntu on my laptop because I got tired of windows, i was spending more time being annoyed by it than actually doing my work.. | 05:04 |
| Downsay | dthacker, no I do not | 05:04 |
| bod_ | Kalandros, id be lucky if i can afford a terabyte drive let alone an exabyte ram stick | 05:04 |
| prince_jammys | Downsay: just to clarify, you say you can't boot from ANY kind of live CD, or only from gparted? | 05:04 |
| Downsay | prince_jammys, I cannot boot from any type of cd | 05:04 |
| AntiUSA | IT WORKED! | 05:04 |
| AntiUSA | thanks prince jammys! | 05:04 |
| Chipsa964 | sorry to bother you all again, but i still cant get my internal mic to work after trying some suggestions...anyone have any ideas?? | 05:04 |
| darkcrab | yay | 05:04 |
| prince_jammys | AntiUSA: congratulations | 05:04 |
| Grifte1 | Hi, I'm having intermittent working audio issues | 05:04 |
| dthacker | jescis: you will need to find the package that provides that library and install it. | 05:04 |
| jescis | hhmm | 05:05 |
| darkcrab | tons of people seem to be having audio issues with 7.10 | 05:05 |
| Kalandros | bod_: Dude...I'd want an Exabyte HDD. | 05:05 |
| Odd-rationale | darkcrab: And after you install ubuntu, you probably spend more time tweaking it... :) | 05:05 |
| prince_jammys | Downsay: strange | 05:05 |
| darkcrab | lol odd | 05:05 |
| Kalandros | bod_: I'd never ever need a new HDD again. xDDDDDDDD | 05:05 |
| Downsay | prince_jammys, is there any way I can make another 600mb of room on linux OS so I can upgrade to 7.10? | 05:05 |
| Grifte1 | darkcrab: yeah, that's the version I'm running | 05:05 |
| keithclark | dthacker, this appears to be one of those programs that just does not work, unless you are on a dual boot machine | 05:05 |
| darkcrab | na, i am comfortable enough with the command line at this point that it really doesnt bother me anymore. | 05:05 |
| icesword | Downsay, uninstall some packages | 05:06 |
| darkcrab | my other computer is a mac.lol | 05:06 |
| dthacker | keithclark: rats! I love Sim City. | 05:06 |
| Downsay | prince_jammys, I'm really new to linux and I have no idea how to repartition...I lost my HD space when I downloaded and installed Virtual Box...after I tried to install Windows OS on my virtual box I ran out of room | 05:06 |
| prince_jammys | Downsay: the thing is i would just say to use the gparted live CD :) which you can't do | 05:06 |
| bod_ | Kalandros, yer, but hey said that when 8mb drives were comin out, now people fill 500igs | 05:06 |
| Kalandros | bod_: Exabyte = 1073741824 gigabytes = 1048576 terabytes = 1024 petabytes... | 05:06 |
| dthacker | !mac | 05:06 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about mac - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 05:06 |
| keithclark | dthacker, me too. That makes Age of Empires, Empire Earth and now Sim City 4 | 05:07 |
| bod_ | Kalandros, yer ok, anyone can use the google converter | 05:07 |
| darkcrab | lol ubotu | 05:07 |
| Downsay | prince_jammys, do you have any idea how to uninstall the virtual box and all the HDD space the windows OS took up on it? | 05:07 |
| prince_jammys | Downsay: well, with gparted you would see that repartioning can be fairly simple. the thing is to get it so that can boot that cd | 05:07 |
| Kalandros | bod_: Yeah, well. We are a long, long, long, long, long, long ways off from Petabytes, let alone Exabytes. | 05:07 |
| jescis | I can't find it in synaptic :( | 05:07 |
| Grifte1 | is there no way for me to troubleshoot the audio problems on gutsy? | 05:07 |
| darkcrab | ynow keith, if you can, your better off just doing a duel boot. | 05:07 |
| Downsay | prince_jammys, I'm about ready to give up and start fresh and delete ubuntu all together | 05:07 |
| Kaneda15 | mm the 64-bit version of ubuntu 7.10 seems rather unstable, not sure if it's just me or what Oo | 05:07 |
| Odd-rationale | Downsay: sudo apt-get remove virtualbox and delete the ~/.VitualBox dir. | 05:07 |
| bod_ | Kalandros, nah, 25 years people wil be sayin " i think il download the entire internet to my pendrive today" | 05:08 |
| keithclark | darkcrab, no, I have one machine that way and I don't want anymore like it........ | 05:08 |
| Motorsport3 | My 64bit install is pretty stable | 05:08 |
| darkcrab | i havent seen a solution yet, but best thing is to search for your audio card on the forums Griftel | 05:08 |
| Downsay | Odd-rationale, do you think you could help me with the deleting of the ~/.VirtualBox dir.? | 05:08 |
| * Kaneda15 installed last night and has crashed 5 times so far today | 05:08 | |
| prince_jammys | Downsay: no, i don't know how to install virtual box. the thing i find disconcerting is the inability to boot from cd. i'm going to look around on the internet | 05:08 |
| darkcrab | k keith | 05:08 |
| Odd-rationale | Downsay: Sure. It is trivial | 05:08 |
| jescis | ubotu libstdc++.so.5 | 05:08 |
| keithclark | darcrab, I understand though! | 05:08 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about libstdc++.so.5 - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 05:08 |
| prince_jammys | Downsay: *uninstall i meant | 05:08 |
| darkcrab | i understand your point of view too keith | 05:08 |
| Kalandros | bod_: Well, they are working of in Cairo, Egypt on a disc that utilizes holograms and it's supposed to be able to store the entire internet. For businessmen who travel on planes and can't get online, and things like that. You'll be able to check any static data. =] | 05:09 |
| Odd-rationale | Downsay: Do you want to remove the whole folder or just the .vdi ? | 05:09 |
| Downsay | I want to remove everything associated with it | 05:09 |

| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about c++ libraries - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 05:09 |
| dthacker | jescis: do you have libstdc installed? | 05:09 |
| Downsay | Is there any way for me to defrag in linux? | 05:09 |
| Odd-rationale | Downsay: rm ~/.VirtualBox | 05:09 |
| jescis | uum | 05:09 |
| Odd-rationale | !defrag | Downsay | 05:10 |
| ubotu | Downsay: The default Ubuntu filesystem (ext3) is engineered to avoid fragmentation issues in most cases, see http://linkpot.net/behead/ for a simple example on how it achieves this. A package "defrag" is available in !Universe, however its use is not safe, and is generally not needed. | 05:10 |
| bod_ | Kalandros, pointless,.,. unless they have a 100gig download speed and noone else in the world using any bandwidth | 05:10 |
| keithclark | darkcrab, I am just stubborn enough to keep looking casually though. | 05:10 |

| Downsay | somehow I don't believe that defrag...or something is going screwy with my system even more than I can imagine | 05:10 |
| gr1ff1n | hello | 05:11 |
| Downsay | I installed virtual box and on virtual box I installed WindowsXP while installing XP it ran out of space and said it would resume when I was able to free more space | 05:11 |
| Downsay | I have 0 space to free | 05:11 |
| Odd-rationale | Downsay: Fragmentation is only an issue if your partition is over %90 full | 05:11 |
| Kalandros | bod_: Who knows, Intel just released the Core 2 Quad with the 65 nm technology and they already said by the end of the year, they are going to release the new 45 nm processor. Who knows, probably by the time that disc comes out, we'll be downloading and measuring it by gigabytes per second. | 05:11 |
| Grifte1 | darkcrab: sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. sometimes it gives me an error message when I boot up the machine. something about GNOME have problems. I've been trying to get it to appear again so I could copy the error message but as it seems to appear at random I haven't been able to do it yet. | 05:11 |
| bod_ | Kalandros, yer, but amd will be ahead of intel in 2 years, then they'll die out in 10 years | 05:12 |
| Downsay | Odd-rationale, my partition is 100% full | 05:12 |
| Odd-rationale | Downsay: Were you able to get any cd to boot? The alt cd? | 05:12 |
| jescis | dthacker, I didn't have any libstd packages installed | 05:12 |
| Downsay | Odd-rationale, no, no cd will boot\ | 05:12 |
| Grifte1 | either on reboot or when I reset the desktop | 05:12 |
| Kalandros | bod_: Don't get on this topic, people have been saying that for years. Who has the best Quad-Core out? Intel. The Phenom doesn't even compare. | 05:12 |
| Odd-rationale | Downsay: How did you install ubuntu? | 05:12 |
| Downsay | Odd-rationale, they will play, but will not boot at startup even after bios has been adjusted | 05:12 |
| gr1ff1n | would you know why I keep getting the error : configure: error: Package requirements (pygtk-2.0 >= 2.8.0) were not met. When i install wan -> python-gtk2-dev is installed .... | 05:12 |
| gr1ff1n | When I install awn | 05:13 |
| Downsay | Odd-rationale, I installed it by downloading Feisty Fawn, burning it to a cd, and then rebooting computer with feisty fawn in my drive (I did this bout 8 months ago) | 05:13 |
| prince_jammys | Downsay: are you able to boot that CD now? | 05:13 |
| dthacker | jescis: My Spidey sense tells me that you will have to do some googling to find which ubuntu package provides this library. Hang on a sec.... | 05:13 |
| Odd-rationale | Downsay: And since then you can never boot cd? | 05:13 |
| Downsay | prince_jammys, I do not have that cd with me, I am 300miles away at school | 05:13 |
| bod_ | Kalandros, yer, but intel are only known worldwide because of their connection with pcworld,. people would never here the word intel unless they worked in developing hardware otherwise | 05:13 |
| Downsay | Odd-rationale, I've never tried since then until today | 05:14 |
| darkcrab | Keith : http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=7500 | 05:14 |
| Downsay | Odd-rationale, when I download gparted, for example, do I need to extract it and then burn it to a cd? | 05:14 |
| prince_jammys | Downsay: you are positive that you burnt the CD image and not the CD data (in the recent Cd you burnt)? | 05:14 |
| Kalandros | bod_: But that still supports my point, Intel is over AMD. People ask what AMD is, not Intel. | 05:14 |
| jescis | dthacker, that wont be necissary,it worked thanks. :) | 05:14 |
| Odd-rationale | Downsay: No | 05:14 |
| prince_jammys | Downsay: you need to burn the iso as image | 05:14 |
| Downsay | prince_jammys, no, I am not positive at all, I'm a newb | 05:14 |
| prince_jammys | Downsay: this *might* be the problem | 05:15 |
| Downsay | prince_jammys, how do I burn as an iso? | 05:15 |
| dthacker | jescis: yay! \o/ | 05:15 |
| prince_jammys | Downsay: what software are you using to burn? | 05:15 |
| Motorsport3 | Downsay: if the CD can be read from w/in the OS, it should be able to boot from CD | 05:15 |
| bod_ | Kalandros, yer, but even without publicity amd are competing with 'if you like' media iants | 05:15 |
| bod_ | giants* | 05:15 |
| dthacker | but for future reference you can search for package contents here: http://packages.ubuntu.com/ | 05:15 |
| Downsay | prince_jammys, I'll have to do it in windows because I don't have any room to DL the gparted file on this comp | 05:15 |
| Downsay | prince_jammys, I didn't use any software, just copy/pasted it onto a cd-r | 05:15 |
| Motorsport3 | Downsay: also, why don't you delete the WinXP virtual machine? | 05:15 |
| Kalandros | bod_: Eh, I don't really care who wins, there will be a better computer either way. =] | 05:16 |
| darkcrab | Griftel first thing I always go to is the driver. See if you have the proper restricted driver installed. If you do not, then get it. If you do, try to configure it. If it is configured correctly. Then start searching the forums. | 05:16 |
| Motorsport3 | Downsay: you copied and pasted what to CD-ARE? | 05:16 |
| Downsay | Motorsport3, I'd like to delete the WinXP VM, but I don't know how (I've already deleted Virtual Box) | 05:16 |
| cottima | I am having trouble installing linux raid. | 05:16 |
| bod_ | Kalandros, true, and fair play,. and why didnt we get !ot 'd during this convo i wonder? | 05:16 |
| Motorsport3 | CD-R? | 05:16 |
| Downsay | Motorsport3, yes, I did, my CD-R's are really old, I never use them, so I don't care if they work properly or not, I have plenty of them | 05:16 |
| Odd-rationale | Downsay: Did you delete the ~/.VirtualBox folder? | 05:16 |
| Kalandros | bod_: What's that command for? Silencing? | 05:17 |
| namegame | I would try a DVD-R if possible | 05:17 |
| Motorsport3 | Downsay: you have to burn the ISO to CD, not copy it to CD | 05:17 |
| Downsay | Odd-rationale, I typed in sudo rm ~/.VirtualBox | 05:17 |
| prince_jammys | Downsay: then what's happening is the CD contains a file gparted.iso or something, which won't boot | 05:17 |
| dthacker | !raid | 05:17 |
| 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 | 05:17 |
| bod_ | Kalandros, silencin? what i dont understand -- im not too savy with the irc lino | 05:17 |
| cottima | I used Anaconda on Centos to partition for RAID 1 and LVM2 | 05:17 |
| Odd-rationale | Downsay: Any errors? | 05:17 |
| Downsay | what program should I use to burn it as an ISO? I don't have any programs for that that I know of | 05:17 |
| gr1ff1n | gnomebaker | 05:17 |
| Downsay | Odd-rationale, no, it didn't show any errors | 05:17 |
| Odd-rationale | Downsay: From windows or ubuntu? | 05:17 |
| prince_jammys | Downsay: try deepburner, it's free. and select "Burn cd image" | 05:18 |
| Motorsport3 | Downsay: on windows or Ubuntu? | 05:18 |
| prince_jammys | windows | 05:18 |
| Grifte1 | darkcrab: how do I know if I have the proper driver installed? how do know which driver I should have? | 05:18 |
| Kalandros | bod_: Well, I didn't know what you said with !ot 'd | 05:18 |
| rrm | had a question. can you have xfce only not the gnome libs and all that... sincer i tried that and my system crashed | 05:18 |
| dthacker | cottima: and...? | 05:18 |
| Downsay | it will have to be windows because I don't have enough room here | 05:18 |
| Kalandros | bod_: I'm not a IRC expert either. xDDD | 05:18 |
| Downsay | Should I go ahead and extract the file and then burn as an ISO or don't extract? | 05:18 |
| Odd-rationale | Downsay: Let me get you link... | 05:18 |
| prince_jammys | Downsay: you can use DeepBurner -- just make sure you "burn cd image" | 05:18 |
| darkcrab | Griftel, well first off, you need to open the hardware manager, and look and see if your devices is recognized and functioning properly. Even if you obviously know its not fuctioning properly, you need to see what the system says. | 05:19 |
| bod_ | Kalandros, !ot = !offtopic | 05:19 |
| prince_jammys | Downsay: otherwise you just burn a data cd that contains the iso file. this is why it won't boot | 05:19 |
| Kalandros | bod_: I don't know what that does. o_O | 05:19 |
| darkcrab | Once you do that, then you can decide whether you have the proper driver or not by what it says is installed. | 05:19 |
| Downsay | prince_jammys, that's fine, but after I've dl'ed the file I don't know what to do | 05:19 |
| icesword | ! BURN | 05:20 |
| ubotu | CD/DVD Burning software: K3b (KDE), gnomebaker, serpentine, graveman, Nautilus-CD-Burner, GToaster, xcdroast (GNOME), wodim (terminal-based). Burning .iso files: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto | 05:20 |
| Downsay | prince_jammys, it shows it as being a zipped file, do I need to unzip it? | 05:20 |
| bod_ | !ot > Kalandros please read pm from ubotu | 05:20 |
| cottima | dthacher, Since I am new to ubuntu, I do not how to install a package on the live cd | 05:20 |
| Motorsport3 | Downsay: yes | 05:20 |
| prince_jammys | Downsay: go to deepburner.com | 05:20 |
| darkcrab | preferences>hardware information | 05:20 |
| Downsay | motorsport3, after I unzip it then I burn the entire folder as an image via deepburner? | 05:20 |
| Kalandros | bod_: I see, and thanks. =] | 05:20 |
| Odd-rationale | Downsay: try: http://isorecorder.alexfeinman.com/isorecorder.htm | 05:20 |
| prince_jammys | Downsay: what is the name of the file you downloaded? | 05:20 |
| icesword | Downsay, no,you need to burn a iso file | 05:21 |
| Motorsport3 | Downsay: no, just the ISO. I say use IMGBURN, www.imgburn.com All it does is burn ISO | 05:21 |
| bod_ | Kalandros, no probs and.... | 05:21 |
| Downsay | ok, I'll try that | 05:21 |
| dthacker | cottima: what package are you attempting to install? | 05:21 |
| bod_ | !ubotu > Kalandros you can find the factoid commands here | 05:21 |
| Downsay | I'll be back in a few minutes | 05:21 |
| Kalandros | bod_: Interesting. =]]] | 05:22 |
| Downsay | thx for the help | 05:22 |
| prince_jammys | Downsay: hold on | 05:22 |
| prince_jammys | Downsay: what is the full name of the file you downloaded? | 05:22 |
| prince_jammys | including extension | 05:22 |
| bod_ | Kalandros, also only talk to ubotu for your knowledge in a private session, dont flood the channel just so you can see what they do ,.,. eg, type this /msg ubotu !ohmy | 05:22 |
| icesword | prince_jammys, i think it is *.zip | 05:22 |
| Downsay | I don't know, I downloaded it from ubotu's descriptions when I typed in /msg ubotu gparted | 05:22 |
| prince_jammys | !gparted | 05:23 |
| 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/ | 05:23 |
| Motorsport3 | looks like they're in bz2 and tar files | 05:23 |
| Lartza_ | My system has got a little unstable, shuold I reinstall? | 05:23 |
| cottima | dthacker sorry, dmraid | 05:23 |
| bod_ | Lartza_, whats unstable about it? | 05:23 |
| icesword | seems it is iso file | 05:23 |
| Downsay | prince_jammys, then I clicked on the sourceforge http: | 05:24 |
| Lartza_ | aMSN stopped working, teewars stopped working, weather applet stopped working, dns problems | 05:24 |
| keithclark | dthacker, thanks for your help by the way | 05:24 |
| Downsay | prince_jammys, and I downloaded the first gparted iso | 05:24 |
| darkcrab | http://gparted-livecd.tuxfamily.org/ | 05:24 |
| Lartza_ | dns problems are fixed(for now) | 05:24 |
| dthacker | keithclark: np ;D | 05:24 |
| Lartza_ | oh... and internet is slow | 05:24 |
| bod_ | Lartza_, id suggest sticking with it, asking bout specific things in here, using alternatives, and waiting a month for the next release ,.,. Hardy | 05:24 |
| Lartza_ | I spent a hour resolving a teewars problem on teewars chan and nobody could help | 05:25 |
| dthacker | cottima: Have you installed ubuntu? | 05:25 |
| Lartza_ | it sotpped working in a reboot | 05:25 |
| Grifte1 | Alright I'm looking in the device manager for my M-Audio Audiophile 24/96. I found the profile for ICE1712 which has many sub-profiles for ALSA and OSS. | 05:25 |
| Ezra | what does the install - f command do? | 05:25 |
| Lartza_ | cant join games | 05:25 |
| prince_jammys | Downsay: then you don't have to unzip anything. the file is already a .iso | 05:25 |
| Downsay | prince_jammys, so once I finish dl'ing this file then I can go ahead and use deepburner? | 05:26 |
| Lartza_ | how can i get amsn work? | 05:26 |
| cottima | dthacker, no I have not. I am trying to do RAID 1, then LVM, then install. But I can not get neither lvm2 or linux raid. | 05:26 |
| darkcrab | if it doesnt show up in that list of hardware then most likely that is why your having a problem. | 05:26 |
| darkcrab | possibly | 05:26 |
| prince_jammys | Downsay: either that or the other burner that's up there | 05:26 |
| darkcrab | Sometimes the linux drivers work, and sometimes they dont. | 05:26 |
| darkcrab | the price you pay for opensource sometimes. | 05:27 |
| prince_jammys | Downsay: whatever you use, make sure it's set to "burn cd image". one of the links if you scroll up is for a burner that only burns images | 05:27 |
| Downsay | ok | 05:27 |
| bod_ | Lartza_, run amsn from terminal then pastebin the error messages | 05:27 |
| Downsay | could you help me download deepburner and get it set up, I'm not sure how to do that still with Linux | 05:27 |
| dthacker | cottima: the partioning tool on the liveCD should handle Raid1 with LVM. | 05:27 |
| Motorsport3 | deepburner is on windows | 05:27 |
| Downsay | when I go to deepburner.com I then click on download, then first one down that says free | 05:27 |
| * dthacker has 3 minutes left | 05:27 | |
| prince_jammys | Downsay: hold on, what do you mean with linux? | 05:27 |
| darkcrab | so if you dont see the name of your sound card the next step is to do a search for restricted packages for your audio card online | 05:27 |
| fismoll8 | hey guys--was wondering what the /sys folder is for--mine is empty and I'd like to delete it | 05:28 |
| prince_jammys | Downsay: i thought you were doing this in windows | 05:28 |
| Downsay | I mean I'm not sure how to install things after I dl them | 05:28 |
| Lartza_ | bod_:this might solve other problems because two other programs stopped working same time | 05:28 |
| Motorsport3 | Downsay: deepburner is on windows | 05:28 |
| Downsay | I'm in Linux atm | 05:28 |
| Downsay | ahh | 05:28 |
| Downsay | ok then | 05:28 |
| Downsay | so I have to go to windows? | 05:28 |
| Motorsport3 | yes | 05:28 |
| Kalandros | Anybody use Wine? | 05:28 |
| Downsay | so I should cancel this dl | 05:28 |
| Downsay | lol | 05:28 |
| prince_jammys | Downsay: ok let's clarify - windows or linux? | 05:28 |
| sutabi | Anyone know why I cant set my resolution any higher then 1024x768? this is a widescreen LCD plus it scales a lot higher on windows | 05:28 |
| dthacker | !anybody | 05:28 |
| bod_ | Lartza_, getting error messages is always the first step -- we cant fix things unless we know whats broken | 05:28 |
| Starnestommy | fismoll8: it usually holds certain info that the kernel and system programs use | 05:28 |
| ubotu | In place of "Does anyone/anybody...", please be aware, one persons expert is another persons beginner, please ask your question in full, then see what helps! | 05:28 |
| dbmood1 | what is the problem hacker | 05:28 |
| Lartza_ | bod_: there are no error messages | 05:28 |
| Downsay | I'm currently ON linux and I was wanting to burn from Linux right now | 05:28 |
| fismoll8 | then why is it empty starnestommy | 05:28 |
| Lartza_ | should i strace amsn? | 05:28 |
| dbmood1 | and ... you are using a live cd ? | 05:28 |
| prince_jammys | Downsay: oh then you don't need to download anything | 05:29 |
| Lartza_ | bod_: no errors | 05:29 |
| bod_ | Lartza_, then the program works,.,. do sudo apt-get purge amsn && sudo apt-get install amsn | 05:29 |
| prince_jammys | Downsay: if you use ubuntu, you can just click on the iso i think and the burner will open a window | 05:29 |
| Lartza_ | its not the apt-get version | 05:29 |
| Lartza_ | and it stopped working yesterday | 05:29 |
| bod_ | Lartza_, why not? | 05:29 |
| jeffMASTERflex | Downsay: just insert an empty disc into your optical drive | 05:29 |
| Lartza_ | it starts and the window is grey | 05:29 |
| bod_ | Lartza_, wot did you do to break it yesterday? | 05:29 |
| Lartza_ | i dont know | 05:30 |
| Lartza_ | rebooted | 05:30 |
| Starnestommy | fismoll8: don't delete it | 05:30 |
| prince_jammys | Downsay: lol, i thought you said you were doing this from windows | 05:30 |
| Downsay | alright, I'll try that in a few minutes when the DL finishes | 05:30 |
| Downsay | I was going to | 05:30 |
| Lartza_ | weather apllet and teewars broke too | 05:30 |
| Downsay | but I was able to free up enough space that I didn't need to reboot into windows | 05:30 |
| cottima | dthacker, it does not at least the regular 7.10 cd. | 05:30 |
| Lartza_ | teewars gives me some error | 05:30 |
| Lartza_ | amsn doesnt | 05:30 |
| dthacker | cottima: try the server CD | 05:30 |
| fismoll8 | no, I won't | 05:30 |
| fismoll8 | just did ls -a...files were hidden | 05:30 |
| Lartza_ | maybe the teewars message would help | 05:30 |
| dthacker | time to go. good localtime all. | 05:30 |
| dbmood1 | what is he trying to do ? | 05:30 |
| fismoll8 | however, I have deleted my opt folder...didn't seem to be doing much | 05:31 |
| dbmood1 | oh disk space problems | 05:31 |
| fismoll8 | same with initrd | 05:31 |
| prince_jammys | Downsay: ok, well once the download is done, you can insert a blank CD and drag the iso file into the "nautilus cd burner" window. then you select "burn CD image" and burn it | 05:31 |
| jeffMASTERflex | fismoll8: why are you deleting direcotries on / ? | 05:31 |
| dbmood1 | burn the media and then resize if you don't want windows remove the c:windows dir | 05:31 |
| Starnestommy | fismoll8: initrd is used in the boot process | 05:31 |
| fismoll8 | my computer booted fine without it | 05:31 |
| Odd-rationale | Lartza_: One easy way to start over again is to delete all the "." files in your home directory. That can get rid of some quirks. | 05:31 |
| Lartza_ | bod_:http://www.privatepaste.com/c10brvm9b6 | 05:31 |
| fismoll8 | there were no files in it when I deleted it | 05:31 |
| Downsay | lol, I suck at life, but what is the nautilus cd burner? | 05:31 |
| Lartza_ | in the end before sigkill | 05:32 |
| fismoll8 | I'm just trying to get an understanding of /--and what directories are really necessary | 05:32 |
| CarlFK | is there an app that will low level format a drive? (I have a 400gig drive that was 'wipted' and now fdisk won't read it) | 05:32 |
| Lartza_ | odd-rationale: tried that with teewars already | 05:32 |
| YeTr2_ | was PPC platform completely droped, or will they release a new version w/ the new LTS? | 05:32 |
| Lartza_ | odd-rationale: havent tried with amsn though | 05:32 |
| jeffMASTERflex | fismoll8: if it's empty, why do you even bother deleting it? | 05:32 |
| prince_jammys | Downsay: it's a window that will open on it's own - it's the name of the software that burns cds | 05:32 |
| cottima | okay thank you dthacker. I just wish I did not have to keep downloading more CDs. Have a nice day. | 05:32 |
| prince_jammys | *its | 05:32 |
| prince_jammys | grammar! | 05:32 |
| dbmood1 | fismoll8: which are needed ? none just /home and etc if you are backing up really | 05:32 |
| Lartza_ | nobody knew what this meant: futex(0xb7bafab8, FUTEX_WAIT, 2, NULL) = ? ERESTARTSYS (To be restarted) | 05:32 |
| dbmood1 | but it will not run without most of the rest | 05:32 |
| bod_ | Lartza_, also, try reading the report urslf -- Resource temporarily unavailable | 05:32 |
| fismoll8 | you don't need anything else? | 05:32 |
| Odd-rationale | Lartza_: Did it work for teewars? | 05:33 |
| Flannel | YeTr2_: It's officially unsupported (except dapper will be supported until EOL), but there's a community port thats still alive and well | 05:33 |
| Downsay | prince_jammys, alright, I'll be done here in 45 seconds with the DL | 05:33 |
| jeffMASTERflex | fismoll8: if you want to break your system, there are easier ways | 05:33 |
| fismoll8 | for backup---what about /bin and /usr | 05:33 |
| Motorsport3 | gparted servers are slow | 05:33 |
| Lartza_ | the "." thing? no | 05:33 |
| Kalandros | I have a question: I have Wine the Windows Emulator, and the Internet Explorer does not want to work. What do I do? | 05:33 |
| fismoll8 | I have a backup of it, so I'm just experimenting | 05:33 |
| prince_jammys | Downsay: i'll be here | 05:33 |
| Flannel | Kalandros: #winehq would be a better place to get help (they'll knwo more) | 05:33 |
| Downsay | awesome prince, ty so very much for your help | 05:33 |
| YeTr2_ | Flannel: granted that this PC will never see the light of day or the internet for atleast 3 years, I'm trying to find something that will keep PPC going. | 05:33 |
| Motorsport3 | what version of IE Kalandros | 05:33 |
| Lartza_ | recvfrom(10, 0x9082be8, 1030, 0, 0xbfbdbaf8, 0xbfbdbaf4) = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily unavailable) | 05:33 |
| Lartza_ | recvfrom(10, 0x9082be8, 1030, 0, 0xbfbdbaf8, 0xbfbdbaf4) = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily unavailable) | 05:33 |
| fismoll8 | I guess I just figured ubuntu could be a bit like microsoft---you know---leaving junk behind that you don't really need | 05:33 |
| Downsay | the only thing that makes me want to try and learn linux is the help I receive here | 05:33 |
| Kalandros | Motorsport3: Whatever one comes with Wine? | 05:33 |
| Downsay | so thx | 05:33 |
| Lartza_ | futex(0xb7bafab8, FUTEX_WAIT, 2, NULL) = ? ERESTARTSYS (To be restarted) | 05:33 |
| elm1 | yo | 05:33 |
| Kalandros | xDDD | 05:33 |
| icesword | ...... | 05:34 |
| Lartza_ | my problems? | 05:34 |
| YeTr2_ | Flannel: so, Ubuntu has officially dropped PPC? | 05:34 |
| Flannel | YeTr2_: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ports/releases/7.10/release/ | 05:34 |
| Motorsport3 | Kalandros: I wasn't aware of wine coming w/ any version of IE | 05:34 |
| Motorsport3 | But, I see the exe | 05:34 |
| dbmood1 | did ubuntu have ppc ? | 05:34 |
| Kalandros | Motorsport3: When I downloaded the install, it was in the Program Files... | 05:34 |
| Downsay | prince_jammys, What would I like to do, make audio cd, data cd, or ignore? | 05:34 |
| dbmood1 | - try debian for ppc | 05:34 |
| Flannel | YeTr2_: "Officially" only because there weren't enough PPC users that were testing (so we couldn't provide adequate bugfixes) | 05:34 |
| Lartza_ | im getting you the amsn error | 05:34 |
| bod_ | Lartza_, your problem is "(Resource temporarily unavailable)" | 05:35 |
| prince_jammys | Downsay: mmm. try ignore --- and drag the iso into the window | 05:35 |
| Lartza_ | teewars ppl said the futex line | 05:35 |
| Flannel | YeTr2_: the PPC versions are now community supported, pretty well, and there's where the images are (for gutsyanwyay) | 05:35 |
| Flannel | !ppc | YeTr2_ | 05:35 |
| ubotu | YeTr2_: PowerPC. Formerly used by Apple for the Macintosh line of computers. Variants are now used in popular gaming consoles. PPC was a fully supported Ubuntu architecture up to and including edgy. It is now a community port, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PowerPCFAQ | 05:35 |
| Downsay | prince_jammys, it didn't open up a window, should I double click on the blank cd-r on the desktop and then try and click and drag it that way? | 05:35 |
| Flannel | YeTr2_: that page has a lot more info than I could ever convey | 05:35 |
| Motorsport3 | Kalandros: I see it, my launched just fine. Are you double clicking it? | 05:35 |
| Lartza_ | bod_:all my programs freeze when connecting somewhere | 05:35 |
| prince_jammys | Downsay: try that | 05:36 |
| bod_ | !elaborate > im going to bed, please ask the channel, and read the pm from ubotu | 05:36 |
| prince_jammys | Downsay: i think it also appears in your menu under "places"->nautilus cd burner | 05:36 |
| Lartza_ | amsn: connect(9, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(443), sin_addr=inet_addr("65.54.179.216")}, 16 and freeze | 05:36 |
| cottima | is the server install cd totally command or is it like debian or anaconda (not gui)? | 05:36 |
| Downsay | prince_jammys, alright, now that I opened it up and dragged it there, I clicked write disc, it brought up the option write as image, I clicked that | 05:37 |
| nickrud | bod_: you sure you want im to read that factoid :) | 05:37 |
| Kalandros | Motorsport3: It loads, but then it doesn't load the Webpage. | 05:37 |
| prince_jammys | Downsay: excellent, that's it | 05:37 |
| Downsay | prince_jammys, then under information it says write disc to: DVDRAM or File Image | 05:37 |
| Downsay | prince_jammys, Do I change it to File Image? | 05:37 |
| Flannel | cottima: Server CD dosen't install a GUI, correct. But, like all Ubuntu flavors, you can convert/add/whatever to any other version with a single command | 05:37 |
| Ezra | norske brukere: kom til #ubuntu-no | 05:37 |
| Lartza_ | my problem in amsn is resource temporarily unavailable too | 05:37 |
| Lartza_ | futex(0x8be5174, FUTEX_WAIT, 15, NULL) = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily unavailable) | 05:37 |
| prince_jammys | Downsay: my guess on that is yes | 05:37 |
| Lartza_ | read(5, 0xbff8e404, 32) = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily unavailable) | 05:38 |
| Downsay | wow, it took like 2 seconds max to write it as an ISO image file, I'm not sure it worked | 05:38 |

| prince_jammys | LimCore: what do i need to do? | 05:49 |
| LimCore | prince_jammys: get a filter. like a is-not-spam filter (its standard fiter) and have it in as icon on the top box | 05:49 |
| Motorsport3 | seb9693, neither did I, but it was stupid easy to install and use wine | 05:49 |
| LimCore | prince_jammys: then click this filter quickly say 10 times, so it will start to mark 10 messages as not-spam | 05:50 |

| FloodBot2 | !netsplit | 05:58 |
| 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 | 05:58 |
| darkcrab | Griftel, then likely ubuntu just has a problem with your card. My suggestion to you is try another distribution, like PClinuxOS. | 05:58 |

| Kaneda15 | what sound card you having trouble with Grifte1? | 05:59 |
| Gary_inNYC | i want AWN to behave in such a way that when i minimize a program to tray (ex. pidgin, Rhythmbox), the launcher is hidden from the dock as well, sort of imitating gnome panel behavior. | 05:59 |
| regeya | netsplits are so much fun | 05:59 |
| prince_jammys | LimCore: didn't crash | 05:59 |
| Gary_inNYC | can it be done? | 05:59 |
| svat | can I use zenity to pop up a message on another display? | 06:00 |
| regeya | awn is designed to more closely imitate os x behavior, or more specifically the os x behavior when you hide an app | 06:00 |
| credible | svat: DISPLAY=:2.0 zenity --foo ? | 06:01 |
| regeya | (yes, os x has both minimize and hide...yes, I agree that's weird) | 06:01 |
| chemical | bazhang :my friend job is done...! The Developers did great job | 06:01 |
| Gary_inNYC | yeah, but it's ambiguous when you hide an app to the tray. people are inclined to click the launcher and get nothing to happen | 06:01 |
| svat | credible: and if it's not my display, but I have root, it should work, right? | 06:01 |
| chemical | bazhang :no problems occured | 06:01 |
| credible | svat: yes, but it should only be run as root if it absolutely has to be | 06:02 |
| triorieel | I have a window I cant close...is there anything morew powerful then: sudo kill -SIGKILL 16914 | 06:03 |
| Gary_inNYC | also, is there something i can install so that i can rename files in bulk much in the same way gThumb does it? gThumb's bulk renaming is perfect using context menus | 06:03 |

| josh1857 | ok | 06:20 |
| Flannel | josh1857: package updates (bugs/security) | 06:20 |
| josh1857 | so after that you have to install a newer version? | 06:20 |
| Flannel | josh1857: After that no more updates, yeah. You can upgrade from one LTS to the next, however. Hardy is coming out in April | 06:20 |
| Flannel | Motorsport3: the .1 (and .2) point releases are really only for the isos, not the version itself | 06:20 |
| Motorsport3 | Flannel: didn't know that, thanks | 06:21 |
| josh1857 | that is still slightly confusing | 06:21 |
| Flannel | josh1857: What are you confused about? | 06:21 |
| macogw | Flannel: by what math? 2006+3=2009 | 06:21 |
| josh1857 | the bugs/updates | 06:21 |
| Flannel | macogw: server, 2006 + 5 = 2011 | 06:21 |
| Motorsport3 | yep | 06:21 |
| macogw | Flannel: ooo server | 06:21 |
| Motorsport3 | !skype | 06:21 |

