Polishpaula00:01
xobiusartenius, yes I use it in Gnome00:01

iceswordmc-george, middle button doesn't work?00:01
geirhaangusb: err, s/amarok/aptitude/00:01

polishpaulhey guys, i need help recovering my nick.. how can i get a hold of a nickserv admin?00:05

MegaqwertyJordan_U: haha. Fair enough.00:09
geirhaangusb: when you have run mysql -uroot and ran those two queries, then in amarok's settings, you leave host and port to their default values, and database, username and password are all 'amarok'00:09
mindheavysfears: you know of a way to list what might be keeping this drive busy? all i did was copy a few files to it from a terminal, then closed that terminal and tried unmounting it from the desktop icon00:09

sfearsand i'd imagine there is someway to force the unmount.. but i'm not sure what that is either00:10

Nilbusfrank23, I know.  I had one that was working though - a toshiba.  Do you know of others with working suspend?00:18
frank23Nilbus: no I don't know.00:18
sfearsmindheavy, try fuser -v /directory/mounted00:18
Jack_Sparrowfrank23, I think suspend depends mostly on the video card/drivers00:18

Jack_Sparrowoboy03, aptoncd has an overall size limit from what I rmemeber00:19
arteniusxobius: thanks, it works perfectly00:19

mindheavysfears: ah! right after i copied those files, emerald went down, and from that same terminal, i ran 'emerald &'   'fuser' reported emerald when i ran it, maybe if i kill that PID (and possibly emerald again) it'll let me umount00:20

sfearstry it out00:20
sfearsi think that command tells you what process is using the specified directory00:20
angusbnot sure what I should fix00:20
Jack_Sparrowoboy03, no, aptpn cd does more, it creates the list of packages etc as if a full repo..00:20

Jack_Sparrowkust3mz, I dont know where you are at with that..  all I can suggest is you rad the docs where you got the drivers you want to use00:21
Nilbuswow, system76 is for sure a whole lot cheaper00:22
oboy03on the same cd that is00:22
Nilbus(than a macbook)00:22
hegurumindheavy: you can use lsof to find out which files are open by which process00:22
mindheavyi'll have to remember that command, seems like it would come in handy00:22
Jack_Sparrowoboy03, Yes, then manually copy them to that same folder as needed.. see clone or automate below00:22
PeloNilbus, but but macs are chick magnets ....00:22
Jack_Sparrow!clone | oboy0300:22
ubotuoboy03: To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type « dpkg --get-selections > ~/my-packages », move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type « sudo dpkg --set-selections < my-packages && sudo apt-get dselect-upgrade » - See also !automate00:22

ubotuSindacious: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo00:43

Dr_Willisripper666,   I mean what you NEED a torrent client to do.. not what files you want to grab.   What you want to download. dosent really matter. :)00:55
andguentsp0ro: the answer is then dependant on your router, but you should have the option to forward00:55
sp0roanguent: I am doing a side-project in my CCNA class and I would like to have ssh access to the servers I set up to configure them. The problem is on remote access to the public address, only port 3389 is allowed.00:55

sp0roandguent: I won't be allowed to change anything on the router for security purposes, I will only be allowed to forward SSH to port 338900:55
andguentEdinNY: the real answer is to test it yourself with junk files, make two directories in temp, use 'touch' to make empty files, and then rsync them around between one tmp subdirectory and another00:55

acee1235i just installed a fresh comp of ubuntu but apt-get update isnt working it only shows about 1k packages shouldnt there be about 23k?01:13
GamingXok. I had Windows XP, Ubuntu 7 and Fedora 8. I wanted to a complete format of the harddisk so I started off by deleting both the Ubuntu and Fedora partitions from the DiskManagement facility in XP. Now when I boot up I get "Error 22" and am not able to log into Windows.01:13

andguentscall: the installer will expect the files to be in the same place if you ever have to remove it later... a link makes the fewest changes possible and still have it work01:14

GattonGamingX, any chance you still have your XP cd?01:15
SindaciousMegaqwerty: http://pastebin.com/m80391b001:16
kust3mzMegaqwerty: are these themes free?01:16
Megaqwertyacee1235: apt-get update caches the package lists, so on the second time it's run (sometime soon after the first update) it doesn't download as much.01:16
Megaqwertykust3mz: free as in money?01:16

Xcercai just installed ubuntu , and used the resticted drivers manager to install the nvidia driver,  how to i get to the nvidia driver settings?  my res now is 800x600 ...01:16
GamingXRight now I am using the Ubuntu live cd.01:16
MegaqwertySindacious: taking a look01:16
MegaqwertySindacious: my mistake01:17
GattonGamingX, I had to do this recently. You can boot to the XP cd and run a Repair. That will get you into the recovery console. You can try running FIXBOOT C:  or  FIXMBR to rewrite your master boot record01:17
Gattonthat should let you get back into windows. Worked for me01:17
MegaqwertySindacious: first, do sudo aptitude purge ndiswrapper-common ndiswrapper-modules-1.9 ndiswrapper-utils-1.901:17
GamingXGatton: What exactly does it do?01:17
acee1235Megaqwerty: that heped a bit and for some reason every repository was disabled01:17
grizlo42-.-01:18
Megaqwertyacee1235: probably not every one.01:18
DARKGuyGatton, GamingX: BIG CAREFUL WITH THAT ONE... seriously I lost my partition because I was careless, that was reporting my windows drive was E: (when it's always C:)... just make sure it's C instead of E :/01:18
GattonGamingX, it rewrites your MBR which is where grub is located. you can google fixmbr and fixboot. that should get you more info01:18
Megaqwertyacee1235: but everything but the main one I would understand.01:18
Xcercai just had done the apt-get nvidia-settings , but i didn't see anywhere to open the config ,  is there a command to enable the nvidia settings ?01:18
TaRDyMegaqwerty, eth1 is up, however the device isn't always connected to it01:18
grizlo42im annoyed, i can´t get my port forwarding to work, anyone know what to do for thw WGR614v6 netgear router?01:18
Megaqwertyacee1235: the restricted, multiverse, universe, etc. are optional, and you must enable them yourself.01:18
GattonDARKGuy, good point. Recovery console should show where your windows installation is for example C:\WINDOWS before it allows you to get into the recovery console01:18
acee1235Megaqwerty: even the main one was disabled01:19
DARKGuyGatton, yeah it does, I was careless :p01:19
GamingXAnd I get into recovery console?01:19
Megaqwertyacee1235: quite odd indeed01:19
Megaqwertyacee1235: well, at least you can fix it :)01:19
GattonGamingX, boot your XP cd and choose the R or Repair option. That will get you into recovery console...01:19
Gattonit will ask you for your admin password01:19
SindaciousMegaqwerty: http://pastebin.com/mc67582501:19
acee1235Megaqwerty: hope thats the extent of the quirks on this install01:19
Xcercawhats the difference between nvidia-glx-new and nvidia-settings ?  ,  whenever i install one it removed the other one01:19
GamingXOk. Thanks.01:19
Megaqwertyacee1235: I would certainly hope so as well01:19
GamingXI'll try this out.01:20
Gattonthen it puts you into a prompt. from there you can try running fixboot c: or fixmbr. again it's not a bad idea to google those to get more info before you try it01:20

