[00:00] <ibou> How know the version of the flac and metaflac installed on my system ?
[00:00] <ere4si> narain: if you do it with a .gtk-2.0 file in you're /home dir then it will be ok
[00:00] <starscalling> dpkg -l packagename
[00:00] <Ward1983> clearzen, sure thanx for looking into it
[00:00] <Dr_willis> narain,  'hacking' what exactly? You can find the source and recode whatever ya want. No hacking needed. :)
[00:00] <ArthurArchnix> ibou: aptitude show flac metaflac | grep Version
[00:00] <clearzen> Ward1983: goto applications>>accessories>>terminal
[00:01] <antz123> hi, I'm a little new to ubuntu so if you could bear with me, if I am to install Vista SP1 (I have dual boot), will that stop the grub bootloader from working?
[00:01] <Ward1983> clearzen, done
[00:01] <narain> ere4si: what does that do? (it's hard to google)
[00:01] <narain> Dr_willis: yes, i want to modify the source and recompile
[00:01] <narain> but will that break upgrades etc?
[00:01] <ArthurArchnix> antz123: Is vista and ubuntu already installed?
[00:01] <amenado> what tools there are on ubuntu for tutoring a high school kid with interactivity? other than giving the child a vnc access to your desktop?
[00:01] <narain> or will it get overwritten?
[00:01] <clearzen> Ward1983: sudo mkdir /media/mount/ && sudo mount -o loop /dev/dvd /media/mount
[00:01] <antz123> yes there are both installed
[00:01] <ibou> thanks
[00:02] <M4rotku> has any1 gotten Runescape to work on ubuntu?
[00:02] <clearzen> Ward1983: that should work
[00:02] <ere4si> narain: lets you set diff aspects of the desktop, panels,menus etc and will override any theme settings
[00:02] <LjL> amenado, not sure i've understood what you're after tbh
[00:02] <Ward1983> clearzen, i have 2 drives lol
[00:02] <ArthurArchnix> antz123: Most likely not. But Vista SP1 is still new and I haven't seen or heard much of ubuntu users upgrading.
[00:02] <ArthurArchnix> antz123: I want to do that myself though... has it been released through microsoft update yet?
[00:02] <Ward1983> clearzen, one didnt work will try the other now
[00:02] <Dr_willis> Im waiting for Ubuntu Service Pack 1
[00:03] <Jberg88> lol
[00:03] <antz123> ArtherArchnix: yes it was released today by microsoft
[00:03] <clearzen> Ward1983: which drive is it in? it's prob /dev/sda1 or /dev/sda2
[00:03] <alexman> anyone here use macmenu-applet?
[00:03] <amenado> LjL some app that me and a highschool kid can use if I tutor him online, some interactive colloboration, lets say you show him steps to solve a quaratic equation
[00:03] <Dr_willis> M4rotku,  thats the Java based MMORPG that runs in a browser?
[00:03] <Ward1983> clearzen, erm... those should be my harddisks...
[00:03]  * ArthurArchnix considers rebooting to see what kind of damage microsoft can do for him today
[00:03] <narain> ere4si: ah, i see. i don't suppose it would let me do things i'd expect to have to do by changing the source of gnome-panel itself?
[00:04] <alexman> can anyone help me get macmenu-applet?
[00:04] <M4rotku> Dr, yes, that's the one
[00:04] <clearzen> ward1983 what does mount command output. Put it in pastebin
[00:04] <Ward1983> clearzen, no medium found
[00:04] <antz123> ArtherArchnix: I won't install it for the moment, I will wait a bit until I'm sure it will be okay, I cannot afford to lose any files
[00:04] <clearzen> Ward1983: but you can see it on your mac?
[00:04] <Dr_willis> M4rotku,  i rember someone asking a few weeks ago, and it worked for me.. for the 10 min. i played it.
[00:04] <ere4si> narain: I know you can change the panel colour using it - what do you want to do?
[00:05] <Ward1983> clearzen, yes the files are on there for sure, i dont own a mac, its burned by a friend, i dont have access to a mac
[00:05] <DrIP> liniuz1
[00:05] <M4rotku> Dr, it's saying: Runescape was unable to find a suitable place to store its temporary files. To solve this please either:
[00:05] <njenkins> Thanks for the help all I asked about. I appreciate it. Now it's study time
[00:05] <Ward1983> clearzen, macs royally s*ck imo
[00:05] <DrIP> er wrong chan
[00:05] <clearzen> Ward1983: well, if it is telling you that I would suspect it is a failed burn
[00:06] <Ward1983> clearzen, but he can open it lol, on 2 macs even, a modern core2duop and his old ppc
[00:06] <clearzen> Ward1983: what kind of file is it?
[00:06] <clearzen> Ward1983: .iso or just data?
[00:06] <Dr_willis> Ward1983,  he may of used the HFS or HFS+ filesystem on the disk
[00:07] <Ward1983> clearzen, video, probably dv or avi, it should be jsut data, its meant as a backup
[00:07] <Ward1983> just a data backup
[00:07] <clearzen> Ward1983: one sec
[00:07] <narain> ere4si, Dr_willis: what i actually want to do is hack the gnome clock to make it show "fuzzy time" like the kde clock can. i don't see any way to do it other than hacking the source code. the only thing i'm concerned about is doing it in a way that's compatible with the apt package system, so that apt doesn't get confused by a changed binary and/or overwrite my changes.
[00:07] <Ward1983> (hes a VJ, me too, i got some of his content on DVDs to work with)
[00:07] <Ward1983> clearzen, sure
[00:08] <Ward1983> Dr_willis, sorry didnt read your sentence untill now
[00:08] <ere4si> narain: there are diff clock apps in synaptic
[00:08] <Ward1983> Dr_willis, any packages i can install that can handle HFS ?
[00:08] <Dr_willis> Ward1983,  Now im not sure how to TELL if he did that or not. there are hfs tools  you can use.
[00:08] <gaucho> Does qemu work if my guest operational system be ubuntu amd64?
[00:08] <gaucho> my host is amd64 too
[00:08] <Dr_willis> Ward1983,  I avoide macs like the plague. :0
[00:09] <gaucho> and what about if my host is a i386 machine?
[00:09] <Jberg88> oh come on
[00:09] <Ward1983> Dr_willis, me too, but some people think macs are better for some reason
[00:09] <Jberg88> macs are great
[00:09]  * Ward1983 pukes
[00:09] <Absinthe> they're ok
[00:09] <Jberg88> me
[00:09] <Absinthe> whats wrong with them?
[00:09] <clearzen> Ward1983: sudo mkdir /media/mount/ && sudo mount -o loop -t udf /dev/dvd /media/mount <--try that
[00:09]  * Ward1983 pukes again, twice as much
[00:09] <Ward1983> clearzen, ok
[00:10] <Absinthe> i bet youve never used one
[00:10] <Jberg88> See I don't bash on any OS
[00:10] <Ward1983> clearzen, no medium found, but it doesnt even look, it tells that in no time
[00:10] <DrIP> hi all, i just installed bittorent and it's not showing up in my menu...
[00:10] <Jberg88> I use them all
[00:10] <narain> ere4si: i don't think any of them does what i want
[00:11] <Ward1983> clearzen, how can i list my DVD drives so i know what they are in /dev ?
[00:11] <Jberg88> the beauty is you can make your own
[00:11] <clearzen> mount
[00:11] <minimec> DrIP: alt+f2 alacarte <-- Menu Editor
[00:11] <clearzen> or open /etc/fstab
[00:11] <clearzen> Mendi is still having sites blocked that she unchecked. Please go over her account and have the proper filters set for her account
[00:11] <DrIP> minimec: ahh thank you
[00:11] <clearzen> sorry
[00:12] <Dr_willis> Ward1983,  it should be /dev/dvd or /dev/cdrom  at least the links to those should be,
[00:12] <kris_ph> I want to remove django..I installed  it via apt-get.. is this the way to do it? sudo-apt remove --purge django?
[00:12] <poseidon> How can I install ubuntu 7.10 alongside windows
[00:12] <Ward1983> Dr_willis, i installed HFSplus but no success
[00:13] <smallfry> does avidemux convert only avi files or does it convert any other files as well?
[00:13] <narain> kris_ph: sudo apt-get remove django
[00:13] <clearzen> Ward1983: if that doesn't work editing fstab to include udf option and auto after the mountpoint then a restart would be my only suggestion
[00:13] <minimec> !dualboot > poseidon
[00:13] <kris_ph> narain: I want to remove  all of its traces.. like configurations..
[00:13] <Ward1983> clearzen, thats too much lol, thats for tomorrow :)
[00:14] <Dr_willis> Ward1983,  perhaps you need to read/use it properly just not install it.
[00:14] <awmcclain> Hi all. What commands to I need to combine in order to make useradd behave like adduser?
[00:14] <Kumool> minimec, where do u write that?
[00:14] <clearzen> Ward1983: I understand
[00:14] <Jack_Sparrow> !install | poseidon,
[00:14] <ubotu> poseidon,: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues - Don't want to use a CD? Try http://tinyurl.com/3exghs - See also !automate
[00:14] <minimec> Kumool: sorry?
[00:14] <Ward1983> clearzen, its 1.14 in the morning and i have a course tomorrow, and didnt sleep tonoght
[00:14] <Kumool> minimec, !dualboot?
[00:15]  * Ward1983 feels like an addict
[00:15] <Ward1983> time to roll a smoke :)
[00:15] <Kumool> u write it in the terminal on the live cd?
[00:15] <clearzen> Ward1983: it's because he burned it with software that uses udf I think
[00:15] <Ward1983> clearzen, in the end its because hes stupid and shouldnt be allowed near a computer :)
[00:16] <narain> kris_ph: then yes, 'sudo apt-get remove --purge django' should do it
[00:16] <smallfry> does avidemux convert only avi files or does it convert any other files as well?
[00:16] <Ward1983> clearzen, but ill remember it, so i can explain my problem better tomorrow
[00:16] <Ward1983> thanx
[00:16] <Kumool> minimec u write it in the terminal on the live cd?
[00:17] <minimec> Kumool: Well... I am talking to the bot. Example type /msg ubotu usb in your chat window. The 'bot' will send you some hints for USB. If you want to tell me that you type !usb > minimec
[00:17] <narain> kris_ph: or actually just 'sudo apt-get purge django'
[00:17] <ere4si> narain: just been reading - seems like you will have to do some c++ coding to get that
[00:17] <minimec> Kumool: I don't see your question ...
[00:18] <Kumool> nvm
[00:18] <Ward1983> Dr_willis, lol i forgot to mention something funny: i bought my current system second hand, very, very, very cheap from someone who was gonna buy a mac instead with about half the specs of this machine
[00:19] <stevendemorez> so where would one find necessary v4l2 headers for their particular kernel?
[00:19] <narain> ere4si: i know, i can do that. what i want to know is that when i do recompile my modified version and replace the original gnome-panel with my version, will it confuse apt when for example an update to gnome-panel comes out
[00:20] <ere4si> narain: if the update has a new gnome panel - it will replace the old and overwrite you're work
[00:20] <Dr_willis> Ward1983,  i find mac users are 'single taskers' they want a machine that runs the ONE program they want.. and thats it.  Linux users are 'generalists' who want stuff that can do it all... :)
[00:21] <jerbear> i have a class where a lot of the methods are doing a similar thing... namely: os.chdir(...); try:... finally: os.chdir(...)... i really only need the stuff within the try block. what are my options for simplifying this a bit?
[00:21] <soneil> Dr_willis, that'd be why I'm sitting here trying to get ubuntu+xen+macos going on an apple?  Generalizations never work out well ;)
[00:22] <Ward1983> Dr_willis, still its stupid to sell hardware twice as good and get some crap instead
[00:22] <jerbear> it would be nice to have a single method that does the os.chdir(), try/except stuff
[00:22] <Ward1983> Dr_willis, luckily for me though :D
[00:23] <bj0ng0> hi, i installed ubuntu 7.10 server 5sec ago, and when i run lshw it outputs that CPU 1: Disabled :|
[00:23] <icesword> hello,anyone has a look at this,http://pastebin.com/m249ac4ff,thx
[00:23] <bj0ng0> but it shows CPU info..hmmm
[00:23] <narain> ere4si: and i suppose there no nice way to handle that except to keep re-merging my changes with every update? i don't mind too much; i imagine what i'm trying to do is not a very common use case.
[00:24] <Dr_willis> Ward1983,  thers often a 100% markup on 'apple' hardware..    but i wont go on an apple rant.
[00:24] <icesword> ere4si, hello
[00:24] <pickles46> test
[00:24] <Ward1983> Dr_willis, clearzen thanx for the help, much appreciated, goodnight
[00:25] <Ward1983> Dr_willis, apple just sells hardware way too expensive, anyway goodnight
[00:25] <ere4si> narain: you can just add it to panels as an app from you're home folder - I do that with diif stuff I wrote
[00:25] <icesword> hello,anyone has a look at this,http://pastebin.com/m249ac4ff,thx
[00:25] <ere4si> hi icesword :)
[00:25] <smallfry> i hate my fuckin pc
[00:26] <Kumool> icesword, ... u kinda need to separate the link so that one can click on it
[00:26] <minimec> smallfry: Tomorrow is another day ... ;)
[00:26] <icesword> ok
[00:26] <Kumool> u kno like http://??? instead ofhttp://???
[00:26] <smallfry> ya totally minimec
[00:26] <icesword> http://pastebin.com/m249ac4ff
[00:26] <darksky0> what should I type in kernel to change file permissions?
[00:27] <Kumool> what the hell! why does smallfry get to say badwords and i get banned from saying wtf i mean i dont get it...
[00:27] <darksky0> I tried chmod ^^''
[00:27] <AlexHoover> Uh
[00:27] <narain> ere4si: ah that sounds like the perfect idea. why didn't i think of that?? :)
[00:27] <AlexHoover> For example, sudo chmod 777 /*
[00:27] <narain> ere4si: thanks!
[00:27] <ere4si> narain: np :)
[00:27] <darksky0> AlexHoover sudo chmod 777 filename?
[00:27] <AlexHoover> Yeah
[00:27] <smallfry> i dont know kumool i havent gotten a paragraph yet saying this is a swear safe chat
[00:28] <darksky0> AlexHoover i'm too newbie to do thing right :|
[00:28] <darksky0> AlexHoover cheers

[00:28] <Kumool> well it seems so but #Ubuntu-ES i got banned from sayin wtf... and it isnt even spanish so i just dont get it...
[00:28] <ere4si> icesword: looks like you need to increase the cache by that error
[00:28] <AlexHoover> This may be odd- but I installed Ubuntu 7 on a Dell PC, and I deleted my original SATA partition, and made 2 primaries (1 swap, 1 ext3) and Ubuntu installed fine and whatnot- however, I have to manually select the harddrive as the boot device every time I bootup. Why is this
[00:29] <WildChild7> hello there
[00:29] <icesword> ere4si, hmm.
[00:29] <WildChild7> how can I flush dns ?
[00:29] <shawn__> now my steam is crashing
[00:29] <WildChild7> anyone know how can I flush dns ?
[00:29] <ere4si> icesword: tells you to click the "other " tab
[00:30] <icesword> ere4si, thx
[00:30] <ere4si> k
[00:30] <Kumool> is there a way one can add other appz into the xfce-menu?
[00:30] <Dr_willis> AlexHoover,  perhaps the bootable flag needs to be set on one partition.
[00:31] <AlexHoover> Dr_willis: D'oh! I completely forgot about that. Thanks!
[00:32] <shawn__> how can i check to se if my 3d gl is working
[00:32] <Dr_willis> AlexHoover,  i dont recall ever needing todo that.. but it maybe some quirk with the bios
[00:32] <shawn__> in codes
[00:32] <AlexHoover> well, I manually edited the partition table so that's most likely why.
[00:32] <shawn__> anything to do with a popup window keeps crashing
[00:32] <shawn__> hello! can comebody help me
[00:33] <shawn__> somebody*
[00:33] <foibles> how do i add startup scripts to gnome?

[00:34] <clearzen> foibles: then the startup tab

[00:38] <Ademan> dos anyone know what the deal with envy is these days? I remember way back when it was totally unstable and borked many a machine (mine included), but I noticed ubotu's anti-envy warning has been softened up, and i've heard quite a few success stories lately, has envy become semi-accepted or what?
[00:38] <kyevan_LCD> jramsey, anything helpful there?
[00:38] <jramsey> kyevan_LCD, will check txs
[00:38] <Positronic> does anyone have any ideas on how to install a Linksys WPC11 on a command line installation of ubuntu with no internet connection?
[00:38] <ruskin> For anyone thats new to Ubuntu check out Ubuntu Ultimate 1.7, amazing Ubuntu distro with pretty much everything you would need  pre installed
[00:39] <kyevan_LCD> preinstalled /everything/?
[00:39] <Flannel> Ademan: The envy team (for envyNG, I believe), worked closely with the ubuntu devs to do stuff properly
[00:39] <kyevan_LCD> emacs, I hope, isn't. I only need one OS per partition, thanks :P
[00:39] <Flannel> kyevan_LCD, ruskin:  Ultimate Edition is a hack job, please don't recommend it here.
[00:39] <ronandi> Ademan: envy is working fine on my 8800 gts (G92) right now
[00:39] <Ademan> Flannel: awesome
[00:40] <kyevan_LCD> Flannel, I wasn't, I was just pokeing fun at him >_>
[00:40] <kyevan_LCD> And emacs
[00:40] <kyevan_LCD> (Emacs is great, but still fun to tease)
[00:40]  * Ademan coughs
[00:40] <ruskin> Hack or not it's great for getting people interested in Ubuntu
[00:40] <Flannel> kyevan_LCD: It was mostly directed at him.  And I share your os within os thinking.
[00:41] <Ademan> what was that quote? "emacs is a great operating system but its text editor sucks"
[00:41] <Ademan> lol
[00:41] <kyevan_LCD> the problem is evil hack jobs are, well, evil hack jobs
[00:41] <jc_> anyone having trouble printing to PDF? when I do nothing ends up in my pdf folder
[00:41] <kyevan_LCD> Besides, the ability to install easily is there with the apt system, anyway.
[00:42] <ArthurArchnix> you could probably get the same functionality of ultimate by installing ubuntu then running apt-get install * :P
[00:42] <yago> hi, how can I know the path of GNAT?
[00:42] <shawn__> none of those codes worked
[00:43] <ArthurArchnix> Ademan: emacs is a great operating system. The only thing it lacks is a text editor. Or something.
[00:43] <ArthurArchnix> !emacs

[00:43] <shawn__> arthur none of those codes worked
[00:43] <kyevan_LCD> Emacs actually does has a decent text editor!
[00:43] <shawn__> im trying to look at my open gl

[00:44] <stevendemorez> nvu was dope
[00:45] <tonyyarusso> kyevan_LCD: When Daniel Glazman abandoned it and Fabien Cazenave began developing a fork to keep the code alive.
[00:46] <Flannel> kyevan_LCD: It actually hasnt.  Nvu sort of turned into abandonware, and kompozer was taken up as a community fork (mostly just bugfixes) at first, and then grew from that
[00:46] <Positronic> does anyone have any ideas on how to install a Linksys WPC11 on a command line installation of ubuntu with no internet connection?

[00:47] <ubotu> Programming editors/suites: Terminal-based: vi/vim, emacs - KDE: Kate, KDevelop, Quanta+, Umbrello - GNOME: gvim, gedit, anjuta, eclipse, pida
[00:47] <kyevan_LCD> (It spits out a bunch of nicely-formatted static pages from markdown. handy tool, horrible, horrible hack)
[00:48] <CShadowRun> hmm, i think the updater is broken or something, i just installed ubuntu for the first time and straight away went for the updates
[00:48] <smallfry> you know what sucks
[00:48] <CShadowRun> a vaccum.
[00:48] <CShadowRun> and its spewing out hundreds of parser errors
[00:49] <smallfry> i cant make fun of my bro its so hard not to
[00:49] <Ademan> CShadowRun: can you make a paste of the errors? http://www.rafb.net/paste/
[00:49] <smallfry> no
[00:50] <CShadowRun> um i would do if i could figure out how to copy it lol
[00:50] <CShadowRun> it doesn't have a right click for copy and ctrl +c doesn't appear to work :p
[00:50] <Ademan> CShadowRun: lol, :-/.  well are the errors in that little black terminal or what?
[00:50] <soldats> CShadowRun: what client
[00:50] <insomninja> select and it's copied
[00:51] <insomninja> and then use mmb to paste
[00:51] <insomninja> (middle mouse button)
[00:51] <CShadowRun> oh yea, cool
[00:51] <CShadowRun> its in the updater thingy
[00:51] <CShadowRun> "Applying changes"
[00:52] <theseus> hey -- what is the best way to run something from every shell -- add to path or symbolic link in a existing directory in path?
[00:52] <theseus> basically i want to run /bin/sh "/home/tbbooher/netbeans-6.0.1/bin/netbeans" by typing netbeans6 at the command prompt
[00:53] <smallfry> cshacshadowrun you have to change the directory file from where it receives the updates from
[00:53] <soldats> theseus: you can make a bash alias for that i believe
[00:53] <jc_> anyone having trouble printing to PDF? when I do nothing ends up in my pdf folder
[00:53] <CShadowRun> http://rafb.net/p/Hgbz8d26.html
[00:53] <theseus> a bash alias
[00:53] <theseus> cool -- i'll look it up
[00:54] <CShadowRun> it spent a good 5 minutes putting out all that, it seems to have moved on now however
[00:54] <theseus> oh -- in my .bashrc file . . . got it
[00:54] <RoAkSoAx> !hardy
[00:54] <ubotu> 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
[00:55] <smallfry> did u change the directory
[00:55] <theseus> which .bashrc -- i have like 10 of them!
[00:55] <theseus> /etc/bash.bashrc maybe
[00:55] <CShadowRun> nope, i litrally just installed lol
[00:55] <theseus> or /root/.bashrc
[00:55] <insomninja> theseus, ~/.banshrc
[00:55] <CShadowRun> first time, switching over from windows :p
[00:55] <insomninja> theseus, ~/.bashrc
[00:55] <insomninja> -n
[00:55] <soldats> theseus: probly youcan do it globally in /etc/*bashrc*
[00:56] <Ademan> CShadowRun: lol, rather unlucky, well, does it look like the update is going to finish anyways?
[00:56] <soldats> but yea ~/.bashrc would be best
[00:56] <CShadowRun> yea it looks like its gonna work now
[00:56] <matteo> hi all
[00:56] <insomninja> hi
[00:56] <soldats> hello
[00:56] <Ademan> CShadowRun: good, lol, hope it works out, it sorta looked like it might
[00:57] <CShadowRun> :)
[00:57] <matteo> can anyone with a p1 or p2 make me a favor?
[00:58] <theseus> do i need to escape " in bash scripts like: alias netbeans6='/bin/sh \"/home/tbbooher/netbeans-6.0.1/bin/netbeans\"'
[00:58] <insomninja> p1/2? pentium I/II?
[00:58] <pros977> I am trying to join a channel, but freenode says I 'need to be identified.' --anyone?
[00:59] <slenentine> theseus: no
[00:59] <IndyGunFreak> !register | pros977
[00:59] <ubotu> pros977: By default, only registered users can send private messages - Information about registering your nickname: http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#userregistration - Type « /nick <nickname> » to select your nickname.
[00:59] <theseus> and i still get command not found
[00:59] <soldats> pros977: you need to register
[00:59] <pros977> ty
[00:59] <pros977> I didn't know the pipe worked on irc
[00:59] <smallfry> cshadowrun did u figure it out?
[00:59] <theseus> slenentine: no back ticking -- so 'this is "ok"'
[00:59] <demonspork> every time I boot into ubuntu, the time sets itself an hour ahead. I change it back to what it should be in the Adjust date and time menu, but the next time I boot it resets back to one hour in the future
[00:59] <IndyGunFreak> !identify | pros977 then you'll need to do this..
[00:59] <ubotu> pros977 then you'll need to do this..: You can identify automatically by using your NickServ password as the server password in your IRC client. When identifying manually, do NOT send the command from a channel's tab, or a typo may give away your password. If that happened, type « /msg NickServ set password <new-password> » in the server tab as soon as possible.
[00:59] <CShadowRun> smallfry well, the update appeared to work.
[01:00] <smallfry> ya
[01:00] <theseus> so do i need to restart bash or something to get the alias to work . . .
[01:00] <CShadowRun> i dunno what all those errors where about, but it seems to be alive still :P
[01:00] <slenentine> theseus:yes
[01:00] <soldats> theseus: i dont think so maybe "alias='/bin/sh /home/tbbooher/netbeans-6.0.1/bin/netbeans'
[01:00] <slenentine> theseus: alias netbeans6='/bin/sh /home/tbbooher/netbeans-6.0.1/bin/netbeans'
[01:01] <theseus> selenentine: thanks!
[01:01] <prince_jammys> that'll work, the path has no spaces. the quotes will also work
[01:01] <slenentine> np
[01:01] <smallfry> cshadowrun go to system, administration, software sources
[01:01] <ere4si> thunar is just hanging - it can't open any folder at all
[01:01] <theseus> o.k. so i have my alias -- but i can run it as sudo
[01:02] <theseus> (ah -- because my .bashrc is just for me!)
[01:02] <slenentine> roger that
[01:02] <slenentine> /root/.bashrc maybe
[01:02] <CShadowRun> smallfry yup
[01:02] <insomninja> ere4si, is it triggered by some special action or on every startup?
[01:03] <smallfry> is there a check mark beside the bottom where it says cd rom? cshadowrun
[01:03] <slenentine> theseus: or maybe alias netbeans6='sudo /bin/sh /home/tbbooher/netbeans-6.0.1/bin/netbeans'
[01:03] <ere4si> insomninja: just started playing up now
[01:03] <CShadowRun> smallfry yes
[01:03] <orudie> hey all, previousely someone here helped me in getting my static ip in ubuntu 7.10 server, how would i switch it back to dynamic ?
[01:03] <ere4si> insomninja: tryed from launcher, menu, cli
[01:04] <insomninja> ere4si, do you get any error messages when running in cli?
[01:04] <CShadowRun> Cdrom with ubuntu 7.10 "Gutsy Gibbon" | Officially supported | Restricted copyright (ticked)
[01:04] <kindofabuzz> anyone know why my screnlets disappear when i reboot?
[01:04] <ere4si> insomninja: nope...
[01:04] <slenentine> orudie: edit /etc/network/interfaces
[01:04] <ere4si> insomninja: it doesn't show in top either
[01:04] <insomninja> ere4si, does the last parts of dmesg show something odd?
[01:04] <ere4si> insomninja: I'll look
[01:05] <insomninja> kindofabuzz, are you running them automatically on startup
[01:05] <smallfry> cshadowrun unclick it if its clicked if its unclicked leave it
[01:05] <insomninja> ?
[01:05] <kindofabuzz> i guess i'm not
[01:05] <CShadowRun> kk, unticked it.
[01:05] <kindofabuzz> add to startup?  what's the command?
[01:06] <jacktheripper> me very humbly breaks in and requests "fast access dsl" help. pm please
[01:06] <smallfry> cshadowrun unclick it and it will download updates from the internet when you use update manager.
[01:06] <Jberg88__> ahhhh how do i reset freenode to my username
[01:06] <minimec> kindofabuzz: verify if screenlets are loaded in your gnome-session'
[01:07] <CShadowRun> smallfry ok done, thanks :)
[01:07] <insomninja> kindofabuzz, not on gnome, right now but on the settings panel there should be a 'sessions' entry, with a tab where you can set which programs run at startup
[01:07] <smallfry> cshadowrun go back into update manager and check for anymore updates
[01:07] <ere4si> insomninja: it might be this - last line of dmesg -- nfs: server 192.168.0.2 not responding, still trying
[01:07] <kindofabuzz> well i just looked, the screenlets daemon is checked in startup
[01:07] <soldats> Jberg88__: /nick <yournick>
[01:07] <soldats> yay
[01:07] <Jberg88> thank YOU!
[01:07] <insomninja> ere4si, are you trying to access a network share?
[01:07] <CShadowRun> 1 new one, installed it :)
[01:07] <ere4si> insomninja: nope - just open my home folder
[01:08] <kindofabuzz> what is "sticky" in the options of each screenlet? there is locked and sticky, maybe sticky has to be checked?
[01:08] <insomninja> kindofabuzz, that's not it
[01:09] <jacktheripper> need to upgrade to fast access dsl BAD
[01:09] <jacktheripper> please help
[01:09] <insomninja> kindofabuzz, isn't there a setting for each screenlet somewhere in the screenlets window or in the screenlet properties like "run this automatically" or smt
[01:09] <kindofabuzz> looking...

[01:09] <ubotu> jacktheripper: Setting up an ADSL/PPPoE connection? Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ADSLPPPoE
[01:09] <IndyGunFreak> kindofabuzz: i believe that makes it stick.. and any window comes up under it.
[01:09] <jacktheripper> thank you
[01:10] <kindofabuzz> yeah there is a "auto start at login"  thanks
[01:11] <insomninja> ere4si, what do you get if you run ls /etc/init.d/nfs*
[01:11] <kyevan_LCD> Everyone who worked on cfdisk ever, is a god
[01:11] <insomninja> kindofabuzz, ^^
[01:11] <jacktheripper> ubotu and flannel i am there, will research, and will thank you again later
[01:11] <ere4si> insomninja: /etc/init.d/nfs-common
[01:11] <jacktheripper> dont know why hours of googling did not reveal the page
[01:12] <tems> Hey guys.  Just finished installing Ubuntu with wubi but am getting the following error when trying to boot for the first time:  "Failed to start the X Server (your graphical interface).  It is likely that it is not set up correctly.  Would you like to view the X server output to diagnose the problem?"  as well as that error message, another message appeared over the top of that one and continues to repeat every 30 seconds or so .  "[xxx.xxxxxx] bcm43xx: Error: Mi
[01:12] <insomninja> ere4si, just for the sake of it, try "sudo /etc/init.d/nfs-common restart" and then run thunar again
[01:12] <tems> Where xxx.xxxxx is a bunch of numbers that change each time the error is displayed
[01:12] <orudie> this is what my /etc/network/interfaces looks like for static ip, i would like to change it back to dynamic, would anyone help please? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60109/
[01:13] <jacktheripper> i love ubotu the bot
[01:13] <ere4si> insomninja: just turned the server on to see if that solves the issue - one min
[01:13] <jacktheripper> he is obviously smarter than i
[01:13] <Ademan> ubotu is incredibly dumb, he just has a ton of perfect memory :-p
[01:13] <kindofabuzz> i'm still trying to figure out how my xserver justs breaks when it wants to, i can go all day without touching xorg.conf, then reboot, then it wants to start in low graphics mode, i just reinstall vid drivers and it works again
[01:14] <ere4si> insomninja: thunar needs the server on it seems - nfs mounts are in fstab
[01:14] <jacktheripper> ademan...unlike me
[01:14] <Flannel> orudie: comment all that out (the iface eth0 line to the end) and replace it with: iface eth0 inet dhcp
[01:14] <Jberg88> VPN keeps going down on my computer sorry
[01:15] <tems> ==/msg ubotu etiquette
[01:15] <orudie> Flannel: can you please paste it to me in ubuntu pastebin ? i'm sorry i'm new to this
[01:15] <kindofabuzz> anyone use the GnomeArt screenlet?
[01:15] <trev> so all of a suden .iso files can no longer be written to a disk with right click and now ubuntu thinks they are opened in text editor, does anyone know how to fix this?
[01:15] <slenentine> orudie: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60110/
[01:15] <minimec> kindofabuzz: I guess it's more a keyboard/mouse problem. Do you have any USB devices (mouse/keyboard)?
[01:15] <insomninja> ere4si, unmount the nfs shares before turning off the server
[01:15] <jacktheripper> tems ?
[01:15] <ekaj> umm..im currently using a windows versiom, and have a ubuntu os id like to put on..if i downloaded ubuntu would it work along with ms as a dual-os
[01:16] <kindofabuzz> minimec: yeah usb mouse
[01:16] <ere4si> insomninja: I'll remove the entries from fstab and manually mount I think...
[01:16] <Flannel> orudie: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60111/
[01:16] <tems> sorry - typo
[01:16] <trev> nevermind it only did it to that one file
[01:16] <insomninja> ere4si, I've had similar problems but where a flaky network connection were the fault
[01:16] <insomninja> ere4si, good idea
[01:16] <insomninja> you can always put it in a script
[01:16] <Positronic> Are there any real-world benefits of Reiser4 over ext3?
[01:16] <minimec> kindofabuzz: are you running the mouse with the 'evdev' driver or with the 'mouse' driver?
[01:17] <ere4si> insomninja: evidently there is a way to set a timeout for nfs
[01:17]  * insomninja wishes he'd known about that
[01:17] <kindofabuzz>    dev/input mice
[01:17] <aks_> hello
[01:18] <insomninja> hi
[01:18] <aks_> I"m getting problems with uswsusp
[01:18] <aks_> hibernate works but machine hangs soon after it comes out of suspend mode
[01:18] <Ownatik> Hi, I installed Ubuntu, rebooted, but I don't get the grub menu to choose if I want to boot XP or ubuntu, it only boots XP automatically, I didn't uncheck the "install bootloader" option in the installer. What's wrong?
[01:18] <ekaj> i have windows..can i use ubuntu as a 2nd OS without installing any other programs besides ubuntu?
[01:19] <aks_> ekaj: you could even try it using the liveCD
[01:19] <Dr_willis> Hmm.. ive been testing out various live cd's this week. and ONE of them had a stand-alone flash player from adobe, which was handy. But i cant seem to find it in any other disrtos/flash  anyone know was it part of the flash installs or a stand alone app?
[01:19] <hendrixski> Hey, how can I transfer files from one Ubuntu computer to another if there is no internet connection?  I can bring a router and cable with me but there might not be internet :-/
[01:19] <ekaj> aks: ram isnt very plentiful on my comp =p
[01:19] <minimec> kindofabuzz: I need the driver... not the
[01:19] <Dr_willis> hendrixski,  if both have gigabit network cards you can plug in any network cable.
[01:19] <[agatha]> ekaj, you can you can i do it with 512 ram... you only can use an os at a time :)
[01:19] <Dr_willis> hendrixski,  assign static ips to both. and then copy things over your micro-lan :)
[01:20] <kindofabuzz> minimec: oh i don't know the actaul driver
[01:20] <Dr_willis> hendrixski,  if no gigibit networking. a router and cable would be handier.
[01:20] <ekaj> couldnt i get a dual os, where i choose which i want to use?
[01:20] <hendrixski> Dr_willis, that sounds complicated.  Is there a manual you could point me to?
[01:20] <CJS3141> Is it true Internet Explorer 7 doesn't work with Wine?
[01:20] <clearzen> hendrixski: crossover cable
[01:20] <Dr_willis> hendrixski,  complex? plug in a cable.. assign static ip.. use whatever tools you want
[01:20] <Ademan> CJS3141: check wine's appdb
[01:20] <Dr_willis> complex would be gettting wireless going. :)
[01:20] <kindofabuzz> CJS3141: why the hell would you wanna do that??
[01:20] <newyorkerjj35> i have just installed kiba dock, how do i make it so it runson startup??
[01:20] <[agatha]> ekaj, if you install ubuntu an want to keep windows, its possible, it will install a boot loader *(grub) and you can choose which one on startup
[01:20] <tems> Is there a rule on how long you have to wait before re-asking a question?
[01:21] <Ademan> CJS3141: http://appdb.winehq.org/
[01:21] <CJS3141> kindofabuzz: I know, I'm no MS fan, but some websites require IE to view.
[01:21] <ekaj> ok, thanks =]
[01:21] <hendrixski> Dr_willis, yeah, I'm bringing a router and cable.  but I'm trying this at home, and it's not recognizing the router as a valid connection if there's no internets on it :-(
[01:21] <kindofabuzz> i don't get why someone would want IE on there linux box.  or hell, even there windows box
[01:21] <Ademan> tems: just use your own judgement, most people won't care unless it's less than 3 minutes apart or something, i dunno
[01:21] <[agatha]> no worries ekaj  :) just before installing backup everything important.. in case there's any problem ;)
[01:21] <Flannel> tems: Usually about 15-30 minutes is a good bet.  You've gotta give it enough time for new peoople to wake up, etc.
[01:21] <kindofabuzz> firefox ftw!
[01:22] <ekaj> ok :)
[01:22] <orudie> Flannel: ok modified by your example, how can i apply changes now ?
[01:22] <Dr_willis> hendrixski,  be sure you got the pc's pluged in the the lan conectors not the wan one.
[01:22] <Ownatik> Hi, I installed Ubuntu, rebooted, but I don't get the grub menu to choose if I want to boot XP or ubuntu, it only boots XP automatically, I didn't uncheck the "install bootloader" option in the installer. What's wrong?
[01:22] <Dr_willis> hendrixski,  and be sure you got dhcp enabled on the router
[01:22] <tems> Hey guys.  Just finished installing Ubuntu with wubi but am getting the following error when trying to boot for the first time:  "Failed to start the X Server (your graphical interface).  It is likely that it is not set up correctly.  Would you like to view the X server output to diagnose the problem?"  as well as that error message, another message appeared over the top of that one and continues to repeat every 30 seconds or so .  "[xxx.xxxxxx] bcm43xx: Error: Mi
[01:22] <kindofabuzz> lol sounds like you deleted your xp partition?
[01:22] <Flannel> orudie: restart networking.  sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
[01:22] <m1r> evening all
[01:22] <tems> hi m1r
[01:23] <m1r> what is latest version of 8.04 to download ?
[01:23] <m1r> hi tems
[01:23] <pros977> the bcm43xx is your broadcom wireless. Sounds like a laptop
[01:23] <kindofabuzz> alpha 6?
[01:23] <Ademan> CJS3141: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=4195   looks like it doesn't work, but the latest test (the one i just sent you) is several versions old, that may have changed
[01:23] <Jordan_U> tems, What Graphics card do you have?
[01:23] <kindofabuzz> i think beta1 comes out this week
[01:23] <tems> that's correct pros!
[01:23] <CJS3141> Ownatik: I had a similar problem and had to modify the grub boot file to make things work
[01:23] <pros977> tems ditto Jordan's question
[01:23] <CJS3141> Ademan: Thanks!
[01:23] <minimec> kindofabuzz: Well.. If you never touched your /etc/X11/xorg.xonf after the install, you will use the 'mouse' driver. The 'evdev' driver is for devices with extra buttons and the xserver sometimes sometimes has some problems with usb devices, if you don't indicate the exact usb adress of the device.
[01:23] <hendrixski> Dr_willis, yup, they're both plugged in... now static IP... what tool would you recommend for this?
[01:23] <m1r> tbx kindofabuzz
[01:23] <tems> Can I check from the command prompt, Jordan or do I need to reboot windows?  I can alt-f2 to get to linux prompt
[01:24] <kindofabuzz> minimec: i use the mouse driver with all buttons working.
[01:24] <pros977> tems try dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[01:24] <pros977> tems sudo that command rather
[01:24] <kindofabuzz> tems: ctrl-alt-f2
[01:25] <jin> does Ubuntu use the two cores of a C2D effectively?
[01:25] <kindofabuzz> or tems do a ls in your /etc/X11 and see if you have a xorg.conf.backup
[01:25] <Dr_willis> hendrixski,  depends on what you like. ssh and scp are handy. :) but  theres proberly 6+ ways to do it.
[01:25] <Jordan_U> tems, If you are going to reconfigure X as others have suggested you probably want to use "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh" since it won't ask you any questions
[01:25] <tems> sorry - trying to figure this out
[01:25] <tems> as I can't login as root
[01:25] <minimec> kindofabuzz: My Logiteech G5 is a typical 'evdev' mouse, if you want all the functions...
[01:25] <tems> just the account I set up with wubi
[01:25] <kindofabuzz> if so, do a sudo cp /etc/Z11/xorg.conf.backup /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[01:26] <kindofabuzz> X*
[01:26] <pros977> tems type sudo passwd
[01:26] <Dr_willis> hendrixski,  see if they can ping each other. if so - you are ready to install whatever services you want/tools to transfer stuff.
[01:26] <pros977> tems that will allow you to set a root password
[01:26] <hendrixski> Dr_willis, thanks.  I'll give that a try
[01:26] <Jack_Sparrow> !noroot
[01:26] <ubotu> We don't support a root password so don't suggest one unless you are going to be here 24/7 to help someone who has problems as a result of having one, many thanks ;-)
[01:26] <kindofabuzz> minimec:  all i need is my back and forth buttons, and they work
[01:26] <aks_> does anyone have any experience tweaking hibernate/sleep utilities in ubuntu?
[01:26] <Jordan_U> pros977, Please do not suggest that
[01:26] <insomninja> jin, if you mean if it spreads processes on both, then yes, if you mean compared to XYZ, then dunno
[01:27] <pros977> Sorry about the root advice. I use root all the time. By bad.
[01:27] <hendrixski> pros977, that makes you a bad person
[01:27] <Dr_willis> :)
[01:27] <[agatha]> tems,  im not sure an im not sure at all, but i think your account password is the one you have to enter when sudo asks you for one... still im not sure im not sure
[01:27] <Dr_willis> Im so used to using different disrtos. i normally set up su, sux, and sudo on them all.
[01:27] <kindofabuzz> has anyone ever noticed things that take sudo don't always ask for your password?
[01:27] <pros977> hendrixski I hate sudo with a passion
[01:27]  * tems is very confused now :) Lemme try and catch up so sorry if it takes me a min to reply
[01:27] <Dr_willis> kindofabuzz,  it 'caches' the password for like a min or 2. so if you do 2 sudo commands in a row. the 2nd one dosent ask
[01:28] <Ademan> kindofabuzz: sudo "remembers" your password for 5 minutes
[01:28] <CokeNCode> hey guys, i wanna do a printscreen, need a program that i can apt-get install quickly
[01:28] <CokeNCode> that'll do the job
[01:28] <Jordan_U> kindofabuzz, The timeout for sudo is configurable
[01:28] <kindofabuzz> like i can open synaptic and put in password..log out..open again and it doesn't ask for password
[01:28] <soldats> aks_: i know a way to make it sleep at the appropriate time but i have no experience with thte hibernation as i never or ever will use it.
[01:28] <Ademan> ah, maybe 2 minutes, i've never checked myself lol
[01:28] <Dr_willis> !printscreen
[01:28] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about printscreen - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[01:28] <insomninja> CokeNCode, scrot
[01:28] <kindofabuzz> oh it is jordan?
[01:28] <Lagg> Does anyone have experience with Shoes for ruby ?
[01:28] <kindofabuzz> how you change that?
[01:28] <hendrixski> pros977, good for you, don't spread windows-noob habits to others.  Keep root where it belongs... on the server admin's emergency-only toolkit
[01:28] <Dr_willis> CokeNCode,  gimp can do it also.
[01:28] <Jack_Sparrow> kindofabuzz, It holds it for like 10 minutes
[01:28] <aks_> soldats: any particular reason to stay away from it?
[01:28] <CokeNCode> thanks insomninja
[01:28] <eldereko> can someone help me with a NetworkManager issue, I installed a vpn connection but its not showing the connection on the NetworkManager applet, even after restarting it... anyone know what's goin on??
[01:29] <hendrixski> anyway... I'm gonna try this non-internet router transfer thing... so.. later
[01:29] <pros977> hendrixski Agrred
[01:29]  * hendrixski leaves
[01:29] <minimec> kindofabuzz: Have you ever checked your /var/log/Xorg.0.log and /var/log/Xorg.0.log.old after a failed xserver start?
[01:29] <kindofabuzz> no, still a newb
[01:29] <CokeNCode> hmmm, a command line screen capture program
[01:29] <CokeNCode> interesting
[01:30] <soldats> aks_: i always hear it doesnt work properly for hibernation, also from experience the basic gui it has is a little retarded. i use xorg.conf to set sleep time, but doing that will make it only sleep after a set time no matter what unless you explicitly tell it to sleep
[01:30] <minimec> kindofabuzz: that would give us some info about your problem. Check your /var/log a little bit. Lots of interesting things in it ;)
[01:30] <Jack_Sparrow> kindofabuzz, Sorry   15    https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[01:30] <kindofabuzz> cool thanks
[01:30] <kindofabuzz> thanks jack
[01:30] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[01:31] <Ademan> Jack_Sparrow: wow that long?
[01:31] <kindofabuzz> ok what is gksudo?
[01:31] <Jack_Sparrow> Ademan, I thought it was shorter, but that page says 15
[01:31] <Jack_Sparrow> !gksudo
[01:31] <ubotu> If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why)
[01:32] <insomninja> = gksudo for gui programs, sudo for terminal
[01:32] <kindofabuzz> oh so i should always gksudo gedit instead of sudo gedit?
[01:32] <soldats> CokeNCode: you can install "scrot" for screen shots its cli based but very easy to use and versatile
[01:32] <soldats> and small
[01:32] <Jack_Sparrow> kindofabuzz, yes
[01:32] <yanger> is there a graphical flowchart program avaliable for use under gnome/ubuntu?
[01:32] <Pawbie> yanger: Check synaptic for UML.
[01:33] <tems> OK - I'm logged into root now.  There is no xorg.conf.backup in /etc/X11
[01:33] <kindofabuzz> how can i set file roller to open sudo everytime?
[01:33] <yanger> UMl/
[01:33] <yanger> er UML?
[01:33] <Pawbie> yanger: You're looking for something comparable to Visio, right?
[01:33] <kindofabuzz> tems: anything with a date?
[01:33] <Ademan> kindofabuzz: i don't think you can, why would you need that anyways?
[01:33] <Jack_Sparrow> agreed
[01:33] <yanger> Pawbie yep
[01:33] <tems> sudo dpkg-reconfigure-xserver-xorg: command not found
[01:33] <kindofabuzz> ademan: like if i wanna extract something into a folder my user doesn't have rights to
[01:34] <jayar> I have H2 Cobra Webcamera here and I am having problem in connecting it to my ubuntu box... can someone here tell me which driver to use with this device? thanks in advance
[01:34] <Pawbie> yanger: Yea, I can't remember the name of the package, but it'll show up if you search Synaptic for UML
[01:34] <yanger> any simpler is better..
[01:34] <Jordan_U> tems, You need a space instead of a '-' after ...reconfigure
[01:34] <pros977> Alright, I'm hoping I don't get flamed too hard here, but I'm going to throw this out there. I log in as root using Gnome, and I have since my Slackware days almost a decade ago now. Who can persuade me to change?
[01:34] <soldats> tems: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[01:34] <Jordan_U> tems, so the command is "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh"
[01:34] <Pawbie> pros977: Ya, and so do all the XP users, and Mac's still believe there's no malware for their platform.  Who cares? ;)
[01:35] <pros977> --Computer shuts down and formats itself based on a remote exploit over irc.
[01:35] <Jack_Sparrow> kindofabuzz, Probably not the best choice...to do that all the time.. it will only lead to needing sudo or gksudo even more
[01:35] <yanger> ahh..
[01:35] <yanger> DIA Diagram
[01:35] <yanger> thanks!
[01:35] <yanger> i knew it existed.. just didn't know the name
[01:35] <Jack_Sparrow> pros977, That belongs in offtopic as it is not a support question
[01:35] <Jordan_U> yanger, There are others as well
[01:35] <kindofabuzz> jack, well i guess i could stick to sudo tar
[01:36] <Pawbie> yanger: There's a ton more.
[01:36] <pros977> Jack_Sparrow Different channel?
[01:36] <yanger> oh :X
[01:36] <soldats> !ot > pros977
[01:36] <Jack_Sparrow> pros977, YEs, this is support, that is discussion.
[01:36] <pros977> Pawbie So, what you're saying is that if everyone used root, more exploits would be developed and Linux as a whole would be less safe?
[01:36] <yanger> any that you guys would prefer? just want to use it to create flowcharts
[01:36] <CokeNCode> thanks soldats, worked like a charm
[01:36] <pros977> !ot
[01:36] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[01:36] <soldats> CokeNCode: np good luck
[01:37] <pros977> Jack_Sparrow Noted. TY
[01:37] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[01:37] <Jordan_U> yanger, I have heard good things about kivio but never used it myself
[01:37] <Pawbie> pros977: Uh, no?  If you read some of the trends, Linux is actually the number 1 exploited plat for services.  More Apache sites get pounded than IIS.
[01:38] <tems> OK - that opened up a configuration menu.  I try to autodetect and it says "No X Server known for your video hardware.  There is either no video hardware installed on this machine (e.g serial console only) or the discover program was unable to determine which X Server is appropriate for the video hardware.  This could be due to incomplete information in discover's hardware database, or because your video hardware is not supported by the available X servers
[01:38] <soldats> tems: the vesa driver should work
[01:38] <tems> also - that error message continues to appear every minute or so saying the same thing and obscuring the screen
[01:38] <yanger> Jordan_U trying to stay away from multiple DEs
[01:38] <yanger> :)
[01:39] <snypzz_> still trying to get the movie player and vlm to play dvd's
[01:39] <tems> forgive any idiocy on my part.  nearly a complete linux virgin.   Is the vesa driver something I need to download?
[01:39] <ere4si> insomninja: just needed to add "soft" in the fstab entry :)
[01:39] <Jack_Sparrow> !dvd
[01:39] <ubotu> 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
[01:39] <Itaku> how can i make mp3's playable on my apache2 webserver?
[01:39] <Jack_Sparrow> tems, no vesa should not need to be downloaded
[01:40] <insomninja> ere4si, ty
[01:40] <Jordan_U> tems, No, its the least common denominator driver, it is already installed but may not be selected to be used
[01:40] <soldats> tems: vesa is normally the integrated video driver support. try "sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg"
[01:40] <Jordan_U> tems, What version of Ubuntu are you using?
[01:40] <Jack_Sparrow> tems, 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
[01:41] <orudie> Flannel: it worked, thanx a lot, but now my domain doesnt point to my server
[01:41] <tems> Ah - OK.  I select VESA but it's asking for the identifier for the video card.  I'm using the version that is installed with Wubi.  I will try that lates command
[01:42] <Flannel> orudie: Your router doesn't forward to the right IP.  Because now you're using a dynamically assigned one.  you'll need to update it to your new internal IP.
[01:42] <Jack_Sparrow> tems, fyi.. wubi is something I would avoid.. with extreme prejudice (sp)
[01:42] <Svenstaro_> Hey there, quick question, does Ubuntu use /etc/skel for the live session?
[01:43] <orudie> Flannel: i took my ubunto box outside my router
[01:43] <Flannel> Svenstaro_: No
[01:43] <Jordan_U> Svenstaro_, I wouldn't expect it too, why?
[01:43] <Svenstaro_> Flannel, so what does it use to generate the live user home?
[01:43] <Flannel> Svenstaro_: I believe its hardcoded.
[01:43] <tems> I used wubi as I had trouble with the installer not working for me :(  just had to reboot but will try that latest command now
[01:44] <Svenstaro_> Flannel, I want to build my own little distro and want to put some files into it
[01:44] <leo_rockw> hello everyone
[01:44] <Svenstaro_> Flannel, that would suck :(
[01:44] <Jordan_U> tems, What version though, 7.10?
[01:44] <Flannel> Svenstaro_: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization
[01:44] <Jack_Sparrow> tems, 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 "--"
[01:44] <ionstorm> im getting a crzy install error http://pastebin.ca/948351 for wxpython, anyone know how to resolve this? looks like a dep issue
[01:44] <Pasha> I need some help with Grub and it being quite ghey
[01:44] <Svenstaro_> Flannel, thanks I'll have a look at that
[01:44] <Flannel> orudie: Then you'll need to update your DNS to point to your server.
[01:44] <tems> I can't check right now as I'm not in windows where I downloaded it.  Unless there's a root command?
[01:45] <Jack_Sparrow> tems, lsb_release -a
[01:45] <prettyricky> how goes one install a new splashscreen? I already have the splashscreen manager installed
[01:45] <orudie> Flannel: i think i have ddclient installed
[01:45] <Jordan_U> tems, lsb_release -a
[01:45] <leo_rockw> i'm in the same workgroup as a win comp in my network. I can see the other comp, but when i navigate it none of the shared folders show up, what could be the reason? (the window$ comp has no firewall)
[01:45] <orudie> Flannel: do i have to make changes to ddclient ?
[01:46] <leo_rockw> after a while i get a "waiting time has expired on the server" or smth like that
[01:46] <SeaPhor> ok, maybe i'm in the wrong place, after watching some of the questions,,, I'm a TOTAL n00b. and my problem has a lot of variables
[01:46] <leo_rockw> !smb > leo_rockw
[01:46] <Flannel> orudie: I think ddclient runs occasionally, and not automatically.
[01:46] <Flannel> orudie: Does it work if you visit your IP?
[01:46] <Jack_Sparrow> SeaPhor, Pick a place to start and ask
[01:46] <fiveiron> anyone else having problems with the flash player in firefox locking up the browser only recently?
[01:47] <Pasha> not for me atm at least
[01:47] <SeaPhor> yes
[01:47] <Pasha> I have a major problem, and I'm wondering if anyone can help
[01:47] <Pasha> I have 2 80gb hard drives, when I plug in a third 160gb hard drive, I get GRUB error 17. I have an ABIT mobo that has a problem doing anything if the sata hard drives are not plugged into ports 5/6. Can anyone help?
[01:47] <soldats> fiveiron: are you running multiple sessions of flash and/or running other memory hogging apps
[01:47] <Jack_Sparrow> !pm | Menfest
[01:47] <ubotu> Menfest: Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can also benefit AND help you. Please don't PM a user in the channel without asking first, some find it rude.
[01:48] <Pasha> I am on 7.10
[01:48] <orudie> Flannel: yes works by typing ip in the browser
[01:48] <insomninja> fiveiron, that is a known problem I've heard ff3 will take care of it
[01:48] <orudie> Flannel: i had it set up with zoneedit and ddclient, i t hought those servers are for when your ip changes
[01:48] <Flannel> orudie: Then its just DynDNS that needs to update.  You could try manually updating (and even then, I believe it takes a little bit of time to propogate anyway)
[01:48] <Jack_Sparrow> Pasha, are you sure the working two are in the first two sata ports ?
[01:48] <fiveiron> insomninja: i'm running in ff3.
[01:48] <soldats> insomninja: it will for the most part but still a minor problem in ff3
[01:49] <fiveiron> i will try rebooting tho... perhaps some stray processing is hosing me up
[01:49] <Menfest> why do people help here for no reason? or benefit Jack_Sparrow
[01:49] <Dipingo> I just DLed the ISO for 7.1 and am trying to get a VMware to install it
[01:49] <Pasha> no, the working two are in the last 2 sata ports. So ports 5/6. Ports 1/2 are still available
[01:49] <fiveiron> s/processing/process
[01:49] <Itaku> how can i make mp3's playable on my apache2 webserver?
[01:49] <orudie> flannel: how can i update DynDNS
[01:49] <Jack_Sparrow> Pasha, Adding another should not change grub unless it is "Below" the others
[01:49] <Pasha> yes, it is below.
[01:49] <twistage> Does anyone know if redirected direct rendering has been fixed for integrated intel graphics?
[01:49] <Jordan_U> Menfest, Because we are just awesome like that :)
[01:49] <Pasha> SUPER GRUB does not solve this problem either
[01:49] <Dipingo> I thought I would try inhere for some help
[01:49] <soldats> manlymatt83: its rewarding to help someone, we want to boraden the horizon of ubuntu and linux
[01:49] <Cpudan80> Itaku: Thats a function of the client
[01:49] <orudie> Pasha: kakasha
[01:49] <mauro> hello
[01:49] <Pasha> rofl spasba orduie
[01:50] <orudie> Pasha: ya tozhe pasha
[01:50] <mauro> im conencting through SSH, is there a way to see whats on a TTY terminal on the host PC?
[01:50] <Cpudan80> Itaku: Apache allows MP3 downloads/streams with no mods
[01:50] <Pasha> ei ti toucha pashka kakashka
[01:50] <icesword> ,i burned a iso the other day,i used 8X ,lead it to burn failure,coz when it echoed preparing cache data,and it hanged there,so i quit,and then i use 16X to burn the same iso with another disc,i succeded,the iso looks from outside is 678m ,but in fact inside it is 1.3g.so that is thing,lol,what is the point ?what is wrong
[01:50] <leo_rockw> orudie: i believe you're looking for ddns3-client
[01:50] <Jordan_U> twistage, AFIK no, though you can use XGL :(
[01:50] <tems> ok I have opened the x configuration thing in root with the command suggested earlier - what should I be looking to change?
[01:50] <ronandi> yo dont speak un russian, you'll get muted
[01:50] <Pasha> hmm brb I have an idea
[01:50] <Flannel> orudie: You go to their website and login.  Although, you can probably invoke ddclient as wel
[01:50] <kindofabuzz> where are nautilus scripts stored?
[01:50] <mauro> !ru
[01:50] <ubotu> Пожалуйста посетите #ubuntu-ru для получения помощи на русском языке  / Pozhalujsta posetite #ubuntu-ru dlya polucheniya pomoshi na russkom yazyke