| Flannel | josh1857: Ubuntu has frozen version numbers for its software. The "versions" of the software it shipped with will always be those (Firefox 1.5, for instance). | 06:22 |
| icesword | josh1857, i say,you want stable,why not build a software from source | 06:22 |
| Flannel | josh1857: The updates you recieve are bugfixes and security issues (which I suppose are also bugs), no new features, and no new versions | 06:22 |
| macogw | Flannel: no i think it has ff2 now because 1.5 gets no security updates | 06:22 |
| Motorsport3 | macogw: I think it was just an example | 06:22 |
| Flannel | macogw: no. 1.5 is getting backported updates, the ubuntu team is supporting it themselves. 2.0 is in -backports though | 06:22 |
| rhineheart_m | how to prevent ubuntu to be accessible by IP? I want it to be accessed only with domain | 06:23 |
| josh1857 | forgive my ignorance i am a bsd user | 06:23 |
| Motorsport3 | bsd rox | 06:23 |
| josh1857 | we dont have "retired" versions | 06:23 |
| josh1857 | ;-) | 06:23 |
| macogw | Flannel: really? | 06:23 |
| credible | rhineheart_m: I'm not sure exactly what you're asking, but in general that's impossible | 06:23 |
| Flannel | josh1857: A lot of linuxes dont | 06:23 |
| Flannel | macogw: http://packages.ubuntu.com/dapper/firefox | 06:23 |
| macogw | Flannel: weirditude | 06:23 |
| josh1857 | trying to wrap my mind around it | 06:24 |
| pyrak | can i use ekiga to make calls through my phone line? | 06:24 |
| pyrak | meaning, to other land lines? | 06:24 |
| rhineheart_m | credible: I've seen a lot of sites that can't be accessed by numerical | 06:24 |
| Flannel | josh1857: Basically once its unsupported, you need to upgrade/reinstall whatever. It only happens because Ubuntu uses a time-based, frozen version, release methodology. Instead of a rolling release one (like debian [stable|unstable]) | 06:24 |
| killown | does anyone know any utility to do overclock on celeron processors? | 06:24 |
| ce_airmata | d | 06:24 |
| magnetron | pyrak: yes, if you get an account at a SIP broker | 06:24 |
| credible | rhineheart_m: the domain name is just resolved into an IP addres | 06:24 |
| ce_airmata | ce_fz_yM | 06:24 |
| credible | so even when you visit a website by domain, it's being fetched by its IP | 06:25 |
| pyrak | magnetron, i can't just plug in my own phone line? | 06:25 |
| benny_ | rhineheart_m: probably some iptables hacks for that.. not that this is a helpful comment. :) | 06:25 |
| josh1857 | flannel: so that means i need upgrade or reinstall and setup the entire server? | 06:25 |
| magnetron | pyrak: you could, but that would require special and uncommon hardware | 06:25 |
| josh1857 | every 3 years | 06:25 |
| josh1857 | or however long | 06:25 |
| Flannel | josh1857: five years (on the server) | 06:25 |
| josh1857 | hmm | 06:26 |
| Flannel | josh1857: yes, or you can just stop getting any udpates what so ever | 06:26 |
| josh1857 | ok | 06:26 |
| Flannel | josh1857: It's not going to magically stop working, you just wont have any updates | 06:26 |
| josh1857 | I understand that it just seems odd for a production server | 06:26 |
| PiousMinion | Anyone know how I can record a video of my screen including the compiz effects? | 06:27 |
| Flannel | josh1857: Well, if you dont want to be on a treadmill, however long, Ubuntu may not be the right OS for you. We're not going to lie to you | 06:28 |
| Odd-rationale | PiousMinion: gtk-recordmydesktop will if you have a fast enough computer | 06:28 |
| PiousMinion | Odd-rationale: and if I have an old ratty computer? | 06:28 |
| Odd-rationale | PiousMinion: Otherwise the compiz efect will be kindof slow | 06:28 |

| raiderxx | I am having trouble seeing my applications on my desktop. Can someone help? | 06:31 |
| Flannel | !lamp | cens0red | 06:31 |
| ubotu | cens0red: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) | 06:31 |
| astheo | hi, is there a linux version of chikka? | 06:31 |
| Codeninja | I got the same problem as raju, not sure what to do - doesn't run from boot and when it get it running the GUI doesn't load fully, only the background.... When considering I'm a linux nub is a pain | 06:31 |
| Flannel | josh1857: I believe there's also a section dedicated to the server edition on ubuntu forums (ubuntuforums.org) | 06:32 |
| curioususer | bretton07, if you copy the ROM to your root directory on a blank memory card under FAT32 you can press the combo keys (PWR+CAMERA on Titan) to load it | 06:32 |
| bullgard4 | macogw: Thank you very much for reminding me on 'bootchart'. | 06:32 |

| macogw | Neeku: depends exactly what you want to do | 06:38 |
| prince_jammys | raju: all i can think of is to try the alternate CD, but maybe there's another way | 06:38 |

| prince_jammys | midnight commander, a file manager | 06:39 |

| bullgard4 | macogw: mc is the Midnight commander. | 06:39 |
| raju | prince_jammys, ok | 06:39 |
| prince_jammys | bullgard4: eog is "eye of gnome", an image viewer | 06:39 |
| macogw | bullgard4: because its not an image viewer | 06:39 |

| bullgard4 | prince_jammys: Thank you for helping. | 06:40 |
| macogw | Neeku: it depends what you want to use each for | 06:40 |
| Neeku | macogw: or something else... | 06:40 |
| prince_jammys | raju: the alternate cd is another install cd | 06:40 |
| macogw | Neeku: and how much each gets is totally up to you | 06:40 |
| macogw | Neeku: id suggest a 10GB partition for / and then however much space you want to hold your stuff for /home | 06:41 |
| Odd-rationale | Neeku: Go to System --> Admin --> System monitor and go to the filesystem tab. | 06:41 |
| bullgard4 | macogw: I hear your guess. But I will further enquire. Because mc is such a universal tool that it would surprise me that it cannot handle .png files. | 06:41 |

| macogw | bullgard4: it doesnt say image viewer when i read the info on it | 06:42 |

| gitpik | hi all! I'm having trouble with a few avi files on VLC. They work fine in Mplayer, but in VLC the colors are misaligned so that there is a green bar across the top of the screen. | 07:07 |
| macogw | Neeku: if youre having a separate /home partition for easy reinstalls (thats what i do) | 07:07 |
| Seveas | J-_laptop, it uses ssh as transport | 07:07 |
| whos2know | well... i can't get the other error to come up .... but... it's a simular problem.... that it can't write... | 07:07 |
| whos2know | i've tried to fix the permissions... but... that didn't work... | 07:07 |
| gitpik | I've installed a bunch of different codecs but nothing seems to work :( | 07:08 |
| J-_laptop | Seveas: thank you sir! @lart Seveas for being cool. =P | 07:08 |
| whos2know | i still downloads the ones that it was downloading before... but... don't download any new torrents.. :\ | 07:08 |
| devron6 | who2knowsss: i do not know then | 07:08 |
| Neeku | macogw: and what about the swap? my ram is 1gb now; shall i keep it with 1gb size, or make it 2gb? | 07:08 |
| whos2know | torrent paused: disk write error, open failed: '/home No such file or directory | 07:08 |
| J-_laptop | Seveas: does that mean, I can still use ssh keys with that protocol to secure the connection? | 07:08 |
| macogw | Neeku: if you make it 2GB you can use hibernate even when more than 1GB is in use | 07:08 |
| whos2know | this is the other error code I recieve.. :\ | 07:09 |
| Seveas | J-_laptop, correct | 07:09 |
| nanobug | can someone possibly help me out | 07:09 |
| macogw | Neeku: if you dont use hibernate or suspend...no need to have 2GB | 07:09 |
| J-_laptop | Seveas: thanks | 07:09 |
| nanobug | i have been trying for over an hour now to get ubuntu to allow me to use a higher screen resolution | 07:09 |
| nanobug | i have manually edited my xorg.conf and added a custom modeline using a generator and the specs for my monitor from the manual | 07:10 |
| whos2know | any ideas? | 07:10 |
| nanobug | i have removed all other modelines from xorg.conf except for 1920x1440 | 07:10 |
| nanobug | but it still boots up in 1600x1200 | 07:10 |
| gitpik | including the medibuntu codecs and it's still messed up. It's only some avi too not all. | 07:11 |
| Neeku | now that i'm deleting these partitions are they being deleted right now, or they'll be deleted after a restart? | 07:11 |
| Flannel | Neeku: They're being deleted right now (or assuming you've actually committed the changes) | 07:12 |
| nanobug | is there some sort of display mode autodetection in gutsy? | 07:12 |
| nanobug | because im not understanding how it continues to work with 1600x1200 when I have removed all references to 1600x1200 in xorg.conf | 07:13 |
| nanobug | i would at least understand if x refused to start or the screen was scramble | 07:13 |
| nanobug | but its like my changes in xorg.conf have no effect whatsoever | 07:13 |
| gitpik | anyone have any ideas? | 07:13 |
| Neeku | how can i merge two fat32 partitions? | 07:14 |
| ParanoyaM | Seveas | 07:15 |
| ParanoyaM | i read manual, there is written that i need to run make install from sudo | 07:15 |
| ParanoyaM | but i use asp linux, and there is no sudo | 07:15 |
| cjae | I have a seagate freeagent usb/esata external hdd and it keeps disappearing from all menus and desktop icons and even when it shows it will not miunt. Can I probe the usb connection or something | 07:15 |
| ParanoyaM | there is su, but i need to install asterisk from users asterisk | 07:16 |
| cjae | *mount | 07:16 |
| Seveas | ParanoyaM, asp linux? | 07:16 |
| Seveas | this is an ubuntu support channel, if you don't use ubuntu, don't expect help | 07:16 |
| ParanoyaM | Seveas yes | 07:16 |
| ParanoyaM | Seveas ok then is there any asp linux channel? | 07:16 |
| Neeku | how can i merge two fat partitions? | 07:16 |
| Seveas | no idea | 07:16 |
| ParanoyaM | Seveas thanks | 07:17 |
| macogw | ParanoyaM: you could install sudo | 07:17 |
| Seveas | macogw, if 'asp linux' has that | 07:17 |
| Pendeta | Is there a way to prevent users from playing internet games? | 07:17 |
| Flannel | Pendeta: Take away their internet | 07:17 |
| macogw | Seveas: er....oh yeah....well, s/he could compile it | 07:17 |
| ptc1311 | HI | 07:17 |
| Seveas | macogw, :) | 07:18 |
| Neeku | any ideas? | 07:18 |
| macogw | Seveas: and then use it to finish compiling asterisk.... yay, yak shaving! | 07:19 |
| Pendeta | Flannel, is there any other way (besides shooting them)? | 07:19 |
| prince_jammys | hang them | 07:19 |
| Seveas | Pendeta, don't install flash or java | 07:19 |
| prince_jammys | there you go | 07:19 |
| macogw | Pendeta: block the websites that have games | 07:19 |
| Flannel | Pendeta: Considering the internet has games over HTTP, no, not really. You could try and do the filter thing, but its unlikely to work, and has lots of false positives, and stuff. | 07:19 |

| Odd-rationale | * not so transparent | 07:22 |
| yigal | Odd-rationale: I am using metacity with compositing, basically transparent terminals and a few other things but not full blown compiz | 07:23 |
| yigal | Odd-rationale: it's much less resource intensive and does what I want it to | 07:23 |
| arooni | top seems to be a poor way of seeing where my memory is allocated; is there a better way? | 07:23 |

| armedking | Hey all, Last couple of days i had trouble with 2D rendering in Ubuntu (Bringing CPU to 100% when drawing 2D incl Metacity) what i did is test my card on a windows box (Nvidia 8600GTS) with Windows Nvidia Drivers and tested my card on all aspects saying all works ok. Can i assume now that it's a Software problem? Because i want to figure out now what's Causing the problem. | 07:25 |
| BobSapp | how do i install lmsensors so i can sense my cpu temperature? | 07:26 |
| plux | BobSapp: apt-get install lmsensors | 07:26 |
| jetscreamer | then run sensors-detect | 07:26 |

| BobSapp | thankyou plux | 07:27 |
| armedking | jetscreamer, yes and i ran the Windows Diagnostics on the card all night. | 07:27 |
| jetscreamer | armedking: try glxinfo | grep vendor | 07:27 |

| VioletCrime | Heyas everybody! I'm essentially brand-spankin new to linux as a whole. I'm completely lost as to where to start. I keep trying to find a glossary for things like GNOME and other linux-specific lingo so I can start to make sense of it all, but keep coming up empty. Anyone have some links they can toss a newbies way? | 07:30 |
| armedking | jetscreamer. What i was thinking it had to do something with Mesa (responsible for 2D drawing) lookt more like my box makes Xorg responsible for 2D and not my card | 07:30 |
| jetscreamer | armedking: is that the ubuntu driver or the nvidia driver | 07:30 |
| jetscreamer | ubuntu restricted i mean | 07:31 |
| gambakufu | I'm trying to install libapache-mod-ssl, but I'm getting an error telling me that the package is either missin, obsolete or only available from another source. how do I find out which of those is the actual case? | 07:31 |

| Ubuntu-Noob | does anyone know how i can force a refresh rate? | 08:04 |
| Ubuntu-Noob | its not listed when i go to screen/res | 08:04 |
| AntiUSA | video still does not play... and now the audio is choppier than a sushi bar | 08:05 |
| Ubuntu-Noob | i know my monitor can support up to 75hz but 50 hz is the only option listed | 08:05 |
| prince_jammys | AntiUSA: check the very last post in this forum: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=599939&page=2 | 08:05 |
| vegananarchist | how can i CHMOD the whole USB Drive | 08:06 |
| Roshan | can anyone tell me how to copy/paste text from the gui to the terminal? | 08:06 |
| AntiUSA | for the record, this is NOT my problem, the audio is playing fine | 08:06 |
| macogw | Roshan: right click and hit paste | 08:06 |
| macogw | Roshan: or use ctrl+shift+v to paste | 08:06 |
| prince_jammys | Roshan: middle click | 08:06 |
| vegananarchist | click both right and left click buttons | 08:06 |
| macogw | Roshan: or highlight to copy and middle/both click to paste | 08:06 |
| macogw | lots of options | 08:07 |
| jetscreamer | depends, but most of those methods for pasting work | 08:07 |
| jetscreamer | middle click seems to be more universal | 08:07 |
| jetscreamer | highlight what you want to paste and then middle click where you want it | 08:07 |
| Roshan | I mean, I know how to copy text from here, I just cant paste it back when in my ctrl alt f1 window | 08:07 |
| jetscreamer | ahh | 08:08 |
| jetscreamer | you need gpm maybe, or screen, or both, if it's even doable | 08:08 |
| prince_jammys | AntiUSA: that may be, but since you're stuck... check if that forum thread is relevant to your problem | 08:08 |
| Roshan | what is gpm? | 08:08 |
| macogw | Roshan: lets you use mouse in the tty | 08:08 |
| jetscreamer | mouse for console | 08:08 |
| AntiUSA | i know, I'm looking at it | 08:08 |
| Roshan | I see, would you be so kinda s to tell me how I can get it? | 08:09 |
| Roshan | Im really very new to linux | 08:09 |
| macogw | umm....magic? | 08:09 |
| vegananarchist | My USB stick is still stuck in read only mode, can someone help | 08:09 |
| jetscreamer | mount it rw | 08:09 |
| macogw | its magic that ive seen in fedora and been confused by so i never hunted down on ubuntu | 08:09 |
| prince_jammys | Roshan: you can install it:: sudo apt-get install gpm | 08:09 |
| red_one | help, i get a python error whenever i try to use apt! | 08:09 |
| prince_jammys | !info gpm | 08:10 |

| Odd-rationale | Flynsarmy: Yes. | 08:13 |
| Flynsarmy | Odd-rationale: eg i back up xorg, change screen resolutions and if i can't get htem back to how they're supposed to be replace the new xorg with the backup and reboot. will that fix it back up? | 08:13 |
| Flynsarmy | Odd-rationale: Thanks mate | 08:13 |
| Odd-rationale | Flynsarmy: e.g sudo cp xorg.conf xorg.conf.bak | 08:13 |
| Parsec300 | vegananarchist: you should create a dir in /mnt like usb or something mkdir /mnt/usb. Then mount -rw/dev/sda1 /mnt/usb. I think. | 08:13 |

| alanbshepard70 | how can I delete something from my trash folder that is locked and read only? I tried using rm -R /.trash but it says cannot remove read only file. | 08:14 |
| Odd-rationale | alanbshepard70: Try with sudo | 08:15 |
| macogw | alanbshepard70: sudo | 08:15 |
| Flynsarmy | Odd-rationale: If i reboot it won't try to overwrite my new xorg with the settings currently being used by teh OS? (the dodgy ones) | 08:15 |
| macogw | alanbshepard70: be careful | 08:15 |
| macogw | alanbshepard70: gun is loaded | 08:15 |
| bod_ | alanbshepard70, sudo chmod 777 ~/.trash/name_of_file then delete it if nothing else works | 08:15 |
| alanbshepard70 | Odd-rationale: I am using sudo when I issue that command | 08:15 |
| Odd-rationale | Flynsarmy: no. it won't | 08:15 |
| alanbshepard70 | macogw: Thanks for the warnings, I know how dangerous rm can be. :-o | 08:16 |
| Odd-rationale | Flynsarmy: No need to reboot actually. Just restart X: ctrl+alt+BkSp | 08:16 |
| vegananarchist | when i plug the USB stick in, it automaticly goes to sda1, and i used to be fine but now for some reason is now read only | 08:16 |

| bod_ | alanbshepard70, if its the only thing you have in trash you could use sudo rm -rf ~/Trash/* quite safely | 08:16 |
| magnetron | !sources | mandrig | 08:17 |

| Parsec300 | vegananarchist: Could it be a user/permissions problem? Or perhaps you changed the filesystem? | 08:19 |
| Ergo^ | morning | 08:19 |
| alanbshepard70 | Ok I tried sudo chmod 777 ~.Trash and just using sudo rm ~/.Trash/* and neither helped I still get the read only file message. | 08:20 |
| vegananarchist | i don't know | 08:20 |
| red_one | help, i get a python error whenever i try to use apt! | 08:20 |
| vegananarchist | i'm getting very tired at this point | 08:20 |
| AntiUSA | i'm still stuck guys :( | 08:20 |
| Ergo^ | is it possible to do something like that : i do a fresh install with separate /home | 08:20 |
| AntiUSA | should I just try to reboot? | 08:21 |
| Ergo^ | and then i get another hdd | 08:21 |
| prince_jammys | alanbshepard70: sudo chmod 777 ~/.Trash/nameoffile | 08:21 |
| macogw | Ergo^: yes thts the easiest way to do reinstalls is if you have a separate /home | 08:21 |
| Ergo^ | i move the whole ~users dirs to another partition on second drive | 08:21 |
| Ergo^ | and mount that as new /home ? | 08:21 |
| alanbshepard70 | prince_jammys: I tried that and the command worked/went through but the issue persists | 08:21 |
| macogw | sure | 08:21 |
| Ergo^ | macogw : - there wont be any issues with permissions etc ? | 08:22 |
| Roshan | could anyone tell me how to install wine? | 08:22 |

| prince_jammys | alanbshepard70: can you paste: ls -l ~/.Trash/nameoffile | 08:22 |
| Roshan | thanks | 08:22 |

| AntiUSA | how do I install that? | 08:26 |
| AntiUSA | it's a package? | 08:26 |

| icesword | gary4gar, exe file? | 08:26 |
| prince_jammys | alanbshepard70: that's what i was getting at, yeah. hopefully that works | 08:26 |

| gary4gar | icesword, exe? | 08:26 |
| bazhang | gary4gar heh what is an exe doing in there | 08:26 |
| icesword | gary4gar, tomboy.exe? | 08:27 |
| gary4gar | bazhang, no idea man, i just typed "tomboy" in terminal | 08:27 |
| alanbshepard70 | prince_Jammys: and everyone else, thanks for the help, hopefully this does the trick. | 08:27 |
| bazhang | AntiUSA: go to www.medibuntu.org and follow the instructions there | 08:27 |
| gary4gar | icesword, , no idea man, i just typed "tomboy" in terminal | 08:27 |
| prince_jammys | alanbshepard70: after you're done change the perms of .Trash back, since i think now they are 777 (should be 700) | 08:27 |
| bazhang | gary4gar: how did the exe get in your computer? | 08:27 |
| prince_jammys | alanbshepard70: not the contents, the dir itself | 08:28 |
| alanbshepard70 | prince_jammys: ok. | 08:28 |

| eagle83 | perhaps someone could help me | 08:48 |
| bazhang | Ubuntu-Noob: thanks let me check | 08:48 |
| Roshan | is envy a good idea to install drivers for my nvidia 8600gts? | 08:48 |
| bauke | eagle83: tell us | 08:48 |
| prince_jammys | Roshan: avoid envy | 08:48 |
| eagle83 | I've a problem, to compile a new kernel | 08:49 |
| prince_jammys | !envy | Roshan | 08:49 |
| ubotu | Roshan: envy is an unsupported tool to install newer versions of binary video drivers than provided by the official repositories. Use at your own risk, and remember that the latest version is not necessarily the "best". See « /msg ubotu binarydriver » | 08:49 |
| eagle83 | i downloaded a new kernel from kernel.org, patched it whitch xenomai (realtime for linux) | 08:49 |
| AntiUSA | ahhhh, and when I re-enabled the graphics setting it went back | 08:49 |
| Roshan | what does !envy | Roshan do? | 08:49 |
| AntiUSA | so the problem is the graphics drivers.... | 08:49 |
| eagle83 | everything went ok | 08:49 |
| alanbshepard70 | ok chmod 777 and rm didn't work. some background info, I followed this guide http://www.debuntu.org/how-to-customize-your-ubuntu-live-cd-p2 to remaster a livecd and it left me with the livecd dir the cd was created in that I now can't delete. | 08:50 |
| eagle83 | now, when I want to "make menuconfig" I get this message :root@ubuntu-laptop:/usr/src/linux-2.6.22.12-xenomai# make menuconfig | 08:50 |

| eagle83 | but i can't find something about kconfig | 08:52 |
| Ubuntu-Noob | ill try again mate | 08:52 |

| Ubuntu-Noob | its very annoying tho :) | 08:52 |
| Roshan | envy* | 08:52 |
| bauke | mohi: did you try to make that file (and leave it empty) | 08:52 |
| prince_jammys | Roshan: one problem with envy is when you update to a new version of ubuntu, it can break everything | 08:53 |

| bazhang | eagle83 you trying to compile kconfig? or what is the issue? apt-cache search should show it in the repos | 08:53 |
| bauke | mohi: by the way: try to use pastebin for all output. This keeps the channel clean :-) | 08:53 |
| Roshan | prince: yeah I just found that out | 08:53 |

| Roshan | prince: thats not good then | 08:53 |
| bazhang | Roshan: unless you are comfortable fixing X from the command line then stay far far away from envy ;] | 08:54 |
| bauke | mohi: try to make the kconfig file and leave it empty, Or install it as an application from the repositories | 08:54 |

| prince_jammys | Roshan: here's another trick. autocomplete nicknames by using tab after typing the first few characters (eg prin<tab>) . your message is only highlighted on my end if you use the full nickname | 08:54 |

| HighNo | bazhang: blue is vga normally | 09:03 |
| magnetron | Ububegin: did you configure to "bind" to a specific network adapter? include the lo interface if possible | 09:03 |
| HighNo | bazhang: white is dvi | 09:03 |

| bazhang | eagle83: you want to compile what exactly? you have build-essential installed? | 09:05 |
| Flynsarmy | bazhang: It should be Function+CRT/LCD but that isn't working for some reason | 09:05 |
| staii | greetings ! I think i have a problem. I have recently started using Ubuntu, and in order to install geany 0.13, i updated libc6 using a deb file, but now apt-get reports "unmet dependencies" and wants to remove 1056 packages including some essential ones ! What can i do? | 09:06 |
| bazhang | Flynsarmy: what about in the control panel for monitors? checked there yet? | 09:06 |
| Ububegin | magnetron: hmm, what shld i google under, do find the neccesary resources..to do what u said | 09:06 |
| Roshan | heres a question: is it fairly easy to get WoW to work under wine? | 09:06 |
| Flynsarmy | bazhang: I went to system - admiistration - screens and graphics but thats useless for all but breaking my xorg.conf | 09:07 |
| bazhang | Roshan: there have been reports of success yes; you can also check the #winehq appdb for more info on that | 09:07 |
| bazhang | staii: libc6 from where? Hardy? or what version | 09:08 |
| Roshan | bazhang: what does #winehq appdb do? and where do I type that? | 09:08 |
| futureproof | will virtualbox allow me to run windows in it as though it was a real installation? | 09:08 |
| sleepster | futureproof: ? | 09:08 |
| sleepster | futureproof: just use vmware | 09:08 |
| bazhang | http://appdb.winehq.org/ Roshan | 09:08 |
| staii | bazhang: i think so, from "https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/hardy/i386/libc6/2.7-5ubuntu2" | 09:09 |

| chipsa964 | im having issues getting my internal mic to work...can anyone offer any suggestions? | 09:09 |
| Ubuntu-Noob | argh this is driving me crazy | 09:09 |
| eagle83 | bazhang: build-essential is installed. I want to create a new kernel. I need a linux system, which reacts in Realtime. So I downloaded a new Kernel 2.6.22.12 from www.kernel.org. I extracted it, patched it, with the xenomai patch. Now I want to configure my new Kernel. The Tutorial wrote to use: make menuconfig. | 09:09 |
| sleepster | futureproof: vmware is a much more mature product. It is easier to install | 09:09 |
| Ubuntu-Noob | its still choppy even after ive reinstalled flash player | 09:09 |
| Ubuntu-Noob | =[[[ | 09:09 |
| futureproof | sleepster, is it free? | 09:09 |
| sleepster | futureproof: vmware server is | 09:09 |
| sleepster | futureproof: go to vmware.com download vmware server | 09:09 |

| Ubuntu-Noob | ye bazhang done that :/ | 09:10 |
| Ubuntu-Noob | still the same | 09:10 |
| sleepster | futureproof: virtualbox is fine.. but it is not the best | 09:10 |
| chipsa964 | bazhang, yes | 09:11 |
| sleepster | the best is either vmware or parallels | 09:11 |
| sleepster | vmware <- for windows/linux parallels <- for MAC | 09:11 |
| bazhang | chipsa964: and you want to use the livecd insteading of installing because... | 09:11 |

| Ububegin | there's also that virtual box .... | 09:12 |
| sleepster | xnnhermes9275657: why wouldn't it be? | 09:12 |
| chipsa964 | i kinda wanted to wait for my restore CDs to come in the mail before i do the full install | 09:12 |

| chipsa964 | so i can restore it back just in case i cant get everything to work in ubuntu | 09:12 |
| bazhang | Roshan: ask in #suse ;] | 09:12 |
| sleepster | staii: sudo apt-get install g++ | 09:12 |
| sleepster | staii: it gets libc6 too | 09:12 |
| sleepster | staii: what's your problem? | 09:13 |
| staii | sleepster: the problem is that i install libc6 from a deb file on launchpad, and now apt-get reports unmet dependencies | 09:13 |

| sleepster | staii: it comes with libc6 | 09:13 |

| Ubuntu-Noob | online vids r choppy and i cant sort it :( | 09:13 |
| xnnhermes9275657 | when i installed ubuntu or when i run any live cd i must choose the safe graphic mode or the screen will turn off any idea why? | 09:13 |
| staii | sleepster: is it safe to uninstall libc6 ? it will uninstall some 1000 packages including essential ones (like apt) | 09:13 |
| Ububegin | bazhang : :S ... what you said | 09:14 |
| sleepster | staii: oh.. hmm.. don't remove it.. but you said you didn't install it through apt | 09:14 |
| Roshan | what does alt+F2 do? is that some sort of a terminal too? | 09:14 |
| sleepster | staii: if you didn't install it through apt, then apt has no recollection that you've installed it | 09:14 |
| Flynsarmy | Roshan: Alt-F2 is the equivalent of 'run' on windows | 09:14 |
| staii | sleepster: yes, i downloaded a deb file, it automatically run the "package manager", how can i uninstall it ? | 09:15 |
| Flannel | staii: through a package manager. Synaptic will suffice | 09:15 |
| bazhang | staii: you fully backed up? | 09:15 |
| staii | bazhang: no, i am using linux for the first time today :) | 09:15 |

| adriaan | Hello ubuntu people. Which programme do you recommend for converting .rm (realmedia) to .mp4? | 09:16 |
| staii | Flannel: when i try to reinstall broken pacakges from synaptic, it also says it will remove 1000 packages | 09:16 |
| Andyz0r | Can I have some help please? I would like to change my default sound so audio comes out of my USB Headset instead of my speakers. | 09:16 |
| bazhang | staii: not a good idea to install random stuff from outside the ubuntu repositories if you are a newer user | 09:16 |
| magnetron | adriaan: maybe the ffmpeg in medibuntu supports it | 09:16 |
| staii | bazhang: i install it from launchpad, isn't it "official" ? | 09:16 |
| bazhang | staii: nay | 09:16 |
| adriaan | magnetron, I don't plan to switch distros just for that | 09:16 |
| Flannel | staii: Oh, broken package. What package did you try and install? | 09:16 |
| staii | bazhang: good to know ;) | 09:17 |
| magnetron | adriaan: it-s not another distro | 09:17 |
| staii | Flannel: libc6 | 09:17 |
| bazhang | hehe | 09:17 |
| adriaan | magnetron, is it installable then? | 09:17 |
| magnetron | adriaan: it's a repository you add to ubuntu | 09:17 |
| Flannel | staii: Why did you download it manually? | 09:17 |
| magnetron | !medibuntu | adriaan | 09:17 |
| ubotu | adriaan: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org | 09:17 |
| staii | bazhang: thing is, i want to fix everything now to get back running :) | 09:17 |
| adriaan | Thanks magnetron | 09:17 |
| staii | Flannel: i wanted to install geany 0.13, it required a new libc6 (as far as i understood) | 09:17 |
| magnetron | adriaan: remember to install ffmpeg after you have medibuntu | 09:18 |
| adriaan | magnetron, sure | 09:18 |
| neo_ | any good video editor for ubuntu? | 09:18 |
| Flannel | staii: changing libc6 versions is a *bad* idea. It more or less requires you to break your current system, because the rest of your system wants the older version | 09:18 |
| bazhang | neo_: yes | 09:18 |
| staii | Flannel: i see .. how can i revert it though ? | 09:18 |
| neo_ | bazhang: which one? | 09:19 |
| bazhang | staii: reinstall | 09:19 |
| staii | Flannel: i kind of realized it was a bad idea after i broke 1056 packages :P | 09:19 |
| Flannel | staii: geany is in hardy, you can backport it with prevu (see !prevu) | 09:19 |
| Flannel | staii: You need to install the older version. In a nutshell. | 09:19 |
| chipsa964 | bazhang: so does it matter if i do a full install or not? | 09:20 |
| bazhang | staii this is a fresh install so just reinstall and then do as Flannel suggests and get the backport | 09:20 |
| Andyz0r | Can I have some help please? I would like to change my default sound so audio comes out of my USB Headset instead of my speakers. | 09:20 |
| neo_ | bazhang: which one? | 09:20 |
| bazhang | neo_: what are you trying to achieve? | 09:20 |
| staii | bazhang: alright, just a question (to understand more), what is hardy exactly? | 09:20 |
| bazhang | staii the next version due out in 7 weeks | 09:21 |
| Flannel | staii: Its the upcoming release, still in its alpha stage | 09:21 |

| kimo_ | the 3D desktop didn't work with me | 09:24 |

| Squawk | GunnerKes, start upa terminal, and use "cd /path/to/the/direcotry", or else using the file browser, visit that particular directory. Then, look for the readme | 09:30 |

