| sdferfx | have zombie process. ps xal tells me its parent process id is 1 (init). I'm not really comfortable issuing kill -9 on init. Is there a way to kill this defunct process? | 00:01 |
| barslow | yea that worked ^_oo_^ | 00:02 |
| barslow | so how do i keep it that way? | 00:02 |
| Tramp | sdferfx: no. init should take care of it after a while. You can't kill a zombie and it's not necessary either | 00:02 |

| sdferfx | Tramp, firefox won't let me start more instances of it without first killing zombie firefox-bin. tried to kill the startup scripts but they don't accept | 00:03 |
| sdferfx | or, they die, but respawn | 00:03 |
| ^_oo_^ | barslow: well, smplayer obviously changed some sort of intenral record of the tint, hence the problem x11 is a different "output" than xv (the default), i guess either uninstalling smplayer and restarting X would be the solution. or rather, it was what fixed the probem for me, might be different for you :) sorry hope it helps | 00:03 |
| Tramp | sdferfx: who respawns them? | 00:03 |
| Jordan_U | sdferfx, So you are sure that the firefox-bin is just a zombie? | 00:04 |
| ghfreak51 | hey | 00:04 |
| Dr_Link | Alright, BinaryFu, I did that, but now ... after reinstalling WINE, the WINE menu won't appear in Applications, not even after using Edit Menu! | 00:04 |

| ghfreak51 | yes | 00:06 |
| minimec | KalEl: /join #ubuntu+1 | 00:06 |
| sdferfx | Tramp, Jordan_U, yes, firefox-bin was the only thing listed defunct. Tramp, unsure, I tried to kill it. In any case, init has now cleaned up zombie firefox-bin, so all is well again. Thanks everyone. : ) | 00:06 |
| KalEl | thanks, minimec | 00:06 |
| Tramp | sdferfx: and don't waste your time trying to kill zombies. | 00:06 |
| Jordan_U | ghfreak51, Have you tried the alternate install CD? | 00:08 |

| * Pelo looks at Lasivian and decides to get that tar and feathers | 00:38 | |
| willis_ | moose, logicially.. yes.. if the game has an installer.exe you would run that... try it and see? | 00:38 |
| Netham45 | willis_, "sence" makes no sense. :P | 00:38 |
| Jordan_U | willis_, It's not a spam, it's a troll | 00:39 |
| * willis_ hits Netham45 with a bag of nickles, that makes cents! | 00:39 | |
| Netham45 | oof | 00:39 |

| caffe_espresso | pelo: all the players... I think is relative to the video card, I've an ati x1600. It happens also in the video effect when i play music... | 00:39 |
| Netham45 | meanie | 00:39 |
| Carbonflux | you can use the money you make working for MS to support open source though Lasivian if you feel guilty ;) | 00:39 |
| xsystemx | Pelo - I think that was the prob, do I need to restart any services? | 00:39 |
| Pelo | caffe_espresso, do you have the destkop effect ( compiz) enabled ? | 00:39 |
| caffe_espresso | pelo: yes | 00:40 |
| Lasivian | Carbonflux: one of the items on the job description was "Employee will promote a positive image of Microsoft" | 00:40 |
| Pelo | xsystemx, restarting X would not be too much but I don't knwo if you need to | 00:40 |
| Netham45 | well, this is annoying, vi crashed my server... | 00:40 |
| dingweb_max | can you use vim? | 00:40 |
| Fryguy-- | Netham45: i doubt it | 00:40 |
| Carbonflux | Lasivian, lol. | 00:40 |
| moose | willis: it says illegal command | 00:40 |
| Jordan_U | Netham45, How can vim crash a server? | 00:40 |
| xsystemx | Pelo - brb | 00:40 |
| moose | am i using the right dos command? | 00:40 |
| Pelo | caffe_espresso, turn off the effect, see if the problem still occurs, if it doesn't , go and ask in #compiz which pluggin you need to turn off to solve the prolbme and have the other effect enabled | 00:40 |
| Netham45 | I typed in, "vi /etc/network/interfaces" and about 2 minutes later, I timed out. | 00:41 |
| Netham45 | now I can't reconnect | 00:41 |
| willis_ | moose, i would guess you are doing somthing totally wrong. You run dosbox, you assign the C: to be whereever you want , then from dosbox you run the installer for the game.. Note that dosbox does NOT run windows games. only dosgames | 00:41 |
| dingweb_max | were you root or sudo? | 00:41 |
| willis_ | !tab | moose | 00:41 |

| Netham45 | cheesebob, sounds like a failed burn to me | 00:44 |

| Cray_ | do you have grafic card driver installed ... | 00:44 |
| Pelo | theunixgeek, scroll further down, you'll see it | 00:45 |

| cheesebob | Netham45, i closed the session | 00:45 |
| theunixgeek | Pelo: ok, restarting X now | 00:45 |

| Jordan_U | cheesebob, Was it burned in Vista? | 00:45 |
| cheesebob | Jordan_U, yes | 00:46 |
| theunixgeek | Pelo: nope, still didn't work | 00:46 |
| Tann | amenado: Sorry, typo stitch is supposed to be "switch" | 00:46 |
| Pelo | theunixgeek, you now need to change the rez from the resolution applet in the pref menu | 00:46 |
| Jordan_U | cheesebob, I have heard that Vista uses a new format for disks, there is a way to get them to mount but I can't remember it off the top of my head | 00:46 |
| Pelo | theunixgeek, you also needed to add the resolution to each colour dept | 00:46 |
| theunixgeek | Pelo: I did; it's not there | 00:46 |
| theunixgeek | Pelo: how? | 00:46 |
| Pelo | theunixgeek, pastebin your xorg.conf file so I can have a look | 00:47 |

| ubotu | zo0o0ot: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! | 00:50 |
| cheesebob | Jordan_U, i just broke that DVD (useless with UDF 2.5) it's cool how dvd layer is in the middle | 00:51 |
| zo0o0ot | I'm having issues with a pchdtv card- I can't get the dvb utilities to work in ubuntu | 00:51 |
| Tann | amenado: i was told on #networking that i would need a crossover cable. | 00:51 |
| zo0o0ot | does anyone have advice or experience? | 00:52 |
| Fryguy-- | Tann: so get a crossover cable | 00:52 |
| Pelo | zo0o0ot, because fo copyright issues, dvd don'T work out of the box in ubuntu you have to do a little work | 00:52 |
| amenado | Tann-> correct or use a switch in between or a hub | 00:52 |
| Pelo | !dvd | zo0o0ot | 00:52 |
| ubotu | zo0o0ot: For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at !Medibuntu or (for Feisty and earlier) http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs | 00:52 |
| awmcclain | Ug. Can anyone point me to how I can create a user (with password) from the console? I can't find any good resources. | 00:52 |
| zo0o0ot | not DVD- terrestrial ATSC OTA HDTV | 00:52 |
| Jordan_U | Netham45, Sounds like opening /etc/networking/interfaces in vim and the server crashing was more a matter of correlation than causation | 00:52 |
| jvai | hey all, what's a good make/model external-usb dual layer dvd burner for dapper? | 00:52 |
| willis_ | awmcclain, sudo adduser, or sudo useradd | 00:52 |
| Netham45 | Jordan_U, those are some big words there. | 00:53 |
| zo0o0ot | using the ATSC tuner from pchdtv's hd-3000 card | 00:53 |

| Tann | amenado: sp a switch will work? What do id do after i connect them using the switch? | 00:53 |
| moose | it says cd missing | 00:53 |
| Pelo | zo0o0ot, maybe try to do a forum search for your hardware , www.ubuntuforums.org | 00:53 |
| willis_ | awmcclain, I recall some of those commands can take alernative input. check their manpages. | 00:53 |
| Jordan_U | Netham45, Just because it crashed after you started vi doesn't mean vi caused the crash, whatever caused the crash of the entire server is probably what caused vim to crash, not the other way around :) | 00:53 |
| Pelo | ok gotta go to be, g'night foks | 00:54 |
| awmcclain | willis_: Already have. Can't figure out how to redirect stdin into passwd. | 00:54 |
| amenado | Tann-> assign an ip address to your 2nd computer, let it point to a dns server; and ... | 00:54 |
| zo0o0ot | pchdtv has their own forum, following the forum advice, I can't get the dvb utilities that they need to install | 00:54 |
| amenado | Tann then its as easy as echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward; and... | 00:54 |
| Netham45 | Jordan_U, well, it is a brand new install, all I've done was install openssh-server. | 00:54 |
| Pelo | amenado, it is a linux util ? | 00:54 |
| amenado | Tann then its as easy as sudo echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward; and... | 00:54 |
| willis_ | awmcclain, No idea on that. Ive seen it done.. but never done it.. ages ago you could use 'expect' to automate it i guess.. but not sure whats a good way now. | 00:54 |
| Pelo | nvm , g'night folks | 00:54 |
| amenado | Pelo which one? | 00:54 |
| awmcclain | willis_: Well. poop. Thanks for your try! | 00:55 |
| Jordan_U | Netham45, Can you pastebin your /etc/networking/interfaces ? | 00:55 |

| Flannel | redips1, Fryguy--, he means the compiz cube thing | 01:10 |
| Fryguy-- | gamergod131: you'll probably have to reinstall ubuntu, since you upgraded it to an alpha version, and ubuntu's package system doesn't support downgrading | 01:10 |
| Coolguy64537 | when it gets to the install software screen it shows an error mesage so i just skipped the software part. it will boot into just a plain terminal so i need to know how to change the repositories from cd to internet because the cd will oly install the base system | 01:10 |
| redips1 | Yes.. | 01:10 |
| Cray_ | any1 know how to activate 3D Desktop on Life Ubuntu USB version msg me | 01:10 |
| Fryguy-- | Flannel: cube != square, but whatever | 01:10 |
| Flannel | gamergod131: yes. And try #ubuntu+1 for more help. You should be able to upgrade properly (of course, you'll be at an alpha version, but it still should work) | 01:10 |
| gamergod131 | crap | 01:10 |
| gnr | anyone know a reason why "scripts" option does not appear under file in nautilus? | 01:10 |

| czarczar | hi, i have a dual boot setup (sabayon linux & vista). I'd like to install ubuntu over sabayon, will this work without messing up my mbr or grub? | 01:12 |
| Fryguy-- | redips1: you need to install compizconfig-settings-manager and enable the cube there | 01:12 |
| flipmode | Fryguy: I have no .bash folders | 01:13 |
| Fryguy-- | flipmode: i didn't say you have a .bash directory, i said you'll have a .bash_profile or a .bashrc file | 01:13 |

| life2atreus | cant get sound to work in firefox anybody know what to do? | 01:17 |
| amenado | Tann-> did you assign an ip address to your 2nd computer? can you ping the yahoo from the gateway? | 01:17 |

| twistedbeatfreek | i can get my sound to work im new to linux how do i play my mp3s | 01:18 |

| Fryguy-- | flipmode: ? | 01:18 |
| Fryguy-- | flipmode: no idea what you are talking about | 01:18 |
| amenado | Tann btw, have you tried to google for a tutorial on how to share an internet connection? | 01:18 |

| Fryguy-- | flipmode: i never told you to do that | 01:19 |

| amenado | flipmode-> so there was a login prompt? not entirely just black screen?> | 01:21 |
| flipmode | amendo: yes | 01:21 |

| flipmode | amenado: Installed from disc 7.10 | 01:27 |
| david_ | cottima, i have no idea. This is the first Linux system i have installed. I can do fair with windows products, so I am somewhat confused ATM. | 01:27 |

| Stroganoff | shawn__: sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list | 01:30 |
| jescis | nikrud: So, the frame buffer module is in what package? Or what search term would I use in google to find the answer? | 01:30 |
| twistedbeatfreek | ive made it work before and it goes good | 01:30 |
| flipmode | amenado: yes give or take it is when i noticed it | 01:30 |

| amenado | flipmode-> can you try noacpi apci=off as boot parameters? try to reboot now.. | 01:31 |
| nikrud | jescis: it would be triggered by a module that's already in the kernel (or should be, I'm finding no udev rule for /dev/fb[0-9] in /etc/udev/rules.conf . Looking for reasons | 01:31 |
| frutax | is there a known bug for firefox on edgy that causes it to always ask if you'd like to restore session, whether or not you closed it correctly? also it crashes unexpectedly | 01:31 |
| david_ | if i'm trying to install wireless equipment, shouldn't i have some sort of wireless indicator on the system>administration>network... etc? | 01:31 |
| flipmode | amenado: how do i do that? | 01:31 |
| amenado | twistedbeatfreek-> i have not pursued sounds issues.i can play video with no sounds though | 01:32 |
| amenado | flipmode when booting you hit esc and use arrow key to get to the kernel line and then insert those | 01:32 |
| jescis | nikrud: I did a modprobe for fb and it gave that it wasn't found :/ | 01:33 |
| flipmode | amenado: so i write noacpi | 01:34 |

| amenado | flipmode-> maybe up/down arrow key...right when you get to count down | 01:39 |
| flipmode | amenado: i have tried all that before it just isnt funtional at that point for some reason | 01:40 |
| Stroganoff | eegore: is it that stable yet? | 01:40 |
| bazhang | frutax: no that is normal behaviour | 01:41 |
| amenado | flipmode can you boot from a liveCD? | 01:41 |
| frutax | bazhang: it's normal behavoir for it to crash unexpectedly and not be able to restore previous sessions? | 01:41 |
| flipmode | amenado: yes i can go to the bios but i cant do anything while the grub is loading | 01:41 |
| Garamond | Um, does anyone use wireless and 64 bit here? | 01:41 |
| jescis | nikrud: so how is it you can watch a video or look at images with a gui but you can't without a gui? | 01:42 |
| amenado | flipmode can you boot from a liveCD? | 01:42 |
| nikrud | jescis: not finding any sugar, but I'm curious about this. I'm going to spend a little more time on it | 01:42 |
| DFlame | Evenin' folks. Having a bit of trouble booting from a live CD (7.10). After hitting star/install the screen blacks out and i get beeps from the compy. I think it's a gfx prob. The gard is a nvidia 8500 | 01:42 |
| flipmode | amenado: yes | 01:42 |
| bazhang | frutax: no the first part; normal to ask if you want to restore orginal session per your original question | 01:42 |
| nikrud | jescis: because you don't have a working framebuffer | 01:42 |
| Stroganoff | DFlame, use alternate cd. | 01:42 |
| eegore | nope | 01:43 |
| frutax | bazhang: oh, well it asks that every time, even if there is no previous session to restore, and if there is one, it doesn't restore it | 01:43 |
| amenado | flipmode can you paste into pastebin your menu.lst? | 01:43 |
| bazhang | frutax: then just choose no | 01:43 |
| jescis | nikrud: ok thanks for the help. | 01:43 |
| flipmode | amenado: where do i find this? | 01:43 |
| a1fa_ | hey for netboot do you use tcp/ip or pxe? | 01:44 |
| DFlame | Stroganoff, I'd like to be able to partition manually. Is that possible on the alternate? | 01:44 |
| shawn__ | can someone help me fix my source list | 01:44 |
| frutax | bazhang: well, yeah, but it's broken, it's a bug. i was just wondering if it was well-known and if there was a fix | 01:44 |

| a1fa_ | no | 01:45 |
| bazhang | frutax: describe your problem with some clarity please; when does it crash, is this 64bit ubuntu? watching lots of flash in many tabs, also check launchpad for bugs and file one if you really believe it is one--firefox is a memory hog and if not enough ram may act oddly--you might try another browser as well | 01:46 |
| flipmode | amenado: i think you can find it here http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59987/ | 01:46 |

| jbwiv_ | guys, I had a software raid mirror that failed. I can't boot for some reason from the remaining drive. I've booted into the live cd and am trying to mount, but it tells me "unknown filesystem type linux_raid_member". I searched the forums for awhile, but trying what they suggested (mount -t ext3) doesn't work either. This would make sense, as I had LVM on top of the mirror. Anyone know how I can fix or get to data? | 01:50 |
| schidamb | I've a file permission with c--xr-x--- . Not sure how this file get to this stage, could you pls help me to remove this file. I've downloaded this file from maven repository | 01:50 |
| bellkana | OK, can I use the Japanese characters to input as the IME on MS Windows? | 01:50 |
| Fryguy-- | schidamb: just delete it.. | 01:51 |

| Dr_willis | NeXius, XMMS is geting to be quite old. I would suggest using other players. | 01:51 |
| shawn__ | how do i get to root so that i can edit my source list | 01:51 |
| Carenthalas | bellkana: I think so. | 01:51 |
| shawn__ | ? | 01:51 |
| amenado | flipmode are you root? edit as root | 01:51 |
| Dr_willis | NeXius, for a guss. i would think that xmms is not set to use ALSA like the rest of the apps are. | 01:51 |
| xthegoat121x | Carenthalas, yes. | 01:51 |

| amenado | flipmode id also comment those lines 134 144 to remove quiet effects | 01:52 |
| xthegoat121x | Carenthalas, it's all right. I appreciate it regardless. | 01:52 |
| shawn__ | so how do i sudo to edit my source list | 01:53 |
| flipmode | amenado: by comment you mean erase? | 01:53 |
| jescis | shawn__: in terminal | 01:53 |
| shawn__ | do you know the command | 01:53 |
| Carenthalas | bellkana: I use SCIM which can configure Asian languages IME such as Chinese, Japan hirangana, and katakana, etc. | 01:53 |
| Fryguy-- | shawn__: sudo <insertnameofyourfavoriteeditorhere> /etc/apt/sources.list | 01:53 |
| amenado | flipmode # is a comment are you trying to learn unix here step by step? | 01:53 |
| Starnestommy | shawn__: sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list.save | 01:53 |
| Dr_willis | sudo EDITOR /etc/apt/sources.list | 01:53 |
| jescis | shawn__: sudo gedit <fileyouwantedited> | 01:54 |
| flipmode | amenado: i guess ive never heard that before | 01:54 |
| Dr_willis | shawn__, you may need to use nano, or some other text based editor. Depends on if You wan tto use X or console. | 01:54 |
| flipmode | amenado: so i just put a # at the end? | 01:54 |
| Fryguy-- | benzss: | 01:54 |
| Fryguy-- | beginning | 01:54 |
| Dez | guys i gots a problem.... | 01:55 |
| amenado | flipmode at the beginning | 01:55 |
| Tann | amenado: the other comp is windows | 01:55 |
| jbwiv_ | Lord have mercy people...by a book on Linux before you come to irc. Seriously. Basics are *easy* | 01:55 |
| jbwiv_ | er...buy, as it were | 01:55 |
| * amenado dont disagree with jbwiv | 01:55 | |
| pantsd_ | I've been searching on google and the wiki, but I can't seem to find an answer. I have a core duo, but I can't seem to get the second cpu identifed. dmesg shows "WARNING: NR_CPUS limit of 1 reached. Processor ignored." I can't seem to find a way to install SMP kernel, any suggestions of where I can look for more info? | 01:56 |
| amenado | Tann-> you know how to set an ip address on windows right? i hope you do..or else visit #windows | 01:56 |
| jescis | jbwiv_: basics are supposed to be easy they're basic ;) | 01:56 |
| Dez | Q: I recently updated to 7.10 but for some reason that version boots up into a mode that is out of range of my monitor. How can I can the default screen resolution in safe mode (command prompt)? | 01:56 |
| jbwiv_ | jescis: apparently that's missed on a lot of people here... | 01:56 |
| Fryguy-- | pantsd_: ubuntu's generic kernel supports smp by default, and behaves just fine out of the box with multiple processors, namely those in the core2 family. You must have some done something other than a stock install, or have some very exotic hardware somewhere else in the system | 01:56 |
| Fryguy-- | Dez: edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 01:57 |
| Fryguy-- | Dez: or dpkg-reconfigure it | 01:57 |
| Fryguy-- | (xserver) | 01:57 |
| amenado | flipmode-> i wonder if you and Dez have similar problem, ie out or range resolution? | 01:57 |
| pantsd_ | Fryguy--: I think I'm using a stock kernel, how can I check/install one? | 01:57 |
| Garamond | Is it possible to use vista drivers for ndiswrapper? | 01:58 |
| Fryguy-- | pantsd_: well did you install or compile a non-stock kenrel? | 01:58 |
| Dez | for me im quite sure its the resolution. my monitor is a HDTV and its real picky about resultions | 01:58 |
| Dez | thanks for the advice | 01:58 |
| flipmode | amenado: how do i edit as root if i cant use terminal? | 01:58 |
| eng_xima | malta alguem ai | 01:58 |
| Fryguy-- | flipmode: use gksu as a gui replacement for sudo | 01:58 |
| pantsd_ | Fryguy--: I don't think so. | 01:58 |
| Stroganoff | pantsd_: "uname -a" in console | 01:58 |
| Fryguy-- | pantsd_: then you have multi processor support | 01:58 |
| Fryguy-- | pantsd_: does top or anything show you as using 2 processors? | 01:59 |
| flipmode | huh | 01:59 |
| jescis | flipmode: Why can't you use terminal? Too hard? :p | 01:59 |
| eng_xima | i don't have sound in my ubunto | 01:59 |
| steven_ | is there a log file where what happened during bootup is stored? | 01:59 |
| eng_xima | who help me | 01:59 |
| pantsd_ | Fryguy--: top only shows one cpu and only one cpu shows up in /proc/cpuinfo | 01:59 |
| flipmode | jescis: it is not working | 01:59 |
| Fryguy-- | eng_xima: english is helpful, along with a more detailed description of your problem | 01:59 |
| pantsd_ | Fryguy--: uname -a = Linux htop 2.6.22-14-386 #1 Tue Feb 12 07:12:19 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux | 02:00 |
| Fryguy-- | pantsd_: then something is horribly wrong with your hardware setup. | 02:00 |
| ctgPi | What packages do I need to install to be able to compile kernel modules? My installation seems to lack the asm/local.h file | 02:00 |
| eng_xima | the sound card is installed,.. | 02:00 |
| shawn__ | i went to that editing this for my source list | 02:00 |
| bellkana | Carenthalas: where do I download the SCIM? I tried Apps > Add/Remove then tried to find it but no luck | 02:00 |
| eng_xima | everything is ok | 02:00 |
| shawn__ | and the code3 thta i need tot ake out isnnt in there | 02:00 |
| eng_xima | but no sound | 02:00 |
| eng_xima | :S | 02:00 |
| kitche | ctgPi: do you have build-essential installed? | 02:01 |
| shawn__ | the list i ned to get rid of are in sources d | 02:01 |
| pantsd_ | Fryguy--: coool, thanks | 02:01 |
| ctgPi | kitche: I'm installing it right now | 02:01 |
| Fryguy-- | pantsd_: make sure your bios is configured correctly to use smp, apic etc | 02:01 |
| ctgPi | kitche: still no asm/local.h | 02:02 |
| amenado | flipmode you said you can get to liveCd ? | 02:02 |
| pantsd_ | Fryguy--: cool, I'll do that once I finish my download. Thanks a lot for your help :) Greatly appreciated :) | 02:02 |
| jescis | eng_xima: if you go to /dev is alsa in there? | 02:02 |
| ctgPi | kitche: I've got already gcc, build-essential, linux-headers | 02:03 |
| jescis | eng_xima: or oss? | 02:03 |
| Carenthalas | bellkana: My linux OS is preloaded with SCIM with Asian fonts and IME. | 02:03 |
| ctgPi | kitche: and there's a bunch of asm-*/local.h under /usr/src/linux-.../include/, but symlinking asm to asm-i386 still gives compilation errors | 02:03 |
| icesword | Carenthalas, you from china,where? | 02:04 |
| Carenthalas | bellkana: You may look for the web site: http://www.scim-im.org/ see if you can find the anwser. | 02:04 |
| steven_ | is there a place where I can get the screen output from bootup? | 02:04 |
| Carenthalas | icesword: Yes | 02:04 |
| kitche | ctgPi: your might be missing libc6-dev which build-essential should have given you | 02:04 |

| david_ | ok, ty | 02:33 |
| jescis | zcat[1]_: But we are talking about the bootup part. He's not even at a gui | 02:34 |
| Carenthalas | david_: Because the LiveCD will not change anything. You can use it for a diagnostic to see if it is hardware issue, or kernel support/driver issues, etc. | 02:34 |
| zcat[1]_ | 'linux' is a kernel, a small binary program that does nothing at all by itself.. ubuntu is a distro, A collection of many programs including the linux 'kernel' that does useful things | 02:34 |

| alpat | join #callahans | 02:40 |
| coleosis | Yes, it does. I'm running a MacBook Pro...one of the features I love of the company specifically is the backlit keys as I am generally in a lot of poorly lit areas. | 02:40 |
| XPHOX | PRIVMSG | 02:40 |
| alpat | ? | 02:40 |
| coleosis | Do you happen to know how I would go about fixing it? | 02:40 |
| Scunizi | mindheavy, linux doesn't like spaces in names..if you have to do something with a "spaced" file name you have to enclose it in "'s | 02:40 |
| prince_jammys | mindheavy: because the shell uses spaces to separate words (arguments, for example) - so the shell doesn't know that a space is actually just part of the filename unless you quote it | 02:41 |
| zcat[1]_ | Scunizi: or\ use\ a\ backslash | 02:41 |
| mindheavy | ah, thanks | 02:41 |
| jrib | Scunizi: just makes you take some extra steps in a shell | 02:41 |

| ASDFG | the problem is that I tried that, but since I have a laptop screen, and an external screen, the external screen is displaying at a lower resolution that its meant to, plus I cant turn the laptop screen off, my screen and graphics windows closes every time I change something | 02:41 |
| prince_jammys | mindheavy: rm crappy song.mp3 (will try to remove two files: "crappy" and "song.mp3") | 02:41 |
| mneptok | ASDFG: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 02:42 |
| orran | Hey I need help with formating my secondary hard drive | 02:42 |
| lymeca | What is the best way to capture a DV stream from a digital DV camera via Firewire? | 02:42 |
| mindslant | hey orran | 02:42 |
| mneptok | ASDFG: do that with the external monitor plugged in | 02:42 |
| zcat[1]_ | rm crappy\ song.mp3 will work though .. or rm "crappy song.mp3" | 02:42 |
| jescis | zcat[1]_: so what shows up? a graphic of ubuntu with a progress bar. that's not a gui imo. the gui to me is the desktop. So, if you try alt+F1 then it should work I'm thinking. | 02:42 |
| Scunizi | orran, what do you want to format it to? | 02:42 |
| quentusrex | What should I install on a dual core Intel 64 bit processor? 7.10 386 or amd64? | 02:42 |
| Scunizi | 32 | 02:42 |
| zcat[1]_ | jescis: yes.. alt-F1.. not "alt-F1-F6" -- what keypress is that exactly? | 02:43 |
| mneptok | quentusrex: i386 | 02:43 |
| orran | ext3? | 02:43 |
| Scunizi | quentusrex, 386 less headaches | 02:43 |
| quentusrex | alright | 02:43 |
| quentusrex | thanks | 02:43 |
| jescis | zcat[1]_: that's to sdhow they don't need to use F1 they could use F5 | 02:43 |
| Scunizi | orran, there are different ways.. but gparted is the easiest.. sudo apt-get install gparted.. in a terminal then sudo gparted to activate | 02:43 |
| zcat[1]_ | jescis: if the screen is going black after bootup (when gdm starts) they probably want "ctrl-alt-F1" to get a text login, and they can reconfigure X from there | 02:43 |
| seismicmike | Hey guys I was in here yesterday with a problem with my mp3 player. You guys directed me to a website that had good instructions on changing the firmware. I just wanted to let you know that it worked and everything is perfect now. THANK YOU!!! | 02:44 |
| zcat[1]_ | jescis: well you didn't tell them that | 02:44 |
| Scunizi | seismicmike, glad it worked! | 02:44 |
| seismicmike | you were a HUGE help man | 02:44 |
| orran | ?? | 02:44 |
| seismicmike | this rocks!!! | 02:44 |
| jescis | zcat[1]_: it's a no brainer imo | 02:44 |
| david_ | does Ubuntu 6.06 have a nickname? some type of animal? | 02:44 |
| zcat[1]_ | jescis: best to just pick one and don't tell them they can choose any. No it's not a no-braner, they seemed to think they had to press alt+F1+6" | 02:44 |
| Scunizi | orran, when you do sudo gparted it will start a gui app that will let you format and partition any of your drives.. | 02:45 |
| coleosis | Wasn't 6.06 Fawn? | 02:45 |
| Scunizi | coleosis, dapper drake | 02:45 |
| coleosis | Ah, thanks. My bad. | 02:45 |
| david_ | ty | 02:45 |
| Jinxed- | how do you adjust the settings so when you are viewing folders it doesn't open up a new window when you open a folder, but instead just stays in the same window you are in | 02:45 |
| seismicmike | anyway, just wanted to let you know. I'm off to enjoy my mp3 player :) | 02:46 |
| orran | explain it a little better | 02:46 |
| jescis | zcat[1]_: that's because I said F1-6. But when I said F1-F6 he got the message. | 02:46 |
| cafuego | ghrrm. Does quodlibet not support DAAP music sharing? | 02:46 |
| Scunizi | orran, if you want to format a drive, 1. it can't be mounted. 2. do it from the terminal/command line or gui 3.make sure you have the right drive picked out before committing to the format | 02:47 |

| hischild | riskbreaker, powernowd sets the cpu power by itself on demand. It also has options on setting high/low limits. Type man powernowd for details. | 02:52 |
| Jinxed- | prince_jammys: you are my hero tonight | 02:52 |
| riskbreaker | is powernowd a daemon? | 02:52 |

| hischild | riskbreaker, it's a daemon which you can control. | 02:53 |
| Sandra24 | before I run make install, is there anything I should know? like I'm about to lock myself out? Or should I uninstall the portable open ssh (2.6) on there right now first? | 02:54 |

| nosliw_pilf | Hey all. I'm a linux newbie. Relatively. I've got a customization issue. Anyone feel like helping me? | 02:56 |
| Fryguy-- | Sandra24: theres' better ways to do what you are trying to do than reinstalling ssh. I'd do some more research before committing to this | 02:56 |
| Sandra24 | a nicely chroot jailed sftp, as per that article | 02:56 |
| riskbreaker | hischild: and if so which do you recommend | 02:56 |
| Fryguy-- | nosliw_pilf: nobody can help you until you ask a question | 02:56 |
| hischild | riskbreaker, type man powernowd. It explains what you can do with it. You can select one of the 4 modes, but also give it a upper/lower limit and do a lot of other features. | 02:56 |
| riskbreaker | k | 02:56 |
| Scunizi | orran_, ok.. in the upper right of the gparted screen you'll see a box (sorta) that might say something like /dev/sda or /dev/sdb.. do you see it? | 02:56 |
| ClericDelta | sarixe: it will say original filename not available for 'song name' | 02:57 |
| nosliw_pilf | Well, I figured I'd ask if anyone wanted to help before I just asked my question. | 02:57 |
| Sandra24 | fryguy: I've been at this one all day, and this seems like the simplest, most maintainable solution | 02:57 |
| xphox | ok nosliw_pilf | 02:57 |
| xphox | ill help u | 02:57 |
| orran_ | hold on | 02:57 |
| Scunizi | k | 02:57 |
| sarixe | ClericDelta : hm... i'm not too sure | 02:57 |
| Sandra24 | Fryguy: I appreciate your concern though :) | 02:57 |
| hischild | riskbreaker, what profile you choose depends on what you want. Usually the default will suffice | 02:57 |
| Fryguy-- | Sandra24: I'd rather see you run a *nix that supports this type of thing by default, like freebsd | 02:57 |
| orran_ | It's still scanning | 02:57 |
| coleosis | Could anyone point me in the direction of how I would go about modifying my desktop in Ubuntu, I'm talking about the little widgets that show resources, memory usage, etc. I'd greatly appreciate it. | 02:57 |

| Fryguy-- | coleosis: conky, gkrellm will get you started | 02:58 |
| nosliw_pilf | Any way, my question is: I'm running 7.10, and you know how you can set the top panel to autohide? On my computer, the top panel takes forever to show back up when I mouse over it. Is there any way to set the mouseover time so that it doesn't take as long before the top panel comes back out? | 02:58 |
| Scunizi | orran_, it's taking way longer than it should | 02:58 |
| coleosis | Thanks Fryguy-- | 02:58 |

| orran_ | right | 02:58 |
| ClericDelta | anyone really handy with gtkpod that can help? | 02:58 |
| Sandra24 | Fryguy: Not an option, surely updating openssh isn't that big a deal. The other alternative is to fall back to plain old ftp, which is tempting | 02:59 |

| sola1 | how can i test my hdds if they are borken? | 03:14 |
| Fryguy-- | Sandra24: no. All i do is sit here and copy and paste people's questions into google and link to results, since people aren't smart enough to do that themselves | 03:14 |
| tbwnoob | hmm | 03:14 |
| tbwnoob | is there a 3d driver for x1300 ati cards? | 03:15 |
| Fryguy-- | tbwnoob: dont' think so | 03:15 |
| tbwnoob | awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww | 03:15 |
| tbwnoob | mannnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn | 03:15 |
| tbwnoob | no good | 03:15 |
| Werenerd | Fryguy--: I don't know crap about ATI, is that an old card? | 03:15 |
| tbwnoob | no | 03:15 |
| LjL | tbwnoob, that's unneeded! | 03:15 |
| Fryguy-- | no | 03:15 |
| tbwnoob | its just a pci | 03:15 |
| Scunizi | tbwnoob, check out http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/ubuntu-help/63601-ati-driver-install-terminal.html | 03:15 |
| a1fa_ | ok | 03:15 |
| sola1 | can i play starcraft or counterstrike source in ubuntu? | 03:15 |
| Fryguy-- | sola1: yes | 03:16 |
| Sandra24 | Fryguy: sorry, don't want you to do that, just wondering if you knew what ld.so was off the top of your head. But I can figure it out. Thanks for your help. | 03:16 |
| a1fa_ | have you guys ever wondered what happens if you do dist-upgrade from debian to ubuntu? | 03:16 |
| a1fa_ | i am about to do it ;P | 03:16 |
| a1fa_ | lets see what happens | 03:16 |
| Werenerd | a1fa_: they are not 100% binary compatable | 03:16 |
| Fryguy-- | alfa_: you'll almost certainly hose your system | 03:16 |
| Scunizi | alfa_, boom | 03:16 |
| egc | can i install to a VM from an .iso image? | 03:16 |
| Scunizi | egc yes | 03:16 |
| Fryguy-- | egc: sure | 03:16 |
| egc | i.e. without actually burning the disc? | 03:16 |
| egc | cool | 03:16 |
| a1fa_ | relay:~# cat /etc/debian_version | 03:17 |
| a1fa_ | 4.0 | 03:17 |
| a1fa_ | :P | 03:17 |
| a1fa_ | here she goes | 03:17 |
| Fryguy-- | egc: every virtual machine server i've ever seen allows mounting isos as cdrom devices in the guest | 03:17 |
| Werenerd | a1fa_: I wouldn't do it. It would be better if you move your /home to a separate partition, whack the / partition and install ubuntu there | 03:17 |
| Tann | amenado: The windows computer is saying "Limited or no connectivity" I look at it and it shows that there is no default gateway. | 03:17 |
| Positronic | Does anyone have any idea how to install a PCMCIA card (Linksys WPC11 ver4) in a command line installation of ubuntu with no internet? | 03:17 |
| a1fa_ | Werenerd: i am doing it for the hell of it | 03:17 |
| orran | Hello | 03:17 |
| egc | Fryguy--: does that help with installing though? | 03:17 |
| orran | I need | 03:17 |
| Fryguy-- | egc: ? | 03:17 |
| Tann | er, no default gateway. | 03:17 |
| a1fa_ | i dont need any of this data | 03:18 |
| orran | help formatting my hard drive | 03:18 |
| Fryguy-- | Tann: so set up a default gateway | 03:18 |
| Werenerd | a1fa_: goog luck. You should take notes in case it goes horrible wrong or easy as pie | 03:18 |

| corinne_ | \okay, here is what comes up after mount: http://pastebin.com/m337704dc | 03:33 |
| tuvook | but most will direct you to the samba faq first | 03:33 |
| tuvook | users must learn how to read faqs and search google | 03:34 |

| Fryguy-- | cdm10: type id | 03:42 |
| icesword | a1fa_, what is up | 03:42 |
| hischild | a1fa_, base install then? | 03:42 |
| tuvook | it was novel, but I wanted a desktop in less than 20hrs | 03:42 |
| cdm10 | Fryguy--: thanks | 03:42 |
| a1fa_ | yeah | 03:42 |
| a1fa_ | i just need baseinstall | 03:42 |
| a1fa_ | on usb drive | 03:42 |
| tuvook | puppy | 03:43 |
| a1fa_ | thats my last chance | 03:43 |
| hischild | a1fa_, then search for that ... there is one .... | 03:43 |
| cpk1 | Fryguy--: so what needs to happen for the changes to take place? | 03:43 |
| cge | a1fa_: Look into methods for doing it with debian; they should translate rather well. | 03:43 |
| Fryguy-- | tuvook: heh, you can start from stage 3. I've got a quadcore machine with 4gb ram, so the system would come up quickly | 03:43 |
| Werenerd | tuvook: I don't understand the difference between public and browsable in smb.conf | 03:43 |
| tuvook | dsl | 03:43 |
| Fryguy-- | cpk1: reboot, or just manually set the values yourself | 03:43 |
| Fryguy-- | Werenerd: so then read the documentation about it | 03:43 |
| a1fa_ | cge: i just did dist-upgrade | 03:43 |
| Kyro__ | I just installed the gnome-art tool omg its downloading thousands of things without prompting | 03:43 |
| tuvook | Werenerd, keep reading, and you will :) | 03:43 |
| a1fa_ | it had an epic fail | 03:43 |
| Fryguy-- | Werenerd: join #samba, this isn't it | 03:43 |
| HardyOne | trying to setup VirtualBox and gettelling me to run /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup but that returns /etc/init.d/vboxdrv: command not found any ideas? | 03:43 |
| tuvook | Kyro__, its supposed to | 03:43 |
| cge | a1fa_: ah | 03:43 |
| corinne_ | switched ports and still failing | 03:43 |
| Kyro__ | tuvook, be nice if it said "I am about to download 1,100+ wallpapers, would you like me to?" lol | 03:44 |
| Werenerd | Fryguy--: I realize that and if you had been paying attention earlier I said it was dead in there | 03:44 |
| Fryguy-- | HardyOne: seems like you don't have virtualbox installed then | 03:44 |
| tuvook | HardyOne, install virtualbox from the website | 03:44 |
| tuvook | lol | 03:44 |
| tuvook | Fryguy--, :) | 03:44 |
| Fryguy-- | Werenerd: so? that doesn't give you the right or reason to go asking in another random channel | 03:44 |
| Kyro__ | virtualbox ftw | 03:44 |
| HardyOne | tuvook, I did. compiled it | 03:44 |
| musashi | i have dvds i bought overseas. is there a way to view them in ubuntu if i have a region 1 drive but region 2 dvds without hacking the firmware or changing the region code on the drive? | 03:44 |
| Meneertje | hi kyro any luck with the usb install? | 03:44 |
| Werenerd | Fryguy--: I also know that I come in here and answer far simpler questions. I don't think this is so unusual a question to ask in this channel | 03:44 |
| Fryguy-- | Werenerd: we are busy enough helping people in here with legimate problems suitable for this channel. samba has wonderful documentation, you don't need live help to figure things out youself, check out /usr/share/doc/samba | 03:45 |
| tuvook | HardyOne, no reason to compile it, just use the .dedb | 03:45 |
| BaW | Hi!!! | 03:45 |
| Kyro__ | Meneertje, hey ^_^ I gave up got too complicated | 03:45 |
| _CitizenKane_ | I have an error in a startup script, i know how to fix that error, but the error causes the root partition to mount read-only, how can I get around this? | 03:45 |
| Kyro__ | I didn't need it that badly | 03:45 |
| BaW | I am having a problem with install the 64bit on a quad core | 03:45 |
| Kyro__ | was just messing around | 03:45 |
| a1fa_ | if there is a way to force 7.10 install cd into ncurses install mode.. iw ill be set | 03:45 |
| Meneertje | wah. it was actually very easy. maybe next time | 03:45 |
| Fryguy-- | _CitizenKane_: remount the root partition as rw | 03:45 |
| Tann | cge: I am trying to make it so that a computer that connects to my computer using ethernet (eth0) use the internet that comes to my computer via a wireless network (ath0) | 03:45 |
| Meneertje | :) | 03:45 |
| _CitizenKane_ | Fryguy--, how would i do that? | 03:45 |
| Fryguy-- | alfa_: you need the alternate install disc for that as far as i know | 03:45 |
| Fryguy-- | _CitizenKane_: man mount | 03:46 |
| Kyro__ | Meneertje, yea I still am interested in doing it, I'll just have to try another day when I have more patience :) | 03:46 |
| tuvook | alfa_ server install | 03:46 |
| dylmoore | does anyone know how to turn off fast writes on a radeon 9600? I;m having video stuttering problems in wine, and I think that's the reason | 03:46 |
| a1fa_ | damn it dude | 03:46 |
| tuvook | then add the packages you want | 03:46 |
| a1fa_ | i only have 7.10 cd | 03:46 |
| cge | a1fa_: I think I've done it before, but it isn't easy. | 03:46 |
| Kyro__ | does the server ubuntu distro come with a c compiler? | 03:46 |
| Kyro__ | I know the client doesnt | 03:46 |
| tuvook | doubt it | 03:46 |
| cge | a1fa_: Can you access the internet with the livecd? | 03:46 |
| Fryguy-- | Kyro__: no, a c compiler is available in the build-essential package, as 3 people told you 5 minutes ago | 03:46 |
| icesword | Kyro__, dpkg -l gcc | 03:46 |
| a1fa_ | cge: its a 233mhz machine :P | 03:47 |
| === adam_ is now known as Adman65 | ||
| a1fa_ | but yeah | 03:47 |
| tuvook | but you can search the server packages page on the ubuntu wiki | 03:47 |
| _CitizenKane_ | Fryguy--, just doing mount will cause it to remount in rw? | 03:47 |
| a1fa_ | it takes 24h to boot into livecd | 03:47 |
| Meneertje | I have one question, anyone knows how you can switch off "view hidden files", because sometimes I have to switch "view hidden files" on, for example to mess around with icons and such... (.icons) but it seems that it sometimes doesn't want to go back to normal folder view? Is this a bug? | 03:47 |
| Kyro__ | Fryguy--, don't be so snappy it was just a question | 03:47 |
| BaW | .. Been trying to install 64 bit/desktop onto a intel quad core, however once i boot from the cd, screen goes blank and unable to do anything else | 03:47 |
| HardyOne | tuvook, I dont see a .deb on the site | 03:47 |
| Fryguy-- | _CitizenKane_: read the manpage, everything you need is in there, or google. thousands of people have remounted root as RW before | 03:47 |
| HardyOne | tuvook, got a link? | 03:47 |
| Adman65 | anyone gimme a hand installing themes? I downloaded some from gnomelook.org, but I can't figure out what to do with em | 03:47 |
| cge | a1fa_: Hmm... that does make things difficult. I suppose you could try booting the livecd into single-user or something. | 03:47 |
| * Lunks gives Adman65 | 03:47 | |
| Fryguy-- | Kyro__: and i just provided an answer | 03:47 |
| tuvook | Meneertje, try rt-click | 03:47 |
| Tann | amenado: I got the computer to connect to the network, but there is no internet | 03:47 |
| Meneertje | rt = (right click?) | 03:47 |
| a1fa_ | cge: then what? | 03:47 |
| Fryguy-- | Kyro__: that's how this channel works, you ask questions, and people either ignore you if they dont' know the answer, or they answer them. | 03:48 |
| Kyro__ | Fryguy--, you misunderstood - I was asking if the c compiler was included in the *server* distro not client distro | 03:48 |
| zero88 | Can anyone help me PLEASE. | 03:48 |
| jojom1 | Hi all. Are there any GRUB gurus in the house? I'm trying to install Gutsy from the Live CD and now amount of Googling, is helping. | 03:48 |
| cge | a1fa_: Basically, if you can get a shell and internet access, you can do a debian style bootstrap install, I believe. | 03:48 |
| tuvook | Meneertje, yes | 03:48 |
| === tuna-fish is now known as tuna | ||
| Meneertje | ok, i'll try that, thx. | 03:48 |
| Fryguy-- | Kyro__: the server and client ubuntus are exactly the same, same repositories, same everything, the only difference is the default set of packages and an option or 2 in the installer | 03:48 |
| Karsyth | anyone here that can make sense of this? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59995/ | 03:48 |
| Kyro__ | I am well aware you answered my client distro question | 03:48 |
| tuvook | jojom1, how can installing from livecd be a problem? | 03:48 |
| a1fa_ | that sounds good | 03:48 |
| HardyOne | jojom1, click on the install icon | 03:48 |
| cge | a1fa_: There isn't any documentation for it, but I did it about a year ago, using debian's instructions but using the ubuntu equivalents. | 03:48 |
| a1fa_ | i've done that before with debian | 03:48 |
| Kyro__ | okay thanks Fryguy-- | 03:48 |
| zero88 | Once i put my info into a .h file. what do i do with it? | 03:48 |
| Agrajag- | g'day, i've done a dist-upgrade to hardy, just wondering if there's a howto or anything on setting up pulseaudio? | 03:48 |
| cge | a1fa_: Then you should know what to do. It should be almost the same. | 03:49 |
| HardyOne | !hardy | Agrajag | 03:49 |
| ubotu | Agrajag: 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 | 03:49 |
| Fryguy-- | zero88: this isn't a programming channel, join ##c for c programming issues | 03:49 |
| tuvook | Agrajag, pulse's website? | 03:49 |
| tuvook | but thats not needed | 03:49 |
| tuvook | its Hardy's default | 03:49 |
| a1fa_ | cge: i have this POS terminal | 03:49 |
| Agrajag- | tuvook: not when you dist-upgrade | 03:49 |
| Fryguy-- | tuvook: ubuntu hardy defaults to using pulseaudio for it's sound architecture, and is somewhat baked into ubuntu like that, so it's actually suitable for #ubuntu+1 (but not here) | 03:49 |
| cge | Tann: It sounds like your iptables aren't set up right. | 03:49 |
| jojom1 | The Ubuntu install is failing at 94% (when the installer is installing GRUB) and the installer reports that the command grub-install '(hd0)' failed. | 03:49 |
| tuvook | I dist-upgrade | 03:50 |
| a1fa_ | there she goes | 03:50 |
| corinne_ | uh... | 03:50 |
| cge | Tann: Are you trying to use masquerading, or just bridge the two devices? | 03:50 |
| Fryguy-- | tuvook: what distro are you running right now? | 03:50 |
| tuvook | Fryguy--, true | 03:50 |
| corinne_ | Does anyone understand what I have to do? | 03:50 |
| tuvook | Fryguy--, ubuntu, Hardy | 03:50 |
| Fryguy-- | Tann: you aren't going to like this, but just buy a router. if you aren't experienced with networking, it's just a hassle to set up ip masquerading and NAT on a *nix machine. (I do it with pfsense, but I also have enough sense to research what i'm doing) | 03:51 |
| JoshJ | does /etc/rc.local run as root or as the user you're logging in as? | 03:51 |
| Gumby | JoshJ: root | 03:51 |
| tuvook | Tann, or use webmin | 03:51 |
| PackDude | Runs as root when the system starts | 03:51 |
| JoshJ | ah, okay. so "modprobe ndiswrapper" in there should do what i want, then. | 03:51 |
| tritium | JoshJ: it runs before any user is logged in | 03:51 |
| JoshJ | thanks | 03:51 |
| HardyOne | tuvook, please help me with vbox. I cant seem to find a deb | 03:52 |
| Gumby | Fryguy--: also a tool thats quite easy to use called ipkungfu. not sure if its still in development though | 03:52 |
| legend2440 | agrajag https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PulseAudio | 03:52 |
| tuvook | HardyOne, then you need more help than you think | 03:52 |
| Fryguy-- | HardyOne: it's freely available in the repositories | 03:52 |
| tuvook | HardyOne, goto virtualbox's website | 03:52 |
| tuvook | its that easy | 03:52 |
| Fryguy-- | it's IN THE REPOSITORY | 03:52 |
| PackDude | I hear OpenBSD makes good routers, if you don't mind learning another *nix OS | 03:52 |
| tuvook | that too | 03:52 |
| BaW | .. Been trying to install 64 bit/desktop onto a intel quad core, however once i boot from the cd, screen goes blank and unable to do anything else | 03:52 |
| legend2440 | Karsyth: how you doing? still got sound? | 03:53 |
| Karsyth | anyone here that can make sense of this? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59995/ | 03:53 |
| Fryguy-- | PackDude: eh, freebsd is more suitable i think, just because of pre-packaged products (m0n0wall and pfsense) | 03:53 |
| Karsyth | legend2440: yes sir | 03:53 |
| eriqjaffe | Does anybody know how to add to the Path environment variable? | 03:53 |
| Fryguy-- | BaW: boot using the second option instead of the first | 03:53 |
| Karsyth | legend2440: i even got an n64 emulator running and i configured a wired 360 controller | 03:53 |
| PackDude | I'm running Ubuntu 6.06.2 AMD64 on a dual core Opteron. Works great, even in X WIndows. | 03:53 |
| JoshJ | eriqjaffe, what shell? | 03:53 |
| Karsyth | legend2440: im doin real good :D | 03:53 |
| cge | Karsyth: probably not, unfortunately, but I'll look. | 03:53 |
| eriqjaffe | bash | 03:53 |
| BaW | Fryguy-- safe mode, tried it failed | 03:53 |
| Daworm | Query, can someone advise a good IRC bouncer for use on ubuntu? | 03:53 |
| Fryguy-- | eriqjaffe: assuming bash, export PATH=$PATH:/your/new/path/here | 03:53 |
| legend2440 | Karsyth: great | 03:53 |
| Daworm | that's not TOO complex to configure | 03:53 |
| Karsyth | cge: alright thanks | 03:53 |
| Fryguy-- | Daworm: irssi | 03:53 |
| isleshocky77 | Right now I can checkout fine from subversion on ubuntu box but when I go to commit I get an error: "svn: MKACTIVITY of '/!svn/act/dcd5f4f3-27cf-4258-a8c5-d8cd81c28dab': Could not read status line: Secure connection truncated" | 03:53 |
| JoshJ | yeah, what Fryguy-- said | 03:53 |
| JoshJ | there's a wy to do it in the .bashrc as well but that works | 03:54 |
| jojom1 | The Ubuntu install is failing at 94% (when the installer is installing GRUB) and the installer reports that the command "grub-install '(hd0)'" failed. I've tried running the grub installer manually ("sudo install-grub '(hd0)'") but that gives me the error: Could not find device for /boot: Not found or not a block device. | 03:54 |