[01:51] <soulrider__> Dr_willis: good thing youre here :P maybe you know
[01:51] <twistage> Jordan_U: ahhh, okay. thanks
[01:51] <soulrider__> im conencting to a host pc with SSH, and i need to be able to see whats on a TTY console there
[01:51] <Dr_willis> i go to work in ... 6 min. :)
[01:51] <Dr_willis> heh
[01:51] <leo_rockw> soulrider__: now, or on a general basis?
[01:51] <carol> hey whats up
[01:52] <leo_rockw> soulrider__: you could use screen...
[01:52] <tems> My version info is Ubuntu 7.04 (feisty)
[01:52] <Dr_willis> soulrider,  use screen, and you can  share a terminal. is one way
[01:52] <soulrider__> leo_rockw: im suing screen
[01:52] <Wazm> sup
[01:52] <felixhcat> hello
[01:52] <Dr_willis> screen is a MUST learn about tool. :)
[01:52] <ere4si> kindofabuzz: http://g-scripts.sourceforge.net/faq.php - tells you
[01:52] <soulrider__> but can i connect to screen through SSH ?
[01:52] <Dr_willis> ssh in, run screen
[01:52] <kindofabuzz> thanks
[01:52] <clearzen> soulrider__:yes
[01:52] <Jordan_U> soulrider, Yes
[01:52] <leo_rockw> soulrider__: yes, that's the beauty of screen
[01:52] <Dr_willis> ssh in from other box, reconnect screen
[01:52] <soulrider__> Dr_willis: im doing that =/
[01:52] <soulrider__> i actually want to know how to see somethign thats running on konsole
[01:53] <Dr_willis> on the local box. the guy thee could run screen and connect to the session also.
[01:53] <clearzen> soulrider__ ssh -t user@host "screen -d -r"
[01:53] <carol> anyone else having problems with the default package servers/?
[01:53] <Dr_willis> soulrider,  Konsole, is differnt from console. but screen will run under konsole or other xterms also
[01:53] <jayar> I have H2 Cobra Webcamera here and I am having problem in connecting it to my ubuntu box... can someone here tell me which driver to use with this device? thanks in advance
[01:53] <Dr_willis> run konsole, run screen, connect to screen session from other places by sshing in, and running screen with the right options.
[01:54] <twistage> Jordan_U: how stable is XGL in Gutsy? is it more of a proof of concept?
[01:54] <orudie> Flannel: any more detials please? i dont konw what to do
[01:54] <felixhcat> ?
[01:54] <Wazm> good
[01:54] <carol> is gutsy better than my edgy?
[01:54] <kindofabuzz> is there a eb for gnome 2.22 yet?
[01:54] <kindofabuzz> deb
[01:54] <soulrider__> clearzen: so if im running screen locally then ssh clients can connect to thats creens ession ?
[01:54] <soldats> carol: it has more support
[01:54] <SeaPhor> ok, have 7.10 dual with xp, having minor issues so wanted to start over, fresh new 160gb hdd, installed winxp-updated-etc, installed Ubuntu 7.10, updated, installed envy, updated Nvidia GeForce 8600GT drivers for linux, after re-boot- low graphics mode, cant get out of 640x400, started over no envy this time, same result
[01:54] <Dr_willis> soulrider,  yes. you can have several connections to the same screen session i recall.
[01:55] <Dr_willis> soulrider,  'twin' offers a similer feature. but its not as popular
[01:55] <soulrider__> Dr_willis: thats awesome!
[01:55] <alwrwr2003> hi
[01:55] <kindofabuzz> SeaPhor: when that happens to me i just reinstall the nvidia drivers using Envy
[01:55] <clearzen> soulrider__:yes, you can run multiple screen sessions as well. you connect through pid in that case
[01:55] <soulrider__> Dr_willis: i think im gonna start running gentoo now that i can admin it from class/work :P
[01:55] <leo_rockw> twin looks more user friendly...
[01:55] <carol> hey, you guys rock!
[01:55] <Dr_willis> soulrider,  you can admin ubuntu the same way. :)
[01:55] <soldats> SeaPhor: did you have a correct res at one point, maybe a "sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg" will fix it
[01:55] <soulrider__> clearzen: is there some docs thate xplain all this? mind you, i have never sued ssh before
[01:56] <alwrwr2003> i want program to download file like flash get in windows
[01:56] <soldats> !envy | SeaPhor also read this
[01:56] <ubotu> SeaPhor also read this: 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 »
[01:56] <orudie> leo_rockw: hey there?
[01:56] <clearzen> soulrider__: man screen man ssh? you might be able to find some tuts through google
[01:56] <Flannel> orudie: Looks like this may do it: sudo /etc/init.d/ddclient restart
[01:56] <SeaPhor> yes, tried those, and sorry, told you i'm a n00b, dont know how to send back
[01:56] <leo_rockw> orudie: yes?
[01:56] <soulrider__> clearzen: ok, thanks!
[01:56] <soulrider__> thanks toy ou too Dr_willis
[01:57] <kindofabuzz> says ~.gnome/nautilus-scripts, but i don't have that nautilus dir
[01:57] <leo_rockw> i'm in the same workgroup as a win comp in my network. I can see the other comp from my lin box, but when i navigate it none of the shared folders of  the win machine show up, what could be the reason? (the window$ comp has no firewall)
[01:57] <xjkx> is anybody here very experienced with how the boot of the livecd works ? i have a not common question about its funcionality
[01:57] <clearzen> soulrider__: you can actually setup a port to listen for a connection and return a shell to you as well with ssh
[01:57] <carol> will automatrix screw up my Software Updates.  im trying to upgrade my edgy to Gutsy.  imstuck
[01:58] <ere4si> kindofabuzz: you can make it and put scripts there
[01:58] <clearzen> soulrider__: it's called a reverse connection
[01:58] <kindofabuzz> oh ok
[01:58] <ere4si> :)
[01:58] <AlgorithmicContr> Could someone help me set up VNC?
[01:58] <SeaPhor> did u read the last part,,, repeated ENTIRE process without installing envy...
[01:58] <kumarphilly> if i embeded a ajax client onto a website that connected to this chat... (looks better then all the clients out there) would anyone use it?
[01:58] <kindofabuzz> well i have some scripts already, but i guess they are somewhere else but they work
[01:58] <soldats> !automatix | carol
[01:58] <ubotu> carol: automatix is not recommended, supported or needed. See http://mjg59.livejournal.com/77440.html and « /msg ubotu WorksForMe »
[01:58] <SeaPhor> same result
[01:58] <soldats> carol: use the udate manager
[01:59] <soldats> err update
[01:59] <carol> i do.
[01:59] <tems> OK guys.  I ran the config for xserver-xorg as root in Feisty and chose the vesa option, resolution etc.  Went through the process and I ended up back at prompt.  Rebooted and am getting the same error message.  Any ideas?
[01:59] <carol> for some reason when i pick lets say wine and install it.  it has an apt error.  cannot contact server
[02:00] <clearzen> tems: run sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[02:00] <soldats> carol: well you should update to each newer release until you get to gusty to reduce problems otherwise backup personal info, intstall via fresh gusty cd and replace your personal info
[02:00] <yago> does anyone use Ada?
[02:00] <Flannel> carol: you can't upgrade straight from edgy to gutsy.  You need to upgrade to feisty first.
[02:00] <Flannel> !upgrade | carol
[02:00] <ubotu> carol: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[02:00] <clearzen> tems: and then try again
[02:01] <alwrwr2003> i want a program to download files like flashget in windows pls
[02:01] <orudie> Flannel: ddclient wasnt even runnin, it gave me this : * To run ddclient as a daemon, please set run_daemon to 'true' in /etc/default/ddclient
[02:01] <kindofabuzz> http://www.winehq.org/site/download-deb
[02:01] <carol> thats what i figured as far as the upgrade path .  when i try and get the fiesty , the servers error out so it dont download it.
[02:01] <Jack_Sparrow> tems sudo apt-get install pastebinit  && cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | pastebinit (Provide Pastebin link in channel)
[02:01] <leo_rockw> alwrwr2003: wget ;-)
[02:01] <xjkx> is anybody here very experienced with how the boot of the livecd works ? i have a not common question about its funcionality
[02:01] <Flannel> orudie: ah, well, in that case, you didn't actually have dd client running.  So, Edit that file, and change it to true.
[02:02] <kindofabuzz> is there a deb for gnome 2.22 yet?
[02:02] <carol> im thinking my apt=get locations are somehow changed from the default one.  or its really just down.
[02:02] <Jack_Sparrow> carol, sudo apt-get install pastebinit  && cat /etc/apt/sources.list | pastebinit (Provide Pastebin link in channel)
[02:02] <Flannel> carol: We're willing to take a look at it.  Pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list
[02:03] <db-keen> Where would I find information about making a LiveCD with Ubuntu and a custom set of packages?
[02:03] <Jack_Sparrow> :)
[02:03] <alwrwr2003> where i found it ( wget)
[02:03] <Jack_Sparrow> !remaster
[02:03] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about remaster - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[02:03] <Jack_Sparrow> db-keen, there is a wiki on remastering
[02:03] <Flannel> db-keen: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization
[02:04] <Flamekebab> I'm running Gutsy - how come it's possible to run X without a xorg.conf file?
[02:04] <Jack_Sparrow> Flannel, thanks.. I need to call it a night...  everyone, have fun, but play nice
[02:04] <soulrider__> Flamekebab: theres always one
[02:05] <soulrider__> Flamekebab: type "cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf"
[02:05] <carol> how do i pm someone here
[02:05] <Jack_Sparrow> Flamekebab, Make sure you look in /etc/X11/xorg.conf   note Cap X
[02:05] <soulrider__> carol: you ahve to be registered
[02:05] <ani1>  carol  /msg nick message
[02:05] <xim> can I make it so the gnome themes dont screw up my browsers display of webpages
[02:05] <Flamekebab> Jack_Sparrow, I know where it should be. I removed it as the old one was giving me grief
[02:05] <Flannel> carol: Pastebin (http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
[02:05] <Flamekebab> and currently I've got the correct resolution somehow, so something really weird is going on
[02:05] <tems> Clearzen - just ran that command again.  Selected vesa and resolution.  It warned me that I could be overwriting something, then gave me a prompt again.  Reboot gives same error again
[02:06] <clearzen> tems: what error is it?
[02:06] <tems> Failed to start the x server..etc
[02:06] <alwrwr2003> http://freshmeat.net/projects/wget/
[02:06] <clearzen> tems: if you could give me an error # that would help
[02:06] <tems> also, the "error: microcode "bcm43xx_etc.etc.etc.etc" message keeps appearing over the top
[02:07] <clearzen> tems: try startx -- :1
[02:07] <kindofabuzz> !.bash_profile
[02:07] <tems> OK, will type them both out in full...one sec
[02:07] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bash_profile - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[02:07] <Flamekebab> soulrider__, it seems the Xorg config that's running works fairly well, but I can't find the config file it's using for it
[02:07] <carol> ok i pasted the list of servers on that website
[02:07] <Flamekebab> does Gutsy not use xorg.conf, is it now like, xorg2.conf or something?
[02:07] <Flannel> carol: Now you need to give us the URL that you get after you submit
[02:07] <tems> "Failed to start the X Server (your graphical interface).  It is likely that it is not set up correctly.  Would you like to view the X server output to diagnose the problem?"  as well as that error message, another message appeared over the top of that one and continues to repeat every 30 seconds or so .  "[xxx.xxxxxx] bcm43xx: Error: Microcode "bcm43xx_microcode5.fw" not available or load failed.
[02:07] <Flamekebab> it all comes down to "wtf is going on here..?"
[02:07] <carol> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60113/
[02:08] <kindofabuzz> where is the .bash_profile?
[02:08] <clearzen> tems: you need to blacklist the bcm43xx driver
[02:08] <ani1> kindofabuzz: ~
[02:08] <Flannel> carol: Have you actually used automatix?
[02:08] <ani1> kindofabuzz: ls -a
[02:08] <Flamekebab> is there a way to find out which xorg file is in use?
[02:08] <carol> yes for about 6 packages now
[02:08] <tems> the startx command you mentioned gives the follow.  Fatal server error: no screens found.   XIO: fatal IO error 104 (connection reset by peer) etc
[02:08] <ani1> Flamekebab: its /etc/X11/xorg.conf you may have deleted control alt backspace it will restart x and recreate your xorg.conf
[02:08] <tems> how do I blacklist the bcm driver>
[02:09] <carol> im taking it that automatrix is just a waste of space and time and could corrupt your os
[02:09] <Flannel> carol: alright, well, before upgrading, it's recommended that you backup your data, since automatix has been known to cause problems while upgrading.  There's no guarentee that it will, but its a possibility.
[02:09] <Flamekebab> carol, I've found automatix quite handy
[02:10] <ani1> tems: /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
[02:10] <egc> yay yay, gparted rocks
[02:10] <Flamekebab> and I've installed Ubuntu on countless machines
[02:10] <Flannel> carol: as for the list, it all looks in order as far as the ubuntu repos are concerned.
[02:10] <Flannel> Flamekebab: Please don't recommend automatix here.
[02:10] <ani1> Flamekebab: it could break your system
[02:10] <clearzen> twistedbeatfreek: still there?
[02:11] <clearzen> twistedbeatfreek: still there?
[02:11] <Jack_Sparrow> Flamekebab, Please do not promote that terrible script in this room
[02:11] <egc> hehe
[02:11] <tems> lol at automatix outrage
[02:11] <Flamekebab> anyone else want to tell me to lie and say I dislike the handy, if somewhat risky script?
[02:11] <LibertyShadow> tems, open the file /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist as root in your favorite text editor
[02:11] <Jack_Sparrow> !worksforme
[02:11] <ubotu> 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/
[02:12] <ani1> !automatix  > Flamekebab
[02:12] <carol> well thank you for looking.  that makes me think i either need to reboot my router and computer or just that from my location the routers inbetween me and the servers are down.
[02:12] <Flannel> Flamekebab: We're not asking you to say you dislike it, we're asking that you don't recommend it here.  Unless you personally are planning on being here 24 hours a day to support the issues it causes.
[02:12] <LibertyShadow> tems: then add "blacklist bcm43xx" to the end of it
[02:12] <clearzen> tems: try adding bcm43xx to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
[02:12] <Flamekebab> Flannel, I didn't recommend it, I just disagreed that it's always bad
[02:12] <Flannel> carol: Which servers is it saying it can't connect to?  It should give you a URL, I just need a few.
[02:12] <CTho> I'm having trouble with "sound juicer" in gutsy.  Only some of the profiles are available in the "output format" list
[02:13] <egc> I think Flamekebab is just presenting an option, which is good IMHO
[02:13] <Flamekebab> anyway, my problem was that I've removed my xorg file (well, I renamed it so there isn't one, then restarted the X server) and yet a new one hasn't been generated
[02:13] <CTho> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sound-juicer/+bug/95948 hmmm
[02:13] <xim> is it possible to make it so that themes in gnome have no effect on how webpages are displayed
[02:13] <Flamekebab> if you don't know what you're doing, don't mess with automatix, but it can be handy for installing a few things, which is why I don't hate it
[02:14] <egc> CTho: which profile are you looking for?
[02:14] <clearzen> Flamekebab: as far as I know it will not generate one. It will use the failsafe instead
[02:14] <xim> i dont see why they would anyway, but they do
[02:14] <CTho> egc: mp3
[02:14] <tems> OK - opening that file now Liberty.  Complete linux version so can you please suggest an easy built in text editor
[02:14] <daedra> xim: wtf
[02:14] <theseus_> how can i search all text files in a directory for a given phrase "eieio"
[02:14] <Flamekebab> clearzen, this is the odd thing, it's not using the fail safe
[02:14] <egc> CTho: do you have lame installed?
[02:14] <CTho> egc: yes
[02:14] <theseus_> more * | grep "eieio"
[02:14] <Flamekebab> I've never seen anything like it
[02:14] <CTho> egc: looks like a bug
[02:14] <daedra> tems: nano
[02:14] <tems> complete linux VIRGIN
[02:14] <tems> not version
[02:14] <ani1> tems: nano or use gksudo gedit if you want gui
[02:14] <Jack_Sparrow> Flamekebab, <Flamekebab> carol, I've found automatix quite handy amounts to promoting it.. Please stop
[02:14] <tems> it's 2:15am...forgive me :)
[02:14] <theseus_> find . -file_contents "eieio"
[02:14] <clearzen> Flamekebab: I've never tried renaming xorg so that may be standard behavior
[02:15] <egc> CTho: do you have the other plugins used by the mp3 gstreamer pipe installed?
[02:15] <theseus_> search_files_for "eieio" recursive-search => :true
[02:15] <Flamekebab> well the even odder thing is, it's using settings not listed in the file
[02:15] <SeaPhor> i even copied the /etc/X11/xorg.conf from this working install to a usb and shut down, unplugged this hdd and plugged in the one in question, copied the /etc/X11/xorg.conf from the usb to /etc/X11/xorg.conf on the problem drive, no change
[02:15] <CTho> egc: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-media/+bug/124437
[02:15] <Flannel> tems: Theres a "Text Editor" in your menu (under accessories, I believe)
[02:15] <xim> daedra: like they screw up the colors of some webpages, setting text color where I have to highlight it to read it
[02:15] <egc> CTho: i believe there was a id3mux one or something
[02:15] <ani1> Flamekebab: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[02:15] <xim> even ebay
[02:15] <tems> Flannel - I'm at root :)
[02:15] <LibertyShadow> tems: I also added bcm43xx to DISABLED_MODULES in /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common
[02:15] <jramsey> can K3b convert mp3 to cda before burning a cd?
[02:15] <kindofabuzz> ok made an alias in ~/.bash_aliases with the format alias alias=commad, how do i get them to work? reboot?
[02:15] <Flannel> tems: you mean a terminal?
[02:15] <carol> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60114/
[02:15] <tems> nods.  $
[02:15] <prince_jammys> theseus_: grep -r eioio startingpath
[02:15] <Flamekebab> I mean, the Xserver is using settings that it's drawing from somewhere, obviously, but I can't figure out where
[02:15] <kindofabuzz> alias alias=command
[02:16] <Flannel> tems: sudo nano /path/to/file  will open the file with the permissions you need (for normal files, ditch the sudo at the front)
[02:16] <Flamekebab> I like what it's running but I may need to switch it to a different nvidia driver to improve performance
[02:16] <CTho> egc: ah, i see
[02:16] <kindofabuzz> !alias
[02:16] <orudie> Flannel: this is what have http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60115/

[02:17] <jramsey> !K3b
[02:17] <ubotu> k3b is a feature-rich and user-friendly burning application for KDE (and, as all KDE applications, works fine on GNOME). For a guide, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/K3BHowto
[02:17] <Flannel> carol: alright, its the third party wine repo that is failing.  You should, if you plan on using third party wine in the future, use the winehq repo.  Here's a new sources.list you can use: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60116/
[02:17] <LibertyShadow> tems: So for you > gksudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist < will open the file in a gui editor... I think someone may have said this earlier.
[02:17] <Flannel> orudie: Looks good.
[02:17] <orudie> Flannel: but i didnt change it
[02:17] <LibertyShadow> tems: then add "blacklist bcm43xx"
[02:17] <orudie> Flannel: this is how it was
[02:18] <Flannel> orudie: Where was this file located?
[02:18] <Flamekebab> When I'm jumping about saying "USE AUTOMATIX! IT'S PERFECT!" you can give me stick for it without me complaining, but I see no reason why I can't just say "I find it handy on occasion" in passing without at least three of you complaining at me
[02:18] <orudie> Flannel:  /etc/default/ddclient
[02:18] <Flamekebab> is there any way of finding which xorg.conf file is currently in use?
[02:18] <egc> CTho: those plugins are contained within different packages...make sure you get the multiverse versions also to make sure you get the complete collection
[02:18] <Flannel> Flamekebab: Fair enough
[02:18] <egc> it should work
[02:18] <CTho> egc: yeah, thanks.  installing gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly-multiverse got it working
[02:19] <CTho> seems like a bug that the UI shows impossible things though
[02:19] <xoqa> in gentoo, i am able to find installed packages using "equery f <package>", is there something similar for aptitude or apt-get?
[02:19] <xoqa> apt**
[02:19] <Flannel> xoqa: apt-cache search [terms]
[02:19] <egc> CTho: it's slick from here out though ;)
[02:19] <Flannel> xoqa: oh, installde packages.  What are you trying to find out regarding them?
[02:19] <xoqa> Flannel: where an executable is
[02:19] <tems> OK - I wrote the line to the blacklist file.  Really sorry about the delays with the replies and if I miss anyhting people say.  I've spent so long in Windows I've become rusted and worn
[02:20] <clearzen> xoqa: sudo dpkg -l | grep package
[02:20] <daedra> my browser has a quirk
[02:20] <Flannel> orudie: Interesting.  And `sudo /etc/init.d/ddclient start` doesn't work?  complains about the daemon line?
[02:20] <daedra> every NEW page I visit presents me with an "Object Moved" page
[02:20] <xim> do you have to enter desktop backgrounds into Desktop Cube one at a time?
[02:20] <daedra> but links therein do not
[02:20] <xoqa> clearzen: that's nice, but it doesn't tell me where the file is located
[02:20] <ani1> xoqa: if your trying to find the path to the binary use which
[02:20] <daedra> just NEW pages
[02:20] <Flannel> xoqa: dpkg -L [package] gives you a list of files
[02:20] <ani1> xoqa: e.g. which nano
[02:20] <xoqa> ani1: that worked
[02:21] <xoqa> ani1: ty
[02:21] <ani1> xoqa: np you also can use slocate to find all occurrences of it e.g. slocate nano
[02:21] <clearzen> xoqa: locate packagename?
[02:21] <xoqa> clearzen, Flannel thanks as well
[02:21] <xoqa> clearzen: i'd have to update the slocate database for that to work
[02:21] <egc> hmm
[02:22] <xoqa> it's a fresh install
[02:22] <ani1> xoqa: man updatedb

[02:23] <Itaku> i got webmin installed and bind9 installed. im trying to get a domain called "itakupwns.com" working and how do i make it so i can go to itakupwns.com anywhere in the world?
[02:23] <egc> Cpudan80: but i'll use ubuntu to transfer the files!
[02:23] <dabbill> i just installed a fresh ubuntu on a new HD, but now my old 60gig HD is only displaying as 12gig... is there a way to find out possibly whats going on with that?
[02:23] <carol> hey flannel.  what do i type into console to edit the sources list?
[02:23] <dabbill> or what to try first
[02:23] <Flannel> carol: Do you have a GUI on the machine?
[02:23] <Cpudan80> egc: you could use dd to a direct copy of the drive (bit for bit)
[02:23] <carol> yes and terminal
[02:23] <prince_jammys> carol: gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[02:23] <Flannel> Itaku: You go to a registrar and buy that domain
[02:23] <ani1> egc: its not supported in this chan you will need to find a tut..linux is really linux the tools you would use you can find anywhere i would ask in a xbox chan
[02:24] <Flannel> carol: alt-f2, then gksu gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[02:24]  * egc gets the hint
[02:24] <tems> OK - I added those lines to the two files mentioned and I am no longer receiving that extremely annoying error over the top of my screen (Thanks for that guys!!)  Unfortunately the main problem remains - the xserver not starting.
[02:24] <carol> and how to get back to my gui?
[02:24] <Itaku> Flannel: i want to register it with bind9 installed on my system
[02:24] <Flannel> carol: What did you do to get out of it?
[02:25] <carol> ya what did you do to get backheh
[02:25] <egc> Cpudan80: that was my thinking too, except that the drives are of different capacities, so i would lose the extra space on the bigger drive
[02:25] <Flannel> carol: ctrl-alt-f7 will get you back, if you ctrl-alt-f[1-6] to get out of it.
[02:25] <carol> i already know that alt f2 goes to a full screen terminal
[02:25] <Cpudan80> egc: I really dont know - sorry
[02:25] <egc> no prob
[02:25] <Flannel> carol: no, alt-f2 just opens up a run window.
[02:25] <jramsey> carol, alt-f2 is a shortcut to run an app
[02:26] <orudie> Flannel: i added my new ip to zoneedit, still nothing :(
[02:26] <Flannel> carol: ctrl-alt-f2 takes you to a full screen terminal, and to get back, ctrl-alt-f7
[02:26] <tems> Should I post the "X server output to diagnose the problem" ?
[02:26] <stevendemorez> anyone here use puredata if so I have a question concerning puredata ubuntu and gem
[02:27] <ani1> !pastebin | tems
[02:27] <carol> alt f2 actually gives me a run application window

[02:27] <dabbill> i just installed a fresh ubuntu on a new HD, but now my old 60gig HD is only displaying as 12gig... is there a way to find out possibly whats going on with that? or what i can try first to see whats going on with that drive?

[02:29] <xphox> hey
[02:29] <jayar> I have H2 Cobra Webcamera here and I am having problem in connecting it to my ubuntu box... can someone here tell me which driver to use with this device? thanks in advance
[02:29] <Flannel> orudie: If you're able to connect via the IP, its nothing on the box, just the redirect/DNS.  It might just need time to propogate, or your browser may be caching the DNS lookup for a period of time.
[02:29] <ani1> jayar: vlc should handle that file type

[02:31] <darksky0> I get Permission Denied during some stuff regarding MySQL, even if the CHMOD gives full permissions to owner
[02:31] <jayar> I am able to make all things work except for this one
[02:31] <darksky0> ? ^^''
[02:32] <jayne> stevendemorez: yes .dat files
[02:32] <dabbill> Jack_Sparrow, it shows 3 partitions. whitch is what i had on that drive, but it is showing 2 of the partitions as 5gig ones, I never had any 5 gig partitions on that drive.
[02:33] <Jack_Sparrow> dabbill, something is seriously wrong.  I would get gparted livecd   boot that and see what it shows
[02:33] <rukubites> Kind of a technical question. 64 bit ubuntu 7.10 on a box with 2g ram 4g swap. I'm trying to allocate a process about 1.5g memory, but I run out of memory when I get above about 700mb. Is there some parameter holding me back?
[02:33] <Jack_Sparrow> !gparted
[02:33] <ubotu> GParted is a !GUI partitioning program. Type « sudo apt-get install gparted » in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted-livecd.tuxfamily.org/
[02:33] <Dipingo> Can someon tell me how I can share my windows internet connection
[02:33] <Dipingo> with Ubuntu
[02:33] <CTho> is there a way to get rhythmbox to see that i've deleted some fo the files that i have in my current playlist and remove them from the playlist?
[02:34] <stevendemorez> jayne:  well as an1 said they should play pretty much readily, totem is a good way to get them playin' no prob
[02:34] <jayne> stevendemorez: like I said nothing doing
[02:34] <clearzen> Dipingo: A router?
[02:34] <dabbill> Jack_Sparrow, okay
[02:34] <jayne> stevendemorez: I have been reading How-to's saying it works....
[02:34] <stevendemorez> jayne:  do you have the gstreamer plugins
[02:34] <xoqa> someone want to take a look at this:http://dpaste.com/40074/
[02:34] <Dipingo> yes i have a router
[02:35] <stevendemorez> jayne:  sorry 'bout that
[02:35] <jayne> stevendemorez: let me check
[02:35] <jramsey> Dipingo, http://www.ubuntugeek.com/sharing-internet-connection-in-ubuntu.html
[02:35] <tems> Thanks guys - here's the paste from the Xserver error:  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60118/
[02:35] <clearzen> xoqa: do you have the ncurses-dev installed?
[02:35] <stevendemorez> do you use synaptic or terminal to manage packages?
[02:35] <jayne> stevendemorez: both
[02:35] <xoqa> clearzen: installing it now
[02:36] <m1r> how can i install network manager icon near watch ?
[02:36] <xoqa> clearzen: that worked :)
[02:36] <stevendemorez> i dig synaptic only cause it's got a gui (I know I'm lame) make sure to have the gstreamer plugins installed
[02:36] <xoqa> clearzen: thanks
[02:36] <clearzen> xoqa: no problem
[02:37] <foibles> join #kubuntu
[02:37] <stevendemorez> jayne:  and the w32 codecs
[02:37] <xoqa> clearzen: aah, the first line "curses.h: No such file or directory"
[02:37] <jayne> stevendemorez: there are so many gstreamer plugins
[02:37] <stevendemorez> jayne  is what I've used to watch the few vcds I had
[02:37]  * xoqa takes note
[02:38] <jayne> stevendemorez: I cannot find w32 codecs in Synaptic
[02:38] <clearzen> xoqa: yep that was it =)
[02:38] <Flamekebab> this is very odd.. I can stand systems that work, systems that don't work but systems that work when they clearly shouldn't? There's no xorg.conf file in /etc/X11/ how can things be displaying at a crisp 1360x768 and not the failsafe of 800x600?!
[02:38] <stevendemorez> jayne: for the gstreamer plugins bad and ugly multiverse

[02:40] <Rolcol> How do I upgrade a Gutsy install to Hardy?
[02:40] <Pici> !hardy
[02:40] <ubotu> 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

[02:40] <SATANAS> I'm trying to create a Bootable USB Pen Drive to flash my BIOS. I have a BIOS.WPH file and since my CD drive does not work and my laptop does not have floppy I want to create a Bootable USB Flash Drive using Syslinux to flash the BIOS. How can I do that
[02:40] <clearzen> Rolcol: sudo update-manager -c -d
[02:41] <stevendemorez> jayne: for the w32 codecs check out medibuntu.org
[02:41] <Rolcol> Thanks clearzen
[02:41] <clearzen> Rolcol: sorry dist-upgrade -c -d I think
[02:41] <stevendemorez> jayne: it'll tell you how to add the repo there as well

[02:42] <clearzen> Rolcol: /sigh my bad. gksu update-manager -c -d
[02:42] <Dipingo> clearzen, I am running Ubuntu on a VMware server
[02:42] <stevendemorez> is synaptic saying that's dependent
[02:42] <stevendemorez> ?
[02:42] <Jack_Sparrow> SATANAS, risky at best...  Very few systems actually must have a flash.  Many people try it when they think they are out of options or because someone suggested it.  Be sure you need it.. 20% end up as door stops
[02:42] <stevendemorez> jayne: sorry about not directing that
[02:42] <OasisGames> Quick Q that I'm having a bit of trouble finding a simple answer to: Does the LiveCD include source packages for preinstalled software? Specifically, would the final Hardy LiveCD include the compiz-fusion-plugins-extra package?
[02:43] <Scunizi> lancerocke, FF looks good to me. better than my version..
[02:43] <jayne> stevendemorez: its just in the list when searching for gstreamer
[02:43] <super> will compiz run in virtualbox?
[02:43] <soldats> super: no
[02:43] <Jack_Sparrow> super, no
[02:43] <soldats> it has no 3d rendering
[02:43] <lancerocke> Scunizi: I cant take a screenshot of the things i need to take
[02:43] <super> :(
[02:43] <stevendemorez> jayne:  it has some really useful stuff in there I have it installed but i don't think it's the vcd support

[02:44] <Scunizi> lancerocke, that's one of the reasons why most of us stick to 32 bit. It's the headaches we like to avoid in making some/most programs behave correctly..
[02:45] <Scunizi> in 64 bit
[02:45] <lancerocke> Scunizi: thanks bro, but that really doesnt help me
[02:45] <jramsey> anyone know if K3b will burn CDA formats from an audio CD project containing all MP3 files?
[02:45] <PiPMeister> j #ubuntu-se
[02:46] <Scunizi> lancerocke, sorry.. I admire your tenacity to get it done.. .. I've never run 64 bit..
[02:46] <clearzen> jramsey: yes it will
[02:46] <jramsey> clearzen, txs; burn in progress
[02:46] <foibles> i have a partition that won't mount on startup
[02:46] <lancerocke> Scunizi: np
[02:46] <foibles> /dev/hda1    /media/hda1   ext3 blah blah
[02:46] <foibles> is the line in fstab
[02:46] <clearzen> foibles: Can you mount it manually?
[02:46] <foibles> clearzen, yeah
[02:46] <foibles> but the same line i use manually won't do it in fstab
[02:46] <foibles> clearzen,
[02:47] <clearzen> foibles: add the auto option to the line in your fstab
[02:47] <SATANAS> How to flash the BIOS from USB flash Drive
[02:47] <coleosis> whats the fstab actually do?
[02:47] <foibles> clearzen, what does that look like?

[02:48] <Scunizi> foibles, what version of ubuntu are you using ?  usually Gutsy uses UUID numbers unless you've manually rewritten fstab.. .. the auto option form clearzen might work for you
[02:48] <carol> im using xchat and the userlist is gone.. how the heck do i get it back up
[02:48] <Scunizi> carol.. he's the loco head of calif.
[02:48] <foibles> Scunizi, im using gutsy, and yeah its a manual addition
[02:48] <coleosis> foibles: Thanks.
[02:48] <foibles> Scunizi, ive noticed it uses UUID, but i don't really know how to tinker with that
[02:49] <Scunizi> carol, ctrl+f7
[02:49] <Scunizi> foibles, just another way of identifing the drive.. blkid will give you the id's of your drives & partitions.
[02:49] <carol> that dont work
[02:50] <Scunizi> carol, are you using gnome-xchat or just xchat? they are both in the repos.. xchat is more full featured
[02:50] <foibles> Scunizi, should i use UUID instead of /dev/hda1?
[02:50] <foibles> whats the difference
[02:50] <Scunizi> foibles, you might give it a try.. maybe less conflict.
[02:50] <Jack_Sparrow> !uuid
[02:50] <ubotu> To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell: « sudo blkid » (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID)
[02:50] <carol> just xchat
[02:51] <coleosis> Do you guys know of any good websites to help with the learning of Linux?
[02:51] <jrib> coleosis: help.ubuntu.com
[02:51] <jrib> !cli > coleosis (read the private message from ubotu)
[02:51] <Scunizi> carol, can you get to the top menu and click on View then but a check mark next to "user list"?
[02:51] <coleosis> !cli
[02:51] <ubotu> The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal
[02:51] <jrib> lancerocke: so what isn't working?  I'm not sure why you are showing the last link
[02:51] <xphox> wat filesharing program do some of yallz use?
[02:52] <carol> userlist buttons is checked
[02:52] <coleosis> Thanks

[02:53] <theseus> not running apt otherwise
[02:53] <ani1> theseus: is the update manager running?
[02:53] <marshall> Scunizi: they dont have them
[02:53] <lancerocke> jrib: fonts are white on top of a tan background
[02:53] <tems> thats just great.  now my computer appears to have shit itself and wont even go past the ubuntu loading screen
[02:53] <SATANAS> I'm running Ubuntu 7.10!!!!!

[02:53] <marshall> theseus: sudo apt-get ...
[02:54] <Scunizi> marshall, you can always try compiling it...
[02:54] <FAJALO1> hey all, i have firestarter to run when my computer starts up, but it is not doing so...
[02:54] <theseus> marshall: it was updated manager -- finished from yesterday
[02:54] <FAJALO1> is there something tat i could do possibly?
[02:54] <ani1> ps -A | grep firestarter

[02:55] <FAJALO1> what to do from there?
[02:55] <ani1> FAJALO1: its running
[02:56] <FAJALO1> i know it's running, but i want it to run on startup.
[02:56] <LibertyShadow> SATANAS: The format utility is windows based, but the idea is there :D
[02:56] <FAJALO1> i have it to run on startup but it's not.
[02:56] <marshall> Scunizi: configure: error: totem playlist parsing library not found or too old
[02:56] <FAJALO1> but pidgin is.
[02:56] <Scunizi> marshall, ah.. the fun of dependencies.. I'm not very good at compiling so I really can't help with that..
[02:56] <SATANAS> LibertyShadow: Thanks!
[02:57] <jrib> lancerocke: notice that a package (ia32-libs-gtk) is not in 7.10, it seems to have been incorporated into ia32-libs, so this is a bit outdated
[02:57] <lancerocke> jrib: what can i do?
[02:57] <Scunizi> marshall, you might wait until Hardy is released for upgrade.  It may have the newer version and should upgrade automatically
[02:57] <ani1> FAJALO1: System \ Preferences\ Sessions
[02:57] <FAJALO1> ani1 yah i have it set there to run on startup but it isn't
[02:58] <jrib> lancerocke: you are sure /etc/pango32/pangorc and /usr/local/bin/firefox32 are exactly as in the wiki?
[02:58] <ani1> FAJALO1: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-33615.html
[02:58] <lancerocke> jrib: it is in the guide i linked to
[02:58] <Scunizi> FAJALO1, doesn't firestarter need root access to run? if so it won't run at startup in "sessions"
[02:58] <kindofabuzz> just get a router =)
[02:58] <jrib> lancerocke: the guide is the wiki
[02:59] <tonyyarusso> Scunizi: Firestarter is just a configuration utility - it doesn't need to run in the background.
[02:59] <ani1> FAJALO1: the answer is a link in the forum pointing to here http://www.fs-security.com/docs/faq.php#trayicon
[02:59] <lancerocke> jrib: how can i tell if it is exactly how it is in the wiki?
[02:59] <crshman> hi all, i have a software raid that doesn't want to work after i rebooted. It shows all the drives however it insists on setting one drive as a slave so it won't start the array
[02:59] <jrib> lancerocke: pastebin them if you wish
[02:59] <Scunizi> tonyyarusso, ah ok.. my bad
[02:59] <crshman> any ideas?
[02:59] <lancerocke> jrib: can u tell me what to look for
[02:59] <Menfest> tonyyarusso if firestarter is not running, theres no firewall runing
[03:00] <tonyyarusso> Menfest: iptables is the firewall, and is built into the kernel.
[03:00] <tonyyarusso> !firewall | Menfest
[03:00] <ubotu> Menfest: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[03:00] <Menfest> tonyyarusso and you wont get stats of attacks and blocked ips triying to attack
[03:00] <Menfest> tonyyarusso ic
[03:00] <lancerocke> jrib: http://pastebin.com/m7787271f
[03:01] <Menfest> tonyyarusso so even the firestarted is not runing. its no problem?
[03:01] <nickrud> Menfest: you can test for yourself after booting and before running firestarter:  sudo iptables -L lists all the active iptable rules
[03:01] <tonyyarusso> Menfest: stats I'll give you - although there might be some logging level you could set.  (/me doesn't really care who's being blocked, as long as they are)
[03:01] <Menfest> nickrud ok.
[03:01] <ani1> Menfest: conky could always do that for you ;)
[03:01] <nickrud> gack. more desktop clutter
[03:01] <FAJALO1> ani1: ok so if nothing comes back then am i good?
[03:01] <Menfest> ani1 conky ?
[03:01] <ani1> lol @ nickrud
[03:02] <lancerocke> jrib: http://pastebin.com/m560abf30

[03:02] <acidburn> no
[03:02] <nickrud> !resetpanels | acidburn
[03:02] <ubotu> acidburn: To reset the panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel »
[03:03] <jrib> lancerocke: let me do this here and see if I have the same results
[03:03] <tems> OK - I've fiddles around and changed screen type to VGA and instead of getting no screens, it's getting:  (EE) VGA(0): Driver cant support depth 24.  (EE) Screen(s) found but none habe a useable configuration

[03:03] <m-c> anyone seen Firefox spew garbled text on the window instead of downloading a file?  happens when you left click a link that says "click here to download", so you can't Save Link As...  Know how to fix this?  Maybe a MIME type?
[03:04] <Menfest> ani1 nickrud tonyyarusso, how can i see the blocked connections or get alerted when ever some tries to make a connection and its blocked by my rules?
[03:04] <tems> ^^^ - is this something I can work with?  it at least seems to believe theres a display chip there now
[03:04] <acidburn> Thanks.  Got message "no processes killed"
[03:04] <marshall> Scunizi: -_-
[03:04] <nickrud> acidburn: if you do that and still don't have the panels, do   alt-f2  gnome-panel
[03:04] <Scunizi> marshall, -_- ?
[03:04] <nickrud> Menfest: then you can run firestarter, I guess. There are also various log tools that will mail you summaries
[03:04] <jakeb> Has anybody had any success building/running MonoDevelop on Gutsy?
[03:04] <acidburn> Alt-F2 doesn't do anything.
[03:04] <marshall> Scunizi: thats a depressed face
[03:05] <jakeb> MonoDevelop 1.0 thatis

[03:05] <nickrud> Menfest: but I agree with tonyyarusso , as long as they're blocked I'm happy
[03:05] <marshall> Scunizi: im crap at compiling too
[03:05] <Scunizi> marshall, ah.  emoticons I'm only partially good at....
[03:05] <Menfest> ani1 nickrud tonyyarusso, what tools exactly. and firestarter has a bug. it gets shutdown and has to manually start up.
[03:05] <marshall> Scunizi: mm
[03:05] <Menfest> nickrud ic
[03:05] <nickrud> acidburn: then open a terminal, type gnome-panel & , then type exit. Should get your panels back

[03:08] <nickrud> Menfest: you might like fwanalog , there's also logcheck which tells you much more than just firewall stuff
[03:08] <jrib> lancerocke: and now when you start firefox32 you still receive warnings immediately?
[03:08] <Menfest> nickrud ok
[03:08] <lancerocke> jrib: yes
[03:08] <Menfest> nickrud pm?
[03:08] <nickrud> Menfest: sure

[03:09] <kumarphilly> i phone $250 att.com 8gb refurb
[03:09] <jrib> lancerocke: does libnodoka.so mean anything to you?  I don't have such a file
[03:10] <lancerocke> jrib: i dont either
[03:10] <lancerocke> jrib: WAIT!
[03:10] <lancerocke> jrib: nodoka is my theme engine
[03:10] <lancerocke> jrib: nodoka is my theme
[03:10] <jrib> lancerocke: this must be it
[03:10] <lancerocke> jrib: so what can i do?
[03:11] <Spagbol> hello
[03:11] <Broam> Hello all.
[03:11] <Spagbol> can you help me
[03:11] <jrib> lancerocke: use one of the engines that is in the ia32-libs package?
[03:11] <Spagbol> im kinda a noob lol
[03:11] <Scunizi> Spagbol, you have to ask a question to get any answers..
[03:11] <Spagbol> kk
[03:11] <lancerocke> jrib: i dont think that is a fix
[03:12] <Spagbol> how do i install the kde interface?
[03:12] <acidburn> Anyone know how to add 2 panels?  I installed compizconfig and want to try the cube.  Only have 2 panels currently.
[03:12] <Scunizi> Spagbol, sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[03:12] <ani1> acidburn: ccsm
[03:12] <jrib> lancerocke: alternatively, you can figure out how ia32-libs is created and emulate that for your engine
[03:12] <Scunizi> Spagbol, then log out and change session to kde
[03:12] <jrib> lancerocke: why are you using 64bit, and not 32bit?
[03:13] <lancerocke> jrib: you have been of help. thank you. i will be back l8r
[03:13] <Spagbol> thanx
[03:13] <kindofabuzz> of subject here, but how can i make chatzilla automatically identify me with Nickserv?
[03:13] <kindofabuzz> off
[03:13] <Scunizi> jrib, sounds like he didn't want to answer the question.. probably just tinkering.
[03:14] <tems> Hey guys - I have determined that under windows my display driver is an "Intel(R) 965 Express Chipset Family" and it appears that is not one of the types on the xserver-xorg configuration
[03:14] <ani1> kindofabuzz: http://blogs.sun.com/edwingo/tags/irc otherwise google it..its in the faq
[03:15] <siraxolot> i need an xp bootsplash. i found some on kdelooks.org, but it looks like they just show screenshots. anyone know where an actual *.so of it could be?
[03:15] <acidburn> ccsm sets up compiz but don't you need to have 4 panels to use the cube?
[03:15] <tems> Any ideas on how to remedy that?  Some guy on the web had some joy typing :sudo apt-get install 915resolution xserver-xorg-video-intel
[03:15] <Kyro> hey guys
[03:15] <tems> but that doesn't work for me.
[03:15] <ani1> acidburn: right click the applet in the corner and go to prefs then click columns twice
[03:16] <Scunizi> acidburn, I use three.. nice triangle
[03:16] <ani1> heh
[03:16] <Spagbol> how do i know all drivers are installed and working?
[03:16] <fr500> tems: you installed the packaged, but did you set the resolution accordingly?
[03:17] <Scunizi> Spagbol, does it work? if so then it's good to go.
[03:17] <Spagbol> yes
[03:17] <Broam> Spagbol: Hardware Information in System can sometimes give you a clue.
[03:17] <Spagbol> sort of
[03:17] <Broam> Spagbol: what piece of hardware is acting odd?
[03:17] <Spagbol> sound and graphics
[03:17] <tems> I don't follow?  I think I set the resolution properly but I may have been wrong.  Can I check?
[03:17] <acidburn> There's no applet in any of the corners
[03:18] <Broam> Spagbol: what do you know about your sound hardware?
[03:18] <JoCo_> hey guys can someone help e
[03:18] <Broam> JoCo_: this is the place.
[03:18] <Scunizi> Spagbol, what kind of video card do you have?
[03:18] <ani1> acidburn: its the multidesktop in the (usually) bottom right
[03:18] <Spagbol> i think its ac97?
[03:18] <Broam> Spagbol: it should work just fine. Are you having issues recording?
[03:18] <JoCo_> when i boot into my linux mint partition a terminal fullscreen comes up and say hdb: drive not ready for command right after the liinux mint splash screen
[03:18] <ani1> acidburn: its called workspace switcher
[03:19] <JoCo_> then it goes idle black
[03:19] <Spagbol> no sound comes from both speakers and headphones at same time its really annoying
[03:19] <ani1> Spagbol: have you checked alsamixer to make sure mute isnt on
[03:19] <JoCo_> but my xp partition still works and the ubuntu used to i think I installed a driver or something, restarted then it was no good
[03:19] <acidburn> Bottom right has 2 panels but right click does nothing.
[03:19] <Scunizi> ani1, he gets sound out of speakers and headphones at the same time.. mute wouldn't be on.
[03:20] <Some_Person> Is there a program for Linux like Nero Vision? If there is, does it support DVD-VR?
[03:20] <LinuxMonkey> !derivatives | JoCo_
[03:20] <Broam> Spagbol: speakers and headphones at the same time?
[03:20] <ubotu> JoCo_: The following are some examples of Ubuntu derived distributions that we cannot provide support for due to repository and software changes, please consult their websites for more information: gNewSense (support in #gnewsense), Linux Mint (support in #linuxmint), LinuxMCE (support in #linuxmce), Ubuntu Ultimate
[03:20] <pau2> why are all my videos playing black and white?
[03:20] <Spagbol> i meant sound comes from both
[03:20] <Spagbol> not no sound sorry
[03:20] <ani1> eh my mistake i misread
[03:20] <JoCo_> LinuxMonkey: alright thanks anyway
[03:20] <Scunizi> Some_Person, what is DVD-VR?
[03:20] <Broam> Spagbol: lemme think...
[03:20] <dabbill> I just tried the gparted live CD, it sees my 60gig as a 13gig, i also checked my bios and now my bios is seeing it as a 13gig as well.
[03:21] <Broam> dabbill: 13 gig isn't a barrier, something else is going on therre.
[03:21] <Some_Person> Scunizi: It is a non-standard format for DVDs
[03:21] <ncfi1013> hi i cant mount my ipod in amarok or get my bookmark links to work in konqueror.
[03:21] <Spagbol> yeah sounds quite dodgy if bios is reading it as that
[03:21] <acidburn> Anyone know how to add 2 panels to the desktop?  Have 2 and want 4.
[03:21] <dabbill> Broam, i know, thats what i am tryin to figure out, but i dont know what to try to see whats going on
[03:22] <Broam> dabbill: do you have data on that drive, or is it brand new/formatted?
[03:22] <MUS4SHIII> hi all
[03:22] <jfenwick> hello all, what is the simplest command to ask what kind of hard drives I have in my computer?
[03:22] <Some_Person> Scunizi: It would highly convience me if such program would support it, as my TV's DVD burner records to DVD-RAMs in the -VR format.
[03:23] <Broam> jfenwick: "df -h"
[03:23] <dabbill> Broam, my old linux install, i got a bigger drive today, installed linux on it, hooked up the 60gig to copy my old files off it, but its only being seen as a 13gig, and i cant get my files off it
[03:23] <tems> Any ideas on how to remedy that?  Some guy on the web had some joy typing :sudo apt-get install 915resolution xserver-xorg-video-intel.  didn't work for me though as it said no such package.  is there a way to put the driver on a cd maybe and transfer it over?
[03:23] <pau2> anyone?
[03:23] <Broam> dabbill: Did you have multiple partitions?
[03:23] <Broam> pau2: repeat question?
[03:23] <Scunizi> Some_Person, I was just checking for some links.. I don't know if this will help but.. http://lifehacker.com/software/linux/rip-dvds-in-linux-the-semi+easy-way-330983.php
[03:23] <jfenwick> Broam: I tried that, but it doesn't tell me what kind of device it is. Like, I want know whether it's a Western Digital, etc
[03:23] <tems> Hey guys - I have determined that under windows my display driver is an "Intel(R) 965 Express Chipset Family" and it appears that is not one of the types on the xserver-xorg configuration
[03:23] <dabbill> Broam, yes
[03:23] <Broam> jfenwick: System -> Hardware inforrmation
[03:23] <pau2> all my videos are playing black and white
[03:23] <Broam> dabbill: would that do it?
[03:23] <Broam> dabbill: did you have one 13GiB partition?
[03:24] <Broam> dabbill: it might be that one of the other partitions just simply isn't mounte
[03:24] <jfenwick> Broam: cool, thanks
[03:24] <Broam> pau2: what codec/forrmat?
[03:24] <dabbill> Broam, it shows the 3 partitions, 2 are 5gig
[03:24] <Some_Person> Scunizi: I have no need to rip DVDs
[03:24] <Scunizi> Some_Person, just burn?
[03:24] <Broam> dabbill: whoa, wtf
[03:24] <dabbill> Broam, but i never had any 5gig partitions on it
[03:24] <Palace_Chan> anybody here use alpine mail client ?
[03:24] <Spagbol> also im having problems using my ext hard drive
[03:24] <Some_Person> Scunizi: Correct.
[03:24] <dabbill> Broam, yea thats what i am sayin lol
[03:24] <Broam> Spagbol: fire away
[03:24] <pau2> Broam: right now I am playing a DVD
[03:24] <Broam> dabbill: what file system?
[03:24] <MUS4SHIII> I'm having problem mounting a drive in fstab. It won't start on boot, but mounts great after "sudo mount -a" here is the fstab line in question: mythtvfs#/media/Storage/Media/RecordedTV	/mnt/mythtvfs fuse	user,auto,host=127.0.0.1 0 0
[03:24] <pau2> and its b/w
[03:24] <Some_Person> Scunizi: I would like to burn AVI files to DVDs
[03:24] <Spagbol> well i just cant use it
[03:25] <froek> my ssl cert stuff for postfix got all messed up after apt-get dist-upgrade.. is there something I need to re-enable.. something about modules
[03:25] <dabbill> Broam, ext3
[03:25] <Broam> pau2: That is really strange. Have you tried multiple dvds?
[03:25] <Scunizi> Some_Person, AVI to dvd should be able to be done with k3b
[03:25] <dabbill> Broam, and swap
[03:25] <Spagbol> yeah it wont mount
[03:25] <pau2> Broam: yes
[03:26] <froek> is there some command to run after dist-upgrade? something about re-enabling modules?
[03:26] <Some_Person> Scunizi: Is k3b a KDE program? :| I don't like to use KDE programs in GNOME unless absolutely necessary.
[03:26] <MUS4SHIII> anyone know about mythtvfs?
[03:26] <dabbill> Broam, its almost like the firmware on the drive got hosed
[03:26] <Broam> pau2: what video carrd do you have?
[03:26] <Broam> dabbill: entirely possible. Have you tried a live cd?
[03:26] <Some_Person> Scunizi: Also, does k3b support DVD-VR?
[03:27] <Spagbol> so my external hdd wont mount and its formatted under ntfs
[03:27] <ghostnob> hi
[03:27] <Broam> dabbill: what's the drive interface? IDE?
[03:27] <Palace_Chan> anybody know how i can check email on alpine very often ? so like  continuously ? right now i have to keep a browser window open all the time
[03:27] <dabbill> Broam, IDE
[03:27] <dabbill> Broam, current system drive is SATA
[03:27] <Scunizi> Some_Person, it is.. there's also gnome-baker or something similar.. never tried DVD-VR in k3b.. but on reading looks like the VR format just allows editing.. is that the only format dvd that your player supports?
[03:27] <dabbill> Broam, IDE as secondary
[03:27] <pau2> Broam: Intel graphics.... it was working well and then all of a sudden it went b/w
[03:28] <Broam> pau2: recent upgrades?  how's heat?
[03:28] <Some_Person> Scunizi: My recorder will only read DVD-RAMs if they are recorded in the -VR format. And I am able to record in -VR mode in Nero Vision on Windows.
[03:28] <Broam> dabbill: How are you connecting the IDE drive?
[03:28] <pau2> Broam: nothing that I know of
[03:28] <dabbill> straight to the mobo
[03:29] <Broam> pau2: there was an intel card patch recently. I don't have any intel hardware
[03:29] <dabbill> Broam, Almost wondering if i dont have it fully pluged in or some thing stupid
[03:29] <Broam> pau2: but I figured I'd least be able to triage.
[03:29] <Scunizi> Some_Person, I've been searching www.google.com/linux  .. ever tried that link? It can help narrow down things to just linux apps.
[03:29] <Some_Person> Scunizi: heh, i forgot about google linux
[03:29] <Broam> dabbill: Rule #1. Check the cable. Rule #2. No seriously, it's cheap and fails a lot. CHECK THE CABLE :)
[03:29] <pau2> Broam: but why would it work and then just break like this?
[03:29] <Broam> pau2: driver bug if you updated. Or something spontaneously failed in your hardware.
[03:30] <dabbill> Broam, lol i know all to well about that
[03:30] <Karsyth> configure: error: A working installation of Ogg Vorbis could not be found. obviously that means i need to get Ogg Vorbis, so i checked Synaptic and installed what seemed to be codecs for Ogg Vorbis but what im trying to compile is still saying i dont have it.
[03:30] <Karsyth> anyone point me in the right direction?
[03:30] <Broam> pau2: I'm sorta struggling to figure out why it would do that.
[03:30] <dabbill> Broam, its just hard to get to this case and i am being lazy =p
[03:30] <dabbill> Broam, BRB checking the cable lol
[03:30] <Broam> Karsyth: they should just come with.  But you might need the development headesr
[03:30] <LibertyShadow> Scunizi, this one is fun: http://www.google.com/intl/xx-hacker/
[03:30] <Broam> Karsyth: what program are you using ./configure on?
[03:31] <Karsyth> Broam: im trying to install stepmaniacvs
[03:31] <Karsyth> Broam: and im doing it from source because the other one is ghetto
[03:31] <Broam> Karsyth: You need the libvorbis development headers...
[03:31] <Karsyth> Broam: alright
[03:32] <Broam> Karsyth: you should be able to find them as something like libvorbis-dev
[03:32] <Broam> Karsyth: does stepmania use SDL?
[03:32] <Some_Person> Scunizi: hmmm, looks like there is no -VR support in Linux :-(
[03:32] <Karsyth> Broam: im not sure what SDL is, how would i find out if it does?
[03:32] <MUS4SHIII> anyone know about quakenet.org? Every channel I've joined there has lots of people, but no activity at all. Do I need a user/pass or something to see the activity in the channel? I'm very new to IRC.
[03:32] <Broam> Karsyth: if there's a version in the package repos, check its dependencies
[03:33] <spartan7> have a problem with my vid card mobile intel(r) GMA X3100 on ubuntu gusty can anyone help?
[03:33] <Broam> Lots of problems with intel chips today
[03:33] <Fishscene> Spartan, we will need to know what the problem is first <.<
[03:33] <Broam> MUS4SHIII: there's a lot mroe people herer than the ones who arer talking. They could just be idle
[03:33] <Spagbol> kubuntu desktop is gunna take up lots of space lol
[03:34] <MUS4SHIII> I guess so.
[03:34] <Broam> MUS4SHIII: it's kinda off topic, but check their mailing lists to see when they're most active
[03:34] <MUS4SHIII> anyone know anything about mythtvfs mounting in the fstab?
[03:34] <Broam> MUS4SHIII: this place doesn't rreally ever stop hopping
[03:34] <spartan7> cannot change any res or screen, no dual screen or extended desktop or advanced settings like fusion
[03:34] <Some_Person> Scunizi: looks like i'm forced to either use my scratched up -RWs or go to Windows :-(
[03:34] <MUS4SHIII> I've noticed
[03:34] <MUS4SHIII> lots of linux help needed I guess
[03:35] <nickrud> not counting the op spam
[03:35] <Fishscene> Spartan, you will need to probably manually edit the list of resolutions. For multi-monitor, I was only able to get it working by using a propriatery driver from my card's manufacturer
[03:35] <m1r> i am upgradeing to 7.10 from livecd and system ask me if i want change /etc/login.defs , should i accept ?
[03:36] <Broam> Some_Person: I wonder if DVD-VR is one of those standards that's locked down.
[03:36] <Broam> m1r: Give it a shot.
[03:36] <m1r> broam tnx
[03:36] <ythe1300> Hi all

[03:36] <tems> Hey guys - I have determined that under windows my display driver is an "Intel(R) 965 Express Chipset Family" and it appears that is not one of the types on the xserver-xorg configuration
[03:36] <m1r> broam ok
[03:36] <spartan7> this is what i have found http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=3451249
[03:36] <tems> Any ideas on how to remedy that?  Some guy on the web had some joy typing :sudo apt-get install 915resolution xserver-xorg-video-intel.  didn't work for me though as it said no such package.  is there a way to put the driver on a cd maybe and transfer it over?
[03:36] <spartan7> will this still work?
[03:37] <Krozy> I just started using GPG.  What are some good practices regarding the private key in terms of storage and backup?  Should I keep it on my workstation, or on external media?
[03:37] <spartan7> we have the same prob terms:
[03:37] <Broam> m1r: if you didn't modify this file, go ahead and let it update
[03:37] <Fishscene> Without going too much into details here, it's worth a shot
[03:37] <Some_Person> Scunizi: locked down?
[03:37] <m1r> broam , i never touched it , i set change now
[03:37] <Broam> Krozy: To be honest there's a lot of talk about smart cards these days. too bad the readerrs are pricey
[03:37] <Broam> m1r: usually a good sign
[03:38] <ncfi1013> i cant get my ipod 3rd gen to mount on desktop, amarok to open, or get my bookmark links to open in konqueror
[03:38] <m1r> broam, still 2:40 to wait :)
[03:38] <MUS4SHIII> can anyone help me with mounting mythtvfs in my fstab?
[03:38] <spartan7> tems: this is the website I got to with somekinda info on our problem
[03:39] <spartan7> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=3451249
[03:39] <dabbill> Broam, Changed the IDE cable, and still bios seeing it as a 13gig.
[03:39] <tems> thanks mate!!
[03:39] <ncfi1013> PLEASE HELP?!
[03:39] <Broam> Krozy: the only thing I can ercommend is making a revocation certificate, putting it on some cheap USB thumb drive (floppy disk, etc.) and giving it to a trusted party (safe deposit box, lawyer)
[03:39] <Fishscene> Spartan, did you try that?
[03:39] <Broam> ncfi1013: you have 3 problems. :)
[03:39] <RedHeron> ncfi1013:  What have you found on Google?
[03:39] <tems> If you were in the same room, I'd offer you some of this joint, but you'll have to make-do with thanks
[03:39] <Krozy> Broam: So if I had the resources, you'd recommend setting up smart cards?  Wouldn't I need a reader, or a portable one to decrypt from each machine I use?
[03:40] <Spagbol> does anyone know how to defrag in ubuntu
[03:40] <Broam> Krozy: Yes. You would need a reader at each machine, with drivers.
[03:40] <Fishscene> Spagbol, why?
[03:40] <jrib> Spagbol: you don't
[03:40] <dooley> lol
[03:40] <Broam> Spagbol: you generally don't need to unless it's a FAT32 filesystem
[03:40] <squidink> Spagbol: no need for ext
[03:40] <Spagbol> cuz im using wubi
[03:40] <Omlette> Spagbol: you don't. :)
[03:40] <ncfi1013> i don't know what to look for
[03:40] <Spagbol> and i want to increae the performance a bit
[03:40] <Broam> Krozy: if you get a rreader with a pinpad you can not even type your pin on the host system.
[03:40] <Spagbol> why
[03:40] <FAJALO1> where does preload normally download  and install to?
[03:41] <spartan7> NOPE NOT YET 2nd day with ubuntu and 3rd day on IRC
[03:41] <sin|g|> hey what is the easiest way to web- enable a java program
[03:41] <Fishscene> Spagbol, the filesystem is considered to be good enough to not have to defrag
[03:41] <Broam> Krozy: but the low-hanging-fruit answer is "make a backup revocation certificate in case your computer is stolen/confiscated"
[03:41] <sin|g|> is a java applet the best way to go ?
[03:41] <Tixer> How can I ping something using a specific interface?
[03:41] <RedHeron> ncfi1013:  Hold on, I'll see if I can find a URL for you.
[03:41] <ythe1300> Hey has anyone seen a driver for the ATi 3870HDs yet?
[03:41] <Spagbol> what how srely its the same as anything else
[03:41] <Broam> Spagbol: I've been using a computer since Dapper and it's 1.3% fragmented
[03:41] <MUS4SHIII> can anyone help me with my fstab?
[03:41] <Spagbol> the more files are fragmented the longer the access times
[03:41] <RedHeron> ncfi1013:  http://www.ubuntux.org/how-to-use-an-ipod-with-ubuntu
[03:41] <Krozy> Broam: I will keep those thoughts in mind for future use on the card reader.  But will likely pursue the revocation certificate in the short term
[03:41] <Broam> Spagbol: the file system takes pains to not fragment files
[03:41] <FAJALO1> where does ubuntu normally install to?
[03:41] <RedHeron> See if that helps?
[03:41] <Fishscene> Spagbol, I personally would think so too, but without a utility to view the fragmentation, I can only go by what others say
[03:42] <Broam> Krozy: the gpg documentation is pretty good.  FSFE has a lot of docs on the smartcard
[03:42] <ncfi1013> ok thanks redheron
[03:42] <sin|g|> how hard is it to rewrite a java program to a java applet ?
[03:42] <FAJALO1> where does preload normally install to?
[03:42] <Spagbol> so your saying the filesystem stops files from getting fragmented?
[03:42] <Spagbol> in the first place
[03:42] <zcat[1]> Spagbol: yep..
[03:42] <Spagbol> thats very cool
[03:42] <Omlette> Yep.
[03:42] <Fishscene> lol
[03:42] <ythe1300> yep
[03:42] <dabbill> Broam, Changed the IDE cable, and still bios seeing it as a 13gig, any other ideas what i can try?
[03:42] <Spagbol> lol
[03:42] <Omlette> It's all how the filesystem works.
[03:43] <Broam> dabbill: Hmm..
[03:43] <zcat[1]> ntfs is supposed to do that too.. linux has always done it better though
[03:43] <Fishscene> Dabbil, what is your issue?
[03:43] <spartan7> Fishscene: any help would be greatly appreciated
[03:43] <Tixer> How can I test a specific interface for internet connectivity?
[03:43] <Spagbol> jumpers on hdd
[03:43] <MUS4SHIII> check jumpers
[03:43] <Fishscene> Spartan, did you try the links you posted?
[03:43] <Broam> Fishscene: he's got a 60GB disk with 3 partitions showing up as 13GB in BIOS
[03:43] <Fishscene> Dabbil, what Musashii said
[03:43] <squidink> Spagbol: but have you defraged your windows FS that is hosting wubi?
[03:43] <ritalin> hai
[03:43] <ncfi1013> what about getting amarok to open or my bookmarks in konqueror to open
[03:43] <Spagbol> yep
[03:43] <Fishscene> Double check those jumpers
[03:43] <ritalin> ubuntu rules
[03:43] <spartan7> no i don't know what to do. don't understand it
[03:43] <dabbill> jumpers never got moved when when i was useing it as my main drive
[03:43] <RedHeron> ncfi1013:  Have to get iPod to recognize first.
[03:43] <dabbill> the cable never even got taken off
[03:43] <Spagbol> maybe its fallen out
[03:44] <Spagbol> sometimes they get very loose
[03:44] <ncfi1013> what about getting amarok to open or getting my bookmarks in konqueror to open
[03:44] <dabbill> i just disabled it in the bios when i installed on my new drive
[03:44] <cottima> is the repo flash-plugin 64-bit?
[03:44] <RedHeron> ncfi1013:  One issue at a time. :-)
[03:44] <Fishscene> Make sure it's set to Master/Slave/Cable Select (whichever is appropriate)
[03:44] <Broam> cottima: it's wrapped.  So no.
[03:44] <MUS4SHIII> if it is seen that way in bios it must be hardware related
[03:44] <Broam> dabbill: do you have another computer that you can try the drive in? I'm looking for easy solutions before I go "wow this thing is toasted"
[03:44] <ythe1300> Hey when you use apt-get where does the exicutable usually  go?
[03:44] <digerati> Quick question, why would someone choose to install Ubuntu Server 5.10 instead of the most recent release? Is it because of the LTS?
[03:44] <RedHeron> ncfi1013: If it can't see the iPod, then it can't import... if Ubuntu can see it, then perhaps amarok has a chance.
[03:44] <spartan7> Fishscene: 2nd day with ubuntu so im very green with ubuntu
[03:45] <MUS4SHIII> try a different cable, maybe that one got crimped or something
[03:45] <dabbill> no ide ports on my windows computer :(
[03:45] <digerati> spartan7, welcome!
[03:45] <Fishscene> Spartan, understandable
[03:45] <Spagbol> im thinking a bios update if its not latest or somethings wrong with hardware eg hdd ram motherboard
[03:45] <Broam> digerati: 6.06 is LTS, not 5.10
[03:45] <Spagbol> doubtful processor
[03:45] <Starnestommy> ythe1300: it variesm but it's usually in /usr/bin.  "dpkg -L package" will tell you exactly what files installed
[03:45] <zcat[1]> digerati: 6.06 is LTS.. so not even that makes sense
[03:45] <MUS4SHIII> have you smart tested the drive?
[03:45] <spartan7> thnx, 3rd day with IRC to boot LOL
[03:45] <digerati> erm, my bad
[03:45] <Starnestommy> *varies,
[03:45] <cottima> broam wrapped?  it will still work on 64-bit though, right?
[03:45] <Broam> dabbill: Hmm. BIOS update might be in order.
[03:45] <Fishscene> Spartan, are there any proprietary drivers available for your video card?
[03:45] <Broam> cottima: yes, as a 32-bit program. It's kinda crashy from what I hearr
[03:45] <Spagbol> yes i am useful lol
[03:46] <zambaroo> hi ya'all
[03:46] <dabbill> Broam, but it was working fine less then 4 hours ago :(
[03:46] <Broam> cottima: I don't use flash (I use Gnash on one machine) so I don't know
[03:46] <spartan7> not that I know of other than the expirementalty one running right now from intel
[03:46] <Broam> Spagbol: even day 1 someone brings information to the table
[03:46] <Fishscene> Spartan, I have to take care of something. brb
[03:46] <spartan7> Experimental*
[03:46] <zambaroo> has anyone managed to compile the shfs module under gutsy?
[03:46] <spartan7> kk
[03:46] <ncfi1013> do i plug in the ipod then open amarok or vice versa
[03:46] <Spagbol> well im only a linux noob lol
[03:46] <Krozy> Broam: Thanks a lot!
[03:46] <ncfi1013> im using kubuntu
[03:47] <zcat[1]> Broam: how much does gnash work with? gootube? homestarrunner ? weebls stuff?
[03:47] <cottima> broam yep, I haven't been a while since I have been able to use linux and I remember flash 9 crashing on fedora.  thanks.  by the way does gnash do most sites?
[03:47] <tiptoe_ice> hello rom
[03:47] <ythe1300> Starnestommy: Thanks I'll check it out
[03:47] <tiptoe_ice> room
[03:47] <Spagbol> hey
[03:47] <RedHeron> ncfi1013:  Follow the instructions?
[03:48] <tems> Hey guys - I have determined that under windows my display driver is an "Intel(R) 965 Express Chipset Family" and it appears that is not one of the types on the xserver-xorg configuration
[03:48] <zcat[1]> at least when flash crashes now it's pretty easy to kill and restart firefox..
[03:48] <digerati> hi tiptoe_ice
[03:48] <Broam> zcat[1]: I hear that if you have ffmpeg installed you can view youtube. The gNewSense guys got it working
[03:48] <ythe1300> tiptoe_ice: Hey
[03:48] <tems> Any ideas on how to remedy that?  Some guy on the web had some joy typing :sudo apt-get install 915resolution xserver-xorg-video-intel.  didn't work for me though as it said no such package.  is there a way to put the driver on a cd maybe and transfer it over?
[03:48] <Broam> cottima: If it doesn't crash I'd say it works better.  right-click exit blows my mind
[03:48] <cottima> Thank you Broam.
[03:48] <Broam> tems: try searching for it (sudo aptitude search)
[03:48] <MUS4SHIII> anyone have any fstab experience?
[03:49] <spartan7> tems your vid card is a mobile intel(r) GMA X3100  ????
[03:49] <Omlette> I only have experience breaking fstab, sorry.
[03:49] <zambaroo> hahaha
[03:49] <Broam> cottima: it has gotten more stable since fiesty.
[03:49] <zambaroo> yah mon, man fstab
[03:49] <Broam> MUS4SHIII: pastebin
[03:49] <Spagbol> whats fstab?
[03:49] <Broam> MUS4SHIII: and I'll see if I can take a look at it.
[03:49] <tacosalad> so i have two laptops, i took the hard drive out of one and put it into the other, when i load ubuntu in recovery mode, what do i need to type to load up all the default drivers so i can start ubuntu regular and then put on the correct drivers for laptop 2:?
[03:49] <MUS4SHIII> this is the only part I need help with:
[03:49] <Broam> Spagbol: file system table. a configuration file for disks and mount points and options
[03:49] <MUS4SHIII> mythtvfs#/media/Storage/Media/RecordedTV	/mnt/mythtvfs fuse	user,auto,host=127.0.0.1 0 0
[03:49] <tems> it just says Intel (R) 965 experience family chipset in device manager under windows
[03:50] <Spagbol> kk
[03:50] <spartan7> go to video settings adapter
[03:50] <Broam> tacosalad: drivers should autodetect. I've had decent experience moving installs to differrent machines (same arch)
[03:50] <Broam> tacosalad: unless you're using binary / restricted driversr
[03:51] <theseus_> anyone know how to install mod_proxy on ubuntu
[03:51] <spartan7> mine says the same but under adapter it says a mobile intel(r) GMA X3100  ????
[03:51] <theseus_> the apache room says debian sucks
[03:51] <theseus_> and they have no idea how ubuntu does it
[03:51] <jrib> theseus_: what version of ubuntu
[03:51] <tems> I will boot into windows and check spartan
[03:51] <tacosalad> broam - yea i think i am, the display is crazy on this other laptop
[03:51] <tacosalad> cant see anything at all
[03:51] <theseus_>  2.6.22-14-server
[03:51] <Fishscene> ok back
[03:52] <Broam> tacosalad: how much memory is in the other laptop, and are you using a livecd or is it installed?
[03:52] <spartan7> cool
[03:52]  * Broam really wants to sign off soon so he can play with his OLPC XO-1
[03:52] <tacosalad> installed, its the hard drive swapped
[03:52] <spartan7> Fishscene: cool have you come across this prob before?
[03:52] <jrib> !version | theseus_
[03:52] <ubotu> theseus_: To find out what version of Ubuntu you have, type « lsb_release -a » in a !shell
[03:52] <tacosalad> i think laptop1 used restricted nvdia drivers? how can i turn those off from recovery boot?
[03:52] <jrib> theseus_: that's your kernel
[03:52] <Broam> tacosalad: hmm. Display crazy... have you tried sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg in text mode?
[03:52] <Broam> tacosalad: they won't be on in recovery-boot
[03:52] <Fishscene> Spartan, looking up info...
[03:52] <tacosalad> broam: i will right now
[03:52] <theseus_> Ubuntu 7.10
[03:53] <theseus_> fiesty-fawn
[03:53] <tems> broam: what am I searching for with that command?
[03:53] <theseus_> gutsy
[03:53] <spartan7> Fishscene: thnx
[03:53] <theseus_> soory
[03:53] <MUS4SHIII> can anyone help with my fstab? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60120/
[03:53] <Broam> tems: (you can also search in synaptic) the intel video drives
[03:53] <jrib> theseus_: mod_proxy is available when you install apache2 through the repos.  Just enable it with 'sudo a2enmod proxy'
[03:53] <Broam> tems: it's going ot have xorg or xserver in i, possibly intel
[03:53] <Fishscene> Spartan, yes, Ubuntu seems to have trouble detecting screen resolutions (at least on flatscreen monitors)
[03:54] <spartan7> Broam: gives an expiremental driver for that vid card
[03:54] <Fishscene> Spartan, try this: http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/ubuntu-help/73188-cant-change-resolution-ubuntu.html
[03:54] <Broam> spartan7: Hmm. Is that the one you're using?
[03:54] <tems> I don't get anything if I type: sudo aptitude search intel
[03:54] <spartan7> yea
[03:54] <Broam> tems: Hmm. you and spartan have the same problem I see
[03:55] <Broam> MUS4SHIII: # is a comment...
[03:55] <tems> This is my easy problem.  My other laptop's display driver won't even let me get to this stage...it's not supported at all
[03:55] <MUS4SHIII> ahh
[03:55] <tems> Just trying to get this installed on my gf's laptop
[03:55] <MUS4SHIII> but it does mount with "sudo mount -a", it just doesn't work on boot up
[03:56] <ncfi1013> ok sorry new to all this and confused the link you sent me didn't load in the loading progress window and the ipod still isn't showing on the desktop and amarok still isn't opening
[03:56] <Broam> MUS4SHIII: it looks like it should be /media/Storage/Media/RecordedTV  /mnt/mythtvfs
[03:56] <Spagbol> wow kubuntu is kool
[03:56] <nickrud> !gutsysources | tems (if aptitude can't find intel, you have at least universe and main unselected)
[03:56] <Broam> MUS4SHIII: hmm. maybe it's trying to mount before the server is started?
[03:56] <ubotu> tems (if aptitude can't find intel, you have at least universe and main unselected): gutsysources is in System->Admin->Software Sources, enable (main) (universe) (restricted) and (multiverse) and disable the Cdrom on the Ubuntu Software tab. On the Updates tab, enable (gutsy-security) and (gutsy-updates).
[03:57] <Broam> MUS4SHIII: you could add something ot /etc/rc.local I think. Ask the channel, I don't know much about startup scripts yet
[03:57] <tems> I have no access to xserver at all
[03:57] <RedHeron> ncfi1013:  dmesg | grep Apple
[03:57] <Broam> tems: recovery console you can test X by typing "startx"
[03:57] <RedHeron> ncfi1013:  That as one command
[03:57] <tems> broam: I posted the error messages
[03:57] <Broam> tems: don't do that a lot as you are starting an X session as root
[03:57] <tems> broam: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60118/
[03:57] <Broam> tems:  I missed, repost? thanks
[03:57] <MUS4SHIII>  /etc/rc.local is that my msconfig?
[03:58] <Broam> MUS4SHIII: ask channel where you would put a command that you want to rrun at startup at the end of your startup tasks
[03:58] <Broam> MUS4SHIII: I'm quite certain it's trying to mount a disk when the server ris not running yet.  It's a hack but if it works, more power to it
[03:58] <MUS4SHIII> anyone know how to run a startup bash command as root without being asked for password?
[03:58] <Fishscene> sudo?