| sleepster | that is much better than running dual boot | 09:31 |
| sleepster | Linux_Fresher: not only is it easier to use vmware .. but it is safer and better | 09:31 |
| Linux_Fresher | sleepster: no .. i really dont want to do that .. i know about vmware and I know that nVidia drivers dont support virtual OS very well .. so lets skip vmware for the timebeing | 09:31 |
| timnik | Squawk, i.e. type "sl" into a terminal. I doubt you have it installed. It's a nice feature. | 09:31 |
| Squawk | timnik, im currently booted into gentoo, and I dont have that | 09:31 |
| timnik | Squawk, ah, :-) no worries | 09:32 |
| Squawk | sleepster, why would you advise emulation over dual booting? | 09:32 |
| sleepster | Linux_Fresher: fine... if you want to dual boot.. which I don't suggest... here is instructions: http://www.linuxdevcenter.com/pub/a/linux/2006/05/08/dual-boot-laptop.html | 09:32 |
| bazhang | sleepster: aye vmware does not do 3D games | 09:32 |
| sleepster | Squawk: with speedy processors and cheap RAM.. and excellent virtual solutions.. it is the best way | 09:32 |
| MagicDuck | Samus_Aran: I can't find it for the life of me... | 09:32 |
| * xanax` is using vmware and it's (imo) the best safer way to discover linux | 09:33 | |
| sleepster | Squawk: note that vmware does not emulate hardware | 09:33 |
| sleepster | Squawk: it IS running on your actual hardware | 09:33 |
| Squawk | Linux_Fresher, dual booting is easy enough, and ubuntu will pretty much discover you windows partition with no hassle | 09:33 |
| sleepster | bazhang: well he wants to run Linux inside windows.. why does he need 3d support? | 09:33 |
| Squawk | sleepster, emulation is still emulation, why do that rather than go for the full install? | 09:33 |
| bazhang | sleepster: he wants to play games | 09:33 |
| Ergo^ | Linux_Fresher : : what games do you want to run on your ubuntu that you had on windows ? | 09:33 |
| neo_ | thanks | 09:33 |
| HighNo | sleepster: it actually does emulate almost all hardware, only the processor is not emulated | 09:33 |
| Linux_Fresher | please let me finish my question .. the 5 GB partition which I want to assign to ubuntu .. now i also want to play games through wine after I install Ubuntu .. so the 5 GB partition should be formatted to ext3 or it HAS TO BE Fat 32 ? | 09:34 |
| neo_ | bazhang:thanks... | 09:34 |
| bazhang | np | 09:34 |
| Ergo^ | Linux_Fresher: : use ext3 | 09:34 |
| magnetron | Linux_Fresher: ext3 | 09:34 |
| Squawk | Linux_Fresher, ext3, but id just boot to windows to game | 09:34 |
| sleepster | full installs won't allow you to save snap shots.. you could only run 1 OS at a time | 09:34 |
| Ergo^ | hey, actually wine allows to play many games well - orangebox work jsut fine - just slower i guess | 09:35 |
| sleepster | if you install wrong software.. you have to go through the hassle of backing things up | 09:35 |
| Linux_Fresher | Squawk: well, wine appdb page lists all the games that i like / play and they work as per their website | 09:35 |
| bazhang | Linux_Fresher: aye for some games a dual boot as Squawk suggests would be good; if #winehq appdb has support for those games then that is another option | 09:35 |
| sleepster | for people that want to learn Linux and still want to run windows... it is defintely better to run a virtual machine | 09:35 |
| xanax` | sleepster, there's also : wubi | http://wubi.sourceforge.net | 09:35 |
| Linux_Fresher | bazhang: :) YoU !! good to c u again !! ^^ | 09:36 |
| HighNo | Ergo^: wine is typically not slower in most cases - because it does not emulate things, in fact some games even run (slightly) faster because the overhead is less than on windows machines... | 09:36 |
| Linux_Fresher | bazhang: so whats your verdict ? i go vmware or i go duel boot !! | 09:36 |
| GunnerKes | Squawk, there no readme | 09:36 |
| GunnerKes | ne ideas? | 09:36 |
| sleepster | Linux_Fresher: I am tellinng you.. you're going to be sorry dual booting.. | 09:36 |
| sleepster | Linux_Fresher: you're wasting half your resources | 09:36 |
| Squawk | GunnerKes, how did you install the package. did you do ./cofigure make make install? | 09:36 |
| bazhang | Linux_Fresher: depends on the games; check this link and see what you think: http://appdb.winehq.org/ | 09:36 |
| Linux_Fresher | sleepster: how am i wasting half resources ? | 09:37 |
| MagicDuck | got it | 09:37 |
| xanax` | Linux_Fresher, I would give linux a try with vmware first. Then (later), you should dual-boot | 09:37 |
| Ergo^ | HighNo : - i would argue about that - especially in case of directx9 ;-) but yeah im quite surprised some titles i tested work so well | 09:37 |
| Linux_Fresher | bazhang: yup checked there , all games that I play are nicely listed there as 'working well' | 09:37 |
| Squawk | sleepster, so my triple boot system is wasting my resources? tell me how? Personaly I dont want windows anywhere even close to my linux install | 09:37 |
| sleepster | Linux_Fresher: when yo dual boot, only 1 OS is running at a time.. | 09:37 |
| GunnerKes | flashplayer-installer | 09:37 |
| GunnerKes | i ran that in a terminal | 09:37 |
| sleepster | Squawk: you are wasting resources... you are either running 1 OS or the other.. | 09:37 |
| flowOver | sleepster: i personally consider running a vm wasting half your resources | 09:37 |
| Squawk | GunnerKes, oh, in that case "man flashplayer-installer" | 09:37 |
| bazhang | Linux_Fresher: then just go that route and forget dual booting or vmware--using wine does it for you then great | 09:37 |
| flowOver | and VM's don't do directx or any other kind of hardware acceleration | 09:38 |
| Linux_Fresher | okies, this Live CD can install ubuntu in vmware or i have to download some other ubuntu version ? | 09:38 |
| GunnerKes | ye squawk | 09:38 |
| sleepster | the best solution is to run a stable OS as your host (Linux) and a potential insecure, buggy OS as your guest (Windows) | 09:38 |
| Squawk | sleepster, you "could" argue that I am losing functionality, you can't say I am wasting resources | 09:38 |
| GunnerKes | so how i get rid :) | 09:38 |
| lancerocke | Hi | 09:38 |
| flowOver | i've got a VM attached to my windows dual boot. i rarely use the vm though. i usually boot in when i need it | 09:38 |
| flowOver | and running a vm cut's off whatever resources that you assign to it. you can't share resources between the host and vm | 09:39 |
| xanax` | Linux_Fresher, install vmware player, and find a ubuntu appliance | 09:39 |
| sleepster | With virtualization technology integrated into Intel boards.. you are actually running your OS on your hardware | 09:39 |
| NeT_DeMoN_ | how do i fix my numpad from wanting to be a keyboard? | 09:39 |
| Squawk | GunnerKes, as I say "man flashplayer-installer", it will tell you in the man page somewhere. Probably something like flashplayer-install --uninstall or similar | 09:39 |
| lancerocke | I was wondering if anyone could tell me how to automount a disk that seems to not be mounted every time i restart | 09:39 |
| lancerocke | its an NTFS disk | 09:39 |
| Linux_Fresher | bazhang: well, duel boot is mandatory, unless i become good at linux, practically i cant let go of windows just yet [though i want to] .. because if i get stuck at something in linux which was easily possible in windows, i start hating linux .. dont want that to happen this time | 09:39 |
| Squawk | lancerocke, put the "auto" option in /etc/fstab for that partition | 09:39 |
| kimo_ | please any one | 09:39 |
| kimo_ | can answer m e | 09:39 |
| NeT_DeMoN_ | oh wow, my question made no sence | 09:39 |
| flowOver | only if the software allows for it, and also it still doesn't allow for directx support | 09:40 |
| sleepster | Linux_Fresher: why don't you try using a virtual machine first.. if you don't like it.. just remove it and dual boot | 09:40 |
| * NeT_DeMoN_ corrects it | 09:40 | |
| kimo_ | i really need to activate the | 09:40 |
| kimo_ | 3D desktop | 09:40 |
| lancerocke | Squawk: how do i do that? | 09:40 |
| sleepster | Linux_Fresher: it is easier to do the vmware approach first and change to a dual boot.. than the other way around | 09:40 |
| NeT_DeMoN_ | how can i fix my numpad from wanting to be a mouse? | 09:40 |
| Squawk | Linux_Fresher, give it a short ammount of time, and you will be fine. I boot to windows to play games, and thats it | 09:40 |
| kimo_ | and it didn't work | 09:40 |
| Linux_Fresher | sleepster: i think u r right .. i have biased bad opinion about vmware, i should give it a try .. is it free ? | 09:40 |
| bazhang | Linux_Fresher: then I would go with what Squawk was saying and do it that way--many folks do and no shame ;] | 09:40 |
| mzuverink | Anyone want to help out with a desktop myth install, it wont seem to recognize my hauppaguge 150 dvr | 09:40 |
| sleepster | Linux_Fresher: vmware is free | 09:40 |
| mzuverink | I would qppreciqte hlp | 09:40 |
| sleepster | Linux_Fresher: vmware server | 09:40 |
| Linux_Fresher | cool .. i guess .. browsing to that site now .. brb | 09:40 |
| flowOver | and all this talk about ubuntu being stable is silly. i've never seen it stable out of the box. it always needs some tweaking to get there and even then x buggers up once you've been surfing the web for a while | 09:41 |
| === HashBox_ is now known as HashBox | ||
| Ergo^ | i actualy find virtualbox better than vmware | 09:41 |
| Squawk | lancerocke, "sudo gedit /etc/fstab", and then on the line refering to your ntfs partition, add the "auto" options | 09:41 |
| Ergo^ | at least for running debian on windows host | 09:41 |
| [Hardy]TuTUXG | Ergo^, that's not news | 09:41 |
| bazhang | flowOver: hmm rock solid here | 09:41 |
| lancerocke | Squawk: thanks | 09:41 |
| xanax` | Linux_Fresher, http://www.vmware.com/appliances | 09:41 |
| Ergo^ | i think it was more responsive on virtualbox | 09:41 |
| flowOver | bazhang: it's a hardware dependant phenomenon | 09:41 |
| flowOver | hit or miss | 09:41 |
| Squawk | flowOver, actualy I find it amusing how often "reboot is suggested after software installs for ubuntu", when all that should be required is to restart the application. Certainly I never wan't to reboot unless I want a new kernel | 09:42 |
| lancerocke | Squawk: sudo gedit /etc/fsta gives me an empty file | 09:42 |
| bazhang | flowOver: very true; which is why I shopped for this box after many hours on teh google ;] | 09:42 |
| flowOver | i've heard of all these stable setups. i've plugged ubuntu onto many boxes and have never seen it though | 09:42 |
| Ergo^ | btw, if i do ctrl +F4 and i get out of x to console - how do i get back to x ? | 09:42 |
| lancerocke | Squawk: there is nothing in the file | 09:42 |
| Squawk | lancerocke, but a b on the end | 09:42 |
| sleepster | Ergo^: vmware is a much more mature product.. | 09:42 |
| Linux_Fresher | ok !! Ubuntu 7.10 gutsy gibbon is most downloaded one .. i just need that or i need the basic vmware too ? | 09:42 |
| sleepster | Ergo^: it's been out much longer | 09:42 |
| sleepster | Linux_Fresher: download/install vmware server | 09:42 |
| bazhang | Linux_Fresher: depends on you; best not to get technical right off the bat | 09:43 |
| flowOver | Squawk: i really hate rebooting in the middle of my using a computer. i really don't get what is so much better about linux other than the freedom of information part | 09:43 |
| xanax` | vmware server ? | 09:43 |
| Ergo^ | sleepster : and what does that proove ? ;-) tirewd both - both worked ok for me - but i think using open source is better if they both do the trick just fine | 09:43 |
| sleepster | Linux_Fresher: you will need Ubuntu 7.10 CD image | 09:43 |
| timmysmith | Woooooot!!!! I just tried out 8.04 alpha6 and finally after many years of hoping and waiting my computer boots out of the box without freezing when my video card is installed and my USB wifi adapter works out of the box. 8.04 rocks!! | 09:43 |
| sleepster | Ergo^: I guess :) | 09:43 |
| xanax` | sleepster, vmware server or player ? why "server" ? | 09:43 |
| Linux_Fresher | sleepster: yup that i have on my HD .. didnt delete it after burning a dvd | 09:43 |
| flowOver | xanax`: only server will create vm's | 09:43 |
| sleepster | xanax`: vmware player ONLY allows you to play an image that is already created | 09:43 |
| bazhang | timmysmith: tell the folks in #ubuntu+1 thanks ;] | 09:43 |
| patrickva | I'm waiting until the stable release on April 24th. | 09:43 |
| sleepster | xanax`: he needs server to create it | 09:43 |
| Ergo^ | ok, how do you get back to X from console ? | 09:43 |
| flowOver | xanax`: you can get player and just create vm's with other tools though | 09:44 |
| flowOver | it's lighter imo | 09:44 |
| xanax` | ok | 09:44 |
| sleepster | the best solution is workstation | 09:44 |
| flowOver | http://www.easyvmx.com/ | 09:44 |
| timmysmith | bazhang: I will, and sorry for even mentioning it in this channel but I figured others might want to see if their stuff is finally supported and I'm also just so darn happy. | 09:44 |
| Linux_Fresher | sleepster: dude, why u keep saying vmware server ? shount u be saying vmware client ? | 09:44 |
| Squawk | flowOver, stability (if you have it set up right), user security (ie, not doing things as root), stands compliance, and the fact that you can install everything (just about) using operating system native tools, rather than third party installers. Then, you have access to every part of the system, you can configure it to your liking, or completely bugger it up, all without restriction. In short, freedom | 09:44 |
| sleepster | if you feel gutsy.. you could download the workstation and *cought* find a *cought* serial *cough* key somewhere | 09:44 |
| Linux_Fresher | sleepster: rather desktop virtualization category | 09:44 |
| Linux_Fresher | sleepster: mine is a pc, not a server | 09:45 |
| bazhang | timmysmith: trust me I'm happy too (got it installed) but offtopic here ;] | 09:45 |
| sleepster | Linux_Fresher: what's your ethnicity? | 09:45 |
| Ergo^ | sleepster: : i had a bunch of serials generated for server - its free on vmware site | 09:45 |
| flowOver | yeah true. the freedom is awesome. but windows can be stable with tweaking as well | 09:45 |
| sleepster | Linux_Fresher: I don't understand your lingo man | 09:45 |
| Ergo^ | for some reason the new ones i generated from their doesnt work | 09:45 |
| Linux_Fresher | sleepster: erm .. gotta check that on dictionary.com | 09:45 |
| Ergo^ | i think server is free , i dont like the workstation | 09:45 |
| Linux_Fresher | sleepster: well, i am real bad at english =/ | 09:45 |
| bazhang | !ot | folks! | 09:45 |
| ubotu | folks!: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! | 09:45 |
| flowOver | i'm not going back, but all this stability preaching is kind of a moot point when it's only a portion of experienced users see it | 09:45 |
| Ergo^ | anyways - vmware id 200 mb :D | 09:45 |
| Ergo^ | virutalbox is 15 mb | 09:45 |
| Ergo^ | :D | 09:46 |
| Squawk | flowOver, windows suffers from being virus prone, and because everyone runs it as administrator, one bad software install and your system is compromised. Plus, did you ever use an external machine to see all the packets coming out of the box. A windows box broadcasts like no other | 09:46 |
| Linux_Fresher | sleepster: can i please pm you ? i think we are disturbing the main channel | 09:46 |
| sleepster | flowOver: I've never seen a stable windows machine.. | 09:46 |
| sleepster | flowOver: maybe if it never hits the network | 09:46 |
| flowOver | funny. i've never seen a stable ubuntu machine ;) | 09:46 |
| bazhang | offtopic people... | 09:46 |
| kalimons | Who applied on the main catch in a film the eye before jessica alba? please help | 09:46 |

| Linux_Fresher | sleepster: well ? can i ? | 09:47 |
| bazhang | kalimons: wrong channel for that ;] | 09:47 |
| sleepster | there is a reason why I always run Windows in a VM | 09:47 |
| sleepster | Linux_Fresher: I have to go soon.. but sure | 09:47 |
| Ergo^ | online for 2-3 weeks , but that was my home pc , not a server | 09:47 |
| flowOver | i run it with enough resources for photoshop | 09:47 |
| kalimons | bazhang do u know a channel where i can get a help ? | 09:47 |
| * bazhang gives up | 09:47 | |
| flowOver | i like photoshop in the vbox better than wine personally | 09:47 |
| bazhang | kalimons: not here sorry | 09:48 |
| Linux_Fresher | Ergo^: yup .. this windows XP edition has been up and running , using net for last 2 years , regular updates + good firewall + good antivirus + good antispyware = stable .. but then again, who wants to pay for all that when there is linux .. thats why i am thinking of shifting .. also, now games work in linux through wine .. atleast those which i play :) | 09:48 |
| ApOgEE- | hmmm | 09:48 |
| sleepster | kalimons: have you talked to Google? Google is a bit of an ass.. but he can be helpful | 09:48 |
| bazhang | http://www.imdb.com/ kalimons | 09:48 |

| NeT_DeMoN_ | can anyone help me with my numberpad problem? | 09:48 |
| sleepster | yeah.. Google isn't cool anymore | 09:48 |
| kalimons | i need get answer to that question and i win 10 ticket to cinema | 09:49 |
| NeT_DeMoN_ | the keys move the cursor instead of entering numbers | 09:49 |
| sleepster | NeT_DeMoN_: what's your problem? | 09:49 |
| sleepster | NeT_DeMoN_: enable numlock | 09:49 |
| NeT_DeMoN_ | it is | 09:49 |
| sleepster | disable numlock | 09:49 |
| kalimons | Does anywan knows a channel where can help about movies? | 09:49 |
| NeT_DeMoN_ | your the fifth person to tell me that | 09:49 |
| NeT_DeMoN_ | it does the same thing | 09:49 |
| sleepster | what application is doing that NeT_DeMoN_ | 09:49 |
| NeT_DeMoN_ | i was messing with the keyboard setting ealrier | 09:50 |
| NeT_DeMoN_ | sleepster: everything | 09:50 |
| Ergo^ | flowOver: : you need to have windows license to run photoshop virtualized | 09:50 |
| Ergo^ | on latest wine it runs not bad at all btw. maybe not the best experience in the world but its workable | 09:50 |
| Ergo^ | on CS2 it does even support utf8 charcters :D | 09:51 |
| NeT_DeMoN_ | wine has actually improved since december | 09:51 |
| NeT_DeMoN_ | it crashes less | 09:51 |

| unicum | hi, i have trouble with my keyboard settings. momentarily i use shift + alt to switch groups (keyboard = de / keyboard = en). when this option is turned on i can also use shift + alt + page up/down to swith forth and back through pages in firefox. if i turn this option off the firefox option isn't available anymore eihter | 09:59 |
| icesword | mutable, without gui,yeah,not sure,i am sure there is one,the redhat one | 09:59 |
| Squawk | lancerocke, I know you do, but you said it doesnt mount automaticaly, which I took to mean that you can mount it manualy. Are you saying you can't mount that partition at all? | 09:59 |
| sleepster | before I help you.. I just want to know what unicum means | 09:59 |

| gafatoa | hello guys ! My xorg.conf defines 3 modes: 1680x1050, 1024x768 and 800x600. With xrandr I can switch to any of them without problem. The issue is that gnome allways starts with the 1024x768 rather than 1680x1050 ... Does anyone have an idea ? | 10:01 |

| unicum | okay anyway you can set different keyboard layouts, like english, german, dvorak, right | 10:04 |
| lancerocke | Squawk: its my other windows ntfs drive for sure. I want it to be called sda(something, whatever is next and not taken) so as not to be confusing | 10:04 |
| unicum | i use alt + alt gr to switch between them usually | 10:04 |
| sleepster | AmirCyber: you are running 7.10? | 10:05 |
| unicum | i use english for typing, but if someone else uses my comp they use german, because the keyboard itself is german | 10:05 |
| AmirCyber | sleepster: yeah | 10:05 |
| sleepster | I just installed it on my own machine just now | 10:05 |
| sleepster | AmirCyber: you typed exactly this? sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-new | 10:05 |
| Squawk | lancerocke, hehe ok. Well, put this in your fstab. (its gonna be sdb since its a second hard drive). "/dev/sdb1 /media/sdb1 ntfs defaults 0 0" | 10:06 |
| unicum | so.. if i unly have the option * use alt + alt gr turned on somehow i can't use shift + alt + page up/down in firefox to switch through pages (pages i already had within one tab) | 10:06 |
| AmirCyber | sleepster :yes | 10:06 |
| Squawk | lancerocke, but if I was you I would change the mount points to be something like /media/window2 and /media/windows1 to make them more easily identifiable. But do that after you have it working | 10:06 |
| unicum | if i turn on * shift + alt to switch groups then i can use this keyboard shortcut in firefox, but also switch the keyboard layout all the time | 10:06 |
| unicum | does this explanation make any sense? | 10:07 |
| Squawk | lancerocke, you can pastebin me the fstab again if you want me to check it | 10:07 |
| sleepster | AmirCyber: try installing nvidia-glx | 10:07 |

| MagicDuck | comp5_: start synaptic, then do a search (Name and Description) for "hp printer". The hpijs stuff will probably be enough. Try installing that and see if it works | 10:18 |
| sean__ | otg | 10:19 |
| Squawk | neo_, ok put it this way. Lets say you have a file that has the numbers 1-9 in it, but it has thousands of instances of each, all mixed up. Compression could be used to store them more efficiently, so wherever you encounter a patter, for example, 13562 (you refer to that pattern as "pattern1") and store "pattern1 instead". Or if you have a line of 150 1's, you just store one "1" and then a command to repeat it 150 times | 10:19 |

| Waffles385 | what kind of router do you have? | 10:35 |
| prince_jammys | Corky_: the thing is that you already have a /usr partition, so it's tricky | 10:35 |

| Waffles385 | Linux_Fresher, I would go with the official one since its official... unless you know you need something on the Ultimate Edition why get it | 10:35 |
| prince_jammys | Corky_: not partition, i mean you have a /usr | 10:35 |

| Linux_Fresher | Waffles385: well ? | 10:38 |
| Waffles385 | Just wondering if it could be a problem with the routers DHCP not working | 10:38 |
| prince_jammys | Corky_: you could create a partition on another disk, copy your current /usr to that partition, and then have that partition mounted as /usr | 10:38 |
| Waffles385 | Linux_Fresher, I just said i dont know much about installin apps to a different partition | 10:38 |
| Corky_ | tricky | 10:38 |
| Linux_Fresher | erm lol must have missed it .. anyone else ? | 10:39 |
| Corky_ | but im sure i'll figure it out i guess | 10:39 |
| vxe0 | no | 10:39 |
| prince_jammys | Corky_: in other words, copy the contents of /usr in your ubuntu installation to the new partition, and then mount that as /usr | 10:39 |
| Corky_ | oh | 10:39 |
| prince_jammys | makes sense? | 10:39 |
| Linux_Fresher | Corky_ .. like in windows, can u not just give another path to another hard drive ? | 10:39 |
| Corky_ | well that doesnt sound too hard | 10:39 |
| Corky_ | log on as root i suppose | 10:39 |
| prince_jammys | Corky_: and even that may be too fancy. there might be a simpler way | 10:39 |
| Corky_ | Linux_Fresher i've never seen that option when install programs in linux | 10:40 |
| icesword | prince_jammys, why cannot he resize partitions | 10:40 |
| Corky_ | the package manager just does it for me | 10:40 |

| icesword | ! hostname > bosanac | 10:41 |
| Corky_ | i've put countless amounts of hours into getting it working the way i want | 10:41 |
| Waffles385 | Corky_, what about expanding your current partition? | 10:41 |
| Linux_Fresher | Corky_: yup.. this time i am going to give linux a full try .. how so ever i try though, i cant stop comparing it to windows concepts .. thats a BIG hold back | 10:41 |
| prince_jammys | Corky_: this really can be done, and probably in a simpler way than what i said | 10:41 |
| Corky_ | i wanted to do that but it wont let me resize my windows partition | 10:41 |
| Waffles385 | Corky_, did you try resizing in windows first? | 10:42 |
| Corky_ | erm | 10:42 |
| Corky_ | not really | 10:42 |
| Waffles385 | Shrink the windows partition down so there is some unpartitioned space | 10:42 |
| Waffles385 | just a thought | 10:42 |
| Corky_ | i was using Norton Partition Magic | 10:42 |
| icesword | good start | 10:42 |
| Linux_Fresher | Corky_: may be something like /user2 on new HD that u have with big space ? [ though its FUNNY to know that linux pkg doesnt ask you for the path where it wants to get installed .. all windows application setups do that >.< ] | 10:43 |
| Corky_ | i tried to make my windows partition smaller but it wouldnt let me resize the linux partition :S | 10:43 |
| Waffles385 | Corky_, are you saying in windows it didnt or the Ubuntu utility didnt? | 10:43 |
| Corky_ | lemme see if the package manager has an option | 10:43 |
| icesword | Linux_Fresher, good idea | 10:43 |
| damir_ | hi! Is it possible to change the mouse driver from "synaptics" to "mouse" without exiting X-server? I need to switch between them and don't want to logout each time. | 10:43 |
| prince_jammys | Corky_: here's one example http://yavin4.anshul.info/2006/07/17/moving-usr-to-another-partition/ | 10:43 |
| Corky_ | in windows it wouldnt let me resize the linux partition | 10:44 |
| Linux_Fresher | icesword: .. ThAnKs !! btw which 1 was a good idea ? :P | 10:44 |
| Corky_ | in linux it wouldnt let me resize the windows partition | 10:44 |
| Waffles385 | Try resizing one at a time | 10:44 |
| icesword | Linux_Fresher, that /usr2 | 10:44 |
| Waffles385 | cause you gotta make space for it first | 10:44 |
| Corky_ | time consuming but what the heck, i'll give it a try | 10:44 |
| damir_ | Corky_: zou need to unmount the partition before resizing/moving it | 10:44 |
| Corky_ | i did try that | 10:45 |
| Waffles385 | vxe0, you still there? | 10:45 |
| damir_ | oh, in windows. sorry. Probably the application you're using doesnt support ext2/3 | 10:45 |
| Linux_Fresher | icesword: omg .. i have to shut up .. it was a lucky freaky chance .. i am not even a toddler in unix .. i am here since yesterday because i am so scared to hit that install button to get ubuntu on my hard drive from this Live CD session .. yesterday i almost burnt my fingers with dataloss .. thanks to this channel that i was saved | 10:45 |
| Corky_ | hey my laptop has one of those hidden partitions. i think its got windows drivers and stuff. do i need it? cos everytime i had a problem, the guys who fixed my laptop didnt even know it was there or what to do with it | 10:46 |
| seanbello | how do i start X grafical interface? | 10:46 |
| Corky_ | so no one ever used it | 10:46 |
| Waffles385 | Corky_, it might have came from the manufacture | 10:46 |
| Corky_ | it did | 10:46 |
| Waffles385 | Instead of sending out repair disks and stuff like that, they put those partitions on | 10:46 |
| prince_jammys | Corky_: is /usr really what's taking up all the space? | 10:46 |
| Linux_Fresher | Corky_: that one i know for sure .. its in documentation that comes with live CD .. those partitions are NOT ACCESSIBLE to windows and are used for DATA RECOVERY when windows goes south .. RECOMMENDATION = DO NOT TOUCH those partitions | 10:47 |
| Corky_ | yeah /usr is taking up space | 10:47 |
| icesword | Linux_Fresher, i see,maybe your idea is good, i haven't tried /usr2 ,hehe,linux has many choices windows doesn;t have | 10:47 |
| Waffles385 | you should be able to call whoever built your comp, tell them youre messing with the boot sector and repartition the hard drive and all that, they might send you a disk | 10:47 |
| seanbello | how do i start X grafical interface? | 10:47 |
| Corky_ | yeah but Linux_Fresher, everytime my windows went south the repair guy never knew about that partition | 10:47 |
| icesword | seanbello, startx? | 10:47 |
| Waffles385 | which is nice cause you can't accidentally screw up a disc | 10:47 |
| Corky_ | i told him it was there and he was like wtf | 10:47 |
| Linux_Fresher | icesword: but .. its so easy in windows to change path to install applications .. like if my C:\ is full, i just say D:\ or E:\ or whatever , is it very difficult to achieve in linux ? | 10:47 |
| Corky_ | i dnt think he knew much about that stuff tho | 10:48 |
| Linux_Fresher | Corky_: ya but ubuntu documentation says leave those special partitions alone .. so i would :) | 10:48 |
| prince_jammys | Linux_Fresher: no. what he wants to do is special | 10:48 |
| Waffles385 | was he from your manufacture? | 10:48 |
| Corky_ | ok | 10:48 |
| Corky_ | nope he wasnt | 10:48 |
| Waffles385 | That could be why | 10:48 |
| seanbello | says i'm not athorized | 10:48 |
| Linux_Fresher | prince_jammys: ah .. thats a relief :) | 10:48 |
| Corky_ | yup | 10:48 |
| icesword | Linux_Fresher, linux is also easy,you know windows records its path in regedit,linux usually in /etc | 10:48 |
| === no0tic is now known as gioppo | ||
| Corky_ | i like linux more than windows | 10:48 |
| prince_jammys | Linux_Fresher: you had a bad experience, but data loss is extremely rare. there's really very little risk in installing ubuntu | 10:49 |
| Linux_Fresher | icesword: yup .. though how so ever hard i try not to, windows concepts refuse to go away from my brain .. this makes learning linux for me difficult .. I have to learn linux as if its the first OS of my life .. then only i will be good at it | 10:49 |
| Waffles385 | Does anyone know why fglrxinfo would show Mesa after updating ATI drivers? | 10:49 |
| icesword | Linux_Fresher, good luck! | 10:50 |
| Corky_ | ubuntu is probably also easier to fix than windows if u got access to forums | 10:50 |
| Linux_Fresher | icesword: lol hell i surely need it .. thanks :) | 10:50 |

| rhineheart_m | I am running ubuntu gutsy server edition. I just want to ask if there's a script or software for ubuntu that will show the server status and information to the public in a safe way that can be accessed through http. | 10:51 |
| Corky_ | Linux_Fresher i thought the same thing too but now i got linux concepts stuck in my brain :S | 10:51 |
| Corky_ | i even hate booting windows now | 10:51 |
| Linux_Fresher | prince_jammys: Linux_Fresher: you had a bad experience, but data loss is extremely rare. there's really very little risk in installing ubuntu = I almost lost all data yesterday .. was saved by filthpig in this channel | 10:51 |
| seanbello | how do i start X grafical interface?won't work with startx---it says:X: user not authorized to run the X server, aborting. | 10:52 |
| seanbello | Couldnt get a file descriptor referring to the console | 10:52 |
| Nereos_ | crogt/j #ubuntu-fr | 10:52 |
| Nereos_ | woops sorry :) | 10:52 |
| prince_jammys | Corky_: so it would go something like this: 1. use gparted to create a partition in your other drive . 2. boot into recovery mode 3. mount the new drive and copy the entire contents of /usr into the new partition. 4 once you verify that all the files are there, delete the contents of /usr (the scary part) 5. create an entry in fstab for your new partition, to be mounted in /usr | 10:52 |
| icesword | rhineheart_m, yeah,great idea,i remember a site,it is a linux distro site,gentoo or pentoo what ? i don't remember,but it is a England one,i am sure | 10:53 |
| Corky_ | thx | 10:53 |
| Corky_ | i'll go try that | 10:53 |
| Waffles385 | seanbello, if it says user not authorized, try using sudo infront of it | 10:53 |
| Linux_Fresher | prince_jammys: was 1 click away from losing it all m8 .. some warning messages are MUST and are not present in installation program .. filthpig said he is going to report some stuff about it | 10:53 |
| Waffles385 | it will ask for your administrator password though | 10:53 |
| icesword | rhineheart_m, that site has a very good example | 10:53 |
| messju | hi, is it possible to restart xgl without losing the xsession? | 10:53 |
| Nereos_ | hi | 10:53 |
| icesword | rhineheart_m, you got me | 10:53 |
| prince_jammys | Corky_: be careful, and look online for examples, because i just spat that out. i may have missed a detail, but you get the idea | 10:53 |
| Corky_ | i'll try resizing again | 10:54 |
| Corky_ | just dnt feel like using windows rite now :( | 10:54 |
| seanbello | thx waffle! | 10:54 |
| prince_jammys | Linux_Fresher: yeah i remember now, i was here | 10:54 |
| Linux_Fresher | Corky_: you are right there !! once u boot into ubuntu, its very hard to go back to windoz .. things look so great here :) | 10:55 |
| Corky_ | yeah | 10:55 |
| Corky_ | and i got my ubuntu lookin all fancy | 10:55 |
| rhineheart_m | icesword: yeah...where could I get it? | 10:55 |
| Linux_Fresher | Corky_: lol since yesterday i have been on this Live CD thing ^^ .. it didnt even ask me for a gateway .. directly started my internet by talking to my router i guess | 10:55 |
| branko | i'm planning to buy PCI sata controller, can I be 99.9% sure that it will work on ubuntu? (never mind if it's hard to set up, i'm interested if it's supported at all for start)? | 10:55 |
| listeper | Anyone with a good guide on how to install LAMP on Ubuntu 10.7? | 10:55 |
| sybariten | excuse me, but are there any germans here now? | 10:55 |
| Corky_ | its like dating a model and then going out with some fat girl :S | 10:55 |
| Linux_Fresher | prince_jammys: yup... without warning it wanted to write ubuntu on all the USED space of my NTFS partition .. that would have been real bad | 10:56 |
| mip_ | though ubuntu automatically adds the operating systems to grub menu. How do I regenerate the menu.lst with new operating systems added to the system | 10:56 |
| sybariten | listeper: doesnt LAMP come as an apt package? | 10:56 |
| icesword | rhineheart_m, forum.ubuntu.org.cn.it has the 100 linux distro,all i remember it is a England distro,sorry | 10:56 |
| jetscreamer | grep the .config banko, /boot/config.... see also kmuto | 10:56 |
| listeper | sybariten, cant find it in the package manager. | 10:56 |
| jetscreamer | [04.56.39] <dpkg> extra, extra, read all about it, driver locator is To work out what module you need to load for your pci card, try pasting lspci -n into http://kmuto.jp/debian/hcl/ . | 10:56 |
| prince_jammys | Linux_Fresher: ahh i see. well now you have that experience. i say go for it | 10:56 |
| Corky_ | maybe u dnt have the repository for it | 10:56 |
| Nereos_ | how can I copy files into another internal hard with havin the permission to do it ? lol | 10:56 |
| icesword | hoho,cp | 10:57 |
| prince_jammys | interesting question | 10:57 |
| listeper | sybariten, Not even in synaptic, but if you have some advice, let me know. I'm pretty new at Ubuntu. | 10:57 |
| Linux_Fresher | prince_jammys: yup .. downloading vmware atm .. safer, plus filthpig is going to report addition of some warning msgs to installation program .. so other people would be safe too | 10:57 |
| Corky_ | listeper. maybe u dnt have the repository for it | 10:57 |
| rhineheart_m | icesword: ows.. that's in chinese....anybody in the house knows where can I find a server monitoring script for ubuntu? | 10:58 |
| listeper | Corky_, could you please tell me the repository for it then? | 10:58 |
| sybariten | this is odd, i get like four hits for apt-cache search lamp, but i get like 50 hits for apt-cache search xamp...... | 10:58 |

| lordleemo | sybariten: in synaptics go to edit then mark packages by Taskel | 10:58 |
| prince_jammys | !lamp | sybariten | 10:58 |
| ubotu | sybariten: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP.

| sybariten | prince_jammys: yes... doesnt really explain my question mark though | 10:59 |
| prince_jammys | there is no lamp package | 10:59 |
| lessur | Can anyone help me with getting the latest Java to work with Ubuntu 7.10 ? Many Thanks | 10:59 |

| sybariten | prince_jammys: oh. i had a strong feeling i had seen such a package. | 11:03 |
| listeper | lordleemo, then i can seach them afterworth in synaptic? | 11:03 |
| icesword | rhineheart_m, http://info.shallax.com/index.php | 11:03 |
| prince_jammys | sybariten: if there is, i did it the hard way :) | 11:03 |
| Waffles385 | Linux_Fresher, you should be able to access the hard drives... open a text editor and try to save something to them | 11:03 |
| prince_jammys | sybariten: there is an easier way using "tasksel" but i've never used that | 11:03 |

| Waffles385 | Under Other Community Discussions, there is a Wine forum | 11:07 |

| prince_jammys | Linux_Fresher: but you still need the wine repository to be in your list, so that you can download and install it automatically | 11:14 |
| Linux_Fresher | prince_jammys: kk .. so first i have to install synaptic pkg .. then it will allow other repositories to be added to "add remove" menu .. something like that ? | 11:14 |
| prince_jammys | Linux_Fresher: synaptic should already be installed | 11:14 |
| staii | guys, anyone can help me grab geany0.12 please ? :) | 11:15 |

| geo__ | what to do? | 11:26 |
| thefish | geo__, run "sudo dpkg --configure -a" | 11:26 |
| Linux_Fresher | i typed 2 lines in terminal .. and both commands went well .. these were 1) wget -q http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/387EE263.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add - 2) sudo wget http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/sources.list.d/gutsy.list -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/winehq.list after 2nd command it downloaded some stuff and said OK .. no error messages | 11:27 |
| icesword | geo__, what is the command you used to upgrade | 11:27 |
| AutoMatriX | hi folks, is ther someone who can help me connecting my GPS (pda) to linux ? | 11:27 |
| AutoMatriX | which thing do I have to install ? | 11:27 |
| icesword | ! GPS | 11:27 |
| ubotu | Street mapping and GPS navigation software available for Ubuntu includes !GpsDrive (GTK, raster maps, free), !Roadnav (GTK, free vector maps from Tiger and OSM, free), !GoogleEarth (Qt, proprietary vector maps, proprietary) | 11:27 |
| ikkinu | I'm using 8.04, and I have a problem with, shares-admin, services-admin, *-admin: it says I could not authenticate; does anyone have the same problem or fixed it, or know how to solve it? | 11:27 |
| polter | ikkinu, have you checked out the authentication-post in the Administration-menu? | 11:28 |
| thefish | geo__, did you manage to run that command? you will have to do it in the terminal | 11:28 |
| polter | there is such a thing right? | 11:29 |
| polter | (I'm a bit tired :) | 11:29 |
| ikkinu | polter, what is authentication-post? | 11:29 |
| polter | ikkinu, a menu-post is what I mean | 11:29 |
| AutoMatriX | icesword, tx, but that doesn't help me much ... I've got an external USB antenna which works perfectly if I use gpsd 2.33, but I'd like to connect anotherone, which is in fact a PCA 5Mio C210) | 11:29 |
| ikkinu | polter, I can see "Authorizations" | 11:29 |
| polter | ikkinu, yeah that's what I meant! sorry | 11:29 |
| polter | :) | 11:29 |
| ikkinu | ok polter, I got it :) | 11:30 |
| polter | I'm not running 8.04 right now so I can't see it in front of me | 11:30 |
| === ka2u is now known as ka2zzzz | ||
| ikkinu | polter, now I should know what to do, isn't it? :p | 11:30 |
| geo_gr | hi when i am go to make updates it sais dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem | 11:30 |
| geo_gr | what to do please help me | 11:31 |
| Linux_Fresher | IT WORKED !! all i had to do was to hit the RELOAD button in synaptic :) :) :) | 11:31 |
| icesword | geo_gr, hi,did you try that command it told you | 11:31 |
| polter | geo_gr, open up att terminal and type "sudo dpkg --configure -a' | 11:31 |
| polter | ikkinu, well, I haven't really checked that out, but I think it allows you to set permissions and such.. so.. well.. :) | 11:31 |
| CHESHiRE | Hey is there a new release of ubuntu out yet | 11:32 |
| prince_jammys | Linux_Fresher: yes, and that's far more work than you will normally have to do. usually you will not need to add repositories | 11:32 |
| CHESHiRE | the one that comes with the latest nvidia driver | 11:32 |
| CHESHiRE | for the 3d desktop | 11:32 |
| ikkinu | thanks polter: I'll check after lunch :) | 11:32 |
| CHESHiRE | anyone ? | 11:33 |
| polter | CHESHiRE, nvidia-drivers are included in the repos | 11:33 |
| Linux_Fresher | prince_jammys: now when i double click it , it says it needs to install something more .. thats fine by me .. but then after i mark other things that it needs following error pops up ---> Depends: binfmt-support (>=1.1.2) but it is not installable | 11:33 |

