| ^u^ | ar0nic, are you sure the card isn't fscked | 00:00 |
| sarixe | i used to use ati... sucks a lot | 00:00 |
| sarixe | if money isn't an issue, go and get an nvidia card | 00:00 |
| sme^ | thanks sarixe :) will try again. Can't get it to do a thing at the moment. D/Ling a new copy and burnin that | 00:00 |
| m3gach33zy | can anyone help me set up ubuntu?? i cant install any programs or anything | 00:00 |
| sarixe | k | 00:00 |
| Dr_willis | There are affordable nvidia cards out there. :) | 00:01 |
| Dr_willis | not just $500+ beasts | 00:01 |
| sarixe | right, but i'm saying, maybe he doesn't want to even buy a new card at all | 00:01 |
| m3gach33zy | nvida xfx 8600gts for about 100 and it does the job | 00:01 |

| ar0nic | its a lappy | 00:02 |
| Gira^Isso | i expert ubuntu development | 00:02 |
| sarixe | oh, so you couldn't get an nvidia card... | 00:02 |

| ar0nic | or should i space it out to underneath the top line | 00:13 |
| rodrigth | yikes, didn't know that would happen | 00:13 |
| jimmygoon | m3gach33zy, then pastebin it and then copy the link into here. I have to be able to read it | 00:13 |
| ^u^ | ar0nic, if you were at the end of your page yes | 00:13 |
| ar0nic | i was at the end of page so i should space it or not | 00:13 |
| ^u^ | ar0nic, then save the file - close the file - and reboot with fingers crossed :) | 00:13 |
| ar0nic | i missed that last part | 00:14 |

| sander_m | Ha! Progress! fglrxinfo says that my display (:1.0) is running Mesa without DRI. But when I do `fglrxinfo -display :0.0` it's accellerated and runs the ATI driver. But it's the wrong display. I boot into :1.0 :-( How can I fix this? Please note that I am not interested in desktop effects but in playing FOSS games. If I can get desktop effects, fine. But I'll gladly sacrifice them to play 3D games. | 00:15 |
| ctothej | FWSquatch: yep, you got an ubuntu problem, lay the details on us... | 00:15 |
| jimmygoon | m3gach33zy, its a site where you can paste the error mesage, and then send me the link and I can read it! | 00:15 |
| ar0nic | i have no shutdown icon | 00:15 |
| ar0nic | what is it that we just did? | 00:16 |
| ^u^ | ar0nic, open a terminal and type sudo shutdown -r now and it will reboot | 00:16 |
| FWSquatch | OK, I was messing around with compiz and I accidentally sent my laptop into hibernate mode. When it returned, my wireless didn't work anymore. Subsequent reboots havent' fixed the problem. | 00:16 |
| ar0nic | hey when its loading it corrupts right before it shows the ubuntu splash | 00:16 |
| FWSquatch | It seems to know that the wireless card is in there, but I can't access it using the GUI or with ifconfig | 00:16 |
| ^u^ | ar0nic, tried a standard laptop workaround for vid issues to put it simply | 00:17 |
| m3gach33zy | jimmygoon: http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c228/m3gach33zy/Screenshot.png | 00:17 |
| Ballena | How do I prevent sshd from reseting my custom welcome message every time the system is restarted? | 00:17 |
| ^u^ | ar0nic, that's why we did what we just did | 00:17 |
| ar0nic | cool | 00:17 |
| ctothej | FWSquatch: so you think hibernate did something to the wireless settings? that sounds strange. have you done a forum search to see if it happened to anyone else? | 00:18 |
| m3gach33zy | jimmygoon: i get that for ever program that i try to install | 00:18 |
| jimmygoon | m3gach33zy, sorry, I misunderstood I thought there was a text error message. open a terminal | 00:18 |
| m3gach33zy | okay | 00:18 |
| ar0nic | but the only vid problem i have is playback of video | 00:18 |
| noelferreira | how do i had a reboot command to my crontab file? | 00:18 |
| rodrigth | anyone see my message? | 00:18 |
| jimmygoon | m3gach33zy, and type "sudo apt-get install thunderbird" and then _pastebin_ the result | 00:18 |
| ar0nic | IT WORKED | 00:18 |
| noelferreira | how do i add a reboot command to my crontab file? | 00:18 |
| ar0nic | YOU FUCKER | 00:18 |
| ar0nic | thank you | 00:18 |
| FWSquatch | yeah, I got a few hits but they were on Feisty and suggested ndiswrapper. It used to work fine without ndiswrapper | 00:18 |

| jimmygoon | m3gach33zy, so is it installing? | 00:19 |

| ianoshorty | ive tried http://hamzakc.wordpress.com/2006/10/16/dual-monitor-setup-ubuntu-ati/ <- | 00:20 |
| jimmygoon | m3gach33zy, what does it say above that | 00:20 |
| m3gach33zy | it just asked for my password and i typed it in | 00:20 |
| ctothej | FWSquatch: did you do anything in particular to get it working correctly when you installed gutsy? | 00:20 |
| jimmygoon | m3gach33zy, and then what? | 00:20 |
| m3gach33zy | jimmygoon: after that it just said m3gach33zy@marc-desktop:~$ | 00:20 |
| jimmygoon | m3gach33zy, you typed in "sudo apt-get install thunderbird" and it didn't do anything? | 00:20 |
| FWSquatch | No, I seem to remember it being very painless when I installed Gutsy. Wireless worked out of the box. | 00:21 |
| m3gach33zy | jimmygoon: it asked for my password and i put it in | 00:21 |
| ^u^ | ar0nic, I guess it's ok? | 00:21 |
| m3gach33zy | jimmygoon: after that i got nothing | 00:21 |
| jimmygoon | m3gach33zy, ?_? uh thats not good | 00:21 |

| ctothej | FWSquatch: yeah me too on my laptop. this may be a simple question, but does your laptop have a physical wireless on-off switch? | 00:21 |
| m3gach33zy | jimmygoon: yeah i know... this happened to me before on my laptop but someone knew what to do | 00:21 |
| ^u^ | ar0nic, bit hard from where you are :) | 00:21 |

| ar0nic | i mean vlc is playing wmv and avi's xvids and stuff | 00:22 |

| K-Yo | Hi, I'm having a graphic problem with gusty: My screen freezes with full screen games / flash online videos, the only thing I can do is ctrl+alt+backspace or wait (from 1 sec to 1 minute) until it unfreezes. | 00:30 |
| jimmygoon | m3gach33zy, much better. now try the "sudo apt-get install thunderbird" again | 00:30 |
| ^u^ | ar0nic, using what player? | 00:30 |
| crimsun | larryzli: did you chmod it executable? (Or you can use `bash alsa-info.sh') | 00:30 |
| sander_m | Solved! I don't know why this isn't plastered all over the internet: If you use the binary ATI driver, remove your XGL server (xserver-xgl). | 00:30 |

| FWSquatch | I put my Gutsy laptop into hibernate and when it came back, my wireless didnt' work anymore. I've rebooted several times and my laptop basically acts like the wireless interface doesn't exist anymore. | 00:31 |
| Flannel | m3gach33zy: do this: dpkg -l > ~/Desktop/dpkg.txt, then open the file on your desktop, and copy/paste | 00:31 |
| m3gach33zy | Flannel: yes that is all of it copied from top to bottom | 00:31 |
| ar0nic | the other video is an xvidmpeg-4 as well ^u^ | 00:31 |
| ^u^ | ar0nic, right click each of the files and select properties and see if they are diff | 00:31 |
| m3gach33zy | jimmygoon: i get the same thing as before with the sudo apt install thunderbird | 00:31 |
| ^u^ | k | 00:31 |
| ar0nic | both are samne... | 00:31 |
| jimmygoon | m3gach33zy, as in ... nothing? | 00:31 |

| Coolguy64537 | i get a grey screen when trying to boot to the live cd, after the load screen can anyone help | 00:31 |
| ^u^ | ar0nic, will the first play again? | 00:31 |
| Scunizi | crshman, I had something similar.. I had to change the password to something else.. no spaces.. lower case.. then later I could change it back and it worked.. try logging in with a new one first. | 00:31 |

| ^u^ | mark[oz], I appreciate the effort but why tell me about cedega? | 00:35 |
| EJ | Scunizi, no it was an unofficial site. It shows all the updates in one overview without refreshing the page. It's done with some cool ajax featues | 00:35 |
| Flannel | lastelement0: As far as I know, diablo 2 works fine with wine. You could use wine instead (and ditch the $5) and ask in #winehq | 00:35 |

| FWSquatch | thanks for the help ctothej. I'm gonna have to take off. But that looks like my exact problem! | 00:36 |
| ctothej | FWSquatch: no problem, good luck | 00:37 |
| M1dn1ght | I posted my problems on some forums, and think we've got it narrowed down to my video card | 00:37 |

| ar0nic | ^u^ it gives the thumbnail for the file that isnt working, however all other videos i copied work fine | 00:38 |

| M1dn1ght | sorry matey - didn't mean to spam. | 00:38 |
| ^u^ | ar0nic, what can I say - all but one file work - maybe copying that file over didn't work right | 00:39 |
| M1dn1ght | Flannel - have tried already thanks mate. No joy there either | 00:39 |
| soundray | Coolguy64537: have you tried the alternate CD? | 00:39 |
| soundray | !alternate | Coolguy64537, M1dn1ght | 00:39 |
| ubotu | Coolguy64537, M1dn1ght: 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 | 00:39 |
| ar0nic | via network | 00:39 |
| Coolguy64537 | soundray: no whats different | 00:39 |
| julien_ | bye | 00:39 |
| Flannel | M1dn1ght: What happens with the alternate CD? | 00:39 |
| ar0nic | maybe so | 00:39 |
| soundray | Coolguy64537: ^^ | 00:39 |
| Coolguy64537 | !minimal | 00:40 |
| 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 | 00:40 |
| DieseL`nix | avant-window-navigator: error while loading shared libraries: libawn.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory | 00:40 |
| Coolguy64537 | ok thanks | 00:40 |
| DieseL`nix | thats what i'm getting when trying to run awn | 00:40 |
| soundray | Coolguy64537: is there still hard disk activity when it shows the grey screen? | 00:40 |
| M1dn1ght | I'm trying to remember exact sequence...but I think after specifying the install type (txt only) it says something like "booting kernal" and just freezes. Have left it for ages and nothing. Have to force-switchoff the computer | 00:40 |
| M1dn1ght | I will try this minimal cd | 00:41 |
| Flannel | M1dn1ght: Sounds like a bad burn. Did you verify the MD5 and the iso and stuff? Burn at 4x? | 00:41 |
| Coolguy64537 | ok so how hard is the text based | 00:41 |
| Flannel | M1dn1ght: Minimal CD is alternate CD. | 00:41 |
| Scunizi | Coolguy64537, easy | 00:41 |
| Coolguy64537 | how easy....... | 00:41 |
| soundray | Coolguy64537: more options, but not more difficult | 00:41 |
| Flannel | Coolguy64537: the text based installer? not very. It asks the exact same questions, and nothing else. You just don't use a mouse. | 00:41 |
| M1dn1ght | Yep and yep. There may be a problem with my burner, but I can't find it | 00:41 |
| ^u^ | minimal cd is net install | 00:41 |
| DieseL`nix | any ideas anyone? | 00:42 |
| felipe_ | how do I remove that default compiz effect in ubuntu in which the top part of the window's decoration is semi transparent when not in focus? | 00:42 |
| Flannel | M1dn1ght: there are methods of installation sans CD. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation might give you some suggestions | 00:42 |
| Coolguy64537 | ok i see | 00:42 |
| Scunizi | DieseL`nix, I never heard if you installed from the repo's or other sources | 00:42 |
| M1dn1ght | I've tried ubuntu, knoppix, redhat, fedora, can't remember the rest - there's always a similar problem - freezes up at some point, generally after I specify my install type | 00:42 |
| Coolguy64537 | just follow instructions on screen | 00:42 |
| M1dn1ght | Thanks flanne - will check out that URL | 00:42 |
| soundray | Coolguy64537: also see the install help -- private message coming | 00:43 |
| kestir | Burn at 4x? | 00:43 |
| Scunizi | M1dn1ght, stick with 32 bit | 00:43 |

| soundray | !install > Coolguy64537 | 00:43 |
| M1dn1ght | Thanks for the help guys - will let you know how I go | 00:43 |
| Flannel | kestir: no, its unfortunately after that, where burner mfcs think faster is better, even at the sake of integrity | 00:43 |
| larryzli | crimsun: you there? | 00:43 |
| Coolguy64537 | thanks | 00:43 |
| kestir | Flannel: technology has progressed beyond that "burn data at 4x" thinking | 00:44 |
| kestir | Flannel: that's archaic...when burners were just getting to 16x.... | 00:44 |
| Flannel | kestir: But its still necessary to burn properly. | 00:44 |
| DieseL`nix | avant-window-navigator: error while loading shared libraries: libawn.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory <<-- any ideas? | 00:44 |

| Scunizi | kestir, I beg to differ.. | 00:44 |
| ^u^ | kestir, do you do the md5 check on the disks you burn? | 00:44 |
| soundray | kestir, Flannel: please discuss in #ubuntu-offtopic | 00:44 |

| gregbrady | Where can one find a good online resource for setting up one of my machines as a proxy server? | 00:49 |
| arrow | whats your problem kurzweilfreak | 00:49 |
| Scunizi | gregbrady, you could ask in #ubuntu-server.. they might have some insight. | 00:49 |
| AgentHeX | ares-mars: i can understand. try lsmod to find what sound card driver you're using and then use "rmmod <driver>" followed by "modprobe <driver>" to reload it. | 00:49 |
| Flannel | gregbrady: dansguardian | 00:50 |
| kurzweilfreak | after finally fighting with the partitioning and getting Ubuntu installed, my GRUB tries to access the wrong drive as root | 00:50 |
| AgentHeX | ares-mars: i have to do that with my iwl4965 wireless chip, and i hope it works for your sound card. | 00:50 |
| gregbrady | Scunizi, yet another good suggestion, thanks. | 00:50 |
| Scunizi | arrow, you should be able to right mouse click on the file and extract | 00:50 |
| soundray | AgentHeX: you can author DVDs with free software, but I haven't done it so can't advise -- ask the channel again pls | 00:50 |
| kurzweilfreak | so I manually edit the command and get it to start loading Ubuntu | 00:50 |
| DieseL`nix | anyone here recently installed awn on gutsy and got it working? i've got some serious issue here | 00:50 |
| Scunizi | gregbrady, np | 00:50 |
| larryzli | ^u^: how would i go about enabling it? | 00:50 |
| kurzweilfreak | but eventually it tells me that "Alert! /dev/hda1 does not exist!" | 00:50 |
| kurzweilfreak | and drops me to a shell | 00:50 |
| arrow | Scunizi, it says "archive type not supported: | 00:50 |
| AgentHeX | can someone recommend a program for authoring DVD video discs? | 00:50 |
| arrow | Scunizi, it says "archive type not supported" | 00:50 |
| kurzweilfreak | I have Ubuntu installed onto a USB harddrive | 00:50 |
| Scunizi | arrow, what kind of extension is on the archive | 00:50 |
| xTheGoat121x | My upper gnome-panel freezes until I change my theme, then it works perfectly. | 00:51 |
| Flannel | kurzweilfreak: What version of Ubuntu are you using? | 00:51 |
| Dr_willis | kurzweilfreak: yep. theres some issues with booting ubuntu off a usb drive. that pendrivelinux site may have some tips. I recall it needing a little work at times. | 00:51 |

| Scunizi | arrow.. good.. sometimes it pays to load synaptic and search for the word.. | 01:00 |
| kurzweilfreak | i just don't get it, I had no problem installing to a USB drive just a few months ago | 01:01 |
| arrow | Scunizi, I couldn't even think of what to install till you said what extension is it, then I was like... duh | 01:01 |
| kurzweilfreak | and it booted fine, as long as the drive was plugged in | 01:01 |
| Scunizi | arrow :) | 01:01 |

| cafuego | Is there a way of preventing panel to span multiple screens when running xinerama? | 01:02 |

| kurzweilfreak | lemme check that | 01:03 |
| kurzweilfreak | thanks | 01:03 |
| larryzli | ^u^: i think i found it | 01:03 |

| lilg111111 | Scunizi, i dont use gmail, can gmail get your yahoo emails | 01:04 |

| xTheGoat121x | Does xubuntu use GTK? | 01:11 |
| Scunizi | xTheGoat121x, good question.. not sure but it will run gnome programs so I think so.. | 01:12 |
| linxeh | xTheGoat121x: it can do | 01:12 |
| islan | xTheGoat121x, I do not believe it comes standard but can be installed ... but that's just my surmising | 01:12 |
| Adrenalin` | Hi, any ideea how can I install mysql5.1-server using apt-get ? apt-cache search can't find mysql5.1-server | 01:12 |
| ^u^ | xTheGoat121x, yep | 01:12 |
| larryzli | ^u^: ended with the user sending back his computer to the company and it was a hardware error | 01:12 |
| islan | Adrenalin`, do apt-cache search mysql | 01:12 |
| linxeh | xTheGoat121x: the window manager / environment has little to do with X or anything else - you can run what you want and in whichever combinations | 01:12 |
| ^u^ | larryzli, but it gave the steps to get sound working' | 01:12 |
| xTheGoat121x | Scunizi, linxeh, ^u^, thanks. My gnome-panel is getting to the point where I think I want to try something other than Gnome. | 01:13 |
| Dr_willis | there used to be issues ages ago with running gnome and kde apps together.. but not so much a problem these days | 01:13 |
| Adrenalin` | islan already did, there is no 5.1 | 01:13 |
| kurzweilfreak | how does GRUB reference different drives? | 01:13 |
| BrassKazoo | Hey all.. I'm using xubuntu, and I'm wondering how I can get tomboy to appear on the menu like in gnome - clicking opens the menu of notes | 01:13 |
| kurzweilfreak | sdx#, or hdx#? | 01:13 |
| felipe_ | Scunizi: why thank you, but I've known about it for a while, and I can't find anything to modify what I'm talking about | 01:13 |
| linxeh | xTheGoat121x: I tried them all over many years (10+), and I've settled on KDE. its flipping ugly, but it lets you do what you want to do | 01:13 |
| islan | Adrenalin`, ah, looking for a specific version .. know if there even is a Linux package for it yet? | 01:13 |
| Scunizi | Adrenalin`, a search of synaptic turns up mysql 5.0 there isn't a 5.1 in the repos | 01:13 |
| ^u^ | xTheGoat121x, made a .gtkrc-2.0 file today to change the background colour of xubuntus' panels | 01:13 |
| Dr_willis | Hmm. I dont find kde ugly.. | 01:14 |
| xTheGoat121x | ^u^, awesome. | 01:14 |
| BrassKazoo | kurzweilfreak, I think it can use UUIDs | 01:14 |
| kurzweilfreak | define UUID | 01:14 |
| Flannel | !uuid | 01:14 |
| ubotu | 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) | 01:14 |
| linxeh | Dr_willis: from a UI perspective kde has some really nasty spacing and "clutter" - people have worked for years on best practices for ui designs and KDE breaks most of them | 01:14 |
| ^u^ | xTheGoat121x, just to confirm the bit about xubuntu using gtk | 01:14 |
| Adrenalin` | So how can I now install mysql 5.1 ? I must compile from sources, right ? How about dependencies ? Omg | 01:14 |
| xTheGoat121x | linxeh, LoL Honestly, I'm hesitant to go with KDE, I've had bad experiences with it | 01:14 |
| islan | Adrenalin`, I don't think there is a mysql 5.1 for linux yet | 01:15 |
| BrassKazoo | kurzweilfreak, Its the block device ID i think.. | 01:15 |
| kurzweilfreak | hard to run a command when I can't get to an actual BASH shell :( | 01:15 |
| linxeh | Dr_willis: imo Gnome and OSX get it right, but Gnome is close to functionless | 01:15 |
| xTheGoat121x | ^u^, I appreciate it. | 01:15 |
| kurzweilfreak | i just need to know the format | 01:15 |
| jetscreamer | unique universal identifier... or universal unique | 01:15 |
| Flannel | kurzweilfreak: They're long strings of hex | 01:15 |
| kurzweilfreak | screw it, i'm gonna boot to a Live | 01:15 |
| jetscreamer | ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid btw | 01:15 |
| BrassKazoo | kurzweilfreak, Run that command - sudo blkid | 01:16 |
| soundray | Adrenalin`: why do you want 5.1 rather than 5.0? | 01:16 |
| Scunizi | felipe_, you might try in #ubuntu-effects.. I just looked in ccsm and couldn't find anything either.. | 01:16 |
| jetscreamer | not hex | 01:16 |
| linxeh | xTheGoat121x: xubuntu is nice - just make sure you choose your apps carefully and don;t get tied to one system. I install all of gnome, kde and xfce on my machines so that I don't get stuck | 01:16 |
| Dr_willis | linxeh: its all about taste i guess.. I miss the functions i can do in kde.. as far as looks i dont really notice. | 01:16 |
| * islan is stuck with xfce on his low-performance laptop, but that's okay | 01:16 | |
| linxeh | Dr_willis: yeah I miss the richness of KDE :) | 01:16 |
| Dr_willis | linxeh: ive noticed that every company make all these claims and advances in gui design and hype about their work.. then they toss it out the window in the next release... | 01:16 |
| jetscreamer | islan: check out icewm and fluxbox also | 01:16 |
| Dr_willis | linxeh: i recall APple making all these claims about their gui research with OS-9.. and poof they tossed it. Oh well.. | 01:17 |
| xTheGoat121x | linxeh, I'd feel more comfortable staying with gnome (it's what I'm familiar with) but I just don't know how to correct my issues with it w/o reinstalling. And I can't afford the time to do that right now. | 01:17 |
| Dr_willis | This is LInux - i WILL and can build my own! I will never go hungry for Eyecandy again! | 01:17 |
| islan | jetscreamer, I think I tried to try fluxbox once ... can't remember what happened, maybe my system just got bogged in trying to switch over | 01:17 |
| jetscreamer | flux is low resource but very pretty | 01:17 |
| jetscreamer | i don't use it though... | 01:18 |

| kurzweilfreak | running sudo blkid gives me "floating point exception (core dumped)" | 01:19 |
| dillizar | i just remove one of my panels | 01:19 |
| grumbel | linxeh: will that take care of LVM? | 01:19 |
| islan | jetscreamer, well all I have is a laptop 128 MB RAM, 3gig HD, and a graphics card that fits in my palm | 01:19 |
| kanuha | I installed the latest beat of firefox in my home directory. How can I get it to see the plugins? | 01:19 |
| dillizar | how can i resore it | 01:19 |
| linxeh | grumbel: I would hope so :) you can check in the logs | 01:19 |
| xTheGoat121x | linxeh, well... it's weird. Every time I boot my laptop, one of my gnome-panels freezes... but if I change the theme, it unfreezes. And I can change back to my original theme. | 01:20 |
| Flannel | grumbel: To remove the disk from a volume group? pvremove, I believe. | 01:20 |
| jetscreamer | islan: icewm would run fine on that.. but i just happen to like icewm.... xfce is good | 01:20 |
| xTheGoat121x | linxeh, changing the theme doesn't change anything. It freezes regardless of what theme I boot with. | 01:20 |

| mark[oz] | stupid keyboard | 01:20 |
| grumbel | Flannel: no, I want to "eject the drive" aka "unplug the cable" | 01:20 |
| soundray | dillizar: when it's gone, it's gone. You have to set it up from scratch. Right-click on another panel and select New Panel | 01:21 |
| FWSquatch | I can't get my wireless working in Gutsy anymore. It worked fine out of the box for months, but today I put it in hibernate and when it came back up the wireless option was gone from my Networking menu. Reboots have not brought it back. | 01:21 |
| ^u^ | dillizar, right click the remaining panel and select add new panel | 01:21 |
| lilg111111 | anybody know of a codec package that contains all the codecs i need to streaming video etc | 01:21 |
| * jetscreamer lols@reboots and goes away | 01:21 | |
| Flannel | grumbel: the LVM drive, right? You need to remove it from your volume group first. | 01:21 |
| kanuha | what directory is firefox installed to by default on Ubuntu? | 01:21 |
| Dr_willis | lilg111111: i thoght most codec packs were for the playback. not the streming. vlc can stream in different ways. | 01:21 |
| dillizar | dude where right click | 01:22 |
| Flannel | kanuha: /usr/bin/firefox | 01:22 |
| islan | kanuha, try the comman: whereis firefox | 01:22 |
| grumbel | Flannel: yes its a LVM drive. Just a normal USB HD and I want to plug it in, do stuff, plug it out | 01:22 |
| islan | command* | 01:22 |
| soundray | dillizar: read carefully ^^ | 01:22 |
| ^u^ | dillizar, anywhere on the panel | 01:22 |
| dillizar | it doesnt work | 01:22 |
| kanuha | Flannel, islan thx | 01:23 |
| islan | I love the whereis command... | 01:23 |

| [R] | Lifeisfunny: cache is irrelevent... as for programs, don't run so many | 02:24 |
| mneptok | robby: ls -l /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/libjavaplugin.so | 02:24 |
| robby | how do i unable gcj | 02:24 |
| robby | or remove gcj | 02:24 |
| blackjack | where it find to config the file that is automount configure ? | 02:24 |
| metbsd | mneptok: can claws convert for multiple users? | 02:24 |
| soundray | Lifeisfunny: would you rather have your memory lying around unused? | 02:24 |
| jrib | robby: remove the gcjwebplugin package | 02:24 |
| metbsd | mneptok: i need to convert multiple mboxes for 300 users | 02:24 |
| Lifeisfunny | [R], alright, thanks | 02:24 |
| mneptok | metbsd: it's not an autmoated process. you import mboxen to Claws, and Claws stores as maildir | 02:24 |
| Lifeisfunny | soundray, not really | 02:25 |
| soldats | jrib: honestly ive had java installed many times with the sun-java6-jre plugin and the ubotu answer is very clear :) | 02:25 |
| mneptok | metbsd: you could prolly script it, or reuse their libs | 02:25 |
| Lifeisfunny | you guys are making me look silly | 02:25 |
| robby | how dose one remove gcj plugin? | 02:25 |
| jrib | soldats: you need sun-java6-plugin for the plugin | 02:25 |
| Lifeisfunny | I was just wondering | 02:25 |
| jrib | robby: I just told you | 02:25 |
| robby | i did that lol | 02:25 |
| mneptok | robby: ls -l /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/libjavaplugin.so | 02:25 |
| metbsd | actually thunderbird can do the same | 02:25 |
| robby | Processing triggers for libc6 ... | 02:25 |
| robby | ldconfig deferred processing now taking place | 02:25 |
| robby | robby@robby-desktop:~$ ls -l /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/libjavaplugin.so | 02:25 |
| robby | lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 39 2008-03-14 22:09 /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/libjavaplugin.so -> /etc/alternatives/firefox-javaplugin.so | 02:25 |
| Lifeisfunny | thanks | 02:26 |
| adrock358 | I'm trying to install dual boot of vista and ubuntu. all I have now is ubuntu, but I want to erase ubuntu and then install vista, then ubuntu. And my partitions are setup for linux. I can't get my partitions back for windows, because the CD that came with my hard drive that reformats the partitions isn't working. How can I format my HD so I can install Vista? | 02:26 |
| robby | did i do that right? | 02:26 |
| PMantis | Is there a command I can run to determine what kernel version will load upon reboot? | 02:26 |
| mneptok | robby: yes, and Java is installed | 02:26 |
| soldats | jrib: he was also told to install that as well a few pages ago | 02:26 |
| Jangari | I'm having some serious trouble mounting an sd card, it keeps crashing nautilus, anyone know a way to force a dump? | 02:26 |
| mneptok | robby: have you acutally used the Java test page to test the plugin? | 02:26 |
| robby | ok let me restart firefox | 02:27 |
| robby | no i havent lol | 02:27 |
| c0da | hey, is there any way to adjust webcam settings? | 02:27 |
| mneptok | robby: uhhh ... that would be the first thing you'd do. | 02:27 |
| robby | what is the url of the test page | 02:27 |
| adrock358 | Any way to help a brother out? I'm sure this is a real simple solution. I just don't know which program to use to reformat my hd. | 02:28 |
| jscinoz | hmm, so the wii can boot linux now.. i wonder if the PPC version of ubuntu will work... | 02:28 |
| mneptok | robby: http://www.java.com/en/download/help/testvm.xml | 02:28 |
| soundray | Jangari: have you tried turning off icon preview? | 02:28 |
| mneptok | adrock358: gparted | 02:28 |
| adrock358 | mneptok. thanks bro. is that for linux or dos? | 02:28 |
| Jack_Sparrow | adrock358, gparted | 02:28 |
| soldats | !dualboot > adrock358 | 02:29 |
| mneptok | adrock358: i don't do DOS. this is 2008. | 02:29 |
| soundray | PMantis: can you give more background to that? | 02:29 |
| Jack_Sparrow | adrock358, actually gparted has a livecd that I highly recommend | 02:29 |
| robby | FAIL no jave el work-o | 02:30 |
| mneptok | robby: did you use Automatix? | 02:30 |
| robby | use what? | 02:30 |
| PMantis | soundray: If I upgrade my kernel, and I have a module compiled from source, I need to update the /usr/src/linux symlink so I can compile the module for the NEW kernel, not the one running before I reboot. | 02:30 |
| adrock358 | jack_sparrow. great. thanks man. yeah, all I want to do is load vista first, then install ubuntu. Thanks again. | 02:30 |
| adrock358 | You guys have been helpful as always. | 02:30 |
| Jack_Sparrow | adrock358, Use the live cd make an ntfs for windows and at least two ext3 for ubuntu plus a swap | 02:31 |
| mneptok | robby: *IF* you are using a standard Ubuntu install, and *IF* you ran "sudo apt-get install sun-java6-plugin" that test WILL work. so which part does not apply to you? | 02:31 |
| slenentine | robby: i'm sorry to say this, but you're obviously doing something wrong because everyone else manages just fine with the same resources that you're using. | 02:31 |
| robby | im geting | 02:31 |
| metbsd | mb2md does not conbine mailbox in the right structure | 02:31 |
| Jack_Sparrow | adrock358, remember limit of 4 partitions without using extended | 02:31 |
| robby | This game cannot be played using your current settings. Please, try the following: | 02:31 |
| robby | * Check to make sure that java is enabled in your browser. (learn more) | 02:31 |

| adrock358 | Jack_Sparrow. will do. got it. thanks so much man | 02:32 |
| crshman | hi all, i just installed a new video card and now X says that there are no screens found....how do i tell ubuntu to update the config to use the new card? | 02:32 |
| jrib | !xconfig > crshman (read the private message from ubotu) | 02:32 |
| mneptok | crshman: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 02:32 |

| crshman | awesome thnx | 02:32 |
| adrock358 | Jack_Sparrow have a good night man. | 02:32 |
| slenentine | robby: do you have java enabled in firefox > edit > preferences > content ? | 02:32 |
| mneptok | robby: that is NOT the Java test page! | 02:32 |
| robby | the test page worked but said i wasnt using the 1.6.0 | 02:33 |
| Jack_Sparrow | adrock358, you too | 02:33 |
| soundray | PMantis: if you installed the kernel image through apt, it should have updated the grub menu, with the first kernel line corresponding to the new kernel. So 'grep ^kernel /boot/grub/menu.lst | head -n 1' should tell you. | 02:33 |
| mneptok | robby: then Java is installed, and this game site is crap. | 02:33 |
| robby | so how do i config java agin? | 02:33 |
| mneptok | robby: you don't | 02:33 |
| slenentine | ugh | 02:33 |
| robby | no cose i have 3 difrent java installed lol | 02:34 |
| mneptok | robby: you write to the webmaster of the game site and say "please stop requyiring bleeding edge Java for basic functionality" | 02:34 |

| Shoopuf | Does anyone else have this problem? Every time I drag the "Speaker" volume meter up and down it is extremely laggy. The meter jumps around to places that my mouse is not, one channel mutes itself for absolutely no reason, the channels unlink for no reason, the volume meter lags when I drag it. Is this normal Ubuntu behavior? | 02:41 |
| linxeh | xphisher: sudo mount /dev/cdrom | 02:41 |

| linxeh | xphisher: thats not an error, its a worning | 02:42 |
| jrib | hanophix33: metacity is the default window manager (no effects). Metacity themes are for your window borders. GTK themes are for the controls (buttons, drag bars, etc.). Compiz is the window manager with effects (wobbly windows, etc.) that you enable in your Appearance menu item | 02:42 |
| wookienz | hi guys, i have apt-get install unrar and rar but for the life of me i cant extract or make any rar files through the desktop UI. ideas? | 02:43 |
| Jack_Sparrow | xphisher, I seem to remember something about that particular cd.. needed root or something odd.. | 02:43 |

| looksie | be careful | 03:02 |
| fismoll8 | hey guys...my computer froze, and I was forced to use the reset button (ctrl-sysrq "busier backwards") didn't work. However, when I rebooted my computer it was unable to recognize the partition that ubuntu on. The os did not load. After powering off the circuits inside my computer and then powering them on again, my computer worked fine. However, every now and then when I restart I get the same problem. When I run sudo fsck, it comes back clean. Wh | 03:02 |
| Karsyth | looksie, is that what i would type? or are you talking to someone else | 03:02 |
| stefano_ | jrib, isnt the motu channel packagin oriented? i've got some specific questions about gnome application development | 03:03 |
| jimmygoon | How do I get to have the advanced compiz settings - the custom one appear in the appearance panel? I install ccsm yet it stil doesn't show up | 03:03 |
| andguent | Karsyth: looksie was giving an example of advanced find usage, but that one is somewhat dangerous, at least to wine files :) | 03:04 |
| jrib | stefano_: well gnome application development, you are better off in a gnome channel in my opinion (on GIMPNet). There's also #ubuntu-devel | 03:04 |
| Karsyth | andguent: i havent run the command yet. i basically want to remove all folders / files associated with tine because synaptic and add / remove didnt get rid of them all | 03:04 |
| traiani | can anyone help get my wireless working? I've followed the thread here and it still doesn't work: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=190177 | 03:04 |
| Karsyth | andguent: i can still run wine commands but it wasnt properly installed, and i think until i completely remove it i will never get it properly installed | 03:04 |
| stefano_ | jrib, thanks, i'll go to gimpnet | 03:05 |
| andguent | Karsyth: did you try 'sudo apt-get purge wine' already? | 03:05 |
| jimmygoon | !ccsm | 03:05 |
| 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 | 03:05 |
| Karsyth | andguent: ill try real quick | 03:06 |
| Karsyth | Package wine is not installed, so not removed | 03:06 |
| jimmygoon | How does ubuntu do the autocomplete when I <Tab> in gnome-terminal... it does package names, executable's names...? | 03:06 |
| wookienz | I have mounted a couple of smb shares on my desktop... how can i navigate them from the terminal? | 03:06 |
| Karsyth | andguent: Package wine is not installed, so not removed | 03:06 |
| linxeh | wookienz: maybe /media ? | 03:07 |
| andguent | Karsyth: Where are you finding wine files? in your home directory or binary executables? | 03:07 |
| stefano_ | jimmygoon, it looks up all directories in which files can be executed by you (this would be /usr/bin, /bin, /usr/local/bin and so on) | 03:07 |
| Karsyth | andguent: i think maybe both | 03:07 |
| jimmygoon | stefano_, is it a feature of gnome-terminal specifically? | 03:08 |
| stefano_ | jimmygoon, no, its a feature of bash. type in "man bash" to learn more about what it ca do | 03:08 |
| MrJoey | Is there a minimalistic Ubuntu derivative available that has a small image size (e.g. 100MB or less)? | 03:08 |
| jimmygoon | thanks! | 03:08 |
| andguent | Karsyth: odd, I personally wouldn't delete anything, just move it all to /tmp (that directory will get wiped out when you shut down) | 03:08 |
| jimmygoon | MrJoey, DSL: Damn Small Linux --- debian based... not ubuntu, but very customizable and tons of tutorials | 03:08 |
| wookienz | linxeh: nope..thanks though | 03:08 |
| IOU | does anyone find the 2.6.24-12 kernel slower than the 2.6.24-11 ? | 03:08 |
| jimmygoon | IOU, the screen refresh seems awful IMO | 03:08 |
| Karsyth | andguent: does anything here look important to you? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59644/ | 03:09 |
| === Ash908 is now known as Ashfire908 | ||
| linxeh | wookienz: type mount | 03:09 |
| IOU | jimmygoon: yeah i have noticed switching tabs in firefox and xchat and a few other progs really sluggish | 03:09 |
| kousotu | is there another driver for USB that I shoould install? | 03:09 |
| BenniBoya | clear | 03:09 |
| MrJoey | "MrJoey, DSL: Damn Small Linux --- debian based... not ubuntu, but very customizable and tons of tutorials" ==> Yeah, I was thinking of using that, but I'm somewhat concerned about compatibility | 03:09 |
| jimmygoon | IOI yeah, like I was typing the in terminal and alt+tab and the whole thing like froze then caught up... weird stuffs | 03:10 |
| MrJoey | I could use DSL-N, though, but it's still not as mainstrea | 03:10 |
| BenniBoya | hey, i installed something with synaptic and there are no icons to open it | 03:10 |
| MrJoey | m* | 03:10 |
| xb3rtx | why does me screen resolution let me change the settings and apply them, but everytime i look back at the settings i see the previous settings that i changed | 03:10 |
| jimmygoon | IOU, of course, I'm in hardy | 03:10 |
| IOU | same | 03:10 |
| jimmygoon | IOU, yeah. I hope it gets fixed soon. I think its more than just our imaginations | 03:10 |
| jimmygoon | MrJoey, compatibility with what? | 03:11 |
| andguent | you know, hardy and hoary are just too similar when tired, I swore you guys were using an Ubuntu edition from like 2-3 years ago :) | 03:11 |
| MrJoey | Well, mainly with DVD recorders and hard drives | 03:11 |
| IOU | jimmygoon: I have noticed the CPU spikes with every switch | 03:11 |
| MrJoey | I don't need any graphical stuff, really | 03:11 |
| wookienz | linxeh: nothing relevant shown there..interesting...maybe it is not a perm. mount? | 03:11 |
| kazagistar | I am having audio problems (its just not working), and the basic troubleshooting is not solving it... "aplay -l" gives stuff, but alsamixer is not muted | 03:12 |
| MrJoey | My ridiculous idea is to create a Live DVD RW that can extract an image from one computer and write the image to the DVD itself | 03:12 |
| IOU | kazagistar: which Ubuntu version? | 03:12 |
| MrJoey | Then that DVD could be removed and put on another computer to image it. | 03:12 |
| kazagistar | gutsy gibbon | 03:12 |
| jimmygoon | MrJoey, well I customized a frugal install for a digital picture frame I built... it has decent driver support .... hard drives and dvd burners are fairly simple to support... they are ide interfaces and they usually follow a pretty predictable standard for driver interfacing AFAIK | 03:12 |
| MrJoey | All without requiring a separate USB hard drive | 03:12 |
| MrJoey | okay, that's good to know | 03:12 |
| MrJoey | though I did run DSL (not -N) on one computer, and it didn't see the hard drives | 03:13 |
| andguent | MrJoey: I'm assuming you are aware of systemimager? | 03:13 |
| MrJoey | Nope :) | 03:13 |
| jimmygoon | MrJoey, that sounds like an interesting scenario. If it worked you'd have to get DSL loading itself into memory instead of constantly loading from the dvdrw otherwise you'd overwrite the os partially in mem | 03:13 |
| MrJoey | DSL supports that | 03:13 |
| MrJoey | You can add 'tomem' (I think that's it) to the boot arguments | 03:13 |
| jimmygoon | MrJoey, I know. I was just throwing it out there. good luck. | 03:14 |
| MrJoey | I need to look at that; I don't want to reinvent the wheel on this one | 03:14 |
| kazagistar | i'm on a new, HP pavilion laptop and am running 7.10 | 03:14 |
| ceil420 | !wifi | 03:14 |
| ubotu | Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 03:14 |
| MrJoey | However, the images I would likely clone are Windows | 03:14 |
| andguent | MrJoey: System imager does a decent job of cloning one box to another, i've only used it in a hosted server environment with boxes uploading their image to a central server, and then pulling the image back down at another box... I've only used it with Ubuntu | 03:15 |
| Karsyth | andguent: do you think i need any of these? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59644/ | 03:15 |
| andguent | Karsyth: sec... | 03:15 |
| hardware | clear | 03:15 |
| hardware | hello | 03:15 |
| jimmygoon | MrJoey, why can't each machine pull from the original server... it will be faster than reading from the dvd on the subsequent machines anyway | 03:15 |
| MrJoey | Does Systemimager depend on there being a Linux there, or does it not care what OS is on there (e.g. Windows) | 03:15 |
| MrJoey | Good point | 03:16 |
| wookienz | i have added a line to fstab to add a smbfs share at boot... will a "networking restart" bring the share up or do i have to reboot? | 03:16 |
| MrJoey | But there's still merit in the DVD way (it doesn't require setting up said server to pull up an image when a place has many different types of computers) | 03:17 |
| stefano_ | wookienz, mount the device manually until your next reboot. you're not on a server that you can't just reboot, are you? | 03:17 |
| MrJoey | Even though Apache is really easy to set up for that sort of basic networking | 03:17 |
| Coolguy64537 | i installed the alternate cd of gutsy now when i boot up it just goes to command line not the gui | 03:17 |
| Coolguy64537 | what do i do | 03:17 |
| andguent | Karsyth: holy bejeebers thats a lot of leftovers, /usr/local/*/wine should have all been cleaned out with an uninstall..... do you get much if you run this command: 'dpkg -l|grep wine' | 03:17 |
| stefano_ | MrJoey, apache should not be mentioned in a sentence containing the word "basic" | 03:17 |
| wookienz | stefano_: it is a remote box that i dont want to reboot as it needs me to replug in screen to log on and then i can VNC to it. another thing i need to fix! | 03:17 |
| Karsyth | andguent: it just went to a new line | 03:18 |
| MrJoey | heh | 03:18 |
| MrJoey | sorry for offending the flagship Linux application :) | 03:18 |
| stefano_ | wookienz, can't you connect to it via ssh? | 03:18 |
| Coolguy64537 | i installed the alternate cd of gutsy now when i boot up it just goes to command line not the gui what do i do | 03:18 |
| lanuser | Hello - I'm trying to get splash & fbdev support on a ThinkPad T40 that has a Radeon Mobility 7500 | 03:18 |
| stefano_ | MrJoey, i just mean, apache is a huge blob. it's not basic by any stretch of the imagination | 03:18 |
| MrJoey | oh | 03:19 |
| Coolguy64537 | anyone | 03:19 |
| andguent | Karsyth: I would say anything wine related in /home or /root is fine to blow away, especially if none of it works.... I'm always hesitant to just go hacking /usr/local | 03:19 |
| wookienz | i can..but i am vnc ing to it and then adding shares from another windows box. | 03:19 |
| MrJoey | Linux is the flagship Linux program, then :) | 03:19 |
| Karsyth | andguent: so just manually delete the folders? or should i run some command? | 03:19 |
| Coolguy64537 | can anyone help me please | 03:19 |
| stefano_ | MrJoey, at least for the desktop, the flagship linux program would be x.org i think :> | 03:19 |
| Coolguy64537 | i installed the alternate cd of gutsy now when i boot up it just goes to command line not the gui | 03:20 |
| lanuser | Coolguy64537 what kind of video card do you have? | 03:20 |
| Coolguy64537 | geforce go 6100 | 03:20 |
| MrJoey | heh | 03:20 |
| stefano_ | Coolguy64537, what does the screen say? does it promt you to log in or does it display some error messages? | 03:20 |
| MrJoey | Well, there's the GNU utils, those also have a monopoly in Free Software :) | 03:20 |
| Coolguy64537 | prompts me to log in | 03:20 |
| MrJoey | except for special cases | 03:20 |
| Coolguy64537 | then gives me command line | 03:20 |
| jrib | Coolguy64537: what is the output of 'apt-cache policy ubuntu-desktop'? | 03:21 |
| Coolguy64537 | what | 03:21 |
| lanuser | Coolguy64537 login and then do a "sudo su" | 03:21 |
| LimCore | http://pastebin.ca/943280 | 03:21 |
| Coolguy64537 | ok | 03:21 |
| jrib | lanuser: sudo -i is preferred | 03:21 |
| stefano_ | Coolguy64537, does it say "root@yourmachine #"? | 03:21 |
| Coolguy64537 | ya | 03:21 |
| Coolguy64537 | well not now but i have to do reboot and do it | 03:22 |
| Coolguy64537 | im on one cp | 03:22 |
| stefano_ | Coolguy64537, that normally happens when you boot into recovery mode, did you try to reboot the machine? | 03:22 |
| jrib | Coolguy64537: three people are talking to you, so "ya" is kind of ambiguous | 03:22 |
| jrib | !who | Coolguy64537 | 03:22 |
| ubotu | Coolguy64537: 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 :) | 03:22 |
| wookienz | ok guys why cant i run unrar on an archive that is mounted through smb? | 03:22 |
| Coolguy64537 | stefano:yes | 03:22 |
| stefano_ | Coolguy64537, did the install finish properly? | 03:23 |
| Coolguy64537 | wait.......when i was installing it didnt do the software section | 03:23 |
| andguent | Karsyth: yea, 'mv /home/karsynth/.wine /tmp' 'mv /home/karsyth/.fr-cpVA4N/.wine /tmp' 'mv /home/karsyth/.fr-tsxG8h/.wine /tmp' -- start with that | 03:23 |
| Coolguy64537 | stefano:could that be the problem | 03:24 |
| stefano_ | Coolguy64537, well that would be the reason then :-) tell you what: just type "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop" and say yes to all the questions, make sure everything finishes properly (you have to have a network connection), it can take a while | 03:24 |
| stefano_ | Coolguy64537, oh wait | 03:24 |
| === Ashfire is now known as Ashfire908 | ||
| stefano_ | Coolguy64537, first, let's see if you have a network connection: type in "ping google.com" | 03:25 |
| Karsyth | andguent: that moves it to temp which is cleared on reboot correct? | 03:25 |
| lanuser | Coolguy64537 after you did this "sudo su" and logged in, now do this "wget http://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/169.12/NVIDIA-Linux-x86-169.12-pkg1.run" | 03:25 |
| Coolguy64537 | i dont have it running | 03:25 |
| Coolguy64537 | im on the laptop i gatta install to | 03:25 |
| jrib | Coolguy64537: if the install did not finish properly, you need to verify the integrity of the cd (option when you boot) and reinstall because you have no idea what did and did not get done | 03:25 |
| Coolguy64537 | ill go hardwire it though | 03:25 |
| stefano_ | Coolguy64537, okay, when you boot it up next time, first make sure you have a network connection (you should), then type "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop" this should solve your issue even if the cd is broken | 03:26 |
| Coolguy64537 | stefano ok thanks | 03:26 |
| stefano_ | Coolguy64537, you may have to change your repositories though if they are still pointing to the cd | 03:26 |
| Coolguy64537 | ok what about drivers | 03:27 |
| stefano_ | Coolguy64537, wait a sec, i'll get you a link for that | 03:27 |
| stefano_ | Coolguy64537, don't worry about drivers just yet, if everything works, your finished ubuntu asks your for drivers, you just have to do one click | 03:27 |
| Coolguy64537 | stefano thanks man, if it works ill log back on and tell ya, if it doesnt work ill be back on too | 03:28 |
| stefano_ | Coolguy64537, if you're repositories are still pointing to the cd, this link should help: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories | 03:28 |
| stefano_ | Coolguy64537, okay, i hope for the best :-) | 03:28 |

