asker | I have a file called ratings, but it shows copy of rating to me in the taskbar of the pdf viewer. | 00:00 |

sageb1 | asker, like changing "thistitle.pdf" to "a fine title.pdf"? | 00:00 |
kauer | in bash, is there a standard way to get the PID of the last-run command? I want to save the PID so that I can terminate it later. There may be multiple instances of this program running, and I not all should be terminated, just the one that this script started. | 00:01 |
asker | sageb1: no... i am thinking of document title in the meta data. | 00:01 |
silent_ | asker: you'd need an application | 00:01 |
sageb1 | asker, it's more than a pdf? | 00:01 |
tmcfulton | Let me try again | 00:01 |
tmcfulton | I may have done it wrong the first time | 00:01 |
sageb1 | tmcfulton, please do | 00:01 |

silent_ | asker: I'm not familiar with the program | 00:02 |
billyguitarhero | oh one more important thing.. im running 64 bit | 00:02 |
kauer | it looks like $! would work... | 00:02 |

asathoor | I cannot register my pgp key in launchpad | 00:03 |
asker | sageb1: what do you mean by that? | 00:03 |
zathras_laptop | anyway i can get round apt-get complaining about a package without a source .deb? | 00:03 |
ygorabreu_br_spa | billyguitarhero:ok..because the restricted driver for broadcom usually dont work for all..4sure | 00:03 |
asathoor | how can I check the keyserver of ubuntu? | 00:03 |
dataangel | grrr ... I can not execute Handbreak after extracting the executbale | 00:03 |
soundray | kauer: I think $$ is the standard way to get the PID | 00:04 |
sageb1 | asker, ok, i don't understand | 00:04 |
jerbear | can i take a quick survey? what desktop environment do you guys prefer? (gnome, kde, etc.) | 00:04 |
billyguitarhero | i don't have an iftab file... | 00:04 |
dataangel | i have done chmod 777 Handbreakcli or whatever | 00:04 |
sageb1 | dataangel, ok we need to use the ffmpeg method then | 00:04 |
billyguitarhero | ygorabreu_br_spa: i don't have the iftab file.. what do i do? | 00:04 |
asathoor | !openpgp ket | 00:04 |
ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about openpgp ket - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 00:04 |
dataangel | it wont even do the command line completion in the terminal | 00:04 |
soundray | jerbear: no surveys here please -- go to #ubuntu-offtopic | 00:04 |

jerbear | soundray: how is that off topic? | 00:05 |
asker | sageb1: when you see a pdf file. it has a certain name. i can change that easily. but if you open that file and click on properties, you see TITLE. I want to change that. | 00:05 |
asathoor | !gpg | 00:05 |
ubotu | gpg is the GNU Privacy Guard. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GnuPrivacyGuardHowto and class #8 on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ClassroomTranscripts | 00:05 |

ygorabreu_br_spa | [billyguitarhero]: yeah well..with me, actually i dont have it either..but its going to work anyway | 00:05 |
billyguitarhero | oh | 00:05 |
billyguitarhero | okay | 00:05 |
billyguitarhero | thanks | 00:05 |
tmcfulton | sageb1: it didn't work | 00:06 |
sageb1 | dataangel: http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_DVD_to_MP4 | 00:06 |
kauer | soundray: Thanks, but $$ is the PID of the currently executing shell. The more I read about $! the more I'm convinced I'm doing something wrong :-) it looks like exactly what I want. | 00:06 |
asker | does no one know how to change metadata of pdfs (properties)? | 00:06 |
ygorabreu_br_spa | [billyguitarhero]: cat /etc/iftab | grep wlan0 .. thats what u need to do right? well..if this tutorial work for u..ull get connected...but like me, ur wifi connection will be eth1 .. | 00:07 |
psycoshot | hey, im repartioning , I want one windows one linux and another linux, what types do I use. i.e: ext3 ext2 fat16 fat 32 | 00:07 |
shawn__ | whats up guys | 00:07 |
Fryguy-- | psycoshot: ntfs for windows, and ext3 or reiserfs for linux (and swap for swap partition, which can be shared across linux installs | 00:07 |
soundray | asker: try pdftk -- it can do all sorts of things to pdfs | 00:07 |
asker | does no one know how to change metadata of pdfs (properties) or just the TITLE of a file? | 00:07 |
ygorabreu_br_spa | billyguitarhero:but dont worry..cuz im using for 5months gutsy without problems with my wifi. | 00:08 |
shawn__ | how do i install my ati card without conflicting with my onboard graphics | 00:08 |
asker | soundray: have it got a GUI? | 00:08 |

soundray | asker: no | 00:08 |
shawn__ | does anyone know | 00:08 |
cameodemon | wheres the bash file under ubuntu for autostarting apps, im not talking about that gnome app under sys > prefs, id like to know if theres a file | 00:08 |
shawn__ | i havent installed the package for the onboard drivers yet though | 00:09 |
psycoshot | Fryguy: I dont have ntfs option :S is that because linux doesnt partion that? | 00:09 |
Fryguy-- | shawn__: if you want to switch video cards on an already installed system, you'll probably have to edit xorg.conf yourself to get a somewhat sane environment | 00:09 |
Fryguy-- | psycoshot: it does | 00:09 |
shawn__ | can ati amd graphics cards be ran on ubuntu | 00:09 |
shawn__ | ? | 00:09 |
Fryguy-- | psycoshot: windows should already be installed | 00:09 |
Fryguy-- | shawn__: of course | 00:09 |
shawn__ | ok | 00:10 |
shawn__ | is there a way to disable my onboard graphics | 00:10 |
shawn__ | in ubuntu | 00:10 |
mDemocritus | shawn__: do it in bios if you can | 00:10 |
Fryguy-- | there's no need to, just configure it to use your ati card | 00:10 |
psycoshot | Fryguy: Currently I have one 80gb linux partion, im reformatting the whole HD | 00:10 |
shawn__ | i did do it in bois | 00:10 |
shawn__ | and it messed up | 00:10 |
Fryguy-- | psycoshot: so then go and install windows, then install linux(es) | 00:11 |
shawn__ | i installed the ati drivers | 00:11 |
shawn__ | then restarted | 00:11 |
mDemocritus | shawn__ how did it messup? | 00:11 |
shawn__ | changed my bios to pci | 00:11 |
shawn__ | then booted | 00:11 |
psycoshot | Oh ok thank Fryguy | 00:11 |
shawn__ | and i got the bolank screen | 00:11 |
shawn__ | blank | 00:11 |
shawn__ | does anyone know what i did wrong? | 00:11 |
xb3rt | are their any ip tools for Pidgen messenger | 00:11 |
Fryguy-- | shawn__: yes, you changed video cards on an already configured system and didn't make the necessary configuration changes | 00:11 |
Fryguy-- | xb3rt: ? | 00:12 |
shawn__ | ok where do i make those changes? | 00:12 |
Fryguy-- | xb3rt: wrong channel, join #pidgin | 00:12 |
Fryguy-- | shawn__: /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 00:12 |
xb3rt | Fryguy--: sorry | 00:12 |
xb3rt | Fryguy--: no such channel | 00:12 |
shawn__ | okay ill check that out | 00:12 |
soundray | shawn__: boot in recovery mode and run 'dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg'. Select the appropriate driver and pick defaults for the rest. | 00:12 |
Fryguy-- | xb3rt: i just joined it and there are hundreds of people in there | 00:13 |
MartianLobster | how do I tell ubuntu, to rescan for wireless networks? | 00:13 |
shawn__ | so what do i do | 00:13 |
shawn__ | dleate the configurated one and restart? | 00:13 |
soundray | shawn__: boot in recovery mode and run 'dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg'. Select the appropriate driver and pick defaults for the rest. | 00:13 |
shawn__ | how do i boot in recovery | 00:14 |
ygorabreu_br_spa | billyguitarhero:how's going mate? | 00:14 |
visof | hello | 00:14 |
visof | how can i know my monitor size? | 00:14 |
soundray | shawn__: it's an option in the grub menu, the first thing you get during boot after the BIOS messages | 00:14 |
Fryguy-- | shawn__: reboot and select recovery on the boot menu, or just use your existing boot and switch to a virtual terminal, use a serial console, or ssh | 00:14 |
visof | 1024*? | 00:14 |
shawn__ | it says press esc | 00:14 |
Fryguy-- | visof: on the manual for the monitor when you bought it | 00:14 |
cameodemon | monitor size? | 00:14 |
cameodemon | or resolution? | 00:14 |
shawn__ | thats the only option | 00:15 |
cameodemon | monitor size can be measured with a tape measure or ruler | 00:15 |
soundray | shawn__: hmm, let's think -- maybe you should press Esc then? | 00:15 |
shawn__ | lol | 00:15 |
shawn__ | okay | 00:15 |
Fryguy-- | shawn__: common sense is helpful | 00:15 |
shawn__ | then there are more optionS? | 00:15 |
xb3rt | Fryguy--: howd you spell it | 00:15 |
visof | sorry it's resolution | 00:15 |
Fryguy-- | xb3rt: pidgin | 00:15 |
soundray | shawn__: go and check it out | 00:15 |
Fryguy-- | xb3rt: just like the name of the application | 00:15 |
Fryguy-- | why are some people so stupid, seriously :( | 00:15 |
shawn__ | lol | 00:16 |
xb3rt | Fryguy--: I'll be damned, i spelled it wrong | 00:16 |
shawn__ | breb | 00:16 |
soundray | Fryguy--: please be tolerant | 00:16 |
shawn__ | brb | 00:16 |
visof | how can i know the screen resolution? | 00:16 |
Fryguy-- | soundray: why? I spend a few hours a week in here helping people with the most ridiculous of problems, including lack of spelling and common sense? I'm not allowed to rant every now and then that I don't get more opportunities to help people with true technical problems? | 00:17 |
VoiDeT | hey everyone. Posted a question on the forums, no answer. Wondering if i should of posted it in Beginner talk or where it is in general help? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=725615 | 00:17 |
Fryguy-- | visof: on the manual when you bought the monitor, or on the spec sheet of the manufacturer's website, available for download | 00:17 |
visof | can i know this with command? | 00:17 |
Fryguy-- | visof: the monitor might have EDID information stored that you can probe, but probably not | 00:18 |
soundray | Fryguy--: I made a suggestion and I said please. Take it or leave it, and do what you want. | 00:18 |
jerbear | gdm does not load my ~/.zprofile file, but it does load ~/.profile.. what gives? | 00:18 |

mohamed_ | hello all , have sound card not working,lspci give this result" 00:05.0 Audio device: nVidia Corporation MCP61 High Definition Audio (rev a2) " any help ? | 00:18 |
Fryguy-- | jerbear: why would you expect it to load that profile? | 00:18 |
jerbear | Fryguy--: b/c it's supposed to... kdm does | 00:19 |
Fryguy-- | jerbear: what does another application's choosing to load a file have to do with the current application? | 00:19 |
jerbear | Fryguy--: this is what is supposed to happen with a display manager... it loads the profile file for your preferred shell | 00:20 |
Fryguy-- | jerbear: if the problem is really that much of a big deal to you, just symlink one to the other | 00:20 |
jerbear | Fryguy--: it doesn't work that way... one is zsh, the other is bash, trying to source one with the other doesn't work | 00:21 |
sageb1 | ok i am outies | 00:21 |
sageb1 | quit | 00:21 |
jerbear | Fryguy--: i've seen forum posts about this exact thing.. i was wondering if anyone else has come up with a solution to this | 00:21 |
Fryguy-- | jerbear: afaik bash profile is .bash_profile, and using .profile for anything related to bash is a non-standard convention, I could be wrong though | 00:21 |
instabin | I have samba setup on ubuntu and there is a pdf printer share. What driver do i use for this on my windows machines? | 00:22 |
EruditeHermit | hi, where can I find the config files for displayconfig-gtk so that I can purge them? | 00:22 |
Fryguy-- | I don't use zsh on my ubuntu system, only on other systems, so I can't be of more help to you. I'd expect few people/nobody in here are using anything but the standard shell | 00:22 |
jerbear | Fryguy--: actually, you're right... ~/.profile is sourced by sh, where bash_profile is sourced by bash | 00:23 |
jerbear | Fryguy--: it's only standard b/c it's the default... it doesn't make sense that gdm would not work with other shells | 00:23 |

tictacaddict | ronandi is the one asking about rhythmbox | 00:28 |
resel | hello all | 00:28 |
isaacj87 | noob here...but i was interested in a PPA? | 00:28 |
kauer | further to $! I think there are two problems. When I start (say) tail -f in the background, $! correctly contains the PID of the tail process. When I start the program I want to track, $! contains nothing. Problem 1 is that the program has to be started in the background. Unfortunately the program is a daemon and detaches itself, so bash doesn't know about it. Problem 2 is that it seems to start a subprocess, lettting the original process die. So even if | 00:28 |
isaacj87 | how does one start one up? | 00:28 |
resel | i want to play counter strike | 00:28 |
damaltor | hello everybody. i did set up an apache web server in my home network, with a static adress via dyndns wich converts my non-static ip. this worked great for some days now. after messing around with CUPS (wanted to get that fancy webinterface via network) its down: i still can reach it via its local ip, and i also can reach the router configuration menu (wich i set to port 100 for no problems with http port 80) via dyndns. so dyndns works, | 00:29 |
damaltor | and direct connection to the webserver works - i thought of the router, maybe he has problems with port forwarding (Zyxel machines are known for like, forgetting the set up things) but the configuration is ok. even when i disable the firewall in the router, no connection from outside is possible (worked before!). so my questions are: can the "server" i set up here notice a difference between connecting to it via dyndns and connecting via L | 00:29 |
damaltor | AN? is there anything i could have messed up? | 00:29 |
icesword | resel, steam>or wine | 00:29 |

PedroBRHA | teste | 00:37 |
sarthor | soundray, i use to earn but the ground reality is going against me. | 00:37 |
PedroBRHA | hi | 00:37 |
parkinm | soundray: how do i make it always run metacity? | 00:37 |
sarthor | and its better advice for me to stop desiring of playing CS:) Stoppped | 00:37 |
soundray | sarthor: it will continue going against you if you waste your time | 00:37 |
SpookyET | I'm having some mouse problems. Is anyone willing to help? | 00:38 |
icesword | sarthor, do you get paid for playing cs | 00:38 |
soundray | parkinm: if you played with desktop effects, disable them -- that should restore it to always run metacity | 00:38 |
parkinm | soundray, hmm i dont think i have played with anything at all, :C | 00:39 |
sarthor | icesword, No. soundray . i stopped wishing to play CS.... so i am not wasting time. | 00:39 |

SpookyET | While it worked before, for the last 2 days, Arch is not detecting my touchpad on boot. I have to manually modprobe psmouse for the mouse to work. Synaptics in xorg still does not detect it. So, I have limited functionality. I'm not sure what went wrong. | 00:41 |
tux97 | black_magic is that a wireless card? | 00:41 |
soundray | SpookyET: this is not Arch support | 00:41 |
Black_Magic | tux97: Yea | 00:42 |
no | question! | 00:42 |
no | my router is detecting a lot of ping of death attacks | 00:42 |
stevendemorez | anyone using ubuntu on an eeepc please pm me i need some help | 00:42 |
no | and every 4 or 5 days my server will freeze | 00:42 |
yndis | what could be wrong when i cant start "alsamixer" but get the error: "alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device" | 00:42 |
SpookyET | soundray: I meant ubuntu. I got 2 boxes. one arch one ubuntu | 00:42 |
no | what can I do? | 00:42 |
tux97 | ok for mine i did for my broadcom wifi card was go to google.com and searched for ubuntu then my wifi card it told me to get ndiswrapper and use the windows driver | 00:43 |
bshosey | Has anyone try ubuntu 8.04 on a Dell Inspiron 1021? | 00:43 |

bshosey | I ment 1721 | 00:43 |
tux97 | not me bshoey i'm running a 1521 with gutsy | 00:43 |
no | soundray: the pings of death come from a variety of ip addresses which are forged probably | 00:44 |
BinaryFu | Mooo... | 00:44 |
Dmole | how do i add to /etc/resolv.conf properly? | 00:44 |
bshosey | does the 1521 have the ATI 1250? | 00:44 |
tux97 | black_magic did i help you? | 00:44 |
tux97 | ati 1250 what? | 00:44 |
soundray | no: you've got a contract with an ISP to provide your connection. Now if someone interferes with that service provision, it's their responsibility to solve that problem. It's not a Ubuntu support issue. | 00:45 |
Fryguy-- | Dmole: just add ip addresses, one per line, or search domains if you have them | 00:45 |
bshosey | tux97: Radeon xpress | 00:45 |
tux97 | it has ati stuff in here | 00:46 |
BinaryFu | I have an odd situation going on with my Ubuntu gutsy. Nautilus is acting up. As in, my desktop icons cannot be clicked, I can dive down into some directories in nautilus, but certain ones I hit will show nothing in the folder (even though there are items there and it reports the correct amount in the status bar) and then it pretty much locks up solid from that point on to where I have to killall nautilus.

Dmole | "DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE BY HAND -- YOUR CHANGES WILL BE OVERWRITTEN" | 00:46 |
Dmole | Fryguy--: the changes go away each boot | 00:46 |
no | I tried my ISP already - they said there is nothing they can do - their service is operational......I agree with them | 00:47 |
bshosey | tux97: I got pore performance with compize and opengl games with mine on Hardy. | 00:47 |
no | it isn't a transport problem | 00:47 |
no | it's a hacker problem | 00:47 |
Fryguy-- | Dmole: only if you are using dhcp or some other mechanism that is going to overwrite your dns settings | 00:47 |
no | I believe this is a firewall/hacking issue | 00:47 |
tux97 | oh ok compize isn't installed on this one | 00:47 |
no | can someone else advise me? | 00:47 |
PedroBRHA | Hi | 00:47 |
BinaryFu | no: What's the malfunction? | 00:47 |
PedroBRHA | I'am br user hahaha | 00:48 |
PedroBRHA | no speak english | 00:48 |
tux97 | bshosey do you know why i can't access my ubuntu desktop from my laptop? | 00:48 |
PedroBRHA | wait | 00:48 |
no | binary: the server will freeze completely - even if I press the power button nothing will happen - my router logs show repeated pings of death attempts | 00:48 |
randy__ | Hi--new to Ubuntu. Sound card appears to be installed, but not playing audio. Mute is off, volume is up. Creative Sound Blaster Audigy Platinum. Help? | 00:48 |
soundray | no: even if you can't get your ISP to help, that doesn't make it a ubuntu support issue | 00:48 |
Black_Magic | tux97: Huh? its a wireless card is basically all you said... | 00:48 |
no | soundray it is an ubuntu issue | 00:48 |
tux97 | well i tried cat5 as well and nothing | 00:49 |
no | ubuntu software is accepting these malformed pings | 00:49 |
soundray | no: DDOS attacks aren't | 00:49 |
PedroBRHA | my sound card function good | 00:49 |
no | yes, if the software accepts malformed pings | 00:49 |
Dmole | Fryguy--: well i'm not sure how to deal with that but i might just change em back with /etc/rc3.d/S99local | 00:49 |
bshosey | tux97: are you just browsing samba? | 00:49 |
PedroBRHA | ubuntu autodetection sound card | 00:49 |
BinaryFu | no: Sounds like perhaps you need to get more strict with your denials in iftables. I'd suggest trying Firestarter, and making sure to deny ICMP etc. and then remove the denials one at a time until you run into the problem, then you know which to protect from. | 00:49 |
tux97 | yea for my shares | 00:49 |
preor | hi | 00:49 |
PedroBRHA | hi | 00:49 |
tux97 | and when i click on my network it times out | 00:49 |
Bunny_of_Death | any one lookin for a good bunny.... | 00:49 |
bshosey | Tux97 both machines are running ubuntu? | 00:50 |
tux97 | yep | 00:50 |
MirrorImage | I just installed the new firefox beta and I can't get flash to work, any suggestions? | 00:50 |
tux97 | my laptop and desktop where my samba shares are | 00:50 |
Fryguy-- | MirrorImage: go back to a stable version of firefox | 00:50 |
preor | I just installed linux and my sound card does not seem to work, any hints? | 00:50 |
MirrorImage | Besides that : p | 00:50 |
tux97 | windows pcs work fine to browse samba but not my ubuntu laptop | 00:50 |
randy__ | same here, no sound | 00:50 |
BinaryFu | Bunny_of_Death: Only if the bunny could help me figure out what the hell Nautilus' problem is on my boxen. :) | 00:50 |
Fryguy-- | MirrorImage: you are asking for help with beta software in a channel that has nothing directly to do with the software. What kind of answer are you looking for ? | 00:51 |
bshosey | tux97: that is what I was thinking. OK. I have not done much with samba but on my server I had to put on all clients same username and passords on the system to work. | 00:51 |
no | binary: today I started to try that: however I allow icmp pings for source quenching and no response - is that wise? | 00:51 |
Dr_willis | preor, theres a lot of new sound cards that dont have full linux support yet. some are supported. but ubuntu hasdnt the proper updated drivers yet. The next release may support them | 00:51 |
e345 | i need some help with video settings | 00:51 |
tux97 | my server works fine for users and so forth | 00:51 |
MirrorImage | I was just wondering if you could help, I don't think I'm doing anything crazy by asking, Fryguy-- | 00:51 |
BinaryFu | no: Personally, I've found very little use for ICMP to be allowed...ever. So, it's denied by default on my box. | 00:51 |
preor | Dr_willis: a very old sound card actually Audigy Platinum | 00:51 |
tux97 | but i just can't access it by wifi or cat5 | 00:51 |
Fryguy-- | MirrorImage: this is completely the wrong forum to be asking that sort of question | 00:52 |
BinaryFu | no: but then, I also have it silently drop pings, which might be useful for you if you're remote administering the box. | 00:52 |
cyberpunk__ | hi | 00:52 |
no | Binary: I am a newbie - I operate a tor/freenet/and soon a mixmaster remailer server - do you agree that I don't need ICMP for any of these? what is ICMP used for anyway? | 00:52 |
cyberpunk__ | does anyone know an easy traffic shaping method? i need to prioritize p2p traffic | 00:52 |
randy__ | preor, I have same problem with my SB audigy platinum | 00:52 |
tux97 | randy do u have sound or is there a mark to ur sound saying no sound device installed? | 00:52 |
Dr_willis | preor, my audigy cards are working fine. ive had several of them. If using the digital output on them. Some times that needs to get selected, it may just be your mixer settings have the volumes down. Try playing a sound file, and see if they 'play' or error out. | 00:52 |
bshosey | tux97: can you ping and ssh to the server from the laptop? | 00:52 |
Dr_willis | Ive used Audigy, and now have an Audigy2zs in my main machine. | 00:52 |
tux97 | mmmm is pinging the same in ubuntu as windows? | 00:53 |
randy__ | tux97: just no sound. No errors. | 00:53 |
tux97 | oh ok | 00:53 |
Dr_willis | tux97, ping whatever.machine.ip.or.name | 00:53 |
Dr_willis | :) | 00:53 |
Starnestommy | no: ICMP is mainly used to see if a host is up, how long it takes to respond to pings, and what route messages take from your computer to another | 00:53 |
MirrorImage | Fryguy--, is this an applicable question, I'm pretty sure I didn't replace firefox and still have the stable version around somewhere on here, do you know where I can go about finding it? | 00:53 |
tux97 | i had errors and i did some stuff and it worked fine now | 00:53 |
BinaryFu | no: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_Control_Message_Protocol that will give you a quick education on ICMP and it's uses...most of which, I consider pointless. :) | 00:53 |
tux97 | ok ty dr_willis | 00:53 |
* icmp sighs | 00:53 | |
bshosey | tux97: use the network tools under system>administration | 00:53 |
no | I see,thank you both! | 00:54 |
Dr_willis | windows has a ping command also i belive. | 00:54 |
icmp | pointless am I! | 00:54 |
boselecta | i'm having a terrible time getting a WPA2 Personal wireless cxn set up on my friend's laptop. is there a trick to this? | 00:54 |
preor | Dr_willis: did play an mp3 no errors and I downloaded a codec, did adjust the picture of speakers beside the clock to the highest volume also youtube videos with no sound | 00:54 |
tux97 | ok i pinged it | 00:54 |
BinaryFu | no: very welcome. Hope it helped. | 00:54 |
no | lol, do you just make that name? icmp? | 00:54 |
preor | Dr_willis: is there a specific installation for audigy perha[s | 00:54 |
tux97 | but when i go to places and network then my network it times out | 00:54 |
BinaryFu | icmp: Don't feel that way...I'm sure the script kiddies still luv you! | 00:55 |
Fryguy-- | MirrorImage: i have no idea. I build a sandbox virtual machine whenever I start screwing around with beta software that i have stable versions of laying around | 00:55 |
icmp | I've had this name since the internet was young. | 00:55 |
icmp | If you ever want to find me, just put your ear to the ground | 00:55 |
MirrorImage | Alright then | 00:55 |
=== BinaryFu is now known as DDOS | ||
Dr_willis | preor, ive never had to do anything for my audigy cards other then perhaps check the mixer controlls. try the alsamixer tools, you may need to install them, instead of the gnome mixer. | 00:55 |
bshosey | try to add the server in you host in the network setting and see if you can access it. | 00:55 |
DDOS | Hey, we still love ya ICMP! | 00:55 |
=== DDOS is now known as BinaryFu | ||
icmp | all kidding aside, icmp does it exactly what it was designed to | 00:55 |
Fryguy-- | considering icmp is partly responsible for running the internet, i'd say it's pretty important | 00:55 |
icmp | indeed | 00:55 |
e345 | is there a good room to go to for assistance with display issues or someone i can query? | 00:56 |
ronandi | gonna go play CS lol. cya | 00:56 |
yndis | how do i uninstall the alsa drivers ? | 00:56 |
Dr_willis | preor, last i rember i could see the player play the sound, the little 'volume bars and stuff would jump around' showing it was playing, but i had no sound out. I had to use the alsamixer to enable the digital out. mess with some other sliders to get the volume actually up. | 00:56 |
Fryguy-- | e345: just ask your question in here, we'll either answer it, ignore you if we dont' know, or point you in the right direction | 00:56 |
Dr_willis | !find alsa | 00:56 |
bshosey | tux97: are you systems DHCP or Static ip's | 00:56 |
ubotu | Found: alsa-base, alsa-utils, gstreamer0.10-alsa, libesd-alsa0, libsdl1.2debian-alsa (and 37 others) | 00:56 |
Dr_willis | !find mixer | 00:56 |
ubotu | Found: alsa-utils, kmix, libsdl-mixer1.2, libsdl-mixer1.2-dev, xfce4-mixer (and 11 others) | 00:56 |
BinaryFu | But it has it's uses...and a lot of times, it's not as necessary to have reception of it. | 00:56 |
no | icmp is simply for computers to check if others are on the net? | 00:56 |
tux97 | dhcp | 00:56 |
yndis | i had working sound, but then i messed it up and i want to uninstall and reinstall whatever was working in the first place :P | 00:57 |
Fryguy-- | no: it does quite a bit more than that | 00:57 |
e345 | ok, i was trying to get my projector to display sidelong with my laptop, now i have restarted my laptop and am stuck in 640x480 and the S&G preferences wont let me change it | 00:57 |
bshosey | tux97: OK. do you have DNS running on the server? | 00:57 |
boselecta | does WPA2 Personal wireless work under 7.07? The ESSID is not broadcast on this network. | 00:57 |
tux97 | i dont know | 00:57 |
Fryguy-- | boselecta: yes it works fine | 00:57 |
boselecta | Fryguy--: is there a trick to it, because I can't get it to connect. | 00:58 |
=== Varka_ is now known as Varka | ||
Fryguy-- | boselecta: nope, it just works. make sure you are using the correct settings | 00:58 |
no | fryguy : wikipedia says it's for error messages for routers and hosts | 00:58 |
bshosey | OK. I am going to assume you do not. I belive that you do not. I would just add the server name and IP in you hosts file. | 00:58 |
no | how is it useful otherwise? | 00:58 |
Dmole | Fryguy--: it(init.d) worked but i'm sure there is a proper way | 00:58 |
Fryguy-- | no: and other things | 00:58 |
no | wikipedia doesn't elaborate: could you summarize :P | 00:59 |
boselecta | Fryguy--: the ESSID is set correctly, I have set it to DHCP, and I have typed in the password several times. It never connects. All I get is the "Changing interface configuration" dialog. | 00:59 |
no | basically I want to operate a free speech/anonymizing service server | 01:00 |
tux97 | bshosey i can ssh to it using putty | 01:00 |
soundray | boselecta: is it a Ralink chipset? | 01:00 |
boselecta | no, i think it's Intel Pro Wireless (on a laptop) | 01:01 |
randy__ | Yes! I just used Alsa Mixer, to change my audio settings, and it worked--make sure "Front" channel is turned up | 01:01 |
soundray | boselecta: is it actually 7.04 or 7.10? | 01:02 |
randy__ | preor: do what I did, install Alsa Mixer and play with the sliders. See if it gets your sound to play. | 01:03 |
randy__ | thanks for help, all--goodbye | 01:03 |
boselecta | soundray: 7.10 | 01:03 |
ronandi | lol... im back.... cs crashed after I played for like 2 min | 01:03 |
preor | Dr_willis: where can I get alsa mixer from | 01:03 |
tux97 | bshosey wheres my host file on witch pc? | 01:04 |
no | thanks all bye | 01:04 |
soundray | boselecta: do you get the problem on the live CD? | 01:04 |
xenthro | my engineer friend is complaining about the lack of features in the "solver" in openoffice spreadsheet VS Excel. is there a plugin or something that will make it better? | 01:04 |
jordan | how do I configure a USB device? | 01:04 |
boselecta | soundray: i couldn't tell you, but it is a relatively fresh install from scratch (new HD). | 01:04 |
Dr_willis | preor, look in the packjage manager, thers several variants of it. | 01:05 |
soundray | xenthro: if a decision of Windows vs. Ubuntu is hinging on Calc vs. Excel, I'm pessimistic... | 01:05 |
xenthro | soundray, he was actually very impressed with OOO, he just needs a better solver | 01:06 |
dodimar20 | need help.. have a fresh install of xubuntu. but everytime i restart or shutdown, it hangs, makes a never ending "tooot" sound. never experienced this from gnome etc.. | 01:06 |
tgm4883 | in gnome in 8.04, where do you set the default player to open when an ipod is connected? It seems to have changed places since 7.10 | 01:06 |
soundray | boselecta: if you could test your wireless from a live CD environment, you could narrow the issue down to one with your hard disk installation if it works | 01:06 |
Pici | !hardy | tgm4883 | 01:06 |
Fryguy-- | tgm4883: wrong channel | 01:06 |
ubotu | tgm4883: Hardy Heron is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (8.04-LTS), due April 2008 - For more info, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardyHeron - CONSIDER IT TO BE PRE BETA (ALPHA) SOFTWARE - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1, NOT #ubuntu | 01:06 |
SpookyET | I don't get why kde4 are reinventing compiz-fusion. Not only that I get less than half the frame rate and artifacts all over the place, the effects are crappy. | 01:06 |
preor | Dr_willis: installed it, yet no sounds :S | 01:07 |
tgm4883 | my bad, thanks | 01:07 |
boselecta | does IPW2100 support WPA2? | 01:07 |
rawrbert | can i ask about problems in here? | 01:07 |
Fryguy-- | SpookyET: the kde developers posted a huge article about why they did what they did a while back, can probably find it on google | 01:07 |
clearzen | dodimar20: have you tried shuting it down from a terminal to see what error it gives you? | 01:07 |
dodimar20 | hmn.. not yet... | 01:07 |
dodimar20 | i'll try it.. will post the result here.. | 01:08 |
tux97 | bshosey wheres my host file on witch puter to add the info? | 01:08 |
Fryguy-- | tux97: /etc/hosts | 01:08 |
soundray | xenthro: have you seen the development project that deals with this issue? http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Optimization_Solver | 01:08 |
Dr_willis | preor, you did RUN the mixer protgram and mess with the sliders? | 01:08 |
jordan | how do I configure USB devices on Linux? | 01:09 |
tux97 | fryguy witch puter ? | 01:09 |
Fryguy-- | jordan: too vague | 01:09 |
Fryguy-- | tux97: ? | 01:09 |
xenthro | soundray, thanks for the link, checking it now | 01:09 |
Fryguy-- | the one you want to connect from... | 01:09 |
soundray | jordan: what do you mean by 'configure', and what kind of device is it? | 01:09 |
sutabi | im having trouble with flash, I install gnash after I installed the non-free flash and my flash sound stopped working so I uninstalled both and installed flash just itself and still getting no sound. The rest of the system has sound ;( | 01:09 |
jordan | fryguy--: a logitech microphone then? | 01:09 |
tux97 | witch pc to add to the hostfile for my server and ip addy stuff that bshosey was telling me to do | 01:09 |
clearzen | jordan: what do you mean configure? | 01:09 |
Fryguy-- | tux97: the one you want to connect to | 01:09 |
tux97 | ok | 01:10 |
jordan | fryguy--: maybe it's the wrong word. I'm trying to figure out how to get my laptop to detect that it's there | 01:10 |
preor | Dr_willis: yeah, which Sound Capture shall I choose btw? | 01:10 |
Fryguy-- | sutabi: look into using the alsa-oss wrapper in your browser http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&safe=off&client=firefox-a&rls=com.ubuntu:en-US:official&hs=lYO&sa=X&oi=spell&resnum=0&ct=result&cd=1&q=firefox+flash+alsa+oss&spell=1 | 01:10 |
CoolBreeze | hey guys, how do i authenticate in gamesurge with pidgin? /authserv AUTH XXXX XXXX does not work. Let me know. Thanks | 01:10 |
tux97 | so in /etc/hosts how do i put the server name and the ip addy in that file? | 01:10 |
soundray | jordan: what kind of device? | 01:10 |
Sonja | i can't see the videos embedded in this page http://hem.spray.se/sammorling/bodyworm.html What do I do to viev them in Firefox?? I should have all the quicktime codecs already! :( | 01:10 |
jordan | fryguy--: USB | 01:10 |
preor | Dr_willis: Asla Advanced Linux Sound Architect? | 01:10 |
Dr_willis | preor, i only had to slide the sliders around. Ubuntu uses alsa as its sound drivers. | 01:11 |
Fryguy-- | tux97: you edit the file and put the information in, just like the examples and other entries that are in there | 01:11 |
boselecta | soundray: when i do a sudo ifup -v eth1, it seems like the issue is "No DHCPOFFERS received." | 01:11 |
jordan | soundray: USB | 01:11 |
soundray | jordan: what kind of USB device? | 01:11 |
jordan | soundray: what do you mean? | 01:12 |
M1dn1ght | Hey guys. I'm having some serious trouble getting Ubuntu installed. Every type of install I try freezes shorty after I select the install type. Problem seems to be my SiS Mirage 3 Card according to other techies I've asked. So far I've tried about 7 distros: Ubuntu, Knoppix, Redhat, Fedora, openSuse and a couple more I can't remember. I've also tried installing in text mode, used the alternate cd. Even tried installing from mounted .iso in case it was my | 01:12 |
clearzen | boselecta: have you tried setting a static ip? | 01:12 |
M1dn1ght | Any ideas on a next step? | 01:12 |
Fryguy-- | boselecta: are you connecting to a network that doesn't use dhcp? | 01:12 |
soundray | jordan: a mouse? a keyboard? a memory stick? a scanner? a printer? a GPS? a vibrator? a mug warmer? | 01:12 |
tux97 | fryguy its confusing with all this stuff 127.0.0.1 localhost | 01:12 |
tux97 | 127.0.1.1 tux-laptop.hackers | 01:12 |
tux97 | # The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts | 01:12 |