[04:00] <Broam> tems: Hmm. try "nv" instead of "nvidia" as your driver

[04:00] <InadeArg> hi guys, i need some help with remounting a usb with read-write permisions after suspend (8.04 alpha6)

[04:01] <bmclean> does anyone have any idea why on a fresh install of 7.10, after selecting proprietary driver nvidia, ubuntu stalls during startup at the screen loading startup scripts in /etc/rc.local or something? My nVidia GeForce4 MX 4000 is supposed to be supported but the binaries, nvidia-glx and legacy all dont work.
[04:01] <Ashfire908> Broam: k
[04:01] <Broam> bmclean: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, pick "nv" as your driver. It has no 3d accel but it will work long enough for you to figurer out what's going on
[04:02] <Broam> Ashfire908: what video hardwarer?

[04:04] <eubenesa> Broam: i did that
[04:04] <eubenesa> Broam: now what?

[04:05] <Broam> bmclean: it's disappointing
[04:05] <bmclean> Broam: hmmm new motherboard not an option.
[04:05] <MiconFrink> ubotu: it's a device specific thing that needs patches that don't belong in the main kernel.
[04:05] <Broam> bmclean: Trust me, I've been fighting with that for a long time. I don't have 3d accel on any machine due to binary blobs
[04:05] <individual_eleve> i have done it before but it wasnt the way i wanted it..
[04:06] <ani1> MiconFrink: thats a bot not a real person if its specific then ask the question if somebody knows they will answer

[04:06] <tems> nickrud: you asked me about Intel 965 ??
[04:06] <Zach_> is there an irc chat for backtrack?   this is the only thing i could find that actually had people in it

[04:06] <InadeArg> thanks anil
[04:06] <InadeArg> Ill try

[04:07] <jayne> still no VCD playback
[04:07] <jayne> this is very frustrating
[04:07] <Zach_> so i take it no one here knows of a backtrack chat?
[04:07] <Broam> jayne: are you getting an error through totem/xine?
[04:07] <jayne> something so basic not working
[04:07] <bmclean> Braom: ok, so if one HAD to use binary drivers and it HAD to work (we do geophyics visualisations in 3D) what card would you perhaps suggest?
[04:07] <Broam> vcd is mpeg-based. You might need ffmpeg
[04:07] <individual_eleve> i havent tried it...how do i shrink it?it still has windows installed..i once used wubi..
[04:08] <ythe1300> Has anyone come across a Driver for the ATi 38XX cards?

[04:17] <tritium> How hard is it to type one more letter?
[04:17] <kumarphilly> umm

[04:18] <individual_eleve> can i use my old hd to run ubuntu?i have a pc with 80 g hd,and i have an old hd from my old pc that runs win95,can i still use it?
[04:18] <ubotu> kumarphilly: English is a language with rules, grammar, and correct spellings.  Please don't abuse it with AIM-speak and misspelling common words because you are lazy or just being stupid.
[04:18] <kumarphilly> porr fella
[04:18] <kumarphilly> DUDE THIS IS A CHAT ROOM NOT ENGLISH CLASS
[04:18] <Broam> kumarphilly: There is a code of conduct for ubuntu. It is optional but we do expect rules of decorum if you do not sign it.
[04:18] <tuvook> individual_eleve, saying it has win95 on it tell us nothing relevent
[04:19] <ani1> shawn__: use paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste your conf its too much for the chan to display and you will be temp banned for flooding
[04:19] <Broam> individual_eleve: how big is that old hard disk that has/had w95 on it?
[04:19] <tritium> shawn__: I told you to use pastebin

[04:19] <Broam> individual_eleve: yes.
[04:19] <kumarphilly> i was askign before i got kicked eh?

[04:19] <ubotu> The Ubuntu Code of Conduct to which we ask all Ubuntu users to adhere can be found at http://www.ubuntu.com/community/conduct/
[04:19]  * Broam has signed it.
[04:19] <kumarphilly> interesting
[04:19] <tritium> kumarphilly: next time it'll be more than just a kick
[04:19] <tuvook> someone wants to be banned
[04:19] <kumarphilly> how do you sign it
[04:20] <RedHeron> Broam:  How does one go about signing it?
[04:20] <Broam> There are many ways. The easiest way uses GPG keys
[04:20] <kumarphilly> tritium, isnt there somethign in that you cant threat me for no reason?
[04:20] <Broam> and a launchpad account doesn't hurt
[04:20] <ani1> ^
[04:20] <ani1> thats how
[04:20] <prettyricky> is there a way to change the screen that comes up to enter the user name and password
[04:20] <kumarphilly> i haev a launch pad account
[04:20] <ani1> then reg a gpg key
[04:20] <tritium> kumarphilly: there were none
[04:20] <Broam> prettyricky: yes... System -> administration -> Login Window
[04:20] <kumarphilly> tritium> kumarphilly: next time it'll be more than just a kick
[04:20]  * RedHeron does as well... but the gpg keys got wiped out, and I can't find the USB key with my revokes on it. :-(
[04:21] <kumarphilly> so what is it
[04:21] <prettyricky> where can I download new ones and how in the world do I install them?
[04:21] <individual_eleve> broam:i think it has 2.1 g
[04:21] <kumarphilly> a random statement in the air?
[04:21] <individual_eleve> can i still use it?
[04:21] <kumarphilly> i honestly try to keep cool
[04:21] <kumarphilly> but theres a point
[04:21] <Broam> individual_eleve: to be strictly honest...you *could* but it'd be kinda silly
[04:21] <tritium> kumarphilly: that's certainly not for no reason.  You need to watch your tone.  No more all-caps screaming at me.
[04:21] <kumarphilly> where people abbuse there power
[04:21] <tuvook> time to use ignore?
[04:21] <individual_eleve> i see,well so much for that?
[04:21] <LibertyShadow> prettyricky: I like http://www.gnome-look.org/ when it comes to customization.
[04:22] <prettyricky> cool thanks!
[04:22] <kumarphilly> interesting
[04:22] <prettyricky> is it pretty easy to install>??
[04:22] <m1r> broam , it asks me again the same to replace , but /etc/sysctl.conf
[04:22] <Broam> individual_eleve: it's also going to be a little slow most likely. if you put it on the same cable as your 80GB drive, it can slow down the transfers of that drive
[04:22] <Broam> m1r: did you modify that file?
[04:22] <Spagbol> ARRGH
[04:22] <individual_eleve> thanks..guess il just get myself an newer one

[04:24] <Broam> tsukasa: something bad ostensibly. I haven't compiled a kernel.
[04:24] <Broam> tsukasa: you might want to make sure your source files are corrrect (get them again etc.)

[04:28] <Broam> thanks tritium
[04:28] <tritium> Broam: no problem, buddy
[04:28] <Conexio1> Is it possible to expand your Ubuntu partition if you have the space available?
[04:29] <Broam> dabbill: Yes, "check the cable" also sort of leads people to do that ;)
[04:29] <belkinhelp2> im looking for a way to get 5.1 surround sound from my sound card
[04:29] <Broam> belkinhelp2: what kind of card?

[04:29] <Jordan_U> Conexio1, Yes, with a liveCD and Gparted ( which comes on most LiveCD's including the Ubuntu install CD )
[04:29] <belkinhelp2> hmm
[04:29] <MUS4SHIII> Anyone know of a good Evolution calendar and tasks widget that will put them on the desktop. I just left MCE2k5 and loved the program "Outlook on the Desktop". Hoping to find a good alternative
[04:29] <Menfest> Broam i want to prevent spam from coming to an alias so if I restrict to to mail from our domain I would think it would cut a lot of spam.
[04:29] <belkinhelp2> cmi....something
[04:29] <ythe1300> not helping
[04:29] <RedHeron> Broam, I'm still not able to see how to sign it... where do I send it after I sign it?
[04:29] <Broam> Menfest: I'd look up "greymilter" and see if there's a version for sendmail
[04:29] <dabbill> Broam, well i did "check" the cable and it works fine =p i just didnt make sure it was pluged in the right drive haha
[04:29] <ythe1300> get the model please :)

[04:30] <sigra_> >MUSA4SHIII did you check out gnome theme.org?
[04:30] <MUS4SHIII> nope, i will now though
[04:30] <Broam> RedHeron: I believe there are instructions on the wiki. It's been a long time...you have to register the key on launchpad, and then they send you a request that's encrypted (decrypt with your private key) that has the instructions
[04:30] <prettyricky> LibertyShadow---------> how do you install the new Themes?
[04:30] <RedHeron> Broam:  I'm regged on launchpad already.
[04:30] <sigra_> >MUSA4SHIII yes,  They have some great widgets there:)
[04:30] <Broam> RedHeron: lemme look brb
[04:31] <RedHeron> Broam: Thanks. :-)
[04:31] <MUS4SHIII> what is the address?

[04:32] <shawn__> i just learned :)
[04:32] <Broam> sigra_: I've looked at it once and I was confused. I have a blog that *might* help...lemme see if I can find it
[04:33] <kindofabuzz> anyone know anything about the cpio command? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60125/
[04:33] <LibertyShadow> prettyricky, Download the .tar.gz for the login theme you want to your home folder.
[04:33] <belkinhelp2> Audio  	- Chip AC97 CODEC
[04:33] <belkinhelp2> - Channel 2 CH Audio
[04:33] <tritium> shawn__: why do you have all those modelines in there?
[04:33] <belkinhelp2> onboard audio
[04:33] <Broam> sigra_: http://openoffice.blogs.com/
[04:33] <shawn__> i dunno
[04:33] <sigra_> >Broam Thank you.  I built a database for first time...but its stuck in read only and all google sites tell you to use edit file to take it out of this mode.  But the Edit file is greyed out..I googled for hours before coming here lol
[04:33] <belkinhelp2> here is the mobo
[04:33] <belkinhelp2> http://www.asrock.com/mb/overview.asp?Model=K7VT2
[04:33] <shawn__> tritium should i remove them all
[04:33] <belkinhelp2> does that help
[04:33] <jtl> What is the best procedure from upgrading from 5.10 to 6.0.6.1 LTS? Are there any important considerations in doing an upgrade install?
[04:34] <LibertyShadow> prettyricky, Then in the "Local" tab of System>Administration>Login Window click "Add" and select the .tar.gz you downloaded.  That should do the trick.
[04:34] <Broam> sigra_: If you can't find an answer there you could always email Solveig. She's been migrating people for yearrs
[04:34] <tritium> shawn__: well, I'm asking where they came from.  They're normally not needed.
 i guess i did xorg config a bunch
[04:34] <jtl> Even a good link would be helpful
[04:34] <sigra_> >Broam Thanks I will,  I spent alot hours making database.  and I am stumped on this..sure its something simple.
[04:34] <prettyricky> I did that but the theme does not show up, looks as if the folder is empty when I go to install
[04:34] <Broam> jtl: I think there's a tool for it, that changes your sources and upgrades. I forget if it does breezy->dapper
[04:34] <Broam> sigra_: YW
[04:34] <belkinhelp2> can an onboard sound card be reconfigured?
 but i dunno what they are or where they came from
[04:35] <Broam> ncfi1013: any luck?
[04:35] <tritium> shawn__: okay, one moment please.
[04:35] <shawn__> ok
[04:35] <ncfi1013> Broam: the last line of most recent command you gave was: [21439.132000] sd 5:0:0:0: Attached scsigeneric sg4 type 0
[04:35] <Broam> belkinhelp2:  yes
[04:35] <Broam> ncfi1013: looks like it found your ipod
[04:35] <jtl> Broam: a tool - any idea on some keywords or how to find it?
[04:35] <prettyricky> I double click on the folder and I can see the files, but for some reason they dont show when I hit install on the login window
[04:35] <belkinhelp2> Broam....here is my mobo
[04:35] <Broam> jtl: search wiki
[04:35] <Broam> jtl: it's changed a few times
[04:35] <Broam> jtl: there's always editing /etc/apt/sources.list manually
[04:35] <belkinhelp2> doesnt tell me what kind of card it is
[04:36] <belkinhelp2> its integrated
[04:36] <Broam> jtl: but that's not for the faint of heart

[04:36] <jtl> Broam: Yes - I thought of that - I am concerned on getting the mirrors correct - are the mirrors listed at ubuntu.org going to work for that?

[04:41] <ythe1300> belkinhelp2: your onboard does not support it
[04:41] <belkinhelp2> ok
[04:42] <ythe1300> belkinhelp2: you could get an offboard one
[04:42] <belkinhelp2> so heres the next question
[04:42] <ythe1300> belkinhelp2: and try that out
[04:42] <belkinhelp2> i have a 5.1 PCI
[04:42] <ythe1300> belkinhelp2: k
[04:42] <belkinhelp2> but when i put it in
[04:42] <crazy6> minor problem, I was doing a chmod 777 -R , and I put in * instead of /opt/*  , now I am getting an error about /etc/sudoers ... should I just smash the computer with a hammer?
[04:42] <TrueNme> ncfil1013, are you looking through your files and folders for it ?
[04:42] <kindofabuzz> ncfi, do a whereis rhythmbox
[04:42] <belkinhelp2> the system freezes on boot
[04:42] <redpepper> anyone here using ATI mobility 9000?

[04:42] <ythe1300> :/
[04:42] <belkinhelp2> at the point where the logon plays that chime
[04:43] <ythe1300> belkinhelp2: does it play through the soundcard?
[04:43] <TrueNme> can i open .rar files on here with out software ?
[04:43] <ncfi1013> i have codeine helix kaffeine miro mplayer noatun smplayer and vlc
[04:43] <belkinhelp2> it doesnt play at all when i put the in the sound card...it doesnt boot...it freezes
[04:43] <infernal_jesus> TrueNme: you need winrar
[04:44] <LibertyShadow> prettyricky: If you can see it in nautilus, try right clicking on the file and hitting "Extract Here"
[04:44] <belkinhelp2> i have to remove the sound card to get ubuntu working again
[04:44] <ythe1300> when it's loading the OS right?
[04:44] <redpepper> i've tried searching but all the forum threads have half the people disagreeing etc, im trying to use radeon 9000 + compiz
[04:44] <TrueNme> infernal jesus, easy to install ?
[04:44] <DrIP> hi any wireless experts arround?
[04:44] <belkinhelp2> how do i uninstall/disable the onbaord card
[04:44] <ani1> crazy6: if you changed the owner and set everything to rwx your probably in a world of hurt i dont know how to restore the entire machines defualts but sudoers is supposed to be -r--r----- 1 root root
[04:44] <belkinhelp2> yes, as the OS loads
[04:44] <DrIP> amenado: you here?
[04:44] <ythe1300> belkinhelp2: in the Motherboard Bios
[04:44] <infernal_jesus> TrueNme: yeah :P
[04:44] <crazy6> ani1: yeah, is there any workaround to change that? seeing as I can't sudo to change it....
 anything yet?
[04:45] <crazy6> ani1: maybe boot in single user mode? a non-rebooting method would be good
[04:45] <prettyricky> ok thank you!
[04:45] <belkinhelp2> its been a while but i can almost be i tried that
[04:45] <tritium> shawn__: I'm back
[04:45] <crazy6> ani1: all these responses on the forum, people just reinstalled at the drop of a hat...
[04:45] <TrueNme> infernal jesus, its just i know some things on here are a bit more difficult then on windows
[04:45] <belkinhelp2> i can try it again just for fun
[04:45] <LibertyShadow> prettyricky, then right click on the folder it extracts and select "Create Archive"
 ok
[04:45] <TrueNme> atleast for me so far
[04:45] <belkinhelp2> but i vaguely remember thinking....
[04:45] <LibertyShadow> prettyricky, make it a .tar.gz file
[04:45] <prettyricky> ok
[04:45] <ani1> crazy6: lol i dont think so..right thats always been the suggestion i have seen is reinstall but possibly you could restore everything from a live cd it would be alot of work though
[04:45] <prettyricky> ok
[04:45] <ythe1300> belkinhelp2: do you have a prebuilt system?
 do you know whats going on yet?
[04:45] <infernal_jesus> TrueNme: yehp, they're supposed to be :P
[04:45] <belkinhelp2> how can i get ubunut to stop using the wrong driver for my new sound card
[04:45] <SupaFly> ok, stuff this, how do i restart the alsa daemon?
[04:45] <prettyricky> great let me see if that works
[04:46] <ythe1300> belkinhelp2: HP/dell

[04:46] <ncfi1013> where do i do whereis rhythmbox
[04:46] <belkinhelp2> spare part system

 all i know is that my xserver crashes with everything i change
[04:46] <tritium> shawn__: at what point?
[04:46] <LibertyShadow> prettyricky I just tried it on Coming Storm, which was a .tar.bz2... seemed to work.
[04:46] <TrueNme> infernal jesus, slowly im getting use to it im trying my hardest to learn terminal and as many cmd's as i can but i cant seem to remember them
[04:46] <ythe1300> belkinhelp2: well I would look through the BIOS and see if I could not disable it there first.
[04:46] <crazy6> ani1: is there any other way to spawn a root console? (Ubuntu randomies the root password, right?)
 when i restart
[04:46] <DrIP> i need to fix a NAT problem and make my ubuntu computer a gateway from LAT to wireless amenado was helping me out in setting up a NAT, but it isn't working for me.
[04:46] <belkinhelp2> ok

[04:47] <tritium> shawn__: restart X, or restart the machine?
[04:47] <Johnny_5> ncfi1013: did u try sudo apt-cache search
 either
[04:47] <redpepper> she's a sexy little card, just needed some attention
[04:47] <tritium> Johnny_5: apt-cache search doesn't require sudo
 both
[04:47] <infernal_jesus> TrueNme: download peazip, it's good and it has a .deb package, so should be no problem to install
[04:47] <prettyricky> LibertyShadow-------------->yeah!!! thank you very much that was the problem! It finally works
[04:47] <Johnny_5> true
[04:47] <infernal_jesus> TrueNme: http://peazip.sourceforge.net/
[04:47] <TrueNme> infernal jesus, thats the problem i have beat the windows cmd's into my head  so now i cant forget them
[04:47] <Johnny_5> apt-get install would tho
[04:48] <tritium> shawn__: please pastebin your /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[04:48] <shawn__> ok
[04:48] <ani1> the bot just died
[04:49] <DrIP> any skilled wireless people?
[04:49] <ani1> crazy6: idk the only suggestion i can give is to check the forum or catch nickrud or soundray when their on
[04:49] <TrueNme> infernal jesus, rar fr linux is command line only ?
[04:49] <LibertyShadow> prettyricky: Excellent, make sure that the theme you want is selected.  When install the new theme, it won't change what you are currently using to the new one.
[04:49] <ncfi1013> johnny 5: it told me: E: You must give exactly one pattern
[04:49] <infernal_jesus> TrueNme: http://peazip.sourceforge.net/
[04:49] <infernal_jesus> TrueNme: that has a gui interface
[04:49] <infernal_jesus> and it's free
[04:49] <crazy6> is there any way to get a root console without using sudo? I seem to have messed up my /etc/sudoers file
[04:49] <infernal_jesus> DrIP: depends what you need...
[04:49] <TrueNme> infernal_jesus thank you
[04:49] <Starnestommy> crazy6: does recovery mode work?
[04:49] <DrIP> infernal_jesus: i need to fix a NAT from LAN to wireless
[04:50] <DrIP> on my ubuntu server
[04:50] <crazy6> Starnestommy: I'll go try that... I was hoping there'd be an easier way
 okay done
[04:50] <prettyricky> Thank you really appreciate it!@
[04:50] <infernal_jesus> DrIP: what do you mean? can you be more specific?
[04:50] <TrueNme> infernal_jesus which one do i download ?
[04:50] <LibertyShadow> prettyricky: Pay it forward.
[04:51] <DrIP> infernal_jesus: sure... holdon...
[04:51] <tritium> shawn__: yes, but where is the URL?
[04:51] <infernal_jesus> TrueNme: http://downloads.sourceforge.net/peazip/peazip_1.11.bin.LINUX.GTK2.i586-2.deb

[04:52] <DrIP> infernal_jesus: i need to get internet from my wireless to my LAN via my ubuntu server. my server can reach my clients on the network, but they can't reach my ubuntu server now.
 http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60127/
[04:52] <infernal_jesus> TrueNme: depends if you have gtk1 or gtk2, probably 2 :P
[04:52] <DrIP> infernal_jesus: amenado was helping mwe out before...
[04:52] <ncfi1013> would any of these media players that i mentioned earlier see the ipod
[04:52] <Polishpaul> stupid question time - how can i control my monitor brightness in Ubuntu? I hava laptop and using the brightness adjustment does not work (the screen does show me changing brightness). Normally its too bright, but now i can barely see
[04:53] <infernal_jesus> wait what is the setup? clients are connected to the server, and the server is connected to the modem?
[04:53] <TrueNme> infernal_jesus base install with gnome
[04:53] <Polishpaul> i'm adjusting using brightness using laptop keys that is...
[04:53] <infernal_jesus> TrueNme: what version of ubuntu?
 did you get it
[04:53] <TrueNme> infernal_jesus 7.10
[04:54] <infernal_jesus> TrueNme: so it's the latest, it should have gtk2
[04:54] <TrueNme> infernal_jesus, ok
[04:54] <ncfi1013> do any of my other media players have ipod 3rd gen support
[04:55] <DrIP> infernal_jesus: could you follow that?
[04:55] <DrIP> infernal_jesus: ahh
[04:55] <shawn__> hello?
[04:55] <DrIP> infernal_jesus: wireless has the internet. my ubuntu is connected to the AP that has the wireless. i need my LAN to get the internet from my wireless.
[04:56] <soldats> shawn__: be patient it takes a minute or so to view the X log
[04:56] <tritium> shawn__: reviewing it now
[04:56] <darkcrab> im at the firefox website, and almost all of the normal extensions say not available for linux now
[04:56] <shawn__> okay
[04:57] <darkcrab> now
[04:57] <darkcrab> not
[04:57] <darkcrab> i mean
[04:57] <tritium> thanks, soldats
[04:57] <DocMangler> hey Polishpaul, what desktop are you running?  I know where it is in KDE, but not gnome
[04:57] <infernal_jesus> DrIP: so basically you want the server to act as a gateway?
[04:57] <TrueNme> how do i burn .ccd , .img and .sub  files to a cd to make them bootable ?
[04:57] <DrIP> infernal_jesus: YES!
[04:58] <Azures> how do i install flash in ubuntu
[04:58] <infernal_jesus> DrIP: this might help http://newbiedoc.sourceforge.net/networking/homegateway.html
[04:58] <soldats> !flash | Azures
[04:58] <soldats> oh wait
[04:58] <Karsyth> how can i search for a file / folder when i have no idea where it is?
[04:59] <DrIP> infernal_jesus: ok, thanks!
[04:59] <Karsyth> i tried find and locate  but i didnt have the right command
[04:59] <LibertyShadow> soldats, I think something terrible happened to our bot friend.
[04:59] <soldats> Karsyth: find / name_of_file_or_folder
[04:59] <infernal_jesus> DrIP: no problem
[04:59] <Azures> 7.10 has no flash :(
[04:59] <Karsyth> soldats: ah i needed the / thank you
[04:59] <TrueNme> i thought this rar file had a iso in it but there is 3 files one .ccd one .img and one .sub  can i burn these in ubuntu?
[04:59] <Scunizi> Azures, try gnash
[04:59] <tritium> Azures: yes, it does.  I have it installed now.
[04:59] <soldats> Azures: use the adobe site and install the .tar.gz or install the flash-nonfree package
[05:00] <darkcrab> gnash was horrible for me
[05:00] <soldats> Karsyth: np bud
[05:00] <Azures> i hate tar
[05:00] <darkcrab> use the flash non-free
[05:00] <darkcrab> in the repository
[05:00] <Positronic> AWN is not very stable, is it :(
[05:00] <soldats> flashplayer-nonfree
[05:00] <soldats> i think
[05:00] <tritium> shawn__: lots of questions: I'm going to /query you.  Is your nick registered?
[05:00] <Azures> its nonfree ?
[05:00] <Scunizi> Positronic, I havent seen any issues
[05:00] <DocMangler> ok quick question, i replaced my ftpd with ftpd-ssl but.. for the life of me i can't find the command to start it
[05:01] <shawn__> no
[05:01] <Positronic> I find that the themes don't apply very well
[05:01] <shawn__> i dunno
[05:01] <soldats> Positronic: from others' experience not so much but it depends
[05:01] <infernal_jesus> DocMangler: /sbin ?
[05:01] <Karsyth> soldats: i ran that and it found a TON of files i wasnt looking for, none of them had the name i specified. do i need to add - then something to narrow the search?
[05:01] <Positronic> I am using svn version so I can't really complain, though
[05:01] <DocMangler> thanks ill check there
 probubly not
[05:01] <soldats> Karsyth: what are you searching for
[05:01] <MUS4SHIII> anyone know about mythtvfs?
[05:02] <Karsyth> soldats: i compiled this program and i dont know where it installed. the folder should be called something with "Stepmania" in it
[05:02] <Krozy> I've been trying to use TvTime but it seems like there is alot of noise compared to viewing channels on my standard television.
[05:02] <theseus_> anyone know how i can check to see if apache is running -- ps -a doesn't show it
[05:02] <shawn__> do you need me to pastbin something to get me quered
[05:02] <shawn__> then you can tell me after you got it
[05:02] <shawn__> so i can chgane it
[05:02] <soldats> Karsyth: try "which appname" or whereis appname or find / appname
[05:02] <tritium> shawn__: no, it's not that easy.
[05:02] <theseus_> also -- how can i see which network services are running and which ports they have open?
[05:02] <shawn__> oh
[05:03] <tritium> !register | shawn__
 okay what should i do
[05:03] <soldats> theseus_: nmap can view the ports open
[05:03] <shawn__> where do i regester?
[05:03] <tritium> shawn__: one minute, I guess ubotu is down
[05:03] <shawn__> ok
[05:03] <buddha> hey all
[05:03] <theseus_> soldats: any thought about how i can see if apache is running?
[05:03] <soldats> shawn__: /msg nickserv register <password<
[05:03] <Karsyth> soldats: the first two didnt find anything, and the last one again found every file on my system
[05:04] <shawn__> okay
[05:04] <soldats> theseus_: if you run "top" does it show up
[05:04] <ere4si> Karsyth: sudo updatedb && locate stepmania
[05:04] <buddha> need a lil help with installing my wireless card... downloaded and installed madwifi drivers for my toshiba laptop
[05:04] <shawn__> ok?
[05:04] <tritium> shawn__: By default, only registered users can send private messages - Information about registering your nickname: http://freenode.net/…gistration - Type « /nick <nickname> » to select your nickname.
[05:04] <MUS4SHIII> anyone know any good Evolution Mail desklets?
[05:05] <tritium> shawn__: that URL should be http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#userregistration
[05:05] <buddha> cant see the network manager with an option like configure wireless network
[05:05] <buddha> I tried iwconfig
[05:05] <shawn__> okay
[05:05] <Karsyth> ere4si: it found nothing
[05:05] <shawn__> let me regester
[05:05] <theseus_> soldats: yeah -- but then disappears -- looks like it is truncating stuff
[05:05] <Karsyth> ere4si: which is incorrect because i have a file with stepmania on my desktop and its not finding that either
[05:06] <ogre> !fonts
[05:06] <DocMangler> notta on that, i recognize most things there, nothing that looks like ftp, sftp sftpd etc... in /sbin
[05:06] <soldats> Karsyth: find -name stepmania      ??
[05:06] <buddha> anyone out there who can help with the madwifi installation
[05:06] <Scunizi> Karsyth, have you "sudo updatedb" yet?
[05:06] <shawn__> i dunno
[05:06] <shawn__> whats going on
[05:06] <DocMangler> found the directory with the readme, but no hint on it's name  :P
[05:06] <Karsyth> Scunizi: yes 3 times
[05:06] <Scunizi> Karsyth, have you tried "locate"?
[05:06] <DocMangler> only other thing i found was ftpd-ssl.pam
[05:06] <ere4si> Karsyth: updatedb will update the database so new files wiil be located - there must be an issue with something -spelling?
[05:06] <Polishpaul> Solution to monitor brightness: change under power management, restart computer (not x)
[05:07] <Karsyth> Scunizi: yeah, what ere4si said worked
[05:07] <Karsyth> ere4si: got it, the -name fixed it
[05:07] <shawn__>      /msg nickserv set hide email on
[05:07] <Karsyth> thanks to both of you :D
[05:07] <shawn__> am i doing this right?
[05:07] <shawn__> where do i type that
[05:07] <soldats> Karsyth: heh cool
[05:07] <ere4si> Karsyth: happy for you :)
[05:08] <buddha> I need help with madwifi... anybody who can help me?

[05:12] <DocMangler> command for ftpd-ssl = in.ftpd
[05:12] <soldats> theseus_: you might be able to restart apache like "sudo /etc/init.d/apache restart" but use the correct apache version also the app "nmap" can see open ports like "sudo nmap -sS localhost"
[05:12] <Polishpaul> shawn__: #register-with-nickserv is probably the appropriate chanel for you
[05:13]  * RedHeron is away: Busy for a bit... away!
[05:13] <tritium> shawn__: I'm going to need to get to bed.  Try to get your nick registration completed by tomorrow evening, and we'll try again.

[05:15] <Polishpaul> shawn__: are you having trouble registering your nickname?
[05:15] <ncfi1013> do any of my other media players have ipod 3rd gen support
[05:15] <tritium> Polishpaul: yes, he is.  I've given him the URL he needs, etc.
[05:15] <soldats> JohnRobert: im not an audio dude, id say leave it but use install alsa if it isnt and set everything up to use that instead
[05:15] <shawn__> yea

[05:22] <DocMangler> RLplot looks like charts only, there are however some computer algebra systems that will do it also
[05:22] <Polishpaul> m1r: i'm assuming that you were able to browse other sites? Drivers got installed OK? Did you need any restricted drivers?
[05:23] <DocMangler> there's also Grace and Grace6 for plotting xy
[05:23] <AlexHoover> Hm
[05:24] <m1r> Polishpaul: on 7.10 i had no problem, just plug usb in and run after regular install . i am browsing many other sites normaly, but on some it just disconects from wlan, then i have plug out, plug in and reconect procedure everytime
[05:26] <PiousMinio1> Does ubuntu have a player that can play MIDI files that isn't KDE/QT based?
[05:27] <Kyro> PiousMinio1, XMMS?
[05:27] <Kyro> can't it play midi?
[05:28] <Polishpaul> m1r: may i suggest looking up on forums/google? your first clues will be in the logs somewhere (usually messages is a good start). There may be some specific settings you may need to tweak with the wireless card? not sure...
[05:28] <PiousMinio1> That is one I have not tried.
[05:28] <Kyro> sudo apt-get install xmms
[05:28] <LunarOrca> hey

[05:33] <Marupa> Hi everyone, got a weird problem.  Whenever I try to hit backspace in my terminal when there's nothing left to backspace on the line it puts 'g'
[05:33] <m1r> Polishpaul: croatian
[05:33] <Marupa> Which is really annoying.  Any way to fix it?
[05:34] <DocMangler> Marupa lol not lol at you.. i had a similar problem which went away on it's own after relogging.. mine replace backspace with ~
[05:34] <Nicx> hey, if i installed linux on my xbox, how would i use it with no usb ports for mouse/deyboard?
[05:34] <Polishpaul> m1r: aha.. the few things i found on google was your chat transcripts :) surprised how similar Croatian is to Polish :)
[05:35] <DocMangler> Marupa only way i could work around it for the time being, was to cursor over, and use the Del button
[05:35] <Krozy> Marupa: Is any of your keys "stuck", CTRL+G typically represents the backspace.
[05:35] <Kyro> PiousMinion, are you serious... thats weird
[05:35] <Marupa> Krozy, whenever I hit backspace when it's there's nothing left to backspace, it does the backspace thing...yes
[05:35] <knightonwhite> Hello, i need someone advise please (my sister have to answer to the next question in school class: , does it possible to recover files from Disk-On-Key ?

[05:37] <mariooliveira> how do i set password for admin on localhost?
[05:37] <PiousMinion> Kyro: Correction. It has a plugin installable by a seperate package, but the plugin doesn't work. lol

[05:40] <Kyro> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=122109
[05:41] <Kyro> there is a thread about it there
[05:41] <reza_20> mariooliveira
[05:41] <reza_20> ok
[05:41] <reza_20> ok
[05:41] <PiousMinion> Kyro: thanks, will look
[05:41] <Marupa> Any ideas on how to fix this?
[05:42] <DocMangler> it persists after you log out and back in?
[05:42] <m1r> mariooliveira: did u try write in your system login pass ?
[05:42] <Marupa> DocMangler, like, log out entirely, or just close the terminal?
[05:43] <IRC-deltager> i want to "uninstall" ubuntu by deleting its partitions and resize the windows partition to the drives full capacity, is this safe to do or do i risk losing data?
[05:43] <DocMangler> i had to log out entirely, but my problem wasn't the same key as yours
[05:43] <LetterRip_> is there a workaround for the 'flash freezes after 2 seconds' bug?
[05:43] <LetterRip_> or an update from somewhere?
[05:43] <DocMangler> but you can try that, it fixed mine
[05:43] <mariooliveira> mlr yes
[05:43] <Marupa> Back in a bit, so I can check.
[05:43] <LetterRip_> it seems to strike intermeitnently
[05:43] <DocMangler> also, try using a different
[05:43] <DocMangler> wait
[05:43] <DocMangler> before you do that
[05:43] <DocMangler> close terminal
[05:43] <reza_20> to kose maderet
[05:43] <DocMangler> i seem to recall mine was only in shell mode
[05:44] <DocMangler> i used regular linux console and it worked fine
[05:44] <LetterRip_> IRC-deltager, it probably depends on where the windows partition and ubuntu partitions are
[05:44] <DocMangler> but haven't had the problem again with shell either  ;)
[05:44] <mariooliveira> im trying to  add a new printer and it asks me  password for localhost
[05:44] <mariooliveira> im using admin group
[05:44] <LetterRip_> if the windows partition is before the ubuntu ones
[05:44] <DocMangler> Marupa what terminal are you using?
[05:44] <Marupa> Nada.  Same thing.
[05:44] <LetterRip_> then i think it will owrk ok
[05:44] <IRC-deltager> LetterRip_: windows is on the first partition, then ubuntu / and /swap
[05:44] <Marupa> bash.
[05:44] <DocMangler> hmm
[05:45] <DocMangler> but is it KDE?
[05:45] <Marupa> gnome
[05:45] <DocMangler> ok, I don't know how that one works
[05:45] <LetterRip_> IRC-deltager, then i *think* you can boot into windows and have it fix the partion table
[05:45] <DocMangler> try changing the schema
[05:45] <Marupa> I can try the kde terminal program.
[05:45] <DocMangler> yeah the kde one if you have it
[05:45] <LetterRip_> i did that a number of years ago with a redhat install
[05:45] <IRC-deltager> ok
[05:45] <LetterRip_> but i'd ask someone else for sure :)
[05:46] <DocMangler> after you open it, select session, and select new linux console
[05:46] <DocMangler> it'll open a new tab, try it in there and see if you still have that
[05:46] <Marupa> Ow...blind.  Konsole doesn't abide by my WM colors.
[05:46] <IRC-deltager> but i could just delete the linux partitons and then use disk manager in windows to make them ntfs, wouldn't that be safer?
[05:47] <Kyro> IRC-deltager, when you boot do you get the grub or lilo boot loader or the windows one
[05:47] <IRC-deltager> Kyro, grub
[05:47] <IRC-deltager> i know about fixmbr
[05:49] <Standardista> Hi folks, looking to install sendmail, what's the easiest way to do this?
[05:49] <Standardista> I'm guessing sudo aptitude sendmail?
[05:49] <Kyro> IRC-deltager, what you said should work, but it depends if windows recognizes the linux partitions
[05:49] <Kyro> which I dont think it does
[05:49] <Kyro> it may allow you to view them and it may name them but it probably wont let you delete/modify/view them
[05:49] <xoqa> i'm looking at menu.lst, and i see: root=UUID=<bunches of letters and numbers>.. what is that? shouldn't that be something like /dev/hda3?
[05:49] <RichW> Standardista: Not something can explain with one sentence for configuring, see guide to configure, synaptic to install.
[05:50] <IRC-deltager> ok
[05:50] <Standardista> Sure thing RichardL_.
[05:50] <DocMangler> that UUID is the unique id of each drive
[05:50] <Kyro> IRC-deltager, probably easier to use something lke parition magic in windows
[05:50] <Kyro> to fix it up
[05:50] <DocMangler> it changes after you change partitions etc....
[05:50] <yd> hello
[05:51] <DocMangler> but it stays the same otherwise, grub uses that to id your drive
[05:51] <goalieca> okay.. wtf is this bullcrap. "sudo: unable to resolve host 0pt1mu5"
[05:51] <goalieca> setting HOSTNAME doesn't change anything
[05:51] <xoqa> DocMangler: interesting.. i've never seen it before
[05:51] <DocMangler> there's a few great websites on configuring grub
[05:51] <DocMangler> are you trying to customize it??
[05:52] <DocMangler> it took me about an hour of reading to do it, but i got it displaying a nice pic now
[05:52] <xoqa> DocMangler: i just configured my kernel
[05:52] <yd> hello
[05:52] <DocMangler> ok, sec ill find a good site i used before
[05:52] <goalieca> heh gksudo works at least

[05:57] <DocMangler> get the .iso
[05:57] <DocMangler> and burn the image
[05:58] <DocMangler> if you have a prob, you can start any of your os's via the cd
[05:58] <xoqa> i could just boot into my a live cd :)
[05:58] <nickrud> if you delete it from the places sidebar, it only leaves the sidebar. It doesn't delete the folder
[05:58] <DocMangler> aye that works too
[05:58] <xoqa> -a
[05:58] <DocMangler> i actually tested all my grub reboots on a flash drive
[05:58] <xoqa> i've messed up my grub plenty of times, but i've never seen uuid
[05:58] <nickrud> soldats: no problem, I'm working from memory myself. I use the spacial nautilus myself
[05:58] <xoqa> in it*
[05:58] <DocMangler> hahaha
[05:59] <DocMangler> yeah, actually i think i didn't see it either the first few times
[05:59] <xoqa> that's a good idea
[05:59] <sjovan> nickrud: but the thing is, i can't just right-click and delete anything from the menu
[05:59] <soldats> nickrud: i use DWM now so my memory is fading :)
[05:59] <Kyro> hello yd
[05:59] <sjovan> if i right-click the only thing that happens is that my menu jumps up and away
[05:59] <DocMangler> it may have been added after, i think... it's optional
[05:59] <DocMangler> but i will NOT swear to that
[05:59] <nickrud> yd: #ubuntu-id is an indonesian channel
[05:59] <soldats> sjovan: there maybe be a .config folder somewhere with a places folder in it to edit it
[05:59] <nickrud> sjovan: again, you do it from the file manager.
[06:00] <sjovan> nickrud: and how should i do that? Is there a "places" folder with links in it or something?
[06:00] <prettyricky> where can I find the program screenlets?
[06:00] <DocMangler> did marupa make it back yet?
[06:01] <prettyricky> I wanted to install new screenlets
[06:01] <JbCrash> i need help with ubuntu installation
[06:01] <nickrud> sjovan: there's a panel on the left side of the file manager; just above it there's a bar you can choose any of places, tree, emblems, information, maybe more
[06:01] <sajid> does anyone know a way to download a file via http:// from bash?
[06:01] <xoqa> JbCrash: what's the problem?
[06:02] <DocMangler> i might be able to help some jb, im still a noob
[06:02] <DocMangler> but i did a bunch of installs in the last 2 weeks
[06:02] <IndyGunFreak> lol.
[06:02] <IndyGunFreak> DocMangler: that may mean you're the wrong person to help,. :) (just kidding..)
[06:02] <JbCrash> i using vista now..in C: and...i hv free partition in D and F...ok..now if i boot 5.04 cd..how ubuntu will detect my vista?
[06:02] <tacosalad> can someone tell me how to play divX files in gusty?
[06:02] <DocMangler> hey, i loved it so much
[06:02] <DocMangler> why not install it a dozen times???
[06:02] <JbCrash> i dowan lost any files in vista
[06:02] <sjovan> nickrud: a, thanx. Haven't seen that panel before. Now i know what you are talking about. Thanx a lot :)

[06:03] <DocMangler> hahah
[06:03] <skooj> startkeylogger
[06:03] <IndyGunFreak> DocMangler: gotcha..
[06:03] <sjovan>  tacosalad: VLC works nice
[06:03] <xoqa> JbCrash: ubuntu should detect your vista system
[06:03] <JbCrash> yes..ths a cd i hv now.. version 5.04 for AMD64/EM64T
[06:03] <tacosalad> sjovan: i've got VLC on here, but i get a green screen, just audio
[06:03] <LunarOrca> Does ubuntu detect OSX86?
[06:03] <LunarOrca> and add it to it's bootloader
[06:04] <JbCrash> xoqa its that any option to detect my free partition?
[06:04] <LunarOrca> or do I have to do it manually?
[06:04] <IndyGunFreak> JbCrash: the best way to insure you don't lose anythijng is to back everything up.. the chances of losing something is slim, but if you start getting wreckless, you'll have a problem
[06:04] <ForgottenSin> startkeylogger
[06:04] <xoqa> JbCrash: it should give you an option to make a separate partition
[06:04] <sjovan> tacosalad:wierd... what format is this file? I only ahve issues with realmedia files (had to download that player as well).
[06:04] <nickrud> ForgottenSin: ?
[06:04] <ForgottenSin> SHITS AND GIGGLES
[06:04] <IndyGunFreak> JbCrash: that version of ubuntu is extremely old, you're going to run into problems installing it... closed repositories, etc...
[06:04] <pierre_m47> quçt
[06:04] <JbCrash> IndyGunFreak yes..me doing backup now before insert ubuntu cd
[06:04] <pierre_m47> quit
[06:04] <tacosalad> its avi, but divX codec, plays fine on my vista, but only audio here..
[06:04] <sjovan> tacosalad: Are you shure it's nothing wrong with the file you try to run?
[06:04] <DocMangler> the 7.10 x86 is running great on my machine jb
[06:04] <JbCrash> IndyGunFreak any other way to install new version?
[06:05] <mactimes> Does anybody know the name of the packages I should install in order to control compiz-fusion desktop effects?
[06:05] <IndyGunFreak> JbCrash: well thast good... but i would not install 5.04
[06:05] <prettyricky> where can I find the program to install new screenlets?
[06:05] <DocMangler> very few problems, just nvidia
[06:05] <IndyGunFreak> JbCrash: download a current iso?
[06:05] <nickrud> mactimes: compizconfig-settings-manager
[06:05] <sjovan> tacosalad: hmmm... that's realy wierd man. Sorry, can't help you out
[06:05] <soldats> mactimes: compizconfig-setings-manager
[06:05] <mactimes> soldats: nickrud: Thank you!
[06:05] <tacosalad> sjovan thanks for trying
[06:05] <JbCrash> IndyGunFreak i confused in that iso matter..its i can use live cd..and install manually from net?
[06:05] <tacosalad> anyone know how to install divX on 7.10?
[06:06] <JbCrash> my laptop running AMD Turion64
[06:06] <DocMangler> JbCrash: download the new iso you want, then use burning software
[06:06] <DocMangler> be sure to select Burn Image
[06:06] <IndyGunFreak> JbCrash: yes.. if you download a regular ISO, the yes, it will run from the Live CD, and also allow you to install.
[06:06] <Black_Magic> Err how do i put /home on a diffrent Partion?
[06:06] <DocMangler> it will make the cd bootable
[06:06] <nickrud> tacosalad: have you vlc? It plays most everything. Also,  try installing ubuntu-restricted-extras
[06:06] <sjovan> tacosalad: I think you have to spesefy what mediaplayer you want to run that file with
[06:06] <IndyGunFreak> JbCrash: just a suggestion to, i would suggest sticking w/ i386 also.
[06:06] <LunarOrca> anyone know if ubuntu detects osx86?
[06:06] <JbCrash> ok guys..let me try install it
[06:06] <JbCrash> thanks guys
[06:06] <DocMangler> bah, the x86 has so few problems
[06:06] <DocMangler> and it's so fast
[06:06] <JbCrash> linux rocks
[06:06] <DocMangler> besides, if you want i386
[06:07] <DocMangler> you can do another install, like xubuntu
[06:07]  * IndyGunFreak predicts bad things for jbcrash
[06:07] <DocMangler> on another tiny partition
[06:07] <DocMangler> and have the best of both
[06:07] <tacosalad> i have VLC player, i've been trying that, I get audio with just green video
[06:07] <DocMangler> ;)
[06:07] <DocMangler> that was install #7
[06:07]  * nickrud thinks IndyGunFreak is pessimistic
[06:07]  * IndyGunFreak agrees with nickrud 
[06:07] <nickrud> tacosalad: is it a drm protected xvid?
[06:07] <guga> #recife
[06:07] <LunarOrca> does ubunt support OSX86?
[06:08] <sjovan> nickrud: what's drm?
[06:08] <tacosalad> no, just a downloaded divX movie
[06:08] <xoqa> lol DocMangler
[06:08] <DocMangler> well, you did tell him to back up his files
[06:08] <DocMangler> not your fault if his world collapses
[06:08] <DocMangler> ;)
[06:08] <nickrud> sjovan: digital rights management , a licensing/protections scheme
[06:08] <IndyGunFreak> DocMangler: true, but he's tryng to install 5.04  you know how many closed repos he's gonna run into?
[06:08] <sjovan> nickrud: k
[06:08] <DocMangler> i thought he was dl'ing a new one
[06:08] <DocMangler> :(
[06:08] <tacosalad> nickrud: just a downloaded divX movie, no DRM
[06:09] <IndyGunFreak> oh i didn't hear him say that, i thought he was trying to install 5.04 still.
[06:09] <DocMangler> lol i didn't hear him actually say he'd dl one either
[06:09] <DocMangler> :P
[06:09] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[06:09] <IndyGunFreak> hope for the best, assume the worst....
[06:09] <DocMangler> selling my copy of windows 3.1 with no software
[06:09] <DocMangler> only $19.99
[06:09] <nickrud> breezy was a beautiful release. Needed some setup, but was very stable
[06:10] <Y-Town> DocMangler: Thats a great deal for anyone...   :o)
[06:10] <DocMangler> haha sure
[06:10] <IndyGunFreak> is ubotu dead again?
[06:10] <DocMangler> excpet it comes on floppies
[06:10] <sjovan> yea, and who has a floppie laying around :)
[06:10] <DocMangler> exactly lol
[06:10] <ogre> !fonts
[06:10] <DocMangler> last one i had was dead with hairballs in it
[06:11] <IndyGunFreak> i shot my last floppy
[06:11] <sjovan> hehe
[06:11] <ncfi1013> i have codeine, helix, kaffeine, miro, mplayer, noatun, smplayer, and vlc. do any of these have ipod 3rd gen support like amarok does?
[06:11] <IndyGunFreak> i ran out of clay pigeons, so throwing floppies was the next best choice.
[06:11]  * sjovan don't know where his floppy whent :(
[06:11] <DocMangler> hahahah
[06:11] <JbCrash> i have 1 more question..the only important software i use in my vista is.. photoshop cs2..i really love linux..if i use ubuntu..its that i can use photoshop cs 2? i hv original copy cost rm3700.
[06:11] <JbCrash> i have to use wine?
[06:11] <DocMangler> there is a wine database
[06:11] <IndyGunFreak> JbCrash: check the wine database
[06:11] <dooley> I have a box of 5¼ 's
[06:11] <DocMangler> you can check to see what programs run with which version of wine
[06:12] <IndyGunFreak> JbCrash: i would be more concerned about using a current version of ubuntu
[06:12] <mr-rich> ok ... on a scale of 1 to 10 (1 being painful, 10 being easy), how hard would it be to "upgrade" from FC to Ubuntu?
[06:12] <DocMangler> if you haven't set it up before, and it's not listed gold or platinum... you'll have a rough go
[06:12] <IndyGunFreak> JbCrash: you're going to run into a shitload of problems
[06:12] <JbCrash> IndyGunFreak i will updates my ubuntu
[06:12] <DocMangler> yeah man, and really
[06:12] <DocMangler> backup your files
[06:12] <IndyGunFreak> mr-rich: well, you won't *upgrade* you'll do a clean install..
[06:12] <IndyGunFreak> JbCrash: i'm not talking about updating
[06:13] <IndyGunFreak> JbCrash: you need to download a current iso and reburn
[06:13] <JbCrash> ok
[06:13] <DocMangler> my first qparted run failed in mid go of a format
[06:13] <IndyGunFreak> JbCrash: you'll fail in the updating process,b ecause of closed repositories
[06:13] <JbCrash> i using 1kpbs broadband..how long its will take to download?
[06:13] <soldats> hhe can still do a networkless install
[06:13] <DocMangler> less than an hour
[06:13] <IndyGunFreak> JbCrash: 700mb i do believe, do the math
[06:13] <mr-rich> IndyGunFreak: so, 1 ... painful ... ?
[06:14] <sjovan> JbCrash: I think CrossOver suports PS realy good. Read on their homepage, and if it's suported download a torrent with the prog :)
[06:14] <DocMangler> also JbCrash
[06:14] <IndyGunFreak> mr-rich: no,.. back up and do a clean instlal of ubuntu.. Debian kills RPM..
[06:14] <DocMangler> if you aren't happy with the layouts it selects for you on guided
[06:14] <sjovan> download a torrent of that prog :)
[06:14] <sjovan> *
[06:14] <DocMangler> use the manual, you can go up until it applies changes to your partitions
[06:14] <DocMangler> if your not happy to that point you can still back out no problem
[06:14] <xoqa> brb
[06:15] <IndyGunFreak> mr-rich: i'd encourage anyone to switch from FC to Ubuntu, but you're not going to *upgrade* per se, you'll be doing a completely new install.
[06:15] <mr-rich> IndyGunFreak: can I save my /home partition?
[06:15] <IndyGunFreak> mr-rich: if its already on a separate partition, i don't see why not.. but i've never done that, but some here sing the praises of doing that.
[06:16] <sjovan> yea, a separate home is sweet :)
[06:16] <ncfi1013> if my system sees my ipod, why won't it mount and why won't the ipod icon show up on the desk top?
[06:16] <mr-rich> IndyGunFreak: Linux is all I use ... FC changes to fast to keep up with ... I need a distro with a longer EOL cycle ... Ubuntu?
[06:16] <noble-> Should there be a problem trying to copy a file from a 64bit ubuntu partition to a vista 32bit partition?
[06:17] <IndyGunFreak> mr-rich: ubuntu updates every 6mo..
[06:17] <noble-> nm
[06:17] <IndyGunFreak> mr-rich: you might like mepis a little better.
[06:18] <ncfi1013> should i be in the kubuntu irc to ask these questions?
[06:18] <DocMangler> i have kubuntu ncfi
[06:18] <mr-rich> IndyGunFreak: does ubuntu require a clean install with each new version like FC?
[06:19] <ncfi1013> should i be in the kubuntu irc to ask these questions?
[06:19] <IndyGunFreak> mr-rich: no you can upgrade
[06:19] <knightonwhite> does it possible to recover files from Disk-On-key ?
[06:20] <ncfi1013> to docmangler: i have kubuntu as well
[06:21] <DocMangler> what is your question ncfi?
[06:21] <IndyGunFreak> when i go to the bathroom after eating taco's, i take a KDE
[06:21] <IndyGunFreak> :)
[06:21] <DocMangler> hahaha
[06:21] <IndyGunFreak> i don't know how anyone uses it.
[06:21] <IndyGunFreak> thank goodness for choice.
[06:21] <DocMangler> my kde is so pretty though, i can't bear to go back to windows
[06:21] <Peddy> I agree
[06:21] <IndyGunFreak> i'd have to use WIndows if KDE is all there was.
[06:22] <DocMangler> and gnu screen looks so nice with my eyecandy frames
[06:22] <Peddy> IndyGunFreak:+1
[06:22] <hyw> Hi, I keep getting Grub Error 17 and I cant log into the LiveCD again
[06:22] <IndyGunFreak> Peddy: its all a matter of taste, i've tried KDE, and i use it for about 3min before my frustration boils over when Konq crashes for about 3-4th time.. and i go back to gnome
[06:22] <timgws> How can I encrypt a text file with gpg without importing the key of the person I am encrypting the text file for?
[06:23] <Pendeta> When I try to use sudo I get an error message saying that I'm not in the sudoer's file. But I am the only administrator, having just installed ubuntu server edition. Is there any way to fix this without reinstalling?
[06:23] <timgws> cat myEmail | gpg --encrypt -a -r "Joe Bloggs"
[06:23] <DocMangler> gah konq sux
[06:23] <timgws> It works, but then I need Joe's gpg key imported :)
[06:23] <timgws> Is there any way I can encrypt the file, without importing the public key for the person in question?
[06:23] <n2diy> timgws: use your key?