| Linux_Fresher | prince_jammys: there is a BIG info message above too, it cant be copy pasted but i can quickly type it if u order so | 11:34 |
| polter | Linux_Fresher, are you getting any error-messages saying some repo couldn't be refreshed? | 11:35 |
| anolis | does anyone know anything about CUPS backend scripting? | 11:35 |
| LoLLo | olà , i've joined with xchat 10 servers and suddently the PC has reboot ! why ? | 11:35 |
| prince_jammys | Linux_Fresher: in synaptic, under settings, go to "repositories" | 11:35 |
| polter | LoLLo, well, that's kind of hard to answer without more detail | 11:35 |
| prince_jammys | Linux_Fresher: it should open a new window | 11:35 |
| Linux_Fresher | here goes on next line all the info it gave .. also, following prince_jammys's instructions at the same time | 11:36 |
| prince_jammys | Linux_Fresher: check all four boxes, if they aren't checked | 11:36 |
| geo | Upgrade from broken accerciser version detected, running scrollkeeper-rebuilddb... | 11:36 |
| Linux_Fresher | prince_jammys: yes, should i enable all possible repository downloads there ? | 11:36 |
| Linux_Fresher | prince_jammys: did it .. | 11:37 |
| prince_jammys | Linux_Fresher: ok close that window and try again | 11:37 |
| Linux_Fresher | prince_jammys: incidentally, this idea of repository is KICKASS .. it is really so good to have list of all related softwares at one place .. i bet windows doesnt have such same thing | 11:38 |
| danand | prince_jammys - don't forget the reload button in synaptics | 11:38 |
| arios | veryfied | 11:38 |
| csb | allocate resource program --- dmfe: system bus error happens cr5=fffffff when booting what does this mean? please help | 11:39 |
| Linux_Fresher | yup i am reloading it currently .. little slow connection here , will take a few mins to finish .. also dling vmware on other side | 11:39 |
| prince_jammys | Linux_Fresher: heh, definitely not. | 11:39 |
| Linux_Fresher | prince_jammys: more and more i stay here on ubuntu, more and more M$ is going away from their time tested customer !! :P | 11:39 |
| Linux_Fresher | prince_jammys: lol if i would have donated all the $s that I have given to Microsoft, linux would be surely around 3400$s richer by now !! [ games included ] | 11:40 |
| prince_jammys | Linux_Fresher: you won't have to do that repository thing again, now that you have enabled them. you'll only have to add repositories for certain select 3rd party unoffical stuff (if you ever want/need it) | 11:40 |
| prince_jammys | Linux_Fresher: sadly, there isn't nearly as much variety in games (yet) for linux | 11:41 |
| Linux_Fresher | prince_jammys: yup .. i got [ and loved ] the concept of repositories | 11:41 |
| Linux_Fresher | prince_jammys: omg !! i checked that wine appdb page .. almost ALL games which are good and famous work through wine bro | 11:41 |
| icesword | Linux_Fresher, you said 3400$,how is it | 11:41 |
| anolis | (except Lineage 2) | 11:42 |
| icesword | heheh | 11:42 |
| polter | Linux_Fresher, check out Wine-doors if that app can help you install things to wine | 11:42 |
| Linux_Fresher | icesword: i run a web cafe in partnership .. and cops keep raiding it to find if we use pirated version of windows | 11:42 |
| anolis | (and baulders gate 2) | 11:42 |
| prince_jammys | he bought 3 copies of photoshop | 11:42 |
| qos_ | hey guys ... i am trying to get my ipod running with ubuntu. i found a kernel module which seems to work fine... but i don't know what the author means with "location of your linux tree" in the following line: make -C <the location of your linuxtree> M=`pwd` modules | 11:42 |
| polter | qos_, are you sure you need to compile a kernel-module? | 11:43 |
| Linux_Fresher | icesword: so lots of $s went in to buy official windows XP copies .. dont want to do it all over again for crappy vista =) | 11:43 |
| anolis | Linux_Fresher, why are you using windows in an internet cafe? | 11:44 |
| qos_ | polter, http://de.pastebin.ca/931871 here is a copy of the tiny readme | 11:44 |
| revilodraw | exaile is the only program that plays my music very quietly, the rest work fine, but i prefer the feel of exaile. any ideas? | 11:44 |
| Linux_Fresher | icesword: may be in 6 months or so, i plan to convert all my cyber cafe comps onto ubuntu and still run a gamer's cafe .. basically counter strike, warcraft FT, starcraft , warhammer etc [ and all these games run through wine ] | 11:44 |
| anolis | ooohhh for games | 11:44 |
| polter | qos_, thats for the iphone? | 11:44 |
| icesword | Linux_Fresher, good news for you | 11:44 |
| Linux_Fresher | anolis: i am way 2 new to linux m8 , wasnt knowing I had a choice and have had a VERY bad experience with Mandrake back then [ but it was most probably my own lack of knowledge ] | 11:45 |
| qos_ | polter, yeah | 11:45 |
| Linux_Fresher | icesword: ya man, lots of $s which are not spent on M$ is total profit , so i can donate 30% of it to ubuntu if all goes well | 11:45 |
| polter | qos_, oh ok, you wrote ipod. | 11:45 |
| anolis | iunno yea.. you are probably gonna have to stick to windows until dev's start writing native code for linux for big brand games.. however quake and doom ahve native linux ports from Id software | 11:45 |
| polter | well, I think you can access your ipod using one of the many apps available | 11:46 |
| icesword | Linux_Fresher, yes,that is very good for open source community | 11:46 |
| qos_ | polter, i am sorry for that ^^ | 11:46 |
| loodjuret | is there a way to recover the password for your user on Ubuntu servers? like having it sent to your mailadress? | 11:46 |
| mandrig | Hey | 11:47 |
| mandrig | Can anyone tell me where I can get the "composite | 11:47 |
| mandrig | extension? | 11:47 |
| polter | mandana, composite extension? | 11:47 |
| Linux_Fresher | icesword: i hope so .. i know its not at all too much of money in total but its surely 30% of my own pure profit .. well, ethically its good i guess .. to give something because i would be getting free OS | 11:48 |
| polter | oops | 11:48 |
| polter | mandrig I meant to say | 11:48 |
| polter | mandrig, what are you looking to do? | 11:48 |
| csb | allocate resource program --- dmfe: system bus error happens cr5=fffffff when booting what does this mean? please help where have I to look at? | 11:48 |
| mandrig | polter, yes. When I go into Appearance Preferences and select a different visual effect, it say that 'the composite extension is not available' | 11:49 |
| polter | mandrig, are you using an nvidia-driver? | 11:49 |
| Linux_Fresher | icesword: plus all you guys who have been patiently helping a dunce like me, if u have websites, just give me the link in PM and I will make sure that sponcers on those sites get clicked everyday for next 7 days .. so 30 clicks per sponcer per day through my cafe | 11:49 |
| mandrig | polter, no, Ati, so radeon I guess | 11:49 |
| polter | mandrig, oh.. well it's an option to be changed in the xorg.conf file... | 11:50 |
| Linux_Fresher | hihihi !! friend just got slackware CDs !! he is gonna freak out when he sees this Ubuntu already up and running in Live CD !! xD brb | 11:51 |

| qos_ | ArthurArchnix, instructions are here http://de.pastebin.ca/931871, 2.6.22-14-generic, ubuntu 7.10 | 11:58 |
| Seveas | ThreeFingerPete, distcc, large calculations, tinkering | 11:58 |
| ThreeFingerPete | Seveas: thanks. i dont know what those are.. i guess i wouldnt find it useful! haha | 11:59 |
| ArthurArchnix | qos and what program are you using to manage your music? Rythmbox, exaile, amarok? | 11:59 |
| icesword | that pic is too cruel,i cannot even go to sleep tonight | 11:59 |
| Seveas | icesword, did you see what ubotu said half a page ago? | 11:59 |
| hischild | how can i run a program under a different user? | 11:59 |
| Seveas | hischild, with sudo | 11:59 |
| Seveas | sudo -H -u username_here /path/to/app | 12:00 |
| hischild | Seveas, sorry, i should clarify ... i want to run it from a script which is executed from contab | 12:00 |
| hischild | *crontab | 12:00 |
| ArthurArchnix | oh, qos_ You said " i am trying to get my ipod running with ubuntu", but you really want to get your iphone going. | 12:00 |
| icesword | Seveas, sorry,but i don't understand some site offers these pictures | 12:00 |
| csb | allocate resource program --- dmfe: system bus error happens cr5=fffffff when booting what does this mean? please help | 12:00 |
| ktz | xD | 12:00 |
| Seveas | hischild, simply add it to the correct crontab | 12:00 |
| qos_ | ArthurArchnix, no ipod touch ... | 12:00 |
| hischild | Seveas, it'll still ask for my pass ... or not? | 12:00 |
| Seveas | hischild, if you add it to the correct users crontab, you don't need sudo | 12:01 |
| icesword | Seveas, i will stop | 12:01 |
| hischild | Seveas, right ... tnx | 12:01 |
| ArthurArchnix | qos_: Well, you pasted instructions about a kernel module that charges and iphone when plugged into your computer. | 12:01 |
| qos_ | ArthurArchnix, thats my problem at the moment ... it is not recharing with linux | 12:02 |
| ArthurArchnix | But you have an ipod touch. Not an iphone qos_ What makes you think that will work? | 12:02 |
| qos_ | ArthurArchnix, the module is for the ipod touch | 12:03 |
| csb | allocate resource program --- dmfe: system bus error happens cr5=fffffff when booting what does this mean? please help | 12:03 |
| qos_ | ArthurArchnix, you can see the project details here ... http://matt.colyer.name/projects/iphone-module/ | 12:04 |
| ArthurArchnix | qos_: So let me get this straight. You've got an ipod touch, which you have working with ubuntu. The only thing that isn't working, is that it doesn't charge when connected. Is that right? | 12:04 |
| bowen | could someone tell me how to disable gnome-desktop starting on start up, i just want it to go into the command line?! | 12:05 |
| csb | init3 | 12:05 |
| qos_ | ArthurArchnix, right :) ... and for this there is a module or i think they call it driver | 12:05 |
| ArthurArchnix | qos_: Did you follow these instructions to get it working? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PortableDevices/iPhone | 12:05 |
| rhineheart_m | Is there a compatible software/script for ubuntu that will give functions like this? http://info.shallax.com/index.php | 12:05 |
| qos_ | ArthurArchnix, yeah | 12:06 |
| icesword | rhineheart_m, did you see below it,that generated by soemthing,hehe | 12:06 |
| ThreeFingerPete | bowen: the only way i know of is to remove it | 12:07 |
| bowen | ergh, i don | 12:07 |
| ArthurArchnix | qos_: Ok... well, at least I'm up to speed now if not very helpful. :P And what was the problem with the instructions, they didn't work? | 12:07 |
| bowen | i dont want to do that, i want to be able to start it manually again using startx | 12:07 |
| rhineheart_m | icesword: yeah.. but I guess its not compatible with ubuntu | 12:08 |
| qos_ | ArthurArchnix, i don't understand what the location of my linux tree is... | 12:08 |
| csb | allocate resource program --- dmfe: system bus error happens cr5=fffffff when booting what does this mean? please help | 12:08 |
| ThreeFingerPete | bowen: perhaps this will give you some rough ideas. http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/index.php | 12:08 |
| icesword | rhineheart_m, maybe,i think you need phpbb or something | 12:08 |
| marco | rhineheart_m, have you installed apache, and php? | 12:09 |
| bowen | ThreeFingerPete: cheers, i will look into that! | 12:09 |
| prince_jammys | bowen: go to system->administration->services and disable "gdm" | 12:09 |
| rhineheart_m | marco: yeah.. I do have | 12:09 |
| ArthurArchnix | qos_: I don't know either. | 12:09 |
| qos_ | ArthurArchnix, are you familiar with compiling? | 12:10 |
| wayne_ | I use kubuntu hardy but KDE3 apps sometimes don't seem to be able to establish network connections. Any non-KDE apps can do networking. | 12:10 |
| bowen | prince_jammys: thanks, i'll give that a go | 12:10 |

| jack2 | hi | 12:13 |
| ArthurArchnix | qos_: I can follow instructions. And I used to compile my own kernel back in the dapper days, but no more. Aside from that kernel tree thing though, it doesn't look too hard. | 12:13 |
| ArthurArchnix | Try just asking about that single line qos_ | 12:13 |
| qos_ | ArthurArchnix, didn't start this whole thing with my question about that single line? ;) | 12:14 |
| wayne_ | ubotu: thank you | 12:14 |
| ubotu | You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-) | 12:14 |
| wayne_ | i mean geirha | 12:14 |
| david_ | d | 12:15 |
| ArthurArchnix | qos_: Yup. But because you said "my ipod" I was concerned you were doing something really wrong. I just wanted to make sure you weren't a noob following bad advice. | 12:15 |

| rhineheart_m | marco: phpSysInfo 2.5.4 | 12:24 |

| faileas | muszek: in your situation tho, i'd just put them on a smb drive and use windows file sharing to access the files | 12:24 |
| marco | rhineheart_m: I didn't have any trouble with extraction. Are you using CommandLine or an archive program? | 12:24 |

| === BoY is now known as c0_pisces | ||

| Linux_Fresher | prince_jammys: no i already have warhammer installed on HD through windows installation | 12:27 |
| Linux_Fresher | prince_jammys: was trying to show the launcher exe to wine , but suddenly after installing wine, it took out my SATA 80 GB HD [ where the game and windows xp is ] .. giving some error that now it cant mount it .. i am SURE when i started Live CD , i have used 'My Computer' to see what all hard drives linux can "see" .. and i am SURE it was reading SATA disk | 12:28 |
| rhineheart_m | marco: okay.. I got it working.. but do you think this is safe? | 12:29 |
| Linux_Fresher | prince_jammys: launcher exe means dow.exe [ dawn of war. exe ] | 12:29 |
| Mannequin | hi | 12:29 |
| prince_jammys | Linux_Fresher: if you want to run an app from wine, you have to install it through wine though | 12:29 |
| Linux_Fresher | prince_jammys: oooh .. ok .. and why did suddenly SATA became unmountable ? | 12:30 |
| marco | rhineheart_m: Not sure to be completely honest. My webserver on my laptop is localhost only I use it for development only. So far the script looks pretty clean - I don't see any harm in making it public. | 12:30 |

| red_one | help, i get a python error whenever i try to use apt! | 12:30 |
| Linux_Fresher | prince_jammys: would it have anything to do with installing wine ? any idea ? | 12:30 |
| prince_jammys | Linux_Fresher: i'm not familiar with the kind of setup you have there. reboot, i guess | 12:31 |
| rhineheart_m | marco: thanks... have you checked the files already if it is really clean? | 12:31 |
| Linux_Fresher | prince_jammys: kk .. rebooting | 12:31 |
| marco | rhineheart_m: I scanned through the main function files. The ones that do all the calls. Dosn't seem like anything is malicious. Plus this is included in the Package Manager. Meaning Ubuntu team have already looked through and approved it. | 12:31 |
| rhineheart_m | marco: ah.. really? okay.. thanks... | 12:32 |
| marco | rhineheart_m: No problem. | 12:32 |

| Flynsarmy | anolis: Is there a way to default it to the window and have to press alt to get teh screen? | 12:53 |

| Mannequin | anyone who knows how to setup a dual-head with an nvidia card on two screens with different resolutions? | 13:00 |
| carrera | whitman, i'm new to ubuntu. What's aptitude pls? | 13:01 |
| jatt | !aptitude | 13:02 |
| ubotu | aptitude is another terminal-based front-end to APT. Like other APT front-ends, it can install/remove packages and their dependencies (on Dapper and earlier, however, only aptitude keeps track of unused dependencies). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptitudeSurvivalGuide | 13:02 |
| Flynsarmy | Mannequin: I just got dual monitors working with nvidia :) sudo nvidia-settings | 13:02 |
| carrera | thanks jatt | 13:02 |
| Mannequin | Hi Flynsarmy, I've run nvidia-settings some minutes ago | 13:03 |
| biabia | i put ubuntu on a pc with a wireless card here last nite, and it connects fine, but only to my neighbors not running encryption. cant get it to connect to ours which has 64bit hex wep set | 13:03 |
| Flynsarmy | Mannequin: I'm relatively new to ubuntu i don't know how to solve any real problems that come up. Just thought i'd suggest it incase you hadn't already tried | 13:03 |
| Mannequin | the only problem is that when I tried TwinView, the resolution of the laptop went to high | 13:03 |
| Mannequin | Flynsarmy: but, do you have same resolution on both screens? | 13:04 |
| Flynsarmy | Mannequin: no. Screen is much larger. The same thing appears on both monitors but i miss the bottom and right of the display on my laptop | 13:04 |
| Flynsarmy | Mannequin: If you do find a solution please let me know :) i'd love to have it fixed too | 13:04 |
| rhineheart_m | marco: Is there a way to remove the local IP there? | 13:07 |

| nickthorley | hi all - is there an alternative player for ubuntu that plays rm files or should i just install realplayer | 13:10 |
| polter | nickthorley, helix player | 13:11 |
| polter | or vlc | 13:11 |
| unicum | can't mplayer do that too? | 13:11 |
| polter | unicum, probably | 13:11 |
| jrib | nickthorley, unicum: yes, mplayer can play them as well | 13:11 |
| Codenut | Good Morning | 13:11 |
| polter | CHESHiRE, have you tried enabling it under "System->Settings->Apperance"? | 13:12 |
| nickthorley | i tried one vid but it didnt work but may have been corrupt or encoded with a strange codec i guess | 13:12 |
| unicum | then.. nickthorley type : sudo aptitude install mplayer-mozilla | 13:12 |
| unicum | that's a nice thing ^^ | 13:12 |
| jrib | nickthorley: did you have w32codecs? | 13:12 |
| IdleOne | !mp3 | nickthorley | 13:12 |
| ubotu | nickthorley: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats | 13:12 |
| Codenut | How do I make a backup of Evolution to a thumb drive? In essence how do I export the data in Evolution? | 13:12 |
| polter | unicum, I've had some issues with mplayer playing some rm-content though | 13:12 |
| nickthorley | jrib: well i need to check that - I believe i did but i will double check - they are available from the repos arent they | 13:12 |
| Cyberai | Codenut, just copy the .evolution folder in your home dir to the drive | 13:13 |
| polter | Codenut, all of your Evolution user-data is in the .evolution-folder | 13:13 |
| unicum | polter in what form? | 13:13 |
| jrib | nickthorley: not from the official repositories. But you can get them from the Medibuntu repositories | 13:13 |
| unicum | or, to what extent? | 13:13 |
| polter | unicum, blank windows saying "no video" and nothing else : | 13:13 |
| polter | but just on some sites though | 13:13 |
| nickthorley | jrib: are they in the 3rd party list or do I need to add them? | 13:13 |
| unicum | polter that ain't nice | 13:13 |
| polter | unicum, nope, not at all | 13:14 |
| polter | realplayer is built on top of the open source helixplayer I believe | 13:14 |
| XceII | How do i make my internet as fast as kubuntu, my ubuntu seems slow. | 13:14 |
| jrib | nickthorley: I don't know what you mean by "3rd party list" | 13:14 |
| unicum | after all, who needs real media anyway? :P | 13:14 |
| unicum | same crap as flash | 13:15 |
| IdleOne | !medibuntu | 13:15 |
| ubotu | medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org | 13:15 |
| CHESHiRE | Does anyone have the program that install the nvidia drivers to current ones | 13:15 |
| unicum | well.. maybe not as crappy, but almost | 13:15 |
| nickthorley | jrib: when you select the sources in the add remove programs there was one for 3rd party stuff - cant rememeber the terminology | 13:15 |
| polter | CHESHiRE, you mean envy? | 13:15 |
| CHESHiRE | thats the one :D | 13:15 |
| unicum | CHESHiRE : aptitude install nvidia-glx-new | 13:15 |
| CHESHiRE | like a purple program | 13:15 |
| jrib | nickthorley: not by default as far as I know | 13:15 |
| unicum | what.. envy? | 13:15 |
| polter | CHESHiRE, the nvidia-glx(-new) will probably do fine | 13:15 |
| polter | I usually install wiith nvidia's own installscript | 13:16 |
| bazhang | CHESHiRE: envy is a really awful idea | 13:16 |
| ubuntu-users | hi i have dvi cable now how i can have picture from pc ubuntu in my tv | 13:16 |
| incorrect | are there any tools to reload all my kernel modules? | 13:16 |
| mrsno__ | CHESHiRE envy will , its not recommended but definately useful for people who _NEED_ the latest nvidia driver, the version in gutsy repos doesn't work great with 8600 series cards. | 13:16 |
| dgjones | Codenut, Under the file menu in Evolution, isn't there an option for backing up your data? I've seen it somewhere in the recent versions of Evolution | 13:16 |
| nickthorley | could anyone send me very good repos for ubuntu that may contain good packages - I was previously a fedora person so dont know any good ubuntu ones except the defaults | 13:16 |
| polter | nickthorley, the default ones contain most you will ever need | 13:17 |
| XceII | How can i make my internet connect faster in ubuntu | 13:17 |
| ubuntu-users | hi i have dvi cable now how i can have picture from pc ubuntu in my tv | 13:17 |
| unicum | XceII what do u mean, connect faster? | 13:17 |
| XceII | ya, kubuntu is fast, ubuntu is slow | 13:17 |
| hc1 | hi guys | 13:17 |
| unicum | o.O | 13:18 |
| polter | XceII, seems a bit strange.. check dmesg for errors about network | 13:18 |
| XceII | ok | 13:18 |
| XceII | tx | 13:18 |
| polter | it's really hard to help with something that can depend on sooo many things | 13:18 |
| XceII | ic | 13:19 |
| XceII | its weird tho | 13:19 |
| polter | XceII, indeed it is | 13:19 |
| XceII | ok ill keep plugging, thanks | 13:19 |
| IdleOne | nickthorley, the default ones plus !universe and !multiverse are the good ones | 13:19 |

| ubotu | The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecommendedSources for the recommended way to set up your repositories | 13:20 |

| sinbox | I hope this isn't off-topic: anyone know of a portable address book application that would be compatible with linux & windows? | 13:36 |
| unicum | btw, is there any way to transport old logs (i used miranda im under windows) to the pidgin (linux) i'm using right now? | 13:36 |
| rambo3 | !tvout | 13:37 |
| ubotu | For help with enabling the TV-Out, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NvidiaTVOutNewbieEdition (Nvidia cards) or http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Tvout (ATI cards, *untested*) | 13:37 |
| polter | unicum, I think there is a plugin for pidgin that can read logs from other clients | 13:37 |
| polter | unicum, search synaptic for "pidgin plugin pack" | 13:37 |
| unicum | just found that one.. it doesn't say anything about miranda im though | 13:37 |
| jrib | sinbox: maybe the thunderbird address book? | 13:37 |
| unicum | it says it can read msn, yahoo and all this crap.. well, on the other hand those are just the protocols, maybe i should try | 13:38 |
| Jack_Sparrow | sinbox, sunbird ..by mozilla | 13:38 |
| sinbox | jrib, well I don't think they've made the portable thunderbird compatible with both linux and and windows yet, but there are rumours that they are working on it | 13:38 |
| Jack_Sparrow | sinbox, one that runs on both.. no | 13:38 |
| Duckstar | jrib: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/58721 | 13:39 |
| sinbox | they profiles are compatibles though so I guess I'll have to go with that, Jack_Sparrow | 13:39 |

| iratiku | I went to apache to solve my server issues, they told me to install mod_status... mod_status isn't in /etc/apache2/mods-available .... I can't find any howto's or tutorials on installing mod_status , can anyone point me in the right direction? | 13:40 |
| unicum | f11 is usually used to fullscreen windows, is ther a key or a shortcut to minimize windows/"unfullscreen" windows/drop windows to the status bar | 13:40 |
| sinbox | unicum, I think log files are just plain text files with a different extension, just try moving them into your pigin log folder and see what gives | 13:40 |
| polter | unicum, check System->Settings->Keyboard Shortcuts | 13:41 |
| unicum | hm, right | 13:41 |
| jrib | iratiku: are you sure? I have it here. Try 'sudo a2enmod status' | 13:42 |
| unicum | sinbox i think that won't work 'cuz in miranda the logs were included in the profile-file | 13:42 |
| iratiku | "This module does not exist" | 13:42 |
| jrib | iratiku: what version of ubuntu? | 13:42 |
| iratiku | I think i'm running 6.06 | 13:42 |

| jrib | !version | iratiku | 13:42 |
| ubotu | iratiku: To find out what version of Ubuntu you have, type « lsb_release -a » in a !shell | 13:42 |
| iratiku | yep | 13:42 |
| iratiku | 6.06.1 LTS | 13:42 |
| sinbox | ok unicum I din't know that, but you can still read your old log in any text editor though even if they don't transfer I guess | 13:43 |
| polter | unicum, this is what I found about pidgin reading logs http://developer.pidgin.im/ticket/361 | 13:43 |

| ubuntu-users | i can not afford it with lcd tv | 13:46 |
| iratiku | ubuntu-users: if you don't have an lcd tv... the resolution will be such crap on a regular tv | 13:46 |

| jrib | iratiku: I'd wait for hardy to upgrade from dapper, that way you can skip the releases in between | 13:51 |
| dgjones | qwertz2007, you need to give more details, which wireless card, what you've tried etc, before people will know whether they can help you | 13:51 |
| jrib | bmm: #ubuntu-motu | 13:51 |
| whatspy | next question: some file appears to be un-renamable because there are weird characters in it's name (I can't type them in the console !), how do we deal with such issues? | 13:51 |
| qwertz2007 | yes yes ok | 13:51 |
| qwertz2007 | i have got wireless pci-card wg311t (netgear) | 13:51 |
| iratiku | So I'd have to upgrade from dapper to edgy to feisty to gutsy ... to get mod_status and figure out why my server is hanging? | 13:51 |
| iratiku | gosh.................. | 13:51 |
| qwertz2007 | my main problem is that i can't connect | 13:51 |
| hischild | Jack_Sparrow, i found out what was causing me a lot of trouble ... it appears my graphics card has "some" trouble .... so i reverted back to my x1300 card... yet i want to connect my tv, which is black and white, so it's most likely at ntsc instead of pal. With nvidia-settings that was an option to change, but how can i do that for ati? (long story :p ) | 13:51 |
| qwertz2007 | to my wireless station (router) | 13:52 |
| bmm | thank you | 13:52 |
| jrib | iratiku: well, first you should read the link I sent you which suggests you can enable mod_status on dapper | 13:52 |
| nickthorley | sorry to repeat all but whats the best way to connect filesystems from one machine to another - is it still nfs and editing the /etc/exports file or is there a more efficient way | 13:52 |
| mohbana | where can i control which services are started up? | 13:52 |
| Jack_Sparrow | hischild, I think I got it.. one sec.. let me look at my notes on those | 13:52 |
| iratiku | jrib: i was reading that article... doesn't mention dapper... just says mod_status is already compiled on debian based systems such as ubuntu | 13:52 |

| fakhruddin | actually i also tried using mysql | 13:57 |
| Jack_Sparrow | fakhruddin, we no longer use beryl and we need to know the chipset on the graphic card in that box | 13:57 |
| jrib | mohbana: ok, I don't see why that implies the output ps gives you is incomplete. You can see what services are setup to be run by reading 'man update-rc.d', or using sysv-rc-conf if you want a curses interface | 13:57 |

| ubotu | Codenut: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) | 14:00 |

| jrib | anolis: yes | 14:11 |
| anolis | jrib, ok, i shall try now | 14:11 |

| Lacrymology | I was playing with compiz configuration | 14:20 |
| Lacrymology | and there was this option | 14:20 |
| bloody` | whats that? | 14:20 |
| Lacrymology | "inside cube" | 14:20 |
| Lacrymology | so I check it | 14:20 |
| marx2k | s there a BitchX ctrl-key combo that switches windows instead of me typing /window goto <window number>? | 14:20 |
| Lacrymology | and I'm inside the cube, and can't access my windows | 14:20 |
| Lacrymology | anyone's got any ideas? | 14:20 |
| bloody` | lac: have you tried exiting the program? | 14:20 |
| marx2k | Lacrymology Think outside of the box | 14:20 |
| astheo | maybe you missed some of it. anyway, as far as know bittorrent is installed by default in ubuntu. however i cannot access it through menu. is there a way i can enlist it in my menu? | 14:20 |
| anolis | Lacrymology, lol, you can delete the config file out of /home/username/.compiz | 14:21 |
| Lacrymology | anolis: thanks | 14:21 |
| drK_avNgr | The man's trapped in a box. | 14:21 |

| anolis | Lacrymology, forgot to mention .compiz is a dir.. so yea the file inside the :P | 14:21 |

| Lacrymology | anolis: no .compiz dir either | 14:21 |
| anolis | Lacrymology, hmm lemme see then.. | 14:21 |

| astheo | maybe you misseas far as know bittorrent is installed by default in ubuntu. however i cannot access it through menu. is there a way i can enlist it in my menu? | 14:22 |
| drK_avNgr | I'd love to, but they also don't work. | 14:23 |
| drK_avNgr | It's a Sony Vaio VGN-FS550 | 14:23 |
| anolis | Lacrymology, actually | 14:23 |
| magistrum | vaio got problems with ubuntu | 14:23 |
| astheo | hi, anyone out there how would like to help me?:) | 14:23 |
| biabia_ | ok yes the instructions say ath0 but you are right it is called wlan0 on my pc. how do i set the IP with iwconfig? I read the man page but i cant figure out how | 14:23 |
| Lacrymology | anolis: neither... the one I said exists, but it hasn't any "inside cube" option | 14:23 |
| astheo | who | 14:23 |
| anolis | Lacrymology, try going to a console and doing. "xinit ccsm -- :1" | 14:23 |
| drK_avNgr | magistrum: So there's nothing I can do? | 14:23 |
| marx2k | Does anyone here use BitchX? | 14:23 |

| biabia_ | bloody i was following this guide and step 3 didnt seem to work: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WiFiWithSomeoneElsesRouter | 14:25 |
| Lacrymology | anolis: I killed compiz, and reconfigured before starting it. Now all's fine | 14:25 |

| ThreeFingerPete | ive got a windows ntfs partition. no matter how much i defrag it, its got a big gap of space at the beginning. how do i get the files to move up against the beginning of the partition so that i can install some 'buntu? | 14:25 |
| drK_avNgr | bazhang: Sure. When I try to use the brightness controls within power management to change the brightness of my screen, the slider moves but nothing happens. Also, when I unplug the computer from AC, brightness does not change. The function keys don't work for anything. So basically I'm stuck at the 2nd highest brightness setting and it eats my battery. | 14:26 |
| magistrum | ok drk | 14:26 |
| magistrum | got my wsp il explain | 14:26 |
| magistrum | there | 14:26 |
| bazhang | drK_avNgr: could you tell me the make and model of that computer please? | 14:26 |
| drK_avNgr | wsp? | 14:26 |
| anolis | well at least i helped him help himself | 14:26 |
| bloody` | bia: why not just use gui? | 14:26 |
| drK_avNgr | bazhang: Sony Vaio VGN-FS550 | 14:26 |
| magistrum | yea i called oyu on private | 14:26 |
| bazhang | drK_avNgr: thanks hang on a sec | 14:27 |
| bloody` | mag: hes prolly not reg'd | 14:27 |
| biabia_ | i tried but its only connecting to my neighbors | 14:27 |
| drK_avNgr | Thanks bazhang. | 14:27 |
| bloody` | bia: change the ssid, use nm-applet to connect | 14:27 |
| drK_avNgr | magistrum: I didn't receive anything, sent you a PM | 14:27 |
| bloody` | bia: nm-applet you can manually type in the ssid | 14:27 |
| sshirley | Hi all | 14:28 |
| sshirley | I have an Intel dual-core processor on my laptop. I seem to be running a '*-generic' kernel. Does that mean it is not using both CPUs? | 14:28 |
| BizMan | anyone know anything about sshfs? i have a question | 14:28 |
| bloody` | sshirtly: no | 14:28 |
| magistrum | <drK_avNgr> what about now, wantes to tell you try to install graphic drivers | 14:28 |
| bloody` | sshirtley: cat /proc/cpuinfo | 14:29 |
| biabia_ | bloody`, ya i did that but it doesnt connect. i followed all the steps to set essid ap and the key | 14:29 |
| drK_avNgr | magistrum: You want me to install specific drivers to my graphics card? | 14:29 |
| biabia_ | i just cant get the ip set | 14:29 |
| bloody` | bia: did you setup the wrong channel? | 14:29 |
| sshirley | bloody: I am not in from of my home computer right now. What should I expect to see when I 'cat'? | 14:29 |
| magistrum | yea, mayber ubuntu , and hrdwer dont recognize them becaus you miss drivers for graphic card, and for function keys, on your vaio wepage should be drivers there | 14:30 |
| bloody` | sshirtley: it should show up as 2 processors | 14:30 |
| bloody` | if you have a 1.6ghz it will show as 2 800mhz cpu's | 14:30 |
| sshirley | and if not? i am not sure if both are bing used because gkrellm only shows activity on 1 processor | 14:30 |
| biabia_ | bloody no its channel 5 i can see it in my iwlist scan | 14:30 |
| sshirley | oh | 14:30 |
| cobolfoo | sshirley, Menu: System -> Administration -> System Monitor : If you have 2 CPU, you will see: CPU1 and CPU2 | 14:30 |
| drK_avNgr | magistrum: I have an Intel 945GM card, and you think that Sony of all people would have Linux drivers? | 14:30 |
| bloody` | bia: are you in the US? | 14:31 |
| biabia_ | ya | 14:31 |
| cobolfoo | bloody Are you sure? I have a AMD X2 2.2, and I have 2 1.8ghz CPU, not 2 0.9 | 14:31 |
| sshirley | that's lame. why wouldn't it show each at 1.6ghz? | 14:31 |
| magistrum | <drK_avNgr>they should HP for instance had for my pavilion all the drivers | 14:31 |
| bloody` | mine shows at 2 1.2ghz= 2.4 | 14:31 |
| drK_avNgr | magistrum: Were they Linux drivers? | 14:31 |
| magistrum | <drK_avNgr>you could try private pages do | 14:31 |
| drK_avNgr | That's impressive. | 14:31 |
| bloody` | bia: the us uses channels 1,6, or 11 | 14:32 |
| magistrum | <drK_avNgr>Support and Drivers maybe :) or private pages like linux dirvers, and look for your graphic card | 14:32 |
| cobolfoo | sshirley, some processors adjust they speed depending of the load, sometime linux will tell me that my CPUs are slower but if I fire up an application, the CPU speed get higher | 14:32 |
| erUSUL | bloody`:« < bloody`> if you have a 1.6ghz it will show as 2 800mhz cpu's » o.0 WTF!!! that's simply wrong/not true | 14:32 |
| Aranel | hey, whats the version of xf86-video-nv | 14:32 |

| Jack_Sparrow | hischild, Tell me if you think that is any clearer now http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/58731/ | 14:35 |
| biabia_ | my modem/network was working with the other pc's and the channel has been set at 5 for a couple years. but those are windows pc's and this one that wont connect is the only linux one | 14:35 |

| magistrum | <drK_avNgr> any luck | 14:35 |
| erUSUL | bloody`: that's only cpufrequencie scaling i have a AMS 3800+ X2 @ 2GHz but now they are running at 1GHz if i launch a compile jobe they both scale up to the full 2GHz speed | 14:35 |
| allen_ | need help | 14:35 |
| bloody` | ok | 14:35 |
| hischild | Jack_Sparrow, would it help if the user would do sudo apt-get build-dep alsastuffhere ? | 14:36 |
| cobolfoo | yes, all AMD have this feature | 14:36 |
| bloody` | i dont want it scaled | 14:36 |
| erUSUL | bloody`: on multicore cpu all cpus run at nominal speed | 14:36 |
| cobolfoo | I think you can use cpufreq-selector command to lock the speed | 14:36 |
| erUSUL | bloody`: change the cpu-freq governor from ondeman to performance | 14:36 |
| skratz0r | Hello all | 14:36 |
| bloody` | where? | 14:36 |
| Jack_Sparrow | hischild, Feel free to edit it and give me a link back.. it is such a common problem... I wanted to simplify it as much as possible | 14:36 |
| hischild | Jack_Sparrow, alright, i will ... i seem to have screwed my box over pretty bad (as usuall ... :P ) | 14:37 |
| Aranel | how can I install xserver-xorg-video-nv 2.1.8 ? | 14:37 |
| magistrum | Ok i need help now, is there a program like telnet in ubuntu :) and is there much difrence | 14:37 |
| cl3tUs | Can anyone help me out with an easy question? | 14:37 |
| hischild | Jack_Sparrow, so im goin to reinstall it again (easiest solution) | 14:37 |
| Jack_Sparrow | hischild, on your video? | 14:37 |
| sshirley | And applications have to be multi-core cpu aware in order to use both? like i am wondering if mythtv is so. | 14:37 |
| hischild | Jack_Sparrow, yup ... | 14:37 |
| Jack_Sparrow | hischild, no need to reinstall for video.. | 14:38 |
| allen_ | can i use windows software on ubuntu ? ? | 14:38 |
| magistrum | so any help for me | 14:38 |
| faileas | sort of | 14:38 |
| bloody` | allen: yes, thru wine | 14:38 |
| cobolfoo | sshirley, by default few programs support the 2 cpus | 14:38 |
| faileas | some apps work via wine | 14:38 |
| bloody` | alot* | 14:38 |
| hischild | Jack_Sparrow, uhm .... i see the background for a second, then it goes white ... then i cant do shit ... other then move the mouse ... | 14:38 |
| DOOM_NX | allen_, u could also create a virtual machine with Windows installed on it | 14:39 |
| magistrum | is there any program like telnet in ubuntu | 14:39 |
| faileas | magistrum: there should be a telnet client, but i can't quite recall what its called | 14:39 |
| Jack_Sparrow | hischild, Let me paste my full note section on your ati card.. then I need to run out to the Dr and bbl.. | 14:39 |
| sshirley | cobolfoo: so i would have to compile mythtv on my own if I wanted that (using a multi-core flag or something)? | 14:39 |
| cobolfoo | to lock the cpu scale, you can use this command: sudo cpufreq-selector -g PERFORMANCE but I dont know how its can be useful. | 14:39 |
| brobostigon | good afternoon | 14:39 |

