[00:00] <Slart> Karsyth: where are those gcf files stored? do you have the path?
[00:00] <Karsyth> Slart: is it possible that my drive "thinks" that there is only 2gb of space?
[00:00] <arrow> cube: look at this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsXPPrinter?highlight=%28windows%29%7C%28printer%29%7C%28up%29%7C%28setting%29
[00:00] <amenado> Juan see this nice tutorial http://users.bigpond.net.au/hermanzone/p15.htm
[00:00] <icesword> hi,good morning
[00:00] <gbz> gintu: ok well if all regular users have home directorys, maybe you can find them, eg /home/gintu means gintu is a user ?
[00:00] <Juan> amenado, ubuntu wrote the menu.lst and it must be because it boots when i go thru the menu
[00:00] <Karsyth> Slart: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59546/
[00:00] <amenado> Juan modify it yourself then per your customization needs
[00:01] <Juan> amenado, but is that what causes xp to set itself as default?
[00:01] <Slart> Karsyth: that just means that find can't access the folder.. it doesn't mean there's a file named gcf there
[00:02] <Karsyth> Slart: i tried running as root and it just went to a new line with no results
[00:02] <Juan> amenado, my temp fix is every time i go off xp, boot the gutsy live cd and remove the boot flag from the xp partition
[00:02] <gintu> gbz: not all users have home directors ex /root, there should be a command to list the users and there doesn't appear to be :(
[00:02] <amenado> Juan i gave you a link to read up..
[00:02] <Slart> Karsyth: "sudo find / | grep -i gfc" didn't work?
[00:02] <amenado> Juan see this nice tutorial http://users.bigpond.net.au/hermanzone/p15.htm
[00:02] <Pelo> GIn, try with sudo apt-get install gnome-core ,I think thats wil install all the required  dependencies and get you a full desktop withouth the rest of the ubuntu stuff
[00:02] <Juan> sorry, didnt catch that
[00:02] <gbz> gintu: well i am stumped ;)
[00:03] <gintu> gbz: me too, back into windows land for me x_x
[00:03] <cube> arrow, so i use samba then right?
[00:03] <Karsyth> Slart: it found 2 things, /usr/share/app-install/desktop/gfceu.desktop and /usr/share/app-install/icons/gfceu.png
[00:03] <gintu> gbz: thanks for your time.
[00:03] <Slart> Karsyth: and those two aren't using up gigabytes of your space..
[00:03] <gbz> gintu: try google if you cannot find an answer here, must be possible
[00:04] <Karsyth> Slart: let me double check
[00:04] <amenado> Juan also  man update-grub
[00:04] <Slart> Karsyth: so.. we can do this.. "sudo apt-get clean" and "sudo apt-get autoclean"
[00:04] <gintu> gbz: i have a few hours into it already and nothing comes up, i want to know how "users settings" gui does it because that's what i want
[00:04] <Pelo> gintu, what is it you are trying to do ?
[00:04] <arrow> cube, never done it myself, just knew that I've seen the page while searching on how to set up my printer.
[00:04] <Slart> Karsyth: and then you can do this "sudo find / | grep -i trash" see what kind of trash folders you can find.. these should be empty
[00:05] <gintu> Pelo: list all the user accounts on a system just like Sys->Admin->Users and Groups
[00:05] <gintu> Pelo: but from the command line
[00:05] <Pelo> gintu, man users ,  you can probably do a users -l or soemting to list the available account
[00:05] <Karsyth> Slart: holy shit, it found a ton in the trash
[00:06] <Karsyth> Slart: but its not showing up in my trash bin
[00:06] <Slart> Karsyth: told you to empty your trash =)
[00:06] <gintu> Pelo: i have looked at the man pages for all the user related commands... so man users "users currently logged in" -- i want users not logged in also
[00:06] <mauro_rioiv> Slart: i download the .deb file ... and the same error apears ...
[00:06] <Karsyth> Slart: its empty though, it doesnt let me clean it
[00:06] <gintu> Pelo: do you know how to get it to display not logged in users ?
[00:06] <Slart> Karsyth: it doesn't always do that... the trashbin is.. well .. not entirely reliable
[00:06] <Karsyth> Slart: alright, so how do i clean it out?
[00:06] <Lawrence111> Hello folks.. wrong server :)
[00:06] <Slart> mauro_rioiv: then the package is broken from the source.. you'll have to wait until they fix it..
[00:07] <mauro_rioiv> ok, tks
[00:07] <Pelo> gintu, ask in ##linux , this can be done, I'M just not 1337 enough to tell you how
[00:07] <GIn> thank you Pelo
[00:07] <gintu> Pelo: apparently google isn't either :) i'll try in linux then, thanks.
[00:07] <mixed> is it possible to uninstall ttthe latest version  of kde3 and install an earlier version of KDE  3?
[00:07] <Slart> Karsyth: the easiest and safest way would be to use nautilus... I would run this in a terminal "gksudo nautilus".. but be very careful with that nautilus window.. you can kill your entire system if you drag and drop something by mistake.. or remove the wrong folder
[00:08] <Pelo> gintu, search along the line of user permission, or groups
[00:08] <caseyz> has anyone successfully gotten webcams to work on stickam? i just saw a guyy do it
[00:08] <Slart> Karsyth: so keep any small children away.. lock up the dog and the cat.. etc etc
[00:08] <Pelo> mixed, probably you should ask in #kde
[00:08] <gintu> Pelo: what I found about groups / permissions only relates to those accounts logged in :(
[00:08] <RichW> Can data still be fed to stdin once the program has been started on linux?
[00:08] <helpmeowh> can some teach me about partition ...
[00:08] <mixed> Pelo, thank you, I will
[00:08] <helpmeowh> I'm new and wanted to install ubuntu
[00:09] <Pelo> gintu, you just need to get the list of users ?   cd /home , ls
[00:09] <Karsyth> Slart: um, i think i might have possibly put my trash in my trash "?"
[00:09] <thiefness> helpmeowh: follow the installer instructions?
[00:09] <caseyz> Anyone?
[00:09] <Karsyth> Slart: im seeing some files that look like they are associated with trash apps
[00:09] <Pelo> helpmeowh, what do you need to know
[00:09] <seb962>  just moved my HD to a new mobbo, it's an Asus m2n-mx, and now I'm getting a kernel panic: timer not connected to ioapic. I've tried booting with noapic as everyone suggest, but then my keyboard gets disabled... I'm trying to boot from the live cd, and it happens aswell! any thoughts?
[00:09] <Pelo> caseyz,  you are not being ignored this is just a busy channel , ask your question again periodicaly
[00:09] <caseyz> can i switch from video4linuxv2 to v1?
[00:09] <caseyz> ok
[00:09] <Mongo2> hi
[00:09] <helpmeowh> ok i alraeady make a partition with ext3 .... how bout mount point
[00:09] <Slart> Karsyth: ok.. what kind of files?
[00:10] <caseyz> Stickam finds my webcam, but it does not turn on, is there some sort of problem?
[00:10] <thiefness> helpmeowh: mount point for the linux partition should be /
[00:10] <caseyz> msn and skype turn it on
[00:10] <icesword> helpmeowh, usually, you need a / partition and /swap partition
[00:10] <Pelo> caseyz, I can't answer your quesiton, try searching in the forum www.ubuntuforums.org , if noone else here can ehlp you
[00:10] <genii> seb962: Perhaps try usb_handoff as an option along with noapic
[00:10] <helpmeowh> owh
[00:10] <Odd-rationale> icesword: swap not /swap.
[00:10] <caseyz> they guy i spoke with said he was on 6.10 and his webcam works perfectly
[00:10] <icesword> hmm
[00:10] <seb962> genii I'm going to do some research on that command. Thanks a lot
[00:10] <p221072> Question: I have Ubuntu on an external usb drive, now I changed laptop and the new one has an Intel Core 2 Duo Cpu, should I update the kernel to support the dual core?
[00:11] <gintu> Pelo: so that works if they have a home directory in /home only -- User settings picks up the root account also
[00:11] <Karsyth> Slart: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59547/
[00:11] <Pelo> helpmeowh,  if you are using the manual partitionning step of the instaler, you will get asked for what partiton mounts to wath in the next step
[00:11] <seb962> Oh that's it, I'm so stupid.
[00:11] <helpmeowh> ucesword .... do i need to make many partion for every /boot , /home and etc .... one partition for 1 mount point
[00:11] <seb962> The kernel is outdated... This one is a dualcore!
[00:11] <Slart> p221072: I think both use the same kernel.. unless you want to use a 64 bit kernel.. that doesn't really give you much of a performance boost
[00:11] <Pelo> gintu, the /home for the root user is /root
[00:12] <genii> seb962: dual core should not matter, the default kernel is smp enabled
[00:12] <helpmeowh> i already make 2 partition now , one is ext3 and one is swap ...
[00:12] <p221072> ok, but can I know if I'm actually taking advantage of it?
[00:12] <gintu> Pelo: can't users have their home directory in other locations and then listing the home directory in this method would break?
[00:12] <seb962> genii: Good to know. I'm a big big green novice heh.
[00:12] <Pelo> helpmeowh,  we slightly above average users like to have our /home on a seperate partiton,
[00:13] <Slart> Karsyth: ah.. those aren't deleted files.. that's icons for the trashcan and such.. but check the folder /home/karsyth/.Trash  that should be empty
[00:13] <seb962> genii: Mind you both my mouse and keyboard are ps2... Wont that prejudice the solution?
[00:13] <Karsyth> Slart: yes that folder is empty
[00:13] <Pelo> gintu, not sure, on the one computer, all the home should be in one partiton under /home,  I don'T think different users can have their /home on differennt partitons,
[00:13] <Slart> Karsyth: it's more a problem when you have more than one hard drive.. then you get one .Trash on each drive
[00:13] <helpmeowh> so Pelo .... how many partition i should create right now ?
[00:14] <Pelo> gintu,  actualy they probabaly can but they would need to be mounted under  /home
[00:14] <helpmeowh> is it 3 ??
[00:14] <techt0nix> !fixres | techt0nix
[00:14] <gintu> Pelo: well that's good enough for now I guess, thanks :) I hope to find a better way soon.
[00:14] <Slart> Karsyth: so.. you're still missing about 8GB of free disk space, right?
[00:14] <Karsyth> Slart: correct
[00:14] <genii> seb962: That option usb_handoff works often on certain chipsets, even if the mouse or keyboard is ps2 and not usb
[00:14] <Karsyth> Slart: i havent done anything since you told me to run Nautilus
[00:14] <Pelo> helpmeowh,  3 is what I have for basic work ,    5-10 gig for / in ext3,  2xRAM ( max 2gig) for swap , the rest for  /home in ext3
[00:15] <helpmeowh> pelo owh occay
[00:15] <helpmeowh> thx ...
[00:15] <helpmeowh> so i will create 3 right
[00:15] <seb962> genii: Well, you gave me something new to try and revolve around. I really appreciate it, thanks!!!!
[00:15] <Pelo> helpmeowh,  you can always add more partitons later , you are not stuck with any of this
[00:15] <Karsyth> Slart: i have Nautilus open, where should i go from here?
[00:15] <laz0r> hi #ubuntu, i have this problem -> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/meta-kde/+bug/79101 but on ubuntu gutsy; is there by any chance a known solution for this?
[00:15] <caseyz> http://pastebin.com/m23468f0d
[00:15] <genii> seb962: Please report back results, either good or not
[00:15] <seb962> By the way, if I manage to boot the system I already had installed in my HD... Will I be able to run it? Or I'll need to reinstall ubuntu?
[00:16] <helpmeowh> so the remaining or the biggest size of the partition will go to /home
[00:16] <seb962> Genii: I sure will my friend :)
[00:16] <Pelo> laz0r, bugs listed in launchpad have fixes posted there as well when they become available
[00:16] <Slart> Karsyth: run this command in a terminal "du /* -sh" and pastebin the result..
[00:17] <genii> seb962: If the old install works will depend greatly on the differences in hardware between the old and new system. So impossible to tell
[00:17] <caseyz> http://pastebin.com/m23468f0d
[00:17] <Pelo> helpmeowh, that is where all your data and settings are saved,  and where you actualy work from , the rest is just executables and os stuff
[00:17] <seb962> genii: It'll be fun to try. brb
[00:17] <Karsyth> Slart: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59548/
[00:18] <helpmeowh> Pelo is swap is needed ..... can i know is swap will maker processing process faster than windows ??
[00:18] <goose> I need help getting my java to work in firefox
[00:19] <Pelo> helpmeowh,  swap is basicaly a memory extension to your hdd,  I don'T use much of it myself but it is used by most progs at some points, you don'T need a big one ,  2 gig max, if you have a lot of memory you can even go lower
[00:19] <Slart> Karsyth: you're not even close to using all of your 20GB hard drive.. what does df -hl output?
[00:19] <goose> I can't get the "add photos" applet on facebook (which is a java applet) to work. does anyone know of a fix for this?
[00:19] <Pelo> goose, sudo apt-get install sun-java5-plugin
[00:19] <helpmeowh> Pelo ... What is Primary and logical .... which one i should use ??
[00:20] <Pelo> helpmeowh,  you can only get up to 4 primairy partitons on a hdd,  anymore and it must be 3 primaries and the rest in logical
[00:20] <Karsyth> Slart: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59549/
[00:20] <helpmeowh> occay
[00:20] <goose> Pelo, sun-java5-plugin is already the newest version.
[00:20]  * Pelo corrects helpmeowh 's spelling to okay
[00:21] <Slart> Karsyth: did you do the "sudo apt-get clean" and "sudo apt-get autoclean" ?
[00:21] <Karsyth> Slart: yes
[00:21] <helpmeowh> owh okay
[00:21] <Pelo> goose, check the firefox settings,  make sure javascript is enabled,  that is mroe likely your issue
[00:21] <Karsyth> Slart: ill run them again real quickj
[00:21] <goose> Pelo, that was the first thing I checked
[00:22] <Karsyth> Slart: still using space
[00:22] <Pelo> goose, might try looking this up in the forum , maybe someone posted about it  www.ubuntuforums.org
[00:22] <Slart> Karsyth: then run this "du /usr/* -sh"
[00:22]  * Pelo wonders if GIn  managed to get gnome installed 
[00:22] <goose> Pelo, I checked them out, but I was hoping I might get a more immediate response on IRC than I would on the forums.
[00:22] <Slart> Karsyth: to see what's in your /usr folder
[00:23] <GIn> Pelo, got an error when trying to run startx
[00:23] <laz0r> Pelo, mmh, there doesn't seem to be any kind of fix on launchpad, so i guess there is none, thanks anyways
[00:23] <Karsyth> Slart: a few GB in there. all i have installed in there is enemy territory which takes 900mb though
[00:23] <helpmeowh> owh okay .. i will go out first
[00:23] <helpmeowh> thx all
[00:23] <GIn> it says no valid fontpath could be found
[00:23] <Pelo> goose, I meant searching, not posting,  you could also try asking in #firefox, maybe they know what needs to bedone
[00:23] <Karsyth> Slart: anything else i didnt touch
[00:23] <Pelo> GIn, what is the error ?
[00:23] <GIn> Pelo, it says no valid fontpath could be found
[00:23] <Slart> Karsyth: and "du /home/karsyth/* -sh" ?
[00:23] <goose> Pelo, thanks for the suggestion
[00:24] <caseyz> this webcam issue is making me mad
[00:24] <Karsyth> Slart: around 500mvb
[00:24] <Pelo> GIn, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg ,  use the default answers provided unless you absolutely know better
[00:24] <Karsyth> Slart: 500mb *
[00:24] <GIn> Pelo, I done that already
[00:24] <Chris|> anyone know a good vnc server/viewer?
[00:24] <Pelo> caseyz, webcam in linux is a pain
[00:24] <caseyz> it sure it
[00:24] <caseyz> i just want it to work with stickam, my friend plugged his in and bam it works :/
[00:25] <Pelo> GIn, hold on , let me see if I can't find a font pacakge related to gnome
[00:25] <Karsyth> Slart: what do i do about those files i found in the bin eariler?
[00:25] <Karsyth> Slart: i think those might have been it.
[00:26] <techt0nix> what is the .conf file called that has my res that my video card trys to run?
[00:26] <Slart> Karsyth: those files weren't in the trash bin.. they were in /usr/lib and such..
[00:26] <techt0nix> i been there once i just cant remember
[00:26] <GIn> Pelo, I'm thiking to mount mu home dir over ssh through some program on WIndows so I can edit files in windows
[00:26] <Pelo> GIn, if all you need is to edit txt files, why not just use nano ?
[00:26] <Karsyth> Slart: well can i delete them anyways? they are associated with steam and wine
[00:27] <Karsyth> Slart: which is what i was trying to do in the first place
[00:27] <Slart> Karsyth: what files are you talking about?
[00:27] <Karsyth> Slart: ill show you
[00:27] <GIn> Pelo, not only edit files, not also transfer files
[00:27] <GIn> with a mountpoint in windows, I can drag and drop
[00:27] <Cyr4x> does anyoe use audacious on gutsy?
[00:27] <Cyr4x> i've got an annoying issue with equalizer
[00:28] <Slart> Cyr4x: sometimes.. yes
[00:28] <Pelo> GIn do you mind having the full ubuntu destkop installed ?  you can always remove the extra stuff yuou don'T need ?    sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[00:28] <Cyr4x> everytime i start the program equalizer bars change
[00:28] <snypzz> just wanted to say thank you for this channel 24 / 7
[00:28] <snypzz> much appreciated !!!
[00:29] <peleg> Is there a way to control "encoding" or any other locale options in "writer"? I wrote a document in Hebrew, and exported it to .doc - I can read it well in openOffice, but my friend has Microsoft Word and she sees everything in Gibberish. Any ideas?
[00:29]  * Pelo is now realy puzzles has to how to just install basic gnome from the repos 
[00:29] <Cyr4x> even if i save my preset
[00:29] <Slart> Cyr4x: I've never used the equalizer.. I just have it as a quick way of playing wav-files or a singe mp3
[00:29] <Cyr4x> everytime program stars equalizer is changed
[00:29] <Karsyth> Slark: jesus it took me a long time to JUSt copy it
[00:29] <Slart> peleg: does microsoft word support hewbrew?
[00:29] <Karsyth> Slark: im pasting now
[00:29] <GIn> Pelo, I'll try that
[00:30] <seb962> Well, it seems that the usb_handoff worked, but now I'm having another concern consequent to the last one heh.
[00:30] <peleg> slart: yes, completely
[00:30] <Cyr4x> so what do you use as a main music/radio player?
[00:30] <Karsyth> Slark: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59550/
[00:30] <Karsyth> Slark: its a big one
[00:30] <Slart> peleg: oh.. then I have no idea..
[00:30] <caseyz> hmmm
[00:30] <caseyz> idea
[00:30] <caseyz> brb
[00:31] <peleg> slart: thanks.
[00:31] <GIn> need to get 400MB :S
[00:31] <Karsyth> Slark: thats what comes up when i run sudo find / | grep -i trash
[00:31] <seb962> Whenever I'm booting from the livecd using noapic and usb_jhandoff options, my monitor goes out of frequency (it jumps to 64mhx, my max is 60), so I can't see anything but I hear the system boot. Any ideas??
[00:31] <peleg> any other ideas buddies?
[00:31]  * GIn goes get a coffee
[00:31] <Yashy> I'm getting spontaneous reboots. If I do "last | grep reboot" they all end at 17:11. I've not created any root or user level cronjobs.
[00:31] <Cyr4x> i've tried also exaile. that's what i want, but the sound quality sux
[00:31] <Slart> Karsyth: ah.. those you can delete.. yes.. /root/.Trash is the trashbin for root..
[00:32] <Karsyth> Slart: how do i delete them, through Nautilus?
[00:32] <Karsyth> Slart: because they dont show up in my trash bin
[00:32] <Slart> Karsyth: use that nautilus window you opened using gksudo
[00:32] <techt0nix> can noone tell me the conf file with my monitor res?
[00:32] <Dr_willis> Delete the trash and it puts the trash back in the trash. :)
[00:32] <Dr_willis> This is when it pays to  learn the shell.
[00:32] <Juan> im on gutsy and after todays update i have no sound
[00:32] <Dr_willis> techt0nix,  all of X is confiogured by the xorg.conf file
[00:32] <Pelo> GIn,  sudo apt-get install gnome is suppose to get you tthe full gnome desktop without the ubuntu extras,  I've gettiung this from the packages.ubuntu.com site
[00:32] <Slart> Karsyth: I think you can use.. shift+delete to "delete forever.. I never want it back.. just do it, trust me"
[00:32] <Dr_willis> techt0nix,  the moniotor modelines are either in there, or the video drivers get them from the monitor  when X starts
[00:33] <Thurin1> Can Ubuntu handle 2 mouse inputs at the same time? - when I try to run inputattach --mman /dev/ttyS0 I get the error "cannot set line discipline" (Yes I also have the extra mouse in my xorg.conf.. but still only one, the USB one, works. - any suggestions? Or is this not desirable under Ubuntu?
[00:33] <Juan> i have no sound on alsa
[00:33] <Karsyth> Slart: yep this is definitly it, it says its around 9GB
[00:33] <Karsyth> Slart: funny how it doesnt show up anywhere else
[00:33] <Slart> Dr_willis: the shell is nice.. but a typo can destroy so much...an extra space and here come mr reinstall for a surprise visit =)
[00:34] <Karsyth> Slart: maybe because its under a fake C: drive?
[00:34] <Dr_willis> Thurin1,  i have several machines with more then 1 mouse. I just got  /dev/input/mice for the main inpt
[00:34] <techt0nix> Dr_willis, i was there before i just cant remember what it was it was not xorg.conf, it didnt have anything in the file but my monitor res if that helps
[00:34] <Thurin1> Dr_willis: Are they all USB/PS2 mice?
[00:34] <Slart> Karsyth: nope.. it's because it's in the root trashbin.. since you're never logged on as root.. you won't be able to empty it
[00:34] <Karsyth> Slart: i think that fixed my problem
[00:34] <Karsyth> Slart: man, you have no idea how much i appreciate your help
[00:34] <Thurin1> Dr_willis: One of mine is a Serial the other USB - the dual set works well in FreeBSD but ... not here for some reason
[00:34] <Dr_willis> Slart,  and with Nautulus running as root.. you have 2 BIGGER isues.. #1 - you may forget WHICH nautulus window is running as root. thus messing up things.. OR a miss-drag can  render the system totally messed up. I will stick with the shell.
[00:34] <Slart> Karsyth: yay.. you've got your 10 GB free now?
[00:35] <Karsyth> Slart: i was about to format
[00:35] <Karsyth> Slart: im almost positive i got it back
[00:35] <Slart> Karsyth: you're welcome
[00:35] <gr1ff1n> hello

[00:36] <gr1ff1n> can anyone help me with that : "intltoolize: 'po/Makefile.in.in' is out of date: use '--force' to overwrite", don t know what to do anymore ? pls
[00:36] <Slart> Dr_willis: that's not so bad.. never thought about that..
[00:36] <Thurin1> Dr_willis: A few distro's already do that
[00:36] <Karsyth> Dr_willis: how do i do that? lol
[00:36] <Dr_willis> Thurin1,   a serial mouse would be /dev/input/psaux i belive. I dont even have a ps2 mouse any more.  all usb ones seem to use /dev/input/mice for me.
[00:36] <Thurin1> Well not a "few" but I know at least two that I have tried that were like that - I think one of them was Vector Linux
[00:37] <Thurin1> Dr_willis: Let me give that a shot..
[00:37] <Pelo> gr1ff1n, use that same command that got you the error msg but put --force at the end
[00:37] <Juan> sound on gutsy stopped working ofr me today, any help?
[00:37] <Dr_willis> I see people in here  complaining that the root users themes are not the same as the normal user.. :)  I feel they should default to a Huge Flashing RED theme. :)
[00:37] <gr1ff1n> pelo: I tried it, but still the same
[00:38] <Dr_willis> I forget how to set the root users gnome themes however.. run some gnome theme tool as root and set it i guess. :)
[00:38] <Pelo> Juan, review what you have done before it stopped working ,  did you play with alsa settings ? did you play with permissions ? do you still hve a volume icon in your pannel ?
[00:38] <Pelo> gr1ff1n,  what's the command ?
[00:38] <Juan> nothing
[00:38] <Juan> all i can think of is a vlc update
[00:38] <Karsyth> going to reboot, brb
[00:38] <Juan> btw oss IS working
[00:38] <gr1ff1n> ./autogene.sh, trying to install awn-curve

[00:38] <Juan> but why did alsa stop working
[00:38] <ninj1> hey whats a good binary for burning mp3 music discs for my car?
[00:39] <Juan> its not just vlc, the system sound with alsa is gone
[00:39] <apecross> hi

[00:40] <gr1ff1n> Pelo: thanks anyway

[00:40] <peleg> can someone explain me these shortcuts? - C-x means ctrl-x. M-x means what?
[00:41] <Slart> peleg: Meta+X.. usually Alt I think

[00:41] <ninj1> what's a good burning software for linux so i can burn an mp3 disc for my car?
[00:41] <Slart> peleg: you can change what key the meta key is.. it's in .. perhaps keyboard settings
[00:41] <peleg> Pelo: probably not; it's on texinfo manual
[00:41] <Juan> maybe someone h4x0r3d me
[00:41] <Slart> ninj1: brasero is one
[00:41] <Enron> hi I added a file in /etc/cron.d/file with this: 0-55/5 *        * * *   root    /usr/bin/perl /usr/lib/cgi-bin/awstats.pl -update - config=blah.com >/dev/null
[00:41] <Pelo> apecross, open a terminal and type   blkid see if you can tell if the comp sees your zen
[00:41] <Enron> will this work?
[00:41] <ninj1> thanks slart
[00:41] <peleg> slart: but what *should* it be, by default?
[00:42] <Pelo> apecross, I don'T allow private msg, please talk to me in the channel
[00:42] <Enron> If I want to run this command every 2 min how would I do it: /usr/bin/perl /usr/lib/cgi-bin/awstats.pl -update - config=blah.com >/dev/null
[00:42] <apecross> pelo it show just my hd
[00:43] <Pelo> Enron, I think you want to add taht line by editing   with sudo crontab -e ,  and you can change the time to some ting close to see if it works,
[00:43] <apecross> /dev/sda1: UUID="e13883ad-cfc6-47c7-9a53-5f227b1211a3" SEC_TYPE="ext2" TYPE="ext3"
[00:43] <apecross> /dev/sda5: UUID="bf41b9d4-a891-48c6-bd62-d1f00b21a5e3" TYPE="swap"
[00:43] <Pelo> apecross, do you have other usb device you can use to test ?
[00:43] <Enron> Pelo can you show me what it should look like
[00:43] <Slart> peleg: difficult questions.. I've changed mine.. don't know what the default is
[00:44] <apecross> u mean like an ipod??
[00:44] <Pelo> Enron, it will look like what you typed but it will be a line in the crontab file for root, which your get with sudo crontab -e
[00:44] <Pelo> apecross, or just your basic usb flash drive ,
[00:44] <apecross> ok
[00:44] <Pelo> apecross, just so you can test that it,s not the usb outlet that is defective
[00:47]  * Pelo feels like playing around with conky but he's not sure what else he could add 
[00:47] <Thurin1> Conky?
[00:47] <Thurin1> :(
[00:47] <Thurin1> Dr_willis: No psaux and I really do not feel like doing a makedev, not now anyways.. ah well
[00:47] <Pelo> Thurin1, conky is an applet that displays system info on your desktop , as part of the background
[00:47] <Thurin1> Pelo: I know what it is
[00:47] <Pelo> Thurin1, you do not like conky ?
[00:47] <apecross> pelo my pen drive is working
[00:48] <Thurin1> No I do not
[00:48] <Thurin1> But to each his own I suppose
[00:48] <Pelo> apecross, might be specific to that type of device then,  in other comps or on other oses, does it mount as a usb drive or does it need a special app ?
[00:49] <Pelo> Thurin1, I ust wanted someting with a little less resource consumptuion,  I made it look nice
[00:49] <Slart> peleg: add the "keyboard indicator" to the gnome panel.. there you can right click on it.. select "show current layout".. that shows you where your meta keys are.. and super keys etc etc
[00:49] <basskozz> Need help getting hellanzb + SSL to work, anyone care to lend a hand?
[00:49] <DrZaius55> Is this an appropriate place to discuss hardy?
[00:49] <Starnestommy> DrZaius55: #ubuntu+1 is
[00:49] <DrZaius55> Fair enough.. thanks
[00:49] <Pelo> brb

[00:52]  * Pelo cheers at the arrival of nickrud 
[00:52] <Dr_willis> Thurin1,  the makdev stuff has been outdated for ages i thought.  It may be some modiule aint getting loaded. I havent messed with ps2 devices in ages
[00:53] <Dr_willis> Thurin1,  its /dev/psaux it seems . Not /dev/input/psaux - on this machine
[00:53] <Thurin1> Dr_willis: It's not PS2 :| It's serial that's why I said /dev/ttyS0
[00:53] <nontitle> hi everyone
[00:53] <Dr_willis> Thurin1,  crw-rw---- 1 root root 10, 1 2008-03-03 13:19 /dev/psaux
[00:53] <nontitle> I've installed ubuntu onto a USB stick and I'm using a CD to boot off it, as I usually bring it to friend's houses. I've modified the gdm script in /etc/init.d to automatically reconfigure X each time ubuntu is run. But I've run into a problem.
[00:54] <Dr_willis> Thurin1,  ahh.. egads man.. thats... WAY old. :)
[00:54] <Thurin1> PS2/USB has no problem it's the serial mouse that has a problem
[00:54] <nontitle> One of my friends uses an ATI video card, and I use an nVidia video card at home. Whenever I go to install the ATI drivers, though, it wants to uninstall the nVidia drivers. Now I could probably get around that, but will this break anything if I have both drivers installed at once?
[00:54] <damaltor> did anyone here ever use lcd4linux? everything works fine, just want some hints =)
[00:54] <Dr_willis> Thurin1,  I forget what  the serial devices are even called. :) been so long.
[00:54] <Thurin1> Dr_willis: Yes it is - but by tonight I will have no choice ;D - my USB optical is on it's last legs
[00:54] <basskozz> Besides the Ubuntu Forums, where is a good place to ask a question regarding: hellanzb+SSL ?
[00:54] <Pelo> nontitle, set it to always use vese that should make it able to run on all cards
[00:54] <damaltor> Dr_willis: /dev/ttyS# ? :)
[00:54] <Pelo> nontitle, vesa
[00:54] <Thurin1> Dr_willis: How dare you forget - never forget! XD
[00:55] <Thurin1> Yes it is /dev/ttyS0 slack had it
[00:55] <Dr_willis> Thurin1,   I actually had several serial terminals on my liniux machines years ago.
[00:55] <nontitle> yeah, I have that already working
[00:55] <Pelo> basskozz, hellanzb forums ?
[00:55] <Dr_willis> back when it was Cua## or somthing.
[00:55] <Thurin1> Dr_willis: Very cool
[00:55] <nontitle> but I want the hardware acceleration with it
[00:55] <Thurin1> Dr_willis: It still is on MUlinux
[00:55] <basskozz> Pelo, where can I find the hellanzb forums?
[00:55] <basskozz> Pelo, where can I find the hellanzb forums?
[00:55]  * nickrud finds it amuzing to have ttyS* without serial ports
[00:55] <nontitle> I just need a way to have nvidia-glx and xorg-driver-fglrx installed at the same time
[00:55] <basskozz> oops sorry for the double post, finger slipped
[00:55] <xp_prg> anyone here?
[00:55] <Dr_willis> Thurin1,  that new Logitech VX Nano Mouse is nice. :) a micro-usb dongle..
[00:56] <xp_prg> anyone want to help me with creation of a vmware image of a small program I made for an opensource project?
[00:56] <Pelo> nontitle, that's over my head I'm afraid  , there are limitations to live cd ,  you might want to dl the .deb for the restricted driver and hve it availalbe on your usb stick in the /apt/cache folder
[00:56] <Dr_willis> Hmm.. I think i have some serial to ps2 adaptors somewhere in my big-box-o-old-adaptors somewhere. :)
[00:56] <Pelo> basskozz, check on their website
[00:56] <xxxx443354> Ctrl - Alt - delete.... on windows brings up that task thing.... how do i set it up to do the smae on ubuntu?
[00:56] <nontitle> Pelo: I'm not using the live cd, I'm running ubuntu off a USB stick
[00:56] <nickrud> nontitle: the do conflict at the package level, you'd have to modify the packages themselves. But the nvidia is only an apt-get install away
[00:56] <Pelo> nickrud, you have unusual amusements
[00:57] <Dr_willis> xp_prg,  a vmware image is normally for a whole OS. Not just a program.   There are premade ubuntu  and jeos vmware images at the vmware appliance web site.
[00:57] <damaltor> Dr_willis: yeah, got one of theese boxes too... DEEP in cellar, but sometimes useful though
[00:57] <nickrud> Pelo: you're not the first (today, even) to say that
[00:58] <Pelo> nontitle, live enviromeent I mean,  such as a usb stick ,  put the deb for the restreicted drives in the /apt/cache folder or where ever the .deb files are kept that should allow you to isntall the restricted driver when you need it
[00:58] <peleg> Slart: still: I ask what the shortcut M-x means? what meta-key *should* it be?
[00:58] <xxxx443354> Ctrl - Alt - delete.... on windows brings up that task thing.... how do i set it up to do the smae on ubuntu?
[00:58]  * Pelo is starting to think nickrud is a bit kinky
[00:58] <nontitle> okay, I'll try that
[00:58] <Dr_willis> peleg,  meta key = alt, or ctrl.. :)  alt key i think...
[00:58] <syke> now that gcc-4.3 is released, will someone build a proper package for it and transfer gcc-snapshot to the gcc 4.4 trunk?
[00:58] <apecross> pelo i found on google some problem with MTP player
[00:58] <potato> kinky lol\\
[00:58] <Dr_willis> ^c = control C   M-C  = alt-c

[00:58] <nontitle> Pelo, WHAT? keep 3 feet away from nickrud
[00:58] <damaltor> peleg: try windows key... in some funny way it was called "master key" in some distros
[00:59] <damaltor> peleg: so type [windows]+x
[00:59] <xp_prg> Dr_willis, I know that, my laptop does not have enough memory to make one though, I need your help
[00:59] <nontitle> In KDE I think it's called Super L
[00:59] <Pelo> nontitle,  I prefer half-a-continent away :-)
[00:59] <nontitle> lol
[00:59]  * nickrud sniffs
[00:59] <damaltor> xp_prg: if you want to only run a single program, you ought to think about wine
[00:59]  * Pelo is getting confused by his own off topics
[00:59] <basskozz> Pelo where can I find the hellanzb forums, I can't seem to find them on the hellanzb web site, all I find is bug tracker
[01:00]  * Pelo pats nickrud on the back , with a ten foot pole 
[01:00] <Lycade> ok, now that I've been trying this for awhile, I'm tired of doing it on my own. 1) LiveCD boot fails. It gives a blank screen and locks up after loading all processes. For 32-bit and 64-bit. 2) I installed using the alternate CD. Trying to boot, both normal and recovery mode, and it fails. I get to a black screen and the laptop locks up.
[01:00] <peleg> damaltor: tried, thanks... didn't work, though.
[01:00] <Pelo> basskozz, I 'm not saying there are hellanzb forums, but if you want help iwth that particular app you should see what they can offer
[01:00] <Yashy> I'm getting spontaneous reboots. If I do "last | grep reboot" they all end at 17:11. I've not created any root or user level cronjobs.
[01:01] <peleg> Dr_willis: tried alt as well. well, never mind - maybe the tutorial (for texinfo) is not so good... :-)
[01:01] <damaltor> peleg: well, then you will have no more real chances... a virtual environment takes up MUCH more memory then a single wine-loaded application
[01:01] <damaltor> Lycade: when does that black screen come?
[01:01] <peleg> damaltor: did you mean to talk to someone else there?
[01:01] <Pelo> Yashy, anyting that might be interfeering with the power to your computer causing it to restart ?
[01:01] <Lycade> damaltor, it comes after all proccesses are loaded (on the liveCD) with an "ok" after them, which is usually a few after the gnome display driver.
[01:02] <Dr_willis> peleg,  with emacs the escape key - is also somehow the meta-key
[01:02] <damaltor> peleg: yes, sry =)
[01:02] <Lycade> On the installed version, it gets to the end of the Ubuntu with the loading bar.
[01:02] <peleg> Dr_willis: thanks
[01:02] <Dr_willis> peleg,  whats it a tutorial/docs for anyway?
[01:02] <peleg> texinfo
[01:02] <peleg> http://www.gnu.org/software/texinfo/manual/texinfo/texinfo.html
[01:02] <Kiron> hi all who use proftp here?
[01:03] <peleg> there are a lot of keys for emacs there, but I can't handle it; it looks so unfriendly... ;-)
[01:03] <damaltor> Lycade: had that thing too. a very unusal solution worked for me: just wait a few secs and hit a key, the black screen came always right after boot and seemed to be kinda screensaver
[01:03] <revilodraw> how can i tell how hot my cpu is?
[01:03] <Pelo> revilodraw, read the manual ?
[01:03] <Karsyth> Slart: whats the command for searching files again?
[01:03] <damaltor> peleg: i dont like emacs either... \o/ VI \o/
[01:03] <Pelo> revilodraw,  nvm I missread your qwuesitono
[01:03] <Lycade> damaltor, I had thought it might be the same thing. However, my laptop gets locked up. I can't even turn caps lock on/off.
[01:03] <ader10> Is vnc over nx any faster than regular vnc?
[01:03] <Dr_willis> !info texinfo
[01:03] <ubotu> texinfo (source: texinfo): Documentation system for on-line information and printed output. In component main, is optional. Version 4.8.dfsg.1-6 (gutsy), package size 292 kB, installed size 2116 kB
[01:04] <Pelo> revilodraw, in the terminal type sensor , or sensors, I can'T remember which
[01:04] <Dr_willis> ader10,  i would be very much spuprised if it was faster
[01:04] <damaltor> Lycade: did you change anything in xorg.conf, or installed any drivers like display / nvidia / ati? or does this come directly after fresh install?
[01:04] <ader10> Dr_willis: thanks
[01:05] <tsmith0> hello, I recently started using ubuntu and i want to get all 3 of my monitors working. i have an ati 1900xt and a geforce 6100 on my motherboard; however i can only get one of them to work at a time. any suggestions?
[01:05] <ader10> Dr_willis: Have you ever won an award for sitting on irc helping people?
[01:05] <Lycade> damaltor, I only installed Ubuntu. I haven't gotten it to load at all from there.
[01:05] <Pelo> !dualhead | tsmith0
[01:05] <ubotu> tsmith0: Information about dual-head on linux can be found on http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/DualHead - See also !Xinerama
[01:05] <genii> !helpersnack | Dr_willis
[01:05] <ubotu> Dr_willis: Wow! You're such a great helper, you deserve a cookie!
[01:05] <Dr_willis> ader10,  ive gotten a lot of creative  words tossed at me - does that count?
[01:05] <damaltor> Lycade: Uh Oh... try to choose "recovery mode" in GRUB startup menu. does that work?
[01:05] <genii> ader10: We feed him cookies
[01:05] <Karsyth> anyone know why i still have wine files installed after removing them?
[01:06] <Pelo> Karsyth, removing how ?
[01:06] <Lycade> damaltor, No. That froze as well.
[01:06] <Karsyth> add / remove
[01:06] <ader10> Dr_willis: it doesn't count enough :P You should get canonical to award the most helpful people on #ubuntu somehow :P
[01:06] <Dr_willis> peleg, Im missing somthing here.. what does making a texinfo file. have to do with the meta keys? :) the text editors normally make use of those..
[01:06] <Dr_willis> ader10,  perferablay an award with a check, for my housepayment :)
[01:06] <Pelo> Karsyth, that just gets rid of the application, not he settings files or the data
[01:07] <damaltor> Lycade: that must be a very hard problem. did you try to use same cd in another computer? did you do the "check cd for errors" in cd startup menu?
[01:07] <Karsyth> Pelo: how do i clean my system of all wine / steam / anything else ive installed in wine related file?
[01:07] <Lycade> damaltor, I've done both. The cd was free of errors, and it did load on another computer.
[01:07] <peleg> Dr_willis: it's a part that explains about emacs, a well integrated editor with emacs
[01:07] <Pelo> Karsyth, sudo rm -r ~/.wine
[01:07] <damaltor> Karsyth: 1. apt-get remove wine 2. apt-get autoremove 3. rm -rf ~/.wine
[01:07] <Pelo> Karsyth, is steam a window app or a linux app ?
[01:07] <Scunizi> anyone know how to get to the harddrive on a dell vostro? It suddenly thinks the hd doesn't exist so I want to make sure it's seated properly.
[01:08] <Dr_willis> peleg, Ok. Your emacs - settings/editor are proberly the issue then. It may be the window manager is grabbing the key sequence also.
[01:08] <Karsyth> Pelo: wine
[01:08] <Pelo> Karsyth, that command I gave you ( as well as damaltor ) should take care of it
[01:08] <ader10> I love how I can ask the simplest questions and get an answer here... I can look like a complete fool and still have my problem solved :P
[01:08] <Dr_willis> peleg,  i got a book on emaca and they always use the 'esc-c' type  stuff instead of 'meta-c' in their docs.. which is annoying. :) but i perfer vi!
[01:08] <damaltor> Lycade: ...what the... is there anything special about that computer? is it a notebook? is there any special hardware?
[01:08] <Pelo> Karsyth, you might have to remvoe any menu entries manualy
[01:08] <Karsyth> Pelo: how do i do that?
[01:09] <Karsyth> Pelo: when i ran that command it just went to a new line, is that supposed to happen?
[01:09] <GIn> Pelo, still installing :\
[01:09] <Pelo> Karsyth, right click applications > edit menu
[01:09] <damaltor> Karsyth: yes
[01:09] <Dr_willis> well bbl. :)
[01:09] <Pelo> Karsyth, pretty much
[01:09] <Lycade> It is a notebook. An Hp Pavillion dv9009nr Notebook with AMD Turion 64 x2 (dual core processors)...
[01:09] <damaltor> Karsyth: no output means no errors =)
[01:09] <peleg> Dr_willis: well, I prefer SciTE... ;-)
[01:09] <Pelo> Karsyth, what were you expecting to happen ?
[01:09] <Lycade> damaltor,  Thats it. Just a standard HP notebook. =/
[01:09] <Karsyth> Pelo: not sure, im still new ish to linux
[01:10] <damaltor> Lycade: ok... Linux on notebooks is a funny thing, but my 3 notebooks work fine with ubuntu. give me a sec
[01:10] <Pelo> Karsyth, that's how decent OSes work,  no needless bells and wistles
[01:10] <Karsyth> Pelo: so wine and steam should now be removeed?
[01:11] <Lycade> damaltor, I agree. I've had 3 that didn't have problems as well. This is the first one that did all of this to me. -_- I do know that I have an nVidia Geforce 6150 graphics card. I feel like it might be a display issue with that card.
[01:11] <markrian> Problem: when I hit Ctrl+Alt+F[123456], instead of taking me to the relevant virtual terminal, my monitor enters standby mode. Pressing (Ctrl+)Alt+F7 brings me back to X without any problems, but I like my VTs! Any help as to how to begin fixing this?
[01:11] <Pelo> Karsyth, I do understand what you mean tho, there might hve been a > commnad cmplete , line or soemting
[01:11] <Karsyth> Pelo: yeah
[01:11] <ironfoot_495> I'm having a lot of trouble using sacreem is there something better than screem on gusty?
[01:11] <Lycade> Also, damaltor, thank you for this assistance.
[01:11] <ironfoot_495> screem
[01:11] <ironfoot_495> editor
[01:11] <Pelo> Karsyth, you removed the app with add /remove, you now removed the data folder with sudo rm -f  , and you got rid of any leftover menu entries,  yep, that's all of it
[01:11] <damaltor> Lycade: think so too... but wait a sec, i maybe have found something
[01:11] <damaltor> Lycade: give me a minute
[01:11] <kindofabuzz> any Gnome 2.22 debs out yet?
[01:12] <Pelo> ironfoot_495, what is screem ?
[01:12] <Pelo> kindofabuzz, in #ubuntu+1
[01:12] <kindofabuzz> k thanks
[01:12] <ironfoot_495> I'm having a lot of trouble using screem is there something better than screem on gusty?
[01:12] <damaltor> Lycade: do you know a bit about HP notebooks? is there another model similar to yours?
[01:12] <Pelo> ironfoot_495, what is screem ?
[01:12] <JimboDeLimbo> hello
[01:12] <JimboDeLimbo> having some trouble with gparted
[01:12] <Karsyth> Pelo: ok so now im set to re-install wine and steam?
[01:12] <Karsyth> Pelo: ok, thank you :D
[01:12] <GIn> peleg, worked :)
[01:13] <Karsyth> Pelo: lag..
[01:13] <GIn> Pelo, worked
[01:13] <ironfoot_495> Pelo: html&php editor
[01:13] <Lycade> damaltor, I do not have a model here that is similiar. The pavilion 9000 series are all about the same, I believe.
[01:13] <Pelo> jimmygoon, what is the issue
[01:13] <Pelo> GIn,  which one ubuntu-desktop or just gnome ?
[01:13] <Pelo> ironfoot_495, gedit
[01:13] <GIn> ubuntu-desktop
[01:13] <GIn> but it still got errors
[01:13] <GIn> although X does start
[01:13] <damaltor> Lycade: maybe this helps, did a good job for my old fujitsu notebook: http://www.linux-on-laptops.com/hp.html
[01:13] <ironfoot_495> yeah I think you're right.
[01:14] <christopher> hola
[01:14] <Pelo> GIn, cause right after you left , I found the correct package to install just gnome,   sudo apt-get install gnome ,   I'd missed it
[01:14] <Lycade> damaltor, I'll look though it. Thank you.
[01:14] <Pelo> GIn, what errors ?
[01:14] <damaltor> Lycade: if there is a similar one with same graphic adapter, maybe there is a hint about how to solve display problems
[01:14] <Pelo> !es | christopher
[01:14] <ubotu> christopher: Si busca ayuda en español por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es, allí obtendrá más ayuda.
[01:15] <Jack_Sparrow> Lycade, the 6000' nvidia should not have a problerm
[01:15] <GIn> Pelo, can't remeber
[01:15] <Pelo> geju, I don'T allow private msg, please talk to me in the channel
[01:15] <Penth> I don't know if this is specific to ubuntu but can someone tell me how to stream the contents of a file to a script?
[01:15] <Pelo> GIn,  well as long as you got what you wanted,  you can always deal with the errors later
[01:16] <Lycade> Jack_Sparrow, something is causing problems with my laptop when I'm booting up linux, whether for an install or liveCD. It locks up when trying to display anything.
[01:16] <Jack_Sparrow> Lycade, Ok.. so you cant get to a desltop where it shows the install icon
[01:17] <Jack_Sparrow> Lycade, sorry for the typos..  hands are sore
[01:17] <Lycade> Jack_Sparrow, correct. I had to use the alternate to install it. That also fails to load.
[01:17] <Alan_M> Youve been here all day jack, we expect typo's every now and then bud :)
[01:17]  * Pelo doesn't want to know why Jack_Sparrow 's hands are sore
[01:17] <Lycade> Jack_Sparrow, This is why damaltor  and myself believe it might be a display issue.
[01:18] <bazhang> heh
[01:18] <Jack_Sparrow> Lycade,  At start or install press F6 and remove Quiet and Splash from the command line. If it still fails repeat and add noapic acpi=off before the --
[01:18] <Lycade> Jack_Sparrow, I'll try that.
[01:19] <kindofabuzz> is this a know bug?  virtual terminals not working with compiz running?
[01:19] <Flummoxed`> of you
[01:19] <Pelo> kindofabuzz, maybe the ppl in #compiz know
[01:19] <Jack_Sparrow> Lycade, fyi  on option two.. you also remove quiet and splash when you add those oter commands
[01:19] <peleg> does anyone know about a graphical user interface for editing texinfo? (besides emacs); I need something that will know how to add, or at least highlight, @ commands.
[01:19] <kindofabuzz> gedit
[01:20] <Pelo> peleg, have you tried with gedit ?
[01:20] <kindofabuzz> kedit
[01:20] <kindofabuzz> hundreds probably
[01:20] <Jack_Sparrow> !editors
[01:20] <ubotu> Text Editors: gedit (GNOME), Kate (KDE), mousepad (Xfce4) - Terminal-based: nano, vi/vim, emacs - For HTML/CSS editors, see !html - For programming editors and IDE, see !code
[01:20] <kindofabuzz> nano ftw!
[01:20] <Karsyth> can anyone tell me what the most efficient way to install wine is?
[01:20] <kindofabuzz> there is a deb for wine
[01:20] <oloughlin75> sudo apt-get install wine
[01:20] <Karsyth> what i mean by that is without compiling and whatnot
[01:20] <Jack_Sparrow> Karsyth, sudo apt-get install wine
[01:20] <kindofabuzz> winehq.com
[01:20] <Karsyth> ok, thanks
[01:20] <Pelo> Karsyth, goto www.winehq.org and get the repos
[01:20] <hybrid-k1rnel> Karsyth, wine-doors
[01:20] <ut0mata> karsyth: sudo apt-get install wine
[01:21] <Pelo> Karsyth, I stand corrected , .com
[01:21] <Chris|> does anyone know how to set the brightness on ubuntu?
[01:21] <kindofabuzz> yeah don't at-get it until you add those repos to get the newest version
[01:21] <Lycade> Jack_Sparrow, I'm looking at the install that GRUB is using. Do you want me to go ahead and edit that one? It tells me to hit "e" to edit. Should I hit "C" there to go to command line? If so, what do I type in command line? :D
[01:21] <Chris|> when i unplug my ubuntu laptop from my charger the brightness decreases and it sucks
[01:21] <Pelo> 0.9.57 is very good
[01:21] <peleg> Pelo: yes. it looks like it highlights everything..
[01:21] <peleg> everything that starts with @
[01:21] <kindofabuzz> yeah 9.57 is very nice
[01:22] <kindofabuzz> wow works flawlessly with it =)
[01:22] <Jack_Sparrow> Lycade, Ok.. I think I see, you got it to install with the alt.. but will not come up.. right.. yes E to edit  etc
[01:22] <Carenthalas> Chris|: I think it is released to the Power Management.
[01:22] <Pelo> peleg, I think you can change the type of highlight from the preference meneues for various type or scrypting
[01:22] <Pelo> kindofabuzz, so do utorrent and progecad
[01:22]  * Chris| checks
[01:22] <Jack_Sparrow> Lycade, going that way you do not get to start or install...  not a prob
[01:23] <peleg> Pelo: I have done it; only after that it started to highlight @s...
[01:23] <Lycade> Jack_Sparrow, On the edit area, it has the following: root (hd1,1) Kernal /boot/vmlinuz some other stuff, initrd /boot/initrd and some other stuff, and quiet. Should I hit "d" to remove quiet? :x
[01:23]  * Pelo is so bored he's looking at random pick on icanhascheezburger.com
[01:23] <Scunizi> Chris|, that's typical of a laptop.. usually "fn" and the corresponding fn key (blue) will increase it.. if that feature is working in
[01:23] <scarr> Hihi
[01:23] <Carenthalas> Chris|: You can change the screen brightness level for both conditions using AC or battery.
[01:23] <Chris|> thanks Carenthalas i got it
[01:23] <Chris|> i looked at it earlier
[01:23] <Karsyth> ok, so what exactly is cedega?
[01:23] <Chris|> but over looked it
[01:24] <Chris|> that helps a lot
[01:24] <Karsyth> the main purpose of wine for me is steam
[01:24] <Chris|> thanks :)
[01:24] <Pelo> Karsyth, a commercial version of wine
[01:24] <Scunizi> Karsyth, wine commercially changed.. on steroids
[01:24] <Jack_Sparrow> Lycade, yes the line that has quiet and splash is the line to edit..  go ahead and add noapic acpi=off rith there before the "--"
[01:24] <Karsyth> do you guys recommend it for using steam?
[01:24] <scarr> Has anyone come across any weirdness with nm-applet and wireless connections?  Mine was working great, but now it won't stop spinning even though I'm connected fine.
[01:24] <Gopher99> is there a way to use wine to use the Steam already installed on another drive?  for instance my mounted windows drive?
[01:24] <Lycade> Jack_Sparrow, I'm looking at the line that has quiet. It says grub edit> quiet
[01:25] <Pelo> Gopher99, no
[01:25] <Lycade> Jack_Sparrow, do I just remove quiet?
[01:25] <bazhang> Karsyth: best to check the appdb to see how well steam works in wine
[01:25] <Carenthalas> How many users will use laptop with linux comparing with desktop with linux here?
[01:25] <kindofabuzz> because you probly got it watching the wrong eth connection..like if you have wireless and a eth port you will have eth0 and eth1
[01:25] <Jack_Sparrow> Lycade, One sec..
[01:25] <Y-Town> In Gnome-rdp I get the following error:  Error during the connection to database.   I have reloaded the software and still get the error... ANy ideas?
[01:25] <Pelo> Gopher99, wine creates it's own filetree with libs and dlls in it to run apps on , it has it's own regedit with appropriate keys
[01:25] <scarr> Carenthalas: I've got both, but I wouldn't have any hesitations in using Ubuntu for my laptop exclusively.
[01:25] <bazhang> Carenthalas: probably a mix of the two; do you have a support question?
[01:26] <Pelo> Y-Town, what is gnome-rpd ?
[01:26] <Jack_Sparrow> Lycade, Here is the line I use to boot this system  kernel		/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.22-14-generic root=UUID=6c6e7857-4174-48b3-8711-463352173b5f ro quiet splash noapic apm=on
[01:26] <Carenthalas> Someone suggests me to use Xbuntu instead of Ubuntu for my old Sony vaio laptop (P3-750/384MB RAM)....any idea?
[01:26] <gitpik> hi!
[01:26] <Y-Town> Pelo: Gnome-rdp    sorry
[01:26] <Jack_Sparrow> Carenthalas, not a bad choice for that machine
[01:26] <bazhang> Carenthalas: perhaps how much ram what cpu; fluxbuntu might be a better choice if ram is minimal
[01:26] <Dr_willis> Carenthalas,  ive ran ubuntu on much LOWER end machines then that..
[01:27] <scarr> Carenthalas: I've got a Thinkpad e600 that has straight up Ubuntu and it runs ok, but I am also considering Xubuntu for obvious reasons (the e600 is like a 400mhz machine)
[01:27] <Dr_willis> Carenthalas,  it depends on what you want to do with the machine. xubuntu will proberly do all you need for most common tasks.
[01:27] <Pelo> Carenthalas, xubuntu used xcfe as an envirounement, it uses less recources then gnome and should urn faster on older machines,  but you have enough machine t run ubuntu if you which to
[01:27] <bazhang> but xubuntu is hardly lightweight
[01:27] <Y-Town> Pelo: its remote desktop connection
[01:27] <crxyem> I think I may have found a bug, Not sure if it is only a problem when compiz is running or not yet, but if I open Firefox, thunderbird won't open and vise versa. they both seem to run " run-mozilla.sh" any ideas were I should report this
[01:27] <Carenthalas> I have both Thinkpad T42 and Vaio PCG-R505JL, seems only Ubuntu LiveCD can work on the sony. The T42 has primary XP and 2nd HDD with Mandriva 2008
[01:27] <Alan_M> its lightweight as in memory usage bazhang, not in size lol.
[01:28] <Pelo> Y-Town, ic, I can't help with that maybe one fo the other,  or you might want to run the error msg in the forum 's search ,  www.ubuntuforums.org
[01:28] <bazhang> Alan_M: with all the gtk stuff not so much
[01:28] <Jack_Sparrow> Carenthalas, I do agree you have enough pc to run Ubuntu...  but your hardware is near the low end of that group
[01:28] <Y-Town> Pelo: will try that
[01:28] <Alan_M> i use xubuntu on all my stuff, but thats going offtopic so ill stop :)
[01:28] <bazhang> Carenthalas: with enough ram even ubuntu might be ok you can check thinkwiki for the T42
[01:29] <UeB> good evening: I have the following problem: I recently upgraded from feisty to gusty and after that my 2 external usb drives seem to unmount them self after a while.
[01:29] <gitpik> can any body help me with a video codec problem I'm having?
[01:29] <Pelo> crxyem, uninstall thundebird and then reinstall it , see if it gets better
[01:29] <xenthro> gitpik, specifically?
[01:29] <Pelo> gitpik, what's the issue ?
[01:29] <scarr> Anyone have any experience unbreaking nm-applet?  How would I start from scratch with that (like how do I wipe any state files etc..)
[01:29] <bazhang> http://www.thinkwiki.org/ Carenthalas
[01:29] <Alan_M> gitpik, sure if you tell us what the problem entails (is made of and erros your receiving)
[01:29] <pisecx> find /var -name "*log" -a -type f -exec cp {} logs/
[01:29] <pisecx> what's wrong with this?
[01:29] <Carenthalas> Yes, I have checked Thinkwiki before, and I am using Linux under T42 now in IRC. Just a consideration if the old sony would be a bit tough for it to run Ubuntu instad of Xubuntu.
[01:29] <Pelo> scarr, did you just try reinstlling it ?
[01:30] <bazhang> how much ram on the sony caren
[01:30] <scarr> Hmm, haven't yet, via the package manager?
[01:30] <bazhang> oops
[01:30] <Karsyth> can anyone figure this out? im getting this when i try to install steam... http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59552/
[01:30] <Jack_Sparrow> Carenthalas, YOu can always install both on the same box
[01:30] <pisecx> it says that -exec has wrong arguments
[01:30] <gitpik> well in vlc certain avi and at one mkv play with a weird color misalignment. Like a green bar across the top.
[01:30] <Carenthalas> 128MB on board + 256MB extra (max. out already).
[01:30] <Dr_willis> Carenthalas,  ive ran ubuntu on a Pent 1 - 100mhz befor. :)
[01:30] <pisecx> no, that -exec does not have arguments at all
[01:30] <Pelo> Karsyth, did you first run  winecfg ?
[01:30] <crxyem> Pelo, why do you think that would work, the install is still going to put a file run-mozilla.sh in /usr/lib/thunderbird, and the same file exists in /usr/lib/firefox
[01:30] <Karsyth> Pelo: nope
[01:30] <bazhang> Carenthalas: that should run ubuntu or xubuntu okay
[01:31] <Lycade> Jack_Sparrow, It has loaded. Thank you! Is there a place in the forums where I can thank both you and damaltor for the assistance you provided to me?
[01:31] <xenthro> gitpik, hit "a" repeatedly until it changes
[01:31] <Carenthalas> Jack_Sparrow: I know, just want the simlified the future maintainence if there is any upgrade or reinstall of XP...
[01:31] <Dr_willis> Carenthalas,  install xubuntu, and install whatever gnome bits you like.. or install the ubuntu-desktop and try them out - see if gnome is slow or not. if so - use xfce,
[01:31] <xenthro> gitpik, there is also a vlc channel
[01:31] <Pelo> crxyem, let it , see what happnes
[01:31] <Jack_Sparrow> Lycade, thank you but not needed.. we should now edit grub to make that permenant
[01:31] <UeB> it is easy to get them back i just have to press the button on the right hand side next to the home folder butten in nautilus. But this does not help the programs that depend on the data from this drives when I am away
[01:31] <damaltor> Lycade: i didnt listen, what was the problem? what did you change? congratulations"
[01:31] <frank23> xenthro: what does 'a' do in vlc?
[01:32] <Jack_Sparrow> Lycade, gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[01:32] <crxyem> alrighty if that doesn't work were would you post the bug report
[01:32] <Pelo> Karsyth, run that first and then , go ask in #winehq about installing steam , they will be able to help
[01:32] <inertial> how can i suspend from the command line
[01:32] <inertial> ?
[01:32] <Lycade> damaltor, Jack_sparrow had me edit the config to load it properly by removing splash and stuff. Now he is still helping me.
[01:32] <Carenthalas> The Ubuntu LiveCD on the old Sony is a bit slow due to slow CDROM docking....don't how fast will it run with the new 120GB HD that I just bought for it.
[01:32] <Lycade> Jack_Sparrow, ok, I'll do that.
[01:32] <Jack_Sparrow> damaltor, I wanted to thank you for helping as well..
[01:32] <Pelo> crxyem, first I recommend you ask in #firefox and in #thunderbird if anyone has a fix for it
[01:32] <gitpik> xenthro, doesn't work.
[01:32] <crxyem> good idea
[01:32] <crxyem> thx
[01:32] <Carenthalas> The simplicity setup that I preferred would be similar to my T42.
[01:32] <xenthro> gitpik, yea sorry, i confused the command with something else
[01:33] <damaltor> Lycade: great thing. note down what he says, you will be happy to have it on next installation ;)
[01:33] <gitpik> but whats the address for the vlc channel
[01:33] <damaltor> Jack_Sparrow, Lycade: no problem... this channel is great, i had a lot of helpers here when i was new to ubuntu
[01:33] <Starnestommy> gitpik: #videolan
[01:33] <Pelo> Carenthalas, is anyone actualy helping you ? please use their names in each line and don'T use the enter key for punctuation
[01:33] <Lycade> Jack_Sparrow, I see a blank screen.
[01:33] <Carenthalas> Primary HDD with XP and MBR untouch, 2nd HDD loaded with linux + GRUB (for choosing linux or XP). In case, I have future upgrade , or reformat, re-install OS. It will be much simple.
[01:33] <gitpik> I figured it had something to do with ubuntu cause the files work correctly in xp on vlc
[01:33] <Jack_Sparrow> damaltor, We try
[01:33] <xenthro> gitpik, irc.videolan.org/videolan
[01:34] <gitpik> Starnestommy, tyvm :)
[01:34] <Jack_Sparrow> Lycade, gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst      that is LST  if that helps
[01:34] <Lycade> Jack_Sparrow, figures. I'll correct it.
[01:34] <Carenthalas> Pelo: Oh, sorry, how should I do it?
[01:34] <Lycade> Jack_Sparrow, it has loaded.
[01:34] <Jack_Sparrow> Lycade, YOu can add shift to ctrl-c or v to paste into a terminal
[01:35] <gitpik> and Xenthro too :)
[01:35] <Jack_Sparrow> Lycade, NOw you will make the same edit on that page that you did manually earlier
[01:35] <mosibfu> anyone knows if there is a hardy specific channel?
[01:35] <Pelo> Carenthalas, right now you are just makeing statements and no one knows what you are talkinga bout,  if you have aproblem state it and wait for someone to answer back , if they don't be patient and ask again periocicaly,  ask in one line  don'T stretch it out, this is a busy channel and it makes it difficult to follow
[01:35] <Starnestommy> mosibfu: #ubuntu+1
[01:35] <Jack_Sparrow> Ubuntu+1
[01:35] <damaltor> Jack_Sparrow: .... i searched for a way to paste ito a terminal for AGES. always used middle mouse key... THX.
[01:35] <Lycade> Jack_Sparrow, To the same area as before? I located it already.
[01:36] <mosibfu> tyvm Starnestommy and Jack_Sparrow
[01:36] <Jack_Sparrow> Lycade, Yep
[01:36] <inertial> :q
[01:36] <Carenthalas> Pelo: Thanks, :-P
[01:36] <Lycade> Jack_Sparrow, I will assume that now I would need to save?
[01:36] <Jack_Sparrow> Lycade, YEs
[01:37] <sFEARs> How do i save a downloaded ndiswrapper package so that i can reinstall it while i'm not connected to the internet
[01:37] <Lycade> Jack_Sparrow, Thank you. ^^; All I had to do was add noapic apm=on to the end of the current kernel line. :D Now I can get down to playing with Ubuntu. Thank you again for all of your help.
[01:37] <Pelo> sFEARs, it's on the live cd ,
[01:37] <Jack_Sparrow> Lycade, I have another favor to ask..   Paste this command into a terminal .. it will give you back a link.. so that I may verify your work..   sudo apt-get install pastebinit  && cat /boot/grub/menu.lst | pastebinit
[01:37] <sFEARs> say it's a package not on the live cd
[01:38] <adamhadani> hellos
[01:38] <adamhadani> =]
[01:38] <Jack_Sparrow> sFEARs, see if it is in /var/cache/apt/archives
[01:38] <sFEARs> will look
[01:38] <Lycade> Jack_Sparrow, "Couldn't find package pastebinit"
[01:38] <ConstyXIV> how do you disable the extension version check in firefox?
[01:39]  * Pelo knows that ndiswrapper is on the dvd , can't be totaly sure about the cd but has a suspicon
[01:39] <FFEMTcJ> does anyone have any experience with using a Cingular/AT&T Wireless internet card on ubuntu?
[01:39] <Mookie> I try to play DVD using Totem. I already have GStreamer and followed the instructions to install libdvdcss2. But it will won't play a disc. Can anyone help me debug what is missing?
[01:39] <Jack_Sparrow> Lycade, not a problem...  One of the first things you will want to do is enable the extra repos..   system...admin...software sources.. enable everything.. disable the cdrom as a source
[01:39] <sFEARs> ok.. there's a bunch of files in there.. so if i save that dir with all the deb files in it.. do i have to double click on every one of those files... or is there more of an automatic way to do it?
[01:40] <Pelo> Mookie, totem won'T play dvds,  you need ogm or something, xine will play dvds nicely enough
[01:40] <sFEARs> isn't there a way to export packages & dependecies?
[01:40] <Jack_Sparrow> sFEARs, just look for the ndis/... that you wanted..
[01:40] <manatatas> how do i get 3gp files to have sound?
[01:40] <Lycade> Jack_Sparrow, is there a link I could read up on tutorials for how do do all of that?
[01:40] <Mookie> Pelo: Okay.
[01:40] <Pelo> later folks
[01:40] <lydgate> is there an easy way to get a newer git than what's in the repos in ubuntu? doesn't seem to be in backports
[01:40] <lydgate> or should i just compile it?
[01:40] <Jack_Sparrow> !training
[01:40] <ubotu> A desktop course manual for Ubuntu 7.10 can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Training
[01:40] <sFEARs> if i just copy that onto a new install it won't work becuase the dependencies arn't resolved?
[01:40] <Lycade> Jack_Sparrow, Thank you once more.
[01:40] <Jordan_U> !clone | sFEARs like this ?
[01:40] <ubotu> sFEARs like this ?: 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 !automate
[01:40] <Jack_Sparrow> Lycade, there is also a wiki link let me look
[01:41] <sFEARs> yup.. that's the one.. thanks Jordan_U
[01:41] <robby_> hay
[01:41] <Jordan_U> lydgate, How about from git ;)
[01:41] <Jack_Sparrow> Pelo.. do you have the wiki guide link handy
[01:41] <robby_> can i ask a question
[01:41] <Starnestommy> robby_: go ahead
[01:41] <manatatas> how do i get 3gp files to have sound?
[01:41] <bazhang> robby_: sure
[01:41] <Jordan_U> !ask | robby_
[01:41] <ubotu> robby_: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-)
[01:41] <lydgate> Jordan_U: yeah, is that the best way?
[01:41] <robby_> im using wine
[01:41] <robby_> to play a game
[01:41] <robby_> the game conects to the internet to update
[01:42] <bazhang> is there a question in there robby_?
[01:42] <robby_> then my folder browser asks where to install the update
[01:42] <robby_> sence wine is a hiden folder

[01:42] <robby_> and the folder

[01:42] <FloodBot3> !netsplit
[01:42] <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
[01:42] <bazhang> sweet

[01:44] <Jordan_U> robby_, You can, ask in #wine-hq
[01:44] <Jack_Sparrow> Lycade, write this down..   sudo nano /boot/grub/menu.lst        if your edit was wrong, go to recovery mode and use that to correct the problem
[01:44] <robby_> LOL 25mb isnt shit XD
[01:44] <Starnestommy> robby_: you could try making the wine folder point to .wine
[01:44] <robby_> wait till it hts a gig
[01:44] <Lycade> Jack_Sparrow, Thank you.
[01:44] <Jack_Sparrow> np.. have fun...

[01:51] <CrackerVILLE> http://www.mininova.org/get/1240267

[01:51] <scall> I am having such a hard time getting my domain name to forward to the proper folder. I have created the necessary config files in sites-available and sites-enabled and restarted apache but my domain name still points to the www folder instead of www/mydomainname/. Any suggestions?

[01:52] <jerbear> ~/.zprofile does not get sourced with gdm, only ~/.profile... can anyone confirm this?
[01:52] <Jack_Sparrow> !debian
[01:52] <ubotu> Ubuntu and Debian are closely related. Ubuntu builds on the foundations of Debian architecture and infrastructure, with a different community and release process. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/relationship - Remember, !repositories meant for Debian should NOT be used on Ubuntu!
[01:52] <smatt> scall: sounds like apache isn't configured to point to the folder you want it to
[01:52] <smatt> not a domain prob
[01:52] <lydgate> yeah, but i'm not using a repo, i'm using a .deb
[01:52] <Megaqwerty> Does anyone know how to redirect a graphical application to the standard X? I'm trying to redirect a zenity box to the regular display on the computer, as opposed to it being forwarded to my display on the ssh client.
[01:53] <Jack_Sparrow> lydgate, where did you get the deb?
[01:53] <scall> smatt: Yeah, I think so. Any suggestions?
[01:53] <smatt> scall: have you checked httpd.conf?
[01:53] <lydgate> Jack_Sparrow: debian backports. but git isn't like a system critical thing
[01:53] <CrackerVILLE> http://www.mininova.org/get/1240267
[01:53] <linoss> anyone of a software application that records a phone conversation utilizing the internal modem on a PC?  thanks in advance
[01:53] <scall> No. The tutorials don't mention that.
[01:53] <smatt> scall: screw tutorials. :)
[01:53] <Jack_Sparrow> lydgate, debian backport is a debian repo.
[01:54] <lydgate> Jack_Sparrow: yeah. but explain to me how a git package could screw anything up
[01:54] <scall> smatt: Well, the beginners like me need a little direction.
[01:54] <xDx> .
[01:54] <scall> smatt: http.conf is blank.
[01:54] <smatt> scall: httpd.conf should be located in /etc, or somewhere around there..
[01:54] <boykillsworld> anyone know anything about power management settings trying to set up ubuntu to hibernate and wake up according schedule
[01:54] <scall> smatt: /etc/apache2
[01:54] <Jack_Sparrow> lydgate, Just thought you should know..  I dont intend to debate every package and the differences.. but if it is not in our repos there is likely a reason for it
[01:55] <smatt> scall: yup... that might be the prob then

[01:55] <xDx> why does DCC send
[01:56] <VonGuard> it's ubuntu related

[02:00] <fdsjkalf> how would i go about changing dns settings in ubuntu
[02:00] <smatt> Gnea: yeah i just explained everything a sec ago
[02:00] <Jack_Sparrow> lydgate, Please discontinue the discussion and opinions or take it to offtopic

[02:00] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). 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 !MP3
[02:01] <Gnea> smatt: please check the URLs that ubotu just spit out
[02:01] <smatt> bazhang: well, because it's flash that' should be playing the sound in firefox right?
[02:01] <wimpies> sz90 ; yes ?
[02:01] <niko_> i was wondering whether virtual box or wining games would be faster
[02:01] <Pelo> ltcabral, sudo apt-get install gtk2-engines-xfce
[02:01] <Gnea> smatt: if the system itself can't play sounds, then none of the apps will.
[02:01] <techqbert> anybody have a data evolution dectop here?
[02:02] <bazhang> smatt: sounds like a different issue; when did sound stop working? what did you do or add to your system
[02:02] <Gnea> smatt: cat /dev/urandom > /dev/dsp    if it sounds like static, then perhaps the site is a flash without sound
[02:02] <kes0> !sound
[02:02] <smatt> Gnea: the system plays the test tones fine

[02:03] <fdsjkalf> how do i reset my DNS??
[02:03] <Pelo> ltcabral, actualy I'M an idiot,  this has noting to do with fluxbox,  try jsut gtk2-engines  that might work
[02:04] <Gnea> smatt: oh, didn't see a direction or a direct answer to the direct question.
[02:04] <smatt> Gnea: but to answer your question, i'm using sites like youtube for testing
[02:04] <Gnea> niko_: it depends on the game. wine/cedega work pretty well.
[02:04] <smatt> Gnea: the system test sounds work properly
[02:04] <bazhang> smatt indeed try to follow what Gnea is asking instead of just posting your original long question
[02:04] <fdsjkalf> whats with all the ban removal?
[02:05] <niko_> i shall use that then. thank you
[02:05] <Gnea> smatt: but that wasn't my question. you assumed incorrectly. i can see why you haven't solved the problem yet. are you familiar with the lsof command?
[02:05] <bazhang> fdsjkalf: from the netsplit
[02:05] <wimpies> sz90 : i do not think it is a mapping problem.  I ran xine in verbose mode and notice propper 'skip' efforts (i.e. the keypress does what it is supposed to but the frames do not move)
[02:05] <cryonix> hey guys i have the java_ee_sdk-5_04-linux.bin how do i install it?