| Karsyth | legend2440: do you have an ipod / zune / m3p player? | 03:54 |
| Starnestommy | Daworm: maybe dircproxy | 03:54 |
| Karsyth | legend2440: im thinking about getting something to manage that with, i just remember last time i tried that i lost my sound :/ | 03:54 |
| eriqjaffe | Josh, will that stick upon reboot? | 03:54 |
| jojom1 | My machine (an ASUS A6Ja notebook) has a single 100 GB SATA drive with Windows XP already installed. The machine has a recovery partition, the main partition (with Windows XP installed) and I've now added two new partitions for Ubuntu: an ext3 partition for the OS and a 2 GB swap partition. I'm trying to install Gutsy and have the machine dual boot. Running fdisk -l gives the following: | 03:55 |
| jojom1 | Disk /dev/sda: 100.0 GB, 100030242816 bytes | 03:55 |
| jojom1 | 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 12161 cylinders | 03:55 |
| jojom1 | Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes | 03:55 |

| jojom1 | /dev/sda1 1 243 1951866 1b Hidden W95 FAT32 | 03:55 |
| Fryguy-- | eriqjaffe: if you put it into .bash_profile or .bashrc then it will (assuming you are using bash) | 03:55 |
| JoshJ | yeah | 03:55 |
| legend2440 | Karsyth: sansa mp3 player is what i have | 03:55 |
| HardyOne | Fryguy--, ty | 03:55 |
| Karsyth | legend2440: what program do you use to manage it? | 03:55 |
| BaW | Fryguy-- safe mode, tried it failed | 03:55 |
| JoshJ | eriqjaffe, see Fryguy--'s post | 03:55 |
| cge | Karsyth: My guess is that the program just isn't going to work, if it's something that someone else hasn't already had success with. Winehq seems to indicate that only 50% of the rpcrt4 api has been implemented, so that's probably what is causing the problem. | 03:55 |
| Fryguy-- | BaW: you are probably out of luck then | 03:55 |
| Karsyth | cge: alright no biggy, thanks for checkin it out for me | 03:56 |
| Daworm | Fryguy--: with irssi - I can connect another client to that and read allthe history etc. ? | 03:56 |
| Fryguy-- | Daworm: yes | 03:56 |
| BaW | Fryguy-- that blows | 03:56 |
| eriqjaffe | I have that in the .bashrc file already, but it always complains about /usr/games | 03:56 |
| Fryguy-- | Daworm: or just run it in a screen session, which is better anyway | 03:56 |
| egc | man, fedora has a bomb-a** installer | 03:56 |
| eriqjaffe | ...and I see it in /etc/environment, as well. | 03:56 |
| HardyOne | Fryguy--, how do I add myself to the vbox user group? | 03:56 |
| cge | BaW: How experienced are you with GNU/Linux environments? | 03:56 |
| legend2440 | Karsyth: just nautilus. i just open it in nautilus and copy files to it | 03:56 |
| tuvook | ubotu, virtualbox | 03:56 |
| ubotu | virtualbox is a x86 !virtualizer. A !free edition is available in !Gutsy as 'virtualbox-ose'. A non-free edition is available at http://virtualbox.org for most Ubuntu releases (help in #vbox) - Setup details at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox | 03:56 |
| Daworm | well, I'll be connecting from work so will have to find a port I can connect to on it first. But don't have SSH access by default. | 03:56 |
| Kyro__ | bleh i have to log out to reload my users and groups or something - anyway to make it do that without relogging? | 03:57 |
| cge | BaW: You can always try init=/bin/bash | 03:57 |
| tritium | HardyOne: adduser <username> <groupname> | 03:57 |
| Fryguy-- | HardyOne: edit /etc/group, or use the gui administration tool system | administration | users and groups (note you have to log out and log back in for changes to take effect) | 03:57 |
| HardyOne | ty | 03:57 |
| tuvook | ubotu, samba | 03:57 |
| ubotu | 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. | 03:57 |
| Karsyth | legend2440: smart, i should have done that but ive already got a library and it would be a pain to organize | 03:57 |
| legend2440 | Karsyth: you use amarok? | 03:57 |
| nikrud | Fryguy--: eww, editing /etc/group by hand ?? | 03:57 |
| Fryguy-- | nikrud: why eww | 03:57 |
| Fryguy-- | it's faster | 03:57 |
| Fryguy-- | and easier | 03:57 |
| nikrud | Fryguy--: sudo adduser user group . done | 03:58 |
| Karsyth | legend2440: nope, i uninstalled all of that when i was fixing my sound. should i use amarok? | 03:58 |
| tritium | Fryguy--: adduser is easiest | 03:58 |
| Fryguy-- | for me, and most other people who are proficient with *nix | 03:58 |
| Fryguy-- | tritium: not when the user already exists, adduser is useless | 03:58 |
| cge | nikrud: Sometimes one wants to do things that can't be done with such commands. | 03:58 |
| tuvook | ubotu, adduser | 03:58 |
| ubotu | To add new users to your Ubuntu system, follow the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AddUsersHowto - For administrative privileges, users need to be made members of the group "admin" - See !sudo | 03:58 |
| tritium | Fryguy--: no, it's not. | 03:58 |
| Daworm | Fryguy--: well, I'll be connecting from work so will have to find a port I can connect to on it first. But don't have SSH access by default. | 03:58 |
| tritium | Fryguy--: adduser <username (even existing user)> <groupname> | 03:58 |
| tuvook | ubotu, ssh | 03:58 |
| ubotu | SSH is the Secure SHell protocol. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto for usage. Putty is a nice SSH client for Windows; it can be found at http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ | 03:58 |
| legend2440 | Karsyth: i never tried it but its hear it pretty good | 03:58 |
| tritium | !botabuse | tuvook | 03:59 |
| ubotu | tuvook: Please investigate with me only in /msg or in #ubuntu-bots (type also /msg ubotu Bot). Don't use commands in the public channels if you don't know if they really exist. Also avoid adding joke/useless factoids. | 03:59 |
| tuvook | putty from work | 03:59 |
| Fryguy-- | sudo vim /etc/group (enter) /group (enter) I,(username)(ESC):wq! is pretty easy for me | 03:59 |
| jojom1 | Sorry, here's the fdisk output using paste.ubuntu.nl: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59996/ | 03:59 |
| tuvook | tritium, you don't think they need it and my use was apropo? | 03:59 |
| tuvook | saves alot of redundant typing | 03:59 |
| tritium | tuvook: I just see a lot of ubotu queries from you in the past few minutes | 03:59 |
| tuvook | people are not using the bot at al | 03:59 |
| Kyro | omg virtualbox rocks | 03:59 |
| tuvook | I'm not using it for me | 03:59 |
| tritium | tuvook: okay, just a reminder. Thanks. | 03:59 |
| cge | tuvook: Why not use the bot to message people, though? | 04:00 |
| tuvook | for those who don't know where to look | 04:00 |
| Daworm | Starnestommy: Hurm, looks to be a toss up between IRSSI and Dircproxy... | 04:00 |
| Kyro | im installing vista in ubuntu.. this is crazy | 04:00 |
| Fryguy-- | Daworm: irssi is far better than dircproxy | 04:00 |
| tritium | Daworm: I'd recommend irssi | 04:00 |
| tuvook | cge just remembered I could do that | 04:00 |
| nikrud | tuvook: ubotu, ssh | <nick> is good, it gets their attention | 04:00 |
| tritium | tuvook: :) | 04:00 |
| tuvook | forgot the syntax | 04:00 |
| Fryguy-- | this discussion shouldn't even be close | 04:00 |
| tuvook | nikrud, ty | 04:00 |
| evilbug | how can i restore a bootcamp partition if it's in ntfs? (since mac os doesn't natively handle ntfs) | 04:01 |

| evilbug | tritium- Fryguy-- i know that,it's just that no one is answering atm.pretty late at night.i saved a disk-clone as an image (.dmg) and i'm trying to re-write it to the windows partition but osx can't handle ntfs.so i'm wondering if i can possibly use a live cd to do this? | 04:03 |
| Karsyth | legend2440: not at the moment, im still building my new pc. my old hard drive fried so im using ubuntu in the meantime | 04:03 |
| tritium | evilbug: no idea. | 04:03 |
| orran | yeah:) | 04:03 |
| cge | evilbug: dd, maybe? You'd have to look into what dmg file actually are. | 04:04 |
| Karsyth | legend2440: i tried installing xp but i got all kinds of bs on my code being invalid | 04:04 |
| orran | My system won't Read the thing | 04:04 |
| tuvook | ubotu, gpartion | orran | 04:04 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about gpartion - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 04:04 |
| cge | evilbug: Of course, I should warn you that my suggestions are likely to cause your computer to explode. | 04:04 |
| evilbug | i know what a .dmg,it's just the problem of osx not being able to write to ntfs or read it. | 04:04 |

| tritium | NemesisD: sudo invoke-rc.d gdm restart | 04:05 |
| tuvook | NemesisD, restart gdm | 04:05 |
| cge | evilbug: I mean, I'm not sure what dmg files are in terms of formatting. You might be able to just loop mount it (sudo mount -o loop dmg_file /mnt). | 04:05 |
| orran | I'm adding a second hard drive to my system | 04:05 |
| NemesisD | damn that did it | 04:05 |
| NemesisD | im troubled this problem produces nothing in X11's logs | 04:06 |

| NemesisD | but im too buy to look into it now | 04:06 |
| NemesisD | thanks guys | 04:06 |
| tuvook | np | 04:06 |
| tritium | tuvook: invoke-rc.d is preferred | 04:06 |
| tuvook | tritium, never used the invoke-rc.d | 04:06 |
| cge | tritium: But that didn't exist in the old days! | 04:06 |
| tritium | tuvook, cge: it obeys runlevel constraints, as well as any local policies that have been set | 04:07 |
| tuvook | cool | 04:07 |

| berlylabs | xq: i cant figure this out to save my life, noone can find the answer | 04:13 |
| shawn__ | does anybody know where i can find a 3d open gl driver for an ati x1300 graphics card? | 04:13 |
| berlylabs | xq: i edited the files by telnetting to the port they are running on | 04:13 |
| berlylabs | then exited and did ripd SIGHUP | 04:13 |
| grubfails | Grub keeps spitting out fatal errors during alt. Cd | 04:13 |
| berlylabs | this is the first time I've ever done that | 04:13 |
| orran | LOL | 04:13 |
| xq | berlylabs: It looks like it's a file permissions issue. What is trying to access/read/write to it? It may need permission to do so (read/write/execute)? | 04:13 |
| berlylabs | zebra SIGHUP doesn't give that error | 04:13 |
| berlylabs | it has permission | 04:13 |
| cge | Varanger: Are you joking, or are you actually trying to find it? | 04:13 |
| Accuracy | ok I think I found it | 04:13 |
| Accuracy | it's not really in a logical location, though | 04:14 |
| DrIP | wow | 04:14 |

| Accuracy | but thanks for the help, tritium | 04:14 |
| tritium | zedfloyd: the actual user name | 04:14 |
| Varanger | cge: I am not joking. The closer thing is tzselect. | 04:14 |

| shawn__ | does anybody know where i can find a 3d open gl driver for an ati x1300 graphics card? | 04:14 |
| cge | Varanger: It isn't actually there any more, as far as I can tell. | 04:14 |

| orran | So does any one know how to Format a hard drive | 04:15 |

| cge | Varanger: Yes. See bug #148891, for example. | 04:15 |

| shawn__ | note? | 04:16 |
| xq | berlylabs: Because permissions and another instance of Zebra running is usually what is causing that error for most people. | 04:16 |

| killown | j #gnome | 04:17 |
| zedfloyd | tritium thank you so much... i will try it! :) | 04:17 |
| Karsyth | cge: it just says, "get the source" it doesnt indicate where or which version. i want to do it correctly, instead of guessing. guessing has messed up my sound | 04:17 |

| BuckWild | VirtualOne, does that work for 7.10, I'm talking about gutsy, not feisty | 04:19 |
| grubfails | Same here, plz help w/ my prob | 04:19 |
| cge | Karsyth: It probably isn't worth it. You would have to download the wine sources, get an old patch to work with new code, which would probably involve some work in C and knowledge of wine internals, and then compile it. | 04:19 |
| Accuracy | is there a way to use ubuntu server edition and have it run with a desktop and everything? | 04:20 |
| Karsyth | cge: alright. thanks anyways | 04:20 |

| Tann | amenado: to answer your question earlier, i can ping yahoo. I set the IP of my windows comp to 192.168.2.4 | 04:29 |
| orran | egc: what OS are you on right now | 04:29 |
| BuckWild | I don't know why ubuntu doesn't have a secure remote desktop installed by default in the system | 04:29 |
| BuckWild | who in their right mind would ever open a VNC connection for remote access outside their home network | 04:30 |

| BuckWild | s/VNC/SSH; | 04:31 |
| Fryguy-- | BuckWild: yah vnc isn't that great, hence why i listed several things that were NOT vnc | 04:31 |
| BuckWild | I actually do need something, I need FreeNX to work, and it doesn't | 04:31 |
| amenado | DrIP ubuntu wireless? what is that? inside_router ? what is that? | 04:31 |
| Fryguy-- | BuckWild: use xpra, it's better than freenx | 04:31 |

| sainzeo | hey everyone - what's the best/quickest way to convert *.rmvb files using Ubuntu? | 04:31 |
| Fryguy-- | sainzeo: mencoder probably | 04:32 |
| grubfails | Anyone? | 04:32 |
| tsukasa | okay, im running ubuntu x64 on a 15" santa rosa macbook pro. Everything ive read says that sleep works out of the box for this laptop. The option for it doesn't even show up in the power manager or the shutdown panel, and acpitool -s freezes my machine. What gives? | 04:32 |
| amenado | DrIP if you have a picture of the layout, its worth a thousand words | 04:32 |
| tritium | orran: have you looked at the output from dmesg to determine that it's being detected at boot? | 04:32 |
| sainzeo | Fryguy--: yeah I figured, but I'm not sure how to get the codecs that are necessary for conversion working properly....would you have more step-by-step information about this? | 04:32 |
| DrIP | amenado: ok... holdon..... | 04:32 |
| Fryguy-- | sainzeo: no but google has plenty | 04:32 |
| BuckWild | Fryguy--, what is xpra, google is turning up nothing | 04:32 |
| orran | tritium: Yes it's on me secondary with my Burner | 04:33 |
| shawn__ | how do i edit text files? | 04:33 |
| Fryguy-- | BuckWild: you must be pretty bad at google http://partiwm.org/browser/README.xpra | 04:33 |
| tritium | orran: so what's the error you're getting? | 04:33 |
| orran | egc: what all are you using your solaris for | 04:33 |
| grubfails | Shawn: nano filename | 04:33 |
| Tann | amenado: sorry. grr, i can be such an idiot some times | 04:33 |
| shawn__ | ok | 04:33 |
| Karsyth | is there a way i can setup Pidgin Messenger to like flash the screen or shake or something when someone says my name in IRC? sometimes the sound just doesnt cut it | 04:33 |
| orran | It just keeps scanning of it | 04:34 |
| BuckWild | actually I'm not, just tired from 3 hours of trying to get something that doesn't work working | 04:34 |
| xphox | . op | 04:34 |
| xphox | . hop | 04:34 |
| xphox | .op | 04:34 |
| Fryguy-- | Karsyth: there is a notification plugin that you might want to look at. pidgin's implementation of irc is pretty poor though, you should look at other alternatives | 04:34 |
| BuckWild | Fryguy--, blah, this is the whole "run an X server on Windows" method | 04:34 |
| tsukasa | okay, im running ubuntu x64 on a 15" santa rosa macbook pro. Everything ive read says that sleep works out of the box for this laptop. The option for it doesn't even show up in the power manager or the shutdown panel, and acpitool -s freezes my machine. What gives? | 04:34 |
| BuckWild | I've done stuff like this already, I wanted something like remote desktop for windows | 04:35 |
| Fryguy-- | BuckWild: what's wrong with that? | 04:35 |
| Tann | i'm not as stupid as i may sound sometimes. i have my moments | 04:35 |
| Fryguy-- | xming works very well on windows | 04:35 |
| BuckWild | Fryguy--, for one thing it's slow | 04:35 |
| Werdna | <3 xming | 04:35 |
| BuckWild | real slow | 04:35 |
| Tmcarr89 | Anyone know what I can do about root certificates in Linux? | 04:36 |
| Fryguy-- | BuckWild: did you even BOTHER to read the link i sent you? or are you going to make assumptions based on pre-existing knowledge without researching alternatives | 04:36 |
| grubfails | Buckwild, use ssh user@ip.com -X, login, then run a program and it forwards it to remote computer | 04:36 |
| TrustNoOne | is there a channel for yellow dog? | 04:36 |
| shawn__ | how do you save after using nano? | 04:36 |
| BuckWild | second off, I like to actually use the desktop environment when I'm doing remote desktop, not use the CLI to launch GUI applications that a lot of times I don't even know the command name of | 04:36 |
| Flannel | shawn__: ctrl-O | 04:36 |
| Fryguy-- | grubfails: we are well past that point of the conversation, thank you for your useless input though | 04:36 |
| Flannel | shawn__: (write Out) -- ^ means ctrl across the bottom of the screen. | 04:36 |
| cute_bettong | i have a hard drive that was set up as a secondary hard drive in windows xp and when i placed it as a secondary hard drive in my ubuntu box it told me that i don't have the nessisary file permissions to access the files, if i switch to root i can grab some of them but if i try as my normal user i cannot, how would i change the permissions of every file and folder on the drive so that i can copy them from the NTFS drive on to my ubuntu drive, so | 04:37 |
| egc | wow | 04:37 |
| grubfails | Welcome | 04:37 |
| Fryguy-- | BuckWild: so then spin up an environment to connect to | 04:37 |
| smallfry | i need a FREE program yo transfer video files from hard drive to a COBY MP3 Player? sny ideas? | 04:37 |
| zcat[1]_ | !ntfs | cute_bettong | 04:37 |
| Fryguy-- | BuckWild: seriously, just read the readme | 04:37 |
| ubotu | cute_bettong: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - For write access, see /msg ubotu NTFS-3g or /msg ubotu FUSE | 04:37 |
| __catron3 | Steam Machine | 04:37 |
| DrIP | amenado: ok... pic made | 04:37 |
| DrIP | amenado: let me upload | 04:37 |
| orran | egc: I like using solaris more because the system is so what fun to play around with. | 04:38 |
| zcat[1]_ | cute_bettong: linux doesn't understand ntfs permissions and owners .. so when you mount the filesystem you can specify a single set of permissions and/or a single owner for all the files | 04:38 |
| BuckWild | no clipboard sharing...seriously, why can't there be a rdesktop equivalent for linux that's free | 04:38 |
| BuckWild | nomachine is nice | 04:38 |
| zcat[1]_ | cute_bettong: the like ubout said should explain this better than I can | 04:38 |
| BuckWild | but it has it's commercial limitations | 04:38 |
| TrustNoOne | is there a channel for yellow dog? | 04:38 |
| egc | orran: http://opensolaris.org/os/project/indiana/resources/getit/ | 04:39 |
| orran | tritium: anything? :) | 04:39 |
| Fryguy-- | BuckWild: pretty trivial to set up clipboard communications between running x servers | 04:39 |
| egc | you might like that one too, then | 04:39 |
| DrIP | amenado: http://img219.imageshack.us/img219/860/32451701yw4.png | 04:39 |
| Meat | Greetings all, so, I've downloaded a plugin for pigeon, but its an i386 plugin, and I'm running AMD64, is there anyway for me to make it work anyhow? | 04:39 |
| BuckWild | whatevers, I'm not losing another three hours sleep tonight, I'll give that a go tomorrow maybe if I have the time, thanks | 04:39 |
| sainzeo | Meat: you shouldn't have any problems with an i386 plugin... | 04:39 |
| cute_bettong | what would be a simple dirty way to do it? im not trying to go through howto's i can view the drive in nautilus but cannot run any of the files or view any of them without dropping to root, and even then it will _not_ give me the permissions to copy all of them to the ubuntu home directory.. i have been struggleing with this for quite some time, >.< lol | 04:39 |
| tritium | orran: sorry, no. If you don't use my nick, I'll likely miss some of your messages. | 04:39 |
| jarn | I have two external drives that, when I try to mount them from the command line, tell me it's already mounted. But it's not. | 04:39 |
| egc | hehe | 04:40 |
| Meat | sainzeo: When it pops up to install I get an error telling me "Wrong architecture" | 04:40 |
| amenado | DrIP now can you ping from ubuntu desktop to the wired router? | 04:40 |
| sainzeo | Meat: which plugin are you attempting to download for Pidgin? | 04:40 |
| Fryguy-- | Meat: no | 04:40 |
| __catron3 | Steam Machine | 04:40 |
| DrIP | amenado: no. | 04:40 |
| Fryguy-- | contribute some time and port the plugin to amd64 | 04:40 |
| orran | tritium: kool | 04:40 |
| Meat | sainzeo: XFire | 04:40 |
| zcat[1]_ | cute_bettong: from the terminal, sudo mount /dev/hdb1 /mount/windows -o umask=0 or something close to that | 04:40 |
| DrIP | amenado: if i enable my wired my internet only goes to the wired | 04:40 |
| Tann | amenado: my setup is the same as DrIP, except instead of a router i have a switch | 04:40 |
| shawn__ | ? | 04:41 |
| amenado | DrIP what is the interface name of ubuntu desktop towards the wired router? its ip address? | 04:41 |
| === Accuracy is now known as Axle|Away | ||
| shawn__ | SO WHAT DO I TYPE TO SAVE IT? | 04:41 |
| orran | egc: when I download open sound how does it run on solaris | 04:41 |
| DrIP | amenado: eth1 and 192.168.0.1 | 04:41 |
| shawn__ | i need the whole code | 04:41 |
| egc | orran: you use pkgadd to install it | 04:41 |
| zcat[1]_ | cute_bettong: you could check the manpage for mount, it's explained there too.. | 04:41 |
| Black_Magic | amenado: Yiou here i guess you stoped talking to me because i put my senses together and figured out the Easy fix before reading the guide could you give me link to guide...? | 04:41 |
| tritium | orran, egc: open solaris is easily discussed in a /query (private message). Please keep on topic. | 04:41 |
| amenado | Tann then pay attention and I will be giving similar advise to DrIP | 04:41 |
| shawn__ | how do i save after i use nano | 04:42 |
| Meat | sainzeo: http://gfire.sourceforge.net/snapshots/ if it helps | 04:42 |
| cute_bettong | zcat[1]_: no this script isen't safe, it's asking me if i want to take all my disks (By default the disks will be writable only by root and | 04:42 |
| shawn__ | what do i type | 04:42 |
| DrIP | amenado: the wireless is wlan0 and 192.168.1.55 | 04:42 |
| cute_bettong | Elphias (elphias) | 04:42 |
| Fryguy-- | doesn't nano have on screen helping listing commands? | 04:42 |
| orran | tritium | 04:42 |
| shawn__ | they dont work | 04:42 |
| orran | tritium: OK sorry | 04:42 |
| amenado | Black_Magic-> what was the issue again? i cant remember what i did five minutes ago | 04:42 |
| cl1_ | hai | 04:42 |
| sainzeo | Meat: have you tried compiling from the .tar.bz2 file? | 04:42 |
| cute_bettong | Do you want to make the disk writable by all users instead? (y/n) ) this is wrong, it's wanting to handel all disks the same way.. this is not safe it breaks the protection of ubuntu from what i can see. | 04:42 |
| Fryguy-- | considering I _JUST_ opened up nano and _JUST_ saved a file using the command ON THE SCREEN, i'm going to have to say that you are wrong | 04:42 |
| tritium | orran: no worries, buddy :) | 04:42 |
| egc | tritium: yes, that was fairer than kicking me | 04:42 |
| Black_Magic | amenado, remeber my wireless problem...you where right it was the firewall... | 04:42 |
| Jack_Sparrow | shawn__, If it is outside of your/home you need to edit with sudo nano | 04:42 |
| amenado | DrIP what is the ip address of the wired router? | 04:43 |
| DrIP | amenado: 192.168.0.2 | 04:43 |
| shawn__ | ok | 04:43 |
| zcat[1]_ | cute_bettong: no, the script will (or should) only be talking about ntfs disks there.. | 04:43 |
| orran | egc: do you want to private message | 04:43 |
| Fryguy-- | Jack_Sparrow: that's not strictly true | 04:43 |
| Black_Magic | amenado, i downloaded Firstarter a couple months ago...and turned it on by accedent then i ended up removing firestarting forgetting to turn it off that was my entire problem thats when the problems started | 04:43 |
| Meat | sainzeo: I have not, I've only tried the .deb | 04:43 |
| tritium | egc: you were askig for it, but hey, I only removed, and didn't ban :) | 04:43 |
| tritium | asking* | 04:43 |
| egc | haha | 04:43 |
| amenado | Black_Magic its fixed now? | 04:43 |
| egc | youre just being mean ;) | 04:43 |
| Black_Magic | amenado, so i reinstalled firestarter i was already connected i just pressed the stop firewall button and vralla...Internet... | 04:43 |
| cute_bettong | zcat[1]_: how can i be sure that it's only working on the NTFS disks and not the EXT3 disks? is there a way to tell? | 04:43 |
| zcat[1]_ | cute_bettong: OK, forget the script... what's the drive that has windows on it. slave drive? | 04:43 |
| sainzeo | Meat: it probably couldn't hurt to try using the tar package | 04:43 |
| amenado | DrIp so you cant ping 192.168.0.2 from 192.168.0.1 ? | 04:43 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Fryguy--, Understood, but in his case he is hitting permissions.. and is true.. I was just generalizing to avoid long explanations | 04:43 |
| Black_Magic | amenado, mmhmm im scared to reboot because its done this before i have internet i update and upgrade then reboot and back to square one.. | 04:44 |
| DrIP | amenado: no. eth1 is not enabled... | 04:44 |
| Fryguy-- | Jack_Sparrow: there's a difference between generalizing and being wrong | 04:44 |
| ironeye | Hi there, could anyone tell me if each computer running of the same wireless router have different ip addresses? | 04:44 |
| Black_Magic | Jack_Sparrow, just to let you know im using Vannilla Ubuntu :P | 04:44 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Fee free to answer his question and stop being rude | 04:44 |
| egc | tritium: besides, there may be other ubuntu users dual booting solaris as well, who may benefit from sharing these answers | 04:44 |
| Fryguy-- | ironeye: of course | 04:44 |
| amenado | Black_Magic-> congrats to figuring out the problem..a lil nudge sometimes helps :P | 04:44 |
| Meat | sainzeo: alright, ive got the file, lets see if i can remember how this goes.... | 04:44 |
| egc | so, it's a tossup | 04:44 |
| Black_Magic | amenado, Quote | 04:44 |
| cute_bettong | zcat[1]_: yes the drive is setup as the secondary drive...the primary is a sata2 drive and the secondary is an IDE drive on ide channel 1 the drive is called Storage. | 04:45 |
| sainzeo | Meat: normally you have to first type " ./configure " | 04:45 |
| david_ | I figured out my problem installing drivers for WUSB54G wireless: (this is dumb: ---> I was typing: sudo ndiswrapper -i WUSB54G.inf instead of this --->sudo ndiswrapper -i home/david/Linksys/WUSB54G.inf | 04:45 |
| ironeye | thats ok then thanks Fryguy | 04:45 |
| * Black_Magic Amenado, Somtimes the easiest problem is the hardest to figure out. | 04:45 | |
| amenado | DrIP if not enabled how do you expect to ping 192.168.0.2 ? | 04:45 |
| Black_Magic | amenado, and or simplest | 04:45 |
| tritium | egc: No, I wasn't being mean. You were a bit out of line with your comment. Peace, let's move on. Welcome back, friend. | 04:45 |
| Fryguy-- | Jack_Sparrow: also it's quite a security hazard to have people just start sudoing everything. There's a reason there's a root user and a normal user who doesn' thave root permissiosn | 04:45 |
| cute_bettong | zcat[1]_: well it would be ide0 if it where ide only system | 04:45 |
| orran | tritium: are you running any other types of Linux | 04:45 |
| zcat[1]_ | cute_bettong: it's already mounted as Storage? that might make things easier... | 04:45 |
| amenado | Black_Magic-> hardest? try to figure out a woman..hehehe | 04:45 |
| DrIP | amenado: i can not, if i were to enable it my internet would go down... | 04:45 |
| Black_Magic | Amenado, do you want my iwconfig ifconfig route -n and cat /etc/resolve.conf | 04:45 |
| tritium | orran: no, I've used ubuntu exclusively since 2004. | 04:46 |
| Black_Magic | Amenado, for future refrence.. | 04:46 |
| egc | tritium: agreed. Now in the past | 04:46 |
| DrIP | amenado: ubuntu chooses the greater speed? | 04:46 |
| amenado | Black_Magic-> if its resolved, i dont need to see it, besides for future, i cant recall what i did five minutes ago..heh | 04:46 |
| orran | tritium: how advance is you system | 04:46 |
| Jack_Sparrow | shawn__, what file are you trying to edit and what directory are you trytin to save it in and what error are you getting | 04:46 |
| jarn | I have two external drives that, when I try to mount them from the command line, I'm told they're already mounted. However, when I try to unmount them, I'm told they're not mounted. | 04:46 |
| zcat[1]_ | cute_bettong: open a terminal and type: sudo mount /media/Storage -o remount,umask=0 | 04:46 |
| cute_bettong | zcat[1]_: yea the computer already sees the drive..but won't mount it untill i click places storage then it asks me for my root password to mount the drive.. it's really weard and i have not encounterd the issue before, but it dosen't change the rest of the file permissions untill i do a "sudo nautilus" in terminall | 04:46 |
| tritium | egc: :) Agreed, and you're right, there may be people with that very question. Glad you're here with the experience. | 04:46 |
| corinne_ | Hey guys! | 04:46 |
| zcat[1]_ | cute_bettong: if that works, it should fix the permissions for you | 04:46 |
| tritium | orran: I don't understand your question | 04:47 |
| corinne_ | I don't know what I did, but it just suddenly found my drive! | 04:47 |
| corinne_ | yay! | 04:47 |
| shawn__ | IM TRYING TO EDIT MY ATI FILE | 04:47 |
| amenado | DrIP am confused, why are you not enabling the nic towards the wired router so you can reach cl1 cl2 cl3 ? | 04:47 |
| shawn__ | my xorg config | 04:47 |
| shawn__ | 1st | 04:47 |
| Jack_Sparrow | shawn__, your xorg.conf file ? | 04:47 |
| Kyro | will Virtual Box allow me to sync iTunes with an iPod? and play my music through Ubuntus ALSA? | 04:47 |
| shawn__ | to set the pci to the right slot | 04:47 |
| zcat[1]_ | cute_bettong: if that works, it should fix the permissions for you (mount the drive normally, then type what I saud, that should leave the drive mounted but swap the permission mask) | 04:47 |
| cute_bettong | zcat[1]_: ok so then i unmount the drive and then remount it? | 04:47 |
| Black_Magic | amenado, i mean to know what working and not working is.. | 04:47 |
| shawn__ | so i can use my graphics card | 04:47 |
| Jack_Sparrow | shawn__, that requires sudo nano.,. as I said earlier/ | 04:47 |
| DrIP | amenado: if i were to enable... i can not access my internet | 04:47 |
| Meat | While Im working on that package, any ideas as to why after a couple hours of use my compiz slows to a crawl? | 04:47 |
| Fryguy-- | Kyro: not the free version | 04:47 |
| orran | tritium: plug-in are you using with you system | 04:47 |
| shawn__ | i know ive done it | 04:47 |
| shawn__ | but i knwo my xserver is going to crash | 04:48 |
| Kyro | bugger :) thanks Fryguy-- | 04:48 |
| shawn__ | i gotta restart | 04:48 |
| shawn__ | brb | 04:48 |
| orran | tritium: what's you computer Spec's | 04:48 |
| Jack_Sparrow | shawn__, one sec | 04:48 |
| shawn__ | maybe | 04:48 |
| shawn__ | ok? | 04:48 |
| zcat[1]_ | cute_bettong: if you want it mounted that way permanently and not just for now, that's a little more complex | 04:48 |
| Kyro | lol shawn__ | 04:48 |
| amenado | DrIP how exactly are you enabling it? are you also changing the route table? | 04:48 |
| DrIP | amenado: i can deal with that later, i know the other half works, please step me hrough the other stuff | 04:48 |
| tritium | orran: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam (Toshiba Tecra A2) | 04:48 |
| rarez1 | Can anyone help with a Atheros wireless card getting it setup? | 04:48 |
| Jack_Sparrow | shawn__, write this down sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg or sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg (to just set res) If you get locked out Select vesa as your video card and 1024 max rex. Use tab or enter to accept all other defaults | 04:48 |
| DrIP | amenado: i just do: sudo ifconfig eth1 up | 04:48 |
| squidink | does gdm spawn a new X session when a user logs in? | 04:49 |
| shawn__ | okay | 04:49 |
| shawn__ | hold on | 04:49 |
| zcat[1]_ | gtg start dinner ... if what I said doesn't work just hang around and someone else will help you :) | 04:49 |
| cute_bettong | zcat[1]_: what i was going to do was swap all the perms to me as regular user copy them to my ubuntu drive and use qtparted to reformat the drive ext3 so that it was more linux freindly then again use it as storage.. so i figured things would be easyer on my linuxbox. am i right in assumeing that this is the easyer way...and thank you so much for helping me ^_^ | 04:49 |
| Fryguy-- | squidink: no | 04:49 |
| iobelix | quick question: network manager defaults to a different wireless essid everytime i switch the computer on. i tried running sudo iwconfig wlan0 essid "myessid" but have to run this command everytime to be able to connect to my own network (sometimes even this does not work, as trying to connect to my essid simply defaults back to another essid) | 04:49 |
| amenado | DrIP okay lets step back a lil, paste the ifconfig; iwconfig; route -n; cat /etc/resolv.conf and sudo iptables -vL of your ubuntu desktop | 04:49 |
| biouser | any idea why my bittorrent downloads don't start? | 04:49 |
| amenado | DrIP okay lets step back a lil, paste the ifconfig; iwconfig; route -n; cat /etc/resolv.conf and sudo iptables -vL of your ubuntu desktop ..in pastebin okay? | 04:49 |
| squidink | Is there a way to change the dpi of X without restarting it? | 04:49 |
| DrIP | ok | 04:49 |
| orran | tritium: you don't use a desktop | 04:49 |
| ccvp | is there an open source program to capture FLV streams on the fly(ie: youtube, liveleak, etc), and autoconvert them into standalone FLV files? so can uploadto facebook, or whatever, etc. | 04:49 |
| Black_Magic | amenado, nice... | 04:50 |
| zcat[1]_ | cute_bettong: yeah, that's about what I'd do.. | 04:50 |
| corinne_ | I think whatayacallit.. | 04:50 |
| tritium | orran: not currently. I also have a mythbuntu frontend/backend. | 04:50 |
| corinne_ | I think the HAL file manager might have something to do with the SeaAgent thing | 04:50 |
| robc4 | anyone had a problem with the latest ubuntu-docs update? | 04:50 |
| amenado | Black_Magic-> same steps we went through to resolve network issues.. | 04:50 |
| prateek | hello, i am getting Failed to fetch http://in.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/x/xmoto/xmoto-data_0.3.2-1_all.deb Size mismatch | 04:50 |
| prateek | while trying to download xmoto | 04:50 |
| shawn__ | ok | 04:50 |
| shawn__ | will do brb | 04:50 |
| Jack_Sparrow | shawn__, If you want someone to look over your xorg.conf sudo apt-get install pastebinit && cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | pastebinit (Provide Pastebin link in channel) | 04:50 |
| prateek | tried apt-get clean and update as well | 04:50 |
| Black_Magic | amenado, know why i cant set -b "Pastebin URL" for pastebinit to i finnaly fixed my wireless problem after 2months.. | 04:50 |
| Black_Magic | and it worked a couple weeks ago i upgraded to Hardy | 04:50 |
| Black_Magic | and then rebooted.. | 04:50 |
| Black_Magic | and vralla back to square one.. | 04:50 |
| Black_Magic | hopefully it stays fixed but too scared to restart.. | 04:50 |
| cute_bettong | zcat[1]_: so im on the right track so that command you gave to me should work? or do i have to jump through hoops because of NTFS's crappyness XD lol | 04:50 |
| FloodBot3 | Black_Magic: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 04:50 |
| prateek | anyone know what seems to be the problem? | 04:50 |
| iobelix | is there anyway to specify which wireless essid network manager should default to, while retaining the ability to roam and connect to other wireless networks when i wish to? | 04:51 |
| shawn__ | okay | 04:51 |
| Black_Magic | amenado, didnt mean to re-type that | 04:51 |
| orran | egc: do you know how to format a hard drive in Linux | 04:51 |
| shawn__ | i might do that if this doesnt work | 04:51 |
| shawn__ | brb | 04:51 |
| Black_Magic | orran, Gparted.. | 04:51 |
| iobelix | orran, pop in the live cd , hit alt f2 and run gksudo gparted | 04:51 |
| corinne_ | shawn_, don't format it | 04:51 |
| corinne_ | mine just started working | 04:51 |
| amenado | Black_Magic-> your default policy is DROP in your firewall, you may want to change that to ACCEPT..but it is your call, am assuming you are familiar enuff with firewalls | 04:51 |
| egc | orran: i use GPartEd | 04:51 |
| corinne_ | there is a way to do it | 04:51 |
| zcat[1]_ | cute_bettong: do the normal click and enter password thing, then open a terminal and type what I saud (sudo mount blah blah..) and that should remount it with permission for everyone to read it. | 04:51 |
| corinne_ | I don't know what I did, but it worked | 04:51 |
| orran | Black_Magic: Thanks | 04:52 |
| orran | Bye Back | 04:52 |
| Black_Magic | amenado, im not... | 04:52 |
| prateek | hello, i am getting Failed to fetch http://in.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/x/xmoto/xmoto-data_0.3.2-1_all.deb Size mismatch | 04:52 |
| DrIP | amenado: http://rafb.net/p/bR7snQ84.html | 04:52 |
| xjkx | ubuntu does not boot | 04:53 |
| iobelix | prateek, try using another ubuntu server to download the package? | 04:53 |
| amenado | Black_Magic-> the thing is once you flush the iptables, old policies remain, so you may want to set the policies and set the rules | 04:53 |
| prateek | iobelix, trying with the main server | 04:53 |
| cute_bettong | zcat[1]_: so i type sudo /media/Storage -o remount,umask=0 | 04:53 |
| vatzec | (I've said this two days ago AFAIR, but got no answer, hope there's someone here who can help me now) I have a server which I administrate via SSH but the pain is that it's connected via wireless so connection drops occur from time to time, I'm trying to make it perform a check every 5 mins, I've already posted a thread at the Ubuntu forums, but it seems that any topic older than 10 mins with no replies is forgotten (the amount of messages posted it overwh | 04:53 |
| Black_Magic | amenado,ok in firestarter i went to policy and changed editing to outbound and my default is set permissive by default blacklist traffic...to | 04:53 |
| prateek | iobelix, still getting some errors from archive.ubuntu.com | 04:54 |
| squidink | xjkx: yes it does | 04:54 |
| MagicDuck | does anyone know how to capitalize table names in kexi? | 04:54 |
| prateek | http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/gutsy/main/binary-i386/Packages.bz2: Sub-process bzip2 returned an error code (2) | 04:54 |
| amenado | Black_Magic-> i dont use firestarter, i however write my rules manually..so how firestarter write the rulez, thats an extra step to translate | 04:54 |
| prateek | that | 04:54 |
| Jack_Sparrow | xjkx, the livecd or a hard drive install | 04:54 |
| Fryguy-- | vatzec: why not just use screen? | 04:54 |
| xjkx | squidink, tell me how to quit splash and i tell you where it stop | 04:55 |
| sainzeo | Meat: how's it going with that tar package? | 04:55 |
| Black_Magic | amenado oh i see inbound access has a way to add rules | 04:55 |
| cute_bettong | zcat[1]_: or is it cute_bettong: open a terminal and type: sudo mount /media/Storage -o remount,umask=0 | 04:55 |
| squidink | xjkx: have you tried selecting recovery mode in the boot menu? | 04:55 |
| cute_bettong | gah that was dumb | 04:55 |
| amenado | DrIP once you enable the eth1 of your ubuntu desktop, can you then paste same info I need? i would like to compare the two.. | 04:56 |
| DrIP | sure | 04:56 |
| DrIP | this might drop out... | 04:56 |
| vatzec | Fryguy--: I've just thought that it'd be more effective to run it using cron | 04:56 |
| xjkx | squidink, there is no recovery mode | 04:56 |
| egc | hmm...coffee | 04:56 |
| prateek | anyone know why? | 04:56 |
| tritium | xjkx: yes, there is | 04:56 |
| amenado | DrIp thats okay, put it in a file and then just append it to the previous one..and deactivate eth1 to get back if you must | 04:56 |
| Fryguy-- | vatzec: oh, i misunderstood you, i thought the problem was that you kept getting disconnected and you needed a way to see that and/or reconnect | 04:57 |
| Meat | sainzeo: slow as can be, my compiz has decided to start lagging... anyhow, i unpacked, ./configured, but there is a dependency im resolving now | 04:57 |
| xjkx | start or install ubuntu // start ubuntu in safe graphic // install with driver update cd // OEM install // check cd for defect // memory test // boot from hard disk | 04:57 |
| xjkx | which of them | 04:57 |
| DrIP | hey! it still works | 04:57 |
| sainzeo | Meat: sounds good | 04:57 |
| vatzec | Fryguy--: well, actually it is, but I don't get disconnected to often, just *quite* often, and since the computer is acting as a server and I have no way to administrate it but via SSH this is really a pain | 04:57 |
| xphox | whoami | 04:58 |
| Fryguy-- | vatzec: screen will solve most of that | 04:58 |
| Jack_Sparrow | xjkx, 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 "--" | 04:58 |
| Meat | sainzeo: I'm gonna restart x real quick to get compiz back to speed, brb | 04:58 |
| Fryguy-- | vatzec: btw what is the point of having a server on a very unreliable connection? | 04:58 |
| sainzeo | Meat: k | 04:58 |
| vatzec | Fryguy--: so do you suggesting constantly pinging the router? wouldn't that be too messy? | 04:58 |
| Fryguy-- | i suggest using screen to get your work done | 04:58 |
| ionstorm | what is a good ubuntu media center | 04:58 |
| ionstorm | that works | 04:59 |
| squidink | xjkx: ah; you're using the liveCD. have you tried safe graphics mode? | 04:59 |
| tritium | ionstorm: mythbuntu | 04:59 |
| vatzec | you see it's not hosting anything important, so I don't really need to be sure that it works, but it's be way more convenient if I didn't have to go to the basement to reboot it every time it disconnects | 04:59 |
| amenado | DrIP oh another thing 0.0.0.0 192.168.1.1 0.0.0.0 UG 100 0 0 wlan0 a metric of 100 will stop you cold from getting anywhere | 04:59 |
| ionstorm | tritium, I dont want it for tv | 04:59 |
| ionstorm | I want it to index my movies in .avi | 04:59 |
| vatzec | that occurs like once per week/two weeks, it really varies | 04:59 |
| vatzec | anyway it's a pain | 04:59 |
| ionstorm | does mythbuntu support that? | 04:59 |
| tritium | ionstorm: it has many capabilities, including videos | 04:59 |
| squidink | xjkx: have you already installed on the hard disk, or are you trying to boot off the liveCD? | 04:59 |
| ionstorm | ok | 04:59 |
| ionstorm | tritium, thnx | 04:59 |
| murlidhar | how can i install ant? | 05:00 |
| Fryguy-- | vatzec: or take the time to run a wired connection to it, can't be that bad | 05:00 |
| tritium | ionstorm: I suggest reading up on mythv a bit before diving in. | 05:00 |
| amenado | Ubuntu ought to fix that bug ... using ifdown ethX ; ifup ethX adds that metric 100.. a nasty one.. | 05:00 |
| vatzec | it's loud as heck you see :P that's why I have moved it to the basement | 05:00 |
| murlidhar | cuz when i give ./compile in terminal it says "ant not found" | 05:00 |
| Fryguy-- | or put a wireless router/wap in front of it and use a wired connection, and let the wirelessrouter/wap handle renegotiating the wireless | 05:00 |
| murlidhar | murlidhar@murlidhar-desktop:~/Cabos-0.7.8-SourceCode/Cabos SourceCode/CabosCore/core$ ./compile | 05:01 |
| murlidhar | ./compile: 9: ant: not found | 05:01 |
| shawn__ | im back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! | 05:01 |
| Fryguy-- | murlidhar: apt-get install ant ??? | 05:01 |
| shawn__ | i made it through the storm | 05:01 |
| ionstorm | tritium, thnx | 05:01 |
| shawn__ | but my res is way high | 05:01 |
| Jack_Sparrow | shawn__, So that got you in right | 05:01 |
| shawn__ | and it says its low when i look into changining it | 05:01 |
| shawn__ | no | 05:01 |
| tritium | !enter | shawn__ | 05:01 |
| ubotu | shawn__: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 05:01 |
| shawn__ | i dind thave to use that | 05:01 |
| shawn__ | oops sry | 05:02 |
| murlidhar | Fryguy--, oops thanks | 05:02 |
| DrIP | maybe not... | 05:02 |
| DrIP | amenado: back | 05:02 |
| Black_Magic | amenado, what was that iptables command..? | 05:02 |
| vatzec | Fryguy--: there's gotta be a way to do that though without buying additional hardware | 05:02 |
| Black_Magic | amenado, that told you my firewall was doing it | 05:02 |
| egc | tritium: i'm outties...nice meeting you ;) | 05:02 |
| vatzec | it's a simple script, I just don't know why it doesn't work | 05:02 |
| shawn__ | i just reconfigured my x server thought node | 05:02 |
| tritium | Nice to meet you, egc :) | 05:02 |
| shawn__ | and that worked | 05:02 |
| xjkx | squidink, trying to boot the live | 05:02 |
| amenado | Black_Magic for which? to see the existing rules and policies? iptables -vL | 05:02 |
| Fryguy-- | vatzec: there probably is, but routers are cheap, your time is expensive, makes sense to make a small investment to save yourself hassle | 05:02 |
| shawn__ | i also chnaged my bios to pci | 05:02 |
| DrIP | amenado: help... | 05:03 |
| shawn__ | how do i check if i have 3d enabled? | 05:03 |
| DrIP | amenado: ff isn't leting my outside... | 05:03 |
| amenado | DrIP have you read what i have posted ? please scroll back | 05:03 |
| vatzec | Fryguy--: I'd rather keep on searching for a way to solve it with just the software, thanks for the chat though :) | 05:03 |
| Wisteso | if 3d is enabled then compiz will work | 05:03 |
| DrIP | amenado: it dropped out | 05:03 |
| shawn__ | where is compiz? | 05:04 |
| Fryguy-- | shawn__: ? | 05:04 |
| Fryguy-- | fryguy-desktop:~$ whereis compiz | 05:04 |
| Fryguy-- | compiz: /usr/bin/compiz /usr/bin/compiz.real /usr/lib/compiz /usr/include/compiz /usr/share/compiz /usr/share/man/man1/compiz.1.gz | 05:04 |
| dbmoodb | can i get iceweasel on gutsy ? | 05:04 |
| DrIP | ohh | 05:04 |
| amenado | Black_Magic-> iptables -vL only tells you what the existing rulez are, but it requires knowledge to interpret the rules to make sense of the effects | 05:04 |
| Wisteso | compiz, aka the desktop effects | 05:04 |
| tritium | dbmoodb: no, firefox | 05:04 |
| dbmoodb | .... | 05:05 |
| aartanek | sainzeo: *facepalm* and for all that, it finally ends up failing because "gaim" not found... because its called pigeon now | 05:05 |
| dbmoodb | rofl its still icweasel | 05:05 |
| DrIP | amenado: mind if i pm you? | 05:05 |
| xjkx | i will try again | 05:05 |
| xjkx | be right back | 05:05 |
| amenado | DrIP yes, i think Tann is watching us, so he can learn | 05:06 |
| shawn__ | Checking for Xgl: not present. | 05:06 |
| shawn__ | No whitelisted driver found | 05:06 |
| shawn__ | aborting and using fallback: /usr/bin/metacity | 05:06 |
| sainzeo | aartanek: crap | 05:06 |
| squidink | vatzec: so you want to check if the link is up, and if not, reboot? or re-negotiate the link? | 05:06 |
| DrIP | ok... | 05:06 |
| amenado | DrIP so its best to stay on channel | 05:06 |
| DrIP | yes... | 05:06 |
| Tann | DrIP: YEes | 05:06 |
| vatzec | squidink: reconnect, yeah | 05:06 |
| Black_Magic | amenado, trying to figyure out how to pipe them all to a txt file so i can compare all those ifconfig ifconfig route -n iptables -vL when and if internet stops working. | 05:06 |
| dbmoodb | i will google | 05:06 |
| dbmoodb | 05:06 | |
| quentusrex | I have two graphics cards in my desktop. I've just installed ubuntu gutsy x386. What driver do I need for the ATI RV516 [Radeon X1300/X1550 Series] video card? and which driver for the ATI Technologies Inc Radeon RV100 QY [Radeon 7000/VE] card? | 05:06 |
| ubotu | google is the helpers' friend; many newer users dont have the google-fu yet; For GNU/Linux: http://google.com/linux | 05:06 |
| aartanek | sainzeo: It says I can adjust PKG_CONFIG_PATH, but i'm not entirely sure how to do that | 05:06 |
| Black_Magic | amenado, to see if they match | 05:06 |
| squidink | what are you using to manage the wireless connection? | 05:06 |
| quentusrex | Should I install the restricted driver for ati cards? | 05:06 |
| sainzeo | aartanek: i'm not either :-/ | 05:06 |
| tritium | quentusrex: if you need it | 05:06 |
| DrIP | amenado: 192.168.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth1 0.0.0.0 192.168.0.2 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth1 | 05:06 |
| Tann | DrIP: i meant yes if you didn't guess | 05:06 |
| Black_Magic | !ati > quentusrex | 05:06 |
| vatzec | squidink: erm... the console :D | 05:06 |
| amenado | Black_Magic sample... ifconfig >> testfile.txt ; iwconfig >> testfile.txt | 05:07 |
| murlidhar | this is the error i get when i try to compile what is the problem? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59999/ | 05:07 |
| sainzeo | aartanek: is there perhaps a readme file located in the TAR package? | 05:07 |
| squidink | vatzec: as in network manager or /etc/network | 05:07 |
| shawn__ | my screen and graphioces prefrences show nothing | 05:07 |
| shawn__ | but my card is working | 05:07 |
| vatzec | squidink: /etc/network | 05:07 |
| amenado | DrIP that is difficult to read, please put it in pastebin | 05:07 |
| quentusrex | Black_Magic: should I install the binary driver? or should I go with something else? | 05:07 |
| DrIP | amenado: if you lay that out, i put a bunch of space between the 2 lines | 05:07 |
| squidink | and what happens when it drops the connection? | 05:07 |
| amenado | DrIP so things are lined up..hard to read a paste on the channel | 05:08 |
| DrIP | amenado: i'm 'being stopped cold' | 05:08 |
| vatzec | hmm. | 05:08 |
| vatzec | squidink: never tried that network manager thing | 05:08 |
| DrIP | (metric of 100 now) | 05:08 |
| aartanek | sainzeo: there is, but it is more release info than install help | 05:08 |
| vatzec | squidink: isn't it for GUI users though? | 05:08 |
| squidink | vatzec: it's nice that it's there but not that useful unless you're roaming | 05:08 |
| squidink | vatzec: there is a gui interface, but it's much bigger than that | 05:08 |
| vatzec | squidink: yeah what I've read here so far it's for laptop users and such | 05:08 |
| amenado | DrIP you are stopped because your 1) your ip address has changed you use to have 192.168.1.0 as gateway | 05:09 |
| squidink | vatzec: do the logfiles suggest any reasons the connection is dropping out in the first place? | 05:09 |
| DrIP | amenado: humm.... | 05:09 |
| quentusrex | Is there some reason not to go with the restricted binary drivers??? | 05:09 |
| Black_Magic | quentusrex: Are you sure you cant just go to Restricted Driver Manager and click your Driver if they arent there go with the ATI drivers | 05:09 |
| amenado | DrIP on the wireless side you are using DHCP yes? | 05:10 |
| tritium | quentusrex: if the open-source driver works for you, and you don't need 3D acceleration. | 05:10 |
| DrIP | amenado: temp. yes... | 05:10 |
| Black_Magic | quentusrex: System -> Administrator -> Restricted Driver Manager (Note You will have to type your password) | 05:10 |
| amenado | DrIP what do you meant temp. ? | 05:10 |
| vatzec | squidink: can't really tell, didn't check 'em but I'm almost but certain that this is the poor signal strength | 05:10 |
| quentusrex | Alright, so the restricted driver isn't the ATI driver that Dev's won't help support? | 05:10 |
| DrIP | i'm planning to switch to a perm 192,168.1.55 | 05:10 |
| tritium | quentusrex: right | 05:10 |
| Black_Magic | quentusrex: Exactly | 05:11 |
| quentusrex | aaah, ok. | 05:11 |
| squidink | vatzec: I'd a guessed that it should re-connect... though I could be wrong | 05:11 |
| quentusrex | Then I'll install the restricted driver... | 05:11 |
| amenado | DrIP and your AP will allocate that, or reserve that for you? | 05:11 |
| Black_Magic | quentusrex: if in Ubuntu Repos or in restricted driver manager then its supported | 05:11 |
| quentusrex | ok, thanks. | 05:11 |
| === zcat[1]_ is now known as zl3cat | ||
| aartanek | quentusrex: and it works rather well, im using it right now, and for once compiz works nice and smooth | 05:11 |
| Black_Magic | quentusrex: Simple just click the lil tick spot to enable and it will automaticly install | 05:11 |
| DrIP | amenado: no, i have to do that | 05:11 |
| vatzec | squidink: I remember setting this up on my sister's PC but back then I've just made her a script which she'd run once it disconnect | 05:11 |
| vatzec | -ed. | 05:11 |
| DrIP | amenado: it's a manual static | 05:11 |
| sainzeo | aartanek: let me see if i can try installing it... | 05:11 |
| Black_Magic | quentusrex: You may have to click a couple things tho | 05:12 |
| quentusrex | Now, I have two graphics cards and one monitor attached to each card. How do I configure the second card and monitor? | 05:12 |
| squidink | vatzec: something like "ifdown eth1; ifup eth1" ? | 05:12 |
| vatzec | just iwconfig essid AFAIR | 05:12 |
| amenado | DrIP thats fine, but lets get your dhcp stuff working for now | 05:13 |
| aartanek | sainzeo: alright, ill hold off while you do that before i start asking people about the package path | 05:13 |
| DrIP | amenado: ok... | 05:13 |
| Lam | i need help increasing the volume of my microphone. it's too soft/low. i tried the alsamixer's mic boost, but it's still rather soft | 05:13 |
| sainzeo | aartanek: did you install pidgin from the repo's or manually compiled? | 05:13 |
| greencookie | has anyone got netgear wireless wg111 usb dongle to work with linux?:D | 05:13 |
| tritium | sainzeo: pidgin is installed by default | 05:13 |
| sainzeo | tritium: oh yeah, duh lol | 05:13 |
| sainzeo | sorry | 05:13 |
| Black_Magic | greencookie: have you tried ndiswrapper? | 05:13 |
| aartanek | =P | 05:14 |
| greencookie | Black_Magic: in fact I have. Which driver did you use? | 05:14 |
| === zl3cat is now known as zcat[1] | ||
| amenado | DrIP do this sudo dhclient wlan0 | 05:14 |
| DrIP | ok | 05:14 |
| squidink | vatzec: so you want something like "ROUTER=192.168.0.1; if ping -c 1 $ROUTER; iwconfig essid AFAIR; fi" | 05:14 |
| Black_Magic | greencookie: Do you have the CD that came with the card...? if so find the driver trying to remeber the extention it has.. | 05:14 |
| amenado | DrIP can your ubuntu reach the internet now? | 05:14 |
| tritium | sainzeo: :) | 05:14 |
| DrIP_ | ok | 05:15 |
| greencookie | Black_Magic unfortunately I dont:( | 05:15 |
| DrIP_ | 1 sec lag thi | 05:15 |
| DrIP_ | *tho | 05:15 |
| vatzec | squidlink: ideally -c 3 | 05:15 |
| orran | tritium: I'm Back nothing working to format my hard drive | 05:15 |
| vatzec | squidink: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=725364 | 05:15 |
| DrIP_ | ahh better | 05:15 |
| orran | egc: I'm back nothing working right | 05:15 |
| tritium | orran: no? | 05:15 |
| Black_Magic | greencookie: Find the .inf and .sys.... hmm Have you tried googling for the drivers of that card... Somthing like Windows Drivers for such and such card download...? | 05:15 |
| tritium | !format | orran | 05:15 |
| ubotu | orran: Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted (also "man mkfs" for formatting) - Mounting partitions in !GNOME under !Dapper: System -> Administration -> Disks - For !Edgy and later, see !fstab and !DiskMounter | 05:15 |
| squidink | vatzec: actually that should be "if [ ! ping -c 1 $ROUTER ];" | 05:15 |
| Black_Magic | greencookie: Or try the Cards company website.. | 05:15 |
| tritium | orran: you tried all those suggestions above? | 05:15 |
| DrIP_ | amenado: ok done | 05:15 |
| vatzec | squidink: why is that? | 05:16 |
| amenado | DrIP can your ubuntu reach the internet now? | 05:16 |
| DrIP_ | amenado: yes | 05:16 |
| squidink | vatzec: 0 is true in bash | 05:16 |
| amenado | DrIP-> then paste those info I requested..so I can compare | 05:16 |
| Black_Magic | !DiskMounter | 05:16 |
| ubotu | To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - For write access, see /msg ubotu NTFS-3g or /msg ubotu FUSE | 05:16 |
| squidink | vatzec: ping returns 0 if it worked | 05:16 |
| shawn__ | okay | 05:16 |
| vatzec | squidink: yeah, I know, but did you mean the "!", the "-c 1" or the "[ ]"s :P | 05:16 |
| shawn__ | my xserver crashed | 05:16 |
| DrIP_ | amenado: http://rafb.net/p/xM3uZH63.html | 05:16 |
| shawn__ | so i followed your advice | 05:16 |
| orran | ubotu: Anything else because it's not working | 05:17 |
| shawn__ | on selecting the driver | 05:17 |
| shawn__ | so now im back | 05:17 |
| nomic | run a fsck then try reinserting your graphics card shawn | 05:17 |
| squidink | vatzec: so you have to negate it. bash doesn't have an inverse (i.e. !), so you have to use the test command, which is abbreviated to [ | 05:17 |
| orran | tritium: yeah it not doing it. | 05:17 |
| tritium | orran: hmm... | 05:17 |
| squidink | vatzec: (try man test) | 05:17 |
| vatzec | squidink: I know what the []s are, but I didn't know you have to make it test-ping | 05:17 |
| vatzec | thought that ping is enuff | 05:18 |
| vatzec | didn't ever write a proper bash script, that's probably why :P | 05:18 |