GattonDARKGuy, agreed. I really hope it gets better. They are only at 0.4 though I guess :-)01:22
MegaqwertySindacious: hmm, it doesn't look like you even installed it. (At least from the ubuntu repository) but just to check, please pastebin the output of dpkg -l | grep -i ndiswrapper (note that the character after the '-' is an L and the thing after it is a pipe (above the enter key on most keyboards))01:22

andguentgrizlo42: are you connecting from inside your own network, and trying to access your external IP? or are you trying this from another location?01:24

andguentgrizlo42: when trying to go from inside your own network, to the outside facing connection of your router, that gets really weird, its unfortunately a poor test -- what you need is to test connecting to your external IP from somewhere else, grc.com has a shieldsUp scanner that will tell you what you have open01:27

kholerabbidamaltor: well heres the story: I put in the 7.10 livecd, it says it connecting at the icon in the tray, then it is connected, but still not working in firefox or anything else -02:06
Alan_Mit should be something like /dev/sdb1 or something similar.02:06
mneptokDevourer: use "df -h" when it's mounted to learn its /dev entry02:06
Alan_Mbut, df -h will tell you for certain what it is.02:07

ubotuLAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)02:14

polishpaulingo__: are you trying via package manager in the GUI or via terminal (apt-get)?02:19

andguentsp0ro: iptables -A INPUT -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 3389 -j ACCEPT02:26
sp0romneptok: No, but when I added port 3389 to the list of SSH ports to use on a server, it won't allow me to connect even when the router is configured to allow it. So I figured it was something set in IPTables no allowing permission to connect from an outside host to the server via SSH through port 338902:26

sYn_0n3lsusb or lspci where is your wireless card02:28
andguentmneptok: I would respectfully dissagree, sshd can handle multiple port directives in its sshd_config02:28
polishpaulingo__: which modules? Try checking your proxy settings, also, 'cat /etc/hosts' and check for anything funny (see https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/6719)02:28
SindacioussYn_0n3: Me ?02:28

MegaqwertySindacious: ah, well sorry I can't help further at this point as I must depart. I'd recommend trying to get kismet as well, "the king of wireless scanners" sudo apt-get install kismet. It's launched by sudo kismet -i wlan0. Good luck!02:31

polishpaulyou would then just use 'passwd' to change root's pass.. one moment plz03:08
TonyWongOh, it logs in by itself....03:08
Jack_Sparrow!root03:08
ubotuDo not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo03:08

TonyWongokay, thanks for your suggestion.03:20
khylewhere bro03:20

thiebaudeim testing 8.04, jack03:21
orudiejrib: you said screen -r03:21
sfearsjust an idea.. if you changed the compiz setting from ctrl+arrow to a setting that was already used in compiz it may have then replaced that one with ctrl+arrow.. make sure there's no settings in compiz using that jals03:21

iobeliskhi guys, i have a pretty serious problem, i think. i was in the middle of a update (testy hardy alpha) and the update process showed an error because of missing dependencies. i had to manually restart the computer and now in normal boot mode the system sort of stalls (for loooooong) on 'staring system logs daemon', when i try recovery mode, it drops to bash, asks me for my username, i enter it, hit enter, and nothing, it fails. i restart a03:27

chuy_maxbruenig, that's a very interesting question, I was very curious if there was a way to know03:34

usserGatton: that's login shell03:34
Gattonbruenig, i get the same shell as before03:35
usserhehe03:35
bruenigthat is not a login shell, that is the dash shell03:35
bruenigGatton: but the shell you are actually using is dash, not bash03:35
bruenighence, that method is fail03:35
Y-Towntonyyarusso: I think that might be the solution  :o)03:35
Gattonbruenig, you learn something everyday :-) thanks03:35
* usser well yea I mean you should know what shell you are running03:35
usserperiod03:35
Y-TownStarnestommy: I dont have control of when I loose it  :O(03:36
usserbut still03:36
Gattonbruenig, so is dash supposed to be a compatible replacement for bash?03:36
bruenigbasically here is how I see it, if you haven't explicitly called another shell, you are using the login shell, which you can find out using echo $SHELL. If you have explicitly called another shell, then you know because you called it after all.03:36
bruenigGatton: they aren't compatible completely03:37

scottI'm tired of compiz crashing on me, I want to switch back to pekwm03:38

xtknighterr ctrl+O03:50
xtknightwriteOut03:50
bruenigdepends on what you are doing with it, try programming in nano, not fun03:51
crdlbS82: it will be in the repos for hardy (the next release of ubuntu), but for gutsy you'll have to use some sort of 3rd party repository03:51

ubotuninja: Attempting to downgrade to an older Ubuntu version is explicitly not supported, and may break your system.04:10
ninjaseriously thats my only hope huh?04:10
karuna_bd1ninja: kill and reinstall04:10
ninjai dont want to downgrade to an older ubuntu, i just want the updates off04:10
jribninja: then ask in #ubuntu+1.  This is support for stable versions only04:11
ninjathe updates killed my sound, so i figure that would fix it04:11
amenadoninja umm dont run updates ?04:11
ninjaum no shit but i already did04:11
cwillu_ninja, come to #ubuntu+1, nobody here cares04:11

cwillu_ninja, nobody caring means nobody is going to help you here;  come to #ubuntu+1, stop the swearing, and I'll help you out04:12
Karsythjrib: i have to set permissions in my ET folder for each and every folder, and sometimes the permissions i change dont save. then i have to do it all over agin04:12
orudiedoes anyone here have or had any experience with srcds ? i have a rather simple question04:13
Karsythjrib: unless its extremely important, i would just rather not have permissions and have myself as the "root" or admin04:13
ninjai dont have clue one on how to switch channels04:13
cwillu_then say that :p04:13
cwillu_what program, xchat?04:13
cwillu_ /join #ubuntu+1 will usually do it04:13