[02:05] <musashi> i have 3 HDs and each has a swap space. i want to make the primary swap file on a disk other than the one i'm using. is editing the /etc/fstab and adding pri=5 or something the best way or is something else better? what should the priorities be for the 3 drives?
[02:06] <fdsjkalf> my internet is freaking killing me
[02:06] <Gnea> smatt: sounds good, it's pretty cool
[02:06] <fdsjkalf> ill br back
[02:06] <scall> genii: I can't find anything in apache2.conf that needs to be changed. Can you point me in the right direction?
[02:06] <smatt> Gnea: list processes of the app right?
[02:06] <smatt> Gnea: want me to check processes of firefox?
[02:06] <Gnea> smatt: negative.
[02:06] <sz90> wimpies, are all the proper decoders installed?
 genii: I can't find anything in apache2.conf that needs to be changed. Can you point me in the right direction?
[02:07] <Gnea> smatt: type this in a terminal:  man lsof
[02:07] <genii> scall: Please say again what it is you wish to configure/do, I missed it previously
[02:07] <smatt> reading the man now
[02:07] <Gnea> ...
[02:07] <wimpies> sz90 : yes I think so, the movie does all else perfectly (speed up slow down skip more than 7 seconds, go back etc)
[02:07]  * genii slides cryonix a coffee
[02:08] <smatt> Gnea: list files open... but i'm not sure where you're going with ti
[02:08] <scall> genii: I want to set up virtual hosts. My domain name resolves to the IP Address of my server but in the browser I just get /var/www instead of /var/www/mydomainname.
[02:09] <scall> genii: I have created the necessary config files in sites-available and sites-enabled but it is not working still.
[02:09] <sz90> what type of movie file is it?
[02:09] <genii> scall: Did you reload/restart apache2 ?
[02:09] <scall> Yes.
[02:09] <Gnea> smatt: it really helps to have a basic knowledge of how the system works. lsof lists open files, not files open (there's a difference.) and how they're linked to each other beyond just a normal process list, in greater detail, with things that you never knew existed.  anyway, if you type this command:  lsof | grep libasound
[02:10] <scall> genii: Yes and there were no errors.
[02:10] <Gnea> smatt: it will show you all of the processes that are running that have some sort of access to the soundcard currently.  btw, is that a half-duplex or full-duplex soundcard?
[02:10] <genii> scall: I don't understand what you mean by seeing /var/www in the browser. If you point a web browser to the ip/name you should see all BELOW that directory
[02:10] <smatt> Gnea: only an output i believe, it's a usb soundcard
[02:11] <smatt> there are no inputs
[02:11] <cryonix> most of the time my ubuntu freezes. could that be due to the o/s itself? or is it my computer?
[02:11] <Gnea> smatt: half-duplex means that only 1 application can use the soundcard at a time, full-duplex means that multiple applications can pump sound out of your speakers simultaneously. it has nothing to do with the jacks on the card.
[02:12] <Jack_Sparrow> cryonix, could be the configureation or your hardware or combination..
[02:12] <goose> if someone gave me some perl code for an IRC bot, how do I compile it?
[02:12] <scall> genii: Yes but I am trying to set it up so that domainone.com goes to one folder and domaintwo.com goes to another. They all go to /var/www instead of them each going to /var/www/domainone and /var/www/domaintwo
[02:12] <Gnea> goose: it should say in the README or INSTALL file
[02:12] <sz90> wimpies, have you tired using a different program?
[02:12] <smatt> Gnea: oh, in that case it's full. opensuse let me play multiple things at once
[02:12] <Jack_Sparrow> cryonix, how fresh is the install.. has it been upgraded, is it a laptop or desktop, what video card and how was the driver installed
[02:12] <genii> scall: If you have an alias/virtual host entry in 000-default for example, there will not be a directory which is named /var/www/virtualname unless the alias/virtualhost dir is ALSO in /var/www
[02:12] <goose> Gnea, all I have is the bare code. I just need to know how to turn the code into the bot.
[02:12] <Pelo> goose, you don'T compile it , you  put it in the ~/.xchat floder and open in from xchat
[02:13] <goose> pelo, thanks
[02:13] <goose> again
[02:13] <smatt> Gnea: i have the output of the lsof command, shall i pastebin for you?
[02:13] <goose> pelo, is there a specific file format I need to save it as in gedit?
[02:13] <cryonix> Jack_Sparrow: freshly installed
[02:13] <cryonix> okay i have another problem
[02:13] <Jack_Sparrow> and?
[02:13] <Gnea> smatt: there's another issue with that, though - if opensuse is using a software mixer of some kind to emulate that on a half-duplex card, you might be fooled into thinking that it's full-duplex. do you have some sort of mp3 player on your desktop?
[02:13] <Pelo> goose,  don't think so , it's been a while, let em have a look
[02:13] <scall> genii: I am trying so hard to understand that sentence but it went over my head.
[02:13] <cryonix> when i create a user in the 'user & accounts manager' and when i try to connect to my computer via Putty. it says Authorization Failure
[02:14] <cryonix> but im sure i've spelt the user/pass correctly
[02:14] <leo_rockw> hello everyone
[02:14] <smatt> Gnea: it's a fresh install, i should! just a sec.
[02:14] <bazhang> cryonix: could you give fuller info please?
[02:14] <Gnea> smatt: ok
[02:14] <Pelo> goose,  .pl I beleive,   and it's the  ~/.xchat2 folder
[02:14] <steph_> Can someone tell me how to get the same kind of menu in 7.10 like the one in 8.04?
[02:14] <jgonick> newbie question,  What do you do if a program locks down (freezes) while on the gnome desktop?
[02:14] <wimpies> sz90 : it is a xine specific problem.  of course not all programs have the same features but skipping generally works (vlc, kmplayer )
[02:14] <leo_rockw> i'm using ssh and i wonder if there's any way to view images (png, jpeg) i tried zgv and fbi but neither works.
[02:15] <redheat> hi everyone
[02:15] <leo_rockw> hey redheat
[02:15] <Pelo> steph_, what kind of menu aer you talking about ?
[02:15] <ShakQ> hey redheat
[02:15] <redheat> sorry for bothering you all but I need some urgent help round here
[02:15] <redheat> of course, I hope you all in best of health
[02:15] <cryonix> bazhang: i went to system -> administration -> User & Groups. and I've added an account. but when i try to connect to that account via Putty (My Windows Box) it says Authorization Failure
[02:15] <Gnea> jgonick: click on the 'x' a few times until a window pops up asking if you want to 'force quit' the app or not
[02:15] <kiado> hey
[02:15] <Jack_Sparrow> steph_, Since we are running 7.10 most of us do not know what that menu looks like.  Perhaps you should ask in #Ubuntu+1 about how to add hardy menu to 7.10
[02:15] <redheat> I have a Creative X-Fi Platinum Sound Card, and I was wondering if there's a 32 Linux Driver for it
[02:15] <redheat> ?
[02:15] <[TX]Strongbow> cryonix: did you give the account a password?
[02:16] <sz90> wimpies: do you have another program that uses xine's engine (like totem) to check if its the xine program or the engine?
[02:16] <Pelo> redheat, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[02:16] <jgonick> Gnea:  Thanks..
[02:16] <cryonix> [TX]Strongbow: i'm sure i did
[02:16] <genii> scall: What did you put for DocumentRoot    when you made alterations to the 000-default or apache2.conf file?
[02:16] <goose> Pelo, where is the xchat folder?
[02:16] <Pelo> goose  /home/username/.xchat2
[02:16] <Gnea> leo_rockw: it won't do it remotely, zgv and fbi are reserved for the *actual* console of the system itself. there is no app that will do it remotely... you can use scp to copy the images to your system and use zgv locally
[02:16] <Pelo> goose, that,s assuming you are using xchat for an irc client
[02:17] <steph_> Pelo: in 8.04, there is only the application menu (I think it is name that way) while there is Application/Shortcuts/System in 7.1.
[02:17] <Gnea> leo_rockw: if it's a website or ftp site, you could use feh to do remote viewing locally
[02:17] <foxray> ubuntu was cool but i think i might go back to fedora, these nvidia drivers lock up my computer at random intervals
[02:17] <Pelo> steph_, right click the pannel ,  select add to pannel  , from the list select main menu I beleive ,
[02:17] <goose> pelo, I use xchat, but it's not there. I used apt-get to install it
[02:17] <bazhang> cryonix: ah sorry I meant answering Jack_Sparrow's original question in full--what card how driver was installed etc
[02:17] <leo_rockw> Gnea: i thought feh needed X
[02:18] <Gnea> leo_rockw: it does. didn't know if you had X or not.
[02:18] <leo_rockw> Gnea: i'm using dslinux, no X and no extra apps (ie, zgv).
[02:18] <steph_> Pelo: you're right. thanks
[02:18] <Pelo> goose, you do know that   a . before the name means it is hidden right ?  hit crtl_h do dislply hidden files
[02:18] <Strongbow[TX]> cronix: and a valid shell?
[02:18] <leo_rockw> Gnea: i connect with ssh to my laptop. no biggie, just wanted to know if there was a way. thank you.
[02:18] <goose> pelo, I feel like an idiot right now
[02:19] <redheat> Pelo, unfortunately, they don't have one for the X-Fi card, those geniuses over at Creative won't release the source code for their new cards
[02:19] <Pelo> goose, you should
[02:19] <Jack_Sparrow> :)
[02:19] <redheat> anyhow..thank you so much for your help guys..
[02:19] <cryonix> strong what do mean by a valid shell?
[02:19] <bazhang> haha
[02:19] <redheat> Hey Jack Sparrow, how are you my friend, hope you're doing well
[02:19] <Jack_Sparrow> redheat, Much better thanks
[02:19] <Pelo> redheat, you might also look up your model in the forum see if anyone else had issues and a solution  www.ubuntuforums.org
[02:19] <Gnea> leo_rockw: i have no idea if zgv works on the DS or not - all i know is that, for the console with zgv, the files need to be local, that's it. :)
[02:20] <Strongbow[TX]> The user has to have a shell. It has to be one listed in /etc/shells. If you used the gui tool, then one of the dropdowns / form fields would be for the shell...
[02:20] <scall> genii: I searched for DocumentRoot in apache2.conf and found nothing.
[02:20] <redheat> ok I wll, thank you so much Pelo, truly appreciate your help my friend..
[02:20] <cryonix> i see
[02:20] <redheat> I'll go there now.. thank you all, take care and have a nice day
[02:20] <goose> pelo, don't worry about it. :D I saved it to the xchat dir, do I need to restart xchat? and how do I load the bot?
[02:20] <Strongbow[TX]> it will only list valid shells and probably defaulted to Bash, but it's worth checking
[02:20] <cryonix> it says /bin/bash
[02:20] <adorablepuppy> Is there an alternative to gdesklets?
[02:20] <qcjn> Hi, i've installed a hard disk with a pci serail ata host card. Ubuntu dosn't see it ??
[02:20] <Strongbow[TX]> Open a terminal window and do "finger user" where "user" is the user you added.
[02:21] <Strongbow[TX]> Look for "Shell:"
[02:21] <cryonix> ok let me try
[02:21] <leo_rockw> Gnea: with dslinux you can only use the apps that come by default (which is the basics... it's only like a 3mb image). thanks for your help. i just wanted to know if there was a way to do it, now that i know there isn't i won't keep trying lol
[02:21] <Pelo> goose, no need to restart xchat, look in hte xchat menu , in windows,  script and plugins
[02:21] <oboy03> what is LTS in layman's term?
[02:21] <cryonix> Shell: bin/bash
[02:21] <Jack_Sparrow> qcjn, that card most likely requires special drivers.. even in windows that we dont have in ubuntu
[02:21] <leo_rockw> oboy03: long term service
[02:21] <Jordan_U> leo_rockw, You can install other apps with DSL
[02:21] <Strongbow[TX]> oboy03: "Long Term Support". Support for 3 years for desktop versions, 5 for server versions.
[02:21] <leo_rockw> Jordan_U: oh really? how so?
[02:22] <Jack_Sparrow> !eol
[02:22] <ubotu> End-Of-Life is the time when security updates for an Ubuntu release stop. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Website/LifeCycle
[02:22] <Strongbow[TX]> cryonix: "bin/bash" or "/bin/bash"?
[02:22] <Jordan_U> leo_rockw, apt-get
[02:22] <qcjn> Jack_Sparrow: so you think it won't work with that card ?
[02:22] <leo_rockw> Jordan_U: i read the wiki, and didn't find anything about that.
[02:22] <cryonix> it says Shell: /bin/bash
[02:22] <genii> scall: Perhaps take a look at the virtual host entry the person here made, it's the 7th greyish panel down the page, and compare it with whatever you put:  http://www.mjmwired.net/resources/mjm-apache-virtual-sites.html
[02:22] <leo_rockw> Jordan_U: oh, it's not damn small linux, it's ds linux (for the nintendo DS)
[02:22] <Jack_Sparrow> qcjn, I have my doubts.. did it come with a driver for windows?
[02:22] <Strongbow[TX]> cryonix: OK, unless you've done somethign weird, the user has a valid shell.
[02:23] <Jordan_U> leo_rockw, Oh :)
[02:23] <cryonix> leo_rockw: nintendo DS linux? NICE
[02:23] <oboy03> what would happen if the support to one ubuntu version expirse?
[02:23] <cryonix> strongbow; i'm trying to login via Putty. it says Access Denied
[02:23] <qcjn> Jack_Sparrow: yes
[02:23] <leo_rockw> cryonix: yup... i can use irssi, finch, links2... all with ssh, pretty cool huh?
[02:23] <cryonix> lleo_rockw thats crazy
[02:23] <genii> scall: Adjust directories accordingly, of course
[02:23] <goose> pelo, does xchat already have the perl extensions? I got 'Unknown file type /home/goose/.xchat2/RokerBot. Maybe you need to install the Perl or Python plugin? Usage: LOAD [-e] <file>, loads a plugin or script'
[02:24] <xb3rt> Can someone help me setup my wireless on ubuntu 7.10 gutsy
[02:24] <Strongbow[TX]> cryonix: next thing to check is the home directory. Does it exist? Look for "Directory:" in the output above and see if you can do "cd directory" (replacing directory with what it says in the finger output)
[02:24] <Jordan_U> cryonix, Do you have openssh-server installed?
[02:24] <leo_rockw> cryonix: yes, crazy, but awesome.
[02:24] <EDinNY> what deb contains Acrobat Reader?
[02:24] <Gnea> EDinNY: it's part of the medibuntu archive
[02:24] <Jack_Sparrow> qcjn, It seems unlike;y to me that it will work if it is not autodetected
[02:24] <Gnea> !medibuntu | EDinNY
[02:24] <ubotu> EDinNY: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org
[02:24] <Strongbow[TX]> loe_rockw: that's a good question actually.
[02:24] <cryonix> Jordan_U: no i dont
[02:24] <EDinNY> Gnea: do you know the name of the deb?
[02:25] <Pelo> goose, it's been a while,  but I don'T think I needed to install any specific extension to run perl scripts in xchat ,not on linux anyway,  let me see what perl packages I have installed and make you a short list
[02:25] <qcjn> Jack_Sparrow: well i had the same problem wiht an ide hrad drive
[02:25] <smatt> Gnea: I'm getting the following errors when I run firefox in the console and watch output:
[02:25] <smatt> ALSA lib conf.c:3982:(snd_config_expand) Evaluate error: No such device
[02:25] <smatt> ALSA lib pcm.c:2144:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM default
[02:25] <smatt> ALSA lib pcm_hw.c:1351:(_snd_pcm_hw_open) Invalid value for card
[02:25] <bazhang> xb3rt: cli or gui?
[02:25] <Jack_Sparrow> qcjn, Is that with an onboard ide controller.. what mb?
[02:25] <xb3rt> Chat check, 1.....2.....3................
[02:25] <sz90> wimpies, any luck with another program with the xine engine?
[02:25] <cryonix> Jordan_U: but i can connect to the box via Putty.. but it just says Access Denied when i try to login
[02:26] <xb3rt> bazhang: gui, wifi-radar preferable
[02:26] <Gnea> EDinNY: well if you add it and then do a search for acroread with apt-cache, it should show up
[02:26] <qcjn> yes onboard...what is mb?
[02:26] <xb3rt> bazhang: although either will work
[02:26] <bazhang> xb3rt: here is a great guide though cli http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=571188
[02:26] <Jack_Sparrow> qcjn, mb = motherboard make and model?
[02:26] <Strongbow[TX]> cryonix: have you looked at your logs to see what it says? Have a look at /var/log/messages and /var/log/secure
[02:26] <xb3rt> bazhang: what do you do it with
[02:26] <bazhang> xb3rt: take a look and come back with questions ;]
[02:26] <Pelo> goose, what is this script for anyway ? were you made an op to ?
[02:26] <bazhang> xb3rt: cli
[02:27] <qcjn> Jack_Sparrow: I don't know ?
[02:27] <smatt> Gnea: it just scrolls over and over those 3 things
[02:27] <Gnea> smatt: anything more than 1 line should really be pastebin'd
[02:27] <xb3rt> bazhang: does it scan the area
[02:27] <crshman> hi all, my box spits out "Disabling IRQ #7" every now and then, from the boot i see that IRQ#7 belongs to a sata card in my system....when it disables IRQ#7 the drives connected to it go down
[02:27] <Jack_Sparrow> qcjn, did the livecd boot to a desktop?
[02:27] <Jordan_U> cryonix, You need openssh-server to connect via ssh, I don't know what putty is reporting as a 'connection' "sudo apt-get install openssh-server"
[02:27] <crshman> any idea's why the system is doing this?
[02:27] <goose> Pelo, it's for a bot that gives the weather to any city when you ask for it
[02:27] <cryonix> jordan_u let me try
[02:27] <qcjn> what live cd ?
[02:28] <Jack_Sparrow> qcjn, The ubuntu disk you were using to install the os
[02:28] <Gnea> cryonix: your system sounds screwy - IRQ7 is usually parallel. could be a bad SATA cable though
[02:28] <cryonix> if i still openssh-server. would i be more vulnerable of attacks/
[02:28] <bazhang> qcjn: how did you install ubuntu?
[02:28] <cryonix> Gnea: it is a bit screwy
[02:28] <Strongbow[TX]> cryonix: only slightly. The bigger danger is using weak passwords.
[02:28] <Jack_Sparrow> Gnea, agreed irq 7 is usually lpt1
[02:28] <Gnea> cryonix: do you have any other sata cables to test with? only time i've seen that is when there's a problem with it
[02:29] <Pelo> goose, I'm gonna dcc send you a perl script a freind made for me (I don't code) you can load it to see if it works and you can also check your own script against it  , how is that ?
[02:29] <cryonix> Gnea: i dont run any SATA cables :(
[02:29] <Gnea> Jack_Sparrow: nod
[02:29] <cryonix> okay guys i've installed openssh-server
[02:29] <one_matthias> hi everybody, anyone have bluetooth experiance ...
[02:29] <qcjn> from a cd , and installed it directly. I've installed 6.02 and upgraded up to 7.10
[02:29] <goose> Pelo, I don't code either, someone gave me this script, but I'll take anything I can get
[02:29] <Gnea> cryonix: but you just said you've got a SATA card in the system. are you using IDE drives?
[02:30] <cryonix> Gnea: i'm using IDE drives
[02:30] <Strongbow[TX]> Gnea: I think you have him confused with someone else. cryonix is talking about an ssh issue.
[02:30] <Gnea> cryonix: then why is the SATA chip turned on?
[02:30] <Jack_Sparrow> qcjn, Ok.. we call those live cd's as you can boot up and test drive them.  Why do you say it had a problem with your ide
[02:30] <cryonix> Jordan_U: ive installed openssh-server
[02:30] <Gnea> er
[02:30] <cryonix> Gnea: where did u see SATA?
[02:30] <cryonix> lol
[02:30] <smatt> to hell with it, i'm going back to opensuse. thanks for (trying to) help Gnea
[02:30] <Pelo> goose, that script is to block ppl from pm ing you with /msg , let me know whjen you loaded it I'll give it a try
[02:30] <hitme666> any1 ever used a jetway MiniQ Twin + his Remote with ubuntu / linux ?
[02:30] <Gnea> crshman: sorry
[02:30] <Jack_Sparrow> crshman,   Gnea
[02:30] <goose> pelo, I loaded it
[02:30] <Gnea> cryonix: sorry about that :(
[02:30] <Gnea> *headdesk*
[02:31] <cryonix> Gnea: no prob :P
[02:31] <Jordan_U> cryonix, Is putty working now?
[02:31] <goose> Pelo, it worked
[02:31] <Gnea> crshman: uhm, did you catch all of that? :)
[02:31] <cryonix> Jordan_U: putty can connect to my computer via SSH. but when i put the login details ive added. it says Access Denied
[02:31] <Pelo> goose,  so that is working,  there must be a problem with your other script
[02:31] <xb3rt> how do i print a command to a txt file
[02:31] <qcjn> because i installed an ide before..When i installed it, Ubuntu didn't see it
[02:31] <Strongbow[TX]> cryonix: did you check the home directory for the user exists?
[02:31] <goose> how do I deactive it?
[02:31] <Jack_Sparrow> Gnea, disable lpt1 in the bios for testing, leave it that way if he isnt using parallel printer
[02:32] <Strongbow[TX]> xb3rt: "command > filename.txt"
[02:32] <goose> Pelo, how do I deactivate the script so people can PM me again?
[02:32] <cryonix> Strongbow[TX]: i can see the user folder there in /home/
[02:32] <crshman> ok got that
[02:32] <Strongbow[TX]> cryonix: ok, next, did you look at /var/log/messages and /var/log/secure?
[02:32] <Pelo> goose,  use the same menu you used to load the script to unload it
[02:32] <crshman> irq7 is parallel, but i disabled it in bios because i don't use it
[02:32] <xb3rt> Strongbow[TX]: does that just put the .txt into the working directory
[02:32] <cryonix> strongbow let me have a look
[02:32] <Gopher99> xb3rt, yes
[02:32] <Jack_Sparrow> qcjn, Ok..  but when did it not see it.. did you get to a gui desktop and the installer failed?
[02:33] <Strongbow[TX]> xb3rt: it dumps whatever would have gone to the screen in the given file instead...
[02:33] <Gnea> crshman: how many SATA drives do you have hooked up?
[02:33] <goose> Pelo, XChat > Load Plugin Or Script
[02:33] <Pelo> goose, yes
[02:33] <Gopher99> xb3rt, if you want to put it somewhere, just list that explicit directory, like  (command) > /home/username/blah.txt
[02:33] <crshman> 4 onboard and 3 on the card
[02:33] <goose> Pelo, it doesn't give me an option to unload it
[02:33] <tengulre> which package contain dot command?
[02:33] <Pelo> goose,  no actualy ,  windows > pluggin and script
[02:33] <Jack_Sparrow> crshman, I hope you verified you have enough power supply to run all of those
[02:34] <crshman> i do, it's a 700W
[02:34] <Jack_Sparrow> just checking
[02:34] <Gnea> crshman: sounds like one of the SATA cables on the card could be bad. do you have any spares?
[02:34] <Strongbow[TX]> tengulre: what do you mean "dot command"?
[02:34] <one_matthias> anyone with ati mobility radeon  installed in ubuntu ...
[02:34] <crshman> yeah i do, sata cable eh....never had one of those go bad...
[02:34] <crshman> didn't know they could =)
[02:34] <xb3rt> Gopher99: thank you
[02:34] <Gopher99> anytime meng
[02:34] <Jack_Sparrow> bbl, I need to go eat dinner
[02:34] <cryonix> Jordan_U: i've checked var/logs/messages. what am i suppose to be looking for?
[02:34] <qcjn> Jack_Sparrow: first it was a used hd ide... so i ve tried to put it in ext3 with qparted and then with gparted, but it didn't see it ?
[02:34] <goose> Pelo, thanks. Any idea where I can get some advice on programming a bot?
[02:34] <Strongbow[TX]> one_matthias: I had one in my work laptop. It worked great. Don't work at that job anymore though.
[02:35] <Gnea> crshman: heh, i have. it SUCKED! :) try switching the drives out one by one and see if it occurs again, if you can
[02:35] <cryonix> goose: eggheads.org
[02:35] <Pelo> goose, techincaly those aren'T bots, they're just scripts ,  but you can always try and ask in #xchat
[02:35] <Jack_Sparrow> qcjn, gparted livecd or gparted from the ubuntu livecd
[02:35] <crshman> well i only have 1 drive running on it right now
[02:35] <Strongbow[TX]> cryonix: that was me actually. Anyway, look for anything about that user. More likely the message you want is going to be in /var/log/secure though.
[02:35] <arrrghhh> is there any way to vnc into a computer that's at the login screen?  i can ssh in, but x11vnc says it can't find a suitable display.
[02:35] <crshman> and i've tested all 3 individually and it still shuts off
[02:35] <Gnea> all 3 drives or all 3 cables?
[02:35] <crshman> drives
[02:36] <crshman> but i'll try the cable
[02:36] <Xcerca> is there any way to keep the same resolution but change the display "size" maybe,  the panels are going way off the edge of my monitor,   is anyone familiar with xrandr ?
[02:36] <Strongbow[TX]> arrrghh: make sure you have DISPLAY environment variable set, and it's valid.
[02:36] <cryonix> Strongbow[TX]: i dont have /var/log/secure but i've got /var/logs/messages
[02:36] <qcjn> Jack_Sparrow: not from a live cd..I've installed it apt-get...?
[02:36] <Gnea> crshman: if it's not the cables, it could be the way that linux is routing the IRQs.... have you tried pci=routeirq at boot?
[02:36] <arrrghhh> Strongbow[TX], can you explain that more in-depth?  i didn't do anything to configure x11vnc, it just worked...
[02:36] <orion2012> what's a glob that matches all hidden files that doesn't include '.' and '..'?
[02:36] <Jack_Sparrow> qcjn, we have a command line modifier for the livecd called    all_generic_ide  that sometimes helps.. but I need food, so see you later
[02:37] <crshman> have not (writing all these things down though!)
[02:37] <Gnea> orion2012: *
[02:37] <Strongbow[TX]> arrrghhh: is X running on the server you're trying to connect to?
[02:37] <orion2012> Gnea: hidden files
[02:37] <qcjn> Jack_Sparrow: ok, thanks ?
[02:37] <Gnea> orion2012: .[A-Za-z0-9]*  sorry
[02:37] <arrrghhh> Strongbow[TX], normally yes, but since i rebooted it's probably just sitting at the login screen.... so i'm guessing X hasn't started yet?
[02:37] <orion2012> Gnea: Thanks, I was afraid of that
[02:37] <orion2012> Gnea: hoping it'd be something easy to type
[02:38] <Gnea> orion2012: it is :)
[02:38] <Strongbow[TX]> arrrghhh: try "service gdm restart" (or if you don't have "service" installed, "/etc/init.d/gdm restart")
[02:38] <Gnea> orion2012: just remember: ever uppercase, lowercase and number
[02:39] <Gnea> crshman: try the pci=routeirq thing first, could prevent stress :)
[02:39] <Strongbow[TX]> orion2012: is this something you need to do in a script?
[02:39] <genii> arrrghhh: See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNC the part about gdm and vnc
[02:39] <crshman> just booted like that =)

[02:40] <Frederick> folks how long should java take to build from source in a athlon64 3 gb processor 4 gb ram in average?
[02:40] <Frederick> 1 hour?
[02:40] <jimmygoon> OpenJDK?
[02:40] <arrrghhh> genii, thanks.  and Strongbow[TX] it didn't work.  i use kubuntu, so i did "sudo /etc/init.d/kdm restart" and it restarted the window manager, gave me the messages that it did but x11vnc still doesn't run.

[02:41] <ToddEDM> hey guys, im looking at getting a new PC, now im not really a newb to building, but just not uptodate ... last PC i built had a athlon 2200+ and some crappy ATI vid card..coulld someone in here help me, as im going to need to run linux on it, aswell as windows(just for Call of Duty 4)
[02:41] <Frederick> ToddEDM: linuxwill run in pretty much every system
[02:41] <ToddEDM> i think i know that i should stay away from ATI.. is this true?
[02:41] <Strongbow[TX]> ToddEDM: kind of an all-encompassing question. Do you have something specific you need help with?
[02:42] <Frederick> ToddEDM: for linux support grforce is much better imho
[02:42] <Strongbow[TX]> Frederick: Especialy Ubuntu.
[02:42] <Pelo> ToddEDM, if you donT' need any extra fancy graphics , get an asus board with all intel chipset,  saveyourself some pain
[02:43] <Frederick> Pelo: he wants games he needs at leasts a geforce 8600 :p
[02:43] <arrrghhh> genii, that's some good info that i've read thru, but the login screen stuff seems to only apply to ubuntu because they keep talking about gdm and not kdm.  will those instructions work for kde?
[02:43] <rsk> ToddEDM: cod4 has platinum rating in wine btw :)
[02:43] <cryonix> when i type: su and it asks for my password. i placed my password and it says incorrect password?
[02:43] <Pelo> Frederick, which is what I meant abotu extrafancy graphics
[02:43] <rsk> cryonix: ubuntu dosent use a root account
[02:43] <cryonix> but i am the admin of this computer. i own it
[02:43] <ToddEDM> Strongbow[TX]: i just am not sure what what components to choose, kinda lost touch with the new technologies, anything that i should look for in a mobo that might keep this system upto-date
[02:43] <cryonix> ohh
[02:43] <rsk> cryonix: use sudo instead
[02:43] <Strongbow[TX]> cryonix: "su" will ask for the root password. "sudo" asks for your password.
[02:43] <Frederick> im happy with myne 8800 gts
[02:43] <denobjob> lol
[02:43] <ToddEDM> rsk: sweet
[02:44] <cryonix> i see
[02:44] <genii> arrrghhh: The port 5901 yes, thats remote X login. the gdm.conf stuff you may need to look up kdm equivelent
[02:44] <cryonix> because when i try to install java runtime player. it says your not logged in as a root account
[02:44] <Strongbow[TX]> cryonix: sudo might not even ask. I think it doesn't on ubuntu.
[02:44] <cryonix> yeah..
[02:44] <Strongbow[TX]> cryonix: what rsk said.
[02:44] <crshman> *waits for a disabled irq message* haha
[02:44] <Genius314> I want to record video in DOSbox, but I need to press ctrl-alt-f5 to do so, which brings me to some terminal-type thing. Can I disable this shortcut in Ubuntu? It's not in the list in  System>Preferences>Keyboard Shortucts.
[02:44] <cryonix> i see
[02:44] <Gnea> ToddEDM: i've had better luck with nvidia than ati on the 3d end, a dual-core p4 3ghz or better or dual-core athlon64 should suffice
[02:44] <Jordan_U> cryonix, Don't install it that way!
[02:45] <Jordan_U> !java | cryonix
[02:45] <ubotu> cryonix: To install a Java runtime/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java6-jre from the !Multiverse repository (in !Backports for !Edgy)

[02:50] <RDProg> Hi all I am having trouble with an Ubuntu triple-boot
[02:50] <RDProg> It is Windows XP, Vista and 7.10
[02:50] <Pelo> RDProg, vista is the problme I take it ?
[02:50] <RDProg> and after Install GRUB wasn't installed so it just boots to Windows
[02:51] <TheRedBaron> RDProg: in which order did you install the Operating systems?
[02:51] <RDProg> I stalled XP, Vista, Ubuntu
[02:51] <Pelo> RDProg, get the supergrub cd and you can use it to fix stage 1 and the grub menu
[02:51] <RDProg> because in the past it has just auto-configured Grub
[02:51] <atlef> RDProg:  this can be done with the live cd
[02:51] <Lycade> Anyone know how to access logs for xchat? I need to look at some advice that was given to me before. >.>
[02:52] <Pelo> !log
[02:52] <ubotu> Channel logs can be found at http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/ - Logs for LoCo channels are at http://logs.ubuntu-eu.org/freenode/ - See also « /msg ubotu ircstats »
[02:52] <icesword> Lycade, ~/.xchat?
[02:52] <atlef> RDProg: no need for extra cd
[02:52] <RDProg> atlef, I have tried it, but cannot figure out how, any good tutorials online? or even better some sort of GUI grub editor?
[02:52] <Gopher99> Lycade, have you logged xchat in the options also/
[02:52] <Pelo> icesword,  he means the channel logs
[02:52] <Jack_Sparrow> RDProg, Windows overwrote the mbr...  very common..  ubuntu needs to be installed last or if windows was reinstalled, you need to see the page to follow
[02:52] <atlef> RDProg: 2sek
[02:52] <Jack_Sparrow> !grub
[02:52] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[02:52] <Gopher99> there's an option to do it so that you can access .txt
[02:52] <Genius314> Is it possible to change or disable the "ctrl-alt-F5" shortcut? I need those keys to record video in DOSbox... or is there a way to change the shortcut for DOSbox?
[02:52] <Lycade> Channel logs, correct.
[02:52] <RDProg> atlef - ok
[02:52] <kestir> I thought he meant the xchat logs
[02:52] <Lycade> Thanks, Pelo
[02:52] <icesword> Pelo, that he can see his own logs,much easier
[02:52] <kestir> irc is not xchat
[02:52] <RDProg> jack_sparrow, I installed xp, then vista, then 7.10
[02:53] <RDProg> I've never had this problem setting up dual boots
[02:53] <Pelo> icesword, he might not be loging the channel,, probabaly isn'T , it's not on by default
[02:53] <Jack_Sparrow> RDProg, see the link
[02:53] <icesword> Pelo, hmm

[02:59] <FFEMTcJ> Well.. I have found a couple of tutorials, none of which are with my particular card, or with ubuntu.. But they should be similar.. Basically I have followed the directions, and none of them have worked. So I wanted to see if anyone had any pointers.
[02:59] <qcjn> Jack_Sparrow: since i have an other sata hard drive with an "usb 2.0 to ide/sata adaptor kit" sa i can plug directly in an hd, so i did it, an ubuntu sees it.

[03:00] <Jack_Sparrow> qcjn, That does not surprise me..  glad you got it to see a drive
[03:00] <bazhang> FFEMTcJ: you are using a tutorial meant for a different linux distro?
[03:00] <Lord_Nightmare> anyone have any ideas for how to deal with the following: i have a failing ntfs hdd in a laptop, a usb external ntfs drive, and a xubuntu gutsy livecd
[03:00] <icesword> RDProg, paste your /boot/grub/menu.lst
[03:00] <_plague_87> i have linux Ubuntu 7.10

[03:00] <RDProg> atlef: ok, gimme a sec, reboot takes a while
[03:00] <Lord_Nightmare> normally this would work fine except for the problem with the hdd
[03:00] <one_matthias> anyone using ati mobility radeon -?
[03:00] <atlef> RDProg: i would 1. reinstall xp mbr, then vista mbr then grub
[03:01] <qcjn> Jack_Sparrow: so it looks like the problem is the card
[03:01] <nobby> hi, anyone know how to deal when apt-get throws up the following message:  Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[03:01] <Jack_Sparrow> yep
[03:01] <Lord_Nightmare> unlike most failing hdds, this drive does not hive data errors when it hits a bad sector
[03:01] <RDProg> atlef: what would suggest as the best way of going about that?
[03:01] <bazhang> FFEMTcJ: what is the exact issue please be precise; tell us what you are trying to achieve what you have done, and the exact errors you are receiving
[03:01] <Lord_Nightmare> the whole drive firmware on the drive MCU on its i/o board hangs
[03:01] <Lord_Nightmare> and when it hangs, ubuntu freezes as well
[03:01] <FFEMTcJ> I'm not recieving errors.. Just not connecting with cingular.
[03:02] <atlef> RDProg: id suggest you go searchin the forums a little, it is long and kinda complicated if you do not know what you are doing
[03:02] <Genius314> I want to disable the shortcut "Ctrl-Alt-F5," but I'm not sure where it can be changed...

[03:03] <Pelo> _plague_87, what other language do you speak ?
[03:03] <Lord_Nightmare> but ubuntu seems well and truly crashed once the drive hangs, switching console from X to vc1 makes the mouse disappear and thats it
[03:04] <_plague_87> only serbian
[03:04] <nobby> one_matthias: I recently got some e17 updates through the package manager.  When I tried to update I got some error messages.  Now I can't install or update any packages.  And running apt-get install -f produces that error, along with others
[03:04] <Lord_Nightmare> my next best idea is to hot-power-cycle the drive somehow
[03:04] <_plague_87> my englis is not very well
[03:04] <Lord_Nightmare> which has a good chance of totalling the already damaged drive and frying the mb

[03:15] <sFEARs> so i have a fresh install of 7.10 and a wireless card that needs ndiswrapper.. i can load the ndiswrapper module so it obviously somewhat installed.. but when i try to load the windows drivers using "ndiswrapper -i" it says program not found. I have the cd loaded as a repository but it can't find an installation candidate to install ndiswrapper. What am i missing?
[03:15] <Lord_Nightmare> RDProg: i'll post the link here
[03:15] <Lord_Nightmare> give me a moment
[03:16] <Jack_Sparrow> dsofiesfw, You should now be in a Modem terminal window so type "ATZ" then return...  It should respond with OK
[03:16] <Greenbox> sFEARs, probably the fact that the cd has no installation candidate for ndiswrapper ;-p
[03:16] <RDProg> lord: ok, thanks, idk what i did wrong, i'm not really an IRC user
[03:16] <Greenbox> you need to connect to the internet for that
[03:16] <Greenbox> or transfer it's .deb file, and it's dependencies manually
[03:16] <FFEMTcJ> Jack_Sparrow: I don't understand?
[03:16] <sFEARs> i can't connect to the net untill i load the drivers
[03:17] <Greenbox> sFEARs, then you have to transfer the .deb for ndiswrapper, along with any dependencies you don't have manually

[03:18] <FFEMTcJ> Jack_Sparrow: a blank window
[03:18] <Jack_Sparrow> dsofiesfw, You should now be in a Modem terminal window so type "ATZ" then return...  It should respond with OK

[03:19] <voici> hi, i compiled and installed the newest version of v4l. after that my webcam stopped working. v4l must have replaced several of the original drivers in /lib/modules. is there a way to restore the original ones that came with gutsy? thanks
[03:19] <manatatas> I use ubuntu
[03:19] <FFEMTcJ> Jack_Sparrow: yes, it does
[03:19] <Jack_Sparrow> bazhang, I started my day in here about 15 hours ago
[03:19] <bazhang> !yay | manatatas
[03:19] <ubotu> manatatas: Glad you made it! :-)
[03:19] <Greenbox> voici, you can revert back to the old packages and their files
[03:19] <bazhang> Jack_Sparrow: get some rest ;]
[03:20] <sFEARs> i don't have linux installed on this machine so that option doesn't work
[03:20] <Pelo> Jack_Sparrow, get off the computer and goto bed, you're no use to anyone in this state
[03:20] <sFEARs> but i'll try to find out how to do it in windows
[03:20] <Jack_Sparrow> FFEMTcJ, great...    so now you want to connect it to a dialer etc.. correct...
[03:20] <RDProg> lord: did I miss the link?
[03:20] <FFEMTcJ> yes
[03:20] <nobby> apt-get is giving the following message "trying to overwrite `.../module.so', which is also in package libevas0-engine-buffer".  Any suggestions how to fix this?
[03:20] <manatatas> yes, I'ts pretty cool with compiz+fusion.. my friends are amazed by it
[03:20] <voici> Greenbox: how would i do that?
[03:20] <Greenbox> sFEARs, then it's even easier to create a bridge with windows
[03:20] <bazhang> Jack_Sparrow: Pelo will answer all the questions ;]
[03:20] <Greenbox> if you search for how to do that, then you can figure it out pretty easily
[03:20] <Greenbox> with google
[03:20] <sFEARs> looking
[03:20] <Greenbox> voici, use the synaptic package manager is the easiest way
[03:21] <Waffle> is there an anonymous surfing tool for ubuntu?
[03:21] <Lord_Nightmare> RDProg: no
[03:21] <voici> i reinstalled the kernel-modules and the restricted-kernel modules but it didn't fix my problem
[03:21] <bazhang> Waffle: such as?

[03:21] <Jack_Sparrow> FFEMTcJ, Use ctrl-A then K to kill the modem terminal... Now that we know the modem is working we need to make a symlink to connect ttyS5 to the modem... Again in terminal type sudo ln -s /dev/ttyUSB1 /dev/modem   and enter your password when prompted...
[03:21] <RDProg> lord: no problem
[03:22] <Jack_Sparrow> Pelo, np.. almost done,  not many of us around that actually used dialup..
[03:22] <dsofiesfw> man, been banned so long, going on like 3 months.

[03:22] <Hamled> if I compile my own kernel, I will have to compile all of the restricted modules myself as well, right?
[03:22] <Pelo> Jack_Sparrow, erre, not sure how

[03:26] <atlef> RDProg: hope you get it up and running again
[03:26] <RDProg> lord: this comp was doing fine, I jsut set it all up, had 3 partitions for the 3 OSes
[03:26] <n8tuser> sFEARs--> what did you type as subnet? what is the ip address?
[03:26] <RDProg> ran XP for a few days, then went to install ubuntu and grub didnt auto configue
[03:26] <sohum> hi all, i have a coupla quick questions. Firstly: does ubuntu come with iptables running? how would i check this for myself?
[03:26] <RDProg> so i tried to to the find thing and then grub through errors at the OS selection screen
[03:26] <Pelo> RDProg, did you get the grub super cd as suggested ?
[03:27] <Cpudan80> sohum: Yes, you can use iptables, there is nothing in them by default
[03:27] <Lord_Nightmare> RDProg: did you check the hdd to be sure its working ok other than the partition stuff?
[03:27] <atlef> I just rescued a borked hardy heron install, so i am pretty proud
[03:27] <Cpudan80> sohum: sudo iptables -L -v
[03:27] <Pelo> RDProg, make that supergrub cd
[03:27] <n8tuser> sohum--> sudo iptables -vL
[03:27] <RDProg> pelo, I have not yet, but i have the window open
[03:27] <sFEARs> 192.168.1.131 & 255.255.255.128.. but i get the same error if i set it to auto.. or 192.168.1.1 & 255.255.255.0
[03:27] <RDProg> i will try it if a cnat figure testdisk out
[03:27] <piedoggie> trying to install cjson and it is complaining about no Pyhon.h  tried looking for Python.h on packages.ubuntu.com but no joy.  how can I find locate the right package?
[03:27] <bazhang> atlef tell the people in #ubuntu+1 ;]
[03:27] <atlef> i have
[03:27] <Pelo> RDProg, dosn'T matter,  dl it , burn it , boot it , use it to fix the boot menu and grub stage 1
[03:27] <atlef> just needed to brag
[03:27] <atlef> :-)
[03:28] <bazhang> haha
[03:28] <Jack_Sparrow> FFEMTcJ, You got the symlink right
[03:28] <Devourer> minimec, yeah.
[03:28] <FFEMTcJ> Jack_Sparrow: yes
[03:28] <Lord_Nightmare> RDProg: if you're dealing with a linux boot, the grub cd is likely a better idea
[03:28] <Jack_Sparrow> Do you have a dialer program in place or a network manager
[03:28] <FFEMTcJ> gnomeppp, but im willing to use whatever.. i have no preferences
[03:28] <Lord_Nightmare> testdisk CAN work for linux stuff
[03:28] <dsofiesfw1> Greetings Channel, again.
[03:28] <bazhang> ugh
[03:29] <sohum> cool, Cpudan80 and n8tuser, thanks.
[03:29] <leo_rockw> sohum: you can install firestarter (gtk) or guarddog (qt)
[03:29] <dsofiesfw1> sorry, is greeting also offtopic?
[03:29] <minimec> Devourer: Have a look at the settings of Quake. See if it uses 'alsa'
[03:29] <Waffle> is ubuntu "debian"
[03:29] <leo_rockw> sohum: frontends for iptables (in case you need them)
[03:29] <Wrathtide> is there anything offtopic?
[03:29] <Jack_Sparrow> FFEMTcJ, bring up gnomeppp
[03:29] <FFEMTcJ> its up
[03:29] <Pelo> Wrathtide, anytinng not troubleshooting related,
[03:29] <sohum> second question: if I do any local routing, such as forcing all traffic to a particular domain to route through a particular interface, does NetworkManager interefere with that?
[03:29] <Jack_Sparrow> FFEMTcJ, I am not familiar with it.. but it should work now
[03:29] <Waffle> is ubuntu "debian"?
[03:30] <Pelo> Wrathtide, freindly banter is allowed as long as it doesn't interfere
[03:30] <leo_rockw> Waffle: no
[03:30] <bazhang> waffle no
[03:30] <Greenbox> Waffle, ubuntu is debian based
[03:30] <Wrathtide> Pelo: lol, i was in the wrong channel, sorry
[03:30] <Greenbox> but no, not the same as debian
[03:30] <Pelo> Waffle, debian based
[03:30] <RDProg> lord: pelo: ok, let me try the CD
[03:30] <Devourer> minimec, I'm not sure it has that capability to select... but I'll look.
[03:30] <Waffle> greenbox: thats what i meant
[03:30] <FFEMTcJ> Jack_Sparrow: is there something else you'd suggest?
[03:31] <xb3rt> anyone know a good apt-get for the sound devices, including alsa
[03:31] <Jack_Sparrow> FFEMTcJ, One sec while I read up on gnomeppp
[03:31] <FFEMTcJ> Jack_Sparrow: it's still not working.. its using pppd, but not working
[03:31] <Pelo> xb3rt, you mean a repos ?
[03:31] <JoCo> are there and good dock apps for linux?
[03:31] <minimec> Devourer: You  need the alsa-oss package I guess, as Quake 3 doesn't use alsa ;)
[03:31] <n8tuser> sFEARs--> you type those in the boxes?
[03:31] <xb3rt> Pelo: yea
[03:31] <bazhang> xb3rt: have you visited #alsa yet?
[03:31] <xb3rt> bazhang: sure havnt, but im going to
[03:31] <n8tuser> FFEMTcJ--> where is it failing? what error?
[03:32] <leo_rockw> JoCo: i use ksmoothdock myself
[03:32] <Pelo> xb3rt, main repos should have everythin you need,  menu > system > admin > synaptic package manager, easy way to search
[03:32] <leo_rockw> JoCo: but i guess you're looking for awn
[03:32] <FFEMTcJ> Jack_Sparrow: http://pastebin.be/9754
[03:32] <Jack_Sparrow> One more sec, then off to bed
[03:32] <bazhang> joco avant-window-navigator seems to be the hot one right now
[03:32] <JoCo> leoI dont see awn under synaptic though
[03:32] <Waffle> how do i get privoxy and tor to work for me? are they always on, or do i need to type some sort of code to turn them on?
[03:32] <bazhang> joco you need to add their repos
[03:33] <leo_rockw> JoCo: or kiba dock...
[03:33] <bberg> has anyone hit a problem with scim and getting package updates?
[03:33] <leo_rockw> JoCo: yeah, i don't think they are in the repos
[03:33] <JoCo> bazhang: what are repos?
[03:33] <sohum> JoCo: there are some guides to awn on the forums. there's a particular repo for it.
[03:33] <pi11ow> Jack_Sparrow, come to me
[03:33] <bberg> has anyone hit a problem with scim and getting package updates?
[03:33] <Lord_Nightmare> RDProg: if you're dealing with a dell, avoiding or intentionally blowing away the dell restore stuff may be advised... see http://www.goodells.net/dellrestore/
[03:33] <leo_rockw> JoCo: the place you get your "synaptic" apps from
[03:33] <JoCo> alright thanks guys ill look into it
[03:33] <FFEMTcJ> Jack_Sparrow: the log for the connect isn't getting an error.. but the 10.64.64.64 is the "default" ip for the remote ip as far as i can tell
[03:33] <Lord_Nightmare> yes, goodells, ONE D
[03:33] <bazhang> http://awn.wetpaint.com/ JoCo
[03:33] <sohum> second question: if I do any local routing, such as forcing all traffic to a particular domain to route through a particular interface, does NetworkManager interefere with that?
[03:33] <Devourer> minimec, is that in the repos?
[03:33] <minimec> Devourer: Yep...
[03:34] <JoCo> bazhang: Thanks!
[03:34] <n8tuser> FFEMTcJ--> you got a handshake and ip addresses are assigned at both ends, so what is missing?
[03:34] <Jack_Sparrow> FFEMTcJ, I must run wife is locked out of her car.. you are really close on that..
[03:34] <atlef> RDProg:  but as i said boot xp cd, repair console fixboot and fixmbr, reboot in to win xp insert vista dvd  http://support.microsoft.com/kb/927392 then boot the live cd to install grub

[03:36] <FFEMTcJ> n8tuser: two, the window still says connecting
[03:36] <n8tuser> FFEMTcJ--> i dont know if you have added default route in your ppp chat script
[03:36] <Pelo> ViperH, all the packages from the link i giave you are in the repos, no need to build the source , execpt for the torbutton which you get from the FF extension page
[03:36] <AZ> I've run into a rather odd problem...  I installed a new video card, and now when I try to load any OS, it locks up completely.  I had Ubuntu & XP on the machine, and they both lock up, as do the Ubuntu, Kubuntu, and OpenSUSE liveCDs, and the XP installer.  The only thing that does work is the Knoppix LiveCD, which worked perfectly fine for several hours
[03:36] <atlef> RDProg: and you need to do this in sequence, as explained
[03:36] <n8tuser> FFEMTcJ--> check your route -n and paste it in pastebin <--- do this please
[03:36] <atlef> as far as i know
[03:36] <Devourer> minimec, the sound is still not working. :|
[03:36] <ViperH> ok
[03:36] <FFEMTcJ> yup

[03:36] <Pelo> AZ, boot the recovery mode , then type sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[03:37] <Devourer> minimec, I think there is a config file where I can change what sound device it uses, let me try that.
[03:37] <ng0n> help ! my sound goes bad when i send a line with Pigin.
[03:37] <ViperH> now my question..  Its considered bad manners to download via bit-torrent via tor.  Now is there a way to block only the tracker of bit torrent and maintain anonyminity but still download the files not through tor/privoxy?
[03:37] <minimec> Devourer: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=17490
[03:37] <Pelo> ng0n, check the pidgin settings
[03:37] <FFEMTcJ> n8tuser: http://pastebin.be/9755
[03:37] <bazhang> ViperH: not for this channel sorry
[03:37] <ng0n> pelo. ok
[03:37] <AZ> Pelo, unfortunately, recovery mode hangs too.  I get to the desktop, just before the icons & taskbars appear, and then it locks up.  Can't even move the mouse
[03:38] <Devourer> minimec, that's what I'm reading. Lol.
[03:38] <minimec> Devourer: ;)
[03:38] <Pelo> AZ, recovery mode you get from the grub menu, should be text mode
[03:38] <ViperH> Right on.. its for legit purposes,  Do you know what channel I need to go to?
[03:38] <one_matthias> anyone with ati mobility radeon graphics card ...
[03:38] <bazhang> ViperH: no idea sorry
[03:38] <ViperH> alright thanks for the links fellas.
[03:38] <EnK> anybody have a web-site suggestion on troubleshooting mysterious lock-ups with Ubuntu?
[03:39] <Pelo> ViperH, try on the p2p-irc network
[03:39] <bazhang> EnK: more info please
[03:39] <n8tuser> FFEMTcJ--> you have not added a  default route on your ppp chat..thats why the result of your route -n  does not show a gateway..you can also add it manually
[03:39] <ViperH> ok
[03:39] <Pelo> EnK, not realy what do you have running and when doess his happen ?
[03:39] <FFEMTcJ> n8tuser: how might i do that
[03:40] <EnK> It's a fresh install, and I've not installed anything outside the norm.
[03:40]  * Pelo is starting to suspect that mystirious cronjobs might be responsible for system lockup on some comps,  sendmail seems to take a lot of resources and starts for no apparent reasons 
[03:40] <n8tuser> FFEMTcJ--> route add command if done manually
[03:40] <EnK> The system freezes instantly and there doesn't seem to be any consistency (software, webpage open, etc.)
[03:40] <ng0n> ok.. turned off sounds in Pigin.
[03:41] <Pelo> !enter | EnK
[03:41] <ubotu> EnK: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[03:41] <Pelo> ng0n, test and let us know
[03:41] <Greenbox> Pelo there's a lot of programs that call sendmail directly
[03:41] <ng0n> sound test
[03:41] <Pelo> Greenbox, but I wonder why
[03:41] <ng0n> ok. GOOD. thanks PELO
[03:41] <goose> why is it when I try and compile a script and type "make" in terminal, I get "make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop."
[03:41] <ng0n> turning off sounds worked.
[03:42] <LiraNuna> goose, "compile a script" ?
[03:42] <AZ> Pelo, when I chose recovery mode, it tried to load a graphical interface.  Bit of a moot point now, I'm afraid, since I decided to nuke the whole drive and reinstall windows first, but I only got as far as deleting the partitions before the XP installer went splat
[03:42] <ng0n> there are other choices.  ALSA, etc.  I'll mess with them some time.
[03:42] <LiraNuna> goose, scripts should be interpreted, not compiled
[03:42] <bazhang> EnK: if you give such sparse info it is really hard to diagnose the problem; what system are you running, what cpu how much ram etc
[03:42] <LiraNuna> goo, what language?
[03:42] <Greenbox> Pelo, try replacing sendmail with a debug executable that just writes everything to output files
[03:42] <goose> er
[03:42] <Greenbox> to see what calls it, and for what purpose
[03:42] <LiraNuna> goose*
[03:42] <LiraNuna> goose, did you ./configure first?
[03:42] <Pelo> AZ, consider that you might be having hdd trouble
[03:42] <goose> LiraNuna, I guess the better way of putting it would be saying: I have no idea what I'm doing, I'm just following a tutorial
[03:42] <n8tuser> FFEMTcJ--> got it?
[03:42] <FFEMTcJ> n8tuser: I'm sorry, but your going to have to give me more guidance on the route add. I am very new to ubunto/linux...
[03:42] <LiraNuna> goose, what are you trying to do
[03:42] <LiraNuna> compile something
[03:42] <FFEMTcJ> I have absolutely no idea what to do.
[03:43] <goose> install inspIRCd
[03:43] <LiraNuna> did you check if it's in the repos?

[03:44] <Pelo> Greenbox, I'm not that 1337,  it's not actualy crashing my system , I just started to notice it since I have conky displaying top cpu usage processs,  and it eat 20% + cpu when it starts,  I just got to wwondering if that might be causing other ppl problems
[03:44] <LiraNuna> goose, dancer-ircd - an IRC server designed for centrally maintained network
[03:44] <bazhang> EnK: how did you install the drivers? when does this generally happen? firefox with a bunch of flash tabs?

[03:44] <Pelo> EnK, have you isntalled the restericted video drivers ? that mgiht help
[03:44] <Wrathtide> !chm
[03:44] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about chm - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[03:44] <LiraNuna> goose, irc BOT?
[03:44] <LiraNuna> you want an irc bot, not IRC server!
[03:44] <Pelo> Wrathtide, xchm is what you want
[03:44] <n8tuser> FFEMTcJ--> route add -net 166.214.38.0 255.255.255.0 gw 10.64.64.64
[03:44] <LiraNuna> what about eggdrop?
[03:44] <leo_rockw> Wrathtide: apt-cache search chm
[03:44] <goose> LiraNuna, I have no idea how to set it up
[03:45] <goose> I'm just stabbing in the dark
[03:45] <n8tuser> FFEMTcJ--> sudo route add -net 166.214.38.0 255.255.255.0 gw 10.64.64.64
[03:45] <LiraNuna> lol
[03:45] <techqbert> should a NAND compact flash card last 5+ years as a relatively idle web-server?
[03:45] <LiraNuna> goose, eggdrop is easy
[03:45] <leo_rockw> Wrathtide: well, that 's a long list, lemme grep it, lol
[03:45] <EnK> what's a "restericted video driver"?
[03:45] <EnK> Is that a spelling error?
[03:45] <leo_rockw> EnK: non free
[03:45] <LiraNuna> Enders, it's not open source
[03:45] <leo_rockw> EnK: ooo, lol
[03:45] <majestic> hello,,I was wondering if someone can point me to the direction creating a raid 1 within the installation wizard?
[03:45] <goose> LiraNuna, I looked at it, but I didn't understand it. Could you help me set it up?
[03:45] <bazhang> EnK: how did you installed the driver
[03:45] <Pelo> goose,  just google for xchat perl script , you'll probably get a butload of them free online
[03:45] <tritium> goose: supybot is what ubotu and the other ubuntu bots are based on
[03:46] <EnK> The driver was isntalled when I installed the OS
[03:46] <LiraNuna> goose, don't have the time, really; but just get the example .conf file and replace stuff
[03:46] <FFEMTcJ> n8, its complaining about the usage of the command and not taking it
[03:46] <LiraNuna> it's easy if you have a brain
[03:46] <ng0n> if i only had a brain.
[03:46] <AZ> Pelo, I'm starting to think the same thing...  I've just started trying to install XP on an empty partition on the second HD, and so far it's going well.  Though I don't know why a bad HD would cause the LiveCDs to hang...
[03:46] <Pelo> EnK, restricted driver for the video card,  in menu > system > admin > restricted driver
[03:46] <ng0n> ;)
[03:46] <goose> LiraNuna, thanks
[03:46] <LiraNuna> goose, np
[03:46] <LiraNuna> afk
[03:46] <n8tuser> FFEMTcJ--> paste the error
[03:46] <goose> Pelo, thanks for like, the 4th time today
[03:46] <bazhang> EnK: really need an answer to all the questions k thx
[03:46] <Pelo> AZ, live cd does try to mount local hdd
[03:46] <leo_rockw> Wrathtide: gnochm
[03:47] <Pelo> goose, I'm not counting,  but I'm pretty sure you're still in the red

[03:47] <Pelo> :-)
[03:47] <n8tuser> FFEMTcJ--> also paste your ppp chat script
[03:47] <goose> Pelo, still in the red?
[03:47] <FFEMTcJ> n8tuser: where's that
[03:47] <EnK> bazhang - I've answered your question.  Pelo - Restricted Driver Mnager says I have no hardware that needs restricted drivers
[03:47] <brandonc503> hey all i need help with my linksys router.. what channel should i use?
[03:47] <leo_rockw> Wrathtide: kchmviewer (as you can see, there's more than one)
[03:48] <leo_rockw> brandonc503: 6 sounds about right
[03:48] <Pelo> EnK, ok , what have you instaled that is not part of the default ?
[03:48] <EnK> Pelo - Nothing
[03:48] <AZ> Pelo, ok, that'd make sense...  Though I'm not sure why Knoppix didn't have any difficulties, unless it's the fact that it doesn't seem to mount the drives until the OS is completely loaded.  Although I'm baffled as to why it would work once the OS was loaded and  not before
[03:48] <majestic> hello,,I was wondering if someone can point me to the direction creating a raid 1 within the installation wizard?
[03:48] <bazhang> EnK: when does this generally happen? using firefox with a bunch of tabs? running compiz? etc etc
[03:48] <Pelo> EnK, desktop effects enalbled ?
[03:48] <brandonc503> leo_rockw i mean here in x chat.. unless you guys can help
[03:48] <n8tuser> FFEMTcJ--> let me ask you, why are you using dial-up ppp? its a fairly complex config setup..
[03:49] <EnK> only desktop effects (if that's what it's called) is multiple desktops.
[03:49] <minimec> brandonc503: doesn't matter normally...
[03:49] <RDProg> pelo: are there any good walkthroughs for the supergrub disk?
[03:49] <Pelo> AZ, bad hdd might mount sometimes and not others, that's why they are bad,  they are just plain unrelaiable
[03:49] <FFEMTcJ> n8tuser: I have a cingular/AT&T wireless card that I want to run using linux so I don't have to use windows.. There is no software to run it "out of the box" like windows
[03:49] <brandonc503> minimec what dosent matter? the channel i chat in?
[03:49] <leo_rockw> brandonc503: oh, i thought you meant router channel... ok lol
[03:49] <bazhang> EnK: disable that and perhaps try a lighter weight browser and see if that helps
[03:49] <EnK> bazhang - I answered that question already.  There's no consistency. Software running, applications open, etc.
[03:50] <EnK> a lighter weight browser than Mozilla?
[03:50] <n8tuser> FFEMTcJ--> have you read up on ppp tutorial yet? ever? they fairly much similar, can you try that first?
[03:50] <fdsjkalf> hihi
[03:50] <Roy_M> Hi, how do I remove the gui from my ubuntu 7.10 install?
[03:50] <bazhang> EnK: it probably is a ram issue when you get down to it--compiz, firefox, flash etc take up a lot of memory and you have only 512; you might consider fluxbuntu instead
[03:51] <Pelo> RDProg,  the menues are pretty self explanatories, if you take the time to figure them out,  basicaly grub is in two parts, stage 1  in on the boot sector and direct to the menu onthe /boot foldr of the ubuntu partition if you are currently booting into vista you want to make fix stage 1
[03:51] <FFEMTcJ> n8tuser: I was following other tutorials that I found, none of which have included most of the stuff we've been doing...
[03:51] <Pelo> Roy_M, google for sudo apt-get remove ubuntu-desktop
[03:51] <minimec> brandonc503: Misunderstood your question... sorry. Try to have a look in the forums of linksys, as there is probably no #chatroom
[03:51] <Roy_M> thanks Pelo
[03:51] <AZ> Pelo, makes sense.  Although I did load Knoppix quite a few times, and it worked every time without a hitch.  I suppose maybe whatever it uses to mount the drives is a little more tolerant of bad drives.  Or something...  I'm quite sure I'm talking out my behind at this point
[03:52] <Pelo> AZ, you'll figure it out eventualy
[03:52] <n8tuser> FFEMTcJ--> you have to understand the basics, and walking you through the steps is too costly, i'd like you to read up a lil bit how to setup ppp, then we can discuss
[03:52] <FFEMTcJ> ok.. do you have any particular reading you'd suggest?
[03:53] <AZ> Pelo, probably, though doubtless there'll be a few more head-shaped dents in my wall before I do
[03:53] <bluefoxx__> anyone ever hear of RAM that limits how much is in the system? i have a pair of 64 sticks that wont let the system have anymore than 128 mb...even though i have 4x 64 mb sticks in there...
[03:53] <RDProg> pelo: ok, thx, i'll let you know what happens
[03:53] <Polishpaul> i'm trying to connect my laptop's external VGA to my monitor. When i enable the 2nd monitor in System > admin > screens & graphics, and manually look it up (model), it asks me for a driver?! Where do i get it? - - see, i don't wanna auto-detect my ext. monitor because it will eff-up my xorg.conf. I want to be able to have 2 monitors defined as clones. (poor man's docking station).
[03:53] <Pelo> AZ, :-)
[03:53] <n8tuser> FFEMTcJ--> not on top of my head, but i'd use google to search for setting up ppp link and also basics of tcp/ip
[03:53] <FFEMTcJ> ok
[03:53] <Polishpaul> bluefox__ what kind of mobo? mem? be specific
[03:53] <Pelo> RDProg, best of luck,  grub isnt all taht difficult, it's just a little odd to figure out at first
[03:54] <Pelo> Polishpaul, just use the generic one
[03:54] <Polishpaul> Pelo: i'll try
[03:55] <Polishpaul> it still asks for a driver
[03:55] <Pelo> Polishpaul, hmmm,
[03:55] <asdfjkl> Hey Everyone I am having some trouble with VLC, all of my videos that used to work before are... I can't really describe it, the frames are hopping around.

[03:56] <Rayston> Hey everyone trying to install latest version on an older machine getting "Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill the idle task!"
[03:57] <Pelo> Rayston, the alternate install cd is often more forgiving

[03:57] <asdfjkl> Thats very odd... I will tell you what happened.  But I just fixed it so you don't have to think of a fix.
[03:59] <thechitowncubs> Is there any way to output a message onto a logged in users screen using zenity?
[03:59] <RDProg> pelo: I cannot get to the menus
[03:59] <asdfjkl> I have just installed 7.10, I do not have compiz, just gnome.  I had put Visual Effects settings at none, and all my videos frames would jump forward, I put the Effects at normal, and it works fine.

[03:59] <rybotsky> hey i need help
[04:00] <n8tuser> thechitowncubs--> what is zenity? in command line you can try write or wall
[04:00] <Pelo> RDProg, the super grub cd is jsut a series of text menus, type enter or someting , try with the arrows and the tab key,  I don'T remember excatly how to get around in it , I haven't used it in a while , but it can be figured out

[04:01] <Pelo> RDProg, you can also ask in #grub but it is not terribly busy
[04:01] <Pelo> rybotsky, did you try and edit the /etc/apt/sources.lst file ?
[04:01] <RDProg> yeah
[04:01] <Polishpaul> bluefoxx__: i'd need to look up documentation on it. I'd try running mem test first! that usually catches bum slots or ram
[04:02] <rybotsky> how do i do that
[04:02] <minimec> rybotsky: You seem to have an error in line 60 of you /etc/apt/sources.list
[04:02] <rybotsky> ya i do
[04:02] <rybotsky> how do i fix it
[04:02] <goose> ok, I downloaded eggdrop via synaptic, where is it and how can I use it?
[04:02] <goose> please
[04:02] <bluefoxx__> Polishpaul: slot 1, with a 450 mhz pentium3...i think its the ram i wanted to install though...i have 256 working in it now but two are mismatched...if i put even one of the 'new' sticks in with three other 64 m sticks it only showed 128 not 256...the ram in question seems to have a mitsubishi symbol on it. all the slots are good, and all my ram, except for the two 'new' sticks, which were salvaged from a old school computer...
[04:02] <Pelo> rybotsky,  the idea is not to do it , go back and restore your back up , and use the gui instead,  menu > system > admin > sources list

[04:04] <Karsyth> i do have wine installed though
[04:04] <Polishpaul> bluefoxx__: this will usually reveal info such as if the ram is buffered, ECC or any other special types
[04:05] <Odd-rationale> rybotsky: How did you backup?
[04:05] <bluefoxx__> Polishpaul: idk really, im trying to boot a ubunut gutsy cd to install and then i can test it all out from an installed OS...its not currently attatched to a dedicated screen or in a case, instead its running out of a cardboard box and hooked up to the mon on my grandfathers pc i made him[i also grabbed the pair of 128 sticks out of it to install ubuntu]

[04:17] <Rayston> sorry for the repost guys, laptop powered down on me. any ideas for my problem?
[04:17] <jrib> dee_: paste the output of "groups"
[04:17] <madrazr> hii all, I have a small problem setting up an http server on my system, my ISP gives Dynamic IPs. I have installed all the necessary tools like LAMP, ddclient and also my IP is getting updated at DynDNS. But still when I type the URL it doesn't work. Please help
[04:17] <dee_> IT WORKED
[04:17] <basy> Odd-rationale: yes, its confidential.. :(

[04:19] <nickrud> rybotsky: it should look like     deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/reacocard-awn/ubuntu gutsy main
[04:19] <minimec> rybotsky: it should be ... deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/reacocard-awn/ubuntu gutsy  main
[04:19] <Kyro> 1 channel op :/
[04:19] <Hamled> my sound is working, but the computer still uses the internal pc speaker for some things, like when I try to backspace on the console and there are no characters to remove, or I use tab completion and it doesn't find anything
[04:19] <Odd-rationale> basy: OK. If you paste it all into a spreadsheet. do you get 200 rows?
[04:19] <Kyro> Hamled, same with me
[04:19] <Hamled> is there any way to make all the error sounds go through alsa?
[04:19] <minimec> rybotsky: as I said... the 'echo thing' ;)
[04:20] <nickrud> Hamled: that's the system bell, you can turn it off at   edit->current profile
[04:20] <Hamled> ok, well that helps with the console, but there are other applications, such as x-chat that do the same thing
[04:20] <stik> This alpha is freaking nice
[04:20] <rybotsky> so just remove the echo and those apostrophe's and it should fix it
[04:21] <TrueNme> my update manager is broke
[04:21] <nickrud> Hamled:  for those, system->prefs->sound system-beep iirc
[04:21] <Hamled> thanks nickrud
[04:21] <Odd-rationale> basy: /join #Odd-rationale And let's see if we can do this. I have an idea.
[04:22] <dee_> argh this is giving me a headache i don tknow why its not working
[04:22] <atlef> stik: alpha 6
[04:22] <atlef> stik: *?