BinaryFu | So, any ideas on why Nautilus might suddenly decide to have lockup issues in Gutsy? | 01:13 |
boselecta | clearzen, Fryguy--: no, it's a DHCP network. i don't control the network router. | 01:13 |
Fryguy-- | MidnighToker: sounds like you have to make a hardware change to have a usable system in linux then | 01:13 |
jordan | soundray: oh! sorry. I used the wrong word in my question. I meant how do I get my computer to detect that my USB microphone is connected? | 01:13 |
Fryguy-- | BinaryFu: too vague | 01:13 |
Jordan_U | jordan, Do you know that there exist linux drivers for your microphone? | 01:13 |
M1dn1ght | Not really an option for me as computer is a laptop and changing graphics chips is fiddly and expensive. | 01:13 |
soundray | jordan: do a 'lsmod | grep usbaudio'. If that generates output, it is detected and configured. | 01:14 |
clearzen | boselecta: you can set a static ip on your machine and connect to the network | 01:14 |
M1dn1ght | Looks like I might be doomed to a life with microshite | 01:14 |
Fryguy-- | M1dn1ght: then you are probably out of luck | 01:14 |
boselecta | clearzen: will that play nice with the router? | 01:14 |
clearzen | M1dn1ght: what kernel options have you tried? What errors does it give you in text mode | 01:14 |
jordan | jordan_U: eh? | 01:14 |
Fryguy-- | boselecta: if you configure it correctly, yes | 01:14 |
clearzen | boselecta:yes | 01:14 |
jordan | soundray: just paste it into the terminal? | 01:15 |
soundray | jordan: yes | 01:15 |
=== Thoth is now known as chowder | ||
jordan | soundray: nothing happened. And also, nothing gets detected when I plug it in. When I plug in my iphone to charge it doesn't charge or anything | 01:15 |
M1dn1ght | Often I do not get any errors unfortunately. With Ubuntu for example, it says it's loading kernal, reaches 100% and then goes to a blank screen with a blinking cursor. Can't Ctrl+C, Alt-F2, CTRL-ALT_DEL. | 01:16 |
chowder | anyone have any experience with OpenGEU (formerly known as Gebuntu)? | 01:16 |
Jordan_U | jordan, If there are no drivers available for your USB microphone then it might be 'detected' just fine, it just can't be made to work ( not saying that is the case, just wondering if you can rule out that possibility ) | 01:16 |
jordan | soundray: except for the computer charger | 01:16 |
M1dn1ght | As for the options I've used...I'll see if I can find them on a reference page. Don't remember them all off the top of my head | 01:16 |
rawrbert | when i start and install ubuntu 6.06(64AMD) after a while i get the xserver error so i try to reconfigure with [dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg]. After that, what should i do to start my install? | 01:16 |
jordan | Jordan_U: how do I find out? | 01:16 |
kitche | rawrbert: startx | 01:17 |
CoolBreeze | why hey guys, if "authserv AUTH USERNAME PASSWORD" does not work to authenticate (replies unknown command) with pidgin, what does? I know this is not the #pidgin support channel but let me know if you guys know how to auth with pidgin | 01:17 |
eromero | is there a way to have all usb keys mounted at the same mountpoint all the time? | 01:17 |
eromero | automonted i mean | 01:17 |
chowder | anyone have any experience with OpenGEU (formerly known as Gebuntu)? I just installed it and it's running a tad slow in terms of graphics | 01:17 |
omed | I have one ? about comileren under Ubuntu? | 01:17 |
rawrbert | thank you will give it a try now | 01:18 |
visof | how can i know my hardware information? | 01:18 |

DnOberon | Hey guys, pretty new to linux, just downloaded the Ubuntu alternate setup cd for the third time now. I seem to have trouble getting a working cd, when I check for defects something is always corrupt. I'm using cdburner xp pro, and the ubuntu version is the latest for AMD 64 cpus | 01:19 |
nikrud | visik7: sudo lshw | 01:19 |
Fryguy-- | DnOberon: buy higher quality cd media, get a better burner, or burn at a slower speed | 01:19 |
DnOberon | I've been burning at 24x, go lower than that? | 01:19 |
Fryguy-- | sure | 01:19 |
DnOberon | and can it be burnt to a dvd? | 01:19 |
Fryguy-- | yes | 01:20 |

jeremy_ | hello i need some advice as to why the ipod icon for my 3rd gen nano won't mount/show up on my desktop. i am using kubuntu 7.10 wtih libgpod 6.0 and amarok 1.4.8.. i know that there is no problem with amarok, so it has to be the ipod. if either the os/software/music player is the problem, which one is it and is there an alternative that works better with amarok/linux | 01:20 |
varsendaggr | how do i figure out my dns servers? | 01:20 |
choudesh | varsendaggr, cat /etc/resolv.conf | 01:20 |
Jordan_U | jordan, First try to figure out exactly what model USB microphone it is ( "lsusb" might help in that ), but looking at your other posts it seems like this is a general problem with your USB controller, can you mount USB pen drives or use USB keyboards? | 01:20 |
DnOberon | midnight, thats an option I enter in the advanced options on the first menu right? | 01:20 |
clearzen | M1dn1ght: try noapic as a kernel option | 01:20 |
Fryguy-- | varsendaggr: they are provided to your by your isp via dhcp. If this is not the case, then just pick some to use. I personally use verizon's root level dns servers because they are fater for me | 01:21 |
clearzen | M1dn1ght: also edit boot options and remove quiet from boot options | 01:21 |
eromero | nikrud: how about in xubuntu | 01:21 |
jordan | Jordan_U: So far no USB devices have worked. So I don't think so | 01:21 |
nikrud | eromero: you'd need to write some udev rules | 01:21 |
M1dn1ght | Dn0beron - I wasn't giving you advice there mate :) I probably know a lot less than you | 01:21 |

kenzo | what is the extension of a "bath" file on linux? | 01:27 |
kenzo | script? | 01:27 |
Fryguy-- | kenzo: ? | 01:28 |
jordan | Jordan_U: Nope. It says something about nVidia Co | 01:28 |
Jordan_U | kenade, Batch you mean? | 01:28 |
nikrud | kenzo: they are not identified by extension | 01:28 |
clearzen | linux doesn't actually pay attention to extensions | 01:28 |
clearzen | gnome does though | 01:28 |
nikrud | kenzo: a script in linux has a flag set, the exectuable one | 01:28 |
Fryguy-- | there are several languages available that are suitable for batch scripting in linux, namely python, ruby, perl, bash, and probably a few others are common as well | 01:28 |
kenzo | Yea, I need to make a script to set my wireless network up | 01:28 |

derelicked | macabro22: what do you mean, cdroms look the same as any regular folder anyways | 02:10 |
Jack_Sparrow | bruenig, sorry.. I lagged | 02:11 |
bruenig | macabro22: so a cd *does* look like a directory so long as the filesystem is being interpreted correctly | 02:11 |
CJS3141 | total newbie question... I downloaded Firefox 2.0.0.12... how do I install it and uninstall the older version? | 02:11 |
bruenig | Jack_Sparrow: I don't really care, just pointing it out | 02:11 |
mad_max02 | how can I check hdd speeds ? | 02:11 |
derelicked | CJS3141: that's the version you already have anyways, is it not? | 02:11 |
CJS3141 | derelicked: no I've got 2.0.0.6 | 02:11 |
derelicked | CJS3141, really, what version of Ubuntu? | 02:12 |
mad_max02 | CJS3141, then just update the one u have | 02:12 |
mad_max02 | 2.0.0.6 is the default in gutsy | 02:12 |
CJS3141 | 7.10? | 02:12 |
mad_max02 | just update it | 02:12 |
clearzen | bruenig: yes it is | 02:12 |
mad_max02 | run update and update it | 02:12 |
mad_max02 | CJS3141, sudo apt-get update ??? | 02:12 |
derelicked | CJS3141: click system>>administration>>update-manager | 02:13 |
mad_max02 | and then updates notification will pop up :D | 02:13 |
macabro22 | bruenig it's a .cue cd image file | 02:13 |
shirish | guys again, is there a way to install a .deb file with dpkg into a user specified location | 02:13 |
CJS3141 | oh... I can't use the add/remove GUI? I have to use the command line? | 02:13 |
bruenig | !iso | macabro22 convert it | 02:13 |
ubotu | macabro22 convert it: 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. | 02:13 |
derelicked | CJS3141: you don't have to use the command line, just click system>>administration>>update-manager | 02:13 |
shirish | sudo dpkg -i (some option) somedeb.deb | 02:13 |
mad_max02 | CJS3141, do what darelicked just typed | 02:14 |
CJS3141 | OK thanks hang on! | 02:14 |
derelicked | CJS3141: if you check for updates, it will automatically get the newer version of firefox and some other programs | 02:14 |
tbwnoob | okay | 02:14 |
bluecake | how to install 'terminal short cut' on right click? | 02:14 |
tbwnoob | i got the drives up | 02:14 |
macabro22 | bruenig: thax | 02:14 |
tbwnoob | now which one do i make bigger for more saving space | 02:14 |
AkieAkieyes`VS`A | mmh.. | 02:15 |
tbwnoob | ntfs? | 02:15 |
macabro22 | bruenig: thanks | 02:15 |
eromero | is there a way to tell the automounter to mount usb keys always at the same place | 02:15 |
CJS3141 | I checked for updates, and it claimed everything is up to date! | 02:15 |
Jack_Sparrow | tbwnoob, Before resizing ntfs partitions, defrag (Twice) seriously | 02:15 |
tbwnoob | iom trying to edit my parttins for more saving space and im in gparted with the drives up which do i edit | 02:15 |
tbwnoob | ok | 02:16 |
tbwnoob | how do i defrag | 02:16 |
Jack_Sparrow | do not edit mounted drives | 02:16 |
Jack_Sparrow | defrag in Windows | 02:16 |
tbwnoob | really | 02:16 |
tbwnoob | damn | 02:16 |
derelicked | CJS3141: OK, then first click system>>administration>>software-sources, and make sure there is a good server under "Download From" | 02:16 |
aks_ | hello | 02:16 |
tbwnoob | i dont have windows | 02:16 |
Gopher | I have a trouble printing on a Windows networked printer... in booting windows it's second nature right there...but on nix with samba i can't even find it | 02:16 |
IndyGunFreak | !defrag | 02:17 |
ubotu | The default Ubuntu filesystem (ext3) is engineered to avoid fragmentation issues in most cases, see http://linkpot.net/behead/ for a simple example on how it achieves this. A package "defrag" is available in !Universe, however its use is not safe, and is generally not needed. | 02:17 |
tbwnoob | i have wine | 02:17 |
tbwnoob | okay | 02:17 |
tbwnoob | so i dont need to defrag? | 02:17 |
IndyGunFreak | tbwnoob: thats the just of it. | 02:17 |
clearzen | tbwnoob: not with ext3 filesystems | 02:17 |
IndyGunFreak | tbwnoob: your windows drive, maybe, not w/ ext3 | 02:17 |
tbwnoob | okay | 02:17 |
aks_ | I've just downgraded to Edgy so that I can get the right ATI driver (install on 7.10 didn't work) and now would like to upgrade again; any ideas whether the driver will be kept? | 02:17 |
tbwnoob | so what do i do now | 02:17 |
IndyGunFreak | tbwnoob: what are you tryikng to do? | 02:18 |
metaljim | ha, got pidgin to work with this. i know, impressive huh? | 02:18 |
tbwnoob | make more saving space | 02:18 |
derelicked | aks_: if you change versions, of course you will lose the old driver | 02:18 |
IndyGunFreak | aks_: maybe.., | 02:18 |
CJS3141 | thanks derelicked... hang on... | 02:18 |
crotte | Hi, I justed installed ubuntu and the apps are start slowly. So I ran hdparm to verify my hard disk speed: Timing buffered disk reads: 10 MB in 3.05 seconds = 3.28 MB/sec is this fast enought? | 02:18 |
metaljim | so, once again, just to make sure i'm in the right place, there's no "new user" channel is there? | 02:18 |
Fryguy-- | crotte: that is very very slow | 02:18 |
Hammer89 | Grrr... anyone know why firestarter is running even after I uninstalled it? (I uninstalled it... then pressed ctrl-alt-backspace... logged in... but it was still ruining my ability to SSH into my laptop from my iPod [don't ask :P]) | 02:18 |
aks_ | derelicked: but in fact it's the newest driver that supports my card (Mob. Radeon 9000) | 02:19 |
crotte | fryguy: this is my problem? | 02:19 |
Fryguy-- | crotte: possibly | 02:19 |
tbwnoob | ? | 02:19 |
clearzen | tbwnoob: what is the filesystem of the drive you wish to make larger? what is the filsystem of the drive you are taking from? | 02:19 |
tbwnoob | ntfs | 02:19 |
tbwnoob | ? | 02:19 |
tbwnoob | thats the biggest one | 02:19 |
IndyGunFreak | tbwnoob: use Windows to defrag the drive if you feel the need, then use gparted to partition the drive. | 02:19 |
tbwnoob | in dev/sda | 02:19 |
tbwnoob | but it wont let me now | 02:19 |
tbwnoob | the resize option isnt there | 02:20 |
crotte | fryguy: what is today's standard? | 02:20 |
derelicked | aks_: I know, you're probably "Alexander_" and I'm int_main. And if you want the 8.28 driver, you have to be using ubuntu 6.10 ... there is no way around it, and if you upgrade the distro, everything else, including the driver, will have tto upgrade as well | 02:20 |
Jack_Sparrow | crotte, Edit /boot/grub/menu.lst remove Quiet and Splash from the command line. | 02:20 |
DnOberon | I don't know if any of you remember me but I had trouble with my cd iso. I tried burning it slower, way slower and on diffrent media. Tried downloading again just to make sure that the ISO's weren't corrupt from the start. At the beginning of the text install it gives me about 10 IO errors on my cd drive, would this contribute to the disc not reading well? | 02:20 |
tbwnoob | and they are all locked | 02:20 |
Fryguy-- | crotte: my drive does read speeds of around 250MB/s | 02:20 |
clearzen | Hammer89: sudo kill all firestater && /etc/init.d/networking restart | 02:20 |
clearzen | Hammer89: sudo kill all firestater && sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart | 02:20 |
Hammer89 | clearzen: it wont bug me at all after that? | 02:20 |
dpt | Hi | 02:20 |
bruenig | killall is oen word | 02:21 |
bruenig | one word* | 02:21 |
aks_ | derelicked: hi there; ah I see | 02:21 |
clearzen | my bad | 02:21 |
metaljim | i know this is a very vague question, but what would be causing 7.10 to to freeze? where should a noob begin troubleshooting? | 02:21 |
dpt | if I'm making an exact copy of my running linux to an other partition so that i can run it later, what folder should NOT be copied? | 02:21 |
aks_ | derelicked: then I guess this is really the highest version this laptop will be able to run | 02:21 |
Fryguy-- | metaljim: where does it freeze? | 02:21 |
crotte | jack_sparrow: are these windows effets? | 02:21 |
Fryguy-- | dpt: none | 02:21 |
tbwnoob | how can i get these drives to unlock | 02:21 |
derelicked | aks_: pretty much, yes, if you want any video acceleration... | 02:21 |
dpt | that means i can copy proc, dev? | 02:21 |
Jack_Sparrow | crotte, I thought you were slow to boot.. | 02:22 |
dpt | the content of those folders should also be copied? | 02:22 |
Fryguy-- | dpt: you can, yes | 02:22 |
dpt | ok, thanks! | 02:22 |
dsprague | anyone know of any problems where 8.04 gnome does not show window borders at all? i.e. can't resize/move windows. Config is geforce4 mx 420 with an IBM L200P monitor. Any ideas? I'm using the nvidia restricted drivers | 02:22 |
aks_ | derelicked: I guess I'll have to live with that - thanks again | 02:22 |
clearzen | tbwnoob: are they mounted? | 02:22 |
tanner | is there a way to force a prompt before control+alt+backspace is executed? | 02:22 |
Fryguy-- | dsprague: wrong channel, join #ubuntu+1 for hardy issuees | 02:22 |
DnOberon | if I make a usb drive bootable, and extract the ubuntu iso to it, could I use that to install ? | 02:22 |
tbwnoob | yea | 02:22 |
tbwnoob | except one | 02:22 |
derelicked | aks_: it's ATI's fault! *shakes fist* | 02:22 |
Fryguy-- | tanner: no | 02:22 |
tbwnoob | that is ntfs | 02:22 |
Gopher | I have a trouble printing on a Windows networked printer... in booting windows it's second nature right there...but on nix with samba i can't even find it | 02:22 |
metaljim | fryguy: anywhere. it always freezes if firefox or opera tries to play a youtube video, but it will randomly freeze as well, either when totally idle, or when opening a juk window, etc. that's what is confusing me. | 02:22 |
tbwnoob | should i format that one to fat | 02:22 |
Ziroda1 | dsprague: 8.04 in #ubuntu+1 please | 02:22 |
Fryguy-- | metaljim: so it boots fine? | 02:23 |
Jack_Sparrow | !install > DnOberon | 02:23 |
Tmcarr89 | help | 02:23 |
tbwnoob | should i format the ntfs drive to fat | 02:23 |
clearzen | tbwnoob: you cannot resize a ntfs partition in linux. as far as I know | 02:23 |
Ezra | dsprague: you have to add a couple if lines in your xorg.conf file | 02:23 |
DnOberon | ? | 02:23 |
Fryguy-- | metaljim: anything in /var/log that might lead to the problem? has the hardware been tested? | 02:23 |
metaljim | fryguy: yes. it boots fine (pretty quickly too). | 02:23 |
dsprague | thx...my first IRC experience :-) | 02:23 |
crotte | jack_sparrow: I really think that my hard disk is too slow... the apps take ages to load... ubuntu ran faster from the live boot CD | 02:23 |
metaljim | fryguy: sorry, but i really don't know what you mean there! | 02:23 |
tbwnoob | but i can format it to fat | 02:23 |
tbwnoob | will that help | 02:24 |
metanil | what is the best way to check password in ubuntu using C language?? | 02:24 |
=== jimmygoon_ is now known as jimmygoon | ||
Jack_Sparrow | crotte, odd not sure | 02:24 |
Fryguy-- | metaljim: look in /var/log for useful messages in your logs. If you dont' find anything that suggests a problem, test your hardware (notably your memory, using memtest86), as it sounds like a hardware issue | 02:24 |
Ziroda1 | tbwnoob: You can resize you NTFS drive to have two partitions, one for windows, one for linux | 02:24 |
Jack_Sparrow | metanil, What do you mean by check password | 02:24 |
Tmcarr89 | Anyone know how to get a "godaddy" certificate in Ubuntu? | 02:24 |
Fryguy-- | metanil: what password? | 02:24 |
tbwnoob | i dont want windows | 02:24 |
tbwnoob | i have another hd for that | 02:24 |
icesword | he want crack | 02:25 |
icesword | want to | 02:25 |
metaljim | ok, i'll give it a shot! just to make sure, is there anything in particular to watch out for? | 02:25 |
metanil | system password | 02:25 |
Sandra24 | maybe you guys can help me, I want to create an account on my server for a friend, so I created a user with useradd and gave him a home directory, but I notice this user can still read all the system files in /bin, /etc, and so on | 02:25 |
aks_ | any good guides on getting hibernate to work in Edgy? | 02:25 |
metanil | one in /etc/shadow | 02:25 |
Fryguy-- | metanil: there is no "system password" in ubuntu. You'll have to be more specific | 02:25 |
aks_ | ubotu doesn't seem to have any pointeres | 02:25 |
clearzen | tbwnoob: fat you can work with but not ntfs | 02:25 |
Ziroda1 | tbwnoob: Then you can just use the entire disk, under install go to Guided Install -> Use entire disk | 02:25 |
tbwnoob | i know | 02:25 |
ngabriel | please help. I'm trying to mount a samba share and i cannot get it to mount with write permissions. I have writeable=yes in smb.conf and i've mounted with using cifs using dir_mode=0777 and file_mode=0777 and that still does not work. What am i missing? | 02:25 |
seismicmike | hi guys | 02:25 |
tbwnoob | but i didn | 02:25 |
tbwnoob | t so im in gparttion | 02:25 |
metanil | there should be some function like getspnam to check the shadow password.. isn't it? | 02:26 |
Sandra24 | I would prefer if my friend cannot read all my config files, how do I limit the user? | 02:26 |
octoberdan | I tried enabling DMA and putting UltraDMA to mode2 on my dvd device, but when I try to mplayer dvd:// I'm getting chopy video that cuts in and out and is sometimes scrambled | 02:26 |
tbwnoob | im going to format it to fat32 | 02:26 |
metanil | Fryguy, there should be some function like getspnam to check the shadow password.. isn't it? | 02:26 |
Fryguy-- | metanil: passwords in /etc/shadow are stored using md5 hash I think in ubuntu (varies from distro to distro). just ask for password, hash it, and compare to result in shadow | 02:26 |
tbwnoob | then use it | 02:26 |
octoberdan | I'm on gutsy | 02:26 |
Fryguy-- | metanil: yes. And this is the wrong channel to be asking questions like this. This is an ubuntu specific help channel | 02:26 |
tbwnoob | maybe format to ext 3? | 02:26 |
octoberdan | and when I play the video I get "a52: CRC check failed!" | 02:26 |
Jack_Sparrow | octoberdan, sounds like you have an ati card and composite enabled in the xorg.conf | 02:26 |
=== sourcode_ is now known as sourcode | ||
derelicked | aks_: when you hibernate, you system crashes? | 02:26 |
metanil | Fryguy: oh oh.. any specific channel? | 02:27 |
seismicmike | I'm having trouble with my mp3 player | 02:27 |
Fryguy-- | metanil: no idea, ##linux might be able to point you in a better direction | 02:27 |
metanil | Fryguy, thanks | 02:27 |
octoberdan | Jack_Sparrow: Someone suggested I use the free driver instead of the restricted, but I'm already using the free driver | 02:27 |
aks_ | derelicked: yes, it goes back to an x login and then hangs | 02:27 |
Jack_Sparrow | octoberdan, sounds like you have an ati card and composite enabled in the xorg.conf | 02:27 |
bobby | hello, when i try to boot ubuntu, it just hangs. there is this trying to resume message when i do ctrl+alt+f1. what option do i pass to the kernel to stop trying to resume | 02:27 |
bobby | ? | 02:27 |
metaljim | fryguy: i'm looking in /var/log and i'm a bit lost! what should i be looking at/for? thank you! | 02:27 |
Fryguy-- | metaljim: anything out of the ordinary | 02:28 |
Fryguy-- | errors, etc | 02:28 |
derelicked | aks_: yeah, fglrx is famous for that. sorry :( | 02:28 |
octoberdan | Jack_Sparrow: I do have an ati card. So I should just disable composite in xorg.conf and restart X? | 02:28 |
Fryguy-- | metaljim: most things in there are going to be timestamped, so look through the logs at or around the time your system freezes | 02:28 |
aks_ | derelicked: heh | 02:28 |
Jack_Sparrow | octoberdan, yes, that will fix video but lose effects until you install one other xgl | 02:28 |
aks_ | derelicked: I've heard that there are altenrative programs for that | 02:28 |
seismicmike | I can't copy files onto my mp3 player even though I have full write permission on the drive | 02:28 |
octoberdan | Jack_Sparrow: I don't think I have any effects to lose... and if I did I wouldn't care. | 02:29 |
octoberdan | Jack_Sparrow: How do I disable it? | 02:29 |
derelicked | aks_: alternatives for what? | 02:29 |
aks_ | derelicked: suspend to disk | 02:29 |
Jack_Sparrow | octoberdan, gksudo gedit /etc/X11xorg.conf | 02:29 |
metaljim | wow, this is all greek to me. i'll try the memtest86 first. thanks man. | 02:29 |
seismicmike | any ideas? | 02:29 |
octoberdan | Jack_Sparrow: sudo emacs ;-). I'm there, not seeing a composite option | 02:29 |
Jack_Sparrow | octoberdan, If you need more help do this sudo apt-get install pastebinit && cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | pastebinit (Provide Pastebin link in channel) | 02:30 |
Sandra24 | I created a user with useradd -d /home/testuser -m testuser, but the user can read everything in /*, how can I make a very limited user that's restricted to their home dir? | 02:30 |
insomninja | seismicmike, do you get any error messages? | 02:30 |
octoberdan | Oh, awesome program | 02:30 |
seismicmike | nope | 02:30 |
seismicmike | it just hangs | 02:30 |
seismicmike | and kinda freezes | 02:30 |
seismicmike | it's really weird | 02:30 |
Fryguy-- | Sandra24: without doing jails or chroot stuff, that wouldn't be very useful (they wouldn't be able to run programs) | 02:31 |
Jack_Sparrow | !enter > seismicmike | 02:31 |
Scunizi | Anyone use Openoffice and attach it to mysql.. if so How easy was it? | 02:31 |
ramseize | how can i update my fiesty to a new ubuntu distro | 02:31 |
amenado | Scunizi-> its not overly difficult, make sure you have the jdbc for mysql | 02:31 |
seismicmike | sorry? | 02:31 |
derelicked | aks_: you did try the "radeon" driver, right? | 02:32 |
Jack_Sparrow | np | 02:32 |
insomninja | I'd try doing it in the terminal, something like cp /home/seismicmike/music/x.mp3 /media/mp3mountpoint | 02:32 |
Fryguy-- | ramseize: just google upgrading ubuntu to gutsy, the first like 5 results should be useful and provide step by step directions | 02:32 |

Scunizi | amenado, what's jdbc? really new at database's and such.. I thought using OOo would be easier for data entry form development. am I right? | 02:32 |
seismicmike | I tried it from a terminal and it seemed to work, but when I went to eject the drive, it asked me if I wanted to empty the trash, which I did, and then the files weren't on the player | 02:32 |
gaucho | hi! everytime my girlfriend visit me I need to reset all my configurations to hide my secret files, clear my navigation history and recent documents... Is there a easy solution to me? Which files I can't forget to delete??? | 02:33 |
derelicked | aks_: what was bad about the "radeon" driver? | 02:33 |
Fryguy-- | Sandra24: i'd imagine most of those sites are doing chrooted environments, bsd jails, or virtual machines. Ubuntu wasn't really designed to be run this way | 02:33 |
aks_ | derelicked: no acceleration | 02:33 |
icesword | gaucho, hahahah,why do you need to do that | 02:33 |
derelicked | aks_: ah, it seemed laggy? | 02:33 |
amenado | Scunizi-> JDBC java data base connector.. each database has its own version to connect to the respective db engine | 02:33 |
icesword | gaucho, you work for CIA? | 02:33 |
Scunizi | amenado, ah.. ok.. that makes sense.. thanks. | 02:34 |
aks_ | derelicked: yes, and I can only guess that hibernation would not work for it | 02:34 |

gaucho | and what about xchat, pidgin, firefox, nautilus and another programs logs.. is there a easy way? | 02:35 |
icesword | i say why creat a hidden partition ,stores all secrets there | 02:35 |
amenado | gaucho give her another account she can toy with if she can not toy with yours | 02:35 |
Jack_Sparrow | octoberdan, http://paste.stgraber.org/1622 Make a backup.. log out and in If you dont know how to change it back if it does not work.. just ask | 02:35 |
metaljim | ok, stupid question: i just DL'd memtest86 and extracted it, but i can't find it! think i did something wrong? or am i not looking hard enough? | 02:36 |
Fryguy-- | metaljim: probably in your home directory | 02:36 |
octoberdan | Jack_Sparrow: I do, thank you. | 02:36 |
prince_jammys | gaucho: you could make a script that removes all the log files | 02:36 |
Sandra24 | clearzen: Oh, that's excellent, can you help me get started please or point me in the right direction? | 02:36 |
ngabriel | can anyone tell me what i need todo in order to mount a samba share with write permissions? I've tried smbfs and cifs | 02:36 |

icesword | not really,recover is possible | 02:37 |
octoberdan | wget http://paste.stgraber.org/download/1622 :-) | 02:37 |
seismicmike | ok, I just tried it from terminal and the process hung | 02:37 |
icesword | prince_jammys, what about create a hidden partition | 02:37 |
prince_jammys | icesword: heh, overkill | 02:37 |
seismicmike | I don't get it... the drive has all the exact same settings as my USB thumb drive which works perfectly fine | 02:38 |
icesword | hnmmm?i don't get it | 02:38 |
derelicked | aks_: I wonder if you've read the following thread from 4 days ago... Rocket2DMn claims he got your exact card working great with the "ati" driver on the newest ubuntu... and he posts his xorg.conf as an example...: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=721661 | 02:38 |
octoberdan | Alright, I'll be right back | 02:38 |
Tixer__ | How can I get an application to display on a different X display? | 02:38 |
prince_jammys | icesword: not necessary | 02:38 |
Jack_Sparrow | ok | 02:38 |
clearzen | Sandra24: you want to use ssh right | 02:38 |
gaucho | I can't find truecrypt on synaptic.. using all the repositories for gutsy amd64 | 02:38 |
Ashfire908 | does anyone know what package provides the program "makeinfo"? | 02:39 |
insomninja | seismicmike, what if you open another terminal for the dmesg command? | 02:39 |
prince_jammys | !info mcrypt | gaucho | 02:39 |
ubotu | gaucho: mcrypt (source: mcrypt): Replacement for old unix crypt(1). In component universe, is optional. Version 2.6.4-3.2ubuntu2 (gutsy), package size 64 kB, installed size 264 kB | 02:39 |
clearzen | Sandra24: do you want them to have shell access or just access to files? | 02:39 |
bazhang | http://www.truecrypt.org/downloads.php gaucho | 02:39 |
gaucho | cool! | 02:39 |
icesword | is it crackable | 02:40 |
prince_jammys | if she can crack it, she's talented | 02:40 |
Sandra24 | clearzen: just to let the user upload/alter files via something like winscp is enough, but I gather that means ssh | 02:40 |
Tmcarr89 | Anyone heard of a godaddy certificate? | 02:40 |
metaljim | is there a general hardware test i can try to make sure i'm not having any other problems with my PC vs. Ubuntu? | 02:40 |
clearzen | icesword: yeah if you have phyiscal access and some liquid nitrogen | 02:40 |
seismicmike | hold on....... | 02:40 |
clearzen | Sandra24: yes it does, one sec | 02:41 |
seismicmike | if I type tail dmesg it'll give me a running update, right? | 02:41 |
Fryguy-- | truecrypt is crackable only if quantum computers become readily available, or p=np gets proven, or you use insecure practices. Truecrypt in itself is very secure. How you choose to implement it might not be | 02:41 |
Fryguy-- | seismicmike: tail -f for that | 02:41 |
prince_jammys | gaucho: would these secret files be, for example, movies? | 02:41 |
bazhang | heh | 02:41 |
rohit | hi, I accidentally deleted my Pictures folder and it got removed from the Places menu. How do I get it back? | 02:42 |
prince_jammys | because encrypting big files is pretty annoying | 02:42 |
insomninja | rohit, drag it | 02:42 |
icesword | prince_jammys, hehhe,i got what you mean | 02:42 |
Fryguy-- | prince_jammys: i'd be surprised if you noticed you were using truecrypt for doing encryption | 02:42 |
RoAkSoAx | hello, does anyone knows if there are any dependencies error in Ubuntu Fiesty Fawn mysql package? | 02:42 |
dsprague | thx Jordan_U you were right, disabled compiz, all working well. | 02:42 |
insomninja | rohit, that is, find it where it lies with nautilus, and drag the folder to the places space to the left | 02:42 |
derelicked | rohit: in the file explorer, make a folder called Pictures, and then go in it, and go to bookmarks>>add-bookmark | 02:43 |
Fryguy-- | RoAkSoAx: no there isn't | 02:43 |
RoAkSoAx | Fryguy-- do you know if there is anyproblem with the package? | 02:43 |
Fryguy-- | RoAkSoAx: there isn't | 02:43 |
seismicmike | ok I'm going to do $ sudo cp fame.mp3 /media/mp3/fame.mp3 and see what happens | 02:43 |
Fryguy-- | any why aren't you using the latest version of ubuntu | 02:43 |
jumpkick | Does Audacity crash for anyone else loading large wave files on Gutsy/AMD64? | 02:44 |
RoAkSoAx | Fryguy--: so why do i get this error wen trying to install it: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59889/ | 02:44 |
tux97 | hello where do you go to browse networks in here at? | 02:44 |
aks_ | derelicked: judging by the xorg.conf, Rocket2DMn's card is actually slightly different: it is the FireGL R250, the Mobiity Radeon 9000 is RS300M (the one I have at least) | 02:44 |
tomcatt__ | are there any links to make a NAS our of ubuntu? | 02:44 |

metaljim | is there a general hardware test i can try to make sure i'm not having any other problems with my PC vs. Ubuntu? | 02:45 |
clearzen | Sandra24: it seems like you want sshfs. Do you have to be able to access the shares via windows machines? | 02:45 |
Fryguy-- | metaljim: memtest86 | 02:45 |
Gopher | i really hate to keep reiterating this question... but about the samba printer issue? | 02:45 |
RoAkSoAx | Fryguy--: ok thanks | 02:45 |
Gopher | i have a printer shared on my network on a windows computer on the network, and ubuntu isn't picking anything up | 02:45 |
seismicmike | oops.... sorry about that guys.... | 02:45 |
seismicmike | new to the process and all... | 02:46 |
Gopher | however on windows its blatantly shared across the whole thing | 02:46 |
metaljim | fryguy: i DL'd it, found it, but i really don't know how to run it. sorry if i'm bothering you | 02:46 |
Fryguy-- | you burn it to a CD and boot from the CD | 02:46 |
metaljim | oh | 02:46 |
Fryguy-- | or just reboot your computer and select memtest86 from the options in the menu | 02:46 |
Fryguy-- | since it's already set up to be available | 02:46 |
metaljim | ah | 02:46 |
metaljim | ok. thank you! | 02:46 |
Fryguy-- | try reading the documentation next time, instead of just downloading the file and being like "oh it doesn't work" :( | 02:46 |
kesi | hi all: I am having input device problems under gutsy. It's acting like I have stuck keys or lag, but I don't have this problem in Windows, so I don't think it's a hardware problem. | 02:46 |
kesi | it's an inspiron laptop | 02:47 |
Sandra24 | clearzen: yes, has to work on windows | 02:47 |
metaljim | the documentation made no sense to me. jsut figured i'd ask | 02:47 |

eromero | is there a way to rename the usb key when it's mounted... right now the name under /mount/ is the same as the name of the key | 02:47 |
eromero | is there a way to have it always be usbkey | 02:48 |
clearzen | Sandra24: More than likely you will have to setup a chroot/jail enviroment. That could take time. I could provide you with a link or two if you wanted. | 02:48 |
derelicked | aks_: ah, now that you mention it, hee seems to be using hardy (the one that will be used in April). Unlike the official proprietary drivers, the open source ones get BETTER support with time, rather than removing it.... | 02:48 |

Kanja | Hey, I'm hitting a wierd bug when trying to install the propriatary nvidia drivers - anyone have any experiance with them? | 02:48 |
danbhfive | Kanja: whats the bug? | 02:48 |
Fryguy-- | Kanja: be more specific | 02:48 |
Sandra24 | clearzen: I have to go, thank you for your help. I'll leave this up, if you have something link or info that would help get me started, or even just a name of the technology involved like sshfs, please post it to me here, I'll read it when I return. Thanks again. | 02:49 |

=== Gopher is now known as Gopher99 | ||
Kanja | if they were working, it would be right when the logo pops up | 02:49 |
Kanja | I've gotten the drivers working before | 02:49 |

Gopher99 | i have a printer shared on my network on a windows computer on the network, and ubuntu isn't picking anything up | 02:50 |

Kanja | before I could use the "install restricted drivers" and now thats not working | 02:50 |
rohit | derelicked: can you try on your machine to bookmark some random folder and see if it shows up? | 02:50 |
Kanja | Yeah, clean install | 02:50 |
Kanja | wiped the drive | 02:50 |
Fryguy-- | Kanja: why would you do that? ubuntu upgrades in place just fine | 02:50 |
danbhfive | Kanja: so its just a clean install | 02:50 |

Kanja | yeah | 02:50 |
Ashfire908 | does anyone know what package provides the program "makeinfo"? | 02:50 |

mzide | ill try | 02:53 |
boselecta | clearzen: if the router is set to WPA2, can you configure the clients as WPA? | 02:54 |
danbhfive | mzide: opera and flash were broken a few weeks ago, dont know what the current status is | 02:54 |
eromero | but using fstab makes it not automount it when you connect and re-connect only at reboot | 02:54 |
clearzen | boselecta: nope, you would have to set the router to WPA | 02:54 |
danbhfive | eromero: are you sure? it does it for cd-roms and such | 02:55 |

bmac2 | I see a fix mentioned | 02:57 |
clearzen | seismicmike: ctrl c should kill the process in the terminal that is hanging | 02:57 |
bmac2 | but nowhere do I find where that fix is, or what it is | 02:57 |

bmac2 | thanks Jack_Sparrow | 03:00 |
seismicmike | It's not responding... and even if I could is there anywhere I can check to see if there's some setting that's messed up? It just doesn't make sense to me that this works fine with windows but just won't work in Ubuntu - even though it has the same exact settings as my mp3 player.... Does anyone know of an possibilities? I refuse to beleive that there just isn't an explanation of this. It should just treat it like a USB drive. | 03:00 |
Jack_Sparrow | bmac2, Just a place to start | 03:00 |

irishwhistle | my question is this: All flash content in FF is jerky, I don't have the prob in Xubuntu, but I prefer Ubuntu. I've even tried in Failsafe on ubuntu and it doesn't make a difference. How should I fix this? | 03:14 |

mttr | help looking for a way to install ubuntu on a laptop without cdrom or usb access | 03:14 |
prince_jammys | morse code style | 03:15 |
boselecta_ | too bad ubuntu doesn't effectively support WPA / WPA2. | 03:15 |
Fryguy-- | must_Bow: you need to give proper credentials, look at your caps lock key or something | 03:15 |
Scunizi | !netinstall | 03:15 |
ubotu | Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install?