Damonfuck ubuntu04:13
ninjais there maybe a forum for noobs like me, i hit everything google spat out and ive got about 200 bucks worth of books that dont help at all04:14
Karsythjrib: in order for ET to save my cfg files i need the permissions to write and read04:14
Karsythjrib: that way it will save my profiles instead of having to make a new one each and every time i load04:14
Flannelninja: Why are you running Hardy?04:14
jribKarsyth: so explain what you are doing exactly.  What permissions are you setting?04:14
cwillu_ninja, hardy isn't ready for general use yet;  pretty much every place you would have downloaded it should have had warnings to that effect.  Things break on any given day, wireless, sound, x, etc04:15
ninjait DID work with my hardware, but not now, lost windows cant afford to buy windows again so i thought this linux thing would be cool, but its so broken04:15
Karsythjrib: i have to set permissions for my User (Karsyth) to write and read files, that way when i launch ET and make a profile i can SAVE it too. otherwise it doesnt save the profile04:15
Karsythjrib: i have to set the permissions for my ET folder and subfolders to be exact04:15
ninjaand ubuntu 7.** wouldnt even install04:15
jribKarsyth: type the exact commands you use04:15
Flannelninja: Right, but why not use the stable version? Ubuntu 7.10.  Hardy isn't fit for human consumption yet04:15
Karsythjrib: im just right clicking the folder04:16
cwillu_ninja, gutsy was the version to try.  Hardy breaks things that _were_ _working_, as thingsare developped04:16
Flannelninja: What wouldn't work with the install of 7.10?04:16
cwillu_ninja, however, join #ubuntu+1, or reinstall from 7.1004:16

tritiumPurpZeY: that depends on if you want the open-source or proprietary drivers.05:06
IcemanV9usurpergoat: mine is only 184M    /var05:06
tritiumbullgard4: sure05:06
smattstill same thing05:06
PurpZeYtritium: Whichever works....05:06
tritiumPurpZeY: try nv first, then.05:06
smattso can i burn this same iso to my flash drive instead, to rule out it's my cdrom?05:06
quakky_olskolirc: i cant see any point in spending over 3 hours trying to solve my sound issue..i could have reinstalled and updated ubuntu 3 times ...05:07
tritiumPurpZeY: i.e, they should both work, but if you don't specifically need nvidia, stick with nv05:07
crdlbPurpZeY: you need nvidia if you want 3d acceleration though05:07
pajamianolskolirc: the thing about PDF is it's designed to not be modifiable, it's a sort of "electronic paper" format...05:07
olskolircquakky_ why don't you try the update button on the update manager.  that usually fixes things05:08
pajamianolskolirc: so you will be hard pressed to find any program that can edit them.  flpsed does about as good of a job as I've seen, and it can only add text, it can't remove anything.05:08
hennocan anyone help me out?? q6600, SMP kernel, but only one core showing up05:08
ninjaolskolirc thats what screwed quakky and i up is the updateing thing05:08
IcemanV9usurpergoat: something was filling up by either playing the app or updating went wrong. keep looking in /var especially /var/tmp and /var/cache. depends on what du -sh tells ya05:08
CVD-PRHey there, its there  a way to know the last time i log-on?05:08
olskolircor even go into software sources and find out what broke05:08
smatti see the article on lifehacker, but it specifies ubuntu-live.05:09
usurpergoatIcemanV9: something in /var/backup   its at 31G also05:09
PurpZeYcrdlb: I have a larger issue though. X failed to start, I believe b/c I specified the card in the wrong location...It's in PCI Express...What would that location be called xserver-xorg ?05:09
blindhey, can an op PM me, my friend is banned and doesn't know why05:09
olskolircohhh ok ninja05:09
smatti figure the same could be done with the desktop?05:09
quakky_olskolirc: im pretty sure i have the most updated version of linux,...and like Ninja said I had sound yesterday..updated today (cuz i was having graphics issues) and i couldnt hear anything05:09
jribblind: join #ubuntu-ops05:09
blindk, thanks05:09
olskolircthen apt-get deselect-upgrade05:09
CVD-PR?05:09
ninjayeah, and i think this holds true for quakky also, but it dosent even recognise that there is a sound card05:09
olskolircthere was no better release then fiesty fawn if you ask me05:10
IcemanV9usurpergoat: okay. you're getting there. did u use backup app? or script?05:10
ninjasorry quakky, dont mean to speak for ya, but we are having the exact same issue, i knew i wasnt alone lol05:10
pajamianolskolirc: and if you print from linux then you use ps files.05:10
olskolircohhh ok pajamian05:10
quakky_well apt-get deselect-upgrade doesnt work either05:10
bazhangninja yours was an update to hardy; different from quakky_'s issue05:10
olskolircoh wow05:10
stevendemorezcould anyone tell me how to access and manipulate my webcam so I don't get a chan error?05:11
quakky_i think im gonna go boot up windows xp...*sigh*05:11
condorxp....05:12
olskolirchow is hardy?05:12
persib-4--]05:12
usurpergoatIcemanV905:12
usurpergoatIcemanV9: apparently so.. lol there are backup files from 1 year ago..05:12
condorquakky_,  you are using sudo right?05:12
quakky_ya05:12
PurpZeYCan someone help me reconfigure x properly to start with my new video card. I am getting "Failed to initialize device" and Screens found, but none have usuable configuration05:13
quakky_im putting sudo apt-get deselect-upgrade ..thats how u do it right?05:13
dannycan anyone help me learn how to install programs05:13
PurpZeYdanny: You can install programs 3 different ways.05:13
PurpZeYdanny: 4 really.05:13
bazhangjiggy: could you hit ctrol alt f1 when you get the black screen and try this: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg05:13
Daisuke_Ido!repositories > danny read the message from ubotu05:14
IcemanV9usurpergoat: ok. you need to decide to remove it or not. or move it to another place such as external drive (if you have one).05:14
bazhangdanny: sudo apt-get install packagename after you have the repos enabled and refreshed/reloaded05:14
hennoanyone have a q6600 and can help a dude out?05:14
Daisuke_Idoi'm thinking synaptic would be a better way for someone that knows NOTHING about installing05:15
quakky_<condor> the only reason i probably going back to xp (for the 2nd time) is because xp doesnt require u to spend 2 days trying to get ur graphics card and sound card to work .... it's all about the drivers..05:15
condorive never had probs with grfx or sound cards05:15
usurpergoatIcemanV9: nah, i just want to delete them  im in the directory now as root...   whats the command to delete?05:15
quakky_well i probably do cuz the hardware i got is pretty new05:15
ninjawhat kind of equipment you using condor, or do you have a phd in programming05:16
quakky_lol05:16
condorive been hacking for 25 yrs...05:16
petercoh8hi, can someone help me with compiz ?  I have an onboard Intel graphics controller and I'm wondering if it will work at all05:16
ninjaah ok05:17
condorits not rocket science05:17
PurpZeYpetercoh8: It can work depending on the card and how much ram you have...it's sort of slow.05:17
thiefnesspetercoh8: i have an intel mobile graphics card and it works with compiz05:17
ninjano its more complex than that05:17
bazhanghttps://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/Netboot condor this might help; if not I have one other link for you05:17