| amenado | DrIP odd but i cant argue...can you ping your wired router now? | 05:19 |
| squidink | vatzec: so it should read if [ ! ping -c 3 192.168.1.1 ] | 05:19 |
| Black_Magic | quentusrex: Cool. So you got it all working? | 05:19 |
| nomic | quentusrex save yourself you're xconfig file /x11/xfree xconfig | 05:19 |

| Black_Magic | quentusrex: Wow that was fast....usualy takes me about 3-4mins to reboot select Ubuntu and then wait for the thing to finish and then login and then open up Xchat or irssi :P | 05:21 |
| murlidhar_ | is it possible to install java 6 jre through wine?/ | 05:21 |

| bemanuel | hello | 05:25 |
| bemanuel | i know that its a stupid question | 05:25 |
| DrIP__ | amenado: :p | 05:25 |
| bemanuel | but | 05:25 |
| bemanuel | i have a dual core | 05:25 |
| bemanuel | notebook | 05:25 |
| amenado | DrIP paste your /etc/network/interfaces file | 05:25 |
| bemanuel | its better i use a 386 distro | 05:25 |
| bemanuel | or the 64 bits distro? | 05:26 |
| === murlidhar_ is now known as murlidhar | ||
| tritium | bemanuel: most choose to run the 32 bit version | 05:26 |
| bemanuel | why? | 05:26 |
| bemanuel | because the jvm and plugins? | 05:26 |
| Black_Magic | quentusrex: And this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=707170 Also http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=221174 and http://www.mydatabasesupport.com/forums/linux-misc/200728-ubuntu-external-monitor-laptop.html | 05:26 |
| DrIP__ | amenado: http://rafb.net/p/CwZc7Z82.html | 05:26 |
| tritium | bemanuel: there is little performance gain for the 64 bit version, and the reason you just hit on above | 05:26 |
| bemanuel | okay | 05:27 |
| shawn__ | when i try to configure my ati card it does this shawn@shawn-desktop:~$ sudo aticonfig --overlay-type=Xv | 05:27 |
| shawn__ | Warning: Could not find configuration file | 05:27 |
| shawn__ | Please copy configuration file template to /etc/X11 | 05:27 |
| shawn__ | shawn@shawn-desktop:~$ | 05:27 |
| bemanuel | thnx so much | 05:27 |
| tritium | shawn__: please don't use aticonfig | 05:27 |
| shawn__ | ohh sry | 05:27 |
| bemanuel | shawn_: use the envy package | 05:27 |
| shawn__ | what should i do | 05:27 |
| Black_Magic | shawn__DONT USE THAT! | 05:28 |
| Black_Magic | shawn__You may loose support. | 05:28 |
| shawn__ | what should i use | 05:28 |
| tritium | shawn__: you can if you like, but "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" is the recommended approach | 05:28 |
| bemanuel | if you use envy? | 05:28 |
| amenado | DrIP-> comment out line 10,11,12 and add metric 0 | 05:28 |
| shawn__ | i did that | 05:28 |
| Black_Magic | Shawn__ATI Config or sudo dpkg-reconfig xserver-xorg | 05:28 |
| tritium | avoid envy also | 05:28 |
| TrustNoOne | is there a channel for yellow dog? | 05:28 |
| shawn__ | but it doesnt support 3d | 05:28 |
| bemanuel | tritium: envy doen work? | 05:28 |
| shawn__ | i need 3d | 05:28 |
| DrIP__ | amenado: ok | 05:28 |
| tritium | !envy | 05:28 |
| ubotu | envy is an unsupported tool to install newer versions of binary video drivers than provided by the official repositories. Use at your own risk, and remember that the latest version is not necessarily the "best". See « /msg ubotu binarydriver » | 05:28 |
| Black_Magic | bemanuel: Envy and Automatix are not Supported | 05:28 |
| shawn__ | i dunno | 05:28 |
| shawn__ | i havent used envy | 05:29 |
| shawn__ | what should i use for atix1300 | 05:29 |
| shawn__ | for 3d support | 05:29 |
| zcat[1] | which is safer? envy or installing nvidia's binary package by hand? | 05:29 |
| Black_Magic | shawn__, Manlly because they can mess up your system beyound your wildest dreams | 05:29 |
| shawn__ | 3d gl open | 05:29 |
| shawn__ | i can setup 3d manuely? | 05:29 |
| tritium | shawn__: please remember the request about !enter | 05:29 |
| DrIP__ | amenado: done | 05:29 |
| bemanuel | tritium: it works to me | 05:30 |
| Black_Magic | zcat[1]: You look in Restricted Driver Manager to see if you can just click a tick box to download and enable drivers...? | 05:30 |
| bemanuel | tritium: and the perfomance its better | 05:30 |
| tritium | !worksforme | bemanuel | 05:30 |
| ubotu | bemanuel: Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should (and especially recommend to others). Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability. Please see http://geekosophical.net/random/worksforme/ | 05:30 |
| amenado | DrIP do this sudo dhclient wlan0 | 05:30 |
| shawn__ | what should i use guys | 05:30 |
| bemanuel | sorry | 05:30 |
| DrIP__ | done | 05:30 |
| tritium | bemanuel: no worries | 05:30 |
| DrIP__ | woo no dropout | 05:31 |
| zcat[1] | Black_Magic: that doesn't work for 880GT or whatever is the card I was working with a while back ... nvidia_glx_new was not new enough apparently. Unless I missed something else | 05:31 |
| tritium | shawn__: the debian/ubuntu method is to use dpkg-reconfigure | 05:31 |
| amenado | DrIP-> okay paste those info I requested.. so i can compare | 05:31 |
| shawn__ | okay? | 05:31 |
| DrIP__ | ok | 05:31 |
| zcat[1] | Err 8800GT I think it was | 05:31 |
| shawn__ | i have it configured | 05:31 |
| Black_Magic | zcat[1]: Then download and make it from scratch your safe with that | 05:31 |
| shawn__ | but 3d gl isnt working | 05:31 |
| tritium | shawn__: what does "glxinfo | grep rendering" tell you? | 05:31 |
| zcat[1] | Black_Magic: that breaks with evry reboot though unless you remove some other package. And it still breaks with every kernel upgrade too. | 05:32 |
| shawn__ | Xlib: extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0". | 05:32 |
| shawn__ | direct rendering: No (If you want to find out why, try setting LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose) | 05:32 |
| Black_Magic | zcat[1]: Hmm... | 05:32 |
| DrIP__ | amenado: http://rafb.net/p/FdYAmb85.html | 05:32 |
| tritium | shawn__: yes, you don't have 3D support enabled. Take a look at your /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 05:32 |
| quentusrex | Black_Magic: I still have a problem with the two video cards. | 05:32 |
| navilon | is there a command line utility that will profile my system | 05:33 |
| zcat[1] | yeah.. in the ned I did it that way and told the guy what he'd have to do if it broke again... not the best solution :( | 05:33 |
| shawn__ | how do i look at that | 05:33 |
| zcat[1] | s/ned/end | 05:33 |
| tritium | navilon: profile it in what way? | 05:33 |
| Black_Magic | quentusrex: Well im stomped you have as much ways to get information as i do...i gave you about 4 links.. | 05:33 |
| quentusrex | Black_Magic: I have one card enabled that works great. But my second card isn't 'enabled'. | 05:33 |
| navilon | tritium: just tell me the type of hardware i have | 05:33 |
| tritium | navilon: lshw | 05:33 |
| zcat[1] | best solution would be for nvidia to make their drivers OSS.. :) | 05:33 |
| Black_Magic | quentusrex, im pretty sure it all balls down to adding something to xorg.conf | 05:34 |
| quentusrex | Black_Magic: I'm in the same boat as this guy: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=707170 | 05:34 |

| shawn__ | nano | 05:45 |
| shawn__ | ok | 05:45 |
| amenado | Black_Magic-> if you type that in on google, it has a nice explanations... :P | 05:45 |

| DrIP | bash: /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward: Permission denied | 05:46 |
| Black_Magic | DRIP, Err so.... Mac OSX...? i thought it was a Linux Distro LOL | 05:46 |
| rryan | imyousuf : grub-install is the command you want. But first, please clarify. When you boot up, you need to instruct grub to use that config file before you can get to your login screen? | 05:46 |
| Black_Magic | DRIP, Do sudo.. | 05:46 |
| DrIP | i did... | 05:46 |
| Black_Magic | DrIP: Oh ok...then idk.. | 05:46 |

| imyousuf | rryan: yes I need to do "configfile (hd0)/boot/grub/menu.lst" this before I get the options and on selecting option I get the OS to start | 05:47 |
| amenado | DrIP-> what command you typed exactly? | 05:47 |
| DrIP | amenado: root@alps-server:/home/amrit# echo 1> /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward | 05:47 |
| flyback- | well that fixed some stuff such as audio but not all | 05:47 |
| rryan | imyousuf : if you have a single hard drive, and you know which one it is, say /dev/hda, then you can type 'sudo grub-install /dev/hda' and it should do the rest. This is assuming that the system you have booted has the appropriate grub menu.lst in /boot/grub. | 05:47 |
| flyback- | :/ | 05:47 |
| amenado | DrIP-> do this sudo echo 1> /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward noticed the sudo? | 05:48 |
| flyback- | most of system admin is still missing etc | 05:48 |
| DrIP | amenado: i did that under root | 05:48 |
| flyback- | so there must be another group I need to add too | 05:48 |
| amenado | DrIP put a space after 1, my typo | 05:48 |

| imyousuf | rryan: what happens if it does not have appropriate grub? and my hdd is /dev/sda I get it using cat device.map | 05:48 |
| Black_Magic | amenado, can you get me to trust in my self and reboot im afraid i may get a : "Go strait to jail DO NOT pass go Do NOT Collect 2,000,000 Dollars" | 05:49 |
| amenado | DrIP-> cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward and tell me the results? | 05:49 |

| DrIP | amenado: 1 | 05:49 |
| Black_Magic | amenado, in other words back to square one.. | 05:49 |
| rryan | imyousuf : AFAIK if you install with that method, then grub will be installed in the MBR of the drive you provide it with. If you're running the system you want to boot into then it should all be fine. | 05:49 |
| shawn__ | i hav elike 5 xorg configs | 05:49 |

| rryan | imyousuf : well at least its good that you have a computer separate from the one you're working on trying to fix. Also, no data is at risk by doing this. You just might not be able to boot, which is also fixable. | 05:56 |
| DrIP | amenado: i had 100% packet loss :( | 05:56 |
| imyousuf | rryan: yeah I couldnt ask for help either :) | 05:56 |
| amenado | DrIP-> what have you been doing? you were able to ping your wired router from ubuntu? and you what disconnected the cable after? | 05:57 |
| DrIP | amenado: no... | 05:57 |
| amenado | DrIP can you ping cl1 ? can cl1 ping ubuntu? | 05:58 |
| DrIP | amenado: i can still ping my cls to my ubuntu | 05:58 |

| DrIP | amenado: darwin has a little prob with route... what are you looking for? | 06:16 |
| rybotsky | nickrud http://swik.net/kiba-dock | 06:16 |
| nickrud | rybotsky: I'm not going to try installing that on my system to test it, it's just a random deb from the net. | 06:16 |
| nickrud | rybotsky: a sec | 06:16 |
| sjovan | rryan: localhost... the router/host IP | 06:16 |
| rybotsky | k | 06:16 |
| amenado | DrIP why? what is the problem with route? | 06:16 |
| sjovan | opera rememberd it, so it's not that inportatn, but it's nice to know in the future | 06:17 |
| DrIP | amenado: it also wants a 'command' with -n | 06:17 |

| orran | PEace | 06:17 |
| rryan | sjovan : If you're interested in what your machine is configured to set up as, versus what it is actually setup as, you can check the file /etc/network/interfaces to see the default router, netmask, ip address of the interfaces you have enabled. (or if they are set to dhcp) | 06:18 |
| amenado | DrIP what is the problem? that should not take you long to paste route -n results | 06:18 |
| rryan | sjovan : if you want to see the dns servers that you are set to use, check the file /etc/resolv.conf | 06:18 |
| DrIP | amenado: on a mac, it's netstat | 06:18 |

| Blou_Aap | heheheh was ahvin trouble with my alsa setup yesterday :D | 06:28 |
| rryan | kris_ph : all that installing django should do is add its code and link it to your python path. | 06:28 |
| Blou_Aap | what to do ? | 06:28 |
| Blou_Aap | well | 06:28 |

| kris_ph | rryan: thanks.. so you mean.. it won't hurt my present system configuration after installing it? | 06:29 |
| crashhandler | Gimp is too......photoshop-ish | 06:29 |
| rryan | kris_ph : right, django wont't even install itself into apache because it doesn't assume that you want to use it with apache | 06:29 |
| Blou_Aap | Best advice with soft on ubuntu : If it fails compile it your self (Tweak a bit if u can code) I love open source !!! | 06:29 |
| rryan | kris_ph : you have to do all that manually.. (it also doesn't do that so it doesn't mess up pre-existing configurations, like yours) | 06:29 |
| kris_ph | rryan: do you have it in your box? just asking.. | 06:30 |
| rryan | Blou_Aap : well... i would insert another step there, search for someone who has identified it isn't working, and created a .deb of it that works.. then if that doesnt' work compile it from source :) | 06:30 |
| St_Patrick | gimp is hard, i keep looking for tools similar to mspaint but it is more complicated to draw a single line that i thought | 06:30 |

| nickrud | rybotsky: gksudo gedit | 06:32 |
| rybotsky | nickrud thanks | 06:33 |
| chill | yeah but i got debs from getdeb.net | 06:33 |
| rryan | kris_ph : Yup, that guide should work to get you setup with your django app running on apache with mod_python. | 06:33 |
| chill | and its a different version than the one in repos | 06:33 |
| nickrud | kris_ph: sudo apt-get install python-django , and the config stuff will be in /usr/share/doc/python-django . | 06:33 |
| crashhandler | i am not searching for a drawing apps///but just a simple apps to crop,resize,and applying simple filters such as blur,sharpen,and adjusting gammas contras n such | 06:33 |
| rryan | kris_ph: The only line that I wouldn't use is 'a2dissite default', if your php site is named 'default' then it will disable it. | 06:33 |
| Blou_Aap | crashhandler: gimp >>> all | 06:34 |
| arkon13 | can anyone help me configure my 5.1 speakers step by step please? | 06:34 |
| rryan | nickrud : I think he knows that (If I understand correctly). He's worried that installing the repository package will affect his current apache configs, on which he has a couple php apps running. | 06:34 |
| kris_ph | rryan: okay.. thanks for that.. so what would I use then? m on a box without gui.. | 06:34 |
| crashhandler | Blou_Aap: gimp is too hard! i mean the interface,unorganized. | 06:34 |
| rryan | kris_ph : every part of that guide other than that one should be fine for getting you setup | 06:35 |

| amenado | crashhandler-> try inkscape, layering | 06:35 |
| nickrud | rryan: if the package is built correctly (most likely ;) it will be very safe | 06:35 |
| Blou_Aap | crashhandler: do you know abit of photoshop ? | 06:35 |
| rryan | kris_ph : I would also recommend using the django official documentation. It's often much more helpful and detailed: http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/modpython/ | 06:35 |
| Blou_Aap | crashhandler: then get gimp , that photoshop look alike | 06:36 |
| crashhandler | yes...i know photoshop,but i want the apps simple as photofiltre (m$ windows) | 06:36 |
| Blou_Aap | crashhandler: a lot simpler than trad gimp | 06:36 |
| nickrud | crashhandler: you might like gthumb, it has the basic photo manipulation stuff | 06:36 |
| kris_ph | thanks for the help.. | 06:36 |
| Kyro | does Ubuntu Server come with apache, php and sql already set up, ready to configure kind of thing? | 06:36 |

| chill | crahshhandler check www.getdeb.net i just saw an application like that | 06:36 |
| Blou_Aap | ye gthump does a few simple stuff | 06:37 |

| chill | cvd-pr in the ubuntu forums there is a thread with lots of possible solutions to that problem | 06:39 |
| Ububegin | chill: it still cant seem to clear the java-doc thingie... It is as if though, it wont allow me to install anything else... | 06:40 |
| nickrud | Ububegin: go to http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp#docs , click on Java SE 6 Documentation download button, and download jdk-6-doc.zip to /tmp . Then run sudo apt-get -f install | 06:40 |
| nickrud | preor: probably because you weren't in /home/user/alsa when you did the first command | 06:40 |

| nickrud | kris_ph: hit the escape button, type :q or :wq to save, or q! to quit without saving | 06:42 |
| Ububegin | kris_ph : type :q | 06:42 |
| kris_ph | thanks.. that helps.. | 06:42 |
| nickrud | kris_ph: run vimtutor , it'll teach you the basics quickly | 06:42 |
| chill | ububegin: sorry cant help | 06:43 |
| tchaska | anybody knows how to do a firewire network? where I can find a tutorial about this | 06:43 |
| kris_ph | nickrud: I tried this: sudo vim /etc/apache2/sites-available/django-example but it says m making a new file.. why? | 06:43 |
| tchaska | ? | 06:43 |
| kris_ph | sorry.. that was supposed for rryan | 06:43 |
| nickrud | kris_ph: possibly a typo: type sudo vim /etc/apache2/sites-available/dj<tab> , it should complete the file name. Or, cd /etc/apt/apache2/sites-available (so you're in the directory) and ls to see the file names | 06:44 |
| nickrud | kris_ph: probably a better person to talk to about configuring django ;) | 06:45 |

| EruditeHermit | hi I have an iwl4965 card and I seem to have this problem https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-ubuntu-modules-2.6.22/+bug/144621 I've tried an updated package by trevino which is listed in that thread but it doesn't fix the issue.Can anyone help? Will this be fixed in hardy? | 06:50 |
| nickrud | Ububegin: the reason you have to jump thru the hoops like that is suns licensing policy, by the way | 06:50 |
| grub | kdorf, its actually for my friend, i know how to do all that, but hes a noob, was wondering if theres an easy method so that he could do it on his own | 06:50 |
| chill | dont you dare to blame ubuntu | 06:50 |
| chill | sun is evil | 06:50 |
| Ububegin | nickrud: Oh, for a moment, i thot it was ubuntu's packaging issue or something... chilli: relax dude | 06:51 |
| kdorf | I haven't actually given my partitions any changing in... forever. I think gparted will fix fstab, but grub is another issue I think | 06:51 |
| rryan | sun isn't evil.. they've done a lot of great things for the world. They're just a little confused in certain situations. | 06:51 |
| kdorf | grub: editing /boot/grub/menu.lst should be fairly straightforward | 06:52 |
| grub | kdorf, yeah | 06:52 |
| nickrud | Ububegin: that happens too | 06:52 |
| Meat_Popsicle | So I've got a question about compiling. I was working on installing a plugin for pidgin to aloow Xfire access. The .deb file was x86 and thre an error, so I got a .tar.bx2 and started on compiling it, but I've run into a dependency issue | 06:52 |
| arkon13 | help? | 06:52 |
| kdorf | grub: is your friend at all computer literate? being a computer noob and being a linux noob are very different :) | 06:52 |
| arkon13 | help again? :) | 06:53 |
| Meat_Popsicle | The package is trying to resolve the package "gaim", but since its "pidgin" nowadays, its not working. How can I redirect it to pidgin? | 06:53 |
| arkon13 | somebody heeeelp | 06:53 |
| arkon13 | :) | 06:53 |
| Ububegin | arkon13: help u do what :? | 06:53 |
| arkon13 | well | 06:53 |
| arkon13 | i can't configure my 5.1 speakers | 06:54 |
| arkon13 | i'm going crazy | 06:54 |
| grub | kdorf, linux noob :) | 06:54 |
| nickrud | Meat_Popsicle: a good rule of thumb for finding dependencies is to look at the dependency it needs (for example , gtk) and do this: apt-cache search libgtk | grep dev . That is, add lib to the front and then search for the development package. Works about 90% of the time | 06:54 |
| arkon13 | is there a private channel we can talk ? i'm having a hard time following the screen | 06:54 |
| preor | arkon13: heh I cant hear any voices from my speakers :S | 06:54 |
| chill | nice one nickrud | 06:54 |
| nickrud | Meat_Popsicle: ah, different issue. Get a later version of the plugin | 06:55 |
| Ububegin | arkon13 : X-D | 06:55 |
| chill | but you can also do sudo apt-get build-dep "name of package" | 06:55 |
| chill | does the same job | 06:55 |
| arkon13 | what? | 06:55 |
| ^futuro | Hi to all | 06:55 |
| nickrud | chill: if it's in the repos, true. | 06:55 |
| kdorf | grub: okay, then what I might suggest to him is to go ahead and comment out the entries in grub for windows, making sure the default is set to ubuntu of course, then go ahead and merge the partitions with gpart | 06:55 |
| ^futuro | How many pass to be photorec? | 06:55 |
| Meat_Popsicle | nickrud: thats the bad news, the plugin hasnt been updates in quite some time... I'm told it works with pidgin, but normally thats done using the .deb file | 06:55 |

| arkon13 | integrated | 06:58 |
| grub | kdorf, hes using gparted, it has ntfstools i guess | 06:58 |

| rryan | kris_ph: If so, then you need to add the <Location "/"> block to the squirrelmail file, and delete hte django file in your sites-available folder | 07:11 |
| Blou_Aap | arkon13: problems with sound ? | 07:11 |
| arkon13 | yes | 07:11 |
| individual_eleve | they say it damages the hard disk,specially the ones that were made with windows installed? | 07:11 |
| cyberguru | where i can post my problem | 07:11 |
| Blou_Aap | i had problem too | 07:11 |
| kris_ph | rryan: I have another domain pointed to the box | 07:11 |
| zmatt | bense: i get the same thing here...i'll look into it... | 07:11 |
| Blou_Aap | and fixed it | 07:11 |
| Blou_Aap | all you have to do is . . . | 07:11 |
| cyberguru | i am unable to mount my pen drive | 07:11 |
| kris_ph | rryan: I guess I could use it for this purpose.. | 07:11 |
| Blou_Aap | go here right . . . | 07:11 |
| arkon13 | can we talk on a private channel? | 07:11 |
| kris_ph | rryan: two domains pointing to the same ip add.. | 07:12 |
| rryan | kris_ph: and change <Location "/"> to whatever you want the subfolder of your suirrelmail domain to be the one that poinst to your django app | 07:12 |
| cyberguru | i am unable to mount my pen drive | 07:12 |
| cyberguru | what is the possible solution | 07:12 |
| individual_eleve | mount it... | 07:12 |
| cyberguru | i have error in mounting that thing | 07:13 |
| reckle5s | hey can one tell me what the konsole command is to get applications | 07:13 |
| rryan | individual_eleve : this didn't occur on my laptop. I checked when that was announced. What it boiled down to was that hard drive manufacturers were relying on windows setting the proper head parking timeouts for the drive, so their default settings were very conservative in the number of times they parked the heads of the drive. | 07:13 |
| david_ | reckle5s: apt-get :) | 07:13 |
| arkon13 | blou aap hello? | 07:13 |
| pstv | Help..what does it mean to run an application on ROOT? | 07:13 |
| arkon13 | you were saying something about the sound | 07:13 |
| arkon13 | :) | 07:13 |
| rryan | individual_eleve : Ubuntu does not modify your laptop's hard drive parameters by default. Only if you enable 'laptop-mode', which is not enabled by default on Ubuntu, will it modify your hard drive settings. | 07:13 |
| cyberguru | wrong fs type | 07:13 |
| cyberguru | is the error | 07:14 |
| pstv | or RUN AS ROOT? | 07:14 |
| cyberguru | but that things works on Windows Platform | 07:14 |
| cyberguru | why root | 07:14 |
| rryan | individual_eleve: if you notice that your hard drive has this functionality, then you can use the hdparm command to set the frequency that it parks the heads | 07:14 |
| * Black_Magic Hears Angels Sing I have internet after reboot :P | 07:14 | |
| pstv | cyberguru: i'm trying to run mondo and mindi | 07:14 |
| cyberguru | sorry use the su command to go in root mode and then run the command | 07:14 |
| jx | hey guys | 07:14 |
| individual_eleve | ic..well its because i did install ubuntu on my laptop,and then back to windows..and now since my laptop had memory problems(corrosion)im thinking of going back to ubuntu.. | 07:15 |
| Blou_Aap | arkon13: go priv | 07:15 |
| rryan | kris_ph : if you have multiple domains pointing to the same server, then you can make one run the squirrelmail app and one run teh django app | 07:15 |
| kris_ph | rryan: are you still there? | 07:15 |
| jx | windows is a toy | 07:15 |
| pstv | cyberguru: i did that but it doesnt work | 07:15 |
| Black_Magic | Are there any benifits to have more then one DNS Server because ive enabled OpenDNS servers | 07:15 |
| Black_Magic | jx: That breaks when you dont play with it :P | 07:15 |
| arkon13 | well it's my first time on this channel and it says smth about private messages are blocked due to spam | 07:15 |
| jx | haha | 07:15 |
| cyberguru | i am unable to mount my pen drive | 07:15 |
| arkon13 | so i can't really talk on the private | 07:16 |
| jx | well put | 07:16 |
| kris_ph | rryan: actually.. I have joomla running in my default and squirrelmail | 07:16 |
| individual_eleve | i just happen to chance upon those issues so i decided to ask around.. | 07:16 |
| arkon13 | if we go on a private channel will it work? | 07:16 |
| rryan | individual_eleve : you can find out more here : https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/acpi-support/+bug/59695 | 07:16 |
| Tybalt | Hi! When I start ubuntu it says my mac address is wrong, how do i go about fixing this? | 07:16 |
| rryan | individual_eleve: it describes how to test if your hard drive is parking too much, and a workaround if it is | 07:16 |
| individual_eleve | anyways thanks rryan.. | 07:16 |
| Blou_Aap | the priv chat is already open ?! | 07:16 |
| pstv | Does anyone use Mondo and MInid? | 07:16 |
| arkon13 | yes | 07:16 |
| Blou_Aap | arkon13: | 07:16 |
| rryan | kris_ph : ah ok .. i see.. do you access squirrelmail and joomla from different domains ? | 07:17 |
| Blou_Aap | arkon13: dont u get the messages ? | 07:17 |
| arkon13 | no... | 07:17 |
| arkon13 | no messages... | 07:17 |
| cyberguru | i am unable to mount my pen drive | 07:17 |
| kris_ph | rryan: yeah.. they are of the same domain.. the other domain is just pointed to my IP add | 07:17 |
| arkon13 | join channel #soundarkon | 07:17 |
| arkon13 | maybe that will work | 07:17 |
| arkon13 | :) | 07:17 |
| individual_eleve | i think i happen to have a solution for that cyberguru | 07:17 |
| individual_eleve | i had the same problem then..cannot mount pendrive.. | 07:18 |
| rryan | kris_ph : ok.. well for django to work, you need to either attach it to a subfolder of one of your domains that is unused, or you can setup a virtualhost for a domain that is not currently serving any app. (your IP address counts as one of these domains) Which would you like to do ? | 07:18 |
| cyberguru | then u don't know the solution | 07:19 |
| arkon13 | blou aap join #soundarkon | 07:19 |
| arkon13 | talk there | 07:19 |
| cyberguru | do u know any forum to discuss this topics | 07:19 |
| kris_ph | rryan: can we talk in a private channel? | 07:19 |
| rryan | kris_ph : sure | 07:19 |
| Madroxprime | not a lot going on so late.... | 07:21 |

| Parsec300 | arkon13, if you register your nickname with the nickserver, you should be able to send private messages. | 07:28 |
| Parsec300 | arkon13, at least, that worked for me. | 07:28 |

| Gpalco | He peole, I have a prob: One I change my IP to 192.168.15.XXX - my computer starts workin with a delay. Seriously. It still works fast, but with delays like starting apps, opening files. It starts openning, reads a bit from hard drive and stops, waits 30 secs and then continues loading the app. Why in a world this is heppening ??? | 08:05 |
| jedwards | which 1 would u recommend? | 08:06 |
| Kyro | chris062689, correct you can install kde 4.x fairly easily though | 08:06 |
| Kyro | no doubt the next release will be kde4 | 08:06 |
| jedwards | kde x3 | 08:07 |

| bullgard4 | info gettext writes: "The Translation Project also uses the GNU `gettext' distribution as a vehicle for documenting its structure and methods." Why is gettext a distribution? | 08:24 |
| AnRkey | bod_, try man apt-get :P | 08:24 |
| puff | What's the recommended tool for getting/listening to podcasts in ubuntu? | 08:24 |
| bod_ | Daworm, you have no /etc/inittab file | 08:24 |
| puff | I use amarok for my music. | 08:25 |
| AnRkey | richie, what file? | 08:25 |
| Daworm | bod_ indeed. I'm looking into setting it up now. | 08:25 |
| richie | doesnt upstart use /etc/inittab | 08:25 |
| richie | AnRkey: ^ | 08:25 |
| AnRkey | Daworm, sudo touch /etc/inittab | 08:26 |
| AnRkey | and the reinstall | 08:26 |
| AnRkey | then | 08:26 |
| bod_ | AnRkey, works both ways then ,.,. ;~) | 08:26 |
| richie | i know your not using sysv-init anymore for boot time runscripts | 08:26 |
| Daworm | reinstall? as in try the sudo apt-get install irssi you mean ? | 08:26 |
| AnRkey | bod_, the purge without the -- is less typing, i may just switch to your way, thanks : | 08:26 |
| AnRkey | :D | 08:26 |
| Daworm | YAY it worked!!! | 08:26 |
| bod_ | ;~) | 08:26 |
| bod_ | !yay | 08:27 |
| ubotu | Glad you made it! :-) | 08:27 |
| AnRkey | Daworm, yes | 08:27 |
| * Daworm hugs AnRkey | 08:27 | |
| AnRkey | Daworm, it working? | 08:27 |
| Daworm | indeed! | 08:27 |
| * bod_ thinks they should get a room | 08:27 | |
| richie | I believe /etc/event.d/ replaced /etc/inittab. Ubuntu refers to it as upstart. | 08:27 |
| AnRkey | Daworm, touch created the inittab file for you | 08:27 |
| AnRkey | an empty one | 08:27 |
| richie | Daworm: ^ | 08:27 |
| bod_ | AnRkey, what does touch do exactly? | 08:28 |
| AnRkey | richie, > > ^ > | 08:28 |
| Daworm | bod_: creates and empty file :) | 08:28 |
| richie | makes an emptyfile | 08:28 |
| richie | AnRkey: nice :) | 08:28 |
| bod_ | an empty folder or an empty text file? | 08:28 |
| richie | file | 08:28 |
| bod_ | ah | 08:29 |
| bod_ | cool | 08:29 |
| bod_ | but why was it complaining about a file it didnt need? | 08:29 |
| AnRkey | Daworm, the odd thing is that I just installed irssi without an inittab file | 08:29 |
| AnRkey | ha | 08:29 |
| bod_ | hah | 08:29 |
| Daworm | lol AnRkey | 08:29 |
| Daworm | I saw something about configuring a install system | 08:29 |
| doktoreas | mates sorry, tecnically the swap is used only when ram is empty? | 08:29 |
| Daworm | and it mentioned upstsart and event.d useage as a result. | 08:29 |
| pbne04 | hey..anyone know where I can get ubuntu with kernel version 2.6.11? | 08:30 |
| richie | doktoreas: no when full | 08:30 |
| AnRkey | Daworm, i hope it doesn't break anything | 08:30 |
| Blou_Aap | any reason why my ubuntu (feisty) would slow up so bad that it hangs ? | 08:30 |
| Daworm | AnRkey: nah it's all good - I couldn't install anything because of that. | 08:30 |
| bod_ | AnRkey, i was thinkin bout the purge command,.,. your way removes the files, stores them then purges them,. mine purges them where they are, | 08:30 |
| zmatt | pbne04: you'll probably have to compile it yourself... | 08:30 |
| richie | pbne04: why so old? | 08:30 |
| pbne04 | compatibility with older software.. | 08:31 |
| richie | such as? | 08:31 |
| doktoreas | richie, yep sorry :D | 08:31 |
| richie | i havent had any issues | 08:31 |
| AnRkey | bod_, i will do some reading | 08:31 |
| pbne04 | its commercial | 08:32 |
| AnRkey | bod_, it has always worked for me anyhow | 08:32 |
| richie | oh | 08:32 |
| richie | pbne04: make a patch | 08:32 |
| AnRkey | Daworm, glad i could help :D | 08:32 |
| doktoreas | richie, the matter is that I am running an application that whe starts it full all the memory without touching the swap | 08:32 |
| bod_ | AnRkey, yer me to,. im just interested in why both ways work ,.,.;~) | 08:32 |
| doktoreas | then it uses 20 mb of swap and goes in G_MALLOC | 08:32 |
| doktoreas | can be a bug in the application? | 08:32 |
| jescis | pbne04: you could symlink your current kernel | 08:32 |
| Daworm | bod_: because there's more than one developer for linux :) | 08:33 |
| bod_ | dont talk like that,.,. tux is the only developer!!!!!! mwahahahahah !!!!!! | 08:33 |
| AnRkey | bod_, i am interested in the difference between the two | 08:34 |
| pbne04 | as in installing a fresh ubuntu and rolling back to kernel 2.6.11? | 08:34 |
| richie | almost everything you do in GNU/linux can be done at least 5 differnet ways | 08:34 |
| AnRkey | richie, really? | 08:34 |
| richie | pbne04: no as in grabbing a kernel source | 08:34 |
| AnRkey | :D | 08:34 |
| Daworm | Now, how to configure irssi so that I can connect to IT with a third-party client if I'm away from home. | 08:34 |
| * Daworm goes googling | 08:34 | |
| javier | ., -,, | 08:35 |
| richie | pbne04: kernel.org | 08:35 |
| Black_Magic | How do i Delete Accounts from Evolution...? | 08:35 |
| pbne04 | thats what I meant | 08:35 |
| AnRkey | Daworm, you want to use screen if you want to leave it logged in while you disconnect | 08:35 |
| DaveTarmac | hi folks - is anyone on here familiar with 'PlayOnLinux'? | 08:35 |
| javier | spansh | 08:35 |
| Daworm | yeah - it's running in screen now. | 08:35 |
| AnRkey | Daworm, man screen | 08:35 |
| richie | pbne04: you said reinstall | 08:35 |
| bod_ | AnRkey, me too,. im on a get hardy project, so if you figure out the answer gimme a shout ;~) | 08:35 |
| AnRkey | oh ok | 08:35 |
| Daworm | Just what do I do to connect to it with a client (say xchat) when away from home? | 08:35 |
| Daworm | I'm reading guides.. but nothing jumps out yet. | 08:36 |
| javier | hello | 08:36 |
| AnRkey | bod_, will do (if i remember) | 08:36 |
| AnRkey | :D | 08:36 |
| AnRkey | ok i have :D'ed enough for today, back to work for me | 08:36 |
| AnRkey | :D | 08:36 |
| richie | Daworm: for what screen? | 08:36 |
| pbne04 | richie: ok tks, I'll look into it | 08:36 |
| DaveTarmac | I'm just wondering how you actually install games through PlayOnLinux - particularly WoW | 08:36 |
| richie | Daworm: ok irssi ? | 08:37 |
| bod_ | ..;~).. | 08:37 |
| Daworm | richie: yes | 08:37 |
| Daworm | I found : http://f0rked.com/articles/irssi | 08:37 |
| Daworm | reading now | 08:37 |
| richie | which? | 08:37 |
| * jescis wonders why he ever tries to help -_- | 08:37 | |
| richie | Daworm: in irssi /help | 08:39 |
| * jescis wonders what if he did "touch /dev fb0" :/ | 08:39 | |
| richie | jescis: not much it wouldnt work like a framebuffer] | 08:40 |
| === sealenceshao is now known as sealence | ||
| jescis | richie: ah, bummer -_- | 08:41 |
| richie | you need to compile the kernel for framebuffer support | 08:41 |
| jescis | richie: you know of a doc that tells me how? | 08:42 |
| CroX | I installed ATI drivers and now when I rebooted all I get is a brown solid screen after logging in. Using dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg didn't solve anything either. | 08:43 |
| Daworm | man irssi is confusing :) | 08:43 |
| Daworm | I'll net through it. | 08:44 |
| Daworm | *nut | 08:44 |
| bod_ | anyone heard of GAP for GIMP? | 08:44 |
| Jayzer | it's not so bad | 08:44 |
| jescis | Daworm: the man pages or irssi its self? | 08:44 |
| Daworm | just irssi .. it's different is all :) | 08:44 |
| Jayzer | Daworm: not sure if this is clear or not, but i don't think you can use x-chat to connect to irssi---you're basically just going to run an instance of irssi inside of screen, then detach from screen when you want to log out | 08:45 |
| Jayzer | then you'll just SSH in from another computer, and then attach to screen | 08:45 |
| Daworm | Jayzer: I used that as an example. But from what I was reading, it was possible to access it with another program? | 08:46 |
| Daworm | Mayhap I mis-read | 08:46 |
| Jayzer | i don't know anything about it, so i won't pretend to | 08:46 |
| peleg | I have done a big mistake: I have written a long mail in Evolution, then saved as draft, and went out. After that, I have discovered that I wasn't connected to the internet - I didn't get any failure message while saving as draft, but my draft folder is IMAP folder and not local folder (a mistake!), and now I don't have the draft. can you think about a temporary place where evolution saves such mails? | 08:46 |
| jescis | possible :/ | 08:46 |
| peleg | for the time that it tries to upload it to the IMAP draft folder | 08:47 |
| bod_ | can someone give me a hand please,. gparted is scary, how do i make a 10 gig partition for hardy install? | 08:47 |
| jescis | richie: or is there a manual for learning how to reconfigure the kernel? | 08:48 |
| richie | jescis: for ubuntu it should be on there wiki | 08:52 |
| jescis | ah ok thanks | 08:52 |
| daworm_ | ^x | 08:52 |
| richie | jescis: i know the old way but you will need a toolchain | 08:52 |
| daworm_ | .. ignore that playing with irssi | 08:52 |
| ArthurArchnix | hmm... I've been messing around a bit with my suspend resume sequence, and now when I resume from suspend my pcm channel on my sound card is turned off. I have to use alsamixer to turn it up, then alsactl store to save it. | 08:52 |
| ArthurArchnix | Any idea what's going on? | 08:53 |
| jescis | richie: toolchain? | 08:53 |
| Chousuke | ArthurArchnix: sounds like your resume scripts aren't restoring the setting properly :/ | 08:53 |
| richie | jescis: i think it is essentail-build or essentl-tools | 08:53 |
| ArthurArchnix | Chousuke: Yeah... but I'm more interested in why it's muting my channels... and where that happens. | 08:54 |
| richie | jescis: yeah so you can compile .. ubuntu doesnt come installed with these | 08:54 |
| bod_ | is it possible to have the background of the desktop a movie format like mpg instead of a image format? i wanna constantly watch the killer tux video | 08:54 |
| richie | jescis: like gcc glibc binutils | 08:54 |
| unenough | hey, what's the best way to share files between windows and linux on a dual-boot machine? any other option besides FAT32? | 08:54 |
| Chousuke | ArthurArchnix: ubuntu runs a set of scripts on suspend and resume... I just can't remember where they are. | 08:54 |
| bod_ | its build-essential i think richie | 08:54 |
| Chousuke | ArthurArchnix: you might want to find out and take a look. | 08:54 |
| richie | jescis: those are a must .. you have gcc try gcc -V what do you get back | 08:55 |
| jescis | richie: I need to get gcc first | 08:56 |
| jescis | "bash: command not found" | 08:57 |
| richie | jescis: yeah you need all those | 08:57 |
| jescis | k, one minute | 08:57 |
| bod_ | how does the ~/Desktop folder show its contents on the desktop? i want ~/pics to do the same thing but i want to keep the pics in the pics folder | 08:57 |
| arkon13 | Blou_Aap | 08:57 |
| arkon13 | Blou_Aap | 08:57 |
| richie | jescis: i think it is essentail-build or essentl-tools < search for something like this in apt-get | 08:57 |
| arkon13 | Blou_Aap | 08:58 |
| richie | jescis: apt-get search essentail | 08:58 |
| bod_ | essential | 08:58 |