| tbr281 | how do you unmount a printer | 03:30 |
| tbr281 | ? | 03:30 |
| stefano_ | tbr281, a printer is not mounted | 03:30 |
| stefano_ | tbr281, rip out the cable :-) | 03:31 |
| tbr281 | ha ha... | 03:31 |
| tbr281 | :P | 03:31 |
| andguent | shutting the printer off works too...... | 03:31 |
| stefano_ | tbr281, you got all sorts of fancy hotplugging going on, just unpluggin it won't be a problem | 03:31 |
| AyueLee_ | . | 03:31 |
| stefano_ | yes @ andguent | 03:31 |
| balukka | Hi to all, Did anybody had trouble upgrading to the newer skype? | 03:32 |
| s2a | is it possible to emulate ubuntu in windows? if so then can i emulate an existing partition and not need to install a new one? (the existing partition was not virtually made) | 03:32 |
| tbr281 | i can't get my printer to communicate with VB | 03:32 |
| stefano_ | balukka, do you mean the latest table version or a beta version? | 03:32 |
| tbr281 | a threat on the forum states that you have to unmount your printer first | 03:32 |
| tbr281 | thread* | 03:32 |
| andguent | stefano_: I never like seeing the word "rip" in relation to computer equipment, unless you were paid to destroy it or something :) | 03:32 |
| stefano_ | tbr281, what's vb? | 03:32 |
| tbr281 | VirtualBox | 03:33 |
| stefano_ | andguent, true :-) | 03:33 |
| stefano_ | tbr281, i can't imagine what the author would possibly mean by unmounting. sorry | 03:33 |
| stefano_ | tbr281, does he give any clues on how to do so? | 03:34 |
| jfox | hello | 03:34 |
| stefano_ | hello jfox | 03:34 |

| Jinxed- | cWhat is the best client to use for sftp? | 03:35 |
| C | for a college class i had to have linux | 03:35 |
| stefano_ | C please try to keep your questions in one line | 03:35 |
| stefano_ | Jinxed-, gftp is pretty good | 03:35 |
| Jinxed- | stefano_, how do you get sftp to work with it? I can only get it to work with filezilla | 03:36 |
| Jinxed- | and i don't like filezilla very much | 03:36 |
| C | i tried a dual boot and it went HORRIBLY wrong...all i could get to install was a 5.04 server install..i would really like a gui | 03:36 |
| stefano_ | Jinxed-, just select sftp2 from the list of protocols | 03:36 |
| BysmuthMage | hey I'm on 8.04 a6. does anyone know if there's any way to get the "information is available"populs back after you dismiss them? | 03:36 |
| TrueNme | how do i add a operating system to the grub bootloader ? | 03:37 |
| BysmuthMage | that's popups | 03:37 |
| stefano_ | C, can you give more information on those issues? | 03:37 |
| Jinxed- | stefano_, i don't have sftp from protcal list, how do i add it? | 03:37 |
| C | do you have any ideas? my college class is over now so i can mess with it, right now im trying the 5.04 default install.. | 03:37 |
| stefano_ | Jinxed-, do you have SSH? | 03:37 |
| stefano_ | BysmuthMage, it probably just said "restart firefox" or "reboot your computer2 | 03:37 |
| bastid_raZor | C; you have ubuntu server installed? if you want to install gnome in command line type sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop gdm | 03:37 |
| Jinxed- | stefano_, I am not sure what you mean, I am able to ssh into my school account from the terminal | 03:38 |
| stefano_ | Jinxed-, i mean do you have ssh in your list of protocols in gftp | 03:38 |
| Jinxed- | yeah | 03:38 |
| Jinxed- | stefano_, well | 03:38 |
| stefano_ | Jinxed-, try to use that | 03:38 |
| Jinxed- | stefano_, I have ssh2 | 03:38 |
| C | i have considered that bastid_raZor but i would kinda like something newer if possible | 03:38 |
| stefano_ | Jinxed-, the newer the better :-) | 03:38 |
| bastid_raZor | C like? | 03:39 |
| BysmuthMage | nope i installed Xserves-xgl and it told me a file to add to disable something. and now I dont know what that file is | 03:39 |
| stefano_ | 7.10 bastid_raZor | 03:39 |
| Jinxed- | stefano_, error could not read from socket | 03:39 |
| C | i was hoping for like 6.10 maybe at least | 03:39 |
| Jinxed- | The protocol 'sftp' is currently not supported. | 03:39 |
| stefano_ | Jinxed-, did you maybe install an old version by accident? | 03:39 |
| C | by i havent had any luck wiht it..its only got a 40gb hard drive and hte lovely 256mb ram..and the evil celeron processor | 03:39 |
| Jinxed- | what is the current version | 03:39 |
| C | 7.10 | 03:39 |
| stefano_ | C, 7.10 is the current version | 03:39 |
| stefano_ | C, you can upgrade between those versions | 03:40 |
| TrueNme | whats the command to edit the grub bootloader ? | 03:40 |
| Jinxed- | stefano_, I have 2.0.18 which according to their website is the latest stable version | 03:40 |
| stefano_ | !upgrade | C | 03:40 |
| ubotu | C: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes | 03:40 |
| C | i have tried 7.10 several times and from differnt computers thinking i burned a bad iso | 03:40 |
| Odd-rationale | TrueNme: gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst | 03:40 |
| stefano_ | C, don't burn an iso, just upgrade your running system | 03:40 |
| TrueNme | °~° Odd-rationale °~° thank you | 03:40 |
| TrueNme | °~° Odd-rationale °~° you know where i can get a printable list of commands ? | 03:41 |
| stefano_ | Jinxed-, but you did install it via synaptic/apt-get, not by downloading it from the website right? | 03:41 |
| Jinxed- | stefano_, oh you mean ubuntu.... yeah I have 7.10 | 03:41 |
| Jinxed- | I did it via add/remove programs | 03:41 |
| stefano_ | Jinxed-, no i meant gfpt, sorry two conversations got mixed up | 03:41 |
| Odd-rationale | TrueNme: Shell commands? | 03:41 |
| stefano_ | Jinxed-, wait a sec, i'll check it on my system | 03:42 |
| C | how do i upgrade with no gui? :S (im fairly new to linux..even though i have taken a class on it | 03:42 |
| stefano_ | C, did you get the link ubotu sent you? | 03:42 |
| TrueNme | °~° Odd-rationale °~° yes that or any commands for ubuntu | 03:42 |
| Jinxed- | stefano_, I don't know what happened but I got it to work now | 03:43 |
| C | yup..my version is obsolete | 03:43 |
| stefano_ | Jinxed-, great :-) | 03:43 |
| Odd-rationale | TrueNme: Well. there are really too many to list. Start by learning a few at a time. | 03:43 |
| Jinxed- | :/ maybe the program got wise and knew I was about to remove it and it decided to work | 03:43 |
| stefano_ | C, wait a sec | 03:43 |
| bastid_raZor | TrueNme; this is a set of commands for Bash :: http://www.network-theory.co.uk/docs/bashref/BuiltinIndex.html | 03:43 |

| joanki | i dropped my computer and now the battery doesn't seem to last as long | 03:43 |
| TrueNme | °~° Odd-rationale °~° im going for a triple boot | 03:43 |
| joanki | i want to find out what is causing this | 03:43 |
| TrueNme | °~° bastid_raZor °~° what is bash ? | 03:44 |
| joanki | and if maybe i broke something , causing my computer to work harder | 03:44 |

| C | thanks :) | 03:44 |
| stefano_ | C, follow these directions, update your sources.list file so that it's the latest version (which s called gutsy) | 03:44 |
| Jinxed- | stefano_, is there a way for it not to show hidden files? | 03:44 |
| bastid_raZor | TrueNme; http://www.network-theory.co.uk/docs/bashref/index.html :: bash is 1.2 on that index list. Bash is a shell, in short | 03:45 |
| C | and actually....a default install of 5.04 just finished without stopping :) | 03:45 |
| TrueNme | °~° Odd-rationale °~° no xp pro/ ubuntu / osx86 tiger | 03:45 |
| stefano_ | Jinxed-, i dont think so | 03:45 |
| TrueNme | my dualboot install went great from cd from ver 710 | 03:45 |
| ^root^ | just wanna ask, what would be new version of ubuntu? 8.04? would that be LTS? or 8.10 will be LTS coming in oct 2008 | 03:45 |
| Jinxed- | stefano_, Ftp->options-> unclick show hidden files... found it... hey thanks for you help with everything though, I am excited this is working now | 03:45 |
| bastid_raZor | ^root^; 8.04 will be LTS next month | 03:46 |
| Ashfire908 | is there a ubuntu program to take video of the desktop/display? | 03:46 |
| stefano_ | Jinxed-, youre welcome | 03:46 |
| TrueNme | °~° Odd-rationale °~° only one thing i dont like so far i cant seem to find a irc client i like as much as mirc | 03:46 |
| xserver-sgl | in 8.04 a6 does anyone know of a way to get back the "information is available" notification area popups after you dismiss them? I installed xserver-xgl from synaptic and one popped up, it wasn't something stupid like restart firefox. I was supposed to add a file somewhere to disable starting a new X for xgl or something... and I need that info now. | 03:46 |
| Odd-rationale | ^root^: 8.04 will be out april 24. it will be LTS | 03:46 |
| stefano_ | C, after you followed those instructions, run this command: " sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade " | 03:46 |
| stefano_ | C, afterwards your system should be up to date | 03:46 |
| ^root^ | bastid_raZor: Odd-rationale: i see, great, i was waiting for LTS :'( | 03:47 |

| joanki | can anyone help me? | 03:47 |
| joanki | can anyone tell me of a good hardware room? | 03:47 |
| joanki | i dropped my computer and now the battery doesn't seem to last as long | 03:47 |
| joanki | i want to find out what is causing this | 03:47 |
| joanki | and if maybe i broke something , causing my computer to work harder | 03:47 |
| Karsyth | do i need wine to install cedega cvs? | 03:47 |
| Coolguy64537 | im back | 03:48 |
| TrueNme | °~° Odd-rationale °~° i saw it but want sure if it was cmd line only or not the last one i tride (bitchX) i think its command line only not too sure how to use it | 03:48 |
| bastid_raZor | Ashfire908; recordmydesktop is.. i'm looking for the actual package you need.. 1 sec | 03:48 |
| stefano_ | joanki, it just seems you broke some cells in your battery | 03:48 |
| neosix | Karsyth: no | 03:48 |
| Karsyth | neosix: ok then im getting a serious error | 03:48 |
| Odd-rationale | TrueNme: no. xchat is not command line | 03:48 |
| joanki | stefano_, how do i know if that's the only thing broke? | 03:48 |
| stefano_ | basti, isnt it gtk-recordmydesktop | 03:48 |
| joanki | stefano_, do they break easily? | 03:48 |
| joanki | and also, it seems a bit hotter than i remember before | 03:48 |
| Coolguy64537 | stefano: it didnt work | 03:48 |
| neosix | Karsyth: what error | 03:48 |
| joanki | but i could be imagining that | 03:48 |
| bastid_raZor | stefano_; Ashfire908 yes, it is gtk-recordmydesktop | 03:49 |
| Ashfire908 | bastid_raZor, it's "recordmydesktop". | 03:49 |
| Coolguy64537 | i think the reositories need to be changed but i dont know how | 03:49 |
| TrueNme | °~° Odd-rationale °~° kool ill try it where do i get it from ? | 03:49 |
| bastid_raZor | Ashfire908; for the graphical frontend you'll need the gtk-recordmydesktop package. | 03:49 |
| TrueNme | °~° Odd-rationale °~° package manager ? | 03:49 |
| Ashfire908 | bastid_raZor, er yea didn't see it | 03:49 |
| stefano_ | joanki, if they drop, sometimes a cell breaks (laptop batteries are made of 4 to12 different cells). sometimes, this can be very dangerous | 03:49 |
| Karsyth | neosix: well im installing by the instructions of this site http://www.linux-gamers.net/modules/wiwimod/index.php?page=HOWTO+Cedega+CVS and im at the part where i have to type "sh WineCVS.sh" and i get this error - test: 43: ==: unexpected operator WineCVS.sh: 48: Syntax error: "(" unexpected | 03:49 |
| Ashfire908 | bastid_raZor, yea. | 03:50 |
| joanki | stefano_, dangerouus? | 03:50 |
| joanki | so i need to be worried? | 03:50 |
| Odd-rationale | TrueNme: Yes. you can use synaptic | 03:50 |
| joanki | do* | 03:50 |
| TrueNme | °~° Odd-rationale °~° ok thank you i found it | 03:50 |
| bastid_raZor | Ashfire908; i've used it several times.. it creates large files.. but i have dual monitors so it has a lot to record. | 03:50 |
| neosix | Karsyth: well maybe you need some dependencies | 03:50 |
| Karsyth | neosix: can you point me in any direction? | 03:51 |
| stefano_ | joanki, maybe, i'm not sure i was just guessing. but batteries deprecciate in capacity just over time, how dramatic is it? | 03:51 |
| Ashfire908 | bastid_raZor, what kind of video type does it output? | 03:51 |
| NForc3r | hey guys how do i eject the CD drive in this case? - Im installing The Sims 2 using wine and it works fine so far. but now it asks me to insert disk 2... i press the eject CD button on my CD drive and it says "Can not unmount drive because it is being used" | 03:51 |
| joanki | before it used to last 3.5 hours | 03:51 |
| joanki | now it lasts about 2 | 03:51 |
| NForc3r | DVD* | 03:51 |
| neosix | Karsyth: sorry I never used cedega only wine | 03:51 |
| joanki | 2.5 | 03:51 |
| PongoShawn | hi | 03:51 |
| stefano_ | Ashfire908, by the way, if you are looking for an easy video editing program, try "pitivi"! | 03:51 |
| bastid_raZor | Ashfire908; oddly enough .ogg which i change to .ogm | 03:51 |
| PongoShawn | Does anyone know if Wubi works on 64 bit computers? | 03:52 |
| NForc3r | ?? | 03:52 |
| bob__ | Hi, I'm trying to install mono from synaptic but I get this error: | 03:52 |
| neosix | Karsyth: find some irc channel about cedega, if there is any | 03:52 |
| bob__ | mono: | 03:52 |
| bob__ | Depends: mono-common (=1.2.4-6ubuntu6.1) but 1.2.6+dfsg-5~bpo40+1 is to be installed | 03:52 |
| bob__ | Depends: mono-jit (=1.2.4-6ubuntu6.1) but 1.2.6+dfsg-5~bpo40+1 is to be installed | 03:52 |
| NForc3r | guys? | 03:52 |
| bob__ | what can I do? | 03:52 |
| PongoShawn | ? | 03:52 |
| stefano_ | joanki, well that could be caused by a software issue, thats not so dramatic. do you have cpu frequency scaling enabled? (the thing that clocks your processor down if you don't use it so much) | 03:52 |
| TrueNme | °~° Odd-rationale °~° it says i cant add Xchat-systray is there a reason i cant use that plugin? | 03:52 |
| xserver-sgl | would ubuntu log notification area popups? and if so, where? | 03:52 |
| Ashfire908 | bastid_raZor, i have a converter, i'll just convert it. | 03:53 |
| lilg111111 | using evolution but i dont have the icon to start it i have to use alt f2 i need the icon | 03:53 |
| PongoShawn | does wubi work on 64 bits? | 03:53 |
| NForc3r | ?? | 03:53 |
| neosix | Karsyth: maybe you can try to install depend. for wine and then cedega | 03:53 |
| Odd-rationale | TrueNme: Have no idea... | 03:53 |
| Ashfire908 | stefano_, thanks, i was just thinking about that. | 03:53 |
| stefano_ | xserver-sgl, no it doesnt do that. what's your specific issue? | 03:53 |
| bastid_raZor | Ashfire908; there you go.. enjoy your desktop recordings.. it does sound too | 03:53 |
| TrueNme | °~° Odd-rationale °~° ok | 03:53 |
| joanki | i don't know stefano_ , but nothing's changed as far as settings | 03:53 |
| tritium | TrueNme: why do you add extra characters to your nick completion? | 03:53 |
| NForc3r | wubi does work on 64 bit | 03:53 |
| NForc3r | i think | 03:53 |
| PongoShawn | ok | 03:53 |
| joanki | stefano_, if everything works, then should i not be concerned? | 03:53 |
| bob__ | could anyone here help me install mono, I get this error: | 03:53 |
| bob__ | mono: | 03:53 |
| bob__ | Depends: mono-common (=1.2.4-6ubuntu6.1) but 1.2.6+dfsg-5~bpo40+1 is to be installed | 03:53 |

| neosix | <NForc3r>close wine | 03:53 |
| lilg111111 | need the evolution icon to start it instead of using alt f2 | 03:54 |

| TrueNme | °~° tritium °~° im on windows and using a mirc its already aded i just double click the name | 03:54 |
| neosix | <NForc3r>then try with command umount | 03:54 |
| NForc3r | i cant close wine | 03:54 |
| NForc3r | what is the command to unmount? | 03:54 |
| neosix | <NForc3r> pkill wine | 03:54 |
| tritium | TrueNme: hmm. It's not visually pleasing. | 03:54 |
| stefano_ | joanki, when you click on the little battery icon near your clock, then on "laptop battery" (or similar), it should show a status report on your battery, if something is damaged it would appear in there. also, it shows how much of your batteries factory capacity is left. that should give you a clue. | 03:54 |
| TrueNme | °~° tritium °~° script thats running in mirc i can change it if you like ? | 03:54 |
| Odd-rationale | NForc3r: sudo umount | 03:54 |
| NForc3r | if i close wine then i cant install the game defeating the reason i am here in the first place | 03:54 |
| NForc3r | kk | 03:54 |
| neosix | <NForc3r> or ps aux | grep wine and then kill process by the number | 03:54 |
| tritium | TrueNme: no, it's okay. Thanks for offering. | 03:55 |
| neosix | <NForc3r> aha OK | 03:55 |
| TrueNme | tritium :: better ? | 03:55 |
| stefano_ | TrueNme, you're running mirc on ubuntu? try xchat :-) it's free software (free as in freedom) | 03:55 |
| neosix | <NForc3r> do you have another cdrom drive | 03:55 |
| joanki | stefano_, wow thanks for all your information | 03:55 |
| tritium | TrueNme: yes, thanks. You're very kind. | 03:55 |
| joanki | that is very good | 03:55 |
| NForc3r | sudo unmount cdrom - command not found | 03:55 |
| joanki | stefano_, could it also be because i've been running virtualbox and i don't normally do that? | 03:56 |
| GullyFoyle | umount | 03:56 |
| TrueNme | stefano_ :: yeah thats what im trying to do now is get the Xchat packages and plugins | 03:56 |
| neosix | <NForc3r> umount | 03:56 |
| GullyFoyle | not unmount | 03:56 |
| Ashfire908 | bastid_raZor, k thanks | 03:56 |
| neosix | <NForc3r> not um | 03:56 |
| bob__ | Hi there, could some one please help me install mono, I get this error: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59647/ | 03:56 |
| NForc3r | even if i did have another drive the installation only uses one | 03:56 |
| NForc3r | ohh | 03:56 |
| stefano_ | joanki, yes it can be, virtualbox does drain a lot of power because it is very cpu intense | 03:56 |
| joanki | ohhhhh thanks SO much | 03:56 |
| joanki | i was watching a dvd yesterday | 03:56 |
| joanki | and virtualbox today | 03:56 |
| TrueNme | stefano_ :: how ever it wont let me mark the Xchat-systray plugin for download ? any ideas ? | 03:56 |
| joanki | so that is probably it | 03:56 |
| stefano_ | TrueNme, you don't need a systray plugin, xchat does that out of the box | 03:57 |
| TrueNme | stefano_ :: something about unresolved dependencies | 03:57 |
| NForc3r | what is my cd drive called? | 03:57 |
| TrueNme | oh ok | 03:57 |
| neosix | <NForc3r> how do you mean usis only one | 03:57 |
| stefano_ | TrueNme, make sure you don't install xchat-gnome but rahter just plain xchat | 03:57 |
| NForc3r | i try "cdrom' and cdrom0 but nothing | 03:57 |
| neosix | <NForc3r> see in /media | 03:57 |
| stefano_ | joanki, i'm glad i could help | 03:57 |
| NForc3r | yeah | 03:58 |
| TrueNme | stefano_ :: whats the diff. ? | 03:58 |
| bob__ | Hi there, could some one please help me install mono, I get this error: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59647/ | 03:58 |
| tritium | NForc3r: /cdrom should be a symlink to it | 03:58 |
| NForc3r | in media its got cdrom and cdrom0 nether work | 03:58 |
| NForc3r | do i type /cdrom? | 03:58 |
| LinuxMonkey | Let me guess stefano_ you use screen and irssi? | 03:58 |
| tritium | NForc3r: what are you trying to do? | 03:58 |
| tritium | LinuxMonkey: good combination! | 03:58 |
| NForc3r | ah there | 03:58 |
| neosix | <NForc3r> I have the same problem, and I just used another drive | 03:58 |
| NForc3r | now it says cdrom is busy.. damn! | 03:58 |
| NForc3r | oh really/ | 03:59 |
| Vad1 | Can a mortal user get a @ubuntu.com email address? | 03:59 |
| stefano_ | TrueNme, you can install both and see for yourself, thats better than i could explain it, but basically "xchat" is the correct package | 03:59 |
| NForc3r | i shoudl get another drive soonish.. i have another IDE one | 03:59 |
| NForc3r | (DVD DL writer not cd drive) | 03:59 |
| tritium | NForc3r: do you need the path to where it's mounted, or the path to the device? | 03:59 |
| TrueNme | stefano_ :: what is guile plugin ? | 03:59 |
| TrueNme | stefano_ :: for scripting ? | 04:00 |
| NForc3r | what do you mean | 04:00 |
| stefano_ | LinuxMonkey, i use xchat and gnome :-) at least right now on my laptop, when i'm on my PDP-11 i use a turing language to create the irc packages myself xD | 04:00 |
| stefano_ | TrueNme, i don't know | 04:00 |
| stefano_ | TrueNme, i suggest you leave it for now and get started in xchat first | 04:00 |
| LinuxMonkey | TrueNme: XChat-Guile is a plugin for XChat that enables XChat plugin writers to write their plugins in Scheme language. | 04:00 |
| tritium | NForc3r: what are you trying to do? | 04:00 |
| jimmygoon | What/Where do I edit my current theme to make the menu items shorter (less tall) | 04:00 |
| TrueNme | LinuxMonkey :: ok for scripting thats what i thought | 04:01 |
| NForc3r | im installing the sims 2 and it seams to work so far. the thing is i got to the point where it asks for disk 2. i press the cd drive button and it says "unable to mount because device is in use" | 04:01 |
| captine | hi all. anyone able to suggest best setup for ati graphics? Am on a notebook, and think using the restricted drivers is not working well, as Ubuntu crashes every now and then | 04:01 |
| TrueNme | i dont need it | 04:01 |
| neosix | <NForc3r> do you nave 2 cdroms | 04:01 |
| tritium | !who | NForc3r | 04:01 |
| ubotu | NForc3r: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) | 04:01 |
| brett | Anyone able to help with wireless networking? | 04:02 |
| stefano_ | TrueNme, i take it you are a power user, if so, xchat will offer you a lot of stuff to tinker with even without installing any plugins | 04:02 |
| neosix | brett: what is the prob | 04:02 |
| === tuna-fish is now known as tuna | ||
| TrueNme | stefano_ :: power user ? | 04:02 |
| NForc3r | neosix: Yes and No. I have one IDE port on my computer and my OS HDD and my current DVD drive are on it. i have another drive not connected to my computer so basicly. no i dont have another HDD | 04:02 |
| brett | the module for the card is not loaded properly | 04:02 |
| NForc3r | You cant connect more then 2 things to an IDE plug can you? | 04:03 |
| stefano_ | TrueNme, i mean you seem like you want to configure a lot of things :-) | 04:03 |
| brett | But after boot I do the commands "rmmod rt2500pci, modprobe rt2500pci, /etc/init.d/networking restart" and then it works | 04:03 |
| stefano_ | NForc3r, yes | 04:03 |
| neosix | brett: do you used madwifi drivers or ndiswr. | 04:03 |
| === slaytani1 is now known as slaytanic | ||
| stefano_ | NForc3r, that's yes you can't | 04:03 |
| brett | Its the default | 04:04 |
| NForc3r | stefano_: so i CANT connect more then 3? | 04:04 |
| brett | ie in /etc/network/interfaces it does not specify the driver | 04:04 |
| TrueNme | stefano_ :: only in irc because i belong to group in another server and we dcc alot and i like to have alias and certain scripts up and running | 04:04 |
| stefano_ | NForc3r, you can connect up to two devices on an IDE port | 04:04 |
| neosix | brett: so you didn't install drivers manualy | 04:04 |
| NForc3r | apparently i need to do "wine eject <driveletter>:" | 04:04 |
| brett | nope | 04:04 |
| brett | This is running the server version | 04:05 |
| neosix | brett: do you have only card or AP | 04:05 |
| stefano_ | brett, instead of doing modprobe manually you can write everything you want to modprobe at boot into the /etc/modules file | 04:06 |
| sahil | if i have machines on different networks how can i consistantly ssh into all of them without using dyndns? | 04:06 |
| brett | I tried putting it into modprobe and it still doesnt work | 04:06 |
| jimmygoon | sahil, set each of them to a different port | 04:06 |
| brett | its just weird that if I do it manually after boot, it works | 04:06 |
| stefano_ | sahil, if they have dynapic ip adresses you can't | 04:07 |
| NForc3r | Cool. got it working XD | 04:07 |
| brett | so i'm guessing its loading before something else that it needs | 04:07 |
| sahil | stefano_:they all would-i was thinking maybe i could make a vpn? | 04:07 |
| neosix | brett: do you use rp-pppoe or pppoeconf | 04:07 |
| chaoticnation | Hey, i just installed ubuntu on on my gateway laptop and whenever i unplug the powerd cord the screen turns off. But not the computer. Any ideas??? | 04:07 |
| stefano_ | jimmygoon, sahil said on different networks | 04:07 |
| brett | whatever the default is. This was only a problem when I upgraded to Gutsty from Feisty | 04:07 |
| NForc3r | oh and. i tried to install my audio card driver and now i have no longer got sound on my pc | 04:07 |
| jimmygoon | stefano_, er then sahil should just have a different dyndns for each one? how would a single address be able to point at different networks simulatenously? | 04:08 |
| sahil | chaoticnation:is it turning off or just dimming a lot? | 04:08 |
| neosix | brett: run pppoeconf | 04:08 |
| NForc3r | where did i go wrong. and can i use the original driver insted (that worked fine) | 04:08 |
| stefano_ | sahil, you need some kind of information on where the computers are (what their ip adress is). you don't need a vpn at all but you do need dyndns in that case | 04:08 |
| sahil | jimmygoon:the dyndns approach seems unviable | 04:08 |
| chaoticnation | i belive its turning off, how would i check that? | 04:08 |
| stefano_ | sahil, there is another way | 04:08 |
| stefano_ | sahil, but it's complicated | 04:08 |
| sahil | stefano_:id be glad to hear it or tell me what it is and ill look into it | 04:08 |
| brett | I'll give it a try, prob best not to run it through a remote session though :) | 04:09 |
| === brett is now known as brett_afk | ||
| Black_Magic | I found my problem! | 04:09 |
| jimmygoon | sahil, why? they are separate machines on separate networks? why not have a different address for each... that is the way it works? I just don't understand what you're wanting or why | 04:09 |
| sahil | stefano_:id also be interested to know if theres a command where i can get the realip of it | 04:09 |
| Black_Magic | with my internet it was that /ect/network/interfaces didnt have my interface configured.. | 04:09 |
| bob__ | Hi there, could some one please help me install mono, I get this error: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59647/ | 04:09 |
| Black_Magic | so it wasnt getting dhcp meaning no internet | 04:09 |
| Black_Magic | it was using ath1 | 04:09 |
| [dcr] | Is there a reason why I cant get Warsow to run? o.o | 04:10 |
| sahil | jimmygoon: dyndns has to refresh i want to be able to send people boxes and be able to remotely administer them | 04:10 |
| xb3rtx | anyone know how to get a second life avators ip | 04:10 |
| stefano_ | sahil, you could use some kind of web server that you have (that never changes it's ip adress) and write little scripts that periodically send the computers ip adress to this server and install them on all of the computers. then you have all those in one place and you can connect to them by copy-pasting the ip. or you could write a script that downloads those ips and makes aliases for them. | 04:10 |
| Hirvinen | !offtopic | xb3rtx | 04:10 |
| ubotu | xb3rtx: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! | 04:10 |
| sahil | stefano: i think thats the way to do-how would i get their actual ip? | 04:11 |
| stefano_ | sahil, but you would need some sort of reliable webserver with a static ip and it would have to run a webserver, some sort of file server and you would have to write a program that sends back the ip (e.g in php) | 04:11 |
| jimmygoon | whoa whoa whoa... dyndns provides the ability to have scripts that update the dyndns automatically... they make them available for download | 04:11 |
| jimmygoon | heck, some routers even have the ability to login to your dyndns account and update it | 04:11 |
| _M | does anyone know lots about smbmnt | 04:12 |
| Termina | jimmygoon, I think you can even use wget in cron to update your dyndns account :) | 04:12 |
| stefano_ | sahil, if you have a webserver running php i can give you a php file that does that | 04:12 |
| Termina | it's pretty nifty | 04:12 |
| Ashfire | do i need to restart when i update the kernel modules package to use the new modules? | 04:12 |
| jimmygoon | Termina, yeah. exactly. Thats what I do for my mom... she uses it to work from home | 04:12 |

| LinuxMonkey | jimmygoon: especially if the router is running linux :) from being modified | 04:12 |

| IsotropicSpin_ | hey peeps, Does Anyone know Why Ubuntu crashes on my amd64. it has a fairly good graphics card and i installed the restricted drivers. | 04:12 |
| Termina | IsotropicSpin_, have you tried memtest? | 04:12 |
| === brett_afk is now known as brett | ||
| Termina | Let it run for 30 minutes | 04:13 |
| IsotropicSpin_ | it usually crashes when doing something with the GUI and installation of something | 04:13 |
| stefano_ | sahil, well thats the problem, my server is broken at the moment. all the file are on it. but the scripts are fairly easy | 04:13 |

| jimmygoon | If dyn1.dyndns.org points to the first machine ALWAYS and dyn2.dyndns.org points to the second machine ALWAYS.... what more do you want... I'm confused :( | 04:13 |
| Termina | turned out to be bad ram | 04:13 |
| IsotropicSpin_ | Termina.... will have a look but I have 4gb and nothing is open | 04:13 |

| stefano_ | sahil, why dont you join the channel #private142 - its so loud in here :> | 04:13 |
| Termina | for that to happen | 04:13 |
| jimmygoon | stefano_, mind if I tag along? | 04:13 |

| stefano_ | sahil, ? | 04:16 |
| neosix | brett: so does it work now | 04:16 |
| NETWizz | Okay | 04:16 |
| brett_back | no | 04:16 |
| Termina | You know, all those notices from tritium and ubotu probably take up more lines that people pasting 2/3 lines | 04:16 |
| NETWizz | I thought 2 lines would be okay | 04:16 |
| neosix | brett: and did you run pppoeconf | 04:17 |
| brett_back | the wireless works, but only after I manually remove, and then add the card and restart networking | 04:17 |
| NETWizz | Anyway, I won't do that again | 04:17 |

| msingh | it used to be build-essential? what is it now? | 04:18 |
| joanki | but i'm not running any processes other than virtualbox | 04:18 |
| jrib | msingh: same | 04:18 |
| joanki | why is mjy cpu History so high???? | 04:18 |
| neosix | brett: that things with dostro upgrade is tricky, why don't you fresh install feisty or Gatsy | 04:18 |
| sahil | stefano_:sorry call of nature | 04:18 |

| tritium | msingh: still build-essential | 04:19 |
| brett_back | fresh install is not really an option, huge amounts of data to back up (its on a box running mythtv) | 04:19 |
| stefano_ | joanki, that is because you have a processor with two cores in it, ubuntu recognises them as two seperate cpus so your system will be even faster when multitasking :-) | 04:19 |
| jrib | msingh: pastebin your sources.list | 04:19 |
| joanki | stefano_, but is it normal for 100% CPU history? | 04:19 |
| neosix | brett: aha, OK | 04:19 |
| joanki | even on cpu2? | 04:19 |

| Odd-rationale | joanki: kflashcards | 04:20 |
| stefano_ | joanki, if you open up the program gnome-system-monitor (just press Alt+F2 and type it in), you can see all your running proccesses and sort them by cpu usage, so you can see what programms are really bugging your processor. if neccesarry you can kill them | 04:20 |
| Termina | bob__, someone else just had that problem xD might be a problem with apt | 04:21 |
| jrib | bob__: have you mixed repositories or installed any .deb packages? | 04:21 |

| jimmygoon | Termina, I thought it just couldn't just more than 4gig | 04:22 |
| LinuxMonkey | NETWizz: what Termina said, you will need to install 64 bit if your cpu supports it | 04:22 |
| NETWizz | Mine does | 04:22 |
| NETWizz | But how do I install that without breaking everything? | 04:22 |

| bob__ | jrib: i don't understand what you mean | 04:23 |
| jimmygoon | Termina, huh? Will a 32 bit processor support UP TO 4 gig? | 04:23 |
| fatekeen | hallo everyone | 04:23 |
| NETWizz | If I install the 64-bit kernel, will it break everything? | 04:23 |
| jrib | bob__: run the command inside the '' quotation marks and pastebin the output | 04:23 |
| Termina | jimmygoon, no. It will support around 3gb | 04:23 |
| NETWizz | 3290 MB for mine | 04:24 |
| jimmygoon | WHAT?! ugh. That sucks. A lot | 04:24 |
| NETWizz | The cut off point seems arbitrary | 04:24 |
| tritium | jimmygoon: 2^32 is only so big | 04:24 |
| NETWizz | Yeah it is 4 GB! | 04:24 |
| Termina | xD | 04:24 |