| cobolfoo | sshirley, I dont know specificaly for myth-tv, but if for example, myth-tv call programs in background (encoders) they will run on the best available CPU automaticaly | 14:39 |

| erUSUL | bloody`: sudo cpufreq-set -g performance (sorry) | 14:40 |
| bloody` | er: thanks | 14:40 |
| magistrum | haha i might | 14:40 |
| cobolfoo | sshirley, but if you compile something, use : make -j3 when you compile, it will split the compilation on both cpu evenly (you know 2 CPU at 100% everytime, a huge compilation speed boost) | 14:40 |
| faileas | magistrum: also try apt-cache search telnet to see whats listed | 14:41 |
| Jack_Sparrow | hischild, get to recovery mode, you should be able to clear it with sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg even if it is only vesa mode and 1024 | 14:41 |

| ubstud | when I try "glxinfo | grep render" IT says direct rendering = NO - could someone help me get 3d working on my comp? | 14:42 |
| beerdeaap | cl3tUs: ~ is your homedir, normally executables are in /usr/bin | 14:43 |
| cl3tUs | cobolfoo, I'm working on that, but I did a "mkdir ~/gcc-3.4" and after I did that, I'm trying to move these .deb files over and it won't let me. | 14:43 |
| hischild | Jack_Sparrow, thanks for your help ... iĺl just reinstall ( had to do that anyway, screwed up some permissions on some directories) | 14:43 |
| cl3tUs | ahhh | 14:43 |
| cl3tUs | beerdeapp: so I should check my /usr/bin? | 14:43 |
| v3ctor | cl3tUs: show the exact command you ran to move the files | 14:43 |
| cobolfoo | cl3tus: whereis `gcc-3.4` | 14:43 |
| ubstud | anyone? | 14:43 |
| carrera | hi | 14:43 |

| carrera | ah, thanks | 14:44 |
| ubstud | when I try "glxinfo | grep render" IT says direct rendering = NO - could someone help me get 3d working on my comp? | 14:44 |
| beerdeaap | cl3tUs: just type "locate gcc" or "which gcc" it should give you the path to gcc | 14:44 |
| cl3tUs | Vector: Your name is nifty. Same as the city in Final Fantasy 3 :D Anyway, I ran this: "mkdir ~/gcc-3.4" | 14:44 |
| faileas | ubstud: what video card? and are the necessary drivers installed? | 14:45 |

| carrera | thanks faileas, looked it up on man, exactly what i was looking for | 14:45 |

| carrera | btw, people are very responsive today | 14:46 |
| onur_ | saveas you suck !!!! | 14:46 |

| faileas | carrera: you can use apt (or smart) with RPMs | 14:50 |
| carrera | faileas, better yet, any links at all | 14:50 |
| faileas | carrera: just read the man page ;p | 14:50 |

| erle- | of course there may be bugs, that's not the point | 14:51 |
| carrera | faileas, thanks and smart? | 14:51 |
| bazhang | faileas: no rpms on ubuntu | 14:51 |
| brobostigon | erle-: you shouldnt, not safe | 14:51 |
| erle- | the software itself contained are stable versions | 14:51 |
| faileas | carrera: smart.. is for when you don't have apt. its really versatile but isn't 'stock' on any distro i know of | 14:51 |
| ArmedKing | c what i mean carrera :p | 14:51 |
| bazhang | carrera: no rpms or smart with ubuntu; that is #suse | 14:51 |
| erle- | only the compilation is really alpha | 14:51 |
| * faileas suggests sticking to apt, and its front ends on ubuntu | 14:52 | |
| carrera | thanks faileas, bazhang, i don't intend to use rpm on ubuntu | 14:52 |
| faileas | bazhang: suse is yast.. which is rather... slow ;p | 14:52 |

| bazhang | workstation: you first of all need to upgrade to a more recent version of Ubuntu; that one is no longer supported | 14:57 |
| bloody` | ya think? | 14:57 |
| workstation | i'm doomed.. | 14:57 |
| cl3tUs | beerdeaap: I am reading an article that kept telling me to do stuff with "sudo", so I figured I'd just use "su" and identify myself as root. | 14:57 |
| workstation | i had a kubuntu version 6.0 but it had problem with my screens.. | 14:58 |
| bloody` | cl3tus: not a good idea | 14:58 |
| hischild | bazhang, really? no longer supported? hmm ... i wonder... | 14:58 |
| workstation | it used to switch off jus un expectedly.. | 14:58 |
| cl3tUs | bloody: Note dually taken. How come? | 14:58 |
| bloody` | cl3tus: ive ran linux for over 5 years and i hardly ever login as root | 14:58 |
| beerdeaap | cl3tUs: okay that makes sense then since the homefolder of root is normally /root (but indeed it is not a good idea to su) | 14:58 |
| bloody` | cl3: theres no need, just sudo or gksudo | 14:58 |
| hischild | workstation, the recent version is 7,10. Try that one, it has worked wonders for me. (with a few things that were fairly easy to solve) | 14:59 |
| cl3tUs | Awesome. Okay, I need to start over. Question....does rmdir work in Linux? | 14:59 |
| Kaja | You can always sudo su... | 14:59 |
| cl3tUs | what is gksudo? | 14:59 |
| Kaja | graphical sudo | 14:59 |
| Kira | Hmm, it looks like the apache2 package that is installed through aptitude does not include mod_rewrite. | 14:59 |
| cl3tUs | Neat! | 14:59 |
| beerdeaap | !rmdir | 14:59 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about rmdir - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 14:59 |

| jshriver | "for i in *.tiff; do convert $i $i.png; done" is the command you may need ImageMagik installed though for the convert command | 15:02 |
| bazhang | workstation: sure; go to www.ubuntu.com and download the 32 bit 7.10 (gutsy gibbon) version x86 | 15:02 |

| bloody` | maybe patience | 15:05 |
| jshriver | snarkster: hope that helps | 15:05 |
| jshriver | I haven't used gocr much, but it was the best I've found for Linux | 15:05 |

| vox | DonkeyKong101: amsn | 15:07 |
| drK_avNgr | bazhang: I think the problem is the module isn't set to load on bootup. | 15:07 |
| drK_avNgr | I could be wrong though. | 15:07 |
| brobostigon | DonkeyKong101: amsn or pidgin | 15:07 |
| jshriver | I just tried it on my box this works "for i in *.tiff; do convert $i $i.png; done" or *.tif whatever your filenames are called | 15:07 |
| v3ctor | vox: what sort of debugging support? | 15:07 |
| bazhang | drK_avNgr: ah you may be right there how about sudo fsfn what does that do? do the fn keys work then? | 15:07 |
| DonkeyKong101 | vox: using amsn at the moment...but its just stopped working...apparantly im not connected to the internet anymore | 15:08 |
| drK_avNgr | bazhang: Yes they do. | 15:08 |
| jshriver | snarkster: type done at the end of the line | 15:08 |

| JC_Denton_ | I tried 'apt-get -f install' to repair my app but keep getting this: http://pastebin.org/22760 | 15:12 |
| cl3tUs | that's fine beerdeaap. It's really weird. I mean, it's like Linux just finds your NIC drive and magically works, but in Windows,you have to manually load it. | 15:12 |
| vlt | Daveeey: You can address more RAM directly, and some 64bit optimised operations/programs should run faster (maybe ssl, aes, databases?) | 15:12 |

| vlt | jshriver: dovecot or courier | 15:15 |

| bazhang | drK_avNgr: sorry, but cannot find where to put those modules on startup, looked in the forums teh google and no luck ;[ | 15:23 |
| q0s | genii, after storing them there i can simple insmod them or put them into /etc/modules? | 15:23 |
| Agent_bob | i'm at a loss as to why sshd wont start at boot time, anyone that might have insight on this ? | 15:23 |
| genii | q0s: use depmod -a to update the modules list then you can use them like normal | 15:23 |

| robline | I'm on 64-bit gutsy installed via alternative cd. Many applications are crashing when I access the directory. | 15:25 |
| beerdeaap | cl3tUS: I'm not familiar with Altiris and I don't know if it's going to work but if you want to find the .ko files type "locate .ko" a list of files should appear. But again (the system which will load has to have the same kernel as the one you're getting the module from) | 15:25 |
| Agent_bob | erUSUL even added "/etc/init.d/ssh start" into /etc/rc.local | 15:25 |
| erUSUL | Agent_bob: and if you do sudo /etc/init.d/ssh do you get any error? | 15:25 |
| robline | For example, text editor crashes when I hit save. Inkscape crashes when I try to import a png. Open office crashes when inserting an image, etc. | 15:25 |
| Agent_bob | erUSUL no. it starts fine manually | 15:25 |

| Jack_Sparrow | robline, You will need to provide more info. Is this a fresh install or did it ever work, have you changed or added repos, did you manually install video drivers or things outside our repos | 15:27 |
| v3ctor | Agent_bob: tired reinstalling sshd ? | 15:27 |
| vlt | Agent_bob: Is there a /etc/default/ssh file? | 15:27 |

| Agent_bob | v3ctor no | 15:28 |
| Agent_bob | vlt no | 15:28 |
| Agent_bob | v3ctor i can try that. but i don't understand why a reinstall would make a differance if it runs fine but just wont start automaticly... | 15:28 |
| robline | Not a fresh install. Yes, it did work before. I have added repos, including backport, which I installed to try to get sound working from headphone jack. | 15:29 |

| erUSUL | !alien | JC_Denton_ | 15:31 |
| ubotu | JC_Denton_: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous) | 15:31 |
| phantruongdu | after I install the driver | 15:31 |
| phantruongdu | and reboot | 15:31 |
| bazhang | phantruongdu: how did you install the driver | 15:31 |
| nickrud | Agent_bob: JC_Denton_ ooohhhh, that's pretty dangerous with system libraries like mono. | 15:31 |
| Jack_Sparrow | robline, I dont mean to leave in the middle of this, but I do need to go, just pointing out info that will help others to help you better | 15:32 |
| robline | Jack_Sparrow, thanks BTW. I do not believe I have tried automatix or envy. This is an inconsistent problem. | 15:32 |
| phantruongdu | I installed it sucessfully | 15:32 |
| robline | Jack_Sparrow, thax | 15:32 |
| Jack_Sparrow | np | 15:32 |
| phantruongdu | by restricted hardware managerment | 15:32 |
| Agent_bob | v3ctor hmm? of course i edited the conf file, who doesn't ? | 15:32 |
| nickrud | JC_Denton_: is there any overwhelming reason you need that mono version? | 15:32 |
| Jack_Sparrow | robline, Supply those answers and it will greatly simplify all of this for both of you | 15:32 |

| mohamed | how to resolve this xml error | 15:34 |
| nickrud | JC_Denton_: if you're doing development I'd suggest seeing if hardy has those libs, and if so install it in a vm or another partition. If you use this machine as your main one, don't put alien'd rpms on it. | 15:35 |

| JC_Denton_ | nickrud , anyways to fix my apt install though? | 15:36 |
| phantruongdu | bazhang:just popular program like firefox, pidgin | 15:36 |
| nickrud | mohamed: I don't know a thing about zen, sorry. You should ask every 10 minutes or so, and quote the exact error message. Someone may recognize it. | 15:37 |
| Sprutnik | brobostigon ok | 15:37 |
| mohamed | ok thanks | 15:37 |

| xeer | kostkon: not sure. totem plays the video smoothly but at incorrect colors. vlc plays it with the correct colors but it's very very choppy. | 15:39 |
| Agent_bob | v3ctor that simply means sshd is not running. | 15:39 |

| Agent_bob | Aranel there is a switch for grub i just don't recall what it is. i don't use grub because it's too weak to boot my system | 15:51 |
| Aranel | weak? what do u using now ? | 15:51 |
| Agent_bob | lilo | 15:52 |
| phantruongdu | bazhang: what do you got so far sir | 15:52 |
| Aranel | Agent_bob: oh, is it a bit "old" ? | 15:52 |
| Odd-rationale | jamil_11020429: They are similar to shortcuts in windows. | 15:52 |
| Sprutnik | brobostigon where do i do that | 15:52 |
| farruinn | How can I move my window buttons (close, max, etc) from the right to left corner with compiz? It used to be simple with metacity | 15:52 |
| Agent_bob | Aranel writen before grub if that's what you mean. | 15:52 |
| bazhang | phantruongdu: okay that looks alright; now cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | pastebinit and same procedure please | 15:52 |
| brobostigon | Sprutnik: inside amsn preferences | 15:52 |
| beerdeaap | cl3tUS: you should first figure out what .ko files are needed for the NIC you're going to use but i guess they can be found in /lib/modules/2.6.16-20-generic/kernel/drivers/net | 15:52 |
| monkeyBox | Does anyone know how to get the BCM4310 wireless card working natively w/ linux? I'm using ndiswrapper and performance is terrible | 15:53 |
| Aranel | Agent_bob: uh, i can give you commands of grub ? | 15:53 |
| Padonak | íàðîä, ïîäñêàæèòå ïëèç. êàêîå ðàñøèðåíèå ó ôàéëîâ òèïà "Shell script"? | 15:53 |
| Odd-rationale | jamil_11020429: Basically the symbolic link points to the file or dir and acts as if it were that file or dir. as oppose to a hard link. | 15:53 |
| robline | I can also post my X-session errors if it would help | 15:53 |
| jamil_11020429 | Odd-rationale: how can i create them ? | 15:53 |
| Aranel | Agent_bob: can I use GRUB and LILO together ? | 15:54 |
| Aranel | LILO for Windows, GRUB for Linux etc. | 15:54 |
| phantruongdu | bazhang: http://paste.stgraber.org/1280 here sir | 15:54 |
| Odd-rationale | jamil_11020429: ln -s /file /file | 15:54 |
| v3ctor | Aranel: why would you want to do that? | 15:54 |
| Agent_bob | Aranel no. one or the other. and you probably don't want to configure lilo if you are having trouble configuring grub | 15:54 |
| Sprutnik | brobostigon i says its allright and i can ajust it | 15:54 |
| faileas | Aranel: windows dosen't use lilo | 15:54 |
| Aranel | v3ctor: because i cant boot Windows via GRUB. | 15:54 |
| bloody` | lilo = linux loader | 15:55 |
| v3ctor | Aranel: what happens when you try? | 15:55 |
| Padonak | à ðóññêèå åñòü? | 15:55 |

| bloody` | !ask | mohammed | 15:55 |
| phantruongdu | bazhang: what you got sir | 15:55 |
| ubotu | mohammed: 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. :-) | 15:55 |
| Sprutnik | brobostigon but i dosn't work | 15:55 |
| Aranel | v3ctor: It only prints "Starting up.." and waits forever. | 15:55 |
| RaVen478 | Hey people just made the switch to ubuntu. used it 6 months ago but was forced to windows because of web developing | 15:55 |
| faileas | Aranel: fix windows bootloader from the install disk/recovery console, then reinstall grub | 15:55 |
| LazyMukke | can i tail commandline ? | 15:55 |
| brobostigon | Sprutnik: i have ran out of ideas, | 15:56 |
| Agent_bob | this is not a sujestion, but; actually one could install lilo on the second hdd and grub on the first hdd or vice versa but that's redundant and sounds like something Agent_bob would do | 15:56 |
| bloody` | lazy: tail commndline? | 15:56 |
| Aranel | faileas: I did it too. I installed Windows yesterday, and reinstalled GRUB | 15:56 |
| v3ctor | Aranel: what does thr windows section of you menu.lst look like? | 15:56 |
| Sprutnik | brobostigon do you have aMSN | 15:56 |
| bloody` | nobody uses lilo anymore | 15:56 |
| bazhang | phantruongdu: now try this: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and make sure to choose vesa for the driver | 15:56 |
| brobostigon | Sprutnik: i used too, | 15:56 |
| LazyMukke | bloody`, i need to see what was the output of the last command executed | 15:56 |
| Aranel | When I reinstalled it, I cant boot Wİndows. | 15:56 |

| ks3 | Kira: I don't have SSHD installed on this machine, but I'm fairly certain it leaves existing connections open | 15:58 |
| bloody` | ramu: you need modules to do that | 15:58 |
| Aranel | v3ctor: what are you using instead of rootnoverify ? | 15:58 |
| v3ctor | root | 15:58 |

| _ndlovu | hi. is it possible to start a program running through ssh that will continue running after I disconnect? | 16:24 |
| LazyMukke | hischild_, since i don't know wich output it is a cannot define normal | 16:24 |
| hischild_ | _ndlovu, yes. You can use screen | 16:24 |
| utb0t | _ndlovu: or maybe nohup | 16:24 |
| _ndlovu | hischild_, utb0t how would I do that? | 16:25 |
| overlow | Odd-rationale; anything else to do? | 16:25 |
| hischild_ | LazyMukke, you dont have to know what output. If it would normally print it wher eyou can read it on your terminal, you can use pastebinit to stick it on a website. | 16:25 |
| Odd-rationale | overlow: Now restart X and hope that every things works. try the stylus, try rightclicking and try rotateing the display. Report back. | 16:25 |
| beerdeaap | cl3tUS: you should first check what network-card you have (intel, realtek etc) you can see a list of devices by typing "lspci" in the terminal. After looking that up type "lsmod" to see a list of loaded kernel modules. depending on your card-type you should see a module that's loaded for your card (together with the usage count) . | 16:25 |
| phantruongdu | bazhang: i finished sir | 16:25 |
| Agent_bob | _ndlovu you can start it in a vt also. ssh user@ip openvt -fc 32 -- your command plus agrs here. | 16:25 |

| _ndlovu | utb0t, that option looks simplest, thanks | 16:27 |
| phantruongdu | bazhang: what sir, can you say again i how can i do that | 16:27 |
| joeytwiddle | yw | 16:27 |
| _ndlovu | Agent_bob, I'll try your option if I can't get nohup working! ;) | 16:27 |

| loralitilli | hi | 16:29 |
| Sevis_ | thanks | 16:29 |
| nah | hi i have problem with the qemu. after creating my new ubuntu image iso, i tested with qemu but it shows me in the bootin this following error: FATAL:Error inserting battery (/lib/modules/2.6.22-14-generic/kernel/drivers/acpi/battery.ko) no such devi. what's the problem? | 16:29 |
| Agent_bob | Sevis_ it should be as simple as kmenu > system settings > vidio and display i think... | 16:30 |
| jramsey | are the encryption keys used by passwd to encrypt passwords the same across all ubuntu distros? | 16:30 |
| Agent_bob | jramsey shadow is used | 16:30 |
| Sevis_ | system and settings are seperate folders for me, and there's no vidio and display... | 16:31 |
| _ndlovu | erm... joeytwiddle, Agent_bob, any idea how to make that work with putty... windows ate my ubuntu so I'm venturing into unfamiliar territory | 16:31 |
| jramsey | Agent_bob, how does shadow obtain the DES key? | 16:31 |
| bazhang | nah what is the host os? | 16:31 |
| Agent_bob | jramsey i not know | 16:31 |
| lubse | hello | 16:31 |
| DonkeyKong101 | any1 know how i can fix my ubtuntu sounds, like when i click folders...also i have no sound in any program, except skype works fine and movies work fine | 16:31 |
| Agent_bob | jramsey man shadow might have info or look in the docs | 16:31 |
| _ndlovu | ah, found "remote command" option | 16:32 |
| NeT_DeMoN_ | DonkeyKong101: is it set to the alsa mixer? | 16:32 |
| DonkeyKong101 | good question...one sec | 16:32 |
| jramsey | Agent_bob, ok a different way to ask what i really need; linux system 1 is deployed and needs the user to be able to change the root password; however, it is way more convenient for him/her to do it on a separate linux machine, then ftp the etc/passwd file; the key issue concerns me | 16:32 |
| lubse | I would like to merge the Applications/Places/System ... /Rest with the [] <prog> <prog> <prog> [ ]{trashcan} bar | 16:32 |
| Odd-rationale | overlow: How did it go? | 16:32 |
| lubse | is this possible? | 16:33 |
| Agent_bob | jramsey the /etc/passwd file does not hold the password | 16:33 |
| DonkeyKong101 | no all options are my sound card..intel 82801db-ich4 | 16:33 |
| overlow | Odd-rationale: it doesn't still work | 16:33 |
| Agent_bob | jramsey the /etc/shadow file does | 16:33 |
| Odd-rationale | overlow: Your stylus? | 16:33 |
| jramsey | Agent_bob, just a min lemme look at this | 16:33 |
| NeT_DeMoN_ | DonkeyKong101: make sure your volume options are correct in your music players options | 16:34 |
| overlow | Odd-rationale: yea, corsors doesn't move anywhere with stylus | 16:34 |
| NeT_DeMoN_ | DonkeyKong101: are you playing things in the same programs or different ones? | 16:34 |
| jramsey | Agent_bob, so when i see the following, which part is the root password? root:*:13380:0:99999:7::: | 16:34 |
| Odd-rationale | overlow: pastebin your xorg.conf file | 16:34 |
| phantruongdu | bazhang: Use kernel framebuffer device interface? , shoud i say yes | 16:34 |
| Flannel | jramsey: the *, because the root account is locked | 16:35 |
| * Agent_bob patiently waits to farther help jramsey [cr|h]ack a *nix | 16:35 | |
| Agent_bob | jramsey none of it. | 16:35 |
| bazhang | phantruongdu: did you read the link I gave you? | 16:35 |
| Agent_bob | jramsey where the * is is where the password would be. | 16:35 |
| phantruongdu | yes | 16:35 |
| Agent_bob | jramsey that root account doesn't have a password | 16:36 |
| erUSUL | Agent_bob: no the pass is in /etc/shadow ;P | 16:36 |
| overlow | Odd-rationale: here | 16:36 |
| phantruongdu | bazhang: its about reconfigure the card | 16:36 |
| overlow | # xorg.conf (xorg X Window System server configuration file) | 16:36 |

| lubse | is it possible to merge your task bars, into 1 small bar? | 16:36 |
| phantruongdu | bazhang: i have change vn into nvidia | 16:36 |
| Odd-rationale | overlow: I told you to use the pastebin... :) | 16:36 |
| Flannel | erUSUL: That line is from /etc/shadow | 16:36 |
| Agent_bob | erUSUL that was from shadow look at it again. | 16:36 |
| bazhang | phantruongdu: then restart X | 16:36 |
| jramsey | Flannel, Agent_bob ok i am not sure what is going on; if i want passwd on ubuntu system #1 to change the root password on the passwd file on ubuntu #2, can i ftp the passwd (and shadow files) from ubuntu #2 to #1, run passwd, change the password, then ftp the files back and have it all work? | 16:36 |
| lubse | I run GVIM, and the bottom of the GVIM window sits behind my taskbar, which is really annoying | 16:37 |
| phantruongdu | bazhang: ok | 16:37 |
| Odd-rationale | LjL: Hey, I was helping that guy... | 16:37 |
| Flannel | jramsey: why not just ssh in and do it? | 16:37 |
| * erUSUL hides under a rock | 16:37 | |
| DonkeyKong101 | thats the problem....its fine with music and movie players.....but i have no sound at all when clicking anything or getting an error. and under sound options, i can listen to what is suppose to sound like, but nothing :( | 16:37 |
| Flannel | jramsey: Besides, if you're transferring secure files, you should be using scp not ftp anyway | 16:37 |
| LjL | Odd-rationale: unless he restarts his client he won't be back very soon. he's pasting the entire thing | 16:37 |
| jramsey | Flannel, there are user access issues; the user is really green and really can barely log into Windows | 16:37 |
| Agent_bob | jramsey if you are setting a root password in the /etc/passwd file you are on your own. i break my own systems, not other peoples. | 16:37 |
| jramsey | Flannel, i just need to provide them with an automated procedure | 16:38 |
| Flannel | jramsey: then he should not be changing the root password, let alone (probably) have a root account, and admin access is questionable too | 16:38 |
| raiderxx | what is the command in terminal to be able to turn off the terminal but keep the application I opened? | 16:38 |
| Odd-rationale | LjL: ok | 16:38 |
| jramsey | Flannel, that's a non sequitor; they HAVE To be able to change it; | 16:38 |
| erUSUL | raiderxx: nohup ¿? | 16:38 |
| overlow | Vertrefresh43-60 | 16:38 |
| overlow | EndSection | 16:38 |
| jramsey | so i need to wrap a procedure around all of this | 16:38 |
| overlow | Section "Screen" | 16:38 |
| overlow | Identifier"Default Screen" | 16:38 |
| overlow | Device"nVidia Corporation NV17 [GeForce4 MX 420]" | 16:38 |

| raiderxx | erUSUL, how do I make an upside down ? | 16:38 |
| ubotu | overlow: 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) | 16:38 |

| antonsky | hi guys | 16:39 |
| erUSUL | raiderxx: with a spanish keyboard¿? ;P | 16:39 |
| Odd-rationale | overlow: Restart your irc client too. | 16:39 |
| LjL | Odd-rationale, it's no use telling him now, the client is still pasting from before | 16:39 |
| Agent_bob | Flannel just between you me and the channel i think he's trying to learn how to crack a pinguin | 16:39 |
| Kira | Has anybody tried to build and install ImageMagick using the source package from the official website (www.imagemagick.org)? | 16:39 |
| jramsey | Flannel, it's a turnkey ubuntu system; all they need to do is periodically change the root passwd for security reasons; that is it ... ok well i can run some experiments and see if i can make this work thanks | 16:39 |
| raiderxx | erUSUL, lol what about with an american keyboard? | 16:39 |
| LjL | overlow: although you may not notice, you're still pastbing your xorg.conf file, and that will take a *long* while to finish. restart your irc program. | 16:39 |
| hspaans | Kira: why do you want that? | 16:39 |
| raiderxx | erUSUL, just nohup | 16:39 |
| Flannel | jramsey: Ubuntu systems *dont* have root passwords, for security reasons. | 16:39 |
| raiderxx | ? | 16:40 |
| Odd-rationale | overlow: did you restart you irc client? | 16:40 |
| piyush_ | hi ....my system is not giving sound as day before ...its rough..... | 16:40 |
| overlow | yes | 16:40 |
| erUSUL | raiderxx: dunno; maybe a key combination but as i use a spanish keyboard i dunno | 16:40 |
| raiderxx | oh ok | 16:40 |
| Odd-rationale | overlow: OK. dont do that again. :P use the pastebin | 16:40 |
| Odd-rationale | !paste | 16:40 |
| jramsey | Flannel, sorry but this is not really a ubuntu distro ... it's more of a vanilla linux distro embedded in a system, but i figured the passwd issues were universal across all linux distros | 16:40 |
| Kira | hspaans: because the version provided in aptitude is 6.2.4, which is known to have some security vulnerabilities. | 16:40 |
| ubotu | 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) | 16:40 |
| overlow | Odd-rationale: here trhe xorg.conf http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/58749/ | 16:40 |
| Flannel | jramsey: Really, if youre administering this for this guy, you shouldn't need to be asking these questions. If you're so sure using a root account is appropriate, and feel qualified to make that decision, you shouldn't need to be asking these questions. | 16:40 |
| raiderxx | anyone know how to turn off the terminal without turning off my application that I ran through terminal? | 16:40 |
| erUSUL | raiderxx: the command is just «nohup command line» | 16:40 |
| Odd-rationale | overlow: OK got it. let me take a look. | 16:40 |
| Agent_bob | jramsey matters not. the line you posted from the /etc/shadow file says that there is no root password. | 16:41 |
| isaac_ | hello all | 16:41 |
| Agent_bob | jramsey shadow_password is shadow_password no matter what linux it's on. | 16:41 |
| hspaans | Kira: no it doesn't its patched | 16:42 |
| hspaans | Kira: they only backport the security patches | 16:42 |

| === tyczek_ is now known as Tyczek | ||
| Scunizi | sammyF, to install a new printer you are actually using a service called CUPS which has restricted priv. and therefor needs a password to modify.. | 18:17 |
| JJ1 | sammyF - yeah lots of things in /etc/passwd | 18:17 |
| Agent_bob | usr13 no. /etc/rc2.d/S20ssh is a symlink to /etc/init.d/ssh | 18:18 |

| cabrioleur | gharz, it checks the path in your profile and simply autocomplete the names which can find in the path. | 18:19 |
| sammyF | Scunizi: so basically, it should just be my root password, right? | 18:19 |
| Scunizi | sammyF, what are you trying to add? | 18:19 |
| Downsay | KaiForce, I've no idea how to update my kernel (what is a kernel, btw, if you could please explain so I can understand what it is that I am doing so I can learn to become self-dependent in the future) | 18:19 |
| Scunizi | sammyF, yes | 18:19 |
| sammyF | Scunizi: Epson DX 4400 using Guttenberg drivers | 18:19 |
| Agent_bob | usr13 i did however move the section of rc.local contained within {} to an external script and called the external with full path. no change. | 18:20 |
| KaiForce | Downsay, never mind. Danand nailed it | 18:20 |
| Downsay | KaiForce, regardless, I'd like to at least know what a kernel is, if you could explain it simply:S | 18:20 |
| usr13 | Agent_bob: cp /etc/init.d/ssh /etc/rc2.d/S20ssh | 18:20 |
| Scunizi | sammyF, are you doing it through the add printer dialogue from System/admin or from the browser at http://localhost:631 ? | 18:20 |
| Downsay | danand, what do I need to do next? | 18:20 |
| Agent_bob | for some reason sshd just wont start for init | 18:20 |
| Agent_bob | usr13 no. | 18:20 |

| danand | Downsay - the $(uname -r) in the apt-get install etc command i gave you before will give the current version of the kernel you are using - typing uname -r in the terminal will shown your kernel version as 2.6.22-14-386 | 18:21 |
| Agent_bob | v3ctor yes it is. | 18:21 |
| sammyF | Scunizi: through the add printer dialogue | 18:21 |
| JJ1 | anyone knows why the "user settings" screen isnt showing me any users anymore? (i have more then 15 users registered couse of samba, can that be a reason?) | 18:21 |
| danand | Downsay - I don't know ... what are you trying to do ?? :) | 18:21 |
| v3ctor | Agent_bob: no, try having it start later, instead of S20 | 18:21 |
| Odd-rationale | Neeku: Good! Now select hda6 and click "Edit Partition" | 18:21 |
| Scunizi | sammyF, could be.. try through the localhost address.. after the updates | 18:21 |
| usr13 | Agent_bob: Yea, or, creat a new symlink and see if the new one works. | 18:21 |
| KaiForce | Downsay: don get discouraged if you have a tough time with anything. Youĺl get more comfortable over time and it is worth it | 18:21 |

| Downsay | danand, I am trying to update my graphics driver, I have an NVIDIA 8800gts and it said I needed new drivers | 18:21 |
| === warddr222 is now known as warddr | ||
| Agent_bob | v3ctor but rc.local is the last thing to start and it's in there too | 18:21 |
| usr13 | Agent_bob: But never mind, you appear to now want to fix it so give up... | 18:22 |
| sammyF | Scunizi: will do that. I would hate it if she told me to reinstall windows on her machine. It was hard enough to get her to accept LInux in the first place ;) | 18:22 |
| danand | Downsay - have you downloaded the drivers from nvidia?? | 18:22 |
| KaiForce | Downsay: ive had good luck with Envy and nvidia cards | 18:22 |
| Neeku | Odd-rationale: and then "/" for "mount point", right? | 18:22 |
| danand | !envy | 18:22 |
| ubotu | envy is an unsupported tool to install newer versions of binary video drivers than provided by the official repositories. Use at your own risk, and remember that the latest version is not necessarily the "best". See « /msg ubotu binarydriver » | 18:22 |

| Downsay | danand, I am having a problem right now where all of my windows are too large to where I can't even see the tops of them and I cannot even close the windows or access the File, View, Edit, etc menu | 18:22 |
| Downsay | danand, I have not, I do not know where to go to DL those drivers:( | 18:22 |
| Odd-rationale | Neeku: Yes. also for the / partitons mark the bootable flag. | 18:22 |
| Agent_bob | usr13 it's not that. it's just that you are asking me to do elementry things that wont help. | 18:22 |

| sammyF | Downsay: Download->Drivers, choose Linux ... | 18:23 |
| Neeku | you mean "/boot" for hda8? | 18:23 |
| Neeku | Odd-rationale: ^^ | 18:23 |
| Scunizi | sammyF, the other thing you want to verify at the local host address is the paper size. Cups often defaults to A4 and needs to be changed to Letter (for those of us in the US) | 18:23 |
| yeonhoo | how the ubuntu manage program list when what to execute a program that start with "bap" and tap button, ubuntu gives you a list of program that starts with "bap". The question is how the linux manage this things? does ubuntu register on file ??? | 18:23 |
| chi11y | Odd-rationale, yes | 18:23 |
| LjL | sammyF: how is that a good idea? we generally recommend using stuff from the *repositories* | 18:23 |
| Odd-rationale | Neeku: No. There should be a check box on whether you want hda6 to be bootable. | 18:23 |
| danand | Downsay - have you tried looking under the restricted drivers manager? System -> Admin -> restricted_drivers_manager? | 18:24 |
| chi11y | Odd-rationale, @ compiz-switch thingey | 18:24 |
| chi11y | Odd-rationale, thanks I will look into it | 18:24 |
| sammyF | Scunizi: Europe here, so A4 is fine with me :) but thanks for the warning | 18:24 |
| danand | Downsay - or are you using that driver already? | 18:24 |
| Scunizi | sammyF, np | 18:24 |
| Downsay | danand, no, I don't even know what that is or means, what is a restricted driver? | 18:24 |
| sammyF | LjL: it's a good idea because the official nvidia drivers in the repos are buggy | 18:24 |
| Odd-rationale | Neeku: If you you send me a screenshot of the edit partition menu for hda6 I can double-check. :) | 18:25 |
| Neeku | Odd-rationale: you mean the one below 'Format?' column? both hda6 and hda8 are checked and are not active... | 18:25 |
| sammyF | LjL: been buggy since Gutsy came out sadly. | 18:25 |
| gary4gar | how to set the screen resolution in Ubuntu? | 18:25 |
| LjL | sammyF: they work fine for me, and from all i hear, there's more regression in the *latest* drivers. also, regardless, the drivers in the repos are *tested* with Ubuntu, and they won't break on kernel updates | 18:25 |
| Jack_Sparrow | sammyF, Buggy how.. please be specific they seem to work for most people | 18:25 |
| bloody` | suuuure they wont | 18:25 |

| sammyF | Jack_Sparrow: one sec. I'll get you the link to the thread in the forums | 18:25 |
| Downsay | danand, when I go to that list it says: Proprietary Drivers: Lucent/Agere linmodem controller, enabled, not in use..........NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver (latest cards), enabled, in use | 18:26 |
| LjL | bloody`: they most certainly *will* if you get them from nvidia.com | 18:26 |
| sammyF | Jack_Sparrow: depending on the nvidia chip you have, the ones in the repos can cause random hard locks | 18:26 |
| bloody` | ive had rather good luck with them actually, its this laptop that give me torubles | 18:26 |
| Jack_Sparrow | sammyF, Most often it is something else.. Someone that has not set the v/h rates for their monitor | 18:26 |
| danand | Downsay - "restricted" means that the vendor (nvidia) in this case does not supply the source code to that package. ie no one can see how the module works etc | 18:26 |
| Downsay | sammyF, I downloaded the newest driver, now what should I do? | 18:26 |
| Downsay | danand, gotcha, thanks for the explanation, what about the other part, the lucent/agere, etc? | 18:27 |
| Odd-rationale | Neeku: OK. My bad. Forget about that... I usually use the alternative cd. | 18:27 |
| LjL | Downsay, please don't download drivers/programs from random places unless you know well what you're doing (and even then...). as we mentioned yesterday, APT is what should be used to install software, modulo exceptional circumstances. about "restricted" drivers, it means they're not free - not open source. the free nvidia drivers, unfortunately, don't support 3D at all, and i guess they're slower even with 2D, while the official (but non-free) drivers do. | 18:27 |
| LjL | both the free and the non-free drivers are available in the standard APT repositories | 18:27 |
| sammyF | Jack_Sparrow: nah .. in this case it seems to be a known bug | 18:27 |
| Odd-rationale | Neeku: For hda8 set mount point to /home | 18:27 |
| Jack_Sparrow | sammyF, we hava alot more trouble with people that tried to get the ones from NV and failed to get them right when doing it right in the first place will usually fix the problem | 18:27 |
| danand | Downsay - wait one ... i'll download it and take a look .... as for the lucent - thats probably a software modem .... i wouldn't bother with it if you don't need it | 18:27 |
| Agent_bob | v3ctor no change with s/20/99/ | 18:27 |
| LjL | sammyF, does downsay experience that bug? | 18:28 |
| Niklas_E | is there any way to reinstall the sound drivers if you messed the config and stuff up? | 18:28 |
| Downsay | LjL, I just dl'ed what I was told to...so should I just delete what I downloaded from NVIDIA? | 18:28 |
| sammyF | Jack_Sparrow: well .. he asked about "newer drivers" ... that's where I pointed him to, but you're right, it doesn't come without OTHER problems | 18:28 |
| Jack_Sparrow | sammyF, The only nvidia I recommend nvidia drivers for are the 8000 series | 18:28 |
| Neeku | Odd-rationale: OK... shall i go to the next step now? :) | 18:28 |
| eddymvp | when I do modprobe tg3 | 18:28 |
| eddymvp | the system doesn't do anything | 18:28 |