| richie | needing | 09:16 |
| J49 | hey how do you download build-essentials? | 09:16 |
| J49 | all the files needed onto a windows computer? | 09:16 |
| CroX | All I get is a solid brown screen, after having logged in. This all started after installing ATI drivers from ati.com. | 09:16 |
| bod_ | CroX, perhaps you could refresh our minds as to your problem | 09:16 |
| bod_ | oh too late | 09:17 |
| richie | J49: apt-get install it | 09:17 |
| CroX | bod_: ;) Any idea how to solve this? | 09:17 |
| J49 | i need to install it on another computer | 09:17 |
| J49 | that doesn't have the internet | 09:17 |
| bod_ | CroX, uninstall the drivers? | 09:17 |
| richie | J49: then cp it to a disk | 09:17 |
| CroX | bod_: How can I do that? | 09:17 |
| ngabriel | when i run 'shutdown -H now', i the OS seems to shutdown but i'm left with a blinking cursor. Any ideas? | 09:17 |
| bod_ | !aptoncd | J49 | 09:18 |
| ubotu | J49: APTonCD is a tool with a graphical interface which allows you to create one or more CDs or DVDs with all of the packages you've downloaded via apt-get or aptitude, creating a removable repository that you can use on other computers | 09:18 |
| bod_ | CroX, not sure,. probably in single user mode | 09:18 |
| J49 | bod_: thanks | 09:18 |
| richie | ngabriel: yeah turn off the pc | 09:18 |
| bod_ | np ;~) | 09:18 |
| dgjones | J49, you could use http://packages.ubuntu.com/ search for the package and then download it using the link at the bottom (BUT I'm not certain if it'll include all the dependencies) | 09:18 |
| J49 | bod_++ | 09:18 |
| CroX | bod_: Single user mode? :S | 09:18 |
| ngabriel | richie: uhh, i think that defeats the purpose no? | 09:18 |
| richie | ngabriel: halt should turn it off for you | 09:18 |
| bod_ | CroX, at grub selection, choose the second boot option not the first | 09:19 |
| richie | ngabriel: dfeats the purpose you shut it down | 09:19 |
| coolbhavi | Hi fire up a terminal and type yes and press enter.. Just was testing hardy out.. It goes into an infinite loop just type yes and press enter in a terminal any ideas? | 09:19 |
| UB` | how can I discover what app use uvcvideo? | 09:19 |
| ngabriel | richie, i just meant that if i had easy access to the box, i probably would need the shutdown command :-) | 09:19 |
| CroX | bod_: Alright. When that has loaded, then what? | 09:19 |
| bod_ | coolbhavi, thats been there for ages | 09:20 |
| coolbhavi | bod_ whats the reason? | 09:20 |
| richie | coolbhavi: ctrl +c | 09:20 |
| bod_ | CroX, dunno,.,. just gettin you half way there,. your new question,. is ,.,. how can i uninstall the ati drivers from command line? | 09:20 |
| UB` | my iSight starts after logging in but I don't know why it starts | 09:20 |
| richie | coolbhavi: yes is a command | 09:20 |
| bod_ | coolbhavi, why not? | 09:20 |
| CroX | bod_: Heh. Righto. | 09:21 |
| bod_ | ;~) | 09:21 |
| CroX | Then, how can I uninstall ATI drivers from the CLI? | 09:21 |
| coolbhavi | richie Is yes a command? | 09:21 |
| richie | CroX: just instll newer ones | 09:21 |
| richie | coolbhavi: yes is a command | 09:21 |
| bod_ | CroX, do you no the name of the package? | 09:21 |
| coolbhavi | richie More info please | 09:22 |
| richie | coolbhavi: on | 09:22 |
| bod_ | richie, he is in single user mode/recovery mode | 09:22 |
| CroX | bod_: There was no deb. I installed it off of ati.com. | 09:22 |
| richie | coolbhavi: what commands? | 09:22 |
| bod_ | coolbhavi, yes is a command that echo's yes | 09:22 |
| CroX | richie: These are the latest and they wont work. | 09:22 |
| bod_ | CroX, what you compiled yourself? | 09:22 |
| Nix | hey guys =] can someone help me with installing something on ubuntu? | 09:23 |
| CroX | bod_: No, a binary file I downloaded from there. | 09:23 |
| bod_ | CroX, why not use the ones ubuntu provide in restricted drivers? | 09:23 |
| bod_ | ^^^^^ | 09:23 |
| coolbhavi | OK bod_ yes is used as an echo command huh? | 09:23 |
| fx|RabBi2 | hi all! anoyone knows a god howto on buidling .debs? | 09:23 |
| CroX | bod_: Because Google Earth wouldn't recognize the driver but said I should download drivers from ati.com instead. | 09:23 |
| richie | CroX: then install ones that do , you just dont have X configured right the new ones work fine | 09:23 |
| ArthurArchnix | CroX: I'd probably start by searching for the name of the package. Something like apt-cache search ATI might work | 09:23 |
| bod_ | coolbhavi, it will be something like this yes = echo "yes" && repeat | 09:23 |
| bod_ | CroX, i would trust the ubuntu guys over ati guys any day,.,.;~) | 09:24 |
| richie | coolbhavi: if [ 1 = 1 ] ; then echo yes ; fi | 09:24 |
| bod_ | CroX, are you at the CLI? | 09:24 |
| CroX | ArthurArchnix: What package am I looking for again, and why? Something to override the ati drivers? | 09:25 |
| CroX | bod_: Yes | 09:25 |

| bod_ | richie, nope,.,.70gig free | 09:33 |
| Pendeta | I'm installing Ubuntu Server Edition on a computer with 2 hard drives. I want mirror the hard drives (RAID 1). How do I do this? I'm at the place in the installation where it ask is I want to use LVM. Have I gone too far? Should I say yes and go on? | 09:33 |
| bod_ | CroX, see if theres an error log in your home folder | 09:33 |
| CroX | I get a big solid brown screen, and I start waiting for the panels to show. But they wont.. The pointer shows though. | 09:33 |

| gligorhoria | what does it mean? | 09:34 |
| CroX | bod_: Nothing. | 09:34 |
| gligorhoria | i have ubuntu server edition | 09:34 |

| CroX | richie: For the resolutions? | 09:35 |
| richie | CroX: yeah | 09:35 |
| bod_ | richie, 80gig drive,.,. 3gig swap 3gig extended 70gig / so 67 gig unused on / | 09:35 |
| Pendeta | ubotu, thanks! I forgot about those pages. I'll read them again now. | 09:36 |
| gligorhoria | kernel panic - not syncing: fatal exception in interrupt - this hapenes on high cpu activity (when i tar something big or when i run a program) | 09:36 |
| gligorhoria | like with wile loop in it | 09:36 |
| gligorhoria | it freaks out :D | 09:36 |
| richie | bod_: thats allready being used.. well no used used but partitioned | 09:36 |
| bod_ | richie, ok, so how can i split it? | 09:36 |
| richie | lol del the one nd reinstall what was on it after you make them into 2 | 09:37 |
| CroX | richie: Section "Screen" -> Subsection "Display" -> Modes "1280x800" "800x600" | 09:37 |
| richie | bod_: ^ | 09:37 |
| CroX | richie: I got that already. | 09:37 |
| bod_ | richie, that is my only install,. without it i have no os | 09:38 |
| richie | CroX: no the others ones | 09:38 |
| Pendeta | Before I do this, is software RAID 1 really any safer than one hard drive? | 09:38 |
| CroX | richie: What other ones? | 09:38 |
| richie | CroX: look in the log modLine 1600x1200 69 43 0 120 73 29 -Vertsync -Hsync like these | 09:39 |
| richie | CroX: thatst nit at all right but the log will have them | 09:39 |
| bod_ | richie, is there no way of partitioning a partition that has ubuntu installed on it? i dont want to reinstall 'again' | 09:40 |
| vogti | hiho ;) | 09:40 |
| bod_ | !hi | vogti | 09:40 |
| ubotu | vogti: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! | 09:40 |
| richie | bod_: get a new hdd but why do you need to split it now | 09:41 |
| bod_ | richie, play with hardy,.,.so theres no way of getting all that free space back? | 09:41 |
| richie | bod_: none that i would do or suggest | 09:42 |
| richie | there are ways | 09:42 |
| bod_ | richie, ok, whats the ones that you wouldnt suggest? | 09:42 |
| gligorhoria | kernel panic - not syncing: fatal exception in interrupt - this hapenes on high cpu activity (when i tar something big or when i run a program) | 09:42 |
| richie | but yu have 50 50 chance | 09:42 |
| richie | of saving the data | 09:43 |
| bod_ | i like those odds | 09:43 |
| ActionParsnip | wow its quiet | 09:43 |
| richie | basanta: i wouldnt do it at all | 09:43 |
| richie | ops | 09:43 |
| richie | bod_: i ment | 09:43 |
| Pendeta | Is Linux software RAID 1 safer than just using one disk. I mean does using RAID 1 introduce other risks that are not appearant at first look? | 09:43 |
| richie | basanta: so sorry | 09:44 |
| dr3ad | hello all, new linux / ubuntu user | 09:44 |
| ActionParsnip | Pendeta, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RAID | 09:44 |

| bod_ | richie, ??? why wouldnt you do it? | 09:44 |
| gligorhoria | kernel panic - not syncing: fatal exception in interrupt - this hapenes on high cpu activity (when i tar something big or when i run a program with a wile loop) ani sugestions on fixing this??? | 09:44 |
| ActionParsnip | dr3ad, howdy | 09:44 |
| bod_ | dr3ad, welcome to the free land | 09:44 |
| CroX | richie: I have no idea what to put there. Is there no reset functionality, like a working dpkg-reconfigure? | 09:44 |
| richie | bod_: i value my data | 09:45 |
| dr3ad | not quite free yet :) vm are wonderfull things | 09:45 |
| Pendeta | ActionPasnip, thanks. I'll read that. | 09:45 |
| bod_ | richie, but why might i lose data? | 09:45 |
| J49 | bod_: Aptoncd cannot find the build-essential packages, only those that were installed in the last day or so are available | 09:45 |
| CroX | I'd hate to go through the shit of reinstalling all over just because of another X problem.. | 09:45 |
| bod_ | dr3ad, vbox is a free version of that | 09:45 |
| ActionParsnip | dr3ad, I am free. even cancelled my hotmail account to make it complete | 09:45 |
| richie | J49: you need the right mirrors | 09:45 |
| dr3ad | haha have to checkout vbox | 09:45 |
| ActionParsnip | !vbox | 09:46 |
| ubotu | virtualbox is a x86 !virtualizer. A !free edition is available in !Gutsy as 'virtualbox-ose'. A non-free edition is available at http://virtualbox.org for most Ubuntu releases (help in #vbox) - Setup details at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox | 09:46 |
| bod_ | J49, ive heard of a program that lets you edit iso's, so you can add packages to the live cd,. try googling for it | 09:46 |
| dr3ad | but i wont ever be able to get rid of ms, other users on this machine need it | 09:46 |
| richie | bod_: cause its playing with a partiton that has data on it | 09:46 |
| ActionParsnip | dr3ad, what for? | 09:46 |
| dr3ad | so for now ms host, linux vm but i have a beefyy machine so vm no problem | 09:47 |
| J49 | bod_: The problem is I cannot get all the packages, i could download them 1 by 1 but there are hundreds of dependencies | 09:47 |
| ActionParsnip | dr3ad,why do they need M$ products? | 09:47 |
| bod_ | dr3ad, buy them an old machine,.,.haha,. or deliberately corrupt windows beyond repair (shouldnt be too hard) | 09:47 |
| royerfa_ | hello | 09:47 |
| dr3ad | because they need to use software that is proprietary for work | 09:47 |
| dr3ad | and the learning curve to change here may be too steep | 09:48 |
| nayyares | i am using a non open source driver for finger print device. the company only provides 32bit version of the driver, but my server is 64bit, is there any way to emulate 32bit driver to 64bit? | 09:48 |
| dr3ad | next time it gets formatted will probably go linux host MS vm :) | 09:48 |
| bod_ | J49, installing hundreds of packages on a mchine that cant get to them means you have to download them 1 by 1,.,. you could write a script to apt-get all the dependencies you want then put them in a folder, then yu could burn to a cd | 09:48 |
| bod_ | richie, ok,.,. seems like your very addament it wont work,. il belive you,.,. afk for a few mins | 09:48 |
| richie | nayyares: yeah you need that 64bit to be set as a muliti lib box then install 32bit distro into a chroot | 09:49 |
| J49 | J49: Yeah but apt will not download them onto my machine as I already have the packages installed (just not the packages themselves) | 09:49 |
| ActionParsnip | dr3ad, I hate that proprietary stuff. does it run in wine? | 09:49 |
| J49 | bod_: Is there anyway to force apt to redownload them | 09:49 |
| J49 | ? | 09:49 |
| richie | nayyares: then you cn exec it like chroot /to/ROOT.of32bit foo | 09:49 |
| ActionParsnip | !wine | dr3ad | 09:50 |
| dr3ad | havent tried as yet | 09:50 |
| nayyares | richie, can you please point me to some link for this stuff ! | 09:50 |
| dr3ad | just got this up and running | 09:50 |
| ubotu | dr3ad: WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information, and see !AppDB for application compatibility. | 09:50 |
| dr3ad | yeah heard of wine, and winex etc | 09:50 |
| richie | nayyares: google 32bit chroot for 64bit box | 09:50 |
| dr3ad | brb | 09:50 |
| steel_lady | I DL a movie but I can't see it because it shows only a bunch of colors on the screen! I am using VLC | 09:51 |

| nayyares | richie, yeah i found some links, thank you very much. | 09:53 |
| dr3ad | all the compilers and languages | 09:53 |
| richie | dr3ad: for what ? | 09:54 |

| dr3ad | python | 09:54 |
| dr3ad | to learn :) | 09:54 |

| bod_ | Kud_, thats just a different thing then rub,. shouldnt make a difference,.,. u can try though | 10:20 |
| hyw | bod_: user@user | 10:20 |
| bod_ | hyw, then none of your sound cards are being detected | 10:20 |
| Nix | anyone know how to fix this? 'E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem. | 10:20 |
| Nix | E: _cache->open() failed, please report' ?? stupid thing | 10:20 |
| ArthurArchnix | You've got two older soundcards. There was no need to compile your own. The alsa versions included in gutsy were sufficient. Your onboard probably didn't work because it's blacklisted by gutsy. | 10:21 |
| bod_ | Nix, why not just do what it says? | 10:21 |
| ArthurArchnix | hyw: ^^ | 10:21 |
| ActionParsnip | hyw, your konsole can do ssh | 10:21 |
| PhilcoBill | Under the linux file systems is there ever a need for defragging? | 10:21 |
| Chousuke | PhilcoBill: not really | 10:21 |
| hyw | bod_: actually they were, but when I followed the steps in the link I pasted earlier from ubuntu forums it removed all my soundcards | 10:21 |
| bod_ | PhilcoBill, no, unless you fill your drive more than 95% | 10:21 |
| Chousuke | PhilcoBill: most filesystems don't even have defragging tools for them :/ | 10:22 |
| Nix | bod, i don't know how... | 10:22 |
| bod_ | hyw, hahah,.,. i wasnt hear, gimme the link and we'll try and undo whatever it was you did | 10:22 |
| bod_ | Nix, in terminal type dpkg --configure -a | 10:22 |
| jscinoz | hey guys, i'm trying to follow this guide https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH_VPN and i've done everything it says but when i run ssh host -w0:0 the tun0 interfaces arent created, what am i doing wrong? | 10:22 |
| hyw | bod_: having difficulties to paste things here 1 min | 10:23 |
| bod_ | kk | 10:23 |
| PhilcoBill | I am running a little file server and the drives are about 60 to 70 percent full. Access time to the files seems a bit slow at times | 10:23 |
| ArthurArchnix | hyw: bod_ What you need to do is go back to how things were, maybe simply reinstalling everything that you uninstalled will work. Then restart. Then make sure that these modules are loaded: snd-intel8x0, snd-pcm-oss, snd-mixer-oss, snd-seq-oss Unplug the audigy soundcard too, until you get intel working. If snd-intel8x0 isn't loaded, or if any of them aren't, then go poke around in /etc/blacklist... it could be they've been | 10:23 |
| bod_ | PhilcoBill, if you want i can go into detail about why you cant fragment an ext3 file system,.,. but its lengthy | 10:23 |
| linduxed | In need of help with following: http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/ubuntu-help/117014-wifi-gone.html | 10:24 |
| Nix | bod_,it says 'dpkg: requested operation requires superuser privilege | 10:24 |
| Nix | ' | 10:24 |
| PhilcoBill | bod_ I know that the linux file system is unique | 10:24 |
| bod_ | ArthurArchnix, i got a plan,. im gonna do the opposite and in reverse everything in the forum link, then try asoundconf to select a efault card then remove others | 10:24 |
| PhilcoBill | Okay, how about a windows files system under linux | 10:24 |
| ActionParsnip | Nix, try sudo dpkg ....... | 10:24 |
| bod_ | Nix, run sudo dpkg --configure -a | 10:25 |
| ArthurArchnix | bod_: the instructions he followed: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=455147 the output of his lspci: http://pastebin.com/m3a9ee07 the alsa link to his intel card: http://www.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Matrix:Module-intel8x0 ok. I've got to run. Good luck. | 10:25 |

| bod_ | PhilcoBill, its the way data is stored,.,. google for it,.,. why does ntfs need defraging and ext 3 doesnt | 10:26 |
| richie | steel_lady: get deb-gview to search whats in a package you install , then look for a /bin/ listing and those are the executables | 10:26 |
| icmp | I have a question. How come when you install a package via apt it, for exmaple, takes up 30mb. But when you remove it , it frees up like 16kb? | 10:26 |
| richie | icmp: i llike the nick :) | 10:26 |
| Nix | bod_ name@name-laptop:~$...what does it want me to type now? | 10:27 |

| bod_ | hyw, someone says you have an alsa problem,. they tell you to delete alsa, you do it,.,.haha,.,. reinstall these 2 packages alsa-base alsa-tools | 10:28 |
| bod_ | Nix, nothig | 10:28 |
| bod_ | nothing* | 10:28 |
| ActionParsnip | icmp, use sudo apt-get autoremove | 10:28 |
| hyw | bod_: lol I just installed ubuntu 2 days back | 10:28 |
| ActionParsnip | icmp, this will remove orphaned libs | 10:28 |
| Jafet | Ubuntu hangs and I hard reboot. After that, it takes about five minutes of frantic disk activity to bring up the bootup progress bar again. Is there some common reason for this? | 10:28 |
| bod_ | hyw, oh ok,.,. uninstalling alsa is a bad move,. and following a tuto for a different distro i woudnt trust either,,. even if it is stil ubuntu related | 10:29 |
| hyw | bod_: and this is the sixth time, whenever I install it a problem appears the first day since 6.06 | 10:29 |
| richie | Jafet: souunds like a hdd is going bad | 10:29 |
| hyw | bod_: hmm | 10:29 |
| bod_ | hyw, well,. i have had only a few probs,. and all the essential ones are fixed, but nitpicky things arent yet | 10:30 |

| CroX | How can I reinstall Gnome only? What package(s)? | 10:30 |
| richie | Jafet: or could be your cable or controller card | 10:30 |

| Nix | bod_, cheers mate =] working again now | 10:30 |
| JMhaha | hi, everybody | 10:30 |
| icmp | I see | 10:30 |
| hyw | bod_: why u think 2 sounds cards wouldnt work though it is a new install | 10:30 |
| Jafet | richie, well, it's an external disk in a Cooler Master. | 10:30 |
| JMhaha | may I know how to test which port is blocked by firewall in ubuntu? | 10:30 |
| === rabidweezle_ is now known as RabidWeezle | ||
| jscinoz | icmp, purge removes the programs left over configuration files, to remove orphaned packages install deborphan | 10:30 |
| bod_ | Nix, no probs,.,. whenever you get an error, read it,. if it says try and then in quotes 'do something like this' its usually worth trying,.,. ;~) | 10:31 |
| Jafet | JMhaha, a firewall running on Ubuntu or a firewall on your network? | 10:31 |
| jscinoz | icmp then run "deborphan | xargs sudo apt-get remove" | 10:31 |
| richie | Jafet: ok and ?? they all go bad, but check the cables 1st try other ones | 10:31 |
| JMhaha | firewall in ubuntu | 10:31 |
| bod_ | hyw, because you havent told the system which card to use,.,. its getting all confused and depressed | 10:31 |
| JMhaha | my mysql listen to the port | 10:31 |

| Jafet | richie, cables? It's connected to my notebook via USB. | 10:32 |
| richie | JMhaha: nmap the box | 10:32 |
| ivanhg | hello, i am having problem with all of my usb devices. iPod, usb memory and usb mouse don't work when plugged until I reboot the computer. I read some stuff about iPods but this actually affects all the usb devices that I plug in | 10:32 |
| Jafet | richie, Linux works completely fine, it's just the pre-boot process. | 10:32 |
| jscinoz | icmp, you can also set up a custom filter in synaptic to show orphaned packages | 10:32 |
| ivanhg | any ideas will be appreciated.10x | 10:32 |
| richie | Jafet: change the usb cable | 10:32 |
| hyw | bod_: I have no intentions of using the onboard soundcard, so I should install audigy and alsa now? | 10:32 |
| bod_ | hyw, install alsa and install any audigy packaes from ubuntu,. not from the audigy site | 10:33 |
| richie | Jafet: ok just cause the disc might be going bad doesnt mean linux wont work | 10:33 |
| ActionParsnip | ivanhg, try modeprobe usb-storage | 10:33 |
| bod_ | hyw, prob best to remove the other card aswell | 10:33 |
| hyw | bod_: install alsamixer from add remove? | 10:33 |
| Jafet | richie, I doubt the problem is with the cable, and this is some vendor-specific cable, I think... | 10:33 |
| richie | Jafet: i said try differnt cable ... or not | 10:34 |
| hyw | bod_: remove the other card how? | 10:34 |
| bod_ | synaptic or apt-get not add/remove synaptic and apt will get you further in ubuntu life then add/remove will | 10:34 |
| bod_ | hyw, i thought you said you had onboard and two plug in cards? | 10:34 |
| hyw | bod_: the one I need is not onboard | 10:34 |
| bod_ | ^^^^^^ | 10:34 |
| richie | Jafet: and youd be shocked at how cables can just up and die | 10:34 |
| hyw | it is crapy.. intel onboard :S | 10:34 |
| hyw | audigy is hd | 10:35 |
| Jafet | richie, well, thanks then, but I don't think I'll try it. I just wondered if it could be a software problem. | 10:35 |
| bod_ | hyw, ok,.,. so 1 onboard and 1 pci card,.,. cool | 10:35 |
| richie | Jafet: naw not a software issue | 10:35 |

| richie | jin: mencoder or ffmpeg | 10:36 |
| hyw | bod_: u meant by installing alsa is alsamixer from add/ remove? | 10:36 |

| cool^tom | Hi. My Right arrow key does not work. I think it is a problem with ubuntu. The Reason I'm so sure is because the right arrow key also is the birghten key and I can use the brighten function but I cannot move the cursor right. | 11:30 |
| hyw | richie: no sounds with both cards | 11:30 |
| vvallora | it seems that evolution-exchange does not use gnome proxy settings | 11:30 |
| richie | hyw: its not a matter of fixing as it is just missing support in uyour kernel | 11:30 |
| richie | hyw: reinstall the kernel | 11:30 |
| vvallora | I'm on ubuntu 7.10 | 11:30 |
| cool^tom | Anybody faced a smilier problem. | 11:30 |
| ActionParsnip | vvallora, maybe there is a conf file for it | 11:31 |
| jescis | richie: it points to line 1096 in /usr/bin/make-kpkg which is a system command in an ifelse structure. | 11:31 |

| vvallora | no, there is no config file. Before ubuntu I was on opensuse and it worked fine | 11:32 |
| ActionParsnip | hyw, not root...sudo (or gksudo for gui apps) | 11:32 |

| amer__ | :) | 11:32 |
| richie | ActionParsnip: that root | 11:32 |
| ActionParsnip | vvallora, not sure as it not something i use. try www.google.com | 11:32 |
| vvallora | evolution-exchange should read proxy settings from gconf, but it does not | 11:32 |
| ActionParsnip | richie, i'd call running as root if you su to root. sudo is different to me | 11:32 |
| vvallora | I tried www.google.com... this irc channel is my last hope :) | 11:33 |
| richie | ActionParsnip: but is isnt | 11:33 |
| hyw | richie: couldnt find idk package | 11:33 |
| ActionParsnip | lol | 11:33 |
| cool^tom | ActionParsnip: I do not think so. F4 is also the suspend key. So if function key is pressed pressing f4 should suspend the computer but that is not happening. | 11:33 |
| jescis | vvallora: I feel ya ;) | 11:33 |
| richie | hyw: :\ change that to the correct name | 11:33 |

If reinstalling alsa-base hasn't fixed it then he's probably going to have to reinstall. And not try to build alsa-drivers from source without first learning what synaptic is :P | 11:42 |

| wildman | I've noticed this behavior in 'composite' long ago (at Ubuntu 6.x time), but I thought the problem was elsewhere... | 11:47 |
| jescis | richie: I found out why it didn't work on the fakeroot part. I am not root and forgot to sudo :p | 11:47 |
| tokamone | Ich war vor einigen Tagen schon mal im Channel und habe euch gefragt was ihr von der Webseite http://www.frogged.de/ haltet. Daraufhin meinten einige von euch, dass die Farbwahl zu grell wäre. Daher möchte ich euch bitten am aktuellen Voting zum Layout der Seite teilzunehmen. Danke :) | 11:47 |
| ArthurArchnix | richie: something very simple I'd wager. I was on here earlier and when he explained it to me, this was apparently the first thing he tried. Uninstalling alsa and rebuilding from source. :) oops. | 11:47 |
| richie | jescis: ooh | 11:47 |
| kris_ph | hello.. Nginx is supported by ubuntu right? | 11:47 |
| hyw | richie: I just installed ubuntu and realised I cant hear anything, asked here couple of times but no one was around lol so I started googling and I found that post | 11:48 |
| Javid | !de > tokamone | 11:48 |
| richie | ArthurArchnix: hehe that would work if he knew wha the was doing | 11:48 |
| richie | hyw: ooh . well its all smoke and mirrors | 11:49 |
| richie | really | 11:49 |
| ArthurArchnix | hyw: So you got a plan now right? You're going to disable onboard sound. Reinstall. And not follow posts you find online that say anything about "compiling". | 11:49 |
| richie | lol yeah ubuntu isnt a distro to use if you want to compile | 11:49 |
| hyw | ArthurArchnix: yeah I guess thats what I am giong to do disable then start from scratch | 11:49 |
| richie | you can sure but you need the ools 1st | 11:50 |
| QuickGold | !ask | 11:50 |

| richie | tools | 11:50 |
| pajamian | you can compile with ubuntu, but I would only do it for specific programs and not subsystems and libraries that half the system relies on. | 11:50 |

| wildman | hello, I have a problem with Imagemagick (6.2.4, Ubuntu's 7.1 default), its 'composite' program does *not* compose images at all. I've compiled my own ImageMagick (6.3.9.7, latest available last week) and 'composite' does compose images as it's supposed to. any ideas? | 11:50 |
| villegas | TY | 11:50 |
| villegas | Y | 11:50 |
| richie | anyway ArthurArchnix hyw and jescis isst been fun i must goto work now l8r | 11:50 |

| villegas | YJ | 11:50 |
| hyw | richie: what does it mean to compile in ubuntu btw | 11:50 |
| richie | hyw: you need gcc glibc and binutils | 11:51 |
| Javid | Half the time, when I follow compiling instructions to the letter, it just shits itself and doesn't compile anyway | 11:51 |
| richie | they arent installed by default | 11:51 |
| hyw | richie: lol nice terms | 11:51 |
| pajamian | Javid: usually that's because you don't have all the dependancies installed for compiling. | 11:51 |
| wildman | Javid, cuz you have to change some libs by the ones already available on your system (installing the proper 'dev' packages) | 11:52 |
| hyw | ArthurArchnix: are u familiar with konsole for ssh? | 11:52 |
| Javid | When I say "to the letter", I'm not kidding | 11:52 |
| ArthurArchnix | hyw No. | 11:52 |
| hyw | ah np | 11:52 |
| Javid | I'm just glad I don't need to compile stuff much | 11:52 |
| wildman | Javid, unless the letter was writting for Ubuntu, you have to change some libs for the ones already available | 11:52 |
| vallhalla81 | hyw:have you lookied in to using putty? | 11:52 |
| pajamian | Javid: yes, but often times the README or INSTALL files that comes with the package you want to compile doesn't specify all the libs you need. | 11:53 |
| hyw | vallhalla81: I am using putty but was advised to use konsole | 11:53 |
| Javid | Not my fault if people don't document properly. :v | 11:53 |
| hyw | vallhalla81: putty is weird with linux it seems | 11:53 |
| pajamian | Javid: the easiest way is if ubuntu has that program but you want to compile for some other reason, you can tell ubuntu to install all the libs needed to compile the program in one shot. | 11:53 |
| Pici | hyw: ssh user@hostname, thats how you ssh from any terminal. | 11:53 |
| vallhalla81 | hyw: ah ok thn i have never had trouble on puty | 11:53 |

| vallhalla81 | Pici: can it not also be username@ip? | 11:54 |
| hyw | Pici: Id like to connect to port 2222 | 11:54 |
| === stefan__ is now known as StefanW | ||
| Pici | vallhalla81: of course. | 11:54 |
| Pici | hyw: fine: ssh username@host:2222 | 11:54 |
| pajamian | Javid: I usually recommend something like: sudo apt-get build-dep packagename | 11:55 |
| pajamian | Javid: then after that completes the program will compile no problem. | 11:56 |
| hyw | Pici: without:2222 it says ssh connect to host blinkenshell.org port 22: connection timed out | 11:56 |
| hyw | Pici: with:2222 name or service not know3n | 11:56 |
| Pici | hyw: sorry, try: ssh user@host -p 2222 | 11:57 |

| === CE_BASSIST__ is now known as fiton | ||
| ArthurArchnix | hyw: You're not remotely accessing this machine you're installing ubuntu on, are you? | 11:58 |
| MM2 | I had LVM installed in this server, but now I want install whole server from stratch. How I remove any existing LVM data? I don't need to save data. | 11:58 |
| hyw | Pici: thanks it worked | 11:58 |
| wildman | BCMM, it just indicates that partition is full | 11:59 |
| wildman | BCMM (in practical terms, even if 436 < 459) | 11:59 |
| hyw | ArthurArchnix: I installed ubuntu on my machine then installed putty | 11:59 |
| pajamian | MM2: manually partition and delete all the partitions, then start over. | 11:59 |
| BCMM | wildman, i know it is full, but why is it full with that little data on it? | 11:59 |
| BCMM | wildman, especially as it fitted on that drive before i backed up and reformatted? | 12:00 |
| wildman | Used = 436GB/459GB is not 'little' data... | 12:00 |
| wildman | it's 400GB+ of data | 12:00 |
| MM2 | pajamian: install program still founds old LVM data and won't reinstall | 12:00 |
| pajamian | MM2: using the alternate install disk? | 12:00 |
| MM2 | pajamian: No, server install CD | 12:00 |
| pajamian | MM2: ok, I don't have experience with the server install, but it should work just fine. I would manually partition everything, though. | 12:01 |
| wildman | BCMM is that drive FAT32-formatted? | 12:01 |
| BCMM | wildman, ext3 | 12:01 |
| wildman | BCMM, strange, because ext3 has little fragmentation... | 12:02 |
| soundray | BCMM: you can change the number of reserved blocks (man tune2fs) | 12:02 |
| BCMM | there should be no fragmentation as all i've done is format and start moving files | 12:02 |
| wers | firefox 3 is so cool! | 12:02 |
| wers | oops. offtopic. hehehe | 12:03 |
| BCMM | it was ext3 formatted before, but it was done by a horrible network attached storage machine | 12:03 |
| Pici | There is a bit of overhead when using ext3, but I dont know what it is offhand. | 12:03 |
| BCMM | and i don't know what params it uses | 12:03 |
| ikonia | Pici: its the journaling | 12:03 |
| Uatec | hi there | 12:03 |
| pajamian | MM2: you can always wipe the boot sector and partition table with DD, that should trash anything that's there. | 12:03 |
| === Cew_pEnen_ehem is now known as Cew_chUbHYz | ||
| MM2 | pajamian: I tried that... | 12:04 |
| pajamian | MM2: errr: dd (lowercase) | 12:04 |
| Uatec | i just launched the ubuntu live CD, however when i move my mouse, it's all buggered up | 12:04 |
| Uatec | there appears to be a delay | 12:04 |
| Uatec | and it's different on the X and Y axes | 12:04 |
| BCMM | soundray, ah, htat would be it | 12:04 |
| Uatec | when i move my mouse the cursor moves | 12:04 |
| BCMM | soundray, that device doesn't need reserved blocks anyway | 12:04 |
| ere4si | Uatec, how much memory do you have? | 12:05 |
| Uatec | but the amount it moves is vaguely related to how much i moved the mouse, but i can't figure out what it is | 12:05 |
| MM2 | pajamian: I tried this: "dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda bs=1k count=10" | 12:05 |
| Uatec | does anybody know what it might be? | 12:05 |
| Uatec | ere4si, 512meg | 12:05 |
| ikonia | Uatec: video card driver ? | 12:05 |
| pajamian | Uatec: the live CD is slow because it has to read programs and files directly off the CD (and doesn't have access to use the HDD to store things), when you install ubuntu it should be fine. | 12:05 |
| ere4si | Uatec, should be enough | 12:05 |
| soundray | MM2: did you get an error? | 12:05 |
| ikonia | MM2: the boot sector is 2 blocks ? | 12:05 |
| ikonia | sorry 10 | 12:05 |
| BCMM | can i do tune2fs while it's mounted? | 12:06 |
| willis_ | BCMM, i have befor. But some changes may not take effect untill it gets remounted. | 12:06 |
| Uatec | pajamian, it's running really fast, it's just the mouse which is behaving strangely | 12:06 |
| soundray | BCMM: I think you can use -m while it's mounted. If not, it'll tell you | 12:06 |
| BCMM | thanks | 12:06 |
| wildman | bbl, cya | 12:06 |
| MM2 | Well, looks like installing to clean disk with and then installing again with different hostna did the trick | 12:07 |
| === WildExPat is now known as pl4sMa | ||
| MM2 | hostname even. Now I must install again to real hostname :) I hope | 12:07 |
| Uatec | ikonia, it's running in parallels, and i don't see that there is a problem with the video driver | 12:07 |
| Uatec | i mean graphically everything is great | 12:07 |
| ikonia | ahhh a vm | 12:07 |
| Uatec | it's just the strange mouse behavior | 12:08 |
| pajamian | Uatec: only way to tell for sure is to install it and see. My guess is it will clear right up on a proper install. | 12:08 |
| ikonia | I think thats probably the problem. | 12:08 |
| Uatec | although i did just find the parallels toolkit | 12:08 |
| Uatec | which i'm going to install, see if that fixes it | 12:08 |
| pajamian | MM2: the correct command is something like: dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/hda bs=512 count=1 | 12:08 |
| pajamian | MM2: your command should have done it, though, it's just overkill | 12:08 |
| MM2 | pajamian: Nope, I have raid | 12:08 |
| Uatec | i can't really install it, i'm struggling to get to the install icon, lol | 12:09 |
| pajamian | MM2: I cut and pasted that line, change hda to whatever is appropriate. | 12:09 |
| ikonia | Uatec: try using the alternative cd without the gui - that may make it easier if you've only got 512 ram | 12:09 |
| MM2 | pajamian: which partition holds LVM information? | 12:09 |
| pajamian | Uatec: try the alternate install cd | 12:09 |
| ikonia | MM2 private sector | 12:09 |
| ikonia | MM2: it's not a partition | 12:09 |
| pajamian | MM2: whatever partition you designate for LVM. If you wipe the master partition it shouldn't matter. | 12:10 |
| ere4si | Uatec, what's the hardware? | 12:10 |
| pajamian | MM2: I mean the primary partition table | 12:10 |
| pajamian | MM2: the command you used should have worked, you need to do it as root (or sudo) and not have the drive mounted at the time, though (boot to live cd) | 12:12 |
| MM2 | Yes, I did it as a root. I try again with some new installs :) | 12:12 |
| MM2 | pajamian: I just want to wipe LVM out and start over | 12:12 |
| pajamian | MM2: yep, to be honest it should work to just select manual partitioning and wipe everything, then add the partitions the way you want during install. | 12:13 |
| pajamian | MM2: dd should not even be necessary. | 12:13 |
| MM2 | pajamian: It is not that easy. Install process hangs if it founds about old LVM | 12:14 |
| MM2 | pajamian: Actually this is ubuntu+1 server, but I think it is the same for ubuntu | 12:14 |
| pajamian | MM2: #ubuntu+1 | 12:15 |
| MM2 | :] | 12:15 |
| pajamian | ok, I need to go, time for bed | 12:15 |
| pajamian | goodnight everyone | 12:15 |
| thomas_ | join #gsoc | 12:16 |
| Uatec | ikonia, it's not a performance problem, it's running like lightning, it's a mouse problem, that's all, i can tell by it's strange behavior, keyboard is fine | 12:16 |
| Uatec | i can up it to 1gig if you think it'll make a difference, but i can't imagine that it would | 12:17 |

| DoXiD | Hey, first off i know this is the totally wrong place to ask my following question but this channel is the best there is so i'll go ahead anyway this time if thats ok. Is there any way to import/open a file (*.tiff) in Photoshop/Acrobat with OCR? | 12:18 |
| Uatec | computer parts? well it's a virtual machine so that's not really relevant.. also i don't know :P | 12:18 |
| DoXiD | Having a hard time finding a application that can actually read Dutch characters with OCR | 12:18 |
| willis_ | DoXiD, there are OCR tools for linux.. but they dont have anything to do with Photoshop/acrobat | 12:18 |
| Uatec | DoXiD, characters like what? | 12:18 |
| willis_ | but ive never used any of the ocr stuff. | 12:19 |
| DoXiD | willis_, i know, using windows at work atm. | 12:19 |
| ere4si | Uatec, virtual or not - it matters | 12:19 |
| DoXiD | Uatec, Any.. the dutch language is a bit different from the enligsh language :P | 12:19 |
| DoXiD | tesseract was my best bet, but had some problems opening my tiff files and reading the dutch language. | 12:19 |
| Jahromeo | who is dutch? | 12:19 |
| DoXiD | My book :P | 12:20 |
| laughzilla | hi :) anyone know how to add a motorola 3g cellphone driver to ubuntu? i can't find it in Synaptic ... | 12:20 |
| Jahromeo | i can speak afrikaans which is baby dutch :P | 12:20 |
| bod_ | gd 4 u | 12:20 |
| Jahromeo | friendly arent you bod_ | 12:21 |
| bod_ | Jahromeo, and bubbly ;~) | 12:21 |
| Uatec | ere4si, i couldn't tell you, i wonder where it says on the paralllels website | 12:21 |
| sinbox | laughzilla, have you checked there actually is one? | 12:21 |
| ere4si | Uatec, parellels? | 12:22 |

| ere4si | Uatec, mac stuff? - blrghhh | 12:23 |
| Uatec | mac stuff? | 12:24 |
| Uatec | it's not mac stuff | 12:24 |
| willis_ | QuickGold, run top, or htop and see whats sucvking the cpu | 12:24 |
| Uatec | i'm running it on vista | 12:24 |
| QuickGold | willis_: Let me check | 12:24 |
| Uatec | the mac version has some really cool vista integration | 12:24 |
| Uatec | but that's it | 12:24 |
| minimec | QuickGold: Open a terminal and type 'top' See what process is eating all your resources. | 12:24 |
| QuickGold | a command called "beagle-build-in" is using quite a bit of my CPU | 12:25 |
| ere4si | Uatec, first five google results were mac related... | 12:25 |
| Uatec | so? | 12:25 |
| Uatec | if you google for bush the first five results will be george W related, doesn't mean that they're not a kind of plant | 12:25 |
| ere4si | hehe | 12:26 |

| QuickGold | a command called "beagle-build-in" is using 80% or more of my CPU....how do I fix this? | 12:27 |
| minimec | QuickGold: Beagle is a desktop search daemon... I guess you installed that one, as gnome uses tracker as search tool. I would demove beagle, as Tracker is good enough... (I don't even use a search daemon) | 12:27 |
| QuickGold | minimec: apt-get remove beagle? | 12:28 |
| willis_ | QuickGold, thats a search/indexer tool. its running.. untill it gets done.. | 12:28 |
| willis_ | so you can disable it.. or wait and let it run, and learn how to use it. | 12:28 |
| QuickGold | willis_: Thanks | 12:28 |

| Jack_Sparrow | LinkSys router.. with built in firewall | 12:40 |
| darkblue_B | I get Connection reset by peer | 12:40 |
| darkblue_B | none of my other SSH connects d o this | 12:40 |
| darkblue_B | ?? | 12:40 |
| Dr__willis | enable verbose logging of ssh on the server thats the problem? | 12:41 |
| v3ctor | darkblue_B: are you usging a shell with an auto logout feature? | 12:41 |
| darkblue_B | although this is to a particular location .. with its own llocal router | 12:41 |
| darkblue_B | v3ctor: no, other machines are not doing this.. same shell | 12:41 |
| laughzilla | jack | 12:41 |

| Jack_Sparrow | laughzilla, | 12:41 |
| laughzilla | jack_sparrow : http://paste.stgraber.org/1679 | 12:41 |
| Dr__willis | darkblue_B: try sshing to a different box, and then ssh again from that box to the odd box. | 12:42 |
| Dr__willis | darkblue_B: the same place you were at with the ssh configs. | 12:42 |
| darkblue_B | aha | 12:42 |
| Dr__willis | Im just thinking of basic troubleshooting things to try | 12:42 |
| ere4si | using the net instak | 12:42 |

| Toznoshio | Q: On a dual-boot machine, with Ubuntu loaded, how do I hook a virtual machine into the Windows XP installation? | 12:44 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !minimal | 12:44 |
| ubotu | The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 12:44 |
| v3ctor | darkblue_B: does it kill the session even if you are actively using it, or is it when idle? | 12:45 |
| laughzilla | jack_sparrow - thanks ... now if i can just figure out how to add the cellphone in question to be readable by this computer. | 12:45 |
| Jack_Sparrow | laughzilla, some of those are a real trick.. | 12:45 |
| darkblue_B | v3ctor: idle only | 12:45 |