| linux_trojan | what is the command to configure the network card from console? | 04:25 |
| NETWizz | gksudo gedit /etc/network/interfaces | 04:25 |
| jrib | bob__: you're using unofficial repositories | 04:25 |
| tritium | linux_trojan: ifconfig is used for that purpose, unless you need to edit the file NETWizz mentioned | 04:26 |
| ghais | linux_trojan, ifconfig or iwconfig for wireless | 04:26 |
| bob__ | jrib: how do I fix this and get mono installed? | 04:26 |
| jrib | bob__: they've broken your system | 04:26 |
| NETWizz | I would recommend you use network-admin for that task though | 04:26 |
| linux_trojan | can ifconfig configure my static IP, DNS, Gateway, etc? | 04:26 |
| jrib | bob__: mono was installed by default | 04:26 |
| _M | why do i get te error "Failed to find real path for mount point //192.168.0.199/pics: No such file or directory" when using SMBMNT but I can browse the files with nautilus | 04:26 |
| ghais | linux_trojan, yeah | 04:26 |
| NETWizz | Yes | 04:26 |
| bob__ | jrib: is my computer broken now? | 04:26 |
| linux_trojan | so I just type "ifconfig eth0" ? | 04:27 |
| NETWizz | HOwever, it is easier in network-admin | 04:27 |
| tritium | linux_trojan: no, it's not that simple if you want to configuare all of that manually. I suggest you use the gui tool. | 04:27 |

| NETWizz | I would just try again | 04:28 |
| Termina | linux_trojan, you could always use fluxbox or xfce if you wanted to :) | 04:28 |
| NETWizz | Check your Internet bob_ | 04:28 |
| jrib | bob__: I have no idea what is in that repository. You should stick to official repositories or ones that are recommended from official sources. This isn't even a repository for ubuntu, it's intended for debian. You can try to downgrade all the packages that got installed from that repository after you remove it from your sources.list, but there is no guarantee this will work | 04:28 |
| NETWizz | can you ping debian.meebey.net? | 04:28 |
| linux_trojan | ok let me giv it a shot | 04:28 |
| NETWizz | I would stick with the official repos as much as possible | 04:29 |

| ChevronX | But an old version? if they have stopped working on it I do not want it might have to get amarok | 04:30 |
| NETWizz | I will start using commas | 04:30 |
| jrib | bob__: apt-get install PACKAGE=VERSION will install version VERSION of package PACKAGE. You need to do that for everything in that repository | 04:30 |
| NETWizz | Just use whatever works | 04:31 |
| nickrud | ChevronX: xmms is pretty old | 04:31 |
| tritium | Just use normal punctuation. Sentences terminate with periods. | 04:31 |

| beatlesfan | nickrud, where does the zoom value appear ? | 04:41 |
| NETWizz | You should then modprobe ndiswrapper | 04:41 |
| beatlesfan | in ccsm | 04:41 |
| Newbuntu2 | NETWizz: I have it bring dectected b ndiswrapper | 04:42 |
| NETWizz | dmesg /var/tail/messages if you have problem or ifconfig | 04:42 |
| NETWizz | Okay, do an ifconfig? | 04:42 |
| nickrud | beatlesfan: iirc it's in rotate cube, I'm not using compiz these days | 04:42 |
| beatlesfan | ok, thanks | 04:42 |
| LinuxMonkey | kris_ph: Its in the java script code :) | 04:42 |
| beatlesfan | what are you using nickrud ? | 04:42 |
| NETWizz | You can try to do an ifup wlan0 or wlan1 | 04:42 |
| adrian_2002ca | okay | 04:43 |
| nickrud | beatlesfan: metacity | 04:43 |
| NETWizz | There is also dhclient | 04:43 |
| jrib | bob__: you need to look this up and tell me, I don't know. But yes, that is one of them. Now look at the output of 'apt-cache policy mono-common' and find the version in the repositories. We will call that version VERSION. Then you run 'sudo apt-get install mono-common=VERSION'. This may fail | 04:43 |
| kris_ph | LinuxMonkey: do you have an idea to what exact file I miss to modify? | 04:43 |
| NETWizz | bob___ what are you trying to do? | 04:43 |
| Ziroday | How do I preform a manual fsck? | 04:43 |
| LinuxMonkey | kris_ph: go to #private926 | 04:44 |
| bob__ | netwizz: install mono | 04:44 |
| nickrud | Ziroday: unmount the partition, then run sudo fsck /dev/device | 04:44 |
| NETWizz | umount /dev/device && fsck /dev/device | 04:44 |
| Ttech | TimS, ;) | 04:44 |
| bob__ | jrib: 1.2.6? | 04:44 |
| nickrud | Ziroday: notice the unmount, absolutely important | 04:44 |
| Ziroday | nickrud: thanks | 04:44 |
| NETWizz | Another option is to use tune2fs to mark it dirty | 04:44 |
| jrib | bob__: it should be 1.2.4-6ubuntu6.1 ... | 04:44 |
| Gunn | hey where can I get some burning software for ubuntu ? | 04:44 |
| beatlesfan | thanks nickrud | 04:44 |
| NETWizz | You can also use fstab to do that LOL | 04:45 |
| victorribeiro | theres notting is this whole world that makes my compiz effects works... sad! | 04:45 |
| tritium | Gunn: nautilus can burn. | 04:45 |
| Gunn | ok | 04:45 |
| victorribeiro | i have an ati xpress card 1150 series | 04:45 |
| nickrud | or touch /FORCEFSCK | 04:45 |
| NETWizz | @victorriberio, try a recent NVIDIA card and nvidia-glx-new | 04:45 |
| asorbus | Hi I have a problem with Adobe Flash player - when I go to www.redsox.com under Countdown to Opening Day 2008 it is just a white square where there should be an image | 04:45 |
| beatlesfan | victorribeiro, it took me a while to get it working, there are some really good tutorials | 04:45 |
| prettyricky | hey guys how can I get my pen to work on my tablet pc? any suggestions? | 04:45 |
| bob__ | jrib: its telling me the resource is temporarily unavailable | 04:45 |
| tritium | asorbus: there are bugs. www.toyota.com is another problem example | 04:45 |
| NETWizz | asorbus, I don't know how to fix that. Make sure you install Adobe Flash 9 though and try again | 04:45 |
| jrib | bob__: pastebin what you did and the output | 04:46 |
| asorbus | thank you tritium and NETWizz :) | 04:46 |
| victorribeiro | beatlesfan: could you send me? | 04:46 |
| Newbuntu2 | NETWizz: how do I pick which wireless network to connect to, and enter my passkey? | 04:46 |
| izinucs | Newbuntu2, the name that belongs to your network | 04:46 |
| tritium | Newbuntu2: are you using Network Manager? | 04:46 |
| Gunn | tritium: where can I get nautilus | 04:46 |
| bob__ | jrib: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59652/ | 04:46 |
| NETWizz | Use network-admin | 04:46 |
| tritium | Gunn: it's intsalled by default. It's the gnome graphical file manager. | 04:47 |
| NETWizz | You can also use your system tray notification area | 04:47 |
| izinucs | Gunn, it's built in.. it's the file manager | 04:47 |
| Ziroday | nickrud: fsck /dev/device worked, thanks a million | 04:47 |
| NETWizz | Same thing I said | 04:47 |
| Gunn | hmmm so how do i use it to burn an Image to a cd | 04:47 |
| Newbuntu2 | I'v etried netowrk manager, but it's useless. nt-applet finds all the networks, but when I try to connect it hangs the machine, or screws up the networking (I'm VNC'd into it via wired network). | 04:47 |
| NETWizz | Newbuntu2, you pick your own wireless network and you choose credentials then enter the passkey | 04:47 |
| victorribeiro | r3volv3r: br? | 04:47 |
| jrib | bob__: do you have another apt process open? Synaptic maybe? | 04:47 |
| nickrud | victorribeiro: system->admin->restricted manger, enable the ati resticted driver. Reboot. run fglrxinfo , make sure it's using 8.37.6 driver. install xserver-xgl compizconfig-settings-manager . Log out and back in. system->prefs->appearance, effects tab | 04:47 |
| izinucs | Gunn, use k3b .. | 04:48 |
| tritium | Gunn: right-click the image | 04:48 |

| adrian_2002ca | how do I use beatbox for daap? | 04:48 |
| jrib | bob__: close it | 04:48 |
| NETWizz | xserver-xgl sucks | 04:48 |
| tritium | r3volv3r: please don't repeat. Is it installed? | 04:48 |
| bob__ | jrib: done | 04:48 |
| victorribeiro | nickrud: I've tried that... | 04:48 |
| tritium | Gunn: select "Write to Disc" after right-clicking | 04:48 |
| NETWizz | You are much better using the less buggy AIGLX | 04:48 |
| izinucs | NETWizz, turn it off then.. | 04:48 |
| r3volv3r | everybody how open ssh on ubuntu server 6.0.6 | 04:48 |
| NETWizz | I don't run it | 04:48 |
| nickrud | victorribeiro: did you try using the driver from ati site? If you did, true, that won't work easily | 04:49 |
| tritium | r3volv3r: please don't repeat. Is it installed? | 04:49 |
| NETWizz | I am Nvidia, AIGLX, and Compiz-Fuzion | 04:49 |
| izinucs | NETWizz, trolling then? | 04:49 |
| Gunn | tirtium: ok thx | 04:49 |
| bob__ | jrib: I think it downgraded | 04:49 |
| nickrud | NETWizz: true, but with ati and ubuntu's driver, one has no choice. So ..... | 04:49 |
| WorkingOnWise | how can I enter alt codes in ubuntu? like alt+0232. I do it in windows and I get a funky e with a tail above it...but in ubuntu, in a terminal, a text box, in gedit..nothing at all | 04:49 |

| SkinnYPuppY | NETWizz: I shared the local folder on gutsy using smb. Nautilus from the other end <6.06lts> doesn't find any machines in the 'windows' network however I get a login prompt if I smb://192.168.0.myip however it won't accept passwd. Is there a command to map a drive to a local directory ? | 04:49 |
| victorribeiro | nickrud: Yeah man, I ask a guy friend of mine to take a look at it to me, cause he knows more about linux than me, even he couldnt help me | 04:50 |
| NETWizz | SKinnYPuppY, the password is from your linux account | 04:51 |

| SkinnYPuppY | I'll try browsing from nautilus on 6.06 again, I've got a nautilus window open from a ssh session to that box | 04:57 |
| bob__ | jrib: mono-jit wasn't one of them | 04:57 |
| NETWizz | Here was what fixed my sound | 04:57 |
| tritium | arrrghhh: /msg ubotu sound, and read the URL for some starters | 04:58 |
| llama32 | is there an application/feature wishlist for ubuntu [and/or desktop linux in general] out there? because i'm a developer with limited imagination, and i'd like to help out :) | 04:58 |

| tritium | NETWizz: ouch, last resort | 04:58 |
| NETWizz | That fixed it after I moved to a different motherboard | 04:58 |
| arrrghhh | NETWizz, i use kubuntu. thanks tritium, i'll check that out. | 04:58 |
| nickrud | llama32: brainstorm.ubuntu.com | 04:59 |

| nickrud | victorribeiro: so, what does fglrxinfo say now? | 04:59 |
| llama32 | nickrud: why the hell hadn't i seen this before? :| was this here 6 months ago? | 05:00 |
| victorribeiro | nickrud: its working, but its slow as hell | 05:00 |
| bob__ | jrib: mono-jit is version 1.2.4-6ubuntu6.1 | 05:00 |

| tuna | tux: that's just for root | 05:10 |
| bluewraith | nickrud, know much about iwconfig? when i try to set my key it reports invalid argument | 05:10 |
| arrrghhh | kee, well that doesn't make sense. what type of networking are you using on the vm. yea, resolv.conf is probably what he's talking about. /etc/network/interfaces would be a better place to look. | 05:10 |
| tuna | tux97: leave more for swap, and user files | 05:10 |
| enan | wireless networking with ubuntu gutsy is not stable in my box, any tweak on that? | 05:11 |
| jimmygoon | enan, what card, how is it unstable? | 05:11 |
| tuna | tux97: unless you never intend to save anything on the machine | 05:11 |
| bob__ | jrib: done | 05:11 |
| kee | bridged networking is in use on this machine. | 05:11 |
| ar0nic | anyone around? | 05:11 |
| nickrud | bluewraith: nope. Didn't get wireless until after networkmanager was released, I've always had success with that and never learned the command line stuff for wireless | 05:11 |
| tux97 | ok well might save a few things on here but not much i got a desktop running ubuntu as well | 05:11 |
| jrib | bob__: and now do you still receive the error? | 05:11 |
| adrian_2002ca | anyone know how i get to use avahi? | 05:11 |
| bob__ | jrib: I now get "Cannot open assembly program.exe" | 05:12 |
| jrib | bob__: write a helloworld in mono and test that | 05:12 |
| sarat_ | hi | 05:12 |
| bilbo | adrian_2002ca, sudo apt-get install avahi .. and then it just works | 05:12 |
| bluewraith | nickrud, ah, ok. i'm just blindly going anywhere with it right now. got an old laptop that i'm building up from server edition, but i only have a wifi card for it. no nic. | 05:12 |
| tritium | bob__: mono support is pretty offtopic. Can you take it elsewhere now please? | 05:12 |
| msingh | hmm is there a nice way to remount samba shares when the machine wakes up from hibernate/suspend | 05:12 |
| bob__ | jrib: just mono helloworld? | 05:12 |
| adrian_2002ca | cool thanks | 05:12 |

| IsotropicSpin_ | NETwizz, what I need to do is go in through telnet and change the settings for it to allow me to connect to it as a remote desktop | 05:18 |
| nickrud | Newbuntu2: add the word ndiswrapper by itself on a line in /etc/modules | 05:18 |

| IsotropicSpin_ | NETWIZZ.... what file do i edit once i connect via SSH? | 05:19 |
| NETWizz | @nickrud and Newbuntu2, don't use /etc/modules if you use nm-applet | 05:19 |
| nickrud | NETWizz: he just disabled it ;) | 05:19 |

| adrian_2002ca | can anyone tell me why avahi wont install? apt-get gives me E: Couldn't find package avahi | 05:19 |
| jrib | WorkingOnWise: ctrl-shift-u and then use unicode. To just get accents on an 'e' for example, you should setup dead keys (or "compose key"?) that you can configure in system -> preferences -> keyboard | 05:19 |
| NETWizz | post the package please adrian | 05:20 |
| bluewraith | sitting at the CLI, how do you scroll up? now I feel really silly. | 05:20 |

| nickrud | bluewraith: shift page-up | 05:20 |
| adrian_2002ca | huh? post package? | 05:20 |
| arrrghhh | Newbie, the easiest is "sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg" | 05:20 |
| Sascha|Vista | tritium: It needs to connect to a PPTP2 connection... | 05:21 |
| NETWizz | Newbie, dpkg -reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg | 05:21 |
| bluewraith | nickrud, thanks again. cant wait to get xorg up. haha | 05:21 |
| Newbie | I did that, and I still can't get it working. | 05:21 |
| NETWizz | lol arrrghhh got it | 05:21 |
| arrrghhh | Newbie, did you select the proper resolutions? | 05:21 |
| tritium | Sascha|Vista: I'm not familiar with what protocols it supports. | 05:21 |
| SkinnYPuppY | Can you make synaptic ignore a broken package? It wants to uninstall something I have a bit of config time in and understand the dep problem isn't an issue. | 05:21 |

| nickrud | bluewraith: work on the console for a week or two, you'll learn a lot. mutt and elinks and emacs , what more do you need ;) | 05:21 |
| NETWizz | You may try to remove and purge xserver-xorg then install ubuntu-desktop | 05:21 |
| Newbie | ........How? | 05:22 |
| Sascha|Vista | tritium: no worries, I've just seen it doesn't support PPTP for now... I'll look for a guide or something. Thanks | 05:22 |
| adrian_2002ca | NETWizz, what package do u want posted? | 05:22 |
| NETWizz | I want you to post your error, adrian | 05:22 |
| NETWizz | If it is a long error, use pastebin, so I don't get a stern talking too | 05:22 |
| nickrud | SkinnYPuppY: no. If you want to install anything else, you'll have to fix the breakage | 05:22 |

| tritium | adrian_2002ca: a bunch of libavahi packages should be installed by default | 05:24 |
| arrrghhh | adrian_2002ca, if you type "sudo apt-get install av" and then hit tab a couple of times you'll see what packages are avaliable from the repos you have enabled. | 05:24 |
| bluewraith | nickrud, i'm just amazed at how much google helps. :) | 05:24 |
| NETWizz | avahi-autoipd, avahi-daemon | 05:24 |
| SkinnYPuppY | nickrud: Thanks I was hoping to hear different since this is enter the code 30day cad/cam trialware | 05:24 |
| tritium | as well as the avahi-daemon | 05:24 |
| NETWizz | I have those installed and a dozen libraries | 05:24 |
| lwizardl | is there any program to backup a full partition in ubuntu? | 05:24 |
| NETWizz | I think the libraries will be sorted out by your package manager | 05:25 |

| arrrghhh | adrian_2002ca, or you can just search in synaptic, probably easier. | 05:25 |
| NETWizz | @lwizardl, try partimage | 05:25 |
| NETWizz | You will love it | 05:25 |
| Newbie | arrrghhh, can you help me fix my xorg.conf? I don't know how to remove it. | 05:25 |

| PurpZeY | tritium: I am following these instructions, one line I can't make heads or tails of insmod atl1 <parameter>=<value> What are parameter and value supposed to be? | 05:25 |
| NETWizz | I used partimage to backup a partition from a 100 GB ATA/133 | 05:25 |
| SkinnYPuppY | can apt-get ignore a broken package? | 05:25 |
| NETWizz | I put that image on a 200 GB SATA and the MBR | 05:25 |
| tritium | PurpZeY: depends on what that module is. I can't tell you. | 05:25 |
| adrian_2002ca | unfortunately i dont have autocomplete for argumens lol | 05:25 |
| NETWizz | I had to repair GRUB and FSTAB | 05:25 |
| NETWizz | but it booted | 05:26 |
| llama32 | brainstorm.ubuntu.com is the best thing i've seen since.. ubuntu 7.10 | 05:26 |
| arrrghhh | Newbie, just delete any xorg.conf's from /etc/X11/, do that dpkg-reconfigure and reboot. | 05:26 |
| tritium | PurpZeY: modinfo atl1, for some details on that module | 05:26 |
| NETWizz | Essentially, I ghosted my linux system with partimage | 05:26 |
| Newbuntu2 | is there a good tool to view and log wireless signal strength parameters? | 05:26 |
| NETWizz | You will want to try the system rescue cd | 05:26 |
| NETWizz | IT has partimage onit | 05:26 |
| arrrghhh | adrian_2002ca, what do you mean you don't have autocomplete? | 05:26 |
| tritium | PurpZeY: ideally, you shouldn't have to use any parameters at all. Try without. | 05:26 |
| Newbie | How can I do that if I have a blank screen? I can run code from the ctrl+alt+f3 menu | 05:26 |

| arrrghhh | vignesh, there's advanced settings, other than that there's an extra compiz package you have to install to really tweak it. | 05:34 |
| jimmygoon | Flannel, I'm looking for the p2p blocking/protection aspect... it doesn't look like dansguardian does that? | 05:34 |

| PurpZeY | tritium: Yessir. | 05:35 |
| NETWizz | to mount ntfs, you should just look into ntfs-3g for ubuntu | 05:35 |
| rch9975 | oh | 05:35 |
| Kousotu | 1gb | 05:35 |
| tritium | PurpZeY: is the module loaded? | 05:35 |
| NETWizz | you can probably mount it read only | 05:36 |
| adrian_2002ca | did u try different computer/psp | 05:36 |

| NETWizz | Regardless, you really need the ntfsutilities and ntfs-3g | 05:37 |
| rch9975 | something like that right? | 05:37 |

| nickrud | zcat[1]: you have to turn off nautilus drawing the desktop, it's done as a window overlaying the root window | 05:37 |
| tritium | PurpZeY: then all you need do is configure the interface. The module is loaded, and apparently working. | 05:37 |
| Kousotu | I formatted it like 5 times | 05:37 |
| scone | jimmygoon, I'll look around on the net a bit, see if i can't help | 05:37 |

| rch9975 | yeap... this is why i'm telling you that something wrong.. | 05:47 |
| Kousotu | li-plus: sorry, I use Ndis for an atheros card | 05:47 |

| nickrud | xTheGoat121x: lol, you are trying to ride some raggedy coattails ;) | 05:48 |
| NETWizz | hangon | 05:48 |
| scone | li-plus what are your troubles? | 05:48 |
| xTheGoat121x | nickrud, hahaha | 05:48 |
| rch9975 | Um | 05:48 |
| xTheGoat121x | nickrud, 'twas a thought. | 05:48 |
| Ziroday | rch9975: have you tried typing into a terminal "synaptic" | 05:48 |
| NETWizz | gksudo synaptic | 05:48 |
| NETWizz | Try that | 05:48 |
| zcat[1] | ok, desktop > gnome > background looks like the right thing, picture_filename is showing my current background image.. but unchecking that hasn't worked | 05:48 |
| rch9975 | gksudo synaptic... hold on | 05:48 |
| adrian_2002ca | Kousotu:, weird.... | 05:48 |
| adrian_2002ca | Kousotu:did u try different cables...? | 05:49 |
| Kousotu | adrian_2002ca: That's wha I was saying lol | 05:49 |
| Kousotu | adrian_2002ca: Have 2 sets | 05:49 |
| adrian_2002ca | lol | 05:49 |
| li-plus | scone: my wireless card is working according to iwconfig but not picking up any ssid's in roaming mode, nor connecting via manual mode | 05:49 |
| adrian_2002ca | call sony and spank them | 05:49 |
| zcat[1] | perhaps compiz is doing it.. | 05:49 |
| rch9975 | I typed that down but nothing happens | 05:49 |
| li-plus | scone: broadcom 4311 | 05:49 |
| Rayston | Hello guys | 05:49 |
| rch9975 | hi~ | 05:49 |
| NETWizz | sudo apt-get install synaptic ??? | 05:49 |
| Kousotu | adrian_2002ca: I kinda can't. installed M33 on the PSP lmao | 05:49 |
| Ziroday | rch9975: are there any errors? | 05:49 |
| nickrud | zcat[1]: no compiz here | 05:50 |
| rch9975 | It says nothing | 05:50 |
| arrrghhh | kee, pastebin your interfaces file. | 05:50 |
| rch9975 | just my ID | 05:50 |
| scone | li-plus, Ah i see I saw atheros mentioned and that's what I just got working. No experience with broadcoms | 05:50 |
| NETWizz | Are you running ubuntu? | 05:50 |
| Rayston | Getting Kernel Panic on an older machine while trying to install Ubuntu 7.10, more details here, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4518572#post4518572 | 05:50 |
| Lunks | Exaile is taking too much CPU for me. What mp3 player there is for Ubuntu which consumes something like foobar on windows? | 05:50 |
| adrian_2002ca | is it 3.90-2? | 05:50 |
| Ziroday | rch9975: can you please pastebin your terminal | 05:50 |
| NETWizz | uname -a | 05:50 |
| rch9975 | rch9975@handsomesexycharming:~$ sudo apt-get install synapti | 05:50 |
| rch9975 | rch9975@handsomesexycharming:~$ | 05:50 |
| zcat[1] | hmm .. can't find anything in the nautilus settings that looks like the rught setting. | 05:50 |
| rch9975 | Just like that | 05:50 |
| Kousotu | scone: I mentioned Atheros, and mine's working fine. | 05:50 |
| arrrghhh | Lunks, if you just want it to play music quite basic, xmms. | 05:50 |
| scone | Ah ok. | 05:50 |
| NETWizz | nice hostname | 05:50 |
| adrian_2002ca | Kousotu: did u try irshell by any chance...it might just be a fw bug | 05:50 |
| rch9975 | haha | 05:50 |
| li-plus | scone: I found a site where someone with same laptop + card have success | 05:50 |
| Ziroday | rch9975: okay, then try the command sudo apt-get install synaptic | 05:51 |
| tritium | rch9975: if you installed ubuntu, synaptic would be there by default. | 05:51 |
| rch9975 | That was one of my nickname from my friends | 05:51 |
| NETWizz | Anyway, you missed the c | 05:51 |
| arrrghhh | i love amarok, but it's not really "gnome"... rhythmbox is for gnome as well | 05:51 |
| NETWizz | synaptic | 05:51 |
| Lunks | arrrghhh, there's this mpd, i've heard of it | 05:51 |
| adrian_2002ca | Kousotu:also, try your VSH menu | 05:51 |
| jimmygoon | rch9975, nice computer name | 05:51 |
| adrian_2002ca | Kousotu: and your recovery | 05:51 |
| Lunks | arrrghhh, do u know about it? | 05:51 |
| zcat[1] | hey, I can have home, my computer, network, trash icons like some other popular os :) | 05:51 |
| scone | li-plus, And you followed the instructions and didn't get it to work yet? | 05:51 |
| arrrghhh | Lunks, never heard of mpd. | 05:51 |
| lwizardl | hey i'm using partimage what does file size "2057 MiB" ? does that mean 2GB files? | 05:51 |
| NETWizz | sudo apt-get install synaptic | 05:51 |
| Kousotu | adrian_2002ca: I did, all of the, tried opening FLASH, it didn't work | 05:51 |
| Gunn | hey i just downloaded my digital download copy of vista from there digital locker download area...how do i burn it to CD so its bootable ? | 05:51 |
| Ziroday | zcat[1]: on your desktop? | 05:51 |
| Lunks | lwizardl, yes, it is | 05:51 |
| adrian_2002ca | Kousotu: bummer | 05:51 |
| Gunn | (and yes its legal by the way) | 05:51 |
| arrrghhh | lwizardl, roughly | 05:51 |
| Lunks | Mi = 1024Ki | 05:52 |
| rch9975 | Well still it doesnt work T.T | 05:52 |
| lwizardl | Lunks, thought so thanks | 05:52 |
| rch9975 | okay | 05:52 |
| zcat[1] | yeah.. nautilus > desktop in gconf-editor | 05:52 |
| NETWizz | It should tell you that synaptic is already the newest version | 05:52 |
| Kousotu | adrian_2002ca: is there possibly another driver for the slim we might not have thought of? | 05:52 |
| rch9975 | At first time I tried like this | 05:52 |
| Lunks | lwizardl, i means that's x1024 instead of 1000. ;) | 05:52 |
| rch9975 | sudo mount /dev/sda1 | 05:52 |
| Ziroday | zcat[1]: try ubuntu-tweak at getdeb.net | 05:52 |
| adrian_2002ca | Kousotu: try playing around with device manager? | 05:52 |
| rch9975 | and it said that | 05:52 |
| Lunks | so it's 1024x1024x1024 | 05:52 |
| lwizardl | i'm trying to backup this hdd its 150.3GB of data | 05:52 |
| rch9975 | Only root can bla bla bla | 05:52 |
| NETWizz | Well then you should proabably re-install ubuntu | 05:52 |
| NETWizz | oh | 05:52 |
| NETWizz | sudo | 05:52 |
| rch9975 | OMG | 05:52 |
| NETWizz | or su | 05:52 |
| NETWizz | Try this | 05:52 |
| NETWizz | sudo -i | 05:52 |
| tritium | !enter | 05:52 |
| FloodBot1 | NETWizz: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 05:52 |
| ubotu | Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 05:52 |
| bullgard4 | Running 'speaker-test' produces a sound. But running 'beep' does not produce a sound on my Ubuntu 7.10 laptop computer. What is the reason for this misfeature? | 05:52 |
| zcat[1] | Ziroday: could do.. gconf-editor should let me change what I need to though | 05:53 |
| Gunn | hey i just downloaded my digital download copy of vista from there digital locker download area...how do i burn it to CD so its bootable ? | 05:53 |
| Kousotu | adrian_2002ca: I did, tried messing with Vista's, tried messing with Ubuntu's a bit (I don't wanna screw up Ubuntu also) | 05:53 |
| NETWizz | sudo -i will get you to the # | 05:53 |
| arrrghhh | bullgard4, what the heck are you talking about. "beep" is not a command. | 05:53 |
| NETWizz | then you don't need a million sudos | 05:53 |
| Ziroday | zcat[1]: yeah it will, but can't remember where its under sorry | 05:53 |
| rch9975 | i wrote down that... | 05:53 |
| arrrghhh | Gunn, is it an iso? | 05:53 |
| NETWizz | Just be carful not to stay at the # and think twice each time you execute something | 05:53 |
| Lunks | NETWizz, do u know the difference between sudo -s and sudo -i? | 05:53 |
| zcat[1] | Ziroday: I'll find it.. | 05:54 |
| Gunn | arrrghhh: yes it is | 05:54 |
| lwizardl | Gunn, if the download image is a bootable disc image then you just burn it | 05:54 |
| Kousotu | NETWizz: installinf the super user terminal would too | 05:54 |
| Lunks | NETWizz, and btw, ubuntu doesn't support it, you really should not help people with sudo -i. ;) | 05:54 |
| Gunn | lwizardl: any way to tell if its bootable? its an .ISO | 05:54 |
| bullgard4 | arrrghhh: "detlef@MD97600:~$ apropos beep; beep (1) - beep the pc speaker any number of ways." | 05:54 |
| arrrghhh | Gunn, just burn the image. don't put the .iso on the disc, there should be a selection to "burn image" | 05:54 |
| rch9975 | Um, well i typed down that, and just type mount /dev/sda1? | 05:54 |
| tritium | Lunks: incorrect | 05:54 |
| Ziroday | arrrghhh: you are incorrect beep is a command | 05:54 |
| Kousotu | Gunn: burn it using your prefered burning program | 05:54 |
| NETWizz | yes | 05:54 |
| Gunn | arrghhh: so just use the burn ISO feature and browse to it ? | 05:54 |
| arrrghhh | bullgard4, that means nothing to me. does sound work? | 05:54 |
| arrrghhh | Ziroday, not for me. | 05:54 |
| NETWizz | -i runs the .bashrc | 05:54 |
| Lunks | tritium, why is that so? =P | 05:54 |
| tritium | Lunks: ubuntu _does_ support sudo. | 05:55 |
| tritium | !sudo | Lunks | 05:55 |
| ubotu | Lunks: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. | 05:55 |
| Ziroday | arrrghhh: sudo apt-get install beep | 05:55 |
| rch9975 | OMG Again it said mount: only root can mount /dev/sda1 on /media/sda1 | 05:55 |
| NETWizz | Basically, the login script runs when you do -i | 05:55 |
| arrrghhh | Ziroday, well yea i guess if i installed it lol | 05:55 |
| Kousotu | Gunn: yes | 05:55 |
| Gunn | kousotu: thx | 05:55 |
| arrrghhh | rch9975, sudo! | 05:55 |
| Lunks | tritium, but not sudo -i | 05:55 |
| Kousotu | Gunn: no problem :) | 05:55 |
| adrian_2002ca | Kousotu: lol...kk...do u have usb 1 or 2? and your memstick...is it magick gate...also did u try the slim with other sticks? | 05:55 |
| rch9975 | um? | 05:55 |
| NETWizz | Did I get it right? | 05:55 |
| tritium | Lunks: yes, sudo -i | 05:55 |
| bullgard4 | arrrghhh: Please re-read the question that I put first: Running 'speaker-test' produces a sound." | 05:55 |
| nickrud | Lunks: all sudo. sudo -s is discouraged, though | 05:55 |
| rch9975 | I heard that if i typed sudo -i i dont need to type millions of that | 05:55 |
| tritium | Lunks: sudo -i is *much* preferred to enabling the root account and using su | 05:56 |
| Lunks | tritium, "NB Please don't use this to become root, please see the bottom of the page for some more information. " | 05:56 |
| NETWizz | what is wrong with sudo -s? | 05:56 |
| Kousotu | adrian_2002ca:I put my USB and His on the PSP, it didn't read, I loaded HIS stick (the SAME ONE FORM THE SLIM) on MY PSP and it read no problem | 05:56 |
| Kousotu | from* | 05:56 |
| rch9975 | I think the best way is reinstall it T.T | 05:56 |
| rch9975 | OMG | 05:56 |
| Lunks | 'sudo -i -u username' | 05:56 |
| arrrghhh | bullgard4, i saw that. so if sound works... why do you need beep to work? i'm assuming audio plays just fine? | 05:56 |
| nickrud | NETWizz: sudo -i reads root's bashrc iirc | 05:56 |
| NETWizz | ah | 05:56 |
| Lunks | NETWizz, tritium it's on Ubuntu Wiki, it should not be used | 05:56 |
| NETWizz | and sudo -s reads roots | 05:57 |
| rch9975 | Anyways!! Everybody~ Thank you sooooo much~ | 05:57 |
| NETWizz | sand sudo -s doesn't | 05:57 |
| tritium | Lunks: no, we encourage the use of sudo, including sudo -i | 05:57 |
| NETWizz | so you are still the current user | 05:57 |
| arrrghhh | rch9975, yea but it's *dangerous* | 05:57 |
| legend2440 | rch9975: sudo mount /dev/sdai /media/sda1 | 05:57 |
| rch9975 | um? dangerous lol.. | 05:57 |
| Lunks | NETWizz, tritium Please do not suggest this to others unless you personally are available 24/7 to support the user if they have issues as a result of running a shell as root. | 05:57 |
| NETWizz | sudo -i is nice because CD still takes you to your home | 05:57 |
| nickrud | NETWizz: yes, run each and then env in each, you'll see the diff | 05:57 |
| legend2440 | rch9975: sudo mount /dev/sda1 /media/sda1 | 05:57 |
| Lunks | From Ubuntu Wiki. :P | 05:57 |
| tritium | Lunks: you're misinterpreting | 05:57 |
| arrrghhh | rch9975, you can really screw a system up running commands as root and staying logged in as root. | 05:58 |
| NETWizz | else you end up in /root | 05:58 |
| rch9975 | legend2440 thx to help me out but i tried that , didnt work; | 05:58 |
| Lunks | tritium, methods below are sudo -i and sudo -s | 05:58 |
| NETWizz | nevermind | 05:58 |
| Lunks | 'please do not suggest others' | 05:58 |
| NETWizz | I retract that statement | 05:58 |
| damo22 | i need some advice... which mp3 player is most compatible with linux? | 05:58 |
| NETWizz | nothing wrong with a root prompt | 05:58 |
| NETWizz | Real men get real work done as root :-) | 05:58 |
| bullgard4 | arrrghhh: I can play audio from CDs. I can hear audio when playing a YouTube video. But when my GNOME terminal cursor approaches the beginning of a line, I will not hear a warning sound, for example. | 05:58 |
| rch9975 | this room has sooo many people @_@... Makes me confusing | 05:58 |
| Ziroday | damo22: nearly all are, what are you thinking of getting? | 05:58 |
| tritium | Lunks: again, we support sudo -i here. Please drop it. | 05:58 |
| Lunks | NETWizz, I do it, but you should not teach people. :P | 05:59 |
| arrrghhh | bullgard4, hrm. did you look at the prefs for gnome-terminal? | 05:59 |
| NETWizz | Yeah | 05:59 |
| NETWizz | I know | 05:59 |
| damo22 | Ziroday: dad wants one that has a tuner in it as well as playing podcasts | 05:59 |
| NETWizz | You are right | 05:59 |
| ninja | how do I change my computers name through terminal? | 05:59 |
| Lunks | lol | 05:59 |
| Lunks | just trying to help. ;P | 05:59 |
| NETWizz | sudo at least causes them to think things through twice though most commands they run as root are what others tell them to run | 05:59 |
| rch9975 | You guys are so nice, some korean doenst know what manner is :D | 05:59 |
| Lunks | and conform to some kind of standards. | 05:59 |
| Rayston | Installing on older machine, getting Kernel panic -not syncing: Attempted to kill the idle task! right after I hit Install in text mode from first ubuntu screen | 05:59 |
| NETWizz | I could suggest they use my favorite two letter command rm | 05:59 |
| arrrghhh | rch9975, i've heard that before. | 05:59 |
| tritium | Lunks: the wiki can be edited so as to not reflect policy. | 05:59 |
| NETWizz | With some arguments like -rf and perhaps a / | 05:59 |
| Ziroday | damo22: erm well the best method ususally is to find the one you like and then google its compatibility compared to the other way around, however most work absolutely fine | 06:00 |
| rch9975 | Yeap, They only like to be faster and faster | 06:00 |
| nickrud | tritium: didn't you think this subject would go away, eventually :) | 06:00 |
| Kousotu | NETWizz: Yes, but Sudo -i helps those who know what they're doing to get everything done without needed to enter sudo ... all the time | 06:00 |
| tritium | nickrud: I wish | 06:00 |
| JanPeter | Hey, does anyone have any links for a good ubuntu beginners guide? | 06:00 |
| zcat[1] | NETWizz: not in here you can't :) | 06:00 |
| NETWizz | yeah I won't | 06:00 |
| damo22 | Ziroday: can an ipod play podcasts? | 06:00 |
| NETWizz | That would be terrible if someone ran that | 06:00 |
| rch9975 | Anyways everybody thank you~ i have to go bad | 06:00 |
| arrrghhh | damo22, uh... why wouldn't it? | 06:00 |
| PurpZeY | JanPeter: There is an really thorough collection of wiki articles. | 06:00 |
| NETWizz | ONe of my friends ran that on my box | 06:00 |
| Lunks | NETWizz, people tend to solve most problems by running stuff on a root shell. Sometimes they're not ready. ;P | 06:00 |
| rch9975 | it is like 02:00 Am | 06:00 |
| Ziroday | JanPeter: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Gutsy | 06:00 |
| rch9975 | Good night :D | 06:00 |
| NETWizz | I set him up with an account and he ran that command | 06:00 |
| NETWizz | as himself | 06:01 |
| JanPeter | thanks!! | 06:01 |
| NETWizz | It deleted all his stuff | 06:01 |
| NETWizz | he wasn't root | 06:01 |
| Lunks | hahah | 06:01 |
| damo22 | do any ipods have a radio tuner | 06:01 |
| Ziroday | damo22: yes, however I am not certain as to linux'es ability to transfer the files across | 06:01 |
| bullgard4 | arrrghhh: Yes I did. And I filled in the relevant GNOME terminal configuration dialog line small box. | 06:01 |
| NETWizz | Yeah, it sucks I know | 06:01 |
| Hor|zon | hey which macbook do you guys think looks better? white or black? | 06:01 |
| Ziroday | damo22: yes you can buy a radio tuner addon for ipods | 06:01 |
| Kousotu | adrian_2002ca: any ideas at all? | 06:01 |
| NETWizz | I have entire days and even weeks when I don't login as root | 06:01 |
| Lunks | NETWizz, I believe this is not the root of all evils, doing and rm -rf on a root shell. Instead, get used to it as the 'Administrator' account on Windows. | 06:01 |
| adrian_2002ca | Kousotu: it may have something to do with the charging fucntion?? your problem doesnt seem to happen a lot... | 06:01 |
| NETWizz | I only login as root to install and repair stuff | 06:02 |
| tritium | nickrud: !enter continues to be a chronic problem | 06:02 |
| adrian_2002ca | Kousotu: i was searching the netr | 06:02 |
| NETWizz | LOL | 06:02 |
| Ziroday | Hor|zon: not the best place to ask, try #ubuntu-offtopic | 06:02 |
| Kousotu | adrian_2002ca: I shut that off, both in recov and out of it | 06:02 |
| zcat[1] | Ziroday: last time I had access to an IPOD I just plugged it in.. it synced with the music player, and otherwise appeard as an external drive. | 06:02 |
| NETWizz | Yeah that is dumb too | 06:02 |
| NETWizz | Even vista is silly | 06:02 |
| Kousotu | adrian_2002ca: oh,thanks :) | 06:02 |
| Lunks | NETWizz, yeah, pain in the ass to do lots of sudos. ;P | 06:02 |
| nickrud | tritium: and offtopic, you ops have ruined off topic for me | 06:02 |
| NETWizz | It is like, "Confirm" or "Deny" | 06:02 |
| NETWizz | What is the point? | 06:02 |
| NETWizz | Youy don't even need a password to confirm | 06:02 |
| Ziroday | NETWizz: please dont use enter as puctuation | 06:02 |
| Lunks | lol never used vista. ;P | 06:02 |
| tritium | NETWizz: please, please, please, please, please, please !enter | 06:03 |
| damo22 | what is the equivalent of itunes for linux? | 06:03 |
| jedwards | #join cabdrivers | 06:03 |
| zcat[1] | NETWizz: confirm or deny to most users is "do what you just asked" or "don't do what you asked" -- Duh, they're always going to click confirm! | 06:03 |
| Kousotu | Lunks: VIsta is a joke, and not worth using, seriously | 06:03 |
| adrian_2002ca | np...hope i was more helpful...:)... | 06:03 |
| Ziroday | damo22: rythmbox, amarok, gtkpod, banshee | 06:03 |
| NETWizz | May as well just turn off UAC then | 06:03 |
| arrrghhh | damo22, there's a ton. amarok, rhythmbox, exaile, songbird... | 06:03 |
| icesword | Kousotu, hmm | 06:03 |
| Hor|zon | Ziroday, okey doki | 06:03 |
| Kousotu | icesword: What? | 06:03 |
| NETWizz | I even ran itunes on linux | 06:03 |
| tritium | nickrud: good night. | 06:04 |
| NETWizz | Technically it was run in WINE | 06:04 |
| icesword | Kousotu, nothing | 06:04 |
| nickrud | NETWizz: reducing enter is about reducing scroll in the channel, when there's several help threads going at once it really hurts | 06:04 |
| nickrud | tritium: see you later | 06:04 |
| arrrghhh | damo22, amarok is my personal fav. you should just see what you like. | 06:04 |
| Kousotu | icesword: why bother saying my name then? | 06:04 |
| zcat[1] | vista really is more secure than XP, but it sucks for so many other reasons.. | 06:04 |
| nickrud | !windows | all | 06:04 |
| ubotu | all: For discussion and help with Microsoft Windows, please visit ##windows. See http://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bug/1 http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm and /msg ubotu equivalents | 06:04 |
| zcat[1] | and being more secure than XP is not exactly a high achievement! | 06:04 |
| Ziroday | nickrud: thank you | 06:04 |
| Kousotu | zcat[1]: like.. functionality for instance | 06:04 |
| legend2440 | !vista | 06:05 |
| ubotu | vista is the new 'operating system' by the evil overlords from Redmond. For more information, see http://www.badvista.org and !windows | 06:05 |
| arrrghhh | zcat[1], they didn't restructure their root access for everyone... just put "security layers". that's not secure, that's stupid. sorry, no more off-topic from me. | 06:05 |
| damo22 | amarok can sync to ipod? | 06:05 |
| Ziroday | damo22: yes | 06:05 |
| arrrghhh | lmao! that's awesome. | 06:05 |
| damo22 | cool | 06:05 |
| NETWizz | @zcat, yeah it is users now login as Administrator with confirmation instead of a limited user and prompt for elevated credentials | 06:05 |
| arrrghhh | damo22, i have high hopes for songbird, but it's still beta. | 06:05 |
| zcat[1] | anyhow, we're going to get an !ot soon :) | 06:05 |