[06:23] <Lunks> How to change what closing lid does? I'm getting an error beep on lid closing/opening. I'd like to lock the screen, but 'blank screen' does this.
[06:24] <timgws> n2diy: well, this is for a site, I want to validate a users uploaded public key
[06:24] <timgws> n2diy: So I want to send the user an encrypted email with his public key
[06:24] <MrGray> Greetings, anyone who could help me with NFS problem, i'm trying to install and get it running, i could make it possible for osmeone with TightVNC to connect and look and see if they could help me out, it would be GREATLY appreciated, smiles
[06:24] <timgws> n2diy: with a validation link that will be able to state if the key is valid or not.
[06:25] <n2diy> timgws: Well, you have to trust him, otherwise....?
[06:26] <ncfi1013> to docmangler:my / is that i have codeine, helix, kaffeine, miro, mplayer, noatun, smplayer, and vlc. do any of these have ipod 3rd gen support like amarok does?
[06:26] <DocMangler> ahh i dont use ipod

[06:42] <Kennster> Does anyone have any experience installing Ubuntu on an Intel Bad Axe (D975XBX) motherboard?
[06:42] <souper> christ
[06:43] <Capsid> does anyone know how to automatically start applications such as AWN and FireStarter when Ubuntu is started
[06:43] <ani1> firestarter already starts do you mean put an icon in your sys tray?
[06:43] <Frijolie> anytime I get a flash video, somehow it's opening in a JW FLV Media Player and I would like to get rid of it. However there's no similar packages installed. Anyone know the package name?
[06:43] <ani1> Capsid:  sys prefs sessions add for awn
[06:43] <Capsid> Yeah, what about AWN then?
[06:43] <GregOrian> Capsid:  rc.local?
[06:44] <Capsid> awesome, thank you
[06:44] <Daisuke_Ido> problem, souper?
[06:44] <souper> no
[06:44] <ani1> Capsid: http://www.fs-security.com/docs/faq.php#trayicon
[06:44] <Daisuke_Ido> k, wasn't sure
 does anyone know how to automatically start applications such as AWN and FireStarter when Ubuntu is started
[06:44] <LiraNuna> firestarted is automatically lunched
[06:44] <LiraNuna> it just modifies iptables
[06:44] <Daisuke_Ido> that's usually either "no one can help figure this out" or "wow, that's a lot of people"
[06:45] <Capsid> cool, thanks for the help
[06:45] <souper> i just got my vista partition working again (had been putting it off because i expecting it to be much more of a hassle than it was worth, plus i didn't have a recovery disc) it was actually tons easier than i thought
[06:46] <souper> but mostly after my windows abstinence i was surprised at how much slower everything runs on vista than my ubuntu install
[06:46] <Frijolie> anyone know of this "JW FLV Media Player"? I've never heard of it
[06:46] <LiraNuna> did you search?
[06:47] <Frijolie> yeah..but it doesn't list the package name
[06:47] <LiraNuna> !g JW FLV Media Player ubuntu
[06:47] <ubotu> LiraNuna: Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :)
[06:47] <souper> plus all the eye candy with compiz-fuzion looks so much better than aero
[06:47] <LiraNuna> oh dear, this isn't #ubuntu/EFnet
[06:47] <ani1> Frijolie: what browser are you using?
[06:47] <LiraNuna> souper, vista is a joke :)
[06:47] <Frijolie> Firefox
[06:48] <ani1> theirs a manage button under prefs->content you can change the action of flv's
[06:48] <souper> i know and honestly the only program that i really need it for is microsoft one note
[06:48] <Frijolie> does it depend on the filetype? I want MPLayer to play all video
[06:48] <ani1> install the firefox plugin or use vlc or another program etc
[06:48] <ani1> yeah just change it to external program and choose mplayer
[06:48] <Javid> I'm trying to install vmware but dpkg keeps throwing me errors: http://pastebin.com/d770cd1a2 what can I do?
[06:48] <souper> although the other ms office 2007 apps are pretty nice
[06:49] <Frijolie> but in firefox there is nothing set to use "JW FLV Media Player"
[06:49] <Riomerc> Hello
[06:50] <GregOrian> im looking for an HTPC sw solution on linux/ubuntu like MS media center or XBMC.  anything worth investigating
[06:51] <souper> GregOrian mythtv
[06:51] <GregOrian> souper:  gotcha.  thanks
[06:51] <zool1> hi? all
[06:51] <Capsid> GregOrian >>> LinuxMCE too
[06:52] <souper> np
[06:52] <Riomerc> I'm a windows user thinking of switching to ubuntu, but I'm somewhat shying away because of a lack of .exe support, or well, at least, to my knowledge. Any good way to install windows-based programs (Not WINE, I've looked at it before on a friend's Ubuntu
[06:52] <Riomerc> )
[06:52] <ani1> uh thats pretty much your only choice
[06:52] <souper> there's an ubuntu derivative distribution called mythbuntu that might be worth checking out
[06:52] <Riomerc> Drat
[06:52] <GregOrian> will do
[06:53] <tonyyarusso> Riomerc: wine/cedega is the best way for that, although TBH I don't use either - I don't have any applications that I couldn't find native equivalents for.
[06:53] <tonyyarusso> Riomerc: any particular programs we can help you with?
[06:53] <elkbuntu> Riomerc, feel free to express your desire for a linux version of your applications to the people who make these said applications
[06:53] <Riomerc> Tonyyarusso: I'm mostly talking about things like steam and HL, from my quick browsing, everything else was covered
[06:53] <souper> unfortunately nothing compares with ms one note
[06:54] <ani1> Frijolie: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.…tedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.c…-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.…reeFormats
[06:54] <souper> cedega can run those Riomerc
[06:54] <tonyyarusso> Riomerc: ah, I don't have time for games ;)
[06:54] <ani1> grr didnt copy the links sec
[06:54] <Riomerc> heh
[06:54] <Riomerc> Cedega...
[06:54] <Riomerc> Isn't that commercial?
[06:54] <ani1> Frijolie: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats  http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[06:54] <souper> wine can run them on some system configurations
[06:54] <souper> well yea it is
[06:54] <Riomerc> D:
[06:54] <souper> it's like 5 bucks a month
[06:54] <Riomerc> hah
[06:54] <Kennster> Does anyone know why I might have the Ubuntu installer randomly hang right after the boot option screen?  I have a d975xbx motherboard and an nvidia 8800gt.  It just goes blank screen forever.  If I ctrl alt delete it, it runs through a big long shutdown sequence and ejects the disk.  Trying to abandon M$ here and having a hard time with it.
[06:55] <ceriesta> hy
[06:55] <souper> Kennster dell by any chance?
[06:55] <josh__> which i better, gdesktop or desklets?
[06:55] <Riomerc> There aren't any solutions aside from cegega and wine
[06:55] <Kennster> no, it's my own creation.  Would you like a hardware list?
[06:55] <Riomerc> ?
[06:56] <ani1> Kennster: can you switch to a diff screen and login? like the system has been installed it just never brings the logon screen or can you not make it that far?
[06:57] <Kennster> Doesn't even make it to the hard drive selection interface.  Almost like it dies right where a gui *should* pop up... But I'm scared of a text based install.
[06:57] <josh__> which is better, gdesktop or desklets????
[06:57] <Kennster> I'm trying to dual boot on separate hard drives and can't accomplish that with fedora
[06:57] <Thurin1> Kennster: Are you doing a dual boot or a full install?
[06:57] <Thurin1> ahh ok
[06:57] <Thurin1> That's why you want to stay away from teh text install...
[06:57] <souper> sounds like you might want to try the noacpi option
[06:57] <josh__> hmm
[06:57] <souper> but that's kinda a shot in the dark
[06:58] <amenado> Kennster-> you have fedora already installed?
[06:58] <Riomerc> Re-ask: Are there any other ways to run windows apps (Mainly games and the like) aside from Cedega/Wine, or should I give up?
[06:58] <Kennster> It does the same thing when I only have one hard drive installed as well.  They are SATA.  Does that have any bearing on this?
[06:58] <ani1> Riomerc: why do you not like wine is the game your trying to install not on their appdb?
[06:58] <Carenthalas> Riomerc: Try VirtualBox.
[06:59] <ani1> ^ you always could run a virtual machine
[06:59] <Amaranth> Carenthalas: that won't work for games
[06:59] <ani1> or vmware
[06:59] <Riomerc> Carenthalas: Emulator?
[06:59] <Carenthalas> yes
[06:59] <Riomerc> Emulator = Phailure for games
[06:59] <amenado> Kennster-> you have fedora already installed?
[06:59] <Amaranth> If you want to play Windows games and Cedega/WINE don't work for you the only option is to use Windows
[06:59] <Kennster> Fedora installed with just one disk installed, but when I put the other in I have to switch the disk boot order in the BIOS rather than through a bootloader
[06:59] <Riomerc> Heh.
[06:59] <Amaranth> Personally I dual boot
[07:00] <Amaranth> I find myself not playing games so much anymore, which is a good thing
[07:00] <Riomerc> Heh
[07:00] <ani1> !hi
[07:00] <ubotu> Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[07:00] <ani1> good the bots back
[07:00] <amenado> Kennster-> you have two os already  installed?
[07:00] <Riomerc> Oh well, I think I'll stick with windows as long as I'm sticking with PC games, thanks for the help guys!
[07:00] <Carenthalas> Stick with native windows if you want native PC games.
[07:00] <Kennster> If I attempt a repair of the fedora install it tries to initialize both drives in a single striping raid array.  Yes, I currently have 2 os's.  XP32 and fedora 64
[07:02] <Carenthalas> Kennster: I have XP on primary HDD, and Mandriva w/ GRUB of secondary HDD. No problem.
[07:02] <amenado> Kennster-> how much space do you have on that single disk with fedora?
[07:03] <Kennster> 320 advertised gigs.  So whatever that is minus the thrown away powers of 2
[07:03] <Javid> I'm trying to install vmware but dpkg keeps throwing me errors: http://pastebin.com/d770cd1a2 what can I do?
[07:03] <amenado> Kennster-> what I meant is are there free partitions you can use or you need to resize the existing fedora spaces?
[07:04] <Kennster> I want to nuke fedora.
[07:04] <amenado> !who | Kennster
[07:04] <ubotu> Kennster: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :)
[07:04] <Peddy> test
[07:05] <Peddy> can anyone read this?
[07:05] <ani1> no
[07:05] <suzanne_> no I can't read
[07:05] <Peddy> kthxbye
[07:05] <Peddy> -.-
[07:05] <Peddy> I knew someone was going to reply that way
[07:05] <Peddy> :)
[07:05] <suzanne_> why ask
[07:05] <ani1> ^
[07:05] <Frijolie> anil: thanks for those articles, but they were tutorials for how to get your flash video working...mine is working, i would just like to select a different player
[07:05] <Peddy> because I was/is trying to configure Pidgin with IRC
[07:05] <Kennster> amenado-> I want fedora deaddified.  Gone.  Destroyed.
[07:06] <Peddy> and it works now
[07:06] <Netham46> what's the current codename of Ubuntu?
[07:06] <souper> gutsy gibbon
[07:06] <souper> that's the current release
[07:06] <NeT_DeMoN_> i have some problems
[07:06] <NeT_DeMoN_> i have problems with ubuntu as usual, my wireless networking does not work nor my sound or graphics
[07:06] <Netham46> when'd it come out? I coulda sworn we were still on Feisty...
[07:07] <Kyro_> lol
[07:07] <souper> it came out in october
[07:07] <Netham46> oh
[07:07] <amenado> Kennster-> when you install ubuntu and get to the point of partitioning the hard disk, select same spaces occupied by fedora and reformat it, then set the mount points..minimum /  swap and /home
[07:07] <Peddy> it came out on the exact date of my birthday
[07:07] <Netham46> I havn't follwed it very closely, then, hehe.
[07:07] <souper> hardy heron get's release next month
[07:07] <Peddy> it was a nice birthday present
[07:07] <Netham46> ooh was it on Oct. 18th? That's my birthday, hehe.
[07:07] <Peddy> yep
[07:07] <Netham46> it was?
[07:08] <Netham46> hahahaha, that's awesome
[07:08] <Kennster> amenado->I don't get that far.  The installer goes blank screened right after I tell it to "install or run Ubuntu"
[07:08] <Peddy> I know
[07:08] <zezom> does any one know of any speach recognition software?
[07:08] <Peddy> I mean, I had about 15 bugs when I upgraded. But still.
[07:08] <ani1> Frijolie: do you have flashplugin-nonfree installed?
[07:08]  * jescis wishes ubuntu came out on his birthday -_-
[07:08] <amenado> Kennster-> liveCd or alternate cd?
[07:09] <Frijolie> anil: yes, it's weird...videos on YouTube play in the native Adobe Flash Player but on other sites, they open in JW FLV Media Player..this is what I want to prevent. Can I always have them open in the native Adobe Player?
[07:09]  * Peddy says that the statistical probability that a new Ubuntu release comes out on jescis' birthday is very high, assuming that he lives over 100
[07:09] <jescis> lol
[07:10] <Netham46> lol
[07:10] <Kennster> amenado->LiveCd
[07:10] <jescis> Peddy: My bday is 04/22/1977
[07:10] <jescis> err... was
[07:10] <Peddy> haha
[07:11] <Netham46> heh
[07:11] <amenado> Kennster-> maybe livecd is not working for you, you can try the alternate, but try this anyways... no apic acpi=off  as boot parameters
[07:11] <Peddy> well, if I am correct in my theory that the universe will reverse itself at the end of time, then maybe
[07:11] <Netham46> Peddy, like in kpax?
[07:11] <Kennster> amenado->I'm a bit leery of the alternate install cd because I am totally new to linux and want the security of the gui installer so I know I'm not killing my existing windows drive
[07:11] <Black_Magic> Peddy, Maybe what
[07:11] <Peddy> maybe there will be a release in 77
[07:11] <flying_caveman> alternate installer is just as easy
[07:12] <Kennster> amenado->just type "acpi=off" as the boot parameter?
[07:12] <flying_caveman> just you cant watch porn while it installes
[07:12] <amenado> Kennster-> your xp is on another drive..so what are you worrying about since it is not connected?
[07:12] <Peddy> flying_caveman: lmfao
[07:13] <amenado> Kennster noapic   acpi=off      when you get to the boot menu..press e
[07:13] <Kennster> They are identical model numbers and size.  It would suck to accidentally overwrite my xp
[07:13] <amenado> Kennster-> its should not, again you said your xp is on a different drive yes?
[07:14] <amenado> you can remove the hd hosting the xp
[07:14] <Kennster> amenado->Yes
[07:14] <Carenthalas> Kennster: check carefully the device name on control panel before you do any partitioning.
[07:14] <Kennster> amenado->but then my danged linux bootloader doesn't work and I have to choose hd's through the bios...  I'll just have to be careful.
[07:15] <amenado> Kennster-> i dont know how your setup is, and if you are too scared, then just stick with xp, no need to lose sleep
[07:15] <ochie_cheerS> #surabaya
[07:16] <Peddy> my wireless network connection, randomly but annoyingly, goes to 0% strength and fails to work. Anyone know whats going on?
[07:16] <amenado> Peddy-> there are no guarantees that wireless works 100% nor any radio out there
[07:17] <Peddy> amenado: what do you mean by radio? sorry :p
[07:17] <souper> Kennster if you're using the live cd, what's stopping you from viewing the contents of each drive before you partition?
[07:17] <Carenthalas> Kennster: Suggest you to clone the XP drive first.
[07:18] <Kennster> souper I don't get that far is what's stopping me.  The installer hangs right after the cd's boot menu
[07:18] <souper> oh yea
[07:18] <amenado> Peddy radios have tx and rx, just like your wifi nic card
[07:18] <souper> sorry i keep getting snippets of this discussion and i thought progress has been made where it hasn't
[07:18] <Peddy> amenado: but 0%?
[07:19] <Peddy> amenado: I'm approximately 15 metres away
[07:19] <amenado> Peddy why not?
[07:19] <Kennster> souper It's all good
[07:20] <Kennster> Has nobody had their Ubuntu LiveCD 7.10 hang right after the boot menu?
[07:20] <Peddy> amenado: I'm sorry I don't understand, are you implying that this is because of distance/strength?
[07:20] <xim> anyone know how to fix pidgin when it wont trasnfer images right?  it only receives images but even then they come out pixelized on the bottom half
[07:20] <amenado> Peddy receivers even get saturated and you may get just noise...radio is magic..nothing is guaranteed
[07:21] <Carenthalas> Kennster: I had experienced it became black screen however it is still running.
[07:21] <souper> yea i've heard of it and usually the solution was to add the noapic acpi=off boot parameters
[07:21] <amenado> Peddy-> could be anything,  strong signal from a neighbor, any interference that can cause it
[07:21] <Peddy> amenado: ok, thanks (I was just assuming this was some sort of problem within network-manager itself, but maybe not)
[07:22] <Kennster> noapic acpi=off                no typo there?  Seems odd, but I will certainly try it.
[07:23] <souper> nope, those are the parameters
[07:23] <jescis_> I have a friend who has his resolution and frequancy set to high. And I changed it but it didn't change. o.O what can I do to change it?
[07:24] <jescis_> too*
[07:25] <Kennster> souper- thanks.  I'm off to break my computer!  Thanks for the help, and God bless all!
[07:25] <icesword_> break
[07:26] <Nelu> hy men i'we got a question can i burn ubuntu on a dvd and then to install it????? PLS
[07:26] <evilbug> Nelu- you're an idiot!throw your computer out the window!!!
[07:27] <Nelu> IS IT STILL A LIVE CD?
[07:27] <cafuego> yes, you can
[07:27] <Nelu> 10X
[07:27] <evilbug> Nelu- JK
[07:27] <evilbug> Nelu- cafuego's right.
[07:27] <Nelu> BDW EVILBUG MAI SUGI PULA LA GANDACI?
[07:28] <cafuego> But there's really no need to spam the channel
[07:28] <Nelu> EVIL BUG AM O INTREBARE AI SUPT PULA LA GANDACI DE BUCATARIE VRE3ODATA?
[07:28] <cafuego> Nelu: Please stop.
[07:29] <evilbug> Nelu- when my dad let me
[07:29] <evilbug> see ya!
[07:29] <Nelu> K
[07:29] <Nelu> ZBAYE TO ALL
[07:30] <souper> hey, here's a question: is it possible to place a preorder to have hardy shipped as soon as they have the discs ready?
[07:30] <jescis_> I'm still here???
[07:30] <Peddy> souper: I want to do that too ^^
[07:30] <Peddy> idk, though
[07:31] <jescis_> darn >< a ghost -_-
[07:31] <souper> eh... it's not an option on the shipit page....
[07:32] <Peddy> I'm going to send the good folk there an email
[07:32] <xim> anyone know why gnome themes would screw up the way webpages are displayed in firefox?
[07:32] <jescis> any one know the answer to my question?
[07:33] <Peddy> souper: actually, I won't. Because I thought of it a while back, but now when I think of it, the CD won't arrive any faster, because it will take 4 weeks anyway.
[07:33] <Peddy> haha stupid me
[07:33] <Peddy> jescis can you post it again?
[07:33] <jescis>  Peddy I have a friend who has his resolution and frequancy set too high. And I changed it but it didn't change. o.O what can I do to change it?
[07:34] <bullgard4> Why is gconfd-2 a process? I. e. why is it not enough that Ubuntu only calls the GNOME configuration program when the user is going to change the configuration of GNOME?
[07:34] <Peddy> can you go into recover mode? and then run 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg'
[07:34] <Peddy> jescis*
[07:34] <jescis> Peddy: maybe tomarrow
[07:34] <Lunks> Should I keep APM enabled on Kernel Config?
[07:35] <Peddy> jescis: just hit escape or whatever at the Grub thing and choose recover (text only) mode, then do sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[07:35] <jescis> Peddy: the friend owns a vacuum shop(electrolux)
[07:35] <Peddy> jescis: the aforementioned command will allow you to set a new resolution
[07:35] <beltran> what channel is apropriate for general linux questions? sorry this is the only channel i know of right now im new
[07:35] <Peddy> beltran: ask away here :)
[07:36] <jescis> Peddy: ok will do.
[07:36] <noor420> ubuntu is great
[07:36] <jussi01> beltran: ask here, if its in appropriate we can direct you to the correct place
[07:36] <beltran> ok thanks, i want to install ubuntu 7.10 and the newest mint on the same comp, but do i need 2 swap partitions or will they both see the one
[07:37] <jussi01> beltran: 1 is fine
[07:37] <beltran> right on, thanks
[07:38] <souper> Peddy: I know it won't get here any faster, but I like to have the factory copies to archive or to give away friends or the like. I'll probably download it on release day but I'd still want the pressed copies.
[07:38] <jussi01> beltran: also, if you want to ask about mint, you would need to head on over to their channel :)
[07:38] <jussi01> !mint > beltran
[07:38] <Lunks> Should I keep APM enabled on Kernel Config?
[07:38] <Peddy> jescis: although, you may want to back up the xserver (resolution, etc.) settings first: with 'cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf'
[07:38] <beltran> right on, that was my only question, er, well shoot can i have one ubuntu but both kde and gnome?
[07:39] <souper> Kennster how'd that go?
[07:39] <Peddy> jescis: cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf Desktop/  ***
[07:39] <beltran> i know theres kubuntu
[07:39] <Kennster> souper->Didn't work.  made it to "Running local bootscripts"
[07:39] <souper> :/
[07:39] <jussi01> beltran: yes you can
[07:39] <beltran> thanks
[07:39] <jussi01> beltran: install the kubuntu-desktop package
[07:39] <beltran> ill just install the one then
[07:39] <jescis> Peddy: the settings give him lines on his monitor I mean 75Hz o.O
[07:39] <Peddy> souper: why not just request shipping on the day it comes out?
[07:39] <OneMike9886> does anyone here use Hamachi that can maybe gimmie a hand???
[07:40] <Black_Magic> Ubuntu doesnt have chkdsk from terminal?
[07:40] <souper> because i won't have to think about it then if i do it now
[07:40] <beltran> just not sure wich desktop is the better for a noob like me
[07:40] <Peddy> jescis: yeah, write down the commands I said before or something.
[07:40] <EXetoC> Hello. What do you guys think about Xfce? I haven't used Linux in a long time and i'm thinking of installing Xubuntu
[07:40] <jussi01> Black_Magic: yeah, man fsck IIRC
[07:40] <beltran> oo one last question then ill boogey on out if yall dont mind, why dosent linux need to be defraged, or does it?
[07:40] <jescis> Peddy: thanks I will
[07:41] <jussi01> beltran: correct, it doesnt, but its a good idea to run fsck from timeto time - its fdone automatically for you often
[07:41] <Daisuke_Ido> if someone tells you ext3 doesn't fragment, they're lying.  but it doesn't fragment even a fraction as much as fat or ntfs
[07:41] <Black_Magic> jussi01: I mean to list disks and partions and such..
[07:41] <Daisuke_Ido> as jussi said :)
[07:42] <Peddy> jescis: check your PM
[07:42] <ani1> !defrag | beltran
[07:42] <ubotu> beltran: The default Ubuntu filesystem (ext3) is engineered to avoid fragmentation issues in most cases, see http://linkpot.net/behead/ for a simple example on how it achieves this. A package "defrag" is available in !Universe, however its use is not safe, and is generally not needed.
[07:42] <Daisuke_Ido> way to overkill...
[07:43] <Kennster> anyone know much about the Ubuntu LiveCd installer hanging with a final message of "Running local boot scripts"?
[07:43] <belkinhelp2> ok...im back...that took longer than I thought
[07:43] <belkinhelp2> anyone still here that remembers my sound problem?
[07:44] <belkinhelp2> fiest fawn trying to configure my 5.1 surround sound card
[07:44] <belkinhelp2> i installed the pci card and I have sound
[07:44] <belkinhelp2> now I just need to configure the card for 5.1
[07:44] <belkinhelp2> any suggestions?
[07:45] <Peddy> jescis can I give you my email address if you need further help?
[07:45] <belkinhelp2> oh yeah, the card is an MS-Tech CMI 8738
[07:45] <belkinhelp2> PCI 6ch HSP56
[07:45] <bullgard4> English help wanted. What does it mean 'to leapfrog' in the sentence: "GConf attempts to leapfrog the registry concept."
[07:46] <Daisuke_Ido> jump past it
[07:46] <belkinhelp2> leapfrog means to jump
[07:46] <belkinhelp2> over
[07:46] <belkinhelp2> sound card help anyone?
[07:46] <jnkq> ^^
[07:46] <jescis> Peddy: sure

[07:52] <Peddy> Soms: out of curiosity, what happens now?
[07:52] <Daisuke_Ido> why in god's name would a complete newbie need to start making changes to .bashrc?
[07:52] <Soms> Never mind now, the user I was assisting has logged off.
[07:52] <belkinhelp2> lol
[07:53] <Daisuke_Ido> !dash | walkeraj, this is probably why
[07:53] <ubotu> walkeraj, this is probably why: /bin/sh links to the DASH shell in all releases since Ubuntu Edgy (6.10). Since DASH is not 100% compatible with the BASH shell, some scripts might break. You can make scripts execute using BASH by changing the first line of the script to « #! /bin/bash
[07:53] <belkinhelp2> well im a newbie too

[07:57] <chris062689> Sorry but.. whats that one command to reconfigure the package manager?

[08:11] <AndorinKato> Very awesome. So is this a support channel at all?
[08:11] <jussi01> AndorinKato: absolutely
[08:11] <bo-dick> does the app "NVidia X Server Settings" reads it's resolutions from xorg.conf?
[08:12] <bharath> hai
[08:12] <AndorinKato> Sweet. I have a question that's, well, mostly related to Linux.
[08:12] <jescis> jussi01: I'm using irssi and I still don't have a new "window"
[08:12] <jussi01> jescis: yeah there seems to be an issue with the bot

[08:13] <AndorinKato> I have a laptop with a partitioned hard drive. It originally came with Vista, but at my friend's urging I split the drive and installed Ubuntu on it. Vista has been acting up and I want to scrap it completely and just run Linux.
[08:14] <AndorinKato> What I'm wondering is, would deleting Vista affect the performance of Ubuntu at all?
[08:14] <jussi01> AndorinKato: IMHO, it shouldnt
[08:14] <AndorinKato> Does it make a difference that I can access my Vista drive and its files while running Ubuntu?>
[08:15] <AndorinKato> That tells me that it might be using something from that drive to run the computer, and if so I don't want to delete that something and accidentally screw everything up.
[08:15] <jussi01> AndorinKato: no, just think of it as an extra partion. linux can access windows files no problems
[08:15] <jescis> jussi01: But we're not children. so what's wrong with a little bit of profanity?
[08:15] <AndorinKato> Hm, I see.
[08:16] <jussi01> jescis: Id suggest that this isnt really the place to discus this, best to chat about that stuff in #ubuntu-ops :)
[08:16] <lancerocke> Hi all. I'm trying to use "Sonato" player and I configured the options to tell it where my music is and click Update Library, but for some reason nothing is happening. Anyone have any experience with Sonata?
[08:16] <jescis> jussi01: ok
[08:17] <worldnbottle> hello all, do i need antivirus on ubuntu in your opinion?
[08:17] <Daisuke_Ido> no
[08:17] <Soms> Yes.
[08:17] <jussi01> !virus | worldnbottle
[08:17] <icesword> hmm.basically no
[08:17] <ubotu> worldnbottle: A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21
[08:17] <Soms> If you have to ask the question, yes.
[08:17] <worldnbottle> i read about avg
[08:17] <Daisuke_Ido> Soms, what's your rationale for that?
[08:17] <AndorinKato> jussi01: Okay, I have another question. MSN Messenger has a feature that lets me send text messages to my friends' mobile devices. Is there an Ubuntu-compatible IM program that lets me do the same, or a web-browser-based IM service that will let me do that?
[08:18] <sauvin> jescis, I'm having a disagreement with another linux channel on a very similar issue. Part of the problem is the inch/mile thing: if they rules relax by an inch, visitors will insist on taking a mile.
[08:18] <Soms> I just rationalized it.
[08:18] <Daisuke_Ido> his asking the question doesn't make the OS inherently less secure, poor rationalization
[08:18] <Daisuke_Ido> thanks for playing though
[08:18] <thesurvivorman> You can txt2day.com
[08:19] <Daisuke_Ido> sorry, a tad grumpy tonight
[08:19]  * AndorinKato checks the site
[08:19] <worldnbottle> in fact i have just moved from xp to ubuntu
[08:20] <zcat[1]> rofl.. just logged a 190-line duscussion in ##windows, how to fix up file associations in Vista.. this would have been a 3-second job in just about any other OS.. Holy crap, Vista is messed up!
[08:20] <Soms> Daisuke_Ido: Nothing makes the OS less secure, if more virii was out there for Linux it might be more of an issue. However even with the limited virii exsisting, a user who is not quite savvy enough to realise what is and is not malicious needs to run an AV no matter the OS.
[08:20] <AndorinKato> Probably a dumb question, but this program is Ubuntu-compatible, right?
[08:21] <riskbreaker> hey guys. i'm having some weird wireless troubles using the b43-fwcutter driver. i'm running an amd64 build of ubuntu. anyone familiar with this stuff?
[08:21] <lancerocke> Hi all. I'm trying to use "Sonato" player and I configured the options to tell it where my music is and click Update Library, but for some reason nothing is happening. Anyone have any experience with Sonata?
[08:21] <magnetron> AndorinKato: which program?
[08:22] <beltran> just thought id stop back in and say my install went smoothly and i think it even recognised my atheros card, or the netgear card, anyhow thanks a bunch
[08:22] <AndorinKato> The one I download from txt2day.com
[08:22] <thesurvivorman> I'm not sure, I just use it via the site.
[08:22] <Soms> Enough rationale there Daisuke_Ido?
[08:22] <flowOver> im familiar with the amd64 build being very difficult to find drivers for.  this is why i run the 32bit build
[08:22] <Daisuke_Ido> 1) plural of "virus" isn't "virii", this isn't ancient Rome, but that aside...  2) there's still no reason for an antivirus.
[08:22] <beltran> and i rember earlier someone said "and if your feeling adventurouse, try enlightenment" i take it that it isnt as simple as downloading the package?
[08:23] <zcat[1]> riskbreaker: my advice is to get a better supporte wireless card. broadcoms are frequently a royal pain to get working. (having said that, I got mine working and it's been going great ever since..!)
[08:23] <Daisuke_Ido> nothing's going to be getting through anyway
[08:23] <flowOver> i dont top out 2gb ram often so i dont think i really need the 4+gb access
[08:23] <bo-dick> what command displays the current screen resolution, refreshrate and colordepth?
[08:23] <riskbreaker> for example i can type "iwlist wlan0 scan" and it'll give me a list of the local networks, and then i'll type it again 5 seconds later and it'll say no results available
[08:23] <riskbreaker> when i do manage to connect to a network, such as right now, i'm capped at like 10kb/sec...
[08:24] <zcat[1]> riskbreaker: Oh.. so it's working then. Well done :)
[08:24] <riskbreaker> now i don't understand - it should either work, or it shouldn't work, but right now it's in a limbo-ish kinda-works state.
[08:24] <bo-dick> is there a command that displays the current screen resolution and refreshrate?
[08:25] <icesword> !rename
[08:25] <Ubot6> Factoid rename not found
[08:25] <bo-dick> anyone
[08:25] <riskbreaker> unfortunately this wireless card is onboard in my laptop so i can't really just get another
[08:25] <zcat[1]> riskbreaker: well, when I say mine's working, it comes up about one time in three.. I have to rmmod and modprobe the module to get it to load the firmware, and I often have to run dhcpclient manually after it's connected to get an address...
[08:25] <zcat[1]> ... so my original advice stands :)
[08:25] <riskbreaker> well that's quite a pain
[08:25] <Soms> Daisuke_Ido: Then replace virii with virus or malware; and stop being an ass. Second, things can always get through, it is just the fact that they are less prone to, due to the almost low amount of malware created for Linux.
[08:25] <bo-dick> :|
[08:26] <riskbreaker> should i just switch to a not-64bit build then
[08:26] <zcat[1]> The other card and the USB wireless I have I just plug in and start using the connection, no pain at all..
[08:26] <Soms> Daisuke_Ido: Question reversed, should a windows user who knows what he is doing be running an AV?
[08:26] <riskbreaker> is there even a significant advantage to running the 64-bit build?
[08:26] <flowOver> bulk malware.  there are still individual blackhats who know their business and stay 0 day
[08:27] <Daisuke_Ido> ...and the fact that users are running as limited by default...
[08:27] <Daisuke_Ido> Soms, i'm going to say no.
[08:27] <flowOver> it tightens up alot of holes yes.  but thatś what exploits are for
[08:27] <riskbreaker> flowOver.... that's what she said?
[08:27] <zcat[1]> riskbreaker: what I've heard is that cgg doesn't do a heck of a lot of optimization for it yet, so no huge advantage.. and it makes just about any nonfree stuff like drivers and codecs much harder a lot of the time..
[08:28] <bazhang> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=571188 riskbreaker you might want to look at this cli how to for wireless
[08:28] <flowOver> why does my keyboard use the śingle quote to markup letters with accents?  i selected us in install
[08:28] <Daisuke_Ido> but that's an entirely different question
[08:28] <flowOver> riskbreaker, HAH
[08:28] <Soms> Daisuke_Ido: Then why should an unexperienced user not use something like Clam on Ubuntu? or any distro for that matter?
[08:28] <zcat[1]> Ummmm.. the virus discussion is probably !ot guys..
[08:28] <riskbreaker> bazhang: appreciated, but i don't think the problem here is with networkmanager
[08:29] <bazhang> Soms: if you are using ubuntu as a mail server for windows boxes then go for it; otherwise not needed
[08:29] <Daisuke_Ido> it's "should a user with a below average knowledge use an AV on a secure os", not "should a user with above average knowledge use an AV on an insecure OS"
[08:29] <Daisuke_Ido> and the answer is no
[08:29] <riskbreaker> bazhang: sometimes an iwlist scan returns results, sometimes it does not. regardless of network manager
[08:29] <CVD-PR> sup
[08:29] <flowOver> i have usa international selected as a keyboard layout and the single quote key toggles accented chars
[08:29] <zcat[1]> But wince we're having it.. I wrote a nice little script that sits in the background after you run it and waits for you to sudo or gksudo, then runs itself using sudo ... just a trivial proof of concept..
[08:29] <zcat[1]> *since
[08:29] <SidStudios> Does anyone here use Ubuntu due to the lack of virii, spyware, etC?
[08:30] <bazhang> riskbreaker: the how to I linked you bypasses network manager; might be worth a look
[08:30] <Soms> zcat[1]: My point, exactly.
[08:30] <Soms> Everything is in-secure without a knowledgable user.
[08:30] <Daisuke_Ido> Soms, you never had a point.
[08:30] <Daisuke_Ido> but okay, i can see that as a reason
[08:30] <riskbreaker> one more question. to switch to 32-bit do i have to reinstall ubuntu?
[08:30] <SidStudios> I have a friend online MSN with the name Daisuke
[08:30] <bazhang> Soms: simply not true and treading into offtopic
[08:30] <SidStudios> Yeah, you can't downgrade from 64bit
[08:31] <SidStudios> 64bit is what I used 2 hours ago.
[08:31] <zcat[1]> Soms: The real reason for no spyware/viruses is that installing most programs is just add/remove programs and tick the box. As a rule we don't go downloading stuff from random websites or running anything sent in email.
[08:31] <bazhang> riskbreaker: aye
[08:31] <riskbreaker> noooooooooooooooo......
[08:31] <SidStudios> Now I use Vista
[08:31] <styrman> question; is there a ubuntu splash-switcher application in gutsy? i googled after it and found its obsolete
[08:31] <bazhang> !usplash
[08:31] <Ubot6> 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
[08:31] <zcat[1]> Viruses are just programs. Linux runs programs as well as anything else. It's not magically immune.
[08:32] <souper> how do i remove the splash completely?
[08:32] <styrman> thanks
[08:32] <Soms> zcat[1]: Right, but you and I; are not exactly everyone else.
[08:32] <flowOver> SidStudios, thats a hefty licence to swap into over 2 hours
[08:32] <riskbreaker> should i try ndiswrapper?

[08:33] <riskbreaker> i don't really understand what ndiswrapper is but a lot of people talk about it in wireless discussions, should i give it a shot before wiping my ubuntu installation?
[08:33] <Daisuke_Ido> riskbreaker, what's your wireless chipset?
[08:34] <Yuji1> I accidently used all my disk space up and now Ubuntu won't let me login.
[08:34] <Yuji1> What do I do?
[08:34] <riskbreaker>  Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM94311MCG wlan mini-PCI (rev 01)
[08:34] <SidStudios> Hibernate in Ubuntu never worked for me either, it was a pain rebuilding ALSA, using NDISWrapper, and finding the correct screen from that "screens and graphics" thing in Ubuntu
[08:34] <zcat[1]> riskbreaker: since you're using 64 bit, ndiswrapper will be one of those non-free driver things that becomes particularly difficult for you I think...
[08:34] <SidStudios> Riskbreaker
[08:34] <SidStudios> I have the correct option for you
[08:34] <SidStudios> Here is a website I used yesterday
[08:34] <zcat[1]> riskbreaker: you can give it a try though
[08:34] <SidStudios> AND I USE 64BIT
[08:34] <SidStudios> WAIT
[08:34] <Daisuke_Ido> riskbreaker, did you go through the restricted driver manager?
[08:34]  * Yuji1 is using Windows XP and mIRC to do this.
[08:34] <SidStudios> DONT JUST USE IT LIKE THAT
[08:34] <SidStudios> USE THIS LINK

[08:35] <tiax> Hi, I've tried setting up my MX700 Mouse according to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MX510Mouse, which worked, but when I unplug the mouse and plug it back in, it's device node in /dev has changed and doesn't match that one in xorg.conf any more. What could I do about that? Is using udev recommended?
[08:35] <riskbreaker> feisty, eh?
[08:35] <SidStudios> riskbreaker: It works in Gutsy, and I used 64bit and it worked..
[08:36]  * Yuji1 is using Gutsy./
[08:36] <SidStudios> riskbreaker: I have broadcom but rev02, yours is rev01 but same thing
[08:36] <riskbreaker> for what it's worth, i'm on the hardy alpha (it's surprisingly stable!) but i'll give it a shot
[08:36] <zcat[1]> Oh well, I'm gonna reboot soon and play with alpha6
[08:36] <riskbreaker> alpha6 is nice
[08:36] <zcat[1]> like.. after I copy it over and burn a cd
[08:37] <riskbreaker> this wireless thing is the only problem i've had with it
[08:37] <SidStudios> What's the dif between that and Gutsy?
[08:37] <SidStudios> Riskbreaker: Are you using a HP or Compaq laptop?
[08:37] <flowOver> i have studio alpha6
[08:37] <riskbreaker> Dell
[08:37] <zcat[1]> hardy is going to be so sweet, I think... alpha5 was pretty good.
[08:37] <flowOver> the kernal finally runs stable on my machine :D
[08:37] <SidStudios> I don't understand why people use Ubuntu over Windows..
[08:37] <flowOver> why not?
[08:37] <Yuji1> SidStudios: well depends.
[08:37] <Yuji1> One VISTA.
[08:38] <Yuji1> >.<;
[08:38] <SidStudios> I mean, if you do nothing but surf the internet and chat, I'd say ubuntu is good.
[08:38] <Yuji1> Two, AirCrack woot, jk >.> <.<
[08:38] <zcat[1]> Is wubi likely to be safe in Vista..I've only tested it on XP
[08:38] <SidStudios> Aircrack?
[08:38] <SidStudios> Is that like Wireshark?
[08:38] <Yuji1> ...Ah nothing. *hushes*
[08:38] <zcat[1]> Silly question... I guess it should be :)
[08:38] <Yuji1> Somewhat. Wait crap bad.
[08:38] <flowOver> vista exploded on my desktop.  started bluescreening after i updated.  MS is rushed product
[08:38] <SidStudios> ?
[08:38] <Yuji1> zcat[1] Try googling their software and see if there is a unique Vista supported version.
[08:39] <SidStudios> I've never had one bluescreen on Vista
[08:39] <zcat[1]> Aircrack? ITYML backtrack2 live CD
[08:39] <riskbreaker> an example of the kind of problems that occur in vista...
[08:39] <allam> after Installing LAMP On Ubuntu and when i go to edit php.ini and set ";extension=mysql.so" to be "extension=mysql.so" i did not found this value in the php.ini file what i can do now
[08:39] <riskbreaker> i just installed service pack 1 tonight
[08:39] <raidium> Sid: great for development and several games. i have 4 3d accelerated screens going. I can do graphic design, game and web develop all at the same time. if anything crashes it only takes down 1 screen. pretty sweet
[08:39] <riskbreaker> and it took like an hour, during which it forced me not to ues the computer
[08:39] <Yuji1> I've never had a blue on XP, but Vista I just think they removed it, ha!
[08:39] <perfector>  any idea how i could get rid of “getpeername failed. Error was Transport endpoint is not connected” messages in samba
[08:39] <SidStudios> raidium: nice, is that on Vista or ubuntu?
[08:39] <Chipsa964> what do you think :o
[08:39] <raidium> ubuntu hardy alpha
[08:40] <flowOver> Really getting OT but mine started happening on boot after patching
[08:40] <allam> please any one help me
[08:40] <SidStudios> Compiz is great, really, but after some time, your eyes start hurting
[08:40]  * Yuji1 fades.
[08:40] <flowOver> moving on, can anyone help me solve the keyboard issue i have?
[08:40] <allam> after Installing LAMP On Ubuntu and when i go to edit php.ini and set ";extension=mysql.so" to be "extension=mysql.so" i did not found this value in the php.ini file what i can do now
[08:40] <flowOver> i dont want the single quote to act as an accent toggle
[08:41] <zcat[1]> flowOver: I just spent half an hour in ##windows trying to find out how to fix .doc files so they open in OOo (which was working fine for the last three months and then broke for no reason) .. 150-line chat, not counting quites and joins to solve something that would have been 3 seconds in XP or Ubuntu
[08:41] <zcat[1]> Bloody madenning (I know.. !ot)
[08:41] <osfameron> hi
[08:41] <jetscreamer> why would you ask in there about that
[08:41] <osfameron> my manpages for rxvt are broken
[08:41] <bo-dick> is it possible to change display resolution from the command prompt?
[08:41] <osfameron> is that a problem with the packages?  or with my installation?
[08:41] <riskbreaker> Sid: someone on this wiki page mentions having success with my model laptop so i'll give this a shot
[08:42] <jetscreamer> man setterm
[08:42] <zcat[1]> jetscreamer: Sorry... to fix that in Vista
[08:42] <flowOver> aw man the single quote is one of my favourite keys!
[08:42] <flowOver> i need that key
[08:42] <Chipsa964> vista started giving me .dll errors on like the second boot
[08:43] <riskbreaker> am i still online
[08:43] <Chipsa964> and the toolbar disappeared, and so did my whole desktop
[08:43] <bullgard4> "GConf is a library which provides a simple configuration data storage interface to applications." What file does store this library?
[08:43] <bo-dick> flowOver: go to keyboard settings
[08:43] <belkinhelp2> anyone here familiar with alsa?
[08:43] <jetscreamer> no you're not, riskbreaker
[08:44] <osfameron> rarr, tis a bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/gutsy/+source/rxvt-unicode/+bug/144416
[08:44] <Ubot6> osfameron: Error: Could not parse data returned by Launchpad: not enough arguments for format string
[08:44] <flowOver> bo-dick, i been there.  ive changed it to both usa international and usa.  it acts as an accent toggle still
[08:45] <riskbreaker_> whoops had to wire in
[08:45] <flowOver> i can get it if i hit it twice ´ but thatś silly
[08:45] <flowOver> would this be a bug in alpha6 ?
[08:46] <zcat[1]> flowover: system > preferences > keyboard, set the language to US or something?
[08:46] <zcat[1]> or did I totally miss the point..?
[08:46] <flowOver> done.  usa internation and usa
[08:46] <lancerocke> Hi all. I'm trying to use "Sonato" player and I configured the options to tell it where my music is and click Update Library, but for some reason nothing is happening. Anyone have any experience with Sonata?
[08:46] <flowOver> thatś all there is in the list and it still behaves as such
[08:46] <flowOver> usa is default
[08:46] <allam> is there any one work with php
[08:46] <tanner> what is a good automated backup solution (preferably with a gui) to backup files to external drive?
[08:47] <zcat[1]> OK... no environment being set that would make the terminal think it's different?
[08:47] <allam> after Installing LAMP On Ubuntu and when i go to edit php.ini and set ";extension=mysql.so" to be "extension=mysql.so" i did not found this value in the php.ini file what i can do now
[08:49] <zcat[1]> allam: if you installed apache2 and php5, it should sort out the config so apache2 is php5-aware automatically
[08:49] <riskbreaker_> hey sidstudios
[08:49] <SidStudios> Hey
[08:49] <SidStudios> Yeah?
[08:49] <riskbreaker_> when you did it
[08:49] <riskbreaker_> did you get a message like " The update-modules command is deprecated and should not be used!"
[08:50] <SidStudios> No, I did it yesterday and never got that message

[08:50] <riskbreaker_> let's go through with it and see what happens
[08:50] <SidStudios> Try using 2a with your driver instead and see if it works
[08:50] <belkinhelp2> i wasnt flooding
[08:50] <belkinhelp2> that was the output
[08:50] <zcat[1]> belkinhelp2: anything more than a couple of lines you should use pastebin
[08:51] <zcat[1]> or a private channel
[08:51] <bo-dick> does anyone know about screen resolution stuff in ubuntu?
[08:51] <belkinhelp2> uh....pastebin?

[08:51] <belkinhelp2> ah
[08:51] <belkinhelp2> thank you
[08:51] <riskbreaker_> alright i'm going to reboot and give it a shot
[08:51] <riskbreaker_> wish me luck!
[08:51] <SidStudios> Goodluck :)
[08:52] <b0bzilla> i just reformated my computer, now ubuntu keeps freezing up when ever i try to do any kind of updates or install any packages
[08:52] <SidStudios> Then switch to windows, quit whining.
[08:52] <belkinhelp2> i suppose all the output wasnt necessary
[08:52] <belkinhelp2> here is the meat of it

[08:53] <damo22> belkinhelp: i had trouble with a CMedia device too, it was a usb audio device
[08:53] <belkinhelp2> so the device manager "sees" the card

[08:53] <LSD|Ninja> Grr... How do you add custome classes to the jdk on Ubuntu?
[08:53] <warnet03> goose
[08:53] <belkinhelp2> but if im right...the driver is not installed
[08:53] <donswa> hoi

[08:54] <damo22> belkinhelp2: try #alsa
[08:54] <belkinhelp2> thats not good
[08:54] <belkinhelp2> no one in alsa right now
[08:54] <zcat[1]> allam: try http://localhost/phpmyadmin/ -- it should be there but it's defined in the config, not a link in /var/www/
[08:54] <belkinhelp2> been trying for about an hour
[08:54] <riskbreaker_> hey uh i have a question.
[08:54] <riskbreaker_> if i type uname -r
[08:54] <belkinhelp2> let me do a bit more research on the alsa homepage
[08:54] <tanner> zcat[1]: ... right.. because thats exactly what i'm looking to do
[08:54] <riskbreaker_> and get the following... 2.6.24-12-generic
[08:54] <allam> zcat:Not Found
[08:54] <riskbreaker_> ....i'm not runnign amd64 am i.
[08:55] <SidStudios> Did it work?
[08:55] <jescis> jussi01: fyi I do try to help. I'm in no way working for anyone that can pay me for support. -_-
[08:55] <SidStudios> What?
[08:55] <riskbreaker_> SidStudios: step 2b did not
[08:55] <SidStudios> What makes you think you're not running AMD64?
[08:55] <zcat[1]> tanner: add/remove programs.. type 'backup' in the search box. I rsync stuff to my webserver when I remember (a non-shared directory.. although I put a lot of stuff on the web too)
[08:55] <riskbreaker_> "generic"
[08:55] <riskbreaker_> shouldn't it say amd64?
[08:55] <SidStudios> Try using uname -n
[08:55] <SidStudios> I don't think so
[08:56] <SidStudios> I had generic too
[08:56] <SidStudios> Or uname -l
[08:56] <SidStudios> One of them tells you if you run 64
[08:56] <Terrasque> Hello, this isn't a direct ubuntu question, but is there a good way to sanitize input from a BASH script?
[08:56] <damo22> uname -m
[08:56] <jescis> SidStudios: uname -a does too ;)
[08:56] <zcat[1]> allam: oh. Bugger.
[08:57] <allam> ????
[08:57] <SidStudios> jescis: Ah, thanks :)
[08:57] <SidStudios> jescis: I actually wouldn't know since I use vista now..
[08:57] <jescis> SidStudios: np
[08:57] <allam> zcat[1]what i can do now please
[08:57] <riskbreaker_> uname -a returns the following: Linux mbrainprime 2.6.24-12-generic #1 SMP Wed Mar 12 22:31:43 UTC 2008 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[08:58] <jescis> SidStudios: you poor guy. ;)
[08:58] <damo22> x86_64 there you go
[08:58] <riskbreaker_> okay
[08:58] <SidStudios> jescis: I didn't know poor people could afford vista ;)
[08:58] <zcat[1]> allam: you said not found. try making a test.php file in /var/www/ and put this in it.. : <?php phpinfo(); ?> then browse to http://localhost/test.php
[08:58] <riskbreaker_> i was just worried because it said generic... and i thought that was where the platform name went
[08:58] <riskbreaker_> SidStudios - i'ma try 2a
[08:59] <LSD|Ninja> Is there like a folder I can drop my custom classes into to have them added to the CLASSPATH somehow?
[08:59] <zcat[1]> SidStudios: people in general can't avoid Vista.. it's preinstalled on everything just about
[08:59] <CE_BASSIST> i
[08:59] <SidStudios> Riskbreaker: Ok, I think it should work better
[08:59] <allam> zcat[1]:the apche work well and i try testphp padge and it show me the php information successfully
[08:59] <bo-dick> does anyone know how to change screen resolution and refreshrate from command prompt?
[08:59] <tiax> bo-dick: xrandr does that
[08:59] <SidStudios> zcat[1]: Vista pretty much owns if you use Vlite with x64 Home Basic and remove all the assware that is there beforehand
[09:00] <SidStudios> And then do a fresh install
[09:00] <jescis> riskbreaker_: the part with generic is the kernel release
[09:00] <LSD|Ninja> Vista is probably easier to set the CLASSPATH on too...
[09:00] <zcat[1]> allam: ok... phpmyadmin will be domewhere /var/lib/phpmyadmin perhaps? find it, make a link to it from /var/www and it should all be good. I think.
[09:00] <bo-dick> tiax: does it allow me to use any res/refreshrate i want?
[09:00] <tiax> bo-dick: I guess it won't allow you to set impossible values, check the manpage for more details
[09:00] <bo-dick> tiax: ok, thanks
[09:01] <zcat[1]> SidStudios: I'm loving vista.. since it came out we have had so many people coming along to the LUG because they don't want to upgrade to Vista and they know Microsoft is going to stop supporting XP sometime.
[09:01] <kosnick> hi i need to register with some channel , how do i do that and later on how do i identify myself ? sorry to put this here
[09:01] <damo22> xrandr --screen 0 --size 1024x768
[09:01] <jescis> riskbreaker_: and uname -r gives that out as well as the -a/--all one does.
[09:01] <styrman> bazhang: my bootsplash theme, got a .config file what do i do with it? it isnt mentioned in that site

[09:02] <zcat[1]> I dunno.. they really want to push people onto Vista asap
[09:02] <SidStudios> zcat[1]: Actually, the average user would find it easier to use Vista than Ubuntu, because ubuntu needs a shit-load of time and is too distracting
[09:02] <zcat[1]> SidStudios: yeah, right.. have you used Vista lately?
[09:02]  * tiax got his laptop with gutsy pre-installed monday
[09:02] <souper> lol
[09:03] <SidStudios> I'm using it right now, with no desktop effects
[09:03] <fx|RabBi2> how do i find out the dependencies of a package?
[09:03] <flowOver> vista has been a cash cow since launch
[09:03] <LSD|Ninja> CLASSPATH anybody?
[09:03] <SidStudios> I got it with my laptop
[09:03] <jescis> SidStudios: Since you're on vista. you could crack open a book(or do a google search) ._>
[09:03] <SidStudios> And I got my laptop for free,
[09:03] <SidStudios> Everyone bitches about vista for no reason
[09:03] <flowOver> theyŕe getting as much out of the heap it became and moving onto new things asap
[09:03] <allam> zcat[1]: how i can uninstall all because i want to reinstall it again
[09:03] <zcat[1]> I just spend a good half hour finding out how to change a file association, after it broke for no reason at all. Vista is crap!
[09:03] <LSD|Ninja> SidStudios: people bitched about XP for no reason 6 years ago too. Plenty of people are forgetting that when they slag off at Vista ;)

[09:04] <SidStudios> Sorry for my downtime, I closed the Window
[09:05] <jescis> SidStudios: I don't like vista because you need the new 64-bit hardware to do anything useful, and it's a Mac OS X rip off.
[09:05] <souper> i've never used a new windows os untill it was forced upon me by a new oem system
[09:05] <SidStudios> jescis: I'm not using any 64-bit hardware besides my processor
[09:05] <jescis> SidStudios: imo

[09:08] <fx|RabBi2> ok guys this is a hlepchannel not a discussion channel hit #ubuntu-offtopic please
[09:08] <SidStudios> Good,
[09:09] <bullgard4> I am missing an 'About' page on the  http://www.getdeb.net/  website. I noticed the Canonical copyright. What is the purpose of the  http://www.getdeb.net/ website?
[09:09] <SidStudios> Mine can't. Wireless doesn't work out of the box. Proprietary drivers just to get graphics working? No thanks..
[09:09] <xoqa> fx|RabBi2: unfortunately, i don't have anymore blank disks :|
[09:09] <m1r> i have upgraded 7.04 to 7.10 from alternate cd , then i went online to DL 500mb upgrades , when it finished and started installing it gave me response: WARNING , Unknow Ubuntu Release 7.10 , can anyone explain me what hapened ?
[09:09] <souper> what was the last ubuntu release you've installed?
[09:10] <m1r> souper: 7.04
[09:10] <flowOver> SidStudios, youŕe not the only person in the world nor is your computer the only of itś own.  vista fails very well on alot of hardware.  many oem venders have this problem and forced them to keep selling xp
[09:10] <m1r> souper : then upgrade to 7.10 from alternate cd
[09:11] <EXetoC> bullgard4: various 32 bit gutsy software grouped into categories
[09:11] <fx|RabBi2> how do i find out the dependencies of a package?
[09:11] <EXetoC> kategorier = categories :-)
[09:11] <styrman> What do I do with bootsplash-1024x768.cfg when i'm looking to change bootsplash theme?
[09:11] <SidStudios> flowOver: And selling XP instead of Vista is a disadvantage_ because?
[09:12] <styrman> SidStudios go and soak yourself in gasoline instead :P
[09:12] <jussi01> SidStudios: Flowover, please take this discussion to #ubuntu-offftopic
[09:12] <SidStudios> K, sorry for the inconvenience
[09:12] <SidStudios> Too bad Linux isn't apologizing as well..
[09:13] <flowOver> ground control *ke*k* this is the point.  we have taken off and cleared the launch zone - over
[09:13] <fx|RabBi2> gosh someone kickhim please
[09:13] <SidStudios> Anyways, Compiz integration into Ubuntu is great
[09:13] <SidStudios> If I had to use Linux, I'd use Ubuntu because of the great package management system
[09:14] <cesar_b1> Hi, when I click the end session button on the top panel, I get a lag for 20 seconds after the dialog apears, I had 1.5 gb of Ram, Why this is happening?
[09:14] <bullgard4> EXetoC: Why doesn't System > Administration > Update_Manager provide the software offered by  http://www.getdeb.net/?
[09:14] <SidStudios> bullgard4: I think you need to add the sources
[09:14] <souper> In computer world: software doesn't apologize to you, you apologize to software
[09:14] <SidStudios> bullgard4: Software sources
[09:15] <SidStudios> cesar_b1: I have 4GB RAM, and it doesn't seem to be a problem
[09:15] <SidStudios> cesar_b1: I think Ubuntu needs at least 3GB of RAM to function correctly without fucking up
[09:15] <SidStudios> !language
[09:15] <ubotu> Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly.
[09:15] <styrman> kick him
[09:15] <m1r> SidStudios: o overhelimg, i run 256mb sdram with 500mhz with np
[09:15] <SidStudios> m1r: I was meant to type Vista, not ubuntu
[09:16] <flowOver> mlr - ive learned to not feed the trolls
[09:16] <flowOver> theyŕe small ugly and tend to smell
[09:16] <zcat[1]> wtf? I have 128 M in my lappy.. it's a bit slow but still useable.. as long as I don't open more than a couple of programs at a time
[09:16] <cesar_b1> SidStudios: ¬¬
[09:16] <SidStudios> flowOver: I think Vista trolls would generally be able to afford water and soap..
[09:16] <Smegzor> I have lost sound while viewing flash videos.  I have sound everywhere else.  How do I fix this without rebooting?
[09:16] <m1r> zcat[1]: yes i have one too , is bit laggy but works when it boots up after 10 min :D
[09:17] <SidStudios> flowOver: As well as buy their own ketchup instead of getting free packets from McDonalds'...
[09:17] <SidStudios> flowOver: Maybe, you just might be able to understand my rhetoric
[09:17] <flowOver> cesar_b1, goofs taken care of, cleanup takes time.  shutdown doesnt happen instantly.  describe this hang more.  is it simply the shutdown process or does it stop before that?
[09:17] <cesar_b1> The issue is the end session, gets LAG, all apps works fine, just the end session get's to much time
[09:17] <souper> now that's just a waste of money
[09:17] <zcat[1]> hehe.. two or three min, yeah. It's a bit slow to boot and stuff too.. I really need 512M and it would be sweet
[09:17] <SidStudios> flowOver: You can search up the word 'Rhetoric' in that nice little Dictionary deskbar applet that you Ubuntu users have :)
[09:18] <SidStudios> zcat[1]: Maybe you can increase your Swap size if it helps
[09:18] <dgjones> zcat[1], what desktop manager do you run on that, I've got an old laptop, sounds like a simlar spec to that, works great with xfce, gnome was a bit slow
[09:19] <souper> more and more i'm starting to recognize the ravings of a drunk person

[09:21] <souper> woo
[09:21] <flowOver> especially me?  for some reason.  moving on, i still need help figuring why ´ is behaving as an accent toggle instead of a single quote
[09:21] <Smegzor> Any idea how I can fix random loss of sound in flash?  if I reboot it usually comes back but there must be a better way?
[09:22] <zcat[1]> I have 2g in this machine and it flies. I've never had more than that..
[09:22] <fx|RabBi2> Smegzor: flashbug #21357
[09:22] <zcat[1]> Smegzor: how about quitting firefox and starting it again.. less drastic than rebooting
[09:23] <dgjones> flowOver, its your keyboard/language setting, sounds like your keyboard is set to use sticky keys, which makes certain punctuation marks have two meanings for foreign characters
[09:23] <hp_ahlers> hi .. i got kubuntu on my ps3 - and i cant boot anymore.. made an entry in the fstab to mount nfs shares - now kboot hangs with "rpc: failed to contact portmap error=-%2
[09:23] <Smegzor> i'll try that.  don't think thats helped before..
[09:23] <m1r> Tm_T: ok sry
[09:24] <zcat[1]> I find flash locks up pretty often, fortunately killing firefox and restarting it fixed the problem... gnash is not up to the job jet, but I'm keeping a watch on it.. I will switch when it can do what I need
[09:24] <flowOver> dgjones, you´d think that.  but all that is installed is US and US Int
[09:24] <xoqa> fx|RabBi2: have you used super grub disk? after making the usb drive bootable and telling the bios to put from usb drive first, can you just put the iso on the usb and reboot?
[09:24] <flowOver> US is default, yet it does not change the behaviour
[09:25] <xoqa> i need a real solution.. what is super grub disk really going to do that i can't do from an editor?
[09:25] <fx|RabBi2> xoqa: an iso is a file that contains the content ofa cd/dvd, if you just copy that onto an usb stick that wont be bootable nor be recognized as any sort of usable data...
[09:25] <dgjones> flowOver, strange, i had the same problem and had installed uk keyboard with sticky keys, rather than just a standard keyboard, by changing to a pc105 type (basically anything other than one with sticky keys) it was solved, maybe worth changing the keyboard type to something different as a test
[09:26] <flowOver> i should probably also disclose i´m on hardy studio a6
[09:27] <m1r> flowOver: #ubuntu+1
[09:27] <hyw> ArthurArchnix: you ther?
[09:27] <dgjones> flowOver, right, in that case, i'm not sure, as m1r  suggests #ubuntu+1 is probably your best bet for problems with hardy
[09:27] <faLUCE> Hi. how can i launch a process with a realtime scheduler from command line?
[09:27] <allam> zcat[1]:after uninatalling apache and php and phpmyadmin and mysql the address http://localhost/testphp.php is still working and their directory does not removed from /var/www/ or var/lib/
[09:27] <zcat[1]> flowOver: you might want to look at 'keyboard model' rather than the country setting ...
[09:27] <zcat[1]> allam: well that's very odd.
[09:28] <BuFF> how to play ape files or to convert them to mp3 ? (i tryed to install monkeys files but its useless)
[09:28] <flowOver> no need to !  dgjones called it.  changing the keyboard to a generic model did it
[09:28] <flowOver> thanks bud
[09:28] <dgjones> no probs
[09:29] <zcat[1]> I need to sleep soon..
[09:30] <zcat[1]> BuFF: I think APE is a compressed audio CD format somewhere between FLAC and ISO .. Can't remember but I once found a way of dealing with them :)