PurpZeYCan anyone help me get x started with dpkg-reconfigure...I just installed a new gfx card and I can't get any GUI at all...I think I gave dpkg the right settings so I don't know why it's failing05:18
jrib!dvd > SisyphusINC (read the private message from ubotu)05:18
IcemanV9usurpergoat: to play safe .. rm -i *.<filename extension>  (it'll ask you before remove)05:18
bazhangpetercoh8: the experts in #compiz-fusion can sort that in no time ;]05:18
condorok cool the first one i read not the second thanks bazhang05:18
petercoh8hey thanks05:18
ninjawhats this private message from ubotu?05:18
PurpZeYIt's secret.05:19
bazhangcondor sorry to keep you waiting05:19
quakky_it's when u do things like !sound05:19
condorno its cool05:19
ninja!sound05:19
ubotuIf you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP305:19
usurpergoatIcemanV9: rm: cannot remove directory `2007-03-12_00.00.02.236818.supergoat-laptop.inc': Is a directory05:20
SisyphusINCwhy is the a diagonal break across my video playback?05:20
bazhangah ninja? the sound issue for hardy #ubuntu+1 is a bit different, okay? there are actual people in there right now troubleshooting it if you really want to get that fixed05:20
tritiumninja: wrong channel for Hardy.  You've been told before!05:20
IcemanV9usurpergoat: that's okay ... i will tell you how to remove that dir after you finished empty out /var/backup05:21
ninjawhat tritium? im not talking/typing05:21
bazhangheh05:21
PurpZeYThis is the last time I will repeat, so I am sorry...But, is there anyone who can please help me with a dpkg-reconfigure in order to get my new gfx card working...I am stuck in CLI and I don't know how to fix it.05:21
bazhangPurpZeY: you stuck with out X?05:22
tritiumPurpZeY: state the question05:22
olskolircPurpZeY dpkg-reconfigure <your X display05:23
PurpZeYtritium: I just installed a new graphics card. X will not start. I tried walking through reconfigure to no avail and I don't really know exactly what settings in reconfigure I need to make it work again05:23
bullgard4Is 'kill -9 15904' the proper syntax to stop Tracker from indexing?05:23

olskolircoops05:23
PurpZeYtritium: I tried both nv and nvidia05:23
nix_chix0rI think people should check this link out. http://video.stumbleupon.com/#p=pbrcxtwqob if that doesn't simplify linux nothing will. imo05:23
tritiumPurpZeY: then what?05:23
IcemanV9usurpergoat: ok. you got it. :P05:23
olskolircmy irc just went ballistic on me05:23
olskolircok PurpZeY I have it05:24
usurpergoatIcemanV9:now i just have to turn off that backup..   thanks a million, i had no idea on how to figure out where all my disk space was going.05:24
PurpZeYtritium: Then I followed the the reconfigure and I got "Failed to initialize..." "Screens found but no configuration." I can tell you what other erros you need to know but I can't paste it b/c I have no way of doing so.05:24
IcemanV9usurpergoat: got lots of space back now?05:24
tritiumPurpZeY: understood05:24
olskolircPurpZeY do: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and then reapply your nvidia driver in restricted drivers05:24
bazhangPurpZeY: try dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg05:24
usurpergoatIcemanV9: but i knew i wasn't crazy when my HD kept getting fuller and fuller...05:24
bazhangoops05:24
PurpZeYolskolirc: I am in feisty...05:25
olskolircit should still work PurpZeY but I don't know about reapplying the restriced nvidia driver part.  I don't remember05:25
usurpergoatIcemanV9: 239M in /var now05:26
IcemanV9usurpergoat: i have seen it quite often at work; sometimes i get paged when the disk is 100% full05:26
PurpZeYolskolirc: That should not be an issue for me b/c I am in fiesty. I don't have restricted drivers manager...I know the issue you speak of.05:26
IcemanV9usurpergoat: now that looks right.05:26
usurpergoatIcemanV9:  thanks again, time for bed.  cya05:27
olskolircI loved fiesty but I'm spoiled on Gutsy now.  ever think about upgrading PurpZeY ?05:27
quakky_alright guys im outta here..thanks for the help.. but 1 last question..should i post on the forums to try to get a solution?05:27
IcemanV9usurpergoat: terrific. have a good night.05:27
bazhangPurpZeY: indeed would be worth an upgrade05:27
PurpZeYolskolirc: I'd consider it, but I like my setup and I don't like risking things. That being said atm my priority is to get *something* working05:27
bazhangquakky_: for alsa?05:27
olskolircyes quakky_ post05:28
quakky_bazhang: ya05:28
quakky_olskolirc: ok05:28
bazhangquakky_: some really brilliant folks in #alsa05:28
PurpZeYbazhang: Like I said, it would be something I'd consider....if feisty was working...atm I have CLI...05:28
olskolircoh im sorry PurpZeY i forgot, what was broke again?05:28
bazhangPurpZeY: get the alternate cd that will do the trick; www.ubuntu.com05:29
quakky_bazhang: oh good idea..ill join that channel see if they can do something05:29
PurpZeYolskolirc: I just put a new gfx card into my machine...now I got no x. They are both nvidia cards this one is just much better.05:29
PurpZeYbazhang: While I appreciate the advice I would hope that the fix for the problem isn't, upgrade, that will fix it for sure.05:29
bazhangquakky_: a bit quiet at times, but they will get it sorted when they are awake ;]05:29
Karsythi cant figure out how to search a folder for all files it contains. can anyone help?05:30
olskolircoh yes, PurpZeY : dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg you'll be fine05:30
PurpZeYolskolirc: I did that05:30
PurpZeYolskolirc: Perhaps I am missing a step in that process....which is sort of what I've been asking05:30
olskolircewwww bad05:30
prince_jammysPurpZeY: what card is it?05:30
bazhangfinally05:30
olskolircI don't know PurpZeY05:30
olskolircdownload nvidia (new)05:31
PurpZeYprince_jammys: GEForce 8800 GT05:31

PurpZeYprince_jammys: That change the situation at all?05:32
olskolircI have an issue nobody can solve.  I have a projector for my monitor on an 80 inch hdtv wall hang.  I want it to spread out more.  Do I adjust the params in dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg?  I'm scared05:32
olskolircto make it wider to fit05:33
prince_jammysPurpZeY: no idea, i'm looking in google :)05:33
bmac2I have untunt and kubuntu installed on several machines, but I am having issues with my dell server05:33
quakky_bazhang: lol seems #alsa is kinda dead05:33
bmac2I can install every distro / OS on it except for ubuntu/kubuntu get a squashfs error05:33
bmac2part of the way through the install05:33
PurpZeYprince_jammys: Good idea. If I don't get a fix soon, I'll kick it around tomorrow I guess....But maybe you'll turn up something...Shoulda do it myself.05:33
bmac2anyone seen this before?05:34
bazhangquakky_: hehe well I warned you; but when they are awake they can fix most things in short order05:34
prince_jammysPurpZeY: you don't have envy installed right?05:34
PurpZeYprince_jammys: No.05:34
prince_jammysPurpZeY: ok good.05:34
bmac2I tried the aic7xxx.aic7xxx=no_probe switch05:34
bazhangphew05:34
quakky_bazhang: alright..well it wont hurt to post the problem on the ubuntu forums, and thats what im planning on doing. thanks05:34
bazhangquakky_: okay; sorry I stink at fixing sound problems05:35
ashwinihi05:36
olskolircwouldn't envy be a good thing prince_jammys ?05:36