| suxxor | how can i change the permission of htdocs to write ,delete , save , rename files ? | 06:06 |
| nickrud | damo22: the really new ones, the video ipods and 3d gen nano have issues | 06:06 |
| NETWizz | In other words, Microsoft still got it wrong. They should not allow you to login to the GUI as an Administrator without giving you warnings then offer Run AS Administrator on everything | 06:06 |
| Kousotu | NETWizz: how do you use another account's credentials? like if I was on a non-sudoer account, but I needed to sudo | 06:06 |
| adrian_2002ca | Kousotu, http://www.psp-vault.com/module-pnForum-viewtopic-topic-9.psp i know u know it but maybe u missed something? | 06:06 |
| Ziroday | !offtopic | NETWizz | 06:06 |

| damo22 | nickrud: which mp3 player do you suggest for radio tuner + podcast in linux | 06:07 |
| Kousotu | so like su kousotu? | 06:07 |
| Ziroday | NETWizz: please address who you are talking to | 06:07 |
| nickrud | damo22: I have a 3d gen nano, I like them :) | 06:07 |
| arrrghhh | damo22, creative labs makes nice ones. but this is off-topic. | 06:07 |
| arrrghhh | nickrud, no raiod tuner. | 06:07 |
| arrrghhh | radio | 06:07 |
| xTheGoat121x | nickrud, night! TTYS, hopefully | 06:07 |
| damo22 | ok | 06:07 |
| nickrud | xTheGoat121x: see you around | 06:08 |
| Kousotu | NETWizz: so like su kousotu? | 06:08 |
| NETWizz | damo22, I bought a Creative Zen Vision M and use Gnomad2 in Ubuntu to Sync it | 06:08 |
| NETWizz | Kousoto, exactly | 06:08 |
| damo22 | NETWizz: cool thanks | 06:08 |
| Kousotu | NETWizz: ok, thanks, that will come in handy later on the pc I do support for | 06:08 |
| Kousotu | adrian_2002ca: That link still has not loaded | 06:09 |
| NETWizz | damo22: the Zen is like a more open iPod. It seems to support more formats | 06:09 |
| damo22 | cool | 06:09 |

| firan45 | lagi BTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT | 06:09 |
| Vignesh | Hi guys | 06:09 |
| NETWizz | Moreover, Gnomad2 resembles an FTP client and has no ads or annoyances like the creative windows program. It also syncs faster than the software for Windows does! | 06:10 |
| adrian_2002ca | Kousotu, search google: "psp problem pc connect" and click on the first two results | 06:10 |
| Vignesh | Any one using Dataone (BSNL) broadband connection | 06:10 |
| arrrghhh | suxxor, "sudo chmod <permissions> <options> <files/folders>" i recommend you read the man page for chmod. | 06:10 |
| Kousotu | adrian_2002ca: I did all of that (it loaded finally) but it says "plese wait" on the slim | 06:10 |
| arrrghhh | NETWizz, is gnomad for the zen only? | 06:10 |
| dave11 | !usb | 06:11 |

| adrian_2002ca | well....wait lol | 06:11 |
| NETWizz | Damo22, install Audio Tag Tool as well to fix any MP3 ID3 Tags before you dump stuff to your player | 06:11 |
| NETWizz | arrrghhh: No also works with my friends Dell Ditty | 06:11 |
| Daisuke_Ido | err | 06:11 |
| pnukeid | helo there | 06:11 |
| Daisuke_Ido | i have to recommend easytag | 06:11 |
| bullgard4 | Running 'speaker-test' produces a sound. But running 'beep' does not produce a sound on my Ubuntu 7.10 laptop computer. What is the reason for this misfeature? | 06:12 |
| Kousotu | adrian_2002ca: ok, will do :) | 06:12 |
| arrrghhh | fark 2am. i'm off to bed. | 06:12 |
| arrrghhh | cya kids | 06:12 |
| NETWizz | It works with a specific almost standard MP3 Player sync protocol, but I can't remember the name of the protocol it works with | 06:12 |
| adrian_2002ca | Kousotu, you have to wait for the windows to install the driver | 06:12 |
| Vignesh | i need ur help for setting up dataone broadband connection ... can any one help?? | 06:12 |
| nickrud | easytag is pretty good, once you get used to it's interface | 06:12 |
| Kousotu | bullgard4: beep is a system sound, it does not always play | 06:12 |
| adrian_2002ca | Kousotu, also, if it takes forever, try resetting ur usb settings from tecovery and xmb | 06:12 |
| Kousotu | adrian_2002ca: you're forgetting something: I waited over 6 hours, plus, it's linux, not windows | 06:13 |
| adrian_2002ca | lawl | 06:13 |
| the7thmagus | if anyone can please take this: why can't I record audio (in Audacity and Jokosher) while running any other software that uses audio? | 06:13 |
| NETWizz | What driver are you referring too? | 06:13 |
| damo22 | zen vision W or M ? | 06:13 |
| adrian_2002ca | Kousot, as i said, maybe ur recovery functions are messing it?> | 06:13 |
| blas_ | hola | 06:13 |
| blas_ | genets | 06:13 |
| adrian_2002ca | as for linux... | 06:13 |
| adrian_2002ca | hmm | 06:13 |
| NETWizz | the7thmagus, the device for OSS is busy | 06:13 |
| pnukeid | i am trying installing mysql 5.1 from source but iam always error in command mysql_install_db | 06:14 |
| Kousotu | adrian_2002ca: I don't see how, because I reciently reflashed the slim and changed nothing | 06:14 |
| NETWizz | View > Preferences in Audacity | 06:14 |
| the7thmagus | Netwizz, is there any way that I can make it so I can run more than 1 program running OSS? | 06:14 |
| adrian_2002ca | Kousotu, that only makes sense.....hmm | 06:14 |
| NETWizz | Your recording device is /dev/dsp | 06:14 |
| nickrud | pnukeid: try /j #mysql for help with compiling it | 06:14 |
| NETWizz | You may just try changing the Recording Device to the ALSA device and trying again | 06:14 |
| adrian_2002ca | Kousotu, try enabling usb from recovery maybe? | 06:14 |
| bluefox83 | i have a rogue window that wont go away, how do i kill it? | 06:15 |
| Kousotu | adrian_2002ca: I did that too | 06:15 |
| the7thmagus | Netwizz, will do | 06:15 |
| nickrud | bluefox83: try alt-f2 xkill , and click the window | 06:15 |
| NETWizz | It may not work at all, but it often does help | 06:15 |
| bluefox83 | i've tried the killall and kill | 06:15 |
| Tixer | How can I create a secondary X11 display, and have a certain program always go to that display? | 06:15 |
| adrian_2002ca | well its obviously not on the psp software side | 06:15 |
| Kousotu | adrian_2002ca: and I also tried to open flash0, flash1, UMD | 06:15 |
| NETWizz | I have never done it, but I have heard about people creating multiple OSS /dev/ entries | 06:15 |
| Kousotu | maybe I can use th fat's prx on the slim? | 06:16 |
| Kousotu | oh wait, nvm | 06:16 |
| Daisuke_Ido | Tixer, wouldn't it be easier just to open your image viewer set to the secret folder on another desktop? | 06:16 |
| Daisuke_Ido | virtual desktop, that is | 06:16 |
| Kousotu | that would require being able to open the flash on the slim | 06:16 |
| Kousotu | {L}âUghîñ Ôut £òU{Ð} | 06:16 |
| Tixer | Daisuke_Ido: >.> | 06:16 |
| NETWizz | the7thmagus, find lame.so too :-) so you can make MP3's :-) | 06:16 |
| adrian_2002ca | Kousotu, as i said, its not the psp software..i think | 06:16 |
| bluefox83 | nickrud, you totally just helped me figure out two things at the same time, i had been trying to launch that run application thingy for ages! | 06:16 |
| Tixer | Daisuke_Ido: I want to have a virtual machine always display on a second display, so I can create multiple "desktops" with one server | 06:16 |
| Daisuke_Ido | Tixer, i'm just teasing you, but realistically, would a virtual desktop work? there's also xephyr | 06:17 |
| nickrud | bluefox83: glad to be of assistance ;p | 06:17 |
| adrian_2002ca | Kousotu, my ubuntu just "gets" my phat | 06:17 |
| Kousotu | adrian_2002ca: I agree, but I don't know what it could be, that's the problem | 06:17 |
| bullgard4 | Kousotu: But this state of affairs is unsatisfactory. There is a small box in the Gnome terminal default profile called 'Terminal Bell' I filled it in but this does not produce a sound. So this feature is in error. | 06:17 |
| === stefano_ is now known as stefano-gone | ||
| adrian_2002ca | Kousotu, its instantaneous | 06:17 |
| Daisuke_Ido | Tixer, but i've never used xephyr, so i can't say for certain how it would work out for you | 06:17 |
| bluefox83 | nickrud, you wouldn't happen to know how to format an ipod nano would you? >.> | 06:17 |
| adrian_2002ca | Kousotu, maybe it needs a different FAT format?? | 06:17 |
| patbam | anyone know have some tips on how to learn to write gnome applets with python? | 06:17 |
| patbam | most of hte tutorials i've found seem old (2004) | 06:17 |
| bluefox83 | nickrud, one that's already fat32 | 06:18 |
| Kousotu | adrian_2002ca: my fat and another fat have 0 issues as well, with the same stick | 06:18 |
| suspect | anyone use virtualbox? | 06:18 |
| adrian_2002ca | true...so its not on the ubuntu software side/// | 06:18 |
| * bluefox83 might have to log into vista D: | 06:18 | |
| adrian_2002ca | Kousotu, this only leaves hardware | 06:18 |
| adrian_2002ca | Kousotu, either computer or psp | 06:18 |
| * NETWizz thinks you should use mkfs.vfat to format that mem stick | 06:18 | |
| Kousotu | adrian_2002ca: but it worked on the MCE so it can't e that either | 06:18 |
| adrian_2002ca | Kousotu, also it leaves low-level software | 06:18 |
| suspect | anyone use virtualbox? | 06:19 |
| NETWizz | I use it | 06:19 |
| adrian_2002ca | Kousotu, try using your MCE driver into xp??? | 06:19 |
| adrian_2002ca | Kousotu, would be worth a try? | 06:19 |
| Kousotu | adrian_2002ca: not my MCE, it's my brother's | 06:19 |
| Karsyth | can anyone help me install wine-doors? i have the .deb package and i have NO idea how to install it properly | 06:19 |
| Kousotu | adrian_2002ca: and he's not a friendly kind of person, unfortunatly | 06:19 |
| adrian_2002ca | Kousotu, just ask him to send you 1 file lol | 06:20 |
| suspect | do you know how to uninstall the os that i have in it | 06:20 |
| Kousotu | adrian_2002ca: That would require me knowing it | 06:20 |
| NETWizz | Yes | 06:20 |
| adrian_2002ca | well thats not har | 06:20 |
| adrian_2002ca | d | 06:20 |
| bluewraith | anyone know how to reset the keyboard layout on server edition? I cant use the ~/` key or '.... guess i hit the wrong key during setup. | 06:20 |
| NETWizz | Select the Virtual Box Machine then Machine > Delete | 06:20 |
| NETWizz | It will completely remove the Virtual Machine | 06:20 |
| Kousotu | adrian_2002ca: I'm on XP home right now, my fat can read his stick | 06:20 |
| Kousotu | and my PC can read my PSP with his stick in it | 06:21 |
| suspect | that deletes the whole thing? even the formating it did? | 06:21 |
| adrian_2002ca | i realise, but it cant read the slim | 06:21 |
| adrian_2002ca | with the stick in it | 06:21 |
| NETWizz | Yes, that deletes the whole thing | 06:21 |
| Kousotu | with any stick in | 06:21 |
| Kousotu | that's what puzzles me | 06:21 |
| Kousotu | but... | 06:21 |
| Kousotu | I think the live CD read it without a probelm | 06:22 |
| adrian_2002ca | Kousotu, obviouly the psp slim hardware/maybe software is different | 06:22 |
| suspect | ok, cool. i hate freaking windows. i just tried virtualbox so i could play phantasmagoria and myst | 06:22 |
| NETWizz | Cool did you install XP? | 06:22 |
| Kousotu | I remember something about that happening | 06:22 |
| adrian_2002ca | Kousotu, HUHHUH?? | 06:22 |
| Karsyth | can anyone tell me how to install .deb packages? | 06:22 |
| adrian_2002ca | Kousotu, whell thats news | 06:22 |
| Kousotu | adrian_2002ca: I swear lol | 06:22 |
| suspect | yeah | 06:22 |
| Rauhmaru | hello | 06:22 |
| NETWizz | Karsyth dpkg to install them or double-click and the gdebbi package manager will walk you through it | 06:22 |
| adrian_2002ca | Kousotu, lol...well insert a live one and see whats up??? | 06:22 |
| suspect | i got the games to work, but hate using xp. | 06:22 |
| Karsyth | thanks | 06:23 |
| Kousotu | adrian_2002ca: I was like.. wtf? how does that read and not my fully customised one not | 06:23 |
| Kousotu | adrian_2002ca: problem with that, I don't have the slime with me :P | 06:23 |
| adrian_2002ca | Kousotu, maybe drivers? again.. | 06:23 |
| adrian_2002ca | :D | 06:23 |
| suspect | windows is so touchy and overbearing | 06:23 |
| adrian_2002ca | l>:o | 06:23 |
| NETWizz | Try StreamTuner, it i is incredible! | 06:23 |
| Kousotu | adrian_2002ca: but the live CD installesall the drivers it uses on an install by defualt, doesn't it? | 06:23 |
| suspect | no | 06:24 |
| Kousotu | suspect: for the most part, yes | 06:24 |
| NETWizz | I found my favorite AM Talk Show on a ShoutCast Stream within StreamTuner | 06:24 |
| suspect | what is streamtuner? a internet radio deal? | 06:25 |
| NETWizz | Yes | 06:25 |
| adrian_2002ca | Kousotu, this goes back to when i was first looking at linux redhat a couple of years ago: you can run a live cd but when you go to install you have to say what hardware you're on...sooo...its entirely possible that the answer is maybe not | 06:25 |
| NETWizz | It is an opensource aggregate stream tuner | 06:25 |
| suspect | ok, cool | 06:25 |
| NETWizz | Shoutcast, live 365, local, google stations, basic.ch, punkcast, Xiph | 06:26 |
| Kousotu | adrian_2002ca: then I need to find what driver the liv CD uses, don't I? | 06:26 |
| bullgard4 | English help wanted. What are the English names of the GNOME terminal menu items? Are they 'File', 'Edit', 'View', 'Terminal' 'Tab' and 'Help', or what are their exact English names? | 06:26 |
| adrian_2002ca | Kousotu, yep and compare to yours if you have it | 06:26 |
| suspect | no, you need to find out what driver you need | 06:26 |
| NETWizz | I love its search, you can find any band or any radio station in the country almost on it | 06:26 |
| adrian_2002ca | suspect, yea, but we know he needs a generic mass storage driver | 06:27 |
| Kousotu | adrian_2002ca: well, the chance I don't have it is slim | 06:27 |
| Kousotu | adrian_2002ca: I have TONS of things on my linux install | 06:27 |
| suspect | oh, well then | 06:27 |
| adrian_2002ca | Kousotu, i know, but worth a check(i expect you have it...it would b weird not to) | 06:27 |
| suspect | i dont know why so many people have a hard time getting linux set up. its not hard | 06:27 |
| neville_ | I mean | 06:27 |
| neville_ | I just got my | 06:27 |
| neville_ | Lucent Winmodem working in Linux | 06:27 |
| neville_ | :P | 06:28 |
| neville_ | How's that for hard? :P | 06:28 |
| adrian_2002ca | suspect, its not installing and set up as much as finding EVERY cool thing about it | 06:28 |
| Kousotu | suspect: my Linux is 100% fine, baring this ONE MINOR problem | 06:28 |
| suspect | oh i see | 06:28 |

| adrian_2002ca | Kousotu, me neither...thats one weird problem... | 06:30 |

| Kousotu | suspect: what bootloader? | 06:31 |
| Kousotu | adrian_2002ca: yes, but I know that isn't the case, as it's been worked on, and opened on MCE | 06:32 |
| suspect | i downloaded one off of the net | 06:32 |
| noodles12 | my startup shows things twice. like "loading modules" or "starting drivers" why is that? | 06:32 |
| suspect | hold on ill check what its called | 06:33 |
| Kousotu | noodles12: I have about 12 PCI errors, it happens | 06:33 |
| Kousotu | noodles12: as long as it works, ignore it | 06:33 |
| adrian_2002ca | Kousotu, lol thats the pissy part....how about timing...were all these diagnostics run at the same time? if they weren't then our assumptions may be wrong... | 06:33 |
| foibles | hi there | 06:33 |
| NewLinuxNut | Welcome | 06:33 |
| foibles | a partition of mine won't seem to mount when i boot up | 06:33 |
| Kousotu | adrian_2002ca: please explain? | 06:33 |
| foibles | wait, hold on | 06:33 |
| foibles | redundant statements | 06:34 |
| Kousotu | adrian_2002ca: do you mean, did I put it on all of them at the same basic time? | 06:34 |
| suspect | you can download a linux distro that is called uClinux that has the bootloader that works with the psp | 06:34 |
| Kousotu | or with the same firmware/stick settig and etc. the same | 06:35 |
| adrian_2002ca | Kousotu, whell i asked about what you did and you told me different things that worked and didnt work...but if these things were not done at the same time(same hour/day--without changing anything) then you may assume that it works a certain way when in fact things changed since the last try | 06:35 |
| Kousotu | suspect: a PSP linux that actually works? | 06:35 |
| suspect | but i wanted to use puppylinux instead | 06:35 |
| suspect | yeah | 06:35 |
| adrian_2002ca | suspect, did you get anything working....ull be my god if u did lol | 06:36 |
| suspect | yes it works. ive seen it in action. doesnt do much, but it works | 06:36 |
| Kousotu | adrian_2002ca: spread over 2 days, different settings (the live one is te settings now) | 06:36 |
| suspect | yeah, i got linux on there, im just having a problem with the bootloader | 06:36 |
| Kousotu | suspect: grub? | 06:37 |
| suspect | you cant use grub | 06:37 |
| adrian_2002ca | Kousotu, try doing some control tests without changing anything but one thing at a time...i dunno what else to say | 06:37 |
| suspect | its called something else | 06:37 |

| Kousotu | icesword: who are you talking to? | 06:41 |
| adrian_2002ca | later doods...2:41am here in toronto | 06:41 |
| Kousotu | adrian_2002ca: 1:40 in Indiana :P | 06:41 |
| icesword | Kousotu, {L}釻gh铖 評t ｒU{衹,what is this | 06:41 |
| adrian_2002ca | ;-) | 06:42 |
| Kousotu | icesword: it's a trigger command made by my Mirc, ignore it | 06:42 |
| smacky | i created a new user account so that all my visual themes like compiz, themes and graphics are toned down, so watching vids is easier, but the problem is i dont hear audio from the videos but i hear audio logging in and out | 06:43 |
| Kousotu | smacky: make sure it uses alsa, and not oss | 06:43 |
| smacky | Kousotu, it is using alsa | 06:43 |
| === Xcode is now known as Franky | ||
| Kousotu | smacky: if that is not the case, make sure you have surround turned up | 06:43 |
| smacky | Kousotu, when i hit test it comes up with a weird error saying a bunch of things and then says device may be in use by another process | 06:43 |
| bluewraith | would the command sudo wpa_supplicant -w -Dwext -iwlan0 -c/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -dd ever end? seems like it just keeps going and going... but no errors that i can see. | 06:44 |
| icesword | Kousotu, like you are on win? | 06:44 |
| smacky | Kousotu, in totem and vlc i dont even have the option to turn up the volume... | 06:44 |
| Kousotu | smacky: hm.. that seems very odd, are you sure you logged out of the other account? | 06:44 |
| Kousotu | icesword: I am on windows at this moment, yes. I am doing ideo things | 06:45 |
| Kousotu | video* | 06:45 |
| smacky | Kousotu, yes i rebooted, and i know its not a codec issue i tried the ogg sample in home but still no sound, but when i log into this new account i get the login sound | 06:45 |
| bassinboylp | for a file server, would you go reiser or ext3? | 06:46 |
| Kousotu | smacky: what about the old account? | 06:46 |
| smacky | Kousotu, works fine, i just dont like because of all the visual effects make it have a low frame rate for video | 06:47 |
| icesword | !reiserfs | 06:47 |
| ubotu | reiserfs is a journalling file system, which outperforms many others on I/O operations, but has drawbacks (such as increasing likelihood of data loss, and introducing latency unsuitable for gaming or real-time audio). Using !ext3, the default on Ubuntu, is *highly* recommended. A read-only Windows driver is available at http://p-nand-q.com/download/rfstool.html | 06:47 |
| bassinboylp | icesword: THANKS | 06:47 |
| smacky | Kousotu, but i like the effects, so i would like 1 account for vids, 1 account for everything else... just no idea why sound isnt working properly in this account | 06:47 |
| Kousotu | smacky: you use compiz? | 06:48 |
| smacky | Kousotu, yes, and awn, and screenlets, and custom themes... | 06:48 |
| smacky | Kousotu, pretty much all the fancy eye candy is dragging down my vids, but i like them a lot... | 06:49 |
| ChevronX | Is there a DVD Decrypter software for linux? | 06:49 |
| Kousotu | smacky: I don't know all of that stuff. but anyway.. why not change your appearance effects to "none" when watching vids? and then change it back to "custom" afterward? | 06:49 |
| Kousotu | ChevronX: for? | 06:49 |
| zcat[1] | if you have a good 3d card the compiz effects don't really affect video at all | 06:49 |
| ChevronX | Ripping vob files off a DVD onto HDD | 06:49 |

| [chr0n0s] | hi, i am getting this error in rhythmbox --> playback error "resource busy or not available", so how do i disable sound card and enable it again, so that resources are free | 06:50 |
| smacky | Kousotu, too much work, plus that doesnt disable compiz... so framerate still wont be as high, i think it easier to just switch user | 06:50 |
| Kousotu | zcat[1]: I have a lousy 3D card, and it doesn't hit me that bad either | 06:50 |
| [chr0n0s] | zcat[1], they do, i have a decent enough ati card, video playback still sucks | 06:50 |
| ChevronX | Does K9 Copy rip DVDs to HDD? | 06:50 |
| Kousotu | [chr0n0s]: not to start a riot, but ati scks | 06:51 |
| [chr0n0s] | Kousotu, i agree | 06:51 |
| zuzma | what the hell I love ati :V | 06:51 |
| zcat[1] | I've used a fairly old nvidia card on a 1.1GHz computer and it still had no problem playing video while I rotated the cube around. | 06:51 |
| Kousotu | sucks* | 06:51 |
| zuzma | yeah their drivers are terrible.. | 06:51 |
| ChevronX | sif | 06:51 |
| [chr0n0s] | zuzma, the new drivers are much better tho | 06:51 |
| zcat[1] | fairly old = mx440 chipset | 06:51 |
| ChevronX | ye Ubuntu Hardy detected and installed drivers for my 2900XT | 06:52 |

| Kousotu | (I WISH!) | 06:54 |
| Kousotu | ChevronX: they SHOULD be region free | 06:54 |
| zcat[1] | ChevronX: dvdcss2 automatically works that way.. it decrypts CSS and just ignores all the region stuff | 06:54 |

| lost2008 | ok so this is what happens, I go onto Myspace.com and type in my login information and as soon as I click "Login" it kicks me out and the whole window closes | 07:03 |
| [chr0n0s] | lost2008, you mean the browser crashes? | 07:03 |
| Aprilis | zcat[1]: How often does it crash and would it pick up where I left off before crashing or would I have to start over? | 07:03 |
| lost2008 | yes | 07:04 |
| zcat[1] | lost2008: that's a problem? myspace sucks anyhow.. | 07:04 |

| zcat[1] | Aprilis: no, just save fairly often so you don't lose too much. Not sure, it might be a lot better now. Been a while since I last did and editing | 07:04 |
| artenius | use firefox | 07:04 |
| artenius | works fine on myspace for me | 07:05 |
| [chr0n0s] | lost2008, true, use firefox | 07:05 |
| lost2008 | k lemme try on firefox, one sec | 07:05 |

| SkinnYPuppY | Do 6.06 and 7.10 treat ext3 partitions differently? I'm trying to access 7.10's home folder from 6.06 | 07:05 |

| Aprilis | Yeah, Windows Movie Maker crashed all the time from what I remember. I just want a program that won't crash and is simple to use (but not crappy). | 07:05 |
| zcat[1] | fwiw myspace never crashed firefox here either, although I usually try to avoid it.. | 07:05 |
| [chr0n0s] | how do i free resources of my soundcard?, something like disabling and enabling it again, like in windows | 07:06 |
| lost2008 | firefox just crashed | 07:06 |
| [chr0n0s] | lost2008, you are using windows? | 07:06 |

| Harde | Hello, I need some help with display driver on Ubuntu Gutsy | 07:32 |
| pakmei | darkscript: put exit 0 in the init script | 07:32 |
| Parsec300 | Harde what card do you have? | 07:32 |
| Harde | It says : ATI Technologies Inc, RV350 AS [Radeon 9550] | 07:32 |
| Harde | This is an old machine | 07:33 |
| Parsec300 | What do you need, Harde? | 07:33 |
| darkscript | init script? | 07:33 |
| darkscript | what init script? | 07:33 |
| Harde | I can only operate at low resolution level | 07:33 |
| Parsec300 | Do you have the proprietary ATi driver installed? | 07:34 |
| darkscript | pakmei what are the init scripts..where are they. I can figure out the rest from there. thanks for the help too | 07:34 |
| Harde | And when I choose ATI-driver from Display-menu, it goes black | 07:34 |
| [[thufir]] | Kousotu: what wouuld make the uubuntu live cd fail wheere the fedora cdd works? | 07:34 |
| Harde | I guess I need some info about propietary ATI-drivers.. | 07:34 |
| pakmei | darkscript: there's a script in /etc/init.d/ that controls this ircd daemon. The deb package tries to run it as part of its 'pre-remove' routine, and the script returns an error (for whatever reason), apt thinks an error occurred and quits | 07:35 |
| Parsec300 | Try pressing CTRL-ALT F2 | 07:35 |
| darkscript | what is init.d? | 07:35 |
| Kousotu | [[thufir]]: no clue | 07:35 |
| darkscript | i've seen it and know its important for proper linux configuration | 07:35 |
| pakmei | scripts launched by the init process to start/stop services | 07:36 |
| darkscript | i think knowing what it does and how to use that knowledge will greatly help | 07:36 |
| Aprilis | KDEnlive or Kino? Which should I use? Which one crashes less? | 07:36 |
| darkscript | in fedora we use service network restart or service ircd start or service httpd restart syntax | 07:36 |
| pakmei | darkscript: same thing | 07:36 |
| Parsec300 | Harde, still there? Oops, he probably was working on that computer and doesn't know how to get back into X | 07:37 |
| pakmei | darkscript: the service utility runs those scripts | 07:37 |
| genius | My top-panel icons dissapeared and Evolution lost my email. What happened and how to back up? | 07:37 |
| darkscript | oh ok | 07:37 |
| darkscript | i see nothing in the initscripts for ngircd | 07:37 |
| pakmei | darkscript: so when you do 'service network start' there's probably a script called /etc/init.d/network | 07:37 |
| darkscript | awesome | 07:37 |
| darkscript | that helps alot | 07:37 |
| darkscript | disambiguation ftw | 07:37 |
| darkscript | oh | 07:38 |
| darkscript | i'm an idiot | 07:38 |
| darkscript | i'm looking at the init scripts for my fedora box (laptop) that serves as my main computer | 07:38 |
| darkscript | might help if i ssh my server box | 07:38 |
| darkscript | O_O | 07:38 |
| pakmei | oops | 07:38 |
| aarne | aargh | 07:39 |
| darkscript | there is an exit 0 at the end of the /etc/init.d/ngircd | 07:39 |
| darkscript | allready | 07:39 |
| pakmei | darkscript: well, put it at the start. so it always exits with 0 | 07:40 |
| pakmei | you're removing it anyway so who cares | 07:40 |
| aarne | I pressed ctrl alt F2 and then I knew not what to do, had to reboot | 07:40 |

| macogw | oh ok | 07:41 |

| === lek is now known as lek_kijo | ||
| darkscript | nice | 07:45 |
| macogw | darkscript: right now, there are still initscripts around so that programs that dont know about upstart yet are ok, but it will all migrate eventually. fedora is adopting upstart as well. | 07:45 |
| darkscript | even better | 07:45 |

| Arelis | Hi everyone. I've tried Ubuntu 7.10 Gutsy Gibbon and i've sometimes experienced random crashes (kernel crashes, i think it's being caused by the video card drivers), and sluggishness (especially on Debian (yes, i'm on Debian right now)). Will Feisty be any better? | 07:52 |

| cerneula | hello everyone. my computer freezes when I try to play a .mov file with Totem. The mouse goes on working but nothing else responds. I cannot restart X and I can only recover my system through SysRq key REISUB. I have Ubuntu 7.10 and four Gstreamer plugins installed (1)extra plugins (2) plugins for mms, wavpack, quictime, musepack (3) ffmepg video plugin and (4) plugins for aac, xvid, mepg2, faad. ANy ideas? THank you! | 08:05 |
| Kousotu | cerneula: insall the bad set of gstreamer maybe? | 08:06 |
| Ziroday | Lunks: ") | 08:06 |
| Parsec300 | Harde, did you change anything to you system? Or does this happen even on a fresh install? | 08:06 |
| cerneula | how? | 08:06 |
| Arelis | How can i make Ubuntu work good on my hardware? Out of the box it doesn't really work well - random crashes everywhere, sluggishness... | 08:07 |
| Harde | I allowed restricted drivers after install... | 08:07 |
| Harde | So my fault, I didn't knew | 08:07 |
| Ziroday | cerneula: try install non-free-codecs | 08:07 |
| Viper111 | Ziroday one more thing how can i add modules for my webmin as squid,.... | 08:07 |
| cerneula | Which ones?? Thank you | 08:08 |
| osfameron | Arelis: if it's old hardware you could try xubuntu instead, uses fewer resources | 08:08 |
| Ziroday | Viper111: sorry never added modules for webmin :) | 08:08 |
| Viper111 | ok thanks | 08:08 |
| Ziroday | cerneula: sudo apt-get install non-free-codecs | 08:08 |
| Arelis | osfameron: it's a system with an AMD Sempron 2800+ processor, and an ATI Radeon 9600 video card. | 08:08 |
| osfameron | Arelis: you might want to look at system logs to see if it gives clues to crashes: run dmesg, or look in /var/log/ etc. | 08:08 |
| cerneula | ok I'll try that, many thanks guys | 08:08 |
| osfameron | Arelis: I'm not good on hardware... is that good or bad? ;-) | 08:09 |
| Arelis | osfameron: not available right now. I haven't got ubuntu installed yet. I tried debian, so i'm in debian now, and it has issues too | 08:09 |
| Viper111 | any body added modules for webmin | 08:09 |
| Arelis | osfameron: It's slightly "old". A few years, maybe. | 08:09 |
| * Lunks is away: dormindo | 08:09 | |
| Arelis | osfameron: before 64-bit, and the video card can handle old games, but not new games like Crysis | 08:09 |
| osfameron | Arelis: a couple of years should be fine I'd have thought. I don't really game, so no idea about tweaking ubuntu for efficient graphics card use, sorry. | 08:10 |
| Parsec300 | Harde, this should not happen at all. | 08:10 |
| Parsec300 | Harde, probably wise to install Envy (google for it) and let it determine which drivers need be installed. | 08:10 |
| prince_jammys | !envy | 08:11 |
| ubotu | envy is an unsupported tool to install newer versions of binary video drivers than provided by the official repositories. Use at your own risk, and remember that the latest version is not necessarily the "best". See « /msg ubotu binarydriver » | 08:11 |
| Parsec300 | Harde, if that doesn't work, I have no more options at this time. I have the same card on another system and it worked out-of-the box correctly with restricted drivers. | 08:11 |
| cerneula | ZIroday: my system can't find that package. Where can I get it? | 08:11 |
| Harde | Darn... So, what does your display-option-screen say about your driver? | 08:12 |
| nuvan | quick question, as i'm having trouble finding useful information on the forums or the internet in general. trying to get my BenQ FP222W to work @ 1680x1050 on my laptop's VGA out, but all I see is the Plug'n'Play monitor which doesn't seem to support that resolution | 08:12 |
| Parsec300 | Harde, I'm currently on that system, it was canibalized anyway. But it did work like a charm once. | 08:12 |
| Arelis | osfameron: Well i know that when using the normal Ubuntu it uses like 600 RAM, and i have 768MB RAM | 08:13 |
| nuvan | I tried going into the list of monitors, but the FP222W isn't listed, and I was unable to find a a driver download for the "add" button | 08:13 |
| Parsec300 | So Harde, try installing Envy and try again. | 08:13 |
| Parsec300 | I'm away now | 08:14 |
| Harde | Envy? From synaptics? | 08:14 |
| un_dave | could someone explain to me how i get gdm to start fluxbox ? at the moment it just seems to drop me straight into x. which isnt very helpful. i cant even get back to the command line | 08:14 |
| genius | nuvan: do you use nvidia? | 08:15 |
| geirha | un_dave: if you've installed the fluxbox package, then there should be an option under the session menu on the login-screen | 08:15 |
| un_dave | ok, will check. once i'm in the session, how can i get back to gdm ? | 08:16 |
| geirha | un_dave: you log out | 08:16 |
| nuvan | genius: onboard ATI Radeon Xpress 200M | 08:16 |
| un_dave | geirha: how ? i have no terminal, no menus | 08:16 |
| nuvan | un_dave: also, if you get stuck, try CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE, as if memory serves, that will kill the X server | 08:16 |
| Freezeil | I need help :( I can't seem to get my first Ubuntu boot up using EasyBCD (I also have Vista installed) | 08:17 |
| un_dave | nuvan: it does, but for somereason doesnt get me back to the terminal | 08:17 |
| geirha | un_dave: what do you mean? if you haven't used fluxbox before, you right click the background to get a menu | 08:17 |
| nuvan | un_dave: try CTRL+ALT+F1 | 08:18 |
| nuvan | un_dave: to get back to X, CTRL+ALT+F7 | 08:18 |
| un_dave | geirha: i dont get that at the moment, so i assume i'm not in fluxbox | 08:18 |
| deka | .com | 08:18 |
| genius | nuvan: i know how to use NVIDIA | 08:18 |
| Freezeil | I keep getting the following error: "Cannot load from hard disk." | 08:19 |
| un_dave | both of those will just take me to a dead monitor | 08:19 |
| nuvan | genius: ya, my desktop sysem's nvidia. problem is, my desktop just shut down, and won't turn back on. | 08:19 |
| Freezeil | Then when I press a few keys it will boot up to Vista | 08:19 |
| un_dave | maybe my monitor doesnt like the res it goes too. not sure. | 08:19 |
| wxPython | hello | 08:20 |
| nuvan | genius: so for now i'm stuck on the lappy, but it's got problems with built-in screen, so i'm hooked up to my monitor with the VGA out. 1280x768 atm, so not a horrible resolution, but 1680x1050 would be nicer. maybe the onboard graphics just doesn't like that large a resolution... | 08:20 |
| geirha | un_dave: that's possible. Do you get the splash screen during boot? with the brown bar going from 0-100? | 08:21 |
| un_dave | geirha: i do. anyway, i got back to gdm. and told it to use fluxbox | 08:22 |
| un_dave | geirha: i get a blue background, and cant right click ? | 08:22 |
| geirha | un_dave: blue background sounds like fluxbox. is there a small panel at the bottom? | 08:23 |
| geirha | un_dave: and does any mouse button do anything? | 08:23 |
| Parsec300 | Harde, no, Envy, google it. | 08:24 |
| CVD-PR | ubuntu are using more and more gb with thw updates that keep coming! | 08:24 |
| Harde | http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59662/ | 08:24 |
| Harde | Tossa tulos | 08:24 |
| un_dave | geirha: yep, i have a small panel. not many options though | 08:24 |
| geirha | !envy | 08:25 |
| ubotu | envy is an unsupported tool to install newer versions of binary video drivers than provided by the official repositories. Use at your own risk, and remember that the latest version is not necessarily the "best". See « /msg ubotu binarydriver » | 08:25 |
| un_dave | geirha: and no applications to start. do i need to manually install them ? and how do i start them ? | 08:25 |
| nuvan | un_dave: normally to start apps in fluxbox, you hold down the right mouse button, and it pops up a menu at the mouse pointer | 08:26 |
| geirha | un_dave: it should be a menu when you right click the background, where you've got all the applications, but if right-clicking doesn't work, then I don't know how to get that menu up | 08:26 |