| Nikki85 | Jack_Sparrow do u use opera? | 12:55 |

| Jack_Sparrow | Nikki85, Treid it once, had problems stayed with Firefox | 12:55 |
| newwind | does anyone want to explain how to download a Ubuntu file. I get junk on the screen when I try to in Ubuntu. | 12:56 |
| Nikki85 | Jack_Sparrow okay...jz wanna try out other lighter browsers | 12:56 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Nikki85, I understand flash and opera are having issues. there is supposed to be some info on Operas' site | 12:57 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Nikki85, I dont consider Opera light | 12:57 |
| Jack_Sparrow | newwind, apt-get, aptitude, synaptic | 12:57 |
| Jack_Sparrow | newwind, How are you trying to download? | 12:58 |
| sinbox | Toznoshio, depending on what you need to do wine might be a better solution, I'm not sure if you can run an existing install in a virtual machine | 12:58 |
| newwind | by just clicking on the file | 12:58 |
| Jack_Sparrow | newwind, Please provide a link to what you are having trouble downloading | 12:59 |
| laughzilla | jack_sparrow -- http://onlyubuntu.blogspot.com/search?q=v3x "How to connect Motorola V3X to ubuntu 7.04 trough USB" | 12:59 |
| laughzilla | i have 7.10 ... i hope it will work the same | 12:59 |
| Nikki85 | Jack_Sparrow y dont u think opera is light? well its lighter than firefox LOL | 13:00 |
| newwind | I keep reading about the Repositories as the traditional way to get things | 13:00 |
| corinne_ | Yo! | 13:00 |
| Nikki85 | Jack_Sparrow do u know any other light web browser that u can recommend me to use? | 13:00 |
| Jack_Sparrow | laughzilla, you did it.. that should work.. let me know if you have any problems | 13:01 |
| ere4si | Jack_Sparrow, the net install cd I referred to is the minimal cd - sorry I wasn't clear on that :) | 13:01 |
| Nikki85 | Jack_Sparrow i tried midori, i like it...but i can't do much with it...bcos its very basic n still under developement | 13:01 |
| corinne_ | Quick question! | 13:01 |
| corinne_ | I installed ubuntu last night, and my machine no longer recognizes my speakers when I plug them in | 13:01 |
| steph_ | what is your soundcard ? | 13:02 |
| Jack_Sparrow | newwind, yes, the repos are the best way to install anything.. you access the repos using synaptic, apt-get or aptitude | 13:02 |
| corinne_ | um... | 13:02 |
| sinbox | corinne_, USB speakers or via minijack on the soundcard? | 13:02 |
| Jack_Sparrow | corinne_, /j #Alsa they work specifically on the sound issues | 13:02 |
| corinne_ | It's not a USB | 13:03 |
| corinne_ | they plug in the same way headphones plug in | 13:03 |
| kris_ph | to update ubuntu by doing sudo apt-get update/upgrade...any other means? | 13:03 |
| minimec | corinne_: So you have a sound problem. Open gnome-volume-control and verify that the volume is ok. OPen gstreamer-properties and play around a bit. | 13:03 |
| corinne_ | How do I find out what my soundcard is? | 13:03 |
| bytecode | Nikki85: you might want to try epiphany, it seems to take advantage of the installed media players that you may have installed for firefox, but it seems lighter-weight in use. Galeon is handy as well. | 13:03 |
| Nikki85 | bytecode i will try them out! | 13:03 |
| Nikki85 | bytecode thx very much :) | 13:04 |
| newwind | jack do you know an example of a real aptitude example for me to see on the screen or would that mess up this chat session? | 13:04 |
| steph_ | m | 13:04 |
| corinne_ | volume is fine | 13:04 |
| corinne_ | it plays sound through the machine | 13:04 |
| steph_ | ok | 13:04 |
| minimec | corinne_: gnome-control-center --> Hardware, Audio ... | 13:04 |
| corinne_ | but it won't recognize the speakers | 13:04 |
| steph_ | have you chcked the mixer ? | 13:05 |
| bytecode | Nikki85: It may be over kill for your needs - but I tend to have a selection of browsers at my disposal as it allows me to log into the same website under separate sessions for testing when I'm developeing. | 13:05 |
| Jack_Sparrow | newwind, from a terminal type this .. sudo apt-get install pastebinit && cat /etc/apt/sources.list | pastebinit (Provide Pastebin link in channel) | 13:05 |
| Jack_Sparrow | newwind, add shift to regular cut and paste commands when using terminal | 13:05 |

| corinne_ | where do I find gnome? | 13:05 |
| asker | hi, i have got a big pdf file and i want to split it into 3 smaller files. how can i do that in ubuntu? (just splitting or removing some pages and save the pdf under a new name!) tried that with pdfeditor, but saving under a new file is not working. | 13:06 |
| steph_ | double click your volume icon | 13:06 |
| steph_ | haven't you muted anything ? | 13:07 |
| corinne_ | oh | 13:07 |
| corinne_ | yes, I've done that | 13:07 |

| Kaapa | hello. How can I change the initlevel in ubuntu? | 13:07 |
| corinne_ | ok, I found that! now what? | 13:07 |
| Kaapa | I wanna change to console and not X | 13:08 |
| minimec | Kaapa: ctrl+alt+f1 | 13:08 |
| Srsly | so windows acts REALLY weird. I have ubuntu in a vm now and like it, if i boot from it i can create partitions right? | 13:08 |
| Kaapa | minimec, not that, at boot time | 13:08 |
| minimec | Kaapa: alt+f7 brings you back to x | 13:08 |
| Srsly | Or should i download a partition manager first | 13:08 |
| asker | it is very urgent, because it need those 3 files for an online application. | 13:08 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Srsly, no | 13:08 |
| laughzilla | jack_sparrow ... i'm stuck on this step, probably cuz i'm dumb .. cd $HOME/.qt ... my system tells me there's no such location ... should i just do: cd home/.qt ?? | 13:08 |
| minimec | Kaapa: You could start in save mode or stop the gdm daemon | 13:09 |
| Jack_Sparrow | laughzilla, cd /home/.qt | 13:09 |
| laughzilla | hm nope that doesn't exist either | 13:09 |

| minimec | corinne_: ok. We first have to verify your kernel... | 13:22 |
| bytecode | Nikki85: within Opera, go to tools->preferences->Downloads, untick the "Hide file types opened with opera" option, type torrent into the "quick find" box and you can edit or delete the handler option for torrent files | 13:22 |

| dgjones | Uatec, what error do you get when you run sudo application name? does it ask for your password, or just give an error message straight off? | 13:35 |
| Uatec | the weird thing is, i just tried to do auto update, and it accepted my password to do that | 13:35 |
| icewaterman | hi how does ubuntu for amd64 handle mesa libraries for 32bit apps? | 13:36 |
| directhex|work | icewaterman, sensibly | 13:36 |
| icewaterman | thing is, 32-bit apps lack 3d acceleration while they work fine with 64-bit apps | 13:36 |
| jrib | directhex|work: I agree, the advantage is you know what's going on. I don't know if envy does anything more than what you are going to do on that page | 13:36 |
| Uatec | dgjones, it gives me Permission Denied when it ry to sudo and run my script | 13:36 |
| Uatec | and it gives me Authentication Failure when i just try to su | 13:36 |
| Lyricaldogg | Legend2440: i'm now tryin it, thanx | 13:36 |
| Uatec | Lyricaldogg, sudo -s worked :P | 13:36 |
| icewaterman | directhex|work: the drivers for 32bit are installed and work, if i manually set the env variable: LIBGL_DRIVERS_PATH=/usr/lib32/dri | 13:36 |
| jrib | !sudo > uatec (read the private message from ubotu) | 13:37 |
| directhex|work | jrib, builds packages, places approriate redirects & conflicts | 13:37 |
| Jack_Sparrow | laughzilla, I think I figured it out | 13:37 |
| Lyricaldogg | Uatec : happy days | 13:37 |
| corinne_ | ok, I gtg to work | 13:37 |
| Uatec | lol, the problem with sudo was that i didn't have permission to execute from the CD | 13:37 |
| Uatec | weird | 13:37 |
| corinne_ | I will battle this when I get home | 13:37 |
| corinne_ | bye, and thanks for your help! | 13:37 |
| Jack_Sparrow | laughzilla, go to term.. run moto4lin then shut it down | 13:37 |
| simara | hey, my fisrt time here... everyone help me please.... | 13:37 |
| icewaterman | that worked before automatically but does require manual intervention now. dunno why though. | 13:37 |
| laughzilla | jack_sparrow i found it in /home/laugh/.qt but i can't cd into that | 13:37 |
| laughzilla | ok i did run it and shut it down, jack_sparrow | 13:37 |
| twistedbeatfreek | i need sound my computer wont play mp3's any idea | 13:38 |
| Jack_Sparrow | laughzilla, cd $HOME/.qt then ls and you will see moto4linrc | 13:38 |

| ere4si | simara, you need to say what the prob is and if someone knows they will respond | 13:39 |
| Jack_Sparrow | laughzilla, they missed a step in the tutorial | 13:39 |
| * laughzilla gives many kudows to Jack_sparrow :) got in to the dir finaly | 13:39 | |
| Jack_Sparrow | laughzilla, that file didnt exist until after you run it once | 13:39 |

| vatzec | the problem was that I didn't chmod the script, duh :P (though I have created it as root) | 13:58 |

| Jack_Sparrow | murlidhar, Quick question, how much ram are you running | 14:01 |
| RoadHazard | sleepy: on ATI card? | 14:01 |
| murlidhar | Jack_Sparrow, 256 + 512 | 14:01 |
| Jack_Sparrow | sleepy, try asking in /j #Compiz | 14:01 |
| sleepy | RoadHazard: ATI Radeon 1300x mobile | 14:02 |
| RoadHazard | need 8.42.3 driver | 14:02 |
| murlidhar | Jack_Sparrow, this happens only when firefox is running | 14:02 |
| sinbox | murlidhar, does the CPU usage not go down after firefox started? | 14:02 |
| minimec | murlidhar: I would stop some services like tracker... | 14:02 |
| murlidhar | minimec, i have removed tracker | 14:02 |
| Jack_Sparrow | murlidhar, Ok.. that covers the basics.. on the 256 machine, is that shared video ram, and if so how much ram are you diverting to the video | 14:03 |
| murlidhar | sinbox, no | 14:03 |
| sleepy | RoadHazard: I am brand new to linux, and I don't want to mess up, how do I get that driver? | 14:03 |
| RoadHazard | uno momento | 14:03 |
| murlidhar | Jack_Sparrow, both are ddr1 | 14:03 |
| shameless | ok, i heard that the new kernel has tablet support for some computers, but i'm not sure if i've got the new kernel or not, any quick way to check? | 14:03 |
| sleepy | Thanks | 14:03 |
| genii | isa_: Reading | 14:03 |
| Jack_Sparrow | murlidhar, ddr1 is not what I was looking for, does it have an actual plug in video card, or is it part of the motherboard | 14:04 |
| RoadHazard | sleepy read this http://ubuntero.org/cochise/weblog/718.html | 14:04 |
| murlidhar | Jack_Sparrow, in built video card | 14:04 |
| murlidhar | Jack_Sparrow, part of the motherboard | 14:04 |
| minimec | murlidhar: I worked with almost your hardware until the beginnig of this year. I had no compiz activated, no services. Gnome was doing quiet well, but I switched to e17 because of my dual screen setup. e17 would be perfect for your setup. | 14:04 |
| sleepy | Thanks RoadHazard | 14:04 |
| Uatec | from tty1, what process would i have to kill to kill the whole of X? the parallels installer doesn't like having X running apparently | 14:05 |
| isa_ | genii: reading too :) (didnt know this file) | 14:05 |
| murlidhar | minimec, what is e17? | 14:05 |
| Jack_Sparrow | murlidhar, next time you boot .. check your bios to see how much of that 256 is not available to ubuntu and is locked down for use by the internal video card | 14:05 |
| minimec | murlidhar: http://www0.get-e.org/ | 14:05 |
| smokeyd | Jack_Sparrow ere4si: is there some guide somewhere on how to make a live cd using the minimal iso? It doesn't even have a squashfs root filesystem | 14:05 |
| smokeyd | so I don't know how to customize it | 14:06 |
| vallhalla81 | i had a compiz setings maniger update today | 14:06 |
| Jack_Sparrow | minimec, last time I tried enlightlement-E17 it was terrible. | 14:06 |
| vallhalla81 | and it has disabled all my 3d graphics | 14:06 |
| genii | isa_: This file specifies what modules to pre-load into the kernel when it loads the initial ramdisk, so hopefully we should see some raid modules in it | 14:06 |
| ere4si | smokeyd: it is just enough to get the necessaries from the net | 14:06 |
| Jack_Sparrow | smokeyd, Make an iso on usb bootable http://jak-linux.org/tmp/iso2usb.sh | 14:06 |
| AnRkey | how can i delete a partition table? | 14:07 |
| cute_bettong | how would one useing nvidia use the copiz cube? is it along the same lines? i got all the shiney effects working here | 14:07 |
| vallhalla81 | any sugestions? | 14:07 |
| AnRkey | not the partition but the actual partition table | 14:07 |
| Jack_Sparrow | AnRkey, gparted | 14:07 |
| murlidhar | Jack_Sparrow, brb | 14:07 |
| genii | isa_: Which there seems to not be. One minute and I'll find a good link on modifying this for you. | 14:07 |
| minimec | Jack_Sparrow: I will never(!) change again. e17 with a dual screen setup gives you two totally indipendent screens (like 2x4 Desktops). This is lovely... | 14:07 |
| Jack_Sparrow | minimec, Glad you like it... | 14:07 |
| AnRkey | Jack_Sparrow, I don't see an option to delete anything other than the partition. There seems to be nothing for deleting the actual table | 14:08 |
| isa_ | genii: but if that would be the problem, it wouldn't be able to find the / partition either ... all my partitions are on the raid ... | 14:08 |
| Jack_Sparrow | AnRkey, perhaps you should explain what you are trying to accomplish | 14:08 |
| isa_ | genii: or am i wrong in this? | 14:08 |
| Jack_Sparrow | AnRkey, partitions and table are tied together | 14:08 |
| smokeyd | ere4si: yeah that is the problem. I want to make a live cd, not an install cd. But I'll take a look at the script Jack_Sparrow, thanks | 14:08 |
| pike_ | AnRkey: gparted may be the most user friendly or the disk manager app whatever it is in the menu. you can also do sudo cfdisk or sudo fdisk in command line | 14:08 |
| cute_bettong | so what would i have to do with an nvidia card to get the compiz cube working? | 14:08 |
| minimec | Jack_Sparrow: Yeah... e17 is my WM ... Small,sober, just perfect... | 14:09 |
| genii | isa_: Is your /boot on the raided area, or a regular ext3 partition? | 14:09 |
| Jack_Sparrow | AnRkey, thay are all in the mbr in the first 512k | 14:09 |
| vignesh | when i install any package using apt-get, i see the line "ldconfig deferred processing now taking place" .. though there isn't nay problems with the installation, i jus wanna know wat does that line mean?? why does that occur?? | 14:09 |
| Jack_Sparrow | minimec, you are offtopic.. please stop pimping your wm | 14:09 |
| isa_ | genii: its in the raided area too ... there is no regular partition on this computer ... 2 harddisks ... both in the nvidia-fakeraid (raid 1) | 14:09 |
| AnRkey | Jack_Sparrow, I can't see how to delete it with fdisk either | 14:09 |
| AnRkey | Jack_Sparrow, pike_, it's driving me nuts | 14:09 |
| AnRkey | am i being a tard? | 14:10 |
| Jack_Sparrow | AnRkey, perhaps you should explain what you are trying to accomplish | 14:10 |
| AnRkey | well i am setting up a box with software raid 5 | 14:10 |
| Uatec | from tty1, what process would i have to kill to kill the whole of X? the parallels installer doesn't like having X running apparently | 14:10 |
| genii | isa_: If the /boot partition is not on a regular un-raided partition then you need to rebuild the initramfs | 14:10 |
| AnRkey | the first 50mb on each drive is /boot and is bootable | 14:10 |
| AnRkey | in a raid 1 mirror | 14:10 |
| AnRkey | and the rest of the drive space is raid 5 | 14:10 |
| isa_ | genii: i did a mkinitramfs -o /boot/initrd.img-`uname -r` | 14:11 |
| AnRkey | the box had problems with it's drives and the current kernel | 14:11 |
| AnRkey | thats sorted but i can't get the damn old md partitions wiped | 14:11 |
| AnRkey | everytime i delete them and confirm the changes | 14:11 |
| === alex_ is now known as alex12 | ||
| AnRkey | i create the raid volumes again and confirm | 14:12 |
| AnRkey | then all of a sudden the old config of the drives is just there | 14:12 |
| AnRkey | driving me nuts | 14:12 |
| AnRkey | and i can't delete them then | 14:12 |
| AnRkey | so i cant see them to delete them | 14:12 |
| Jack_Sparrow | AnRkey, I quit trying to use fakeriad or softraid.. It wasnt worth the effort. If you need raid.. get a true hardware raid sontroller | 14:12 |
| AnRkey | and i can't delete them when i can see them | 14:12 |
| vignesh | when i install any package using apt-get, i see the line "ldconfig deferred processing now taking place" .. though there isn't nay problems with the installation, i jus wanna know wat does that line mean?? why does that occur?? | 14:13 |
| genii | isa_: When you do that it just makes it with whatever is in the /etc/initramfs-tools/initramfs.conf file that we examined already. Since it does not have any raid drivers specified, none will be made into the the new ramfs | 14:13 |
| AnRkey | Jack_Sparrow, please send some of your money then :D | 14:13 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !enter | AnRkey | 14:13 |
| ubotu | AnRkey: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 14:13 |
| RoadHazard | vignesh: no problem there, it started doing that on 7.10, its not an issue | 14:13 |
| AnRkey | was waiting for that | 14:13 |

| isa_ | genii: so the kernel did somehow boot from the raid without having raid-drivers? | 14:13 |
| vignesh | RoadHazard, i know that there is no problem there.. but i jus wanted to know why does that line appear?? | 14:13 |
| vignesh | RoadHazard, ans also wat does that line mean? | 14:14 |
| pike_ | vignesh: this is a lib thing. updating links to the lib files | 14:14 |
| RoadHazard | vignesh: I dunno, I just accepted it as a new addition to 7.10 | 14:14 |
| vignesh | pike_, can u be in detail plz? | 14:14 |
| pike_ | vignesh: how much you want? | 14:15 |

| MythGuy | Hey, I have the same question! | 14:16 |
| RoadHazard | could you be a little more detailed? | 14:16 |
| cute_bettong | well that was a big help hehe | 14:16 |
| Rabbitbunny | I missed a selection during install, is there a way to run the instalation again and not reinstall? | 14:16 |
| zeta | hi everyone! | 14:17 |
| ^cyka^ | i havbe some woierd ass soundcard that is picked up | 14:17 |
| ^cyka^ | but produces no sound | 14:17 |
| genii | isa_: Please see if file /etc/initramfs-tools/modules contains lines raid1 or: raid456 | 14:17 |
| ^cyka^ | THNO it did when i first installed ubuntu | 14:17 |
| minimec | Rabbitbunny: what did you miss exactly? | 14:17 |
| zeta | somebody knows how helpme with my sound card? | 14:17 |
| MythGuy | in my case the sound card is detected at all. | 14:17 |
| Rabbitbunny | minimec: the 'LAMP Server' option during 6.10 lts-server install. used enter instead of space to select it. | 14:17 |
| ^cyka^ | mines detected as c-medi device | 14:18 |
| isa_ | genii: its disabled (# raid1) | 14:18 |
| ^cyka^ | am gonna power off and take it out | 14:18 |
| pike_ | vignesh: cat /etc/ld.so.conf and see its looking at /etc/ld.so.conf.d/* now if you cat these files youll see your lib paths. basically if youve ever gotten an error from an app saying it cant find libfile.so but you have this file you can either set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/my/dir/for/lib or this is handled for you with ld.so so you dont have to worry bout it.. thats my generic understanding of it | 14:18 |
| ^cyka^ | see if i get sound with the onboard | 14:18 |
| MythGuy | s/is/isn't/ | 14:18 |
| genii | isa_: Is your array raid1 or another kind? | 14:18 |
| Garamond | Is there a channel for the 64 bit version of Ubuntu? I'm trying to make sure if my hardware will work on 64 bit or not. Google isn't confirming or denying :( | 14:18 |
| isa_ | genii: oh :) how do i find out? | 14:18 |
| ^cyka^ | unless thereaws a conflict between teh onboard and PCI | 14:18 |
| isa_ | genii: oh ... sorry, missunderstood | 14:18 |
| Rabbitbunny | Garamond: Burn a cd and boot it. | 14:18 |
| minimec | Rabbitbunny: So what you need is apache2 mysql and php5. -->Open alt+f2 gksudo synaptic | 14:19 |
| RoadHazard | Rabbitbunny: you could install a lamp server the manual way, or reinstall | 14:19 |
| isa_ | genii: its raid 1 (configured in raid-bios) | 14:19 |

| [agatha]|spi | Garamond, if you hold on a second i may be able to find you a link, is it a laptop or a desktop? | 14:19 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !find lamp | 14:19 |

| === [agatha]|spi is now known as [agatha] | ||
| Rabbitbunny | Jack_Sparrow: lamp is; Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP. | 14:19 |
| zeta | no one? | 14:19 |
| Garamond | Rabbitbunny: Oh it will boot I'm sure of that. It's my wireless I'm refferring to. There are 64 bit drivers for Vista available which I don't believe work with ndiswrapper, and questionable "Open" drivers for XP for 64 bit | 14:19 |
| Rabbitbunny | minimec: ubuntu server has no gui, there's no clicky. | 14:20 |
| RoadHazard | Garamond: what make and model is your wifi card? | 14:20 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Rabbitbunny, you should be able to apt-get all of it.. re-running the install isnt the easiest choice | 14:20 |
| minimec | Rabbitbunny: Oups ;) sudo apt-get install apache2 mysql php4 | 14:20 |
| [agatha] | Garamond, if the live cd detects the wireless it should work... at least so was with mine | 14:20 |
| Rabbitbunny | RoadHazard: Yeah, I just really didn't want to do the manual install... | 14:20 |
| Garamond | RoadHazard: WUSB300N, the chipset is a generic one that all Draft N adapters seem to have. The Marvell Topdog chipset (which doesn't have an official XP 64 driver) | 14:21 |
| Garamond | Although there is one on a site I've never used before called opendrivers.com. I was considering downloading the driver and trying it with ndiswrapper but | 14:21 |
| Garamond | I'm wary of bricking my adapter | 14:21 |
| genii | isa_: So if I understand, raid is set up in your motherboard bios? | 14:22 |
| archman | guys, why my synaptics manager says that wine 0.9.46 is the latest but there is later releases also? I did update... | 14:22 |
| isa_ | genii: yes, at boot time, you can press f2 to enter bios or wait a little and press f10 to get to a raid-configuration-screen (like bios, but not the same) | 14:22 |
| Jack_Sparrow | archman, repos will have the latest tested and stable release, not the newest | 14:22 |
| genii | isa_: This is not then what would be called fakeraid | 14:22 |
| RoadHazard | garamond perhaps this will give you an idea http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4536337 | 14:23 |
| isa_ | genii: its a raid on the motherboard ... nvidia ... | 14:23 |
| isa_ | genii: not an extra raid controller ... | 14:23 |
| murlidhar | Jack_Sparrow, AGP Aperture sixw = 64mb , Primary Video Adapter AGP , Frame Buffer Size 1mb. | 14:23 |

| Garamond | RoadHazard: Oh that's hilarious. That's my thread! I just never got an e-mail saying that someone replied to it. I guess I'll try the Vista 64 drivers | 14:24 |
| Jack_Sparrow | murlidhar, apature size is different than video ram... | 14:24 |
| isa_ | genii: hm. but the motherboard raid is a softwareraid ... or not? | 14:24 |
| alanbshepard70 | can anyone help me with this apt error http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60030/ I'm scared to reboot until it's fixed. | 14:24 |
| isa_ | genii: i used dmraid to install ubuntu on it ... | 14:24 |
| murlidhar | Jack_Sparrow, i do not have the AGP card installed cuz it got burned a long time ago. | 14:25 |
| Garamond | Although the drivers from Marvell are exclusively Vista, but hey I'll give it a shot | 14:25 |
| Jack_Sparrow | archman, It may be considered stable... but not tested and added to the repos ... it may be in HArdy already | 14:25 |
| RoadHazard | vista 64 | 14:25 |
| Garamond | RoadHazard: Correct, Vista 64. Good to be accurate | 14:25 |
| murlidhar | Jack_Sparrow, do u want me increase the aperture size to 256 mb? | 14:25 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Nurulwai, no | 14:25 |
| murlidhar | Jack_Sparrow, there is an option to do it. | 14:25 |

| genii | Jack_Sparrow: I agree. But I was working from the principle he installed software raid | 14:26 |
| RoadHazard | sleepy: did those instructions help? | 14:27 |
| minimec | sleepy: What card do you have and what did you do? | 14:27 |
| Garamond | Well, other than my wireless everything else checks out. I guess I'll be able to use 64 bit if the vista 64 drivers work out :) | 14:27 |

| Stupid^Kid | MattJ: thanks | 14:36 |
| Jack_Sparrow | sleepy, Looks like no monitor or video cards are configured... and you said sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg or sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg (to just set res) If you get locked out Select vesa as your video card and 1024 max rex. Use tab or enter to accept all other defaults locks up your pc? | 14:36 |
| magnetron | DrIP: whether you can setup your computer as a wireless AP depends heavily on what your wireless NIC you are using. my Atheros based card supports it | 14:36 |
| minimec | sleepy: I think the only thing you have to do is to change "vesa" to "fglrx" in line 74 ... | 14:36 |

| ^cyka^ | and this is reallyu starting yo piss me off | 14:48 |
| Jack_Sparrow | may, the instructions on setting default are in the file you are editing | 14:48 |
| magnetron | DrIP: i don't know about your specific card, but it seems like it doesn't support AP / Master mode | 14:48 |
| legend2440 | mohammad99: what game is it? | 14:48 |
| minimec | DrIP: Is it an usb stick or something. If yes plug it out/in and do dmesg --> pastebin me the last 3-4 lines | 14:48 |
| DrIP | magnetron: i had everything working under windows server 2k3 so i'm pretty sure it can happen under Ubuntu | 14:48 |
| DrIP | minimec: it's a PCI card | 14:49 |
| utarpradesh | Jack_Sparrow... gparted is what i thought... but there's a "locked" icon next to the device, and I cannot format it. gparted won't let me | 14:49 |
| astro76 | utarpradesh: if you are trying to get u3 off it, you will need windows to do so | 14:49 |
| brobostigon | utarpradesh: unmount it first | 14:49 |
| ^cyka^ | DrIP: this soundcard i'm having issues with worked under XP | 14:49 |
| magnetron | DrIP: both the card and driver need to support it | 14:49 |
| utarpradesh | okay | 14:49 |
| Jack_Sparrow | utarpradesh, One sec on instructions or if you want .. unmount it and you should be able to wipe it.. | 14:50 |
| ^pipe^ | http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60035/ | 14:50 |
| utarpradesh | i will unmount it; but what does "set disk label" do?? | 14:50 |
| ^cyka^ | and i've ahd this card working on ubuntu before | 14:50 |
| utarpradesh | what is the disk label? | 14:50 |
| DrIP | magnetron: like i said... 2k3 was fine with NAT it was working perfectly... | 14:50 |
| astro76 | utarpradesh: disk label is not too important, but that label will show up with the icon on the desktop when you mount it | 14:50 |
| ^pipe^ | can somebody take a look at that? i've tried to install a deb and got an error... and now i get an error each time i try to install something | 14:50 |
| Jack_Sparrow | utarpradesh, See the last entry http://forum.notebookreview.com/archive/index.php/t-211958.html | 14:50 |
| utarpradesh | thank you so much | 14:51 |
| arkon13 | nobody answers on #alsa :( | 14:51 |
| may | Jack_Sparrow: is there a gui for editing default OS manual? | 14:51 |
| magnetron | DrIP: did you use the same drivers in linux as in win 2k3? | 14:52 |
| DrIP | magnetron: yes, same drivers... just ndiswrapper... | 14:52 |
| bsdnewb07 | guys i have extended limits.conf to allow 2048 descripters to be open for a user, when i run the ircd from the shell it works perfect. but when i run it via a cron job it complains about the restrictions, why dosent limits.conf over rides work in cron jobs? | 14:52 |
| minimec | DrIP: I don't find anything searching 'inprocon wlan0' 'inprocon wifi'... can you pastebin me your lspci? | 14:53 |
| Jack_Sparrow | may http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Gutsy but that is quite generic one sec for more | 14:53 |
| Uatec | hey, can i upgrade from 7.04 to 7.10 or do i have to reinstall? | 14:53 |
| DrIP | minimec: sure... holdon... | 14:53 |
| astro76 | bsdnewb07: did you add the cron job as root or the user? | 14:53 |
| Jack_Sparrow | may sudo apt-get install pastebinit && cat /boot/grub/menu.lst | pastebinit (Provide Pastebin link in channel) | 14:53 |
| RoadHazard | uatec sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 14:53 |
| magnetron | DrIP: ndiswrapper? you'll NEVER get a card working in AP mode with ndiswrapper. you should be amazed you can even use it to surf with. | 14:53 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !upgrade | Uatec | 14:53 |
| ubotu | Uatec: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes | 14:53 |
| DrIP | magnetron: it's worked for my friend before... just a newer reversion of the card... | 14:54 |
| methods | why does my volume buttons only change volume for the system sound card ? | 14:54 |
| DrIP | magnetron: same drivers tho | 14:54 |
| Uatec | woo | 14:54 |
| Uatec | thanks guys | 14:54 |
| pisecx | hi everybody. does anybody use gamepad or joystick? i have bot two gamepads, saitek p990, all is ok, I can play with both. the only question is: some applications allow to set keys configuration, another use some default values. where can I find this values? how can I override them? my gamepad use 2 modes: analog and ... not analog =) both of them working ok, switching (all like in windows, I've testing it). but in windows there is an application to change | 14:54 |
| pisecx | default values. | 14:54 |
| legend2440 | may: startupmanager in synaptic | 14:54 |
| genii | isa_: Please pastebin contents of /proc/mdstat | 14:55 |
| Jack_Sparrow | legend2440, May is looking to edit grub and make windows the default.. | 14:55 |
| DrIP | minimec: http://rafb.net/p/Ct8dlP42.html | 14:55 |
| magnetron | DrIP: get a card with linux drivers. both you and I will have a lot less troubles with one of those. i can recommend the cards with Atheros chipsets. | 14:55 |
| DrIP | magnetron: http://rafb.net/p/Ct8dlP42.html << lspci | 14:55 |
| astro76 | pisecx: not sure if this is what you are after, but joy2key might help | 14:55 |
| pisecx | astro76: thanks, will try | 14:56 |
| isa_ | genii: found something interesting after typing mount -a: http://pastebin.com/m4a488bd6 | 14:56 |
| DrIP | magnetron: believe me, it can happen :) | 14:56 |
| hwilde | where are the daylight savings settings ? | 14:56 |
| genii | isa_: Reading | 14:56 |
| legend2440 | Jack_Sparrow: yes she aked for gui way to do it. startupmanager has gui way to set default os to boot | 14:56 |
| minimec | DrIP: This should be the wifi card.. So it's a Linksys... 05:09.0 Ethernet controller: Linksys, A Division of Cisco Systems WMP11v4 802.11b PCI card | 14:56 |
| isa_ | genii: sees like /dev/sda3 is mounted to /home too ... although its not in /etc/fstab | 14:56 |
| DrIP | minimec: yes | 14:57 |
| magnetron | DrIP: earlier you said that you have an Intel wireless card | 14:57 |
| DrIP | magnetron: intel wired... :/ | 14:58 |
| tutu | how to install gtk ? who can help me? thanks! | 14:58 |
| genii | isa_: Likely it is a component of nvidia_ebeidefj3 | 14:59 |
| brobostigon | tutu: do a search in synaptic. | 14:59 |
| minimec | DrIP: So the card is working, but you cannot switch to master mode? | 14:59 |
| Jack_Sparrow | legend2440, I think of gedit as a gui editor | 14:59 |
| ere4si | !gtk | 14:59 |
| ubotu | GTK is the !GIMP toolkit, which forms the base of !GNOME and is used by many applications to provide a !GUI | 14:59 |
| DrIP | minimec: no.... much more then that.... | 14:59 |
| DrIP | minimec: hi guys... i need help making my server into a wireless gateway from LAN to wireless... any one caring enough to help me? | 15:00 |
| magnetron | DrIP: unless there are proper linux drivers for your card, there's nothing we can do to get it working. good luck. | 15:00 |
| DrIP | magnetron: amenado said it could work... | 15:00 |
| isa_ | genii: yes, its the partition sda3 has the same size as /dev/mapper/nvidia_ebeidefj3 ... nvidia_ebeidefj3 is my /home and if the raid works it has to be on /dev/sda3 and on /dev/sdb3 ... but ubuntu should use nvidia_ebeidefj3 ... otherwise it wouldnt write to the raid ... it would write to the disk directly ... or am i wrong? | 15:00 |
| magnetron | DrIP: who's amenado? | 15:00 |
| === bytecode is now known as byte_code | ||
| DrIP | magnetron: he was helping me out last night | 15:01 |
| byte_code | /msg nickserv link bytecode omni27omni | 15:01 |
| === byte_code is now known as bytecode | ||
| minimec | DrIP: does iwconfig see the card? can you do sudo ifconfig wlan0 102.168.1.10 up ? | 15:01 |
| DrIP | magnetron: and he is also in this chan now... porob. sleeping | 15:01 |
| legend2440 | Jack_Sparrow: ok i reread her question i thought she was asking for gui method to set default os to boot | 15:01 |
| DrIP | minimec: i'm on my wireless now | 15:01 |
| DrIP | minimec: that's where the internet is | 15:01 |
| utarpradesh | okay, so i formatted the sandisk Cruzer using GPARTED... and created a fat32 partition.... | 15:01 |
| utarpradesh | but now | 15:01 |
| utarpradesh | it won't mount | 15:01 |
| Jack_Sparrow | legend2440, not trying to nit pick.. we are both trying to show her ways that will work | 15:02 |
| genii | isa_: Interesting then that it didn't complain about the second component, that being sdb3 | 15:02 |
| ^pipe^ | how can i force to unninstall something with apt-get? | 15:02 |
| isa_ | genii: true ... | 15:02 |
| utarpradesh | it won't mount, giving me a box saying "there is probably no data" | 15:02 |
| minimec | DrIP: ok. So as you are using the card right now, you cannot swich to any mode, because you kill your connection ;) | 15:02 |
| jimqode | ^pipe^, what do you mean by force? | 15:02 |
| utarpradesh | "there is probably no media on the drive" | 15:02 |
| magnetron | DrIP: well as i said, even if it could work there's nothing we could do to help you. unless amenado is writing his own drivers for your card. good luck | 15:02 |
| brobostigon | ^pipe^: sudo apt-get autoremove | 15:02 |

| RequinB1 | murlidhar - i know | 15:12 |
| Jack_Sparrow | murlidhar, did you see the codes on that link | 15:12 |
| RequinB1 | murlidhar - there is an aministrative program in the repos that will do it easily, GUI, post boot | 15:12 |
| legend2440 | Alp1: you using 8.44.3? | 15:12 |

| raucher | My ping to ip x.x.x.x is 50, is there any way to increase it to 100 ? | 15:15 |
| RequinB1 | it is basically a front end for whatever you can do in GUI, if its not available there, i don't know if your card supports it. Can your moniter not take 800x600 ? | 15:15 |
| murlidhar | RequinB1, i have that but there is no option for 1440 X 900 in it. That's why i was asking if anybody knew the vga for this resolution | 15:15 |
| Alp1 | legend2440: seems like some recent hardy updates have broken mesa-utils, but it is not the problem cause it didn't work with Gutsy either | 15:15 |
| hyw | shall I create swap partition first or / ? | 15:16 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Alp1, try #Ubuntu+1 | 15:16 |
| gholimoli | to jack: on the other system (XP) there is no username or password, but i try my ubuntu username and password on the login page(network) but it didn't work. | 15:16 |
| RequinB1 | murlidhar - if Start-up manager won't do it for you, then simply editing the vga won't work. why are you trying to change it in the first place? | 15:16 |

| Jack_Sparrow | utarpradesh, We suggest new users stick with 32 bit until they get a handle on things.. I'll help as I get time | 15:19 |
| raucher | 50ms | 15:19 |
| Jack_Sparrow | laughzilla, there was more to it earlier | 15:19 |
| utarpradesh | what happens if i installed the x86 ubuntu on my x64 laptop?? | 15:19 |
| pax``` | Hello, anyone could suggest a way to add 512 bytes to the beginning of a 40gb file without making an extra 40gb output file?(I don't have enough space to make it) | 15:19 |
| RequinB1 | murlidhar - ok | 15:19 |
| Pici | raucher: lower ping is better than higher ping. | 15:19 |
| utarpradesh | will it destroy my computer? | 15:19 |
| astro76 | raucher: why would you want to increase it? slower ping times are better | 15:19 |
| RequinB1 | murlidhar - what are the options in SUM | 15:19 |
| Polarina | utarpradesh: No. | 15:19 |
| RequinB1 | for resolution | 15:19 |
| Jack_Sparrow | laughzilla, there were several models of the v3x | 15:19 |
| astro76 | raucher: rather faster (smaller) is better ;) | 15:19 |
| torth1 | aks, worked both times you wrote it... it came up in another tab at my end. Thanks | 15:20 |
| raucher | no, in that case, higher is better | 15:20 |
| Polarina | utarpradesh: You can even install a 16-bit operating system without destroying your system. :) | 15:20 |
| aks_ | torth1: I see, thought it was a public msg that it sent | 15:20 |
| utarpradesh | :D | 15:20 |
| astro76 | raucher: ... smaller numbers, faster times | 15:20 |
| raucher | astro76, i want to be slower | 15:20 |
| raucher | :) | 15:20 |
| laughzilla | jack_sparrow ok hang on i see it under thebattery .. there's a sticker on it ... | 15:20 |
| aks_ | I'm trying to install s2ram on edgy | 15:20 |
| astro76 | raucher: that would be rather pointless, any reason? | 15:20 |
| laughzilla | got it .. | 15:20 |
| RequinB1 | murlidhar - try 1280x800, it should work fine, or any other equivalent widescreen resolution | 15:21 |
| Jack_Sparrow | laughzilla, dont make me hurt you | 15:21 |
| raucher | astro76, is it possible without forwarding traffic?:) | 15:21 |
| SupaFly | hi there, im just wondering, how do i go about downloading the internet? | 15:21 |
| RequinB1 | murlidhar - the usplash just needs to fit, doesn't need to be high res, really :P | 15:21 |
| aks_ | has anyone tried uswsusp version 0.8 (the newest) on edgy? | 15:21 |
| Jack_Sparrow | SupaFly, You dont.. what are you trying to accomplish | 15:21 |
| amenado | DrIP i never advised you of using your wireless nic as an AP..so you are saying things wrongly | 15:21 |
| murlidhar | RequinB1, 1280x1024 1600x1200 1024x968 | 15:21 |
| RequinB1 | SupaFly - get a really really big hard drive | 15:21 |
| laughzilla | jack_sparrow ... the Model # is: SA2746A-7335 | 15:21 |
| prince_jammys | wget * | 15:21 |
| Jack_Sparrow | laughzilla, let me see what I can find | 15:22 |
| SupaFly | prince_jammys ah ok ty | 15:22 |
| prince_jammys | hehe | 15:22 |
| astro76 | raucher: I'm not aware of anything | 15:22 |
| wirrwarr | heya~ | 15:22 |
| prince_jammys | SupaFly: don't | 15:22 |
| RequinB1 | murlidhar - try 1280x1024 | 15:22 |
| murlidhar | RequinB1, due to widescreen monitor 1280x1024 looks too small. and text is not legible. | 15:22 |
| SupaFly | sorry why not? | 15:22 |
| raucher | astro76, yeah, thats why many questions ;) | 15:22 |
| laughzilla | Model: V3c | 15:22 |
| DrIP | heya amenado | 15:23 |
| Grummler | hi | 15:23 |
| amenado | DrIP hey are for horses | 15:23 |
| laughzilla | jack_sparrow V3c and that model number are what i have. i'm lookign in the gui prefs | 15:23 |
| DrIP | ahh, sorry, i thought that's what you were trying to do :eep: | 15:23 |
| SupaFly | well i have a 80gb HD, so i figure that should be enough to get most of the internet dl, can i use a torrent program to dl it instead? just so i can dl the other half later on | 15:23 |
| Polarina | SupaFly: You don't want to waste money on purchasing storage devices for many thousands petabyte of data. | 15:23 |
| RequinB1 | murlidhar - well, as we are messing around with the boot sequence and its just for prettiness, i'd say guess and check which resolution is best for you. If you want a resolution OUTSIDE that, you'll need new video card/bios | 15:23 |
| prince_jammys | SupaFly: yeah, 80gigs should do | 15:24 |
| RequinB1 | murlidhar - what is wrong with the default 800x600 | 15:24 |
| Pici | prince_jammys: dont feed the trolls | 15:24 |
| prince_jammys | Pici: sorry | 15:24 |
| DrIP | amenado: well, now... what time is it, where you live... | 15:24 |
| murlidhar | RequinB1, actually my desktop is running on 1440 so i thought i might be able to set usplash to that too . So i guess my video card supports this resolution. | 15:25 |

| Renski | apt-search or something? | 15:32 |
| aks__ | any ideas how to get s2ram working in edgy? | 15:32 |
| Corvineum | RequinB1, one is a mov and two are wmv | 15:33 |
| amenado | VisagaliS-> have you dig through /proc and find that settings? or maybe using sysctl ? | 15:33 |
| RequinB1 | Renski - what is wrong with synaptic | 15:33 |
| Renski | nothing I suppose | 15:34 |
| Renski | I just cant find the package im looking for | 15:34 |
| Renski | vmware-player | 15:34 |
| VisagaliS | so ubuntu have 1024 limit or not? | 15:34 |
| smacky | last i check synapic worked fine | 15:34 |
| RequinB1 | renski - use add remove, its easier | 15:34 |
| genii | isa_: Sorry for lag, work called me away for a while there. Do you have only a /dev/mapper/nvidia ? | 15:34 |
| Jack_Sparrow | laughzilla, You have exhausted my knowledge on the subject and the wife is now up requiring my attentions... good luck.. bbl | 15:34 |
| Corvineum | RequinB1, the audi works fine, however, the video is not rendered correctly with the mov file, while with the wmv i have glitches when scrolling on the location of the player | 15:35 |

| RequinB1 | Corvineum - ok, i was about to say vlc should do it fine - I could be wrong, but i've had that problem before so i think its a lack of feature more then a bug - its hard for an open source app to perfectly do non-free file types | 15:36 |
| Renski | is there even a package named vmware-player? | 15:36 |
| RequinB1 | Renski - what program are you trying to install | 15:36 |
| Renski | vmware player | 15:36 |
| smacky | could it be a bad video file ..just a idea | 15:36 |
| RequinB1 | Rensky - search vmware | 15:37 |

| Corvineum | RequinB1, oh ok. any recommendation? i've tried vlc,totem, and mplayer | 15:37 |

| RequinB1 | Corvineum - Probably the wrong person to ask for that. I CAN tell you how to convert it into a freindly file type though | 15:37 |
| amenado | DrIP how did your cl1 gets its ip address? the gateway it has set? | 15:38 |
| laughzilla | legend2440 - i read that page ... it tells me i have to BUY the motorola tools to be able to set the phone to be able to transfer files to my computer ?!?! | 15:38 |

| Corvineum | RequinB1, that's alright. thanks for your time! | 15:38 |

| balle | i need help viewing videos on youtube, how do i eneable that? | 15:38 |
| laughzilla | that's odd ... i naively thought the whole purpose of installing the software via that ubuntu site was to connect to the phone was so that i wouldn't have to buy the software. oh well ... | 15:39 |

| DrIP | amenado: i really don't care :-) anything that works... | 15:39 |
| laughzilla | by "Set up your phone " ... don't they mean i have to install the software they sell ? | 15:39 |
| murlidhar | nikitis, perhaps there is some problem in the server. | 15:39 |
| nikitis | murlidhar, i have the package downloaded locally | 15:39 |
| Renski | Add/Remove gives me "VMware Player cannot be installed on your computer type (i386)" | 15:40 |
| RequinB1 | balle - install flash | 15:40 |
| nikitis | murlidhar, and I've tried on two different networks, on 3 different computers | 15:40 |
| smacky | there is your answer | 15:40 |
| twisties | السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاثه | 15:40 |
| RequinB1 | balle - its fixed, so ff2 should have a toolbar up top saying click here to install plugin | 15:40 |
| Renski | does this mean I have to install the 586 arch ubuntu? | 15:40 |
| amenado | DrIP-> you have to understand the concepts of networking, its not like just oh throw it up in the air and hopefully it hit something..you have to have the understanding if you wish to accomplish your goal of using the ubuntu as gateway/router | 15:40 |
| hyw | I reinstalled ubuntu and now I get grub error 17? | 15:40 |
| legend2440 | laughzilla: i don't think so i think these are changes to settings you make by scrolling menus on phone itself | 15:40 |
| sinan | anyone can help me with my "login screen" resolution problem? | 15:40 |
| twisties | anybody here good with linux<->windows file transfer? | 15:40 |
| laughzilla | legend2440 ... there is no USB choice in the phone's Settings menu, i think that's only available for $$$. | 15:41 |

| amenado | DrIP it will take me much longer to explain to you what a router does if you have not studied it..you have so many router or acting as router on your network, you have to learn that first | 15:42 |
| VisagaliS | from my knowledge i know that ubuntu have socket cap limit 1024 if you don't change it while configure, what i --Setting=value i need to use to increase that 1024 limit? | 15:42 |

| DG19075 | sinan: do this to chanege your login screen: sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 15:42 |
| minimec | DrIP: amenado is right, but your case is quiet easy. take eth0 192.168.1.101 (or so) and wlan0 192.168.1.102 and gateway 192.168.1.101. | 15:42 |

| laughzilla | anyway thanks all ... ciao for now :) if i get this done i'll paste here and online how i did it. | 15:43 |
| DG19075 | you'll see a list of screen resolutions. Delete the ones yo don't want or won't work with your monitor. | 15:43 |
| murlidhar | nikitis, if you already have the package locally then just double click on it/ | 15:43 |
| EspadaV8_W | is there any way to do this? | 15:43 |
| amenado | minimec-> its not as simple as that, as he has another router on the lan side of his ubuntu/gateway | 15:44 |
| smacky | should'nt your gateway be like 255.255.255 ???????? at lease it is on my routers | 15:44 |
| EspadaV8_W | i've installed scsiadd and scsitools | 15:44 |
| murlidhar | nikitis, it will install by itself. | 15:44 |
| nikitis | murlidhar, i did, but then it starts and then takes forever | 15:44 |
| EspadaV8_W | but they don't seem to see the new HD | 15:44 |
| DrIP | amenado: how may i go about doing what minimec said, change my gateway ip config in my cls? or add a 'gateway protocal' to my ubuntu? | 15:44 |
| skillz | i also have compiz fusion running, and that seems to screw up 2.. for no reason.. | 15:44 |
| murlidhar | nikitis, perhaps it is dowloading some dependencies? | 15:44 |
| amenado | DrIP I prefer you read up a lil bit more about what a router does, how client use it to get to a destination.. | 15:44 |
| nikitis | murlidhar, i think that the .deb file though still tries to download from fpdownload.macromedia.com | 15:44 |
| murlidhar | nikitis, perhaps it is dowloading some dependencies | 15:45 |

| ionstorm | what ver | 15:54 |
| hwilde | pro-rsoft, I use xmms it works nice | 15:54 |
| joshness | hi | 15:54 |
| pro-rsoft | hwilde, thanks | 15:54 |
| amenado | ionstorm the latest version, i believe is 3rd | 15:54 |
| Vladimir | installing xubuntu for the first time on t30 notebook, but now stopped at 'installed update-notifier' and nothing happens, any clues? | 15:54 |
| pro-rsoft | is it called xmms-console or so? | 15:54 |
| joshness | i installed xubuntu using wubi but the hd size is set to 10gb and i need more... can i add more gb without reinstalling? | 15:55 |
| joshness | or maybe install it to a hdd? | 15:55 |
| amenado | Vladimir-> are you in the process of installing it now? | 15:55 |
| Vladimir | amenado: yes | 15:55 |
| amenado | Vladimir and this is around the 83% mark of status? | 15:56 |