[04:24] <jrib> Rayston: what version number exactly?
[04:24] <stik> ubuntu+1?
[04:24] <minimec> rybotsky: You have to start the file manager with 'sudo'. So... Open a Terminal and type 'gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list'
[04:24] <dee_> jrib: yes it does. i answered Yes. entered the password. still doens't work

[04:25] <atlef> !#ubuntu+1 | stik:

[04:25] <ubotu> stik:: Hardy Heron is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (8.04-LTS), due April 2008 - For more info, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardyHeron - CONSIDER IT TO BE PRE BETA (ALPHA) SOFTWARE - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1, NOT #ubuntu
[04:25] <stik> Awwww...
[04:25] <dee_> jrib; wait. now it works. its' logged in as cryonix@home
[04:25] <jrib> Rayston: haven't seen that before.  Does it happen with the alternate cd as well?
[04:25] <stik> or is that Ahhhhh lol
[04:26] <madrazr> nickrud: when one of my friend tries http://IP-adress it works for him
[04:26] <TrueNme> ~~nickrud~~ still giving me error
[04:26] <nickrud> madrazr: same provider?
[04:26] <madrazr> but the even http://ip-address will also not work for me
[04:26] <madrazr> nickrud: ya same ISP
[04:26] <jrib> dee_: ok.  Now pastebin the output of 'sudo iptables -L'
[04:26] <dee_> jrib how come i can login locally. but i can't remotely log in?
[04:26] <madrazr> nickrud: but different routers
[04:26] <dee_> ok
[04:26] <jrib> dee_: close that terminal first
[04:26] <nickrud> TrueNme: run   sudo apt-get update   in a terminal, and copy the output to http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[04:27] <nickrud> madrazr: could be your router, can you connect at 127.0.0.1 ?
[04:27] <jrib> Rayston: and did you verify the integrity of your burn?
[04:27] <madrazr> ya
[04:27] <Rayston> jrib : havent tried the alternate CD
[04:27] <TrueNme> ~~nickrud~~  this is my error "E: Type '<!DOCTYPE' is not known on line 1 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/medibuntu.list
[04:27] <TrueNme> E: Unable to lock the list directory"
[04:27] <dee_> jrib: http://pastebin.com/m4e794f6d
[04:27] <madrazr> nickrud: I have setup virtual hosts in my system, could that be a problem
[04:27] <jrib> dee_: ok, now do you use a router?
[04:28] <dee_> jrib: yes i do
[04:28] <nickrud> TrueNme: put the contents of that file on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[04:28] <TaRDy> is there such a thing as triple booting? (i.e. having another distro, ubuntu, and windows?)
[04:28] <jrib> dee_: you need to set it up to forward port 22 to that machine
[04:28] <madrazr> nickrud: also my localhost is pointing to a directory in home and not to /var/www
[04:28] <atlef> TaRDy: yes
[04:28] <madrazr> nickrud: when I type http://my ip adress in the browser it will redirect to my 192,168.1.1 page, i.e my modem setup page
[04:28] <nickrud> madrazr: I'd suggest trying a really simple apache config , make sure that's not the issue. But I'm no apache whiz
[04:28] <atlef> !triple boot | TaRDy:
[04:28] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about triple boot - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[04:29] <rybotsky> ok i did that and now it's saying the same thing as before except that it's line 61 this time
[04:29] <madrazr> nickrud: ok
[04:29] <dee_> jrib; via DMZ?
[04:29] <nickrud> madrazr: you have set stuff up strangely then. 127.0.0.1 should be localhost by definition
[04:29] <madrazr> ya 127.0.0.1 is localhost
[04:29] <nickrud> madrazr: ah, nm misunderstood what you typed up above
[04:29] <minimec> madrazr: type localhost <enter>
[04:29] <TaRDy> thank you atlef

[04:30] <madrazr> minimec: I get the the the contents of my htdocs
[04:30] <TrueNme> ~~Nickrud~~ it gives me that error in the terminal after i type in the command you gave me
[04:30] <rybotsky> minimec ok i did that and now it's saying the same thing as before except that it's line 61 this time
[04:30] <madrazr> minimec: in the sense its /home/madhu/myweb
[04:30] <madrazr> I get the folders in this directory in my browser
[04:31] <rybotsky> but all i see on line 61 is sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list
[04:31] <nickrud> TrueNme: fine, but put up the contents of /etc/apt/sources.list.d/medibuntu.list
[04:32] <minimec> rybotsky: well.. all the lines in the sources.list have to start with 'deb' or' deb-src'. Otherwise put an '#' at the beginning of the line, as the  '#' lines are ignored.
[04:33] <minimec> marve: How comes ... ?
[04:33] <nickrud> rybotsky: sounds like you put some lines into that file by mistake.   gedit /etc/apt/sources.list , put the contents on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[04:33] <minimec> madrazr: How comes ... ?
[04:35] <rybotsky> minimec    thanx alott man   it';s all working good now

[04:36] <madrazr> minimec: what??/
[04:38] <minimec> madrazr: I don't have an answer to the fact, that your apache is not pointing to /var/www as it should by default...
[04:39] <sCOTTo> hey guys - i am playing around between my ubuntu laptop right now and a windows 2003 server box... can someone help me get the server to see my ubuntu and the ubuntu to see the server - and access both ways?
[04:41] <minimec> madrazr: ... 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure apache2' could be a solution...
[04:41] <madrazr> minimec: no I want my apache that way
[04:41] <madrazr> thats not a problem now
[04:42] <minimec> madrazr: ok
[04:42] <madrazr> minimec: the only problem is that when I type the DynDNS URL, its redirecting to my modem setup page
[04:42] <madrazr> instead of pointing my localhost
[04:43] <RoAkSoAx> madrazr, which modem are you using?
[04:43] <hanthana> hi
[04:44] <hanthana> can we keep downloaded ubuntu updates for a time
[04:44] <hanthana> I mean after finishing the update?
[04:44] <madrazr> RoAkSoAx: D-Link GLB-502T
[04:45] <minimec> madrazr: redirect port 80 to your local machine
[04:45] <madrazr> minimec: how to do it?
[04:45] <madrazr> minimec: please help
[04:46] <Faerris> Hi folks, I'm running Ubuntu FF as a web server on my VPS and I'm looking to upgrade from PHP 5.2.3 to 5.2.5, any easy way for me to do this?
[04:47] <minimec> madrazr: You have to configure your router/modem (probably 'firewall section' or 'routing')
[04:47] <TrueNme> ~~nickrud~~ Sorry lost my connection what am i sending where for the error with my update manager ?
[04:47] <bluefoxx_> anyone know of a place for me to buy a cheap[ish] IR modual for my PC?
[04:47] <nickrud> TrueNme: gedit /etc/apt/sources.list.d/medibuntu.list , paste that at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org

[04:50] <nickrud> TrueNme: yup, a sec
[04:50] <beatlesfan> I have a question about text rendering in Firefox in Ubuntu 7.10
[04:50] <beatlesfan> the pages in Firefox are not rendering quite as they should... text is not aligned.
[04:50] <beatlesfan> anybody know how to fix ?
[04:51] <TaRDy> my windows partition files arent showing up under /media/sda1
[04:51] <nickrud> TrueNme: well, you definitely put the wrong stuff in there :)    sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/medibuntu.list , start the update manager again and hit the check button
[04:51] <Jack_Sparrow> beatlesfan, What version of Ubuntu and version of Firefox
[04:51] <beatlesfan> ubuntu "gutsy gibon" v7.10, Firefox came installed with it
[04:52] <beatlesfan> 2.0.0.12
[04:52] <Jack_Sparrow> beatlesfan, Just checking
[04:52] <nickrud> TaRDy: is it mounted?  mount | sort , should be the first line if it is
[04:53] <bluefoxx_> whats the least amount of ram i can run a full install of ubuntu in, once installed?
[04:53] <beatlesfan> bluefoxx, I read on the forum that 256Mb is the least amount you should run
[04:53] <TrueNme> ~~nickrud~~ is the package manager the only way to get software ?
[04:54] <nickrud> TrueNme: it's the best way by far.
[04:54] <Jack_Sparrow> bluefoxx_, Using the minimal install you can get it way down but 256 or so .. what do you have?
[04:54] <TaRDy> nickrud it is not mounted
[04:54] <atlef> TrueNme: getdeb
[04:54] <chicory> Does anyone have suggestions for mods for someone with ADD, or at least a problem with attention?
[04:54] <nickrud> TaRDy: sudo mount -a , check again to see if it's mounted.
[04:54] <atlef> TrueNme: http://www.getdeb.net/
[04:54]  * chicory was unable to find, say, a #lifehacker channel
[04:54] <TaRDy> nickrud, Mount is denied because NTFS is marked to be in use.
[04:55] <nickrud> TrueNme: I personally use only a very few, cherry picked apps from outside the package manager.
[04:55] <n2diy> chicory: what ADD issues are being faced?
[04:55] <TrueNme> ~~nickrud~~i like most of the apps but it seems there are more avail. for kde
[04:55] <nickrud> TaRDy: ah. Well, I'd suggest booting back into windows, let windows fix the disk.
[04:56] <chicory> n2diy: Primarily time management, but also visual cue problems.
[04:56] <beatlesfan> after much fooling around I finally got dual boot with WinXP to work
[04:56] <TaRDy> nickrud, alright, thank you for the help
[04:56] <Jack_Sparrow> TrueNme, You can mix and match kde apps in ubuntu
[04:56] <nickrud> TrueNme: you can run kde apps in ubuntu no problem. I use amarok myself
[04:56] <chicory> Namely, er, window sorting, flashing notifications, that sort of thing.
[04:56] <bluefoxx_> Jack_Sparrow: i have 384ish in it now, using 2x128 sticks and 2x64 sticks, but im gonna pull those to throw in another PC[they came from another one initially]. so then ill only have a few random 64 sticks im selling and a pair of 32 sticks...
[04:56] <Jack_Sparrow> nickrud, goodnight
[04:56] <nickrud> Jack_Sparrow: likewise
[04:56] <chicory> JDarkroom for text editing is a good place to start, but in most situations I have to have multiple windows open in a workspace.
[04:56] <Jack_Sparrow> !minimal
[04:56] <ubotu> The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[04:57] <TrueNme> well alot of the apps in the package manger wont install some thing about not for my machine or needs this and this cant be installed
[04:57] <n2diy> chicory: I use korganizer for time managment, can't help with the visual cues.
[04:57] <chicory> Even with the ADD Helper for compiz I'm having problems with task-switching.
[04:57] <chicory> Mmm.  Thanks, n2diy.
[04:57] <bob42> hey guys, I'd like to install this unstable package (http://ftp.ch.debian.org/debian/pool/main/p/pommed/pommed_1.16~dfsg-1_i386.deb), what line shoul I add in sources.list to be able to install it from apt-get ?
[04:57] <n2diy> chicory: GL
[04:58] <chicory> Thanks.
[04:58] <Odd-rationale> bob42: Nothing just click, download and double-click the .deb to install.
[04:58] <nickrud> TrueNme-AFK: if it's in the repo list, you should be able to install it. do that gutsy sources thing again. You have a misconfiguration
[04:59] <TrueNme-AFK> ~~Nickrud~~ that fixed my update manager
[04:59] <TrueNme-AFK> ~~nickrud~~ what gutsy sorces thing
[04:59] <bob42> Odd-rationale: yea but it ask me for a dependance (libasound2) but is already installed
[04:59] <nickrud> !gutsysources | TrueNme-AFK (this will fix your package manager config, you should be able to install anything in the repos)
[04:59] <ubotu> TrueNme-AFK (this will fix your package manager config, you should be able to install anything in the repos): 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).
[05:00] <Odd-rationale> bob42: It should notice that it is already installed. no?
[05:00] <TrueNme-AFK> ~~Nickrud~~ thats the settings i have
[05:01] <nickrud> TrueNme-AFK: what's not installing then?
[05:01] <TrueNme-AFK> ~~Nickrud~~ some codec for movieplayer
[05:02] <nickrud> TrueNme-AFK: ah. That's the medibuntu thing, most likely. The one so you can play dvd's?
[05:03] <bob42> Odd-rationale: yea I think too but it say: Error: Dependcy is not satisfiable: libasound2
[05:03] <TrueNme-AFK> ~~Nickrud~~ nevermind i have a buch of new things now too  i think i set them last time you told me and they wernt set prior to that ill try to install them now
[05:03] <TrueNme-AFK> ~~Nickrud~~ thx for all the help
[05:03] <chicory> Oh, speaking of JDarkroom - for the life of me I can't remember how to change the default JRE.
[05:03] <chicory> How do I change the provider?
[05:04] <minimec> bob42: try to download the package and install it with 'sudo dpkg -i pommed_1.16~dfsg-1_i386.deb'. If you still have the dependency problem you could try to force the install (see man dpkg).
[05:04] <Odd-rationale> bob42: Hmm. Must be because that package is from a debian repo...
[05:04] <nickrud> TrueNme-AFK: ok. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu#head-7486ed038a9becc1dff10a24cc07a38a00d70e9f , start there to set up medibuntu to get the  codecs and libdvdcss when you're ready
[05:04] <TrueNme-AFK> ~~Nickrud~~ ok whats a good antivirus ?
[05:04] <xb3rt> I get this error when i trying playing an mp3 in totem
[05:04] <xb3rt> The playback of this movie requires a audio/x-asf-unknown decoder plugin which is not installed.
[05:04] <xb3rt> how do i fix this
[05:04]  * nickrud wonders if he should do the !don't install debian packages! warning
[05:05] <TrueNme-AFK> ~~Nickrud~~ or do i even need one on here
[05:05] <nickrud> TrueNme-AFK: you don't need one in linux :)
[05:05] <TrueNme-AFK> ok
[05:05] <l815> my back and forward buttons on my mouse don't work with epiphany
[05:07] <bob42> minimec: thanks, now I know that its because I need libasound2 >> 1.0.16, How can I get this version available in my package manager ?
[05:08] <nickrud>  !don't install debian packages!
[05:09] <nickrud> xb3rt: that doesn't sound like an mp3 , try    file <thefileyou'retyingtoplay>

[05:10] <jerbear> is there a way to purge application data for packages that have already been removed?
[05:11] <nickrud> s match but they won't at some time, some ubuntu stuff has patches that aren't in debian which create subtle bugs, etc
[05:11] <n2diy> nickrud: ok, I thought Ubuntu might be getting exclusive!?
[05:11] <minimec> bob42: Well... Your are playing around with debian and Ubuntu packages ;) ... Be aware... You willprobably find your libasound2 >> 1.0.16 in debian 'lenny' -->> packages.deiban.org... ->I am not sure, if you should do this >-
[05:11] <dee_> i've set up user accounts and i'm trying to connect to this box via Putty (Windows Box) But i keep getting Access Denied when i enter the login details. I Can't find any help on google either.
[05:11] <nickrud> n2diy: lol, without debian ubuntu would be in deep doo doo

[05:12] <n2diy> nickrud: roger that! :)
[05:12] <chicory> Hmm ...
[05:12] <chicory> This is a shot in the dark, but does anyone know much about syncing an iPod Touch or iPhone with Ubuntu?
[05:12] <Daisuke_Ido> without debian, ubuntu wouldn't exist...
[05:12] <prince_jammys> basy: http://paste.stgraber.org/1513
[05:13] <chicory> I've been looking for FAQ's, but it seems like everything is music- and video-centric.
[05:13] <atlef> chicory: http://www.gtkpod.org/about.html
[05:13] <chicory> ... And requires jailbreaking.
[05:13] <atlef> for example
[05:13] <dee_> I dont think its a matter of port forwarding. because i can connect to this box via putty. But it keeps saying Access Denied. I'm sure ive spelt everything correctly
[05:13] <atlef> have not tried it though
[05:13] <Daisuke_Ido> Khajavi: unless you're using more than 4gb ram and do a lot (and i mean a LOT) of high-impact realtime video editing, stuff like that, stick with 32 bit.
[05:14] <nickrud> chicory: for the latest ones (like 3d gen nano) you need later software than is in ubuntu
[05:14] <n2diy> I'm helping a friend put audio files on is Motorola i880 cell phone. I can read and write to the card with no problems, once Dapper sees that card. The problem is, it takes hours for Dapper to find the card in my reader. It is a standard Sandisk SD 256m card, Ideas?
[05:14] <chicory> nickrud: If it requires subversion or building, I could do either.
[05:15] <Khajavi> Daisuke_ldo: You mean that people who have 64bit use ubuntu 32bit?
[05:15] <chicory> All I know is that (last I checked) many guides called for creating an OpenSSH server on the iPod/iPhone for direct filesystem access.
[05:15] <Starnestommy> Khajavi: they can, but not all do
[05:15] <Smegzor> I've been using onboard sound and just installed a Creative Audigy card.  Where do I tell Ubuntu to use the new card?  Its still using onboard sound.
[05:15]  * TrustNoOne kisses the room and hugs everyone in it
[05:15] <dee_> any ideas guys?
[05:15] <chicory> That's great and all, but, er, it'd be nice to port my calendar and the like.
[05:15] <nickrud> chicory: http://www.gtkpod.org/libgpod.html , I used this and the gtkpod link on that page. Was able to sync music to my nano, art work didn't work right but I'm satisfied until hardy
[05:15]  * Smegzor slips on the wet floor
[05:16] <TrustNoOne> when is hardy official release date ETA
[05:16] <Daisuke_Ido> most still use 32 bit because of compatibility, yes.
[05:16] <Daisuke_Ido> i do.
[05:16] <Khajavi> stranestormmy: 64 package are less than 32? how many?
[05:16] <Starnestommy> I use the 64-bit version
[05:16] <chicory> And I'm a little wary to jailbreak this close to "iPhone 2.0" firmware coming out.
[05:16]  * nickrud uses a small stick on TrustNoOne 
[05:16] <chicory> Thanks, nickrud.
[05:16] <saikor> Smegzor, check system, prefs, sounds setup.
[05:16] <TrustNoOne> :O?
[05:16] <n2diy> Smegzor: go into your Bios settings, and disable the onboard sound card,
[05:16] <nickrud> TrustNoOne: april 24, last I saw
[05:16] <saikor> Smegzor, and disabled the scard in the bios.
[05:17] <saikor> disable*
[05:17] <TrustNoOne> nickrud, k koo
[05:17] <TrustNoOne> nickrud, wait what? thats soon, beta isnt even out
[05:17] <Starnestommy> Khajavi: I think there were only a couple missing
[05:17] <Khajavi> ok
[05:17] <l815> where are gnome themes saved when installed through appearance?
[05:18] <Khajavi> another question: which is better? intell or AMD?
[05:18] <Smegzor> I looked in the bios but couldn't find anywhere to disable onboard, just change it a bit.
[05:18] <PAPAH> hanisetia2000
[05:18] <Khajavi> for  linux?
[05:18] <Smegzor> I'll have another look
[05:18] <TrustNoOne> l815, they are in /home/user/.themes
[05:18] <l815> TrustNoOne, thanks :)
[05:18] <n2diy> Khajavi: Chevy. :)
[05:19] <TrustNoOne> l815, i do not know if default ubuntu themes are there, but that is where you install new GTK themes
[05:19] <Khajavi> Chevy? what u mean?

[05:19] <Werdna> hi, is there a set of steps for troubleshooting wireless connections in kubuntu/ubuntu? I can connect to one wireless network, but not another one. I think the issue has to do with a multi-word WEP password, which is a problem because it sees the second part of the password as a new directive, not as part of the password. Putting it in quotes (wireless-passphrase s:"word1 word2") seems to connect Okay, and I can ping google, but I ...
[05:19] <ahmedh724> i can't setup ubuntu from the live cd it opens busybox initramfs screen
[05:19] <Werdna> ... can't visit websites or ssh or anything (iwconfig's count of Rx crypt errors increases after I try)
[05:19] <Smegzor> yay!  I have sound :D
[05:19] <Hamled> I compiled my own kernel, so I couldn't install the proprietary nvidia drivers through the restricted drivers manager application (says I need to have linux-restricted-modules-2.6.24.2-mykernel, which doesn't exist obviously), so I used envy to install the drivers, but now I can't select custom settings in the appearance configuration, to use compiz, is there any workaround?
[05:20] <n2diy> Khajavi: Chevy. or Ford, the question doesn't have an answer.
[05:20] <TrustNoOne> nickrud, so skipping beta?
[05:20] <saikor> Hamled, can't select or doesn't appear?
[05:20] <Smegzor> Where does Gnome keep system sounds?
[05:20] <nickrud> TrustNoOne: according to that, march 20 is the first beta release
[05:20] <Khajavi> oohoom:-D
[05:21] <saikor> Smegzor, system, prefs, sound
[05:21] <Daisuke_Ido> n2diy: do you feel the same way about the gnome vs. kde debate?  either or?
[05:21] <Smegzor> where are the actual sound FILES?
[05:21] <nickrud> TrustNoOne: my last work about hardy in this channel: I'm installing then ;)
[05:21] <TrustNoOne> nickrud, oh hah i missed that
[05:21] <individual_elev> anyone knows how to configure wine?
[05:21] <Smegzor> mine have gone missing during a recent update
[05:21] <Hamled> saikor: I can select it, but it prompts me to enable the restricted drivers, and when I select yes, it overwrites the custom-compiled ones with stock ones for a different kernel (2.6.22-14) that don't work at all, and x falls back to vesa
[05:21] <n2diy> Daisuke_Ido: Yes.
[05:22] <Daisuke_Ido> n2diy: i like you.
[05:22] <TrustNoOne> individual_elev, dont need to configure wine, just know some programs not compatible with it, check winehq to see how compatible a windows program is with wine before installing
[05:22] <Khajavi> indi..: for what?
[05:22] <TrustNoOne> !wine | individual_elev
[05:22] <ubotu> individual_elev: WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information, and see !AppDB for application compatibility.
[05:22] <saikor> saikor, ah ok. Sorry no idea.
[05:22] <saikor> Hamled*
[05:22] <ahmedh724>  i can't setup ubuntu from the live cd it opens busybox initramfs screen
[05:22] <n2diy> Daisuke_Ido: Good! I think I like you too!
[05:22] <TrustNoOne> !AppDB | individual_elev
[05:22] <ubotu> individual_elev: The Wine Application DB is a database of applications and help for !Windows programs that run under !WINE: http://appdb.winehq.org
[05:22] <Hamled> saikor: thanks anyways :)
[05:22] <individual_elev> well i was hoping hoping to run some windows games?
[05:22] <Daisuke_Ido> the debate just bugs me.  if there are apps from kde i like, i'll use them, even in gnome.  and vice versa.
[05:23] <n2diy> Daisuke_Ido: If it works, drive it!
[05:23] <TrustNoOne> individual_elev, look at the appdb, it will tell you which ones are compatible, some programs do not install or work properly in wine, its just the way the world turns :p
[05:23] <individual_elev> i see..thanks!
[05:23] <atlef> Daisuke_Ido: agreed
[05:24] <cerberus> hello i would like to install Nessus on my Ubuntu , when i open the synaptic i see "Nessus 2.9..." but there is more newer version on the Nessus website does synaptic have this new version also ?
[05:24] <uncorq> I have snort configured to start referencing the custom config file, but I can't seem to get the syntax correct when trying to get it to start as a system service after reboot: "snort -c /etc/snort/snort.conf" - into what file to I need to put this command?
[05:24] <|2-bits|> Hello, I am wondering if someone can recommend some good torrent software for linux, preferably one that integrates well with GNOME. Currently I use Transmission, but find it a bit lackluster for my purposes
[05:24] <n2diy> Daisuke_Ido: Yes, Kde under Gnome is no big deal, just a little more overhead installing the Kde libraries.
[05:25] <atlef> |2-bits|: deluge
[05:25] <saikor> |2-bits| azeurus?
[05:25] <atlef> some swear to ktorren
[05:25] <atlef> *ktorrent
[05:25] <TrustNoOne> |2-bits|, i use azureus, it is very configurable and easy to disable DHT and decentralized tracking, it has VERY high speeds, and most private trackers allow that client
[05:25] <Daisuke_Ido> n2diy: and is that overhead *really* any burden considering modern storage and ram capacity? no.
[05:25] <rich1> does anyone here use streamtuner?
[05:25] <individual_elev> azureus..
[05:26] <atlef> azureus is to big, to much, but if you need the extra option...
[05:26] <|2-bits|> Wow, lots of input. Thanks, I'll check them out. :)
[05:26] <rich1> how do i get categories back in the shoutcast tab in streamtuner?
[05:26] <atlef> so run utorrent under wine as well
[05:26] <n2diy> Daisuke_Ido: I'm sorry to say it is, here, but my  dual 333mhz cpus can deal with it. :)
[05:26] <atlef> *some
[05:27] <Daisuke_Ido> if that can deal with it, then i really can't see a new-fangled system having problems
[05:27] <TrustNoOne> well yeah i do need azureus, its either that or transmission for my choices in linux for my private tracker, plus its so easy to configure with all those options, and unless you comp really sucks it should bog you down, it doesnt do that to me
[05:28] <|2-bits|> I'll check out deluge and azureus, thanks.
[05:29] <TrustNoOne> i mean whatever works for you, most are personal preference, its like, some ppl like windows for some reasons, some like linux... both have advantages the other doesnt have
[05:30] <n2diy> Daisuke_Ido: Dual 333mhz CPUs, 256m of ram, 17" monitor, mouse and keyboard for $150? I can deal with it too.
[05:31] <Delamorte> hello I was wondering if all the media package's for Ubuntu Studio are avalibale for Ubuntu 32bit and 64bit?
[05:31] <Daisuke_Ido> n2diy: $200 everex gOS machine...  that thing is calling my name, saying "turn me into a media center...  please..."
[05:31] <rich1> does anyone know how to get categories back in shoutcast using streamtuner?
[05:32] <n2diy> Daisuke_Ido: umm, what is gOS?
[05:32] <TrustNoOne> !google | n2diy
[05:32] <ubotu> n2diy: google is the helpers' friend; many newer users dont have the google-fu yet; For GNU/Linux:  http://google.com/linux
[05:33] <n2diy> TrustNoOne: thanks, if I wanted to ask ubotu, I know how.
[05:33] <nj786> where can i change my icons? for my desktop?
[05:33] <atlef> preferences apperence
[05:33] <[chr0n0s]> hi, anyone has idea what this means .. Note: in order to see www-data you may need to modify root's /apps/gnome-system-tools/users/showall GConf setting
[05:33] <bullgard4> TrustNoOne: Please tell me what is meant by'google-fu'?
[05:33] <nickrud> nj786: either change the theme, or right click an individual icon and click the picture in the dialog window
[05:34] <[chr0n0s]> what is supposed to be modified?
[05:34] <atlef> theme
[05:34] <blankthemuffin_> Hey all, having a bit of trouble with my Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 4965 AGN wireless on Ubuntu 7.10 on a Dell Inspiron 1520.
[05:34] <nj786> nickrud: where can i change the theme? where is it under?
[05:34] <TrustNoOne> bullgard4, the ability to quickly answer any given question using internet resources, such as a search engine
[05:35] <nickrud> [chr0n0s]: sudo -i , run gconf-editor , you navigate to that key. But that's a pretty odd instruction, out of context ;)
[05:35] <atlef> nj786: sytem preferences apparance theme
[05:35] <[chr0n0s]> nickrud, it's in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Subversion
[05:35] <sixpence> Is there a CLI universal update command I can pass for apt?
[05:35] <blankthemuffin_> It seems to drop out with this error: "kernel: [ 3869.844000] wlan0: No ProbeResp from current AP 00:08:a1:a1:00:56 - assume out of range"
[05:35] <blankthemuffin_> every few minutes
[05:36] <n2diy> sixpence: apt-get update?
[05:36] <sixpence> n2diy: Thanks.
[05:36] <bullgard4> TrustNoOne: I cannot see a link or connection between what you just told me and the term 'google-fu'. Please elaborate.
[05:36] <n2diy> sixpence: GL
[05:37] <TrustNoOne> bullgard4, a measure of one's level of skill in using the Google search engine in order to find needed/required information quickly
[05:37] <[chr0n0s]> nickrud, thanks
[05:37] <sixpence> n2diy: Does that just update my repositories?
[05:38] <nickrud> bullgard4: it's a play on the word kung-fu
[05:38] <n2diy> sixpence: yes, there databases, I believe.
[05:38] <atlef> TrustNoOne: +1
[05:38] <nag> but the true master uses googlekata
[05:38] <sixpence> n2diy: And what about a command for the individual packages?
[05:38] <bullgard4> nickrud: Ah, thank you very much for explaining. --  I wish you a pleasant good morning from Berlin.
[05:38] <nag> :D
[05:38] <sixpence> bullgard4: Auf Wiedersein!
[05:38] <nickrud> bullgard4: to you also.
[05:39] <TrustNoOne> bullgard4, are you familiar with the term "kung-fu"? the mastering of a martial art? google-fu is wordplay on that, if you have good google-fu you are the master of google
[05:39] <TrustNoOne> hopefully that narrows it down enough for you
[05:39] <bullgard4> TrustNoOne: Thank you for explaining.
[05:39] <TheNewAndy> Is there a way to set the "from" address in evolution? (perhaps through a plugin)
[05:40] <con-man> :)
[05:40] <MagicMoonLight> Hi People
[05:40] <nickrud> bullgard4: it's about time you started regurgitating all this knowledge you've been sucking up :)

[05:42] <l815> my back and forward mouse buttons don't work in epiphany
[05:42] <TrustNoOne> use firefox then
[05:42] <l815> T-T
[05:42] <nickrud> TrustNoOne: that's no help at all
[05:42] <l815> well i'm already using ff but i prefer epiphany :/
[05:43] <l815> and when I installed epiphany those buttons now don't work in ff either
[05:43] <TrustNoOne> nickrud, your right, i guess i am picking up bad habbits from some of the help i received from some people in here ^_^
[05:43] <nixeagle> how would epiphany affect firefox?
[05:43] <nickrud> l815: have you tried enabling mouse gestures in epiphany? they work pretty well
[05:43] <blind> How do I install a gnome theme? I open up the theme manager, click install theme, and pointed it at the archive, at each individual file... i can't figure it out
[05:43] <manatatas> how can i logout using command-line?
[05:43] <bullgard4> TheNewAndy: There is one, certainly. Either you have set it when you set up your Epiphany or Epiphany took it from another configuration file. A grep over all files for your entry will tell you.
[05:43] <n2diy> sixpence: not sure, I play with Synaptic, check out man apt-get? GL.
[05:44] <l815> nickrud, no i haven't, but i'm so used to those buttons, that i find myself clicking them and nothing happens lol
[05:44] <blind> manatatas: logout
[05:44] <nickrud> blind: try just dragging the tar ball you downloaded onto the window , that should install it
[05:44] <sixpence> n2diy: Alright.
[05:44] <blind> alright, i'll try it
[05:44] <l815> where do i enable mouse gestures?
[05:44] <TrustNoOne> blind, download the theme, extract contents to /home/user/.themes and go to System>Preferences>Appearance
[05:44] <manatatas> bind: bash: logout: not login shell: use `exit'
[05:44] <blind> Thanks, nickrud
[05:44] <manatatas> ?
[05:44] <blind> manatatas: type 'exit'
[05:45] <voidmage> I can't get amarok to have mp3 support. When I click the prompt to install mp3 support in amarok it doesn't do anything.
[05:45] <TrustNoOne> lol nickrud... such a simplistic answer vs mine
[05:45] <manatatas> blind: typing exit, just closes the command-line..
[05:45] <MagicMoonLight> Good Question how do we get different mouse themes
[05:45] <blankthemuffin> voidmage, it should take a little while and then give you a password prompt.
[05:46] <voidmage> blankthemuffin: it doesn't do that. it instantly gives me a restart amarok message.
[05:46] <l815> nickrud, where is the option for mouse gestures? i don't see it
[05:46] <blind> manatatas: are you trying to logout via a terminal emulator?
[05:46] <manatatas> blind: yes..
[05:46] <TrustNoOne> MagicMoonLight, extract mouse theme to /home/user/.icons and go to System>Preferences>Appearance and click on customize button and go to Pointer tab
[05:46] <blind> manatatas: I'm not sure if you can do that.. If you can, I'm not sure how.
[05:47] <nickrud> l815: tools->extensions
[05:47] <MagicMoonLight> That I know how to do I kust don't know where to get new themes
[05:47] <MagicMoonLight> for the mouse
[05:47] <l815> nickrud, there's no tools menu! ;o
[05:48] <voidmage> blankthemuffin: oh, i found it
[05:48] <nickrud> l815: what version of ubuntu?  and, do you have the epiphany-extensions package installed?
[05:48] <AndrewB> manatatas: /etc/init.d/gdm restart may do your job in a round about way

[05:48] <Werdna> hello. I can ping google/my router, until I try to do anything substantial on my wireless connection, at which point I can't even ping my router (MAC not in ARP cache). It works fine on another wireless network.
[05:48] <voidmage> blankthemuffin: it wasn't sudo'ing right but it thought it finished, or something
[05:48] <l815> nickrud, i don't have the extensions installed, and i'm using hardy
[05:48] <voidmage> found the package i needed to install anyway
[05:48] <MagicMoonLight> Thx TrustNoOne I will look over there
[05:48] <manatatas> blind, thanks for trying to help
[05:48] <blankthemuffin> voidmage, cool, it's pretty touch and go.
[05:48] <l815> nickrud, thanks
[05:49] <voidmage> it looks like there's an open bug on this
[05:49] <manatatas> AndrewB: I'll try that, thanks..
[05:49] <voidmage> or it was fixed.
[05:49] <voidmage> and my install is acting up again, or something
[05:50] <cerberus__> hello,I need help please , how i can disable software from running on starting at startup ?
[05:50] <blankthemuffin> Nah it's not fixed that's for sure, it took me ages too get it too work the other day.
[05:50] <TrustNoOne> Werdna, could be your router in that case, wireless signals can be disturbed with microwaves and wireless phones and cell phones etc... if you have problems try changing the type of encryption your wireless is using (IE: WPA instead of WEP) and change the wireless channel it is broadcasting on
[05:50] <Werdna> TrustNoOne: Works for two other devices, but it is substantially further away. I'll try that, thanks.

[05:55] <blind> blankthemuffin: can't you just do 'restart' ?
[05:55] <crdlb> blind: sonata will put an icon in your system tray, and you could create a cluster of panel launchers which run 'mpc next', etc
[05:55] <gr1ff1n> can anyone help me pls, I can t find anything on the internet. When I run module-assistant auto-install alsa, I get an error the CFLAGS was changed, what can I do ??
[05:55] <blind> oh, very true.
[05:55] <xp_prg> how do I make sendmail work on ubuntu?
[05:55] <AndrewB> try the command gnome-panel-logout
[05:55] <AndrewB> oh he is gone
[05:56] <blind> crdlb: would i be able to change the size of those launchers? or would they be as big as everything else?
[05:56] <tezzie23> blankthemuffin, I have geforce, but I dont know which one
[05:56] <crdlb> blind: are you using a really tall panel?
[05:56] <tezzie23> blankthemuffin, does dat matter, by any chance
[05:56] <tezzie23> ?
[05:57] <manatatas> blankthemuffin: it worked, thanks..
[05:57] <crdlb> blind: if so, you could put them in a "Launchers List"
[05:57] <manatatas> AndrewB: i forgot sudo, thnaks
[05:57] <AndrewB> oh manatatas np
[05:57] <blankthemuffin> Yeah it could tezzie23, I know for a fact that my 6800 GS only works with the restricted nvidia drivers or the vesa drivers.
[05:58] <blankthemuffin> I'm having a bit of trouble with my Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 4965 AGN wireless running Ubuntu 7.10 on a Dell Inspiron 1520. It seems to drop out with this error: "wlan0: No ProbeResp from current AP 00:08:a1:a1:00:56 - assume out of range" every few minutes, following which it reconnects.
[05:58] <blind> crdlb: no, one line panel.
[05:58] <urkki> Hello
[05:58] <urkki> I had my firest crash with XCHat
[05:58] <blind> five extra icons takes up a bit more space.
[05:58] <TheNewAndy> bullgard4: I'm not sure I follow. I'm asking about evolution, and I don't know what my "entry" is.
[05:58] <urkki> sorry, first
[05:58] <tezzie23> blankthemuffin, but I couldnt even install the older version...
[05:59] <urkki> I added another server (reaper-chat), and next time I launched XChat it wouldn't launch
[05:59] <crdlb> blind: then use sonata's tray icon?
[05:59] <blankthemuffin> tezzie23, it's nothing too do with what version, mine fails with all the linux distros I have tried until I get the Nvidia drivers on there.
[06:00] <tezzie23> blankthemuffin, so u just gottaa get the drivers?  not a whole-nother card?
[06:00] <coolbhavi> I have been trying to apply a acpi kernel patch for my system PD 3ghz
[06:00] <blankthemuffin> tezzie23,  yeah, but it involves installing them via the command line.
[06:01] <blankthemuffin> That is if it's the problem.
[06:01] <tezzie23> blankthemuffin, ubuntu's on it doesnt matter?
[06:01] <coolbhavi> but i get the error Could not find file to patch in line 3
[06:01] <Werdna> TrustNoOne: had a go at changing the channel, etc - but link quality is still 4/70 according to iwconfig.
[06:01] <Werdna> signal -87dB, noise -91
[06:01] <manatatas>  /join #coder
[06:02] <blankthemuffin> tezzie23, not sure what you mean there, but mine has not worked on any version of ubuntu from 6.04 to 7.04
[06:02] <coolbhavi> I am doing this on /usr/src/linux-headers 2.6.22-14/drivers/acpi
[06:03] <TrustNoOne> Werdna, other than moving farther away (closer to the devices that work) i can only think that maybe its the driver not fully compatible with your card?
[06:03] <tezzie23> blankthemuffin, u said command line....  ubuntu's or windows?
[06:03] <whitehat> hello,ubuntu people I have debian insalled and was wondering how to swich over without useing a live cd?
[06:03] <whitehat> or a installation c
[06:03] <TrustNoOne> whitehat, network installation?
[06:04] <blankthemuffin> tezzie23, ubuntu's
[06:04] <blankthemuffin> you have too put a driver exe from the nvidia site on a flash disk or similar, then run it from the command line, you also need too have the internet on the PC in question.
[06:04] <blankthemuffin> by exe I mean executable, not an actual .exe file :P
[06:04] <whitehat> ok that works
[06:04] <Werdna> TrustNoOne: well, perhaps there's a better driver for it?
[06:04] <whitehat> but would it format my debian partian
[06:05] <TrustNoOne> Werdna, unfortunately i wouldnt be too sure
[06:05] <Werdna> TrustNoOne: I'm using whatever came with ubuntu. It's a fairly old laptop
[06:05] <tezzie23> blankthemuffin, so, start the ubuntu disc and then install the driver from the (sudo) command line?
[06:05] <whitehat> apache is messing up so I thought It'd go with ubuntu
[06:06] <whitehat> what is the ubuntu website?
[06:06] <Justin__> Is an athlon x2 1.8Ghz, 512MB ram, and 7200GS good enough for HD? (front/backend)
[06:06] <blankthemuffin> yeah that should work tezzie23
[06:06] <jmdc> when my machine wakes up after hibernating, network manager needs my password to reconnect to my wireless network. This always happens, even though I check the box that says to remember the password.
[06:06] <TrustNoOne> Werdna, i know for a fact that some cards just dont like to work right, like i have an intel card, it works perfect, and i have a wireless N card and it doesnt work unless the network is unencrypted... (using ndiswrapper) since the manufacture doesnt support linux (only windows) so unfortunately there are some limitations
[06:06] <Justin__> trying to figure out if my HD firewire problems are firewire related, or my computer sucking
[06:06] <cerberus__> Hello, does it possible to compile package from i386 to amd64 ?
[06:07] <blankthemuffin> or it might be easier too test it by switching too the vesa driver on the live CD, and then if that fixes it, install ubuntu, and then install the nvidia driver.
[06:07] <blankthemuffin> tezzie23, ^
[06:07] <tezzie23> blankthemuffin, how do I find da drivers, and how are your letters showin up in red when u talkin to me?
[06:07] <Werdna> TrustNoOne: mmm.. I wanted to use WPA on this, but it's an old-school wireless card that doesn't support WPA.
[06:07] <Werdna> It worked perfectly fine for the other network, though..
[06:09] <whitehat> how do you make it do network install can't find option on website
[06:09] <blankthemuffin> tezzie23, the letters show up in red because I had you name in the message that I sent.
[06:09] <tezzie23> blankthemuffin, is mine doin the same?
[06:09] <TrustNoOne> Werdna, yeah so if it works on the other network and it uses WPA, make sure its the same type of encryption (IE TKIP or TES) and using the same method of key IE passphrase or hex
[06:09] <blankthemuffin> tezzie23, yeah.
[06:10] <tezzie23> blankthemuffin, cool
[06:10] <TrustNoOne> Werdna, because WPA TKIP might not work and WPA AES might work so
[06:10] <whitehat> fine, I guess I'm stuck with debian
[06:10] <tezzie23> blankthemuffin, can others see it?
[06:10] <Werdna> TrustNoOne: It was unencrypted on the other one. Now I've been trying to use just WEP
[06:10] <bladinho> felips shiuahsaiu
[06:10] <felips> [bladinho]: :o)
[06:10] <TrustNoOne> Werdna, if it was unencrypted on the other one, make yours unencrypted just to "test" it, if it works perfectly, you know its the encryption that is throwing you off
[06:11] <jmdc> cerberus__: if you have a i386 package, you probably just have the binary. If you want to compile, you need to get the source package instead, but you probably just want to get the amd64 package that's already compiled
[06:11] <Werdna> TrustNoOne: moment
[06:11] <tezzie23> blankthemuffin, brb... please still be here
[06:11] <gan>  i am getting error , when i run the livecd through qemu " unable to find a medium containing live filesystem "
[06:13] <blankthemuffin> tezzie23, http://www.uluga.ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=785996&postcount=2  < this is probably the best way for you too get it working.
[06:13] <cerberus__> jmdc: i have .deb file does it possible to convert the package from i386 to amd64 ?

[06:52] <Arcor> Can anyone help me out with a problem i have? I activated some NVidia drivers and now when i boot into Ubuntu, my monitor goes black and displays a message saying "Out of Range 68.6 / 85 hz"
[06:53] <ere4si> Arcor, how did you install the drivers?
[06:54] <dimitris82> hi all
[06:54] <Lycade> My usb devices quit working. Mouse, external hard drive, and flash drives. They don't supply any power to these devices.
[06:54] <demenor> tcl to ubuntu, link please
[06:55] <dimitris82> i try from 5.10 to Edgy with aptitude update && aptitude upgrade
[06:55] <blankthemuffin> Arcor, sounds like your using a res that's too high for your monitor, you'll have too edit your conf file I think, can you get too a tty/?
[06:55] <jmdc> I am looking for the info documentation for the command ls. Currently info ls gives exactly the same information as man ls
[06:56] <dimitris82> i found a message when was in config files .. Installing new version of config file /etc/evms.conf ...

[06:59] <GCToday> Hello all
[06:59] <Lycade> Is there a way to turn my usb back on?
[07:01] <sacamano> Hi. I'm running Ubuntu, and I've got a question about my external HD. Occasionally, every few hours or so, my external hd will temporarily unmount. If I click on the volume, it remounts no problem. Is this a problem? I ask because I'm wary, my internal HD died this weekend and I'd rather not lose any more data.
[07:01] <jga23> how do I add something to the main menu?  where do I put the .desktop file?
[07:01] <sacamano> My internal hd had been locking up like after an hour previously for about a month and I just didn't realize it was the disc going, so I want to make sure it's not my external hd dying.
[07:02] <Arcor> sorry, went AFK,  Blank and eres4si. I installed them by trying to set up my desktop, and i clicked on the Desktop Effects, set it to Normal instead of none.
[07:02] <Arcor> It asked if i wanted to enable them, and told me for it to take effect i'd need to reboot
[07:02] <basem> #linuxac
[07:03] <Arcor> I rebooted, and it now just gives me that. My resolution is set to 1280x1024, could enabling those drivers change it to something my monitor couldn't handle?
[07:04] <Arcor> my graphics card is a Geforce 6200 LE, if that helps.
[07:04] <cyberfin> I wonder if anyone can help me with this: I'm installing Kino 1.3.0 on gutsy amd64 and I get this message when entering "sudo make install": make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/cyberfin/Desktop/kino-1.3.0/ffmpeg'         make: *** [install-recursive] Error 1
[07:04] <ere4si> Arcor, the restricted drivers manager should set that up right
[07:05] <rabiddachshund> I'm having a problem with Apache, but ##apache is dead. Every time I try to upload something it changes the permission and won't let me view it in the browser. What permission should my files have?
[07:05] <LimCore> what do you use to check if the hardware you want to buy will work in linux?
[07:05] <kraant> sacamano: I think the external hardrive is going into sleep mode (which IIRC) unmounts the disk.
[07:05] <k0> hey guys i was wondering if any1 else is getting the same problem, it seems with gnome and xgl my box seems to freeze often with the mouse operational any1 else getting these? and can any1 point me to where i can see the logs to the crash's

[07:09] <Arcor> ere4si, i'm not sure if that's what you mean, but all that i did was click Yes to activate the drivers, i didn't enter any sort of manager window to configure it.
[07:10] <ere4si> Arcor, I'm talking about the restricted drivers manager from the menu - not from desktop effects

[07:12] <GCToday> I have seen the linux magazine with the ditro of DVD of ubuntu, I would like to install ubuntu but only have cd writer and a an older 500mhz celeron system which within the week will have 256mb of ram. Will I be able to install unbuntu on that system?
[07:13] <Faerris> Bit of an odd question for this room, but any mod_rewrite gurus around? I'm having a horrible time trying to redirect any instance of www to the non-www version of my site.

[07:16] <kkathman> greetings!  Im about to get a monster system, core2duo, 3gb memory and the works, and wondered if anyone has had any problems with ubuntu on such a machine?
[07:16] <Johnuah> my screen is 16:9 , does it matter
[07:16] <GCToday> I have a cd burner on this machine but it has windows on it.  I have previously been unable to write a cd that will boot on the other machine as an iso. Why did that happen?
[07:17] <phenom> Guys, what is the name of the file you have to add a line to to get firestarters rules to initiate at boot, without running firestarter as a service?
[07:17] <jmdc> GCToday: you might have put the iso file itself on the cd

[08:24] <speedhunt3r> Hi, what could be the problem if Ubuntu loads unexpectedly slow and seems like it's just "idle" for like 5-10 seconds right after I login? It loads the desktop extremely slowly, and anything opened from the panels opens extremely slowly also... However, everything on the desktop opens as it suppose to
[08:24] <[chr0n0s]> speedhunt3r, what processor you have in your box?
[08:25] <speedhunt3r> amd 64 3600
[08:25] <odder> elmoboy: mm... I had such problem some time ago, maybe you've got your PAM broken, as I had?
[08:25] <bod_> Cew27, perhaps try running the script that came in the tarball
[08:25] <elmoboy> odder how do i fix that up
[08:26] <speedhunt3r> [chr0n0s], i had this problem before also...it sort of "fixed" itself I don't remember how... one time i loged on and everything was okay from there on, and now it's back to slowing down.
[08:26] <odder> elmoboy: that's a hard question, dunno, maybe try dpkg -reconfigure?
[08:27] <odder> elmoboy: but first read your system logs
[08:27] <bod_> speedhunt3r, checked    top       to see if anything is eatcing cpu    maybe look at        dmesg     to see if anything failed to load correctly
[08:27] <elmoboy> odder i've read trhe logs. doesnt say anything about authentication failure or nothing like that
[08:27] <elmoboy> this is soo strange
[08:28] <bod_> elmoboy,   try logging in through single user mode,. to see detailed errors?

[08:35] <ubotu> dimitris82: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[08:35] <odder> skillz: mm.. maybe you want to move it beetween your tray icons? if so, I dunno how to help you

[08:36] <skillz> does anyone else know it was between my try icons to begin with, then i moved it, but now i cant move it back
[08:36] <bod_> skillz, remove it, then add it again,. you should be able to move it if you add it,.,. it seems the original default one is hard to move
[08:36] <dimitris82> any ideas?
[08:36] <bod_> skillz, make sure its not locked to panel
[08:38] <dee_> argh this is giving me a headache. i dont know wot could be wrong
[08:38] <dee_> i dont know why it keeps saying Access Denied
[08:38] <skillz> bod_ : its not locked to panel.. i have removed and re-aded it
[08:38] <skillz> but i still can get it
[08:38] <skillz> in between
[08:38] <skillz> my tray icons
[08:38] <skillz> :(
[08:38] <stefano> any anjuta users here?
[08:38] <bod_> skillz, tried movin the icons not the tima applet?
[08:38] <odder> skillz: are you sure it *is* possible?
[08:39] <ere4si> dimitris82, did you update the os first?
[08:39] <skillz> i tried moveing the icons, but the "move" button is not highlighted.. or not available on some icons
[08:39] <odder> I mean, to move the clock between your tray icons (it's one applet afaik)
[08:39] <dimitris82> ere4si, yes i did aptitude update then upgrade and now dist-upgrade
[08:39] <skillz> afaik?
[08:39] <skillz> whats that
[08:39] <dimitris82> ere4si, now i am trying with synaptic to fix broken is that ok ?
[08:39] <odder> skillz: afaik=as far as I know
[08:40] <dimitris82> i choose manually one-by-one to fix broken with reinstall them
[08:40] <bod_> odder, it has to be writtensomewhere in some file where it is on the bar,. so it has to be possible to move it
[08:40] <dimitris82> ere4si,  i think it removes the old ones and upgrade to new ver.
[08:41] <dimitris82> ere4si, also i dont have restart yet
[08:41] <skillz> bod_: yeh, i think u must be right.. do u know which or what or how to edit this?
[08:41] <ere4si> dimitris82, if you upgraded then the repos are changed
[08:41] <odder> bod_: never heard of that, dunno then
[08:41] <bod_> skillz, i no a way, but its messy
[08:41] <bod_> odder, well,. think about it,. it has to be specified somewhere,.,.no? ;~)
[08:41] <skillz> umm.. let me hear it.. if its realy messy
[08:41] <dimitris82> ere4si, i am trying to breezy to edgy.. because i cannot install any with apt-get
[08:42] <skillz> ill just live with it
[08:42] <bod_> skillz, add loadsa usless icons to the bar, leaving a big space where u want the clock,. then add the clock and remove other icons
[08:42] <ere4si> dimitris82, you need to go one os at a time - breezy dapper edgy...
[08:43] <dimitris82> ere4si, you mean first to dapper then to edgy ?
[08:43] <dimitris82> :O
[08:43] <ere4si> dimitris82, yep
[08:43] <dimitris82> ere4si, can i change now repos to dapper ?
[08:44] <odder> bod_: I mean, do you really can put the time applet into your tray, e.g. between amarok and pidgin icons (that's how I've understood skillz's problem)
[08:44] <bod_> odder, im gonna try to do it on my machine,.,.hang on
[08:44] <ere4si> dimitris82, worth a try but I have never done anything similar
[08:44] <dimitris82> ere4si, i have backup my server
[08:44] <ere4si> k
[08:44] <dimitris82> ere4si, or try to edgy ?
[08:45] <skillz> odder: yes ur right.. thats my problem
[08:45] <dimitris82> ere4si, with reinstallation from synaptic ?
[08:45] <ere4si> dimitris82, one at a time - dapper then edgy
[08:45] <dimitris82> ere4si, ok i got it :)
[08:45] <dimitris82> ere4si, thnx for your help i will try now ;)
[08:46] <skillz> odder, and bod_ no worries - ill jsut get used to it.. its one of those things...

[08:47] <bod_> oh, bugger,.,. i accidently removed my name from the bar,.,.anyone no the name of the applet so i can put it back?
[08:48] <skillz> lol..... im new to this bod_
[08:48] <skillz> i dunno, im sorry
[08:48] <skillz> if its a lot of hassel
[08:48] <skillz> dont worry about it
[08:48] <geirha> skillz, bod_: the applets are probably locked in place, right click them and unlock them, then you can move them with the middle-button
[08:48] <bod_> skillz, ive done it,.,. right click on everything and make sure nothing is locked to panel,. then u should be able to select move on the clock, then move it
[08:48] <skillz> geirha, they are not locked
[08:48] <bod_> geirha, how do i et my username back on there?
[08:49] <skillz> bod_ YAY!!!!!!!

[08:51] <dee_> i just dont understand why its rejecting my credentials
[08:51] <dee_> keeps giving me the Access Denied
[08:51] <dee_> but its correct!!
[08:52] <bazhang> dee_: what is the issue please
[08:52] <khalood> I have windows xp (on drive C ) + other drives  + ubuntu .. I want to format drive C and re-install windows ... and remove ubuntu .. how to do it ?
[08:52] <khalood> can anyone help me
[08:52] <bazhang> khalood: are you going to reinstall ubuntu at some point?
[08:52] <ere4si> khalood, a format is the easiest way to remove ubuntu
[08:52] <khalood> bazhang:  yes after reinstalling window
[08:53] <genuser> is there a history of cat listed in ubuntu somewhere?
[08:53] <khalood> ere4si: how to do it from windows ?
[08:53] <khalood> ere4si:  and release the control of my MBR from grub
[08:53] <ere4si> khalood, the windows cd will format the partition
[08:54] <genuser> is there a history of cat listed in ubuntu somewhere?
[08:54] <khalood> ere4si: it will format C only
[08:54] <ere4si> khalood, and rewrite the mbr
[08:54] <tarelerulz> Is there a way to put meta data on say  movies you rip from your own dvd.  The same why meta tags on songs that have artist and so on ?
[08:54] <khalood> ere4si:  because I have other drives with data
[08:55] <ere4si> khalood, then you can use gparted from the live cd menu to format the ubuntu partition
[08:55] <khalood> C: ( windows , (D:,E:,F:) << data ...Ext3(ubuntu)
[08:55] <ere4si> khalood, check the partition label first
[08:55] <khalood> ere4si:  ok but this can be done later after reinstalling widnows
[08:56] <ere4si> khalood, yep
[08:56] <genuser> is there a history of cat listed in ubuntu somewhere?
[08:56] <khalood> ere4si: ok , so , I can now format dirve C , reinstall windows in it ,, then remove ubuntu using live cd ?
[08:56] <ere4si> khalood, reinstalling windows will overwrite the mbr
[08:56] <ere4si> khalood, yep
[08:56] <bazhang> genuser: what are you trying to do?
[08:56] <khalood> ere4si: ok i'll do it
[08:56] <odder> genuser: do you mean cat, the programme?
[08:57] <genuser> i want to get my past list of cat back on my terminal.
[08:57] <khalood> thanks
[08:57] <Ububegin> how do i run a *Makefile* ...
[08:57] <ere4si> khalood, be careful and it will be ok
[08:57] <odder> ubuntulog: try 'make'
[08:57] <cyril__> hi!
[08:57] <cyril__> i've trouble connecting to the web
[08:57] <odder> genuser: did you try to read your bash-history file?
[08:58] <xgreenoughx> Hi i just installed the newest version of ubuntu and i ive goten all my drivers to work except my wireless NIC can anyone help? IM dual boooted with Windows XP.
[08:58] <cyril__> irc works but not the www, any idea?
[08:58] <prince_jammys> genuser: history | grep cat  will show you some entries
[08:58] <genuser> odder, yeah but the command entered for cat isn't there.
[08:58] <genuser> odder,  sorry not the command but the list that cat brought from the text.
[08:58] <xgreenoughx> Hi i just installed the newest version of ubuntu and i ive goten all my drivers to work except my wireless NIC can anyone help? IM dual boooted with Windows XP.
[08:59] <bazhang> xgreenoughx: what card please
[08:59] <bod_> hey gguys, got a slight issue,. i cant mount my ntfs hard drive because it says an external device was not safely removed when i shutdown windows,. how can i forcefully mount thid drive?
[08:59] <xgreenoughx> Broadcom WLAN
[08:59] <bod_> thid=the
[08:59] <bazhang> xgreenoughx: the broadcom 43xx?
[08:59] <xgreenoughx> 4318
[08:59] <odder> bod_: mount /your/drive /your/folder doesn't work?
[09:00] <dee_> this is such a noob question but
[09:00] <genuser> prince_jammys, if i opened a text from cat, i was just wondering if that text is ever recorded in the bash history or somewhere besides the file that it grabbed it from?
[09:00] <bazhang> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs/Driver/Broadcom43xx here is a wiki for that card xgreenoughx
[09:00] <bod_> odder, dunno, i have only tried double clicking on it in nautilus,.,.
[09:00] <dee_> when ppl say 'comment out' does that mean remove the # infront of the word? or place # infront of the word?
[09:00] <xgreenoughx> thanks
[09:00] <bazhang> dee place in front of
[09:00] <prince_jammys> genuser: i see. i don't know. i doubt it.
[09:00] <dee_> ok cool
[09:01] <bod_> odder, how can i find out the /my/drive    path name?
[09:01] <genuser> would anybody else have an idea or is it never recorded in history?
[09:01] <odder> genuser: as far as I can read from wikipedia, it's not recorder in your bash history
[09:01] <odder> genuser: cat just prints you a file on your terminal, and that's all
[09:02] <odder> *recorded
[09:02] <genuser> odder, ok thanks.
[09:02] <bazhang> cat is nice together with pipe and pastebinit ;]
[09:02] <sCOTTo> hey is there anyone here who could help me get my ubuntu box to see my windows server 2003 box?
[09:03] <odder> bod_: try 'mount' and 'fdisk -l'

[09:05] <ubotu> mcystems: The Alternate CD is a classical text-mode install CD. It supports a wider range of hardware than the !LiveCD, and can also be used as an upgrade CD.  Look for the alternate checkbox on the Ubuntu download page - See also !minimal
[09:05] <bod_> mcystems, alternate installer
[09:05] <odder> bod_: you should probably run fdisk -l as a superuser, or using sudo, there's a great tutorial on the Web: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/mountlinux
[09:05] <mcystems> thx
[09:05] <bod_> ty odder,.,. ;~)
[09:05] <erpo> Background info: When I run the "Screen and Graphics" tool to change my screen resolution to 640x480, it allows me to select a refresh rate of 52 Hz or 56Hz. Both of these are bogus since I'm using the LCD panel in a laptop. When I select 56Hz, it works as expected. When I select 52Hz, the screen appears stretched vertically. The top edge of the screen is where it should be, but the bottom 1/4 of the desktop has been stretched off of the bott
[09:05] <erpo> om of the display panel.
[09:05] <erpo> The problem: When I run StarCraft in wine, it resizes the display to 640x480 but it chooses the 52Hz option apparently, because the display appears stretched and I can't see the bottom of the game's interface.
[09:06] <erpo> How can I force StarCraft to choose the proper video mode?
[09:06] <_KAMI_> Hi!
[09:06] <Dotnetpc> when I go to sytem/sound and click on the test button, I get this error = audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink: Could not open resource for writing.
[09:06] <bod_> odder, ok,. its   /dev/hda1
[09:06] <odder> !hi | _KAMI_
[09:06] <ubotu> _KAMI_: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[09:06] <mcystems> thank you ubotu, bod_
[09:06] <Squawk> erpo, have a look in xorg.conf and see if there is a section showing possible refresh rates. It may be that you can comment out the 52hz option
[09:06] <neeto> On xfce, I made the mistake of re-organizing the menu myself, is there somewhere where I can get the default menu.xml file?
[09:06] <mcystems> bye
[09:07] <_KAMI_> I found that IcedTea 7 crashes when I want to surf to Java ebabled webpage
[09:07] <erpo> Squawk: There are no modelines in xorg.conf. It's all detected dynamically.
[09:07] <_KAMI_> I am using 8.04 alpha / 64 bit
[09:07] <Squawk> erpo, ah ok, figured it might be in combo with resolution
[09:07] <_KAMI_> Do we have bugreport about it?
[09:07] <odder> bod_: great, then follow the tutorial from psychocats and enjoy the access to your ntfs partition ;>

[09:08] <bod_> odder, the tuto is for mounting an ext3 partition as data storage
[09:08] <_KAMI_> ubotu I know but I didn't know about +1 channel
[09:08] <icesword_> _KAMI_, #ubuntu+1

[09:09] <_KAMI_> okok
[09:09] <_KAMI_> thx
[09:09] <dgjones> _KAMI_, ubotu is just a bot, its just an info message to let you know about the other channel
[09:09] <bod_> _KAMI_, ubotu is abot
[09:09] <Ububegin> can u remote access one ubuntu pc from another
[09:09] <odder> bod_: you'd need to mkdir a folder and and write something like 'sudo mount /dev/hda1 /path/to/yourfolder'
[09:09] <bod_> Ububegin, yes
[09:09] <Ububegin> like in windows , like that :?
[09:09] <Ububegin> bod_ : what is it called in Ubuntu
[09:09] <odder> Ububegin: yes, that's what's ssh designed for, for instance
[09:10] <bod_> odder, i dont understand,. why do i need to make a directory on my ntfs drive?
[09:10] <bod_> Ububegin, i believe a vnc client ,.,.but that might be something entirely different,,.,. there is one however pre installed on ubuntu 7.10
[09:10] <Ububegin> odder: but ssh allows GUI also.. or just the termimal
[09:10] <odder> bod_: not on your ntfs drive, on your / or /home, to have an access through nautilus, for example
[09:11] <odder> Ububegin: there *is* a possibility to use X through ssh connection. I haven't used it, though.
[09:11] <erpo> Ububegin: You almost certainly want vnc.
[09:11] <fromnowhere> hey anybody has idea how to export the DISPLAY from an SSH server to ur comp
[09:11] <bod_> odder, would    ntfs-3g   be easier?
[09:12] <sergevn> Where is the "/home/*/Desktop"
[09:12] <sergevn> set
[09:12] <erpo> fromnowhere: ssh -X destination.host
[09:12] <erpo> fromnowhere: Then just run applications and they will show up on your local screen.
[09:12] <legend2440> Dotnetpc: if youopen system>preferences>sound>devices and select oss do you get sound?
[09:12] <bod_> sergevn, ??? /home/sergevn/Desktop
[09:12] <Ububegin> erpo: this one.. *krdc is an KDE graphical client for the rfb protocol, used by VNC*
[09:12] <dee_> ps -x
[09:13] <sergevn> bod_: yes
[09:13] <erpo> Ububegin: That's the one I use.
[09:13] <bod_> sergevn, i dont understand your question
[09:13] <odder> bod_: I have never used that, I always use mount to gain access to my windows partitions, and everything works great
[09:13] <lancerocke> Please help. I followed countless guides to install flash player plugin on firefox ubuntu x64 and nothing works
[09:14] <sergevn> bod_: in home folder, you have the Desktop folder. the mapping to Desktop is gone
[09:14] <sergevn> bod_: if i view my gnome desktop, i see contents of my home dir and not my Desktop
[09:14] <odder> lancerocke: there are huge problems with flash on 64-bit ubuntu, you'd need to install 32-bit firefox version afaik
[09:14] <bod_> odder, but im not understanding why i have to make a folder?? what command do you use?
[09:14] <odder> bod_: mkdir
[09:15] <bod_> sergevn, oh cool,.,. i dunno,. il have a uick look,. but if u find out, can u let me no plz? ;~)
[09:15] <bod_> odder,   mkdir what?
[09:15] <lancerocke> odder: how do i do that?
[09:16] <odder> lancerocke: see http://tinyurl.com/ys6fod
[09:16] <bod_> odder, did you get my pm reply?
[09:17] <bod_> sergevn, i had a look but i have no idea im afraid
[09:17] <Ububegin> erpo: must the host computer also run this software.. *Connection failed. No server running at the given address and port.*
[09:18] <fromnowhere> erpo i don't have that permission i think ..it says permission denied .I think some setting have to be changed on my side
[09:19] <erpo> Ububegin: The host server needs to run a VNC server. You need to run a VNC client. What operating system is the host computer running?
[09:19] <erpo> fromnowhere: Read up on the -X option in the ssh man page. It will tell you about common pitfalls.

[09:22] <AdvoWork> Hi there, im trying to make a connection from outside to inside my server on a certain port. I know the server is listening on that port but it wont connect, so i assume its a firewall issue. Any ideas how I can find out whats going on?
[09:23] <oddalot> i don't know
[09:23] <erpo> Ububegin: You probably should read up on how VNC works. If you're using Ubuntu, your VNC server is probably called vino.
[09:24] <Ububegin> erpo: thanks dude, sorry for the trouble.. Will read it up now...

[09:26] <makkan> Hi, I have an issue that I can't figure out. I'm currently trying to run a flavour of ubuntu from a CF-disk (CF>IDE bridge) and I keep getting problems with the disk, such as read/write errors. The odd thing is that I ran a similar system last weekend without any problems at all. The only difference between the two systems is that instead of using ext3 like the working system i now use ext2 (because it is supposed to save my CF-card from unecssary writes).
[09:26] <bazhang> chafe what exact card and how did you install driver and which one did you install please
[09:26] <oddalot> system-preferences-advanced desktop effects
[09:27] <bazhang> makkan: what flavour are you trying to run
[09:27] <chafe> bazhang, nvidia installed with ubuntu screen and graphics gui manager extravaganza
[09:27] <oboy03> oddalot: under desktop cube?
[09:28] <bazhang> chafe when did you start having this problem or has it always existed
[09:28] <oddalot> you are trying to make what 3d?
[09:28] <chafe> bazhang, its new, i made changes to grub with ubuntu? grub configurator gui program
[09:28] <oboy03> the windows
[09:28] <oboy03> not the desktop
[09:28] <chafe> all i did was change colors etc
[09:28] <oddalot> normally, or only on the cube?
[09:28] <oboy03> only on cube
[09:29] <martiini> has anyone samba working in kde4? windows network browsing is not enabled by default in kubuntu-kde4. Ive installed all samba packages but it stil doesnt work
[09:29] <oddalot> hmmm
[09:29] <oddalot> forgot how i did it
[09:29] <oddalot> it's in there somewhere
[09:29] <oboy03> i got the link but its dead
[09:29] <bazhang> change colors and grub? after that it failed to work chafe?
[09:29] <oddalot> or you have to install another package
[09:29] <oboy03> well i read that its a separate package
[09:29] <chafe> bazhang, yea, using ubuntu gui configurator
[09:30] <bazhang> chafe would you mind pastebinning your xorg.conf please?
[09:30] <neo_> i deleted my data from my usb hard disk ,.is there any way to recover it     fromat of partition was NTFS
[09:31] <chafe> bazhang, this is before xorg loads at all
[09:31] <chafe> i made changes to menu.lst brb
[09:31] <makkan> bazhang : fluxbuntu

[09:32] <bazhang> chafe what changes did you make to grub? and why?
[09:32] <penper> hi, I wonder if there's a desktop recording application similar to recordmydesktop, but don't encode the image data until the recording is over? I know it'll take a lot of temporary disk space but my computer is so slow and I'm about to record a realtime graphics application
[09:33] <macsim> il y a un chef en javascript ici ?
[09:33] <macsim> salut à tous au fait
[09:34] <bazhang> !fr | macsim
[09:34] <ubotu> macsim: Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[09:34] <macsim> sorry :/
[09:34] <stefano> is anyone here using anjuta (to any extend)?

[09:38] <bod_> ;~)
[09:41] <fotoflo> Hey all, im doing a little survey about email security, I wonder if anyone here could spare 2 minutes to take it (literally, 2 minutes ¨C its just 4 questions!)
[09:41] <fotoflo> http://www.polldaddy.com/s/9E216AFBB5406B1B/
[09:41] <makkan> bazhang: I've been looking around for info on what filesystem to use with a CF-card but answers vary alot. Also I should mention that the PC I'm trying to install it to is an old 233 MHz Laptop
[09:43] <bazhang> makkan the only comparable thing I can think of is the eeepc; they have a wiki on hot to get that going--not sure if that is helpful or not
[09:44] <smokeyd> hey people. if I grep some text is there a way to only fetch the unique matches from the grep output?
[09:44] <smokeyd> a command I can pipe the grep output to or something?
[09:45] <Ububegin> bye bye and i'm off for the weekend...
[09:45] <atlef> happy easter
[09:45] <Seveas> atlef, you're 9 days early :)
[09:46] <makkan> bazhang : thanks I'll have a look there, funny thing since I'm prepping the laptop to act sort of like the eeePC (except it's really old)
[09:46] <atlef> well
[09:46] <atlef> whatever
[09:46] <atlef> :-)
[09:46] <atlef> well been up for 26 hours straight so
[09:46] <bazhang> makkan: they have a channel #eeepc and the wiki and webpage is linked in the topic
[09:47] <atlef> cleaning upp the mess i made of the updates
[09:47] <ArthurArchnix> On the alternate cd, when I press F6 to get other boot options, what do I type to get an expert install? Ala debian method?
[09:48] <Seveas> ArthurArchnix, you need the alternate cd for that
[09:48] <atlef> ArthurArchnix:  what happens if you select text mode http://ubuntulite.tuxfamily.org/files/pictures/alternateinstall.gif
[09:49] <atlef> or is that not lowtech enough
[09:50] <ArthurArchnix> Seveas: atlef Yea, got the alternate cd. I booted with the option 'expert', we'll see if it's any different. Supposedly there's a method to enable package selection
[09:50] <atlef> hmm
[09:50] <atlef> yes, i remember, but that is about it
[09:51] <popey> penper: record my desktop does exactly that, it doesn't encode until after recording is finished
[09:53] <smokeyd> ok, found it myself.
[09:53] <smokeyd> sort -u
[09:54] <smokeyd> nice: grep -o -e "some[a-z]*patterm"|sort -u

[09:58] <ArthurArchnix> well, it's installing the base system now, so I guess this is not the expert install
[10:00] <morpheus> morning folks
[10:00] <n0ll> morning...
[10:00] <morpheus> whats the best server monitoring package for ubuntu? i need to monitor stuff like cpu load and used ram??
[10:01] <morpheus> from a remote server
[10:03] <portamenteff> Hi folks
[10:03] <portamenteff> I have a little problem with my grapics.
[10:05] <atlef> hello
[10:05] <portamenteff> what's up atlef?
[10:05] <atlef> not much at the moment
[10:05] <Seveas> morpheus, nagios
[10:06] <portamenteff> my graphics act up when I enable compiz
[10:06] <portamenteff> with ATI driver
[10:07] <portamenteff> anyone know a posible workaround or hack?
[10:07] <menganito> hey ç
[10:07] <menganito> someone nows about php ?
[10:07] <dimitris82> hi again
[10:07] <portamenteff> menganito: a little.
[10:07]  * Xp-Away (Q-Stats : on AHA () ... : hat 0 mal Op , 0 mal Voice , 0 mal BAN , 0 mal Master , 0 mal Owner und 0 mal Topic )
[10:08] <portamenteff> got the manual right here.
[10:08] <menganito> no need manual thx
[10:08] <menganito> some issues or dudes
[10:08] <portamenteff> manuals will help sometimes
[10:08] <morpheus> Seveas: is it part of the repo's? I'm running lamp server, some of the users PC's are hitting 100% CPU, which is strange because the page is PHP and I thought thats all server side proccessing so I need to see what the server is up to
[10:08] <dimitris82> i made it with apt-get update && upgrade && dist-upgrade ( i remove my running kernel i couldnt do it with other way), (from breezy to dapper) now i have a hp proliant ml370 which kernel to install ?
[10:09] <dimitris82> i show on synaptic linux-image=26-15-23-386 and a server edition
[10:09] <portamenteff> menganito: got a URL for me?
[10:10] <jacobian_> why does evince take over the audio device?
[10:10] <Seveas> morpheus, it is but it won't show you which php page is acting up
[10:10] <pumatertion> salut
[10:10] <jacobian_> seems like a PDF viewer wouldn't even use the audio device...
[10:10] <portamenteff> I would try compiling and installing Apache W/PHP manually then run the same page in it.
[10:11] <morpheus> seveas: it's more to see if the server is maxxing out trying to deliver the pages or if I've got a network issue
[10:11] <Seveas> morpheus, that it can help you with
[10:11] <Seveas> morpheus, nagios is for monitoring/alerting, to keep an eye on trends you could use cacti
[10:11] <portamenteff> http://www.apache.org/  download the source.
[10:11] <pumatertion> need help with mount. the documentation says, that ubuntu automounts an external harddrive. but if i plug it in during a running system i istn mounted. but if i boot with it its automounted. what do i have do to, that it automounts on "hotplug"?
[10:12] <morpheus> seveas: cheers, I'll give it a blasd
[10:12] <Shock> any idea when firefox 3.0b4 will hit gutsy backports?