| Freezeil | Can anyone help me at all? Tring to dual-boot with Ubuntu and Vista and I keep getting a "Cannot load from hard disk." error...? :( | 08:27 |
| un_dave | i dont get any right click menu, except on the panel | 08:27 |
| geirha | sbingner: apt-get source linux-image-VER-xen | 08:27 |
| sbingner | thanks | 08:28 |
| SliMM | how can i set my brightness and gamma and so on in ubuntu? | 08:28 |
| Ulfalizer | Freezeil: did you install vista first, and then ubuntu? when does the error come up? | 08:29 |
| UncleChevitz | !windows | unclechevitz | 08:29 |
| Freezeil | Vista first, Ubuntu yesterday... The error shows up after I installed EasyBCD yesterday in order to actually see the dual boot, and once I select the Ubuntu boot it gives me the error | 08:30 |
| Freezeil | I'm kinda hopeless now... re-installed Ubuntu 3 times already and nothing works :( | 08:30 |
| sbingner | Freezeil, just install grub to your MBR and it'll be simpler for you | 08:30 |
| Freezeil | Googled it and everyone is saying something else | 08:30 |
| nuvan | hehe... ubuntu's just finishing it's updates, and it now has everything installed, even the kitchensync. | 08:31 |
| Ulfalizer | Freezeil: never heard of EasyBCD. there's another boot loader called grub that you could try. | 08:31 |
| UncleChevitz | I second using grub | 08:31 |
| woden | How do I install libc headers? | 08:31 |
| sbingner | nuvan, lol... that's a package? | 08:31 |
| nuvan | sbingner: yep | 08:31 |
| Freezeil | I used the default (non-Advanced) settings on the first installation, and it still gave me that error, IIRC | 08:31 |
| nuvan | sbingner: don't know why it installed, as I don't have any devices requiring sync, but still amusing | 08:31 |
| sbingner | lol | 08:32 |
| Freezeil | How do I use GRUB? | 08:32 |
| woden | woden: What's the package to install to get libc header files? | 08:32 |
| Freezeil | I mean, without EasyBCD the dual-boot doesn't even register and it loads straight into vista instead | 08:32 |
| sbingner | Freezeil, that is installed by default at the end of the ubuntu install - you just need to tell it to install to the MBR (/dev/hda or /dev/sda) | 08:32 |
| Ulfalizer | Freezeil: when you installed ubuntu, didn't it detect the windows installation and asked if you wanted to dual-boot? | 08:32 |
| Ulfalizer | i don't know if ubuntu does that, but i remember someone saying something about it.. | 08:33 |
| Freezeil | Ulfalizer nopes | 08:33 |
| sbingner | Freezeil, you chose to install to the partition you installed ubuntu to I expect... that's wrong | 08:33 |
| Ulfalizer | Freezeil: okay :/ | 08:33 |
| Ulfalizer | that's be a good feature | 08:33 |
| geirha | un_dave: you're not out of space on the home partition or anything? | 08:33 |
| nuvan | Freezeil: you'll need to install grub and replace the BCD store with it. once you have it installed, then you have to tell grub where to find vista, rather than telling vista where to find ubuntu. none of microsoft's bootloaders can boot you to anything but windows. | 08:33 |
| un_dave | geirha: nah, it's a fresh install of ubuntu server | 08:33 |
| === woden is now known as sigp239 | ||
| Freezeil | sbingner: so where should I install it? | 08:34 |
| Ulfalizer | Freezeil: the boot loader is the program that lets you choose which OS you want to boot | 08:34 |
| un_dave | geirha: all i've done is aptget install fluxbox fluxconf though... is there some config i need to do ? | 08:34 |
| sbingner | Freezeil, accept the default | 08:34 |
| Freezeil | nuvan: means I have to load the livecd and manually install GRUB? | 08:34 |
| sbingner | it will be /dev/hda or /dev/sda -- it may call it (hd0) also | 08:34 |
| geirha | un_dave: the default config should allow you to right click and get a menu, so I'm leaning towards that maybe there's something wrong with the mouse | 08:35 |
| sbingner | Freezeil, that would work but it'll be hard for you... if you don't know what you're doing I reccomend a fresh install so it can detect things and give you sane defaults... when you get to the bootloader step you could ask q's here ;) | 08:35 |
| geirha | un_dave: do you have any other mouse to test with, or any other computer to test the mouse on? just to rule it out in any case | 08:35 |
| un_dave | right click works on the panel | 08:35 |
| Freezeil | sbingner: I already tried that (in my case it was /dev/sdb) | 08:35 |
| sbingner | it would NOT be sdb... | 08:36 |
| nuvan | Freezeil: grub _should_ install automatically when you install ubuntu. however, if you tell it to install at the beginning of the ubuntu partition, rather than in the MBR of the drive, your computer will not automatically use it. you can try using a tool like fdisk to flag your ubuntu partition as the boot partition, that might work, or, if you're using multiple physical hard drives, change the boot order in the BIOS so that the syste | 08:36 |
| nuvan | m boots of the linux drive before the vista drive | 08:36 |
| un_dave | geirha: i do have another mouse though. | 08:36 |
| nuvan | m boots off the linux drive before the vista drive | 08:36 |
| sbingner | it needs to be the drive that your BIOS boots off of, in your case it is probably /dev/sda | 08:36 |
| geirha | un_dave: if it is an usb-mouse, connect it and see if there's any change | 08:36 |
| un_dave | k | 08:37 |
| Ulfalizer | Freezeil: if you know what partitions your windows and ubuntu installations are on, installing grub shouldn't be that complicated (there are nice guides online. you need to dig around in some configuration files, but they're not that messy, iirc). | 08:37 |
| Freezeil | sbingner: I have an old IDE, and the one BIOS starts with is my SATA. It is still /dev/sdb | 08:37 |
| Ulfalizer | you could do that from the installation cd, for example | 08:37 |
| sbingner | Freezeil, thats your problem... it'ws confusing grub | 08:37 |
| sbingner | Freezeil, can you make it have your boot drive as sda? | 08:37 |
| Freezeil | sbingner: I can try | 08:38 |
| === olegb_ is now known as olegb | ||
| Freezeil | Ulfalizer: okay. | 08:38 |
| Freezeil | and have GRUB install to the MBR? | 08:38 |
| Freezeil | In case I re-install, that is? | 08:38 |
| sbingner | Freezeil, my system is actually that way also... it's possible to make it work but you have to manually fix the grub config... the scripts don't have any way to know that sdb is really the first drive the bios sees | 08:38 |
| Ulfalizer | yes, there's an utility you run to do that once you've written the config file | 08:38 |
| === MacKulkin is now known as MacKulkinn | ||
| sbingner | it generally assumes sda = hd0 and sdb = hd1 -- if that's not the case you need to change your /boot/grub/device.map to reflect the right order... then fix menu.lst | 08:40 |
| === MacKulkinn is now known as MacKulkinnn | ||
| un_dave | geirha: doesnt seem to make any difference | 08:40 |
| Freezeil | sbingner: so I need to menually change device.map? | 08:40 |
| sbingner | you could make it boot properly via a livecd or rescuecd... just need to get the right settings then run grub-install (hd0) | 08:40 |
| sbingner | Freezeil, if it doesn't get the order of your devices correctly, yes | 08:40 |
| geirha | un_dave: are both mice usb? | 08:41 |
| un_dave | one ps2, one usb | 08:41 |
| Viper111 | i have 2 NIC , how can i have a virtual NIC so that i can give a range of ip's so my lan can have proxy on this virtual nic | 08:41 |
| Ulfalizer | doesn't the installation cd mount every fs it finds on the disk by default? in that case it should be easy to see where windows and ubuntu is installed by running "mount" from the command line and checking out what's in the mount points. | 08:41 |
| sbingner | I have a stupid old IDE card with no BIOS on it... so it's invisible during boot... and linux thinks it's the first drive | 08:41 |
| sbingner | so I had that problem | 08:42 |
| Ulfalizer | oh, never mind | 08:42 |
| woden | How do I completely remove the proprietary nvidia driver that Ubuntu setup on my system? | 08:42 |
| Ulfalizer | grub uses some nasty bios mappings, forgot that | 08:42 |
| un_dave | geirha: ok, reading forums now | 08:42 |
| Ulfalizer | gotta lova legacy technologies | 08:42 |
| Freezeil | sbingner, alright, i'll give it a go | 08:42 |
| Freezeil | and I should install GRUB on my ext3 drive, right? not my swap? | 08:42 |
| sbingner | Freezeil, you should install it to whatever drive your BIOS boots to | 08:43 |
| sbingner | and it does not get installed to a partition, but rather a drive... it's before the partitions | 08:43 |
| sbingner | so it's not ext3 or swap | 08:43 |
| Freezeil | Oh I see | 08:43 |
| Freezeil | okay | 08:43 |
| Freezeil | See you soon, hopefully on linux :) | 08:44 |
| sbingner | the second stage is located in /boot -- that needs to be visible VIA BIOS calls... if one drive is invisible to your BIOS, you may need to make a /boot on the visible drive | 08:44 |
| sofbored | when I type apt-get install php5-sqlite3 I get package not found. Running php5-dev and dapper. Any Idea? | 08:44 |
| Ulfalizer | Freezeil: when the computer boots up, the bios loads some code that resides on the boot disk in the mbr. one step in the installation of grub replaces this code with code that loads grub. | 08:44 |
| Freezeil | okay.. | 08:44 |
| un_dave | geirha: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=371144 i think this will help | 08:45 |
| Ulfalizer | right now you probably have the windows boot loader there, or whatever that other boot loader you used that didn't work was called | 08:45 |
| Freezeil | Righto, lets get to work on it then | 08:45 |
| Freezeil | I'll uninstall easybcd first though | 08:45 |
| un_dave | geirha: sudo update-menus | 08:45 |
| un_dave | geirha: taht fixed it ! | 08:46 |
| Freezeil | See you soon | 08:46 |
| Fujoor | hey anybody here who has played around with bitlbee? | 08:46 |
| Ulfalizer | shouldn't make that much of a difference, but if you want to save the space, then sure :) | 08:46 |
| sbingner | Freezeil, grub would probably happily clobber it.. but it may have some strange things on your windows partition so thats not a bad idea ;) | 08:46 |
| geirha | un_dave: ah, though that should've been done when fluxbox got installed imo, but happy you got it working then :) | 08:46 |
| Ulfalizer | there ought to be a demo competition for demos that reside entirely in the mbr :) | 08:48 |
| un_dave | geirha: any idea why ctrl alt f1 isnt getting me a terminal session ? | 08:48 |
| sbingner | Ulfalizer, what kind of demo? lol... you only get like 418 bytes or so | 08:48 |
| Ulfalizer | sbingner: i've seen some pretty cool 128 byte demos :) | 08:48 |
| Ulfalizer | you probably need to do a lot of initialization though if you're gonna run from the mbr | 08:49 |
| geirha | un_dave: it should have the same video mode as the splash screen, which you're able to see during boot, so I don't understand why you don't see the terminal | 08:49 |

| magnetron | hi, i'm looking for a http server that supports: http compression and content negotiation (multiple languages for each page) | 09:49 |
| Seveas | magnetron, apache it is | 09:49 |
| dethnite | hello | 09:50 |

| magnetron | Seveas: do i have any other options? i was looking for something lightweight, but most of them don't have the features i'm looking for. dilemma | 09:50 |

| alzamabar_ | I'd like the permissions to be rwxrwx---. I set umask to 007 in /etc/profile, but when I created a file the permissions are rw-rw----. Can anyone help? | 10:00 |
| alzamabar_ | P.S. When I type umask the console displays 0007 | 10:00 |
| geirha | alzamabar_: yes, that is correct. The umask says what bits should not be set. | 10:01 |
| geirha | alzamabar_: a regular file should not have execute permissions, so it doesn't get execute permissions | 10:01 |
| geirha | you have to set execute permissions with chmod | 10:01 |
| alzamabar_ | geirha, thanks. So if I created a .sh file that would have execute permissions? Or does it apply to every file? | 10:02 |
| icesword | chmod +x | 10:03 |
| geirha | alzamabar_: no, it doesn't decide whether a file should be executable or not based on the file-extension | 10:03 |
| deformation | hello | 10:03 |
| tarelerulz | Is there a good dvd ripping program that has a gui and rips to mkv? | 10:03 |
| geirha | alzamabar_: shell scripts doesn't need to be executable, you can always run them with: bash the_script.sh | 10:04 |
| sofbored | k9copy rocks | 10:04 |
| tarelerulz | In the repostiory and for x86_64 | 10:04 |
| alzamabar_ | geirha, thanks. So if I understood correctly there is no way to make a file executable at creation time, but if one wants he should use the chmod command, right? | 10:05 |
| deformation | does anyone know how to change the font,color of a specific program in gnome or xfce? | 10:05 |
| tarelerulz | k8copy is a good one ,but it don't have that container format I checked | 10:05 |
| geirha | alzamabar_: well there is, since the umask doesn't prohibit setting the execute bit, a program like an editor for example, can create a file with execute permissions, but it's just not done. Mainly for security reasons | 10:06 |

| prince_jammys | for nvidia: envy, but not recommended | 10:20 |

| ubotu | envy is an unsupported tool to install newer versions of binary video drivers than provided by the official repositories. Use at your own risk, and remember that the latest version is not necessarily the "best". See « /msg ubotu binarydriver » | 10:20 |

| LollinopiL | is the backup from the terminal a good way to create backup's file ? | 11:06 |
| jaakko | DuReX: reinstall does not remove configuration, I think. Remove it "aptitude purge udev" and then install again | 11:06 |
| prince_jammys | skillz: getent passwd 1003 will show you who that is | 11:06 |
| |DuReX| | jaakko: well removing udev will need to remove lotsa other files :s | 11:06 |
| jleza | well see have the windows that look like windows 2000 xp vista ect.. i just wondeing if ill i have to is to put in the disks | 11:06 |
| jaakko | DuReX: yes, it might not smart to do | 11:07 |
| jaakko | Perhaps yo have to find the correct conf files and conf it right. | 11:07 |

| jaakko | skillz: look for "chmod" and "chown" with google | 11:08 |
| skillz | k | 11:08 |
| prince_jammys | skillz: the chmod command, or use the GUI (right click on it and look at properties) | 11:09 |

| cow2001 | funny names, drapes | 11:11 |
| g0th | ahh "drapes" | 11:11 |

| skillz | cow2001: HAHAHAH | 11:11 |
| g0th | yeah I found it and will try it thank you | 11:11 |
| cow2001 | a particular file in that particular directory is making my file browser completely hang | 11:12 |
| foldart | g0th: gnome-appearance-properties | 11:12 |
| danand | cow2001 - do you have any network shares active? They can cause your file manager to a halt as they try to update | 11:12 |
| g0th | foldart: yeah that works :) | 11:12 |
| g0th | but does it also work over the command line? | 11:12 |
| danand | |DuReX| - hmmm... | 11:12 |
| foldart | g0th: i doubt it | 11:12 |
| prince_jammys | g0th: you probably have to edit a config file | 11:12 |
| |DuReX| | danand: isn't there a way to remove udev, without removing the depencies ? and then reinstall udev again | 11:13 |
| Stueh | Evening all | 11:13 |
| g0th | drapes sounds like a good idea, I'm installing it atm | 11:13 |
| fushorts | cant promise it will work but i used it a while ago and it worked | 11:13 |
| jaakko | DuReX: I don't know but perhaps you could download udev.deb and install it with dpkg. It will overwrite files(?) | 11:13 |
| cow2001 | danand, how do i set that up? | 11:14 |
| jaakko | DuReX: what is your problem with udev? | 11:14 |
| jaakko | DuReX: how did you mess it up? | 11:14 |
| danand | |DuReX| - no. removing udev will cause apt to remove a whole host of stuff - including the kernel. jaakko could be right with his suggestion of a manual reinstall using dpkg | 11:14 |
| * skillz hello all - this forum is kool! | 11:15 | |

| jaakko | DuReX: aren't the originals somewhere /usr/share... ? | 11:16 |
| linxeh | wont the original ones be on the live cd ? | 11:16 |
| |DuReX| | well they are in the udev package :p | 11:16 |
| |DuReX| | its just strange a reinstall doesn"t fix it | 11:16 |
| |DuReX| | it should do imo :) | 11:16 |
| linxeh | a reinstall of what ? | 11:16 |
| linxeh | reinstalling a package wont trash your config files if you changed them | 11:17 |
| linxeh | you need to explicitly tell it to do that | 11:17 |
| |DuReX| | how i tell it :) | 11:17 |
| skillz | linxeh: i know, i was jokin - im just very bored.. | 11:17 |
| jaakko | DuReX: /usr/share/doc/udev | 11:17 |
| danand | |DuReX| - This is why you should back up important files before you tamper. | 11:17 |
| DieseL`nix | hello all | 11:17 |

| linxeh | DieseL`nix: ouch | 11:18 |
| |DuReX| | well linxeh: then i need to remove kernel etc also :p cause it depends on udev | 11:18 |
| |DuReX| | not cool :) | 11:18 |
| prince_jammys | skillz: nope, kubuntu :) | 11:18 |
| |DuReX| | if u just need a replacement for 1 config file :) | 11:18 |
| linxeh | skillz: something debian based, though RedHat is generally the best bet in an enterprise (its the only thing everyone certifies their products for atm) | 11:18 |
| danand | linxeh - |DuReX| can't do that - udev is a requirement for a loasd of other packages including the kernel! | 11:18 |
| linxeh | danand: so ? ;-) | 11:19 |
| DieseL`nix | linxeh, ouch? lol | 11:19 |
| linxeh | danand: ok, I take your point | 11:19 |
| skillz | prince_jammys: whats Kubuntu - is that just based on the K file system rather then on the Gnome? | 11:19 |
| danand | linxeh - oooh .... XO | 11:19 |
| prince_jammys | skillz: yep, kde instead of gnome | 11:19 |
| skillz | i used to like KDE, but now gnome has grown on me | 11:20 |
| DieseL`nix | i prefer gnome personally :P | 11:20 |
| skillz | i have been using ubuntu for about 6 days now, and i love it | 11:20 |
| danand | |DuReX| - do you know what files you clobbered? | 11:20 |
| prince_jammys | DieseL`nix: you have installed flashplugin-nonfree> | 11:20 |
| prince_jammys | !info flashplugin-nonfree | 11:20 |
| ubotu | flashplugin-nonfree (source: flashplugin-nonfree): Adobe Flash Player plugin installer. In component multiverse, is optional. Version 9.0.48.0.2+really0ubuntu12.2 (gutsy), package size 17 kB, installed size 156 kB (Only available for i386 amd64 lpia) | 11:20 |
| DieseL`nix | installed it | 11:20 |
| DieseL`nix | didn't work | 11:21 |
| linxeh | |DuReX|: what about getting the deb and extracting it, and manually copying the files you damaged ? | 11:21 |
| skillz | i have been tinkering with different versions of linux for the past 5 years.. but only now has it become easy to use i feel | 11:21 |
| DieseL`nix | firefox tells me to install again, then says it's already installed | 11:21 |
| |DuReX| | linxeh: gonne do that now | 11:21 |
| |DuReX| | tho its kinda weird --reinstall doesn't fix missing/replaced files | 11:21 |
| |DuReX| | but ok:) | 11:21 |
| cow2001 | i don't know how to set up shared directories | 11:21 |
| linxeh | skillz: Gnome looks nice, KDE is actually functional though - I switch between them regularly heh (mainly I just run KDE apps from gnome though) | 11:22 |
| cow2001 | tried searching wiki.ubuntu | 11:22 |
| linxeh | |DuReX|: because oyu might have made 2000 hours of config changes | 11:22 |
| === tdoggette is now known as tdoggette_away | ||
| jaakko | DuReX: No, it is the only right way to do things, so you don't have to configure system allways when updating or repairing broken binary. | 11:22 |
| DieseL`nix | lol why isn't gnome functional linxeh ? | 11:22 |
| === Franck_ is now known as ArturdeLuxe | ||
| prince_jammys | ask linus | 11:22 |
| prince_jammys | :) | 11:22 |
| linxeh | DieseL`nix: it just gets in your way. most of the apps just dont have enough functionality once you get past wanting to do the basics | 11:22 |
| foldart | ha | 11:22 |
| skillz | linxeh, i have ubuntu Gutsy with Gnome, is it possible to install KDE and use that? if so, ,can u tell me how? | 11:23 |
| prince_jammys | google linus torvalds gnome | 11:23 |
| |DuReX| | fixed now anyway :) | 11:23 |
| linxeh | skillz: sudo apt-get install kde (or kubuntu-desktop if you want the full kubuntu apps too) | 11:23 |
| DieseL`nix | gnomes simple, just the way i like it :) | 11:23 |
| |DuReX| | well linxeh: for upgrades it asks to replace file or not :) should maby do with reinstall also ? | 11:23 |
| |DuReX| | anyway missing files should be installed for sure ... | 11:23 |
| DieseL`nix | anyway, flash plugin for firefox? | 11:23 |
| linxeh | DieseL`nix: yeah, I like simple - I use macs - but Gnome takes it too far generally. plus they've got that idiot and his Mono shenanigans | 11:24 |
| skillz | thanks linxeh | 11:24 |
| DieseL`nix | linxeh, i guess it depends one what your doing really | 11:24 |
| archangelpetro | is there a way to limit a command to a set CPU resource limit? | 11:24 |
| archangelpetro | so atm i have a java program running in the background, can i execute it and say that i never want it to use more than 15% CPU? | 11:25 |
| DieseL`nix | ok when i install the flashplugin-nonfree | 11:25 |
| DieseL`nix | it installs fine | 11:25 |
| DieseL`nix | but firefox doesn't use it | 11:25 |
| skillz | i was just wondering what programe to use for Java development, and how to get it? | 11:25 |
| prince_jammys | !flash | 11:26 |
| DieseL`nix | it tells me to install the plugin, click next "oh no it's already installed" | 11:26 |

| archangelpetro | skillz, netbeans? | 11:26 |
| Stueh_ | So I'm on Ubuntu 6.06 (Dapper Drake) and I'm looking at something to mount and make .iso's. I know it can be done with a command line, but anyone know of something with a GUI? | 11:27 |
| archangelpetro | foldart, thanks a lot :) | 11:27 |
| foldart | skillz: jdeveloper | 11:27 |
| Stueh_ | I've found AcetoneISO, but I believe that's KDE, and Gmount-iso, although it's said it comes through apt-get, it ain't there (Or in Synaptic) = | 11:27 |
| foldart | archangelpetro: np :) | 11:27 |
| DieseL`nix | prince_jammys, that hasn't helped | 11:27 |
| skillz | netbeans i feel uses up too much system resources and i have that in my windows environement.. i would like something new to use with ubuntu | 11:27 |
| DieseL`nix | that's exactly what i've done to install it | 11:27 |
| prince_jammys | DieseL`nix: yeah, i suspected it would be useless | 11:27 |
| skillz | foldart: is jdeveloper any good? | 11:27 |
| prince_jammys | DieseL`nix: ok have you ever been able to view flash videos in firefox? | 11:28 |

| suprlady | s allright .. thanks for advice | 11:34 |

| suprlady | ripiket, no, i did not try svn | 11:36 |
| IndyGunFreak | suprlady: well, to my knowldge, thats the only way to get it to work. | 11:37 |
| d0tk0m | x-lite is good for sip | 11:37 |
| skillz | suprlady: if u want video and voice.. just get skype | 11:37 |
| Dr_willis | d0tk0m: a lot of that depends on the sound card you have. Many onboard cards are limited. and the programs you run need to play nicely with eachother and alsa. | 11:37 |
| skillz | that woks perfectly in linux | 11:37 |
| d0tk0m | sip / rtp | 11:37 |
| DieseL`nix | firefox just isn't seeing the plugin | 11:37 |

| skillz | ok, yeh thanks will do | 11:49 |
| damo22 | Blaise: first run ./configure --prefix=/usr | 11:49 |
| Dr_willis | if its even an installer | 11:49 |
| RoadHazard | true doc | 11:50 |
| Blaise | ripiket damo22 when I run ./configure it tells me that No package 'pygtk-2.0' found | 11:50 |
| DieseL`nix | another small silly question now, how do i change xchat colours so ops have blue names, voiced have green and normal users have black ? | 11:50 |
| damo22 | Blaise: sudo apt-get install pygtk-2.0-dev | 11:50 |
| DieseL`nix | atm it's like las vegas here | 11:50 |
| IndyGunFreak | Blaise: what are you tryin to compile? | 11:50 |
| Blaise | in /opt | 11:50 |
| ripiket | damo22, i think it's python-gtk2-dev | 11:51 |
| linduxed | so ive outlined all the details in a thread on the forums, hope someone will want to stop by http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=722357&highlight=wifi | 11:51 |
| damo22 | yeh thats it | 11:51 |
| Blaise | couldn't find package pygtk-2.0 | 11:51 |
| damo22 | Blaise: sudo apt-get install python-gtk2-dev | 11:51 |
| ripiket | damo22, what's he compiling | 11:51 |
| damo22 | ripiket: cdemu | 11:52 |
| Blaise | ripiket CDemu | 11:52 |
| Blaise | damo22 python worked | 11:52 |
| CorruptTerrorist | !webmin > CorruptTerrorist | 11:52 |
| damo22 | Blaise: now run ./configure --prefix=/usr | 11:52 |
| ripiket | isnt that a kernel module? | 11:52 |
| damo22 | ripiket: yeh | 11:52 |
| ripiket | lol i hope he's not compiling his own kernel | 11:52 |
| IndyGunFreak | lol | 11:52 |
| Blaise | damo22 ok that worked :) | 11:52 |
| damo22 | Blaise: now make | 11:52 |
| ripiket | does anyone know how to pull the config options out of an exisiting kernel ? | 11:53 |
| Blaise | damo22 seemed to work | 11:53 |
| damo22 | Blaise: sudo make install | 11:53 |
| Seveas | ripiket, for ubuntu kernels, the .config files are stored in /boot/ | 11:53 |
| Blaise | damo22 that worked | 11:53 |
| Blaise | cdemu | 11:54 |
| damo22 | Blaise: now you should be able to run cdemu | 11:54 |
| paranoibo | sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda bs=512 count=1 | 11:54 |
| ripiket | dont do that | 11:54 |
| paranoibo | dont do that | 11:54 |
| Blaise | damo22 not sure how | 11:54 |
| damo22 | paranoibo: that wipes your partition table... bad boy | 11:54 |
| Blaise | damo22 cdemu can't be found | 11:54 |

| DieseL`nix | the folders in the applications menu, are they actually stored somewhere in the filesystem as physical folders? | 11:57 |
| ripiket | damo22, wouldnt he have to recompile his kernel to get that to work, since it's a kernel module ? | 11:57 |
| Stueh_ | I anyone able to give me a suggestion on a good GUI based ISO mount & make etc.? | 11:57 |
| damo22 | ripiket: no he just needs the relevant kernel headers in the right place | 11:57 |
| Seveas | DieseL`nix, no | 11:58 |
| ripiket | steuh_: xterm | 11:58 |
| ripiket | steuh_: hehe | 11:58 |
| DieseL`nix | kk | 11:58 |
| Seveas | DieseL`nix, /usr/share/applications/*.desktop | 11:58 |

| Stueh_ | Herm | 11:58 |
| ripiket | Stueh_, let's see what i can find hold up | 11:58 |
| rausb0 | Stueh_: what's so difficult about mount -o loop,ro image.iso /mnt ? | 11:58 |
| Stueh_ | ripiket, I'll assume that's XKDE based :P | 11:58 |
| Stueh_ | I'm using Dapper, Gnome desktop | 11:59 |
| Blaise | damo22 no such file or directory | 11:59 |
| damo22 | Blaise: thats your problem | 11:59 |
| Blaise | damo22 I assume uname is literally uname | 11:59 |
| prince_jammys | DieseL`nix: there's also ~/.local/share/desktop-directories/ , for your customized ones | 11:59 |
| damo22 | Blaise: you dont have the kernel headers installed | 11:59 |
| Stueh_ | ripiket, And no, for some reason GmountISo doesn't come up with apt-get or synaptic etc. | 11:59 |
| Blaise | hmm, I thought we did that? | 11:59 |
| Stueh_ | rausb0, Some people like to use a GUI :( | 11:59 |
| damo22 | Blaise: so you cant possibly compile a kernel module | 11:59 |
| Blaise | ok | 11:59 |
| Stueh_ | Espesh when they just come from XP :) | 11:59 |
| ripiket | Can someone make Stueh_ a bash script | 12:00 |
| damo22 | Blaise: sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r` | 12:00 |
| Dr_willis | I like that fuseiso tool myself. | 12:00 |
| Dr_willis | there are some other front ends to mounting iso's i recall mentioned on some of hte ubuntu tutorial/news sites | 12:00 |
| Stueh_ | ripiket, Yeah yeah funny funny :P | 12:01 |
| ripiket | Stueh_, if you find one let me know, because I'm getting too lazy to do it in the shell | 12:01 |
| Blaise | damo22 linux-headers-2.6.22-14-generic is already the newest version. | 12:01 |
| Dr_willis | I recall there being some addon thing for gnome that let you mount iso's but i never used it. perhaps gnome-look.org has it. | 12:02 |
| m1lkc0w | Ouch! I've messed up my kubuntu installation by installing virtualbox-ose-modules-generic. I believe that I switched from the -386 kernel and modules to the generic flavour. | 12:02 |
| Blaise | Dr_wills I need to work with cue's and bins | 12:02 |
| Blaise | Dr_willis I need to work with cue's and bins | 12:03 |
| damo22 | Blaise: you can run bchunk to convert your bin/cue to iso | 12:03 |
| m1lkc0w | Which flavor is is the default for hardy on a standard i386 platform? -generic or -386? | 12:03 |
| prince_jammys | alias isomount='mount -o loop,ro "$1" /mnt' | 12:04 |

| m1lkc0w | Xk2c: 2.6.24-12-386 | 12:08 |
| Xk2c | m1lkc0w: i think you need to install 'linux-generic' and then reboot with that kernel | 12:08 |
| Xk2c | m1lkc0w: after that proceed | 12:08 |
| Stueh_ | prince_jammys, I'm on Dapper, and can't update to the latest Ubuntu due to it killing the whole OS every time I do so | 12:08 |
| m1lkc0w | Xk2c: Is it a known problem that virtualbox may mess with the kernel/modules? | 12:08 |
| damo22 | i think i'll wait until hardy comes out before i bother upgrading | 12:09 |
| Xk2c | m1lkc0w: you are running an custom not standard kernel 'i386' | 12:09 |
| Dr_willis | damo22: i tend to wait a week or 2 after they come out to upgrade. :) | 12:09 |
| Xk2c | m1lkc0w: default is '*-generic' | 12:09 |
| Moduliz0r | can anyone help me with installing ubuntu (64-bit)? The installer stops at 5% (creating ext3 partition) | 12:09 |

| dorneanu | hy | 12:10 |
| gaE4 | is there a way, to see when u have installed your system? | 12:10 |
| prince_jammys | Stueh_: but there should be something in the repositories | 12:10 |
| Dr_willis | damo22: may be better to just do a clean reinstall. | 12:10 |
| m1lkc0w | Xk2c: It tells me that linux-generic is already the latest version | 12:10 |
| Stueh_ | prince_jammys, Nah, nothing in the repositories I can find, but thanks for the link :) | 12:11 |
| Xk2c | m1lkc0w: that means it is allready installed | 12:11 |

| WaZ` | me either | 12:12 |
| Seveas | ripiket, only 499 | 12:12 |
| Dr_willis | I counted 498 | 12:13 |

| Werenerd | Hello all - I am having a problem moving a large number of files (mp3 & ogg collection) from one HD to another. Everytime I try, ubuntu crashes and I have to reboot. I can't copy the error messages but it appears to be a file i/o error. How would you recommend moving 57 GB of music between HD's? | 12:15 |
| ripiket | Moduliz0r, any other active partitions? | 12:15 |
| damo22 | Blaise: bchunk -r foo.bin foo.cue foo that will convert any bin/cue to iso | 12:15 |
| ripiket | richard__, it is as bloated as windows | 12:15 |
| Dr_willis | binaricalapp: you could ssh to the box from a different linux machine that has X, and perhaps run firestarter and see the gui that way | 12:15 |
| ripiket | richard__, try 'transmission' or 'ktorrent' | 12:15 |
| Blaise | damo22 Yes it seems to have worked, thanks for that | 12:15 |
| Seveas | Werenerd, if you get I/O errors, one of your disks is dying. Get a working disk | 12:15 |
| Moduliz0r | ripiket: no, I let it use the entire disk | 12:16 |
| Blaise | damo22 everything else seemed a waste of time | 12:16 |
| Werenerd | Seveas: are you kidding me??? | 12:16 |
| Blaise | damo22 couldn't get fuseiso working either | 12:16 |
| damo22 | Blaise: i got cdemu working | 12:16 |
| Seveas | Werenerd, no | 12:16 |
| ripiket | Werenerd, Failing HDs are way more common than people think. | 12:16 |
| Seveas | I get about one diskfailure per month | 12:16 |
| ripiket | Werenerd, Get a copy of ultimate boot cd and test your hd (full sector scan) | 12:16 |
| binaricalapp | I can ssh into the box , however the out put is still console based and will not GUI | 12:16 |
| WaZ` | does the job for me... | 12:16 |

| gyaresu_ | CorruptTerrorist: you can. but if you have to ask you may not want to administrate it. | 12:18 |
| Xk2c | Moduliz0r: check "/etc/usplash.conf" | 12:18 |
| Moduliz0r | ok | 12:18 |
| Seveas | abuyazan, apt-get install network-manager-vpnc and you can do it from the stanard network tools | 12:18 |

| damo22 | Seveas: whats the quickest way to discover ip addresses of machines on your own LAN? | 12:19 |
| ripiket | WaZ`, I cant afford a replacement or cant wait for a RMA replacement | 12:19 |

| Xk2c | Moduliz0r: that's your problem | 12:19 |
| CorruptTerrorist | gyaresu_, please don't tell me i can but i should not, i just want to know not be told that i shouldn't | 12:19 |
| binaricalapp | thanks DR_willis | 12:19 |
| Moduliz0r | 640*480? | 12:19 |
| binaricalapp | ill give that a swirl | 12:19 |
| ripiket | Werenerd, Once you get another HD, use a program called 'unstoppable copier' by 'roadkil' and copy your music to the new drive with that. | 12:19 |
| Moduliz0r | How could I check the CD for defects from inside the live cd? | 12:20 |
| AudioSenseCD | damo22: clone your mac address | 12:20 |
| ripiket | Werenerd, I'm sure someone else has a way to do it with linux, but not me | 12:20 |
| richard__ | ripiket: azaerus is fine, i donnt know if you seen the latest on windows, it was realy full of shit :( | 12:20 |
| Xk2c | Moduliz0r: ic have xres=1280 yres=800 | 12:20 |
| Seveas | Moduliz0r, when booting, it gives you the option to do so | 12:20 |
| Moduliz0r | Yeah but it goes out of my monitor's range and then the monitor turns off | 12:20 |
| ripiket | richard__, you tried the linux one? i dunno... 60+ mb of ram usage for a torrent client is simply unacceptable to me haha | 12:20 |
| Werenerd | ripiket: funny you should mention that. I was moving my mp3's from the phyical disc that has windows on it so that I can wipe it off. | 12:20 |
| damo22 | AudioSenseCD: i mean i want to check the IP of another machine on my lan because i dont know it | 12:20 |
| richard__ | ripiket: heh, well, its nothing to the one on windows, its clean enough for me :) | 12:20 |
| Moduliz0r | Is there any way to do it from inside the booted live cd? | 12:21 |
| Werenerd | ripiket: well, looks like there is a linux version of that app | 12:21 |
| Xk2c | m1lkc0w: http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ubuntu.devel.changes.hardy/8377 | 12:21 |
| IndyGunFreak | ripiket: what torrent client is doing that? | 12:21 |
| Moduliz0r | can't wait for 8.04 | 12:21 |
| Moduliz0r | not long :D | 12:22 |
| m1lkc0w | Xk2c: Just rebooted; sound and wireless are back in business. uname- r tells me it's -generic. | 12:22 |
| AudioSenseCD | damo22: rite click on it then choose manualy configure and so on you can cheack it iether | 12:22 |
| ripiket | IndyGunFreak, Azureus is pretty much that bloated. I've resorted to uTorrent/Wine just to get a decent torrent client | 12:22 |
| gyaresu_ | CorruptTerrorist: Mail servers take a lot of configuration. Well a quick 'apt-cache search mail |grep -i server' brings back a bunch. Courier etc. but any should be compileable and installable from source. I really meant that there is no 'magic' mail server programme. They are all a lot of work (configuration & maintenence). | 12:22 |
| Xk2c | m1lkc0w: ok | 12:22 |
| Moduliz0r | What's the OEM install? | 12:22 |
| ripiket | Werenerd, very nice, ill have to try it. | 12:22 |
| IndyGunFreak | ripiket: oh yah, i agree, i find azeurus absurdly heavy... i just use transmission.. i find it works for me | 12:22 |
| m1lkc0w | Xk2c: Thanks a bunch for your help. | 12:22 |
| damo22 | AudioSenseCD: i mean checking the IP of the machine from a remote machine | 12:22 |
| Xk2c | m1lkc0w: ;) | 12:22 |
| Werenerd | ripiket: http://www.roadkil.net/unstopcp.html link to homepage | 12:22 |
| ripiket | IndyGunFreak, I would use transmission, but I need upnp support | 12:22 |
| IndyGunFreak | oh ok | 12:23 |
| ripiket | IndyGunFreak, I dunno how utorrent/wine does it, but for some reason it works? | 12:23 |
| WaZ` | ripiket: last time I got an HD replaced by best buy it took like 3 days | 12:23 |
| IndyGunFreak | ripiket: yes it does... | 12:23 |
| AudioSenseCD | damo22: aww ask Dr_willis about it or Werenerd | 12:23 |
| damo22 | AudioSenseCD: imagine, i want to SSH into the box, but i cant remember the IP, how do you find a list of possible IPs | 12:23 |
| skillz | how to increase mic volume? | 12:23 |
| ripiket | IndyGunFreak, upnp on transmission has never worked for me | 12:23 |
| AudioSenseCD | damo22: nah you can't | 12:24 |
| ripiket | IndyGunFreak, i like the queuing options and stuff on utorrent | 12:24 |
| gyaresu_ | CorruptTerrorist: Have you had a look on http://howtoforge.com lot's of good setups there. | 12:24 |
| CorruptTerrorist | gyaresu_, ok, i knew that, i just thought you said i was stupid :( sorry | 12:24 |
| IndyGunFreak | ripiket: hmm, i'mnot a huge torrent downloader, so i don't know.. just the occasinoal movie, and linux iso's | 12:24 |
| tilki | alooo | 12:24 |
| gyaresu_ | CorruptTerrorist: :) I'd never say that. | 12:24 |
| ripiket | WaZ`, i bought mine from a smaller VAR so I'll have to wait for their techs to look at the HD (which is silly because I used to be the lead tech of the company) and then RMA it to their head office, who in turn tests it again, then RMAs it to seagate :( argh | 12:25 |
| skillz | how do you increase mic volume in ubuntu???? | 12:25 |
| Odd-rationale | skillz: Check you alsamixer settings. | 12:25 |
| richard__ | ripiket: i never ran wine before, but isn't it heavy? or does it realy work smooth to run it like that? | 12:25 |
| Odd-rationale | *your | 12:25 |
| skillz | cheers | 12:25 |
| laesca_ | hello | 12:25 |
| ripiket | IndyGunFreak, hehe I'm suprised my isp hasnt capped me yet for downloading at 500kbyte/s+ every night, all night | 12:25 |
| gyaresu_ | hello laesca_ | 12:25 |
| IndyGunFreak | ripiket: lol, yeah that is surprising | 12:26 |
| Xk2c | skillz: right click on the speaker applet | 12:26 |
| ripiket | richard__, has some issues, but it works acceptably for me. i really like utorrent, so im willing to put up with it. try transmission though, it's pretty decent. i would use it but my home network setup prevents it | 12:26 |
| damo22 | WOW ssh -X rocks | 12:26 |
| WaZ` | ripiket: arf bureaucracy | 12:26 |
| ripiket | damo22, ssh -X ?? | 12:26 |
| Xk2c | skillz: or "alsamixer" | 12:26 |
| ripiket | damo22, remote X session ? | 12:27 |
| damo22 | ripiket: yeah | 12:27 |
| ripiket | F*CK! | 12:27 |
| ripiket | I had no idea that existed! | 12:27 |
| ripiket | WOO! | 12:27 |
| damo22 | ripiket: never used it | 12:27 |
| ripiket | Look out university servers! | 12:27 |
| ripiket | hehe | 12:27 |
| damo22 | haha | 12:27 |
| damo22 | you're taking the mickey | 12:28 |
| ripiket | damo22, does it work like vnc? | 12:28 |
| angah | hi... | 12:28 |
| WaZ` | ripiket: better | 12:28 |
| damo22 | ripiket: yeah | 12:28 |
| WaZ` | ripiket: each user gets their own session | 12:28 |
| ripiket | holy sh!t | 12:28 |
| ripiket | it works awesome! | 12:28 |
| ripiket | now i can use mathematica at home | 12:28 |
| ripiket | I love you guys! | 12:28 |
| ripiket | hahaha | 12:28 |
| laesca_ | im looking for an webradio programm, has anybody an idea ? | 12:28 |
| damo22 | yep | 12:28 |
| Dr_willis | ripiket: it pays to read the ssh docs. :) thats one of the top features. | 12:29 |
| angah | i cannot access my hdd..i l already install ntfs-3g..I'm using feisty..any idea? | 12:29 |
| WaZ` | ripiket: wohoo@differentials in bed | 12:29 |
| Dr_willis | ripiket: that and ssh tunnles, whichis another kicking feature. but i rarely need it. | 12:29 |
| rausb0 | Dr_willis: i use ssh -R frequently | 12:29 |
| ripiket | Dr_willis, haha, well if the man pages werent so goddam* dry... | 12:29 |
| Odd-rationale | angah: See if you can access it from a gutsy livecd. If so, upgrade! | 12:30 |
| Dr_willis | ripiket: thers whole web sites and books covering ssh. | 12:30 |
| RoadHazard | man pages do lack a certain flair | 12:30 |
| ripiket | hahaha | 12:30 |
| reaby | angah: did you shutdown windows properly. | 12:30 |
| ripiket | We need Tony Robbins to write the man pages | 12:30 |
| angah | i just using 1 os only.. | 12:30 |
| RoadHazard | I think stephen king wrote the cygwin man pages | 12:30 |
| angah | no windows..but that hdd using ntfs format | 12:30 |
| Tooommi | I'm going to get a new nvidia graphics card. So is using the "restricted drivers" the best way to go? | 12:31 |
| Odd-rationale | Tooommi: yup! | 12:31 |
| === XinDongh is now known as StephenLin | ||
| laesca_ | so so | 12:31 |
| === StephenLin is now known as DHboy | ||
| laesca_ | tztztzzz | 12:31 |
| byte_code | laesca: try www.reciva.com - u can add the radio stations to rhythmbox | 12:31 |
| Tooommi | Odd-rationale: Okay thanks :) | 12:31 |
| blue-frog_ | damo22: use nmap to scan the network, but if you have no right to do it you will get in trouble most certainly | 12:32 |
| laesca_ | wow, thank you | 12:32 |
| ripiket | RoadHazard, i try to stay away from the man pages. makes my head explode | 12:32 |
| damo22 | thanks blue-frog_ | 12:32 |
| byte_code | laesca: reciva.com lists lots of online stations around the world | 12:32 |
| WaZ` | byte_code: is there mandarin pop on that website? | 12:32 |
| angah | i'm using force mount..but my friend said.. i have edit in 1 file..either fstab or mtab.. he not remember wel...can any one guide me? | 12:32 |
| byte_code | WaZ: what is mandarin? | 12:32 |
| WaZ` | byte_code: a language | 12:33 |
| rausb0 | ripiket: try "man false", it's funny | 12:33 |
| richard__ | byte_code: chinese language | 12:33 |
| WaZ` | byte_code: also known as mandarin chinese | 12:33 |
| byte_code | Waz:oh - chinese ? probably - | 12:33 |
| laesca_ | very nice im looking on this site | 12:33 |
| ripiket | lol. false needs a man page? | 12:33 |
| RoadHazard | false - do nothing, unsuccessfully | 12:34 |
| rausb0 | ;) | 12:34 |
| Dr_willis | every command needs a manpage | 12:34 |
| Dr_willis | :) | 12:34 |
| ripiket | The full documentation for false is maintained as a Texinfo manual. | 12:34 |
| ripiket | lol, as if the man page wasnt explicit enough | 12:34 |
| laesca_ | so a nice weekend for all , bye | 12:35 |
| angah | i have put sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sda2 /media/disk -o force in my /etc/rc/.local .. i not sure it really work or not.. | 12:36 |
| angah | so..each time i restart or start my pc..it will load that script | 12:36 |
| egoleo | hello i installed a windows base game with wine but the fonts of the game dont show. help me plse. i am using gutsy | 12:37 |
| Dr_willis | angah: why do you have to do that? you can make a fstab entry for your hard drive | 12:37 |
| gyaresu_ | angah: did you look at the ntfs-3g page on ubuntu? | 12:37 |
| astro76 | angah: you should use fstab instead | 12:37 |
| prince_jammys | angah: why not just create an fstab entry? | 12:37 |
| gyaresu_ | !ntfs-3g | angah | 12:37 |
| ubotu | angah: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions | 12:37 |
| Dr_willis | angah: you should also have windows check that disk so you dont have to use -o force | 12:37 |
| Werenerd | ripiket: I don't think the linux version works or I am an idiot. it keeps trying to open in wine | 12:37 |
| angah | i was said earlier..i already install ntfs-3g but still cannot access my hdd.. | 12:37 |
| Dr_willis | angah: did you install/run the ntfs-config tool? | 12:38 |
| angah | i dont know what to put in fstab | 12:38 |
| prince_jammys | angah: /dev/sda2 /media/disk ntfs-3g defaults 0 0 | 12:38 |
| angah | Dr_willis: already | 12:38 |
| Dr_willis | i think ntfs-config only modifies existing fstab entrys however. it wont gerneate new ones. | 12:39 |
| Arelis | hi everybody. I started an install of Wine, and it's been busy for some time now (7 minutes?), with something that shouldn't take so long, and Ctrl+C doesn't abort it.: | 12:39 |
| Arelis | robin@robins-computer:~/bin$ sudo dpkg --configure -a | 12:39 |
| Arelis | Configuring binfmt-support (1.2.10) ... | 12:39 |
| gyaresu_ | Arelis: If nothing happens soon, worst case is to open another terminal and 'pkill -9 dpkg' | 12:42 |
| Arelis | Anybody? | 12:42 |
| * gyaresu_ waves at Arelis | 12:42 | |
| === rara is now known as cew2_imoet | ||
| egoleo | anyone help me plse | 12:44 |
| Arelis | gyaresu_: did you read my question? | 12:44 |
| egoleo | i dont get fonts showing with a game i installed with wine | 12:44 |
| egoleo | on gutsy | 12:44 |
| gyaresu_ | Arelis: Yes. And answered you. If nothing happens soon, worst case is to open another terminal and 'pkill -9 dpkg' | 12:45 |
| byte_code | WaZ`: yes - there are mandarin spoken language stations on www.reciva.com | 12:45 |
| WaZ` | byte_code: cool thanks | 12:45 |
| byte_code | although I can't understand a word of it - I'm afraid | 12:45 |
| Arelis | gyaresu_: oops, didn't see it. thank you :) | 12:45 |
| byte_code | ;-) | 12:45 |
| gyaresu_ | egoleo: You might be better off trying the wine forum or checking in at winhq | 12:45 |
| ripiket | Werenerd, utorrent is wine-only. there's no linux version. did you try transmission? | 12:45 |
| egoleo | ok | 12:45 |
| egoleo | thnx | 12:45 |
| abuyazan | network-manager-vpnc is for cisco VPN | 12:45 |
| Arelis | gyaresu_: alright that worked but now how do i restore dpkg? | 12:46 |
| gyaresu_ | egoleo: or wine channel | 12:46 |
| egoleo | what is the wine channel | 12:46 |
| egoleo | bcs just tried | 12:46 |
| abuyazan | i am not using CISCO VPN, i run PPTP VPN on Cisco router | 12:46 |
| egoleo | and nothing | 12:46 |
| blahblahx | anyone know what "language failed with exit code 127" means | 12:46 |
| blahblahx | ? | 12:46 |
| WaZ` | byte_code: me either ;-) | 12:46 |
| abuyazan | i installed network-manger-pptp but it always fail to connect | 12:46 |
| abuyazan | how can i use PAP authentication with PPTP client | 12:46 |
| gyaresu_ | Arelis: Well personally I'd 'sudo apt-get --purge remove wine' and then reinstall. See if you win second time around. | 12:47 |
| Arelis | gyaresu_: says i have to use dpkg --configure -a.. which does the same thing all over again | 12:47 |
| blahblahx | anyone know what "language failed with exit code 127" means | 12:47 |
| byte_code | WaZ`: lol! I found out about it cz I have a linux powered Bush internet radio that connects via wireless lan: I listen to armenian folk, jazz, Nasa, etc. it's neat little piece of hardware. | 12:47 |
| ripiket | blahblahx, no luck with google | 12:48 |
| blahblahx | ripiket: i know thats why i asked here | 12:48 |
| gyaresu_ | Arelis: are you installing single package with dpkg? | 12:48 |
| WaZ` | byte_code: haha armenian, good one as well :D | 12:48 |
| gyaresu_ | blahblahx: Got some more info on what you were doing? | 12:48 |
| ripiket | blahblahx, what are you trying to do | 12:48 |
| Arelis | gyaresu_: no, i started the whole thing with synaptic. installed "wine" from "Add/Remove programs", after adding the wine repository. | 12:48 |
| gyaresu_ | Arelis: hmmm. 'sudo dpkg -r wine' | 12:49 |
| blahblahx | ripiket gyaresu_ I'm building a distro based on ubuntu, and on the test iso, when you install the system in a different language, you get "language failed with exit code 127", but the language works automatically after the error | 12:49 |
| ripiket | blahblahx, judging from http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-399211.html looks like your dependencies are f*cked up | 12:49 |
| byte_code | WaZ`: The armenian music is quite varied, one minute it's aremenian technoi, the next it's almost klezmer. I love it. All brought to you by the power of linux | 12:49 |