mttr | would prefer installion from a alternate partition | 03:15 |
boselecta_ | Fryguy--: is that not already installed in 7.10? | 03:15 |
must_Bow | I'm sure there is nothing wrong... with I type | 03:15 |
seismicmike | I'm installing gnomad2 now. I'll let everyone know if there's a problem. I may also need libmtp. | 03:15 |
Scunizi | mttr check out ubotu links above | 03:15 |
ar0nic | boselecta_ whats that? | 03:15 |
boselecta_ | wpa_supplicant | 03:16 |
irishwhistle | All flash content in FF is jerky, I don't have the prob in Xubuntu, but I prefer Ubuntu. I've even tried in Failsafe on ubuntu and it doesn't make a difference. How should I fix this? Please help! Thanks. :) | 03:16 |
ar0nic | im having issues | 03:16 |
ar0nic | i get that error when my wireless nic is plugged in | 03:16 |
mttr | i have looked for a long time but can't find a way to intall via alternate partion (move iso file to secound partion) | 03:16 |
mttr | will check again | 03:16 |
Scunizi | seismicmike, the other method mentioned is canging something inthe rom | 03:16 |
boselecta_ | like, if i use network manager to configure a WPA2 connection, is that not effectively a front-end to wpa-supplicant? | 03:16 |
shawn__ | hey guys | 03:16 |
shawn__ | how do i change my parttioned space to lock so i have more space i have them all unlocked right now | 03:17 |
boselecta_ | at any rate, it's not good that i have to use WEP128 because WPA2 is not working straightforwardly. | 03:17 |
Fryguy-- | boselecta_: no idea, you've been in here for hours trying to figure out this problem instead of out on the internet, so I figured i'd help you along, and maybe convince you to go google wpa_supplicant and be on your way | 03:17 |
irishwhistle | my flash is jerky in ff. please help. | 03:18 |
ub3rst4r | i am trying to install my dlink wireless usb card on ubuntu, it is being detected but none of the lights are coming on on the adapter. do i need to be doing something? | 03:18 |
icesword | irishwhistle, version 9 | 03:18 |
JohnPhys | irishwhistle, are desktop effects turned on? | 03:18 |
ar0nic | ei dunno im still a bit of noob but when my wireless nic is pluggin in on boot it freezes, if i plug the card in while the pc is on the system becomes unstable, and if i reboot i get the wpa-supplicant error, which requires a hard boot then a host of network errors | 03:18 |
irishwhistle | no desktop fx | 03:18 |
irishwhistle | and it's the latest flash | 03:18 |
boselecta_ | hm well certainly i've done the googling and the best i could come up with in here was that most of the wireless drivers don't support WPA2, and the situation is only marginally better with WPA. | 03:18 |
seismicmike | hmmm... well I apparently already have libmtp preinstalled.... | 03:18 |
seismicmike | Scunizi: I'll try that if gnomad doesn't work. I'll have to get more details too. | 03:19 |
TrueNme | how do you install .bin files ? | 03:19 |
irishwhistle | I have 256MB of ram, but that can't be it because it doesn't even wok in failsafe, but it does in Xubuntu | 03:19 |
icesword | TrueNme, trust me,this time,i got it | 03:19 |
prince_jammys | TrueNme: is this an application you downloaded? | 03:19 |
Fryguy-- | TrueNme: if you truly have an install program that is a .bin, just run it | 03:19 |
irishwhistle | JohnPhys, no desktop fx | 03:20 |
ar0nic | boselecta_ built in network, pcmcia card? usb? | 03:20 |
icesword | TrueNme, chomod 755 .bin file | 03:20 |
octoberdan | Without X running, the terminal's text is huge and the bottom half of it is off the screen | 03:20 |
boselecta_ | ar0nic: it's built-in. it uses ipw2100 | 03:20 |
irishwhistle | icesword, it's the latest flash version | 03:20 |
icesword | TrueNme, then ./.bin file | 03:20 |
octoberdan | How can I adress this? | 03:20 |
JohnPhys | irishwhistle, sorry, that's my only idea. I know cpu% goes through the roof when watching flash with compiz enabled. | 03:20 |
TrueNme | prince_jammmys yes i downloaded a .bin file for the client of my game | 03:20 |
icesword | TrueNme, trust me | 03:20 |
icesword | let it go | 03:21 |
icesword | try it,trueme | 03:21 |
irishwhistle | johnphy, strange thanks for trying to help anyway | 03:21 |
TrueNme | icesword i dont understand what your telling me to do | 03:21 |
prince_jammys | TrueNme: yes, if you're going to run it, you go to the directory where the file is in a terminal, then you chmod +x filename.bin, and then you execute with: ./filename.bin | 03:22 |
Scunizi | TrueNme, in a terminal move to the director with the .bin file. Then type ./<filename.bin> | 03:22 |
ar0nic | wish i could help, it recognized my card on the first time the machine booted, then froze and hasnt worked since | 03:22 |
octoberdan | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=120449 <-- solution to the terminal problem | 03:22 |
prince_jammys | TrueNme: what game? | 03:22 |
MattJ | Pooky: Better late than never, but jabberd2 works for me | 03:22 |
TrueNme | prince_jammys what is chmod +x | 03:22 |
seismicmike | hrg... I have to use JuK I think.... I prefer Amarok... | 03:22 |
icesword | TrueNme,open a terminal,type chomod 755 .bin file | 03:23 |
MattJ | Pooky: But I use bdb backend | 03:23 |
irishwhistle | JohnPhys, do you think it would be worth a shot in another browser? | 03:23 |
prince_jammys | TrueNme: it's the command you type | 03:23 |
Scunizi | TrueNme, it make the file executable | 03:23 |
prince_jammys | TrueNme: chmod +x filename.bin && ./filename.bin | 03:23 |
TrueNme | scunizi thank you | 03:23 |
ngabriel | anyone know why my samba linux share would be writable when hit from windows but not after being mounted in linux? | 03:23 |
JohnPhys | irishwhistle, it's always worht a shot, but it's odd that it works in Xubuntu and not gnome | 03:23 |
Scunizi | TrueNme, np.. simple answers are sometimes better.. what game is it? | 03:24 |
icesword | TrueNme, after that,./.bin file | 03:24 |
irishwhistle | JohnPhys, ok... that's the part that annoys me because I hate XFCE | 03:24 |
JohnPhys | ngabriel, what is the configuration of the share in /etc/samba/smb.conf | 03:24 |
ngabriel | i tried both writeable=yes and read only = no | 03:24 |
TrueNme | scunizi planet shift | 03:24 |
ngabriel | JohnPhys, is that what you mean? | 03:25 |
Pooky | MattJ: I was trying to use the jabberd2 documentation, but I can't find the binary to run | 03:25 |
Pooky | mattj: just to test, and the init.d script didn't seem to make much sense either | 03:25 |
MattJ | Pooky: sudo /etc/init.d/jabberd2 start | 03:25 |
MattJ | (re)start | 03:25 |
JohnPhys | ngabriel, possibly what do you want the share to behave like? (writable by all, some, none, etc.) | 03:25 |
TrueNme | when in a folder is there a way to open a terminal at that location ? | 03:25 |
MattJ | Pooky: jabberd2 is a handfull of programs that work together | 03:25 |
ngabriel | JohnPhys, writeable to user ngabriel | 03:26 |
MattJ | Pooky: It should say something like: Starting resolver... sm... c2s... etc. | 03:26 |
JohnPhys | ngabriel, do you want it browsable by anyone? readable? | 03:26 |
Scunizi | TrueNme, where did you download the file to? | 03:26 |
cyphase | anyone know where i can get an iso of an old linux distro? old meaning older then ~2002 | 03:26 |
Pooky | MattJ: yeah, it doesn't say anything like that :/ | 03:26 |
icesword | TrueNme, app>accessory>termianl | 03:26 |
bazhang | cyphase: what are you trying to accomplish? | 03:27 |
MattJ | Pooky: Hmm, does it say anything at all? (also, what version of Ubuntu?) | 03:27 |
Pooky | MattJ: sudo /etc/init.d/jabberd2-ldap-mysql restart, and then it just says starting, fand then stops | 03:27 |
cyphase | bazhang: nothing.. i just want to see what it's like :) | 03:27 |
MattJ | Hmm | 03:27 |
ngabriel | JohnPhys, yes. I should add that I also have: available=yes and browsable=yes in smb.conf | 03:27 |
MattJ | Pooky: Check /var/log/jabbersomething | 03:27 |
JohnPhys | ngabriel: so you want everyone to read it, but only you to be able to write to it? | 03:28 |
Pooky | MattJ: ubuntu 7.10 | 03:28 |
ngabriel | JohnPhys: yes | 03:28 |
Pooky | MattJ: nothing in the log dirs, I have a jabberd2 and a jabber directory | 03:28 |
seismicmike | er... maybe not... it says "No jukeboxes found on USB bus." What does that mean? | 03:28 |
MattJ | Pooky: Ok, I have it on 7.04 | 03:29 |
JohnPhys | ngabriel: .....hmm.........I don't know if I know how to do that, actually. It depends on how "available", "browsable" and "public" all behave together. I think you want public = no, browsable = yes, and earlier in teh file, security = user | 03:29 |
Pooky | I'm considering isntalling from source at this point, --with-mysql might be easier :P | 03:29 |
TrueNme | Thank you everyone for the .bin install help | 03:29 |
seismicmike | Well this doesn't seem to be working at all.... What's this changing the rom thing? | 03:29 |
ccarey | nitromaster: sup? | 03:29 |
JohnPhys | ngabriel: if you set writable = no, then noone at all can write to it, so don't do that if you intend to write to the drive as user ngabriel | 03:30 |
nitromaster | ccarey, not much | 03:30 |
Scunizi | seismicmike, read the link.. but be very careful | 03:30 |
=== soldats_ is now known as soldats | ||
MattJ | Pooky: :P | 03:30 |
Pooky | MattJ: I've been googling for a bit, but do you know of any jabber howtos ont he ubuntu site that I might have missed? | 03:30 |
MattJ | Pooky: If you want to run manually, start with jabberd2-router, then the others | 03:30 |
ccarey | hey nitromaster, why'd my unrar being retarded? | 03:30 |
seismicmike | which link? I think I missed it. Sorry I'm kinda spacey right now I'm also at work. | 03:30 |
Pooky | MattJ: why is it on the jabberd2 site, they say just start jabberd, is it just a startup script of some kind? | 03:31 |
nitromaster | ccarey, i don't know. describe the situation please | 03:31 |
TrueNme | trying to install this game it wants to install to /opt which isnt writable to me how do i fix this ? | 03:31 |
Scunizi | seismicmike, the 3rd on down on www.google.com/linux after entering the model number of your samsung | 03:31 |
MattJ | Pooky: I don't know, jabberd2 is lacking good docs :/ | 03:31 |
MattJ | Pooky: I have only ever used it as an Ubuntu package | 03:31 |
ngabriel | JohnPhys, at the end of the day, all i'm interested is user ngabriel. my security is currently = user, public = no, writable=yes, browsable=yes, available=yes, valid users=ngabriel... One weird thing is that if i access the share from a windows box (as ngabriel), everything works. Its only a problem when mounting the share from another linux box (using smbfs or cifs) | 03:31 |
bazhang | http://ftp.riken.jp/Linux/mandrake/old/iso/ cyphase old enough for you? | 03:32 |
ngabriel | JohnPhys, sorry, correction. i dont have any setting for writeable. | 03:32 |
Fryguy-- | ngabriel: when mounting *nix to *nix, look at using nfs instead, it's faster | 03:32 |
ccarey | nitromaster, well i did a sudo apt-get install unrar-free as usual, and well it got a segmentation fault when trying to unpack a rar for d2x-xl, descent 2 and i really want to play, any suggestions? you're an unrar master right? | 03:32 |
TrueNme | can i run this .bin file so that it can install to default dir.? | 03:33 |
Fryguy-- | TrueNme: run it as root | 03:33 |
Pooky | MattJ: Oh yeah, I ran into this earlier, all the jabberd2-resolver, etc binaries, point to /etc/jabberd, though the package installed configs were installed in /etc/jabberd2 | 03:33 |
nitromaster | ccarey, this seems like a classic problem. do dpkg --purge unrar to fix any and all problems you have | 03:33 |
Pooky | I guess I could just symlink it or something :/ | 03:33 |
TrueNme | fryguy what about as su ? | 03:33 |
JohnPhys | ngabriel: when you mount it on the linux box, are you making sure to not mount it read-only? | 03:33 |
cyphase | bazhang: close enough :P | 03:33 |
MattJ | Pooky: Ah, use -c <config file> | 03:33 |
Starnestommy | TrueNme: use sudo | 03:33 |
Gopher99 | i'm so disappointed | 03:33 |
MattJ | Pooky: jabberd2-router -c /etc/jabberd2/router.xml | 03:33 |
Gopher99 | i've asked the same question 5 times in here, once in #samba, and no help in 2 hours | 03:34 |
nitromaster | ccarey, actually, first do dkpg -l urar and tell me your output | 03:34 |
Fryguy-- | TrueNme: su is root | 03:34 |
bazhang | Gopher99: two hours? heh that is not long | 03:34 |
seismicmike | OH ok... sorry... I'm going to follow this and be very careful... especially since I have the YP-U3 and not the YP-U3J.... don't know if there's a significant difference, but hopefully not. | 03:34 |
ccarey | nitromaster: bash: dkpg: command not found | 03:34 |
Starnestommy | ccarey: it's dpkg | 03:34 |
nitromaster | ccarey, sorry, it's dpkg | 03:34 |
Scunizi | seismicmike, good luck | 03:34 |
seismicmike | I'm also going to go get lunch b/c I'm so spacey :) | 03:34 |
Gopher99 | bazhang, it's long to be sitting in a chatroom trying to get a printer to install so that i can print a report and get some sleep | 03:34 |
ngabriel | JohnPhys: no i'm not *sure*. Here is my mount command: sudo mount -t cifs -o username=ngabriel,password=blah,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777 //server/foo /mnt/bar | 03:34 |
Pooky | MattJ: since this seems like it'll at least get me started for testing, do you know if there's any particular order these daemons have to be started outside of the resolver being first? | 03:34 |
MattJ | Gopher99: Maybe the forums if IRC isn't working out for you | 03:35 |
ngabriel | JohnPhys, I also tried setting /mnt/bar as 777 | 03:35 |
bazhang | Gopher99: please restate your problem | 03:35 |
Gopher99 | I try to install this printer on my linux box. every windows computer on the entire network is picking it up, yet they dont even recognize the ubuntu box. "Supposedly" the Ubuntu box is in the same workgroup. However it also does not recognize the printer. | 03:35 |
Gopher99 | My conclusion is that the Ubuntu box is not in the workgroup, and i have trouble putting it there | 03:35 |
Pooky | MattJ: sorry to ask what are probably basic questions, but the documentation, and the package, have left me a little confused... | 03:35 |
MattJ | Pooky: I think as long as the resolver is up, it doesn't matter | 03:35 |
Gopher99 | How can i have a sure-fire guarantee that it's in the workgroup | 03:35 |
EnK | sorry... | 03:35 |
Pooky | MattJ: thanks much! | 03:35 |
ccarey | nitromaster, No packages found matching urar. i think urar is misspelled, let me try using unrar instead | 03:35 |
Scunizi | Gopher99, install avahi | 03:35 |
TrueNme | ubuntu comes default with gnome right ? | 03:35 |
tonyyarusso | TrueNme: yes. | 03:35 |
TrueNme | ty | 03:36 |
bazhang | Gopher99: what printer, is samba working otherwise, any error messages you are getting | 03:36 |
JohnPhys | ngabriel: should it be -t smbfs rather than -t cifs? | 03:36 |
Gopher99 | it's an hp photosmart 7550 | 03:36 |
MattJ | Pooky: Yes, I know :) Thankfully develop with Jabber, so I know a bit about the different server already | 03:36 |
MattJ | *servers | 03:36 |
icesword | TrueNme, ok? | 03:36 |
ngabriel | JohnPhys, i've tried both. I can mount using both commands, but can't write using either | 03:36 |
bazhang | Gopher99: my question had three parts | 03:36 |
ccarey | nitromaster, i think the problem might be the rar file and not unrar. i'll try redownloading and unpackaging | 03:36 |
nitromaster | ccarey, good idea. just come again if it doesn't work | 03:37 |
TrueNme | how do i find out what group my user is in ? | 03:37 |
Gopher99 | bazhang, earlier i tried sharing a folder on it, it gave me an error "255" i believe, saying user share was disabled | 03:37 |
ngabriel | JohnPhys: Here is my smbfs mount command: sudo mount -t smbfs -o username=ngabriel,password=blah,fmask=0777,dmask=0777 //server/foo /mnt/bar | 03:37 |

MattJ | zero88: Yes, but is it related to Ubuntu? | 03:37 |
zero88 | Gopher99, would you happen to know how to make a library? | 03:38 |
Gopher99 | nope | 03:38 |
zero88 | MattJ, no but i cant seem to get ANY help with his in /C++ | 03:38 |
Gopher99 | not quite that | 03:38 |
zero88 | k | 03:38 |
JohnPhys | ngabriel: Sorry, I don't know much more than that about samba. Have you tried mounting without sudo? I can't remember if that's allowed for samba mounts. Also, check /mnt/bar and make sure you have write access to it | 03:38 |
TrueNme | what permisions should i install ? | 03:39 |
ngabriel | JohnPhys, from the client side (where i'm mounting and writing), I do everything using sudo | 03:39 |
bazhang | Gopher99: you might try restating your problem to one of samba then; hp printers are very well supported in Linux this thread may help with error 255 http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?s=ba1c24e9851b4998ced88db3a2f94e0d&p=3781751&postcount=3 | 03:39 |
Falstius | zero88: it is mostly just a matter of passing the right options to the compiler (gcc or g++). A google search should bring up some instructions. | 03:39 |
Gopher99 | thank you bazhang | 03:39 |
TrueNme | what is 777? | 03:40 |
Starnestommy | TrueNme: anyone can read, write, or run it | 03:40 |
bazhang | Gopher99: often getting help here is an issue of how you state things--the more clarity the better; if you have trouble running those commands then come back | 03:40 |
Gopher99 | alright | 03:40 |
ngabriel | JohnPhys, i also tried creating a directory in my home directory and mounting there (not using sudo) and i still cannot write to it | 03:40 |

chewd | yea.. discover wasnt in there... so i installed it | 03:51 |

chewd | or does it just work in the background? | 03:52 |
JohnPhys | add uid=1000 in the options of hte mount command | 03:52 |
Scunizi | chewd, it's background thing.. | 03:52 |
JohnPhys | ngabriel: add uid=1000 in the options of hte mount command | 03:52 |
chewd | oh.. .maybe i need to reboot for it to start doing its thing then? | 03:52 |

bazhang | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=615641 Gopher99 this suggests using cups; Scunizi also has suggest avahi as a possible solution | 03:55 |

bazhang | boss this is not the channel for that thanks | 03:59 |
JohnPhys | ngabriel: make sure that before mounting, your user has read and write access to /mnt/bar, and that the stuff on the server is readable and writable by user ngabriel. The 1000 is your user id (assuming you're the first user listed on the machine). You can find your user id by going to the "Users and Groups" program in System -> Administration. The UID is greyed out in the "Advanced" tab. | 03:59 |
chewd | seems to be the norm on ubuntu for me | 03:59 |
chewd | if the network works, no sound | 03:59 |
chewd | & vice versa | 03:59 |

Scunizi | redips1, hi from san diego | 04:04 |
chewd | still no sound lol | 04:04 |
chewd | is there a config screen for pulse somewhere? | 04:04 |
redips1 | I used to live Santee ElCajon | 04:04 |
shawn__ | <chewd> do you have a onboard sound or a pci card | 04:04 |
chewd | both | 04:05 |
chewd | onboard sound is allegedly disabled | 04:05 |
shawn__ | Chewd do you have the right codecs? | 04:05 |
chewd | but has caused me no end of linux grief | 04:05 |
Scunizi | redips1, ramona | 04:05 |
chewd | thats why im wondering if theres a config screen | 04:05 |
chewd | so i can point it at my pci card | 04:05 |
redips1 | I almost moved there. Went to Phoenix Instead. | 04:05 |
Scunizi | chewd, no idea | 04:06 |
shawn__ | chewed maybe in your bios | 04:06 |
chewd | its probably trying to output to the onboard sound | 04:06 |
chewd | yea its disabled in bios | 04:06 |
shawn__ | ok | 04:06 |
chewd | but that doesnt stop it from showing up | 04:06 |
shawn__ | the onboard | 04:06 |
shawn__ | ? | 04:06 |
chewd | wish i could just burn the damn chip off the board | 04:06 |
shawn__ | lol | 04:06 |
redips1 | Does anyone know how to upgrade Gnome from 2.20 to 2.22? | 04:06 |
bazhang | shawn__: using the gparted livecd will let you resize the swap | 04:06 |
patbam | anyone play eve online? it reboots my ubuntu when i try to start it. | 04:06 |
chewd | id use the onboard sound if it actually did 4.1 sound like it claims to do | 04:07 |
shawn__ | the drives are unlocked | 04:07 |
reacuna | chewd, are you sure you've got the right modules loaded? | 04:07 |
shawn__ | bazhag | 04:07 |
chewd | modules? | 04:07 |
reacuna | aha | 04:07 |
bazhang | shawn__: but swap is not | 04:07 |
shawn__ | i am running another abuntu form another drive with the one im parttioning as a secondary | 04:07 |
chewd | sound was working up until a few min ago | 04:07 |
chewd | ubuntu does this to me all the time | 04:07 |
reacuna | like "drivers", but in linux | 04:07 |
shawn__ | yes it is | 04:07 |
chewd | ill reinstall & sound will work for the first 3 or 4 boots | 04:07 |
reacuna | mm... weird | 04:08 |
chewd | sometimes i can get it to work in totem | 04:08 |
redips1 | Sounds like a driver problem. | 04:08 |
reacuna | but are you sure you don't *do something* in between the fourth and fifth boot? | 04:08 |
shawn__ | bazhag i am running gparted form a main an dthe one im parttioning is set as secondary drive | 04:08 |
chewd | yea.. i dont think ubuntu likes turtle beach | 04:08 |
shawn__ | so none of the drives are locked | 04:08 |
bazhang | http://partedmagic.com/wiki/PartedMagic.php?n=PartedMagic.Downloads shawn__ though I prefer parted magic live cd | 04:08 |
chewd | but windows hates creative labs | 04:09 |
redips1 | Does anyone know how to upgrade gnome without reinstalling ? | 04:10 |
reacuna | what PCI sound card do you have? | 04:10 |
chewd | reacuna: turtle beach catalina | 04:10 |
Scunizi | redips1, upgrading to the next version should be pretty painless.. there'll be a prompt. | 04:10 |
chewd | linux thinks its a c-media | 04:11 |
Scunizi | redips1, upgrading OOo is more difficult.. I've never done it. | 04:11 |
chewd | must have a c-media chipset driving it | 04:11 |
smehmood | where can I go to find out how to enable the root user? the ubuntu docs just tell me not to do it | 04:11 |
redips1 | Ubuntu will let me now? | 04:11 |
redips1 | Know? | 04:11 |
Scunizi | redips1, yep.. | 04:11 |
bazhang | smehmood: why do you want to do it | 04:11 |
Scunizi | redips1, new version comes out next month sometime. | 04:12 |
smehmood | bazhang: I have an account that I want to be shared across multiple people to work on a single project so I don't have to deal with file permissions. I will routinely be logged in as that user, and would like an easy way to do actions as root, without using sudo. | 04:12 |

redips1 | Ok..I just saw a magazine article that said it was out. | 04:13 |
chewd | checking it out.. thanks | 04:13 |
bazhang | smehmood: and this is connected to the net and to irc as well? not a good idea to do it that way imo | 04:13 |

Karsyth | i remember i had an alsa problem before and those 2 files fixed it, and i deleted them since | 04:13 |
Jordan_U | bazhang, Am I missing something or is 'visparted' just a rebranded gparted? Why not use the official gparted LiveCD? | 04:13 |
smehmood | bazhang: it is a web server, and it isn't connected to IRC. also... most production systems have root passwords. sudo is mostly designed to promote good user habits of not using an interactive root shell. | 04:13 |
Karsyth | ive been through COUNTLESS guides, google searched, alsa official and un-official faqs, re-installations, drivers, #alsa, you name it ive tried it and i CANNOT get this sound to work | 04:14 |

nikrud | MrKeuner: strange. I usually use ssh but tested it just now. Does any other ftp program (like gftp) work? | 04:28 |
MrKeuner | nikrud: everything else works | 04:28 |
DrIP | why doesn't my ndiswrapper drivers load every time i reboot? | 04:28 |
nikrud | baz is givin' a gang of help tonight | 04:28 |
MrKeuner | nikrud: does your nautilus open ftp://user@domain | 04:28 |
prettyricky | moss---> just go to system---preference-----and advance desktop settings. | 04:28 |
MrKeuner | mine does not | 04:28 |
prettyricky | moss-----> go to the cube effects and hit zoom in or out.. | 04:29 |
prettyricky | hope that helps | 04:29 |
nikrud | MrKeuner: yes | 04:29 |
cocox_ | Hi there guys, when im trying to run "make" to install an aplication from source im getting this make error message, what do i have to do? http://pastebin.com/m151f1539 | 04:29 |
bazgang | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplashCustomizationHowto prettyricky | 04:29 |
moss | i tried that though ricky hold on | 04:29 |
MrKeuner | nikrud: it works? what nautilus version are you running? | 04:29 |
nikrud | MrKeuner: nautilus --version: GNOME nautilus 2.20.0 | 04:30 |
MrKeuner | nikrud: same here, I do not know why mine does not | 04:30 |
JohnRobert | cocox_: stuff generally requires you to run ./configure before running make | 04:30 |
JohnRobert | and that will normally fail...but it'll give you a hint as to why | 04:30 |
MrKeuner | nikrud can it be passive ftp or stuff like that? | 04:31 |
amenado | cocox_-> says there Install the appropriate db*-devel package first. | 04:31 |
JohnRobert | like 'missing x11' or something, you'd apt-get install x11_dev or what not | 04:31 |
prettyricky | thanks bazgang! | 04:31 |
moss | hey what is the super key binding? | 04:31 |
=== rommelhc-Away is now known as rommelhc | ||
cocox_ | amenado, right but im trying to figured out how to do it? | 04:31 |
nikrud | MrKeuner: possibly. a sec | 04:31 |
intelsdog | bazhang or anyone else listening: you know and I know Vista (MS) will not change anything to accommodate nux so any help or change with be on the nux side. | 04:31 |
bazgang | moss: windows | 04:31 |
cocox_ | amenado, i should apt-cache search for that? | 04:31 |
amenado | cocox_-> you have to read the README file that came with the source | 04:32 |
cocox_ | JohnRobert, ya but in the cbt that im watching they say that for this app i should just run make.. weird | 04:32 |
intelsdog | and in any large netwrok there will be Vista box that need to pass user ids to nux | 04:32 |
cocox_ | amenado, ok ill check thnx | 04:32 |
DrIP | why don't my ndiswrapper drivers load every time i reboot? | 04:32 |
prettyricky | not sure, but all I did was go to the cube effects and zoomed it out. also check the rotation effects that might help.. | 04:33 |

Durandal | does anyone have any ideas on how to force a Dell Latitude D620 to hard reset? I press the power button and I just get a black screen (no POST). I think it's trying to resume from suspend... removing the battery doesn't help | 04:35 |
ngabriel | JohnPhys, the user i was logging in with did not have write permissions to that directory | 04:35 |
ngabriel | JohnPhys, i had to add the user to some group and give that group write privledges | 04:35 |
ngabriel | JohnPhys, grrrr | 04:35 |
nikrud | MrKeuner: can I pm you? | 04:35 |
JohnPhys | ngabriel: sweet | 04:35 |
MrKeuner | nikrud: sure | 04:35 |
ngabriel | JohnPhys, i still dont understand why i could do it from windows | 04:35 |
ngabriel | JohnPhys, i mean, i logged on using the same info | 04:36 |
MrKeuner | bazgang: do you know by any chance if it supports mount on demand? | 04:36 |
JohnPhys | ngabriel: windows always lets you do more stuff than it's supposed to, but that is odd | 04:36 |
bazgang | MrKeuner: no idea really; just throwing that out as a possible solution | 04:36 |
cjones | i found a hacked version of windows thats perty good | 04:36 |
icesword | hhhahaha | 04:36 |
amenado | Durandal-> most dell i came across with, you press the off/on swith for a few secs | 04:36 |
cjones | oops wrong window | 04:36 |
ngabriel | JohnPhys, yeah, it screwed my up. because it allowed me to write, i just figured the server was setup properly | 04:36 |
icesword | bazgang, | 04:36 |
bazgang | icesword: yes? | 04:37 |
icesword | bazgang, have you had lunch | 04:37 |
Karsyth | alright, here we go ... http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59899/ | 04:37 |
bazgang | offtopic icesword | 04:37 |
JohnPhys | ngabriel: yeah....that is definitely odd. There may be a difference in the "smbusers" vs teh system users, so that might be wehre things are going wrong | 04:37 |
icesword | lalalala | 04:37 |
Durandal | pressing and holding power button doesn't do it. one quick press turns it "off" again. holding it down to turn it back "on" doesn't do anything special either | 04:37 |
ngabriel | JohnPhys, maybe, but man, that sucks | 04:38 |
ngabriel | JohnPhys, so much wasted time. I have to take some blame though, that was kinda dumb | 04:38 |
bazgang | Durandal: what about trying to start from a livecd? disconnect the usb hard drive and try it that way | 04:38 |
JohnPhys | ngabriel: definitely, but oh well. | 04:38 |

icesword | bazgang, i just regards to you in a chinese way,if you don't like ,let it pass,nerver mind | 04:40 |
Meneertje | durandal, do you have a usb stick at hand? | 04:40 |
Durandal | I don't see how a live cd would help anything anyway... i press the power button and literally nothing happens. | 04:40 |
tbwnoob | my update isnt working | 04:40 |
Durandal | yeah i have the stick with my persistant ubuntu install | 04:40 |
tbwnoob | does anyone know how to fx your update | 04:40 |
Karsyth | can anyone figure this out? ive tried basically every guide associated with it on google... http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59899/ | 04:40 |
Durandal | but when i power on with the stick in, the activity light never flashes | 04:40 |
Meneertje | i see... | 04:41 |
ngabriel | JohnPhys, thanks a lot, your questions made me think to check the permissions | 04:41 |
JohnPhys | ngabriel: no problem, glad to help | 04:41 |
bazgang | Durandal: the laptop will not boot at all? even the windows partition? | 04:41 |

crashhandler | any music player apps with simple interface and lighter than amarok? | 04:42 |
Meneertje | tbwnood did you check your sources list? | 04:42 |
Durandal | when i press the power button, the power led and the HD led come on. the hd led goes off after a second and then nothing. all black screen. no Dell splash screen. | 04:42 |
bazgang | Durandal: hardware issue then? | 04:42 |
JohnPhys | crashhandler: try exaile, rhythmbox, listen, or banshee | 04:43 |
crashhandler | tq | 04:43 |
bazgang | crashhandler: anything is lighter than amarok ;] | 04:43 |
Durandal | i wouldn't think so, unless messing with ubuntu's acpi-support settings then shutting down would fry my hardware | 04:43 |
crashhandler | installed xmms but when i click the shortvut via xfce menu,nothing happened! | 04:43 |
noosphere | hey all - is there a way to submit a password to pam_cracklib.so at the commandline to check for complexity compliance before commiting the password change? | 04:44 |
Durandal | I followed the instructions half way down this page: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam/DellLatitudeD620 | 04:44 |
bazgang | Durandal: your laptop will not boot under any condition? is that correct? | 04:44 |
tbwnoob | the source list is messed up | 04:44 |
Durandal | correct | 04:44 |
tbwnoob | is says the doctype is unknown | 04:44 |
Meneertje | is it possible to select someone in particular on chat? | 04:45 |
bazgang | Durandal: then that is a definite hardware situation | 04:45 |
tbwnoob | icesword | 04:45 |

tbwnoob | thats the error | 04:46 |
legend2440 | Karsyth: is this a laptop? what brand sound card? | 04:46 |
bazgang | Durandal: I would really like to see you get this fixed; but not sure as you yourself have said that your laptop will not boot under any conditions whatsoever. | 04:46 |
Durandal | bazgang: it would be real easy to dismiss it as hardware, but i don't have that luxury right now... considering the last thing i did before shutting down was mess with acpi settings (hibernate/suspend/etc) it seems much more likely that the computer is trying to come out of some suspended state | 04:46 |
Karsyth | legend2440: nope, desktop with integrated sound Biostar p4m900-m4 | 04:47 |
Meneertje | tbwnood, you really need to include wine? | 04:47 |

dontpanic | I'm having a bit of a problem. I installed windows on a sata disk to test something, then put that disk as sata2 and put my debian disk back as sata1. Now debian doesn't seem to be detecting sata2 at all (in gparted or fdisk), but it's detected in the bios settings. I'm guessing the windows installation did something wierd to it. Is there some way to completely blank out the disk or atleast get it detected by gparted or fdisk? | 04:49 |

spunkloaf | prince_jammys: Wow, how does that work? Is it built in or what? I'm just learning linux and ubuntu | 05:24 |

lancerocke | Hi.... Is there any way to change widget styles i GNOME how you do it in KDE? | 05:24 |
spunkloaf | prince_jammys: thanks alot, will try to read more next time. Hope I'm not in over my head with learning this new system, because it looks and runs way cooler than windows. | 05:26 |
prince_jammys | spunkloaf: there are servers which hold thousands of packages. the system is called APT. it downloads and installs the packages and keeps track of versions, etc. Apt-get is a command that lets you install and remove packages installed this way. you can also do it through GUI with "Synaptic" | 05:26 |
prince_jammys | spunkloaf: avoid getting stuff from the internet unless you have to | 05:26 |
spunkloaf | prince: I see, so most everything I need I can get from within ubuntu? | 05:27 |
prince_jammys | spunkloaf: yes | 05:27 |
bazhang | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Training spunkloaf this may help as well | 05:27 |
prince_jammys | spunkload: once you get the hang of it, it's not difficult. it's easier. imagine you could just install stuff that way in windows | 05:28 |

n2diy | spunkloaf: It is, how to use Ubuntu. | 05:40 |
spunkloaf | I mean a program as in executable | 05:40 |
pygmymath | ngabriel: how different are they? | 05:41 |
n2diy | spunkloaf: They aren't executables, they are PDFs, Portable Document Format. | 05:41 |
bazhang | pygmymath: you seen their channel yet? they have a wiki for that as well | 05:41 |
spunkloaf | I see that now | 05:41 |
ngabriel | pygmymath: gentoo cp support -g (which i want) and ubuntu cp does not. -g shows a progress bar (like wget and scp) | 05:42 |