grizlo42hello05:37
PurpZeYprince_jammys: YES!05:37
grizlo42i am having an apache crisis05:37
grizlo42i deleted a folder in var/www/05:37
grizlo42and then added a new folder05:37
prince_jammysPurpZeY: you know how to browse the web from CLI?05:37
PurpZeYNo.05:37
grizlo42and when i go to local host, the new folder doesn´t appear05:38
quakky_btw guys when is the next big upgrade happening to ubuntu? i heard it was like less than a month05:38
prince_jammysPurpZeY: use www-browser or install "elinks" for nicer display05:38
prince_jammysPurpZeY: check this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=66501805:38
chuy_maxPriceChild, w3m?05:38
grizlo42and the folder i reset contents of came up with an error, saying index.php can´t be found05:38
grizlo42and i know it is in there05:38
PurpZeYOut of curiosity....Just to complicate the issue...I did more than update my gfx card. I actually rebuilt my machine completely and supplanted the harddrives....Might I be better off just installing over my current install?05:38
grizlo42anyone know what to do?05:38
grizlo42i reset cache05:38
grizlo42everything05:38
chuy_maxprince_jammys, w3m?05:38
prince_jammyschuy_max: that too05:39
bazhangPurpZeY: that can be fixed as well most likely; just need to setup grub again05:39
TonyWongIs the wifi setup via CLI under Ubuntu and gOS same?05:39
prince_jammysPurpZeY: check out that thread.  you can do :  www-browser http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=66501805:39
bazhangTonyWong: the ifconfig iwconfig sudo dhclient eth0 etc like that?05:40
PurpZeYprince_jammys, bazhang: grub is working fine. But it is literally a brand new computer....Maybe a fresh install would be better05:40
bazhanghttp://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=571188 TonyWong this is the ubuntu cli way ;]05:40
grizlo42pls anyone?05:41
TonyWongthx05:41
grizlo42i really need this by tomorrow05:41
bazhangPurpZeY: never reinstall when you can spend hours in here ;]05:41
chuy_maxgrizlo42, create an index.html in /var/www05:42
prince_jammysPurpZeY: if you want ... but you should be able to fix this problem without reinstalling. if looking online from CLI is annoying, boot from live CD05:42
bullgard4Is 'kill -9 15904' the proper syntax to stop Tracker from indexing?05:42
bazhanggrizlo42: have you tried #apache ?05:42
chuy_maxand type localhost grizlo42 in firefox05:42
PurpZeYbazhang: No, I'm serious....I am asking a real question....I built literally scrapped my entire machine except for my hard-drives....Now also Ubuntu isn't recognizing my network card....Is a new install a better way to go?05:42
chuy_maxgrizlo42, does it work?05:43
PurpZeYprince_jammys: Ubuntu is not recognizing my network card either.05:43
bazhangPurpZeY: I am serious too (except for the length of time); that should be fixable; one problem at a time though05:43
olskolircoh hell PurpZeY at that point scrap it all lol05:43
grizlo42yeah05:44
grizlo42the index.html thing works05:44
olskolircI was fooling around with kde4 the other day and messed my system up really bad05:44
Meshezabeel1olskolirc, thanks, I ran dpkg-reconfigure, and removed the nvidia proprietary drivers. Video playback now works fine, however, when I re-enable the nvidia drivers, I just get a black screen on videos again.05:44
chuy_maxgrizlo42, ok, rename it for index.php, what happens?05:44
olskolircI had to uninstall kde and reinstall kde and kubuntu to get it back05:44
grizlo42let me try05:44
olskolircthank god my files systems were still there and all my hard work05:44
PurpZeYDifferent question: If I install without formatting, will Ubuntu still have my files present?05:45
stevendemorezis there a v4l2 wrapper or something to make your device compatible to v4l programs05:45
bazhangPurpZeY: if it is a rather fresh install then just reinstalling would be a good choice, but if you have tons of data you want to save then you might want to try fixing it; just something to consider05:45
PurpZeYbazhang: I was under the impression that if I reinstalled without reformatting I wouldn't lose data.05:45
grizlo42it still works05:45
bazhangPurpZeY: seperate /home partition?05:45
grizlo42if rename it05:45
PurpZeYbazhang: That the only way....Otherwise if I install over I'm out of it?05:46
chuy_maxgrizlo42, ok, so problem solved, isn't it?05:46
TrustNoOnehow can i change the permission of /usr/share/azureus so that i can write to it, so that azureus can do updates without running as root?05:46
Meshezabeel1any more ideas olskolirc?05:47
bazhangPurpZeY: if you explicitly created a seperate home partition then a reinstall will leave your data alone; if not then no05:47
chuy_maxTrustNoOne, use chmod05:47
PurpZeYbazhang: I did not.05:47
olskolircsound issue right Meshezabeel1 ?05:47
grizlo42let me check05:47
grizlo42i don´t think so05:47
grizlo42cause if i delete index.html05:47
grizlo42then it shows the folders05:47
olskolircor video Meshezabeel105:47
TrustNoOnechuy_max, yeah i got that far but i dont know the entire command to use05:47
grizlo42and it doesn´t show all of the ones it should05:47
Meshezabeel1olskolirc, video, yes05:47
chuy_maxTrustNoOne, are you aware of permissions?, rwx?05:48
olskolirchmmm05:48
olskolirccan you pull the card?05:48
olskolircand reinstall it05:48
TrustNoOnechuy_max, would it be "sudo chmod +w /usr/share/azureus"05:48
grizlo42nope05:48
j_Is there a command to revmove an synaptic package manager files?05:48
grizlo42problem still there05:48
olskolircoops, Meshezabeel1 pull the card and reinstall it05:48
chuy_maxTrustNoOne, give full permissions with sudo chmod 777 /usrblabla05:49
PurpZeYbazhang: I have one crucial partition that is NTFS that I would NEED to save. Otherwise, I'd be OK.05:49
Meshezabeel1olskolirc, it is my playback of avi, mpeg, dv, wmv videos that don't work when nvidia proprietary drivers are enabled, it used to work fine but suddenly stopped working last week05:49
bazhangj_: something you installed with synpatic you wish to remove with the cli? is that the thrust of your question?05:49
olskolircohhh ok Meshezabeel105:49
TrustNoOnechuy_max, i dont want full permission, just write so it can do updates, so would i use that command i previously mentioned?05:49
grizlo42what is the terminal command to remove all php, mysql, and apache stuff from my comp05:49
grizlo42so i can re install05:49
prince_jammysPurpZeY: you said you just updated everything ... do you have another hard drive lying around?05:49
chuy_maxTrustNoOne, yes, you can also do that05:49
j_bazhang yep05:49
olskolirclet me think a second Meshezabeel105:49
PurpZeYprince_jammys: No. But I imagine I could buy one.05:50
bazhangj_: sudo apt-get remove packagename05:50
grizlo42anyone?05:50
j_bazhang for example i accidently install this game call abuse05:50
grizlo42yeah05:50
j_bazhang thanks05:50
olskolircMeshezabeel1: cat > /dev/video005:50
grizlo42but do you know which packages i need to remove?05:50
PurpZeYprince_jammys: Everything except my harddrives...The idea was to save my hard-drives and just supplant them over to the new machine.05:50
olskolircsmack it around a bit lol05:50
bazhangolskolirc: not very helpful05:50
prince_jammysPurpZeY: you could also try to copy your files to the ntfs partition and then copy back after reinstall ...05:50
olskolircsee if he gets scribble bazhang05:51
chuy_maxgrizlo42, what is the problem, I thought you couldn't open php scripts05:51
prince_jammysPurpZeY: or burn to cd, if they fit05:51
olskolircI'd kill to get my mythtv going05:51
TrustNoOnechuy_max, and so changing permission to write for /usr/share/azureus will only affect azureus folder, not the folders containing it right? so usr and share will not be +w?05:51
olskolircim using a pvr card and im running it through vlc05:51
bazhangolskolirc: mythbuntu?05:51
olskolircsay what bazhang ? /me mouth hanging open05:52
Meshezabeel1olskolirc, I think I just wiped out my /dev/video0 with the > in the line you gave me05:52
chuy_maxTrustNoOne, yes, if you want to include files and dirs under that directory, you want to add -R05:52
PurpZeYprince_jammys: I am not so terribly concerned about the files on my ubuntu drive....It's my other drive I want to try to save really.05:52
bazhangolskolirc: they have a channel for mythbuntu you know05:52
prince_jammysPurpZeY: the NTFS? that won't be affected05:52
chuy_maxTrustNoOne, chmod -R +w /blabla05:52
olskolircmy issue bazhang is that my config is full screen and my close doesn't close.  I have to restart X to get back05:53
olskolircwhat happened Meshezabeel1 ?05:53
PurpZeYprince_jammys: So, maybe I get a new install...if of course I can get my computer to recognize my SATA disc drive. If it did that, then I'd be reinstalling already.05:53
TrustNoOnechuy_max, ok that will only affect the folders azureus and the folders within it right? not the folders usr or share?05:53
prince_jammysTrustNoOne: right, the permissions will affect only the file you say (unless you do -R for recursive when changing permissions for a directory).  but the parent dirs will never be affected05:53
chuy_maxTrustNoOne, right05:53