[10:12] <edgy> Hi, I have a laptop (192.168.1.66) and a PC (192.168.1.65) connected via a router to the internet but when I do nmap -sP 192.168.0.0/24, I get (6 hosts up), where are they came from!!!
[10:14] <pumatertion> no idea?
[10:14] <smokeyd> hey people. mv "somedir" "someotherdir" does that remove a file inside somedir as soon as it is copied to someotherdir or does it only start removing somedir after everything has been copied to someotherdir?
[10:16] <pajamian> smokeyd: if the two directories are on the same filesystem it simply changes the location of the directory entry and doesn't touch anything inside it.
[10:16] <erUSUL> edgy: well 2 + router are 3 not 6 that's for sure...
[10:16] <portamenteff> no. pumatertion. "cut somedir somotherdir" will do what you say.
[10:16] <smokeyd> pajamian: they are on different filesystems
[10:17] <stefano> smokeyd, if the directories are on other filesystem the journaling of your file system kicks in i think
[10:17] <edgy> erUSUL: the point is it's from a different network! 0.0/24 not 1.0/24
[10:17] <pumatertion> portaenteff, i dont need a copy command. i need a mount help =)
[10:18] <portamenteff> the other filesystem will be undr "media" of the one your system is in"
[10:18] <stefano> smokeyd, if you want to know what happens if you have a power surge while copying a large file: if you have ext3 and journaling enabled your files are relatively safe
[10:18] <smokeyd> stefano:  ok, but does mv give the remove command only after everything has been copied to the new filesystem or does it give the remove command as soon as a single file is copied to the new filesystem
[10:18] <rybotsky> does anyone know how to install lucas deskoplet
[10:18] <portamenteff> ext3 creates a tmp of all transfers
[10:19] <pajamian> smokeyd: in that case I'm not sure.  I think it does one file at a time, but not sure.
[10:19] <portamenteff> your ok.
[10:19] <stefano> smokeyd, if you copy a folder with a number of files it does mv for every single file, that is called recursion and it means that every file is deleted as soon as the copying is finishend
[10:19] <portamenteff> look in tmp I think
[10:19] <smokeyd> the thing is, my mv command takes a long time (many files) and I want to know if the original dir still contains all files untill the mv command was completed or if gradually files start disappearing from the original dir
[10:19] <portamenteff> "/tmp"
[10:20] <smokeyd> ok portamenteff
[10:20] <stefano> smokeyd, just do cp instead of mv, that way you are certain that if anything goes wrong, no data will be lost
[10:20] <smokeyd> stefano: :) that is the easy way indeed
[10:20] <smokeyd> could have though of that myself
[10:20] <rybotsky> help
[10:20] <portamenteff> oh you mean if a reboot uccurs, or a crash. try it out. look in "/tmp" it's usually where i find my lost files
[10:20] <stefano> smokeyd, if anything goes wrong, have a look into the directory lost+found on the mount point directory of your drive. but normally that is not nessecarry
[10:21] <rybotsky> does anyone have lukas deskoplet
[10:21] <portamenteff> rybotsky: no but it sounds cool. :)
[10:22] <smokeyd> as far as I can see now, all files are kept in the original dir untill mv completed copying everything to the new dir
[10:22] <smokeyd> so mv is also pretty safe
[10:22] <pajamian> it would be safe regardless
[10:23] <portamenteff> i think mv -r removes them as they go if i remember. i could be wrong.
[10:23] <rybotsky> does anyone know how to get the program bar across the bottom of the screen  like in mac os
[10:24] <portamenteff> rybotsky: i got that in Kubuntu but not gnome.
[10:24] <kallepersson> Hi, is the standard GNOME keyring called "login"
[10:24] <kallepersson> ?
[10:24] <portamenteff> it may be possible though.
[10:24] <rybotsky> what is it called
[10:24] <kallepersson> I seem unable to access mine
[10:24] <kallepersson> even though I have logged in
[10:25] <rybotsky> portamenteff  what is it called
[10:26] <portamenteff> "panels" are you using gnome?
[10:26] <rybotsky> ya  i think
[10:26] <portamenteff> you can configure and shape and size the panels
[10:26] <rybotsky> not panels
[10:26] <portamenteff> is the button at the bottom right corner have a "K"?
[10:26] <rybotsky> u know the  thing at the bottom of the screen in mac os x
[10:27] <portamenteff> if not your using gnome
[10:27] <Brass-Kazoo> rybotsky, there are a number of how-tos on the forum to get a macos-like toolbar
[10:27] <rybotsky> that has the program shortcuts on it
[10:27] <portamenteff> Yes rybotsky.
[10:27] <rybotsky> how do u get it
[10:28] <portamenteff> let me check the gui. i'll find it.
[10:28] <rybotsky> k thnx
[10:29] <Brass-Kazoo> rybotsky, try right-clicking on the existing menubar/toolbar and looking at the toolbar properties
[10:29] <setkeh> heya guys any one here know why my shout cast server wont start in ubuntu 7.10 server it keeps saying "no such file or directory" and yes i spellt the file name right
[10:29] <Brass-Kazoo> (i'm not using gnome so I'm going from memory)
[10:30] <portamenteff> rybotsky: i can't seem to find the panel manger. i'll get back on that. I KNOW you can change the shape and size of panels though.
[10:30] <smokeyd> hey people. Another question. Is it not allowed to execute bash scripts in nfs mounted directories?
[10:31] <smokeyd> portamenteff, rybotsky: right click on the panel and choose "properties"
[10:31] <smokeyd> I think
[10:31] <smokeyd> I am running Xubuntu now though, so I can't check
[10:32] <portamenteff> duh. lol
[10:32] <portamenteff> i should have known
[10:32] <Brass-Kazoo> heh
[10:32] <Brass-Kazoo> thats what I said!
[10:33] <smokeyd> :)
[10:33] <sebrock> should it be possible to restrict directories to UserAliases in proftpd? or does it have to be a system user?
[10:33] <portamenteff> it just worked in gnome too though.
[10:34] <smokeyd> sebrock: not the answer you want, but i'll say it anyway: don't use ftp. it is unsafe. Rather use sftp (ssh file transfer). Abouth your question, I don't know, sorry
[10:35] <pajamian> ftpd is also a PITA to get working properly behind a firewall or NAT
[10:35] <michael__> hello
[10:36] <michael__> in my dmesg i get this text:
[10:36] <michael__> x88[0]: Your board isn't known (yet) to the driver.  You can
[10:36] <portamenteff> your talking about transfering files between users on one system?
[10:36] <michael__> cx88[0]: try to pick one of the existing card configs vi
[10:36] <michael__> cx88[0]: card=<n> insmod option.  Updating to the latest
[10:36] <michael__> anyone know what insmod is?
[10:36] <michael__> or how to select it?
[10:36] <michael__> coz i see my card in the list
[10:39] <portamenteff> insmod is to insert modules into the kernel. i don't know it well enough to help.
[10:39] <sebrock> smokeyd: hehe, FTP is way faster than sftp and is a more common standard than sftp aswell. Also if set up correctly it is perfectly safe. Specially proFTPd.
[10:39] <smokeyd> :)
[10:40] <smokeyd> ok you thought it through
[10:40] <smokeyd> :)
[10:46] <sahin_h> I removed the following file:  rm -rf .gconfd/ .gnome2* .local/
[10:46] <sahin_h> But gnome still remember for my wallpaper settings.
[10:46] <sahin_h> How is it possible?
[10:47] <portamenteff> i just ran "man mv" the option "mv -b" will create a backup.
[10:47] <ArthurArchnix> on a new install, there's this repo in the sources.list, well a bunch of them, and the comments say these are major bugfixes after a release. Once you've updated after the initial install, can these repos be removed?
[10:47] <sahin_h> I can't find where gnome store some settings. Wallpaper, number of desktops...
[10:48] <sahin_h> I would like to reconfigure my gnome desktop from scratch.
[10:48] <pajamian> portamenteff: I think that -b creates a backup of a file in the target location before overwriting it.
[10:49] <ArthurArchnix> for example: deb ...ubuntu/ gutsy main restricted   &  /gutsy-updates main restricted
[10:49] <portamenteff> sahin-h: click "preferences" then "appearance"
[10:49] <portamenteff> its a tab in there
[10:50] <sahin_h> portamenteff: I know that way. I would like to clean all of my settings.
[10:50] <sahin_h> portamenteff: I would like to use gnome as a newly created user.
[10:51] <portamenteff> "defaults" then
[10:51] <portamenteff> it comes out of the box that way
[10:51] <snakeoil>  /etc/inittab disappead in hardy . WTH is it gone ? Is this related the new init system upstart ?
[10:51] <geirha> sahin_h: off the top of my head, ~/.gconf/ ~/.gnome/ and possibly ~/.gnome2/ are the directories gnome stores configuration
[10:51] <pajamian> sahin_h: did you rm -f those directories while in a gnome session that is logged into the user that you want to clear out?
[10:51] <sahin_h> geirha: I took the same.
[10:52] <sahin_h> pajamian: Nope. I logget out first.
[10:52] <portamenteff> in terminal "sudo adduser"
[10:52] <sahin_h> pajamian: After from the console I erased these files.
[10:52] <pajamian> sahin_h: ok.
[10:52] <pajamian> sahin_h: I don't believe your list included .gnome
[10:53] <sahin_h> pajamian: I don't have .gnome direcory.
[10:53] <geirha> sahin_h: hm, then it's probably easiest to rename your homedir, remove your user with deluser, and recreate your user with adduser (using the same uid and gid), then selectively copying the files from your old home to your new one
[10:53] <Shoopuf> In Software Sources of the Administration menu I turned on ubuntu-security and ubuntu-recommended, is that ok?
[10:54] <sahin_h> geirha: Yes, I think this is the only and painful way what is left for me.
[10:54] <portamenteff> wait- you gotto go "su" (root password) then adduser. sorry
[10:55] <sahin_h> portamenteff, pajamian, geirha! Thanks anyway!
[10:55] <geirha> portamenteff: ubuntu doesn't give root a password by default, and it shouldn't have one, so sudo is the way to go
[10:56] <Rhodetrem> I'm having a problem with Mplayer hue/contrast: "having adjusted the hue/contrast previously, what's an easy way to set them all back to neutral?
[10:56] <Rhodetrem> use xvattr"
[10:56] <Rhodetrem> What values in xvattr do I use to reset?
[10:57] <portamenteff> i tried sudo adduser and got "only one or two names allowed"
[10:57] <portamenteff> i tried su (i am root) and it worked.
[10:58] <geirha> portamenteff: works for me, you can get a root shell with sudo though, just use sudo -i or sudo -s
[10:58] <portamenteff> hmmm. didn't knwo that
[10:59] <portamenteff> its past my bedtime.
[11:00] <Shoopuf> Hi, I just installed Ubuntu 7.10 and it comes with Pidgin 2.2.1, but I want to upgrade to 2.4.0... Is there something I can type, or can I just download and install from the Pidgin website?
[11:01] <BubblegumTate> you should be able to get the updated installer from getdeb.net
[11:01] <Rhodetrem> http://www.getdeb.net/app/Pidgin
[11:02] <Shoopuf> BubblegumTate, Rhodetrem: Thanks, I'll bookmark that for future referencee.
[11:02] <Shoopuf> BubblegumTate, Rhodetrem: So should I uninstall the old one first or just install the package I get from getdeb.net?
[11:03] <BubblegumTate> the package should install over it
[11:03] <BubblegumTate> using magics
[11:04] <Rhodetrem> yeah you should be fine to install over, but when you upgrade again from getdeb I would uninstall/install "Note please remove your current version before installing the new version."
[11:05] <Rhodetrem> you might want to check the first comment here: http://www.getdeb.net/comment.php?rel_id=2259
[11:05] <Shoopuf> Rhodetrem: Oh yah, just saw that. So I'll uninstall Pidgin... Oh man, it's in 3 different pieces, how confusing. >_<

[11:12] <geirha> llama32: it's just how bittorrent work. It downloads random bits of the files, not sequentially. So the files are basically a big mess untill they're 100% complete
[11:12] <Shoopuf> llama32: Uh, torrents are downloaded in slices and pieces. They aren't downloaded starting at the beginningof the song, so you are hearing the bits and pieces that have been downloaded so far... Just wait for it to finish. =_=
[11:14] <llama32> Shoopuf: but each file is bits from a different song.. i just don't see why the program would save them like that as it's downloading, is all :)
[11:14] <BubblegumTate> this disk seems to have the same thing wrong! Checking the disk for defects came back with one file off again
[11:14] <xgreenoughx> I have Ubunto installed on my laptop and it goes crazy anyone know where i can find a driver for it?
[11:15] <biabia> anyone know about wireless security settings? like here ssid is disabled. using wpa2-psk.     is that pretty good?
[11:15] <xgreenoughx> I have Ubunto installed on my laptop and my mouse goes crazy anyone know where i can find a driver for it?
[11:15] <pygmymath> xgreenoughx: what do you mean by crazy
[11:15] <llama32> thanks geirha & Shoopuf :)
[11:15] <xgreenoughx> my mouse
[11:15] <xgreenoughx> im sorry forgot to add that lol
[11:15] <pygmymath> weird.. synaptics touhpad?
[11:15] <xgreenoughx> yes

[11:15] <Rhodetrem> my synaptics touchpad stopped working for some reason
[11:16] <xgreenoughx> im not on my computer with linux
[11:16] <pygmymath> xgreenoughx: aye, but is it a touchpad or a mouse?
[11:16] <xgreenoughx> touch

[11:16] <pygmymath> what the botsaid
[11:17] <BubblegumTate> so, if I've burnt two copies of an iso and each has failed the disk check in the same way
[11:17] <BubblegumTate> what are the odds that the iso is faulty?
[11:17] <Shoopuf> Anyone else's "Volume Slider" really sluggish when moving it up and down? It's reacting abnormally.
[11:17] <biabia> is there a md5sum for it
[11:18] <geirha> BubblegumTate: check the md5sum
[11:18] <geirha> !md5sum | BubblegumTate
[11:18] <ubotu> BubblegumTate: To verify the integrity of a download, use the md5sum - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM for more
[11:19] <dgjones> BubblegumTate, what speed are you burning at? if its the ubuntu install iso's its normally recommended to burn at a slower speed
[11:19] <biabia> im picking up this linux stuff. very slowly. slow like the way sand accumulates on a snails butt as it crawls across a rock
[11:20] <Furiattl> hello there
[11:20] <BubblegumTate> I'm using the apple disk utility, I'm not really sure
[11:20] <doomik> Hello
[11:20] <BubblegumTate> is it relevant that I'm burning it onto dvds?
[11:20] <Furiattl> I've just installed ubuntu 48 hours ago
[11:21] <Furiattl> Can not get the LCD TV to work
[11:21] <Furiattl> Using an S-Video cable
[11:21] <BubblegumTate> geirha... the md5 is totally different
[11:22] <soundray> BubblegumTate: check the md5sum first. You need to open a terminal and run the command 'md5 file.iso' on Mac OS X
[11:22] <BubblegumTate> I just checked it
[11:22] <tpfennig> hi all
[11:22] <soundray> BubblegumTate: did you compare it with the published one?
[11:22] <Digi> I just installed gproftpd and i cant seem to get it to work any help for this
[11:22] <BubblegumTate> yeah
[11:22] <Furiattl> hi tpfennig
[11:22] <BubblegumTate> 7194503820926a495163fec7646cb972  ubuntu-7.10-desktop-i386.iso
[11:23] <soundray> BubblegumTate: then you should re-download
[11:23] <BubblegumTate> that's why one
[11:23] <BubblegumTate> *my
[11:23] <tpfennig> xchat-gnome doesnt have an icon?
[11:23] <BubblegumTate> yeah, I'm doing that now
[11:28] <zod_> does " sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras" fix so i can see DVD????
[11:28] <kennethr> anyone know anything about Atom/RSS feed generation?  I'd like to find a command-line tool that will manipulate an XML file
[11:28] <Blinkiz> It seems like one of my computer at home have changed IP address from my DHCP. I want to find out what the new IP number can be.
[11:28] <Blinkiz> Am looking for a ping utility that can ping a subnet i specify. Please advice.
[11:28] <ubuntuu> Hello. When I press ctrl-k in rhytmbox, where does the playlist go? =)
[11:28] <kennethr> Blinkiz: did you try ping?
[11:29] <BubblegumTate> advice is a noun, you mean "please advise"
[11:29] <Blinkiz> kennethr: Oh, can "normal" ping handle subnet as argument?
[11:29] <soundray> Blinkiz: yes, with -b (broadcast)
[11:29] <kennethr> Blinkiz: use the -b
[11:29] <Zvezdichko> hello, I'd like to ask whether we will have an update for the gnome desktop
[11:30] <kennethr> Blinkiz: but a firewall might stop a system from responding
[11:30] <ciphergoth> Is there a way for me to ssh into a remote machine and cause it to hibernate?
[11:30] <kennethr> ciphergoth: an ubuntu machine?
[11:30] <Jack_Sparrow> Zvezdichko, Eventually yes, but the current focus is the next release
[11:31] <RoadHazard> the new ati driver officially rocks
[11:31] <Zvezdichko> hmmm...
[11:31] <Blinkiz> Sooo, how do I use this -b argument? Should I write something like "ping 192.168.2.255 -b"?
[11:31] <BubblegumTate> new? how new?
[11:31] <ciphergoth> kennethr: yews
[11:31] <Zvezdichko> I know that some day I'll have to upgrade to hardy
[11:31] <RoadHazard> 8.42.3
[11:31] <Zvezdichko> but it's even not in beta status
[11:31] <ciphergoth> kennethr: an Ubuntu Gutsy laptop
[11:31] <soundray> Blinkiz: man ping
[11:31] <Jack_Sparrow> Zvezdichko, Assuming you meant the new gnome and not ubuntu-desktop
[11:32] <Blinkiz> soundray: Already done that
[11:32] <vircuser> hi, does anyone know a command to search recursively through a directory for a file that contains a certain string?
[11:32] <ciphergoth> vircuser: find
[11:32] <tpfennig> and grep
[11:33] <kennethr> Blinkiz: ping -b <broadcast address>
[11:33] <Blinkiz> vircuser: You can always use the find command. Like "find mydir/ -iname *thestring*"
[11:33] <ciphergoth> kennethr: never mind - turns out I haven't installed openssh-server on that machine anyway.
[11:33] <vircuser> does -iname mean it searches inside the file?
[11:34] <ForsakenSoul> can someone please help me
[11:34] <soundray> vircuser: no
[11:34] <ForsakenSoul> my internet doesn't start in recovery mod
[11:34] <ForsakenSoul> mode*
[11:34] <soundray> vircuser: use grep
[11:34] <Blinkiz> kennethr: I am on a different subnet that the computer I want to ping. Will it still work?
[11:34] <Blinkiz> Maybe someone know a program that can ping a subnet instead?
[11:34] <vircuser> ok will try with grep
[11:34] <soundray> vircuser: grep -r to recurse through subdirectories
[11:34] <vircuser> thx

[11:35] <kennethr> Blinkiz: do you administrate the DHCP server?
[11:35] <soundray> Blinkiz: why don't you just go ahead and ping the broadcast address from the subnet, wherever you are
[11:36] <ForsakenSoul> can someone please help me .... i've curently messed up my system and i'm trying to install the desktop file again but in text mode my pc has no net
[11:36] <Blinkiz> soundray: So will that be "ping -b 192.168.2.255" on my 192.168.2.0 network? I am currently on the network 172.27.213.0.
[11:36] <kennethr> Blinkiz: ping!!!  see above
[11:36] <Jack_Sparrow> ForsakenSoul, messed up in what way
[11:36] <soundray> Blinkiz: TRY!
[11:36] <ForsakenSoul> Jack_sparrow doesn't want to load the gui
[11:36] <Blinkiz> soundray: Nothing answered when I did that
[11:37] <ForsakenSoul> it doesn't even want to load the GDM in the beggining
[11:37] <kennethr> Blinkiz: ping. see above
[11:37] <ForsakenSoul> so I deleted the desktop file and was trying to install it again but ... i have no net
[11:37] <soundray> ForsakenSoul: what is the "desktop file"?
[11:37] <Blinkiz> kennethr: What do you mean? I have runned "ping -b 192.168.2.255" without any good result
[11:37] <ForsakenSoul> well
[11:38] <ForsakenSoul> ubuntu-desktop kubuntu-desktop
[11:38] <ForsakenSoul> these files
[11:38] <ForsakenSoul> i mean
[11:38] <Jack_Sparrow> ForsakenSoul, You mean something like this    rm -rf .gnome .gnome2 .gconf .gconfd .metacity
[11:38] <ForsakenSoul> only kubuntu-desktop because i'm using kubuntu but no one is actually answering there
[11:38] <soundray> ForsakenSoul: those are packages, and they aren't strictly necessary.
[11:39] <kennethr> Blinkiz: do you run the DHCP server?  Is the DHCP server a linux box or is it  your router?  or is it a DHCP server from your Internet Service PRovider?
[11:39] <soundray> ForsakenSoul: to reinstall a package, run 'sudo apt-get --reinstall install packagename'. You don't have to be connected if the package is still in the cache.
[11:39] <kennethr> Blinkiz: what (physically) is the DHCP server?
[11:39] <Jack_Sparrow> ForsakenSoul, ah   But you can get to recovery mode cli?
[11:40] <ForsakenSoul> yeah i can get to recovery mode
[11:40] <Jack_Sparrow> Morning Soundray
[11:40] <Blinkiz> kennethr: Yes, I can login to the DHCP server and see what IP number that my stationary computer has. But I feel that writing a line in a prompt is far more faster.
[11:40] <soundray> Jack_Sparrow: Captain!
[11:40] <ross> an overeager admin deleted /etc/init.d/mysql;  i'm trying to reinstall it, but none of the mysql packages seem to reinstall it (for instance, mysql-server-5.0 claims to own it, but reinstalling it doesn't recover the file, nor purging, etc)
[11:40] <Shoopuf> Is there a "Notepad++" or "EditPlus" equivelant for Ubuntu text editors?
[11:40] <ross> nevermind who the overeager admin was :p
[11:40] <Jack_Sparrow> ForsakenSoul, sudo apt-get kubuntu-desktop  does nothing?
[11:41] <ForsakenSoul> soundray i've already removed the package and can't installed it i tryed apt-get install pacakge
[11:41] <kennethr> Blinkiz: you can set the DHCP server to always assign the same address to your computer.  Just assign by MAC address
[11:41] <ForsakenSoul> Jack_sparrow shows me that it can't fetch the repository
[11:41] <soundray> ForsakenSoul: read carefully! You need to use the --reinstall option
[11:41] <Jack_Sparrow> add install to that line
[11:41] <Jack_Sparrow> yep..
[11:41] <kennethr> Blinkiz: does that make sense
[11:41] <Jack_Sparrow> Listen to soundray.. he is awake..
[11:41] <Blinkiz> kennethr: I know, but that is NOT my question today!
[11:42] <ForsakenSoul> soundray .. so if i already have autoremoved the package ?
[11:42] <soundray> Jack_Sparrow: only just
[11:42] <vircuser> shoopuf - what's wrong with gedit?
[11:42] <Jack_Sparrow> 4am here..brb  gonna grab my coffee
[11:42] <soundray> ForsakenSoul: it's still in the cache
[11:42] <kennethr> Blinkiz: OK, what is your objective and what is your question and what is your favorite color. ;)
[11:42] <Blinkiz> kennethr: Whatever. Found the program "nmap" that will do what am looking for. "nmap -sP 192.168.2.0/24"
[11:42] <vircuser> i kinda like it ;) Got all those flashy colors in the code
[11:43] <Blinkiz> kennethr: Blue is a nice color :-)
[11:43] <isotropicspin> does anyone know where to get a driver for LG Widescreen L192WS ...... absolute beginner here........
[11:43]  * ross isn't getting anyone's attention :p
[11:44] <isotropicspin> tried googling.........
[11:44] <vircuser> iso does ubuntu install?
[11:44] <Jack_Sparrow> isotropicspin, no driver needed, just the right v/h settings put into the xorg
[11:44] <vircuser> there is a change screen resolution utility
[11:44] <isotropicspin> yeah and everything makes it go crazy
[11:45] <Jack_Sparrow> isotropicspin,   please type this in a term   sudo apt-get install pastebinit  && cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | pastebinit

[11:47] <soundray> Jack_Sparrow: pastebinit, wow. Which site does it post to by default?
[11:48] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray, the authors "Stacy"  but you can point it to others (NOt all) with -b option
[11:49] <Jack_Sparrow> sudo apt-get install pastebinit  && cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | pastebinit -b http://pastebin.ca   I think os the format...

[11:52] <Jack_Sparrow> isotropicspin, I can follow you now while things are slow.. but when we are busy  type a few letters of my name then hit tab to complete it..
[11:52] <BubblegumTate> I just downloaded ANOTHER 7.10 iso and it's got yet another different md5 hash!
[11:52] <BubblegumTate> W TF?
[11:52] <soundray> Jack_Sparrow: that's great, keep it up :)
[11:52] <isotropicspin> Jack... ok. The web address for what? To get drivers?
[11:53] <Jack_Sparrow> isotropicspin, that command I gave when typed in a term returns a number that we need in order to help you
[11:53] <isotropicspin> jack .... 1517

[11:54] <Jack_Sparrow> isotropicspin, Highlight in your terminal using the mouse then shift ctrl c to copy then ctrl-v to paste into your irc clientthank you
[11:54] <Makdaam> how do I prevent some files in /usr/bin from updating or ever changing automagically?
[11:54] <soundray> http://paste.stgraber.org/1517
[11:55] <Makdaam> to be more exact I mean symlinks like gcc g++ etc.
[11:55] <mitch_> hey my sudo doesn't work anymore
[11:55] <mitch_> i get .aliases: command not found
[11:55] <mitch_> any ideas?
[11:55] <isotropicspin> jack my IRC client doesn't let me paste !!!!!!!!!1 but the address is the same as soundray and I gave
[11:55] <isotropicspin> see above
[11:56] <soundray> mitch_: what did you do to bring this about?
[11:56] <Jack_Sparrow> isotropicspin, np...  you can go there and see that your setup has no resolutions defined..
[11:56] <mitch_> sound ray nothing
[11:57] <isotropicspin> jack, ok what does that mean (Linux n00b here!!!!!!!!! )
[11:57] <mitch_> I had it yesterday and then I put my computer to sleep
[11:57] <mitch_> and today I was messing with themes
[11:57] <lancerocke> Hi all. Where is the Firefox Bookmarks file? I backup it up a while back and forgot where it was
[11:57] <shaark> hi all
[11:58] <shaark> i'm having problem seeing an ipod in linux what can i do?
[11:58] <soundray> mitch_: did you quote the exact error message above?
[11:58] <isotropicspin> djones.... freaky man you have the same initial as me
[11:58] <Jack_Sparrow> isotropicspin, http://paste.stgraber.org/1518          is my edited version with my widescreen basic res included    SOundray.. double check that please
[11:58] <mitch_> yes
[11:59] <Jack_Sparrow> lancerocke, you can use the search, find or locate toold   to oddly enough   find or locate it  :)
[11:59] <dtj> wow found anick that is not owned
[11:59] <dtj> can ipod work without iTunes?
[12:00] <soundray> Jack_Sparrow: they aren't widescreen modes. I'd have advised to use dpkg-reconfigure
[12:00] <Adys> hmm
[12:00] <lancerocke> Jack_Sparrow: search never finds anything for me
[12:00] <commans> I create a launcher in desktop, but I need sudo to run the program. I don't know how to combine the password in the command line
[12:00] <Adys> is it possible to launch a scan on default config from bash with SANE?
[12:00] <shaark> it should work without itunes
[12:00] <isotropicspin> jack, soundary, is it possible to solve this problem by installing a driver in "restricted drivers manager" thats there?
[12:00] <Jack_Sparrow> lancerocke, default is /home/yourusername
[12:01] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray, 1280x960 is this systems default wide....
[12:01] <_dee_> i've created a user account on my ubuntu system. I've tried connecting to my ubuntu computer via my windows computer (using PuttY). When i enter the login details. it gives me Access Denied message. And i dont know why?
[12:01] <lancerocke> Jack_Sparrow: ~/Bookmarks.html?
[12:02] <Jack_Sparrow> lancerocke, it could have been named anything
[12:02] <soundray> Jack_Sparrow: that's 4:3 though. Wide is either 16:9 or 16:10
[12:02] <Jack_Sparrow> isotropicspin, no a driver would not help this
[12:03] <isotropicspin> soundary, jack, I have a feeling default for screen is 1440 X 900
[12:03] <soundray> _dee_: you need to 'sudo apt-get install ssh' on the ubuntu system
[12:03] <_dee_> i did sudo apt-get openssh-server
[12:03] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray, This is a common resolution for a mid range widescreen display. A standard 4:3 LCD monitor will display a native resolution of 1280 x 1024

[12:05] <mitch_> any ideas?
[12:05] <isotropicspin> jack, soundray, where do i post that file. do i edit xorg.conf?
[12:05] <Jack_Sparrow> isotropicspin, http://paste.stgraber.org/1519
[12:05] <_dee_> soundray : it says Setting up ssh
[12:06] <soundray> _dee_: when it's done, you'll be able to connect through putty
[12:06] <_dee_> soundray : how do i know when its done?
[12:06] <_dee_> i'm sorry i'm a complete newb to linux
[12:06] <soundray> _dee_: the $ prompt comes back
[12:06] <xuxa-olpc> I made a new computer for my sister and Ubuntu now freezes very early in the boot process (right at the beginning of the task bar).  Is there any way to get more info about what's going on? Alt-F1 gives only, "Starting up... Loading, please wait..."
[12:06] <_dee_> yeah.. its done that
[12:07] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray, there is also a 1280x800
[12:07] <_dee_> soundray : still doesnt work. When i use Putty. it connects to my computer. But refuses entry. Says access Denied
[12:07] <soundray> Jack_Sparrow: that's 16:10 (=wide)
[12:07] <_dee_> like i'm entering the incorrect username/password. But i'm not
[12:08] <soundray> _dee_: try if you can ssh from your ubuntu box to itself: 'ssh localhost'
[12:08] <soundray> mitch_: I haven't got any specific advice. Maybe boot in recovery mode and run 'apt-get --reinstall install sudo'
[12:08] <Jack_Sparrow> isotropicspin, Yes  use gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf      confirm soundray as he seems to trust you more
[12:09] <_dee_> soundray : it says: Linux Home 2.6 blah blah
[12:09] <_dee_> soundray : it looks like it works thru the shell
[12:10] <soundray> _dee_: can you ping your Ubuntu box from the Windows one?
[12:10] <_dee_> let me try
[12:10] <soundray> isotropicspin: confirm :)
[12:10] <Jack_Sparrow> isotropicspin, write this down      sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg Select vesa as your video card and 1024 max rex.  Use tab or enter to accept all other defaults
[12:10] <YANTO> dgj
[12:10] <hischild> soundray, i just dropped in ... what'd he do? break sudo?

[12:11] <soundray> hischild: it seems so, although he claims to not have done anything. The error was '.aliases: command not found'
[12:12] <Jack_Sparrow> s One letter nicks will get old with highlighting
[12:12] <_dee_> dtj: this is what i get http://pastebin.com/m1dfe814b
[12:12] <hischild> soundray, can he use sudo in general?
[12:12] <s> i wanna know bt non-vistaish ffx3b4 in ubuntu????????
[12:12] <dtj> _dee_, its not that then
[12:12] <Jack_Sparrow> s Yes people have used it.. some had problems but seemed minor
[12:12] <_dee_> dtj: i know :( its weird as.
[12:13] <_dee_> someone said it had to do with sshd_config
[12:13] <soundray> hischild: no... [11:55] <mitch_> hey my sudo doesn't work anymore
[12:13] <Shoopuf> who doesnt ubotu know anything about netbeans :(
[12:13] <Flynsarmy> Anyone able to tell me what the 'power up in standby' jumper pins on the back of sata2 hdd's are used for? whether or not i should jumper them
[12:13] <hischild> soundray, i c ....
[12:13] <s> woo hhooo
[12:14] <lunaphyte_> i just installed gutsy server, and whenever i run apt-get install, it demands i put in a cd.  i've fixed that in sources.list, but is that typical behavior?
[12:14] <Flynsarmy> Or the channel i SHOULD be using for this question? :$
[12:14] <Jack_Sparrow> Flynsarmy, I never jumper any sata's
[12:14] <kane77> Shoopuf, what do you want to know about netbeans?
[12:14] <elkbuntu> lunaphyte_, if you install without a network connection at the time, yes.
[12:14] <Slart> Flynsarmy: sounds like something that decides wether the drive keeps spinning in standby or not.. but I'm just guessing
[12:14] <CaBa|> lunaphyte_: if u installed from cd the cd remains as source in the sources.list
[12:14] <CaBa|> lunaphyte_: simply remove it (should be at the top of the file) and run "apt-get update"
[12:14] <Shoopuf> kane77: Can I easily install and run the latest NetBeans version?
[12:15] <_dee_> should sshd normally work ?
[12:15] <Shoopuf> the wiki seems to be out of date, or doesnt work
[12:15] <_dee_> without much configuration?
[12:15] <soundray> _dee_: your sshd is working. You've proven that.
[12:15] <kane77> Shoopuf, it is not in the repository afaik, but it is not hard to install it...
[12:15] <RoadHazard> hmm sudo not working, did he get removed from the admin group, or did something happen with visudo?
[12:15] <Slart> _dee_: sshd normally works.. there's some stuff to configure.. but it's not that hard
[12:15] <RoadHazard> oops
[12:15] <hischild> soundray, you probably already checked this ... but did he pastebin his sudo file?
[12:15] <Jack_Sparrow> Shoopuf, the "repos" will always be a bit behind.. but will be stable and tested
[12:15] <lunaphyte_> CaBa|: yeah i did, i was just curious.  how would someone not install from a cd?
[12:15] <_dee_> then i wonder why the login isnt working
[12:15] <_dee_> >_<
[12:15] <soundray> _dee_: where did you get the output you pastebinned?
[12:15] <CaBa|> lunaphyte_: using debootstrap for example
[12:16] <Slart> _dee_: trying to login to another computer where sshd is running?
[12:16] <Slart> _dee_: any errors?
[12:16] <_dee_> soundray : by typing sudo iptables -L
[12:16] <lunaphyte_> CaBa|: hmm.
[12:16] <s>  i wanna know bt non-vistaish ffx3b4 in ubuntu????????
[12:16] <CaBa|> lunaphyte_: i also dont know why the source remains in sources.list when you install the server from cd, but not if you install the workstation from cd
[12:16] <kane77> Shoopuf, you just need to download the archive, extract it and run the instalation file...
[12:16] <_dee_> Slart  i've only got 1 SSHD computer. (My Ubuntu system). and i've got a windows xp system
[12:16] <isotropicspin> Jack, soundray...I trust you both equally!.... ok i did that.... what next?
[12:17] <lunaphyte_> CaBa|: yeah.  well, i guess you get what you pay or  ;)
[12:17] <CaBa|> lunaphyte_: maybe they considered that more useful for servers... whatever :P
[12:17] <lunaphyte_> *pay for.
[12:17] <Slart> s: you want to know what? bt? non-vistaish? ffx3b4 = firefox 3 beta 4?.. electrons are cheap.. use more of them
[12:17] <Jack_Sparrow> isotropicspin, cross fingers, log out and back in.. with that other command written down and handy
[12:17] <RoadHazard> lunaphyte_:  sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list go down about 3 or 4 lines and put a # in front of the deb that says cdrom in it
[12:17] <Slart> _dee_: sounds like a normal setup...  what happens when you try to login?
[12:17] <RoadHazard> then it will not annoy you anymore
[12:17] <s> electrons?
[12:17] <isotropicspin> jack, ooooooo... i already did that command.... is that bad?
[12:17] <soundray> _dee_: you did remember that usernames are case-sensitive?
[12:18] <CaBa|> RoadHazard: we are beyond that since longer ;)
[12:18] <CaBa|> RoadHazard: he simply wants to complain that it _was_ there
[12:18] <CaBa|> ;)
[12:18] <Jack_Sparrow> isotropicspin, the sudo dpkg one ?
[12:18] <Slart> s: elaborate.. type more stuff.. explain more
[12:18] <RoadHazard> bah
[12:18] <_dee_> soundray : Yes
[12:18] <_dee_> Slart : Keeps giving me a Access Denied
[12:18] <Slart> s: I can hardly understand what you asked for
[12:18] <_dee_> and i promise you i'm typing it correctly. case sensetive
[12:18] <gadiS_13_taon> yy
[12:18] <gadiS_13_taon> hayy
[12:18] <Slart> _dee_: are you using putty on the xp machine?
[12:19] <_dee_> Slart  Yes
[12:19] <isotropicspin> jack... yes
[12:19] <s> slart,i installed ffx3b4 but i cant see its vistaish icons on toolbar?
[12:19] <Jack_Sparrow> isotropicspin, cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | pastebinit      so I can look at it
[12:19] <isotropicspin> jack.... i am silly? did i only need to do the first one then log out?
[12:19] <s> but in xp i see them
[12:19] <dtj> _dee_, in /etc/ssh/sshd_config is there PasswordAuthentication variable set to no?
[12:19] <isotropicspin> jack.... ok will do.
[12:19] <Slart> _dee_: and you've configured sshd to listen on an external interface.. I think it just listens to localhost by default
[12:19] <Jack_Sparrow> isotropicspin, That was a failsafe setting just in case...
[12:20] <alanbshepard70> Can anyone help me get an apple2 emulator working? I've installed apple][ and xapple2 neither work. I googled and found out about kegs but I can't even get that to make. Any ideas?
[12:20] <s> slart,u used ffx3b4?
[12:20] <lunaphyte_> so is grub 2 really grub version 1.95..?
[12:20] <isotropicspin> jack... ok well i will just redo what you first suggested and then log out
[12:20] <soundray> _dee_: does it really say 'access denied' or is it 'connection refused'?
[12:20] <Slart> s: ah.. I just tried the firefox beta.. I didn't get any vistaish icons either.. it might be a windows thing
[12:20] <isotropicspin> jack is that a good idea?
[12:20] <hischild> Slart, no, if you're talking about openssh-server, it also listens to internet connections if they're forwarded
[12:20] <_dee_> soundray : Access Denied
[12:20] <s> no offer now?
[12:21] <GSF1200S> anyone know how to get usb devices to automatically mount at startup? they automount any other time just fine...
[12:21] <Slart> hischild: huh? you route the connection from the external interface to localhost? is that some kind of security thing?
[12:21] <soundray> _dee_: is that in the putty terminal, or does it come up as a dialog?
[12:21] <tobiwan_> _dee_, Slart: i don't think sshd listens to localhost only by default. is there an 'AllowedUsers' directive in sshd_config, maybe?
[12:21] <Jack_Sparrow> isotropicspin, we need to make sure your xorg still looks like this http://paste.stgraber.org/1519
[12:21]  * Slart hasn't installed sshd in a long time.. hard to remember the defaults =)
[12:21] <_dee_> soundray : Putty terminal
[12:21] <hischild> Slart, no, sshd listens to both local and external connections by default (it did for me ... )
[12:22] <soundray> _dee_: ah.
[12:22] <Jack_Sparrow> isotropicspin, from term  gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[12:22] <tobiwan_> Slart: i opened up my freshly-installed config, too ;-)
[12:22] <_dee_> ok take a look at my sshd_config
[12:22] <_dee_> hold on
[12:22] <soundray> _dee_: I think you've used sudo to change something in your $HOME/.ssh -- do a 'sudo chown -R $USER:$USER $HOME/.ssh' to fix that
[12:22] <isotropicspin> jack.... i can check
[12:23] <isotropicspin> jack... if its the same should i go ahead and then relogin and cross fingers?
[12:23] <Slart> _dee_: can you pastebin your /etc/ssh/sshd_config  .. so we can stop worrying about what is default or not =)
[12:23] <Jack_Sparrow> isotropicspin, if it matches.. yes
[12:24] <dee_> take a look at this guys: http://pastebin.com/m1bb5408b
[12:24] <isotropicspin> jack.... ok thanks ALOT! if its the same I will probably not be back...... so if i am not THANKS!!!!!!!
[12:24] <Jack_Sparrow> dee_, Please dont post a link without a description of the problem
[12:24] <suxxor> what is the comand to rename file by terminal
[12:24] <Jack_Sparrow> isotropicspin, we will be here
[12:24] <Slart> suxxor: mv
[12:24] <soundray> Jack_Sparrow: it's been discussed extensively

[12:25] <Jack_Sparrow> dee sorry
[12:25] <tobiwan_> dee_: looks pretty OK. dumb question: the sshd is running, isn't it?
[12:25] <richard> I was just installing some updates - and my compiz froze on me, I had to hard reboot.. My question is, how do i continue those updates?.. I've disabled compiz for now
[12:25] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray, I just saw the join and then the paste
[12:25] <lesshaste> gnome power manager things my laptop is plugged into the mains when it isn't
[12:25] <dtj> tobiwan_,  he can connect from locahost
[12:25] <lesshaste> any idea how to fix that?

[12:25] <tobiwan_> ah
[12:26] <Drugon> !gnash | drugon
[12:26] <Drugon> :<
[12:26] <Slart> tobiwan_: using the loopback interface? or the external ip?
[12:26] <Slart> sorry
[12:26] <lunaphyte_> i was also a bit surprised to see gutsy insisted on installing lilo as the bootloader.
[12:26] <dee_> tobiwan_  : the sshd is running yes
[12:26] <tobiwan_> Slart: sorry?
[12:26] <richard> RoadHazard: I had to install xchat to get here, but does the installation pick up - if I had any aborted ones, then install the application?
[12:26] <GSF1200S> anyone have any idea how to get usb devices and cdroms to mount at startup? I have the cdrom drive in the fstab but no dice
[12:26] <tobiwan_> dee_: what does /var/log/auth.log say about the failed login?
[12:26] <Slart> dtj, tobiwan_, _dee_: "he can connect from localhost" ... using the loopback interface? or the external ip?
[12:27] <hischild> lunaphyte_, what file system did you specify for /boot?
[12:27] <Jack_Sparrow> lunaphyte_, that gutsy was not our gutsy.. must be one of the variations
[12:27] <ArthurArchnix> Someone mentioned once that there was a script that could be run to install libdvdcss support... after you installed ubuntu-restricted-extras that is. Does anyone know the name of the script to run? I'm aware of medibuntu, I want to try to find this script.
[12:27] <isotropicspin> jeff, Soundray.xactly the same........ ok cross fingers...... thanks ALOT!
[12:27] <RoadHazard> richard: yes if you installed something after the crash it should pick up where it left off in dpkg
[12:27] <erawfish> !medibuntu | ArthurArchnix
[12:27] <ubotu> ArthurArchnix: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org
[12:27] <richard> RoadHazard: ah, okey, thanks
[12:27] <erawfish> !css | ArthurArchnix

[12:27] <soundray> tobiwan_, Slart, hischild: let's summarize dee_'s problem: sshd is running (can connect from localhost), it's NOT refusing the connection from Windows (says 'access denied' in the terminal rather than Connection refused in a dialog). That to me points to a file ownership problem, probably in ~/.ssh
[12:28] <lunaphyte_> hischild: i did a single partition for / , on lvm, on md.
[12:28] <RoadHazard> soundray: have we eliminated a firewall issue?
[12:28] <hischild> lunaphyte_, with what file system?
[12:28] <Werdna> dee_: is your home directory world-writeable?
[12:28] <soundray> RoadHazard: yes
[12:28] <erawfish> soundray: telnet to port 22, you should get some text
[12:28] <Jack_Sparrow> ArthurArchnix, Please avoid using a script to do that
[12:28] <hischild> soundray, and have you also suggested to try and login via pub/priv key?
[12:28] <ArthurArchnix> thanks erawfish   this is the link I was looking for... sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread3/examples/install-css.sh
[12:29] <lunaphyte_> Jack_Sparrow: it was on official install disc from ubuntu.com
[12:29] <erawfish> ArthurArchnix: afaik this won't work and will hose you. your call tho
[12:29] <lunaphyte_> hischild: oh, sorry - ext3.
[12:29] <soundray> erawfish: suggest it to dee_ please
[12:29] <hischild> soundray, and what program? putty? did he select ssh from the 4 radio buttons?
[12:29] <soundray> hischild: no
[12:29] <garmada> hi
[12:29] <erawfish> soundray: was distracted by your summary
[12:29] <ArthurArchnix> Really? Why would this method be suggested by ubotu if it could hose my system?
[12:29] <soundray> hischild: ah, good one. dee_, did you see that? ^^
[12:30] <ArthurArchnix> erawfish: ^^
[12:30] <Jack_Sparrow> lunaphyte_, If you were surprised that it installed lilo then you obiviously did not specifically tell it to setup lilo.. was it the alternate cd?
[12:30] <dee_> Werdna: i'm not too sure
[12:30] <tobiwan_> soundray, dee_: well, strictly speaking you can use ssh without having a .ssh directory at the server....
[12:30] <dee_> yes i did select SSH from the 4 buttons
[12:31] <lunaphyte_> Jack_Sparrow: no, the regular one.  i'm looking at the iso file sitting on my computer - the file name is ubuntu-7.10-server-i386.
[12:31] <hischild> soundray, a less elegant approach .... use nmap to scan his linux box to see if it is actually open
[12:31] <skyraven> hello, I just installed an ubuntu 7.10 + xmms + xmms-mp4 + faad etc but I can't get some aacplus streams to play..is there any workaround for this ? (I don't want another player); a stream example woudl be: http://deea.duras.ro:8000. Thanks
[12:31] <dee_> i just dont understand why this is happening
[12:31] <erawfish> dee_: did you try to telnet?
[12:31] <dee_> ill try telnet hold on
[12:31] <simion314> is this a corect command apt-file search libglib-2.0-0.dll? i am searching the package that contains this file
[12:31] <RoadHazard> soundray: you might try having him change the "PasswordAuthentication" variable from no to yes then /etc/init.d/ssh restart
[12:31] <Werdna> dee_: have you checked the logs?
[12:32] <Slart> simion314: sounds correct to me
[12:32] <erawfish> simion314: there is no such package. linux has no "DLLs"
[12:32] <Jack_Sparrow> lunaphyte_, server is the key...   grub is the default for livecd desktop...  server has both available  last time I checked
[12:32] <moses> faq
[12:32] <Slart> simion314: well.. apart from the dll thingy.. that is =)
[12:32] <dee_> erawfish : i did telnet. it connects. still says incorrect login
[12:32] <hischild> Jack_Sparrow, you sure? i think that if you specify xfs as filesystem it'll go to lilo as boot loader ...
[12:32] <erawfish> dee_: it says "ssh <version>" ?
[12:33]  * soundray stands back... too much help won't help
[12:33] <erawfish> hischild: grub can do xfs just fine
[12:33] <simion314> i need to find the package that contains that file, i belive that is in some package
[12:33] <hischild> erawfish, if you specify it on the alternate it'll give you a red screen saying it fails most of the time during install
[12:33] <dee_> erawfish it says "busybox on (none) login:"
[12:33] <familiar> Hey guys - Ubuntu just choked on a package, it won't finish installing nor can I remove it. Dpkg -r won't get rid of it either, how do I force this thing to die?
[12:33] <simion314> is there a way to find out in which package a file is placed?
[12:33] <rblst> hey, i want to run a java application in 7.10, but it say: Engine "ubuntulooks" is unsupported, ignoring
[12:33] <erawfish> dee_: huh? on port 22?
[12:33] <RoadHazard> familiar sudo dpkg --configure -a
[12:34] <erawfish> hischild: I ran linux from XFS with debian myself before. was fine
[12:34] <dee_> erawfish : did u want me to telnet or ssh?
[12:34] <erawfish> telnet to port 22
[12:34] <soundray> familiar: try 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' and 'sudo apt-get -f install'
[12:34] <hischild> erawfish, with /boot on xfs?
[12:34] <Jack_Sparrow> hischild, xfs ...  yes...
[12:34] <erawfish> and if you have in.telnetd running: stop it NOW!
[12:34] <erawfish> hischild: with / and /boot on xfs yes
[12:34] <dee_> ok let me try
[12:35] <hischild> Jack_Sparrow, erawfish, last time i've tried to use xfs as / without a /boot, it would just fail for me during install ... though it might be different now
[12:35] <familiar> soundray: thanks. I knew there was a way, I'm just really not used to apt. :)
[12:35] <RoadHazard> rblst: do you have the jre or jdk installed?
[12:35] <erawfish> see  /boot/grub/xfs_stage1_5
[12:35] <dee_> erawfish : SSH-2.0openSSH_3.6p1
[12:35] <dtj> _dee_,  i think it is worth uncommenting PasswordAuthentication field in sshd_config and setting to yes
[12:35] <rblst> RoadHazard: yes, i guess so
[12:36] <dee_> dtj : okay let me try
[12:36] <erawfish> ok, it'S the login. ssh files permissions are a likely cuplrit
[12:36] <dtj> dee_, u need to restart sshd after
[12:36] <RoadHazard> rblst: try this in terminal sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre
[12:37] <dee_> ok and to restart is: sudo /etc/init.d/sshd restart ?
[12:37] <dtj> yes
[12:37] <rblst> RoadHazard: hmm, it seems java6 is not installed, thanks
[12:37] <hischild> erawfish, i'm not saying i don't believe you, it's just that from my experience it didn't work
[12:37] <dee_> sudo: /etc/init.d/sshd: command not found
[12:37] <familiar> soundray: wow, the package is still stuck.
[12:37] <dtj> dee_, sorry /etc/init.d/ssh
[12:38]  * moses is back
[12:38] <BubblegumTate> I've just downloaded my third ubuntu iso
[12:38] <Jack_Sparrow> !aptfix

[12:38] <BubblegumTate> and had my third unique md5sum
[12:38] <dee_> done
[12:38] <dee_> ok let me try
[12:38] <BubblegumTate> and none of them are the same as on the md5 sum page
[12:38] <soundray> familiar: please pastebin the output from 'sudo apt-get -f install' (http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org)
[12:38] <BubblegumTate> I think that's a win for the rng
[12:38] <vampiregirl> Hi, can I ask a horribly stupid and ridiculous question?
[12:38] <Jack_Sparrow> BubblegumTate, Is comcast your provider.. :)
[12:38] <dee_> dtj erawfish : nope still says Access Denied
[12:38] <lesshaste> gnome power manager things my laptop is plugged into the mains when it isn't
[12:38] <hischild> vampiregirl, there are no stupid questions, only stupid answers
[12:39] <lesshaste> any idea how to fix that?
[12:39] <BubblegumTate> Jack: no
[12:39] <soundray> vampiregirl: we're waiting with bated breath
[12:39] <Jack_Sparrow> vampiregirl, There are no stupiid questions.. just ask
[12:39] <BubblegumTate> any ideas anyone?
[12:39] <erawfish> Jack_Sparrow: don't tempt me!
[12:39] <Jack_Sparrow> erawfish, I'll smack you
[12:39]  * hischild tempts erawfish 
[12:39] <soundray> hischild, Jack_Sparrow: you've been here long enough to know that there are plenty of stupid questions :)
[12:39] <dee_> i just dont get it
[12:39] <Jack_Sparrow> It must be Friday.. we are all a bit punchy
[12:40] <dee_> maybe i should just reinstall ubuntu linux and start from scratch?
[12:40] <Slart> Jack_Sparrow: stop telling people that.. every year I get students asking the most inane questions.. there are lots of stupid questions.. ;)
[12:40] <hischild> soundray, well i'
[12:40] <erawfish> dee_: no. if anything purge and reinstall ssh server
[12:40] <hischild> soundray, i'm still a bit in doubt whether there really are stupid question s.... :P
[12:40] <soundray> dee_: something went wrong in your install if busybox responds on port 22
[12:40] <Jack_Sparrow> Slart, it is the polite response.. and yes there are some really dumb questions
[12:40] <dee_> i see
[12:40] <vampiregirl> I'm attempting to download ubuntu, but each time I do, after about five hours of download time, it gets to the end at it wants to do something with Sonic Record Now which doesn't work over here, so right now Sonic wants me to choose a path for something, which I have no idea what, and that was a huge run-on sentance.
[12:40] <familiar> soundray: here's the paste http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59576/
[12:40] <lesshaste> seems to be after resuming from hibernate
[12:40] <dee_> so i should just sudo apt-get openssh-server again?
[12:40] <PingFloyd> there isn't stupid questions, but there are lazy questions
[12:41] <Slart> Jack_Sparrow: =)
[12:41] <hischild> vampiregirl, aah i see .... you're trying to open the iso directly after you download it?
[12:41] <Jack_Sparrow> vampiregirl, You are on windows.. do you have the iso on your desktop
[12:41] <erawfish> dee_: busybox only runs if the system is in rescue mode basically
[12:41] <isotropicspin> jack..... now my screen is skewed and wide........ but at least its fitting the monitor now
[12:41] <erawfish> dee_: so something is fishy
[12:41] <dee_> yeah thats weird
[12:41] <vampiregirl> I don't think I have it on my desktop....
[12:41] <isotropicspin> jack....I think its in 1024x...
[12:41] <Jack_Sparrow> isotropicspin, welcome back..
[12:41] <Slart> hmm.. sonic record.. might be a iso burning program of some sort..
[12:41] <dee_> so what do u guys recommend me to do?
[12:41] <erawfish> vampiregirl: do you have the ISO file anywhere on your disk?
[12:41] <hischild> vampiregirl, if you try and download the iso, you want to click on save, and then select your desktop to save it to.
[12:41] <isotropicspin> jack.... is there anywhere i can read about this and I won't waste your time any longer.... its best to learn....
[12:41] <hischild> Slart, yes, that's a burning program
[12:42] <Slart> vampiregirl: when you download the file.. do you select "open this file" or "save this file"
[12:42] <Jack_Sparrow> isotropicspin, you are in vsea mode and your xorg did not match what we had..
[12:42] <erawfish> dee_: step one, purge and tehn reinstal openssh-server
[12:42] <Jack_Sparrow> vesa
[12:42] <soundray> familiar: could you also pastebin /var/lib/dpkg/info/interchange-ui.postrm pls
[12:42] <dee_> how do i purge?
[12:42] <vampiregirl> I belive I did save.
[12:42] <hischild> vampiregirl, do you happen to remember where you put it?
[12:42] <isotropicspin> jack.... ok
[12:42] <erawfish> dee_: with apt-get
[12:42] <vampiregirl> I mean, no I did open. Sorry.
[12:42] <Slart> erawfish: if you select "open".. doesn't the file save to a temp folder somewhere?
[12:42] <dee_> i see
[12:42] <vampiregirl> Sorry, I just got up.
[12:42] <co_perhatian>   goblog
[12:42] <vampiregirl> Like five miuntes ago. :)
[12:43] <hischild> vampiregirl, ok. Then you will have to download it again. No problem, i'm still very sleepy (thus wierd sentence constructions ... )_
[12:43] <erawfish> Slart: it does
[12:43] <PingFloyd> vampiregirl: what you need to do is figure out where you downloaded it to and then burn it to a cd with whatever burning software you use
[12:43] <vampiregirl> So this time I save it, right?
[12:43] <hischild> vampiregirl, but be sure to select save and not open this time. Yes
[12:43] <Jack_Sparrow> isotropicspin, Look at lines 64 and 65   in gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[12:43] <erawfish> depending on internet browser
[12:43] <lesshaste> gnome power manager thinks my laptop is plugged into the mains when it isn't. Any ideas how to deal with this?
[12:44] <Jack_Sparrow> isotropicspin, compare to the same lines in http://paste.stgraber.org/1519
[12:44] <vampiregirl> Okay, I'll go download again, thanks. Does I need to burn something, or am I able to skip that bit?
[12:44] <PingFloyd> vampiregirl: it also wouldn't be a bad idea to check it it with md5sum prior to burning
[12:44] <dee_> how do you add user accounts via terminal?
[12:44] <hischild> vampiregirl, you will need to burn it. That's something we'll do after you're finished downloading
[12:44] <dee_> adduser?
[12:44] <erawfish> vampiregirl: you will need to burn it. cdburnerxp or such
[12:44] <erawfish> dee_: adduser
[12:44] <rblst> simion314: dpkg --search <filename>
[12:44] <familiar> soundray: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59577/
[12:44] <vampiregirl> Okay, thanks. I'll go attempt to redownload.
[12:45] <vampiregirl> Thanks.
[12:45] <Jack_Sparrow> vampiregirl, and that was not a stupid question
[12:45] <BubblegumTate> for all who are following my saga with great interest, I'm now wgetting the iso in the hope that it will result in a working iso with a correct md5
[12:45] <Wander_w> There are no stupid questions, just stupid people
[12:46] <isotropicspin> wander.... and never let school get in the way of a good education.....
[12:46] <Wander_w> lol
[12:46] <lunaphyte_> hmm, i thought /boot couldn't be on lvm?
[12:46] <Jack_Sparrow> isotropicspin, How are you doing with that xorg
[12:47] <isotropicspin> jack..... in the section "Monitor" there is all this extra crap now..... is that what you were refering to?
[12:48] <madrazr> Hi all
[12:48] <dee_> nope. i've purged, re-installed. still doesn't work. Access Denied
[12:48] <Jack_Sparrow> isotropicspin, no                  what lines did I mention..?
[12:48] <dee_> thats it
[12:48] <dee_> i give up
[12:48] <madrazr> I have setup a http server
[12:48] <madrazr> and its working fine
[12:48] <isotropicspin> 64-65
[12:48] <Muha> hello, is my Lenovo 8943-DJG Laptop FULLY compatible to ubuntu? where can i get such informations?
[12:48] <madrazr> but its pointing to my /var/www how to do it?
[12:48] <Wander_w> Muha: try the live-CD
[12:48] <Jack_Sparrow> Do they match the pastebin
[12:48] <Muha> i dont have the laptop
[12:48] <madrazr> How can I change the location??
[12:48] <Muha> i would buy one if its compatible
[12:49] <Jack_Sparrow> isotropicspin, You wanted a resource...   http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Gutsy
[12:49] <BubblegumTate> take a Live CD to the store
[12:49] <hischild> Muha, unless your laptop has some uberduperhightechnotreallyreleased hardware it's compatible 99% of the time in my opinion ... and do what BubblegumTate says
[12:49] <Wander_w> Muha: ah, I see.. what hardware are you worried about then?
[12:49] <RoadHazard> if it has broadcomm wireless, run
[12:49] <soundray> familiar: I suggest you replace /var/lib/dpkg/info/interchange-ui.postrm with these contents: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59578/
[12:49] <isotropicspin> jack.... those lines are exactly the same except just below it there is an extra one that says Driver "nv"
[12:49] <soundray> familiar: then re-run sudo apt-get -f install
[12:49] <isotropicspin> jack... thanks will look at soon
[12:49] <Wander_w> RoadHazard: Broadcom wireless works most of the time... at least for me it does
[12:49] <familiar> soundray: cool, I'll give it a go and hopefully my package goes away. I don't even need it anymore.
[12:50] <Jack_Sparrow> isotropicspin, that is the one.. that is your video driver
[12:50] <Wander_w> But Intel or Atheros based wireless would be better ofcourse :)
[12:50] <isotropicspin> jack..... ok what does that mean?
[12:50] <rblst> RoadHazard: i installed java6, but doesn't make any difference: /usr/share/themes/Human/gtk-2.0/gtkrc:71: Engine "ubuntulooks" is unsupported, ignoring
[12:50] <hischild> Wander_w, my atheros 5007EG was a pain to install tbh ...
[12:50] <madrazr> some one please help me, I have setup a http server on my PC, others are able to access it through my browser, But they can access only /var/www of my system. How can I change it to access other folders??
[12:50] <Jack_Sparrow> isotropicspin, add that line to your xorg
[12:50] <Jack_Sparrow> and remove one that says vesa if it is in there
[12:51] <Wander_w> hischild: really? I thought they had fully opensource drivers? well, thanks for the tip, I'll put Intel card on the top of my list as of now
[12:51] <familiar> yay it removed! Thanks soundray!
[12:51] <isotropicspin> jack there is no vesa.... but under driver it says "wacom" alot
[12:52] <Jack_Sparrow> isotropicspin, please run this again and give me a link when you are done  sudo apt-get install pastebinit  && cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | pastebinit
[12:52] <Lamego> mad_max02, an http server is not commonly used for system wide contents sharing, if you want to share a particular folder, you can create an alias for it
[12:52] <Wander_w> Mazus: edit /etc/httpd/httpd.conf or /etc/apache2/apache.conf
[12:52] <Jack_Sparrow> isotropicspin, dont worry abot wacom
[12:52] <hischild> Wander_w, the 5007EG is sometimes recognized as the 5006 which doesn't work for it ... i had to recompile one specific version for it, and then it worked
[12:52] <RoadHazard> rblst: check this out http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-149161.html
[12:53] <Wander_w> hischild: Oh, so it's just one card? Let's put Atheros back on my list then :)
[12:53] <hischild> Wander_w, it's the only card i've used so far, as well as a sitecom one ... so i can't say much for the others
[12:53] <hischild> Wander_w, they do have a shitty range though ..
[12:54] <isotropicspin> jack.... paste.stgraber.org/1525
[12:54] <Wander_w> hischild: sitecom doesn't make their own chips now do they?
[12:54] <Jack_Sparrow> k
[12:54] <rblst> RoadHazard: i've read this before, it's from 2006 and it doesn't solve my problem :(
[12:54] <hischild> Wander_w, i dunno ... the brand on it says sitecom, but if they have their own chips? ... i'm not sure ...
[12:54] <hischild> Wander_w, easy way to check by any chance?
[12:54] <RoadHazard> ok, I'm no more help, java aint really my forte, sorry
[12:54] <soundray> familiar: good. What we did is to shortcut the clean-up process. I don't expect that it will cause any problems, but if you do find any remnants of the package, that will have been the reason.
[12:55] <rblst> RoadHazard: thanks anyway :)
[12:55] <Wander_w> hischild: I've tested an Intel IPW2100 (good, good range) a Ralink2500 USB dongle (good, bad range) and a Broadcom BCM43xx (so-so, good range)
[12:55] <Jack_Sparrow> isotropicspin, not good...
[12:55] <Wander_w> hischild: look at which driver Ubuntu is loading for it
[12:56] <isotropicspin> jack...... really?
[12:56] <adac2> which repository contains skype2.0 64 bit?
[12:56] <isotropicspin> jack..... thats poo!
[12:56] <erawfish> a!skype
[12:56] <isotropicspin> jack... why?
[12:56] <erawfish> !skype
[12:56] <Jack_Sparrow> isotropicspin, http://paste.stgraber.org/1519             is what you want      copy and paste the entire thing from the web (without line numbers)   into gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[12:56] <ubotu> To install Skype on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype - To record on Skype, check: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SkypeRecordingHowto
[12:56] <isotropicspin> jack ok will do again!
[12:56] <Jack_Sparrow> isotropicspin, it does not have any of the resolutions we added earlier
[12:57] <isotropicspin> jack.... i don't know what happened maybe i didn't save
[12:57] <isotropicspin> jack will give it a go
[12:57] <hischild> Wander_w, i'm currently on my laptop with the atheros card ... i'll check once my main box fully booted of my external drive ...
[12:57] <Jack_Sparrow> isotropicspin, copy the lower window not the upper one with line numbers
[12:57] <familiar> soundray: thanks.
[12:57] <isotropicspin> jack... ok i thought i did
[12:57] <isotropicspin> let me try again.
[12:57] <isotropicspin> jack thanks alot
[12:58] <Jack_Sparrow> isotropicspin, np
[12:58] <zoli2k> Hi! Is there any C++ config parser on ubuntu? (except of boost dev. which has 30MB).
[12:58] <hischild> !install
[12:58] <ubotu> Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues - Don't want to use a CD? Try http://tinyurl.com/3exghs - See also !automate
[12:58] <Jack_Sparrow> isotropicspin, after you save it.. sudo apt-get install pastebinit  && cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | pastebinit               and give me a link so I can double check it
[12:59] <vampiregirl> So now that I've downloaded it, (and come back), I need to burn a CD of it?
[12:59] <Jack_Sparrow> vampiregirl, yes
[12:59] <vampiregirl> Yay! Okay, cool. One problem solved!.
[13:00] <Jack_Sparrow> vampiregirl, google up a copy of isorecorder or one of the others mentioned.. and we can go from there
[13:00] <Wander_w> if it's a .iso file, you need to burn it as an image
[13:00] <vampiregirl> k
[13:00] <isotropicspin> jack.... ok
[13:01] <vampiregirl> As far as I know, I've found it.
[13:01] <Jack_Sparrow> Wander_w, That is why I tell people to use the free isorecorder or (2)   as that is all it does, not file vs image issues
[13:01] <ibou> i just created a swap partition which works (after a mkswap and swapon) on the shut down when i chose hibernate. The problem is that my system boot normaly on reboot (do not resume). Can anyone help ?
[13:01] <Jack_Sparrow> vampiregirl, make sure you get the right one for your service pack
[13:01] <khalid> Hi people, i would like to have a howto link for the freeradius server please !
[13:01] <Wander_w> Jack_Sparrow: ah, great idea, I didn't know that was all it did
[13:01] <Lamego> zoli2k, you mean, a C/C++ library for config files parsing ? There are several libraries for that, don't ask me the names
[13:01] <vampiregirl> and then download that too, right?
[13:02] <Jack_Sparrow> Wander_w, it adds a right click burn to cd just like we have in ubuntu
[13:02] <skaka> #linuxac
[13:02] <isotropicspin> jack........ paste.stgraber.org/1526
[13:02] <Jack_Sparrow> isotropicspin, let me know when you have the link ready for me
[13:02] <fvwmnet> ibou: did you edit /etc/fstab?
[13:02] <Wander_w> ibou: you need to specify which partition to use as the resume partion on the kernel command line
[13:02] <Jack_Sparrow> k
[13:03] <RoadHazard> khalid http://wiki.freeradius.org/SQL_HOWTO
[13:03] <khalid> thanks a lot.
[13:03] <RoadHazard> welcome
[13:03] <Jack_Sparrow> isotropicspin, looks good
[13:03] <Wander_w> Jack_Sparrow: wow, that sounds really easy, maybe windows is ready for mainstream use then ;-)
[13:03] <Jack_Sparrow> isotropicspin, time to test it  ....
[13:03] <isotropicspin> jack... this is going to come in use for the future by the way because I am actually going to try to use this box for VJing....
[13:04] <isotropicspin> jack..... thanks alot i will give it a go!!!!!!!!!!!
[13:04] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[13:04] <marx2k> so I am in PuTTY, SSHing to my home computer. I am using BitchX via screen. Is there any way for me to also run a gAIM client in the same session and kind of... halve the BitchX window to get both going or should I just open up another PuTTY session?
[13:04] <AudioSenseCD> Jack_Sparrow: budz gud am again i just some info what apps should i use to run a exe file on ubuntu
[13:04] <khalid> RoadHazard thanks a lot......
[13:04] <RoadHazard> quite welcome
[13:04] <zoli2k> Lamego: I already found some, but I want to be sure that the library will be actively maintained in future distributions.
[13:05] <vampiregirl> Okay, I've now accomplished downloading the isorecorder.
[13:05] <zoli2k> Lamego: in linux distributions.
[13:05] <RoadHazard> AudioSenseCD: as in a windows exe? wine
[13:05] <soundray> marx2k: in screen: Ctrl-A S
[13:06] <Lamego> zoli2k, the best option it to use a library known to be used by other packages, that increases the changes that it will kept maintaned
[13:06] <Jack_Sparrow> AudioSenseCD, HI.. So you want to run windows apps.. which ones
[13:06] <AudioSenseCD> RoadHazard: yes sir can i run the game in wine
[13:06] <Jack_Sparrow> !appdb
[13:06] <ubotu> The Wine Application DB is a database of applications and help for !Windows programs that run under !WINE: http://appdb.winehq.org
[13:07] <RoadHazard> AudioSenseCD: check their database here http://appdb.winehq.org/
[13:07] <twoshadetod> what is the package for dual core kernel? I have a dv6000 with core 2 duo
[13:07] <zoli2k> Lamego: Sure
[13:07] <AudioSenseCD> Jack_Sparrow: like games windows flasher like (NSpro flasher, Griffin, Power Flasher... etc.)
[13:07] <Combatjuan> Is there a way to move a process from one part of the process tree to another?  For instance, I have apt-get running under a terminal in X but I want to restart X so I'd like to move the apt-get process so that instead, it is a child of init.  Is there a way to do this?
[13:07] <Slart> twoshadetod: I think they use the same kernel for all modern processors
[13:07] <soundray> twoshadetod: there is no such thing. Ubuntu will make use of both cores automatically
[13:07] <Slart> !smp | twoshadetod
[13:07] <ubotu> twoshadetod: Background to the decision to replace -686, k7 and -smp kernels with -generic can be found here https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2006-August/019983.html (the -386 kernel is still available if needed)
[13:07] <Jack_Sparrow> AudioSenseCD, read the db
[13:07] <vampiregirl> Jack_Sparrow: I've downloaded the isorecorder, but at this point I'm not totally sure what to do with it.
[13:07] <Lamego> twoshadetod, the generic kernel supports dual core systems
[13:08] <twoshadetod> dang
[13:08] <twoshadetod> i reformatted and my computer is crawling now
[13:08] <twoshadetod> when i am in multiple tabs on my browser
[13:08] <twoshadetod> i waas hoping that was the reason :(
[13:08] <AudioSenseCD> Jack_Sparrow: sure thx
[13:08] <Jack_Sparrow> vampiregirl, did you run the isorecorder download yet
[13:08] <vampiregirl> I think so; it's installed at any rate.
[13:08] <twoshadetod> is there a good diagnostic program ?
[13:08] <Combatjuan> twoshadetod: One possiblity is that DMA got turned off on your hard drive.  That happened to me once when I had similar symptoms.
[13:09] <BubblegumTate> I swear to god
[13:09] <hischild> what do the lba flags stand for in parted?
[13:09] <Jack_Sparrow> vampiregirl, right click the ubuntu iso and you should now have an option for burning the image
[13:09] <twoshadetod> Combatjuan: how would I check that? is that in bios or in the os?
[13:09] <BubblegumTate> I have yet to get two isos with the same md5
[13:09] <Combatjuan> twoshadetod: hdparm -a I think
[13:09] <BubblegumTate> and I've downloaded 5 from 3 different mirrors
[13:09] <isotropicspin> jack..... back where i started.... the screen isn't filling up to widescreen
[13:09] <hischild> BubblegumTate, use the torrent, it has built-in hash checking, which would allow you to get a good iso
[13:10] <Combatjuan> twoshadetod: Sorry, hdparm /dev/xda -i
[13:10] <isotropicspin> jack.... could it have something to do with HorizSync?
[13:10] <Combatjuan> twoshadetod: (where "xda" is your device for example "sda1")
[13:10] <Wander_w> hischild: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logical_block_addressing
[13:10] <isotropicspin> jack...... it seems to me 30 - 70 is wrong
[13:10] <hischild> Wander_w, thank you
[13:10] <BubblegumTate> god, but the torrents take so LONG
[13:10] <vampiregirl> Jack_Sparrow: Okay, I've done that and the nice blue window popped up, and I've selected the source, what do I put in the "recorder" box?
[13:10] <Jack_Sparrow> isotropicspin, go to system... pref..screen res.. and see what it shows now
[13:10] <twoshadetod> thank you I'm checking now to see which mine is listed as
[13:10] <marx2k> Ok, I do Ctrl-a S in screen and it splits the window into two, but when I go into the second (new) screen window, I dont get a shell prompt or anything. it's a blank window
[13:10] <BubblegumTate> I guess I don't have much alternative
[13:10] <twoshadetod> what is that lspci?
[13:11] <Wander_w> twoshadetod: lspci is a program that shows installed PCI devices on your system
[13:11] <hischild> BubblegumTate, in my opinion they are usually faster ... the normal mirrors i only get around 500, but the torrent reaches almost double that
[13:11] <isotropicspin> jack.... shows 1440X 900 which is manufacturers rec.
[13:11] <BubblegumTate> I get really bad times with torrents
[13:11] <ReL1K> whats the hardy heron channel?
[13:11] <BubblegumTate> I think it's my evil ISP
[13:11] <hischild> ubuntu+1
[13:11] <ReL1K> ahh
[13:11] <ReL1K> thanks
[13:11] <Jack_Sparrow> vampiregirl, it should be self explanatory... one sec
[13:11] <ReL1K> saw motd sorry
[13:11] <hischild> np
[13:11] <RoadHazard> ReL1K: #ubuntu+1
[13:11] <twoshadetod> how do i find out what my hard drive is listed as?
[13:12] <Jack_Sparrow> isotropicspin, is that the current res?
[13:12] <vampiregirl> Jack_Sparrow: There's only one option: e:/no media.
[13:12] <twoshadetod> ok found it
[13:12] <hischild> vampiregirl, is there a cd in the drive?
[13:12] <isotropicspin> jack.... I assume not, although I can't measure every pixle there is a 2inch black band on the left hand side of my screen
[13:12] <vampiregirl> There is now. I'm sorry, it's a bit early for me.
[13:12] <vampiregirl> By like three hours.
[13:12] <Wander_w> BubblegumTate: for torrents to go fast, you need to make sure that your computer can be contacted directly, so not behind a firewall or router (you can (and should) keep those, but instruct them to forward the bittorrentports to your computer)
[13:13] <DOOM_NX> does anybody know if AMD HD3850 AGP works well with Ubuntu?
[13:13] <vampiregirl> Okay, that was stupid of me. Thanks.
[13:13] <hischild> vampiregirl, we all have those times :-)
[13:13] <Jack_Sparrow> vampiregirl, that should just be your drive letter and blank..writeable..useable
[13:13] <faust> oh je suis ici
[13:14] <Wander_w> et je suis ne pas ici
[13:14] <Jack_Sparrow> vampiregirl, Sorry.. I didnt think to ask if you had inserted a bland cd yet
[13:14] <DOOM_NX> generally speaking, how are ATI drivers working with ubuntu?
[13:14] <Jack_Sparrow> hischild, thanks
[13:15] <vampiregirl> Sorry, it's a bit early. I'm really not this blonde as the day goes on.
[13:15] <Wander_w> DOOM_NX: usually they're ok
[13:15] <vampiregirl> Thank you.
[13:15] <Wander_w> DOOM_NX: though not as good as NVidia ones
[13:15] <hischild> Jack_Sparrow, you're welcome
[13:15] <marx2k> Can someone name a good ncurses-based client?
[13:15] <isotropicspin> jack.... so its like it was when I initially started up..... on some of the screen is being used.....
[13:15] <hischild> vampiregirl, you should see me when i'm sleepy ...
[13:15] <isotropicspin> let me try logging in again
[13:15] <Jack_Sparrow> hischild, I just drew a blank...  but not as in blank cd..
[13:15] <DOOM_NX> Wander_w, u mean i won't have 3D acceleration?
[13:16] <RoadHazard> DOOM_NX: which ati card do you have?
[13:16] <twoshadetod> Combatjuan: will you check out a pastebin for a sec?
[13:16] <DOOM_NX> how about DVD acceleration, or Blu-Ray?
[13:16] <kalgo> ok
[13:16] <DOOM_NX> i want to buy 3850 AGP
[13:16] <hischild> DOOM_NX, the ati ones are capable of 3d acc, but they're not as good as the nvidia ones ... they have a general better support
[13:16] <Wander_w> DOOM_NX: No, you probably will have 3D acceleration, but it probably is slower a bit than in Windows, as opposed to NVidia card who are faster in Linux than they are in Windows
[13:16] <erawfish> DOOM_NX: there is no video acceleration for either ati or nvidia under linux unfortunately
[13:16] <RoadHazard> DOOM_NX: I'd say if youre going to run ubuntu and you havent bought it yet, go nvidia
[13:17] <Wander_w> erawfish: sorry?
[13:17] <hischild> Jack_Sparrow, hehe .. coffee helps a lot on this end ..
[13:17] <Combatjuan> twoshadetod: Sure.
[13:17] <DOOM_NX> i am running ubuntu with nvidia 6800 128MB
[13:17] <erawfish> Wander_w: neither UVD nor purevideo work under linux
[13:17] <DOOM_NX> but i was thinking of a small upgrade to play the new games but if linux is gonna stop working i won't buy it...
[13:18] <isotropicspin> jack.... yep back where i started....... ah!
[13:18] <Wander_w> erawfish: oh that... you *can* use XVMC with NVIdia card
[13:18] <erawfish> DOOM_NX: you can get a newer nvidia card. PCI-E or AGP?
[13:18] <erawfish> Wander_w: XVMC is?
[13:18] <DOOM_NX> agp
[13:18] <terminal> hiiiiiiii
[13:18] <Wander_w> erawfish: X Video Motion Compensation, a MPEG2 hardware acceleration technique
[13:19] <Jack_Sparrow> isotropicspin, HAve you enabled the restricted drivers yet
[13:19] <RoadHazard> DOOM_NX: it appears the 8.42.3 driver supports that card with aiglx, so yes itll work
[13:19] <DOOM_NX> RoadHazard, thanks a lot
[13:19] <Jack_Sparrow> isotropicspin, Even if you are back at the same res.. you have learned alot
[13:20] <isotropicspin> jack.... i have now enabled the restricted drivers
[13:20] <isotropicspin> jack...... yep that is some of the point of the exercise
[13:20] <Jack_Sparrow> log out and in again
[13:21] <isotropicspin> jack..... i have got a sense for how tweakable linux is, which is empowering..... and disempowering because I haven't got the tech knowledge yet
[13:21] <isotropicspin> hehe
[13:21] <terminal> in my lapi  there r 2 os wista n ubuntu how i increase the size of disk of ubuntu
[13:21] <Jack_Sparrow> isotropicspin, but you do have us
[13:21] <RoadHazard> isotropicspin: itll come
[13:21] <hischild> isotropicspin, i think i've learned more here in just a few weeks, then in the past years
[13:22] <Jack_Sparrow> :)
[13:22] <Jack_Sparrow> terminal, use livecd and gparted  as you cant resize a mounted partition
[13:23] <madrazr> hii all
[13:24] <terminal> jack sparrow , then i dont need to install ubuntu again
[13:24] <madrazr> I have apache running on my comp, and I have setup a DynDNS Domain and its working, but the domain is pointing to /var/www. I badly want to change it, how to do that??
[13:24] <madrazr> please help me
[13:24] <isotropicspin> jack........ SW33t!!!!!!! its working!
[13:24] <RoadHazard> madrazr apache or apache 2?
[13:24] <Jack_Sparrow> Uh oh hes back
[13:24] <isotropicspin> jack..... thanks alot!
[13:24] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[13:24] <madrazr> RoadHazard: Apache 2
[13:24] <Lamego> madrazr, dns does not point to a directory, it points to an IP address, you must configure the web server to poing to the expected directory
[13:25] <Jack_Sparrow> isotropicspin, now for the fun.. setup effects
[13:25] <madrazr> Lamego: sorry
[13:25] <vampiregirl> I have one more question, hopefully not involving more black CDs: When I go into VMware and attempt to edit my vm settings, and get into that window, and then into the CD (here we go again) category, and then set it to use ISO image, and it wants me to browse, I see several ubuntu thingys, all with equally nice pictures. Which one should I select?
[13:25] <RoadHazard> madrazr: one moment
[13:25] <isotropicspin> jack.... so it must have been graphics card right?
[13:25] <madrazr> Lamego: I meant that
[13:25] <madrazr> RoadHazard: ok
[13:25] <hischild> Jack_Sparrow, ... that sounded rather funny..
[13:25] <Jack_Sparrow> isotropicspin, combination
[13:25] <madrazr> RoAkSoAx: success
[13:25] <isotropicspin> jack... set up effect?
[13:25] <madrazr> RoAkSoAx: thanks for your help
[13:25] <AngryElf> how do I get thunderbird to stop asking me if I Want to send in plaintext or html everytime I send an email?
[13:25] <madrazr> this morning
[13:25] <Jack_Sparrow> isotropicspin, system  pref    appearance      far right tab
[13:25] <hischild> vampiregirl, you can also select a real drive, the one that you have the cd in, isntead of the iso. However, if you select the iso, you have to select the file that you downloaded before.
[13:26] <madrazr> RoAkSoAx: thanks a lot
[13:26] <Jack_Sparrow> isotropicspin, pick the bottom option
[13:26] <vampiregirl> If I do use iso, which of the equally nice file names should I click?
[13:27] <hischild> vampiregirl, remember that file that you downloaded before? that file :-)
[13:27] <isotropicspin> jack..... ahh ok...... yum i just made the fonts less gross..... what do vis effects do?
[13:27] <isotropicspin> jack...... ahhhh i see! ooo!!
[13:27] <Jack_Sparrow> youll see
[13:27] <isotropicspin> ahhh!!!
[13:28] <RoadHazard> madrazr: sudo nano /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default then change DocumentRoot to your desired directory and Directory /var/www to your directory of choice
[13:28] <hischild> lol ...
[13:28] <isotropicspin> jack..... fuck vista has nothing on this ....... it can't even make the fonts look good
[13:28] <vampiregirl> It wants me to choose between ubuntu.vmdk, ubuntu.vmsd, and ubuntu.vmx.
[13:28] <Lamego> isotropicspin, language
[13:28] <Jack_Sparrow> isotropicspin, Do you have a wheel on your mouse.. point to the top bar of an open window and roll the wheel
[13:28] <isotropicspin> lamego.... sorry
[13:29] <Jack_Sparrow> isotropicspin, G rating in here thanks
[13:29] <LBo> Hi all! Does someone know of gnome-volume-manager alternative for the commandline?
[13:29] <SamuraiDio> hi
[13:29] <marx2k> alsaconf
[13:29] <marx2k> !alsaconf
[13:29] <hischild> vampiregirl, those aren't the files you've downloaded before. The file that you burned to the cd, that is the one you need to select.
[13:29] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about alsaconf - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[13:29] <thux> is it ok upgrade libc6 now?
[13:29] <isotropicspin> jack... that doesn't do anything maybe i should go back into xorg hey
[13:29] <marx2k> !alsaconfig
[13:29] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about alsaconfig - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[13:29] <Jack_Sparrow> nope
[13:29] <rsk> LBo: alsamixer
[13:29] <marx2k> damnit
[13:29] <marx2k> thats the one
[13:29] <Jack_Sparrow> isotropicspin, now we are going to install ccsm
[13:29] <rsk> alsaconf isnt packaged in ubuntu
[13:29] <Jack_Sparrow> !ccsm
[13:29] <ubotu> To enable advanced customization of desktop effects in Ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy), install 'compizconfig-settings-manager'. A new option will appear in your appearance properties - See also !compiz - Help in #compiz-fusion
[13:29] <rsk> and it's a shame.
[13:29] <isotropicspin> jack.... wow! man i just pulled the window around! that rocks!!!
[13:29] <vampiregirl> hischild: Wow. That was totally obvious. I'm not really sure why I didn't realize that.....
[13:29] <LBo> I'm using ivman now, but you have to configure it for automatically mount known disks. I want something to do it automatically
[13:29] <vampiregirl> hischild: Thanks.
[13:30] <RoadHazard> madrazr: that work for you?
[13:30] <Wander_w> isotropicspin: try Windows-tab
[13:30] <Jack_Sparrow> isotropicspin, sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager
[13:30] <LBo> rsk: not volume -> disks
[13:30] <rsk> aha hm
[13:30] <hischild> vampiregirl, you're welcome
[13:30] <sungl> hi, all
[13:30] <madrazr> RoadHazard: 2 mins, checking
[13:30] <SamuraiDio> the ubuntu installer is also a liveCD right? what could be wrong if it freezes after boot?
[13:30] <RoadHazard> madrazr: you'll need to do sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart after that
[13:31] <Jack_Sparrow> SamuraiDio, At start or install press F6 and remove Quiet and Splash from the command line. If it still fails repeat and add noapic acpi=off before the --
[13:31] <madrazr> RoadHazard: Ya I have done that
[13:31] <vampiregirl> hischild: So on using our wonderful cd from before, I click physical drive for that, right?
[13:31] <RoadHazard> madrazr: should work then
[13:31] <Wander_w> SamuraiDio: there's tons of stuff that can be wrong.. CD with errors (try the check option) dodgy hardware...
[13:32] <hischild> vampiregirl, that is correct. And then you select the drive that you put the cd in.
[13:32] <Wander_w> SamuraiDio: ACPI hangs (try noacpi)
[13:32] <isotropicspin> jack ok will do
[13:32] <madrazr> RoadHazard: Ya its working one more question,
[13:32] <RoadHazard> madrazr: shoot
[13:32] <madrazr> RoadHazard: I want this localhost settins for my local development and setup another location to be accessible by others as we do in Virtual Servers for our local machine
[13:32] <madrazr> how do we do that??
[13:33] <vampiregirl> hischild, I have an option of E: or auto detect? I'm thinking auto detect, since E: is blank...
[13:33] <vampiregirl> hischild, that makes me probably wrong, right?
[13:33] <SamuraiDio> Wander_w, sure i haven't tested acpioff.
[13:33] <RoadHazard> madrazr: I'm not real clear on what you wanna do there
[13:33] <hischild> vampiregirl, then select autoselect and see if it can find the drive :-) if not, we'll continue from there. If it does, then it's good :-)
[13:33] <SamuraiDio> i see that other liveCDs (other distros) dont work also
[13:34] <madrazr> RoadHazard: Say when setting up Virtual Server we create another copy of the default file with some other name say madrazr and then change the Document Root for this file, and enable this site also keeping the old one enabled
[13:34] <SamuraiDio> another doubt... what partition editor does ubuntu installer uses? can it safely resize fat32 and ntfs partitions?
[13:34] <Wander_w> SamuraiDio: what kind of computer are you using it on? (Laptop? old/new?)
[13:34] <madrazr> RoadHazard: and in Network->Hosts we add one more entry with say 127.0.0.2 and the new name say madrazr.com
[13:35] <SamuraiDio> Laptop, brand new
[13:35] <madrazr> so when I can use both madrazr.com and localhost on my browser
[13:35] <vampiregirl> hischild: And then for the location above that...? I have a choice between host and client...I'm assuming client because there's a picture of a computer with that one. :)
[13:35] <madrazr> RoadHazard: got it?
[13:35] <Irwing> anybody could help me? i dont know how to install my webcam driver
[13:35] <isotropicspin> jack ok i got that
[13:35] <Jack_Sparrow> isotropicspin,  Next go to system...pref..advanced desktop effects....  On the first page  put check next to rotate cube and desktop cube.. dbl click general settings up closer to the top...  click on desktop size  and set them to 4, 1 and 1  top to bottom
[13:35] <RoadHazard> madrazr: k what you'll need to do is an include in the apache2.conf for the new virtual server
[13:35] <jrib> !webcam > irwing (read the private message from ubotu)
[13:35] <Wander_w> SamuraiDio: what brand?
[13:36] <hischild> vampiregirl, can you make a screenshot of that? i don't have the screen in front of me
[13:36] <Irwing> ok
[13:36] <kondor101> is there a way to force a chkdisk ?
[13:36] <SamuraiDio> Wander_w, its a laptop, very new, but i dont think ubuntu will have problems with modules, maybe with the cam and finger print device
[13:36] <madrazr> RoadHazard: Can you please tell me how to do it?? and where to include apache2.conf and what must be its content
[13:36] <RoadHazard> madrazr: one moment
[13:36] <madrazr> RoadHazard: sure
[13:37] <Jack_Sparrow> !fsck
[13:37] <vampiregirl> hischild: It would be really cool if I knew how to give it to you now.
[13:37] <ubotu> fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo shutdown -F -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot
[13:37] <hischild> vampiregirl, you can upload it on http://imageshack.us and give me the link :-)
[13:37] <isotropicspin> jack.... ok i did that
[13:37] <Wander_w> SamuraiDio: I'm afraid I can't help you any further, sorry
[13:37] <Jack_Sparrow> isotropicspin,  Hold your breath and go for it..       ctrl-alt (Left Mouse Button) and move mouse
[13:38] <kondor101> Jack_Sparrow Ty!
[13:38] <Jack_Sparrow> Hi
[13:38] <SamuraiDio> Wander_w, ok. tnx
[13:38] <isotropicspin> jack..... that.... is..... wicked
[13:38] <isotropicspin> jack those developers have design sense too man
[13:38] <Jack_Sparrow> isotropicspin, So much for ubuntu 101
[13:38] <RoadHazard> madrazr: may I pm you?
[13:39] <hischild> isotropicspin, you can even make it walk if you have 2 desktops ....
[13:39] <isotropicspin> jack.... thanks
[13:39] <isotropicspin> walk?
[13:39] <hischild> yeah, walk
[13:39] <Jack_Sparrow> isotropicspin, go play, we are here when you need us, or just hang and learn when you have time
[13:39] <isotropicspin> heh?
[13:39] <Wander_w> isotropicspin: ok, now try this: hold the windows key, scroll up and down with you mouse
[13:39] <hischild> i'll make you a vid of it
[13:39] <oboy03> how can i configure my desktop cube to have 3d window?
[13:39] <SamuraiDio> is there some good guide on installing ubuntu on laptops?