bowwowadmin | anyone gotten eclipe php to work? | 06:00 |
lancerocke | I mean widget styles like buttons for GNOME | 06:00 |
lancerocke | Hi.... Does anyone know if there is there any way to change widget styles i GNOME how you do it in KDE? | 06:01 |
bazhang | lancerocke: if you want pretty then gnome is perhaps not the best choice ;] | 06:01 |
woodwizzle | looks like ie4linux may work | 06:01 |
nikrud | lancerocke: system->prefs->appearance ? | 06:01 |
pygmymath | woodwizzle: good news.. im gonna love changing to 64 by the sounds of things | 06:02 |
=== rat32 is now known as Palace | ||
joatha_ | linuxac | 06:02 |
lancerocke | nikrud: no because there isnt widget control by default | 06:02 |
nikrud | lancerocke: I think you need to explain in more detail what you mean by widget, apparently it's not translating | 06:02 |
lancerocke | bazhang: does that answer my question though? i dont mean to be rude, but.... i dont think it answers my question | 06:02 |
nikrud | bowwowadmin: if you mean the pdt plugin for eclipse, yes | 06:03 |
GCtoday | Hello all, I am still having trouble with installing both vlc and irssi is I am using all the right commands with apt-get etc etc and it keeps saying 'No candidate version for irssi' it is doing the same for a vlc download. Why is this happening? | 06:03 |
lancerocke | nikrud: ok so in KDE you can control the kinds of buttons you see universally easily by going to settings>appearance>styles and just controlling that one aspect of the UI | 06:04 |
legend2440 | lancerocke: system?preferences>appearance>customize>icons is that what you mean? | 06:04 |
nikrud | !gutsysources | GCtoday (probably don't have all the repos enabled) | 06:04 |
ubotu | GCtoday (probably don't have all the repos enabled): 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). | 06:04 |
Flannel | GCtoday: What version of ubuntu are you using? and what tweaking have you done to your sources.list? (you don't have main enabled) | 06:04 |
lancerocke | nikrud: http://www.kde-look.org/index.php?xsortmode=high&page=0&xcontentmode=14 | 06:04 |
nikrud | lancerocke: ah. No. You can't do that in gnome | 06:04 |
pygmymath | love ubotu | 06:04 |
legend2440 | lancerocke: system>preferences>appearance>customize>icons is that what you mean? | 06:04 |
steve__ | Is there an instant messenger that can send an IM with a command in terminal? | 06:05 |
lancerocke | legend2440: not icons, but buttons and radio buttons and scrolbar and gradients | 06:05 |
iamlegend | irssi | 06:05 |
Dangermike | steve__: centerim | 06:05 |
cameron | there's the ncurses version of pidgin as well | 06:05 |
lancerocke | nikrud: thanks | 06:05 |
cameron | and there's fama | 06:05 |
lancerocke | legend2440: thats another aspect all on its own | 06:06 |
ngabriel | can anyone give me a pointer as to how to fix this compile error (when compiling coreutils): In file included from utimecmp.c:33: | 06:06 |
ngabriel | utimens.h:2: error: conflicting types for 'futimens' | 06:06 |
ngabriel | //usr/include/sys/stat.h:370: error: previous declaration of 'futimens' was here | 06:06 |
bazhang | http://linuxfud.files.wordpress.com/2007/02/gnome-panel-color-changes.png like this lancerocke? | 06:06 |
steve__ | Dangermike: i know thats a terminal messenger, but are there commands rather than the interface? like..i want to be able to send an instant message from a widget or something, so i need a program i could do that with | 06:06 |
cameron | how do you remove the graphical login screen? | 06:06 |
lancerocke | nikrud: do u think there is an app that will allow that? | 06:06 |
cameron | i want to use the terminal to login | 06:06 |
martzipAN^ | what is the diffrent btween commands with | and ; ? like ls -l; who and ls -l | who .... ? | 06:06 |
Dangermike | steve__: eh its just a cli im AFAIK | 06:06 |
lancerocke | banhang: no.. i will show you | 06:06 |
pygmymath | finch = terminal pidgin | 06:06 |
nikrud | lancerocke: no, the theme building/control is limited in gnome. Mostly done by hand in text files | 06:06 |
pygmymath | also tmsnc = terminal msn | 06:06 |
pygmymath | cameron theres a start up screen editor | 06:07 |
lancerocke | bazhang: http://www.kde-look.org/CONTENT/content-pre3/67383-3.jpg | 06:07 |
steve__ | pygmymath: interfaced or can you type for example finch screenname msg, and it will send the message? | 06:07 |
lonejack | hi, does somebody know if it's possible to set up rsync in order to obtain an update files on date-time comparison between source/destination? Thank you, | 06:07 |
pygmymath | steve__: never used it heh so im in the dark | 06:07 |
lancerocke | nikrud: ok i will go back to KDE | 06:07 |
lancerocke | thanks for all ur help guys | 06:07 |
GCtoday | I have ubuntu 7.10 | 06:07 |
lancerocke | i really appreciate it | 06:08 |
lancerocke | l8r | 06:08 |
nikrud | lancerocke: yeah, gnome is for users, kde for tweakers ;P | 06:08 |
martzipAN^ | what is the diffrent btween commands with | and ; ? like ls -l; who and ls -l | who .... ? | 06:08 |
pygmymath | steve__: apt-getting now for the day my laptop resorts to terminals heh | 06:08 |
bazhang | umm lancerocke that is kde4 | 06:08 |
bazhang | oops | 06:09 |
nikrud | martzipAN^: the ; simply separates two commands on one line, executing them in sequence. the | sends the output of the first command into the second command | 06:09 |
Flannel | martzipAN^: ; runs the commands one after the other. | pipes the output of the first command to the input of the other. && will run a second command if the first is successful (; does it regardless) and || will run the second if the first one fails | 06:09 |
steve__ | pygmymath: lol i used centerim when i was using only terminal | 06:10 |
pygmymath | steve__: doesnt seem to work that way im afraid. i know tmsnc doesnt | 06:10 |
steve__ | pygmymath: but i need something that can open an IM and send it all in one command | 06:10 |
steve__ | ok thanks | 06:10 |
pygmymath | steve__: best finch has is auto login, but thats pretty good, onsidering how good pidgin is at that | 06:10 |
martzipAN^ | oh ok | 06:11 |
steve__ | lol | 06:11 |
Adys | is there a way to restart xkb from the commandline? | 06:11 |
martzipAN^ | so i do | 06:11 |
martzipAN^ | cp dir/www/ && chmod 664 files | 06:11 |
martzipAN^ | and if the copy success it will runs chmod? | 06:11 |
nikrud | martzipAN^: yes | 06:12 |
steve__ | what i want to do is write a program that will ping a server periodically, and if it goes down, i want it to send an SMS or IM or Email | 06:12 |
steve__ | in that order, sms, im, then email if i can't find the other options | 06:12 |
cameron | where is the kernel located in ubuntu? | 06:13 |
martzipAN^ | how do i logout from root? | 06:13 |
martzipAN^ | exit ? | 06:13 |
GCtoday | That worked a treat for irssi thanks again. | 06:13 |
pygmymath | martzipAN^: exit yes | 06:13 |
nikrud | cameron: /boot and /lib/modules/ | 06:13 |
cameron | ty nikrud | 06:14 |
Parsec300 | martinhrvn, yes, exit (from terminal anyway) | 06:17 |
nordland-iv | anyone here experienced with fluxbox? | 06:17 |
Meneertje | I have a question. when running compiz fusion.. and playing a movie, i get blue colors (in the "movie section") whenever I move that section... anyone knows how to solve this? | 06:17 |
pygmymath | nordland-iv: touched it a bit but didnt get great results | 06:17 |
pygmymath | Meneertje: do you have double bufferiing on? | 06:18 |
Meneertje | where is that setting? | 06:18 |
pygmymath | Meneertje: i think it might just be one of those things as you're moving a movie. | 06:18 |
pabix | Hello, is it possible to concatenate two audio files that have a small overlap without editing manually with audacity? Or does audacity come with a cross-correlation calculator software? | 06:18 |
bazhang | Meneertje: any advantages/reasons to keep compiz during that 2hour period? | 06:18 |
pygmymath | Meneertje: setting & the effect depends on the player i believe | 06:18 |
rybotsky | how do you become root in gedit because i can't save the file | 06:19 |
Dangermike | sudo gedit filename | 06:19 |
Adys | sudo gedit | 06:19 |
Starnestommy | rybotsky: sudo gedtit filename | 06:19 |
nikrud | chiming in: Meneertje video and compiz is problematic | 06:19 |
Meneertje | no, but i looks fancy.. and just because it can work, I would like to figure it out | 06:19 |
nikrud | no, no, no! gksudo gedit never sudo gedit | 06:19 |
Meneertje | just for the fun of it.. | 06:19 |
pygmymath | mneptok: heh nice | 06:19 |
pygmymath | nikrud: ive not had problems before.. | 06:19 |
pygmymath | Meneertje: you got wobbly windows on? | 06:19 |
nikrud | !gksudo | 06:19 |
ubotu | If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) | 06:19 |
Meneertje | yes | 06:20 |
Meneertje | also when moving the cube it becomes blue | 06:20 |
pygmymath | Meneertje: hmmmmm | 06:20 |
pygmymath | thats new actually, never did that for me | 06:20 |
pygmymath | Meneertje: which program to display video? | 06:20 |
Meneertje | all | 06:20 |
Meneertje | vlc etc etc | 06:20 |
Meneertje | all the same result | 06:20 |
nordland-iv | why never sudo gedit, I do it all the time... | 06:21 |
Dangermike | nordland-iv: read the link | 06:21 |
Meneertje | like i said, it is not serious but just would to like to have it fixed | 06:21 |
pygmymath | theres a link there to read nordland-iv | 06:21 |
pygmymath | Meneertje: not sure... which video driver? i think having a look through the video players options for double buffering might help | 06:21 |
Meneertje | gstreamer i guess | 06:22 |
cameron | how do you configure the kernel? in gentoo i would cd /usr/src/linux, make menuconfig | 06:22 |
starwolf | тут є хтось з України? | 06:23 |

pygmymath | Meneertje: i mean gu | 06:23 |
nikrud | !ru starwolf | 06:23 |

nordland-iv | Hey, does anyone know how to get rid of the button bar, and scroll bars and enable complete transparency on Xchat? Is there a configuration file I can edit? Anyone? | 06:27 |
nikrud | rybotsky: close synaptic, you can only run one package manager at at time (or the update-manager) | 06:28 |
bazhang | rybotsky: close the other installer (add/remove, synaptic) and try again | 06:28 |
nordland-iv | lol. | 06:28 |

bazhang | haha nordland-iv depends how many pleases and ??? you put in them ;] | 06:29 |
nikrud | nordland-iv: no. not unless you ask every 30 seconds ;) | 06:29 |
pygmymath | nordland-iv: im in irrsi so i cant help you on that one | 06:30 |
bullgard4 | Ich habe den Videotreiber 'i810' in /etc/X11/xorg.conf durch 'intel' ersetzt. Nun kann ich .ogg-Videos abspielen, aber der Login-Bildschirm und Evince zeigen die Zeichen im Maßstab 10 zu groß an. Wie repariert man das? | 06:30 |
Chipsa964 | heh although someone got angry i asked twice in 10 minutes | 06:31 |
pygmymath | Chipsa964: welcome to the internet :P hit me :) im playing phoenix wright at the mo so might have missed it | 06:31 |
nikrud | bullgard4: wrong channel ;) | 06:31 |
bazhang | uh bullgard4 do you need the #ubuntu-de ? | 06:31 |
Chipsa964 | haha i dont mean today | 06:31 |
Chipsa964 | but it has happened before | 06:31 |
pygmymath | bazhang: he asked in english | 06:31 |
nordland-iv | Ok, here I'll ask a simple question, where is the xchat configuration file? | 06:32 |
Chipsa964 | i asked a question and then 10 minutes later i asked again | 06:32 |
nordland-iv | whats it called rather... | 06:32 |
Chipsa964 | and some dude told me to stop spamming my question :-p | 06:32 |
pygmymath | bullgard4: I dont know about this i'm afraid. Es tut mir leid | 06:32 |
pygmymath | Chipsa964: heh.. nice of them | 06:32 |
nikrud | Chipsa964: ignore guys like that. | 06:32 |
pygmymath | nordland-iv: man xchat ? | 06:32 |
Chipsa964 | haha | 06:32 |
Chipsa964 | yeah it was kind of annoying | 06:32 |
skyion | hehe | 06:32 |
pygmymath | nordland-iv: then : then q to quit | 06:32 |
Chipsa964 | however | 06:33 |
bazhang | Chipsa964: yeah I remember that; he was out of line | 06:33 |
Chipsa964 | haha you do? | 06:33 |
bazhang | sure | 06:33 |
Chipsa964 | it was like a week or so ago | 06:34 |
Chipsa964 | good memory | 06:34 |
bazhang | good memory of a bad memory | 06:34 |
Chipsa964 | haha | 06:34 |
wshaddix | how do i get the ath5k drivers with 8.04? My atheros 5211 wireless card works with fedora 8 and now with the new kernel of ubuntu 8.04 i was thinking it would work also, but it doesn't | 06:34 |
Chipsa964 | im guessing it was something that most people didnt know anything about | 06:35 |
bazhang | wshaddix: #ubuntu+1 please | 06:35 |
nikrud | wshaddix: the guys in #ubuntu+1 field the hardy questions for now | 06:35 |
bazhang | Chipsa964: did you ever get that sorted? | 06:35 |
Chipsa964 | yeah | 06:35 |
Chipsa964 | i ended up figuring that it was because i needed to do a full install rather than run from livecd | 06:36 |
Chipsa964 | and i did, and tried everything from the forums | 06:36 |
Chipsa964 | and now everything works | 06:36 |
crashhandler | banshee encountered fatal error--no player engines were found \\ how to fix this? | 06:36 |
bazhang | !yay | Chipsa964 | 06:36 |
ubotu | Chipsa964: Glad you made it! :-) | 06:36 |
Chipsa964 | hahaha | 06:36 |
Chipsa964 | although | 06:36 |
Chipsa964 | when it runs on battery my screen goes dim and stuff and its weird | 06:37 |
nordland-iv | Ok, here I'll ask a simple question, where is the xchat configuration file? | 06:37 |
Chipsa964 | but whatever | 06:37 |
nordland-iv | lol, I don't need a help file it tells me nothing about where to find the config file | 06:37 |
Meneertje | question.. i installed (wubi) ubuntu here at work... but can't connect to the network... is this caused perhaps by the router here at work? | 06:37 |
Starnestommy | nordland-iv: somewhere in ~/.xchat2 | 06:37 |
bazhang | crashhandler: did the error give more info or was that it | 06:38 |
Meneertje | sorry with network i mean the internet | 06:38 |
Daisuke_Ido | wubi won't be supported until 8.04, that doesn't come out for another month, check #ubuntu+1 | 06:38 |
pygmymath | Meneertje: is it usually windows network login? | 06:38 |
pygmymath | that too | 06:38 |
Meneertje | yes | 06:38 |
Chipsa964 | bazhang, are you chinese? | 06:38 |
pygmymath | Meneertje: methinks so then. probly uses the windows login for authentication | 06:39 |
pygmymath | thats how it rolls at my uni | 06:39 |
crashhandler | bazhang: 'please be sure banshee has cleanly installed' \ other than that,it gives 5 -6 lines of error info | 06:39 |
Meneertje | ic | 06:39 |
nikrud | Daisuke_Ido: wubi will have official support with hardy? | 06:40 |
Meneertje | i tried first all the usual stuff... normal connect... use all the static details etc.. but no such luck | 06:40 |
bazhang | crashhandler: can you reproduce this error and pastebin the error message in its entirety please? | 06:40 |
Daisuke_Ido | that's my understanding | 06:40 |
crashhandler | wah,can paste here? | 06:40 |
crashhandler | ok itry | 06:40 |
Daisuke_Ido | which seems like an absolutely astonishingly bad idea | 06:40 |
bazhang | crashhandler: not here but to pastebin | 06:40 |
Meneertje | anyway not important... | 06:40 |
nikrud | I was gonna say bummer, but you said it much better | 06:40 |
no | hi, is firestarter fully featured or is another firewall better? | 06:41 |
pygmymath | Meneertje: had a similar experience. | 06:41 |
bazhang | firestarter is the front end for iptables no | 06:41 |
Meneertje | firestarter is only the graphical interface | 06:41 |
crashhandler | to make it difficult i dunno what the heck is pastebin ^_^ | 06:41 |
bazhang | !pastebin | 06:42 |
ubotu | pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic) | 06:42 |
crashhandler | err | 06:42 |
CVD-PR | Its there a guide to disable unnecessary services? | 06:42 |
nikrud | no firestarter is a front end to setting iptables, but doesn't give you complete control. shorewall is more functional, but setting the iptables rules directly is most complete | 06:42 |
no | ok, sorry you are right; I meant are the iptables included with linux fully featured? :P | 06:42 |
bazhang | not sure how to cat and pipe that to pastebinit sorry | 06:42 |
no | ok thanks | 06:42 |
Daisuke_Ido | since 8.04 the code has been merged within Ubuntu and since 8.04-alpha5, Wubi can also be found in the Ubuntu Live CD. | 06:42 |
no | but does shorewall have a gui? | 06:42 |
nikrud | no no | 06:43 |
nikrud | :) | 06:43 |
bazhang | shorewall is a gui | 06:43 |
Daisuke_Ido | and i don't understand why everyone's thinking this is so brand new, this type of thing has been around since BeOS | 06:43 |
crashhandler | bazhang : here is the my pastebin http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59903/ | 06:43 |
nikrud | I won't ever be installing wubi, so I guess I'll just pass on questions | 06:43 |
pygmymath | CVD-PR: only really unnessecary one i can think of is the tracker thing, which can be turned off somewhere in the the system menu | 06:43 |
rybotsky | HElP! i tried to run the following command and then it uninstalled AWN can anyone help | 06:43 |
rybotsky | sudo apt-get install awn-core-applets-bzr | 06:44 |
Daisuke_Ido | 90% of the people that help won't have used it nor know how to troubleshoot it... wubi has its own support forum, that may be the best option | 06:44 |
nikrud | bazhang: no, no gui for shorewall | 06:44 |
bazhang | oh oops not a gui no there is alink here to configue it http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=534190 | 06:44 |
bazhang | nikrud: mea culpa | 06:44 |
cjones | what is the command to see what processes are running? | 06:44 |
EruditeHermit | My totem-gstreamer has really bad quality. Is this normal? is totem-xine better? | 06:44 |
bazhang | cjones top | 06:44 |
pygmymath | cjones: ps -A | 06:45 |
no | yes, thank you I know about that link - but I am a newbie and configure iptables is scary :'( | 06:45 |
pygmymath | aswell | 06:45 |
* nikrud goes off to get the wubi forum site to autotext it | 06:45 | |
rybotsky | HElP! i tried to run the following command and then it uninstalled AWN can anyone help | 06:45 |
rybotsky | sudo apt-get install awn-core-applets-bzr | 06:45 |
pygmymath | rybotsky: does it tell you it's uninstalling it? | 06:45 |
bazhang | crashhandler: this is ubuntu or pclinuxos? | 06:45 |
tanner | anyone have 802.11n working under ubuntu? | 06:45 |
nikrud | EruditeHermit: it can be, yes | 06:46 |
Daisuke_Ido | here;s what i don't get | 06:46 |
crashhandler | bazhang : pclinuxos.does the troubleshoot for this just same as ubuntu? <_< | 06:47 |
Daisuke_Ido | or rather... how would i go about making totem's output default to X11 rather than xv | 06:47 |
bazhang | crashhandler from your pastebin: PCLinuxOS release 2007 | 06:47 |
rybotsky | pygmymathno i tried to install awn applets from these instructions but when i ran the command it said i will need 10 mbs of additional space and i hit y and then it ran a bunch of stuff and awn was uninstalled the site ishttp://linuxhelp.blogspot.com/2008/02/cool-awn-applets-to-adorn-your-ubuntu.html | 06:48 |

Daisuke_Ido | rybotsky, install avant-window-navigator-bzr | 06:51 |
pygmymath | Kyro_: well to be honest i hate touchpads + cube heh.. ilike to spinny it | 06:51 |
Kyro_ | Im so jealous of you :) eeepc looks sweet | 06:51 |
pygmymath | Kyro_: lemme give it a whirl heh | 06:51 |
Daisuke_Ido | the versions are conflicting | 06:51 |
bazhang | #eeepc has the goods on getting compiz working | 06:52 |
pygmymath | Kyro_: stick ubuntu on it though !! xandros is suck heh | 06:52 |
Kyro_ | oh nice, thanks bazhang | 06:52 |
pygmymath | bazhang: emerald lagged on me though | 06:52 |
Kyro_ | pygmymath, for sure - Ubuntu = win, other = fial | 06:52 |
tanner | anyone have 802.11n working under ubuntu? | 06:52 |
pygmymath | no great loss considering i barely use titlebars | 06:52 |
pygmymath | Kyro_: heh.. gnome all the way. sec and ill check out cube proper | 06:52 |
Kyro_ | thanks ^_^ | 06:53 |
bazhang | pygmymath: yeah there is that but for what I use if for no real reason to have compiz ;] | 06:53 |
rybotsky_ | HELP! when i try to install awn i get this message Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have | 06:53 |
rybotsky_ | requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable | 06:53 |
rybotsky_ | distribution that some required packages have not yet been created | 06:53 |
rybotsky_ | or been moved out of Incoming. | 06:53 |
rybotsky_ | Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that | 06:53 |
rybotsky_ | the package is simply not installable and a bug report against | 06:53 |
rybotsky_ | that package should be filed. | 06:53 |
rybotsky_ | The following information may help resolve the situation: | 06:53 |

rybotsky_ | avant-window-navigator: Depends: libawn0 (>= 0.2.1) | 06:53 |
rybotsky_ | E: Broken packages | 06:53 |
pygmymath | bazhang: mostly use terminal apps heh.. mocp for great justice! | 06:54 |
Daisuke_Ido | rybotsky, i *JUST* told you what to do | 06:54 |
Kyro_ | lol Daisuke_Ido | 06:55 |
Daisuke_Ido | avant-window-navigator-bzr | 06:55 |
pygmymath | Kyro_: ok never mind the cube is beautiful | 06:55 |
Daisuke_Ido | the versions are conflicting, you CANNOT install the other version of AWN | 06:55 |
Kyro_ | pygmymath, really?!!? I was hoping it would be, I have a box here with 8mb onboard graphics and the cube works great on that | 06:55 |
Daisuke_Ido | now to figure out why xv doesn't work for me | 06:55 |
pygmymath | Kyro_: lemme run benchmark | 06:55 |
bazhang | tanner it is supported if you have it, but the rollout of that protocol is very sparse afaik | 06:55 |
Kyro_ | people will drewl seeing cube on eeepc ^_^ | 06:56 |
ere4si | rybotsky, http://packages.ubuntu.com/gutsy-backports/libs/libawn0 | 06:56 |
Kyro_ | im using the ubuntu logo for cube caps | 06:56 |
pygmymath | Kyro_: get a 4 gigger though, disable logs or set them up to log to a ramdisk | 06:56 |
Kyro_ | :) | 06:56 |
Kyro_ | yea i was looking earlier id definatelly want the better one | 06:56 |
pygmymath | Kyro_: oh and if you can get the ramupgrade dont forget osx :P | 06:56 |
pygmymath | Kyro_: I dont want the 9" screen though.. power consumptionheh | 06:57 |
Kyro_ | lolz ubuntu is all I need :) | 06:57 |
Daisuke_Ido | ere4si, that isn't going to work either, he's trying to get the applets from the bzr repo working | 06:57 |
ere4si | k | 06:57 |
pygmymath | jeez louise | 06:57 |
pygmymath | 80 fps looking at irssi which is transparent | 06:58 |
Daisuke_Ido | i have no clue what i'm doing here :D | 06:58 |
bazhang | haha | 06:58 |
pygmymath | 100 + looking a normal window | 06:58 |
Meneertje | I know a guy who bought (the more expensive) windows installed eeepc... and it runs slllloooowww... especially Office. Then I showed him a youtube with compiz stuff and such... hehe. | 06:58 |
n2diy | I bought 10 SD cards, 8 of them work in my camera, and I can read/copy them to my Dapper box. The other 2 work in the camera, but Dapper says they aren't initialized? They are all Sandisk 32m cards. Solved? I accidentally unplugged my USB hub, and when I plugged it in, the 2 cards now work! | 06:58 |
Kyro_ | pygmymath, http://www.auspcmarket.com.au/show_image_products.php?input[category_id]=1611 those are the 4 they have listed | 06:58 |
bazhang | back to #kubuntu! | 06:58 |
Daisuke_Ido | xv works when set to NV05 video bliitter | 06:58 |
Daisuke_Ido | but not when set to NV17 video texture :\ | 06:58 |
Kyro_ | pygmymath, the only difference I can see in those is black or white, 4gb sd card included or not | 06:59 |
Finnish | I have a laptop. Acer Aspire 3103WMLi, with ATIn Radeon Xpress 1100 | 06:59 |
tanner | bazhang: my 4965 is a 11n capable card, and the intel firmware supports 11n, yet i cannot tune to 11n, any idea? | 06:59 |
Kyro_ | no 9" screen option | 06:59 |
Finnish | Can I install Ubuntu Gutsy 7.10 on it? | 06:59 |
bazhang | tanner: what about your router? | 06:59 |
Daisuke_Ido | tanner, probably because the driver doesn't do 11n yet. | 06:59 |
pygmymath | Kyro_: 9" is later this year. go black.. ive got the white and its nice.. but black'd be nicer | 06:59 |
Meneertje | black looks more durable | 06:59 |
Meneertje | bought a black ps3.. hehe | 07:00 |
pygmymath | Kyro_: got mine second hand from a friend (no delivery and ram on it's way (woo!) | 07:00 |
tanner | bazhang: router is 11n. | 07:00 |
Kyro_ | pygmymath, thanks for the heads up, hopefully they make an improved 7" because id rather the smaller screen actuall - to conserve power | 07:00 |
tanner | Daisuke_Ido: which driver do you speak of? iwl4965 supports 11n | 07:00 |
Adys | is there a way to reboot xkb (or maybe x) from terminal? | 07:00 |
Daisuke_Ido | tanner, doesn't on my laptop | 07:00 |
Meneertje | in HK (where I live) these things sell like hotcakes. | 07:00 |
* Daisuke_Ido shrugs | 07:00 | |
MrKeuner | Why wouldn't I be able to access/mount my ftp server using nautlius's connect to server feature? | 07:01 |
Kyro_ | Meneertje, HK always loves those kinds of things, id love to visit HK | 07:01 |
pygmymath | Kyro_: theres some awesome sites out there, including an install script that'll set gnome up sweetly | 07:01 |
Meneertje | those ppl love these gadgets | 07:01 |
Meneertje | but i am not chinese, i am dutch.. but live in hk | 07:01 |
Kyro_ | pygmymath, The Ubuntu folks should consider a EEEbuntu version ^_^ | 07:01 |
pygmymath | ubuntu-eee.tuxfamily.org | 07:02 |
pygmymath | Kyro_: eeeXubuntu is already out :P | 07:02 |
MrKeuner | I can access my server with other clients, and I can access to some other servers using nautilus but not to some servers. What may be the difference between them. | 07:02 |
Kyro_ | LOL really !! LOL | 07:02 |
pygmymath | Kyro_: but you can install ubuntu standard style and then mod it quite nicely - it's what i've got atm :P | 07:02 |
Meneertje | in hk there are really nice pc shopping malls... you know a few floors with lots and lots of pc suppliers and related stuff. | 07:02 |
tanner | Daisuke_Ido: it is in >2.6.24 wireless-experimental (linuxwireless.org) has the driver which supports it. also compat-wireless supports it | 07:02 |
Daisuke_Ido | ah ha | 07:03 |
Daisuke_Ido | so we just don't have it yet? | 07:03 |
tanner | Daisuke_Ido: ubuntu is a bit slow to catch up, likely wont be available in 8.10 either | 07:03 |
Kyro_ | Meneertje, thatd be so fun ^_^ pygmymath, how do you install ubuntu - theres no disc drive is there? | 07:03 |
Daisuke_Ido | i would expect it by 8.10 surely | 07:03 |
Meneertje | external drive | 07:04 |
tanner | Daisuke_Ido: unfortunately documentation on getting it to work is non-existent | 07:04 |
Daisuke_Ido | it's *already* in 2.6.24, that's hardy's kernel | 07:04 |
pygmymath | Kyro_: usb cdrom, ootable usb or netboot - take yer pick ;) | 07:04 |
Kyro_ | nice | 07:04 |
tanner | Daisuke_Ido: according to the channel topic in #ipw2100, LED and .n support is disabled | 07:05 |
tanner | (in 2.6.24) | 07:05 |
Daisuke_Ido | pity | 07:05 |
pygmymath | Kyro_: if you're going with ubuntu either get the sd card or go with a minimal install of ubuntu though.. 3 gig is alot for an os when you only have 4 heh | 07:05 |
Meneertje | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EeePC | 07:05 |
Kyro_ | pygmymath, very true | 07:05 |
Kyro_ | Meneertje, thanks :) | 07:05 |
tanner | its a shame | 07:06 |
bazhang | www.eeeuser.com has a wiki as well for getting a full ubuntu on there | 07:06 |
pygmymath | Kyro_: mind you 2gig sd cards are a quid off amazon :D | 07:06 |
pygmymath | bazhang: good site | 07:06 |
Kyro_ | pygmymath, how many usb ports does the eee have? | 07:07 |
tanner | hard to stream HD tv over 11g with WPA2 and multiple devices :( | 07:07 |
Joetheodd | Happy St. Patrics day, all. Sorry for OT, but hey, hi. :P | 07:07 |
Javid | like 2-3 | 07:07 |
Kyro_ | I have a 4gb usb dongle - I can use that to install ubuntu | 07:07 |
Kyro_ | thats 12gb right there Javid | 07:07 |
Kyro_ | just get 3 x 4 GB dongles | 07:07 |
Javid | raided thumbdrives | 07:08 |
Javid | I like it | 07:08 |
pygmymath | Kyro_: 3x | 07:08 |
pygmymath | Kyro_: how many drives do you want sticking out the side really? :P | 07:08 |
Meneertje | personally i don't really like the eeepc... but its good though that its so popular. | 07:08 |
pygmymath | Meneertje: it takes some getting used to. but its one damn sweet piece of hardware. | 07:09 |
Kyro_ | pygmymath, I was just thinking that lol | 07:09 |
Kyro_ | the eee pc is the non pov version of the olpc | 07:10 |
Kyro_ | :p | 07:10 |
pygmymath | Kyro_: small keyboard took me about a day.. one key still gets me but im fine if i concentrate a little | 07:10 |
pygmymath | Kyro_: love having an overclock button though :D | 07:10 |
=== [NNUser] is now known as ike_x | ||
Kyro_ | pygmymath, heheheheh reminds me of back in the day on my old 486 - it had an overclock button too | 07:10 |
Meneertje | maybe because i unconsiously compare it with my regular (lenovo) laptop.. that looks like a soviet tank. (which I like, indestructible haha). The eeepc is like a lady while mine laptop is like a wrestler.. haha. | 07:11 |
pygmymath | turbo! | 07:11 |
Javid | lenovos are awesome | 07:11 |
Kyro_ | turbo thats the one | 07:11 |
pygmymath | Meneertje: its tougher than you think quite well built - feels sturdy.. no tank though :P | 07:11 |
Javid | I want to find a USB hub with all the ports on the same side, plug a bunch of cheap flashdrives into them, then ducttape them together and raid them | 07:11 |
Kyro_ | lolz Meneertje nice comparison | 07:11 |
Javid | ghetto external hd | 07:11 |
pygmymath | hate acers when the screen bends n shit | 07:11 |
pygmymath | pardon my french | 07:11 |
pygmymath | lol javid | 07:12 |
=== Azer_ is now known as Azer | ||
pygmymath | how do i shot dead flash memory | 07:12 |
Javid | I wonder if they CAN be raided.. | 07:12 |
Kyro_ | Javid, you can get some very fast Corsair flash drives | 07:12 |
Javid | I mostly want capacity | 07:12 |
Javid | obviously, a real external drive would be cheaper and better, but this line of thought amuses me | 07:12 |
Kyro_ | Javid, you can get them up to 8GB I think ,maybe even 16GB let me check | 07:12 |
fr500 | Javid: you can get any drive and get LVM | 07:12 |
jussi01 | !ot | 07:13 |
ubotu | #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! | 07:13 |

Kyro_ | $253.00 | 07:13 |
Kyro_ | there u go Javid ^_^ | 07:13 |
Javid | for that I could get a 500gb+ external drive though | 07:13 |
Kyro_ | not for the size and power consumption tho | 07:13 |
pygmymath | go get an ironkey :P | 07:13 |
Corbin | 500 GB is like $100 now | 07:13 |
pygmymath | seriously | 07:13 |
fr500 | please move this chat to ubuntu-offtopic | 07:13 |
bazhang | best take this to offtopic or #eeepc folks | 07:13 |
pygmymath | 2gb sd card - £2 | 07:14 |
Javid | Anyway. I'm going to replace my current internal drive with a bigger one. I don't want to reinstall, so would I theoretically be safe to just copy the drive image from this one then boot from the new one? | 07:14 |
pygmymath | £1* | 07:14 |
Javid | oh god, an offtopic chat, let's shit ourselves in rage | 07:14 |
LiquidIKon | hehe | 07:14 |
fr500 | Javid: this is a support channel | 07:14 |
Javid | I asked a support question. See? | 07:14 |
Meneertje | yep.. i bought the lenovo 3000 c200, looks simple, but its strong.. seriously strong hences and such. (its quite affordable too) Typical IBM type of keyboard minus that red stick thingy. Came with windows, got rid of it within 5 minutes, installed feisty on it.. (is still feisty right now, because its runny nicely, don't want to ruin that)... had some issues with sound and wireless at first, but fixed that. Now all is working perfectly. Fun | 07:14 |
jussi01 | Javid: great, please limit your discussion to that | 07:15 |
pygmymath | fr500: im waiting for questions :) | 07:15 |
Javid | I'm waiting for an answer | 07:15 |
pygmymath | and it is about ubbuntu on an eee | 07:15 |
Javid | ^^ | 07:15 |
pygmymath | and also raiding flashes in ubuntu .. hmm | 07:15 |
Kyro_ | im trying to figure out how to install ubuntu from usb flash drives lol | 07:16 |
jussi01 | Javid: please repeat your question, the offtopic chat took it away from my scroll back | 07:16 |
Kyro_ | from that guide I was linked earlier :) | 07:16 |
jussi01 | !install | Kyro_ | 07:16 |
ubotu | Kyro_: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install?

