Lars_G | neosix: newer? | 00:06 |
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 |

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 |
audrius | Jack_Sparrow, geforce 8600 gts | 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 |

Dr_willis_ | Mezriss, your users need to be in the fuse group, then they can mount/unmount the iso image files. | 00:27 |
soundray | rhineheart_m: if you need a root shell for something, you can always do 'sudo -i' | 00:27 |
rhineheart_m | Thanks for your inputs guys... how about to a server without GUI? | 00:27 |

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 |

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 |

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 |
musashi_ | I need some help solving a software RAID 1 setup problem. The explanation is too long to post here. I posted it at https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/26489 my thanks to anyone willing to read it and help me. | 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 |
soundray | fluo: /dev/audio is a legacy device provided by alsa's oss compatibility modules | 00:57 |

EpicLegion | rrplay: How? | 00:58 |
Scunizi | boxafella, I don't but there really isn't much else I can enlighten you with... sorry. | 00:58 |
icesword | Maimster, i am not sure, coz i have only one machine,just try it | 00:58 |
boxafella | It's quite alright. | 00:58 |

m0u5e | how do you break symbolic links? | 00:59 |
m0u5e | besides deleting the folder / link | 00:59 |
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 |

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 |

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 |

rhineheart_m | hello guys... I have this problem.. is there a chance to recover the superuser account if I forgot it? it's a server without GUI | 01:06 |
gigamonkey | At least it seems I can. The real test will be if the internal drive fails for some reason. | 01:06 |

Scunizi | joesoundguy, in terminal "cd /media/cdrom0 (or 1)" <enter> then "ls" | 01:09 |
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 |
icesword | Maimster, what? | 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 |
Maimster | icesword Time to find another NIC around here to try it out. | 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 |
asker | danand_: thank you. is deborphan a command? | 01:17 |
Eleaf | I want to track my activities, like "writing on blog" or "doing work" amenado | 01:17 |
desertc | !mythtv | 01:17 |
ubotu | MythTV is a TV framework for Linux - Instructions for using with Ubuntu at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MythTV | 01:17 |
Maimster | <--- Needs more RUM. | 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 |
blood1 | if my laptop froze and i had to hard-reset, would there be a log to tell me what went wrong. has happened a few times. | 01:18 |
xTheGoat121x | My top panel freezes every time I start my computer. | 01:18 |
Eleaf | amenado, I found the program, it's called gtimelog! | 01:18 |
Eleaf | heh. | 01:18 |
Fuze_ | where do i find out what version of ubuntu im running?? | 01:18 |
Maimster | icesword The only restricted driver that Ubuntu sees are the nVidia drivers and they are cool. | 01:19 |
Flannel | rhineheart_m: recovery console isn't a GUI. It's a GRUB option. It works, trust me. Boots to run level 1 | 01:19 |
amenado | Eleaf-> i know you can.. :P | 01:19 |
Flannel | Fuze_: lsb_release -a | 01:19 |
joesoundguy | Scunizi Perhaps itś an fstab or kernel issue? | 01:19 |
Fuze_ | k :) | 01:19 |
Eleaf | amenado, indeed, I found it | 01:19 |
Eleaf | I just typed in commands, still couldn't find the program in search ;) | 01:19 |

Phoenix27 | I'm trying to install Ubuntu using a livecd. I've had it before, but I switched over to Vista to try it.

bloody` | pheonix: when you boot to the cd, run the option to test the cd for errors | 01:37 |
Phoenix27 | And I ran the problems checker on the first disc and it came up with 173 errors, the DVD won't run anything. It shows the menu but doesnt run any of the applications. | 01:38 |

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 |

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 |

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 |

astro76 | !rootshell | Mike | 02:23 |
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 |
Starnestommy | Mike: it does. It runs the command after "sudo" as root | 02:23 |