Meshezabeel1olskolirc, cat > /dev/video0 just hangs, when I try it without the > it says 'no such device', but when I ls, I see a /dev/video0 there05:53

prince_jammysTrustNoOne: still seems weird that you would need to do that with azureus, though05:54
bazhangolskolirc: the channel is #ubuntu-mythtv if you are interested05:54
olskolircoh its fine then Meshezabeel1 did you see scribble?05:54
kavikhow do i burn image to cd?05:54
olskolircthanks bazhang I'll write that down05:54
TrustNoOneprince_jammys, because it is the newest version which was a zip file that i just extracted to that location, it had no install script, it just has a run script05:55
bazhangkavik: right click open with cd/dvd creator05:55
Meshezabeel1olskolirc, scribble?05:55
olskolircerrr, its been a long time since I did that Meshezabeel1 did you hear static?05:55
chuy_maxkavik, you can easily do it with k3b/gnomebaker05:55
prince_jammysTrustNoOne: have you tried running it with sudo instead of changing permissions?05:55
kaviki'm on vista right now05:56
TrustNoOneprince_jammys, i do not want to run any program with sudo unless i have to05:56
prince_jammyskavik: go to places->cd burner and drag the image file into the window. then select "burn as image"05:56
bazhangisorecorder2 then should work kavik05:56
kavikI don't have anything to burn the image with05:56
PurpZeYTrustNoOne: I think the suggestion is you might have to in this scenario.05:56
chuy_maxkavik, download nero05:56
Meshezabeel1olskolirc, hear static from what? From the command you gave me? I didn't hear any static. When playing video I see a black screen, but can hear the audio fine.05:56

j_Does PIDGEN music messaging plugin works? ? ? Its not working for me for some reasons06:00
PurpZeYbazhang: Realistically it seems like the Ubuntu fix is to reinstall, and I am OK with that...I don't think anything else is going to work...I see my boot screens...Ubuntu is looking for all sorts of hardware and failing to find it. That'd be the best fix.06:00

kavikbazhang which bit do i want?06:00
kavikbazhang, 32 or 64?06:01
bazhangPurpZeY: that is more the windows way; really this can be worked on but not all of them at one go06:01
kavikbazhang, or should i get the command line cd burner?06:01
PurpZeYMeshezabeel1: I am currently running in safemode to recognize my new hardware...06:01
PurpZeYbazhang: I mean this in a non-degrading way. But so far, none of them can be worked on.06:01
grizlo42no, it shows the directory above that06:01

l815SuperQ, do you know where the gnome themes are installed then? so i can copy them over06:40
SuperQl815: not sure, you should have the original downloaded files06:40
SuperQl815: open those up and the files should have instructions06:41
l815SuperQ, okay thanks06:41
SuperQl815: If you stick to Metacity themes that don't contain "gtk 2.x" code, you won't have to worry about them as much06:41

l815SuperQ, aren't metacity themes just window borders?06:42

tgcondorKilleroid, vikku_ : -z to tar only for .tar.gz, otherwise just -xvf if it's just .tar06:50
Killeroidtgcondor: noted and thnx06:51
pajamianvikku_: yes, you need to change to the directory that was just created by the tar process.  So you mean you are trying to build binutils from source because you want an older version, do I understand correctly?06:51
bullgard4willfrand: Please use the program 'Synaptic' to install the two packages 'roxen4' and 'roxen4doc'.06:52
willfrandaja, and next?06:52
tgcondorvikku_: like pajamian said, 'cd binutils-older-versio'06:52
vikku_yes u r right pajamian06:52
willfrandthen, cancel this installation, and after install roxen4, and then, install at new?06:53
vikku_ok lemme try tha06:53
pajamianvikku_: ok, just out of curiosity, why do you want an older version?06:53
vikku_tryiing to do a LFS06:53
bullgard4willfrand: You said that you want to install the program 'roxen4'. Then you will have it installed. That is all.06:53

bullgard4willfrand: Much fuerte!06:54
bullgard4willfrand: Mucha fuerte!06:54
pajamianvikku_: that's a bit much to take on when you don't know how to build a program from source yet.06:54

vikku_yes thats y my questn was  to help me on buildg software06:54

bullgard4willfrand: Un poco.06:54
vikku_:)06:55
vikku_Dream big you c06:55
pajamianvikku_: ok, well before you attempt to build binutils you need to have all the libraries and development packages installed that are needed to build it.  building stuff from source requires extra dependancies that you don't need when you just install it from a package.06:55