Javid | jussi01, Anyway. I'm going to replace my current internal drive with a bigger one. I don't want to reinstall, so would I theoretically be safe to just copy the drive image from this one then boot from the new one? | 07:16 |
jussi01 | Javid: correct | 07:16 |
Javid | sweet. | 07:16 |
pygmymath | Javid: sounds ok in theory | 07:16 |
jussi01 | Javid: you may run into some small grub issues though | 07:17 |
pygmymath | Javid: what jussi01 just said | 07:17 |
Javid | I can deal with that | 07:17 |
Meneertje | kyro.. usb stick is fine too? | 07:17 |
Javid | My packrat powers have outgrown a mere 60 gigs | 07:17 |
Javid | thanks | 07:17 |
jussi01 | Javid: just dd it across :) | 07:17 |
pygmymath | Javid: my desktop is 80, worktop is 30 and playtop is 8... | 07:17 |

pygmymath | shutdown is different | 07:33 |
fr500 | cristian: you should explain your problem to get support... | 07:33 |
cristian | i do not have signal | 07:33 |
Meneertje | is there any setting that you can get rid off the icons in the drop down menus? | 07:33 |
Kyro_ | explain your problem in 1 paragraph not 50 please :) | 07:33 |
pygmymath | Meneertje: in appearance settings i think | 07:34 |
cristian | i must use analog signal | 07:34 |

chris062689 | Does anyone here use an EeePC and Hardy? | 07:35 |
pygmymath | chris062689: gutsy | 07:35 |
Kyro_ | chris062689, a few peopel i think | 07:35 |
zmatt | Meneertje: System -> Preferences -> Appearance -> Interface | 07:35 |
chris062689 | I just wanted to see if everything was working out-of-box in hardy. | 07:35 |
chris062689 | I hear everythingh is, except wireless. | 07:35 |
chris062689 | I'm still trying to decide between Gutsy + scriptpacks or Hardy + wireless fix. | 07:36 |
pygmymath | chris062689: theres a driver for that. ubuntu-eee.tuxfamily.org | 07:36 |
pygmymath | chris062689: script-packs were a painless one off for me | 07:36 |
chris062689 | But does that work on Hardy? | 07:36 |
pygmymath | chris062689: notaclue | 07:36 |
chris062689 | Right, but I don't think there compatable with Hardy. | 07:36 |
pygmymath | gutsy is fien :) | 07:37 |
cristian | look a bit here | 07:37 |
cristian | http://forum.ubuntu.ro/viewtopic.php?id=3501 | 07:37 |

Javid | :[ | 07:39 |
Meneertje | zmatt? | 07:39 |
Kyro_ | chris062689, sorry but there may not be a solution to give | 07:39 |

TomBond | hello I have a problem with installing ubuntu 7.10 | 07:39 |
scone | By empty space I mean unpartitioned space | 07:39 |
Sindacious | Could anyone tell me how to get "Active Python" installed on my computer? | 07:39 |
cameron | when i do apt-get install mplayer, there are a list of suggested packages that i'd like apt to install as well.. is there a command to get the suggested packages? | 07:40 |
ZehRique | Thanks! | 07:40 |
chris062689 | TomBond: whats wrong? | 07:40 |
Javid | cameron, just copy the list and apt-get install it | 07:40 |
chris062689 | Kyro_:I'll probably just use Gutsy then. | 07:40 |
Javid | you can add multiple package names in the command like that | 07:41 |
TomBond | whe i start the install form the livecd it says loadin linux kerrnal, goes to 100% and then freezs | 07:41 |
chris062689 | TomBond: What Ubuntu version are you using? | 07:41 |
TomBond | 7.10 | 07:41 |
Kyro_ | chris062689, check back later on :) thats what id do | 07:41 |
cameron | Javid: ah, so simple :P | 07:41 |
Javid | :) | 07:41 |
chris062689 | TomBond: Try out Hardy, that may fix the problem your having. | 07:41 |
TomBond | ok | 07:41 |
TomBond | which version is that again | 07:41 |
chris062689 | TomBond: http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/hardy/alpha6 | 07:41 |
TomBond | ok thanks a bunch | 07:42 |
pygmymath | ]/leave uni time | 07:42 |
chris062689 | TomBond: it's the newer version, 8.04 | 07:42 |
chris062689 | TomBond: Warning, still testing software, shouldn't use production machines, bla bla bla | 07:42 |
chris062689 | TomBond: Thouh I do hear the new filesystem may sometimes be unstable, so play it safe. | 07:42 |
TomBond | ok | 07:42 |
chris062689 | TomBond: Remember to back up anything you need before installing. | 07:42 |
Kyro_ | chris062689, agreed | 07:42 |
TomBond | ill give it a shot | 07:42 |
chris062689 | Helping people is fun! :D | 07:43 |

cristian | :(( | 07:44 |
ArthurArchnix | I'm trying to debug why it takes so long for my computer to wake up... based on the log messages the longest gaps (6seconds and 8 seconds) have to do with trying to bring up eth0 (lan) then after it bring up (eth1) wireless it says, ok eth1 has the connection, I'll switch now. Does anyone know how to wake the computer first, then try to bring up the networks, and change the default network to eth1? I think this would improve | 07:44 |
scone | I need help trying to add space to my ntfs partition via gnome partition manager | 07:45 |

Ziroda1 | ArthurArchnix: is this wake up from suspend to ram, hibernate or shutdown? | 07:45 |
imut2 | ;jlkjljljklj | 07:45 |
ArthurArchnix | Ziroda1: Suspend to RAM. No changes made from a defaut Gutsy install yet. | 07:46 |
ArthurArchnix | I was reading the Debian wiki and it says to use swsusp and pm-utils, but Ubuntu doesn't seem to have gone in that direction. I think it's still using acpi and config files under acpi/events.d or soem such. | 07:47 |
Ziroda1 | ArthurArchnix: ah then can't help you on that sorry | 07:47 |
scone | What does the option "round to cylinders" mean? | 07:47 |
ArthurArchnix | no problems. Thanks anyway Ziroda1 | 07:48 |
bod_ | hey guys, can i link a file to show its contents on the desktop the same way that home/usr/Desktop does? | 07:49 |
scone | Can anyone help me with a partitioning question? | 07:50 |
bod_ | !ask | scone | 07:51 |
ubotu | scone: 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. :-) | 07:51 |
Sauvin | Maybe. | 07:51 |
magick | hey guys. I thought you might get a kick out of this. Hit up google and search for "ubuntu logo" take a look at the 3rd pic at the top :) | 07:51 |
bullgard4 | How can I determine the version number of my graphics driver 'intel' in /etc/X11/xorg.conf? | 07:51 |
MrKeuner | can I see nautilus messages in verbose | 07:51 |
scone | xD nice response | 07:51 |
chris062689 | I don't think that's very work safe magik :P | 07:51 |
chris062689 | (I already know what it is) | 07:51 |
chris062689 | If it's what I'm thinking of. | 07:51 |
Kyro_ | back | 07:51 |
magick | I wanted to look for an ubuntu logo for the top of my cube and i got that :P | 07:51 |

Sauvin | scone, do you know what a cylinder is? | 07:52 |
scone | not exactly | 07:52 |
scone | Sauvin so basically no haha | 07:52 |
Harveysgw1 | Hi everyone. I'm going to buy a dell computer, is it better to buy it with ubuntu or windows and then get rid of windows and install ubuntu. The second option would work out cheaper, but would the computer be set up best for the ubuntu installation ? | 07:52 |
Sauvin | scone, you know that a disk is divided up into tracks and sectors, yes? Tracks are concentric paths along which data are written? | 07:52 |
scone | Sauvin yeah | 07:53 |
Sauvin | Mmkay, a hard drive may consist of one or more platters, each of which may (or may not) be double-sided. A cylinder is a set of tracks, all of which are the same distance from the spindle. | 07:54 |
lesshaste | pidgin causes sh: jackd: not found to occur a lot.. how do I fix that? | 07:55 |
bazhang | Harveysgw1: what wireless card does it have? or is this a desktop | 07:55 |
Harveysgw1 | its a desktop | 07:56 |
scone | I think I understand. | 07:56 |
Harveysgw1 | its just a 530 desktop | 07:56 |
bazhang | Harveysgw1: what about the video card? do you know that by chance? nvidia/ati/intel and what number | 07:56 |
=== xero is now known as tanner | ||
Harveysgw1 | nvidia | 07:56 |
Harveysgw1 | i dont know, i think i can choose | 07:57 |
=== chaky_ is now known as chaky | ||
smallfry | can anyone tell me how to get windows messenger onto my ubuntu pc | 07:57 |
bazhang | Harveysgw1: just a sec let me check something | 07:57 |
Harveysgw1 | thankyou | 07:57 |
scone | Sauvin, if say we look at the track on the outer edge. A cylinder would be the outer track on every platter. Right? | 07:57 |
Sauvin | scone, yes. | 07:58 |
bod_ | hey guys, because of windows improper shutdowns, sometimes ubuntu has trouble mounting my ntfs drive, i have to manually mount it with this command -- sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/hda1 /media/disk-1 -o force -- how can i make the drive automount with a force parameter? fstab or script run at login? | 07:58 |
=== blue-frog__ is now known as blue-frog | ||
scone | Sauvin, awesome. Good explaination thanks. So what does rounding the cylinders mean? | 07:59 |
Ziroda1 | smallfry: you cannot get windows messenger on Ubuntu, however you can talk to your MSN friends through MSN using the program called pidgin | 07:59 |
smallfry | pidgin or amsn | 07:59 |
bod_ | Ziroda1, does msn not run through wine? | 07:59 |
Ziroda1 | bod_: not the latest version | 07:59 |
Javid | smallfry, amsn works great | 08:00 |
bod_ | ok ty ;~) | 08:00 |
smallfry | i know its possible to get windows messenger | 08:00 |
Javid | better than the official client :p | 08:00 |
Kalamansi | hello how to copy the deb (updates) in ubuntu 7.10 desktop? i would like to copy the updates to my usb. thanks. | 08:00 |
bod_ | i second amsn | 08:00 |
Sauvin | Rounding to cylinder boundaries means starting partitions on even cylinder boundaries - in other words, starting a partition on track 0, sector 0, head 0 of a given cylinder. This makes for simplified seek operations. | 08:00 |
smallfry | but u cant play games like checkers in it | 08:00 |
scone | Thanks. | 08:00 |
bod_ | drafts!!!! | 08:00 |
Ziroda1 | Kalamansi: look at AptOnCd | 08:00 |
Kyro_ | bod_, maybe your drive has some data corruption - i would suggest buying and running SpinRite 6 over it | 08:01 |
Sauvin | Erm, forget "track 0" (I'm still used to thinking in 2d).. just 'sector 0, head 0', but you get what I was trying to say. | 08:01 |
Kyro_ | you can get it from grc.com | 08:01 |
chrome | hey guys, what channel should I go to if I want to learn more about gnome internals, particularly with a view to eventually contributing to fixes to ubuntu? | 08:01 |
Kyro_ | chrome I don't think there is a channel | 08:02 |
bod_ | Kyro_, i no what the problem is, when windows crashes and i have to 'power off' it is still linked to the hard drive, then ubuntu thinks something else is using my drive,.,. if windows is shut down properly there is no problem,. but it frequently crashes so i need the force mount | 08:02 |
no | hi I want to ask about configuring gnome | 08:02 |
bazhang | Harveysgw1: if you go for the nvidia card it should not be an issue; is this intel or amd cpu? 32bit or 64bit--not really important unless you want to watch flash as that can be a pain to setup with 64bit | 08:02 |
Kyro_ | bod_, ohhhh okay | 08:02 |
bod_ | ask away no | 08:02 |
Kalamansi | Ziroda1 : i want to copy it. whats the command again? gkpsudo? i want to be a root. coz when i use my user i cannot copy all the updates | 08:02 |
Harveysgw1 | it is 32 bit | 08:02 |
Starnestommy | Kalamansi: gksudo? | 08:02 |
scone | I'm looking at my partitions in the gnome partition manager and I have two unallocated spaces. I want to make them into one space so I can partition the whole thing. How would I do that? | 08:02 |
bod_ | Kalamansi, gksudo or sudo or su | 08:02 |
no | you know how OS X has that finder window that has 3 panes with progressive subfolders as you move right? | 08:03 |
johnmike | Hi, I was just wondering if I upgrade my operating system, will all my software be overridden? | 08:03 |
Harveysgw1 | and intel | 08:03 |

chrome | Kyro_: bugger :) | 08:03 |
=== artenius is now known as noble- | ||
no | I know enlightenment E17 has them also | 08:03 |
Ziroda1 | chrome: you can talk to gnome developers on #gnome on gimp.net You can talk to ubuntu developers on #ubuntu-dev . You learn how to participate at wiki.ubuntu.com | 08:03 |
no | how can I get them in Gnome? | 08:03 |
scone | bod_ that's what I'm using | 08:03 |
Harveysgw1 | would wifi work on it you think, or should i add a modem aswell? | 08:03 |
bod_ | scone, oh,.,. not sure how it works ,.,.;~) | 08:03 |

Kalamansi | Starnestommy bod_ : still i cannot copy the file.it needs a root. how to login as root in desktop ubuntu 7.10? | 08:04 |
no | oh | 08:04 |
Kalamansi | Starnestommy bod_ : still i cannot copy the file.it needs a root. how to login as root in desktop ubuntu 7.10? so that i could copy all the updates | 08:04 |
bod_ | !root | Kalamansi | 08:04 |
ubotu | Kalamansi: 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 | 08:04 |
chrome | Ziroda1: thanks | 08:04 |
no | so does anyone know how to make the folders display as they do in OSX and enlightenment e17? | 08:04 |
noble- | scone: had to copy a file from system32 windows though | 08:05 |
ArthurArchnix | wow... the manpage on networkmanager blows. It doesn't even say where to find the config files. | 08:05 |
Ziroda1 | chrome: No Problem | 08:05 |
ArthurArchnix | Anyone know where to find them? | 08:05 |
bod_ | Kalamansi, to become root in a terminal session type sudo -s | 08:05 |
Kyro2 | ubotu, LOL | 08:05 |
ubotu | Please don't use "LOL" and "OMG" and so forth on a regular basis. This is IRC, not IM, and using those lines on their own is not required, and it is rather annoying to the rest of the people in the channel; thanks. | 08:05 |
Kyro2 | what | 08:05 |
scone | noble- good deal | 08:05 |
gaurav__ | anybody please tell me any database modelling tool which can import postgressql dump to restore model | 08:05 |

bazhang | Harveysgw1: this is the 530n or the 530s; the ubuntuforums have mostly good things to say about them as do several tech sites--if the hardware is fairly standard (and it seems it is) then it should be no worries setting up--and of course you can come here if you have any issues ;] | 08:06 |
scone | noble- bah shame | 08:06 |

Harveysgw1 | thanks bazhang thats very helpful. Just wanted to hear it from here. Thank you once again. | 08:07 |
noble- | weird | 08:07 |
Harveysgw1 | bless you | 08:07 |
bazhang | haha no worries Harveysgw1 ;] | 08:07 |

noble- | yet it's showing another nick to all of you | 08:09 |

wantE17style | well, what's the name of the package that does that......maybe I can tinker with it to make it work in Gnome? | 08:16 |
googlah|sleepy | hello fellahs, just an easy question, i want to manually select VGA driver at setup (this case VESA), but don't seem i can? | 08:16 |
bazhang | wantE17style: it is the enlightenment window manager | 08:16 |
bod_ | googlah|sleepy, the text installer does that,.,. not sure how in gui installer | 08:17 |
wantE17style | can it be combined with gnome? :( I know the window manager isn't a complete desktop solution :( | 08:17 |
artenius | I have to submit to a urine test later today. apparently I live in nazi germany | 08:17 |
Kalamansi | bod_ : sudo nautilus. still error while copying.same error | 08:17 |
artenius | ot, sorry | 08:17 |
bazhang | wantE17style: you mean the gtk apps? sure no worries | 08:17 |
bod_ | Kalamansi, where is the file you want to copy? and what is the file path to your usb drive? | 08:17 |
elkbuntu | artenius, yes, very. | 08:17 |
googlah|sleepy | so yeah, the alternative cd, that is what i thought... not possible with the normal cd bod_. | 08:17 |
bazhang | !ot | 08:18 |
ubotu | #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! | 08:18 |
bod_ | googlah|sleepy, not sure,. but its definately a default thing in the text installer,.,. you might be able to choose VESA after the gui install by doing dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 08:18 |
wantE17style | ok thanks all | 08:18 |
Kalamansi | bod_ : i click file system, var, cache,apt,archives.. and my usb name is kalamansi | 08:19 |
VoiDeT | hi there, i'm getting "rndc connect failed: 127.0.0.1# 953 timed out" on reboot/shutdown how do i open up the local loop back for the port 953 in my iptables config? | 08:19 |
googlah|sleepy | yeah, of course. thing is, the gui installer chooses wrong driver, and the screen goes blank at start up. meaning i can't do anything. so i think i will have to try the alternative. bod_. | 08:19 |
bod_ | Kalamansi, try and give me the info in this syntax /var/cache/apt/archive/packagename /media/devicename | 08:20 |
Kalamansi | bod_ i am trying to copy all the packages | 08:20 |
bod_ | googlah|sleepy, after the gui install, reboot, et to grub, then choose the second line, the single user boot,. that will give u a command prompt then run dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg then choose your settings then reboot choose first line,.,.voila | 08:21 |
chriskk | where is Apache's proxy_balancer for ubuntu 6.10 ? | 08:21 |
bod_ | Kalamansi, everything in /var/cache/apt/archive ?? what is the path to ur usb disk? it will be something like /media/disk | 08:22 |

Kyro2 | not using terminal? | 08:23 |
bod_ | Kalamansi, no its not,.,. open your usb then right click--> properties on something in it,.,. it will show you the file path there | 08:23 |
Kyro2 | like a gui that comes with ubuntu | 08:24 |
bod_ | Kyro2, gparted? not sure | 08:24 |
Kyro2 | in windows you just right click it and format it in there - theres no option in gnome | 08:24 |
Kyro2 | :( | 08:24 |
bazhang | terminal is easier Kyro2 then burning an iso of a livecd rebooting into just for that | 08:24 |

bod_ | Kalamansi, sudo cp -rp /var/cache/apt/archive/* /media/KALAMANSI/ | 08:29 |

bod_ | Kalamansi, type that into a terminal | 08:29 |
Galga | bod_: no volume control or compatible GStreamer plugin found | 08:29 |

bod_ | Galga, type asoundconf list then tell me the output | 08:31 |
Galga | bod_: nothing | 08:31 |
bod_ | MeatPopsicle, try the alternate ubuntu cd | 08:31 |
SNuxoll | [[thufir]]: botcheck | 08:31 |
bod_ | Galga, nothing? then your computer isnt detecting a sound card,.,.,. im not sure how to fix that,.,. ask the channel | 08:31 |
Galga | bod_: k thanks | 08:32 |
MeatPopsicle | bod_: Don't beleive I have heard of it. ubuntu.com? | 08:32 |
bod_ | !alternate | 08:32 |
ubotu | 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 | 08:32 |
bod_ | MeatPopsicle, ^^^^ | 08:32 |
SNuxoll | [[thufir]] | 08:32 |
Galga | bod_: besides the icon when clicked asks for a GStreamer Plugin | 08:32 |
[[thufir]] | if I do "sudo su -" and login as root, can i change the root password safely, or will that muck up something else? should I leave the root password alone? seems odd to not know the root password. | 08:33 |
bazhang | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Search?go=Go&search=thufir: best not to log in as root | 08:33 |
[[thufir]] | SNuxoll: pardon, what did you say? | 08:33 |
bod_ | Galga, the speaker icon in the corner? because you have no sound card therfore no driver,. as far as the computer is concerned | 08:33 |
smallfry | who is running windows? | 08:33 |
[[thufir]] | bazhang: well, sometimes you need to be root. | 08:33 |

MeatPopsicle | Roger that. I'll d/l and give it a shot and get back to you if I'm still having trouble. Thanks! | 08:33 |
bod_ | [[thufir]], why do you need to login as root? | 08:33 |
Starnestommy | [[thufir]]: that's why sudo exists | 08:33 |
bod_ | MeatPopsicle, good luck ;~) | 08:34 |
bod_ | !root | [[thufir]] | 08:34 |
ubotu | [[thufir]]: 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 | 08:34 |

bod_ | Kalamansi, ok, so the path to where the files you want to copy is wrong,.,. find them through nautilus to get the path correct | 08:42 |
bod_ | olejorgenb, what do you use? | 08:42 |
olejorgenb | bod_: I thought that .xsession should be run on login if it existed | 08:42 |
olejorgenb | bod_: ion | 08:42 |

Kalamansi | bod_ its archives not archive hehehe | 08:42 |

Javid | thanks | 09:00 |
MeatPopsicle | Kalamansi: You may, though I doubt I can offer much help | 09:00 |
Kalamansi | MeatPopsicle : where is more secure? ubuntu server 7.10 or openbsd? | 09:00 |
jhend60 | hi all | 09:00 |
MeatPopsicle | Kalamansi: And correct I was, I haven't a clue... | 09:00 |
Javid | Kalamansi, I'd bet on openbsd | 09:01 |
jescis | Hello, do I have to have gnome installed for ubuntu to work? | 09:02 |
ArthurArchnix | Kalamansi: That's easy. Both have no open ports by default, so after a default install, they are the same. But since it's impossible to just use a default install, and some configuration is necessary, the answer is it depends on the system administrator. IF that happens to be you, then I would say the more secure system will be the one you can get the most help with. | 09:02 |
MeatPopsicle | Kalamansi: My initial feeling is to agree with Javid, but I have no specific reason for it aside from a couple of my more IT-centric friends use it | 09:02 |
pubo | Kalamansi, maybe openbsd, but it depend's of the administrator skills := | 09:02 |
pubo | :) | 09:02 |
Javid | of course, a user who's too dumb for his smarts can make anything insecure | 09:02 |

pubo | jescis, don't you know kubuntu? xubuntu? ubuntu-server? | 09:03 |
ArthurArchnix | Kalamansi: If the question is, if a super-awesome-talented system administrator configured both openbsd and ubuntuserver which would be more secure, I'd go with openbsd like everyone else. | 09:03 |

en4rab | is anyone here knowledgable about kernel params and the intel 845 chipset? | 09:59 |
smallfry | maybe | 09:59 |
en4rab | I cant boot the ubuntu graphical install, as it trys to load agpgart and intel_agp modules even though I have disabled the onboard graphics in bios, this causes a kernel oops | 10:00 |
en4rab | I managed to get ubuntu installed using the alt install, but i have to edit the modprobe blacklist before the fresh install will boot | 10:01 |
Yon | hey guys, the other day i plugged my ipod in while rhythmbox and tried to add music to my ipod, but once i took my ipod out it stoped working, its as if i have no music on my ipod and in windows i cant do anything but update | 10:01 |
en4rab | Yon i think the ipod firmware changed how it stores music and older ipod tools will wipe the misic databse | 10:01 |
en4rab | but dont quote me on that | 10:02 |
googlah|sleepy | Yon: this is why you have "safely remove USB hardware" in windows, don't know how to apply it in Ubuntu though. Had my MP3-player corrupted this way once. | 10:02 |
en4rab | something to do with needing a key from your ipod was the fix i think | 10:02 |
smallfry | yon: some times it more time to add the music than what the computer tells you and remember to unmount the ipod before unplugging it | 10:03 |
ArthurArchnix | en4rab: so what's the question | 10:03 |
Yon | ok, so rhythmbox shouldnt break my ipod? | 10:03 |
aurax | has anyone tried running a binary made by installjammer on ubuntu 7.10-server ? | 10:03 |
smallfry | yon: no way mans | 10:04 |
aurax | i run the binary file in shell and nothing happens. | 10:04 |
googlah|sleepy | Yon: not really | 10:04 |
Yon | the thing is if i plug it in now, rhythmbox sees the ipod normally and all the music thats on it | 10:04 |
en4rab | Is there a proper way to disable loading the intel video modules from the boot prompt? or do i have to use alt install then edit the blacklist if i want to reinstall | 10:04 |
dakkyLAP | hello can anyone help me | 10:05 |
en4rab | Yon the ipod uses a database of music for its track listing, it doesnt scan the filesystem | 10:05 |
nordland-iv | do we cant sorry, you're going to have to go somewhere else | 10:05 |
googlah|sleepy | dakkyLAP: describe your problem instead. | 10:05 |
nordland-iv | *no | 10:05 |
aurax | anyone ? | 10:05 |
dakkyLAP | i just installed ubuntu desktop 7.10 to a hdd and now it ask me for a username when it booted off the hdd | 10:05 |
smallfry | yon: dont use rymthmbox to load music, either use the terminal and copy paste it or dont use the terminal | 10:05 |
dakkyLAP | what username and password to enter? | 10:06 |
nordland-iv | no duh it asks for a username | 10:06 |
Yon | but with an ipod i cant copy paste | 10:06 |
nordland-iv | the ones YOU entered before? | 10:06 |
dakkyLAP | i've entered a password before, not a username ? | 10:06 |
dakkyLAP | it was booted off the cd | 10:06 |
googlah|sleepy | dakkyLAP: Didn't you set a username and password during the install? | 10:06 |
nordland-iv | hah wtf | 10:07 |
dakkyLAP | lol | 10:07 |
dakkyLAP | i thought i entered organisation | 10:07 |
dakkyLAP | not username | 10:07 |
Yon | smallfry, in windows i have to use itunes, if i copy paste it doesnt play the music, it stores it like an external hdd stores data | 10:07 |
smallfry | yon: you should be able to. go to the settings on the ipod. there should be usb modes, one used as a thumb drive and the other for a mp3 player | 10:08 |
nordland-iv | dude, there are two different "username" like things you enter | 10:08 |
dakkyLAP | thanks anyway | 10:08 |
ArthurArchnix | en4rab: I can't think of a better way than the way you've done it. Alt, then blacklist. Do you think it's possible to force a video driver at boot though? | 10:08 |
nordland-iv | one is how you show up on LAN and one is your username... | 10:08 |
nordland-iv | if you cant remember those things well you'll have to re-install I'm afraid ubuntu doesn't have a password recovery for those kinda stupid mistakes... | 10:08 |
nordland-iv | or maybe they do..hm | 10:08 |
ArthurArchnix | dakkyLAP: Did you set up a username when you installed? | 10:09 |
alromaithi | linux is cool and flexible however you need to do things in terminal , and if not then get some scripts which are available on the net . and i hope the new ubuntu will have those scripts configured in by default that will persua more people into linux | 10:09 |
en4rab | ArthurArchnix: im not sure i saw reference to a brokenmodules= kernel param that seems to no longer exist | 10:09 |
smallfry | you have to set up a username when u instal it doesent give u a choice | 10:09 |
Yon | smallfry, im looking but i cant find any kind of usb settings on my ipod | 10:09 |
aurax | has anyone tried running a binary made by installjammer on ubuntu 7.10-server ? | 10:09 |
aurax | i run the binary file in shell and nothing happens. | 10:10 |
en4rab | and there is aparently an i810= param that isnt documented apart from its existence | 10:10 |
ArthurArchnix | en4rab: take a look here.. maybe there is something? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions | 10:10 |
MeatPopsicle | alromaithi: I'll agree with you there, I've been using the tux on and off for a couple of years now, but even as a pc geek, and licenced tech, I fint myseld getting impatient with having to repeat the same long console commands | 10:11 |
smallfry | yon: the other thing is get a program called wine. wine makes it so u can install windows programs on linux | 10:11 |
ArthurArchnix | en4rab: Maybe disable the framebuffer? | 10:11 |
ArthurArchnix | en4rab: Or set the vesa mode? | 10:11 |
Yon | smallfry, u saying i should install itunes on wine? | 10:11 |
smallfry | yon: maybe that may be ur only choice left | 10:12 |
nagy1 | hello! could someone help me to compile HTK? probably it misses the X headers, but I am not sure. | 10:12 |
|2-bits| | iTunes doesn't work too well on wine | 10:12 |
|2-bits| | in my experience | 10:12 |
smallfry | ya | 10:12 |
en4rab | ArthurArchnix: I thought about both of those things, which might work for a headless install, but i wanted to have the PCI nvidia working, I got it going in the end but it wasnt an elegant install | 10:12 |
Yon | i hate itunes so much :s | 10:13 |
ArthurArchnix | sounds like you're two and three steps ahead en4rab | 10:13 |
Yon | the only way to fix my hdd is by updateing my firmware right? | 10:13 |
jim_p | hi | 10:13 |
Rybaxs | hello | 10:13 |
smallfry | yon: if all else fails get a new mp3 player | 10:13 |
en4rab | Ideally id have liked to disable agpgart and intel_agp from the boot prompt so the normal install dick would boot | 10:14 |

ArthurArchnix | alromaithi: This isn' t the best place for that. Type /join #ubuntu-offtopic to discuss it | 10:15 |
smallfry | yon is having problems with it 2-bits. | 10:15 |
en4rab | I think this is probably a bug in the intel 810 graphics drivers in that they dont recognise the case where onboard graphics have been disabled in bios so they still try to init the now disabled card | 10:15 |
Yon | |2-bits|, can i update my firmware from rhythmbox? | 10:15 |
alromaithi | ArthurArchnix: no more discussions about it , im lazy for that aswel | 10:16 |

kLe | hello to everyone.. :) | 10:16 |
kLe | I' trying to voice-chat through gtalk.. | 10:17 |
kLe | any idea? | 10:17 |
en4rab | Yon: Im sure i read a while ago that apple changed the ipod firmware so the music database needed a key from the Ipod or the ipod wouldnt read the updated database, so copying music to the ipod would result in your situation, ie the music is there but the ipod doesnt see it | 10:17 |
imyousuf | I am facing a strange problem is linux :(. I have created a group master. Then I did adduser user master.

preor | Can anyone help me with my soundcard, Audigy platinum. I installed asla mixer tools increased all volumes yet no sounds :S | 10:20 |
Kyro2 | bullgard4, I doubt it | 10:20 |
Yon | en4rab, Yeah ok i understand that but i put music on from itunes and it was working, then i pluged it into linux and i saw that rhythmbox can read my ipod so i tried adding a few albums through rhythmbox and after i ejected from rhythmbox i took my ipod out and it acted as if i have no music at all | 10:20 |
kLe | @bullgard.. i don't think so... | 10:21 |
blue-frog | imyousuf: have you logged out since you have added your user to the master group? | 10:21 |

bullgard4 | Kyro2: And what should I do if my monitor reports wrong measures to the operating system? | 10:21 |
ArthurArchnix | imyousuf: replace new-dir of course | 10:21 |
en4rab | Yon when you tried tto add music to the ipod under linux it probably tried to update the database and broke the sha1 hash of the database | 10:22 |
en4rab | there is a fix for this im sure | 10:22 |
kLe | may skype burn in hell.. LOL.. ;) | 10:22 |
en4rab | i think i read how to extrack your ipods keys so you can resign the database | 10:22 |

imyousuf | the #git helped me with it :) | 10:24 |
Yon | en4rab, ok how do i do this? | 10:24 |
ArthurArchnix | sybariten: compare which groups you're a part of and which you friend is a part of. | 10:24 |
kLe | uh.. this channel is reaaaally busy!! :| | 10:24 |

simion314 | hi, please tell me what is the command to delete a file from a shell, and how t delete all files from the curent directory | 10:33 |
Yon | en4rab, thanks :) | 10:33 |
en4rab | first of all id check to see if gtkpod has sorted this | 10:34 |

simion314 | hi, please tell me what is the command to delete a file from a shell, and how t delete all files from the curent directory | 10:35 |
jpatrick | simion314: rm filename and rm * to delete all files, but _be careful_ | 10:35 |
jussi01 | simion314: rm filename will remove a file | 10:35 |
simion314 | thx to all | 10:36 |
jussi01 | simion314: very carful | 10:36 |
hughhalf | simion314: But as jpatrick points out, exercise care, particularly if you're doing this as root! | 10:36 |
en4rab | Yon that info is from september last year, id be surprised if gtkpod hasnt added hashing the database to its code | 10:37 |
simion314 | rm will not delete folders? | 10:37 |
jpatrick | simion314: rm -r for folders | 10:37 |
Radit | simion rm -rf | 10:37 |
jpatrick | simion314: or just rmdir folderName | 10:37 |
simion314 | thx | 10:37 |
jussi01 | simion314: again, be careful ;) | 10:39 |
simion314 | yes i am not root | 10:39 |
simion314 | i just delete some configuration files | 10:39 |
en4rab | Yon: are you still there? you might have a bit more luck ot the #gtkpod channel, ask to see if they have sorted the database hash problem | 10:42 |
kLe | hey.. I'm trying to (voice) talk with my friends throught GTalk.. any idea? | 10:42 |
Yon | en4rab, ok thanks ill try | 10:44 |
Yon | en4rab, so i think if i use gtkpod to put music on my ipod i wont get this problem? | 10:45 |
en4rab | if gtkpod has updated their software to has the databse properly | 10:46 |
en4rab | hash even | 10:46 |
en4rab | if the ipod detects an invalid hash it will report no songs on the ipod | 10:46 |
en4rab | im looking to see if gtkpod have fixed this | 10:46 |
en4rab | Yon: Im fairly sure the latest gtkpod / libgpod should fix this problem | 10:48 |
odd | anyone know of any good mmorpgs for linux? | 10:48 |
aurax | has anyone tried running a binary made by installjammer on ubuntu 7.10-server ? | 10:48 |

en4rab | SNuxoll: you wont see the problem with invalid itunesDB if you use uptodate tools to copy music to it as the sha1 was reversed in september last year a week or so after the problem came to light | 10:56 |
Yon | en4rab, ok iv installed gtkpod, u think it will be able to fix my problem? | 10:56 |
en4rab | Yon it should do, if you want to be sure check on #gtkpod on freenode | 10:56 |
en4rab | they will know better | 10:57 |
Yon | hehe its worth a try :P | 10:57 |
SNuxoll | en4rab: to be honest though, I don't really use Ubuntu to sync my iPod anymore, I just boot XP and use iTunes, less hassle | 10:57 |
en4rab | but the libgpod library changelog certaily indicates they added support to rehash the database | 10:57 |

ArthurArchnix | !hardy | geo | 11:12 |
ubotu | geo: Hardy Heron is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (8.04-LTS), due April 2008 - For more info, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardyHeron - CONSIDER IT TO BE PRE BETA (ALPHA) SOFTWARE - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1, NOT #ubuntu | 11:12 |

simion314 | geo125: my advice is not to use 8.04 if you do not must to use it | 11:12 |
ArthurArchnix | hr|Starbucks: what do you mean, check you files at startup? | 11:12 |
Myrtti | kLe: tried telepathy? | 11:12 |
geo125 | yes i know that | 11:12 |
hr|Starbucks | there is that . "Checking file systems..." | 11:13 |
geo125 | why not to use it ? it isnt good? | 11:13 |
simion314 | geo125: not all packages from 7.10 are availlable in 8.04 | 11:13 |
Myrtti | geo125: because it isn't stable and released yet | 11:13 |
ArthurArchnix | geo125: No, it is not good. It is alpha. | 11:13 |
simion314 | geo125 and you will want an app that there is not packaged yet | 11:13 |
geo125 | ok thank u | 11:14 |
TroubleHelix | kLe, I don't think there is a real great solution out there at the moment. Ekiga? I use Asterisk, but that requires you to set up an Asterisk server - it's a little overkill possibly. | 11:14 |
kLe | @Myrtti: I tried to.. but I didn't achieve the result.. but I've only installed some stuff from the rep.. and from what I've read telepathy is only a framework, I'd need an app like ereseva to use it. but.. I can't find it! | 11:14 |
simion314 | geo125: i tried it, but the missing packages made me to use 7.10 | 11:14 |
hr|Starbucks | (ArthurArchnix): there is that . "Checking file systems..." | 11:14 |
ArthurArchnix | hr|Starbucks: Well, it could take a very long time. Depends on size of hard-drive. But it should only happen after every 30 mounts if you're using ext3 | 11:15 |
kLe | @TH: yeh.. it seems that there's no plenty of solution.. the problem is that I would have to tell all my contact to move platform.. that's not a good news.. :( | 11:15 |
fresd | hi, is there any way to know when I installed a program using aptitude or apt-get ? | 11:15 |
simion314 | geo125 if you have the space try to make a clean install and keep the present ubuntu, when 8.04 will be stable then you can use it, or you will use it anyway if you have all that you will need in the 8.04 | 11:15 |

geo125 | ok thank u very much for the advise | 11:16 |
interceptor | #ubuntu-ru | 11:17 |
ArthurArchnix | It would take my system about 2 minutes then, after 30 mounts. hr|Starbucks of course, you can change that parameter to check less frequently. But you know... you should probably stick with defaults. | 11:17 |
SaddamBea | but i just cant make the partitions on the c: for ubuntu in the manual mode, and in auto mode, he selects the entire drive, wich i don't want | 11:17 |
simion314 | SaddamBea: delete the c: partition, then create 2 new partitions for swap and file system | 11:18 |
spike_ | hi all | 11:19 |
kLe | ok, no solution.. I'll try to open a thread on the forum.. thanks for your help.. | 11:19 |
TroubleHelix | SaddamBea, and at the same time you should be able to mount your D: drive as an ntfs or fat partition under /dos or /windows or similar. | 11:19 |
SaddamBea | simion314 gotta do this in "manual" mode? | 11:20 |
spike_ | i've a question a bount system to disk and system to ram feature | 11:20 |
hr|Starbucks | (ArthurArchnix): yope ^^ do i have to put in the live cd and change the settings there` | 11:20 |
simion314 | SaddamBea yes, | 11:20 |

ArthurArchnix | hr|Starbucks: One way is to check out man fstab you'll learn how to turn off fstab for certain disks. | 11:23 |
hr|Starbucks | (ArthurArchnix): ok ^^ but i could use "sudo touch /fastboot" in the live cd and then .. i couild start up ubuntu without checking .. and then i could change the settings | 11:24 |

Blou_Aap | I might be bit noob with ubuntu, but not sound | 11:29 |
TroubleHelix | Blou_Aap, what audio software are you using? ALSA? | 11:29 |
Blou_Aap | ALSA\ | 11:29 |
Blou_Aap | yes | 11:29 |
TroubleHelix | Blou_Aap, Maybe a frequency / sample rate mismatch... You might want to Google search your audio chipset and see if others have problems with it. | 11:30 |
hr|Starbucks | (ArthurArchnix): brb | 11:30 |
Blou_Aap | its onboard sound on my work pc | 11:31 |
sasuke | whit what software can i look up the hardware of my pc? | 11:31 |
ArthurArchnix | hr|Starbucks: in the amount of time you've spent trying to find away around this auto fsck you could have already completed the check. | 11:31 |
TroubleHelix | Blou_Aap, Word, I'm just saying - find out the chipset, and google that, there may be some info you can learn from other's detective work. I usually just use the commandline tool 'alsamixer' to identify my card if I know ALSA is installed properly. | 11:33 |

Solaris444 | evening. | 12:40 |
X-Java | is it possible to run ubuntu on xbox with xbox-linux kernel? | 12:41 |
Solaris444 | wookienz, may i suggest the software for your model hdd? | 12:41 |
Solaris444 | That will probably be available on a bootable floppy. | 12:41 |
wookienz | ok ta | 12:41 |
Solaris444 | do you know what brand it is? | 12:42 |
wookienz | yuppers. | 12:42 |
Solaris444 | awesome. | 12:42 |
Solaris444 | X-Java: no idea | 12:42 |
MohammadBoozary | How to Download Only the Headers for Large Messages in Evolution ????!!!! | 12:43 |
X-Java | Solaris444: I have tested xUbuntu live CD which should work on PC and xbox but afler loading it crashes on both, PC and XBOX | 12:44 |
ActionParsnip | MohammadBoozary, http://library.gnome.org/users/evolution/stable/b15fx7uz.html.en | 12:44 |
Solaris444 | Mohammad, is it the headers you want specifically or is it evolution you want it for? | 12:44 |
rogue | sorry... wrong channel... I am using ubuntu and it works great... just wish NFSV: Porsche Unleashed worked with wine because then I could drop M$-Win totally.... | 12:44 |
ader10 | Is there a way to make the progress bar for copying files only be at 100% when it's safe to unmount (ex: you copy a file from your hard drive to your usb flash drive and the copy dialog says complete, but the file isn't completely written) | 12:44 |
rogue | Have a happy St. Patricks Day EVERYONE!!!! | 12:44 |
Solaris444 | hmmm, might be a bad burn then X-Java. Did you check the MD5 of your iso and your burn? | 12:44 |
ActionParsnip | rogue, tried cedega? | 12:44 |
Jack_Sparrow | Solaris444, He only wants the headers for the messages.. | 12:44 |
X-Java | I have burned 3 times and it was same problem | 12:44 |
rogue | cdega for? | 12:45 |
ActionParsnip | rogue, also run wine setup.exe from your home drive (this will require you to use the full path to the setup.exe file) | 12:45 |
Jack_Sparrow | X-Java, DO you get to start or install screen and or desktop after that? | 12:45 |
ActionParsnip | rogue, games | 12:45 |
X-Java | only black screen | 12:45 |
typhox | how do i restart my computer from console? | 12:45 |
ActionParsnip | typhox, sudo shutdown -r now | 12:46 |
odd | wow i never knew about wine | 12:46 |
ActionParsnip | www.winhq.org | 12:46 |
typhox | ok, thx | 12:46 |
timfromtang | typhox type sudo shutdown -r now and enter your password when prompted to restart from console | 12:46 |
Jack_Sparrow | typhox, $ sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart I think... it is early | 12:46 |
ActionParsnip | Jack_Sparrow, using shutdown is way easier dude | 12:47 |
Solaris444 | Well MohammadBoozary, doesn't Thunderbird support header download only? | 12:47 |
ccharles` | gdm restart doesn't reboot the box, only restarts X. shutdown is the way to go. | 12:48 |
timfromtang | my video's wont display, sound works fine tosh tecra m1 correc`t codecs installed etc display card problem? card is a trident cyberblade XP4m32 | 12:48 |
Jack_Sparrow | ActionParsnip, His question was restart... so that was what I gave him.. typing reboot is fewer characters to type than shutdown.. if that is an issue | 12:49 |
X-Java | Solaris444: http://www.xbox-linux.org/wiki/XUbuntu | 12:49 |