Mike | Okay.. | 02:36 |
Devourer | Or... aptitude install* | 02:36 |
__mikem | gamegame, its under administration, not Preferences | 02:36 |
nickrud | Devourer: for nearly all purposes yes, the ubuntu uber-geeks strongly recommend using apt-get | 02:36 |
bazhang | Devourer: similar in many respects yes | 02:36 |

bloody` | dev: or chown thwe folder | 02:42 |
Mike | Thanks everyone, but /I'm out for a bit now | 02:43 |

bazhang | LuiCal: this worked in feisty but not now? | 02:44 |
LuiCal | exactly | 02:44 |
LuiCal | bazhang:exactly | 02:44 |
luckyone | nickrud: I tried to ssh to the box | 02:44 |
luckyone | nickrud: so I could reconfigure xserver | 02:45 |
nickrud | luckyone: boot into recovery mode and run dpkg-reconfigure -pcritical xserver-xorg to get a default setup (first though, what new video card?) | 02:45 |
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 |
khyron320 | What is a good backup package that would let me backup a 100gb folder to DVD but i can still go into just a single DVD to recover a file | 02:45 |

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 |
joesoundguy | bloody /mnt/cdrom | 03:18 |
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 |
geo_ | i did it ... may i have to do sth else? | 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 |
nickrud | Scunizi: yes | 03:19 |
jonathan_ | scunizi, what will that do? | 03:19 |
flacom | restart the x | 03:20 |

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 |

Ezra | jonathan: i mean, do you have root priveleges? | 03:22 |

gamegame | i know someone wants to help me out here.... dell inspiron 1100, my bcm440x nic card is not working. | 03:23 |
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 |

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 |
ubotu | a1fa there are ways without a cdrom: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install?

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 |

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 |
orudie | zorin: can i do that through webmin ? | 03:29 |

Downsay | Jack_Sparrow, my current drive is very small, I don't know how large, friend set it up, and I've got 300gb of free space on my hdd still remaining (that is being saved for windows use, but I want to split some of that to linux) | 03:30 |
neosix | shenchien> how do you mean to format | 03:30 |

bazhang | chemical let it time out and try again--do not quit | 03:31 |
Karsyth | anyone know how to handle .run files? | 03:31 |
credible | l815: depends on the type of shortcut | 03:31 |

dft | shenchien; just boot from an install disk and reinstall | 03:31 |
asterick | .run? Never even heard of it. | 03:31 |
credible | l815: shortcuts to applications are made by creating .desktop files | 03:31 |

l815 | susscorfa, i think that's what i'm looking for | 03:32 |

shenchien | alright,i know wht should i do | 03:32 |
geo_ | i did it | 03:32 |
shenchien | k thx | 03:32 |
namegame | unless you specify otherwise | 03:32 |

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 |

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 |

donspaulding | hey all, I'm using mint linux inside virtualbox-ose and I need to replicate the desktop across 20 machines for a class I'm teaching. Anyone have any experience doing this? Should I use remastersys? LTSP? VNC? | 04:23 |
bod_ | jrib, what does k-lined mean? | 04:23 |
LimCore | now, if kmail fails to have QA why not remove or downgrade it | 04:23 |
donspaulding | the classroom machines only have VMWare 6.0 on them | 04:23 |
ka2 | donspaulding: not ubuntu | 04:23 |
ka2 | donspaulding: put virtualbox on them | 04:24 |