bullgard4stefano_: I am running Epiphany. May be with webkit. How can I check that?07:16
stefano_bullgard4, there should be a note about that in the "about" dialog, it should either say "using webkit" or gecko07:17
tgcondorphuzion: why put grub on CD?07:17
Alan_Mbecause hard drives crash tgcondor07:17
bullgard4stefano_: It says: "Using Gecko 1.8."07:18
phuziontgcondor, because the person who wanted an alternative cannot resize his windows partition, and wants to run ubuntu from an external drive, but can't boot directly from USB07:18
phuzionby the way, I figured out the problem with my system going into negative mode07:18
stefano_bullgard4, thought so, i was looking for a way to get it up and running, but i guess i have to wait a month. thanks07:18
stefano_so, is anyone here using rsync to any extend?07:18
tgcondorphuzion: ic, the alternative CD allows you too boot from HDD07:18
Alan_MWhy?07:19
tgcondorphuzion: I think with a mod you can make it boot from external07:19
phuziontgcondor, the person's BIOS does not support direct boot from USB.07:19
phuzionI was suggesting a different way to do so07:19
vikku_the error i get installing binutils are : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59450/07:19
tgcondorphuzion: right, so the person would be booting from CD which then passes control to USB07:20

ubotuSorry, I don't know anything about efi - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi07:22
tgcondorphuzion: i'm guessing the process would be as follows (automated through a script): boot into a minimal live CD that can access USB, then use linux loader to load the kernel from the USB etc07:22
Alan_Mheh, figures07:22
phuzionAlan_M, I know what EFI is, I was making a joke07:22
stefano_Alan_M, there is a better way to do it, and from my understanding it is pretty well documented. (efi) the big difference is that efi knows about devices and partitions whereas bios doesnt have a clue, all it's doing is running whatever is in the MBR07:22

* Alan_M erases the ot I had planned.07:38
jaek_eeestefano_, the program i'm using requires a device file something like /dev/input/event007:38

* stefano_ opens channel #private142 for arguing about technology07:39
Alan_MGood idea :)07:39
stefano_jaek_eee, what kind of device do you want to use to control empcd?07:40
jaek_eeeit is a usb control module from the early 2000s, it has a play/pause/stop/volume/next/prev buttons07:40
Alan_Mbrb, gonna go check out the ubuntu beginner team forum and see what I can help with..bodhi_zazen keeps griping because im on the team and im not really helping cut down the unanswered posts.07:41
jaek_eeestefano_, but google doesnt yield much help... the model number is pmd-c00107:41
stefano_jaek_eee, i think the program expects the device to be found and ready to use, if you just make a file this file won't point to any device. try and see if you can find out if your control thingy was recognised and what the device file for it is, if you know that, either tinker with the program configuration or create a simlink to the device, but if your device hasnt been recognised, it is much more complicated07:42

up_the_ironsI have gutsy on my thinkpad t61, i just installed the latest kernel.  Used same .config as in /boot (that came with the system).  Now that i'm running the latest kernel, I no longer have sound support (only PC speaker).  Any tips?07:57
stefano_up_the_irons, just boot the old kernel until it gets fixed, you don't need the new kernel of anything particular do you?07:57
up_the_ironsstefano_: i recompiled so i can get keyspan usb-to-serial support (which is not included w/ ubuntu).  I guess I could try a recompile with the older kernel07:58
up_the_ironsstefano_: better qemu/kvm support would be nice though, thought it might work better with newer kernel07:59
stefano_up_the_irons, oh i see, than it seems that you didnt include all the required modules for your sound chip.07:59
Alan_Mwell boys n girls..fellow ubuntu enthusiasts and new users..im out! Remember, the forums are your friend if you don't get an answer here, check the forums ;)07:59
stefano_bye Alan_M08:00
up_the_ironsstefano_: doesn't the config file included in /boot have the same config as the kernel that was running? (my older one)08:00
up_the_ironsstefano_: this new kernel has LOTS of modules compiled it, almost everything enabled (took forever to compile)08:00
stefano_up_the_irons, you have to include those modules when you're compiling the kernel, /boot doesnt have anything to do with that.08:00
up_the_ironsstefano_: i mean, not compiled into the kernel, but the modules are compiled08:00
stefano_up_the_irons, did you do all the configuration before compiling the kernel by hand?08:01
up_the_ironsstefano_: well, the /boot/config-`uname -r` does include a file that i can use as .config in  my kernel source tree08:01
pppZerohow can i stop apt-get from install unwanted dependencies?08:01
up_the_ironsstefano_: the only thing i did by hand was enable Keyspan support, every else was left as it was in .config08:02
CVD-PR?08:02
up_the_ironsstefano_: all the other kernel modules seem to work08:03
bluej774Does anyone know of a program that can dump frames from video?  I can't find any that work.  I've already tried "dumpmpeg".08:03
stefano_up_the_irons, did you check your blacklists?08:03
stefano_bluej774, do you mean dump as in extract or as in remove?08:03
bluej774stefano_: I mean extract.08:04
bluej774Extract to a png or jpeg or bitmap format.08:04
=== co_cr_teman is now known as uswa
up_the_ironsstefano_: blacklists?08:04
stefano_bluej774, i think there is a program very similar to virtualdub for linux. but obviosly this wouldnt be so great if you want to exctract a lot and maybe script it08:04
bluej774stefano_: I just want to extract maybe 10 to 20 contiguous frames.08:05
stefano_up_the_irons, there is a blacklist for kernel modules that won't be loaded, i think it's /etc/blacklist or something like that, maybe your sound modules are listed there08:05
stefano_bluej774, allthough very gui-focused, maybe pitivi will do the job08:06
up_the_ironsstefano_: but if that was the case, wouldn't sound not work on the old kernel also?08:06
bluej774stefano_: I'll give it a try.08:07
pppZerobluej774, transcode will do it, see http://mightylegends.zapto.org/dvd/dvdauthor_howto_animenu.html for syntax to get yourself started :)08:07
stefano_up_the_irons, i don't know if it's integrated in any way with what kernel you boot.08:07
up_the_ironsstefano_: ok08:07
stefano_up_the_irons, can't you get just a driver (like a kernel module) for this usb to serial converter that you would just enable with modprobe? would be way easier than building a custom kernel08:08
bluej774pppZero: Thanks.08:08
souperwhy is it that when i set my swap in the fstab by the UUID blkid gives me swapon -a gives me an error about no such file or directory08:09
up_the_ironsstefano_: probably, but it's not available on keyspan's site, they say 'recompile the kernel'08:10
stefano_souper, you could have a problem with the swap partiton08:10
souperwell when i set it by /dev/sda6 it works fine08:10
up_the_ironsstefano_: they have kernel modules pre-built for other distros, but complain on their site that the debian/ubuntu distros didn't want to include their modules08:10
stefano_up_the_irons, thats too bad :( but you are not sure if you included all the right kernel bits and pieces for your sound are you?08:10
souperthe problem is the hibernate script suspends to the disk by uuid08:11
up_the_ironsstefano_: if you're interested: http://www.keyspan.com/downloads-files/developer/linux/08:11
stefano_hibernate is a pain :(08:11
up_the_ironsstefano_: i think i figured it out08:11
up_the_ironsstefano_: ubuntu includes it's own driver:08:11
up_the_irons/lib/modules/2.6.22-14-generic/ubuntu/media/snd-hda-intel08:11
up_the_irons/lib/modules/2.6.22-14-generic/ubuntu/media/snd-hda-intel/snd-hda-intel.ko08:11
souperand i'm not nearly experienced enough to understand shell scripts as complex as that08:12
up_the_ironsstefano_: and it disables it in the regular kernel.  I guess I just need to go ahead and enable it.  But i'm worried if there's anything special ubuntu did, i'll lose that08:12
stefano_up_the_irons, oh is this a binary only driver?08:12
stefano_up_the_irons, try to type "sudo modprobe snd-hda-intel" into a console and see if your sound suddenly works08:13
stefano_could be08:13
up_the_ironsstefano_: i don't think so, i see the option to enable it in 'make menuconfig'08:13
up_the_ironsstefano_: but ubuntu doesn't enable it, i guess in favor of it's own version08:13
stefano_up_the_irons, that's good, enable it and hope for the best08:13
stefano_up_the_irons, this kernel building business can really be a pain08:14
up_the_ironsstefano_: yeah i'm going to try08:14
up_the_ironsstefano_: for sure ;)08:14
souperup_the_irons: here's a shot in the dark but do you have a sound server like oss installed?08:14
stefano_up_the_irons, when i did it the first time, nothing would work. but it turned out that just waiting solved my issue (i needed some high-res tick stuff)08:15
cpk1__up_the_irons: you can use oldconfig when you recompile the kernel so you dont risk losing anything that was selected by ubuntu if thats what you are worried about08:15
stefano_thats a good tip08:15