| Quiz_Master | hello I need some help | 12:50 |
| gyaresu_ | hello Quiz_Master | 12:50 |
| _Tux_ | Is there any way to compile my own kernal but keep the existing one ??? (in grub list) | 12:50 |
| blahblahx | blahblahx: what? that doesn't even mention any language errors | 12:50 |
| Quiz_Master | gyaresu_: hii | 12:50 |
| Dr_willis | _Tux_: yes. You normally do it that way. | 12:50 |
| Quiz_Master | I installed Ubuntu | 12:51 |
| Quiz_Master | and now I wanna install XP for my little sister | 12:51 |
| prince_jammys | !enter | Quiz_Master | 12:51 |
| ubotu | Quiz_Master: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 12:51 |
| _Tux_ | Dr_willis : so i'll manually need to added another entry in the grub list for the new kernel? | 12:51 |
| Quiz_Master | ok... | 12:51 |
| gyaresu_ | Quiz_Master: Ok. Well that's not a problem as long as it's on a second hard drive. | 12:51 |
| Quiz_Master | no I have only one Hdd | 12:51 |
| blahblahx | gyaresu_: any ideas? | 12:51 |
| holyguyve1 | I already asked this in xubuntu but no one has answered, so I am asking in here. I accidently xkilled the xfce panel (start bar) & now I have restarted my computer 3 times & it refuses to start the panel & whenever I click to open the panel manager, it will not open. (I am talking about the whole panel, as in the bar that goes across the entire top/buttom of the screen) | 12:52 |
| gyaresu_ | Quiz_Master: Bad news then is that Ubuntu doesn't mind but xp does. You'll need to install xp first and then ubuntu. | 12:52 |
| byte_code | prince_jammys: isn't using the enter key a safer way to ask a question without being kicked for flooding? | 12:52 |
| prince_jammys | i | 12:52 |
| prince_jammys | don't | 12:52 |
| zeel | yes xp first then ubuntu | 12:52 |
| prince_jammys | think | 12:52 |
| ripiket | blahblahx, not really enough information to deduce what's going on. i.e. what script/process is producing the error, etc | 12:52 |
| prince_jammys | so | 12:52 |
| Quiz_Master | gyaresu_: isnt there any way? | 12:52 |
| cjsstables | hello all. wondering if smeone can help me diagnose sound problems Ubuntu 7.10 (Linux Mint Xfce) | 12:52 |
| byte_code | prince_jammys: ok - in that context I have to agree¬ lol. | 12:52 |
| Arelis | gyaresu_: that worked. But i do want WINE.. hmm.. | 12:52 |
| Dr_willis | _Tux_: of course. :) | 12:52 |
| gyaresu_ | blahblahx: Error is in the disk you are making? | 12:52 |
| Dr_willis | _Tux_: 'update-grub' MIGHT find the new kernel.. ive never noticed really. | 12:53 |
| byte_code | prince_jammys: I want to ask a lirc question but no I'm too scared that seveas will kick me again - how should I go about asking my question? | 12:53 |
| prince_jammys | byte_code: then you have to piece together the question, when there's other people's comments in between. in your case, the question was very long, so you could pastebin or make it a bit shorter | 12:53 |
| Itaku | when a file in terminal is colored like this what does that mean? | 12:53 |
| gyaresu_ | Quiz_Master: Like i said, it's not a linux problem. I could elaborate. | 12:53 |
| _Tux_ | Dr_willis: thanks, I'll keep reading on how to compile a kernel to be sure im doing it properly | 12:53 |
| byte_code | prince_jammys: ok | 12:54 |
| cjsstables | it looks like ubuntu is loading the wrong driver for my sb audigy card. It is loading emu10k1 when it should be emu10k2 | 12:54 |
| gyaresu_ | Quiz_Master: Not that i don't want to help. It's not that. You just NEED to install xp first if only on one drive. | 12:54 |
| prince_jammys | !paste | byte_code and first give a brief intro to what it's about | 12:54 |
| ubotu | byte_code and first give a brief intro to what it's about: 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) | 12:54 |
| Quiz_Master | gyaresu_: ohk.. i will do | 12:54 |
| Quiz_Master | gyaresu_: thanks | 12:54 |
| blahblahx | ripiket: sorry. I have made my own distro based off ubuntu 7.10. when you run the test iso, ubiquity seems to act funny. if you choose a language other than english to install with, then after install you get the error "language failed with exit code 127". However, the language is installed and works, just I can't figure out why the error pops up. | 12:54 |
| byte_code | prince_jammys: thank you :-) | 12:55 |
| blahblahx | ripiket: and also with the timezone. If you choose any of the timezones, there is the error "Timezone selection failed" but it works afterwords | 12:55 |
| Itaku | uh when i download apache2 where do i put the html files? | 12:55 |
| blahblahx | Itaku: /var/www/ | 12:56 |
| gyaresu_ | Arelis: Try running the 'sudo apt-get install wine' from command line may give you better logging. Try an upgrade first. | 12:56 |
| marta_ | Hi, I seem to be getting random X crashes, can someone please help me fix them? I've pasted the X log at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59669/ | 12:56 |
| Itaku | thanks | 12:56 |
| Arelis | gyaresu_: will do | 12:56 |
| ripiket | blahblahx, Ok, I don't know enough to help you out, but from what you've typed I would think that people would be in a better position to help you. | 12:56 |
| blahblahx | do you know who would be able to help me better? | 12:56 |
| danand | _Tux_ - using the package kernel-package creates a .deb of the new kernel. You can then install with dpkg. The update of grub etc should be done automatically for you | 12:56 |
| ripiket | blahblahx, someone older and wiser than me | 12:57 |
| blahblahx | ripiket: any specifics? | 12:57 |
| blahblahx | ripiket: or channels? | 12:57 |
| ripiket | Seveas, Where's your hardy repository ? | 12:57 |
| DaveEngland | hello! could anybody tell me, how can i mount an .iso image? | 12:57 |
| ompaul | !seveas | 12:57 |
| ubotu | Seveas has a popular 3rd party repository for several packages. More info (and mirrors) on http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages | 12:57 |
| DaveEngland | !iso | 12:57 |
| gyaresu_ | !iso | DaveEngland | 12:57 |
| ubotu | DaveEngland: To mount an ISO disc image, type « sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint> » - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning. | 12:57 |
| _Tux_ | danand : cool! I want to do it since I made several minor changes to some parts of the kernel (code wise)..wanna test it | 12:57 |
| ripiket | ompaul, i know, im just trying to motivate him to create a hardy repository | 12:58 |
| danand | _Tux_ - make sure you read all the info on the correct way to create a new kernel for Ubuntu first though :) | 12:58 |
| ompaul | ripiket, he will in time | 12:58 |
| marta_ | nobody knows what's wrong? | 12:58 |
| danand | _Tux_ - if you made small changes to certain modules, i think you can just recompile those modules for the kernel your currently running and test them that way. That may be a bit more complex though.. | 13:01 |
| gyaresu_ | marta_: What did you do that may have cause this or has it done it from fresh install? | 13:01 |
| lesshaste | do any wireless printers work in linux? | 13:01 |
| _Tux_ | danand: I made changes to specific IO modules in the kernel, Which I would like to test, and of course im not going to compile the whole kernel... | 13:01 |
| marta_ | gyaresu_: it has started happening randomly for the last week | 13:01 |
| gyaresu_ | lesshaste: Did you check the wiki and google? | 13:02 |
| _Tux_ | danand: still reading on how to compile ,etc.... there are many guides over the web | 13:02 |
| lesshaste | gyaresu_: the ubuntu wiki? | 13:02 |
| marta_ | gyaresu_: I ran memtest and my ram seems to be ok so I really have no idea :/ | 13:02 |
| Dr_willis | lesshaste: Hmm.. depends on how they are wireless i guess. :) and how they are working as a printserver. | 13:02 |
| lesshaste | Dr_willis: :) It's just for my home setup | 13:02 |
| gyaresu_ | marta_: Heat? could be the memory on the card. Do you solely use linux? | 13:02 |
| gyaresu_ | lesshaste: Yep. | 13:03 |
| marta_ | gyaresu_: yes I only use Ubuntu ; how can I know of it's the card's memory? | 13:03 |
| danand | _Tux_ - yeah.... and they all tell you to do it a different way... :) Try looking for links in the Ubuntu docs or forums only. | 13:03 |
| Quack3 | hello | 13:03 |
| lesshaste | gyaresu_: 0 results of about 3343 pages. (0.10 seconds) | 13:03 |
| Dr_willis | lesshaste: theres bluetooth wirless.. and network wireless. i'd hope a wireless networked printer would be having a decent printserver built in. Not sure how else they could work. | 13:03 |
| lesshaste | gyaresu_: :) | 13:03 |
| gyaresu_ | marta_: Excellent question. Don't know. | 13:03 |
| gyaresu_ | lesshaste: 0 results of about 26885 pages. (0.71 seconds) | 13:04 |
| gyaresu_ | ;) | 13:04 |
| egoleo | hey i have fixed ma wine problem | 13:04 |
| egoleo | is working fine | 13:04 |
| egoleo | thnx all | 13:04 |
| _Tux_ | danand: you are right, each site tells something else, I would stick to the ubuntu docs... | 13:04 |
| lesshaste | Dr_willis: ah so you don't think the linux end would need any more than a functioning wireless card? | 13:04 |

| lesshaste | gyaresu_: model of? | 13:04 |
| gyaresu_ | DaveEngland: You saw the docs right? | 13:04 |
| Dr_willis | lesshaste: depends on the printer. You could get a wireless router and let the printer connect to that. and have the linux box wired in. | 13:04 |
| egoleo | oh now ma windows game plays fast and cool | 13:04 |

| Dr_willis | lesshaste: Ive just about given up on wireless networking. | 13:05 |
| lesshaste | Dr_willis: oh.. :( why? | 13:05 |
| gyaresu_ | DaveEngland: 'sudo' | 13:05 |
| DaveEngland | gyaresu_, yes i have tryed with sudo | 13:05 |
| Dr_willis | lesshaste: becuase its a total pain in the backside. | 13:05 |
| Quack3 | My Problem : I had trouble Booting in My windows using GRUB.. When I click XP's option my system reboots... If I try to install XP, MBR gets overwritten and I get "Missing OS" error. And I had to install GRUB again | 13:05 |
| DaveEngland | gyaresu_, i will paste, what it returns! | 13:05 |
| Dr_willis | lesshaste: it was easier for me to just run wires and make a gigbit network | 13:05 |
| gyaresu_ | DaveEngland: Is there a mount point with the name you are trying? like /mnt/iso | 13:05 |
| lesshaste | Dr_willis: :( I have my desktop on a usb wireless dongle connecting to my adsl box.. that is fine | 13:05 |
| DaveEngland | gyaresu_, -> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59670/ this is what i get! | 13:06 |

| lesshaste | Dr_willis: although I should say the rt73 that ubuntu ships with is completely and utterly broken | 13:06 |
| gyaresu_ | Dr_willis: Given up on wireless networking? Do you just mean with printers? | 13:06 |
| lesshaste | Dr_willis: you need to download the rt73-cvs then all is fine | 13:06 |
| Dr_willis | gyaresu_: ive ran wires. :) heck with wireless.. | 13:06 |
| Dr_willis | gyaresu_: i do have a networked printer - its 12+ yrs old now heh.. | 13:07 |

| kmyst | Jack_Sparrow: heh ya i know...i thought it was jsut me until we installed ubuntu on his and then installed amarok, of course all the security updates, etc. and boom...it crashes him out just like me | 13:29 |
| LimCore | hmm | 13:30 |
| Jack_Sparrow | kmyst, any similarities in hardware.. video cards perhaps | 13:30 |

| erawfish | fredmv: man wget, especiall -r | 13:33 |
| blahblahx | Jack_Sparrow: i asking a support question right? | 13:34 |
| htop | kris_ph: so the main difference is release schedule? | 13:34 |
| fredmv | erawfish, yeah, I'm in the man page right now. Thanks man. | 13:34 |
| butterz | kris_ph , wow thats a neat trick haha ;p | 13:34 |
| htop | encryptz: what's wrong with asking in an ubuntu irc channel? | 13:34 |
| andromda | I have the nv driver and It's working fine but when I activate the 3D restricted drivers it shows a small screen 1024x768 area and the rest is the backround of ubuntu. | 13:34 |
| butterz | i wish we had one of those in ##freebsd | 13:34 |
| gyaresu_ | kris_ph: How'd you go with the link? | 13:34 |
| htop | basically...if i download debian and install all the packages that ubuntu has in its releases. ill have ubuntu? | 13:34 |
| Jack_Sparrow | andromda, I need a pdf on your monitor.. your v/h rates look too low | 13:34 |
| butterz | andromda , then edit your xorg.conf or XFree86-4 | 13:34 |
| encryptz | htop: because this is a support channel, where people come for help. not general discussion. #ubuntu-offtopic for that | 13:35 |
| encryptz | htop: no, you won't. you'll have a broken box | 13:35 |
| butterz | htop, no | 13:35 |
| htop | encryptz: talking about ubuntu is off topic? | 13:35 |
| encryptz | htop: if it's not support? yes | 13:35 |
| andromda | Jack_Sparrow: what you need the specs? | 13:35 |
| Jack_Sparrow | andromda, I need a pdf on your monitor.. your v/h rates look too low vertrefresh and h-sync | 13:36 |
| Dr_willis | ubuntu has been moving farther and farther from debian with every release it seems... | 13:36 |
| kestir | encryptz: that isn't off topic at all. if you don't know the answer just keep quiet | 13:36 |
| Dr_willis | tryng to convert a debian box to a ubuntu box. was documented in a few places.. and lets just say.. what i read..wasent pretty. | 13:36 |
| AudioSenseCD | oisstttttt people be polite to them | 13:36 |
| htop | I was just thinking about trying a debian system. but wanted to know what i should be prepared for. | 13:37 |
| skillz | how do you kill resources in ubuntu.. ie see what resources are running and killing them.? | 13:37 |
| blahblahx | htop: debian is great | 13:37 |
| Seveas | Dr_willis, it's not supported, will most likely fail and can work beatifully iff you know what you're doing | 13:37 |
| Jack_Sparrow | htop, THis is a support room for people running ubuntu.. not a discussion room about the differences with debian which can lead to long drisuccions .. yes offtopic | 13:37 |
| ipe64 | htop: tyy sidux | 13:38 |
| butterz | htob, its harder | 13:38 |
| Seveas | in other words: it takes 15 minutes to install ubuntu from scratch, don't inflict the pain of trying to turn debian into ubuntu on yourself | 13:38 |
| ipe64 | try | 13:38 |
| butterz | more setup | 13:38 |
| Dr_willis | Seveas: or blow up like a.. err.. somthing that blows up good.. if you dont. :) | 13:38 |
| kris_ph | htop: if you want to install debian and want to learn more about it....visit #debian | 13:38 |
| Seveas | Dr_willis, blow up like an internet argument? :) | 13:38 |
| AudioSenseCD | kris_ph: Where r u from? | 13:38 |

| amenado | I made an expanded of liveCD iso into a hard disk so I can boot from it, but installing it once its go "live" somehow misses creating the /boot/grub directory with all the stage files on it and off course misses creating the menu.lst..why? | 13:42 |
| Seveas | encryptz, my first big linux lesson was rm -rf /var/lib (note to anyone reading: DO NOT DO THAT) | 13:42 |

| Aatu | Thank you | 13:44 |
| monk12 | dam first thing i try to do in ubuntu is switch to root user, then i say to myself, hmmm did the install ask for a root password? i remember creating first user which i named john and that password. i see though under him if i 'sudo mkdir spam' in / dir, he can create it. is the first user created the root user? | 13:44 |
| encryptz | amenado: everything else is in place? | 13:44 |
| amenado | encrypts well not totally successul because of those missing items | 13:44 |
| jcarlos21br | bom dia!!! | 13:44 |
| amenado | encrypts pretty much yeah is in place | 13:45 |
| gyaresu_ | jcarlos21br: espanol? | 13:45 |
| jrib | !root | monk12 | 13:45 |
| ubotu | monk12: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 13:45 |
| Dr_willis | monk12: first user has 'sudo access' :) | 13:45 |
| crocd | any grub wizards that can help me get mine working? | 13:45 |
| amenado | encrypts btw its not just grub, its the stage1.5 files is not copied over.. | 13:45 |
| jcarlos21br | gyares_: portuguese or spanish... | 13:45 |
| Itaku | where can i get more screen savers? | 13:45 |
| Jack_Sparrow | andromda, Sorry cant help you... those rates dont look right to me and without the specs, I dont know what to change them too | 13:45 |
| monk12 | k thanks. | 13:45 |
| encryptz | amenado: interesting. i guess you'll need to boot from another medium and kernel, mount the local filesystem, chroot to it, and install grub. however, that's a best guess | 13:46 |
| Seveas | jcarlos21br, #ubuntu-br or #ubuntu-es then ;) | 13:46 |
| andromda | Jack_Sparroy, the specs will be in the manual PDF of the notebook? | 13:46 |
| Jack_Sparrow | amenado, This is probably not the best place for help building your custom livecd | 13:46 |
| encryptz | !tab | 13:46 |
| ubotu | You can use <tab> for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. | 13:46 |

| Jack_Sparrow | amenado, I dont remember that in the optional ways of installing ubuntu.. What os are you trying to mount it under | 13:49 |
| gyaresu_ | afancy: Ah. Yep got that one. You need to add a line to /etc/eclipse to include java6... wait one. | 13:49 |

| mariamystar | bo^dick: yes, but then they all are when you use wubi | 14:07 |
| Bo^Dick | mariamystar: why doesn't it work to add a line into the fstab then? | 14:07 |
| === insomninja is now known as snow | ||
| === snow is now known as meh | ||
| mariamystar | bo^dick: i haven't trued addinga line yet, i don't know what line to add | 14:07 |
| Jack_Sparrow | mariamystar, Personally I think wubi is a terrible idea | 14:07 |
| === meh is now known as insomninja | ||
| Bo^Dick | mariamystar: i haven't used wubi myself | 14:08 |
| Bo^Dick | mariamystar: but i can access ntfs partitions | 14:08 |
| mariamystar | Kack_Sparrow: the only rason i don't go straight to linunx fully is because i plan to get a recording console, and i dont have enough money to buy a mac yet, and that means i'm going to need windows to run Pro Tools | 14:08 |
| jjozsi | hy | 14:08 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Bo^Dick, His problems are not with linux or ubuntu.. they start with wubi | 14:08 |
| Bo^Dick | what the hell is wubi? | 14:09 |
| mariamystar | Bo^dick: hahaha | 14:09 |
| jjozsi | hahaha xD | 14:09 |
| Jack_Sparrow | mariamystar, I dual boot .. works fine.. | 14:09 |
| Bo^Dick | me too | 14:09 |
| mariamystar | bo^dick: it sets up the pc to run ubuntu without installing linux onto a real harddrive | 14:09 |
| sebas891 | Jack_Sparrow andromda : they are nice laptop... but it's a fight to get linux working on them. I had a bangho working great with 7.04 but no luck with 7.10 | 14:09 |
| Bo^Dick | works lovely | 14:09 |
| kris_ph | how to install fastcgi in ubuntu|? | 14:09 |
| Bo^Dick | mariamystar: is wubi a ubuntu emulator? | 14:10 |
| mariamystar | bo^dickL but that means i'll have to format my harddrive, i have so much data on my windows partition that if i try to partition it now, it will ruin my data | 14:10 |
| andromda | sebas891, I have the 7.10 working fine with standard nvidia drivers with 1280x800 | 14:10 |
| sebas891 | Jack_Sparrow andromda : nope I don't have the working xorg accessible for now. | 14:10 |
| Odd-rationale | If i dual-boot ubuntu+xp on a machine that has DirectMedia (or whatever its called), will I lose DirectMedia? | 14:10 |
| mariamystar | bo^dick: no, it actually installs ubuntu, but the harddrive is a file | 14:10 |
| gyaresu_ | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wubi_(Ubuntu) | 14:10 |
| Bo^Dick | mariamystar: move the files then to another drive | 14:10 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Bo^Dick, Wubi uses a file to simulate a drive structure etc.. tries to contain it like that | 14:10 |
| Bo^Dick | mariamystar: now i'm starting to catch up | 14:10 |
| sebas891 | andromda: which model of bangho you've ? | 14:10 |
| mariamystar | :) | 14:10 |
| andromda | sebas891, I have the DS1501C | 14:11 |
| Bo^Dick | i planned my partition table carefully when i set up my stuff | 14:11 |
| mariamystar | i also dont know where my windows install disc is | 14:11 |
| andromda | sebas891, the only issue that I have is the webcam (m560X driver on development) | 14:11 |
| mariamystar | quite frankly, after using ubuntu for a few months now, i barely ever even touch windows | 14:11 |
| Bo^Dick | mariamystar: if you use "ntfsclone" you could ghost your win setup | 14:11 |
| Jack_Sparrow | mariamystar, Not knowing where your windows install disk is... (Not our problem) you must need to reinstall windows occasionally.. it has that whole death spiral thing.. | 14:12 |
| mariamystar | bo^dick: what do you mean "ghost"? | 14:12 |
| Bo^Dick | mariamystar: i've reghosted my win partition twice in recent time | 14:12 |
| Ken-away | Hi | 14:12 |
| meoblast001 | hello | 14:12 |
| Bo^Dick | mariamystar: a total image of drive | 14:12 |
| amenado | Jack_Sparrow-> are you familiar with that script you pasted? if you were, any idea why formatting the usb drive as ext2 and not ext3? my experiece with that is livecd will not boot off ext3 fs, only ext2 only...i wonder why.. | 14:12 |
| andromda | sebas891, other issue that I have is problems with screen resolution when I enable the restricted drivers of nvidia | 14:12 |
| meoblast001 | i have noticed a critical bug with the Intel Graphics driver..... where should i go to report this bug | 14:12 |
| Jack_Sparrow | amenado, must be ext2... | 14:12 |
| Bo^Dick | mariamystar: ntfsclone does this except master boot record | 14:12 |
| sebas891 | andromda: I'had the same problem with the webcam... to be honest I did not even tried when I saw the status of the driver. | 14:12 |
| andromda | sebas891, the rest is working just fine :) | 14:13 |
| Bo^Dick | mariamystar: so when you get virus that can't be removed you could either reinstall windows with all apps (hours or days of work) | 14:13 |
| amenado | Jack_Sparrow-> yeah have to be ext2, i have been looking around for excerpts on why that is the case of only accepting ext2 and not ext3, btw fat16 is okay to boot from | 14:13 |
| sebas891 | andromda: I've the bangho with the sis chipset... and it's a pain. | 14:13 |
| andromda | sebas891, I tried but the only thing I got is a big black image, and some times it hungs! hahaha | 14:13 |
| Bo^Dick | mariamystar: or smack back the image (done instantly in minutes at most) | 14:13 |
| mariamystar | right | 14:14 |
| Bo^Dick | mariamystar: plus that the image tool makes it exactly identical | 14:14 |
| Jack_Sparrow | sebas891, can you edit andromda 's xorg.. pull out the v/h and modes in her monitor settings and have her try it | 14:14 |
| mariamystar | bo^dick: i'm just thinking, that if ican mount this drive that i've made, then why can't i mount it on startup, ya know? | 14:14 |
| Bo^Dick | mariamystar: there by referred to as ntfs_clone_ | 14:14 |
| mariamystar | it might be a virtual drive,m but it mounts just like a real one | 14:14 |
| Bo^Dick | mariamystar: no idea | 14:14 |
| andromda | Jack_Sparrow, sebas891: great idea, I will try it! | 14:14 |
| mariamystar | hahah | 14:14 |
| Bo^Dick | mariamystar: add a script at startup somehow maybe? | 14:15 |
| andromda | sebas891, it is in http://paste.stgraber.org/1564 | 14:15 |
| mariamystar | maybe | 14:15 |
| mariamystar | alright, well thanks a lot Bo^dick | 14:15 |
| Bo^Dick | np | 14:15 |
| mariamystar | good day everyone | 14:15 |
| Bo^Dick | do i have to install a c++ compiler in ubuntu? | 14:15 |

| Bo^Dick | Jack_Sparrow: thanks | 14:16 |
| sebas891 | Jack_Sparrow andromda: I don't have the working conf on hand, I setup the laptop for a friend. | 14:17 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Bo^Dick, also most likely need kernel-headers for your specific uname -a kernel | 14:17 |
| amenado | henkdetank-> its pregnant or not pregnant? lol... its gotta be one way or the other than, cant be in between | 14:17 |
| sebas891 | andromda: now I'm trying to install a same model with the lastest stable version of ubuntu. (no luck so far) | 14:17 |
| kris_ph | hello... can anybody here point me to a link with guide on how to install fastcgi in ubuntu gutsy? | 14:17 |
| henkdetank | lol my hungover head has troubles getting around that one | 14:18 |
| andromda | sebas891, did you try the livecd of 7.10? It works great for me! | 14:18 |
| Bo^Dick | Jack_Sparrow: ok | 14:18 |
| Jack_Sparrow | andromda, http://paste.stgraber.org/1583 but make a copy of your old xorg | 14:18 |
| andromda | Jack_Sparrow, ok, will try it! | 14:18 |
| Jack_Sparrow | sebas891, where is it hanging up | 14:19 |
| sebas891 | andromda: yes, I tried... it hangs. I'm with the alternate cd now. but the keyboard is not working... | 14:19 |
| Jack_Sparrow | sebas891, try the livecd again.. 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 "--" | 14:20 |
| sebas891 | Jack_Sparrow: right after the USBcore detection. | 14:20 |
| sebas891 | Jack_Sparrow: I tried that :) | 14:20 |
| snm | hi all. i tried to write my own daemon start script and i put it into /etc/init.d/ . now i can start this daemon with 'sudo /etc/init.d/mydaemon start'. this works fine so far. but now i would like it to be started on system boot automatically. how can i achieve that? | 14:20 |
| henkdetank | so, does samba delete files completely, or does it send the files somewhere on my server (i checked .Trash but it aint there) | 14:21 |
| kestir | what is the keyboard shortcut to magnify the screen? | 14:21 |
| Jack_Sparrow | sebas891, just for a test... how about disabling the usb in the bios | 14:21 |

| Jack_Sparrow | kestir, do you have compiz installed | 14:21 |
| kestir | Jack_Sparrow: yessum | 14:21 |

| niquita | I'm trying to get a webcam up and running on my ubuntu machine. Supposedly it uses the gspca driver. Although the driver doesn't load automatically when I plug in the webcam, it does load properly with "modprobe gspca". I don't have a /dev/video directory though, so no programs are able to access the webcam. Any ideas? | 14:30 |
| Jack_Sparrow | cheers | 14:31 |
| ibbuntu | turns out that my gf's laptop has a unichrome graphics card, and there's a bug in gutsy which has been fixed in hardy, so I'll download Hardy alpha and see whether that works | 14:31 |

| Jack_Sparrow | Sin42_, envy is a bad idea | 14:34 |

| Sin42_ | Jack_Sparrow: currently running 169.12 | 14:35 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Sin42_, envy isnt needed for that. | 14:35 |
| sebas891 | Jack_Sparrow: yes, interesting... any way to pass the language and keyboard using the cheat code ? | 14:35 |
| Jack_Sparrow | sebas891, what about setting it to english for the install then changing it after | 14:36 |
| Jack_Sparrow | sebas891, what about hooking an external keyboard up for the install | 14:36 |
| Jack_Sparrow | sebas891, Just throwing out some suggestions | 14:37 |
| brobostigon | good afternoon, averyone. | 14:38 |
| DIL | where would i find the data for my mailbox for evolution - want to migrate my email to a new machine | 14:38 |
| Jack_Sparrow | brobostigon, morning :) | 14:38 |
| sebas891 | Jack_Sparrow: I just tried that :) no luck with that ( the external keyboard work fine to edit the boot parameter (f6 ... ) ) but does'nt respond after the boot process. | 14:38 |
| brobostigon | DIL: there maybe a hidden folder in youre home dir for that | 14:38 |
| Jack_Sparrow | sebas891, Im out of ideas... | 14:39 |
| DIL | brobostigon, would know the title by chance | 14:39 |
| KR-data | sebas891, what's the problem? | 14:40 |
| brobostigon | DIL: no sorry, but anable view of hidden folders in nautilus,and i am sure you will find it. | 14:40 |
| DIL | brobostigon, ty bro :-) | 14:41 |
| sebas891 | KR-data: i'm installing off the alternate cd, and the keyboard is not responding when I get to the menu (Ubuntu Installer main menu) even a external usb keyboard | 14:41 |
| sebas891 | KR-data: I'm on a fancy bangho laptop... chipset sis | 14:42 |
| KR-data | sebas891, ok :S that sounds like something that's out of my knowledge, sorry :( | 14:42 |
| Polarina | Is it possible to burn the ISO 9660 image file to a DVD disk and install Ubuntu from it? | 14:43 |
| sebas891 | KR-data: no problem. | 14:43 |
| brobostigon | Polarina: yes | 14:43 |

| Sin42_ | got nvidia 169.12 installed and glxinfo | grep direct tells me direct rendering is disabled, how can i enable it? | 14:45 |
| Jack_Sparrow | sebas891, not in the sense that you mean.. HAve you tried any other distros.. | 14:45 |
| skurakai | Hi. I update some programs and ATI drivers from Envy, and now can't shutdown (or restart) kubuntu. I have only black screen but HD and processor work. | 14:45 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Polarina, I noticed that last time I bought disks.. thosught it was odd | 14:46 |
| brobostigon | !envy | skurakai | 14:46 |
| ubotu | skurakai: envy is an unsupported tool to install newer versions of binary video drivers than provided by the official repositories. Use at your own risk, and remember that the latest version is not necessarily the "best". See « /msg ubotu binarydriver » | 14:46 |
| Jack_Sparrow | skurakai, There is a reson we tell people not to use envy... | 14:46 |
| Jack_Sparrow | reason | 14:46 |
| bassinboyl1 | amenado: because I have been using grub for about 5 years :) | 14:46 |
| skurakai | so you think that problem make Envy? | 14:47 |
| sebas891 | Jack_Sparrow: you read my mind! I'm have a suse image around... and a debian etch. I'll try these. I need to burn them. it's worth the try :) | 14:47 |
| Jack_Sparrow | sebas891, yes | 14:47 |
| Jack_Sparrow | skurakai, Most certainly | 14:47 |
| brobostigon | skurakai: its posible its caused by envy, yes. | 14:47 |
| sebas891 | Jack_Sparrow: but after lunch, see you. | 14:47 |
| Jack_Sparrow | skurakai, I would suggest you restore fom backup or a fresh install | 14:48 |
| Jack_Sparrow | sebas891, good luck | 14:48 |
| skurakai | hm. i'am lamer :) how can install ATI driver under kubuntu | 14:48 |
| kris_ph | I just read an article saying that lighttpd is better in terms of performance and speed than apache2.. So my question is.. is lighthttpd supported by ubuntu? | 14:48 |
| skurakai | i try http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Gutsy_Installation_Guide but doesn't work | 14:48 |
| linxeh | kris_ph: are you serving something like digg then ? | 14:48 |
| Polarina | skurakai: Last time I heard, under the Restricted Driver Management. | 14:49 |
| KR-data | skurakai, the restricted driver-manager should suggest is as far as I know | 14:49 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !doesntwork | 14:49 |
| ubotu | Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too. | 14:49 |
| amenado | bassinboyl1-> would you care to share your observation so we can learn from you? what symptoms indicates bootloader and not not something else? | 14:49 |

| linxeh | kris_ph: unless you are specifically having problems I would use apache. if you are having problems, then you'll need to be doing more than just looking at the webserver - for most people the overheads are in the applicatiosn they host on the server, not the server itself | 14:54 |
| andromda | Hi, everyonw | 14:54 |
| andromda | Hi, everyone | 14:54 |
| skurakai | now i know :) next PC must have Nvidia - but now have sux ATI :-/ | 14:54 |
| Jack_Sparrow | andromda, welcome back | 14:54 |
| andromda | Jack_Sparrow, sebas891: it worked! | 14:54 |
| Jack_Sparrow | andromda, I am so happy for you | 14:55 |
| andromda | Jack_Sparrow, sebas891: I have changed the xorg.conf and then installed the restricted drivers | 14:55 |
| amenado | kris_ph-> i agree with linxeh.. what exactly are you having problems with? | 14:55 |
| Jack_Sparrow | andromda, sebas891 left, but will be glad to hear it | 14:55 |
| kris_ph | Jack_Sparrow: can I ask you? Can you recommend lightttpd over apache2? | 14:55 |
| DIL | huh | 14:56 |
| andromda | Jack_Sparrow: now it's working with 1280x800@50hz with 3D enabled.. | 14:56 |
| nick_ | Checking for Xgl: not present. | 14:56 |
| nick_ | No whitelisted driver found | 14:56 |
| nick_ | aborting and using fallback: /usr/bin/metacity | 14:56 |
| Jack_Sparrow | kris_ph, I have no opinion as I have never used either | 14:56 |
| HelplessIdiot | Help required for "rescuing" a LVM/DMCrypt system after a rogue windows installation has overwritten the MBR. Anyone ever done that? | 14:56 |
| andromda | Jack_Sparrow: Thank you very much! | 14:56 |
| Jack_Sparrow | andromda, you are most certainly welcome | 14:56 |
| kris_ph | I don't have much problem with apache2 honestly.. it is just maybe than I'm a speed freak | 14:56 |
| nick_ | I see this when i running compiz in console | 14:56 |
| nick_ | Checking for Xgl: not present. | 14:56 |
| nick_ | No whitelisted driver found | 14:56 |