| gary4gar | how to set the screen resolution in Ubuntu? | 18:28 |

| Downsay | LjL, so what drivers should I use? Could you give me some guidance, please? | 18:28 |
| LjL | Downsay, which drivers are you using *now*? | 18:29 |
| sammyF | Jack_Sparrow: the bug I mean is experienced with 7xxx cards .. sorry .. searching for the thread at the moment, I deleted the bookmark I had | 18:29 |
| * Agent_bob walks down to restart sshd so he can try more * to get it to start automaticly | 18:29 | |
| Downsay | LjL, how do I check that? | 18:29 |
| eddymvp | can someone help me to put the driver for my network card | 18:29 |
| LjL | Downsay, what makes you think you need other drivers than the ones you're using now? | 18:29 |
| Jack_Sparrow | sammyF, I have three 7000 series cards at this location and none have ever had issue and do have effects. | 18:29 |
| eddymvp | how do I enable my network card? | 18:29 |
| danand | Downsay - if the current driver/mopdule you have installed is not working for you i would try the one from nvidia.com | 18:30 |
| Downsay | LjL, when I booted into linux it gave me an error and talkd about proprietary drivers, and now I cannot see the tops of any of my windows that are opened whether it be a terminal, synaptic, mozilla, opera, etc | 18:30 |
| LjL | Downsay, do you have Desktop Effects enabled? | 18:30 |
| Downsay | LjL, and this is the first boot back into linux after upgrading from feisty to gutsy | 18:30 |
| eddymvp | anyone? | 18:30 |
| Jack_Sparrow | sammyF, This is all ot and disscussion more than helping people in channel... SO I am dropping it.. I suggest you do the same | 18:31 |
| cottima | hello, I am confused on the server install. It asks the number of active devices for raid1. Then it asks for number of spare devices. So do I put 2 for one and zero for the other, 2 for each, or 1 for each? | 18:31 |
| nemo | Downsay: #compiz-fusion is kind of used to covering that one :) | 18:31 |
| Downsay | LjL, it doesn't look like it because nothing is showing any effect whatsoever when I minimize or drag around a window | 18:31 |
| nemo | Downsay: probably is their most common issue | 18:31 |
| Neeku | Odd-rationale: "Migrate Documents and Settings" can i add all accounts and then later after installation delete some of them if i want? | 18:31 |

| LjL | Downsay, go to System / Preferences / Desktop Effects (i think that's what it's called), and check if it's enabled | 18:31 |
| nemo | as for me. after waiting half an hour it finally booted :) | 18:31 |
| eddymvp | thanks danand | 18:32 |

| Jack_Sparrow | audiosensecd, That is not helpful | 18:33 |
| macogw | JJ1: or no audio | 18:33 |
| macogw | JJ1: or things like that | 18:33 |
| LjL | JJ1: to run some services (such as mail servers for instance) with some safety measures - namely, not being able to get out of their own user | 18:33 |

| LjL | i still don't see what downsay said that somehow makes it clear that the newest version of the drivers from nvidia.com may help. | 18:35 |
| macogw | audiosensecd: if someone can answer, they will | 18:35 |
| sfears | Downsay, make sure system/administration/restriced drivers is installed & enabled | 18:35 |

| danand | eddymvp - ok cabrioleur was right to tell you that .. thats the module / driver for your card. lsmod lists all the loaded modules - that output means that the module is loaded - which is good | 18:40 |

| Jack_Sparrow | audiosensecd, common mistake is for people to setup the video card and ignore the monitor settings.. | 18:45 |
| J-_laptop | darn, fingers too slow to pull the factoid. =P | 18:45 |
| danand | eddymvp - ok, try restarting networking now - type sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart - note your other net devices (if you have any) may need to be reconnected after that command | 18:45 |
| macogw | Jack_Sparrow: my friend's nvidia didnt work if he had lines like that but when i commented them out he suddenly got the right resolution | 18:45 |

| macogw | Jack_Sparrow: he had those horiz lines..a whole bunch of them...and was getting 1024x768 at gdm and the proper resolution once he logged in. when i took out those monitor setting lines, his modes took over and it all had the right resolution | 18:46 |
| usr13 | Agent_bob: Maybe something wrong with /etc/init.d/ssh that simply re-installing will fix. | 18:46 |

| heogen | i can do it | 18:47 |
| Jack_Sparrow | macogw, We are not talking about the same thing, he should have each of those entries only once | 18:47 |
| Agent_bob | usr13 i found the problem i think bashism in the /etc/init.d/ssh script which has #!/bin/sh so i'm testing there. | 18:47 |

| Downsay | Jack_Sparrow, no, I didn't | 18:50 |
| danand | eddymvp - hmmm... ok. you may need to restart udev. I'm not sure after inserting the module for your card that a device has been created in /dev for it -- that may be causing the error we get with restarting networking. try sudo /etc/init.d/udeb reload. ** note - no warranties with that :) ** | 18:50 |
| heogen | thank you 4j laptop | 18:50 |

| Jack_Sparrow | Downsay, I edited that pastebin to try and make it clearer... | 18:50 |
| Jack_Sparrow | macogw, Dont care about Hardy's xorg | 18:51 |
| Downsay | Jack_Sparrow, could you give me a link to the pastebin you're talking about that you edited? | 18:51 |

| Downsay | brobostigon, this is what it gives me: http://pastebin.ca/932420 | 18:52 |
| Downsay | Jack_Sparrow, is this the pastebin you're talking about?: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/58726/ | 18:52 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Downsay, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/58779/ Is the edited version.. and you will need to rework alsa after every kernel update | 18:52 |
| Downsay | Jack_Sparrow, what do you mean rework alsa (and what is alsa? I'm guessing the sound driver?) | 18:53 |
| danand | eddymvp - did you try that last command? | 18:53 |
| J-_laptop | !alsa | Downsay | 18:54 |
| ubotu | Downsay: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer).

| Jack_Sparrow | Downsay, alsa is sound and they also have a very helpful channel #Alsa | 18:54 |
| brobostigon | Downsay: try, sudo apt-get install linux-headers-2.6.22-14-generic, that should work if you have the latest kernel and all recent updates | 18:54 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Downsay, Please also note that when you recompile alsa it mutes everything so you need to go into the settings and raise the levels. | 18:55 |
| danand | brobostigon - Downsay has already installed headers for his kernel - think we done that earlier | 18:55 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Downsay, uname -a will tell you your current kernel | 18:55 |
| Downsay | brobostigon, that didn't work | 18:55 |
| elad | daf | 18:56 |
| elad | hi | 18:56 |
| Downsay | Jack_Sparrow, noted, but I can't even access volume control atm, says something about Gstreaming not found | 18:56 |
| brobostigon | Downsay:what does uname -a say, paste it here. | 18:56 |
| danand | Downsay - did you not install kernel headers for your kernel earlier? | 18:56 |
| Downsay | Linux todd-desktop 2.6.22-14-386 #1 Tue Feb 12 07:12:19 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux | 18:56 |
| Downsay | danand, I don't think I ever got it to work danand | 18:57 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Downsay, Did you compile alsa yet | 18:57 |
| nimroo | how do I get 3D chess to work! | 18:57 |
| Downsay | Jack_Sparrow, I've no idea:( I'm so freaking newb | 18:57 |
| Downsay | Jack_Sparrow, with that being said, I'm guessing I didn't compile alsa...nor do I know how to | 18:58 |
| brobostigon | downsay: sudo apt-get install linux-headers-2.6.22-14-386 | 18:58 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Downsay, Not a problem | 18:58 |
| danand | Downsay - think you did :) - your pastebin earlier said so.... just in case do sudo apt-get install kernel-headers-$(uname -r) - it will tell you if they are already installed | 18:58 |
| Emilian | does ubuntu come with xinetd or inetd ? | 18:58 |
| danand | eddymvp - are you still there? | 18:58 |
| Downsay | brobostigon, here's my pastebin, it didn't work: http://pastebin.ca/932427 | 18:59 |
| Jack_Sparrow | danand, TRhat may have been my pastebin telling him what to do.. | 18:59 |
| genii | Emilian: Neither normally. If you need to install one use xinetd | 19:00 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Downsay, You got this far right ./configure --with-cards=hda-intel && make | 19:00 |
| Emilian | thank you genii | 19:00 |
| genii | Emilian: np | 19:00 |
| Downsay | danand, here's what my pastebin looks like: http://pastebin.ca/932428 | 19:00 |
| JJ1 | any webmin user around? | 19:00 |
| Downsay | Jack_Sparrow, I think that might be from this morning, I'm not sure if I did that or not, but it looks pretty familiar | 19:00 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Downsay, then sudo make install, reinstall libasound2 then reboot | 19:00 |
| brobostigon | Downsay: try, sudo apt-get install kernel-headers-$(uname -r), denand already suggested it, it should work, | 19:01 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Downsay, DO those 5 lines agian.. just to be sure | 19:01 |
| Downsay | which 5 lines, 72, 74, 76, 78, and 88 or something like that? | 19:01 |
| Jack_Sparrow | yep | 19:01 |
| Downsay | are those the correct lines? | 19:01 |
| Jack_Sparrow | yep | 19:01 |
| Downsay | don't want to do something I'm not supposed to be doing | 19:01 |

| Downsay | Jack_Sparrow, ok, let me do those real quick jack | 19:02 |

| Downsay | danand, let me finish what jack's having me do real fast and then I'll do that | 19:03 |
| danand | Downsay - k | 19:03 |

| Agent_bob | vallhalla81 ummm lshw | less might tell you | 19:07 |
| Downsay | danand, when I typed in /etc/apt/sources.list it said permission denied | 19:07 |
| vallhalla81 | Agent_bob: how do you meen? | 19:07 |
| Jack_Sparrow | danand, Much easier than walking people through how to do it manually | 19:07 |
| Agent_bob | vallhalla81 it's a terminal command | 19:08 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Downsay, sudo apt-get install pastebinit | 19:08 |
| danand | Jack_Sparrow - true ... | 19:08 |
| TeslaCoil | [T]ank, is ssh installed? | 19:08 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Downsay, then cat /etc/apt/sources.list | pastebinit | 19:08 |
| [T]ank | yes | 19:08 |
| vallhalla81 | ah ok i will try | 19:08 |
| Jack_Sparrow | danand, we will see if it helps | 19:08 |
| [T]ank | i just tried an outside server... outside the firewall, that worked... very slow... but addresses within my network are not responding. | 19:09 |
| Downsay | Jack_Sparrow, here's the first pastebin: http://pastebin.ca/932440 | 19:09 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Downsay, did you install pastbinit? | 19:09 |
| danand | Jack_Sparrow - just wondering .. if Downsay's sources list is knackered, will he be able to download it? | 19:09 |
| Downsay | Jack_Sparrow, gah, sorry, thought you said paste bin it | 19:09 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Downsay, While we look.. try this sudo apt-get install pastebinit | 19:10 |
| TeslaCoil | Is the machine inside your private network? | 19:10 |

| [T]ank | TeslaCoil: the ones that are failing, yes | 19:10 |
| danand | Downsay - gedit /etc/apt/sources.list will show you the contents of that file. copy and pastebin from there | 19:10 |
| Jack_Sparrow | ProN00b, try cd to folder.. and make uninstall | 19:10 |
| TeslaCoil | [T]ank, what is the command you type? | 19:10 |
| [T]ank | ssh 10.10.5.5 -l <user> | 19:11 |
| ProN00b | Jack_Sparrow, no rule to make target uninstall | 19:11 |

| ellevoros | ies with subs??? | 19:11 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Downsay, Well done.. success | 19:11 |
| vallhalla81 | Agent_bob: i am no sure what bit i should be looking for | 19:12 |
| Downsay | danand, here's the pastebin: http://pastebin.ca/932448 | 19:12 |
| ellevoros | how can we play avi movies with suds??? | 19:12 |
| rambo3 | ellevoros, vlc? | 19:12 |
| Downsay | Jack_Sparrow, lol, not sure what I did successfully to be honest with you...does this mean I now return to line 85? | 19:12 |
| TeslaCoil | [T]ank, I'm not a guru here, but try ssh user@10.10.5.5 | 19:13 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Downsay, Hole for one sec.. fyi the last line http://paste.stgraber.org/1281 would have saved you a lot of trouble.... | 19:13 |
| ellevoros | the subs is separate !!! | 19:13 |
| vallhalla81 | Agent_bob: its ok i found it thank you | 19:13 |
| [T]ank | TeslaCoil: same result | 19:13 |
| Downsay | Jack_Sparrow, sure, I can hold, no prob | 19:14 |

| Downsay | danand, hey man, did you check out that pastebin? | 19:14 |
| eddymvp | hey danand | 19:14 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Downsay, cat /etc/apt/sources.list | pastebinit returns a link to the pastebin so you dont need to do it | 19:14 |
| eddymvp | I want to thank you for taking the time to help me | 19:14 |
| danand | eddymvp - hello | 19:14 |
| eddymvp | I really appreciated | 19:14 |
| [T]ank | ubuntu 7.10 | 19:14 |
| Jack_Sparrow | danand, That is sweet eh? | 19:14 |
| Downsay | Jack_Sparrow, what's that mean jack? I'm not really sure | 19:14 |
| ng0n | ubuntu is the answer for me. | 19:14 |
| danand | Downsay - yes ... your sources looked fine | 19:14 |
| ng0n | i can't BELIEVE how easy it is to update. | 19:15 |
| danand | eddymvp - did that work? | 19:15 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Downsay, not a problem... danand I am going to go lay down for a bit.. thanks for helping him | 19:15 |
| Downsay | Jack_Sparrow, so in order to pastebin something do I still need to copy/paste it all into the pastebin.ca? | 19:15 |
| ProN00b | Jack_Sparrow, any other idea how to remove something installed with make ? | 19:15 |
| Jack_Sparrow | danand, I agree sources look fine | 19:15 |
| Downsay | Jack_Sparrow, thanks for the help mate!! | 19:15 |
| Jack_Sparrow | ProN00b, no | 19:15 |
| eddymvp | modprobe tg3 seems to do the job | 19:15 |
| TeslaCoil | [T]ank, with firewall? Is your router configured to enable a firewall for internal traffic? | 19:15 |
| profanephobia | I need help burning a dual layer dvd please | 19:15 |
| eddymvp | but I had to enable the device | 19:15 |
| Downsay | danand, do you know what step I need to be taking next to get my alsa working? | 19:15 |
| eddymvp | system>administrator>network | 19:15 |

| Jack_Sparrow | Downsay, I am looking to see if there is an error on that line... Do you know your video card type | 19:16 |
| danand | eddymvp - if you want that module to be auto loaded every time you boot add the name of that module to /etc/modules | 19:16 |
| [T]ank | TeslaCoil: iptables is empty and the network is wide open on the inside... the machines i am attempting to shell into are reachable from other users in the office | 19:16 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Downsay, sound card type | 19:17 |
| Jack_Sparrow | sorry | 19:17 |
| samuca | hi, I'm a brand newby and need help for installing an hp officejet 4225, can anyone tell me whwr to get it, I've been to all forums, searched allover and followed all kinds of instructions and xsane simply doesn't recognize the printer/scanner, even when lsusb shows it clearly and sane has the driver | 19:17 |
| TeslaCoil | [T]ank, are you all in the same router, or is there a second router or more in between? | 19:17 |
| [T]ank | same | 19:18 |
| danand | eddymvp - that way you won't have to do modprobe tg3 every time you boot. just add tg3 to the end of that file on a line by itself and that should do it. you'll need to be root to edit that though | 19:18 |
| [T]ank | even shelling into outside public servers takes a very long time. | 19:18 |
| Downsay | Jack_Sparrow, realtek HD I believe | 19:18 |
| [T]ank | acts like dns is not set up correctly. | 19:18 |
| TeslaCoil | samuca, there is an hp tool that you can download. Perhaps it's already installed. | 19:18 |
| samuca | hplip ? | 19:19 |
| TeslaCoil | samuca, yes | 19:19 |
| exdeath | acumas | 19:19 |
| TeslaCoil | [T]ank, that's another possibility | 19:19 |
| TeslaCoil | Are you on D | 19:19 |
| TeslaCoil | [T]ank, are you on DHCP? | 19:20 |
| [T]ank | yes | 19:20 |
| samuca | tried it and it also doesn't do it, amazing, the funny thing is that it was working perfectly untill I tried to install a flatbed scanner and something screwd up the configuration | 19:20 |
| tomd123 | does anyone know how to not show the splash screen in ubuntu when you hit the shutdown button | 19:20 |

| TeslaCoil | [T]ank, I think if you type in an ip address, DNS is irrellevant. | 19:21 |
| [T]ank | correct | 19:21 |
| [T]ank | that is just how it is acting | 19:21 |

| [T]ank | ok... so i restarted my network... ssh is working in and out... but just takes forever! any ideas on what would make it respond so slowly? | 19:23 |
| [T]ank | like 20 seconds to ssh into a computer 10 feet away | 19:24 |
| Squawk | [T]ank, bad ssh config? | 19:24 |
| Downsay | Jack_Sparrow, this is what it says after that line: cat: /proc/asound/cards: No such file or directory | 19:24 |
| platyhelminth | how can i increase brightness ? | 19:24 |
| [T]ank | what could I look for? can i ssh my entire config? I have not touched it, should be default | 19:25 |
| Squawk | mrpockets, you could hav ea look at your $PATH and then go to each directory listed and have a look at all the commands available (but I wouldnt) | 19:25 |
| mrpockets | its a system monitor | 19:25 |
| mrpockets | like GLmon to soemthing | 19:25 |
| mrpockets | you know what i'm talking about? | 19:25 |
| Squawk | [T]ank, authentication is proabably where it hangs | 19:25 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Downsay, SOmething is odd... YOu look to be running gutsy.. but folders are missing | 19:25 |

| TeslaCoil | [T]ank, ssh login is usually slow. If you want to set it up to log in faster, I think you should create a pre-shared key. | 19:26 |
| Jack_Sparrow | danand, Maybe you can figure that one out.. cat /proc/asound/cards works for you right? | 19:26 |
| Squawk | mrpockets, can you tell me exactly what you are trying to do, and I can possibly tell you what you need. What does this system monitor do? ie, what aspects of the system | 19:26 |

| brennaotoole | I'm quite new to Ubuntu. I had assistance in getting MS Word to work under Wine (sadly, Open Office messes with formatting too much for me to do my work with it), but now Word crashes whenever I attempt to open more than one document or attempt to save a document. I'm assuming that an update to Wine is causing the problem. How do I backtrack to the last version of Wine? | 19:27 |
| mrpockets | just have no idea what its called, so i can't launch it :( | 19:27 |
| Squawk | mrpockets, conky? | 19:27 |
| Squawk | mrpockets, lmsensors? | 19:27 |
| TeslaCoil | [T]ank, it looks for several authentication methods and has a list priorities which to try first, | 19:27 |
| Squawk | mrpockets, what did you apt-get exactly? or is that waht you cant remember? | 19:27 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Downsay, There is more to this problem than meets the eye.. and I am not up to it right now.. someone will help, or try #Alsa, or find me later.. | 19:28 |
| TeslaCoil | [T]ank, it will try pre-shared key first I believe. Then something else and then password. | 19:28 |
| mrpockets | lol | 19:28 |
| platyhelminth | how can i increase brightness ???? | 19:28 |
| mrpockets | thats what i cant remember! | 19:28 |
| Downsay | Jack_Sparrow, thanks a lot for your help, I'll try #alsa | 19:28 |
| danand | Jack_Sparrow - kinda wierd that one... try a reinstall of alsa perhaps?? | 19:28 |
| [T]ank | ok, so when i ssh in fedora its screaming fast... now in ubuntu its really slow. so if you are able to assist me in making the changes i need to authentication I would appreciate it. | 19:28 |
| [T]ank | where should I be looking? | 19:28 |
| [T]ank | ssh-config? | 19:28 |
| v3ctor | platyhelminth: education....sorry, couldn't resist | 19:28 |
| Jack_Sparrow | platyhelminth, Instead of repeating the same question, include your hardware info etc | 19:28 |
| TeslaCoil | debian, Wireless electricity perhaps not, but wireless transfer of energy...yes | 19:29 |
| Skrat | Brb | 19:29 |
| platyhelminth | nobody answer me | 19:29 |
| Squawk | mrpockets, have a look in your logs? | 19:29 |
| platyhelminth | i have no choice | 19:29 |
| mrpockets | oh it was months ago | 19:29 |
| Jack_Sparrow | danand, I was trying to get him to recompile alsa but nothing is where I expect it to be | 19:29 |
| v3ctor | platyhelminth: if we con't answer, we probably don't know | 19:29 |
| mrpockets | ima pothead man, i cant remember shit like that | 19:29 |
| TeslaCoil | [T]ank, ssh-keygen | 19:29 |
| v3ctor | s/con't/don't/ | 19:29 |
| Squawk | mrpockets, ok can you describe what it looked like? ie, did it ouput just to terminal, or was their a gui? | 19:29 |
| mrpockets | there was a gui | 19:30 |
| danand | Jack_Sparrow - ok, will come back to that in a bit... got to pop out for a bit | 19:30 |
| mrpockets | but it was sketchy looken | 19:30 |
| Jack_Sparrow | cya | 19:30 |
| mrpockets | just a think column | 19:30 |
| mrpockets | thin* | 19:30 |
| TeslaCoil | This is as far as my knowledge goes on this subject. You can read up on in in the man-pages. I've never tried it | 19:30 |
| Squawk | mrpockets, ahh ok, try running "conky" at command line | 19:30 |
| mrpockets | it was somehting like gkmonitor | 19:30 |
| mrpockets | nah thats noti t | 19:31 |

| mrpockets | YES | 19:31 |
| [T]ank | still slow after generating a key | 19:31 |
| Squawk | gkrellm | 19:31 |
| [T]ank | 20 seconds | 19:31 |
| mrpockets | hm | 19:31 |
| mrpockets | no | 19:31 |

| Squawk | mrpockets, I misspelled the first time, no r after the g | 19:31 |
| mrpockets | yeah | 19:31 |

| spyware---- | Anyone know something about ssh-tunneling? i've read many guides but it still dont work but i think i have the right settings? check the pic: http://hostbay.mine.nu/upload/sshtunnel.JPG | 19:31 |
| ks3 | [T]ank: i've seen reverse dns issues cause slow logins if the server is set to do a reverse lookup | 19:32 |
| Downsay | danand, I'm here, what are you talking about? | 19:32 |
| TeslaCoil | [T]ank, you need to tell ssh where it can find the key | 19:32 |
| [T]ank | ks3: how do i know if i am set to do reverse lookup? | 19:32 |
| Squawk | spyware----, I could be wrong, but that looks suspiciously like windows | 19:32 |
| TeslaCoil | I don't know how. | 19:32 |
| TeslaCoil | There's more to it than just create a key. | 19:33 |
| spyware---- | Squawk i have a sshserver on my ubuntuserver | 19:33 |
| ks3 | you can use dig... dig -x your.ip.address | 19:33 |
| Squawk | spyware----, maybe so, but you are configuring a client in windows | 19:33 |

| foka_ | Hi! I'm wondering: In the latest gutsy kernel, where may I find snd-hda-intel.ko? | 19:34 |
| ks3 | [T]ank: something like you.ip.address.reversed.in-addr.arpa IN PTR your.host.name | 19:34 |
| foka_ | I am looking at http://packages.ubuntu.com/gutsy/i386/linux-image-2.6.22-14-386/filelist , and I can't find it. Is it in some other package? Or was it called by some other name? | 19:34 |
| gopi86650 | Hi all, can some one help me with mailx configuration? | 19:35 |

| brennaotoole | I had MS Word 2003 working under wine in Feisty up until last week. I did a system update on Monday and now Word crashes when saving or opening more than 1 document. What's the best way to fix this issue? Should I try to rollback my updates? I don't know how to do that. | 19:38 |
| orudie | anyone here running 64 bit 7.10 server edition ? | 19:38 |
| foka_ | Downsay, sudo apt-get install linux-ubuntu-modules | 19:38 |

| Downsay | Couldn't find package linux-ubuntu-modules | 19:39 |
| makaveli8 | i'm tryin to get acrobat pro working, man its being a pain | 19:39 |
| foka_ | Downsay, lum = linux-ubuntu-modules according to http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-532424.html | 19:39 |
| ks3 | [T]ank: for instance... if my ip address is 192.168.1.10, and hostname is test.domain.com, dig should show something like 10.1.168.192.in-addr.arpa IN PTR test.domain.com | 19:39 |

| makaveli8 | virtualbox seemed like a hassle, was wonderin if theres another way around it | 19:41 |
| Downsay | foka_, it's installing something | 19:42 |
| foka_ | Downsay, (I'm using Debian, and the kernel packages are organized slightly differently. :-)) | 19:42 |
| foka_ | Downsay, After that, "sudo modprobe snd-hda-intel" should work. | 19:43 |
| foka_ | Downsay, If it can find the module, try rebooting. :-) | 19:43 |

| Downsay | FATAL: Module snd_hda_intel not found. | 19:44 |
| Downsay | foka_, so I should reboot now? | 19:44 |
| foka_ | Downsay, Yes, looks good. It is installing. | 19:44 |

| foka_ | Downsay, Wow, already playing? :-) | 19:47 |
| Downsay | foka_, yep, but not sure it's entirely fixed | 19:47 |
| foka_ | Downsay, Reboot, or at least restart "X" | 19:47 |
| BillyJoe | how to you recreated lilo or grub? | 19:48 |
| Downsay | foka_, ok, what do you mean by restart "x" | 19:48 |
| Downsay | foka_, you mean restart linux? | 19:48 |
| foka_ | Downsay, logout and re-login. | 19:48 |

| carrera | geirha, do i still need to install the Dev package | 19:52 |
| filthpig | and your files are mp3 and aac or smth? | 19:52 |
| carrera | geirha, is that where the header files are? | 19:52 |
| geirha | carrera: yes, header files are typically in the -dev packages | 19:52 |
| filthpig | and your files are mp3 and aac or smth? Downsay? | 19:52 |
| foka_ | Downsay, As for sharing files from Windows XP, I think Ubuntu can already mount it for you (using a tool called "ntfs-3g"), but again, since I'm not using Ubuntu right now (I'm using Debian, which is similar, but still differs somewhat), other experts here would be much more qualified. :-) | 19:53 |
| joseph_ | can anyone help me with virtual box? | 19:53 |
| foka_ | filthpig, Thank you for helping Downsay! :-) | 19:53 |

| Downsay | foka_, I'm not sure how to mount my HDD from windows | 19:54 |
| filthpig | foka_, you're right, and ntfs-3g is enabled by default, so there is no prob :) | 19:54 |
| Downsay | filthpig, they are M4a's I believe (I think that's what itunes converts my music to when I burn a cd to my comp) | 19:54 |
| filthpig | Downsay, ubuntu mounts them automagically :) | 19:54 |
| Downsay | filthpig, how do I access my windows HDD? | 19:54 |

| mirak | I created a backup of my hard drive with dd. Now I would like to know how to mount it as a device, does anyone knows a tutorial to do that ? | 19:56 |
| filthpig | Downsay, it's probably called sda1 or something like that | 19:56 |
| km1nd1 | hi | 19:56 |
| genii | mirak use the same method as mounting an iso file | 19:56 |

| orudie | bazhang: are you there? | 19:56 |
| km1nd1 | why is there an eth6 interface when i have only two interfaces in use? | 19:56 |
| Paddy_EIRE | filthpig, you should just let Downsay use the !grub guide ubotu gave earlier... the community docs are there for a reason :P | 19:57 |
| macrobad | orudie: I don't know exactly which version of Ubuntu you are referring to, but suppose it is called BIND. | 19:57 |
| ifireball | mirak: did you dd the whole drive or just a particular partition? | 19:57 |
| orudie | macrobad: 7.10 | 19:57 |
| orudie | macrobad: so do you think its bind ? | 19:57 |
| Downsay | Paddy_EIRE, I'm trying to learn, this is day 2, when you are brand new those guides are EXTREMELY overwhelming | 19:57 |
| filthpig | Paddy_EIRE, grub doesn't help with codecs and stuff ;) | 19:57 |
| carrera | geirha, i found libssl-dev. apt-get installs an additional pkg too - namely zlib1g-dev | 19:57 |
| yeonhoo | how can I know if a file is linked file or no ?? is there any command to discover? | 19:58 |
| mirak | genii: yes but on wich file system ... | 19:58 |
| yeonhoo | how can I know if a file is linked file or no ?? is there any command to discover? | 19:58 |
| mirak | ifireball: whole drive for a rescue | 19:58 |
| ifireball | yeonhoo: ls -l on the command line will show you if the file is a symlink | 19:58 |
| macrobad | orudie: BIND is the most popular DNS server, so it would be logical. What is more, utilites like dig belong to the BIND toolkit. | 19:58 |
| filthpig | I agree with Downsay on that, I'd prabably never continued using ubuntu were it not for the awesome help I've been getting here.. Those guides are often too much for a newbie.. | 19:59 |
| geirha | carrera: install it and try :) | 19:59 |

| genii | mirak: Ah, if you did the entire drive the loop mount trick won't work right, just on partitions (which it will have a filesystem type to use on) | 19:59 |
| yeonhoo | is that symlink? | 19:59 |
| Paddy_EIRE | filthpig, one thing at a time mate ;) | 19:59 |
| vrkhans | does any one know any player | 19:59 |
| carrera | geirha, it should work | 19:59 |

| macrobad | orudie: BIND is often merely called named, as Apache is often reffered to as httpd. | 19:59 |
| sethk | genii, you can link to the entire drive | 20:00 |
| === credible_ is now known as credible | ||
| km1nd1 | vrkhans: try amarok as a replacement for windows media player, itunes | 20:00 |
| sethk | genii, you just need to use an offset to skip the first track | 20:00 |
| ifireball | mirak: that makes your life harder since the "loopback" option for mount can only mount separate partitions afaik | 20:00 |
| ifireball | yeonhoo: no | 20:00 |

| sethk | mirak, ifireball, using losetup it's easy | 20:00 |

| mirak | ifireball: I think I did it but very long ago | 20:00 |
| Paddy_EIRE | Downsay, no | 20:00 |
| sethk | mirak, ifireball, the option is just a short hand for using losetup | 20:00 |
| mirak | sethk: ah !! thanks I remember this command now | 20:00 |
| Paddy_EIRE | Downsay, can you see your windows partition? | 20:00 |
| genii | sethk: Hmm, haven't attempted that | 20:00 |