[13:39] <madrazr> RoadHazard: sure
[13:40] <vampiregirl> hischild: Whoops. How'd all that crap get in there...oh well.
[13:40] <Wander_w> isotropicspin: yeah :D also try with alt and scroll :)
[13:40] <madrazr> RoadHazard: whats there to ask??
[13:40] <s-h-a-k-a> hey
[13:40] <s-h-a-k-a> How can I format a drive
[13:40] <s-h-a-k-a> in Ubuntu
[13:40] <s-h-a-k-a> its not the same drive that the os is running on
[13:40] <Wander_w> s-h-a-k-a: mkfs
[13:40] <isotropicspin> wander...... ahhhhhhhh! awesome!
[13:40] <Pici> s-h-a-k-a: Gparted would be the easiest way
[13:40] <dgjones> s-h-a-k-a, look into gparted
[13:40] <s-h-a-k-a> ok
[13:41] <Wander_w> isotropicspin: lol... one more: try windows-key + tab
[13:41] <hischild> vampiregirl, aah that one ... uhm to be hones,t i'm not sure what's the difference between them ... but i think you can just leave it at default
[13:41] <SamuraiDio> s-h-a-k-a, this is if ou want to change the fs, if just want to erase it, just delete
[13:41] <vampiregirl> hischild: Thank you. I'll come back and work on this later; I've gotta go somewhere.
[13:41] <Jack_Sparrow> Wander_w, I have 3d windows floating off the cube and fishies inside the cube.. way cool

[13:44] <bei18> ...
[13:44] <Mim1> bei18:  This is going to sound silly too, but did you notice how the internet taskbar applets look and behave diferently? Did you try pressing left click instead of right, (or vice versa) to see if it shows you the available connections? (Is this wireless btw?)

[13:47] <isotropicspin> of course he will probably be disappointed you can't run adobe stuff on there

[13:50] <vignesh> can i install both kubuntu and ubuntu on same pc?? will there be any problem in configuring grub for that?
[13:50] <Doublenoob> I'm asking what is the directory of the system path and what does it contain.
[13:50] <Jack_Sparrow> Doublenoob, roadmap so commands can find files you want to run
[13:51] <dgjones> Doublenoob, there's a reference to system path in this link for Dapper, not sure if its still valid though (its under the heading "Under the hood") http://www.ubuntu.com/GetUbuntu/releasenotes/606

[13:51] <Dmole> ok :) I have some working boxes and one that is not finding my DNS
[13:51] <Lamego> vignesh, you just need to install one of them, the other part can be installed via a meta package, like ubuntu-desktop or kubuntu-desktop

[13:52] <audio> Jack_Sparrow: hey amigo i install qemu where do i find it
[13:52] <Lamego> vignesh, they will exist simultaneous, ubuntu or kubuntu are just different set of packages, they are not different systems
[13:53] <Dmole> so where do i look to find out why? (ifconfig info is the same)
[13:53] <Lamego> there will not be 2 entries on grub, you will select the windows manager on the login screen
[13:53] <vignesh> Lamego, can u plz tel abt that in detail?? i dont get u..
[13:53] <vignesh> Lamego, oh fine fine..
[13:53] <Lamego> when logging in, you will be able to selec either gnome or kde
[13:54] <vignesh> Lamego, oh okay ty.. wat abt installin another linux distro like debian or fedora..?? i jus wanna try out smethin in linux..
[13:54] <genii> Dmole: Compare also the /etc/resolv.conf files, that is where the nameserver info is at
[13:54] <Lamego> vignesh, well, if use different partitions, depending on their installers they may setup multilple grub entries, or not...
[13:54] <amenado> vignesh-> no problem having two linux distro with grub
[13:55] <vignesh> where will the menu.lst reside in that case??
[13:55] <amenado> vignesh-> same place /boot/grub/menu.lst
[13:55] <vignesh> amenado, is that a common partition??
[13:55] <Lamego> vignesh, it will be the one from your last grub install
[13:55] <minimec> vignesh: For testing i normally use VirtualBox and a viartual installation. Works great but without 3d acceleration.
[13:55] <Stueh> G'day all! =)
[13:56] <Lamego> it will use the partition has setup on your last grub-install, regardless of the partition you choose to boot from
[13:56] <Stueh> Erm, I got a we question, if perhaps someone could help me out?
[13:56] <amenado> vignesh when are you going to take the plunge and stop asking questions?
[13:56] <Jack_Sparrow> vignesh, Whatever you install last will have the grub and control.. it may differ from what it would be if you instll ubuntu last
[13:57] <Mim3> !ask > Stueh
[13:57] <Stueh> Or not =\
[13:57] <Lamego> amenado, could you please not interfere if you are not willing to help ?
[13:57] <Stueh> Heh
[13:57] <vignesh> Jack_Sparrow, ty
[13:57] <Dmole> genii you are my hero !
[13:57] <vignesh> Lamego, ty
[13:57] <audio> Jack_Sparrow: hey amigo i install qemu where do i find it
[13:57] <Stueh> Well, (new to Ubunutu here, tried it out and currently installing a few things)
[13:58] <Jack_Sparrow> audio, No idea.. is it not in the menus.. I dont do wine or any of that stuff
[13:58] <amenado> Lamego-> sometimes a user need to be nudge, or else they never take it..
[13:58] <Stueh> I'm trying to install flash (for firefox)
[13:58] <Tengu> hello world
[13:58] <Jack_Sparrow> Stueh, How did you install things
[13:58] <amenado> Lamego-> have you been around much?
[13:58] <Doublenoob> Ok, i'll make the question more specific as it was a bit vague, what is the purpose of the "system path" and what is the directory of it in the file-system. I am a "Doublenoob" so i may not understand but i greatly appreciate all answers as i'm trying to sort out a problem with Realplayer in Firefox.
[13:58] <audio> Jack_Sparrow:  he he he thx
[13:58] <Jack_Sparrow> !flash | Stueh
[13:58] <ubotu> Stueh: To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash (for !Dapper and !Edgy, a recent version is available in !backports) - See also !Restricted and !Gnash
[13:58] <Stueh> using apt-get, not a problem, it's installed, but on a page in the forums they said I had to do sudo update-flashplayer
[13:58] <Tengu> I'm trying to boot Hardy on PXE.... is there any documentation about it ? "gutsy" method just fails...
[13:59] <hischild> Doublenoob, have you considered showing the problem in general to us, so we may be able to help with that?
[13:59] <amenado> Tengu-> !hardy
[13:59] <dgjones> Tengu, try asking ini #ubuntu+1, thats where the support for hardy is
[13:59] <Jack_Sparrow> Stueh,  I take everything in the forums with a grain of salt
[13:59] <Tengu> dgjones: thanks :)
[13:59] <Stueh> When I try to do that, I get a message "automatic installation failed due to network problems or upstream changes"
[13:59] <Stueh> Jack_Sparrow, ah, my bad =\
[14:00] <Jack_Sparrow> Stueh, any yahoo can add to the forum, we try to flush out the really bad advice
[14:00] <andy_> can anyone here answer a question?
[14:01] <Doublenoob> That is what I'm doing on this chatroom, hischild.
[14:01] <hischild> !anyone | andy_
[14:01] <ubotu> andy_: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[14:01] <andy_> about how to mount my hdb hard drive?
[14:01] <amenado> andy_-> internal?
[14:01] <andy_> what is the terminal coding for that?
[14:01] <hischild> Doublenoob, have you explained what the problem is you are having with firefox and realplaer?
[14:01] <andy_> yea
[14:01] <Stueh> Jack_Sparrow,  So, any suggestions?
[14:01] <Lamego> mount device path
[14:01] <Doublenoob> andy_:, I agree with you.
[14:01] <Dissentor> I need some help installing the madwifi driver. When I try to run the scripts, I get "FATAL: Module wlan is in use." Anyone know how I might go about resolving this?
[14:01] <amenado> andy_-> it was not detected at boot?
[14:01] <Jack_Sparrow> Stueh, Does flash currently work?
[14:01] <vignesh> how do i change my boot splash screen??
[14:01] <jrib> Doublenoob: type "echo $PATH" in a shell.  That is your path.  I'll explain it to you after you do that
[14:02] <andy_> not on ubuntu7.1
[14:02] <Stueh> Jack_Sparrow, nope =(
[14:02] <amenado> andy usually its mount -t type /dev/sdb1 /mountpoint
[14:02] <Doublenoob> Thanks jrid!
[14:02] <Stueh> I get the feeling breaking down in the corner and crying might work, but I could be wrong
[14:02] <hischild> Dissentor, what command gives you that error?
[14:02] <Jack_Sparrow> Stueh, open synaptic  and reinstall flashplugin-nonfree
[14:02] <Dissentor> ./madwifi-unload.bash
[14:03] <Doublenoob> JRIB - Ok, typed the command.
[14:03] <JonathanD> is there a way to create links to terminal profiles?
[14:03] <Jack_Sparrow> Stueh, I need to ask if you are using Firefox or something else
[14:03] <Dissentor> I've already typed in "sudo ifconfig ath0 down" same with wifi0.
[14:03] <hischild> Dissentor, is your wireless currently connected?
[14:03] <jrib> Doublenoob: you got a list of directories, correct?
[14:03] <Dissentor> No. I'm currently on my desktop running XP.
[14:03] <Stueh> Jack_Sparrow, just Firefox
[14:03] <Jack_Sparrow> good
[14:04] <Stueh> Got addicted to it while on XP:)
[14:04] <Signil> has any1 tried hotwire?
[14:04] <hischild> Dissentor, i mean, at the time that you tried to run that command?
[14:04] <Jack_Sparrow> Stueh, have you already installed java
[14:04] <andy_> andy@andy-desktop:~$ echo $PATH
[14:04] <andy_> /usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games
[14:04] <Dissentor> Nope.
[14:04] <Doublenoob> JRIB - Yes.
[14:04] <faijoh_> hi...
[14:04] <minimec> Dissentor: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=451125
[14:04] <faijoh_> fkfilllp
[14:04] <Signil> has any1 tried hotwire?
[14:05] <Dissentor> I read that, but none of the suggestions worked. I'll read it again though.
[14:05] <hischild> Dissentor, it probably tried to unload a module. The problem lies in that there is another module that is currently using it ...
[14:05] <Stueh> Jack_Sparrow, you're having me on, I need Java to run flash? =\
[14:05]  * Stueh installs it
[14:06] <andy_> can anyone tell me a forum that has step by step directions?  to mount my hdb harddrive?
[14:06] <Jack_Sparrow> Stueh, No, but most people wanting flash also are installing java
[14:06] <andy_> since, i don't know how
[14:06] <Stueh> Jack_Sparrow, Ooooh, righto. I tend to avoid java at all costs, unless it's needed =\
[14:06] <Jack_Sparrow> Stueh, did it show up as installed already in synaptic?
[14:06] <jrib> Doublenoob: when you type any command into your shell.  For example the program "gedit", your shell searches in those directories for a file called gedit to execute.  That's how the system path works.  It probably has nothing to do with getting realplayer to work.  See ubotu's link on how to install realplayer:
[14:07] <jrib> !realplayer > doublenoob (read the private message from ubotu)
[14:07] <Stueh> Jack_Sparrow, ja, so I did a reinstall
[14:07] <Wander_w> Stueh: Hey! I'm a Java developer, you must use java more!
[14:07] <dgjones> Signil, its available in the Hardy repo's, might be worth you asking in #ubuntu+1 where the testing/development queries for Hardy are being asked
[14:07] <Stueh> Wander_w, you're crazy! =P
[14:07] <RoadHazard> madman!
[14:07] <Jack_Sparrow> Stueh, give it a shot.. I dont think you need to log out and in to get that
[14:07] <Signil> hmm k
[14:07] <Wander_w> Stueh: I'm not crazy, my salary is :P
[14:07] <jtmitchum> I have a FAT32 harddrive that's acting super goofy... what's the best way to thoroughly check the drive?
[14:07] <Jack_Sparrow> Wander_w, Now I know where to direct complaints
[14:08] <Stueh> What's the bash.org quote? Java language is a good example of programing, but a horrible example of applications? :P
[14:08] <Mim3> *nods*
[14:08] <Mim3> Sounds about right
[14:08] <Signil> its supposed to work on gutsy too rite..
[14:08] <Stueh> Wander_w,  Aow, I'm just a lonely school it admin, not much pay there
[14:08] <mcquaid> regarding restoring grub, on the very first instructions here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[14:08] <Stueh> Jack_Sparrow, righto! Installed, let's test...
[14:08] <Signil> srry feisty*
[14:08] <mcquaid> it says boot off live cd and run grub.  does one not have to mount and then do chroot first anymore?  it makes no mention of that
[14:09] <Wander_w> Stueh: But anyway, what makes you hate Java so much?
[14:09] <Jack_Sparrow> Wander_w, OT
[14:09] <Lamego> mcquaid, you should chroot to the directory, so that grub uses your existing menu
[14:09] <andy_> anyone have a moment to msg outside this chatroom to help me load a 2nd hard drive?
[14:09] <dgjones> Signil, I don't know, its not in the repo's, so you'd have to be compiling it yourself or finding an unofficial package
[14:09] <Doublenoob> Ah! The garble is all starting to make sense! THNX!
[14:09] <mcquaid> Lamego, yes that's what i thought, but the guide doesn't mention that
[14:09] <jtmitchum> andy_:  load a second harddrive?
[14:10] <jrib> andy_: what filesystem?
[14:10] <Signil> yes i knw..
[14:10] <andy_> yes please
[14:10] <andy_> hdb?
[14:10] <Stueh> Wander_w, I don't really HATE it as such... I tend to just avoid it. As far as I've seen, most applications that run on Java are slower than others
[14:10] <mcquaid> Lamego, i don't see how the instructions as is, could work
[14:10] <Stueh> As an example
[14:10] <jrib> andy_: ext3, vfat, ntfs, etc...
[14:10] <jtmitchum> What's the best way to check a harddisk with a FAT32 partition on it? and I mean sector by sector
[14:10] <andy_> ext 3
[14:10] <jrib> !fstab > andy_ (read the private message from ubotu)
[14:10] <jtmitchum> andy_:  by load do you mount?
[14:10] <Stueh> At work, my boos INSISTS on having a proxy that uses Java, and it'll take around 30seconds to connect etc. to get you login box and then another 30seconds to be redirected =\
[14:11] <jrib> andy_: create a mount point and then set up a line in fstab for it
[14:11] <Jack_Sparrow> Stueh, Wander_w    Offtopic....  :)
[14:11] <andy_> yes, mount
[14:11] <Wander_w> Stueh: Java is indeed slow on startup, but I've seen java program's beat the living crap out of C programs (easily 10 times as fast)
[14:11] <Jgonick> Another newbie question, in the past writing to an ntfs partition was risky.  Is it still that way?  (I'm using a dual boot Ubuntu/WinXP)  --no fat32
[14:12] <Jack_Sparrow> Jgonick, No works fine now
[14:12] <vignesh> how do i change my boot splash screen??
[14:12] <Lamego> Wander_w, just if they are very poorly coded, per the tecnhnical nature, a Java program is expected to be slower than a C compiled program
[14:12] <rblst> i want to run a java application in 7.10, but it says: /usr/share/themes/Human/gtk-2.0/gtkrc:70: Engine "ubuntulooks" is unsupported, ignoring
[14:12] <rblst> /usr/share/themes/Human/gtk-2.0/gtkrc:240: Priority specification is unsupported, ignoring
[14:12] <Wander_w> Stueh: hmm.. I why not just use squid?
[14:12] <Stueh> Wander_w, Can't say I've used a program written in C, or that I've known to be written in C =\ For the record, just came off WindowsXP (Giving Ubunut a FAIR go) and I think Jack_Sparrow doesn't like our discussion, do you Jack? =P
[14:12] <Lamego> Jgonick, it is safe now, the latest drive has been widely tested
[14:13] <Jack_Sparrow> Wander_w, Stueh dont make me get out my stick
[14:13] <Stueh> Jack_Sparrow,  =) I'll be good!
[14:13] <Jgonick> Jack_Sparrow:  Just to clarify,  I can edit any documents while under Linux and XP will still be happy..
[14:13] <Wander_w> Lamego: well.... in theory Java CAN be faster than C, because Java uses JIT, which can apply optimisations depending on changing runtime conditions. Something which C cannot
[14:13] <Stueh> Jack_Sparrow, back on subject, no luck with the flash, just realised I have an older version of firefox, reckon it would be worthwhile to upgrade that while I'm at it? (Crrently doing Java now =\)
[14:14] <Jack_Sparrow> !pm | faijoh
[14:14] <ubotu> faijoh: Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can also benefit AND help you. Please don't PM a user in the channel without asking first, some find it rude.
[14:14] <steph_> is there someone who knows about ubuntu and LTSP (I know, there is a ltsp channel, but nobody can answer my question)?
[14:14] <Jack_Sparrow> Stueh, cant hurt
[14:14] <Lamego> Wander_w, there are some theories which don't have much use in practice :P
[14:14] <Wander_w> Stueh: The Linux kernel (that Ubuntu uses (so this IS ontopic)) is coded in C
[14:14] <rblst> i want to run a java application in 7.10, but it says:  Engine "ubuntulooks" is unsupported, ignoriing
[14:15] <RoadHazard> steph_: which version?
[14:15] <jtmitchum> Can i run fsck on an unmounted storage device without using single user mode?
[14:15] <Lamego> rblst, what java app is it ?
[14:15] <Lamego> jtmitchum, yes you can
[14:15] <amenado> jtmitchum-> yes
[14:15] <rblst> Lamego: it's IBM RSA installer
[14:15] <Stueh> Wander_w, pushing the line are we?  GUESS it's ontopic. I didn't know that it was written in C. Granted, I didn't know what it was written in in the first place
[14:15] <steph_> RoaHazard: LTSP 5 , ubuntu 8.04
[14:15] <jtmitchum> Lamego: and it's relatively safe?
[14:16] <Lamego> jtmitchum, it is safe, that is the standard way you are expected to use fsck
[14:16] <Stueh> Now, time to update firefox >.<
[14:16] <RoadHazard> steph_: thats #ubuntu+1 turf
[14:16] <amenado> steph_-> hardy support is on #ubuntu+1
[14:16] <lunaphyte_> hmm, i thought /boot couldn't be on lvm?
[14:16] <Lamego> single user mode, is not a regular use :)
[14:16] <jtmitchum> sweet
[14:16] <steph_> ok, thans
[14:16] <steph_> *thanks
[14:16] <hischild> Jack_Sparrow, just made a quick vid of a walking compiz-fusion ... since i'm kind of bored :p
[14:17] <Jack_Sparrow> hischild, go compile those addons
[14:17] <Jack_Sparrow> 3d and atlantis
[14:17] <hischild> Jack_Sparrow, yeah ... i know i should ... but i've got so many other things to do ...
[14:17] <hischild> but i hat eto do those
[14:17] <hischild> so i'm bored
[14:17] <Wander_w> Stueh: The kernel that Ubuntu uses, is written mostly in C, then some assembly, C++, Makefiles and shellscripts, but mostly C
[14:17] <Jack_Sparrow> hischild, Write me a page with all of those cool keyboard shortcuts..
[14:18] <Stueh> Aow firefox is 8MB. Wish we could go back to the 90's with 150kB programs that would (nowadays) download instantaniously
[14:18] <hischild> hahaha
[14:18] <hischild> Jack_Sparrow, shortcuts from compiz? sure
[14:18] <Stueh> Wander_w, may I ask why it's written in several different languages?
[14:18] <karavoskylo> hello from greece
[14:18] <Stueh> Wander_w, wouldn't it make more sense to have it all in one?
[14:18] <Jack_Sparrow> Wander_w, Stueh that has nothing to do with support...  Ubuntu yes, support no...   /join #Ubuntu-offtopic
[14:18] <rblst> Lamego: this was a bug in 6.10, but i do hope it's eliminated by now
[14:19] <Wander_w> Stueh: No, there are just some things that can't be done, or not effiiently in C
[14:19] <FFighter> I need a good regexp editor for gnome
[14:19] <FFighter> any hints
[14:19] <amenado> FFighter-> you edit with vim or any text editor
[14:20]  * Stueh goes to offtopic channel
[14:20] <karavoskylo> can anybody connect pidgin to msn???? i have major trouble on that one...
[14:20] <FFighter> amenado, Eclipse
[14:20] <Jack_Sparrow> Thank you
[14:20] <Wander_w> karavoskylo: I have
[14:20] <Doublenoob> vignesh - this is how you change the login screen! open the terminal and type sudo gmsetup, enter your password, and drag the login screen archive onto login tab of  the window that pops up then drag and drop the archive to where all those pictures are. Then select the little radio button next to the appropriate login window - TADA, done!
[14:20] <Lamego> karavoskylo, yes, wihtout any problems
[14:20] <LetsGo67> Is there a way that, when I press a button on a joystick, it can emulate a keypress?
[14:20] <Stueh> OH OH OH
[14:20] <LjL> FFighter, sorry, i'm not aware of any, only KRegExpEditor
[14:20] <Stueh> It's working!
[14:20] <Jack_Sparrow> Stueh, good
[14:21] <karavoskylo> thanks a tone man!!!
[14:21] <vignesh> Doublenoob, ty
[14:21] <Stueh> Jack_Sparrow, cheers heaps for that :)
[14:21] <jtmitchum> how do I tell fsck to check only one drive(filesystem) instead of them all?
[14:21] <amenado> FFighter-> Eclipse? does it not have an editor?
[14:21] <Jack_Sparrow> Stueh, Now go away....        Just kidding
[14:21] <FFighter> amenadoedit\.[\d\w]+\.quantity
[14:21] <FFighter> ops
[14:21] <Stueh> Jack_Sparrow, so, question, is it generally better to install things through Synaptic rather then apt-get?
[14:21] <rblst> is there a way to set an argument for java to use it every time java runs something? like: java <preset_argument> <file_to_run>
[14:22] <RoadHazard> Stueh: synAPTic is pretty apt-get
[14:22] <Wander_w> amenado: yes, eclipse has several editors, FFighter seems to be gone though
[14:22] <chelz> Stueh: writes/uses the same db so it really doesn't matter. use what works for you
[14:22] <Pici> Stueh: They're the same thing.
[14:22] <Jack_Sparrow> Stueh, Synaptic or aptitude over apt-get   many apt-get vs aptitude discussions on the web  has to do with dependencies
[14:22] <amenado> rblst-> you can set an env variable and then use it on your java program
[14:22] <LjL> rblst, i don't think so... couldn't you make an alias?
[14:22] <Doublenoob> No prob! What does ty mean, it will help me understand this chatroom speak i keep coming across, help a brother!
[14:23] <RoadHazard> Doublenoob: thank you
[14:23] <karavoskylo> it connects ok but says something about some reading problems so i cannot send or receive any messages
[14:23] <Jack_Sparrow> Doublenoob, ThankYs
[14:23] <Stueh> Oh wow, three replies! :P
[14:23] <LjL> Jack_Sparrow, rblst, mostly moot since APT in Ubuntu has implemented unused dependency tracking. apt-get and Synaptic should use the exact same system, while aptitude may still possibly yield different results
[14:23] <LjL> sorry, Stueh not rblst
[14:24] <Stueh> Jack_Sparrow, so Synaptic etc. uses the same DP as apt-get, but informs you if you don't have the correct dependencies to go with the program you're installing?
[14:24] <Jack_Sparrow> :) Morning LjL  and Pici
[14:24]  * Pici waves
[14:24] <rblst> LjL: what alias do you mean?
[14:24] <Jack_Sparrow> Stueh, It has more to do with uninstalling
[14:25] <amenado> rblst something like alias ll='ls -la'
[14:25] <hischild> Jack_Sparrow, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5yzAz1QHlQ8 ... it can walk!
[14:25] <jtmitchum> is there a way to see system temperatures over ssh?
[14:25] <Jack_Sparrow> hischild, If I only bothered to install flash..
[14:25] <LjL> rblst, your shell supports aliases, that is fictious commands that are really other commands. you could type « alias java="java -option" », and then everytime you (note, *you*, from the shell, not other programs) call java, really "java -option" will be invoked
[14:25] <rblst> amenad, okay, i'll try this
[14:25] <Stueh> Jack_Sparrow, lol
[14:25] <LjL> jtmitchum, install lm-sensors and then call it over an ssh shell
[14:26] <amenado> jtmitchum-> does the system you are monitoring have the tools to monitor temp?
[14:26] <hischild> Jack_Sparrow, lol ... i do hope you have an ogg reader thingy?
[14:26] <Jack_Sparrow> LjL, Thanks for the info on  Ubuntu has implemented unused dependency tracking....
[14:26] <Doublenoob> Can i have a good link to an article about chatroom language. it will be a big help.
[14:26] <Jack_Sparrow> hischild, yes
[14:26] <jtmitchum> I think LjL  answered that one.. thanks!
[14:26] <hischild> Jack_Sparrow, if you want i'll upload it at fileden then
[14:26] <Shoopuf> How do I get the Trash to show up on my Desktop?
[14:26] <Jack_Sparrow> hischild, sure or just stick it in a pastebin as text

[14:34] <Pici> louish: make sure that you added the 'notification area' applet to your panel
[14:34] <wizo> crap how do i swap windows using this terminal in irssi
[14:35] <louish> Pici, I had to add a "new" panel, and it doesn't have a notification area.  It's just one long panel!   Can I add a notification area?
[14:35] <hischild> Jack_Sparrow, http://www.fileden.com/files/2007/7/17/1272738/out.ogg
[14:35] <wizo> hey, how do i swap windows in irssi using the terminal provided by ubuntu? i remember it used to be alt <number> or esc <number>
[14:35] <hischild> Jack_Sparrow, it walks =)
[14:35] <Jack_Sparrow> ty
[14:35] <Pici> louish: right click, add to panel, pick notification area
[14:36] <louish> Pici, Awesome.  I'll try that right now..  Ty Much.
[14:36] <rblst> LjL: thanks, now i remember, i never used this feature before
[14:36] <wizo> hey, should i compile drqueue from source (version 6.3) or should i use the one in teh repository?
[14:36] <wizo> which is version 6.0
[14:37] <louish> Pici, Thanks.  It worked.   DOH for me...  :)
[14:37] <Pici> wizo: depends if you *need* features from 6.3 or not
[14:37] <Jack_Sparrow> wizo, always best to stick with ours
[14:37] <Pici> wizo: but we always suggest using the repository packages if you can.
[14:37] <wizo> Pici, Jack_Sparrow, i see i see, just wondering if it was safe to compile it from source you know, since I had two options
[14:37] <wizo> thanks, Pici and Jack_Sparrow
[14:38] <Jack_Sparrow> wizo, As safe as the source itself...
[14:38] <wizo> Jack_Sparrow: i was wondering if the source was as safe as the one in the repository
[14:38] <wizo> haha
[14:38] <wizo> but thanks for the tip
[14:39] <Jack_Sparrow> wizo, Unless the newer version has something you must have..  easier and safer to stick with our tested repo stuff

[14:44] <psilocyde> hi folks, I need help with my audio.I did a fresh install of kubuntu gutsy and  was treated to verry low audio volume. I asked around and did some googling and i discovered it was a known bug with my on-board intel based sound hardware. I found this page https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto and stumbled through recompiling my alsa drivers and rebooted. still no sopund. Thats as far as my limited linux knowhowedness ha
[14:44] <psilocyde> s gotten me.
[14:44] <Flynsarmy> Is it possible to mount hdd's on ubuntu live dvd?
[14:44] <hischild> Jack_Sparrow, ... you seen that vid?
[14:45] <Lamego> Flynsarmy, yes
[14:45] <Flynsarmy> i need to back up some data on a pc without an OS but i can't mount the hdd's
[14:45] <Stueh> I'm out, thanks for the help Jack_Sparrow

[14:45] <noelferreira> how can i play rmvb files with subtitles on a amd64?
[14:45] <Lamego> Flynsarmy, you should be able to mount them unless the filesystems are corrupted
[14:45] <Pici> psilocyde: oops, i didn't really read your question
[14:45] <Stueh> .exit
[14:45] <Stueh> oops
[14:45] <Stueh> ooroo
[14:45] <Flynsarmy> Lamego: they're NTFS drives
[14:46] <wizo> btw, how do i link vi to vim?
[14:46] <psilocyde> lol thats ok
[14:46] <wizo> i'm used to typing vi last time, and it automatically calls vim, but now when i type vi, it's just vi, not vi,
[14:46] <Lamego> Flynsarmy, what error do you get when you try to mount them ?
[14:46] <richard> wizo: try alias vi="vim" :)
[14:46] <artti> Anybody knows about pytube?
[14:46] <Flynsarmy> Lamego: Unable to mount the volume 'M:'
[14:46] <wizo> richard: will give that a shot now
[14:47] <Wander_w> wizo: update-alternatives --config vi
[14:47] <wizo> O.o
[14:47] <Flynsarmy> Lamego: I double clicked on the drive maked 'M:' in 'Computer'
[14:47] <wizo> Wander_w: update alternatives?
[14:47] <Lamego> Flynsarmy, try manually on the terminal, mount partition mount_point
[14:47] <Wander_w> "update-alternatives --config vi"
[14:47] <psilocyde> im just so n00b with all this linux stuff im scared of breaking the install even further by messing with stuff i have verry little understanding of
[14:48] <Wander_w> wizo: It's a Ubuntu (or Debian) command
[14:48] <Flynsarmy> Lamego: Mount M: /     <- like htat?
[14:48] <Lamego> uff
[14:48] <Lamego> no
[14:48] <wizo> Wander_w: ahh , never heard of that before, will look that up, thanks
[14:48] <brobostigon> psilocyde: you just use some common sense,
[14:48] <Lamego> sudo fdisk -l
[14:48] <Wander_w> psilocyde: why? what do you have to lose?
[14:48] <Lamego> to list your partitions
[14:48] <psilocyde> lil sanity i guess
[14:48] <Lamego> then sudo mkdir /tmp/ntfs
[14:49] <Wander_w> psilocyde: can't lose what you don't have ;P
[14:49] <Lamego> sudo mount /dev/part /tmp/ntfs
[14:49] <psilocyde> hey...
[14:49] <Wander_w> sorry, was just to easy
[14:49] <psilocyde> :D
[14:49] <frojnd> Pici: Your webserver has read access to the /sql/ampache.sql file and the /config/ampache.cfg.php.dist file   What can I do here? where is this /sql/ampache directory :S
[14:50] <Flynsarmy> Lamego: Mount is denied because NTFS is marked to be in use. It isn't in use though
[14:50] <brobostigon> psilocyde: even being new, just common sense wiil get you far,and common sense will stop you from doing something stupid.
[14:50] <Jack_Sparrow> Flynsarmy, Windows may have it locked down
[14:51] <Flynsarmy> Jack_Sparrow: There is no windows. It's a brand new pc i just put together. i took the drive out of an old comp and put it in this new one
[14:51] <Toshio> does anyone have any experience getting a Canyon CNR-WCAM43 webcam to work in Ubuntu (or can point me to a good online article about it)?
[14:51] <seisen> Flynsarmy did you do a clean shutdown of Windows?
[14:51] <Flynsarmy> seisen: No it wasn't. The PSU died in the windows pc

[14:52] <mad_max02> When hardy gets released will it be ok to update the system to hardy from gutsy ??? Whats the complication about that if any ??
[14:52] <Jack_Sparrow> Flynsarmy, http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/forum-replies-archive.cfm/895856.html
[14:52] <LjL> mad_max02, if you didn't enable third-party repositories or installed packages/drivers from the web, there shouldn't be complications
[14:52] <Wander_w> psilocyde: ok, so then you have a broken linux distro; so what?
[14:52] <frojnd> Anyone else. I'm trying to configure ampache and looks like I don't have Ampache.cfg.php configured yet. I get this message:  Your webserver has read access to the /sql/ampache.sql file and the /config/ampache.cfg.php.dist file   What can I do here? where is this /sql/ampache dorectory ??
[14:53] <mad_max02> LjL, well I did enable repos and installed some programs from source
[14:53] <mad_max02> is that going to be a problem ?
[14:53] <LjL> mad_max02: programs from source won't do any harm as long as they were installed in the proper places (/usr/local or /opt). repos, it well depends.
[14:53] <Flynsarmy> Jack_Sparrow: thanks for your help :)
[14:53] <psilocyde> so ive been trying to get kubuntu running well on this machine for over a month
[14:53] <Toshio> Thanks guys, I'll do some research and come back if I have any questions
[14:54] <brobostigon> Toshio: youre welcome
[14:54] <Wander_w> So make a backup
[14:54] <n00bl0r14n> what command should i use to check the ports in use?
[14:54] <mad_max02> LjL, then what should I do ?? Install Hardy fresh when I have time or just stick to updates and that it
[14:54] <Flynsarmy> OK my new problem. I have a hdd. how can i format it to NTFS from the ubuntu live dvd?
[14:54] <Pici> frojnd: sorry, busy here, you may want to check out the ampache support for that, I have not set it up myself :/
[14:55] <LjL> mad_max02, you can always *try* upgrading - if it fails, you'll just have wasted a dozen of minutes, and can always reinstall fresh
[14:55] <Toshio> n00b: try "netstat -ant" without the quotes
[14:55] <mad_max02> Flynsarmy, why would you format it to NTFS ??
[14:55] <n00bl0r14n> thx! forgot
[14:55] <LjL> n00bl0r14n: internet ports?
[14:55] <Flynsarmy> mad_max02: Because i want to be able to access it from windows when i install windows
[14:55] <psilocyde> so far the things that have been giving me problems are the sound and the svid out
[14:55] <n00bl0r14n> yes
[14:55] <Jack_Sparrow> Flynsarmy, http://forum.notebookreview.com/archive/index.php/t-211958.html   last entry
[14:55] <mad_max02> LjL, you say that upgrade can fail because of the repos and installed programs ?
[14:55] <Wander_w> n00bl0r14n: nmap
[14:55] <LjL> n00bl0r14n: "netstat", with options depending on what exactly you want to see
[14:55] <mad_max02> Flynsarmy, format it to ext3 and dont use windows
[14:56] <LjL> mad_max02, it can, although it entirely depends on how well-behaved the repos are
[14:56] <Lamego> or, System -> Admin -> Network Tools -> Netstat
[14:56] <psilocyde> wich is a problem because media/entertainment/vide/music is the primary purpose of this machine
[14:56] <Flynsarmy> Jack_Sparrow: Yes i've got it mounted. Now i'm trying to partition a new HDD to NTFS
[14:56] <Lamego> mad_max02, a fresh install is preferable
[14:57] <Jack_Sparrow> Flynsarmy, glad you got it
[14:57] <n00bl0r14n> trying to run a cs srv and im configuring the firestarter to allow those ports
[14:57] <mad_max02> Lamego, okay that I'll install fresh when I have free time for installation and all the setup
[14:57] <psilocyde> im really trying to kick windows but i feel i may instead be booting it instead
[14:58] <Ttech> Hi
[14:58] <psilocyde> someone talk me down
[14:58] <VSpike> Does anyone know what process or daemon watches for apport crash reports and pops up the crash report notifier in GNOME?
[14:58] <Ttech> I am having issues With Picasa, and cannot get it to start
[14:58] <mad_max02> psilocyde, I use media/music/entertainment/videos/work on this computer and I'm happier with linux
[14:58] <Ttech> VSpike,  log?
[14:58] <psilocyde> mad_max02: right on
[14:58] <mad_max02> psilocyde, it was hard to fully format HDDs to ext3 but now when I've done it I'm never going back to windows
[14:59] <Wander_w> psilocyde: I don't need to talk you down, the Windows  crashes will do it for me
[14:59] <frojnd> Anyone else. I'm trying to configure ampache and looks like I don't have Ampache.cfg.php configured yet.

[14:59] <psilocyde> lol
[14:59] <mohamed_> hello all , can i compile kernel on ubuntu and use it in debian lenny on another machine, because ubuntu machine is faster ?
[14:59] <mad_max02> psilocyde, and I sure aint gonna reformat 2TB of HDDs to ntfs again
[14:59] <albyyx> i agree with mad_max02 ... no more windows :P
[14:59] <Ttech> Someone explain then if it works better why Piciasaq all of a sudden fails
[14:59] <Ttech> it makes my cpu to go 100%
[14:59] <Ttech> ><
[14:59] <Jack_Sparrow> mohamed_, Wrong place to ask..
[14:59] <Ttech> humm
[14:59] <VSpike> Ttech: suggest you start it from a console and see if you get any useful output
[14:59] <n00bl0r14n> nwm. i see it in firestarter thx for the help anyway
[14:59] <LjL> mohamed_, probably, but you should probably get yourself the *debian* kernel source package to compile
[15:00] <Ttech> VSpike,  its usingits own version of wine.
[15:00] <Ttech> ><
[15:00] <Flynsarmy> mad_max02: That's exactloy what i'm trying to do atm :P
[15:00] <mad_max02> psilocyde, dude I watch HD movies, listen to mp3, work and play some games on this pc and it has been more fun than ever
[15:00] <Ttech> Thats the issue
[15:00] <Jack_Sparrow> mohamed_, Try asking in #Debian
[15:00] <mad_max02> Flynsarmy, what ? move to linux ?
[15:00] <Daisuke_Ido> Ttech: some things.  and really, why use picasa when there's fspot and a bunch of others?
[15:00] <mohamed_> thx Jack_Sparrow  LjL
[15:00] <Flynsarmy> mad_max02: No, format 2 1TB drives to NTFS from linux
[15:00] <Ttech> Daisuke_Ido,  because Picasa is better then FSPot
[15:00] <TidusBlade> Hello, I have an apt-get problem if anyoone is willing to help ^^

[15:00] <Ttech> TidusBlade, don't ask to ask

[15:01] <Ttech> VSpike,  finally someone who agrees
[15:01] <Flynsarmy> mad_max02: So i can dual boot windows and linux and have my files readable in both OS's
[15:01] <Jack_Sparrow> I feel so evil and dirty right now   sorry for the OT
[15:01] <LjL> bieb: i don't know why it wasn't added to sudoers, but you can fix that by booting into recovery mode
[15:01] <noodlesgc>  check this out, cnn report yesterday, http://www.cnn.com/2008/TECH/ptech/03/13/factory.installed.virus.ap/index.html?eref=rss_topstories
[15:01] <Lamego> ygor, you can't :)
[15:01] <mad_max02> Flynsarmy, why do you need windows ?
[15:01] <jrib> bieb: is your user in the "admin" group?  Paste the output of "groups"
[15:01] <RoadHazard> Bieb: restart in recovery mode
[15:01] <psilocyde> i love the power i get with linux and kde as its window manager but im starting to rethink/regret the kubuntu change. everything seemed to work under the gnome  ubuntu setup
[15:01] <VSpike> Ttech: they had a big article in linux format mag recently about album managers, and picasa seemed to come out best
[15:01] <Flynsarmy> mad_max02: cause it's better than linux *initiate flame war here*
[15:01] <Lamego> you will need to upgrade to the next Ubuntu release when it becomes available
[15:01] <Ttech> VSpike, its one of the best
[15:01] <kondor101> having trouble with my file system, i am thinking of reinstalling everything but have no CD. Is it possible to force ubuntu to reinstall everything on itself simular to an upgrade?
[15:02] <Jack_Sparrow> psilocyde, I had issues with KDE myself
[15:02] <Ttech> But I isntalled Wine, and now Picias does not work, But I also isntalled the beta, so it maybe an issue
[15:02] <mad_max02> Flynsarmy, well if that is what you think then go ahead and do it
[15:02] <Ttech> VSpike,
[15:02] <psilocyde> i just really dig the configuration freedom that kde seems to have
[15:02] <bieb> LjL: I didnt get the private message from Ubotu
[15:02] <Flynsarmy> mad_max02: Heh, the reaosn is because i'm a Windows user converting to linux. I'm still not confident enough to use it 100% of the time
[15:02] <Ttech> VSpike,  got a link by chance?
[15:02] <mad_max02> Flynsarmy, but I can tell you I've been using PCs for about 19 years now and this has been the best move I ever made
[15:03] <Lamego> can we stop this win vs lin debate ?
[15:03] <TidusBlade> apt-get -f install dosent work, returns this: E: Sub-process /usr/sbin/dpkg-preconfigure --apt || true returned an error code (100) E: Failure running script /usr/sbin/dpkg-preconfigure --apt || true
[15:03] <Jack_Sparrow> I was about to do so
[15:03] <mad_max02> Flynsarmy, thats the problem. you dont want to learn :D
[15:03] <LjL> bieb: well anyway, it doesn't matter since you seem to be aware that root is not *supposed* to exist. follow the advice of checking "groups", and if you aren't admin, "adduser youruser admin" from recovery mode. if admin isn't listed at all in sudoers, add it. in any case you need recovery mode
[15:03] <DanC_> I'd like to install ubuntu using something smaller than a 500MB dowload; is there something like the debian netinstall?
[15:03] <Jack_Sparrow> psilocyde, and friends.. can we move the discussion to the offtopic rom
[15:03] <mad_max02> Lamego, this isnt the winVlin debate. :D its about something totally diff :D
[15:03] <Ttech> VSpike,  got a link?
[15:03] <Jack_Sparrow> !Minimal |  DanC_
[15:03] <ubotu> DanC_: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD

[15:05] <VSpike> Ttech: I have picasa installed and I also have the latest wine from budgetdedicated repo installed
[15:05] <Lamego> kondor101, reinstalling packages does not resolve "filesystem" problems, whatever that means
[15:05] <VSpike> Ttech: it seems to work
[15:05] <jrib> bieb: personally, I'd reinstall and verify the cd.  You don't know what other parts of the install did not complete successfully
[15:05] <stefano> how can i change the shell of a user?
[15:05] <Ttech> VSpike,  how ddi you setup that did you use the beta
[15:05] <jrib> stefano: chsh
[15:05] <bieb> I did re-install
[15:05] <Jack_Sparrow> kondor101, Dont think so...  parts of it sure..  what all has been done to mess it up
[15:05] <Lamego> stefano, chsh
[15:05]  * DanC_ wanders off, very happy with freenode support....
[15:06] <Ttech> VSpike,  Offical wine or UBntu repo wine?
[15:06] <jrib> bieb: and did you verify the cd was burned correctly?
[15:06] <VSpike> Ttech: official wine
[15:06] <Ttech> VSpike,  hmm
[15:06] <Ttech> VSpike,  did you intstall the beta?
[15:06] <stefano> Lamego, jrib no i mean when he logs in, normally he gets presented bash or something, i want a special user to execure some program instead of presenting a shell
[15:06] <kondor101> Jack_Sparrow, im not sure what caused it, had a file system problem that fsck thinks is now fixed, but it seems it isn't
[15:06] <noelferreira> why can't i use mplayer in fullscreen? any idea?
[15:06] <jrib> stefano: why?
[15:07] <VSpike> Ttech: I have this repo deb http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt gutsy main #WineHQ - Ubuntu 7.10 "Gutsy Gibbon"
[15:07] <Lamego> VSpike, what about checking #wine :) ?
[15:07] <Flynsarmy> GParted is just hanging on 'scanning all devices' :(
[15:07] <stefano> jrib, special purposes :-)
[15:07] <bieb> jrib: running that test now on the cd
[15:07] <jrib> noelferreira: try passing '-vo xv' to mplayer
[15:07] <Jack_Sparrow> kondor101, do you get to cli or desktop messed up .. need more details
[15:07] <Ttech> VSpike,  same
[15:07] <Ttech> VSpike,  beta for Picasa?
[15:07] <noelferreira> thanks, jrib
[15:07] <stefano> jrib, i am writing my own shell, just for fun
[15:07] <jrib> stefano: why won't chsh do what you asked?
[15:08] <VSpike> Ttech: Wine 0.9.57~winehq0~ubuntu~7.10-1 Picasa 2.7.3736-11
[15:08] <Ttech> VSpike,  did you install the picasa installer or the deb installer?
[15:08] <Ttech> I mean the .exe installer for windows
[15:08] <VSpike> Ttech: yikes, now you're asking
[15:08] <kondor101> Jack_Sparrow, I am getting system hangs, and some software i tried to install tells me that there is a disk error (this is pokerstars on wine) maybe i will reinstall wine
[15:08] <stefano> jrib, i want users that log in via ssh be able to see my shell in action without ever seeing a bash
[15:08] <Ttech> VSpike,  I'm trying to solve this
[15:08] <Ttech> ;)
[15:09] <Jack_Sparrow> kondor101, good place to start
[15:09] <jrib> stefano: chsh changes your login shell
[15:09] <dany88> ciao
[15:09] <dany88> !addon
[15:09] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about addon - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[15:09] <LetsGo67> Dude who recommended me joy2key, THANK YOU!
[15:09] <VSpike> Ttech: i used the google testing repository
[15:09] <jrib> stefano: ie if I use chsh to set my shell to zsh, I never see bash
[15:10] <stefano> jrib, sounds good, is it permanently as well?
[15:10] <Vecnah> hello there , it is possible to skip a test on startup in case of emergency startup need? like when you didn't check the volume for X days and you shutdown your workstation?
[15:10] <Ttech> VSpike, thats what I used and it failed. :/
[15:10] <jrib> stefano: yes
[15:10] <Doublenoob> Another problem, but a simple one for you Ubuntuers. I am installing Realplayer and it has just said this in the terminal - Copying RealPlayer files...configure system-wide symbolic links? [Y/n]: ...y.
[15:10] <Doublenoob> enter the prefix for symbolic links [/usr]: ...........................
[15:10] <stefano> jrib, thank you very much
[15:10] <Ttech> VSpike,  ubuntu 7.10?
[15:10] <Ttech> Hmm...
[15:10] <VSpike> Ttech: yep
[15:10] <Doublenoob> OOPS'! accidentally pressed enter!
[15:10] <Ttech> VSpike,  intersting
[15:11] <Vecnah> !obutu skip fsck
[15:11] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about obutu skip fsck - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[15:11] <Flannel> Vecnah: It's 30 reboots, but creating the /fastboot file will do it
[15:11] <Jack_Sparrow> !fsck
[15:11] <ubotu> fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo shutdown -F -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot
[15:11] <jrib> Doublenoob: you ignored the link I sent you about realplayer...
[15:11] <Flannel> Vecnah: before you shut down, sudo touch /fastboot
[15:11] <Vecnah> Flannel maybe I should create it each shutdown then?
[15:11] <Flannel> Vecnah: If you've already shut down, you can boot a liveCD.  But again, its 30 reboots, not any particular length of time
[15:12] <Vecnah> what about a key combination to skip the test?
[15:12] <Flannel> Vecnah: If you're bent on not doing it automatically, you can edit your fstab to get rid of i
[15:12] <Jack_Sparrow> Flannel, It will when it detects a problem
[15:12] <Vecnah> I may just need it in the morning while making my coffea I don't care , but this afternoon I did shutdown and had to reach my agenda real quick
[15:13] <Jack_Sparrow> Flannel, This filesystem will be automatically checked every 23 mounts or 180 days, whichever comes first.  Use tune2fs -c or -i to override.
[15:13] <Vecnah> and it was doing fsck , so maybe I guess there was a key combo to make it skip :-/
[15:13] <Vecnah> thanks for the advices , I didn't know about /fastboot
[15:13] <Vecnah> I ll lookup that when I get some time
[15:13] <kondor101> Jack_Sparrow pokerstars is one of the few (ahem windows) software companies that goes out of its way to fix conflicts with wine.  But maybe they are using a newer version than ubuntu repos
[15:14] <Flannel> Vecnah: check out tune2fs too.  Just remember to do it manually every once in a while (that's sudo touch /forcefsck)
[15:14] <bieb> jrib: the cd check passed. Is there a real reason to install ubuntu-server instead of regular ubuntu?
[15:14] <Doublenoob> Another question, but a simple one for you Ubuntuers. I am installing Realplayer and it has just said this in the terminal - "Copying RealPlayer files...configure system-wide symbolic links? [Y/n]: ..." - what are "symbolic links"?
[15:14] <stefano> jrib, chsh complains that /bin/myprogram is not a valid shell
[15:14] <Jack_Sparrow> kondor101, You will only find out by asking them
[15:14] <stefano> jrib, i got it working before when i was setting up a MUD though
[15:14] <Vecnah> is there a task sheduler Gui for cron in gnome?
[15:14] <VSpike> Does anyone know what process or daemon watches for apport crash reports and pops up the crash report notifier in GNOME?
[15:14] <stefano> jrib, but i don't remember how i did it :>
[15:14] <Vecnah> thanks Flannel
[15:14] <hischild> Jack_Sparrow, you seen the vid?
[15:15] <Jack_Sparrow> Doublenoob, Did you read the link jrib  sent you
[15:15] <jrib> bieb: -server won't install things you don't need on a server (like a desktop environment)
[15:15] <Jack_Sparrow> hischild, No.. I terminated it.. I didnt need 16 megs of video
[15:15] <jrib> stefano: /etc/shells lists acceptable shells
[15:15] <Lamego> Doublenoob, symbolic links are pointers, on this case, they will be used to make the applications available fronm the standard path
[15:15] <hischild> :(
[15:15] <Doublenoob> I accidentally exited the chatroom and lost everything, just my luck!
[15:16] <jrib> !realplayer > Doublenoob (read the private message from ubotu)
[15:16] <joost__> Can I get ubuntu-ps3 support here ?
[15:16] <stefano> jrib, thanks, i just read it in the manpage, sorry for the stupid question
[15:16] <bieb> jrib: thanks
[15:16] <LjL> joost__: not really supported. try #ubuntu-ps3
[15:16] <joost__> ok
[15:17] <mikromakro> hey, I tried to install ubuntu on my laptop, but when I booted the cd, I got a message that said that there is no access to the tty, and that the job controll is off. . . .anyone know anything about that?
[15:18] <mikromakro> It happenned before ubuntu was able to boot into X
[15:18] <Toshio> Well guys, I'm back. I did check out https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport and there is no support in Ubuntu for my webcam model, which is Canyon CNR-WCAM43. The closest thing which is supported is Canyon CN-WCAM23. Should I just go ahead and install that driver and hope for the best?
[15:18] <kira> Can somebody tell me how to install newest Kernel (not stable) for ubuntu studio??? where to find respositorys
[15:18] <Jack_Sparrow> mikromakro, It may be a bug which would turn up under a google search for your hardware and ubuntu or tyr this..   At start or install press F6 and remove Quiet and Splash from the command line. If it still fails repeat and add noapic acpi=off before the "--"
[15:19] <Flannel> kira: the only kernels in the repositories are the stable ones
[15:20] <mikromakro> jack_sparrow, ok, ill do that :) thnx!
[15:20] <kira> fuck that sucks cause wit my kernel i have always problems to boot my PC i always must use GRUB with manual ENTER
[15:20] <Jack_Sparrow> kira, Support for Studio.. is in their chanel
[15:20] <LjL> !language | kira
[15:20] <ubotu> kira: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly.
[15:20] <brobostigon> kira: dont install unstable kernel, there  no point, youre system will be very instble if you do.
[15:20] <Vecnah> ubotu canonical

[15:21] <Doublenoob> JRIB - I'll check out the link.
[15:21] <frojnd> anyone in the name here uses ampacje ? :)
[15:22] <Jack_Sparrow> Flannel, She is having serious issues with Studio... It would be her best bet .. or just install the REAL Ubuntu and add what she wants to that
[15:22] <frojnd> ampache*
[15:23] <Chewy_Solo> hello

[15:35] <Lamego> brontos, check the logs :)
[15:36] <mikromakro> Jack_Sparrow: I tried the F6 approach. I didnt find much on "Ubuntu on an aspire2920". I didnt quite get how to turn off the splash and the quiet options...
[15:36] <brontos> Lamego: I think I turned it off in services.  then I removed the gui
[15:36] <Chamunks> hischild, i see some eeeXubuntu link on digg...
[15:36] <Chew1> hmm
[15:36]  * msingh wonders if fluxbuntu will support his wireless like xubuntu does.. and whether it will do suspend too :P
[15:37] <Chew1> the flash plugin is not appearing in synaptic
[15:37] <brontos> Lamego: I think there is something to do with rc.d and init.d to start it but I cannot remember
[15:37] <Chew1> lamego, the flash plugin isnt in synaptic
[15:37] <Chew1> only a version not installed
[15:37] <Lamego> Chew1, yes it is, make suer you have universe enabled
[15:37] <Keule> help!
[15:37] <mikromakro> does anyone know anything about what I can do if when I boot the install disk for Ubuntu, and it says: "Cant access tty; job control off" ?
[15:38] <Lamego> not installed means, it is not installed, available to be installed

[15:38] <Toshio> What good MS Word alternatives are there for Ubuntu besides OpenOffice Writer, Abiword and Kword?
[15:38] <seisen> !universe | Chew1
[15:38] <QuickGold> ninja: Let me try again with that....
[15:38] <ubotu> Chew1: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecommendedSources for the recommended way to set up your repositories

[15:39] <Chew1> unfortunately i cant access internet, because thats my issue
[15:39] <Chew1> ok
[15:39] <Lamego> what does flash have to do with the internet access ?
[15:39] <Lamego> what do you need flash for if you don't have internet :) ?
[15:39] <Chew1> i dont know
[15:39] <Doublenoob> The links are about opensource formats, common tasks - which won't go in depth enough and restricted formats which i know can suffocate the opensource developers community but at the moment i have to use the restricted codecs to open most multimedia files. Anyway, you already gave me an answer to my first question.The people that create the files need to switch to opensource formats but will they? Are there any "financial agr
[15:39] <Chew1> well i do have internet
[15:39] <Chew1> but
[15:40] <Chew1> it wont open it just closes down firefox automaticly
[15:40] <legend2440> mikromakro: do you have a floppy drive?
[15:40] <Chew1> everythinng in installation media is checked
[15:40] <Lamego> Chew1, since you installed the flash plugin using the manual process ?
[15:41] <Chew1> i dont know if it was manual, i just downloaded it from the adobe website and installed it (linux version)
[15:41] <Lamego> ok, it was manual
[15:41] <Slart> Toshio: don't forget the latex based stuff... if you're into that. =)
[15:42] <Freezeil> Hello everyone
[15:42] <Freezeil> How are we today?
[15:42] <msingh> hischild, Chamunks this will take a week to download.. they need some mirrors :-/
[15:42] <Chew1> so if it was manual how do i remove it?
[15:42] <hischild> msingh, it went quite fast for me ...
[15:42] <msingh> 15 Kb/s here
[15:42] <Lamego> Chew1, I believe the installer tells you where it is installing, into the mozilla/firefox plugins directory
[15:43] <Chamunks> msingh, ill take a look at it.  you may find better seeds via the torrent networks...
[15:43] <Toshio> Slart: AFAIK latex is for scientists :-??
[15:43] <Lamego> there should be a libflash* something
[15:43] <Lamego> you need to delete it

[15:48] <mikromakro> Legend2440: just one thing. Could it have something to do with my prosesser being a 64bit prosesser and that I have the 7.04 32bit ubuntu?
[15:48] <Slart> Chew1: what are you looking for.. firefox uses several directories
[15:48] <prince_jammys> Chew1: your personal firefox settings?
[15:48] <Chamunks> msingh, i did and without hassle my isp bumped me up no hassle.  But my isp rocks so they throttle nothing and cap nothing and openly admit that so im happy all around :)
[15:48] <Chew1> the plugins
[15:48] <Lamego> mikromakro, there is no problem on using a 32bits kernel on a 64bits capable system

[15:48] <Pici> !nickspam > Nikyo-the-1st (Please see the private messsage from ubotu)

[15:49] <mikromakro> Legend2440: ok :)
[15:49] <msingh> Chamunks, haha nice :)
[15:49] <Chew1> do you know where that is?
[15:49] <Chamunks> msingh, but the name of said isp is only worth something to you if your in canada... :S
[15:50] <Slart> Chew1: have you checked in /usr/lib/firefox ?
[15:50] <Dmole> Lamego: find / -name alert.log  comes back with nothing

[15:54] <sysop_> is it all pages Chew1?
[15:54] <ninja> anyone ever edited the /etc/host file?
[15:54] <ninja> it's a hilarious prank....
[15:55] <rico> smokeyd: the more i think of it, the more i think you're on to something... maybe i does it when it gets warmed up or something
[15:55] <Chew1> it happens before it even loads my home page, and sys op do you happen to be namarkan?
[15:55] <msingh> dgjones, thanks.
[15:55] <sysop_> no, Joe.  sorry.
[15:55] <smokeyd> rico, yeah, something like that
[15:55] <smokeyd> Try another video card
[15:55] <smokeyd> or try another operating system, just to check if that is the problem
[15:55] <skillz> i understand there is a paste dump.. can anyone give me the URL please
[15:55] <Chew1> sys?
[15:56] <ninja> i said it was a funny prank... i didn't say do it to your own system
[15:56] <dgjones> !paste | skillz
[15:56] <ubotu> skillz: pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic)
[15:56] <ninja> lol
[15:56] <smokeyd> maybe a windows live cd (they do exist)  or another linux live cd
[15:56] <Slart> ninja: don't you mean /etc/hosts ? and whats so funny about it?
[15:56] <ninja> yeah i meant hosts

[15:57] <ninja> it's actually helpful too, i know spybot utilizes it to redirect known ad-aware and spy-ware to 127.0.0.1 so you never visit it
[15:57] <sysop_> ninja:  host file is just where you add custom name entries.  how is it a prank?
[15:57] <ninja> kind of utilizes it like a access list
[15:57] <armia-Revan> does anyone know how to install intel video drivers im totally lost
[15:57] <ninja> well because you can redirect everything to google
[15:57] <smokeyd> rico, then it definately sounds like a hardware problem
[15:57] <rico> smokeyd: thanks for the clue, talk to you laters
[15:57] <Slart> ninja: is this going somewhere? is there a point somewhere at the end of this?
[15:57] <Pici> ninja: This is a support channel, do you have anything constructive to contribute?