| elTigre | Hey, how can I switch my laptop's monitor back on? | 14:56 |
| Jack_Sparrow | nick_, please /join #Compiz | 14:57 |
| linxeh | kris_ph: you wont be able to measure it on a small site, and its hard to measure it on most typically larger sites too in my experience | 14:57 |
| elTigre | I find it impractical to restart X everytime I accidently close the lid | 14:57 |
| HelplessIdiot | The /boot partition is availble, however, all other partitions, including root and swap are encrypted in a DMcrypt LVM container. | 14:57 |
| Mudassar | how to join the alsa room ? | 14:57 |
| linxeh | we tend to use lighttpd for things where you need to serve lots of static imagery | 14:57 |
| Pirate_Hunter_ | hi need help getting flash on opera | 14:57 |
| linxeh | Mudassar: /join #alsa | 14:57 |
| elTigre | and vbetool dpms on only deals with my second monitor, the main laptop monitor is still dark | 14:57 |
| bassinboyl1 | amenado: nevermind, it's a storage issue, Error 18 | 14:58 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Mudassar, you were there.. for 2 seconds. | 14:58 |
| kris_ph | linxeh: experience is a best teacher.. have you tried both in different environment.. right? small site and larger ones? | 14:58 |
| amenado | elTigre-> http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/9780596101954/toc.html nice reading for tips on X | 14:58 |
| ctx144k | hello all | 14:58 |
| ctx144k | iam using ubuntu-server 7.10 | 14:58 |
| amenado | bassinboyl1-> seriously, i'd like to learn, shed some light on why you suspected it was bootloader.. | 14:59 |
| linxeh | kris_ph: if your cpu is sat 99% idle there is not much point in making life hard for yourself. we use lighttpd internally at work on one of our servers for serving up images, everything else is apache | 14:59 |
| ctx144k | is there a way to configure the startup - that i get login-screen (on console) after loading all daemons? | 14:59 |
| bassinboyl1 | amenado: I don't think my bios can handle a disk this size | 14:59 |
| amenado | bassinboyl1-> ahh okay.. | 14:59 |
| linxeh | kris_ph: those are small-medium sites (10,000+ hits per day) | 14:59 |
| linxeh | kris_ph: but hosting webapps as opposed to just simple news pages - some of them serve web mapping to things like nasa worldwind | 15:00 |
| ctx144k | at time i get login-screen on console before loading services like postgres and so on | 15:00 |
| elTigre | sorry that didn't help me at all, amenado | 15:00 |
| amenado | kris_ph-> you said it yourself best, experience is the best teacher, now go and try my friend.. | 15:00 |
| kris_ph | linxeh: uhuh! interesting.. | 15:00 |
| ctx144k | so i get informations in my screen like "* postgresql [OK]" and so on | 15:00 |
| linxeh | kris_ph: what are you hosting? just something for your own use on a lan ? | 15:00 |
| skillz | when u join a channel in IRC, and it says needs voice.. what does that mean, and how to enable it | 15:00 |
| amenado | elTigre-> thats a new book on X windows ..you have to dig up and read up.. | 15:00 |
| Pirate_Hunter_ | hi how can i get flash working on opera 9.2? | 15:00 |
| === nevermore_ is now known as nevermore | ||
| kris_ph | amenado: yeah.. but I don't like to test it myself that's why I'm asking those who have experience with these two flavors...m sure linxeh is honest.. | 15:01 |
| elTigre | sorry I won't ... | 15:01 |
| amenado | Pirate_Hunter_-> still at it huh? i dont there there was much progress since we tried it last week..heh | 15:01 |
| kris_ph | linxeh: company website with gallery2 | 15:01 |
| elTigre | I just want to switch the monitor on | 15:02 |
| elTigre | I won't buy and read a big book for that ! | 15:02 |
| amenado | kris_ph-> come on, you go and try it, i encourage you..you may learn a trick or two.. | 15:02 |
| Pirate_Hunter_ | amenado: hmmm last week? i wasnt trying to install flash last week...?? well do you know | 15:02 |
| linxeh | kris_ph: I wouldn't waste your time with lighttpd - by all means try it out for your own experience | 15:03 |
| bluefox83 | Pirate_Hunter_, from what i remember of installing flash, there's a .so file somewhere, it likely is symlinked to firefox directory...you need to follow the symlink and make another one in your opera directory | 15:03 |
| amenado | elTigre no need to buy the orielly book, it is online for you to read.. it has an index to seek what you need..maybe.. | 15:03 |
| linxeh | kris_ph: most people run apache, and thats what you'll find the most guides for. if something needs lighttpd you can run that too | 15:03 |
| elTigre | it doesn't cover the topic anyway | 15:03 |
| Pirate_Hunter_ | bluefox83: i know that but how do i actually do that what is the command? | 15:03 |
| amenado | Pirate_Hunter_-> if not last week, in the last two weeks maybe? am still not getting flash to work in opera... | 15:03 |
| kris_ph | linxeh: now.. can these two run on the same box simultaneously? | 15:04 |
| bluefox83 | Pirate_Hunter_, ln -s <actual file> <new location> | 15:04 |
| amenado | elTigre-> are you sure? you seem pretty quick on reading a whole book | 15:04 |
| Pirate_Hunter_ | amenado: oh i see still my head is still fuzzy | 15:04 |
| Cannon | hey | 15:04 |
| Cannon | am having a few troubles | 15:04 |
| sevenseeker | howdy | 15:05 |
| elTigre | no but I am quick at using strg | 15:05 |
| elTigre | +f | 15:05 |
| elTigre | ctrl+f | 15:05 |
| hischild | i'm having a problem with a dualhead setup between my laptop and a tv .. i followed the guide, used nvidia-settings, switched pal and ntsc, basically did everything that i could think of ... yet it remains black and white. | 15:05 |
| Cannon | i've installed azureus but how do I associate torrents with it? | 15:05 |
| Pirate_Hunter_ | amenado: check this tut out - http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-get-flash-working-in-opera-920.html | 15:05 |
| skillz | when u join a channel in IRC, and it says needs voice.. what does that mean, and how to enable it | 15:05 |
| amenado | Pirate_Hunter_-> but is it working for you? | 15:06 |
| Toshiaki | hola! | 15:06 |
| bluefox83 | Cannon, when you go to a website for torrents, and you click to download...use that little dialog box and tell it to "open with" and then click the browse button and find azureus | 15:06 |
| vignesh | Cannon, right click on any of the torrent file, choose properties and then Open with tab.. choose azerus from Add->custom command | 15:06 |
| splicer | Are there any vpnc experts here? | 15:06 |
| Cannon | yeah, i can find the directory | 15:06 |
| sevenseeker | I am having trouble creating a zope-2.10 site with mkzopeinstance (using python2.4) | 15:06 |
| sevenseeker | OSError: [Errno 1] Operation not permitted: '/var/deployments/openflow/./bin' | 15:06 |
| Cannon | but not a file to associate with | 15:06 |
| Cannon | as in I have no idea which one! lol | 15:06 |
| vignesh | Cannon, any torrent file.. | 15:07 |
| Cannon | the root of az are all .conf etc | 15:07 |
| Pirate_Hunter_ | amenado: havent tried it going to do it later still like i said check it out | 15:07 |
| andromda | anyone knows the best way to enable desktop enhancements in ubuntu like compiz? | 15:07 |
| ovo | hello | 15:07 |
| bluefox83 | Cannon, you likely need to look in /usr/bin | 15:07 |
| amenado | Pirate_Hunter_-> sure..anyhow it does not work.. | 15:07 |
| jrib | !effects | andromda | 15:07 |
| Cannon | yeah, i looked in there and it showed nothing | 15:07 |
| ubotu | andromda: Desktop Effects are supported on graphics cards that use the default Intel and ATI drivers and the restricted !NVIDIA drivers, except for the following, which are blacklisted due to stability/compatibility issues: Intel 965, ATI Rs480 and Rv350, ATI Mobility x300, x600 and x700 - Join #compiz-fusion for anything not officially supported by Ubuntu | 15:07 |
| andromda | I have tried it but I loose the windows decorator | 15:07 |
| Cannon | maybe they are all hidden | 15:08 |
| jrib | andromda: system -> preferences -> appearance -> effects | 15:08 |
| Baever | Hey! I am running a live session of Ubuntu 7.10 And am on the way to install it, but i have a very important and big folder on it and now is the time to partition the disks, I already have a ext3 partition and swap. Is there anyway to skip this step of the installation ? | 15:08 |
| sevenseeker | any zope users here? | 15:09 |
| isa268[FAN] | hello where can i go for help with compiz | 15:09 |
| AtomicSpark | using an rsync application on windows. is this possible? | 15:09 |
| andromda | Join #compiz-fusion | 15:09 |
| hischild | AtomicSpark, you want to sync between windows and ubuntu? i use scp for that .. | 15:10 |
| jrib | !nodeco | andromda | 15:10 |
| ubotu | andromda: If you're missing windows decorations after enabling Desktop Effects with an NVIDIA card, try « sudo nvidia-xconfig --add-argb-glx-visuals -d 24 » in a !shell. | 15:10 |
| amenado | Baever-> use a free partition and dont touch the existing ones if possible, you can re-use and old swap but thats it...also save your important files somewhere else before starting.. | 15:10 |
| AtomicSpark | i use rsync on my ubuntu machines to backup to a server. so yes its a ubuntu server that i want to back up to :P | 15:10 |
| blakeman | Hello, I'm having problems getting sound to work | 15:10 |
| bluefox83 | sevenseeker, from what i just read, zope is a web application server...i don't think you will find many folks here that use anything like that | 15:10 |
| linxeh | AtomicSpark: there is rsync in cygwin. there are some native ports too | 15:10 |
| AtomicSpark | k thanks. | 15:11 |
| amenado | sevenseeker-> those nice folks in #pyhton or #zope may of help | 15:11 |
| blakeman | I've been all over the internet for a week now and I can't figure out how to get my sound to work. I've seriously tried figuring it out on my own and can't do it. | 15:12 |
| hischild | i'm having a problem with a dualhead setup between my laptop and a tv .. i followed the guide, used nvidia-settings, switched pal and ntsc, basically did everything that i could think of ... yet it remains black and white. | 15:12 |
| blakeman | Can someone help me? | 15:12 |
| bluefox83 | blakeman, we kinda need a bit more info about the problem before we can help | 15:12 |
| amenado | blakeman-> i emphatize with you..its a tuff one.. | 15:12 |
| Cannon | hmmm, ktorrent has minimized but I don't see it in the sys tray? | 15:12 |
| blakeman | Aw this sucks bad | 15:12 |
| blakeman | What info can I tell you | 15:12 |
| fat-head | i just downloaded dark horizon lore its a .bin file how do i install it ?? | 15:12 |
| jrib | !sound > blakeman (read the private message from ubotu) | 15:12 |
| hischild | blakeman, can you be a bit more specific? like what laptop/computer you have? | 15:12 |
| sevenseeker | amenado > thanks | 15:13 |
| bluefox83 | blakeman, what sound card are you using? what configs have you tried? | 15:13 |
| blakeman | I have an Emachines W4620 laptop | 15:13 |
| Baever | amenado: But in this step the installation process only offers me to re-partition | 15:13 |
| amenado | blakeman-> umm try speaker-test | 15:13 |
| meoblast001 | what is the command i use to get the necessities to make a project from source? | 15:13 |
| bluefox83 | blakeman, oh man...emachine makes laptops now? D: | 15:13 |
| blakeman | I've been all over the Ubuntu support pages and tried everything I found there. It was working for a while and now it's not | 15:13 |
| hischild | meoblast001, build-essential | 15:14 |
| amenado | Baever-> no selection for manual ? | 15:14 |
| dbzhang800 | fat-head, run ./*.bin in terminal | 15:14 |
| skillz | in some IRC channels, it says needs voice.. what does that mean? and how to enable it | 15:14 |
| blakeman | The sound card is ATI IXP Conexant 97 SB400 | 15:14 |
| bluefox83 | as if their desktops weren't bad enough D: | 15:14 |
| jrib | meoblast001: install the build-essential package. You also need to install all the dependencies for the project as well | 15:14 |
| blakeman | Now the volume control icon has a red symbol on it and says there are no devices found | 15:15 |
| bluefox83 | blakeman, you're likely going to get to compile alsa from source... | 15:15 |
| towelie | Could someone help me get my wireless chip to work? | 15:15 |
| bluefox83 | i have a conexant soundcard, and i had to compile it from source as well | 15:15 |
| jimmygoon | What will FUSE do if the network drive is unavailable | 15:15 |
| blakeman | I have tried that (I think) at http://linuxondesktop.blogspot.com/2007/12/getting-sound-to-work-on-your-ubuntu.html | 15:16 |
| AtomicSpark | explode | 15:16 |
| bluefox83 | towelie, you need to tell us what kind of wireless card | 15:16 |
| towelie | its a broadcomm 43xx | 15:16 |
| towelie | 4303 to be specific | 15:16 |
| EpsiloN_ | hi | 15:16 |
| blakeman | I'm about to give up on Linux if I can't get this sound figured out | 15:16 |
| EpsiloN_ | How can I change language in Ubuntu? | 15:16 |
| bigdaddysky | towlie, have you tried the restricted drivers? | 15:17 |
| EpsiloN_ | what keys i should use | 15:17 |
| Baever | amenado: nope already checked there, the problem is that the folder is like 125 gb, so it would take a while to upload it to the net, partition and format the disks and then download it again hehe | 15:17 |
| EpsiloN_ | How can I change language in Ubuntu? | 15:17 |
| EpsiloN_ | what keys i should use | 15:17 |
| jrib | EpsiloN_: enable the language in system -> administration -> language support first. Then you can change your languague at the login screen by pressing the "options" button | 15:17 |
| towelie | bigdaddysky: I only have a wireless connection on here, I'm in windows. It doesn't have the software source for it, and Ic an't get it because of that | 15:17 |
| paolinuz | hi | 15:17 |
| amenado | Baever-> if it is that important, you know you'd take the time, if not, aw heck, just do it! as nike motto says..hehe | 15:18 |
| blakeman | Well thanks but no one out there seems to have a simple answere to this problem so later | 15:18 |
| towelie | my ehternet port is fried on this motherboard, I'm out of pci slots for an ethernet card, and I don't have an ethernet cable long enough to reach here | 15:18 |
| jrib | EpsiloN_: please do not pm, use this channel | 15:18 |
| === Kwitschibo_ is now known as Kwitschibo | ||
| EpsiloN_ | ok | 15:18 |
| EpsiloN_ | so how can i change the language | 15:19 |
| amenado | Baever-> am surprised that it does not allow you to have a choice to partition manually | 15:19 |
| bluefox83 | blakeman, ok, those instructions are missing a ./configure flag and i don't remember what it is, please go to #alsa you may have to wait for someone to answer you, but give them as much info as possible and they should be able to help walk you through it, they walked me through setting up my soundcard :) | 15:19 |
| jrib | EpsiloN_: at the login screen, press "options" and select your language | 15:19 |
| bigdaddysky | hmmm what version of ubuntu you runnig | 15:19 |
| EpsiloN_ | Gunty Gibbon | 15:19 |
| towelie | latest, 7.10 | 15:19 |
| Baever | amenado: hehe, maybee the best thing is to buy a new disk and just copy everything | 15:19 |
| EpsiloN_ | 9.10 i suppos | 15:19 |
| bluefox83 | EpsiloN_, you mean 7.10, as that's as far as it goes in releases so far... | 15:20 |
| EpsiloN_ | i want to change the typing language | 15:20 |
| amenado | Baever-> there you go, you came up with a great idea.. we all must do what we have to do to achieve the end...heh | 15:20 |
| bluefox83 | EpsiloN_, also...it's gutsy | 15:20 |
| amenado | Baever-> pr0n videos must be preserved at all cost..haha | 15:20 |
| EpsiloN_ | i want to use russin language now for typing | 15:21 |
| towelie | So if anyone followed me on my broadcom 4303 wireless card problem | 15:21 |
| EpsiloN_ | how can i do this? | 15:21 |
| towelie | I tried dling the files from http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/b43#fw-b43-old | 15:21 |
| jrib | EpsiloN_: did you try what I said? I've explained it twice now. What is not clear? | 15:21 |
| bigdaddysky | towelie, I know i had trouble with my broadcom 4318 card but i used the restricted drivers and it worked | 15:21 |
| towelie | bigdaddysky, when I try to enable it it says I don't have the system source | 15:21 |
| towelie | and I don't have an internet connection to get that source | 15:22 |
| bigdaddysky | o ic | 15:22 |
| towelie | I'm trying to enable internet, but I need the internet to do so :P | 15:22 |

| BronxAngel | anybody know the command line to start a second mysql server running on a different port and data dir? | 15:23 |
| amenado | towelie-> ummm have you looked in craigslist for el cheapo complete fairly decent systems? i mean below 70 bux perhaps? | 15:23 |
| DIL | towelie, so how are you ont irc, your laptop should have ethernet | 15:23 |
| bigdaddysky | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=405990&highlight=broadcom+bc43xx try this towelie | 15:23 |
| towelie | DIL, I booted back into windows | 15:24 |
| amenado | BronxAngel-> do you have access to mysql config file? look there and attempt to use a different port, and libraries? | 15:24 |
| DIL | towelie, use ethernet | 15:24 |
| towelie | DIL, my ethernet port on my mobo is fried, I don't have enough cable to reach here, and I don't have a pci slot for a card | 15:25 |
| BronxAngel | amenado: good point | 15:25 |
| DIL | towelie, i had a linksys card that used the referenced driver too may problems with it so i went and bought a netgear card that was half the cost and never had to look back | 15:26 |
| amenado | towelie-> not long enuff cable, again look in craigslist, its not overly expensive..people sells them for like 5 bux or so | 15:26 |
| fat-head | how do i uninstall a game that i installed using chmod +x "file" , then sudo ./"file" ??? | 15:27 |
| shachaf | On a fresh installation of Ubuntu on a computer with two network cards (onboard "8257EI Gigabit Ethernet Controller", and PCI "82557/8/9 Ethernet Pro 100"), I can't get either network card to work. Both are recognized, but with either DHCP or a static IP, I can't get them to connect to or ping anything. | 15:27 |
| shachaf | Has someone here had a similar problem? | 15:27 |
| LjL | fat-head: depends entirely on the game, it might not be uninstallable at all (that's why we recommend using packages from the repositories), see if the installer has an uninstall option, or see if the game got installed in /opt or /usr/local | 15:28 |
| amenado | shachaf-> it got an ip address assigned to it? | 15:28 |
| shachaf | amenado: No. | 15:28 |

| popey | bullgard4: are you using the i810 driver? if so, you should switch to the intel driver | 16:59 |
| popey | !i810 | 16:59 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about i810 - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 16:59 |

| shachaf | nauwra: This is going to be for someone who really won't want to mess with xorg.conf files. :-) | 17:00 |
| shachaf | I suppose I could have different xorg.confs with a script to switch between them. | 17:00 |
| nauwra | its not that hard, maybe make them a batch file to change when they want, or grub menu | 17:00 |
| shachaf | I'd prefer something that doesn't involve restarting the X server, if that's possible. | 17:01 |
| adac2 | nickrud: but i just wonder: normally it should add this entries automatically on installation? | 17:01 |

| maurin | sory again | 18:00 |
| RequinB8 | WantWebcam - make it easy on me and say you don't have a 64-bit architecture :P | 18:01 |

| WantWebcam | minimec, I think the best way for me is to post the output of dmesg into pastebin and give you the link | 18:03 |
| Kousotu | monk12: also should be in opions > choose session on he login screen | 18:03 |
| monk12 | it logs straight into desktop when i startx. no login screen | 18:03 |
| Kousotu | monk12: how did you pull that off? lol | 18:04 |
| monk12 | Tooommi: no login windows in Administration in gnome | 18:04 |

| minimec | WantWebcam: Good idea | 18:04 |
| geirha | monk12: instead of running startx, run "sudo /etc/init.d/?dm start" | 18:04 |

| ting | let see | 18:08 |
| Kousotu | wired: that's offtopic, but I will answer simply "no" | 18:08 |
| FJSS | Kousotu: no it auto logs me in but when the desktop loads an error message says it the keyring needs the default password | 18:08 |
| micadeyeye | it appears that ubuntu will wipe out all files on my PC | 18:08 |
| micadeyeye | should i try to install it again | 18:09 |
| Kousotu | micadeyeye: why not move the partion? | 18:09 |

| Kousotu | wired: my PSP is used as a PSP, not a pc | 18:09 |
| linxeh | ting: then you can do sudo update-java-alternatives -l, then pick the correct JRE, then do sudo update-java-alternatives -s java-1.6.0-sun (or whatever it is) | 18:09 |
| micadeyeye | Kousotu: how can I do that2A? | 18:09 |

| Jack_Sparrow | micadeyeye, You can try saving your /home folder to a usb or buring it... but the next time you are editing partitions.. create a seperate /home partition | 18:10 |
| Kousotu | micadeyeye: use the live CD | 18:10 |
| jrib | RequinB8: you run the python script helloworld.py by typing 'python helloworld.py' | 18:10 |
| monk12 | weird kdm and gdm seem to be conflicting. i started kdm, i see kubuntu login screen when logging in. i see in System menu -> About Gnome | 18:10 |
| Kousotu | monk12: that's because GNOM | 18:10 |
| Jack_Sparrow | RequinB8, something like python .mcompileall . | 18:10 |
| Kousotu | E is your default session | 18:10 |
| Tooommi | monk12: maybe you want to uninstall gdm | 18:10 |
| monk12 | oh. hah. i assumed kubuntu is kde. | 18:11 |
| RequinB8 | I'm just trying to get gedit to do it with a shortcut key | 18:11 |
| monk12 | no? | 18:11 |
| micadeyeye | what abt all packages that ii installed earlier? i have some source files in /opt/. will they be lost also | 18:11 |
| micadeyeye | ? | 18:11 |
| Kousotu | monk12: Kubuntu is KDE | 18:11 |
| Kousotu | micadeyeye: back them up | 18:11 |
| monk12 | so why does it say About Gnome. yeh i think an uninstall of gnome looking good now. | 18:11 |
| Jack_Sparrow | monk12, when you have both installed you will see some differences than you would if only one was installed | 18:12 |
| micadeyeye | I suggest that you make Ubuntu work like windows pls | 18:12 |
| ting | thanks linxeh, i was trying to installed using the binary from sun, but my system didnt recognize the new version, it sticks to the old one which i installed using the sypgnatic package manager | 18:12 |
| monk12 | darn. thanks guys. time for gnome uniunstall. | 18:12 |
| Kousotu | micadeyeye: we don't need another system that is fix or repair daily, thanks | 18:12 |
| micadeyeye | this is killing. can't recall all packages i installed | 18:12 |
| Jack_Sparrow | micadeyeye, Create seperate home and reinstalling isnt an issue.. it doesnt work quiet the same as windows.. just better | 18:13 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !clone | 18:13 |

| Itaku | tlhiv: it does but i dont think it goes to the internet. i dont know ive never used it | 18:35 |
| Itaku | tlhiv: well thats a reason to go into recovery mode | 18:35 |

| ronandi | lulz kk. First time installing ubuntu. I dled the x86 one, popped it in the drive, and selected the first option when the menu came up. The loading bars went, and then four lines came up, and started flashing on the screen. Then some colors flashed, and now theres a msg up on the screen saying: Ubuntu is running in low-graphics mode, screen and gfx card could not be detected. What should I do here? | 19:14 |
| nios | rausb0: looks quite small http://pastebin.com/m991db9a | 19:14 |
| Parsec300 | Jack_Sparrow, so how would you recommend me to get the latest drivers? Add another repository and download from there? Or just Catalyst from AMD? | 19:15 |

| satokun | I'm trying to move my home folder to a new, larger partition. I followed the instructions I had, and what ended up happening was that I copied the contents of home to the new partition ok, but when I tried to mount the new home, it gave me an fstab error. So I fired up my livecd to see things in a gui, and it seems that I've now got my normal home folder, then a subfolder homeOLD with the contents, and the contents on the base directory o | 19:16 |

| CorruptTerrorist | how do i search the content of files? | 19:41 |
| marcels_ | to connect to the server | 19:41 |
| santiago | hello | 19:41 |
| marcels_ | its somehow secured | 19:41 |
| amenado | CorruptTerrorist-> use sed or grep | 19:41 |
| bullgard4 | I downloaded http://fosdem.unixheads.org/2007/FOSDEM-LinuxKernel.ogg. I tried to play it using Totem. But Totem crashed almost at once. I could not find any error messages in the Gnome terminal. See also http://ubuntuusers.de/paste/109646/ http://ubuntuusers.de/paste/109614/ | 19:41 |
| marcels_ | and the port has to be "+6601" | 19:41 |
| azexian | CorruptTerrorist, if you type in cat filename | grep keyword, it will search the file for that keyword | 19:42 |
| popey | bullgard4: it's your i810 video driver | 19:42 |
| marcels_ | the + is important but the client doesnt mind about it i think | 19:42 |
| Squawk | marcels_, can you put all your post on one line, rather than hitting return every 6 words. Makes it easier to follow | 19:42 |
| azexian | CorruptTerrorist, grep also works on other things like dmesg | grep keyword | 19:42 |
| CorruptTerrorist | azexian, i need to search recursive directories | 19:42 |
| Leechzilla | I installed apache and php but the php pages are not loading.. It's showing up as a download instead of opening in the browser | 19:42 |
| marcels_ | yes ofcourse im sorry | 19:42 |
| azexian | CorruptTerrorist, ok, type find /directory | grep filename | 19:42 |
| bullgard4 | popey: I do not have a i810 but a i915. Does your statement still hold? | 19:42 |
| int_main | therethinker: hmmm, can you find the parallel port by clicking system>>preferences>>harware-information ?? | 19:42 |
| azexian | CorruptTerrorist, that will search for the file you want, or oyu can click places --> find, for a gui option | 19:42 |
| CorruptTerrorist | !grep > CorruptTerrorist | 19:42 |
| popey | i810 is the driver name, not the card name | 19:42 |
| friedtofu | hm.. use the xorg-intel driver? | 19:43 |
| popey | bullgard4: can you open a terminal and do this: | 19:43 |
| popey | bullgard4: grep i810 /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 19:43 |
| Squawk | CorruptTerrorist, what exactly are you trying to do? | 19:43 |
| PKKid | Anyone ever install Ubuntu fine then hit not beable to load it? | 19:43 |
| marcels_ | i want to connect on some ssl secured server, the port is "+6601" and i dont know how to enter it so the client connects to it properly. it doesnt work to connect to the server :/ | 19:43 |
| popey | bullgard4: and see if you get a line saying "Driver 'i810'" | 19:43 |
| PKKid | I get "Error Loading Operating System".. seems like my PC doesn't even notice its there | 19:43 |
| therethinker | int_main: yeah, I'd normally do that, but when I try to open Hw. info, it crashes | 19:43 |
| Squawk | marcels_, what type of client? what service? | 19:44 |
| CorruptTerrorist | Squawk, remove something from a php file... i need to remove all relevancies to the took time to load etc. | 19:44 |
| bullgard4 | popey: "detlef@MD97600:~$ grep i810 /etc/X11/xorg.conf; Driver "i810"" | 19:44 |
| popey | bullgard4: thats good, you're using the broken driver | 19:44 |
| popey | bullgard4: we can fix that | 19:44 |
| Squawk | CorruptTerrorist, I meant regarding the recursive looking in directories, but "took time?" | 19:44 |
| bullgard4 | popey: Ah! | 19:44 |
| azexian | CorruptTerrorist, you could use something such as gedit, press ctrl + h, then type what you want to get rid of, and leave the replacement option blank | 19:44 |
| marcels_ | im using xchat at the moment. i dont know what you mean by service. im trying to connect to some IRC server | 19:44 |
| popey | bullgard4: issue this command:- sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-intel | 19:45 |
| CorruptTerrorist | i just need to serch contents of files. thas all | 19:45 |
| popey | bullgard4: that will download and install the driver, but there is another step - let me know when you are done with that step | 19:45 |
| Tooommi | marcels: you wanna set the port manually? | 19:45 |
| ronandi | This is might the wrong place to ask, but is anyone good with String Permutation algorithms? | 19:45 |
| azexian | CorruptTerrorist, well use that option I suggested then, with grep | 19:45 |
| Squawk | marcels_, you want to connect to an irc server using a different port. Try /help connect using your client | 19:45 |
| === albita is now known as GaMe|OvEr | ||

| Squawk | CorruptTerrorist, you dont need the cat *, just "grep pattern filename" | 19:46 |
| prince_jammys | CorruptTerrorist: grep -r searchstring startingpath | 19:46 |
| Tooommi | marcels_: try an " / " after the server adress | 19:46 |

| CorruptTerrorist | how do i remove a directory? | 19:49 |

| CorruptTerrorist | thanks... annoying dir i couldn't get rid of | 19:50 |
| brobostigon | bullgard4: the proper command there should have been, gksudo gedit, not sudo gedit. | 19:50 |
| popey | brobostigon: wrong | 19:51 |
| brobostigon | popey: gedit is gui, therefore gksudo | 19:51 |
| popey | brobostigon: he had a terminal open, no need to use gksudo | 19:51 |
| nikrud | !gksudo | popey | 19:51 |
| popey | oh please, I know the difference | 19:51 |
| satokun | nikrud: ok finally got it up. | 19:52 |
| nikrud | popey: there is a reason: gksudo sets up the environment differently than sudo does, primarily changing $HOME to protect ~/.gconf | 19:52 |
| nikrud | satokun: ok, what's the link? | 19:52 |
| int_main | therethinker: are you sure you have a a parallel port? | 19:52 |

| satokun | nikrud: I believe / is mounted on hdc1 and home is on hdc3 | 19:53 |
| nikrud | popey: I agree, bullgard isn't clueless. But, someone might run sudo gedit , change a pref and suddenly a config file in $home is owned by root. Causes problems. So, we are careful not to suggest sudo with gnome apps | 19:54 |
| Squawk | solexious, try doing ./configure first, and run the commands one at a time. No need to put them all on a line | 19:54 |
| lordleemo | nikrud i totaly agree with gksudo but if u have used sudo before that then what ??? | 19:54 |

| tristanmike | hi all ! I've had a problem...I have an ATI X800XL card and 19" Flat Panel monitor. I installed the Restricted Drivers via the System->Administration window, but upon reboot, I get a "Out Of Range" error so the video isn't properly detected, can someone help me get this going ? | 20:03 |
| Sinnerman | vhozard: i can't say it does. i've never had to look into it, sound works out of the box for me. | 20:03 |
| nikrud | satokun: so, make the change to the home partition I showed you, that should at least get home mounted up correctly | 20:03 |
| bullgard1 | popey: vlc plays now the movie for 1 minute now already. | 20:04 |
| vhozard | Sinnerman can you open kmix or gnome sound mixer and say what kind of card it says? | 20:04 |
| popey | cool bullgard1 | 20:04 |
| satokun | nikrud: question: Will this automatically create the home directory on hda1? On hda1 now, the data is there but not in a folder called home. | 20:05 |
| Sinnerman | vhozard: it comes up as Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc SBx00 Azalia under lspci, which i know is wrong, because the manufacturer spec sheet specifically states it is a realtek HD sound chipm, and works with realtek's drivers. | 20:05 |
| bullgard1 | popey: So can you summarize? The old driver was at fault? | 20:05 |
| popey | yes, no longer supported bullgard1 | 20:05 |
| popey | bullgard1: although the intel driver you now have still isnt perfect, its a lot better than the i810 one | 20:05 |

| popey | bullgard1: for example it can set resolutions properley that the i810 one cant | 20:06 |
| nikrud | satokun: no, what that will do is mount the partition hdd1 in the position /home in the file tree. That will cause whatever directories/files at the root of hdd1 to appear as /home/<dir/files> | 20:06 |
| popey | bullgard1: it's called the "modesetting" driver | 20:06 |
| bullgard1 | popey: How can I repair the wrong font size of the login? | 20:06 |
| vhozard | Toooommi so you use laptop? | 20:06 |
| Sinnerman | vhozard: im using HDA ATI SB (Alsa mixer) but can also switch to Realtek ALC660-VD (OSS mixer) latter being most probably what the card is. | 20:06 |
| Tooommi | vhozard: sorry no | 20:06 |

| Maitre`Spike | hi :) | 20:21 |
| Seveas | slipttees, ah ok | 20:21 |
| slipttees | Seveas, do you have iftab file ? | 20:21 |
| int_main | tristanmike: go to this site and paste your xorg.conf: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org | 20:21 |
| Seveas | slipttees, I have a dapper box somewhere -- what was the question? | 20:21 |
| tristanmike | int_main, I'd be glad to, but be aware, I've had to use "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" to get my video back ;) | 20:22 |
| prince_jammys | sliptees: you need a line like this: eth0 mac 00:04:57:2d:26:c8 arp 1 | 20:22 |

| Sinnerman | vhozard: well, i may or may not be around. other people in the channel are more likely to be able to help you out. | 20:23 |
| geirha | slipttees: run ifconfig, it should tell the mac adress of each interface, then add one line per interface to /etc/iftab, like: eth0 mac 01:23:45:67:89:ab | 20:23 |
| tristanmike | int_main, will the changes to xorg be done after the reboot or can I enable the drivers and past that xorg ? | 20:23 |

| tristanmike | int_main, cool, will do | 20:34 |
| _TMS_ | Thanks =). Basically I'm finding it impossible to install Ubuntu (and any other distro - so far I've tried about 6-7) as my computer always freezes immediately after selecting installation type. I've asked around and it seemed to be the consensus that my graphics adapter was causing the conflict (On board SiS Mirage 3). I've tried running the normal cd, the alternative cd, text mode on alternative and a couple of live cd's but nothing gets around the problem. | 20:34 |
| IcemanV9 | veco: i don't know. i have external HD and it works every time. sorry. not much help on my part. | 20:34 |
| veco | lspci does not show it either any other secret command_? | 20:34 |
| xobius | _TMS_, did you try alternative cd install? | 20:35 |
| veco | i have external hdd alll work fine just the 2.5 inch usb powered do not work | 20:35 |
| _TMS_ | Also - to check if it was a bad burn, I ran an alternative cd install from an iso image on my hdd. | 20:35 |
| bazhang | _TMS_: did you try any boot parameters like acpi=off | 20:35 |
| _TMS_ | Xobius: Yep | 20:35 |

| int_main | tristanmike: yeah, sorry about that. But seriously, he might want to just wait a month anyways, since the new desktop-effects-enabled drivers also have up to a 50% perfermance increase over the older ones.... of course, you'd have to turn off desktop effects to play a game, from what I've heard... | 21:04 |

| RoAkSoAx | lee__, try clicking over network manager and then choose manual configuration, and then properties for your wireless network card | 21:20 |
| Carbonflux | depends on what you want to do with windows foibles, the biggest issue is going to be the way it emulates the graphics card so its not good for video games etc. | 21:20 |

| RequinB8 | can anyone help me debug a shell http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59738/ | 21:30 |
| Petskull | oops- thought I was at #ubunutuforums | 21:30 |
| RequinB8 | script* | 21:30 |
| yepe | if anyone see my mess answer please, i'm not sure that i install correctly, thanks | 21:30 |
| jrib | Leechzilla: weird, apache2.2-common should be creating that file... In any case mine is just empty. You can just "touch" it and see what happens if you want. Or we can try to delve deeper | 21:30 |
| Jony | i installed some program recently, i cant remember what it was | 21:30 |
| T_M_S | OK guys - bazhang advised me earlier to try running the ubuntu alternative cd with the acpi=off option. I had the same problem so does anyone else have a suggestion? To recap have tried ubuntu (and various other distros) and they all freeze-mid installation. It seems to be that my graphics adapter (SiS Mirage 3 on board) is causing the conflict. Anyone at all have any suggestions that might help? Pretty please | 21:30 |
| InvisiblePinkUni | int_main: I run somethings using GNUScreen... he just comes in and logs in at the GDM screen... then thinking no one is using the system... he switches it off | 21:30 |

| InvisiblePinkUni | baaaaaaaaa | 21:31 |
| Jony | i don't know what the problem may be | 21:31 |
| Jony | any ideas on how i can solve it? | 21:31 |
| Petskull | InvisiblePinkUni: do you know how he shuts it down? | 21:31 |
| lancerocke | hi all | 21:32 |
| Petskull | maybe you can just get rid of the icon | 21:32 |
| InvisiblePinkUni | Petskull: yes... how do I get rid of those Icons for non-sysadmins... | 21:32 |
| Petskull | wait- what about chmod'ding the 'shutdown' binary? | 21:32 |
| lancerocke | i want to automount one of my drives. can anyone help me by telling me what to put in /etc/fstab? | 21:32 |
| InvisiblePinkUni | Petskull: tried that... set shutdown to 700 in chmod... but doesn't seem to work | 21:33 |
| Roooty | HI, can anyone recommend a good DVD ripper which is regularly updated? (AcidRIp / DVD::RIP don't work) | 21:33 |

| Jowi | T_M_S, if several different distros fail I would recommend having a look in BIOS/CMOS settings. Set plug'n'play os to NO. if IRQ configuration is automatic set it to manual or to automatic if set to manual. If you have several graphic cards, enable only the one you want to use and disable the other one. | 21:34 |

| tristanmike | nickrud_, one more quick question, are there any ATI settings control panel the way there is the "nvidia-settings" to enable dual monitors ? | 21:35 |
| int_main | InvisiblePinkUni: click on system>>administration>>login-window, and go to the tab "local", and make sure "show actions menu" is NOT checked. This changes the shutdown menu, too, removing the power and restart options from it, if I recall correctly | 21:35 |
| MidgetSpy | hey guys how can I check what version of the intel video driver I'm using? | 21:35 |

| InvisiblePinkUni | ompaul: yes... changed that to -rwx------ root root yet, able to shutdown from normal user | 21:35 |
| T_M_S | jowi: thanks for the reply. I will try looking in the bios now. only got the one graphic adapter as it's a laptop, so it's even more awkward to get a new one that's less trouble. Tried installing today on gf's laptop with different graphics chip and it worked fine first time | 21:35 |

| VWinOC | 7.1 | 21:49 |
| Seveas | RequinB8, hmm, you might need a java channel there | 21:49 |
| T_M_S | There are 7 main menus, some of which have submenus 1. Main (contains sub-menus "IDE Channel 0 Master | SATA Port 1). 2. Info (bios version, cpu type etc). 3. Advanced (Execute Disable Bit) 4. Security (set passwords) 5. Power (LCD panel power saving) 6. Boot (contains submenu "Boot Device Priority"). 7. Exit | 21:49 |
| Seveas | RequinB8, iirc, having .class files is not enough, you need a .manifest file as well and possibly more | 21:50 |

| RequinB8 | Seveas: more then i've got all day, thanks | 21:50 |
| jrib | cliff_: if you wait a month, you can upgrade from 6.06 to 8.04 directly. Otherwise, you will have to upgrade 6.06 to 6.10, then to 7.04, and finally to 7.10 | 21:50 |

| jrib | Nitroray: that's shockwave, which is different than flash. Adobe does not release shockwave for linux. The only way to use it is to install firefox in wine and then install flash there | 21:53 |

| wilberfan | mDemocritus: nuthin' new... | 22:03 |

| VWinOC | do I need to format the drive before install | 22:03 |
| mDemocritus | wilberfan: huh... check what updates went through in the past week or so | 22:03 |
| MrOffbeat | seems like you have to modify your X11 file | 22:03 |