| sethk | ifireball, no, because you can use mount commands directly after losetup. It's equivalent to using, say, j with tar to avoid a separate call to bunzip2 | 20:02 |
| ifireball | yeonhoo: yes, add the "-h" flag so see human-readable sizes | 20:02 |
| Paddy_EIRE | Downsay, so what do you mean by not being able to see the files... | 20:02 |
| filthpig | ryan_mandelbaum, the gnash is pretty poor, I recommend using the Adobe one.. | 20:02 |
| yeonhoo | ifireball, thank you :) | 20:02 |
| ryan_mandelbaum | Filbert, i have ppc | 20:02 |
| sethk | ifireball, losetup is not a wrapper or a script, it's a standalone program | 20:02 |
| patrickva | Anyone? | 20:02 |
| gmckinney | orudie: check out the following command in a terminal window "dpkg --list" - is shows what is installed - Bind9 is the DNS server | 20:02 |
| patrickva | Can I boot Ubuntu from an external hard drive? | 20:02 |
| foka_ | patrickva, Yes, if your computer supports USB booting and if you know what you are doing. :-D | 20:02 |
| sethk | patrickva, depends on your BIOS | 20:02 |
| Downsay | Paddy_EIRE, maybe this is an easier question: how do I import my music into rhythbox once I've located it? | 20:02 |
| gmckinney | anyone have some advice or pointers on where I can find information in using a PDA/Phone (AT&T Tilt) to allow connection from a ubuntu server to the internet through the pda/phone??? | 20:02 |
| patrickva | Um, okay. | 20:02 |
| Downsay | Paddy_EIRE, all at once, preferably, I don't want to have to click each file | 20:03 |
| filthpig | ryan_mandelbaum, anyway, use the add/remove-tool in your applications menu | 20:03 |
| patrickva | I got this computer last year. | 20:03 |
| ifireball | sethk: so essentially it sets up virtual devices pointing into parts of the file? | 20:03 |
| sethk | patrickva, odds are it can, then, unless it's a dell | 20:03 |
| Paddy_EIRE | Downsay, join #Paddy_EIRE | 20:03 |
| patrickva | It's a Dell. | 20:03 |
| Downsay | Paddy_EIRE, I think I just figured it out... | 20:03 |
| sethk | ifireball, exactly. | 20:03 |
| |Dreams| | does anyone burn xbox 360 backups using linux? | 20:04 |
| foka_ | patrickva, Should work with a Dell too (I'm using Dell and booting from USB Live image worked for me.) | 20:04 |
| sethk | patrickva, Dell has seriously stupid BIOS, but I haven't tried it with every Dell by any means | 20:04 |
| ryan_mandelbaum | Filbert, i allready have all the gnash packages but when i go to install the missing plugin its not there | 20:04 |
| foka_ | patrickva, Again, your mileage may vary. | 20:04 |
| macrobad | patrickva: If I were you, I'd try searching for your external drive in the list of drives to boot from in BIOS. If it is there, it is possible, but I haven't had experience with Dell. | 20:04 |
| patrickva | Okay, macrobad | 20:04 |
| filthpig | Downsay, you'll want the GStreamer plugins to get playback, it's available from Add/Remove | 20:05 |
| ifireball | sethk: so its more like complementary to "mount -o lo", not a replacement, well, carry on then | 20:05 |
| Downsay | filthpig, ok, how do I go about doing that? | 20:05 |
| vrkhans | km1nd1, ya | 20:05 |
| sethk | ifireball, is you strace the mount with -o, you'll see that it runs losetup | 20:06 |
| === km1nd1 is now known as shaap | ||
| gmckinney | anybody??? | 20:06 |
| gmckinney | anyone have some advice or pointers on where I can find information in using a PDA/Phone (AT&T Tilt) to allow connection from a ubuntu server to the internet through the pda/phone??? | 20:06 |
| wx9j | each time I start firefox, it says its already running, and I must close it, any clues ? | 20:06 |
| sethk | wx9j, killall firefox firefox-bin | 20:07 |
| honk_ | Is there a known problem with Evolution showing duplicate folders for IMAP accounts? | 20:07 |
| ifireball | sethk: that sounds kinda weird, well, no point arguing if you went so far to look into it | 20:07 |
| sethk | ifireball, I don't see anything weird about it. You don't recode something that already exists | 20:07 |
| shaap | vrkhans: does it for your to download the file you want the play or do you actually want to play the file in te browser? | 20:07 |
| filthpig | Downsay, in your applications-menu there's a tab called "Add/Remove", open it, and in the top right coner select all available apps, then simply search for gstreamer | 20:07 |
| vrkhans | y | 20:07 |
| macrobad | gmckinner: I guess, only Google. ;) Generally, it depends on the type of connection between your phone and ubuntu. | 20:08 |
| wx9j | sethk, says no process to kill ? have re installed, removed and installed again | 20:08 |
| vrkhans | shaap in the brower | 20:08 |
| vrkhans | its jiust a live stream | 20:08 |
| Downsay | filthpig, so I want the gstreamer extra plugins? | 20:08 |
| sethk | wx9j, do this: ps aux | grep fire | 20:08 |
| sethk | wx9j, when I've seen this problem it is because it never shut down. | 20:09 |
| sethk | wx9j, if that doesn't do it, you'll have to strace it to see what's going on | 20:09 |
| Downsay | filthpig, should I install both gstreamers? the extra plugins and the other one with divx? | 20:09 |
| shaap | vrkhans: there is a mplayer plugin for mozilla firefox | 20:09 |
| Jowi | wx9j, "killall firefox-bin" | 20:09 |
| shaap | vrkhans: the only thing i know | 20:09 |
| shaap | vrkhans: which browser? | 20:09 |
| vrkhans | firefox | 20:09 |
| kbrosnan | wx9j: check http://kb.mozillazine.org/Browser_will_not_start_up#Profile_locked | 20:10 |
| macrobad | gmckinner: I meant, if you connect it via BlueTooth, datacable or infrared, or, perhaps, wifi. | 20:10 |
| ifireball | sethk: an ability for the kernel to mount file as if they were devices rings more basic to my ears then emulating devices in the user space and being able to interpret partition tables, but I guess its a matter of definitions and code structure | 20:10 |
| shaap | vrkhans: then i would suggest to try it | 20:10 |
| mrpockets | so hey | 20:11 |
| mrpockets | Gkrellm | 20:11 |
| gmckinney | Been searching Google for past several hours - very very limited info there - the PDA/Phone allows Internet Sharing using a technique called Tethering - basically it is Internet sharing over the USB port on the phone, but the caviat is that IP packets are transversing the USB connection so the ubuntu side needs to view the USB link as an IP device... no info found so far... argh | 20:11 |
| wx9j | kbrosnan, my browser wont start so the link will have to wait till I dont need it ... | 20:11 |
| mrpockets | any way to make it sit horisontaly? | 20:11 |
| filthpig | Downsay, yes, you can start with that one. You do get more hits than extra, right? I recommend getting all the gstreamer plugins, cus that guarantees 95% playback on all kinds of files | 20:11 |
| daum | hi guys i'm trying to setup trac for this and my apache keeps throwing the error that PythonHandler is an invalid command | 20:11 |
| t3hwiz0rd | how can change a device node from /dev/sdb2 to /dev/sdd2 in terminal? | 20:11 |
| daum | any ideas why? | 20:11 |
| Jowi | wx9j, can happen. especially if flash hangs it. in a terminal type "killall firefox-bin" | 20:11 |
| Corty | hm, what is your benefit, when you add every user in his own group? | 20:11 |
| sethk | wx9j, there are at least four other browsers you can install to see the link | 20:11 |
| kbrosnan | wx9j: though you might have had another browser, just a moment and i'll extract the info you need | 20:11 |
| vrkhans | any one using e17 | 20:12 |
| orudie | how would i extract a package using tar ? | 20:12 |
| Jowi | sethk, kbrosnan: he only needs to killall firefox-bin and restart firefox. | 20:12 |
| Downsay | filthpig, alright, thanks a lot! | 20:12 |
| Corty | orudie, depends. .gz? .bz2? | 20:12 |
| filthpig | vrkhans, are you using OpenGEU? | 20:12 |
| orudie | Corty: .bz2 | 20:12 |
| justnulling2 | can i debootstrap from iso rather then online repository? | 20:12 |
| Corty | orudie, try tar xvfj bla.bz2 | 20:12 |
| t3hwiz0rd | anyone? | 20:12 |
| kbrosnan | Jowi: there are other things that can cause that issue, and he already kill-alled | 20:12 |
| wx9j | when I try killall, it says no process killed. | 20:12 |
| physical | Question regarding Server 7.10: I'm doing a new installation, i have 2 drives set to be a mirrored raid in hardware (nforce 405), why would ubuntu give me both disks as an option to part? | 20:13 |
| filthpig | Downsay, no prob! If there's anything more you need just holler ;) | 20:13 |
| hpham | did you do a hardware raid | 20:13 |
| physical | hpham: yes, that is what i said | 20:13 |
| Corty | orudie, also look at the manpage of tar to understand. extract, verbose, file and bzip2 :) | 20:13 |
| kbrosnan | wx9j: go to ~/.mozilla/firefox/(random_chars).Default and look for "lock" and ".parentlock" files | 20:14 |
| Stwange | how do I use setenv to append to a variable in tcsh? I want to basically do the same as the "export CLASSPATH=${CLASSPATH}:/some/directory/" | 20:14 |
| macrobad | gmckinner: Now it is more interesting. Unfortunately, I don't know the answer, but if you ask people how to make a USB device appear as, e.g., an ethernet card, someone might help you. | 20:14 |
| Jowi | wx9j, how about "firefox -browser"? | 20:14 |
| ifireball | Stwange: pretty much the same syntax only without the equal sign | 20:14 |
| filthpig | Downsay, also check out !medibuntu for more info on codecs etc | 20:15 |
| fugfgfhugd | I just downloaded and burned the alternative Ubuntu installer CD for desktops (7.10). So far, so good. I have this brand new laptop from HP ("Compaq 6720s") (which I am using right now, and which I burned from) which I try to install Ubuntu on with the CD. However, as soon as the "LOADING LINUX KERNEL" thing is done, it goes black to a screen that flashes by that says something about "starting...deamon..." and then | 20:15 |
| fugfgfhugd | to load for an eternity. At this point, I just give up. So... what is wrong here? Is my hardware not supported? It's a normal, cheap x86 laptop of a major brand! | 20:15 |
| danand | Stwange - have you taken a look in your .tcshrc file? May have the correct syntax in there | 20:15 |
| wx9j | Jowi, same results, no process killed, I even did a reboot with same results. | 20:15 |
| enneth | Is it possible to get an English version of dvd95? No matter what I try it is in French. | 20:15 |
| macrobad | gmkinner: I believe I have seen a tutorial, explaining how to solve a similar problem, but the guy was using bluetooth there. | 20:15 |
| orudie | !webmin | 20:16 |
| 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. | 20:16 |
| Niklas_E | anyone know how to reinstall the alsa module (I think my atempt to install another driver erased it) | 20:16 |
| orudie | !ebox | 20:16 |
| ubotu | ebox is a web-based GUI interface for administering a server. It is designed to work with Ubuntu/Debian style configuration management. See the plans for Hardy at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EboxSpec | 20:16 |
| Jack_Sparrow | fugfgfhugd, At start or install press F6 and remove splash and quiet from the command line and try that | 20:16 |
| ifireball | fugfgfhugd: probably the usual case of less-then optimally supported screen hardware, try to see if you can boot the CD with a failsafe option | 20:16 |
| fugfgfhugd | Jack_Sparrow: There is no "splash"... it's the text installer... | 20:16 |
| Stwange | thanks ifireball, that worked perfectly :) | 20:16 |
| hailflex | can anyone answer me if i download the ubuntu 7.10 full i can install over my 6.06 and update it? | 20:16 |
| Downsay | filthpig, once I have downloaded those gstreamers, do I have to do anything with them or are they automatically going to work now? | 20:16 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Niklas_E, Make sure you use ver 15 and not 16 | 20:16 |
| fugfgfhugd | ifireball: Failsafe what? In BIOS settings? | 20:16 |
| filthpig | fugfgfhugd, is the model brand new too? There is often some troubles with completely new computers as they might contain hardware that is not supported in the kernel.. | 20:16 |
| Jack_Sparrow | fugfgfhugd, sorry, yea, force of habbit | 20:17 |
| gmckinney | The interesting thing is the pda/phone is recognized by ubuntu and shows up in the /proc/bus/usb tables (Bus 004 Device 002: ID 0bb4:0b0b High Tech Computer Corp.) so I am thinking there should be a method to link to the device as if it were a network device - just not sure where to begin... | 20:17 |
| fugfgfhugd | I doubt the model s perfectly new... | 20:17 |
| filthpig | Downsay, they'll be working straight away | 20:17 |
| fugfgfhugd | But it was just bought today. | 20:17 |
| macrobad | wx9j: Why don't you try 'firefox -no-remote' | 20:17 |
| danand | Niklas_E - try sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart to see if that helps | 20:17 |
| fugfgfhugd | Came with disgusting Windows Vista. | 20:17 |
| ifireball | fugfgfhugd: as in a kernel parameter, the CD should present some help screens describing what parameters are available before trying to boot | 20:17 |
| Jowi | hailflex, no. you can upgrade from LTS to LTS. if you upgrade from LTS to another version you need to upgrade all versions inbetween | 20:17 |
| fugfgfhugd | Jack_Sparrow: I already looked through its BIOS settings and found nothing of the kind. Maybe I didn't look hard enough. | 20:17 |
| kbrosnan | wx9j: did you have any success with my suggestion? | 20:17 |
| Jack_Sparrow | fugfgfhugd, THe first two options I try after that are noapic and acpi=off | 20:17 |
| Jowi | !upgrade > hailflex (see priv message) | 20:17 |
| Jack_Sparrow | fugfgfhugd, not the bios settings... do you have the live cd as well | 20:18 |
| fugfgfhugd | Alright. I shall "change stuff" in the BIOS settings and then re-try. | 20:18 |
| Jowi | hailflex, 6.06 (dapper) is an LTS (Long Term Support) version | 20:18 |
| hailflex | i read it thx jowi | 20:18 |
| fugfgfhugd | What? No. | 20:18 |

| Jack_Sparrow | the alt cd | 20:19 |
| coreyo | has anyone here ever successfully set up an ad-hoc connection between their windowsXP box and a linux box? When I set one up in windows, I see no way to manually tell it to use the new ad-hoc connection. | 20:19 |
| fugfgfhugd | Jack_Sparrow: I get the list of options. | 20:19 |
| fugfgfhugd | And pressing F6 doesn't seem to actually give any options. | 20:19 |
| Jack_Sparrow | fugfgfhugd, and at that screen when you hit F6 do you get access to the command line | 20:19 |
| filthpig | Downsay, did you download all the codecs? | 20:19 |
| fugfgfhugd | Well... I guess. | 20:19 |
| fugfgfhugd | It lets me select "expert" mode. | 20:19 |
| orudie | once ebox is installed, how can i access it ? | 20:20 |
| Downsay | filthpig, yes, I did...maybe I need to restart rhythmbox | 20:20 |
| Downsay | filthpig, yep, that's all it was, just needed to restart rhythmbox | 20:20 |

| Flannel | BillyJoe: You don't. Just subtract 1 from each | 20:30 |
| danand | Stwange - what is the command your trying to run | 20:30 |
| Flannel | BillyJoe: (convert a,b,c,etc to 1,2,3,4) then subtract 1, since GRUB uses 0 instead of 1 as a base | 20:30 |

| bwolfe | gilster32, keithclark, heron alpha 6 was released today...perhaps the main repos are just flooded? | 20:37 |
| bwolfe | there are pleny of mirror repos to choose from. have you tried those? | 20:37 |
| gilster32 | bwofle:oh ok | 20:37 |
| gilster32 | bwofle:thanks | 20:37 |
| keithclark | bwolfe, that makes sense! No, I've not tried that....you have to do that through Snaptic? | 20:37 |
| * filthpig installs KDE on his Win XP Virtual Machine | 20:37 | |
| bwolfe | orudie: there is a #ebox channel here on freenode...perhaps they can help you? | 20:38 |
| filthpig | anyone tried that? | 20:38 |
| ArthurArchnix | danand instead of pressing up to your command, try ctrl+r then start typing... | 20:38 |
| bwolfe | orudie: do a /join #ebox | 20:38 |
| ArthurArchnix | danand: oops... sorry, misdirected. | 20:39 |
| bwolfe | keithclark: either through System-->Administration-->software sources | 20:39 |
| keithclark | bwolfe, never mind. I found out how. Thanks. | 20:39 |
| orudie | filthpig: yes i asked the same question in there, no one is responding | 20:39 |
| danand | ArthurArchnix - useful tip for all though :) | 20:39 |
| |Dreams| | does anyone burn xbox 360 backups using linux? | 20:39 |
| keithclark | bwolfe, nope, they all seem busy.....it must be the new release as you stated. | 20:39 |
| ArthurArchnix | danand: A real time saver for those of us who don't know sed... :) | 20:39 |
| orudie | tried #ebox didnt help | 20:40 |
| orudie | no one is responding | 20:40 |
| filthpig | orudie, what were your experiences? | 20:40 |
| Squawk_ | orudie, give it time, some channels are not busy | 20:40 |
| orudie | filthpig: no experience with ebox so far, just installed it and cant get it cuase its asking for a password | 20:40 |
| bwolfe | keithclark: I'm able to update from the Indiana University gibbon repositories | 20:40 |

| orudie | and it never asked me to create one | 20:43 |
| hailflex | so if i use sudo apt-get dist-upgrade and download the 602mb of archives it will upgrade my 6.06 to 6.10 right??? | 20:43 |
| Prefix | ty | 20:43 |
| keithclark | bwolfe, thanks for the tip. | 20:43 |
| * nhubbard hmm. | 20:43 | |
| Bogus8_ | anyone know of an example of how to draw a table with GD? | 20:43 |

| zetheroo | I am getting a message in the Terminal saying: Blacklisted PCIID '8086:2a02' found How do I unblacklist this ? | 20:45 |
| danand | greasy_leftwing - /usr/src/ may have your kernel sources | 20:45 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !compile | 20:46 |
| ubotu | Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first) | 20:46 |
| greasy_leftwing | danand - theres directories named linux-headers.xx.yyy | 20:46 |
| hailflex | hm... thx... i guess im doin the right thing :P | 20:46 |
| Rageon | hi im running a old version of ubuntu is there anyway to upgrade to new version using update manager? | 20:47 |
| danand | greasy_leftwing - your actual kernel image along with your current config will be in /boot | 20:47 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !upgrade | 20:47 |
| ubotu | For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes | 20:47 |
| danand | greasy_leftwing - what is it you wanna look at exactly | 20:47 |
| hailflex | but my update manager does not show an option to upgrade to 6.10, so im using apt-get dist-upgrade | 20:47 |
| greasy_leftwing | I wanna take a looksee at the soucecode that the kernel is compiled from | 20:47 |
| Jack_Sparrow | hailflex, What version do you have now? | 20:47 |
| Rageon | i dont know what im running now | 20:47 |
| hailflex | 6.0.6 | 20:47 |
| geirha | hailflex: you need to start it with sudo update-manager -c | 20:47 |
| Rageon | i want it so i can use that gfx sexy desktop thing | 20:48 |
| hailflex | i tried that too geirha | 20:48 |
| danand | greasy_leftwing - in that case you need to download the source ... your system will only have a pre-compiled binary kernel | 20:48 |
| geirha | hailflex: hm, try with -d as well then | 20:48 |
| greasy_leftwing | right you are | 20:48 |
| zetheroo | anyone? | 20:48 |
| Jack_Sparrow | hailflex, apt-get update apt-get upgrade apt-get dist-upgrade | 20:48 |
| erUSUL | !info linux-source | greasy_leftwing | 20:48 |

| erUSUL | Rageon: yes | 20:49 |
| cliebow_ | Rag:yup | 20:49 |
| cliebow_ | til april | 20:49 |

| Rageon | ? | 20:49 |
| cliebow_ | oct | 20:49 |
| tucci | firefox seems to become unresponsive very often for me, especially I start loading a video (e.g. youtube) but then click to a different page before that video is finished playing | 20:49 |
| Rageon | mm | 20:49 |
| hailflex | and it says... Cannot install all available updates when i open it with sudo update-manager -c | 20:49 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Rageon, the numbers are the month and yeat | 20:49 |
| danand | greasy_leftwing - you may need to enable "sources" in your /etc/apt/sources.list file... or use synaptics to do that | 20:49 |
| macrobad | Rageon: In order to finde out what you are running use 'cat /etc/*release' | 20:50 |
| Jack_Sparrow | 7.10 2007 month = 10 | 20:50 |
| RB2 | Hi everyone. I have an HP 4siMX connected via Ethernet. I used to print to it from Ubuntu, but for some reason, it stopped working. I see the data received light activity for ~2 seconds and then nothing. Any suggestions where to start looking? | 20:50 |
| Jack_Sparrow | macrobad, lsb_release too ? | 20:50 |
| Rageon | im old greg | 20:51 |
| hailflex | anyone knows where i can find a perfect sources.list to upgrade 6.06 to 6.10? the ones i found all give me errors | 20:51 |
| Ghoul | holy... so many ppl in here | 20:51 |
| Ghoul | http://i29.tinypic.com/34q0itv.jpg | 20:51 |
| Rageon | have you ever drank baileys from a shoe? | 20:52 |
| macrobad | Jack_Sparrow: Yeah, I've been wondering about how to get this information just the other day. :) | 20:52 |
| Jack_Sparrow | hailflex, If you ever used a program called automatix .. upgrading is not likely to work as planned | 20:52 |
| danand | greasy_leftwing - forget that last about repositories | 20:52 |
| Ghoul | after seing this add i decided to switch to ubuntu too | 20:52 |
| alex1 | hi guys. i want to install ubuntu on a core 2 duo macbook pro. should i download the 64 bit version? | 20:52 |
| Rageon | you know me, and uve seen me.. IM OLD GREGG | 20:52 |
| greasy_leftwing | kk, I didnt see anything about source in the .list file | 20:52 |
| Jack_Sparrow | alex1, If you are new to linux, may I suggest you start with 32 bit | 20:52 |
| Rageon | did you check baileys.list? | 20:52 |
| faileas | alexi: you can use either. i use the 32 bit version myself | 20:53 |
| alex1 | Jack_Sparrow, i'm not new to it. I know there's going to be issues with flash, but are there any advantages to 64bit vs 32bit? (other than memory capacity) | 20:53 |
| danand | greasy_leftwing - yeh ... sorry linux-source is in main | 20:53 |
| greasy_leftwing | s'cool, syanptic has it in the list | 20:53 |
| joanki | when typing a terminal command, how do you know if an option has a required argument? i've been looking at the man pages and it doesn't seem apparent | 20:53 |
| gralco | how do i get paint on ubuntu so i can resize my picture | 20:54 |
| hailflex | where can i find a sources.list that wont give me errors when upgrading to 6.10?? | 20:54 |
| Jack_Sparrow | alex1, Mem is the big one.. speed difference is not that great, and wrapping some things to get them working seems to make some people crazy | 20:54 |
| danand | greasy_leftwing - if you wanna recompile your kernel you'll need kernel-package too (and a few other bits like build-essential etc) | 20:54 |
| Jack_Sparrow | hailflex, Post yours to the pastebin and provide us with a link... | 20:55 |
| _google_ | hey! anybody knows howto set in firefox google.com to default? | 20:55 |
| === daveUMR is now known as djbn66 | ||
| Gregmon1 | alex1: I use 64 bit, but I use the 32 bit firefox to reduce the issues with web browsing. everything else runs better (imo) with no java/flash/whatever issues | 20:55 |
| alex1 | Jack_Sparrow, like what kind of things? | 20:55 |
| greasy_leftwing | ok, what do you recommend? | 20:55 |
| RB2 | Without the "service" command, how are you supposed to restart a service? (e.g., cupsd) | 20:55 |
| cliebow_ | RB2:sudo /etc/init.d/slapd restart | 20:55 |
| cliebow_ | RB2:sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart | 20:56 |
| Rageon | whats that new 3d desktop thingy in gutsy? | 20:56 |
| Jack_Sparrow | alex1, I cant be specific, I just see a fair number of people hassling with things in 64 that 32 has no issues running | 20:56 |
| Rageon | called/ | 20:56 |
| Starnestommy | Rageon: compiz-fusion | 20:56 |
| Rageon | !3d desktop thingy | 20:56 |
| cliebow_ | look in /etc/init.d..for servoices | 20:56 |
| dgjones | _google_, go to whichever site you want as your home pages, select Edit-> Preferences and then Use Current | 20:56 |
| Rageon | cheers | 20:56 |
| alex1 | Jack_Sparrow, ok. | 20:56 |
| Jack_Sparrow | hailflex, Post yours to the pastebin and provide us with a link... Do not try to DCC it.. see /msg ubotu pastebin | 20:56 |
| RB2 | cliebow_, thanks! I should have known that. ;) | 20:56 |
| cliebow_ | heh | 20:56 |
| alex1 | Gregmon1, are you using gnash for flash? | 20:56 |
| cliebow_ | pretty easy to write a script called servise 8~) | 20:56 |
| cliebow_ | or service...whatever | 20:57 |
| _google_ | dgjones: I mean in google bar no like web page when I start firefox | 20:57 |
| greasy_leftwing | by etc.. are you referring to the build-essentials dependencies? | 20:57 |
| cliebow_ | servigs | 20:57 |
| danand | greasy_leftwing - take a look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile | 20:57 |

| ree | t.se | 20:58 |
| danand | greasy_leftwing - theres a load of packages you need to recompile the kernel ... that link should explain all better than i can... last time i recompiled a kernel was for a load of debian boxes about a year ago :) | 20:58 |
| Jack_Sparrow | zokorasa, Please lose the caps | 20:58 |
| alex1 | Gregmon1, oh so if i use 32bit FF, i can install Adobe's flash plugin? | 20:58 |

| serena | hi... I am trying to follow this how-to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto however I can't get past the ./configure line | 20:59 |
| Gregmon1 | alex1: once the 32 bit version is installed it then works as per normal 32bit plugins | 20:59 |
| alex1 | Gregmon1, thanks! I'll give it a shot. I can always reinstall the 32bit option. Easy anyway since I'll just keep my home dir | 21:00 |
| danand | greasy_leftwing - tip: your current kernel config is in /boot/config-$(uname -r) | 21:00 |

| Starnestommy | serena: I think you might need an older version of GCC, but I don't know which version was used for the kernel packages | 21:03 |

| joanki | when typing a terminal command, how do you know if an option has a required argument? i've been looking at the man pages and it doesn't seem apparent | 21:07 |
| Jack_Sparrow | hailflex, when that is done sudo apt-get upgrade | 21:07 |
| hailflex | Jack_Sparrow, almost sure i already did this... let me update again | 21:07 |
| Starnestommy | joanki: usually, if the argument isn't in brackets, it's required | 21:07 |
| ArthurArchnix | serena: Here you go... http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/58795/ again, never tried it. But if you're instructions are failing these might be helpful. | 21:07 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Paddy_EIRE, sure.. rdesktop | 21:07 |
| ArthurArchnix | serena: They're specifically for hda intel | 21:07 |
| danand | joanki - whats the command? | 21:07 |
| Itaku | i forgot my root pass and normal username how do i get it back? | 21:07 |
| serena | ArthurArchnix: thanks again | 21:08 |
| LimCore | Itaku: boot a livecd and use it to edit /etc/passwd | 21:08 |
| Starnestommy | Itaku: try going into recovery mode then doing "passwd username" | 21:08 |
| LimCore | Itaku: or google ubuntu root password recovery | 21:08 |
| ercules | hi | 21:08 |
| Itaku | i lost my live cd | 21:08 |
| Paddy_EIRE | Jack_Sparrow, I have tried "Remote Desktop" in system > preferences >.. Is that what you mean? | 21:08 |
| LimCore | Itaku: to set new root password, while being root, just do: passwd and to find out the norma luser name just do cat /etc/passwd | 21:09 |
| FrOstiE | :( | 21:09 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Paddy_EIRE, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/58797/ are my notes | 21:09 |

| egoleo | Jack_Sparrow | 21:09 |
| Jack_Sparrow | hailflex, actually yes | 21:09 |
| egoleo | i have solved | 21:09 |
| LimCore | Itaku: in boot loader choose edit and append init=/bin/sh to kernel... like I THINK and then you will be root right after booting. boot insider text mode, use command: passwd to set new root password, then command reboot and login as root, etc | 21:09 |
| egoleo | ma problem | 21:09 |
| joanki | danand, ls | 21:09 |
| egoleo | thnx so much | 21:09 |

| _google_ | anybody knows howto change googles toolbar address in firefox? | 21:10 |
| joanki | in particular, i want to know if -a -u -i -l -R have required arguments | 21:10 |
| ArthurArchnix | hailflex: I agree with the second jack sparrow. | 21:10 |
| hailflex | Jack_Sparrow, well then ill do it... seems much faster | 21:10 |
| joanki | Starnestommy, doesn't have brackets on the manpages? | 21:10 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Paddy_EIRE, See the link in my notes about setting up a relay for that | 21:10 |
| ArthurArchnix | serena: No, it should read it automatically with that command. | 21:10 |
| danand | serena - uname -r is a command and will auto insert that for you | 21:10 |
| serena | ok | 21:10 |
| Itaku | LimCore: it says root:x:0:0:root:/root:/bin/bash | 21:10 |
| Itaku | so is my pass x? | 21:11 |
| _google_ | anybody knows howto change googles toolbar address in firefox? | 21:11 |

| LimCore | Itaku: are you now logged as root after the init=/bin/bash trick? | 21:11 |
| Jack_Sparrow | :) thanks | 21:11 |
| danand | Itaku - no ... your password is encrypted in /etc/shadow and will not be readable | 21:11 |
| ArthurArchnix | hailflex: And Hardy is alpha right now. You're pretty much guarenteed to not have a working computer at some point this week if you upgrade now. | 21:12 |

| Starnestommy | joanki: there's no reliable way to find that out other than by trying the command yourself | 21:22 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Darkmystere, Are you trying to scan windows files? | 21:22 |
| joanki | i see | 21:22 |
| joanki | thank you... | 21:23 |
| mindy | Is there a graphical XDMCP client on my Ubuntu ? | 21:23 |
| Darkmystere | Jack_Sparrow, no i just want a file i update alot to automaticly update on other partions because it gets annoying...updating 5 installs.. | 21:23 |

| Darkmystere | Jack_Sparrow, I think i found the fix for my sound problem ive installed Ubuntu 8 times...and now im just findng how how i kept fixing sound... | 21:25 |
| darkcrab | the only thing I need to know, is the ubuntu repository has a old version of the engine, is there a way for me to update to the newest clamav engine. | 21:26 |

| Starnestommy | crazyrk: what kind of problems? | 21:26 |
| ArthurArchnix | Jack_Sparrow: Will do. Next time I decide to boot it up :) It's only there for bug reporting, confirming, etc. I don't really like booting into it. | 21:27 |
| antonio_ | ciao | 21:27 |
| Jack_Sparrow | darkcrab, Are you trying to protect windows users or your linux box | 21:27 |
| darkcrab | linux box | 21:27 |
| Jack_Sparrow | ArthurArchnix, http://hg.alsa-project.org/alsa/log/tip/alsa-info.sh | 21:27 |
| crazyrk | I installed Ubuntu on a new SATA2 Drive (HD161HJ Samsung) and I've got error 17 from grub (Can not mount device)... | 21:27 |
| Jack_Sparrow | darkcrab, no need | 21:27 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !virus | 21:27 |
| ubotu | A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21 | 21:27 |
| crazyrk | After some research, I used the livecd to reinstall GRUB, and used MAKEDEV to "make" /dev/sda that didn't exist | 21:28 |
| siebrand | Starnestommy: the report ends with "This has to be a vserver ufs bug". I do not see a reference to a report on the vserver ufs issue, though. That's why I decided to come here. | 21:28 |
| crazyrk | When I have the livecd on the drive and hit "Boot from first drive", it boots, otherwise I get Error 17. | 21:28 |
| ArthurArchnix | Jack_Sparrow: added to bookmarks, since I won't remember by monday. Thanks. | 21:28 |

| adamb | Anyone know offhand how I can turn my system beep off? | 21:35 |
| danand | greg - make sure you try and save all work first ... but to restart X do ctrl-alt-backspace - that will completely restart X and land you back at the login screen - ie any work etc you were doing in the current X session will be wiped | 21:35 |
| joseph | hello everyone | 21:35 |

| olie | Ok, I'm getting convinced that automatix has potentially serous issues. What should I do instead? | 21:36 |
| ArthurArchnix | adamb: That system beep is your post, I think you mean, if you're talking about at boot. You can sometimes set that in BIOS. | 21:36 |

| adamb | it is my post? no im talking about if im in an editor for instance and I just backspace when im already at begining of line. | 21:37 |
| ubotu | olie: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org | 21:37 |

| greg_ | ok, I restarted X and it is not fixed, my resolution is still stuck at very small, and it is telling me I cannot use desktop effects anymore, if anyone could help me get back to where I was | 21:38 |
| Amari | joseph: and there is a key-shortcut... | 21:39 |
| ArthurArchnix | bluefox83: Alsa probably won't be updated in Gutsy. | 21:39 |
| jrib | joseph: oh triple is only in epiphany, double works as realshiva suggests | 21:39 |
| Amari | something with strg + d or something... | 21:39 |
| greg_ | if anyone cares I got here by typing "compiz" in the terminal | 21:39 |
| drcode | hi all | 21:39 |
| bastid_raZor | Jack_Sparrow; that is a good guide. i have a separate /home already. good advice though | 21:39 |
| orudie | can anyone recommend a good aim client for terminal ? | 21:39 |
| ArthurArchnix | greg_: Where were you before? | 21:39 |
| drcode | I install ubuntu alternative, I want to use x11 forward, what minimum I need to install? | 21:39 |
| bluefox83 | ArthurArchnix, well, can you figure a way to fix my headphones, alsa does not see the headphone jack, and there are no sensor settings in the volume control thing | 21:39 |
| ArthurArchnix | orudie: irssi I think it's called | 21:40 |
| greg_ | ArthurArchnix-I was using whatever came with ubuntu, I just installed it | 21:40 |
| bluefox83 | irssi != aim client | 21:40 |
| macrobad | orudie: finch? | 21:40 |
| macrobad | ArthurArchnix: irssi is an IRC client (first of all) | 21:40 |
| ArthurArchnix | greg_: Ubuntu ships with compiz, at least gutsy. You want compiz back as your default window manager? | 21:40 |
| Amari | anybody an idea where i have to copy my broadcom firmware when i have to do it manualy? | 21:41 |
| ArthurArchnix | macrobad: Misread it. | 21:41 |
| ArthurArchnix | macrobad: Misunderstood it. | 21:41 |
| greg_ | If that will fix my problem, for some reason, when I typed "compiz" in the terminal it took me to the logon screen and my resolution and desktop effects were messed up | 21:41 |
| ArthurArchnix | greg_ what version of Ubuntu are you running? | 21:42 |
| greg_ | 7.10 | 21:42 |
| kbrosnan | joseph: yes about:config in the address bar find browser.urlbar.clickSelectsAll double click it to change it to true | 21:42 |
| ArthurArchnix | greg_: And I'm just tuning in, but what's the problem? | 21:42 |
| greg_ | I installed ubuntu today, and everything was great, high resolution, desktop effects, and just messing around I typed "compiz" in the terminal and it took me to the logon screen and my resolution was stuck as the lowest possible | 21:43 |
| ArthurArchnix | greg_: And rebooting didn't fix the problem? | 21:43 |
| greg_ | no | 21:43 |
| hapo | do the kernel images for hardy work in gutsy? | 21:44 |
| ArthurArchnix | greg_ have you tried adjusting it, using the screen resolution app in the menus? | 21:44 |

| mabeezo | no, greg_ actually refusing to boot at all headless | 21:45 |
| olie | Question: Nor frostwire not limewire are part of medibuntu? | 21:45 |
| gregbrady | Is there a reason why Compiz does not work in 7.10? It works in other distros....I must not be doing something right here. | 21:45 |

| ubotu | Cinelerra is a video editor and compositor that cannot be included in Ubuntu for legal reasons. Install instructions can be found on http://cvs.cinelerra.org/getting_cinelerra.php#ubuntu | 21:48 |
| ArthurArchnix | I don't have it installed though... so probably nothing. :) | 21:48 |
| danand | ArthurArchnix - hmmm .... shall i .... | 21:48 |
| ferentz | hi, i have ubuntu server and i want to make it into a router | 21:48 |
| Odd-rationale | issam: There is not very many ones for linux that i can reccomend. However kdenlive seems to be heading in the right direction | 21:48 |
| issam | thanks!! | 21:48 |
| ferentz | dhcp is perfect configured | 21:48 |
| macrobad | greg_: 'dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' from sudo would reconfigure your server | 21:48 |
| ArthurArchnix | danand: It might help greg_ go on.. take on for the team. :P | 21:48 |
| macrobad | Amari: which driver do you use? | 21:48 |
| gralco | can someone please help me install Icon Theme for the GNOME desktop | 21:48 |
| ferentz | i set the iptables rule | 21:49 |
| ferentz | but still not working | 21:49 |
| * danand is not _that_ much of a team player :) | 21:49 | |
| ferentz | i modified sysclt.conf too | 21:49 |
| ArthurArchnix | I could see it starting up a second instance of compiz, but so what, even if that screwed things up a reboot should of straightened it out. Heck, restarting x should've. | 21:49 |
| mabeezo | back | 21:50 |
| [rip]oink | wb? | 21:50 |
| mabeezo | so, anyone ever see ubuntu refuse to boot at all headless, but boot ok otherwise? | 21:50 |
| realshiva | KACKE! | 21:50 |
| ferentz | any ideas of other nat softwares besides firestarter and iptables? | 21:50 |
| realshiva | sry | 21:50 |
| danand | ArthurArchnix - thats whats worrying me ... very odd. unless greg_ had done an sudo -i previously i would of thought that would be ok | 21:50 |
| ks3 | ferentz: so computers inside the network are unable to get to the internet? | 21:51 |
| Amari | kacke? | 21:51 |

| Odd-rationale | xim: Be VERY careful with that command though!! | 21:53 |
| xim | cool thankx | 21:53 |
| danand | xim - thats rm -rf folder_name | 21:53 |
| xim | yeah, i figured | 21:53 |
| ArthurArchnix | not_chawson: maybe wine, or virtualbox if you have a copy of windows lying around... why do you want to? | 21:53 |
| diabliyo | I problem in xubuntu =( | 21:54 |
| danand | xim - k ... just in case :) | 21:54 |
| greg_ | well, it appears that reconfiguring worked | 21:54 |
| danand | greg_ - cool :D | 21:54 |
| not_chawson | i hav a copy of windows handy, i need it to IM ppl. | 21:54 |
| greg_ | even though some of the questions it asked me I don't think I answered the best option | 21:54 |
| ArthurArchnix | greg_ Cool... so, avoid saying "compiz" where your computer might overhear you. :) | 21:54 |
| ks3 | ferentz: what shows up from sysctl net.ipv4.ip_forward? | 21:54 |
| greg_ | lol thanks alot | 21:54 |
| xim | thanks, would "rm -rf" by itself wipe the current directory? | 21:54 |
| ferentz | any idea why my internal network pc cant connect to internet after i configured dhcp + iptables rules + modified /etc/sysctl.conf ? | 21:54 |
| Odd-rationale | xim: with / | 21:55 |
| Odd-rationale | xim: NOO sooryy | 21:55 |
| xim | or a dot you mean | 21:55 |
| danand | Odd-rationale - thats NOT funny :O | 21:55 |
| [rip]oink | ferentz check if can ping numerical ip's | 21:55 |
| danand | Odd-rationale - :) | 21:55 |
| [rip]oink | then try with dnsing ips | 21:55 |
| ArthurArchnix | ferentz: After you did all that? I can think of three reasons why it might not be working. | 21:55 |
| ferentz | i can ping them | 21:55 |
| Odd-rationale | danand: :-[ | 21:55 |
| [rip]oink | check ifconfig - might need to reload /etc/init.d/networking restart | 21:56 |
| macrobad | not_chawson: you may try using Pidgin instead | 21:56 |
| [rip]oink | sounds like dns only is broken? | 21:56 |
| [rip]oink | check dns servers? | 21:56 |
| gregbrady | Is there a reason why Compiz does not work in 7.10? It works in other distros....I must not be doing something right here. | 21:56 |
| [rip]oink | [ideas only sorry] | 21:56 |
| danand | xim - rm -rf * _would_ wipe the contents of your directory - thats why that command can be so dangerous | 21:56 |
| napoleon | to listen a radio on internet, please ? | 21:56 |
| ArthurArchnix | not_chawson: I don't have live, and I can IM people using it. | 21:56 |
| macrobad | gregbrady: It does. | 21:56 |
| xim | right, but that form wouldnt do directories correct? | 21:56 |
| danand | xim - rm -rf by itself would not do anything though | 21:57 |
| Starnestommy | xim: I think so | 21:57 |
| Starnestommy | er, I think it would | 21:57 |
| gregbrady | macrobad: can you elaborate? | 21:57 |
| napoleon | how to listen a radio on internet, please ? | 21:57 |
| danand | Odd-rationale - he'd have to be root to do serious damage with a rm -rf :D | 21:57 |
| not_chawson | arthurarchnix, isnt that a slow way to IM? WLM is very handy as it is made by windows. | 21:57 |
| Odd-rationale | xim: "/" will delete your entire filesystem Do NOT try it. For some reason I thought that is what you were asking. | 21:57 |
| ks3 | xim: -r is recursive... so it would remove directories | 21:57 |
| xim | ic | 21:57 |
| macrobad | xim: rm -rf is not recoverable, that is a trash bin wouldn't help, if anything goes wrong.. | 21:57 |
| ArthurArchnix | napoleon: ... use exaile. or rythmbox, or just about any music manager. | 21:58 |
| Odd-rationale | danand: That is why I did not post the whole thing, or else.... | 21:58 |
| napoleon | no radio only | 21:58 |
| danand | Odd-rationale - :) | 21:58 |
| ArthurArchnix | not_chawson: :D haha... windows live fast... now I've "heard" everything. | 21:58 |
| ferentz | i have this line in /etc/sysctl.conf net/ipv4/ip_forward=1 | 21:58 |

| Flare183 | Odd-rationale: thanks | 21:59 |
| ArthurArchnix | not_chawson: Nah... you wouldn't be able to tell the difference. At any rate, talking to them through pidgin will be a lot better experience than running live under wine or a VM, if you got those working. The second option would be like 300MB of ram, just to chat! | 21:59 |
| macrobad | gregbrady: Generally, there could be only one reason: video drivers. I know that it borks with various ATI cards, but otherwise Compiz works OK on Ubuntu. | 21:59 |
| danand | xim - alot of people alias that command to use mv instead. ie alias rm -rf to mv the args supplied to it to the .Trash folder. that is a lot safer | 21:59 |
| not_chawson | ohh i see, thanks | 21:59 |
| not_chawson | lmao Windows FTW!!!! | 21:59 |

| Flare183 | oops | 22:00 |
| neptyk | SORRY | 22:00 |
| xim | is that in my home folder or in etc somewhere? | 22:00 |

| cottima | debootstrap exits during or before base install on server. (why?) how do I fix? | 22:04 |
| macrobad | overridex: I have the same problem here. | 22:04 |
| Seveas | cottima, broken cd perhaps, run the integrity test from the cd bootmenu | 22:04 |
| farruinn_ | adamb: do a web search for "search algorithms" | 22:04 |
| mandrig | where is the module configuration file located?? | 22:04 |
| gregbrady | Sorry, I got disconnected here..... Is there a reason why Compiz does not work in 7.10? It works in other distros....I must not be doing something right here. | 22:04 |
| danand | overridex - there was a post on that the other day ... apparently its fixable ... have you searched the forums? | 22:05 |
| cottima | seveas checks okay | 22:05 |

| gregbrady | macrobad, I know it works on this machine as I've used it under pclos | 22:05 |
| Emilian | then $array['0'] would be the hostname, $array['1'] would be the ip | 22:05 |

| gregbrady | mandrig, of that I have no doubt. I'm just wondering what I'm doing wrong to enable it. | 22:06 |

| mandrig | gregbrady, are you getting my msgs? | 22:08 |
| Odd-rationale | macrobad: That is a slight bug. do "sudo gedit /etc/gdm/PreSession/Default Near the end of the file you will find a hex code lik | 22:08 |

| Starnestommy | mandrig: he isn't identified to nickserv or registered | 22:09 |
| anonymous111 | bloody`: Thanks. I already had that one open. I didn't know if it was scanning all networks, or just for the one I had previously selected, as there is only one near me. If that's scanning for all networks, then I don't have the problem. Thanks for your help. :D | 22:09 |

| nDuff | issam, I've written some python code to interpret input core events, but don't have it handy -- but it shouldn't be particularly difficult to reproduce. | 22:09 |
| bloody` | anon: you can also manually input a network, which is very helpful at times :) | 22:09 |
| ArthurArchnix | macrobad: It takes on the values from elsewhere if you make it 'x'. Otherwise you gotta come back in there and change the hex when you change the colours elsewhere. | 22:09 |

| anonymous111 | yeah - it's a great applet | 22:10 |

| Odd-rationale | ArthurArchnix: Where does it get the color if you use "x" ? | 22:10 |