dthacker | LimCore: I'm putting ubuntu on an old Dell PII The window for the time zone selector is so big I can't see the "next" button. The resize option is greyed out. Is there a fix or am I doomed to the alt install cd? | 04:25 |
bod_ | donspaulding, schools are irritating like that,. im surprised they have *nix on them at all | 04:25 |
cabrioleur | eatatjoes2, it cannot access the configuration file. Check if your partition is o.k. If it is, use the same procedure as to recover mbr after windows installation. | 04:25 |
dthacker | LimCore: sorry that was for the whole channel. | 04:25 |
LimCore | dthacker: press the Alt key and then drag the window up | 04:25 |
donspaulding | bod_: they don't, they're running windows, but they'll let me boot up a nix vm | 04:25 |
dsmith_ | LimCore: whats your problem with ubuntu? | 04:25 |
bloody` | limcore: tab to the button and press it with spacebar :) | 04:25 |
cabrioleur | eatatjoes2, and check if the config file contains proper writeups. | 04:26 |
LimCore | dsmith_: kmail is a steaming pile of bugs that just destroyed my emails | 04:26 |
Saggles | Digression: Anyone ever managed to install Ubuntu through DVI monitors? I'm having issues in that nothing shows up after the ubuntu bootup splash screen :\ | 04:26 |
nalioth | LimCore: please rething your outlook. a tool is a tool. | 04:26 |
nickrud | LimCore: if you can confirm it wasn't the isp, file a bug on it | 04:26 |
dthacker | bloody`: I cant see the button.... | 04:26 |
dsmith_ | LimCore: do you have backups? | 04:26 |
LimCore | nickrud: I did | 04:26 |
eatatjoes2 | cabrioleur: how can i check the parition is okay, i know how to do fixmbr to get back into windows but i wanna get this working | 04:26 |
bloody` | limcore: use thunderbird | 04:26 |
Saggles | Can't switch to VGA monitors either, because my graphics card.. annoyingly enough doesn't even have any. u.u | 04:26 |
LimCore | dsmith_: dunno, I will try do download it again from pop server, this time with email client that is not epic failure | 04:26 |
bloody` | dthacker: tab past the last item you can see and it should be the button | 04:26 |
bod_ | donspaulding, ah, why does microsoft controll our schools,.,. is there a campaign to get *nix on them? there should be | 04:26 |
nickrud | LimCore: ok. I don't use kmail cuz it did it to me once, was never sure myself | 04:26 |
dsmith_ | LimCore: kmail is useless | 04:26 |

bloody` | gnome is where its at | 04:27 |
cabrioleur | eatatjoes2, the instruction as to when windows installation overwrites mbr. It will tell you how to reinstall grub. Using live cd you can check the partitions and files on them. | 04:27 |

blahdeblah-lap | Repeating an earlier question in case some new folks are listening: What is the closest equivalent to Ghost on Ubuntu? I'd like to back up my laptop onto an external USB drive without requiring a network server like Clonezilla does. Encrypted LVM support on both the source and destination drives would be good. | 04:27 |

LimCore | dthacker: pop or imap | 04:29 |
dthacker | LimCore: pop | 04:29 |
LimCore | nalioth: exacly, therefore the broken one (kmail) should have a warning | 04:29 |
Extravert | hello | 04:29 |
bod_ | donspaulding, yer, i bet they dont understand they dont have to pay for some other alternatives that 1. work better 2. crash less 3. dont have a stupid window logo 4. have decent support 5. have an app for almost anything you can think of 6. new release every 6 months 7. dedicated vlountry support team 8. a nice interface 9. more secure 10.

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 |

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 |

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 |

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 |

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 |

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 |

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 |

ubotu | AntiUSA: The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines | 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 |

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 |

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 |

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 |
jescis | ubotu c++ libraries | 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 |
darkcrab | it should be able to be done | 05:10 |
RoAkSoAx | !help | 05:10 |

keithclark | darkcrab, I've googled to death....nothing works | 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 |
Downsay | prince_jammys, I guess I'll go ahead and reboot and see if it comes up? | 05:38 |
Kalandros | Motorsport3: I think I've got it. | 05:38 |
bod_ | nickrud, positive. he asks me too fix something that he doesnt know whats broken, how can we do that,.,. then the error report states its "temporarily" unavailable and still wants a fix | 05:38 |
prince_jammys | Downsay: try it and come back if it didn't | 05:38 |
Lartza_ | i need some ubuntu geek | 05:38 |
Downsay | prince_jammys, be back soon:P | 05:38 |
Motorsport3 | Kalandros: what'd you do, because mine was doing the same thing | 05:39 |
bod_ | !gq | Lartza_ read what your pasteing "unavailable" | 05:39 |
ubotu | Lartza_ read what your pasteing "unavailable": Are you sure your question allows us to help you? Please read http://www.sabi.co.uk/Notes/linuxHelpAsk.html to understand how to ask a 'better' question. | 05:39 |
nickrud | bod_: lol, I was talking about you not adding the nick, and sending it to 'im' . But my humor misses the mark often anyway | 05:39 |
Ezra | downsay :that's not right | 05:40 |
bod_ | nickrud, lol, oops,.,. yer, perhaps i was just so irritated i forgot,.,.;~) | 05:40 |
Kalandros | Motorsport3: Well, I have to figure out how to get to it, but I downloaded a new version of IE for Linux. | 05:40 |
sutabi | Anyone know How to mark an item in an terminal GUI? | 05:41 |