| === marko-_-_ is now known as marko-_- | ||
| SliM1 | help: my window borders are gone (after open arena crushed and i restarted the computer) | 22:04 |
| mDemocritus | wilberfan: good question... it might show in sudo tail -n 20 /var/log/apt/term.log | 22:04 |
| mDemocritus | but there's gotta be an easier way... i can't really check since i'm at work with no vnc | 22:05 |
| dlambert | i don't have a windows cd, just recovery disks for XP Media Center Edition | 22:05 |
| invalid_ | Does the Ubuntu DVD have all the software that is provided in Kpackage | 22:05 |
| bfrog | whens the next release, 04 ? | 22:05 |
| Jowi | T_M_S, I find nothing regarding that laptop. it looks rather newish. are you sure the bios version says Phoenix 1.08?! | 22:05 |
| SliM1 | oh, and the gnome terminal doesn't work (gnome terminal) | 22:06 |
| wilberfan | mDemocritus: the problem hasn't been mentioned by anyone else lately...? | 22:06 |
| SliM1 | bfrog: yes, as the version states | 22:06 |
| troopperi | !dualboot | troopperi | 22:06 |
| invalid_ | I cant assign ip using NetworkManager | 22:06 |
| bfrog | also, how would I switch desktops, like right now I have kubuntu installed but I want to use gnome instead. is there a easy remove kde install gnome? | 22:06 |
| mDemocritus | wilberfan: not that i've heard, but i don't get around that much | 22:06 |
| bfrog | cause I tried apt-get remove kubuntu-desktop... that didn't do what I would've hoped | 22:07 |
| wilberfan | mDemocritus: lol. OK...thanks.... :) | 22:07 |
| mDemocritus | wilberfan: i've just started lurking this channel | 22:07 |
| VWinOC | im going to try and load the alernate cd. thanks much for everything | 22:07 |
| bfrog | SliM1: thanks | 22:07 |
| mDemocritus | wilberfan: try dragging the little icons to the panel | 22:07 |
| SliM1 | anyone? please? no window borders :( | 22:07 |
| wilberfan | mDemocritus: you know...someone else suggested that... I think I tried that once...but let's see what happens... | 22:08 |
| wilberfan | brb | 22:08 |
| mDemocritus | SliM1: like you don't see the x or the title bar? | 22:08 |
| SliM1 | the whole border, titlebar & stuff | 22:08 |
| mDemocritus | SliM1: regular ubuntu, right? | 22:09 |
| SliM1 | mDemocritus: that's while using compiz | 22:09 |
| mDemocritus | with gnome? | 22:09 |
| SliM1 | yes, regular ubuntu | 22:09 |
| mDemocritus | SliM1: OH | 22:09 |
| mDemocritus | SliM1: common | 22:09 |
| aldaek | is there a way to switch to the development version of ubuntu and have it keep up with all changes.... 8.04 to 8.10 automatically or do you still have to tell it to update every time? | 22:09 |
| wilberfan | mDemocritus: No go. It's weird..they have complete frames and title bars... you can resize 'em... With nothing but a tiny little [whatever] icon inside the window... | 22:09 |
| mDemocritus | SliM1: it happened after you ran compiz -replace right? | 22:09 |
| mDemocritus | wilberfan: that' | 22:10 |
| mDemocritus | s wierd as heck | 22:10 |
| SliM1 | i can't run compiz -replace, because my terminal is white and doesn't work | 22:10 |
| dlambert | Sigh. I guess I'll just reinstall Ubuntu... It will probably be faster than trying to figure out another way. | 22:10 |
| ompaul | aldaek, ask in #ubuntu+1 and next up is 8.04 | 22:10 |
| mDemocritus | SliM1: does alt-f2 work? | 22:10 |
| tux97 | hi sorry about this but how can i get my sound to work i thought my logs were on sorry | 22:10 |

| mDemocritus | in the alt-f2 box | 22:11 |
| wilberfan | mDemocritus: I posted something in the Ubuntu forum--but haven't tried Google yet.... | 22:11 |
| prince_jammys | kingfrost: sorry, i was away. you can install kde apps in gnome with no problem | 22:11 |
| wilberfan | (man, it's JUMPIN' in here!) | 22:11 |
| RB2 | via SSH that is | 22:11 |
| prince_jammys | kingfrost: maybe someone had already answered you .... | 22:11 |
| joshudson | supposibly ssh -X | 22:11 |
| kingfrost | prince_jammys: I have had tons of issues with running KDE apps on GNOME | 22:11 |
| mDemocritus | wilberfan: try it first, always :D... most of the time it solves the problem | 22:11 |
| SliM1 | mDemocritus: well, yes, it doesn't help | 22:12 |
| mDemocritus | SliM1: rats | 22:12 |
| prince_jammys | kingfrost: crashing and such? | 22:12 |
| mDemocritus | SliM1: i think metacity --replace will get your borders back, but shut down the windows effects | 22:12 |
| kingfrost | prince_jammys: no, the just refuse to install | 22:12 |
| ub3r31337 | version ctcp | 22:12 |

| prince_jammys | kingfrost: apps from APT or from elsewhere? | 22:13 |
| SliM1 | mDemocritus: a bit off-topic, is there a way to start a program from the terminal (i. e., just start it, and get the prompt back as soon as the program has started) | 22:13 |
| parc3l_ | Hey peeps, How do i launch an EXE file within the Terminal ?? | 22:13 |
| wilberfan | brb | 22:13 |
| kingfrost | from symantic | 22:13 |
| mDemocritus | can someone verify that? metacity -replace fixes the window border wierdness with compiz, since it gets you back to the original WM? | 22:13 |
| Jowi | parc3l_, with wine | 22:13 |
| RB2 | joshaidan, thanks for the heads up. Unfortunately, it doesn't work. :( | 22:13 |
| nickrud_ | SliM1: try gtk-window-decorator --replace | 22:13 |
| kingfrost | parc3l_: a windows exe? | 22:13 |
| prince_jammys | parc3l_: wine path/tp/file.exe i think | 22:14 |
| SliM1 | parc3l_: [sudo] wine name_of.exe | 22:14 |
| joshudson | I never got it working either RB2 | 22:14 |
| joshudson | I finally took to forwarding as so | 22:14 |
| parc3l_ | Nope, its a program called Nmap i wish to launch in Terminal | 22:14 |
| SliM1 | nickrud_: the gtk window decorator works well | 22:14 |
| parc3l_ | im a compete Linux newbi | 22:14 |
| kingfrost | DO NOT SUDO WINE APPS | 22:14 |
| joshudson | xhost + on local machine (assuming secure LAN) | 22:14 |
| mDemocritus | SliM1: you can run a command in the background like this example: ls -l /home/user & | 22:14 |
| prince_jammys | parc3l_: sudo apt-get install nmap (you don't need the windows exe) | 22:14 |
| nickrud_ | SliM1: you might like emerald, install it and do emerald --replace | 22:14 |
| LewisSharp | Hi, I have a question on Samba. I have read the faq I could find with the topic's URL among other places, but while it helped me bring it up online, it didn't help me out with some problems I'm having with it now. I made share folders, while I can see the default print$ one, when I try to connect from windows to linux through samba, I get the login window and even if I do enter a valid user/password, I can't get in. Anyone would know why?from XP | 22:15 |
| joshudson | then ssh -R6009:127.0.0.1:6000 to remote | 22:15 |
| mDemocritus | SliM1: ending the command with the ampersand runs it in the background, but it can sometimes be wierd | 22:15 |
| RB2 | joshaidan, right now it's on a secured network, but this box won't be when I'm done. :( | 22:15 |
| nickrud_ | kingfrost: please don't shout, although that's something to shout about | 22:15 |
| SliM1 | nickrud_: i liked it just the way it was before playing open arena :)) | 22:15 |
| joshudson | and on remote DISPLAY=127.0.0.1:6009 xterm & | 22:15 |
| prince_jammys | parc3l_: there's also a GUI front-end if you want, called nmapfe | 22:15 |
| kingfrost | nickrud_: that's why I shouted it | 22:15 |
| Jowi | parc3l_, "sudo apt-get install nmap" and then open a terminal and type "nmap 127.0.0.1" (or the ipaddress you wish to scan) | 22:15 |
| nickrud_ | SliM1: ah, compiz & gl games don't play well together | 22:15 |
| parc3l_ | prince_jammys_: just putting in the command now | 22:15 |
| SliM1 | yes, it turns out they don't | 22:16 |
| mDemocritus | nmap is wicked sweet | 22:16 |
| prince_jammys | parc3l_: that will install it. then you can run it the way you probably did in windows | 22:16 |
| nickrud_ | SliM1: if you are still having issues getting it back to how it was, #compiz-fusion usually has people who know it well | 22:16 |
| parc3l_ | prince,,, where will i find it now ? | 22:16 |
| soto | Who in here was have trouble with their NVidia Go video card? | 22:16 |
| parc3l_ | it says its setting it up | 22:17 |
| soto | sorry, wrong chang | 22:17 |
| prince_jammys | parc3l_: you can just type "nmap" with parameters, to execute it. | 22:17 |
| emma | Am I also silenced in here. Can anyone see me? | 22:17 |
| mDemocritus | i see you emma | 22:17 |
| prince_jammys | emma: i can | 22:17 |
| * nickrud_ pretends not to see emma | 22:17 | |
| mDemocritus | lol | 22:17 |
| === nickrud_ is now known as nikrud | ||
| RequinB8 | If i have a regular expression for a filename that includes the file extension ie temp.doc, and I want to use the "temp" part with a different file extension in a shell script, how do i do that? | 22:17 |
| mDemocritus | ick... regular expressions are the devil's work :P | 22:18 |
| parc3l_ | Prince: Just did that, and it gave me all of the NMAP commands, is there anywhere to make the terminal specificaly for Nmap | 22:18 |
| * kingfrost pretends to push nickrud_ into emma | 22:18 | |
| RequinB8 | heh, i keep getting thing slike temp.doc.xcf or whatever | 22:18 |
| bazhang | emma yes we see you | 22:18 |
| RequinB8 | where i want temp.xcf | 22:18 |
| nikrud | parc3l_: you can install nmapfe , it's a gui frontend for nmap | 22:18 |
| prince_jammys | RequinB8: var=temp.doc; noext="${var%.???}" | 22:19 |
| mDemocritus | parc3l_ if you run nmap with no options, it gives an extensive help file | 22:19 |
| lancerocke | Can anyone help me with something in KDE? My menues have rounded corners and I want to UNround them. Where exactly do I do that? I've been in every system setting and im not sure where to do it. | 22:19 |
| parc3l_ | I believe that running from Terminal in Linux gives you more power over a program, which is why i want to run Nmap in terminal | 22:19 |
| mDemocritus | exactly | 22:19 |
| nikrud | lancerocke: the kubuntu experts hang out in #kubuntu | 22:19 |
| prince_jammys | RequinB8: var=temp.doc; newfile=${var%.*}.xcf | 22:20 |
| RequinB8 | prince_jammys - thanks, so if i wanted to put it as | 22:20 |
| RequinB8 | yes, thanks! | 22:20 |
| parc3l_ | I've got allot of experiance using Nmap in windows, thought i would give linux a go | 22:20 |
| mDemocritus | parc3l_: so open terminal, type nmap | 22:20 |
| mDemocritus | parc3l_: oh ok then... it's pretty much the same | 22:20 |
| nikrud | parc3l_: exactly true. the front end can teach you a bit, <virtual backspaces> never mind ;) | 22:20 |
| parc3l_ | Want to get more experiances using linux commands and its syntax | 22:21 |
| mDemocritus | parc3l_: although to get some low-level info like mac address, sometimes you have to run nmap as root | 22:21 |
| mDemocritus | parc3l_: the syntax is identical as far as i know | 22:21 |
| parc3l_ | sorry for my english, i am from italy | 22:21 |
| mDemocritus | parc3l_: for nmap that is | 22:21 |
| parc3l_ | ah right | 22:21 |
| mDemocritus | parc3l_: i can understand you fine | 22:21 |
| kmg | hey, I'm starting to get seriously frustrated here. I'm using the default sources.list with apt. I'm behind a router, but not a proxy. My source repos keep timing out, no matter what I try. What else could the problem be?? http://nopaste.com/p/a66N7qPwF | 22:22 |

| IcemanV9 | how good is pessulus (desktop lockdown for kids)?? | 22:23 |
| mDemocritus | LewisSharp: linux samba server, windows client? | 22:23 |
| bfrog | why doesn't apt remove meta packages correctly? | 22:23 |
| bfrog | like, I say apt-get remove kubuntu-desktop | 22:23 |
| bfrog | all it removes is that metapackage instead of all its associated packages | 22:24 |
| bfrog | is there some way to get the correct behavior? | 22:24 |
| joshudson | well that was annoying | 22:24 |
| kevind23 | When I boot up, I get a blank black screen even though I do not have usplash installed, and "quiet" + "splash" are nowhere to be found in my grub config | 22:24 |

| LewisSharp | yes Democritus | 22:24 |
| prince_jammys | DOOM_NX: irc channels? | 22:24 |
| mDemocritus | LewisSharp: you're not using access restrictions on the shares, right? | 22:25 |
| DOOM_NX | no, sound channels | 22:25 |
| DOOM_NX | :( | 22:25 |
| mDemocritus | LewisSharp: or maybe some, not others? | 22:25 |
| LewisSharp | Well, I gave a user full access to the shared directory. I made sure to add the user on linux and in samba. | 22:25 |
| joshudson | I just hope the mini iso doesn't try to downlaod and install the 400 mb installed by a release CD | 22:25 |

| Belboz99 | kmg: can you access Google? | 22:25 |

| mDemocritus | LewisSharp: k, was the username you used for him on the server the same as the one he logs in to his machine with? | 22:26 |
| mDemocritus | LewisSharp: and is that workstation connected to a domain, or is everything on workgroups? | 22:26 |
| LewisSharp | no, the windows user login is Luc, and on linux I made a linux user. | 22:26 |
| kmg | amenado: why am I getting that IP? a dns issue? | 22:26 |
| LewisSharp | workgroups | 22:27 |

| BobSlob | tux97: what card? | 22:27 |
| kmg | amenado: no, I'm using the default: http://nopaste.com/p/a66N7qPwF | 22:27 |

| T_M_S | Doh - seems Jowi has left now! Is there anyone else available who might be able to help? I can re-explain the problem if needed | 22:27 |

| crshman | is there a way to make dd verbose and print out some stats? | 22:28 |
| mDemocritus | LewisSharp: on the server level or the share level? | 22:28 |
| bfrog | I tried aptitude remove kubuntu-desktop, it removed only the 1 package | 22:28 |
| kmg | amenado: k, is there an alternate? | 22:28 |
| LewisSharp | what do you mean by server level? and yes share level. | 22:28 |
| bazhang | bfrog: you in gnome now? then follow that link and paste the commands from the page into the terminal | 22:28 |
| tux97 | bobslob not sure i'm reading the page troubleshooting sound and doing everything it says but now i'm lost about installing my ati soundcard | 22:28 |
| joshudson | I really do not believe that ubuntu-core wants 100 mb | 22:29 |
| amenado | kmg i dont know, if not, you have to be patient and wait til it becomes available | 22:29 |
| mDemocritus | LewisSharp: you do start->run, \\server_ip then ok | 22:29 |
| kmg | amenado: i've been having this problem for weeks | 22:29 |

| amenado | kmg which is totally different address from your previous posting..so use this one | 22:32 |
| mDemocritus | LewisSharp: click finish, see if it works | 22:32 |
| client | co_451k | 22:32 |

| === client is now known as co_451k | ||

| BobSlob | tux97: wish i could help... stuck myself | 22:32 |
| amenado | kmg you can hard code the ip address, if you find things are faulty | 22:33 |
| mcquaid | with grub how does one know if hd(0) is the first sata drive or the first ide? | 22:33 |
| LewisSharp | same results, ask for a password/login again and again as if the one I provide is not working or something | 22:33 |

| pontu1 | hey | 22:33 |

| tux97 | its ok bobslob this new laptop has isuses lol my other one works just fine with linux | 22:33 |
| pontu1 | just set up ubuntu today and got my E220 usb 3g modem working | 22:33 |

| crshman | how do i check for bad blocks on a disk? | 22:34 |
| pontu1 | but i cant install anything with the add/remove applications.. :/ | 22:34 |
| albyyx | well as i told you installed kde and removed it with sudo aptitude, to that point. all fine, but the kde apps keep on being in my gnome menu, like amarok konkeror and others, now i've launched a synaptic and checking for kde i see them all under the gnome icon, like if they were still installed | 22:34 |
| albyyx | that's more or less it bazhang so i wanted to make sure that i can remove them from synaptic without danger | 22:34 |
| gluer_ | if i have two cisco n1 wireless cards (detected) and i have two cisco n1 waps can i bridge the two cards and get 600meg? | 22:35 |
| crshman | will dd if=/dev/sdb of=/dev/null find bad blocks? | 22:35 |
| nikrud | !gutsysources | pontu1 do this, then try add/remove again | 22:35 |
| ubotu | pontu1 do this, then try add/remove again: 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). | 22:35 |
| mDemocritus | LewisSharp: if you disable access restrictions, does it do the same thing? | 22:35 |
| bazhang | http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/puregnome albyyx will get rid of all kde stuff | 22:35 |
| albyyx | nope bazhang already did it, and it's still there | 22:35 |

| joshudson | let's try this again. I want to download and install just ubuntu-minimal and dependencies. The mini iso doesn't do that. | 22:37 |
| albyyx | they work bazhang | 22:38 |

| xb3rtx | does anyone know of any smartdraw like programs for linux | 22:39 |
| nikrud | !debootstrap | joshudson should do the job for youi | 22:39 |
| ubotu | joshudson should do the job for youi: debootstrap is used to create a !Debian or Ubuntu base system from scratch, without requiring the availability of !dpkg or !APT. It does this by downloading !.deb files from a mirror site, and carefully unpacking them into a directory you can eventually !chroot into. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebootstrapChroot for more information | 22:39 |
| albyyx | i have it opened still no worries i was just seeing again the link, problem is that i dont remember if i used apt-get or aptitude.. but i should be able to see that in the console... hold on please... | 22:40 |
| joshudson | parkinm, it has got to be through ifconfig; however they took it out of the manual | 22:40 |
| joshudson | i think it's property ether or something like that | 22:40 |
| joshudson | might also be hwaddr | 22:40 |

| tux97 | bobslob what kind of puter do u have? | 22:41 |
| albyyx | hmmm bazhang this is strange, i installed with sudo aptitude iinstall kubuntu-desktop and i removed it with sudo aptitude remove kubuntu-desktop as in the link, i tried once again and says no packages to remove but there must be some package (more than *some*) because the apps are there and i can see them from synaptic... | 22:41 |
| kmg | amenado: using the IP directly didn't work, it's still trying to lookup 63.149.98.50 for some reason | 22:41 |
| amenado | kmg paste your sources.list | 22:42 |
| parkinm | nikrud: im just running the standard install of 7.10 | 22:42 |
| parkinm | alt-f2 isnt working however | 22:42 |
| amenado | kmg also which dns server are you using? lets see if it resolves for me | 22:42 |
| nikrud | parkinm: ah. | 22:42 |
| bazhang | albyyx: you need to paste into the console the long list of packages on that link puregnome; just doing kubuntu-desktop is not enough | 22:42 |
| albyyx | ah i see that's the step i missed thanks a lot bazhang :)))) | 22:42 |
| nikrud | parkinm: ah. apps->accessories->terminal, type metacity --replace , then type exit | 22:43 |

| Pelo | nikrud, is that you with a c missing ? | 22:46 |
| kmg | is there a way to confirm that my apt is looking at the sources.list located at /etc/apt/sources.list ? | 22:46 |
| amenado | kmg i dont know what is going on at your end, it resolves to that address 91.189.88.45 91.189.88.46 91.189.88.31 | 22:47 |

| nauwra | i can run aticonfig, just afraid what happens | 22:54 |
| ccharles` | nauwra: unfortunately, I only have nvidia machines here at home | 22:54 |
| nauwra | thats with 7.10 ccharles` ? | 22:54 |
| ccharles` | nauwra: it should back up your old config, but you can always back it up manually if you want. | 22:55 |
| ccharles` | nauwra: yes, with 7.10 | 22:55 |
| nauwra | the xorg.conf is all it changes, right? | 22:55 |
| ccharles` | nauwra: of course, ymmv | 22:55 |
| ccharles` | nauwra: yes, afaik | 22:55 |
| nauwra | i'm using an x800 so i'm thinking we might see similar results. thanks ccharles` | 22:55 |
| Vlet | Anyone know why when I ssh into my system, characters what should show up as "'" show up as those strange A's with accents, etc? | 22:56 |
| nauwra | should I run aticonfig --initial? or is there a cmd to just set up the opengl part? | 22:57 |
| ccharles` | nauwra: from my memory, I think you want to use --initial | 22:58 |

| kee | looking for support of my network on ubuntu gutsy | 23:13 |
| marion | amenado, I am told that the login failed. | 23:14 |
| FreakGuard | RickKnight, hardy is still on testing :D | 23:14 |
| chickenFuego | marion, so ssh is not installed on your desktop computer, sudo apt-get install ssh | 23:14 |
| FreakGuard | RickKnight, but maybe your kernel doesn't include udev or ext3 support (but i think you used the generic, so that can't really be the problem) | 23:14 |
| RickKnight | FreakGuard: Not sure what you mean. I upgradedd from feisty to gutsy. | 23:14 |
| kee | I ran into trobule after configuring vmware server on my gutsy workstation. I loaded Windows server and all was fine. I rebooted my gutsy machine and now I cannot get out to the internet. | 23:14 |
| FreakGuard | RickKnight, ah, damn | 23:14 |
| FreakGuard | RickKnight, sorry, i'm tired | 23:15 |
| chickenFuego | marion, did you try "nmap NAME_OF_YOUR_SERVER" or "nmap IP_OF_YOUR_SERVER"? | 23:15 |
| FreakGuard | missread | 23:15 |
| kee | It will talk to inside machies once the vmnet adaptors are disabled | 23:15 |
| RickKnight | Fiesty used udev and ext3 | 23:15 |
| marion | chickenFuego, I did the apt-get ssh and it says I already have the newest version. | 23:15 |
| RickKnight | I can boot my old Feisty kernel | 23:15 |
| DOOM_NX | is *ANYBODY* willing to help me swap sound channels? | 23:15 |
| marion | chickenFuego, I used nmap NAME_OF_SERVER | 23:15 |
| chickenFuego | marion, if you do "ping NAME_OF_YOUR_DESKTOP", what does it say? | 23:16 |
| soto | Never mind. I figured it out myself. gtk-displayconfig was the name. | 23:16 |
| Pelo | DOOM_NX, if we knew how to do it we would try to , consider doing a search in the forum www.ubuntuforums.org | 23:16 |
| amenado | Jones-> when you try to boot from liveCD you get that blank screen? can you try a boot param like noacpi apci=off ? | 23:16 |
| FreakGuard | RickKnight, perhaps because gusty uses sata even for hd, so all hd's are /dev/sdxX | 23:16 |
| anteaya__ | pbjman: tried unzip _.zip no luck http://pastie.caboo.se/166183 | 23:16 |
| kee | sound familiar? | 23:17 |
| RickKnight | FreakGuard, I have no /dev/sd either. No disks at all | 23:17 |
| pbjman | kleth: To be honest, I have no idea... I've never had to patch an alsa driver :P | 23:17 |
| kee | can I get any help with my networking problems? | 23:17 |
| Jones | Can someone directly talk to me? I need help with booting into ubuntu 7.04 or 7.10 with and emachines | 23:17 |
| kingfrost | anyone know what package I need to reencode MPEG videos to MP4? | 23:17 |
| marion | chickenFuego, I can ping it. I can even see it in my Samba workgroup. I simply am not allowed to login to it for some reason. | 23:17 |
| FreakGuard | RickKnight, that sounds kinda wired | 23:17 |
| lilg111111 | does anybody know how to make lexmark printers work with gusty | 23:18 |
| amenado | Jones-> am trying to assist you, but you have to use the nick on the front so I do not miss your responses | 23:18 |
| FreakGuard | RickKnight, perhaps reinstall your gusty kerne | 23:18 |
| mDemocritus | kee: just describe the problem ask the question | 23:18 |
| FreakGuard | lilg111111, www.google.com | 23:18 |
| pbjman | anteaya__: Did you check the md5? Try redownloading it | 23:18 |
| DOOM_NX | Pelo, i am searching but i can't find anything :( | 23:18 |
| RickKnight | FreakGuard. On boot, I get dumped to a busybox shell. | 23:18 |
| anteaya__ | pbjman: i will check | 23:18 |
| DOOM_NX | see i have to swap rear left channel with rear right | 23:18 |
| lilg111111 | FreakGuard, i tried that and i didnt find anything | 23:18 |
| Jones | Im sorry amenado. Im new to this. How do I do that? | 23:18 |
| amenado | marion get on the terminal of the ubuntu, then ssh localhost and see if you get any responses | 23:18 |
| kleth | pbjman: Hm, I'll try to download the Internet in my search for an answer then ;-P But thanks for looking, and responding :-P | 23:18 |
| FreakGuard | lilg111111, some ubuntu wiki? | 23:18 |
| kee | can anyone help me with a networking problem in gutsy? | 23:18 |
| FreakGuard | RickKnight, sorry, too complicated for me | 23:18 |
| amenado | Jones-> you type my nick at the front always, | 23:18 |
| chickenFuego | marion, if nmap is not listing the port 22 for your desktop, there is something wrong.. how are the computer connected? | 23:19 |
| Pelo | DOOM_NX, I don'T know much about it , but I'm willing to give it a shot, can you define a bit more what you mean by switching channel ? | 23:19 |
| pbjman | kleth: I only regret I couldn't be of more help. | 23:19 |
| RickKnight | FreakGuard, I thought about reinstalling the kernel. | 23:19 |
| mDemocritus | !ask | kee | 23:19 |
| ubotu | kee: 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. :-) | 23:19 |
| Jones | amenado-> like this? | 23:19 |
| RickKnight | Thanks FreakGuard | 23:19 |
| amenado | kee what is the problem? | 23:19 |
| FreakGuard | RickKnight, good idea | 23:19 |
| amenado | Jones affirmative | 23:19 |
| chickenFuego | marion, well and do a "nmap localhost" on your desktop. You should see the port 22 there at least. | 23:19 |
| marion | chickenFuego, they are connect through my wifi. I am using DHCP so I don't have static IP addresses. | 23:19 |
| Jones | amenado-> Yes I hava a live cd for both 7.04 and 7.10 either one..I dont care | 23:19 |
| anteaya__ | pbjman: i don't think an md5sum is supplied and i have downloaded about 5 times already just to ensure it wasn't a downloading problem | 23:19 |
| === JimpsEd is now known as Sardukar | ||
| amenado | chickenFuego-> i think it is best if he can attempt an ssh login locally from his ubuntu first | 23:20 |
| kee | I'm new two irc... I typed in the question already and no one said anything. | 23:20 |
| pbjman | anteaya__: Corrupt file maybe... file link? | 23:20 |
| kleth | pbjman: It's ok, looks like I'm not the only one having trouble with this issue. Hopefully someone got an answer out there :-) | 23:20 |
| amenado | Jones-> okay use 7.10 and boot, tell me what the errors are if any | 23:20 |
| pbjman | kleth: yeah, that's what I tended to notice... quite a few no reply posts. | 23:20 |
| anteaya__ | pbjman: http://code.google.com/p/blueprintcss/downloads/list | 23:20 |
| DOOM_NX | Pelo see: I've connected 4 speakers on my soundcard. 2 front 2 rear. The front ones are playing fine. But the rear ones (due to wire length limitations) have to be swaped. This means Rear Right channel should play the sound of Rear Left and vice versa. How can I do it? | 23:20 |
| chickenFuego | amenado, yes, marion could try this too. but nmap never lies! | 23:20 |
| amenado | kee-> repeat the question but be very specific and clear of your explanation | 23:21 |
| kleth | pbjman: Mm :-( | 23:21 |
| anteaya__ | pbjman: the 0.7.1 release | 23:21 |
| ^u^ | kee, you don't ask for help here - start of with the question that needs addressing | 23:21 |
| amenado | chickenFuego-> nmap is secondary..one must be able to login via ssh first | 23:21 |
| Pelo | DOOM_NX, ok I get the issue, let me investigate a bit and get back to you , hold on | 23:21 |
| BobSlob | DOOM_NX: whynot just get longer wires? =D | 23:21 |
| kingfrost | anyone know what package I need to reencode MPEG videos to MP4? | 23:21 |
| kee | I was working fine before installing vmware server on gutsy. As a matter of fact, it worked the whole time until I rebooted. My ubuntu machine now will not connect to the internet. i can talk to other machines on the network if I disable the vmnet I can talk to the hosts inside my network, I just cant get out to the internet. | 23:21 |
| DOOM_NX | BobSlob, good question man, but i just figured i could have a 4.0 system | 23:21 |
| marion | chickenFuego, I am restarting the desktop. It is acting funny. | 23:22 |
| chickenFuego | marion, if ssh is ok locally, login to your router and check the forwarded/closed ports. open the 22 then. | 23:22 |
| Jones | amenado-> ok ill check back later and tell you what happened. | 23:22 |
| BobSlob | DOOM_NX: the rear speakers arent the same? | 23:22 |
| kingfrost | anyone know of a PSP media manager for Linux? | 23:22 |
| Ax-Ax | How do i disable ntp to use ntpdate instead? | 23:22 |
| pbjman | anteaya__: worked for me, http://pastebin.com/d37b985f6 | 23:22 |
| amenado | kee-> paste in pastebin your ifconfig; iwconfig; cat /etc/resolv.conf and route -n results | 23:22 |
| Jones | kingfrost->I use prism to encode videos. jodix.com also has a good convertor. Hope this helps | 23:23 |
| amenado | Jones-> okay, if not me, someone else will pickup, just use the nick in front so they can know you are corresponding with them | 23:23 |
| DOOM_NX | BobSlob, they are not identical to the front speakers | 23:23 |
| chickenFuego | amenado, no, first: is ssh running, second: can I login with this particular user. | 23:23 |
| Jones | amenado-> ok thanks for the help.. | 23:23 |
| chickenFuego | and third, can the second comptuer go through this port to access the ssh server. | 23:23 |
| DOOM_NX | Pelo, swapping all left with all right speakers can work too, i can psysically swap front speakers' cables | 23:24 |
| amenado | chickenFuego-> yes, i said ssh must be working, nmap is secondary | 23:24 |
| pollo | orales la wea | 23:24 |
| BobSlob | DOOM_NX: but to each other? | 23:24 |
| kingfrost | Jones: will it support Windows formats? | 23:24 |

| Ward1983 | lol | 23:38 |
| pdb_ | mew how do i resurrect gnome? :( | 23:38 |
| FreakGuard | anteaya__, download a zip? :D | 23:38 |
| anteaya__ | FreakGuard: that's where i started and i can't unzip | 23:39 |
| Mew | logging out and in again should take care of that, pdb | 23:39 |
| marion | amendo, I did ssh from laptop to desktop using IP address and I am able to connect. | 23:39 |
| anteaya__ | FreakGuard: so someone else in channel downloaded and unzipped it no problem | 23:39 |
| kingfrost | what's the build essential package? | 23:39 |
| kee | how can I change the fact that I dont have a gateway? | 23:39 |
| amenado | marion-> so now what is the issue? | 23:39 |
| fausto | ciao | 23:39 |
| Pelo | DOOM_NX, if you type amixer in the terminal doyou get an output ? | 23:39 |
| chickenFuego | marion, can you do a nmap again from your laptop? | 23:39 |
| tux97 | bobslob any luck? | 23:39 |
| anteaya__ | FreakGuard: any ideas how i can assess the unzip portion of the os? | 23:39 |
| ccharles` | anteaya__: are you sure the file isn't corrupted? did you compare md5 or sha1 hashes? | 23:39 |
| marion | amenado, I am using DHCP so the IP address might change. | 23:39 |
| amenado | kee re-establish the dhcp connection from your router, ie re-acquire the ip address am assuming you are using dhcp | 23:40 |
| chickenFuego | marion: on your laptop: nmap 192.168.1.100 | 23:40 |
| DOOM_NX | Pelo let me try | 23:40 |
| Jones | kingfrost-> not sure if this is what you need but handbrake is a really popular program on mac. they have a build for linux...http://handbrake.fr/?article=download | 23:40 |
| chickenFuego | marion: can you read 22 - ssh open now? | 23:40 |
| DOOM_NX | yes i do | 23:40 |
| amenado | marion so what if it changes? what is the exact issue? | 23:40 |
| ccharles` | anteaya__: try zipping some files and then unzipping them | 23:40 |
| kingfrost | Jones: That's for DVDs, not video files | 23:40 |
| Pelo | DOOM_NX, this is what I am looking at right now , not your problem but relating to the same stuff http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=346027&highlight=left+right+speaker | 23:41 |
| Jones | kingfrost-> ok. | 23:41 |
| anteaya__ | ccharles: no i'm not sure but i did download 5 times and the site doesn't provide an md5 or a sha1. Someone else in channel downloaded and unzipped the same file successfully as a test though | 23:41 |
| anteaya__ | ccharles: okay | 23:41 |
| VoiDeT | Hey everyone! | 23:41 |
| amenado | chickenFuego-> you love that nmap so much huh? hehe | 23:41 |
| DOOM_NX | do u need that output? | 23:41 |
| marion | chickenFuego, it didn't like my usage of nmap. What is the right cmd? | 23:41 |
| jasam | chickenFuego, well, I think I found it, finally the package is libssl-dev, I was wrongly thinking in openssh, thank you very much and also to mDemocritus | 23:41 |
| ccharles` | anteaya__: you could also get whoever in the channel tried unzipping for you to generate a hash of the file, and compare yours to theirs | 23:41 |
| chickenFuego | amenado, it would be nice to know if the port has been oppened or if it was just woodoo! | 23:41 |
| marion | amenado, I want to create a desktop shortcut that will use the computer name so I can connect even if the IP address changes. | 23:42 |
| anteaya__ | ccharles: i will try zipping and unzipping first and then try that next, thank you | 23:42 |
| texasmom | hi | 23:42 |
| RequinB8 | hi texasmom | 23:42 |
| adrian_2002ca | hi dudes and dudees | 23:43 |
| amenado | marion-> how many pc do you have in your subnet? two? its not too or overly difficult to put their ip addresses in /etc/hosts and pointing to same name | 23:43 |
| VoiDeT | Hey ppl, i resized two of my lvm volumes from command, now when i reboot, during the halt process it says that the var mount (which i resized) is busy and is now set to read-only. Is this just process related? Or should i be worried about data not being saved properly? | 23:43 |
| stringCh1ese | someone someone cross their fingers for me | 23:43 |
| stringCh1ese | about to flash the rom... | 23:43 |
| === Flare183 is now known as FlareBot | ||
| VoiDeT | *cross* | 23:43 |

| stringCh1ese | wrong channel | 23:43 |
| adrian_2002ca | stringCh1ese, have fun | 23:43 |
| marion | amenado, I do only have 3 computers on my network. | 23:43 |
| === FlareBot is now known as Flare183 | ||
| Pelo | DOOM_NX, that's the best I could find, I donT how the time right now but I would investigate the commands listed on page two check the manpage for each of them individualy, that might be something in ther eyou can use | 23:44 |
| Pelo | best of luck | 23:44 |
| Pelo | see you all later folks | 23:44 |
| RequinB8 | stringCh1ese - at least its the least expensive part of a computer to replace | 23:44 |
| VoiDeT | bai | 23:44 |
| joshudson | err | 23:44 |
| DOOM_NX | pel thanks a | 23:44 |
| DOOM_NX | he left | 23:44 |
| anteaya__ | ccharles: based upon this test i would say something is not working on my system http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59755/ | 23:44 |
| === rnue035 is now known as martinhrvn | ||
| DOOM_NX | anyway i'll try that | 23:44 |
| joshudson | well I got apt runing, but it doesn't seem to be pointing at ubuntu repositories | 23:44 |
| amenado | marion tree to ten is in-significant, have the ip address .100 to .110 point to same pc host | 23:44 |
| wubrgamer | hey guys, what certification programs are there out there for *buntu ??? I'm interested in learning more/finishing up some holes in my linux repertoire..... | 23:44 |
| amenado | marion modify your /etc/hosts | 23:44 |
| amenado | marion modify your /etc/hosts of your laptop.. | 23:44 |
| joshudson | or any repositories for that matter | 23:45 |
| marion | chickenFuego, I did the nmap and port 22 is open. | 23:45 |
| joshudson | how do I point it at ubuntu gutsy repositories | 23:45 |
| marion | amenado, so i can point a range of IP address to a single name? | 23:46 |
| amenado | joshudson-> are you a gui type of person or command line? | 23:46 |
| joshudson | command line | 23:46 |
| amenado | marion yes it is possible | 23:46 |
| anteaya__ | ccharles`: base upon the test i would say something is wrong with my system http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59755/ | 23:46 |
| ccharles` | VoiDeT: did you resize the filesystem (e.g. ext3) too, or just the partition? | 23:46 |
| amenado | joshudson-> then go see /etc/apt/sources.list | 23:46 |
| VoiDeT | ccharles`: i did resize the filesystem also | 23:46 |
| joshudson | No such file or directory | 23:46 |
| ccharles` | anteaya__: hang on a sec | 23:46 |
| flyback | WTF DO I NEED TO HAVE MYTHTV BACKEND-SETUP WHEN THIS machine is not going to be a myth backend | 23:46 |
| flyback | ugh | 23:46 |
| amenado | joshudson-> you have ubuntu? and you dont have that file? | 23:47 |
| anteaya__ | ccharles`: very good | 23:47 |
| joshudson | I don't have any working ubuntu anyware | 23:47 |
| joshudson | I have a working apt by manually pulling down packages one by one until it ran | 23:47 |
| amenado | joshudson-> ahh not installed yet? | 23:47 |
| ogre | i was wondering when gnome 2.22 would be released in updates. any word on this? | 23:47 |
| CMind | Is there a way to execute a command and send some stdin information (using C/C++)? | 23:47 |
| joshudson | blank drive/ nothing but apt and dpkg and dependencies installed | 23:47 |
| marion | amenado, I use DHCP because I want the laptop to be able to connect to different wifi networks. What might happen if I switch to a static IP network? | 23:48 |
| amenado | joshudson-> well if you are the person that like to do things so different from everyone, then you have to somehow put a resource management system like apt to manage it for you, if not, you have to manually retrieve those deb yourself | 23:48 |
| amenado | marion-> nothing will happen, you just have to be aware of your ip address and the host you are about to connect to | 23:49 |
| joshudson | get it through your head. As soon as apt runs, I'm going to issue apt-get install ubuntu-minimal | 23:49 |
| VoiDeT | ccharles`: umount /var | 23:49 |
| VoiDeT | resize2fs /dev/volgrpname/var 5G | 23:49 |

| ogre | i was wondering when gnome 2.22 would be released in updates. any word on this? | 23:50 |
| amenado | marion anytime, come again and share your know how once you get good at it | 23:50 |
| marion | amenado, I hope to be able to do that some day. | 23:50 |
| amenado | ogre umm we are only in 2.6.x ? | 23:50 |
| VoiDeT | ccharles`: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59756/ *not to flood* | 23:50 |
| amenado | ogre nvm, i read you wrong | 23:51 |
| ccharles` | anteaya__: you have to pass an argument to zip to make it work. http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59757/ | 23:51 |
| amenado | marion ahh you will, if you are persistent | 23:51 |
| chickenFuego | marion: last thing: on your router, you can assign fixed IP to a given computer, based on tha MAC adress. | 23:51 |
| chickenFuego | marion: this might do what you want. | 23:51 |
| ccharles` | VoiDeT: I'm not an expert in this... probably can't help you much beyond what I already asked. | 23:51 |
| ccharles` | VoiDeT: I hope somebody else can help | 23:51 |
| VoiDeT | cheers | 23:51 |

| pdb_ | can someone help me getting my virtual desktops working in gnome? | 23:53 |
| ogre | amenado: so no clue? check it out it looks preeettttyy cool http://library.gnome.org/misc/release-notes/2.22/ | 23:53 |

| bilbo | i'm trying to install nvidia drivers on my hp dv2000, when i run the package installer from NVIDIA, i do that, reboot, and then i am greeted by a screen that says "Running in low-graphics mode" how do install nvidia drivers? | 23:54 |
| bilbo | how do i install nvidia drivers on 7.10? | 23:55 |
| pdb_ | bilbo, I just download the nvidia drivers from nvidias page and follow their instructions | 23:55 |
| Ashfire908 | I just enabled PPP compression (Deflate scheme), how can i tell if the connection is actually compressed? | 23:55 |
| anteaya__ | ccharles`: pastebin wouldn't take the output http://pastie.caboo.se/16693 and i don't know how to interpret this but it looks ugly and went on for about a minute and i finally interupted it | 23:55 |
| joshness | anyone? | 23:55 |
| bilbo | i follow their instructions too | 23:55 |
| anteaya__ | ccharles`: sorry wrong url http://pastie.caboo.se/166193 | 23:56 |
| con-man | if a process is defunct how do you kill it? | 23:56 |
| anteaya__ | ccharles`: i have never zipped a file before but somehow this output is suspect | 23:56 |
| Mew | con-man: try 'kill -9' | 23:56 |
| ccharles` | anteaya__: the link you gave me shows a bunch of ruby code... | 23:57 |
| con-man | Mew: its ok got it, killed the parent process | 23:57 |
| anteaya__ | ccharles`: yes that is what was output rails/rails/rails/rails/... | 23:57 |
| ccharles` | anteaya__: that was the output from you trying to create a zip file? | 23:57 |
| anteaya__ | ccharles`: it was a rails directory i was trying to zip | 23:57 |
| anteaya__ | ccharles`: yes ugly isn't it | 23:58 |
| anteaya__ | ccharles`: i did the command like you said in pastebin and my terminal did that | 23:58 |
| matt444 | how do you hide files inside of other files (like a picture). i've heard you do cat imagefile filetohide > out.jpg. but then how do you "extract" the hidden file? thanks | 23:58 |
| anteaya__ | ccharles`: for about a minute before i terminated it | 23:59 |
| ccharles` | anteaya__: that's pretty weird. (a) it shouldn't show file contents, and (b) it should be fairly fast if it's just a bunch of source files | 23:59 |
| anteaya__ | ccharles`: i am glad we agree that this is not normal output | 23:59 |
| anteaya__ | ccharles`: yes | 23:59 |