| Vladimir | amenado: yes, ? ;-) | 15:56 |
| legend2440 | pro-rsoft: its xmms in synaptic | 15:56 |
| amenado | Vladimir what it is doing is, attempting to connect to an internet site, so if your system cant get to the internet, it just attempts there for a while and eventually moves on | 15:57 |
| MadMethod | pike_: ta | 15:57 |
| amenado | but it waits for a few, maybe 10 mins | 15:57 |
| hwilde | pro-rsoft, xmmsctrl will control it from the command line | 15:57 |

| amenado | Vladimir okay, good..now once you got an internet access, things can be downloaded to update | 15:58 |
| pro-rsoft | hwilde, just also found xmms-shell :) | 15:58 |
| murlidhar | and what is the diff between AGP and pci video card? | 15:58 |

| ionstorm | sec lookin for it | 15:59 |
| ionstorm | lol | 15:59 |
| Gumby | murlidhar: a lot. agp and pci are two different slot interfaces | 15:59 |
| amenado | ionstorm-> i believe it is | 15:59 |
| Intrepd | murlidhar: theres a bunch of differences, try to use PCIe if you can, then AGP, then lastly PCI | 15:59 |
| amenado | ionstorm ooops not network, just plain system administration | 16:00 |
| Gumby | murlidhar: PCI-E is the most recent slot technology, then AGP, then PCI. | 16:00 |
| jeffMASTERflex | murlidhar: using a pci video card is like using an 8 track player. it's nice, it plays your music, but you can't play cd's on it | 16:00 |
| murlidhar | Intrepd, does pcie fits in pci slot. cuz my machine is of 2003 | 16:00 |
| amenado | murlidhar and within AGP you have 2x 4x 8x..lol | 16:00 |
| Gumby | murlidhar: none of those slots are compatible with eachother | 16:01 |
| minimec | murlidhar: no pci express is different | 16:01 |
| murlidhar | ok | 16:01 |
| _2 | wherefore is usb no more working correctly when i updated my kernel ? http://ubuntu.pastebin.us/?show=d20dd1db4 lsusb doesn't see disk but i can mount sda manually only change was the kernel update. still works if i boot the older kernel ??? | 16:01 |
| Gumby | murlidhar: if your machine is 2003 ir probably has AGP. Unless it is a low end OEM board with onboard AGP then it might not. | 16:01 |
| aurax | how can i set mtu 9000 on dhcp configured interface? | 16:01 |
| Gumby | aurax: the bigger question is why are you messing with mtu? | 16:02 |

| murlidhar | sorry for my english | 16:02 |

| _2 | MrKeuner maybe unplug and replug it ? | 16:03 |
| MrKeuner | _2: that would work but I am away from the machine | 16:04 |
| mynyml | if a laptop's wireless card doesn't allow as much distance with ubuntu as it doesnt with windows, where should i look for the problem? the driver? | 16:04 |
| _2 | MrKeuner then idk | 16:04 |
| murlidhar | Gumby, u were right . i have only one slot. | 16:04 |
| amenado | MrKeuner-> get next to the machine? heheh | 16:04 |

| bsdnewb07 | guys i have extended limits.conf to allow 2048 descripters to be open for a user, when i run the ircd from the shell it works perfect. but when i run it via a cron job it complains about the restrictions, why dosent limits.conf over rides work in cron jobs? | 16:05 |
| MrKeuner | _2: will try that | 16:05 |
| minimec | mynyml: Driver or the network-manager. Try wifi-radar once and see if the connection is more stable. There is a network-manager replacement (don't remember the name) | 16:05 |
| Gumby | murlidhar: go with an nvidia AGP. whatever you can afford. Their drivers for linux are much better than ATI. ATI and nvidia are the only two real choices if you want something decent | 16:05 |
| amenado | minimec-> wicd | 16:05 |

| murlidhar | my older AGP card burnt it's fan and it doesn;t work. i am afraid if it damaged my slot. | 16:06 |

| murlidhar | Gumby, ^ | 16:07 |

| === Kopfgeldjaeger is now known as Off | ||
| === Off is now known as Off|Tuhpik | ||
| murlidhar | i don't know anybody using AGP. | 16:07 |
| Gumby | murlidhar: usually a PC will shut down before any damage is done. Find a good price on a card (do some shopping online) and then buy one. If the slot doesnt work, then just sell the card on ebay. Alternately, if you have a big box store near you that sells PC components, they ofter have good return policies. Just buy one there and if itdoesnt work return it and tell them it was not compatible with your motherboard. | 16:08 |
| Gumby | murlidhar: its not that uncommon for video card fans to die. | 16:08 |
| Gumby | murlidhar: A lot of people still use AGP. | 16:08 |

| murlidhar | Gumby, according to my bios setting AGP aperture size is 64mb . Primary Video Adapter is AGP . Frame buffer size is 1mb. This setting is even after taking out the AGP card. Do i have to configure it again. | 16:13 |
| ^lam64^ | hi murlidhar | 16:13 |
| mad_max02 | murlidhar, do you know what agp aperture size is ?? | 16:13 |
| _2 | bsdnewb07 because pam is not used for the cron job only on login shells | 16:13 |

| DrIP | amenado: NAT - Network Address Translators - A device used to disguise internal IP Addresses and ports by assigning fake IP numbers and port numbers to all packets leaving the network | 16:22 |
| DRebellion | leroy, "overloaded"? What exactly happens? Any errors? | 16:23 |
| Breth | I'll try safe mode | 16:23 |
| leroy | no response, hard reset | 16:23 |
| leroy | for example, copied one 700Mb file to other machine and it hung up | 16:23 |
| _2 | Breth that normally occures when the kernel can't find/mount the root fs. | 16:23 |
| Breth | Hmm | 16:23 |
| _2 | Breth and if that's the case safe mode wont help. | 16:23 |
| leroy | same thing happens with azureus | 16:23 |
| _2 | but by all means try it and confirm. | 16:24 |
| DRebellion | DrIP, amenado, 0_o . NATs are used to get more than one internal ip for a network to work off one external. Not for "disguising" and "spoofing". | 16:24 |

| DrIP | DRebellion: it was a quoted def from a book | 16:25 |
| Breth | Still got the busybox thingie | 16:25 |
| DRebellion | alanbshepard70, happened to me once. i logged in and out and was fixed. | 16:25 |
| skillz | Drebellion, yeh so i guess i will hope that Adobe do flash for unix | 16:25 |
| _2 | Breth yeah it's not booting. | 16:25 |
| Breth | Might it have to do with the fact that I didn't erase the hard disk? (Still has windows on it, I think) | 16:25 |
| DrIP | DRebellion: i was kinda making a joke out of it... | 16:25 |
| DRebellion | skillz, they have (flashplugin-nonfree) but its still binary only | 16:25 |
| _2 | Breth nope | 16:25 |

| ubotu | An open source flash replacement. It is still beta software. For current status or for more info http://www.gnu.org/software/gnash/ | 16:26 |
| DRebellion | Breth, nope | 16:26 |
| soundray | leroy: first thing to check is your RAM -- choose the memtest86 option from the boot menu | 16:26 |
| Breth | Okey | 16:26 |
| DRebellion | seisen, bah, gnash is buggy and slow | 16:26 |
| skillz | ubuto: ok thanks | 16:26 |
| skillz | will have a look | 16:26 |
| alanbshepard70 | DRebellion: It happens to me every time but it's no biggie I just wanted to make sure I'm not the only one it has happened to. | 16:26 |
| leroy | ok soundray anything else? | 16:26 |
| Breth | Checking it now | 16:26 |
| Breth | thanks | 16:26 |
| seisen | it depends on what version the latest version is not near as bad as flash plugin from adobe | 16:26 |
| bsdnewb07 | <_2> bsdnewb07 because pam is not used for the cron job only on login shells | 16:26 |
| _2 | Breth more likely a bad disk but possably very odd hardware setup that the live CD can't find itself in. | 16:26 |
| bsdnewb07 | but there is a file called /etc/pam.d/cron | 16:27 |
| soundray | leroy: when it freezes, don't do a hard reset. Try the MagicSysRq sequence: hold Ctrl-Shift-PrintScreen, then hit R E I S U B in succession | 16:27 |
| Breth | The hardware is very very very old | 16:27 |
| Breth | Haven't used it in years | 16:27 |
| alanbshepard70 | One last question (for now) when I open a folder and select a file sometimes the file jumps to a new spot in the folder as if now that I've made the computer aware of the file it re-sorts the directory. Anyone else have this happen? | 16:27 |

| leroy | hmm reisub? what does that do? | 16:28 |
| Aw0L | so, no kernel upgrade | 16:28 |
| Breth | Oh, I misread | 16:28 |
| DRebellion | u007-1, i believe so | 16:29 |
| Breth | I'm running the memtest | 16:29 |

| u007-1 | Drebellion, can i use dnat and prerouting? i can't seems to get it working | 16:29 |
| pike_ | Breth: an explosion of badness | 16:29 |
| _2 | Breth you say the hardware is old do you have enough ram to run the install cd ? | 16:29 |
| smacky | make it to where I have one big hard drive until payday lmao | 16:29 |
| DRebellion | u007-1, i haven't done it personally, but i think that iptables does that sort of stuff | 16:30 |
| u007-1 | Drebellion - okay, thanks :) | 16:30 |
| DRebellion | smacky, okay, first get yourself a good soldering iron... | 16:30 |
| smacky | lmao | 16:30 |
| smacky | then a ebook i would guess | 16:31 |
| soundray | leroy: unmounts your filesystems and reboots safely. Search the web for magic sysrq | 16:31 |
| _2 | Breth ubuntu installer is a ram hog you can run an installed ubuntu in less than 32m but you need like upwards 256m to use the latest live | 16:31 |
| leroy | ahh thank you soundray :) | 16:31 |
| Breth | _2: I just checked... I don't have enough ram: only 64... | 16:31 |
| * Breth is a noob | 16:31 | |
| leroy | so if the ram loops ok, is there anything i should look out for? | 16:31 |
| pike_ | Breth: even on an ok lappy 256mb ram 1.4ghz proc i use the alternate install cd | 16:31 |
| alsadk | i have an ADSL some webs appear & some late but i close the tab any suggestions ? and when using update-manager i got nothing to update but i am sure there is a lot to update | 16:31 |
| Breth | Ok, I'll download that | 16:31 |
| Breth | thanks for the help | 16:32 |
| _2 | Breth no 64m won't do for that type install. if you can barrow enough to install you can run in that tho. | 16:32 |
| soundray | leroy: overheating -- are all your fans running? | 16:32 |
| leroy | yes | 16:32 |
| soundray | leroy: did you overclock? | 16:32 |
| leroy | no overclocking on this one | 16:32 |
| pike_ | Breth: also to add to what _2 said consider the xubuntu alt install cd instead of ubuntu with that much ram | 16:32 |
| smacky | hey soundray how you been ? | 16:32 |
| minimec | leroy: cpu Fan? | 16:32 |
| soundray | smacky: fine thanks. Who are you :) | 16:33 |
| leroy | is running of course! | 16:33 |
| Breth | Hmm so xubuntu | 16:33 |
| Splex | where can i find a previous version of a package for hardy? | 16:33 |
| Splex | i want to downgrade one version | 16:33 |
| Splex | of a certain package | 16:33 |
| Breth | Downloading alternate xubuntu install | 16:34 |
| soundray | Splex: you can try the gutsy package, but it can cause all kinds of problems. Any more hardy questions, ask in #ubuntu+1 please | 16:34 |
| pike_ | Breth: g'luck | 16:34 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Splex, are you running Hardy or Gutsy | 16:34 |
| Breth | Thanks :) | 16:34 |
| Splex | Jack_Sparrow: Hardy | 16:34 |
| _2 | Breth xubuntu is by default a lighter system than ubuntu or kubuntu but an old linux hand can make light what ubuntu has made heavy. | 16:34 |

| Breth | Yeah I know | 16:38 |
| bod_ | Jalumlinux_, i apologize for the earlier post,. it wasnt meant for you | 16:38 |
| Jack_Sparrow | _2, 2 gig usb? | 16:38 |
| Jalumlinux_ | bod_ k | 16:38 |
| murlidhar | so quiet | 16:38 |
| bod_ | gregory_, try this sudo apt-get install acl-dbgsym | 16:38 |
| jdkarns | I have 2 Sata Hard Drives and I installed Ubuntu on one drive. Now I cant load Vista...theres more | 16:38 |
| soundray | MindSpark: if you have the firefox-gnome-support package, the font size will follow the settings in System-Preferences-Appearance-Fonts | 16:39 |
| bod_ | jdkarns, that sounds like a perk to me | 16:39 |
| bod_ | ;~) | 16:39 |
| gregory_ | my previus link to the paste covers a script, which _tries_ to install the dbgsym package for every package which is installed on the system. However when it mets the first entry of the list, which has no corresponding *-dbg package, it seems to hang. i am not sure what is going wrong here | 16:39 |
| arkon13 | how do i connect to this channel through pidgin? :) | 16:39 |
| MindSpark | soundray, alright, thanks | 16:39 |

| arkon13 | how do i connect to this channel through pidgin? :) | 16:39 |
| gregory_ | bod_: yes i know, the problem is that acl-dbgsym does not exist | 16:39 |
| alsadk | i have an ADSL some webs appear & some late but i close the tab any suggestions ? and when using update-manager i got nothing to update but i am sure there is a lot to update | 16:39 |
| Jack_Sparrow | arkon13, You can do it with pidgin, but xchat , konversation or irissi would be better choices | 16:40 |
| jdkarns | I am using the grub bootloader and i am trying to configure the menu.lst to boot vista...I know vista sucks but i have business software on there. hehe | 16:40 |
| === Agent_bob is now known as _2 | ||
| suicidepills | arkon, just type /join #ubuntu in the freenode-connect window | 16:40 |
| DRebellion | arkon13, seriously, you don't want to use pidgin for irc | 16:40 |
| arkon13 | thanks | 16:40 |
| arkon13 | :) | 16:40 |
| suicidepills | it sounds like he does, man ;) | 16:40 |
| bod_ | gregory_, oh its a bash question,., well first why #/bin/bash not #!/bin/bash ? | 16:40 |
| _2 | sorry if anyone answered me, i had to reconnect and missed it. http://ubuntu.pastebin.us/?show=d48c4fdbc | 16:40 |
| Jack_Sparrow | _2, 2 gig usb? | 16:41 |
| _2 | Jack_Sparrow yes | 16:41 |
| jdkarns | I dont understand he configuration of the drives like what is hd0, 0 | 16:41 |
| soundray | jdkarns: there is a sample boot section for Windows in menu.lst, starting at line 13. Just move to the end and uncomment. | 16:41 |
| Jack_Sparrow | _2, So it probably was locked down by windows and will need to be force mounted.. assuming ntfs or fat | 16:41 |
| gregory_ | bod_: thanks, changed, same result still | 16:42 |
| richard__ | does someone know how to set multiple conky to launch at once? | 16:42 |
| Jack_Sparrow | jdkarns, 0,0 is first partition on the first drive | 16:42 |
| soundray | jdkarns: don't forget the parenthesis. (hd0,0) is the first partition on the first disk -- Linux would call it /dev/hda1 or /dev/sda1 | 16:42 |
| jdkarns | Ok i will try to look for the commented windows section...thanks | 16:42 |
| richard__ | if i want to launch several conky, and with diffrent configuration files, how do i do that? i tried this now. .conkyrc http://paste.stgraber.org/1685 | 16:42 |
| neopsyche | how do i setup wireless AP on ubuntu?" | 16:42 |

| suicidepills | Does anyone know how to get Rhythmbox to work with Xine? | 16:42 |
| gregory_ | bod_: #bash people sent me here.. | 16:42 |
| bod_ | gregory_, im not an expert at bash im afraid,. someone in here might be able to help or the bash guys #bash | 16:42 |
| Jack_Sparrow | _2, It can also happen if improperly removed without unmounting | 16:42 |
| neopsyche | my card is.. Atheros Communications, Inc. | 16:43 |
| jeffMASTERflex | suicidepills: i think RB only works with gstreamer | 16:43 |
| _2 | Jack_Sparrow lsusb not seeing it at all ? | 16:43 |
| jdkarns | Thank you very much soundray .. i will try some of those things and be back..Thanks | 16:43 |
| suicidepills | there's no way to tell RB to use xine? | 16:43 |
| neopsyche | Jack_Sparrow, can you help me setup wireless AP in ubuntu? | 16:43 |
| _2 | Jack_Sparrow but it's not that anyway. | 16:43 |
| gregory_ | bod_: you also think its an bash error? | 16:43 |
| jeffMASTERflex | suicidepills: i've heard of there being a RB-xine library that allows this, but I've never used it and only seen it in RPM based distros | 16:44 |
| Jack_Sparrow | neopsyche, no sorry | 16:44 |
| bod_ | gregory_, lol,. ok,.,. ask in here,. but i dont think its a bash error,. i think they no more about the syntax and stuff then i do,.,. someone here can prob help | 16:44 |
| _2 | Jack_Sparrow anything else ? | 16:44 |
| bod_ | how can i write a tick in openoffice? | 16:44 |
| soundray | gregory_: I don't think your $(...) construct is right | 16:44 |
| LjL | gregory_, why is the "do" part inside $()? | 16:45 |
| suicidepills | well, is it alright to have both Gstreamer and xine installed? I want to use VLC with xine to play back video and gstreamer for audio | 16:45 |
| _2 | bod a tick ? this "`" ? | 16:45 |
| jdkarns | is the First partition on the Second Drive like this? (hd0, 1) i have 2 sata drives | 16:45 |

| _2 | bod_ or this "'" ? | 16:45 |
| suicidepills | is there a general way to tell an app to use one or the other? | 16:45 |
| bod_ | _2, no a tick as in a tick or cross | 16:45 |
| suicidepills | or do they have that built into them? | 16:46 |

| jeffMASTERflex | suicidepills: usually they only support one or the other, other times they might depend on a library that enables this | 16:46 |
| _2 | bod_ hmmm never heard it called that before. sorry. | 16:46 |
| LjL | suicidepills: you can generally tell them, but how depends on the app... on VLC, i think you may need to check "Advanced options" in the preferences to see those | 16:46 |
| LjL | suicidepills: besides though VLC... VLC is generally used with its own decoders | 16:46 |
| jeffMASTERflex | suicidepills: there aren't many apps that support both, i advise just sticking to one engine per application | 16:46 |
| bod_ | _2, you know when you were at school and you were doing a spelling test, ur teacher would mark it by putting a tick or cross for if it was correct or incorrect respectively | 16:47 |
| jeffMASTERflex | suicidepills: LjL is right. VLC uses it's own engine | 16:47 |

| DRebellion | bod_, *shrug* i looked on some forum off google | 16:50 |

| _2 | Jack_Sparrow it's not ntfs | 16:52 |

| _2 | Jack_Sparrow it's ext2 | 16:52 |
| LjL | gregory_: well then leave out the "exit 1" and let the script go on anyway even if some packages don't exist? | 16:53 |

| jeffMASTERflex | crashhandler: unfortunately, swiftfox is a proprietary browser, so if you need any help choosing the right version, you should ask on their forum | 16:55 |
| _2 | DRebellion thoughts ? | 16:56 |

| _2 | Jack_Sparrow yeah you missed it. it's already mounted. the pastebin shows that. but lsusb isn't seeing it and so it's not automounted at boot time. not with the new kenrel. it is with the older kernel. | 17:01 |
| laughzilla | minimec - correct | 17:01 |
| TheStorey | i have a question about making to so that when i boot up my ubuntu machine it goes to the terminal and i log in there and if i wish to startx then i have to type it in | 17:01 |
| laughzilla | do you know how to make it do that ? | 17:01 |
| vignesh | how do i transfer entire folders by ftp or by ssh?? | 17:01 |
| minimec | laughzilla: And you have no option in your phone? Strange... | 17:02 |

| alsadk | i have an ADSL some webs appear & some late but i close the tab any suggestions ? and when using update-manager i got nothing to update but i am sure there is a lot to update | 17:02 |
| DRebellion | vignesh, ssh? use scp (secure cp) | 17:02 |
| laughzilla | minimec - yah. | 17:02 |
| TheStorey | you guys should take support answers to a private chat | 17:02 |
| vignesh | DRebellion, can i copy entire folder using that? | 17:02 |
| _2 | Jack_Sparrow i don't have to -f force anything. its like the usb-storage module was missing or something... but it's inserted. | 17:02 |
| DRebellion | vignesh, yep | 17:02 |
| gligorhoria | vignesh from what? | 17:02 |
| xq | TheStorey: You just asked a support question? | 17:02 |

| vignesh | DRebellion, y? | 17:03 |
| Jack_Sparrow | _2, wish you luck.. time for some aspirin and rest... | 17:03 |
| MoonCrow | I am new to Linux and want a dual boot machine (one OS per drive) with Ubuntu and Vista...is this difficult? | 17:03 |
| minimec | laughzilla: I can't help you I guess, because I have a Motorola A780 (linux) and mine is swiching directly modes... | 17:03 |
| DRebellion | vignesh, i don't know the syntax. check out the manpage (man scp) | 17:03 |
| _2 | Jack_Sparrow thanks for the effort. | 17:03 |
| vignesh | DRebellion, oh ya.. ty.. | 17:03 |

| Crusader_Tech | Hello Everyone. It's me, again, working on that move from Windows to Linux. This time it's a wine question. I've got a few windows only apps I'm interested in trying to run. Perhaps I'm doing something wrong, but on the two machines I've tried, Wine is VERY slow. | 17:03 |
| Jack_Sparrow | MoonCrow, I find it easier to keep both os on one drive and the spare drive for storage. for both os's | 17:04 |
| laughzilla | well gotta go pick up a washing machine ... ciao for now and thanks :) | 17:04 |
| minimec | laughzilla: I needed some tools for a firmware upgrade. I did that with a wmware image. | 17:04 |
| DRebellion | Crusader_Tech, that's normal | 17:04 |
| vignesh | gligorhoria, can i use filezilla? | 17:04 |
| TheStorey | i have a question about making to so that when i boot up my ubuntu machine it goes to the terminal and i log in there and if i wish to startx then i have to type it in | 17:04 |

| gligorhoria | vignesh i-m not that advanced, sorry, i use scp wich any way i think it is better, if u can ssh to the server then scp should work out of the box (they come in the same package) | 17:05 |
| MoonCrow | Thanks for the help, guys... | 17:05 |
| TheStorey | then fucking say no me | 17:05 |
| DRebellion | Crusader_Tech, people use programs like cedega to run WoW which are specifically optimised for certain games. | 17:05 |
| jeffMASTERflex | TheStorey: you need to change your init runlevel | 17:05 |

| Crusader_Tech | DRebellion: Ah. That would make some sense. It seems I install the software ok, but when I try to run it, my processor just starts cranking, and.........nothing else really happens. So I tried to run the "preinstalled" notepad, and man it took forever. | 17:06 |
| genii | Thanks Pici | 17:06 |
| jeffMASTERflex | vignesh: you can also do it from nautilus by right clicking, selecting properties, then permissions | 17:07 |

| AJC_Z0 | What's a good free MS Project viewer? I only seem to be able to find commercial offerings | 17:08 |
| alsadk | how to trace a site ? | 17:08 |
| anacron10 | hi guys | 17:09 |
| jdkarns | I installed Ubuntu on a separate and all the tutorials talk about installation on one hard drive and re partitioning...my problem is that vista is on one hard drive and after Ubuntu installation Vista wont boot | 17:09 |
| xq | Pici: Okay, I just asked him to stop flooding respectfully and he started a heated exchange of words and I said nothing back. | 17:09 |
| DRebellion | alsadk, what sort of trace? traceroute? | 17:09 |
| Pici | xq: yah, I see that now. | 17:09 |
| mohamed11 | + | 17:09 |
| jdkarns | Separate hard drive that is lol | 17:09 |
| Cpudan80 | jdkarns: what does vista say? | 17:09 |
| RoAkSoAx | hi, is there any repository to test softwarE? | 17:09 |
| anacron10 | someone knows which protocol ubuntu use to share files on a network? | 17:09 |
| gligorhoria | i can-t find it | 17:09 |
| _2 | DRebellion you think it's safe for him to chmod -R 700 /blah without knowing what is in there ? you like executing html files ? | 17:09 |
| jdkarns | Cpudan86 how do i chat in red to u? | 17:09 |
| soundray | gregory_: I can't quite work out why mine doesn't work. But you can probably dissect it and separate the steps: create a list of installed packages, then check the available packages for -dbg versions of those. Then call apt-get install on this list (ideally call apt-get only once for efficiency) | 17:09 |
| DRebellion | anacron10, many protocols. Samba is good for windoze interaction. | 17:09 |
| Cpudan80 | anacron10: NFS IIRC | 17:09 |
| jdkarns | instead of in main chat | 17:10 |
| Cpudan80 | NFS is the Unix one --- SMB is the windows one | 17:10 |
| DRebellion | _2, i assume he knows whats in there | 17:10 |
| jeffMASTERflex | RoAkSoAx: you can test any of the software in the repositories | 17:10 |
| gligorhoria | vignesh, any way try apt-get scp and see if it dispays on the menu, the interface is realy treigh forword, self explenotory | 17:10 |
| brobostigon | jdkarns: i think you may need to edit grub to reference to your 2nd hdd, | 17:10 |
| _2 | DRebellion big assumption | 17:10 |
| gligorhoria | the files will be shown as in windows - explorerr | 17:10 |
| Cpudan80 | jdkarns: Stick my name at the front of your message | 17:10 |
| Cpudan80 | !tab | jdkarns | 17:10 |
| ubotu | jdkarns: You can use <tab> for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. | 17:10 |
| RoAkSoAx | jeffMASTERflex: i meant, testing repositories, of software that has not been debugged or accepted in the multiverse or something like that | 17:11 |
| _2 | DRebellion i'll go out on a limb and assume it's a windows drive and chmod can't affect anything.... ;/ | 17:11 |
| anacron10 | DRebellion: if I have to choose a cross-platform protocol to share files, do you suggest me samba??? | 17:11 |
| jdkarns | ubotu, thank you | 17:11 |
| ubotu | You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-) | 17:11 |
| DRebellion | anacron10, yep, | 17:11 |
| anacron10 | thanks a lot | 17:11 |
| ikonia | anacron10: samba is probably the best option. | 17:11 |
| vignesh | gligorhoria, hey thanks.. i was able to do it with filezilla anyways.. ill try scp next time.. :) | 17:11 |
| jeffMASTERflex | RoAkSoAx: not really. there are some, but you have to look around. you can use getdeb if you'd like for newer software | 17:11 |
| flipmode | every time i open a terminal i get no text just a blank screen ubuntu 7.10 | 17:11 |
| gligorhoria | vignesh what ever works for u | 17:11 |

| alsadk | <DRebellion> yes traceroute | 17:12 |
| DRebellion | alsadk, traceroute <host> | 17:12 |
| ikonia | u007-2: 192.168 addresses are non-routable | 17:12 |
| soundray | jdkarns: on which disk do you have Windows and Ubuntu respectively? | 17:12 |
| gregory_ | soundray: yes, i have a working version now, i have diff checked the package list. there are the same from your version and mine, so my version shouldnt install all packages. new version here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60049/ thanks a lot for your help! | 17:12 |
| genii | alsadk: If traceroute doesn't work try tracepath | 17:12 |
| u007-2 | ikonia - i don't get it.. why? | 17:13 |
| jdkarns | Cpudan80, I tried running Bootrec.exe /RebuildBcd and it finds the windows partition. Then it says do you want to do it Y N or all and then i answer Y and it says Element not found | 17:13 |
| ikonia | u007-2 because it's a private address range. | 17:13 |
| gligorhoria | is it safe to CONFIG_HZ to 50 on the kernell, and would that make the pings on the server? | 17:13 |
| j0 | on ubuntu 6 server, samba has a 2gb file limit when accessing it from windows. the mount is ext3.. any ideas? | 17:13 |
| jdkarns | soundray, i think ubuntu is disk 1 and vista is 2 | 17:13 |
| Cpudan80 | jdkarns: that's a windows issue then - join ##windows | 17:13 |
| ikonia | gligorhoria: can you expect on that | 17:13 |
| u007-2 | ikonia - how should i do a vnc port fwd to another pc? | 17:13 |
| soundray | gregory_: good... this still calls apt-get once for every hit, but if you're patient, it doesn't matter... | 17:13 |
| vignesh | i have nearly 5 gb to be transferred thru ftp.. is it possible to do without making a duplicate copy of the files..?? can i mount them instead.?? | 17:14 |
| ikonia | u007-2: are you trying to do it over the internet ? | 17:14 |
| u007-2 | ikonia - no, only within lan | 17:14 |
| legend2440 | flipmode: if you right click in terminal window and edit current profile can you change color? | 17:14 |
| xq | vignesh: hmm, if you're on a --- what u007-2 said :\ | 17:14 |
| ikonia | u007-2 is it on the same 192.168 network | 17:14 |
| jdkarns | Cpudan80, yes i agree but Ubuntu is what did it | 17:14 |
| skillz | how to install tar.bz2 files? | 17:14 |
| alsadk | <DRebellion> how can i stop tracepath | 17:14 |
| gregory_ | soundray: ah, yes, i see the xargs, let me try to work that in | 17:14 |
| alsadk | ? | 17:14 |
| soundray | jdkarns: I don't think Windows will accept being on the second disk | 17:14 |
| u007-2 | ikonia - yes :) | 17:14 |
| alexei12 | hello :-) | 17:14 |
| soundray | skillz: you don't if you can avoid it at all. What are you trying to install? | 17:14 |
| ikonia | skillz: that are "zip" files, you don't install them. tar jxvf $file_name will uncompress them | 17:14 |
| gregory_ | soundray: later | 17:14 |
| ikonia | u007-2: show me the rule again please. | 17:15 |
| u007-2 | ikonia - 192.168.0.100:88 to 192.168.0.2:80 | 17:15 |
| jdkarns | Cpudan80, well not ubuntu but the grubs installation didnt seem to consider vista at all | 17:15 |
| soundray | gregory_: good luck | 17:15 |
| gligorhoria | is it safe to CONFIG_HZ to 50 on the kernel, and would that make the pings on the server? (how many pauses per second on the cpu) | 17:15 |
| u007-2 | okay, wait | 17:15 |
| Cpudan80 | jdkarns: OK - but the windows people know more about Vista's nonstandard boot records | 17:15 |
| skillz | i downloaded F4L, and was wondering how to isntall it | 17:15 |
| ikonia | gligorhoria where do you want to set config_hz | 17:15 |
| skillz | thanks | 17:15 |
| Cpudan80 | jdkarns: Once you get vista working again, you can redo grub | 17:15 |
| gligorhoria | when i compile the new kernell | 17:15 |
| ikonia | gligorhoria: in what section | 17:15 |
| jdkarns | Cpudan80, ya window sucks | 17:15 |
| vignesh | i have nearly 5 gb to be transferred thru ftp.. is it possible to do without making a duplicate copy of the files..?? can i mount them instead.?? if so how?? | 17:15 |
| xq | rsync might work, vignesh? | 17:15 |
| gligorhoria | procesor and stuff :D | 17:16 |
| u007-2 | ikonia - sudo iptables -t nat -i eth1 -A PREROUTING -p tcp -d 192.168.0.100 --dport 88 -j DNAT --to 192.168.0.2:80 | 17:16 |

| _2 | vignesh did you get what you wanted out of chmod ? and you do know that dirrectories have to be executable but most text files you don't want executable executing an html file could do really strange things to a system. linux does not use .ext to determine what it can execute it uses the parmissions bit. | 17:17 |
| evil_tech | xjkx: otherwise it acts like the live cd | 17:17 |
| u007-2 | ikonia - okay.. :) | 17:17 |
| j0 | ikonia: get an error at 2gb, or the application will just say "2gb file system limit" | 17:17 |
| alexei12 | vista is crappy lame | 17:17 |

| Kaapa | Cpudan80, thanks | 17:18 |
| xjkx | evil_tech, every change i make, it will, in the same time, do it ? | 17:18 |
| ikonia | j0 exactly what are you doing, | 17:18 |
| skillz | i extracted f4l into a file, but how do i install it? it seems to have a make file in it | 17:18 |
| jdkarns | Cpudan80, Thanks I will go there and see....thanks alot | 17:18 |
| Cpudan80 | jdkarns: I'm over there too | 17:18 |
| evil_tech | xjkx: not to mention that even under heavy use you will never reach the read write cycle life a a flash drive | 17:18 |
| j0 | ikonia: right now i'm running a virtual machine on a windows computer with the files stored on a samba mount | 17:18 |
| u007-2 | ikonia - still fail :( sudo iptables -t nat -i eth1 -A PREROUTING -p tcp -d 192.168.0.100 --sport 88 -j DNAT --to 192.168.0.2 --dport 80 | 17:18 |
| xjkx | evil_tech, i heard its 1000 cycle :p normally | 17:19 |
| jdkarns | Cpudan80, can i open multipul sessions with xchat to go to #windows at the same time? | 17:19 |
| skillz | i extracted f4l into a file, but how do i install it? it seems to have a make file in it | 17:19 |
| Cpudan80 | jdkarns: type /join ##windows | 17:19 |
| j0 | ikonia: it's as if the samba export (whatever the terminology is) has a flag saying there's a 2gb limit | 17:19 |
| xjkx | evil_tech, by speaking of heavy, it will make it heavy won't it ? | 17:19 |
| ikonia | u007-2 pop into #netfilter and people will help you work it through | 17:19 |
| vignesh | _2, i didn't wat u told.. but i used chmod -R 777 .. is that wrong..? | 17:19 |
| ikonia | skillz: have you read the "README" file ? | 17:19 |
| skillz | there is no REAME file | 17:19 |
| skillz | inti | 17:19 |
| skillz | *in it | 17:19 |
| ikonia | j0: are you just copying a file or are you zipping it / taring it etc | 17:19 |
| u007-2 | ikonia - okay :) thanks :) | 17:19 |
| ikonia | skillz: where did you get the file | 17:19 |
| jdkarns | Cpudan80, sorry to be such a noobie but you gotta start somewhere to get away from Windows | 17:20 |
| Kaapa | how can I know what ubuntu version I have installed in a server? | 17:20 |
| suicidepills | I just installed fglrx-control, but when I type "fglrx-control" in terminal I get "command not found" | 17:20 |

| Cpudan80 | jdkarns: lol its ok | 17:20 |
| evil_tech | xjkx: there was an article about real cycle use on slashdot | 17:20 |

| skillz | directed from the F4L site | 17:20 |
| ikonia | j0 your modifying it ? how are you modifying it ? | 17:20 |
| _2 | vignesh it's a security hole. "wrong" is totally up to your discression. | 17:20 |
| Kaapa | thanks | 17:20 |
| genii | skillz: flash 4 linux stopped being developed in late 2005, it may not operate properly. This said, if it's a binary run it by making it executable: sudo chmod +x f4lfilenamegoeshere then run: ./f4lfilenamegoeshere | 17:20 |
| ikonia | skillz: is there any info on the f4l site ? | 17:20 |
| j0 | ikonia: so i can write to it.. it's a virtual disk file. VMware Workstation cannot open one of the virtual disks needed by this VM because it is larger than the maximum file size supported by the host file system. | 17:21 |
| ikonia | j0 thats not a host file system issue, ext3 will support terra byte files | 17:21 |
| skillz | ikonia: no not realy... not much said.. i am looking for a flash program that will help me make small basic flash movies to put on a website.. do you no of any apart from this old F4L? | 17:21 |
| arkon | sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-`uname -r` | 17:21 |
| arkon | what does this do? | 17:21 |
| j0 | ikonia: i know.. it's a samba issue | 17:21 |
| maestrotech | j0: what is your host system's OS ? | 17:21 |
| ikonia | j0: so the image / virtual drive is on samba file systems ? | 17:21 |
| arkon | sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-`uname -r` | 17:22 |
| j0 | maestrotech: the one running samba is ubuntu 6 server | 17:22 |
| j0 | ikonia: yes | 17:22 |
| arkon | what does this do? | 17:22 |
| arkon | :) | 17:22 |
| ikonia | arkon: gets the backports modules for your current kernel | 17:22 |
| skillz | i am looking for a flash program that will help me make small basic flash movies to put on a website.. do you no of any apart from this old F4L? | 17:22 |
| maestrotech | j0: and you are running Windows in a VM? | 17:22 |
| arkon | and what's that? | 17:22 |
| _2 | vignesh anything in that dir or any of it's subdirs can be edited and executed by anyone. well anyone that can access/crack that system and if you execute anything in there after someone else has edited it you may be opening a door for a root kit | 17:22 |
| ikonia | j0: try touching a 2.1 GB file on the samba share | 17:22 |

| xjkx | evil_tech, do you know a website teaching how to make it persistent ? the links i got didnt even talk about that | 17:22 |
| neumind | how instaal usplush? | 17:23 |
| Cpudan80 | Kaapa: no | 17:23 |
| neumind | how install usplush? | 17:23 |
| ikonia | !usplash > neumind | 17:23 |

| neumind | ikonia, ty | 17:23 |
| arkon | gnubien from the alsa channel told me that , that is the way i can update my alsa driver from 1.0.14 to 1.0.15 | 17:23 |
| skillz | i am looking for a flash program that will help me make small basic flash movies to put on a website.. do you no of any apart from this old F4L? | 17:23 |
| Kaapa | Cpudan80, server is behind firewall, I need do download and scp stuff | 17:23 |
| arkon | but it didn't work | 17:23 |
| Kaapa | Cpudan80, can I use proxy? | 17:23 |
| arkon | so how can i update? | 17:23 |
| _2 | vignesh it's just simple not a good idea to chmod 777 -R * if there are any files in it at all. | 17:23 |
| ikonia | skillz: flash support is pretty poor in linux | 17:23 |
| mrmudd | skills: Pencil (http://www.les-stooges.org/pascal/pencil/index.php) can export to flash. It's an animation application, but it may do the trick. | 17:23 |
| Cpudan80 | Kaapa: I dunno never tried | 17:24 |
| j0 | ikonia: i dont really have any 2gb files i can just mess with from windows... what are you trying to get at with that? | 17:24 |
| skillz | ikonia: oh ok, thakns for letting me know.. will use Windows XP instaed then | 17:24 |
| maestrotech | j0: I thought you just said that your host system was Ubuntu? | 17:24 |
| anacron10 | again me with a little question: which is the default protocol windows use to share files in a network, and Mac? | 17:24 |
| evil_tech | SMB | 17:24 |
| ikonia | j0: I want to know if the samba share will allow 2gb or great files, or if it is something specific to this file/file type | 17:24 |
| j0 | maestrotech: oh.. host for the share is ubuntu... host for the vm is windows | 17:24 |
| arkon | gnubien from the alsa channel told me that , that is the way i can update my alsa driver from 1.0.14 to 1.0.15 | 17:24 |
| arkon | but it didn't work | 17:24 |
| soundray | arkon: go to System-Administration-Software sources and enable the backports on the Updates tab | 17:24 |
| arkon | any ideas? | 17:24 |
| ikonia | j0: hang on, just found something | 17:25 |
| _2 | vignesh and i don't mean to sound like the security police. it's your system just want you to know what you have done. | 17:25 |
| noelferreira | i use amd64 and when i use mplayer or totem my computer always go to screen saver. how can't avoid that happens? | 17:25 |
| suicidepills | I just installed fglrx-control, but when I type "fglrx-control" in terminal I get "command not found" | 17:25 |
| ikonia | j0: be with you in a minute, just checking the versions in 6.06 | 17:25 |
| arkon | linux-backports-modules-2.6.22-14-generic is already the newest version. | 17:25 |
| arkon | 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 216 not upgraded. | 17:25 |
| maestrotech | j0: okay, so your VM Host is WIndows. You are running an Ubuntu Guest. And you are trying to copy a file from the VM Host to the Ubuntu Guest? | 17:25 |
| arkon | but it still says 1.0.14 | 17:25 |
| arkon | linux-backports-modules-2.6.22-14-generic is already the newest version. | 17:25 |
| arkon | 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 216 not upgraded. | 17:25 |
| soundray | noelferreira: use the -stop-xscreensaver option with mplayer | 17:26 |
| ikonia | j0: is the share mounted on a windows machine or a linux machine | 17:26 |
| arkon | so it's already installed | 17:26 |
| j0 | ikonia: windows | 17:26 |
| arkon | i don't understand | 17:26 |
| ikonia | j0: ahhh thats annoying. | 17:26 |
| soundray | arkon: have you rebooted? | 17:26 |
| alsadk | i used sudo tracepath site coz the site late look http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60050/ what is that mean? | 17:26 |
| arkon | yes | 17:26 |
| j0 | maestrotech: the guest is irrelevant in this case.. 2 seperate computers, a file server running ubuntu with a samba share containing the vm files... and a windows workstation running vmware | 17:26 |
| ikonia | j0: there is a limit in early versions of samba that you need to enable "lfs" or "large file support" not sure how youd enable that at a windows level | 17:26 |
| j0 | ikonia: yeah :) | 17:26 |
| noelferreira | soundray, and in totem? what i do? i think i disable that option in gui and it doesn't work as well. i think the bug is only on amd64 arvhitetures | 17:27 |
| neumind | ikonia, u know how install startup manager? | 17:27 |
| quickbrownfox_ | st | 17:27 |
| arkon | what now | 17:27 |
| ikonia | neumind already installed | 17:27 |

| anacron10 | is SMB compatible with Samba? | 17:27 |
| soundray | noelferreira: has it been reported as a bug? | 17:27 |
| Cpudan80 | jdkarns: no --- I see you over there | 17:27 |
| jdkarns | Cpudan80, lol | 17:27 |
| ikonia | u007-2 iptables -FX | 17:28 |
| maestrotech | j0: the "2 separate computers" wasn't made clear. It sounded like he was copying to/from on the same physical computer. Just trying to get clarification. | 17:28 |
| ikonia | neumind pardon | 17:28 |
| soundray | anacron10: that question makes no sense. Samba is an implementation of SMB (= server message block) | 17:28 |
| ikonia | j0: one moment, just reading | 17:28 |
| arkon | soundray , i rebooted after i installed them without that backport from updates being checked | 17:28 |
| noelferreira | i think so. but many time ago. i have this problem almost for a year. https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-screensaver/+bug/59688 | 17:28 |
| arkon | i guess it installed them | 17:28 |

| ikonia | j0: and this is %100 an ubuntu 6.06 box ? | 17:28 |

| DrIP | brb | 17:29 |
| noelferreira | soundray, sorry this one i guess: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/totem/+bug/73029 | 17:29 |
| arkon | or , do i have to reboot after i check that in update tab? | 17:29 |
| ikonia | evil_tech dhcp and pxe do not know about each other | 17:29 |
| vignesh | whats the command for unmount?? | 17:29 |
| j0 | ikonia: how would i double-check? to my knowledge i ONLY have ubuntu 6.06 boxes | 17:29 |
| Toznoshio | Q: Where can I find comprehensive reviews related to software for Ubuntu? | 17:29 |
| soundray | arkon: the backports check box has to be checked. When it's updated the package lists, you should run the apt-get command as it has been recommended to you | 17:29 |
| ikonia | evil_tech setup mac address filters | 17:29 |

| evil_tech | its umount not unmount | 17:30 |
| ikonia | vignesh: I said umount | 17:31 |
| ikonia | vignesh: not unmount | 17:31 |
| _2 | vignesh thats cause you are not paying atteition | 17:31 |

| ramzes | )) | 17:32 |
| ramzes | test | 17:32 |
| vignesh | after i mount the folder isn't there any way to change its permissions?? chmod has not effect.. | 17:32 |
| exneo | hey are linux swap partitions secure | 17:32 |
| soundray | ramzes: failed | 17:32 |
| genii | evil_tech: I think you may want something more like thin client server setup than to keep installing by PXE every netboot | 17:32 |
| ikonia | exneo define secure | 17:32 |
| Dave2 | exneo, they're unencrypted by default if that's what you mean. | 17:33 |
| iNeo | exneo: No | 17:33 |
| _2 | exneo lots of discussion on the interweb about that. | 17:33 |
| vignesh | is there any option to make a mount non read-only..?? | 17:33 |
| exneo | like can customs rip encription keys off swap partitions | 17:33 |
| exneo | ineo | 17:33 |
| iNeo | exneo: They contain date | 17:33 |
| ikonia | vignesh mount -o rw | 17:33 |
| jdkarns | ikonia, some how when i installed Ubuntu on its own hard drive it stopped vista from booting and I have tried (maybe incorrectly) to edit menu.lst to boot Vista without any luck | 17:34 |
| _2 | exneo not if you don't use swap :))) | 17:34 |
| bashiskillingme | Anyone know any reason why when run in a bash shell script.. tar would add a ? to the end of a file name to make it "blah.tar.gz?" | 17:34 |
| ferric84 | I'm trying to ./configure something, and getting an error saying "could not find python headers" - how can I fix this? | 17:34 |
| neumind | how install usplash theme? | 17:34 |
| vignesh | ikonia, can that be used along with --bind? | 17:34 |
| ikonia | jdkarns define stoped booting | 17:34 |
| ikonia | vignesh: errrrrr....I think so | 17:34 |
| soundray | jdkarns: Vista won't boot as long as it's on the second disk. | 17:34 |
| ikonia | neumind: read the link it tells you | 17:34 |
| alsadk | i used sudo tracepath site coz the site late look http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60050/ what is that mean? | 17:34 |
| iNeo | !usplash | 17:34 |
| ubotu | To select the usplash artwork you want, use "sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so && sudo update-initramfs -u" - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplashCustomizationHowto for adding your custom artwork | 17:34 |
| vignesh | ikonia, ill try n tel u.. :) | 17:34 |
| _2 | !usplash > neumind | 17:34 |
| vignesh | ikonia, does the order of options matter?? i mean where i give --bind and where -o rw ? | 17:35 |
| ikonia | j0: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba/+bug/38886 | 17:35 |
| jdkarns | ikonia, hmm sound ray says it wont boot if Vista is on the second disk | 17:35 |
| ikonia | jdkarns: ask in ##windows to confirm that | 17:35 |
| ikonia | vignesh -o is normally the last option | 17:35 |
| jdkarns | ikonia, there isnt anyone in #windows | 17:35 |
| ikonia | jdkarns there are MANY people in ##windows | 17:36 |
| soundray | jdkarns: ##windows | 17:36 |
| _2 | vignesh opetions must follow the -o option1,option2,option3 but switches liek --bind can be anywhwere | 17:36 |
| j0 | ikonia: so it's a permanent bug in ubuntu? | 17:36 |
| _2 | sorry for typos. | 17:36 |
| genii | jdkarns: Two hash signs there not one | 17:36 |
| ikonia | j0: not sure about that, I think it's missing an option which you need to work out how to tell windows to send (the -lfs option) | 17:36 |
| vignesh | _2, ty | 17:36 |
| vignesh | ikonia, -o rw doesnt work with --bind.. the mount is still read only.. | 17:37 |
| j0 | ikonia: yeah, who knows | 17:37 |
| soundray | vignesh: if it's mounted already, you have to use -o remount,rw | 17:37 |
| ikonia | vignesh you'll need to do the origional mount point, not the bind mount point | 17:37 |
| _2 | vignesh the origenal has to be rw for the bind to be rw | 17:37 |
| ikonia | j0: I'm investigating now | 17:37 |
| vignesh | ikonia, ya i did.. | 17:37 |
| arkon | can't anyone help me set up my 5.1 speaker set? | 17:37 |
| ikonia | j0: keep with me for a bit, just trying to find out what/how to pass in windows | 17:37 |
| vignesh | cant i share a mounted point thru ftp?? | 17:38 |
| soundray | !fuse > vignesh | 17:38 |
| ikonia | vignesh: you don't share ftp | 17:38 |
| vignesh | the permissions are set correctly for owner and group.. only for others it always remain --- ?? | 17:38 |
| j0 | ikonia: thanks a bunch.. i'm looking at the samba side :) | 17:38 |
| vignesh | ikonia, i mean, i wanna transfer 5 gb without copied.. so i tried mount --bind | 17:38 |
| ikonia | vignesh thats not going to work | 17:39 |
| vignesh | ikonia, but why? | 17:39 |
| jdkarns | omg windows is a nightmare...and i got work to do | 17:39 |
| ikonia | vignesh: because a bound partition is just basiclly a mount point link | 17:39 |
| soundray | jdkarns: just swap your two disks | 17:40 |
| fiXXXerMet | Is there a way to keep from upgrading the kernel when I do apt-get upgrade? | 17:40 |
| ikonia | fiXXXerMet: apt-cache policy | 17:40 |
| arkon | can't anyone help me set up my 5.1 speaker set? | 17:40 |
| _2 | vignesh only if you can already write in the fs can you write in it with a --bind mount that is to say the binding an fs does not "remount" it. it only makes it avalable at another location. you can -o remount,rw depending on the fs you may also want to supply some psyudo permissions like -o remount,rw,umask=000 or -o remount,rw,dmask=007,fmask=117 | 17:40 |
| vignesh | ikonia, oh ok.. how do i do the tranfer without making a copy then? | 17:41 |
| ikonia | vignesh: do you mean "move" data, rather than copy | 17:41 |
| jdkarns | soundray, I think the boot record may be destroyed by Grubs or something | 17:41 |
| fiXXXerMet | ikonia: How do I use that? | 17:41 |
| ikonia | fiXXXerMet: man apt-cache | 17:41 |
| jdkarns | i really dont know tho | 17:41 |
| _2 | vignesh the mount man page has all the details if you need more info. | 17:41 |
| vignesh | ikonia, no. i dont wanna transfer the entire 5 gb to my /home/ftp folder.. is there any other way.?? | 17:41 |
| ikonia | jdkarns why are you not listening to what is being told | 17:41 |
| soundray | jdkarns: on the second disk? I don't think so | 17:42 |
| ikonia | vignesh: just move what you want | 17:42 |
| fiXXXerMet | Every time I upgrade the kernel, after reboot, I start getting "Bus error"s everywhere | 17:42 |
| vignesh | _2, yeah i got your point now.. in my case the original fs itself is read only.. | 17:42 |
| vignesh | ikonia, isn't there a way without moving? | 17:42 |
| ikonia | vignesh: what EXACTLY do you want to do | 17:42 |
| _2 | vignesh yes that's what i'm saying you'll need to remount it first | 17:42 |
| vignesh | ikonia, i want to transfer 5 gb from one system to another system through lan.. | 17:43 |
| jdkarns | I think im to stupid to understand...are you saying simply change the Sata cables around to make the vista hard drive disk one? | 17:43 |
| soundray | jdkarns: yes | 17:43 |
| ikonia | vignesh: ok, ftp, scp, nfs, samba, http download form a web server, fuse, | 17:43 |
| jdkarns | soundray, ok i will try that | 17:43 |
| ikonia | vignesh: any of those options will work | 17:43 |
| jdkarns | soundray, thanks | 17:43 |
| _2 | vignesh scp is the easiest of those imo | 17:43 |
| Seamus | Has anyone gotten suspend working on a thinkpad t61p under hardy haron? | 17:43 |
| vignesh | _2, no the original fs is windows' partition.. so it is always read only.. and it cant be used in ftp.. | 17:43 |
| vignesh | ikonia, thanks. | 17:44 |
| ikonia | Seamus: #ubuntu+1 | 17:44 |
| yago | does anyone use Ada? | 17:44 |
| vignesh | _2, anyways.. ty.. | 17:44 |
| soundray | Seamus: ask in #ubuntu+1 please | 17:44 |
| _2 | vignesh no. you can mount it rw. | 17:44 |
| vulcar | Did anyone else have trouble installing ndiswrapper-1.52 on ubuntu 7.10? I have followed everything in the walkthrough but it keeps reporting errors at the end of the make install under the root account. | 17:44 |