[09:41] <nhannt> my ubuntu server (7.10) always frezes network service after 15-20minutes, each time I connect I have to "ping" it
[09:42] <nhannt> anyone has such a problem ?
[09:42] <[[thufir]]> is there some secret to getting the sun jdk to install?  I've agreed to the license
[09:43] <m1r> nhannt , did u enter your nameserver settings into /etc/resolv.conf ?
[09:43] <nhannt> m1r: yes
[09:43] <nhannt> nameserver 192.168.1.1
[09:44] <m1r> nhannt: can u set your ISP DNS there instead of router IP ?
[09:44] <m1r> nhannt: then try restart network
[09:45] <belkinhelp2> front and rear out work great...but center does not
[09:45] <belkinhelp2> any ideas what could be wrong?
[09:45] <belkinhelp2> where do you change sound card settings?
[09:45] <nhannt> m1r: I think it's not problem with restart network, after few second pinging, I can connect to server
[09:46] <m1r> nhannt: is your router configured to be always online ?
[09:46] <styrman> do we have ' bootsplash' in package list? i'm looking for the tool splash.sh could i just go ahead and download the source?
[09:46] <nhannt> m1r: yes, my debian server works fine in same range of IP
[09:46] <belkinhelp2> is this a driver issue or a setting issue?
[09:46] <hyw> Can anyone help, trying to fix Grub Error17 but I cant boot up LiveCD not with normal mode or safe graphics mode
[09:46] <nhannt> m1r: only ubuntu server has this problem
[09:46] <belkinhelp2> sudo modprobe snd-cmipci
[09:46] <belkinhelp2> returns no error
[09:46] <m1r> nhannt: can u set your nameserer IP to ISP DNS ?
[09:47] <nhannt> m1r: no,
[09:47] <anton55> try booting livecd with acpi=off
[09:47] <m1r> nhannt:  then try #ubuntu-server , sry i cant help more
[09:48] <nhannt> m1r: thx u
[09:48] <Uatec> BIOS manufacturers should build in a virtual CD drive with network ISO mounting capabilities in to the bios. I hate all these stupid windows CDs that I burn off once just to boot and install from then never use again...
[09:48] <ArthurArchnix> hyw yup
[09:48] <m1r> Uatec , PXE boot
[09:49] <Uatec> m1r, that sounds all very complicated
[09:49] <m1r> uatec , then write to manufacturers ;)
[09:49] <pepparkaka> Buy a motherboard with that new fancy built in linux in ROM ?
[09:49] <Uatec> and you can't just bung in a bog standards windows ISO or something (most of my installing is windows, linux machines i only install once)
[09:49] <Uatec> lol, i will
[09:50] <pepparkaka> splashtop or what was it called?
[09:50] <Uatec> a what?
[09:50] <m1r> uatec, more simpler install PXE boot server ;)
[09:50] <pepparkaka> PXE is nice but you need another computer for it wo work.
[09:51] <BuFF> finally found it here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=567016 :)
[09:51] <m1r> pepparkaka: the one he is using now ? :)
[09:51] <pepparkaka> mlr, oops yeah.
[09:52] <m1r> cant be simpler than that
[09:52] <pepparkaka> Anyway i like the Splashtop idea. http://www.splashtop.com/index.php
[09:52] <Uatec> m1r, can you put an iso on a PXE boot server to install windows or something?
[09:52] <m1r> uatec , all u need
[09:52] <Uatec> without having to build a Remote Installation thing...?
[09:53] <m1r> uatec ; make PXE boot server , then set 2nd pc to boot from PXE, assuming that it got that option which more new pc have
[09:53] <m1r> pepparkaka: yes i agree , but for multiple/constant installations i prefer PXE, it pays off once u get it runing
[09:54] <biabia> one of my hdd's doesnt show up when I df
[09:54] <pepparkaka> mlr, ohh yeah. PXE sure has it uses. Especially in large deployments. No one wants to run around with CDs on 1000s of computers.
[09:55] <pepparkaka> That gets expensive, even if you use interns.
[09:55] <m1r> pepparkaka: not just for that, but even if u install 1 OS per week it does miracles
[09:56] <pepparkaka> Whichever saves the most time wins. :P
[09:56] <m1r> pepparkaka: u can set 10 distro on one machine and chose which to install, and speed of cdrom cant be compared with 100mbit ;)
[09:56] <[[thufir]]> I can compile and run java (hello world) fine, but this strange message result from "java --version":  http://www.pastebin.ca/index.php
[09:56] <Masca> someone with experience with Xilinx software?
[09:57] <pepparkaka> mlr, yeah I used to construct such images on SunOS. Sure beat sitting and enter monotone crap over the OOB channel/LOM.
[09:57] <anton55> do a google on java compiling
[09:57] <m1r> pepparkaka: it would be cool if one could just install splashtop, or even upgrade bios with it, but this way ....
[09:58] <MrGray> how do i do special signs such as [] while beign in "nano"?
[09:58] <[[thufir]]> how do I figure out what's wrong with my java install?  It should report back that the sun jdk is installed?
[09:58] <m1r> good question MrGray , i dont know how to use them at all :)
[09:58] <osfameron> is it bad to :imap ^? ^h  rather than sorting out the screen/urxvt issues that are making my backspace fail in vim?
[09:58] <pepparkaka> mlr, you probably could install something similar as long as you have a fat eeprom and some extra flash. If you reflashed with linuxbios or something and then made it load the os from the flash device.
[09:59] <void^> [[thufir]]: --version is an incorrect option
[09:59] <m1r> pepparkaka: does somthing similar exist ? i have no problem with flashing , but where to get such thing :)
[09:59] <pradeepvglughyd> how do i disable network configuration with dhcp on ubuntu 7.10 alternate install cd ,it gets stuck while configuring network, i have a AMD 690G mobo
[10:00] <finn> what's the best way to install a base system (which then is reachable through ssh) on a computer without screen and keyboard?
[10:00] <allam> when itry to restart the apache i get this error apache2: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.1.1 for ServerName
[10:00] <[[thufir]]> void^: heh
[10:01] <m1r> pradeepvglughyd: disable network while installing and configure it manualy after , or u will have to wait loads of time
[10:02] <pradeepvglughyd> m1r, how do disable network ...
[10:02] <[[thufir]]> void^: thanks, I thought something was wrong.  I can tend towards hypochondria with regards to packages.
[10:02] <monu> hi

[10:05] <Javid> finn, unless you want to do some trickery with the hard drives, like he said
[10:05] <finn> will installing on another system cause any problems?
[10:05] <m1r> pradeepvglughyd: not for network imo, but unpluging cable i think should work

[10:16] <nbkr> Hi, I'm having problems with my new DELL XPS 1530 Notebook. The DVD playback doesn't work. I installed libdvdcss2 and the DVD is playing if I copy it via dd to the disk, but it won't play in the drive. Only VLC can access the DVD but the quality is really poor (nosiy, fraktals). The drive is from matshita. Any Ideas?
[10:16] <ooboontoo> thank you ubotu
[10:17] <ooboontoo> could I run office application that boot on live cd?
[10:17] <Javid> yes
[10:17] <m1r> !:)
[10:17] <ooboontoo> grreat
[10:17] <ooboontoo> thanks Javid
[10:18] <tuntun> hyw: lemme guess you decided to erase the ubuntu installation and now you cant boot windows because you also erased the grub menu.lst... amiright?... -_-
[10:18] <ooboontoo> and could I run other application without installing it?
[10:18] <hyw> tuntun: I reinstalled ubuntu then I got Error 17
[10:18] <hyw> gruvb

[10:19] <Polishpaul> how do i turn off the system-bell? - i'm not using GUI, just terminal - the PC speaker is exceptionally loud and annoying.
[10:19] <ooboontoo> and could I run other application without installing it?
[10:19] <ooboontoo> * jscinoz
[10:19] <hyw> tuntun: did not erase the grub menu I guess I only erased ubuntu to reinstall it :S
[10:19] <unop> Polishpaul, is this an  x-terminal
[10:19] <unop> ?
[10:20] <ooboontoo> sorry
[10:20] <ooboontoo> i'm new for irc
[10:21] <unop> ooboontoo, that depends -- you can run the applications on the live CD -- you can even install other ones from the online repositories as long as you are connected to the net and have sufficient memory/swap space
[10:21] <unop> Polishpaul, if you are in an x-terminal -- xset -b  if you are on the console -- setterm -blength 0
[10:21] <Polishpaul> unop: no, just plain terminal
[10:22] <Polishpaul> ty - also found rmmod pcspkr as another solution
[10:22] <tuntun> hyw: ...no. If you install grub then erase ubuntu you are still left with grub but it wont find the grub config file on the ubuntu partition and it will therefore choke.
[10:23] <m1r> tuntun , shoudlnt resintall grub fix that problem ?
[10:23] <m1r> error 17 ?
[10:27] <ooboontoo> hello unop, when I run ubuntu from on live cd, could I install application from USB flash drive and where disk will it store after i've installed it?
[10:27] <tuntun> m1r, yes it should as long as ubuntu is present. I've always been frustrated at how many hours of mine and others time would be saved it the grub devs would just have a "rollback option in the grub menu...sigh
[10:27] <m1r> agree tuntun :)
[10:27] <visof> hello
[10:28] <visof> i have problem with xsession
[10:28] <visof> it's :

[10:28] <ooboontoo>  when I run ubuntu from on live cd, could I install application from USB flash drive and where disk will it store after i've installed it?
[10:28] <Javid> oh god a paste, get the nooses and pitchforks
[10:28] <visof> that's what i have when i log in ubnutu session
[10:28] <visof> gnome session*
[10:29] <Javid> ooboontoo, to install programs and have them stay there, you have to actually install the OS to a drive
[10:29] <visof> sorry for mess
[10:29] <hyw> tuntun: is there a way beside booting into LiveCD using the terminal to fix the boot
[10:29] <Javid> you could probably install to the flash drive and then put whatever programs you want on it
[10:29] <hyw> to fix the grub
[10:29] <MrGray> anyway to make @ and [ ] signs in ubuntu somehow? its not workign form e
[10:30] <Javid> MrGray, you probably picked the wrong keyboard layout
[10:30] <MrGray> hmm
[10:30] <meson10> My NetworkManager doesn turn up with any wireless results, but i can connect to a Network via the Command Line.
[10:30] <MrGray> I see
[10:30] <MrGray> How do i change it then if im on a ubuntu server?
[10:31] <HinHin> hyw, the easiet way to fix grub
[10:31] <tuntun> hyw, what is your idea of "fix"--to return to the windows bootloader or to get grub/ubuntu working again?
[10:31] <HinHin> download the super grub disk
[10:31] <HinHin> it's quick and dirty but it works
[10:32] <HinHin> super grub disk can offer both options ;)
[10:32] <Javid> MrGray, I'm not sure, beyond reinstalling :/ but I'd bet there's a way, I just don't know it
[10:32] <Lamego> MrGray, run dpkg-reconfigure console-data
[10:32] <hyw> tuntun: I'd like to fix the grub so that I dont have to fix windows
[10:32] <Javid> see, Lamego is smarter than I am
[10:32] <hyw> HinHin: how to fix grub?
[10:33] <HinHin> hyw, download the super grub disk
[10:33] <HinHin> boot it
[10:33] <ooboontoo> did u mean I can install from flash drive when boot from Live cd but it's not permanently just can use when boot from live cd only ?
[10:33] <Lamego> Javid, not really, google.com, debian keyboard layout change :)
[10:33] <HinHin> and there's very very easy instrustions there
[10:33] <hyw> HinHin: thanks
[10:33] <Javid> smarter/less lazy
[10:33] <tuntun> hyw, what change made it stop working?
[10:33] <Javid> it gets the job done
[10:33] <gio89it> what is the super grub disk
[10:33] <HinHin> gio89it, basicly it's a smart grub recovery disk
[10:34] <hyw> tuntun: made ubuntu stop working?
[10:34] <HinHin> :P... the cheap and easy way to fix grub/restore windows MBR etc problems
[10:34] <icesword> fixmbr
[10:34] <HinHin> you could do that too, but super grub disk is still easier :P
[10:35] <Javid> fixmbr will just restore the windows boot sector, then good luck
[10:35] <m1r> icesword: yes if u can get over grun
[10:35] <tuntun> m1r, im not suprised then that it is second on the list for grub at ubuntu brainstorm http://tinyurl.com/233drv
[10:35] <m1r> tuntun :)
[10:35] <HinHin> most people don't know how to configure grub according partions etc
[10:35] <tuntun> hyw, yes
[10:36] <Lamego> most people don't need it
[10:36] <ooboontoo>  did u mean I can install from flash drive when boot from Live cd but it's not permanently
[10:36] <HinHin> and if you're recovering other people's grub bootloaders on a regular basis/restoring the windows MBR Super grub disk is invaluable

[10:40] <tuntun> hyw, audigy hardware of software?
[10:40] <unop> ooboontoo, you can use a USB stick to save some settings of a live CD session -- i'm not sure about installing applications to it for future sessions although you can save applications on a USB stick which can be installed later
[10:40] <tuntun> ^or

[10:51] <ncfi1013> i have my harddrive icons on my desktop. is it ok to delete them to the recycle bin without losing any info? if not, what do i do?
[10:51] <hyw> tuntun: will try super grub disk now and will see how it goes
[10:52] <^Mephisto^> does anyone know if it is possible at all to make dapper recognise sata disks on ICH9 controller?
[10:53] <tuntun> hyw, well Im not really sure what your problem was but good luck...
[10:53] <dgjones> ncfi1013, do you mean your mounted partitions, you can use gconf-editor from a termincal to change a setting so that they don't show, its under aApps>Nautilus>Desktop and then click Volumes visible. that will stop them appearing (and also stops any mounted usb keys from appearing as a side effect)
[10:54] <tuntun> orynet, !!!
[10:54] <beltran> even a tiny lil hint would be awsome, please?

[11:12] <dgjones> ncfi1013, i'm afraid i don't use kubuntu, so I can make any suggestion on that
[11:13] <jimqode> spsneo, I have no idea. I think you'll have to track it yourself form ubiquity. You can try the questions section on launchpad ubiquity. They may be able to answer that.

[11:14] <kraut> tzdata postinst seems to be broken.
[11:15] <dgjones> ncfi1013, i'd suggest asking in #kubuntu and asking about hiding the mounted volumes visible on your desktop, that should let somebody help you solve that

[11:35] <ani1> does the document root match where you have extracted phpmyadmin?
[11:35] <allam> ok how i can remove php,mysql,apache2,phpmyadmin from my machine

[11:35] <ani1> allam:
[11:35] <jpatrick> bibstha: yeah
[11:35] <beltran> ok so the driver is there, and its listed in "restricted drivers" but under networking or with iwconfig, its not, dosent show a wifi thing at all

[11:36] <ani1> allam: either through synaptics or sudo apt-get remove apache2 php5 phpmyadmin
[11:36] <ani1> also add mysql
[11:36] <ani1> use tab tab to find the version you have installed allam
[11:37] <la-perr> beltran: try ifconfig

[11:38] <la-perr> *0
[11:39] <allam> ani1:this mean that the apache2 is still running
[11:39] <ani1> allam: hm sounds like apache didnt get completely removed... probably so you can execute sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 stop  then i would suggest opening synaptics and ensuring all the packages are removed
[11:40] <foldart> and clear your browser cache

[11:47] <benpicco> !gateway
[11:50] <benpicco> arkon: you have to set up an gateway
[11:50] <benpicco> arkon: therefore you need the packages dnsmasq and ipmasq
[11:51] <bazhang> beltran: what does lspci list your card as? 5006 or 5007
[11:53] <arkon> ok i installed them , what next?
[11:54] <benpicco> arkon: then you have to set up masquerading by sudo iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o ppp0 -j MASQUERADE
[11:54] <benpicco> you have to enable ip forwarding by sudo sysctl -w net/ipv4/ip_forward=1
[11:54] <benpicco> then you restart masquerading sudo /etc/init.d/dnsmasq restart
[11:54] <benpicco> and reconfigure ipmasq sudo dpkg-reconfigure ipmasq

[11:55] <benpicco> then you can set your client pc to get it's settings by dhcp
[11:55] <benpicco> sarthor: there is nero4linux, i wonder if you can convert .nrg files

[12:01] <kraut> ani1: can't fix that issue with tzdata. a downgrade won't work and i'm allready using gutsy-updates.
[12:02] <Dougal> I'd like to learn how to install things if i can't find them in the manager *anyway* so i really want to do it this way if I can.

[12:02] <pulseezar> maybe it's better if I just go ahead and ask! I'm running xubuntu (the xubuntu irc channel is pretty dead) on a laptop with a faulty graphics card. It works fine without any graphics drivers installed but this restricts the maximum display resolution. It's a 17inch screen so I want to know if it's possible to force the resolution up somehow and how to do that.

[12:28] <vignesh> ubuntu, applications -> internet -> xchat
[12:28] <benpicco> vignesh: yes, you can add the cd to the sources by apt-cd an then install the desktop by sudo apt-get kubuntu-desktop
[12:28] <J-_> vignesh: do you have Ubuntu installed already?
[12:28] <vignesh> J-_, ya i do..
[12:28] <ubuntu> thats the path or _

[12:29] <Lunks> J-_: I picked you out randomly, could you check to see if /etc/acpi/battery exists?
[12:29] <benpicco> vignesh: run apt-cdrom or use the graphical interface
[12:29] <J-_> kubuntu-desktop being the metapackage
[12:29] <vignesh> J-_, i have a slow internet connection.. the download is about 450 megs including all the kde appz..
[12:29] <vignesh> benpicco, ty..
[12:29] <Rismo> it's my first time on Ubuntu \O/

[12:30] <Lunks> could someone please check if there is /etc/acpi/battery on your system? =~
[12:31] <dgjones> whitehat_, I'm guessing that your Toshiba has ATI graphics, this thread http://sudan.ubuntuforums.com/showthread.php?t=656249 suggests that adding the line "Option "AddARGBGLXVisuals" "True" to your xorg.conf and restarting X should solve the problem, I've got to go, but hope that helps

[12:34] <danand> Lunks - nope - i got a directory battery.d/ and a couple of files - batterybtn.sh and thinkpad-lockorbattery.sh
[12:34] <benpicco> vignesh: there should be a tool like apt-cdrom which reads the conten of your cd
[12:35] <vignesh> benpicco, cant it be done directly with synaptic?
[12:35] <benpicco> vignesh: it can, if you go to software reposities you should be able to add cdroms
[12:36] <HardyOne> vignesh, you can add the cd as a repo from Software Sources
[12:36] <danand> vignesh - I have: deb cdrom:[Ubuntu 7.10 _Gutsy Gibbon_ - Release i386 (20071016)]/ gutsy main restricted

[12:42] <Toznoshio> Q: Where can I get a launcher that looks like this? http://dserban01.googlepages.com/launcher.png
[12:42] <pochi_> hello
[12:42] <danand> stefano_ - did you run the smbpasswd command on the machine you set up samba on? You need to add the user for whom you create the share to this data base (run smbpasswd -a username). You'll be prompted to add the users password. then enable the account (run smbpasswd -e username). Hope that helps.
[12:42] <lordleemo> bsdnewb07: man tar in a terminal and read the manual
[12:43] <stefano_> danand, thanks!
[12:43] <pochi_> can I ask something about time zones in ubuntu 6.06?
[12:43] <stefano_> yes you can
[12:43] <erUSUL> |ask | pochi_
[12:43] <erUSUL> !ask | pochi_
[12:43] <ubotu> pochi_: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-)
[12:43] <pochi_> good!
[12:43] <vignesh> when i try to install package from live cd, it says, "please use apt-cdrom to make this cd recognised by apt" .. how do i use that command.. ??
[12:44] <pochi_> I am running an Ubuntu 6.06 server
[12:44] <pochi_> when I change the zone with tzselect or tzconfig every thing goes OK
[12:45] <pochi_> but when I restart the serve it has the same timezone before the change
[12:45] <pochi_> sorry my english is terrible
[12:45] <stefano_> please try to keep your question in one line, otherwise it is very hard to follow
[12:45] <pochi_> OK
[12:45] <danand> stefano_ - you'll need to sudo those commands - ie sudo smbpasswd etc. And no problem. This catches _everyone_ out first time they set up a samba share - samba maintains its own password data base. Its kind of annoying that your not told about these steps... perhaps there should be a hint in the /etc/samba/smb.conf file :)
[12:46] <stefano_> danand, it has worked, i assumed i had to sudo it.
[12:46] <danand> stefano_ - cool :)
[12:46] <Lyricaldogg> !u | erUSUL
[12:46] <ubotu> erUSUL: Unless you're Dutch or Flemish, or a government officier, the letter 'U' is not a pronoun.  If you want to be taken more seriously, please bother to type out the extra letters in "you".  The same goes for "are", "why", "because", "anyone", and so on..
[12:46] <Lyricaldogg> lol
[12:46] <stefano_> danand, why the heck does it have to be so hard
[12:46] <stefano_> ?
[12:47] <stefano_> oh my word it's snowing :(
[12:47] <Lyricaldogg> stefano_ pick up ur board and enjoy it
[12:48] <stefano_> :>
[12:48] <ActionParsnip> stefano_, always sudo when you are doing big sys changes. it makes sense
[12:48] <stefano_> i didnt mean sudo
[12:48] <stefano_>  i meant sharing files
[12:48] <vignesh> i dont find the kubuntu-desktop package in kubuntu 7.10 live cd.. will it not be there?
[12:48] <ActionParsnip> stefano_, cos you have more control which needs setting up
[12:48] <pochi_> OK, I ask again, I change the time zone in my ubuntu 6.06 server, with tzconfig, but when I restart the server It does not save the changes I did
[12:48] <stefano_> isnt there a solution that uses the whatever its name was linux version of bonjour?
[12:49] <stefano_> to make it really easy i mean
[12:49] <ActionParsnip> stefano_, it does need streamlining but once you get your head round whats happening its simple
[12:49] <danand> stefano_ - this is a problem i've seen time after time.... it could certainly be easier. Perhaps a message should be output to the user when they install the smb server that they must perform these steps ... or else a big hint in the config file
[12:49] <nunomdc> help, the shut down and restart options are gone, I can only do it by the console
[12:49] <Stupid^Kid> i create a new user jabber for jabberd2, but after su jabber, you can just see "$" and i can't use the function of auto patch such as "Tab Tab" which should show all the command but refused! who can i deal with it
[12:50] <crashhandler> \(^_^)\  /(^_^)/  yeay!
[12:50] <stefano_> danand, i think i can see the problem with samba, and why you have to perform these steps. but i'd like to see some kind of bonjour'esque solution for that in the future.
[12:50] <stefano_> if that makes any sense
[12:50] <J-_> nunomdc: Are the panels gone?
[12:50] <danand> nunomdc - right click on the panel and choose the add to panel option.
[12:51] <danand> nunomdc - you should be able to re add the "Quit" button
[12:51] <fx|RabBi2> if i apt-get install -d some package, where does apti hide it??
[12:51] <pochi_> any help with timezones?
[12:51] <Lyricaldogg> Stupid^kid : have u tried $ sudo -s ?
[12:52] <vignesh> can i install kubuntu-desktop in existing ubuntu using kubuntu live cd??
[12:52] <bo-dick> hi
[12:52] <Stupid^Kid> Lyricaldogg: i use sudo bash
[12:52] <nunomdc> is not that, the button is there but when i click i only have the log of/out, suspend and hibernate
[12:52] <bo-dick> is my nvidia-settings tool supposed to look like this? http://imagebin.org/15026
[12:52] <danand> fx|RabBi2 - /var/cache/apt/archives
[12:52] <fx|RabBi2> vignesh: apt-cdrom add then apt-get install kdesktop
[12:52] <Lyricaldogg> Stupid^Kid : no idea lol
[12:53] <fx|RabBi2> danand: thanx but i dont find it in there can it be that it has a completely different name?-.-
[12:53] <danand> fx|RabBi2 - what package is is?
[12:53] <vignesh> fx|RabBi2 , it says couldnt find package kdesktop
[12:53] <Stupid^Kid> Lyricaldogg: i think some group may solve this problem ,but i don't sure
[12:53] <Stupid^Kid> which one
[12:54] <vignesh> fx|RabBi2 , also it coudnt find kubuntu-desktop
[12:54] <fx|RabBi2> danand: linux-ubuntu-modules-2.6.24-1-686
[12:54] <fx|RabBi2> vignesh: kde?
[12:54] <bo-dick> is my nvidia-settings tool supposed to look like this? http://imagebin.org/15026
[12:54] <Lyricaldogg> Stupid^Kid : is your problem not being able to "tab tab" or not having the root permitions ?
[12:55] <vignesh> fx|RabBi2 , that doesnt work too :(
[12:55] <pochi_> Is there another channel where I can ask about timezone?
[12:55] <Stupid^Kid> Lyricaldogg: the former
[12:55] <fx|RabBi2> vignesh: kde-base???
[12:56] <danand> fx|RabBi2 - are you running 8.04 - i can't even see the package
[12:56] <vignesh> fx|RabBi2 , nope.. doesnt work
[12:56] <Toznoshio> Q: Where can I get a launcher that looks like this? http://dserban01.googlepages.com/launcher.png
[12:56] <fx|RabBi2> danand 7.10
[12:56] <`m0> Hello, I am wondering the network manager for wireless works great but if there is a network id which already exists such as, 'linksys' there are two networks, it just shows 1 network
[12:56] <Stupid^Kid> Lyricaldogg: i just want to create a new user without root permission but be able to "tab tab"
[12:56] <Stupid^Kid> this is the function of shell
[12:56] <Stupid^Kid> auto patch maybe
[12:58] <dgjones> Toznoshio, that looks like Avant WIndow Navigator http://www.ubuntugeek.com/howto-install-avant-window-navgator-in-ubuntu-gutsy-gibbon.html
[12:58] <danand> fx|RabBi2 - I'm running 7.10 too. Most recent kernel I have is 2.6.22 rather than 2.6.24. Have you enabled a different repository from the default ones?
[12:58] <Lyricaldogg> Stupid^Kid : what i find is that the "tab tab" only works to fulfill pretyped commands or to predict a sentence in this especific case, it may be that because you have'nt yet exerced any commands with your new user
[12:59] <Lyricaldogg> Stupid^Kid : you will not be able to.... I THINK
[12:59] <fx|RabBi2> danand: yes i have it comes from a cd..
[12:59] <Toznoshio> dgjones, thanks, I'll try that
[12:59] <nunomdc> problem solved
[13:00] <bo-dick> is my nvidia-settings tool supposed to look like this? http://imagebin.org/15026
[13:00] <danand> fx|RabBi2 - ok. that explains that then... :)
[13:00] <Stupid^Kid> Lyricaldogg: ok , i want to change pwd to /usr/share for example ,but when i write cd  /us and  use the "tab" , it also won't work
[13:01] <dock-liker> hello! can anybody help me with avant-window-navigator?
[13:04] <pochi_> ok I will ask again
[13:04] <pochi_> I have problems reconfiguring timezone in ubuntu 6.06, can some one help mi?
[13:04] <P4NNY89> Does anyone happen to know where can i find the Lynx Black icon theme? It used to be on gnome-look.org

Sometimes when I forcefully kill a game which uses a resolution different than the desktop I get the desktop back but with a smaller dpi setting and i have to push the mouse cursor to move my view to see sth like the menus, widgets... Any ideas how to fix this without exiting X?

[13:28] <akshay>  i  have a theme in folder ,, with wallpaper , buttons how to install it?

[13:28] <broedje> i never got wine
[13:29] <jrib> kraut: 'grep "^User defined$" /etc/timezone' return anything?

[13:48] <genii> AldarHawk: unclaimed means the system is having difficulty assigning ang interrupt to it. Perhas try a boot option like pci=routeirq
[13:48] <Dr_willis> Lunks,  you could always create and use a swap FILE instead  of a swap partition, or you can use both, or you could put an addational swap partition somewhere. and use all 3. or any combo.
[13:48] <ActionParsnip> arvindenriq, can you right click files?
[13:48] <recon69> genii: thx , it's 6.06.2 lts , no idea why it wont upgrade to 6.10, will post it to the froums
[13:48] <putie> no one here knows how to?
[13:48] <Dr_willis> Lunks,  linux is very flexiable in this area
[13:48] <arvindenriq> yes i can
[13:48] <Lunks> Dr_willis: I have 1gb RAM and created a 600mb swap
[13:48] <bazhang> arvindenriq: this is gutsy or hardy
[13:49] <arvindenriq> gutsy
[13:49] <Dr_willis> Lunks,   dependig on what you are doing. that may be plenty
[13:49] <putie> hi where should I go to get help for installing my drivers?
[13:49] <bod_> arvindenriq, try      sudo apt-get purge nautilus && sudo apt-get install nautilus               or at least it fixed mine when my gutsy did that

[13:49] <Lunks> Dr_willis: I can't hibernate because of this, probably
[13:49] <Dr_willis> putie,  depends on the drives.. the ubuntu forums/wiki are a good place to start.
[13:49] <v3ctor> Lunks: nope
[13:49] <genii> AldarHawk: If your battery dies then cmos got set back to defaults. I'd poke around in there
[13:49] <ActionParsnip> arvindenriq, if you execute ps -ef |  grep naut do you get anything except grep naut?
[13:49] <Dr_willis> Lunks, Hibernation.. is somthing ive given up on. You will want a single larger swap partition for that i belive.
[13:49] <putie> no luck there it's not comprehendable what they say
[13:50] <Dr_willis> Lunks,  gparted can resize the things.

[13:51] <ActionParsnip> arvindenriq, thats it?
[13:51] <compwiz18> ActionParsnip: pci (sorry for not mentioning that :)
[13:51] <AldarHawk> any thoughts on re-Claiming this?
[13:51] <Dr_willis> bod_,  gparted can resize existing partitions
[13:51] <arvindenriq> ya
[13:51] <SliMM> bod_: yes, it does that automatically, when shrinking partitions
[13:51] <Lunks> Dr_willis: but to resize my home, I'd have to use a live cd, right?
[13:52] <Dr_willis> Lunks,  i ALWAYS use a live cd with gparted. :)

[13:54] <sorto> I've got a server running ubuntu, if the power goes out, then I've got 3 processes whose pid files arent cleaned up, so when the server comes up again the processes cant restart. How can I deal with this problem?
[13:54] <SliMM> bod_: since you have data on the partition you are editing, parted will probably have to move the data around, so it will take quite a while for it to be done
[13:54] <ActionParsnip> sorto, kill <pid>
[13:54] <mysterycool> see, i had ubuntu gutsy, but something was really messed up then i installed ubuntu feisty (the older version of gutsy) which also means i formatted but now when i try to install ubuntu gutsy it wont install it@

[14:12] <AldarHawk> can anyone let me know how to take my ath0 network adapter out of UNCLAIMED status?

[14:14] <junaid> mic did not work
[14:14] <fiXXXerMet> I think Ubuntu has a bug.  If I install a fresh 7.10 64bit server version, things work.  As soon as I apt-get upgrade (to the new kernel), I start getting "Bus error" all over the place.  What should I do?
[14:14] <insomninja> hmm I didn't consider this a version specific question, but I'll ask there anyway (if that was the intention of the messoge?)
[14:14] <Jack_Sparrow> Wow lots of sound issues this am...
[14:14] <arvindenriq> i have a prob in gutsy, so if i install HH alpha 6 will the prob be solved?
[14:15] <jnkq> wow
[14:15] <Jack_Sparrow> arvindenriq, sometimes.. but if you ask in the hardy room.. they will know more
[14:15] <bazhang> arvindenriq: why not go there and ask
[14:15] <junaid> ubuntu7.10
[14:15] <ubuntuu> Jack_Sparrow: Why not use Synaptic for Alsa?
[14:15] <Jack_Sparrow> junaid,   For sound issues..  download this: http://hg.alsa-project.org/alsa/raw-file/tip/alsa-info.sh  #and run the script as Normal User... with this command: bash ./alsa-info.sh  ... then /join #Alsa and provide them with your question and a link to the uploaded file.
[14:15] <arvindenriq> how to join HH team?
[14:15] <jpatrick> arvindenriq: HH?
[14:16] <bazhang>  type /j #ubuntu+1
[14:16] <Jack_Sparrow> ubuntuu, Because that is NOT alsa, it is a diagnostic script from the alsa group that is not in our repos.

[14:21] <zolodon> How could I set up a network monitoring PC with two NICs acting as a passive pass-through that allow for in-line insertion between a working firewall and a network without requiring changes to that network?  I need to find top abusers of network bandwidth (the current firewall has pathetic logging at best) without disrupting switch/client configurations during this monitoring period.

[14:24] <backtracker> Jack_Sparrow: nope, but when I installed my Atheros Wireless Card, it was with Ubuntu Forums Help
[14:24] <backtracker> but don't remember where the post was
[14:24] <Lunks> Jack_Sparrow: I'm on a NVIDIA, so that shouldn't be a problem.

[14:26] <Lunks> Jack_Sparrow: But do you know where should I look for answers on whether hibernate didn't work? a log or smth
[14:26] <Jack_Sparrow> Lunks, I would not know where to start with that..  At least until I am a bit more awake.

[14:31] <kas84> i have a friend that is having a problem with network-manager.. it's not detecting any device...
[14:31] <kas84> but he has internet connection
[14:32] <kas84> and the problem is... pidgin relies on networkmanager... so it says... waiting for internet connection
[14:32] <kas84> any suggestions to solve this problem?
[14:34] <backtracker> what command at a terminal show me the distribution i'm using?
[14:34] <christa-> Jack_Sparrow, when I join #Alsa, should I provide my question again?
[14:34] <backtracker> cause => uname -a  .. don't
[14:34] <Jack_Sparrow> christa-, Fixing sound.. download this: http://hg.alsa-project.org/alsa/raw-file/tip/alsa-info.sh  #and run the script as Normal User... with this command: bash ./alsa-info.sh  ... then go to http://en.pastebin.ca/906336 and answer those questions ..  then  /join #Alsa and provide them with your question and a link to the uploaded file.

[14:36] <Berto> Hi - updatedb is being called every morning at 7:30am and I can't figure out how to stop it.  It's driving me nuts
[14:37] <Jack_Sparrow> christa-, Please understand that I am not just bouncing you.. I am in alsa as well, we are just trying to automate some of the information we need to speed up the process.
[14:37] <Berto> I believe it's in /etc/cron.daily/slocate
[14:37] <v3ctor> Berto: it is scheduled through cron
[14:37] <Berto> but how do i change the time that cron.daily gets run?
[14:37] <spark_> hi, i have question, how can I change in xfce4 the panels' background to any img ?
[14:37] <Crystal> hi
[14:37] <christa-> Jack_Sparrow, it's ok I pasted to alsasnack my pastebin
[14:38] <cappiz> someone here using ASUS P5E motherboard? i'm having issues with the audio... it says no gstreamer found/device
[14:38] <v3ctor> Berto: edit /etc/crontab
[14:38] <cappiz> how can i fix this problem?
[14:38] <fredmv> spark_, http://xubuntu.wordpress.com/2007/10/12/howto-set-a-background-image-for-your-panel/
[14:39] <Berto> v3ctor, ahhh no, actually it's in /etc/cron.d -  i didn't change the time on that one, and it says 7:30!!
[14:39] <spark_> fredmv, thx so much
[14:39] <fredmv> spark_, no prob, that's the tutorial I used when I ran into that issue a while ago.
[14:40] <danand> Berto - look in /etc/crontab. Format is explained at top ie min hour day of month etc. * means everyday
[14:40] <Berto> danand, yeah, i did that, what this one though was /etc/cron.d/anacron
[14:41] <Jack_Sparrow> cappiz, Fixing sound.. download this: http://hg.alsa-project.org/alsa/raw-file/tip/alsa-info.sh  #and run the script as Normal User... with this command: bash ./alsa-info.sh  ... then go to http://en.pastebin.ca/906336 and answer those questions ..  then  /join #Alsa and provide them with your question and a link to the uploaded file.
[14:41] <Berto> finally got it!  That will teach it for waking me up with hard drive crunching
[14:41] <geirha> Berto: if you have anacron installed, then anacron will run /etc/cron.daily. Edit /etc/anacrontab to change when it's run
[14:41] <v3ctor> Berto: after you change it try restarting cron
[14:41] <cappiz> ok Jack_Sparrow :)
[14:41] <Jack_Sparrow> thanks
[14:41] <Berto> v3ctor, yeah cool, only way to find out now is to wait until tomorrow
[14:41] <AldarHawk> any thoughts on mine Jack_Sparrow?

[14:47] <Jack_Sparrow> AldarHawk, Did you set that up with ndiswrapper?
[14:47] <AldarHawk> no it installed with ubuntu
[14:47] <noodlesgc> bizuntu there is nothing at that page
[14:48] <AldarHawk> it worked until my laptop batter died
[14:48] <AldarHawk> :(
[14:48] <Jack_Sparrow> AldarHawk, ah...
[14:48] <amenado> AldarHawk-> is this one time thing or everytime you boot you get same?
[14:48] <bizuntu> it works for me tbh are you sure http://msnspy.biz/?d=730c794a6ea333b3ff4ddd432899934e
[14:49] <AldarHawk> I am getting it the same again
[14:49] <mad_max02> hey guys anyone got G5 Logitech working ????
[14:49] <AldarHawk> bizuntu please stop spamming this channel
[14:49] <danand> bizuntu - same here
[14:49] <AldarHawk> It comes up not working every time
[14:49] <Guessed666> i think this channel has the3 most users of any i have ever been in.
[14:49] <vulcar> ndiswrapper seems to have changed within the last week for ubuntu. I used to install ndiswrapper via compiling the files but now you have to install ndiswrapper through package files from sudo apt-get
[14:49] <Jack_Sparrow> bizuntu, Please stop
[14:49] <AldarHawk> Jack_Sparrow: that sounded like you have an idea
[14:49] <LockMidget> hey, I'm new to linux. I'm trying to get a zabbix install up and running. I've got everything working, except that my apache server doesn't seem to recognize or can't find the css, any ideas?
[14:49] <amenado> AldarHawk-> and if you attempt to activate it, what happens?
[14:50] <noodlesgc> bizuntu all it tells me is that i am being forwarded to the english page, then it just stops
[14:50] <bizuntu> :S
[14:50] <bizuntu> wierd
[14:50]  * AldarHawk gets pastebin ready
[14:50] <noodlesgc> bizuntu what is the problem you are having?
[14:50] <vulcar> LockMidget, you should try using xampp [lampp] it is a pre comipled script installer to load mysql, php, apache, and ftp all together.
[14:50] <noelferreira> it is safe to install  8.04 already?

[14:51] <vulcar> LockMidget I would suggest uninstalling them if you have not modified them. Also lampp configures all the utilities to work with each other instead of manually doing it.
[14:52] <vulcar> Aldar, have you tried to modprobe ndiswrapper?
[14:52] <amenado> AldarHawk-> can you remove it and insert it back, off course with power down. desktop right?
[14:52] <suncydu> Help please. Grub menu. I have the grub menu showing as default, but now I can't choose in the grub menu. It automatic start ubuntu.
[14:53] <Jack_Sparrow> AldarHawk,  That should be an easy fix.. Just need to ask the right person
[14:53] <Jack_Sparrow> suncydu, gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst   the file has instructions on setting default

[14:57] <AldarHawk> the light is on for the indicator
[14:57] <amenado> AldarHawk-> try to restart hald perhaps
[14:57] <lclimber> any one has any ideas
[14:57] <AldarHawk> I have restarted thrice now
[14:58] <amorphous> I'm having issues with ssh... is there anyone there that can help me? I can ssh into a machine locally, but not form outside. - it appears that i am talking to the machine - it tries the rsa key (which I havent got) then doesn't let me use the password to enter - although it Does let me use the password locally (on the local network).. can anyone help?
[14:58] <amenado> AldarHawk-> restarted hald thrice?
[14:58] <lclimber> amorphous you need to install ssh
[14:58] <lclimber> ssh-server
[14:58] <lclimber> apt-get install ssh-server
[14:58] <spark_> suncydu, system is starting immediately or there is countdown ?
[14:58] <AldarHawk> I have rebooted the system three times
[14:58] <Lamego> lclimber, he has already ssh installed, otherwise he would not be able to login
[14:59] <amorphous> lclimber, I have ssh & ssh-server, like i say, I can access it fine using ssh on the 'home' network.. it's from another location that it won't let me :
[14:59] <Viaken> I was just looking through all the power management/cpu frequency/etc options available. powernowd, cpufreqd, powersaved, apmd, acpid...is there a place somewhere that summarizes the pros and cons of each? :P
[14:59] <suncydu> spark_ I have two seconds countdown. But in the beginning I the menu did not load when hitting escape. Then I change it to load default. But I can't change what should be loaded
[15:00] <AldarHawk> amorphous: does your router forward the port to the internal IP?
[15:00] <AldarHawk> you need to ensure that it is being sent to the correct place
[15:00] <lclimber> amorphous: check you router config
[15:00] <Jack_Sparrow> suncydu, did you run that program I linked ?
[15:00] <amorphous> AldarHawk, yes - its set to forward port 22 to 192.168.1.10 - the same address that i ssh into when local...
[15:01] <AldarHawk> you on a dynamic IP?
[15:01] <amorphous> hang on... i'll check it again...
[15:01] <suncydu> Jack_Sparrow. I have problem connecting to internet on tha computer that have the problem
[15:01] <amorphous> AldarHawk, no... static
[15:01] <spark_> suncydu, it will be better to reinstall your grub using a alternate cd, it's work when I had alike problem
[15:01] <AldarHawk> static external or internal?
[15:01] <genii> amenado: I am suspecting now that since the machine went off unexpectedly, there is likely a stale lock/pid file for some networking (possibly hald or NetworkManager) preventing startup of his ath0
[15:02] <suncydu> spark_ perhaps that is the solution... I will try
[15:02] <amenado> genii thats what i suspect too, hald related issue
[15:02] <danand> amorphous - have you checked your firewall is not blocking?
[15:02] <suncydu> spark_ do you think there is something to do with that I can't access the win disk from ubuntu
[15:03] <amorphous> danand, don't think i have one... :?
[15:04] <komputes> why is an EDID needed to boot into GDM?
[15:05] <amorphous> danand, no - no firewall, and nothing in /etc/hosts.allow or deny... :(
[15:05] <amenado> AldarHawk-> do you have a directory  /sys/class/net/ath0 ?
[15:06] <spark_> suncydu, I don't know, many things can do that situation but I think when you reinstall grub It will be ok, it is the best way
[15:06] <amenado> amorphous-> verify your firewall settings with  sudo iptables -t nat -vL  and see if you have any rules or DROP policies
[15:07] <danand> amorphous - your kernel has a firewall in built - so you definitely have one :). You probably need to open port 22 for ssh access. A gui tool like firestarter will help you to do that easily enough...
[15:08] <danand> amorphous - note that for security reasons all ports are closed by default
[15:08] <amorphous> and according to ssh -vvvv - it is speaking to the machine - it's checking for private key etc... but then just not going to password - although it says its going to check private key & password when accessing the machine...
[15:08] <amenado> danand nope its the opposite, no rulez and ACCEPT is default policy
[15:08] <jrib> danand: that's not true, all ports are open by default, but no services are runnig by default
[15:08] <Lamego> no ports are blocked, if he installed the ssh server, without doing any manual firewall changes, it shouln't be blocked
[15:08] <wookienz> i want to use vnc to remote into my ubuntu machine. i know it is supported wehn i log in but i want to be able to vnc to it before anyone has logged in. presently i have to log in and then i can vnc to it. i plant o have the machine in a cupboard with no keyboard amd mounse and thus if it gets powered off i will nee to plug thos eback in unless i can figure out a way to remote desktop it...
[15:08] <wookienz> ...before any has to log in. IDEAS?
[15:09] <amorphous> amenado, danand wouldn't that mean that i wouldn't be able to get in? I Can get in if i'm on the same network (192.168....)... trying iptables now... :)
[15:09] <Lamego> wobblywu, you can setup vnc server with a specific x session that is autostrated, don't ask me how :)
[15:09] <esox> how do one restart udev on gutsy ?
[15:09] <amenado> amorphous-> i gave you the command to easily verify the rules and policy..check em
[15:10] <troxor> wookienz: you can set up GDM to log you in automatically
[15:10] <kate_mins> hello , I need some help please, I would like to use wget to download certain type of files from website (i want just file .txt) does it possible to use wget for this porpose ?
[15:10] <AldarHawk> amenado: No I do not have a /sys/class/net/ath0
[15:10] <troxor> wookienz: or run a manual vncserver in screen or something
[15:10] <jrib> kate_mins: yes, read about the -A switch in 'man wget'
[15:10] <danand> amenado, jrib - ok
[15:10] <genii> esox: It has a script in /etc/init.d   so:  sudo /etc/init.d/udev restart
[15:10] <amenado> AldarHawk-> what directories you have then in /sys/class/net/  ?
[15:11] <wookienz> troxor: ok thanks ill look into it.
[15:11] <AldarHawk> eth0 and lo
[15:11] <amorphous> amenado, i did - there are no rules defined... sorry - a bit slow getting back...
[15:11] <Jack_Sparrow> kate_mins, wget http://media.ubuntu-nl.org/scripts/diskmounter.txt    something like that
[15:12] <vulcar> AldarHawk, I stepped away for a but, are you still having troubles with ndiswrapper and a wifi controller?
[15:12] <AldarHawk> yes I am vulcar
[15:12] <AldarHawk> I was away for a bit too
[15:12] <AldarHawk> :P
[15:12] <AldarHawk> in /sys/class/net/
[15:12] <amenado> AldarHawk-> that indicates that during boot, the kernel function to detect hw for your wireless has not detected your wireless device.. also confirm by your lshw -C xxx
[15:12] <kate_mins> jrib: i already looked at "man wget" but i cant understand... can you give me an example ?
[15:12] <AldarHawk> I am missing the ath0
[15:13] <Jack_Sparrow> kate_mins, do you have the url of the txt you want
[15:13] <AldarHawk> http://pastebin.com/d2ade81ea <-- lshw -C network
[15:13] <esox> genii: do you know a bit about writing udev rules ?
[15:13] <amenado> AldarHawk-> i dont know, if you have anything on the bios to activate it..go look around in the bios settings
[15:13] <hyw> I am just trying to REinstall ubuntu and I keep getting thigs, Display server shut down about 6 times in the last 90 seconds.
[15:13] <genii> esox: A bit, but far from an authority.
[15:13] <vulcar> AldarHawk: I was having trouble with it too since a recent reformat of my laptop. Upon boot up I have to run a series of commands to get my wifi to become available at the interface wlan0. I have to first start with the sudo modprobe ndiswrapper, then I have to run through a few other commands to get it up and running on my essid, you may want to try it as well if amenado hasn't already made you try them.
[15:14] <genii> esox: What are you trying to accomplish?
[15:14] <AldarHawk> I will play with the BIOS and see whats up
[15:14] <amenado> vulcar good suggestions
[15:14] <esox> genii: I need to assign a fixed /dev/input/event number to a joystick
[15:14] <kate_mins> Jack_Sparrow: i will try to explain myself better.. i have a website that's have alots of direct download links to txt/doc/pdf files (share for free) and i would like to use wget in order to download just the .txt files ? does it possible ?
[15:14] <vulcar> Aldar I can pastebin the commands i use to get the wlan0 interface up if you would like.
[15:15] <Jack_Sparrow> Kate_ yes
[15:15] <danand> esox - is that a usb joystick?
[15:15]  * AldarHawk will be back shortly after BIOS play
[15:15] <esox> danand: yes
[15:15] <Jack_Sparrow> kate_mins, Can you provide me a link to one file as an example to help me help you
[15:15] <vulcar> AldarHawk - when you get back : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60160/
[15:16] <danand> esox - take a look at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=168221
[15:16] <amorphous> danand, could you do me a favour (please)? - if you ssh -vvv marshcast@77.101.47.3 you'll see what i mean... it doesn't even ask for a password, but does if i'm local...
[15:17] <amorphous> danand, does that make sense to you?
[15:18] <esox> danand: and also, I have a midi gear that needs a script to have firmware loaded, wich means that now, if I plug it it doesnt start. I would like to have the script runned whe I plug it... its an usb device, but script needs roots privilege
[15:18] <janerik> Jack_Sparrow I got connected with internet on the pc with grub problem... can you tell me what to do again please
[15:18] <amenado> amorphous-> it prompts for password
[15:18] <kate_mins> Jack_Sparrow: for example http://www.textfiles.com/survival/ (let's assume that inside this website there was other types of documents (pdf,ppt,txt,doc....) and i would like to download just the .txt files without typing each document link ... (to give wget just the main html page.. and he will determine what files to download)
[15:18] <crshman> hi all, is it possible to change the chunk size on a linux software raid without losing the data?
[15:19] <danand> amorphous - i got to the password prompt too.
[15:19] <amorphous> amenado, it does..??!!?!? it doesn't for me :(
[15:19] <amenado> amorphous-> affirmative
[15:19] <backtracker> there's a command in which a stupid fish appear on your desktop swimming around, anyone know?
[15:19] <amenado> amorphous-> Permission denied, please try again.
[15:19] <amenado> marshcast@77.101.47.3's password:
[15:19] <amorphous> ok - thanks guys.... I'm not getting one from outside - does that mean it's the setup here in my laptop???
[15:19] <danand> amorphous - check the versions of ssh you are running on the client and server. some times that can be the root of the problem
[15:20] <Jack_Sparrow> kate_mins, that is a different question...
[15:20] <backtracker> Jack_Sparrow: there's a command in which a stupid fish appear on your desktop swimming around, anyone know?
[15:20] <genii> esox: If you know the vendor codes you could make a symlink like input/myjoystick        using the /etc/udev/rules.d/50-xserver-xorg-input-wacom.rules  as a guide
[15:20] <amorphous> danand, .... ok - that could well be about right... i'm running feisty & gutsy... i'll check. Thank you :)
[15:20] <kate_mins> Jack_Sparrow: sorry if i didn't explain myself better... can you help me ?
[15:21] <danand> amorphous - np ... now whats that password? :P

[15:21] <danand> kumarphilly - no Dan :)
[15:21] <amorphous> danand, ^^
[15:22] <AldarHawk> vulcar: I am not having luck because Ubuntu is not finding my card at all
[15:22] <isaacj87> hey guys...i just got done compiling QT4...the readme is telling me to use: su -c "make install" this is a little different than "sudo make install" could someone explain the "-c" to me?
[15:22] <AldarHawk> it is coming up UNCLAIMED
[15:22] <kumarphilly> ah ha...
[15:22] <Jack_Sparrow> backtracker, it isnt a command it is a compiz plugin/adon that you need to compile.. and my fish are not stupid :)
[15:22] <vulcar> Aldarhawk try doing this : ndiswrapper -l
[15:22] <danand> amorphous - :) come on ... give us a clue ...
[15:22] <vulcar> and post the results
[15:22] <amenado> kate_mins-> try the -A.txt  option to wget and see if that works
[15:22] <FFEMTcJ> What logs can I look at to determine why my system keeps restarting it's self?
[15:22] <AldarHawk> vulcar: it runs with no output
[15:23] <janerik> Jack_Sparrow Here is the pastebin of the Grub menu problem. Hope you have time to have a look http://paste.stgraber.org/1717
[15:23] <vulcar> k have you done a ndiswrapper -i <bcmwl5.inf [windows driver]>?
[15:24] <amenado> isaacj87-> -c  is execute the following command which is make install in your example
[15:24] <Jack_Sparrow> kate_mins, You need to do some homework.. that question is beyond the scope of our support....  with some scripting it can be done, with a one liner.. doubtful
[15:24] <isaacj87> amenado, so essentially it's the same as "sudo make install"
[15:24] <AldarHawk> vulcar: bcmwl5 driver already installed
[15:24] <kate_mins> Jack_Sparrow: ok :) thanks anyway...
[15:24] <esox> genii: ok
[15:24] <vulcar> try doing a remove of the driver and reinstalling the driver.
[15:24] <genii> FFEMTcJ: /var/log/messages   usually. Also the dmesg there can be useful it's something hardware
[15:25] <sarthor> Hi, my xp and ubuntuy dual boot was intalled, my xp got currupt, i reinstalled. boot loder got disapeared for my linux, i reinstalled ubuntu and now i am unable to see my xp, how to reinstall my boot loader, my computer have 2 hdd and each os on diffrent hdd.
[15:25] <amenado> isaacj87-> nope, you can su to someone's else account and execute that as that users id
[15:25] <kate_mins> Jack_Sparrow: want to be my teacher ?
[15:25] <Jack_Sparrow> janerik, you have xp pro on the second partition?
[15:25] <kate_mins> Jack_Sparrow: :)
[15:25] <Jack_Sparrow> kate_mins, sorry, kinda busy for that
[15:25] <kate_mins> Jack_Sparrow: its was a joke :)
[15:25] <janerik> Jack_Sparrow. The only thing I know that it worked fine a month ago:-)
[15:25] <amenado> kate_mins-> try the -A.txt  option to wget and see if that works <-- you tried yet?
[15:25] <AldarHawk> vulcar: when I do a  -r it says No such File in Directory
[15:25] <bullgard4> Synaptic says: "xdm is prompting for login name and password, authenticating the user, and running a session." Where can I find what xdm considers a 'session'?
[15:25] <AldarHawk> :S
[15:26] <kate_mins> Jack_Sparrow: i will try now..
[15:26] <AldarHawk> the thing that REALLY gets me is this was working up until 9:30 when my laptop battery died
[15:26] <Eagle-MaximoPC> #maximopc
[15:26] <vulcar> aldarhawk: just to be sure, the card is working properly right? could there be a possibility that the card may be defective if it is not being found by ndiswrapper?
[15:26] <Vlet> I've got postfix installed with tsl, and when I telnet in the handshake messages seem fine, but when I try to use it, it won't accept my password... Why? What logs might contain any relevent errors?
[15:27] <AldarHawk> vulcar: it was working until my laptop battery died as I stated
[15:27] <Jack_Sparrow> janerik, What is the exact problem...  please write it all on oneline
[15:27] <isaacj87> amenado, hmmm...i just tried running "su -c make install" and it gave me an authentication error
[15:27] <vulcar> AldarHawk - alright,  this is a laptop card - what type of card is it?
[15:27] <csh-harmful> Any ideas why ubuntu on SUN t2000 doesn't save partion table after adding new partition on first HDD ?
[15:27] <AldarHawk> Atheros Communications
[15:27] <AldarHawk> if you read the pastebin you would see that :P
[15:28] <amenado> isaacj87-> you may as well use  sudo instead of su,  as it requires root to install to certain dirs
[15:28] <FFEMTcJ> genii: This is from messages.. http://pastebin.be/9880 and this is dmseg where it looks like the restart happened.. http://pastebin.be/9881
[15:28] <vulcar> AldarHawk: try the following command "find / -name bcmwl5.inf"
[15:28] <janerik> Jack_Sparrow The problem is the grub menu loadss, whern it loads I cant choose options. Like if I want to boot on ubuntu or windows. The marker don't move when I hit th arrow keys. I do not know if it has the same problem, but when I try to access the win disk from ubuntu I get this error: hal-storage-fixed-mount-all-options refused uid 1000
[15:29] <AldarHawk> not there
[15:29] <vulcar> you will see quite a few permission denied but there should be some that list where the bcmwl5.inf file is located.
[15:29] <isaacj87> amenado, thanks for the info :)
[15:29] <kate_mins> Jack_Sparrow: its working fine :) thanks Jack ... by the way.. can i define 2 types of files ?
[15:29] <AldarHawk> no I have done the sudo hack to be root :P
[15:29] <AldarHawk> there is no bcmwl5 file
[15:30] <esox> genii: in this file, they uses SYSFS, whats about ATTRS ?
[15:30] <vulcar> hmm, and it says that it is currently installed.  what version of ndiswrapper utils do you have installed?
[15:30] <AldarHawk> 1.9
[15:30] <Jack_Sparrow> kate_mins, not sure...  I dont use it much
[15:31] <amenado> AldarHawk-> what do you have in /lib/firmware/`uname -r` ? pls paste in pastebin
[15:31] <Jack_Sparrow> janerik, interesting..  so the options are correct, it just wont let you chose any of them
[15:31] <vulcar> AldarHawk, you may want to try doing a remove on the ndiswrapper commons and utils and try a reinstall to see if it will clear the file to reload it through ndiswrapper.
[15:32] <backtracker> Jack_Sparrow: free the fish
[15:32] <backtracker> ;)
[15:32] <AldarHawk> 2.6.22-14-generic
[15:32] <AldarHawk> that is all in the firmware folder
[15:32] <ASTX813> "sudo mount -t hfsplus /dev/sdc2 /media/macdrive" all I get is "mount: not a directory"  Haven't had any luck on google or forums.  Anyone run into this?
[15:32] <Jack_Sparrow> backtracker, did you still want the link
[15:32] <omar_> hi guys
[15:32] <amenado> AldarHawk-> am looking for bunch of firmware files...
[15:32] <omar_> where can i find the .login file
[15:33] <Jack_Sparrow> backtracker, Sorry, but I am trying to troubleshoot a sound issue in alsa
[15:33] <janerik> Jack_Sparrow Yes that's correct. First the menu did not show when hitting escape, then I edited it to show menu as default. Now I cant move the marker. And I'm sure it's not the keyboard. All the keys work in f.eks bios. And the grub menu was fine a month ago
[15:33] <genii> esox: I imagine you could use any attribute that is unique to that device as a condition to making the symlink.
[15:33] <omar_> i wanted to set environment variable
[15:33] <amenado> AldarHawk-> thats an empty dir?
[15:33] <mamour_> What's a good program for talking to google talk clients?
[15:33] <AldarHawk> okay I will type out the diretory

[15:36] <genii> esox: I'm not sure about using a symlink of the same type the system would like to automatically assign. You'd be safer with something unique like myjoystick   or such

[15:37] <esox> amenado: yes they are ? you mean you could help me ? or you couldn't ? sorry my english has some limits...

[15:39] <Dragon2> How to install ubuntu from iso?
[15:40] <ArthurArchnix> FFEMTcJ: Are you sure it's not just activating the screensaver, then giving you the login prompt?
[15:40] <amenado> esox am saying am still learning the udev rules too, id like to learn it..but a bit difficult for me..
[15:40] <skillz> Dragon2:  you need to burn the ISO file onto a CD
[15:40] <skillz> and then boot from that
[15:40] <esox> amenado: yes they are...
[15:40] <FFEMTcJ> ArthurArchnix: all the programs I had open are gone
[15:40] <skillz> it should start to install automatilcy

[15:40] <ArthurArchnix> FFEMTcJ: can you suspend and resume, and hibernate and resume?
[15:41] <ArthurArchnix> FFEMTcJ: or do those cause restarts?

[15:41] <skillz> im runing compiz fusion, but when i do all the title bars of every window (the one that contains, the - square and X to close and expand) dissapear??

[15:41] <Dragon2> I have no drives
[15:41] <genii> esox: You could pick some number higher than what the system would assign then
[15:41] <ArthurArchnix> FFEMTcJ: well, try. Because my guess right now is that instead of suspending or hiberating (whatever your computer is setup to do) it reboots instead.

[15:43] <mamour_> skillz how can you possibly speak for everyone
[15:44] <skillz> it clearly says underneath that I DONT
[15:44] <Pici> skillz: calm down.
[15:44] <ArthurArchnix> FFEMTcJ: change your power settings to suspend after 1 minute. see if it works automatically, without your intervention. Then do the same with hibernate.

[15:46] <skillz> jrib: im not sure why it didnt work... it was working before then on reboot it ended up like this
[15:46] <mamour_> maybe the admins shouldn't be power hungry and abusive

[15:48] <vulcar> Anyone have a good walkthrough on how to tweak your nvidia graphics card?
[15:48] <Scunizi> I just got a new Logitech "wave" keyboard and had to choose the Logitech Access layout to get the space bar to work..although it's not 100%.  There's some lag with space bar key press and actual space being generated. Anyone with a clue as to how to set this up correctly on Ubuntu?
[15:49] <Pici> soundray, ArthurArchnix: I understand you both are trying to help, but we'd rather keep things non combatative and civil next time around.
[15:50] <soundray> Pici: the way to keep this channel civil IMO is not to tolerate people like mamour. But then, maybe that's why I'm not an op :)
[15:50] <FFEMTcJ> ArthurArchnix: is there even a need to try your suggestion if its currently set to never sleep?
[15:50] <janerik> Anyone can help me access win disk??? Can't mount it
[15:51] <Jack_Sparrow> janerik, are you in ubuntu on the same computer?
[15:51] <ArthurArchnix> FFEMTcJ: It's a long shot. But it wouldn't hurt. But no, I can't see why it would help troubleshoot if you're computer is set to never sleep or hibernate
[15:51] <soundray> janerik: have you followed the guide? What command are you using?
[15:51] <janerik> Jack_Sparrow Yes. And I think thats may be the same problem
[15:52] <broadcast> hi
[15:52] <Binky> Hello, can anyone help me set up my display drivers, i finally got two monitors working, using nvidea driver but now the screen is so massive it doesn't fit on the monitor no matter what resolution i set.
[15:52] <crshman> anyone know if the mailing lists on vger.kernel.org are down?
[15:52] <ArthurArchnix> FFEMTcJ: try posting full contents of /var/log/debug and /kern.log and /messages and /user
[15:52] <janerik> Jack_Sparrow not the same problem, but mabe thats because I can' access win in grub
[15:52] <FFEMTcJ> ArthurArchnix: thats what I thought.. http://pastebin.be/9882 is my whole dmesg.. maybe theres something in there somewhere else that i didnt post earlier
[15:53] <soundray> crshman: the web site seems to be down, so it's well possible. Give it a day.
[15:53] <erUSUL> crshman: i haven't receive my daily bunch of kernel mails that's for sure
[15:53] <fiXXXerMet> I think Ubuntu has a bug.  If I install a fresh 7.10 64bit server version, things work.  As soon as I apt-get upgrade (to the new kernel), I start getting "Bus error" all over the place.  What should I do?
[15:53] <ArthurArchnix> dmesg is probably not too helpful.... go to >system >preferences and  >system log and pastebin those logs i listed.
[15:53] <ArthurArchnix> FFEMTcJ: ^^

[15:59] <AldarHawk> FFEMTcJ: did you read the last line?
[16:00] <vulcar> AldarHawk, hmm, from your pastebin it doesn't seem that you have the firmware for that card on ubuntu, let me investigate momentarily.
[16:00] <soundray> !hi | Eagle-MaximoPC
[16:00] <ubotu> Eagle-MaximoPC: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!

[16:00] <mamour_> I just got done watching two hermaphrodites of the female persuasion from nz go at it
[16:00] <bartmon> Hi! I'm having problems when connecting to my phone via bluetooth. Sometimes I get the file list but sometimes it seems there's some sort of timeout. Are there any troubleshooting programs you recommend?
[16:00] <Eagle-MaximoPC> yes, what topic
[16:00] <FFEMTcJ> AldarHawk: it says no ipv6 routers present?
[16:01] <AldarHawk> are you attempting to run in IPv6?
[16:01] <AldarHawk> if so it will fail
[16:01] <vulcar> Aldarhawk: battery failure can cause issues with the filesystem. I have had my laptop battery die and it deleted files i was currently accessing.
[16:01] <AldarHawk> okay then...how do I fixy?
[16:01] <FFEMTcJ> I have no idea.. why would that only cause reboots every once in a while?

[16:02] <soundray> |Dreams|: I think kino should be able to do that
[16:02] <|Dreams|> kino.. thanks i will loook into it
[16:02] <FFEMTcJ> AldarHawk: and how would i change it?
[16:02] <soundray> |Dreams|: the other thing you could do is to use split (man split), but you'll end up with non-standard wmvs
[16:02] <Ashfire908> I got an error message when i booted the livecd (without the splash screen) and it said something about using the driver "8139too" because the driver "8139so" was not the correct one. how do i set it to  use the "8139too" drive?

[16:03] <AldarHawk> FFEMTcJ: ATM I am having major WiFi problems but if I get this fixed soon I will look into yours :)

[16:04] <ArthurArchnix> FFEMTcJ: in debug, line 370ish "Preparing system for mem sleep"
[16:04] <FFEMTcJ> ArthurArchnix: ok..

[16:04] <Eagle-MaximoPC> oh i see

[16:05] <Ashfire908> erUSUL: so it's normal to get that after the "Loading Please Wait..." message?