[15:58] <dgjones> PurpZeY, have you considered using the alternate install cd? that works with a wider range of hardware and can get past some installation problems that you can have with the livecd
[15:58] <ninja> you can even find some text host files that people have already written

[15:59] <legend2440> Chew1: what happens if you try Epiphany browser?
[15:59] <PurpZeY> dgjones: I am trying to avoid it. What I am trying to accomplish right now is to get into the live CD so that I might pop in my flash drive and backup hardware.
[15:59] <Chew1> i tried another browser and it loaded google but that was it
[15:59] <PurpZeY> Scratch that. Software***
[15:59] <Pici> ninja: The /etc/hosts file in Linux also holds some important settings that would remove your ability to use sudo properly, I suggest not touching it.

[15:59] <ninja> that's not right pici... what settings are there?

[16:00] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about router - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[16:00] <Doublenoob> PurpZey - your CD has errors - burn a new one and make sure the drive buffer doesn't reach zero as when this happens your drive goes into buffer under-run which causes the laser to shut off uncleanly and causes errors! I was plagued with this problem, some tips are to run as little applications as possible and set the run priority in task manager to high but not realtime! (search for buffer under-run in wikipedia and click th
[16:00] <Pici> ninja: your hostname settings
[16:00] <Chew1> no i havent, where is the directory that i should rename locatd?
[16:00] <Pici> !hostname | ninja
[16:00] <ubotu> ninja: Use hostname <somehostname> to set the hostname, or to do it permanently: edit /etc/hostname  and /etc/hosts . WARNING! Make sure that your current hostname and /etc/hosts match, otherwise sudo may not work properly. Alternatively, use the gui at system>administration>networking on the "General" tab
[16:00] <sysop_> yeah, i'm back.  sorry that was weird.  it lagged my converstation for a min

[16:01] <armia-Revan> can anyone help?
[16:01] <Chew1> my home directory only has desktop and examples in it
[16:01] <ninja> what would it do to the sudo? i didn't think it was that buggy... that also confuses me about ubuntu distro
[16:01] <v3ctor> Chew1: you can call it whatever you want, like .mozilla-test
[16:01] <ninja> how do you change it so you don't have a sudo group
[16:01] <v3ctor> Chew1: it is a hidden file
[16:02] <ninja> you just have root and your users
[16:02] <ninja> like typical linux per se
[16:02] <sysop_> Anywho, I have a iptables question.  I'm trying to set up a ubuntu 7.10 machine to act as a router.  Currently the machine has one physical interface and uses vlan's to create 2 ppoe adsl connections.   eth0 (LAN) is 192.168.1.253.  Eth0.10 (vlan10) has ppp0 on it.  Eth0.11 (vlan11) has ppp1 on it.  Basicly my first goal is so another computer can use 192.168.1.253 as its gateway and go out one of the ppp's.  the main goal is to do a load
[16:02] <sysop_> balance/fail over.
[16:02] <Pici> !sudo | ninja
[16:02] <ubotu> ninja: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information.
[16:02] <Pici> !noroot

[16:02] <armia-Revan> can anyone help?
[16:03] <ninja> i'm sketchy on the security behind sudo
[16:03] <sysop_> ninja' its a secuirty issue

[16:04] <sysop_> toshio:  I did some looking at firestarter and pfsense.  I tried pfsense and it seemed to be in the right direction, except it didn't allow multiple wan PPPOes
[16:04] <v3ctor> Chew1: if you don't mind the manual process, you could get the linux version from adaobe and use their install instructions
[16:05] <Chew1> i did that last time, it seemed to mess it up

[16:10] <tritium> armia-Revan: they're already installed.  You just need to configure xserver-xorg to use them.  Although, the installer should have done that for you.
[16:10] <armia-Revan> how would i do that
[16:10] <Chew1> yea plugin not found

[16:19] <ubotu> armia-Revan: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :)
[16:20] <TrueNme> After using the package manager and selecting a package i want  what do i do
[16:20] <armia-Revan> dang i need to reister first
[16:20] <Lamego> wizo_, its /etc/bashrc
[16:20] <Chew1> thanks legend, im installing flash now
[16:20] <Lamego> ,bashrc its in your home dir, not on etc, /etc is system wide
[16:20] <highrelyguy> Hi - trying to connect a 3TB drive to ubuntu 6.10  lshw sees it, fdisk does not.  How do I bring it online?
[16:20] <armia-Revan> !tab tritium like this?
[16:20] <tritium> armia-Revan: no, use tab-completion to make spelling out nicks easier
[16:21] <Toshio> TrueNme: mark for installation and hit apply
[16:21] <wizo_> Lamego:  i only have bash.bashrc
[16:21] <mohamed_> armia-Revan, write the first letter then click tab
[16:21] <sysop_> !tab
[16:21] <ubotu> You can use <tab> for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line.
[16:21] <sysop_> ah
[16:21] <_Scooter_> highrelyguy: does it show up as a drive in dmesg?
[16:21] <Billenium> Okay this CD got a little further on loading... But then the screen turned all red blue and black and colors and started blinking... *sigh*
[16:21] <Jimmi_jones> morning all, I need a little help updating GTK+ to 2.8 or higher and glib to 2.3 or higher please, I have never compiled anything before and I am having trouble finding instructions on how to update these two packages
[16:21] <Billenium> Can unetbootin partition my system?
[16:21] <armia-Revan> im so confused
[16:22] <highrelyguy> _Scooter_ let me check.
[16:22] <psilocyde> Did my post regarding my sound problems seem to wordy? pastebin: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59591/
[16:22] <sysop_> Billenium: sounds like hardware issues?
[16:22] <Chew1> thanks guys :D it all works now :D
[16:22] <tritium> armia-Revan: e.g., when I use your nick, I type "ar", and then hit the tab key, and the rest is automatically completed for me.
[16:22] <TrueNme> ~~Toshio~~ thats done but i dont know where to find the app or if its installed ?
[16:22] <Billenium> well if it didnt work on two different computers, i guess i should use a different CD?
[16:22] <alex12> hi guys im having a problem with ssh shared keys, on server 1) ive setup the dsa keys, and copied the pub key to server 2 .. on server 2) i cat this pub file into my root authorized keys file, and a user called alex's authorized keys file, both with correct permissions ..... logging into server 2 FROM server 1 with root works fine, and i login immedatly, but loggin in with user alex prompt me with password, debug shows nothing helpful, w
[16:22] <alex12> hat is wrong!! this has been driving me nuts for hours
[16:22] <armia-Revan> tritium: so like this?
[16:22] <sysop_> Billenium: yeah, sounds like a physical CD issue
[16:23] <tritium> armia-Revan: exactly, that way I get a nick highlight
[16:23] <Billenium> I just built this computer, and i really dont want to use Vista...
[16:23] <Billenium> :(
[16:23] <sysop_> Billenium: just reburn the CD and try it again
[16:23] <Billenium> no more CDs...
[16:23] <Chew1> legend thanks :D
[16:23] <Chew1> its fixed
[16:23] <armia-Revan> tritium: ah ok so how would i go about installing these drivers i want to pla counter strike source but the #winehq said i didnt have drivers installed
[16:23] <sysop_> Billenium: well, i suggest you buy some more :D
[16:23] <wizo_> is /etc/bash.bashrc the /etc/.bashrc ?
[16:23] <Billenium> sysop_: is wubi/lubi/unetbootin a possibility?
[16:24] <Doublenoob> What is the standard path? is it the same as the system path?
[16:24] <tritium> armia-Revan: which drivers?
[16:24] <sysop_> Billenium: I have no clue, you can try it.
[16:24] <Billenium> meh
[16:24] <Billenium> if anything goes wrong, ill reinstall vista
[16:24] <armia-Revan> tritium: the ones for the Intel 945gm
[16:24] <sysop_> Billenium: worse case, it doesn't work
[16:24] <Toshio> !alsa
[16:24] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). 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 !MP3
[16:24] <sysop_> Billenium: why not just go bum a blank CD from someone?
[16:24] <tritium> armia-Revan: you're likely already using them.  Do you have a graphical desktop right now?
[16:24] <Billenium> lazy
[16:24] <Billenium> and i dont have much time
[16:24] <Econael> I'm using Ubuntu 7.10 and everytime I try to get a server.met, amule crashes (window just closes, no error messages)
[16:24] <cdealer> what the default vncserver used by ubuntu ??
[16:25] <Toshio> also - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto
[16:25] <armia-Revan> tritium: no i cant even use compiz it says desktop effects could not be enabled
[16:25] <sysop_> Billenium: your call.
[16:25] <Lamego> Econael, launching amule from the terminal may provide you some aditional info on the crash
[16:25] <Billenium> its not like if i do it wrong my computer will explode/be destroyed
[16:25] <tritium> armia-Revan: please cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | grep intel, and tell me what it returns
[16:25] <Econael> Lamego, thx, I'll try that
[16:26] <Lamego> armia-Revan, have you checked the restricted drivers application, you may need a restricted driver for your graphics card
[16:26] <tritium> Lamego: there are no Intel restricted drivers.
[16:26] <TrueNme> after using package manager to select and apply  and they install where do i go to use the app ?
[16:26] <Lamego> tritium, i didn't read the intel part, sorry :P
[16:26] <tritium> Lamego: no problem :)
[16:27] <Toshio> TrueNme: The Applications menu
[16:27] <highrelyguy> _Scooter_ dmesg does show it.
[16:27] <armia-Revan> tritium: wait im confused what do i put in terminal?
[16:27] <RoadHazard> what model intel, I have some knowledge there
[16:27] <armia-Revan> 945gm
[16:27] <tritium> armia-Revan: cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | grep intel
[16:27] <RoCUnreal> I need a Program that i can write compile & run C++ code that has a GUI
[16:27] <_Scooter_> highrelyguy: make sure you're using sudo to fdisk it

[16:27] <highrelyguy> _Scooter_ I was root.
[16:27] <armia-Revan> tritium: nothing happens it just goes to a new commandline
[16:27] <TrueNme> ~~Toshio~~ its not in that list
[16:28] <Doublenoob> LAMEGO - my problem is solved but i must, must, must know what the purpose of the standard path is.
[16:28] <Ax-Ax> How do i change system locale? (Preferably by cli)
[16:28] <_Scooter_> highrelyguy: baffling. is it showing up as a scsi?
[16:28] <Lamego> Doublenoob, standard path ? on which context ?
[16:28] <tritium> armia-Revan: hmm, can you please inspect your /etc/X11/xorg.conf, and tell me what Driver is being used?
[16:28] <Jimmi_jones> morning all, I need a little help updating GTK+ to 2.8 or higher and glib to 2.3 or higher please, I have never compiled anything before and I am having trouble finding instructions on how to update these two packages
[16:28] <Toshio> armia-Revan, try iy with grep -i intel
[16:28] <highrelyguy> _Scooter_ how would I tell that?
[16:28] <Slart> RoCUnreal: you won't find one program that does all that.. but you can find a good editor..and a good compiler.
[16:29] <tritium> Ax-Ax: sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales
[16:29] <armia-Revan> Toshio: it says cat invalid operation
[16:29] <Toshio> TrueNme, what is the technical name of the package you just installed?
[16:29] <Fosiz> hi to all
[16:29] <RoCUnreal> this anjuta program has a GUI?
[16:29] <tritium> RoCUnreal: yes
[16:29] <RoCUnreal> its not command line junk
[16:29] <RoCUnreal> right?
[16:29] <RoCUnreal> k
[16:29] <_Scooter_> highrelyguy: the device itself would be /dev/sda instead of /dev/hda... i'm guessing that it is, since 3TB sounds like a raid array of some sort
[16:29] <Ax-Ax> tritium, :D
[16:29] <armia-Revan> tritium: im sorry what was i supposed to do
[16:29] <Slart> RoCUnreal: anjuta is an editor..
[16:29] <tritium> RoCUnreal: but note that command line is not junk
[16:29] <Lamego> Roconda, anjunta is a gui app
[16:29] <Fosiz> is it normal ? lauching gconf there is nothing
[16:30] <_Scooter_> highrelyguy: or /dev/sd[a-z]
[16:30] <TrueNme> ~~Toshio~~ BitchX
[16:30] <marx2k> I cringe any time someone says "command line junk"
[16:30] <highrelyguy> _Scooter_ duh - sorry - yes it's shows as /dev/sdb
[16:30] <Doublenoob> The context of symbolic links, which i gather from your answer are basically the Linux equivalents of shortcuts
[16:30] <RoCUnreal> tritium, im a windows guy
[16:30] <phil66> I am using Pidgin to access this chat board. Everytime I login I have to go to account and disable and then enable the buddies and chat accounts. What is my problem
[16:30] <RoCUnreal> tritium, command lines some times confuse me :(
[16:30] <Lamego> Roconda, and some of use are terminal guys
[16:30] <Slart> RoCUnreal: it's ok.. we won't hold it against you ;)
[16:30] <_Scooter_> highrelyguy: any result from this? sudo fdisk -l /dev/sdb
[16:30] <tritium> RoCUnreal: that's fine, but the cli is definitely useful and powerful
[16:30] <Fosiz> lauching gconf there is nothing, gconf is empty
[16:30] <tritium> armia-Revan: cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | grep -i intel
[16:30] <Fosiz> is it normal ?
[16:30] <wizo_> hey, i used slocate, and drqman came up with 2 results for drqman, /var/lib/drqueue/bin/drqman and /usr/bin/drqman, what's the difference? i need to specify the export DRQUEUE_ROOT = <something>
[16:30] <Creationist> Does anyone know how to use the Live CD to determine a Windows XP password?
[16:30] <Toshio> TrueNme, open up a terminal window and type "bitchx &" without the quotes
[16:31] <Creationist> ...or even just remove the password.
[16:31] <Lamego> Creationist, that is not possible, and you would be on the wrong channel for that
[16:31] <Slart> RoCUnreal: I think anjuta is as close to visual-<whateverlanguage> you'll find on linux..
[16:31] <armia-Revan> tritium:  "Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller"
[16:31] <Creationist> Lamego: Okay... say you have no idea, not that it isn't possible, because it is.
[16:31] <Slart> Creationist: I don't think you'll be retrieving it.. but reseting it
[16:31] <RoCUnreal> What should i use has the Compiler?
[16:31] <tritium> armia-Revan: is that it?
[16:32] <j77>  /leave
[16:32] <highrelyguy> _Scooter_ shows nothing.
[16:32] <Creationist> Slart: That's acceptable too.  I'm going to be wiping the hard drive anyway, but need to back up some stuff first.
[16:32] <_Scooter_> Creationist: have you tried microsoft's website?

[16:32] <Creationist> Lamego: It is Ubuntu support - it's on topic, thanks.
[16:32] <RoCUnreal> slart, im confused how do i use it?
[16:32] <armia-Revan> tritium: thats all it says
[16:32] <_Scooter_> highrelyguy: can you find any info in /proc/scsi/ about it?
[16:32] <Ax-Ax> tritium, how do i change the locale to english?
[16:32] <RoCUnreal> slart, do i tell it where the .text file is with the C++ code?
[16:33] <Creationist> Toshio: Thanks, I'll look into that.
[16:33] <Lamego> Creationist, ubuntu support is not related to windows xp password reset, thanks
[16:33] <RoCUnreal> slart, then it compiles the code?
[16:33]  * Creationist slaps Lamego with a trout.
[16:33] <_Scooter_> Creationist: it's the purpose you wish to use it for that is not on topic.
[16:33] <tritium> armia-Revan: can you please pastebin your xorg.conf?
[16:33] <Michael__> is there anyway to put the ubuntu download on a jump drive instead of a cd
[16:33] <RoCUnreal> slart, what commands do i use?
[16:33] <Slart> RoCUnreal: there has to be a simple tutorial with this somewhere.. it will be a lot of typing otherwise.. hang on.. I'll see what I can find
[16:33] <armia-Revan> tritium: yes one second
[16:33] <Creationist> _Scooter_: Well, I'll be installing Ubuntu on the system once I recover the data I'm after... so :)

[16:34] <RoCUnreal> slart, alright, thanks man for helping out a windows noob like my self
[16:34] <_Scooter_> Creationist: so good luck with that, you'll need it.
[16:34] <highrelyguy> _Scooter_ yes
[16:34] <Lamego> Creationist, you dont need any password reset to get the windows data, you can simply access the ntfs partition from the live cd
[16:34] <armia-Revan> tritium: http://pastebin.ca/942555p

[16:36] <wizo_> oh
[16:36] <wizo_> err
[16:36] <Lamego> Doublenoob, ok, several applications place symbolic links, so that you can use just the "command" to execute the application, instead of using the full path
[16:36] <wizo_> maybe i'll try if the new shells can catch it first
[16:36] <RoadHazard> maxaki: define cant install
[16:36] <tritium> armia-Revan: yes, it's using the i810 driver, which is what you want.
[16:36] <_Scooter_> highrelyguy: can you pastebin your dmesg please?
[16:36] <tritium> armia-Revan: man i810 for details on the driver you're using

[16:36] <wizo_> ah it works, thanks guys
[16:36] <armia-Revan> tritium: do what now?
[16:37] <tritium> armia-Revan: "man i810" if you want to read about that driver

[16:39] <adamt> how do i make ubuntu rewrite a sane xorg config? (not X -configure..)
[16:39] <tritium> armia-Revan: I don't play games, so I don't know about your first question.
[16:39] <RoCUnreal> slart, think that will do what i need ?

[16:39] <highrelyguy> _Scooter_ - it's an eSATA device.
[16:39] <SpookyET> tritium: not that one
[16:40] <_Scooter_> highrelyguy: hrm... firmware version?
[16:40] <RoadHazard> maxaki: did you update?
[16:40] <armia-Revan> RoadHazard: no the menu is all messed up and destroyed and the game crashes to desktop after i load most of the files on connecting to a sever
[16:40] <Slart> RoCUnreal: you've got a lot to learn if you've only used visual studio before
[16:40] <RoCUnreal> slart, but idk how to compile
[16:40] <maxaki> RoadHazard, Yes, I did, but it don't work...
[16:40] <tritium> armia-Revan: is it a native linux game?
[16:40] <RoCUnreal> slart, at least in ubuntu i dont know how
[16:40] <highrelyguy> _Scooter_ are you asking me the firmware version of the card?
[16:40] <armia-Revan> tritium: no but ppl are playing it on linux and its working
[16:40] <Slart> RoCUnreal: do you know how to write a simple c/c++ program?
[16:40] <RoCUnreal> slart, yea
[16:40] <RoadHazard> maxaki: try apt-cache search binfmt
[16:40] <RoCUnreal> slart, i know a few data types and junkk

[16:41] <RoCUnreal> slart, loops also
[16:41] <maxaki> RoadHazard, Didn't happen anything

[16:42] <Toshio> Doublenoob, try echo $PATH
[16:42] <Econael> using ubuntu 7.10, how can I see how well the WLAN connection is?
[16:42] <RoadHazard> maxaki: make that sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list
[16:42] <maxaki> RoadHazard, ALL is with #
[16:42] <marx2k> tritium: :D
[16:42] <Trubadurix> hey any body here that could tell me what panel this is the one in buttom  http://www.gnome-look.org/CONTENT/content-pre2/72621-2.jpg
[16:42] <_Scooter_> Econael: click on the network applet on the upper-right of the desktop, should give you a list
[16:42] <maxaki> Not the first line, but the rest is
[16:43] <tritium> marx2k: there's nothing boring about not using windows.  Games themselves bore me.
[16:43] <maxaki> RoadHazard, All lines is with #
[16:43] <RoadHazard> maxaki: remove the # from all debs except the ones that say cdrom in them
[16:43] <Doublenoob> LAMEGO - I see that you are highly active in this chatroom! The system path, aka the standard path, is a collection of paths that hold commands and symbolic links to commands in other paths Is this correct?
[16:43] <gigo> mkfs -t fat32 /dev/sdb1 <-- is this incorrect?
[16:43] <Slart> RoCUnreal: read this.. it should explain some things.. http://www.network-theory.co.uk/docs/gccintro/
[16:44] <tobiwan> Trubadurix: that looks like a screenlet to me
[16:44] <Trubadurix> tobiwan: oki thx
[16:44] <Lamego> Doublenoob, kind off :P
[16:44] <simplyubuntu> hey can anyone tell me how to mount a usb flash drive (/dev/sdb1) using the command line?
[16:44] <marx2k> tritium: Games have been boring me lately as well, but that doesnt mean I dont enjoy hames in and of themselves. We are human
[16:44] <genii> simplyubuntu: What file system is on it?
[16:44] <Toshio> !mount
[16:44] <ubotu> Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted (also "man mkfs" for formatting) - Mounting partitions in !GNOME under !Dapper: System -> Administration -> Disks - For !Edgy and later, see !fstab and !DiskMounter
[16:44] <highrelyguy> _Scooter_ I thoughht the problem might be because it was over 2TB, do you see any issue there?
[16:44] <tobiwan> Trubadurix: yep, seems to be the 'Windowlist' screenlet
[16:44] <simplyubuntu> genii, what do you mean?
[16:45] <simplyubuntu> im not sure...
[16:45] <tritium> marx2k: offtopic, but nothing says we have to enjoy video games
[16:45] <Slart> simplyubuntu: sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /media/sdb1     you might have to create the /media/sdb1 folder first
[16:45] <RoadHazard> maxaki: did ya get that?
[16:45] <sinbox> Doublenoob I think yes
[16:45] <genii> Slart: You assume he has ext fs on it :)
[16:45] <marx2k> tritium agree
[16:45] <Doublenoob> LAMEGO - KIND OF MEANS YES OR DOES KIND OF MEAN YOU ARE TOO DUMB TO UNDERSTAND?
[16:45] <simplyubuntu> thanks slart
[16:45] <negativerad> I'm using Hardy 2.6.24-12-386, my sound was working on 2.6.24-11-generic but now its not.
[16:45] <simplyubuntu> worked
[16:45] <tritium> !caps | Doublenoob
[16:45] <ubotu> Doublenoob: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[16:45] <Lamego> Doublenoob, kind off means you shoulw lower your CAPS
[16:45] <Slart> genius: I think mount recognizes manyu formats automagically.. at least it does for me
[16:46] <sleepy554> does ubuntu gutsy have full support for core 2 duo? does it utilize its full potential as far as speed is concerned?
[16:46] <Trubadurix> tobiwan: is there a good site for screenlet or something?
[16:46] <maxaki> RoadHazard, yea.... w8
[16:46] <sinbox> Doublenoob, I understand , as an aside capslock usually define dumbness you'll be glad to know
[16:46] <tritium> Doublenoob: don't treat people in this channel that way, or I'll remove you.
[16:46] <maxaki> RoadHazard w8
[16:46] <tobiwan> Trubadurix: i only saw them on gnome-look up to now, but the one i mentioned is shipped with gutsy, even
[16:46] <bazhang> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CompilingSoftware RoCUnreal this may give you some pointers
[16:46] <Lamego> sleepy554, yes it does
[16:47] <RoadHazard> maxaki: when youve done that ctrl-x y enter
[16:47] <RoCUnreal> slart, it talks about compiling a C program but not a C++ program
[16:47] <_Scooter_> highrelyguy: can you tune it down to 2TB and try again?
[16:47] <tritium> RoCUnreal: only difference is that you invoke g++, rather than gcc
[16:47] <RoCUnreal> ^ ^
[16:47] <arun_ks> hi
[16:48] <Slart> RoCUnreal: it's not that different
[16:48] <Slart> genius: If  no  -t  option  is  given, or if the auto type is specified, mount will try to guess the desired type.
[16:48] <highrelyguy> _Scooter_ No, it's a RAIDPac (single standalone unit) looks like a hard drive.
[16:48] <_Scooter_> highrelyguy: you might be able to obtain full 3TB by making a 2TB and a 1TB, then using the LVM
[16:48] <Slart> bah.. meant for genii.. and I'm sorry for the two line paste.. I'm a bad person.. I know
[16:48] <RoCUnreal> slart, im downloading the C++ compiler from the synapic
[16:49] <tritium> RoCUnreal: you really should install build-essential, as I had ubotu explain to you
[16:49] <highrelyguy> _Scooter_ OK, but don't I need fdisk to be able to see it first?
[16:49] <_Scooter_> highrelyguy: but no one makes a 3TB single drive itself - can you take it apart?
[16:49] <ianoshorty> compiz
[16:49] <Trubadurix> tobiwan: okey but screenlet is a program rigth? so i need to install that first?
[16:49] <Slart> RoCUnreal: you might want to run this in a terminal "sudo apt-get build-essential"... it gets the compiler, linker and sets some stuff up for you
[16:49]  * genii hands Slart a coffee

[16:49] <ubotu> RoCUnreal (second notice): Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first)
[16:49] <Doublenoob> LAMEGO - Sorry, you are a helpful, nice guy. I wasn't trying to offend you, i just thought you were insulting my intelligence by saying kind of.
[16:49] <RoCUnreal> tritium, what is the build essential, all this stuff sounds so confusing im almost thinking about firing up windows XP
[16:50] <tritium> RoCUnreal: see the URL above from ubotu
[16:50] <_Scooter_> highrelyguy: is the system already installed or are you trying to install to it?
[16:50] <tritium> RoCUnreal: patience.  It's worth the time to learn.
[16:50] <Slart> RoCUnreal: build-essential is ajust a meta package for downloading and setting up the regular compiling stuff you'll need
[16:50] <adamt> how do i force networkmanager not to change resolv.conf when connecting to vpn?
[16:51] <_Scooter_> highrelyguy: if it's already installed, fdisk isn't going to see it one way or another, but if you can get the LVM manager to work in either case, it might work..
[16:51] <highrelyguy> _Scooter_ I'm trying to install it.  It presents itself like an eSATA drive to the host even though internally it's a RAID - looks like a 5.25" full height hard drive.
[16:51] <RoadHazard> maxaki: how you doin?
[16:51] <maxaki> RoadHazard, i'm noob... how do i save it?
[16:51] <maxaki> ctrl + o
[16:51] <maxaki> but
[16:51] <maxaki> i didn't work
[16:51] <maxaki> LOL

[16:52] <RoadHazard> maxaki: that work?
[16:52] <negativerad> i just read 2.6.24-12 has sound problems?
[16:52] <highrelyguy> _Scooter_ I'm probably ignorant here but isn't the process for bringing a drive online fdisk then mkfs?
[16:53] <bazhang> negativerad: that would be in Hardy correct?
[16:53] <RoadHazard> maxaki: well?
[16:53] <Pici> negativerad: hardy questions in #ubuntu+1 please
[16:53] <_Scooter_> highrelyguy: no, you're right - once the hardware requirements have been met
[16:53] <maxaki> RoadHazard, check message
[16:53] <highrelyguy> _Scooter_ so where would I use LVM after fdisk?
[16:54] <Toshio> How do I disable "has joined" and "has left" messages in my xchat? Nothing in the preferences strikes me as the obvious option to do that ...
[16:54] <white_eagle> Toshio you need to find a script
[16:54] <RoCUnreal> sudo apt-get install build-essential <-- Command requires the CD and my cd-rom drive aint working...
[16:54] <white_eagle> Toshio search google,
[16:54] <Doublenoob> Lamego: Sorry, you are a helpful, nice guy. I wasn't trying to offend you, i just thought you were insulting my intelligence by saying kind of, I guess i am too sensitive to that kind of thing.
[16:54] <_Scooter_> highrelyguy: when it's partitioned - d'oh!
[16:54] <bazhang> Toshio: what about rightclicking on the nick list
[16:54] <white_eagle> RoadHazard go to software sources and disable the CD
[16:54] <Toshio> ok, I'll do that
[16:54]  * _Scooter_ needs another cup of coffee
[16:54] <Lamego> Doublenoob, let's skip it
[16:54] <minimec> Toshio: /ignore joins parts quits

[16:54] <white_eagle> Toshio for more help join #xchat
[16:55] <negativerad> when i try, sudo modprobe snd-inted8x0, i get FATAL: Module snd_inted8x0 not found.
[16:55] <bazhang> doesnt the right click do it?

[16:56] <highrelyguy> _Scooter_ so if dmes and lshw see the device and /proc/scsi show it - does that mean it might be a driver problem?
[16:56] <Doublenoob> So, with that out of the way, is the standard path the same system path?
[16:56] <white_eagle> wait, I'll rejoin
[16:56] <DRebellion> RoCUnreal, why would you want to do that?
[16:56] <white_eagle> bye
[16:56] <highrelyguy> _Scooter_ no, it's the RAIDFrame.
[16:56] <RoCUnreal> drebellion, cause i hate windows
[16:56] <RoadHazard> white_eagle: sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list remove all #'s on debs not containing the word cdrom
[16:56] <RoCUnreal> drebellion, and im just a novice linux user
[16:56] <bluefox83> RoCUnreal, why would you want to?
[16:56] <DRebellion> RoCUnreal, just install g++ it really simple
[16:56] <Pici> !compile |  RoCUnreal
[16:56] <RoCUnreal> i already have g++ installed

[16:57] <bazhang> RoCUnreal: even some of us newer users have compiled stuff ;]
[16:57] <_Scooter_> highrelyguy: it's a possibility, but i wouldn't bet any serious cash on it until i determined that the number of drives in the bay are at 2TB or less and tested that out first.
[16:57] <RoCUnreal> i tried that link but my Cd-rom drive aint working so i cant run thse commands
[16:57] <RoCUnreal> it will take hours
[16:57] <astan> can i install everything, including the root file system and /boot onto XFS?
[16:57] <maxaki> RoadHazard, Thanks allot! Now it works
[16:57] <DRebellion> RoCUnreal, system -> administration -> software sources and disable the cd
[16:58] <bazhang> RoCUnreal: the fun thing about linux is you can come here if you have questions ;]
[16:58] <RoadHazard> maxaki: might wanna do a sudo apt-get update, and sudo apt-get upgrade
[16:58] <highrelyguy> _Scooter_ oh, well I just hooked this RAIDPac up to a Windows 2003 Server and it saw the whole thing - on the same hardware - I have a test machine with multple boot drives.
[16:58] <ahorriblemess> hi everyone...
[16:58] <Khajavi> Hal and Hald service dont start automatically when booting and every time I login to gutsy I must start them manualy? what do I do?
[16:59] <Billenium> I just installed ubuntu. I have two problems. 1) My keyboard is set incorrectly, so the only keys that work are the alphanumerical ones. (123,ABC)... Also i dont have a Desktop Enviroment (it is just a command line). thanks :)
[16:59] <ahorriblemess> I'm getting a blank, white screen when I try to switch users (some times) Gutsy on HP dv6704nr
[16:59] <wizo> Billenium: what CD did you use to install? :s
[16:59] <bazhang> Billenium: you are using screen now? or are you on a different computer?
[16:59] <_Scooter_> highrelyguy: i figured as much - yeah, driver issue then :)
[17:00] <Khajavi> help.  Khajavi: Hal and Hald service dont start automatically when booting and every time I login to gutsy I must start them manualy? what do I do?
[17:00] <highrelyguy> _Scooter_ thank you for your help - you guys are what makes LINUX work!
[17:00] <Econael> which channel should I consult for network issues with ubuntu 7.10 (WLAN seems very slow)
[17:00] <Doublenoob> Lamego: So, with that out of the way, is the standard path the same system path? (if you are wondering why i double up my questions it's because I'm new to IRC and i forget to address my IMs to people by using the colon next to the screen name)
[17:00] <_Scooter_> highrelyguy: you're welcome! good luck with that, i'd be interested to know when it works... :)
[17:00] <bazhang> Econael: which card and what is the problem? when did it start etc
[17:00] <^A^kira> please help me with that http://paste.org.ru/?zgitng
[17:01] <Billenium> sorry for late response: i used unetbootin to install. And im using a different computer.
[17:01] <RoCUnreal> sweet its downloading the sudo apt-get install build-essential
[17:01] <DaemonLee> Okay, anyone got a minute to assist?
[17:01] <bazhang> ^A^kira: could you give a synopsis of your issue please?
[17:01] <RoadHazard> DaemonLee: whats the issue?
[17:01] <Billenium> i cant use the (-) key so i cant do sudo apt-get install... it looks like sudo aptuget install (a weird u character replaced -)
[17:01] <RoCUnreal> Daomonlee, dont ask to ask just ask your question ^^
[17:02] <Khajavi> Anyone know how to configure hal service to start automatically when booting gutsy?
[17:02] <bazhang> Billenium: you want gnome or kde or xfce or other?

[17:09] <bazhang> Econael: could you tell me the chipset of that card?
[17:09] <RoCUnreal> tritium, do i got like sudo make C:\text.txt
[17:10] <tritium> RoCUnreal: you've read the URL from ubotu about build-essential, and installed that?
[17:10] <frojnd> RoadHazard: yes, but when I try: mysql -u root -p I get ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)
[17:10] <RoCUnreal> tritium, do i go*
[17:10] <^A^kira> please help me with that http://paste.org.ru/?zgitng
[17:10] <Billenium> Whats the GNOME Desktop under in Sudo Aptitude?
[17:10] <RoCUnreal> tritium, yea i installed the first half of it
[17:10] <^A^kira> bazhang > cannot apt-get remove fluxbox-default-settings dunno why
[17:10] <bazhang> ^A^kira: right; and apt does not work in fluxbuntu?
[17:10] <tritium> RoCUnreal: C: is a DOS notion
[17:10] <tritium> RoCUnreal: first half?
[17:10] <bazhang> ^A^kira: did you put sudo in front of that
[17:10] <RoCUnreal> tritium, 2 lines of text
[17:10] <AndrewB> ^A^kira: are you using sudo
[17:10] <RoCUnreal> sudo apt-get install build-essential
[17:11] <RoCUnreal> sudo apt-get install cvs subversion
[17:11] <RoadHazard> frojnd: then enter it as mysql -u root -p PASSWORD with PASSWORD being the one you gave it on install of mysql
[17:11] <RoCUnreal> those are what i installed
[17:11] <DRebellion> RoCUnreal, you don't need cvs or subversion
[17:11] <Econael> bazhang: how can I find out the chipset of the pci wlan card?
[17:11] <^A^kira> i installed kde now and trying to install some progs but can't cuz apt trying to remove fluxbuntu-*
[17:11] <Billenium> ahh forget ubuntu/linux... to hard to isntall
[17:11] <user8877> дарова Народ
[17:11] <DRebellion> RoCUnreal, type: g++ file.cpp -o outputfilename
[17:11] <tritium> RoCUnreal: unless you created a Makefile for your program, you don't need to use make
[17:11] <^A^kira> AndrewB yeah
[17:11] <frojnd> RoadHazard: well when I've installed mysql I haven't entered any password. I've installed it with a package
[17:11] <^A^kira> user8877 go #ubuntu-ru
[17:12] <bazhang> Econael: for pci type lspci in the terminal; for usb type lsusb; dont paste the whole output but just the chipset like realtek or broadcom here
[17:12] <RoCUnreal> drebellin, that line of code confuses me lol :(
[17:12] <RoCUnreal> drebellin, im gonna give it a try but
[17:12] <RoCUnreal> drebellin, i predict i will fail :(
[17:12] <user8877> ^A^kira и тут хорошо = )
[17:12] <Econael> bazhang:  RaLink RT2561/RT61 802.11g PCI

[17:12] <minimec> ^A^kira: Did you try the force-options of dpkg (dpkg --force-help)?
[17:12] <wizo> hey anyone managed to run drqueue in ubuntu 7.10?
[17:13] <frojnd> RoadHazard: I'm in sql now, how can I set the username that have write read access ?
[17:13] <RoadHazard> frojnd: ok now that youre in, CREATE USER username;
[17:13] <bazhang> Econael: you use the cli sometimes? comfortable with it?
[17:13] <DRebellion> wizo, if you have a problem, best just to ask about it
[17:13] <^A^kira> minimec no, i'll try
[17:13] <Econael> I just saw in sysinfo that the cpu is running on 1600mhz instead of 2100, how can I fix this?
[17:13] <^A^kira> user8877 а зря
[17:13] <Econael> bazhang: you mean the shell?
[17:13] <erUSUL> Econael: those cards are supported in ubuntu afaik (althoughti heard problems of link stability with rt61)
[17:13] <RoadHazard> frojnd: now CREATE DATABASE databasename;
[17:13] <bazhang> Econael: aye ;]
[17:13] <erUSUL> Econael: that's cpufreq scaling
[17:13] <wizo> i use dthe package manager to install the DrQueue, and now i don't quite know where it is being installed to
[17:14] <Econael> bazhang: arr, it's already long ago, but I think I'll manage
[17:14] <Econael> erUSL: that old cpu doesn't support speedstepping
[17:14] <RoadHazard> frojnd: now SELECT PASSWORD('yourpassword');
[17:14] <bazhang> Econael: what is the encryption on your router?
[17:14] <erUSUL> Econael: which cpu?
[17:14] <DaemonLee> RoadHazard, It isn't listed under supported so am I SOL?
[17:14] <frojnd> RoadHazard: when I type in: username; I get -> ERROR 1064 (42000): You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'username' at line 1
[17:14] <Econael> erUSUL: it's an old CPU, "Athlon XP", it doesn't support speedstepping
[17:14] <erUSUL> Econael: 2100+ ??
[17:14] <DIL_> no ;
[17:14] <RoCUnreal> DRebellion, is there something wrong with this code josh@ubuntu:~$ G++ '/home/josh/Thiscode'
[17:14] <RoCUnreal> bash: G++: command not found
[17:15] <white_eagle> I love emacs
[17:15] <Econael> bazhang: wpa shared key tkip
[17:15] <DRebellion> RoCUnreal, lowercase!
[17:15] <DRebellion> RoCUnreal, g++ NOT G++
[17:15] <RoadHazard> frojnd: CREATE USER username; thats a semicolon
[17:15] <erUSUL> white_eagle: ssh!! do not say it aloud vim users can be hearing ;P
[17:15] <Econael> erUSUL: sysinfo says AMD Athlon(tm) XP 1900+ but it's a 2600+
[17:15] <tmbg_> g++ not G++
[17:15] <RoCUnreal> DRebellion, ohh i c
[17:15] <white_eagle> erUSUL: hehe, so?
[17:15] <white_eagle> :)

[17:16] <draeath> Whenever I try to set a 'vga' boot option, I get blank TTYs - no cursor or anything. I've made an equivs package to let me remove usplash without messing up all the metapackages, that did nothing I could see.
[17:16] <Econael> erUSUL: yes
[17:16] <wizo> where do i put the path for drqueue_root = line?
[17:16] <Econael> erUSUL: it should be 2100mhz
[17:16] <erUSUL> white_eagle: ah you want to start a flamefest...
[17:16] <draeath> any ideas? It's a laptop, I don't want the console to use 1/2 the screen like normal (I use the console a LOT)
[17:16] <Econael> erUSUL: it's an old CPU I've head for years in other computers
[17:16] <RoadHazard> frojnd: did it say something to the order of blah lines changed?
[17:16] <DRebellion> RoCUnreal, 0_o
[17:16] <donusa_1> Hellllllllllloooooooooo this is Don from USA michigan anyone around?
[17:16] <erUSUL> Econael: install and run as root x86info
[17:16] <white_eagle> erUSUL: I'm just kidding
[17:17] <skillz> DON
[17:17] <white_eagle> erUSUL: to see the reactions
[17:17] <skillz> loads of ppl here!
[17:17] <bazhang> Econael: I have found network-manager to be problematic at times; using the cli bypasses that--here is a complete how to on setting up wireless via cli--> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=571188
[17:17] <Billenium> bazhang: which file in aptitude do i have to install?
[17:17] <DIL_> no one here
[17:17] <DRebellion> RoCUnreal, you sure that's a plain text file?
[17:17] <RoCUnreal> DRebellion, i dont know how to save has a .cpp extension :(
[17:17] <Econael> bazhang, thank you
[17:17] <RoCUnreal> DRebellion, idk it opens with gedit
[17:17] <white_eagle> erUSUL: I'm not that exper of computers, nor a newb, but I just cant understand vim
[17:17] <white_eagle> erUSUL: I find it very hard to use
[17:17] <DRebellion> RoCUnreal, doesn't have to have .cpp extension
[17:17] <micadeyeye> hey, i get this error in var/log/apache2/error.log "sh: mkfifo: Permission denied". the php script has this code "@system("mkfifo -m 666 ".$config->reply_fifo_path );" how can i fix this? i think my apache doesn't have the permission to run that code. seems i need to do something like chown www-data somewhere??????
[17:17] <bazhang> Billenium: if you want gnome then ubuntu-desktop; for kde kubuntu-desktop; for xfce xubuntu-desktop
[17:17] <RoadHazard> Billenium: with your keyboard issue you might try running aptitude by itself and using the pseudogui
[17:18] <erUSUL> white_eagle: XP yes
[17:18] <frojnd> 18:19 < RoadHazard> frojnd: did it say something to the order of blah lines changed?
[17:18] <frojnd> no..
[17:18] <DIL_> vim =insert to edit
[17:18] <frojnd> RoadHazard:  just another line..
[17:18] <Billenium> well i cant find just ubuntu-desktop in any of the drop down menus
[17:18] <RoCUnreal> DRebellion, o

[17:18] <white_eagle> erUSUL: emacs is very much more comfortable to use for me than vim
[17:19] <RoadHazard> frojnd: no, one more statement, when you did SELECT PASSWORD it gave you a 40ish digit number, copy that including the *
[17:19] <bazhang> user8877: type /j #ubuntu-ru

[17:19] <gallardo> que te  cagas
[17:19] <draeath> anyone know what might cause ubuntu (and no others that i've tried (of many)) to give me a blank console when I try 'vga=791'
[17:19] <erUSUL> white_eagle: yes; specially becouse it comes with a tutorial ;P
[17:19] <RoadHazard> frojnd: black it in and right click copy

[17:19] <ubotu> gallardo: Si busca ayuda en español por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es, allí obtendrá más ayuda.
[17:19] <RoCUnreal> DRebellion, i have such bad luck with linux :(
[17:19] <_Scooter_> draeath: a video card or monitor that can't handle it
[17:20] <gallardo> hi sup sup
[17:20] <DRebellion> RoCUnreal, seriously, there must be something wrong with the file. open it with gedit and save it again as something else
[17:20] <draeath> _Scooter_: debian slackware suse LFS etc all work fine. its not the hardware...
[17:20] <bazhang> Billenium: can you apt-cache search ubuntu and see if it is in there? you  have a net connection on this box and no x server right?
[17:20] <white_eagle> erUSUL: meh, yeah, thats one of the reasons
[17:20] <RoCUnreal> DRebellion, ok
[17:20] <Econael> erUSUL: maybe I should check the bios setting, could have turned the frequency down after a power shortage or hard shutdown
[17:20] <Billenium> i cannot use the (-) key
[17:20] <erUSUL> Econael: yep
[17:20] <RoadHazard> frojnd: now GRANT ALL ON databasename.* TO username IDENTIFIED BY PASSWORD 'that 40 digit number with the *';
[17:20] <micadeyeye> any any any help!!!!

[17:21] <Gpalco> Dear Friends, Is there a way to boot off the Ubuntu LiveCD without stating X ??? I would like to boot without GUI first. Is there a boot parameter or something to do it????
[17:21] <skillz> micadeyeye what help u want?
[17:21] <_Scooter_> !ask | micadeyeye
[17:21] <ubotu> micadeyeye: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-)
[17:21] <draeath> _Scooter_: I tried removing usplash (had to make an equivs package so ubuntu-desktop didn't throw-up) and also passed 'nosplash' - no change.
[17:21] <^A^kira> minimec> it doesn't work.... or i doing something wrong
[17:21] <bazhang> Billenium: sorry aptitude search ubuntu

[17:21] <draeath> _Scooter_: ali chipset, if that helps at all
[17:21] <Billenium> k
[17:21] <Billenium> hold on
[17:21] <frojnd> RoadHazard: I typed like this: SELECT PASSWORD mypassword
[17:21] <Billenium> i have to (find a way) to get out of aptitude
[17:21] <_Scooter_> draeath: oh, ati.... yeeeeah.... hrm..
[17:21] <DRebellion> RoCUnreal, you wrote this file yourself?
[17:21] <draeath> _Scooter_: yea... i agree with you on that one :)
[17:22] <palpate> please i need help with ps3 ubuntu
[17:22] <_Scooter_> :)
[17:22] <skillz> micadeyeye: sorry apache isnt my strongest.. ask someone else on this channel
[17:22] <LjL> palpate: try #ubuntu-ps3
[17:22] <RoadHazard> frojnd: nope, its SELECT PASSWORD('mypassword');
[17:22] <palpate> LjL : ty
[17:22] <richard> if i want to add .Xmodmap at startup, how do i do that?
[17:22] <RoCUnreal> DRebellion, i used Gedit
[17:22] <RoCUnreal> DRebellion, and created a hello world program
[17:22] <Gpalco> Is there a way to boot off the Ubuntu LiveCD without stating X ??? I would like to boot without GUI first. Is there a boot parameter or something for it???
[17:22] <_Scooter_> draeath: is it listed anywhere on www.linux-laptop.net ?
[17:23] <micadeyeye> i think i need to do something like chmod but don't where
[17:23] <white_eagle> bye guys
[17:23] <wizo> can soemone help me out with my configuratoin of drqueue?
[17:23] <bazhang> Gpalco: why not just go for the 9MB minimal iso? then you have almost nothing but x ;]
[17:23] <draeath> _Scooter_: don't know. I think its something with the kernel config, no kernels I've built (and no other distros Ive tried) have had this issue. Also, ubuntu is the only one I've seen with mangled color pallettes on the consoles also
[17:23] <RoCUnreal> DRebellion, dangit still doesn't work
[17:24] <minimec> ^A^kira: one moment please... (phone call)
[17:24] <draeath> _Scooter_: any ideas on where I should look at
[17:24] <RoadHazard> frojnd: did that give you a 40 digit # with a * at the beginning?
[17:24] <bazhang> err nothing not even x Gpalco
[17:24] <Billenium> well there most be a way to reset the keyboard layout... IS there?
[17:24] <erUSUL> wizo: you'd better asking on a drqueue specific channel or looking for a how to on google. That software is pretty exotic
[17:24] <_Scooter_> draeath: weird - just follow the white rabbit on that site.  have you tried all fiesty/gutsy/hardy?
[17:24] <richard> how do i add my usb, for other users? it doesn't showup for them?
[17:25] <frojnd> RoadHazard: than I have problem even with creating a usre: CREATE USER joze; I get an error: ERROR 1064 (42000): You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'CREATE USER joze' at line 2
[17:25] <palpate> evry1 is idling on ubuntu-ps3
[17:25] <frojnd> RoadHazard: But if I type CREATE USER joze    it goes to the next line
[17:25] <draeath> _Scooter_: this is new to 7.10 (not sure what name) - all previous were fine
[17:25] <bazhang> Gpalco: there is also the alternate cd that is text based (ncurses)
[17:25] <RoadHazard> ok put a ; on the next line and hit enter
[17:26] <Billenium> hmm no one knows...
[17:26] <draeath> _Scooter_: linux-generic if that helps (amd64 at home)
[17:26] <Gpalco> bazhang, that wasn't 100% serious, was it ??? =)
[17:26] <_Scooter_> draeath: 7.10 is gutsy gibbon, and 8.04 is hardy herring (the new beta)
[17:26] <frojnd> RoadHazard: that's better :=)
[17:26] <Gpalco> bazhang, my graphics card is not supported out of the box
[17:26] <_Scooter_> draeath: i'd give 8.04 a shot and see what happens
[17:26] <Gpalco> bazhang, and I need to install a driver before starting x
[17:27] <bazhang> Gpalco: depends on how light you want your system; some like the install only what you need effect--the alternate cd is nice for the graphically challenged live cd cards
[17:27] <RoadHazard> frojnd: ok what have you gotten accomplished so far?
[17:27] <RoCUnreal> DRebellion, i just used a compiler with wine to create a .cp file
[17:27] <Digi_> how do I* get gproftpd to work in ubuntu
[17:27] <palpate> anyone who know about ubuntu on a ps3, i just want to know if ther's a way to run emulator for snes genesis mame or the game Mugen on a ps3 running ubuntu ?
[17:27] <Billenium> bazang: there are a lot of things that start with ubuntu; and all i could see was xubuntu, and even knowing where is was did not help me at all...
[17:27] <Gpalco> bazhang, I like the Live
[17:27] <frojnd> RoadHazard:  user, databasename and password.. I have that code incuding *...
[17:27] <wizo> erUSUL: yea i know, i think it'll be better if i compiled from source, i have no idea to what the package manager did
[17:27] <RoCUnreal> DRebellion, the g++ created a file called a.out
[17:27] <RoCUnreal> DRebellion, and i dont know how to open this file
[17:27] <Gpalco> bazhang, I only cannot boot off it and the driver is not there
[17:28] <MasterShrak> palpate search the repositories for emulators
[17:28] <bazhang> Gpalco: well try adding acpi=off to the boot parameters
[17:28] <RoadHazard> frojnd: ok GRANT ALL ON databasename.* TO username IDENTIFIED BY PASSWORD '*THAT40DIGITNUMBER';
[17:28] <_Scooter_> palpate: i'm pretty sure there is - your best bet is to try it out and provide much patience to #ubuntu-ps3
[17:28] <erUSUL> wizo: you can see easily where the files went... «dpkg -L packagename» list the installed files
[17:28] <draeath> _Scooter_: Don't know... I can try it. Oh! Debian Sid works too... that's what makes me think it might be an ubuntu-specific patch or something? (i remember them breaking AT keyboards completely to 'optimize' USB keyboards at boot)
[17:28] <Gpalco> bazhang, what is it going to do?
[17:28] <draeath> _Scooter_: thanks for the assist though
[17:28] <erUSUL> wizo: configuration is usually on /etc/
[17:28] <Gpalco> bazhang, any other effects of that parameter?
[17:29] <RoCUnreal> i give up
[17:29] <_Scooter_> draeath: yeah, ubuntu is geared more toward newer equipment, so that doesn't surprise me too much.  yw and good luck
[17:29] <wizo> erUSUL: hmm, maybe i'll give it ago later, i just uninstalled it. I'm trying to follow the documents in the site, and it's kinda messy
[17:29] <bazhang> Billenium: sorry I missed your comment; tab completion (first three letters or so then tab key gives correct spelling) sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop
[17:29] <RoCUnreal> <--- left with no choice but to boot into windows and do his c++ programming there... =(
[17:30] <RoadHazard> frojnd: that work?
[17:30] <Gpalco> bazhang, I greatly enjoyed your replys =)
[17:30] <bazhang> Gpalco: well you can reset it once you have the good drivers; nothing to worry about short term
[17:30] <Brandon_> okay maybe I'm thinking of this totally wrong. If you guys had to execute a command on another ubuntu server like in PHP to retrieve some data how would you handle that. I've tried to using ssh keys but they seem to be session specific or something and won't allow me to just execute a command like, "ssh foo@example.com lpstats -o" I figure it's asking for the passphrase and I don't want to put a random passphrase in the php file. Any ideas?
[17:31] <RoCUnreal> why is it so hard to compile a C++ ( hello world program in ubuntu )
[17:31] <_Scooter_> Brandon_: have you tried shared ssh keys?
[17:31] <Gpalco> bazhang, know I can do apt-get install, than run: startx . How do I turn acpi on ??? Will I need to?
[17:31] <Digi_> - IPv6 getaddrinfo 'led-desktop' error: No address associated with hostname  < this is what i get in the terminal after i try to activate the proftpd
[17:31] <Brandon_> _Scooter_, never heard of them. One moment
[17:31] <DRebellion> RoCUnreal, ./a.out
[17:31] <frojnd> RoadHazard: I did it like this  GRANT ALL ON muzika.* TO joze IDENTIFIED BY PASSWORD '*01440B0.....' and than ; and says: query ok, 0 rows affected...
[17:32] <kitche> RoCUnreal: umm it's not
[17:32] <DRebellion> RoCUnreal, its dead easy
[17:32] <RoCUnreal> ^^
[17:32] <kitche> !b-e > RoCUnreal
[17:32] <_Scooter_> Brandon_: basically it allows passwordless connections securely
[17:32] <RoadHazard> frojnd: beautiful, now \q
[17:32] <bazhang> Gpalco: you can do so once the drivers are installed by removing the boot parameter
[17:32] <RoCUnreal> b-e?
[17:32] <frojnd> RoadHazard: I assume now I have to restart mysql ?
[17:32] <RoadHazard> frojnd: nope
[17:32] <micadeyeye> Brandon_: can you help with that apache/php question?
[17:32] <RoadHazard> frojnd: you are ready to use your new database
[17:33] <skillz> this is completely off toppic, but does anyone know of an electronics channel?
[17:33] <skillz> for help with analogue circuit designs
[17:33] <Brandon_> _Scooter_, omg. I am going to kill some of the people in this channel. I asked, "is it possible to securely connect to a trusted server for ssh without a password" and I was told it's not possible. Thanks I found another tutorial. I'm gonna follow it
[17:33] <Billenium> AHHH
[17:33] <frojnd> RoadHazard: ok.. I'm doing this so I can complete installation of ampache
[17:33] <Billenium> I STILL CANT FIDN IT
[17:33] <DRebellion> skillz, ##electronics
[17:33] <_Scooter_> Brandon_: there are a lot of noobs here :)
[17:33] <RoCUnreal> holy cow i did it
[17:33] <skillz> thanks.
[17:33] <bazhang> skillz: you can /msg ubotu irc for a link to channel list
[17:34] <Brandon_> micadeyeye, what question. I haven't been watchign the channel
[17:34] <frojnd> RoadHazard: so now this is accomplished: A MySQL Server with a username and password that can create/modify databases I now have to do: Your webserver has read access to the /sql/ampache.sql file and the /config/ampache.cfg.php.dist file  Can u help me with this one too ?
[17:34] <RoCUnreal> DRebellion, holy cow i did it man... only thing is that i cheated
[17:34] <skillz> bazhang how do i msd?
[17:34] <skillz> *msg?
[17:34] <nicolah> I've got a friend who's trying to install ubuntu 7.10. he's using the desktop version and told me that after loading the kernel the screen goes back to the first page again (where he chose the run live or install ubuntu)
[17:34] <micadeyeye> Brandon_:  i get this error in var/log/apache2/error.log "sh: mkfifo: Permission denied". the php script has this code "@system("mkfifo -m 666 ".$config->reply_fifo_path );" how can i fix this? i think my apache doesn't have the permission to run that code. seems i need to do something like chown www-data somewhere??????
[17:34] <DIL_> richard: did you get uoy answer
[17:34] <skillz> ##electronics
[17:34] <bazhang> skillz: just type /msg ubotu keyword and get in a private convo with the bot ;]
[17:34] <Billenium> is there anything i can install on ubuntu to help me that doesnt need the dash key?
[17:35] <RoCUnreal> DRebellion, i used this dev C++ program Win32 ^^ using wine then saved has .cp and then put that file into my linux folder then did the g++ thing and popped the output file into my command line
[17:35] <RoCUnreal> then it said Hello world XD
[17:35] <RoadHazard> frojnd: you'll need to chown those directories to www-data
[17:36] <frojnd> RoadHazard: I have ampache conf in /etc/ampache/ampache.conf
[17:36] <MasterShrak> ampache? you mean apache right?
[17:36] <DRebellion> RoCUnreal, you are crazy. Just use a normal plain text editor (like gedit), save the file with any name, and run g++ file -o outputfile
[17:36] <DIL_> Billenium: find something with the dash in it copy and paste it as needed
[17:37] <micadeyeye> Brandon_: got an idea
[17:37] <frojnd> RoadHazard: http://pastebin.ca/942621 this is the output of ampache.conf
[17:37] <erUSUL> RoCUnreal: or install one of the dozen ides out there like Anjuta
[17:37] <DerDracle> For what reasons might a USB2.0 HD be detected as a USB1.1 device in Gutsy?
[17:37] <erUSUL> !info anjuta | RoCUnreal
[17:37] <ubotu> rocunreal: anjuta (source: anjuta): A GNOME development IDE, for C/C++. In component universe, is optional. Version 2:2.2.0-1ubuntu2 (gutsy), package size 1782 kB, installed size 4324 kB
[17:37] <Brandon_> micadeyeye, I have no idea. try locating mkfifo. hmm maybe php isn't running as root. Look at /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini and look at the permissions maybe I'm not sure I don't use ubuntu much.
[17:37] <bazhang> Billenium: yea great idea DIL_! just copy and paste this: sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop
[17:37] <RoadHazard> frojnd: I am sorry I have never worked with that software
[17:37] <_Scooter_> DerDracle: if it's plugged into a 1.1 port or it's using a 1.1 cable
[17:37] <RoCUnreal> Its Alight Guys i got it working with gedit :)
[17:37] <RoCUnreal> XD
[17:37] <DRebellion> erUSUL, RoCUnreal, why the hell would you need anjuta do create hello world?
[17:37] <Billenium> DIL_: Thats a great idea actually, but i dont have the ability to use the mouse...

[17:39] <Gpalc1> bazhang, missed your last reply to (19:34:07) Gpalco: bazhang, will I need to reboot to remove the parameter, or I will be able to do it during the same boot session ???
[17:39] <frojnd> RoadHazard: ok.. thanx for your help. But I don't know what mean with that statement: Your webserver has read access to the /sql/ampache.sql file and the /config/ampache.cfg.php.dist file  I mean I have this ampache.cfg.php  But I don't know how to save it in /sql/...
[17:39] <Billenium> DIL_: but how do i select it?
[17:39] <dryrot> i mean 'is it a good idea'
[17:39] <_Scooter_> dryrot: either will get the job done just fine
[17:39] <Billenium> i mean highlight it
[17:39] <^A^kira> сannot apt-get remove fluxbox-default-settings dunno why
[17:39] <bazhang> Gpalc1: sure remove it once you have the correct drivers in
[17:39] <DIL_> Billenium: shift right arrow key?
[17:40] <erUSUL> dryrot: i do not think you will find revelant differences between the two
[17:40] <Billenium> let me try
[17:40] <RoadHazard> frojnd: is it supposed to have read access to it, or not?
[17:40] <maxaki> I've got some problems with wine, I'm noob, Question: I have installed wine, And I want to install Steaminstall.exe, when I open it with wine it says: C:\windows\temp\GLC8293.tmp Path not found... What's wrong?
[17:40] <_Scooter_> maxaki: have you run wine-setup?
[17:40] <jimmygoon> Does anyone have a decent repo with the latest versions of compiz + all the plugins, etc
[17:40] <maxaki> _Scooter_, hmm... how?
[17:40] <_Scooter_> maxaki: open a terminal window and type wine-setup
[17:41] <Billenium> DLI_: that doesnt work :\
[17:41] <Cew27> hi all i need help desperately i cant update it says my software index is broken and when i run the recomended command it takes me to a java setup thing in term
[17:41] <RoadHazard> jimmygoon: gutsy has all the compiz goodies
[17:41] <jimmygoon> RoadHazard, yeah but its oooold
[17:41] <DIL_> Billenium: i tried
[17:41] <maxaki> _Scooter_: bash: wine-setup command not found
[17:41] <frojnd> RoadHazard: yes it should have.. but funny thing is I don't have /sql/ directory.. :S
[17:41] <MasterShrak> Cew27: sudo apt-get update         then try again?
[17:41] <frojnd> RoadHazard: or I don't know where it is located..
[17:41] <_Scooter_> maxaki: sec, i might've misspelled...
[17:41] <RoadHazard> frojnd: just guessing but maybe /usr/ampache/www/sql?
[17:42] <Billenium> DLI_: i dont have a desktop interface, and i cant find it in aptitude... i dont know what to do....
[17:42] <RoadHazard> frojnd: or /usr/share/ampache/www/sql
[17:42] <MasterShrak> _Scooter_ maxaki, its winecfg        iirc
[17:42] <DRebellion> Billenium, install openssh-server from aptitude
[17:42] <Billenium> Where is openssh-server?
[17:42] <Billenium> hehe...
[17:42] <Billenium> Like what is it under?
[17:42] <RoadHazard> billenium: type aptitude by itself then navigate around in there and find ubuntu-desktop
[17:42] <_Scooter_> maxaki: yeah, he's right - winecfg
[17:42] <erUSUL> !software > Billenium
[17:42] <_Scooter_> MasterShrak: :)
[17:42] <maxaki> MasterShrak; The specified Winodws directory L"C:\\Windows" is not accesible..
[17:42] <Cew27> MasterShrak: i love you
[17:42] <Billenium> RoadHazard: i tried, and i had no luck in finding it
[17:43] <Billenium> theres sooo many folders and files and things
[17:43] <MasterShrak> Cew27 :)
[17:43] <bazhang> erUSUL: he has no dash key and wants to install ubuntu-desktop; any ideas
[17:43] <frojnd> RoadHazard: great, it's in  /usr/share/ampache/www/sql
[17:43] <DRebellion> Billenium, under 'net'
[17:43] <RoadHazard> Billenium: did you aptitude update
[17:43] <DIL_> no desktop? startx maybe?
[17:43] <Pici> bazhang: copy and paste?
[17:43] <DIL_> Billenium: no desktop? startx maybe?
[17:43] <Pici> bazhang: tab complete?
[17:43] <erUSUL> bazhang: tab completion ??
[17:43] <RoadHazard> frojnd: ok now does ampache WANT your webserver to have write access to that or not?
[17:44] <frojnd> RoadHazard: It has to had this access rights.. if it wan'ts I don't know..
[17:44] <erUSUL> bazhang: at least in ksh you will be able to type «sudo apt-get install ubuntu» hit tab and select from a list of packages
[17:44] <minimec> ^A^kira: Sorry... Try sudo dpkg remove --force-all fluxbox-default-settings
[17:45] <bazhang> Pici: erUSUL he cant seem to get ( Billenium ) copy and paste working
[17:45] <RoadHazard> frojnd: here, read this http://www.ninjasown.com/wordpress/?p=6
[17:45] <erUSUL> bazhang: not even with select + middle click ?
[17:45] <Billenium> okay i updated it...
[17:46] <frojnd> RoadHazard: ok.. how can I delete databasename ?
[17:46] <Billenium> but i dont know which catagory it will be under
[17:46] <_Scooter_> erUSUL: the same thing works in bash as long as completion is turned on in .bashrc
[17:46] <Billenium> and then there are more categories inside those categories
[17:46] <Billenium> and so on
[17:46] <frojnd> RoadHazard: looks like ampache needs to create databasename itselgf It only needs uername,,
[17:46] <lunaphyte_> how do i add a disk back into an raid array it's supposed to be part of?
[17:47] <bazhang> Billenium: you tried erUSUL's suggestion? select and middle click for the copy paste?
[17:47] <^A^kira> minimec dpkg: need an action option
[17:47] <DRebellion> Billenium, under the 'net' category install openssh-server then you can ssh to your computer from another and get a fully working shell
[17:47] <erUSUL> _Scooter_: i just trried and yes it presents you with the list of posible completions but yopu can not navigate that list and choose an option like in ksh
[17:47] <Billenium> well i cant copy and paste
[17:47] <maxaki> Can someone help me with Wine in private?
[17:47] <DIL_> lunaphyte_: what type of raid?
[17:47] <Billenium> since i dont have a desktop enviroment
[17:47] <_Scooter_> erUSUL: hrmm... imma check that out now :)
[17:48] <minimec> ^A^kira: Sorry... Try sudo dpkg -r --force-all fluxbox-default-settings
[17:48] <Billenium> i dont even have anything to copy
[17:48] <erUSUL> bazhang: and aptitude curses gui ?? / to search
[17:48] <^A^kira> minimec dpkg - warning: ignoring request to remove fluxbox-default-settings which isn't installed.