Solaris444 | X-Java, did you check your MD5s? | 12:50 |
Solaris444 | are you sure you have a good burn | 12:50 |
X-Java | what do u mean? | 12:50 |
Solaris444 | Are you sure your download is not corrupted. | 12:50 |
Odd-rationale | tobi: Which file would I find that? | 12:50 |
Solaris444 | Or that your burn did not work. | 12:50 |
ActionParsnip | typhox, the most left hand value is the pid. use sudo kill <pid> | 12:50 |
Solaris444 | by the way everyone: | 12:50 |
Solaris444 | Let's say I have a file that is solaris:user rwxrw-rw- | 12:50 |
Jack_Sparrow | !enter | timfromtang, | 12:51 |

Solaris444 | and i copy it to a folder that is solaris:user drw------- | 12:51 |
ActionParsnip | timfromtang, you got win32codecs ? | 12:51 |
Solaris444 | I want the file I copied to automatically assume the permissions of the parent folder. | 12:51 |
timfromtang | ok will do from now on thanks | 12:51 |
rogue | ActionParsnip, I will look into it... So far the info I have been able to get from the net is that no one has been able to make it run... Maybe I am looking in the wrong places | 12:51 |
Jack_Sparrow | timfromtang, thanks | 12:51 |
rogue | thx for the lead | 12:52 |
timfromtang | yes i have the win32 codecs installed I think that it is probably a display adapter problem accelleration issue? | 12:52 |

xipi | does any of you have any experiences with geforce 6100? | 12:54 |
ActionParsnip | xipi, in what way? | 12:54 |
ActionParsnip | timfromtang, try running glxgears | 12:54 |
xipi | ActionParsnip: regarding compatibility issues | 12:55 |
X-Java | Jack_Sparrow: I can try it | 12:55 |
ActionParsnip | xipi, compatible wth what? | 12:55 |
Jack_Sparrow | xipi, 6000's should not be hard.. 6600 in this box | 12:55 |
melfardi | ? | 12:55 |
xipi | i am looking at buying a new pc | 12:55 |
melfardi | wtf ? | 12:55 |
xipi | and want to make sure, it will work well with ubuntu | 12:55 |
Jack_Sparrow | melfardi, PLease stop.. that is not acceptable | 12:56 |
Solaris444 | xipi, how are you going to get a 6100? | 12:56 |
Solaris444 | isn't that an IGP? | 12:56 |
ActionParsnip | xipi, yes, nvidia is great with ubuntu. get it in | 12:56 |
Solaris444 | ActionParsnip, not so fast. | 12:56 |
melfardi | sure | 12:56 |
Solaris444 | The 6100IGP might not be supported. | 12:56 |
erUSUL | xipi: 6100 is integrated on motherboard? if that's the case i woulg get a intel based mobo instead of nvidia | 12:56 |
xipi | Solaris444: it is on board an ECS | 12:56 |
Solaris444 | oh dude, don't you dare get an ecs mainboard. | 12:57 |
xipi | erUSUL: why? | 12:57 |
xipi | Solaris444: why not? | 12:57 |
Solaris444 | They are bottom bottom bottom of the barrel stuff. | 12:57 |
melfardi | Y a t'il des français ? | 12:57 |
Solaris444 | You can forget about that lasting more than 2 years. | 12:57 |
Jack_Sparrow | !fr | melfardi | 12:57 |
ubotu | melfardi: Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais. | 12:57 |
xipi | Solaris444: any better idea? | 12:58 |
Solaris444 | Intel, MSI, Gigabyte, ASUS. | 12:58 |
Solaris444 | Any of those brands should be fine. | 12:58 |
melfardi | thank jack sparrow & wtf | 12:58 |
Jack_Sparrow | xipi, I agree with Solaris444 | 12:58 |
xipi | Solaris444: ok | 12:58 |
xipi | i'll have a look | 12:58 |

Solaris444 | just watch out for anything with Realtek Gigabit LAN. Support for the 8168B is broken in kernels 2.6.21 to 2.6.23 | 12:59 |
Jack_Sparrow | X-Java, 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 "--" | 12:59 |
Jack_Sparrow | X-Java, Wait.. did you say livecd worked? | 12:59 |
xipi | Solaris444: but 10/100 Lan should be right, shouldn't it? | 13:00 |
Solaris444 | shure | 13:00 |
X-Java | Jack-Sparrow: life CD of debian and dsl worked but live CD of XUbuntu gets black screen after booting | 13:00 |

bod_ | has the hardy beta been released yet? | 13:04 |
rsk | bod_ no | 13:05 |

yowshi | anyone know if there have been any recent updates to wine .9.57? i had to downgrade and was kind of wondering when i can try upgrading that again | 13:05 |
yowshi | by recent i mean in the last 7 days | 13:05 |
X-Java | rsk: I mean burn apps on live cd so that they will be always on cd | 13:06 |
rsk | X-Java: um sure you have to master a new one then | 13:06 |
akan01n | hi, how can i reload xorg without restarting everything? i mean with the cmd 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg' it works but generates a backup file, i want to ignore this backup file, there is another cmd or a way to not generate this backup file? | 13:06 |
rsk | X-Java: afaik there are instructions on the gentoo wiki | 13:06 |
X-Java | rsk: can I do it on windows? | 13:06 |
ActionParsnip | akan01n, press ctrl+alt+backspace | 13:07 |
rsk | X-Java: probably, but it will be a mess | 13:07 |
Lamego | akan01n, the backup file has no influence on your new configuration | 13:07 |
yowshi | action i think he means when his xserver fucks up like mine does on occasion and i have to reset and then reinstall my drivers | 13:07 |
yowshi | stupid nvidia graphics card | 13:08 |
akan01n | Lamego: i know, but im trying to find a hack for my touchscreen, rotating the screen, so everytime i rotate im going to generate a backup, end of the year i'll have 10milions of backup files.. hehehe | 13:08 |
yowshi | just go in sudo and delete them | 13:08 |
Ein36 | hi | 13:08 |
Ein36 | I have a problem | 13:08 |
yowshi | whats the problem | 13:09 |
alexab | hi | 13:09 |
X-Java | rsk: and can I install ubuntu and windows on same hd? | 13:09 |
Lamego | akan01n, you can delete them at the end of the day :) | 13:09 |
yowshi | java you need to make 2 partitions to do that | 13:10 |
Aw0L | is there a way to disable the user password prompt (for things that require root privileges)? | 13:10 |
Ein36 | before I was having Ubuntu and Windows Vista | 13:10 |
akan01n | yowshi: yeah, but every backup is created with timestap at the end, xorg.conf.200803173872873 | 13:10 |
rsk | yes | 13:10 |
yowshi | so thats what those numbers are | 13:10 |
rsk | X-Java: install windows first then ubuntu and then you can dualboot | 13:10 |
yowshi | you can still just delete em akan | 13:10 |
Ein36 | and I want to install windows XP... but after I install it my ubuntu and vista is gone and now I have only XP | 13:11 |
akan01n | yowshi: auto? i dont want to delete them manually, i dont know how to do it | 13:11 |
Solaris444 | yup Ein36 | 13:11 |
Ein36 | is there way to get back my ubuntu and vista? | 13:11 |
Solaris444 | that is exactly what should have happened | 13:11 |
ReL1K | don't suppose its possible to update from 32 bit gutsy to 64 bit gutsy without completely reinstalling? | 13:11 |
Solaris444 | nope | 13:11 |
baudthief | Anyone know of a simple/secure web proxy I can run on a shell account temporarily? Need to buy something from a site not accessible here | 13:11 |
yowshi | i would use sudo pcmanfm | 13:11 |
X-Java | rsk: and is it possible to create a linux partition instde windows partition so that it won't be bigger than 5 gb? | 13:11 |
putti | nope Rel1k | 13:11 |
Solaris444 | XP overwrites the MBR with NTLDR | 13:11 |
yowshi | then just use pcman gui and do it that way | 13:11 |
Lamego | ReL1K, it's not | 13:11 |
legend2440 | timfromtan1: this article mentions toshset but don't know if that helps video problems http://org.against.org/ubuntu-on-tecra-m1/ | 13:11 |
Solaris444 | doesn't ask permission. | 13:11 |
rsk | sure X-Java | 13:12 |
ReL1K | hehe k | 13:12 |
X-Java | and how? | 13:12 |
timfromtan1 | thanks legend | 13:12 |
ReL1K | anyone got 64 bit gutsy running? run into any issues vs 32 bit? | 13:12 |

rsk | virtual hd? | 13:13 |
putti | rel1k i just switched from 32 to 64bit. Only problem is java but I hardly use that anyway | 13:13 |
yowshi | why would you want vista? | 13:13 |
ReL1K | putti, can't get java working on it? | 13:13 |
Lamego | ReL1K, I have no issues | 13:13 |
ReL1K | or its flaky? | 13:13 |
bod_ | rsk, [chr0n0s],.,.sorry was miles away,. cheers,. i read something online that said "With the hardy beta release this week...." but it had no date stamp,.,. im gonna inquire as to the stableness in +1 | 13:13 |
wookienz | i have a new hdd i want to install ubuntu on from the live cd. the automatic proces is failing to create the partitions on the drive. is there any terminal commands i can use to force it to partition or clear whast on it presently...(an old xbox hdd) | 13:14 |
tekstacy | Anyone know what to use on windows to get into a sshfs server? | 13:14 |
putti | so far I have not been able to get it to work. But I'm using hardy. I have not investigated much though. There might be a fix | 13:14 |
jobanjo | hi i have a question; i have a dell laptop with a docking station, but don't seem to get both screens working (and the sound neither) | 13:14 |
Lamego | tekstacy, you mean an ssh server mounted as a fs on windows ? | 13:14 |
Jupp | tekstacy, last I checked sshfs is not supported under winddows | 13:14 |
X-Java | rsk: can I install ubuntu in an specific folder? | 13:14 |
tekstacy | Yeah, that's what I mean. | 13:15 |
laura85 | hi ^^ I've got a thinkpad and would like to know if there's a linux version of ThinkVantage (e.g. for BIOS updates), or what's the alternative? | 13:15 |
X-Java | I don't want to format hd | 13:15 |
tekstacy | I need a way to do something like encrypted ftp that will work on Win and linux | 13:15 |
rsk | X-Java: with wubi i think you can | 13:15 |
X-Java | wubi? | 13:15 |
ActionParsnip | jobanjo, what dell do you have? | 13:16 |
Jupp | tekstacy, do you only need to transfer files? | 13:16 |
Daisuke_Ido | again, wubi: the worst idea since greedo shooting first | 13:16 |
Solaris444 | Ein36: I already answered. The answer is no. | 13:16 |
Solaris444 | You overwrote the master boot record. | 13:17 |
tekstacy | Jupp, yeah. | 13:17 |
jobanjo | latitude D610 | 13:17 |
Jupp | tekstacy, try scp, it uses ssh | 13:17 |
X-Java | isn't it possible without wubi? | 13:18 |
ActionParsnip | jobanjo, ok so you cant get vga from the dock | 13:18 |
tekstacy | Jupp, I built a "home media server". I kicks a**, but my win-tarded friends can't access it. :) | 13:18 |
tekstacy | Thanks, I'll check out scp | 13:18 |
Jupp | tekstacy, so a samba share | 13:18 |
jobanjo | when i boot docked, it gives a blank screen for a long time, then starts in low graphics mode | 13:18 |
Daisuke_Ido | X-Java, 8.04 will officially support wubi, a completely pointless method of installing linux to a hard disk image file contained within your windows drive that virtually guarantees that the end user will never make the switch to linux. (just my thoughts on it) | 13:19 |
ReL1K | Lamego: is it a pain to get 32 bit apps to work? | 13:19 |
Jupp | tekstacy, *do a samba share | 13:19 |
KenSentMe | I have a 2nd hd in my system and i want to have it mounted on startup and be accessible for all users. This is the current line in /etc/fstab: UUID=blabla /media/disk_a ext3 user,exec,auto,rw 0 1. Now the normal user cant mount the volume and also cant write to it. What am i doing wrong? | 13:19 |
jobanjo | and then i can "recognise" my laptop lcd, and switch between both with the Fn-f8 | 13:19 |
x3on | will Hardy Heron be released on April 1st, or just any time any april? | 13:19 |
yowshi | wubi wtf? | 13:19 |
jobanjo | but the other screen gets the same screenres as my laptoplcd | 13:19 |
ActionParsnip | jobanjo, xorg.conf probably has only one display. You may need to play with it | 13:19 |
tekstacy | Jupp, damn, should have thought of that....... | 13:19 |
rsk | ha 1april, great release date :) | 13:20 |
* tekstacy slams more coffee | 13:20 | |
ActionParsnip | jobanjo, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=103084 | 13:20 |
Lamego | ReL1K, well, not really, you can use a 32 bits schroot for them, but there aren't much 32 bit apps that you should need | 13:20 |
yowshi | and how does it virtually garauntee that the end user will never switch? | 13:20 |
x3on | ? | 13:20 |
rsk | ? | 13:20 |
tekstacy | Jupp, is that relativly safe to set up to access remotely? | 13:21 |
yowshi | one thing i wouldnt mind though is the ability to install while already booted in windows. not into the windows partition but into it's own | 13:21 |
rsk | yowshi: cause it's slower than normal ubuntu afaik, gives of a bad vibe | 13:21 |
yowshi | so i could kind of install while being online and able to get help | 13:21 |
Daisuke_Ido | yowshi, when it's contained entirely within the windows partition, and therefore dependent on windows being there to even exist, what incentive is there for the end user NOT to use windows? | 13:21 |
Jupp | tekstacy, I would do SAMBA outside of your LAN | 13:21 |
ActionParsnip | yowshi, try virtualbox then. you can run any OS from within wndows with it | 13:21 |
Jupp | tekstacy, I *wouldn't do SAMBA outside of your LAN | 13:21 |
X-Java | Daisuke_Ido: iI have already linux on xbox and I've just tried ubuntu 7.10 desktop CD and it looks great, but I will get a PC at my birthday and then I can install whatever I want on it (and I want a stable linux and Ububtu seems to be stable) | 13:21 |
yowshi | i dont want virtual box. and i already have ubuntu here being used heh | 13:21 |
yowshi | no not virtual box a full and actual install | 13:22 |
Jafet | I have installed Ubuntu on an external disk and configured it to swap to a partition on the internal disk. However, when memory usage goes up, it doesn't seem to do that, but instead freezes up and initiates a flurry of activity on the external disk until I pull the plug. | 13:22 |
ActionParsnip | yowshi, so what is your issue? | 13:22 |
yowshi | just i had problems when i was trying to install ubuntu in the first place | 13:22 |
ActionParsnip | yowshi, thats very common | 13:22 |
yowshi | so it would have been nice if i could have installed while booted into windows | 13:22 |
Jafet | So, should I expect Ubuntu to be able to swap to a partition on a different disk? | 13:22 |
yowshi | that way help would have been easy to access | 13:22 |
Daisuke_Ido | Jafet, of course, wherever you set the swap to be | 13:23 |
ActionParsnip | yowshi, so you mean install to a different partition from within windows? | 13:23 |
yowshi | yes | 13:23 |
x3on | I dont understand what you said rsk :) | 13:23 |
Jafet | yowshi, you can run the install disk in a virtualizer and grant it access to the partition, no? | 13:23 |
ActionParsnip | yowshi, you could suggest it to the ubuntu team and it might get implemented. | 13:23 |
yowshi | i have no idea nor did i back then how to do that | 13:23 |
Jupp | I have an external usb hd (ext3) and I want it to always mount to the same location (if I let the system pick the name then it will always change depending on how many other hds I have at the time). Is the only way out to edit my fstab and add an entry for that specific UUID? | 13:23 |
ak5 | um, hello, I am really having trouble with compiz-fusion. I actually installed the latest fglrx drivers and I get all the nice effects I want... until I open firefox | 13:24 |
Jafet | yowshi, but you need a virtualizer. Qemu might work but I'm not sure. VMWare would definitely work. | 13:24 |
ak5 | any ideas? | 13:24 |
Jafet | Daisuke_Ido, well it doesn't seem to be doing that, is it... | 13:24 |
yowshi | but if you could install while from inside windows to a blank hdd it would help switching over | 13:24 |
Jafet | yowshi, the problem is, I suspect, that none of the Ubuntu developers want to code for Windows... | 13:24 |
ak5 | yowshi: you can, it would just suck setting up | 13:24 |
yowshi | i knowe | 13:24 |
ActionParsnip | yowshi, get it suggested | 13:24 |
Daisuke_Ido | Jafet, if you use the guided or resize method, no, it creates swap on the same partition | 13:25 |
X-Java | will wubi install Ubuntu from cd or internet? | 13:25 |
yowshi | ak5 you can but to do it you need to know enough that you wouldnt NEED to have easy access to help | 13:25 |
Daisuke_Ido | you'll have to do manual | 13:25 |

ak5 | yowshi: exactly | 13:25 |
YgorAbreu_ESP_BR | Hello Guys..ive been reading and i realize that Feisty its better for HP laptops/notebooks than Gutsy...right? | 13:25 |
yowshi | where do i make a suggestion | 13:25 |
Jafet | Daisuke_Ido, hmm, I'll check /etc/fstab to see if the correct partitions are specified. | 13:25 |
ActionParsnip | yowshi, I suggested an install to usb stick as an install option | 13:25 |
yowshi | on what part of the site | 13:25 |
ak5 | yowshi: but the ubuntu install cd is ridiculously easy these days | 13:25 |
yowshi | AK5 it aint trust me | 13:26 |
ak5 | yowshi: what do you mean? | 13:26 |
yowshi | last year when i installed i couldnt use the default live cd | 13:26 |
yowshi | i had to install from the secondary | 13:26 |
ak5 | yowshi: get the alternative text based cd | 13:26 |
tekstacy | yowshi, what kind of box are you putting it on? | 13:26 |
yowshi | and it isnt as easy | 13:26 |
yowshi | the text based cd isnt as easy to use | 13:26 |
KenSentMe | I have a 2nd hd in my system and i want to have it mounted on startup and be accessible for all users. This is the current line in /etc/fstab: UUID=blabla /media/disk_a ext3 user,exec,auto,rw 0 1. Now the normal user cant mount the volume and also cant write to it. What am i doing wrong? | 13:26 |
ak5 | yowshi: it isn't as *pretty* | 13:26 |
yowshi | it aint as easy either i think | 13:26 |
ak5 | it is still incredibly simple | 13:26 |
ActionParsnip | yowshi, http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com | 13:26 |
YgorAbreu_ESP_BR | The alternate cd can be used, using the normal live cd, writing f6 and then only.ubiquity | 13:27 |
ActionParsnip | yowshi, try there | 13:27 |
yowshi | the live cd worked but always froze when it started formatting | 13:27 |
ak5 | the makers of that did an awesome job imo | 13:27 |
=== neversfelde_ is now known as neversfelde | ||
ActionParsnip | KenSentMe, is it formatted ext3? | 13:27 |
Jafet | Daisuke_Ido, hah. /etc/fstab specifies the correct UUID but it's not detected somehow. | 13:27 |
KenSentMe | ActionParsnip, i think it is | 13:27 |
YgorAbreu_ESP_BR | yowshi: the normal ubuntu live cd can be used as a alternate cd by writing only.ubiquity on the command live F6 | 13:27 |
yowshi | so i actually tried 5 times when i first installed | 13:27 |
Daisuke_Ido | Jafet, that could be a problem then... | 13:27 |
ak5 | anyone had trouble with compiz effects and firefox before? | 13:28 |
yowshi | yeah well with the text based it took me 5 tries to get an install that worked | 13:28 |
ActionParsnip | KenSentMe, I'd check with sudo fdisk -l | 13:28 |
YgorAbreu_ESP_BR | yowshi: that way wont freeze! | 13:28 |
KenSentMe | ActionParsnip, it is | 13:28 |
Daisuke_Ido | YgorAbreu_ESP_BR, completely useless info if the livecd won't even get that far. | 13:28 |
Jafet | Daisuke_Ido, swap locations are completely determined at boot time, right? | 13:28 |
Daisuke_Ido | Jafet, i don't know | 13:28 |
ak5 | yowshi: are you very new to linux? | 13:28 |
yowshi | theres just options and shit in the install that i had never heard of as a first time linux user | 13:28 |
Jafet | Bleh, I'll just change this and reboot. | 13:28 |
YgorAbreu_ESP_BR | Daisuke_Ido: woot do u mean by wont even get that far? | 13:29 |
* Jafet needs a memory upgrade soon | 13:29 | |
Daisuke_Ido | i'm still a relative newbie (started with edgy) | 13:29 |
ak5 | yowshi: sry, didn't occur to me that that is a possiblility :/ | 13:29 |
yowshi | LOL | 13:29 |
yowshi | LMAO | 13:29 |
yowshi | i think thats the problem | 13:29 |
yowshi | these sorts of issues dont really occur to the dev team either | 13:30 |
Daisuke_Ido | YgorAbreu_ESP_BR, a lot of people that have problems with the livecd can't get it to go that far (to where they can actually enter boot options) | 13:30 |
tekstacy | Jafet, i just put 4gb in this lappy. :) I reccomend the upgrade | 13:30 |
KenSentMe | ActionParsnip, it is ext3 and root can create folders etc | 13:30 |
ActionParsnip | KenSentMe, i'd google fstab to check you have the right stuff. Can you also give a pastebin of your /etc/fstab | 13:30 |
ak5 | yowshi: I just helped someone install ubuntu the other day, he said the only thing confusing was the partitioning if you want to keep your windows | 13:30 |
Jafet | tekstacy, heh, this Vaio supports only 2 and I only have a quarter of that. | 13:30 |
KenSentMe | ActionParsnip, i pasted the line in my question already | 13:30 |
* tekstacy cringes | 13:30 | |
yowshi | i was trying to setup a raid setup and stuff and i had never done a raid before or anything otgher then a basic press here to install windows before | 13:31 |
ActionParsnip | KenSentMe, do the whole thing dude | 13:31 |
yowshi | so EVERYTHING was like new and i didnt know jack from crap | 13:31 |
Jafet | tekstacy, but all my apps except Firefox only use 640K of memory! | 13:31 |
ak5 | yowshi: well, I started linux with gentoo | 13:31 |
ak5 | yowshi: not pretty either | 13:31 |
yowshi | i truied gentoo first | 13:31 |
Jafet | ak5, good for you! | 13:31 |
yowshi | it couldnt get online | 13:31 |
yowshi | it took me 6 tries to get a working raided gentoo 64 instakll | 13:32 |
KenSentMe | ActionParsnip, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59919/ | 13:32 |
ak5 | yowshi: the thing is, as a first time user, I wouldn't recommend going for all the bells and whistles | 13:32 |
XATRIX | hi...did anyone configure Atheros AR5006EG wireless card ? | 13:32 |
yowshi | yeah well i wanted what i wanted | 13:32 |
yowshi | which was an optimal setup for the harddrives i had | 13:32 |
Jafet | Gentoo sounds like religion to me. Suffer very hard to install to obtain dubious benefits later. | 13:32 |
yowshi | well have | 13:32 |
ak5 | yowshi: so advanced hardware stuff aside, the ubuntu installer is very nice | 13:32 |
tekstacy | Jafet, honestly, the only time I ever used all four was when I watched a movie while running XP, and Vista AND Plan9 in virtual box and copying files | 13:32 |
ActionParsnip | KenSentMe, which mount point is the drive using? | 13:33 |
yowshi | see if i went with the basic i would have 2 unused hard drives right now imnstead of 1 | 13:33 |
yowshi | and i didnt want to waste 250 gigs | 13:33 |
KenSentMe | ActionParsnip, /media/disk_a | 13:33 |
ak5 | Jafet: it's not really suffering, I find an ubuntu is easily and quickly installed, but will get slower over time, where as gentoo won't | 13:33 |
ak5 | both have advantages | 13:33 |
=== O`cens0red is now known as cens0red | ||
ak5 | yowshi: what raid? | 13:34 |
ActionParsnip | KenSentMe, there is no instance of "_a" in that pastebin | 13:34 |
yowshi | i wanted let me think no raid on the boot and raid 1 on the rest | 13:34 |
KenSentMe | ActionParsnip, line 13 | 13:35 |
ActionParsnip | KenSentMe, is it this UUID=47BD-4A90/media/disk_a_win | 13:35 |
yowshi | i wound up not using raid in the end :( | 13:35 |
ak5 | yowshi: ah, well, is the boot a seperate harddive or just a partition? | 13:35 |
KenSentMe | ActionParsnip, no, the other one | 13:35 |
ActionParsnip | KenSentMe, yeah, notepad knows nothig :S | 13:35 |
yowshi | seperate partition | 13:35 |
ak5 | yowshi: that makes it difficult XD | 13:35 |
yowshi | i have boot log usr and home partitions | 13:35 |
ActionParsnip | KenSentMe, got | 13:35 |
yowshi | oh and swap | 13:35 |
ak5 | yowshi: oooohh software raid? | 13:36 |
yowshi | yeah sk5 | 13:36 |
yowshi | ak5 | 13:36 |
ActionParsnip | KenSentMe, why are you using UUIDs? | 13:36 |
ak5 | yowshi: hehe, I was thinking: is this guy stupid? | 13:36 |
ak5 | yowshi: yeah, that's hard to setup | 13:36 |
yowshi | i started with my hardware in a hardware raid | 13:37 |
ActionParsnip | use /dev/sdb1 or whatever it is. You could use some spacing in there | 13:37 |
yowshi | which i had asked for when i built this computer | 13:37 |
KenSentMe | ActionParsnip, because it's a swappable bay, and i want to use a different mountpoint if there is another disk in the bay. And uuid are ubuntu default | 13:37 |
yowshi | but that seemed to be interfereing with telling my installs to use a raid | 13:37 |
yowshi | only i didnt know it | 13:37 |
YgorAbreu_ESP_BR | Daisuke_Ido: well mate..if some1 can just boot the cd and enter by normal boot and get froozed..the only-ubiquity is the best solution cuz everything will be commando line.. dont ya think? | 13:37 |
ak5 | mhm | 13:37 |
ActionParsnip | KenSentMe, back it up and give /dev/<whatever> a go | 13:37 |

gligorhoria | hellow | 14:08 |
Lunks | If I create a launcher, it goes fine with my system icons. But window icon and tray icon are original X-Chat icons. | 14:08 |
mysticfrost123in | hi sweet | 14:08 |
fredmv | Lunks: it would seem you'd have to alter that in the internal config of the application. E.g., look for some kind of /resources dir in the application's folder | 14:08 |
Lamego | Lunks, launchers icons are not the applications itnernal icons | 14:09 |
Ein_ | I have Ubuntu, Vista and XP installed to my system... but I can only boot Ubuntu and Vista and I can't boot XP | 14:09 |
Lunks | Lamego: but lots of apps use iconset I chose, why not X-Chat? =P | 14:09 |
Ein_ | is there's way for I can boot XP also? | 14:09 |
Lamego | because x-chat choosed it's own icons instead of using the standard iconset, I guess :P | 14:10 |
Ein_ | plz ppl I need help | 14:10 |
Mez | mysticfrost123in, how can we help you ? | 14:10 |
deus | Quick, im using ati and got atitvout and aticonfig | 14:11 |
jin | Ein_: try to post in the forum. | 14:11 |
Lamego | Ein_, yes you should be able, you will need to setup a grub entry for it if t was'nt setup already by the installer | 14:11 |
gligorhoria | if i get kernell panics in ubuntu server, can it mean that my cpu is dieing? | 14:11 |

deus | im using s.videp | 14:11 |
savetheWorld | Seveas: ping, PM please? | 14:11 |
Lamego | gligorhoria, it could mean a buggy driver, buggy kernel, or hardware problem, it may not be related to the cpu at all | 14:12 |

gligorhoria | the problem apears only on high cpu activty 90% + | 14:12 |

Polarina | bazhang: Use WPA2-AES and you're fine. :) | 14:17 |

k1dugar | hello, can I get support for Hardy here | 14:17 |
ArthurArchnix | bazhang: If you've got wifi, you've got a router, if you've got a router, you can monitor dhcp leases? | 14:17 |

gligorhoria | i will keep my question in the ubuntu range only | 14:18 |
Mez | mysticfrost123in, you are muted in here, only I can see what you are saying. This is not a chat channel. This is a support channel. | 14:18 |
ArthurArchnix | bazhang: Depends on router. Make and model? | 14:18 |
bazhang | thanks Polarina | 14:18 |
Mez | mysticfrost123in, I suggest you find another channel, as it seems this is not the place you are looking for | 14:18 |

bazhang | ArthurArchnix: well it is unlikely as I am using wpa/wpa2, just kind of curious if I could do this via the command line or need to connect to my router | 14:18 |
bazhang | cheers Lamego | 14:19 |
Lamego | :) | 14:19 |
gligorhoria | sorry what was the channel for #c/cpp ? | 14:19 |
jpatrick | gligorhoria: ##c o ##cpp | 14:19 |
jpatrick | gligorhoria: ##c++* | 14:19 |
gligorhoria | ty | 14:19 |
ArthurArchnix | Yeah. Router. They're not touching your machine unless you're pretending to be an AP. Most router software I've seen isn't sophisticated enough to montior sites and such. But it's possible there's config files that will mail you reports. Then you wouldn't need to log in. | 14:19 |
gligorhoria | that's treigh forward :D | 14:19 |
_Scooter | bazhang: most routers will allow you to enter the mac addresses that you want to allow to connect. some will even forward syslog to another system... makes it easier to monitor with a simple tail -f /var/log/syslog :) | 14:20 |
ArthurArchnix | bazhang: ^^ | 14:20 |

BinaryFu | Hey all, I'm having a major headache with Nautilus. Running Gutsy, Nautilus has recently decided it does not want to draw the desktop properly, it's fine opening folders, but does not want to touch a single file (none are clickable), desktop icons are not clickable, and I cannot right click on the desktop for menu. Can anyone give me some help with this? | 14:23 |
_Scooter | xchat | 14:23 |
n2diy | heartsblood: I ditched Evolution for Korganizer. | 14:23 |
lasivian | I heard the best option is mirc under wine | 14:23 |
* _Scooter has found that irssi+screen > * | 14:23 | |
BinaryFu | lasivian: I use Pidgin, myself. | 14:23 |
ArthurArchnix | lasivian: hehahah... where'd you hear that? | 14:23 |
lasivian | i'm working on building a windows-replacement box | 14:24 |
heartsblood | n2diy: I'm not a fan of kde though. To me kde seems like the bastard child of xp and OSX. | 14:24 |
BinaryFu | lasivian: GUI, easy to use, looks clean. | 14:24 |
_Scooter | lasivian: check out xchat, it can do everything that mirc can do, if not more | 14:24 |
n2diy | heartsblood: It will run under Gnome. | 14:24 |
lasivian | running xchat now | 14:24 |
heartsblood | oh? | 14:24 |
ccharles` | lasivian: I really *really* like irssi (console), but if you need a GUI client X-Chat is quite popular. Also Konversation. | 14:24 |
lasivian | slightly underwhelmed | 14:24 |
_Scooter | lasivian: so hook some scripts up to it | 14:25 |
ArthurArchnix | lasivian: Windows replacement... what does that mean? You'll never get Ubuntu to act like Windows. You'll be able to replace much of the functionality, but replace is not the same as replicate. | 14:25 |
lasivian | ArthurArchnix: : I would like 80-90% similar functionality | 14:27 |
BinaryFu | Can anyone help me with my Nautilus issue? | 14:27 |

lasivian | i'm still working on minor stuff, like no userlist on irc | 14:28 |
ArthurArchnix | lasivian: So use pidgin. It works in place of Mirc, MSN messenger, AIM, Yahoo Chat, ICQ, Google chat, and others. | 14:28 |

_Scooter | camero1: if you edit the line for the first option and backspace the 'quiet' option out, what happens? | 14:29 |
BinaryFu | I'm on Pidgin right now. What are you trying to do in irc that you can't do in pidgin? | 14:29 |

bertvdp | _Scooter, it doesn't, but it could be a corrupt file | 14:38 |
bazhang | BinaryFu: and no error messages? | 14:38 |
_Scooter | bertvdp: can you mount the .img on a loop device? | 14:38 |
bazhang | teabag4: best to ask in #compiz-fusion | 14:38 |

_Scooter | bertvdp: yeah | 14:40 |
Pilantra | bazhang: sorry, well, the vmware-server is run in CentOS and authenticate in pam, so when service restart, the service it's not up. the clients is ubuntu! | 14:40 |
_Scooter | AudioSenseCD: what router? | 14:40 |
BinaryFu | bazhang: No, it hangs when you get to a folder that has files not folders. For example, in my music collection, if I go to ~/toons/a/ it's fine and I can keep clicking on folders with 100% response. If I go into /acdc for example, it will not show the files, but it will show how many are in that folder in the status bar, and it just hangs indefinitely. (I've been patient enough to wait a full minute for it to respond before, with zero r | 14:40 |
bazhang | Pilantra: sounds like a cent os issue | 14:40 |
bertvdp | _Scooter, I can mount it perfectly | 14:41 |

BinaryFu | bazhang: That's where my frustration is - I don't know. It's fairly obvious it's linked to Nautilus, yet killing my ~/.nautilus directory has not helped at all, I even attempted removing ~/.gnome2 in hopes that might resolve the problem, and still no fix. | 14:47 |
BinaryFu | bazhang: That is about the only other thing I *can* do, and it's a bit daunting considering it will probably want to uninstall EVERYTHING in gnome since it's a linked program in Ubuntu's core. | 14:47 |
Pirate_Hunter | ArthurArchnix: i found that link myself but the option obconf i cant seem to find it in menu or even when i choose to start session with gnome | 14:48 |
ArthurArchnix | Pirate_Hunter: and this one too https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Openbox | 14:48 |
_Scooter | AudioSenseCD: you need to setup port forwarding for the DCC ports - http://portforward.com/english/routers/port_forwarding/Edimax/BR-6104K/default.htm | 14:48 |
nexius | hi . can some one help me setup grub so i can bot my win hdd from grub boot | 14:48 |
BinaryFu | Hmmm....it's only trying to kill two things (one of them the ubuntu-desktop >_<) I think I'll give it a shot and see if it becomes hopelessly borked or not. | 14:49 |
BinaryFu | BBIAB | 14:49 |
ArthurArchnix | Pirate_Hunter: Is obconf installed? sudo aptitude show obconf | 14:49 |
bazhang | BinaryFu: that first one is a metapackage | 14:49 |

Pirate_Hunter | ArthurArchnix: well it shows if i start openbox on its own but not when running with gnome like im doing now | 14:50 |

bazhang | jordan: when you are in xubuntu what browser do you use? | 14:50 |

lancerocke | Does anyone have any idea how I would open a text file with utf-8 encoding in Ubuntu? | 16:45 |

DRebellion | one_matthias, gedit is gui, vim is textmode | 16:46 |
jetscreamer | lancerocke: run file on it and check the filetype | 16:46 |
luben | lancerocke: if you want to change the codification use iconv -f utf-8 -t iso-8859-1 /tmp/datos.csv > /tmp/datos2.csv | 16:46 |