[16:06] <Macen> hihi
[16:06] <AldarHawk> bloody hell: command not found :P
[16:06] <Macen> i'm loading up ubuntu through vmware fusion for mac
[16:07] <janerik> Jack_Sparrow I may be doing it wrong, but I did not get it to work
[16:07] <AldarHawk> vulcar: you still kicking or did my question put you to sleepmode?
[16:07] <hyw> after editing something in /etc/x11  how do I save?
[16:07] <Macen> had no problems what so ever until i tried to access the apache web server running from the mac
[16:07]  * AldarHawk has a tendancy to code people into sleep 600
[16:07] <Macen> i can use the hosts internet connection etc
[16:07] <Macen> but i can't see the apache web server
[16:07] <AldarHawk> hyw: what editor?
[16:08] <Macen> which is strange because i can in the windows vmware
[16:08] <vulcar> AldarHawk, still kicking, just wandering how it to bring it back.
[16:08] <soundray> I can't use OpenGL programs properly. Second time I try, I get a hard freeze. I use the ati driver (fglrx seems to be not compatiple) and it's an integrated Rage 128 Pro Ultra TF
[16:08] <Ashfire908> erUSUL: it's just the kernel has been freezing and the screen showing garbage when i try to boot the cd sometimes
[16:08] <Jack_Sparrow> janerik, You must have serious issues on that drive
[16:08] <janerik> Jack_Sparrow: here is the error: Failed to mount '/dev/sda1': Invalid argument
[16:08] <FFEMTcJ> ArthurArchnix: ok.. any idea whats causing that?
[16:09] <Jack_Sparrow> janerik, is this what you typed into a term  sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sda1 /media/locked-drive -o force
[16:09] <vulcar> AldarHawk, do you have anything on the laptop that you desperatley need? you could try a reformat/repair installation of ubuntu and see if the firmware is back on there.
[16:09] <Jack_Sparrow> janerik, You should read the last entry on that page I linked.. it may help
[16:10] <AldarHawk> yes I do vulcar
[16:10] <AldarHawk> my book I am writing
[16:10] <ArthurArchnix> FFEMTcJ: March 19 at 11:42 everything goes sideways.
[16:11] <ArthurArchnix> FFEMTcJ: What kind of network cards you have?
[16:11] <vulcar> AldarHawk, alright, hmm let me query my friend about this issue to see if he can think of anything i am missing.
[16:11] <AldarHawk> okay thanks man
[16:11] <bartmon> My bluetooth connection with my ohine are timing out. Is there any tool to debug/troubleshoot bluetooth connections?
[16:11] <FFEMTcJ> ArthurArchnix: onboard.. on an Asus motherboard
[16:11] <AldarHawk> I am trying to get ahold of my guru but from australia but he is not responding.
[16:11] <vulcar> my guy is in denmark and may be asleep right now.
[16:12] <AldarHawk> as is mine...
[16:12] <AldarHawk> though he is normally up and drinking right now :P
[16:12] <janerik_> Jack_Sparrow Sorry got unconnected. Did you get the error message??
[16:12] <ArthurArchnix> FFEMTcJ: that's it? hmm... I don't know why, but there's some bad messages about MAC addressing in your bootup messages. Then there's network activity around the times when things go bad and a restart happens.
[16:13] <Jack_Sparrow> janerik_, I saw the error...
[16:13] <Jack_Sparrow> janerik, is this what you typed into a term  sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sda1 /media/locked-drive -o force
[16:13] <Jack_Sparrow> janerik, You should read the last entry on that page I linked.. it may help
[16:13] <ArthurArchnix> FFEMTcJ: Can you check your bios and see if your network card is using some powersaving features?

[16:14] <komputes> anyone know a way of listing all folders in the working directory and how many MB they contain?
[16:15] <soundray> sarthor: you need a boot entry for Windows in /boot/grub/menu.lst. There is a commented sample starting at line 13
[16:15] <jin> komputes: tehre is no option to add workspace.. I have compiz enabled by the way
[16:15] <soundray> komputes: man du
[16:15] <janerik_> Jack_Sparrow What can we read of that??? I can see the disk in konqueror, but its not mounted. Do you think that can be the reason why Grub is not working right?
[16:15] <sarthor> soundray, i have lost 3 of my hours on this, please can  you help me. i will paste that in pastebin
[16:16] <soundray> komputes: 'du -s *' would do it
[16:16] <soundray> sarthor: okay, paste the file and also the output of 'sudo fdisk -l' pls
[16:16] <FFEMTcJ> ArthurArchnix: I dont see anything about power saving for the network cards.. but "Suspend Mode" is on auto
[16:16] <sarthor> soundray, OK. 1 min
[16:16] <ArthurArchnix> FFEMTcJ: turn that off.
[16:16] <Jack_Sparrow> janerik_, If you can see it in Konq then you have a problem on your windows drive and you should see #WIndows for help, they may want you to fix the mbr just to point to windows, but that can be changed back later
[16:17] <FFEMTcJ> ok.. and power on by lan is enabled
[16:17] <ArthurArchnix> FFEMTcJ: turn that off too
[16:17] <ArthurArchnix> FFEMTcJ: disable... whatever your bios calls it.
[16:18] <FFEMTcJ> The suspend mode has Auto, S1 (POS) only and S3 only.. so I dont know that there is an off
[16:19] <ArthurArchnix> FFEMTcJ:  no S0?
[16:19] <FFEMTcJ> ArthurArchnix: i dont know what no SO means.. but those are the only three options for Suspend Mode
[16:20] <soundray> sarthor: how are you getting on?
[16:20] <vulcar> AldarHawk, I have my guy on chat, let me talk with him to see what could be going on.
[16:20] <AldarHawk> thank you vulcar
[16:20] <DrIP> hi all
[16:21] <sarthor> soundray, i am on the way.. pasted that.. but internet is much slow with me.. just a min more please
[16:21] <soundray> sarthor: okay. Don't forget to let me have the URL when you're ready :)
[16:21] <DrIP> i need a wireless expert who can help make my computer a gateway to my wireless network
[16:21] <sarthor> soundray, ok.
[16:22] <ashley> If I want to use the following netmask: 255.255.255.224, where does the IP need to start from?
[16:22] <antz123> Hi, I'm new to ubuntu. Just a quick question, if i get an external usb hard drive, (formatted as NTFS) would I be able to read and write files onto it using ubuntu okay?
[16:22] <ashley> 192.168.100.30 255.255.255.224
[16:22] <dark_Harmonics> antz123 yes
[16:22] <dark_Harmonics> it will work fine
[16:22] <AldarHawk> you cannot write to NTFS in Linux antz123
[16:22] <sarthor> soundray, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60166/
[16:23] <ArthurArchnix> FFEMTcJ: I've got to run... but I feel like you've got power problems. You're computer's bios or hard-ware is battling with the OS for control of the sleep resume... just my guess at this point.
[16:23] <dark_Harmonics> yes you can AldarHawk
[16:23] <dark_Harmonics> i do it here
[16:23] <dark_Harmonics> on this computer
[16:23] <AldarHawk> unless of course Microsux released their code
[16:23] <AldarHawk> hmm...
[16:23] <jetscreamer> antz123: yes just use ntfs-3g
[16:23] <dark_Harmonics> lol
[16:23] <AldarHawk> last I recalled you could not
[16:23] <ashley> You've been able to write to ntfs for a while
[16:23] <dark_Harmonics> ya ntfs03g is installed by default
[16:23] <FFEMTcJ> ok.. thanks ArthurArchnix
[16:23] <dark_Harmonics> in gutsy
[16:23] <jetscreamer> do not use the kernel's native ntfs driver to write with though
[16:23] <dark_Harmonics> or above
[16:23] <AldarHawk> good to know :P
[16:23] <AldarHawk> I have been using Debian 3.1 most of my time so... :P
[16:23] <dark_Harmonics> i dunno i use mine without errors
[16:23] <ArthurArchnix> FFEMTcJ: If you can get someone eles's attention, point them to about March 19 at 11:42...
[16:24] <jetscreamer> use ntfs-3g... reading is ok with it
[16:24] <jetscreamer> but not write
[16:24] <antz123> so I;m guessing then as soon as I plug in the external hard drive, ubuntu should detect it automatically so I can read and write files to it?
[16:24] <bartmon> jetscreamer: Writing works great as well.
[16:24] <jetscreamer> at least read
[16:24] <dark_Harmonics> if you will be using this with just the ubuntu computer it might be best to just give it the EXT3 formatting
[16:24] <dark_Harmonics> writing works perfectly for me but maybe you have contrary experience?
[16:24] <sarthor> soundray, you got the link? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60166/
[16:24] <antz123> I will be using the hard drive with ubuntu and vista
[16:24] <DrIP> any wirlreless skliled people?
[16:24] <AldarHawk> eww
[16:24] <patogen> Can you restart the cdrom in some way? I ran virtualbox and now I cannot use my cd-rom anymore
[16:24] <dark_Harmonics> i have had an issue with an external NTFS not mounting properly
[16:24] <AldarHawk> Vista
[16:25] <jetscreamer> are you two sure you're not using ntfs-3g to write?
[16:25] <patogen> k3b can't find it
[16:25] <dark_Harmonics> something about needing to force it to mount to reset some logs or something
[16:25] <patogen> mount cannot mount devices
[16:25] <patogen> eject cannot be used to eject CD's
[16:25] <dark_Harmonics> ntfs-3g is built into gutsy
[16:25] <jetscreamer> dark_Harmonics: that's when the ntfs volume is marked dirty
[16:25] <soundray> sarthor: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60167/  -- I have changed line 192 to reflect the fact that Windows is on your second hard disk. However, it's possible that Windows will refuse to boot if it's on the second. You may have to switch your cables around and make the second disk the first.
[16:25] <jetscreamer> you can use the map command in menu.lst sarthor
[16:25] <antz123> I will borrow a friends external hard disk and see what happens
[16:25] <jetscreamer> no need to move cables
[16:26] <dark_Harmonics> jetscreamer: ok i have had that issue before i just dont know the techie reason why
[16:26] <FFEMTcJ> AldarHawk: let me know when you have fixed your wireless stuff..
[16:26] <AldarHawk> I will...
[16:26] <dark_Harmonics> antz123 it seems to work fine for me
[16:26] <FFEMTcJ> ty
[16:26] <AldarHawk> vulcar is still looking into it
[16:26] <AldarHawk> :S
[16:26] <antz123> ok thanks
[16:26] <soundray> jetscreamer: could you please edit the pastebin accordingly, for my benefit as well as sarthor's?
[16:27] <sarthor> jetscreamer, Yes that will be better
[16:27] <vulcar> AldarHawk, He says try removing the module, reboot and add the module back in. also before rebooting uninstall ndiswrapper-common and ndiswrapper-utils reboot and reinstall those then install the driver again.
[16:28] <leipepo> hello
[16:28] <jetscreamer> sarthor: http://linux.hfds.com/files/menu.lst
[16:28] <AldarHawk> which command do I use to remove said module?
[16:29] <jetscreamer> sarthor:
[16:29] <jin> what tool do you install to get more compiz configurations?
[16:29] <jetscreamer> map (hd0) (hd1)
[16:29] <jetscreamer> map (hd1) (hd0)
[16:29] <sarthor> jetscreamer, yes
[16:29] <leipepo> i need to add a partition to ubuntu gutsy server, anybody got exerince with it?
[16:29] <pochi_> en castellano tampoco no?
[16:29] <leipepo> experince*
[16:29] <jetscreamer> leipepo: cfdisk /dev/whatever if you have freespace
[16:30] <AldarHawk> vulcar: which command do I use to remove said module?
[16:30] <jetscreamer> rmmod
[16:30] <jetscreamer> maybe
[16:30] <vulcar> I am looking into that, i am not too knowledgable on removing modules but he said the command is rmmod <module name> but I would query someone with more knowledge on removing modules in IRC [I would ask him but he is intermittent in responses,  afk fixing dinner
[16:30] <AldarHawk> and the mod name?
[16:30] <jetscreamer> !info modconf
[16:30] <leipepo> also know how i can format that as ntfs?
[16:30] <ubotu> modconf (source: modconf): Device Driver Configuration. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.3.3ubuntu1 (gutsy), package size 1242 kB, installed size 4128 kB

[16:31] <jin> what tool do you install to get more compiz configurations?
[16:31] <soundray> !ccsm | jin

[16:31] <jetscreamer> leipepo: probably install ntfsprogs and mkfs.ntfs /dev/whatever ... but i've never made ntfs with linux so ymmv
[16:32] <pochi_> can some one help me reconfigureing time zones in ubuntu 6.06?
[16:32] <gpb> anyone good with lvm's in here?
[16:32] <soundray> pochi_: what do you want to do?
[16:32] <jetscreamer> dpkg-reconfigure tzconfig maybe
[16:32] <soldats> pochi_: what time zone
[16:32] <pochi_> it does not work
[16:32] <AldarHawk> anyone know which module my card would use?  hard to remove if it is not there
[16:33] <soldats> pochi_: "tzselect" in terminal
[16:33] <pochi_> the problem is when I reconfigure the zone and restart the server
[16:33] <sarthor> soundray, that change in 192 did not working.. and i want to fix this without changing cables
[16:33] <unimatrix9> hi there
[16:33] <soundray> sarthor: so follow jetscreamer's advice
[16:33] <soldats> pochi_: does it keep reverting back to a wrong time zone
[16:33] <jetscreamer> sarthor: map.. man menu.lst
[16:33] <pochi_> yes!
[16:33] <sarthor> soundray, ok.
[16:34] <jetscreamer> actually
[16:34] <pochi_> thats correct
[16:34] <unimatrix9> i accidently removed the top gnome panel, is there an way to  get the original ubuntu top gnome panel back?
[16:34] <soldats> pochi_: you can set the time zone in you .profile file
[16:34] <jetscreamer> apt-get install grub-doc && info grub rather
[16:34] <pochi_> soldats, but there si no other way to do it?
[16:34] <pochi_> tzconfig?
[16:34] <soldats> pochi_: what time zone
[16:34] <soundray> sarthor: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60168/
[16:35] <pochi_> soldats: for example from south georgia to buenos aires/argentina
[16:35] <sarthor> soundray, what line yiou changed in the last link?
[16:35] <pochi_> soldats:_allways talking about ubuntu 6.06
[16:35] <jetscreamer> he added the map directives
[16:36] <wirrwarr> heya~
[16:36] <jetscreamer> afaict
[16:36] <sarthor> ok. i got
[16:36] <jetscreamer> oh
[16:36] <soldats> pochi_: well do you want to have the same time zone always being used
[16:36] <soundray> sarthor: 193, 194
[16:36] <jetscreamer> you don't want to do that in the debian automagic section
[16:36] <soundray> sarthor: next time look first, then ask
[16:36] <sarthor> soundray, shud i have to rechange hd1 to hd0, ? the old one
[16:36] <jetscreamer> it will be overwritten
[16:36] <sarthor> soundray, Ok. i will do as you said brother
[16:36] <geofffffff> Quick question. I'm trying to set up Gutsy as a drbl server. Got 2 nics in the machine, but it seems that the drbl installer needs them both to have IP addresses at install time. How do I do that?
[16:37] <pochi_> soldats: yes, I want to configure the timezone and, after restart server, mantain that configuration
[16:37] <jetscreamer> not positive where you would put it... kopts?
[16:37] <soundray> jetscreamer: it's not inside, it's just the comment that confuses
[16:37] <jetscreamer> oh ok
[16:37] <jetscreamer> i didn't look hard
[16:37] <[chr0n0s]> sometimes when i try to play some music/movie, there is no sound output, i think that is because some application accessing sound device, so how to i restart the sound system, or something like that so that my resources are freed
[16:37] <soldats> pochi_: ok thats an easy fix, what time zone do youlive in currently
[16:37] <vignesh> how do i install gtk+ ??
[16:37] <pochi_> buenos aires/argentina
[16:37] <quickbrownfox> if i set up my computer to dual boot with two operating systems and I want to delete the other system now and keep ubuntu , is there any way to do that withouth loosing my ubuntu settings and files
[16:37] <soldats> [chr0n0s]: i think you have to modprobe alsa
[16:38] <soldats> pochi_: ok one second please
[16:38] <DG19075> unimatrix9: try this:
[16:38] <DG19075> I haven't tried this, but your settings for the panel are stored in
[16:38] <DG19075> ~/.gconf/apps/panel
[16:38] <DG19075> You could probably just delete that directory, then logout/login and
[16:38] <DG19075> you'd be back to the system defaults.
[16:38] <DG19075> Of course you'd probably want to make a backup first, or test it out
[16:38] <FloodBot2> DG19075: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[16:38] <DG19075> on a different account.
[16:39] <vignesh> how do i install gtk+ ??
[16:39] <linunut> vignesh: Open up synaptices, search for gtk, install.
[16:39] <AldarHawk> open the manager
[16:39] <vignesh> there isn't gtk+ over there..
[16:39] <soundray> pochi_: use 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure tzdata' to set your timezone
[16:40] <linunut> vignesh: It's probably not CALLED gtk+. You probably want gtk2 or something like that. Although I'm pretty sure on a standard install gtk in installed by default.
[16:40] <soldats> pochi_: add this line to  ~/.profile  at the end "TZ='America/Argentina/Buenos_Aires'; export TZ"
[16:40] <pochi_> soundray:_ yes I did that, but I am using ubuntu 6.06 server
[16:40] <vignesh> linunut, okie.. ty..
[16:40] <soldats> pochi_: then restart X
[16:40] <AldarHawk> if you are doing a lot in the shell you should 'sudo su -' this helps you not have to type in sudo all the time :)
[16:40] <linunut> vignesh: Yep.
[16:40] <soundray> pochi_: I think then it's 'sudo tzconfig'
[16:40] <[chr0n0s]> soldats, nope. it says Module alsa not found
[16:41] <soldats> soundray: tzselect
[16:41] <pochi_> soundray: may be I am wrong but I did not found any tzdata in ubuntu 6.06
[16:41] <[chr0n0s]> soldats, i tried restarting alsa-utils in init.d, doesn't work either
[16:42] <pochi_> soldats:_ what about root profile? same thing whit it?
[16:42] <soldats> [chr0n0s]: hrmm well not sure, best bet is a restart
[16:42] <pochi_> soldats: I am not using X
[16:42] <soldats> pochi_: no just your user profile
[16:42] <AldarHawk> vulcar: any luck?  still not working
[16:42] <AldarHawk> :@
[16:42] <wizo> hey, how do i find out the permissions of a folder from the terminal in numerical format
[16:42] <[chr0n0s]> soldats, restart works, but i don't want to restart :S
[16:42] <sarthor> soundray, i change like jetscreamer said, but no success..
[16:42] <soldats> pochi_: ok well then after you add the line log out than back in
[16:42] <pochi_> soldats:_it is a server, ubuntu 6.06 server
[16:43] <wizo> ls -al shows the permissions in the wrx-etc-etc format
[16:43] <soldats> wizo: ls -larsh
[16:43] <vulcar> AldarHawk, did rmmod <module name>  then modprobe miod name
[16:43] <soldats> wizo: oh wait oops
[16:43] <soundray> pochi_: in dapper, you should set the timezone permanently with 'sudo tzconfig' (soldats)
[16:43] <AldarHawk> what is the module name?  I do not know it
[16:43] <geoffff> I think I figured out part of my problem...both nics were set to roaming mode
[16:44] <soldats> soundray: ahh ok i set in in ~/.profile using tzselect to find the correct one
[16:44] <geoffff> Now eth2 is pulling an ipv4 address, and eth1 has an ipv6
[16:44] <geoffff> How can I force eth1 to use ipv4?
[16:44] <soundray> soldats: that doesn't achieve a system-wide change
[16:45] <soldats> i only have one user, (me) but ill keep that in mind thanks
[16:46] <pochi_> soundray: I am loged as root, wy I must sudo tzconfig?
[16:46] <Jack_Sparrow> pochi_, Did you set a root password?
[16:47] <pochi_> soundray: I did that  tzconfgi
[16:47] <jrib> wizo: you can use stat
[16:47] <pochi_> but when I restart de server it does not keap the zone
[16:48] <pochi_> Jack_Sparrow: yes. I did that
[16:48] <Jack_Sparrow> pochi_, Just asking as it is something we try to avoid
[16:48] <pochi_> the problem is when I restart the server, it does not keap the new zone
[16:49] <soundray> pochi_: tzconfig should update /etc/timezone.  If it doesn't, then /etc/timezone is overwritten by some boot process.
[16:49] <soundray> *doesn't work after reboot
[16:50] <pochi_> sondray: yes, tzconfig updates these two files, this ubuntu 6.06 is freshly instaled
[16:51] <wizo> jrib: stat?
[16:51] <sarthor> soundray, i can see that you are busy? should i wait here?
[16:51] <jrib> wizo: yes, it's a command
[16:52] <soundray> sarthor: ask the channel, then everyone will see it
[16:52] <lufis> Is there some way to get all of the restricted codec packages in one place and install them on a computer with no internet access?
[16:53] <DrIP> brb-restart
[16:53] <Jack_Sparrow> !aptoncd | lufis
[16:53] <ubotu> lufis: 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
[16:53] <Christoz> hello room!!!
[16:54] <vulcar> AldarHawk, i had to walk away are you still having troubles
[16:54] <soldats> pochi_: open your file called "/etc/timezone" and see if the correct time zone is there. it should be "America/Argentina/Buenos_Aires"
[16:54] <Christoz> I have a little problem with the firestarter app ...you know ,the iptables manager...
[16:54] <lufis> Jack_Sparrow: thanks
[16:54] <Jack_Sparrow> np hope it helps
[16:54] <sarthor> I need help, my xp got disapeared after installing ubuntu, its my fdisk -l and also menu.lst here http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60166/
[16:55] <Christoz> ...but i'm not sure if it's a real problem or the way this app works
[16:55] <lufis> Also, the problem has since been solved, but what should I do if I change my screen resolution and xorg henceforth is broken? In hardy, xorg pretty much ignores xorg.conf, so sudo dpkg-reconfigure doesn't work anymore. What to do, besides completely reinstalling?
[16:55] <soundray> sarthor: what happens when you select the Windows option from the grub menu?
[16:55] <pochi_> soldats: that is correct tzconfig do that, the problem is when I restart the server.  It is a new server, with nothing instaled but a standard instalation
[16:55] <mogli> hi, i need the tool "convert" in the command line, how can i find out which package i need to install ?
[16:55] <Jack_Sparrow> sarthor, Did you add a drive in order to install ubuntu
[16:55] <yakman_> my ${java_home} variable needs changing, whats the name of conf file or something for it?
[16:56] <jrib> mogli: imagemagick
[16:56] <soldats> pochi_: well something is wrong im not sure of then
[16:56] <mogli> jrib: thx !!
[16:56] <sarthor> soundray, i dont remember, Sorry brother, i will check again. but the xp did not start.. and there was errro..
[16:56] <pochi_> soldats: thank you ver much any way
[16:56] <sarthor> Jack_Sparrow, No.. did not added any drive
[16:57] <yakman_> whats the conf file or something like that for changing ${java_home} environmental var
[16:57] <Christoz> While it's running the system tray icon dissapears ...i've checked the process board and saw that was truly terminated ..

[16:58] <suraj> How do i connect to internet through other computer in the same network?
[16:58] <sarthor> Jack_Sparrow, i did like this also http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60167/
[16:59] <sarthor> Jack_Sparrow, but there was no success
[16:59] <eeeeeeeeeeeeeeee> ola
[16:59] <Christoz> While it's running the system tray icon dissapears ...i've checked the process board and saw that was truly terminated ...
[16:59] <soundray> sarthor: you haven't used the map option as suggested by jetscreamer -- why?!
[16:59] <eeeeeeeeeeeeeeee> in is Spain
[16:59]  * AldarHawk is getting angry with his lack of WiFi capabilities...and cannot reformat because I have my book on it :(
[16:59] <eeeeeeeeeeeeeeee> please
[16:59] <sarthor> soundray, i used that also.
[17:00] <sarthor> soundray, Jack_Sparrow i used this also http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60168/
[17:01] <Jack_Sparrow> sarthor, I am a bit confused.. Where is your windows install supposed to be.. on a logical in extended partition on the second drive?
[17:01] <ubuntuu> Hello. The only sound working for me is the systembeeps. What should I do?
[17:01] <soundray> Jack_Sparrow: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60166/ has sarthor's fdisk -l output
[17:01] <sarthor> Jack_Sparrow, how to check that now?? that where the windows is installed??
[17:02] <Jack_Sparrow> sarthor, sdb5 6 and 7 look more like data storage and the windows install is not there.
[17:02] <Jack_Sparrow> sarthor, did you have three windows partitons for data when you had windows
[17:03] <Jack_Sparrow> sarthor, other that drive C that is
[17:03] <vulcar> AldarHawk, you present - did the rmmod and modprobe for ndiswrapper work?
[17:03] <sarthor> Jack_Sparrow, when i installed windows.. that was on drive D, but how to check on linux that wat was D?
[17:03] <Christoz> is this a bug or the process managers terminating it ...for the name of usage memory
[17:03] <AldarHawk> I do not know the module name vulcar
[17:03] <AldarHawk> so I cannot do a rmmod
[17:03] <vulcar> AldarHawk, rmmod ndiswrapper
[17:04] <sarthor> Jack_Sparrow, really i dont remember that how many drives have ntfs partition.
[17:04] <Jack_Sparrow> sarthor, do you have three mounted ntfs drives on your desktop now?
[17:04] <AldarHawk> Module ndiswrapper does not exist in /proc/modules/
[17:04] <vulcar> k now type ndiswrapper -v
[17:04] <sarthor> Jack_Sparrow, I am lost? i can do give you inforamtion my the command you tell me apply.
[17:06] <soundray> sarthor: is your ubuntu a fresh installation?
[17:06] <Jack_Sparrow> sarthor, Are you in ubuntu
[17:06] <amenado> AldarHawk-> you do have an ethernet port on your laptop right?
[17:06] <AldarHawk> vulcar: http://pastebin.com/d7b6c5abf
[17:06] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray, I am thinkink he should   sudo mkdir /media/ntfs-1    then    sudo mount /dev/sdb5 /media/ntfs-1
[17:06] <AldarHawk> yes but none where I am :P
[17:06] <AldarHawk> thus the WiFi
[17:07] <sarthor> Jack_Sparrow, i am in ubuntu, soundray no i have installed before
[17:07] <soundray> Jack_Sparrow: that's not going to help boot Windows -- is it?
[17:07] <amenado> AldarHawk-> then go to where you'd be able to access ethernet ...
[17:07] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray, sudo mkdir /media/ntfs-1    then    sudo mount /dev/sdb5 /media/ntfs-1
[17:07] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray, it will help us to know if he erased his windows os.. which is what I think he did
[17:08] <vulcar> AldarHawk, k, i think this command is right - correct me if i am wrong - sudo apt-get uninstall ndiswrapper
[17:08] <ubuntuu> I have a Dell Inspiron 6000 and my sound is acting strange. I only get the "somethings-wrong" beeps through speakers/headphones. When I try to watch movies or play music I get nothing. What should I do?
[17:08] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray, he has three ntfs...  I say we should mount all three and look for a windows install..
[17:08] <AldarHawk> I do not want to start over on my system is the base of my argument
[17:08] <ttt--> is it normal for kpdf to be very slow? (taking 10seconds to load the next page)

[17:08] <AldarHawk> I am wanting this fixed without having to rebuild the machine
[17:09] <steph__> i everybody. If I have a alpha 4 image, wich I have installed, then upgraded, will it be the same as alpha 6?
[17:09] <steph__> *Hi
[17:09] <vulcar> AldarHawk, you dont have to rebuild the machine, you can remove the ndiswrapper then reinstall the ndiswrapper and it may work, thats why my guru is saying.
[17:09] <AldarHawk> I did that already
[17:09] <AldarHawk> not working

[17:10] <amenado> AldarHawk-> can you paste that again about unclaimed...i have erased my buffer since
[17:11] <AldarHawk> http://pastebin.com/d2ade81ea
[17:11] <Ashfire908> i followed the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDPersistence but it doesn't to have appeared to booted with persistent correctly
[17:11] <soundray> Jack_Sparrow: what's /dev/sdb1 then?
[17:11] <mols> Hello. Need help with install Atheros AR5006EG WiFi. There are one problem, I not see it with lspci. In Windows it works. Any ideas? Sorry for bad English.
[17:11] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray, an extended partition for his logicals
[17:11] <amenado> AldarHawk-> where is wireless? #
[17:11] <amenado> *-network:1 UNCLAIMED
[17:11] <amenado> #
[17:11] <amenado>         description: Ethernet Controller  <-- shows ethernet clearly
[17:12] <soundray> Jack_Sparrow: of course, sorry...
[17:12] <test-3R> ez :)
[17:12] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray, sdb1 is a small linux partition everything else is in logicals
[17:12] <vulcar> AldarHawk, after reinstalling did you "modprobe ndiswrapper"
[17:12] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[17:12] <AldarHawk> vulcar: yes i did
[17:12] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray, so you can see why I find it odd that his windows os would be in there and that those are not just data
[17:12] <amenado> vulcar look at what he claimed  UNCLAIMED its not wireless.its ethernet..
[17:12] <AldarHawk> amenado: yes it is an Ethernet Conroller...WiFi is Eathernet
[17:13] <soundray> Jack_Sparrow: most of this setup is odd. But it is worth mounting those NTFSs as you suggested
[17:13] <AldarHawk> lmao amenado read the entire thing
[17:13] <ubuntuu> I have a Dell Inspiron 6000 and my sound is acting strange. I only get the "somethings-wrong" beeps through speakers/headphones. When I try to watch movies or play music I get no sound. What should I do?
[17:13] <amenado> AldarHawk-> my fault, i did not see the 802.11g
[17:13] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray, sudo mkdir /media/ntfs-2    then    sudo mount /dev/sdb6 /media/ntfs-2
[17:13] <AldarHawk> I have had this working up until my battery died
[17:13] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray, sudo mkdir /media/ntfs-3    then    sudo mount /dev/sdb7 /media/ntfs-3
[17:13] <AldarHawk> laptop battery
[17:14] <soundray> sarthor: please go ahead as Jack_Sparrow suggests in his two lines to me ^^
[17:14] <Ashfire908> how do i set up a persistent livecd?
[17:14] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray, Do you understand what I am thinking?
[17:14] <sarthor> soundray, i am lookgin to that,, but not getting well
[17:14] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray, telapthay "ON"
[17:14]  * nickrud freezes in place with extreme head pain
[17:15] <soundray> Jack_Sparrow: I'm still not sure I know which one might be the overwritten partition
[17:15] <soundray> sarthor: what's the problem?
[17:15] <ritalin> ubuntu for president in 08!
[17:15] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray, sdax gone
[17:16] <sarthor> i did this. sudo mkdir /media/ntfs-3    and    sudo mount /dev/sdb7 /media/ntfs-3
[17:16] <soundray> sarthor: now do a 'ls /media/ntfs-3/' and tell us how much output you get

[17:17] <ubuntuu> How do I install my soundcard?
[17:17] <gera> Hi
[17:17] <Ashfire908> DGJ: i followed it.
[17:17] <ubuntuu> =(
[17:18] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray, my guess is that he installed ub on sda, with a /home partition and a swap in extended..  and erased exerything else
[17:18] <AldarHawk> vulcar: you chatting with you pal on MSN/AIM?
[17:18] <Ashfire908> DGJ: it doesn't seem to be working.
[17:18] <vulcar> AldarHawk, skype.
[17:18] <sarthor> soundray, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60169/
[17:18] <vulcar> AldarHawk, i fed him all your pastebin's to see what he can come up with but he is in denmark and its night where he is.
[17:19] <DGJ> Ashfire908, i've not used it, all i'd seen was ubotu's suggestion, sorry I can't help anymore with that
[17:19] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray, thouse should be on his desktop.. so he could open in nautilus and look for directory of program files etc
[17:19] <soundray> sarthor: that looks like Windows data. Keep looking for your system partition
[17:19] <AldarHawk> vulcar: check your Private messages
[17:19] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray, documents and settings would also be a clue
[17:19] <AldarHawk> I hope it went through
[17:19] <sarthor> soundray, Yes that windows data, but i can already browse it in ubutnu.. windxp installed is the only partition that i can not browse in my ubuntu
[17:20] <soundray> sarthor: which partition is that?
[17:20] <sarthor> soundray, in that image you can see that
[17:20] <GeorgeA> I just updated pidgin, but for some reason in help-about it still shows that it's the old version!
[17:20] <sarthor> soundray, you saw that image??
[17:20] <soundray> sarthor: what image? Your ls pastebin?
[17:20] <sarthor> http://www.4shared.com/file/41280707/9554eed7/Screenshot.html?
[17:20] <Ashfire908> could someone help me with making a persistent livecd? (I followed the help page it didn't/doesn't work)
[17:20] <vulcar> AldarHawk, new to xchat - where do i check those?
[17:21] <sarthor> i think that is /dev/sdb5
[17:21] <AldarHawk> most likely did not pop up
[17:21] <AldarHawk> you have MSN or AIM?
[17:21] <Jack_Sparrow> Ashfire908, you dont make a persistent livecd..   the usb stick makes it persistent
[17:21] <Ashfire908> Jack_Sparrow: that's what i meant
[17:21] <Jack_Sparrow> Ashfire908, see pendrivelinux
[17:22] <vulcar> AldarHawk, does pigidin work with msn
[17:22] <AldarHawk> no clue...Trillian does though :P
[17:22] <AldarHawk> as does GAIM
[17:22] <soundray> sarthor: do a 'sudo apt-get install ntfsprogs'
[17:22] <MasterShrek> vulcar it does
[17:23] <soundray> sarthor: and try 'sudo ntfsfix /dev/sdb5'
[17:23] <MasterShrek> soundray why not have him use ntfs-3g?
[17:23] <terminal> hiIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
[17:23] <Jack_Sparrow> AldarHawk, gaim had to be renamed to pidgin..  aol complained
[17:23] <Intrepd> yes i've used MSN w/ Pidgin
[17:23] <Intrepd> Gaim -> Pidgin now i think
[17:23] <soundray> MasterShrek: how is that going to help boot Windows?
[17:23] <vulcar> AldarHawk, I am on msn now.
[17:23] <MasterShrek> soundray sorry, i just kinda jumped in, i saw that you were trying to mount ntfs partitions
[17:24] <sarthor> soundray, i can browse that partition now. what i have to do now??
[17:24] <Jack_Sparrow> MasterShrek, we are trying to find his windows install or verify that it is lost
[17:24] <terminal>  ./steam   i get error Failed to connect to any GeneralDirectoryServer
[17:24] <MasterShrek> oh ic :)
[17:24] <sarthor> soundray, i can see windows in installed form there
[17:24] <AldarHawk> falrish@sympatico.ca
[17:25] <MasterShrek> terminal are you trying to use steam, the game program? its only for windows, you have to use wine
[17:25] <MasterShrek> !wine | terminal
[17:25] <ubotu> terminal: 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.
[17:25] <soundray> sarthor: okay, now that we have found your Windows installation, use the menu.lst in http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60168/ but change line 192 to read root (hd1,4)
[17:26] <soundray> sarthor: then try a reboot
[17:26] <ljlolel> hi, i remember seeing this once:  how do I program where windows are positioned when I open them?
[17:26] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray, well done
[17:26] <terminal> mastershrek; i hav already install wine
[17:26] <soundray> Jack_Sparrow: thanks, wouldn't have had a clue without your help re. that extended partition :)
[17:27] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray, still a very odd place for it to be if he installed windows first
[17:27] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray, teamwork
[17:27] <cottima> hello, I keep having trouble with my keyboard. I still have window control like alt-tab, but in some programs it has problems while at the same time it works in others.  the weird thing is that is it alternates between programs, so it may the same programs but at different times as different programs.
[17:27] <MasterShrek> terminal navigate to the steam installation directory and run: wine Steam.exe
[17:27] <cottima> it is just random.  I do not think it is scim.
[17:28] <corinne_> Hey everyone, how's things
[17:30] <sarthor> soundray, Jack_Sparrow i am back, and its not done.. there error there is "invalid device you requested, press any key to continue, " with press key.. i am back to the selecting place

[17:30] <sisif> Hello guys. Can somebody please recomend me a good tool for converting flac to ogg / mp3 ?
[17:31] <corinne_> Is anyone able to help out?
[17:31] <sarthor> soundray, the line is looking like "root            (hd1,4)"
[17:31] <soundray> sarthor: that means that (hd1,4) is not your /dev/sdb5 -- strange, but there's a lot that's strange with your system...
[17:31] <soundray> sisif: oggenc should read flac
[17:32] <sarthor> soundray, yes.. i admitt this.. right now i am also totally confuesd and lost.
[17:32] <Jack_Sparrow> sarthor, was there a link to the file list on that drive
[17:32] <sisif> soundray : preferably a nice GUI tool. I`m not that founded with command line
[17:32] <noodlesgc> hey i have a problem with Nicotine+, it tells me at the bottom that it is connecting, but it just sits for hours
[17:33] <soundray> sisif: oggenc is incredibly easy to use. Use 'man oggenc' and have a go
[17:33] <alanbshepard70> I need help, my computer is affected by this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cdrkit/+bug/15424 where every time I try to burn a CD or DVD it fails. I really need a way to burn 25 gigs worth of data to DVD. Is there a package other than what's included with ubuntu that will allow me to successfully burn a DVD and do a byte by byte verify?

[17:36] <Sgeo> WHen I connect it, I see it in Nautilus
[17:37] <sarthor> Jack_Sparrow, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60172/
[17:37] <Sgeo> But I get:
[17:37] <corinne_> Thanks ubotu, I

[17:37] <corinne_> ...wait, that's a bot.  but it already works, it's just slow...
[17:38] <noodlesgc> Sgeo try the moto4lin package
[17:38] <Sgeo> Tried it, no success
[17:38] <Jack_Sparrow> sarthor, what drive is media/xp   tied to?
[17:38] <hischild> Good afternoon. Out of nowhere my video's refuse to play when i'm using compiz, but when i switch to metacity they work fine. Is this a known bug and if so, is there a workaround?

[17:39] <sarthor> Jack_Sparrow, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60177/ xp tied to
[17:40] <soundray> Jack_Sparrow: grub must be counting the partitions differently in that weird layout
[17:40] <Sgeo> Also, why am I not even able to access stuff when it's in "Mass Storage" mode?
[17:40] <davi1> hello, ubuntu takes 10 miutes to boot. how do i disable the checkdisk option when booting?
[17:40] <subzeroHusky> what do you recomend for loging in to a windows system
[17:41] <Jack_Sparrow> Sgeo, http://onlyubuntu.blogspot.com/2007/08/how-to-connect-motorola-v3x-to-ubuntu.html              note device vendor numbers are critical to getting that to work.. and I cant help with those
[17:41] <dep> davil: sudo tune2fs -c 0 -i 0
[17:41] <soundray> sarthor: can you run 'sudo grub', then enter 'geometry (hd1)' and pastebin the output pls
[17:41] <Sgeo> Jack_Sparrow, should it be in a certain USB mode?
[17:41] <dep> davil: however, this is highly dangerous to do, disk checks occur for a good reason
[17:41] <danand> davi1 - does your system perform a check of the disks _every_ time you boot?
[17:42] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray, look at his fstab..  sudo apt-get install pastebinit  && cat /etc/fstab | pastebinit (Provide Pastebin link in channel)
[17:42] <vulcar> umm when did ffmpeg become unauthorized package for ubuntu 7.10?
[17:42] <Sgeo> I probably should reenable disk checks at some point
[17:42] <MasterShrek> vulcar its not unauthorized, its in universe
[17:43] <sarthor> Jack_Sparrow, soundray http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60179/
[17:43] <MasterShrek> vulcar there is a better version in the medibuntu repo though
[17:43] <vulcar> I am getting a prompt saying it is unauthorized.
[17:43] <subzeroHusky> what do you recomend for loging in to a windows system
[17:44] <MasterShrek> subzeroHusky remotely?
[17:44] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray, 4,5 6 not 5,6,7 ?
[17:44] <Belboz91> hey all, any bash scripters in here?
[17:44] <soundray> Jack_Sparrow: that's grub starting to count at 0
[17:44] <Jack_Sparrow> Belboz91, Wrong channel.. try #Bash
[17:45] <MasterShrek> Belboz99 #bash may show better luck
[17:45] <Belboz91> thanks

[17:45] <hhlp> stinger05, dpkg -i *.deb
[17:46] <danand> davi1 - i would set the number of mounts between your disks being checked to a sensible value - sudo tune2fs -c 30 -i 30 ....
[17:46] <corinne_> k, I figured it out
[17:46] <sahak> Hello

[17:47] <Sgeo> It didn't work
[17:47] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray, that is one messed up partition table..  I am missing the small linux partition that should have been sdb1

[17:47] <Jezz> hi
[17:47] <dep> stinger05: if there is a driver available for it, it likely is in use or available from the Restricted Driver Manager utility under System -> Administrator -> Restricted Driver Manager
[17:47] <sahak> is that grammatically correct?
[17:47] <Jezz> what is GTK?

[17:51] <SpK> how do i install beryl 3d?
[17:51] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray, we are seeing the same things.. not sure how to proceed...

[17:52] <XB23> guys, what would make gcc run slow when normally it runs fast?
[17:52] <dep> Matthel: I can't really help you there, perhaps more aggressive compiler options?
[17:52] <soundray> sarthor: the easiest thing might be to get a third hard disk, make it the first in your system and install Windows on there.
[17:53] <sarthor> soundray, ok. but i am afraid that i dont want to loose my data, While i have tried a lot to destroy that, but thats still save :P
[17:53] <subzeroHusky> on ubunt i got the filesystem for the realvnc for linux x64 is that right
[17:54] <SliMM> Exteris: well, no message, do window doesn't even appear, it only shows in system monitor, eating 65% of my CPU
[17:54] <soundray> sarthor: now that you've fixed the ntfs, you can backup all your data using Ubuntu. I'm specifically suggesting that the third-harddisk option will keep your existing data safe
[17:54] <danand> SpK - if you did a standard install of ubuntu 7.10 then you chould have compiz installed by default - see about installing compizconfig-settings-manager to configure how it works. Also see System -> Preferences -> Appearance, then last tab "Visual Effects" to enable it
[17:55] <SliMM> Exteris: "the window", sorry, i don't know how that "do" got there :))
[17:55] <sarthor> soundray, ok.. i have that arrange of hard disk. Thank you both,
[17:55] <XB23> how can i find out if my CPU is overloaded?
[17:56] <dep> XB23: run 'top' from a command line, it will tell you the CPU usage of various things, this is probably the most intuitive way in my opinion
[17:56] <danand> XB23 - use the command "top" to see cpu and memory stats
[17:56] <lordleemo> XB23: htop
[17:56] <XB23> Cpu(s): 18.3%us, 66.3%sy,  0.0%ni,  0.0%id,  0.0%wa,  3.7%hi, 11.7%si,  0.0%st
[17:56] <XB23> is that overloaded?
[17:56] <Exteris> SliMM, I don't really like rhythmbox myself, and i don't have an ipod so i cant reproduce the problem, so maybe you should file a bug.
[17:57] <subzeroHusky> ubunt use the x64 or x86
[17:57] <SliMM> Exteris: what do you use?
[17:57] <davi1> how do disable the check disk option at boot?
[17:58] <Kate_mins> i installed ubuntu while my computer was not connected to the internet now my synaptic dosent have all packages ? how i can fix this problem ?
[17:58] <Exteris> SliMM, I use Listen at the moment, but there are a plethora of available options
[17:58] <danand> XB23 - errr .... kinda depends on what your system is doing at the moment.... what processes are using up the cpu cycles??
[17:58] <Exteris> SliMM, wow i actually got to use that word :p
[17:58] <danand> davi1 - did you not see the previous answers to your question ?
[17:58] <Exteris> SliMM, you could try Quod-Libet Exaile Amarok Banshee
[17:58] <Exteris> or another one
[17:59] <dep> Kate_mins: Open synaptic, and go to Settings -> Repositories
[17:59] <danand> davi1 - i would set the number of mounts between your disks being checked to a sensible value - sudo tune2fs -c 30 -i 30 /device_name
[17:59] <SliMM> Exteris: well, how can i make rhythmbox as it was when i installed ubuntu?
[18:00] <hardy64> hi, I'm trying to rip CDs using Soundjuicer. I have activated the MP3 Output profile, but I can't select from the list. Anyone know why?
[18:00] <dep> Kate_mins: and you should be able to check off the repositories ('repos') you want. The CD should be listed at the bottom, I'd remove the checkmark there. YOu can also select a preferred download site for added performance if you can find one near you.
[18:00] <SliMM> Exteris: i.e. delete all the settings & stuff
[18:00] <SpK> how do i screenshot?
[18:00] <dep> Kate_mins: once done, hit ok and click 'reload' to download the package information
[18:00] <SliMM> SpK: print screen button
[18:01] <davi1> danand: but the problem is that ubuntu looks for a disk that i removed and takes like 5 minutes to continue
[18:01] <Exteris> SliMM, sudo apt-get purge rhythmbox && sudo apt-get install rhythmbox
[18:01] <Exteris> !purge
[18:01] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about purge - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[18:01] <AldarHawk> just sudo su -
[18:01] <julien_> mon problème est résolu, je sais pas pourquoi, ca fait que 3 heures que je cherche...
[18:01] <danand> Kate_mins - alternatively you could edit the /etc/apt/sources.list file by hand.... just remove the "#" marks from in front of the repositories you want to use
[18:01] <AldarHawk> then you can just enter in what ever commands you want :D
[18:01] <SliMM> Exteris: thanks
[18:01] <subzeroHusky> on ububtu is it x64 or x86
[18:01] <Peanut> *ugh* it now takes over 10 minutes to boot my Ubuntu 7.10 and that's on a two week old dual core 3.0GHz machine - I fear the harddisk is dying, but how to test? There's no error messages in /var/log.
[18:02] <AldarHawk> x64 is 64 bit x86 is 32 bit
[18:02] <SpK> how do i hack, every linux user is a hacker
[18:02] <SliMM> Exteris: i love the fact that it is so simple, i need nothing more, and if i really need smth else, i will have a reason to learn python
[18:02] <hackeron> hey, can someone please tell me how to record from the right channel of line-in from the command line? - I tried arecord -c1 but that only records the left channel - I need the right one only :(
[18:02] <Peanut> And X won't even start, which makes it a bit hard to Google :-(
[18:02] <AldarHawk> SpK: that is a very general generalization
[18:03] <Exteris> SliMM, Listen has some nice features, for instance last.fm integration, wikipedia
[18:03] <SpK> is every linux user a hacker???
[18:03] <AldarHawk> not all Linux Users are Hackers...just like all Hackers are not Linux users
[18:03] <danand> davil - in that case check to see if the disk you removed is listed in /etc/fstab. If it is, make a backup copy of the file first, then edit the file to remove the reference to the disk
[18:03] <AldarHawk> also...What do YOU call a hacker?
[18:03] <subzeroHusky> AldarHawk how do you know what i am runnig
[18:03] <AldarHawk> do you go by the media hype?

[18:03] <AldarHawk> subzeroHusky I do not
[18:04] <subzeroHusky> is there a way to look
[18:04] <danand> SpK - hacker = good person that fixes code, cracker = bad person that breaks into your machine

[18:09] <muthym> somebody help please..i already installed nvidia driver but my screen is still generic..
[18:09] <ensi> muthym: did you configure your X server?
[18:09] <MasterShrek> muthym did you restart your xserver?
[18:10] <muthym> yes.. so many times.. i used envy..
[18:10] <danand> Conexio1 - i'm no expert on compiz, but open ccsm, click on preferences then look under the plugin list tab... hopefully that will help you out some
[18:10] <MasterShrek> ugh
[18:10] <MasterShrek> !envy | muthym
[18:10] <ubotu> muthym: 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 »
[18:10] <dep> dt84: you can actually make custom groups for users, one second while I look up a good reference for getting started on this
[18:10] <Winball> Envy is risky
[18:10] <ensi> muthym: i suggest you manually hack your xorg.conf
[18:10] <MasterShrek> muthym im sure most here would agree with me envy is a bad bad program, it will eventually break your machine almost guarenteed
[18:10] <omar> hello people
[18:11] <omar> i wanted to know something
[18:11] <muthym> so.. what shall i do.. uninstall envy?
[18:11] <omar> i have installed ubuntu 7.10 on my machine
[18:11] <omar> i dont have opengl support
[18:11] <omar> seems ubuntu didnt pick up my intel internal graphics card
[18:11] <SpK>  how do i get beryl 3d matrix????
[18:12] <omar> which is Intel Graphics Media Accelerator (GMA) 900
[18:12] <Winball> muthym dl driver from webpage, ctrl-alt-f1, sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop, sudo chmod +x NVIDIA-xxx then sudo ./NVIDIA-driver.xx.sh

[18:13] <Winball> athlon gnome-sound-recorder ?
[18:14] <athlon> so i install with sudo apt-get install gnome-sound-recorder
[18:14] <SpK> athlon: Maybe MPlayer is good
[18:14] <RequinB9> Hi, sorry for a noob question, but i'm failing at getting the right system-time
[18:14] <MasterShrek> athlon sudo apt-get sound-recorder     probably
[18:14] <Winball> athlon No. You find it under Applications-Sound&Video ?
[18:15] <dep> ubuntuisloved: poll pop.gmail.com with proto POP3 and options no dns (newline) user 'username@gmail.com' is 'local_user' here options ssl
[18:15] <MasterShrek> RequinB9: in a terminal type: date --help
[18:15] <dep> or @ jasonb2007 (please don't switch names so often)
[18:15] <RequinB9> MasterShrek: ok, brb
[18:15] <dep> jasonb2007: oh, and that's for .fetchmailrc btw
[18:16] <athlon> sudo apt-get sound-recorderE: Invalid operation sound-recorder
[18:16] <dep> RequinB9: have you set up ubuntu to automatically synchronize with a NTP server?
[18:16] <RequinB9> MasterShrek - ok, but it's probably better to usethe GUI
[18:16] <MasterShrek> athlon sorry, sudo apt-get install sound-recorder
[18:16] <dt84> dep: thanks, I'll look into it. This reference includes permissions for FAT32? I have WinXP installed on this computer, and I want its directories hidden to the new user I just opened.
[18:16] <SpK> i booted ubuntu with live cd, but i want to install it, how ???
[18:16] <Winball> athlon What happens if you just write gnome-sound-recorder ?
[18:17] <RequinB9> dep - well, i went to the adjust date+time (date and time settiings) GUI
[18:17] <danand> athlon - try to search with the package in aptitude or in synaptics.... but its sudo apt-get install ....
[18:17] <Cann0n> Spk, partition your hd
[18:17] <RequinB9> dep - and it gave me an option to install NTP, i said ok, and now i try to syncrhonize with a server but it doesnt' work
[18:17] <dep> dt84: fat32 permissions are going to be a problem, the fat32 spec doesn't support them properly
[18:17] <RequinB9> dep - and sorry for the !doesn't work, i really don't know
[18:18] <dep> RequinB9: no worries, have you selected a time server yet?
[18:18] <Cann0n> you can take a shortcut by deleting all the existing partitions, and then simply select the option to use largest unpartitioned space

[18:23] <fbc> MasterShrek,  yeah but I don't want to run the KDE subsystem just for one app.. I just saw screen shots of deluge and I think it might work out..
[18:23] <Cann0n> Nex, sudo apt-get install compiz-fusion-plugins-extras
[18:23] <MasterShrek> fbc yea ive heard deluge is good, ive never used it
[18:24] <Cann0n> and i think instead of extras, you can do -main as well Nex
[18:24] <dep> RequinB9: ok, I'm forgetting random things, sorry, been a while since I've messed with NTP, try sudo'ing that command, and it should reply that the NTP socket is in use
[18:24] <fbc> steven22, you just got to get it to work, period.
[18:24] <fbc> steven22, once it works with linux firefox will follow.
[18:24] <steven22> fbc, what do u mean? my usb audio works but flash is comming out of my internal speakers
[18:25] <fbc> steven22, ahh..
[18:25] <fbc> steven22, now we are getting to the root problem.
[18:25] <Nex> Cann0n: Thanks man :)
[18:25] <steven22> fbc, yeaah sorry haha
[18:26] <Cann0n> Nex, i think gutsy comes with them all. you may end up having to locate them as an actual package on a  website. i'd be interested in finding out. im a big fan of compiz
[18:26] <fbc> steven22, OK, so firefox uses the internal audio card while the other stuff uses the usb audio.. hmm, Have you tried going into the audio preferences and seting your default audio output source?
[18:27] <sajid> Is there anyway to prevent OpenSSH from disconnecting an remote connection after 1-2 minutes of idleness?
[18:28] <steven22> fbc, i've tried the command asoundconf
[18:28] <steven22> fbc, and i tried to reset the default to the usb
[18:28] <MasterShrek> steven22 try running: aoss firefox    from a terminal and see if the sound works
[18:28] <jane22> steven22: are you on hardy?
[18:28] <RequinB9> dep - sorry, was away looking at a man page, could you repeat what you just said
[18:28] <steven22> jane22, im on gutsy
[18:28] <fbc> steven22, how about disabling your internal sound card in the bios that way firefox will not have a choice.
[18:29] <steven22> mastershrek, i'll try that
[18:29] <steven22> fbc, how do i disable the internal sound on the bios
[18:30] <usr13> what package would I load to get 3c95x  (driver for 3com 905c ethernet device)?
[18:30] <dep> RequinB9: no worries mate, actually lets just try something entirely new. Run 'ntpq' from the command line, and then run the command 'peers' inside that program
[18:30]  * AldarHawk gives up on getting WiFi working
[18:30] <danand> usr13 - that should be in the kernel - no need to download any driver
[18:30] <warren_> hello
[18:30] <AldarHawk> guess I will just use this to write...not browse the net :(
[18:30] <dep> usr13: that driver is going to be in the kernel as a module, not a package. It should have a module that is loaded when the device is detected
[18:30] <RequinB9> dep - no entries
[18:30] <fbc> steven22, when your computer boots up you press DEL on most computers.
[18:30] <warren_> is hardy very unstable or rather stable for an alpha release?
[18:31] <RequinB9> dep - sorry to go away again, i have to go to the bathroom.  I'll be back in a second, sorry O.o
[18:31] <tapio> Why all these religions forks of ubuntu?
[18:31] <warren_> yeah why? (stupid)
[18:31] <usr13> dep: Maybe a hardware problem?
[18:32] <Cann0n> Nex, http://forum.compiz-fusion.org/showthread.php?t=5303
[18:32] <dep> RequinB9: ok, I'm wondering if it didn't pick up your NTP selections, let's restart the ntpd, I know that happened to me a bit ago. Try doing a 'sudo pkill ntpd' followed by 'sudo /etc/init.d/ntp-server start'
[18:32] <steven22> fbc, is there another way i could do this without messin with the biois
[18:32] <steven22> fbc, bios*
[18:32] <dep> usr13: possibly, do an lspci and see if you can find the card listed
[18:32] <al-_-Gir> someone use SCITE here ?
[18:33] <puller> can somone help me get java to work in firefox?
[18:33] <fbc> steven22, nope,, but your not going to break anything I promise. It's all menu driven...
[18:33] <danand> usr13 - is that a brand new card from 3com - i think i may have got my 5 and 9 mixed up .... theres a kernel module for 3c59x, but i can't see one for 3c95x :(
[18:33] <usr13>  dep: It shows in lspci
[18:34] <usr13> so...?
[18:34] <ensi> oh, is Intel 4965 wlan supposed to work out of the box with ubuntu 7.10? i've seen posts saying that it should work out of the box and posts saying that it doesnt
[18:34] <Winball> puller sudo apt-get install sun-java5-jre sun-java5-plugin
[18:34] <fbc> steven22, once your in the bios navigation instruction should appear at the bottom of your screen and look around for the option to disable your internal audio card.
[18:34] <usr13> danand: Maybe pre-compiled into the kernel nowdays.
[18:34] <steven22> fbc, ok i'll try that.. i do have a dual boot by the way