[18:04] <ubotu> LollinopiL: To install a Java runtime/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java6-jre from the !Multiverse repository (in !Backports for !Edgy)
[18:04] <gretti1> my wireless card can see my router but can't connect. anyone have any ideas?
[18:04] <minimec> ^A^kira: It looks that there is a bug in the fluxbox-default-settings.deb
[18:05] <DIL_> wizo: system and user access
[18:05] <zoomboot8> age6racer: hmm, ive done it before, i'm just trying something ok?
[18:05] <age6racer> ok, thanks
[18:05] <tritium> RoadHazard: sudo dpkg-reconfigure console-setup
[18:05] <RoadHazard> tritium: will that help with billenium's plight?
[18:05] <^A^kira> minimec what could i do to remove it? i can not install neither remove anything else becouse of it
[18:05] <minimec> ^A^kira: May you should post that bug to the fluxbuntu crew a search the internet for it.
[18:05] <RoCUnreal> tritium, when i run code found on a site it works so i guess your right, it was my fault and off topic due to my lack of C++ know how.
[18:06] <RichW> Is it hard to get a application backported?
[18:06] <kitche> RichW: umm ask for it or wait for it to be backported but what app is it?
[18:06] <^A^kira> minimec ok, tnx
[18:06] <minimec> ^A^kira: Does aptitude give you the same error?
[18:06] <RichW> spe
[18:07] <RichW> python editor
[18:07] <tritium> RoadHazard: I'm not following that.  I was just answering your question.
[18:07] <kitche> RichW: hmm that ost likely will not be backported
[18:07] <RoadHazard> tritium: ahh
[18:07] <tritium> RoCUnreal: no problem :)
[18:07] <RoCUnreal> the compiler works perfect thanks for the help guys, i have another question im not sure if this is the correct channel to ask it in i need to open a    .msi   file how would i go by doing that?
[18:07] <LollinopiL> is it possible that some suspect programs disabled java ? ? ? ?
[18:08] <wizo> onemore question, is there a command to refresh teh terminal so that when i change an enviroment variable i dont have to close and reopen another terminal
[18:08] <V> RichW:  I also doubt you will be seeing that in a backport.
[18:08] <richard> DIL_: no i did not
[18:08] <^A^kira> minimec yes
[18:08] <Brandon_> _Scooter_, maybe you know this. When I try to use ssh from one of my servers to another I get this warning possible DNS spoofing thing and "Add correct host key in /root/.ssh/known_hosts to get rid of this message. Offending key in /root/.ssh/known_hosts:5" do you know what key I need to add? Or to get it to add the key?
[18:09] <richard> if i want to add .Xmodmap at startup, how do i do that?
[18:09] <titusg> when I try to use ogg123 I get "can't create mcop directory" -- how do I fix this?
[18:09] <v3ctor> RichW: is there a specific version of it you want?
[18:09] <minimec> ^A^kira: I also had some similar problems with some .debs all the years... Let me think a moment.
[18:09] <RoCUnreal> I need to run a .msi file how should i go by doing that?
[18:09] <DIL_> richard: i saw a ? relative to adding a device so users could access
[18:10] <V> RoCUnreal:  what are you trying to do ?
[18:10] <RoCUnreal> v, im trying to run a .msi file
[18:10] <richard> DIL_: asked two question :)... my second question was, how to get usb access fo rother users, i get disk to popup as my main user but not others
[18:10] <V> is there an exe installer option ?
[18:10] <RoCUnreal> v, msi is the extension its a windows based file, and if i can get to install i can throw away my Windows Drive XD
[18:11] <DIL_> richard: did you resolve that
[18:11] <richard> DIL_: no..
[18:11] <kitche> RoCUnreal: wine might install it msi can be a pain sometimes
[18:11] <V> Yeah .. i know all about MSI, I just am pretty sure without some manual effort you are going to get Wine to run it
[18:11] <^u^> RoCUnreal, .msi = microsoft installer - it's windows only
[18:11] <RichW> v3ctor: spe 0.8.4.c
[18:11] <RoCUnreal> kiche, ive tried wine but ive had problems
[18:11] <RoCUnreal> is there a wine channel?
[18:11] <v3ctor> 0.8.2a is in universe
[18:12] <tritium> RoCUnreal: unix/linux doesn't rely on file extensions for identifying file types.  It uses "magic numbers".  "man magic" will tell you more.
[18:12] <RoCUnreal> that would be a  better place t ask this question right?
[18:12] <Pici> RoCUnreal: the folks in #winehq can help you with msi files, I forget exactly what their syntax is
[18:12] <bieb> what is the program that you are trying to install via .msi?
[18:12] <bazhang> #winehq RoCUnreal
[18:12] <minimec> ^A^kira: First question: Why do you wnated to remove the package. 2nd: If you leave this package installed, can you use synaptic normally?
[18:12] <SpudDogg> RoCUnreal:  #winehq
[18:12] <RichW> v3ctor: I know that, the latest version has new features.
[18:12] <RoCUnreal> alright thanks guys, i hope i wont be using Microsoft OS's if i can get this to work
[18:12] <DIL_> richard: well edit fstab to see who has access and change accordingly to auto
[18:12] <^A^kira> minimec synaptik want's to remove this pckg, i don't care `bout it
[18:12] <V> rocunreal:  i doubt very highly though you will get a .msi to run in wine.  Most of the libs it needs wont be there
[18:12] <Nutzebahn> Hello. Could someone please recommend a firewall which enables me to control which applications can access the internet from which ones can't? (it must have this feature, I already heard of Firestarter, iptables and Guarddog, not those)
[18:12] <RoCUnreal> ^^
[18:13] <gretti1> no one got any idea's about http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=724144 ? Even a 'no, never gonna happen' will do :(
[18:13] <richard> DIL_: edit fstab? i've looked at '/etc/groups' and i added same privledges as my mian user had, adn still didnt work
[18:13] <kitche> V: wine understands msi now very well at least the latest wine :)
[18:13] <minimec> ^A^kira: OK. When did this happen? Did you remove some fluxbox things?
[18:13] <zoomboot8> age6racer: darn, I know the command is "xinit" , im just having a  tough time getting it to do firefox ... im still trying though
[18:13] <^A^kira> minimec yeah... i removed the whole fluxbox
[18:13] <Scunizi> no.. the closest thing is s.m.a.r.t. short self test
[18:14] <DIL_> richard: well edit fstab look at device
[18:14] <V> gretti1:  did you install the WPA supplicant package ?
[18:14] <gretti1> V yes
[18:14] <minimec> ^A^kira: For what reason? Would it harm you to reinstall fluxbox again?
[18:14] <age6racer> ok, thanks so much for the effort
[18:14] <^A^kira> minimec if i trying to unmark it synaptic want's to install fluxbox back
[18:14] <titusg> ah, the fix for my problem is mkdir -p $HOME/.kde/socket-$HOSTNAME
[18:15] <richard> is there a paste tool for ubuntu? ( come from gentoo and used wgetpaste, but dont see it as a package)
[18:15] <^A^kira> minimec cuz' becouse of slim kde didn't work
[18:15] <DIL_> richard: ensure rw is enabled
[18:15] <V> richard:  sudo apt-get install pastebinit
[18:16] <SpudDogg> gretti1:  i know it is possible to connect to a WPA network, but i have never done it.  there shouldn't be too many problems with that atheros based card.  get rid of ndiswrapper and check and recheck all your settings
[18:16] <V> if you mean pastebin
[18:16] <richard> V: same thing :)
[18:16] <richard> thanks
[18:17] <minimec> ^A^kira: ^A^kira Do you want to install another version or another WM like Openbox? - I would reinstall fluxbox (to be able to administrate my system) and file a bug to the fluxbuntu crew.
[18:17] <richard> DIL_: http://paste.stgraber.org/1555 thats my fstab
[18:17] <wizo> how can i check my processor speed adn stuff?
[18:18] <Brandon_> will erasing the known_hosts file for ssh get rid of the "Warning Possible DNS spoofing" thing where the key has changed?
[18:18] <gretti1> SpudDog do i do ndiswrapper -r wn6201 or remove ndiswrapper completely?
[18:18] <^A^kira> minimec reinstallin fluxbox now... will try to do with that something
[18:18] <albech> wizo: cat /proc/cpuinfo
[18:18] <minimec> ^A^kira: Looks like Openbox could be an alternative for you...
[18:18] <Marbug> hi, I have installed K3b but I can't use mp3 to burn on a disc, I have the same problem with Serpentine, what do I need to install so I can burn music CDs?
[18:18] <Dukan_> ...
[18:18] <ganu> is there any software to hide the folders and files?
[18:18] <SpudDogg> gretti1:  i would completely remove ndiswrapper.  im pretty sure the only reason you would need that is for some broadcom cards, but atheros is VERY well supported in linux
[18:19] <v3ctor> Brandon_: you could edit it and remove the ine for the host that is getting the message
[18:19] <wizo> ok.. this is where im confused
[18:19] <Jack_Sparrow> Marbug, k3b has mp3 addon check in synaptic
[18:19] <Brandon_> v3ctor, the line isn't even in the file... that's what's odd
[18:19] <wizo> in vista it says 1.6 on both cores (dual core), but in here it says cpu Mhz is 800
[18:19] <Marbug> I'll check again Jack_Sparrow
[18:19] <Xorothal> ganu: put a "." before the filename and it will show as hidden
[18:19] <v3ctor> Brandon_: rename the file and see if you still get the message
[18:19] <Brandon_> v3ctor, good point
[18:20] <gretti1> SpudDogg good to know, ok just gonna get rid, it's on the laptop.
[18:20] <JasonWoof> how do I install tcpserver?
[18:20] <wizo> am i right to presume that each core is 800 and 2 cores make it 1.6GHz or is it 1.6GHz for each core?
[18:20] <Marbug> thx Jack_Sparrow  I saw over it :)
[18:20] <Jack_Sparrow> :)
[18:20] <Jeruvy> wizo: each core
[18:21] <Brandon_> v3ctor, fixed the problem. Hmm must have been the rsa key. meh
[18:21] <wizo> Jeruvy: each core is 1.6 or 800mhz?
[18:21] <Xorothal> wizo: each is 1.6
[18:21] <Jeruvy> wizo: each core is what it's rated
[18:22] <LollinopiL> is icedtea necessary for java's installation ?
[18:22] <wizo> Xorothal, Jeruvy, i get this line "cpu MHz         : 800.000" but i thought each core was meant to be 1.6GHz, or could cpuinfo be misreading something
[18:23] <JDogHerman> can someone help me with a ubuntu issue?
[18:23] <Jeruvy> wizo you could be referring to the FSB speed
[18:23] <Threepwood> quick question, if i buy an uber laptop with the quad core and the dual GForce graphics cards, will ubuntu take advantage or would it be better to get a cheaper laptop with just the dual core and single GPU?
[18:23] <Scunizi> !ask | JDogHerman
[18:23] <ubotu> JDogHerman: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-)
[18:24] <wizo> Jeruvy: so the variable "cpu MHz" could be the FBS?
[18:24] <LollinopiL> is icedtea necessary for java's installation ?
[18:24] <zoomboot8> age6racer: are you in text mode right now?
[18:24] <Jeruvy> wizo: I have no idea what your looking at.  have you checked the BIOS to make sure it's reporting what you're supposed to have?
[18:24] <zoomboot8> Threepwood: OMG are you that bastard estvir from digg?
[18:24] <JDogHerman> !ask What can casue the issue with not being able to ping interal address but still able to ping outside?
[18:25] <blag> should I update eclipse from eclipse.org?
[18:25] <Threepwood> can't say i am, i just want to make sure the hardware of my next pc works great with ubuntu
[18:25] <Xorothal> wizo: evil gnomes have stolen your processor and replaced it with one half the speed
[18:25] <Xorothal> they're called dell
[18:25] <wizo> Jeruvy: i did a cat /proc/cpuinfo
[18:25] <Scunizi> JDogHerman, maybe using the wrong address inside for the machine.. or the machine is firewalled
[18:26] <Jeruvy> wizo: that's not what I asked.
[18:26] <JDogHerman> things were hunky dory a few days ago
[18:26] <burning-shorts> JDogHerman: maybe incorrect subnet masks
[18:26] <wizo> Jeruvy: you said you had no idea what i was looking at, so i told you that's what i was looking at =/
[18:26] <Jeruvy> wizo: lets move forward ;)
[18:27] <JDogHerman> it looks good
[18:27] <wizo> yea alright
[18:27] <JDogHerman> 255.255.255.0
[18:27] <wizo> i'll check it the next time i reboot then
[18:27] <burning-shorts> JDogHerman: can you clarify what you mean by "internal" addresses?
[18:27] <Scunizi> JDogHerman, maybe you're on a DHCP server and the machine you're trying to ping has changed IP address's
[18:27] <wizo> thanks anyway, Jeruvy Xorothal
[18:27] <bulio> is there a way to prevent Ubutnu from overwriting my /etc/motd upon every kernel update?
[18:27] <wizo> bed time now
[18:27] <nickrud> blag: yeah, using the eclipse from eclipse.org works better than the ubuntu repo
[18:27] <JDogHerman> like my router or fellow computers in the house
[18:27] <sjaak> Hello, I lost my Grub boot loader so now i cant get on my ubuntu only on my windows anyone know how to repair this // im on the ubuntu live cd now
[18:27] <bulio> anyone?
[18:28] <gretti1> SpudDogg if your still there, I removed ndiswrapper now should i try to connect using network or should i edit  /etc/network/interfaces
[18:28] <Scunizi> JDogHerman, use our nicks so we can "see" when you're talking to us.
[18:28] <burning-shorts> JDogHerman: and all the computers are connected to the same router?  so are on the same IP subnet?
[18:28] <noodlesgc> is it possible to actively redirect all traffic from eth1 to lo?
[18:28] <niketas> Hi all! Who knows, how to disable groups dividing in Pidgin?
[18:29] <mrpockets> I need something that'll let me easily put music onto my ipod
[18:29] <JDogHerman> burning-shorts: all the subnet masks are 255.255.255.0
[18:29] <blag> nickrud: thanks, brah
[18:29] <noodlesgc> mrpockets try gtkpod
[18:29] <burning-shorts> JDogHerman: that is good to know.. but mysubnet mask is 255.255.255.0.  that doesnt mean I am on your same IP subnet
[18:30] <mrpockets> ah thats it
[18:30] <Jupp> sjaak, you need to find the "grub" executable on you linux partition
[18:30] <mrpockets> thyanks
[18:30] <sjaak> Jupp, do you know where i can find it?
[18:30] <Jupp> sjaak, let me know when you do and I can walk you through the rest
[18:30] <zoomboot8> age6racer: are you in text mode, or already in the grpahical interface when you want to do it?
[18:30] <bthornton> As of 7.10, does Ubuntu run the same kernel for the 32-bit distros as the x86_64/AMD64 distros?
[18:31] <JDogHerman> burning-shorts: the router is 192.168.1.1, the ubuntu-box is 192.168.1.10 and the other computer is 192.168.1.104
[18:31] <sjaak> Jupp, found the grubb map in my boot directory
[18:31] <Threepwood> I want this one.  http://www.sagernotebook.com/product_customed.php?pid=29175  Any ideas?
[18:31] <komodo> wow, is unbuntu-gnome dumbed down?
[18:31] <genii> bthornton: 2.6.22-14 yes
[18:31] <Jupp> sjaak, your live cd will have access to your linux parition so the grub executable will be (wherever you live cd mounted your partition)/usr/sbin/grub
[18:31] <psycose> i'm getting so much trouble to prompt the user some info in a Makefile using read any tips ? thanks
[18:31] <burnerx> is there a blueprint software under ubuntu??
[18:32] <sjaak> Jupp, is it on the live cd or in the partition of my installed ubuntu?
[18:32] <burning-shorts> JDogHerman: and are you trying to connect to them by IP address or by name?  (sorry for simple questions but we shoudl start somewhere)
[18:32] <Jupp> sjaak, in your partition
[18:32] <bthornton> hmm... I have 4GB of RAM in my Pentium D system but Linux is only seeing 3.2GB of it. Is that a limitation of my OS or a limitation of my hardware?
[18:32] <JDogHerman> burning-shorts: i type... justin@blackbox:~$ ping 192.168.1.1
[18:32] <JDogHerman> PING 192.168.1.1 (192.168.1.1) 56(84) bytes of data.
[18:32] <JDogHerman> From 192.168.1.10 icmp_seq=1 Destination Host Unreachable
[18:33] <sjaak> Jupp, ok found it
[18:33] <Jack_Sparrow> bthornton, that is well documented on the web..
[18:33] <skarface> bthornton: is some of it set aside for graphics?
[18:33] <^u^> bthornton, it is a limitation of all 32bit oss
[18:33] <Jupp> sjaak, run it and you'll get a prompt
[18:34] <Jupp> sjaak, remember to run it as sudo
[18:34] <bthornton> skarface: I'm not sure--but when I only had 2GB, none was set aside because the OS saw the full 2GB.
[18:34] <Jack_Sparrow> bthornton, From what I understand if you want all 4 meg available to programs you can install the server kernel but it usually inst an issue
[18:34] <sjaak> Jupp, ok 3secs
[18:34] <burning-shorts> JDogHerman:can you connect to the router on a different protocol?  do you use a web browser or telnet to view/modify the configuration?
[18:35] <JDogHerman> burning-shorts: nope
[18:35] <LollinopiL> guys i've installed ( reinstalled ) java and i always se this message in the browser http://www.bernardotti.it/libri.html wants to load an applet.
[18:35] <LollinopiL> GNU Classpath's security implementation is not complete.
[18:35] <LollinopiL> HOSTILE APPLETS WILL STEAL AND/OR DESTROY YOUR DATA! .... i don't know what to do
[18:35] <burning-shorts> JDogHerman: in other words, is it just ping, or other traffic as well
[18:35] <psycose> i got a problem using shell read command in a Makefile as explain here : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59608/ any tips ? thanks
[18:35] <burning-shorts> JDogHerman: I am presuming you got your DHCP address from that router though, right?
[18:36] <LjL> LollinopiL: are you sure it's Sun's Java that you're using?
[18:36] <JDogHerman> burning-shorts: I tried connecting to my router and I am unable to do so with any protocol
[18:36] <Slue_Gniffer> What's a good LiveCD distro?
[18:36] <LjL> !ot | Slue_Gniffer
[18:36] <DIL_> richard: you can add your device to fstab so that when it is added added users can access
[18:36] <ubotu> Slue_Gniffer: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[18:36] <LollinopiL> LjL well i've installed it from the ubuntu's how to ...
[18:36] <Jupp> Slue_Gniffer, for what?
[18:36] <Slue_Gniffer> Just general use, for when I don't want to deal with Windblows.
[18:36] <JDogHerman> burning-shorts: but i can make a solid connection to the internt (google, and have ssh and vnc going without issues)
[18:37] <Jack_Sparrow> Jupp, Please dont contiunue     Slue_Gniffer  you are offtpoic..
[18:37] <LjL> LollinopiL: what does « sudo update-alternatives --display java » say on the first line?
[18:37] <burning-shorts> JDogHerman: and you can connect to IRC as well!
[18:38] <LollinopiL> LjL java status auto
[18:38] <LjL> LollinopiL: well, no sorry - second line
[18:38] <LollinopiL> and i've the last version
[18:38] <burning-shorts> JDogHerman: did did problem jsut start then?  you used to be able to connect to the router?
[18:38] <LollinopiL> are u sure that the problem's connected with java ?
[18:38] <JDogHerman> burning-shorts: yeah recently
[18:38] <burning-shorts> JDogHerman: or does it persist after a reboot?
[18:38] <LjL> LollinopiL: ...? the error message says so!
[18:39] <LollinopiL>  il link currently aim to a /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-icedtea/jre/bin/java
[18:39] <JDogHerman> burning-shorts: Ived tried rebooting and suck
[18:39] <JDogHerman> such
[18:39] <LollinopiL> oh ok hehe
[18:39] <LjL> LollinopiL: then you're not using sun's java
[18:39] <Scunizi> JDogHerman, try 192.168.0.1
[18:39] <LollinopiL> uhm arrg
[18:39] <richard> DIL_: thanks, ill look into it, gtg
[18:39] <LollinopiL> if i remove it and install the right one ?
[18:40] <JDogHerman> scunizi: do i want to ping broadcase?
[18:40] <JDogHerman> scunizi: do i want to ping broadcast?
[18:40] <LjL> LollinopiL: you're using the open source version, which is not yet complete, and uses parts from the GNU Classpath for things that cannot be released as open-source. if you'd rather use the still closed-source version, « sudo update-alternatives --configure java » and select /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/bin/java
[18:41] <Scunizi> JDogHerman, I may be wrong.. but I thought you were trying to ping your router..  some routers are on 192.168.0.1 and others on 192.168.1.1
[18:41] <sjaak> Jupp, i can enter the drive on my gui but in the terminal i cant get in there really wierd:S
[18:41] <micadeyeye> in another sense, how can i make my apache user have access to /tmp/ directory????
[18:41] <micadeyeye>  how can i make my apache user have access to /tmp/ directory????
[18:41] <sjaak> Jupp, and i cant execute it from the gui:S
[18:41] <burning-shorts> JDogHerman: can you go to a terminal window and type :   " arp -a"  without the quotes.  and tell me how many entries you get
[18:41] <JDogHerman> scunizi: mine is 192.168.1.1
[18:41] <Jupp> sjaak, try mounting it
[18:41] <v3ctor> micadeyeye: it should be able to access /tmp without your help
[18:41] <LollinopiL> LjL but do you think that it's necessary?
[18:41] <sjaak> ok
[18:41] <LjL> micadeyeye, every user has access to the /tmp directory
[18:41] <Scunizi> If you have a gui have you tried ping from system/admin/networking tools?
[18:41] <Jupp> sjaak, eg. sudo mount /dev/sda /mnt
[18:42] <LollinopiL> and that message ? ALL DATA DESTROYED .... am i safe ? ?
[18:42] <JDogHerman> scunizi: 2
[18:42] <Jupp> sjaak, then you'll have access through your terminal
[18:42] <JDogHerman> burning-shorts: 2
[18:42] <LjL> LollinopiL: some applets might work better, and also i don't find that message particularly reassuring (of course, it depends which sites you visit, but still)
[18:42] <sjaak> Jupp, mount: you must specify the filesystem type
[18:43] <LollinopiL> well ok, in fact ... it looks strange that from a java applic  all data could be destroyed ...
[18:43] <Jupp> sjaak, it should autodetect the filesystem, are you sure you're mounting the right partition?
[18:43] <micadeyeye> v3ctor: hey, i get this error in var/log/apache2/error.log "sh: mkfifo: Permission denied".
[18:43] <JasonWoof> Jupp, sjaak probably have to specify the partition
[18:43] <LollinopiL> however, i type sudo update-alternatives --configure java  as u said
[18:43] <micadeyeye> LjL: hey, i get this error in var/log/apache2/error.log "sh: mkfifo: Permission denied".
[18:43] <JasonWoof>  /dev/sda1 or some such
[18:43] <Jupp> sjaak, do a sudo fdisk -l and post your results in pastebin
[18:43] <burning-shorts> JDogHerman: there is only one router on the network right?  the other entry is your other computer?  so you have an entry for 192.168.1.1 and 192.168.1.4
[18:44] <Jupp> sjaak, JasonWoof is right
[18:44] <sjaak> Jupp, ok wait
[18:44] <LjL> micadeyeye: ls -l -d /tmp
[18:44] <Jupp> sjaak, but try pasting the result anyway
[18:44] <MrObvious> I was thinking of doing the following: dual booting Vista and Ubuntu and using Truecrypt to encrypt my whole laptop drive. I know it's possible. Any advice? I've seen where it's possible to move the Grub boot loader to another part of the hard drive and it looks fairly easy for me to handle.
[18:44] <JasonWoof> sjaak: a good guess is the highest numbered file starting with /dev/sda
[18:44] <sjaak> Jupp, http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/5694/
[18:44] <sjaak> Jupp, its on my sda3 the linux
[18:45] <Jupp> sjaak, sda3 is your swap
[18:45] <sjaak> Jupp, sorry:P
[18:45] <Jupp> sjaak, try sudo mount /dev/sda2 /mnt
[18:45] <earthling> if i write /var/cache/apt/archives/*  onto a cd, how can i use it to install those pkgs on a sys reinstall?
[18:45] <sjaak> i did
[18:45] <micadeyeye> LjL: drwxrwxrwt 13 root root 4096 2008-03-14 20:36 /tmp
[18:46] <Varitech> part
[18:46] <Varitech> quit
[18:46] <Jack_Sparrow> earthling, copy them back to the hd or look into aptoncd
[18:46] <sjaak> but it still isnt in the media dir
[18:46] <Jupp> sjaak, try "sudo /mnt/usr/sbin/grub"
[18:46] <Jack_Sparrow> !aptoncd
[18:46] <ubotu> APTonCD is a tool with a graphical interface which allows you to create one or more CDs or DVDs with all of the packages you've downloaded via apt-get or aptitude, creating a removable repository that you can use on other computers
[18:46] <Scunizi> earthling, you might want to install aptoncd to create a repo on the cd.
[18:46] <burning-shorts> JDogHerman: and a "netstat -rn" shows a destination of 192.168.1.0?
[18:46] <sjaak> yea
[18:46] <sjaak> im in it
[18:47] <Jupp> sjaak, use my name so I know when your typing ;)
[18:47] <TehSnarf> How would I remove a logical volume from an lvm group? I'm trying to delete the lvm group and "start over" on installing it
[18:47] <micadeyeye> LjL: is everything alright?
[18:47] <earthling> Jack_Sparrow, Scunizi: thanks
[18:47] <sjaak> Jupp, sorry forgot
[18:47] <LjL> micadeyeye: yes, it is. i don't know why apache wouldn't be able to write to it
[18:47] <sjaak> Jupp, ok whats next
[18:47] <Jupp> sjaak, now type "setup (hd0) (hd0,2)"
[18:48] <JDogHerman> burning-shorts: what do you want to know form netstat -rn?
[18:48] <v3ctor> micadeyeye: did you try asking in #apache ?
[18:48] <micadeyeye> v3ctor: yes
[18:48] <micadeyeye> can i use shell_exec in place of system()
[18:48] <sjaak> Jupp, error: cannot mount selected partition
[18:49] <xc_legend> hello
[18:49] <Jupp> sjaak, uhm, try "setup (hd0) (hd0,1)"
[18:49] <JDogHerman> burning-shorts: ?
[18:49] <burning-shorts> JDogHerman: does it show a "destination" for 192.168.1.0 in teh table? with the right interface listed
[18:49] <sjaak> Jupp, ok it worked
[18:49] <Jupp> sjaak, uhm, what did it say? can you pastebin the output?

[18:50] <burning-shorts> JDogHerman: and what interface does the destination 0.0.0.0 have?
[18:50] <JDogHerman> burning-shorts: both eth1 and eth0
[18:50] <Jupp> sjaak, sound really good, try rebooting and please let me know how it goes, I'm very curious now
[18:51] <sjaak> Jupp, ^^ ok i will
[18:51] <burning-shorts> JDogHerman: are you using 2 interfaces?  for one network?
[18:51] <clintv> hey all, i got a HDTV related questions =0)
[18:52] <JDogHerman> only one is used
[18:52] <RoadHazard> xc_legend: check out the wireless section here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EeePC

[18:53] <zedster__> anyone running urban terror?
[18:53] <xc_legend> thanks i did that on my first install ....did not work
[18:53] <burning-shorts> JDogHerman: can you go into netowrk settings then and disable the other interface?  I am presuming eth1 is the extra one but you would know that better than me.  but disable the interface you are not using. I think it is using the wrong interface for local traffic
[18:53] <Rudin_> I have a text file in a Windows partition, how can I make a link to it in my Ubuntu desktop such that when I double click it, it readily opens instead of asking me if i want to run it or display it?
[18:53] <clintv> i have a lcd proj (sony) model kdf60wf655 actually... its native 1368x768 and overscans to about 720p(1280x768)  i am having troubles forcing resolutions that i know fit in windows xp with the nvidia drivers
[18:54] <xc_legend> second fresh install tried script to add wifi madwifi
[18:54] <xc_legend> seems to have installed but still shows no wifi option on network manager
[18:54] <clintv> rudin i think ln is the symbolic link command
[18:54] <burning-shorts> JDogHerman: do you know how to do that?  under System -> Administration -> Network
[18:55] <burning-shorts> click on properties of the non-used interface and uncheck the box to disable it
[18:55] <ArmedKing> Is it possible to have a Shutdown message apear in gnome if i remote shutdown say "shutdown -h +5 "Shutting down"
[18:55] <Rudin_> clintv: I'll try that
[18:55] <JDogHerman> burning-shorts: so i should have it on roaming?
[18:55] <RoadHazard> xc_legend: try the ndiswrapper thing then, madwifi worked on mine
[18:56] <mitch_> Hey
[18:56] <LollinopiL> when's the date of ubuntu 8.04 ?
[18:56] <xc_legend> ok thanks that is the answer i am getting on all the forums
[18:56] <askand> Anyone managed to get external screen working in a different resolution then the primary screen with an aticard?
[18:56] <xc_legend> cool thanks for your help
[18:56] <clintv> i got to say ubuntu wireless is rocking ... i have a linksys WMP54G and xp cant get the driver installed for the life of it
[18:56] <mitch_> Does anyone have a recomindation for network config tool
[18:57] <burning-shorts> JDogHerman: hmm, I am not sure.. I have another PC with 2 interfaces and I was sure there was a disable box.
[18:57] <clintv> and it was automatic in ubuntu
[18:57] <bazhang> mitch_: the terminal
[18:57] <tucci> I'm on a wireless network and all of a sudden words that I am typing have started to appear on one of the other computers on the network. I'm using Ubuntu, the other computer is on OSX
[18:57] <burning-shorts> JDogHerman: there is nothing connected to that ethernet port, right?
[18:57] <JDogHerman> burning-shorts: i dont think so
[18:57] <LollinopiL> when's the date of ubuntu 8.04 ?
[18:57] <mitch_> bazhang how would i join my wireless network via the terminal
[18:57] <xc_legend> for sale now is my three month old eeepc 4g galaxy
[18:57] <xc_legend> lol
[18:57] <Deeppact> Jupp, Ok it worked first got error that my partition was not good unmounted it restarted and worked
[18:57] <xc_legend> ok thanks
[18:58] <Deeppact> Jupp, So Thank you very very much
[18:58] <bazhang> mitch_: how is it encrypted?
[18:58] <clintv> iwconfig is for wireless in terminal
[18:58] <mitch_> bazhang it is wep
[18:58] <burning-shorts> JDogHerman: if you go to a terminal and type "ifconfig -a" does the IP address show up on eth0 or eth1?

[18:58] <zedster__> I was running a linux game, urban terror, every time after about 10 minutes the window resizes and I can't do anything but ttyl sudo killall it
[18:58] <zedster__> any ideas?
[18:58] <Jupp> Deeppact, thank the people at "Linux Format" magazine, they happened to have an article on how to fix grub, I was basically walking you through it ;)
[18:59] <Deeppact> Jupp, ^^
[18:59] <Deeppact> Jupp, But im going to eat now so cya and gl
[18:59] <Jupp> Deeppact, c ya
[18:59] <zedster__> bazhang: sorry to bug but did you find that article on the wii we talked about?
[18:59] <JDogHerman> burning-shorts: eth0
[19:00] <XXiX> what does a guy have to do around here to get a very light-weight/graphic/standards-compliant browser which is so definitely !(firefox)
[19:00] <bazhang> mitch_: well that is fairly simple with network manager (the gui tool) I can give a link to a comprehensive cli how to if you want to learn more about networking in cli though
[19:00] <zedster__> XXiX: try opera
[19:00] <gretti1> bazhang i'd like to see that
[19:00] <Freezeil> Hello
[19:01] <burning-shorts> JDogHerman: ok, I am not an expert in the network configurator program (but am an expert in networking)... but if I were you I would experiment with unchecking the roaming box to disable that interface... somehow we need to get eth1 out of your routing table
[19:01] <bazhang> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=571188 gretti1 mitch_
[19:01] <bazhang> zedster__: just a second
[19:01] <gretti1> bazhang ty
[19:01] <mitch_> thanks i'll try that
[19:01] <zedster__> bazhang: no prob
[19:02] <Freezeil> I've just installed Ubuntu (7.10) for the first time. I also have Vista installed (first, mind you), and when I reboot I don't get the option to load Ubuntu instead of Vista... What can I do?
[19:02] <anna> Good evening, I have a question. I am having trouble with compiz as a window manager, how do I pick metacity in Gnome?
[19:02] <XXiX> zedster__, no good. i've tried this [ http://kmeleon.sourceforge.net/download.php ] on windows.
[19:02] <clintv> brb going to try kill edid
[19:02] <anna> I am on Hardy btw
[19:02] <XXiX> beats both opera and firefox by a mile.
[19:02] <zedster__> XXiX: either way don't all of them use the same engine?
[19:03] <XXiX> zedster__, kmeleon does- which is why it surprises me- the performance gains.
[19:03] <burning-shorts> JDogHerman: after making changes... do the netstat again and see if the "eth1" goes away
[19:03] <XXiX> with 10-15 tabs firefox takes up about 80GB+ k-meleon takes half.
[19:03] <JDogHerman> burning-shorts: i have tried taking it down but i cant
[19:04] <JDogHerman> burning-shorts: sudo ifconfig eth1 down
[19:04] <zedster__> XXiX: look up hacks for about:config in firefox that can change the foot print
[19:04] <Freezeil> Anyone? How can I install the dual-boot?
[19:04] <Juhaz> 80GB? that'd be quite something.
[19:05] <jimmygoon> what is the best way of backing up ~ and ensuring that I get EVERYTHING because copying it in nautlus leaves out certain .directories
[19:05] <zedster__> Freezeil: dualboot which OSs?
[19:05] <XXiX> typo- sorry MB
[19:05] <XXiX> :)
[19:05] <Freezeil> Vista and Ubuntu
[19:05] <zedster__> use a program called winbcd
[19:05] <bazhang> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=578747 zedster there and here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=707339
[19:05] <Freezeil> Just installed Ubuntu but I don't have the option to load Ubuntu. Instead, it just loads Vista
[19:05] <zedster__> bazhang: thanks
[19:06] <Freezeil> googled winbcd, and every site it finds is in french... :S
[19:07] <JDogHerman> burning-shorts: any idea?
[19:08] <richard__> why can't i find apache2 and php in add/remove applications?
[19:09] <zedster__> Freezeil: my bad http://neosmart.net/dl.php?id=1
[19:09] <burning-shorts> JDogHerman: I think we may need to modify the route with the "route" command to only point to eth0 with something like
[19:09] <burning-shorts> route add -net 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 dev eth0
[19:09] <burning-shorts> I dont knwo if that will remove the eth1.. we may need to remove it, then add in back in with that command
[19:10] <richard__> why can apt-get find my packages.. but not synaptec add/remove graphical thing ?
[19:10] <bazhang> richard__: the add/remove is for gui apps iirc
[19:11] <JDogHerman> burning-shorts: how can i kill eth1
[19:11] <garmada> hi
[19:11] <jtmitchum> I can't alter a partition table using fdisk - it always returns to a FAT32 bootable partition no matter what I do
[19:11] <Freezeil> zedster__ thanks mate
[19:11] <richard__> bazhang: that sounds weird :).. so if i want to search the whole database of applications, i could use apt-get ?
[19:11] <zedster__> Freezeil: no problem had the same issue
[19:11] <JDogHerman> burning-shorts: I only have 1 ethernet port but something is brining eth1 up
[19:11] <bazhang> richard__: apt-cache search related word
[19:12] <RoCUnreal> How would i fix an error like this ?? http://pastebin.com/m4e0212f4
[19:12] <richard__> bazhang: thanks
[19:12] <RoCUnreal> Does Anyone Know how i would fix an error like this?    >  http://pastebin.com/m4e0212f4 <
[19:12] <zedster__> JDogHerman: how many interfaces do you have ie. modem, wifi, eth?
[19:13] <Jack_Sparrow> RoCUnreal, Please provide basics of the issue and not just a random link
[19:13] <JDogHerman> burning-shorts: 3
[19:13] <RoCUnreal> I am trying to get maya 8.5.msi to work on Linux Ubuntu
[19:13] <JDogHerman> burning-shorts: but only 1 is phisacally connected
[19:13] <jtmitchum> it's a 300 gig seagate drive IDE, and I can't get fdisk to write the table and have it stick
[19:14] <RoCUnreal> The Link explains exactly how i go by trying t get it to work and what error i get
[19:14] <Freezeil> zedster__: is GRUB installed automatically with Ubuntu 7.10?
[19:14] <burning-shorts> JDogHerman: I dont know the steps to fix that.. but we definately need to only see eth0 in the netstat output.  are you using gutsy?
[19:14] <JDogHerman> burning-shorts: is gusty 7.10>?
[19:14] <damaltor> did anyone work with lcd4linux here? need some short hints... thx
[19:14] <burning-shorts> JDogHerman:yes
[19:14] <JDogHerman> burning-shorts: yes
[19:14] <zedster__> Freezeil:  yes if you don't change the setting during set up

[19:15] <zedster__> Freezeil: the vista boot program BCD is the devil so it over rights any other boot sector it sees
[19:16] <burning-shorts> JDogHerman: I think you need help from someone more familiar with linux interface config than myself
[19:16] <Jack_Sparrow> RoCUnreal, /join #Winehq is a better place for answers about apps under wine
[19:16] <Freezeil> zedster__: cool. so now I just reboot my system and I can load Linux instead of Vista?
[19:16] <JDogHerman> burning-shorts: do you know anyone?
[19:16] <RoCUnreal> Jack_sparrow, i have but its hard to find an Expert
[19:16] <reportings> 69
[19:16] <burning-shorts> JDogHerman: but I am confident that the root of your problem is the fact that eth1 is showing up in the netstat output
[19:16] <RoCUnreal> Jack_sparrow, solving this error is a task for a Expert :(
[19:17] <Jack_Sparrow> RoCUnreal, Expert with WINE
[19:17] <zedster__> Freezeil: wait? you want to dual boot right? so this program makes it you boot into the vista bcd than choose linux boot into grub than ubuntu its not pretty but it works
[19:17] <RoCUnreal> Jack_sparrow, yea
[19:17] <burning-shorts> JDogHerman; I was hoping someone in this channel would be able to help  ;)
[19:17] <Jack_Sparrow> RoCUnreal, Did you read any of the links for maya and wine that I linked
[19:17] <RoCUnreal> Jack_sparrow, yea i have
[19:17] <Vadi> How can I change my name in Ubuntu temporarily?
[19:17] <RoCUnreal> Jack_sparrow, i dont have the PLE version
[19:17] <JDogHerman> burning-shorts: same here
[19:17] <Freezeil> How do I change the boot order from Linux, then?
[19:17] <RoCUnreal> Jack_sparrow, i have the full version of it
[19:17] <JDogHerman> burning-shorts: I really dont want to install it all over
[19:18] <zedster__> Freezeil: it works just follow the guides on line
[19:18] <Freezeil> cool, thanks
[19:18] <Vadi> Freezeil: Get StartUp manager, you can easily change it there. Moment, I'll get you the link
[19:18] <Nookie^> Freezeil: you change it in /boot/grub in file called menu.lst
[19:18] <burning-shorts> does anyone know how to turn off an interface that Ubuntu keep adding to the routing table?  JDogHerman has multiple ethernet ports and only is using one (eth0) but I think Ubuntu is trying to use eth1 to connect to the local network
[19:18] <jimcooncat> RoCUnreal: you're trying to run Maya in Wine?
[19:18] <Vadi> Freezil: http://getdeb.net/app/Startup+Manager. It's a graphical program.
[19:19] <RoCUnreal> jimcooncat, yea
[19:19] <Freezeil> Vadi and Nookie^: thanks
[19:19] <RoCUnreal> jimcooncat, its  a .msi file tho
[19:19] <RoCUnreal> jimcooncat, it gives me that error http://pastebin.com/m4e0212f4 when i try an run it
[19:19] <Nookie^> anyone with apache experience.. i need help plz
[19:20] <CaBa|> Nookie^: nobody will answer that question
[19:20] <Nookie^> i see
[19:20] <ouellettesr> does anyone know if it is safe to mount my linux partition from vmware under windows?
[19:20] <CaBa|> Nookie^: state your problem or dont expect an answer
[19:20] <jimcooncat> RoCUnreal: that's really pushing the limits on what you could hope Wine can do. You should be looking at Virtualbox if it can handle the graphics, or Blender if you're not tied to Maya.
[19:20] <Nookie^> CaBa| did that already and 1330 people inside and no answer =(
[19:20] <magnetron> ouellettesr: it's not safe.
[19:21] <ouellettesr> magnetron why not?
[19:21] <Vadi> Maya runs in Linux natively though..
[19:21] <zedster__> Nookie^: just say it, and irc is good but its 2nd to google
[19:21] <CaBa|> Nookie^: well your only chance is to try again
[19:21] <hofmann> Hello @ll, I have a problem with my Partitions and mounting on the current Alpha 6 on Ubuntu
[19:21] <burning-shorts> does anyone know how to turn off an interface that Ubuntu keep adding to the routing table?  JDogHerman has multiple ethernet ports and only is using one (eth0) but I think Ubuntu is trying to use eth1 to connect to the local network
[19:21] <Vadi> hofmann: #ubuntu+1 is for that
[19:21] <Jack_Sparrow> hofmann, as in HArdy Alpha 6
[19:21] <Nookie^> zedster___ i have .htaccess enabled and its working when i have entered domain www.domain.com but its not working with domain.com only.. what should i add or change and where?
[19:21] <dlmnjl> glxgears keeps crashing ubuntu edgy, even with compiz turned off.
[19:22] <dlmnjl> help please.
[19:22] <Nookie^> zedster__: googled aready for a quite time now with no success =)
[19:22] <RoCUnreal> jimcooncat, Virtualbox? is it hard to setup?
[19:22] <zedster__> Nookie^: not my area, are you running webmin?
[19:22] <qzio> i have a strange problem, i can't delete a file that i own...
[19:22] <CaBa|> Nookie^: that depends how you arranged that both hosts are reachable
[19:22] <qzio> permission denied..
[19:23] <Nookie^> CaBa| they are reachable
[19:23] <jimcooncat> RoCUnreal: No, as long as you have a Windows CD handy. I'm guessing you have a fairly modern machine with 1 GB or more of RAM.
[19:23] <dlmnjl> qzio use gksudo nautilus type your password and try to delete it that way.
[19:23] <CaBa|> Nookie^: most likely they are both vhosts and (a) point to the same directory or (b) one redirects to the other
[19:23] <Nookie^> they work like a charm without .htaccess
[19:23] <qzio> dlmnjl: yeah,, sudo rm file worked..
[19:23] <Nookie^> CaBa|: ahh posible.. let me look more around
[19:23] <Jack_Sparrow> dlmnjl, What video card and what driver is it using and HOW was the driver installed
[19:23] <qzio> but its -rw-r-r qzio:qzio ... shouldnt i be able to delete it?
[19:23] <CaBa|> Nookie^: if you do _not_ redirect but point the at the same directoryroot you need to adjust the AllowOverride directive for _both_ virtual hosts
[19:24] <RoCUnreal> jimcooncat, yea i have my windows XP cd
[19:24] <RoCUnreal> jimcooncat, 2GB DDR2 800
[19:24] <RoCUnreal> jimcooncat, 4ghz CPU
[19:24] <qzio> ah! ii didnt have write at the directory
[19:24] <dlmnjl> I used envy to install the ati driver. The problem is when I do a fglrxinfo it shows a mesa driver. The card is an ati hd2600xt.
[19:24] <RoCUnreal> jimcooncat, any links to the best virtual box?
[19:24] <dlmnjl> I believe the driver was 8.421
[19:25] <Jack_Sparrow> dlmnjl, Envy was your first mistake..  that said.. let me look at my notes on getting that fixed
[19:25] <equipped> hello ubuntu legends
[19:25] <dlmnjl> thanks.
[19:25] <jimcooncat> RoCUnreal: I believe it's available with apt-get, let me check if there's any tips.
[19:25] <akan01n> hi, sorry to bother, i have already search a lot of things inside the forum with no answer, everything here is configured ok, wifi+wpa+ndiswrapper and i have the file /etc/network/interfaces configured too but it seems its not working, i do /etc/init.d/networking restart and the eth1 (which is the wifi) does not set a static ip, some can explain whats happening? thanks
[19:25] <bastid_raZor> Jack_Sparrow; can i have a peek at your notes too?

[19:26] <ubotu> RoCUnreal: virtualbox is a x86 !virtualizer. A !free edition is available in !Gutsy as 'virtualbox-ose'. A non-free edition is available at http://virtualbox.org for most Ubuntu releases (help in #vbox) - Setup details at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox
[19:26] <dlmnjl> I had compiz working for a brief moment, then I restarted the machine, and can't get anything working right again.
[19:26] <ouellettesr> magnetron any idea why its not safe, someone else told me it was safe
[19:27] <CVD-PR> PLease, the command to edit the sorucelist
[19:27] <CVD-PR> source list
[19:27] <CaBa|> CVD-PR: use any editor you like?!
[19:27] <magnetron> akan01n: ndiswrapper is only to be used in those cases where there's no linux driver available, and it will only work for some cards.
[19:27] <CaBa|> CVD-PR: the file is /etc/apt/sources.list
[19:28] <genii> CVD-PR: gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[19:28] <Jack_Sparrow> dlmnjl, are you getting seg faults?
[19:28] <CVD-PR> Why gksudo and not just sudo?
[19:28] <genii> !gksudo
[19:28] <ubotu> 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)
[19:28] <Jack_Sparrow> !gksudo
[19:28] <dlmnjl> it just crashes, back to the login screen.
[19:28] <minimec> RoCUnreal: There are two versions of VirtualBox. The one in the repos is the OpenSource Version... If you want full USB support, you better visit www.virtualbox.org for the according package.
[19:28] <magnetron> CVD-PR: why not?
[19:28] <M_Fatih> hi
[19:28] <CVD-PR> why yes?
[19:28] <magnetron> CVD-PR: see ubotu's answer
[19:28] <genii> CVD-PR: If you're interested in why not visit the link the bot provided
[19:28] <M_Fatih> has ubuntu server cd X gnome or kde ?
[19:29] <genii> M_Fatih: None of those
[19:29] <tritium> M_Fatih: no, the server installs no graphical desktop by default
[19:29] <genii> M_Fatih: The server install is command line only, no gui
[19:29] <CVD-PR> o ok
[19:29] <ouellettesr> can anyone tell me if it is safe or not to mount ubuntu from windows under vmware and why?
[19:29] <jimcooncat> RoCUnreal: I've been using the free edition for a couple months now with good results. You'll probably want to d/l the user manual too, at http://195.34.175.98/download/UserManual.pdf
[19:29] <akan01n> magnetron: what do you mean? i have everything working perfect, the only problem is that my wifi here uses static ip, i dont know whats is happening, eth1 has no ip set, but inside /etc/network/interfaces it is.
[19:29] <CaBa|> ouellettesr: who is guest and who is host?
[19:30] <M_Fatih> hmm
[19:30] <CVD-PR> gksu ==gksudo
[19:30] <CVD-PR> ?
[19:30] <magnetron> akan01n: i'm saying that ndiswrapper will not work for many types of cards.
[19:30] <tritium> M_Fatih: that doesn't mean you can't install one if you want one, though.
[19:30] <Odd-rationale> CVD-PR: Yes.
[19:30] <magnetron> !hardware > akan01n   (see private message from ubotu)
[19:30] <Odd-rationale> CVD-PR: Unless you make it not so.
[19:30] <ouellettesr> CaBa|, I will boot vista, load vmware, and point it to my ubuntu partition, Ubuntu and vista are on the same hard drive
[19:31] <M_Fatih> i'm using ubuntu 6.* in my server (for one web based project host). and i'm thinking to reinstall a new thing. what do you suggest? ubuntu server dvd or desktop dvd. i want to use some GUI tools in desktop.
[19:31] <CaBa|> ouellettesr: uh, i didnt even know that was possible
[19:31] <CaBa|> ouellettesr: but why shouldnt it be save?
[19:32] <ouellettesr> CaBa|, yes there is an option to use a physical disk, it says for advanced users though, thats why im trying to get some info before i do it
[19:32] <tritium> M_Fatih: either way, you can have a graphical desktop if you want one.  It's up to you.
[19:32] <Juul> hi. i can't figure out how to set the shortcuts for switching backwards between applications. like what alt-tab does per default, but backwards
[19:32] <magnetron> M_Fatih: if you want something graphical, don't install the server edition.
[19:32] <ouellettesr> CaBa|, i dont know
[19:32] <akan01n> magnetron: sorry, i didnt get it, ndiswrapper is working here, you are saying that ndiswrapper is causing the problem with the interfaces configuration?
[19:32] <tritium> magnetron: he can install one of the *buntu-desktop metapackages on top of it.
[19:32] <dlmnjl> any news, Captain?
[19:32] <M_Fatih> no my question is : will ubuntu desktop installation be a good server choice?
[19:33] <iwkse> hi all, anybody knows how i can run the installation inside the busybox?
[19:33] <genii> M_Fatih: Or you can install the server and have all the LAMP stuff preconfigured then install desktop gui by ubuntu-desktop
[19:33] <magnetron> Juul: alt+shift+tab
[19:33] <CVD-PR> away to restore the original sourcelist i dont see the backports
[19:33] <CaBa|> ouellettesr: well i dont know about the feature. might even be that you cannot use harddrives that are in use
[19:33] <M_Fatih> hmm
[19:33] <magnetron> akan01n: i'm saying that ndiswrapper will not work for many types of cards.
[19:33] <tritium> M_Fatih: no, if you want a server, install the serve,r and then install one of the *buntu-desktop meta-packages.  Which desktop do you prefer?
[19:33] <akan01n> k
[19:33] <Flannel> M_Fatih: usually servers don't run GUIs due to the overhead.  But sure.
[19:34] <M_Fatih> is there any port, security differences between desktop or server package?
[19:34] <perpetualsharon> what web authoring software will work with ubuntu 5.10?  I have looked at Nvu  but not sure that is compatible with my os
[19:34] <iwkse> i got an usb driver and it load the root before the cd is recognized so i can mount it only in the busybox
[19:34] <poppe> Im having trouble installing ubuntu, i reach the installation menu when booting with the cd, but when chooising Start/Install ubuntu my screen turns black after "loading linux kernel" window pops up, same thing happends with safe-graphic, and ive tried switching resolution in the install menu
[19:34] <iwkse> i tried rootdelay as a kernel parameter but does not work
[19:34] <tritium> M_Fatih: no, neither have open ports by default.
[19:35] <Flannel> poppe: Grab the alternate CD and install that way.
[19:35] <zedster__> poppe: check the disk make sure you burnt it at under 4x and yes try the alt dick
[19:35] <zedster__> disk*
[19:35] <poppe> Whats the alternate cd and where do i find that?
[19:35] <M_Fatih> actually i'm wondering what difference have between desktop package and server package. there is no information on ubuntu server page
[19:35] <tritium> poppe: text-mode installer
[19:35] <Jack_Sparrow> poppe, At start or install press F6 and remove Quiet and Splash from the command line. If it still fails.. Repeat and after removing quiet and splash add noapic acpi=off before the "--"
[19:35] <victorad> can anyone recom a software that does file synchronization over ftp?
[19:36] <tritium> poppe: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download, check the box that indicates you want the alternate CD
[19:36] <Flannel> M_Fatih: once installed, the server CD and desktop CD only differ in what packages are selected.  You are free to change between the two of them (or add/subtract/whatever) at will
[19:36] <perpetualsharon> victorad - filezilla is what I use.
[19:36] <dlmnjl> I'm baffled by this driver, compiz, glxgears issue. I don't know how it could work from one moment, and then stop working.
[19:36] <poppe> what program do you recommend me burning with? ive tried dvddecrypter and nero
[19:36] <poppe> and 2cds at 8x
[19:36] <Flannel> M_Fatih: Desktop has the Ubuntu Desktop, which is gnome and associated programs.
[19:36] <tritium> Flannel, M_Fatih: they do, however, use different kernels
[19:36] <genii> M_Fatih: server version has preconfigured Apache MySQL and PHP as well as kernel optimisations for multithreading and large memory addressing.
[19:36] <Jack_Sparrow> M_Fatih, servers dont normally need or use gnome / ubuntu-desktop
[19:36] <CVD-PR> this all the things i have in the sourcelist  http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/5696/
[19:36] <sFEARs> hoping someone can help me with this issue.. even though it requires a little bit of windows config. I have an ubuntu laptop w/ an ether net card hooked up thru crossover to a windows laptop that is connected thru wireless. I can ping back & forth when i have static IP's hardcoded, but i'm not sure what to set to pump the xp wireless thru the crossover to ubuntu. any ideas?
[19:36] <Flannel> tritium: Again, only be default
[19:37] <jimcooncat> M_Fatih: A lot of what you do with a server you do as root. So many running servers don't install a desktop environment, as that's not very safe to run as root. Running the DE as a regular user is fine on a server, though.
[19:37] <victorad> perpetualsharon: oh ok last time i checked filezilla, it didnt support sync
[19:37] <tritium> Flannel: eh?
[19:37] <M_Fatih> hmm. it seems i will install server cd, after that i need to install gnome or kde
[19:37] <Flannel> tritium: You can switch between the kernels at will.
[19:37] <age6racer> is there a way to launch a program in a way so that if/when it quits it will automatically restart?
[19:37] <tritium> M_Fatih: correct, either ubuntu-desktop (gnome), or kubuntu-desktop (kde)
[19:37] <tritium> Flannel: aye
[19:37] <Jack_Sparrow> M_Fatih, That will work
[19:37] <tritium> Flannel: ah, s/be/by in your previous comment
[19:38] <Jack_Sparrow> M_Fatih, FYI you can install both kde and gnome
[19:38] <Lamego> age6racer, you could create a script with an infinite loop calling the program
[19:38] <Flannel> M_Fatih: If you're planning on using it as a desktop, you do want the non server specific kernel.  As you'll get less choppiness.
[19:38] <M_Fatih> jimcooncat: no i'm not running desktop managers by default. when i need to touch server on server's room, i'm opening gmd, kdm etc.
[19:38] <age6racer> Lamego: wouldn't that create infinite instances?
[19:38] <M_Fatih> and i'm not using root user. generally sudo over my user
[19:38] <Flannel> M_Fatih: why not just ssh in?
[19:39] <dlmnjl> Any one else have any ideas as to why glxgears crashes, whether compiz is enabled or not.
[19:39] <M_Fatih> sometimes i need to solve problems fast. i don't have that knowledge to solve everything on terminal, ssh
[19:39] <Whitor> Hi, I just installed Ubunto Studio ... and it replaced my kernel with the RT kernel... Besided lower audio latency... is there -any- other benefit to running the RT kernel ?
[19:39] <Lamego> age6racer, no, a single instance, beeing executed sequently for infinite iterations
[19:39] <M_Fatih> :)
[19:39] <Flannel> Whitor: No.  And its only lower latency for the active application (the others obviously suffer because of it)
[19:40] <Whitor> flannel... thank you
[19:40] <age6racer> Lamego: so if there is an instance running then a second wont be started each time? I dont understand how that works?
[19:40] <Whitor> time to reboot into the generic kernel
[19:40] <Flannel> Whitor: but the guys in #ubuntustudio can answer any more specific questions about it, if you've got them
[19:40] <Whitor> Flannel, ok, tyvm !
[19:41] <M_Fatih> thanks guys Flannel  jimcooncat Jack_Sparrow tritium genii
[19:41] <M_Fatih> i need to go :) good night (from Turkey)
[19:41] <Lamego> age6racer, unless your program runs on background by default, that is the regular way programs are executed on a script, sequentially
[19:41] <perpetualsharon> victorad - you are right... it doesn't support sync
[19:41] <perpetualsharon> sorry
[19:41] <cyzie> how do i configure 3d acceleration for my onboard intel vga?
[19:42] <perpetualsharon> does anyone have any web authoring recommendations for ubuntu 5.10??
[19:43] <lunaphyte_> nano!   :D
[19:43] <dlmnjl> perpetualsharon, do you mean a good text editor with syntax highlighting or a dreamweaver gui?
[19:43] <magnetron> perpetualsharon: that version of ubuntu is not supported anymore, sorry.
[19:43] <perpetualsharon> both   can be two different apps
[19:43] <tritium> perpetualsharon: you might consider upgrading, as 5.10 is no longer supported as of 4/07
[19:44] <espham> anyone who knows about a video driver for Thinkpad R51?
[19:44] <age6racer> lamego: heres the plan... I have a small bash script that execute Firefox, then uses wmctrl to give it focus (just in case) then uses xnee to trigger fullscreen mode (F11)
[19:44] <humbolto> Does a HDMI and/or DVI signal normally contain information about the transmitted resolution? What is wrong if an LCD can not display a HDMI signal?
[19:44] <Flannel> perpetualsharon: nvu would be the favorite for that version though.  But yes, you ought to upgrade to dapper.
[19:44] <age6racer> Firefox is the only app that I want to run on thsi machine and I want it to run always. so if the user closes it I need it to restart
[19:44] <dlmnjl> I like the version of komodo for ubuntu, but I don't think it supports 5.10. Nvu is always a staple of course.
[19:44] <dlmnjl> Scribes is also excellent.
[19:44] <perpetualsharon> yeah I know it isn't supported, but it is all I can get to run on my laptop at the moment without wiping out my entire windows os as well....  that would be this weekend
[19:44] <age6racer> will your idea work for that scenario?
[19:44] <perpetualsharon> k thanks for the nvu
[19:44] <genii> age6racer: You might want to look into kiosk version then
[19:44] <dlmnjl> try komodo.
[19:45] <poppe> Should i have a unformatted partition ready when i run the text-based installation or is it easy to resize and make a new one during the installation?å
[19:45] <age6racer> I don't really want a full kiosk OS, as I might want to expand the uses of it later
[19:45] <jimcooncat> perpetualsharon: nvu is now kompozer if you can't find it as nvu
[19:46] <perpetualsharon> I saw it on the nvu site but couldn't decide which linux version to download... that was my biggest issue.
[19:46] <tritium> perpetualsharon: get it from the repos
[19:46] <perpetualsharon> brb
[19:46] <dlmnjl> goodbye everyone. Thank you.
[19:47] <magnetron> poppe: you can easily resize and create partitions with the tekt-based installer.
[19:47] <jimcooncat> perpetualsharon: you should also get firebug for your firefox; it's especially good for seeing what works well at other peoples websites.

[19:48] <lastelement0> hello all, i am having a serious problem. i shut down my computer about 2 hours ago and when i went to reboot, i get stuck on running local boot scripts. any help would be appreciated!!!
[19:49] <Nubae> hi, whats the command t find out what version of ubuntu is installed on the command line?
[19:49] <Odd-rationale> lastelement0: Anything in ctrl+alt+f2 ?
[19:49] <age6racer> lamego: So how would I go about scripting this?
[19:49] <Jowi> Nubae, lsb_release -a
[19:49] <lastelement0> odd-rationale: what does that do?
[19:49] <Nubae> doesnt' work o debian I guess
[19:50] <Odd-rationale> lastelement0: Switched terminals.
[19:50] <Lamego> age6racer, check a bash scripting manual, read the loops section
[19:50] <lastelement0> odd-rationale: one moment, going to try that
[19:50] <age6racer> ok cheers
[19:51] <lastelement0> odd-rationale: i got no response doing ctrl+alt+f2
[19:51] <Nubae> I guess the server I'm on is pure debian, any way to confirm that? ie a commnad that would work on debian as well as ubuntu?
[19:52] <Odd-rationale> lastelement0: anything in ctrl+alt+f8 ?
[19:52] <Jack_Sparrow> Nubae, uname -a
[19:52] <magnetron> Nubae: did you run lsb_release -a ?
[19:52] <Flannel> Nubae: lsb_release -a
[19:52] <Jack_Sparrow> He said lsb_release -a did not work
[19:52] <lastelement0> odd-rationale: i get blank screen with cursor top left
[19:52] <Nubae> uname -a just gives gnu/linux
[19:52] <Nubae> lsb_release command not found
[19:53] <Odd-rationale> lastelement0: OK. How about ctrl+alt+f7 ?
[19:53] <lastelement0> odd-rationale: same as ctrl+alt+f8
[19:53] <Flannel> Nubae: Assuming correctly installed, it's not Ubuntu then.
[19:53] <Flannel> Nubae: or at least, unless the server admins yanked the file
[19:54] <Jack_Sparrow> !info lsb
[19:54] <ubotu> lsb (source: lsb): Linux Standard Base 3.1 support package. In component main, is extra. Version 3.1-23.1ubuntu3 (gutsy), package size 13 kB, installed size 40 kB
[19:54] <prince_jammys> Nubae: cat /etc/issue
[19:54] <Odd-rationale> lastelement0: OK. Do you have any login prompts in any of the ctrl+alt+f1-f6 ?
[19:54] <CVD-PR> where can i find all the gutsy soruce list
[19:54] <lastelement0> ctrl+alt+f1 gives me a login prompt
[19:54] <Nubae> ah, thanks, that worked, Debian Gnu Linux 4.0
[19:55] <Flannel> Nubae: apt-cache policy [some package]
[19:55] <Odd-rationale> lastelement0: Try logging in
[19:55] <Nubae> is that etch?
[19:55] <lastelement0> odd-rationale: ok im logged in
[19:55] <Flannel> Nubae: 4.0 is etch, yes
[19:55] <Nubae> thanks, not ubuntu related, but thought it was ubuntu
[19:55] <Odd-rationale> lastelement0: Try "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start?
[19:55] <genii> CVD-PR: /etc/apt/sources.list
[19:55] <Odd-rationale> "
[19:56] <Odd-rationale> lastelement0: Without the ? . typo
[19:56] <Nubae> so will that cat /etc/issue work on any distro, or just debian based?
[19:56] <CVD-PR> genii, i dont know why but i dont have the backports etc....
[19:56] <lastelement0> odd-rationale: i get Starting GNOME Display Manager [OK] but nothing happens
[19:56] <bruenig> Nubae: most distros follow the standard
[19:56] <Nubae> cool, ok
[19:57] <genii> CVD-PR: Ah. You can add them etc. If you like I will pastebin my sources.list (although I have Canada-centric sites in it) for an example.
[19:57] <Odd-rationale> lastelement0: hmm. Check ctrl+alt+f7
[19:57] <lastelement0> odd-rationale: nothing just black screen cursor top left
[19:57] <Jack_Sparrow> Odd-rationale, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg Select vesa as your video card and 1024 max rex.  Use tab or enter to accept all other defaults            ???
[19:57] <ehird> the bzr you guys have is too old to use any launchpad repositories
[19:57] <ehird> do you see the irony?
[19:58] <Odd-rationale> Jack_Sparrow: You think that's the problem?
[19:58] <Pici> ehird: What version of Ubuntu?
[19:58] <ubuntu> anyone here?
[19:58] <Jack_Sparrow> Odd-rationale, Worth checking out it it looks to start and goes black
[19:58] <Odd-rationale> lastelement0: OK. Go back to f1 and try startx
[19:58] <Odd-rationale> Jack_Sparrow: If startx fails, we'll try that.
[19:58] <ehird> Pici: i forgot
[19:58] <ehird> :|
[19:59] <_Scooter_> ubuntu: yup
[19:59] <lastelement0> odd-rationale: i get a fatal server error:   no screens found  XIO: fatal IO error 104
[19:59] <ubuntu> i got this problem, i updated my kubuntu yesterday and then today is start it and it crashes at boot time(missing file, problme 15 it seems...) also my windows install has missing file hal.ddl problem too.. probobly derived from that.
[20:00] <ubuntu> i had to use  sudo mount -t ext3 /dev/sda1 /media/repair to be able to mount my hds when i ran the live dvd today
[20:00] <ubuntu> everything has gone mad...
[20:00] <SubOn1> what is a "*.run" file? its a driver from ati and i'd like to install it, can i? figured id ask first, its like 50mb
[20:00] <Odd-rationale> lastelement0: OK. Then try to reconfigure your xserver with: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[20:00] <Odd-rationale> Select vesa as you video driver just to be safe as Jack_Sparrow Suggested
[20:00] <ubuntu> all i did was install kubuntu and update it
[20:00] <_Scooter_> ubuntu: ouch. is it still crashing?
[20:01] <lastelement0> odd-rationale: should that work with ATI card?
[20:01] <_Scooter_> SubOn1: if you use this command:  file somefile.run  it will tell you :)
[20:01] <Sgeo> SubOn1, if you trust it, you run it directly
[20:01] <Odd-rationale> lastelement0: Yes.
[20:01] <Jack_Sparrow> lastelement0, vesa works with virtually any card
[20:01] <SubOn1> its from ATI should i trust it?
[20:01] <Sgeo> chmod u+x somefile.run
[20:01] <SubOn1> thats a serious question btw
[20:01] <Sgeo> ./somefile.run
[20:02] <poamj> I am using hardy. Every time i try to open this URL (http://www.howtoforge.com/kernel_compilation_ubuntu) firefox 3 beta crashes. I have also tryed to open with Firefox 2, and it still crashes. I managed to open it with Opera browser. Should i report it as a ubuntu bug or as a firefox bug ? could anybody using hardy test this, please ?his
[20:02] <Jack_Sparrow> !hardy | poamj
[20:02] <ubotu> poamj: Hardy Heron is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (8.04-LTS), due April 2008 - For more info, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardyHeron - CONSIDER IT TO BE PRE BETA (ALPHA) SOFTWARE - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1, NOT #ubuntu
[20:02] <_Scooter_> SubOn1: if it's directly from ati's site, then yes, it's fine. if you want to check it out for sure, install clamav and run clamscan on it.
[20:02] <genii> CVD-PR: Most of my sources.list (removed some I had for installing AccessGrid and some other apps) replace the debian.yorku.ca with something near you http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59613/
[20:02] <lastelement0> odd-rationale: ok i finished with configuring
[20:03] <Odd-rationale> lastelement0: Try startx again
[20:03] <SubOn1> well i just didnt know if the ATI driver was unreliable or something because my buddy didnt install it and its his laptop im borrowing :p
[20:03] <_Scooter_> SubOn1: the only way to check if it's going to work with his card is to check compatibility and/or install it :)
[20:04] <SubOn1> well ATI says it is specifically for this video card
[20:04] <SubOn1> i just wantged to check :p
[20:04] <_Scooter_> then go for it
[20:04] <lastelement0> odd-rationale: thank you so much. i now have my desktop
[20:04] <lastelement0> much thanks
[20:04] <Jack_Sparrow> :)
[20:04] <SubOn1> im only at 1/4 downloaded lol

[20:04] <sander_m> Hello. There are two video cards in my system. A built-in one and a PCIe card. To make it more confising, they're bot an ATI X1300 (one a simple, one a Pro). Both are configured in xorg.conf. How can I tell which one is running my screen? One is PCI bus 3:0:0 and the other on PCI bus 3:0:1. I need toknow which one I'm looking at.
[20:04] <Jack_Sparrow> Odd-rationale, still should rest the right video driver
[20:05] <Jack_Sparrow> Odd-rationale, take care...  I'll check in later
[20:05] <Odd-rationale> lastelement0: Try to reconfigure X again. This time select your video driver.
[20:05] <Odd-rationale> Jack_Sparrow: OK see ya!
[20:05] <genii> sander_m: By the bus description that looks more like a multi head adapter, not 2 separate ones
[20:05] <tuku> Is there some program to display heat and fan speeds?
[20:06] <ubuntu> no one knows anything about ym problem?
[20:06] <_Scooter_> SubOn1: .run files are *usually* just shell scripts. that's what the file command will tell you. if you open it in a pager (such as more or less) then you should see what it's really about.  IIRC, ATI will put their own brand on it and will provide an md5sum to check back against.  md5sum somefile.run  <-- that will tell you the sum of the file in question.
[20:06] <_Scooter_> SubOn1: sometimes they're something else, so yeah, it's best to check
[20:06] <sander_m> genii: How can I tell? It does have one of these DVS(/) outputs which I can split in dual VGA or dual DVI.
[20:06] <bod_> hey guys, everytime windows does not shut down properly (which is really often) ubuntu wont mount my ntfs hard drive, how can i forcefully mount it?
[20:06] <Odd-rationale> Hey bod_ ! Someone wrote about you in the ubuntu blogs...
[20:07] <SubOn1> hmmm there is also a webcam and there are drivers on the laptop manufacturers website but they are for winxp and there are no specs or model # for the cam...
[20:07] <bod_> Odd-rationale, hey,. cool,,.,.can you link me plz ;~)
[20:07] <_Scooter_> ubuntu: you should be able to reinitialize grub from there in order to solve the missing file problem
[20:07] <_Scooter_> ubuntu: 'from there' i mean from the live cd
[20:08] <_Scooter_> SubOn1: does it show up in lsusb?
[20:08] <SubOn1> yes
[20:08] <Odd-rationale> bod_: http://www.sourceguru.net/archives/119
[20:08] <genii> sander_m: The one you are using will usually be the one in the Default Screen part of the xorg.conf
[20:08] <_Scooter_> SubOn1: you might also want to check www.linux-laptop.net and see if someone's posted an ubuntu-howto for the specific model of laptop
[20:08] <sander_m> genii: Thanks
[20:09] <SubOn1> i tried easycam but it just said to send that output to his email, i guess it wasnt recognized... and easycam2... i dont read french
[20:09] <SubOn1> _Scooter_: i think this is a custom gaming laptop
[20:09] <Goose> my BCM4306 wireless card will only connect to G only networks, not B/G networks
[20:09] <minimec> sander_m: lspci in a terminal should give you the info you want.
[20:09] <majikins> Hi is there some kind of application that mounts a remote file share by just putting in a username and password?
[20:09] <bod_> Odd-rationale, cheers dude,.,. could take a while, my internet is lagging like a lagging thing rolling up a hill ;~)
[20:09] <genii> sander_m: Look for section "Screen" or such near bottom
[20:09] <Haden> bod_: it's funny :)
[20:09] <SubOn1> but ill look
[20:09] <majikins> nfs file systems for instance?
[20:09] <_Scooter_> SubOn1: should have a make/model on the bottom somewhere
[20:09] <Odd-rationale> bod_: np :)
[20:09] <Goose> my BCM4306 wireless card will only connect to G only networks, not B/G networks. I'm booted in windows right now to try and fix this. Anyone know how to?
[20:09] <sander_m> minimec: It doesn't. It just returns two X1300 entries
[20:09] <SubOn1> nope its not on that site
[20:10] <sander_m> genii: Found it. It's indeed the dual-head.
[20:10] <_Scooter_> Goose: not yet, i've got the same problem with my system at home.
[20:10] <SubOn1> lsusb returned: Bus 005 Device 002: ID 0402:5603 ALi Corp. USB 2.0 Q-tec Webcam 300
[20:10] <_Scooter_> Goose: works great in the G-mode though, that's for sure
[20:10] <Goose> _Scooter_, did you install aircrack-ng?
[20:10] <minimec> sander_m: no difference for the 'pro' card?
[20:10] <Goose> I think that's what screwed it up for me
[20:11] <_Scooter_> Goose: nah, i use WPA :)
[20:11] <sander_m> genii: It also just hit me that the internal card is disabled in the BIOS when there's another video card installed
[20:11] <bod_> Haden, Odd-rationale, that was after i went to the ops channel to find out how many ops had a p in their name,.,. then i got shouted at,.,. haha,.,. wow, cheers for lettin me no about that ;~)
[20:11] <Goose> _Scooter_, mine worked great on both until I installed aircrack. now it will ONLY connect to G-ONLY networks. it's driving me crazy. I hate booting in windows to connect to B/G networks
[20:11] <minimec> sander_m: verify the (rev x) entries
[20:11] <Odd-rationale> bod_: I hope that made you day! :)
[20:11] <_Scooter_> Goose: weird... have you tried uninstalling aircrack-ng?
[20:11] <majikins> anyone?
[20:12] <_Scooter_> majikins: smbfs/cifs
[20:12] <sander_m> minimec: No. But they do have a slightly different description. One says "VGA controller" and the other "display controller"
[20:12] <Goose> _Scooter_, even if I did, I wouldn't be able to do anything without hardwiring my laptop in. I modified my driver for packet injection. Or I should say I followed a tutorial on how to modify my driver to packet injection.
[20:12] <majikins> does that mean I need to run samba?
[20:13] <_Scooter_> majikins: yes
[20:13] <minimec> sander_m: are they both 'PCI bridge'?
[20:13] <majikins> what i want to do is allow a user just to put in his username and password on any workstation and it automatically mounts his file system from a predefined remote host
[20:13] <_Scooter_> majikins: i've had pretty good luck with it
[20:14] <majikins> but after login
[20:14] <majikins> to local account
[20:14] <sander_m> minimec: They don't say. But I found the answer already :-)
[20:14] <bod_> Odd-rationale, absolutely,.,. i was a bit annoyed though,,. Pici never told me if/how to 'grep' or narrow that search to names with just p
[20:14] <minimec> sander_m: ok ;)
[20:14] <_Scooter_> majikins: you can add a post-up to the interfaces file for that, or script it in .bashrc
[20:15] <majikins> _Scooter_: howto's I can go to?
[20:16] <SubOn1> looks like the manufacturer for this cam only offers windows drivers
[20:16] <mkan> any clue where the configuration of gnome's "Applications" menu lies? i did something stupid and it's kinda broken now :P
[20:16] <Itaku> how do i use firefox to save a flash file source code from a website?
[20:17] <jimmygoon> How do I determine the size of a folder on the command line?
[20:17] <Starnestommy> jimmygoon: du -h directory
[20:17] <erUSUL> jimmygoon: du -hs folder/
[20:17] <Itaku> and dont listen to me...
[20:17] <Sonderblade> why doesn't ubuntu enable firefox general.smoothScroll?
[20:17] <bod_> oh i have a question,.,. you no the desktop button thingy on the bottom left corner of the bottom panel, the one that minimizes all the windows,.,. is it possible to have that button in awn? if so how?
[20:18] <Itaku> * DeathLy has quit IRC (D-lined) <--- is D-Line a type of ban?
[20:18] <Starnestommy> Itaku: it's an ip-based ban from conencting to an irc server or network
[20:18] <Odd-rationale> bod_: Yes. Open awn preferences and add the show desktop
[20:19] <majikins> _Scooter_??
[20:19] <SubOn1> is it very hard to write a driver for something like this cam?
[20:19] <SubOn1> ive never written a driver
[20:20] <Itaku> how do i use firefox to save a flash file source code from a website?
[20:21] <_Scooter_> majikins: there's an extremely lengthy discussion about it here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=288534

[20:25] <Tybalt> I installed ubuntu with the "Alternate CD" because the GUI version wouldn't work, but on the website it says you get a nice looking GNOME based desktop and things.  It starts me out in command prompt, my question is, how do i get from this command prompt to the desktop, or did I install the wrong version of ubuntu to get this desktop software?
[20:25] <SubOn1> Tybalt: try startx
[20:26] <own1x> both machines have php5/mysql5/proftpd/lighttpd

[20:51] <_Scooter_> richard: chgrp -R webusers /var/www  (that will change /var/www and everything, recursively in /var/www, to the webusers group only)
[20:51] <c0da> where is .profile?
[20:51] <AboSamoor> i want to create a new keyboard  layout how can i do that ?
[20:51] <_Scooter_> c0da: ~/
[20:51] <jimcooncat> c0da: it's in there, but because it starts with a dot it's hidden
[20:51] <c0da> ok thanks
[20:51] <crackintosh> richard:  doesnt ubuntu use www-data as the user/group for apache?
[20:52] <nah> cyzie: type when you are in your cli type startx so that you can come back to your graphical interface
[20:52] <louish> Hi all.  I'm running 7.10 and I'm trying to get some output from a traceroute command.  All that show's up is the 1st and 15th (end) hops.  I have a windows box and a tracert show's every hop?   And I missing a switch or something?
[20:52] <richard> _Scooter_: is this a wise idea to do this? my first apache install
[20:52] <richard> crackintosh: my first apache install..
[20:52] <sander_m> bastid_raZor: Nothing useful in there. Just some GTK errors.
[20:52] <_Scooter_> richard: is it personal or production?
[20:52] <richard> crackintosh: could i just add my user to www-data ?
[20:52] <richard> _Scooter_: personal for now
[20:53] <richard> _Scooter_: but i want it done properly :D
[20:53] <bastid_raZor> sander_m; right it shows errors if you have any.. and i assume you have the same Gtk+ Warnings i have.. setuid
[20:53] <cyzie> nah, what do you mean ?
[20:53] <Jack_Sparrow> sander_m, Did you ever do this   sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx
[20:53] <_Scooter_> richard: well you could either addusers to the www-data or make the new webusers group and do that - honestly, webusers is probably the best way to go - you'll learn the system better that way :)
[20:54] <sander_m> bastid_raZor: Yes. That's what's in there
[20:54] <richard> p
[20:54] <richard> p
[20:54] <richard> _Scooter_: thanks
[20:54] <sander_m> Jack_Sparrow: Not manually. When I first installed the system I did click on the restricted drivers popup and enabled the proprietary driver. I imagine that may have run that command in the background
[20:55] <Jack_Sparrow> sander_m, fglrxinfo still shows mesa
[20:55] <Jack_Sparrow> sander_m, Please verify which video card?
[20:56] <Ballena> How do I unmount a cd in Ubuntu? The command "unmount" does not exist...
[20:56] <Starnestommy> Ballena: use umount
[20:56] <sander_m> Jack_Sparrow:  ATI X1300 Pro (256 Mb)
[20:56] <aldaek> two questions. 7.10 in use. when i set wired connection to use static ip, all settings correct, its not saving it... whats going on on that side... the other. on bootup/shutdown, how do i see the detection/actions routines? simply turning off the bootloader pic/progress screen does not give all info
[20:56] <sander_m> Jack_Sparrow:  Yes, it still shows Mesa
[20:56] <xybre> I'm having a real problem with locales, I've been googling for a while and I tried to fix it months ago, and I still can't get it to work.
[20:57] <Jack_Sparrow> sander_m,  I dont have much time but this looks like what you need  to do...  sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx   ...  apt-get install xserver-xgl  #not needed for aiglx but is for fglrx in Ubuntu followed by... sudo depmod -a
[20:57] <Ballena> Starnestommy: aha I must have miss red on the tut :)
[20:57] <xybre> When I do locales -a, it only shows C and POSIX and no other locales available
[20:57] <sander_m> Jack_Sparrow:  Does that complement or replace the ATI drivers I installed from ATI's website?
[20:57] <xybre> How can I install the en_US.utf8 locale?
[20:58] <khoa> khoa day
[20:58] <khoa> ji the khong biet nua
[20:58] <aldaek> oh... a reboot is required for manual configuration... lovely
[20:58] <sander_m> Jack_Sparrow:  Both were already installed. ANd I did the depmod -a trick already today with no effect
[20:59] <Jack_Sparrow> sander_m, that should not change the driver you have
[20:59] <sander_m> I've also make the symlink in /usr/X1R6/lib/modules/dri/ to the driver
[20:59] <khoa> no nhieu
[20:59] <CVD-PR> xchat command to view all my posts
[20:59] <khoa> khong biet lam ji nua
[20:59] <Jack_Sparrow> sander_m, you loged out and back after that right...
[21:00] <sander_m> Jack_Sparrow: I take no chances. I reboot everytime
[21:00] <Starnestommy> CVD-PR: I don't think there is one
[21:00] <Jack_Sparrow> sander_m, Ok.. I need to run.. wish you luck
[21:00] <richard> _Scooter_: is this correct to give read, write, execute for the whole group recursivly? chmod -R g+rwx ?
[21:00] <sander_m> Jack_Sparrow: Thanks :-/
[21:01] <kharloss> hi there. there is a way to  remove software  installed today ? something to restore to a previous state ( without any backup ofcourse - something like ... apt-get autoclean& remove ... I`m a linux noob  so sorry for my stupi question but i`m just asking if there is any way doing this ...
[21:01] <CVD-PR> Starnestommy,  one day someone show me a command that do it but i forgat
[21:01] <aldaek> while you guys are on the subject for graphics... wheres the file to edit to remove resolutions higher than 1024x768/?
[21:01] <foldart> CVD-PR: /lastlog CVD-PR
[21:01] <CVD-PR> something la /mylogs etc..
[21:01] <nah> cyzie: why you try ctrl-alt F2->F6 it's because you have problem with your mouse or your  graphic card or else, so when you're in the console you type startx so that you can reboot your X layer in linux
[21:02] <Ward1983> if i want to install grub on only one partition, and i click advanced to do that at the isntallation, what is the correct syntax to tell on what disk and partition i want grub? (sdc in my case)
[21:02] <kharloss> if vrms  can do this  i hope there is any way to do my task ..
[21:02] <Ward1983> i did this allready once, but i forgot the syntax... :(
[21:02] <CVD-PR> foldart,  nothing happend with thatn command
[21:03] <foldart> CVD-PR: hm, might not work in xchat then (I use irssi)
[21:03] <CVD-PR> o ok
[21:03] <xybre> I keep getting errors like "locale: Cannot set LC_CTYPE to default locale: No such file or directory" because, well, it's right, there are no locale directories except C and POSIX.