NekoKun | DRebellion: K6 II 500mhz, 256MBRam... | 16:49 |

lancerocke | jetscreamer: http://www.imagebam.com/image/ae8ed33906166 | 16:49 |

DRebellion | lancerocke, if i may ask, why are you running utorrent in wine? | 16:51 |
zvz | !theme > zvz | 16:51 |
NekoKun | Haden: I think It has about 20 gigs, and other than svn and apache, nothing will use the server... not even e-mails | 16:51 |
BluesDrive | so about how long would it take to make 160 gigs into .ext3? | 16:51 |
lancerocke | DRebellion: because there is no linux torrent client as good as uTorrent | 16:51 |
BluesDrive | ok...nevermind | 16:51 |
nikrud | Kate_mins: how did you install phpmyadmin? | 16:51 |
Haden | NekoKun: it's kind of a bland question. if it works, it works... if the harddrive is old I recommend raid 0 or something with a backup; that's all | 16:51 |

DRebellion | jetscreamer, by using wine you create huge problems from the start. | 16:52 |
Kate_mins | nikrud: from synaptic | 16:52 |
jpatrick | !samba | Jezz | 16:52 |
Haden | NekoKun: apache and svn will run quite well on 500mhz; I've seen it done on 25mhz sun systems, so no worries about the speed if you keep the GUI as minimalistic as possible | 16:52 |
ubotu | Jezz: Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT. | 16:52 |

henryvps | I am running ubuntu 8.04 alpha 6. i have the latest nvidia drivers installed. dual monitor with extended view works perfectly, but when i install glx-server to enable fast rendering possibilities the nvidia-settings won't work and i'm also not able to restore the former dual monitor view (anything but faulty twin view isn't possible).. what could be the problem here? | 17:10 |
DRebellion | henryvps, /join #ubuntu+1 | 17:10 |
bazhang | Chipsa964: spam and bluff ;] | 17:10 |
Bitmess | Nautilus is freezing up everytime I open it. Should I reinstall it? | 17:10 |
Chipsa964 | haha | 17:10 |
BluesDrive | all right | 17:10 |
BluesDrive | here I go...restart! | 17:10 |
BluesDrive | do do doooo! | 17:10 |
vitornb | bazhang: yeah, i already bought steam :D its a command to install or doubleclick in esomewhere? | 17:11 |
Kate_mins | nikrud: when i going to http://localhost/phpmyadmin i get an empty page ? what could be the problem ? | 17:11 |
bazhang | vitornb: you got wine installed? | 17:11 |
vitornb | bazhang: i dont think so, i only updated | 17:11 |
mattias_ | how can i modify screen resolution on the screensaver only | 17:11 |
bazhang | sudo apt-get install wine vitornb ;] | 17:12 |
bullgard4 | Bitmess: No, not at once. Rather start it in a Gnome terminal and analyze the error messages when Nautilus freezes. | 17:12 |
Bitmess | bullgard4: How can I do this? | 17:12 |
vitornb | omfg! i cant install, im booting ubuntu from cdrom | 17:13 |
bazhang | Bitmess: type nautilus in a terminal and pastebin the error messages if any | 17:13 |
bazhang | vitornb: haha | 17:13 |
prince_jammys | Kate_mins: open the file /etc/apache2/apache2.conf | 17:13 |
DRebellion | Bitmess, applications -> accessories -> terminal . type 'nautilus' and hit enter. | 17:13 |
vitornb | bazhang: thank you very much | 17:13 |
vitornb | i will install on hd and then do it | 17:13 |
carwash | I have really slow 2d performance with the newest nvidia driver. Any tips? | 17:13 |
bazhang | vitornb: when you have it installed you know what to do right? | 17:13 |
vitornb | bazhang: so far so good! | 17:14 |
DRebellion | vitornb, you don't have to use the winehq repositories. 'wine' is already in the ubuntu repos. | 17:14 |
bullgard4 | Bitmess: Open a Gnome terminal. Type 'nautilus' (Enter). There should appear error messages when you are using Nautilus and Nautilus freeses. | 17:14 |
prince_jammys | Kate_mins: at the bottom of the file, add: Include /etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf | 17:14 |
nikrud | Kate_mins: not sure. You could try purging (mark for complete removal) and then reinstall. | 17:14 |
Bitmess | bullgard4: Nothing happens. just sits there with no cursor | 17:14 |
vitornb | DRebellion: can i load it from cdroom and play? | 17:15 |
bazhang | carwash could you clarify a bit please? | 17:15 |
bullgard4 | Bitmess: What sits? Please be more verbose. | 17:15 |
nikrud | prince_jammys: shouldn't be necessary, it's referenced in /etc/apache2/conf.od | 17:15 |
DRebellion | vitornb, nope | 17:15 |
vitornb | okay | 17:15 |
vitornb | ty | 17:15 |
nikrud | *conf.d | 17:15 |
prince_jammys | nikrud: yeah, i ended up doing that because i had the same problem as her | 17:15 |
nikrud | prince_jammys: ah. Strange, did you file a bug? | 17:15 |
prince_jammys | nikrud: good idea | 17:16 |
Bitmess | bullgard4: the terminal showing nautilus and when I try to open nautilus from the menu it doesn't do anything. | 17:16 |
tyranis | how do you get console to recognize this path? /media/sda1/Documents and Settings/ It goes to /media/sda1/Documents instead | 17:16 |
combat | tyranis, for spaces type "\ " (withour quotes) | 17:16 |
prince_jammys | tyranis: quote it | 17:16 |
DRebellion | tyranis, /media/sda1/Documents\ and\ Settings/ | 17:16 |
prince_jammys | just put it in quotes | 17:16 |
bazhang | Bitmess: did you type nautilus in the terminal | 17:17 |
nikrud | prince_jammys: do you have Include /etc/apache2/conf.d/ at the bottom of /etc/apache2/apache2.conf ? | 17:17 |
TimeFX | I am having a bit of trouble translating how my ISP works in Windows XP to Linux, anyway, I got my PPTP connection to establish in Linux the problem is figuring out how to setup the route, basically, I have an always on connection to the ISP network which is setup as IP: 10.2.44.10/mask 255.255.0.0/gw 10.2.0.1 and when I want to go onto the internet I pon dsl-provider which is at IP 10.192.0.3 and then I have a tunnel up over ppp0 now the trouble I have is | 17:17 |

Saelynh | hello | 17:17 |
flakrat | Can anyone point me to a page explaining how to configure Gutsy on a laptop so that it doesn't take forever to boot when I don't have the ehternet cable plugged in? | 17:18 |
bullgard4 | Bitmess: Ah! Understood. Yes, in that case you may try to de-install Nautilus and re-install it. But before you may try Gnome menu System > Administration > Update Manager first. | 17:18 |
prince_jammys | tyranis: i was gonna ask you if you were trying to use spaces a while back, since you had a file named "and" :) | 17:18 |
flakrat | the network obviously needs to work when I do have the cable connected, however | 17:18 |
carwash | 169.12 with a quadro 570m ,the problem resides with or without compiz on both feiste and hoary. Same problem with 169.09 (?) (the previous drivers..) | 17:18 |

bsdnewb07 | guys any sendmail wizards around? | 17:19 |
carwash | I'm sorry, gutsy and hoary. All these animal names have me confused :P | 17:19 |
bullgard4 | Bitmess: Please consider the remark of bazhang also. | 17:19 |
prince_jammys | tyranis: you can also use tab completion in the terminal after typing "Docum" and the shell will autocomplete it properly | 17:19 |
mattias_ | bye | 17:19 |
bazhang | carwash Hardy you mean? | 17:20 |
bsdnewb07 | i got smtp auth working, but can other mail servers deliver mail to my server as it asks for authorization | 17:20 |

carwash | bazhang, of course | 17:20 |
bazhang | carwash what are you running now? | 17:20 |
tyranis | prince_jammys: I'll try using \ | 17:20 |
Bitmess | bazhang: No, I don't log in as root. I don't even think I have used Nautilus as sudo | 17:20 |
carwash | I'm on Hardy with 169.12 | 17:20 |
prince_jammys | tyranis: yep, that works. either Documents\ and\ Settings or "/media/blah/Doc and settings" | 17:21 |
bazhang | carwash then this is the wrong channel; try #ubuntu+1 please | 17:21 |
dubby | hey anyone im trying to run gdesklets(from synaptic vs 0.35 on gutsy) and it gives me a blank gdesklets shell | 17:21 |
carwash | bazhang, sure, but the problem was also apparent in gutsy | 17:21 |
bazhang | dubby running compiz? | 17:21 |
=== alfirin is now known as druadan | ||
dubby | bazhang: no compiz | 17:22 |
bazhang | carwash how were the drivers installed? | 17:22 |
prince_jammys | tyranis: but if you're making a symbolic link with ln, you could just use the tab key to autocomplete the name | 17:22 |
bazhang | dubby have you put in any widgets? | 17:22 |
=== paradon_ is now known as paradon | ||

ader10 | Is there a way to make the progress bar for copying files only be at 100% when it's safe to unmount (ex: you copy a file from your hard drive to your usb flash drive and the copy dialog says complete, but the file isn't completely written) | 17:23 |
david_ | I am trying to install drivers for a LinkSys WUSB54G USB device. How do I access the terminal? I am new to LINUX. | 17:23 |
combat | always get used to TAB, you will become very fast in the terminal | 17:23 |
prince_jammys | tyranis: ok. just letting you know that the shell will autocomplete every path that's there, after typing the first chars | 17:23 |
dubby | bazhang I noticed that there is a version 0.36 but its only compiled for the i386 archietecture and i have 64bit | 17:23 |

DRebellion | _Tux_, mplayer | 17:25 |

_Tux_ | tried mplayer...still no go | 17:26 |
Adylass | Hello ! I try to install Gusty on a SMP computer (Tyan board). When booting the LiveCD I got dumped to initramfs. This machine was running Centos 4.6 okay. Can someone help me ? | 17:26 |
david_ | ubotu, thanks. | 17:26 |
ubotu | You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-) | 17:26 |
bazhang | Adylass: you might try the alternate cd then; what video card | 17:26 |
tyranis | How do I change the settings of the compiz install that comes with 7.10? | 17:26 |
DRebellion | _Tux_, have you installed libdvdcss? | 17:26 |

MurielGodoi | FIX: Hi all, my pci express tv tunner is listed in lsusb but not listed in lspci. How can I fix that? | 17:27 |
bazhang | MurielGodoi: listed and not listed? | 17:27 |
prince_jammys | tyranis: the name of the app is ccsm (compiz config settings-manager) . you can access it through Preferences->Appearance (i think) or "advanced desktop effects". or type: ccsm | 17:28 |
MurielGodoi | bazhang: listed in lsusb and not listed in lspci | 17:28 |
bazhang | MurielGodoi: get a pci card | 17:28 |
MurielGodoi | bazhang: I have a hp laptop :/ | 17:29 |
combat | MurielGodoi, why should it be listed in lspci? | 17:29 |
bazhang | MurielGodoi: then it would only be listed in lsusb | 17:29 |
ferric84 | how do I use ls with the size option? I'm trying to display the output in MB | 17:29 |
Squawk | ferric84, ls -lh | 17:29 |
DRebellion | ferric84, ls -sh | 17:29 |
tyranis | prince_jammys: thanks again for the help | 17:29 |
ferric84 | ahhhh, thanks | 17:29 |
MurielGodoi | bazhang: but I was thinking that internally it works as a pci bus | 17:29 |

Sandra24 | A person recommended "copy the appropriate lib64 libs into the jail", I've got 12 x86 libs, how do I find the appropriate lib64 ones? | 17:30 |
MurielGodoi | bazhang: I just have my camera in my /dev/video0, there is no /dev/video1 for tv tuner as it supposed to be right? | 17:30 |
bazhang | Adylass: best bet would be the alternate cd; that works when the livecd chokes | 17:30 |
DRebellion | Sandra24, appropriate to what? | 17:31 |
Sandra24 | I notice there's a libc.so.6, but in lib64 i can only find libc.so, should I copy that? | 17:31 |
tyranis | When changing the appearance options I get an error saying the composite extension is not available | 17:31 |
JBoss | why is the apache package broken, when i try to install it? and how do I fix it? | 17:31 |
DRebellion | JBoss, broken? | 17:31 |
Sandra24 | DRebellion: to rssh I guess, there are 12 "normal" libs, so I guess I copy the corresponding lib64 ones | 17:31 |
JBoss | yep | 17:31 |
Adylass | bazhang: k, I will try. How I can disable the splash screen ? I want to see errors | 17:31 |
Signil | hey.. | 17:31 |
TrueNme | trying to run a file and it does nothing | 17:31 |
bazhang | MurielGodoi: I am hopeless with tvtuner cards; someone else here may know however--what are you trying to achieve? mythtv? | 17:32 |
Sandra24 | but they don't match up exactly, like I said with libc | 17:32 |
Signil | why cant vlc play the .vob files :( | 17:32 |
DRebellion | JBoss, well... i just happen to have a fix to your mysterious, hidden problem in my inner left jacket pocket.... | 17:32 |
noodlesgc | Signil just use xine | 17:33 |
MurielGodoi | bazhang: I installed tvtime... Is mythtv an alternative for tvtime? | 17:33 |
DRebellion | Signil, mplayer: mplayer dvd:///home/sandra/file.vob | 17:33 |
Signil | hmm k try tht.. | 17:33 |
bazhang | Adylass: the boot parameter nosplash and remove quiet | 17:33 |
bazhang | MurielGodoi: mythtv is like tivo | 17:34 |
DRebellion | Signil, i think that's the syntax (i may be off) | 17:34 |
Adylass | bazhang: Okay, thanks. | 17:34 |
TrueNme | do i have to run an executable file from the terminal ? | 17:34 |
Signil | DRebellion: ok :) | 17:34 |
Adylass | bazhang: I boot the livecd, press escape and ask for "live nospalsh" and I still get the splash screen at the boot time. | 17:35 |

DRebellion | bod_, man ln | 17:39 |

hyper_ch | hiho, I just got a little phpMyAdmin problem. In a table I do have binary data and when I export it as .cvs it's human readable... however how do I import that altered .cvs data back into the db? | 17:42 |
crypto | wondering if I should install ubuntu or opensolaris, any guidance will be hightly appreciated | 17:43 |
prince_jammys | bod_: no. you do ln -s /home/bod/pics /home/bod/Desktop/pics and the link on the desktop just takes you to /home/bod/pics. you don't have to delete anything | 17:43 |
DRebellion | crypto, ubuntu | 17:43 |
StefanW | crypto: depending on what you want to do, ubuntu is the most user friendly thing around at the moment :) | 17:43 |

Hermit1 | Hey, quick question - Ive just installed gutsy gibbin along with the preexisting vista, and when i go to Gparted, the vista partition cannot be read, and i can't boot into vista. any ideas? | 17:44 |
prince_jammys | bod_: the second path just points to the first (target path) - it doesn't create a copy | 17:44 |
bazhang | Adylass: you typed nosplash or nospalsh? and you removed the quiet from the boot param? | 17:44 |
StefanW | !vista | 17:44 |

ArthurArchnix | Invisionfree: Yup, looks like you're using the i810 driver. Odd. Do this: aptitude show xserver-xorg-video-intel | grep Version | 19:11 |
ArthurArchnix | oops | 19:11 |

Invisionfree | ArthurArchnix: State: installed | 19:12 |
Pirate_Hunter | skarface: how do i set the colours at the moment my desktop has my own theme which is outside openbox | 19:12 |
ArthurArchnix | Invisionfree: and the command above that, version... aptitude show xserver-xorg-video-intel | grep Version | 19:12 |

ArthurArchnix | Invisionfree: Ok, so you've got the lastest driver, you're just not using it. Maybe you said no to restricted extras. | 19:13 |
skarface | Pirate_Hunter: wherever those colors, i.e. #7eee8cf, are indicated. I don't use openbox but I assume it's in the theme file mentioned at the bottom. | 19:13 |
nkriz | thanks! | 19:13 |
Invisionfree | ArthurArchnix: How can I fix it | 19:13 |
Pirate_Hunter | skarface: ok so i should remove it before running openbox is that what your saying | 19:14 |
ArthurArchnix | Invisionfree: sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.bak | 19:14 |
MurielGodoi | Hi, I discovered that bttv driver is the right one for my tv tuner. but when I load bttv module my camera at /dev/video0 stop working, seems that both are loaded in the same device.. how to fiz that? | 19:14 |
Invisionfree | ArthurArchnix: Done. | 19:14 |
ArthurArchnix | Invisionfree: then gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and change i810 to intel, save and restart x | 19:14 |
skarface | Pirate_Hunter: not really, but you could try that. the problem is that whatever is calling for those colors is written wrong. those aren't color codes. look up html color codes and you can see how they're supposed to work. | 19:14 |
HopsNBarley | does DHCP provided preseed info work okay in gutsy? I got it to work fine in etch, but gutsy is never getting the preseed file. | 19:15 |
skarface | Pirate_Hunter: they're six digits, not seven | 19:15 |
Pirate_Hunter | skarface: yeah i noticed that now since you mentioned it, the problem is how do i locate what is calling those colours | 19:15 |
Invisionfree | ArthurArchnix: Driver"i810" -> Driver"intel"? | 19:15 |
skarface | Pirate_Hunter: I'm thinking it's probaby that macos theme | 19:15 |
infest | is it possible to view checking quotes at the ubuntu startup? | 19:16 |
skarface | it shows you the location of that | 19:16 |
chris0 | minimec: still no luck... | 19:16 |
infest | i need to know which went failed at the boot process.. | 19:16 |
Invisionfree | ArthurArchnix: Driver"i810" -> Driver"intel"?? | 19:16 |
Pirate_Hunter | skarface: probably is going to try changing it and see what happens or better dwnlaod an openbox theme | 19:16 |
niklas_ | How do I test my surround sound? It does exist a command for that... | 19:16 |
ArthurArchnix | Invisionfree: Yeah... but there should be some space there... like Driver "intel" | 19:16 |
Rewt | is flash fixed yet? | 19:16 |
Invisionfree | There is in gedit, ArthurArchnix :p | 19:16 |
minimec | chris0: This is my xorg.conf. You see that I also have a lot of input devices... http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59953/ | 19:17 |

Tooommi | infest: try pressing ctrl+alt+f1 while booting | 19:21 |
ArthurArchnix | BarryToeman: No, just imported from a camera. I dunno. It has an avi extension. | 19:21 |
ArthurArchnix | BarryToeman: is that dv? | 19:21 |
raw-bin | Greets. My gutsy box has a problem. gnome-keyring-daemon seems to stop by itself. Its in the start programs at startup list but doesn't seem to. Any clues ? | 19:21 |
BarryToeman | ArthurArchnix: usually, but it depends on the video camera. I don't use kino much, but it might be using ffmpeg right now to convert your video to a DV avi. | 19:22 |

RochJer | Hello - I wanted to know if new Ubuntu 8.04 is ready to use - what's your opinion if I can use it earlier or wait until april 2008 | 19:51 |
Jack_Sparrow | kurtgod, I need the pastebin number | 19:51 |
minimec | chris1: Do you get some events? | 19:51 |
chris1 | minimec: yes | 19:51 |
Cordis | I will be offline to try this option I will be back | 19:51 |
kurtgod | ok | 19:51 |
BinaryFu | RochJer: When it's released, it'll be ready. And even then, I give it about a week for any minor bugs to be ironed out personally. | 19:52 |
chris1 | minimec: they all send events, but they're not recognized by firefox | 19:52 |
foldart | mabus: yes, but usually vnc doesn't work that way (usually connects to an existing session). There's probably some way to set that up though but not known to me sorry. | 19:52 |
FastZ | Jack_Sparrow: it's possible since the repos are there, but they are commented out and I'm not sure what it was that I had installed, if I in fact installed anything from there in the first place | 19:52 |
Jack_Sparrow | FastZ, they are not there by accident.. and I can assure you .. that is where your problems started | 19:52 |
minimec | chris1: ok... The story os not finished ;) | 19:52 |
FastZ | roger that | 19:52 |
Jack_Sparrow | !debian | 19:52 |
ubotu | Ubuntu and Debian are closely related. Ubuntu builds on the foundations of Debian architecture and infrastructure, with a different community and release process. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/relationship - Remember, !repositories meant for Debian should NOT be used on Ubuntu! | 19:52 |

Chipsa964 | Karsyth did you see the video? | 19:54 |

BinaryFu | Okay, anyone who can help with this Nautilus problem: I can't click on anything on my desktop, nor right click the desktop for a menu. I can open Nautilus (75% of the time) and I can go from one folder to another, but if the folder contains anything OTHER than more folders, it locks up tight and I have to kill it. Any suggestions on where to start to fix this? I have attempted: removing nautilus and reinstalling it, removing ~/.nautilus | 19:54 |
chris1 | minimec: what I've seen is the forward/back buttons do exactly that, and the scroll wheel side to side scrolls left and right. | 19:54 |

BinaryFu | Okay, anyone who can help with this Nautilus problem: I can't click on anything on my desktop, nor right click the desktop for a menu. I can open Nautilus (75% of the time) and I can go from one folder to another, but if the folder contains anything OTHER than more folders, it locks up tight and I have to kill it. Any suggestions on where to start to fix this? I have attempted: removing nautilus and reinstalling it, removing ~/.nautilus | 20:04 |
mSalihYildirim | now it says forbidden page | 20:04 |
hr|Starbucks | (ArthurArchnix): what? ^^ whats that | 20:04 |
Pirate_Hunter | Is there a way to get a desktop terminal that is actually transparent? | 20:04 |
ArthurArchnix | Pirate_Hunter: Use xfce | 20:04 |
^u^ | Pirate_Hunter, it isn't teal transparency - but a "fake" one | 20:04 |
hr|Starbucks | (ArthurArchnix): im german ^^ | 20:04 |
BinaryFu | Pirate_Hunter: You can using compiz-fusion. | 20:04 |
minimec | chris1: still here? You may change the cope pointer to your touchpad, as maybe the G5 is not always plugged. That means "SendCoreEvents" "true" for the G5 | 20:04 |
Black_Magic | amenado, well i cannot directly paste it im using my Desktop computer to talk in the channel my labtop is beside me.. | 20:04 |
Pirate_Hunter | pike_: ok could you tel me if there is another terminal app that i cna use that gives off transparency? | 20:04 |

Dfhaii | Jack_Sparrow: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59961/ that's my /etc/apt/sources | 20:06 |
Pirate_Hunter | ^u^: isnt theer another terminal app that i cna use that gives off transparency without compiz or berryl? | 20:06 |
BinaryFu | Pirate_Hunter: Then no, there's no way to get true transparency effects. Only "pseudo-transparent" effects, by going into the terminal's options and changing it to transparancy. | 20:06 |
BinaryFu | *transparency | 20:06 |
^u^ | Pirate_Hunter, from what I know - no... | 20:06 |

Jack_Sparrow | Dfhaii, Yes.. looks like deb ftp://ftp.nerim.net/debian-marillat/ unstable main is going to end up being the source of your problems | 20:09 |
orionjoe | i uninstalled with --purge but there are still wine folders under the applications menu | 20:09 |

Dfhaii | arse, any suggestions? | 20:10 |
DieseL`nix | BinaryFu, thing is i'm 1000% sure i've had vlc plugin working before | 20:10 |

Jack_Sparrow | Dfhaii, not really, especially as you probably dont know what you installed from there and probably dont have a backup prior to that installation | 20:10 |
hr|Starbucks | (ArthurArchnix): nope i dont think so .. | 20:11 |
Karsyth | amendado: for example under uname -r im supposed to put in what my kernel type is, but i dont know what to put in for the other things | 20:11 |
Karsyth | amenado: honestly its kind of hard to explain | 20:11 |
Dfhaii | Jack_Sparrow: that line in sources is commented out | 20:11 |
BinaryFu | orionjoe: sudo aptitude purge wine and then sudo aptitude install wine? | 20:11 |

CppIsWeird | i deleted a mess of files accidently on ext3. from the research ive done for the past two days, the best shot I have of recovering anything from ext3 is a filesystem corruption or some such like that. recovering deleted files on ext3 is about as likely as aliens landing on the planet tommorrow. Is this a correct assumption? | 20:11 |
Jack_Sparrow | Dfhaii, it is now.. but something added it.. and was most likely installed from it or it would not be in there.. even if rem'd out | 20:11 |
Karsyth | amenado: that guide explains to me how to install it, but for certain parts im supposed to put specifics according to what my pc has, like my uname -r, and my user name | 20:12 |
ArthurArchnix | hr|Starbucks: Ok.. well, things aren't what I thought they were. You should pop in a live cd, mount your hard-drive, and edit fstab. Change all the 1's and 2's at the end of each line to 0, and remove the mount ro line from the / partition. | 20:12 |
amenado | Karsyth-> so you are trying to compile a driver? | 20:12 |
Karsyth | amenado: i think so | 20:12 |
BinaryFu | orionjoe: Under "applications"? As in the menu? | 20:12 |
orionjoe | yes | 20:12 |
Kumool | how do i use irc on pidgin? | 20:12 |
Dfhaii | i can't believe that is the fault Jack_Sparrow, a huge amount of applications have failed | 20:12 |
BinaryFu | orionjoe: It doesn't remove those clean unless you "uninstall" them via wine. Best bet is to edit your menu and delete them. | 20:12 |
MilitantPotato | Kumool: add an IRC account | 20:12 |
Jack_Sparrow | Kumool, not the best choice.. try xchat, or konversation or irissi | 20:12 |
Karsyth | amenado: im mostly having trouble with the gedit Makefile part | 20:12 |
hr|Starbucks | ArthurArchnix: can u tell me what i have to type in .. cauz im a noob ^^ i think i told you so far | 20:13 |

Dfhaii | t'is a bit of a pain in the tits, oh well | 20:14 |
Kumool | Jack_Sparrow, i use xchat but im just asking how to do it, i mean pidgin is the default app for messaging | 20:14 |
Dfhaii | i shall get my kit off here and reinstall at some point | 20:14 |
BinaryFu | orionjoe: Yep, same suggestion. Make sure .wine is gone when you purge, and then remove the links showing in your menu manually. Then do your install. | 20:14 |
orionjoe | ok, thanks | 20:14 |
Jack_Sparrow | Kumool, for messaging it is great. for irc chat.. it leaves much to be desired | 20:14 |

amenado | murlidhar-> if it does not, do you trust the site where you got that source from? | 20:22 |

Kalamarencu | BluesDriv1, download and burn GPARTED live that helps you with formatting and partitioning the HDD(S) | 20:23 |
minimec | BluesDriv1: You don't need to... auso apt get install Kubuntu-desktop, then sudo Apt-get remove ubuntu-desktop, then apt-get autoclean | 20:24 |
php_penguin | lancerock : eg, gtksudo gedit "/media/sdb1/users/Danny/Documents/Text Files/file.txt" | 20:24 |
murlidhar | amenado, it does not have source file for linux but for windows and OSX . However this application is based on JAVA. | 20:24 |
amenado | DOOM_NX-> were you using an application using that avi when deleting? know which application | 20:24 |
Kalamarencu | BluesDriv1, then download and burn Kubuntu 7.10 from ubuntu.com | 20:24 |

Lainy | What should I do if I posted on forums and no one replied? | 20:24 |
BluesDriv1 | so get gparted, burn it, and then get Kubuntu and burn it? | 20:25 |
Lainy | Should I reply to my own post or what? | 20:25 |
Lainy | I really need help, but it's already on the second page with 0 replies. | 20:25 |

Karsyth | amenado: know anything that might fix this? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59965/ | 20:25 |
Photocopy | BluesDriv1: The sudo apt get install Kubuntu-desktop and remove ubuntu-desktop metod is faster. Besides tat the two OSes are the same... this would take about ten minutes or less without burning... do this method. | 20:25 |
DOOM_NX | BinaryFu, shift+delete | 20:25 |
MilitantPotato | BluesDriv1: at what point does it error? | 20:25 |
marjan_ | where can i download drivers for usb | 20:25 |
Kalamarencu | BluesDriv1, Gparted is a tool - live cd that helps you partition and format the HDD if you want a clean installation | 20:25 |
BluesDriv1 | when I go to boot it without the live CD | 20:25 |
ogre | is 17Gb of free space too much to add to ubuntu? will it damage files? i want to delete windows and run strictly ubuntu | 20:25 |
MilitantPotato | BluesDriv1: before the login screen? During the loading of the OS where the bar moves across or...? | 20:26 |
amenado | DOOM_NX-> try to see which pid your file explorer is assuming you have not closed it yet..and from there you have to dig through /proc/pidoffilebrowser and see if the file you deleted is in that cache | 20:26 |
Photocopy | ogre: How can you have too much free space? | 20:26 |
BinaryFu | iDN: I'm not sure. I've been having odd experiences with errors in Nautilus for about the past month, but very few and far between...finally it's given up the ghost, and apparently something, somewhere hidden away, is performing evil experiments on any new install of it I put in...makes a man want to go to the KDE side. :/ | 20:26 |
Kalamarencu | ogre, i have it installed here in 8 GB and at home at 40 GB | 20:26 |
BluesDriv1 | before the login and before the loading of the OS where the bar moves across I think | 20:26 |

robboplus | does anyone know how to fix a problem with ubuntu which won't allow more than ~1000 connections on the port? i tried everything... my ircd won't accept more and shit starts to happen, like port is closed at times, etc. people can't connect | 20:27 |
ogre | Photocopy: is it ppc or x86 ? | 20:27 |
HardyOne | Photocopy, if it is intel based use the desktop ce ppc versiond or else get th | 20:27 |
amenado | Karsyth-> Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg) <-- your compilation did not do well? maybe did not link to a library it needed? | 20:27 |
iDN | BinaryFu: KDE? That's a major step. Especially when most people I know hate KDE. :) Wait a second, I'll try to find a solution. | 20:27 |
^u^ | Lainy, wait a few min then ask it again | 20:27 |
BinaryFu | iDN: Bless you. | 20:27 |
Photocopy | ogre: its an iMac jesus... | 20:27 |

BinaryFu | Photocopy: Whoa, does that come with the iCross and iCrown? | 20:28 |
Photocopy | HardyOne: What is the desktop ce ppc version? It doesnt have a ppc processor.... its an iMac | 20:28 |
BluesDriv1 | militant? | 20:28 |
^u^ | !patience | Lainy | 20:28 |
Photocopy | BinaryFu: Ignored | 20:28 |
ubotu | Lainy: The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines | 20:28 |
ogre | Photocopy: well you need to know what chipset it uses. if its an intel cpu or power pc cpu | 20:28 |
Lainy | BinaryFu: 14 hours | 20:28 |
jussio1 | Lainy: its usually polite to bump only after 24 hours | 20:28 |
amenado | Karsyth-> find the web site where you got that source and find out what it requires.. | 20:28 |
HardyOne | Photocopy, imac is apple get the ppc version | 20:28 |
Photocopy | ogre: The i stands for intel | 20:28 |

BinaryFu | Lainy: After 24, give it a bump. :) | 20:28 |
DOOM_NX | amenado, where do i look? | 20:28 |
robboplus | are there limits in ubuntu that will not allow more than 1000 established sessions on the port? | 20:29 |
Photocopy | HardyOne: The i literally stands for intel.. its called the iMac cause it has an intel processor. | 20:29 |
jin | I love firefox 3 :-) so much faster | 20:29 |
amenado | DOOM_NX-> look around there, in its subdirs to find out where it may have a cache | 20:29 |
ogre | Photocopy: ahh thats explains it (sorry im not a mac user) get desktop x86 version then | 20:29 |
HardyOne | Photocopy, then download the desktop iso x86 based | 20:29 |
Photocopy | ogre: Thanks, thats the one i need to pass off | 20:29 |
BluesDriv1 | well, I guess I'm just gonna stick with the gparted idea | 20:29 |
php_penguin | ooh just remembered ... the beta is out on Thursday :D | 20:29 |
amenado | DOOM_NX-> its not guaranteed it will be there, am just saying it may be ,,or maybe not..some apps keeps a cache | 20:30 |
HardyOne | in the future less attitude when asking for help would be nice Photocopy | 20:30 |
php_penguin | gaaaa the fucking Apple Air ads piss me off so bad | 20:30 |
Lainy | ubotu: Yes, I understand that. I do appreciate the help here and on the forums. I was just wondering when I could bump. | 20:30 |

kexp903 | Hi i have a intel GMA 950 and the graphics does not work but it does work in Vista what should I do? | 20:31 |
iDN | BinaryFu: Do you get any error messages at the 25 percent cases when nautilus don't start? | 20:31 |
amenado | DOOM_NX-> oh well...you're SOL then.. | 20:31 |
DieseL`nix | BinaryFu, this is silly, media connectivity thing opens it in vlc | 20:32 |

BluesDriv1 | ok | 20:32 |
DieseL`nix | just get jumpy videos | 20:32 |
BluesDriv1 | so the other computer isn't here | 20:32 |
kexp903 | sorry it's intel GMA 965 what can I do to fix this problem? | 20:32 |
BinaryFu | iDN: I haven't gotten anything out of it even when I try to run it in bash, it just goes until it stops, it shows that it's taking up a small amount of ram and cpu usage at the time of the "crash" and waiting just shows that it's not responding at all, and I have to force quit or kill/killall. | 20:32 |
BluesDriv1 | How would I install Kubuntu without having another computer and using Ubuntu off of the live CD? | 20:32 |
Photocopy | ogre: Not mine, i know, I ordered them for these two friends, one asked for one for a mac and one for their pc with an amd... didnt know which computer gets which cd... thanks for filling me in. | 20:32 |
Photocopy | ogre: Their imac i mean.. thanks again. | 20:33 |
BinaryFu | iDN: But now, even that doesn't help, the next opening of it gives the same results. | 20:33 |
amenado | BluesDriv1-> is ubuntu already installed? and you just want to add kubuntu features? | 20:33 |

StefanW | BluesDriv1: there's a kubuntu live cd :) | 20:33 |
iDN | OK, BinaryFu | 20:33 |
BluesDriv1 | Ubuntu is installed, but it won't boot up by itself. So I want to have a clean Kubuntu install | 20:33 |
hr|Starbucks | (jamalf): do you know how? | 20:34 |
jamalf | hr|Starbucks, uhh, change the fstab? sort of =\ | 20:34 |
DieseL`nix | anyone here got vlc plugin working in firefox? | 20:34 |
BinaryFu | DieseL`nix: That's messed up. Personally, I just use the xine plugin and unplug addon in firefox, download the damned things and watch them on my desktop when they want to be persnickity. | 20:34 |
amenado | BluesDriv1-> what happens when you boot? you get errors? what do you mean by itself? | 20:34 |
hr|Starbucks | (jamalf): i need to change all the 1ns and the 2s to 0 | 20:34 |
DieseL`nix | well i was hoping that media plugin thing had a download option BinaryFu | 20:35 |
hr|Starbucks | (jamalf): its more like editing the fstab | 20:35 |
iDN | BinaryFu: Have you tried reinstalling nautilus? | 20:35 |
kexp903 | diesel'nix is it selected in Synaptic package manager?? | 20:35 |
BluesDriv1 | I get errors that seem to involve me having hardware problems. And by itself I mean running without the Live CD | 20:35 |
BinaryFu | DieseL`nix: Search for Unplug in firefox's addons. It works fine. | 20:35 |
DieseL`nix | vlc plugin, erm yes? | 20:35 |
jamalf | hr|Starbucks, Yeah, press alt+f2 and type gksudo gedit /etc/fstab | 20:35 |
hotdog003 | Hello. My time zone is exactly one hour off, even though my time is correct and "Synchronize with Internet Servers" is on. It seems to be the time zone... How might I fix this? | 20:36 |
DieseL`nix | thats a downloader? still kind of annoying that i cant watched videos inside firefox | 20:36 |
BinaryFu | iDN: Indeed. I have removed Nautilus (and about 5 other programs including ubuntu-desktop in the process) using aptitude purge nautilus and then reinstalled the items removed (including nautilus) with aptitude install | 20:36 |
hr|Starbucks | (jamalf): ty very much | 20:36 |
iDN | Okay. | 20:36 |
BinaryFu | DieseL`nix: Yes, it's a downloader, if there's media on the webpage, you can use it to see the links and dl it. | 20:36 |

DieseL`nix | grr this is so frustrating, i know i've had this work before!! | 20:38 |
DOOM_NX | lol | 20:38 |

iDN | BinaryFu: Most of what is said there is unrelated to your problem, but the problem is similar. | 20:40 |
BinaryFu | Ayabara: Go into System - Preferences - Preferred Applications and change Rhythmbox to something else. | 20:40 |
Seveas | HardyOne, compiz and compizconfig-settings-manager | 20:40 |