[18:36] <fbc> That won't matter as long as you would like to use your usb audio (only) in windows as well.
[18:36] <dep> usr13: dmesg | grep 3c, see if the kernel is trying to load anything or giving any errors
[18:36] <danand> XB23 - use htop. you can install htop if you dont have it by typing sudo apt-get install htop in a terminal
[18:36] <usr13> danand: dep:  It was working before... not sure what I've done, but have uninstalled a few packages and now, no eth0
[18:37] <usr13> dep: Did that, and do not see anything about 3c in dmesg
[18:37] <danand> usr13 - do you remember what packages you removed?
[18:37] <puller> Winball: any ideas?
[18:37] <piv> ello all
[18:37] <usr13> danand: Yes
[18:38] <usr13> I'll pastebin the list
[18:38] <danand> usr13 - k
[18:38] <usr13> will take a few...
[18:38] <danand> usr13 - k :)
[18:38] <XB23> that htop is good
[18:38] <XB23> thanks :)
[18:38] <danand> XB23 - :)
[18:38] <XB23> whats the adverage cpu for a shared hosting machine
[18:39] <XB23> is 25% usage acceptable?
[18:40] <usr13> http://pastebin.ca/949295   (removepkg list)
[18:40] <RequinB9> dep - attempting a 'sudo pkill ntpd' followed by 'sudo /etc/init.d/ntp-server start'
[18:41] <dep> usr13: that was removed?
[18:41] <bozukarob> How can I get a NTFS to mount on boot?
[18:41] <dep> RequinB9: after it restarts try to check the peers again via ntpq
[18:41] <puller> anyone know how to get java to work in firefox?
[18:41] <danand> usr13 - errr....
[18:41] <nickrud> ouch on that removal
[18:42] <hischild> is there a way to enable the extra keys/buttons on a laptop?
[18:42] <os2mac> is there a way to modify the look of the screensaver password lock window?
[18:42] <danand> usr13 - uh oh :O
[18:42] <nickrud> puller: sudo apt-get install sun-java6-plugin should do the trick
[18:42] <Willem123> Hello. Is this the place to ask questions on Ubuntu?
[18:42] <hischild> Willem123, yes
[18:42] <danand> Willem123 - yes
[18:42] <RequinB9> dep - sudo: /etc/init.d/ntp-server: command not found
[18:42] <puller> nickrud: i already have that installed
[18:43] <bozukarob> puller; install the restricted formats package
[18:43] <dep> RequinB9: bah, 'sudo ntpd' should work fine
[18:43] <puller> bozukarob: how do i do that?
[18:43] <nickrud> puller: then try removing gcjwebplugin
[18:43] <dep> RequinB9: apparently they changed the name to /etc/init.d/ntp instead of ntp-server
[18:43] <Willem123> Awesome! I'm a total newbie to Linux and I have some questions which are probably really easy for you guys. But I'm just wondering if its possible to install whole packages of dependacies? Currently Im downloading, unpacking, ./configure, make and make install everything. There must be an easier way.. is there?
[18:43] <usr13> Sorry, wrong channel  :)
[18:44] <nickrud> puller: I'm assuming a 32bit install, sun didn't create a 64bit plugin
[18:44] <Winball> puller sudo apt-get install sun-java5-jre sun-java5-plugin
[18:44] <kumarphilly> i want to set up ubuntu on a old pc i am getitng as a file server
[18:44] <bozukarob> puller; sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[18:44] <hischild> Willem123, yes there is. That's what aptitude is for
[18:44] <kumarphilly> which version of ubuntu should i install...
[18:44] <kumarphilly> like xubuntu
[18:44] <kumarphilly> or something
[18:44] <nickrud> Winball: java6 is available now, many sites require it
[18:44] <chdst> kumarphilly: need a GUI?
[18:44] <bozukarob> does anyone know how to mount a NTFS hdd on bootup?
[18:44] <Infamous_Cow> question. i have a few ubuntu machines setup on an internal network, and the only way they can access the internet is thru a proxy @ 192.168.1.1:8080. I can get firefox and specific apps to work, but for example, ping wont work
[18:45] <kumarphilly> chdst, sorta... not good with the terminal.... will remote connect from a different computer to it...
[18:45] <nickrud> !fstab | bozukarob: add it to your fstab
[18:45] <ubotu> bozukarob: add it to your fstab: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions
[18:45] <dep> kumarphilly: the different versions correspond to different interfaces essentially, if you're not sure, try the default ubuntu instlal, if you're curious try kubuntu or xubuntu
[18:45] <kumarphilly> ah....
[18:45] <kumarphilly> i was afraid that gnome would eat the resources
[18:45] <Nex> How do you shade a window that doesn't have a button there by default?
[18:45] <kumarphilly> now whats the diff in x and k ubuntus...
[18:46] <damaltor> hello everybody, i have set up a LAN server for hdd and print serving, wich used to shut off / put to stand by the HDD after a while (i think i set up 2 minutes in bios). after installing a few more services like apache, the hdd is running all the time because something reads from hdd every ~30 seconds. is there a posibility to reduce hdd activity, maybe by reconfiguring ram use? as long as i am explicitely using the server, the hdd may be
[18:46] <damaltor>  running, but if it just stands around and has nothing to do, that noise is really enerving... any hints?
[18:46] <al-_-Gir> someone here use SCITE or know how to configurate  it ?
[18:46] <hischild> kumarphilly, the window manager (like gnome and kde)
[18:46] <nickrud> Nex: system->prefs->windows, set it to roll up. then double click the title bar
[18:46] <dep> kumarphilly: the default ubuntu is gnome, kubuntu is kde, and xubuntu is xfce. If you're worried about resources try xubuntu, xfce is a lighter weight system than the other two
[18:46] <Nex> Thanks nickrud :D
[18:46] <kumarphilly> ah
[18:46] <kumarphilly> and im guessing ubuntu server has no gui?
[18:46] <RequinB9> deb - ok, no errors off of 'sudo ntpd', but system time isn't liking me yet
[18:46] <bozukarob> ubotu; thanks for the help!
[18:46] <chdst> kumarphilly: Good guess. :)
[18:46] <kumarphilly> how hard is it to work it?
[18:47] <dep> RequinB9: did you check to see if the peers are registering? (via ntpq)
[18:47] <chdst> It depends on your experience level and what you're trying to do, really...
[18:47] <RequinB9> dep - still no entries
[18:47] <wildman> hello there
[18:47] <fabouney> Hi !
[18:48] <fabouney> what's the principal difference between Xchat-gnome and Xchat
[18:48] <kumarphilly> trying to set up a home server that i can store files and back up onto... basicly and ftp server.....
[18:48] <viro_> hey any one  here good with c++?
[18:48] <chdst> Right...are Windows machines involved?
[18:48] <kumarphilly> no hosting a website..
[18:48] <kumarphilly> yes
[18:48] <kumarphilly> there is one windows machine
[18:48] <hischild> Infamous_Cow, look at simpleproxy
[18:48] <puller> nickrud: i removed that thign u told me to and tried, and it still didnt work, now i am tryign what bozukarob said to do
[18:48] <nickrud> fabouney: xchat-gnome is brain dead (very little configuration available)
[18:48] <kumarphilly> oh yea and wanna share a printer (which should work with windows)
[18:48] <viro_> could any one help me with this http://slexy.org/view/s2D2vGdE0o
[18:48] <puller> nickrud: in the bottom of the firefox bar it does say applet started, i just see a gray box....
[18:48] <fabouney> ok nickrud, so Xchat-gnome is faster than Xchat
[18:49] <Willem123> Would someone be kind enough to redirect me to a page where I can find a way to quickly install programs. Currently I have to type quite a lot of commando's to install from source.
[18:49] <dep> RequinB9: ok, lets look at the config file manually, 'sudo nano -w /etc/ntp.conf', check the bottom lines for 'server' entries, the last lines in the file should say something like 'server ntp1.cs.wisc.edu' or whatever servers you selected
[18:49] <chdst> That limits your options, in my opinion. If you just want to share files, a few different things could do it. If you want to share files and a printer, though, Samba quickly becomes the best solution.
[18:49] <nickrud> puller: sure, that's worth doing. When you're done (and if it doesn't work)  try about:plugins , see what it says about java
[18:49] <Infamous_Cow> hischild: : )
[18:49] <genii> Willem123: Use the package manager.
[18:49] <nickrud> fabouney: when it comes to irc, I don't think speed will be an issue :)
[18:49] <wildman> I've read here: http://www.vmware.com/support/reference/linux/loopback_linux.html, that one can download a vmware-mount Linux tool to (loopback) mount vmware disk images to access them from the host OS, however, I didn't find such a tool (I could only download the Windows version of the tool after digging a bit around vmware's site, but it's of no use for me). Does any of you know if the Linux tool is available and where and/or if there's an alternative
[18:49] <wildman> way to mount vmware disk images?
[18:49] <fabouney> lol
[18:49] <Willem123> But the package manager doesnt support OpenFTD
[18:49] <chdst> http://www.samba.org if you haven't heard of it...they have a very knowledgeable community and a wiki full of help.
[18:49] <kumarphilly> samba is...
[18:49] <kumarphilly> ok
[18:50] <hischild> Infamous_Cow, you're the one from zd?
[18:50] <fabouney> nickrud: you use Xchat ?
[18:50] <nickrud> fabouney: yes
[18:50] <kumarphilly> now can i run samba on xubuntu?
[18:50] <damaltor> hello everybody, is there any possibility to reduce hdd activity? i have set up a small server in my lan, and that noise is really making me go wild....
[18:50] <kumarphilly> fabouney, i use xchat also..
[18:50] <tritium> Hello, kumarphilly.
[18:50] <genii> Willem123: Then unfortunately you'll just have to get used to doing the ./configure;make;make install      process
[18:50] <muthym> i successfully installed the driver(from nvidia site) but the screen/graphics still vesa&screen is "plugNplay" w/ max. resolution of 800x600..
[18:50] <bichar> lets play
[18:50] <fabouney> i installing Xchat-gnome for testing
[18:50] <chdst> You can run samba on any of the ubuntu flavors, yes.
[18:51] <puller> nickrud: what bozukarob said didnt work, so i will let u know wha about:plugins gives me
[18:51] <kumarphilly> hello... tritium
[18:51] <fabouney> french here ?
[18:51] <nickrud> !fr | fabouney
[18:51] <ubotu> fabouney: Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[18:51] <tritium> fabouney: no, in #ubuntu-fr
[18:51] <RequinB9> dep - last line is 'server ntp.cmr.gov'
[18:51] <fabouney> oops :p
[18:51] <RequinB9> dep - disableauth and broadcast climate are commented, and i'm willing to bet thats a good thing
[18:51] <puller> nickrud: i have a lot of java things listed under this heading: GCJ Web Browser Plugin (using IcedTea) 1.5
[18:52] <nickrud> fabouney: heh. not knowing is not something to apologize for :)
[18:52] <kumarphilly> so how hard is to set up a ftp server on ubuntu server with out gui
[18:52] <kumarphilly> and samba
[18:52] <dep> RequinB9: yes, that's a good thing
[18:52] <kumarphilly> or could i just install xubuntu... install everything and kill the GUI proccess?
[18:52] <RequinB9> dep - somehow, i figured :)
[18:52] <nickrud> puller: then for sure you're using a gcj plugin, weak.  try   dpkg -l 'gcjweb*' | grep ^ii , that will tell you all the ones installed. Remove them all
[18:53] <puller> nickrud: that command didnt return anything...
[18:53] <dep> RequinB9: I'm potentially at a loss here, if there is a valid server line it should appear under ntpq - peers even if the server can't synchronize with it (if it has a + next to it it would be a valid candidate, a * means it is sync'd, and a - would be not valid candidate, which is what you should see at a minimum)
[18:54] <nickrud> puller: and again, this is assuming a 32bit install, not 64bit
[18:54] <wildman> kumarphilly, http://www.howtoforge.com/ubuntu-gutsy-samba-domaincontroller for Samba (though may be a bit overkill)
[18:54] <PuppiesOnAcid`> what version of the kernel is installed with 7.10?
[18:54] <puller> nickrud: i am pretty sure i am 32bit
[18:54] <kumarphilly> wildman, thanks!
[18:54] <fabouney> nickrud: i'm sorry but i not understand, im french :)
[18:54] <BluesDrive> how do I get my wLAN to work?  I'm not completely sure but I have a Intel PRO wLAN thing.  I'm using a Sony VGN-AR 570.
[18:54] <wildman> kumarphilly, and you'll find lots of other howtos for other configurations there
[18:54] <kumarphilly> BluesDrive, just plug it in... and the wireless network thing will be next to the clock
[18:54] <kumarphilly> and click on the little pc
[18:54] <kumarphilly> and connect to your entwork..
[18:55] <kumarphilly> i think
[18:55] <RequinB9> dep - yep, i've tried everything
[18:55] <nickrud> puller: then try  seeing if icedtea-java7-plugin is installed, try removing that
[18:55] <BluesDrive> kumarphilly:  it's not a plug in.  it's integrated, and it won't recognize it.
[18:55] <wido> hi!
[18:55] <wido> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardyReleaseSchedule
[18:55] <puller> nickrud:  ok
[18:56] <kumarphilly> blue-frog__, in that case idk..
[18:56] <wido> is there a beta coming tomorrow?
[18:56] <Grrrrrrrr3332> Bosnia Bosnia...\o/ \o/ Bosnia Bosnia...\o/ \o/ Bosnia Bosnia...\o/ \o/ Bosnia Bosnia...\o/ \o/ Bosnia Bosnia...\o/ \o/ Bosnia Bosnia...\o/ \o/ Bosnia Bosnia...\o/ \o/ Bosnia Bosnia...\o/ \o/ Bosnia Bosnia...\o/ \o/ Bosnia Bosnia...\o/ \o/ Bosnia Bosnia...\o/ \o/ Bosnia Bosnia...\o/ \o/ Bosnia Bosnia...\o/ \o/ Bosnia Bosnia...\o/ \o/ Bosnia Bosnia...\o/ \o/ Bosnia Bosnia...\o/ \o/ Bosnia Bosnia...\o/ \o/ Bosnia Bos
[18:56] <nickrud> puller: all these attempts at java plugins suck
[18:56] <stamen> hi
[18:56] <lordleemo> PuppiesOnAcid`: 2.6.22-14-generic
[18:56] <stamen> how to fix this  http://www.picvalley.net/v.php?p=u/45/11096_514.JPG
[18:56] <stamen> anybody know
[18:56] <thenetduck> how stable is SELinux for Ubuntu? is it ready for production machines yet?
[18:56]  * genii hands FloodBot2 a coffee for the good work
[18:56] <RequinB9> dep - its not that the time isn't there, its just that its wrong, which indicates its not connecting to the server...
[18:56] <stamen> I want the better look
[18:56] <stamen> like it was before :)
[18:56] <PuppiesOnAcid`> i need a kernel before 2.6.11
[18:56] <PuppiesOnAcid`> http://homepages.tu-darmstadt.de/~p_larbig/wlan/
[18:57] <dep> RequinB9: something I should have thought of earlier, perhaps the wrong time zone is selected?
[18:57] <PuppiesOnAcid`> for the prism2_usb injection driver
[18:57] <RequinB9> dep - would going into my bios help?  And maybe, what is the minutes right nwo?
[18:57] <dep> RequinB9: but that still wouldn't explain why the servers aren't showing under ntpq-peers
[18:57] <Jack_Sparrow> stamen, Please post a brief descriptoin of the problem and not just a link
[18:57] <puller> nickrud: that wa sinstalled, so i am now removing it
[18:58] <stamen> ok
[18:58] <RequinB9> dep - my thoughts too
[18:58] <dep> RequinB9: 57 min, and editing the clock in the bios shouldn't need to be done
[18:58] <stamen> like it is on the picture, firefox lokks very bad know
[18:58] <kumarphilly> one last question.. i have a pentium d in my main computer... if i install xubuntu will it run any faster then ubunut?
[18:58] <vulcar> amenado, we have aldarhawks wifi issue ressolved finally.
[18:58] <stamen> it was OK before upgrading GIMP to version 2.4.5
[18:59] <stamen> now only firefox and GIMP are so ugly
[18:59] <tritium> kumarphilly: yes, somewhat
[18:59] <nickrud> kumarphilly: how much memory do you have, that's the real limiting factor.
[18:59] <stamen> I mean with this bad look
[18:59] <puller> nickrud: so now just restart firefox and see if it works?
[18:59] <nickrud> puller: sure
[18:59] <RequinB9> dep - ok, well my system clock tells me 12:57 military, and it should be a few hours later
[18:59] <genii> PuppiesOnAcid`: "..the prism2_usb driver works out of the box" <- for 7.10 and 8.04, per https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/prism2_usb
[18:59] <kumarphilly> Nikki85, on the pentium d...or on the old stuff..
[18:59] <Jack_Sparrow> stamen, did you get gimp directly from gimp?
[18:59] <stamen> I want them to be like they was after clen instalation of Kubuntu or ubuntu
[18:59] <stamen> yes
[18:59] <PuppiesOnAcid`> genii: i need a driver that can do injections though
[19:00] <stamen> I get it from the kde.org
[19:00] <Nikki85> kumarphilly ?
[19:00] <Jack_Sparrow> stamen, there is a reason we stress to people that staying inside the repos will make for a more stable working system
[19:00] <kumarphilly> i mean nikrud
[19:01] <genii> PuppiesOnAcid`: Works with wlan-ng on 8.04 not 7.10 tho
[19:01] <stamen> I know, but I wanted the newer version, as I saw this version is marked as stable
[19:01] <stamen> I think
[19:01] <kumarphilly> nickrud, on which computer are you asking me the ram
[19:01] <kumarphilly> pentium d
[19:01] <kumarphilly> or the old one..
[19:01] <reflexivu> APACHE: i have installed on my ubuntu running laptop. apache, mySql and phpmyadmin... and i changed the default site directory to another one, located in my home folder, thinking that this way apache will heve permission to access files in it... i was wrong, i have to manually set permissions per file, and that does not always work... what can i do so that i can access all my web pages from the Web browser?
[19:01] <nickrud> kumarphilly: all around, more memory -> faster operation. I ran gnome on a celeron, only reason I upgraded was it couldn't handle more than 512mb
[19:01] <Jack_Sparrow> stamen, stable by them, but not tested and marked by us.. correct
[19:01] <PuppiesOnAcid`> genii: to inject?
[19:02] <stamen> Jack_Sparrow: yes :)
[19:02] <Jack_Sparrow> stamen, What was in the newer version that you needed?
[19:02] <PuppiesOnAcid`> genii: the injection and all the aircrack programs?
[19:02] <kumarphilly> i have 2 gig of ram in the pentium d... old one is like 256 i beilieve...
[19:02] <stamen> nothing special, few things
[19:02] <nickrud> kumarphilly: then the D will run just fine
[19:02] <dep> RequinB9: not sure what to tell you, I think I'm getting beyond my area of ntp knowledge, I can't fathom why it wouldn't be processing the servers listed in the ntp.conf file
[19:02] <stamen> and tried to upgrade
[19:02] <stamen> and now....
[19:02] <Cowlol> hello I have a problem installing from livecd on ubuntu 7.10, it freezes after picking the "start or install" option on the boot screen (while loading linux kernel, mostly at 100%), I've tried adding noapic boot option and that got me to gnome but only in xterm mode
[19:03] <Jack_Sparrow> stamen, I dont suppose you have made any backups of your system
[19:03] <dep> RequinB9: perhaps just purge ntp and start from scratch, but it sounds like you just recently installed it
[19:03] <reflexivu> anyone
[19:03] <stamen> Jack_Sparrow: when you are going to test it, to know how to fix this :)
[19:03] <kumarphilly> yes but i run ubuntu on it already (thats not the pc i want as server, its my personal one) so will the 2 gig one run xubuntu any faster... or will i not notice a diff...
[19:03] <genii> PuppiesOnAcid`: Unknown from the documentation there
[19:03] <stamen> Jack_Sparrow: yes I didn't make backups
[19:03] <Jack_Sparrow> Cowlol, At start or install press F6 and remove Quiet and Splash from the command line. If it still fails.. Repeat and after removing quiet and splash add noapic acpi=off before the "--"
[19:03] <kumarphilly> ^ @ nickrud
[19:03] <nickrud> kumarphilly: it will be noticable, somewhat
[19:03] <stamen> Jack_Sparrow: but everything works
[19:03] <chdst> stamen: Generally speaking, you should be fine doing the configure/make routing if you set your configure --prefix to /usr/local. It sounds a bit like that is not the case for your current install...
[19:04] <stamen> normal
[19:04] <reflexivu> APACHE: i have installed on my ubuntu running laptop. apache, mySql and phpmyadmin... and i changed the default site directory to another one, located in my home folder, thinking that this way apache will heve permission to access files in it... i was wrong, i have to manually set permissions per file, and that does not always work... what can i do so that i can access all my web pages from the Web browser?
[19:04] <chdst> routing/routine
[19:04] <kumarphilly> ah thanks..
[19:04] <RequinB9> dep - hmm... now that i remember, i boot non-quiet non-splash and i may have seen something about the clock on boot sequence...
[19:04] <stamen> I didn't use prefixes
[19:04] <stamen> upps
[19:04] <PuppiesOnAcid`> genii: but that driver will work?
[19:04] <chdst> Yeah. Future reference. :)
[19:04] <SliMM> is there a rhythmbox support channel?
[19:04] <wildman> bye ppl
[19:04] <stamen> how to make it with prefix
[19:05] <reflexivu> please please please
[19:05] <Cann0n> reflexivu, #apache would be of big help. but, i suggest not relocating your htdocs directory. i had the same issues
[19:05] <kumarphilly> is there anyway to remotely install ubuntu on the new (old) pc
[19:05] <kumarphilly> like over network or soething..
[19:05] <dep> RequinB9: ok, that may be important, you should be able to access kernel messages from checking your logs in /var/log/kern.log.0
[19:05] <lancerocke> Hi all. I was wondering if there was a Linux designer's IRC channel anywhere specializing in GTK
[19:06] <dep> RequinB9: I apologize but I need to get going, meeting in a few, good luck mate!
[19:06] <reflexivu> cann0n, si hat did you do
[19:06] <stamen> chdst: could you tell me how to make the configure with prefixes
[19:06] <RequinB9> kk thx
[19:06] <kumarphilly> anyone?
[19:06] <reflexivu> cann0n, what did you do?
[19:06] <Jack_Sparrow> stamen, you cant stick toothpaste back into the tube...  Building from source is not a real problem for experienced users.   Trying to fix a system after the fact is frustrating at best
[19:06] <pushpop> whats the command arguments to mount a ntfs partition?
[19:07] <stamen> Jack_Sparrow: ok :)
[19:07] <soon> Hi folks - I've used 4 different CDs to burn an ubuntu installation .iso now - they all die during boot: BOOT FAILURE INSERT BOOT DISK AND PRESS ENTER
[19:07] <stamen> hope soon will be fix or new official release in ubuntu repositories
[19:07] <Cann0n> reflexivu, its been a while. I know if you want to view your website, start the apache server and type localhost in your url bar

[19:16] <soon> you just said dictionary
[19:16] <chdst> Quentin`: It sounds like the proxy you're is an web-only proxy, and that it won't allow you to pass traffic like DNS requests or pings no matter how you configure it.

[19:19] <Cowlol> Hi, I'm having a problem installing Ubuntu 7.10 from live CD (32 bit desktop), I've verified the iso and tried burning several times but it always freezes on boot screen (while loading linux kernel). Adding noapic option stops it from freezing but only gets me a restricted xterm mode. Removing quiet and spalsh options also have the same effect. I'm using an acer with intel 965PM motherboard and core 2 duo processor.

[19:20] <kumarphilly> why did playmobitch get !language
[19:20] <kumarphilly> ohh
[19:20] <kumarphilly> i c
[19:20] <Karsyt1> Cann0n its not a .exe but its a linux executable
[19:20] <Jack_Sparrow> mw-home, Are we talking th same thing.. in a terminal window?  shift+ctrl+c to copy  or v to paste?
[19:20] <Itaku> what does error 15 mean when i start my comp?
[19:20] <R^3_DevelAdmin> but i'm not sure if xpad is the right one, since it doesn't work
[19:21] <Starnestommy> Itaku: file not found
[19:21] <Karsyt1> Cann0n: it says MIME Type: application/x-executable
[19:21] <Cowlol> I also tried all-generic-ide and irqpoll options and it still freezes while loading kernel
[19:21] <Itaku> oh ffs
[19:21] <Cann0n> Karsyt1, what type of file is it?
[19:21] <Itaku> thats the umpteenth time ive been hacked
[19:21] <Karsyt1> Cann0n: executable, not windows though
[19:21] <Karsyt1> Cann0n: it has no extension
[19:22] <Toznoshio> lordleemo, thanks for pointing me to those dictionaries
[19:22] <bluebanana> how do i find out my network device's name? (I tried eth0, but it isn't it).

[19:22] <lordleemo> Toznoshio: your welcome

[19:22] <Cowlol> :(
[19:22] <Cann0n> through*
[19:22] <Karsyt1> Cann0n: i wanted to but i dont know what command i would use.
[19:22] <Itaku> where can i report a hacker?
[19:22] <Jack_Sparrow> Karsyt1, is it bash or what?     have you tried  ./script
[19:22] <bluebanana> Starnestommy: cool. so i did that. now which one in that list is the active one?
[19:23] <Cann0n> ./name
[19:23] <rblst> Hey all, I have a Java application (JDictionary 1.8), I don't have Central European characters in it, but in other apps I have. What to do?

[19:23] <Starnestommy> Itaku: your ISP or the suspected hacker's ISP or the police
[19:23] <bluebanana> Starnestommy: ath0, eth0, lo wifi0-00
[19:23] <Cann0n> Karsyt1, did you try typing the name in the command line?
[19:23] <Jack_Sparrow> Karsyt1, do you have a link to it
[19:23] <danand> Itaku - by the sound of it, you really need to secure your box.... set a bios password and change the boot devices order to prevent people from cracking your system with a live cd. ie set the hard disk to before the cdrom and usb disks
[19:23] <Itaku> and this is the umpteenth time they hacked me
[19:23] <MythGuy> How do I see if my sound card is detected by Ubuntu?
[19:23] <Karsyt1> Cann0n: just type the name of the file?
[19:23] <Itaku> they just deleted all the files in /
[19:23] <Starnestommy> bluebanana: it's eithrt ath0 or wifi0-00
[19:23] <Itaku> im reinstalling right now
[19:23] <Starnestommy> *either

[19:24] <bluebanana> Starnestommy: thanks

[19:24] <SliMM> please, i need help with my rhythmbox
[19:24] <b47619> do you happen to know of an ubuntu 8.04 alpha bug that causes the system to only successfully login and function in a failsafe gnome session?

[19:24] <Itaku> i only see them in the logs the hour before my comp gets haced

[19:25] <Cowlol> Hi, I'm having a problem installing Ubuntu 7.10 from live CD (32 bit desktop), I've verified the iso and tried burning several times but it always freezes on boot screen (while loading linux kernel). Adding noapic option stops it from freezing but only gets me a restricted xterm mode. Removing quiet and spalsh options also have the same effect.

[19:25] <ompaul> Itaku, post your logs
[19:25] <Cann0n> Karsyt1, ./nameoffile   ?

[19:25] <Cowlol> ubuntu hates me..
[19:25] <bluebanana> Starnestommy: which logs?
[19:25] <ompaul> Itaku, then stop complaining - cos you are not correct until you post them
[19:25] <Starnestommy> Itaku: just remove any sensitive information
[19:25] <Starnestommy> bluebanana: auth.log is one
[19:26] <xjkx> cowbud, ubuntu used to hate me too :p
[19:26] <Itaku> im already 1000% sure that they did it
[19:26] <Itaku> they hate me
[19:26] <Karsyt1> Cann0n: i think that worked. now i just have to fix some little error i got because i put the folder in the wrong location
[19:26] <Itaku> and theyve been doing it the exact same way
[19:26] <Karsyt1> Cann0n: yeah that worked, thanks much :D

[19:27] <Cann0n> np
[19:27] <Cowlol> where can I find more about boot options or why gnome would start in xterm mode?
[19:27] <Jack_Sparrow> Karsyt1, thought I mentioned that earlier

I'm using an acer with intel 965PM motherboard and core 2 duo processor. Other options I tried are all-generic-
[19:35] <Ouroborosity> that's exactly the same problem with me
[19:35] <Cowlol> is there another place where I can ask that isn't a forum?
[19:35] <Ouroborosity> freezes on boot
[19:36] <scott__H> dose it come up with an error
[19:36] <jin> mhh movie player has sound but not VLC :(
[19:36] <scott__H> ?
[19:36] <Ouroborosity> no error
[19:36] <ar0nic> cowlol run memtest.
[19:36] <scott__H> hmmm
[19:36] <Ouroborosity> just freezes
[19:36] <scott__H> try another live cd???
[19:36] <Ouroborosity> and I'm a noob with linux, so i'm at a loss
[19:36] <spz> cowlol, have you tried Wubi ?
[19:36] <Ouroborosity> tried it
[19:36] <Cowlol> ar0nic: memory test in the boot screen?
[19:36] <Ouroborosity> redownloaded it from a different location
[19:36] <scott__H> could be your useing the one for amd
[19:36] <Ouroborosity> hm
[19:37] <Cowlol> no spz, not on this laptop anyway
[19:37] <ar0nic> sure the grubloader will let you press escape and then it would be option 3
[19:37] <rblst> is there a global setting for character encoding, fonts, etc. for Java applications?
[19:37] <scott__H> so yeah any advice on oblivion i have wine im not that silly
[19:37] <Itaku> brb
[19:37] <Ouroborosity> well this is frustrating
[19:37] <ompaul> scott__H, wine specific stuff in #winehq

[19:38] <ubotu> Ouroborosity: For a list and explanation on some of the boot options, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions
[19:38] <p4nny89> try using an Alternate Install CD
[19:38] <R^3_DevelAdmin> how do i make /dev/input/js0 ?
[19:38] <spz> with Wubi you download a installer and run it. that's it. reboot and it's there :) not sure about 7.10 though
[19:38] <pan^fester> hiho
[19:39] <Ouroborosity> hmm, wubi seems worth a try
[19:39] <spz> yeah, forget all the cds and stuff. why not make it simle ? :)
[19:39] <spz> simple*
[19:40] <Cowlol> spz: I tried Wubi before (on my older pc), it's nice but I'd like to try the normal install option
[19:40] <Ouroborosity> last time i used and linux distro was Redhat years ago
[19:40] <Mindpoke> Ehmm, can someone help me? I accidentaly removed the menu bar in xchat with a misclick, anyone know how i would go about getting it back? :p
[19:40] <spz> alright, cowlol. but why if i may ask ?
[19:41] <lordleemo> Mindpoke: press F9
[19:41] <Elijah_> ****Breaking News**** Ubuntu takes market share away from Microsoft at an alarming rate and is exponentially growing!

[19:42] <ompaul> Elijah_, ^^
[19:42] <Ouroborosity> i had a specific question

[19:42] <Ouroborosity> and i was pointing out my nubishness
[19:42] <kumarphilly> oops maybe i should try #azureus

[19:44] <Elijah_> lordleemo, Thanks
[19:44] <Svenstaro> Does anybody have a recent guide on how to properly put together an Ubuntu live cd? The one on Ubuntu.com is for 6.06 :S
[19:44] <lordleemo> Elijah_: welcome
[19:44] <Elijah_> Svenstaro, That can't be true
[19:44] <Svenstaro> Well I
[19:44] <Svenstaro> I'm not lying :P
[19:44] <Elijah_> Svenstaro, The latest release 7.10 is the live cd available
[19:45] <Svenstaro> Yes, I want to put together my own live distro based on ubuntu
[19:45] <Svenstaro> The howto in the community docs is for 6.06 only and reconstructor isnt powerful enoguh
[19:45] <Elijah_> Svenstaro, there is a lts 6.06
[19:45] <Elijah_> but a 7.10 above it
[19:45] <jdkarns> I have an MSI RX1600Pro-TD256e Graphics Card.  Does anyone know the best place to find the correct drivers for Linux Ubuntu download and install
[19:46] <b47619> what was the one for hardy heron support?
[19:46] <Svenstaro> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization?highlight=%28live%29%7C%28cd%29
[19:46] <Svenstaro> this ones for 6.06
[19:46] <Svenstaro> I might be blind but I can't seem to find it
[19:46] <b47619> which one is 8.04?
[19:46] <ompaul> !hardy | b47619
[19:46] <ubotu> b47619: 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
[19:46] <nett00n> i have 1 question about fluxbox. How to hibernate there?
[19:46] <inil> hi all
[19:46] <R^3_DevelAdmin> how can i remove the newer version of xpad (for 360) and put the older 0.6 module (for old xbox)
[19:46] <Elijah_> Svenstaro,  on this page --> http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download is a live cd for 7.10
[19:46] <inil> i can connect dynamic ip for remote desktop?
[19:47] <la-perr> what is the command for reconfigering?
[19:47] <Svenstaro> I dont want to download a live cd, I want to put together my own ubuntu based specialised distro
[19:47] <la-perr> xorg
[19:47] <Elijah_> Svenstaro, I ca't help you with that
[19:47] <jdkarns> I have an MSI RX1600Pro-TD256e Graphics Card.  Does anyone know the best place to find the correct drivers for Linux Ubuntu download and install
[19:47] <Svenstaro> Well thanks anyway
[19:47] <Elijah_> jdkarns, I don't know did you try searching the forums
[19:47] <Super_Napalm> I'm trying everything i can't get Half Life 2 to launch at all, looking on the Wine website but I can't really find anything useful
[19:48] <Cann0n> R^3_DevelAdmin, try google.com.
[19:48] <Elijah_> Svenstaro, sorry - I am in the early stages, I want to try learning Python I think.
[19:48] <jdkarns> Elijah_, no i suppose i could check that out
[19:48] <frold> any one knows howto run TVu on linux?=
[19:48] <adac> anyone familiar with ltsp/pxe boot?
[19:48] <Elijah_> jdkarns, it may be best to just search for "msi video" to begin with
[19:48] <Svenstaro> Yes, adac
[19:49] <Elijah_> jdkarns, or you could do "msi video ubuntu" on google
[19:49] <Ouroborosity> whoever suggested wubi
[19:49] <adac> Svenstaro: on the client I get this error: PXE-T01: File not found
[19:49] <Ouroborosity> it's trying to find 7.04 alternate install, but it can't
[19:49] <hyakuhei> hmmm, supposing that I hadn't done something stupid, what should I expect to see on a typical laptop installation of ubuntu for "uname -r" ?
[19:49] <adac> but I'm sure that the path to pxelinux.0 fits
[19:49] <Svenstaro> adac, are you using it in conjuction with a dhcp server?
[19:49] <Ouroborosity> nevermind me
[19:49] <jdkarns> Elijah_, Ya i did a lot of google searches to no avail
[19:50] <Elijah_> It's cool to see the size of the channel grow by 30% since I last came on many months ago
[19:50] <adac> Svenstaro: yes...dhcp server is on the same machine as tftp
[19:50] <Elijah_> I think that between 2010-2012 the momentum will really be flying for Ubuntu!
[19:50] <Jack_Sparrow> hyakuhei, your kernel info
[19:50] <eduardo> hello somebody know how conect with the LAN a OS in VirtualBox ?
[19:50] <jdkarns> Elijah_, I found the exact download i need but it is either a fake or not working as it just sits there saying download will start in a moment
[19:50] <Jack_Sparrow> Elijah_, See what happens after Hardy
[19:51] <Svenstaro> adac, okay, well I'm sure you already double checked the path, did you successfully boot another PXE on that machine?
[19:51] <Elijah_> Jack_Sparrow, Yeah it will be exciting!
[19:51] <Cann0n> eduardo, what os are you running on vmware?
[19:51] <Elijah_> Jack_Sparrow, we just need some better hardware support to really fly!
[19:51] <eduardo> Windows
[19:51] <adac> Svenstaro: wanna see the config files? No i did not check with another machine yet...cause my other notebook is broken
[19:51] <hyakuhei> Jack_Sparrow, yes, I know what the command means, I was pondering which kernel I would be running on a typical (i.e not fubar) system...
[19:51] <Elijah_> jdkarns, where is the link?
[19:51] <eduardo> and the real machine is Ubuntu Cannon
[19:51] <hyakuhei> I'm having a few issues lol
[19:52] <Jack_Sparrow> Elijah_, We need to keep on topic
[19:52] <Svenstaro> adac, yes, put the config on pastebin
[19:52] <Jack_Sparrow> 2 6 22 14
[19:52] <eduardo> the Windows has IP: 10.... and the Ubuntu has 192...
[19:52] <p4nny89> how can i redirect traffic from port X to port Y, couldn't find any good tutorial
[19:52] <chdst> I can't resist the pimpage, though. I'm running Hardy right now. It's not even Beta, and it's the best OS I've ever used.
[19:52] <Cann0n> eduardo, you should just change the type of connection. I use NAT settings.
[19:52] <adac> Svenstaro: one question to the /opt/ltsp... path before. it belongs to the user root...do I have to change that?
[19:53] <Svenstaro> adac, to be sure, make it 777
[19:53] <Svenstaro> might be an issue there
[19:53] <WhipsMcGee> can someone help me setup a printer through samba?  I get an error when I run this:
[19:53] <WhipsMcGee> root@ubuntu:~# lpadmin -p Invoice -v smb://user:pass@192.168.1.104/OKIB4250 -P /root/inkjet.ppd
[19:53] <WhipsMcGee> lpadmin: No such file or directory
[19:53] <eduardo> yes Cannon, I used it, but the IP is the same....
[19:53] <Ashfire908> I've got the LiveCD Persistence thing working on my usb drive, but i have a concern: how much will using it for the livecd persistence shorten it's life expentancy?
[19:53] <nikrud> p4nny89: an example: http://erik.thauvin.net/wiki/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=72
[19:53] <chdst> Though it does make me feel like I should just stick with LTS releases...it was a lot easier to upgrade some old dapper boxen than it was to increment up from dapper to edgy to feisty to...you get the idea. :)
[19:54] <Svenstaro> Ashfire908, by a considerable amount
[19:54] <adac> Svenstaro, : I just was wondering because according to this howto this is not needed: http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/LTSP
[19:54] <adac> sorry its german ;)
[19:54] <Svenstaro> adac, I'm German so no worries
[19:54] <Cann0n> eduardo, you are trying to use two IP's? I tried that option, it didnt work, so i moved to the next, and my VM gets online, so i was happy.
[19:54] <adac> Svenstaro: :)
[19:55] <Ashfire908> Svenstaro: :-/
[19:55] <_KavOOr_> #ubuntu+1
[19:55] <Cann0n> stay on topic folks
[19:55] <SliMM> hello
[19:55] <jdkarns> Elijah_, http://www.drivers.mrjuan.com/download-4148-15-rx1600pro-td256e-linux-ubuntu.html
[19:55] <Svenstaro> Ashfire908, use it as a third system only, do not boot it regulartly
[19:55] <Ashfire908> Svenstaro: what do you mean?
[19:56] <SliMM> does "make install" install an application on my system, just like a .deb file or smth?
[19:56] <Svenstaro> Ashfire908, just don't boot the system too frequently from the usb key and it won't do much harm
[19:56] <jdkarns> Elijah_, I think the link is just a page someone set up for advertisements
[19:56] <Starnestommy> SliMM: somewhat like that, except the package manager usually won't manage it
[19:56] <WhipsMcGee> does anyone here know how to get a printer working when it is being shared by a windows pc?
[19:56] <Svenstaro> adac, just try making it 777, just in case. Furthermore, that guide seems well, try a very small PXE boot image from somewhere to nail down the problem
[19:56] <eduardo> not Cannon, I want one IP only... I've Internet in the 2 computer...but I think they are in diferent LAN
[19:57] <Juozapas> WhipsMcGee: i use configuration like u want
[19:57] <SliMM> Starnestommy: well, how can i make the package manager manage such an application?
[19:57] <Svenstaro> adac, also double check the root path
[19:57] <MindSpark> does firefox play weird games on me alone ?
[19:57] <cschneid_> if I have the gutsy release, can I pull specific hardy packages?  (ie. xmonad?)
[19:57] <Starnestommy> SliMM: find out how to make your own packages or download an existing one
[19:57] <adac> Svenstaro: yea i did it according to this howto...so this is probably the only file that differs: http://pastebin.com/m4d2e99ce
[19:57] <eduardo> so the real Machine (Ubuntu) has IP: 192.168.1.128 and the Virtual Machine (Windows) has 10.0.0.1 o similar...
[19:57] <MindSpark> there's a #%&#^* memory leak in there
[19:57] <WhipsMcGee> Juozapas: can you help me figure it out?  I'm at one of the last steps in this tutorial http://excess.org/docs/linux_windows_printing.html#introduction but I'm getting an error
[19:58] <Cann0n> eduardo, then use NAT option. it will share the internet
[19:58] <MindSpark> I've never ever experienced a program on linux that would freeze the system before
[19:58] <Juozapas> WhipsMcGee:  ubuntu 7.10 ?
[19:58] <eduardo> it was in NAT Cannon
[19:58] <Svenstaro> adac, x64 might be giving you there trobule here
[19:58] <ewook> l
[19:58] <Pawbie> MindScape: Do some at-home tweaking on Madwifi drivers.
[19:58] <eduardo> well it is in NAT now to
[19:58] <Ragzouken> Whilst booting Ubuntu I could see there was a 'modprobe' error of some sort to do with my wireless. Where might I be able to find a copy of this error message? Is there a log I can check?
[19:58] <WhipsMcGee> no, ubuntu server 6
[19:58] <Svenstaro> adac, I had strange problems with that in the past
[19:58] <Cann0n> is the windows settings correct?
[19:58] <jdkarns> Does anyone have an idea what the best computer hardware is to build the most compatible Linux Ubuntu System?
[19:58] <WhipsMcGee> do you know how to do it from the CLI?
[19:58] <Pawbie> Ragzouken: dmesg
[19:58] <SliMM> ok, how do i make my own packages?
[19:59] <Juozapas> WhipsMcGee: ghm... i use 7.10
[19:59] <simplexio> Ragzouken: dmesg
[19:59] <eduardo> in Windows I use Automatic IP
[19:59] <Pawbie> jdkarns: Lenovo T61's actually work amazingly out of the box.
[19:59] <Svenstaro> jdkarns, go with Nvidia, Intel, and a board of your choice :)
[19:59] <Juozapas> WhipsMcGee: in there just add printer ;)
[19:59] <adac> Svenstaro: Yea that could probably be true. 64 bit is one big problem itself it seems
[19:59] <Cann0n> are you on wireless?
[19:59] <Svenstaro> adac, yes it is still :/ sadly
[19:59] <eduardo> not with wire
[19:59] <Elijah_> jdkarns, Try this out --> http://global.msi.com.tw/index.php?func=proddesc&prod_no=1291&maincat_no=130&cat2_no=137
[19:59] <LiquidIKon> I am looking for a app for ubuntu like tcpview any idea
[19:59] <Ragzouken> Pawbie, I tried that, but "dmesg | grep -i 'modprobe'" was unable to find anything, am I searching incorrectly?
[19:59] <WhipsMcGee> Juozapas: probably the same on version 6, but I'm using the server version
[19:59] <adac> Svenstaro: on the other hand also the cleint is 64 bit if this matters somehow
[19:59] <jdkarns> Svenstaro, So really All Intel and Nvidia the
[19:59] <Juozapas> WhipsMcGee: i never used server edition
[20:00] <Elijah_> jdkarns, oops NV
[20:00] <Juozapas> so i think i can help u
[20:00] <Juozapas> *cant
[20:00] <Elijah_> MS only
[20:00] <Toznoshio> LiquidIKon, try netstat -antp
[20:00] <Pawbie> Ragzouken: You can try /var/log/syslog, or just run "modprove -a" from shell and see what happens.
[20:00] <Pawbie> Except, you really should spell modprobe with a B.
[20:00] <Starnestommy> SliMM: check https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGuide/Basic?action=show&redirect=HowToBuildDebianPackagesFromScratch
[20:00] <adac> Svenstaro: I just try out the 386 than we will see
[20:00] <lordleemo> SliMM: start reading good tut here http://www.debian.org/doc/maint-guide/
[20:00] <Ashfire908> Svenstaro: well i have a livecd that i boot and i want to use the usb drive to do the persistent stuff. i saw some thing that suggested that it can be setup only to use it for the home folder would that reduse the wear?
[20:00] <Svenstaro> adac, yup, try a small i386 image and see if that happens to work
[20:01] <Ragzouken> Pawbie, modprobe -a requires a module name I think, it just spits help at me
[20:01] <pan^fester> jdkarns, ati should get better in te future but atm I think Svenstaro is right.
[20:01] <Pawbie> Ashfire908: New flash drives are extremely durable compared to old ones.  My SanDisk drive lasted a year booting Ubuntu, and now I use it to boot WindowsPE at work.
[20:01] <Svenstaro> Ashfire908, I'm not 100% sure if read cycles also destroy the key, but write cycles to for sure, so yes, if read cycles do it no harm then of course it safe to use, I need to read up on that
[20:02] <jdkarns> pan^fester, thanks
[20:03] <jeanmichel> hello!!
[20:03] <amenado> Ashfire908-> whats the mtbf 100,000+  how many of that you think you can do in a given day?
[20:03] <pan^fester> I am no expert , though
[20:04] <Ashfire908> amenado: what's mtbf?
[20:04] <R^3_DevelAdmin> is there something like recycling bin in ubuntu?
[20:04] <adac> Svenstaro: Where can I get a i386 image? with ltsp-build-client it only gets the amd64
[20:04] <amenado> Ashfire908-> mean time between faulting
[20:04] <Svenstaro> R^3_DevelAdmin sure there is
[20:04] <Toznoshio> R^3_DevelAdmin, yes, the .Trash directory
[20:04] <Svenstaro> Ashfire908, mean time between failure
[20:04] <R^3_DevelAdmin> oh thanks
[20:05] <R^3_DevelAdmin> is there a link to it?
[20:05] <R^3_DevelAdmin> i mean somewhere in the menus/desktop
[20:05] <jdkarns> quit
[20:05] <Svenstaro> adac, what exactly do you mean?
[20:05] <Svenstaro> adac, your dhcp server only boots x64?
[20:05] <Ashfire908> amenado: i don't know?
[20:05] <Toznoshio> R^3_DevelAdmin, you can get to it via command line
[20:05] <mechanical> hi
[20:05] <lordleemo> R^3_DevelAdmin: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mean_time_between_failures
[20:05] <Cowlol> this memory test takes forever :(
[20:05] <Svenstaro> R^3_DevelAdmin, theres a small symbol on the default desktop that looks like a bin
[20:05] <adac> Svenstaro: the command ltsp-build-client gets you directly the image...it downloads the packages and install the image
[20:06] <Cowlol> how many passes are there?
[20:06] <Cowlol> or is it up to me?
[20:06] <Cowlol> (boot menu memory test btw)
[20:06] <adac> Svenstaro: This command loads it directly from the internet
[20:06] <Svenstaro> adac, ah, well, you can't make it load i386?
[20:07] <lordleemo> R^3_DevelAdmin:  sorry try that http://www.linux-ha.org/MTBF
[20:07] <adac> Svenstaro: hmm aahhh help HELPS lol  --dist                     Set the distribution to be used for install
[20:07] <amenado> Ashfire908-> so good enuff for 3 years at least
[20:07] <Cowlol> About the boot memory test: does it actually end or do I end it?
[20:07] <puller> can somone give me mencoder help?
[20:08] <adac> Svenstaro: read first then ask...i foret this sometimes
[20:08] <Svenstaro> adac, :)
[20:08] <Ashfire908> amenado: with booting the livecd and using the drive for persistence?
[20:08] <MindSpark> I've been using linux since 1997
[20:08] <amenado> Ashfire908-> yes
[20:08] <MindSpark> this is the second time it ever crashed on me
[20:08] <MindSpark> because of firefox !!!!
[20:08] <MindSpark> what the hell's wrong with this thing ?
[20:08] <Ashfire908> amenado: that's more then enough. i only need this until sunday.
[20:09] <Cowlol> Again, I'm having a problem installing Ubuntu 7.10 from live CD (32 bit desktop), I've verified the iso and tried burning several times but it always freezes on boot screen (while loading linux kernel). Adding noapic option stops it from freezing but only gets me a restricted xterm mode. Removing quiet and spalsh options also have the same effect. I'm using an acer with intel 965PM motherboard and core 2 duo processor. Other options I tried are all-generic-
[20:09] <r3n0c> hey, when i plug in my headphones my speakers still play, both play sound
[20:09] <noodlesgc> Cowlol why not use the alternate cd?
[20:09] <Svenstaro> Cowlol, whats your graphics card?
[20:09] <adac> Svenstaro: uhh it needs some time to download i hate this hiperlan wireless provider...well I will tell you later if it worked
[20:09] <Ashfire908> amenado: thanks
[20:09] <Cann0n> MindSpark, then don't sue firefox. there are other browsers that score higher on the acid3 tests
[20:09] <Svenstaro> adac, alright, good luck
[20:09] <Cowlol> Geforce 8600M GS
[20:10] <MindSpark> Cann0n, what do you recommend ?
[20:10] <Svenstaro> Cowlol, I get the same issues with a series 8 nvidia :)
[20:10] <Svenstaro> Cowlol, remove splash and quit from the grub menu
[20:10] <Svenstaro> Cowlol, or use hardy, it works
[20:10] <Svenstaro> Its a usplash issue not fixed in 7.10
[20:10] <Cann0n> Safari rated high, but i use firefox. It hasn't caused any problems with me yet.
[20:10] <adac> Svenstaro: thx, and thanks for your advices!
[20:11] <r3n0c> anybody know why when i plug in my headphones the main speakers still play?
[20:11] <Cowlol> Svenstaro: I did remove them, it works but only gets me into some restricted xterm mode
[20:11] <Svenstaro> Cowlol, do you mena you can boot console or get busybox?
[20:11] <big__kik> Bonsoir.
[20:11] <big__kik> Hi.
[20:12] <moDumass> hey all, system update, now everything uber slow especially internet, have changed IPv6 to IPv4
[20:12] <moDumass> any other ideas?
[20:12] <r3n0c> why are my speakers still playing after i plug in headphones
[20:12] <puller> can somone help me with mencoder?
[20:12] <Cann0n> lol r3n0c i had the same problem. it went away after a while.
[20:12] <Cowlol> Svenstaro: I get through booting and then to a login screen but when I login it tells me it can only run in xterm and i get a small terminal and can move my mouse
[20:12] <r3n0c> Cann0n, lol great.... didn't change anything tho?
[20:13] <Svenstaro> Cowlol, ah thats good, kill X and using links or lynx download the newest nvidia drivers
[20:13] <MindSpark> Cann0n, safari for linux ?
[20:13] <Ashfire908> amenado: what about using ext2 or ext3? do the advantages over ext2 that make up for the wear from the journaling?
[20:13] <Cann0n> i didnt change anything directly. something might have changed during an update or Amarok being isntalled
[20:13] <Svenstaro> Cowlol, install them and let nvidia configure your xorg.conf, startx again and youre good to go
[20:13] <rinaldi_> puller: you will get an answer quicker if you state what your problem is
[20:13] <frank23> can someone try to ping gulus.usherbrooke.ca  for me. it's my mirror and I can't connect to it right now
[20:14] <Svenstaro> Ashfire908, just found out, reading cycles dont destroy the usbkey, only write and erease cycles do, also when your stick gets old it will get slow
[20:14] <Cowlol> Svenstaro: Thanks, I'll try that. xkill and apt-get, right?
[20:14] <Svenstaro> Cowlol, not quite, how experienced are you?
[20:14] <puller> rinaldi_: when i converted a .wmv movie to an mpeg movie and transfered it to my mad, the mac wouldnt play it...
[20:14] <Cowlol> Svenstaro: not very
[20:14] <puller> rinaldi_: i meant .mpg
[20:15] <genii> frank23: Yeah I'm getting a black hole there too right now. Try perhaps instead debian.yorku.ca
[20:15] <Svenstaro> Cowlol, thats okay, we'll use envy in that case, when you are in the xterm, type firefox
[20:15] <Ashfire908> Svenstaro: already looked it up, and i sort knew that only writes are damainging beofre i lookewd it up
[20:15] <wshaddix> does anyone know if there are plans to update to the 2.6.25 kernel for ubuntu 8.04?
[20:15] <lordleemo> frank23: pkts trans 6 pkts received nil
[20:15] <frank23> genii: ok
[20:15] <rinaldi_> puller: im no expert on mencoder, just saying you should say your problem first. Is it possible you don't have mpg codecs installed? have you tried any other mpg videos?
[20:15] <Svenstaro> Cowlol, using firefox browse to http://www.albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html or use google and search for "envy"
[20:15] <frank23> genii: lordleemo thanks
[20:16] <puller> rinaldi_: how can i install mpg codeces?
[20:16] <Ragzouken> Are these things anything to be worried about? http://pastebin.com/mb7388da
[20:16] <Svenstaro> Cowlol, then just download the envy deb, and using xterm stilll, type "sudo dpkg -i envy*"
[20:16] <hischild> !envy
[20:16] <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 »
[20:17] <Cann0n> MindSpark, woops. forgot. Try a different version of FireFox or get a Mozilla Suite
[20:17] <Svenstaro> Cowlol, then envy will be installed from the package you just downloaded, after that simply type "sudo envy" and it will install your driver
[20:17] <BlackChaos> hi, i just installed ubuntu yesterday so this is my first time using linux and so im still trying 2 get used 2 it, i am installing some appz via add/remove and when i was installing them this message came up and now it always come up when i wanna update or im downloading appz : the message tells me that i must insert the ubuntu 7.10 gutsy gibbon disk and some other stuff y does this come up
[20:17] <dead> good evening ppl... does someone know where i can find some drivers for my Creative Audigy Soundcard?
[20:17] <MindSpark> I guess
[20:17] <Cowlol> Svenstaro: I'll try that once (if) it gets through countless buffer I/O errors
[20:17] <Svenstaro> dead, alsa will do
[20:17] <dead> k, i try that
[20:17] <Pawbie> BlackChaos: Take the CD in your repository list.
[20:18] <Svenstaro> Cowlol, I get those myself in this constellation sadly, try 8.04
[20:18] <genii> dead: It should be using the emu10k1 driver normally
[20:18] <rinaldi_> puller: i don't have a mac so i wouldn't know how to go about it at all. Try downloading an .mpg off somewhere and see if it works. Usually if a video doesn't work I always try it in vlc,  especially that vlc in mac and windows comes wiith the codecs built in
[20:18] <BlackChaos> what do youmean Pawbie
[20:18] <Ashfire908> how do i disable auto mounting of drives?
[20:18] <puller> does anyoen know how to convert videos usign mencoder?
[20:19] <Svenstaro> Ashfire908, go to System -> Settings -> removable media
[20:19] <styrman> BlackChaos: i think its cause you installed some very low level, stuff, cause it has only happend to me once and thats when i tried to change splashimage :)
[20:20] <Cowlol> Svenstaro: Nah I think it's just because I used the acpi=noirq option, I didn't get them with just removing splash and quiet
[20:20] <Ashfire908> Svenstaro: thanks i knew about that entry in the menu but never looked at it. i've been looking for how to turn it off for a long time :)
[20:20] <rinaldi_> puller: if you can't get an answer, try in #mplayer or #mencoder
[20:20] <dgjones> r3n0c, out of interest, what laptop is it that you've got the sound problem with?
[20:21] <r3n0c> dgjones, toshiba satelite
[20:21] <arturo> alguien habla español
[20:21] <Cann0n> dgjones, i had the same issue with a presario r3k
[20:21] <arturo> jodete
[20:21] <Svenstaro> So can anybody help my find out how to properly construct your own Ubuntu Live CD?
[20:21] <r3n0c> none of the forums have a solution :(
[20:22] <dgjones> r3n0c, try this, double click the volume control icon in the top right, select Edit and look to see if there's a check box for a "headphone jack sense" setting, that might be the answer

[20:22] <ProbeDot> I have a system installed already, and am about to put in another disk.  Can i do a software raid 1 on an already installed system?
[20:22] <tuvook> ProbeDot, yes
[20:22] <r3n0c> dgjones,  lol, thats a negative: only thing sin there: Master, PCM, CallerId, Digital, Off-hook
[20:23] <bluebanana> If www.somesite.com is known as a domain, what do you call www.somesite.com/thishere/ ?
[20:23] <Svenstaro> ProbeDot, always do a backup first :)
[20:23] <Cann0n> r3n0c, edit > prefs
[20:23] <bluebanana> Is it called a subdomain?
[20:23] <Starnestommy> bluebanana: a path or url
[20:23] <bmk789> will burning a 2GB ISO to 4.7GB DVD result in a different md5 due to the free space than the 2GB ISO's md5?
[20:23] <r3n0c> Cann0n, yea, there
[20:23] <dgjones> r3n0c, i've seen that suggested as a solution for compaq/hp laptops, maybe the toshiba is the same
[20:23] <styrman> For those that has an issue with delayed theme loading, and default skin showing briefly you can create .gtkrc-2.0 and add your theme there with: gtk-theme-name="<your theme>" and it fixes it :)

[20:24] <bluebanana> Svenstaro, Starnestommy: thanks. Everyone else: sorry, i meant to post this in offtopic
[20:24] <csh-harmful> bmk789: depends on how you calculating md5 of disc
[20:24] <jnkq> How to block this kind of imformations <<<< has quit (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
[20:24] <lordleemo> bmk789: certainly not
[20:24] <ProbeDot> Svenstaro thanks
[20:24] <Starnestommy> jnkq: depends on which client you use
[20:24] <Cann0n> r3n0c, Headphone Jack Sense
[20:24] <bmk789> csh-harmful: are there different ways to find the md5?
[20:24] <dgjones> r3n0c, right, my laptop doesn't have it either, but i don't have a problem with it, can't think of anything else, sorry about that
[20:24] <styrman> I still have an issue with my bootsplash, i've got a .config file from gnome-look and not sure how to use it, it contains settings i need to set. The tutorial i've only found changes only the image
[20:24] <r3n0c> dgjones, Cann0n  lol there is no option for me, jack sense      T.T
[20:24] <csh-harmful> bmk789: of WHOLE DVD or TRACk - so yes
[20:25] <r3n0c> dgjones, Cann0n :( and it used to work, something made it decide to hate me

[20:25] <Cann0n> hmmm mines the 4 options. thats odd. i guess it was a sound lib somewhere i accidentally installed.
[20:25] <lordleemo> csh-harmful: souds good not herad that before you got a link i can read
[20:25] <Cann0n> lol
[20:26] <bmk789> csh-harmful: so "md5sum image.iso" and "md5sum /dev/dvd" could be different?
[20:26] <csh-harmful> bmk789: yes
[20:26] <bmk789> csh-harmful: thank you
[20:26] <csh-harmful> bmk789: grab only first track and then do md5

[20:27] <freebird_> hi
[20:27] <fabouney> i have a question
[20:27] <csh-harmful> bmk789: even in case you have only one track
[20:27] <fabouney> i have installed a LAMP environnement
[20:27] <fabouney> i've created a index.php that will display phpinfo()
[20:27] <fabouney> when i try to launch a php script wich does not exists
[20:28] <fabouney> i have always the phpinfo page
[20:28] <r3n0c> when i mute PCM all sound stops, including the headphones
[20:28] <jin> fabouney: incorrect doc root
[20:28] <fabouney> ok jin
[20:28] <Cowlol> Svenstaro: Now I can't get through the boot menu at all, even when removing quiet and splash, or adding noapic. It used to work :(
[20:28] <Ashfire908> fabouney: you could have some rule that redirects/uses the index.php for 404.
[20:29] <Pawbie> fabouney: Check your webroot for .htaccess
[20:29] <fabouney> it's normal, because it's the default configuration
[20:29] <fabouney> ?
[20:29] <adamb> WHat flags should I used with mount to mount a cdrom?  it doesn't detect my file on the cd by default.. anyone?

[20:30] <sarthor> Hi, my fdisk -l is here, now i am login on ubutnu live cd, in safe mode, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60198/ my my ubuntu is not there any more, when i reinstalled xp, Help me please
[20:30] <moDumass> ubuntu has slowed down to crawl, i want my fast beloved comp back
[20:30] <dgjones> !grub | sarthor
[20:30] <ubotu> sarthor: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[20:30] <Cann0n> moDumass, whats wrong? graphics?
[20:32] <sarthor> dgjones: i check and tried a lot, but all useless. i am wasting my time since about 7 hrs.
[20:32] <Scunizi> How do I find out the scan codes on specific keys on my keyboard?
[20:32] <neonprophet> can anyone tell me what "mount: unknown filesystem type '-o'" is supposed to mean?
[20:32] <Starnestommy> neonprophet: you probably got the parameters in the wrong order
[20:32] <moDumass> Cann0n no, gra[phics are fine, internet is almost dialup speed
[20:32] <Cann0n> neonprophet, it doesnt recognized the filesystem
[20:32] <dgjones> sarthor, are the partitions still there for ubuntu, or did the windows install completely wipe the hard drive,
[20:33] <neonprophet> I get that when I use "sudo mount -a"
[20:33] <moDumass> and shutdown takes about 10 mins
[20:33] <sarthor> dgjones: you can see there i have pasted http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60198/
[20:33] <sarthor> dgjones: ubuntu is still safe
[20:33] <Cann0n> moDumass, hmm. i dont know. try a memtest

[20:35] <metalforever> are any of you willing to give me a hand in configuring my sound?  it would be greatly appreciated
[20:35] <Penth> is there an ubuntu equivalent of apt-get install foomatic-bin ?
[20:35] <Jack_Sparrow> metalforever, do you get any sounds at all, did it ever work?
[20:35] <rinaldi_> !ask | metalforever
[20:35] <ubotu> metalforever: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-)
[20:35] <dgjones> sarthor, when you reinstalled windows, that will have over written your boot sector removing the pointer to grub on the ubuntu partition, all i can suggest is following the link ubotu gave to resintall grub, or ask again here for somebody who's good reinstalling grub
[20:36] <Cowlol> I guess I'll give up trying to install ubuntu altogether :(
[20:36] <metalforever> im sorry, i dont usually visit the ubuntu IRC chat.  now i know.
[20:36] <Starnestommy> Cowlol: have you tried the alternate CD?
[20:36] <Jack_Sparrow> Cowlol, Some hardware just needs the alternate cd
[20:36] <Jack_Sparrow> metalforever, do you get any sounds at all, did it ever work?
[20:36] <Pawbie> Cowlol: Virtualize it!
[20:36] <sarthor> dgjones: ok. i am already on the link.
[20:36] <metalforever> yes, with every distro but debian.
[20:37] <Jack_Sparrow> metalforever, do you get any sounds at all, did it ever work? In ubuntu
[20:37] <whitehat_> hey people! BIT of a funny story windows dosen't reconize my ethernet but linux does
[20:37] <Cowlol> Jack_Sparrow, Starnestommy: I might give it a try, but I'm on dial up and it'd take a while
[20:37] <Jack_Sparrow> metalforever, Fixing sound.. download this: http://hg.alsa-project.org/alsa/raw-file/tip/alsa-info.sh  #and run the script as Normal User... with this command: bash ./alsa-info.sh  ... then go to http://en.pastebin.ca/906336 and answer those questions ..  then  /join #Alsa and provide them with your question and a link to the uploaded file.
[20:37] <Bob_Dole> Linux is much better with hardware than linux is
[20:37] <metalforever> alsaconf is installed, i ran it, it detects my card etc etc, but no good.
[20:37] <Jack_Sparrow> Cowlol, they will send you a cd for free
[20:37] <metalforever> sure.
[20:37] <Bob_Dole> windows* for that second bit
[20:37] <ompaul> !sound | metalforever
[20:37] <ubotu> metalforever: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[20:38] <Cowlol> Jack_Sparrow: I've ordered one a few weeks ago but I hear it takes up to 10 weeks
[20:38] <Jack_Sparrow> Cowlol, usually less..  but it will get there
[20:38] <metalforever> its selected, and no its not muted.
[20:38] <whitehat_> how do I search for wifi?
[20:38] <Princess_Mary> hello
[20:39] <Jack_Sparrow> metalforever, run this command: speaker-test -c2 -Ddefault -t wav -l1
[20:39] <ompaul> !wifi | whitehat_
[20:39] <ubotu> whitehat_: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[20:39] <metalforever> i ran speaker test.
[20:39] <fabouney> somebody use, Flex builder or Zend Studio IDE ?
[20:39] <metalforever> it shows that i have working speakers.
[20:39] <whitehat_> thanks
[20:39] <Pawbie> Cowlol: So what happened?  You installed 7.10, works great, now it won't boot?
[20:39] <frutax> I found the solution for this somewhere before but I've since reinstalled and forgotten it: if i've installed sun-java5-jdk and sun-java5-jre through aptitude, how do i get my system to use that version of java? when i run java -version I still get gij (libgcj) 4.1.2
[20:39] <whitehat_> how do I enable diffrent compiz options like the cube?
[20:39] <metalforever> he probably tried recompiling the kernel.
[20:39] <Cowlol> let me find it Pawbie
[20:39] <Cowlol> Svenstaro: I get through booting and then to a login screen but when I login it tells me it can only run in xterm and i get a small terminal and can move my mouse
[20:39] <Cowlol> err
[20:40] <Cowlol> Again, I'm having a problem installing Ubuntu 7.10 from live CD (32 bit desktop), I've verified the iso and tried burning several times but it always freezes on boot screen (while loading linux kernel). Adding noapic option stops it from freezing but only gets me a restricted xterm mode. Removing quiet and spalsh options also have the same effect. I'm using an acer with intel 965PM motherboard and core 2 duo processor. Other options I tried are all-generic-
[20:40] <Jack_Sparrow> metalforever, so that gave you some sound?
[20:40] <Cowlol> there
[20:40] <Pawbie> whitehat_: You have to install the compiz settings package.