LimCore | anyone uses evolution? | 05:42 |
Lartza_ | teewars, amsn and weather applet stopped working, gives errors when runt with strace | 05:42 |

Downsay | prince_jammys, I don't even have nautilus, I only have something called cd/dvd creator | 05:43 |
Lartza_ | amsn isnt the apt-get version | 05:43 |
prince_jammys | Downsay: that's ok | 05:43 |
Kalandros | Motorsport3: Finally, I got to installing it. xDD | 05:43 |
LimCore | so, anyone uses evlopution and can help me confirm a bug? | 05:43 |
prince_jammys | Downsay: use that | 05:43 |
=== cwe_1225 is now known as cEw_im0eTz |
Lartza_ | and the problem occurs to user when trying to connect to server(in game or msn) | 05:43 |
prince_jammys | Downsay: and drag the iso file in there | 05:44 |
Motorsport3 | Kalandros: w/o IE4Linux? | 05:44 |
Downsay | prince_jammys, I'm burning again, we'll see if it works this time, this time I chose to burn to dvd rather than to image file | 05:44 |
Odd-rationale | Downsay: You are trying to burn iso file in ubuntu? Try putting an empty disc in drive. select ignore in the pop up message. right-clikc the .iso and select burn to disc | 05:44 |
Kalandros | Motorsport3: No, from what I am seeing, you will need that. | 05:44 |
Motorsport3 | Kalandros: ah ok | 05:44 |
chequers | hi all, ubuntu 7.10 isn't recognising my PCIE video card and is falling back to onboard output. lspci doesn't show the video card in there. What can I do? | 05:44 |

Downsay | prince_jammys, alright, it burnt I believe, I'll reboot and try again | 05:44 |

Flannel | punzada: that was for you (up four) | 05:46 |
punzada | ah | 05:46 |
punzada | thank you :) | 05:46 |
punzada | was wondering why it wasn't working :P | 05:46 |
LimCore | prince_jammys: yes | 05:46 |

Kalandros | SAWEET! | 05:47 |
LimCore | prince_jammys: so, do oyu have evolution un ubuntu 7.10 amd 64 to help confirm a bug? | 05:47 |

seb963 | Hey there guys, know if any good autotag plugin to order my mp3?? | 05:47 |
prince_jammys | LimCore: what is it? | 05:48 |
Kalandros | Motorsport3: http://www.tatanka.com.br/ies4linux/page/Installation | 05:48 |
LimCore | prince_jammys: it only appears in amd64 version afair | 05:48 |
Odd-rationale | seb963: EasyTag is good | 05:48 |
LimCore | because some developers lacked skills to use proper, stable, kmail version (according to #kde) | 05:48 |
seb963 | Easytag... I'll search for it, thanks a lot Odd-rationale | 05:48 |
matrix | hello ? | 05:48 |
jumbers | How can I check, via the terminal, what file system I have? | 05:48 |
LimCore | jumbers: mount | 05:48 |
macogw | jumbers: mount | 05:48 |

matrix | how's evrey body | 05:49 |
seb963 | Motorsport3: thats why I keep a windows partition I dont think im brave enough to do wine | 05:49 |
LimCore | prince_jammys: hmm you can then try it on 32 bit anyway | 05:49 |
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 |
Lartza_ | I dont' want to reinstall ubuntu , but I can't figure any other solution | 05:50 |
LimCore | prince_jammys: then it should crash. does it? | 05:50 |
Motorsport3 | seb963, I'm running photoshop cs2 and all my flash drive apps from portableapps.com right now, its awesome | 05:50 |
LimCore | and if it does (by this or other method) then some of emails should be damaged (missing email body - they are mepty) | 05:50 |

macogw | Lartza_: broke it that bad? | 05:52 |

macogw | you can even use a GH controller | 05:52 |

bod_ | Marduk-Destroyer, im not sure,. why dont u ask him | 05:52 |
raju | i am creating live cd based on ubuntu , it is not booting properly what may be the error | 05:52 |