up_the_ironscpk1: but this kernel was downloaded straight from kernel.org, it doesn't have a ubuntu specific 'oldconfig'08:17
[dcr]yes stefano_ i can08:17
pppZerobluej774, i honestly cant remember, its been a while since i played with videos :|08:17

pppZerobluej774, haha i dont blame you :)08:18
up_the_ironssouper: i'm pretty sure the problem is my new kernel doesn't have Intel HD Audio module built08:19
stefano_[dcr], then there is not much you can do about it. i have the same graphics chip in my notebook and 3d accelleration is a little sluggish, thats just the way it is, i turned off desktop effects. (since then games are much faster)08:19

m1rnp08:20
cpk1up_the_irons: yeah i think its "make oldconfig" and it will tell the new kernel to use your old config and then you can go through and make more changes after importing your old config, its important to note though that the ubuntu kernel usually has support for most everything08:20
stefano_[dcr], thats normal. but here's a tip, set the resolution down as much as you can (without going nuts), that should increase framerate dramatically. but Urban Terror is a pretty demanding game08:21

Werdnahey. I'm trying to set up my laptop running gutsy to connect to my new wireless network (old one worked fine), which uses DHCP (old used just MAC filtering). I'm not able to get an IP address (not receiving any DHCPOFFERs). I think it might be to do with an error that I get, ioctl[SIOCSIWAUTH] - Operation not supported. It's a laptop from c. 2003, so it may not support WPA. Where can I find out what the problem is?09:06
Extendyeah but i know there is a command line for it but i forgot it09:07
stefano_Extend, "uname -a" shows you the kernel version09:07

stefano_OsamaK, if you havent got much RAM, the ubuntu live cd might not work. if you want to install ubuntu anyway, you can use the "alternate cd", thats fairly easy, but you have to prepare your hard drive09:11
stefano_OsamaK, do you know how much RAM you have?09:12

souperOsamak, you could try installing via the OEM text-based install09:13
OsamaKWhat's that?09:13
JohnuahAsus EEEpc09:14
stefano_OsamaK, well sorry, i don't know why it doesnt work then. but i would recommend that you download the "alternate cd" and use it to install ubuntu on that machine, that would work most certainly09:14
stefano_Johnuah, about two hours09:14
OsamaKstefano_, link?09:14
souperit's on the live cd one of the other boot options09:14

OsamaKIs there a tornet file of it? stefano_09:14
stefano_OsamaK, http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download there is a little checkbox below the green "start download" button, check this box to get the alternate cd09:15
stefano_OsamaK, yes there is, but i don't know where, you can just use a mirror near you that should be fairly fast09:15
OsamaKwell, sorry for that09:16
stefano_OsamaK, did you get the link?09:17
TUplinkanyways ALSA is sound drivers right?09:17

Johnuahcould anyone give me a guide link of mail server installation based ubuntu server 710 with not only web browser but also pop3 & smtp09:18
Linuxchix0rthe kernel should detect your sound card if its supported09:18
TUplinkits an old mobo so im sure it should have drivers09:18
stefano_OsamaK, i don't know, you can search for it with google, there should be one, it should be named ubuntu-7.10-alternate something like that09:18

saqimtiazhey guys, I need some help with a Ubuntu 7.10 and Vista dual boot issue. I had an NTFS partition (X) that I was using in both, as of the last few days the partition is no longer accesible in vista, but works fine in Ubuntu. Vista always runs a chkdsk on it at startup and can see the files, but once booted cannot access the partition giving the error message: 'this drive or folder is corrupted and cannot be accessed'- Any ideas?09:22
Viktoriouswhen does ubuntu 8.04 come out and what will change09:22
Linuxchix0rit comes out in april09:23

stefano_souper, that sounds reasonable09:25
Linuxchix0rsouper it might be messed up09:25

stefano_ipe64, yes09:25
Viktoriousok kool but i wanna use firefox 3 now lol the beta  4 i used it on windows and luve it09:25
saqimtiazsouper, stefano_  thing is that my partition was working in both Vista and Ubuntu and stopped without fiddling with the partitions09:25
stefano_saqimtiaz, vista could have messed it up09:25
souperi've also read something about vista not liking being loaded by grub and that if you install the bootloader from the windows recovery environment it may work09:25

saqimtiazI'm trying to boot a live cd now, since I've royally broken my Ubuntu install. But right when it should start X the screen goes blank. Im guessing because it tries to use the internal lcd (which does not work) instead of the external monitor. Any ideas on how to get around that?09:32

Viktoriousi havt the firefox tar.bz2 on my desktop how do i nistall it09:34
stefano_tekknokrat, when you log in, there are two buttons, one is called session and the other one should be language or something like that, there you can select the language you want that session to be in, it also asks you if you want to make that language default. if your language doesnt apear in that list, you need to install the corresponding packages09:34
souperyou didn't do it via apt-get?09:34
stefano_Viktorious, don't use the tar.gz it tends to mess things up09:34
Viktoriousthats how it told me to do it coz i did the package one and said updates done and nuting09:35

ProbeDoti need to connect to it via internet, i have 50 xp stations connected to a 2003 server using roaming profiles (desktop,my documents,registery,etc are stored on the server), the internet gateway is the centos server, so i have a local network with local ip's and the internet network with the internet ip,10:41
ProbeDot the problem is that i need a laptop using a internet conection to connect to the local area network via internet, i need all windows networking features available, somehow, that laptop must endup connected to the lan with a lan ip10:41
geirhamicadeyeye: the sound drivers probably can't handle the suspend. It's usually fixed by telling acpi to unload the module before suspending, and reload it after the system is back10:41
geirhamicadeyeye: you do this by editing /etc/default/acpi-support, and add the sound driver module to the MODULES="" variable10:42