| vulcar | I did a make distclean, make install, and it keeps reporting errors. let me get a specific error one second. | 17:45 |

| abhishek | he told me to install libc6 packages through synaptic manager but it does not worked | 17:50 |
| vulcar | Alright, i read that wiki ikonia but I have tried the apt-get install ndiswrapper-common before and it is saying : ndiswrapper-common is already the newest version. but when i type ndiswrapper -i it is saying that it is not installed and i need to run the apt-get command again | 17:50 |
| abhishek | so can you tell me different way how to remove this error | 17:51 |
| soundray | abhishek: what are you trying to install? | 17:51 |
| Shepherd] | Is there a command parameter to open a program in a different workspace? | 17:51 |
| ikonia | abhishek: libc6 packages will get installed via auto updates, don't try to force libc packages to install | 17:51 |
| ikonia | abhishek: what where you trying to do that needed a libc update | 17:51 |
| ikonia | vulcar please show me the exact error | 17:51 |
| Xman | abhishek: i think you need an automatic update | 17:51 |
| vulcar | I have had ndiswrapper working last week but i recently reinstall ubuntu after playing with fedora and cannot get it up again. I wrote down all the steps i did last time but this time it is giving me those errors i listed above. | 17:51 |
| maestrotech | acalbaza: did you install the Ubuntu Restricted Extras package? | 17:52 |
| ikonia | vulcar: don't try to compile it | 17:52 |
| _2 | abhishek libc6 is like the kernel that the kernel runs in.... | 17:52 |
| genii | vulcar: You should not need to compile ndiswrapper at all. Just to: sudo apt-get update;sudo apt-get install ndiswrapper-utils-1.9 | 17:52 |

| vignesh | ikonia, how else do i get them? | 17:56 |
| ikonia | vignesh: and you'd need to build a repo - not just copy files | 17:56 |
| ikonia | vignesh: apt-mirror ? | 17:57 |
| ikonia | vignesh: rsync ? | 17:57 |
| vignesh | ikonia, wat r those? | 17:57 |
| soundray | vignesh: listen to ubotu ^^ | 17:57 |
| ikonia | vignesh: applications to help you get the files (not build a mirror - just get the files) | 17:57 |
| ikonia | vignesh: and aptoncd as ubotu suggested | 17:57 |
| vignesh | ikonia, will they build a .deb?? | 17:57 |
| vulcar | ikonia, i got it installed now. Thanks for all the help with ndiswrapper. Out of curiosity any reason why last week I was able to do the compile commands fine and this week it reported errors after a reformat? | 17:58 |
| acalbaza | maestrotech : nope.. how can i do that? | 17:58 |
| abhishek | sorry but still same problem dependency not satisfied | 17:58 |
| ikonia | vignesh: deb's are already built int he repo's | 17:58 |
| vignesh | ikonia, i dont want deb's since there are many dependency issues.. | 17:58 |
| ikonia | vulcar ubuntu's had updates since ? | 17:58 |
| ikonia | vignesh what do you want then ? | 17:58 |
| maestrotech | acalbaza: Click Applications Menu > Add/Remove > Search for "Restricted" | 17:58 |

| abhishek | hey ikonia you there?? | 17:58 |
| ikonia | vignesh: if you mirroring the repo - you won't have any dependency issues | 17:59 |
| ikonia | abhishek: yes | 17:59 |
| vignesh | ikonia, ya thats wat i wanna do.. mirror the repo.. | 17:59 |
| vignesh | ikonia, how do i do that? | 17:59 |
| maestrotech | acalbaza: it will list the "Ubuntu Restricted Extras" package? | 17:59 |
| ikonia | vignesh: so you need to mirror the debs | 17:59 |
| _2 | nobody ? | 17:59 |
| DRebellion | vignesh, aptoncd | 17:59 |
| ikonia | vignesh: read the link ubotu sent you, or look at apt-mirror or rsync | 17:59 |
| vignesh | DRebellion, ill try it.. | 17:59 |

| legend2440 | vulcar: from what i see in your pastebin you were running sudo as root. its not a good idea to login as root all the time. if thats what you are doing | 18:00 |
| maestrotech | ikonia: you are really good at this multitask thing. thank you so much for being here. i'm sure i speak for everyone regarding the appreciation i have for you. | 18:00 |

| DRebellion | vignesh, yes | 18:03 |

| aimtrainer | _2, doesnt work - already tried | 18:17 |
| genii | sugoruyo: If the receiving partition is same size/larger yes | 18:17 |

| ikonia | fr0nk_ thats debatable. | 18:17 |
| franek | I kill my ubuntu :( | 18:17 |

| fr0nk_ | ikonia: when i enable xinerama, compiz-fusion doesn't get enabled | 18:18 |

| genii | sugoruyo: Exactly | 18:18 |
| Seb | aptitude doesn't see it, but it see it recommended by libdvdread3 | 18:18 |

| fr0nk_ | hm.... *unplugging 2nd monitor and switching back* | 18:18 |
| ikonia | fr0nk_ as I said, thats debatable, it dpends on a users config / hardware on a per user basis | 18:18 |

| K-Yo | I just learnt that I have a x64 CPU... Should I install ubuntu_64bits Or I can keep the 32bits version I already have? ---- I have some random freezes, could it be caused by that? | 18:19 |

| neumind | how install usplush theme? | 18:19 |

| fr0nk_ | ikonia: yeah, i already unplugged the 2nd monitor ;P.... compiz-fusion >> everything else | 18:19 |
| seisen | K-Yo it really doesn't matter which one you use | 18:19 |
| Marupa | I've got a fairly unique problem here...well, more an annoyance. Whenever I'm in a terminal (and this only happens on my terminal, not on on my other linux box) any time I try to backspace when there's nothing left, it inserts a space and a g, rather than flashing the screen. What's going on? | 18:20 |
| soundray | K-Yo: no, stick with 32bit if that's what you have | 18:20 |
| fr0nk_ | compiz-fusion is the reason because why i switched from xp to ubuntu ;P | 18:20 |
| aimtrainer | _2, doestn work either... wouldnt help though, because the programm which would execute the command does not have root | 18:20 |
| fr0nk_ | the main reason :D | 18:20 |
| soundray | K-Yo: random freezes are most often caused by faulty RAM. Run memtest86 from the boot menu to check for that. | 18:20 |
| _2 | abhishek that would lose all permissions and the copy would be worthless. | 18:20 |
| Black_Magic | fr0nk_: It almost always starts out as that :P | 18:20 |

| ubotu | KRaZy_WaKa sorta: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebootstrapChroot use this to build 32 bit environments on a 64 bit box | 18:21 |
| _2 | aimtrainer maybe you could be a little more specific about what you are trying to do ? | 18:21 |
| acalbaza | maestrotech : No suitable demux plugin. This often means that the file format is not supported. | 18:21 |

| ubotu | abhishek: 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 | 18:31 |
| SliMM | rubystallion: well, create a launcher (or add a custom application launcher to the pannel) that runs nautilus /media/hda1 or whatever your ntfs partition is | 18:31 |
| soundray | rubystallion: check out the nautilus items in gconf-editor | 18:31 |

| abhishek | now plz can anybody tell me how to copy contents of root partition to windows partition eg sda 6 | 18:32 |
| SliMM | nunomdc: install compiz-config | 18:32 |
| legend2440 | Marupa: never heard of that before sorry | 18:32 |
| maestrotech | acalbaza: Use synaptic. Search for libxine codecs, and libxine ffmpeg. I think those are the ones you need. | 18:32 |
| vignesh | abhishek, mount it as read write and then u ll be able 2 do it using nautilus.. | 18:32 |
| rubystallion | soundray: That was easy, thanks! | 18:33 |
| evil_tech | !tar | 18:33 |
| FreakGuard | abhishek, mount win part, tar the data you want to copy (to store permission) and copy | 18:33 |
| ubotu | Files with extensions .tar, .gz, .tgz, .zip, .bz2, .7z, .ace and other archive file formats can be opened with file-roller (GNOME) or Ark (KDE) - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression | 18:33 |
| abhishek | am not getting how to mount win part and tar the data | 18:33 |
| ani1 | how does one capture output from strace -f? | 18:33 |
| soundray | abhishek: don't use nautilus. Make tar archives of your important data -- file-roller is a good idea, see ubotu ^^ | 18:33 |
| soundray | !ntfs-3g | abhishek | 18:34 |

| ani1 | !backports > methods | 19:01 |
| nickrud | methods: it's for newer versions of supported software | 19:01 |
| nickrud | methods: although the newer versions aren't supported. Confusing ;) | 19:02 |
| methods | so 1.x isn't support even in backports ? | 19:02 |
| maestrotech | methods: for example, if obscure bugs are fixed...they will be put into backports. | 19:02 |
| boris | ive got a problem with wine : when my comp gets tasks that use alot of ram/CPU/other sys resources, it gets louder, but even after i kill those tasks, it's still loud, lol. its a problem with wine cuz its only app that uses alot of sys resources. how do i make my comp quiet again or something ? | 19:02 |
| methods | so they call them back because your actually updating an old release ? so this is where my updater gets new packages ? | 19:03 |
| legend2440 | flipmode: its called gnome-terminal in synaptic. you could try reinstalling it. | 19:03 |
| acalbaza | maestrotech : heh..no joy | 19:03 |

| nickrud | methods: mostly they come from gutsy-updates | 19:03 |

| maestrotech | acalbaza: would you be opposed to trying to restart X or possibly rebooting? | 19:04 |
| methods | why would you guys not support 1.x ? | 19:04 |
| nickrud | titusg: you can do it with xmodmap , I don't know the exact syntax though | 19:04 |
| maestrotech | acalbaza: or, even that, using another music proggie. | 19:04 |
| acalbaza | not at all.. | 19:04 |
| legend2440 | crashhandler: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/nonautilusplease | 19:04 |

| ani1 | a59303: ubotu is a bot not a real person :) | 19:05 |
| boris | ani1: the comp seemed to have shut up, maybe im just imagining it because i turned my speakers loud | 19:05 |
| maestrotech | acalbaza: check out synaptic, there are a few really cool music organizers that you might find are valid substitutes. | 19:05 |

| maestrotech | acalbaza: you might also want to check with the #amarok channel people. | 19:06 |
| boris | ani1: is there any way to "rearrange" system resources ? | 19:06 |
| nickrud | jdl: not sure what would be causing that. you can install tracepath and run it in the terminal. Will tell you where it gets dropped | 19:07 |
| acalbaza | maestrotech : let me try to bounce first... thanks for the help, brb... | 19:07 |
| ani1 | jdl: probably not the issue but check /etc/hosts | 19:07 |
| boris | ani1: strangely, mine is quite quiet, even after i start a ton of programs the same time i login | 19:07 |
| Toznoshio | Does anyone have experience with chkrootkit & rkhunter ? | 19:07 |
| ani1 | boris: what do you mean by rearrange ? | 19:08 |
| jdl | thank you for the /etc/hosts suggestion, it looks ok and other web sites work | 19:08 |

| === Jberg is now known as Jberg88 | ||
| === Jberg88 is now known as Jberg | ||

| Toznoshio | Phydeaux, ok, what is the name of the server (or the IP address) and what is the name of the share? | 19:23 |
| ani1 | jdl: mines about the same what happened when you put the ip address in your browser timeout still? | 19:23 |
| Phydeaux | toznoshio the name of the server is fileserver | 19:23 |
| ani1 | jdl: also try a proxy to see if its an ISP issue or a ban issue etc. | 19:23 |
| Phydeaux | toznoshio i have no clue as to the ip add | 19:23 |
| jdl | anil: yup, putting the IP causes the web browser to start loading, i see about 1/3rd of the page and then it hangs | 19:23 |
| ani1 | jdl: or use tor | 19:24 |
| Toznoshio | Phydeaux, what is the name of the share? | 19:24 |
| ani1 | jdl: thats weird...try a diff browser | 19:24 |
| jdl | anil: if it were a proxy issue, wouldn't i have trouble with other web sites? | 19:24 |
| cdc | jdl: if it was a proxy issue it could be missing hops to that specific web server - correct me if i am wrong - | 19:25 |
| jdl | anil: what is tor? do i need to install it (sudo apt-get install tor)? | 19:25 |
| ani1 | jdl: no your isp could be blocking that site or your work w/e the case may be proxy will determine if its an ISP or Work proxy issue though if your being denied access | 19:25 |
| Phydeaux | toznoshio i have no idea what that means (total noob) | 19:25 |

| soundray | vallhalla81: have you got problems with the existing drivers? | 19:26 |

| Phydeaux | toznoshio i don't even know how to do that | 19:26 |
| jdl | anil: thanks for the URI, i will try it now | 19:26 |
| vallhalla81 | soundray: yes when i updated ubuntu they al went so dont have them atm | 19:27 |
| ani1 | jdl: yeah...they all would be affected ...what happened when you tried diff browser? | 19:27 |
| Phydeaux | toznoshio i do know that i can get all the way to where i select the file... i click open... and it just quits responding | 19:27 |

| Jahromeo | hi guys back again - got 2 problems 1st - why does my pc never start the wifi connection unless i reload all the settings - settings for wifi are corresp wpa - key is correct etc, all i do is click load - apply and it works | 19:48 |
| Jahromeo | but not by default | 19:48 |
| SatMan | which is more close to windows KDE or Gnome? | 19:48 |

| Jahromeo | 2nd is how do i move icons on the bottom taskbar aroudn what do i need to hold down all i can do atm open things | 19:48 |
| St0n3-C0l | soundray: He's the co-author of book Exploring the JDS Linux Desktop and Linux system administration by O`Reilly. I have one reason to trust him and give it a try ;) :P | 19:48 |
| Jahromeo | i cant seem to find out how to move them | 19:48 |
| ani1 | SatMan: neither really :\ | 19:48 |
| soundray | prettyricky: better to familiarize yourself with how files are organized on Ubuntu | 19:48 |
| brobostigon | SatMan: kde probebly | 19:48 |
| SatMan | Ok I have it installed | 19:49 |
| St0n3-C0l | Starnestommy: My system feels slow after it ehe and I do 'sudo ldconfig' it takes some time but then gets perfect ;) | 19:49 |
| SatMan | how do I disable all special effects in KDE? | 19:49 |
| prettyricky | everytime I download something i can just move it to a folder it ask for permission or no says I have no permission., thats annoying | 19:49 |
| ani1 | prettyricky: use sudo | 19:49 |
| peacelover | Hi All! | 19:50 |
| soundray | prettyricky: you shouldn't move files to that folder then | 19:50 |
| brobostigon | prettyricky: or gksudo if its gui | 19:50 |
| ani1 | ^^ | 19:50 |
| mohamed_ | hello all, anyone know a good database gui for JDBC ? | 19:50 |

| brobostigon | Kumool: a user requires a username, how can you have auser without username. | 19:51 |
| Jahromeo | prettyricky sudo nautilus - try that | 19:51 |
| prettyricky | like adding new bootskins | 19:51 |
| peacelover | The error is pasted on http://pastebin.ca/947882 | 19:51 |
| brobostigon | gksudo nautilus | 19:51 |
| soundray | prettyricky: don't use sudo nautilus please | 19:51 |
| Kumool | i wanna do kind of like a guest | 19:51 |
| prettyricky | ok thanks guys! | 19:52 |
| brobostigon | prettyricky: the proper command is, gksudo nautilus | 19:52 |
| soundray | Jahromeo, brobostigon: please don't recommend this -- let me find out what he's trying to do first | 19:52 |
| Jahromeo | whats gksudo do brobostigon? | 19:52 |

| Kumool | ok then with username but no password then? | 19:52 |
| Nookie^ | thanx | 19:52 |
| brobostigon | Jahromeo: gksudo is the same as sudo, sudo is cli, gksudo is for gui | 19:52 |
| soundray | !gksu | Jahromeo | 19:53 |
| ubotu | Jahromeo: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) | 19:53 |
| prettyricky | well i wanted to add some more bootskins | 19:53 |
| Jahromeo | ahhh k thanks brobostigon | 19:53 |
| Jahromeo | now got any input on my wifi/taskbar issue? | 19:53 |

| soundray | prettyricky: there are instructions for doing that | 19:54 |
| soundray | !splash | prettyricky | 19:54 |
| ubotu | prettyricky: To change the Gnome splash screen, use !gnome-splashscreen-manager or change the GConf key /apps/gnome-session/options/splash_image using !gconf-editor. | 19:54 |
| soundray | !usplash | prettyricky | 19:55 |
| ubotu | prettyricky: To select the usplash artwork you want, use "sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so && sudo update-initramfs -u" - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplashCustomizationHowto for adding your custom artwork | 19:55 |

| soundray | dabbill: make sure that you create no more than three primary partitions. Otherwise you want have room for an extended partition and you can't have more than four. | 19:59 |
| gregory_ | ubuntunoob: welcome | 20:00 |
| dabbill | soundray, i know that :) | 20:00 |

| DRebellion | ubuntunoob, its a chatroom (many to many conversation) | 20:02 |
| jimbojw | can anyone recommend a wireless headset supporting stereo sound and microphone? whether it jacks into the audio ports or exists as a USB soundcard doesn't matter to me so much as it works fairly seamlessly with ubuntu (gutsy) I do a lot of skyping for work, and it'd be nice to walk away from the computer whilst doing so | 20:02 |
| ubuntunoob | wow. there are tooo many message . i can't even catch up | 20:02 |
| jimbojw | thanks in advance for any recommendations | 20:02 |
| DRebellion | Jahromeo, perhaps an easy fix is to put the network restart commands in a script to run when you login? | 20:02 |
| jimbojw | yeah ubuntunoob, and sometimes the conversations overlap :) | 20:03 |
| Jahromeo | DRebellion, how would i do that? | 20:03 |
| Christoz | Can anyone tell me why firestarter suddenly stops working and the system tray icon dissapears.... | 20:03 |
| DRebellion | !startup | Jahromeo | 20:03 |
| ubotu | Jahromeo: To add programs to start up when you log into your Gnome session go to System>Preferences>Sessions and use the Startup Programs tab. For more information, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AddingProgramToSessionStartup - See !boot for starting non-interactive programs at boot | 20:03 |

| cdc | I have created a .sh file that connects my wlan0 interface to a new essid depending on if i am at work or if i am at home, is there anyway to have the script pause to see the results before it closes the terminal? | 20:03 |
| soundray | Jahromeo: agree with DRebellion -- you can add commands to /etc/rc.local to be run at boot independent of logging in | 20:03 |
| Jahromeo | anyone else have any recommendations for why my wifi refuses to work till i reapply the connections in startup | 20:03 |
| ubuntunoob | then would i interfere the others? they are discussing wlan problem | 20:04 |
| Jahromeo | soundray what the command be to apply ath0 settings? | 20:04 |
| gregory_ | cdc: sleep 3 f.e. | 20:04 |
| DRebellion | cdc, its a gnome-terminal setting. open a terminal and right-click and select edit current profile | 20:04 |
| soundray | Jahromeo: 'ifup ath0' | 20:04 |
| Christoz | Can you suggest me another room if this is not appropriate | 20:04 |
| Jahromeo | that will enable ath0 with the last network i wan on? | 20:04 |
| joe_ | My neigbors have a ruetor with the same name and channel as me, but it has wep encryption. Ubuntu keeps on wanting to try and connect to theirs. How do I force it to connect to mine? | 20:04 |
| Jahromeo | or is there a way to specify ath0 - netgear - wpakey - static/dhcp ip | 20:04 |

| Jahromeo | joe_ change your router name is easiest :P | 20:05 |
| DRebellion | Christoz, please stop repeating | 20:05 |
| soundray | Jahromeo: I think the reason that it doesn't work is a timing issue. If you put it in rc.local, use this line: '(sleep 60 ; ifup ath0) &'. You should fix your settings for ath0 in /etc/network/interfaces | 20:05 |
| jimbojw | is there a linux gaming channel I might join to ask my wireless headset question? may get more hits if such a chan exists | 20:05 |
| amenado | Jahromeo-> have you man interfaces? in particular look at preup | 20:05 |
| Jahromeo | k i will have a look at interfaces | 20:06 |
| soundray | jimbojw: I think pretty much every bluetooth headset would work | 20:06 |
| Christoz | ok sorry I thought i was forgotten | 20:06 |
| gregory_ | Christoz: maybe firestarter crashed? | 20:06 |
| pike_ | jimbojw: you can ask here alot of voip users use headsets | 20:06 |
| joe_ | Jahromeo, It's my parents, I can't change it. Whats the alternative? | 20:06 |
| stevendemorez | I'm having an issue concerning my webcam, I keep getting this error "VDIOCGHCHAN Invalid argument" (sorry for the caps) I have a v4l2 (uvc) webcam and I keep getting this error with regards to my webcam | 20:06 |
| Jahromeo | interfaces has my correct key - ssid everything amenado/soundray | 20:06 |
| Christoz | gregory_ i've installed it again and again but the problem still occurs | 20:07 |
| Jahromeo | but on bootup it wont start till i reapply in admin - network | 20:07 |
| jimbojw | really soundray ? you mean, with a USB bluetooth adapter? or usting the laptop's built-in bluetooth? I'm on a dell inspiron which came with feisty | 20:07 |
| soundray | Jahromeo: see if 'sudo ifup ath0' works on a command line in place of your reapplying procedure | 20:07 |
| amenado | Jahromeo-> i said look in the man pages for interfaces and specifically preup allows you to execute stuff | 20:07 |
| Christoz | gregory_ from the repositories and form firestarter's web page too | 20:07 |
| joe_ | If I go to manual config, It shows both linksys ssid's. How do I find the "gateway" in manual config? | 20:07 |
| Jahromeo | im looking at /etc/network/interfaces atm | 20:07 |
| Jahromeo | connection looks fine in there | 20:07 |
| jimbojw | pike_: thanks - hoping to find someone with a good experience with a headset and ubuntu | 20:07 |
| Jahromeo | just ubuntu doesnt take it on startup | 20:08 |
| gregory_ | Christoz: better use repo version only | 20:08 |
| amenado | Jahromeo-> have you man interfaces? | 20:08 |
| soundray | jimbojw: if it's got BT builtin, I would use that | 20:08 |
| Jahromeo | auto lo | 20:08 |
| Jahromeo | iface lo inet loopback | 20:08 |
| soundray | Jahromeo: is there a line 'auto ath0' in there? | 20:08 |
| Jahromeo | then its got my wifi info | 20:08 |
| jimbojw | soundray: hmm - i guess the first thing then is to test whether it works - maybe I can get it to recognize my cellphone ... | 20:08 |
| Christoz | gregory_ i've tried both ways like i said but the problem still occurs | 20:08 |
| Jahromeo | auth ath0 is right at the bottom yeah | 20:08 |
| cdc | Jahromeo, i wrote executable files that reset my wifi connection since on boot it doesn't recongnize the interface. If i knew how to make a .sh file run on boot i would share what I have with you. | 20:08 |
| Jahromeo | should i pastebin it? | 20:08 |
| soundray | Jahromeo: yes pls | 20:08 |

| Jahromeo | http://rafb.net/p/RGTcLc33.html - soundray/amenado | 20:09 |
| amenado | cdc look at man interfaces and preup option | 20:09 |
| Jahromeo | amenado its not so much that im not paying attention its that im noob and have no idea wth you are referring to :P | 20:09 |
| darkscript | does anybody know how to bridge a wireless network to a wired one..I want to link my xbox to my laptop and play on live | 20:09 |
| Jahromeo | im following what i can and puzzling it out | 20:10 |
| crashhandler | any great download manager to download stuff from rapidshare?anyone knows?ive tried Downloader for X but the interface seems so complicated! | 20:10 |
| gregory_ | Christoz: sorry i dont know more to help you | 20:10 |
| amenado | Jahromeo-> you have not done what I said, man interfaces | 20:10 |
| Jahromeo | how do i do that amenado | 20:10 |
| amenado | man interfaces in a terminal | 20:10 |
| soundray | Jahromeo: enter 'man interfaces' in a terminal to read the documentation of that config file | 20:10 |
| SubOne | I have a problem with burning CDs. I used to be able to burn them but now no matter which software i seem to use it says that it successfully creates the disc but the disk does not work. ANy suggestions? | 20:10 |
| cdc | Jahromeo - man interfaces is a manual for interfaces and how to modify the startup command to have it initialize your wifi from what I am reading and from what i understand from amenado | 20:10 |
| amenado | cdc affirmative | 20:11 |
| joe_ | When configuring manually, how do I find my gateway access? | 20:11 |
| Jahromeo | thanks | 20:11 |
| Christoz | gregory_ ok thanks ,when i was using the feisty version i'd no problem at all but this gutsy one ...i don't know it didn't impress me to tell you the truth | 20:11 |
| Jahromeo | soundray so anything in my pastebin look wrong? | 20:11 |
| soundray | joe_: if there's a router on your network, it's the IP of that. | 20:11 |
| Jahromeo | your gateway would be the router e.g. 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.1.1 usually | 20:12 |
| soundray | Jahromeo: no, looks all right to me. | 20:12 |
| cdc | amenado, thanks didn't realize that was a command - kinda like the goofy "which" command to tell you the location of programs. Always think they are not commands in terminal. | 20:12 |
| Jahromeo | what can i add in that to force it try boot soundray? | 20:12 |
| gregory_ | Christoz: ubuntu releases very 6 months if am correct. this has pros and cons for sure | 20:12 |
| dwxreape1 | if I want to add an additional group to a user, how can i do that | 20:13 |
| soundray | Jahromeo: in rc.local, use this line: '(sleep 60 ; ifup ath0) &'. | 20:13 |
| dwxreape1 | I go to the thing in gnome, and the user is not there, but the user is in etc/passwd | 20:13 |
| soundray | Jahromeo: everything except the 'quotes' | 20:13 |
| dwxreape1 | the www-data user should belong to another group, but i don't see it in "users and groups" in gnome | 20:13 |
| Jahromeo | what does that sleep line do? i dont want the wifi card to drop when dling or something etc | 20:13 |
| Jahromeo | thanks soundray | 20:13 |
| excalibas | hello, i have a strange problem, when i click the power button on ubuntu the system hangs, also with clt+alt+del, any ideas on how to solve this please? | 20:13 |
| dwxreape1 | can i use the gnome software? | 20:13 |
| Christoz | gregory_ what's "pros" and "cons"? | 20:14 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Christoz, You understand that firestarter is just an iptable manager. it does not need to run all the time. Unless you are specifically opening a port for a reason, it isnt needed on most desktops. | 20:14 |
| soundray | Jahromeo: it delays the execution of the following command by sixty seconds, which I think will get around the timing issue you seem to have. | 20:14 |
| darkscript | anybody know how to do a wireless -> ethernet bridge | 20:14 |
| dwxreape1 | how do I add a user to a group, why isn't the user in "users and groups in gnome" | 20:14 |
| === blue-frog__ is now known as blue-frog | ||
| Jahromeo | thanks soundray where do i dedit rc.local | 20:14 |
| jimbojw | soundray: i ran hcitool dev and got no output - just "Devices: " then nothing - guess the machine doesn't know about the bluetooth hardware :/ | 20:14 |
| Jahromeo | where can that be found | 20:14 |
| darkscript | usermod [user] -aG [new group name] | 20:15 |
| TXX | « /msg ubotu etiquette » | 20:15 |
| TXX | : / | 20:15 |
| soundray | Jahromeo: 'gksudo gedit /etc/rc.local' | 20:15 |
| dwxreape1 | how do I tell gnome to show me all users | 20:16 |
| dwxreape1 | !gnome show users | 20:16 |
| Christoz | Jack_Sparrow Yes i do,but what if the sys tray icon dissapears...if i run the firestarter again then it will be running twice right....this means memory loss..i've only have 768 RAM | 20:16 |
| Jahromeo | ok ta soundray thats done | 20:16 |
| soundray | jimbojw: does 'lspci' or 'lsmod' mention the bluetooth device? | 20:16 |
| Jahromeo | i might restart now to see if it works | 20:16 |
| TXX | So is there anybody that can help me with my internet problem, tags: wicd, eth0 no wireless vmnet0 no wireless | 20:17 |
| amenado | excalibas look for network related scripts in /etc/udev/rules.d that you can modify, its the network hanging preventing you from complete shutdown.. | 20:17 |
| jimbojw | soundray: lsmod does: bluetooth 57060 6 bnep,hidp,rfcomm,l2cap | 20:17 |
| Buzzons | hi, i just did this :: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading :: on my box, and rebooted. it now boots to grub, passes that and gives a fast flickering "_" then after a bit, it goes to a _ jusit flicking on and off slowly | 20:17 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Christoz, Have you done any reaserchon firestarter issuse on the web? | 20:17 |
| Buzzons | anyone got an idea? | 20:17 |
| soundray | Jahromeo: remember your interface will only come up 60 seconds after boot | 20:17 |
| Christoz | Jack_Sparrow not only the web | 20:17 |
| soundray | jimbojw: does 'lspci' or 'lsmod' mention the bluetooth device? | 20:18 |
| soundray | jimbojw: oops sorry | 20:18 |
| brobostigon | lsusb | 20:18 |
| soundray | jimbojw: does 'lsusb' mention the device? | 20:18 |
| jimbojw | Buzzons: it may be your kernel - if you can get to the grub selection menu, you may want to try an older kernel | 20:18 |
| excalibas | amenado: ok, ill check that file, what should i be looking for? im using wicd for networking can this be a problem? | 20:18 |
| jimbojw | soundray: nope - lsusb just shows my mouse | 20:18 |
| Christoz | Jack_Sparrow in feisty this wasn't happening that's why i'm not sure that is nothing wrong happens | 20:19 |
| soundray | Buzzons: boot in recovery mode (boot menu option) and run 'dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg', set the driver to vesa and accept defaults for the rest | 20:19 |
| amenado | excalibas-> something network related, if you can force it to go down instead of waiting for the status to get okay..not sure of wicd on how it turns off interfaces at shutdown event | 20:19 |
| genii | dwxreape1: The www-data user and group is a reserved system username and group to serve web content from. Why would you need to add this to some other group? | 20:19 |
| soundray | jimbojw: perhaps you have to enable bluetooth in the BIOS setup? | 20:19 |
| joe__ | How do I do a manual configuration for the internet? | 20:19 |
| jimbojw | that's possible soundray - i'll check it out - thanks! | 20:20 |
| soundray | joe__: via /etc/network/interfaces (man interfaces) | 20:20 |
| MrKeuner | I'd like to print using /usr/bin/lp how can I make it point to the default printer I set using Sytem/administartion/printing dialog? | 20:20 |
| Buzzons | soundray : trying the older one (3 are listed) trying the middle of the 3. | 20:20 |
| dwxreape1 | can i have a user assigned to more than one group | 20:20 |
| joe__ | soundray, I just got linux, so I'm not very familiar with them | 20:20 |
| excalibas | amenado: fi i open a session with clt+alt.F1 i can do a shutdown "manualy" but on my xsession everything is frozen... | 20:21 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Christoz, If you dont mind.. sudo apt-get install pastebinit && cat /etc/apt/sources.list | pastebinit (Provide Pastebin link in channel) | 20:21 |
| Buzzons | seems to be doing the same thing (not sure what an ubuntu boot looks like -- used to gentoo ones) | 20:21 |
| dwxreape1 | can i have a user assigned to more than one group | 20:21 |
| amenado | excalibas because shutdown command forces the process to be killed and wait only for so long.. | 20:21 |
| hwilde | dwxreape1, yes | 20:21 |
| soundray | dwxreape1: don't repeat please -- at this rate it's called spamming | 20:21 |
| genii | dwxreape1: You can make a user belong to any number of groups. But if you added for instance the www-data user to for instance the group which the default user belongs, any web application which can write to your web directory can also modify or delete files in that users area. | 20:22 |
| soundray | dwxreape1: 'sudo adduser username groupname' | 20:22 |
| TXX | constant spam here : / | 20:22 |
| amenado | joe_-> a nice tutorial on linux is in order for you, get yourself familiarize, if you had used dos before, some similarities.. | 20:22 |
| soundray | Buzzons: recovery mode! | 20:22 |
| genii | soundray: He wants for some reason to add user www-data to some other group | 20:22 |
| Jack_Sparrow | TXX, Please dont add to it | 20:22 |
| Buzzons | oo it booted teh 2nd one | 20:23 |
| Buzzons | so, what would the recovery mode do for the latest kernel? | 20:23 |
| sjovan | hey, how did you add trackers to a torrent in rTorrent? | 20:23 |
| dwxreape1 | soundray: already have the user, want to add the user to an additional grouop | 20:23 |
| TXX | lol, hehe anyways can someone help me get my internet adapters to work with wicd ? | 20:23 |
| dwxreape1 | so he can be a member of more than one group? | 20:23 |
| soundray | dwxreape1: 'sudo adduser username groupname' | 20:23 |
| dwxreape1 | .. | 20:23 |
| dwxreape1 | that's not what i asked, you just said that | 20:23 |
| soundray | dwxreape1: it's still the answer to your question | 20:23 |
| jimbojw | dwxreape1: you can call that command any number of times to any number of groups | 20:23 |
| Christoz | Jack_Sparrow all these in a line ...?except the apt-get ...what are the rest ...hope you don't mind for asking... | 20:23 |
| amenado | TXX the basic config file is still /etc/network/interfaces...what is the issue? | 20:24 |
| Buzzons | dwxreape1, to add the user to a new group you do adduser _username_ groupname | 20:24 |
| dwxreape1 | jimbojw: ok, that's the info i was looking for | 20:24 |
| InfoHunteR | hi , i think my ISP is Block TOR , how can i bypass it ? | 20:24 |
| Buzzons | even if the username already exists | 20:24 |
| soundray | dwxreape1: but listen to genii. I'm just giving you the answer with no intention to protect you from yourself. | 20:24 |
| Buzzons | you can block tor? | 20:24 |
| darkscript | anybody know how to do a wireles s-> ethernet bridge | 20:24 |
| brobostigon | Buzzons: freende blocks tor | 20:24 |
| TXX | ehm well i shifted the standard internet connection program with wicd, and wicd worked for like a week or something but now it just flashes the screen, even in terminal mode | 20:24 |
| pike_ | darkscript: firestarter may be your easiest bet | 20:24 |
| jimbojw | Buzzons: sites can block known tor exitpoints | 20:24 |
| jpatrick | brobostigon: no, it doesn't | 20:25 |
| soundray | darkscript: should be straightforward with firestarter | 20:25 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Christoz, that will install a cool utility, small and pastebin your sources list to a pastebin web-page and provide you with a link to give to users in the channel. It is not something that will run in the background or tie up resources | 20:25 |
| jpatrick | brobostigon: it even recommends tor | 20:25 |
| Buzzons | well yea, but there are always new tor endpoints appearing | 20:25 |
| brobostigon | jpatrick: it does, i have tried, | 20:25 |

| TXX | amenado "ehm well i shifted the standard internet connection program with wicd, and wicd worked for like a week or something but now it just flashes the screen, even in terminal mode" | 20:29 |
| amenado | Kumool-> easy... press tab twice in terminal and enjoy them by the thousands | 20:29 |

| amenado | TXX-> shifted? meaning? btw i have not use wicd yet... | 20:30 |
| Buzzons | in recovery mode it boots and says "waiting for root File system" | 20:30 |
| Buzzons | and doesn't get further | 20:30 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Christoz, how did you upgrade that system | 20:30 |
| Buzzons | lists a lot of stuff before that thoug | 20:30 |
| Christoz | Jack_Sparrow via internet | 20:31 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Christoz, Do you have system ... admin... software sources in your menus | 20:31 |

| TXX | amemado : O Haxor thanks! | 20:33 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Christoz, I only see two gutsy repos enabled, I am thinking you should enable all, apt-get update if nneded and reinstall firestarter or apt-get upgrade as well | 20:33 |
| amenado | TXX then use tools like ping, dig, iptables, | 20:33 |
| azuki | hi all | 20:33 |

| azuki | I wondered, I want to get a little deeper into linux... I like it... but would it fit my need to explore to install different osses (linux vers such as openSUSE and others) or is ubuntu sufficient and doesn't it change anything to look into that... | 20:34 |
| amenado | valberg i actually cant assist with sound, i dont have sound on my system.. :( | 20:34 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Christoz, Version 1.0.3-6 is the current version in gutsy.. what do you have installed? | 20:35 |
| soundray | !intelhda | valberg | 20:35 |
| ubotu | valberg: For fixing your Intel HDA sound this page has useful information https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto | 20:35 |
| Christoz | Jack_Sparrow so you thing that the problem is from where i'm downloading.. | 20:35 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Christoz, I am thinking it might be a missmatch.. of feisty and gutsy apps, and deps. | 20:35 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Christoz, I would enable all of the gutsy repos, update and upgrade and reinstall firestarter.. | 20:36 |
| stevendemorez | I'm getting an error on my webcam programs that I'd like to fix | 20:36 |
| Christoz | Jack_Sparrow that sound's awful..why should i download and use a prereleased program ? | 20:36 |
| stevendemorez | it's a "vdiocgchan invalid arg." error | 20:37 |
| soundray | Christoz: gutsy is long released | 20:37 |
| jms1989_xp | Yo, how would I make the xserver on ubuntu not start at boot time so that it goes directly to the the terminal? | 20:37 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Christoz, we are trying to fix, what appears to be a mismatch and is causing you unusual problems. | 20:37 |
| stevendemorez | and I was wondering if this could somehow be the root of my problems using the Gem externals in puredata and the seeming lack of v4l2 support within Gem? | 20:37 |
| azuki | I wondered, I want to get a little deeper into linux... I like it... but would it fit my need to explore to install different osses (linux vers such as openSUSE and others) or is ubuntu sufficient and doesn't it change anything to look into that... and ... is it a big deal for ubuntu to switch to openSUSE ? | 20:37 |
| Christoz | Jack_Sparrow well i thing reinstalling ubuntu is a better idea...i'll keep my home directory and ...everything is gonna be allright... | 20:39 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Christoz, DOnt enable proposed | 20:39 |
| JustinPrue | i have a question and i was wondering if anyone could help me out | 20:39 |
| PeterGriffin | i have a simple question: How can you resize an ext3 partition ? | 20:39 |
| soundray | PeterGriffin: use gparted | 20:39 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Christoz, Clean fresh installs take care of most issues. I just dont think you need to do it. | 20:39 |
| PeterGriffin | soundray have you tried that methon of resizing ? | 20:39 |
| PeterGriffin | method* | 20:40 |
| soundray | PeterGriffin: yes, with good results | 20:40 |
| PeterGriffin | great, is it cli, or with a gui ? | 20:40 |
| soundray | PeterGriffin: the cli version is parted | 20:40 |
| Jack_Sparrow | PeterGriffin, Yes, but you cant resize a mounted partition.. as in one you are currently using | 20:40 |
| soundray | PeterGriffin: best to boot a live CD and run it on an unmounted hard disk | 20:40 |
| Jack_Sparrow | agreed | 20:40 |
| PeterGriffin | soundray,Jack_Sparrow of course i have a live ubuntu disc, and i will install gparted and try to resize it! thanks a lot | 20:41 |
| amenado | PeterGriffin-> and may I suggest making a copy of important files before doing this | 20:41 |
| JustinPrue | Im dual booting ubuntu and vista and i deleted some files off the mounted OS. I noticed that the files appear to be deleted but the Free Space remained the same. | 20:41 |
| Jack_Sparrow | PeterGriffin, gparted will already be on the live cd | 20:41 |
| soundray | PeterGriffin: it should be on the live CD already, no need to install | 20:41 |
| Freeman163 | JustinPrue, did you check the trash can? | 20:42 |
| JustinPrue | how do i actually delete files off the mounted OS? | 20:42 |
| JustinPrue | yeah i did | 20:42 |
| Jack_Sparrow | JustinPrue, look in .Trash you may have deleted them as root user | 20:42 |
| JustinPrue | nothing there | 20:42 |
| PeterGriffin | soundray , Jack_Sparrow ok great ! thanks alot | 20:42 |
| JustinPrue | alright | 20:42 |
| Jack_Sparrow | np | 20:42 |
| a | hii | 20:42 |
| PeterGriffin | amenado, have you had a bad experience regarding resizing ext3 partition ? | 20:42 |
| mrpoundsign | is there a tool for ubuntu server that will email the admin about out-of-date packages? | 20:42 |
| Jack_Sparrow | JustinPrue, on a wiondows drive it may be .Trash-yourusername | 20:42 |
| troxor | the default hardy wallpaper is cool, but it looks like someone slit the heron's throat | 20:42 |
| amenado | PeterGriffin-> nope, am just getting assurance just in case... | 20:43 |
| amenado | err insurance.. | 20:43 |
| Christoz | Jack_Sparrow ok thank you for your time jack...you pirate! | 20:43 |

| albabe | join #ubuntu-fr | 20:47 |
| Jack_Sparrow | suicidepills, are you planning on using effects and watching videos online? | 20:48 |
| PeterGriffin | ok, ubuntu livecd is booted, i actually want to resize it to make it smaller and create unallocated space | 20:48 |
| genii | jms1989_xp: Remove the login manager. Usually on stock ubuntu this is gdm | 20:48 |
| suicidepills | Jack, yeah | 20:48 |
| kolorartists | yesterday i installed a cracked (illegal) copy of GOBUNTU - and now i get a dialog on windows bootup telling me that I should "fuck myself". any advice or help for me? :( | 20:48 |
| tomvolek__ | starnesstommy, I am on Xchar gnome on Ubuntu | 20:48 |
| Jack_Sparrow | PeterGriffin, I sould also let you know you will have a uuid issue that weill need to be fixed once you resize that.. | 20:48 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !uuid | PeterGriffin | 20:48 |
| ubotu | PeterGriffin: To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell: « sudo blkid » (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID) | 20:48 |
| Stoffer_ | evening | 20:48 |
| jeffMASTERflex | jms1989_xp: you have to change the default runlevel | 20:49 |
| Freeman163 | gobuntu? | 20:49 |
| kolorartists | yes | 20:49 |
| jms1989_xp | genii: Can't I just disable it but still be able to use it if I need it? | 20:49 |
| PeterGriffin | ok Jack_Sparrow , do i have to put it in fstab the correct uuid after resizing ? | 20:49 |
| genii | kolorartists: Since there are no "cracked" or illegal copies of gobuntu since it's principle is open-source, I'd say you installed some virus | 20:49 |
| ompaul | genii, see my answer | 20:49 |
| Jack_Sparrow | :) | 20:49 |
| Freeman163 | also, gobuntu being an operating system, it isnt something one could install on windows... | 20:50 |
| suicidepills | @Jack_Sparrow - yes I plan on using effects and watching videos online | 20:50 |

| xtknight | what's the channel for the ubuntu mozilla team? i think thre was a special dev channel | 20:50 |
| jeffMASTERflex | jms1989_xp: change your runlevel at boot from 5 to 3 | 20:50 |
| Jack_Sparrow | suicidepills, then you will need to use fglrx ... | 20:50 |
| azuki | is there an easy way to change the ubuntu install to opensuse? | 20:50 |
| suicidepills | I have it installed | 20:50 |
| jms1989_xp | How? | 20:51 |
| xtknight | nevermind it was #ubuntu-mozillateam | 20:51 |
| erUSUL | azuki: replace ubuntu with opensuse? | 20:51 |
| genii | jms1989_xp: Just make /etc/init.d/gdm non-executable then | 20:51 |
| Jack_Sparrow | suicidepills, what model again? | 20:51 |
| suicidepills | Radeon 9800 SE | 20:51 |
| Jack_Sparrow | 9950 down are different | 20:52 |
| erUSUL | azuki: just launch the suse installer and nuke the ubuntu partitions | 20:52 |
| suicidepills | How so? | 20:52 |
| erUSUL | suicidepills: they have opensource drivers (radeon) | 20:52 |
| PeterGriffin | hmm, gparted seems to take awfully long at "Scanning all devices", or maybe im just impatient :) | 20:52 |
| jms1989_xp | genii: Then I would have to chmod it to use it again. | 20:53 |
| genii | jms1989_xp: Yup | 20:53 |
| suicidepills | Don't the new proprietary drivers support older cards? | 20:53 |
| Devourer | How can I let another program have access to my soundcard instead of another? | 20:53 |
| suicidepills | I have 8.42.3 installed | 20:53 |
| Jack_Sparrow | suicidepills, from what I know.. you need to remove Xorg-driver-FGLRX .... and install ... libgl1-mesa-glx ... fglrxinfo should show not installed | 20:53 |
| Jack_Sparrow | suicidepills, I also show that you should install xserver-xorg-video-all | 20:54 |
| genii | ompaul: I scrolled up but did not see your reply that you referred me to | 20:54 |
| jms1989_xp | ok. I'll just make some scripts to take care of the chmodding. | 20:54 |
| Stoffer_ | just installed ubuntu for the first time, and im having problems with the desktop resolution, i only have 640X480 but if i check xorg.conf then i should have up to 1024 | 20:54 |