HardyOne | Seveas, thank you :) you married yet ? | 20:40 |

minimec | BluesDriv1: Did you activate the video restricted driver? | 20:42 |

iDN | BinaryFu: Now that I think about it, this post is compeletely unrelated. | 20:42 |
iDN | completely* | 20:42 |
BinaryFu | iDN: I wonder if there's such a thing as the libmapping he referred to in there in Gutsy? (A quick check in apt shows it's not, so perhaps a similar name?) I'm going to do some Syn browsing. | 20:42 |
BluesDriv1 | minimec: I don't think so | 20:42 |
Black_Magic | amenado, ive even tried to add OpenDNS to my thing to try and get it to work no such luck.. | 20:42 |
Karsyth | amenado: alright i've worked around a few things and now im getting this error "FATAL: Module xpa not found." so im assuming i need to get the xpa module. thing is i have no idea how | 20:42 |

minimec | BluesDriv1: So.. during the boot process the screen changes to console mode? | 20:43 |
BluesDriv1 | minimec: it says my hardware does not need a restricted driver, but it's using just a generic video driver right now. That's what I was in the process of doing | 20:43 |
BinaryFu | iDN: Is there a way for me to set up a debug for nautilus so I can check a more verbose state as it's running? | 20:43 |
Briareos_ | can i configure applications to always load in a specific workspace? (like in kde)? | 20:43 |
iDN | BinaryFu: Be my guest. :) You were my first "client" today, hopefully I'll be able to help others better than the "help" I've given you. :) | 20:43 |
BluesDriv1 | minimec: console mode? if you mean the command lines, yes | 20:43 |
amenado | Karsyth i assume so, sometime you have to dig up info from the site where you got the source from, hopefully it gives you some clue of whats needed | 20:43 |
minimec | BluesDriv1: Can you login? | 20:43 |
Karsyth | amenado: cant find it anywhere around the site. ive been searching around. is there any apt-get i can do or anything like that? | 20:44 |

BinaryFu | brb all, I just removed the nautilus CD burner program, and I'm going to see if I have a responsive nautilus again. | 20:47 |
amenado | Black_Magic-> odd that your iwconfig does not show ath0 | 20:48 |
Briareos_ | can i configure applications to initally load in a specific workspace? | 20:48 |
amenado | BluesDriv1-> you can just re-install on top of existing one, | 20:48 |
Black_Magic | amenado, ath0 is the last one.. | 20:48 |
minimec | BluesDriv1: This will not bring you anything, as both system are the same. It's just the windows environment that changes. | 20:48 |

tomtommy | is there a application or way to Adding a "Secure Delete" feature to shred files that are in the trash can? | 20:51 |
BinaryFu | iDN: I doubt it's in my home settings, thankfully, since I'd removed .nautilus and .gnome2 prior to this in an attempt to repair it. | 20:51 |
amenado | Black_Magic-> does it mean you also blocked off your ESSID:(confidential) Nickname:"" <-- "" i assume it is blank? | 20:51 |
Black_Magic | amenado, i put ESSID:(Confidential) | 20:52 |
Black_Magic | amenado, yea | 20:52 |
amenado | Black_Magic-> is there associated word there? | 20:52 |
enl810d | Hi what's the difference between downloading an i686 linux distro and an X86_64 distro? | 20:52 |
MurielGodoi | magnetron: It is an EC680 Analog TV Tuner (1164:0601) | 20:52 |
amenado | Black-> nvm..i checked one system and no associated ... | 20:52 |
BinaryFu | enl810d: 32 bit vs. 64 bit | 20:52 |
Black_Magic | amenado, its assosiated | 20:53 |
Black_Magic | amenado, if it wasnt where i put Yea:Right: it would show not-assosiated | 20:53 |
tomtommy | is there a application or way to Adding a "Secure Delete" feature to shred files that are in the trash can? | 20:53 |

LiquidIKon | I am comeing over from windows and am a noob when it comes to linux was wondering with that said I am looking for a good firewall and ideas? | 20:54 |
=== zz_ is now known as TameRr | ||
metanil | any idea to revert it back | 20:54 |
amenado | Black_Magic-> you can not ping 192.168.2.1 ? how did you get the address 192.168.2.3 ? | 20:54 |
BinaryFu | tomtommy: In Linux, when you delete something, it's generally non-recoverable. | 20:54 |
BinaryFu | tomtommy: It's not like Windows. | 20:54 |
tomtommy | BinaryFu, thats not what I asked | 20:54 |
tomtommy | BinaryFu, answer my question plz. I didnt ask for your opinion :P | 20:54 |
tomtommy | BinaryFu, do you know how to add Shred to Nauitlus ? | 20:55 |
tomtommy | y.n? | 20:55 |
Black_Magic | amenado, i think the 192.168.2.3 is the routers local IP i can ping that the (192.168.2.3) | 20:55 |
kexp903_ | Is there anyone who knows how to make a GMA 965 to have conpiz in Ubuntu?? | 20:55 |
enl810d | BinaryFu: I have an AMD 64 Processor, which version would you recommend downloading, the i686 or the x64?:D thnx | 20:55 |
amenado | Black_Magic-> are you using dhcp? or static? your router is 192.168.1.254? | 20:55 |
Black_Magic | amenado: i get 64bytes from ect ect ect over and over agasin | 20:55 |
Black_Magic | amenado, dhcp | 20:55 |
BinaryFu | tomtommy: Well, I suppose...and this is just me being silly... | 20:55 |
BinaryFu | tomtommy: But if I wanted to use a SECURE DELETE program, I would probably pull up Synaptic Package Manager and do a search for SECURE DELETE | 20:56 |
amenado | Black_Magic-> re acquire an ip address for you ath0 it does not look like you are in same subnet as the router | 20:56 |
BinaryFu | tomtommy: Which, ironically, would lead me to a program called...secure-delete. | 20:56 |
tomtommy | BinaryFu, what u talking about???? | 20:57 |
Black_Magic | amenado, hmm how would i do that? | 20:57 |
BinaryFu | tomtommy: You're running ubuntu, right? | 20:57 |
amenado | Black_Magic-> and please drop the attitude okay? im trying to assist you here..not to gather info from you | 20:57 |
DOOM_NX | if the avi was still playing i could recover it through process id and file descriptor no? :S | 20:57 |
rxndx78 | hello all | 20:57 |
tomtommy | BinaryFu, you are trolling or not listening. I alrwady have SHRED for SECURE DELITION! but my question is... HOW CAN I ADD IT TO NAUITULUS?>?????? | 20:57 |
Black_Magic | amenado: what attitude...? | 20:57 |
rxndx78 | having some serious issues with Tor, Privoxy and Vidalia... | 20:58 |
amenado | DOOM_NX-> thats what i was getting at earlier..but 1ith 700meg..tuff to recover | 20:58 |
=== |muelli| is now known as Muelli | ||
Black_Magic | amenado, i just said hmm how would i do that asking how to do it?... | 20:58 |
byte_code | tomtommy: there is a "shredder" script available with the Nautilus scritps. install that, and you get a context menu entry | 20:58 |
DOOM_NX | amenado, in fact that file never played... but oh well, i'll redownload it :) | 20:58 |
tomtommy | byte_code, what script? | 20:58 |
Black_Magic | amenado, didnt mean to make it sound like i had an attitude it was a question | 20:58 |
amenado | Black_Magic-> sudo dhclient ath0 | 20:58 |
DOOM_NX | thanks again for all the help | 20:58 |
tomtommy | byte_code, how I install it? | 20:58 |
Karsyth | amenado: quick question, is this command "karsyth@K4:~/xpad$ sudo modprobe -r xpad" supposed to take a while to run? im asking because all it has done is gone to a new blank line with no indication of anything happening | 20:58 |
lordmagne | I can't install anything, it says my hardware (i386) isn't supported. This seems only to be the case with the supported applications. Also I cant install codecs because it wants me to confirm but then it doesn't work anyway... I cant even play mp3 files! | 20:58 |
BinaryFu | ... | 20:59 |
rxndx78 | Neither Privoxy or Tor are showing up in the system monitor and when I have them "running" and torbutton "Active" it just uses my regular internet connection... any suggestions? | 20:59 |
BinaryFu | I am so tempted to just use the old addage... | 20:59 |
gustavo | ola | 20:59 |
amenado | Karsyth-> a no response (ie no error) on linux is usually a good sign.meaing if you get a prompt back its okay and it accepted it | 20:59 |
byte_code | tomtommy: install nautilus-scripts that creates the context menu entry within nautilus to call the "shred" app. | 20:59 |
Karsyth | amenado: it went to a new BLANK line though, with no option of typing a new command yet | 21:00 |
tomtommy | byte_code, E: Couldn't find package nautilus-scripts | 21:00 |
minimec | tomtommy: What BinaryFu tries to tell you is, that for him (and for me) a shift+del does the same thing as your software ;) | 21:00 |
Karsyth | amenado: does that mean its still working? | 21:00 |
amenado | Karsyth-> blank line or a prompt? | 21:00 |
Karsyth | amenado: blank line | 21:00 |
tomtommy | minimec, how is shift-del different from del? | 21:00 |
amenado | Karsyth nope it proly failed, loading a module should not take that loong | 21:00 |
tomtommy | byte_code, E: Couldn't find package nautilus-scripts | 21:00 |
shiv | I need to make a bootable iso of my system with the /home folder in it. Which one of these commands should I use? http://www.ubuntugeek.com/creating-custom-ubuntu-live-cd-with-remastersys.html | 21:01 |
minimec | tomtommy: because shift+del ignores your .trash ;) | 21:01 |
gilan | hi | 21:01 |
Karsyth | amenado: is there a way i can run it in like a debugging mode so i can see what its doing? | 21:01 |
amenado | Black_Magic-> did it acquire a new ip address? | 21:01 |
minimec | tomtommy: it simply deletes it ... | 21:01 |
gilan | how to install elisa 0.3.5 in hardy | 21:01 |
tomtommy | minimec, but when I empty trash, doesnt it do a perm delete similar to shift-del? | 21:01 |
gilan | Elisa media center | 21:01 |
byte_code | tomtommy: sorry - it's called "nautilus-script-manager" (no quotes, naturally) | 21:01 |
amenado | Karsyth-> not that im aware of when loading a module via modprobe, i dont know of a debug mode | 21:01 |
Sandra24 | I'm setting up a chroot jail with rssh, and it says here that rssh_chroot_helper needs the SUID perm. http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_SFTP_Server_(chrooted,_without_shell)#rssh_chroot_helper_.26_suid | 21:02 |
minimec | tomtommy: Yes... But some files I delete directly... some not... | 21:02 |
tomtommy | byte_code, I installed nautilus-script-manager, opened Nautilus, right clicked on a file, but there is no shred option. What gives? | 21:02 |
Sandra24 | When I add the SUID perm, rssh_chroot_helper doesn't seem to be called at all | 21:02 |
tomtommy | minimec, how can I add shred to trash can? | 21:02 |
Sandra24 | if I take it away it gets called again | 21:02 |
Black_Magic | amenado, first few liones in that was wifi0: unknown address type 801 then at the bottom bound to 192.168.2.3 - renwal in 94 ect ect seconds | 21:02 |
ArthurArchnix | tomtommy: You sound like you're interested in secure deletion. Once you learn a bit more you'll probably come to realize that there are two levels of security. A fully encrypted system, and shift+delete. Shred is the lazy man's security. Does really add much more than just shift+delete because on journalled file systems it's impossible to be sure you've overwritten all traces of the file. Thus, shredding is false security. So either you system is ha | 21:03 |
tomtommy | are you all noobs here today? Doesnt anyone know how to add Shred to Trashcan? :) hehe | 21:03 |
Black_Magic | amenado, and at one point it says sending on socket/fallback | 21:03 |
amenado | Black_Magic-> are you far from that AP? it does have an ethernet port right? | 21:03 |
ArthurArchnix | doesn't* | 21:03 |
tomtommy | ArthurArchnix, I know all that and I use wipe and Shred regularly! but my question is.... HOW CAN I ADD SHRED TO TRASHCAN? | 21:03 |
minimec | tomtommy: search with you favotite tool for it. We continue to use shift+delete ... | 21:03 |
Sandra24 | Here's the relavent part of my syslog, http://dpaste.com/39873/, :47 is with SUID, :21 is without | 21:03 |
byte_code | tomtommy: you should have a menu entry "scripts" with a sub menu, one of which is "File System Management" -> Shred, but you may need to restart nautilus to get it to appear - I found logging out and in again best, | 21:04 |
Black_Magic | amenado, no im not far | 21:04 |
scales11 | hey all quick question. windows has an app to free up disc space (stuff that has just accumulated over time) is there something like that in linux? | 21:04 |
brandonc503 | can anyone help me find why my internet speeds change so much? from 200kbps to 7000kbps. | 21:04 |
amenado | Black_Magic-> if near enuff, can you plugged in a cat 5 cable to that AP and use your eth0 for it? | 21:04 |
tomtommy | ArthurArchnix, i didnt ask for your opinion about the security of Shred! I asked.... HOW CAN I ADD SHRED TO TRASHCAN? | 21:04 |
Sandra24 | what's the SUID perm do, and why might it prevent the script from executing? | 21:04 |
amenado | Black_Magic-> disable wifi for now while using the ethernet eth0 | 21:04 |
BinaryFu | minimec: Actually, I'm lazy, I just went into gconf-editor and told it to give me a delete bypass on my options menu. :D | 21:04 |
Jack_Sparrow | tomtommy, Please be polite .. dont repeat and use caps like that | 21:04 |
tomtommy | you are all a bunch of noobs I see :) nobody has a idea :) | 21:04 |

amenado | tomtommy-> im a noob you're a noob cant we just be happy and get along? | 21:05 |

tomtommy | amenado, yes we can :-) | 21:05 |

Jack_Sparrow | tomtommy, NEver used it.. and I am hardly a new user.. we frown upon that term in here | 21:05 |
amenado | Black_Magic-> i dont understand, you can not use an ethernet cable? | 21:06 |
bod_ | hey guys,.,. i doubt this will be possible,.,. but can the desktop be a mpg rather than an image format? so it plays a movie all the time? | 21:06 |
tomtommy | Jack_Sparrow, what term? | 21:06 |
Jack_Sparrow | noob | 21:06 |
tomtommy | Jack_Sparrow, define noob | 21:06 |

Pirate_Hunter | amenado: its my fault all my fault i shouldve suspected the package it installed some next virus scanner (yeha right), changed my browser page, and blocked a lot of sites as well as messing with host file... havent seen that in a long time at least i dont do much on vbox just like to keep it there :) | 21:08 |

Black_Magic | amenado, nope nothing i can do with those.. there shorted out | 21:12 |
ArthurArchnix | Jack_Sparrow: probably not good enough, because he doesn't want to right-click shred, he wants to right-click on the trash can only and shred that. | 21:12 |
Black_Magic | amenado, and it doesnt even have USB ports .... | 21:12 |

bluefoxx | BinaryFu: im looking for something like a WYSIWYG editor, so i dont have to go back and take a refresher course on html pr go and learn css/java...more or less anyways. i still know how to write a basic web page, but thats about it >> | 21:24 |

amenado | Black_Magic-> can you paste your sudo iptables -vL result? <-- anything yet? | 21:26 |
Jack_Sparrow | jescis, Please be patient.. | 21:26 |
Black_Magic | amenado, i was just trying to tell you that its working in other Installs is all nothing about complaing atleast not what i meant and yea im pasting it | 21:26 |
Cannon | Jack_Sparrow: i just went through that and entered defaults for most of em | 21:26 |
bluefoxx | BinaryFu: tyvm, will check that out[i can apt-get install it right?] | 21:26 |
Cannon | you think I can reboot the os now Jack_Sparrow? | 21:26 |
BinaryFu | bluefoxx: Well, you should start using aptitude, but yeah. I'd just sudo aptitude install amaya | 21:27 |
Cannon | brb | 21:27 |
Jack_Sparrow | Cannon, yes also note sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf will let you manually edit that file | 21:27 |
KalEl | hi... how can i de-install an alpha version of ubuntu hardy heron? unfortunately my friend has installed it... at that time i did not know that it was not released yet | 21:27 |
Cordis | xp_prg: tim Knoppix worked | 21:27 |
jescis | I'm trying. But if I don't answer back it's because I had to go. I have to learn the fiddle at 4:30 CST | 21:27 |
BinaryFu | bluefoxx: And that should get you started...it seemed a little...weird to me, but then, I'm used to writing html in gedit. ^_^ | 21:27 |

bluefoxx | BinaryFu: kk, thanks[i allways just do apt-get, is there any advantage to using aptitude install?] | 21:28 |
BinaryFu | anteaya: I've had good results from mplayer myself, but I believe xine works fine for it too. | 21:28 |
xp_prg | cool Cordis! | 21:28 |
anteaya | BinaryFu, thank you | 21:28 |
Cordis | it worked | 21:28 |
Cordis | thanks! | 21:28 |
BinaryFu | bluefoxx: It's a bit more stable, if I recall, and they're trying to move to aptitude over apt-get now if I recall correctly. Of course, my fave way is still using synaptic, that's how I find a lot of new toys by browsing. | 21:29 |

Dr_Link | So, I have a Sound Blaster sound card, and I'm getting nothing but ... well, nothing. Speakers are plugged in, just migrated from Windows to Ubuntu. | 21:29 |
shiv | I unmounted my ntfs partition how do i remount it? | 21:29 |
Dr_Link | No sound. | 21:29 |
Dr_Link | I know for fact that the speakers aren't muted. | 21:30 |
Dr_Link | Volume is 100%. | 21:30 |
KalEl | hi... should i de-install an alpha version of ubuntu hardy heron? unfortunately my friend has installed it... at that time i did not know that hardy was not released yet | 21:30 |
LjL | KalEl, that would mean reinstalling Gutsy from scratch, you know | 21:30 |
KalEl | ohh... that's bad | 21:30 |
rainwalker | with openoffice, what's the difference between using the java runtime environment and not using it? | 21:30 |
BinaryFu | Dr_Link: right click on your speaker icon and hit open volume control and tell us what it says in the title bar...like mine says: Volume Control: Nvidia CK804 (Alsa mixer) | 21:31 |
Dr_Link | KalEl: If it hasn't gone unstable on you yet, then you're fine. | 21:31 |

byte_code | BinaryFu: your nautilus lockup-problems - could it have anything to do with file icon previewing or the codecs being used for mp3 files? I'm just wondering - but I have had a similar issue with remote files causing it to take a while | 21:31 |
LjL | Dr_Link: well not quite necessarily, just recently there was a huge libc breakage in the updates | 21:31 |
rainwalker | LjL as in disabling it will make it load faster or slower? | 21:31 |
Cordis | Yes | 21:31 |

tomtommy | do I need to run and load a firewall in Ubuntu? | 21:31 |
N0s25 | ? | 21:31 |
encryptz | is there a localinstall for apt that resolves dependancies? similar to yum localinstall for rpm-based distros? | 21:31 |
rainwalker | tomtommy: ubuntu comes with one | 21:32 |
LjL | KalEl: but yes, i do suppose you could just keep hardy, cross your fingers and hope it doesn't break for you, rather than installing Gutsy from scratch again | 21:32 |
tomtommy | or does a firewall get loaded automatically? | 21:32 |
LjL | !firewall > tomtommy (tomtommy, see the private message from Ubotu) | 21:32 |
Jack_Sparrow | !firewall | tomtommy | 21:32 |
ubotu | tomtommy: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE). | 21:32 |
tomtommy | rainwalker, how do I tell it to load? | 21:32 |

encryptz | kbrooks: cool. thx. is this installed by default on a bare-bones ubuntu system? | 21:32 |
Jack_Sparrow | tomtommy, Are you trying to specifically open ports for some reason.. or is it just a windows type habit to run a firewall | 21:32 |
tomtommy | LjL, do I need to load iptables every time I load Ubuntu? | 21:33 |
xp_prg | Cordis hello, what is it you want to do now? | 21:33 |
BinaryFu | Dr_Link: What type of sound card is it specifically? SB Live! or something like that? | 21:33 |
tomtommy | Jack_Sparrow, just have a firewall run in general | 21:33 |
kbrooks | encryptz, what metapackages did you install, if you manually installed any? | 21:33 |
shiv | I unmounted my ntfs partition how do i remount it? | 21:33 |
tomtommy | Jack_Sparrow, windows habit :P | 21:33 |
LjL | tomtommy, it depends what you want to do. | 21:33 |
Jack_Sparrow | tomtommy, grc.com shields up is a good web based scanner to help you understand ports | 21:33 |
encryptz | kbrooks: oh, just a theoreticall question is all | 21:33 |
BinaryFu | Dr_Link: Because I don't know of them using an intel chipset, and that sounds an aweful lot like perhaps the sound card from the motherboard... | 21:33 |
LjL | tomtommy: are you running any servers? do you intend to run any? | 21:33 |

kbrooks | encryptz, if you want a non-theoretical answer, please kindly answer my question. | 21:34 |
kbrooks | tomtommy, no | 21:34 |
tomtommy | LjL, only my personal PC. not servers | 21:34 |
tomtommy | Jack_Sparrow, ok thanks | 21:34 |
brand0con | tomtommy: no firewall necessary | 21:34 |
brand0con | long story short | 21:34 |
LjL | tomtommy: then i don't see a reason for a firewall | 21:34 |
kbrooks | tomtommy, servers need it, not desktops | 21:34 |
Jack_Sparrow | tomtommy, You are secure without adding an iptable manager.. new users seem to be more vulnerable when they misconfigure firestarter or guardddog than to just let the iptables do their job | 21:34 |
kbrooks | Jack_Sparrow, s/the iptables/defaults/ | 21:34 |
tomtommy | Jack_Sparrow, ok understood | 21:34 |

Coolguy64537 | how do install the ubuntu desktop from the internet???? | 21:35 |
kbrooks | tomtommy, it does not open any ports remotely | 21:35 |
BinaryFu | tomtommy: iptables is installed and running by default. If you wanted to be a bit paranoid, you could slap in Firestarter if you wanted a nice gui to allow ports or deny access to specific things, or to deny icmp, etc...it will alter your iptables config whenever it's up and running. | 21:35 |

BinaryFu | Dr_Link: Well, it's possible you still do have one on there...the best bet is to check your bios. My guess is, you have one, and it's still turned on by default in your bios, and since it's onboard, Linux is defaulting to that as your primary and the SB as your secondary. There's a way we can verify this without having you reboot though, in the Volume Control, click on File - Change Device and tell me what options are listed. :) | 21:41 |

Haegin | Coolguy64537: try replace nano with any other text editor (nano is the default terminal text editor on ubuntu) | 21:45 |
amenado | Black_Magic-> its your firewall thats preventing you from getting to the other host | 21:45 |

Rada | minimec: Nope, I can't do anything with it. I can't manipulate it, see it, anything... | 21:45 |

PriceChild | Vlet: yes. | 21:48 |
amenado | locolbd-> new install? maybe not complete..try to re-install | 21:48 |
Haegin | locolbd: check the hardware to ensure it is all compatible - search for your laptop and linux online to see if other ppl have seen these problems before | 21:48 |
Black_Magic | amenado, so whats the verdict the firewall is whats keeping me from using the internet...? | 21:48 |
Dr_Link | volume is turned up all the freakin' way. | 21:49 |
BinaryFu | Dr_Link: Trust me, you will want to disable that other one, reboot, and it will only see the one card. Half the programs are probably going to default to the intel until you do that. | 21:49 |
Haegin | Jezz: easy enough, 99% of the time it picks up the windows partition automatically | 21:49 |

Dr_Link | Jahromeo, yes. | 21:49 |

numpszi | Funcan: It eats 100% of CPU time :( | 22:10 |
Cpudan80 | Toznoshio: You can hook VMWare into an existing partition... although that sometimes results in undefined behavior | 22:11 |
Funcan | numpszi: Try kill -STOP | 22:11 |
phedramine | hi everyone | 22:11 |
Toznoshio | Cpudan80, can you point me to a good howto? | 22:11 |
numpszi | Funcan: no changes | 22:11 |
Cpudan80 | Toznoshio: I dont know to be exact --- but you could try #vmware | 22:11 |

cflopez | while trying to get the scanner to work, Brother MFC-8440, i messed up somewhere along the lines and now the darn thing doesnt print (which is more important than scanning), anybody care to give me a hand getting this thing at least printing again.... thx | 22:14 |
BinaryFu | alex-weej: It is indeed possible to burn them to DVD and install from them. | 22:14 |
Cpudan80 | BluesDrive: You want to mark for reinstallation -- they should already be installed | 22:14 |
BinaryFu | alex-weej: I would just suggest excellent media and a VERY slow burn to make sure there's no errors. | 22:14 |
Cpudan80 | BluesDrive: then you hit the apply button | 22:14 |
alex-weej | BinaryFu: just the normal way? ISO filesystems don't normally go on DVDs do they? | 22:14 |
Funcan | numpszi: Sorry, that's me out of suggestions :-( | 22:14 |
BinaryFu | alex-weej: Actually ISO = CD or DVD. I have DVD isos as well. :) | 22:15 |
BluesDrive | they're not. It just says mark for installation. And when I go to install it. It gives me those "will not be installed" messages | 22:15 |
Reenen | how can I get any of the MIDI stuff to work? The only way I can get a MIDI to play is through timidity, which isn't really mid... | 22:15 |

BinaryFu | alex-weej: Well, I've made my own Ubuntu distro, which wound up being like, 1.2gb in size, and burned that to DVD without a hiccup...save for the fact that you have to use QUALITY discs and a SLOW burn. :D | 22:16 |
michael__ | lilg111111: what do you mean "install" an external hard drive? | 22:16 |
Urthmover | plugging it in | 22:17 |

BinaryFu | lilg111111: Usually, you plug it in, and it will auto mount. It might take a second or two, and if it doesn't automatically give you an icon on your desktop, you might want to go into Places - Computer and see if it's listed in there. | 22:18 |
lilg111111 | binarydigit, its not in there either | 22:18 |
BluesDrive | Cpudan80: It won't let me mark anything basically. Because of those errors that I keep getting | 22:19 |

BinaryFu | lilg111111: For mounting NTFS on an external drive? | 22:48 |
minimec | jimmy_eire: I guess you might have to restart samba after plugging in the external device... | 22:48 |
lilg111111 | BinaryFu, yes and is there a specific jumper setting for the drive | 22:49 |
BinaryFu | lilg111111: It's possible to do, but it's going to take a bit of work to set it up...and I'm betting someone in here could probably walk you through it 100x easier than I could, because I'd have to read up on it on a website to start. :) | 22:49 |

jimmy_eire | minimec really? is there not a way to change the automount to automount a device with certain permissions? | 22:49 |
kditty | my gutsy gibbon install on my hp laptop stalls while loading up at 'loading blootooth services' how can i get past this? | 22:49 |

minimec | jimmy_eire: I don't no much about samba, but I don't know if samba detects external devices, when you plug them. | 22:51 |
BinaryFu | ^cyka^: There are a couple web page howtos that walk you through how to set it up so Ubuntu will actually automount NTFS for ya. But as I told lilg111111, it's complicated. :) | 22:51 |

BinaryFu | ^cyka^: Although most people cringe at the idea of having to reboot Linux, I have found that on rare occasions, especially when dealing with mount issues, it can help quite a bit. | 22:55 |

greasy_leftwing | in linux its recognised as a command so concatenating it confuses the command call | 23:23 |
bozukarob | I remember in previous versions of ubuntu you could sort of preview a audio file on mouse over, is there a way to re enable this? | 23:23 |
TaRDy | is the torrent program automatically configured? | 23:23 |
SonicEpsilon | Excuse me, I've just started using ubuntu & I'm trying to get XChat 2.8.4 to compile but I seem to be experiencing some difficulties. | 23:23 |
TaRDy | or do I need to do something special | 23:23 |
Jahromeo | tardy i just used bittorrent on my default install didnt have to change anything | 23:23 |
Jahromeo | altho i would change upload ratio if your con is slow | 23:23 |
=== veynom is now known as darklordveynom | ||
bsdnewb07 | after editting /etc/security/limits.conf how do i make the changes apply | 23:24 |
sbingner | SonicEpsilon, why are you compiling it? ... just apt-get install xchat | 23:24 |
Dr_Link | I installed a program into WINE, but it wouldn't uninstall, so I uninstalled WINE, and the WINE folder is still under the Applications menu. How do I remove this erroneous program and therefore the menu? | 23:24 |
Pelo | Nikke, http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/purekde | 23:24 |
Nikke | thanks Pelo | 23:24 |
bsdnewb07 | anyone know? | 23:24 |
SonicEpsilon | ok | 23:24 |
Pelo | Nikke, after that , you will want to sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop again, just to make sure no xcfe dependencies have been remored as well | 23:25 |
bozukarob | DRLINK; are you in gnome or kde? | 23:25 |
greasy_leftwing | bsdnewb07: try logging out and back in again | 23:25 |
byte_code | bozukarob: 1st, ensure you have the right codecs installed, e.g. mpg321 and vorbis-tools - check out your settings in Nautilus - edit -> preferences -> preview -> "Sound Files" | 23:25 |
greasy_leftwing | of the system that is, not the chat client | 23:25 |
whileimhere | I see that I have installed a f-spot version 4.0 but they are now up to 4.2 is there a way to upgrade without downloading it and compiling it? | 23:25 |
earthling | bsdnewb07: have u used sudoedit , or vim or gedit? | 23:25 |
Nikke | Pelo, so apt-get remove ubuntu-desktop then install xubuntu-desktop? :) | 23:26 |
Pelo | whileimhere, not unless they make a deb package | 23:26 |
zth | Ok i cant access my USB disk. It's not in /media like it used to be, but there's a shortcut on the desktop. but when i press the shortcut it gives me this error "Couldn't find "/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/volume_uuid_286095066094DBBE"." any clues? | 23:26 |
TaRDy | Jahromeo, i am getting rejected by tracker - unregistered torrent pass | 23:26 |
bsdnewb07 | earthling: nano | 23:26 |
Jahromeo | maybe its password protected or something i dunno | 23:26 |
Dr_Link | bozukarob, GNOME | 23:27 |
legend2440 | bsdnewb07: did you edit it as root? gksudo gedit /etc/security/limits.conf | 23:27 |
bsdnewb07 | yeh i did | 23:27 |
Pelo | Nikke, more or less but the remove ubuntu-dektlop woon' t do anyting, you need to use the line in the link I gaive you , it's very long because it lists all the packages in ubuntu-desktop | 23:27 |
Nikke | ah ok | 23:27 |
TaRDy | Jahromeo, o well there are three torrents of this file so I got one to work | 23:27 |
legend2440 | bsdnewb07: and it won't save changes? | 23:27 |
Pelo | gotta go guys, g'night | 23:27 |
bsdnewb07 | its saved them fine | 23:27 |

bsdnewb07 | wtf | 23:30 |
troubled | nice save | 23:30 |
Charitwo | oh my | 23:30 |
Kopfgeldjaeger | n8 | 23:30 |
tomaw | Amaranth: better leave them to staff, imo | 23:30 |
Amaranth | yeah, i just saw them getting it | 23:31 |
tonyyarusso | tomaw: agreed. | 23:31 |
bsdnewb07 | so yeh anyone know how to activate changes in limits.conf? | 23:31 |
bsdnewb07 | without rebooting | 23:31 |
kane77 | that was pretty fast.. | 23:31 |
sbingner | bsdnewb07, I'd try logging out and back in | 23:32 |
isleshocky77 | wtf | 23:32 |
sbingner | it's pam... | 23:32 |
bsdnewb07 | ok that did something | 23:33 |
bsdnewb07 | MAXCONNECTIONS (2048) is higher than FD_SETSIZE (1024) | 23:33 |
bsdnewb07 | shouldnt limits.conf over ride fd_setsize? | 23:33 |
Tramp | isleshocky77: remove the ctrl-m after #!/bin/sh | 23:33 |
isleshocky77 | Yeah, I'm looking in nano and didn't see one. I'm going to open it in vi | 23:34 |
akan01n | why when i do, dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg, i lost all my configurations? | 23:34 |
akan01n | inside xorg.conf | 23:34 |
isleshocky77 | Tramp: ok, in VI every line has a ^M after it. I thought one of the editors had a script for switching this. | 23:34 |
ceil420 | is there a way to make xclock's background transparent? | 23:34 |
Dr_Link | BinaryFu: Well ... I can't right click and hit "delete" for some reason, no menu appears | 23:35 |
BinaryFu | Dr_Link: Only the stuff on the right hand side of the two columns. | 23:35 |
BinaryFu | Dr_Link: The left side is a directory tree and can't be meddled with directly. | 23:35 |
Tramp | isleshocky77: :1,$s/^M// - get the ctrl-m with "ctrl-v ctrl-m" | 23:36 |
RyanRyan52 | Will hardy's alternate installer use ntp like lenny's new beta does? | 23:36 |
Dr_Link | I just want the damn program gone! | 23:36 |
Dr_Link | But... it says it could not find the installation log in "C:\program" and that uninstallation could not complete. Remember, this is WINE. | 23:37 |
Dr_Link | I understand the error, but I don't understand why I'm getting it. | 23:37 |
BinaryFu | Dr_Link: Well, if you removed /.wine...it *is* gone. But the link is still there. | 23:37 |
Dr_Link | I just want the damn programs GONE! | 23:37 |
Dr_Link | Well, I do just want the links gone. | 23:37 |
BinaryFu | Dr_Link: And the way to do that...is to right click on the Applications and select Edit Menus | 23:38 |
BinaryFu | And there will be two columns...the one on the left, you can't do anything to, the one on the RIGHT however, you can. Right click on the offending item, and hit delete. Done. | 23:38 |
isleshocky77 | Tramp: Not sure what you meant by what you typed. I tried typing that into VI and got "E486: Pattern not found: ^M" | 23:39 |
Dr_Link | Right clicking on them and hitting Delete does nothing, BinaryFu. | 23:40 |
sbingner | isleshocky77, try s/\r$// | 23:40 |
poseidon01 | If I use wubi to install ubuntu alongside windows, will ubuntu run slower opposed to if I installed it another way? | 23:40 |
BinaryFu | Dr_Link: Does it remove it from the right column? | 23:40 |
Tramp | isleshocky77: while you hat the file with the ^Ms in vi? weird. that should delete them. | 23:40 |
sbingner | Islandstone, or run 'dos2unix filename" | 23:40 |
sbingner | Isleshocky77, or run 'dos2unix filename" | 23:41 |
Dr_Link | No, BinaryFu. | 23:41 |
Dr_Link | It just does ... nothing. | 23:41 |
BinaryFu | Dr_Link: You could also just try to uncheck the box as well...that works to not show it on the menu anymore, but it doesn't really "remove it" forever...just kinda, makes it not there. | 23:41 |
sbingner | Dr_Link, click on "Applications" on the left then click on "Wine" on the right then right-click Wine and select delete | 23:42 |
BinaryFu | Dr_Link: I'm not sure what to tell ya, it's working on here just fine. | 23:42 |
Dr_Link | ...sbingner, that does nothing for me. | 23:42 |
Dr_Link | Nothing at all | 23:42 |
Dr_Link | I don't know why | 23:42 |
Dr_Link | but meh | 23:42 |
BinaryFu | Wait. | 23:42 |
Dr_Link | ? | 23:42 |
FloodBot3 | Dr_Link: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 23:42 |
RyanRyan52 | Will hardy's alternate installer use ntp like lenny's new beta does? | 23:42 |
isleshocky77 | sbingner: I don't have that application and it's not in aptitude. | 23:42 |
BinaryFu | Dr_Link: Do you want to get rid of all of the wine directory, or just some file links from it? | 23:42 |
sbingner | Dr_Link, you may not have permissions | 23:42 |
Dr_Link | just some file links from it. | 23:42 |
Dr_Link | Actually! | 23:43 |
Dr_Link | I want to get rid of the entire Wine directory in the menu. | 23:43 |
BinaryFu | Dr_Link: Try clicking on the Wine on the left, and going in that way. | 23:43 |
sbingner | isleshocky77, yes it is -- sudo apt-get install tofrodos | 23:43 |
Dr_Link | HAH! | 23:43 |
Dr_Link | It's gone. | 23:43 |
BinaryFu | Dr_Link: If you want to get rid of all of it, Then click to make sure Applications is highlighted at the top, and then try right clicking on wine and delete, but you *might* have to delete everything inside of there first. | 23:43 |
JaggedToaster | hey everyone, i have a quick question. | 23:43 |
Dr_Link | Now it's gone. | 23:44 |
isleshocky77 | sbingner: Thank you. | 23:44 |
Dr_Link | For good. | 23:44 |
Dr_Link | I'll reinstall Wine... but I'll never install this program again. | 23:44 |
isleshocky77 | p.s. Why would this have happened? And does anyone know what dnsquery does? | 23:44 |
BinaryFu | Dr_Link: Awesome possum! I'm going afk for food. :D | 23:44 |
JaggedToaster | where is the gedit text editor located within ubuntu? like, in the file system. i can't find it. | 23:44 |
JaggedToaster | i need to open it with another application | 23:44 |
RyanRyan52 | .wc | 23:45 |
sbingner | JaggedToaster, type "which gedit" | 23:45 |
JaggedToaster | thanks!!! | 23:45 |

Aerotwelve | Hey guys, quick question that will probably be easy to solve: I have an ATI Radeon HD 2600XT. Ubuntu installed fine but I only got a resolution up to 1600x1200 and my max is 1900x1600. I installed the restricted drivers in the Restricted Drivers panel and now I can't get a GUI. Any ideas? | 23:57 |