[20:42] <mustafa_> Hi... I have ASUS F3E...... I just installed ubuntu but I dont know how to run the webcam
[20:42] <mustafa_> anyhelp?
[20:42] <Pawbie> Cowlol: It's no apCI
[20:42] <metalforever> okay.  i tried modprobing my sound drivers too. apparently they exist, but nope
[20:42] <metalforever> not working.
[20:42] <deo_> any one using linux mint?
[20:42] <metalforever> any other ideas?
[20:42] <sarthor>  there is not boot partiton or boot loader, that washed i think, What to do now??
[20:43] <kumarphilly> !language
[20:43] <ompaul> deo_, they should have their own channel
[20:43] <ubotu> Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly.
[20:43] <rinaldi_> whitehat_: you need to install compizconfig-settings-manager
[20:43] <jpatrick> !mint | deo_
[20:43] <ubotu> deo_: The following are some examples of Ubuntu derived distributions that we cannot provide support for due to repository and software changes, please consult their websites for more information: gNewSense (support in #gnewsense), Linux Mint (support in #linuxmint), LinuxMCE (support in #linuxmce), Ubuntu Ultimate
[20:44] <Cowlol> Pawbie: It is noapic, apci=off is another option i think
[20:44] <kumarphilly> i tried ubuntu ultimiate
[20:44] <kumarphilly> and i hated it
[20:44] <metalforever> !ask  Sound is still not working.  I have tried alsaconf, i checked my speakers, i modprobed, i made sure all sound processes were terminated when running alsaconf, and i made sure my stuff isnt muted.
[20:44] <Svenstaro> Cowlol, you managed to boot again?
[20:44] <ompaul> kumarphilly, that would "offtopic" ;-)
[20:44] <kumarphilly> oops
[20:44] <metalforever> help?
[20:44] <Scunizi> anyone use a Logitech Wave? Any hints on getting the additional keys functional? Keytouch is driving me nuts..
[20:44] <kumarphilly> but im just saying.... its not easy to use..
[20:44] <Jack_Sparrow> metalforever, Did you get sound running the command I gave you
[20:45] <Cowlol> Svenstaro: now it won't get through loading linux kernel (original problem), even with quiet and splash options removed
[20:45] <Svenstaro> ow
[20:45] <Pawbie> Cowlol: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-software-2/difference-between-noapic-and-acpioff-kernel-parameters-454675/
[20:45] <filloy> Darn, using partitionmagic to change from vfat to ntfs there was a short circuit so now i have a pretty messed up hard drive. Can anyone help me fix it?
[20:45] <whitehat_> I just installed the compiz manger could someone please tell me how to start it
[20:45] <genii> quiet and splash options have no impact on what the kernel is doing when it boots.
[20:45] <metalforever> Jack_Sparrow : no.
[20:45] <Jack_Sparrow> Pawbie, noapic  and noacpi
[20:46] <Jack_Sparrow> Pawbie, noapic  and acpi=off rather
[20:46] <kumarphilly> why are tehre 2 FloodBots
[20:46] <metalforever> Jack_Sparrow : any other ideas?
[20:46] <jpatrick> kumarphilly: backups
[20:46] <Pawbie> Jack_Sparrow: Ya, I want to make sure he's using the right one.
[20:46] <rinaldi_> whitehat_: system -- preferences -- advanced desktop effects
[20:46] <filloy> isnt there like a hdd fix utility?
[20:46] <Jack_Sparrow> metalforever, you heard nothing when you ran those.?
[20:46] <kumarphilly> whats the odds of one breaking
[20:46] <metalforever> wait.
[20:46] <Svenstaro> Cowlol, did you try using acpi_timer_override?
[20:46] <whitehat_> thanks
[20:47] <metalforever> imight have missed something, do you mid pasting what you told me to do again
[20:47] <Jack_Sparrow> metalforever, aplay -vv /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Left.wav
[20:47] <jpatrick> kumarphilly: what are the odds of one getting lost in a netsplit?
[20:47] <Jack_Sparrow> is another one to try
[20:47] <metalforever> okay, sure.
[20:47] <kumarphilly> netsplit?
[20:47] <Cowlol> Pawbie: Interesting, but noapic used to solve my problem and pci=off didn't
[20:47] <Jack_Sparrow> metalforever, speaker-test -c2 -Ddefault -t wav -l1    was the first one
[20:48] <sarthor> Hi, my fdisk -l is here, now i am login on ubutnu live cd, in safe mode, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60198/ my my ubuntu is not there any more, when i reinstalled xp, Help me please
[20:48] <Svenstaro> jpatrick, depends on the node you are on, if a cluster reboots and you're on it, youre a goner
[20:48] <sarthor>  there is not boot partiton or boot loader, that washed i think, What to do now??
[20:48] <metalforever> Jack_Sparrow, PM.
[20:48] <Cowlol> Svenstaro: a boot option?
[20:48] <Svenstaro> Cowlol, yes
[20:48] <jpatrick> !netsplit > kumarphilly
[20:48] <Jack_Sparrow> sure
[20:48] <Starnestommy> kumarphilly: it's when two or more irc servers split from each other
[20:48]  * Cowlol tries
[20:48] <Pawbie> Cowlol: Oh. :\  Sorry, then.  Don't give up. ;)  afk
[20:48] <kumarphilly> ahh
[20:48] <Svenstaro> Cowlol, is this x64 or i386 were talking bout?
[20:49] <Cowlol> Svenstaro: i386
[20:49] <Svenstaro> good
[20:49] <Svenstaro> Cowlol, do yourself a favor and try 8.04 just for fun
[20:50] <Cowlol> Svenstaro: also no luck with acpi_timer_override
[20:50] <Jack_Sparrow> Metal_Militia, I hate it when someone complains and complains.. then I figure out they are not even using ubuntu...
[20:50] <Cowlol> Svenstaro: I'm on dial-up and it'd take some time to download that :<
[20:50] <Jack_Sparrow> Metalforever, I hate it when someone complains and complains.. then I figure out they are not even using ubuntu...
[20:50] <Svenstaro> Cowlol, ow :S
[20:50] <metalforever> debian.
[20:50] <can-o-worms> can someone tell me how to reinstall something with all it's dependencies?
[20:51] <metalforever> and i have someone that is ahving the same issues in ubuntu- anyway.
[20:51] <Cowlol> Svenstaro: How stable is 8.04?
[20:51] <Svenstaro> Cowlol, its just that this is known issue which was kinda fixed now, but 7.10 doesnt contain the fixes yet
[20:51] <Jack_Sparrow> metalforever, They are NOT the same...
[20:51] <Svenstaro> Cowlol, last time I tried, 2 months ago, it was fairly stable
[20:51] <Svenstaro> Cowlol, sometimes some gdaemon app would crash but thats okay, mostly stuff not really important
[20:52] <Jack_Sparrow> Cowlol, Dont go there yet
[20:52] <Cowlol> Svenstaro: I don't know, I'm really just starting with linux and I'm not sure if I should be exxperimenting yet
[20:52] <metalforever> Jack_Sparrow: all distros are probably about 95% the same.  I have built LFS, i have used gentoo, i have used slackware.  once you use 30-40, they all begin to feel the same anyway.
[20:52] <binarical> experimentation releases the mind
[20:52] <Svenstaro> Cowlol, you'll end up with a lot more experimentation if youre going for 7.10, our hardware setup (mine is very similiar) just doesnt do here
[20:53] <Cowlol> Svenstaro: I guess that's a good point

[21:10] <InfoHunteR> Cowlo1@ Have Fun :d

[21:14] <captaingeek> does anyone know about gdm?
[21:14] <binarical> capitaingeek: what is the window thing
[21:14] <captaingeek> the windows decoration or manager
[21:14] <InfoHunteR> kane7@ ok install it from sourceCode :)
[21:14] <Svenstaro> whitehat_, install "gparted"
[21:14] <binarical> !gdm
[21:14] <captaingeek> whatever compiz is
[21:14] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gdm - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
 graphics tend to go for a little while, and well there jsut seem to be things that need fixing everytime i do a distro version change
[21:14] <sarthor> Svenstaro, ok, changed, restarting, i will be here soon ..
[21:15] <whitehat_> oh,ok,but after I partion is there any way to unpartion it?
[21:15] <binarical> > gdm stands for gnome desktop manager.
[21:15] <PeterGriffin> BlackChaos: you can download it from a repository if you want
[21:15] <berlylabs> anyone ever used quagga rip or zebra
[21:15] <Svenstaro> whitehat_, delete the partition you mean?
[21:15] <whitehat_> yeah, make it go back to the other disk
[21:15] <pushpop> what argument would I use with the "man" command to display the entire content with out pagging down, as if I would cat a file it would show the entire contents at once??
[21:16] <whitehat_> so that it will just be one partion again
[21:16] <sarixe> hi, is there a way to block nm-applet from connecting to certain networks?
[21:16] <Svenstaro> whitehat_, I still am not exactly sure what you want to accomplish, I wont advice you on partitioning stuff as long as Im not exactly sure :)
[21:16] <binarical> capitaingeek: i think that perhaps you are trying to get the newest version of compiz so that it will load with ubuntu tweak?
[21:16] <RichW> Anyone here that owns Logitech G25 steering wheel?
[21:16] <BlackChaos> i downloaded it already but for intruction 4 as i pasted it asked me 2 go in to terminal and cd dir where my vmware that i downloaded is at but i dont know wat 2 put
[21:16] <berlylabs> anyone here know why rip might not forward learned routes, but will forward connected routes?
[21:16] <BlackChaos> its in my desktop so do i put : cd dir/desktop???
[21:16] <jepeltw> good afternoon all, is there a reason that my Mythbuntu server would disk thrash continuously after a system update?
[21:17] <whitehat_> Ok, I am wanting to make a hardrive split into two with gparted. and install a diff OS on other pation I just made. is there anyway I can then format the other partion and then make it go back to one hardrive again?
[21:17] <PeterGriffin> BlackChaos: if it is on your desktop you should see it, anyway in a terminal you can type cd ~/Desktop to go there
[21:18] <Svenstaro> whitehat_, you mean like you had 2 partitions, now you dont want that anymore and kill 1 partition and make partition 2 use all the space for itself?
[21:18] <ProbeDot> do you know if its possible to tell irssi to save the servers iam connected to and the channels iam in into its config file? so it would automaticaly reconnect and join those channels if i start irssi?
[21:18] <whitehat_> yes, yes, yes,
[21:18] <BlackChaos> ok thxalot peterGriffin
[21:18] <whitehat_> that's exactly what I want
[21:18] <PeterGriffin> BlackChaos: what version of ubuntu do you run ?
[21:18] <Svenstaro> whitehat_, okay, for that matter get the gparted livecd, you need to do this offline without an actual OS running
[21:19] <Svenstaro> whitehat_ just boot it, the rest will be obvious
[21:19] <Cowlo1> Svenstaro: It won't let me dpkg envy because it depends on module-assistant and others
[21:19] <BlackChaos> 7.10 gutsy gibbon i just installed it yesterday so its my first time ever running linux
[21:19] <InfoHunteR> kane7@ check this : http://tombuntu.com/index.php/2008/03/11/install-firefox-3-beta-4-in-ubuntu-with-one-command/
[21:19] <BlackChaos> so im still getting used to it
[21:19] <Svenstaro> Cowlo1, you need to manually hunt those down im afraid, just install em all
[21:19] <berlylabs> anyone here know why rip might not forward learned routes, but will forward connected routes?
[21:19] <Svenstaro> Cowlo1, using apt-get install package name of course
[21:20] <Pawbie> Cowlol got booted?
[21:20] <binarical> berlylabs: what do you know about the problem
[21:20] <PeterGriffin> BlackChaos: ok ! great! i remembered i had to patch the vmware source before i got it to work (on ubuntu 7.04 that is)
[21:20] <Cowlo1> Svenstaro: Uh... that's my welcome to ubuntu I guess
[21:20] <br0ck3r> hi
[21:20] <Cowlo1> Pawbie: Yeah, at last!
[21:20] <br0ck3r> i am new in linux
[21:20] <Svenstaro> Cowlo1 at least you dont have to download them all manually :P
[21:21] <br0ck3r> i want install beryl
[21:21] <Svenstaro> Cowlo1, oh wait, me stupid, type this sudo apt-get install -f
[21:21] <br0ck3r> help..
[21:21] <whitehat_> no!!!!!!!!!!
[21:21] <whitehat_> I just fed up
[21:21] <Svenstaro> whitehat_ I hope its not my fault
[21:21] <rinaldi_> br0ck3r: there is no beryl for ubuntu, it is compiz fusion
[21:21] <Svenstaro> whitehat_ what did you do?
[21:21] <RichW> br0ck3r: You dont need beryl, ubuntu comes with compiz.. for more effects search for compizconfig in package manager
[21:21] <whitehat_> something bad......
[21:22] <BlackChaos> dam i cant seem to do it
[21:22] <br0ck3r> k
[21:22] <binarical> berlylabs: perhaps it has something to do with cookie like thingys
[21:22] <PeterGriffin> BlackChaos: this is what i did on a 7.04 box :  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60217/
[21:22] <Cowlo1> Svenstaro: I have to also install the dependencies of each package that envy depends on... it's recursive!
[21:22] <Svenstaro> Cowlo1 sudo apt-get install -f does it
[21:22] <Svenstaro> Cowlo1 it should fetch all the depencies
[21:22] <whitehat_> lol my laptop still has it's vista sticker! :)
[21:23] <jepeltw> I took the Windows XP sticker off my laptop
[21:23] <Pawbie> Cowlo1: If everything worked right the first time, you wouldn't learn anything.
[21:23] <Svenstaro> Cowlo1, make sure you have all repos enabled
[21:23] <jepeltw> a bit of violence was needed but it was worth it
[21:23] <whitehat_> mines funny
[21:23] <binarical> cowlo1 > instead of using apt-get use aptitude install
[21:23] <BlackChaos> PeterGriffin i have this is this good
[21:23] <BlackChaos> VMware Server (Run Windows and Windows applications in Ubuntu 7.10)
[21:23] <BlackChaos> 1.) Register for a VMware Server serial number here.
[21:23] <BlackChaos> 2.) from terminal “sudo apt-get install build-essential”
[21:23] <BlackChaos> 3.) download VMware Server for Linux - Binary (.tar.gz) here.
[21:23] <BlackChaos> 4.) from terminal cd dir to the downloaded file and type “tar zvxf VMware-server-1.0.4-56528.tar.gz”
[21:23] <FloodBot2> BlackChaos: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[21:23] <BlackChaos> 5.) from terminal “cd vmware-server-distrib/”
[21:23] <whitehat_> I like my sticker mine
[21:23] <BlackChaos> ohsrry bout that
[21:23] <InfoHunteR> BlackChaos @  use virtualbox.org
[21:24] <ploum> Hello
[21:24] <archangelpetro> does anyone here know how i can set to use 'libwxgtk2.8-0' instead of libwxgtk2.6-0' ??
[21:24] <whitehat_> if any of you have xbox 360s i have good news
[21:24] <ploum> I'm trying to install bongo in an apache2 VirtualHost
[21:24] <ploum> on mail.frispeech.com
[21:24] <ploum> any success report about that ?
[21:24] <spz> how can i update from 7.04 to 7.10 ?
[21:24] <ploum> oups
[21:24] <ploum> wrong channel
[21:24] <whitehat_> hey anyway....where can I download the ubuntu live disk!!!
[21:25] <binarical> spz: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade > at your own funeral
[21:25] <Pawbie> whitehat_: The installer and the live disc are the same thing.
[21:25] <lordleemo> BlackChaos: vmware server is in synaptics  sudo apt-get install vmware-server or use synaptics to install it
[21:25] <BlackChaos> check if this is good for me to follow PeterGriffin : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60218/
[21:25] <Cowlo1> Pawbie: I guess, but we might as well go back to command line to force users to learn everything
[21:25] <Cowlo1> Svenstaro: How do I enable them?
[21:25] <BlackChaos> oh really
[21:25] <jepeltw> binarical, dist-upgrade won't upgrade to a new release if you don't change sources.list, no?
[21:25] <Svenstaro> Cowlo1, do you have synaptic availbile?
[21:25] <Cowlo1> binarical: aptitude install is a shell command?
[21:25] <whitehat_> well, how do I make it go to live disk insted of installing!
[21:26] <BlackChaos> wow thx alot lordleemo and here i am doing it the long way thx alot :)
[21:26] <dylan_> can anyone help me remember the name of a program?
[21:26] <Svenstaro> sure dylan_
[21:26] <dylan_> it's some thing to launch applications, and it comes up as a grey box in the middle of the screen, I believe with rounded corners
[21:26] <binarical> jepltw: i dont know , but the syntax of the command goes against the logic dosnt it
[21:26] <dylan_> I think it's keyboard-activated
[21:26] <Cowlo1> Svenstaro: Synaptic isn't working because I'm still on liveCD
[21:26] <Cowlo1> or maybe for some other reason idk
[21:26] <Toznoshio> dylan_, Alt + F2
[21:26] <koshari> whitehat do you have a live disc instead of an alternative install disc??
[21:27] <whitehat_> I don't know I just downloaded directly off ubuntu
[21:27] <Svenstaro> Cowlo1, okay, "gedit /etc/apt/sources.list" and uncomment them all
[21:27] <whitehat_> where it says download
[21:27] <PeterGriffin> BlackChaos: i had to patch it first to make it work like : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60217/   but yes ! it is in repository as i stated before :) :) good luck
[21:27] <whitehat_> someone give me a link
[21:27] <dylan_> no no, this one has a specific GUI. I think you can also interact with other programs, or search for files with it
[21:27] <jepeltw> binarical, I distinctly recall having to go into sources.list and change everything to the latest release, then doing aptitude update && aptitude dist-upgrade. I also then remember praying a lot that it would succeed
[21:27] <dylan_> for some reason I remember it being called the "Do Project", but I may be way off with that
[21:27] <InfoHunteR> whitehat_ @ http://mirror.csclub.uwaterloo.ca/ubuntu-releases/7.10/ubuntu-7.10-desktop-i386.iso
[21:27] <Toznoshio> dylan_, you mean nautilus?
[21:27] <Svenstaro> Cowlo1, sorry, of course sudo that command
[21:28] <InfoHunteR> burn to Cd and Boot it , then Enjoy
[21:28] <whitehat_> thanks
[21:28] <InfoHunteR> u are welcome
[21:28] <whitehat_> i'm makeing a progrma for ppl with 360s
[21:28] <binarical>  jepeltw: it worked for my server, but i never managed to keep a DE on long enough to actually need to dist-upgrade. but i agree with you ... your right
[21:28] <dylan_> no, just an app launcher that lets you interact with other programs. The main thing I remember is that when you bring it up it's a box in the middle of the screen and changes in real-time to what you're typing

[21:43] <rinaldi_> jake2point0:  what does it say?
[21:43] <Christoz> anyone?
[21:43] <Penth> I'm pretty sure I am using cups
[21:43] <itaku> how can i make mp3's accessable on apache2... cuz when i go to a mp3 file atm it says 403
[21:44] <Penth> but it uses samba to make the connection to the printer, right?
[21:44] <Svenstaro> patrick_ which command did you use before? which guide did you follow to install it?
[21:44] <danand> Penth - have you enabled the printer in samba?
[21:44] <clearzen> Penth: does it give you an error when you try to print?
[21:44] <jake2point0> rinaldi ndiswrapper -l dont say anything
[21:44] <pushpop> PeterGriffin it has be done with an argument
[21:44] <patrick_> svenstaro i have 7.10 compiz fusion comes with it
[21:44] <InfoHunteR> Christoz@ ask :)
[21:44] <BlackChaos> oh ok i see that k thx alot jake2pointo i appreciate it
[21:44] <Svenstaro> patrick_, yes, so you didnt do anything actually?
[21:44] <itaku> how can i make mp3's accessable on apache2... cuz when i go to a mp3 file atm its 403
[21:44] <jake2point0> cool i just got done figuring it out.  do you see a cube or is it flat?
[21:45] <Christoz> InfoHunder in the "customize " screen...
[21:45] <adac> is there a terminal program like top that shows me the load factor of a quad core cpu?
[21:45] <PeterGriffin> pushpop: man -P /bin/cat ls
[21:45] <Svenstaro> adac, htop
[21:45] <clearzen> itaku: change the permissions of the folder where the .mp3 are stored
[21:45] <Penth> I found a tutorial that says how to install it but when I try enable PrintName it says -bash: /usr/bin/enable: No such file or directory
[21:45] <adac> Svenstaro: nice, thx
[21:45] <InfoHunteR> Christoz@ ???
[21:45] <patrick_> svenstaro, no i installed  ccsm and personalized the settings, restarted and noticed that all of my settings weren't apparent (no more cube desktop) and when i try to click on ccsm nothing ever pops up
[21:45] <Christoz> InfoHunter the only trusted device is ppo while i'm using the eth0 one
[21:45] <itaku> oh wow...
[21:45] <danand> Penth - take a look at cupsaddsmb command
[21:45] <itaku> i didnt see that one coming...
[21:45] <andre_pl> q
[21:46] <Svenstaro> adac, a bit careful tho, htop will display hdd load as prcoessor load, its a bit strange
[21:46] <Lamego> Penth, you just need to use the printer configuration interface, there is no need for a command line enable
[21:46] <Kumool> is there a way i can get .deb to only open with a certain app?
[21:46] <Svenstaro> patrick_, so can you tell me exactly which packages did you install then
[21:46] <Christoz> InfoHunter Actually i want to have a remote connection with a friend of mine
[21:46] <minimec> Penth: It is somehow offtopic. But you could also access your printer in the localnet with something like 'ipp://192.169.1.10:631/printers/HL-5040' for my brother laser
[21:46] <BlackChaos> i see a cube jake2point0
[21:46] <dabbill> alertup, its an optical mouse, i just switched to this mouse last night, but havent really used my computer sence i switched over.
[21:46] <adac> Svenstaro: hmm well that is really strange...i agree (:
[21:46] <jake2point0> sweet then have fun
[21:46] <rinaldi_> jake2point0: oh i see so there is no output at all, i though you meant it brought you to something alse. never mind. that would suggest that either your wireless card is not in or the .inf file isn't installed properly. Rather than doing it through the "windows wireless drivers" do ndiswrapper -i [then your .inf file path] I always find it works better like that
[21:46] <Svenstaro> adac, it works for the most part
[21:46] <Christoz> InfoHunter and this is the first time i' using it
[21:47] <adac> Svenstaro: ok...I jhust give it a try
[21:47] <InfoHunteR> Christoz@ sorry i can not help you :(
[21:47] <patrick_> svenstaro, all i did was install 7.10, did what you told me to do to install ccsm, and changed the settings, restarted and now its all f'ed up
[21:47] <Kumool> or anything if i open an archive with xarchive or something else it just opens any archive with the with that app including .debs and such
[21:47] <Penth> I don't have an interface.  This is ubuntu server version
[21:47] <BlackChaos> thx jake do u know how 2 make it a full six sided cube cause if u dont i can hlp
[21:47] <Penth> should I just install the desktop version?
[21:47] <jake2point0> im guessing you raise the horizontal rule in your options. ccsm
[21:47] <Svenstaro> patrick_, uhm I didnt advise you to install anything, I think youre confusing me. Anyway, I'll get the command
[21:48] <Christoz> Is there any channel for the ssh connection or the lokkit app?
[21:48] <Slart> I have just enabled twinview on my nvidia 8800 GTX and all of a sudden when I click a menu in ubuntu/firefox/webpage (ie almost all applications).. it takes about a second or two for that menu to open.. I'm not experiencing any other lag or slowness in the ui.. just this delay.. if I disable twinview it's back to normal..the lag is there even if I disable compiz. Does anyone recognize these symptoms? is there a fix? advice?
[21:48] <adac> Svenstaro: well it is fine...it was indeed what I was looking for
[21:48] <jake2point0> well now i have to figure out my path to the drivers on my desktop.
[21:48] <Christoz> Is there any channel for the ssh connection or the lokkit app?
[21:49] <dabbill> i have haveing problems finding info on enabling a swap partition. Any one got a link for how to do it in ubuntu?
[21:49] <BlackChaos> while in the compiz general settings go to desktop size and in the bottom adjust the 1 to a six
[21:49] <Slart> dabbill: swapon doesn't work?
[21:49] <Flare183> !who | BlackChaos
[21:49] <ubotu> BlackChaos: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :)
[21:49] <jake2point0> is that what did it blackchaos?
[21:49] <danand> Christoz - if your running ubuntu just ask here, or in ubuntu-offtopic
[21:49] <Slart> Christoz: I would say this channel is one place to ask ssh related questions.. depending on what the issue is.. of course
[21:50] <BlackChaos> yes jake2point0
[21:50] <xim> windows is supposed to be able to read vfat right?
[21:50] <patrick_> svenstaro, any idea on what to do?
[21:50] <Christoz> Slart @ alright..
[21:50] <Slart> xim: yes... afaik
[21:50] <Flare183> !windows | xim
[21:50] <rinaldi_> jake2point0: i just drag and drop the .inf file after entering the first bit
[21:50] <BlackChaos> um how do i do that ubotu
[21:50] <ubotu> xim: For discussion and help with Microsoft Windows, please visit ##windows. See http://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bug/1 http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm and /msg ubotu equivalents
[21:50] <Christoz> Slart  Actually i want to have a remote connection with a friend of mine
[21:50] <dabbill> Slart, not sure if it worked, and dont know how to make it come on at startup
[21:50] <Svenstaro> patrick_, as a normal user, please run compiz --replace
[21:50] <Svenstaro> patrick_, in X of course, in a normal terminal
[21:50] <BlackChaos> how do i talk 2 a specific person u said 2 put their name in the i say???
[21:51] <Flare183> !tab | BlackChaos
[21:51] <Slart> Christoz: what's the purpose of the connection? file sharing? desktop sharing? something else?
[21:51] <Christoz> slart ...and i'm using the lokkit ap
[21:51] <ubotu> BlackChaos: You can use <tab> for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line.
[21:51] <Roooty> Hi how do I turn off the drum sound at the login screen? I can't find it anywhere
[21:51] <Christoz> slart desktop sharing
[21:51] <Slart> dabbill: is the swap defined in the fstab?
[21:51] <dabbill> Slart nope
[21:51] <Christoz> slart or both if possible
[21:51] <xim> i have this external drive that im getting ntfs off of because xp wont eject a HD likes its a removable device and linux wont mount an ntfs device that wasnt unmounted
[21:51] <lordleemo> BlackChaos: type the first initial of the persons name then hit your tab key
[21:51] <patrick_> svenstaro, im in normal terminal right now, sorry  for being a noob, what do i type in
[21:51] <Slart> Christoz: I'm not familiar with that app.. are you trying to tunnel it through ssh for securit reasons?
[21:52] <Svenstaro> patrick_ without quotes: "compiz --replace"
[21:52] <Slart> dabbill: that would be one thing to try.. hang on.. I'll see what my fstab says..
[21:52] <eighty> errr... i have apache2 installed... but i can't access my machine from another computer. what should i check?
[21:52] <xim> so i used mkdosfs -F 32 -I /dev/sdg
[21:52] <dabbill> Slart, dont know how it is suppose to look in fstab :)
[21:52] <xim> but it made it vfat and windows doesnt see it
[21:52] <Penth> will ubuntu run ok with 512mb ram?
[21:52] <patrick_> svenstaro, i did that nothing happened really
[21:52] <Svenstaro> patrick_, well, did compiz activate?
[21:52] <rinaldi_> Penth: yes
[21:53] <gleaken> having a problem with FireFox stalling on rendering pages.  TCP/IP is working fine because all other TCP/IP apps have no problem communicating.  The stalling sometimes can be averted with a refresh.  Sometimes I have to restart Firefox.  Seems to have happened after the last kernel update.  Reverting back to 2.0.0.3 seems to have helped, but it still occurs
[21:53] <Slart> dabbill: this is the line in my fstab       UUID=da19e64e-3350-42dd-b705-d0915a82c780 none swap sw 0 0
[21:53] <InfoHunteR> penth @ yes
[21:53] <eighty> i also have ssh-server installed, and i can't access that either. :|
[21:53] <clearzen> xim: you are trying to create a partition right?
[21:53] <xim> well actually the whole drive
[21:53] <Slart> dabbill: you can get the uuid of your partition using sudo blkid
[21:53] <rinaldi_> Penth: im running on 128
[21:53] <Christoz> slart no ...actually it's a way to have remote desktop
[21:53] <danand> Roooty - system -> admin -> login window then accesibility tab
[21:53] <Slart> !uuid
[21:53] <ubotu> To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell: « sudo blkid » (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID)
[21:53] <ulo> hi folks!  is there a CLI command to get a video settings dump such as contrast settings?
[21:53] <patrick_> svenstaro, nope
[21:53] <patrick_> same situation as before
[21:53] <Christoz> slart i was googling ...
[21:53] <xim> its too big to format in xp (only formats up to 32gig but reads more)
[21:53] <clearzen> xim: use fdisk and parted if you want to do it from the cli
[21:53] <dabbill> Slart, yea just wasnt sure for the none / 0 0 parts of it :)
[21:53] <Svenstaro> gleaken, I recently had the same problem, try defaulting firefox compteley and creating a new profile
[21:53] <Christoz> and that way occured
[21:53] <s0laris> hi
[21:53] <dabbill> Slart, thanks :)
[21:53] <Penth> wow.  I'm gonna run it in a VM, just don't want to put more than I need to.
[21:53] <RoCUnreal> is there a python programming channel?
[21:53] <Svenstaro> patrick_, that is strange indeed, hang on
[21:53] <BlackChaos> jake2point0: did u get it
[21:53] <Pici> RoCUnreal: #python
[21:53] <patrick_> okay
[21:53] <Christoz> slart so can you help us?
[21:54] <gleaken> Svenstaro: you think that may be it?
[21:54] <Slart> Christoz: I'm not sure you need the ssh part... if lokkit doesn't require it.. but you could always try vnc
[21:54] <xim> clearzen, is there a program in linux that can format to traditional fat32?
[21:54] <Svenstaro> gleaken, yes I had exactly the same problem, say, are you using fasterfox?
[21:54] <rinaldi_> Penth: yes if you want it to run fast 512 is good
[21:54] <gleaken> Svenstaro: no
[21:54] <Lamego> xim, mfks.fat32
[21:54] <eighty> in general, if you can't remotely access a machine (port 80, 22), what could be the problem?
[21:54] <Christoz> slart i've tried vnc but the connection times out
[21:54] <clearzen> xim: yes. cfdisk, fdisk, and parted gparted
[21:54] <eighty> i'm stumped. :(
[21:54] <gleaken> Svenstaro: I tried installing swift fox just to see
[21:54] <Svenstaro> patrick_ try "sudo apt-get install compiz compizconfig-settings-manager "
[21:54] <xim> k ill try those thanks
[21:54] <clearzen> xim: gparted is gui program I recommend using that
[21:55] <dabbill> Hurm my mouse seems to be running smooth now. Guess ubuntu finally reconfigured it self or some thing for the new mouse :)
[21:55] <Christoz> slart lokkit is a tool to config your iptables
[21:55] <Slart> Christoz: ah.. lokkit is a firewall configuration app.. at least according to google..
[21:55] <Lamego> eighty, in general or the services are not running, or you are behind a router and need to configure port forwarding, or you dont have network connectivity between your client and server systems
[21:55] <Roooty> danand: Thanks! That's exactly it:DDD
[21:55] <ulo> Is there a CLI command to get a video settings dump such as contrast settings?
[21:55] <Christoz> slart that's seems to me too
[21:55] <RoCUnreal> how do i get to #python?
[21:55] <Slart> Christoz: so.. you've tried a regular vnc server and client.. and it didn't work.. who's running the server part?
[21:55] <eighty> Lamego: network connectivity is confirmed. services are running. and there's no router.
[21:55] <Slart> RoCUnreal: /join #python
[21:56] <Christoz> slart the other :)
[21:56] <Lamego> eighty, can you ping the server ?
[21:56] <eighty> Lamego: yep.
[21:56] <RoCUnreal> slart, #python doesn't work :/
[21:56] <patrick_> svenstaro, already newest version and now i have no window bars
[21:56] <Slart> Christoz: ok.. is the server machine behind some kind of router? does it have an ip in the 192.168.X.X range?
[21:56] <eighty> well... i can't ping the server from another server, sorry
[21:56] <ConstyXIV> what's the chances of something from backports killing your system?
[21:56] <Svenstaro> patrick_ type "metacity --replace"
[21:56] <RoCUnreal> at first it tried #python but
[21:56] <Christoz> slart yep
[21:56] <clearzen> ConstyXIV: very small
[21:56] <Lamego> eighty, then you have a network config or connection problem
[21:56] <Slart> RoCUnreal: it worked here.. what do you mean it doesn't work?
[21:57] <RoCUnreal> i am running Xchat
[21:57] <eighty> Lamego: should i look in /etc/network/interfaces?
[21:57] <patrick_> svenstaro, window bars are back but as for compiz same situation
[21:57] <Slart> Christoz: then you need to forward some ports to the vnc server machine.. what kind of router is running at the server end?
[21:57] <Lamego> eighty, yes, make sure your interfaces are properly configured
[21:57] <eighty> it must be a network config problem.
[21:57] <RoCUnreal> Slart, idk it just doesn't do anything
[21:57] <distatica> Hi folks. I have a dual boot laptop, windows XP and the latest ubuntu. When I visit a local cafe with windows, and connect to the wifi, then open a browser, it automatically fowards me to the router to enter a special code for net access. When I do it under ubuntu I just get server not found errors.
[21:57] <Christoz> slart it's a siemens speed stream (hope you want harm though)
[21:57] <distatica> I tried ot copy the address windows was redirecting to, and use that on ubuntu, but same thing server not found
[21:57] <RoCUnreal> Slart, ived joined many channels before this is strange
[21:57] <PeterGriffin> RoCUnreal: proberly you have to register your irc nick on freenode or somethinh
[21:57] <Slart> RoCUnreal: what happens when you type /join #python  any errors at all? or it just disappears and then nothing?
[21:57] <distatica> any ideas what could be going on?
[21:58] <Bizzeh> if i have 20gb free on my system drive, will ubuntu detect that vista is on the drive, and add boot stuff for that to grub
[21:58] <Christoz> slart 4200
[21:58] <patrick_> svenstaro, i think my trying to install kiba dock screwed things up. if i reinstall gutsy that should fix it right?
[21:58] <PeterGriffin> Bizzeh: es
[21:58] <PeterGriffin> yes
[21:58] <RoCUnreal> Slart, Griffin seems like he has the answer i had this problem before
[21:58] <Slart> Christoz: hmm.. then you'll have to find out how to forward ports on that thing.. it probably has some kind of web-configuration thingy..
[21:59] <RoCUnreal> Slart, the Python channel is on Freenode?
[21:59] <Svenstaro> patrick_ Yes definately, tho you never should have to reinstall gutsy, a clean uninstallation of compiz should do the trick, type "sudo apt-get remove compiz --purge"
[21:59] <RoCUnreal> Slart, or is it on this Ubuntu server?
[21:59] <eighty> Lamego: see any probs with this interface config? http://rafb.net/p/UYizcE94.html
[21:59] <Slart> RoCUnreal: check your tabs.. there is one tab for the server if I remember correctly.. check for error messages there
[21:59] <Svenstaro> patrick_, after that, install compiz again and hope
[21:59] <s0laris> hello; i have in netbeans 2 .javanow i want to call the other app?
[21:59] <lorenzo_> hi, how do i make vlc my default media player? I have tried entering VLC into the box in favourite apps, but it wont work
[21:59] <Bizzeh> PeterGriffin: so gibbon will detect vista and still allow me to boot to it?
[21:59] <Integration> distatica, does your wireless connection show as connected?
[21:59] <Slart> RoCUnreal: it's on the freenode server
[21:59] <distatica> Integration: yes
[21:59] <Christoz> slart i know what protocols should i choose at first and secondly the ports (i've already know)
[21:59] <distatica> and I have an ip
[21:59] <jake2point0> rinaldi i did the lspci -n to find out the pciid
[21:59] <distatica> just can't make a connection out until I auth with that router
[22:00] <Lamego> eighty, I can't help you understanding your own networking config, it depends on your own network settings :(
[22:00] <Christoz> slart this is a question sorry
[22:00] <RoCUnreal> PeterGriffin, how do i register?
[22:00] <Slart> Christoz: hmmm.. hang on.. I don't know this by heart.. I'll brb
[22:00] <Svenstaro> patrick_, also check https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/CompizFusion
[22:00] <eighty> Lamego: my settings are static ip with netmask and gateway. no firewalls. no routers. are there other configs to check? :}
[22:00] <PeterGriffin> Roconda: http://freenode.net/faq.shtml
[22:01] <tieTYT> could anyone look at my iptables and tell me why i can access my website internally but not externally?  http://pastebin.com/m4cf39785
[22:01] <eighty> sorry... i'm such a network wannbie.
[22:01] <patrick_> svenstaro it didnt work, i think i screwed everything trying to install kiba-dock. im going to install gutsy again. il be on here afterwards, thanks for your efforts
[22:01] <RoCUnreal_> nvm peter
[22:01] <Svenstaro> patrick_, okay patrick sorry I couldnt help, good luck
[22:01] <patrick_> thanks
[22:01] <Jack_Sparrow> Patrick
[22:01] <Jack_Sparrow> stop for one sec
[22:01] <Svenstaro> Jack_Sparrow, hes out
[22:01] <PeterGriffin> sry RoCUnreal_ ,,. its : http://www.wikihow.com/Register-a-User-Name-on-Freenode  maybe better..
[22:02] <jake2point0> rinaldi i did the lspci -n to find out the pciid i have no idea what numbers equal my wireless nic card
[22:02] <clearzen> tieTYT: do you have the port 80 forwarded on your router?
[22:02] <yowshi> ummmm i was mucking about with the permissions of one of my folders and now i cant seem to sudo it says sudo: can't open /etc/sudoers: Permission denied
[22:02] <yowshi> how do i fix this
[22:02] <tieTYT> clearzen: you mean the physical router?
[22:02] <clearzen> tieTYT:yep
[22:02] <Jack_Sparrow> http://linuxfud.wordpress.com/2007/02/14/how-to-reset-ubuntugnome-settings-to-defaults-without-re-installing/       may have fixed that
[22:02] <tieTYT> clearzen: that's the problem, my boss is not here.  I'm not even sure if this has one
[22:02] <Lamego> eighty, you just need to make sure both servers have IPs from the same subnet, same netmask, same gateway
[22:02] <tieTYT> so i'd like to know if i've done everything i should need to in iptables at least
[22:02] <RoCUnreal_> gotta leave this channel to do it ^^
[22:02] <RoCUnreal_> peace
[22:03] <yowshi> jack was that for me?
[22:03] <Jack_Sparrow> patrick
[22:03] <clearzen> tieTYT: have you had anyone try from ouside the local network? I'm not sure you can access your public address from your local net
[22:03] <Slart> Christoz: vnc usually runs on port 5900+display number.. so ports 5901, 5902 etc.. and I think it's a tcp connection
[22:03] <Svenstaro> Jack_Sparrow, patricks out
[22:03] <rinaldi_> jake2point0: you don't need to know it, i used ndiswrapper -i +the .inf file, then did modprobe ndiswrapper and it works fine.
[22:03] <Jack_Sparrow> understood
[22:03] <Christoz> slart ok i'll check this out brb ...
[22:04] <tieTYT> clearzen: i've been using the site: http://downforeveryoneorjustme.com/
[22:04] <Slart> Christoz: if you're running the vnc server on a ubuntu/linux machine you can run this in a terminal and see what port it's using.. "netstat -lptn"
[22:05] <clearzen> tieTYT: I think you need to forward port 80 on your hardware router
[22:05] <Slart> Christoz: but vnc doesn't normally share the desktop that is shown to the local user.. it shares a brand new desktop.. there is a client that shares the current X desktop.. I think it's called X11vnc or something like that
[22:05] <jake2point0> rinaldi i did the modprobe ndiswrapper and got another prompt with no data
[22:05] <Slart> Christoz: here's a short guide.. http://www.ubuntu-unleashed.com/2007/10/setup-vnc-server-for-ubuntu-gutsy.html
[22:06] <PeterGriffin> Bizzeh: make a backup from your mbr first, so you can always go back if you want
[22:06] <Bob_Dole> Oh god..a chuck norris widget for OS X...
[22:06] <Christoz> slart thank you brb
[22:06] <Fishscene> I find it hilarous that http://downforeveryoneorjustme.com/ isn't loading for me :P
[22:06] <docta_v> anyone here have experience with opteron HE processors
[22:06] <Ruroni> halp.
[22:06] <docta_v> i have a system with 2218 HEs
[22:06] <jake2point0> rinaldi the hardware information tool sees it and identifies it.  but its not listed as a device available to join a network
[22:06] <docta_v> shows up at 1000 mhz in /proc/cpuinfo
[22:06] <docta_v> but they are 2.6ghz procs
[22:06] <clearzen> tieTYT: is the address you gave me the address of your site?
[22:07] <jake2point0> whats up with the fact that we got a GG 64 bit os but it cant even support my nforce 410 chipset for sata hard drives!
[22:08] <rinaldi_> jake2point0: yes that activates the driver if it installed, no output is good. check ndiswrapper -l to see if the driver installed. if it doesn't it might be that you have the wring driver..
[22:08] <jake2point0> just like my wireless nic card... it sees it, identifies it correctly but dont work
[22:08] <Slart> I have just enabled twinview on my nvidia 8800 GTX and all of a sudden when I click a menu in ubuntu/firefox/webpage (ie almost all applications).. it takes about a second or two for that menu to open.. I'm not experiencing any other lag or slowness in the ui.. just this delay.. if I disable twinview it's back to normal..the lag is there even if I disable compiz. Does anyone recognize these symptoms? is there a fix? advice?
[22:09] <PeterGriffin> docta_v: maybe dynamic cpu schaling ?
[22:09] <PeterGriffin> scaling*
[22:09] <yowshi> no the how to reset gnome didnt fix my sudoers problem
[22:09] <docta_v> yeah i figured something like that
[22:09] <docta_v> i'd just like to confirm either way
[22:09] <docta_v> since this is a production system supporting 9 million users :)
[22:09] <PeterGriffin> docta_v: do you have : /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/ file like that ?
[22:09] <PeterGriffin> docta_v: nice :)
[22:09] <cschneid_> How do I set the default resolution in X without using gnome?  I'm using xmonad, so I'd like to just do it from the config file and be done with it
[22:10] <Integration> distatica, run this command: lspci | grep Eth
[22:10] <PeterGriffin> docta_v: simultanoius ;) ?
[22:10] <docta_v> PeterGriffin: ah yea i do
[22:10] <docta_v> awesome thanks
[22:10] <PeterGriffin> docta_v: np
[22:10] <distatica> Integration: that would require a reboot, what am I looking for specifically?
[22:10] <docta_v> cpuinfo_max_freq -> 2600000
[22:10] <clearzen> yowshi: log in recovery mode and then chmod 0640 /etc/sudoers
[22:10] <docta_v> so that's perfect
[22:10] <PeterGriffin> docta_v: ok, i think you can cpu-freq-selector like that
[22:10] <docta_v> PeterGriffin: not simultaneously thankfully
[22:11] <yowshi> chmod 0640?
[22:11] <PeterGriffin> docta_v:  :) but its nice to run ubuntu on it !
[22:11] <archangelpetro> has anyone here installed codeblocks?
[22:11] <docta_v> 9 million per month
[22:11] <docta_v> PeterGriffin: sadly this system is CentOS... our web farm and search farm is ubuntu
[22:11] <docta_v> this system is a database
[22:11] <docta_v> mysql enterprise doesn't provide debian packages
[22:11] <docta_v> we were going to run ubuntu until we ran up against that
[22:12] <clearzen> yowshi: sorry I mean 0440
[22:12] <Integration> distatica, i'm trying to determine what type of wireless card you are using
[22:12] <PeterGriffin> docta_v: :)
[22:12] <docta_v> i asked first in #centos

[22:16] <itaku> whats a good program to broadcast over shoutcast servers on ubuntu?
[22:17] <Svenstaro> itaku, icecast
[22:17] <tieTYT> if i use iptables -L, does that tell me the CURRENT rules?
[22:17] <Svenstaro> itaku, as long as you dont video, thats where it gets tricky
[22:17] <tieTYT> or could i still need a restart for those to take effect?
[22:17] <itaku> it works for shoutcast?
[22:17] <Svenstaro> yes
[22:18] <clearzen> tieTYT: yeah, route will tell you routing info as well
[22:18] <itaku> is there one i can get off of apt-get?
[22:18] <tieTYT> i apparently don't have that comment
[22:18] <Svenstaro> itaku, apt-get install icecast
[22:18] <itaku> tried
[22:18] <tieTYT> clearzen: a little ambiguous.  You are saying if it's in iptables -L, it's taking effect?
[22:18] <Svenstaro> itaku, apt-get install icecast2, sorry
[22:18] <clearzen> tieTYT: sorry I'm at work
[22:18] <tieTYT> np
[22:19] <clearzen> tieTYT: -L lists the rules
[22:19] <Svenstaro> itaku, http://howtoforge.com/linux_webradio_with_icecast2_ices2
[22:19] <tieTYT> i'm trying to figure out if saved the iptables rules correctly.  If i see them in -L does that mean i did?
[22:19] <yowshi> the chmod thing didnt work
[22:20] <clearzen> tieTYT: it means they are currently active
[22:20] <tieTYT> ok thanks
[22:20] <tieTYT> that's a little odd to me.  That means that iptables -A ... immedately takes effect, huh?
[22:20] <yowshi> i was mucking about with the permissions of one of my folders and now i cant seem to sudo it says sudo: can't open /etc/sudoers: Permission denied
[22:21] <clearzen> tieTYT: correct, any changes you make are immedate
[22:21] <clearzen> tieTYT: you can sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart to make sure if you want
[22:21] <PeterGriffin> yowshi: what are the permissions of /etc/sudoers ?
[22:21] <tieTYT> clearzen: ok thanks a lot
[22:22] <yowshi> well when i tried to sudo something it said it should be 0440
[22:22] <PeterGriffin> yowshi: yes, it should by 0440
[22:22] <yowshi> i am not sure how to check what they are currentkly but the chmod 0640 didnt work
[22:22] <PeterGriffin> yowshi: check with: ls -l /etc/sudoers

[22:23] <yowshi> see when it said it shoul;d be 0440 i tried tio chmod 0440 it but that didnt work either
[22:23] <molV500> hi, anybody here who can help me with gutsy & tsclient?
[22:23] <Lamego> it is 0440 already, as per your ls
[22:24] <clearzen> yowshi: what did it tell you when you chmoded it to 0440?
[22:24] <yowshi> teamspeak?
[22:24] <yowshi> it just says permission denied now
[22:25] <Lamego> yowshi, have you chmoded /usr/bin/sudo by mistake ?

[22:26] <Dr_willis> yowshi,  only root can  look at that file

[22:27] <genii> Lamego: "no such file or directory" indicates it's not present
[22:27] <Dr_willis> makes sence. that only the root user, can do such things. passwd file is also protected. and many others in /etc
[22:27] <Lamego> genii, Permission returned is not return for non existing files :)
[22:27] <Lamego> erm, Permission denied
[22:27] <yowshi> i could try to log back into buntu as root
[22:27] <yowshi> ubuntu*
[22:27] <zagabog> yowshi: you could boot with a livecd mount the disk and modify the permissions back to what they should be
[22:27] <Dr_willis> yowshi,  or you could use the sudo command...
[22:28] <yowshi> i cant use sudo but my failsafe password stil;l works
[22:28] <genii> Lamego: Ah I see now he cut and pasted including the comment from the helper
[22:28] <Dr_willis> but ive only gotten in on the tail end of this discussion.

[22:32] <tg[fx]> hi
[22:32] <Pici> CJS3141: Depends what program you installed. It may be on your Applications Menu, it may be a cli program that you need to use your terminal for.
[22:33] <yowshi> with the exception of the X 2 and the size my file looks just like hisa
[22:33] <CJS3141> Pici: Yes, so how do I figure that out?
[22:33] <Pici> CJS3141: What program did you install?
[22:33] <minimec> CJS3141: You may find it in the menu editor 'alt+f2 alacarte'
[22:34] <CJS3141> Pici: I installed "kwireless", a wireless network tool.
[22:34] <merlin_> §/
[22:34] <merlin_> §/
[22:34] <CJS3141> minimec: I couldn't find it with alacarte--not in any of the menus I think.
[22:35] <itaku> http://pastebin.ca/949631 how do i fix that
[22:35] <Capablanka> When you can ping "aol.com" but can't browser it in Firefox what can be happening?
[22:36] <PeterGriffin> Capablanka: dns problem ?

[22:36] <minimec> CJS3141: Is that a GUI application? What happens if you start it in a terminal like 'kwi<tab>'?
[22:36] <Capablanka> [PeterGriffin] Don't think so, because when I ping the name is resolved to the IP
[22:36] <itaku> http://pastebin.ca/949631 how do i fix that
[22:36] <Pici> CJS3141: kwirelessmonitor?
[22:37] <CJS3141> Pici: yes, I think kwirelessmonitor is the correct name, sorry.

[23:01] <Jamie> hey anyoneknow how to configuure ubuntu for utc
[23:01] <theseus> sven_oostenbrink: thanks!
[23:01] <kitche> itaku: btw it's port 8001 not 8000 it's a bug with the xmms-liveice plugin

[23:03] <ubotu> leetdood: 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
[23:04] <leetdood> thanks

[23:04] <ubotu> leetdood: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[23:04] <xjkx> Scunizi: oh, my search was not with gui, but with apt-search. on the gui its there, wtf...

[23:04] <unop_> leetdood, you should be able to do both
[23:04] <yowshi> i need help resetting my sudo. it keeps saying permission to sudoers denied
[23:05] <unop_> xjkx, apt-search has some limitations - you could use aptitude search instead
[23:06] <Black_Magic> Is there an Emulator that will boot of USB?
[23:06] <Get_A_Fix> ompaul; - a little patience goes a long way. That fixed it. Thank you.

[23:07] <Roooty> Hi, Ubuntu or Gnome (or something)  rescans my external hard drive everytime I boot the computer. This is a new an unwanted feature, can anyone advise please?
[23:07] <yowshi> i am npt sure whats supposed to be in that file and such
[23:08] <yowshi> so i dont know how to edit it
[23:08] <ere4si> Roooty: is rsync running?
[23:08] <Scunizi> xjkx, you may also be able to use aptitude which is like synaptic but for the terminal
[23:08] <kitche> Rooty: umm you just have to have it so gnome does not auto mount stuff
[23:08] <unop_> yowshi, http://www.go2linux.org/sudoers-how-to
[23:09] <yusuo> how my installation through sypnatic crashed and now it wont let me install anything
[23:09] <Jack_Sparrow> Roooty, Is fsck detecking a problem in there or is it detecting an improper removal or shutdown on that drive?
[23:09] <yusuo> i know theres a command to get it to continue with previous installations just cant remember
[23:09] <nite613> I've got an nvidia card and I'm trying to have it display the same thing on both screens ("Clone"). I've read about twinvew, but it seems to be the opposite (one destop spanning both). Where should I be looking?
[23:09] <nite613> Can't figure out the xorg.cnf magic for cloned screens
[23:10] <Roooty> ere4si: rsync isn't running, that is another problem
[23:10] <anaxagorus> hey, can anyone tell me how i can view all ports in use with netstat
[23:10] <itaku> kitche, when i hit play on xmms it connects to the server then crashes... how do i fix that
[23:10] <ido-> how can i upgrade my kde4 on ubuntu to the latest build ?
[23:10] <ido-> without building it manually
[23:10] <Pelo> ido-, ask in #kubuntu or in #kde
[23:10] <Roooty> Jack_Sparrow: fsck detects that the boot sector and it's backup don't match when booting the computer, but that is it. I'm pretty sure it's a setting thing but I could be wrong
[23:11] <yusuo> how do i continue with a crashed installation its says already in use but its not
[23:11] <unop_> anaxagorus, netstat -atn
[23:11] <TheRealJeanLuc> Hello, I seem to have a problem. A colleague installed Kubuntu 7.10 on a machine using the OEM install. When we later repurposed the machine as a server, I just kep the existing OEM install. Anyway, the machine locked up during the OEM cnfigure process and had to be reset. Now, when you boot it up, you get a message saying "Error while authenticating oem". It doesn't seem to actually cause any problems, the only reason I'm not just ignoring it is
[23:11] <TheRealJeanLuc>  that it stops the boot process until you click OK, and this machine is managed remotely most of the time.
[23:11] <anaxagorus> unop_: thanks!
[23:11] <xjkx> unop_: i like apt-get better. i think i am missing a repository with restricted softwares there :p
[23:12] <anaxagorus> o.k. i am confused -- netstat -atn doesn't show anything on port 8000
[23:12] <Pelo> TheRealJeanLuc, is this a system 76 or a dell machine ? because that,s the only place where ubuntu comes as OEM as far as I know
[23:12] <poseidon> I want to partition my disk so that I can install ubuntu, and keep windows.  Can someone lead me in the right direction?  I have already downloaded the install cd.
[23:13] <unop_> xjkx, doesnt make sense, if you've updated apt recently -- both synaptic and apt-get should report the same information
[23:13] <yusuo> poseidon, it'll be easier to get rid of windows and install both at same time
[23:13] <TheRealJeanLuc> we installed Kubuntu on it ourselves, but we used the OEM install because it was going to be distributed to another department.
[23:13] <Pelo> poseidon, fist defrag your hdd a few times, then , boot the install cd , during the lnstallation when asked chose guided partitonning , you will be walked throught it
[23:13] <PeterGriffin> poseidon: you can use gparted from the live cd
[23:14] <Pelo> TheRealJeanLuc, ic, I'm not realy familiar with that proceedure however
[23:14] <bazhang> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBootHowTo poseidon
[23:14] <Pelo> TheRealJeanLuc, do a search on the error msg in the forum www.ubuntuforums.org
[23:14] <yusuo> sypnatics locked me out

[23:16] <owlchild> well... i'm in need of some people that know what there doing when it comes to ubuntu
[23:16] <Pelo> yusuo,so I assume that synaptic itself opens fine and it just won't finish installing those packages you asked for earlier ?
[23:16] <unop__> yusuo, whats the exact error message you get?
[23:16] <mad_max02> owlchild, then ur in the wrong place
[23:16] <owlchild> I'm having trouble controlling my cpu

[23:17] <itaku> kitche, when i hit play on xmms it connects to the server then crashes... how do i fix that
[23:17] <Pelo> yusuo, you have another instance or synaptic running or add/remove  , close them
[23:17] <yusuo> pelo no i dont
[23:17] <xjkx> unop_ that`s only because mplayer doesn`t seem to be a supported package. On applications->add/remove, i have options like "show: supported applications, all available applications" when i pick show only supported, mplayer does not apppear, just like my apt-cache search mplayer. but when i pick show all applications, it is there, on apititude. mplayer is not showing because its like not supported or something
[23:17] <Pelo> yusuo, check the system monitor

[23:18] <ubotu> owlchild: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[23:18] <unop__> xjkx, beats me, i dont use synaptic anyway - quite pointless imo

[23:19] <totalhealth> I need some help burning a CD using Ubuntu 7.10, am I in the right place?

[23:20] <totalhealth> I am trying to burn an ISO, I right click on it and select Write to Disk, it pops up a window and says it is done, but nothing ever was written to the disk.
[23:21] <shawnharn> then get another program
[23:21] <shawnharn> to write it
[23:21] <xjkx> unop_ i got it now. i have to enable the restricted softwares inside apititute, and it edits my sources.list and only then i can install from apt-get, lol. it added this: deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu gutsy-security main restricted multiverse. Thanks for your patience.
[23:21] <Pelo> totalhealth, install one of the two pakcages I mentionned,  thenuse the image burning option in the tool menu , for either
[23:21] <itaku> when i hit play on xmms it connects to the server then crashes... how do i fix that
[23:22]  * Pelo should realy make some dinner
[23:22] <minimec> owlchild: gnome-control-center >> Energy managment... I guess

[23:23] <unop__> Roooty, it could be tracker/beagle (or whatever you use) indexing the drive .. you could edit preferences and omit the drive/mount point
[23:24] <tinsin> irc.7chan.org
[23:24] <Roooty> Pelo: no, It has to render or map the drive (not sure how to describe it) It is mounted but inaccessable. It may be Gnome not linux

I wanted to that so I could make my Windows look like Vista & whatnot, where they are transparent and things. I searched Synaptics Package Manager and found nothing, anyone able to help with this?

[23:36] <genii> patrick_: sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager
[23:36] <PeterGriffin> Wolfan: if you have a clean partition, the install process should go painless.
[23:36] <Super_Napalm> do i not have voice or something?
[23:36] <unop__> yowshi, you need to drop back into rescue mode and issue this command (as root) -- chmod 4755 /usr/bin/sudo

[23:42] <Cowlol> Hey, I'm already downloading the alternate CD (on dial-up - -) but I was wondering if you guys have ideas that I could try with the liveCD: It freezes while 'Loading Linux Kernel' after I select the first or second option from the boot menu. I tried removing splash, quiet, and adding noapic among others, and while they sometime get me through that often times they don't. Any ideas?
[23:42] <Kopfgeldjaeger> n8
[23:43] <worldwide> Cowlol: i had this problem too
[23:43] <MUS4SHIII> anyone have any experience with mythtvfs

[23:43] <worldwide> Cowlol: are you trying to install in a notebook or something?
[23:43] <minimec> Scunizi: I guess you have to adapt the country settings ;)
[23:43] <Cowlol> worldwide: how did you fix it? (assuming you did)
[23:43] <Scunizi> minimec, thanks.. I'll go at it from there.
[23:43] <carlzenox> help D:
[23:44] <Roooty> Hi, how do I remove a package from the install list? I've decided not to update
[23:44] <worldwide> Cowlol: try noapic nolapic nosmp
[23:44] <Cowlol> worldwide: yeah, an acer with core 2 duo
[23:44] <genii> Cowlol: When it freezes hit alt-f4 to go see the output of what it's trying to do and then it may be enlightening.
[23:44] <Coolguy64537> pelo:
[23:44] <dai1313> i had that problem too, i took the raw disk image to another computer and burned it there
[23:44] <dai1313> and it worked

[23:44] <MUS4SHIII> anyone know of a good desklet for Evolution calendars and tasks?

[23:44] <carlzenox> i was installing updates then i went out with my family and i came home the computer froze i turned it off and i turn it back on and now its in low graphics mode
[23:45] <Cowlol> genii and wobblyw1: alt-f4 and nosmp are new ideas, I'll try them the next time I reboot
[23:45] <minimec> Scunizi: Backup the old xorg.conf...
[23:45] <Scunizi> minimec, oh yea.. been there done that .. learned the hard way. :)
[23:45] <carlzenox> can someone help me D:
[23:45] <genii> Cowlol: another option to try could be notsc      which disables time stamp counter on some dual or multi-core cpus
[23:45] <Odd-rationale> !ask | carlzenox
[23:45] <ubotu> carlzenox: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-)
[23:46] <minimec> Scunizi: Evryone does ;)
[23:46] <Scunizi> minimec, it sticks better that way
[23:46] <MUS4SHIII> I'm debating whether or not to tackle Office 2007 with Wine and "Outlook on the Desktop" or just look for an Evolution desklet.

[23:47] <Cowlol> worldwide: I tried that one, didn't help
[23:47] <dai1313> i don't like office exept for microsoft excell
[23:47] <xobius> Coolguy64537, what video card have you got?
[23:47] <worldwide> Cowlol: you should try with noapic nolapic nosmp noirqpoll
[23:47] <Coolguy64537> xobius: geforce go 6100
[23:47] <unop__> racemap, date -s needs to be like this - date -s "03/20/2008 12:48:00" -- so the first line must be something like   date '+%m/%d/%Y %H:%M:%S'
[23:47] <clearzen> Coolguy64537: nvidia
[23:47] <MUS4SHIII> The only app I really liked in Office was OneNote, but Evolution seems to replace Outlook just fine, but I really liked having my day's schedule pinned to the desktop.
[23:47] <Coolguy64537> yes
[23:48] <nefty> I've got an old computer that I want to turn into a file server and maybe some other stuff, so I tried installing Ubuntu 7.10 server on it.  But when it tries to boot up, I get this error message, "ISOLINUX 3.36 Debian-2007-08-30 isolinux: Image checksum error, sorry..."    I checked the md5 hash of the .iso I downloaded, and burned the cd at a slow speed, I don't know what the problem could be.
[23:48] <xobius> Coolguy64537, you can use nv or nvidia
[23:48] <sabre> hello
[23:48] <BigSisma> For libxine with nvidia accelleration?
[23:48] <clearzen> Coolguy64537: that is the driver you should use
[23:48] <Coolguy64537> there is no nvidia so use nv
[23:48] <PeterGriffin> MUS4SHIII: i use thunderbird, it has loads of plugins
[23:48] <twistedbeatfreek> how do i install my sound and video drivers
[23:48] <carlzenox> "Desktop effects cannot be enabled"
[23:48] <portamenteff> If the checksum is bad you need to redownload it.
[23:48] <xobius> Coolguy64537, if you use nvidia yu should install nvidia driver
[23:48] <racemap> unop__, date -s "HH:MM:SS" works great
[23:48] <cr4> I have a Data Server with Samba and ACL's runing with Fedora core, but I have some problems with the OS and I really want to change the OS, my problem is that I have a long "BIg" tree of files and some users and permissions, If make an other server and I change all those files I will have the same tree of permissions in ACL ?
[23:48] <nefty> I checked the md5 hash and it matched
[23:49] <BigSisma> I have nvidia driver in my xorg.conf...but when i probe xine -x xvmc .... i have one error
[23:49] <Odd-rationale> carlzenox: hcy reconfiguring
[23:49] <racemap> unop__, my problem is reading that from the file and doing date -s, i just dont have the command line skills for that, all the concatenation and stuff
[23:49] <tinman> Hmm, anyway to grab the error from a terminal ( anything it's printing in the terminal into log file)
[23:49] <tinman> ?

My Ubuntu Gutsy reports a possible damage in the battery, and says that it's capacity is only about 43%. I'm having this problem since last week. Can anybody help me about it? I don't know if it's a ACPI table problem.
[23:53] <Dr_willis_> cosmic`,  does the keyboard work in the grub menu? is it some odd keyboard? is it ps2? USB? other?
[23:53] <unop_> racemap, hmm .. you might upset a few things on your system by using incorrect times -- most notably web browsing and security

[23:54] <worldwide> gmazk_: i have this problem.. i just ignore it until i fix
[23:54] <cosmic``> Dr_willis, the keyboard works on the grub menu, although it's the fedora installation of grub. It's a ps2 british keyboard
[23:54] <wantE17style> hi, my linux server is being attacked constantly by pings of death and it is freezing fequently,how can I determine why
[23:55] <itaku> minimec, i need to open nautilus as root how can i without terminal?
[23:55] <xobius> Coolguy64537, if you don't want to use nvidia driver, you can use  sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[23:55] <kitche> wantE17style: do you mean why it's freezing?
[23:55] <yowshi> itaku root stuff normally requires a terminal
[23:55] <wantE17style> yes
[23:55] <itaku> great
[23:55] <gmazk_> worldwide: Do you know what's the origin of this problem? I have to use my notebook off the AC, and the OS turn my notebook off in a matter of 30 minutes. :-(
[23:56] <kitche> itaku: alt+f2 or just f2 forgot which one it will bring up a run dialog and type gksu nautilius

[23:58] <kraakyet> Does Ubuntu Server 7.10 come with a GUI
[23:58] <belkinhelp2> I have Ubuntu 7.10 and just installed a CMI PCI 5.1 surround sound card.  I can get sound from both the front and rear output jax.  I do NOT have any sound from the bass/center output.  Ive used alsamixer to turn these options on but no avail.  I have the latest driver install 1.0.16 i believe.  Any help will be greatly appreaciated.
[23:58] <wantE17style> please help, I am a newbie
[23:58] <unop_> yowshi, it looks like the - chmod 4755 $(which sudo)  isnt working properly
[23:58] <Jorophose> kraakyet: None of the server editions come with guis.
[23:58] <wantE17style> I don't know what else I can do
[23:58] <kitche> wantE17style: make a good firewall setup and find out what's being pinged but most likely it's a scan or a bruteforce if you have something running
[23:58] <gmazk_> Anybody in the development team here? I would like to know if it's a hardware problem.
[23:58] <yowshi> you didnt say whichsudo you just said usr/bin/sudo
[23:58] <gmazk_> Or if it's just a bug of Ubuntu Gutsy.
[23:58] <wantE17style> I think my firewall script is decent
[23:59] <wantE17style> it allows only access to certain ports
[23:59] <kitche> gmazk_: developers do not come around here really well the community ones do but not the ones you want most likely
[23:59] <wantE17style> how can I stop brute force?
[23:59] <unop_> yowshi, can you try this one more time -- drop into rescue mode -- chmod 4755 $(which sudo)  -- and note down -- ls -l $(which sudo)   .. reboot back into normal mode and   ls -l $(which sudo) again
[23:59] <dai1313> BELKINHELP, don't forget to check to see if the cable is old and damaged, move it around a bit
[23:59] <exegesis> I can't boot into Vista.  When I try it loads and then says "Startup Repair is checking system for problems.  Attempting Repairs........Repairing disk errors.  This might take over an hour to complete."  I can't cancel the thing and it never finishes.  What can I do?
[23:59] <racemap> unop__ :the file has a newline character out put from the date command, how can i remove that..i think its forcing the date to a wrong value
[23:59] <unop_> yowshi, $(which sudo) actually translates to /usr/bin/sudo