| jms1989_xp | thanks | 21:21 |
| erUSUL | leeping2008: 2.6.22-15 does not exist afaics (untill they release it) | 21:21 |
| leeping2008 | erUSUL, does that mean I need to build a deb file with make-kpkg? | 21:21 |
| leeping2008 | It's very important that I have it. My network driver is incompatible with the current kernel | 21:22 |
| PeterGriffin | leeping2008: you can download the source and compile you're kernel | 21:22 |
| brazil_nut | hello if somebody can please tell me the command to register the user name with the password | 21:22 |
| leeping2008 | PeterGriffin, I'll try that. Thanks :) | 21:22 |

| Starnestommy | brazil_nut: http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#nicksetup | 21:23 |
| PeterGriffin | leeping2008: but serious, it isn;t that hard. you can take all your old settings from youre current kernel | 21:23 |
| erUSUL | leeping2008: there are no sources for 2.6.22-15 either. kernel.org 2.6.22.15 or 16 or whatever is *not* the same as 2.6.22-15 ubuntu release | 21:23 |
| leeping2008 | erUSUL, it's true that there are no source,s I was thinking of downloading the kernel source from kernel.org | 21:24 |
| mneptok | leeping2008: upgrade to Hardy. it has 2.6.24-11 | 21:24 |
| leeping2008 | mneptok, doesn't Hardy have stability issues? I think it also uses different versions of libc.. | 21:25 |
| erUSUL | leeping2008: well keep in mind that ubuntu kernel includes a lot of external device drivers so check if your hardware is supported by vanilla (kernel.org) releases | 21:25 |
| jeffMASTERflex | leeping2008: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile | 21:26 |
| erUSUL | leeping2008: you can try to install just the kernel deb from hardy (packages.ubuntu.com) | 21:26 |
| leeping2008 | erUSUL, that's what I did previously. I'm getting very strange problems with the Hardy kernel | 21:26 |
| leeping2008 | jeffMASTERflex, I've been reading that tutorial :) thanks | 21:27 |
| leeping2008 | erUSUL, a computational chemistry program that I use will crash randomly on the Hardy kernel. I'd rather stay closer to 2.6.22-14 if I could | 21:29 |
| erUSUL | leeping2008: what do you need that the current gutsy kernel does not provide? | 21:29 |
| zocky | hi | 21:29 |
| cdeszaq | what is the command to display all users? | 21:30 |
| zocky | anybody know an editor (in terminal) in which shift+arrow keys, ctrl+c and ctrl+v work like in gedit? | 21:30 |
| leeping2008 | erUSUL, I'm running an AMD64 system with 8GB of RAM. The Attansic L1 network driver with pre-2.6.22.15 kernels will cause kernel panics in this configuration | 21:30 |
| StucKman | cdeszaq: there's no specific command | 21:30 |
| Reaby_ | cdeszaq: try w | 21:30 |
| StucKman | Reaby_: that's logged in users | 21:31 |
| cdeszaq | what is the file that contains info for all users on a system? | 21:31 |
| Reaby_ | StucKman: true | 21:31 |
| cdeszaq | not logged in users...all users | 21:31 |
| StucKman | cdeszaq: /etc/passwd | 21:31 |
| cdeszaq | thanks | 21:31 |
| erUSUL | leeping2008: well if you have that iron maybe it is time to learn how to build and roll your own kernels ;P | 21:32 |
| StucKman | but those are *local* users | 21:32 |
| cdeszaq | yeah | 21:32 |
| leeping2008 | erUSUL, the 8GB systems that I'm describing are part of a Beowulf cluster; the master node uses the 2.6.22.14 kernel. Programs compiled on the master node are served via NFS to the slave nodes, but since they're compiled using 2.6.22-14 I suspect they're crashing on the systems that are running 2.6.24-8 | 21:32 |
| cdeszaq | I am installing bugzilla 3.0.x from the tarbal | 21:32 |
| leeping2008 | erUSUL, I guess that's what I gotta do. :) | 21:32 |
| StucKman | cdeszaq: are there no packages? | 21:32 |
| cdeszaq | there is, but for 2.2 something | 21:33 |

| erUSUL | leeping2008: good luck | 21:34 |
| leeping2008 | erUSUL, in case my hardware is not supported by the vanilla kernel, I'll rebuild the restricted modules package as well. Thanks :) | 21:34 |
| StucKman | cdeszaq: I think is has to have +x | 21:35 |
| StucKman | jms1989_xp: why did you chmod'ed it so? | 21:35 |
| leeping2008 | I have one more question. :) How do I see if my hardware depends on drivers provided by l-r-m? | 21:35 |
| jms1989_xp | To prevent it from executing. | 21:36 |
| stroyan | darksky0: That depends on how you screwed up the install. "sudo dpkg --purge packagename" will remove a package and all of its configuration files. But if dpkg is 'confused' then you get into the bonus round. | 21:37 |

| tsairox | any ideas? i have googled all day | 21:38 |
| PF|WSTP | tsairox, install nvidia-settings and run it as sudo or root. then have it detect the second monitor | 21:38 |
| lufis | Is there someway to easily transfer a bunch of files from one unnetworked computer to another via usb/ethernet? | 21:39 |
| ArthurArchnix | Tamale: They use different rendering methods | 21:39 |
| darksky0 | me not like bonus round lol, packagename might be = "mysql" ? | 21:39 |
| Tamale | ArthurArchnix: How can I get them to use more similar methods | 21:39 |
| jms1989_xp | StucKman: To prevent it from executing. | 21:39 |
| tsairox | PF|WSTP apt-get install nvidia-settings? | 21:40 |
| PF|WSTP | tsairox yes | 21:40 |
| tsairox | i will try now | 21:40 |
| leeping2008 | Okay, an easier question: Is there any sort of future release schedule for Ubuntu updates? I'd like to see when the kernel gets updated. :) | 21:42 |
| PF|WSTP | Next kernel comes out with Hardy, if that's what you're asking | 21:42 |
| leeping2008 | PF|WSTP, you're saying that the Gutsy kernel will no longer be updated? | 21:42 |
| PF|WSTP | leeping2008, no idea | 21:43 |
| ArthurArchnix | Tamale: become a Linux developer, reverse engineer microsoft font rendering, violate their patents and write your own version for linux... :P | 21:43 |
| PF|WSTP | I just know that a new kernel is being released with Hardy | 21:43 |
| leeping2008 | PF|WSTP, thanks. | 21:43 |
| Tamale | woot i'll get right on that | 21:43 |
| Jowi | leeping2008, there will be updates whenever there's a security fix. hard to schedule those. | 21:43 |
| ArthurArchnix | Tamale: Until then, best you can do is play with the font settings. | 21:44 |
| ArthurArchnix | Tamale: Know where those are? | 21:44 |
| Tamale | kind of, | 21:44 |
| tsairox | PF|WSTP : so now that i have nvidia-settings installed, how do i get it to detect the second monitor? | 21:44 |
| Tamale | but i can never get it settings i like. | 21:44 |
| erUSUL | leeping2008: on stable release only a serious bug or exploit can make ubuntu devs release a new kernel | 21:44 |
| PF|WSTP | tsairox hit the detect button | 21:44 |
| leeping2008 | Jowi, there aren't kernel versions newer than 2.6.22-14 available for gutsy, not even beta versions? | 21:44 |
| leeping2008 | I looked into recompiling the linux-restricted-modules and it's a pain compared to simply compiling the vanilla kernel | 21:45 |
| bluefox83 | leeping2008, you can always compile your own | 21:45 |
| ArthurArchnix | Tamale: Right click on desktop, click change desktop, click fonts tab, click details. Play with the various settings. You won't hurt your system. Perhaps you'll stumble across a setting that looks better to you. | 21:45 |
| PF|WSTP | tsairox, Im on a windows machine right now or else id look exactly where it's at | 21:45 |
| Jowi | leeping2008, no idea. I use Feisty until Hardy looks stable enough for me. | 21:45 |
| ArthurArchnix | Also, using fonts designed for Linux will look better than fonts designed for Windows or Macs. | 21:46 |
| Tamale | ArthurArchnix: I've tried all that.. I just want a good looking arial / helvetica | 21:46 |
| ArthurArchnix | Windows fonts. | 21:46 |
| tony_ | Does anyone know how to get a CBT Nuggets to work with Ubuntu? | 21:46 |
| Tamale | ArthurArchnix: I don't care what OS they're for, websites i like code for them :\ | 21:46 |
| ArthurArchnix | Tamale: you can try reconfiguring your font-config...then... | 21:46 |
| mneptok | there's a great idea. | 21:46 |
| mneptok | Tamale: sudo apt-get install msttcorefonts | 21:47 |
| tsairox | PF|WSTP: so i hit the detect button and the 2nd monitor still does not come on. What else could be the problem? | 21:47 |
| PF|WSTP | I use Vista's SegoeUI on my Ubuntu machine | 21:47 |
| Tamale | mneptok: I have the fonts, they just don't look right. | 21:47 |
| PF|WSTP | tsairox I would look for you but I cant :-/ | 21:47 |
| Tamale | mneptok: Gmail in particular looks really bad :| | 21:47 |
| PF|WSTP | Original nickname there | 21:48 |
| me | thnx | 21:48 |
| mike__ | hey does any one kno how to install wolfinstine enemy terrortory? | 21:48 |
| tsairox | PF|WSTP: it sees the 2nd monitor but won't turn it on | 21:48 |
| jms1989_xp | Hello | 21:48 |
| ArthurArchnix | Tamale: here's the command... I suggest you do some reading about the settings before experimenting. sudo dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig-config | 21:48 |
| PF|WSTP | tsairox, checked cables? | 21:48 |
| ArthurArchnix | It's possible to change settings to optimize for windows fonts | 21:48 |
| mneptok | Tamale: did you turn on subpixel smoothing (if you're using an LCD)? | 21:49 |
| tsairox | PF|WSTP; yes. i had it working like 4 hours ago and like an idiot i did not back up that particular xorg file. | 21:49 |
| ArthurArchnix | Tamale: if you download mac4lin package from sourceforge, they have some instructions and recommendations on how to configure fonts. You'll find them in the fonts folder. | 21:49 |
| leeping2008 | bluefox83, I would like to compile my own, but I haven't found a way to effortlessly incorporate the restricted modules :) | 21:49 |
| PF|WSTP | tsairox, try save the xorg now, after you hit the detect button | 21:49 |
| K-Yo | Hi again | 21:50 |
| tsairox | PF|WSTP: ok | 21:50 |
| Tamale | mneptok: it's not the smoothing that's different | 21:50 |
| Tamale | mneptok: it's the actual font shapes | 21:50 |
| PF|WSTP | tsairox, it shouldnt need to but you might have to logout and back in | 21:50 |

| PF|WSTP | mandana, are you on X or console? | 21:51 |
| mandana | Starnestommy: how? | 21:51 |
| Starnestommy | mandana: do you have a user account that is not root? | 21:51 |
| azargled | should I use asoundconf, and with what parameter? | 21:52 |
| mandana | Starnestommy: no | 21:52 |
| PF|WSTP | mandana, sounds like you have a problem | 21:52 |
| PF|WSTP | mandana, i dont think there's anything you can do | 21:52 |
| Starnestommy | mandana: try to go into the recovery console to fix it. If that fails, you might have to reinstall | 21:52 |
| Jowi | mandana, boot into recover mode (single user mode) and set new passwd | 21:52 |
| PF|WSTP | Guys, he doesnt know the root password, so he wont be able to get to the recovery console | 21:53 |
| mandana | Starnestommy,Jowi: how to do it? how to go to recovery mode? | 21:53 |
| Starnestommy | mandana: reboot and select it at the boot prompt | 21:53 |
| PF|WSTP | mandana, if you had a root password set, you wont be able to get into the recovery console | 21:53 |
| Jowi | mandana, reboot the machine. press ESC if needed before the OS boots. select Recovery mode/single user mode. | 21:53 |
| Tamale | my main complaint is that fonts don't render the same way in firefox as they do in other applications. why is that? | 21:53 |
| Tamale | i think bitstream vera sans looks great in pidgin.. but awful in gmail. | 21:54 |
| PF|WSTP | mandana, the recovery console boots straight into the root account if you dont have a password on it and if you do, you have to input the root password in order to use the console | 21:54 |

| PF|WSTP | lufis, two ubuntu computers? | 21:57 |
| lufis | yup | 21:57 |
| PF|WSTP | lufis, you could use ftp | 21:57 |
| stroyan | darksky0: You can run "dpkg -l | grep mysql" to see the many mysql packages that are installed. | 21:57 |

| PF|WSTP | lufis, sudo apt-get install proftpd | 21:57 |
| lufis | PF|WSTP: set up a server on one? | 21:57 |
| PF|WSTP | lufis, yeah | 21:57 |
| test01 | good idea jowi, i'll restart it and check -- i was wondering if i should rip open the laptop and see if i could disconnect the cord that's hanging loose so it wouldn't assume the screen was still there, lol, but just disabling it if possible is probably better :D | 21:57 |
| lufis | PF|WSTP: well, would that work with them connected directly to each other, i.e., nic to nic? | 21:58 |

| mojo | Jowi, It appears to be working! My eyes must be tired I guess. I read that manpage twice and somehow missed that | 22:01 |
| Jowi | mandana, did you ever enable root on the machine at all? you do know that the "root" account is a bit special in ubuntu, no? if you know the username you usually use you can reset the password for that user in the recovery mode. | 22:01 |
| jpatrick | !noroot | 22:02 |

| fushorts | i have gutsy. got wine and guild wars going however it starts guild wars but does not show me anything, aka it plays the music and everything but i cant see the picture | 22:59 |
| ArthurArchnix | ross`: Make sure you've got the multiverse and universe repos enabled. Or just install ubuntu-restricted-extras | 22:59 |
| omar_ | hello guys | 22:59 |
| gregory__ | soneil: thanks, sadly the frontend doesnt turn up anything for aclocal . am i missing something? | 23:00 |
| newyorkerjj35 | whats the easiest way to install kiba dock? | 23:00 |
| gregory__ | Starnestommy: thank you | 23:00 |
| Computer|Nerd | zagabog, also, please no spaces in Computer|Nerd | 23:00 |
| ere4si | dabbill: in a terminal - blkid | 23:00 |

| Computer|Nerd | zagabog, no, I get too many returns | 23:00 |
| adrian__ | does anyone know why my sound gets kicked off once in a while? | 23:00 |

| Computer|Nerd | zagabog, do you mind if I PM you so I don't have to deal with the moving chat? | 23:01 |
| ArthurArchnix | ross`: I don't use it. | 23:01 |
| ross` | k.. | 23:01 |
| soneil | gregory__, interesting, I get the same. I found aclocal-1.10, but no obvious way to find that without already having it locally | 23:01 |
| zagabog | Computer|Nerd: no problem | 23:02 |
| mj | hello everyone, im a newb, can someone help me with Ubuntu display settings? | 23:02 |
| gregory__ | soneil: the frontend doesnt work correctly. substring aclocal will not be found. if you search for aclocal-1.9 it will give you automake1.9 as package. | 23:02 |
| soneil | gregory__, "search for (foo) within filename" on the "Sorry, your search gave no results" page gets you the right stuff, but it's not exactly obvious | 23:02 |
| tems | Hey guys - when installing Ubuntu on my vista system, do I need to create partitions prior to ubuntu installation? When I tried to let installer do it, I was told it couldn't resize my current main partition | 23:03 |

| gregory__ | soneil: yes, i am using computers since more then 10 years, this gui is nonsense | 23:04 |

| ArthurArchnix | tems: No.. just free up the space then let the ubuntu installer use the free space as it sees fit. | 23:06 |
| ArthurArchnix | Give it at least 7GB if you can spare it. | 23:06 |
| tems | ok - thanks arthur!!! | 23:06 |

| neuro_sys | is there a command like "pon" peculiar to Ubuntu? | 23:08 |
| neuro_sys | that might have to do with pppoe connection, btw. | 23:08 |

| Computer|Nerd | zagabog, or just right click my name and click something like private chat | 23:09 |
| ArthurArchnix | tems: yeah... it's control panel, then use the search box in top right and type partition, that should bring the partition manager to the front. | 23:09 |
| mj | okay cool, thanks. I am running an IBM thinkpad T42 that I upgraded to Ubuntu several weeks ago, and it has an S-Video port in the side. I am trying to hook it up to a television, and I cant get any output at all. I have displayconfig-gtk installed, but I can't see any settings other than resolution and refresh rate. I am a total Linux newb, so any help would be really appreciated. | 23:10 |
| tems | cheers - yeah - got it open. am shrinking my main partition to leave 15 gig for linux partition | 23:10 |
| tems | hopefully that will do the trick | 23:10 |
| ArthurArchnix | tems: and then some. | 23:10 |
| Computer|Nerd | zagabog did you see my response?? | 23:11 |
| tems | Arthur: Is "Unallocated" space all that Ubuntu needs, or should I format it? | 23:11 |
| Computer|Nerd | zagabog, it may be me erroring if you cannot see my response | 23:11 |
| ArthurArchnix | leave it unallocated. | 23:11 |
| ArthurArchnix | tems ^^ | 23:11 |
| Jahromeo | how do i install cedega | 23:11 |
| ArthurArchnix | tems: otherwise the ubuntu installer won't recognize it as "free" space and you can't use that option. | 23:11 |
| Positronic | you have to pay for cedega | 23:12 |
| Positronic | you can compile it yourself but it's a pain | 23:12 |

| Computer|Nerd | zagabog, I accepted | 23:12 |
| tems | Arthur: Thanks a million for your help. One question before I go...am using a laptop, and wireless adapter is switched on with a button on the computer itself. When I was in installer earlier it detected my adapter was unable to find network as it wasn't turned on. Can I ignore that for now and fix once system is installed? | 23:12 |

| mj | newyorkerjj: I am also new, but Amarok seems to be really good | 23:14 |
| newyorkerjj35 | thanks | 23:14 |
| Chese | oops... sorry, I should have been more specific. Feisty comes with Rythymbox, and Rythymbox adds the songs to the Ipod's drive, but the Ipod won't see the songs (Rythymbox won't generate a database for the Ipod) | 23:14 |
| Chese | I bought the Ipod about a month ago... so it's the newest model | 23:15 |
| ArthurArchnix | tems: Your wireless almost certainly uses a restricted driver. Those are generally easier to get going from an installed system. | 23:15 |
| mithraic | Here's to hoping that a Hardy Heron alpha install will have Xorg & xrandr versions that will allow me rotate my display... | 23:15 |
| ArthurArchnix | tems: Short answer yes. Long answer, yes with work. | 23:15 |
| Chese | and there doesn't seem to be an update for Rythymbox that addresses this | 23:15 |
| mithraic | though I have no particular reason to think that will be true. | 23:15 |
| Flannel | mithraic: #ubuntu+1 can tell you | 23:15 |
| Computer|Nerd | zagabog, you didn't join | 23:15 |

| cellofellow | where are notification-daemon's settings or library's kept? It still works in other user accounts so I think it's something to do with the configs. | 23:19 |
| spork969 | but I would prefer not to have to do it one by one. also, it would be nice to know how to do it for later use | 23:19 |

| IndyGunFreak | cellofellow: notification-daemon? you talking about the mail-notification applet in the system tray? | 23:20 |
| Chese | ok, better question. Is it necessary to upgrade to 7.10 before I can use Rhythmbox 0.11.2? | 23:20 |
| cellofellow | spork969: there's this bulk-rename program called Metamorphose I found on getdeb.net. | 23:20 |

| sushicucumber | im curious about the ln -s command. after reading on the net, ln -s file1 file2 creates a symbolic link from file2 to file1...my question: what exactly does this do? why would someone *want to make a symbolic link?? | 23:23 |
| tems | I got it for another file a few seconds earlier but I hit continue without noting the name. Should I just ignore these warnings? | 23:23 |
| Flannel | !repeat | snypzz | 23:23 |

| spork969 | ArthurArchnix: great, however, i would prefer to use scripting... =[... not a huge fan of installing apps just for a single use | 23:23 |
| Starnestommy | sushicucumber: so that if they try to go to file2, they'll get file1 | 23:23 |

| sushicucumber | why not just do cp file1 location2 ? | 23:24 |
| santookA | hey ppl | 23:24 |
| spork969 | snypzz: use VLC, it plays DVDs along with everything else | 23:24 |
| Ward1983 | mj, what kind of display settings? | 23:24 |
| Starnestommy | sushicucumber: because cp doesn't also copy changes to the files after it's done | 23:24 |
| ArthurArchnix | tems: Risky. Looks like you got a bad disk. I'd reboot and do a disk check. It's possible you'll be able to install. But then again, if you come to the grub part and there's problems with that part of the disk you could be left with an unbootable system :( | 23:24 |
| ArthurArchnix | tems probably not worth the risk | 23:24 |

| kris_ph | no.. I installed it using apt-get command | 23:26 |
| kris_ph | ubotu might be outdated.. :) | 23:27 |
| tems | Arthur - OK thanks for the advice | 23:27 |
| Ward1983 | mj, you need to check for TV out settings for your card, you can probably google them, and then try them, but ALLWAYS backup your original xorg.conf first, so you can replace it using the CLI, the graphics wont work with wrong xorg settings :) | 23:27 |
| Flannel | kris_ph: the python-django package? | 23:27 |
| tems | Might just install from Wubi to ensure no disk problems | 23:27 |
| kris_ph | Flannel: http://packages.ubuntu.com/gutsy/all/python-django/filelist | 23:27 |
| Flannel | kris_ph: p.u.c will give you a version number. Also, apt-cache policy python-django will as well. | 23:28 |
| Ward1983 | so make sure you know how to copy files using the CLI (and nano is a CLi based text editor you can use if you want to edit xorg.conf from CLI) | 23:28 |
| mj | Ward: This process sounds intimidating. So I should google for the correct configuration file, replace the existing one, and hope for the best? What do I do if everything goes to hell? | 23:28 |
| kris_ph | I just wonder why ubotu was telling lie :) | 23:28 |
| sushicucumber | thanks for the help on the ln -s command.. i guess i still dont get why you would need to make a symbolic link.. why not just go to file1 and open it there, instead of making a link from file2 back to file1? | 23:28 |

| ezeki3l | can someone recomend an unexpensive RAID card for Sata drives that work with ubuntu, preferebly that has some kind of BIOS layer for RAID opeartions and is independant of OS? | 23:29 |
| Flannel | mj: No. Don't do that. You'll need to install a driver that supports it. Whether thats the closed ATI one or the open aTI one, that's what you need to know. | 23:29 |
| Flannel | chaosrl: #ubuntu+1 for Hardy support, thanks. | 23:29 |
| chaosrl | Flannel, thanks! | 23:29 |
| Ward1983 | mj, make a backup and make sure you can replace and copy files using the CLI (a terminal) | 23:29 |
| kris_ph | !django | 23:29 |
| ubotu | django is a high level python web framework that encourages rapid development and clean, pragmatic design. - see http://www.djangoproject.com | 23:29 |

| Ward1983 | mj, still even then you can pop in the live cd and use it to replace your xorg with the backup or your original one | 23:30 |
| Ward1983 | mj, but that will only take longer | 23:30 |

| mj | flannel: how do I update drivers in Ubuntu? Is there an easy interface, or should I google search it? | 23:31 |
| Flannel | mj: I believe you'll need the proprietary driver to use TV-out | 23:31 |
| Ward1983 | mj, but look for a good TV out tutorial to read so you have a good idea what you're up against | 23:31 |

| Ward1983 | Flannel, oops wrong highlight sorry | 23:32 |
| krz | im currently migrating from windows. my only BIG concern are the software i am currently used to, such as ms word, ms power point, photoshop, illustrator. IM NOT WILLING to consider the alternatives for this: openoffice, gimp, inkscape. I DONT WANT to dual boot. so i am thinking of installing a VM (perhaps virtual box) and using the VM if and when i need to use these applications. will there be any problems with this approach? | 23:32 |
| Ward1983 | mj, correct | 23:32 |
| Flannel | Ward1983: no worries | 23:32 |
| ArthurArchnix | !ccsm | deuryte | 23:32 |

| cptcavern | remote control works on Ubuntu ???? | 23:36 |
| Gladiator | Hi there. I managed to get ubuntu up and running off the live CD by removing "Quiet" and "Splash" from the startup options and adding "noapic acpi=off", and install it. Now when I try to start it up off my HD, it gets stuck about... I dunno, 15% of the way loading. | 23:36 |
| ArthurArchnix | spork969: :) | 23:36 |
| Gladiator | Any way to fix that that anyone knows of? | 23:37 |
| Ward1983 | cpTanis, what kind of remote control? | 23:37 |
| crashhandler | Flannel^ i dont know...maybe remove all gnome desktop environment | 23:37 |
| Ward1983 | cpTanis, sorry wrong highlight :( | 23:37 |
| cptcavern | tv card | 23:37 |
| krz | minimec i used to use other linux distros in the past. linux was a big disgrace for the newbie back in the old days. so im wondering if this linux distro is up to par with "JUST WORKS" | 23:37 |
| Crisp1 | How do I fix my audio settings so that my USB Logitech webcam mic can record audio? So far, I could only get my desktop mic (not USB) to record. | 23:37 |
| Dr_willis | my hauppage remote works with my hauupage tv tuner. | 23:37 |
| Ward1983 | cptcavern, what kind of remote control? | 23:37 |
| Flannel | crashhandler: By removing gnome, you wont gain a whole lot of space on your HDD without affecting the gnome apps as well. | 23:37 |
| kris_ph | Flannel: you're right.. acco. to their official site it's 0.96.. sorry for the wrong info I got from somebody in their channel.. | 23:37 |
| santookA | thanx alot :D | 23:37 |
| santookA | ciao | 23:37 |
| untermensch | can i partition a hard drive without formatting it? | 23:37 |
| cptcavern | Ward1983 its a tv card receiver | 23:37 |
| krz | minimec im still guessing linux is still a disappointment for people who want things to just work | 23:37 |
| crashhandler | Flannel^ so just leave it there? | 23:37 |
| arcticpenguin380 | what kernel schedualr does ubuntu use? | 23:38 |
| Flannel | kris_ph: Well, even if it was, Ubuntu's versions are frozen per release, so its entirely likely that we're a few months behind. | 23:38 |
| Flannel | crashhandler: yep | 23:38 |
| Flannel | arcticpenguin380: the old one | 23:38 |
| Dr_willis | krz, i find windows often a dissapointment for people wanting things to 'just work' | 23:38 |
| Ward1983 | cptcavern, dunno, but you can build this tiny serial receiver that will work with any 38Khz modulated remote, with Lirc | 23:38 |
| kris_ph | Flannel: what do you think is the reason? | 23:38 |
| crashhandler | Flannel^ tq ..i thought it is wasting my hd space | 23:38 |
| arcticpenguin380 | whic one is that? | 23:38 |
| krz | Dr_willis you must be coming from a comp sci degree | 23:38 |
| arcticpenguin380 | is CFG the old one? | 23:38 |
| cptcavern | Ward1983 ok thanks for help. | 23:38 |
| Ward1983 | cptcavern, cost me less then 5euro in parts and even your 8 year old sister can solder it, its easy | 23:39 |
| minimec | krz: So my advice is... By a new Harddrive or some 2nd hand HD (20GB will do). You will like your Ubuntu and you don't risk to harm your productive system. | 23:39 |
| Ward1983 | no prob | 23:39 |
| Dr_willis | krz, not really. Im comming from being the guy the idiot relatives call to be their windows-tech-support. | 23:39 |
| Gladiator | Hi there. I managed to get ubuntu up and running off the live CD by removing "Quiet" and "Splash" from the startup options and adding "noapic acpi=off", and install it. Now when I try to start it up off my HD, it gets stuck about... I dunno, 15% of the way loading. | 23:39 |

| Dr_willis | krz, its amazing how many thing one can find goofy in windows.. | 23:39 |
| Flannel | crashhandler: Well, it's using it. I don't know about wasting. But yeah, unless youre streally strapped for space, its not worth the effort (unless you want to remove it all, and then just re-add the apps you want) | 23:39 |
| Ward1983 | Gladiator, no errors? | 23:39 |
| Gladiator | Nope | 23:39 |
| Ward1983 | damn | 23:39 |
| Flannel | Gladiator: Did you verify the CD? (check for defects?) | 23:39 |
| Gladiator | Just shows the loading bar with the Ubuntu logo above it, and gets stuck | 23:40 |
| Gladiator | Flannel: Yes | 23:40 |
| Dr_willis | krz, the main diff i see. is that with linux - you can dig in and debug check logs and try things,, with windows often you can only 'remove/reinstall software' and hope it starts working. | 23:40 |
| Gladiator | I have no idea what I'm really talking about, but I'm guessing it's related to the noapic acpi=off thing. | 23:40 |
| Ward1983 | you should be able to boot without the screen, so you can see what happens, but i dont recall how | 23:40 |
| krz | Dr_willis yea i agree, its typical, but most end-users dont have the time to type console commands or edit config files. i remember the days i spent just trying to get my first linux distro running | 23:40 |
| untermensch | is it neccessary to format a hard drive to partion it ? | 23:40 |

| Flannel | Gladiator: Alright, at the GRUB menu, hit 'e' and you can change the line (add parameters, etc) | 23:42 |
| Flannel | Gladiator: temporarily, of course, once you boot you'll want to make them permanent | 23:42 |

| untermensch | can i partition my drive without formatting it ? | 23:43 |
| Ward1983 | :s | 23:43 |
| Flannel | Gladiator: Edit /boot/grub/menu.lst (there's a line that starts with # kopt=, edit that one) then sudo update-grub (don't uncomment the kopt line, just edit it) | 23:43 |
| Dr_willis | untermensch, you can use gparted to resize existing partitions in many cases. | 23:43 |
| minimec | untermensch: no. | 23:43 |
| thedoom | quit | 23:44 |
| Gladiator | Ok, thank you Flannel. | 23:44 |
| thedoom | exit | 23:44 |
| untermensch | wow. that sucks] | 23:44 |

| JoCo_ | Hi! | 23:44 |
| shawn__ | con someone help me | 23:44 |
| minimec | untermensch: If you do a replacement of an ubuntu installation you can... | 23:44 |
| newyorkerjj35 | can someone help me to install kiba-dock?? | 23:44 |
| Ward1983 | untermensch, you can, Dr_willis is correct | 23:44 |
| jasbond | WHATS UP SHAWN? | 23:44 |
| untermensch | omg this is confusing | 23:44 |
| shawn__ | my xorg is set to use fglrx as my ati driver | 23:44 |
| untermensch | half of everyone says yes, everyone else says no... | 23:44 |
| Dr_willis | untermensch, Im thinking you are asking the question wrongly. If you want to install linux, You can resize an existing windows partition and free up space to an unallocated partition. Thus install linux to that. without loseing the windows data | 23:44 |
| shawn__ | but in restrictted drivers it syas im using the ati one | 23:45 |
| Dr_willis | untermensch, it pays to ask a VERY clear question. | 23:45 |
| lab^rat | jasbond: caps lock... | 23:45 |
| untermensch | ok! thank you | 23:45 |
| untermensch | that' what i wanted | 23:45 |
| DrIP | amenado: you arround? | 23:45 |
| zrajm | after doing "aptitude update" on two different machines I get different versions of the same program on doing install. Why is that? | 23:45 |
| untermensch | i have fuckdows, i want linux. but i don't wanna hose windows | 23:45 |
| MilitantPotato | fglrx is ATI's | 23:45 |
| Dr_willis | untermensch, formating = loseing data. , resizeing with gparted = not loseing data. but thats NOT formating. | 23:45 |
| Ward1983 | untermensch, you can for sure, but backup your data because it can occasionally go wrong (never went wrong with me so far though) | 23:45 |
| shawn__ | okay | 23:45 |
| shawn__ | but my 3d gl isnt workjing | 23:45 |
| Dr_willis | untermensch, the installer can auto-resize the partitions. read the install docs. | 23:45 |
| MilitantPotato | shawn | 23:45 |
| deuryte | Ward1983: here is what i have...compiz, ccsm, compiz-core, compiz-fuzion plugins extra, compiz-fuzion plugins main, compiz-gnome,compiz -plugins, / there is a picture on that site that shows a "cube" in the {middle} of the desktop, how do i do this?? | 23:45 |
| MilitantPotato | type fglrxinfo in console | 23:45 |
| untermensch | i did, but i got a diff partition window than it talks about | 23:45 |
| zrajm | how can I check which version of a package is the latest in ubuntu? | 23:45 |
| shawn__ | yes potatoe? | 23:45 |
| Dr_willis | untermensch, the 'best' way is to have linux on its own hard drive. | 23:45 |
| Flannel | zrajm: What versions and of which program? | 23:45 |
| Ward1983 | untermensch, lol you can pop in the cd and ubuntu cd will resize your partition ! | 23:46 |
| ArthurArchnix | Dr_willis: I might change that to say "resizing with gparted = *most likely* not losing data" | 23:46 |
| untermensch | yea i thought about buying an external drive just for linux | 23:46 |
| Dr_willis | untermensch, you may want to read up on how partitions work in linux and computers in general. :) | 23:46 |
| zrajm | Flannel, git-core, versions 1.4.4.4 and 1.4.4.2 | 23:46 |
| MilitantPotato | shawn__: and after that, do glxinfo | grep direct | 23:46 |
| Dr_willis | ArthurArchnix, this is why i alwyas use a 2nd hd. :) | 23:46 |
| shawn__ | as sudo? | 23:46 |
| Ward1983 | untermensch, just READ every step carefully and read a tutorial in advance so you know what to expect | 23:46 |
| MilitantPotato | nah | 23:46 |
| M4rotku | hello, can some1 tell me how to log in as the root user? | 23:46 |
| Ward1983 | untermensch, and backup your important files to make sure | 23:46 |
| shawn__ | ok | 23:46 |
| untermensch | yea i have a windows backup disks, i just don't wanna lose all the good stuff on my comp | 23:47 |
| MilitantPotato | 'fglrxinfo' and 'glxinfo | grep direct' | 23:47 |
| shawn__ | direct rendering: Yes thats what i got | 23:47 |
| MilitantPotato | @ shawn__ | 23:47 |
| shawn__ | direct rendering: Yes | 23:47 |
| MilitantPotato | what's fglrxinfo give you? | 23:47 |
| shawn__ | when i typed it | 23:47 |
| psyphen | M4rotku: Username should be root. or from a command prompt type in su and then the root password | 23:47 |
| Flannel | zrajm: Feisty has 1.4.4.2, not 1.4.4.4 do `apt-cache policy git-core` on the one with .4, see what repos it's using | 23:47 |
| MilitantPotato | shawn__: pastebin the results | 23:47 |
| shawn__ | OpenGL vendor string: ATI Technologies Inc. | 23:47 |
| shawn__ | OpenGL renderer string: Radeon X1300/X1550 Series | 23:47 |
| shawn__ | OpenGL version string: 2.0.6473 (8.37.6) | 23:47 |
| shawn__ | thats what i get | 23:47 |
| Flannel | psyphen, M4rotku: You don't login with the root user, it's locked. Use sudo instead. | 23:47 |
| MilitantPotato | ok, looks good | 23:47 |
| shawn__ | so | 23:48 |
| shawn__ | how can i test it | 23:48 |
| Flannel | !paste | shawn__ | 23:48 |
| ubotu | shawn__: 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) | 23:48 |
| newyorkerjj35 | in terminal i typed in "sudo apt-get install kiba-dock" and it says "couldnt find package kiba-dock"..what do i do from here?? is this bcause i havent properly downloaded kiba dock?? | 23:48 |
| shawn__ | srry | 23:48 |
| MilitantPotato | you'll need XGL to use compiz fusion with those drivers shawn__ | 23:48 |
| Dr_willis | untermensch, lets just say that even without messing with linux. Your windows data is at risk.. the HD could fail at any time.. even now.. it pays to have backups of your good data. | 23:48 |
| M4rotku | Flannel, I need to edit a folder that is under Root's permission | 23:48 |
| Starnestommy | M4rotku: use sudo | 23:48 |
| zrajm | Flannel, one machine runs feisty, the other etch | 23:48 |
| Flannel | M4rotku: right. Use sudo instead. "sudo [whatever]" | 23:48 |
| Dr_willis | untermensch, ive been seeing a lot of HD's dieing this week at work... | 23:48 |
| shawn__ | were can i get xgl? | 23:48 |
| MilitantPotato | shawn__: you can compile the newest ATI drivers from source, I've got a good guide for that, if you want. | 23:48 |
| reinaldo | hi | 23:48 |
| MilitantPotato | shawn__: in synaptic, it's called xserver-xgl | 23:48 |
| M4rotku | is there a way to change the permissions of a directory within the terminal then? | 23:48 |
| zrajm | Flannel, etch = 1.4.4.2, etch = 1.4.4.4 | 23:48 |
| shawn__ | okay | 23:48 |
| Flannel | zrajm: ah! Well, that's your disrepency. One is using Ubuntu feisty, and the other one is using debian etch. | 23:48 |
| shawn__ | ive reied to edit my xorg | 23:49 |
| Flannel | M4rotku: What directory are you changing the permissions of? | 23:49 |
| shawn__ | and it always crashes | 23:49 |
| shawn__ | tried* | 23:49 |
| Flannel | newyorkerjj35: kiba-dock isn't in the Ubuntu repositories. | 23:49 |
| MilitantPotato | shawn__: fglrx is what ya want. | 23:49 |
| newyorkerjj35 | flannel what is the easiest way to install kiba-dock? | 23:49 |
| zrajm | Flannel, well according to the #git ppl both versions are ancient, how do I get up to speed? | 23:50 |
| MilitantPotato | shawn__: this is the guide I use for installing the latest ATI drivers http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=593348 | 23:50 |
| zrajm | Flannel, I already have done "aptitude update" on both machines | 23:50 |
| shawn__ | i have the newest drivers i think | 23:50 |
| shawn__ | before it didnt sya it supported open gl | 23:50 |
| MilitantPotato | shawn__: the ones in the repositories are old | 23:50 |
| shawn__ | i knwo | 23:50 |
| shawn__ | ive updated | 23:50 |
| Flannel | zrajm: Ubuntu freezes its versions of software (you stay with whatever version was released with feisty, except bugfixes), as does debian to some extent. Thats why you don't have the latest versions. | 23:50 |
| Ward1983 | is there some package i need to install to read DVDs burned by a mac? | 23:51 |
| shawn__ | to 8.2 | 23:51 |
| Flannel | zrajm: You can either use feisty-backports, or upgrade to Gutsy | 23:51 |
| MilitantPotato | shawn__: OpenGL version string: 2.1.7412 Release | 23:51 |
| MilitantPotato | those are the latest | 23:51 |
| kris_ph | what's the equivalent command for dir in ubuntu? | 23:51 |
| Ward1983 | kris_ph, ls | 23:51 |
| Flannel | kris_ph: ls (LiSt) | 23:51 |
| shawn__ | okay let me install that synaptic package | 23:51 |
| SiriusTux | ls -l | 23:51 |
| poseidon | I upgraded from 7.04 to 7.10 and now when I boot I get error 17: file not found, then it asks me to press any key to continue and it takes me to a screen which gives me the option to reboot or halt. | 23:51 |
| raidium | hey open i just saw your msg | 23:51 |
| kris_ph | thank you | 23:51 |
| zrajm | Flannel, ohkay. isn't an upgrade likely to break a system that's heavily tweaked? | 23:51 |

| Flannel | newyorkerjj35: I'm not sure, you'd hvae to find a third party repository that had it. | 23:51 |
| poseidon | I'm running linux alongside windows. | 23:51 |
| MilitantPotato | shawn__: follow that guide | 23:52 |
| Flannel | zrajm: Depends on how heavily, but with no additional information, sure. backports might be your best bet then. | 23:52 |
| Flannel | !backports | zrajm | 23:52 |
| ubotu | zrajm: If new updated Ubuntu packages are built for an application, then they may go into Ubuntu Backports. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports - See also !packaging | 23:52 |
| kris_ph | Dr_willis: m using server | 23:52 |
| mj | flannel: lol, ok, so I dont have XFree86. Can I make XFree86 drivers work in Xorg? Is Xfree86 used in KDE? | 23:52 |
| MilitantPotato | shawn__: if you follow that guide you won't need XGL | 23:52 |
| Flannel | mj: No. Why are you wondering about Xfree86? | 23:52 |
| Dr_willis | kris_ph, and you havent learned the shell basics yet? You got a lot of learning to do. | 23:52 |
| mithraic | Okay, so my Xorg still freezes up when I run xrandr -o left. My only recourse seems to be an alt-SysRq-K. | 23:52 |
| poseidon | Any advice? | 23:52 |
| zrajm | Flannel, what does "backports" mean exactly? That I run the latest version of one or two packages, but not the whole system? | 23:52 |
| mithraic | How should I go about gathering information about the problem? | 23:52 |
| shawn__ | i knwo but i alwasy crash | 23:52 |
| MilitantPotato | shawn__: some of the filenames will need changed, but otherwise it works perfectly for those I've helped through it before | 23:52 |
| shawn__ | im sure ive seen that guide | 23:52 |
| Ward1983 | mj, you just need to read the guide he gave you several times | 23:52 |
| mithraic | There's nothing in .Xsession-errors, which is the only place I know to look. | 23:52 |
| zrajm | Flannel, how do I do that? (links to docs?) | 23:52 |
| shawn__ | okay | 23:52 |
| smallfry | how do i transfer a video file from a ubuntu opereating system to a coby mp3 player? | 23:52 |
| smallfry | help!!!! | 23:53 |
| Dr_willis | kris_ph, there are text based web browsers also you can use to browse web sites/docs :) | 23:53 |
| shawn__ | ill take a look at ti but if tis the same im gonna have to stick with xgl | 23:53 |
| poseidon | What should I try to do? | 23:53 |
| Ward1983 | smallfry, talking like that wont get you help faster in here | 23:53 |
| Dr_willis | smallfry, you mean CONVERT a video to a playable format? or copy the allready compatiable video over? | 23:53 |
| Flannel | zrajm: yes. People have taken the time to compile newer versions against the older libraries (in hardy). Basically, the safest way is to manually odwnload the packages, and then install with gdebi. http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=git&searchon=names&suite=feisty-backports§ion=all | 23:53 |
| newyorkerjj35 | can anyone here guide me through the process to install kiba dock?? | 23:53 |
| smallfry | convert and transfer | 23:53 |
| Flannel | zrajm: although, alternatively, you can add the -backports source to your sources, and do it that way as well. | 23:54 |
| matt9000 | General question - my install is failing with 'Couldn't find task _____' ... tasksel: aptitutde failed (100)' during the installation step. Any thoughts on how to track that down? | 23:54 |
| Flannel | newyorkerjj35: I'm not sure, you'd hvae to find a third party repository that had it. | 23:54 |
| Ward1983 | smallfry, connect the mp3 player, and it should show up at locations -> computer | 23:54 |
| bluefox83 | smallfry, i dunno about yours, but i just plug mine in, and drag and drop the file... | 23:54 |
| mj | Ward: ok, I'll go read it now, sorry to ask questions that have already been answered | 23:54 |
| Ward1983 | smallfry, ALLWAYS do a safe disconnect though | 23:54 |
| zrajm | Flannel, would that force all packages to use backports, if I added it to sources? | 23:54 |
| SiriusTux | iwconfig says that my ap DWL-900AP+ is 802.11g, but this is not true how can I force wlan0 to work 802.11b? | 23:54 |
| Ward1983 | smallfry, if oyu dont youll loose data | 23:54 |
| mithraic | Answering my own question: /var/log/Xorg.0.log seems like a good place to poke | 23:54 |
| Dr_willis | smallfry, id say you need to google to see what kind ofr format the player needs, then perhaps use avidemux to convert to the proper format. | 23:54 |
| Flannel | zrajm: Not force, but that is the danger of doing so (updating to backports packages without realising), which is why we don't recommend it. | 23:54 |
| Dr_willis | smallfry, then you can mount the device as any other usb device, and copy the files over. | 23:55 |
| poseidon | How can I troubleshoot my boot error? | 23:55 |
| zrajm | Flannel, gotcha. might be better off checking out the code in question directly from the git repos and building it from source. | 23:55 |
| Ward1983 | mj, no problem, good luck | 23:55 |
| zrajm | Flannel, thanx for the info though. | 23:55 |
| Ward1983 | is there some package i need to install to read DVDs burned by a mac? | 23:55 |
| Ward1983 | anyone? | 23:55 |
| njenkins | just installed ubuntu | 23:55 |

| SiriusTux | anyone? | 23:56 |
| poseidon | Ward1983, Usually the os that burned it doesn't matter | 23:56 |
| ergyjean-baptist | welcome njenkins | 23:56 |
| matt9000 | ward, data dvds? iso? movie? | 23:56 |
| clearzen | Ward1983: it would depend on the type of dvd not the platform used to burn it | 23:56 |
| icesword | hello?good morning | 23:56 |
| njenkins | How do I find the loco teams irc rooms? | 23:56 |
| pros977 | Must resist urge to run out and spend $1000 on awesome computer hardware | 23:56 |
| pros977 | Must resist.... | 23:56 |
| Flannel | njenkins: Which team? | 23:56 |
| poseidon | ward1983, VLC maybe | 23:56 |
| njenkins | michigan | 23:56 |
| icesword | languauge | 23:56 |
| ergyjean-baptist | google it | 23:56 |
| Ward1983 | poseidon, i know but them damn things use some proprietary FS or something | 23:56 |
| njenkins | ok | 23:56 |
| Flannel | njenkins: #ubuntu-us-mi | 23:56 |
| Ward1983 | poseidon, now i just cant mount it | 23:56 |
| njenkins | thanks | 23:57 |
| poseidon | what did you burn? | 23:57 |
| LjL | ergyjean-baptist, "google it" is not an answer :) | 23:57 |
| Dr_willis | pros977, wait for that EEE desktop :) | 23:57 |
| Ward1983 | clearzen, i cant mount it | 23:57 |
| LjL | !channels > njenkins (njenkins, see the private message from Ubotu) | 23:57 |
| ergyjean-baptist | google is always the answe | 23:57 |
| njenkins | that's one handy bot! | 23:57 |
| Ward1983 | poseidon, i didnt burn it, a friend did, its video on there but not a video-dvd for in a standalone dvd player | 23:57 |
| Dr_willis | 'google it' is what you should be doing , while you are waiting in here for abn answer... | 23:57 |
| njenkins | there is another one for Spanish right? | 23:57 |
| clearzen | Ward1983: are you using sudo mount -o loop /path/to/dvd /path/to/mount | 23:57 |
| === ergyjean-baptist is now known as Jberg88 | ||
| LjL | ergyjean-baptist: maybe, yet this channel isn't just made by some bot repeating "google it" all the time, for some reason :) | 23:58 |
| pros977 | Dr_Willis the EEE looks neat | 23:58 |
| ArthurArchnix | 23:58 | |
| ubotu | google is the helpers' friend; many newer users dont have the google-fu yet; For GNU/Linux: http://google.com/linux | 23:58 |
| Ward1983 | clearzen, lol no i insert the cd and close my drive :p | 23:58 |
| LjL | njenkins: botijo, yes | 23:58 |
| narain | hi all, i was thinking about hacking on my gnome-panel for fun and wondering whether this would break ubuntu package updates. is this an appropriate channel to ask questions about that or is there some ubuntu-advanced channel i should go to? | 23:58 |
| ArthurArchnix | see... google is your friend.. not the questioners | 23:58 |
| Ward1983 | clearzen, then ubuntu tells me it cant be mounted | 23:58 |
| Dr_willis | pros977, yea. But the next generation of the laptop one. is more expensive then my last laptop. :( | 23:59 |
| clearzen | Ward1983: hang on | 23:59 |