I'm connected wireless on the laptop and the desktop is connected to an ethernet port on the wifi router when I do "vncviewer -fullscreen 192.168.2.102:0" I get a username and password entry box and only password is available to use... this fails and gives an authentication error... any ideas | 22:10 |

| ArthurArchnix | Either the login manager or the desktop... I haven't played with it too much. But I do know that when I change the colour of both from black to red, I don't see black (assuming you set a hex value of black). | 22:11 |
| ArthurArchnix | Odd-rationale: right now I don't even see a colour. I've set my login to be plain, no colour with an image. My desktop is the same image. | 22:11 |

| gregbrady | macrobad, I'm not sure what you are getting at there | 22:16 |
| xsystemx | How can I re-install apt ? | 22:16 |
| xyblor | !defrag | 22:16 |
| ubotu | The default Ubuntu filesystem (ext3) is engineered to avoid fragmentation issues in most cases, see http://linkpot.net/behead/ for a simple example on how it achieves this. A package "defrag" is available in !Universe, however its use is not safe, and is generally not needed. | 22:16 |
| Eric_Jardas | can anyone help me with setting up samba to share printer ? | 22:16 |
| St0n3-C0l | Why on boot my screen says 'Out of Frequency' And I've to open linux through recovery mode and do 'init 4' | 22:16 |
| r3n0c | bruenig, it is really really short, it should check if the directory exists, then do an operation. if i don't put that if case in there it works fine | 22:16 |
| xim | cool im looking at it | 22:16 |
| macrobad | It works! | 22:17 |
| Eric_Jardas | can anyone help me with setting up samba to share printer ? | 22:17 |
| xsystemx | sudo apt-get update doesn't reponse and sudo dpkg -i is not working either? | 22:17 |
| usse1 | r3n0c: the closing ] should have space before it | 22:17 |
| ompaul | !samba > Eric_Jardas (the community put together a page on that - have a look at the url the bot sent you) | 22:17 |
| r3n0c | .... lol, great | 22:17 |
| usse1 | r3n0c: its that picky | 22:17 |
| r3n0c | does the directory have to be the whole thing? | 22:18 |
| Eric_Jardas | ompaul, ty | 22:18 |
| r3n0c | like /r3n0c/home..... | 22:18 |
| xsystemx | Anyone know how I can re-install apt service? | 22:18 |
| macrobad | ArthurArchnix: Thanx! | 22:18 |
| r3n0c | or could it just be the ending, from the pwd. /HW/3 | 22:18 |
| danand | r3n0c - try ZIP="HW/$1" | 22:18 |
| [T]an1 | somehow i have made it so that my numlock keys come on whenever x is restarted just for my laptop. If i am plugged into my docking station using a regular keybard it works just fine. however is i am just standalone with the laptop, numlocks is always active. | 22:18 |
| jrib | xsystemx: tell us why you want to do that | 22:18 |
| r3n0c | kk | 22:18 |
| [T]an1 | layout issue maybe? | 22:18 |
| usse1 | r3n0c: no you can specify a relative path | 22:18 |
| [T]an1 | i have a thinkpad t43p | 22:18 |
| macrobad | And the other... guy, thanks! =) | 22:18 |
| bladerunner | I seem to be having a bit of trouble trying to get sound-juicer to rip cd's to mp3. I have installed lame liblame0 liblame-dev and still it doesn't allow me to choose mp3 from the dropdown selection. any idea on how to rectify this? | 22:18 |
| bruenig | r3n0c: it is because you don't have a space after "$ZIP" and the bracket: here is a more sane way to do it: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/58805/ | 22:18 |
| ArthurArchnix | cheers macrobad ... I remember how excited I was too when I finally got rid of it. And the other guy was Odd-rationale | 22:18 |
| r3n0c | woot | 22:19 |
| r3n0c | thanks guys | 22:19 |
| r3n0c | stupid space before the ] | 22:19 |
| Odd-rationale | the other guy... hmm | 22:19 |
| macrobad | Odd-rationale: thanks for your tip! | 22:19 |
| macrobad | =) | 22:19 |
| Odd-rationale | macrobad: np :) | 22:19 |
| danand | r3n0c - i hate errors like that :) | 22:19 |
| raiderxx | I;m having trouble getting music from my backup harddrive to my pc. | 22:19 |
| macrobad | You have an "odd" nick )) | 22:19 |
| jrib | raiderxx: what kind of trouble? what exactly happens? | 22:20 |
| raiderxx | It is saying unable to mount volume | 22:20 |

| monte | hey wat a good dvd movie burning program that it makes audio and video look real nice | 22:20 |
| raiderxx | jrib, it has music from my windows hard drive. Could that be why? | 22:20 |
| anonymous111 | xsystemx: try going to the apt project homepage and installing from source. | 22:20 |
| ArthurArchnix | bladerunner: As I recall, it was a bug in soundjuicer. I messed around with it for a bit, but I seem to recall creating a new profile, calling it mp3, then closing sound juice, then starting it up, and there it was. | 22:20 |
| orudie | how would i add a standard user ? | 22:20 |
| flush | yo | 22:20 |
| flush | anyone runs asterisk on ubuntu here | 22:20 |
| raiderxx | jrib, it says unable to mount volume" | 22:20 |
| r3n0c | ok guys different question | 22:21 |
| bladerunner | ArthurArchnix: this on gutsy? | 22:21 |
| r3n0c | how can i make the script not print anything | 22:21 |
| r3n0c | since i do a zip command | 22:21 |
| bladerunner | ArthurArchnix: I was sure this method worked fine for feisty! | 22:21 |
| ArthurArchnix | bladerunner: Yeah. | 22:21 |
| usse1 | flush: not really why? poor choice of a distribution to run asterisk on | 22:21 |
| r3n0c | it prints out the files it zips | 22:21 |
| macrobad | orudie: Who is a standard nowadays? | 22:21 |
| jrib | r3n0c: that's the full error? try mounting it in a shell | 22:21 |
| jrib | !enter | r3n0c | 22:21 |
| ubotu | r3n0c: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 22:21 |
| bladerunner | ArthurArchnix: I ahve used sound jucier to rip mp3 before!?! | 22:21 |
| monte | raiderxx: wat the problem | 22:21 |
| r3n0c | jrib, works now, lol ok | 22:21 |
| flush | usse1 what you recommand | 22:21 |
| ArthurArchnix | bladerunner: Yeah.. it's a regression. IF you have the same bug that affected me. You still can... you just need to tell it how once. It's forgotten. | 22:21 |
| xobius | r3n0c, > /dev/null | 22:21 |
| r3n0c | can i make the script not output any text, even tho i call the zip command, which automatically prints things? | 22:21 |
| xobius | r3n0c, or program_script >> /dev/null | 22:22 |
| orudie | what is the command to add a user name and set his password ? | 22:22 |
| usse1 | flush: take a look at http://www.asterisknow.org/ it's a linux distribution specially geared to run asterisk | 22:22 |
| raiderxx | monte, Im trying to get music from my external HD to my computer, and it wont open. Says "unable to mount volume 'Kieth'" | 22:22 |
| xsystemx | What is the command to execute GUI util to create users in ubuntu? | 22:22 |
| flush | usse1 thx | 22:22 |
| * danand thinks honnolulu is gonna get himself killed ... he's from Tehran :O | 22:22 | |
| hapo | another question: even if it's not possible to use a binary kernel from a newer version of ubuntu, can one still use the source package and compile it by hand? there are some important patches enabled in hoary and I really have to get them enabled easily. | 22:22 |
| jrib | xsystemx: users-admin | 22:22 |
| ArthurArchnix | bladerunner: I'll open it up now.. I've been ripping oggs lately... smaller file size for equal quality, free open source... all sorts of good reasons. Plus I don't really use my shuffle anymore. | 22:22 |
| hapo | hardy, that is | 22:22 |
| ArthurArchnix | bladerunner: End rant. let me see what I did... | 22:22 |
| bladerunner | ArthurArchnix: I'm still baffled how things can get "broken" on a newer version so easily ;) | 22:22 |
| monte | raider: are u trying to move stuff from one computer to another | 22:22 |
| Eric_Jardas | Can anyone help me with setting up samba to share a printer ? | 22:22 |
| jrib | orudie: system -> adiministration -> users and groups | 22:22 |
| xsystemx | jrib - you are not allowed to access the system? | 22:23 |
| bladerunner | ArthurArchnix: i would use ogg but its for a podcast and I need to be open to all | 22:23 |
| jrib | xsystemx: huh? | 22:23 |
| faileas | raiderxx: it probably wasn't dismounted properly. i think you can force it tho | 22:23 |
| ArthurArchnix | bladerunner: edit preferences, then edit profiles | 22:23 |
| monte | raiderxx: are u trying to move stuff from one computer to anther | 22:23 |
| xsystemx | jrib - the option is not there anymore ? | 22:23 |
| r3n0c | is there any way to stop a script from printing any text? i call commands within the script that print info, can i suppress this? | 22:23 |
| fyrmedic | any idea why rhythmbox shuts down and wont restart if I plug in my old ipod shuffle? | 22:23 |
| bladerunner | ArthurArchnix: i use ogg for my personal collection | 22:23 |
| macrobad | orudie: useradd, I guess. But it won't create a home folder. | 22:23 |
| bladerunner | ArthurArchnix: done tha | 22:23 |
| ArthurArchnix | say new, call it mp3 | 22:23 |
| jrib | xsystemx: it's system -> administration -> users and groups | 22:23 |
| bladerunner | t | 22:23 |
| xim | should i put this .trash alias in my .bash_aliases or .bashrc file? | 22:23 |
| usse1 | r3n0c: call the commands that print the text like that command > /dev/null | 22:23 |
| raiderxx | monte, basically, yes. Music. MP3s. | 22:23 |
| ArthurArchnix | bladerunner: then edit | 22:23 |
| xsystemx | jrib - I swear, system, administration, users and groups option no longer present | 22:23 |
| monte | raiderxx: ok is it from a windows to linux | 22:24 |
| ArthurArchnix | bladerunner: edit the newly created "mp3" I mean. | 22:24 |
| === arnl is now known as Aranel | ||
| jrib | xsystemx: does the command work from the shell? | 22:24 |
| bladerunner | ArthurArchnix: added new profile and edited to add the same code as other mp3 profile | 22:24 |
| raiderxx | monte, yes | 22:24 |
| danand | r3n0c - pipe output to /dev/null ie command blah 2>&1 > /dev/null i think | 22:24 |
| xobius | r3n0c, do pgrep -l name and then pkill complette_name | 22:24 |
| xsystemx | jrib - nope | 22:24 |
| macrobad | orudie: adduser would work too. o_O | 22:24 |
| gavi | folks i installed wine than ubuntu said there was an update for it, i did the update and now my wine doesnt seem like its working | 22:24 |
| jrib | xsystemx: what was the output? | 22:24 |
| monte | raiderxx: plug in hard drive in windows | 22:24 |
| raiderxx | monte, but I don't want to ruin it for windows. | 22:24 |
| bladerunner | ArthurArchnix: then made active, restarted still no luck | 22:24 |
| r3n0c | usse1, what do you mean, never written a script before | 22:24 |
| ArthurArchnix | bladerunner: Perfect.Save it. Close out of soundjuicer and restart. Oh.. really? | 22:24 |
| raiderxx | monte, then remove safely? | 22:24 |
| monte | raiderxx: yes | 22:24 |
| bladerunner | ArthurArchnix: am i missing something? | 22:24 |
| raiderxx | monte, ok! Thanks a lot! | 22:24 |
| usse1 | r3n0c: it redirects all output of the command to /dev/null which just discards it | 22:24 |
| xsystemx | jrib - anything I run example sudo apt-get sudo adduser all does not work? | 22:25 |
| monte | raiderxx: i had the same problem last week lol | 22:25 |
| bladerunner | ArthurArchnix: only 4 options even when more than 4 are active (wav is a no show too) | 22:25 |
| r3n0c | so if i say, zip -r HW$1 Part\ *, and that works, to have it not print anything do: zip -r HW$1 Part\ * > /dev/null..... won't this erase the output of the zip command too? | 22:25 |
| jrib | xsystemx: you need to tell me the exact error you get for me to help you | 22:25 |
| Eric_Jardas | Can anyone help me with setting up samba to share a printer ? | 22:25 |

| bladerunner | ArthurArchnix: this is on a livecd | 22:26 |
| xsystemx | jrib - command prompt is blank, when you press enter, goes user@desktop~!$ | 22:26 |
| kamisalami | is there a backport of the asterisk package in hardy for 7.10 ? | 22:26 |
| usse1 | r3n0c: I think it only redirects output side effects are not touched, hang on lemme try it | 22:26 |
| danand | r3n0c - you may have to redirect standard output and standard error to /dev/null to see nothing on the terminal - thats what that 2&>1 >/dev/null does | 22:26 |
| xsystemx | jrib - is there a way to do a repair install? | 22:26 |
| jrib | xsystemx: don't describe it, just copy and paste what you are doing and the output to pastebin please | 22:26 |
| macrobad | orudie: adduser is Ubuntu's script. It would create all the necessary folders and files. | 22:26 |
| gavi | folks i installed wine than ubuntu said there was an update for it, i did the update and now my wine doesnt seem like its working | 22:26 |
| ArthurArchnix | bladerunner: I think that may be the problem. Let me see if I can track down the bug report that helped me fix it.... | 22:26 |
| usse1 | r3n0c: no it only redirects output zip file is created anyway | 22:27 |
| danand | r3n0c - 2 is standard error, 1 is standard output | 22:27 |
| monte | dvd burner programs? | 22:27 |
| xsystemx | jrib - no errors at all, is there a way to re-install apt-get and admin-users via cd? | 22:27 |
| r3n0c | usse1, yeah, that works. doing > /dev/null gets rid of just the text | 22:27 |
| monte | anyone know any good ones | 22:27 |
| r3n0c | thanks guys, peace out till next time | 22:28 |
| frost0 | where is virtual box installed? /home/user/.vbox? | 22:28 |

| frost0 | anyway i could search for it macrobad? | 22:28 |
| docta_v | i want to remove all the drives from my system and replace it with larger ones | 22:29 |
| docta_v | but there aren't enough bays to do it with all drives online | 22:29 |
| docta_v | so i'm thinking tarball everything to a large external usb drive | 22:29 |
| jrib | xsystemx: how long has this been happening? | 22:29 |
| docta_v | replace drives, untar, re-install boot loader | 22:29 |
| docta_v | is that the best way to do something like that? | 22:29 |
| macrobad | frost0: Sure. If you want to get a complete list of files, run 'dpkg-query -L packagename' | 22:29 |
| xobius | monte, it write DVD iso image | 22:29 |
| usse1 | docta_v: why not use something like dd to make complete images of the drives | 22:29 |
| ArthurArchnix | bladerunner: got this? gstreamer0.8-lame | 22:30 |
| monte | xobios: wats that mean | 22:30 |
| bladerunner | ArthurArchnix: no | 22:30 |
| docta_v | usse1: yeah i guess that would work too | 22:30 |
| xsystemx | jrib - for a week, noticed there was an issue when sudo commands were not responding | 22:30 |
| usse1 | docta_v: or better yet use partimage | 22:30 |
| xobius | monte, install and try to do it | 22:30 |
| xim | SHOuld i put my aliases in .bashrc or .bash_aliases | 22:30 |
| docta_v | usse1: but if your new drive is larger | 22:30 |
| jrib | xsystemx: does 'apt-get update' work ok? | 22:30 |
| xsystemx | jrib - also notice was having an issue when trying to install OS via virtualbox | 22:30 |
| bladerunner | ArthurArchnix: actually let me check | 22:31 |
| docta_v | wouldn't that cause a problem? | 22:31 |
| xsystemx | jrib - nope, it just goes back to command prompt | 22:31 |
| frost0 | macrobad, if i just want to uninstall virtualbox, will it remove its virtual partition? | 22:31 |
| usse1 | docta_v: use partimage instead of dd | 22:31 |
| dougsko | docta_v: http://reactor-core.org/disk-migration.html | 22:31 |
| xobius | monte I had never done video DVD | 22:31 |
| jrib | xsystemx: even without sudo? | 22:31 |
| bladerunner | ArthurArchnix: whats it part of? | 22:31 |
| xsystemx | jrib> E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/apt/lists/lock - open (13 Permission denied) | 22:32 |
| xsystemx | E: Unable to lock the list directory | 22:32 |
| xsystemx | jrib - actually responses without using sudo | 22:32 |
| ixian_ | does anyone know if the laptop hard drive issues are resolved in ubuntu 8.04? the power management settings in the current ubuntu can apparently wear down laptop hard drives.. | 22:32 |
| jrib | xsystemx: ok. What does "groups" return? | 22:32 |
| ArthurArchnix | bladerunner: woa... never mind | 22:32 |

| ArthurArchnix | That tips from 2004. | 22:32 |

| jrib | xsystemx: groups | 22:32 |
| bladerunner | ArthurArchnix: ? i ahve installed the mp3 codecs from totem when asked | 22:32 |
| frost0 | macrobad, how do i uninstall a directory located here (/home/user/.VirtualBox) via terminal...i know there is a prefix or something. | 22:33 |
| ArthurArchnix | I'll just point you here and wish you luck bladerunner, seeing as how what works for me hasn't worked for you: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=652698&highlight=soundjuicer+mp3 | 22:33 |
| xsystemx | user and vboxusers | 22:33 |
| danand | frost0 - .VirtualBox is the location of settings and virtual boxes hard drive images on my system. which virtualbox will give the location of the executable | 22:33 |
| macrobad | frost0: This I cannot tell 100% correct, because I have never used it. It depends on where system images are stored. Normally, apt-get remove leaves all user settings, and apt-get purge deletes *everythin* | 22:33 |
| bladerunner | ArthurArchnix: ok no worries ;) thanks anayhow | 22:33 |

| docta_v | usse1: partimage looks pretty cool, i wonder if i can restore to a larger partition | 22:34 |
| bilakhanish | yes i do | 22:34 |
| t0rp | how do i get ubuntu to show me manpages for include files? stdio.h, stdlib.h I want these manpages | 22:34 |
| jrib | xsystemx: you need to be in the admin group to use sudo | 22:34 |
| macrobad | frost0: Actually, your home folder is your home folder, and you are free to change its contents as you wish, even delete all these settings. | 22:34 |

| usse1 | docta_v: yes you can but you may have to resize your original partition to accommodate all the free space after you reimage your hdd | 22:34 |
| jrib | xsystemx: what does 'lsb_release -c' return? | 22:34 |
| xsystemx | jrib - I used to be ? | 22:34 |
| xsystemx | gutsy | 22:35 |
| ArthurArchnix | Hey jrib... There can't be that many ubuntu users in iran. Just ban Iran. ;) | 22:35 |
| frost0 | macrobad, but what is the prefix to delete a specific folder in the terminal? | 22:35 |
| docta_v | usse1: that makes sense | 22:35 |
| macrobad | frost0: On the other hand, programs are normally installed computer-wide, and one needs root permissions to install or remove a program. | 22:35 |
| ArthurArchnix | Or cut some undersea cables. | 22:35 |
| macrobad | err | 22:35 |
| xsystemx | heh | 22:35 |

| orudie | can someone help me? how can i change a home directory for users in proftpd ? | 22:36 |
| xsystemx | jrib - gutsy | 22:36 |
| r3n0c | ok guys new question, how do i make a script that i can run from any directory? | 22:36 |
| jrib | xsystemx: then yes, you are supposed to be in the admin group | 22:36 |
| jrib | xsystemx: (and others) | 22:36 |
| xsystemx | jrib - others? | 22:36 |
| bladerunner | ArthurArchnix: just trying ubuntu-restricted-extras... wish me luck | 22:36 |
| t0rp | I want them on my machine, as man pages though | 22:36 |
| usse1 | sboss: go with x86 | 22:36 |
| xobius | Guiri, perhaps you have to do it from a livecd | 22:36 |
| macrobad | frost0: First of all, you may press Ctrl+H in your normal file browser, Nautilus, and delete it that way. But if you insist on shell, then one can delete all files with rm | 22:36 |
| jrib | xsystemx: first get yourself back into "admin". Reboot and choose "recovery mode". Then run "adduser YOUR_USER admin". Then reboot | 22:36 |
| jester7 | orudie: still dealing with that proftpd, huh? | 22:37 |
| sboss | usse1, thanks alot. That is what I was leaning towards but did not know if the 64bit would give me anything special. thanks again!! | 22:37 |
| dougsko | t0rp: as far as i know, the devs just didnt package them | 22:37 |
| orudie | jester7: hey, well actually got it working, but cant specify a home directory | 22:37 |
| xsystemx | jrib - ok, thx | 22:37 |
| jester7 | orudie: you just mean the default directory that it connects to when you first connect via ftp? | 22:37 |
| orudie | jester7: yup | 22:37 |
| usse1 | sboss: x64 doesn't give you enough gain on the desktop but brings plenty of headaches | 22:37 |
| bladerunner | ArthurArchnix: just found this... "Not a bug but you have to install the restricted-manager and restricted manager-core for the gstream plugin to be available in the list of choices in sound Juicer preference." | 22:37 |
| jester7 | orudie: it SHOULD be under 'files and directories' in webmin | 22:38 |
| orudie | jester7: right now if i connect it takes me streight to /home/orudie | 22:38 |
| sboss | thanks a lot all.. | 22:38 |
| macrobad | frost0: In order to delete virtualbox folder you'll need to enter 'rm -rf ~/.VirtualBox' but be ware you won't be given a chance to restore it, because it is deleted unrecoverably. | 22:38 |
| orudie | jester7: yeah, i specified it there but it didnt work | 22:38 |
| jester7 | orudie: you have to restart proftpd | 22:38 |
| ArthurArchnix | bladerunner: Hopefully that gets it working. But it's not technically accurate since I haven't installed restricted extras and it is an option in my drop down list. | 22:38 |
| orudie | jester7: how wouldi restart it ? | 22:39 |
| jester7 | orudie: it should be right on the main proftpd page on webmin...upper right hand corner, should say 'stop proftpd' | 22:39 |
| frost0 | macrobad: weird, i just did sudo rm -rf /home/me/.VirtualBox and my file manager says it worked..but, when i click the icon...it seems as though everything is still there? | 22:39 |
| Kopfgeldjaeger | n8 | 22:39 |
| bladerunner | ArthurArchnix: no but you have this sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly-multiverse | 22:39 |
| ArthurArchnix | I wish there was some way to replace the firmware on my first gen appple shuffle so I could listen to my ogg music collection. | 22:40 |
| bladerunner | ArthurArchnix: thats what it is down to | 22:40 |
| macrobad | orudie: 'sudo /etc/init.d/proftpd restart', perhaps? | 22:40 |
| stunatra | frost0, try refreshing the directory. | 22:40 |
| ozehka | my problem: in firefox, scrolling pages with much content is slow. in konqueror the same page works fine, so its not the graphic card | 22:40 |
| bladerunner | how do i stop an installation in the terminal safely??? | 22:40 |
| frost0 | stunatra, okay it seems to have deleted everything....when i open up the program, the virtual machine is gone...but, the program is still there waiting for a new one to be created....that is good enough :) | 22:40 |
| frost0 | stunatra, the core program must be installed elsewhere. | 22:41 |
| orudie | jester7: in the upper right corner under proftpd server in webmin there is only 'search docs' no stop server | 22:41 |
| stunatra | frost0, yes, you will have to remove it via package manager. | 22:41 |
| stunatra | frost0, or terminal. | 22:41 |
| ArthurArchnix | ozehka: Try turning off network-prefetch | 22:41 |
| bladerunner | when I say stop I mean cancel | 22:41 |
| ArthurArchnix | ozehka: and make sure that smooth scrolling is on. | 22:41 |
| macrobad | frost0: User settings, program settings, and program binaries are deliberatly separated in most of unix programs. | 22:42 |
| jester7 | orudie: oh, sorry, it's all the way at the bottom | 22:42 |
| jester7 | orudie: it's a button that says "stop server" | 22:42 |
| ozehka | ArthurArchnix: smooth-scrolling makes it even worse. or at least it doesn't help | 22:42 |
| orudie | jester7: I CANT SEE IT LOL | 22:43 |
| frost0 | macrobad, how do i make a new partition with gparted? I am running it as root and the button is still grayed out :( | 22:43 |
| ozehka | ArthurArchnix: network-prefetch in about:config? | 22:43 |
| ArthurArchnix | ozehka: Yeah. | 22:43 |
| macrobad | frost0: Ask someone else, I can only guess. Sry. =) | 22:44 |
| gregbrady | Mandrig is a Steely Eyed Missle Man and has my Compiz working wonders now!!!! Thanks! | 22:44 |
| ozehka | ArthurArchnix: "network.prefetch-next"? | 22:44 |
| jester7 | orudie: ok, if you click on the "default server" under "virtual servers" you'll see it in teh top right | 22:44 |
| pinstp | can i control my laptop which has windows xp from my desktop that has ubuntu ??? | 22:44 |

| iRRVi | how do i build a cross compiler for i386-unknown-gnu? it gives me errors when i "make" | 22:58 |

| ubuntu_ | Odd-rationale: whats the program on pup that burns isos? | 22:58 |
| iRRVi | DonkeyKong101: have you tried editing xorg.conf ? | 22:58 |
| ArthurArchnix | ozehka: Yeah. Pango might be needed then... I don't know. anyway, safe way to do it to : gksudo gedit /etc/environment and add MOZ_DISABLE_PANGO=1 then restart firefox. If you find that you need it, just go remove that line. | 22:58 |
| michaelkyle | macrobad, the higher res listed as 800x600 its on Display in the desktop configuration of Xfce, i know in xorg.conf its listed 1024x768 but i dont get it as an option on "Display" | 22:59 |
| Odd-rationale | ubuntu_: I forgot the name. But it is pretty good. Fast and small. It can even do multisession cd/dvd's | 22:59 |
| macrobad | michaelkyle: So in Screen section you already have all the resolutions that you might want. Now just follow to the gnome control center and choose the correct one. | 22:59 |
| macnus | Hi im running linux in parallels desktop on my macbook, and i want to sync my mac os 10.4, with my linux ubuntu. Is that possible? | 22:59 |
| DonkeyKong101 | iRRVI: dont know how 2?...im keen though | 22:59 |
| ArthurArchnix | ozehka: But does that help you at all? Disabling it I mean? | 22:59 |
| macrobad | michaelkyle: Ah, you are using XFce.. | 22:59 |
| danand | DonkeyKong101 - you can try reconfiguring the x server - dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg - that may be easier option | 23:00 |
| dougsko | iRRVi: check out scratchbox | 23:00 |
| michaelkyle | macrobad yes | 23:00 |
| ubuntu_ | Odd-rationale: and how do i get it to load in RAM? | 23:00 |
| ubuntu_ | or right off another partition | 23:00 |
| joseph | can anyone help me fix this error? E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem. | 23:00 |
| Odd-rationale | ubuntu_: Just boot it normally. | 23:00 |
| jrib | joseph: have you run the command it asks you to run? | 23:00 |
| ozehka | ArthurArchnix: didn't help | 23:00 |
| Paul_UK | hey all, does anyone know of opensource software that runs locally or can check remote linux servers, windows xp machines for root-kits or spyware? | 23:00 |
| ArthurArchnix | joseph: Just do what it says. But add sudo. | 23:01 |
| macrobad | michaelkyle: Honestly, I don't know then. Basically, it looks like you should configure Xfce, and not xorg.conf anymore. | 23:01 |
| joseph | okay 1 sec ill try it | 23:01 |
| * ArthurArchnix is fresh out of ideas... sorry ozehka | 23:01 | |

| macnus | sure its not the speakers, jokeras? | 23:03 |
| michaelkyle | macrobad, im not even going to listen to you anymore, god 10mins wasted here... I KNOW THATS what i should do, BUT I DONT GET IT AS AN OPTION ON XFCE... theres no 1024x768 listed on res options, do i have to explain it to you on a blackboard? | 23:03 |
| ubuntu_ | Odd-rationale: the thing is... part of my hard drive is dead... the one where i had debian installed... and now i want to install ubuntu 8.10 | 23:03 |

| michaelkyle | but i dont get it listed on "display" in the Xfce panel | 23:04 |
| danand | DonkeyKong101 - possibly not safe...but i believe when running that command the options etc you already use will be auto highlighted - ie you can just say yes to all and your settings will stay the same... you just need to change your resolution only... hope that makes sense | 23:04 |

| macnus | I need help to sync between mac os 10.4 and Ubuntu. Anyone who can help? | 23:05 |
| ubuntu_ | Odd-rationale: but i need to have puppy booted up to do that | 23:05 |
| geirha | michaelkyle: don't paste it here, but does it contain 1024x768? | 23:05 |
| danand | DonkeyKong101 - if you want to run that command it is - sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 23:05 |
| dougsko | iRRVi: if youre running it on the same box youre developing it, you dont need to cross compile anything because itll all be x86 or all sparc | 23:05 |
| Paul_UK | michaelkyle: what does your monitor type say? | 23:05 |
| michaelkyle | let me check geirha | 23:05 |
| danand | DonkeyKong101 - as will all things its safe if your careful :) | 23:06 |
| Odd-rationale | ubuntu_: Describe what you want to do again and what was your problem ? I kind of got lost... | 23:06 |
| iRRVi | dougsko: but wont you need it to compile to raw instructions not linux-based | 23:06 |
| Paul_UK | michaelkyle: mine is 1024x768 generic display, hence 1024x768 under setting is there | 23:06 |
| ArthurArchnix | Nephyrin: http://www.ubuntu.com/legal | 23:06 |
| iRRVi | dougsko: i think you might be mis understanding me: i want to write an operating system from scratch...not like a progbram that runs in linux | 23:07 |
| iRRVi | dougsko: or a linux kernel etc | 23:07 |
| ubuntu_ | Odd-rationale: i'm running edgy right now off a live cd; i have a 8.10 iso on a partition; i want to get the iso on a cd so i can install it; i can't get it on a cd because i have the edgy live disk in | 23:08 |
| dougsko | iRRVi: all an OS is is a program that manages hardware and memory. all you need to do that is C and gcc to compile it | 23:08 |
| macrobad | michaelkyle: I took my time and found your original phrase: "hi, i cant change my desktop resolution to 1024x768 cause its not listed :(, im at 800x600 atm and its pretty annoying, this is how my xorg.conf is (http://pastebin.com/d29a19e4b), what i have to edit there?" You haven't mentioned of Xfce there, and most people use Ubuntu with Gnome... so, specify you problems correctly if you don't want to "waste time". | 23:08 |
| Paul_UK | hey all, does anyone know of opensource software that runs locally or can check remote linux servers, windows xp machines for root-kits or spyware? | 23:08 |
| michaelkyle | geirha, xrandr dont display 1024x768 | 23:08 |
| Paul_UK | michaelkyle: what does your monitor type say? | 23:08 |
| iRRVi | dougsko: and then i can run it in likie qemu with no other operating system there to run it on....riiiiiiiiiiiiiiight | 23:08 |
| michaelkyle | Paul_UK, my monitor do support the res | 23:08 |
| michaelkyle | :) | 23:08 |
| Odd-rationale | ubuntu_: Sounds like one of those brainteasers questions. :) Let me think.... | 23:08 |
| Paul_UK | michaelkyle: but what does your monitor type say? | 23:08 |
| Paul_UK | under the display settings? | 23:09 |
| geirha | michaelkyle: then HorizSync and VertRefresh in xorg.conf is probably wrong | 23:09 |
| Paul_UK | michaelkyle: if your monitor setting is generic 800x600 then you wont be able to get 1024x768 lol | 23:09 |
| michaelkyle | Paul_UK, how so? is there a command i should typew to know what says? | 23:09 |

| Waffles385 | Yeah | 23:33 |
| GwaiLo | What does the 0 at the start represent? the file isn't reading properly and I think it should. It is an NTFS volume | 23:33 |

| Waffles385 | alright | 23:35 |
| Waffles385 | lemme try it | 23:35 |
| Nith | as for fixing the underlying problem though... sorry, I've never dealt with my graphics drivers in under 6 hours | 23:35 |

| geirha | sarixe: did you cd into /media/cdrom and then ran wine setup (or something like that?) | 23:40 |
| sarixe | i ran the installer.exe from nautilus | 23:40 |
| Waffles385 | I think my problem was that I hadn't rebooted... I restarted X but never shut down and started up | 23:40 |
| Jack_Sparrow | sarixe, You may want to ask that in #winehq | 23:41 |

| icesword | hello | 23:54 |
| geek_ | Hi, is there any way to list all the dependencies required by a package? Any help from configure file in source? | 23:54 |

| AntiUSA | but I need a game pad! | 23:55 |
| AntiUSA | I'm trying to figure out if any of the Saitek game pads work in Ubuntu | 23:55 |
| spowers | amenado: perhaps there's a compiz plugin to flip the screen | 23:55 |
| spowers | amenado: also, xrandr can do roatation regardless of compiz usage, now that i think of it | 23:56 |
| amenado | spowers good idea, I will look around for that | 23:56 |
| Seeker` | geek_: apt-cache show <package name> | 23:56 |
| purepwnage | AntiUSA: Saitek has been terrible to me, but other people have no problems with Saitek. Just a warning in case, you know... | 23:56 |

| prince_jammys | AntiUSA: at the bottom of the page http://onlyubuntu.blogspot.com/2007/03/how-to-set-up-gameportgamepad-or.html | 23:57 |
| spowers | amenado: actually no, it's an x server feature. sorry i mentioned compiz in the first place, it's unrelated to xrandr | 23:57 |
| AntiUSA | purepwnage: what game pad shold I get? All I care about is that it works with Ubuntu | 23:57 |
| amenado | spowers anyhow thanks for the idea | 23:58 |