[21:06] <richard> okey... now i have problem: I am member of group webusers, I changed the /var/www to group webusers with: "chgrp -R webusers /var/www" I chmod "chmod -R /var/www g+rwx".. why can't i create directories as my user now, I added my user too webusers
[21:07] <Starnestommy> richard: you may need to log out then back in
[21:07] <richard> hrm..
[21:07] <_polto_> hi all
[21:07] <_Scooter_> richard: you have to remember to differentiate between files and directories, that's the key problem to most new users - you don't want to execute a text file, for instance :)
[21:08] <richard> _Scooter_: huh?
[21:08] <_Scooter_> richard: of course, that's what rm is for ;)
[21:08] <AboSamoor> CVD-PR, i want to create new layout so i can add it using  system -> preferences->layout--> add
[21:08] <richard> _Scooter_: i dont want execute on it all?
[21:08] <PBJMan> Hey, can anyone help me? I've been having some troubles running screenlets-manager- the error is here: http://pastebin.com/d81c8747 . I've googled and all, tried it all, nothing worked. Any ideas?
[21:08] <_Scooter_> richard: only on directories.
[21:08] <_polto_> who is in charge of liblivemedia ? it was not updated on ubuntu for a while. I posted a question on Launchpad, but did not have a replay.
[21:08] <richard> _Scooter_: ugh, i have to handpick that?
[21:09] <Daisuke_Ido> sorry
[21:09] <_Scooter_> richard: the command i gave you will take care of it :)  if you read the manpage for 'find', it will tell you how to select only files
[21:09] <richard> _Scooter_: oh ok
[21:09] <Ward1983> hallo
[21:09] <CVD-PR> AboSamoor,  yes
[21:09] <Ward1983> if i want to install grub on only one partition, and i click advanced to do that at the isntallation, what is the correct syntax to tell on what disk and partition i want grub? (sdc in my case)
[21:09] <_Scooter_> richard: oh, i spent my fair share of time beating my head on the keyboard trying to figure it out rofl
[21:10] <justatheory> Can anyone tell me how to disable the prompt interface when I `apt-get install slapd`?
[21:10] <Bittarman> What would be the best way to add AMD64 kernel to my boot menu.
[21:10] <justatheory> I see a call to `db_get slapd/no_configuration` in slapd.preinst, but how no idea how to set it to "true"
[21:10] <justatheory> *have* no idea
[21:10] <AboSamoor> CVD-PR, what yes ?
[21:10] <richard> _Scooter_: heh... question, is there a way to update the permissions without logging in and out ?
[21:11] <Vermux> how do I manually upgrade to kubuntu 7.10? I cant do that through adept_manager
[21:11] <nicolah> Guys I'd like to use ascii passphrase with iwconfig, is it possible ?
[21:11] <tritium> !upgrade | Vermux
[21:11] <ubotu> Vermux: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[21:11] <PBJMan> No one knows which libraries I'm missing? :S
[21:11] <PBJMan> Or what i'm doing wrong
[21:11] <_Scooter_> richard: good question. no, it's a security issue. but you CAN set users default permissions for when they create files/dirs.
[21:12] <CVD-PR> AboSamoor,  yes that you are correct
[21:12] <richard> _Scooter_: uh.. default permission? o.O
[21:12] <Ayabara> I'm trying to remove the kde-apps I have installed. How can I check which ones remain? Some package I can check the dependency on maybe?
[21:13] <nicolah> "you can also enter the key as an SCII string by using the s: prefix, Passphrase is currently not suppoted" what's the difference between passphrase and ascii key ?
[21:13] <CVD-PR> away to know what keyboard type i have 101,-104 105?
[21:13] <CVD-PR> with counting
[21:13] <CVD-PR> without
[21:13] <richard> _Scooter_: is it chmod g+s ?
[21:13] <slenentine> nicolah: sudo chmod 700 /sbin/iwconfig    then you'll have to launch it with sudo
[21:14] <nicolah> slenentine: I launch it with sudo even now, it's not a problem
[21:14] <CVD-PR> any way to know why i cant go suspende?
[21:14] <slenentine> nicolah: well then it's password protected. so what's your aim?
[21:15] <baddog144> hi all, i type: "sudo cp boost /usr/local/include/boost" but it just says: "omitting directory: boost" and it doesn't work... why? :S

[21:20] <xb3rt> can someone help me with a lag problem my ubuntu windows are having when they maximize and minimize
[21:21] <PBJMan> xb3rt: Are you running compiz?
[21:21] <todd_> xb3rt, are you using compiz?
[21:21] <Ballena> You can eject a Cd-rom with "eject /dev/cdrom" But is there a command that closes the CD-again?
[21:21] <Ward1983> how to isntall without grub?
[21:21] <xb3rt> PBJMan: todd_: yes
[21:21] <todd_> Ward1983, do you have another boot loader?
[21:22] <johanna> Hi. I have a trouble with Hardy Alfa. I've upgraded yesterday to the alfa hardy version and everything was going just fine 'till tomorrow morning. I've just booted ubuntu, I logged in on GDM and when tries to show me the gnome desktop just frizzes.
[21:22] <Ward1983> todd_ well i plan on doing grub-install /dev/sdc and then add grub in the vista bootloader
[21:23] <ar0nic> hi guys
[21:23] <Ward1983> todd_ one can also do that in the ubuntu setup, its clicking advanced in some screen, and then one needs to fill in what partition and disk to install grub on, only i dunno the syntax for that...
[21:23] <grettin> Hi, can someone help me setup wpa encryption on my laptop please? got it working unencrypted so i know it works just need a little help please.
[21:23] <baddog144> what is the linux equivalent of a Windows Enviroment variable?
[21:23] <xb3rt> PBJMan: todd_: what do you recommend
[21:23] <theaaghaaz> I'm having an error installing Rhythmbox. I'm compiling it from the development source, and I've got it "built", and I see it in my "Applications" drop-down menu. However, whenever I click the Rhythmbox icon, it shows a "Starting Rhthymbox Music Player" sign on the bottom task bar thing, but the sign just disappears after that. I tried starting it with the terminal, but it gave me this error: rhythmbox: error while loading shared 
[21:23] <nicolah> iwconfig isn't suitable for WPA encryption, isn't it ?
[21:24] <PBJMan> xb3rt: Try typing glxinfo in a terminal, and see if it lags within the next 10 seconds or so
[21:24] <slenentine> Ballena: try     eject -t /dev/cdrom
[21:24] <johanna> I'm on a tty right now using irssi. I don't know if it's useful but yesterday some packages like gnome-desktop-enviroment and gnome-keyring-manager were autoremoved. I tried to reinstall them again but the keyring manager was "deprecated".
[21:24] <Jowi> PBJMan, running feisty myself, I installed it from 3rd party repo http://compiz.org/Desktop_Screenlets (available for gutsy as well on that page). is that the version you are using?
[21:24] <Ward1983> theaaghaaz most likely its missing shared files, or doesnt find them, dunno how to solve, sorry
[21:24] <todd_> xb3rt: how much video memory?
[21:24] <^u^> theaaghaaz, why not install it from the repos?
[21:24] <ar0nic> ive had a load of problems, im a bit of a novice noob, i google and i do my homework, ive had some crazy issues with my video playback on my lappy with kubuntu..after a few formats and reinstalls ive decided to go with ubuntu and start here, first things first i need to properly get my vid card driver installed, although it recognizes my card as what it is that doesnt nessicarly mean that the drivers are installed and its working properly
[21:24] <Ward1983> todd_ did you read my replys?
[21:25] <theaaghaaz> ^u^: Because I'm hip. :P
[21:25] <PBJMan> Jowi: It might be- I used apt-get to install it... I just uninstalled it, so i'll try installing that.
[21:25] <xb3rt> todd_: how do i check, also i had ubuntu gutsy on this comp and it ran smooth as could be, then i reinstalled it and now its all studdery acting
[21:25] <todd_> Ward1983:  so do you just want to install GRUB to the partition of your choice, or not at all?
[21:25] <maxaki> I've got some problems with wine... I got some error messages when i open an .exe file
[21:25] <^u^> theaaghaaz, didn't know it was hip to do it the hard way - apologies :)
[21:25] <Jowi> PBJMan, I found the repo listed on that page to be quite stable.
[21:26] <ar0nic> my problem in kubuntu was video playback, i had all proper codecs installed and players as well and only got sound
[21:26] <ar0nic> no vid playback
[21:26] <Ward1983> todd_ the goals is indeed just the partition that i choose (the one with ubuntu on it)
[21:26] <theaaghaaz> ^u^: Ok, the real reason is that I want the unstable version.
[21:26] <Jowi> PBJMan, 0.0.10-3 is the version I have installed.
[21:26] <^u^> theaaghaaz, prob some dependency issue
[21:26] <Zyonx> hola, necesito k alguien me solucione un problema
[21:26] <ar0nic> i just booted ubuntu and am installing the updates that popped up
[21:27] <theaaghaaz> ^u^: Huh. Okay.
[21:27] <CVD-PR> why the hell wine is never updated?
[21:27] <ar0nic> then where should i go from there...the restricted packages?
[21:27] <theaaghaaz> ^u^: Am I allowed to repost my question?
[21:27] <xb3rt> todd_: any ideas?
[21:27] <Black_Magic> can someone tell me how to make a Bootable Grub CD?
[21:27] <todd_> when I installed, I chose to install to the root partition, which for me was (hd0,0).  First partition on first hard drive.
[21:27] <^u^> theaaghaaz, that's the issue with source installs - dependencies aren't automatically met
[21:27] <^u^> theaaghaaz, sure
[21:27] <ar0nic> Black_Magic download the .iso from their website, use whatever burner you'd like and burn the image
[21:28] <theaaghaaz> I'm having an error installing Rhythmbox. I'm compiling it from the development source, and I've got it "built", and I see it in my "Applications" drop-down menu.

[21:28] <todd_> Ward1983: when I installed, I chose to install to the root partition, which for me was (hd0,0).  First partition on first hard drive.
[21:28] <Ward1983> todd_ but does a fakeraid raid0 array count as 2 or 1 drives? :s
[21:28] <theaaghaaz> ^u^: I know, source installing sometimes gives me a headache.
[21:28] <Black_Magic> grub website...?
[21:28] <Ward1983> todd_ vista is installed on a partition on the fakeraid raid0 array
[21:28] <Obinooobie> I want to install wine, but i'm not very good at this, could anyone give me some guiding or a guide?
[21:28] <PBJMan> Jowi: I actually think I downloaded the package from that site using the download link, not with apt-get...
[21:29] <^u^> theaaghaaz, r/box new might use a later gtk or alsa or...
[21:29] <Jowi> PBJMan, use the apt repo. that makes sure you get all the dependencies installed.
[21:29] <PBJMan> Obinooobie: in a terminal, "type sudo apt-get install wine"  (Without the "")
[21:29] <todd_> Ward1983:  I'm sorry, I don't know about raid arrays...
[21:29] <theaaghaaz> ^u^, Maybe I should download a snapshot of the svn for both GTK and ALSA?
[21:29] <ar0nic> if anyone feels like stroking their expertise on a tough issue plz let me know
[21:30] <PBJMan> Jowi, I tried, but it looks as though the repository is offline or something- Failed to fetch http://hendrik.kaju.pri.ee/ubuntu/dists/gutsy/screenlets/binary-i386/Packages.gz  404 Not Found
[21:30] <ar0nic> thanks for all help guys
[21:30] <ar0nic> please PM tho
[21:30] <ar0nic> as this channel is moving much fast.
[21:30] <Ward1983> todd_ is it for sure that sdc is (hd2,1)? (that drive only has one partition)
[21:30] <^u^> theaaghaaz, they were just guesses - could be lots of other things as well - who knows
[21:30] <ar0nic> ive already googled to death and tried all options out there that i could figure out
[21:30] <Ward1983> todd_ if it is sure then i know enough :)
[21:31] <Jowi> PBJMan, you seem to be right. I get the same error. :-/
[21:31] <PBJMan> Jowi: :S Fail...
[21:31] <PBJMan> >.<
[21:31] <maxaki> useradd: unable to lock password file
[21:32] <grettin> could someone point me to or paste a wpa_supplicant.conf using an atheros card please
[21:32] <Black_Magic> ar0nic, What .iso..
[21:32] <theaaghaaz> I'm having an error installing Rhythmbox. I'm compiling it from the development source, and I've got it "built", and I see it in my "Applications" drop-down menu. However, whenever I click the Rhythmbox icon, it shows a "Starting Rhthymbox Music Player" sign on the bottom task bar thing, but the sign just disappears after that. I tried starting it with the terminal, but it gave me this error: rhythmbox: error while loading shared 
[21:32] <Starnestommy> theaaghaaz: what was the error?
[21:33] <theaaghaaz> Starnestommy, rhythmbox: error while loading shared libraries: librhythmbox-core.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[21:33] <Starnestommy> theaaghaaz: what happens when you run "locate librhythmbox-core.so.0" ?
[21:33] <PBJMan> Jowi: I'm not too familiar with linux, but I'm getting around- there's no way around using his site for this, is there? Well, for a repo- there's no backups...?
[21:34] <todd_> Ward1983, the numbering starts with 0, so it sounds like in your case, hd2,1 would be third hard drive, second partition
[21:34] <rathel> How do I turn off Snapping to the screen edges?
[21:34] <theaaghaaz> Starnestommy: Nothing.
[21:34] <Jowi> PBJMan, gutsy?
[21:34] <Starnestommy> theaaghaaz: does the version in the repositories work?
[21:34] <Ward1983> todd_ so (hd2.0) should be sdc, right?
[21:34] <Obinooobie> PBJMan: When i write type "sudo apt-get install wine" it say
[21:35] <Obinooobie> "sudo is hashed (/usr/bin/sudo)
[21:35] <Obinooobie> apt-get is /usr/bin/apt-get
[21:35] <theaaghaaz> Starnestommy: Yes.
[21:35] <Obinooobie> install is /usr/bin/install

[21:35] <Freezeil> I installed Ubuntu for the first time today, and I was told to install EasyBCD to have a normal dual-boot (between Ubuntu and Vista). However, I ran into a problem even google can't solve...
[21:35] <akan01n> hi, when i do /etc/init.d/networking restart, if i modifiy anything using the command 'route' the information is restored, where do i change it?
[21:35] <Freezeil> Cannot load from harddisk.
[21:35] <Freezeil> Insert Systemdisk and press any key.
[21:35] <armenb> how does a compiler decide what symbols to export and which not to?
[21:35] <PBJMan> Jowi: Yes.
[21:35] <Freezeil> What should I do?
[21:35] <armenb> i didn't explicitly say, and "nm" is showing "T" and "t" by several functions
[21:35] <Jowi> PBJMan, I haven't tried this version. might work for you: http://www.getdeb.net/app/Screenlets
[21:35] <PBJMan> Obinooobie: Next time, use www.pastebin.com
[21:36] <PBJMan> Jowi: Alright, i'll try.
[21:36] <armenb> darnit.
[21:36] <armenb> wrong channel.
[21:36] <armenb> sorry
[21:36] <Ward1983> Freezeil normally it sohuld be enough to install ubuntu, normally grub takes care of this (im not entirely sure as i got raid so i cant use grub)
[21:36] <Ward1983> but thats the way its with XP
[21:36] <Freezeil> Aye
[21:36] <Freezeil> With Vista I had to install EasyBCD
[21:37] <Freezeil> And it still won't load :(
[21:37] <aldaek> is there a way to disable bootup splash screen and see what the computer is doing on bootup? not just erros, but all processes it does?
[21:37] <rathel> lol How do I turn off Snapping to the screen edges?
[21:37] <slenentine> Freezeil: check out ntfsfix
[21:37] <Starnestommy> aldaek: change the boot options for "quiet splash" in /boot/grub/menu.lst to "nosplash"
[21:37] <Obinooobie> PBJMan: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59622/
[21:38] <Ward1983> Freezeil do you have RAID?
[21:38] <Itaku> how do i connect to a mysql server?
[21:38] <aldaek> will that show everything, not just errors, right?
[21:38] <proprietarysucks> anyone in here know why ubuntu 7.10 64-bit cannot install over pxe?
[21:38] <Freezeil> Nope, no raid
[21:38] <Freezeil> slenentine: what does ntfsfix does?
[21:38] <Starnestommy> aldaek: anything that shows output
[21:38] <Freezeil> Will it ruin my vista? :)
[21:38] <m3gach33zy> Hello ubuntu guys I need some help installing ubuntu on my 64 bit pc that has to use a dvi converter.  The problem is that i'm trying to install ubuntu and I can select install ubuntu on the pc.  Afterwards the screen flashes something really fast and then no more video... but I can hear the disc running and trying to install nevertheless...
[21:38] <Ward1983> Freezeil then it should be sufficient to just install ubuntu after vista, on another disk and/or partition
[21:38] <slenentine> no
[21:39] <Freezeil> Ward1983, I did
[21:39] <Trubadurix> hiho
[21:39] <PBJMan> Obinooobie: I don't know, honestly- if you can't find the answer here, try the forums... I've never seen that before.
[21:39] <Ward1983> Freezeil then what did you do with EasyBCD?
[21:40] <slenentine> Freezeil: read http://ubuntu-utah.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=398122  i used it once in that situation and it worked
[21:40] <m3gach33zy> Does anyone know how I can get video while using a dvi converter?
[21:40] <Obinooobie> ah, too bad..
[21:40] <Obinooobie> well, ill try the forums
[21:40] <PBJMan> Jowi: Ah, it works! Thanks :D
[21:40] <Freezeil> Ward1983: I used it to get to the bootload page-thingy
[21:40] <SubOne> well i just installed the ati video drives and then compiz wasnt running so i changed it to on in the xorg.conf and not compiz is running but it is really really slow, any ideas what i can try?
[21:41] <Trubadurix> anyone know how i make my menuline in terminal window to hide permernent? if i press dont show it will be showen next time i open a terminal and i cant edit it in the terminal profil any know?
[21:41] <Ward1983> Freezeil, normally grub is the only bootloader you need (unless you got fakeraid like me, then an easy way out can be the vista bootloader)
[21:41] <Freezeil> slenentine: thanks, will follow it right away with the livecd
[21:42] <slenentine> np
[21:42] <Ward1983> Freezeil maybe the easyest to try is jsut reinstall on the same location as the previous ubuntu installation, that usualle fixes grub too
[21:42] <JimpsEd> mv -f still exceptions when there are directories how can I force overwrite even for dirs?
[21:42] <Freezeil> Ward1983, I did...
[21:42] <proprietarysucks> getting really tiring installing ubuntu 7.10 64-bit from cd
[21:42] <proprietarysucks> anyone in here know why ubuntu 7.10 64-bit cannot install over pxe?
[21:42] <Ward1983> Freezeil ah ok try the link, i didnt notice untill now
[21:43] <theaaghaaz> I'm having an error installing Rhythmbox. I'm compiling it from the development source, and I've got it "built", and I see it in my "Applications" drop-down menu. However, whenever I click the Rhythmbox icon, it shows a "Starting Rhthymbox Music Player" sign on the bottom task bar thing, but the sign just disappears after that. I tried starting it with the terminal, but it gave me this error: rhythmbox: error while loading shared 
[21:43] <slenentine> Freezeil: ntfsprogs is in the repos, so you shouldn't even have to compile it
[21:44] <Freezeil> excellent, the easier, the better
[21:45] <xb3rt> so in regards to my ubuntu gutsy window lag problem with compiz is their a solution
[21:45] <Freezeil> See you soon, I hope :)

[22:19] <maxakiGAME> My wine doesn't work, it says: Warning: the specified Windows directory L"C:\\windows" is not accessible
[22:19] <Slart> m3gach33zy: either you try them and see if they work or you check the application database.. appdb.winehq.org
[22:19] <fr33d0m> the best way to do it is through a copy of cedega

[22:19] <Banji_dk1> Dex-Freudii:are you there?????????????
[22:20] <Itaku> whats a program to make flash objects??????????????

[22:21] <akan01n> help, my touch screen is working upside down, i drag bottom-up the cursor goes up-bottom... hehehehe..
[22:21] <tekteen> fr33d0m: flash is in linux
[22:21] <Slart> maxakiGAME: you might get better answers if you ask that question in #winehq .. that's the official wine support channel
[22:21] <Banji_dk1> [Dex-Freudii]: don´t have problem, sorry of my insistence
[22:21] <amenado> Ward1983-> how many hard disk do you have?
[22:22] <Lumbago> i was kinda wondering... how many ways can you try to install Catalyst without getting it to work?
[22:22] <grettin> seriously guy's i've been in an out of here for like the last 4 hours, I thought this was where you were supposed to go if you needed help. I mean is it that you guy's don't know? ya know that would be fine just say sorry man don't know but to get completely ignored for so long is so frustrating. sorry for havin a go, i know its not your job or anythin. I was just hopin for help if you fancy lookin at http://ubuntuforums.org/showth
[22:22] <Ward1983> amenado, 4, the first 2 in fakeraid raid0 for vista, so i installed grub only on hd2,0
[22:22] <lordleemo> m3gach33zy: http://appdb.winehq.org/  there you go m8
[22:22] <m3gach33zy> lordleemo: yeah i'm checking it out now thanks
[22:23] <Slart> grettin: most people don't answer if they don't know.. it's just the way it is.. don't take it personally
[22:23] <Ward1983> amenado, now i can choose in the vista bootloader between vista and ubuntu, and if chosen for ubuntu grub loads, but it cant boot apperantly
[22:23] <fr33d0m> tekteen.. he wants to know how to make flash objects not just view them and as far as ive seen..  adobe hasnt made a nix version
[22:23] <madman91> good day to everyone
[22:23] <tekteen> fr33d0m: nm
[22:23] <Ward1983> amenado, so ubuntu is on the third disk, to make it short :)
[22:23] <Itaku> whats a program to make flash objects??????????????
[22:24] <Ward1983> loool
[22:24] <Ward1983> Itaku, qdobe flash...
[22:24] <m3gach33zy> Does anyone know how long resizing a partition should take.... I'm installing ubuntu on my desktop right now and the most i can hear right now is that the cd is running and the display says please wait resizing partition and its at 0% for the past like 15 minutes
[22:24] <madman91> IS there a way to read why a linux box crashed? Or froze (due to heavy processes) for that matter?
[22:24] <fr33d0m> itaku...  use adobe flash but you will have to run it with wine or on a osx or winblows box
[22:24] <Slart> madman91: well.. there are logs.. syslogs.. kernel logs.. look in /var/log
[22:25] <Itaku> whats one for linux?
[22:25] <Imagineer66> Just joining but I had a similar question about adobe reader
[22:25] <amenado> Ward1983-> i dont know of how ntldr allows ubuntu to boot..and am not sure fake raid is supported at boot time
[22:25] <Imagineer66> what about using Automatix2 for ubuntu
[22:25] <Ward1983> Itaku, this is the windows one: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/ qdobe doesnt provide a linux version
[22:25] <Slart> Imagineer66: looking for a linux alternative to adobe reader?
[22:26] <Flannel> Imagineer66: don't use Automatix.
[22:26] <Imagineer66> oh, sorry, wrong program
[22:26] <Slart> !automatix
[22:26] <ubotu> automatix is not recommended, supported or needed. See http://mjg59.livejournal.com/77440.html and « /msg ubotu WorksForMe »
[22:26] <Itaku> 699 DOLLARS?
[22:26] <Ward1983> amenado, i allready did this once, fakeraid is not supported, but the vista bootloader fixes that
[22:26] <Itaku> screw that...
[22:26] <Imagineer66> Why not Automatix?
[22:26] <Ongaku> how do I uninstall atk-1.9.1...i compiled it yesterday to get something else to work and now its freaking out all my programs
[22:26] <Slart> Imagineer66: it has been known to break things.. break them so you have to reinstall ubuntu even
[22:26] <Flannel> Imagineer66: because it breaks systems
[22:26] <Ward1983> amenado, it happens like this: PC starts, vista bootloader shows, 2 options, vista and ubuntu, if i select ubuntu then grub starts
[22:26] <|DuReX|> is it possible to update to newer kernel version in ubuntu ? need some drivers from 2.6.23
[22:27] <madman91> Slart: Hm... thanks :) but any idea how I can see which process causes very high cpu useage (before hanging the computer)
[22:27] <amenado> Ward1983-> where is grub pointed? if grub starts can you interrupt it?
[22:27] <Ongaku> i compiled it, i just need to know how to uninstall it now
[22:27] <fr33d0m> you can update your kernel through the repos
[22:27] <Slart> madman91: hmm... if it isn't in the logs.. then I don't think so
[22:27] <Imagineer66> hmmm.. I guess I'll find out.  Unfortunately, I installed Automatix this afternoon.
[22:27] <|DuReX|> fr33d0m: but latest in repo is 2.6.22-11 ..
[22:27] <Slart> Imagineer66: you have my sympathy..
[22:28] <oXyG3N> #linuxac
[22:28] <Itaku> whats a program to make flash objects?????????????? THAT IS FREE...
[22:28] <Ward1983> amenado, i get the menu and everything, where can i check the details again for grub? ill pastebin the config file
[22:28] <Al-Khouli> Hi guys, i am trying to install my HP-1215 printer, but i can't get it detected here, can any help ?
[22:28] <Imagineer66> Live and learn.  Sometimes that's the price of computing.
[22:28] <tekteen> Ongaku: use sudo make uninstall in the directory you compiled it in
[22:28] <Imagineer66> I haven't used IRC in a LOOONGGG time.  How do I turn off the enters and lefts?
[22:28] <fr33d0m> hmmmm..  then you have to manually compile it and then youre just looking at work :/
[22:28] <madman91> Is there some universal system logger that logs processes/network-usage/etc.. in one readable way? .. like a hierarchy of folders
[22:28] <thesaint4444> hi guys, can anyone tell me how I change my keyboard layout in kde on fiesty? I go into the regional and language settings from system but the keyboard setting options are greyed out.... thanks.
[22:29] <amenado> Ward1983-> look at your boot.ini where it points grub
[22:29] <Ongaku> tekteen ok but where is it install default?
[22:29] <madman91> To log which processes run when and by which users
[22:29] <Slart> Imagineer66: depends on the client.. in irssi you do /ignore #ubuntu JOINS PARTS QUITS
[22:29] <Ward1983> Imagineer66, thats what my teacher probably thought earlyer today when he repeaditely asked me to explain (crappy windows) stuff
[22:29] <tekteen> thesaint4444: in systemsettings
[22:29] <Ongaku> tekteen: /usr/ something something??
[22:29] <Ward1983> amenado, will pqstebin it
[22:29] <tekteen> Ongaku: it will know
[22:29] <Slart> madman91: there's cacti.. takes some setting up.. but then it's shiny with nice diagrams and such
[22:29] <tekteen> thesaint4444: under region and language
[22:29] <Ongaku> tekteen: ok so i just type sudo make uninstall <theprogram>
[22:30] <Imagineer66> Thanks' Slart.
[22:30] <tekteen> Ongaku: no
[22:30] <madman91> Slart: is that for networking only?
[22:30] <thesaint4444> tekteen: no, it is there but greyed out.....
[22:30] <Imagineer66> Thanks slart... much more readable.
[22:30] <tekteen> Ongaku: you go to the folder where you did make install
[22:30] <Slart> madman91: all kinds of stuff.. processes.. free disk space.. ping times to servers.. network load.... lots of stuff
[22:30] <tekteen> Ongaku: then type sudo make uninstall
[22:30] <Slart> Imagineer66: indeed.. this channel can get kind of busy
[22:30] <Al-Khouli> can anyone help my with my HP-1215 printer setup ?
[22:30] <ianoshorty> hey all, im having a bit of trouble executing from tarballs. when i ./configure i get an error saying "checking for GLIB - version >= 2.8.0.... no and configure fails
[22:30] <ianoshorty> any ideas?
[22:31] <Ongaku> tekteen: yeah but where is that?? does it default to a certain folder?
[22:31] <tekteen> Ongaku: no
[22:31] <Slart> ianoshorty: you probably need a dev package.. hang on a minute.. I'll check
[22:31] <Ongaku> tekteen: i downloaded it and compiled it in the documents folder
[22:31] <thesaint4444> tekteen: there are no options available... any ideas? it is a real pain not having the correcty layout...
[22:31] <Imagineer66> I'm using Pidgin just because it was here.  What is a better IRC.  Back in the Win days, I would have used MIRC.
[22:31] <tekteen> Ongaku: then go there
[22:31] <drewb1> Hello, what a good editor if I need something to go through and redo all the indents in my program?
[22:31] <ianoshorty> ok slart thanks
[22:31] <Ongaku> tekteen: ok with cd and all that??
[22:31] <madman91> MMk, thanks Slart :)
[22:31] <tekteen> Ongaku: yes
[22:31] <Ongaku> tekteen: ok one sec
[22:32] <Ward1983> amenado, where to find it? never needed it before
[22:32] <fr33d0m> drewb1: gedit or personally i prefer nano
[22:32] <chelz> drewb1: to do it by hand, nano. to do it with amazingless, sed/awk
[22:32] <Imagineer66> drweb1  look at sed and awk.  They are not WYSIWIG but the perfect tool for what you want.
[22:32] <tekteen> thesaint4444: are you able to get to the region & language page?
[22:32] <thesaint4444> Imagineer: I use Konversation in kde...
[22:32] <drewb1> fr33d0m: gedit won't redo all the indents, will it?
[22:32] <thesaint4444> tekteen: yes...
[22:32] <amenado> Ward1983-> what are you looking for?
[22:32] <Imagineer66> Looking for a Gnome IRC.
[22:32] <tekteen> thesaint4444: then you went to keyboard layout?
[22:33] <Ward1983> amenado, boot.ini like u qsked
[22:33] <Slart> !info libglib2.0-dev | this might be the one, ianoshorty
[22:33] <Ongaku> tekteen: thank you :) i´ll have to remember that lol
[22:33] <ubotu> this might be the one, ianoshorty: libglib2.0-dev (source: glib2.0): Development files for the GLib library. In component main, is optional. Version 2.14.1-1ubuntu1 (gutsy), package size 619 kB, installed size 2328 kB
[22:33] <thesaint4444> tekteen: but I cant make any changes....
[22:33] <thesaint4444> tekteen: nothing there to change...
[22:33] <tekteen> thesaint4444: click the checkbox at the top
[22:33] <Slart> ianoshorty: to install it run "sudo apt-get install libglib2.0-dev" in a terminal
[22:33] <amenado> Ward1983-> you have to tell vista boot loader to use grub, which file was that that you modified to add the line for grub?
[22:33] <thesaint4444> tekteen: yip did that... nothing..
[22:33] <ianoshorty> so if i do sudo apt-get install libglib2.0-dev
[22:33] <Itaku> f
[22:33] <Ongaku> tekteen: haha it fixed everything too :) thank you very very much
[22:34] <Ward1983> amenado, lol thats all done, i can use grub and everything
[22:34] <ianoshorty> wow im actually making progress with linux :P
[22:34] <amenado> Ward1983-> i would think it is boot.ini but am not familiar with vista
[22:34] <tekteen> Ongaku: np
[22:34] <Itaku> whats a program to make flash objects??????????????????????????????????????????????????
[22:34] <drewb1> Imagineer66: I will look at sed and awk
[22:34] <Ward1983> amenado, grub jsut doesnt want to boot ubuntu
[22:34] <ianoshorty> thanks a lot, il let you know if that sorts it
[22:34] <tekteen> thesaint4444: ask for help in #kubuntu
[22:34] <Slart> Itaku: adding question marks won't make people help you..
[22:34] <fr33d0m> drewb1: you will have to go through and manually indent,...  maybe i misunderstood you
[22:34] <Ward1983> amenado, jsut forget vista, that part works
[22:34] <fr33d0m> Itaku: Adobe Flash
[22:34] <thesaint4444> tekteen: thanks... will do.
[22:34] <drewb1> fr33d0m: mm'kay thanks
[22:34] <amenado> Ward1983-> grub can boot ubuntu do not forget that.. its how you use vista boot loader to chain to grub
[22:34] <Itaku> fr33d0m i want it free
[22:34] <Slart> ianoshorty: this is a common thing to do.. run ./configure.. get an error.. find the dev package.. run ./configure.. rinse, repeat =)
[22:34] <ianoshorty> while im waiting - im new to irc, how to i target my message at someone?
[22:34] <Y-Town> Imagineer66: BitchX
[22:35] <Slart> ianoshorty: just type their nick first.. use tab to autocomplete
[22:35] <fr33d0m> Itaku: if you had been paying attention earlier..  we have told you 3 times
[22:35] <Ward1983> amenado, will check to be sure but that should be ok since grub worked... only it didnt boot ubuntu
[22:35] <amenado> Ward1983-> where did you install the grub? which partition, because thats where you point the vista boot loader to find  it
[22:35] <LjL> ianoshorty: simply type their names, like i'm doing. you can use the TAB key to autocomplete nicknames
[22:35] <Gunn> Itaku: too bad
[22:35] <Ward1983> amenado, hd2.0 (dev/sdc)
[22:35] <ianoshorty> Slart, thanks :)
[22:35] <Ward1983> first partition
[22:35] <Itaku> fr33d0m: im not paying a fricking 700 dollars for it
[22:35] <Imagineer66> Thanks for the help
[22:35] <richard> does someone know any tutorials for Zend Framework that guides you from the very basics of getting started with it?
[22:35] <fr33d0m> Itaku: can't help you there..  im sure you can figure it out though :P
[22:35] <Slart> ianoshorty: you're welcome

[22:36] <Gunn> Itaku: we are not here to direct people towards pirated software
[22:36] <Gunn> Itaku: we are here to help and get help from others for ubuntu
[22:36] <Ward1983> amenado, perfect timing i was just about to say the same :) going for a smoke, see you in a few minutes

[22:43] <Madroxprime> i checked my box ot make sure no one jacked any and it's all there
[22:43] <Pelo> __mikem, turn off the effects , see if you still have the problem, that will help you figure out the problem
[22:43] <Slart> Madroxprime: do you have three sticks of 512 Mb? does all the memory work in windows?
[22:43] <bjarki> If I am as name-desktop in VIM. can I expect to find files out in the "root"? (I can't find the file I want to edit).
[22:43] <__mikem> Pelo, oh
[22:43] <m3gach33zy> damit can anyone tell me why the resizing partition is taking so long? its been about 40 minutes and i'm still at 0%
[22:44] <Slart> m3gach33zy: well.. it has to do a lot of things.. move files around.. etc.. how large is the partition?
[22:44] <Madroxprime> I got two one gig and a 512, it all works in Windows ...is it a ram pairing issue?
[22:44] <Pelo> m3gach33zy, ntfs partiton ? did you defrag it frist ? stuff needs to me moved around, it might take a while
[22:44] <m3gach33zy> Slart: well i did 78.8 gb partition
[22:44] <ianoshorty> Slart, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59628/
[22:44] <__mikem> Pelo, okay, they are off, now, if the Desktop efects are the problem, how do I fix it?
[22:44] <ianoshorty> is that right?
[22:45] <m3gach33zy> Slart: lol now that i open my big mouth its done xD
[22:45] <Slart> Madroxprime: so.. 2.5 GB total =).. I thought memory was a BIOS thing... unrelated to what OS you run..
[22:45] <Madroxprime> erk, sorry makes no sense...i got two stick: one gig and a 512
[22:45] <Pelo> __mikem, you ask in #compiz , possibly it's just one of the pluggin that causes the problem you can turn that one off and go about your business
[22:46] <Slart> m3gach33zy: ah.. sometimes it helps to talk about scrapping the old computer... makes it scared =)
[22:46] <ianoshorty> Slart, and yes, I would love not to have to revert to windows just to say i managed it, but its just gettin used to linux and the finding information etc.
[22:46] <Pelo> Madroxprime, 1 gig in bank 0 and 512 in bank 1 ?
[22:46] <__mikem> Pelo, the desktop effects don't have any configuration options. YOu can turn them on or off, but thats about all the control you have over them by default in ubuntu 7.10
[22:46] <m3gach33zy> Slart: lol
[22:46] <ianoshorty> Slart, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59628/ <my paste
[22:46] <Slart> Madroxprime: if you boot the memtester thingy.. does it find all the memory?
[22:46] <m3gach33zy> does anyone know what migrate documents and settings part of the install means?
[22:46] <Pelo> __mikem, in advance or custom , you might need to install an extra package
[22:46] <Madroxprime> Pelo: I can honestly say I don't remember what bank each is in, looked in the case then hit the irc,

[22:55] <Slart> Boriz: can't help you with wireless.. don't have any =).. but check the link ubotu sent you
[22:55] <way2go4me> dunno, i was used also to chat with mirc
[22:55] <way2go4me> this is sth different
[22:55] <Pelo> arrow_, in the ff menu , under help, the about option
[22:56] <Slart> way2go4me: if you really want to.. you can use mIRC in wine
[22:56] <Pelo> way2go4me, right now you are using xchatgnome probably which noone realy likes,  try regular xchat, look in add/remove , it's nicer
[22:56] <arrow_> thx Pelo

[22:57] <Ward1983> Itaku, are you back? (i just got back myself)
[22:57] <way2go4me> i know i could use several progr under wine
[22:57] <way2go4me> but i can't activate them
[22:57] <way2go4me> it's hopeless
[22:57] <Slart> Boriz: great.. you'll find that a lot of the common questions here are answered with just a short command to the bot that gives out a link.. saves us from typing the same stuff over and over =)
[22:57] <bastid_raZor> what program would i use to view .ICEauthority?
[22:57] <Afwas> way2go4me, simply click the exe installer of a program and ir will install under wine
[22:58] <Dex-Freudii> ICEauthority?? go to Alaska :P
[22:58] <Pelo> way2go4me, you won't be using the progs that are installed in your windows partitons, you will need to install them on wine, put the cds in or what ever you used to install these progs in windows, find the installer fileson then and right click , open with wine
[22:58] <Slart> way2go4me: what kind of programs do you miss? what are you looking for?
[22:58] <Ward1983> Itaku, im gonna go and boot in vista to see whats in the vista bootloader (with some prog whose name i dont recall atm)
[22:58] <Pelo> way2go4me, but you are better off looking for linux alternatives to the windows progams you are used to
[22:58] <way2go4me> don't run away, i look it up

[22:59] <Berto> Hi - Is there a good GUI app for managing cron?
[22:59] <artenius> Can anyone tell me how to keep ubuntu from overwriting my motd file. I went to the trouble of making a custom one earlier and now it's gone. hehe
[22:59] <Illbiteyournose> thank you ubotu and Pelo
[22:59] <way2go4me> eg i got a program nppgwrap.exe
[22:59] <Pelo> !thanks
[22:59] <ubotu> You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)
[22:59] <Berto> In all my years of linux, I never learned crontab nor do I want to... but I'd like to see what keeps waking me up at 730am
[23:00] <Slart> artenius: I doubt ubuntu killed your motd file.. probably some kind of ftp-server..
[23:00] <way2go4me> paul it makes sense...
[23:00] <Pelo> Berto, what happens at 730 &
[23:00] <Slart> Berto: crontab -L
[23:00] <artenius> Slart: I'm not running any servers, let alone FTP. All I did was reboot.
[23:00] <Dex-Freudii> I need some help with gParted
[23:00] <Berto> Pelo, my hard drive starts going bonkers :)
[23:00] <snypzz_> I want to open BBC and other media web sites with VLC
[23:00] <Dex-Freudii> if I resize a partition, will the UUID change as well???
[23:00] <snypzz_> not working...
[23:00] <Slart> artenius: what kind of motd do you have?
[23:00] <ianoshorty> Slart, well that got me a lot further after those two packages installed, the thing configures, now i get an error when i try and make it, should i pastebin the error?
[23:00] <Pelo> Berto, at about 730 my own comps checks for updates
[23:01] <Slart> ianoshorty: why not.. go ahead
[23:01] <Jack_Sparrow> Dex-Freudii, yes
[23:01] <Berto> Pelo, hmm where is the update checker at?
[23:01] <bastid_raZor> snypzz; do you use Firefox?
[23:01] <snypzz_> not working...yes
[23:01] <Pelo> Berto, crontab -l and sudo crontab -l will list cronjobs for both current user and root
[23:01] <Slart> Berto: I think it's in software sources.. in system, administration I think
[23:01] <__mikem> Which is better recomended at this moment based only on how well it works, adobe-flash, or Gnash?
[23:01] <artenius> Slart: well, I deleted everything in the motd except the top line, then I added an ascii text image and a warning menu system below that, with commands I made in bash
[23:01] <Dex-Freudii> snypzz_ System-Preferences- Preferred Apps (I don't know if it is like this in english)
[23:01] <way2go4me> Cannot open /home/oxfam/Desktop/nppgwrap.exe: No application suitable for automatic installation is available for handling this kind of file.
[23:01] <Berto> Slart, Pelo, yeah crontab -l gives nothing.  I'll check out the timing on updates
[23:01] <Pelo> Berto, menu > system > admin > sorfware sourcs, 4th tab I think , but you cna'T set the time
[23:02] <Scunizi> __mikem, gnash works fine..
[23:02] <Dex-Freudii> Jack_Sparrow: and how can I know the new UUID in order to update fstab?
[23:02] <Slart> __mikem: abode flash.. gnash is  a nice initiative.. but it's got a long way to go
[23:02] <Illbiteyournose> one more question, i have an external hard drive but everytime i want to use it i have to mount it manually, is there a way to have it automount when my computer starts?
[23:02] <__mikem> Okay
[23:02] <stefano> is there a Q&A channel for ubuntu development?
[23:02] <Pelo> Dex-Freudii, blkid in the terminal
[23:02] <artenius> Slart: the commands are still working, but the motd was overwritten when I rebooted
[23:02] <Berto> Pelo, interesting.. i wonder where that's set to check
[23:02] <Flyerfye> How do I format a hard drive that wont mount ( I assume it wont mount because it is NTFS or something )
[23:02] <Scunizi> Slart, __mikem isn't flash still broken in Gutsy?
[23:02] <Pelo> Illbiteyournose,  list it in fstab
[23:02] <ianoshorty> Slart, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59631/ is the link
[23:02] <snypzz_> found it got it thanks
[23:02] <Dex-Freudii> Pelo: thnx
[23:02] <way2go4me> hey, thx all
[23:02] <Illbiteyournose> pelo, will tha tmake it mount when it starts or when i log in?
[23:02] <Slart> artenius: what motd are you talking about? I've never seen a motd exept for a ftp server..
[23:02] <Flyerfye> Its an external hard drive btw
[23:03] <way2go4me> i'll rejoin you later
[23:03] <__mikem> Scunizi, it seems to work fine when Desktop Effects are disabled
[23:03] <Slart> ianoshorty: looking...
[23:03] <way2go4me> gotta go to sleep now
[23:03] <ianoshorty> Slart, Cheers
[23:03] <Pelo> Illbiteyournose, check the lines for the cdroms , you can probabaly make it an automated event
[23:03] <artenius> Slart: I'm talking about /etc/motd
[23:03] <Scunizi> __mikem, I know the installer was having issues a while back.. they've probably fixed it.
[23:03] <way2go4me> bbye
[23:03] <Berto> Pelo, awesome, i think it was installing security updates too, which was making noise.  i'm a light sleeper but want to sleep til 8 :)
[23:03] <Pelo> Berto, set it to check for 1 a week or someting
[23:03] <Illbiteyournose> pelo, k thank you very much, btw where is fstab?
[23:04] <Pelo> Illbiteyournose, /etc/fastab
[23:04] <Pelo> Illbiteyournose, /etc/fstab
[23:04] <Illbiteyournose> Pelo, thank you very much
[23:04] <Dex-Freudii> Pelo: blkid /dev/sda1
[23:04] <Dex-Freudii> but It won't print anything
[23:04] <Pelo> Dex-Freudii,  just blkid
[23:04] <Slart> artenius: ahhhh.. that motd.. now I understand.. or.. well.. I don't understand why ubuntu kills your own version.. perhaps it was updated.
[23:04] <snypzz_> Just type VLC in custom???
[23:04] <Flyerfye> Can I get help with my hard drive problem above
[23:05] <Pelo> snypzz_, in smallcaps
[23:05] <Slart> ianoshorty: odd error.. have you done this "sudo apt-get install build-essential" ?
[23:05] <Pelo> snypzz_, smallcase I mean , vlc , VLC
[23:05] <ianoshorty> Slart, indeed
[23:05] <Dex-Freudii> Pelo: either
[23:05] <snypzz_> thanks
[23:05] <ianoshorty> Slart, yes i have
[23:05] <Slart> ianoshorty: and the ./configure worked without any errors?
[23:05] <Dex-Freudii> Pelo: doesn't work
[23:05] <Pelo> Dex-Freudii,  linux is case sensitive,  blkid
[23:05] <artenius> Slart: oh well, I'll just made a new one and back it up as motd2 and overwrite ubuntu's everytime it overwrites mine.. hehe like a motd war!
[23:05] <Pelo> BLKID but in smallcase
[23:05] <ianoshorty> Slart, yeh, as far as i can tell - if i did it again, would it make any difference?
[23:06] <Dex-Freudii> Pelo: I know... blkid does exist but it won't print anything
[23:06] <Slart> ianoshorty: I don't think so.. but give it another go
[23:06] <Pelo> Dex-Freudii,  there is something very wrong then,  that would me you hve no partitons on your computer what so ever
[23:06] <ianoshorty> Slart, yeh definately configures fine :)
[23:07] <ianoshorty> Slart, still no difference to make
[23:07] <Dex-Freudii> Pelo: oh... I understand... I'm using LiveCD... I want to resize a partition in order to install Heron without deleting Feisty... so I have to update my Feisty /etc/fstab file
[23:08] <Pelo> Dex-Freudii, that sould not keep blkid from displaying partitons as far as I know
[23:08] <Slart>  ianoshorty: ah.. found the error.. you have to install gettext "sudo apt-get install gettext"
[23:09] <Pelo> Slart, what is ianoshorty compiling ?
[23:09] <Dex-Freudii> Pelo: why is the fstab using UUID in stead of using just /dev/sda1
[23:09] <ianoshorty> Slart, ok doing that - out of curiousity how do you know how to solve this problem? i honestly dont have a clue where to go - thats the biggest problem im having :P
[23:09] <sYn_0n3> sup room
[23:09] <foxray> hi can i install xubuntu and ubuntu on different paritions? xubuntu seems to be crashing on me and I'm wondering if its just gutsy gibbon
[23:10] <sYn_0n3> how are my fellow ubuntuers doing today
[23:10] <sYn_0n3> ITS FRIDAY!!!
[23:10] <DrIP> hi
[23:10] <Pelo> Dex-Freudii, it can use either or both,  uuid will keep partitions identified properly even if you add or remove hdds from your comp
[23:10] <Slart> ianoshorty: I googled the error-message =)  I googled for <  "/bin/sh: -o: not found" awn ubuntu  >
[23:10] <Dex-Freudii> Pelo, ok
[23:10] <Pelo> !uuid | Dex-Freudii
[23:10] <ubotu> Dex-Freudii: To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell: « sudo blkid » (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID)
[23:10] <Dex-Freudii> Pelo, so if I change fstab to use /dev/sda1 instead of UUID it will work properly right?
[23:10] <the_darkside_986> where is the gnome-screensaver SDK? I need to make screen savers in Gnome. i know C++, SDL, and opengl. does anyone have links, i can't find them anywhere?
[23:10] <SubOne> i tried to install the drivers for my ati card from and then unsinstalled and every which way from sunday i tried combinations and compiz runs very slowly. i still cant get compiz to speed up any, im not sure what im doing wrong. can someone assist?
[23:11] <Pelo> Dex-Freudii, sudo blkid apparently

[23:12] <Pelo> ianoshorty, just google awn ubuntu
[23:12] <inxane> DrIP: are you trying to enable DHCP serving?
[23:12] <Pelo> !awn
[23:12] <Slart> ianoshorty: that's whay #ubuntu is for..  =)

[23:13]  * Pelo curses ubotu 
[23:13] <inxane> DrIP:  what card is it?
[23:13] <DrIP> inxane: WMP11 v4
[23:13] <DrIP> linksys
[23:13] <Slart> strange that noone has made an avant factoid.. it's not an uncommon question
[23:13] <ianoshorty> Slart, same error im afraid :(
[23:14] <Slart> ianoshorty: hmm.. that's for trusting google...
[23:14] <Pelo> ianoshorty, I'm still wondering whhy you are building it
[23:14] <ianoshorty> Pelo, well, i couldnt find them, but regardless, id kinda like to work this out so that i know for the future how to get stuff like this working
[23:14] <inxane> DrIP:  have you looked into ndiswrapper?
[23:14] <ianoshorty> Slart, haha :P
[23:14] <Slart> ianoshorty: did you run configure too?
[23:14] <DrIP> inxane: yes...
[23:14] <gregbrady> Is there a way to filter internet access for kids in Ubuntu?
[23:14] <the_darkside_986> !gnome-screensaver
[23:14] <Pelo> ianoshorty,  there are simpler things to start larning to compile with
[23:15] <inxane> DrIP:  and it didn't work?
[23:15] <ianoshorty> Slart, no, didnt realise i needed to :P
[23:15] <m3gach33zy> can anyone help me with my ubuntu install?
[23:15] <DrIP> but how can I put that onto my server? lol n00b question... i know...
[23:15] <ianoshorty> Slart, sec, recompiling
[23:15] <DrIP> inxane: but how can I put that onto my server? lol n00b question... i know...
[23:15] <s-h-a-k-a> DrIP: What card is your card?
[23:15] <ianoshorty> Pelo, no doubt :P
[23:15] <s-h-a-k-a> What chipset?
[23:15] <Slart> ianoshorty: neither did I.. but according to another page I found on google.. it does make a difference
[23:15] <DrIP> s-h-a-k-a: linksys WMP11 v4
[23:15] <Pelo> ianoshorty, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=385981
[23:15] <inxane> DrIP:  you need to compile the source, and download the windows drivers for your card from linksys
[23:15] <sYn_0n3> hey guys everytime i login to gnome i get a message about the X keyboard configuration settings 2 choices either to use X or gnome settings..it happens everytime i login help
[23:16] <inxane> DrIP:  the ndiswrapper install doc explains how to do it
[23:16]  * Pelo likes to teach ppl how to compile using grisbi , only 2 dependencies 
[23:16]  * nickrud thinks pelo is lazy
[23:16] <inxane> DrIP:  also, check with synaptic, you should be able to download the binary direct
[23:16] <DrIP> inxane: ok, but how should i physically put it on my server... the source...
[23:16] <DrIP> (no inet)
[23:16] <the_darkside_986> how to screensavers work in Ubuntu? I need to learn how to write clones of popular malware-infested Windows screensavers so my "support customers" won't be trying to run them in Wine :P
[23:16] <s-h-a-k-a> DrIP: I need to know what chipset your card has
[23:16] <inxane> DrIP:  flash drive, burned disc, ext HD
[23:16]  * Pelo is shamed by nickrud and consider leaving the channel forever 
[23:16] <m3gach33zy> I just finnished installing ubuntu on my desktop.  Now when i select ubuntu it loads it up but than the screen gets blank
[23:17] <s-h-a-k-a> cause there is an easy way of doing it, if its a broadcom 43xx
[23:17] <ianoshorty> Pelo, Cheers :) il take a read over, though i may have just got it working - i think the make just worked without any errors - we see :)
[23:17] <inxane> s-h-a-k-a:  it isn't
[23:17] <Slart> the_darkside_986: well.. afaik there's a screensaver daemon that runs all the screensavers.. not sure if it works the same way as in windows
[23:17] <DrIP> inxane: is there an 'auto mount' because my USB controller is kinda weird on my server...
[23:17] <ianoshorty> Slart, right maked, we see, sec
[23:17] <Pelo> m3gach33zy, what video card ?
[23:17] <s-h-a-k-a> ok
[23:17] <m3gach33zy> xfx 8600
[23:17] <Ayabara> !compiz
[23:17] <ubotu> Compiz (compositing window manager) and XGL (X server architecture layered on top of OpenGL) - Howto at http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager - help in #compiz-fusion
[23:17] <inxane> DrIP:  plug in your usb drive, and type dmesg.
[23:17] <Pelo> m3gach33zy, waht company is that ?
[23:17] <s-h-a-k-a> inxane: What chipset?
[23:17] <m3gach33zy> nvida
[23:17] <DrIP> inxane: ok i'll do that
[23:17] <inxane> DrIP:  it should tell you the device node
[23:18] <inxane> s-h-a-k-a:  ndiswrapper is his solution, but he has another problem than just drivers
[23:18] <m3gach33zy> Pelo: nvidia
[23:18] <s-h-a-k-a> inxane: Why not just fwcutter?
[23:18] <DrIP> inxane: :D thanks! i know what to do after that thanks again :)
[23:18] <s-h-a-k-a> Its a lot easier
[23:18] <inxane> DrIP:  no problem... good luck
[23:18] <ianoshorty> Slart, haha still no luck, time to give up me thinks :P but thanks for all the help, il try and find some other way :)
[23:18] <inxane> s-h-a-k-a:  not really
[23:18] <the_darkside_986> So are Ubuntu screensavers simply executables that get killed when the daemon detects user input? If so, then I think I can easily write those.
[23:18] <Pelo> m3gach33zy, ok yuou will boot the recovery mode, and the type  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg , select the vesa driver when asked and leave everyting else on default unless you know better,   that will at least get yuou the desktp we can fix the driver from there
[23:18] <sander_m> Question: The aticonfig command generated a new ServerLayout section in my xorg.conf. The Screen line reads: `Screen 0 "aticonfig-Screen[0]" 0 0`. What's with the extra 0's on that line?
[23:19] <s-h-a-k-a> Hows that?
[23:19] <Slart> ianoshorty: ah.. well well.. you can always try to find a repository that has it.. it's much easier
[23:19] <inxane> s-h-a-k-a:  with ndiswrapper, you download the binary from synaptic, then the driver from linksys, unzip and type ndiswrapper -i <inf file>
[23:19] <m3gach33zy> Pelo: okay but how do i boot in recovery mode?
[23:19] <inxane> s-h-a-k-a:  then, ndiswrapper -m
[23:19] <Pelo> m3gach33zy, from the boot menu , second option
[23:19] <s-h-a-k-a> fwcutter isn't any harder tbh
[23:20] <inxane> s-h-a-k-a:  but it's the same number of steps ;) never said either one was easier
[23:20] <ianoshorty> Slart, thank you very much, much apprectiated
[23:20] <m3gach33zy> Pelo: okay its doing a bunch of stuff righ now
[23:20] <ianoshorty> Pelo, you too :)
[23:20] <Slart> ianoshorty: you're welcome
[23:20] <Pelo> ianoshorty, yw
[23:21] <Freon> hello atg
[23:21] <m3gach33zy> Pelo: i'm assuming i want to say yes to the autodetect video hardware?
[23:22] <Ward1983> how can i find out why i get a error 17?
[23:22] <sander_m> Another question: Quite a few programs (glxinfo, xdriinfo) give out a "display" variable. E.g, :0.0 or :1.0. What is that? And how does it relate to the stuff in my xorg,.conf file?
[23:22] <Pelo> m3gach33zy, you can try but I recommend you select the vesa driver for now
[23:22] <Ward1983> i have no clue what i did wrong its pointed to the right partition
[23:22] <inxane> Ward1983:  in grub?
[23:22] <Ward1983> inxane, yes sorry forgot to mention that
[23:22] <Freon>  @ sander its you actual display
[23:22] <Pelo> Ward1983, what is the dev of the partion ubuntu is on , and what is the (hd#'#) in grub %?
[23:23] <m3gach33zy> Pelo: okay i have a multi head set up... and it says here that for useres of multi head setups this option will configure only one of the heads.  further configuration will have to be done manually in the x server configureation file, /etc/x11/xorg.conf.
[23:23] <Ward1983> Pelo, just a sec im looking, livecd is slow :)
[23:24] <nickrud> sander_m: you can have more than one display running on the machine, or be connected to xservers on another machine. It's a way to identify them. Try apps->system->new login , and compare each
[23:24] <Pelo> m3gach33zy, that is correct , lets just get the one screen going for now
[23:25] <Pelo> Ward1983, you'll need to look in the /boot/grub/menu.lst on your hdd, not in the live cd one
[23:25] <Ward1983> Pelo, i know :)
[23:25] <joanki> can anyone recommend a good flash card program?
[23:25] <Pelo> Ward1983, I can'T tell from here ;-)
[23:26] <Ward1983> Pelo, lol im working on itm the CD makes me wait a lot
[23:26] <esteth> Is there a console app/command i can use that will simply tell me how many new emails there are in a pop or imap account?
[23:26] <m3gach33zy> Pelo: okay well there were a bunch of options and I just said yes to them all
[23:27] <Pelo> m3gach33zy, pretty much
[23:27] <Pelo> m3gach33zy, now restart the comp
[23:27] <Ward1983> Pelo, huh :s no grub dir
[23:27] <eekrano> php
[23:27] <Pelo> Ward1983, /boot/grub
[23:27] <Ward1983> Pelo, i suspect grub is installed on the wrong disk...
[23:28] <m3gach33zy> Pelo: and right now it says xserver-xorg postinst warning: overwriting possibly customised configuration file; backup in /etc/x11/xorg.conf.20080314162633 root@marc-desktop:~#
[23:28] <Ward1983> Pelo, i know but its not there lol
[23:28] <Pelo> Ward1983, that might be the case,  I recommend you get the supergrub cd and use that to fix the problem it will clreate a new /boot/grub/menu.lst file for you
[23:28] <Gunn> hey this is kinda off topic but does anyone know why when I boot vista it hangs at the screen before you log in, where the lil bar fills up
[23:28] <Ward1983> Pelo, ok never mind its there... i was on the damn CD again
[23:28] <Ward1983> the CD is giving me a hard time
[23:29] <Gunn> and it wont go past that, but the lil animation just keeps going and going even after its full
[23:29] <m3gach33zy> Pelo: so i guess i need a sudo command to keep going?
[23:29] <Pelo> m3gach33zy, yes let it , your currrent file is buggered that»'s why we are makeing a new one
[23:29] <Karlprof> Gunn, yes, that's /quite/ offtopic for #ubuntu =P
[23:29] <Karlprof> Gunn, maybe someone in ##windows would know?
[23:29] <Gunn> Yeah Karlprof I appologize but im just dumb found as to what to do
[23:29] <nickrud> esteth: mailcheck may do the trick for you
[23:29] <m3gach33zy> Pelo: well it wont let me continue until i get passed this postinst warning
[23:30] <tsmith0> hi, I'm new to ubuntu and not to linux. In other distributions, I could set the refresh rate using the file xorg.conf and setting appropriate VertRefresh and HorizSync ranges. Ubuntu completely ignores these and forces the monitor to use 60hz. the GUI screen resolution tool just reports false values...help?
[23:30] <Ward1983> Pelo, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59633/
[23:30] <Pelo> m3gach33zy, I'm not sure I understand the question, that whole process was about making a new xorg.conf file, just let it tell it yes or not or whatever it needs
[23:30] <Pelo> Ward1983, wthat is that ?
[23:30] <Ward1983> Pelo, root		(hd2,0)
[23:30] <esteth> nickrud: thanks, i'll take a look at that
[23:30] <Pelo> Ward1983, what is the devtree of the ubuntu partitons ?
[23:30] <Ward1983> Pelo, thats my menu.lst
[23:31] <Ward1983> Pelo, what is devtree?
[23:31] <Pelo> Ward1983, /dev/sda1
[23:31] <m3gach33zy> Pelo: okay well i was at a part to select the color depth in bits i said 24 and hit okay and then it said the whole postinst warning.  Now it says root@marc-desktop:~#
[23:31] <Ward1983> Pelo, how to check?
[23:31] <m3gach33zy> Pelo: it seems as though its waiting for a command
[23:31] <Pelo> Ward1983, how many hdd on your computer ?
[23:32] <Ward1983> Pelo, 4, ubuntu is on the 3rd
[23:32] <Pelo> m3gach33zy, restart the computer, you are done
[23:32] <noelferreira> can i put my computer starting ubuntu at a predefined hour?
[23:32] <m3gach33zy> Pelo:  oh xD lol
[23:32] <Pelo> Ward1983, what partiton on the 3rd hdd is ubuntu installed on ?
[23:32] <Ward1983> Pelo, that disk only has 2 partitions, a etx3 for ubuntu (the first) and a swap
[23:33] <Pelo> noelferreira, not sure I understand your question , you want your comp to restart and boot ubuntu ?
[23:33] <m3gach33zy> Pelo: i tried to start ubuntu and now nothing
[23:33] <ianoshorty> Slart, just to say, managed to get it working from the repos :)
[23:33] <ianoshorty> Slart, once again, thanks for the help :)
[23:33] <m3gach33zy> Pelo: i still have no display
[23:33] <Pelo> Ward1983, then that grub command should be correct , I donT' knwo thwat the issue might be
[23:33] <noelferreira> start automatically Pelo. i mean turn on
[23:33] <Slart> ianoshorty: ah.. good.. that's always easier
[23:33] <Pelo> Ward1983,  hold on I'll pull up the grub manual
[23:33] <Pelo> noelferreira,  not if it is turned off
[23:33] <Slart> ianoshorty: and you're welcome =)
[23:34] <sarthor> Hi, i am using shaper for on ubuntu for limiting my user bandwidth. what change i will need to make in my conf file to restrict my user for maximum 30kb uplink?? my conf file is here http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59634/
[23:34] <noelferreira> Pelo, has to be how?
[23:34] <Ward1983> Pelo, ok thqnx, that thing (the manual) is a bit over my head so much appreciated for helping
[23:34] <Pelo> noelferreira, you can' t program your cmpute to turn on it if is turned off,
[23:35] <Ward1983> noelferreira, that might be possible in your bios
[23:35] <Ward1983> Pelo, some bioses allow it
[23:35] <Pelo> Ward1983, might be that the partition is damaged
[23:35] <Ward1983> Pelo, small chance its a clean ubuntu install without errors
[23:35] <uberpsyx> hey guys, just built new rig and got an 8800GT, problem is i install the drivers and it starts into safe graphics mode and wont leave vesa, any idea how to sort it?
[23:35] <Pelo> Ward1983, might want to reorder your hdds to make second or first
[23:36] <Pelo> gotta go guys,  take care
[23:36] <Ward1983> Pelo, i used the "use full disk" option with the installer so surely the etx3 partition is located at the beginning of the disk and grub should be in the bootsector
[23:36] <alexman> how do you change the permissions, ownership, of a file?
[23:36] <th89> how can i disable NMI watchdog?
[23:36] <noelferreira> Pelo, how can i make that it restarts at a given hour?
[23:36] <alexman> or a folder?
[23:37] <th89> does anyone know how to disable the NMI_watchdog?
[23:37] <RoadHazard> alexman: sudo chmod owner filename
[23:37] <alexman> kk ty

[23:42] <steve176> Hi. Anyone know how to get electricsheep to run fullscreen on gutsy? I've tried --zoom 1 --root 1 and xscreensaver with no luck. thx
[23:42] <Ward1983> Cew27, open it in a text editor, edit it and save it?
[23:42] <Scunizi> Cew27, yep.. open it and you'll see notated an area that you shouldn't touch.. but if you're dual booting you can move the windows portion to the top of the list.
[23:42] <anteaya> Scunizi and Odd-ratioinale: thank you
[23:42] <pac1> Coolguy64537, Its a black art... Seriously, you need to check out stuff with google.  Try xorg.conf and the name of your laptop for starters.  Then just xorg.conf laptop.  Were you able to boot the live cd?
[23:42] <Coolguy64537> nope
[23:43] <asvedilox> ciao

[23:46] <ronandi> when I download the ubuntu iso, do I have to burn it, or can I just mount it?
[23:46] <Coolguy64537> so do i have to edit the xorg.conf
[23:46] <Coolguy64537> file
[23:46] <Ward1983> Coolguy64537, try adding "Option ' DisplayDevice" "dfp" ' to your xorg.conf
[23:46] <Slart> ronandi: well.. depends on what you want to do with it.. if you want to boot from it you'll ahve to burn it..
[23:47] <Slart> ronandi: if you just want a file or two from it.. mount it

[23:50] <wolfric> can someone help me with installing apache ? im new to to linux
[23:50] <Scunizi> wolfric, sudo apt-get install apache2
[23:50] <Slart> wolfric: installing is as easy as typing "sudo apt-get install apache" in a terminal.. configuring is a bit more work though
[23:50] <wolfric> ty
[23:51] <Slart> wolfric: well.. use apache2 for apache 2.X.. apache for the old v1.X apache
[23:51] <wolfric> at this stage ive got both but tried to search for apache to try find it in my file system and cant...  im sorry but where does linux put programs?
[23:51] <wolfric> doesnt show up in my applications drop down list so wasnt sure if i had installed it right or not
[23:52] <Scunizi> wolfric, you'll find the www directory in /var/www or /var/apache2/www
[23:52] <Afwas> wolfric see /opt/
[23:52] <Slart> wolfric: a little bit here.. a little bit there.. apache is probably run in the background.. start it using "sudo /etc/init.d/apache start"
[23:52] <ar0nic> guys im using an ati card and having no luck playing videos properly
[23:52] <wolfric> cool ty bud life saver... does the server start up in the background as a service or automaticly?
[23:53] <Scunizi> wolfric, there is no gui for apache.. you have to manually configure it.. unless I don't know about an available gui frontend.
[23:53] <Llewxam> hey guys. anyone know how to work with the ricoh media card reader? it's recognized but it won't load anything.
[23:53] <ar0nic> ive tried a multitude of options and im even trying to download the xserver-xorg-video-ati driver
[23:53] <ar0nic> any ati familiar peeps here?
[23:53] <Scunizi> Llewxam, try putting your medium in the adapter first then plugging it into the usb hub

[23:53] <Scunizi> xchat
[23:53] <Scunizi> irssi

[23:53] <Slart> irssi
[23:53] <Coolguy64537> mirc
[23:54] <Llewxam> Scunizi: it's integrated
[23:54] <Afwas> wolfric, there is an additional program called XAMPP control panel capable of starting Apache