Lartza_ | Motorsport: yes, if my system hasnt cahnged it itself | 05:54 |

Marduk-Destroyer | it takes a different amount of time, sometimes 10 minutes, sometimes 10 hours, but I consistently lose my USB connections | 05:54 |
Lartza_ | Motorsport: and the slowness is not the biggest problem | 05:54 |
Marduk-Destroyer | mouse, and wireless (internal usb) | 05:54 |

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 |

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 |

Motorsport3 | Downsay: did you right click your ubuntu partition, and choose resize? | 06:09 |
Downsay | Motorsport3, it said successful...and when I resized, I clicked on the sda2 (linux) and I clicked resize/move...from there I added 50gb to the Right of the current HDD | 06:09 |

josh1857 | 2 questions... what does supported until 2009 mean and what is the most stable server release? | 06:18 |
Motorsport3 | josh1857: supported until 2009 means supported until 2009, and 6.06.1 | 06:19 |
credible | josh1857: dapper is currently the best choice for a server, and it's supported for 5 years on the server (but almost 2 have expired by now) | 06:19 |
icesword | josh1857, haha,you mean stable,the sole kernel is stable,then you compile new software makes it most stable | 06:19 |
Flannel | josh1857: dapper is. Supported until 2011 (June of 2011) | 06:19 |
benny_ | anyone here use opera? it play any better with flash? | 06:20 |
josh1857 | supported means? | 06:20 |
icesword | update | 06:20 |
credible | josh1857: security updates | 06:20 |
josh1857 | it is retired after that? | 06:20 |
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 |

ubotu | To install Skype on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype - To record on Skype, check: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SkypeRecordingHowto | 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 |

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 |

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 |

Lowke1 | can someone help me with installing enemy territory? i keep getting this error: Seems like Return to Castle Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory was installed by another user. You have to install True Combat: Elite as the same user who did install Return to Castle Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory. | 06:39 |
Lowke1 | my usr/local/games is empty.. and i tried installing both Et and tc:e | 06:39 |
Flannel | cens0red: It recommends that because it's a simplest way to do it. But adding it to an existing install is really simple as well | 06:39 |
Sonja | how do i get the best drivers for my video card? ATI Sapphire | 06:39 |
macogw | Neeku: ok....well the ext3's are both linux ones so whichever you wanna make bigger, go ahead | 06:39 |
Sonja | !sapphire | 06:39 |
ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about sapphire - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 06:39 |
cens0red | Flannel will follow the howto. Bout time I learned php. | 06:40 |
bullgard4 | prince_jammys: hank | 06:40 |
Neeku | macogw: you mean i should make both of them bigger? | 06:40 |
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 |
raju | prince_jammys, no , i want to work out my live cd which is based on ubuntu | 06:42 |
Neeku | macogw: i'm an amateur linux user; but i want to have enough space when i'm using it. i had ubuntu installed on this hard; but now my system is 64bits and i'm going to install the 64bit ubuntu on the same partition, and i don't want to format them... | 06:42 |
macogw | bullgard4: it doesnt say image viewer when i read the info on it | 06:42 |
Odd-rationale | Neeku: It will tell the device (/dev/sdax), Where it is mounted (/) and what size it is. | 06:42 |
bullgard4 | macogw: Ah! Thank you for commenting. | 06:42 |
macogw | Neeku: you have to format the partition where / goes | 06:42 |

Neeku | macogw: then can i resize it while installing? (getting some space from fat partition) | 06:43 |
macogw | Prez00: shouldnt be, just make sure you set "noatime" on your /etc/fstab so it doesnt write the disk too much. SSD's have limited writes | 06:44 |

Neeku | macogw: i'm confused; i don't know if i should move all 'my documents' from my fat partition to here and migrate totally or just leave them there, and ... :-/ | 07:05 |
macogw | Neeku: you can read from FAT just fine | 07:05 |
macogw | and write | 07:05 |
devron6 | whos2know: what is the problem | 07:05 |
macogw | doesnt matter much | 07:05 |

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 |

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 |

ParanoyaM | Seveas ok then is there any asp linux channel? | 07:16 |

Seveas | no idea | 07:16 |

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 |
